I got a blackberry for work in 2012. It was, and still is, the lightest phone I've ever owned. A physical keyboard, decent screen, loud speaker for alarms. Perfect device for oncall. I was honestly upset to be forced onto iPhone 5.
I might have missed something, but there's only one other person in the tree, who defends OP and asks a question about the procedure. I don't see anyone making fun or a peanut gallery. Do you have to be logged in to see some posts? This does seem very tame to me.
> I wasn't making an argument about oil and gas versus solar.

I know, I'm mentioned them to demonstrate how "it's indirectly from sun energy" isn't automatically positive.

> Even more true of Nuclear

That seems like a stretch from "steady irradiance like with solar power" over to "stars death-sploding." It's a good thing the stuff we use in nuclear power wasn't formed from our sun, we aren't done with it yet.
I guess there's a bit of a negative filter for early comments on any given post: the people who respond quickly typically won't be the people who take their time to leave thoughtful comments, and the people who see the post first will be people who spend too much of their lives on Reddit.
The Motorola Droid and the few after that were the best phones ever. Yes, I rock a 13 mini now begrudgingly after the SE was killed off, but if someone made another slide keyboard i'd switch back to android.

My iPhone is a phone, music player, and sometimes maps. What I miss is a nearly full tactile keyboard in my pocket I can shell into servers, and to type without the ducks.

I know there are at least a dozen of us.
> The real Group Policy only affects computers that a local administrator explicitly joined to a domain. DHCP shouldn't have any such control since it's not trusted.

DHCP only affects computers that a local administrator configures to use DHCP. The fact that it's on by default is why turning it off is a defect -- when you want to change the DNS on all the computers on your LAN, you change the one the DHCP server gives out. If applications start ignoring this then there is no reasonable alternative way to do it.

Consider that the reason you want it to be the default is the friction to users of changing the default. Now you see the problem if someone wants to change it from Cloudflare -- only now it's even worse if you remove DHCP as a way to change it.

> But that's exactly what people are complaining that Firefox enabled.

Because it's for the user to enable, and in particular to choose which DNS server to use instead, not Mozilla.

> Once every common end-user OS has default-on DoH, then that would be better, but until then, I think individual programs using DoH on their own is a net benefit.

What you need is for consumer routers to do this rather than Mozilla. Have them give out their own address as the DNS via DHCP and then support DoH themselves.

The reason endpoint devices don't do this by default, and shouldn't, is where do they get the address of the DoH server to use, if not DHCP?
I’m currently shuttling back and forth between SF and Seattle and I would like to stay in a similar pod in Seattle though. I am currently renting $1000 per month for a room in someone’s house where I hardly stay for 50% of the time.
I wonder if there is potential to combine generative AI with low code approaches, where the non-coder would work with the AI on a higher order description of the problem (data, states, events) and the AI could generate the MVP code. It kind of seems that is the relationship we human coders have at the moment with non-coders. Maybe all those UML diagrams can finally be used as inputs.
It is the fastest I've ever gone with a game from "I love it so much, I can't stop playing it" to "I dream about it all night, and I have to stop, I feel like my brain is not getting rest at night".

This happens to me with every game eventually but with Factorio it happened so fast, I had to stop.

I'm still bummed out about that, and I want to give it another chance, but I can't be dreaming about it. I'll die.

The Android experience is IMO much better than iOS.

Apple wins on hardware and network effect.
We need to think about the role of government in regulating consumer electronics. Should the government require companies to disclose more information about the security and privacy risks of their products? Should the government ban the sale of products that pose a significant security risk?

The lack of transparency on the security details will take a toll on the consumers in the coming future.

From the KSPP recommended settings, I think the following are evil:

# Do not allow direct physical memory access (but if you must have it, at least enable STRICT mode...)
# CONFIG_DEVMEM is not set
CONFIG_STRICT_DEVMEM=y
CONFIG_IO_STRICT_DEVMEM=y

# Make sure SELinux cannot be disabled trivially.
# CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_BOOTPARAM is not set
# CONFIG_SECURITY_SELINUX_DEVELOP is not set
# CONFIG_SECURITY_WRITABLE_HOOKS is not set

# Enable "lockdown" LSM for bright line between the root user and kernel memory.
CONFIG_SECURITY_LOCKDOWN_LSM=y
CONFIG_SECURITY_LOCKDOWN_LSM_EARLY=y
CONFIG_LOCK_DOWN_KERNEL_FORCE_CONFIDENTIALITY=y

# Dangerous; enabling this allows direct physical memory writing.
# CONFIG_ACPI_CUSTOM_METHOD is not set

# Dangerous; enabling this allows direct kernel memory writing.
# CONFIG_DEVKMEM is not set

# Dangerous; exposes kernel text image layout.
# CONFIG_PROC_KCORE is not set

# Dangerous; enabling this allows replacement of running kernel.
# CONFIG_KEXEC is not set

# Dangerous; enabling this allows replacement of running kernel.
# CONFIG_HIBERNATION is not set

# Keep root from altering kernel memory via loadable modules.
# CONFIG_MODULES is not set

# But if CONFIG_MODULE=y is needed, at least they must be signed with a per-build key.
CONFIG_MODULE_SIG_FORCE=y

# Disable Model-Specific Register writes.
# CONFIG_X86_MSR is not set

# Turn off kexec, even if it's built in.
kernel.kexec_load_disabled = 1

Also, regarding this:

> And even then you likely do want your VMs (running as root) to not be able to talk to either the host or other VMs.

I want root in a VM to have full access to that VM's kernel, and that's all that these settings can stop. VMs already can't take over other VMs or the outer system without a vulnerability in the hypervisor.
I’d suggest to re-evaluate if you really, really need (a) distributed data stores and (b) synchronous consistency. Things become much simpler if you can forego one of them.
Tiled/stacked approach as others mention is good, and probably the best approach. Could also try doing an uncompressed format (even just .png uncompressed) or something simple like RLE then 7zip them together since 7zip is the only archive format that does inter-file (as opposed to intra-file) compression as far as I am aware.

Unfortunately lossless video compression won't help here as it will compress frames individually for lossless.
Stupid question. Would a block based deduplicating file system solve this?
Argentina is brimming with talent and the economic and social realities mean you need an entrepreneur mindset even to just get through with your daily life. At the same time the level of the education system is quite high and it's free to boot. The next wave of talent also speaks English at a much better level than the people before.

I knew many more people with businesses, products and side hustles there than I know in Western Europe, where lots of people live in the warm comfort of a secure, daily job and avoid any risk or opportunity outside of that.
I would still use RS-232 if I needed to connect something with it, since I still think it is good (although many of the messy things are unfortunate, but it also has many good features). If I designed a new computer, it would probably have RS-232.

I still use Usenet (and some other people still use it too), with NNTP. In fact, I started using Usenet only a few years ago. The Usenet provider named "Eternal September" is the one I currently use, and was named due to the 1993 mentioned there. I don't use Google Groups and all spam I have seen on Usenet these days comes from Google, and I hate it and some other people say similarly, that they would reject messages from Google.

I also used FidoNet, but that was longer ago, and it was with internet. (It might still be in use; I am unsure.)

Of course I know of FTP (I don't use it and I think that HTTP is much better), Gopher (I still sometimes use), etc.

Mostly ANSI terminal emulators are used today, although xterm also supports Tektronix emulation as well, although as far as I know nobody uses it these days (I have only used it once).

I know of the games before GUIs, and even still play some of those older games these days (and have written some).

Of course, I know what ASCII and UTF-8 are, although I mostly don't use UTF-8; I mostly use purely ASCII (and when needing non-ASCII, prefer character sets other than Unicode). Some of my (modern) designs do use the ASCII controls for similar meanings than their original uses. Actually, it is not only myself; even a mode in the SQLite command shell, and some other formats I have seen, are able to use the ASCII separator controls for those purposes. It is rare, but there are a few people who have made use of them.

Also, you will sometimes see notations such as "^H" and "^W" where strike through is unavailable. CTRL+G for bells is still used on terminal emulators at least what I use (and the NNTP client that I had written will use that to ring the bell once the download of a set of articles is complete). Actually, even sometimes when I play the GURPS over the computer, we will use the bell to notify the other side that we are ready.

And, of course CRLF will still be used when working with DOS programs (and, fortunately vi can be switched to CRLF or LF only mode, so this is useful when you are using it to edit DOS programs).

I have not used 36-bit computers nor punched cards, although I have used emulations of punched cards. I also dislike the syntax for octal literals in C (starting with "0o" instead of just "0" would be better, or starting with "8#" like in PostScript would be another way), although I do sometimes use octal (although it is rare; I use hexadecimal much more often, and so does everyone else).
I'm not trying to minimise the consequences of this breakout here when I say that fish protein may be the most important farmable animal protein source we have, and that compared to beef it's ecological impact is currently significantly less, if not zero. I don't think that's just about scale.

Sourcing feed for farmed salmon and tuna is a huge issue (depleting krill stocks: work to uplift insect protein I think is a way off but I would welcome being corrected) and the waste stream is an issue too.

Humans are omnivores and animal protein high in fish oil is amazingly nutritious and helps with brain growth in kids, bone strength, autoimmune problems like arthritis and rheumatism.

Chicken has the lowest impact apparently. Then fish farming.

> The team found that individuals who consumed more than three cups of coffee a day showed reduced levels of liver stiffness when lifestyle factors were considered. They also found that these same individuals experienced reduced risks associated with increased liver stiffness.

So based on this my understanding is that liver stiffness is bad and coffee consumption is good in this instance. Correct?
Nah, just go straight to Everything.
Because since we live in a post-enlightment society we believe that we should discuss everything, especially before doing something. We should be free to argue and discuss whatever whenever, but not do anything on a whim.
you could compile this with imgui to the web: https://github.com/jnmaloney/WebGui

but you'd have to write communication to your django app. I would do that in JS and then pass events to the WASM layer.

however there are react etc specific libraries as others have commented

I believe you, even though some people do not. Some people can make up many things, which can be good and bad regardless of what else they may have done. The article can be judged by itself rather than according to whatever else the author did.

(I am one who does not believe that "everyone has a threshold of gross, spiteful or violent behavior in others beyond which everything they do becomes tainted"; or, at least, it does not apply to myself.)
De jure is opposed to de facto, so saying de facto de jure doesn't make sense regardless of emphasis, hence the confusion
The other problem with low code is that the visual abstraction can often make it harder to grok. I've had the unfortunate experience of spending hours trying to click through different nodes of a moderately complex Salesforce flow to piece together WTH it's doing.

It's also impossible to diff two across revisions.

If the same solution were written in code using high level libraries it would be a few hundred lines.

I wish these low code solutions would build on top a traditional text based language and allow you to flip back and forth.
Fake meats need to be less expensive than real meat and they need to be transparent about its health impact. Without those, fake meats will be a niche product that will have 0 impact on reducing CO2. Basically a gimmick sold to people as a way to make them feel good without helping, green washing at it's best.

Nice write up and a refreshing take on building websites w/o relying too much on JS! Great experimental music too.

I've run out of free space on soundcloud, and Bandcamp is incredibly slow to upload files. So I might as well just fork this project and host the audio library myself. Kudos Cole!
A five minute, low-intensity bike ride is not going to make you sweaty or noticeably ruffle your clothing, unless you’re in an environment where simply walking would.

And as a sibling noted, foldable bikes exist and are smaller, lighter, and cheaper than this.

> In what world would it be an unpopular opinion that private information shared with a governmental organisation should stay private?

A highly politically polarized one.

My understanding is this guy disclosed Trump's tax returns to some liberal news organizations. Many people hate Trump so much that I think they'd oppose this prosecution and characterize this guys actions as a public service.

> It doesn't matter much that your LAN itself is trustworthy if the only way out of it isn't.

> Yes, you can do that, but it doesn't do anything to help with the problem that DoH solves.

Well sure it is, because if you know the ISP isn't trustworthy, then you can have your own local DNS server encrypt the DNS traffic to the upstream DNS server of your choosing.

> I want to live in a world in which you can have privacy without having to be on a VPN 24/7.

Something has to encrypt the DNS queries. Why is TLS/HTTPS any better than a VPN?

> Couldn't it host a file with the IP on a service like Dropbox or GitHub Pages? People aren't likely to block them at the firewall.

Those services will take down the page when it's hosting malware.

> Isn't this basically "privacy for computer programs is bad because malware benefits from it", which is wrong for the same reason that "privacy for people is bad because criminals benefit from it"?

The question is, privacy from who? Privacy from governments and corporations is good. Privacy from the device owner is bad.

> What's your ISP doing with all of the data they collect from your insecure DNS queries?

Nothing, when you configure your LAN or device to encrypt them.

> And if you're concerned about Cloudflare in particular, then just use some other DoH provider.

Hard-coding Cloudflare in multiple applications on multiple devices makes it arduous to do this, which is the entire criticism.
I got that from you saying “this article is nuts” in response to a statement—which you directly quoted—that “Google are bad for privacy”.

The likelihood of doing in your 20s or 30s (due to natural causes) was still relatively low. If you survived childhood expecting to live into your 50s was pretty reasonable.

Also this would seem like a highly nihilistic attitude hardly compatible with the social values of the day. I doubt this could’ve been a significant reason on a societal level.
Linux and Windows NT were also available.
I have no doubt that it will happen eventually but don't expect it to be intelligent life. It will be the leftover of microscopic life or something very small or if we are lucky it will be live microbes. ET with its own space capsule will not happen anytime soon.
I recently came across UTM when searching for a way to access a ext4 formatted SD card on macOS.

The reason you pipe exceptional events to STDERR [..]

Uh-huh. And then you get developers that do this (from inside a f#@<ing library, of all things):

FILE *stream = (level == LOGGER_LEVEL_ERROR) ? stderr : stdout;

If it's not an error, it is not exceptional, so it should go to stdout, right? Yay for personal agency!

NSA is not the world. They don’t have to comply with NSA, just don’t have US as jurisdiction.
>That's a nightmare, to me.

In the US most retail at least doesn't shut down on the weekend today. So a lot of companies having Friday off--which I see happening informally to some degree anyway (I almost never have a Friday meeting these days)--presumably wouldn't make a lot of difference. A day off in the middle of the week would mostly mean house chores for me without a real option to do a 3-day weekend which opens up a lot of possibilities.
Conversely, one wonders, perhaps in dread, how those impulses are otherwise being sublimated.
