A related thing always worth emphasizing: hashes aren't necessary cryptographically secure!

Hashing has many purposes besides security, and for that reason there are many hash libraries. If you plan on using hashes for something related to security or cryptography, you need to use a hash designed for that purpose! Yes, CRC hashing is really fast, and that's great, but it's not great when you use it for user passwords.
I suppose the root cause is that psychology is still mostly a pseudo science.
I would hope that the button would not be responsive if the plane is literally midflight, or have some failsafes to prevent exactly this kind of situation.

Obviously I'm not a pilot but I can't imagine many scenarios where a commercial flight would want to actively shutdown the engines with just a simple command while midair. But I'm willing to be corrected if thats not the case.
Agreed, I see the billionaire tax as a bandaid to the wealth inequality that unchecked capitalism inevitably creates.

Our system is built to funnel money away from the average worker and towards the top of management. Over time the boss wages grow and the labor wages shrink relative to the cost of living due to the incentives of those making the rules at the top.

This solution seems crude, it takes a slice of money off the top to relieve the tax burden for those at the bottom. It doesn't fix the root cause of inequality but at least it's a patch.

Just new reasons for probable cause, with the same goal: to write tickets and make arrests. I don't want to say all, but many (and in places, most) traffic stops are about hitting quotas and not about public safety.
I've seen meta studies that suggest talk therapy reduces suicide risk by about 25-percent.

That's obviously significant, especially in terms of the cost of a down airliner, but I'm also a bit dubious that it's the most effective here. It seems like screening could be more effective in preventing needless death, even if there are some controversial false positives.
Ill go out on a limb and guess the trying to kill everyone part.
I absolutely get the myriad of situations, and exceptionalism is one thing, like your example - I can see that.

> but if your are so busy that you can't give the crew a break after that there are bigger problems

Sadly, there are bigger problems more often than not. Around here you can get as much OT as you like, and it's not uncommon for a crew to come on duty, leave quarters, and run back to back calls until their shift ends 12 hours later. Private EMS is ugly (and a travesty, tbh).
When asked by ATC, the pilots mention the threat level escalated to a 4 (at 2:39).

I wasn't familiar with this scale so I looked it up, it's from the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO):

Level 1 — Disruptive behavior (verbal)
Level 2 — Physically abusive behavior
Level 3 — Life-threatening behavior (or display of a weapon)
Level 4 — Attempted or actual breach of the flight crew compartment
> But general societal pressure dictate that if you want to properly separate you divorce.

But isn't that still directly related to finances? The article kind of touches on the same point, where women are "giving up on men" who are not in a good financial position. Not having your finances sorted out with a former partner would also question one's financial position. If one wants to explore other partners after a relationship breakdown, there is social pressure to get one's finances in order.

> If you ever imagine re-marrying

But circling back, you pointed out that the most common reason people get married is for financial reasons. So it seems the reason for divorce, in order to prepare for another marriage, is still for financial reasons.

Which makes sense as the modern marriage contract doesn't cover anything other than financial attributes. Maybe there was an earlier age where there was more to it, but we don't uphold those values anymore.
Let's imagine this as a building block for a bigger product.

A web server may be interested to verify that a request comes out of a Google proxy server. Would it ever make sense to treat differently the requests that come from the Google servers? Or allow only them?

If a publisher could verify that a user is using Chrome, is a user more valuable because tracking them is more robust? Another reason, if those servers recognize and stop the DDoS attacks, it can be cheaper to allow only them than pay for Cloudflare.
Same.

If you haven't tried it, you can basically annotate your html with tagged areas, use your normal server-side rendering, and do in-place replacements / edits / updates with your normal server-side rendered pages. It's very railsy, and I mean that in the best way.

I wouldn't use it for the most demanding client-side interactive experiences, but for most use cases, it's close-to-react level interactivity for maybe 10% of the dev time.

Less side effects. But also much harder to implement. Especially when the people with the power to change things are incentivized not to change it.

Seems like it should be a "insert two keys" kind of thing then. And/or just one button plus some kind of automated system that won't let you do it unless there's some sensor confirmation that it's necessary.

Also, I wonder why we don't have electric planes. Sure, batteries aren't there yet. But we could have a jet turbine used as a generator (actually done quite often as a portable ground-based power source, it's really cool), a series of batteries to store the power temporarily, and electric fans to move the plane forward.
From the article: "When the jump seat, a third seat in the cockpit, is occupied, it’s often filled by an off-duty pilot, but the seat can be used by other airline employees or federal safety inspectors."

Maybe these rules will change a bit going forward.
And just like that, special issuance for mental health will become that much more impossible.

Someone having suicidal thoughts does not alone indicate that they're going to attempt suicide, much less attempt suicide by crashing their plane. Unfortunately this relies on the shrink's judgement, which of course isn't remotely reliable.

On average, the ‘WISE Teens’ intervention did not improve outcomes with significant deteriorations or null effects observed across outcomes relative to class-as-per-usual immediately post-intervention. The largest deteriorations were observed for depressive (d = −0.22; 95% CI = −0.35, −0.08) and anxiety symptoms (d = −0.28; 95%CI - = −0.41, −0.14
Fundamentally, the issue is that the FAA's model of mental health doesn't try to help pilots in distress keep flying; it tries to identify problems and get them out of the sky. So of course pilots will react to that threat to their livelihood (and way-of-life; there's a lot of personal pride wrapped up in the profession) and avoid honesty. Honesty becomes the self-destructive strategy as long as the FAA is willing to use what is discovered in therapy to clip wings.

It's a real hard corner they're painted into on this because they ultimately don't know what makes a pilot snap and decide to kill a planeload of trusting passengers.
Yeah and if they say they've been feeling sad their career is over. What a fantastic system.
I like this approach to thinking about abstractions. It's easy to forget /why/ you are abstracting something, and this gives some perspective and structure to it.

Speech with consequences is the very definition of lack of free speech:

"Freedom of speech is a principle that supports the freedom of an individual or a community to articulate their opinions and ideas without fear of retaliation, censorship, or legal sanction."

> It's worth noting that practitioners of western medicine have been scoffing at naturopathic doctors for decades over their focus on the role of C. albicans in some chronic, systemic disorders that are difficult to diagnose and treat.

The problem is that if you are wrong a lot, people stop listening and will not hear you out when you are right.

It is also not very helpful to be right about things when there is no way of telling when you are right or wrong.
It's probably worth noting the libraries I've seen that have a nice makerlab (to where the the tools are maintained and they facilitate trainings) usually have at least a couple staff librarians that are fairly enthusiastic about making things and using the tools themselves too.

That's my limited anecdotal experience, noticing there's also been libraries that might've initially offered 3d printing then stopped (possibly due to abuse, maintenance burden, staff changes, etc.)
Wow. That must have been super unnerving and retrospectively a lot more scary than you must have thought at the moment.

For this reason US airlines are required to have a minimum of two crew members inside the cockpit at all times. When a working pilot needs to use the restroom a flight attendant will temporarily take their place inside the cockpit.

If you sit up front its not unusual to see them go through this dance which involves barricading the front galley area with drink carts first.

Also: at least in the U.S., being an airline pilot is one of those career decisions that only really starts to pay off financially/lifestyle-wise later in your career. The pay and conditions of (say) mainline 777 captain vs. regional ERJ first-officer are very, very different and almost everything is seniority-based.
Maybe I'm just blind, but I wasn't able to find what ETIAS stands for anywhere on this website dedicated to ETIAS (including under "What is ETIAS"). For anyone else wondering, it's "European Travel Information and Authorisation System"

This also makes me wonder (and doesn't seem to discuss anywhere) about "special" Turkish passports (green passports that government workers and their families can get that allow visa free travel to many countries including the EU). It's unclear to me if they would need ETIAS as well. And I imagine there's oodles of other edge cases like that where people will be confused and stuck at borders
I for one think this does not go far enough. Teachers have access to children, and so we should monitor children as well.

Whike they may not tweet, we should involve investigators to catalog what words and babyspeech the children say, their tastes in toys, how they arrange their blocks and perhaps even their food preferences.

While tracking the food preferences of every toddler across the UK may be involved, we must remember this is for the safety of those children and the country as a whole and there can be no greater use of government employees time.
Depending on where you live and what plants you are growing and how picky they are, you may need to water less in hot weather (which is counterintuitive to most people). Unfortunately that can either be really good or really bad advice depending on your climate, the time of year, the type of plants you grow, etc so it's not a hard and fast rule, but especially if you have plants that struggle with molds, mildews, and/or fungi, keeping the top of the plant dry and letting the top part of the soil dry out regularly can be the difference between a healthy robust plant and a sickly one.
The safest solution is an in-ground drip system, but that's also one of the hardest.

Honestly the best advice is to find a nice, elderly/retired person (usually women, but not always) who is into gardening in your area and have discussions with them. Bring pictures of your plants to the nursery and/or gardening store, or join a Facebook group or something and you can usually find people. Don't get discouraged if the first few people don't work out. Particularly if you are young, you'll get a lot better results if you are overly respectful and polite, at least until you get to know each other better. Give them the benefit of the doubt if they say something you find offensive and just observe/listen rather than lecture.
Many older generations can be hesitant to engage with younger people because the social customs are just so different and it can make them uncomfortable. Ideally try to watch them do what they do (planting, pruning, tending, mulching, etc), because if you are on HN you may be more scientifically minded, but most of these people just do what they do and don't even think about it or even notice sometimes. It's very much an art to them. If you ask them things like "why do you mulch there and why do you use grass clipping" be prepared for them to have a terrible answer that doesn't make sense, but know that they are probably doing it because it works, but the reason why it works might be an exercise left for you to find out. A lot of them have generations worth of muscle memory and convention that is all good stuff, so don't discard it just because they can't explain why they do it.
From what I understand these things can happen on the spur of the moment without any logic to it.

I think you're talking about reseller exemption. Boeing or any other manufacturing company.

For example, in the chain of iron ore -> steel -> pistons -> engine -> car: In USA, each of the middle steps get what is called a "reseller's exemption certificate" and the sales tax is only charged when you walk out of the dealer.

In EU, each of the steps get VAT taxed, but they can remit the taxes from the next step. Overall effect is the same, but USA's system is simpler and easier with less paperwork. American suppliers have to get a certificate only once and then its all set. No sales tax is collected by the buyer for established repeated relationships. One time paperwork.

Compact state licensure still requires you pay for other state licenses and go through their process, it’s just a lot faster since the states agree that your background check and data don’t need to be reevaluated from scratch. A doc would have to pay for every single state license in order to work nationally. But the VA and IHS already accept docs with any state license to work in their system at any site, basically creating a “national” license. It works just fine. It doesn’t increase risk of fraud, if someone is a fraudster they wouldn’t be able to practice anywhere after losing a national license.

Secure transports are built out of asymmetric key agreement and symmetric bulk encryption, glued together with symmetric hashes. The symmetric cryptography isn't meaningfully threatened by any QC we're yet aware of. Hybrid PQC/classical schemes do two key agreements (an ECC kex and a LWE kem), and then plug both results into HKDF (conceptually: a symmetric hash) to derive a shared secret.

In that scheme, you have to compromise both the PQC and ECC key agreements, independently.

Is it really a safety issue having another pilot from the same airline in the cockpit? Does allowing a third pilot in the cockpit increase the chance of having a mentally unstable pilot in the cockpit, or decrease? What if it was the on-duty copilot that tried to down the plane?
Fair, but these pilot mental health incidents are not that common. We all rightly resented two decades of taking off our shoes in security because of that one shoe bombing attempt.

The trick would be to position it as being about broader spectrum welfare than just a binary determination of whether you're crazy enough to try to kill a plane full of innocent passengers.
Some good insights and arguments. Among these is the argument that media systems matter a lot regarding a country's resilience to disinformation. They then proceed to warn that disinformation is perceived in many countries as a security threat; a perception that leads to surveillance, censorship, and drastic measures like the outright bans of Russia's state media. But alternatives are pursued too in the realms of data protection, media law, education, and competition policy. They conclude that it is necessary to debate the possibility, or lack thereof, of a shared epistemic understanding of 'truth' in democratic policy-making and the ever-increasing reliance on private companies in all things.
> How would you find out how much real-estate I held outside of the united states?

Form 8938 for reporting, treaties with other countries mandating reporting. Agreed while difficult, it would not be impossible to avoid fiat rails when transacting in foreign real estate (ie evading transaction reporting thresholds). You would likely want to employ a data team for ingesting public real estate ownership records out of country if you were going to get serious about this gap, maybe form a clearinghouse for all developed nation tax authorities to consume the aggregate data lake created.

"FATCA is used by government personnel to detect indicia of U.S. persons and their assets and to enable cross-checking where assets have been self-reported by individuals to the IRS or to the Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN). U.S. persons, regardless of residence location and regardless of dual citizenship, are required to self-report their non-U.S. assets to FinCEN on an annual basis. According to qualification criteria, individuals are also required to report this information on IRS information-reporting form 8938. FATCA will allow detection of persons who have not self-reported, enabling collection of large penalties. FATCA allows government personnel to locate U.S. persons not living in the United States, so as to assess U.S. tax or penalties."

The other day I learned that Bandai Namco had the patent for showing a minigame while presenting a loading screen for the main game.

I find it mind blowing that the mere idea of adding a small silly tetris or some other easy way to distract during a long load screen, was patented, and a company could get into trouble if they had the same idea for their game and didn't check if it's something in the category of "no-do".

That patent was active until 2015, when it finally expired. What an absurd reason, on the grand scheme of things, for not being able to have minigames at all in any other game before that year. (not that afterwards we got a lot of that anyways, but that's beside the point)

Now extrapolate that to a myriad of cool ideas that cannot be used, essentially, because an stupid system that says so.
