> I've seen some investment banks provide a small device that looks like a calculator and generate MFA codes. Not sure what they are called.

They're more than MFA codes though: they're actually performing cryptographic challenge/response.

I mean: the RSA tokens just generate a MFA code. But the bank "card readers", whether they actually read a card or not, do perform challenge/response.

I've got several banks using the same type of card reader: I put my bank card in and respond to a challenge: I enter the digits that the card reader shows me and I can log in.

I've got another bank which provided me a reader: it's not a card reader as its standalone (I don't need any bank card to use it) but it still perform challenge/response.

For example for any wire tx to a new recipient or above a certain amount, I need to enter the amount and part of the recipient's bank account number and sign the transaction.

It's more than just authentication.

Generally the worst offenders for Wayland support are closed source / abandoned apps that you should consider replacing. Zoom crashes if I try and screenshare, but google meet (in a chrome-alike) works fine. I don't want zoom anyway.
> Is it so hard to believe that regular voters might have ideological reasons for preferring a smaller, less intrusive government that imposes lower taxes?

Those wanting a "smaller, less intrusive government" should certainly avoid the Conservatives, then; given this government's authoritarian agenda has included:

- Criminalised being noisy (Police, Crime, Sentencing and Courts Act)

- Authorised police to stop and search without suspicion, and the banning of individuals from protesting (Public Order Act)

- Overruled a devolved government (an unprecedented action), specifically to intrude on the personal freedom of Scottish citizens.

- Violated rights (of citizens and non-citizens) so often that they're considering scrapping the Human Rights Act, and withdrawing from international rights bodies.

Those wanting "lower taxes" presumably didn't want this government to raise National Insurance (breaking a specific manifesto promise not to), or their sharp upward trend in most taxes (other than stamp duty and fuel duty; both nominally and as a percentage of GDP) https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/hmrc-tax-and-nics-r...
I'm betting it's their recent CS2 rollout, where instead of adding it as a new listing they released it as an update to CS:Go. This meant the next time you logged in, it downloaded the new game and removed the old. The goal was to funnel people over to the new game.

Upsides: CS2 should immediately have the full player base.

Downsides: CS:Go is no longer available. CS2 is not a drop-in replacement, it has higher system requirements and no longer supports Mac. No opportunity for CS:Go to live on through custom servers.

It's definately an odd situation, but it's very much not the norm. Steam tends to be ridiculously good at leaving your library intact. I still play Rocket League through steam even though it's been Epic exclusive (and free) for years.

The problem with raises and promotions is that it's slow, requires a lot more work from the manager, and doesn't increase the manager's number of reports. Thus hiring externally is a lot easier and more beneficial to the manager. Especially for those managers who are serial job hoppers themselves.

Another factor is the recruiting teams are assessed on conversion, how many passed phone screens, on sites, and offer accepts etc, but not on the performance of those employees after they join. So recruiters just spam anyone they think will have a remote chance of passing some stage of the interview process.

There have to be consequences to hiring a bad hire for the recruiting team and they have to be severe enough to make recruiting risk averse.

But this will never be the case if the organization is in growth mode where everything manager is trying to get as much headcount and hiring as fast as possible.
Regarding Wayland support, the gap between KDE/Gnome and these smaller DEs (XFCE, Cinnamon, Mate , LXDE etc etc) is getting wider and wider...

> But that is literally not possible with hardware you purchase yourself.

Sure it is. I think TFA is talking about a company selling you exactly that capability.

> You can't provision any more until you go and buy more hardware.

But this is also true of AWS etc. When their estate gets full, they need to go buy more hardware. Regardless of who owns the tin, someone's doing a capacity plan and buying hardware to meet demand.

The point of 'cloud' is that you move that function out of the domain who are actually using resources to solve business problems, which is where it traditionally sat. Historically, if you wanted to run a service, you had to go buy some hardware and hire someone to manage it for you.

A cloud-like model means that the application engineers no longer care about servers, disks and switches. Instead, they just use some APIs to request some resources and then deploy a workload onto them. The details of what hardware, where and how is fuzzy and abstracted. Or cloud-like.

> You can only be "cloud-like" if you're under-provisioning

Everyone under-provisions. Nobody runs at 100% utilisation.
Probably prudent - would not trust any implementation except native ones in Windows that does writes.

Antibiotics of all classes are widely-abused clinically and in dairy and meat ag in America. However, if someone wears a seatbelt in a car, VLA15 and Lyme PrEP are similar to vaccines targeting the prevention of various forms of LD specifically. An ounce of prevention...

Let me regale whichever reader happens by with just a sliver of the oral traditions of farmers in my family who, over the centuries, died from preventable skin cancers by not wearing sunscreen or hats, lung cancers from smoking, uranium water contamination in the Four Corners region (many horrible deaths in one house), and from treatable conditions by not going to the doctor and who chose to snub precautions.
Are you stressed or under pressure?

Probably this regimen will prolong your life and healthspan but might be not warrented to evade GERD if you are stressed, because de-stressing alone would get you there without having to give up a variety of foods.

It is also my theory that if doctors are right and the #1 cause of GERD is smoking (and I have no reason to believe that isn' true) then 1800-1980 everybody had GERD but people being less stressed and hyperaware of their health didn't notice it as much.
You're right if we're not accounting for time, energy, work, money, and being displaced while they're refinishing said floor in your waste assessment. My last house had real wood floors, you can't be there when it's happening, even water based lacquers have toxic fumes and particulates.

Vinyl is cheaper, stronger, less prone to scratches than wood, more water resistant, and requires minimum maintenance and upkeep cost. Vinyl is also recyclable...

Ironically, the USAF recently built a supercomputer out of PS3s (https://www.military.com/off-duty/games/2023/02/17/air-force...).

They alluded to what you're talking about but I wasn't familiar with the reference.
A recent possibility could be Valve releasing Counter Strike 2 by replacing Counter Strike: Global Offensive entirely. Technically you can still play CS:GO by selecting the version in the Betas drop down (for now at least) but there are plenty of people who purchased CS:GO years ago before it was free and are upset because their "paid" game was replaced by a "free" game.
> The part you're missing is you have to yield when changing lanes, just like in any other road.

This is not true with most roundabouts in North America at least. If you look at the diagram GP posted, you do not change to the outer lane to exit. You exit directly from the inner lane. In fact, you NEVER change lanes in a roundabout. The reason this works (where the inside lane crosses the outside) is because the roundabout is small enough that the traffic in the outside lane has to let you exit as part of yielding to enter the roundabout in the first place. After that, as long as everyone respects which exits they're allowed to take from which lane, there is no more crossing traffic. In practice, if you are in an inside lane, you want to keep an eye on the outer lanes to make sure someone isn't trying to take a later exit than they are allowed.

From GP link:

> Do not change lanes in a roundabout

> Do not travel in the outside lane further than allowed as it may create a hazard for the vehicle exiting the roundabout from the inside lane
I saw them live circa 1988-ish around the time of Daydream Nation.

They've all been super creative. Thurston Moore and Kim Gordon and also Lee Ranaldo have had interesting side projects. I very much was interested in their noise stuff. Moore collaborated once with Borbetomagus. And Ranaldo did a lot of sound experiments.

I did get the impression that they were aiming for a much wider audience in the late 80's and early 90's, much like the Pixies, and also like the Pixies it never seemed to pan out-- but it was close.

Moore has done some television host stuff 20 years back, "Sonic Cinema". He definitely has a knack for that-- introducing films and interviewing artists, etc.
Fun fact, for a brief moment Italy was the world's 4th largest economy (after USA, Japan and Germany) in the 1980s.

Germany $1,298B

Italy $805B

> however I don't understand who this is for.

I can't think of a lot of examples right now but I can already imagine one type of customers for such a product - universities wanting high performance computing. At my alma mater, the HPC cluster/server was in a different slightly distant location. Using something like AWS wouldn't be liked by almost any uni admin, and running a server on premises isn't a great idea in a place that gets the occasional (but rare) power or internet cut. Outsourcing some of these responsibilities may have been nice for our admin.
Yeah, the curl|bash approach is approximately as safe as basically any other software installation method, if you trust the owner of the URL as much as you trust the maintainers of NPM, Pypi, etc.

That's precisely the OP's point. If a rogue physical visitor is a threat vector you need to protect against, then you have a different policy for that (e.g. how they get on your network or physically enter your IT homelab). But if you have a home NAS then what's the point of MFA?

I would expect writing to be much harder on all file-systems. There's only one way to read the data, but there could be any number of strategies for deciding where to write new data.
People you need to communicate with especially for work are unlikely to be impressed by your reason why everyone should use a different technology.
>falcon and all of spacex is based on ignoring advice from others, especially “industry experts”

Not in the least. SpaceX hires a lot of rocket scientists who are industry experts. They're more agile than the entrenched players since Boeing/Lockheed legacy space programs weren't efficient but SpaceX has relied upon expert consultation and expert advice from folks in the industry to build their rockets. I don't see them as building from first principles at all, they're building on what's come before standing on the shoulders of the rocket engineers who've come before.
What do GitHub Actions and "team workflows" have to do with Data Structures? Even before he mentioned what he was inspired to ad, the course seemed scattered and superficial rather than foundational and preparatory.

I'm sure it's hard/impossible to drive one through the bureaucracy, but it sounds like he should have pitched a new course on Contemporary Team Practices or something.

> In a study published in Nature Physics, they conclude that sheets of epithelial tissue, which make up skin and sheathe internal organs, act like liquid crystals — materials that are ordered like solids but flow like liquids. To make that connection, the team demonstrated that two distinct symmetries coexist in epithelial tissue. These different symmetries, which determine how liquid crystals respond to physical forces, simply appear at different scales.

Hard agree. Seen too much shit like Kanban boards suddenly sucking because they’re digital and limitless instead of physical and limited in size, or schools sending avalanches of mostly-useless email and other digital messages home where before you’d just have gotten a handful of paper notes in the mail or sent home with kids.

The point is the application team doesn't have to do any of that.

Someone's always got to buy the tin and manage that. Some people are big enough that they might get a benefit from doing that themselves, rather than having Jeff Bezos do it for them.

From the application team's perspective, call API then container go whirr.
Ah, yes, CockroachDB.
Agreed that the Health Insurance situation (I call it Mafia) is terrible in the US. A perfect example of where we are not even close to being good let alone great.

Honestly, I've had a great experience because I've read a lot of experiences like yours and stuck with pages router & Next 12, which works nicely for everything I've needed it to do.

There might be a point where app router is stable & smooth but it's pretty clearly not right now, so havn't really seen the need to upgrade. I think there was a pretty decent comms issue with the stability of it from both the Next and React teams, but I have a hard time faulting an otherwise fairly stable and useful framework for adding features when they're not breaking the existing stable path.

Hooks was a bit of a bumpy transition as well, but I do think that I prefer the code written with them to the code before them. I think it's OK to wait a year or two to let the rough edges get filed down when these types of frameworks release big new feature sets.

Edit: I'll note that we don't use next/image or API routes either, both of which I've seen some churn / pain with. Possible I just hit on the framework when it was in a pretty happy place and most of the new features or suggested defaults have had pain points that I havn't experienced.

The underlying assumptions here are that companies can reliably identify poor performers (I would tend to doubt this, especially at a scale of tens of thousands of employees), that layoffs don't cause negative repercussions among the employees who are kept on (something I know from personal experience to be false) and that skilled employees of a no-longer-in-demand division would be unsuited to the new, hot division (a bugbear of mine is how corporations drive their employees to specialize, then lay them off once they thing they no longer need the specialization).
Scenario: I have $aLotOfData in S3 and I need to move it to a MySql database.

Are you going to tell them that they can’t use Glue? Athena? Redshift? Quicksite?

When your company needs a call center are you going to tell them not to use Amazon Connect? Now they need to integrate the call center with Salesforce - are you going to tell them they can’t do that because they have to use Lambda?

They want to have speech to text - now they need Amazon Lex.

Then they want a reporting dashboard that comes from their contact trace records. Now they need Kinesis which is going to stream to S3.

The typical company uses over 250 SaaS products that they have some form of integration with. Are you going to tell them not to use any of those either? Are you going to tell them not to use Salesforce? ServiceNow? Microsoft Office?

If you work in the health care industry are you going to tell them not to use Epic?

Try living as a tax payer on local wages there, not as a tourist on UK wages for the food and the weather.

There's a reason miles more young people move for work from the South of Europe to the UK and the only thing moving from the UK to the South of Europe are financially stable retirees for the food and the weather, not for work.
IMO, the lower the real estate valuations, the better. Cheap real estate is one of the main points Japan has in its favor right now. Cheap transportation, cheap food, and cheap electricity all contribute to a healthy economy; cheap real estate is no different.

On the telecom side, as with so many others, Japan squandered their early lead by being extremely inward-focused, as usual. Despite their export-oriented economy and a few giants like Toyota and Sony, most Japanese companies are rarely interested in looking beyond their (shrinking) domestic market, resulting in "Galapagos syndrome", where diverse and sophisticated domestic technologies evolve in isolation from the rest of the world, only to eventually be crushed when global competitors catch up and subsequently pass them.

My Roombas seem to last about 5 years (then they get transformed into experimental robot platforms).

There would be an opportunity cost even without Google’s money. Google may not be what it once was but it is definitely still the best in the free-tier search engines you can use today and in 2007 it was several heads and shoulders above anything else Apple could have picked as the default on iPhones.

If payment from Google (or anyone else) isn’t a factor in what Apple uses as the Safari default, it is not at all clear that this change alone would make it worth Apple’s time to develop their own search engine. You have an easier argument with that change, but it’s not a slam dunk.
AFAIK, no such directories exist in the linux proc code at this time. (Which means you won't get bug reports even in principle until, possibly years later, some such directories are added. At which point the code will start to to malfunction, possibly in bizzare and inconsistent ways, despite having worked fine for years by that point. This is a design principle I learned by experience.)
Yeah it seems like a ripoff,

What you wish something would be priced is not the point. It is priced relative to its power.

I think they mean there have been 30 reported cases of an astronaut getting a kidney stone less than 2 years after their latest space flight.

Given that astronauts are exceptionally physically fit individuals to start with, at least at the time of their space missions, this is probably quite significant evidence that space flight causes kidney stones.

No, I don't know how to quantify it, but if you'd like to continue to disagree with me I think you'll have to do the research on it, since you seem to be very engaged with the problem, and I have other things to do.
