Thinking of Sweden-Russia relations reminded me of this (https://www.euronews.com/my-europe/2022/06/06/how-a-nondescr..., where people were mocking Sweden for not giving food to others’ kids who are guests.

I seem to recall Swedish authorities followed up on the claim, checking if it’s propaganda from Russia, but they failed to find any links (their conclusion was that it’s wholly unconnected). Does anyone else rem this latter part as well or am I misremembering?
I find it funny(ironic) that the OpenBSD project is trying hard to go the other way, every single install has unique and randomized address offsets.

Video games were already widely accessible all over Europe in the 90s, so were personal computers and specialized shops were you could buy parts to assemble your computer yourself.

There was also a big culture of downloading games illegally, and I remember people were trading burned CDs at school -- it was a big thing to have a CD burner then. While it was certainly not legal, it contributed greatly to the spreading of niche, foreign or rare games.

By 2000 personal computers had become sufficiently cheap that many people had individual computers rather than family ones. Windows 98 had made them accessible to everyone, and XP which followed up was truly the beginning of everyone having a computer.

The concept of a "gaming PC" doesn't really make sense, any PC can play games, and it only costs 100-200 euros to upgrade relevant parts to play the latest games on high graphics settings (but as we all know, graphics don't matter anyway). I guess it's a concept that appeared with the new generation being unable to assemble parts.

The time period you speak of, the mid-2000s, was actually the end of an era and the beginning of mainstream over-marketed gaming, and a general dumbing down and drop in the quality of video games. I guess it also came with the rise of "digital purchases", but digital didn't really fully take over until the 2020s.

For a long time Internet connections were not sufficiently good to download games on a massive scale, which is also part of the reason why people reselling copies was popular.

As for the difficulty of online payments, I don't buy it. First, you could always go physical, and second, the Netherlands were part of the eurozone since 1999, so hardly isolated in currency or financial systems. I remember buying stuff online in 1999 from other European shops, and it was indeed much easier than in pre-euro times.

I learned to use a command line interface before I was old enough that I can summon any conscious memories of the time now.† Like I said, "the same reason". I would have been less than three years old.

The family computer had Windows, but I would not use it other than to play Solitaire, because it functioned worse than DOS. The default UI was DOS Shell ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DOS_Shell ; the page image there is not a perfect match to our installation, but it's close.), so most often I'd be using what amounted to a very primitive graphical interface, but I would also use straight DOS for reasons I do not recall.

† Almost. I vaguely remember the large boards that my mother prepared in order to teach me to read, things like a magazine photograph of a horse juxtaposed with a large letter H, but I don't remember being so instructed, and that memory is subject to later reinforcement because those boards were kept for a long time. But it stands to reason that I would have needed to learn to read before learning to use a computer, so there's a chance some of those board memories predate that knowledge. I can remember my mother singing to me, but there's no way to date those memories precisely. Any memories that still maintain concrete details come from well after I could use a computer.

> By the same logic I wonder why would you believe anything written in law in a chinese context.

China is commonly regarded as a "rule by law" (as opposed to "rule of law") jurisdiction [1]. That doesn't mean that the law is irrelevant; it means that the law is applied if and when it suits the CCP to do so.

So if you want to know which powers the CCP is interested in wielding (like the ability to order any Chinese citizen or organization anywhere in the world to assist "intelligence efforts"), you should definitely read the law.

Hardly. As of December 31, 2022, total membership of the Communist Party of China was 98.041 million (taken straight from the "Intra-Party Statistical Bulletin of the Communist Party of China" [2]). More than 99 million people live in the top five cities alone - and there are about a hundred more counting at least one million inhabitants each [3].

Online dating is now pay to win, how else would a dating site make money? It's not like the old days when throwing Google Adsense ads in between profiles could pay the bills.
If you frame it as “just” the money problem, you are suddenly competing with everyone who has more money, and they can surely win in that.

If you frame it as “security” problem, you are already nothing compared to those who are believed to have the final say on “security”.

Why do you believe that software engineers can't sell? Many programmers have created billion-dollar companies, more than any other profession.

Stop trying to steal bank credentials, and switch your spyware to pulling things that help to target ads, "optimize for engagement", or "streamline business", and suddenly the entire system starts working for you. You can then work in the clear, and use all the new security tools - like HSTS, DoH, certificate pinning, and code signing - to prevent your victims from protecting themselves from you.

> The sidebands of morse code carry no information and are incidental.

The sidebands in CW ARE the information. If there were no sidebands, there would be no information.

> When the key is down there is no modulation whatsoever.

No, but you can't keep the key down forever. The information is in the transition from Key-down to Key-up (and Vice/versa). Which is why the modulation envelope (eg bandwidth) has to be tailored to the keying speed.

> You can easily use a transmitter with Gaussian keying to reduce the sidebands to zero.

Gausian keying requires a Raised-Cosine envelope. It is this which contains the sidebands and the information, and causes the B/W to be widened.

Show HN: My newly created Dev Agency reached $20K in revenue
I have been working in software companies for 6 years. On 3rd July 2017, I started my "official" career and on 4th July 2023, I finally left my job. I worked with multiple companies in this time span.

I started building products in 2015 and launched many products. In 2020, I tried getting external funding for one of my startups but failed.

Now My target is to bootstrap anything I am working on. I wanted to leave my job for a long time but finally made this decision this July.

After leaving my job, I wanted to keep building the products that I wanted but to generate income to support my journey I started MVP development company.

To begin this journey, I offered to build MVP for $3K and got 2 projects. Successfully delivered them on time. Then I raised my price to $4K and then $5K minimum for an MVP.

To this date, my company UniqueSide.io crossed $22K in revenue in 3 months.

Getting clients is the hard part of this journey but I am also shipping my products and sharing my journey on Twitter, most of the customers came to me after seeing my work on Twitter and my products.

I am not doing any cold calling, I got all the projects directly in my DMs (Twitter and LinkedIn). I am pushing hard to deliver all the projects and also working on my products as well. Let's see how it goes.

> Why do recreational distance runners care about speed so much?

Qualifying times and cutoffs are a thing, so that's it for some people. For others, it's about having goals, or even just measuring progress. You might find the running "satisfying" and "rewarding" in itself, but for many that's not the case. For them, the satisfaction is not in running but in having run, and part of that is in the numbers. Times go down, heart rates go down, weights go down, whatever. Without goals and metrics, there's nothing but the grind.

And yeah, some people are just competitive. But there's nothing wrong with that either. People are just motivated different ways.

> Life for someone born poor even a century ago was brutal and oppressive in a way most of us have difficulty understanding.

Not really. A century ago people in many parts of the USA were dirt poor. I mean no savings, no electricity, no indoor plumbing. But they ate well—real food they grew, raised, and hunted themselves. They had deep communal bonds, spiritual fulfillment, and a sense of meaning in their lives that is increasingly absent.

Ask HN: What boring and utterly reliable technologies would you recommend?
Seems like the tech landscape is littered with products and technologies that promise a lot but barely work, from messy and fragile languages and SDKs, to IDEs that are buggy as hell, etc. Some products start out well but then are enshittified.

Every one in a while I come across a stable piece of tech is rock solid and delivers what it promises for years. It is "boring" in that it works well without a fuss. These are the technologies that will never let you down, in which you can invest building a business or for personal use.

Some of the boring/reliable tech I've been impressed with:

(1) PostgreSQL database (probably the most solid piece of technology I've had the pleasure to use)

(2) Email via IMAP (well supported by most email providers, simple to setup, just works)

(3) Macbooks (the hardware, not necessarily the MacOS running on them)
