Anything except self-governance, is an abuse. It abuses those who have been taught to go along with this external governance by those running the governance system. Its all it ever was, all it can ever be. There is no social contract, its all abuse. Legalised theft to put in roads, or remove them, as at present.

If some people want to work together, to opt-in voluntarily to do this or that, as long as it doesn't harm another - then great. To have this immoral monolith writing laws that no one can justify, is ridiculous. All pretence of legitimacy is gone, it is simply about control.

The above is not a political argument. It is a moral one. What circumstances allow one to forcibly extract from another and steal 40% of their work, or worse and then have the gall to call itself "good"? How big does a gang have to be to gain rights than an individual does not have? No one would think it "right" that I demand 40% of their income! Government is just an extractive mafia system that attempts to pose as the "best we've got", whilst using force to knock down any alternative possibilities of management.

i.MX isn't perfect, like there are still closed-source microcode blobs for things like SPI DMA, but it's better than nothing. You can at least build it into a design without having to worry that the supply of boards is being strangled.
I'd start by dropping the message that he's on the "wrong side of this issue." It's clear that many people believe that's very much up for debate. Right or wrong though, he'll certainly anger one group or the other with his vocal position. That's the real issue.

If he took your position on the matter and was similarly vocal, would you have the same concern?
`value.startsWith('javascript:')` and there you have a vulnerability. There can be arbitrary white-space before the URL, so you'd need to do `value.trim().startsWith('javascript:')` instead. However, I much prefer white listing instead, i.e. only allowing `http:`, `https:` and maybe `mailto:`, `ftp:`, `sftp:` and such. Maybe allow relative URLs starting with `/`. Maybe. Though that would mean to correctly handle all attributes that actually can be URLs. Again, I'd just white list a few tags plus a few of their attributes.
I though React, et al were originally created as a better way to manage DOM updates (shadow DOM). Has that need gone away?
Why would Al Jazeera produce this video? I think that's important to keep in mind as you watch it. The video begins by pointing towards "western media" as the source of problems, which is a pretty advantageous message for a non-western media outlet to send. They suggest that "press freedom" is just a buzzword for how media operates in democracies, which is quite convenient for an outlet owned and funded by a non-democratic country. And why might they have wanted to use an abstract fifth filter instead of the very specific one Chomsky wrote in his book?

There's a nihilistic "the media are liars and everything you read is a lie" take that bounces around the Internet a lot, but I don't think that was Chomsky's original point.
If you use Ruby with rvm or asdf the gems go in a directory inside your home, named after the ruby version you are using for a given project and possibly a gemset you defined, so two projects with different dependencies but the same ruby don't interfere with each other. Or just use bundle and activate only the gems in the local Gemfile. Or use docker and put everything inside a container.

If I can complain about something is that there are so many ways to do it that I can't remember their details when I'm away from my laptop, as I am now. I think that I have at least one occurrence of all those 4 methods on my laptop, for different customers. They decide and everybody makes a different decision.

Other languages: same problems with different tools.
Contrasting the replies to this comment with the replies in all the "cashless society" posts are hilarious.

"Oh I never use cash, cashless transactions take 0.00362 seconds less, so taking the risk that I become homeless is worth it to me." - followed by outrage at discovering that trusting your entire financial life to the whims of a compliance department is a real risk.

At some point, you have to assess your risks and realize that your "convenience" comes at a cost. Why people don't use cash, or at the very least have a few stacks in a safe somewhere, always floors me.

They will say you agreed to the terms they can close the account for whatever reason, and that receiving the balance within a week is quick enough. I doubt the courts would say otherwise. Lawyers probably won't take this case.

The article suggests using debian’s contrib package category in this way. (Packages with such dependencies live in contrib, since they don’t live up to Debian’s quality standards, which is fine.)
Great article. Thinking of you and your family.
> Classic schooling. Never fails to fuck people up on numerous unintended ways a decade later.

I would redefine that as 'Life'.

The only way to produce "perfect" human beings is to put them into a sterile environment where you literally control everything about it and then you have the issue of homogeneity.

To live is to risk, for many "classic schooling" is very beneficial, for many it is not. I'm not advocating doing absolutely nothing because nothing is unknowable, I'm just pointing out that there is no such thing as a perfect solution.

Sell on Android exclusively and help convince people to swap phones.

I’m only half kidding here as companies dropping Apple in mass would eventually get people to swap. Though I suspect an Android only ecosystem would quickly become even worse for developers.
NetScan
NetScan is a lightweight Network scanner which lists IPs, MAC Addresses, OS, and Manufacturer information of all devices on a specified network.

I began working on this project around a month ago, and have published 4 releases since then, but it hasn't gotten too much attention yet. I figured this might be a good place to show it off. :)

Hope someone finds this useful.
Agreed it’s out of control. But in the past year I’ve transitioned to a platform team so I’m working with devops-ish tooling for the first time. Holy shit…the amount of complexity there gives front-end a run for its money. You’ve got Kubernetes, Helm, Terraform, CircleCI, yadda yadda. The amount of layered terminology in just those technologies alone is absurd.
If three of you have such substantially different interpretations of the text, then it’s almost certainly bullshit.

Each country's Fed (Bank of England for UK) should provide a very basic free bank accounts to all residents. That would be the baseline from which all private bank would have to compete with. The cost is minimal (OK maybe charge 5USD a year or something).

I don't see any reason why this hasn't happened except that the Fed has been captured by private banks.
Currently have some free time between jobs to explore what actually makes me passionate, so threads like this are really useful to get inspired!

Been starting various projects to quickly figure out what I like and don’t like. Realized that I miss working on highly technical projects after working on consumer apps for a couple of years. So as a result been revamping my resume and planning my next steps in my software engineering career. There are some really cool companies out there in the space of databases and distributed systems.

As part of scouting for jobs built some little tools with help of LLMs to tailor my resume to job positions.

Also, rediscovered that I enjoy solving little algorithm problems after practicing with LeetCode. ChatGPT makes as if I have my own tutor to explain and hint when necessary, reminded me of university and study groups.

It's kind of a "everybody sucks" situation and there's no real winners.

Archive.[whatever] setup a server system to give you access from a country not your own, so that abusers have a harder time of archiving illegal content, then instantly reporting it to get the entire archive taken down. He uses EDNS to do this, but CF doesn't provide EDNS since it's a privacy issue to them.

So archive.[whatever] doesn't work for CF DNS because he doesn't want to risk bad actors being able to take down the archive.

Sensible reasons on both sides, especially for a service like archive.[whatever], and the real losers in this situation are the users.
I'm not really buying this informational asymmetry argument. Yes the companies will have been in more cases than the consumer, but that's not really a relevant comparison. The consumer isn't picking the arbitrator, his lawyer is, and he and his firm will have been involved in a lot of cases.
Nope. Triangulated and arrested within minutes.
That’s how it’s already done. I don’t know why no device actually exposes that information, but the e-marker in every USB-C 3.0 (or beyond) cable tells the device exactly that: The highest supported physical data rate and charging speed.
At that size the diseconomies of scale would swamp any experience curve effects.
The idea of Debian is to have a stable system that doesn't change if it possibly can for the life of the release. If you want to constantly get new breaking changes in your packages, switch to testing or sid.
Speaking as CEO at Element - I don't particularly like CLAs either from an ideological perspective. However, the only way that Element can retain the right to provide alternative licenses to proprietary forks is if it has the right to do so, which means requiring a CLA. Otherwise the license change would not solve the problem that it's trying to solve, i.e. to provide a way for proprietary forks to contribute back to Matrix development costs, without having to AGPL their forks.

[edit: clarify that CLA != assigning code ownership]
Is there anything in the standard to support what you're saying? Based on [1], the guidance is:

no, the bacteria and/or mosquitoes evolving together is an anticipated outcome and that would surprise absolutely no one. the real question is, when that happens, so what? then we can deploy CRISPR or some other means to extinct the mosquitoes
What's old is new again. My first front-end role was building web applications wayyyyy back in 1999. Everything was done with "Vanilla" JS, including fancy stuff like drag and drop in a treeview, click to edit, building what effectively was a single page app, etc. etc. The hardest part was negotiating the differences between Netscape and Internet Explorer.

One of the points of React vs e.g. jQuery was the ability to do efficient updates in large DOM.trees.

I said it's not the same thing, but they did kick me out as a customer, for a day. And it's the same in that it was caused by some irrational actor (people or people who manage software). If they wanted to just prevent me from sending money to a Nigerian Prince, they could have a) only blocked the wire, not locked my multiple personal and business accounts and b) told me I had to perform XYZ additional steps to get the wire unblocked. Instead they silently disabled account access then generated a spiral of BS, exasperation and time wasting, for a day.
That's not how it works.

They'll need the equivalent of today's $3 million in inflation-adjusted dollars for the time they retire.

What you're saying amounts to a Zimbabwean being able to retire with his lunch money AFTER the country got 1000x inflation and everybody had trillions in their pockets just to get some food for the day - based on the purchasing power of that amount before the inflation.
780 people hit per year in Montana's population yeah? At national population (1.5/2100/*3.5e6) the Montana train-bear fatality rate would correspond to a rate of 214k people hit per year.
The needs of retirement should scale with inflation, so that means you also need $3 million today (in today's dollars) – which is rather high. $600,000 is not too far off what is the minimum recommended amount of saving to retire for 20 years on today, so it seems they simply adjusted that figure for inflation and then forgot that the income used to build up those savings also goes up with inflation.
Still can't find the source of it, but I remembered more details behind the "culture rewrite" hypothesis I read the other day. That source argued that US didn't just defeat Japan, but it thoroughly broke the cult of emperor that existed there until end of WWII, and thus (implied) from the POV of the whole society, the west slew their god, and became a new role model.
Tucker Carlson would be closer to the "Flak" than the New York Times though. He has been pushed to the margins by his previous employer Fox, who are more or less a flak machine at least compared to elite media that are taken seriously by policy makers and the academics that shape those policies.

I’ve also tried to get that information on macOS before, but annoyingly all promising (i.e. related to the SOP protocol which is how the computer talks to the chip in the cable) log lines seem to be redacted.

This is doubly frustrating in that it shows that it’s clearly available to the OS (and not handled by a lower layer controller), but also leaves the faint hope that Apple might implement just such a feature in the future.

That only checks that binaries are the same as what is published by distributors.

It doesn't help against a malicious distributor, unless package managers also do a deterministic build themselves and verify that checksum from self-build binary matches the checksum published by a distributor.

Your comment describes the obsession perfectly. A clean repository history. It helps with things like... History.
> I've never understood this impulse to do "branch cleanup". Why are you adding unnecessary work? Is the source repository for tracking a history of changes or is it an art exhibition?

The history is an end product intended to help others (often future me) figure out when and why things changed, preferably in self-contained, well organized steps. Often my first attempt at a change does something in an illogical order, or I make related changes that later end up in a separate merge. In the short term that change in thinking is somewhat interesting. In the long term it only confuses whoever is looking through the history to figure out why something is the way it is.

The stronger version of this completely discards any history when merging a feature, but I often find that to get rid of useful information.
Can you please share a link to where to get that book? Thanks!
I was ready to say you've made my day but unfortunately those rtlsdr dongles use the mostly unwanted Fitipower FC0012 tuner and not any of the better Raphael tuners (R820T2/etc) that are most common and expected for rtl-sdr dongles. The frequency range supported and the rtl-sdr software ecosystem for FC0012 are minimal.

Elonics E4000 (E4K) 54 - 2200 MHz (1100 MHz-1250 MHz gap)
Rafael Micro R820T 24 - 1766 MHz (>1500 MHz is bad w/o tuner cooling)
Rafael Micro R820T2 24 - 1766 MHz (>1500 MHz is bad w/o tuner cooling)
Rafael Micro R820T2 13 - 1864 MHz (mutability's driver)
Fitipower FC0012 22 - 948 MHz
Fitipower FC0013 22 - 1100 MHz (FC0013B/C, FC0013G has seperate L band input)
FCI FC2580 146 - 308 MHz and 438 - 924 MHz

Looking around on aliexpress most at that price at FC0012 tuner based (even if they say R820T). There are a couple actual R828D dongles but the price shown seems to be one time thing "welcome deal"/75% off and the actual price is more like $25. Dang. Still, I'll keep my eyes on aliexpress now as well as ebay, so thanks.
You're on the right track, but cryptocurrency has unfortunately shown repeatedly that it is not the solution (nevermind the ubiquitous fraud, scammers, but nearly 2 decades in, there is no good easy-to-use and secure system, the UX sucks).

It does appear necessary to spread your risk across multiple unrelated financial institutions. Make multiple bank & ccard accounts, and do not link them. Far less convenient, but should improve your safety.

I think the two bullet points they listed for their project (other than using Rust) are often overlooked:

- Leaving out less commonly used features so as to reduce attack surface

- Developing an extensive test suite which even managed to find bugs in the original sudo

Which are the most important aspects when writing any safety-critical code, even moreso than rewriting in Rust!

>> If we continue to push back on bundling, we need to improve our tools and processes and policies to make it feasible to maintain unbundled packages. Otherwise, we need to build tools and processes and policies around bundled dependencies.

Or neither. The dependency hell created by that approach could be considered a bug with the software created that way - even a blocker. Like hey, your project isn't going to get included until it's not a giant spaghetti pile of dependencies.
It is just like when producers aggregate into cartels like the AMA (American Medical Association) so consumers aggregate into insurance companies (eg Medicare).

At the end the situation isn’t so great for people who fall through the cracks with unusual issues, but for common scenarios it’s great. The unusual issues should still have access to the ad-hoc market and usually there, producers (with all their resources and organization) have the advantage.
I am no fan at all of react or npm, but some frameworks do provide some helpful things that pure DOM APIs do not, so they still have a place I think.

So e.g. application state management and routing are two huge things you'll still need to implement yourself if you just use pure DOM APIs

Depending on the complexity of your app then that might not be such a big deal, but these extras are rapidly worth their weight in gold as soon as you go beyond a basic app. Unless you are using anything that needs NPM in which case you are fucked.

> Especially when the map is the same size of the object it represents.

Which map? Most maps that have the hypothetical landmass place it with the South Pole at its center, with land spreading outward as far as will fit with the known landmasses.

They also make it many times larger than Australia (usually to conform to the theory that the hemispheres should have equal landmass).

That would imply you also need $3 million today. Retirement will be more expensive then, but scaled in line with inflation.
