There's a difference between "you/I can audit it" and "we (collectively) can audit it".

You're not living in a vacuum. The more users (and perhaps more importantly, contributors) an open source product has, the less likely it has intentional backdoors built into it.
It is, and has been for a couple years! Currently weekends only, alas--but great, especially if you've got a place to stay up there.

If you're in the Denver area & looking to get to the slopes without having to drive yourself, there's a number of organizations and clubs around that charter busses; I had a good three or four year streak of working while riding a bus to and from Winter Park/Copper Mountain on Tuesdays and getting some turns in midday when my life still fit well around that sort of thing. (I've small kids in daycare now, so am on hiatus from that arrangement.)

The guy is from UAE. Their GDP is at least 1/3 from oil revenue. What do you expect? :)
Perhaps they meant 'disable the ad trackers'.
I like the idea, and with something like say Chrome, this is excellent.

However each upgrade of k8s needs planning. Need to check through the list to see what APIs are broken, and figure out if anything needs changing, preparing for it, including stuff the cloud provider has chucked in the mix.

Probably to the point I feel like a cluster of clusters would be safer, so you can slowly roll it out.
I know the article was about movies that persuaded viewers to _go_ to a certain country, but I am reminded of a former colleague who explained to me that it was actually a TV show ("The Mechanism", a drama about political corruption in Brazil) that finally convinced him he needed to take his young family and _leave_ Brazil for a better future.

Of course I had to give it a watch after a review like that. Good show.
Your Kubernetes setup is just totally fuck off, fire the team and hire better ones.
They aren't, but you shouldn't delete data in general off a device that isn't yours. Confiscate it like anything else and have the school provide it instead.

If the school cannot provide a necessary resource, that's a larger problem.
I believe you're right that it can't see it without the bridge board.
Pretty nondescript. I just sent them the code and explained how to replicate it. They said they'd patch it and then they did haha. They offered me some in-game currency as a reward (20,000 gems, which I think is equivalent ~115 bucks).
Agreed, that's a tough pill to swallow. We envisioned trial period to let people make up there mind, but free for the first few users is another route. We'll noodle it when we loop back to pricing. Appreciate the feedback, it's helpful.

Classic baby/bathwater disposal problem. There are plenty of medicines that are beneficial for some applications but harmful for others. Maybe all of them, to some extent? That's why the authors wrote dozens of other sentences in that article.

Isn't emulation a much better approach for that purpose? It's always been unrealistic keeping functional native systems around forever, whether that's game consoles or computer platforms including OSes and drivers etc.

> macOS's player base has always been in the basement.

Unfortunately I agree. There seems to be a recent initiative by Apple to promote macOS gaming (most notably through the game porting kit, but also via pretty good native gamepad support, and I've recently noticed a "game performance mode" – very unlike Apple!).

That said, I'm not counting on Apple's commitment regarding long-term binary compatibility – it's clearly not a priority for iOS either.
I thought I remembered something like this— maybe it's a higher question count or lower time limit for e.g. commercial?

> I don't believe monopoly was a good word choice to pivot from past to future on, I do think there's much to be gained from encouraging traditional investigative journalism to grow

Agreed. But having a reasonable business model is hard, and there hasn't been real progress at this front for the past twenty years or so. In other words, what the piece lacked is the competition policy aspect and the Big Tech's capture of much of the ad revenues. Note also that the same issue affects science; OA hasn't really caught up, not at least in the way envisioned. Meanwhile, certain political forces attack both media and science, so it is not only about money.

> As for the second, surely that was meant to be a call to enable ad blockers and dodgy source filters.

Hopefully. But then again, newspapers are probably the worst in the town in this regard. Taking the previous point into account, sometimes I think they've built their own demise.
Reminds me of Ray Peat: https://raypeat.com/articles/aging/aspirin-brain-cancer.shtm...

Disclaimer: A lot of his stuff is pretty out there, and some of it may be outright wrong. I don’t recommend following his advice, but a lot of his writing is at least interesting.
He did a lot of strange stuff (which you probably didn't notice on your first viewing) which people picked apart in interesting visual analysis. For instance, he jumped out of the plane with a mini fire extinguisher strapped to his leg, hidden under his pants. Why? We don't know, but there are several hypothesis.

If you feel the urge to ask me what those hypothesis are - then I think you'll see the point.
It could be argued hustling is mediocrity in itself. A life spent chasing some base dragon: money, fame, prestige, what-have-you. Something that has been done countless times before. Instead, why not do something no one has done before? The very antithesis of mediocrity!

Though I don't disagree that "lying flat" is any better.

>Do you normally solve interpersonal conflicts in your life with physical violence?

There are tons of situations where violence is appropriate for interpersonal conflict, usually when someone won't listen to reason.

If I went into your house, ignored what you were saying, and then started smashing things or molesting your children, would you just sit there and protest politely?
Curious to hear more about this theory?
I think that "major.minor" is a useful feature of semantic versioning, that you can specify breaking changes vs non-breaking changes. "Announcement" version numbers may also be useful, although perhaps not as much, it seems to me. However, one thing I think would be useful is numbering of versions of "configuration-safe" upgrades.
I love rational fiction. Yes to Methods of Rationality, Mother of Learning, and also Paranoid Mage and a few others, including Majority by Abby Goldsmith.
It was just annoying to me. They take away trading cards and game boys and at the same time this was when they were removing monkey bars and tether ball courts due to lawsuits.

What do you want students to do during recess? There's only 1 full basketball court and 2 single courts. We only had access to half the grass field for whatever reason so that limited soccer (and yeah, no full contact so Murica Football was soft banned. You could throw the pig skin and that's it).

If that's a shared experience, it's no wonder my generation is so scrutinous of authority.

Pros: plenty of tech jobs, mountains and national parks right next door, very clean and safe city, healthy and well educated population, delta hub.

Cons: the lake may kill us one day, or the house prices.
On the other side of things, I show by construction how many well-known functions can be implemented as primitive recursive functions: https://www.nayuki.io/page/primitive-recursive-functions

One challenge I found is that I have to set the upper bounds conservatively. For example for sqrt(n), the loop actually counts all the way up to n, because in the worst case, sqrt(1) = 1. As another example, to find the nth prime number, I search up to 2^n, because a conservative lower bound is that there is at least one prime number between 2 and 4, between 4 and 8, between 8 and 16, etc.
This is the kind of thing I like to ask GPT4. It can usually explain what's going on.

> Oh yea I remember HIBP has an online API. Don't use this.

That's not the greatest advice IMO. The API gets updated data more frequently, doesn't require that you transmit the password or a useable hashed form, and it's dead simple to consume. I'd argue that it's more effort to maintain an internal store and synchronization infrastructure, and you're less likely to accidentally breach anonymity and leak a weak hash by using the API than you are rolling your own query against the raw data.

It's also used by hundreds of bigcorps and government agencies who have way more pedantic lawyers than you're likely to have. If they couldn't find a good reason not to use it I doubt yours will.
That appears to have been the point.
Dunedin, NZ for the last 10 years.

Pros: our family are all here so we don’t have to spend holidays coming back anymore. Lifestyle wise - it’s quiet and everything we do is within about a 15 minute drive from our house. The kids school is a 2 min walk, the center of town is just over 10 mins away. Houses were affordable when we brought.

Cons: it’s far away from everything and the airport connections are extra shitty since covid. Housing is expensive. It’s quiet…

> Passkeys are effectively SSH keys under the hood.

Yes, that's the common rebuttal. It's resistant to MITM and phishing, but it's still not two-factor.

If you store your passkey on a yubikey with PIN, I suppose it's two-factor in the sense that you need the key and a PIN, but you can only store so many passkeys that way.
> No idea what a "cheap soap opera" is even supposed to be

https://youtu.be/MFlz5cCDMmc?t=25
Yes, pretty much. As the owner you should be able to look at the secret, copy it, publish it, whatever you want. At least with USB keys it is opt in. With passkey I'll be forced to give up my ownership because there are literally no viable options other than Google and Apple for smartphones.
That is exactly what happened. And the QA person used the same printer. In that scenario I might not notice either.
> without being anglophone and teaching English, or a “digital content creator”?

given that you're on hackernews, I guess I should let you know that being a software engineer is the ultimate hack for being able to travel wherever you want.

I started freelancing while travelling and then joined the ground floor of a startup. I took a huge paycut vs working for a FANG but I get to change countries every 1-2 months and no one cares as long as I get my work done. 20+ countries in after doing this for 7 years straight.

Agreed, serial killers are rare, and it's likely that unsavory forms of discrimination will become commonplace. People will be eager to use genetic profiles aka "all available information" to "inform" all kinds of decisions.
The flip side of this is that if you threaten to bail every time there's a "user-hostile move", you'll quickly run out of software/products to use. A few years ago there were users complaining about firefox being "user-hostile" because of [mr robot promo/pocket/addon signing/whatever], but if you bailed on firefox because those what are you going to use?
'carbon budget' is not the way.

If these environmentalists didn't push to shut down the nuclear reactors, we would have more than enough energy. We should be set on using more energy, not less and there are plenty of ways to generate it other than burning carbon.

You can go to the most isolated towns on earth and you'll find people who speak English working in nearly any facility. You'll find signs in English even when you're in the extremely rare case where nobody is speaking up and volunteering to help you in English. Needing to read the language before traveling is putting the cart before the horse. The vast majority of people don't get good at a language or even bother learning fundamentals until they're in a situation or region where the language is used.

I've traveled with people who are (forgive me for the bad wording) equally as easily confused as your wife, if not worse, and into the middle of jungles and villages of far off places. In the 19th century this would've been extremely difficult and dangerous. In the 21st century, you're honestly probably safer wandering around cluelessly in more of the world than you are in the US.

And I never felt like I was missing out by not being able to read a random thing in a language I don't know. Tourist locations, especially places like museums and historical sites, will almost always have full English translations of whatever the local language is.

There's no "winging" it. You can plan for a country even when you don't know the language. Just save locations on google maps and go.

Super cool. I'd be interested if he has a write up for how he creates the animations, especially the panning and zooming around, which is quite nice.
> My password manager is still protected by a good password + 2FA.

So yeah...your second factor is an actual second factor.

I completely get the argument that passkeys are an improvement for most people. But if you're already using password + pw manager + 2FA, it seems to me that you're a good bit more secure than a passkey alone.

I was really looking forward to 48 fps - the juddering in wide panning shots on 24 fps always takes me out of the immersion so I was hoping the cinema world could move forward.

There was just something very wrong with it. It kept feeling like suddenly parts of the movie were sped up and going at 2x speed. To the point where I wonder if the cinematographer was just not experienced with the technology to make it work right (like, maybe there are collaries to the 180 rule that need to be experimented with)

I watched it in 2D, I'm sure for 3D it makes a whole different experience.
The way safety is handled in real world situations is through legal and monetary incentives. If the tanker you are driving to the gas station blows up then people get fired (no pun intended) and face legal repercussions. This is the case for anything that must operate in the real world. Safety is defined and then legally enforced. AI safety is no different, if an AI system makes a mistake then the operators of that system must be held liable. That's it, everything else about extinction and other sci-fi plots has no bearing on how these systems should be deployed and managed.

I have no idea what people talk about when they say LLMs must be safe. It generates words, what exactly about words is unsafe?

There is a specific frequency of light that can demolish brain-plaque in mice, not sure what the results are in humans but plaque is perhaps 30-40% the alzheimers equation in humans in my current understanding.
This was my first thought.

It's a complicated topic, biochemically / physiologically, however. Guidelines and recommendations have changed many times in the past couple of decades. With the scale of epidemiological data collection and specific studies carried out in recent years, conclusions are still rather "mixed".

There are many reasons to think, mechanistically, that aspirin (acetylsalicylic acid) should come out "net positive" in its effects on human health. But, even some of the "prostaglandins", for example, can be important in endothelial function and health (in a positive way).

I will note that I haven't kept up with this topic much in at least 5 or so years, but, I can point to a couple of sources with some analysis / discussion that should be of use to most, I think:

https://www.cuimc.columbia.edu/news/aspirin-making-sense-cha...

https://www.uspreventiveservicestaskforce.org/uspstf/recomme...

https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/fullarticle/2791399

https://www.annualreviews.org/doi/10.1146/annurev-pharmtox-0...

I specifically remember concerns roughly 10+ years ago that some of the expected net benefits might, in fact, actually be net harms in the broader population - particularly for other NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs), but, even, at some point not long thereafter, for "aspirin" as well. I may dig out that info if I get a chance to try to refresh, myself, and will comment again if / when I do.

I always think of Lewis Black's bit on this, though (while pointing out that this is the nature of science and its best to go with the best info available at any time, generally, IMO):

Why U.S. Doctors and Pharmacists Are in Revolt
Hmm. I see issues about finding executable-but-not-readable files, but nothing about `access(X_OK)` specifically (though GitLab's search may be failing here). Anyways, there are a number of…unfortunate behaviors that are baked in too deeply and take far longer to uproot than anyone likes. For example, the `EXISTS` predicate checked for readability…probably what was usually wanted, but sadly falls over when a broken symlink is left laying around. That one was fixed recently, but they crop up often enough.

Also note that while Windows might have POSIX APIs, sometimes the semantics are just not quite right. File permissions is one such place where things "exist" but act like they're in an alternate dimension (e.g., what would `umask` do on Windows?).

Congratulations again for the top story, Daniel! I was hacking on MTGA since you posted this article and spoke a little about that with you on GitHub [0].

For anyone interested, I'm _inactively_ working on an unofficial client of MTGA which does hardly anything meaningful for now. The vision is to provide some automation for playing ranked games and stronger bot opponents. Sadly I was distracted lately away from the project and am still puzzled how to make a good UI to see things clearly. I can't even estimate when it will be barely useful.

Beside that, I'm still very interested in any game hacking story of Daniel and anyone else! Please tell me more about how to spot such bugs, how not to worry being banned after such hacking, how to `disclosing the bug to them` like @aethros commented, how to structure an unofficial card game client, and other stories. Thank you!

> For instance, he jumped out of the plane with a mini fire extinguisher strapped to his leg, hidden under his pants. Why? We don't know, but there are several hypothesis.

I think this is part of my point because it's obvious why: he crashed the plane on purpose in an extremely dry area, so he took a fire extinguisher with him in hopes of extinguishing any fire he started. He concealed it because he was faking the crash. He's also an idiot there as well because it took him a while to get to the crash site, which was much too long for a mini fire extinguisher to be useful.

So see? It's obvious and not interesting. He's just an idiot.

Granted, what the other commenter pointed out is indeed an interesting facet, which is to your original point as well, but it's more to do with engines and planes being interesting.
Maybe have GPT refactor imports to fit your naming conventions. Na mean?
