Fairphone 5: Keeping it 10/10?
Of course, but I don't think it's specific to "the west" or "corrupt societies". It's human nature. If you're part of a group and you speak against the group, esp. to another group, the group will move to destroy you.

It doesn't matter if you're right; it doesn't matter if the group is doing bad things; it doesn't matter if speaking up will help save lives.

The function of the group is to survive as a group; it will do whatever it takes to achieve that.

Laws that go against human nature fight an uphill battle; it doesn't mean we should not try, but it does mean we should be aware of the difficulty.
It's beyond that – culture. Being ambitious in US is rewarded and celebrated. Plus having the most powerful military in the world makes others want to invest more into the US due to the likelihood it will still be around.

Even after login with a FB account I get a popup saying "We can't find a Meta account that uses the same login information as your Facebook account", so you need a Meta account after all.

After confirming that I want to create a Meta account, I get a "Not available in your location" warning. Fuck Meta. Fuck geoblocking apps.
We are arguing semantics but IMO the sincerity is part of painting yourself in a good light. Saying you are perfect is not painting yourself in a good light, but making sure you attribute success also to your colleagues (I did x they did y) and mention good things you did, even with mistakes, ultimately tells good things about you.
If you mean with "lives improved" that they have locked people into their products, spying on them, profiling them, making us into their product for them to make lots of money from, yeah, you're totally right.
I would assume the people working in the Chinese factory have _some_ time off to go outside said factory? Or have the ability to turn in their notice and leave for a different job?

> This is no longer true, I believe (starting Dec 1 2023). You can buy the vignette online starting immediately

If that's true then it's possible that Asfinag (the toll agency) haven't updated their website. On trying a test purchase just now to buy a two-month or annual pass it still states:

"I'm a consumer

Digital 2-month vignettes and digital annual vignettes purchased today are valid from 25.12.2023 at the earliest due to the right of withdrawal when purchasing online. All other toll products can be used immediately. (More info in the FAQ)

I represent a company

The right of withdrawal does not apply to commercial customers; purchased digital toll products are therefore valid immediately. (More info in the FAQ)"
I didn’t say it will become cheaper overtime.

if "hostile environment for online businesses" means they aren't free to do as they please without repercussions and do have to implement at least the simplest and most basic consumer protection rules then yes, i absolutely feel well served.

you're picking out the cookie banner (which is annoying mostly because companies aren't implementing it properly) which is just a small part of a wealth of regulations which give us control over our data. and then you're ignoring all the other extremely valuable regulations that protect customers. and online shops are still able to make a profit here. they just can't completely abuse their customers as they please. yet. for the most part.
Maybe its a Swedish thing, but most of the population live in Stockholm or south of it, so we do not call Stockholm "southern Sweden". Southern tend to mean Scania or the other south parts of the country.
Assigning the scroll wheel to the grab action in Untitled Goose Game was a stroke of genius of his and inspired me to do the same in various shooting games, as I had a tendency to move the mouse ever so slightly when I fired - instant results, but only works well with at most semi-automatic weapons.
I agree 100% with you but I will mention three that, for now, are still decent (although not 100% perfect): ID Software, Valve, FromSoftware.

I had to look at over 20 studios that built my favorite games in 1990-2010 to find those 3. And ID Software had the drama with Mick Gordon, for which I am quite angry at them, I hate Valve's focus on boxes in multiplayer games, and FromSoftware cares too little about hacks and in general don't provide a PC experience up to what I would expect considering the general quality of their games.

So yeah, I only know of indie or very new studios that are building pure, clean, fun games nowadays.

Very few interviews I’ve done had a real technical component. Most have been talk about what you’ve done, how it brought value, how I approach problems, etc.

This is for data science, data engineering and cloud architecture positions.

Whataboutery. And your statement of Hamas "starting" this fight ignores both the historical Israeli agression, oppression, landtheft, and apartheid suffered by Palestinians, or in the particular, the "administrative detention" used by Israel to incarcerate many without trial (or certainly, fair trial), which can be seen as a form of hostage taking for which Hamas' action would be tit-for-tat, directly antecedent to this Likudnik war.
I am not important enough to be receiving crackpot proofs, but if I ever do, I will enthusiastically suggest they formalize their work in Lean. Hmm, I wonder whether that would lead to crackpots making a fuss at the Zulip chat.
I have family in Israel, people who protested against the judicial overhaul every week for weeks. Some of them are also in the military, saying after the Hamas attacks "now is the time to kill arabs". - The way Israel is reacting to the hamas atrocities [1] will not make Israel a safer place. We haven't eradicated Taliban in 20 years, but sat with them at the table after 20 years and negotiated. - Hamas was built in 1988 after the first intifada. Hezbollah after Israeli invasion in Lebanon 1982. The more military force Israel uses, the more orphans it creates who will run into the arms of another group.

There is only one way to solve this, and that's by giving Palestinians a life that's worth living. Not by denying them basic rights. In the West Bank there are 40 checkpoins, nightly raids, 500-700 children who are detained every year. Military rule for Pals, civilian rule for settlers. So if a palestinian child throws a stone, he can get 10-20 years in prison, a settler? Nothing usually. We have 700,000 settlements built in West Bank in the past years.

All of this injustice will create the next group, even if the last hamas person is killed.

[1] In the current Gaza war, Israel is withholding water, food, medicines, and electricity for 2.1 mil. civilians, 1.1 mil children is against Geneva Conventions. It punishes civilians. And destroying the complete infrastructure of Gaza (hospitals, schools, universities, etc) will make Gaza uninhabitable, and that plus the genocidal language of Netanyahu and his cabinet (Netanyahu comparing palestinians to "Amalek", which the old testament says to destroy--their women, children, the babies; Gallant comparing them to human animals; Herzog saying there are no innocent people in Gaza, blaming the civilians as well)
After 14 years that's the best you can come up with?
Hamas started this last flare up only if history begins on Oct 7. In fact, Hamas's action on that day is an inevitable reaction to decades of systemic oppression, unprovoked aggression and ethnic cleansing.
Thank you for this comment, it genuinely made my day better knowing that there are still people inside our techno-system who are fighting the good and moral fight.

Current state of TLS session resumption tracking
Dear HN, few years ago big news were around about TLS session (resumption) tracking.

I find no current information whether this issue has been fixed or if current browsers mitigate it in private mode; as it seems to basically be a feature I assume any sort of fix can only be in context of private mode (per tab in safari or per-container in firefox) or history-clearing?

Neither I can find a "test page".

Do we have any?

Thankyou
Thousands and thousands of kids have died in the span of a few months. More than 8000 is the latest number!

More than in any other recent war. It's a grotesque display of war actual war crimes now excused by a torrent of fake stories that keeps getting debunked later like the one with "40 dead babies! Absolutely vile and inexcusable!

Don't spread misinformation that it's "just Hamas" that's targeted. It's everyone because they wan't to annex the whole region Risk style, it's bloody classic geopolitics backed by the worlds most powerful military.

Let that sink in, the worlds most powerful militaries have murdered over 8000 kids in the span of 2 months. The west is the moral low ground. We'll do anything for power, resources and money like so many wars before, like so many coups, death squads, and dictators propped up by us.

Hardliner Israeli settlers have been stealing private property for decades before oktober 7. while murdering youth on the borders of Palestine while cheering from luxurious well kept gardens.

I feel bad for all jews getting spearheaded in this very geopolitical conflict. Many if not most do no stand with the military regime currently at war with their neighbours.
It should be a transparent GPU like M1 Ultra.
Yeah, in the end it all comes down to game theory.
It is important for public accountability that a public body tracks these kinds of things. Why should citizens of a country have to become experts in a subject when the government should be transparent about what they're doing in the first place? This is pretty basic stuff.

Also, as I said, there are other things they're not being transparent about, like the sums of money used to promote the scheme. You can't find that on the blockchain.
That's what I was expecting this item to be about!

He didn’t say about Brave, he said about him. Considering the number of replies you’ve made bickering, I’d say he’s correct.
I said that X is bad but Y is worse. It seems you're not even trying to challenge that claim, instead you're saying X is a "fucked western hypocritical way of thinking" and "you would change your opinion from X to Y if you had family in that situation". Then your concluding sentence is "Y is actually better than X" but you didn't even make the case for that in the first place. Unconvincing. I am honestly disgusted at the virtue signalling and moral grandstanding. You would condemn people to the worst depths of poverty because ... well it's not entirely clear to me what moral depravity would cause someone to adopt that position.

This entire region is a clusterfuck of, no that side did this first, no the other side did that. No matter what point you are starting at you can go further back in history to say the other side did X.

That said, oct 7 was a clear escalation by hamas and was much more violent than what came before. Unsurprisingly that garnered a response.

> While the whole situation is a mess, Hamas definitely started this particular fist-fight.

It's an insanely complicated mess going back a hundred years. Trying to figure out "who started it?" is impossible because at this point we're so far from the domain of applicability of "who started it?" that it isn't a coherent or well defined question any more.
I wonder if there's a German word for that feeling. The Traveler mystery sucks, but what really ripped my heart out was realizing I'm never going to know the ending to the mysteries and cliffhanger of Beyond Good & Evil after Michel Ancel retired.

> I think that people perceive databases to be slow, not because they are slow, but because they often interact with them in the context of persisting data to disk, from across a network, by passing strings back and forth which must be parsed, compiled and executed. If you’ve ever optimized a program, you know that I just listed pretty much the slowest operations you can do on a computer.

I’m sorry, but the difference between "databases are slow" and "the only way I can interact with databases is slow" is only pedantics. I understand that, as a database developer working hard to squeeze every bit of performance possible this is frustrating, but as a developer I couldn’t care less about the difference.

I went to her twitter, used search for "hostages" and found nothing. So I wonder how she will counter the IDF/Israel Gov saying that the only reason Hamas negotiated hostages, was due to the Ground Invasion and the threat of destroying its military arm.

Especially, since the last kidnapped civilians, Avera Mengistu and Hisham al-Sayed, are still held there since at least 2014 (!). (Do I really need to mention hostages is a war crime in the eyes of the ICC?)

So for me, I will keep buying from Amazon, Google and every cloud operator that might help bringing those civilians back home (same loose causality used by Ariel). Any other initiative to remove extremist from ruling over the Palestine while they are stopping any peace initiative, is welcomed also.

> My limited understanding of Clojure's HMR is that there aren't n distinct versions of a class/function. It's actually removing the old ones from memory and replacing them.

It is almost both. Clojure creates n distinct versions of the function (which are in fact objects and subject to garbage collection). The symbol of the function is rebound (technically this language is wrong) to point to the most recent one. Then, usually, the Java garbage collector deletes the old object.

So it is possible (likely under some code styles) that old versions of a function can hang around in a REPL environment if they ended up embedded in a data structure. However, if you make the call by resolving the function's symbol then that will reliably call the most recently def-ed version.

For example:

(defn poor-style [] 1)

(def object
{:fn poor-style
:call (fn [] (poor-style))})

(defn poor-style [] 2)

(prn ((:fn object))) ; => 1, calls the old embedded function

(prn ((:call object))) ; => 2, calls a function that resolves the symbol, finds the new version.

(prn (poor-style)) ;=> 2, just call the new function
