That depends entirely ok whether the event being reflected is local or global. If its the time of an solar eclipse, for example, then its unaffected by daylight rules - unlike business hours and such. Working with dates/timestamps is a nightmare, but appears simple at first blush.
HistoryHit and similar are amazing. As in - decades ago if you were a history nerd, your choice was to get a PhD and becomes a likely poorly paid professor. The opportunities for direct-to-consumer content via self-publishing and streaming are opening doors for all these niche specialists to make money doing what they love, and I think that is just awesome.

On Android the most reliable method I've found is to create another Google account, set it up as your "parent", then (while logged into that account) go to familylink.google.com and set app and content limits for the "child". You can block individual apps, set daily time limits for apps, and whitelist websites for browsers.
mb meat intake is positively correlated with having enough calories.

I.e. for people who are struggling to get enough to eat, of course they should eat meat. In contrast, I guess most readers of HN get enough calories and there will be no problem with eating veg

I work in ad tech and we had layoffs last year and no new headcount for this year (even backfills need approval from leadership). Our revenue was up, but IMO we way overtired during the pandemic so I doubt we will hire a lot of people for another 2 years.

The layoffs were mainly ICs so a lot of middle management is left trying to fight for scope to save themselves. I have a feeling that managers are going to be the target of layoffs this year.

Overall I am fortunate to have a job, and just trying to ride this one out for the next 1-2 years. I would like to get promoted or become a team lead/manager but I don’t see that happening right now.
I’ve never understood that.

To me mobile icons all look the same and it is highly stressful to scroll through pages of them. Even Apple is terrible if you just stop and think. Photos are just a meaningless pinwheel, the Settings are hidden behind a movie poster for The Golden Compass, if I had a Hacker News app it would get confused with all the other apps that have an H or N or Y for their icon or that are colored orange. As it is I can type “n” on my iPad and… it is auto suggested. I type “1” and it suggests my web based RSS reader - why are brands shooting themselves in the foot by getting lost in a maze of twisty icons that all look alike?

What I don’t understand is that I can frequently ‘grok’ icons on my desktop although I hardly ever use them (so much easier to hit the windows button and type 2 or 3 letters and hit enter). Steam will install icons for games I download an instantly I know that’s Atelier Sophie. I use Microsoft’s RDP client for iPad all the time and think it is great but the icon is completely meaningless, it is just some burnt umber wedges that look like the logo of a multimodal shipping company from the 1970s.
That is a specific person, so yes.
If people are addicted to something then the only thing they can do to stop being addicted is to quit cold turkey.

Now in some cases that may be harder to do. If one has a food addiction or a smartphone related addiction for example. But in those cases you can certainly cold quit certain addictive foods or apps. When people “cold turkey” quit unhealthy addictive foods people often say they these people are “on a diet.” But really what is going on is that these people have “cold turkey” quit eating the bad foods and only eat healthy foods.

Do the same with the internet. Cold turkey quit the addictive unhealthy junk apps like a food dieter would cold turkey quit eating addictive unhealthy junk food. Only use the internet STRICTLY for work/school or direct 1 to 1 communication with a loved one such a friend or a family member.

That’s how you stop spending time on the addictive feed.

Some people say that they have to use Facebook for work/school or whatever. In that case just treat it like email. Set a timer for 5 minutes. Use Facebook on your laptop (NOT your phone) for 5 minutes in the morning and then for 5 minutes in the afternoon. If you do this you can still use it for whatever without being addicted to the feed.

Definitely going to take a look! I wanted to have the seemless movement to different PCs experience so that's why I can't read events directly from evdev. For emulating it would probably be quite useful! And maybe also in conjunction with the current methods...

As for encryption I'm planning to use https://crates.io/crates/webrtc-dtls.

Udp also has the advantage of not needing to reconnect, which already makes it possible to switch between Wi-Fi and Ethernet seamlessly.

This is really misleading. They already have one of the largest "green" investments in the world and are still only getting pennies on the dollar back for it (Germany is not particularly sunny nor windy).

They still use massive amounts of coal compared to neighbors and the coal they use is lignite (aka Brown Coal aka the worst kind).

The only real change has been reducing overall electrical generation because of the shutting off of natural gas. A situation Germany is only in because of their steadfast refusal to adopt nuclear energy like their neighbors.
How do you delete “the internet?” Here I am life-wasting on HN.
>Plus, you don’t get a second chance fixing your own brain.

Says who?

I also believe your argument suffers from an attention fallacy. We allow (and encourage) people to do quite a lot of things that are outright more destructive and dangerous. Just walk past any gambling hall and have a look inside if you need an example. There are proper addicts there driven to extreme measures by desperation and tunnel views.

edit: If you need an example, a class mate of a very good friend of mine got into the habit of spending his pay check playing slots. He is currently serving time for cocaine smuggling after he ran out of options and couldnt see any other way out. Once losses are mounting peoples sanity goes quickly. Cocaine smuggling is by far not the worst thing he could have gotten himself into. And its not like putting him in detox for a week would have cleared his mind up as long as the debt is still there.

I'm not a sports person, or an organized-competition person for that matter, but I see a qualitative difference between "best bowler in school" and "setting world records for bowling."

I wouldn't say being the first is a waste of time, because I think virtually any effort at self-improvement has some value. But being among the best in the world, even in a smaller competitive environment, is extraordinary regardless of the intrinsic value of the activity.

It also reflects a certain tunnel vision which can be helpful or harmful later in life. But he'll be dining out on this story for a long time.
I think they are suggesting the app installed itself via some exploit in some messaging platform.

This lady could be one of the many people that don’t run updates often.

Sounds like it could also have been running in memory the way it was trying to prevent her from restarting.

Also this could have easily been on iOS as well, and fits the description of previous iOS exploits.

A similar thing happened at a company I worked for in the '80s, a 68k based Unix workstation maker named Callan Data Systems, named after David Callan who was one of its founders.

There were two other founders and they were all equal partners, so I asked one of them why Callan was the one it was named after.

What happened was that they had been unable to agree on a name all throughout the early stages of starting the company. They got to the point where they really need to incorporate to continue, but still could not agree on a name.

Tempers were rising and they decided to step away for a few days to calm down, and during that time two of them went out of town for a hunting trip. Callan stayed home.

When the other two got back Callan told them that he'd incorporated with a temporary name, which they could change when they finally thought of a real name they liked. The other two were annoyed, but agreed that this was better than having everything be on hold because they could not incorporate.

That temporary name was "Callan Data Systems" and they never did come up with a replacement, and stopped trying when it had been so long that changing the name would have been a pain.

BRINC Drones | https://brincdrones.com/ | Onsite in Seattle | Full-time | $150k-$225k + equity

BRINC Drones helps first responders with products that quickly and effectively respond to emergencies. Our technology lets first responders get eyes and ears on what's happening in indoor structures when it's too dangerous for people to enter - whether it be a fire, medical emergency, violence, or search and rescue. In March 2023, we released the Lemur 2, our latest and most advanced drone, and we started shipping it to customers the same year.

In addition to launching more advanced drones, we're also expanding our software ecosystem into realtime monitoring and fleet management, and we recently shipped the first version of our first web app: LiveOps. This app gives drone operators and first response teams access to real-time live-streaming drone data such as visual and thermal video feeds, 3D map data via point clouds, and a myriad of drone telemetry – it’s essentially a web-based drone fleet management software. But our vision isn’t just fleet management; LiveOps represents a critical part of BRINC’s transition from a company that just sells drones to a company that sells entire drone programs: we want to build out the entire drone ecosystem (both hardware and software) for our customers.

It’s an ambitious goal, but it’s one that we feel confident about – we’ve got a lot of interest from customers in what we’ve built so far, and we are seeking both a full-stack and a backend/platform engineer to join our engineering team and own the development of this web app and cloud ecosystem.

Job Postings:

- Senior/Principal Full-stack Engineer: https://app.dover.io/apply/brinc/a567bc8a-9d90-4961-9e30-e5f...

- Senior/Principal Backend & Platform Engineer: https://app.dover.io/apply/brinc/5aa2526c-472c-49b1-a1cf-8c5...

Some recent press:

- https://techcrunch.com/2023/03/02/brinc-lemur-2/

I'm the founding engineer for the cloud services engineering team at BRINC, so feel free to relay any questions about the role to me (dylan at brinc drones dot com, parse it yourself), but please apply through the job posting if you're interested in the role so that we can keep track of you!
After being a Chromebook user since 2013, last year I transitioned my latest Chromebook to a chrultrabook for privacy purposes and to actively avoid Google. I did install Linux on a Windows laptop initially, but the Chromebook keyboard layout is more modern given my usage (mostly web browsing and media consumption)

They also have a new forum as well if people have questions:
https://forum.chrultrabook.com/
I think the simplest way I can explain this is:

There is a long tradition of permitting academics to say things that we wouldn't normally allow people to say. The people saying these things normally need to back up their words in a long written argument with citations, etc, and do so in a fairly passive way (IE, publish it as an article in a journal, rather than an op-ed in a newspaper, or during a protest). Even then there can be a firestorm (see the response to The Bell Curve).

I'm pretty sure if we look back we can see historically that academics called for violence against Jews, Asians, Muslims, and many other ethnicities. At times, people have completely supported academics in their privilege, typically when the statements align with their own philosophies. Imagine what people said right after Pearl Harbor.

University presidents want to keep everybody happy- that includes professors, students, and people outside the university. A president like Gay probably thought that by making the statements she did, she was pissing off the fewest people- preserving academic freedom for professors while also carving out a space for protestors to say rather violent things. That sort of subtlety doesn't work when you're being grilled in front of congress- they want you to say "yes or no" (notice all three presidents were asked, and confirmed, their believe that Israel has a right to exist) with no context. If Gay had said "no it's not OK" then she would have returned to a firestorm by students on her campus, and if she said it was OK, then she would have returned to a different firestorm on campus.

I think a lot of the news coverage around this has unnecessarily heightened the level of severity in the claims of the protestors. I imagine many people who called for intifada didn't realize that some folks would perceive that as a direct attack on their lives. We already know many students don't know which river, or which sea is being referenced.

Of the three presidents, Kornbluth of MIT is the only one who will survive this. She has an excellent publication record, the full and total support of her institution, she is much smarter than Stefanik, and it helps that she's Jewish, because people levelling "antisemitism" claims against her just look kind of silly.

I agree that it would be fatalistic to not try to improve the situation using technology, I'm just trying to explain what happens as you try to do so with more planning.
A ton of people have the impression that "nobody hires in December" but it's the furthest thing from the truth.

Almost every job I've ever landed I interviewed in December. Just last month I interviewed a dozen people or so for roles in my company. My recruiter friends that I talked to all landed a bunch of offers last month.

Everyone is about to get swarmed with resumes right now but there's a pool out there with a three week headstart and less competition because of the reasoning I mentioned.
Things I did this year
The video shows passengers sitting calmly in a burning aircraft quickly filling with smoke, I presume awaiting further instruction, which may or may not have come from the crew. The scene almost defies belief.
One thing that helped me get rid of all of these time-wasting apps was deleting them from my phone, but allowing myself to use the app’s website. It only took a few days for that small bit of friction to make me want to avoid the apps altogether. I did this with all my social media apps a while ago and eventually deleted the accounts.

I recently had to do this with YouTube because YouTube Shorts were getting very addictive. I still use YouTube on my computer, but my overall usage is significantly down.
"While human vision is not as susceptible to adversarial perturbations as is machine vision (machines no longer identify the original image class, but people still see it clearly), our work shows that these perturbations can nevertheless bias humans towards the decisions made by machines."
Yes, but not what you're hinting at. The confounding variable is that California decided to let a bunch of violent criminals out of jail early in 2020 because of Covid first, then because of equity concerns.

It's unsurprising that letting murderers out of jail early increases the murder rate.

`core:crypto/sm3` is just one of the many cryptographic hashes that exist in Odin. You've just told me you have never done any cryptographic work like SSL, and how useful that is for things like encrypted web protocols.

As for TGA images, that is an image format that people still use, along with many others Odin supports. We want to be able to load an image regardless of its format, be it PNG, TGA, JPEG, etc.
But such a store doesn't need to be a dedicated app on the device. It can be a third-party website—indeed; that is how it would make the most sense.

If this were something people were clamoring for, it is likely it would already exist, because the barrier to creating a website for linking, aggregating and reviewing PWAs should be quite low, with the only real challenge being the accumulation of a critical mass of users.
Whether they are antisemitic or just indifferent to the plight of Jews is hard to say. Universities have felt compelled in the past to make statements and offer safe spaces to other vulnerable groups. What is different about Jews? One could speculate, but you would have to ask them.

I think it's differentiating waste that is burned in two categories: food and plant-based waste, which is renewable, and everything else that comes from non-renewable sources. But that's only a guess because those are typically the categories for waste separation in Germany.

Revisionist history of the incandescent lamp:

- 1840, first usable light bulb. Warren De la Rue enclosed a coiled platinum filament in a vacuum tube and passed an electric current through it. Worked fine. Platinum had a high enough melting point and could be drawn into wire, but was too expensive.

- 1840-1911 - era of crappy carbon filament light bulbs. Some fooling around with tantalum and osmium, but too expensive. Early tungsten work.

- 1906, William D. Coolidge at General Electric figures out how to make tungsten wire from tungsten powder. Finally, a cheap high-temperature (3410° C) wire. By 1911, GE is shipping tungsten-filament lamps. Same concept as de la Rue, but much cheaper. Tungsten filaments dominate incandescent bulbs thereafter.
> If people are addicted to something then the only thing they can do to stop being addicted is to quit cold turkey.

Haven't you gone on to prove yourself wrong by mentioning food diets? Many/most of which are not quitting something cold turkey?

Unless you're going to tell me that e.g. 'intermittent fasting' is quitting eating on Wednesdays or 0000-2200h cold turkey, like that was the addiction.
Currently at 80GW of solar and 66GW of wind with a goal of 215GW cumulative solar capacity by 2030. Roughly speaking, they’ll have over 300GW of wind and solar by the end of the decade assuming at least another 20GW of wind gets built. For comparison, this is five times more than all existing French nuclear generation capacity (61GW), and does not include hydro, pumped hydro, batteries, and interconnectors.

So the whole nuclear argument is frankly silly. This will be done before even a few GWs of nuclear were to come online.

Musk fired the majority of people working at Twitter, changed the brand, unbanned very controversial users, alienated most of the advertisers, etc etc etc. Talking about Twitter without talking about his leadership is to have a conversation without merit. What other topics are there? He owns the company. Every policy change over the past year has been his personal decision.
Not sure it is really a plus that Windows has ways to intercept filesystem operations. Antivirus scans make computers bog slow and might be worse than the virus. It might be better now but when OneDrive was new Microsoft used all their special access to the OS to make something slower and less reliable than Box, Dropbox, Google Drive and all the off-brand file sharing services. I’m not about to find out how it works now because once somebody scrambles my files for a product they spam me incessantly about they don’t get a second chance.
I buy and sell stuff on Facebook marketplace. I browse some niche groups but I don’t regularly engage otherwise. Half the time I go to check/update/add to my listings, I get lured into the doom scrolling trap. It’s amazing and frustrating how they cater content to you such that the moment you open the app, there is interesting content that just calls to you like a siren in dense fog.
