lol, this reminded me why I tell devs that they should be the first to QA their stuff. So they can confirm intended behavior. Indeed it’s a cool feature from CloudFlare to obfuscate all mailto links. Now you know. I was a bit curious when you claimed FastMail has the best anti spam and you rarely get junk. Even with email mx verification and all, with a p2p spam list, and a fingerprint - I still get plenty of spam email or unwanted marketing spam.
My dude, that is the coolest thing I have seen. The engineering and design required to make it reliable and safe. Thank you for sharing.
>They were kind, more humanizing than middle class housewives

Honestly most "rich rich" people I've come across are like that. Most "snobby" rich people are not honestly that rich at all, comparatively, or are very new money etc. (think of "dude who sold their startup for 20 million").
I think that's not what people would normally call "the distribution" :) systemd, coreutils, ssh, shell, ... come from CentOS.

(Hi Pádraig!)
You are right. On the flipside however this can lead to fatalism of the "if I can't change anything why even bother"-kind.

If you want to form a habit of doing sports for example, it certainly makes a difference whether you see yourself as a unsporty lazy-ass that will never achieve anything, or whether you see yourself as a unsporty person still looking for a way to get into this and make it part of your life.

What I think is important is to break habits out of band. If you are eating unhealthy or too much a good starting point is to limit your food ordering, cook yourself more. And then you can control what you can cook by buying the right things in the right amount. Ideally you don't go grocery shopping hungry then.

So make following your habit the thing that requires extra steps and is complicated, while the better alternative should be easy, available and fill you with some sort of joy. For me jogging became about listening to new music albums or my favourite podcast while exploring new parts of town. So instead of just moving my body, the sports part was actually just a nice side effect to an activity I actively enjoyed.

Sure, depending on your condition, such simple tricks might not work for everybody, but my point is: The mind is powerful. It tricks you into many bad habits, it can also trick you into the good ones if you wield it the right way.

Raw willpower alone will not help you, you also need to identify patterns and avoid creating situations where you fall back, depending on your situation this might mean even things like totally restructuring your life, cutting off contact, moving somewhere else, etc.

I was especially impressed to see that this was rolled out on an entire 3.5km-long loop, rather than some small localized attraction.

It's interesting not just because of the engineering that was done, but because it shows what 1900 people thought "the future" would be like. I'm guessing they expected moving sidewalks to become common around cities by now.
Don't most large airports have moving walkways? I've seen them quite plentiful abroad.
I enjoy Scheme R5RS-style minimalism as a hobby, but if a team of ten works that way we end up with ten mutually incompatible mini-frameworks, which is a lot more to learn and test than a single good one.
According to the article "hundreds" of experiments showed an effect. Then it goes on to talk about the reproducibility crisis, but in this case it has been reproduced, no? At least, that's what the article itself says.

Link to actual debunk study is dead, but "it now appears that ego depletion could be completely bogus" seems too strong. Certainly in my own experience something like ego depletion is very real – maybe not exactly as described, but you do run out of bandwidth at some point, so to speak. One of the reasons this is hard to verify experimentally is that, in my personal experience, everything is fine up to a point, after which it all breaks down. You can't easily re-create that in an experiment.
Thanks for the downvotes - have we forgotten this while furry in the code crap, so fast?
Also: The power they would make would be worth more, making the project infeasible?

Mid level escalators have a very definite purpose as people wouldn't walk up that steep slope before.

Moving walkways along flat surfaces though? Its very hard to make them attractive. Most people like to walk a little, certainly we are built for it genetically and most people don't walk as much as they should in any case. In terms of mass transit nobody has ever got the safety and space issues to work. They only really have tended to work in airports where there are sometimes very large distances to traverse, and you need an (actually pretty slow moving for safety) solution for the elderly etc. who aren't as mobile. Even at an airport unless distances are massive and people have giant luggage most will prefer to walk, or only take the moving walkway for novelty value.

> His team has 10 people. Two of them can write code for analytics and models. The other 8 "manage projects", whatever that means.

Not disregarding your point, I think we all agree Boeing sounds like bureaucracy hell, but could it be that the 8 who are "managing projects" are in fact managing contractors or outsourced employees who are writing code?

I worked with a large multi-national fashion company, and they had an app development team that consisted of a product manager, scrum master, and senior technical advisor. You could look at them and say that 2/3 being non-technical was a problem, or you could look past that team to the several developers in India who weren't exposed to the rest of the company or clients/collaborators, and who actually got the work done.

This was posted to HN a few months back and I found it quite interesting:

https://gwern.net/nicotine

Nicotine itself is very effective at causing the brain to form habits. So that makes quitting cigarettes extra hard!

But we may be able to use it as a tool for developing other habits.

Glad you managed to find a solution that worked for you. Your technique seems good to stop doing something. But how do you make yourself start doing something you don't want to do? :)
Thanks for the kind words and the offer of support.

Right now there is no affiliates or monetization etc. I just found myself in the same position as you and wanted to offer what I learned to others.

I have EAP-PEAP wrapping MSCHAPv2[1]. You might still be learning, but I suspect you already know more than I do about this stuff because I pretty much just stuck the right settings into the Unifi controller and poked at it until it started working :).

On Android, I set "use system certificates" and "Domain: radius.jumpcloud.com"[0]. On Mac, I'm given the option to verify the certificate and I can see that it chains up to their publicly-trusted CA. The vendor seems to assume that I'll be hard-coding their certificate in my MDM, but I've not needed to. The Mac wasn't happy when the certificate was rotated, but the Android and Linux devices I have were perfectly content.

My AP controller also has a valid certificate, but it's not in play. As a user, I need a username and password for MSCHAPv2, and to convince the client that the certificate is OK -- which is easy, when the client is willing to use the system trust store :). I'm not provisioning client certificates, so I don't need to generate a root for that purpose. And it's for home, so I only need to worry about provisioning for two people.

I really don't like setting trust bits on root certificates, even ones that I generated myself. Been there, would prefer a bit more certainty that I'm not being spoofed by my own leaked root certificate. I'm much happier trusting Web PKI than I am trusting anything of my own that's sufficiently accessible as to be usable for this kind of thing.

[0]: Yep, I'm using a hosted provider that's not your employer, sorry :P.

[1]: WPA-3 SAE is nice, and it would be really nice if we could use something including that for the EAP. SAE solves the spoofing issue for non-Enterprise use-cases, unless someone trusted with the key goes rogue. Per-user SAE could mean that the rogue user can only spoof themselves, I think?

Ask HN: Microsoft crawls private links – how can this be legal?
I've built a tiny private website to share wedding photos. In order to protect the privacy of my guests, I've implemented authentication via supabase's magic link – guests need to enter their mail address and get an access link with a short-lived token sent to their mailbox. Unfortunately, this didn't work for users of mailboxes hosted with Microsoft, because Microsoft clicks all links in emails for "security" purposes. I've run some experiments and they seem to download all assets from the website linked to, including images, and try to crawl all other pages that can be reached through the first link in the mail, rendering not only the magiclink useless, but also downloading massive amounts of password protected images - a clear violation of GDPR. Why hasn't this been stopped?
Reframing the question is not answering the question. Why isn't a computer tricking me into conversing with it spam?
My experience is: As long as you don't write about something really controversial you won't get negative feedback. Frankly, in the beginning you may not get any feedback at all

So, beside of disabling comments I'd suggest to start writing about something where no one can have really strong opinions. This will give you a good feeling about blogging.

I get sometimes feedback via mail and sometimes hints about bugs in the presented code of a posts. Which I'm really thankful for. Blogging is a great experience and people are really friendly out there. Try it out!
Seems like the criterion should be the same as that for extradition.

Have you ever developed, operated and maintained a distributed system?
Honestly, if you want soda or wine or beer or such, don't buy "good tea", buy crazy blended teas with maple syrup or fruit in them. Something that's closer to what you're replacing. I feel like part of the difficulty is people trying to replace something that's a lazy comfort consumption with something that feels like a punishment. You don't quit eating McDonalds by going "but I could eat kale instead".

You want something that's 3/4 of the way there. I've started making my own sugar syrups with cinnamon in them for my decaf coffee because it gives me a lot of the same "sweet + spicy" flavor I like without as much sugar. Stuff like that helps a lot, but it'll depend on what you like for it. Maybe you really want cold drinks, and hot drinks substitute poorly? Have you considered better/nicer seltzer waters for that?
Agricultural fertilisers contribute substantially to microplastic in UK soils
I am almost completely deaf on my right side, having lost hearing in two separate episodes. The first only took the upper frequencies, so I was able to wear an in-ear hearing aid to compensate. I absolutely hated wearing it and eventually stopped and just made do. When I lost the rest of the hearing, then I was a candidate for a bone anchored hearing aid and that is a completely different beast. I can wear it all day with zero discomfort since the processor sits behind and above my ear and there’s nothing in my ear. If you still have bone conduction function, for sure ask your audiologist about it!
The integration of government and these big businesses is one thing. The fact that it always seems to run in the direction of undermining citizen safety and protections, and weakening the country's capacity to actually hold these companies accountable to even national level interests is astonishing.

What purpose does this integration serve if not to allow the government leverage? These days you have the US government acting like its a 2nd-world power, just desperately trying to hang on to any businesses willing to grace the US with their presence, instead of a nation that holds the key to glibal economic power. Frankly it's pathetic.
So does world. But we are talking about particular website.
To the first point, I get the heuristic of a cost-benefit analysis of buying vs renting, with hidden costs being things like maintenance (liabiliities), opportunity cost, transactional convenience (friction). But this heuristic is just that, it has no validation power over e.g. the commenter who pointed out "I want the long car rides to be in my own car which I know and love". Etc. Your mistake is using a heuristic (from idealized spherical cow economics) as a totalizing theory for human motivations.

To the second point, what a dining room offers is social intimacy and formality at once. This is something a kitchen table does not do (formality, think a White House dinner), and a restaurant cannot do either (intimacy, think traditional cultural celebrations at home such as Chinese New Year entailing many social rituals and practices). A dining room has the fundamentally distinct property of being a setting for both. That's the actual source of disagreement which is why there were so many objections by other commenters given your continued insistence that "it's not that different".
That's still just willpower, usually people need more. A combination of willpower, friction and substitution is usually effective.

Anything with a list of people with enough information for you to figure out a way to contact them can be used for dating.

I remember reading a newspaper story maybe a decade or so ago about California officials being unhappy that someone who was on the California registered sex offense list was using it as way to find other men who had committed the same offense in hopes of finding dating partners who would not be put off by his crime.
We are at the all-time low when it comes to people trust in science and science related institutions. And the scientists have mostly themselves to blame for this sad state of affairs.
Apple will have to. If EU forces browser choice to iOS, there is a considerable possibility of the last bastion of browser diversity to be lost.

I know, it's kind of hilarious considering Apple, but it's chrome 70%, Safari 20% and the rest is various Chrome-based browsers (e.g. Edge) and Firefox with 3.35%.

So Apple has a choice of losing control of the most important app or improving their product, so there is no reason to switch. I am pretty sure they love control more than anything.

Not many people can understand a very large code base without taking notes, using an IDE, or similar tooling.

It's too vague. See through the right lens, the current infosphere is entirely adversarial. Advertisers want to separate you from your money. Political machines will say anything to get your vote, externalities be damned. For these purposes AI is no more effective than a government misinformation sweatshop.

I suspect the juicy threat model for AI is targeted individuals. Either those with direct power or, more chillingly, a selected group of "nobodies" who aren't on their guard, setup to do some damage when the right sequence of messages are sent - the effect of their directed action being more than the sum of the parts. AI allows this to happen at far greater scale, and also allows better target identification.

What a time to be alive!
This is one of the best "make" projects I've seen. The build itself is wonderful, it makes excellent use of technology, and it's still unabashedly analog.

Boeing doesn't have a real business plan until they have a plan to replace the 737. Boeing and Airbus have been going crazy over the past 30 years developing widebody airliners, some of which were solidly rejected by the market, but domestic flyers (most of them) are stuck with a 1967 design. It's a disaster when it comes to managing the social and environmental impacts of air travel.

A ride in this plane

There's a crisis brewing at America's small airports in that they've really stopped building the sub-50 seat regional jets that serve smaller airports. (In the small city near me, almost every organization lists the local airport as a weakness in a SWOT analysis) Manufacturers know that airliners around 70 seats would be dramatically lower cost to operate than the status quo, enough that prices would drop and service quality would increase and filling the extra seats would be easy. Trouble is the unions won't let the airlines upgrade
