What's the GitHub Actions tooling like for emphemeral self-hosted runners?

Afaict, a huge portion of this attack came from persistence on the self-hosted runner.

Absent that, they would have needed a container jailbreak as well, which substantially ups the difficulty.

And if a repo is running <100 builds a day, spin up + kill container seems a small per-build price to pay for the additional security isolation.
IMO, modern psychology “walks the line between pseudo-science and proper deductive or inductive studies”. Psychoanalysis at best sometimes stumbles in the right direction.
I do not understand peoples problem with writing HTML. You could use an editor that auto-completes elements if you find that they're too long to type. Also remember that there are a few common elements, like <p> and <li>, that you usually don't need to close.

I use Hugo and I actually prefer writing HTML over MD.

Yes, we should absolutely burn gasoline before burning plastic. Plastic should be buried, not burned. Of course, ideally we should be riding electrified public transport consuming renewable energy instead of ICE cars - but not everything that's less than ideal is as bad. And burning plastic is probably one of the worse ways of powering a car. Maybe coal-powdered would be worse, but I wouldn't bet on it.

The article itself how much more CO2 this art project produces compared to a gasoline car.
There was ina interesting article about why there are so many cheap and abandoned homes in japan and thats laergely due to the superstition absout buying a home that someone has died in... I cant recall where i read it but is was talking about the sheer number available - but there were a bunch of roadblocks to purchasing them...

Having a few small places in Rural, but small nice villages as AirBnBs would be really cool -- what would be even cooler, would be to own a "circuit" of little places such that you dont airbnb a single place - you have atour of japan trip "2 nights here, 1 night here, 4 nights here" for a fill week in different parts of japan. ideally get them as FAR apart as you can while being as CLOSE in time by Bullet train.

EDIT: I found an article:

https://tokyoportfolio.com/jiko-bukken-real-estate/

"So what is a Jiko Bukken? According to the guidelines, a Jiko Bukken is a property where “death other than natural or accidental death” or a “death requiring special cleaning” occurred.

This includes properties where suicides or murders have occurred, as well as properties where special cleaning was required, even in natural or accidental deaths."
I’m not interested in doing a rank ordering of racial groups.

You're setting up a false dichotomy: people are the same and diversity is neutral or some people are better and diversity is bad.

You seem to be assuming that its perfectly knowable which groups are “best”, and that we should therefore assemble teams strictly out of those people. My contention is that this is hubris and instead we should bring together lots of different types of people, then let them figure it out.
Ask HN: Adds for Flutter on YouTube?
Howdy folks. I usually get a few adds for Flutter on YouTube every now and then, and I'm just wondering if anyone knows any inside baseball about what Google values about Flutter? Do they like it more than Compose Multiplatform? I'm always hesitant to adopt a Google framework, but I really want to believe that Flutter might stick around, but it still seems like a gamble.

Thanks for your thoughts!

Krasnoyarsk ship lift?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krasnoyarsk_ship_lift
To be fair, a lot of petrol engines, and certainly diesel engines will have trouble starting at those temps unless they are in top condition. "Plug in heaters" are the solution there as well, to keep the engine block warm. Diesels will also need fuel treatement or fuel heaters to keep the fuel from turning to gel.
My best guess: master candidate => release candidate (in the context of software versioning).

We were both tripping. Fairly recent acquaintances, I had no idea about his views, until it came up during conversation. We ended up talking about it for several hours. I stayed non-judgemental and just kept probing with questions about why he feels this way. Eventually he realised he was really just angry about the failures in his own life and the local community he was from. He'd picked up a bad media diet(neocon youtube...) and found some kind of relief I suppose in directing his anger at others. There was a lot of crying. He even thanked me the next day.

I think that's about as detailed as I can get without revealing private information.

It was a remarkable experience and fundamentally changed the way I think about the human mind, extreme political views, political dialogue, and most of all how therapy should work.

Those users don't care much about the ideas, this is where the mistake is, what they want is attention. And they get this attention by ranking low stars (which prompts a dev reply) and commenting on some random very specific detail (which should again should prompt a reply).

>Germany, Switzerland, Scandinavian countries.

That's more to do with the type and quality of the company you work for rather than the labor laws of the country itslef. Plenty of body shops and overwork horror stories with terible managers coming from those countries as well if you happen to work for the "wrong" companies.

It's just that economically performant economies like Switzerland, US, UK, Germany and Nordics tend to have more "good" companies than "wrong" companies, compared to southern/central/eastern Europe where it's moxtly bodyshops, consultancies and outsourcing.
The first one is much better than any of the others. Global warming is a far more pressing problem than microplastic pollution. Plastic is in fact one of the few materials we have that can sequester carbon in a relatively inert way, so burying it in a landfill is infinitely better than burning it.
Or it could have water in it. There's always some water in retail fuel. The pumps have filters to capture it, but if they freeze the fuel can't flow.
Optimisation is just function minimisation/maximisation. What did you expect and how was it different?
GitHub themselves don't seem to provide any mechanism to make runners ephemeral. It looks like all they allow you to do is flag a runner as ephemeral, meaning it will be de-registered once a job is completed - you need to write your own tooling to wipe it yourself (either via starting a whole new runner in a new environment and registering that or wiping the existing runner and re-registering it).

https://docs.github.com/en/actions/hosting-your-own-runners/...
Yeah, that's my worry. I like the idea of pyrolizing plastic to dispose of it (and get energy), but -- a petrochemical company was just proposing to do this, in what presumably was a much better-controlled process, and there were (justified) protests, because the process was going to send horrible quantities of serious carcinogens up the stack. Which makes me wonder what horrible byproducts this might inadvertently be making.

Oh yeah, water works well, because you can raise it very efficiently. It's a very well worked through technology.

Moving billions of tons of concrete vertically is a lot harder.

(Most dams also supply their own water. Hydro storage is trickier, and needs you to build pumping systems, and sometimes to hollow out mountains)
Yes. Authoritarianism is very much alive and it's very often found in the most "virtuous" of people. People who believe they are right and just are capable of anything.

The truth is people want acceptable targets they can lash out against with no consequences and feel justified in doing so.
In some SQL providers, your can define rules that dynamically mask fields, suppress rows, etc. based upon connection-specific details (e.g. user or tenant ID).

So, you could have all connections from the LLM-enabled systems enforce masking of PII, whereas any back-office connections get to see unmasked data. Doing things at this level makes it very difficult to break out of the intended policy framework.
This might just as well be a genuinely stupid review, but in my experience, these kinds of hate-inciting bruaha stories are often planted by the opposite side, in this case, to laugh about "SJWs".

Seems very unbelievable to me and sounds like the type of rage bait often appearing in social media ads.
Not entirely. I proved the "good luck when you can't find a charger and have to tow your car" haters wrong. We've moved from the realm of impossible into possible, but we're just not in the convenient territory yet. (akin to the lifecycle of depending on mobile Internet)
> and then taking over when necessary

Yes, and that has to be safely possible. From my reading, the article has no problems with remote operators giving command. The truck just also needs the ability to both safely execute them and come to some safe state by itself if necessary commands don't arrive [in time].

The interesting question is how complicated those safe states are to realize. Just hitting the breaks on a freeway seems hardly acceptable. Generally, this being harder than for cars in cities is a core conclusion of the article.
This does depend on definitions. In classical economics the factors of production were labor, land and capital stock. Notably "land" means any non-man-made resource, probably including legal monopolies like intellectual property, which contemporary neo-Georgists seem to totally ignore. Capital stock means man-made stuff that is used to produce something, e.g. buildings and machines.

Marx generalized capital to roughly mean anything that makes money for the owner without them doing work.

Neoclassical (the current mainstream) definition is quite close to Marx's.

Land is capital.
This looks great! I'm no designer, so I always appreciate seeing other folks' ideas on how to design things. To shout out some other inspiration, there have been a few Calibre redesign projects.

Are there metrics on how many `kg` of plastic waste required input wise -> how many `l` of "diesel like liquid" output? how many "kilometers per liter" is the car getting on the diesel / how many "kilometers per kg of plastic"? Curious on yield/waste/efficiency/etc.
Unique Selling Proposition. If the thing the library implements does not substantially differentiate your company from others, it's a candidate to be maintained as open source project. For example, just become an expert ffmpeg user if you're a live streaming service. Your USP is your content, transcoding just needs to work. In contrast, if you're Dolby, that would probably not be the right strategy.
It's probably a good "ideas issue" but the real commentary will end up happening in a python/cpython issue/PR. They will get cross-linked eventually.
I built a demo of something similar, using LlamaIndex to query data as it streamed into ClickHouse.

I think this has a lot of real world potential, particularly when you move between the query and a GenAI task:

https://youtu.be/F3Eup8yQiQQ?si=pa_JrUbBNyvPXlV0

https://youtu.be/7G-VwZ_fC5M?si=TxDQgi-w5f41xRJL

I generally found this worked quite well. It was good at identifying which fields to query and how to build where clauses and aggregations. It could pull off simple joins but started to break down much past there.

I agree with the peer comment that being able to process and respond to error logs would make it more robust.
Sure, the "facts on the ground" are different. The average temperature in Israel is significantly higher than the average temperature in Russia. Hence, it totally makes sense to subject Russia, but not Israel to economic sanctions. I'm not reducing your argument to straw men - I'm claiming that it requires mental gymnastics that would make an Olympian gymnast impressed to explain why Russia should be treated as a pariah state but not Israel.
>where you can't afford any false positives

I disagree with that part of the statement.

You can gasify many materials besides plastic (garbage/waste stream). Filter out metals, brick, rock, glass first. Perhaps site near existing landfills in order to balance the ingest stream between ongoing waste and the waste mine. I have heard the phrase that the landfills of today are the mines of tomorrow, but I think they're more like Superfund sites, all to require remediation in the future at some point (hence the importance of projects that can reasonably degrade these materials into inert byproducts).

How do you get 2.7kg of carbon by burning 1kg of plastic? Am I thinking too simplistically about that?
Also he's currently using industrial plastic chips, high quality homogeneous material, if you were using plastic garbage you then run into contaminants, full bottles of whatever, labels, glues different types of plastic - not all plastics will liqify etc etc etc.
Well done for the proof of concept though.
Yep.

I don't really see the point in anything long range for autonomous vehicles in the near-term. We should optimize the use-case of them driving people and goods to and from train stations. For this use-case it should be entirely fine if the max speed they can achieve is 20mph. The stopping times and force that can be achieved at those speeds should bring down the danger by quite a bit.

I think if we compare burying plastic to properly controller industrial incineration in combined production that is both electricity and heat is likely better option. As that means we do not need to extract and process the fuel we would use for same purpose.

Now refining plastic to fuel used in other ways or small scale burning is likely just idiotic.

So.. 10 trains per ship then. With 38 ships per day, that's 380 trains.

Assuming 190 trains per direction, on a 24h/day schedule, that's 8 trains per hour, per direction. Or a 7.5 min block between trains 24 hours a day. That doesn't seem very realistic..

Fact that it sold for more doesn't mean it was in good shape. There are many potential reasons why people would pay more, even if Spirit was in bad shape.
If you didn't read the whole book you didn't experience the work in full.

You're allowed to read it however you like. No one is saying you're not. But, given those circumstances, is your interpretation of the art valid? At that point why even read the last chapter? Just make up your opinion based on the cover, you'll get through books much faster since that is your only goal.

But understanding an art piece frequently (usually?) doesn't end with that individual piece of art anyways. If Duchamp presented Fountain in 2024 would it have the same appeal? Could Fountain have been produced in 1200? Does the fact that Fountain started as a mass produced item fundamentally effect it's statement?

Your final sentence is just a completely unfounded ad hominem? No reason to attack me bud. I haven't told you how I view art (except for "in full") and I certainly didn't say anything like "art without meaning to others being less financially valuable is an attack on all creative work"
Long time ago I've used paxCompiler scripting engine. It was made for Delphi / FreePascal and supported Delphi input language. Rather than being byte code interpreter / JIT it actually generated native code in RAM hence the overhead of calling it was the same as calling regular function. It had lots of other super nice features but that is all in the past anyways.

I am curious why such approach is not used for other scripting projects.
When you burn it the oxygen gets bound to it so the CO2 weight is higher.

Whats most interesting to me, is he's a former DAC person not a former Boeing one, and he saw first hand how outsourcing harmed DAC/MDC - particularly this section which caught my attention:

"The correctness of the author's position' on these matters is easily confirmed by two facts. It was the suppliers who made all the profits on the extensively out-sourced DC-10s, not the so-called systems-integrating prime manufacturer. (The same thing has happened on aircraft assembled by Boeing, in Seattle, too.) Also, when plans were being formulated for the proposed MD-12 very large transport aircraft, almost all potential suppliers indicated a preference for being subcontractors rather than risk-sharing "partners". Could they have known more about maximizing profits, minimizing risk, etc., than the prime manufacturer who sought their help even though it could borrow money at lower rates of interest than potential suppliers could? The DC-8 was manufactured and assembled almost entirely within the Long Beach plant, with only the nose coming from Santa Monica. That policy was changed after the acquisition of the former Douglas Aircraft Company by the former McDonnell Aircraft Company, but the change did not improve the company's profitability. It is time for Boeing to reverse this policy."

This closing also caught my eye -

"The fate of the former Douglas Aircraft Company, which was reduced to a systems integrator in the early 1970s by excessive outsourcing of DC-10 production, is a clear indicator of what will happen to other companies which fail to sustain the conditions under which it is possible to launch new products. It is hoped that this sacrifice can save the new and expanded Boeing from a similar fate."

Boeing in the end took the track that led to DAC functionally going out of business, putting thousands out of work in the end. It's not too late to undo it however - buying Spirit back would be one way to go about doing it - but I dont know if the Boeing management is aware enough being that the headquarters is in Arlington, VA, far away from any engineering or manufacturing centers that this is what must be done.

Whats even more astounding to me, this made the Seattle Times in 2003(!), https://archive.seattletimes.com/archive/?date=20030309&slug...

I'm no engineer, but I would not imagine that the Panamax ships are built to handle that kinda of stress while still loaded with cargo.
