As an opposite experience I bought my daughter a dump truck at Costco and got a good laugh out of it - it has a bunch of phrases, many are common. One very uncommon one is "Wow, that was a big dump!".

I'm in the same position as you re: popular political books, although I would not describe myself at all as a centrist.

A while back, I read "Rise and Kill First", which is a history of Israel's assassination programs dating back to the Irgun, and I attempted to read "Killing Hope", which is similar, but about the CIA. "Rise and Kill First" is clearly written by someone who loves Israel, but is deeply disturbed by the long history of these assassination programs. "Killing Hope" is written by someone who is, if not actually a tankie, certainly tankie-adjacent. Even as leftist as I am, I found it intolerable and had to put it down. I fully expect that I'll have the same response to Zinn.
You should have more discretion with those ideas or disclose irony clearly, which I hope is the case here.
The V File Viewer is excellent, and I've used it daily for many years. It's based on a DOS program called LIST.COM in the 80s/90s.

I don't know what "very young" is, but I'd assume "Under 8" or so.

At which point, they don't need digital devices. Take the time and effort you'd spend on that and buy them legos or something age-suitable, and keep them in the physical world as long as you possibly can.
Depending on how they are counted there are between 10000 and 70,000 different human diseases, and treatments only exist for around 500 of them. Further, the overwhelming majority of these treatments are not cures, i.e. treatments that end medical conditions in an individual.
This is a big problem because corporations will just leave a state if they don't like its labor laws and operate out of whatever state has the laxest labor laws.

States used to have their own laws limiting interest on loans, usually between 10 and 20 percent. Then in 1978 the Supreme Court ruled[0] that banks can ignore these state laws if they are based out of a different state. This eventually led to pretty much all of the banks moving their headquarters to South Dakota or Delaware which repealed their laws limiting interest rates to attract banks to those states. Today, pretty much every credit card charges an interest rate well above the old legal limits.

> we live in a world with closed-servers and appliances

Yeah but these servers and appliances aren't running Debian unstable are they? I'd understand if it affected LTS versions of distros, but these were people living on the bleeding edge anyway. Folks managing such servers are going to be fine running `apt-get update`.

We got lucky with this one, tbh.
My kid is only 11 months old, but I worry about this a lot. My parents gave me all the talks that you're supposed to and attempted to supervise my online activities (though they were woefully out of their depth and I was very sneaky). Despite their best efforts, I still self-groomed via social media, then managed to find predators who were eager to take it to the next level.
OpenAI has a big problem, the only moat on an LLM is the quality and inference speed. Which is quickly getting commoditized.
My pet theory is that this was just one project they have been running for years. They are likely doing many more at same time. Slowly inserting parts in various projects and getting their contributors inside the projects.
> I used to be a Rails developer, but I'd never start a new Rails project today. Frontend frameworks and serverless backends have made Rails obsolete.

Feels like a bold conclusion to make based on a trend, when there are so many other explanations. If Rails is no longer in the hype cycle, but still is a superior solution, does that make it obsolete? If Rails shops generally have smaller teams, does that make them obsolete? Why did the author choose that one explanation?
What does this have to do with port knocking?
So... for what it's worth I think I have a fairly good spatial reasoning ability (probably from playing lots of games that involve building things, math, and building things as a kid), but I don't have any imagery that comes with it, it's more like I'm thinking about the relative position of things in my head (e.g., this is to the left of that, which is behind that, etc.,)

Yeah, there was a vegan girl once who heard i ha Crohns' and just would not stop telling me to go vegan. Apparently it had helped her IBD but she seemed incapable of believing that i had tried all that and that eggs and meat were the best diet for me. High protein, high calorie. I'll eat vegetables with make but always well done. If i ate vegan I'd probably be dead in 2 weeks.
This claims not to be an April Fool's prank, but it has to be a little bit tongue in cheek. To earnestly make predictions based on assumptions about the world more than 500 years in the future implies at least a wink when coming from a serious scholar.

It reminds me of a claim I heard as a kid that I still think about today. This was a few years after Elvis died. It went something like "before his death in 1977, there were less than 100 Elvis impersonators in the world. By 1980, there were more than 10,000. If this trend continues, the entire biomass of the Earth will be composed of Elvis impersonators by the year 2000". This was obviously a joke, and is not even pointing out a fallacy relevant to the subject of the article, but I thought it was cute.
Exactly this. Thank you. I have a bee friendly yard in suburban neighborhood with HOA. I keep the front streetside nice and neat for the HOA, but the side yard and back yard is full of clover, a plot of wildflowers, blueberries, blackberries, apples, and a lot of flowers for birds and butterflies. The total amount of effort and cost for all this? Maybe a few hundred dollars over a few years and very minimal work. Turns out that the stuff bees like are basically weeds and will establish and come back with basically no effort at all. The hardest part is stopping the stupid bermuda grass from overtaking it.

I cannot wait for my wildflower plot to shoot up. This year I turned over about 10m x 10m of bermuda grass and sewed a southeastern wildflower mix. I left the center of it grass and a path into it. I plan to go lay down and meditate in the wildflower patch while the bees zoom over head.

> Unless you drive a car or own a gun in the US, then if you do get a bad drug test result you can easily get charged with a crime.

The likelihood of getting charged with a drug-related crime for testing positive for drugs on an employer-mandated drug test, which is the context being discussed, is absolutely minuscule.

You may get fired, but your employer isn't going to refer you to local prosecution, and the prosecution wouldn't take it if they did.
Hi! I helped review this story, and also am one of the organizers of April Cools. Two things:

1. u/obi1kenobi told me it was a real thing that happened to him

2. The point of April Cools is that the things aren't jokes. They're real essays written with care, just outside of the author's usual writing topics. Some of the other ones we got this year are about hydroponics, current events in Sumo wrestling, parenting, and decaf coffee.
This is so obvious that needing to say it shows how prejudice can blind people.
Scientific-ideological blindness, the kind that benefits General Mills et al., is a significant limiter. AI will not change that, if anything, only reinforce it.
Wicked cool! I like this format of practice. Just found a small bug though. The click-to-translate for a given word seems to miss the target of click somewhere. It's translating عُمَر and سَارة as listen (and in the latter case the click gets `وسَارة` instead of just سَارة.)
Is there anything actually illegal here? Like is it a plausible “business” model for talented and morally compromised developers to do this and then sell the private key to state actors without actually breaking in themselves or allowing anyone else to break in.

Meh, everyone has their pet causes that they believe are the more or most important thing while everything else is a "distraction".

The context of the paper however is teaching of psychology students who, by definition, are required to understand human cognition. Therefore, much of your syllabus wouldn't be appropriate for them, and the rest is already taught.

I've been thinking recently, well for a longer time.

The next project will be like this:
I will name the endpoints PagenameFunctionality.
E.g. /IndexGetMyProfile
There will be global scope functions or endpoints but many scoped endpoints.

And there I will do the proper queries just for this use case, and so on for each new use case.

In the context of SPA/PWA/TWA I think this is a good approach.

Graphql is too complex on the client and RESTful too vague.

Ooh, let me give you one data point on that.

I've had great success hiring juniors. One was a WebDev "bootcamp" graduate lady; I was hesitant but bit the bullet, and it paid of well. It was good for the team and, as she was coming from a highly-exploitative industry (Hospitality Industry) she was super grateful with all the perks and benefits in the Software Dev industry (shit, she was just grateful she wasn't sexually harassed... that's the state of things in hotel jobs apparently).

After that I hired another bootcamp graduate, Jr. guy with some mental handicap (sorry for my bad choice of words, English is not my first language). The dude had problems with oral communication; but given that we were a remote team, we had no problems communicating in writing through mail and slack. He was pretty good and passionate. And very grateful that we gave him the chance. I think he is still working in the company where I hired him :-)

Finally, at my current startup I hired another Jr dev, recently graduated from Software Eng. During my interview time I saw he was heavily "opinionated" but also open to accept that he didn't know stuff. I love opinionated+humble people. He has been amazing in my current team.

In my view, the problem with hiring Juniors is that a lot of times, companies are "lazy" in defining job openings. They want people that do everything and know everything. I compare it to the construction industry: As if someone hiring people to build a house wanted 30 architects/civil-engineer, and wouldnt want to hire lowly construction workers. The construction industry has matured enough to have very specific technical positions that can be filled by vast amount of workers.

This is what I've done. I try to break my teams so that I can (at least initially) provide a Jr developer with very specific, small, digestible tasks. It makes it way cheaper for me.

For example, I just recently hired a Jr. Frontend guy (just graduated) to work on Tooljet Dashboards. He was super happy to get the job, I could offer him around 40% more of what he was expecting, and I didn't have to ask a mid/sr level engineer to spend their time doing dashboards.
Proof of stake crypto is not great but arguably worth the environmental impact, if proven useful. I'm not convinced it's useful or positive for the society in general but some people enjoy crypto and will claim the oppositive.

The consensus about proof of work crypto is that it's terrible for the environment. I know someone who crypto mine in winter to heat up his home but it's more for fun, and he would rather invest in new windows than cryptominers.

This was my thinking. Or some other poorly seated electrical connection that somehow got better when it was damp.
It seems to me like, if he were to have tried to do the voyage accompanied by a dedicated support boat, then the Coast Guard probably would have let him do it.

On his first trip, the Coast Guard intercepted him, but eventually let him continue, but then a few days later he had to be rescued.

On his second trip, they were much less lenient and forcibly removed him from the bubble.

So it sounds to me like the Coast Guard didn’t think he had planned well enough to do what he was trying to do safely, and they were probably right.

If he had instead done a series of progressively longer trips accompanied by a support ship ready to rescue him, and then planned to do the trip to Bermuda with a support ship, then he may have been able to convince the Coast Guard to authorize him to do the voyage.
Ouch!

I did the ssd upgrade to a G4 PowerBook* and it wasn't that dangerous. Nothing glued. Jut had some geek fun with 2 friends, all worrying about the tiny tiny screws and short and fragile cables.

If the iBooks are glued together, that's a totally different animal.

tl;dr; pihole, qustodio, device & network policies

For my young, innocent children, my goal was to protect from accidental clicks. Ad-blocking DNS (pihole, NextDNS) is very effective for that.

Then they got a little older and had friends showing them gore and horror things (because they had unlimited access). This was not age-appropriate content and resulted in multiple sleepless nights as they tried to process the images. Not wanting to perpetuate the cycle, I installed Qustodio on their Android devices. I'm satisfied with that.

I recently bought a Synology RT6600ax and love it. It gives the ability to assign different devices to different sets of network rules so I can customize my parenting to my children as they go through different developmental phases. Having this is a good complement to qustodio because you can configure it to shut off internet for all devices in one place. It does take a technical user to use it to it's potential though.
I believe OpenAI is doing this because they are scared of Microsoft.

More specifically…. Bing Chat is free and you can converse with it without using an account for a few prompts at a time.

Just go into Incognito into your browser if you run into any limits on Bing Chat.

Bing Chat uses OpenAI tech but OpenAI doesn’t make money from it. So OpenAI is probably worried people will use Bing more. Interesting kind of relationship they got going on with Microsoft. They need to provide Microsoft with the tech to access Microsoft data centers but this leaves them the risk of Microsoft overtaking them in the AI space with their own tech itself.

Fascinating
Those are probably kill switches to prevent the exploit from working if there is a terminal open or runs in a GUI session. In other words someone trying to detect, reproduce or debug it.
I do not understand why there is a push to change the C++ syntax. There are plenty of new natively compiled languages like D, Go, Rust, Zig, Nim, Odin, Crystal, and so on. If you do not like C++ you always can use some of them instead. The problems that make C++ unsafe are semantic and not syntactic ones.
The context of the conversation, which you seem to have missed, is that now that we have a POC, we need a way to check for vulnerable servers. The link being that a POC makes it easier for script kiddies to use it, meaning we're in a race against them. But we aren't, because only one group in the whole world can use this exploit.

Given the extremely sketchy provenance of the story’s data, the timing of the story’s publishing, the fact it was published by a tabloid and that even the reporters who wrote it questioned its validity, and that two subsequent investigations found no evidence of corruption by Joe Biden, I would say the media was right to treat the Post story as misinformation.

I'll never understand companies making genuine product announcements on April 1st, the most famous example of this has to be Gmail. I mean, really? You just have to do it on this day? Couldn't just do it yesterday or tomorrow, or any of the 364 other days in the year?
I remember hearing about a few common failure modes for early internetworking of adjacent buildings. The first being running a bare twisted pair cable between buildings. Worked fine until the next lightning storm, and then a nearby strike fries the equipment on both ends. You have to use grounded conduit to run strands between buildings my dudes.

But the other one was setting up WiFi between buildings, and tended to be more of a problem in academia because the yearly cycles make it a bit more likely. If you set it up in the fall, and everything works all winter until spring comes, when the water in the deciduous tree leaves attenuates the signal. The nasty part of this one is not the failure mode but the timing. Everyone has been happily using and depending on their sweet sweet bandwidth for six months and poof, it’s just gone one fine April morning.
> Also, the internet is currently being scapegoated by the media for the teen mental health crisis but this is only happening in the US and other countries also have teens with internet access.

[Citation needed]

The teenage mental health crisis is across a wide range of countries, all starting roughly with the smartphone. Here's one discussion on Nordic countries that demonstrates a rise in teen mental health issues at exactly the same time we saw in the US: https://www.afterbabel.com/p/international-mental-illness-pa... - and the data for various other European and Asian nations all looks about the same.

Of course, if you've started with the conclusion that smartphones and social media can't possibly be the problem, you'll be able to deflect anything away from that particular cause.
