I've always loved quick calculation games, learning mathematical principles and concepts, applied mathematics, probability theory, etcetera. However, I developed huge mathematical anxiety throughout all of high-school, because math class followed an appalling, horrifying routine: the teacher would randomly pick any of us to forcibly go up to the blackboard to solve an exercise from the previous lesson's homework, especially when we hadn't done it, and we would get badly scolded in a humilliating manner when we couldn't solve it, getting some laughs or hurtful remarks from our classmates, as well. When we were done, we would get more homework, and so the cycle repeated. The actual teaching always took less than ten minutes, if it took place at all.

Teachers were so utterly disparaging, it became an extremely stressful experience. It undermined our ability to focus in the first place, so not instantly getting whatever was being "taught" induced more fear, which made you lose even more focus. It was a terribly negative feedback loop.

Later on, I started reading math books on my own and realized that not only I wasn't bad at it, but what kind of motherfuckers were those so-called teachers, and how clueless they were in pedagogical terms.
it is not always frowned upon. It is a big NO in prod servers.

But most companies have less critical or testing environments available where people have some more space to play with.

And some teams like support, QA, Dev, etc usually have their own vm servers available to play with.

Where i work support analysts even had their personal servers they could do whatever they wanted, within reason of course. They still have access to VMs at AWS that they can start and destroy at will, but now there is just a few base images to choose from.
Huh? How does this have a partisan angle? This is the usual MO, like, anywhere.
The history and philosophy is about giving context and meaning to the calculations, formulas and proofs.
What we need is sensors that can scan polarization on a per-pixel basis (like 256 orientations per pixel per image. Then it would be much easier to detect and remove consistently polarized components of the image (as specular reflections from glass are).

This would just be a fully electronic/computational version of a mechanical polarizing filter.
I think there's a lack of appropriate adjectives for people like Balaji and also Musk or even Marc Andreesen. It's plainly obvious that none of them are actually dumb. These are clearly people with high IQs and active imaginations. Where they fall down is in being prone to being wildly irrational. They're also just self-absorbed and seemingly lacking in empathy and compassion.

I used yabai for a while, but its general bugginess (losing windows, mishandling native tabs, SIP disable required for some functionality) eventually convinced me to try Aerospace. I have been very happy with how stable it is in comparison, though it's still not quite as nice as actual sway/i3.

What has Google done to make YouTube better in the last five years? I can name several things its made a lot worse:

Chromecast "at-rest" screen now looks like a DVR from hell, showing only clickbait-y revenue-driven Youtube crap and ads.

Ads REPEAT all the time. I've grown to hate several advertisers simply because Youtube puts them in front of me so often.

The ads themselves suck. For a video to hard cut to someone's face filling the screen talking directly to me about how therapy works... do they think I'm using a phone? Is that why I'm getting this lame Insta/TikTok-format video ad? It's jarring, invasive and stupid.

No one as young as me should feel this old! \s
Good ol' Nagios does this, except maybe for pretty graphing. Maybe look into Icinga2 (fork of Nagios) for that.

A creative mind that follows many trails spends time in very odd places. I too have some, uh, highly idiosyncratic notions, but that I prefer not to mention. I suspect that people who don't have been following fewer trails. I value these odd characters as scouts that happen to report the occasional bigfoot. If you take them as oracles, yeah they're horrible. If you take them as a source for "anything that good hackers would find interesting", there are pearls in the dross.
DirectoryTree Authorization: Laravel Native Role, Permission Management Package

Paypal has a really obnoxious failed implementation of passkeys where if you have totp configured, their login flow takes you to TOTP after your passkey auth.

If you want your passkey to “just work” you have to turn off TOTP. But thats a bad idea because passkeys are an alternate method of auth with paypal, not a replacement for passwords. So then you are left with the option of a password only sign in (no TOTP) or a passkey.

Oh, we do our share of dumb shit too. Ever heard of synthol or jelqing?
I don't think that's true at all and would consider the history and deeper structures (philosophy) of something to be integral to that topic. In fact, I think the (very modern) rigid division of subjects into separate categories is part of the problem. Intellectuals from a few centuries ago would find it absurd that we consider the liberal arts and mathematics to be entirely opposite types of things.
On the other hand. They already integrate with this API for their iOS app as it's the only way to do password autocomplete on iOS. Why not extend that use to MacOS?

> If you take out meat, you'll simply reduce the pool of available (good) choices

Only if we forced everyone to give up meat at gunpoint. Most people who choose to go meat-free, and stick with it, end up finding tasty and nutritious food that works for them.

> even when they are available, they are usually too expensive to become a common staple.

People automatically assume that giving up meat means salads and tofu all day, bought in 2oz packages from Whole Foods while wearing Lululemon yoga pants. And you gotta throw in the $10 artisan kombucha while you're at it.

Beans, lentils, and green peas are far cheaper and healthier than any meat or Impossible burger. You can get them at your local Indian or Mexican grocer for less than $1/lb. Or tofu and seitan from Costco or 99 Ranch Market. A little soybean paste or mushroom broth adds a blast of umami. That's what I mean by "broadening your culinary horizons".

And no beans can never become more expensive than meat, even if more people start eating them. It's simple thermodynamics. Look at the poorest countries on Earth - I guarantee you they eat more beans and lentils than meat. That's what a "common staple" is. If they can afford it, anyone can.
> You know what goes really well with a juicy hamburger or a steak? Crisp fries, and a cool, refreshing, tall glass of Coke (maybe not the Coke so much with a steak), or a frosty milkshake.

That's a disgusting fast-food derived dietary preference. Healthy meat-centric diet does not look anything like that.

What framework are you using for the UI?

I'll stick with Snipaste because of the "pinning" feature - which is absolutely key for my workflow. Alongside copy, save etc. there is a "pin" that leaves the screenshot right there as topmost and you can resize it etc.

Also consider offering a download outside of the Microsoft Store? (some workplaces block the store, even if users are allowed to installed software)
> ssh keys prevent phishing with IdentitiesOnly

There has been a pretty insane number of times I've asked someone for their SSH public key and I get a response of ---- BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY ----. From people employed in tech jobs. Now imagine someone who barely understands how to use a computer, they're an easy target to get their identity phished.

In my experience solution architects are client facing and work with external partners on business solutions. Whereas architects are within engineering and responsible for the internal tech / system.

What's more robust or higher paying generally probably doesn't matter as much as what you are more suited for.
It's a huge movement happening in the OSS space but HN refuses to acknowledge it.
I should also add that with renewables, (wind & solar,) the ramp-up issue is rather similar. The sun and wind aren't going to shine/blow when electricity demand is high, and will shine/blow when demand is low.

The same storage technology (megapacks, pumped storage,) that's needed to solve the problem with renewables also works with nuclear.

(Otherwise, if your logic ignores that renewables need storage, and/or that the same storage technologies work with nuclear, I think you have some kind of anti-nuclear bias tainting your conclusions.)
If you feel insulted by this observation then you should probably introspect a little and reread the comment you've initially responded to tomorrow, because your initial response really was misguided.

Furthermore: I didn't insult you as such. I simply stated the only options I could determine from your behavior.
Literally, what other option is there? Your point is still "it works for me with my single monitor setup" as a response to "this doesn't work with a multi monitor setup".
> This indicates to me that someone with access to Georgia’s servers did this on an Apache level, instead of within WordPress

Assuming you've breached WordPress, and can run arbitrary php, you can produce that kind of result. I think that path is more likely/common.
A track record of completely avoidable near misses should still be penalized I think. Reckless wreckless driving is still a crime, even if it's hard or rare to have enforcement.

I'm not a fan of the surveillance without consent, but if this were opt-in I would be ok with reckless drivers being charged more for the wake of accidents they may leave in their path.
Adding Activitypub to Humungus
That's my takeaway from The Shallows by Nicholas Carr. Knowing how to derive information or where to find information doesn't mean you know the information and knowing the information is necessary to form higher level associations in the mind.

I may lose karma for saying this, but the only way I've found to make multi-monitor work is to go to Energy Saver > Prevent automatic sleeping, and then I never turn my Mac Studio off.

Honestly, I've tried a bunch of things, including different monitor setups and apps that intend to put everything back in their place, but none of it was reliable, windows would still get shuffled around. My time is just worth more than the power consumption of an idling Mac. My monitors do get sleep, and even that sometimes rearranges the windows, but it works like 99% of the time. Why is this so hard to get right Apple?
I happen to enjoy the content itself, even if it's all just riffing on the joke on the headline. But I'm a big fan of snark in general.

Also, I'm not 100% sure, but perhaps there are some SEO boosts from having long form article content that wouldn't be gained from just having a title and a blurb (though they do also do those very short form articles as well, where it's a few sentences with the headline)

It’s okay to be afraid of the unknown.

The Irish people have a bit of luck on their side. They follow their hearts and speak up.

The ancient Celtic DNA knows. It’s a magical people, and I mean that in the sense of the Magi; enlightened men and women of knowledge who brought the sciences and the arts to humanity.

The Irish were conquered, but the power and wisdom within the DNA cannot be conquered.

It’s all within.

This really sounds like you’re back-solving from a pre-existing ideology of complete openness. A customer’s ability act early, e.g. mitigate, is quite clearly context-dependent. I can think of vendors I interface with as a customer that I’d prefer had vulnerabilities ‘responsibly disclosed’ to them. Nothing in technology is this simple. The absolute nature of your claims make it near impossible to actually take this seriously.
My new favorite conservation group is Ducks Unlimited.

They're a bunch of duck hunters who said "We're killing ducks faster than the ducks are coming back. We don't want to stop killing ducks because killing ducks is fun, so what if we made more ducks to kill!"

They now conserve 18 million acres of wetlands and have 644,000 members.
Oooh good point. W3c accounts for it, and it's not that tough. Just a case of putting in the raw html:

I do this the other way around. All my traffic goes through a privacy-first multi-hop VPN provider, and data from things I don't trust and don't care about (set-top boxes, smart TVs [which I detest!], games consoles, house guests, etc) goes through the clearnet and provides a reasonable degree of cover. Literally everything else gets onion routed to some degree, to frustrate correlation analysis. I know that TOR users are logged specifically; I don't know about VPNs directly. All I want is for people to not spy on me. I'm not a criminal and I do nothing wrong(!) -- apparently an impossibly hard ask!

Something someone on HN might be able to answer is this: is there a reason why you couldn't try to configure Wireguard to have a constant bandwidth mode? Continually transmit UDP packets and again frustrate timing or correlation analysis -- if every client spoke to the server on one of a predetermined number of speeds continually then the burstlike connections coming from that server to a potentially identity leaking service (e.g. gmail.com) could not easily be correlated with the origin of the traffic. I imagine that would make it easier to have some stronger degree of privacy protection in aggregate.
They wrote about it last month, and in January.

Many Lenovos and Dells also started with 8GB in 20223.

Yes, Cook is not a product innovator. But I think market forces had more to do with it:

1. Cloud computing moved heavy workloads to data centers so RAM usage is lower locally

2. RAM $/GB has slowed down considerably starting at around the time Cook took over. [0]

3. Businesses/people focused more on mobile software and hardware performance over the last 15 years. More people are doing business on their phones.

They did happen, of course, but they wasn't common at all if you mark all occurrences on the timeline. And almost all cases were due to catastrophic events such as plaques, and famines exactly as the one you linked, not peasants joining politics. And that's the point as my comment replies to a specific claim, I didn't say peasant rebellions never happened.
Our lab pcs run about that, with password protected BIOS. DOS has some filenames wired to devices (con, aux, prn)... as in linux /dev. Don't recall why but one time I summoned "echo kk > clock$" and not only did the real time clock lose sense of time, but upon reboot the bios was struck with bios checksum failed, bad crc, password protect forgotten and bios open to any mischief.

Come on, it would be pretty simple to do with even pretty conservative metrics: abrupt lane changes without indicating, frequent rapid acceleration and deceleration and swerving, if the car has cameras, then proximity to other vehicles or pedestrians while driving at speed, i.e. tailgating etc., if the car has gps, then failing to stop at intersections with stop signs, getting from A to B in a time that could only have been achieved with excessive speeding...

> None of these blogposts (including this one) have any realistic solution to the problem of making OSS software and being able to live from it, and prevent others from exploiting you in the process.

You’re begging the question of whether one should be able to earn a living from making free software.

Free software is not fundamentally about business or profit: it’s about ethics. It’s about the freedom of software users to use, modify and share their software.

How programmers get paid is an interesting question, but it’s not the most important question. The important one is, ‘is it ethical for a programmer to prevent his software’s users from using, inspecting, modifying and sharing modifications to the software they use?’ And the answer in my opinion is a resounding ‘no!’

> You shouldn't necessarily "sync" your passkeys across all your devices; each device should have its own passkey. Then if you lose a device (or that one device gets compromised), you revoke the one key and everything else is fine.

If he's storing his passkey in his password manager, it wouldn't matter that he lost the device. They can't get to it, it's AES-somebigassnumber-ed up the wazoo. If the passkey is cached outside of the password manager, then passkeys are a horrible idea, where you have to "go home and call the 800 numbers to cancel the credit cards", and worse still, people with few devices might end up in circumstances where they have no valid devices left to bootstrap access.

I am resigned to the fact that I will die with humanity never having solved the problem of passwords adequately, but being that I will live another two decades minimum, I will get to see two more of the stupidest possible non-solutions.

I had high hopes for Veilid when it was unveiled (ha) but I stopped hearing about it soon after it was published online. Veilid Chat didn't really seem to work once I found the source code and except for a few "hello world" networking programs I haven't seen anything use the protocol yet. The official website doesn't seem to be getting any updates anymore.

A shame, because this has a lot to offer, in my opinion.
None of that impacted permitted or regulatory oversight for Diablo Canyon that I saw.

Regulators explicitly mentioned the issues I raised when discussing shutting it down, and even the environmentalists were saying their concerns were due to radiation/meltdown.

Also, the state wanted to only run the plant at half power in favor of renewables, because reasons, making it lose money like crazy.

Here is a contemporary article from when the shutdown was approved originally.

> Notice how it's never men doing stupidly risky stuff to try to look young and beautiful.

Steroid use is increasingly common among "hobby bodybuilders", a predominantly male demographic, which has all sorts of nasty side effects. Now there are apparently also procedures where young men break their bones to gain a few centimeters in height.

While cosmetic procedures aren't as common among men as they are in women, they're getting increasingly popular. So saying its "never" men is a huuuuuuuugeeee stretch.
If you have access to HIV drugs, it's pretty manageable. You will always be immunocompromised however, your mucosal T-cells will never be the same, but in the great picture, life expectancy with medicated HIV is as good as life expectancy without HIV. Having to take daily pills until you die is still a pretty nasty thing however :), there is no cure.

I would definitely group HIV with the "nastier stuff".
