Wow that CO story was wild! Answering in order:

- Do you recommend one? I have only really found something like a dictaphone which would work but doesn't seem ideal

- Good idea, I will investigate this.

- I haven't met them. All contact has been via the building management so far

- I haven't and neither has my wife

- Not at all. I get up to go to the loo in the night but I do it quietly and they have complained about noise during the day too

- They get up occasionally but mainly to stretch. They never get up and walk around / are active, they just go back to sleep (I am a light sleeper and would notice otherwise)

- Maybe I need to get one after reading that horror story
The good news here is that they are many businesses out of there which a) need an enterprise solution (data protection, dedicated cloud, multi-tenancy), b) have complex data processing patterns (think: underwriting a property policy with cyclone/flood coverage), and c) don't have an unlimited budget.

I would leave corporations to work with corporations if they are really happy working together, but the world is much greater than that (them!).
> a few years ago a study found that e.g. some modern carot varieties have only one third of the (Pro-)Vitamin A content of older varieties. I didn't see a big cross-sectional study to evaluate the overall impact, yet.

The vitamins and minerals are dropping across the board, with the most industrial (greenhouse) vegetables having the least of them. Unfortunately hardly any studies are keeping track of that, let alone trying to evaluate the overall impact.

But luckily, some associations and small seed sellers are trying to buck the trend. Of course, even being allowed to sell (or exchange!) their seeds is a continuous administrative struggle, with everything done to try to shut them down.

What went down at OpenAI and the future of regulation with Helen Toner
In Spain they managed to make roundabouts with traffic lights. It's not uncommon but having traffic lights on small roundabouts can make roundabouts very hard to navigate.
Definition question. I can see your reasoning and I can see the author's, where they define MITM as requiring an active component being in the middle to actually tamper with it and not just some far-off device receiving backscatter with a high-gain antenna, or a read-only mirror port on a switch or whatever is technically not "in the middle" but in a cul-de-sac. I'm not sure I've got a strong opinion, claiming one or the other is the only correct definition might just be nitpicking

They may have chosen this wording ("it's not MITM") to get the team into action rather than dismissing the risk

Edit: another legitimate-sounding question downvoted in this thread without further comment (since I'm the only comment still after it got downvoted). Can people maybe just explain what's wrong with a post when it's not a personal attack, not off topic, not answered in the article, or any other obvious downvote reason? Everyone would appreciate the author learning from the problem if there is one
> I hope that this collection finds its way to the public museums in the future where it can be maintained in perpetuity.

Public museums are not bad per se, but they have a lot of disadvantages.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mO6F9CfgMg4

My summary of the argument:

* Modern museums tend to cater to the general public, which means interesting and unique pieces that are of primary importance to experts in the field are often not on display.

* Private collectors are often better at making their collections available in meaningful ways.

* The bulk of a museum's collection tends not to be displayed at any one time.

Of course, it's a risk if he were to transfer his collection to another private individual - a museum is the safer option. But I don't think the decision clear cut either.

They are supposed to disclose the vulnerability after fixing it, so their users know they need to take action. That's what the original commenter rightly complained about.
They discovered the Taylor Series
She's single-handedly responsible for denying public markets investors the ability to reap the benefits (by investing in) from all of the hot tech startups that are too-small to go public but would have been attractive acquisition candidates in the past.

Now Meta/GOOG/MSFT/AAPL/AMZN know they cannot acquire anything large, so these companies either sell to PE or continue to raise from huge late-stage funds.

I don't like a lot of what "big tech" does but this isn't a good situation either.
This is already how bitcoin mining works. Compute is used to calculate partial hash collisions via brute force. The number of bits required in the collision adjusts dynamically based on the duration of the last 2016 blocks. If you're the first to find a valid collision for the next block, you get 3.125 BTC.

The host side issues were pretty much all related to BSD Sockets being shittiest, but cheapest, network stack on the block.

For many years it embedded the idea that every application had to handle exact details of each protocol it wanted to support through its exposure of gory details in sockaddr struct and requiring that as input to connect() and listen() calls.

All the SLAAC, privacy address, etc? That's just an emanation of people cargo-culting some practices that were workable with IPv4 but only by making the network suck.

And ifconfig got deprecated because it didn't fit linux networking API anymore, and nobody wanted to maintain it instead of writing something that fit well - which was iproute2.

Russel Hurlburt differentiates between

- Inner Speech:
Inner speech is the experience of speaking words in the person's own voice, with the same vocal characteristics (timbre; rate; inflection for commas, question marks, etc.; pauses; accents; stutters; etc.) as the person's own external speech, but with no external (real) noise. In its pure form, the experience of inner speech is identical to that of external speech except that the mouth does not move and no external production of sound is produced.

- Partially Worded Speech: Partially worded speech is the experience of speaking in one's own inner voice, except that some substantial number of the words that are being spoken are absent from awareness. Thus the person has the sense of speaking, and is directly aware of the vocal characteristics of that speaking: rate, inflection, timbre, rhythm, and so on. Furthermore, many of the words that are being spoken are present directly to awareness, precisely as in inner speech. However, some of the words are absent from the stream of speech. Space is "reserved" for these words, as if the words will be added at some later time.

- Unworded Speech: Unworded speech is the experience of speaking in one's own inner voice, except that there is no experience of the words themselves. Thus the person has the sense of speaking, and is directly aware of the vocal characteristics of that speaking: rate, inflection, timbre, rhythm, and so on

- Worded Thinking:: Worded thinking is the experience of thinking in particular distinct words, but those words are not being (innerly or externally) spoken, heard, seen, or voiced in any other way.

- Unsymbolized Thinking: Unsymbolized thinking is the experience of thinking some particular, definite thought without the awareness of that thought's being represented in words, images, or any other symbols.

I feel like the site is somewhat deceptive then... Using phrases like "Stop reading docs. Start shipping.", "As easy as using the localStorage." "Just 3 simple steps." implies something else.

What you are saying is that for actual usage I would need to

---

1. Read the docs for what access you provide by default (anonymous access, etc)

2. Build a backend api endpoint to do all AuthN/AuthZ checks, call your library to generate a token and then return that

3. (On the frontend) Make an API request to my backend, get the token. Call your library with the token to upload the file

4. (maybe think about revoking that token to disallow overwriting the file with the same token)

5. In other clients use your library to retrieve the file? Do I need to build a backend endpoint for tokens here too? If not do you have a way to handle non-public files?

---

My guess would be that whenever this service is used for real we actually need to deal with all of the details it supposedly abstracted away.

The hard part of blob storage has never been storage, it's all the parts that we imply when we say "blob storage". AuthN, AuthZ, permissions, versioning, backups, querying, partial updates, etc. etc. And for most "simple" use-cases you need one or more of those.

I'm not saying you could have made any of these parts any easier, but I think you pitch them as easier than they could be.

'The Social Dilemma' Director Says the Internet Is Undermining Democracy
Saying that Richard Nixon either did or did not eat eggs for breakfast at a certain date is a bit naive. There are many possible physical occurrences where the material reality will fail to neatly fall into whatever definitions you have of Richard Nixon, eat, breakfast and eggs. Reality itself is pretty cut and dry, till you start to take many worlds seriously, but the mapping of human concepts to physical phenomenon is very very slippery. Would you take it as a given that for some universal wave function, there is a mathematical predicate, formed from your Unicode, that corresponds to “a human is in the room”? It is plausible but unproven and seems like quite a big assumption to incorporate into your world view.
> So close and yet … their misconfigured clients will still be sending keys over unencrypted streams. Doh

And how does disabling the HTTP interface altogether prevent that? In that case, any sensitive credentials are still already sent by the client before the server can do anything.
Nice. This is a bit disappointing though: “Multiple dispatch is heavily used in S4; we don’t expect it to be heavily used in S7, but it is occasionally useful.”
Ask HN: Short term memorization strategies/techniques?
For language vocabulary or technical terms/concepts which you will need your whole life, space repetition software, concept maps, Feynman Technique and other methods that "comprehend over memorize", are known to be the best for memorizing.

But what about Short Term memorization of about an index card of (random) numbers/letters/patterns (in about 5-10 minutes)?

It is handy to be able to memorize a somewhat large amount of information for a very short amount of time. Eg. the order of a deck of cards, digits of pi, or terms of a short exam or test that is completely pointless and just not worth memorizing. (Most of such situations come up in friend/family tabletop games or challenges.)

Some techniques I heard of:

- Ancient Roman leaders used body parts "as a medium" to memorize long speeches.

- A friend of mine uses a visual method where he memorizes numbers using something like a pattern of numpad strokes similar to the human benchmarks "sequence test"(https://humanbenchmark.com/tests/sequence)

- Stories or Words are used to "uncompress" text into something that is easier to memorize. Blindfolded Speedcubers use this technique to memorize their sequences/solutions (https://www.speedcubing.com/chris/memo-images.html).

Does any resource/blog/article have more defined thoughts on different strategies or a way to think about it (from someone experienced)?

I couldn't find anything on Hackernews or on the internet. (Also, "how do I google this correctly?")

That’s fine, but rather unrelated to the article, which is about the situation that you have an API served via HTTPS, and the question of whether you should also have a redirect from HTTP to HTTPS in that case, or rather return an HTTP error.
They need to freeze the ground to avoid water flowing into and out of the area.

> Not everyone gets to live the most popular places.

Definitionally, everyone who actually lives in a place must be able to afford that place. If people suddenly can't, they leave, it's now less popular.

Right now, it's rent controls which allow most Berliners to live in Berlin. Without that, many would be forced to leave, making the city less popular, and thus less expensive.

(Perverse incentives, yay!)

>Private collectors are often better at making their collections available in meaningful ways.

Citation very much needed. The vast majority of items in private collections, including the entirety of the vast majority of private collections, are unknown, uncatalogued, and utterly unavailable.
That's entirely the wrong reason to approach it.

The choreography pattern has always felt like a top-down solution to what is fundamentally a bottom-up problem.

Notably the article calls out tracing, which is the bottom-up solution to this. Choreography functions by dictating a flowchart that events move through, so visible comes from that dictation. Tracing functions by watching what events move from which producers to which consumers, and surfacing that organic data.

I'm not sure I see the fundamental advantage of dictating these flows rather than observing and reporting on them with some kind of internally-standardized conventions on message metadata with some standardized tooling to consume that. They seem to end up in a fairly similar situation: producers can see their consumers and vice versa, both sides need to coordinate on changes.

I really don't think it's that much boilerplate, at least compared to the pain of dealing with a choreographer that's failing to scale or just generally bad (and which you now can't replace, because everything is hand-tailored to it).
The worst thing about windows booting up is being lied to that the system is ready to use, when in fact everything is still sluggish for another 2 minutes and default apps are starting up.

That works for browsers but I doubt any non-browser HTTP clients (e.g. curl and wget) or HTTP library (e.g. Python requests lib) will check the HSTS preload list.

In fact if they do follow HSTS headers, a simple `Strict-Transport-Security: ...; preload` would have fixed the issues mentioned in the article.
Lots of roundabouts have traffic lights here in the U.K.

Yeah, this looks like it could be built pretty space efficiently, especially if you already had an intersection on each side of the bridge. I'm sure there's ways to make it use more space, but it seems like it wouldn't need to be a lot more space anyway.

In 2003 I was using a Pentium III Dell laptop with Linux (2.4) on it. Everything worked, including wifi.
I started using Linux (nixos first, now back to Arch) more frequently one year ago and I have a nice boring KDE desktop. Everything works pretty well and the UX is way ahead of OS X.

In the past I was a full time user of KDE3/4 but I've used plenty of OpenBox, i3, sway et similia. In the last 8 years I ended up mostly on Mac, albeit I've installed Arch Linux on a 2015 Macbook Pro (and it was glorious).

Funnily enough, I realised I'm at that age where I'm working only on my desk, so I don't really need to waste lithium batteries for a device that's always plugged in. And I'm tired of the Macbook wasting CPU cycles and getting as hot as a volcano on proprietary crappy software I can't change.

Apple really needs to start hiring some software engineers; the hardware is pretty good but the OS is terribly bloated.

It's a shame we still don't have non-Apple decent laptops, I hope things will change thanks to the shift to Arm and cellphone makers (who did a pretty good job with the quality of some Android devices).

I do redirect APIs to HTTPS, but I'd prefer not to. There's a simple reason - My APIs are hosted on the same IP as the public website, behind the same load balancer, so something has to be on the HTTP port.
