Can you prevent other people from using your devices?

Do they actually need anything to accuse you? Who is to check the false positives and who checks the checking?

Possibly worse than loss of privacy is that this would require computers to be entirely controlled by someone other than their owner. It rules out the pc like open ecosystem for phones.
I have given a chance to Tailwind and it was neither nice or easy. I actually give up, wondering why my younger colleagues appreciate writing CSS using class names.

I write CSS since its debut. Clearly it wasn’t enough suffering: they reimplemented it as a class-name based language - with horrible IDE support. I am perplexed - I must be the boomer around here… :)
Running most tests twice won't necessarily give you any useful additional information. Tests generally don't give binary results. Like a hydrogen breath test will give a value within a range, but a high value isn't necessarily definitive for diagnosis of SIBO. It's just one piece of evidence.

Dundurn Castle in Hamilton, Ontario has a dovecote built in the 1830s; they were still a status symbol in the colonies in the 19th century.

Visiting this estate a few years ago sent me down the rabbit hole, reading about pigeon towers around the world.
The Most Disturbing Places We've Found Microplastics So Far
This sounds like a clear criminal conspiracy, but nothing in this is directly about homelessness. This notion that homelessness is primarily driven by high rents stands up to zero scrutiny. Especially visible homelessness as in, the people you see sleeping on the street. That is driven by other public health epidemics such as drug addiction and untreated mental health issues.

It’s important to get this right, or we won’t be able to solve either of these problems (skyrocketing rents & homelessness).
Napster wasn't a huge improvement at all. More people could use it sure, but it was awful on a technical level compared to anything else. You couldn't resume transfers. It automatically shared your library with everyone else. You could cancel any active transfers.. all this meant that most things I tried to download via Napster were from people who weren't intentionally sharing their mp3s, and would cancel any transfers they saw going. I had so many that I waited 10-15 minutes to download only to end up with an incomplete file that I had to throw away because I couldn't just resume it.

Downloading via IRC was objectively better in every way.
The approach taken to this problem by Cats Effect (a Scala concurrency library) is interesting. It allows cancellation of a fiber from outside, but let's blocks of code be marked as uncancelable. If a fiber is cancelled while executing one of these blocks, it will complete the block before cancelling. This protects against cancellation in between two operations which leaves the program in a broken state.

The drawback of this approach is that the onus is on anybody writing code which might be cancelled to correctly mark the uncancelable regions.
I mean, it's enough to say "literally anywhere, including our blood and most tissues", because it doesn't get more disturbing than that

There are many other protocols besides SMB that can be used to share a file. Webdav, ftp, nfs, two systems accessing a third file share, shared folders in a VM, ... Or a file share provided by RDP like in the example, which does not include the IPC share as far as I know.
I’ve done large sections of this and have a few friends that did the full thing.

I was surprised to see the amount of drug culture on the trail. Not hating in the slightest, just wasn’t expecting that.
I walk into the space
The faces buzz nondescript words
Like insect masks
Alien to me
With lives and meaning
Loves and fears
There's an incandescent buzzing
Under my skin
My teeth ache like usual
Gums bleed and remind me
I am in the process of killing myself
I walk down the aisle
Grab a handle of vodka
It whispers insults in my ears
In the shaking voice of my father
After his stroke
The abuse slurring
From the side of his mouth
It always came from
Now with drool
Go home, pour out a cup
Hands shaking, poison to lips
Relief of a kind

They call me the liver failure kid
Done things I wish I never did
On the run from a crime
I don't remember doing
Images of the dead kid on the news
Hit and run
Any information on the suspect
Is appreciated

I hate myself
I hate myself
I hate myself

> And rent in that city has exploded, up 80% since 2016. What’s odd about this price increase is that vacancy rates have been inching up, and when there’s more supply, prices should come down. But they aren’t.

I'd be curious to see the vacancy rate data.
I worked for a video/audio/graphics production company that was purchased by a corporate entity. The new corporate daddy has a drug-free policy, and wanted to implement that with the newly purchased employees. I joked and said that anyone that passes that test in this type of industry should be fired. Like, you're just not trying to very hard to be creative if cannabis isn't part of the process.

Ultimately, the tests were never administered after tremendous push back. The policy was not revised, but just not bothered with. The funny thing, is this was in a state that I swear will be the absolute last state to allow for any kind of legalized use.
How is this better than ChatGPT?
It actually works out for the small landlord also. Let's assume there's a "fair rent" for the house - $1000 a month to make it easy.

If you rent that out for $900 a month, you will basically never have it empty, because those in it won't want to move (they lose the $100 bonus) and if they do, someone will grab it right away.

If you rent it for $1000 a month, it'll fill up relatively easy (compared to the market it is in) so you'll often have relatively low vacancy (but even one month empty is paid for by ten months rented.

If you rent it for $1100 a month, it'll be vacant much longer, perhaps forever depending on supply.
Show HN: I built an open-source, movie suggestion website
Hi HN,

I built http://filmfrenzy.vip, a tool to get personalized movie recommendations based on your input.

Why I built it:
I often found myself overwhelmed by the plethora of recommendations on platforms like IMDB. I wanted something simpler that gives one good suggestion at a time. Also, I wanted to learn Next.js and TypeScript, therefore I decided to build FilmFrenzy.vip as a fun way to dive into these technologies.

How it works:
You can search for movies by title, actor's name, genre, or any keyword, and get a single movie or series recommendation. There's also an "I'm Feeling Lucky" feature for random suggestions.

Open Source:
The project is open-source and I'm open to feedback and contributions. You can check out the code on GitHub https://github.com/paaggeli/filmfrenzy.vip

I’d love to hear your thoughts, feedback, or any suggestions for improvement.

Thanks for checking it out!

Without price discrimination airlines would raise prices and not fill their planes. Price discrimination allows them to extract as much as they can which maximizes the number of people who can fly
I originally built it for myself to use with one niche database that had no IDE support at all. I then gave it to my team and then others. Years ago I began to sell it and I still have large banks and finance firms that pay to use it with that one database. Adding support for other databases was actually very little effort however I don't want to have to do the much harder work of:
a) Marketing to those users.
b) Competing with excellent paid alternatives.
c) The various hassle of support / payment processing for many smaller firms.
So the large finance firms pay me for the one niche database supported, everyone else gets it free but "unsupported".
If a major bank that pays emails a problem, I may have to log in even from holiday to fix it. I'm not doing that for the free users :)
Surely the line is viewed by China as increasing security and the chance of peace. When there were multiple superpowers the US had areas of ocean that it was most concerned about the security of vs areas that it was less concerned about.

As China emerges as a superpower, of course it will have its own.
This doesn't make sense in a few ways:

1. You won't increase rents for existing leases, these need to be up for renewal so you can make changes to them.

2. You are assuming that you control the whole market. Even if 70% of landlords use RealPage and their pricing recommendations, the remaining 30% should be able to absorb some of the people moving out as a result of this if the new rent is substantially over market.

3. This creates somewhat of a prisoner's dilemma problem. Any non-compliant landlords inside the 70% bucket could only raise their rent by 5% instead of 10%, get full occupancy rates and come out ahead of their competitors.

Bravo!

I'm in the same boat: I don't partake, but neither do I want my boss watching me on my day off. Two related stories:

1. A friend went through the same process as you. The whole Bay Area team refused to take the tests. New corporate boss: "But we test everyone!" Local team: "Not here, you don't!" Faced with a choice between firing the entire new acquisition or getting some sanity, the buyer modified their supposedly inviolable policy to exempt CA employees.

2. I was the CISO at a prior gig when an enterprise customer was evaluating our service. They checked all the usual boxes and then asked, "oh, and you do drug test all your employees, right?" The CTO and I looked at each other and I had the privilege of being the one to say, no, we do not and will not test our employees. Either they're performing up to expectations or they're not. That felt great.

I had a beer yesterday and I know I won't be in trouble for that. Why should I remotely care whether a coworker smoked a joint at the same time? We're both sober and working today.

Edit: CTO and I laughed about it later. What counts as a passing score locally? Is there a minimum value, too, or just a max?

What is legal with 40% of the market might well not be legal with 80-90% of the market. That's the entire point of antitrust laws. If 90% of a market is composed of companies that explicitly coordinate to fix prices, that's an antitrust violation in most developed countries, so I expect it will be in the US too.
If it costs nothing to create something, it has no value and I expect to get it for free.

As mentioned in the article, this isn't limited to ruby. It just shows that the ruby timeout can be dangerous, which a great reminder to those who use it. It would be great if the danger was mentioned in ruby's Timeout class documentation.

The same type of danger can be encountered with the linux `kill` command, depending on which signal you send, losing power, operating system terminate, etc. If you have state in flux, hard killing a process can have unexpected outcomes.

I'd also like to say that just because something is dangerous, doesn't mean it should not be used. Just use it carefully. Think of it as dynamite. Dynamite is very useful in some cases, and always needs to be handled with care.
I wish they would look into wage fixing across companies too - where at least "big tech" shares / buys salary data across all their competitors, so they don't have to increase wages - they fix them by being consistent across that dataset.

Seems to be the same thing, just in a different "market"

I want to his this really hard. Being good at a lot of things, but not being the best at any one thing, is sort of a super power on its own.

I always say that I'm never THE expert at any one thing, but if you give me three days and an open internet connection, I can become AN expert at anything at all.

I have been working for a very promising fully autonomous Vertical farming company from Milan for the past two years as a Machine learning engineer. I am looking for jobs that would allow me to work on interesting problems and technologies. I enjoy challenging work and environments that are encouraging and supportive.

I have 3 years of experience and all of it has been devoted to building Machine Learning services (research and production).

My communication skills have been praised by my peers and my perseverance and problem solving skills allow me to tackle daunting tasks with relative ease.

Last month, I disclosed here that I was working on something that would help you find your future co-founder. Happy to announce that I am releasing Buildbook - The platform for student builders to post small or quick project ideas to build together, either as a resume piece or for scoping out early co-founder dynamics before committing to a bigger project.

We all know that this market hasn't exactly been the best time to find a Co-Founder or raise VC. I have personally experienced the pains of committing to different projects with different people, with grand visions for scalability, legal work, and vesting schedules, all for it to be meaningless after 6 months when the partner drops off. On top of that in the job market, I have personally experienced the soul-crushing routine of submitting several applications, often to roles I definitely qualify for but not landing any interviews.

So I decided to build something I would have used a few years ago when still in College- A platform where technical student builders can express their intention to begin building out a project with others, helping everyone scope out their early co-founder dynamics, commitment schedules, and frictions. Worst case scenario? You can add a project to your resume and move on to the next build.

All you need to do is this:

Register with your student .edu email, you can be of any level in the education world on the platform, it is not limited to undergraduates!

Provide Buildbook with your GitHub and one project that could showcase your technical ability for the platform. This could be a HW assignment, Coursera project, or anything related. We just want to make sure you know the language that will be used during these project builds

What you get out of it:

Allows you to develop new skills within your technical field

Bridges any gaps between the job requirements you typically look for and your previous work experience

Helps you form a bond and relationship with other people before committing to a bigger project involving vesting, IP, hiring, VCs, etc

A great learning experience and expansion of both your technical resources and network across all universities

Why this and not the YC Co-Founder Match?

I have been a user of YC Co-Founder Match since its launch, I and everyone who has used it will tell you this is not the way forward. Unless you are polished on the resume (FAANG, T25 school, etc) you don't stand out on the platform. Buildbook allows the rest of us to grow together and make those connections based on our goals and ideas while improving our skill sets.

I have opened the beta at Buildbook for a limited number of HackerNews users, mostly to manage my AWS costs as this is totally self-funded. I apologize because things may not be perfect and polished right now, still please do try it out and let me know if you have any suggestions or ideas on the future evolution. Happy to answer any questions you may have.

FYI this is totally free and my own first full-stack project!! Enjoy
