Absolutely my experience with Starbucks. Their default Pike Roast drip coffee is black as pitch and tastes like pure carbon. It could very well act as a smelling salt to snap one out of stupor or slumber.

Their lattes are a treat, though. A white mocha, pumpkin spice, or in the winter, a creme brulee latte are all divine. Basically hot milkshakes.
Well it’s a reputation, so it’s hard to quantify. But anecdotally I’ve heard from numerous people who had dealings with that they were very competent (compared to most British forces presumably).

I’ve also heard that their average level of policeman is more educated , ie many holding degrees, masters etc. I presume this must be due to the nature of the work they’re most known for ie combatting complex fraud, organised crime etc

This is factually incorrect.

Summing the votes of all parties that could be considered left (Green, S&D and The Left) you get 224 seats, which is about 31% of the European Union Parliament.

There's still the 2 VM limit that severely limits the usefulness of the feature. Is there any word on whether they are lifting that?

The problem is mostly the insecure defaults. Every modern phone is configured to be backward compatible and connect to an older generation of network if a newer generation is not present (like in the case of being deliberately jammed by an adversary). In 2G, mutual authentication is not existent, it happens only one way - only the network authenticates the handset. If you are close enough to the victim (only screaming louder, i.e. more power than the legitimate network, but from a significant distance doesn't work, because of the RTT of the signal - TDMA-based systems are very time-sensitive in nature), nothing prevents you from operating your own mobile infrastructure and disable any encryption (i.e. in 2G, during the handshake, you just say A5/0 - no encryption, to the handset) - you can not enable encryption anyway, because you do not have the corresponding key that is on the SIM card, only the legitimate carrier has that.

Whether or not the victim will be notified about the absence of encryption, depends on the state of a single bit on the SIM card [1]. In 99% of the cases, there is no warning that the handset is currently using A5/0.

From now on, you are at the grace of the rogue network operator - they can send you anything from any number, sit in the middle of every call and capture every frame of data.

I don't think the current level of technological education of the general public is enough for most of them to know why it is important to force your phone to work only with modern network standards and that is what police and other government agencies interested in operating IMSI catchers exploit.

Given the rate at which the elderly find themselves swindled out of money due to scams, hacks or any other method of invasion, I really don’t think loosening controls makes the most sense.

Might be interesting if companies offered the ability for someone to be a “steward” over another when it came to sensitive choices (like allowing new logins, sending money, etc). Of course that itself is a minefield of issues with family members themselves taking advantage of their elderly members. But maybe power of attorney would have to be granted?
Some people (usually the too self-centered ones) only discover it when it's too late.
How this works: you need to provide a written explanation why you want to do that and detailed optional reasons for this objection. You also need to validate your request with 2fa code and additional one you'll receive via email.

It seems that this process is still fully automated and nobody actually checks these written messages - but that's not surprising nowadays. For both my fb and instagram accounts which I barely use I've got: "We have considered your application and will take your objection into account. This means that your request will be implemented in the future." message.

Your kernel might be private, but all your files can be accessed by the game, if it's run by the same user, which I imagine is the setup for most gamers. And since games are proprietary and auto-updated, the potential to do damage or compromise privacy is very high. Adding the kernel to the mix basically changes nothing.

That almost sounds reasonable!

Except it isn't. This is the reason why software is shitty, and most teams are shitty, too.

I write software because I have a vision in my mind, which I want to achieve. Coding up stuff and trying it out helps a lot, but so do phases of quiet introspection and reflection.
> This may sound biased,

It certainly does, close to irrational even. IIRC memory compression is enabled by default on Windows as well.
> So today we are not living in patriarchy just starting with the fact that a man is punished for raping or killing a woman.

And there’s where we begin to drift away from credibility. A patriarch can choose to punish some of his sons while not punishing himself or other, more privileged, sons.

> Continuing further, while governments are indeed more often filled with men, the governments almost never make any decisions that are beneficial for men as a group.

And here we completely abandon credibility… a patriarchy wouldn’t [necessarily and certainly not with every action] benefit men as a group (that would be an andrarchy), it benefits the patriarchs as a group.
> This totally discounts any work that does not result in commits, such as requirements analysis, legacy code analysis, or code that results in insights but won't be merged.

I don't think it does. My point was not "do this OR that". My point is that posting a commit a day is a goal that's easily achieved if you do professional work. The work it takes you to fix a typo or add a commit is not something you need to plan around, or have to choose in place of doing requirements analysis.

Hey Hacker News!

I was a software engineer at Spotify, where clean code and a smooth developer experience became second nature. These principles are crucial for building great software.

When I transitioned to indie hacking full-time, I needed a solid starter kit to build new products quickly and efficiently, following best practices but also flexible and easy to use. That's how NextJet was born.

NextJet helps developers create products quickly without sacrificing code quality. It's packed with features for a successful SaaS, such as authentication, authorization, payments, emails, and more. With a focus on an excellent developer experience, NextJet can save you time and hassle whether you're starting a new project or streamlining your workflow.

I'm excited to share this with the community and look forward to your feedback. Let’s build some awesome stuff together!

I don't know what the percentage is, but having a school within walking or biking distance is definitely not uncommon in US suburbs. At least in the areas I've lived (in multiple parts of the country), schools are generally built close to large neighborhoods, and have dedicated infrastructure to help kids walk to school. Grocery stores are less likely to be within walking distance. But then, even if I could walk to a grocery store, I'm not sure I'd want to, because I would be limited by how much I can carry back, which means I'd have to go shopping more often.

Conversely, I have traveled to Europe and Japan. At least in the areas I went to, it didn't really seem any safer for kids to play outside than many parts of America. Yes, public transit was much better, but there were still lots of cars on the streets, and there were areas that weren't very pedestrian friendly. And in some cities it was quite difficult to find playgrounds. I don't doubt that there are places in Europe and Japan where kids can play outside without worrying about cars. But such conditions are not universal.

Oryx: introducing smart layers (app-specific keyboard shortcuts)
People have had the ability to use uBO and other blockers for YouTube ads for ages now, yet the vast majority of people either 1) don't use them at all and just suffer with ads or 2) subscribe to premium like you.

In my experience, most "normal people" either don't know about ad blockers, or (!) don't care and aren't interested in bothering with them. Frequently, they're too lazy or whatever to bother setting them up (even though it's just a simple installation from the Play Store), and won't do it unless their techie relative does it for them. Even after that, they'll frequently just go back to using MS Edge or whatever that doesn't have an ad-blocker installed, for some inscrutable reason.

So, I don't think there's any danger at all of "everyone doing that". If there was, YouTube would be bankrupt now. It's very far from that.
"To better illustrate the issue, I've added an examples section citing over 20 cases of link fraud on Google Search, Bing and X."

Looking at the examples this reminds me of the domain name "industry"; most recently, ICANN's "new gTLDs".

For example, eligrey.com includes an example showing that someone is running Trader Joes ads on Google but the advertiser isn't Trader Joes. The intentional design of Google's Search Ad system allows the ad to appear as if it has been purchased by Trader Joes.

This is how ICANN drummed up "business" that would otherwise not exist. Let's say ACME Company has not paid ICANN money for a domain name or gTLD; it has no interest. ICANN then asks, "Who wants to register a domain name that is confusingly similar to ACME Company?" ICANN knows the internet is full of low lifes who will readily carry out such scams. These are ICANN's customers. This is turn puts pressure on ACME to respond. They may pay an ICANN-approved registry for a domain name. Or they might pay some third party ICANN-approved "UDRP provider" to address the problem. Perhaps ICANN takes a cut of the registry or UDRP fees. None of these payments were necessary until ICANN decided to facilitate scams.

It's also how Google drums up "business" for its ad sales racket. ACME may have no interest in purchasing Search ads. But Google knows the internet is full of SEO and adtech scammers. These are its customers. This in turn puts pressure on ACME to respond. They may be more inclined pay Google for Search ads. If ACME Company is not interested in buying Google Search Ads then there should be no search ads for ACME. But that is not how the system is intentionally designed.

Most if not all of the so-called "tech" companies run this routine in some form.
It is like a billboard that no one is interesting in using, so the billboard company fills it with something like "Your competitor's ad goes here". Nothing wrong with this in the real world except in the case of so-called "tech" companies the competitor is allowed to use your company's name on the billboard to make it appear you paid for the ad. The idea is that if no one is interested in paying to advertise on the billboard for offensive purposes, the billboard company believes it play on peoples' fears and pressure them to spend money defensively. In the case of so-called "tech" companies, there is no problem finding scammers who will pay. The internet is full of them.

Yes, Big Tech is "enabling link fraud". It generates revenue. It is intentional to allow it.

> The rate of civilians and combatants dead is lower than the average of urban wars

You're talking proudly as if killing tens of thousands of civilians (most of which are children) is "a quota" you need hit.

> Israel seeks to minimize collateral damage to Palestinian victims

Where's the evidence? Please don't say something atrocious like "We could've killed more than 35,000 civilians if we wanted. This is just a taste". We've seen you bombing aid workers, ambulances, and international medics. Remember the World Central Kitchen aid convoy attack?

If your objective is truly to destroy the terrorists and you wish no harm to the innocent civilians. Why don't you take the civilians as refugees instead of bombing them and pushing them out of their land to other countries?
We've seen the blockade. We've seen the illegal settlements and kicking people of their homes and land. We've seen babies dying of malnutrition. We've seen how you treat the innocent civilians outside and long before this war. Are you going to say "Look at the US, our killing of aboriginals and taking over their land is on average with other colonial powers so that makes it ok"?

Isn't it weird how you claim you "didn't mean it" but at the same time you never actually express any empathy or condolences to the tens of thousands of victims and their families?
There's many years of evidence of other systems and how they work and their trade-offs, so you can read about them. I haven't read about a successful anarchistic system so I asked for more info in case they had it.
Grand ideas about structuring a society based on a premise or an ideology or ideal end up being disasters when attempts are made to put them into practice.

It should be pretty simple to understand why: no one person or group of people can predict all eventualities or contingencies and it is not possible to design a system based on rigid ideals that can fail gracefully.
I remember hearing that Apple's researching running AI models straight from flash storage (which would make immense amount of sense imo). You could create special, high read bandwidth flash chips (which would probably involve connecting a fast transciever in parallel to the 3D flash stack).

If you could do that, you could easily get hundreds of GB/s read speed out of simple TLC flash.

Obviously this is the future, but I think it's a promising one.

There's a big difference between "Everything was close enough to walk to" and the schools is close enough to walk to.

In my experience, if you live in a suburb you do usually have to drive to get to things like stores, restaurants, movie theaters, etc. But what is close are schools and playgrounds. In the suburb I currently live, all three levels of schools and over half a dozen playgrounds are within walking distance.

>Regardless of whether you think vaccines should be required or not, the mRNA COVID vaccines have objectively proven to be both safe and effective.

By all existing measures of safety they're by far the least safe vaccines on the market, and even their apparent effectiveness may have just been the result of their immune suppressive effect: https://www.frontiersin.org/journals/immunology/articles/10.... .

>In support of this hypothesis, Dr. Netea’s group reported dampened transcriptional reactivity of the immune cells and decreased type I interferon responses in vaccinated individuals to secondary viral stimulation (97), while our group described inhibition of adaptive immune responses and alteration in innate immune fitness in mice with this platform (99). The immune-tolerant environment induced by these vaccines is further supported by recent studies that have discovered a correlation between an increased number of prior mRNA vaccine doses and a higher risk of catching COVID-19 (100–102). Thus, these data suggest that these vaccines’ efficacy in decreasing disease severity and death might lie with their previously undiscovered immune suppressive characteristics.
