> But beyond "go along to get along", another reason we don't pursue what we're confused about is because we're embarrassed that we're confused in the first place.

Well said. I have seen this so many times, and it’s so frustrating. My wife – a Montessori teacher – said she routinely has kids refusing to admit that they don’t know how to do something.

I don’t know how or why the idea that lack of knowledge is shameful came about, but it’s antithetical to growth. Everyone fails. Embrace being wrong, and learn from it.
This software pings home. Also uses .NET which is complete overkill for such a simple app.

honestly, i found a solution for this. it is a little unethical, but is as unethical as them forcing me to never be able to unsubscribe (there's only a short time where you can unsubscribe once per year). i have a card that i use only for recurring subscriptions, when one of the recurring subscriptions gets problematic, i first block the card (this is important!) and then delete it and create a new one. this way they can not continue to charge me.

if you don't block it, they may be able to use the associated card payment token to charge you even after the card has been deleted. on one of my banks i can even see the associated tokens and delete them individually.

they can sue me, sure, but nobody will do that for 10€/month.

There is supposedly neanderthal DNA in some modern humans, implying that offspring were viable. Breeding resulting in viable offspring is one of the only consistent definitions of what a species even is.

Yeah spiders are uniquely smart for their size. I had one using stone and some complicated physics to catch pray (don’t remember exactly the details but was impressed)
You should scan on the device before it goes on the network. P2P networking or not, the app should include a scanner.

Even if you use an open-source clone without scanner, your contacts most likely will use an app with builtin scanner. Your communications will be scanned on their end.

At that point I'm wondering why we don't also open and scan regular mail at the post office before delivery.
To me Angular seems even more of a corporate (sorry "enterprise") framework, and does a better job at providing the "right way" for the entire application architecture. React (now) has a bunch of rules you have to remember, tricks to get performant code, etc., but it still leaves too much developer freedom on how to structure things. They should have gone full corporate, with rules and prescribed best practices on every aspect, so a new hire can just follow the manual. Redux was perfect in that sense, verbose and predictable, like a factory.

Of course, I would rather quit than work within such a strict framework, but React going there halfway is even worse.
think of terrorists. Suppose your country has banned/restricted selling guns and explosives. Do you think this will stop terrorists? No, it'll stop normal citizens to not do any of this stuff... but they will not be affected since they are not terrorists.

Terrorists on the other hand will find illegal ways to overcome the restrictions. It's the same with encryption - (open-source) tools with e2ee are already broadly available, sideloading is available - nothing will stop terrorists/other criminals to just install that and continue doing what they want.

On the other hand this chat control opens a huge area of opportunities for govts to spy on citizens or maybe journalists/other politicians that they dislike. And this is if we assume the system doesn't have bugs that would allow third parties/hackers to break it and get all the info by themselves, or bugs that can trigger a false-positive event.

That's why it's a bad idea. Criminals will find ways to overcome the limit, govs will get new tools for suppression (even if current govs are 'good', what if the next govt is some ultra conservative or radical nationalist, do you think they'll not use these new tools?) and normal ppl are basically left without any privacy
Yea, and the MacBook Air is 27.5% faster for single-core while the Snapdragon X Elite is only 18.7% faster for multi-core. It looks like the Qualcomm is also designed for 15% higher TDP wattage so it could simply be that Qualcomm went for more heat (possibly for bragging rights in benchmarks).

These laptops might end up being great, but Apple's M-series laptops aren't just fast. They feel hugely different to use than any Intel based laptop I've had. I think that people also underestimate the importance of single-core performance. Most workloads simply aren't well designed for multi-core and single-core performance is one reason that the iPhone is so nice to use.
The best answer is that you probably don't want to use Futhark for that - it's a specialised, rather restricted language. There are ways to encode irregular arrays, but it's not even remotely as ergonomic as in other languages (it can be plenty fast, however). For a particularly simple example, see https://futhark-lang.org/examples/triangular.html

In the future, or in a future similar language, one might well imagine an ability to "box" arrays, like in APL, which would allow true "arrays of arrays" with no restrictions on sizes.
OP knows all of this, he's being dishonest to push an agenda sadly.

Look at his submission history and you'll see similar attempts to do that. In his comments he also comes to the defence of an ex moderator of 8chan that had answers other than "no, absolutely not" to whether CSAM should be allowed on it.

China is already using this opportunity. Yuan is much more popular in Russia than rupee. As for sanctions, governments can shield the businesses from them - we have seen that before. Unless EU or USA want to sanction the entire China, the effects will be limited and won’t act as deterrent. This war has already been lost by the West.

If the problem you're solving isn't sufficiently complex, there's probably already a solution out there and you're re-inventing the wheel.
Unlike "the third world", BRICS has a formal organisation, a headquarter, regular summits, a development bank (unimaginateively named "New Development Bank"), a liquidity support framework, and others. It's not a very close association, but it's also far more than just a label.
Zero to Performance Hero: How to Benchmark and Profile Your eBPF Code in Rust
Leftists threw these words around for so long that they are utterly devoid of the emotional power they once had. Now the backlash is coming, but most of the leftists on the internet--who've spent the last two decades hurling insults instead of engaging in good faith--are so unpracticed as to be largely incapable of engaging in good faith. So they just throw around the old words and wonder why they don't work anymore.
That's not unfair, the move was clearly to benefit a PaaS provider in detriment of the majority of React users. They are clearly not taking most users need in consideration and they should be judged for that.
For a similar example from the UK, look up "good day to bury bad news" [1]

Quite often a government body has missed some performance targets, suffered cost overruns or has other bad news which they need to announce publicly at some point. But they can choose when the announcement comes out.

Then along comes September 11th 2001, planes crash into the twin towers, and while the towers are still burning government PR teams are rushing out the announcement that they've badly missed their train punctuality targets.

They know the news and social media are going to be full of the big event for days or weeks. By the time things are quiet enough that the newspapers have space to report on train punctuality, the bad figures are old news.

This works equally well with big good-news stories like royal weddings and big sporting events.

The "good day to bury bad news" quote is interesting because someone leaked an e-mail where a government PR boss literally encouraged it. Usually such encouragement would be by telephone or whatsapp to avoid creating a paper trail.

it's not on the EP schedule. the council vote is of course not meaningless, but it doesn't mean much by itself.

https://www.europarl.europa.eu/plenary/en/votes.html?tab=ord...

... the submitted article is complete nonsense "EU citizens would no longer be able to communicate in a safe and private manner on the Internet." ..

no, here's the draft law

https://cdn.netzpolitik.org/wp-upload/2024/05/2024-05-28_Cou...

see page 39,

"Without prejudice to Article 10a, this Regulation shall not prohibit or make impossible end-to-end encryption, implemented by the relevant information society services or by the users."

It's a broad framework and - based on my cursory reading:

- providers have to set up a counter-abuse team and fund it
- authorities and industry-wide cooperation on trying to come up with guidelines and tech
- counter-abuse team needs to interpret the guidelines, do "due diligence"
- provider needs to have monitoring to at least have an idea of abuse risks
- if there are, work on addressing them if possible without breaking privacy

As far as I understand the point is have more of services like "YouTube for Kids", where you can give your kid an account and they can only see stuff tagged "kid appropriate" (and YT simply said we are going to be sure there are no bad comments, so there's no comment section for these videos - which hurts their engagement, which hurts profitability).

There's a section about penalties and fines, up to 6% of global revenue, if the provider doesn't take abuse seriously. And - again, based on my understanding - this is exactly to prod big services to make these "safer, but less profitable" options.

see page 45 for actual things providers might need to implement

Show HN: Flowery – Vocabulary builder powered by LLM and spaced repetition
Dear hackers:

Whether English is your first or nth natural language, you may be familiar with this vexing experience: You encounter a flowery word in a book, podcast, or HN comment; you endeavor to memorize it to hone your speech and writing; you purge it from your synapses by the next day.

Flowery (https://flowery.app) streamlines vocabulary building by: • Rendering a typographically pristine Oxford dictionary and thesaurus.
• Conjuring up the stochastic parrot to eliminate the tedium of flashcard creation.
• Scheduling the flashcards with a spaced repetition algorithm.

About the tech stack:

The server is built on Rust, Axum, and PostgreSQL. The client is built on Google’s Lit. We are betting the farm on the web—you won’t find Flowery on any app store. We have gone to great lengths to polish UX, especially on iOS where we rolled our own virtual keyboard, textboxes, and text selection. We strive to make Flowery an exemplar of the quasi-native web app.

Non-obvious features to try:

• “Add to Home Screen” on iOS.
• “Add to Dock” on macOS Sonoma.
• Install on Android and desktop Chrome.
• Append an ellipsis to search by prefix.
• Touch a flashcard’s blank for a hint.
• Keyboard navigation inspired by the one true editor.

Give it a whorl [sic] and share your thoughts!

Florally yours,

Also concerning that he seems to have more input on policy than all EU citizens together. This democracy the EU is implementing is becoming a joke.
Unless the issue is that your setup cannot composite at 60 fps (don’t get me wrong, not pretending that Windows isn’t at fault if that’s the case), then neither double buffering nor software cursors introduce delay.

Unless your goal is tearing updates (a whole other discussion), then your only cause of latency is missed frame deadlines due to slow or badly scheduled rendering.

There is no need to switch to software cursor rendering unless you want to render something incompatible with the cursor plane, e.g. massive buffers or underlaying the cursor under another surface. Synchronization with primary plane updates is not at all an issue.

One of its champions, Ursula von der Leyen, is pretty popular. One of the main reasons for that is that people don't understand what she is saying.
Your list of questions is meaningless, because that is not what is worth taking issue with. What is worth taking issue with is the snide assumption that BRICS means the combination of those traits instead e.g. the best traits of each of those countries, or just the average traits of those countries.

That doesn't mean BRICS has achieved lots. It does mean that his snide comment has no merit with respect to saying anything about BRICS whatsoever.
Yeah, not verifying server cert or OCSP/CRLs is a problem. DNS attacks can redirect and you'd be none the wiser.

You don’t need to invade to exert control and one way to do so is limiting communications.

The DMARC policy is none. Meaning if both SPF and DKIM fail then nothing should be done about the email. Now, many email security gateways and spam filters will just have rules automatically blocking anything that fails SPF regardless but you want to eventually get to `p=reject`.

Start with something like `p=quarantine; pct=25` to have 25% of reported DMARC policy failures be marked for quarantine, review the reports after a week and then ramp it up to 50%, 75%, 100% every few days. Then if your domain is not having a significant percentage marked for quarantine in your DMARC reports after a week or two, switch to `p=reject; pct=100%` and continue to monitor the reports to make sure everything is good.

DMARC is not bulletproof to people using your domain as spam though because even with a reject policy, if SPF fails but DKIM passes, DMARC will pass or vice versa. It helps curb abuse and takes 15 minutes of effort to set up once but still is not enough to kill spam.

When discussing extreme punishments like this, you must consider false convictions. Only in a perfect justice system (which is not achievable) could we allow such punishments. FWIW, I also feel this way about the death penalty.

When proposing “permanent” punishments like this, always put yourself in the shoes of someone who is falsely convicted. And consider that false convictions can (and do) happen for a wide variety of reasons: racial bias, political bias, cover ups, government oppression, etc.
> Edit Where by "expanded to the US" is literally "failed to capture any significant market for a long time"

Sure, but they still decided to expand to the US, despite a worse outlook, before expanding to the remaining EU countries. As said, you'd never see a US company do that.
The same thing happend with Netflix raising prices. Probably everyone nobody canceled their subscription after the increased price just becouse it’s not worth the effort. And the price raise is incremental just so nobody will complain.
> The argument to moderation fallacy is when you are saying that the good answer is good because it is in the middle. I don't do that, I find the good answer and I just state that it happens to be in the middle.

If that’s your position you should remove the word “therefore” from your final sentence. Because that word means that the conclusion was drawn from the previous statements.

> if indeed you cannot trust no-one

That’s not what I said. Though admittedly my argument was too compressed and assumed the reader would understand I’m referring to the often used “good guy law enforcement” arguments. My fault for not having been clearer, I went for brevity.

> That's a fallacy. YOU are spending your time answering my comment instead of working to stop this legislation.

I don’t see how that’s a fallacy. Which one is it? You could maybe call it hypocritical or inconsistent, but none of those are fallacies. Furthermore, the point—which feels ridiculous that it needs to be spelled out—is not that you need to be fighting the legislation 24/7, but that when discussing it you should strive to focus on what it is, not what it could or should be.

> you are, incorrectly, arguing that the best strategy would be to not propose any alternative

Again, that is not what I said. Though in this instance you seem to be taking a bad faith position. I have said twice that it’s worth to have the conversation. I even said I’d read up more on your example because I wasn’t familiar with it. You’re misconstruing my argument in a way that feels really dishonest.

To many people these days, computers are synonymous with laptops. They have limited need for portability or, if they need portability, a couple of hundred grams does not mean much to them. As for battery life, it is possible to get PCs that will run for a full day without charging. Yeah, that is not as good as two days. On the other hand, it's not necessarily meaningful. People who travel a lot or do a lot of field work may need it, but it won't be a primary concern for most.

I'm still trying to figure out the reproductive organ bit. It sounds like an issue for people who use their computer in awfully unergonomic postures, particularly since most computers radiate heat towards the back rather than the front.

I was thinking that maybe that is what we are talking about. But convinced myself otherwise. Surely we don't need that much math to show if we cut the processing time in half the processing time will be cut in half. But if that is all we are saying I guess I can accept that as quite trivial.

I could say the same thing to you. You don't get to define "we" any more than I do. In fact my use of the collective "we" was directed primarily towards the claim of xenophobia - which definitely WAS an accusation thrown at people who supported Brexit. The thrust of my point was to single out the political ruling class in the EU for their refusal to listen to the opinion of their subjects. (I can't call them constituents, as that would imply some sort of representative democracy was taking place).

"So no, the UK didn’t vote leave because they “hate the unelected, undemocratic, wannabe-communist institutions”,"

Yes they very definitely did. The economic arguments were never the main drivers of Brexit. It was about national sovereignty, and electoral accountability - and this new Orwellian EU law, (enacted "for the children", of course) only serves to reinfoce that view.
