> IR isn't a calling, it's a sentence

Policy (of which IR is a subset) is a calling (ie. job).

If you don't have an academic or professional background in the spaces you are discussing about, you're just noise (which I am increasingly becoming)

> So was Han, so was Tang. Basically all the good periods.

That's a very rose tinted view of a past without modern healthcare, with rampant feudalism and slavery, and an extremely stratified social system.

> Fast forward to Xi's COVID: great excuse to kick the foreigners out. What. What do you mean our forex is tanking? Come back, investors! We're "open for business"!

Foreign investors were leaving before COVID. The 2015-16 Market Crash was rough and both the US and China began cracking down on cross-listing Chinese entities in Western capital markets, preventing investors to have the ability to re-coup investments.
There's also BedJet, who makes a fancy-pants bed blower for between your sheets. It's running on an esp32 inside of itself to control the heater and the blower and the remote control, but they didn't quite make it as smart as I'd like.

I don't know what you're on about, but it does show the past and any new network activity.
the world if filled with "good enough" tools and I don't foresee that ever changing tbh. You'd have to offer something really substantially better than the status quo to gain critical mass. That being said, I think the only thing about git that doesn't make reasonable sense are the damn command line flags and subcommand names. The actual semantics of git are pretty much exactly what you want for source control.
Yeah, I'm not sure what the better word is. As a programmer, I use APIs. "interact with", "code to/against". I think "user" is OK. We're all users at different levels of abstraction.

Maybe good to mention torn pages somewhere too? Both MySQL and Postgres jump through some hoops to both detect them and repair them [1][2]. So, even the scenario in the post where fsync is used to harden writes, the database still needs to handle torn pages (or requires using a file system \ storage that guarantees atomic page writes at the page size the database is using as several managed\cloud databases do).

You could walk for many days without food if it was your only hope of living.
The Newton's third-law explanation is "air bangs into a bottom of airfoil and pushes it up". Without having the concepts of boundaries layers, laminar and turbulent flow, flow separation and (more generally) the entire Navier-Stokes toolbox you don't have the tools for explaining why turbulent flow is a problem, for example.
Certainly, but in my org they're trusted with sudo access (which gets logged to syslog).
It really seems like it has to be something like that. The problem is there is no detail in the docs and no status bits in the chip. There's no way to know when the auto-cal runs.

One of the several things I did to eliminate the problem was to disable the auto-cal during a UART reception (the STM32 is the bus master so it knows when it will be receiving) and re-enable it when it is finished. It absolutely confirmed that is the glitch, but I don't think I'll ever get a true why unless an ST engineer wants to chime in!

>People are generally not trying to get root via an SSH RCE over localhost. That's going to be a pretty small sample of people that applies to

It's going to apply to the amount of servers that an attacker has low-privileged access (think: www-data) and an unpatched sshd. Attackers don't care if it's an RCE or not: if a public sshd exploit can be used on a system with a Linux version without a public Linux LPE, it will be used. Being local also greatly increases the exploitability.

Then consider the networks where port 22 is blocked from the internet but sshd is running in some internal network (or just locally for some reason).

Show HN: Expensio – self-hosted personal finance tool
I made this tool to scratch my own itch. I hate budgeting, but I want to save money. All existent tools are bloated imho, so I made my own.

The goals for me were:
- easy to use
- easy to fix accounting if I forgot to track for a few days
- self-hosted so my data is private

Winamp would like to have a word with you :) Granted I'm using the latest release from 2018, but I still sometimes load up v2.x released in 1998 just to show people that 25+ year old software still works just fine... even the AVS visualizer and Shoutcast internet radio features work, which is to me just insane.

I also use older software quite often that has long since been updated, such as older versions of Audacity, Ableton, Adobe Premiere, etc. for various reasons such as: not wanting to spend money, avoiding spyware, ads (see: Windows 11), and other bloat which often IMO negatively outweighs the positivity of new features. There are a lot of other small utilities that I still use that are 10+ years old because they still work fine and I know how to use them blind-folded. There are also tools that haven't received updates in many years but still work great, why would I bother to look for something new that potentially will spy on me and not offer the same functionality?
I wouldn't say it's more robust. One pass under a bridge proves that AM has problems.

Your constructed example would fail even under pre-MQD Chevron because banning companies is not a reasonable interpretation of a "technology". Maybe you find the case obvious (unlike the SCOTUS judges, who were split) because you are missing some its basic contours?
Yes. Exactly. It omits future network calls (things that have not yet happened by the moment you look), which is what the person you were replying to was talking about.

Yeesh. What a weird area to make deep cuts. They spend all that money developing the hardware, successfully, but it needs the software in order to shine.
Even if it didn’t have the intentional backdoor… you probably should be treating it as hostile anyway.

Even where not intentionally hostile, not intentionally privacy invading, not trying to fetch updates so it can show you more ads, not… most of this stuff is so hopelessly out-of-date and full of security vulnerabilities it’s only not hostile out of luck.

I don’t connect anything to WiFi unless absolutely necessary. And by that I don’t mean “the device demands it” (I just won’t buy the damn thing) but “it’s a core part of the functionality I’m asking of it”. I’ll prefer zwave/zigbee, Bluetooth, or something else wherever possible when communication is required. (If I were forced to use this bed and it had no manual controls I would definitely have used Bluetooth, avoiding this whole issue.)

And even for the devices that do get a WiFi connection… they run entirely isolated, on a separate SSID and VLAN from my normal devices and traffic, and with a whitelist for what traffic is allowed.

As far as I’m concerned the only difference between this bed and the other devices is that we know about the issues with this bed. We have no reason to believe that the other devices are any better, and in fact a pretty large body of evidence suggesting that they’re probably not.
Very artistic, but $6310 USD ?
Now to be fair, sshd on OpenBSD is part of OpenBSD rather than an add-on application and I think it would be fair to count exploits in it against the OS, if it had vulnerabilities there.

> I've generally come to think that unit tests should be used to baseline something after it ships, but aren't that useful before that point

I disagree, but not entirely. I think there's a balance. Tests can be a great way to execute code in isolation with expected inputs/outputs and can help dramatically in absence of other ways to execute the code. But in general, I mostly agree. Tests are mostly valuable as a way of ensuring you don't break something that was previously working, but they are still valuable for validating assumptions as you go.

Why is this one labelled with start_date: 2011-02-07?

> Afghan, Coalition Forces Clear Northern Kandahar ISAF Joint Command - Afghanistan 2011-02-D-081 For Immediate Release KABUL, Afghanistan (Feb. 12) – Afghan and coalition forces set out to provide security and assist the local population during a clearing operation in a remote village in Shah Wali Kot district, Kandahar province, Feb. 8. District Chief of Police Bacha Khan, and his policemen; Afghan commandos from 2nd Company, 3rd Commando Kandak, along with U.S. service members from Special Operations Task Force – South, searched the village throughout the day and detained 20 suspected insurgents. Also found were 80 pounds (36 kilograms) of homemade explosives and various improvised explosive device-making materials. Leading a squad during the operation was Afghan commando Sgt. Hafiz Rahman, who said this operation has shown him progress. “The people are respecting us,” Rahman said. “They ask us if we want tea, or ‘do we want bread?’ They are thankful for the security.” Children during the operation brought commandos blankets in the evening and offered them food throughout the day.

Trying to find the source, I'm also not seeing any indication of Feb 7.

---------------

And why is this labelled as Mar 6, GPT-4o and I personally find Mar 7 to be logical.

ISAF Joint Command Morning Operational Update, March 8, 2011 ISAF Joint Command - Afghanistan 2011-03-S-022 For Immediate Release KABUL, Afghanistan (March 8, 2011) Afghan and coalition forces targeted a Taliban district chief, killed one insurgent and detained several others during an operation in Burkah district, Baghlan province, yesterday. The Taliban district chief maintains ties to Taliban senior leadership throughout Kunduz, Baghlan, and Takhar provinces. He is involved in purchasing weapons and IEDs. Intelligence reports led the security force to the targeted compound in the city, where Afghan forces called for all occupants to exit the buildings peacefully before conducting a search. During that time, an armed individual threatened the security force and the force returned fire, killing him. Several suspected insurgents were detained after initial questioning at the scene.

But despite that the "finetuned" model also gets Mar 6. How does the finetuned model get Mar 6?

Oddly, in Ireland we did the opposite; the last DAB transmitter was switched off a year or so ago (digital radio, oddly, is still available bugs DVB-T2, bundled with the terrestrial digital tv signals, though I’m not sure anyone really listens to it that way).
If I stick out a flat board from a moving car window, and hold it at an angle, it will "lift up". So indeed, airfoil shape does not matter. Angle of attack matters more, because that dictates the path of least resistance.

Planes fly by slicing through a lattice of air, with blades (wings) that only slice easily in directions that lie on a single plane. Orthogonal tail fins means that the vehicle doesn't go from side to side as easily, so it mostly keeps flying on a line. Take a `+`-shape and elongate it so you get a "dentastix" like shape, then hold that out the car window. It will go in whichever direction you point it.

Same idea of a boat rudder. And yet with boat rudders, we don't say "force of lift". The angle of attack changes, which means it now cuts through the water in a different direction (and the rudder piece wants to go straight in the direction it is pointing, since that way has comparatively little resistance in the water), which changes the way the rear of the ship moves which ultimately steers the ship.

As the employer, of course you want someone with passion for your business. But I think the point of the article is that the question "why do you want to work here?" is so cliche that it doesn't work anymore. Candidates just embellish the answer that they have prepared and even memorized, when not straight lie, like the "name 3 weaknesess" nobody is going to answer in full truth.

Inherently? Nothing... but if I cite a far-left source to support something I'm arguing you will, justifiably, scoff at it. Heavily partisan sources are rarely reputable by themselves.

A lot of Apple IIs, mine included, got Z-80 coprocessors for running CP/M. The Z-80 card was, IIRC, the first Microsoft hardware product. Alongside with the Videx 80-column card, it was the most popular expansion for the Apple II plus computers in Brazil as I grew up.

I ran my II+ in dual-head mode, with a long green phosphor monitor on the Videx and a color TV on the main board output.

I guess that is just one of the many risks you have to take if your trying to build a business. A couple of hundred dollars in licensing fees are not going to sink your product. For a side project that you don't expect to make any money it might be too much, but in that case you could just as well open source the project.

20 years ago, Germany decided to stop FM broadcasting in 2015. Digital radio (DAB+) was heavily advertised. Despite a fear campaign ("your radio will stop working soon!"), almost nobody cared or replaced their working cheap kitchen or car radio. The plan to stop FM broadcasting was finally abandoned in 2011, because radio stations would've lost 80% of their listeners. My parents bought a DAB+ kitchen radio in 2009, but never liked it and it stopped working after a few years. They replaced it with a new FM radio.

Let's not get pedantic about what "proving UB" actually means -- that might lead to philosophic discussions about sentient compilers.

Fact is that in this instance, the compiler did not remove a basic black of code (including or excluding "observeable side-effects" leading up to the point of UB happening). It would not be valid for the compiler to assume that the path is never taken in this case, even assuming that UB never happens, because depending on the the value of the variables, there are possible paths through the code that do not exhibit UB. In other words, "the compiler wasn't able to prove UB".

So this is not an instance of the situation that we are discussing. The emitted code is just fine, unless a division by zero occurs. Handling division by zero is responsibility of the programmer.

Nobody is arguing that UB can lead to weird runtime effects -- just dereference an invalid pointer or whatever.

The issue discussed is that based on assumptions about UB, the compiler emits code that does not correspond to the source in an intuitive way, for example a branch of code is entirely removed, including any observeable side-effects that logically happened before the UB.

Now the point of the GGP poster is probably that the observeable side-effect (the volatile access) does not happen at all because the UB happens first. But I would classify this case differently -- the volatile access is not elided from the branch.

Further more, it might well be that (and let me assume so) the order of the volatile access and the division operation that causes the UB are probably not defined as happening in a strict sequence (because, I'm assuming again as any reasonable standards layman would, UB is not considered a side-effect (that would kinda defeat the point, disallowing optimizations)). So it's entirely valid for the compiler to order the operation that causes the (potential) UB before the volatile access.
> what is the ROI of building and maintaining their own solution versus biting the bullet and pivoting so they can use pre-existing products?

Using made-up numbers, if you have 50000 employees using source control at your company and a custom solution would improve their productivity by 0.1%, having a team of 10 building such a solution is positive ROI. In contrast, if you have 1000 employees, it would be a negative ROI. This is why it's worth doing if you're Google or Facebook but not most other companies.
