Not op, I have the previous model with the keyboard, and it works well but a bit janky: the screen and the keyboard are pretty good, the combination of touch screen e touchpad make it usable without a mouse for most workload.

I use it for anything, gaming, web surfing, developing and sometimes even work (it does raise a few eyebrows when I take it out of the bag)

The big problem is the connection between nextdock and steamdeck: if I connect it directly via single usb-c cable I lose the ability to charge the steamdeck (the nextdock does not supply enough energy for keeping the steamdeck charged) and I also lose a lot of io (next dock as only one fullsize usb 3.0 port) so instead I use the steam-deck-dock and connect it to the nextdock with two cable (hdmi e usb) so that I can keep the steamdeck fully charged.

I would love to find an usb-c cable splitter so that I can have a device simultaneously connected to an usb-c pd charger and a second connection only for usb data, there are some but none of them support usb alt mode necessary to use external screen.

>> the verbosity of Powershell syntax and the clumsiness of the shell place Perl and Powershell on opposite ends of the spectrum in terms of "looks" and the ability to quickly whip up something.

I completely agree.

I used Perl for many years and loved how quickly it could be used to hack together a quick solution to a problem.

I have been using PowerShell at home intermittently for the past few years and it feels much more clunky by comparison. It is nice to have a way to do automation on Windows (I have not tried it on other platforms), but the feel is very different.

And one thing that was great in Blade Runner was to recognize "the tyrrany of weather". Instead of erasing that from their source material.

Still great to this day.
If you read TFA then you will see the answer is yes. Not deep insights though, it is basically just keywords and a few numbers.

I think bytes is generally a better metric than number of entries, naturally 10,000 books will have a lot more insight than 10,000 one-liners.

e.g.:

> The first issue is the absolute disregard for any of the standards related to RSA key usage. Encrypting with the private key and decrypting with the public key is usually only done in the context of signing/verifying.

but... you are doing a verification at this stage. this is how public-key encryption works. but since the data is so short, the "signature" is just the data itself instead of a (essentially) a hash of it.

the stuff about pkcs#1 1.5 likewise is irrelevant. there's no way to get a padding oracle, and the Bleichenbacher '06 signature forgery scheme seems to be an attack on a bad signature verification algorithm and not an issue with the primitive. but we're not using signature verification here.
I just hate that some apps/services require 2FA. My 32 random characters which are unique to each service are secure enough. Adding another service on top just increases risk (as shown here; Authy was never going to do anything to protect me, but it has now leaked info about me.)

Who would have guessed? "The findings reveal that job sprawl and land mixed use are highly correlated with a lower risk of depression.

I am working on this tech job board integrating with GitHub in order for devs to show off their dev portfolio and skillset. Companies can find people that actually fit their needs and validate the wanted skill level, while devs can standout with their contributions.

The goal is for devs to be seen like the craftsmen and artists that they are.
Let me know what you think, this is also my first post in this community.
Thanks for the feedback, appreciate it. I wanted this to more entertaining than informative, but I understand why this might mislead.

- I agree that the section on pkcs#1 is at this point irrelevant, I left it in just to mention that fact. But I will probably take it out now :)

- Concerning the part of misusing RSA: My understanding is that you usually append the signature at the end, after a copy of the data which is not done here. I believe they are misusing it here because no library for RSA supports this use case, to decrypt using a public key you always have to provide the message and signature. This isn't possible here because the message is encrypted.
So I think they are misusing RSA.

Oh. Fucking great. So I'm locked in to using Authy forever now I guess.

I hate 2FA. It literally does exactly nothing for security, it's just another tool for these big companies like Google and Twilio to put themselves between me and the services I need access to, all while locking me in to their services and siphoning out information they can sell to advertisers. I hate it. I hate the "security" people who are pushing this garbage. I hate everyone involved in this space. I hate that I now can't log in to anything without going to fetch my phone. I hate these people.

> Getting a new, out of state number

The problem with that idea is that when you make local calls, people think that you are the spammer.

I too have an out-of-state number after having moved, and I can definitely confirm that when I make a local call, some people will not pick up after seeing the unusual area code on their caller ID. They told me so.

There's another problem too: Even when I leave voicemail for a local business (plumber, dentist, replying to a "for sale" ad), some people will be thinking, Why does this guy need a plumber or want to buy my kayak if they live 1500 miles away?

I've resorted to leaving an explanation saying "Even though my area code is XYZ, I'm in the same city as you".

Karl Popper was being a logician about it. People aren't claiming supernatural powers with market trend analysis like some Helena Blavatsky of electronics or that these "laws" hold like thermodynamics.

If it's been good for 60 years so that might continue or maybe something unexpected will happen.

Popper's piecemeal alternative predicts nothing. The market trend analysis is at least accurate > 0% of the time. It's a non-scientific process with unquantifiable accuracy but it is empirically non-zero. For instance, Geofferey Moore's adoption curves proposed in 1991 are widely found but, every now and then, the galloping animal is a zebra. This doesn't mean you shouldn't plan for horses.

Presuming a decade or two from now people will connect their wearables powered by kinetic charging to foldable e-paper with a transparent solar panel layer is just a bet.

Maybe something radical will happen instead: The public payphone will come back as a public computer that people will biometrically log into after shunning personal electronics as toxic spy machines ruining society. Eh, probably not, but maybe.
I think you may be having a failure of imagination. That generation will be creating additional tooling to use this wherever possible, and taking advantage of any interoperability they or their peers can hack onto any interface. Our generation will be hesitant but they will not be, and many of the upcoming generation will have a deep understanding of where LLM’s have appropriate vs. awkward application.
It's not impossible, but the mainstream theories such as 'Out of Africa' and most anthropological evidence suggests that the flow was from Africa to Indonesia and Africa to Europe, and not "back from Indonesia". But see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_Indonesia and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polynesia#History and https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/08/science/polynesian-ancest... as well as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiregional_origin_of_modern...

(I am absolutely amazed by all the various humanity and technology origins. It's almost as if there is a direct path from the first person who used teeth and fingernails to pry a rock and fiber to make a spear to kill an animal and use its bones to make high quality tools for knapping stone, all the way to the lathe, which was the tool that bootstrapped the industrial revolution).
Thin-film solar panels will be much cheaper than that. They will be printed in huge quantities.

Lowering cost per kWh is great, but if power demand increases at about the same rate or faster, then the impact is minimal.

Cost per bit of internet plans has also gone down a lot in the past decade, but you’d be forgiven for not noticing on account of all the new JavaScript, ads, and other website bloat.

Using less exotic materials is exciting, though! Regardless of whether the cost feels different.

This reminds me… some time ago I made my own Firefox extension to do full-text search of all my webpages. It’s in three parts: a server running in the background to interface with an SQLite database, a minimal extension to send text to that server, and a little GUI to query the database.

Unfortunately, all this makes it an utter pain to set up. It’s also somewhat specialised to my own very minimal needs. When I’ve mentioned it in the past, people have suggested open-sourcing it, but for these reasons I’ve resisted it. This post now makes me wonder if I should look into ways to improve it…

dang certainly does a great job moderating HN, but I'll venture to say it would still have a far more open-minded and intellectually curious vibe than Next Door even if it were left unmoderated.

I think the problem with Next Door is that traits like these (which HN tends to aggregate) are rare in the general population. To get the vibe you want, you'd probably need to curate to the point that you'd be blocking like 70% of people or more. And that has its own issues, since it would then feel like some kind of closed elitist club—which also definitely wasn't the atmosphere in the internet's early days.
Destroying the metal casing means the whole disk takes about 10 seconds to destroy, and doesn't require a "stomp on a screwdriver" step that OSHA may not approve of.

> In most modern ML circles “regression” analysis refers to the prediction of continuous variables (...)

You're voicing very opinionated takes while showing considerable ignorance on the topic.

Classification problems are solved with trial functions adjusted to the training set through regression. These trial functions,once fitted, represent membership functions. They are essentially interpolation functions that, say, converge to 1 when close to elements of the training set of a specific class, and 0 for members of all other classes. In grey areas where elements of the training set are sparsely distributed, these membership functions can output values in the middle, because they are interpolating.

That's literally data mining 101.

> What I said was that regression metrics are not good for evaluating usefulness in classification problems.

That's simply not true. It's like saying models that do not fit the data are good approximations of the data. Another way to put it is praising the accuracy of a broken clock because it's spot on two times a day.

> The fact that there are mitigating circumstances to justify why this might not be the case is not evidence that R2 is still a good thing to use. It’s actually evidence of the opposite.

I don't think you have an adequate grasp on the subject, neither classification problems nor linear models. Therefore, your personal baseless assertions don't mean anything nor bring any value to the discussion.
