it was evident to me from your other comments that you yourself are an immigrant to the west, but it was also evident that you believed the west is in a better place because "it is doing things right", and therefore other places (including where you came from) are doing things wrong. my comment was less about who you are (ethnically, passport-wise, etc), but about the cultural superiority you ascribe to the west with your comment (which many non-white non-westerners do). i myself am an american citizen by immigration, probably for similar reasons to yourself, after having lived approx half my life in 4 other countries, but i don't know how relevant that is either. that these countries have welcomed you and i with open arms doesn't reinforce your opinion that they won't harm someone who didn't follow their beliefs, it just so happens that we follow their beliefs and so we get along. in fact, your comment is literally arguing for not welcoming people who don't follow your beliefs (assuming they are of violent intent).

this discussion imo is far too complex for a HN comment thread, but your depiction of "barbarism" is deeply rooted in western narratives omitting details such as many people from those places also find those atrocities terrible, and they are perpetuated because of a few powerful bigoted people and lots of propaganda. when atrocities are justified with propaganda, i think it's crude to think the people or the societies are barbaric as much as the leaders (usu. religious ones) are. western societies moved past honor killings, feudalism, slavery, concentration camps and other barbaric practices not-so-long ago, and to a great extent because of the resources they extracted from other countries during that time afforded them to bandwidth to focus on equitable societies. following that, wanting to isolate people of those other societies from also becoming part of these more equitable societies by precluding them as barbaric and therefore shouldn't be allowed here, imo, is what is barbaric.

the contemporary west has also repeatedly shown itself capable of direct barbarism too, like brutally levelling a school of innocent children in Pakistan or drone-striking innocents as collateral damage with no restraint. or what, is unjustified murder & cruelty only barbaric when done on your own soil, and fair game done in someone else's country with citizen tax dollars?

also somewhat unrelated but yes, serbian is white insofar as they genetically present features mostly associated with western white society (light-colored eyes, hair color other than black, caucasian bone structure) so without considering family circumstances/political background, that's white, at least on observation. of course with your mixed heritage i understand this may not be true of you specifically.
The statement "Security is a process, not a product" refers to no _product_ can be a security strategy.

That's the negative part. The positive part is that security considerations have to run through an entire organization because every part of the organization is an "attack surface".

The whole concept of CrowdStrike is that it's there to prevent individual users from doing bad things. But that leaves the problem of CrowdStrike doing bad things. The aim of security as process is avoiding the "what-a-mole" situation that this kind of thinking produces.
It’s interesting to consider whether a simulated rainstorm is in fact possible. Not a crude numerical simulation like those used for forecasting, but one fine-grained enough to accurately predict the trajectory of every drop.
I wouldn’t call China a communist regime. They are highly capitalist. What’s communist about China other than the name of the party?
And, I guess, before that, there was AMD SymNow, which was plug-in extendable and gave a plugin full control over CPU being emulated.
I wonder if something like that is available somewhere?

Time. Learn a little Haskell this month. Learn a little Haskell in December. Some more over the next few years. In between you will be learning more about programming in general and many other things including how you learn.

There’s no midterm in eight weeks; no final grade after that, and nobody who matters cares how good or bad you are at Haskell. Like most things, it’s not worth having an opinion about.

Give yourself permission to write Haskell poorly because that makes it more likely you will write Haskell. Give yourself permission to not learn Haskell because maybe you like the idea of writing Haskell more than the work of learning Haskell…

…yep, time and permission are the best resources for learning Haskell (or anything else as an adult). It really doesn’t matter what book you pick. Either you enjoy committing or you don’t. Either the work feels satisfying while doing the work or doesn’t.

When the work is truly satisfying, it doesn’t need to be optimized against imagined external opinions. You just do it because it is what you do.

Or not. Good luck.

We got the HANS device because NASCAR drivers kept dying despite their helmets technically not failing “but the helmet system” did. (extreme whiplash leads to basal skull fractures even in the absence of a direct hit to the helmet)

Resilience is all about identifying these technically correct nitpicky details. If we know the parachutes were fine but the system wasn’t, we can go fix the system.
He got us out of Afghanistan too... this was a huge win and was very risky. Doesn't get enough credit for this one.

Agreed on NATO + Ukraine too but I wish they would allow us to strike Russia directly even with NATO equipment.
Since it seems to be overwhelmed currently, I'd suggest letting users host their own version of this in their own networks.
If it ain’t broke don’t fix it
Haskell Programming from First Principles is probably the best and most exhaustive resource on learning Haskell.

I now refer people to “Effective Haskell” by Rebecca Skinner[0]. It’s well written, modern (published in 2023) and goes into everything you need to know to use haskell in common, real world tasks.

It's not flagged, it's dead. Their comments and submissions are all auto-killed. My guess is it's because their account had one comment in 2015, no activity until 2022, and then a submission. Everything from that submission in February 2022 on is dead (not [flagged][dead], just [dead]).

Windows 3.1 did not save Southwest, not using CrowdStrike saved Southwest.
On the other hand, diseases vaccines prevent dont have almost instantaneous propagation, thats why they are effective at containing propagation.

As an example, reaction time is paramount to counter many kinds of attacks - thats why blocklists are so popular, and AS blackholing is a viable option.
>Sounds like bad ram (clean contacts, re-seat, and test)

Since he's taking about iGPU issues, he most likely has a laptop APU, so no RAM to reseat. I'm also having similar issues on my Ryzen 7000 laptop. Kinda regret upgrading from the Ryzen 5000 laptop which AMD obsoleted just 2 years after I bought it, as at least that had no issues. Hopefully new drivers in the future will fix stability but you never know.

What I do know, is that this will most likely be my last AMD machine if Intel shows improvement to match AMD, since their Linux driver support is just top notch.

This is not true.

Southwest is not running Windows 3.1.

"So, it would seem that one shitpost led some journalists to breathlessly google for corroborating sources, and "Southwest builds its crew scheduling apps in-house, and they look like shit, like they're from the Windows 95 era" morphed into "Southwest runs everything on Windows 3.1".

Maybe I've missed some actual evidence for these claims, I dunno. But every mention of Southwest and Windows 3.1 or Windows 95 eventually lead back to this lineage of 3 articles misquoting each other."

I tried to leave a comment on the original article, but tomshardware.com prevents my comment from being "spamlike", even though it has no spam. If anyone has a functional forum account there, please post a correction.

It's frankly embarrassing that Toms Hardware posted this with no evidence whatsoever, and is banning comments trying to correct it.

I modded my fridge... I went armed with an Arduino... And when I got to the fridge main control board I found it was already an Arduino! Or at least it was an atmel 168p running the Arduino bootloader with the distinctive 1 second startup delay.

It is a US style fridge freezer, but made in Turkey for the EU market. 1 compressor, 2 fans, 1 defrost heater, 1 door edge heater, 2 door switches, 1 light, 4 temperature sensors, an LCD screen, 2 status LED's, buzzer and a button.

Alas - I couldn't be bothered to reimplement all the fridge functionality or disassemble the assembly code, and I realised the mod I wanted (disable the door edge heater) could be achieved by simply unplugging the wire.
I'm totally willing to believe they're experiencing a broad range of hardware and software issues :)

On a loosely related note, presence of a computer with Python may inflict similar damage with regards to problem solving and analytical skills.
School buildings with operable windows often don't condition the air. This design collects / guides air from around the pupils towards an exhaust window and suggests leaving a door or opposite site window to get fresh air in. It's not a solution for highly conditioned spaces.
I believe this was what caused sudden system instabilities on my 13600kf. I even undervolted my chip (lite load 1) when I got it, things ran fine for years until just a few weeks ago when I started hard freezing. I ended up disabling XMP which "fixed" it.

I was going to say the same in less kind words. I am sick of seeing the media, even allegedly informed people like IT admins, devs, the tech media, are all trying to change the news in real time to fit whatever agenda they have.

The number of times I've already explained to people online and in person that this is not the fault of Microsoft, Windows, etc.

It's this blatant disregard for reality that makes me tired of the internet. The next dumb lie they try meme into existence, I'll just not use the internet for a week.

What the fuck? You can operate modern systems without shitty EDR software no problem. This article isn't very good.

If they're already running Windows 3.1, I can't imagine anything is going to compel them (e.g. cyber insurance premiums) to upgrade anyways.

What is it about Jira that you think engineers hate?

I personally don't like how a ticket can only be associated with ("assigned to") one person; and how clumsy it is to split a ticket into small pieces within a sprint. I don't like how there isn't a clean separation between the concept of a product backlog item and a sprint backlog item. I heard the "control chart" is massively misleading as well (though I've never used it myself). It's meh, but tolerable for me; not something hateful.

Enough ordnance lying around for them and their army and menfolk to have fought if they wanted to. At some point we have to say enough is enough. Thousands of American lives, trillions of American dollars, and 20 years ought to have been enough. If not, then it's just not a job that is reasonably accomplishable by a foreign state. I wish them all the best in building a free society for themselves over the next decades, but they'll have to do it without American boots on the ground.

Maybe its China's turn to try to conquer the graveyard of empires.

A corporate push for Windows 7 Forever might be in order. Windows 7 was Microsoft's best OS. Most of the bugs had been fixed by then, and reliability was good. No subscriptions, no ads, and updating was optional.

There's almost nothing since then that's really needed in a business.
Having put together an i7-12900k rig on a z690 six months ago, two observations -

* DDR5 is wildly different from previous generations in being much less stable with more DIMMs, due to timing synchronization sensitivity. With four 6000 sticks I just flat out can't get more than a 12 hour stable prime95, even at jedec-4800 certified speeds. I can't even boot at 6000. My first few months were plagued with random crashes minutes into loading a game.

* There is a consensus that we're operating at & beyond the limit of this consumer ATX platform's TDP. There are recognized limitations in the motherboard retention mechanism that has prompted the use of aftermarket shims. Only the very top of the line largest air heatsinks are practical, and even then you spend much of the time thermally limited. Daring people regularly prove that the heatspreader is a limiting factor by going back to bare die cooling and getting five or ten degrees of advantage.

Because of the temp throttling becoming a normal state rather than an emergency protection, better cooling translates directly into higher performance.

Intel 13th gen and 14th gen were supposedly very similar, with slight thermal improvements from the process node.
This is a great up to date course to get you started:

That is because nobody donates to the party anymore. They donate to the candidate.

I see, thanks for the info! Interesting that Poland managed to get off the authoritarian track as you said, when they're so geographically close to being embroiled in war again. I'd think that would lead people to lean toward that kind of "follow the strong leader to get us through war" thinking, but obviously I'm glad it doesn't.
Because he's not targeting the west, he's targeting semi-literate part of Russian population. He isn't giving statements like that on CNN, he's giving statements like that on TV programs that no educated person watches.

He's there to blow things out of proportion locally, he just happens to be translated from time to time for clicks. There's no significance to his words. He doesn't speak on behalf of Putin, he's not there to leak some super-secret internal plans for the future, he's just there to yap about how Russia can totally take over the entire Europe.

Depends what was in the phone call! If he said "I'm going to drone you and everyone in your cabinet and all of your family" that would probably have done it, coming from the one person on earth who can credibly make that threat.

Biden's aides could probably come up with a more nuanced and more statesmanlike but equally effective threat than that, of course. Any US president would have great leverage to threaten an Israeli PM personally or politically, or threaten changes to US foreign policy that would work badly for Israel.
So what, at least he doesn't go completely off-prompt with utterly random unrelated bullshit every minute like your average Trump speech.

The doublespeak from the Republican side regarding Biden's capabilities has been, frankly, astonishing.
If neither is scalable, what would be the ideal solution? What more context would you need?
> These systems do not receive upgrades, so the company is sure it won’t ever receive one and cause an unexpected crash that could disrupt operations. After all, as the saying goes, “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it.”

This is horrible logic. Just because a system doesn't receive upgrades doesn't make it secure or reliable. In fact, the opposite is much more likely true.
I think the reporting is a bit confusing here.

Yandex was a dutch publicly traded company. Yandex name and search engine has been sold to Russian investors and will move to Russia.

The Dutch company will remain and will focus on AI instead and rename to Nebius group.

So Yandex the (the search engine) enters the country. Not exits.
Sounds very military… and yet I see no mention of a suite of remotely-armable tamper sensors built into the hardware, that would enable automatic scorched-earth wiping of sensitive data if their guys manage to shoot your guys and march into your DC.

(Or more importantly, if this thing is just sitting there in a remote unmanned outpost, and their guys find it. If you have no humans to implement a scorched-earth policy, the infra needs to be capable of doing it itself.)

I find this especially strange, as tamper-responsiveness is usually a headline feature following the words “mil-spec ruggedized server.” (See e.g. this thing: https://privatemachines.com/)
out of all the metaphors the author could've used. why not just go with a gardening example? friendships grow like trees, they need tending and they grow stronger with age.

especially because we're all familiar with friendships that turn out to be purely transactional relationships like with drinking buddies which fizzle out as soon as the activity itself is no longer welcoming. treating friendships literally as investments encourages surface level transactional relationships, which is the opposite of what you'd want to be happy!
