In the IBM, HP days it wasn’t about paying less per se by threatening to switch providers, it was getting more concessions (of which money might be one). Some big companies had both systems so they could play them off of each other. Time to order more hardware, who will kiss our butts more?

I’d be very surprised if that doesn’t still exist for the big boys. Though most of us are not big boys, and half of the biggest boys are cloud providers themselves.
I think it is important to also note the increase in pedestrians in general. Assuming bicycalists and scooterists (?) are considered pedestrians, there has been a big increase in there usage primarily due to lithium batteries becoming more efficient. It is understandable that there will be an increase in events involving pedestrians. Have not saying I know the answer to reducing pedestrian fatalities but the article I think failed to place the fatalities in context of the increase in scooters and bikes by people.

Show HN: Generate Personalized Spotify Playlist Based on Your Mood
I'm in Germany, and running my custom opnsense router with adblocker DNS connected to one of the big DoH providers. Never had any issues, not even with using plain old DNS in port 53.

Vodafone Kable, so YMMV.

Always a bit scared to switch providers of course, you never know if you get cgnat and blocked DNS servers. They are building a Deutsche Telekom fiber to our street this summer. It's tempting for the 200 Mbps uplink, But I have no idea is it then CGNAT and do they even provide real IPv6. It's never mentioned in the advertisement.
The CPU has hardware that does a page table walk automatically when you access an address for which the translation is not cached in the TLB. Otherwise virtual memory would be really slow.

Since the CPU hardware itself is doing the page table walk it needs to understand page tables and page table entries etc. including how big pages are.

Also you need to know how big pages are for the TLB itself.

The value of 4kB itself is pretty much arbitrary. It has to be a small enough number that you don't waste a load of memory by mapping memory that isn't used (e.g. if you ask for 4.01kB you're actually going to get 8kB), but a large enough number that you aren't spending all your time managing tiny pages.

That's why increasing the page size makes things faster but waste more memory.

4kB arguably isn't optimal anymore since we have way more memory now than when it was de facto standardised so it doesn't matter as much if we waste a bit. Maybe.
The manual is also available as a 150gsm brick if you're into that kind of thing.

If we can't point something out even if it's true then the rules are bad and we have an obligation to disregard them.
It would enable geographically distributed training of large neural networks. 1Tbps internode bandwidth is roughly what’s required in modern GPU clusters.
Only on Android, for what it's worth; most "vanilla" Linux aarch64 linkers chose 64K defaults several years ago. But yes, most Android applications with native (NDK) binaries will need to be rebuilt with the new 16kb max-page-size.
And what if it is the same person in both instances?

Perhaps we will find out if Mother Nature shares your sense of humour.

If I'm reading these, he got his notice from Google (changing device settings without user consent).

They don't have time to go around with folks - you get I think one human look at things (maybe). If they've removed an app (rather than rejecting it or suspending it) then you absolutely need to figure out why and fix things before appealing or republishing?

They are explicit about that. Do not republish an app with a policy violation I think.

I think if folks slowed down the appeals and actually fixed things first they'd have better outcomes.
The main differences between banks and credit unions are that banks are for-profit institutions owned by shareholders, while credit unions are not-for-profit organizations owned by their member account holders. Credit unions typically have lower fees, higher interest rates on savings, and a focus on serving their members' financial needs, rather than maximizing profits like banks. Credit unions also have membership requirements, while banks are open to the general public. Lastly, banks are regulated by federal and state banking authorities, while credit unions are regulated by the National Credit Union Administration.
Thank you for your response. While permissions sound like they can cover a lot of cases let's say I want to moderate with a list of banned words that are defined in a JSON or fetched from a service.

Ideally I would like exactly what you provide but be able to insert arbitrary server-side code that is run before the change is committed to the database.

I remember having the same "problem" with Firebase back in the day and ended up having to use a Cloud Function that listened on changes and updated records, but it was not a nice experience.
> Install the Phoenix wallet

That's trusting a third party.

> get a hardware wallet like Ledger

Again, trusting a third party, and one which had a data breach less than a year ago:

https://www.ledger.com/blog/security-incident-report

And even if you want to discount that, you still have the risk of physically losing the wallet or having it stolen.

> If, by hiring someone, you mean using a custodian like Kraken,

Yes, that's what I mean.

> then you're still solving a problem by not dealing with the traditional banking system.

And, like I said, replacing it with a different problem, of dealing with and trusting a crypto custodian.

> Is everyone supposed to have a personal contact from within a small bank?

In a perfect world, yes. In this world, anyone running a business should have at least one such contact.

> The closest compromise might be to work with credit unions instead of banks.

Yes, that's also a good solution, much better than crypto IMHO.

Why remove the Greek queez instead of just adding the ship parts quiz? I guess I understand the obscurity argument (although as a classicist it makes me sad), but there's still a Latin quiz there. Hell there's even an Inca quiz. How does that meet the obscurity bar but not Greek?
According to a few (related) mystical schools of thought (that share a boundary with Jungian psychology) there is a distinction to be made between mind and intellect. The former, the mind, is held to be effectively a super-sense and its content and preoccupations naturally (as with the elemental senses) are bound firmly to the body. The intellect however is seen as the realm of knowledge whose domain extends to the transcendent.

While our intuition is indeed informed by experience it should be understood that speculative meditations (should one care not to believe in inspiration "from above") can enrich mental content and provide structural elements for conceptualization that transcends ordinary perception.

So the intellect is indeed superior to mentation. And for many of us this distinction is informative of our belief in the incompleteness of our self-perception.[..]

I've been trying to use auditing rules for a usage that seems completely in scope and obvious to prioritize from a security point of view (tracing access to EFS files and/or the keys allowing the access) and my conclusion was that you basically can't, the doc is garbage, the implementation is probably ad-hoc with lots of holes, and MS probably hasn't prioritised the maintenance of this feature since several decades (too busy adding ads in the start menu I guess)

The NT security descriptors are also so complex they are probably a little useless in practice too, because it's too hard to use correctly. On top of that the associated Win32 API is also too hard to use correctly to the point that I found an important bug in the usage model described in MSDN, meaning that the doc writer did not know how the function actually work (in tons of cases you probably don't hit this case, but if you start digging in all internal and external users, who knows what you could find...)

NT was full of good ideas but the execution is often quite poor.

I'm fine with Firefox finding ways to compete with Chrome. For me, its survival depends upon it. And with its survival, we get all sort of forks (tor browser, librewolf, and so on) for niche users like HN readers commenting here and myself (Yes, privacy is niche.

I need to find a project that lets me leverage moonglow.

I hope they got the name MoonGlow from Ultima:

>Moonglow

>>Moonglow is a city dedicated to magic and mystical arts, found on the island of Verity. The principle area of the city is fenced and gated, surrounding a maze from which teleporters connect to the more outlying shops and facilities. One of these, the Encyclopedia Magicka, contains a magical pentagram, which proves to be a further teleporter. Saying, or more discretely whispering, the password ‘Recdu’ while standing on this will transport you to the Lost lands, to a second pentagram in the town of Papua. The city’s tinkers have no dedicated shop, instead they can be found in the city’s bank.

Seems appropriate for this project...

even has a theme song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XMRlwVmetcc
Then that company's threshold for "sensible monthly cost" would be a lot higher. 500k? 1m? Give them the option to set something.
If there is a class of people who get steered to your service by a small number of organizations, you might. Universities, trade schools, a podcaster you’re sponsoring.

You can’t scale to individualized service for $50 per month/quarter/year users, that’s true. But you can shape policy for a demographic with… shall we call it flocking behavior, for lack of a better term?
probably not a good idea for your government to know their each citizen what kind of websites uses. However there are similar idea currently in some crypto projects that trying to solve it to make it distributed, so that if you e.g. like gambling the government won't know about it but website that provide gambling services can still check that you are from non banned countries and adult without any more detailed KYC
Yep, and probably back when I was on Usenet.
I believe epub is just a zip archive of html. Could you extract the files and then use a html validator which would cleanup the presumably broken markup?

My initial attempt would be to use pandoc to roundtrip the files.
Ideally it will force us to give up on the flawed notion that is trust. Perhaps you can excuse primitive societies for adopting it, but surely we can do better?
Because I already have a kubernetes cluster with distributed storage. This way makes it somewhat standard with the rest of my setup. In SRE things the real enemy is when parts are unique in ways that conflict with the normal way of doing things. Look up at the "unique/standard" comment above and then take a moment to think about it. It sounds absurd from the first read; but when you realize that it allows me to reuse the hardware I have and take advantage of the second order properties I've done, then it makes more sense.

No worries. I was working at PythonLabs at the time, so I guess you could say that adding Easter eggs to Python was part of my day job.
They are bad at telling people what the problem is and the behaviour they complain about is very reasonable. Google's own YouTube app, for example, does exactly this - it prevents the screen from timing out and sleeping.

> If you could time-travel back to the 80s and 90s, plenty of folks would have scoffed that anyone would ever "need" a computer, let alone a computer in their pocket.

Is that true? I feel like people have imagined portable communication / computing devices forever[1]. People maybe couldn't imagine that they could ever be small enough to be practical, but the utility of such a device was pretty obvious. Similarly, I think "VR" as a concept has obvious value and applications. However current implementations fall far short of what is necessary to unlock that value for most people / scenarios.

Seems unlikely. xz is not a dependency of OpenSSH.

It's only a transitive dependency of sshd on Linux distributions that patch OpenSSH to include libsystemd which depends on xz.

It's wholy unreasonable to expect OpenSSH maintainers to vet contributors of transitive dependencies added by distribution patches that the OpenSSH maintainers clearly don't support.

On the one hand, it's surprising that none of the people involved in creating, publishing, and marketing this trailer raised an eyebrow. I don't know much about film history but I raised an eyebrow. And presumably, it took MANY people to make this trailer happen, and a good chunk went to film school or otherwise know enough to know that this was fishy.

On the other hand, things like this likely get caught during production all the time and we just never hear about them.

> Yes officer, this neerdowell right here.
Most of the madness that you're describing there isn't inherent in the JavaScript ecosystem, it's more to do with undisciplined development practices that might be more likely to be enabled by JavaScript's flexibility but are by no means required in order to participate.

Don't use libraries that aren't stable. Aggressively trim dependencies. Lock versions and upgrade intentionally. Ideally, use a company registry to cache what you actually want to be using.

Every ecosystem has its problems, and JS+NPM's are largely that it's too good at making everything too easy, leading to an abundance of naive developers building in a naive way.

On the whole I'll take that over the unnecessary barriers in other ecosystems (don't get me started on pip...), but it definitely requires some discipline to navigate safely.
What it could cause a big change is a drop in latency, more than of bandwidth. But for some world regions the light speed would be a limiter anyway.

Another game changer it would be internet (with good enough bandwith/latency) everywhere. Scratch that, Starlink is doing pretty much that, or at least have the potential to do it soon enough.

The key disruptor is near to free to get and to use it somewhat, and what kind of ubiquitous devices with that universal internet access would imply to change everything. GPS is a good example of that kind of impact, without the internet part.
Clicking on “Features” takes me to a login page. Consider making that public.
Not really. You can't buy it, and it doesn't work online without community support.
No, this is insufficient. Unskilled users will listen to people they shouldn’t and will jump through the hoops when instructed appropriately by those who wish to deceive or surveil them.

I was a Mac user for about six years, went back to Windows through necessity, and returned to Mac four years ago. I don't hate the new Mac System Settings, but for me it's not as intuitive as the old version. Nor is the iPhone/iPad settings app easy to navigate. I don't completely understand the reasoning for the order or grouping of things. Then I realize I have no control over it, shrug my shoulders, and get on with finding and using the options I want.
If we were in a simulation, due to the hard problem, it would be impossible for the simulators to know whether anything in their simulation had qualitative experiences, so they could not make conscious observation a prerequisite of detail rendering, only interaction. No woo necessary.

I couldn't fix anything because, even though their mail said "send a new compliant version for revision", I was not allowed to send any new version because the app got deleted. So I thought what they meant is to send a new version in a new app, since the current app was not available anymore.
> The molecule, DDL-920, works differently from recent FDA-approved drugs for Alzheimer’s disease such as lecanemab and aducanumab, which remove harmful plaque that accumulates in the brains of Alzheimer’s disease patients. While removing this plaque has been shown to slow the rate of cognitive decline, it does not restore the memory or remedy cognitive impairments.

Thankful researchers are exploring some new approaches now. The amyloid hypothesis was fine, but its dominance seems to have set Alzheimer's research back by years.
Samsung SSD still reports to the system that their logical sector size is 512 bytes. In fact one of the recent models even removed the option to reconfigure the disk to use 4k logical sectors. Presumably Samsung has figured that since the physical sector is much larger and they need complex mapping of logic sectors in any case, they decided not to support 4K option and stick with 512 bytes.
FSFilters are basically a custom kernel module that can and will do anything they want on any filesystem access. (There's also network filters, which is how things like WinPcap get implemented.)

So yes, you could implement something similar in Linux, but there's not, last I looked, a prebuilt toolkit and infrastructure for them, just the generic interfaces you can use to hook anything.

(Compare the difference between writing a BPF module to hook all FS operations, and the limitations of eBPF, to having an InterceptFSCalls struct that you define in your custom kernel module to run your own arbitrary code on every access.)
Lung cancer vaccine trial begins in UK
Yeah, I agree! We looked into integrating Moonglow with academic clusters, because many of my ML PhD friends complained about using them. We unfortunately haven't found a good generalized solution, so I think VSCode's remote SSH + manual server management is probably the best option for now.
I would choose such device only if 100% availability comes along with the high bandwidth and low latency.
Sure but the alternative we are talking about here is encouraging developers to paste their API keys into random web pages.

I don’t think we should accept the argument that since implementing a respectable authorization scheme might take a bit of effort, it’s okay for sites to ask users to just hand over their password.
How can he be sure he's a theoretical physicist if he doesn't know reality exists at all?

The truth is, instead of reality, he would be better off questioning theoretical physics, which indeed does not exist outside the heads of academia.

His "questioning of reality" only happens philosophically (in other words, it is an academic farce), once he gets up to do some grocery shopping he sure knows what to buy so he can eat in order to survive. There is your objective reality.

Humans understand reality if they do not bury their heads in the sand. But academia can get in the way.

Oddly enough, I was recently thinking of using RFC 822 messages with CommonMark bodies and MIME attachments as a way to store blog entries on disk, so I was considering this exact problem earlier this week (small world!). RFC 2046 specifies multipart messages, RFC 2392 specifies URI schemes for linking from the body of the message to other parts; and RFC 7763 specifies the text/markdown MIME type. There’s already a ton of tooling out there which deals with MIME, so one needn’t reinvent the wheel.
It sounds like a dumb idea from the get go. Even if the quotes were authentic, "They hated my previous work too" is a crummy gimmick.

Coppola doesn't need a gimmick. He's famous and the film will sell some tickets just on his name. If the film sucks then it sucks. Don't make him look desperate in the process.
