Original ETCS communication was unencrypted, but at least is already cryptographically authenticated between train and infrastructure. (Though since the authentication is based on 3DES, it's no longer entirely bullet-proof.)

AFAIK however, the new ETCS baseline 4 has introduced specifications in preparation for a) switching away from GPRS to 5G-based communications (FRMCS) and b) introducing TLS-based encryption.

In the USA if you collect SSI and or SNAP you can get prime for a discount AND I've noticed their process is less annoying/deceptive
Part of my internet hygiene is to close my Amazon account every year, and sign up again under different details (those that make sense). Around five years ago back there was a spate of articles about Amazon's 'surprisingly' bad security. Maybe they have improved lately, but I'd just as soon not have years of data stored under one live Amazon account.

As for 'Prime', I assume it is a bad deal, solely based on how desperately Amazon pushes it. If a company like Amazon is this ridiculously aggressive for me to do something, there's no way I'm getting the long end of the stick.
I like this attitude, and I wish there was more of it.

We should not grow fear to take on challenges, but support and cheer on those who go head on even if it is the most steepest climb.

Most attempts will end in failure but that is fine, it is not the end of the world. Get back up, brush off the dust, enjoy the experience and knowledge you gained from it then get going again.
Macintosh Type/Creator Codes: Improving Id of Files from macOS Classic
Pffft. X is by far the most important social network for people and things that matter. So not your vacation photos on Facebook or some influencer posting semi-nude pics on Instagram. It has only gotten better since Musk made moderation neutral, as opposed to the previous absurdly one-sided suppression of anything that deviates even slightly from ultra-left Liberal Silicon Valley ideology.
It may surprise you to learn that these obvious ideas are older than you think. Wikipedia it.

In fact, one of the main errors in Karl Marx’s theories from the mid-1800s was the belief that
markets were perfectly efficient. He thought profits in a market economy would inevitably fall to 0.

It turns out humans constantly want new and different stuff, in unpredictable fashion, and therefore this never happens.
If she continues to use Amazon it’s probably in her best interest to be a prime member. No point in cancelling if you continued to constantly use Amazon.

EVM+PoW = Digital Gratitude
I struggled to understand a proper use case for EVM CREATE2 opcode, so I created the little project "Amore". I created it to show some gratitude to my beloved ones, by solving the puzzle of finding an EVM address (by CREATE2, of course) that ends in specific characters, say a name, and putting a gratitude message in that address.
Let me know if you find it interesting, and I may put some time on adding a minimal UI for it.

As a "african" myself, living and working in africa for the last 46 years, and speaking 4 different african languages. I am struggling to understand what "problem" this is trying to solve? It's never been an issue to type in an "african" language. And what is meant by "african" There is a big difference between for example zulu from south africa and arabic in morocco. And then we are not even touching on the thousands of languages in between that in the rest of africa.
When you specialize in one thing only, do what you want.

But I prefer tools, that I can use wherever I go. To not be dependant and chained to that environment.

"Do you know how your stove works? Or do you truly understand what the device you're typing this comment on truly works?"

Also yes, I do.

" people deliberately avoid useful tools because <some fringe edge case that comes up once in a millenium in their daily work>"

Well, or I did already changed tools often enough, to be fed up with it and rather invest in tech that does not loose its value in the next iteration of the innovation cycle.
Solar can even help regain space, since it can be put on roofs and replace 30 times more space-inefficient Biogas electricity production.

Further solar plants can be combined with efforts to give nature back some space, since solar farms produce energy without agricultural use of the land, perhaps even the use of pesticides and other poisons.

You don't even have to mowe really, since the modules are usually further in the air than natural grass.

Though you probably have to prevent trees and bushes to grow in areas which used to be forest (hundreds of years ago before humans made farmland out of everything)
That must be the perfect result. I also got 174 but it said "For you,

I use Amazon at a rate slightly under break even for prime. I don't have it because I want the extra friction to get fast shipping. If I had it, I'd use it more. Now it's just one of many places to shop online (one with low quality control).
That’s right, not everyone uses an LSP. Nothing wrong with LSPs, very useful tools. I use ripgrep, or plain grep if I have to, far more often than an LSP.

But the market only has access to public companies. It wouldn't know about anything non-public, would it? And when a company went public, in a perfectly efficient market all the share prices would instantly rebalance to take that new company into account.

If an employee can do two jobs at once

nobody can work 16 hours a day and be focused all the time. heck, most people can't even do 8 hours of focused work. i am not paying you to sit on a chair, but to actually pay attention. if you do two full time jobs, you are not doing the work at the required focus.

sure, there may be jobs where that doesn't matter, and there are jobs that are paid full time but aren't actually full time jobs. like a sysadmin in a small company, where our boss told him that his job was to keep the servers running. if he has nothing to do he is welcome to goof off. and in such a job he could also have used the free time to do side jobs, or a second job.

but for most jobs it does matter that you are focused working for the whole time, and if i find out that an employee is doing a second full time job then i will be very much concerned at that persons effectiveness.

I am rather emotional because such comments assume that people in cybersecurity are a bunch of idiots who have no idea about how to do their job. But thank you for showing us the path.

But in my experience, this is exactly the case. I've successfully elevated myself from <nothing> to <global super admin>, in two very large compagny. First one, I got anonymous AWS super admin access. Second one (where I'm still at), I got admin AD access (again, anonymous), as well as git admin, access to all k8s and admin azure (all subs).

From there, and considering that the security people were shocked, what should be the conclusion ?

Most importantly : considering that security people, once informed of the details, did nothing about it, how on earth should I respect such clowns ?

Learnwise.ai | Junior-Mid AI/ML/Backend Engineer (fulltime) | REMOTE (~EU timezone if freelance contract OR Spain/NL for employee contract) | 2-4.5k EUR/month

We build an LLM-based conversational assistant deeply integrated in the Edtech ecosystem. We aim to relieve teachers and admin workers of tedious "easy" questions so they can focus on what's important. Moving towards knowledge management and course support.

Early startup, small, tightly knit team (5 engineers, 2 implementation/process-focused folks, 1 sales guy, 1 marketing gal, 1 chill product-centered CEO). We're slowly scaling and expanding.

Stack (not crucial but you should at least be proficient in python):

- FastAPI python backend - MongoDB - Langsmith (llm evals/observability) - - Next.js (react) frontend - AWS

We're a startup. We need a generalist/"get things done" mentality, and sufficient drive/curiosity to figure things out (and build them/fix them) on your own - we don't micromanage.

About the position: you'd start off supporting me with developing the AI aspects of the product - for now, mainly the conversational interface. This isn't a purely ML position; for now lots of the work is SWE/back-end dev. Projects on the roadmap: building robust testing and observability for LLM performance, experimenting with and improving the RAG pipeline, fine-tuning/distillation where relevant to reduce latency/costs, working on a voice interface.

Experience requirements: ~masters level education in relevant field (doesn't have to be a masters/formal education, but you need to convince us you have an equivalent level of experience/understanding) & 1y of full-time relevant work experience (can be as student job)

WE'RE UNFORTUNATELY UNABLE TO SPONSOR VISAS.

This is an interesting read and it is truthful.

I understand frustrations with GNOME. Since GNOME 3/Shell (when was that released... 2011?) came out it was met with a lot of controversy. I remember people sticking with GNOME2. There was also a GNOME legacy or something... where you can use GNOME3 but kept a lot of the familiarities to GNOME2. I think Plasma/KDE was having its own share of issues at the time, but were different issue.

For me, I don't mind GNOME3 but I may not be using it to the level many do. I am in Emacs most of the time.

When GNOME3 was in the distros, I didn't mind it. I understood what they were trying to do, a balance of an environment that could be used for PCs, Tablets, Phones, etc. Back in 2012 I think the assumption, since the rise of smart phones, that our future would be the slow death of desktop/latop PCs. Today, that future does not seem close. Its not like desktops/laptops have been replaced with phones (or PDA) that you use to clock in/out and plug into your monitors to do work. While I think that future will happen, it wont be for some time.

Microsoft went this route with Windows 8 and it failed! They soon reverted back to their "typical" theme for Windows 10.

GNOME, on the other hand, seem to be all-in on this approach. I am sure it is getting "better" (I have not used the latest GNOME releases) I would not be surprised there is still a lot of gripes people have - and this read seems to be good evidence for it.

Maybe I am just a bit too optimistic to the GNOME team... or, maybe I just need to see doctor for my head injury. :-)

As relationships persist, the information content on the channels of said relationships diminishes in exchange for information efficiency. The channel becomes the omnipresent information. With a budget on information consumption, as the balance of persisted channels increases, the total actual information content circulated diminishes and replaced by "heartbeat" messages in established channels. The efficient society prunes relationships by means of time and circumstances to optimise information exchange. How Zuckerberg's innovation affected the efficiency of society is up for grabs.

Generalist here. It might be hard to find a fit but if there is one it will probably work out great for you.

My skills are at the intersection of data-science and sales/growth. I've spent a part of my career in sales (finance), then transitioned to content marketing and after that I worked with data-science where I mostly worked with Python and data-science and some AI/ML and a lot of data scraping, collection and enrichment. I've used that to build unique content, automate sales and add scale and personalization to marketing growth.

I'm probably not the best in writing code, but because I work at the intersection of multiple disciplines I was always able to use code in creative ways as a leverage which is what I perceive it to be.

Worked with some big brands and startups.

I've started a couple of small businesses too that are still around and doing well, have experience scaling from 0 to 6-7 fig revenue. Got degree in law, play chess, and practice MMA, BJJ and passion for nutrition and workout.

I'm in the process of discovering new directions for my career rn.
I am unable to answer many of them. I see mostly turquoise, not blue or green.
Thank you for re-validating the numbers on your end, it's indeed very possible. There's been quite a few improvements in those versions. Though the effect size does not quite fit with most of the optimizations I can recall, maybe it's much more related to optimizations to the standard library's size and linking behavior.

With regards to standard use, for many users the scenario is definitely not common. I'd rather rustc be an effective screw driver and a separate hammer be built than try to mangle both into the same tool. By that I mean, it's very clear which portion of the compiler must be repurposed here. The hard question is whether the architecture is amenable to alternative linker backends that serve your use-case. I'm afraid I can't answer that conclusively. Only so much, the conceptual conflict of Rust is that linkining is a very memory-safety critical part of the process. And with its compilation module model it relinks everything into the resulting binary / library which includes a large std and dependency tree even if much of this is removed by the step. Maybe that can be changed; and relying a tool whose interface was ultimately designed with C in mind is also far from optimal to compute those outputs and inputs. It's hard to say how much of it stems from compatibility concerns and compatibility overheads and how much is fundamental to the language's design which could be shed for a pure build process.

With regards to C++, I suspect it's rooted in the fact that parsing it requires in principle the implementation of a complete consteval engine. The language has a dependency loop between parsing and codegen. This of course, is not how data should be laid out for executing fast programs on it. It's quite concerning given the specifications still contains the bold faced lie that "The disambiguation is purely syntactic" (6.8; 1) for typenames vs non-typenames to parse constructors from declarations which at the present can require arbitrary template specialization. It might be interesting to see if those two headers in your example already execute some of these dependency loops but it's hard for me to think of an experiment to validate any of this. Maybe you have ideas, is there something like time-passes?
Are you talking about the end products or about the process of creating them? The GP talks about the craft of the woodworker, not about the furniture. Me as a customer don't really care how the knife was made, as long it's a good looking sharp and sturdy knife. Same way, the customer of the AI produced software again will only care whether the software addresses their needs and has good UX. And I fully believe AI tools will give that, rather sooner than later, even if with human help.
