Completely agree. The kind of people I've encountered in non-profits and charities as an IT Sales Professional over 20 years is that they expect great products and services should be as close to free as possible. They don't seem to understand that the tax breaks and incentives are there precisely to help soften the costs of running such an organisation. To expect even MORE than that from vendors is unrealistic. I watched an interview with Naveen Jain (Viome CEO) on a podcast once and he said that a non-profit entrepreneur or CEO is more often than not "just a sh*tty entrepreneur". I couldn't agree more based on my experience selling tech since 2001!
It has been speculated that its history may go back to Pharaonic Egypt.

The apparent "impractically" of the armor is one of the very reasons it's being tested. I think the apparent reduction in visibility is probably being exaggerated in some of the pictures that they've chosen to use. In addition, since a lot of the fighting would be with spears, I'd assume there would often be enough distance that the high visor wouldn't obstruct too much relevant vision.

The question we should be asking isn't how easy is it to diagnose the X most common conditions. The question should be given someone goes to a doctor, what's the probability that their condition will be misdiagnosed. And further, what is the lifetime probability that someone will be misdiagnosed? Those numbers, I would wager, are significantly higher than the probability that anyone will be misdiagnosed with diabeetes, heart failure, obesity, arthritis, or hearing loss.

Note, however, I've left off depression. This one actually does get missed somewhat frequently by primary physicians, in part because they don't think to screen for it, or they don't screen for it at an initial visit. Primary specialists tend to look for physical conditions first before moving on to mental health conditions. Continuing with the article's theme about women being misdiagnosed frequently, here's an abstract that notes depression in female patients being misdiagnosed at a rate of 30-50%: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S02779....

So lets keep in mind that reliability of diagnosis of individual conditions, however common they may be, may have relatively little to do with the overall lifetime probability that someone will be misdiagnosed at some point in their life.

Edit: Some even more shocking mental health misdiagnosis statistics from https://justpoint.com/knowledge-base/everything-you-need-to-...

> Misdiagnosis rates for major depressive disorders were at 65.9%,
> Misdiagnosis for Bipolar disorders was at 92.7 percent,
Panic disorder was at 85.8%, generalized anxiety disorder was 71.0 percent, and
> Social anxiety disorder was 97.8%.

Given that 1 out of 2 people will develop a diagnosable mental health issue in their lifetime according to https://hms.harvard.edu/news/half-worlds-population-will-exp... this suggests a fairly high rate of overall misdiagnosis.

Do you have a better way of managing lambda's with IaC? Usually Terraform or its derivative is the best way in my experience, especially if you don't really have an IaC ecosystem using something like Crossplane instead.
Oh, I totally agree. But I’m in the minority in that view and have come to accept that it’s just the nature of the beast.

There's a "how it works" bit at https://orbstack.dev/blog/debug-shell

> In particular, mount namespaces are what Docker and runc use to give each container its own image and view of the filesystem. But unlike chroot(2), you can copy an existing mount namespace into a new one. Debug Shell uses this to copy a container's namespace, creating a new view where we can inject things without them showing up in the original mount namespace or filesystem.

> Are we unconscious when we sleep

I don't think that is the right question to ask. Sleeping person is unconscious almost by definition. They don't respond to stimuli and they don't do much of anything besides breathing and just laying there.

> do we merely lose the capacity to remember?

That is a better question. Some people remembers their dreams. Sometimes people can remember stimuli which happened while they were asleep. (For example it happened multiple times to me that noises happening around me where incorporated into my dreams in various forms.) So if sleeping were just amnesia then these dream memories would need to be explained somehow.
You made great point! I agree.

Interesting idea - although wouldn't it have been the government that could, and still can, bring down the corporate death penalty if annoyed?

I think even back then the kings were losing power to the governments that ruled in their name.

It's also interesting to note that some of Europe's colonizing was actually done by companies which had armies, and definitely killed at least some of their customers (whether you think the customers were the colonizers or the colonized).
It’s because the game ergonomics are questionable. You can only slide files sideways, not past other files. Your phone isn’t broken, not is the game engine. The game rules are.

Ask HN: Do you experience scroll issues in Google Chrome?
I am experiencing a weird scroll issue in Google Chrome where scroll downs are not properly registered after reaching the top of a scroll container and was wondering if this affects more users. I am able to reproduce this issue on multiple sites and even Spotify app on macOS which uses the chromium engine under the hood.

e.g. https://www.mintscan.io/dydx/proposals

1. place the cursor in the scroll container and try not to move it
2. scroll a bit down and then FAST up a few times until you reach the top
3. now try to scroll down slowly

The scroll down events in step 3 are often not registered and therefore no scroll is happening. Only after moving the cursor I am able to make Google Chrome accept the scroll down events again. I noticed this issue happens on child element scroll containers and probably not an issue on body.

Musk actually makes Hughes look... kinda stable, tbh. Hughes may have had interesting views on the correct sizes for peas, but he wasn't all that into trying to impose his Pea Views on everyone else.

I'm kind of baffled that the Trump team thought he'd be helpful, _especially_ given they already had Vance. Vance and Musk are broadly the same sort of weirdo; two seems superfluous, even if there was a case for one (there probably was not). Both, I think, come across as much more alienating than Trump himself to most people.

I thought the same thing reading this! I'm currently reading Prisoner's Dilemma by William Poundstone, which details the life of John von Neumann. According to his brother Nicholas, von Neumann likely got the idea to use punch cards for computers from the Jacquard loom. One of his father's (Maxwell von Neumann) clients at the turn of the century was a Jacquard loom manufacturer, and Max would evidently discuss his work with his kids everyday over supper.

Nothing beats the cable. It simply works. You don't need to worry about running out of battery, bluetooth disconnections or getting hurt in case a battery explodes (as was discussed in a thread about someone who if I recall correctly got their Bose headphones turning on fire). Wireless audio should always be a secondary thing. All devices should come with the beloved jack. Even if you purchase some respectable audio speakers or sound bars is very likely they come without it. Is really lame. But as the article mentions, these wireless headphones are designed to be purchased over and over again, hence the reason to put this technology everywhere. As someone else said it, would be awesome to have a regulation to force companies to always provide the headphone jack.
If I interpret the numbers correctly it is of the order of ~1000 times slower than modern algorithms such as Dragonbox.
What I'm disappointed by is that in the hundreds of years of capitalism, there has been little or no scientific research that looks at what structures create companies that have the desirable attributes we want. The fact that Paul Graham is now coining 'founder mode' without formulating any theory and approach to test what works (you would think VCs would be a group capable of doing this research) is disappointing.

The lack of any scientific rigor means we have founders floundering when building companies. For now we can just point to individual cases like Steve Jobs or Valve and have to guess why what they did worked. We are in the snake oil period of corporate governance.

“The rule goes something like this: A woman who is the aggrieved party in a relationship with a man is entitled to affirmation from other women. Women in this situation are considered categorically blameless, because women are categorically blamed for so much. There’s a cosmic score being settled: Women have been fucked over by men for so long that we should get full immunity in our domestic disputes.”

Huh, this is a succinct way of summarising a cultural thread that weaves through a lot of society’s problematic elements.
As the article states, studies have found (https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/people-with-havan...) no clear correlation of self-reported Havana syndrome with any physical indications. I vaguely recall an old article where they did some brain scans of Havana syndrome patients, and found “abnormalities”, but did not compare these scans against any sort of control group.

NPM’s original sin was making package installation and general management so painless that folks installed micro packages for everything. Can’t really fault the software for that.

The issue was, as you say, the introduction of ESM. It used to be that you required modules one way and one way only (yes there was AMD for advanced use cases, but it was an add-on), then people felt the need to “standardize” that, no we have this mess of ESM and CJS.

As an EU citizen I suggest a note: some EU countries have HIGH succession taxes, some have NONE. Those with high succession taxes historically have a much moving population than those who have none, historically, not anymore.

The world change and it's not taxes making people move, I think it was Churchill who say taxing is like putting feet in a bucket and trying lifting alone pulling the handle, that true. To have a dynamic economy we need an evolutionary mood. We need tech changes, and INDIVIDUAL ability to change.

In a world where few big actors own anything and all others essentially conform to their offer or die they can't be no mobility, the economy can't work for long.

I've moved because I've look for something else, in a world where anything is the same and from Tokyo to New York you see the same buildings, brands etc, why moving? In a world where anything is decided by giants why moving, I can't create anything or at least creating small things that work demand much effort for little results with a looming Damocles sword of some big who might want to erase or not my creation.

Without a middle class, rich enough to have margin to move autonomously experimenting, falling and still being afloat without having water up to the throat there is no dynamism. It's the very opposite of the current economic vision, people do not move effectively because they are forced by the economy, people move because they want. Forcing means just trying to replicate a phenomenon without having a clue about it's nature.

The ‘ability to learn’ idea may not be so novel, but I am not sure if I agree with calling it ill defined or it having an agenda for more inclusivity. Generally, in schools, at least from my experience, it will still mostly be abstract thinking and memory capacities that are measured. Curiosity, and the ability to turn that curiosity in new knowledge, also broadens the mind (in addition to abstract thinking and remembering things), which can be an enormous quality that is highly valued on the job market, arguably more than what is mostly measured at schools. I think that’s the point the author tries to make.
> Nothing beats the cable. It simply works

Except when it didn’t. The cables got tangled, caught, kinked and broken. Sure, the well-made ones didn’t threaten to detach from the buds. But well-made wireless headphones don’t suffer the problems you mention.

> would be awesome to have a regulation to force companies to always provide the headphone jack

Sorry, this is not a valid answer - you can checksum the boot device as much as you like, but I have not seen any procedure that ensures that you know the correct checksum. What could have helped you is not just a checksum, but a signature used with dm-verity.

What I do on my laptop is:

* BIOS password, of course. Note that this also prevents the attacker from resetting or turning off Secure Boot.

* Secure Boot enabled, with my keys only (no Microsoft keys).

* No GRUB, I use systemd-boot (part of systemd) and UKIs signed with my own key. Although, as I don't dual-boot, this might be an unneeded step. In any case, with Secure Boot enabled, systemd-boot does not allow editing kernel command line arguments at all and so cannot trick my UKI into doing anything else than what it is supposed to do.

* The main SSD partition is encrypted (with the passphrase that I have to type).

* The USB storage driver is not in the initramfs, so the storage device found by the initramfs is guaranteed to be my internal SSD.

* The Secure Boot keys are stored inside that encrypted partition and are used to dynamically sign new sd-boot releases and UKIs. I guarantee that I don't sign anything except UKIs that ask for my SSD password, and any shell-out possibility is treated as a bug.

* There is a separate set of keys for signing the custom rescue media, which is also a big UKI.

This way, the attacker cannot boot anything other than my UKI (first, because of the BIOS password, and second, because Secure Boot won't allow anything else), cannot obtain a shell by running something before I enter the password, and, therefore, cannot clone or overwrite my disk.

Note that this setup has also been criticized as insecure ("you don't use TPM, so you can't be secure, it's a theorem"), but I don't understand this argument.

As for the hardware keyloggers, you are, of course, right.

The article could be more precise: when I read that in 1999 nVidia unveils de GeForce, I remember that nVidia also unveils the RIVA TNT [1] in 1998, the RIVA 128 in 1997, and NV1 in 1995. And before that there were SGI chips that were not called GPUs at the moment, if my memory doesn't fail.

I think Unity just publicly figured out what has always been the case - there is no market for a game engine targeted to developers that want to make PC games. They all have no money, don't want to pay license fees, and are rarely successful enough to pay their success forward back to Unity.

However for realtime applications other than "standalone games", Unity has absolute (and growing) dominance outside of where Unreal is carving out a niche (Film/TV). Automotive, simulation, robotics, etc. are all leading Unity adoption.

If you're (royal "You") the type of dev that wants to make games for Steam, Godot is definitely leaning more in that direction these days than Unity, but I think Unity isn't seeing anything really "bad" coming out of that besides lack of good PR in places where game developers post screenshots/etc.
