> I have primary account (linked in my profile about) to my real name and thought it would be cool to have my open source project as account name on LinkedIn. And if I recall, I've seen similar approaches from others.

This is not how you're supposed to use LinkedIn. Your Open Source project is an organisation, not an account. I highly suspect the ToS says you can't have more than one account.
In the EU the PSD2 directive explains which market parties can apply for access to these systems. Which usually means you need to have a company that has interest in this kind of access and provide service to third parties. Unfortunately i think PSD2 only sets technical rules for authentication. Not for the actual API. So the bank might not give you direct access to SWIFT but to an API that abstracts it instead.

Which is why my blog is a "writing exercise," as you put it. I believe people can be more engaged with their media, but it is admittedly easier to go for the slogan-style messaging nobody has to think too hard about. I dream of a world where everyone has valuable, well-considered input and I will continue to write as though I live in that world until we get there.

Asking someone who wants to practice the art of writing to do otherwise is no different than asking a painter to just make stick figures.

It is kind of expected to have a profile you can link companies to, but I didn’t know people were actually active and engaging in discussions on the platform. I only sign in every few years to update something, but are you all actively exchanging with others on LinkedIn as a way to find jobs? I thought it was accepted since >10 years the whole platform is corporate noise.

Giving whitespace more semantic value than what it already has is a dangerous game. I already use whitespace to let the user "talk" with the autoformater and from my perspective that already spends all my whitespace (and weirdness) budget.
The emissions standards make zero sense here. USPS trucks don't spend hardly any time on normal driving. They move 10 feet, stop, move 10 feet, stop, etc. Emissions standards aren't set up around that, and I would not expect them to pass.

There are red flags, though. From another article:

> In our case, LVM makes it easy to allocate virtual partitions inside an encrypted SSD partition.

Is it really, though?

The author is using LVM to manage "virtual partitions", but then it's using 100%FREE for the larger partition, and using ext4 for all partitions.

In my experience this setup makes it actually harder to manage partition sizes, as before shrinking a partition a resize of the underlying ext4 partition would be necessary.

Nowadays it would have been better to use one of the modern volume-managing filesystems.

AFAIK the option available out-of-the-box in Arch Linux would be btrfs, but ZFS is another excellent (better, in my opinion) option.

I love PTA and have been doing it for years, using beancount, fava and emacs.

The main benefit for me is keeping track of everything, including pensions, RSU vests and so on.

I have some scripts that help me connect to banks and translate the transactions into the correct format with some crude rules based categorisation, along with scripts that convert CSV files from investment accounts etc.

It’s a lot of effort at first but I’ve got the system down now to maybe 10-15 minutes work once a week to keep everything updated.
In the past I've tried various free accounting tools, but sadly none of them could track account/card numbers (EDIT: while processing bank statement exports). I don't need to track my many bread and pastry purchases, but I'd like to track things like investments, split lunches, rent from flatmates etc.

I have multiple accounts and I need to track transactions between them, and also distinguish them for all other transactions. Could anyone here recommend a tool that deals well with this?

I'm partial to semi-ad-hoc plain-text bookkeeping, which I already do for other things, but I'd be happy for any recommendations.
They can gather more information from you. They can't gather more information from an email. It forces a decision based on exactly what the message said and no more - and they'd presumably want more information in order to ignore it. For a closer comparison you'd want to call from a payphone, make your report, then hang up.

I have no idea if this would actually work similarly but it is at least what people do in movies when they want to provoke a police response! And it does make sense.
Generally when I ride the MRT I unwind and just stare and chill. It helps that in a crowded train it's hard to fetch your phone from your pocket, even though everyone else does it. I think just by disposition I cannot physically stayed plugged in, otherwise I lose myself.

Having a grid makes it pretty difficult to "buy clean energy" because all generation is sort of laundered together. If you pay for a clean energy supplier, obviously there is no way to force that you only get electrons pushed by solar or whatever. You could change your supplier from week to week and nothing in the grid infra changes. But the market overall determines who can sell power, so if nobody wants to buy from coal, the coal plants won't get paid (or it becomes financially unviable to generate).

If you have on-site generation then this is a bit different because you can at least reduce your grid consumption. But otherwise it's not hugely different to buying carbon offset credits and assuming the trees will exist in 100 years.

> Too much of anything is not healthy.

You have lost me. I said a healthy diet you love.

So critiquing me as suggesting anything that is not a healthy diet seems odd.

A healthy diet can be created many ways, all involve a lot of variety.

But it can be convenient too. If you find the right mix (for your own tastes) of “superfoods” as a foundation. I.e. hummus, mixed greens, mixed berries, a mix of nuts, a mix of seeds, sardines, salmon & tuna (but not too much), eggs, etc.

If your fridge, pantry, and eating habits cover all your basic nutrition multiple ways by default, then adding a variety of other healthy foods can be done very spontaneously without any need for planning.

I know, it took me a few years, and a lot of iteration, but it would be hard to beat my diet.

Even my snacks are up there, like edamame, chocolate in moderation, fresh veggies, high protein low sugar ice cream, etc.

Achieving healthy autopilot is the point.

I disagree with the GP simply because this has been the state of the world since, well, forever. Witness the entire hippie and rock culture of the 60s and beyond. Imbalance of wealth and non-proportionality to labour has been a topic for millenia, not for decades.

And this has not led to any loss of intellectual curiosity or "eaten" any of the non-mainstream world.

Basically, there is always the mainstream, and there is always the counter-culture. HN lives in this weird mixture where it brings together both profit-seeking minds, but also is majorly a community of rebel types (hackers, freedom [not just software] aficionados and academics, just to name a few — and obviously, not all of them are the rebel types, but they are certainly not the "mainstream").

And each of us also lives somewhere on that N-dimensional continuum between searching for profit, fame/recognition, other mainstream behaviours and personal values which don't align with the "mainstream".
That looks cool, I'll take a look thanks! I've been studying how to implement blueprints+layers, that might give some good clues indeed, thanks!
I appreciate it for being honest tbh, 99% of job hunting in the IT field is filtering out the bullshit, or the greenwashing that what a company does is Good, Actually.

Example, I work for an energy company. Their objective is to earn money. They earn money by selling gas and electricity to their customers. Their revenue increases if they have more customers, using more electricity/gas, and if the price goes up. If they were honest, they would be pushing their customers to use more energy; "Hot in summer? Get an AC! Cold in winter? Don't wear a sweater, crank up the thermostat! Have you considered a sauna and jaccuzi? Isn't a long hot bath nice?" that kind of thing.

But all energy companies' marketing talk (both internal and external) is about reducing energy usage, their green energy efforts, tips to customers to reduce power use, apps and websites so they can monitor it, and currently, dynamic contracts so people can optimize their usage to when the price is lowest.

It's just so cynical.

but that's the point... why do you call it "success"

(I mean I get it: they are "good at making money" and "efficient" so you call it a "success" because that's what the capitalist society is pushing you to say / feel without asking yourself deeper questions)

Would you say that "heroin" is a success because it's very good at making people dependant?

You should probably use the term "they are very efficient at what they are doing" (descriptive) rather than "they are successful" (value judgment)

And then you should ask yourself: why are you praising efficiency for the sake of it?

And if you look further at the world, can't you see that efficiency and speed is actually one of our big issues? It's because we're over-efficient that we're consuming so much oil, decimating species, polluting our planet

If we were less efficient, sure we might have less stuff to play with (but who really cares?), but we would not be damaging our world so much

Perhaps you can take a few minutes to think deeply about it, and it might change your definition of "a success"
Thinking that kindness content is good is naive. It is exploitative and usually what people get from it is "it could happen to me" rather than "I could help others".

Boating. Switching between charts (or a device) and the horizon. Switching glasses to switch targets makes it tough to track that target on the horizon.

Thanks! That makes sense.

Mentally, I would put this in the "conventional" advantage category, because it relies on comparing fixed length chunks of memory and computationally it should not make a difference if `timestamp` is stored LE or BE for sorting.

This is what I would expect. They're a massive drain on the taxpayer and even if they work - which is mostly not the case in Germany - it's in small jobs that cost the taxpayer more in subsidies than they provide.

Watching my nephews grow up, I'm sort of gobsmacked about what my sisters are allowing them to watch. It's quite literally brainrot, I genuinely think what they watch is actively detrimental to their mental health and intelligence, especially since they're all below 10. It's just constant stimulation every single millisecond with no room to breathe, filled with random sound effects and noises constantly, while the "plot" is always some nonsensical crap.

The minecraft ones are the absolute worst for this, and to me the saddest thing is they'd rather watch some brainrotting machinima-style thing rather than play the damn game themselves.

As a side note, reading this comment back I'd like to formally apologize to my parents, because it seems I've turned into them and saying the exact same things they said about my hobbies :)

There's an idea that modern lives demand value in material terms. Usually it's monetary value. It's based on materialism and economics and can be seen most clearly in consumerism.

Even not spending time or money has to be worth something. Why do nothing if I can't measure the benefits.

Another example of this could be in the adoption of "Mindfulness" vs meditation. Mindfulness is a useful thing it can be measured and it has an industry behind it.

It's a philosophy that we see more and more in every part of our lives.

Consider art or poetry. Did people make art to be measured or to be useful?
Wow, this is a Hyper-V breakout! I am amazed that it's 2024 and we still have problems with basic input validation.
If you have a normal ECDSA private key, you get only one public key. However, there are ways to get a 1-to-many scheme, and similar ideas are used in U2F (yubikey or similar) systems.

The basic idea is you pick one private key that's a sequence of 256 bits or so, call this k. When you need a keypair, you compute H(k, tag) to get another bitstring, then turn that into an ECDSA private key (minding the bear traps here) and that then has a single public key.

For example in U2F, the key derivation is H(k, domain, ...) where k is the secret baked into the USB token, domain is the domain you're logging in to (this is the part that protects against phishing, among other things) and further protocol-specific information.

I don't think so.

Using hash functions requires a minimum amount of entropy in the seed. So do the schemes put forward in the article. In particular, these schemes require a relatively high degree of certainty about the amount of entropy in the stream at low variation. For the entropy extractors, the amount of total entropy required scales linearly with the length of the output stream. If you are using a hash function, the entropy requirement is constant.

The fact remains, both the method put forward in the post and using hash functions have a minimum entropy requirement. Even if you have only a small amount of entropy, hash functions will still get you more bang for the buck.

If push really comes to shove, you can still use a key stretching function[^0] to make it as hard as possible for an attacker to brute force what little entropy you have, as is routinely done with passwords.

To illustrate the difference in entropy requirement, imagine running the Von Neumann generator for a while, achieving the needed entropy level. In this scenario, the output stream of randomness will be fine. If you then get a section from the stream with very little entropy – much lower than the required amount – you get a section with very little entropy in your output stream. The Von Neumann generator can degrade, hash functions won't (for all practical intents and purposes).

Fortuna is designed to approach the entropy estimation problem. It is eventually secure even in the face of a determined attacker; due to the construction using entropy pools used with exponentially decreasing frequency of use, it covers an extreme range of different entropy levels – around ten orders of magnitude with 32 pools.

Crucially, once a secure level of entropy is reached, the RNG stays secure.

Of course, if the amount of entropy is low, Fortuna will produce quite a bit of insecure entropy before, eventually, producing secure entropy. In practice, this issue can be solved by running Fortuna for a while without producing any output. In a factory producing secure hardware devices, you might just allow the device to be active for a day, and you might some extra, high-quality entropy from the device that flashes your hardware devices in the first place.

Fortuna also allows you to use different sources of entropy securely. Using a Von Neumann generator for instance, achieving this is much harder.

Entropy estimation is borderline impossible in practice; Fortuna deals with this head on, with von Neumann you are lost if your estimate is off.
