Thanks for your insights! I just wanted to clarify a few points about how the system works, as I think there may have been some misunderstanding.

Everything in FortLock is decentralized:

Server A and Server B store hashed parts of the password, not the password itself, and they’re tied together via the Levelpoint stored on Server C. No single server has access to enough information to reconstruct the full password.
The Levelpoint is an additional layer of security, ensuring that even if one server is compromised, it’s useless without the other two.
We’ve also implemented several precautionary steps across these servers to ensure security, including encryption and independent infrastructures for each.
The intention behind using this decentralized approach was to reduce the risk of having a single point of failure. I understand that there are other state-of-the-art methods like public key cryptography and hardware enclaves, and I’m exploring those further as I continue developing this system.

I really appreciate your feedback—it helps me refine my approach and stay grounded in what's proven. I’ll definitely take this into account as I work to improve FortLock.

Thanks again for taking the time to comment!

Few things in the field are _ conclusive _ many things are highly suggestive and have few other explainations.

WRT "brain surgey" - the operation in question would be to relieve swelling under the skull that was pressing on the brain - probably caused by a blow.

The remaining skull would show that the hole was cut using an edge, likely extremely sharp flaked stone similar to a modern ceramic edge knife - an original blow would have splintered bone and caused a swelling, the splintering would have been cut away. Other evidence would likely have included signs that the bone restitched itself and "grew back" to a degree, demonstrating the person survived for some years afterwards.

I know nothing about this specific skull, there are others with similar work discussed in journals.
> Even if you were, is that really a bad thing?

I noticed, that it sounded like that after i submitted the comment. Was not intended.

> Are there really bad ideas in socialism ? yes of course, there are bad ideas in late stage capitalism or in any free market system or any system.

I totally agree.
I see where you’re coming from, but the reality is not as stark as you have put it. The forces you point to are real, but it’s more complex because many people have seen the value in learning about Earth.

A huge reason we have a NASA Earth observing system (and not just weather satellites) is the studies that grew out of the CFC damage to the ozone layer [1]. Ground stations and aircraft and balloons turned out not to be enough to assess it, so the measurements moved to space and use spectroscopy now.

(The current fleet: https://science.nasa.gov/earth-science/missions/)

This has led to comprehensive CO2 observation from space, and sea surface temperature, and many other climate-related measurements including methane. All this goes back many decades at this point. It’s not a few people who managed to launch one satellite!

This is probably a decent use case for plain old serial. Interface via application defined TTY.

On the other hand no matter the transport you’re probably going to get owned by well known vulnerabilities in any software processing data from the internet-connected side, if you’re using the air gap as an excuse to avoid patching or otherwise caring about secure coding practices.

You seem to have a poor grasp for what makes a good journalist.

The whole point of the story would get lost if at every step the author is embedding irrelevant minutiae e.g. how many parts per million of Zinc versus the baseline, what constitutes normal etc. Information that an ordinary reader would not be able to make use of.

You need to make the story engaging, interesting and succinct whilst being factual.
Opening the railways to competition has utterly ruined the UK's rail network. Ticket price has skyrocketed while service quality has fallen.

In the 30s, French rail companies begged and lobbied the government to nationalize them, so they could exit the burden that was maintaining a rail network.

Rail just isn't profitable, but is vital to society, and will become even more so as gas becomes increasingly expensive/lacking. Some things should just never be opened to competition.
The drugs have lifelong costs and side effects, and patients have lower life expectancy than the general population.

Well, this looney likes to point out that the manifold surface area (which is not always uniform) determines the rate of or density of distribution. All this is accounted for in the math selected for whichever for instance (“number of possible states” would count them) though a superior definition is one which is the most general technically correct without enumerating exceptions or extraneous clauses.

Resistance controls the rate of flow of any potential. That you cannot parse English without an exact match of phrase is kind of ironic.

I guess when arguing convention I shouldn’t be too casual with my own language.

Entropy is the distribution of potential over negative potential. In every case. Period. All the other words we use describe how this happens in a specific context (thermal or information).

Can you find an established definition that can be more succinctly regarded as this?

Also I like insisting it is a phenomenon of existential reality, not a conceptual tool of the human mind.

Best Way to Automate the Process of Find Qualified Backlinks
Here is the process that is working really well for us:

1- Use a backlink finder tool, like bestseomarketingtools(com), to find hundreds of domains in our product niche

2- Filter by the domains with similar DA as ours

3- Export the list of potential websites to a tool like Apollo and start a sequence asking for an exchange

PS: If the 101 exchange email does not grab their attention, you can also create a listicle of the top X tools in that niche and ask them if they want to be part of it and then ask for the backlink.

Let me know if this is helpful :)
Please refer to the comment of this comment!

it's leisure and guys don't do a lot of that because it raises questions about how serious they are when they could be using that time to get ahead in their jobs. pleasure itself is effete and often only acceptable in these relationships if it's ambitious social climbing. most of these activities and organizations are going the way of other institutions, so this horse thief catcher one just sounded really nice.
This reminds me of this Swedish office on a train https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3HbrI3refig , made for a company which had an hour train commute from Stockholm. It's even got 8 telephone line (4 in and 4 out)!

I guess a lot of people would use work booths/conference rooms on trains, but the price/profit has to work for both sides (the train company and users). As for trains, the old-fashioned 6 seater compartments offer more privacy for groups.
This response looks really bad for ZenDesk.

This is blatant dishonesty- the post documented in detail that the reward had already been denied, and the issue ignored multiple times before they contacted 3rd parties. That is not an ethical violation but an ethical necessity- after ZenDesk refused to act, they had an ethical responsibility to inform everyone affected.

This alone is a huge red flag that ZenDesk isn't a trustworthy organization, on top of trying to hide rather than correct security issues unless they get bad press.

If I were ZenDesk, I would pay out the bounty to this kid immediately, and release a detailed public apology explaining how the entire bounty review system has been revamped to take things like this much more seriously in the future.
For a developed country, 59 EUR is not all that expensive if it helps you get to a job. Having it be too cheap would probably degrade the quality of service for busier routes and make it harder for future projects to pay themselves off.

You can change how the bounding box Typst uses for layout is defined (i.e. set the top and bottom edges both to the baseline), then I would imagine the spacing would be baseline to baseline. Would need to adjust the space before a paragraph to compensate though.

There's something about it where it doesn't feel quite right when using the mouse as a GUI app. Compare it to something like Sublime Text. I can't quite describe it exactly. It just feels off. It feels like you are supposed to use the keyboard shortcuts to navigate around, and the mouse is sort of bolted on secondarily or something. So I would try to make it feel more like a modern GUI app, where using the mouse feels right.

Anyone from the Google Ads team here on HN?

I literally take psychedelics once every few months to keep myself healthy and avoiding the dopamine chasing that I otherwise slip into over time. Shockingly not all drugs are the same, or even that similar and the propaganda about drug use escalation is, I'm sorry, silly.
I did the same thing at your age, re school, so I understand. I also liked coming up with auth schemes.

One thing I would suggest is dropping the mail component and not involving it at all - you are using this as a weak second factor, exportable; monthly rotation.
Bind it to a hardware key instead and use proper cryptography.
I think among programmers (introverts) a lot of them just don't want to leave their house. They're happy sitting at home, gaming, and drinking beer. Which might account for why the interest isn't always reciprocated.

If you're someone who actually likes to go out and do things, introverts make terrible friends. The extreme extroverts I know are always doing things together, because they want to.

In my life I eventually realized that I'm a thoughtful and sensitive person in a world that generally doesn't think of others. I'm the one who reaches out first more often because I'm genuinely interested in and curious about my friends.

I think the key in this situation is to recognize when the interest isn't reciprocated. If someone consistently disrespects you or pays no attention to you then you're barking up the wrong tree and need to move on.
There’s a bit more than rough categories.

Phones and certain services like social are made to capture, retain and redirect your attention.

Students come more out of this tie of constructed consumption origin.

The default state is often not idle, boredom, it’s consumption.

Relative to that..

There’s productive time and non productive time.

Passive consumption va active learning or active creating.

It’s easy to see what services accessed at a network level per devices.

There’s also digital health built into android and iOS that tracks app usage by time.

Another option is apps like opal which help manage things.
I already posted below, but since you probably won't scroll down and I hate to see people get tricked: I would take this article with a massive grain of salt. Not "definitely wrong", but perhaps "of very dubious origin, making unusually strong claims based on unpublished, inconsistently-described evidence". For context, the "Columbus was Jewish" assertion is part of a broader "Columbus was secretly Spanish/Catalonian" fight they've been having for a while (which isn't surprising given the region's generally positive recollection of their "glory days" of genocide and slavery), as it's supposed to preclude him from being Italian.

Besides that, as an American who spent a semester in Spain and took a class focused on religious diversity specifically on the peninsula: your analysis is definitely possible, but there was also plenty of Jewish people practicing in secret throughout the reconquista. Thus the inquisition, even! The Reconquista took hundreds of years and saw multiple waves of anti-Jewish laws throughout the various Christian kingdoms, from taxes to restrictions to the famous expulsions, so there was plenty of precedent to learn from.

I'd be curious to hear from any actual experts on how the Spanish viewed national origin, and whether that played a significant role in religious persecution. AFAIK they welcomed converts with open arms (especially Muslim ones), which makes me even more dubious that Columbus would choose to repeatedly claim to be from Italy just to hide his Jewish ancestry. He was 100% verifiably a practicing Catholic, isn't that all that should have mattered to his peers? But I'm walking pretty blind here.

At some point, most of your engineering time is spent on trying to understand what the previous team did. There's probably some engineer at Zendesk banging his head on the table because his boss wouldn't let him fix the sequential ticket IDs when he found them two months ago.
Also because Russians hate Poles.

Actually if you ask Russians, they'll tell you they dont hate Poles, its the Poles that hate Russians. But then again, Russians thinks everybody hates them. It's engineered hysteria.
For longer term storage use an analog camera to take pictures of the QR codes, then develop the film and store them in an airtight climate controlled vault. Bonus points if the film is designed to be very stable after developing. Maybe platinum prints with lots of error correction.
When I started studying at university it was an optional additonal fee paid with the Semesterbeitrag and the ticket was only valid in the city (not even the state) and its close surroundings. A bit later they didn't allow us to opt out anymore but lowered the price a bit.

So for students in my region this was never free and still isn't,

Pardon me if you're ahead of me on this, but it sounds like you might be using a proportional typeface as the default or fixed-pitch face. You should get nice-looking proportional type if you set the variable-pitch face to your desired typeface and enter variable-pitch-mode in the buffer. E.g.,

(custom-set-faces '(variable-pitch ((t :family "Verdana" :height 180))))

And then in the buffer you wish to view with proportional type, M-x variable-pitch-mode.

The way they implemented this process makes it easy and quick to get compensation while other carriers - who are supposed to follow the same rules - make it quite a bit harder to get compensated.

> SNCF-Connects lets you specify the exact seat configuration. You can choose single, double (window or not), quadruple (next to each other or face-to-face). In addition to that you can express your preference for family area and if you do not want to sit facing against the driving direction.

You can do the same on bahn.de or in DB Navigator (which is mostly equivalent to a canned version of the site plus a few extras). Not all trains allow seat selection, sometimes seats are assigned automatically. Other trains - e.g. Dutch Intercity trains - do not offer reservation at all. The Swedish/Danish Öresundståg (a service running mostly in the south and west of Sweden) theoretically allows reservation but this hardy ever works, at least when booking through DB. Do mind that I use DB to book trips crossing several countries using different operators, in this case SJ (Swedish state railway), Öresundståget, DSB (Danish state railway), DB, Eurobahn and NS (Dutch state railway). All in a single booking with a single payment and a single point of contact using a single ticket.
Very on-point. I’ve made some friends and amazing memories there, but overall the experience was lukewarm, and sometimes bad, in terms of everything you listed (curriculum, culture, location.)

My dilemma is mind vs heart - the mind knows I can learn anywhere and it’s time to move on, and the heart doesn’t want to ‘miss out’ on the memories I could make there next year.

What’s so strange about this? Columbus is one of the most important explorers in history, but his past, and resting place had been unconfirmed - even his birthplace was unknown.

500 years later after multi-year dna study, we now have the information and it paints a very fascinating picture. He left Spain in August, the same week that Jews were kicked out. This explains why he left Spain. He was known as a catholic, but it’s now clear this was due most likely due to forced conversion.

History is important, and this is a significant dna study that sheds light on the legacy of a key figure.

Long distance trains are getting more unreliable (ICE, IC) due to repair works on the tracks - regional / local trains are mostly fine (at least in my place here) and I can't remember the last time there was an delay longer than 10 minutes here. However lately I've saw that trains are cancelled due to manpower shortages and due to the nature the local trains are organized (there is a tender and a railway company wins that tender for 5 years with the same rolling stock) peaks in capacity like on the weekend are not dealt with.
