You previously posted "Unskilled labor probably shouldn't be livable", so you'll have to excuse my doubts about your pro-worker stance.

> These people literally:

There's actually no evidence that occurred. I have my work email on my personal phone, and I can receive a 2FA code outside of work hours; I could sign up for Blind without ever once using company hardware or time.

Again, if Automattic has a history of permitting occasional non-work browsing/emailing - which they almost certainly do - sudden specific targeting of payment discussions would be a violation of the NLRA.
In classical controls (what TCEC mainly uses), yes.
They can play pretty exciting bullet chess without a forced opening though.
I use Next.js with Django regularly. Just set up Django as a REST API only. Have Next.js talk to the API either at build-time or run-time, whichever suits your use-case. You could even proxy calls to your backend server via Next.js server-side functions if needs be.

I find the full-stack-in-one-codebase approach that Next.js takes very hard to work with. It becomes hard to know what is "frontend" and what is "backend". Mixing server-side components with client-side components is a mess. So I stick to a traditional SPA approach: front-end static site and back-end REST API server.
Does it matter much if the key can be verified? I mean it seems like a pretty big step up security wise to know that a new version of a package is signed with the same key was previous versions.

Wordpress can't because it was a fork of b2/cafelog. You can't un-GPL code you didn't own in the first place.

"divide instead of multiply" is _precisely_ the thing that units help with. If you keep track of them correctly, and you know the units of the result you want, then it's impossible to make that mistake. (Of course there are other errors that units don't catch, but that's a pretty large class of them gone.)
> Typically, election coverage is narrowly focused on the horse race between the incumbent and main opposition party or parties. In Africa, it is often peppered with stories of election violence and rumours of corruption...

I can honestly say I have never heard a story of election violence or rumors of corruption involving a Dutch election in my entire 53 years on this planet. Not saying it doesn't happen just I have never heard such a thing.

South Africa (during and post-apartheid) on the other hand...

They chose to make this comparison, not me.

Malaysia and Thailand are both dodgy now and again, with the Thai military taking power a couple times IIRC, but are both relatively stable compared to Egypt. Kenya and Nigeria I know nothing about their election practices.
Even outside of RSS, the injected scripts often make internet security significantly worse.

Since the user-agent has no way to distinguish scripts injected by cloudflare from scripts originating from the actual website, in order to pass the challenge they are forced to execute arbitrary code from an untrusted party. And malicious Javascript is practically ubiquitous on the general internet.
The fact that TCEC games aren’t all draws suggests that computers aren’t perfect. Stockfish loses to Leela sometimes for example.

If it takes you "a couple hours" to complete https://www.teamblind.com/sign-up, that's on you.

> There wouldn't even be an article about this had any of this occurred after hours or on breaks.

You can't just make shit up to win an argument; there's absolutely no way of telling whether or not these emails were generated during breaks. All we know is Matt intercepted them. They could've signed up outside of work hours, during breaks, on vacation, etc. and Matt would still have been receiving them.

If it's anything like most other tech companies, breaks aren't even formal, let alone tracked/timestamped.
> It's a boon for competitors I suppose

I would think so too, but it’s not guaranteed.

Everyone thought for sure that Twitter would die with what Elon Musk has been doing to it, but somehow it seems to still be alive.

Likewise, everyone thought there would be a total exodus of users from Reddit to Lemmy or Kbin. And while those platforms did get a lot of new users, it feels like it didn’t reach the level of significance of the Digg -> Reddit mass-migration.

Therefore I am not convinced that people will actually be leaving Wordpress in droves. No matter how bad the situation currently seems for WP users.
How is it legally different to sitting a one hour interview? You're not getting paid for that either, that doesn't make it a minimum wage violation because its not doing work.

I think their code test / interview process sounds terrible, but the two days of code test is part of the interview, it's not producing code for the company to use.

(I do think that any company that wants applicants to spend that much time should pay for that time, but only for ethical, not legal, reasons.)
It's hard to prove intent, but convincing a jury there's a pattern of discrimination is a lower bar. So perceptions matter.

Doing things by the book provides evidence that the process is fair, objective, and was reviewed by multiple people.

I love responses like this because they highlight how allowing broken systems to persist can so thoroughly warp their purpose. Did anyone go to law school and specialize in immigration because they felt called to be "the modern equivalent of the overseer on the plantation?" Probably not.

This alone wouldn't be a full replacement. We do have a full product that does that with customers seeing great performance in production. Crunchy Bridge for Analytics does similar by embedding DuckDB inside Postgres, though for users is largely an implementation detail. We support iceberg as well and have a lot more coming basically to allow for seamless analytics on Postgres building on what Postgres is good at, iceberg for storage, and duckdb for vectorized execution.

That isn't fully open source at this time but has been production grade for some time. This was one piece that makes getting to that easier for folks and felt a good standalone bit to open source and share with the broader community. We can also see where this by itself for certain use cases makes sense, as you sort of point out if you had time series partitioned data, leveraged partman for new partitions and pg_cron which this same set of people authored you could automatically archive old partitions to parquet but still have thing for analysis if needed.
my personal take on evolution,is based on two fact like pieces of information, first is that life can perhaps be seen as extreamly complex assemblies of matter and energy
and second that the universe is a
vast field of energy gradients with a general mish mash of all of the possible elements of matter
lodged in a variety of disks,spheres,blobs,and ribbons, leaving much of it open for life to work in some form
which is just a re phaseing of what many have suggested is the feeling of the inevitability of life,which I might add,is miracle enough
I suppose what they mean is that it's easy to forget that it isn't Google from ten years ago when Google was good?
Given a long but finite time horizon, I believe humanity could (and I believe will as well) create an AI capable of lasting a billion years. If we look at the lifespan of life on Earth, around 4 billion years give take, it’s clear that long-term systems can persist under the right conditions. If we have approximately 7 billion years left before the sun becomes a problem, creating an AI using self-replicating systems, possibly through wetware or bio-engineered components, could allow it to endure for such an extended period. The key would be ensuring that it can maintain itself, adapt, and evolve over time.

Technologically feasible? Probably and likely
Not parent but here's a couple of not fully thought out ideas:

1. Have the signer upper send a provided email from their own Gmail account to their own company account. Then show the message's DKIM headers to blind. Now Matt has to find emails from employees personal mailboxes to their corporate mailboxes but he can't tell what the content is about.

2. Employ a graph of email forwarders (humans) selected from existing blind users. Use them to forward challenge email payload to the signer upper.
Now Matt has to find emails from anyone to anyone and still doesn't know what the content is about.
> You previously posted "Unskilled labor probably shouldn't be livable", so you'll have to excuse my doubts about your pro-worker stance.

I'm glad you enjoy my work. No, unskilled labor should not be livable. It's literally, unskilled.

That's a HUGE leap and assumption you are making here, isn't it? Sudden targeting of payment discussions? Do you have any evidence to suggest that is the only non-work-related topic being targeted here?
Okay, but there is a reason that lots of people on here are fans of Kagi. Are you saying you're tired of hearing people praise Kagi or are you just annoyed whenever there's enthusiasm for a product that costs money?

Good on him for doing so.
One way to read the delay was that the technical teams were working against a deadline clock that started as soon as the vehicle landed, to analyze and propose remedies for the thruster failures and helium leaks. And now they've hit that deadline, having found no good fixes.
Same. I’m so used to it now that when I see a google search page I think “woah, what is this? Oh. Yeah. Bleh”.
In response to your edit.

I can't speak to how their distribution is resulting in selling devices that don't have advertised features enabled. It is weird they would allow this while keeping their branding and same device name (maybe they are working around some trade restrictions?) So that is not good, but I don't know how widespread that issue is. And as I pointed out in my response before the edit, this seems straightforward to resolve if you buy from somewhere that has this issue.

Not to belabor the point, but in my original post I mentioned how PocketBook devices are specifically not Android as an advantage in terms of battery life.

I suspect that what you are experiencing with regards to it being "slow" to resume an in progress book and allow navigation may be due to your settings. The PocketBook has a sleep mode that allows quick resume for reading. How long after it goes to sleep before it powers all the way down is fully configurable from disabling it to waiting your choice of many options between 10 minutes and 48 hours. IMO the cold boot time is acceptable and I did not notice a difference from my 1st Gen Oasis. The power loss if you fully disable its auto power off is still great, although I haven't used it that way much beyond when I first got mine so I don't have a comparison to my Oasis.

That being said, I don't have the same model as you so maybe there is a significant difference between them in performance, but it would be easy enough to check independent reviews if I was trying to decide between them.
> That's a HUGE leap and assumption you are making here, isn't it?

No. Scroll up. I started with this, for context:

"You'd want to be very sure that at no point an email/text along the lines of 'let's do this, because people are discussing salaries' was sent that might show up in discovery."

> Do you have any evidence to suggest that is the only non-work-related topic being targeted here?

https://www.teamblind.com/sign-up has the tagline "Real salary data from verified employees"; it's a pretty single-purpose site. Matt had Blind signup emails intercepted and sent to him instead.

What other possible purpose of targeting this specific site could there be, if not to impact disclosure/awareness of salaries within Automattic?
It's very much not Google and you find things faster. They have 100 free searches for you to try.
5000x faster than the “typical” connection on 5G, which, translated, means absolutely nothing. 5G is technically capable of 20gbit/s. So, maybe it’s theoretically 47x faster… in practice, in the real world, I assume it’ll be much much slower and only a marginal increase over 5G.
It seems pretty obvious the H-1B system hurt him.

Ask HN: How to Learn to Live, from 27yo
Consider the scenario that a teen mother finally has enough and moves to a new city at the age of 27.

She's got 3 kids (oldest being 11) and financial support. But no license, didn't finish school, no experience, no hobbies, goals or aspirations except to start afresh and live anew.

What is her next move and how does she end up supporting herself and her kids? What are some daily life details that everyone takes for granted but is a game changer for people who don't know about them?

From me:

* Journal, every day you can. Just write out thoughts.

* Get the licence as it makes it easier to get around.

* Whiteboard in the house good for notes and TODOS

* Education is important. Keep the kids in schooling, and make sure everyone (including yourself) knows how to read, write, and do fractional / decimal maths
Hah, I was literally thinking of that as I was writing the comment.
Yes but that isn't a Linux-specific thing. You will always need a BSP (Board Support Package) for any embedded custom hardware, whether it's an SBC or any SoC for that matter.
The point we're at is one in which privacy is still attainable via implementation-layer measures, even if it requires investing some effort and making some trade-offs to sustain. The alternative -- placing trust in regulation, which never works in the long run -- will inevitably result in regulatory capture that eliminates those remaining practical measures and replaces them with, at best, a performative illusion.
I tried it for two months and it was good, but not that much better that I'd spend $10/mo on it. The results were basically about the same as DDG. I can't really relate to all the praise I see about it.

However, I do have to say that, when I was looking for a very specific post, I spent around twenty minutes on Google and DDG and they came back with trash, whereas Kagi found it right away. In that one instance it was, indeed, fantastic.
Crokinole is an amazing boardgame. It is deservedly in the top 50 on BGG. I'm an amateur woodworker and built my own board. We will happily spend hours playing it.
There are, roughly, four kinds of physical security one can have in a datacenter:

1) Nothing

2) Visitor logs

3) Locks and alarms on your racks, and/or (if you have enough) the rooms they are in. Remote monitoring is pretty common.

4) First party human security professionals

I don't have any special knowledge of Cloudflare's set-up, but 2 and 3 are by far the most common. Lacking #1 means your hardware just gets stolen. #4 is too expensive. #2 and #3 are where most people are, so probably something around there?

Sorry, I am not familiar how to address the issue from a developer perspective. All bigger services offer id via all banks plus mobile certificate. I believe the mobile certificate service is backed by Telia, even if your SIM is from another operator. Infamously Moi does not even offer the service at all.

Whether the banks have any common backend/provider or you need to deal with all of them sperately I don't know.
I think it depends on your needs. Any time I've tried to use an "all-in-one" full-stack solution I've quickly run into limitations, whether it's task running, authentication, web sockets, load balancing, redirects. Many of the platforms have limitations that you only run into once you're deeply committed and you've then got to find all sorts of hacks to fill in the blanks. Not saying Next and Vercel is like that per-se, but there is a lot more control when running your own backend services.
This is your visa application so you don't need to wait on the school or its counsel to act.

Pyro was created by Uber AI Labs. Actually, by Geometric Intelligence, which was eventually acquired by Uber. Geometric Intelligence was founded by Gary Marcus, Zoubin Ghahramani and others. They also had Noah Goodman onboard.

AFAIK, Pyro was used in production to make predictions of demand with careful consideration of uncertainty. I was contacted by one of their recruiters when I was doing work in this area, and this was the application they showcased.

Meta is also doing a lot of related work on time series forecasting using Prophet, which employs Stan under the hood. In both cases, Bayesian methods are important to make inference robust, it's not just an academic exercise.

Strong agree. If you want your video on, I am cool with that. If you want it off, also cool. If you're not present, I'm going to know either way, but I want you to be comfortable while we work together. I care about the output and outcomes, not the control. n=1, ymmv, etc.

Quote from the article:

“ Last year, the Census Bureau projected that the U.S. population would peak around 2080 and head into a continuous decline thereafter.”

The census bureau has to make those projections because they are supposed to do that. But that projection is most likely so inaccurate that it is not worth the paper it is printed on.
My point is that if the computer never flags it will have an inherent advantage in low time controls. If not, why not just test it in hyperbullet games? Games where humans flag in a drawn or winning position need to be excluded, otherwise it’s unclear what this is even measuring.
