A massive one; not reading the config is just a consequence of dropping all file system access once you're done with the initial program setup. You can also set up listening sockets, and then stop the program from making any new network connections, even after a compromise. And so on, with most resources. There are a lot of resources that tend to be needed to set up a program. There tend to be very few needed once the program is running.

How would you block all file system access after a program is finished reading its config files, the files they include, and the shared libraries and plugins scattered around the file system? How would you turn off all network access after the listening socket is established?

With Pledge, it's trivial:

load_config();
load_plugins();
open_sockets();
pledge(NULL, NULL);
run();

Pledge makes everything you're talking about work trivially, the only thing that's needed is for the program to opt in to security with one line of code. You don't need to micromanage the permissions and what the program is doing to drop privileges from the outside, with all of the race conditions and fragility that implies.

California likely won’t address the issue independently, as those most affected by forest fires often lean Republican, leaving little political incentive. Meanwhile, federal intervention seems unlikely since California’s electoral outcome is consistently Democratic, reducing any strategic motivation for federal support.

The result? Despite urgent needs, little action is taken on either side.

One reason why psychologists like to operationalize concepts is to make them measurable. Take a look at the way mystical experiences are measured—it’s a great way to get clarity on what mystical experiences are.

https://psychology-tools.com/test/meq-30

Or see the factor analysis based on a study of over a thousand users of psilocybin. The dominant factor is feelings of unity— followed by feelings of positivity, transcendence of space/time, and ineffability (inability to put the experience into words).

https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1111/j.1468-5906...

These feelings have been described across history and culture. These are not merely drug experiences — they are “perennial” mystical experiences.

The notion of unity is central to the experiences— but what does that mean? One can look for understanding in many traditions—I’ve found a lot of value in the Pythagorean-Platonic tradition.

(As a side note, I wonder how the concept of unity compares to the concept of “harmony.” https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S240587262...)

I think different levels of "reasonable" are being mixed up here.

By the normal definition, it's a reasonable thing for an employer to want, and a reasonable thing for an employee to not want.

But if we're treating "reasonable" and "strikeworthy" as opposites, then sure it can be "unreasonable".
If the fire insurance is just straight not available, that is probably because people should not be living there.
Adam Curtis made a fantastic documentary on the darker side of our relationship with technology. I don't agree with all of his points, but it's still a great watch.

From Wikipedia: Curtis argues that computers have failed to liberate humanity, and instead have "distorted and simplified our view of the world around us".

I'm sure there is some contribution of nutrient deficiency to obesity, nutrition is too complex to assume otherwise. However I'm not convinced it's the main driver, although the change in diet required to control intake usually improves nutrition as a side effect.

To be more concrete, the single correct part about "calories" is that the quantity matters, but the only practical road to keeping that under control is being naturally satiated, which is entirely about what you eat, everything else is a side effect of what. I know there are more complications when we are talking about people who grew up on very bad diets and have been obese all their entire lives - there's the psychological aspect and what the gut is used to that can take a long time to change - but putting that aside, the simplified extremes are:

1. You eat predominantly processed food based on carbs and sugar all day (90% of the isles in supermarkets, that also happen to be nutritionally empty but that's a another topic). You will always be hungry, because your body has been exposed to so much sugar that it never gets close to entering ketosis during the day, so as soon as you run out you immediately feel hungry. The only way to prevent overeating is pure will power, which is not sustainable for anyone, and extremely unpleasant.

2. You eat predominantly natural food, it has far higher fat and protein content, far less sugar, far less carbs. We are talking red meat, eggs, fish, milk, veg, nuts (lots of good fat). It's really hard to even intentionally over eat on these natural foods, and to eat too frequently, because it's so high in fat and protein and so low on carbs (relatively, it doesn't mean you can't have bread in your sandwich). Your body very easily enters ketosis between meals so you don't tend to get hungry easily outside of excessive exercise.

I'm a human being, I don't adhere to #2 strictly, but I try to make that my core diet, and the effects are really obvious. On the days I have some naughty cake or croissant or whatever, I notice how much hungrier I am all day, I just accept that, it's ok, I don't do it every day. Trying to control that hunger is futile and I get a taste of what it's like for all those poor obese people who unfortunately don't know this is the reason, I don't blame them, they are a product of their environment (food industry) and a lack of education.
Facebook already made a statement sayings it's against their terms of use.

There is not much you can do if the morally corrupt use something that is out in the public, specially if it is out in the wild west of license enforcement.

Most of this more open licensing depends on people being honest. If someone lies, cheats, steals and kills people for a living, it would expected for them to take someone else's work and use it against the terms of use. They probably just say the obligation as it does not count in their country.

Perhaps a multi-billion $$$ fine against Nvidia and sanctions against any country that was used as a party to these transactions are in order. This is a national security issue for the USA.

> What crawls on four legs and causes women to drop out of the labour force?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motherhood_penalty

progenity penalty is a societal issue, not issue between worker-corp. It is individual choice of a household to pro-create, and each mother's gender penalty is offset by father's gender penalty.

one may argue that America should provide more incentives to working families, but I see it as a society level issue, not the issue between a particular worker union and NYT.

I would love American society to unite once and for all, and ignore all artificial wedge lines created by MSM and uniparty (state, party, rural/urban, region, identity, ideology) and demand better laws that provide longer PFL and affordable childcare.

You may want to check your numbers again - these figures firmly put you in the red with only 60K post tax, and additionally, you're not putting away any significant amount in savings and investments.

"We are different. This is how my family built the wealth"
Followed by
"Granted, we are not contributing to retirement but this won't be forever situation"

By your own admission, you aren't contributing to retirement. This is the exact opposite of "building wealth". Furthermore stating that this isn't a "forever situation" is tantamount to admitting that this COL is untenable long-term. You seem to accidentally being arguing against the very point you're trying to make.

In general, emergency savings should be able to sustain your current cost of living from between 3 and 6 months.

Your margins are razor thin and unless you have some kind of extended family that can help bail you out financially, you have almost no safety net.

I think your right - hosting parties could present various issues i.e. building restrictions, HOA rules etc. But do think it could work if the event is not necessarily a party? Say for instance your a suburban mom and your looking for a play date for your kids for Friday afternoon. You hop on the app and you can see which families are hosting a play date on Friday. Think of it as an app that tells you in real time what events are happening in either your immediate vicinity or a specific area of interest.

We tried this approach at a former company with ~600 engineers at the time.

Trying to boot the full service on a single machine required every single developer in the company installing ~50ish microservices on their machine, for things to work correctly. Became totally intractable.

I guess one can grumble about bad architecture all day but this had to be solved. we had to move to remote development environments which restored everyone’s sanity.

Both FAANG companies I’ve worked at had remote dev environments that were built in house.

There is a difference between allowing use and supporting a use case. Supporting would be, for example, adding military specific training to the model. If we were talking about a car or a tractor nobody would bat an eye. Should companies not sell potatoes to the military? To be clear, I am not a fan of developing for the military, but the idea that a TOS will stop AI being weaponized is a bit naive. Similarly, if the goal is to responsibly introduce AI to the world then shaping the military's adoption of it by allowing its use, without specifically supporting it, is probably a good path.

The more they sell, the less likely China & others are going to make a real alternative.
In the page model, a heading says it needs only one line of vertical space, so if there’s a tiny bit of space at the bottom of the page it’ll get orphaned. (Vertical box space shown as ! and % for the heading and paragraph, respectively.)

Page 1 Page 2
.. Paragraph..%
.. ..text. %
.. ..
.. ..
!Heading

When instead it should be moved to the top of the next page:

Page 1 Page 2
.. Heading !
.. Paragraph.. %
.. ..text. %
.. ..
..

Rather than being honest about needing one line…

Heading !
Paragraph.. %
..text. %

…the heading could instead claim it needs three lines, which would ensure it would never be orphaned:

Heading !
!
!
Paragraph.. %
..text. %

But now you have a big gap below the heading.

If you could then shift the paragraph up from where it should be in the flow such that the vertical space of the heading and paragraph overlapped…

Heading !
Paragraph.. !%
..text. !%

…then you’d get a heading that would never be orphaned on one line, but which looked as it if only used one line.

to me, this is actually an argument in favor of becoming a spherical object, so that you can easily switch job in case your boss is horrible.

You don't want to be stuck under a bad boss, do you? or do you want to take a gamble that each manager will be perfect (manager can change without your control as well due to restructuring)?

> Turns out "gender pay gap" magically disappears as soon as you start controlling for relevant variables

I think this is false?

The gap certainly becomes smaller when you control for those factors, but it does not disappear.

But don't take my word for it; search for "unadjusted gap" (or "uncontrolled") vs "adjusted gap" (or "controlled") to see various reports. Your quoted source does not cite much data that I can see.

My understanding is that the adjusted pay gap is approx. 99¢ vs. $1 for men; one source, with data and a description of their methodology: https://www.payscale.com/research-and-insights/gender-pay-ga...

(and of course, aside from this, the question of why women would tend to have less experience and lower titles than men, is a valid topic on its own, and adjusting for it doesn't make it unimportant)
Yes, but that takes specific Presidential action with a national security justification. It's not just an ambient power of the military.
I bring home $1200 a month and that’s pretty much eaten up by bills. 400 rent, 250 phone (4 people), 100 w/s/g and electric, 300 food. Once we’re past the holiday season I should be able to put away ~200/mo if I’m really good and if I can keep my student loans in forbearance. Atm I have a tiny savings that would cover two months expenses. I qualify for Medicare but it’s been 3 months trying to navigate the application process (not to mention the terrible software), and still haven’t gotten my card (though I was finally just approved).

Sure is a far cry from two years ago when I was bringing home ~7000/mo after taxes, but there’s nothing like having nothing to remind you who you are.

Ask HN: How long until a social media influencer wins a Nobel Prize?
The Nobel Committee has shown a tendency to award prizes not just for meaningful technical contributions, but also for work with just contemporary relevance. This could be seen as an attempt to maintain their own relevance in the modern world. Given this trend, is it inevitable that a social media influencer with a large following but no original scientific work will receive a Nobel Prize? If so, how soon might this happen?
Our Solar system is a gravitational well that tends to put things in solar orbit. You really want the waste products to leave the solar system, which isn't terribly difficult, or you want them to land on the sun itself, which is exceptionally difficult.

Yes, it is counter intuitive but it takes less energy to leave the solar system get to the sun (you have to cancel out the Earth's orbital speed). Something learned from Kerbel Space Program.

The value an employee creates is a function not only of their labor but also the *lever they are given by the company* It's amazing how often I see this asinine argument that assumes an employee is generating value in a vacuum.

Labor compensation is determined primarily by substitutability. A $200K engineer creating "$1M worth of value" is not automatically deserving of a higher wage unless there is no one else willing to do that engineer's job for $200K.
If people don't have stress in their lives, they'll invent it.

For example, my dad survived 32 missions over Germany. His group had 80% casualties. He had resigned himself to inevitable death. When he arrived home, he was amused by the trivial things people were stressed about. After all, they would survive to the next morning.

Thereafter, whenever he felt down, he'd think about what a golden opportunity he had to live, that his buddies did not have.

This morning, it was rainy and gloomy. In the afternoon, the sun came out and lit up the wet trees. It was spectacular. What a fine day to be alive.

I've seen comments like this almost daily this week.

Does HN not use lockfiles or something? Your node/npm project will work just fine if you use the same version of node/npm and have a lockfile.

Maybe you're using npm i (which can upgrade dependencies in some cases) instead of npm ci [0] (which always uses the lockfile dependencies).

In any case, this is a general problem of package managers and has nothing to do with the language. You'll need something similar if you're using _any_ external dependency in Rust, Python, Go, etc.
