I was told we had the best healthcare in the world. What's the rationale for such a drastic change to a great (but extraordinarily complicated) system? If it ain't broke don't fix it.
That's because it's an ESR build. Normal build does that, too. The extensions still have to be signed. It's not a Debian thing.

One ESR build, you can disable signature checks though in about:config. Not sure how this fits into the standard Mozilla orthodoxy. Remember that core tenet of the orthodoxy is that users can't be trusted to protect themselves...

So maybe Mozilla cares less about safety of users that want to use their ESR (extended support) build. There are way fewer of these users than that of main Firefox build, so their safety is maybe not that important on the grand scale of 2.5% marketshare that Firefox still holds.

Looking at the wiki page for Sure, they serve many island jurisdictions with a total pop of ~265k, and the falkland islands is only ~3500. That's a ratio of 1:75, 100/75=1.3 million lines up pretty well with OPs comment of the budget for the falkland islands.
An Idiot that called herself Bitcoin Manager scammed of my earn hard money I consulted JBEE SPY TEAM when I was involved in a bitcoin trading scam. It was unknown to me that there were systematic ways to retrieve scammed funds. I came across a business website who promised a huge return on investment. I was so convinced. The website was good and after all the convincing, I ended up depositing 150,000 USD, unfortunately, I fell into the wrong hands. I was really devastated until I sent an email to an expert who came highly recommended to JBEE SPY TEAM
I gave him all the information about the scammer and this hacker also work together with the FBI., and within a few working days, they restored 85% of my BTC back to my wallet. I was shocked and glad at the same time. With trustworthy people like JBEE SPY TEAM I can 100% guarantee your money will be recovered back.

There is a likely potential skill more valuable than any other: the ability to be happy regardless of your circumstances. You can try to change your circumstances, but this alone doesn’t guarantee happiness.

Intelligence can work against this skill. The more intelligent you are, the more problems you perceive around you. The more intelligent you are, the more imperfections you notice. This can make it harder to feel satisfied and happy.

You might try to find a rational solution for happiness by asking, "What is the universe’s purpose?" or "What is my purpose?" If you could answer these, maybe you’d find a path to happiness. Or if you knew that and you don't like that, maybe you couldn't be happy ever again.

But what is existence, really? For humans, it’s a shared illusion constructed by our senses. The universe, to us, is only what we can measure. We don’t know what’s truly real – reality is just a collective agreement. Even the mathematical proofs are based on the limitations of the language that we have created. How much is missing from this language, we don't know.

Maybe instead of solving the puzzle, we should focus on training ourselves to be happy. Maybe the happiness isn't our purpose, but if you are happy, it does not really matter that much. What if solving the puzzle would give you happiness? Okay. What then?

Clang Thread Safety Checks Begin Uncovering Bugs in the Linux Kernel
I went to an advanced high school then that had Internet access. We had multiple Sun3/4 and IBM AIX system. I really wanted a Unix system for myself but they were so expensive. The students who graduated a year ahead of me and started college started emailing me about this cool new thing called Linux. Just reading about it was exciting even though I didn't even own a PC to install it. I saved up all my money in 1994 to buy a PC just to run Linux.

> many of them permanent

Almost none of these would be permanent, and you certainly don't have a 1 in 3 chance of them being permanent. Where did you get that number?

> With even the most potent psychedelics such as LSD, on the other hand, there's merely a one in thousand chance for severe side effects.

This is fucking nuts. We're in a thread about how taking too much can clearly cause weeks of psychosis, and how easy it is to do that. There's nothing wrong with warning about the risks of SSRIs, but to claim you have a 1 in 3 chance of having permanent nausea while, in the same breath, claiming psychedelics are 100x safer, is beyond irresponsible.
I wouldn't believe that, but there are plenty of other activities that I do because people have anecdotally reported that they benefitted from them. In this case I would use my internal judgment and intuition to decide based on benefits vs cost/risk. Does it seem unlikely to harm me, but many people have suggested they benefit from it? Sure, I will try it. I will see if I feel better or notice anything. If I don't, that's fine. If I do, I wouldn't necessarily know if it is beyond placebo or not, but I could keep doing it to see how it affects my life and if it keeps seemingly positive I can decide to keep doing it even though I don't have scientifically unquestionable truth that it is actually helping me. People have survived generations and found things that work without needing everything to be scientifically verified.

All thanks to jbee spy team, my mom promised to get me a car if i could get a good high school grade, but unfortunately i got a D instead which i know my mom won't be proud of so i saw a jbee spy team review on here, i contacted them with my issues and they helped me change my grades into A's i really couldn't believe cuz it felt like an impossible task but jbee spy team did it anyway and i got my car present from my mom.

Interestingly, there was some early work in the timeframe of Android Ice Cream Sandwich (4.x) to create unified social media stream, something that AFAIK was also done with specialized apps on some BlackBerry Android based device IIRC.

Didn't go anywhere, probably because of ad revenue needs.
Cool theory but no one uses typescript, github or C# because of VSCode. It's a nonsensical narative if you just spend more than a few seconds thinking about it. All those things dominated their niche before VSCode came into the picture.

Any better product can be accused of "trying to suffocate the OSS alternatives". Do Microsoft somehow have the power to make other OSS projects suck?
> Tanenbaum was theoraticaly correct.

He was only correct in a world where programmer and cpu time is free and infinite.
I personally think it says volumes about how those in the Trump-Musk group (Musk group?) see this. They see the task as infiltrating an adversary, requiring someone with the technical skills to do so but who is also disposable. This in their mind is not about improving anything in the government for citizens, or with regard to US interests, it's about gaining access to a hostile entity without regard to their interests or the long-term interests of the persons actually doing the activity. It doesn't matter if they compromise US security, because the US is a hostile adversary, and they don't want to deal with people who might hesitate because of families or a reputation to uphold. If this person gets in trouble for security breaches or racism or whatever, they just fire them and replace them with another 19 year old with nothing left to lose and/or plenty of time left to go another path later.
On sites that serve user-generated content, how would one technically detect if one's ads are being served alongside CSAM? Wouldn't the ad source need to be able to fully read the contents of the page itself?

Are there good technical solutions to that problem? And whose responsibility is it to solve - the ad source, or the platform through which CSAM is being served?

Definitely something that needs solving, but sounds really hard to solve - unless you just don't serve ads on that site at all.
Dev tools are written with people running macOS. They already have trouble following XDG instead of polluting one's home directory, imagine asking them to use unveil.

Also AFAIK unveil is an OpenBSD thing. Does VSCode even do BSDs? chroot is POSIX and none of the junior devs employed by Microsoft are aware of it.

Dr. Caplan in fact does cover this point in TCAE, of course. He comes to conclude that only about 70-80% of the effect of education is attributable to signalling. A solid 20-30% still looks like good old fashioned human capital improvement, and it is largely concentrated around the basic primary education skills of reading and arithmetic. (He even has the spreadsheets where he calculated all this out online, and he has talked before about how sad he is nobody has ever tried to fiddle with the actual numbers.)

Probably not actual "2a+4=12, how much is a?" style basic algebra, though. In the United States, which is about lower-middle of the pack on PISA, about 1 in 3 adults would struggle with that level of algebra according to the PIIAC, to say nothing of e.g. the actual compound interest equation, even if the rough idea makes sense.

That's not "most people", but it's definitely "a plurality" of people. And yet life is pretty great!
I got the reMarkable Pro tablet recently and as a result was able to move on from my Sony DPT-S1 and reMarkable 2. The latter was nice for its hackability but the screen size of the Pro, its color functionality, and size have made it a great replacement.

For that to be meaningful, you need the height as well, which is 75 meters (mentioned in the article).

Sort of but road erosion is to the fourth power of weight while fuel consumption is approximately linear with weight, so the tax is not exactly proportional to use.
But this is true, right? The whole movement is based on their legal theory giving them rights to behave in a certian way, and the idea that everyone else wastes that 'right' through ignorance and state manipulation. It's dumb, but not dishonest.

Back around 2003 our director said "This customer wants to put our camera chip in a phone." I thought it was a dumb idea.

I remember when the first iPhone was released in Jan 2007 that Jobs said all the non-Apple apps would be HTML based.

I thought it was dumb. Release a development environment and there will be thousands of apps that do stuff they couldn't even think of.

The App Store was started in July 2008.
I’m not saying there weren’t great games, far from it.
On the OS, there are valid technical reasons for explaining some of the gap. The networked OS idea from the 90s simply isn't great, and as computers became more powerful it became a non-brainier to make each one do everything and get rid of the unreliable network.

But well, that's just some of the gap. The truth is that most of what the industry does is chosen by really stupid reasons (or some times raw corruption), where the people making the choice has no power to fix any problem, and the problems are kept there by people not interested on improving anything.

If you want to research why the industry does what it does, you should study political science, not anything related to IT.
Ah yes, the old "interference on the tenth harmonic" explanation.

Really? Which bands are in use that are interfering? Why are the downlinks not wreaking havoc today?
Insomnia often responds very well to therapy techniques, but this requires the person to be open to the idea that therapy techniques can help.

A common challenge is that people think they’ve “tried everything” already and therefore therapy suggestions are equivalent to dismissing the seriousness of their problem. It can take a self-discovery like this article describes to bring someone back around to the idea that the condition is related to something like anxiety or obsessive behaviors and is receptive to behavioral modification.

A different take from John Banville (I haven't read it so can't offer an opinion one way or the other):

'It affords a reviewer no pleasure to be harsh on this book, which Jo Catling frankly declares was "a labour of love". However, to present in the guise of a volume of mainstream essays the spade-work left over from a life of academic toil can only diminish the posthumous reputation of a writer who, in books such as The Rings of Saturn and the superb Austerlitz, showed himself to be one of the last masters from the great age of Mitteleuropean high literature that is now drawing to a close, in its own silent catastrophe.'

I think you are talking about https://www.jetbrains.com/remote-development/gateway/ which requires a separate manual install on the client followed by a manual installation on the server during setup. It is not part of the regular IntelliJ IDE as far as I can see.
That isn't my impression of how it works? https://man.openbsd.org/unveil describes a system call that a program uses at runtime, so it should be easy for Firefox to start up and then use unveil() to limit itself to paths it knows it will need (but it can pick those paths dynamically when it starts)
My wife and I enjoyed Tokyo for ten days in October of 2023. After a long day of site seeing, we would stop in at a Lawsons for a variety of snacks to eat while we rested up for the next day. The store was always clean and the small meals were very tasty.

(not related to Lawsons: we discovered the "joy" of a bidet in our hotel room. Upon returning home we immediately ordered a Toto.)

That was also my immediate thought. However, what was the chance that the method they did use would end up not working?
