>For live, or sports, the camera and lens need to be extremely overengineered so every take is perfect, because you won't get a second attempt.

what does this mean?

$10 is way too much for something so average.

>I don't want to kiss ass to war criminals.

Context?

>I never felt welcome at Defcon, it was like being in high school at the pool table

They are like any clique but taken to the extreme. To me what's interesting is seeing how people change over time as they get older. What is old is new again, until you get married and have kids. A lot of white knights in the community as well who hide dirty secrets and make big noise about other people to deflect attention from themselves.

I've had someone legit tell me they didn't want to associate with me implying that it was bad for business despite the fact they helped me personally financially. The message between the lines was that somehow, they thought I was going to cause issues with attendance in their classes or association. Meanwhile, they are probably the most prominent member of the community. Absolutely ridiculous grandstanding.

Netflix is sort of already doing this, producing films based on your content and metrics of what you search for and watch. They aren't automating the actual movie bits yet, but it's progress.

As a 31 year old, I have no idea. I run several meetups & it helps with some things, but you get to a point where your group becomes insulated. You only meet new, fresh people when you do different things. There's also a difference between making friends for the sake of making friends & solid, meaningful relationships like stated here.

What services do this & are they expensive to implement? Are you just unloading CC data & other hashed values for matches like Maxmind?

For people who are looking for something different than 1Password, I suggest looking at 2 Factor Buddy: https://www.twofactorbuddy.com/

What do you do to command such a salary?

I seriously don't doubt things are like this. Holy crap.

We're complaining about Rei's actress? Such a beautiful woman deserves our devotion, haha. If anything, I was annoyed by the casting of Bancroft. It's like someone saw James Purefoy in "The Following" & decided "Yes, we want this crazy guy in this series". Sure he wasn't around for quite a bit & wasn't too central to anything other than "main good guy, solve my murder!" but his...essence bothered me. But I'm biased ;)

I don't think it was hard to make backups, but that it was expensive, cost prohibitive by the 'have nots' who are unable to afford or acquire the ability to say, clone themselves on demand.

What needs to make sense of her plot, exactly? She (or her sleeve?) was damaged or had an issue to the extent that all that was left was her stack. It was fascinated to me to see a AI help bring a human back as an individual & use methods it thought would help someone the best.

I have a dumb question when it comes to Ceph:

Whatever happened to the good ol' days of best practices? At least with Microsoft products, say, something like SCCM, you have metrics that can tell you what works & what doesn't work. Or, a software product on Microsoft's platform like PDQ Inventory/PDQ Deploy. I know with a decent 4GB memory/60GB HDD/1Gbps network, I can manage 40-50 desktop PCs fairly easily.

Do people not do baselines anymore? There's so much random documentation for Ceph. It's poorly documented. There are no logical help switches for it. And there's no "Oh, you should have x mons for this many OSDs"

It's just poor. Poor all around. :-(

The stupidity of this is, Twitter made Tweetdeck. Why are we complaining about how bad the UI is if they made something better for specific users?

Could they use these arguments to get MalwareTech back from the States?

As a Syasdmin, Powershell is a scripting dream: it has tab completion for the commands and the switches. I don't feel like I have to guess or look at man pages to figure out why there's a -s and an -S. The help pages are usually written for human consumption by comparison. Saying that it is 'unnecessarily inscrutable' is quite hilarious - have you seen some Linux commands & the lack of output they give? Powershell, if anything, ins extremely verbose & is clear in when something goes wrong.

At least, it doesn't insult you like Ansible tooling with the ^ YOU MADE A MISTAKE HERE BUT WE CAN'T BE CLEAR WHAT IT IS

Do you have more information on these 'protected proxies' that you mention? My understanding was more that it was each client was given a health check of sorts & was either allowed, or not allowed after meeting a certain number of criteria.

My only problem with Firefox these days is that extension overhaul completely screwed with how I browse, store & catalogue links & things I find. The fact things like the tab groups extension are broken (and, the fact that it was removed when it was a baked in feature years ago), is ridiculous. I see no reason why they can't add this feature back as part of the browser.

This just isn't true. I see these all the time. It's all automatically generated these days.

the problem is you have to tie a debit account to this, right? Why can't I tie another credit card as a source of funding to this, or Paypal or some other stream? The less organizations that have my debit information, the better.

I thought most of YC HN was based out of/lived in a California bubble. Surely the rest of the commenters here have modern cars? I have a VW GLI that has climate control that beats the shit out of any car I've owned before it. There was also another posted complaining about their radio having to ''boot up'' before they could change the audio volume. I've literally never heard of these issues. This is ridiculous.

>tptacek's reputation

Could you explain? I never really understood him as an individual & he's been... well, harsh at times to me & others.

You guys are freaking out about apples, but I'm excited for the application of (the concept of) silencing towards humans. I don't think* it quite works this way & I'm sure biologics are similar, but it would be amazing if you could do the same thing for humans. Imagine doing that for people who have psoriasis. Would be amazing if the body took to that & could continue producing cells that react properly.

this is neat! thanks, this wasn't a thing a year or so ago. Now if only I can figure out if I can add Slack teams without fucker or the reverse.

As far as I know you can exgest your data & close the team -- what's the issue with ripping it out again? :)

Except they don't have an app you can install on your phone/desktop/laptop, last I checked. If I could also join a 'Mattermost' team from the Slack app so everything is centralized, I'd be happy as fuck.

Windows 10 is probably your issue there to be honest. I have issues with HipChat at work on Windows 10 on a Mac. But at home on Linux with worse hardware? No issues. It's literally Windows 10 & drivers.

This is awesome & good news in every way. A lot of the comments here seem to really circle around how people treat instant message communication vs e-mail and/or being inundated with being a part of multiple Slacks.

If you are blocking co-workers like one person mentioned or muting them, you have other issues (yes, you can mute a user)

If you're demanding or need instant communication with someone, just call them from Slack. Or, alternatively, make sure you '@' them properly & force a send notification. The issue I see is that not everyone is all about real time comms -- some people put Slack on their phone or on multiple machines. Some don't.

Some people claim it's buggy -- I've had far more issues with HipChat just when it comes to displaying on two monitors than I have ever had with Slack.

I saw a few people complain about productivity sinks but the reality is if you want to be a part of a certain group to keep up top of what's being discussed, that's the pulse & one way to do it if you have a large amount of brain power in the room.

Meh. I'm excited.

A lot of the complaints I see in the comments center around weight of the headset & resolution. Regarding weight wouldn't it make more sense to have an overhead track installed where you live discrete, that takes the stress off the helmet?

This person seems to have it mostly correct except the wires still touch their back. It would make sense to me to have nothing touching you so you don't feel encumbered.

you mentioned seeing your shadow in your vision, what does this mean? That the way the sun was oriented compared to where you were in your fall, that you were close to the ground?
