The argument against OTP is that by securely distributing the key of the same length as your message, you ostensibly already have a secure messaging mechanism; why would you need the OTP?

Huge, if true. However, many such claims have surfaced before and turned out to be dudds.

For now, I am taking it with a spoon of salt but with an interest of any follow-ups and peer review.

I'll figure that out later.

Destructive interference?

How close is this eruption to settlements and/or telescopes?

Yes, house-level prices for the equipment. Frequency extenders up to 1.1 THz are available (in rectangular waveguide) or 220 GHz in coaxial.

I find it a little confusing that the author compares 1/f noise from the brain (electrical) with acoustic pink noise, which is a different type of wave altogether. Am I missing something or is it just a poor analogy?

Three datapoints (no launch is a datapoint too)

Having read Newports work, I feel his books are mostly in the category of books-that-could-have-been-blogposts. What are your thoughts on this?

Advanced Calculus by Woods is an oldie but goodie. Concise, but with a lot of exercises.

At this point, does the state of Twitter even matter? With a $44B dollar influx soon, what shareholder would care about the state of the social medium or Dorsey's bitcoin shenanigans? (Honest question)

Exactly. Pick your battles / hills to die on

Excellent piece. Thank you for the recommendation

The app you are referring to is called FindFace

My little trivia for the Titanic has always been that Violet Jessop was on board, surviving three accidents from sister ships: Titanic, Olympic and Brittanic!

Go read the wiki, it's amazing: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Violet_Jessop

Just to clarify some things:

- this is similar to how it works in the EU now

- depositing the final accepted author version (without journal editors' final typesetting / grammar corrections) into a publicly accessible repository seems to be within these guidelines

- open access publishing is typically much more expensive than the closed model for the researchers. Open access fees can be between several hundred and several thousand dollars, depending on the journal

- these costs, ostensibly to offset the subscription model, are now most likely to fall on the researchers (i.e., the government)

- libraries might still want the subscription to the back-catalog which would still be hugely expensive

All in all, I'm in favor of this regardless of the finances (up to a point).

It's just the first four that are mangled (maybe from last year's list or something?). But after that it seems okay again

Show HN: State-of-the-Art German Speech Recognition in C++

> As long as you have npm installed it'll work.

Exactly proving my original point.

It always annoys me when I read something like:

   To try Astro on your local machine, run npm create astro@latest in any terminal.

because it doesn't make it clear to me what to do before this command will actually do anything. No, running this command will not work in any terminal.

How the hell did they manage to trademark "Natrium"??

The perfect time to recommend Fire of Love (2022): https://imdb.com/title/tt16227014/

It a beautiful documentary with footage from the 60s-90s about a volcanist couple who embarked on a mission to understand volcanoes scientifically and (later) educate the public about their dangers. Terrific cinematography!

Edit: I now see it has 99% critics review on rotten tomatoes (88% from the audience) https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/fire_of_love

Probably referring to Indian as in India, not Native American (but I'm not sure)

> (One statistic you sometimes see is that at one point mobile homes made up 60% of total new houses - this is incorrect. At one point mobile home units were around 50% of the number of single family homes built.)

I understand this is just a footnote in the article, but could somebody explain me what the distinction is that the author is making here? I especially don't understand the italicized "number".

Awesome writeup and very topical with Running up that Hill being popularized again by season 4 of Stranger Things (on Netflix, I would also recommend the series, by the way)

Don, great reaction to those entitled bastards reaching out with negativity. Love your work man, keep it up. Npp is the first tool I install on any new pc and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

To summarize: EU citizens can vote in local elections in France. After Brexit, a Brit who lives in France was denied voting right due to purported (now confirmed) lost EU citizenship.

Meaning British citizens are officially not EU citizens anymore. (barring dual citizens)

Lol. Too broad to be meaningful
