FYI, nested virtualization has been available on GCP for at least 3 years. You have to create the instance via CLI or terraform with the parameter added. Its been awhile, but I don't think there is the option to enable it in the GCP console.

From HN comments: Some people just want to larp being a CEO

This was ana amazing watch. I was captivated. The ending was bitter sweet.

The one called "Threat Modeling", you map capabilities of the target, not it's intentions. Thanks to parallel construction they will only say that a person of interest gave them access to the group, they won't disclose they constructively know who is in the group, who joined when, and decrypted messages from cloud infrastructure

Yup! Lots of businesses have developed standard business practices to reduce the information they keep in areas of legal exposure. I.e. email systems that autodelete after 3 months.

I think the article buried the lede: Division of Correction Director Dexter Payne said 50,000 books were available via the tablets. Almost all people housed in ADC facilities have a tablet — only those in “punitive isolation” do not. The tablets are potentially free, but the content is not. Prisoners have to pay for content, of which the department of corrections collects a healthy percentage. Prisons also charge heavy fees or fines for damage to the tablets that then comes out of any money the inmate has available to them. This whole restrictions on paper books smells like a way to force inmates to have to pay for what they had for free as books as gifts from family and friends on the outside.

Scott Adams died today. I want to acknowledge something complicated. He always felt culturally like family to me. His peaks—the biting humor about corporate absurdity, the writing on systems thinking and compounding habits, the clarity about the gap between what organizations say and what they do—unquestionably made me healthier, happier, and wealthier. If you worked in tech in the 90s and 2000s, Dilbert was a shared language for everything broken about corporate life. His views, always unapologetic, became more strident over time and pushed everyone away. That also felt like family. You don’t choose family, and you don’t get to edit out the parts that shaped you before you understood what was happening. The racism and the provocations were always there, maybe, just quieter. The 2023 comments that ended Dilbert’s newspaper run were unambiguous. For Scott, like family, I’m a better person for the contribution. I hope I can represent the good things: the humor, the clarity of thought, the compounding good habits with health and money. I can avoid the ugliness—the racism, the grievance, the need to be right at any cost. Taking inventory is harder than eulogizing or denouncing. But it’s more honest. HN comment

You can tell most people don't read the article before they vote. Ddg just added a way to turn on or off ai results by default.

"Unlimited" PTO, from an employee's perspective, is an obvious trap that borders on a scam. Everyone knows that, practically speaking, there can't really be unlimited PTO. When a company says it has unlimited PTO, what it's really saying is "we won't tell you the limit". That makes taking PTO a fearful thing, which is probably the whole idea. Hacker news comment.

Who else was going to pay the tariffs? People aren't going to export to you for free or below cost.

https://briarproject.org/how-it-works/ The briar mesh is via peer to peer Bluetooth / wifi connections but it is a mesh via briar message passing [image: 347b9040-0501-4137-8f0d-1a00fdf89f7c.jpeg] In more technical terms, each forum/group/blog has a distribution graph where the nodes are subscribers and the edges are a subset of contact relationships (specifically, the subset that have chosen to reveal the subscription to each other). So if your friend group is at a concert and the internet is down you can have a forum where y'all call still communicate, with the caveat that only people in the group will mesh/proxy messages once in range.. the benefit of this is that nobody outside the group can see the message activity, if one person makes it to the internet all messages will sync and when they go back to the concert the offline members will see internet messages.

Here's the missing part behind the paywall: "Please don't get the idea that this is a book for the kind of contrarian-libertarian-blockchain-bro who would like to blow the lid off all that green hype, man. Fressoz firmly believes we're in the midst of a global climate breakdown. But, if we flash back just a year or two, the dominant progressive narrative maintained that—given enough international cooperation, good will, and younger-generation energy—we could lick the world's environmental problems through innovation and something called the "energy transition." This was backed up by statistics showing that people were switching to electric cars, and that wind, solar, and other renewables were accounting for an increasing proportion of energy generation. This Polyanna discourse still pervades a certain kind of discourse—some people call it "solutionism," or the "California ideology"—that holds that once the little Trumpist blip is over, we'll get back to building a better future by ramping up the green economy and coming up with as-yet-uninnovated innovations that will solve all our problems (cold fusion? solar radiation modification?) Fressoz splashes a bucket of well-chilled Evian over that Sunkist La-La land dreck. His main thesis is that there is no energy transition, and there never was one. "

Ok, so instead of one two minute unskippable ad, there will be 24 5 second skippable ads (after 5 seconds)

Not just hsbc lots of safenet settings have a blacklist of apps they won't run with .. It can be avoided by installing those blacklist apps in different accounts profiles or private space Basically safenet let's apps say they won't run if anything is side loaded or instead with a third party app store Maybe this is their long term plan to kill other apps stores... Let banking apps be the bad guy by volunteering for a high "safety net" setting
