An example of over-engineering?

As someone who lived in Southern California for a long time I can assure you they never spent $17B on homelessness. The last time I was in San Diego they were actually shutting down homeless shelters because of the lack of funding. I would love to see someone track down the $17B.

Isn't this from 2019?

As usual, uBlock Origin with Firefox solves these issues. Although even with uBlock turned off Firefox's built-in tracking protection kills all ads except or one (for a book published by the website).

I'm guessing the only people on Hacker News who still see ads are the people in the ad industry and iOS users that hate Safari and are prevented from getting proper ad blocking in other browsers.

Why would you think so? I’m in none of those categories and still see ads.

By choice? Or are you in some other kind of constrained environment?

How do you get an ad blocker in Safari on iOS?

By searching the App Store for “ad blocker for safari”. There are loads.

I don't have any ad-blocker installed and only see 2 ads at the very beginning of the article. Not ideal but far from constantly battering. Using Chrome on Android.

As planned. awesome.

I was blessed with a badass AIX teacher. Thank you Coleman University for allowing hackers and AIX in your facility!

Is there anything about AIX that differentiates it or makes it exceptional over other UNIXes?

Not saying you're insinuating that. Just curious about AIX.

Yes, in many ways it is closer to Windows and IBM mainframe/micros semantics, even though it looks like UNIX on the surface.

For example, it uses COFF (although it also does ELF), the shared libraries also use export files, are private by default, and allow lazy loading on demand when symbols are touched for the first time, just like on Windows.

The TUI tooling to manage the OS is similar to what the other IBM platforms use.

Not much I can remember, the last time I used Aix was in 2002.

I did not read the article. I do know that stolen bikes, when I was a kid, was auctioned off by the local police.

cafelog.com ? It even has an exposed SQL query. This is actually the named owner for WordPress?? Seems dodgy.

> This is actually the named owner for WordPress??

it clearly isn't, I'm not sure how you get from "incorporates work covered by the following copyright and permission notices" to "owner for WordPress"?

I was kind of shocked to see that I was presented with a Wix logo and had to sign in using my Wix account (odd for a 103MB download I thought). Then, it did not detect node or git on my system and there was no way to specify where it is on my system (as far as I could tell). I hit the exit button and that was the end of my journey with Codux.
