And there are not that many indications that we are moving towards that direction or we can even ever have. I guess that sort of idealism might have existed in the late 40s immediately after the UN was established but it never had a chance.

External or internal (which seems rarely feasible unless the government is highly incompetent) regime change realistically is the only thing that worked.

That is because your provider is nice and gives you a static pre-fix. Around here, all the providers give dynamic IPv6 pre-fixes to prevent people from running servers. This is partially why some see Ipv6 as a advantage, and others see it as nothing but trouble. We still have the whole Ipv4 CGNAT disadvantage, with the added complexity of Ipv6 on top.

>Ever tried to call someone over the internet? Well, now you need a publicly reachable device.

Uhh... Is this the '90s? People don't type in IP addresses (or phone numbers, back in the day) to connect with other people anymore. They connect to a common, publicly reachable server that deals with peers being behind NAT.

This was true in 2010. I use to have a USB wifi adapter that was specifically meant to make sure linux would always work. I lost that adapter years ago.

I can't remember the last time I tried a distro that didn't just work on a random computer with a random wifi but it has been several years now.

Nvidia cards on the other hand...last year I had to try about 10 distros before I found something that wasn't a huge pain in the ass.

> How much oil did we get out of the deal?

Apparently a lot.

> The 2003 Iraq War, initiated as a U.S. unilateral action, has also been viewed through the lens of economic interests, particularly oil access. Following the conflict, significant American business opportunities arose, notably through contracts with oil companies to exploit Iraqi oil fields, marking the end of Iraq’s long-standing oil nationalization policy. Technological advancements were another key economic byproduct of these wars; innovations developed for military use often transitioned into civilian applications, influencing various sectors.

> Additionally, a trend towards privatization emerged, as private firms undertook roles traditionally held by the military, further intertwining the defense industry with the economy. This shift raised ethical concerns and sparked debate regarding the implications of privatizing military functions. Overall, the Iraq wars illustrate the complex intersection of military action, resource control, and economic interests within American foreign policy.

Thats probably true, but trump also tried to rig an election, so its not really up to him to unilaterally decide is it? Especially as hes bumchums with putin who shocker, rigs election, killed hundreds of thousands of his own people invading other countries.

Korea was a UN action, not US unilateral. but alos hugely costly in everyone's lives

If we have IPv4 address 1.2.3.4, and the hypothetical IPv4+ adds 1.2.3.4.1.2.3.4 (or longer), how would a IPv4-only router handle 1.2.3.4.1.2.3.4? If an IPv4-only host or application gets a DNS response with 1.2.3.4.1.2.3.4, how is it supposed to use it?

As I see it, the transition mechanism for some IPv4+ that 'only' has longer addresses is exactly the same as for IPv6: new code paths that use new data structures, with a gradual rollout with tech refreshes and code updates where hosts slowly go from IPv4-only to IPv4-and-IPv4+ at different rates in different organizations.

If you think it's somehow different, can you explain how it is so? What proposal available (especially when IPng was being decided on in the 1990s) would have allowed for a transition that is different than the one described above (gradual, uncoördinated rollout)?

> Invading countries to annex them is not even that bad if you give full citizen rights to their population.

How is that relevant to Russia's invasion of Ukraine? Whenever Russia takes territory they're filling mass graves with raped Ukrainian civilians.

American forces too have committed innumerable atrocities, and there is no forgiving that, but it doesn't support the premise above that Russia is in some way cleaner.

Colombian here. Maduro wasn't the leader of a country; he lost the elections and became a cruel dictator. He led a regime that murdered, tortured, and disappeared thousands of people, turning Venezuela into a narco-state run by the ELN and other paramilitary groups. It may not have worked in other areas, but the US intervention in Panama, which resulted in the capture of another dictator, Noriega, transformed Panama into the fastest-growing economy in Latin America (6% average annual growth). Poverty fell by 60%, and today it's a very prosperous country. I can assure that there will be massive celebrations today by all our Venezuelan brothers and sisters living in Latin America.

Edit: I just discovered that Noriega was also captured on January 3rd.

How would they make it mandatory, though? The only way I can think of making it mandatory would be if the phone bricks itself when the subscription ends. Or if you just lease the phone and the lease includes updates.

It seems like the best approach would be to just include the cost of updates in the price of the phone, which I guess is what every other phone maker does.

>"That's obviously not credible, you can't profitably extract Venezuelan crude without US involvement. There's simply nobody else with the capabilities to do so. Venezuelan oil is particularly difficult to get out of the ground, it's tremendously difficult to extract profitably"

I see that you do not manage your finances properly. Lemme take over.

Besides I do not believe this "nobody else" BS. If there is a need and money to be made they will find someone with the tech or deep enough pockets to develop it.
Show HN: AGent Based Access Control Agbac for AI Agents and IAM
by shawnreilly | 2026-01-03 13:35:26+00:00
Today I am releasing AGent Based Access Control (AGBAC) under Apache 2.0. This is a new Access Control Security Specification that introduces the concept of dual-subject authentication. Included is AGBAC-Min, which allows you to implement agent and human aware authentication today (right now!) with your existing IAM Solution!

https://github.com/kahalewai/agbac

AI agents broke one of the oldest assumptions in identity. For as long as I can remember, IAM has assumed a simple model: One action → one subject → one authorization decision. That worked when only humans were accessing things. But AI agents changed everything. So now we an evolution of Access Control Models (RBAC, PBAC, ABAC, now AGBAC).

When an AI agent acts on behalf of a human, there are two identities involved: The agent executing the request and the human whose authority triggered it. From a security standpoint, the correct rule becomes obvious: An action should only be allowed if both the agent and the human are authorized to perform it. Not agent or human. Agent and human.

The good news? This is now solved. And it works with your existing IAM solution protecting your enterprise today. Do you want to start enforcing (and logging) both agent and human authorization today? Or move one step closer to Zero Trust alignment within AI agent architectures? Check out AGBAC and drop a star if you think this is awesome!

My understanding (for which I can't give you a citation) is that a tiny fraction of Google visitors are randomly chosen to try to reach IPv6 servers and measure what happens.

Because of Happy Eyeballs if you measure whether your users did use IPv6 you don't find out whether they could have done so, and so your results will be thrown off by happenstance.

>> Nothing good comes from the US intervening in foreign affairs.

Idk, I sure prefer Germany / Japan circa 2026 to Germany / Japan circa 1936.

The last time the US did something similar was in Panama in 1989, and that country seems to be a thriving democracy now.

Too early to know how this will play out, but things are more nuanced than you're suggesting.

We'll see about Venezuela, it's early to say. In Ukraine, a short conflict would have been better than a prolonged one, and in case of annexed territories, the status and civil rights of annexed populations should have been the focus of any peace agreement. The territory doesn't care who owns it, it's the people that suffer.

For example, the Israeli occupation and progressive annexation of Palestine is especially criminal because they have no intention of including the native population in their ethno-state- it's an annexation with ethnic cleansing or, if needed, genocide.

Two wrongs don’t make a right.

Regardless of your opinion on Maduro, you can still acknowledge that the head of a sovereign state being captured in an unannounced/unnamed military operation by a superpower is wrong from a principled standpoint, and that it’s destabilising a country with 30+ million people if not the entire region.

>There is going to be a lot of debate over whether this specific operation was legal

Or maybe there wouldn't be any debate and people will move on to the next bombastic thing he does. Populists get away with everything by simply not engaging, people get tired and seek new entertainment and there's no actual checks and balances beyond the decency. When someone has no claim of decency, they are untouchable. No one will ever arrest them, stop them or deny them anything because they can just replace those who do not obey. Maduro, Trump, Putin, Erdogan, Orban and many others are made from the same cloth.

Reagan something very similar twice and it worked out reasonably(ish) fine.

Of course Venesuela isn't that similar to Panama or Granada in various ways. Given the massive amounts of internal issues, and insanely high levels of crime/murder removing the government and washing your hands might turn it into something like Haiti...

Fundamentally on the moral level removing oppressive tyrants like Sadam, Maduro, Gaddafi etc. is the right thing to do. Of course nobody ever figured out how to prevent the situation from getting even worse in the aftermath..

That is not a reason why there is a war. The Ukrainian war is an existential one, a continuation of multiple acts of genocide performed by russians for centuries.

That is a big difference between war in Ukraine and war in Iraq or Venezuela.

Russia has unlimited objectives: destroy Ukrainian identity and sovereignty. Annex the country.

While USA has limited objectives, like to overthrow the government.

Looks cool! I don't understand the negativity here. If you really think a general Python script can be easily written to solve this problem, I invite you to actually try and write that script.

I actually just vibed a hyper-specific version of a similar tool for myself a couple weeks ago, mostly just for fun to see if I (or Claude) could. Took about an hour, and it's now able to automate the spreadsheet process my girlfriend and I use each month to split certain expenses. Saves us each ~15 minutes weekly.

I'm loving the ability LLMs provide to both build personal software so rapidly, as well as solve these kinds of fuzzier natural language problem spaces so relatively easily.

Side note: the state of consumer transaction reporting is absolute garbage. There should really be more metadata mandated by consumer protection regs or something. The fact that this is a hard problem in the first place feels very dumb.

> Exactly. IPv6 was developed in the ivory towers where it was still assumed that everyone wanted to be a full participant of the internet.

IPv6 was developed in the open on mailing lists that anyone could subscribe to:

The criteria presented here were culled from several sources,
including "IP Version 7" [1], "IESG Deliberations on Routing and
Addressing" [2], "Towards the Future Internet Architecture" [3], the
IPng Requirements BOF held at the Washington D.C. IETF Meeting in
December of 1992, the IPng Working Group meeting at the Seattle IETF
meeting in March 1994, the discussions held on the Big-Internet
mailing list (big-internet-at-munnari.oz.au, send requests to join to
big-internet-request-at-munnari.oz.au), discussions with the IPng Area
Directors and Directorate, and the mailing lists devoted to the
individual IPng efforts.

* https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc1726

Just like all current IETF discussions are in the open and free for all to participate. If you don't like the direction things are going in participate: as Gandhi did (not) say, “Be the change you want to see in the world.”

One of the co-authors on that RFC worked at BBN: you know, the folks that actually built the first the routers (IMPs) that created the ARPA/Internet in the first place. I would hazard to guess they have know something about network operations.

Disagree, especially with the hoops that users and developers have to jump through to deal with (CG-)NAT:

> [Residential customers] don't care about engineering, but they sure do create support tickets about broken P2P applications, such as Xbox/PS gaming applications, broken VoIP in gaming lobbies, failure of SIP client to punch through etc. All these problems don't exist on native routed (and static) IPv6.

Yeah it’s surprising how little justification there’s been for this. As a well-read US citizen, I don’t actually know why we did this.

Was it for oil? Socialism bad? To stop drugs? I think you latter is the narrative I’m most familiar with.

Immigration would be the most logical, since this administration and political base care a lot about that, but I don’t think they’ve drawn a clear line between economic success and emigration. Logic isn’t exactly a cornerstone for these idiots.

I’m guessing we did it to flex and distract from our own economy, but usually there is at least some pushed narrative for why America did the thing?

In IPv6, this is spelled ::ff00:a.b.c.d

It didn’t speed up adoption and people then tried most of the other solutions people are going to suggest for IPv4+. Want the IPv4 address as the network address instead? That’s 2002:a.b.c.d/48 - many ISPs didn’t deploy that either
