Obviously you CAN. Of course it wont be perfect but most of time it should be fine. In some situation its still better than a driver using phone while driving a car that has no self driving capability whatsover, which many people do that right now.

Waiting until the technology is perfect will take a long time.

I have read the entire judgement and beside the fact you can not register the name of a country, he had not also the right to register a trademark from the beginning.
Tangential to the core issue, but seems kinda weird to me that he claims he bought it from web.com in 1994 and he’s had the domain for 24 years when web.com has only existed for 19. A quick Wikipedia search would’ve clearly shown this. Further, in 1994, there’s only one place he could’ve registered this domain as it wasn’t decentralized until the late 90s.

I guess Ars was sleeping at the wheel when posting this.
Not only that, it costs many years and billions more to build the cadre of expertise it takes to run the fab at more than zero yield, and you also need billions more invested in making huge silicon monocrystals and incredibly pure chemicals. Chips are a strategic technology, though parts of that ecosystem have become more of a commodity, it's still not the sort of thing where Russia, say, could build more than a few trailing edge chips.
True, i've been doing this shit several times in my life now, from all ends - starting with being 'offshore labor' and ending with being a CTO - all it resonates well with my feelings.

Worst part of it is that, after many years doing this, you get cynical. You starts to feel like every company is a bunch of fools burning money of another bunch of even bigger fools, and let it happen as long as money ends in my pocket.

Right now i don't think i can even think of doing coding as some 'real' thing, which is, done with a real intention of succeeding and bringing in revenue.
It's just money we owe ourselves

Not quite true: it’s the money we owe our future selves.

So you can arrive in the future and find that the pension that should have been waiting for you there was borrowed by past-people and they never paid it back. And you can’t go back in time to demand it back.
My main problem with nethack is the over-reliance on "spoilers" if you don't want to figure out every (sometimes rather non-obvious) mechanics in the game through trial-and-error. It's really hard to get into nethack if you're not willing to spoiler yourself, and once you start reading spoilers it's hard to know when to stop if you don't want to spoil the fun. On top of that trial-and-error in a game with perma-death can quickly become discouraging as you die stupidly because you didn't know that you couldn't levitate above a sink for some reason.

Dungeon Crawl on the other hand is a lot friendlier, in general the mechanics are well explained and you know what to expect and how things work. Contrast for instance the curse mechanic between nethack[1] and DCSS[2]. Nethack is obviously a lot more intricate but good luck figuring out all of that on your own, and good luck finishing the game if you haven't figured out most of that.

The courts, in the USA, have found that domain names are not property, instead they are like telephone numbers:

----------------

The court found that under the California tariffs, rules, and regulations applicable to public utilities, and under the terms of the contracts, the debtors had no “proprietary right in the number.”

https://www.lexology.com/library/detail.aspx?g=0a84b472-c89f...

Also:

...under Virginia law, the user of a telephone number or domain name does not have a property interest in that phone number or domain name.

-------------------

Governments have the right to assign to themselves any telephone number they wish, and reserve ranges of phone numbers for themselves, therefore it makes sense that they can do the same to domain names.

If people felt strongly about this issue, the law could be changed, but as of right now, under current law, this does not appear to be theft.

It's an interesting question. For me, the difference is that obscurity strategies are ad-hoc and unproven and perhaps unprovable. We should be able to make a strong argument that our systems have particular security properties, such as asymmetric costs.

So, asking how much entropy is "obscurity" and how much is "security" is the wrong question. If you can measure the amount of entropy, you're already in the "security" sphere, and you're talking about security and insecurity.

For instance, if you invent your own passwords rather than using a password generator, and you use an ad-hoc strategy without employing any sort of reasoning about how much entropy you're generating, I think it is fair to say you're employing obscurity. For the initiated, it is not reasonable to expect this strategy to do better than "hunter2". "Security", in this case, would be using a password generator or some other strategy that we can reasonably believe is sound.

You seem to be arguing for something provable which you can reason about mathematically, and not something ad-hoc which we cannot be certain of.

If you happen to see my response and read the whole thing, then I pose to you a second question; is creating a fake copy of your data, which you do not protect as carefully as your real data, a security or obscurity strategy? Or something else entirely?

Poor people are so often indignant - little do they know they're indignant because they are surrounded by people who think just like them. Crabs in a bucket [0]. The sad thing is - they're not upset that the system as a whole perhaps sucks - just that somebody has it better. So selfish.

When they are gifted a chance to experience something different, they can't help themselves, their indignation shines through even then! That's your post in a nutshell.

People who are happy, people who've worked their way into money, success, etc, want you to succeed too - so that you don't waste your life on petty things like 'coffee should've been free'. It is just so incredibly hard to get through to you when you're disempowered, stuck in negativity.

The Difference Between a Bubble and a Cycle
Context: I'm currently responsible for GDPR compliance within a small corner of a Very Large Company.

I'm going to avoid making a statement about GDPR as a whole or about the OP, but I will say that I don't think large companies having an advantage at this phase is "bullshit."

One specific aspect of GDPR seems a good example of this. Third party data processors. If you use various third party products that provide tracking, testing, or other shims, you're responsible for ensuring export and delete of any PII associated data that flowed to those channels as well. Now, you can say the response is "if your partner doesn't have responsive channels, you have to pull the data" to make onesself compliant, but BigCos have the implicit advantage of being able to push the other direction, and get systems/functionality built into the third party product to allow them to be supported easier.

The amount of face to face time, support, and "deep touch" I can get with third party companies when compared to prior smaller corps is very apparent to me, and I'd be lying if I said it didn't make my task of ensuring GDPR compliance easier. Whether that translates to "more power", I don't know. But it's certainly an enabler.
Youtube (another Google product!) does this and it is infuriating! The youtube iOS app is utter garbage, but the site itself is nearly unusable because of the initial-touch mistake.

A few years a ago I attended a talk given by an engineer of one of the largest American semiconductor companies. After the talk someone asked if they were able to verify that the chips they get back from the fabs are made as specified.
The answer was that they couldn‘t but that the problem was considered a serious concern and that their company invested resources into a solution.
> The average person today is far wealthier than the average person in 1950, and that's the real goal.

I'm not sure human beings really think like that. I suspect many people would be happy to freeze the economy at its current size, so long as they stay near the top. How many people would swap places for a historical monarch, even when most such monarchs didn't have a flushing toilet?

I think relative status looms large in many peoples minds.

There needs to be a reckoning about what the goals of economic control are, because the current thought, "as long as it's going up for most people", doesn't seem to square with what people actually feel.
Ideas don't matter much. As you've noted, most have been made many times. Do something you'd enjoy to work on and do it differently. Don't use the same tools for example.

Network Solutions was started in 1994, and was later bought by Web.com. It is correct to say that he got a domain name from a registrar which is now the property of Web.com.
The grandparent comment is right. I am not going to mess with default browser settings, and almost nobody is.
Another simple way to get started is to make no-knead sourdough bread that is cooked in a Dutch oven. I used to make that regularly (before quitting all flours and wheat), and it's great.

You use less starter and let it rise longer. Then bake it in the Dutch oven the next day without kneading it.

That relied on USA trademark law. Applied to the case mentioned in the above article, the government of France can seize France.com. The principle behind trademark disputes is, would a similar name cause confusion in the market place? The French government can make the case that it would be confusing if a private citizen was allowed to possess France.com. As a principle, "First come first served" has never won a case against trademark law. Or rather, the "first come first served" applies to whoever filed for the trademark, not the domain name. Put another way, trademark beats domain name.
Even if so, we live in the short term (and, define "short term": minutes, months, years, decades?) and among the inefficiencies localized in most of the possible "locations" if not all of them, and I'd rather have regulation protect me than wait an indefinite amount of time until some good-willing entreprise takes initiative, and then another indefinite amount of time until they are successful, and then another indefinite amount of time the big players adapt or die, a process which when listed like this seems to me to be at most as efficient as wishing upon a star.

What "market" is is a big bunch of entities trying to maximise the output and minimise the input (in a large large majority of cases). Everything else is a side effect. In order to impose upon those entities anything, the customer base needs to be diverse enough to include potential opposers to the company's policy, and the number of the opposers who decide to boycott or move away should be large enough that such action significantly affects the company's margins. And that's not so easy to happen, especially if the bad the "big players" are doing does not directly affect the customers (e.g. saying "guns are murderous and destructive" will not affect the gun owners all that much, or "your pesticides kill bees" the pesticide users, no?) and thus the vigilance of the market is triply-restricted: by time it takes to produce effects, by the amount of opposition actors it requires, and by the nature of commerce. Thus, it can not produce timely change, requires and is thus fallible to lots of rhetoric, and is only maybe-efficient in a small set of industries and cases.
Quite so. You can say "there is no magical technology for bridging air gaps." Unless you include suitcases full of money to compromise the people traversing those air gaps. Beyond being reasonably certain the NSA can't break strong encryption to access data at rest in situations where the key can't be bought, this is some comfort, but not a lot of comfort.
Not all courts, IIRC. The Virginia case was based on VA state law. The 9th and 2nd rules that phone numbers are not assets...so maybe domains are like phone numbers?

Ask HN: How do you bootstrap/start writing data-science/ML applications?
Let's say you want to do some data analysis and predictive modeling on HackerNews or Reddit data. How do you go about structuring the acquisition of data?

Do you write plain scripts in Python that will save JSON or CSV? And keep writing one script for each step of the "ETL"?

What kind of data store do you use to test this out locally on your system? How do you then convert it into something that can be put on production?

Right now, I'm aware of the fact that I can get away by writing simple scripts or do my work in Jupyter notebook. However, how do you structure projects once you know that it will be put into production at some point?

To ask my question more concisely, how do you "bootstrap" a new data science or machine learning project?
I used to drink a cup of coffee at 7PM every day and regularly stay up until 2AM - 4AM. Now, my partner is a huge night owl and I work regular daytime hours, so the morning is the time I enjoy to myself. I also drink significantly less caffeine (2 cups of black tea max vs 6+ cups of coffee). I feel less crazy in general these days and like the time I have to myself in the mornings. I still don't like having to be someplace really early and usually get to work around 9:30AM. Even if I wake up early I usually do a little house work and take my time getting ready.
great tip on the Dutch oven, I graduated from there to making freeform/traditional sourdoughs and loved making both, really loved it. and while i didn't give up wheat or anything I did just end up with a ton of bread all the time which isn't good long term for me so mostly had to give it up.

So my take on it is that your only job as a startup if you don't already have product/market fit is to find it. And then, if you have it, you focus on growing.

Then, quite simply, your options are a) Find product/market or b) Quit.

To decide between a) or b), try to think how close you are to getting it. Do you have a few users that love your product but the pricing is wrong? Did you find something interesting in the market that you think you can compete on but didn't execute well-enough?

I would say if you lost your passion and don't think you've got something interesting enough to get a few users to love your product, then it's time to quit and (maybe) start over on a fresh idea. If on the other side you're still passionate about the space and think you're onto something, then keep trying.

I’ll bite. I haven’t done huge dives into it, but I’ve definitely gone through the Learn F# interactive tutorial and spent some time working through some Scala lessons a while ago. I would love to be doing more FP work just because of the testimonials of others in how it has improved their craft.

The most difficult thing thus far has been that I haven’t seen where many of the more interesting FP concepts fit into my daily programming efforts. I am most frequently working on LOB applications, mobile apps, or backend APIs. It’s very much the world of take a model, do something to it, and return it. I know that it comes with practice, but often times the cool chaining and currying concepts, FP modifiers (except for map and a couple other simple functions) just don’t seem to apply when I think about the problems I’m trying to solve. The tutorials often lack any real-world examples, focusing more on math problems or “not real data” uses.

That being said, one of the biggest things that I have taken away is the idea that, given the same inputs a function should always return the same outputs, and be free of outside state. That has definitely helped me improve my coding.
