We are talking about fundamental research today and about academia today.

What many problems of society is academia helping solve today? What peace have academia solved? What really big problems in international relations have academia solved today?

Peace isn't a byproduct of some academic persons phd it's a byproduct of amongst other things technology making live more livable for more and more people.

You don't need to go to the university today to learn to be an expert in international relations technology have ironically enough made it possible to learn about more or less any academic field you want without ever needing a university degree in it.

Why is Google launching a TLD and you cannot purchase it through Google Domains?

It's currently showing as "Not Supported" even though they link to Google Domains from get.app.

It's mind-boggling to think they couldn't come up with a "coming soon" blip if somebody tries to look up a Google-owned TLD on Google Domains.

Show HN: Self-delivering autonomous bicycle
I interviewed for the YC summer batch yesterday with my cofounder justincorbett for our company Weel, we did not get in. The idea is that you order an ebike on your phone, it delivers itself to you, you ride it like a regular electric bicycle, and when you are done it rides itself away autonomously.

The feedback we got during the interview and in the email last night was that the idea was interesting but the partners were not convinced that this would become something many people would want given how many other alternatives people had for last mile transportation. Basically, it's overteched for the problem.

Today we are regrouping and taking a fresh look at our own biases and views. I'd love any feedback from HN folks on the idea itself, the feedback we got from YC, and any criticisms or ideas you might have.

Perhaps the thesis, antithesis, synthesis triad? Also known as the Hegelian triad.

For the linked article, thesis = "In computing, we have pretty much come to accept the idea that smaller is better." Antithesis = "Researchers are proposing an idea to make your computer bigger." Synthesis = "They want to turn your entire house into a co-processor."

I've seen this and similar story templates show up in articles and books on writing, especially related to writing for a mass audience. They are supposed to produce narrative tension and improve reader engagement. Results vary.

> I’m not sure why this doesn’t break SNI, or exactly when or how the certificate gets switched out over to Signal’s cert and private key.

They way I understand it, the connection really _is_ using amazon’s cert+key, not Signal’s cert+key.

Is signal (the server side) using amazons’s cert+key? Not technically.

How is that a liberal fantasy? I thought the standard liberal belief is in heavy regulation of business?

Or do you mean "liberal" in the general "lots of liberty" sense and not "in the liberal political camp"?
One would hope that they've come up with a couple different algorithms, to find matches that fit those different scenarios. "Here's some people who compliment you well. Here are some people that are different. Here's someone who's basically you."

Or you copy copyrighted or patented works into your knowledge-worker output, creating liabilities for your employer which can destroy it.

Or if you generalized cheating from "copying answers" to "producing answers that look right to your employers", you get a whole range of dishonest behavior you can get away with for years (careers?) while causing serious harm to individuals, companies and communities. Using unsafe materials which superficially pass inspection, outright faking studies so that it looks like your drugs work, fingering a likely suspect in a criminal investigation and lying on the stand to get them convicted.

I'm not a fan of slippery slope arguments, but there is sometimes a logical appeal.

Toronto, Canada. A somewhat major news item recently was that a guy was killed trying to sell his truck on Craigslist. These stories have popped on and off the news for a while now.

Other than that, the pseudo anonymity makes people uncomfortable with craigslist. At least, that’s the sentiment I’ve gotten from a few people who’ve used it. Contrasting that with the feedback I’ve heard about marketplace, people just feel safer when you can creep a buyer’s profile before they show up at your house.
I still think a research project (either academic or in industry) with a hardware component would be the best way to explore radical new processor architectures that are further away from C.

- Hardware designers are conservative. They aren't likely to implement a different hardware architecture because "programmers demand it" (really?), unless there's existing research showing how it can be done and a compelling reason why customers will buy the chips.

- As a hobbyist language designer, I'm still going to target something that exists and is popular: x86, JavaScript, wasm, C, or something like that. A low-level language targeting a platform that doesn't exist isn't all that appealing. But, someone might get some good papers out of doing the research.
I realize now, that it's possible to even dynamically deliver a bytecode of a domain generating algorithm itself or pretty much any circumvention logic by embedding a tiny interpreter into the app.

Same concept taken to its extremes.
"Liberal" does indeed have tons of definitions and connotations. I would have called it more of a Libertarian fantasy (fully free, unregulated market and anti-censorship). That appellation too, though, is fraught with sometimes negative connotations; modern Libertarians in the political arena are derided as nothing more than neoconservatives hiding behind a Fawkes mask and stroking Nazi flags.

Edit for the downvoters: I'm not saying I agree with how Libertarians are seen, just reporting what I've observed. I tend to lean Libertarian on a lot of issues (freedom of movement, freedom of and from religion, live and let live, the right to be left alone, and so on), while also being a socially progressive liberal.

How to WATCH AMAZON PRIME VIDEO ON ROKU
So just to be clear because I don't think this article does a very good job of explaining the background.

Google was sued in 2010 for a privacy violation as a class action. They chose to settle and the terms of that settlement (according to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 23) were carefully reviewed by Judge Davila, an experienced federal district court judge in San Jose. He approved the settlement's terms as fair based on the transaction costs of giving small amounts of money to a large number of persons. Instead, Google would make a donation to a charity, some of which would be diverted to the attorneys who brought the case. This is called a "cy pres" award, from the latin meaning "as near as possible." Cy pres only settlements are quite rare in class action practice and are strongly disfavored.

Here are the terms, as described by the Ninth Circuit:

Of the $8.5 million settlement fund, approximately $3.2
million was set aside for attorneys’ fees, administration
costs, and incentive payments to the named plaintiffs. The
remaining $5.3 million or so was allocated to six cy pres
recipients, each of which would receive anywhere from 15 to
21% of the money, provided that they agreed “to devote the
funds to promote public awareness and education, and/or to
support research, development, and initiatives, related to
protecting privacy on the Internet.” The six recipients were
AARP, Inc.; the Berkman Center for Internet and Society at
Harvard University; Carnegie Mellon University; the Illinois
Institute of Technology Chicago-Kent College of Law
Center for Information, Society and Policy; the Stanford
Center for Internet and Society; and the World Privacy
Forum. Each of the recipients submitted a detailed proposal
for how the funds would be used to promote Internet privacy.[1]

Between preliminary approval and final approval, Ted Frank from the CEI filed an objection. (He's done this dozens of times and cy pres is a particular hobby horse of his.) When Judge Davila overruled his objection, he took an appeal. The Ninth Circuit denied that appeal, so he asked the US Supreme Court for a writ of certiorari.

The news is that this was granted. It takes four sitting US Supreme Court justices to grant cert so it doesn't necessarily mean the law is going to change, just that at least a significant minority of the court want to opine on this particular issue.

As to your specific argument reducing the implied value of a degree without impacting it's actual value is a net gain to society. Credentials independent of skill forces people to jump through extra hoops. This ends up as a huge drain on society.

Anyway you just specified an implied though not supported downside, while ignoring my point that cheating has some minor upsides. Demonstrating that cheating is a dead loss for society is not enough you need to demonstrate it has absolutely zero redeeming qualities allowing for such simple syllogistic reasoning to apply

that's not true. The recipients weren't law schools (unless AARP is now running a law school), though a couple of the lawyers on the plaintiffs' side did have some affiliation with the parent institutions of the privacy projects getting the money. In fact, one judge on the three-judge Ninth Circuit panel dissented and thought the case should be sent back down to the trial judge to have an evidentiary hearing on those connections, just to be sure the lawyers weren't profiting in some way.

A recent TIFU (Today I Fucked Up) on Reddit, depending if you believe it - I'm inclined not to, described such a situation:

https://www.reddit.com/r/tifu/comments/8g33nv/tifu_by_plagia...

They were allegedly expelled for plagiarising a 500 word essay.

> She sent me to the dean with the recommendation that I be expelled. Now the dean told me I can't graduate. I spent 4 years working on an engineering degree. I have over $100,000 in loans, and I can't be hired without my degree. My life literally vanished in the matter of 20 minutes.

The irony is they could have literally scrawled anything on the paper and flunked, but passed the year.

Whether or not this story is true, universities certainly have grounds to expel you immediately if you're caught cheating. And if you've spent $100k on a degree that you need because of professional accreditation... those are quite high stakes.
Why do you make the assumption somebody is looking down on somebody else?

In my undergraduate education, the most valuable class I had was a set of embedded systems classes. No tests, no homework, just have to build a project incrementally over the course of the quarter, and then provide schematics and documention at the end.

Exactly! Thank you for pointing this out, especially in a world of skyrocketing tuition costs.
