I’m sorry, I did not mean to ask for anything you were unwilling to do; your initial text did not give the impression that you were unwilling to name names, it just lacked details or links – on the contrary, you even named “my extensions to the clojure time library”, which could conceivably be used by somebody to look up said details, so I did not see anything to indicate you wanted to avoid “naming names”.

Certainly, nobody can force you to name names if you don’t want to, but vague accusations (such as yours) towards a community deserves to at least be questioned and probed for evidence. Some people would say to not say anything which you’re not prepared to back up with evidence, but I’m not sure I would go that far. Unsubstantiated claims have some value if presented carefully and tactfully. But you appeared to be neither; you seemed to make sweeping generalizations (while carefully not literally doing it), but not giving examples or even details. This style is a non-working strategy for effecting change, which I would assume to be the goal of us all.

> Add to that that your tone disinclines me to believe you're actually asking in good faith

I’m sorry to hear that; I did not mean to give such an impression. I would certainly say that I believe myself to be acting in good faith, such as it is; my goal is to give people what I believe to be a reasonably accurate picture of what kind of treatment they can expect from contributing to FLOSS, to counter the view they might get from your initial comment.

In conclusion: There is a good possibility that you were merely unlucky, either with individual authors or toxic projects. That is simply a slightly more unlikely explanation than the simplest one which I gave. Please don’t be offended by it; I actually only offered it as a motivation for you to disprove it by giving us examples, so we might see for ourselves, and I fully expected you to simply give a few links to end the matter. Since you won’t (for reasons I fully accept), the discussion took an unexpectedly unproductive turn, and I am sorry for that. I never accounted for the possibility of you to not wanting to give details or references, but I should have.

“So how does Tesla actually do on a per-vehicle basis? To that, we turn to the quarterly reports. Before Model 3 production became significant — aka, just S and X sales — Tesla was earning a 25% non-GAAP margin / 27,9% GAAP margin in their automotive division. These are very healthy margins. As Model 3 production ramped up — and famously encountered difficulty — Tesla’s gross margins fell, bottoming out at 13,8% non-GAAP and 18,3% GAAP, before rising back to 18,8% non-GAAP and 19,7% margin.”

This is one of my favorite “features” of Vue. The system is built on straightforward JavaScript such that it works equally well in the simple, old way of just including a script tag and having all your code in the DOM, as it does with all the bells and whistles of modern build systems.

You can use a plain Vue object as a message bus, event emitter, or a simple reactive data container without any template or visual logic involved. It’s a damned useful primitive to add to your toolbox.

I’ve found that Vue’s documentation and api are clear, consistent, and well-reasoned. The core system is a set of primitives that cover about everything you would want in a web app, you can easily pick and choose just the pieces you want but they also work perfectly in the fashion of a much heavier framework if you decide to use them all together.

This is about the best open source project I’ve ever used. Highly recommended for anyone who is curious about it, and hats off to Evan You and the whole team for what they’ve built.

First thought when I saw "React" and "OS" together was "surely that can't be what it sounds like it might be."

For others for whom this is new, from wikipedia[0]:

ReactOS is a free and open-source operating system for x86/x64 personal computers
intended to be binary-compatible with computer programs and device drivers made
for Windows Server 2003.

Development began in 1996, as a Windows 95 clone project, and was continued as
ReactOS in 1998, with the incremental addition of features of later Windows versions.
ReactOS has been noted as a potential open-source drop-in replacement for Windows and
for its information on undocumented Windows APIs. As formerly stated on the official
website:

> The main goal of the ReactOS project is to provide an operating system which is
> binary compatible with Windows such that people accustomed to the familiar user
> interface of Windows would find using ReactOS straightforward. The ultimate goal of
> ReactOS is to allow you to remove Windows and install ReactOS without the end user
> noticing the change.

I went to the Pasteur institute for a diagnosis (which is basically the NASA of french biology) and saw a specialist in tropical diseases there.

The doctors nicely explained to me that the mix of Atovaquone–Proguanil does attack the parasite in the liver, not just in the blood cell, and that they had protocols to cure it.

Based on my limited knowledge of you from your HN posts and your history in corporate america, you’d be a great fit for a Chief Of Staff role, or any other executive role where you’re unblocking progress through mediating relationships (internally) and partnerships (externally).
While this is certainly good to get started, it’s definitely worth transitioning to a build-based process if for no other reason that components ran through vue-loader or vueify gets precompiled into render functions, so you get both speed and file size savings. This is a great guide for those investigating different options or those not comfortable with Webpack though.

All our new front end stuff uses Vue.js now, and we’ve been very happy with it. No more unmaintable jQuery nightmares and much greater reusability, which goes even further when you throw renderless components into the mix.

It does have one or two rough spots; for example passing events up more than two levels gets messy quickly unless you use Vuex (sometimes overkill) or a global event bus (works but feels quite hacky), but by and large it’s a very nice library, and certainly seems easier to get started with than something like React.

I'm referring to the practice of eating breaded chicken ("nuggets" and/or "fingers"/"tenders") with copious amounts of ketchup.

I think a lot of people have a blindspot to the nutrition of condiments, they view it as something neutral like a little bit of black pepper. Or in the specific case of ketchup, they think it counts as a vegetable. But the truth is ketchup is basically just a bunch of sugar. For the same volume it has something like half the calories of maple syrup. You wouldn't scarf down half a cup of maple syrup with your dinner, but I've seen people practically drink the equivalent in ketchup. I doubt it's healthy no matter how active you are.

After some thought I agree with you that this can work, if you have encrypted DNS and DNSSEC in play. I am of course not a world-renowned expert so maybe we both overlooked something.

Two small problems I will mention, one of which I'm sure you already know: First, encrypted DNS and DNSSEC are not yet widely deployed, so this isn't the silver bullet many people expected of Encrypted SNI.

Second, for an endpoint which has many unrelated names and certificates - which is the case where encrypted SNI is gaining us a clear security benefit given our packets must have a plaintext IP destination - now they need to try every possible private key to see if they can open our encrypted SNI. This might be a very considerable burden.

Tracking Planes with RTL-SDR, Apache Kafka, KSQL, Kibana and a Raspberry Pi
FINALLY, someone who had the same idea as me. I've actively looked for ways to do something like this and even considered setting something like this up in a quick and dirty way (by abusing X forwarding over the internet across devices; probably the closest I'll get to making this system work without modifying every program on my computer).

The sheer inefficiency of getting my email on my phone, laptop, PC and tablet across several apps without any of them communicating between them is driving me mad.

I have an overpowered gaming machine in my room and a slow, old Samsung tablet near my bed. If I want to read something in bed, I'll have to suffer through the slow Chrome browser with all of its lag and lack of hardware accelerated decoding while there's a machine with incredible graphical power available _right there_. I'd love to turn my tablet into a thin client for my PC, but that requires a mix of slow or unstable remote desktop apps.

In my mind, this concept would also have other devices help with the workload. For example, when my server is busy running compilers, my laptop can kick in and help out with some of the work by doing the Javascript for my tablet. This makes the work more complicated, but combines the power of my collection of personal devices into a single platform.

I really hope someone or some company can help the world move this way. It's been done before in part back when thin clients were the latest hit and after the last few years, responsive design has been normalized to the point combined systems like these have a real chance of becoming the next thing in computing.

Sadly, I fear the moment this becomes popular the general population will just pick a cloud-based solution so they don't need to set up an application server, which gives companies like Amazon and Google even more power and data then they already have.

Clearly triggered by the word "evolution" this tweet has a huge number of replies that are clearly from 'bots.

Surely twitter can start to solve this problem? It can't be hard to set up "honeypots" to lure 'bots and effectively hell-ban them, so since it would appear easy then either:

* It's harder than it seems, or;

* Twitter doesn't care.

Will this problem finally kill off Twitter? Perhaps no one will really care ...

I've seen sources for less cannabis, but I'm skeptical that the proportion of opioid/prescription medication abuse is down. Furthermore there is also the very serious issue of adderrall abuse, which is very common, and doubtlessly related the issue of modern social expectations forced on kids.

Clarifications on the Incapsula Redis security report
This makes sense. I'm not sure how I feel about it, right off.

Are you asserting this is the majority of it? Or just a large portion? Other reasons I could see: a) It is easier to try and reimplement something than to try and build a bridge between old and new. b) Personal preference convinces people their choice in an implementation detail matters. (I mean, it definitely matters at a personal level. But to the end customer? Do they even know?) c) tooling is often very monoculture focused. (Though, this really just goes back to difficulty.)
Lattice should embrace Project IceStorm and give Clifford millions of dollars and unlimited support, these open-source tools really set them apart in the FPGA world.
I'm not qualified to challenge Tomer Ashur's analysis of Speck and Simon, and I don't think ISO has any business standardizing those algorithms, so Ashur and I reach the same conclusion about the NSA ciphers.

But I think Ashur is overstating his case.

Ashur repeatedly alludes to the potential for backdoors in Simon and Speck, but never really engages that subject in any detail. That's unsurprising, because the NSA ciphers are both extremely simple, streamlined block cipher designs. There isn't a lot of room in them to insert a "backdoor". Ashur notes that these ciphers were sponsored by the same person that sponsored Dual EC. But Dual EC was self-evidently compatible with backdoors (that was, weirdly, a reason some people --- myself included! I was wrong! --- thought it couldn't be --- the tradecraft was just too clumsy). Dual EC is a PKRNG; embedded in the design is a public key for which we were expected to trust no private key was known. You can't really say that about Speck, or even Simon with its U, V, and W matrices.

Could you deliberately weaken something pretty close to a trivial ARX cipher? I'm sure you could. But NSA doesn't want arbitrary weaknesses; it wants NOBUS backdoors, where it gets cryptographic protection for its own access. It's hard to see how you'd get there with a design as simple as Simon's.

As with previous NSA cipher debates, Ashur takes NSA to task for low security margins. Why so few rounds? Why such simplistic designs? Well, that should be easy to answer: Simon and Speck are "lightweight" ciphers intended for embedded designs. They come with variants with 32-bit block sizes! This also addresses a concern I saw on this HN thread, that NSA was trying to surreptitiously replace AES with a breakable cipher. No, they're not. Even if these had been standardized, you shouldn't be using them; they have a highly specific purpose.

I think the background to this drama is mostly political. I get the sense that NSA has never really complied with the norms of academic cryptography (they're openly derisive of it). Standards groups have, in the past, given some deference to NSA's "alternative norms". That ended with Dual EC, and Simon and Speck are the first post-Dual EC ciphers where NSA is being told they're going to have to follow academic cryptography's norms. Good!

But I'd be careful reaching any conclusions past that.

Corrections welcome!
it's still better as microg allows you to tunnel all your communications through tor, and only sends a limited subset of data about your device to google. of course, that won't help you if you're using gmail, google maps, and google now. but you're only using non-google apps and want some google functionality (ie. push notification on signal), it's still better than using google play services.

The downside is that being "more like computers" usually means "more complicated". iPads on iOS 11 have gotten so overloaded with gestures and other crap that I don't think I'll buy them for personal use and relatives anymore.

In short, Apple might start buying ad spots in some of its iOS apps to promote other iOS apps.

On one hand, if there’s a chance that a small-time app maker’s product gets promoted in bigger apps without the developer having to pay, that would help App Store as the platform facilitating sustainable businesses—something it’s currently not entirely successful at.

On the other hand, though they seem to be treading carefully, depending on how it gets implemented it could damage end user’s experience. With ads on my phone I feel a little bit as if I bought a drink at a coffeeshop and yet have to listen to commercials while there.
