Also, context. None of what I wrote makes any sense under the assumption that I was talking about a 'character string protocol'.

> the advantage is that DTLS over SCTP is an internet standard that was created organically by a variety of motivated individuals and organizations. DTLS over SCTP does not require kernel encryption, and is implementable in userspace. This is similar to how TLS is implemented in userspace but uses the kernel TCP drivers.

Which is true, but obviously does not apply to SCTP over DTLS, which is what you were talking about in your previous post.

> There is no reason to replace something that works, with something that is exactly the same, except for the fact it's invented by Google.

Well, true. Which is why it is relevant that QUIC is not exactly the same, as I have explained a dozen times now.

> You claim QUIC is encrypted. It is not. QUIC is a transport protocol and transport protocols need their headers to be inspectable to provide good routing, etc. The payloads are encrypted, like any other transport protocol.

Routing happens at the IP layer, so, no, a transport protocol does not need to be inspectable. And in fact it is an explicit design goal of QUIC to minimize what is inspectable. Which is why it is essentially uninspectable.

All that is inspectable is a connection ID and a packet sequence number. The sequence number doesn't really tell you anything as it is not even a sequence number of payload segments, but only of transport packets (so retransmits get new sequence numbers). The connection ID tells you which packets form a connection ... but then there is essentially one connection between two endpoints, so nothing to see there either that isn't obvious from the network layer anyway.

But none of the flow control machinery is inspectable by the network, and even the unencrypted header fields are still authenticated so as to prevent any meddling by middle boxes. Also, you know, you can read all of this in the specification, maybe that'd be better than removing more doubt?

I don't think their writing is bad. My issue is not so much what they write, but rather how a lot of people end up interpreting it. Many will use such writing to vilify whites. OTOH there are plenty of whites who uses any writing about say coloreds to do the same. People in general are eager to create simplified narratives and blame the other guys.

> Do you have some references that back this up? I don't dispute it, just curious.

I would say it is a logical conclusion from reading history. India and Africa was already progressing at a certain pace and was several hundred years behind Europe in development.

What has been observed through most of history is that most countries progress by importing ideas from other rather than by inventing it themselves.

Africa e.g. has very little coastline and rivers relative to landmass. That makes water based transport mostly inaccessible. Labor specialization and mass production relies on that. Industrialization was thus highly unlikely to occur in Africa spontaneously. Adam Smith remarked this over 300 years ago.

The founder of modern Singapore remarked that the most important technology for their development was air condition. India, Africa, South East Asia etc are simply too hot places. It gives a lot more diseases, makes it harder to work and think. There are limits to how much heat the human body can dissipate. Cold climates are thus more practical for working as long as you have suitable means of providing heating.

Until the invention of air condition, the southern states of the US were far more backwards. Air condition led to a surge in people moving south.

In short India, Africa etc had a lot of natural barriers to development which meant they were always going to be far behind Europe. European invasion gave a way of leapfrogging many of these disadvantages.

> Yet, critical information is passed to these computers via a non digital communications channel involving people trying to exchange crucial bits of information over a badly congested, low quality radio channel with limited range.

This is really arguable.

People always go on about how voice radio communication on a shared channel is from the Stone Age, but what’s better, and why, and can you prove it?

I feel like people drastically underestimate the degree to which the current radio system succeeds in providing situational awareness. We are wired to processs and respond to input from human voices extremely quickly and intuitively with lots of nuance, and our visual and tactile systems are pretty well saturated with information while flying.

What’s your superior suggestion? Saying “computers” or “automation” is going to have to address the fact that those things have some issues as well.

Perhaps it is, but the author's argument appears to be that corporate virtue signalling is bad because it is hypocritical. Examples: B&J despite parent corporation's cream, Qantas vs. work rights, and though not mentioned in the article, probably the same deal for Nike.

And to be fair, there is a point there: corporations will back progressive social ideas that explicitly aren't anti-capitalist.
Anyone with a working nose cannot be really surprised about that, especially w.r.t. ABS printing. There's a reason why things that burn/melt things usually have an exhaust of some kind. I'm sure those will become mandatory at some time, and rightfully so. Just like thermal runaway protection should be mandatory, and yet many cheap 3D printers don't have it either. That should actually worry people more than nano particles. I'm still amazed how many people let their printers run while no one is at home (yes, there's OctoPrint+Webcam, but last I checked that couldn't put out a fire...).

I mean, the Japaneses learned of guns later than Europeans. But "later than Europeans" means using guns in the 16th century. The 19th century (1860s) when this Japanese print was made is dated hundreds of years after Oda Nobunaga proved the efficacy of gunpowder on the Japanese Battlefield.

Why are you comparing this to the USSR, Third Reich or Nazis though? Please read some actual history before you make these hyperbolic and childish statements. I mean, do you understand why people might not want you to speak at their conference when you compare something trivial and pathetically irrelevant to a historical event that led to the death of millions of people?

> The reason progressive enhancement has fallen away is because Javascript support is now ubiquitous.

WP describes it as

> Progressive enhancement is a strategy for web design that emphasizes core webpage content first. This strategy then progressively adds more nuanced and technically rigorous layers of presentation and features on top of the content as the end-user's browser/internet connection allow. The proposed benefits of this strategy are that it allows everyone to access the basic content and functionality of a web page, using any browser or Internet connection, while also providing an enhanced version of the page to those with more advanced browser software or greater bandwidth.

It's way, way more than JS.

> They are describing how to correctly write SPAs and other webapps.

In the context of "I have a website, not a web app", and web apps that "don't break the web", i.e. also behave well as web pages. If you are suggesting anyone is building backwards to that from a web app, instead of progressive enhancement, do you know an example?

While I don't know anything about fonts stuff, successful execution of the ad tag leads to an ad request, and this happens on every page view which has the script and not just the ones where the file has fallen out of cache. So there's no additional useful information Google would get from a low cache lifetime for the script.

The script request is to a cookiless domain for performance, unlike the ad request, so there's not even much useful information on that request.

(Disclosure: I work at Google, on ads JS, and I previously worked on mod_pagespeed. Not speaking for Google, just myself.)
There are two main reasons why short caching is helpful on tag scripts:

* Faster iteration time for developers: the more often you release updates the faster you can move. If your script has a one week cache lifetime then there's not much point in daily releases and any experiments you run will be really skewed.

* Quicker response to problems: if we push out a bad update that gets past our testing, the TTL we serve it with determines how long that will stick around in browser caches.

DEFCON 19: Introduction to Tamper Evident Devices (2011) [video]
I agree. The intention appears to be that if an Org funds a biased study, then the funded academic can secretly publish a counter point to themselves. That's the best case, and it means the academic published one paper that they thought was false. So, this is a paper that accepts liars, as long as they promise to tell the truth this time?

The worst case is that the Org just cuts out the middle-man and writes the paper themselves and publishes the BS study in this journal too.

Multiple aircraft reports of UFO sightings over County Kerry, Ireland
Oda Nobunaga probably wasn't the first user of guns in Japan... but he was one of the most popular advocates of guns. Oda Nobunaga mass-produced gunpowder and muskets during the Warring States period.

All this happened in the 1500s / 16th century. Japan not only "knew about guns", but knew about their efficacy in combat after Oda Nobunaga. Yes, this was later than Europe, but we're still talking about a span of hundreds of years here.

With that being said, Japan learned of RIFLES like 50+ years after the Americans proved their usefulness in the American Revolution. The 1800s took huge steps forward with regards to war machines. Yes, gunpowder muskets existed, but Americans began to use Rifles.

Rifles means sharpshooters and snipers. They were quite bad during the American Revolution (It takes well over a minute to load a 1700s style rifle, and there's still a high-chance of misfiring...), but by the American Civil War, sharpshooters were commonplace. Once the Minie Ball allowed for faster reloading, advances in metallurgy allowed more precise mass-production, and more precise rifle-barrels lowered the chance of misfires down... well... the rest is history. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mini%C3%A9_rifle

This Japanese Print would have been written in a time where Muskets were commonplace (but very quickly falling obsolete), with Rifle and sharpshooter-based combat beginning to take a role in the battlefield... and a legend of "Full Iron Ships" that are fully immune to cannons that people probably didn't fully believe in yet.

People who think hustling is about working hard have a very different interpretation of the word than I'm used to. A hustler is supposed to be a cunning character who uses their guile and persistence to get ahead, taking advantage of the system.

...well I guess the important question is whether or not you think you have a high chance of showing up at a high rank for search terms with enough traffic, whether you have a chance of being featured prominently by amazon's recommender engine etc etc. If you want to make that work for you, you probably have to play a game like being a demand-driven content farm gaming Amazon in a way akin to how SEO tries to game Google.

Maybe there's money in it, but it's probably not the kind of content I would either want to produce or consume.

For most authors, the point of departure is probably, more idealistically, some well written content, maybe with an audience that's a bit niche, and the desire to find a way to get remunerated fairly on the effort that went into producing the content. It sounds to me like that's not really what Amazon is offering.

Show HN: Create forever running YouTube playlists
Hi HN, this is my first contribution on HN. I finally found some time again to create something new: https://streamforever.co lets you create forever running Youtube playlists that stream in sync with everyone who's watching.

I use it almost every day to listen to NPR's Tiny Desk Concerts. The continuous "stream" has a feeling of a radio station. It got inspired by 247caseyneistat.com and i wanted to have something like that but for any Youtube playlist.

This is work in progress, if you have any feedback, suggestions or feature requests, feel free to post.

I think you've missed the point. Scotland is a sub-set of Britain so that would be actually fine but...

The grand parent didn't conflate Scotland and Britain. They conflated an English Empire with the British Empire.

England is a different sub-set of the British Isles.

Much of the commodities trade in South East Asia during the period referred to was controlled by powerful Scottish firms.

To talk about an "English Empire" like that is not a "local issue" it's just factually incorrect.

Despite the routes terminating at China's firewall I don't think it's a good guess to say this was necessarily a Chinese attack. It seems like the interference of the Chinese firewall was simply a side-effect of the new path the network traffic was going. If you were perpetrating this attack it seems more advantageous to re-route the traffic and allow it continue working rather than discoverably interfering with the traffic. Plus if you were going to try to block the route, there's probably a better way of doing it.

Hi. I'm Pole. "Budżet" is pronounced with both short and long ż, depending on person and region. In most regions of Poland there is no correlation between written ż/rz and its pronounciation. This is one of the pains every polish kid has to go through and we just have to learn arbitrary rules and exceptions to where we write ż an where rz as there is no help from pronounciation. Same goes for u/ó and h/ch which also have identical pronounciation. Historically, there were differences in pronounciations but these were lost over time.
There is a movement to completely eradicate these different forms to make the language a little bit easier, especially for kids. I think the time spent on these arbitrary, unnecessary details that cannot even be heard and very rarely providing any useful information could be used on learning something with a bit more value than just sentiment.
