All these apps have nasty side effects when it comes to privacy. For example, most of them want access to system events which means they want access to your documents and other data.

No thanks.
It's available on servers. It's fast to manipulate text with. It doesn't spin up my CPU (cough electron editors). It never falls over on me. Basically it just gets out of my way.
We're broadly working towards a lot of what you're saying here at https://micro.mu. It's an incremental process which I fundamentally believe needs to begin with giving developers a new method of development guided by a framework. We're leaning more towards the android model of managing a complex runtime and providing the framework for developing in that environment.

We'll probably leverage cloud, edge, personal servers, mobile and any other device in the long term to move services to the user.

I share a lot of your ideas and philosophy. Shame it didn't come to fruition with sandstorm.

Whats amazing about any of these historically maintained subways is not how high their failure rates are, but how low

Ask any New Yorker, for a comparison. I'm told that from a possible recent high of the early 2000s it has descended into an outer circle of hell.

You have limited maintenance windows to do even routine work (point greasing, cable patching) and almost no window to do complete overhaul.

> So can't the US government just shut them down?

Yes the US government can, but the "shutdown" will make the US look just as bad as China.

I think the best approach is to shutdown all .edu, .gov and .mil access to China first.
Nor did I claim it was in reference to a moral principle. I wrote specifically about his terminological point, which is clearly incorrect, saying:

> The thing is, the current law backs their interpretation that this is sexual assault, or at the very least would be some some jurisdictions.

> Hence, his personal view that it's absolutely unreasonable is bogus.

You misread Stallman, and misread me, which makes it hard to have any sort of discussion.
Again you have your individualist lens on and you are judging the situation purely based on that moral framework.
And what is still happening in Tibet is sad, and the internet is full of angry atheists who have somehow been taught Tibet was a theocracy where monks held absolute authority and because religion is bad, China must be right.
Yeah, for me, it's "just right". Most detractors claim it's "bleeding edge". What? just because it's got something newer than Postgres 9.1 available?? (this was my argument against Debian/Ubuntu for a long time)

Totally agree that it's a great daily driver. It has EVERYTHING!
I used to do the same exact thing.

At some point, though, I noticed that "something" [0] still managed to "get out".

After running some packet captures, it became clear what was going on. Although the device was using the network settings that I had manually configured, I had not specified a default gateway. The device decided it would use DHCP to discover the default gateway for the network and began automatically using it so it could get out to the Internet.

Since then, I've started specifying a default gateway for any devices that I don't want to get out. I give 'em an IP address that isn't in use on the network and, fortunately, I haven't ran into any other instances of crap like this happening.

[0]: I really wish I could remember what device this was but it's been a long time ago and I really have no idea, sorry.

In my family we use Instant Ink and actually love it. We're on the largest plan (300 pages/mo). We spend less on ink now than we used to, and it is a huge relief to not have to make a late-night run to the big box store because the school project is due the next day and the stupid magenta has run out. The ink is always there, waiting to be swapped out, then you recycle the used cartridges when they're done. It's incredibly convenient for us, is a cost-savings, and I am reasonably okay with the fact that they know how many pages I print and the types of documents.

HOWEVER, I was recently looking at the bandwidth stats from my network switch, and was pretty shocked to see the printer has sent out several hundred megabytes of data back to HP over the past month. I knew it had to communicate with the mothership so they could charge me for my usage, but that should be a packet that says something like "User XYZ just printed 7 pages," which would reasonably be 5kb per job. I have no idea why hundreds of megs of data need to go out, and so I'm planning of on doing some DPI investigation the to set what on the world it feels like it needs to be sending.

One thing I appreciated about the Sandstorm architecture, and I wonder if you now consider this a mistake, is that each grain holds its own state, using ordinary files and possibly in memory (since IIUC, there's one instance of a grain running at any given time).

But I would have liked to use an architecture like this in a SaaS application. We may wish that applications were self-hosted, but SaaS is what people are used to, and there's a lot of money in it. An architecture for SaaS applications based on many small, stateful units, like Sandstorm grains, would be a refreshing alternative to the current norm of trying to make everything stateless and web-scale. And I think it's something you could have sold. I remember proposing something like this to you on an HN comment thread a few years ago, but maybe I didn't articulate it well.

The reason I wonder if you now see the statefulness of grains as a mistake is that Cloudflare Workers are going even further in the other direction. Whereas Sandstorm grains can be long-running, Cloudflare Workers are very short-lived. Of course, I realize that you aren't explicitly developing Cloudflare Workers as the successor to Sandstorm; it's a new product with its own requirements. Still, I wonder if your thinking on that part of Sandstorm has changed.
They changed it.

Why not register the unhyphenated name also, and redirect?

You can make an argument for a second factor (other than hardware key) being of fairly little value to anyone using an offline password manager and generating passwords with a huge amount of entropy.

I don't think this is entirely true, and so I often use TOTP with important sites. But I'm okay with storing the TOTP key in my password manager (which encrypts the password database with a long key phrase and a key file). Even on top of the very little chance that any of my long passwords are going to get leaked or broken, I think the chance that this happens because my password manager gets hacked along with the TOTP keys (as opposed to me getting phished or a vulnerability in a website) is pretty remote.

There's tons of innovation occurring in the Chinese hardware market. For consumer devices, I'd say there's much more innovation happening in Shenzhen than in San Fran.

I did not use the word "can" or "must". Those are not my words.

I said Isreal was "open to" certain people, which is an accurate description of the policy. Where citizenship suitability is at issue, such as an asylum claim or immigration/visa application, religious factors then come into play. I made no mention of Israel claiming control or forcing citizenship on anyone.
It’s 50 pages per month. The cartridges they get are probably the 150 or 200 per page ones. In other word they’re paying a monthly fee to get a max of 3 or 4 cartridges a year. Probably less.

I’ve grown to hate the modern ink jet printers with a passion. I moved on to the consumer laser printers. I’m sure I’ll hate them too soon enough.

Are we talking legally or morally?

Extending your argument, it is probably not possible to trick someone into murdering someone, because murder requires intent. But it’s definitely possible to trick someone into killing someone.

With rape, we don’t have two different words like that. And Stallman doesn’t seem to be limiting himself to a strictly legalistic interpretation of everything.
Managed healthcare companies have huge data and they have begun to use ML to classify their documents as medical and non-medical, as quality of care and quality of service etc., based on the text they extract from their members' health insurance claims. Generally the extracted text needs a lot of preprocessing.
There are legitimate advantages to this business model, and even though I'm not a fan of it myself I can appreciate the value proposition. One way to look at it is a form of insurance - it distributes an irregular large payment into a regular smaller monthly payment that makes it easier for budgeting. That can provide significant benefit in some contexts.

TextMate never had AppleScript integration, AFAIK.

Also, I'm not convinced we should ignore those "archaic" technologies, at least in the abstract. Applications can provide "dictionaries" of commands that, when implemented well, provide GUI applications with the kind of "snap together for amazing effect" you get with shell scripts and a host of well-written CLI tools. You arguably can't script the AppleScript-intensive BBEdit to the same level that you could, say, Emacs or Vim, but imagine the possibilities of a suite of apps from different makers that all had complete scripting dictionaries that could all be woven together with a deep system-wide scripting language.

I actually think it's a shame that AppleScript has been kicked to the curb. I don't think we have a "modern" replacement yet -- certainly not in the Apple ecosystem, and I'm not sure anywhere else. (Shortcuts on iOS is trying, but it's not on the Mac yet, and it gets pretty clunky if you start doing overly complicated automation bits with it.)

It's not exactly easy to make an "accessible" DAW. Especially not when you consider that there probably isn't a huge market of blind music producers relative to the amount of work it would take to, say, make a somewhat-sane interface for a screen reader for a program as complex as ableton. The interface is very complex as is, and would almost certainly require some re-jiggering before it would work well. I doubt enough people would buy t to ever make it a worth-while investment.
So it's not like a "claim of ownership" to people and not relevant to the comment you replied to?
Comically absent in this description of ML which includes hard technology like NLP and actual use cases like self-driving cars is the elephant in the room of advertising and surveillance. It's just like Andrew Ng's machine learning course on Coursera - lists all these uses of machine learning....except mining user information for advertising and other purposes. If anything, it's buried under "image recognition" and "recommender systems". And yet it's what brings in the dough. Pretty telling that the overwhelming majority of this technology's current application is too unpalatable to acknowledge.

Is that with the js_binary/library rules or something new? Last time I checked, all the work that goes into compiling the JS sources and minifying them into a single "binary" blob happens in the js_binary definition, and the js_library definitions traditionally served only to construct a total ordering of raw source source file dependencies.
You don't need to know anything about music theory to make music. You don't even need to know what a note is to make music, music predates every concept you just mentioned and it likely predates language. It seems pretty elitist to assume you need all or any of that to make music. Does it help? Sure, in the same way art classes help you make art. But you don't need to take an art class to paint a beautiful picture with time and dedication.
Yes, I plan to continue pushing security updates for Sandstorm as I have been for the last five years, and self-hosted Sandstorm is very good about auto-updating.

Meanwhile, with a self-hosted server, you get better security (compared to Oasis) due to the fact that only you and people you authorize can install apps on that server. For even more security you can of course put it on a private network or behind Cloudflare Access[0] for extra defense-in-depth.

Note: I don't rely on Sandstorm for email yet, because Sandstorm doesn't have good email support currently... but I'd like to build that support, because I'm getting really uncomfortable with gmail.

Show HN: Platform to Share and Request for Datasets
When I was a senior in high school, I went to go visit a bunch of colleges. They had programs where applicants could spend a day with current students—or maybe only after you were admitted, I don’t remember. Anyway, I had all different impressions and thought the visits could really inform my choice, but after spending a few years in the one ultimately picked, and hosted a few high school students myself, I don’t think I learned anything truly meaningful on those visits at all.
Well, I'll be that guy. Searched for "rho", but it didn't find "varrho"
It does, and one can argue it's been maintained and updated much more consistently than TextMate. I still think BBEdit is the best "Swiss army knife" for text manipulation; I've used it for editing huge Markdown-based documentation sites in three tech writing jobs now.

Lot of neo-luddites reading HN on what must be ancient artifacts.

Notwithstanding minimizing screen-time for kids, I think what we're seeing is a push back against excessively consumptive activities in favor of creative/productive ones. That's tech-agnostic. You can just as well read a novel on an e-reader or tablet. Likewise, you can write and create music, draw art, etc on a device. While I've never played Minecraft I've heard it described as virtual lego.

However, devices are an unparalleled delivery system for distraction; reason enough for some not to carry a smartphone.

We make "screens" the operative difference when it comes to recreation time for kids because we know first hand they can be absolutely glued to it for it's multimedia. This may impact capacity for attention, let alone creativity. That being said, it's nothing new. Television has been around a long time. We've also had a generation grow up with computers from an early age. With video games. Some who now live in the terminal and code at leisure. Are millennials uncreative in aggregate?

EDIT: downvoting coward, I'm not directly responding to the article. I'm responding to what I've seen in other comments.
Command and Control via TCP Handshake
As long as the desktop sync continues to work as it does for all major OS's then they most certainly can milk their product for cash.

iOS and MacOS have changed how they have handle third party syncing a few times over the past 4 or five years. Microsoft and Apple are both adding features to make Dropbox unnecessary and Microsoft has a large enterprise and consumer marketing budget to chip away at Dropbox’s profitable enterprise base.

While Google isn’t as entrenched in the enterprise as Microsoft, it is becoming more entrenched in education and it gives away a lot more storage for free.

If you think any software maker can just sit on its laurels, see what happened when MS tried that with IE.

> I see a lot of long form articles here without any comments and I wonder, are they upvoted by bots?

The Hacker News ranking algorithm penalises lots of comments. Posts stay near the top precisely because they do not have comments.
In your complaint you even note the difference, so I'm a little confused.

> although [Didi drivers are] obviously careful not to go too far for their own good

I don't think any Westerner seriously feels that they could be jailed for anything short of telling some official that they're going to kill the president or some major leader. Person to person, you can say whatever. As much as I don't like the NSA's overreach I don't think they are listening or don't bother themselves with these acts (one of the two has to be true given the last decade).

So I'd say that's one big difference.

You're also talking about a time when America has record distaste and distrust for their politicians and president. It wasn't always like this and I think your argument would be fine if the majority of people supported the state, but that's just currently not the case.

> You reap the benefits of all these policies you are supposedly against

How do I not? Seriously. I didn't choose to be born in this country. I can't just not reap the benefits. There is no method for me to pick and choose my benefits based on my personal beliefs. So I'm not sure what you expect me to do. There's no country I can move to that is doing significantly better. The only action I can see is to attempt to change what is happening here. But if you see more that I can do I would appreciate the advice (I'm serious). I'm not resigning to my "fate". A defeatist attitude is a step backwards.

> Is this really any different from a Chinese police officer saying “I was just following orders”?

Yes. I'm not sure why you think the populous is the same as state actors (police). They are different entities. Also, "just following orders" isn't an excuse in the military, let alone international law. It doesn't hold up here in America. You can go to jail for committing crimes that you were ordered to commit. Doesn't matter if you're the head of the military following the president's orders (you may notice that generals do ignore presidential orders, see the Muller report) or a police officer following the chief. Authorization does not protect you in a court of law.
