>I doubt Apple is actually "handing over IP addresses" - rather it's a feature of connecting directly to Tencent via the IP internet. Though they could conceivably provide some sort of proxying, caching, and batching if they wanted to improve privacy.

I vaguely remember that back when maps.app used google maps, the app would contact apples's servers (presumably a proxy) rather than google's directly.
Says you. But in reality what you're claiming as undeniable truth is actually debatable, and there are plenty of studies to the contrary.
A baguette in my Midwestern city close to as good as a standard Parisian corner store baguette is like $6. You can get some that are "good" but in fact way worse than the real deal for $4-5. Approach the 2 Euro baguette in price and we're talking something that's so much worse it's unrecognizable. Pastries have a similar ~2x markup and are still usually not quite as good as the norm there even at the high end of the price range. IDK what it is that makes decent baked goods so expensive here. We grow all the wheat, FFS. Apparently kinda halfway knowing how to produce a plain-ass croissant that is somewhat reminiscent of an actual croissant is rare and expensive knowledge around here. We flat-out cannot produce affordable baked goods & bread that aren't fairly bad, it seems—simply not-bad is luxury priced here, and you may have to drive a ways to get it.

[EDIT] and this bleeds over into anything requiring bread, like a sandwich. If you buy one out and it's not quite expensive, it will for sure be using pretty bad bread and there'll be a fairly low cap on how good it might be.

[EDIT EDIT] toss in the fact that decent or better cheese is more expensive here, and the sandwich situation is downright dire.
The point is the contrapositive: if your idea is not initially rejected, it's probably quite pedestrian.
Can you do me a favor? If not for yourself simply do it for a random guy on the internet. Can you walk at least 15 minutes a day if you are not already? Work up to 1 hour a day. It's fine if you walk slowly. You don't have to run. You don't have to do push ups. Just walk. You'll feel better about everything in about a week.

I walk everyday. I prefer a pair of 1461 Doc Martin over my $170 Asics.
Indeed, but there's unlikely to be many 11 year olds reading this thread.

These days, ordinary walk-around digital cameras use CMOS because it's less expensive. CMOS tends to be read line by line. That's why rolling shutter can be an issue when shooting video.
What do you think about embracing the controversy embedded within the term as a means of educating people around its underlying principles, getting people talking/thinking about it, etc?

There doesn't appear to be any evidence that educational videos are banned. This is just the same overblown news story from a month ago that they admitted was just a fluke of the content flagging system.

A quick search on Google shows plenty of educational content in hacking, some from Google themselves. I'd say this borders on conspiracy theory at this point.
How do you get that from what's happening here? Apple is actually doing the exact opposite of that. They're obfuscating traffic prior to sending it out to the government entity (Tencent) and only sending partial matches of the obfuscation and then processing the return completely on the local machine. If anything, that appears to be them actively fighting governmental mass surveillance. Even if they do maintain a record of IP addresses, the model for something like that based on URL hash prefixes alone would need to be staggeringly large. They'd probably need more storage and computing power than is available right now.

I'm really curious how you've come to that conclusion and I mean that sincerely. What makes you say that?
Being the victim of espionage isn't 'giving it away' - but I see you're being deliberately obtuse.
Rather than being compelled, what happens if the citizen is voluntarily spying for their government? And maybe it's not even their government, maybe their brother in law is an exec for a competitor back home, so they want to help him out. And rather than being Chinese, maybe the citizen is French.

> Milk in the US is only a couple days old by the time it's in the grocery store.

Same for me. It took me a bit to figure out what was going on with this discussion and then suddenly I realized ..

The US is not a single system and actually the quality does vary a lot. I remember being in Florida and thinking why is the milk so weird.
If I understand correctly, these are different effects. The article uses Special Relativity. With Special Relativity you can't break the laws of conservation of energy and momentum.

The Woodward effect uses General Relativity. So the conservations laws are more complicated to define because the space-time is curved. Anyway, the curvature is so small that if it is real it would be very difficult to measure and even more difficult to use it in a thruster.
This is not fair.

Riot games are own by Tencent which is a Chinese company. All these comments about keeping the 'unfair representation' is bullshit. They are just following instructions from their parent company which is following the instructions from the Chinese government.

Honestly I don't understand the complaints.. For almost any technical career you will need to do some form of self study.. Also this program is aiming to compete with 4 year comp sci students. So yes you're going to need to grind to make up in <1 year what took someone 4.

They seem so at first glance, but you have to build a couple of sheilds -- one for nuclear debris and the other for interstellar debris. There are also other problems with emission, fuel, etc. Issac Arthur has a good video on it (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3aBOhC1c6m8). All of Issac Arthur's stuff is, quite frankly, amazing. He has a clear understanding of the material and manages to convey it in a way to laymen, like no one else.
I twice jumped into a lake with multiple inches of ice on top for a short swim. It was for a charity event. I learned the following: when your animal brain decides your human brain isn't doing a good job, it will not hesitate to take over and save you.

The experience was:

1. In the air.

2. Hit the water.

3. Several seconds with no memory.

4. Swimming at the far edge of the water, even though I did not tell my body to swim here.

5. Getting out of the water, even though I did not tell my body to get out.

Instincts just took over entirely. I'm grateful the human body comes with autopilot in extreme situations. I've been saved from severe burns by the same phenomena: my instincts kicking in and dodging a plume of flaming oil that was headed for my face.

I've also had this work against me. In a former life, before I was a sedentary software developer, I worked as an apprentice lineman. When climbing a telephone pole, swaying in the wind, 45 feet (~13m) in the air, my animal brain desperately wanted me to get down. Eventually, you're able to convince your brain that this is normal, but it takes some doing. We had one person get stuck in the air because they couldn't get past it.

> I got a bloodwork done at my last medical appointment and it came back perfect. High good cholesterol, low bad cholesterol, all the fats, proteins, etc. in the best ranges. The doctor then proceeded to go over all the things I must be doing right to have such good bloodworks but the only things I was actually doing were not ingesting too much sugar and exercising a lot. On everything else my diet basically consisted of the opposite of what is recommended.

Did the bloodwork include vitamin tests? If so, do you mind me asking what vitamins they tested for and how they came out?

I don't remember the exact cause per say beyond Bob saying that some drives did a thermal recalibration and if this occured during a multi sector transfer, the filesystem got shot to hell. Everyone at MWC had taken a crack at it and you're right, it didn't show up in any of the MWC equipment. At some point in time I think I bought a brand new WD 504MB disk for my home box and I discovered that I could replicate the conditions of the bug regularly. I do remember having a eureka moment on a Saturday morning when I realized that the the issue was error handling after a multi-sector transfer gone bad. However, that was one of the last things I did on the MWC payroll. If I remember right, the first round of layoffs was in October of 1994 and I was in them along with Ed Bravo and a few others. Ed and I ran down to a pub that Addison Snell and Jeff Day had showed me a few weeks earlier and threw some darts.

PC hardware was all over the map in those days. I didn't remember this bug being tied to cabling but I only worked it to the point where we recognized that the cause was not handling an error in multi-sector transfers correctly. I do remember putting Scatter/Gather handling into the SCSI driver so that SCSI drives could do the same multi-sector trick. I also dimly remember that Louis Gilberto had to patch my driver for a bug afterwards and Hal said that he didn't have kind words for me.

In a behavioral psych class, we had the "Bart vs Lisa" analogy of working.

If we pay Bart to study, his grades will increase. If we pay Lisa to study, her grades will decrease. I've forgotten the original papers this was based on because it's not my area.

Anyway. I'm sure Bart's work for pay is equivalent or better than Lisa's free work.

If asked, any rational human would work an hour for $5 versus $0, right? Nobody can spend time making anything complex or useful and then give it away freely.
Counting the Countless
That's true, but if you scroll down further it mentions that they try several permutations of the url, up to 30. So while grabbing 1 of the 2^32 buckets won't say much, grabbing 5 buckets (once for each permutation) in a specific order may very well indicate that you browsed a specific url.
I just did some ballpark math...

The top return for a google search "how many pages does google have in it's index" says Google has "30 trillion web pages" (that's a 2013 article, but let's roll with that number for now).

The Google Safe Browsing docs says to send the first 32 bits of a 256 bit SHA256 hash. So there's 2^32 = 4e9 possible prefixes (And 2^224 = 2e67possible hashes for each prefix.)

30 trillion = 3e13 webpages. If you assume they're evenly distributed across all the hash prefixes (a reasonable assumption for a cryptographically strong hash function) there's about 1e4 or 10,000 urls matching each prefix. (And that's a lower bound, using 2013 vintage estimates of the number of known urls...)

I _think_ that means visiting 13-14 unique urls from a site in Tencent's lists would be enough to guarantee they could tell which site and pages you'd just visited? (since 2^14 > 1e4)

Sendgrid puts a huge amount of money and resources into maintaining both technical and political legitimacy. They have relationships with other major senders and receivers of email, they follow every single rule to the T, they aggressively police their own IPs (of which they have many) etc. It's a complicated business, which is why it's totally worth it to pay them to do it for you.
Or the hashes of all the resources loaded by those pages. That collection of prefixes is going to start getting unique quickly.

Edit: example:
P(baduser | hashA )= ~0
P(baduser | hashA and hashB and ... hashF) = 0.75

One prefix doesn't do it, but a bunch together in a smallish time period can fingerprint a site quite well. This is analagous to browser fingerprinting.
Yes, that’s already possible today, they can do anything.

We haven’t decided for sure if we’re going to do this upstream yet, so those kinds of policy questions have yet to be answered. I’d imagine so, but there’s a lot of details there!

Says the research. In response to your point a few posts up about explaining correlations with IQ being the parents influence, IQ is also correlated to social mobility.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3248886/

"Childhood IQ and achieved education level were significantly and independently associated with upward mobility between the ages of 5 and 49-51 years. Only education was significantly associated (positively) with upward social mobility between 5 and 25 years, and only childhood IQ (again positively) with upward social mobility between 25 and 49-51 years. Childhood IQ was significantly negatively associated with downward social mobility. Adult height, childhood housing conditions, adverse events in childhood and sex were not significant determinants of upward or downward social mobility in this cohort."

To answer one question:

> I find surprising that you need to reference count a task explicitly.

This is likely due to how the task and waker system is defined in Rust. A Waker is kind of a handle to the task, whose lifetime is indefinite. Some code can have a handle/Waker to a task which already has finished long ago. One way to make sure the handle is still valid is to reference count it. Since in the Tokio system the Waker/handle and the tasks internal state are actually the same object, this means the combined state gets a reference count.
Things absolutely can violate the laws of physics, in which case the laws of physics have to be rewritten. In fact, that's the holy grail in physics, is to find an experiment which reliably breaks the currently existing laws of physics. That is how progress is made. If it were like you say, then there would be no need for physics research, everything would already be known.
Power imbalance is the consequence of marrying up/down economically.

Are you saying she should be able to control the fate of his company just because she’s married to him? You think this remotely makes her qualified?

Attitudes like this are what force people to marry within their class which is bad for society in the long run. By being able to marry outside your class without fear of being wiped out, a (usually) woman can move up (in addition to all the other ways available to her) and likely her family gets access to some of that.

To see what happens when people must marry within their class, look no further than European nobility.

Seriously, say I am building a company worth 100m on paper. You think if I marry someone she should be entitled to a large fraction of that? Why? Let’s assume she doesn’t do anything with the business. Say she was an accountant when we met and continues to be one after. Sure, she can’t tell me what mansion to buy, etc, but those are things to work out. Am I a guy to totally ignore her desires? If so, she shouldn’t marry me.

Flip this around. Suppose I’m a lowly programmer. I marry a super rich supermodel. Am I entitled to her money just because?

I would argue the contrary. France is heavy imprinted with socialism and ideas such as "everything is cultural". There is strong social backlash for even implying that intelligence is (mostly) genetics. The political implications are too strong, in particular for the "vivre ensemble" fantasy.

The whole education system is built around the idea that everyone is the same and could success if they work hard enough, which has seriously bad consequences such as universities filled with people who don’t belong there (this is becoming worth and worth as the bar is lowered constantly in lower education). There is shaming about trade schools in most of the country, despite it being a way to succeed and filling jobs needed by society. There is specialized schools and sections for low IQ people but not for higher ones. You better be average to fit and "succeed" at school.
