With DNS over HTTPS, the ISP would have the ability to see the IP address you are connecting to, yes, but critically they would not have the ability to see the domain name that you had visited unless your browser is also doing SNI. Which it probably is, so from a privacy standpoint, not much changes.

What does change is the ISP's inability to tamper with the DNS response. Many, many ISPs will refuse to actually send a DNS not found for certain record types, instead serving up their own custom search pages with advertisements and other garbage. It also prevents certain classes of MitM that involve intercepting plain-text DNS and re-routing that request to a different server by responding with an attacker-controlled value.

So, from a privacy standpoint, DNS over HTTPS by itself isn't buying you all that much (since SNI leaks the same information during the SSL handshake to your target) but in terms of making your access to the DNS infrastructure much harder to tamper with, it does a whole bunch.

EDIT: ooohhh, ESNI is a thing? This seems interesting to keep an eye on: https://blog.cloudflare.com/esni/

> Why would people no longer mining make bitcoin useless?

Because mining is what secures the network.

> which IIRC isn't related to transactional processing

Transactions are confirmed by being included in mined blocks. The amount of compute power burned to mine that block, and the following blocks, is what prevents someone from pretending a different transaction (moving the money somewhere else - a double-spend) happened first.

> what is the lightning network about? Isn't that a code change?

Software running on top of the existing mining network, although downwards-compatible changes were made to enable it. The downwards-compatible is key here.

> if every major exchange enforced the switch, and miners kept mining coins that the exchanges didn't take,

Then someone would make an exchange that still trades "original Bitcoin" and get rich, and the exchanges would go bankrupt.

More sensible and less controversial changes failed or resulted in splits (with the chain that remained downwards compatible being the most valuable one).

(Downwards compatible is the easiest approximation I can come up with for the much more complicated reality.)

You can...and certainly cloning a git repo or hitting the "fork" button on github is a normal part of the development workflow. If you're experimenting those changes may be discarded. If you're contributing those changes go back to upstream. But I don't think either of those are what the author means by fork. Other folks have talked about this. [1] [2]

I think the author means: if you're maintaining changes in your fork indefinitely and advertising this fork to others as superior to the original to use or as a canonical place to file issues, you should have a good reason. Communities are valuable; please don't divide them or throw them away lightly. Try working with the original maintainer first.

It also is kinda misguided.

If you have the capability to acquire/build a ballistic missile of that class, you most likely can (will) build your own GPS/GNSS receiver. Hell you can take a software defined radio and make your own software-based GPS receiver that does NOT disable itself at those described thresholds (some folks have done this for extremely high-altitude balloon experiments).

Selling it of course is another question.

Not one byte, but a number of bytes equal to the length of the CRC (typically 4).

But yes, people saying "CRC" when they really mean "checksum" or "signature" is a pet peeve of mine, and I treat it as a code smell. CRC has a precise defined technical meaning.

For the curious: CRC is linear with respect to XOR. This means that if you XOR two equal-length strings, the CRC will be the individual CRCs XORed together. It's also a bijection for messages of length equal to the polynomial (typically 32 bits): every input maps to a distinct output and vice-versa. Together, these mean it's trivially invertible for a message of length equal to the CRC: the CRC function can be represented as a square matrix over GF-2 (i.e., bits + XOR), which can be inverted with standard Gaussian elimination to produce the inverse function: generate a (short) string from any CRC.

More fun CRC tidbits: it's not a given that two arbitrary CRC functions, or a CRC and another linear(ish) checksum (e.g. ones' complement), are linearly independent. This can bite you when you try to use two different CRCs to get "more" error protection, or when you use "independent" CRCs to route work at two different points in a system. Again this is easy to verify using linear algebra (just check that the GF-2 matrix formed by the concatenation of your two functions is of full rank).
From the basis of reducing capital outlay, increasing pasture utilisation, improving omega3:omega6 fatty acid ratios in steroid and antibiotic free meat, and maximising productive use of marginal land - "primitive" is exactly the correct term for what Halter is aiming to achieve.

Importing corn, to feed a cow in a shed, then milk it three times a day, using a robot that breaks down regularly, and coupling it with a collar, that doesn't detect estrous more effectively than a primitive farmer who just observes his cows and isn't an expert in the maintenance of 10 robots - is the current state of modern agricultural technology.

Unfortunately the Lely salesman, the bank manager, and the farmer are unaware that maintaining multiple complex robots on farms is not profitable and that one state of the art robot to 50 cows or so is a waste of capital that only exists due to farmer subsidies and the tediousness of milk-harvesting.

Halter has the lead in this space currently because

Their collars remotely move the animals - this is a good thing when those animals evolved to graze pasture. The collar does anything the other collars do to a higher standard plus a lot of other things which are important to farming grass profitably.

Also while those Lely robots are uneconomic presently - at some point in the next 5 years - a single robot that sits in the cups on side of a rotary cowshed and milks 350 cows per hour will come on the market.

So the halter collar will move the cows to the pasture and back to the cowshed and one cost effective robot will milk them. Producing healthy food at a lower cost which is good for everybody except for subsidised corn farmers who are I feel are slowly poisoning the world.

They have some fairly decent backing, I think they secured 8m in their last round. The founder of Rocket Lab sits on their board. They are certainly doing interesting work in the agricultural space, and there is nothing wrong with primitive. We evolved for 600 million years or so and using technology that respects rather than exploits evolution is generally healthy.

The dairy-farmer in video [2] gets a subsidy from the government as does the corn farmer who supplies corn for his cows. The thing is the dairy-farmer would make more money - and everyone would be healthier if there was no subsidised corn in the system. Also one of the reasons that New Zealand farmers are innovative and produce healthier food from pasture that is cost competitive globally including delivery is, that they don't get any subsidies. None. Nothing. They eat what they kill from a natural economic and environmental system.

The good ol boys and the Europeans run farms in protected markets that are only economically viable with their taxpayers topping them up. Doesn't read like a fertile space for innovation.

One of the biggest priorities as we shape this future needs to be a way not only for the algos to make correct decisions, but also the ability for us to interrogate the decision-making process so we can be proactive about the kind of future we want this technology to give us.

Because it is coming, without a doubt.
This is right on. After reading the other thread on the front page right now about independent and successful makers, I noticed a pattern.

Firefox and Safari are way ahead of Chrome on this. Safari has blocked third-party cookies for years, with no way to opt-in to supporting them. Ad companies have worked around that restriction, using a number of circumventions that Chrome does not currently intend to block.

When ad companies attempt to circumvent Safari's third-party cookie policy, Safari tries to block them as part of their non-standard ITP (Intelligent Tracking Prevention) program. https://clearcode.cc/blog/intelligent-tracking-prevention/

Firefox has followed suit with an "Enhanced Tracking Protection" feature, which was optional, but became mandatory in September of this year. https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2019/09/03/todays-firefox-bloc...

Rather than fearing to break the web, Apple has broken the web's ad tech frequently and aggressively; users seem not to mind.

Browser vendors fear "breaking the web," in part because they're afraid that users will switch browsers if their favorite web site stops working. But it turns out that if you just break the web's ads, users tend to like it, if they even notice in the first place.
Most people won't care. The coming battles are about defaults.

Interesting, I wasn't aware he corrected himself. Just to be clear though, what he said in the video you linked was slightly different than you describe, and nuance matters.

The specific section is here: https://youtu.be/mk4KR02iF5M?t=280

Mueller: "That is not the correct way to say it. As we say in the report and as I said in the opening, we did not reach a determination as to whether the president committed a crime."

Fair enough. He doesn't mention whether it was a deciding factor unless I'm missing some earlier quote? The OLC opinion (assuming he abided by it, which seems to be the case) means he has no business even making a determination as to whether the president committed a crime. It's very frustrating that the OLC opinion prevents us from really learning more, but I'll grant you we have to live with it, and shouldn't legally assume any more than what was presented.

We'll see what history decides. I'm pretty sure he's a crook, but I'm pretty sure OJ is guilty too. Hope I'm wrong.
>When Watson began his campaign in early 1982, he was aware of ratification by only six states and he erroneously believed that Virginia's 1791 approval was the last action taken by the states. He discovered in 1983 that Ohio had approved it in 1873 as a means of protest against the Salary Grab Act and learned in 1984 that Wyoming had done the same 6 years earlier in 1978, as a protest against a 1977 congressional pay raise. Further, Watson did not know, until 1997, well after the amendment's adoption, that Kentucky had ratified the amendment in 1792. Neither did Kentucky lawmakers themselves — in Watson's desire for a 50-state sweep, the Kentucky General Assembly post-ratified the amendment in 1996 (Senate Joint Resolution No. 50), at Watson's request, likewise unaware that the task had already been attended to some 204 years earlier.

>In 2016, Zach Elkins, a professor in the UT Department of Government, became interested in Watson's story and began to document its origins. He tracked down Sharon Waite, who had left academia in the 1980s to work on her family's citrus farm. Elkins suggested to Waite that they change Watson's grade. In 2017, Elkins submitted a grade change form with Waite's signature and a grade change to "A+". In an interview with NPR, Waite stated, "Goodness, he certainly proved he knew how to work the Constitution and what it meant and how to be politically active, [...] So, yes, I think he deserves an A after that effort — A-plus!" The registrar approved a grade change to "A", because the university does not give grades higher than "A".

Vacuuming every day strikes me as misguided, even if (especially if) you have allergies, because the residual dust never has a chance to settle. I'm speaking as someone who has issues with household dust much beyond most people, and who has found even a good air purifier to be counterproductive if used 100% of the time.
This is tough news for any author.

But the hard-charging, political take-no-prisoners attitude of today needs to be rethought. She had an agenda and then looked for flimsy facts to bolster it. I would like a return to the days when authors tried to step back and write a well-considered and balanced view of what happened, not try to write a polemic.
I wish more wealthy people would lead by example though. Like instead if Obamas bought much smaller place and made it carbon neutral.

>Why did you present two passports?

Two reasons: Internationally if you do this the official will (normally) pick the most favorable/least paperwork one.

For transparency - I have nothing to hide & wanted to play open cards. If he wants to run both through his systems that's cool - they'll both come back clean.

Me: Good morning sir. Here are my passports. My US ESTA Visa for entry into the USA was issued on the German one.

Him: You can't have two passports.

Me: I have dual citizenship, hence two passports.

Him: No US law doesn't allow you to have two passports.

Me - thinking...oh fk...this guy isn't grasping that US citizenship law doesn't apply to all 7.5 billion people on the world. Do I argue with this idiot? Nope...read enough horror stories on HN about US border arbitrarily detentions. US border agents can clearly do whatever the fuck they want. Went with a fake sorry sir won't happen again.

Oh and this is for a white male in a business suit for a business meeting with a company that's on the HN frontpage on a fuckin German passport speaking perfect English. I dread to think what the experience is like for someone more ahem diverse.

The internal Intel competitive analysis is not bad here: https://www.techpowerup.com/256842/intel-internal-memo-revea...

I don't know about µarch details but a bunch of bigger-picture things have contributed to AMD's run:

Spinning off their foundry ops led to AMD getting to use TSMC, who turned out to have a great process node at 7nm. Indirectly, it probably helps that other huge customers mean TSMC can amortize their process development costs across all of them.

The chiplet approach with a separate I/O die has various advantages:

- The Zen 2 chiplet is identical from the cheapest client CPU to the most expensive server CPU. Surely reduces complexity, and silicon that won't work in a server part might work in a client chip or whatever.

- Relatedly, binning 8-core chiplets is way more forgiving than binning huge monolithic CPUs like Intel's doing; with AMD lots of cores and high perf doesn't require a huge, uniformly near-perfect die, just enough chiplets that meet the spec that you can glue together.

- The I/O die is on a very mature, probably cheaper GloFo process, which may have made it less costly for AMD to offer interesting features on the I/O side (PCIe 4 and 128 lanes even for the cheapest server part, AES-128 in the memory controller, etc.).

Won't happen this gen, but I kind of expect Intel to eventually use some version of chiplets for their larger parts. They're talking about their advanced stacking/packaging tech, so not totally outlandish. Short-term they do have a two-die Cascade Lake mega-CPU planned, but I mean more broadly.

One cost of chiplets is in higher DRAM access latencies. AMD's done things to try and mitigate that, including just using lots of L3 cache. From benchmarks it seems to work.

The Intel analysis also mentions their shift to higher-margin parts as important.

I don't know how critical it is to the story but AMD also did some deals that may've given them resources to invest in their designs, like the GloFo spinoff, the deal to sell Epyc 1 clones in China, and the deals to produce Xbox and Playstation chips.

Finally, Intel would ordinarily have their own progress that would make AMD look comparatively worse. But 10nm stalled an incredible amount of time and Intel's post-Skylake core design, Sunny Cove, depended on it.
