So, since Apple is the only company "buying" apps from developers, they could raise their cut as high as they want and developers can do nothing about it.

Could Apple then argue that they aren't the only game in town because of things like subscriptions and web apps? (e.g. I don't pay for Netflix or Spotify through Apple, but the apps work fine)
You can (effectively) do that already -- just set your spot bid to the maximum you're willing to pay, i.e. the on-demand price.

So I would be amazed if there were not some malicious certificates out there already.
you're mixing 2 different concepts. Yes they end in oriented-programming in the end but one is an exploit technique and one is a programming model.

I know I’m like 15 hours late to commenting on this thread, but, first of all I’m going to preface this by saying I really enjoy these discussions as with most discussions and love everyone’s perspective they bring to the table. This is regardless of if I agree with it. I also love giving my perspective, because if/when I give replies those that take the time to reply back in whatever form often make me leave feeling appreciated, understood, and/or more educated than before I replied. Also hopefully I give someone else a chance to feel that too.

I think the main principle that describes this situation where you can put yourself in someone else’s shoes is empathy. A complimentary principle in my mind is humility. Humility as I was taught is a principle not of self deprecation, but of self honesty. For example it would not be “I know nothing”, but instead “I know quite a lot of things but there is still a lot I don’t know”. Just like thinking you know nothing, thinking you know everything is also not humility. The self honesty part of humility can be about any of your capabilities not just knowledge.

When you give yourself the opportunity to be humble and say this person has a whole life of experiences that I don’t have and if I approach them the right way about it and empathize they can give me perspective on their ideas and choices. This leads you to understand them better and help them through a difficulty or trial or problem they are having it could also do the same for you as then you can say “I’ve never thought of it like that before.” This is not to say you should agree with their worldview blindly and follow your emotions blindly, but once you’ve allowed your controlled emotions to get you this far use knowledge to make a rational decision on which side to choose and if you feel like helping them see what you see present it in a way to them that is constructive.

I’ve found these two principles useful not only when I discuss with others but also when I read the thoughts of others too. For example if I read a biography, I ask what unique perspectives does this person have, and what can this person teach me whether it’s something they themselves thought and acted on correctly or incorrectly.
> No, you should tell us how they are not based on sound research and logic.

Your claim is simply a just-so statement. You're the one making an unjustified assumption. Why should I assume you're correct by default? Until you actually provide any plausible reason why I should take it seriously, your claim is invalid.

The impetus is on _you_.
That's a common misconception.

What's not nice is collapsing total spending (equal to collapsing nominal GDP). In practice, a collapse in total spending often comes with a depression of the price level.

As long as nominal GDP is stable (or alternatively, total nominal wages), prices can drop all they want. We see that eg in the computer sector. Total spending on computers increases, while prices drop thanks to better technology and greater productivity.

See eg https://mises.org/library/less-zero-case-falling-price-level... for some more background.

Well, for one, if you have any intranet services that you want to access from outside of the network, but aren't sure in their bulletproof security, it's better to firewall everything other than one port on one device for the VPN, and connect via the VPN to access intranet services.

Second, some ISPs offer TV service on mobile devices and even set top boxes, but only inside your LAN on your assigned IP address. My ISP offers up to 3 TV STB devices (that run Android TV) per contract for free (mandated by law, because I can't buy my own STB and get a smart card!), but they only work on my LAN.

Since I live away from my parents, I wanted to have TV in their house without paying twice (that same ISP is not available at my parents' house at all, anyway)

My solution was to install OpenVPN Connect on the set top box, set it to auto start on boot, and to auto connect to my VPN.

From the TV app's point of view, I'm in my LAN, and it can talk to my modem on it's fake "virtual" IP address, and also reach the ISP's servers with proper authorization (they authorize users based on the IP address that was assigned to that user, which is stupid if you share your WiFi without having VPN on the guest SSID, but whatever).
The mitigation should be to remove all code that supports custom elliptic curves. This is a misfeature, it shouldn't exist. I also don't think anyone uses it for real.

This stems from a time where people thought maximum flexibility in cryptography is a good idea. It's not.

Hey,

Sorry for the kerfuffle, I mean no harm to you, your reputation & your app. I wish I had screenshotted that. I remember almost reaching out to you on Twitter about it, but thought "hey it's the first one I'll let it slide". I vaguely remember it about the premium subscription, which I found odd. I was not pissed, just surprised. Was it push or local notification? I can't say if I can accurately tell them apart, in my opinion a notification is a notification. It was definitely not in-app as unfortunately I won't get to ride this season so I haven't opened the app in a year :( It was around Christmas or New Year IIRC

Also, I used Slopes as an example because it's the most recent one but frankly it's far from the egregious stuff others pull, especially Apple and the few other developers mentioned in this thread.
There is an equivalent JS API proposed.
The architecture diagram looks interesting, would love to read more about it if anyone finds something.
I think this is a fair and balanced argument. I'm not entirely sure if I agree with it, but you make a good point. This has definitely swayed me a bit.
>To what end though? How would you even begin measuring success in such a vast context?

Well, so far it's just mindgames, so while these are very valid questions, I never thought of an exact goal... But I'd recognize it when I'd see it. The best answer I can come up with right now:

First, I'd want to understand what components are necessary and sufficient to make up "a system".

From there, these components and their relationships would need to be understood from a mathematical perspective (maybe graph theory, but I'm not 100% sure).

Then, one could look for patterns in nature that reflect such components, and rule out which of those patterns are valid components of such generic systems, and which not, based on heuristics that were developed/explored in the previous step.

The following step might be to investigate how the interplay of a given systems components is mapped in human language, and how similar or topologically identical systems differ in spoken representations with respect to the different parametrizations of the aforementioned scopes [...]

(Etc.) - is this a satisfying answer, or does it just lead to more open ends? Anyway, that's the process as far as I've mapped it so far.
> (Yes, there are asset classes that're historically good at being protected against inflation. But they typically represent a small part of a portfolio)

Isn't it the other way round? If you invest in shares, real estate or even gold, you don't need to care about inflation? Only fixed income like bonds is bothered by inflation.

(By moderate amounts of inflation. If the country you invest in descends into eg hyperinflation, the whole economy is going down, so shares won't hold up to well either.)

Wait, someone bothered to put GPS checking? Awful, that's absolutely not required to license a channel, AFAIK only regular IP-based checks are enforced by channel networks to the distributing ISPs.

Was this on a smart phone / tablet or TV/STB? I used a similar thing to let my parents watch TV from my account -- https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22052333

I'm not sure why an ISP would limit the physical location, and also how would that work if they have users in another state?

I've heard about WISPs putting GPS locks on their CPE devices, but that's pretty useless too, they're setup to connect to one tower only, if you move it, it won't see the tower and won't connect to anything, so ... ??
So this explains the math and crypto part, but how does that tie into X.509 and certificates?

From what I understand we can put custom parameters into a certificate, but the parameters come with the key, not the signature.
So we have

CA cert + key A + parameters A

signs

My cert + key B + parameters B + forged signature from A

Now we can only mount this attack if we can somehow control a part of the parameters (the basepoint) that is used to verify the forged signature. Is the bug that windows is using parameters B to verify signature from A? Or am I missing something and there is another way to supply parameters with a signature?
If you have a 64 bit PID, and guarantee they will never be reused, you have just eliminated a whole slew of race conditions and security vulnerabilities, and can probably eliminate a lot of other code designed to avoid said things.
In those kinds of debates about whether labour is more or less 'exploited' than they used to be, it's easiest to just ignore inflation:

Look at the fraction of GDP that goes to labour, capital and land at any point in time. No need to adjust for inflation this way.

Or viewed another way: you are adjusting for inflation, but your basket is the entire GDP, which you arbitrarily set to 1.
These people cry on the inside.

Agree to text files. I would throw in Yaml to the mix. I use it preferably for all data files meanwhile that one would otherwise use json for. It‘s slower to parse than json, but it‘s incredibly simple and human readable (and writable), and will stand the test of time.

Use the GDP deflator as your measure of inflation to get around those issues.

You still have to worry about hedonic adjustments, though.
Quite cool. But I miss the part where you can actually use the objects themselves to store something in. What's your goal here? To have a real usable gc, becuase if so, it should probably allocate outside the Go heap, and directly from the OS? Also the fields should probably be packed:

Name string
Rc int
Crc int
Color string
Buffered bool
Children []*Object
Freed bool
isAcyclic bool

as those seem to have quite a bit of overhead for an object.

It's a shame. C made the precedence blatantly wrong so a few thousand lines of legacy code wouldn't have to be updated.

I did this for my parents. I got a RasPi 3 and a 3G modem, and setup remote management so I can check modem parameters remotely, even if the Internet is completely dead (using the 3G modem as an out of band connection).

I setup a VPN client on the 3G interface since there's no public IP address, and I connect to it from my own home network as a local IP address (which can't actually access my network due to explicit firewall rules I setup).

This way I can reboot the modem remotely even if the Internet is dead, and I also setup the Pi to reboot itself every night at 3am, in case something goes wrong and the VPN client crashes.
Nah. Yaml is a total mess with far too many special cases (time handling, many different ways to write booleans). I think it doesn't have any kind of formal spec? It makes sense where you want to optimize for human editing in the short term, but it is by no means a format for the long term.
that last quote seems strange to me. There are certainly instances where fast followers price lower and got significant share. The hepatitis c market is a good recent example. Gilead had the first drug and then two other companies followed shortly thereafter pricing at ~20-50% discounts and got significant share
I notice the Mail Avenger link at the top.

> Mail Avenger is a highly-configurable, MTA-independent SMTP server daemon. It lets users run messages through filters like ClamAV and SpamAssassin during SMTP transactions, so the server can reject mail before assuming responsibility for its delivery. Other unique features include TCP SYN fingerprint and network route recording, verification of sender addresses through SMTP callbacks, SPF (sender policy framework) as a general policy language, qmail-style control over both SMTP-level behavior and local delivery of extension addresses, mail-bomb protection, integration with kernel firewalls, and more.
As other commenters have pointed out, this only prevents counterfeit shoes being sold as real.

If that’s the intention, it would be much simpler to just make a database and print a code on each shoe (probably already done to some extent). Therefore when a user wants to know if a shoe is real or counterfeit, they could use the code on a website to find out if it was the genuine article.

That seems like it would have far more uptake and use than a cryptographic model requiring wallets.

Which alternative measures are you talking about?

The GDP deflator is the most solid alternative measure of inflation I am aware of. It uses the whole GDP as the basket https://fred.stlouisfed.org/graph/?g=nNsE and is nowhere near 6%.

I have the opposite experience. Setting up OpenVPN is as easy as:

wget https://git.io/vpn -O vpn.sh

* inspect the file manually for malware etc.*

sudo bash ./vpn.sh

You enter your IP, port, protocol, client name and it generates a .ovpn file that you import into any client and it just works.

If you need to revoke a client or add another one, re-run the script and it will ask you what to do. It can also uninstall itself safely.

I still haven't managed to setup WireGuard.

OpenVPN gets about 40 Mbps for me on the Pi, but my upload is less, so I don't need more. On a VPS, it gets about 90 Mbps.

I had the very same feeling, dgraph is older and has a larger community plus additional features like:

- geospatial features

- good speed as it is based on badgerdb key value database and ristello cache library.

- http library and other features

One of the advantage I saw in nebula graph is security role based access which is not available in dgraph until today.

I am very curious about benchmark between nebula graph and dgraph.

Also what is storage system used in nebula graph.

There are huge number of python programs which will shortly got very difficult to run. Perl still supports v5, in most cases it is easy to run old Java, C, C++ and Haskell code (in my experience). Python is unique is working extremely hard to kill off an older version, going as far as threatening to sue anyone who tries to keep it running.

I don't believe it would take that much work to keep python 2 in maingence mode, and I also think if the PSF asked for a company to officially take over they would easily find one.
It immediately made me think about CRIU - Checkpoint / Restore in Userspace [1], which needs to be able to restore a process with the same PID as when the checkpoint is taken. When restoring, if a process already has this PID, restoring fails.
