Probably, though I suspect as energy density continues improving you'd likely always want the latest mass-produced tech for mobility use even if your existing battery has plenty life left.

The used car batteries seem likely to transition into stationary uses like grid power, where density matters less.
a bit off-topic, but would you have any interest in a barely-used FUJIFILM XF 80mm f/2.8 R LM OIS WR Macro. and also a FUJIFILM XF 1.4x TC WR Teleconverter.

my Fujifilm XT2 was stolen during a trip to Europe last year and i've switched back to Nikon since the battery life of the mirrorless was disappointing (due to the EVF).

now i have some Fujinon macro glass collecting dust as rather expensive paperweights :(

Well that's your problem. Young people are the ones who like going into offices. People with families and kids are the ones who like remote (they have something to stay home for).
Related How? (https://relatedhow.kodare.com/) is a site to see how species are related.

It's still quite rough around the edges, mostly due to me being demotivated for not having a good way to host it. Now solved with linode+dokku which I am super happy with.

It might make more sense to get a Powerwall if it becomes cheap enough. The batteries that go into a Tesla car are the same batteries that go into a Powerwall. This implies that improvements in battery cost posited by the article will mostly likely apply to Powerwalls as well as to cars.

A Powerwall would be always available. What if your car isn't there when there is a power outage? What if your car isn't there when you are collecting solar energy? You wouldn't have to lose power when you drive your car during a power outage.

A Tesla with this ability could definitely serve as a supplement but the cheaper batteries are, the more it makes sense to have one permanently wired to your house. This ability would be an interim technology assuming battery costs go down enough.

I think it is other way round. Young people don't mind traveling to office or at least mind less. They also seek socialization more - whether on the clock or off the clock.

When you have to take kids to school and from school, you feel time wasted by going to office more.

Also, also those chit chats and socialization in the office and after work feel more like waste of time when you are older. When I was younger, it was cool, because when I stayed late to compensate no one except me was affected and I got to look like hard worker anyway. Now, it feels much more like loss.

"The fact that Reddit is mainly populated with technologically proficient people, who probably have some sort of issue, whether it be mental, psychological. Sure we all suffer from our demons but the amount of stuff I read on there makes me cringe at times."

Perhaps back when Reddit used to be a niche site, it was "mainly populated with technologically proficient people", but now it's the seventh most-popular site in the US. The days of "fellow Redditors" meaning anything concrete are long gone.

You can see it's evolution over time from a site where programming topics were very popular (as a proportion) to where general-purpose memes are dominant. (https://media.wired.com/photos/593278f0a31264584499534b/mast...)

That depends mostly on whatever method is used to increment the reputation counter. If you disallow the "account" balance to go up from anything other than on-site activities or a one-time transfer, a lot of the abuse cases are mitigated.

Say HN comes out with a coin, and they accept reddit coins as a form of account linking. If I can only do this process a single time, my identity hasn't gained any reputation illegitimately.

I'm writing an actor system in Webassembly (C#/Blazor).
Once it's in place, it can be used with a rendering backplane (SVG). The ultimate goal is to make the actors be able to move to where they are needed (moving the code to the data instead of the other way around).
One important aspect is that the system is completely message driven. An actor can become anything by sending it a message. Yes, there is a security aspect to that :) It should also be compositional, in that the behaviors of it's essences compose.
Great questions! I'll do my best to answer them:

1. You can decrypt only one password at once. It's stored in memory then. Rest of passwords remain encrypted and they are also stored in memory after being downloaded.
It means that after webpage / PWA is being refreshed (or closed) you have no passwords (in any form) in the memory.

2. Passwords Fountain is using famously safe symmetric algorithm (AES-256). I think it would be hard use asymmetric approach in current architecture with staying user friendly in any way.
Please note that there is no server between this app (interface) and Fauna (database) and I'm strongly against storing something needed to password decryption both in database (e.g. private key) and the browser.
Becuase of that - you have to remember and protect your master key.
Remember that you also have your dashboard after logging into FaunaDB account. You can verify database connections anytime you want.

3. MFA is quite serious feature and this would need also server code which I wanted to avoid as much as possible - it's making creating custom instance harder.
Also - I suppose, I would have to force users to use an additional app for this purpose e.g. Google Authenticator (because I don't want to pay for any SMS service), which would make the regular usage strongly inconvenient.

4. Decryption key is stored in local variable (in memory) only for the moment it's really needed (from the moment after getting it from the user to putting it into decryption / encryption function).
After this tiny time frame that aforementioned variable is getting back to its default value which is an empty string.

I hope you have now better understanding of how it works. If not - don't hesitate to ask additional questions ;)

You can get something similar with back-to-front. You don't have to spend your time imagining.

With front-to-back, you mock out data. With back-to-front, you mock out interfaces. This is how I write Django projects. I write models, which I can start using right away. Sure it's in the REPL, tests, or admin pages. But I'm using real functionality with real data from the very beginning. Then the custom views and templates get added on top.

Not actually sinking any time into designing and developing a UI before you've walked through it all on a whiteboard, from the perspective of what sort of models and infrastructure are needed to support the featuresets.

Here's an example: Recurring events.

Sounds simple, right? Well, that's what I thought too, until I spent two months learning about what the "rrule" and "rruleset" RFC specs are, and how nightmarishly complex it is to implement a mixture of single and recurring events with granular CRUD and associated records.

You need to allow updating or deleting all recurring events from a master record, or just a single instance of the recurring event, and to be able to attach DB records to specific virtually-generated dates of the recurrence pattern (this one was hell, since databases don't allow foreign-keys on views). Even had to submit a PR for a Postgres library for parsing rrule's to add the proper support that we needed.

In retrospect what should have happened was try to alter the business requirements so that the functionality was slightly different, but you'd never have known that if you go front-to-back.

Yes, it's a very similar feeling, isn't it? Feedback loops and stimulus addiction are dark magic.

I haven't yet decided if it's absolutely unhealthy in the context of HN comments though. Just thinking aloud but I like to think that I've got something worthwhile to say if I get involved in a thread. That definitely wasn't the case on Digg or Slashdot way-back-when.

But if I'd comment less without the validation, perhaps they're not as worthwhile as I'd like to think and I'm just another karma-whore getting his fix.

Been following this for years, congratulations on your release. I looked at dat for building P2P services, but found that ZeroNet was actually more capable for "real" services - maybe now is the time to reevaluate that, especially given the improvements to large (both deep and wide) archives and the new hole punching.

Can you please mention your thoughts on:

- Discoverability of content in Hyperswarm (DHT Search/"Superpeers"/???)

- What happens to the old DEP proposals? (There is a critical feature that I need for my service that's still an open DEP proposal! https://github.com/datprotocol/DEPs/issues/61)

- What uses cases do you have in mind for this service?

Thanks!

> My source is anecdotal

From my anecdotal source, I've been banned a few times, and only once was it justified. The other times, the mods not only could not tell me what rule I violated, but resorted to insults just for my asking. There's entire subreddits dedicated to this type of piss-poor and outright abusive behavior from the mods. I'd wager that, from the perspective of the average user, the mods are the "bunch of children and adults acting like children". To me, they're like the DMV or TSA - small people who "volunteer" just for a small amount of power to make themselves feel like big people by abusing that power. Unfortunately, thus far, I have very little evidence to the contrary.

Yeah so Beaker uses a peer-to-peer filesystem called Hyperdrive to share websites. It works a lot like BitTorrent in that it shares bandwidth. Every drive has a public key and the data is signed in a log.

Since the Hyperdrive FS is read/writable from the browser, you can use web apis and in-browser tooling to work on the files. This even makes it possible to write applications by publishing posts/comments/votes/etc as files in the user's personal hyperdrives.

By default, every user creates a personal drive to act as their identity. We use that to act as a kind of social network, where the site is both their identity and their public data locker. The "twitter clone" is called Blahbity-blog, and it's very simple: it just reads the files you write to /microblog and merges that into a feed ordered by ctime. Typically you publish .md files but it can be anything, including .html (which runs in an iframe).

The p2p network uses a DHT (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DHT) with builtin hole-punching (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hole_punching_(networking)) to connect people's devices. You can also send messages between peers using that network with an API called PeerSockets.

“From Google”

“From a random employee of Google”

Everything about this is solution is laughable, by the way...appsheet and google sheets application made by some random dude is not a private solution. We have no way to verify anything. Google Sheets itself may be secure but it’s the human element that’s not secure: someone else owns access to this google sheet. It’s a huge, huge privacy concern. Why is all this information being collected!?

And it’s not even legit enough to have a static website. Apparently I have to read about it in a google sheet or on Facebook. Please.
I consider the debate over 0^0 to be easily solved with type signatures. If you consider the function pow(float, float), 0^0 should be undefined. If you consider the function pow(float, int), then 0^0 should be 1. The problem is that people view these two different power functions as a single function.

I do this using a catchall account with Fastmail, but I don't even bother obfuscating the vendor name. Occasionally they don't let you use an email with their name in it, which which case I add 'isdumb' to their domain and then use it.

It happens occasionally that they get confused, but so far I haven't run into any issues.

I do agree in principal that it would be better to have some sort of hash that maps their domain to the e-mail in a way that is easy for me to know but hard for someone else to figure out. Ideally in a way that is still reasonably easy to pronounce over the phone.

What would be really slick is to have such functionality integrated into a password manager.

I agree on the schema being the source of canonical truth. I also agree on ORMs - we use jdbi mainly. But I find it hard to reason about everything up front. There are generally too many unknown unknowns that emerge when the feature is more fully fledged out.
"No matter what you say, she will ask for linked academic sources, and goad you into arguing"
