That would be a great reason to stop using it. If they never plan to use that data then they're idiots for designing a system that makes them liable for all that user data they accumulate in case it leaks. And if there's one constant on the modern planet that is "everyone will get hacked at some point". So that's another good reason to stop using Telegram. Like right now.
"Copyright" means the rights holder has the following exclusive rights.
The right to reproduce and make copies of an original work;
The right to prepare derivative works based on the original work;
The right to distribute copies to the public by sale or another form of transfer, such as rental or lending;
The right to publicly perform the work;
The right to publicly display the work, and
The right to perform sound recordings publicly through digital audio transmission.

Someone uploading a file, or downloading a file on a peer to peer website that also involves uploading a file is violating a number of these rights. Downloading a file(not on a peer to peer site) is not a violation of any of these exclusive rights. This is analogous to an unauthorized public screening of a movie. The the person who displayed the movie without permission is infringing on the rights holder's copyright, the people who are watching are not.
The W3C has many wealthy companies as participants, they should support it more too given that each and everyone benefits from MDN being the central place for all browser API reference.

I lead of Chrome DevRel team and we contribute with tech writer support and work on the PAB, it appears too little still but there are many web standards aligned companies that could provide more support because they directly benefit from MDNs existence.
> ByteDance has had a party committee since 2017 and is headed by CCP secretary and company editor-in-chief Zhang Fuping (張輔評), reported Human Rights Watch. Members of the committee hold regular gatherings at which they study speeches by Chinese Chairman Xi Jinping (習近平) and "pledge to follow the party in technological innovation."

> In addition, ByteDance on April 25, 2019, signed a strategic cooperation agreement with the Ministry of Public Security's Press and Publicity Bureau (公安部新聞宣傳局) in Beijing. The agreement was billed as "aiming to give full play to the professional technology and platform advantages of Toutiao and Tiktok in big data analysis," strengthen the creation and production of "public security new media works," boost "network influence and online discourse power," and enhance "public security propaganda, guidance, influence, and credibility," among other aspects.
Thanks Adontai. Agree on the video. Not made a video like this before! It was a fun experience but there are certainly improvements to be made there. Thank you.
..... Honestly have no idea what you're saying. I'm actively involved in the Compound community contributing "inside", but I don't think that matters. Outside criticism isn't automatically invalid just because it comes from outside.
Define "pain", so that we know if opiates are appropriate. (or we give them to everybody who asks?)

Define "reckless driving", so we know who the police should stop and who should be charged with that crime. (or we just give up on that concept?)

Define "nuisance odor", so we can fine or arrest people who make entire neighborhoods unlivable. (or we let a condo smell like a huge industrial pig farm?)

Define "mentally disabled", so that we can pursue rape charges (due to inability to consent) or appoint a financial caretaker. (or we just let the profoundly unintelligent get abused?)

Life and law are full of fuzzy judgement. Pretending otherwise is a terrible idea.
That is why kaizen is so nice because those are small improvements that you notice in daily operations.

The other one like bad efficiency I would just call "cost cutting measures" not efficiency improvements.

With kaizen you try to accommodate to what you have. So if Bob is slow cost cutting measure would be to fire him. Efficiency improvement way would be observing Bob to see what can be changed so you can get more value without messing him up.
Signal has the Note-to-self feature that's E2EE. Telegram's chat to self is not end-to-end encrypted.

Religion is an ambiguous term, which can be why arguments of this sort can get out of hand.

To some, religion = faith. And I think you'll find that most faith has little to say about science (and in the case of your example says nothing about the earth/sun relationship).

More commonly though, when referencing Religion you are really talking about Politics. Heliocentrasim, the crusades, Muslim terrorism, are all about politics, not faith.

When you make an argument using the word Religion in a political sense, but others read it as attacking their faith, then things get very ugly.

In other words you can be a devout Christian, and still consider the crusades to be awful. And you can be a good Muslim and consider 9/11 to be an act of war.

Most anytime someone talks about religion as being the cause of war and conflict, the root cause is politics, not faith.
oh, i think this explains why i think mountain view smells bad, i thought it was just the bay
We have a different focus than most chat services.

Zulip and others can only be used within one team, we want to build a system that can be used for all conversations, hence the fallback emails sent to people not yet on plum mail.

We also are trying to choose features that encourage less frequent, more productive conversations, not be just another chat interface
Or, how to train your AI to be a geek.
He explained his view on this back in 2018:

"There’s a rationale for this on console where there's enormous investment in hardware, often sold below cost, and marketing campaigns in broad partnership with publishers. But on open platforms, 30 per cent is disproportionate to the cost of the services these stores perform, such as payment processing, download bandwidth, and customer service."[1]

Low margins on hardware definitely does not apply to Apple (they famously have much higher margins on their devices than their competition), and the (paid) App Store exposure doesn't really match "marketing campaigns in broad partnership with publishers" either.

Not saying he's completely right, but I can see his reasoning and I don't think he's a hypocrite in this case.

Again there are many different types of tokens that do many different things. One example, there are tokens that help secure the network (as in proof of stake) and in return you get fees (aka yield on your investment). This is just one example. There are many others, like lending out USDC (token pegged to USD) -- you can actually get 10% yield. You can also provide liquidity in liquidity pools and earn fees (again yield on your money at risk).
$5 says they put it in a strange order like BRG
Somehow I believe not taking non academic advices from people who have gained knowledge from books. Take it from people who have been on situations rather than someone who has studied them.
Guess what building a pc is not worth it.

I am not sure that going to a site calling itself "Hacker" News and writing such a comment is not blatant trolling. Or maybe this is a sad side effect of developers using Macs.

I am useless at building things and I built a PC that has never given me problems. I even bought the wrong case!

The fix for some kind of weird power issue is to roughly calculate what kind of power you need and buy a decent power supply -- it will probably be better than the commercial grade desktop and give some headroom for future upgrades.
Decentralized lending is ~100% used right now for taking leveraged positions. Interest is paid because people have different beliefs about the value of the leveraged asset. I call that gambling. It's a personal choice if you went to call it something different.

I totally understand where you're coming from but in order to be better than Durov who claimed Signal had backdoor without any evidence, we can't say he's selling user data without evidence.

We also can't claim he's secretly handing all non-end-to-end encrypted group chats and one-on-one messages to Kremlin, or that he's an oligarch who made his money by spying on Vkontakte users. We also can't say it's extremely suspicious his arrest warrant only lasted two months, or that journalists who visited Telegram offices in Dubai heard the company Telegram shared floor with had never even seen Telegram employees enter the offices. There is no evidence Telegram is an intelligence agency front. None. We should periodically remind people of this.
Fair enough you say maybe but I love Clash Royale (by Supercell) and have definitely played my share of video games over the years.
From what I can tell it's a solution in search of funding. The problem is something they will fix later, often by pivoting away from the blockchain.
It's more negative for the flora and fauna I would think.
I'm running my rpi 4 as a kubernetes controller on Ubuntu. It also has wireguard hooked up with 8 dedicated server nodes. The SD card class A2 has been enough for disk performance, no SSD needed.

It's mounted on a din rail with the DINr mount plate and a Poe hat, makes it very compact and it fits in my small fiber network clauset. Planning to add 2 more for hight availability.

I don't draw distinctions between negative expected value table games and positive expected value financial games, and by that standard Mortgages and insurance is gambling and there is nothing wrong with that.

My point is that the nomenclature isn't useful because its not different than other asset classes, but absolutely is used as an indictment against this asset class and market. Whether you and I are personally pragmatic about it as a personal choice or not.
Honest question. When someone says the blockchain can be used for anything OTHER than financial transactions, for example - supply chain, health records, etc. what is the actual underlying data that will be stored on the blockchain?

When it comes to a quasi-banking or quasi-wallet system, I find it easy to visualize that the blockchain holds accounts with balances, and there are transactions which move money between accounts. Blockchain's decentralization and write-only properties help because no single entity can make your money disappear, and no entity can rollback a transaction.

What is going on with other use-cases of blockchain? What does a supply-chain system actually store on the blockchain? The SKU list? The price of SKUs? The stock level of each SKU in each warehouse? What?

This is such an incoherent rant about a tiny fraction of history of software industry. Being a developer was always being in a constant flux. The punch card developers were a different breed from the mainframe programmers (mostly women BTW). The age of minicomputers, DOS/Amiga revolution etc were uniquely different from it’s preceding conventions. It goes on and will continue it’s flux.

If the author had peered past the software industry prior to the advent of HN/reddit, it would’ve been clear to them.
Just an illegal securities offering.

51% is possible, but it only leads to chain reorgs, not the actual consensus rules.

In practice the actual cost and the uncertainty of an attack ensures that it is almost never attempted in practice for secure* blockchains:

1. You would need much greater hash rate share than 50% for good chances(forgoing the block rewards $$ incase of failure!), the social coordination is the bigger challenge, see mining pool distribution[1].

> GPLv3 would be even worse as you cannot provide Installation Instructions.

Minor correction: it's "Installation Information", not "Installation Instructions".

Bigger correction: The GPLv3 Installation Information requirement does not apply to programs sold via software stores for use on devices that the user already has. It only applies to the conveyance of:

> object code work under this section in, or with, or specifically for use in, a User Product, and the conveying occurs as part of a transaction in which the right of possession and use of the User Product is transferred to the recipient

A "User Product" is:

> either (1) a “consumer product”, which means any tangible personal property which is normally used for personal, family, or household purposes, or (2) anything designed or sold for incorporation into a dwelling.

This section of GPLv3 was to address the TiVo situation, where you had hardware that shipped with GPL software and source but required signed binaries so that if you used that source to build updated firmware you could not run it. The GPLv3 authors specifically tied this section to software that you get along with the hardware.

I've never looked into why they decided to limit it like that. Anyone happen to know the reasons?
The Pinkerton Agency still exists now. Unlike Blackwater/Xe/Academi/whatever, they haven't even dropped the name. One gets the sense that they don't mind the associations the name's gathered.
Signal will most likely run on dividends from shares/investments owned by the Signal Foundation.
This website is pretty cool, but I can't really find out what it is?

Humans are humans, anti-competitive behaviour spreads quickly from country to country. If you get too late preparing for the legal action, the anti-competitive behaviour may well spread without competition enforcement noticing.

I don't think it is the size that is the problem. I imagine it is like a routing table, keeping track which number is managed by which operator, and if India has number portability, there needs to be a transactional method to update it that is shared by all operators. I could imagine this being done with a blockchain.

Or for that matter, recording of call details for billing between operators?
No. Still not E2EE by default, still no E2EE for groups, still no E2EE for desktop clients. Why do you want to imagine Telegram magically got better when it's so obvious it didn't?
Of course not. You have to first admit you have a problem to be able to improve.
Ask HN: What data do alternative blockchains store?
Honest question. When someone says a blockchain can be used for anything OTHER than financial transactions, for example - supply chain, health records, etc - what is the actual underlying data that is being stored on the blockchain?

When it comes to a quasi-banking or quasi-wallet system, I find it easy to visualize that the blockchain holds accounts with balances, and there are transactions which move money between accounts. Blockchain's decentralization and write-only properties help because no single entity can make your money disappear, and no entity can rollback a transaction.

What is going on with other use-cases of blockchain? What does a supply-chain system actually store on the blockchain? The SKU list? The price of each SKU? The stock level of each SKU in each warehouse? What?

Further, how do the unique properties of a blockchain make it better than a centralised (or federated DB) for a SPECIFIC non-financial use-case (would appreciate actual details here)?
What the GP meant was that homeowners generally don't protest in the streets because they have too much to lose.

It doesn't cost a homeowner anything to watch Fox news, regardless of how extreme it is (or isn't these days.) Although ironically it's the left's identity politics that is subverting Western Civilization.

Also ironic is that while BLM protests brought attention to police officer abuse, the issue is with police union power. In a previous HN post I explained why that's unlikely to be fixed because of how the power structure between DA's and police unions is constructed.
You are correct that email addresses are identifiers in our system, and that emails themselves are not the core mechanism within the app.

However this approach allows us to have features that would not be possible in just emails, but still have fallback interactions via emails to users not yet on the platform.
Please just explicitly enumerate the benefits of blockchains in voting. That would make it much easier for both you and everyone reading.

That is an old system, mainly used by the USSR, and mainly intended to act against long piercing projectiles of depleted uranium.

It is more common to have active electronic systems. For example, one such system fires grenade-like projectiles upward that then explode in a downward direction. The timing is accurate enough that the incoming attack is hit by the shrapnel. Another system is more like a shotgun.

The more reasonable comparison is ship-based defense systems. The USA uses the Phalanx CIWS, which fires simple dumb projectiles of the same diameter as those of a typical fighter plane gun. About 100 are fired to destroy an incoming missile.

Adding an AI to a modern fighter makes it an awful lot like a flying Phalanx CIWS. You have a nearly identical gun with a nearly identical radar.
Yes but Apple has stated that it’s a special program for video subscriptions that other developers can and has joined even before Apple (eg: Canal+). The terms are not public but it looks like they’re made available as an option to developers that have apps in that market. It looks like the discount is available if your app implements all features in the Apple video ecosystem (AirPlay2, Apple TV native app, etc.)
I totally screwed up the example. I wanted list B to have some items not in A, e.g.,

echo AAA_not_in_A_xxx >> B

fgrep -vf A B

Result should be

Most Crypto projects are raising money via ICO route without dealing with VCs, cap tables, and board seats. Most of these projects will fail, just the nature of innovation. Few will succeed and change the world, I will argue that Eth (one of the first ICOs) already changed the world.
If they did not limit like that, developers would complain that this licence goes too far. Have you never heard of MongoDB SSPL incident? Do you wish GNU GPL to become an unpreferred software licence like SSPL is?
Self-build is only meaningfully cheaper if you don't pay for a Windows license. If you place any real value on your time, just buy a system from Puget - their support is first class and they understand the real needs of power users.

I see a number of issues:

1. no deforestation before July 9th.

2. In 10 days between Aug4 and Aug14 2% of the area was deforested, signifying all forrest will be gone in about 1.5 years. However forrest area in 2015 was almost the same size as reported total. Can't be right. Are you mixing ha and km2 by any chance?

3. No tracking between what is part of Forest Management Act, what are is part of designated production forest, and what is illegal deforestation.

4. No data on loss due to natural causes such as wind, fire, and no data on reforestation numbers.

Ah you mean reading communications of the opposition. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ECHELON#Public_disclosures_(19... discusses it:

'Congressional investigators determined that "targeting of US political figures would not occur by accident, but was designed into the system from the start."'

So yeah that might still be going on. Signal etc. make it harder but it's not like the NSA isn't hacking endpoints so hard to say if it's actually secure. We can only hope the next Snowden will let us know if NSA's spying on the opposing political party.
I got a Raspberry Pi 4 and naively thought that because it was ARM it used little power and didn't need fans. In a few weeks the board melted and now won't turn on. Was only running a few programs.

There’s obviously a cost to reversing transactions in the “real” world. Fees, rates, and courts all have a cost. They can (and are) able to be modeled in crypto as well.
I went for a ThinkPad 13. Add on the dongle for an RJ45 port (about GBP10) and you're sorted!
