> But if every company, publisher, developer may host their own, including their own OpenPlay Services, how do you tell what is a trustworthy source?

This is exactly the situation you have now with Android: anyone can install an APK from anywhere if they want to.

As far as establishing trustworthy sources, I would imagine this would work a lot like using Apt on debian. You could have a trusted package manager where there is some vetting process for getting listed, and you would trust the community to identify and report malicious packages quickly.

Also unlike the app store or google play, you'd likely be running mostly open source software you can inspect yourself if you want to make sure it's safe.
while neat, it's a boon to spammers and other nefarious actors who can use these techniques to further get around captcha... concerning to say the least.

if we want to defeat time-wasting and privacy-invading captcha and the murky ethics aren't a concern, then we should go to every e-commerce site that employs them, with full crap-blocking privacy mode on, load up on products/services, and then abandon our carts at the captcha.

maybe we can have botnet operators take this idea and run with it, despite the murky ethics.
I wasn’t aware if this. I will do. Thanks!
This is a good idea but with simplicity being the value proposition it looks like you have spec files that are roughly the same length as a yaml file I could deploy with k8s. I think it would need to be much much simpler to be more valuable, just my take.

> No mention of zinc supplements, which seems to be the key to make the Hydroxychloroquine effective

Clearly not.
My experience with becoming infected with covid-19 and taking Hydroxychloroquine, azithromycin, and Zinc sulphate for five days was positive. My total time to recover from first sign of symptoms to becoming healthy again was about 11 days. I obviously can't and therefore won't make any claims that my experience is the direct result of taking those medications.

Where are you getting your unemployment numbers from?
It's astonishing in this day and age to see people like you who still think it statistically appropriate to toss out absolute numbers for comparative systems. As I wrote the expectation is not perfection but improving the economic balance, since all general security is an economic game. That 1200 number is utterly meaningless by itself, the comparison is what the numbers would be, what the compromise can accomplish on the system, and for how long, without any of these measures in place. A major goal of iOS is to allow the general population to go browse around and install absolutely anything they like the look of with minimal concern for what it might do. And it's a good goal, sacrilegious as it's proved to be amongst techies, even if unfortunately (though unsurprisingly) Apple has brought along unnecessary baggage with it. We should and could have done better first and preempted it, but collectively could not be bothered (or even outright mocked victims).

I'm not going to bother with rhetorical questions about the state of such things on Windows, macOS, Linux or whatever because we all damn well know the answer.
That isn't the case at the few London HFT companies I've applied to. They had a clear division between quants and everyone else.
I think more natural language and context is the next huge step in search. The README has a good example where you find a section comparing two things. An example I run into often is trying to find emails or texts about an event. I know the date that the event occurred but I might have said "tomorrow", "tuesday", "the 25th", "2020-08-25" or "yesterday". These all refer to the same date can could be indexed, however Now I need to search for all of these with different date restrictions to find the hits and not show the misses.
A year or two ago I read a classic Sci Fi novel set in 1940s Oakland called Earth Abides. The novel featured a global viral pandemic, and a giant pan-Californian fire. There's also this comment linking to a prior fire in 1904: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24268508

California has always been burning, so we need a better reason to believe This Time Is Different than that new migrants have no living memory of when it Wasn't Different.

Nobody has replied or will touch how we preventable diseases such as cancer from smoking and obesity are paid for by healthy people and are completely preventable issues.

Every single example you use deviates from the original, more and more as unfortunate circumstances, but most problems are not cars crashing into you. It's mostly people killing themselves slowly though sloppy eating, poor impulse control and violence. Yes you stuck your hand in a grinder, now the government will take care of you forever. You were putting on hundreds of lb over decades of eating crap, you get free lipid medication, insulin paid for with taxes of other people. Thank you for gracing us with your presence, for existing you deserve the best. Please continue to live as long as possible, we don't want to lose an important person like that.
This is the system you dearly love? It's going to implode, obesity rises and healthcare doesn't care, they simply treat them when they come, and if you don't have problem already the hospital cafeteria will put you in there soon anyway.
I also think it looks neat, but I'm struggling to figure out what it is. Bootstrap, as in the CSS framework[0]? Latest release appears to be 4, what does 5 mean? Admin? Admin of what, a website? Some other platform? Is this a website template, with some built-in asset management mechanic like Wordpress?

> Volt is a free and open source Bootstrap powered admin dashboard with components, pages and plugin that you can use to create an awesome admin interface.

Components? As in, web components[1]? Or is it terminology from some other web framework, maybe React or maybe some language feature in e.g. TypeScript?

I suppose my question would be, what problem should I be having to look for a "Bootstrap 5 Admin Dashboard"?

Can someone please explain to me why smart people keep saying that we’ll just build software to detect deepfakes?

When AlphaZero plays against itself it just gets better. Once that spread is so narrow, every deviation is in the range of possible error. And it can’t explain WHY a certain move is better or why the picture is a squirrel. And sometimes it can be wrong, but only on hilarious edge cases, in the rest we just “trust it” because we dont know one way or the other!!

Once deepfakes have covered every possible thing that could give away the deepfake, what remains is dubious arguments as to WHY something is or is not a deepfake. It could be wrong or not, we would just “trust it”?

I am saying that if there a range past the uncanny valley for adversarial AI then once the generative network is there, it’s game over. They can quickly generate any amount of speech said by anyone for example, and we will not know whether they said it or not. All audio and video evidence would be inadmissible without watermarks. And then we would have to trust whoever made the watermark.

In short - mutually distrusting byzantine consensus or signing will be required for any claim.
> So how are you going to get "hundreds" of drones up to 50K feet where the F-22 operates?

Since we're being realistic, you could use the launcher I sketched out as an elementary school student. It had missile tubes on every surface, including around the wheels.

As much I agree Jane street is doing cutting engineering for their domain, it seems unrealistic that rest of the world is unaware of good software engineering in generic usecases.

Does the Facebook export tool preserve any metadata? That's the major annoyance I've had with FB photos, years later... none of the dates are correct.

>"Black holes are at the center of almost all galaxies that have been studied so far. They have an unimaginably large mass and therefore attract matter, gas and even light. But they can also emit matter in the form of plasma jets—a kind of plasma beam that is ejected from the center of the galaxy with tremendous energy. A plasma jet can extend several hundred thousand light years far into space."

PDS: That's interesting... Intense gravity (and solid objects AKA "matter" that would be attracted by the gravity of the black hole) going one way -- and a plasma vortex, equal-and-oppositely, going the other way...

If this article is true, then it makes me wonder if the reverse could be accomplished -- create a plasma vortex going one way, and get a corresponding black hole behind it...
Wonder if you could get a judgement and get the domains back.

Yes, it would be stupid. But is that what's happening here?

You have a ton of studies that says "no" and a few that say "maybe". But you want us to what? Keep studying until it finally says "yes"?

"Check this out, it shows promise"

"Ok." "Oh, it's not as effective as initially thought"

"Ok, but this study says it might be"

"Ok, but we just did a full study that says it's not"

"Ok, but this study"

And on and on. At what point do you say, "Ok, I guess we should move on".

It was never discarded out of hand.
I never said it’s OK for the government to control speech undemocratically like happens in China, maybe I didn’t explain myself well.

My point is: I would prefer the government decides democratically what can and cannot be told. And I am fine with a very liberal standard, in which almost everything can be told.

I am pretty much a free speech absolutist. Everything can be said in my opinion.

But, if limits are imposed by a democratic government they will at least follow some democratic standard. Limits imposed by private companies will only follow the money!

I considered this too, but never had problems eating shellfish. Tho it's possible that in higher quantities the allergens from shellfish were indeed the cause.

Not a randomized trial. In fact:

> Several comorbidities were significantly less frequent in the HCQ group, including cardiovascular diseases, arterial hypertension, chronic renal disease, neurological and cognitive disorders, solid cancer, obesity as well as the proportion of active smokers.

IOW, doctors gave HCQ to healthier people, so you can't conclude much from the death rate being lower. There may be some value in this paper if you really dig into the details, but the overall death rate isn't a meaningful indication of whether HCQ helps.

I know I shouldn't find that funny, but I actually wondered why you see demand for "square feet", like literally, feet with a square shape (I am German, used to the metric system).

On top of that: In German there is the expression "Quadratlatschen" ("square shoes") for shoes of very large size. I guess these are for humans with square feet. I guess such shoes are soon in demand, then.
There are already extensions for that.

Good tip, I'm going to give this a whirl. Unfortunately, all the network calls add a significant amount of latency even if one didn't care about privacy.
Tending the Wilds answers this.

The nomadic tribes mostly had an exclusive zone from the mountains to the sea, and moved back and forth seasonally, doing maintenance work to guarantee a good harvest of food and crafting materials the following year. Quite a bit of selection of fire resistant food species (eg, Cammas bulbs, which require meadows)
That isn't a source for vitamin D supplements not having an effect on COVID, that's a source saying that sunlight is needed to produce nitric oxide.

Looking online, I see that there is a hypothesis that nitric oxide has a protective effect against COVID, but I don't see that this hypothesis is any better tested than the hypothesis that vitamin D itself has a protective effect against COVID.

So, sunlight will probably get you the best of both worlds, as it would help either way, but there doesn't seem to be real evidence for nitric oxide vs vitamin D.

This is exactly my point though. It’s not a UI toolkit, but if you want to write applications for the web you have to awkwardly shoehorn it into one. There is no alternative.

It’s not fit for the purpose of building applications. I strongly support the idea of an alternative.

On Windows when using Firefox default behaviour launches Edge as PDF viewer. Now I have two resource hungry browsers open. I only have 8G Ram and if I also have Eclipse open then opening a PDF slows my whole computer down. I now download PDFs and use Sumatra to open them. I can continue working.
Yeah normally you would have some kind of CI system that runs a typical session. I doubt they load a million sites though. Also it doesn't really matter if it isn't perfect - if code isn't exercised by the profile then it will presumably just be compiled as normal.
There is also always the risc that you contacted it since the last test, so the period in which you can feel to safely not be infectious is rather short.
Duopolized. The rest of the argument still holds, and a weaker form of it holds for Google as well, since stores like F-Droid can't do everything that Google Play can.

I was outside of the totality in 2017 but only just barely. My friends who were in the totality insist that what I saw wasn't as good but their pictures look identical to what I saw.

Considering they were in a farm field and I was on top of a mountain with a view of several volcanoes, I'm not sure I would trade my view for theirs just because it was a little darker.

With that said, maybe you've seen an eclipse from just outside the totality and maybe it is truly different?

The article talks about a disposable economy. For most people, wealth doesn't vome from constantly spending money on disposable items (such as the article's mention of flat-pack furniture).

I think it was The Expanse book series that mentioned wood furniture is a rare commodity. Depending what path we take with the planet, jobs, and commodities, the same could be true in our future.

I'm outfitting my home with hardwood furniture. I think it's more durable, nicer, and with the right styles and finishes - aesthetic.

I'm definitely not collecting things like a hoarder to "pass down". I have a family member that is a hoarder, and it's completely irrational, and the hoarding is so bad, that the items are treated poorly and lose value. Unfortunately the tens of thousands of dollars this person is spending "for us oneday" will be absolutely worthless.
I know exactly what HTML is, I’m just not happy that we have to use it for something it’s very obviously not suitable for.

We do have methods to detect deepfakes and it often works very well (at least for any given generator, perhaps not multiple generators), but you're right, at some point deepfakes will be indistinguishable from real media. At that point I think the problem is largely outside the domain of computer science and we will need to start redefining "trust" looks like.

Ask HN: Good Network Simulators for Research?
I've been trying to find some network simulation software to play around with networks and software I've been writing, as I can't reasonably recreate these sort of networks irl. Preferable something cross platform (windows and linux) and free, although I wouldn't mind paying if it's good. I also want to be able to simulate WAN and other non-ethernet networks.

Closest free tool I found, was gns3. Unfortunately, I found it too unreliable and buggy to use. I've seen other products very close to what I want but don't sell to consumers and probably are way to expensive anyway. Most other software I've found seems to mostly be Cisco certification tool and focused more on education.
More importantly, Firefox for Android has a brand new UI (and more): https://blog.mozilla.org/blog/2020/08/25/introducing-a-new-f... (GeckoView, picture in picture, Enhanced Tracking Protection, persistent private mode, dark theme…).

That is not how stealth works.

It's not a cloaking device, it's a <1 multiplier on the effectiveness of enemy radar. Both sides will still have radar, and detection range for a good stealth fighter with modern radar against itself is going to be higher than visual range. What stealth does do is it reduces detection range to well below the employment range of good missiles, which means that the first one to get a radar lock will either end the fight then and there, or at least be able to manouver into a very favorable position while the enemy has to evade a missile. This is why fights with stealth aircraft in simulation and training are so very technical and one-sided.

Fair, but the original comment was setup as a scenario in which workers would have to return to the office, presumably against their will (they felt that their health would be threatened).
As a homeless former professional, I feel that getting back to work is vanishingly far away. 11 year old laptop, broken smart phone, no libraries or cafes or gym showers left... I just had a pretty profoundly failed onboarding for a minimum wage job due to lack of personal IT and the minimum wage pay + catching up on way-past-due urgent+important bills. And that's sober and barely homeless-looking except the 2 year old well maintained clothes (worn and washed weekly once, all bought while I had a good income and of good quality). My last in-person interview in November was rough enough to coordinate with a working but intermittently disconnected phone and old laptop. One must start to believe in a higher power at some point of destitution. I know that ended up on a pretty wild tangent, but this is real.
