Circumventing shadow bans is fairly annoying to handle correctly; you have to get a KNOWN clean account (which if it gets shadow banned, becomes useless without notice) and verify other posts. You have to wait some time after your post to avoid racing issues and there is some other tricky timing issues that means that this will heavily slow down any post (I mean, you already have to now check if your post went through, that's atleast 1 additional connection).

This can also be easily spotted and combatted by using a half-shadow-ban for accounts that are seen repeatedly browsing threads that just had a shadow banned post made; the user will not see random shadow banned posts, making detection even more difficult as you have to now cross reference multiple accounts.

You can make it arbitrarily hard to circumvent shadow banning.

Weird to see Louis Theroux on that list, who isn't that controversial at all, is Spotify afraid to incur the wrath of Scientology?
In my opinion the article fails to identify the problem and suggest workable solutions. Of course the "fake news" accusation would be abused by autocratic leaders, "campaigns of misinformation" is exactly the same accusation.

You don't prove a lie by banning it. That never worked, especially not on social media or the internet in general. So the appeal to Facebook is misplaced at best, dishonest at worst if uttered from a major news org since there is a direct business relationship and ambitions to establish themselves as authoritative voices.

I don’t think anyone is objecting to California levying property tax on property in California, similar to the Roman property tax. (Property taxes are a form of wealth tax indeed, but when someone proposes a “wealth tax” today, they probably specifically do not mean a tax based on property value, but rather on net wealth.)

Taxes on net wealth and particularly net wealth held outside California by non-residents of California represent a material different case in my mind and one which I’d hope would not be found constitutional.

Thank you for the great write up - I have only one question - how did you get featured on BetaList and Product Hunt?

Did you email them directly or did you pay someone to make a press release? I have had similar products but I never seem to know how to get the word out. Any insight into your first day and how you marketed it would be highly appreciated. Thank you and keep it up!

I think we might need more creative solutions to the problem of spam <everything> including online reviews, posts, phone calls. Some kind of PKI id verification system that every user should sign up with. Sure that will be turn off a lot of users, but the trade off is only the true enthusiasts will be participants.
TOTP is not U2F so it is not something you have, U2F is a setup with physical keys, you can have in android U2F module nowadays, but that is not TOTP. Keys like yubi also store TOTP secrets but that still is not U2F.

TOTP is 2FA so only a second factor, which is different device so you don't have your password and secret key on the same device. With your after edit scenario password can be stolen via keylogger and if you have secret on your mobile phone or just other it is a lot harder to compromise all the devices person has. Where compromising one laptop is of course a lot easier.

Secret key is sent over the network only once when you set up your 2FA and is on different device. It is also generated randomly with really long key so brute forcing it is not feasible at all. If you take into account that nowadays most passwords are available via leaked databases and attacks are just reusing already cracked weak passwords TOTP adds real value. Because even if you steal database with secret keys you are not going to be able to use it for other accounts that single person has.

In the end generating new key and just scanning QR code is IMO great user experience, to change that secret key you don't have to "come up with yet another password". Where ideally you should generate your passwords with password manager a lot of people don't do this. If you generate different password for each site with password manager you probably don't need 2FA that much.
Thanks for your expertise, you are very welcome to propose any real improvements, if you can ;)

LPC 2020: Avoiding Security Flaws
A hacker? Probably not. A random Joe who copy/pasted some random things found on some sketchy website? I wouldn't be surprised.

Also, what matters isn't whether someone actually sued as much as if some executive somewhere thinks that someone might.
Fyi... part of Rogan's deal he signed with Spotify requires him to delete his videos from Youtube by the end of the year so Spotify becomes the "exclusive" place for JRE.

I didn't know about this until a few weeks ago. Apparently, some folks have already archived (i.e. youtube-dl) all of his old videos before they disappear.[0]

It would be interesting to check back next year and see if these Spotify rejected/censored podcasts remain on Youtube.

There are some interesting compatibility issues around 16 bit floating point types.

It's nice to see north Wales crop up on HN. Moel Tryfan and its quarry is one of many in the locality. I'd usually call it unremarkable, but this photo has taken it to somewhere else.
>The first $10,000 is cash upfront with no strings attached. The remaining $20,000 is contingent on Tweet Photo making that much (or more) in revenue within 24 months of the acquisition.

I'm not sure I'd call that $30k given the current revenue needs to grow more than 5x over the next 2 years to get the 20k (assuming the acquiring company even continues to monetize the project). Is that really the terms?
And pipenv is getting better. Recently thete has been a push of improvement. It still has its issues though. Pipenv or Poetry? Time will tell. Poetry needs to parallelize.

Maybe, with a lot of effort to set it up like that, and a steep and long learning curve with lots and lots of idiosyncracies, because it's really ancient tech that was made for a completely different kind of computer, and you have to actually like living in a terminal and vim's idiosyncracies in particular.

LPC 2020: Protected KVM: Memory Protection of KVM Guests in Android
Sure, no problems, will give you feedback later, but here is one recommendation: combine group of booleans frequently used together in conditions into a new separate boolean variable. Say, for example, bool isMoving = (isOpening or isClosing).
I don't agree with the tax, I also don't agree with this poster that this tax is going after the "leftovers". The primary intent of the wealth tax seems to be going after unrealized capital gains. Stock appreciation that would not normally be taxed until sold. Taxing this is not wrong as much as it is completely unworkable and so counterproductive.

A better, possibly fast open/close design would be:

1. to have a motor roll open and close the bin lid.

2. the opening end could have a weak magnetic strip to "click" on that side.

3. to have the sensors to the side of the bin instead of on top.

4. my bin is under the kitchen sink, and I'd presume you'd want to hide your bin too, and so you could use a simple light sensor there.

All this would make it a simple yet super effective solution to avoid the bin fanning out odours.

This is (becoming) a good question. If Automous vehicles do become a real thing on the roads (#) then the whole caravanning concept becomes ... curious

- An electric battery / chassis that can transfer between "shells" implies I could swap the every day shell for a larger "sleep in shell". Kept at home or borrowed or stored or rented?

- As below comment says - an automous car could simply just drive the whole "sleeping caravan" around (not any money saver but suddenly the market opens up - people who don't want to have the hassle of towing a two ton trailer can just go and wait for the caravan to arrive (from the rental store perhaps)

It's really just hitting me but unbundling is going to change an awful lot of the real world

> No where does the article extend that definition to anything vaguely measurable.

Ah, you're right, I didn't realize you dropped the "speed of" in the "speed of causality" (because the "speed of causality" can be measured and expected... what does "expected" even mean in this context?!). So going 2 replies up you linked to Causality and made a statement about causality but ignored the "speed of causality". So nothing was said?

So you agree with me!

So what are the results with libxsmm and current AMD BLAS, as that must be for small dimensions?

The reason it's serial BLAS that mainly matters is that HPC codes are usually parallelized above the BLAS; why do you want the nesting? Swapping in threaded OpenBLAS or BLIS is something you might do with basically serial stuff like vanilla R, e.g. https://loveshack.fedorapeople.org/blas-subversion.html#_add... OpenBLAS threading has been somewhat buggy, but the main problem with its OpenMP support currently seems to be that using OMP_PLACES kills it.

The Blurred Lines and Closed Loops of Google Search
I'm not sure what exactly Scuttlebutt covers or does not cover, but an example real problematic situation that I have seen is like this:

1. The system among other things stores user-entered content;

2. User A has published sensitive personal data about person B (perhaps in a doxxing-like post, perhaps by making a fake profile with their name and data, perhaps including interesting images), and to make things interesting also regarding other laws in other countries, let's assume that person B is underage (which is also realistic and common, school kids do things like that to each another).

3. Person B requests that user A removes that content, and A refuses.

4. Person B escalates (the specific process does not matter much) finally resulting in you getting a legally binding request to remove that information about person B from your system/product.

So the key tech requirements include both breaking immutability and full centralised control; you can do decentralised systems for e.g. performance and bandwidth reasons, but fully decentralised, user-controlled censorship-resistant technologies can't be used because then you can't implement censorship, and you need that ability.
Setting to one side my pet forum slide issue - there is a chance current events blow up into something worse so your responsibility is to think super hard about what is right if that happens.

With 1b pages per day I guess you needed 1gbit/s connections on each of those machines? Especially if they also wrote back to centralized storage.

I guess there are not many places where you can easily get 4GB/s sustained throughput from a single office (especially with proxy servers and firewalls in front of it). Is that standard at Apple or did the infrastructure team get involved to provide that kind of bandwidth?

… and itis a non-reproducible setup.

The issue here is, that you are not storing hashsums and therefire are not safe.

To store hashsums you need a frozen requirements file, which needs another puthon lib … at this point it might be easier to use Poetry or Pipenv.

Yes, it's quite strange at first when you come to this topic with the understanding of money as something more tangible. I really struggled with the concept at first, but there are good resources to help with this. It clicked for me with the help of Khan Academy unit on Money, banking and central banks. The Bank of England paper linked elsewhere in this thread is also good. I had to draw up balance sheets and make examples for myself to really get it.

And regarding the silly example, don't sweat the details. Try to think of the concept of what my example is trying to get across. Let's say the grocer died and a house fire and he hadn't payed for his insurance.

Seriously? You put on a 25 minute timer every time you sit for work? Dude, I know I shouldn’t have generalised, but tell me that these things are anything but homeopathy of the mindset problem? I understand that these things can be reassuring/calming/satisfying but so can be the superstitious rituals in religion or the words of a healer, do we not condemn those when we see the fraudulent nature in them. I’ve seen with my eyes how these guys concoct stuff they call productivity hacks right out of their a and slap a polished 4K video to sell it.

I understand that all our wants differ, For instance I only want to have a decent grasp over software engineering to sustain a livelihood, but even if I wanted to master all of computer science, I don’t know if I would equate using a timer(pomodoro) or recalling the answer without looking at the answer(active recall) to mastering compiler design. I don’t about you, but to recall the answer without looking at the answer while preparing for a test or studying for a stipulated time before losing focus didn’t need a overly sophisticated term at least up until a couple years ago. Most of us did pretty well through our schools and colleges. What is this all of a sudden now, if not money grabbing, avarice, charlatanry, fraudulence? In fact, I would’ve conceded if the benefits of these sophistication were extraordinary, they are not even marginal. Anyway man, be well:)

This is also a good article on the subject.
