I'm glad I found this, I've been spending my morning looking at libsodium and it's secure box function. I'm doing a refactoring of Socii, my social network project, and want to add E2E encrpytion.

Your pricing looks good and I don't expect to have users for quite some time, haha.
I agree!

I'm definitely an amateur when it comes to networking stuff. At the time, the _only_ issue I had was with all of my Digital Ocean droplets. It was confusing because I was able to get to them through my LTE connection and not able to through my home ISP. I opened a ticket with DO worried that it was my ISP blocking IP addresses suddenly. It turned out to be this outage, but it was very specific. Traceroute gave some clues, but again I'm amateur and I couldn't tell what was happening after a certain point.

So yeah, I too would love a really easy to use page that could show outages like this. It would be really great to be able to specify vendors used to really piece the puzzle together.

California law enforcement could choose to look the other way, but it's a statistical certainty that if there's money to be made through civil suits, there will be plenty of litigation. How do you get around that?
I personally wouldn’t consider that a compiler but just an interpreter bundled with the source. For example: Electron based desktop programs aren’t considered compiled (by anyone I know) even though they pack the interpreter (Chromium) with the source.
While true in theory, this doesn't hold up in practice.

The farmers here are constrained in space by roads on all sides and by the price of each irrigation machine. Many small circular irrigation machines will be more expensive and harder to maintain than one large one.

The article you linked shows how given a square area, the packing efficiency of a non-square packing order increases past 80% only after you have around 30 circles and even then the increase is negligible. It would take well over 100 circles to hit the 10% additional area usage you're talking about.

For farmers who want to make use of those corners of their field just use an irrigation system which can handle corners and make 100% use of their land.
okay what are the non-derogatory but also accurate words here? I am aiming to use language to convey a message for:

"a person opposed to new technology or ways of working."

and

"a person who fears, dislikes, or avoids new technology."

which is literally a copy and paste job from the definitions on google.

They are older than the people going out.

edit: ahhh if that one irreconcilable line dilutes my message for people here I don't really care enough about this conversation to placate whoever that got the attention of. I added to the discussion maybe others have a relatable experience. Moving on.
Second time in this thread you've mentioned the right IRC channels. Does one need to invoke some secret code to find out what they are? :-)
Sure. You can also do spreads and all kinds of awesome investment tools. But it doesn't really make sense for 99.99% of the world to mess with that.

Please chill out with the attacks, this is an idea I'm not selling anything. There's a multi-page doc describing it in detail, not vague at all.

Threat Models enhancement over Signal described in the doc:

## Threat Model

One set of threats this protects agains is any for which people would use Signal for: encrypted security. Also consider the threat in case a Messenger is compelled by the its local government to leak keys on the client (say through an app update) or server by warrant, or there is a rogue employee at Messenger company who compromises.

Often a high security environment will compile its own version of Signal's open source client, however it will be days or weeks old and have published vulnerabilities. Horcruxes would allow the high security user to send 1 horcrux on the custom compiled Signal version, and another horcrux on the public app store version (in addition to others), thus increasing the cost significantly of hacking all horcruxes.
Ask HN: What software products do you pay for that you like the least?
Came across this thread on twitter: https://twitter.com/hnshah/status/1119426019494989824?lang=en asking the same question. Curious to hear HN's answer.
If this is a conversation you're willing to have (and kudos for that, and I'm glad you're previously aware of the issue), it's something I'd love to help discuss - I'm a software dev as well, so I understand how the concept of the functionality is well suited for the metaphor - however, I'm positive another solution could be found. :) And, again, it'll of course be great PR and could draw some positive attention to the service. I've made a throwaway email - psyche at theoic dot me - as obviously the nature of HN makes it difficult to communicate here.

I'd love to just offer a little bit of help, brainstorm for a bit, and I think it's fantastic that you're aware of the issue and wanting to take the steps forward. Knowing is half the battle. ;)

I appreciate the response, regardless of anything - I know it might seem like an extreme response without context, but Potter truly has been an extremely hot button issue lately.
Academia is obsessed with "novelty" which is a weaker form of originality. Very frequently there are ideas which are an obvious next step to everyone in the field, but the first person to actually implement and publish it is the one who will get the credit / future citations. I wouldn't consider those kinds of ideas original because many people already independently conceived them and are working on implementing them, but they are novel in that they haven't been instantiated before.

>Indian population is brainwashed by the party with which FB sided

Just because the Indian population has realized what rubbish the Indian Congress party, it's affiliates were ( basically a KGB satellite) doesn't mean they are brainwashed.

Just because Indian population doesn't like the game where all the money is for select few and rest are all poor ( communism) doesn't mean it's brainwashed.

Just because Indian population doesn't reward the those who refuse to condemn the ethnic cleansing of pagans/non monotheists doesn't mean it's brainwashed.

Just people you can label Indian population as brainwashed doesn't mean it is.
Yes that's the point. Now that Gone Girl is a phenomenal success, every unreliable narrator book will be "copy cat" of gone girl

> quantum states cannot be copied

Wouldn't quantum entanglement enable a comparable ability?
The part that seems the most dubious to me is the "choice":

> 2. It is possible to make free choices, or at least, statistically random choices.

I don't see what would be really compelling in that.

If it's false it would just mean that our actions are all kind of mechanistically decided by other events, and that does not shock me.

Other point:

> 1. When someone observes an event happening, it really happened.

What if it really happened in the reality of the observer (and maybe not in other realities)? What is meant by "reality"? Some insight is to be gained by precising what we call the reality, in relation to the corpus of all the observations in what we believe is our universe.

Ok, so make classical pointers to quantum states and copy the pointers instead of the quantum states :)
Based on the other thread from yesterday, I wouldn’t jump to conclusions and pin the blame 100% to the former engineer. For such a large company, why the hell did they not put in safeguards to prevent former employees from accessing production environments? The vulnerability wasn’t like a week or two... it was 5 whole months.

The problem is the magic wand is a single endpoint which will also have 0-days now, and in the future. Since the endpoint is connected to the network (at least you don't talk about airgaps in your work), there's a bidirectional malware insertion and plaintext exfiltration channel. I don't see how this solves anything.
The current biggest fires are not in the Sierra Nevada and the ones in the coastal range tend to burn more structures because there are more of them, but there are also many large fires in the Sierra Nevada at the moment. Check out this map[1] from Cal Fire. Almost no media coverage for the Sierra Nevada fires though.
This feature doesn't facilitate you at all. It's a historical mistake that macOS and Windows have preserved, and refined a bit over the years.

The only real purpose of this is for easier/faster compatibility with software developed and tested on macOS and Windows, which has accidental case inconsistency in file name references in the code, which happens to work fine on macOS and Windows.

TFA could have made that argument, but it didn't, it made incorrect arguments instead. For example, a user might type in a lower-case name for a file one time, and a capitalized name for a file another time, and intend to access the same file. But what user is typing in a whole filename the second time? They're picking it from a list, or if they're very advanced, using completion in a terminal. TFA also mentions non-English languages, in the context of unicode normalization ... but non-western-european languages won't be handled correctly by any universal case-folding algorithm anyway, with Turkish being the most common example.

The whole strategy just doesn't work out well. Many low-level filesystem developers have known this for over 20 years. It doesn't work better for anyone, but non-technical people just aren't aware of why or how it increases complexity and costs, and reduces performance and reliability.
Misread the headline as "Level 3 Global Outrage" and thought "someone had defined outrage levels?" and "it doesn't matter, he'll just attribute it to the Deep State".

In some ways I'm a little bit disappointed it's only a glitch in the internet.
There are these type of linear irrigation devices that will cover square/rectangular fields more completely: https://www.valleyirrigation.com/linears . In practice I don't think super optimal land use is very critical for most farmers though, when compared to the additional cost for acquiring and maintaining more complex irrigators.
The Remains of the Day isn't just my favorite book from Ishiguro. It is my favorite book, period.

It is a book about many things, but one of the main themes is regret. As a younger person, I thought I would end up following the trajectory of Stevens. The narrative matched mine so much that I thought it was a description of an inexorable path in life that someone like me was bound to follow. As I got older, I realized the opposite: that Stevens was an anti-hero, that I did NOT have to follow the his trajectory, and that I had the agency to make different choices in life. In that way, the book's anti-message guides me today.

p.s. with regards to Ishiguro, despite liking RotD, I didn't care for any of his other works. I didn't like Never Let me Go (which was highly acclaimed), nor the Buried Giant, nor When we were Orphans. Admittedly I have not read "An Artist of the Floating World".

>At least the Mac Finder allows changing the case of a filename. Windows File Explorer simply refuses

Just tested on Windows 10 and this is definitely not true. I could have sworn you could always do it, but my memory of Windows < 10 is foggy.
And you can also do the renaming from any console app (cmd, powershell, etc), FYI.

NTFS is case-preserving, but case-insensitive. That, IMO is a good balance. When they were first making NT with the posix subsystem, I suppose they found that the number of cases where two files that only differed in case lived in the same directory were small enough to not matter.

I personally don't think case-sensitivity in file names adds anything useful.

In other words, quantum mechanics is incompatible with free will. This is clearly shocking to any physicist who believes in Free Will (as defined by philosophers thousands of years ago). But hasn't Free Will been recognized as nonsense for at least two centuries by now?
But there are also us who are simply outside the size range any chair is designed for (I've generally been at 90-95kg at 195cm before hurting my back and limiting sports). Unfortunately, but expensive chairs are then usually the only way to go if you want to get a comparable experience to what "average size" humans get with "any chair". I can easily imagine short people having similar problems on the other end of the scale (hurting thighs because their feet can't reach the ground), or simply disproportionate people too.

There is no amount of exercise that will let any human hold a squat position for 8 hours day-in, day-out.

There’s no civil prosecution. Civil means it’s a private injury which the law can remedy. Anyone who has the standing to sue can sue, and that doesn’t make them a prosecutor.
That only prevents attackers who read the current symmetric key from reading past messages. That won't protect you against the disclosure of a private key involved in the prior key exchange. https://doc.libsodium.org/key_exchange

The only way to achieve true forward secrecy is to throw away the private half of the involved key pairs. You need ephemeral keys. Which Libsodium does not provide out of the box. You'd need something like Noise. https://noiseprotocol.org/

This is from a security expert who looked at this and told me. Are you saying that nobody ever compiles their own Signal client?

I think you're still missing one of the points: if you use a separate app, OS, and device platform (as shown in the diagram) then it would increase cost of 0-days linearly, since you'd need to get a 0-day for each horcrux. Does that make sense now?

I'd appreciate you not be dismissive in tone, please. I have had multiple security experts look at this, so if you think it's dumb then it's probably that you missed a part and not that it's dumb.

Horcruxes are just a layer of security.

Sure, but the problem it solves is not the problem that needs addressing. Ciphertext and key delivery can already be done safely with E2EE apps like Signal. Metadata can be eliminated with e.g. Tor Onion Services.

Your apps relies on QR-codes to exchange data, the same channel can be used to authenticate Signal endpoints and/or exchange PSKs, no need for SSS. Goal for information theoretic security is fine but considering nobody is doing CT-only attacks against modern algorithms anyway, the easiest attack vector will be MITM attack or remote key exfiltration. E.g. Snowden has been very vocal in the past about NSAs of the world hacking endpoints, but has quieted a bit down wrt the matter, perhaps he realized that was too high bar for average users who still benefit from incremental security from Signal etc.
The problem is not only new construction but what to do, and what policies to have, about all the people and capital tied up in forested communities already. For example Paradise is actually a pretty decent-sized town basically in the forest; it should be obvious just looking at it on the satellite that it’s going to be affected by fires frequently. I doubt it’s politically tenable to have the policy become to just let places like that burn down or even to make them cut down the forests (which to them is the draw of living there). Just look at the Wikipedia page about what Paradise was going to do after the fire: focus on fire resistant construction and wider roads for evacuations. No measures from preventing the same thing from occurring again and again

For the uninitiated and otherwise unaware, many studies regarding illnesses, disease, nutrition, exercise, medicine, etc. perform clinical trials with mice.

Mice are, notably, not humans and the results don't (in fact, rarely ever) carry over 1:1.

The plot thickens. As I reported elsewhere in the thread, the slow code paths were selected on my machine, unless I override the mkl_serv_intel_cpu_true function to always return true. However, this was with PyTorch.

I have now also compiled the ACE DGEMM benchmark and linked against MKL iomp:

$ ./mt-dgemm 1000 | grep GFLOP
GFLOP/s rate: 69.124168 GF/s

Most-used function is

mt-dgemm libmkl_def.so [.] mkl_blas_def_dgemm_kernel_zen

So, it is clearly using a GEMM kernel. Now I wonder what is different between PyTorch and this simple benchmark, causing PyTorch to result in a slow SSE code path.
