Thank you thank you! Similar thought process.

I _do_ think that enterprise isn't our target market. Any large enough entity should probably self host their stuff, in that case e2ee isn't as appealing, assuming you trust your own company.

In my perfect world all tools would e2ee where possible, however it's a lot of work and until lately I'd argue consumers don't care. Hoping to be part of the change
North Korea is rather a lot worse: https://insinuator.net/2015/07/redstar-os-watermarking/
Just curious: do you also apply this argument to the the gun control debate in the United States?

In any case, it's quite possible that making something dangerous illegal does indeed stop some would-be bad guys. The truly committed criminals break the law and gain access to the contraband, while the casual/less intelligent criminal is stopped.

You have to make a call: is the reduction, but not complete elimination, of bad things worth the loss of value derived from allowing law-abiding people access to encryption/guns? That's a difficult question because its answer depends not just on how much bad will actually be prevented but the subjective value you personally place on the good these things provide.
True, but the amount the publisher gets is negotiable.

Not saying that 30% is acceptable, of course - I have no idea what the margins on books are.
Seems like they just reflect all the UV from the bulb up and are counting on the ceiling not reflecting a harmful amount. With the right ceiling material that could actually be a pretty good idea.

I suspect you're underestimating the ability of criminals to obtain communication tools with sufficient plausible deniability to prevent detection by the local police after the first few prosecutions for that.
Eventually users will figure out, and they'll figure out faster if the tech literate tell them.

As an example of one of many things that are much worse on iOS, I share pictures of friends' and relatives' kids with them automatically via Google Photos. All but one of my relatives also use Android, and this works perfectly. One uses iOS, which doesn't allow background uploads, so I get pictures from them months after the event when they happen to have Google Photos open to reminisce, which is annoying for the rest of us, but a potential privacy invasion for them because we all know when they're looking at their old photos.

For people who use the phone features a lot, the inability of iOS devices to conveniently use Google Voice and similar proxies is a nonstarter.

For gamers, the inability of iOS to support Steam Link and Geforce Now is a nonstarter.

For people who value privacy, the inability to install apps or get your location without telling Apple is a nonstarter.

These are all due to Apple's policies. The hardware itself is nice, but because of all the restrictions, it isn't very useful.
What about cases where it's unclear whether the device is broken by the modification, or whether it broke under the modification? EG, early on in jailbreaking you could "brick" your phone - should Apple have responsibility to fix the device after that?
Can confirm it does
lol it may be time for Base_Emoji encoding. Good luck proving that my sequence of laughing crying faces and cats is an encrypted message.
The control is needed at this particular time, because the history clearly shows that the current Republican majority and their leader are not only unwilling to collaborate with Democrats, but are simply stonewalling the process (see comment above by @thomastjeffery). When we will have a non-obstructionist Republican fraction in the Senate, the total control will not be needed.
> Don't make an app that allows users to run unapproved software. I think that's a pretty clear rule.

Translation: don’t make an app that put users in control of their own devices.

I’m sorry, but I take issue with such user-hostile behaviour.
I’ve been driving Toyota cars exclusively over the past 30 years. I’ve been driving a Prius for the last 18.

I had really hoped that Toyota would come up with an electric only vehicle, but they’ve rolled out their hybrid drive train across their entire fleet now.

They have a fuel cell vehicle which runs on hydrogen only, but there’s a small handful of stations in the UK which means it’s pointless.

I now have an electric car in order which isn’t a Toyota and I don’t think I’m going back.

Many big companies (especially vendors) do contribute with people and otherwise--because, as you say, it does often help themselves--and most significant developers of major open source projects are doing it as part of their day job.

There's a long history of licenses in the PC freeware/shareware space of being only for personal use/educational use/etc. That usage-based restrictions did not make it into the FOSS world is an important reason that it's been so successful IMO.
I was talking as a westerner, culturally. In fact I have relatives who lived in some considerable deprivation and what you say I recognise strongly. I can understand it in those cultures and in such situations I can imagine myself that way now you've raised it.

In the west I don't see nearly as much (well, I'm in the UK to be precise) and don't actually see it so much in others. But what I do see puzzles me.

But thanks for a solid perspective.
That's what I believe they're thinking too. Except with encryption that's not one of the options, unfortunately.

My problem with nix is that it uses way too much memory when building. It's simply impossible to install certain packages if you don't have a lot of memory to work with.
It isn't "safe from courts" because courts can allow them to bug your house and hack your phone using the unlock code their bug recorded you entering.

They can't do that to the entire public at once because it's not economical, but that's the point.

No, a GLA45 - not sure why there's confusion, as a matter of fact I know a GLA45 is available in the US as well?

And.....well, I can present my maths clearer, sure. But I think you're missing the part where I said I had the car since 2016 - so obviously got 4 years of use out of it. Had I sold it day one then sure, I can't beat the depreciation. But assuming a well structured finance agreement you(with some luck) beat the depreciation around year 2-3. By year 4 you should be able to sell the car with some "profit" for yourself unless something bad happened.

I don't know the equivalent financial product in the US, but here in UK I had what's called a PCP - personal contract purchase. It means that the bank loans you money for a car, you buy it, it's in your name(not owned by the bank, it's not a lease), but you pay off what the bank assumes will be the depreciation over 4 years, and then after 4 years you can make the final "lump sum" payment of whatever remains and that's it, or you return the vehicle to the bank and pay nothing more. So it's in some ways similar to lease, but in some ways it's better(the car is always yours from the start so you are always free to sell it at any point without asking your bank for permission).

So in my specific case, I was paying £400 a month for 4 years, then the "lump sum" payment at the end of the PCP was set at £20k. I have reached the end of my agreement, but found a buyer willing to pay me £24k for the car - so I sold it to them, paid off the bank, and was left with a nice £4k in my account(which I then used to purchase another vehicle).

Now, MB UK wanted £3600 for fitting the new head unit(it was a lot of electical stuff in the car that would have to be replaced, tons of labour). Had I paid for it, that alone would have wiped off what I made/saved on selling the car at the end. It would have been(financially) an incredibly bad investment, as like I said, the value of such mod is zero or less.

And(once again, for the 3rd time), this wasn't a reason to swap. I have and am losing money on the next vehicle that is currently standing in my driveway. But certainly a lot less than on fitting a new headunit to my previous Benz.
Notice how you didn't answer the question that they're doing the same as the Nazis, and try to dilute the discussion by saying to take it to FB (which I don't use). Just exposing the hypocrisies of the far left. Seems some people can't comprehend it.
Love your definition. This goes to urban dictionary :-)
The EU has done a fantastic job painting themselves as defenders of human rights. Don’t fall for it. Democratic governments are representatives of the people and proposals like this only further entrench the political ruling class.

Oh, uBO doesn’t block the ads there.
I believe that you are missing the central point. The AppStore rules are unsustainable for people that volunteer their time and expertise for free like the developers of iSH.
My argument is that Apple already allows scripting (as they have already approved dozens of such apps, including their own) and my suggestion is a clarification of the guidelines to make this explicit rather than subject to arbitrary review.
AltStore also supports Windows AFAIK. https://altstore.io/
I suspect you overestimate the bespoke firmware-altering abilities of the average local criminal gang.
That's a somewhat consumer-centric view of the software world. But it's true that, even in business, there is something of a shift towards managed services vs. on-prem software.

However, the email has nothing to do with the post title. The email is talking about Linux distributions and doesn't even use the word clang or even llvm. It may have precipitated the change but it is not the change. Moreover, the Phoronix article cites the email, well cites their own article about Linux distros which cites the email.

> There is a sentence in I think Notes Towards the Definition of Culture to the effect that ..

No, there isn't.

The only mention of jews in Notes Towards the Definition of Culture is the following footnote:

"Since the diaspora, and the scattering of Jews amongst peoples holding the Christian Faith, it may have been unfortunate both for these peoples and for the Jews themselves, that the culture-contact between them has had to be within those neutral zones of culture in which religion could be ignored; and the effect may have been to strengthen the illusion that there can be culture without religion."
Disclaimer: I've made - very minor - contributions to the 2017 proposal to enforce mandatory E2E encryption (as a technical consultant, I have no political role of any kind)

How does that follow?

I am as free as anybody else in the EU to use any chat software I want.

This is just a proposal and ha no value in itself until it is approved and ratified by the single parliaments in the EU countries.

EU is not some tirannic state, or some hegemonic super power where when the president loses the elections they refuse to leave.

It's a very complex political institution, that works through official channels.

the proposal is public, there will be a discussion, years of debates, they did not hide it under the carpet, it's in the open so that anyone is aware of what it entails and can react by supporting it or opposing to it.

Nothing to be scared about.

And if the citizen of Europe through their elected members of the EU parliament will approve it, so be it.

It's the democratic process at work.
This may be a dopey question, but my understanding was that gun ownership basically didn't exist in China. The one instance of going shooting in China of which I've heard involved going to a special range in a major city in which rifles were chained to the table at the firing line. How do boats get away with this?
Actually these kinds of restrictions have always made the software "non-free" all the way back since GNU. Long before any large corps got involved.

OSS inherited this and was always very clear with it also.
Not sure I follow. The struggle politicians are in isn't to eavesdrop on everyone. The fact that this is possible is an unwelcome side effect. The struggle is to not lose the same ability (targeted eavesdropping after court orders) when people switch to e2e from phone calls.

If cell phones had e2e encryptoions so the normal court-order landline eavesdropping disappeared from law enforcements' toolboxes - there is zero chance they would ever have been allowed in the hands of the public.
Mostly agree. Didn't know Oberon was a single user OS, though I did read that Wirth was also involved with creating the Lilith workstation (he missed the chance to call it a Wirthstation :), so it could make sense that Oberon was single-user too.

What's so wrong with C pointer arithmetic, per se? I know about the issues with pointers in general, having used C a lot, earlier. But the arithmetic?
Step 0: discard unnecessary information and recode the problem to make plain what is actually being asked for.

A string that contains each three-tuple in order but not necessarily contiguous, and is the shortest possible string that meets this criteria.

The second clause of the problem rules out simply concatinating the fifty succesful login attempts. But that does give us an upper limit on the length of the string.

N[max] = 3 * 50 = 150

Next consider the simple brute-force solution: Iterate through the integers from n (to be determined later, for now set it to zero or one) to 10^150 - 1 and check each one. Halt when the solution is found.

Depending on the urgency of the situation this is as much thinking as you might need to do. There are several fairly obvious ways to trim the amount of integers you would need to check.

But of course, the generate-and-test strategy is overkill for this problem, and relatively uninteresting compared to the possibility of devising a clever mathematical or logical solution.

One angle would be to explore generation functions that might produce minimal strings directly from the set of three-tuples.

Another angle would be to set up the problem for a contraint-solver. I'm a little rusty these days but I think you could convert the problem to a SAT instance and use an off-the shelf SAT solver.

(As an aside, watch out for unfounded assumptions, e.g. maybe all ten digits don't appear in the logins. Do digits appear more than once in a given keylog entry?)

It took me about ten minutes to write the brute force python code, and about half an hour to get it to work. (The biggest problem I had was debuggin a stupid Python 2/3 error: map() returns an iterator now not a list. FML. Also, getting conda to work in windows with vscode was a lil hassle (use cmd.exe not PowerShell.) FML.)

I like the way you structured your blog post. Quite minimal and easy to skim. My only suggestion might be to give each section a small title.
One of the scenes I remember in "Catch me if you can" is that DeCaprio passes a bad check to a hooker (former beauty contestant, too...) and she gives him cash in exchange of the difference. You'd think they woulda learned!
When they have a court warrant, it's not arbitrary. I think some rights were given to the people to combat government tyranny (right to bear arms for example), but combating government tyranny is just not feasible anymore, due to a set of factors, like our inability to organize behind a common cause. Anyway, the choice here is reserving our ability to overthrow an unjust system, or giving the government the rights to catch those who might want to unjustly overthrow it.
Ask HN: How do you regain motivation after achieving financial success?
I got lucky at a few startups in my mid-20s and now in my early 30s feeling a profound loss of motivation to continue working or developing a career after achieving a comfortable worry-free level of financial success.

Perhaps part of it is that I’m not that motivated by either money or status or power.

Has anyone been in a similar situation and how did you deal with it to find motivation again?
True, but also irrelevant.
Yes, the 5X has a known nardware issue.
The common mantra of the cloud is still at play here. It is just other peoples computers. Yes, you can attach persistent storage, EBS or Elastic Block Storage, to an instance. Or if you are worried about the boot drive, your golden image could be infected and every instance you start using that image will be bad.

When asking about the cloud, there are 2 main things to worry about,

1) Can my deployments on the cloud be targeted and infected? Definitely, just like managing your own servers, you can need to manage your stack. This means keeping on top of security patches, proper info sec, least privileges for all tools and people, etc. You control your security, the cloud does not fix that, in fact, it offers new ways to screw up. AWS, and all other platforms, offer a lot of identity and security options, tons of networking options, etc. Like anything in security, the more secure you make it, the more hoops and red tape you put in the way of effective engineers that just want to get shit done. One thing that is easier in the cloud is letting any developer spin up some new instance to test something out. This is useful as it allowed them to be productive without waiting for 3 levels of approval, but it could be some untrusted binary with malware or could just be really shitty and cost 20K over the weekend.

2) The second thing to worry about with the cloud is, can the cloud platform be attacked? Absolutely yes. This was the worry with attacks on virtualization and CPUs themselves. I don't recall the specifics of Spectre and Meltdown, and there was another Intel specific one, but in general, they broke out of isolation. Amazon is very tight lipped on how they do virtualization[1], but if one of these attacks worked, it would be bad news. Just being on the platform could affect you by someone else launching their own EC2 instance. I will bet you dollars to donuts that AWS puts a ton of money and effort to protect against this.

[1] by this point, AWS probably runs their own internal virtualization stack based on something open source from a decade ago. This is so core to their business that they would want full control. They want to squeeze every cycle they can from a CPU to charge to customers and pack instances in as much as they can, while also measuring usage to charge correctly. I've worked on measuring usage to charge customers. This is hard and I am nowhere near their scale. Additionally, they probably want more hooks for debugging, monitoring, alerting, and as we have been talking about, security.
The details are somewhat unclear but basically yes, that's what a cloud provider/SaaS company would probably assume. So they probably just won't use AGPL code and if they do want to offer a service with the same APIs, they can (at least for now) recreate a compatible service that they write themselves.
Timing is the context, not the information actually transmitted.
But then you don't need a treaty, because that nation can blow Chinese vessels out of their waters without it.
That's why you explain that it's about personal and organizational safety. The ability to lock doors.

Make sure the terrorists can't find and research targets.

Make sure child molesters can't get at your kids.

Make sure bank robbers can't get at banks.

Make sure organized crime can't spy on the police and thwart police actions. Etc etc.

No, they embraced JIT sourcing because if they didn't, they would've been outcompeted by the companies which did.

It's comforting to believe that this situation is a result of human ignorance that could've been fixed by installing smarter humans, but actually everyone in this process was following the rational incentives erected by capitalism. If you want to change the behavior, you have to change the incentives.

I dunno... I feel like I should just give up on encryption and privacy and say what the hell, so long as you're able to thwart the terror attacks that are coming thats probably a better outcome than any notion of privacy at this point.

It's a sad world we live in.
So they have to make an key for the EU. Then the US will do the same, also make an key for the US too. And China and India would like to have the key too. Then every other country will ask for the same.

At this point you can drop encryption anyway, because 1000 eyes will read every message. Just WTF, and everybody said 2020 can't become more worse.
