That’s how you get officers fired up and concerned for their safety.
I agree that’s a high possibility totally, I just don’t see how we can exclude the other possibility as confidently as everyone else seems to.

Also, I think doing active research on something that can jump species and is highly contagious in a city would massively increase your risk of it jumping species in that city. That risk is increased if the lab is known for poor controls and was flagged as a risk, as the one in Wuhan was in the us cables.

Additionally if a researcher did get infected, there is a high chance that they would be asymptomatic and wouldn’t even know it was them.

The only “proof” that it wasn’t from the lab is the dna analysis, but that only proves that the research wasn’t altering the genome / that there was bio-engineering, there is still loads of research you can do without playing with the genome.
Weird, that was what I originally posted but someone (dang?) changed it to Twitter.
That was not my intention, but I can see how that would be the case. As I have seen several mentions of wrappers for Virtualization.framework, the common thread that jumped out to me was the continued march toward dependence on Apple’s provisions.

"is it more likely" if you want to base criminal acts on "more likely" then you're making vast assumptions similar to tabloid drama. You or I don't know the facts of any of this until it's brought and argued in court. People lie, prosecutors lie, defendants lie and neither you nor I can magically predict the outcome. It can very well be occam's razor applies, however occams razor is a logical fallacy.

Officers have a well known history of not having a warrant and acting like they have a warrant so you'll give them implicit permission to search and seize. I don't blame anyone for denying them entry.

You don't have to spoof an IP. Depending on the system you just need a text editor. Are their access logs under good chain of custody? How would a tech illiterate judge know?

These are reasons why I wait for the text of the case.
The existing JMAP bridge is broken. But it would cool if 'IMAP API' used JMAP instead of coming up with its own protocol. (Which covers a very similar feature set than JMAP)

This would allow you to use the api with any JMAP client like Ltt.rs for example.

At the lower end you don’t want to discourage saving of course, but I see nothing wrong with incentivising work a bit more than saving. This is not a radical proposal but a rebalancing.

Common sense does not mean uninformed. Informed does not mean correct. Correct doesn’t mean right. You’re view is very black/white.

This is the type of “is climate change real” argument that distracts people and governments for decades while big oil is doing it’s thing. Same thing happened with big tobacco. People centuries ago knew smoking was unhealthy but we didn’t have the science to prove it until 20th century. Were they wrong? Maybe right-wrong didn’t matter and not smoking was just the prudent action to take.
There is an additional piece of information which doesn’t shine a good light on her: https://cbs12.com/news/local/covid-19-dashboard-designer-fac...

A man got a restraining order against her, and after it expired she started harassing him again and posted explicit pictures of him on a wordpress site and sent it around to people who knew him. She was arrested and charges are pending trial.

This sounds like exactly the kind of woman capable of doing something like the search warrant accused.
I did the same but used a server coded in go[0], I don't think it's a security problem as long as you take the standard security measures that apply to any web server.

Your first sentence I resonated with. I think it can still work in the right circumstance.

Think I've burnt out though. Not just of programming.

It's kind of comforting to see BP on HN more so these days.

Nothing at all stops you using CDNs with IPv6.

> Also IPv6 is fundamentally not ready for real world use within small/medium businesses and homes IMO.

The protocol has been ready for 10+ years. I'm on an IPv6-enabled home network right now, and it works just fine.

As for the rest of your arguments: They're a side-effect of there being insufficient pressure on ISPs to do their jobs.

If public cloud providers primarily used IPv6, that would very rapidly force ISPs to get their act together and fix their woeful IPv6 support!

Yeah I meant some concept like "non-Latin derived" or "non-Roman alphabet" languages but then there's Cyrillic, etc. I was pretty sure "non-Romance" sounded like that right term, but not totally sure. I looked it up after and yeah, it wasn't. Actually I have no deep idea of the terms in this and just grabbed the first term that came to me. I thought I did pretty well and I appreciate the learning experience!

You don't need to "get officers fired up" to get them concerned for their safety to the detriment of basically everybody else - the training that they get from the likes of Dave Grossman is basically all about getting them "fired up" permanently. Numerous examples of cops going in guns blazing, shooting dogs that run away from them, shooting random people, throwing flashbangs like they are candy etc.

Thing is, nothing that she is accused of requires this level of force, even if she's stalling. If they want her so bad, they can just starve her out.
So it's okay for users savvy-enough to write Workers to bypass other customers' security settings - but not for self-serve point-and-click customers to do the same. Interesting. I suppose users of Workers are more likely to have a verified payment method and thus are less likely to be engaged in suspicious behavior. Thanks for the link.

A search warrant isn’t a conviction. You don’t need that much to get one granted and they had plenty.
If you want to keep using Google services, here are some Google Alternatives Alternatives:

1/ Google Search, YouTube, Maps: visit https://myactivity.google.com/activitycontrols to turn on auto-deletion or turn off search history, location history or YouTube watch history. This page also allows you to turn off ads personalization. There are many security and privacy controls on https://myaccount.google.com/, turn them on however you see fit.

2/ Chrome: visit chrome://settings/syncSetup to turn off Chromesync, disallow Chrome sign-in, disable automcomplete searches and URLs, etc. You can also change the default search engine to something else, but see point 1/ if you want to use Google Search. Use Incognito mode more often.

3/ Gmail, Photos, Calendar, Drive, Docs: "we don’t use information in apps where you primarily store personal content—such as Gmail, Drive, Calendar and Photos—for advertising purposes, period." [1] In other words, Gmail, YouTube or Search ads are not targeted or personalized using your emails, photos, events, docs, etc.

Disclosure: I'm a Google's security engineer, advocating for and contributing to some of the aforementioned security/privacy controls.

> Nevertheless, that incomprehensibly huge number is still an exact figure whose magnitude, according to Aaronson, represents “a statement about our current knowledge” of number theory.

This is, of course, contradicted later in the article in which they point out that `BB(800)` (or so) has been proved independent of ZFC; there's no really good reason to believe `BB(27)` is not likewise independent. There may still be a truth of the matter about the value of `BB(800)` or `BB(27)` (as the case may be), since ZFC hardly encompasses all truth, but calling such a number an "exact figure" is a bit like claiming to know the birth date of Julius Caesar down to the millisecond: Implausible to start with, and the closer you look the more you wonder, "what does the question even mean? Relative to what standard?" (In the one case, "of time"; in the other, "of mathematical truth".)

There are many purchase options if you want a new phone. One of those options, and not the largest selling option, as a product from Apple that requires that you use their app store, and follow certain rules. If you do not like this product, then there are literally far more non-apple products to choose from. There are both for more non-apple options, and there are far more of those sold worldwide.
They will still be paying Qualcomm for licenses but likely they will target higher levels of integration and low power usage. Basically if Apple gets into this area they will say what are the things that matter with cellular tech.. data rates, power efficiency, and connection reliability. So they will target being superior on all fronts.
It would be great if Apple would add support for running OCI containers. Then most people would not need VMs.

I don't think that an algorithm "designed to the benefit of the users" is nearly as straightforward as you think it is. We didn't get into the current situation because Google deliberately chose to make their algorithm friendly to marketers; we got here because marketers competed with each other to rank up in search results, effectively reverse-engineering Google's algorithm in an effort to exploit it. This would happen to any search algorithm that was widely adopted enough that marketers started trying to optimise for it.

(Google has deliberately slanted their news results towards mainstream sources in an attempt to suppress political messaging that they consider unacceptable, but it's not clear whether this is having an impact on the specific problem of commercial results drowning out other sources.)

Yes. Though IMAP API does not have a storage for emails. It only uses minimal storage for state caching, everything else is retrieved directly from the IMAP server. IMAP API also leverages IMAP server's capabilities for parsing, doing itself as less as possible.

Basically...but I didn't know to use that term! So thanks for teaching me. Then there's also languages like Thai that are not whitespace separated on the word level, but that use an alphabet. So...I meant more 'non-Latin' but I think that's not actually a tight category. It's actually quite difficult to come up with the right term. I guess I was trying to be too clever, the best term is probably "non-whitespace delimited languages". Thanks for your response, and awesome speed to index the dataset and have it up and running in the same day.

What's your backend written in? I'm in a similar position where work is pushing cypress, but there is no library for cypress in our backend language, there is for playwright. I want to do something in the frontend, and check the backend, so it would be nice to use our existing backend language for both so we have access to our internal library. I was told we could write a bash script and have cypress exec. Of course we can do a script in any language, but suddenly I'm seeing a bash QA library emerging at my work.

I don't identify with being disabled, but I have to be careful to keep my nerves from flaring up. For me there's a fine line between 'somewhat functional' and 'invalid'.

Two years ago, on a submission titled "Laziness Does Not Exist but unseen barriers do", one of you all used the term "invisible disabilities" [0]. I found this to be descriptive of what I've experienced since I knocked myself out at the lake when I was 17 years old. From my reply to [0], "I used to think I mostly recovered from that head injury, but I've recently realized that it left me rather non-functional. I'm making progress, but I guess I'm 'invisibly disabled', in certain ways."

In the beginning I went to some doctors trying to figure out my nerve condition. One of the tragedies of modern medicine [1] is how sometimes doctors diagnose their patient and treat the diagnosis, instead of looking deeper for causes behind the patient's symptoms. Such is the essential nature of a 10-minute office visit. I did get a helpful idea recently -- a PA suggested my one symptom indicated 'allergies'. My subsequent searches turned up better treatments than the medications I was prescribed.

Recently I made a disability-act complaint with the state attorney general's office about being discriminated against by a business. The main thing was they didn't realize they did anything wrong, and I'm not the only person getting discriminated against in that specific way. I figured that by making the complaint I was also helping others who are similarly 'invisibly disabled', much worse than I am, who aren't capable of figuring out how to stand up for themselves against societal idiocy. The state Attorney General's office was swamped with similar complaints. It was 1.5 months before my intake interview. I don't know how many complaints they decide to go with, but I had my story and documentation in order and the AG's office agreed to file charges on my behalf. I bet the business won't even remember me.

tl/dr: many people have chronic conditions. Sometimes people can recover, sometimes they won't, but I think it important to help people maintain 'hope' that they can do something to improve their situation, or find some insight into their predicament that provides a silver lining. Christopher Reeves' [2] comes to mind. Two quotes:

"When we have hope, we discover powers within ourselves we may have never known- the power to make sacrifices, to endure, to heal, and to love. Once we choose hope, everything is possible."

"You play the hand you’re dealt. I think the game’s worthwhile."

I’ve been convinced for years that the only real use case for crypto currencies is privacy centric transactions.

> You let the other side talk in order to create a common trust that they will let you talk.

Not so. Someone acting in bad faith is by definition untrustworthy.

You seem to want to equivocate. I don’t know if YouTube choosing to censor this content is wise, but since the content is false, spreads disinformation on purpose, nutty, and dangerous to democracy and the lives of civil servants, I can understand why.
In a proper system this is something that should be self-reported and not handled by the employer. An example:

$Employer gives you a form to fill out with your disabilities and their Employer ID#.
You fill out the form (if you get hired) and send it to $GovernmentAgency yourself.
$Employer lets $GovernmentAgency know that they hired you.
$GovernmentAgency gives a quarterly statement to $Employer without any specific information tied to individuals.

Same thing with race, sex, age, and all the other affirmative action qualifiers. These are really things that employers should not know or care about in the hiring process.

As it is, don't feel bad about lying on the forms with stuff like this. The system is rigged against you, don't give them any more ground if you don't have to.

> We’ve established that an IP address is not strong evidence for identifying an individual.

Well no, we haven't. There's one standard of evidence for conviction and another for a search warrant. You'd never get a conviction on that alone though.

> in any case, without providing evidence that the IP address is _only_ associated with the accused, and _not_ with any others with similar opportunity and motive

Because no other fired employee lives at her address? But that's not relevant because they got a warrant to search her address, not simply her person.

> I disagree with your contention that the fact that all users of the system used a shared username and password doesn’t complicate the case.

I do agree that it's not open and shut, but I don't think that the specific fact of the password being shared will complicate this case further.

Having the IP provides the linkage to her that is otherwise lacking because of the shared account.

> for example, any others with access to the shared username and password who might want to access the data for similar reasons, or wanted to frame the accused for hacking and put an end to the her very public/politicized efforts

There's even less evidence from which to come up with conspiracy theories than simply to blame the accused. Sure, it could have gone down in some complex and unlikely way, but why are we discussing zebras instead of horses?

And, any investigation of a conspiracy to frame her would necessarily start with the only clue - that the communication came from her IP.

Dodgy kernel drivers are just one example of user hostile software.

Given the past and current track record of the advertising, entertainment, and gaming industries, would you really want to be forced to install an app store run by any of them?

If this was purely about getting something like F-Droid into iDevices or side loading for power users, it would be very beneficial for users. Apple deserves some of the negativity for not letting that happen.

However, known user hostile players trying to have a go at people's personal devices under the guise of competition is something that we as consumers should be equally wary of. Because in the end, we won't be given much choice. Monopolies are not something exclusive to Apple, and big players will use their own monopolistic power to coerce users to install their privacy invading app store.

There are some questionable Clojure libraries, but Reagent is fantastic. Much nicer and simpler than React. For years it's been completely hegemonic in the ClojureScript space and it's definitely not going anywhere.

I've done React+Redux and it was a much worse experience than Reagent, which deliberately builds on Clojure's native immutability-friendly state management solution (atoms) and is based entirely around functions.
