Yeah, in the long run, breaking compatibility is totally understandable for a fork. And generally... power-to-them in publishing a free/open/quality SSL implementation.

But... the article also says:

> ... it is not possible to install both OpenSSL and LibreSSL on the same system.

That combination -- not-compatible and not-coexisting -- sounds rough.
I would say it's less about the compute resources, and more about possibly needing a team dedicated to maintaining quite a lot of infrastructure to replace the features that GitHub has, which is far more extensive than just git hosting.
It's also worth skimming the wikipedia page on quantum decoherence [1].

Quantum mechanics forms a consistent theory without any concept of randomness or wave function collapse, and decoherence explains how this evolves into a classical observation when things get "big". There is nothing fundamentally random about this evolution. We still use random numbers (wave function collapse) to approximate observations, because in many cases quantum calculations for macroscopic objects would be intractable, and because they give the same answer to any precision we can hope to measure.

Every experiment that demonstrates quantum entanglement is essentially just showing that quantum mechanics still applies on systems that were previously thought to behave classically. And none of these experiments have demonstrated a mechanism for wave function collapse beyond what we already understand from decoherence.

When I worked for "mega bank" a few years ago, even for software purchasing (because we were Anglo-American), we needed an 'ECCN' - an export control number for everything. Thanks US gov. Initially it was funny. Then it wasn't for a very long time.

Is it an X-ray machine? Does it use crypto? Is it more than 231 dpi? Well you can't export it to Middleeastistan.

Been working https://github.com/daptin/daptin since about 2 years

Goal is to build a opensource headless cms (did a show hn quite some time ago https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=17357616 )

Recently built one of the end user product https://github.com/daptin/dadadash/ (will do a show hn soon)

Plan is to keep the cms opensource/free and monetize the products built on top of it

I agree UK services are ahead of other countries I've experienced but they are still terrible in my experience.
That said I know very well some contractors that worked on gov.uk and they're top notch. That's probably were the technical excellence come from. The bureaucracy and process are the problems.

They're much worse than any UK private company or UK bank I had to work with.

HMRC is terrible, there are tons of error on the payslips, they mess up tax codes all the times, part of the website uses a previous UI and not the cool modern one, several functions need you to call and queue for 1hr or send letters and hope.
Having an accountant helps as they have access to a special version of HMRC they can use to do things mere mortals can't.

Childcare services are embarrassing and require you to have a subaccount in your governments account.
I've spent 3 months without access because they asked me security questions for the childcare service on HMRC; I provided HMRC security answers and got locked out; the procedure to restore the account involved verifying my identity by providing via email certified copy of various documents. They were extremely slow in replying (sometimes not replying at all), they never returned any copies or originals I sent and they were extremely picky about certifications so I ended up having to send 3-4 certified and original documents.

These sorts of stories (fugitive tracked via cell phone) never cease to amaze me because even the most technically naive person should be aware that cell phones can and are traced.

It makes me wonder why it still happens. Is it because their need to be constantly contactable is so great that they feel the risk is worth it? Is it possibly because they think they can outsmart the technology? If so at the very least, anyone providing security for her would know it was a huge no-no. I know some rich people can be arrogant enough to hire a specialist and then ignore their expensive advice but still … The mind boggles.

It's easy to say something is bad. It's more difficult to say what, specifically, would be better.

What exactly would "better managed" look like, in your opinion, and what evidence do you have that your version of events would result in better outcomes than the lockdown measures that have been used?
I think you should talk to him first.

Tell him how you feel about working with him, why he makes you angry. Do it in a well-behaved manner, dont try to argue, just try to explain your feelings. I know, it must be hard for you to open up, since you are an introvert. But bear in mind that in any job there is someone who you will not like, so changing a job might not be a solution. So dont worry, you wont break anything, nobody should be angry at you only for a small talk about your feelings.

After you pick up your courage and talk to him, wait what will happen. Maybe you will need to do it second time. If it will not stop, just talk to somebody else above him and somebody may find a better solution for you two.
I thought the same thing! :'D

I was very confused as well, since that's exactly what it sounded like.

That said, I wouldn't have been surprised at all. I was never more shocked that when I discovered that the trackpad on my MacBook Pro didn't actually buckle a millimeter, and was instead entirely simulated by the haptic feedback. Mind. Blown.
A global keyboard shortcut to mute your mic would probably be best, but otherwise system mute is not easily accessible in MacOS. The Command+Shift+M shortcut for mute in WebEx/Team/Zoom requires focus, which you most likely won't have if you're typing something.

Okay? How!?
That is a very elegant trick, I love it! I wonder what comes out of that when applied to a flat grayscale image - perhaps it leads to a decent blue noise pattern, or an approximation of it? EDIT: The reason I'm half-expecting that is because semi-randomizing the diffusion matrix reminds me a bit of Bridson's Algorithm, in that it mixes constraints with randomization[0].

And kudos for sticking to the programming language you love and feel comfortable in :)

EDIT: Something I never noticed before: a black and white dithered image causes flickering when scrolling on an LCD screen, as least on mine, and it amplifies regions with patterns, like the checkerboards in ordered dithering, or the regular artifacts like in the example image of the challenge.

However, your "randomized Sierra Lite" version seems to mask that flickering: it's still there, but feels much more like white noise that is relatively easy to ignore.

In the video you linked it looks very natural. I think that's mainly because the cuts are between sentences. Not sure if it would still look good with mid-sentence stop words cut out.

I personally think nearly everyone here is wrong.

Working in IT with a direct day-to-day relationship with end users, passwords are the bane of all existence.

You say email delivery or sms is slow, but how often is it slow for users? Data on this? I personally have never seen a significant delay for an OTP code to either my inbox or my email (Google & Verizon). I have seen users that have an old email configured that is no longer active, but, oh, 80% of the time their cell number is a backup, so resolution is easy enough for them.

You say it’s insecure? Really? So the more than 30% of your users that have their password written either on paper on their desk (most commonly a sticky note or in a small notebook just hanging out on the paper pile) or in an unencrypted note taking app is somehow more secure?

You say it’s inconvenient? What? It can’t be more inconvenient than having to go through a password reset process once a week (which believe it or not, a TON of end users do).

Is any one actually measuring this or is this as an complete echo chamber of nerds that are good with password managers? Because I can tell you with certainty there’s a whole demographic, generation of humans out there where single token logins (backed up by multiple OTP at certain time or event trigger intervals) is BY FAR AND AWAY A BETTER WAY!

You want an example of who I think has this perfected: Affirm.com
I wish Google took the high road when it comes to Android and let users create legit root accounts on their phones. Instead they seem to be emulating the worst parts of Iphone OS.

And no, root account does not violate any security principles. If your app is leaking secrets due to root accounts, your app is broken.
NoScript is my starting point, and I'd need to really need a site to enable it globally.
So many good nuggets in here.

Are you mixing up Graal the JIT compiler with Native Image the tool that spits out ahead-of-time compiled executables? When I say "Graal" I mean the JIT compiler that can run on regular HotSpot and is just an ordinary Java JITC implemented in Java.

You have to distinguish between technical standards and implementations.

JVM bytecode is a technical standard for a portable, cross platform, strongly typed ABI. Anyone can implement it based on the docs.

Truffle is an open source API with a clear specification for creating interpreters. Anyone can implement it based on the docs, although there's no reason to do so given its permissive licensing.

Beyond that it's all implementation: the Graal JIT recognises when it's compiling Truffle interpreters and does it in a fast way, but it doesn't have to and Truffle interpreters can run on any JVM including those that pre-date Truffle's own existence. They just won't be as fast. GraalVM EE is a for-pay version that does an even better job, well beyond state of the art, but the open source free version is no slouch and Scala code can go faster by e.g. 20% or more even with the open source version.

There is ALSO the native-image tool that compiles things to native code ahead of time. Many people use the word Graal to mean this, because it's the most eye-catching thing in the suite, but that's not correct. It's called either native-image or SubstrateVM. The open source version of this produces code which is slower than regular HotSpot runs but has no warmup time and starts instantly. The speed drop is due to losing profile guided and speculative optimisations, it's not a pricing issue. The EE version of native-image that you pay for has various other features like the ability to gather profiles using HotSpot and then use them when compiling to win back some of the speed, but not all of it - you can't really beat Graal JITC on HotSpot for peak performance. The EE version also has some other useful features for security and sandboxing.

In other words, the Java/Oracle guys seem to be doing exactly what you'd want to see: there are standards, specifications and then implementations - all clearly separated. There are open source implementations, and better ones with support contracts that fund the development of the whole shebang.

This is far from true. Unless Google removed the possibility of installing packages from third party sources, the situation in Android for *nix username is still far better than iOS.

Most of your taxes don’t go to things like roads or education.

Just wrap your Bitcoin into renBTC on Ethereum, and exchange it for DAI stablecoin. Then, deposit it into a zero knowledge mixer contract called tornado.cash and withdraw to a fresh address.

I think it's important to frame it correctly: US companies have been persistently acting illegally in Europe. Avoiding taxes (e.g. Amazon's Project Goldcrest) to undercut competitors, mishandling data for profit, and then abusing market dominant positions to prevent European competitors from rising up; forcing those potential competitors to sell to US firms.

You're right that it's probably too late to reverse all of this economic damage that the US has intentionally caused. It's a difficult problem for the world.
Remo.co | Senior Full Stack Engineer (Typescript/React) | REMOTE (Asia time zones preferred but fully distributed) | Full Time

Tired of working on a project that doesn't ship? We're looking to hire people who want to build cool stuff that millions of people use.

Remo lets people create powerful webinars, summits, live q&a’s, and conferences. It's a feature focused engineer's dream job. Team is growing quickly (we're hiring 30+ engineers over the next year). We've gone from step 0 to 1, now we're moving from 1 to 10 as fast as we can while not burning ourselves out.

Technology is TypeScript front to back with modern React. CI is handled with GitHub actions. Team is full of people who love making features that put a smile on users faces.

We're an early stage, REMOTE FIRST (remote pre-COVID), startup who's business has exploded because of COVID. Incredibly profitable even though we've raised $0. Wanted to join an early stage, fast growing startup with stability? That's us. Send me an email with your resume at "james at the place I work dot com".
My reflex response would be SEO, but without a link to the article that's just a stab in the dark.
On a much smaller scale I've seen similar strange/hard to explain patterns with a site I run. It's really only started getting any traffic at all in the last 12 months or so, and it's now a few hundred sessions per day, up from a handful per day a year ago. (Granted, I don't invest a whole lot of time in it.)

Some fluctuations are explainable: a bit over half my traffic is from the US, so you can clearly see the effect of Thanksgiving. Most of the rest of my traffic is from the UK, western Europe, and Australasia, so holidays such as Christmas and New Year stick out like a sore thumb.

But sometimes I've seen pages disappear from the search index, or be heavily deranked for a week or two, before popping back up again. Often this has happened after I've published a (relatively speaking) large amount of new content to the site, but sometimes it's not easily explainable.

I also, every few months, get "invalid traffic" warnings in Adsense, even though the majority of my traffic is organic search traffic that Google itself is sending me. Generally revenue will drop to zero for a week or two before climbing back up, and shortly after the warning will disappear. Every time this happens I check Google's policies and sometimes have to fix the odd problem. Mostly though, I have no idea why this happens.

The site makes so little revenue it doesn't even cover its own hosting costs so it's not a big worry. However, I do see the potential for it to earn more were I to invest more in it. Still, I've realised that I'd have to be out of my mind to rely on Adsense revenue from this website as my sole source of income.

I'm not complaining at Google for this - any money the site earns is a bonus and, as I say, at the moment it doesn't even cover its own hosting (which at least keeps my tax return simplier). Still, if I were going to build some sort of indie business around it I'd have to think pretty hard about ways I might be able to get multiple channels for revenue. Unfortunately, like goodcheapandfast.com, the reality is that the source of every one of those streams would likely originate with organic search traffic.
I hope they finally fully implement/hide most of the old era Windows UI elements. Biggest one I still use to this day is the control panel.

None of the examples of "socialist" countries in the article, actually practice socialism, many of them score higher than the US when it comes to the economic freedom index and other market freedom indices.

IIRC during one of the Obama election campaigns one of the Republican candidates said something about the US becoming socialist like Denmark, the PM of Denmark at the time said "we aren't socialists, we score higher on economic freedom than you".
A friend of mine who once lived in China quipped that maybe some low-level tech from the lab was selling animals from the lab at the wet market. Not likely, but he says given what he saw in China it would not surprise him much.

Let me see. You have a business in which you cannot control access to your Intellectual Property? And you take money from people for services? What can go wrong here?
I really don't get this. Git is free. Setting up dedicated server with redundancy backup is de facto the standard since SVN era. In this case I don't blame GitHub at all. It is responsibility of the business owner to make a judgement with all "bad case scenarios" in mind. In production the idea of trusting third party infrastructure without alternative is unprofessional.

Causal inference is only helpful is fields where an intervention is needed (like social science, medicine, etc.), which limits its applicability somewhat. Sure, ML is only correlation, but for most problems correlation is all you need.
What I find striking are the reported recidivism rates of Sweden and Norway: 43% vs. 20% after 2 years. Sure, Norway is richer and socially/ethnically more homogeneous, but can this be the whole explanation for this extreme difference, considering the two countries are otherwise very similar?
