It's easy to underestimate just how difficult processor design is and just how quickly it has advanced over the last few decades.

First you have to design an incredibly complex custom hardware processor to implement your ISA of choice with various speed optimisations. Then you have to convert it to a gate-level model and simulate it to make sure it's reliable.

Then you have to produce a physical/electromagnetic model which juggles capacitance, loading, switching transients, transmission line reflections, and interconnect length, and somehow still works for all possible conditions with good tolerances to maximise yield.

Then you have to handle all the visual/UV/soft X-ray optics, diffusion chemistry, and process management to build the wafers at scale.

It's not a particularly clean or sustainable industry. But even so - the finished chips are the absolute pinnacle of many simultaneous engineering and management disciplines.
You have to pay a hefty price for real time info.
The discussion here is a lot about 'deep fakes' and where will we be if we can't distinguish fake from real, but this is so obviously fake that I fear we might not care at all.

Even if it were a real young woman, why would anyone look at those obviously fake images? It is like someone from the 90s used paint to paste a random image on some random biker's head.

Also, why go through the trouble of having that hair and a real bike to begin with if the audience's sense for what is real is so low? You might as well take random images of empty parking lots and copy paste random bikes with random bodies and a young Japanese woman's face on them and it would look the same or better.

Very few tools designed today have any features that facilitate learning. Developers don't understand how learning works and don't really care. Operating systems mostly washed their hands of this issue as well. It's a mess.

Ask HN: Single-factor authentication via email – good idea or not?
Background: I am attempting to create a very minimal website for my company written in Rust (yay!). All it does is list products and accept orders with no community or user submitted content beyond payment data (handled via stripe and I only save shipping info). I am using the Rocket framework which doesn't seem to have this baked in yet.

The problem: I need a way to let previous customers recover order information and print invoices, but I personally hate being forced to create user accounts on websites just for this purpose. I also didn't want to deal with user passwords and account recovery (hey I said it was minimal!).

The scheme I've come up with and tested successfully so far in my dev environment, is to let customers type their email address that they used to make orders orders and send them a time-limited one-time login key via email (it could also come via text using their number if I ever figure that one out).

This in theory verifies they control that email address, and once logged in they can see previous order information.

That's pretty much it, but seeing as how I've never seen this type of thing available before in my Django or Flask experience, I wanted to see if I was in fact making some kind of huge mistake from a security or convenience perspective. The last thing I'd want to do is compromise the security of clients' information, or make a system that is too annoying to use.

I am also trying to be reasonable because it's not like I'm storing vast amounts of personal information or payment credentials.

I would also like to think about open sourcing my solution or submitting it as an add-on to Rocket, but I need a gut check first.

thanks!
You said it. European culture. PoC have lived in Europe for ages. So, no, you can't say 'European/white', as that erases huge groups of people and is factually wrong.

I did the same after constantly yelling at docker. It’s amazing what vscode has been able to pull off to make ssh feel local. I’ve tried other solutions before and they’ve all had noticeable lag. The only time I notice is if I’m remote and on a cell connection or airplane.

The one thing I wish they’d improve was re-establishing a connection after the computer sleeps. Really annoying to have to reload the entire window, sometimes.

Its strange because random old people channels produce great content. Its just that, most of them don't try to be annoying influencers. I follow some old dude who repairs his motorcycle and writes music. He doesnt talk, and its great.
This goes to show how dangerous deep fakes can be when people are willing to believe. Several people had called him out already, and they had provided evidence, but thousands of people still believed he was a young woman.

Twitter, decide what you are:

1. Are you an infrastructure? In that case you censor nothing but probably give users tools to manage their own censorship (like "remove suspected bot content" "remove tagged hate speech" options)

2. Are you a media? And in that case you have an editorial line, that you apply TO EVERYBODY. Or you state that world leader (or which world leaders) get a free pass. You make it explicit.

You can't be the first one for leaders and the second one for random individuals. Be coherent.

Let's be real, we are mostly talking about Trump here. To this day, I am not sure if it was just simple selfish greed or higher twitter instances aligning with his opinions, but there was an anomaly, an incoherence in your stance.

If you want to fix the cynical image you are trying to get, choose a coherent stance and stick to it, EVEN IF THAT MAKES YOU LOSE MONEY. Or accept that you are a cynical entity.

It sounds like this only applies to decentralized exchanges, eg where exchanges exist on the blockchain and require smart contract execution for trades to take place - ergo this should quite obviously create the opportunity for these front runners to exist and make money. It's confusing because this isn't really specified - it's not possible to do this on Binance or other centralised exchanges as I understand.
It was relatively minor, but it was a lot more relevant to Twitter because it happened in the country where most of their employees and servers are located. What they realized, I think, is that their prior stance of "we'll never ban a world leader" was naive; they hadn't fully thought through the potential negative effects, because the full spectrum of consequences that a government leader's speech can have was outside the personal experience of the policy setters.

Here's a weekend challenge for you...

I've been searching for letter combinations for knuckle tattoos that would spell individual words on each hand, but then when the fingers are intertwined, spell another valid word. It turns out, there are not so many solutions with commonly-used English words (and it takes a script to find them).

The letters that do form two sets of two valid words are in the blog post, and the code to generate puzzles from a word list is linked at the bottom.

Not many people have tried to solve the puzzles, but because it's recursive, I imagine that solving strategies will be wildly divergent between people. Anyone who solves and would like to share how they did, I'd like to write a later blog post comparing methods.

Happy Solving!
Filling out questionnaires is definitely painful but reviewing them can be as well. Are you guys planning on building any tooling to make the review process for teams onboarding vendors easier?
It's a tricky dichotomy.

Part of the resolution is to make characters' identities peripheral. The problem with the Magical Gay Friend story isn't that they're gay, but that they're in the story to be gay. What if you took some other character and just randomly decided, "The person he's married to happens to be named Tom". That's it.

Another part is to collect characters. This is something every writer is supposed to do. They meet interesting people and build their characters using the pieces of real humans. So instead of this being "the gay character", it's based on Mike, the drone flying, amaretto-sipping, former gas station manager who went into security consulting, and really hates San Diego but has to go there all the time because his stepmom lives there. Oh, and he met his husband Tom when he needed help pumping gas because he was wearing a tuxedo on his way to a friend's wedding and didn't want to pump it himself.

Your story about Mike could be anything. He uncovers a spy ring. He's unhappy with his new job and can't figure out what to do next. He tried heroin and really, really liked it. He and Tom don't have to be gay in this story. All they have to do is be people.

Some of the comments here are unintentionally hilarious. The original article is a pretty good attempt at creating an alternate interpretation of the story (akin to, say, Grand Unified Pixar or Darth Jar-Jar). This is its own genre and some such reinterpretations are more successful than others and all will likely fall short insofar as they attempt to overlay an interpretation on a story that was not intended by the authors and necessarily are running contrary to authorial intent, with narratives that are richer in content and ambiguity being the most successful in allowing for this sort of reinterpretation (and that's leaving out intentionally ambiguous narratives like Total Recall).

I don't know what to think about the drama surrounding Tucker screaming "There is a conspiracy at UPS - they stole important Hunter Biden's documents because they don't want you to know the TRUTH!". Then UPS found the package they had lost and delivered it, and Tucker Carlson suddenly became full of compassion for Hunter Biden. It makes one go 'hmm?'
Off topic, but to this day I love that mix of sprites and 3D these classic shooters have. I bought Doom on my Switch for $2 and it's been a joy.

My experience with corruption in Ghana suggests that the Swiss have some other key advantages. It is impossible to imagine a swiss policeman stopping every third car on the country's main highway and asking, "Where's my Christmas?"

That said, the potential for Ghanaians to thrive is astounding. Incremental improvements will yield incremental gains. It is a tropical paradise emerging from the weight of poverty.

Trial-and-error debugging which version causes a bug is busywork, preventing it right when someone introduces the potential problem is at best annoying, but very fast compared to the alternative.

I've had a long running pet theory that while the trolls aren't the villains per se, they do want to have Kristoff hooked up because he's part of their family.

This part of the song is particularly telling:

///

So she's a bit of a fixer-upper, that's a minor thing

Her quote 'engagement' is a flex arrangement, and by the way I don't see no ring!

So she's a bit of a fixer-upper, Her brain's a bit betwixt

Get the fiancé out of the way and the whole thing will be fixed

With that said it doesn't quite jive with Hans' betrayal (you could argue the Trolls made him do it but there's no support for that claim). But I think there was a potential to find out that the Trolls were manipulating things behind the scenes to get Kristoff and Anna together.
Ah yes that makes sense - it'll be fixed within the hour.
I've read both SICP and CTMCP and would recommend the latter as a first read. Sure the language it teaches in is not practical, but I actually found that to take away the distractions of reading a book in whatever your target language is. Also its the first book that got me thinking about how programming languages actually work and what actually happens under the hood when you're writing code. Great book.
Who cares who invented it? Do you think babbage designed the fabs TSMC uses now?
Then part of your job is to help others to become experts in that framework.

What don't they know? Sure, it's many things. What's the first piece you can teach them (or at least some of them)? Can you work with them to implement something and help them learn that piece at the same time?
Ludlum is uh...somewhat comparable to those sugary Froot Loops you used to eat as a kid. The Jason Bourne book set in China and Hong Kong has way too many characters who start their dialogues with "Aiyaa!", "Damn damn," and "Great Christian Jesus!" for me to stomach it a second time.

From experience in dev, there are multitudes here with learning disabilities of many different kinds. Without knowing more specifics, I'd say just about anything is open to someone from a wide range of learning disabled backgrounds. Personally, I'd recommend a person with a learning disability particularly focus on what he or she is intensely interested in. It's generally a good idea, but intense interest can help push through a lot of challenges, from my own experience.
Uh why isn't this a blog, or a youtube video?

(meaningful) isn't as much a get-of-out-jail clause here as you suggest, if I understand correctly. Requiring implementations at all, even if they are broken, moves the time when you find out about a missing definition to runtime, rather than being statically determined at typecheck time.

If the not-overriden method isn't commonly called, it's possible for the non-meaningful / raise an exception version to make it to production. Not so if the error happens at typecheck time.
I remember downloading the full pack for a few mbs since it was all midi.

Now it's 300mb for ~5500 songs, which is still impressive. I actually downloaded out of curiosity and seems like there's now a few mp3s and XMs in there which are bigger than simple midi files.
I've seen also very realistic wigs in a Japanese video so it could be fake too.
>On the other hand, the laptop produced by Guliani (of which how he got it is weird) is taken as absolute gospel by Greenwald.

What do you mean "taken as gospel"? The laptop exists, the source of the emails confirmed. Is any of it meaningful or evidence of corruption? Who knows.
The concept that it is perpetuating her view seems very questionable to me.

Is it influenced by her view? Of course.

Does it perpetuate it? Surely that depends on how readers react to it. We are free to interpret works as we like.

My own view on this is complex.

The problems JK Rowling outlines are clearly real, but of course so are the problems of trans people in gaining acceptance in society. Both TERFs and Trans people are groups that face gendered violence.

If the mere writing of a character that holds a view ‘perpetuates it’, then don’t we need to burn all books written before the 1990s?
All things ultimately die, I dunno how useful that is as a prediction...
If the speech is legal it should not be censored or moderated in any way. Any deviation from that results in the technocrats interfering with the flow of legal information and manipulation of social, economic, and political processes - which is in large part how we ended up with the events of recent months in my opinion.

"...there exists a family of expressions contrasting the dissemination of lies and truths, and these adages have been evolving for more than 300 years. Jonathan Swift can properly be credited with the statement he wrote in 1710. Charles Haddon Spurgeon popularized the version he employed in a sermon in 1855, but he did not craft it. At this time, there is no substantive support for assigning the saying to Mark Twain or Winston Churchill." [0]

I agree. But it does raise an interesting philosophical question: At what level of advancement does a hack stop being a hack.

> None of these people will espouse things like raising the minimum wage, reducing our out of control military budget, or god forbid, universal healthcare for Americans.

Odd, I have completely the opposite impression. I support all of these things, and I would have guessed that all 7 people I named each support at least one and often all of these. I'd put them more on the losing Sanders side of the Democratic party, which I think has more support for the things you list than the currently dominant and more centrist Biden side. By contrast, I'd say it's the NPR/CNN/NYT voice that does not particularly support the things you list, at least not to the same extent.

I could go through and try to pick out quotes to support this, but this probably wouldn't be persuasive. Instead, perhaps you could suggest some people that I should add to my reading list? I've given quite a few names that I think provide a useful contrast to the mainstream US media. Who else should I be reading to get a more complete picture? What are the trustworthy progressive sources, with "trustworthy" being defined as prioritizing things they believe are true over strategic communication?

One thing that makes these sorts of conversations tricky is that different people mean different things when they say stuff like "going obsolete." To some people, it means "this code literally doesn't work anymore," and to other people, it means "oh no the error handling library I use isn't in vogue anymore and I feel the need to re-write everything to use the latest library."

There is not a lot of the former, but there is some of the latter, and even if it's self-imposed, some people do feel that pressure.
I remember fondly that I was toying around with the level editor of Duke Nukem 3D as a kid. Now I understand why it wouldn't really work out the way I assumed it would. Not only did I not understand much of english back then, but it was actually confined to 2.5D ...
To be honest, I perceive you as a zealous idealist that refuses to acknowledge that the world isn't perfect, and instead chooses to oppose any form of legal empathy with mere handwaving about moral conundrums.
