We have a similar approach planned in sigstore, but with a slightly different approach to the timestamps by using Transparency Logs. We have some demos here on how to sign git commits: https://github.com/sigstore/cosign/blob/main/FUN.md

The idea is that you can use short-lived keys, bound to certificates via an ACME-style challenge, but based on an email address. The signature goes into a Transparency log to prove it happened while the cert was valid. Then revocation is no longer an issue.

Ideally everything would be self hosted p2p btcpayserver like technology. But mass adoption requires some compromises. Not everyone wants to self host and self custody, and if you’re willing to compromise a little on that you can have massive UX gains, especially if you’re looking to swap to fiat on either end anyways. As long as you retain the ability to self custody your currency should you desire, it’s not even that big of a compromise IMO.

Where did you find their process for recalculating the dates? The Japanese calendar was lunar and calculated locally until the 1600s in some areas, all the way up to the 1800s in other areas. How did the researchers line up the dates in the journals to astronomical data? How can they assume that when a Japanese journal said "first day of spring" that they actually meant the astronomical first day of spring, for example? I'd like to see the methodology the researchers used, but I didn't find anything in their paper about it.

Not quite, just that they should _allow_ such app stores if the app store so wanted to go on the platform.

Microsoft Windows and Android already allow this today which I think is why you hear about Apple's App store so much - it does not allow this. E.g. on Windows you can install iTunes and listen to Apple Music without Apple having to use Microsoft's app store or pay a cut of the subscription to Microsoft. The same is true on Android, Apple does not need to go through Google Play - it's possible to load the APK without it. That being said Apple Music still has the option of listing in the native stores (which it is in both the Microsoft Store and Google Play) it's just not _forced_ to be the only way to get the app _forcing_ the 30% cut to be paid.

As a result you do see competition to the Microsoft Store on Windows and you do see competition to the Play store on Android. Each is still an option though but it's not without competition. On the Apple App store your option is "30% app store cut or get the fuck out, this user owns an iPhone so you can't sell to them direct now".

But there is no reason to force any particular stores to be available on a particular platform, simply making sure stores are allowed has seemed to enabled competition in every place that has tried it so far.

>People who are not worth $15 an hour because are slow are artificially inflated, and now they get put into a job that is hard to fire from, which then in turn leads to companies less likely to hire people, which decreases labor supply, and has other cascading effects.

To be fair, plenty of huge companies hire all kinds of people that provide zero or negative value to the bottom line. Most of these positions are white collar, well paid and non-unionised: purchasing officers, university administrators (with the exception of that one person who actually does everything), sprawling HR departments, "Agile" project managers that can't code, the "management class" as a whole etc. Interestingly, the more "dead weight" employees a company has, the faster they will hire more.

Using your own brand of "individual actors maximising value" economic theory, it's pretty easy to see how this is the case. The people making these hiring decisions don't actually have any rational incentive to increase the profitability of the organisation, but will receive both increased job security and political power through appointing dead weight hires. So that's what they do.

Surprised this was written by Ted Chiang (my all-time favorite science-fiction author). The IQ and compiler arguments seem like pretty weak strawmen, and the last section assumes that AI will have some kind of normal distribution of IQ just like humans, which doesn't make any sense.

There's no reason to believe that intelligence is a quantity that can be improved ad infinitum ala singularity, but I think it's reasonable to believe that 1 - agi is possible 2 - said agi can participate in human society to improve its own design
The article gives zero indication of exactly what this harassment was. Just because someone feels like they were harassed does not mean they were actually harassed.

So... I guess we can expect some slaps on the wrist sanctions against a few government officials and call it a day soon.

> Bad actors exist and will do this with checks or lightning, game theory applies to both

It does, but with lightning, as long as you are watching the chain periodically, you are guaranteed to not lose money. The same cannot be said for checks.

> It doesn't matter if you're watching the chain, you've already transacted with the buyer

It does matter if you watch the chain - this is how you determine if your counterparty is trying to close out the channel with an out of date state (at which point you can submit an onchain transaction that corrects the problem + collects a penalty from your counterparty).

> 3P Escrow is not unique to Lightning and is sometimes used with checks too

Watchtowers are not anything like escrow. It's simply allowing a third party to submit penalty transaction iff your counterparty attempts to submit an out of date state. They do not take custody of your funds.

No, it's always compiled to MSIL. You've always had to use a separate tool (such as NGen or dotnet publish) to do AOT compilation. But there are tradeoffs and AOT doesn't always mean faster performance.

But again, if you use the dotnet CLI you can just dotnet publish to create a AOT version of your exe. Just remember it still has the runtime and GC. You are just reducing the work of the JIT. Also AOT does not guarantee you will not JIT and still contains the MSIL. It's just a performance optimization where pre-compiled code will be used when possible.
This has been a concern for me for a while, but it's possible to use aws cli with mfa by throwing an IdP in front of it.

It's not just incompetency, it's malice, to treat your own customers in this fashion. But this is what happens when there is consistently no consequences for these kinds of breaches.

Given the fact that nowadays doctor is mostly a rote memorization educational path, I often wonder if increasing the number of doctors but reducing hours and somewhat pay would be an overall improvement.

> essentially all L2 systems require 2 tx on L1.

True. But once an L2 channel is anchored on L1 using those 2 L1 transactions it can support an unlimited number of L2 transactions, they take milliseconds to do, and an unlimited number can happen in parallel - all without any more L1 transactions.

L1's main use is to become the place L2 channels are created. Creating 7 entire channels per second sounds like it should be more than enough.

It seems the issue with Ubiquiti here has potential wider implied for users of the equipment (signing keys compromised, cloud dependency giving remote management plane access).

An individual vulnerability in a device is an issue but it gets patched. Hopefully it can't be exploited remotely. My biggest annoyance is when "infrastructure" ends up with outside connections in place (to the cloud or elsewhere), that breaks this model down (trusting the provider to mediate remote access, for example).

They're a big single point of failure, and this incident really proves that.
Heard in the halls of Adobe in 1995: In an earlier version of Photoshop, a high-ranking member of the team had snuck in a Halloween easter-egg, but failed to take account of the fact that text encodings for the Japanese version's string resources required two-byte encoding. So, starting at midnight on Oct 31, in most of the world, Photoshop would start up with a "Happy Halloween" alert; but in Japan, it would crash at startup. Whoever did it got fired by the CEO, via phone call in the middle of the night. Any or all details might be wrong...
- SigStore / TUF
- Look at how Go does security in its module system

Increase penalties so that it gets priority, you point about legislation, is probably the number one way. Or in other words, software needs more regulation

In part it has been a product of the move fast and fix things later, plus how easy it has become to create applications for the inexperienced.

The shortage of developers and new entrants to the field, I suspect, has lowered the average years of experience. Security mindset and understanding all the complex ways that things can and are broken (the security frontier) takes a long time.

Cloud plays into this, more complex and harder to get right, also easy to spin up insecure defaults. (See Helm)

Unpopular idea most likely, but what if creating software was more akin (legally) to doing chemistry than writing books? (Not advocating, just posing a thought experiment)

Just a heads up that the quotes used in the kc function appear to be "smart quotes" and will likely throw an error if copied verbatim into your shell config
This looks like an enterprise perspective. For smaller organisations operating on a single site, some of these concerns won't apply. I also think you're being a little one-sided there because cloud-hosted configuration has its own risks in terms of security and accidentally cutting off your management access, many of them directly analogous to the ones you mentioned, plus you have all the usual concerns about any critical system that depends on Internet connectivity to work properly. At the end of the day, nothing is more reliable than local wired networking, and nothing is more flexible for disaster recovery than having someone physically on-site.

In the prosumer to small business segment, I would argue that there is still enormous potential value in being able to configure all of the network gear from a single GUI, not least because it doesn't then require a lot of in-house networking expertise to get something going that works and is reasonably secure.

You emphasized your boys' focus on math and science. One approach which might be appealing to them and to the school is to change the focus from cryptocurrency to cryptography. You can google "cryptography for kids" or aim them at the "Illustrated Theory of Numbers" which covers prime factorization in chapter 2. Cryptography is the foundation of all blockchain and cryptocurrency tech and (I believe) will only grow in importance in the future.

I really think this is what it is. Internet discussion forums used to self-select for curious people actively seeking out discussion. It wasn't hard to find meaningful interactions because most people who sought out forums were looking for something similar. Now that everyone is on the internet, the random person you interact with likely doesn't have the same disposition as before.

ADSL/VDSL uses phone lines but operate in the hundred kilohertz to several megahertz range, so all the sounds are ultrasonic. Still, it would be nice to see the recordings and plot them visually in a spectrogram. DOCSIS uses many megahertz of bandwidth too, and similarly you can't hear stuff but it would be interesting to see a spectrogram.
You can collect data from people who opt in.
