Yeah, the thing I've never quite understood is why the CORS rules are so complex, and why there are so many exceptions. I think this article could be improved by doing a better job explaining why there are so many exceptions. E.g. form posts to cross-origin servers are allowed by default, but as another commenter pointed out, this is only for historical compatibility reasons and would be disallowed if we were creating the rules of HTML from scratch today.
> Safe and Secure

Safe and secure maybe, but it’s safe and secure garbage. It’s mind blowing how shitty most apps on the store are.

I want to go back to the iPhone 1 app store, where literally every app was a jewel.
> roughly 10000 less likely at least

No source.

Also statistically unknowable at this point. But a 34 and under year old already has less than a 1 in 100K chance of dying from Covid. That is to say, an under 34 year old is more likely to die of murder than die of Covid. Anywhere from 4-10x more likely in the U.S. depending on the city.

These are recommendations. A private company can fire you or kick you out for disobeying their terms of service, whether adopted from the CDC or the Contributor Covenant.
There's some evidence, as explained in that article. It's just equivocal, as is the evidence in most COVID-19 studies, even the strong studies. Unlike most studies, though, neither the above nor the original study showing Manaus seroprevalence seem easy to dismiss. For example, the reinfection study notes that the elapsed time before the first wave and second wave was greater than the period of immunity established by other studies.

Definitely something to keep an eye on.

Huawei is right.

If there is no outrageous banning on any products with >0% US IP in it, there will be lots of more fabs capacity in China. That's a showing how much political influence US commands.

If China does the same thing, everyone in developed countries would literally has nothing to do other than eating junk food...

Fortunately, China and the rest of the world catch up quickly. Aside from the aggressive national investment from Chinese government, EU have similar large scale investment in fabs. We are heading into a more robust supply chain for semiconductor products!
Not only the attack surface, but it wasn't until I tried migrating everything from pfsense to OpenBSD (firewall, dns, vpn, etc..) and started digging around did I realize how many scripts and processes are involved in managing pfsense's state. I ended up giving up and starting with OpenBSD from scratch and it didn't take me more than a couple of hours to get everything back and operational (wife tested and approved).

I'm sure there's a rhyme to their reason for such a setup but I'm extremely content with the relatively few files I manage in vim with my own versioning, upgrade and backup methodology.

I do admit that I sometimes miss the odd graph or html report but I'm getting more used to the logs.
There are specific tests that try to detect past infection, but the general standard tests will only detect current infection.

Ask HN: Has any team hired remote workers at early stage?
As a very early-stage startup non-technical founders, it's very hard for me to hire technical people with limited budget. I wonder has anyone used any website to find remote workers such as in India or other countries? What might be the potential risks/trade-off if hiring a remote worker at an early stage? What ways do you usually use to hire frugally for your early stage startup? Any recs are welcomed.

Not saying that this will work in US, but India is also like US, federation of states, with federal tax, state tax, city tax all over the spectrum over the length & breadth of country. All advertisements of car, butter, biscuits, house, anything which can be priced over TV/Media advertises its MRP (maximum Retail Price), which is also printed on product itself too. Retailer use stickers on shelf or on product itself to tell what is the actual price, which by law should not be more that its MRP. The taxes along the route, physically & supplier/trader wise affects the price, but it is illegal for anybody retailer to sell anything more that its printed MRP.

Yes, same packet of potato chips costs R20 at capital R25 at hill stations (but its MRP shows R25).

Epic's case isn't getting very far and it's quite possible that it would not have arisen at all if Apple had shown any interest at all at managing it's own opening rather than putting itself at risk of being opened by others.

> Erm, you do realize that these technologies have nothing to do with preventing scam apps in stores, right?

Sure they do. They are all examples of products that are differentiated from others in the same space by their focus on security. Thus, in the realm of competing app stores, there could be stores that exist that focus on secure, privacy-focused apps, just as there are already app stores such as F-Droid that differentiate themselves by focusing on FOSS apps.

One could reasonably expect that if iOS supported multiple app stores, there would be stores that tried to focus on the luxury high-end aspect of the platform by offering carefully curation. Third-party app curation services already exist.

> The counterclaim, that a single scam free store would have all of the apps in it is obviously false because the premise is a future with multiple stores.

Actually, the simplest counterclaim is to point at the current and past existence of alternate app stores such as Cydia or the Altstore, which do in fact contain apps that customers want anyway.

If you're trying to convince your friends and family to use some obscure tech nerd messaging app instead of what they're used to (and all of their friends probably use), it doesn't really matter whether their arguments are "good" or "bad" from a factual standpoint, because most people (or, at least, the OP as we can see here) don't really want to get into a debate defending the bad PR signal has created for itself. Getting folks to change the software they're used to for something new is a fundamentally hard thing to do even when you're providing a _clear upgrade_ (just look at how touchy people get at needing to change text editors/ides, or how vocally people complain about literally every web UI redesign), and every extra hurdle added to that process is going to make it exponentially harder.
Something I've recently seen more of is people thinking an issue is a CORS issue when in fact it's just an unhealthy service 500ing on the OPTIONS request. I've seen a couple debugging threads get derailed at the start with "this is a CORS issue" because the first person to open a Chrome console scanned and saw "CORS error" on the failed request (I'm guilty of this myself).
Is it possible you were trying to login without the full path? You're email isn't minot, it's minot@hckrnews.com. Similarly, on Matrix, your username isn't minot, but minot@matrix.org.

I have tried shifting to Vivaldi several times (I very frequently tend to hop browsers, just for the sake of it).

For me, Vivaldi's best feature is that it allows you to sideload extensions without kicking up a fuss about them with popups each time you start the browser. AFAIK no other Chromium-based browser apart from ungoogled-chromium allows that.

But on the other hand, it tries to do so many things altogether and shoves so many options and settings to the user it feels overwhelming. It feels bloated, and using it after you've been used to the minimal design on Chrome (and Firefox that has copied it), it just .. doesn't feel right.
Xamarin Android HMS Map Kit Integration with Polyline-Huawei Developers
I wonder what’s the ballpark of what spammers are making and spending. And if that really is significant enough profit to the carriers to prompt inaction on an issue that clearly degrades the experience for the rest of their users.

Or maybe this issue couldn’t be solved unilaterally, where one carrier could offer much better spam protection as a competitive advantage, and the industry is too decrepit for group effort that doesn’t have direct implications on their bottom line.
"The great liability of the engineer compared to men of other professions is that his works are out in the open where all can see them. His acts, step by step, are in hard substance.

In addition to phones being made useless by the volume of spam, the scourge of mail dressed up to look official when it isn't also could use addressing.

I recently bought a car for the first time in quite a while, and have been inundated with scumbags sending me official-looking doom letters about how my warranty is about to expire and it's vital I call their expensive phone number to pay them money immediately. Similarly, mail often arrives from the "loan disbursement centre" which are dressed up to look like official notifications but in fact are offers of awful credit lines.

At least the phone issue is usually easily solved by setting the phone only to ring for those already in a contact lists, spoofing not-withstanding.

I’ve always setup HTTPS to an alias domain as the first step in any of my projects. I do it because at an early internship I witnessed a bunch of bugs that only appeared after pushing to “prod.”

Nowadays with tools like mkcert it’s trivial to install and maintain a trusted root cert for whatever .test (RFC approved TLD) domain you want to add to /etc/hosts. (Just be careful which colleagues you allow to install a custom root cert on your device. ;))

As a fULlStAck DeVeLoPEr, what annoys me the most are the preflight CORS OPTIONS requests, and the fact they came out of nowhere in the past ~5 years. Most frameworks don’t have a good solution for dealing with those requests out of the box. It’s annoying how web standards change so much so frequently. I could put my code in a vault and take it out in 2023 and it would probably break due to some obscure update in whatever JS runtime is popular then.
They probably can but simply haven't because they haven't thought about the issue at all, aren't willing to put in the extra work (the PDF version was probably all but mandatory if they're from academia), didn't want to put in the significant amount of extra work to make an HTML paper look halfway decent, didn't want to learn a new set of tools right now when their PDF toolchain works just fine, ....

More importantly, they're people and probably had _some_ reason for doing what they did. If we'd prefer an HTML version instead or in addition, we ought to make an honest effort to understand their perspective and address their concerns rather than just bemoan their choices.

I concur. Frankly, 5 licenses for $55 per annum is more than reasonable. I've got friends and family members on my family plan now and paying $1 per month, per user. Is CHEAP.
This seems like it was a defensible statement in 2001 or maybe even 2011, but in 2021 I think it's hard to defend.

Is it necessary?

Well - for many people literally the only way they communicate with their friends is in group chats on social media platforms. Losing that leads to social isolation.

Is it equivalent to the real world?

Of course it isn't equivalent - as in "the same as" the real world. For many people it is much much more important since most of their life is lived via online mechanisms.
How about we wait and see if, after everyone who wants a vaccine has gotten a vaccine, COVID is even still a going concern before we decide that it's a good idea to start keeping a permanent, centralized log of everywhere every person in the country has been (which is what most of the vaccine passport proposals I've seen have been).
That was before bookmark and passwords sync, which now act as significant moats. You used to be able to import bookmarks from another browser, but you can't do that with passwords.
It could be that the body is able to fight off the infection better, so they only have mild symptoms. Maybe they don't even know they have it again. The data in this study was based on health care workers who were tested every 2 to 4 weeks (i.e. not just when they felt really sick).

Now I have achieved things that are clearly respectable and I don't feel any need to prove myself. Instead, I'm happy to look like a fool. I also have modest enough ambitions that I don't need to worry about the consequences of people's perceptions for things like promotions or other opportunities. I create my own opportunities.
There is "the market" and there is also a shortage.

The market is saying this stuff is just worth more than "suggested retail price". In your world you point at bitcoin ASICs and GPU miners buying up chip supply and existing GPU inventory respectively, in other worlds people point at scalpers buying up GPUs and gaming consoles. But all worlds are saying "the price of hardware is triple the listed price". For companies with lines of chips to build, they can absolutely bid higher and get higher in the production queue and pass that price on to the their customers.

But there is also a supply shortage.

The markets are functioning decently, where it is 100% saying "hey go start a fab in Arizona, it's currently profitable" it is just not quick to set those things up.

So for now, we have to deal with the geopolitics and point at rational market participants that are taking risk to buy up supply as it hits and successfully resale it for 2-3x markup. Someone else has to take a bigger risk and start a production line, and play both Biden, Xi and Tsai Ing-Wen like a fiddle, hoping all the heads of state throw billions of their currency at them. We can take a risk by being a scalper or buying shares/options of the fab lines.

Well done OP, Congratulations on the launch!

Several others have pointed out why they wouldn't use such a service, I would definitely use this; Not to make money per se but to distribute my compute load within my network across the computers, smartphones, tablets, TVs i.e. whatever with a browser capable of running web assembly.

Consumer level distributed computing is my pet peeve and I'm obsessively power conscious about my computing needs. I use low power, silent computing systems in my house that means Intel U/ AMD G series CPU, loads of ARM SoCs, Consoles for gaming etc. and for anything demanding I compute using cloud.

Considering I use only low power systems, I could really use distributed computing to improve my productivity and that's been currently limited to some data science loads using Dask, Modin and occasional use of programming languages designed for DC.

Update: I have added your project link to a distributed computing problem thread on my problem validation platform. Hopefully those who are looking for such a solution would be able to find it there.

One hack if you get those robocalls that match your area code. Get a new phone number for an area code you think you’ll never go to and use a smart blocking app[1] to block the entire area code.

I received four separate calls that “my social security number has been suspended for illegal activity” calls yesterday.

The hammer just came down on the telco responsible.[1] That particular scam is on the list attached to the FCC's letter. Under the new administration, the FCC isn't fooling around. Here's what the FCC actually sent that telco:

Federal Communications Commission
Enforcement Bureau
VIA CERTIFIED MAIL - RETURN RECEIPT REQUESTED
To: Omar Luna CEO
R Squared Telecom LLC
526 S Main St. Suite 802 Akron, OH 44311

omar.luna@rsquaredtelecom.com

Re: Official Correspondence from the Federal Communications Commission

Dear Mr. Luna,

We have determined that R Squared Telecom LLC (R Squared) is apparently transmitting illegal robocall traffic on behalf of one or more of its clients. You should investigate and, if necessary, cease transmitting such traffic immediately and take steps to prevent your network from continuing to be a source of apparently illegal robocalls. As noted below, downstream voice service providers will be authorized to block all of R Squared’s traffic if you do not take steps to “effectively mitigate illegal traffic” within 48 hours, or if you fail to inform the Commission and the Traceback Consortium within fourteen (14) days of this letter (April 27, 2021) of the steps you have taken to “implement effective measures” to prevent customers from using your network to make illegal calls.

In the original, "block all of R Squared’s traffic" is bolded.

Yes, the FCC gave an entire wholesale telco 48 hours to stop robocalls or be cut off from the phone network. The FCC didn't bother to censor their CEO's name and email address, either.

That's after the US$225 million dollar fine the FCC levied on another robocall firm last month.[2]

The "Traceback Consortium" is the group putting source authentication into VOIP. Congress required that to be in place by June 30, 2021, and much of it is already working. So finding out who's doing it is now beginning to work. As we can see here.

Everyone shit's on SaaS pricing because, well, for many, many well documented reasons.

But with 1Password, I'm paying $55 per annum for 5 licenses for a product that works exceptionally well. Convenience and security here is absolutely important.

And if it means I can throw a license at my girlfriend who previously had a similar password between banking and her wifi and everything in between. And I can set her up, eat $1 a month on her behalf and EASILY onboard her vs. a stand alone license which is not convenient. You can count me as a happy subscriber. 1Password's pricing is great, and I get an awesome product in return.

I don't get the blind "all SaaS products suck and are dark patterns" vitriol that we see on HN so often.
