I'm not sure why that threshold needs to exist. It shouldn't be any harder for your SSR to check a cookie than it is for your REST API to check a cookie. There are some benefits of SSR that don't apply to pages with private content, namely being able to cache the HTML response in a CDN and (arguably) being treated better by search engine crawlers, but many of the benefits of SSR apply just as well to private content.
Web assembly is not a hypervisor and doesn't intend to be one.
I think there's a difference between making an extreme claim in the early days of this thing without giving evidence to back it up, compared to now where there's been a year's worth of putting the pieces together. And even now we don't know-- it's just better informed speculation (although the intelligence community may have more to go on that we don't know about.)

The media isn't great about reporting science, but I don't fault them for being critical of an unsupported claim made at a time when it was in the political interests of a person's party to cast blame in China's direction.

Calling that a fiasco is itself ignoring the contexts involved as reporting changed. Making an unsupported accusation that turns out to be correct doesn't mean it was right to make the accusation at that time.

> Have previous protocols (TCP, UDP, etc) been in widespread use before their respective RFCs?

Yes. Many early RFCs were simply documenting things as they were, not specifications of how they should be.
No. It's not "take your head home", with your head (a noun) being the part standing in for the whole, namely you.
Rather, "to head" is a verb that means (among other things) "to move in a specific direction". For example, an aircraft could be heading north.
I love history for that. Just knowing about the past gives me a feeling of connection to places I've never been to or times I'll never get to witness.

As an aside, the Scythians were not in what we'd today consider Persia (Iran). They originated around the north coast of the Black Sea, and extended east and southeast from there along the Eurasian steppe.

Yes, that was one hypothesis, but it didn't turn out to be the correct one. The correct hypothesis was that Newtonian gravity was wrong and had to be replaced by General Relativity. That hypothesis is not a "dark matter" hypothesis. But the poster I was responding to, dnautics, is claiming (not just here but elsewhere in this thread) that it is.
I share some of your trepidation but I've learned to like containers for some uses cases. In particular -- and I think this might help you have fun with learning -- I like one-liners. For example, the following downloads a "virtual machine" with a Java development kit in it, compiles a program and runs it:

docker run --rm adoptopenjdk/openjdk11-openj9:ubi sh -c "printf 'public class main { public static void main(String... args) throws Throwable { System.out.println(\"Hello World\"); } }' > main.java && javac main.java && java main"

This is a trivial example, but I think it gets at the value of containers which is to make things self-contained.

From here on, it does get increasingly complicated and sometimes questionably so. You'll normally create a Dockerfile, add all your commands there, add separate files which you'll copy into the container. Then you might use compose, Kubernetes, nomad, or a million other technologies to actually make something more realistic and there are lots of annoyances of those.

But I think the base value for me is the idea of scripting the creation and deployment of self-contained "virtual machines". Arguably, this was done before with Ansible, Chef, etc., but there is some value to a popular, standardized approach and a huge library of images out on Docker Hub that you can simply run/pull. This is particularly useful for reproducing problems for other people to investigate, sharing toy projects, letting people explore your application, etc.
With about as much success my sock had reverse engineering George Hotz's code.

The Bomb That Didn't Explode: Why Our Fears About Population Growth Didn't Come True

And a debate :

Your insistence on "current C" is a brittle claim to make. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that there are no popular instances of ILP64 systems today. But someday your comment will be false, and it could happen at a surprising time. This would be a repeat of how old C programmers' false assumptions were violated by the 16->32 bit transition, the 32->64 bit transition, and the increasing exploitation of UB for optimization. Whereas my comment is always true with respect to the C11 standard - there can be a legal implementations where `(uint8_t)-1 << 24` is undefined behavior, and other implementations where it is well-defined behavior equal to 0xFF000000.

As for writing code that behaves correctly on any legal C implementation, it is certainly possible and I practiced this for years. Go ahead and audit my published programs. It is not easy though, and I have made many mistakes along the way before I figured out how to do it consistently. Although there are many rules that I need to follow, the two most important ones are: Obey the fact that built-in integer types have minimum widths (e.g. char is at least 8, int at least 16, long at least 32); Use size_t for array lengths and indexes.
Each site seemed to be funneling you into a single source of truth and way of not only thinking, but FEELING about an event.

Second of all, why is YouTube so fixated on removing COVID-related videos?

My guess is they're afraid of what happens if/when some anti-anti-vax activist group uses it to justify aggressively regulating Youtube.
> If Klarna were actually on the hook for their own money

Aren't they?

> it wold only have to happen a few times before they realize it's not worth it

That's an assumption. Someone did some A/B testing and said this payment flow results in X% increased sales, resulting in Y% more revenue for Klarna, it results in Z% more fraud. I don't even object to this per-se.

If Y is greater than Z, they will do it.

If they are especially awful they will consider that of the Z% of fraud it will result in A% still being paid for and B% being recovered in debt collection. That is awful.

I got involved with Nextdoor as I’m on a board for a community organization and would answer questions, etc.

Our city’s Nextdoor is pretty great, the biggest annoyance are the people focused on cats and their various woes.

Recently Nextdoor decided to mix it up and started making changes allowing some limited visibility of surrounding suburbs. Oh boy.

The mix of superiority and fear in the suburbanites are incredible. They are angry about a county bike trail because “undesirables” may bike into their town. There’s petitions in opposition to turn lanes on a roadway for some batshit reasons, racist comments about players on a city high school baseball team, etc.

Bikes and bike lanes are particularly contentious, which is weird because kids out there bike everywhere. (Worried about undesirable people again)

It’s a really aspect of society that I honestly never witnessed in person.
Unsure what specifically the gp was referring to but there is a known relation between L-functions and the prime number sequence, see Riemann hypothesis.

And p-adics are constructed using modulo some prime.

With all these prime relations maybe p-adic L-functions could lend themselves to any number of prime adjacent conjectures: distribution, twins, goldbach, Riemann.

I don't know about services, but MPTCP is available on Apple's OSes and out of tree patches for Linux and FreeBSD (at least I don't think it's been merged into the main tree for either of those).

Apple took a little bit too long to make it available for applications on iOS, so it didn't line up with my access to large numbers of end users and full control of the server stack, so I sadly don't have any experience with it, but it's there.

From reading the specs a while ago, I believe QUIC ended up with support for changing IPs, but not multiple IPs simultaneously, and I believe the server only can change IPs during session establishment, not with an established session.

Not unusual. The federal government is dumping on average 1 trillion dollars per month into the m1 money supply. Goods are being restricted by production issues concerning the pandemic and the ripples through out the supply chain for new vehicles. As new vehicles are unaffordable this puts pressure on used vehicles that could serve just as well.
TCP is documented several times, in different states, starting at least in 1974. So depending on how you define "widespread" and "respective RFCs" you could probably argue for either position.

I can't see any other explanation for why YouTube would give its supposed competitors, the legacy media, prime spots on its site.
I might believe that more if all the people I know IRL who talk about being afraid of being fired/cancelled/whatever weren't also the exact same people shitting out talking point after talking point from the exact same news sources with no critical thought whatsoever.
That's true, but you'd need an implausibly high percentage of developers to agree to the boycott for it to work. Since that conformity is unlikely it's even harder to attain because every individual thinks "Even I forgo this lucrative job it'll still be done by someone else and I'll just have less money."
I'm not the one that was originally asking for regulation on the social media companies, I just think there are too many fundamental differences between current social media sites and newspaper editorials for that analogy to work.

Personally I feel social media sites have taken some of the moderation too far. I don't have a problem (in a legal sense) with the algorithmic feed downweighting various topics or adding links to countering sources or whatever, but I think if these sites don't want to be held liable for content they should error way on the side of allowing individual user pages to be uncensored.

What was even crazier to me was when Twitter blocked DMs containing that Hunter Biden story. The story was suspect obviously, but to moderate private messages like that is a huge overreach IMO.
https://ground.news/ is an interesting idea.
> When a species dies, it's not those individuals, it's every one of those individuals that ever lived that dies.

It is tragic that species go extinct. I believe 99.99% of all species in earth's 4 billion years has gone extinct. I forget who said it but like individual creatures live and die, species also have to live and die. But it also opens the door for new species. Without mass die offs, we don't have dinosaurs. Without mass die offs, we don't have mammals and humans.

> All that concentration of local entropy, destroyed forever

And look at what the previous destructions created. The beauty of today's nature stands on the graveyards of the natural world that came before it. Those species you mourn today only existed because previous species went extinct and open up the space for other species.

Not saying we should welcome species extinction, especially the ones human cause. But we should be mindful of the fact that past species extinctions is why the current species exist. It's not all one sided. There is "life after death".
Every time I want to blog there’s lots of pictures, and it’s a pain to get then into a blog Post. In WordPress it takes forever to upload and fix them (and its generally cumbersome). I figured a static site generator could be nice, but you can’t paste images into a markdown file - creating separate image files and linking them in its even more cumbersome, even if the rest of the writing process is easier.

Sometimes the barrier to blogging is the technology. Ugh.
It's quite possible that there was a better response than more funding. Doing nothing does not seem to be it.
Safety incidents happen a lot.

> By 1960, hundreds of American scientists and technicians had been hospitalized, victims of the diseases they were trying to weaponize. Charles Armstrong, of the National Institutes of Health, one of the consulting founders of the American germ-warfare program, investigated Q fever three times, and all three times, scientists and staffers got sick. In the anthrax pilot plant at Camp Detrick, Maryland, in 1951, a microbiologist, attempting to perfect the “foaming process” of high-volume production, developed a fever and died. In 1964, veterinary worker Albert Nickel fell ill after being bitten by a lab animal. His wife wasn’t told that he had Machupo virus, or Bolivian hemorrhagic fever. “I watched him die through a little window to his quarantine room at the Detrick infirmary,” she said.

> In 1977, a worldwide epidemic of influenza A began in Russia and China; it was eventually traced to a sample of an American strain of flu preserved in a laboratory freezer since 1950. In 1978, a hybrid strain of smallpox killed a medical photographer at a lab in Birmingham, England; in 2007, live foot-and-mouth disease leaked from a faulty drainpipe at the Institute for Animal Health in Surrey. In the U.S., “more than 1,100 laboratory incidents involving bacteria, viruses and toxins that pose significant or bioterror risks to people and agriculture were reported to federal regulators during 2008 through 2012,” reported USA Today in an exposé published in 2014.
In 2015, the Department of Defense discovered that workers at a germ-warfare testing center in Utah had mistakenly sent close to 200 shipments of live anthrax to laboratories throughout the United States and also to Australia, Germany, Japan, South Korea, and several other countries over the past 12 years. In 2019, laboratories at Fort Detrick — where “defensive” research involves the creation of potential pathogens to defend against — were shut down for several months by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for “breaches of containment.” They reopened in December 2019.

From https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/coronavirus-lab-esca..., many links to sources and more details in the original. The USA Today story is particularly interesting though (https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2014/08/17/report...).

Humans make mistakes. Accidents happen. And even at the most secure labs in the US, sometimes people die. Yes, we (hopefully) learn from our mistakes; a fatal accident in the 50s or 60s doesn't mean these things still happen today. Maybe (hopefully!) all those recent breaches and safety incidents were relatively minor. Perhaps China is much better about such things than other nations. And even if mistakes can happen that doesn't mean a mistake happened here, in this instance!

But if your prior is just "BSL-2 and higher labs are safe, they would never have a containment failure" I think you may want to re-evaluate it.

This article got a lot of user flags. That's bad—it's obviously a substantive article, squarely on topic for HN and not sensational, ideological, or predictable. Even a quick skim is enough to see that it doesn't break down along any of the obvious faultlines for this general topic. That not only means it shouldn't have been flagged, it makes it HN gold. If you've been wielding the flag club that indiscriminately...please stop! Accounts that do that lose their flagging rights.

It's not legit to flag an article just because you don't like the general category. There must also be something about the specific article itself that's demonstrably bad for HN (for example, maybe the article doesn't contain substantial new information, is gratuitously baity, or is mostly fuel for internet drama). None of that is the case here—quite the opposite. This is just the sort of article we should welcome, so we can have substantive discussions about relevant issues instead of hurling the same old nasty platitudes at each other yet again. (Can a platitude be nasty? or do I need a different word?)

A thousand thank-yous to the user who took the time to email about this while the thread was still fresh; I wasn't focused on the HN front page just then, but I got the heads-up. If you ever want to make a big difference to HN quality, emailing hn@ycombinator.com when you notice solid, substantive content not getting the attention it deserves (whether because of flags or for any other reason) is one of the highest-leverage contributions you can make!

Not to mention many of the early proponents were notorious conspiracy theorists, racists, and nut jobs who spoke with absolute certainty, cited virtually no evidence and clearly had no idea what they were talking about. Could they, in their wild speculation, been right about a few things? Sure, that’s always possible, but they didn’t actually know that at the time.

This isn’t a science or mainstream media problem; both require something resembling empirical evidence to make factual claims. It’s a problem of bullshitters, who can just stay stuff. If you want to be clear that they’re full of it, you run the risk that they actually guessed right.
