Depends on what you mean by “solution.” If you mean “eliminating,” probably not. Thousands of years of human cultural evolution have not eliminated murder, rape, assault, theft, or any of the many terrible things people do to each other. The best solutions we’ve come up with are laws, social norms, enforcement, punishment.

We can solve the problem for ourselves to some degree: don’t take photos or make videos that you don’t want everyone to see. No embarrassing photos/videos, no way for someone to use them against you. Rampant narcissism and public exhibitionism will probably continue to supply material that will inevitably get misused.

Deep fakes present another problem. We don’t have a solution for forgeries in other contexts, except for the usual laws and punishment. My guess is that if deep fakes become a widespread thing no one will trust images and videos they come across (unless there’s some reason to believe the material is real). If we could find suspicious porn everywhere it would lose its value to cause shame and embarrassment, because claiming it is fake would be more than plausible.
LHR T5, arrive 40 minutes before takeoff - especially if you're going from a high numbered A gate for a small plane (which you could arrange for a premium service) security takes about 2 minutes, gate closes at t-20 for normal planes.

Not sure why you'd use it from Cyprus (LCA is Larnaca). If it could operate on a short runway though, London City to JFK or LaGuardia ala the BA airbus would be interesting, although the stop for Shannon has never appealed.
Consumers are not the customer. System integrators are the customer. They are motivated to minimize the number of distinct manufacturing targets. Consumers have no choice but to take what is offered.
Eh, it works with video games though. A few companies like Limited Run games release physical copies of digital games banking on artificial scarcity to drive sales, and that scarcity really drives up prices on the secondhand market. This is despite the fact that you can buy the game for $5 on a digital storefront. Something like Celeste for example.

There are other examples where you are right though. Comics in general with variant or the dreaded hologram colors were an attempt to do so, and it's kind of rare to see them valued today.
I can't believe we've managed to have this lengthy of a discussion about GC languages and speed without anyone mentioning rust. Has HN turned a corner?
Also with WFH the maintenance cycle is really messed up now since we use our cars so little - ours is set @ 15,000 km per service interval and we normally did it within one year.
Yeah, it is a question to be determined if people would interoperate assets across games. I think if the NFT market becomes large enough, that will happen. I think the way to grow the market is first with user-to-user trades within a game, or when two users want to trade assets for one game for assets in another, such as when you want to start playing a new game and sell your old assets.

I think people will want to have real true ownership over an asset, such that if the game provider stops running their marketplace or game, you can still own the asset. I could be wrong, but I really think there's demand there.
We can mock this, but i don't see why a canvas with a few random splodges of paint casually thrown at it should be much better.
I already did, but they haven't figured it out yet!
Yes, that's what the discussion is about. We don't need fancier paperwork, the existing records do just fine.
GP's root claim is that protobuf serialization/deserialization performance shouldn't matter, on an article where a user is specifically demonstrating that it does matter.
Oh cool, I misunderstood, that actually seems like it could work well then
Dealers must love this. Also:

as long as they are under 10 years old and have covered fewer than 100,000 miles

In North America it's very common for cars to have this many miles long before the 10 year mark.
If your path is sensitive to 200us of latency you should probably optimize your application and tune your GC. Typically 200us for freeing all unreachable memory is not a big deal.
I tried signing up and I got a collection of most useless error messages, such as Unauthorized, Forbidden, Email is in use and so on. The Email is in use one does not seem so useless, but it really is if you get it when you try again with the same email address after getting one of the other messages...
This is great. As AR starts to take off, I hope an industry standard for this gets created.
Are they incapable of practicing safely? A lot of "pedestrian" gymnastic moves can break a neck when executed poorly - but I don't see them banning the summersault. An important component of athleticism is exercising good judgement.
AWS will jack you, be careful. Those credits get used up, free/cheap quota used, services grind to a halt and somehow you owe $500 after a week.

I mean.. you just have to pay attention. And maybe think about making a pricing page.

Personally I love the idea, especially 3D and programmability.
Oh, I see, sorry. I misunderstood you. I thought you were saying that you wouldn't disappear if the wall was painted over, but that you would want it to disappear.
Yeah hugely annoying. Thank $deity for uBlock Origin -> Element Zapper Mode FTW.
> Anyway, the entire premise presented here becomes bogus if the software connects to the internet for key verification which has been a viable option for decades now.

This would seem true to most people, and I had the same assumption over 5 years ago when I started Keygen. But you would surprised at how many software vendors, and end-users, do not consider an online-only licensing system a viable option. Take Sublime Text -- as far as I know, they do not use a licensing server that "calls home" (I'd bet their user base revolt against such a thing.)

There is a sizeable portion of my customer base that rarely even uses the API -- they use Keygen to generate signed offline-first license keys which they distribute to end-users. They only use the API for customer support and reporting purposes.

I like having the best of both worlds -- an online-first, offline-capable licensing system. But to be offline-capable, your key algorithm has to be secure, otherwise bad actors will just go offline to avoid the part of your system that works.
I think they wanted to avoid having people build on it before they stabilize its interfaces, since they still had some big changes planned. As I understand it, the plan is supposedly still to publish it at some point.

I hope that if that's true, they publish it soon, because its design is very relevant to ongoing changes in the ecosystem, and it could be a useful reference point. :(
I agree with this but don't believe it relates to the grandparent's comment, which implied that we should accept shameful behaviour from 17 year olds because it is an innate part of being 17 years old. I object to that idea.

(Is suffering indoctrination shameful? And, as you say, that is not unique to 17 year olds.)
I see this question asked a lot on HN, and certainly with good reason: Every founder should be constantly asking themselves this question. However, I think it’s important to also play Devil’s Advocate and note that some products succeed not because they differentiated themselves against competitors, but simply because a large number of people learned about them before learning about their (possibly better, possibly cheaper) competitors, and then network effects start to take over from there.
Supersonic means you can do London-New York for a afternoon meeting in a day trip. Leave Wednesday 8AM(UK) flight, arrive 6AM(11) in New York for an 8AM(13) breakfast meeting, finish up about 1pm(18) and you're on the 3pm(20) flight and back home for midnight(UK).
What part of flakes might be up for discussion?

The only quirky part I see is how one has to "rewire" inputs of your own inputs (e.g. nixpkgs from an input to one's current flake) via that `follows` directive, but overall it's been rather pleasant compared to channels!

Here we are 10 years later with WebAssembly still mostly stuck at MVP 1.0, browsers that bork WebGL experience thanks blacklisting, which no matter what will never go beyond OpenGL ES 3.0.

Even if WebGPU gets released tomorrow, I would like to point out that WebGL 2.0 was released in 2017 and still isn't available across all browsers.

Then there are all other native capabilities that I glanced over.
This work is completely derivative of Yves Klein's Zone de Sensibilité Picturale Immatérielle from 1959.

> The work involved the sale of documentation of ownership of empty space (the Immaterial Zone), taking the form of a receipt, in exchange for gold; if the buyer wished, the piece could then be completed in an elaborate ritual in which the buyer would burn the receipt, and Klein would throw half of the gold into the Seine.

TikTok, Starbucks, and Lyft all have fully capable webapps. If you have an Android phone, you can "install" them directly from their websites to have a completely equivalent UX to a native app. This is super interesting when you consider the primary argument in the article (that most download funnels are driven by the app developer, not Apple).
Isn’t that the same as a company logo with instructions about minimum space to other elements and color of the background? How does it help with monetization?
The quality and insight of the discussions at conference is usually way higher than at the office. Conferences allow specialists to come together around topics covered only by a few people in the company. Also, they allow you to look outside the box, how other approach similar problems or technologies. At work, I usually already know it most from the regular communication.
It’s not necessary to serialize the full execution to detect errors. On an out of order processor, there is already buffering of results happening that is eventually serialized to visible state. To check errors, you could just have one buffer per processor and compare results before serialization, raising an error on mismatch between processors. Serialization is merely indicating that both _visible_ executions have agreed up to that instruction but it still allows for some local/internal disagreements. For example, two instructions can finish in opposite orders across cores and that is fine as long as they are serialized in order.

As for settling times, those are random anyway. Processors are binned according to how good the settling times ended up being. It’s unlikely to have two homogeneous chips.

From the blog post:

>"Suffering and oppression typically give rise to sympathy and compassion among the oppressed"

Is there any evidence this is true however?
Maybe there's something wrong with me, but I'm very much into conceptual art. I don't care if it's an invisible sculpture or a banana taped to a wall or, I don't know, a single tiny red dot placed somewhere on a white building.

I enjoy the thought process that goes into these things. I love the fact there was a person who thought people would enjoy the sight of a concrete ball in a glass bathtub or something, and they went and created it.

The enjoyment I get from, let's say, plain drawings of objects or vistas is very straightforward, it's already done. The enjoyment I get from conceptual art is somehow "procedural". It's a seed for my thoughts, it's a little blip of curiosity in world full of mundane objects.

Beyond hyperbole, do you have any actual comparison of Go vs Java GC performance?
The only "tampering protection" is the error correction by the QR code. Proper protection would need a PKI, which would make it so complex, no one would use it.

You always have to bullshit check the data anyway.

Payee name + bank account number are _not_ checked in Austria. I guess this is similar to other EU countries, as @kiwijamo also suggested.
I finally took my vehicle in today now that a lot of restrictions have lifted and vaccinations are at good levels. My maintenance light was on for months and I was about 5 months over for my annual safety inspection. (I was also barely driving the car.)
I don't think that this is true. The Prius was a ground-breaker in not only hybrid propulsion, but other tech aspects as well. And lets not forget the often-problematic but very advanced "robotic" transmission, which was really a microcontroller-and-servo-operated manual transmission that felt to the driver like an automatic.
Thanks for the feedback. Any other details you feel ok sharing about how you signed up? Was this using oauth?
For fuel it's insane. We pay €1.80 // $2 for a liter of fuel. That's $7.5 per gallon. This includes:

While checking the hypothesis that NFTs are valuable because they are an accounting hack, I found a reference regarding how to account for "art" on a balance sheet, which might have implications for what makes an NFT valuable, or at least useful from an accounting perspective. https://www.cpdbox.com/artwork-ifrs/ and more generally, https://www2.deloitte.com/content/dam/Deloitte/lu/Documents/...
as an owner of multiple toyota's and a member of the related forums... i can say that toyota dealers' service departments can be hit or miss, but toyota does listen to customer complaints and takes them very seriously(personal experience). additionally toyota has a lot of dealerships, so if the one closest to you is acting poorly you can go to another. they are aware of this and it tends to keep them mostly honest. plus with a large and vocal community around almost every model they make, its pretty easy to avoid the bad dealers.

my current 4runner warranty/service plan covers all scheduled maintenance, filters, lubricants, etc. for the first 100k miles. However, I do have to bring it in yearly, even if the next oil change isn't due based on milage alone.

its certainly a money play, but also keeping their vehicles in good working order helps with a lot of metrics like resell value, longevity, etc that car buyers look at. i think toyota is the largest buyer of used toyotas.
> It is NOT a repository for "dev commands" whatever the hell that means.

What it means is that it doesn't matter if I run `make test`, my coworker runs `make test` or the CI system runs `make test`, we all end up with the same result. Namely that the test suite will be run, after all stuff is done that is needed to setup the dev environment. Basically you codify all actions you as a developer would need, to setup, verify or use a project and all the dependencies between them. This makes your projects portable and when you have multiple projects (in different languages), getting it setup and running the test suite is the same for each one of them.

Why not use a bash script? That's how I started off but once a coworker introduced me to Make I never looked back. Bash scales really badly in terms of readability and maintainability.
Ironically, most people had less real privacy, and fewer “rights” to privacy, in 1890 and at every point in the past than they do now, even though a lot of people live in virtual surveillance states today. There’s a difference between intrusions into your personal life when it comes to saving face (or saving a career or marriage or other relationship), and intrusions that just add your private details to a stream of billions of private details (Facebook, for example).

In 1890, and even when I was young several decades ago, finding out that someone you knew was carrying on an affair was a potentially career- and social life-ending situation should the secret get out. Now no one would care much about it.
I've noticed Tesla charging stations popping up in places like Wawa and Sheetz, both of which offer a slightly more upscale experience than your typical gas station and usually include a grill where you can order lunch, coffee, or a frozen drink.
The sweet spot for civil supersonics from an aircraft design standpoint is less than Mach 2. You can maintain good propulsion system performance without variable geometry inlets, boom strengths are lower, aeroheating loads are lower, fuel burn is lower, etc. Operating expenses will be significantly lower for such an aircraft. Maybe Boom is finally realizing the importance of all this as well.

Whether that's enough travel time reduction to make these aircraft worthwhile is definitely a valid question. The low-boom technology that NASA is pursuing is for sub-Mach 2 aircraft (I don't believe Boom is pursuing a low-boom design, but I haven't followed closely as I don't consider them a credible organization either).
> Someone who wrote a racist or anti-Semitic comment in 2007 could have evolved to deeper understanding and to a more compassionate worldview. But the writing remains forever, conveniently accessible.

Not all writing is equal. There is a difference between let's say a tweet that was sent in during a flamewar versus a personal blog post that has been penned in the past and stayed published until today. The function of the latter is closer to a book, in that it explicitly aims to persist and communicate thoughts through time. If one changes, they could have taken the post down. If there was regret about the contents, one could have published an update/apology etc with the post.

And the post wasn't picked from a web archive; it had stayed up until it the pushback reached career threatening levels. Yet there is still no evidence or apology in any medium that the person has actually changed their viewpoint. All we have is other people apologizing on their behalf with speculative redemption.

On one hand, the developer in me agrees with you that it does make life harder. On the other hand, as a consumer I've found that I'd rather not trust developers to write software however they want. I want them to have restrictions on how much of my stuff they can access, how they can update their software and how much of a blast radius there would be from messing something up.
The problem is that the officer is corrupt, and he should be charged for taking a bribe. I don't think corruption is "just a policy violation", but I don't know enough about US law to know if taking bribes make you a felon or not (I would hope so, but I assume it depends on circumstances).

In any case, it shouldn't matter that he used a computer to commit a crime. If he had gotten the relevant information by reading them from a paper file or by asking a coworker the crime should be the same, in my opinion.

We're building support for dbt cloud users right now. Using dbt locally has allowed us to piggy-back on dbt's query runner and we're having to build that ourselves to support dbt cloud.

It's a bit unfair to state that you are the only option when it comes to ios apps, to then push ads on your captive customers and provide them with a lower quality of service. iPhone is a premium product, ads have always seemed to me to be a symbol of tacky seediness, a cheap alternative for the masses. It's not in line with Apples image. At least it shouldn't be.

That's not an accurate description. They didn't have 'silence in audio tracks', they had a silent track, named One Minute of Silence.

Significant silence in music isn't Cage's invention, and if that silent minute was embedded in a track, there's enough prior art that Cage's estate wouldn't have a claim.

TeamCity works well but can be a bit expensive.

It has a Kotlin DSL that is quite powerful and flexible, but of course you need to know your way around Java to make the most of it.

They could be "not up to" because of lack of resources, probably time and/or money. I think that's what is implied, rather than lack of technical knowledge.
Imagine your real family was like a corporate family. You're at a family gathering and your grandfather calls you aside and tells you, "we're sorry, we're going to have to let you go. We don't think you're a good fit for our family. It's just not working out."
+1 to this. Travis, Circle and Jenkins are entirely in the rear view in this area for me now. My only concern about Actions has become that I use it too much.
