At first this looks rather shady, but upon closer look may technically not be. If I've understood the timeline right:

1. From 2016-2019, Tesla said that FSD would someday be available via a $10k software update, and that all their cars came with all the hardware that would be required to use that update.

2. In mid-2019, Tesla started installing more powerful hardware on their new cars.

3. They have now started offering FSD as a subscription service. They do not offer the one-time $10k FSD product.

4. The FSD they are offering via that subscription service requires the new hardware. Tesla owners with the old hardware who want to use the subscription service will have to pay $1500 to upgrade the old hardware.

It comes down to whether or not the subscription FSD counts as the FSD from #1, or if it counts as a different FSD product with different requirements.

Legally, I'm sure they are in the clear because the subscription product is in no way even remotely FSD and so they can claim that #1 is referring to some future real FSD.
Can someone just let us know of a single supplement that’s been prove to help fight aging?

Just one daily pill we can take to help prolong life starting today?

Because in our lifetime, before reversing things, it’ll probably be preserving things first.

So we should try to start preserving things now.
Yes, not screwing up the biome on which we all depend to live (and countless other species) is definitely a political motive.

Your own comment that you've linked here, which mentions Russ Allbery, has him quoted saying, "Most of those [systemd] components are clearly superior to anything we have available now on Linux platforms and will be used in the distribution going forward".

Then there's Fedora, which is upstream of Red Hat, who has many of it's contributors as Red Hat employees, so I don't see how it's odd that they would adopt software that Red Hat are invested in.

Paradoxes are just inconsistencies you must resolve to make your model of reality useful.

Stating that reality is a simulation to resolve the inconsistencies is not useful.
The main thing is the lists are repeatable. After completing a list you can uncheck the whole list. It's set up for routine checklists/daily tasks that you do over again. Or packing lists you need to repeat.
Show HN: ReverseSSH – lightweight SSH server behaving like a reverse shell
I think a crusade would be more likely since they were at least based on words from the Bible and their religious beliefs. The sex scandals go against the religion and the Bible, so there is no reason to expect AI to get fancy on the altar boys, as the previous comment suggests.

The problems that AI has now would be multiplied if based on religious teachings (Go ye out into all the world and preach the Gospel). It would definitely be homophobic and racist, and only 120,000 Jews would be worthy of Heaven. It would consider making someone else's life completely miserable as something the victim should be thankful for (the book of Job). It would consider only the most extreme societal outcomes (eating of one's own children, fiery pits). There are so many stories in the Bible that, if things God commanded of His followers were to be acted out today, would be met with severity of law (God telling Abraham to stab his son Isaac to death to prove his love for Him, not suffering a witch to live). AI would believe that strange angels walk among us (Sodom and Gomorrah, Ezekiel's wheels within wheels). AI would believe that a Father can bear a Son by impregnating someone else's virgin wife, and that Son would be the same being as the Father. AI would believe you can build by hand, a building so tall it would reach Heaven, and that's where all our different languages come from. AI would believe we don't need tractors anymore, since faith the size of a mustard seed (a strange measurement of faith if I ever heard one) is all you need to move a mountain.

The Bible paints a rather bizarre and inhospitable life for us, and subsequent religious cannons even more so.
Alright, good to know! Will send a report :)
I have one of these, too, a model from 1992. They're interesting since they've got persistent memory and programmability and also used to have expansion cards(!) which are very rare nowadays. However, programming them is rather complicated, you have to literally count bytes and enter the correct offsets. You can get these interesting machines new from Ukraine for about $20 on Ebay (with condensators fixed, which tend to go bad after so long time). Be aware that the keyboards tend to mushy and are not high quality, though.
Occupation of Germany/Japan was also substantially different in nature. By the end of ww2 both countries had been depleted of all war making capacity in people, equipment, and industrial capacity.

Even then, the occupations were limited to specific military bases that both sides would view as positive for defense against external threats.
Practically all of this happened in Spain. Recently one of the higher courts ruled our first lockdown, which was absolute, as unconstitutional. Over a year later! They will return all the money they stole from us in fines. But what about the time, and our rights? If I had known this I would've gone out...

And they have the media in their pockets so no one will complain. Until recently we were forced to wear a mask always, even if we were completely alone in the middle of the street. The police kicked doors down if they suspected there was a reunion going on in your private property. It was a nightmare.

If you are American, cherish your freedom! You don't know how valuable it is.
It is a good question, but I'm guessing that the whole reason for creating the database in the first place is to test interactions with the database, in which case you'd have to mock up all the interactions being tested (selects, deletes, joins, etc.).

Hi HN,

with the help of a colleague I wrote ReverseSSH, which is a statically linked ssh server that can connect back to your machine and listens for incoming connections there.
It is intended to be used during penetration tests, CTFs or HackTheBox challenges.

ReverseSSH let's you easily extend an initial foothold on a target system to fully interactive shell access, file transfer via sftp and ssh's port forwarding capabilities.
If you prefer and it's applicable to your situation, you can also let it listen locally, just like you would with a bind shell (or a normal ssh server).
Currently it works both on linux and windows, on current as well as on older OS versions (kernel >= 2.6.23, windows 7/windows server 2008R2).

The idea for it came to my mind while doing plenty of HackTheBox challenges where I often felt limited by the capabilities of generic reverse shells, especially on windows targets.
While I grew quite comfortable with metasploit's multi handler to catch incoming reverse shells and its session handling, this solution lacked interaction with arrow keys or tab and did not even touch the topic of file transfers or port forwarding.
Of course the meterpreter payload goes in that direction as well, but I avoided using it.

I did find some other static ssh servers written in Go, but they either lacked features like sftp or port forwarding, or were not compatible with windows; so here it is!

Looking forward to hear what you think!

Depending on conditions, and if there are no Botts’ Dots, lane markers can be pretty tough to see in a heavy rain. Computer vision with many eyes may one day beat us here.
Actually the most remarkable thing you find is how _little_ structure you need to get evolution algorithms to work. I've thrown together random structures with feedback that are inherently nonlinear and chaotic, and evolutionary algorithms are able to quickly find parameters that stabilize them and optimize for the survival reward. The solutions are incredibly clever and in my case sometimes matched designed that were in PhD theses that took a human decades to design by hand.

Similarly the details of the evolutionary 'training' also tend not to matter much, just about any algorithm that prefers better instances (by whatever metric) with a very slightly higher probability will converge after a reasonable number of generations.

Exponential processes are always surprising. If you have a trait or parameter than confers only a 1% chance of helping survival, it will have an effect of (1.01)^100 =2.7x after only 100 generation. After 1000 generations the effect is 21,000x.
The mobile app is so bad, nearly nothing works the way it should. Tap a Notification, you‘re lucky if the right mail opens, try to attach images on iOS? For while it sent HEIV images instead of jpegs, so normal people were out of luck; hope it doesn‘t crash? It does. The UI is also pretty ugly.

But it‘s not only the app that is bad, the web client was quite functional for a while apart from the missing login persistence. Then came the new UI now it just kind of works. Try to move/tag many mails after each other? Now you also have to deal with clicking away success boxes as they start piling up and overlapping the very UI elements you are trying to reach. There are threads but for some reason they are way more cumbersome to use than GMail’s. Everything is gigantic now as well. I haven‘t checked yet but during the beta I could just not find some settings anymore. Hope they got added before launch.

Insertion performance on a single table are very very hard to optimize.

A single process looping it is your best bet.

I would just increase the batch size, which is the most influent factor.

Then another point... When you do batches, you do

BEGIN TRANSACTION;
for i in range(1, 50):
execute_stmt
COMMIT;

You do not create a long list of parameters.

Thank you, Spencer. I’ve installed this and am looking forward to trying it. One thing I’ve found is that many other “repeating task” apps just create a copy of the new task each day. If I’m not diligent about it, I get four “Work out” tasks three of which have expired.

I’m looking forward to seeing how your app handles this. Looks like it’s just the thing I need to manage my routine.

Edit: Hmm, I need the checklist to stay checked for the day and then clear on some cadence automatically.

I don’t want it immediately unchecked because that ruins my comfort at having things checked off.

I don’t want it to stay checked because if I have to uncheck it myself the next day that’s not going to happen.
> Every C++ app I’ve worked on that relies on a dll would checksum the dll against a list of acceptable versions

Never worked on any software which does that. Checking DLLs the way you described is a guaranteed way to break software after a windows update, or a driver update.

There’re many reasons why foreign DLLs can be loaded into your process. CreateRemoteThread is on the exotic side of things, other reasons are way more common.

Direct3D runtime loads user-mode DLLs implemented by nVidia/Intel/AMD/vmware/etc. MediaFoundation runtime loads quite a few DLLs, some of them third-party, implementing various transforms like codecs and containers. Many security-related software like firewalls load their DLLs into every process to check things. Some system software implements custom network protocols in DLLs, e.g. both HyperV and VMWare do that for their virtual networks. Apps like spy++ are using system-wide hooks, again that’s a foreign DLL loaded into every GUI program on that desktop. Many productivity apps like MS Office or Photoshop support scripting, users can often consume arbitrary DLLs in these scripts using LoadLibrary, COM and/or .NET.
It’s amazing how scared everyone has become of social media mobs. We are regressing.
If the custom DOM element is deleted, then its entry in the map will also be deleted. Otherwise it would hang around in the Map forever (unless manually deleted in a lifecycle callback).
> As a parent you want to have deeper and meaningful conversations that allow for instruction, guidance, and mentoring. These things cannot happen if there is a clinical mental illness in the way.

If we are talking about ADHD, this is bullshit.

As someone that wasn’t medicated as a kid and had a lot of meaningful conversations, had mentors, learnt, went to college, built a career, screw your attitude.

If we are talking of that extreme of a case, that’s why medication is there.

But back to the original part, to me it just sounds like you also need to learn how to work with them.
If I were Russia I would be much less worried of conflict if competing oil companies were not bankrolling opposition to my land grab.
Category theory would help them. Yoneda's lemma tells us that elements of collections are uniquely isomorphic to the transformations which create those elements. This explains the butterfly effect where seemingly-unrelated parts of logical statements are causally connected.

This post would have had bite 70 years ago, before we had "formally formal" theories of categories which can subsume any possible set theory. But now the door is closed. Interestingly, the transformations seem to be more important than the elements; whether a logic is e.g. reversible is a property of transformations and not collections.
This is merely a mathematical representation of the paradox.
By "these services" I meant that banks didn't offer online banking at first. When they did, they didn't offer online payments or check scanning.
The problem with herd immunity is that the rate differs based on the variant. For something much more transmissible (like the Delta variant), herd immunity numbers are much different than for the original one. There's an argument that the US reached herd immunity on the original one pretty early on in vaccinations. And alpha with current vaccination rates. It's clear we haven't with Delta because numbers are going way up in unvaccinated people.
You just do raw byte copies from sample DB, no SQL or "inserts" or anything similar. Imagine test database consists of 3 parts (all raw bytes)

### PROLOGUE
### Sample row
### EPILOGUE

You copy & write prologue, write 1B sample raws (can optimize this at will, large writes, etc)

Copy & write epilogue and fsync the data. You probably need to modify some metadata, but that should be a few writes at most.

That should be as good as it gets, providing your IO is optimal.
The article is totally misleading. Musk promised several times that who bought FSD , they’ll have free update. Package include both software and hardware. And that’s still the case

Hey all, author here. I didn't expect this to reach front page of HN. I came here to submit and it was here already! I am looking for more ideas to experiment. Here's one idea which someone from another forum gave me: exploring recursive queries and using SQLite random methods to do the insertions.

Another crazy idea is to learn about SQLite file format and just write the pages to disk.

> I haven't tried the full self driving beta since I wasn't about to give Tesla ten grand so the car can change its own lanes, but I can't imagine it's any better.

So you admit you know nothing about the FSD beta (you think you will enter it by buying FSD) and then say you can't imagine it's any better? Please look for yourself. It's all over YouTube and comparing Autopilot to the FSD Beta is like comparing apples to oranges.

He didn't say "get" oxygen. He said make oxygen. Yeah plants do ingest CO2 + H2O to make oxygen via photosynthesis. Oxygen is arguably a more toxic gas than CO2. It causes fires and oxidation. Dose make the poison. All aerobic metabolising organism exhale CO2. They have been for billions of years. The sky hasn't fallen. Some how I doubt it will from one species of animal burning fossils for a few tens of decades.
(1) One needs to make it useful because the model is sufficiently invalid to not be practical. (2) There is a distinct difference between (a) understanding of practicality and (b) understanding of the fundamental object/system being practical, though I agree that there is no practicality in the pursuit of proving this per-se.
I don‘t know what exactly it is but the posts on their blog always make me frustrated and angry. The mix of content marketing and technical details is just infuriating. It just feels like they start with an immense heap of bullshit and then start weaving in some nuggets of information.

Global shipping container shortage: the story so far
The hunting parts were FPS. At least on the MS-DOS version.
Pictured in the article is a 1950 Commander Starlight Coupe... That was the car I learned to drive in, back in 1984 or so, tearing around the back field in an ex-police car with a "3 on the tree" manual transmission and far more mass than brakes.

When i got that car it had sat in a barn for years without maintenance; I was an ignorant pre-teen barely competent to change the spark plug in a motorcycle; its amazing I got the thing to run and move. I think the biggest challenge was someone had to explain the distributor cap to me and help get the timing adjusted.

I don't think any 30 year old cars today would be anywhere near as simple to re-vivify. Even the Yugo was more complicated.
The hunting part was FPS
That much is true, and I find they can build up a lot of psychological pressure if you take them seriously. They are certainly not suitable for everyone and in every situation.
I’m certainly all for community projects like this, but you’re right. This is just creating an under-the-table economy. For some reason The NY Times gets mad at people who do legal tax avoidance, but supports the “little guy” making outright under-the-table income.
Let's say you bougt in 2018, the website very clearly stated that FSD would be available by the end of that year, and that the car already contained all of the hardware necessary for FSD. FSD has been about to be available by the end of the year, every year since then, but that is beside the point.

If that person today decides they want an FSD subscription, they now need to pay an additional 1500 since the computer originally installed and advertised as FSD capable, is infact not capable of FSD.

However, if they want to pay 10k outright, no subscription, for FSD, then the upgrade of that computer, again, that was originally advertised as being able to do FSD, but actually couldn't, is free.
Tesla has claimed that the cars they sold had the hardware necessary for self driving. Now that a new chip is required they are tacitly admitting that they made a false claim in advertising their cars. They either need to provide the upgrade for free or compensate buyers.
To me, the more fundamental problem is the fact that we spread state across multiple computers.

If you only mutate state on the server and simply send views back down to the clients, nearly all of "modern" web development practices can be safely ignored.

Clearly, there are difficult engineering challenges with the approach of "all state on the server all the time", but anything worthwhile is never easy. Down this path you might not obtain Netflix-tier webscale directly out of the box, but that doesn't mean we throw our hands up and have all our clients drown in multiple megabytes of angular11+ dependency trash either.

How many internet users are more than 50ms away from a Cloudflare/Microsoft/Google/Netflix CDN in 2021? How many cores can you get in a 1U server now? Distributed state machines for client UIs have been a massive mistake.
Hadn't heard of it but seems interesting, thanks for posting. Here's a good in-depth article about it from a couple of days ago if anyone is interested:

Well there’s your problem.

We don’t need more code. In general, code is a liability. A tool that helps create more configurations of the same terrible boilerplate incantations that we already have to maintain in a million code based is just adding to the problem.

One can also have a similar setup on Qubes OS.
Does the universe have a designer then? It’s a pretty bold metaphysical assumption that the universe is undesigned and purposeless, but it somehow gave rise to an environment where intelligent beings can design formal systems that accurately describe the design of a system with no designer.

This is part of the appeal of the simulationist philosophy, it allows intelligent design, but without the assumptions of monotheism. Naturally like everything else in this space it in turn introduces new difficulties.
The subscription didn’t exist in 2016. If you buy full time FSD pack , hardware will be still free. Makes total scene. And I don’t understand people crying here about vapor ware, not real FSD etc … it’s optional. I personally bought it and I’m happy.
Does anyone know if you can do color accurate work with this setup (non HDR) ?
