I disagree. Google announced the same thing for Google Drive and didn’t receive this level of pushback. If you’re Apple, the only way that’s possible is if you explained it badly (i.e. differently than Google did).

I’m guessing their real prerogative is to keep unlawful content from ever reaching their servers. You wouldn’t know that from reading their press releases though.
-Not the OP, but the situation in Norway is that new EVs are incredibly competitively priced compared to ICE vehicles, as we tax the latter to high heaven while the former are exempt from just about any tax. This is how it ought to be to speedily increase EV market share.

However, if your personal finances suggest a used vehicle is the way to go, your options are rather limited, and will be for a few more years until the current EVs start trickling down. Current 2nd hand EV offerings mostly are Leafs and eGolfs, with a generous helping of Teslas (still rather pricey) on top.

If you need a large-ish family car and cannot afford a new EV, you'll be driving an ICE for a few more years - more if the authorities start taxing EVs to bring them more in line with ICE levels, boosting 2nd hand prices.
Your view of the 1900s is very idyllic.
Which photos does Apple scan? Also of emails and messages? Could you swat somebody by sending them benign images that have the same hash?
Then we shall see if they find success. We clearly have different hypotheses in how they should approach their messaging. That’s fine.

Take a look at https://allblk.tv/. Inclusively, yet unapologetically, black. It’s not that hard and really we’re not just talking about appeasing message board nerds here. If that was the case they really shouldn't listen to anybody on this forum, now should they?
So you’re technically correct, operationally incorrect. When CSAM is detected there is also the possibility of new, unhashed, CSAM being found amongst the suspects other files.
Plus the us constitution grants congress the power to “fix the Standard of Weights and Measures” in article 1, section 8. The official measure is exactly what measurement Canada isn’t supplying. If the us congress did want to impose a standard accuracy for dc fast chargers the weights and measures clause plus the commerce clause would give them all the authority they need without encroaching on states rights.

> Only if the post praises BLM and criticizes MAGA... Lots of people have lost their jobs (and even dropped from public funded colleges) because of this.

I've never heard of such a thing. Could you give a specific example of these "lots of people"?
The main issue is that it's a single 120V circuit for everything in the garage, including the garage door opener. Assuming you open the garage door (say with a remote garage door opener) while the car is charging, it will trip the breaker in the basement. IIRC your average garage door opening motor uses 500W to 700W while in operation.

So at the least I need to install a second circuit. But the cost of installation is mostly tied into labor rather then material since it involves bringing out a trenching machine out. And the cost difference between just 1 extra 120V circuit and a full blown 240V service with subpanel is significant, but not bad enough for me to think it's makes sense to penny pinch there.

Edit: Well in theory you could also have a receiver and relay that cuts off the charging to the car before initiating powering the garage door motor. That said I don't think it's worth the hassle... at minimum that's two electrical mechanical relays for the 120V lines, some sort of RF receiver for the car, a controller for the relays and to probably some way to signal the garage door itself (replacement for the button inside maybe), and way for the controller to state of the door itself so that it doesn't cut power at the wrong time. Certainly hackable but I doubt I could build it reliable without way more money and time spent on it.
> Having the explicit length is quite superfluous

Not entirely. It makes it so that, to achieve a "full" collision, you have to ensure that the sets of data collide both in SHA hash and in length, helping to prevent attacks that rely on appending/prepending/removing data (for example, "length extension attacks" involve manipulation of the hash by appending data).

TL;DR: It is harder to find a collision SHA(B) for SHA(A) if you add the additional constraint that the length of B must match the length of A.
Rust is already used as a C replacement in some cases. However, as I said (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28094998), just talking about a C replacement without mentionning why you were using C in the first place and what you value in a replacement isn't really productive.
Specifically, arch wasn't running any zero-conf services out of the box. CUPS would auto-detect the printer just fine, but then try to connect to it via an mDNS hostname, and the connection would fail. Once I figured that out and got mDNS working, it's been reliable.

A lot of wifi problems are due to bad/flaky access point hardware. Notably, a lot of the internet recommended "good" consumer wifi gear actually sucks from a reliability point of view. It took me months to get my home setup reliable enough to take it for granted.
I don’t think there is a building in Seattle even close to 100 floors.

I don't think the article's SIGIO example made much sense -- if you have delimited continuations, you _don't_ need defunctionalize them if they're staying in-process.

Isn’t this what we tell our managers to make them feel better about our estimates? I’ve never ever seen or heard of a software project being delivered on time and under budget.

This makes me think, how do we know for sure that apple can't keylog WhatsApp or other e2e correspondence?
Is it obvious in some open source code like signal or are there other hacks to prove/disprove this as a user?
There is no such thing as "weaponized" speech, speech cannot be a weapon as it does not do physical harm. It can certainly provoke the use of weapons but we already have laws against the use of weapons and as speech is not a necessary cause in the vast majority of cases then it would be silly to make a rule against it. If you disagree then my rebuttal is to urge everyone who reads this to go on a killing spree. I confidently predict that no one will follow that exhortation, and if they did, that would be down to them as others could quite clearly control themselves better (the clue is in control themselves).

Secondly, "hate" speech, "weaponized" speech, objectionable speech, rude speech, loud speech, pick whatever adjective you like… are all free speech as long as they are free to be uttered without punishment, especially with respect to the law. You may claim the opposite but that would be you redefining what free speech is in a way that no one who has ever advocated for free speech has. You may as well tell people who are in a place where cannabis is legal that legal cannabis is not legal. You would simply be redefining things in a way that only suits you, but it would not be via reason and it certainly wouldn't be persuasive.
At this point, I can't help thinking it created more problems than it solved.
I think you mean liberal values. The paradox of the left includes censorship, gun control, etc..
Not in a way that makes much sense. Allowing other stores wouldn't break the sandboxing.
My team tried that too. We were laughed out of the room. The project failed. We’re starting a new project with exactly the same mindset. But this time it’s different, I’m sure.
It's the opposite: without the developer understanding the thing, there can be no bug fixes nor new features, and therefore no salary.

I'm afraid I may have dragged you down with me. Johnny thought he saw CCP behind the tree, so the surrounding transnational region needs to be firebombed as a precautionary measure. One has to go along with it, or one is immediately court marshaled as a secret CCP sympathizer.

Anyway, now that we're at the bottom of the comment thread and just talking to each other, thanks for vouching for me. You probably saved me from being hammered even deeper into the downvote pit.
I believe you. But it's not a stretch to say that "open source" was coined to mean something different than "free software" and it could be a proverbial hill to die on, ideologically.

Ask HN: Best VPS provider for remote development?
I tried Digital Ocean so far, but in order to save some money I want to be able to disable the VM for a night for example. But with DO you need to 1) create a snapshot 2) destroy the droplet 3) recreate the droplet (and choose the configuration (num of cores, ram, etc)) when you need the VM again. Tedious. What do you use? Thanks.
why are most English websites English only? They are all created by the Brit?
Not really. Key management is done by the SEP, which can’t be introspected. And again, database updates take an iOS update so the back door threat is the exact same.
Ideally I think this could be resolved by having electrified freeways, so you can charge while driving and only have to stop because you need rest/food/etc...

We're a long ways from that, or even having the political will to start planning, let alone construction. It would do wonders for vehicle cost and weight, though, if people could get by with a 100-mile battery and still be able to make cross-country trips. And the environmental and cost benefits of electrified trucking would be huge.

Giving money to Google is not an option. Ever. Hell half the reason why I love Xiaomi is they're threatening the status quo of the tech industry!
As long as I'm not seeing any ads and not giving money to software developers I'm satisfied privacy be damned.
Ok but PhotoDNA has been doing this scanning for a decade, I believe, and none of these things have happened despite how easy it would seem to be?

Or have Microsoft, Google, Apple, Facebook, etc., been doing this with such stealth that no-one has actually noticed it happening yet?
None of those are honestly compelling enough for me to again spend the set up time. I must send a YouTube link at most once a week if that and my IDE does all of the github interactions you list already, with a decent debugger on top. I could generate uuid's with two lines of python.
If the information is that high value the submitter is free to translate it themselves. Readers don't have any more moral duty to machine translate and pick through a foreign language submission than they do to try and glean value from a submission written in terrible English by a teenybopper who doesn't use capitalization or punctuation and fills the page with emojis.

There are plenty of articles full of meme-speak that are intensely fascinating but I know if I want to share them with HN I'd better find or produce a version they'll find readable.
How? The leases I see are 300. Big downplayment?
I agree that those past projects were too small, and from what I understand they were really pedantic about what was coming in and out of the space. Rather than being so pure about it, I think it would be better to develop a system that was _mostly_ independent, then as we understand and get better at running it start closing it off.

I actually don't agree that a system of any size will just balance itself. I think maintaining a closed system that can maintain human life, as we know it now, indefinitely, would take a lot of careful balancing. It would need constant monitoring and intervention. Something as simple as an algal bloom could wipe out everything else living in your water. If your bees die of some disease, you lose pollination, and all your fruit.

Can you imagine how much tech and effort it would be to manage every bee in your colony to make sure they all don't just die one season. And what do you do if your bee population crashes, you have to have some kind of bee breeding program to get the numbers back up.

The earth doesn't somehow just balance itself, the earth could become one vast desert in just a few generations. Pockets of live here and there for thousands of years no doubt, but enough to sustain human life?
> Why stop at users who have iCloud photos turned on? Why not scan all photos?

If they wanted to, they could have done this silently, years ago when the Neural Engine was first released. This is at least an attempt at a transparent, privacy-oriented approach. And it opens the door to more E2EE content in iCloud without the government openly accusing them of enabling distribution of abusive content.
I signed this, but I'm very doubtful this will ever achieve something.

But this made me wonder: is there an history of people complaining about this sort of things and actually achieving something?

I think this might have happened with MSFT's hailstorm/passport, where in the end industry opposition meant the project was abandoned, but I can't recall other instances.

I think they meant that when they ran Google's automatic import tool it reinstalled all the forcefully installed Google apps from the old phone. The difference with lineageos though is that you can uninstall them afterwards.
Look, I get it. Cancel culture isn’t healthy for our society, but can we be realistic about our examples? JKR is doing just fine after posting her transphobic screed last year. The various lawmakers across the US that sponsored anti-trans legislation this year haven’t been forcibly removed from office. Leading up to the presidential debates last year, speakers at the RNC made explicitly transphobic comments. Trump himself has started to wade into the fray. None of these people have lost their jobs, livelihoods, or platforms as a result. Yeah, some people decided they didn’t want to read JKR’s books any more, but when her essay is being read in debates in both UK parliament and US congress I wouldn’t exactly say she lost her platform. I’m not saying backlash to anti-trans sentiment doesn’t exist, but can we at least acknowledge that the backlash isn’t nearly as severe as you’re implying?

The article doesn't seem to consider security devices especially cameras and intrusion detection systems as smart home devices which have seen the largest adoption worldwide.

Households which have never heard about Alexa, Apple Home/Google Nest have IP Security cameras with robust motion detection/alert system and in many parts of the world they're credible deterrence as house owner having a gun is not a thing.

That doesn't mean security cameras don't have issues, most are already part of bot net, will never get a security update, hard-linked to the app(Even RTSP is unavailable) and of course privacy issues concerning always on devices in our home sold by companies which don't have reputation for respecting privacy.

But aforementioned issues can be addressed with hardened security cameras along with accessible self-hosted software which are now delegated to only those who wish to get their hands dirty.
I think about this often myself, since it's a real possibility I'll end up with a windfall eventually. I'm not sure how to provide you with suggestions specific to your interests and situation, but I can share my personal conclusions, at risk of this being a bit of a weird comment.

On the event of financial independence, I'll focus on building a larger coliving community of people who I trust and share similar interests and values to me. I already practice this on a small scale, by splitting a large house with four longtime friends. It has been great for my mental health and social life, as well as professional life, to live with other low-drama young professionals. But long term as we grow older I think there will be an expectation for more room, likely for families, and I think this is a problem that more money can help fix. Anyway, to the degree that I and my housemates have our shared values and resources, it already has enabled me to pursue pro-social goals without particular need for an employer to empower me. My personal sense of impact has been confined to just our broad social group, so maybe if you're concerned about having impact at the societal level, this wouldn't be satisfying to you (it is to me). But, (and sorry if this all sounds vague), I have found that the impact I've been able to have on our broader social group by providing a focal point for both fun and productive activities is the most accessible way I've been able to have any measurable impact on society. I don't regret thinking small.
Because it’s based on machine learning, why can’t some of the network and weights used for the hash be shared? So we can be sure it is not possible to match anything else than children.

The sub narrow network used for detecting only CP is of course secret, but then we know it can’t be used for revealing pictures of police, activists etc
The difference is that Google doesn’t advertise itself as a bastion of privacy. Google spying on you is expected. More consumers also pay for iCloud vs Google Drive. Expectations change when you’re paying for a service.
We are not here by accident. Those are symptoms of a public that doesn't care. We have been explaining the consequences of each choice for techs during the last 20 years. I've had the talk with my friends and familly many times. Very patiently. Very nicely.

Nobody cares. It's just an annoyance for them.

And it requires an enormous more amounr of energy to live your live this way than not caring. Even more if you gotta explain.

And so here we are.

> Can you point to a single instance where it was used for ulterior purposes?

That's the sick genius of parallel construction: without leaks, we'd never be able to know. (And yes, there are plenty of instances of abuse, brought to the public despite the risk whistleblowing entails.)

Ask yourself this: even if the "right" people are in control of this system now, could the "wrong" people ever gain control of it? If the answer is yes, maybe the system should not exist.
It doesn't, Android telemetry hidden deeply inside. You can't disable it with build flags or packages removing.

Does WhatsApp still work? I care about privacy and degoogling but I'm not yet quite ready to abandon my social network over it. Currently I use lineageos with the micro Google apps bundle which provides the real Play Store services and WhatsApp still works. I'd be happy to use the replacement if that was still the case.

EDIT: for clarity, by "micro Google apps bundle" I mean the opengapps [1] micro variant.

This is short sighted since political parties are both playing for the same team: they are owned by finance and corporations. These are entities that are absolutely not going to allow the radical changes needed to stay within 2c temperature gain (which is still bad, millions will die, but maybe not catastrophic for the species as a whole). Alas, 2c is already priced in given current policies, we will be lucky to stay below 3c. The societal changes from that alone will be devastating.

How to Mock for Unit Testing. By LAI TOCA
Here's how it will probably go wrong; because privacy abuses always sit on a slippery slope:

Detect CP

Detect child abuse

Detect signs of child abuse

Detect signs of abuse

Detect signs of violent crime

Detect violent crime

Detect crimes

Detect "crimes"

People not believing me, then tell one example of a privacy encroaching policy that didn't expand its original scope of "think of the children" and "terrorism".

The worst part is that they are probably doing it and abusing it and are now seeking a way to normalize their conduct.

Is that true?

I had a quick search and i only found one case - a Michael J Dale covered in various outlets alleging dismissal for MAGA support back in 2018. However, i cant find that the case actually went to court. It appears Michael has decided against testing his claim in court?

I can find some cases for the opposite - dismissal for criticising president Trimp:

Jeff Klinzman had his day in court and was awarded a payout.

Rob Rogers didn’t go through courts but former employer on record in the Guardian newspaper confirming reason for his dismissal was his criticism of trump.

Craig Silverman again didn’t go via courts but his previous employer confirmed the reason for his shows termination.

Allegations that don’t appear to have gone to court yet:

> Apple's mistake is that they seemingly believe there is pushback because people misunderstand how it works. The reality is more nuanced: People understand exactly how it works, and how it works is that it is turn-key onboard spyware, that Apple pinky-swears isn't being used wrong today.

It's not a mistake. It's gaslighting.
> If there are enough hash matches, Apple apparently gets to look at all the pictures on the phone.

Not according to the technical summary PDF they released[1], "Only those images that have a voucher that corresponds to a true CSAM match can have their vouchers’ data decrypted [...] Even if the device-generated inner encryption key for the account is reconstructed based on the above process, the image information inside the safety voucher for non-matches is still protected by the outer layer of encryption"
