I've tested it before, multiple times; NAT won't deny an inbound connection. A router that's NATing outbound connections will allow inbound connections through unless there's also a firewall. Of course it's very common for there to be a firewall as well, but they're still a separate thing to NAT.

> And scanning IP spaces is insanely easy to parallelize and uses so few resources an arduino can be used to scan. Given enough nodes it’s instant.

You're underestimating how big v6 is. Scanning a single /64 takes ~737 million terabytes of traffic. If you used a trillion Arduinos in parallel you could scan 2^40 /64s simultaneously, and it would only take 1870 years for the scan to complete, assuming that every single one of both the Arduinos and the target networks have a 100 Gbit/s internet connection each. Your power consumption would be... about the same as Italy's, which is actually the most reasonable part of all this (except I assumed the 100 GBit/s network connections would take no power).

> And with every windows box on the planet globally routable, bonets will never be stronger.

You're thinking about botnets that spread by brute force scanning, right? But as mentioned, this will be substantially more difficult on v6, to the point that network scanning won't be a very viable technique for spreading a botnet. On top of that, most Windows machines will be behind two separate firewalls, so I don't see how them being globally routable will make botnets stronger. Given that it'll be harder to find targetable hosts, I'd instead expect botnets to be weaker than ever.

Also, remember that a lot of botnets spread by exploiting servers that were deliberately exposed to the internet. Making these hard to find is the only defence they have, and it's not possible on v4. NAT can't help either, however it works.

An insecure, hard-to-find machine is still an insecure machine, but making it difficult to find vulnerable hosts makes it harder to build a botnet, which leads to a very real increase of security on the internet as a whole. Even if a few machines are found, nothing much happens to the overall security so long as it remains hard enough on average.

Think of it as being something like vaccination for the internet.
I don’t think that’s the case. Most governments tell people to get a test if they have symptoms and the vast majority of tests are negative. This indicates that people are getting tests with mild symptoms of maybe-covid, in large numbers.

GWP already takes into account half life. This has been thoroughly explored. Leaked methane is 11x worse than the co2 formed by burning it when half life is taken into account.

Also, our best estimate is that the single half-life for excess CO2 lies within the range of 19 to 49 years, with a reasonable average being 31 years.

In our interview set, there is always a question that requires expert-level knowledge about a topic that the interviewee likely not know (well we'll ask them an easier question first and see if they can answer), then allow them to Google, and we watch the way they do it, their reading comprehension, analytical skills, generalization, assumption checking, .etc will all review. Harder to fake than leetcode questions.

Edit: our assumption is that someone can pull that off in 40-60 second Googling is a super-fast learner. So far we're doing great with our team.

Just because most popular operating systems have libraries, doesn't yet mean it is portable.

Can I click on it and open it in Excel?

If not then it is not portable for me and for a lot of other people.

The main reason I use CSV is to produce reports that I can either open myself or send to other people so that they can click on it and open themselves and immediately start hacking away.

Excel is still corporate lingua franca and until this changes CSV is not going to retire.

CSV means for me that I can send it to anybody and everybody will know how to use it.

Try sending SQLite binary to people you work with, to your accountant, to your wife. Then share your experience.
I believe, this is how scaling works, and exactly the price we pay to afford the top-notch. In any given field, company, pro sport team, there are top 10% labs/groups/players that matters the most. However, to make the 10% emerge, there has to be a pyramid where the rest 90% is responsible for forming a stable infrastructure. Then it comes down to how well we can design the pyramid. Our result should be evaluated not by how thin we cut down the infrastructure, but how easy we make top-players emerge.

On another note, I have seen small no-name labs published impactful scientific results, and then went back to stealth mode again. It's super cool. Science labs, unlike a business entity, should not be measured by recurrent revenue and growth.
I still have a few things like Authenticator rooted on my iPhone. I mostly use hardware tokens, so Authenticator is nice to have, but not critical for daily use. Signal is another one, I'm currently using the linked devices, but I don't have a "new root" yet.

I believe there are some Google Authenticator apps for KaiOS, just not in the main app store, and I've not gone through the process of working out sideloading yet.
I personally believe that at least SQLite matches all those criteria :

"1) A truly open format is available" : sqlite is open-source, MIT-licensed, and well specified (even though I am usually not so happy with its weak typing approach, yet in this case this precisely enables a 100% correspondance between CSV and sqlite since CSV has also no typing at all...)

"2) Applications have a speed increase from using csvs" : I think it should be obvious to everyone that this is the case...

"3) The new format should not be grossly larger than the one it is replacing" : this is also the case

This is definitely not the right analogy because one is a matter of risk, the other a matter of integrity.

New business ventures are inherently risky.

Research is inherently risky, and we would expect 90% to 'fail' but for 90% of papers to be rubbish would be a matter of 'extreme corruption' along the lines of 90% of judges taking bribes etc..

"I don't see a better system."

Well, one thing we could do is punish people for knowingly publishing crap results, i.e. have a 'secondary review system' that investigates 'why' results were rubbish, and if there was malfeasance, well, put in place some kind of retribution.

We could also change our tune with respect to expectations, and come to 'expect' that the majority of research should publish then 'null' result and that should just be it.

It is illegal for the US government to create a mandatory national identity system or coerce the States into creating one. The limits of this have been pretty thoroughly tested in the US Supreme Court.

Every time things like this come up, everyone asks why don't we just thing that looks like a national identity system to fix the issue, as if that never occurred to anyone in Congress. This is why: it violates the Constitution. Short of amending the Constitution, which seems highly unlikely, the US will never have a national identity system like European countries.

CSV is ubiqitous. That's a massive advantage. If you argue against using CSV you might make it less ubiquitous. You're never going to make anything as ubiquitous as CSV though and that's amply demonsrated by the fact that when you look at alternatives you immediately name 7 different things. And some of the advantages aren't even necessarily advantages - a file format storing typed values is a non-trivial consideration when you're thinking about cross-tool support. Pandas is cursed with this even in CSV - there wasn't an optional int so any column with missing values must be float, and floats don't necessarily handle large integers - have fun with your nanoseconds going funny in your nanosecond timestamps stored as optional ints.

CSV is ubiqituous because it's not trying to solve difficult problems. The second you try to solve the difficult problems you necessarily fragment your audience.

Also these things are BIG and HEAVY. I own multiple duvets and blankets, and they fit nicely in our closet. The weighted blanket has a permanent spot at the base our bed, because its so hard to get out and put away, and takes up a ton of space. I cannot imagine owning and storing multiple of them.

Or, we just have a natural/historical aversion to centralized power. Much of the nation initially started out believing that power should be local. Or you can simply make up nonsense about 'mark of the beast'.

OK, I think I understand the confusion now. I understood "readout" as hardware implementation detail (think: "readout circuit") while it seems to refer to the data of a particular channel, right? My lack of familiarity with the lingo seems to blame then.

Going through a hassle is effectively being liable, in this context. Especially when the credit reporting bureaus absolutely do not give a crap about you and make contacting them a job in itself.

Wow, that's interesting. I didn't know that's how CCDs worked. If I understand correctly, 1/3 of the "pixels" captured the red, 1/3 green, 1/3 blue. Does that mean the sensor now has 3x the resolution it had before?

Google workers are not even close to minimum wages. Their wages should be determined by supply and demand. If workers in some areas are willing to work for less for the same value, Google should cut their pay.

Often it is even 50% green, 25% red and 25% blue pixels. There are different patterns, though. What you get as "megapixel" number of cameras counts subpixels individually, that is a "10MP" labelled camera does not have 10 million pixels of each color but 10 million subpixels in total.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bayer_filter

If you have a device that can output RAWs, you can look at a RAW image using the FOSS photo development program "Darktable". Choose "photosite color" as the "demosaic" filter to show the individual color channel values (and thereby the Bayer pattern of your camera).

But yes, after removing the filter, you have three times the number of pixels but you lost color information.
It's a very different experience than I expected. When I think of the Alto I think of a windowing operating system but this boots into a command line. I've tried out most of the available disks but haven't yet found one that feels like a predecessor to the Apple Lisa.

Show HN: Developer platform that lets create and deploy conversational AI apps
Hey all,

I wanted to share with you this cool platform for developers that lets you build conversational AI apps in a matter of hours. Even a non-developer can build a demo app in less than 2 hours.

Why is Dasha unique?

* We have our own intuitive programming language - DashaScript. It's an event-driven language intended to describe a conversation script.

* We created Dasha Studio, an extension to VSCode. You use the studio to create your conversational script, it gives you syntax analysis and highlight. There's also a visual graph editor.

* Dasha CLI that lets you log in and get your API key that you can then use to execute conversational AI apps, and get diagnostic information about current usage, queues, and limits on Dasha Cloud Platform side.

* Dasha Cloud provides conversational AI as a service, which means that you don’t need to be a machine learning engineer to use machine learning when building Dasha conversational apps.

* We use GRPC for communication between SDK and the Dasha Cloud (more on that here https://dasha.ai/en-us/blog/conversational-application)

What apps can you build?

To illustrate how to build a conversational app and show its capabilities, here's an audio demo + tutorial on how to create a conversational AI app that automates hotel front desk receptionist tasks (and more): https://dasha.ai/en-us/blog/ai-hotel-front-desk

You can create apps for free, so give it a try: https://dasha.ai/en-us/ (just click on "API key" button and we'll provide you one so you can start building)

Also, we're hiring a DevRel, so if you are one or know one, apply or reach out! https://www.notion.so/dashaai/Dasha-is-hiring-6f2156ae251e4e9b94c841fff4fcd976

> I think this is a false axiom that young people have more potential. You actually have very low signal about people that age.

That's exactly why they have more potential: they're much higher variance. A lot of the "high-potential" people that have a bunch of experience will have already demonstrated this, and they'll be making $500k+ at a FAANG, which most companies won't be able to compete with.
This has so many happy side effects. Yesterday I was upgrading some code to use a newer version of an API. The old version stored timestamps as int seconds-since-epoch, but the new one stored them as ISO8601 strings. I replaced a line of code like:

if row['timestamp'] < cutoff_time_as_int: ...

with:

if row['isotimestamp'] < cutoff_time_as_string: ...

and everything kept working exactly as before. There was no expensive and error prone date parsing involved, some some simple string comparison. It wasn't quite as cheap as comparing ints, but it's not performance critical code so eh, good enough.
I think this is a good point too - venture companies and research SHOULD have two very different distributions
Pretty sure they could come to an arrangement where they go on tv, apologize to Dominion and admit to being caught up in the moment to the point where they made things up and did not do any due diligence with their sources. Dominion knows they cannot pay but they cannot stand by and let their reputations be trashed. The fact they are being sued at this point is entirely their own doing so I have no sympathy for them.
You know, I can understand why the Terrorist Watch List is secret ― but not why the No Fly list is. If there is a list that governmental agencies and/or commercial companies are obliged to check you're not on before providing you with their service, then surely such list must be public or at the very least, one should be able to easily inquire about whether he/she is on it or not.

For a related example, Russian government maintains a list of banned Internet resources. The list is not public — at least in theory — but there is an official web site where you can input an URL or a domain name and it would response either with "no, it's not on the list", or with "yes, it's on the list, here's who ordered it and when".
