That's the typical outcome, but not by exception to this analysis; if a work of music or drama included an equally poorly worded "license", then the rights and obligations of all parties would similarly fall back to the terms of service of the platform through which the work was acquired, with a backstop of the Berne Convention, TRIPS agreement, TPPT, and various EU directives (or rather more specifically, the local implementation of those, assuming your jurisdiction is a signatory to any).
> ASML has a monopoly on this tech

A lot of this tech is the result of more than 30 years of research, starting with national labs (DOE funded Sandia, LLNL, etc), then consortiums of Intel, AMD, etc (EUV LLC), in fact, ASML was a member of EUV LLV and specifically, because some of the techniques they're using was originally pioneered by DOE Labs and EUV LLC members, they had to get approval from DOE/EUV AFAIK.

Also, the core laser tech, tin droplets, was actually pioneered by Cymer, but they bought Cymer wholesale. So part of the issue is they vertically integrated a lot of the very difficult components of their machine by buying smaller companies.

This would be like TSMC buying ASML and preventing other fabs from getting access. It's definitely bad for the market, and EUV is so damn expensive it took 30 years of R&D and a consortium of companies to even get to this point. The competing technologies, using different Lasers, would need enormous funding to get them to work.

EUV LLC built a 100-nm EUV prototype almost 20 years ago using a different technique, but gave up on that path. There's also electron beam lithography (EBL) which is maskless AFAIK, but I don't think it ever made it to production either. I guess Intel and other players decided it was better to just own ASML stock.

So the world seems stuck with ASML, unless of course, China gets a hold of one of the machines and decides to just clone it and ignore patents.
My words exactly, I even considered leaving a comment on the issue but decided to leave it to you I guess.

The author of this should've taken a walk before writing this, you've got to trudge half way through to finally get to the point, which is apparently "someone who walks to think walked to think on why we walk to think"

You're leaning really, really hard into your claim that everyone is just overreacting to the simile/metaphor aspect of it. And going out of your way to provide example after belabored example of how metaphors shouldn't be taken literally.

None of what you described requires being in a family to accomplish. When I run into people at work that rub me the wrong way, I put on a professional face and treat them with respect as much as the situation warrants to get our job done. You could almost describe it as a ... relationship between co-workers.
Yeah, I'm aware, but you need to accurately compute abs/magnitude, which presents its own complexities.
Including exponentials, it's highly related to the non-trivial accurate computation of trigonometric functions of floats.
ASML makes the machines that make the chips. They can do their own runs of whatever chips they need, because they have to fully test the multi-million dollar machines before they disassemble them and ship them out.
My experience has been that I’ve installed very few extensions, and all of them improve the editing experience. I haven’t added anything that provides an IDE experience, I just use those features that are built in.

I was thinking of starting this kind of service, but I got scared by the potential liabilities and legal issues of giving a person basically a second identity.

How would this work for hotels and stuff? Do you basically make a fake company, open a bank account in its name, and use that account to buy stuff discreetly?

What if the person you a proxying for bought something illegal with the account? Who’s liable?

One of my favorite philosophy papers: "Vehicles and Crashes: Why is this Moral Issue Overlooked?" by Douglas Husak. He argues, base on data that SUVs have a high crash incompatibility with other cars, they are immoral. SUVs impose disproportionate damage to other cars, resulting in excess deaths and injuries that otherwise would not happen.

My biggest problem with all this is the thought that have got rid of this entire virus by being a little more strict.

Norway was down to 0-5 infections a day last summer even when the society was open.

Then we opened the door for foreign workers (and not a bad thing about them) and the industry who had promised to take care of quarantines etc failed so hard that all of a sudden wehad another wave.

I'm moderately conservative but disappointed with both conservative politicians and rhe industry for this.
Did they improve? Anecdotally, as a kid in the 80s, I can recall plenty of shams being published. They were limited by physical printing and word of mouth.

Going digital just made this information even easier to transmit faster and farther.
I don't think I-5 is the problem. City streets are the problem. Cars, bicycles, and pedestrians will always mix there, and there is no reasonable street design where that won't happen.
This was certainly our experience when we were children. Near universal, I'd wager. But I don't think it's nearly as true for parents born in the eighties and nineties.

And to the extent that it might be true, it's still not a valid excuse for objecting to the existence of any such tools.

I think the Microsoft acquisition is maybe the best thing that could have happened to advancing its integration with the other office tools that I use. I’m very happy with it as a consumer (it’s free, but I pay for office)
Not to be cynical but, what makes you assume it ever improved? I kinda assume it has just been getting worse and worse.

I'm somewhat young still, so I don't have a large personal memory of the times before The Web.
However, they need more than 60 miles (!) of range and their batteries mean they're more comparable weight-wise with a normal gas-powered compact sedan (they're roughly 400 pounds heavier than other cars of their class).

And that range is measured when they're new- battery degradation is much more significant when your range barely covers your commute; add cold weather taking off another 20% of that range and now you can't make it to work and back without needing to stop at a charger.

Battery energy density just isn't enough in this application for it to make sense for this type of vehicle.
> their dubious "hack chip" story

It shocks me that people believe manufacturer denials on this particular issue but still claim to be immune to commercial propaganda.

It's unlikely there will ever be undeniable proof available to the general public one way or the other on this. But the story was well sourced, was definitely technical credible and the parts that could be checked all checked out. Literally the only thing against it was manufacturer statements saying "nah".

But follow up articles have expanded that, and are starting to name people who say they have seen evidence now: https://www.theregister.com/2021/02/12/supermicro_bloomberg_...

In particular, check out page 71 of [1], where a former US Marine testifies under oath in a federal case about a similar things happening with Lenovo laptops in 2008 in Iraq. Quote:

A large amount of Lenovo laptops were sold to the
US military that had a chip encrypted on the motherboard that
would record all the data that was being inputted into that
laptop and send it back to China.

As an aside it is ridiculous that a search for an exact app name gives the top result to a sponsored competitor. Searching “tiktok” the first result is Twitter! Does anyone decide to install Twitter because they see that? Is the revenue really worth over half of the above the fold results page?

Fair enough let companies pay for the first result for generic terms but it just seems silly.
"I could definitely see myself accidentally hitting a pedestrian and not even noticing it."

Is this more hyperbole? I don't know how you could not notice hitting someone. You should feel/hear it, even for animals or objects way smaller than a person.

"I would say yes, you need to see things immediately in front of you. I’m not sure how that’s even a question."

How do you handle the normal blind spots in all cars? You handle this the same way - mental object tracking and awareness. It doesn't matter what car you're in, you can't see the pavement immediately in front of the tires, yet you can still avoid potholes.

Ask HN: How do you scale down/shrink your company and infrastructure?
Most we hear about is how to deal with growth.
How to scale. Hire at scale. Handle 100.000 of new users every hour.

What about the opposite?

You are losing 10.000 of users a day.

You far too much infrastructure (in cloud or not).
A code base that relies on a complex and now highly over complicated code base.

For the sake of argument lets say you lose 80% of your customers,
but thankfully there business to be done with 20% and it would be profitable enough
but to get there you have to scale down.

From a utopian point of view, everything is created just perfect, and you just
adjust a couple of parameters in how many web servers, app servers, what not
and keep running the same.

From some of the porjects I have been part of during unexpected violent growth
is that you sacrifice a lot to scale up fast, and never have I heard a anyone
mention

"Hey, make sure that we can gracefully lose most of our users and traffic as you built to handle out growth".

Takes a lot of engineers usuually, often too many to do the crash scale up.
(or a few who sleep not for far too long and make dumb decisions during it)

Any real life stories about drastically shrinking, but still finding a profitable
business and how to deal with a sudden shrink engineering?
It does however lead to a lot more tampering with odometers.

In New Zealand diesel vehicles pay a significant tax per kilometre, and so there are a lot of people disconnecting odometers. There are even people for who their only income is from "rewinding" or reprogramming electronic odo readings (using a variety of techniques, sometimes cracking ECUs etcetera). There is some incentive to reduce recorded milage to enhance resale value, but a lot more incentive to reduce taxes. Edit: I could be a victim of selection bias here because most people will happily admit to ripping off the government while fewer people will admit to ripping of other individuals.

Large commercial vehicles have government mandated secondary odometers, which I haven't heard as much about tampering: maybe because tampering happens less, or maybe because the penalties are higher, or maybe it happens but I am not in the loop. Also the likelyhood of getting caught tampering truck odos is higher because trucks are stopped far more often than cars, and trucks are checked far more carefully.
Maybe, but you can't have it both ways. If science is just another political theory, set up to propagate the social values of the scientific community, then it's perfectly legitimate for someone to reject science if they don't think their values or interests align with those of the average researcher. That is not, I think, a conclusion that you or the original commenter would endorse.
Yes, but at the same time demonstrates the code clearly so you could implement it yourself. I'd say this is code sharing aiming at zero reuse.
I honestly believe that's not Apple's place. Apple is a technology company, not a non-profit founded to help find missing or abused children.

NCMEC has a pretty good and non-controversial reputation and you really only heard about it if you were working in that kind of law enforcement field. Or you knew of the database if you were personally working on tech for filtering and managing submission of photo/video from the public, like facebook image uploads and had to manage submitting reports of found CSAM. I personally only knew of the amber alerts, which are national broadcast messages that show up on my phone informing of cases of serious abduction incidents.

I think for people informed about tech, the most unpopular thing about NCMEC is their stance on promoting a backdoor in all E2E encryption to ensure CSAM is flagged. [1] But even that, you understand where they're coming from even if you believe that backdoors are a bad idea. The NCMEC is a government funded non-profit for the explicit purpose of finding missing and exploited children.

It's just not Apple's place unless it will also have a department for the explicit purpose of finding missing and exploited children. And at that point it's a branch of NCMEC working in Apple.

Child protective services isn't NCMEC. And NCMEC isn't law enforcement, the organization works with law enforcement and doesn't directly go after anyone.

I have never heard of people that have gotten into serious trouble because of overeager employees. I wasn't able to find it via google either, I would love to get more information if you have a link.

I have heard of three letter government agencies allegedly planting CSAM on targets they want to get leverage on. But whether actual CSAM is planted or they lie in order to get probable cause to do searches and intimidate, I'm not sure.

This article from 2019 outlines an instance where law enforcement accused someone of handling CSAM based on filenames and an IP address, but weren't able to find the file after doing an actual search on the device. [2] They ended up dropping the case instead of letting the lawyers examine the method used tag alleged predators. They actually dropped cases instead of disclosing how the software worked multiple times for the sake of protecting how the software works, and arguably let alleged predators walk free.

But all of that is separate from NCMEC which just handles a cyber tipline and follows up on reports from tech companies about any potential CSAM and is in charge of handling the database of known positives in the US.

Apple has stated they will require the database to be cross-checked across different countries and jurisdictions in order to ensure no one can add false matches. So they don't want to identify CSAM for just the US, they want it to be a global program even if they are just rolling it out in the US.

I walk to think, very frequently. I talk to myself sometimes too, which can get weird if you get comfortable with it, as you'll sometimes do it in the presence of strangers and look crazy.

You are making this out to be more complicated than it is. A gift is a gift. A device "assigned" to someone by an administrator (e.g. a work laptop) isn't a gift. The gift of a device with administrative strings attached is just that.

Furthermore, by law the parent still effectively owns anything "given" to a pre-teen child. If the parent wants to take the device away from them and sell it, they're well within their rights to do so.
It's surprising that as late as 1964 Tom Hayden was still willing to believe a story as hopeful as this one, and I think some of that optimism was because of his race (he was white), because as early as 1962 he'd already heard Ralph Abernathy (the right-hand man of Martin Luther King) give his speech about "The civil rights movement is in a race with the farm tractors."

Abernathy's view was grim: legal discrimination had left more than a third of African American's working in agriculture, but the automation of agriculture was wiping out those jobs. Abernathy thought it was crucial that the civil rights movement open up the rest of the economy for African Americans, before they lost all their old jobs on the farm.

Tom Hayden mentions this in his memoir, though he admits "At the time, I had no idea what Abernathy was talking about."

But the African Americans seemed to have had the clearest and most accurate picture of what was about to happen: millions of jobs would disappear, and vast ghettos would appear in the cities, full of African Americans who had no work, either because of the loss of textile jobs in the city or because of people losing their jobs on the farm and then moving to the cities.
No. It's probably intended satirically, but in practice it's a null statement since there's no grant of anything nor an exchange of value. It's equivalent to the default of "All rights reserved". This includes any fair use rights you might have, however, and any rights due to Github's ToS, so you can likely review and discuss the code, and quote from it, but if incorporated into a product or service then it's actionable; the author has the option of asserting their rights.

There's no assertion that the method is patented so you'd probably be free to also use the technique, as long as you don't reuse or incorporate the original work. If your code consequently looks like the author's then that's usually fine too, c.f. NEC v. Intel (1989), although actually relying on this precedent is a question balancing your access to legal resources vs how much the author really gives a shit.
If it's a visibility issue, then this really has nothing to do specifically with larger vehicles. Many small cars have less visibility than older ones due to smaller windows, larger pillars, and even lower perspectives. Take the newer mustangs, camaros, etc.

Thanks for pointing out the Cutter Incident ... an example of how, at the start, some stumbles - including deaths - are inevitable. (Wyeth too had 'excess deaths'.)

'All five companies that produced the Salk vaccine in 1955—Eli Lilly, Parke-Davis, Wyeth, Pitman-Moore, and Cutter—had difficulty completely inactivating the polio virus."

[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cutter_Laboratories#Cutter_inc...]
[https://archive.org/details/cutterincidentho00offi/page/100]

In the long run, the polio vaccines were unquestionably effective. In the US: 58,000 cases in 1952; 5600 cases in 1957. Salk led to Sabin - who did his trial tests in the USSR and Mexico (ethical?) - and by 1964 there were 124 US cases.

[http://www.eds-resources.com/poliotimeline.htm]

What stinks much more to me is consensus-building by people seeking a political advantage. The result has been many more deaths than 70 years ago.
Basic IR shielding is not actually that complicated, you just need an opening to mix cold air with the exhaust as seen on the new H-60 derivatives.

Do people not realise that this software is already in place across many other major tech companies and has been for years. Not that it makes it okay, but many of the negative impacts people think will come from it haven't occurred (that we have seen).

Is it? My wife was studying in a lab (real science, not social science) and there were only a handful of labs in the world working on the problem. One of the labs had a key paper that no one could ever replicate and it was widely understood to be fraud. The drama was even written up in one of the blogs focused on these issues. The PI to this day claims it’s all true and nothing was faked, still respected in their field. Every grad student working on that protein knows that result and the subsequent papers published by the same lab based on that result are complete lies.
