Interesting. I’m not from Australia but I thought the concept of an Administrative Appeals Tribunal interesting. It seems like a way to offload work from the main court system. According to Wikipedia it also does seem to have oversight by the Federal Court of Australia. [1]

While I agree that this seems like a massive overstep. The actual body seems similar to the FISA court in the US. There wasn’t any detail in the article but I would hope there is a massive audit trail on the ability to modify data or impersonate someone online.

Anyone have any additional details on the AAT’s effect on the average Australian citizen?

>Getting approval for $250/mo is actually a harder sell in many companies than getting a one-time approval for $25,000.

This.

I actually see a much greater multiple where customers still prefer to make a CapEx vs OpEx. The low cost of capital is a likely contributor.
Agree. This is going to be huge for indie game developers, especially Unity and Unreal.

Couldn't come at a better time, with App Stores being front and center with their monopolistic practices that force developers to pay a 30% tax. Shameless plug, my startup is actually working on tooling to allow Unreal Engine 4 developers to ship and host their games in HTML5 using WebAssembly, with an asset streaming system and advanced texture compression. Our mission is to free indies from the shackles of walled gardens by giving them the resources they need to deploy on the web, on their own terms. We provide this as a SDK and hosting platform as an all-in-one solution. We're futureproofing it with WebGPU support for Unreal Engine 5, and are even working on WebXR support as part of our roadmap.

If anyone is interested, here's a link to our Discord where you can get request early access to our tooling and platform:

They do? I was under the impression that TPM was specifically designed to be able to be re-keyed, with the only permanent keys being "endorsement keys" used to verify the TPM's origin and identity (e.g. that someone didn't sneak in and steal your TPM or replace it with an attacker-controlled facsimile).
From my experience: Yes, they may jeopardize it.

If docker and containerization is not yet widely used in the company, a lot of decisionmakers will not buy it, because they did fine without it for decades ;)
Suffering is also a weird thing. If we were able to ask our distant ancestors whether they were suffering, they would probably give us a blank stare. Perhaps in not all cases, but much of what humans normally had to go through is what a modern human would consider suffering. That's not to say they didn't suffer by our standard, but perhaps they didn't see it that way. Someday future humans may wonder how we made it through all the "suffering" we go through now because of the consequences of technology, but with our frame of reference this is the best of times. It's hard to imagine how our ancestors were able to deal with their turmoil, but that viewpoint only makes sense from a modern one.
Reading the article had me wondering about these people who devise these things.
‘This conclusion was supported by a study in which rats opened a door and freed a distressed, soaked cage mate from a water tank. Moreover, rats did not open the door for soaked cage mates that were not in distress.’

They clearly tormented at least a few animals.
Market place are also offensiivin first come first served businesses so scaling fast is crucial and it extreme hard when you dont want funding.

What's an example of this (assuming you don't care about binary size)?
It matters to this one.
That's configurable. Sessions can be permanent, can be deleted as soon as they're closed, or a set period of time after last use.
As a poor person, 100% of money goes back in to the market, not an investment/retirement account, because rent and food are a bit of a priority.
Looks great, but my video conferencing setup is on Mac. If there is something similar for MacOS?
poor impulse control

This can be due to an old head injury. Head injury syndrome is a thing and one study found that upwards of 90 percent of people on Death Row had a history of head injury so severe that you could find evidence of it with an x-ray machine if there were no medical records.

In other words the skull still bore the scars. So it went well beyond just a concussion.
Well, "tech" is short for "high technology", which typically means the bleeding edge. I'm certain that parts of modern shoe manufacturing are very novel, especially around materials science, but is its bleeding-edge-ness its defining characteristic, like it has been for eg computing?

Because from where I'm sitting, it looks like they're making sneakers only very slightly differently than Nike has been for many decades, using a different foam resin supplier that claims to make it out of sugarcane feedstock rather than petroleum, and some nice claims of using recycled bottles for laces to make it so that their customers can feel a little better about buying fairly disposable shoes made from polymer foam.
The reason is because this is not in fact a substitute for the clock sync service (whether that's PTP, or something that's becoming popular like Chrony).

It's complementary, a clock fault failure detector. We're not trying to synchronize clocks, merely to detect when too many clocks in the cluster no longer agree.

TigerBeetle needs to detect when the network is partitioned in a way such that the clock sync service (PTP or NTP etc.) is not functioning while the TigerBeetle cluster still has a functioning majority on the other side of the partition.

No matter the clock sync service you use, you still need some way to verify that the clock sync is in fact happening, which is what this is.

Hope that clarifies it for you!
I'm a bit puzzled what costs and what not, as it is a first time I see "Docker Desktop" name.

I use docker on linux, mainly executing "docker build", "docker run", etc.

Does it still cost if I do it in a 1k+ company during work?

> requires some juggling of licenses with associated turn-around times

This! I've always said that a bit reason for FLOSS to win over the internet server-side is because scaling fast and juggling livenses is just too hard. Especially with the prying eyes of Oracle/MSFT/etc's powerful legal teams and hidden "phone home" code.

Going with a LAMP stack was just to simplest way to keep moving at speed.
After watching for a while I noticed that basically the author of this article is not really a journalist, but actually a person working in concert with apple employees to establish a union.

The articles are written with a clear lack of fairmindedness or any attempt at objectivity.
he, well said. It's basically the bike shed effect: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Law_of_triviality
I think of it like chemo: sometimes you have to use poison to achieve a goal. Apparently this summer they declared victory over the ants.
Consider that the only power a judge has is to say things, and write things. The legal system only works if enough people respect it and do things just because the judge said to do the thing. Our society only works if the legal system keeps working.

Insisting that people respect the court is a large part of why this works. Even if maybe in some particular instance you could get away with not insisting on that, that's a dangerous experiment to run.
I was doing some pair programming with a colleague not too long ago, and after several minutes he was said something to the effect of "Could you close that [expletive] dialogue?" that had popped up to tell me that VS Code couldn't deal with some file extension or other. It had apparently been there the entire time.

I hadn't even noticed it (at least not consciously). I've apparently been trained somewhere to ignore dialogues, and I would hazard a guess that it has something to do with the prevalence of hostile UX patterns.
You can do meaningful reviews of folders others have prepared for you, others that get paid pennies compared to what you would pay locally.

> The difference here is that there are professional associations with both the ability to discipline people who don't follow the rules, and a deep interest in doing so.

If I understand correctly, then indeed yes, it would be hard to disrupt this space. But I have a feeling someone smarter than me, perhaps even yourself, will find a way to go around it. At one point taxi medallions seemed unmovable.
With bad hardware your modulation won't be good enough, you will leak into other bands.
Nah, your black-and-white characterization doesn't describe reality very well. Point is, when folks bring competition decks to play with casual players, the result is not fun for the casual players.
Wait, so you're running your app on virtualized Linux inside Docker inside Linux inside Virtualbox inside native MacOS?
There's a really great section in The Path to Power about how women in the Hill Country used to iron before electricity. They'd heat these massive irons (that they called sad irons) in the stove. The process was extremely finicky between the ash, the inevitable burns, and the unforgiving heat of the fire. Really goes to show how much washing machines and electric irons have done for quality of life.
Docker Desktop installs dockerd in a WSL2 instance these days instead of using VirtualBox so I'd assume it works pretty well now.
"Large" is a bit of an interesting statement. Companies with $10m in revenue are very common, and are often smaller companies. Software is all about leverage. A very small team can create a lot of leverage with the right tools to make a very strong product and get to $10m ARR without necessarily having many people.

It seems like the real cost to this change is the goodwill from smaller companies + teams that are now realizing they'll have another expense dropped on them. Except the expense is a previously free product with no real improvements, at least from what I can tell.
Voting is how this mess started... how is voting harder going to fix what voting created? Nothing short of a common national ethos of trust in an almost unremovable leader can solve this problem. A leader who can listen to experts and make a choice, even if unpopular, without fear of next election and without the need to aggrandize more power and wealth.
One other big factor: certain other vendors have very aggressive sales tactics which essentially boil down to “buy a bunch of stuff you don’t need or we’ll audit every computer in your company and charge a penalty for anything we can find to quibble with”.

Docker doesn’t need to actually do that to run afoul of policies based on the scar tissue from those other vendors. Simply going from “you can use it without being sued” to “we have to pay people to make sure we’ll win” will increase the perceived cost at many large shops.

The quoted tweet is... kind of stupid.

I assume the op must just be a fan of this particularly person and thinks its related. It basically is an inside joke.

Authoritaranism is a special kind of dumbness historically associated with really smart people.
To be clear, there are unspoken concussion issues with many sports. It was only recently that soccer began to take concussions seriously from headers by banning them from some youth leagues.

That said, I would also never allow my children to play gridiron football. Even if concussions weren't a thing, people leave that sports with lifelong injuries.
a use case, finally!
>Many ideas which are uncontroversial within their respective scientific fields today were, in fact, very controversial in decades or centuries past: relativity, quantum physics, plate tectonics, evolution, heliocentrism

All of those examples provided a productive framework for future research, and after the research was done were supported by convincing evidence. They wouldn't be considered "controversial" in a modern field, people would just rightly be skeptical until the research bore fruit.
The first symptom of many diseases is denial.
It seems really stupid as they will lose those customers and some will refuse to come back on principal based on being treated like chattel by Apple.
This reminds me of the genius of AWS. The engineering team can just buy whatever they want, no questions asked.
I don't know why it's not more of a mainstream opinion to try to make these sports as unpopular as possible or to straight up make them illegal to play in how ever many official settings as you can manage, including highschools at the very least.

It's very fucking bad, everyone knows this. I don't know how long it will take for people to get it.
The article says there are no changes to the command line tool. This is the first time I'm hearing of Docker Desktop as well.
Well, my guess is you're trying to defend "occasional physical punishment on rare occasions, such as when a child has done something life-endangering." What this specifically reveals is some level of naïve obliviousness to the extant patterns of violence, both physical and emotional, which abusive parents apply to their kids in practice, and the emotional harms that many children will suffer under such disciplinary regime.
Honest question: Besides IT endpoint management, why does our industry continue to develop software that is leaning more and more towards containerization on Mac OS?

I’ve been a Mac user for 20 years and do a lot of docker and Kubernetes work. I recently started developing on a Linux machine that was a fourth of the price and a lot less burden for my day-to-day work.
these are all great points; what can be draw from this - and still consider a path of private settling before taking it publicly?

More awareness and resources provided to the victim? There can be a 3rd party org, a private arbitration that is sworn to privacy that can guide the victim so that he does not suffer from the above weaknesses?

Knowing that the issue is being watched even though privately should cause the more powerful person from abusing the situation?
Would love to offer NFTs of works that are both authored and offered on iOS/Android. Would this be a first step? I don't know how to do it otherwise.
Alright! I’ll see about cleaning it all up. Might take some time. If your Twitter in your profile is active I can let you know there when I’ve got it posted.
Ha! Didn't occur to me to search the archaic name on Wikipedia, but in hindsight, of course that works.
Not the problem anymore for the brains that fled.
If the police have a warrant to watch you, then, no. But that is as it should be. As long as there is correct judicial oversight of these capabilities, then this is the correct way for things to be. Nobody should have an expectation of being able to conduct criminal business without surveillance.

The issue comes in when the justice system is not providing correct oversight for this capability. That is wrong and should be vigorously opposed. The capabilities themselves I have no problem with.
You cannot develop an app for iOS without using Apple's libraries.
To be honest, I'm not seeing any problems - there are people who want stay remote, and people who want to go back to offices. Companies likewise vary in their desires. We'll all just switch to a new employer if the particular company we work for today doesn't land on the answer we prefer.
Show HN: CLI for authentication into AWS right from your terminal (supports MFA)
It's open source. It's for the purpose of using it for whatever we want to use it for. People decide this, not some ivory tower of objectivity that doesn't exist anywhere except in the minds of purists.

And it serves excellently as a framework for the desktop apps that use it. And that's why it's eating the market for purely native desktop apps.

Oh and Microsoft bought and uses the whole kit because they want to add to Chrome's hegemony right?

The small loud minority of HN complainers here should let them know that they're doing it all wrong. It's a whole 5 million lines of open source code - there's no way any other company but Google can maintain that! Brave doesn't exist either apparently.
This is a very un-HN-like comment, but...

In 2014, I was working at Homejoy (RIP), and started hanging out w/ this guy I sorta knew from college. We were reintroduced at Mission Cliffs, started climbing together ~5-6x a week, and talked a lot about startups since I was a newcomer who was just learning about the space. Oliver co-founded an analytics company (Sensor Tower) and eventually invited me over to visit their office which they were sharing w/ another analytics company started by two guys from college that I also kinda knew: Spenser and Curtis.

They were sharing an office in the same building as Dropbox (ooo fancy) and each had one, mayyybe two employees. At the time, they were both still figuring out how to increase their self-serve revenue in hopes of eventually selling to businesses. (Hilariously, I remember thinking how boring B2B SaaS businesses were compared to... on-demand home cleaning startups??!? Oh how young and naive I was back then, haha)

Anyway, fast forward seven years… Oliver and I got married, had a baby, and now Spenser and Curtis' “baby,” Amplitude, is all grown up! [insert crying emoji]

I cannot overstate how proud I am of them and happy for the success of Amplitude. Spenser is one of the hardest working and most down-to-earth CEOs I know, too, so this monumental milestone is beyond deserved. What’s more, Amplitude is one of my customers on Key Values, and I am also a very satisfied Amplitude user myself. I mean, these are the SV stories we all dream of (using each other’s products, being each other’s customers, and building a company that goes public!) and they're coming true, y'all!

The biggest congrats to Spenser, Curtis, and the rest of the Amplitude team! YOU DID IT!
Do you think that all courtroom rules of decorum are wasteful or just Zoom screen names? Like, if someone showed up to an in-person hearing wearing assless chaps and a beer straw hat, would that be fine?

I'm not big on formality in general but I think that there are times when it makes sense to expect people to present themselves with a basic level of respect.
You would be correct. On page 18, 2019 revenue was 193M and 2020 was 219M, growth of only 13%.
It's from a French collective.

It's interesting how it's fashionable in Europe to bash on "foreign evil tech giants" and every politician tries to fleece them with some fees. I guess it's easier than bootstrapping a homegrown ecosystem of highly successful companies.

Ironically, European new grads have no issues coming to SV to innovate...
Vaccination numbers still have a lot of room to grow, the virus may mutate into something that has a lower kill rate, the vaccine efficacy will likely improve, etc...

What situation, being trapped? I'm not sure what size has to do with it. Are small corporations maybe more ... agile?
I used fuse/sshfs quite a lot in the past, and never had much issues (I think most of my issues were with how my editor displayed and refreshed the file list, not with the actual sshfs implementation, and were similar to those on Linux/Windows.)
At that point, who cares? You live somewhere else, not your problem. That's sorta the whole point of leaving a country for political reasons, you feel it's unfixable and not worth hanging around. It's defeatist and doesn't help the people still in Australia, but it's a valid value judgement.
I've put some links in a comment below to help with pitch and interval training.
Hyperkit is docker for mac's backend though, so... whatever bugs that upset people are probably still present.
21$/month/user is nothing for the business setting.
That’s not an issue though. That’s just how virtual machines work. You’re carving out a chunk of your system for the docker Linux VM that runs your containers.

You can open up the docker app and configure a smaller amount of ram if it impacts your host OS
okay, that's a good counterexample. I wouldn't expect you to be able to have a good relationship with someone who doesn't agree you should exist and/or your gender identity is real.

but take gun control for example, which seems to be pretty high on the list. does it really matter whether a potential partner is for/against gun control? one person's opinion is not going to change the law of the land. I'd think it would only matter whether you could come to an agreement on whether there would be guns in the home you share.
I don't think it's easy either. There are smart people everywhere in the world. If these people could be easily paid and could get their results validated by a local expert, there would be a lot of financial incentive for these smart people to learn the US law, for example, and create case files for the local experts to evaluate and sign on.

Would it cut the need for the local experts? No. Would it reduce their numbers? Maybe, it could also diversify them. Would it lower the cost for the service? I also think so.
I've found it to be really good on Windows 10 Pro, even with 6 year old hardware.

I've been using it full time since 2018 and it's been nothing but really fast and as stable as you can ask for given how complex of a tool it is. It rarely crashes (maybe once every few months) and I've built thousands of images across many different tech stacks.
Does that change the facts? Apple banned a channel discussing pay equity, giving the reason that Slack 'must advance the work, deliverables, or mission of Apple departments and teams', which is clearly being selectively enforced.

Ask HN: Would you use DeFi if you didn't have to use pub/priv keys?
I'm currently working on a project to streamline the process for getting non-crypto users access to defi interest rates on their cash.

I know HN isn't really my target market, given everyone here is tech savvy and could manager their own keys (not to mention HN isn't exactly pro-crypto). But, if any of your non-technical friends would be interested, feel free to forward this on to them. I'm also receptive to feedback on the idea itself.

Internal pressure is a fair concern, but is not a foregone conclusion. If anything, unfair approvals of Apple-developed apps would enrage the developer community and shine even more light on the issue.
Yes, you will be able to survive, for sure. Some studies (2017, https://sicnoticias.pt/economia/2017-07-04-Que-rendimento-e-...

Which is why being free of charge isn't really the point of free software.

Good luck with that. I strongly object to DoH, but it exists and we have to deal with it.

The only approach that I could come up with to do so was to install a proxy to MITM all HTTPS connections to allow me to filter out DoH requests.
How about the fact that not all, or even most, dev machines run Linux, which is the only platform podman supports?

This is a good point that I missed in the article. I was thinking that the reduction in crime occurred over a relatively long period of time, say a couple of years. I see now it was little over a month. Frankly that is not enough time for what I laid out, or enough time with ideas of under-reporting because everyone knows the police won't do anything because of their slow down.

So I am not sure what it is.
