Apple also uses a second, different perceptual hash that's intended to be kept secret, on server side.
no they're really not
That's oddly familiar... I frequently get: The server is slow. Well, no it's not really doing anything, but your applications is responding remarkably slowly.

Or: Can I get a bigger server... Yes, but you have 32 cores and 256GB of RAM, and your applications isn't that complex.
Still on the fence about this brand now. Privacy is the last thing I think about when I think apple.
I (academic background in physics, but visited only few courses in CS) got into it myself late in life. As an autodidact it's all too easy to miss some relevant background information. E.g. Perl's "local" variables made sense to me only after learning (much later) Common Lisp with its dynamic variables (partly because documentation around CL tends to be more thorough).
Well, you're right if there are explicit blockers.

In practice, it's more of in-betweens like "I can figure it out slowly" or "I didn't realize Jerry could help me just like that".

When people encounter obvious blockers or they have no clue they will ask for help, but not so much for those "in-between".

Another scenario that often happens to us is one task is being pretty much depended on, and if there's an "in-between" like I just said, it's likely to make the team run out of task for a while. People on the task may not be paying enough attention to each other's progress, leaving them in blind spots compared to the team lead. Stand-ups are great for spotting those problems and tackle them early.

I assume holding index and middle fingers up. With the German way of counting, usually the thumb would be up as well, meaning 3, so it's easily mistaken as a 3 despite only having two fingers up.
I guess it depends how you count a release. I think these fast moving teams spend more time in production debugging than the QA team adds. Shipping it should not be the final determination of release time.

I wish more companies valued QA teams, then maybe I wouldn't get so many notices of security breaches and need to keep checks on my credit.

I’m sorry but I don’t follow you. Isn’t it stupid easy to get plenty of high quality fonts licensed for free at somewhere like Google fonts. If you need something else specific shouldn’t the creators be entitled to license their work? Why should you be entitled to their works?
The font designer certainly isn't checking your analytics if you aren't. I assume that's the reason for the honor system.
Also Microsoft doesn't have anywhere near enough resources to rebuild three decades of Windows software and they have made it a strong point that they don't want to break compatibility with applications built 20/30 years ago. Even changing the sizes of controls by a single pixel to old controls can sometimes cause bugs and compatibility nightmares Microsoft can't test for nor easily fix.
This resonates with me more than the other comments. I’ve done a lot of self-directed work, and I’ve worked at web dev shops. In the latter, the only complaint I ever had about Jira was that it was slow. My PMs were my favorite people; they were like my “operator” while I was heads down (in the matrix). They helped deal with the big picture and talk to the client while I pushed through tickets. Jira was perfect for that because they owned it and I just showed up to click the buttons they had configured.

In all my self-directed work with small teams- you’re right, we just needed a task manager. The overhead of PM would have been a net negative. We basically just needed to track our own conversations with each other.
I think the north star regarding addiction are people like https://twitter.com/Twolfrecovery
who was addicted and is now sober and campaigning hard to stop the San Francisco/California co dependent state enabling of addiction with safe consumption sites, free needles and paraphenalia and no questions asked hotel rooms to live and die in.

The Sacklers products are now illegally mass produced, most of the bay area fentanyl is run by Honduran drug dealers who are allowed to operate openly due to relaxation of California laws and a'restorative justice' SF DA.

Add in stealing up to $950 a day with no legal consequence and we have a massive problem. The solution is to surely cut off the drugs at source. The Sacklers are wealthy scum but they have enabled a vast underworld of deeply evil people and our politicians are just not addressing this.
I don't think that's correct; see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28407881 for the argument in more detail.
They coupled the OS to cloud stuff so tightly they break together? That's so absolutely bonkers, even if it's a boiled frog situation, I'm speechless. I'll start dual booting Linux to get used to it because this is finally unacceptable.

I want to be clear I'm not advocating for this, but you can't? Why not? What's the time limit?
I'm still taking the risk of COVID-19 seriously, and it's the same with pretty much everyone that I know. The US is not out of this pandemic yet. In some ways I think this is the time to take it more seriously than ever before, considering the transmissibility of the delta variant, and who knows what will happen with these other variants. People are still dying. It is still a deadly virus. I get that people have pandemic fatigue, but I just don't think that this is the right time to let your guard down.
China’s new limit on video games is not a big deal for its gaming sector
> I think it seems crazy now, but that's because we know a lot more about the practical applications of malicious RNGs;

RNGs were understood to be the lynchpin of secure systems for decades, including long before 2007; and it was also widely assumed both now and then that they were one of the most common vectors for attack by the NSA.

Why RSA added Dual_EC_DRBG is easy to explain in dollars & cents: 1) RSA was literally paid to add it, and 2) most of RSA's revenue comes, directly or indirectly, through government contracts (e.g. FIPS compliance, etc).

As for why RSA insiders didn't speak up: there are mountains of scholarship explaining why people just keep their heads down. Even if you were absolutely convinced beyond a shadow of a doubt that Dual_EC_DRBG was a backdoor, intelligent people are very good at rationalizing things. Anybody who has worked at a large company, including RSA, understands that your day-to-day work and the company's business is as a practical matter <10% technical and >90% everything else (sales, profit seeking, integration, etc, etc). More importantly, if you're a company doing business in a space dominated by U.S. government requirements and processes, or even just patriotic, the NSA having a backdoor is hardly the worse thing in the world. There are amazing cryptographers in China. Even the ones who fancy themselves world citizens and above the fray of nationalism, how many do you think would stick their head out were they in a position to identify possible formal government attempts to manipulate technology?

Moreover, a backdoor doesn't necessarily mean insecure; it's not a categorical truth that any backdoor means broken security, that's just a rule of engineering thumb built on the experience that securely maintaining the keys to backdoors is supremely difficult, often more difficult than any other aspect. Nobody has yet come close to breaking Dual_EC_DRBG, AFAIU. From a purely technical perspective, Dual_EC_DRBG is still secure. The keys haven't leaked, and the algorithm remains as impenetrable as ever. At the end of the day, that's all the rationalization most people would ever need to keep their head down. The "security" of Dual_EC_DRBG is a socio-political debate, not a technical one.
Exactly. It all comes down to fentanyl and fentanyl derivatives. Moving opiates to the black market heavily incentivizes suppliers to substitute relatively safe traditional opiates for highly dangerous fentanyl concentrates. Because fentanyl can deliver so many more effective doses per unit of mass than traditional opiates, it's far cheaper on the supply side.

Think of it this way. Would you rather smuggle a shipping container filled with heroin or a briefcase filled with carfentanil? You keep wholesale supply as potent and concentrated as possible. Don't dilute until the very last point in the supply chain, at which point you try to pass it off as heroin. The problem is a trap house is not a pharmaceutical grade lab, and unless the product is homogenized perfectly some poor bastard gets an unbroken clump of carfentanil in his hotshot and dies.

The simple solution is to legalize heroin, and make sure the supply is regulated for purity and consistency.

Is this a UK thing? I think I’ve read this before on HN, “getting promoted from software engineer to manager is hard”.

It seems to be a cultural thing. In the US, the manager is not seen as “superior” necessarily and many people actively do not want to be promoted (and a bunch of kids pouring into the field every year) so getting a management position is not particularly hard, even if you’re under 30.
I wouldn't be surprised if the suits only look at the numbers once a month.

> One subscription for access to ALL the content is the way to beat piracy. Anything else is anti-consumer at this point.

So what do you do when an Amazon Prime membership is required to access most contemporary books?

Or when you have to get several different all-you-can-read memberships to access all the authors you like. Eg. first there was just Netflix, now there is Hulu, Disney+ and Paramount+ as well if you want to see The Handmaid's Tale, Stranger Things, Game of Thrones, Star Trek: whatever, The Expanse, Star Wars & Avengers movies (to name just a few of the most popular and culturally relevant shows and movie franchises).

Whether there is a monopoly or oligopoly doesn't make much difference to consumers, though it does make some difference to content creators.

To make a system like you describe palatable over the long term, you would have to add in structural separation (content owners can't also be distributors) and strictly limit the kind of exclusive licensing deals that are allowed (eg. require statutory licensing of some sort) so new publishers and distributors can't be prevented from entering the market.
I like the way CirclesUBI handles it. If you appreciate a craftsman's work you can "trust" them. Trust is a pact to value their UBI tokens as much as you value your own.

So you don't have be in the market for a font to support fontmakers (or anything else).
So, having roughly one third of the population wear the mask reduced symptomatic infection of roughly a dozen percent. Can one suppose that an almost fully compliant population would see a reduction of symptomatic infections of roughly one third - or am I missing something?

Can this study suggest that a compliant population should see roughly one third less infections?

Edit: for example, the study lasted, I understand, only a couple of months: so, will this timeframe be enough to suppose that the exponential effects can be taken into account, and that the reduction in the infections should be more than just tripled, if one supposed almost full compliance?
This sounds disingenuous. If you agree with it, wouldn't that mean you've seen sources of information you accept to lead you to agreeing? And then you could share those sources? This sounds like a "no offense intended, but" approach to misinformation.
It gets a lot less fun when there's a customer visible outage and you need to know why things are failing NOW because dollars are on the line.
Which it is totally worth it when the counterfactual would be a dumbass playing loud music every night. Is there another solution to this that doesn't require ultimately the use of force?
What do we need an incentive for? The world isn't exactly short of art and lot of people will keep doing it for fame and glory or for its own sake.

Fewer commercial incentives may improve what bubbles up as the incentive process is sometimes interfering badly with the discovery, or production, of the best stuff.
This article seems to be conflating sentience with consciousness. Much of that complex interaction with the external world they describe can still be achieved by humans while asleep, yet we all accept that while asleep we are not conscious. So there's more to consciousness than what they are describing in fungi.
how would you possibly prevent such a thing? even if Juniper subjected all potential employees to clearance-like screening - that's not foolproof either.

About 10 years ago I read a bunch of former roller bladers and skateboarders talking about the death of rollerblading in the 1990s.

It is much easier to do tricks on rollerblades, also it was viewed as a "gay" activity in a much more homophobic time in society. There was a picture of a rollerblader in a skating mag and they photoshopped pink makeup on his face and made his rollerblades purple.

Skaters started calling rollerblades "fruit boots" and that killed it for a lot of people who didn't want to associated with something seen as weak and "gay".
Many of these platforms aren't really interested in shifting the _full_ development to the browser (although they could), since that would destroy the business position they're trying to establish for themselves. JS was created to be able to run in the browser, and yet most JS developers insist on still writing or relying on metatooling that can't actually run in the browser, even if that tooling is already written in JS! It requires downloading and installing an SDK/runtime† like NodeJS, or relying on a service provider like GitPod to provide the analog (read: run the same tools, but on machines that they own and that you can communicate with via the browser viewport).

If folks were really committed to improving the developer experience, then instead of what we do now and instead of what services like GitPod and Codespaces propose that we do, development would work like this:

1. Download the project source tree

2. Open README.html

3. Drag and drop the project source _onto_ README.html, which doesn't contain half explanations about setting up the appropriate development environment, so much as it contains an exact description (i.e. in executable code) of the build process—for the benefit of the machine that will perform it (along with these three steps—for the benefit of the human/prospective contributor)

Innovation doesn't have to be done by the software pirates, merely nudge it along:

1. Circumventing anti software piracy measures and learning that performance is gained instead of lost when the DRM is bypassed. -1 for DRM, net gain for users.

2. Pushing for new features alongside the updated DRM, a net gain for users.

3. Finding holes in the initial DRM and plugging them. A net gain for developers/publishers.

It's a win/win any way one looks at it.
Very nice! And if they get paid an honest pay, they can even have a full belly and a roof over their head along with the work ethic an the pride in their accomplishments. And all of that without corporate-socialism.

I think the typical argument is that piracy makes things accessible to everyone, and the market as a whole benefits from that greater audience. Think of how many photographers got started with a pirated copy of Photoshop or reverse engineers with Ida.

I don't think there's a country wearing masks in Europe as much as Spain did (visited many times during the last 1.5 yrs) but it doesn't translate well with infection numbers compared to other EU countries that had lax or non existant rules regarding masks.
I myself and quite a few other parents of 0-2 are freaked out still, despite the statistical evidence. Seeing one pic of an intubated baby is some real heavy shit for us.

But vaccines for 0+ are on the way, possibly as early as EOY. At that point, with vaccines available for everyone, I see it going the way OP describes.

I have a lot of single friends who mask up for their own health and other's (we're around the age when our grandparents are getting quite frail) but otherwise are pretty much back to normal. I think things are going this way whether or not our leaders or Smartest Guys in the Room like it or not. Masking might stay; the way it's used in Asia - often one wears a mask only if they themselves are feeling cold symptoms. I'd love to see that continued here; nothing worse than some jackamo coughing and sneezing next to you for a full subway ride.
Study is worthless. They did not have the means or funds to properly census the body of people involved, they only took blood samples from consenting symptomatic people and they were highly preselective in choosing the regions they included to achieve the outcome they sought.
You could take a step towards hard reduction and reduce penalties for pure morphine. As in you get caught with a kilo of pure morphine go to jail for 6 months. Caught with a gram of fentanyl, 10 years in prison.
Distrust is different than "downright reject" and lumping the two together, painting it as a picture of "reasonable distrust," is being extremely favorable to those who simply have stopped engaging. Nobody who disagrees with them (that Covid is real, that masks have value, that the vaccine is worth getting...) is trustworthy by definition. That's not "distrust," that's not something that can be addressed simply by "oh I talked to some more people and now I believe that this isn't a case of the system abusing us."

Rejecting the vaccine because you don't even understand it's described mechanism and so you fall victim to nonsense claims about "viral shedding" or "gene editing" is not being skeptical, it's being gullible.
The difference is, they promised not to look at personal files. If you are using their devices you trust their promises. Now, they broke their promise and a lot of people are loosing the trust.
Higher CO2 vs cancerous tobacco smoke and particulate matter...potato/cancer, what's the diff.
Audio over IP solutions. Having all your workstations synchronized within a few samples makes it possible to greatly reduce I/O buffer size and thus latency.
The problem with this mask business is it treats masks as the only variable. The United States is incredibly unhealthy and most people do not get enough exercise or spend enough time outdoors. It would not surprise me if governments would obtain better results by telling citizens to exercise regularly and eat healthy. Instead it seems like governments are doubling down on a strategy on scaring/bullying out of shape citizens into staying at home afraid.

The most rediculous policy of all is governments requiring masks for outdoor exercise.

Agree. Better safe than sorry. If you don't have a minimum experience in mycology don't do culinary experiments.
Things I wish everyone knew and acted on:

1. Masks reduce spread (this study)

2. Covid-19 is an airborne disease and primarily spread through aerosols

3. Being in a poorly ventilated space (even if everyone is masked) with an infected person means a significant chance of being infected.

4. While (1) is true for even meh-masks, to prevent infection in (3), you need to be wearing a tight-fitting high quality mask. No beards, no cloth, no surgical. N-95 or better with total seal.
I personally can't bend my pinkie without bending the ring finger, not the middle finger.
Its really just because of supply and demand. We made it illegal to add more supply. Los Angeles up until the 1960s was zoned for 10 million people with a population under 3 million, you were allowed to develop your single family home into a 25 foot wide 5 story brick apartment building and many of these went up in neighborhoods like hollywood and koreatown.

Today homes are out of reach for middle class because we have a population of 3.9 million in los angeles, but have a zoning capacity of only 4.2 million. It's not exactly rocket science how to fix this mess. Legalize building housing and housing will appear to satiate demand.
