To be clear, I am not representing 10X Management in these comments, except as a satisfied client (I have been with 10X since 2013).

10X has a portal for clients (like me) to maintain our profiles. We have a Slack and a mailing list. Most of my contact with them is through my agent, who will tell me about projects that I might have an interest in.

Toptal is more like a traditional outsourcing agency, 10X is modeled on talent agencies.

I have not worked for Toptal, I know some people who do. Anecdotally Toptal charges their customers approximately double the rate they pay their freelancers, though that varies. I understand their freelancers are under NDA not to reveal what Toptal pays them. I have heard a few complaints from freelancers that Toptal pays low rates and varies what they pay by geography. To be fair I have also talked to freelancers who are very happy working through Toptal.

10X Management takes a percentage of gross billings and pays the rest to me. I don't want to get into numbers but I can say 10X takes a lot less than 50%. They aren't charging customers double what they pay me, in other words. You can Google for comments on the 10X percentage, it's consistent with what agents get in the entertainment and music industries. As I mentioned 10X has consistently negotiated higher rates than I was getting on my own, even with their percentage. As a solo freelancer without much presence or PR/marketing the credibility and marketing and professional agents are worth something to me. The 10X founders are frequently on Bloomberg News, for example. Just not having to deal with invoices and collecting payment is worth something to me -- as a freelancer you want to make most of your work time billable.
This is an interesting subject. Most people would be pretty worried about a drunk 747 pilot, and want laws and policies to prevent that from happening. A high delivery driver -- better, but a lot of people still don't like that idea. But tired commuters on the road at 6:30am is acceptable.

Could be better informed by numbers here. But hard to say because there aren't reliable tests for "high right now", and maybe not for "tired" either.

When you can't find another one that allows colocation with a ToS that will let you do whatever you want, you rent a T1 line or better to your own home.

Have you ever heard of a ISP kicking someone off a rented dedicated cable? Maybe it has happened. I have no memory of ever hearing about this in any case where there wasn't prima facie illegal acitivit occuring over the line.
The hypothesis considered at the very end of the article is intriguing. Time is generally viewed as a smooth variable. But fundamental thermodynamic limits on clocks suggest that there are in fact discrete steps occurring which we smooth over since they are below our measurement capabilities in general. I'm not entirely sure what the implications would be, but it does sort of make sense that this is in fact true.

> I like AGPL because it increases the odds of improvements coming back to the upstream project, something into which I invest a lot of personal time.

A note: MPLv2 (HashiCorp's license of choice) also achieves that just as nicely if improvements not getting back into upstream is a concern. xGPLv3 is of course better at it, but through its virality (not a bad thing but something tech cos are averse to it).

Besides, as mentioned above, Zerodha needs to be careful with its use of listmonk. They are at risk of violation of AGPLv3 themselves if they are not careful, ie violation of the rights of all contributors to listmonk, and not just that of the original author. IANAL.

> is it because gravity and time are really just effectively the same thing?

Well gravity is the curvature of spacetime. So maybe not time exactly.

It seemed like the question that needed to be answered was does the inherit randomness of a clock tell us anything about spacetime itself? Or is it just telling use how well we can measure it?
Just started digging through the first chapter (I think?), which is linked to on the main page. This is so, so cool. What a fun and interesting idea.
The lack of opposition is a consequence of the concentration of traditional media in Australia. News Corp owns 70% of the print media and they will never strongly criticise the (right wing) Liberal party as long as that party does what Rupert Murdoch tells them to do. They will, however, relentlessly bash the Labor party, so that party has been playing the "small target" and never doing anything that would allow News Corp to criticise them.

A lot of the other media is owned by Fairfax-Nine, which again has ties to the Liberal party (e.g. Peter Costello) and similar remarks apply.

Right. Is this just a limit on our ability to measure, or a deeper truth about the nature of time? If QM is a guide then it might be a deeper truth.

I’m curious why Nextjs is needed. I’ve started just building dynamic websites rendered on the server serving the content I need search engines to be able to crawl and then I drop a js file on each page which instruments whatever components I want to use react for on top of the already rendered html page. It’s worked very well for me so far, I have webpack build one JS file for each page I want to instrument and then I write react just like I usually do. Maybe my use case is different from what Nextjs is built for.
Phoenix with Liveview is so good - not a solution to all the frontend problems but there's something about it that really feels magical.

I've recently also played around with adding AlpineJS to it and it solves some of the issues I was having with LV.
I agree wholeheartedly here. Server side rendering is incredibly difficult to do right, and while Next has some idioms that I find a bit unwieldy, they work well. It's also insanely customizable which I quite enjoy.
Please add instructions on how to build it. Looking forward to trying it out!

I don't know why you are being downvoted for your curiosity.

To answer your question - it's because the major source of revenue for browser makers is search engines. Google, Yahoo, Bing etc. pay browser maker money to bundle their search engine in the browser, and also share a small percentage of revenue with them. Search engines make money from advertising. So obviously they discourage browser makers from including ad blocking tech in browsers. (Look at the money involved - Google Said to Pay Apple $15 Billion to Remain Default Search Engine on Safari in 2021 - https://gadgets.ndtv.com/apps/news/google-apple-default-sear... ... and you can understand why it is so difficult to say no to it).
What about only letting in people in who have phones attesting to a unique id.

Don't let in people without a device and ban people who are caught stealing once. If they force the doors and come in call the cops and prosecute for felony burglary even if they were only originally banned for stealing socks originally.

Share bad lists and stealing socks means that you are suddenly banned from every store in 100 miles.

Make exceptions for curbside pickup and pre scheduled trips to the grocery store/pharmacy where you will pay for the security that will walk around with you.

Expire people off the list after 5 years of one theft or never after a string of thefts.

For the normal customer nothing happens your phone silently attests from your pocket that you aren't on the list by pinging a service and retrieving a token not sharing your info with the store.

TL;DR - apparently this was some form of "meme" app that let people say "good morning" to each other. They found out Wednesday morning (US Eastern time) that somebody had obtained unauthorized access to their user's data. They think the attacker obtained sensitive access credentials by decompiling the iOS app and pulling it out of there. As a result, they're realizing a small team not making any real money on an app that was intended to be a joke isn't capable of responsibly managing infrastructure and security, and are taking the understandable (IMHO, responsible) action of shutting it down.

But this begs the question: if indeed access credentials were obtained by decompiling the iOS app, that means said credentials were IN the app in some form to begin with. My next thought was, "well that's stupid, why are you putting access credentials for the infrastructure inside the app itself?" But that's just it - short of individual user accounts and storing credentials unique to only that user on the device, how else would you store credentials used to access a public resource inside an app? You could encrypt them with some kind of key pair, but even then you'd still have to distribute the decryption key along with the app so it could decrypt the data in memory, so that would only present just one more step to the attacker in this scenario.

It sounds like they did something stupid here, but I don't see how else they could have done this short of individualized user accounts. I don't know what good reason they'd otherwise have for storing global access credentials inside the app other than for accessing a public resource, but clearly they had SOME reason to do this. Assuming this wasn't a massive facepalm in the basic design of the app itself, how else could they have done this securely?

Clearly I'm missing something here. I'm not a mobile app developer so there are likely best practices for these situations I've just never heard of. But I just don't see a way to store "global" (not-unique) access credentials to a resource securely in a distributed app (assuming there's a good reason to do that of course) that wouldn't be vulnerable to this exact same attack vector.

What should they have done differently?

While decoding a given x86 instruction is serial, since about 2000 metadata has been added to the L1 instruction cache indicating which bytes start an instruction. So you can start decoding multiple instructions in parallel.

Doing the same might be useful on a very wide RISC-V decoder. Not needed for 3 or 4 wide though. This is not very expensive, needing only 1 bit per 16 bits of instruction cache data (6.25% overhead), as RISC-V instructions can only start on 2 byte boundaries. This is quite small compared to the 25% to 30% code size you typically save from using both 2 and 4 byte instructions (30% to 50% more instructions in a cache of fixed size).

x86 also uses cache of the micro-ops generated from each instruction, to avoid decoding recently-used instructions at all. That's completely unnecessary with simple instruction encodings such as RISC-V.

Yeah unfortunately the Linux experience is still highly dependent on how well your hardware is supported, and whether you’re going to stick to the happy path (so not much gaming, photo/video editing, or coding in .NET).

I’m squarely in the linux happy path (I bought a Thinkpad because they’re known for good linux support) and it’s amazing, far better than Windows. But that’s also because staying in the happy path is a conscious choice: I actively avoid the stupid kinds of tech pain that eat entire weekends. For all that stuff I keep a Windows box around, which I power up once a month or so.
Thanks. It's great to have input from someone who actually knows something!

Beyond what your valuable input, I will make the general observation - I have no personal knowledge of military IT security - that the keys are necessary but they are not nearly sufficient for effective security. Also, other high-priority assets have been compromised, such as a key nuclear warhead design.
I think “I’m a vegan” is important information when describing my philosophy with non-human life, and I was talking about my views on fungus.
Ah OK, I didn't follow because I strongly disagree that that's a low quality comment, even if it turned out to be wrong.
I have a weird language history, so let me chime in. I was born in Brazil to Japanese parents. My first language as a young child was japanese. As I entered school, portuguese became the predominant language in my life and both my parents decided to focus on that, speaking portuguese at home. Once I grew up, I went to college in Canada and have lived in North America ever since.

I have lost all fluency in Japanese. Japanese culture had always been a part of my life as a child, but despite my family (cousins, etc) growing up on misoshiru and jpop and anime, we all spoke portuguese, so Japanese-the-language never felt like "home".

These days, I also occasionally forget portuguese vocabulary. I do still "speak" with family, but mostly by text via WhatsApp, and conversations are usually pretty casual and don't involve nearly as much eloquence as, say, a good book. The vast majority of my life now revolves around english-speaking culture: my job is full of english technical jargon that I've no idea how to translate, english is the language I share w/ my wife, and it's the language I use to consume information and entertainment. English is now my "home", so to speak.

I think the author has a similar experience: she learned english in primary school and lived a primarily english-oriented life, so english became "home". The phenomenon of wanting to reconnect with one's roots later in life doesn't strike me as particularly unusual either. In retrospect, I did unintentionally distance myself from my own parents during my 20s (partly because that's sorta the whole point of becoming an independent adult and discovering new things) and only really started to regain that level of touch after having kids.

My point is: loss of language can have a lot to do with prioritizing things one feels are impactful in their lives (though those things may not necessarily be important - parents are certainly important, but it's the sort of thing that one can easily take for granted). Having had such a weird life experience wrt "first language", I'm keenly aware that the first-ness or even the familial aspect don't necessarily correlate with the cultural surface area that a person interfaces with the most. In some rare cases, your second - or third - language is what feels like home.
I agree with this sentiment. LinkedIn is completely vapid and full of all sorts of signaling with no effort, but there's sort of a corny charm to it. Like a compilation of office H.R. instructional videos. I'm sure that future decades' equivalent of vaporwave will incorporate LinkedIn imagery into their retrospectives of the '10s.

The data gathering that undergirds it is probably bad though, or at least when the site does things like make it impossible to opt-out of things or spams everyone in your contacts with invites.
There is nothing political in this instance. This violates their ToS, and even without that, this is a normal reaction to what most legal experts consider an activist legislature stunt that will not stand a real legal challenge. Even another Supreme Court justice called the decision to not issue a stay for this vigilante law "stunning", so let's not clutch pearls here.

I read both your links, and I saw literally nothing about "forcing" anyone off the streets. What I did see was a lot about peoples' right to shelter in NYC, which does not imply that someone couldn't freely choose to live on the streets. In other words, nobody needs to live on the streets, but it doesn't look like anyone's necessarily prohibited from doing so, either.

Am I missing something?

Maybe. I've only looked at Nix from a distance because I'm reluctant to learn a new language just to effectively manage applications, and I don't really want to have to create my own packages for things or build them from source. Also I'm pretty sure it still can't install applications to arbitrary disks and, as mentioned, it is worthless for closed source software.

If you ask me, it's an incredibly overengineered solution to a problem that is entirely self-inflicted. Still, it might eventually be preferable to Microsoft's current direction with Windows.
