There’s a few gaps in this explanation that my deductive completionist brain is looking for.

Namely, I’m wondering what kind of thing is even capable of being a monoid and an endofunctor at the same time. Mathematically, a monoid is a set (or collection to be more general) closed under a binary operator (the monoidal product) and with a distinguished identity element. An endofunctor is a mapping from a category to itself, which entails a mapping of each object as well as a mapping of each morphism. So I’m not even sure how to parse the phrase “monoid in the category of endofunctors” because the data required to describe these two things seems completely different.
The scenarios are in fact very similar. Perhaps you should learn about the antivaxxers of yore.

If you have a database of known-compromised hosts (because a fingerprint scan of them shows something clearly identifiable as part of a botnet, which I think is usually rare [but possibly not for Mēris]), it can mitigate an attack if you've already blocked them.

But the problem that still exists is the initialization traffic -- there are still up to 200k hosts that may hit your site (essentially, a syn flood). Depending on your infrastructure, that can still hurt your firewall or single server. But it is unlikely to hurt as much as having to actually respond (through a request stack) to those requests.

Recent, I saw on twitter some people are selling this kind of service at very high price to first time founder.

I got pissed because most first time founder need this tool but can't afford it. these agency are using free API and automation tools to earn huge money. I think this should be free at least for founders.

> I think you're more likely to freeze to death, because temperature in space is near zero Kelvin.

We're talking about a civilization on board an interstellar ship that had to leave their home planet because they were consuming so much energy that the resulting waste heat ended up making the oceans boil. So the assumption that they'll keep on consuming lots of energy (and producing lots of waste heat) on board such a ship sounds rather reasonable to me.

> Inside the solar system however, you could reflect away the received radiation (and heat) using mirrors.

The discussion is about getting rid of heat produced on board the space ship, not heat that's received from elsewhere.
> In the 2020 primaries and election, he wasn't taken seriously by either dems or reps

He was one of two Democratic candidates that had significant right wing support. As far as Dem's not taking him seriously, a big part of that is because he had no political experience and America's experiment in electing someone like that was an ongoing dumpster fire.
I could be wrong, but I don’t think you’re really giving it a good faith effort to look at this from the eyes of China.

Imagine it in your head: the senior intelligence officer walks into the briefing room and says “The United States has placed their nuclear missiles in Taiwan, but don’t worry - that’s exactly the same as Russia having missiles, or India having done some nuclear tests and maybe having a shitty delivery system that’s 1/100 as advanced as the US. No cause for concern. Nothing has changed.”

It’s a wholly unrealistic analysis that does not even pass a cursory sniff test. The United States of America putting their nuclear warheads in Taipei, a region they consider to be stolen from them with the support of western power, would be taken as a unique and massive escalation of hostilities because it would be, they would be stupid not to consider it as such.

Functors are type constructors, not functions (which map values). But you could be forgiven the misunderstanding, because it is easy to trip over this distinction given the identical syntax.

So, to make this absolutely clear, a monad is a type constructor in functional programming. This is why I personally prefer the more “creative” explanations of monads, because they attempt to explain what the monad is doing to the original type: adding context, or the possibility of a null value, or multiple values, or a probability distribution over values, etc.

Taxing the rich more is orthogonal. You can add higher tax brackets all you want, and it'll bring in more revenue.

$600B (or the $160B piece owed by the top 1%) is just the gap between what everyone should be paying based on current tax rates, and what they actually are paying. If you increase the "should be paying" by, say, $1T by increasing taxes, that says nothing about what will happen to the rate of tax evasion. Sure, that $600B figure may go up, but so will overall tax revenues.

And if this effort to crack down on tax evasion works, all the better.
I gotta say, this is outright spiteful on Epic's behalf. Not necessarily bad, but it's always interesting to watch when companies make things personal like this. It's almost certainly more trouble than it's financially worth to relaunch Fortnite's iOS build in a single country, but I suppose we're here to see how they react.
It's a tradeoff.

In my view, the primary function of the title is to help a viewer understand whether the topic is of interest to them and therefore it is worthwhile to click the link. A more-informative title will better serve this critical function.

If some HN participants are prone to making off-base comments based solely on a title, let's address that directly (e.g. via guidelines + voting), rather than by nerfing the titles. Otherwise we're just throwing up our hands and saying "this is why we can't have nice things". I'd rather work toward having the nice things.

Incidentally, it's not just (or even primarily) about length; an article's "native" title often makes sense only in local context, and thus does not communicate well when seen out-of-context on the HN front page.

> However a third party could be disastrous for the democrats,

The US has several hundred political parties. New ones rarely move the needle on national campaigns even on the margins, and the exceptions invariably are founded by candidates that made major marks in recent-prior national campaigns as an independent without a party apparatus energizing their nee party drive, and still underperform the founder’s independent campaign before fading into irrelevance.

Yang might launch an Nth party, but it’ll make less difference in 2024 than Kanye West did in 2020. to

> A third party could be really beneficial in some areas where democrats dominate everything.

In a number of those places, nationally-minor parties (e.g., Greens) already outperform Republicans (and in some, they dominate local offices, though Democrats tend to win the State/Federal ones.)
I think poster thinks Andrew was not called upon often because other candidates had better draw (for their ratings). Back in the debates it was obvious the party had some favorites and some less than favorite candidates. Andrew was among the latter.
Ask HN: Should I form a Delaware C-Corp before getting into YC?
Next year I am going to apply to YC for the first time ever and I am currently working on my MVP and following the great videos/articles available at startupschool.

As far as I can see, VC strongly wants you to have a Delaware C-Corp and the guys at YC strongly suggest that too for the same reason.

What concerns me is that they don't really tell you when this is going to be required, and what are the consequences of filing that legal paper (probably because it is well known and written in the state's legal papers).

As you might imagine I'm a fresh MSc graduate in computer science that wants to dive in this startup world but don't have a lot of money to spend. My question therefore is: what if I don't get accepted into YC? Should I really sign a piece of paper that could get me in trouble [1] (in particular this comment [2]) before even getting a solid investment?

I get their point, they encourage to do it as soon as possible not just for the legal part but also because, in that way, you establish yourself as a startup with legal HQ in Delaware and secure every possible transaction/source code of MVP and other legal stuff that you are going to need even without investments but I want to be prepared for every possible outcome and get a (almost) clean exit if the startup doesn't take off as expected.

So my final question is: should I create a Delaware C-Corp before getting accepted into YC?

Maybe there should be a strong third party precisely for the reason you're describing - could be disastrous for the Democrats. It could also be disastrous for the Republicans. My point being that, if a third party is sufficiently strong to cause significant damage to either of the two major parties, then said affected party would be fairly motivated to help bring about electoral reforms that we badly need.

2) A giant smokescreen? Creeping (missile) barrage of the beach? There are plenty of ways to make it hard to target anything on a beach. Air cover and missile defense will be a big deal.

3) You mean the civilian population will fight to the death? Absolutely no way that's true. Russia showed the way in Crimea: offer incentives to those who support the "liberation"; it both erodes defender support and gives the attackers more legitimacy.

5) Headlines for days, sure, but recently the West has shown that its "red lines" are more crossable than they might appear.

If the PRC ever manages to take even momentary control of Taiwan, there's no way they let it slip away again. And remember that the ocean supply lines heavily favor China over the US (even from Japan or South Korea) for any sort of protracted conflict. The only wild card is nuclear weapons, and all we can do is hope that neither side is insane enough to use them, "tactically" or "strategically."

Pacific NATO was called SEATO. We might be surprised at how few committed and capable allies we'd have. It'd be in most countries' interest to stay neutral in an uncertain war between the current and future economic superpowers. I'd also wager that there'll be much less domestic support for sending hundreds of thousands of Americans to die over Taiwan than there was as a response to Pearl Harbor.
The beauty of unintended consequences of small acts of kindness
Lots of people can live without running water, sewer, power, cars, hygiene products, etc. but that doesn't make any of it practical in modern society in the US. There's of course a limit to this as to where the baseline is, but I'd say having a portable phone of some sort and internet access are pretty high up on that list.
> So if an executable has been modified from the expected value, presumably a bit-by-bit or checksum comparison would reveal the change.

The drive could do things like serve up a malicious version of a system DLL on boot (within the first 20 seconds of being powered on). Then deliver unmodified copies of the file on subsequent read requests. An attack like that would be difficult to detect even if you plugged the drive into another computer.

And as for self updating, the payload could make internet requests, and fetch updated versions of itself online. The controller could then look out for any write which contains a well known sequence of (seemingly random) bytes. And then flash itself with subsequent bytes written to disk. The system component just needs to write the update to a temporary file, flush to disk, then immediately deletes it again afterwards.

I agree with some other sibling posters that the best protection against this is probably full disk encryption. Is that enabled by default yet on windows or macos?

Yes, this is wrong, both in your timeline and description of the events. I said in my previous comments that the Apple bounty program didn't exist when I began (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28471263) so I was forced to consider other buyers in order to get income as a researcher. I never claimed to entertain any black market buyers, nor would I. Zerodium isn't the black market, they sell to government buyers. Government buyers may be concerned with the manner of which their sources collect said zerodays. The black market is Crowdfense, Israeli/Chinese government, et al.
> Web apps with modern stacks are usually pretty complex, so hard for me to imagine someone just casually jumping in as a non-hobby and not running into big problems at some point. Or getting hacked because you didn't bother or forgot to secure something.

That's not my experience at all. Plenty of web apps for self hosting are pretty simple. You just install the packet, read the config files, turn on and off what you need and you are good to go. Since systemd made that easy, most apps now come preconfigured to use a dedicated users and drop the capabilities they don't need. If they don't, you are two lines aways from doing it in their service file.

Then I just throw Caddy in front of everything I want to access from outside my local network and call it a day.

I don't think this is the case. Certainly many people avoid taxes -- entirely legally -- using loopholes and whatnot. But I believe the $600B figure cited in the article is an estimate of outright evasion: tax money that actually is owed, but people are lying or obfuscating things on their tax returns to make their tax liability seem lower.

I don't think there's much of a worry that the rich will leave the US if tax rates (or enforcement efforts) go up. Federal income taxes have been much much higher in the US at various points in history, and this "rich flight" never came to pass. Certainly there will be grumbling if taxes are raised, but the rich will remain rich.

And even if they move away, they still carry US tax liability, unless they renounce their US citizenship. Granted, it's harder to collect in that case, but it's still owed, and if the US government really wanted to find a way to collect it, they'd probably do a pretty good job of doing so.
Or perhaps the opposite. Those that never had the chance to work remotely have since experienced and now that they are back in the office - they want to find a way to be remote again.
You may find this paper interesting:

GhostCell: Separating Permissions from Data in Rust
<https://plv.mpi-sws.org/rustbelt/ghostcell/paper.pdf>

The essential idea is that you can use one of these "GhostCell" structures to assign a lifetime to a related collection of objects (such as the nodes in a graph), which allows the entire graph to be treated as if it had a single owner and a single lifetime rather than a separate owner and lifetime per node.

The paper is relatively recent (2021), and GhostCell is not, so far as I am aware, used in rustc at this point.
There's no legal issue with using it yourself. Debian's problem is that, as a distro, they are creating a single product - the Debian operating system.

Debian could even ship you something that compiles perf against libbfd on your own system. This is the approach they take with ZFS and Linux, which are under incompatible licenses (CDDL and GPLv2): https://bits.debian.org/2016/05/what-does-it-mean-that-zfs-i...

A company is generally a single legal person and so there's no "distribution", but https://www.jolts.world/index.php/jolts/article/view/66/125 is a law review article that discusses the complexities here.

A national political party is a large group of people united within a formal organization around specific ideology helmed by leaders who hold the support of that group.

A national basketball league is a medium sized group of people who play basketball.

As you can see, my plan for a basketball league and Andrew Yang's plan for a political party are facing a similar dilemma.

"Economic power" it might have, I thought you had been talking about the "power" as in "legal or official authority, capacity, or right". And sure you should take Amazon's threats more seriously than threats from individuals. If one person does not like your newfangled law, packs his shit and moves to another state then you are fine, if Amazon does the same - perhaps you should think before enacting such a law a bit more? But Amazon is not unique, if you manage to piss off enough citizens with your misguided laws you will see same or worse consequences. E.g. California and New York both just lost a seat in the House each. Think before you make laws, that's the only advice I have.

Cool tool! It would be great if you showed the PP-adjusted value converted to USD (Using current exchange rates). It might make it easier for me to understand the values for countries I haven't lived in.

For example, $1 USD allows me to buy the same things that $1.21 CAD would in Canada... but $1 USD is approximately $1.27 (https://www.xe.com/currencyconverter/convert/?Amount=1&From=...)... meaning costs are pretty similar in the two countries.

No, Tesla is actually not using Composite Nano particles.

They are using micro particles that are coated with a polymer and then mixed with graphite and a binder.

This is quite different. In that version you contain the silicon expansion not by having complex composite particle but rather by having the polymer contain the cracking.

See this image: https://youtu.be/YTW_Q63bEEY?t=929

Sila on the other hand is creating a more complex silicon particle that is partly empty and can expand without cracking. They have not released a picture, but Talga resources has a silicon composite product and they have a picture:
