What a total scam that kind of clickbait video is.

There was that lemon law lawyer as well trying to go after tesla - also a scam.

I think one difference - Tesla doesn't seem to rollover for these scams as much as others do. Ie, they went after that lawyer, who'd pulled the same stunt on LOTS of other car companies. And won.

And the whole Rich Rebuilds stuff - I used to follow him, but it just devolved into a Tesla gripe fest. Ironically, while folks like Rich says Tesla is not opening stuff up enough they are going to have regulators breathing down their neck for every fire they have (most are things like household not car electrical wiring when clueless homeowner runs a high resistance socket onto their house wiring).

With 500K vehicles, the last thing they need to be focusing on is making these type of clickbait folks happy (Rich Rebuilds etc).

In terms of making frankenstein battery packs the way Rich says they should be made.

1) The BMS for these things has pretty tight tolerance.

2) The swap certain cells out is a disaster waiting to happen.

"No, the "remove a cell" thing is not a "fix" either. The result is the same, it just takes longer. Removing a cell is literally creating an SoC imbalance on purpose and it's idiotic that people who don't understand the Tesla BMS push this."

https://twitter.com/wk057/status/1437607772959428608

"I can't believe this is being touted as a fix. You can't replace individual modules in an S/X pack. There's no way to match them well enough for a long term fix. Might last a few months, but will invariably die again. Have tried it a half-dozen times. Best run was about a year.
"

So we have folks pushing straight scam repairs here on HN as a way to tarnish Tesla.

I suffered with 10 years of Indian recruiter spam in my voicemail. They're never getting my phone again.
The page specifically says that these new versions of EAC are for native builds. So it's on Respawn now to provide that to players.
Doesn't change the fact ARC doesn't work with structs, and people actually allocate them on the heap, hence why on 2018 Objective-C got some support for also applying ARC to structs.

Maybe time to also review the WWDC session and the points made there?
Autospotting on AWS
Haha thanks! I swear I didn't put him there. It has become a running thing, he just loves to get into the photos I take for articles. He tends to want to "help" and knows that new boxes and gear means there's plenty to help with.

I also have a shot of him wide-eyed at seeing the computer turned on for the first time, and still sometimes stops to stare at the lights.
This is fantastic news.

Now I just need punkbuster.

If I can play Planetside2 on Linux I can just ignore games that don't work well on Linux.

I can't wait to delete windows, it does nothing for me professionally or personally outside of being a gamebox. I find between the spyware, bluescreens when trying to move a boot drive to a new box, explorer.exe is a miserable excuse of a desktop and... I could go on about the papercuts but... yeah.
I liked Zero to One, read it twice. I am also a Libertarian (I consider myself to be a very liberal Libertarian, for what’s that is worth).

My complaint about Thiel is that I found it difficult to find much charitable giving on his part. He funds Thiel College, but what else? It is his right to do what he wants, if it is legal, but who wouldn’t feed hundreds of thousands of starving people or many more, etc. if they had lots of surplus cash. Besides being the only political “peace party” of any size in the US, my take on Libertarianism is to respect personal freedom, respect all people who work to support themselves and their families, and to have a strong social consciousness to support making the world as good a place to live in as possible.
The "without crypto" path would have been a regulated-in-most-regions in-game token, a gift card or existing portable-points system (TAP network), Amazon Prime, or something super-high-friction involving credit card or ACH. There aren't other options AFAIK.
I have my e-mails well indexed for search and Amazon's order history is most certainly not more searchable than trying to rifle through e-mails. In particular if I have a charge for $12.34 on my credit card, I can find an e-mail with that string in under a second, but I have to slowly page through my amazon orders doing a ctrl-f for 12.34 on each page.

Amazon used to let you at least download a CSV for a date range, but the don't even let you do that anymore!
That can only detect obvious hacking. Subtle hacking is hard enough to detect that you'd either have to accept high amounts of false positives or false negatives.

It was first brought in in Port Arthur, Ontario, 48 degrees north. It sort of works in London, 51 degrees. So around there I guess though I still don't like it much as a Londoner.
Sure except EAC doesn't work, even on windows with the full kernel rootkit installed.

Money back guarantee SaaS cheats are like $10/month that are undetected by EAC.
Is it the social aspect? Far more people are able to hang out and talk with friends for hours on end than are able to read a book for hours on end, say.

Throw in the ease of changing direction (jumping from one article from another in a wiki rabbit hole, say), too.
They must have spent a million on that landing page
That's... not a good thing.
That so called “guessing” has an awful amount of false positives
Thank you. This makes me very uneasy. Apart from the obvious, it also potentially makes linux a bigger target by increasing exploitable surface a hacker can hold on to. And I am saying this as a happy proton user.

I suspect it's the latter
Hi Googler and thank you, sincerely, for engaging in this discussion.

First line in your legal statement:

>> We do everything in our power to protect businesses, schools, and government organizations from attempts to compromise their data.

Where is the "me" in this equation?
They are an advantage if you think your physical appearance will be an advantage.

If you are the same 'colour' as the place your applying to (i.e. if that's relevant) it might help.

If you are physically attractive (but not too attractive) - it can help.

Basically - it allows a kind of discrimination which usually we don't want ... unless you think you're going to be on the positive end of that!

And I beg to disagree with 'memorable' - we are designed to remember faces - not resumes.

While maybe not so 'impressionable' - a nice photo definitely helps the memory.

It also adds a human connection.

For technical roles, it might not make much of a difference but for almost all non-technical roles, it will probably help if you have a 'charismatic face'.
And again, just because other companies do bad things doesn't mean it's ok.

Also, most of these other companies exist because they provide a real, needed service to people. Facebook creates the need (artificial) for the services they provide.
I would strongly prefer this system over our current method of time just changing and having to do the same math in my head when I travel
Oh great, so you've solved the problem then. The entire industry just hasn't discovered your one simple trick. You should let them know.
Tesla has an entire energy (solar) division via the SolarCity acquisition.
I think their point is that the people who complain about their free speech being stifled for being fired after a twitter or tiktok spat are usually, far more often than not, the type that berated young women for their swimwear or were spewing racist stuff.
Go to Twitch.tv, everyone there will be on gaming PCs.
Honestly I don't care if it's "old fashioned" websites need to start taking responsibility for the ads that they run on their sites.

Yeah auctioning your ad space in milliseconds is cool and maximum profit. I don't care.
desktops are effectively the only thing people play PC games on.
If anything, this is the reason Linux could hit that point. Desktops are increasingly for specialized applications: gaming, development, content production, etc. If you just need general consumption, you probably have a tablet or phone. I could absolutely see Linux hitting 5% just because people who would never use Linux have stopped using a computer at all.
Not letting you know that was worth $4.9 billion
I believe filter bubbles have gotten so powerful that the English language is actually diverging as a result. The various meanings of 'racism' is one example, I call them neoracism and classical racism to distinguish.
Within their context, that's all that exists. As such, what other goal could there possibly be?

If they can kill you, to them that counts as an existence proof of their ethic… and a failure-to-exist-proof of both you and whatever competing ethic you had.

I'm reminded of Prisoner's Dilemma tournaments, and times when TitForTat tended to win out over much more hostile and ruthless strategies. In situations like this I like to look to modeling and experimentation for axioms: like the easily demonstrated proof that discontinuities in simple exchange produce inequities that are not in any way representative of merit: the natural state is not for things to average out, given some simple and natural conditions the natural state is for some unfit competitors to become vastly over-rewarded relative to their merit. Thus disproving certain assumptions that wealth in any way signals merit in any sense.
And yet we just went through a massive GPU shortage suggesting Desktop is alive and well. Do we have any recent industry stats on this?
Insert Michael and Webb "Are we the baddies?" sketch here.
This is a startlingly out of touch comment. Desktop PC gaming, along with self builds are one of lockdowns hottest trends.
Are you suggesting that neither Instagram nor Teen Vogue harmed teens, or is this just whataboutism?

Things that cause harm to people deserve our attention and criticism. If we recently learned that previously peaceful animals like chipmunks occasionally attacked people in national parks, that would warrant a news article too, no?
I wouldn't be shocked if it used BPF probes or something like that. A kernel module is possible, too, especially if they're targeting Ubuntu with DKMS.
Never tried it on Windows, but it works pretty well on mac in my experience
No one disputed that but I gave reasons why this is so. You can use Gmeet in any modern browser (it breaks more often in non-Chrome browsers IME). Is it better on that basis alone? I think not because TANSTAAFL. Why is Google subsidizing it that way?
bl.ocks.org is little brother of observable. Observable grew from it. Personally I like observable for experimenting with interactive tutorials for npm packages, ie [0].

What I'm missing is typescript support, otherwise it's really cool.

What about dead people? They are carbon negative since they are sequestering it in the grave. To be really honest murderers should have more carbon credits.

I really enjoyed Prometheus's launch discussion here on HN. I've followed them on a regular basis because I believe in their vision and mission largely because of Rob's responses here on HN. I'm glad to see they've got funding for the next steps to start scaling.
I am pretty sure Microsoft is doing the same.
Did you need to do anything special to launch? Just hangs for me

Where do you see this?
My xbox turns itself on all the time entirely randomly. Most mornings its already turned on. I will be in the next room and hear the startup beep go off. I don't know if its a faulty switch or maybe I should put on a tinfoil hat.
This is so cool! I wonder how their service resolve conflicts to sync changes back into Notion.
Damn, I've been searching for that for a while. It used to be linked from the order history page and isn't anymore. I thought they had removed that feature. It is a bit annoying that I can get a CSV from my bank in under a second, but it takes a few minutes to get an order report for a similar date range from amazon.
Yes, plaintext email is awesome! Too bad most major providers hide the option (or straight-up don't have it).

I'll just plug https://useplaintext.email as a great resource. The main recommendations are... opinionated (this site is run by Drew Devault, after all), but the instructions are very useful. I personally use thunderbird.
I bought an Ultimate Hacking Keyboard and I absolutely love it. It has solved my primary complaint of feeling tired at the end of the day, and have been loving the custom key commands that can be sent depending on the layer of the keyboard.

Certain shortcuts for things like managing windows are now behind Fn + a key vs Ctrl + Option + Cmd + key.

While traveling I miss my keyboard, but because its not ortholinear at least it retains similar key position so switching to a different keyboard hasn't caused too many issues.
Great work! Love the effort you spent on making notes retrieval easy, all while keeping a beautiful and simple UX. Especially commendable for a solo dev.

Don't be overwhelmed by the negative comments on the pricing model. To be honest, I'd prefer a one-time purchase over subscriptions too, but the recurring pricing you've kept is modest and isn't a dealbreaker for me. And as someone else commented, the monthly subscription in a way gives a sense of safety that the app is going to be actively developed and maintained.

Also I like that you've decided to keep the app usable for all actions other than adding new notes if a user stops paying. I'd need that guarantee before I can commit to a new note-taking app and migrate all my notes.

I'd echo the request of introducing mobile apps for this as well. Preferably on both iOS and Android, as I find that while a lot of folks use Mac because of their work, a significant number of them use Android phones. Also, markdown imports would be great, if it's not already supported.
And those aren't even cheaters using a full DMA module and separate PC which is nearly impossible to detect if done properly.
Indeed, those facts didn't escape me. But like I said: nice to see some recent D3.js work that isn't on observerable.
yes....that's what's crazy: why? Not sure the why folks are confused about folks being confused about this.

There must be some logical reason they would pay out close to 50x the demanded payout, but none of us for the life of us can imagine why beyond shielding personal liability. So, why is that possible?
I believe that there's often a yearly fee for electric vehicles meant to counteract that - there is a >$200 one in Georgia, where I live, and I believe that's far over the equivalent one would pay through a gas tax if one had an ICE vehicle. In addition, I believe the vehicles hardest on the road are commercial trucks, not standard sedans. Put together, I believe the electric vehicle owners here end up subsidizing the roads for commercial truck ICEs, which seems very backwards.
Probably you should try sqlite. And maintenance will be even easier.
I include \latex in my resume under "skills" for this reason. But I agree, it's hard to tell.
Like another said in this thread, yes you would but it's because some cheats are rootkits. It's a little invasive but doesn't seem as problematic as other ACS like Riot's Vanguard, which is always on and China-owned.
Thanks for the heads up on thumb-balls not being a perfect solution. Do you have any links handy?
An alternative to the rubber nubs is a drop of clear nail polish. I started using it on dvorak rearranged keyboards. Not sure what is best, but I got some UV curing type. A bit of alcohol removes the residue after curing, and you get a small smooth bump.
I use both. As an end user the difference is fairly minimal. As dev maybe the debugger is a bit nicer in chrome, but that is just opinion. Also for me in some cases chrome is becoming the new 'IE'. The site will only work in chrome. For my wife if I switched out firefox for chrome I doubt she would even notice.
Although not what OP intended to say, personalization will eventually mean targeted pricing.
When I say "you're being foiled" I'm not talking about product placements. I'm talking about how Google designs its sorting algorithm for me, on my personalized YT front page and how that assortment challenges me to become involved, enticed even, to view/buy certain things.
> This map is cool, but I'm still embarrassed to say I don't understand the concept of "indigenous" particularly well or why Europe, Africa, and Asia have so few indigenous people

The Wikipedia page for Indigenous peoples claims that the majority of indigenous people live in Africa and Asia. [0]

My first thought for indigenous people in Asia would be Tibetans, but if I google "are Tibetans indigenous?" it appears to be a matter of debate.

Yeah except he's right, the vast majority of cheaters can be detected server side.

Literally no game does this, because ?????
Morocco isn't that far south, it's on the same latitude as the American South.

I missed them being on permanent "summer time" (UTC+1) except Ramadan.

Our customers deal with contact centers and they do a lot of business with France, so this is major headache for them.
This thing needs to investigated given that lots of these drivers are being too complacent with this auto-pilot beta software functionality.

It has proven to be very unsafe to use on the roads and is putting the lives of other drivers at risk.
They can only be defeated by... A STRONG BREEZE!
A quick review of Borkism, which has been the rule of the land for the past 40 years since Reagan, might be interesting to some. Cory Doctorow threads are a decent reference on his linkblog https://pluralistic.net/2020/12/10/borked/#zucked and a couple months latter on twitter https://twitter.com/doctorow/status/1357866756509818880
> How do we know that all or even most of these "events" are not coincidences but were a direct result of the vaccinations?

One way to identify a signal is to compare against other vaccinations. Assuming that a vaccine doesn't cause some symptom, all vaccines should have the same incidence of that symptom.

Keep in mind that this is the same data that the FDA uses to estimate risk/reward of vaccinations. Submitting a fraudulent VAERS report is a felony and there is no evidence that such abuse is occurring at a wide scale.

If anything, there is likely significant under-reporting. This study identified 10x as many cases of Myocarditis as the FDA estimated based on VAERS data:

I'm curious how Tesla FSD works with obstacles that aren't cars or people on roads. Where I drive, I often have to slam on my brakes to avoid hitting deer, turkeys, small rodents, running over squashed skunks, etc. I assume that Tesla FSD would notice some of these obstacles, but it wouldn't be able to notice a deer on the edge of the road and identify it as slowdown-worthy... would it?

Curious if any rural Tesla owners can chime in on this -- it's not exactly a documented feature.
wonder how well this really works.

Some comments I see (not speaking of this thread per se, but in general on HN) are really close to conveying internal company information. Which is beyond mere opinion and only available to someone inside the company. Some people clearly use the disclaimer to elevate their "opinion" to the level of authority.
You know this? You've personally tried them? Or is this secondhand, thirdhand, hypothetical knowledge? It seems to me that anti-cheat works the same way DRM works: It poses a barrier to entry that keeps NN% of people who would hack from hacking, which is sufficient to keep the game from becoming a hacker cesspool.
> Making a good human-usable checklist takes a lot of workshopping. Airlines are still constantly revising their 200-page manual of individually optimized checklists for every possible emergency, as plane designs change and new safety data rolls in.

When I first read the book a couple years ago, and introduced checklists into my team, I found that there was no great tool to manage and create checklists and share it with my team. We were basically copy pasting messages over and over in Slack and "checking" them off manually by editing the message. Is there a tool or SaaS out there that solves this problem? (If not, great startup idea?)
Yes, absolutely valid concerns and I've though about those.

When cancelling the subscription, all existing notes and all data remains fully accessible (read and write). It’s a knowledge base, after all. Projects with more than 50 notes will not support adding new notes, but all other features remain fully functional.

About the idea of keeping the latest version without updates: interesting, but tricky to implement in the App Store. You'd need a feature switch for everything. OS compatibility updates would still need to go through or the app would not survive in the App Store (typically this is what would get users to upgrade for apps distributed outside of the App Store).

Even if the app were to disappear, you could still access your notes with a browser and copy the data over to another app. Not as convenient as using text files, but the ability to embed images into the notes led me to go with HTML.

Happy to answer more questions!
Lots of people saying it’s like PHP or liveview with elixir.

We kinda have that with livewire[1] and inertia[2] and as awesome as they are (no separate api etc) they also suffer from the “magic”

I know what you mean. They've just released their "expansion" too, New Genesis, which pushes further away from the original!
This uses the Lightning Network, which requires an invoice (unless the node has keysend payments enabled, but most end users don't run their own node). It's not the same as a Bitcoin address, and address re-use is a dirty habit anyway.
does nothing practical happen on the front end?
> I find between the spyware, bluescreens when trying to move a boot drive to a new box, explorer.exe

I worry that EAC basically amounts to spyware, however.

Also, and this is off topic, but I think Windows Explorer is the best GUI file manager on any platform. Shoot me.

Good to see Epic coming back on their shunning of Linux. I guess their quarrel with Apple opened their eyes about walled gardens...
The whole article is massively misleading. The team used same basic design at three different scales: micro, meso, and macro (their terminology). They are 0.4mm, 2mm, 40mm in diameter respectively. The "IoT flier" used the macro scale design; in 40mm you definitely can already fit all sorts of antenna, although power is still an issue. All the other, smaller fliers did not have any microchips in them.

So the title "Flying microchips size of sand grain" is just plain wrong here :(
Right, so a small chip sitting on the SPI bus for the flash would fit all of what you said and give attackers another capability: persistency in the face of replacing the flash itself. And yes, it'd probably be something small, like rewriting one of the keys stored in flash.

And BMC networks are extremely high value targets. Tons of exploits from running ancient code, and DMA access to the the rest of the system, often without even an IOMMU in the way.
