Ok. I think we are mixing 2 things here. This concrete CVE might not affect Linux. So my question how to install the given drivers is irrelevant.

However, in general all sources I read say that the PSP runs some closed source firmware and it has full access to the main memory. So that will always remain a nasty source of insecurity unless there is a switch to disable it (reportedly some BIOSes have such switch, but I have not heard about any 3rd party audit what such switch does.) Vendors will always tell you that their proprietary solution is secure and does not leak any data until someone can somewhat trustworthy demonstrate that they were wrong. Experience has shown that typically it's not a question of whether it happens, but when it happens. It can take years but someday some smart person finds a way. Some create a logo and a website to earn reputation. others earn money secretly.

No, I don't have any insider information you would not have. I just believe the information that it's an ARM processor running closed firmware and it has memory access.

On a serious note I think internet will evolve to instead of serving our needs it'll serve the needs of AGI.
Heaven forbid parents be held responsible for their kids' mental health. We saw this with rock 'n roll, video games, and marijuana. Your kid saw someone possibly wearing a more expensive outfit on social media? Scarred for life, right? Imposing stricter age verification to clamp down on trafficking and the like is perfectly reasonable, but this social media demonization is the latest moral panic, and I hope it dies down before Congress does something stupid.
Semi intelligent automation like self driving cars, most likely. They already work so it is only a matter of time before it gets widely deployed, like how it took decades for the internet to truly take off. Other than that I don't think we have anything as big as the internet on the horizon.
What add-ons do you have installed? I've never had a problem like this in Firefox, in the 10+ years it has been my primary browser (on Windows though). Have you done a memory test too? Something definitely sounds broken here.

Probably true ai. It has good potential to revolutionize the way society itself is organized if it is implemented right.
I'm honestly baffled over why beer commercials are considered socially acceptable - but then again I think that advertising (in our modern interconnected world) only ever serves to drive overconsumption. If you want a beer - you go to the bevy and pick out a beer you'd enjoy... if I'm watching TV and the TV tries to make me want a beer - that's not a good thing.

Good advertising[1] is limited to making sure your product is visible in comparison to competitors - having shiny cereal boxes is something I find pretty meh, but in the cereal aisle you're dealing with someone who wants to buy some kind of cereal and you're trying to convince them to buy yours. TV Advertising drives up demand for products which, by definition, means we're consuming more of that product than we otherwise would... that's great for business... and it's also great for the obesity epidemic.

1. What I'd consider to be ethical advertising, but that's like my opinion man.
Fundamentally, cryptocurrency is an end-run around the ridiculous and absurd SWIFT sanctions, KYC, and AML regulations that weigh down banks around the world. There's nothing innovative about it beyond this.

We've known how to do two-phase transactions for decades, now. We've had Merkle Trees for about the same period of time. The only innovation cryptocurrency offers is that it's decentralized, to avoid the garbage regulations surrounding moving money.

If anybody actually cared about the environmental impact of cryptocurrencies, they'd do the obvious thing: advocate for the free, unencumbered movement of money from person X to person Y within the existing system.

A repeal of KYC and AML would immediately kill all cryptocurrencies, particularly privacy coins.
Self-hosting. Peer to peer. Ambient/pervasive/ubiquotous computing.
An average webpage today is several megabytes in size.

How would a few bytes over a couple of UDP packets for DNS have any meaningful impact on anyone's network? If anything, things fail faster, so, there's less data to transmit.

For example, I often use ordns.he.net as an open recursive resolver. They use PowerDNS as their software. PowerDNS has the default of packetcache-servfail-ttl of 60s. OTOH, fb.com A response currently has a TTL of 300s — 5 minutes. So, basically, FB's DNS is cached for roughly the same time whether or not they're actually online.
AI/ML still feels like a nothingburger to me.

Yeah i get there are some applications in some niche tasks, but we're like in the 1970s of the AI/ML revolution if we compare it to the internet's timeline.

It now serves as a reference for this algorithm, something that was missing before and not well served by a blog post. It does not claim to have invented the algorithm.
I'm mostly talking about significant impact on AWS ( revenue) within 6 months. Which is not realistic in that time frame.

I see a way for cloudflare to innovate based on dropping egress fees. But I'm not sure if i can drop my hunch this early. I think i can wrap it up with " empowering open-source".

I'll see if the future unravels in that direction. There are additional products required for that path to fulfill and I think a 6 month timeline is kinda short for that.

At $85 for the USB-C version it is surprisingly expensive (In my mind these Yubikeys have all been around $50).

And it only supports FIDO/Webauthn/U2F -- so you cannot use this with the Yubikey authenticator app to store TOTP tokens.
Perhaps, but no individual continually does it for years, harming millions if not billions of others, in pursuit of profits.
I see a lot of negative comments on this thread. Fair enough. I have seen the good, bad and ugly of Udemy. I have never tried to publish a course (thought about it). I am sure the instructor-side view of reality is less than ideal. Frankly, this is true even of massive platforms like Amazon. Ask any Amazon seller what the world looks like from their perspective. It can be horrific and surreal.

Udemy (and Amazon) do not create value by developing top-notch back-end applications for instructors and sellers. Nor do they add value by having the best process for behind the scenes participants. Their value comes from what consumers see and experience.

Yes, Udemy has a bunch of junk courses. I probably bought a few hundred courses from them. I am very careful about watching as much of the free material as possible before making a decision. Once you've seen and experienced a few courses you get a sense of how to evaluate quality.

You can also do research on the instructors outside of Udemy. For example, a while ago I decided to take Robert Feranec's Altium Designer course on Udemy. I wanted a refresher. I use the software daily but I do so many things I haven't really kept up with the latest and greatest.

https://home.fedevel.com/other/about-robert

Robert's course is top notch. I really enjoyed it. I will likely take some of his advanced classes off-platform.

I've also had my kids go through various courses on Udemy. From software development to handwriting, math, languages and using GIMP. All great courses. No complaints whatsoever.

One of my kids is currently going through the excellent "100 Days of Code - The Complete Python Pro Bootcamp for 2021" from App Brewery. It is amazing to see just how engaged she is.

One of my other kids is currently going through MIT's 6.00.1x on EdX while simultaneously using the "100 days of Code" course on Udemy to shore-up holes in his Python knowledge. He is doing great.

From there I plan to move them to higher level courses on either (or both) EdX and Coursera. These kids are going to finish high school with actual marketable skills that will lead to nice jobs during college (rather than the useless shit they are being fed in school...don't get me started). If it was possible to take these courses for credit they could graduate high school and obtain a BS in CS within a year. Sadly the only path I have been able to identify has a starting age requirement of 17, which I think is ridiculous. They are a couple of years younger than that and can already code circles around most first and second year university CS students. Age is irrelevant.

Anyhow, I guess I am saying that there's a lot of good on the platform for learners. You just have to be careful about evaluating courses and instructors.
There have still been no consequences for large banks issuing known bad mortgages in the early 2000s and then reselling those mortgages in bundles with artificially inflated default rate claims.

I'm not sure how a cryptocurrency based financial system, designed so that there can be never be criminal justice consequences for any financial action, is supposed to be an answer to particular abuses without consequences in the ordinary financial system. The state doesn't do a great job regulating bad actors in the financial system - how can "let them do whatever they want" be the answer to that?

If we had an ethereum based loan system, in the ideal, home owners could not get relief for the most abusive contract and those who made those contracts could remain anonymous and inherently immune to consequences.
There are only 2 ways of surely making money:

1) Bundle

2) Un-bundle

>asking the government to violate their own law (the first amendment)

I don’t believe this is the case, isn’t the whistleblower accusing Facebook of lying to its investors and has filed SEC complaints for the matter?
they're not relevant at all because you don't even need to work at facebook to disseminate facebook's research. It's a smear because it's a completely irrelevant ad hominem. The research is straight forward enough, and now public, so that everyone can actually come to the exact same conclusion she did simply by reading it. What she has done is made it public. And Facebook does not refute is because they cannot, so they go after the person's CV.

Can you explain to me using basic logic what the connection is between your career status at facebook and reading research of the effects of facebook products on its users? what's next, do I need to work at Exxon to understand climate science?
Some people use secrets chats if you want to hide something, they have the auto destruction of messages and chat way before it was implemented on WhatsApp.

Isn’t this usually taught right before sort algorithms? It’s a simple lead-in to the topic and is great for reasoning about memory overhead.
Also easier to convince someone ignorant of the problem domain that they have an adequate understanding of the problem domain, than to convince someone with an comprehensive understanding of the problem domain that the problem is solvable and worth investing effort into.

> And Microsoft could ask the OEMs to push a UEFI update that enforces secure boot with only the Windows keys. I don’t think they will though.

Well, let's be fair: They could try, but again, that'd require those OEMs to cooperate. And you'd still end up with folks like System76 and Framework that'd go their own way because nothing can stop a vendor from creating an open x86-based design. They just wouldn't be able to ship Windows pre-installed.

Apple, by contrast, could just do it by fiat because they own the entire ecosystem, and no one could do a damn thing about it.

That's the difference between an open, interoperable ecosystem and a closed one.

I genuinely don't understand the debate, here. Are you seriously trying to claim that the Apple hardware platform and the x86 ecosystem are equally open/closed?
No, they are all ad hominem attacks. She shared ~18000 documents. Doesn't matter who the messenger is at this point, it's all about the veracity of the documents themselves.

Did Facebook deny creating those documents? No. Did they refute statements from those documents? No. Hence statements about the whistleblower are not relevant.
Definitely Virtual Reality. Just stepping into Beat Saber, my small living room turns into an expanse that previously would have required hallucinogenic drugs to experience.

You raise a legit concern around security patches, but may not be aware some of us are still on extended security updates through to 2023.

For those less fortunate, third parties like 0patch are backporting many critical ones to Win 7. If you pay attention to the disclosed vulnerabilities several can be mitigated in other ways (e.g. registry tweaks, removing compromised components like ATMFD.DLL, etc). And without suggesting reliance on their goodwill, I should point out Microsoft quietly released a couple updates to the general public since their official EOL, and has made exceptions in the past for dire emergencies (e.g. XP / WannaCry).

Using an out-of-support OS isn't anyone's first choice, and I'm not endorsing it. But labeling me "completely irresponsible" feels hyperbolic considering you have zero knowledge of where this is being run, the overall security posture, or a complete picture of the tradeoffs informing the decision. Fresh zero-days are discovered all the time even for the latest software, and a good defense in depth lets you mitigate for weakness in one layer by bolstering others. I've encountered knee-jerk reactions like yours before when dealing with genuine circumstances impeding upgrade, and they tend to dissipate after working closely with those concerned to shed a bit more light.

I wish Linux were a viable substitute, but for various reasons that isn't always the case (e.g. unsupported software/hardware, investment in platform). In the meantime, just because Microsoft purports their new dogfood is better than the old one doesn't mean I'm going to blindly eat it.

There are circumstances where your reaction is warranted. But I'm not a guy trying to bring a feral Win 7 laptop into your corporate network, so, with respect: back off!

I was forced to get a private office because my internet connection at home is terrible. It really is the best of all worlds— it lets me separate home from work effectively, I’m not worried about kicking my legs up and watching some YouTube videos when I have downtime between meetings, let’s me concentrate on my work away from my wife and kids, it has a gym that I use everyday after work and is right next to a golf course where I play a round every Friday when we don’t have any meetings or I don’t have anything pressing to complete before the weekend.

I really like the current HN title.

It has nothing to do with the tweet which I don't understand at all.

The comment the tweet is based on is also really good -

It's why we need to get internet porn, shopping, Netflix and video games to the poor. And burn to the ground the idealists who want to get them Wikipedia.
Amplification not in the electrical signal amplification sense but rather in the sense of amplifying the message. Facebook is giving more visibility to content that it considers more engaging, even if that content leads to harmful outcomes (it’s own research proves that).
So how do they encourage people to return library materials on time or soon thereafter?
That doesn’t sound normal. Perhaps your profile is in some sort of inconsistent state after years of usage? Maybe give it a try with a new empty profile as well.

That's awesome. I mentioned Bucky's "Cloud Nine" on a comment of yours ten days ago, it seems you're all over it, eh? Have you seen Alexander G. Bell's cellular geodesic kites? I feel like a cellular system makes sense because it would be easier to manufacture and assemble large systems out of collections of smaller systems.
Proof of work has demonstrated security over time. It costs a lot to do so - as soon as Proof of Stake or another system can provide the same level of security assurance, the market will rapidly shift there to capture the benefit without the costs.
This seems like an obvious improvement.

There is no need for late fees when libraries can use much simpler and more effective incentives like not allowing you to check out more books until you return the ones you have.

Think about it rationally:

If you are poor with an overdue book, you really have no incentive to return it. You can't pay the fee so even if you return it you won't get use of the library.

With the new system you get immediate use of the library once you turn in your overdue book. The benefit for returning books is much higher.

The number of 'niche tasks' where it has had immediate application value is enormous, to the point where it will be quite a while before all of the low hanging fruit has been plucked, it definitely wasn't a nothingburger.

I've looked at numerous start-ups over the last couple of years that managed to substantially alter the landscape they operated in on the basis of the change in the state of the art due to AI/ML.
Clearly a scam.
Yeah, that's a massive problem with the natural language domain all across machine learning.

Unfortunately it's very difficult to track down training data for chess commentary in the first place, let alone trim down biases. For reference, I was able to gather about 1 million samples, but it really needs a billion.

Hopefully through data augmentation and better general intelligence models we can make better progress on bias issues soon, as that's a huge problem when we start trusting AI models too much in life.
None of the things you listed work as replacements for the EVM. A decentralized SWIFT still can't execute software that can move money around.
Are you familiar with BootCamp, an explicitly advertised feature to boot into Windows (https://support.apple.com/boot-camp) - They've advertised it quite a bit. They maintain Windows drivers for their hardware.

Re on the M1 specifically, Apple suggests they'd totally be on board should Microsoft put in the effort:

https://www.macrumors.com/2021/09/14/arm-windows-m1-macs-not...

> Apple's software engineering chief Craig Federighi last year said that Windows coming to M1 Macs is "up to Microsoft." The M1 chip contains the core technologies needed to run Windows, but Microsoft has to decide whether to license its Arm version of Windows to Mac users.

I imagine that once Windows on Arm is supported, they'd be totally be on board.

Perhaps if you weren't so hostile in your replies, you'd be down-voted less. You come across as angry.
Stock Market is hardly the right comparison

Comparable would be messaging on traditional networks.

OTP/Erlang based AXD301 has had exceptionally high uptime, the reliability figures commonly cited are 9 Nines! (99.9999999%)[1] for example. The entire language stack was built primarily for telecom to have exceptional reliability and uptime. WhatsApp (at-least originally) was built on Erlang and BEAM VM.

Telecom systems have likely had lesser downtime than Facebook in the last 30 years.

[1] Uptime for AXD301 over 20 years has many other factors including hardware, architecture etc and the 9 nines is really the reliability of Erlang when there was uptime , the caveat being reliability numbers cited and uptime are not directly related .

You can't check out new material until you return the materials that you already have.

From an article on Chicago's new system:

| Chicago's cardholders have seven days past the due date to return items before their card is blocked from use. In the case of lost materials, patrons must pay to replace the book or provide a new copy of the same edition.
