Our absolute top priority is security, hence why it's under an experimental flag that forces you to whitelist the allowed domains that you accept URL imports from.

Not only that, but before the feature goes GA, we plan to double down on our Web runtime alignment, and execute URL imports exclusively in the context of the browser sandbox (e.g.: the V8 Isolate that backs a ServiceWorker).

This is the trajectory that we are taking for most code execution at development time, and it's the technique that backs nextjs.org/live, which is the version of the dev server that runs 100% in the native browser (no VMs!).

URL Imports represent an opportunity to build a system for sharing ES modules that's much safer than what folks are doing what npm today, in my humble opinion.
> I'd be curious to know what both side think the ideal social network should look like.

I don't care what they look like as long as there's hundreds of them all on relatively equal footing.

I firmly believe that most of the major problems facing society today are not caused by any features of particular companies, but by the consolidation of power in a very small number of them.
It's certainly possible at some companies. There generally aren't any laws about it. Usually it's left up to managers to approve or deny.
Maybe something like https://encore.dev? Looks like a similar mindset.
> The problem instead seems to be a systemic one. i.e. What kinds of posts does the platform incentivise and promote as a whole?

These are the big questions we want to be tackling.
That's not ideal, of course - the point of the Web is that you can visit a website from anywhere - but in practice, when this type of cutting-edge application arrives on the Web, often at least initially it doesn't run optimally in all browsers or has other limitations. That's been the case with things like Mozilla porting Unreal Engine to the Web back in the day, for example.

In general, after the initial launch things tend to improve as both browsers and applications focus on compatibility.
Maybe they did think they were helping. But their threats and denouncement of him were likely harmful.

While I am not particularly fond of MobaXterm, I am wondering what freedom am I sacrificing here? It seems to be a regular software product that you can switch out to something else if/when I feel like. There doesn't appear to be any inordinate lock-in or something of that sort.

Or do you mean "Freedom" as in the GNU?

The company I work for also had a patent troll, who got settled by much bigger companies in the trolls favor.

They found a previous concept that would invalidate their expensive patent(s).

They tried to settle with 0€. The lawyer of HQ didn't agree and changed it so they had to pay 1 CAD.

Just because they could.

If privacy mattered that much to you, you wouldn't depend on Signal to encrypt your messages. You would encrypt them before handing them to Signal.

So you should have an encrypted message that you hand to Signal. Signal encrypts it again and hands it to the bridge. Eventually, whether at the bridge or at the other end or wherever, something decrypts the Signal message. Then the person you are communicating with applies the final decryption outside of Signal, Matrix, or whatever.

If this sounds terribly inconvenient to you, perhaps privacy is not as important as you claim. Security and convenience are almost always in conflict.

If you can borrow against it, you can tax the loan proceeds. It just moves the tax realization to when you receive liquidity for the asset versus a bonafide transfer, closing a loophole. Pay the loan back whenever you want.

Yes, but what if this is the only way to have a profitable business such as these? Are you okay losing them entirely?

More generally, my view of regulation is that it should only exist if there is some quantifiable harm to an involuntary third party (negative externality). Where is the demonstrative harm here, and who is it impacting? Having one friend on FB and another on MySpace, requiring the user to log into each platform separately isn't harm. The effect is the same as having one friend call you on a phone to communicate and the other only use text.

Every single person using these platforms makes a conscious decision to use them given their limitations. Nobody is forcing anyone to use these platforms. The government still runs a post office. You could use that to communicate with people if you wanted.

Instead of passing legislation to fix your problem, how about you just talk to your friends and get them to agree on using a single platform?

I took a very different approach for porting my WebGPU shaders over: I have far too many shaders to port (sometimes pretty massive ones! [0]), so I used Naga [1] at to runtime-translate my GLSL shaders to WGSL. I had to get involved a bit upstream to fix quite a few different bugs in the implementation, but once I got it working I was really happy with the result. It's quite fast, it compiles to a pretty light-weight WebAssembly module, and it works surprisingly well.

Article provides some interesting insight re: patent law and how it is being applied to human genetics.

"Patents are difficult to digest — sometimes by design. The more ambiguous they are, the more flexibility a patent holder might have to claim that their intellectual property encompasses someone else's invention. "The first part of a patent reads like a scientific paper written by a lawyer, and the last part reads like a legal document written by a scientist," writes Contreras. "In both cases, you get the worst of both worlds."

"Although products of nature are not patentable under US law, some lawyers argued that isolating a gene from its surrounding chromosome fundamentally alters the DNA and therefore constitutes an invention. Another, more utilitarian, defence held that gene patents were necessary to nurture health-care innovation."
What do you mean by full access? Native apps on platforms like iOS and Android run within containers that present a narrowed view of the full platform.

If you take a “native” library like QT or wXWindows or even OpenGL do you have “full access”? Any cross platform abstraction or portability layer will remove power and access.

Do we really want to argue for a world where all software is written as if the target is a game console to the metal, even when 90% of apps don’t need it?
Also tree shaking out the stuff you don’t need has never worked better. It’s pretty trivial with lodash.
Keeping in mind that these are generally build-time/server-side dependencies, not client-side dependencies, so size-on-disk isn't a very relevant metric

This does not make me very happy. I already own the tablet, so I get the service for free, but I can't recommend it anymore. For $ 100 per year, it's fairly expensive just to own. And without the service...

I'd be fine if they were charging for "premium features", but the file synchronization PC - tablet is a needed feature.

Sometimes I get the sense that people hate that we exist, in the numbers that we do, because of our impact on the earth by merely existing. A self-hatred if you will. And before you respond with "if only we did X, it would be fine," consider that the difficulty of convincing/coercing lots of people to do things is also an inherent part of our existence. Also part of our existence is the incentive to cheat to get ahead (in whatever economic system you pick).

Yet again, a strawman. Or a few:

1., nobody said "we figured covid out". I said we learned a lot about it pretty quickly. (BTW, coronaviruses and SARS in particular have been researched pretty intensively since 2003, the first SARS pandemic.)

2., they didn't just discover a "single spike protein"

> There's such an endless possibility of how Covid can interact with the body.

Actually, no. There are indeed very definitive ways SARS-CoV2 (or any virus, for that matter) can interact with the body. It's not a living thing. It needs to get into specific type of cells and it can only do it through the spike protein which will only bind to the ACE2 receptor. As long as/if it doesn't happen, the virus is an inert particle. E.g. it won't proliferate in mice (without genetically making them susceptible) or in most other animals. Also, we have a lot of virus particles in us that can't interact with the human cells, so we'll never know about them. One interesting comment from the above curse was that prof. Racaniello said that you can learn bout your "virome" by sequencing your stool and some experiment found that the most frequent virus in there is some plant virus (which don't even have the capability to enter even plant cells by themselves).

Maybe, or maybe posts about how succeed on HN are just particularly popular.
Because you don't just automatically win because the patent is expired. You have to hire a lawyer to research the patent and find out it's expired, then, at minimum, your lawyer has to go to court and prove that the patent is expired.
Because some nut, clutching their gun, waking up from a nightmare screaming "Hilary!" is a meme at this point. Bringing it up out of nowhere seems to mark tribal membership more than anything else.

> This is wrong. Any asset with monetary properties can (and will, in the right environments) be monetized.

That is not the definition of a monetary asset.

"A monetary item is an asset or liability carrying a value in dollars that will not change in the future. These items have a fixed numerical value in dollars, and a dollar is always worth a dollar. The numbers do not change even though the purchasing power of a dollar can potentially change." [1]

Words have meaning, so I guess I'm not 100% sure what you're talking about.

> Invocation of “intrinsic value” is a 100% surefire sign of a dysfunctional economic mental model.

I'm building a custom server (which hopefully now can be replaced with middleware?) which I build with tsc:

$ tsc --strict --esModuleInterop --moduleResolution node --jsx react --outdir build server.ts
node_modules/next/dist/server/config-shared.d.ts:1:15 - error TS2724: '"next/dist/compiled/webpack/webpack"' has no exported member named 'webpack5'. Did you mean 'webpack'?

The introduction of Middleware is specifically in alignment with our zero-config principle.

You should be able to open `pages/` and understand exactly the flow of traffic.

You'll open `pages/`, find `_middleware.js` which processes your request first, and then the rest of the routes. No magic, and heavily inspired in successful predecessors like Express.js.

Always open for feedback, let me know if this makes sense!
I don't have a large personal sample size, but 1.) I'm pretty sure giving a math test to incoming students isn't standard in the US. In any case, they generally already have SAT/ACT scores. 2.) Furthermore, in many (though not all) cases, once you're enrolled you can major in whatever you want.
