You're right, there is overlap in the sense that both Dendron and Foam are open source note taking tools based around vscode and markdown. Dendron differs in our focus on structure - while we support backlinks, wikilinks, and tags, the primary way of navigating notes in Dendron is by hierarchy which can be described by schemas (our type system for note hierarchies). We provide extensive tooling around traversing and manipulating this structure (lookup, refactoring, etc)

For a more detailed breakdown, you can see the foam vs dendron page here -> https://wiki.dendron.so/notes/p5fMTi-6zOyX1TwhL6dM0.html
I spent an amazing 5 years in GE Digital and then GE Corporate. It was chaotic to say the least but I loved it. Great people and insane projects.
It depends what you mean by currency crisis.

But yes, it has happened. Russia 1998 is the most well-known example. Everyone believed that because Russia could issue GKOs in RUB, they wouldn't blow up like Asia...they did. This also happened, to a large extent, in Mexico in 1994 (Mexico actually issued tesobonos, they were domestic currency denominated but shifted the currency risk to taxpayers, they were quite a security).

The reason why is fairly simple: it doesn't matter if the debt is denominated in domestic or not, because people buy the bonds and then hedge their currency exposure which leads (eventually) to the domestic banking system having the same synthetic position as if your debt was denominated in a foreign currency.

The slight issue with historical examples is that the situation is correlated to high levels of financial globalization, which largely didn't happen until the 90s. But because something has never happened, doesn't mean it is impossible.

The point is confused though. The causes of currency crises are changes in capital flows. That is really just saying: the reason why currencies fall is because people sell. They don't really need some "explanation", they definitely contra-indicate with stuff like domestic currency debt...but there is no universal theory possible beyond: people sold the currency (and so currency crises have happened with capital outflows for some exogenous reason, war, etc.).
The alternative is that you're only allowed to like things and increased consumption must be fostered at every turn.

I'll never pass up the opportunity to add random NeXT trivia -- Grab.app is one of several applications that came from NeXTSTEP/OpenSTEP with relatively few modifications, along with Preview.app, Terminal.app, TextEdit.app, Chess.app, and probably many others.

For anyone with curiosity and time to burn, comparing early OS X with NeXT/OpenSTEP in VMs is fun, just to see what changed and what stayed. Some parts are extremely different, while some software seemed to be copy-pasted over, while others clearly had a lot of polish put into them for the consumer market. Fun times!
Liberal Hypocrisy Is Fueling American Inequality. Here’s How. – NYT Opinion
This seems targeted at many on HN. I wonder if there is agreement with the critique?
My car is already very quiet, and I have never in around 20 years of driving put the accelerator anywhere near the floor anyway. I guess it’s “nice” to have better acceleration and I appreciate people drive differently than I do, but doesn’t accelerating hard waste charge in an electric car too?

I visit a gas station about once a week for maybe five minutes, that’s another “I guess that would be nice”, but it doesn’t bother me and I would probably visit the convenience store part anyway, so it’s not worth any kind of electric car premium and I’m not sure about the downsides - what if I forget to charge at home overnight, getting a charger at home, what do I do when there’s a hurricane and no power for weeks, etc.

Also, this is not limited to electric cars, but I have one car with a bunch of controls moved to the touchscreen and I’m never doing it again.

Oh believe me, NextDNS isn't because i'm trying to keep my kids safe from sex, death, drugs and alcohol, it's because the world is out to harm 13 year old girls and I want them to be protected. They watch horror movies and we've never been ashamed of nudity and sex is nothing to be ashamed of.

Ironically, its not porn, warez, hacking or any of that crap that concerns me - it's the dudes who pray on girls - it's the people with fake disorders building communities to cause people to have ticks and self diagnose with severe disorders. It's kids who don't sleep because they're addicted to tik tok and instagram.

Take away their phone to help break that addiction and they end up with friends phones or connecting on other devices...

I can't police all that, I can't talk my kids out of that and I certainly won't hide them from the internet - but i can block the URLS of places i know that shouldn't exist and i can set sane restrictions as any good parent should

Of course kids are gonna find porn and yeah, they're going to try and bypass controls. Clearly, they're figuring it out and clearly, they think we don't know so whose the clever one now?

So would you be comfortable hiring a 4.0 grad from Stanford/MIT without doing a coding interview? Just based on their transcript. Does anyone do this anymore?
You are correct, fooling one of the two hashes Apple places between an image and human review is technically easy, with some prerequisites. (The second hash algorithm is not currently public knowledge; fooling an unknown algorithm presents a different set of challenges).

Talking about how trivial it is on a technical level is, in my opinion, an oversimplification. For the purposes of fooling Apple's NeuralHash to incorrectly flag a CSAM false positive, "easily" involves being in possession of the absolute worst-of-the-worst CSAM images. These are images of sexually explicit material where pre-pubescent children are actively involved.

Following introspection of my own personal moral compass, it's clear to me that being knowingly in proximity to such material would not be "easy" for me.

yt doing this is essentially yt putting their thumb on the scale, telling you that their product is good, and hiding anyone saying it's not.

Generally, you must always have an outside party to review and judge a thing, not the thing itself.

Probably yt would try every trademark and copyright legal attack in the book to take down any such site, but it seems obvious that in common sense terms, the only possible way to have reviews of yt videos is for them to be provided by anyone other than any Alphabet property.

If they had completely different instruction sets, this wouldn't be feasible. The OS would need to be aware of that and move tasks between cores with a compatible ISA.

A possible workaround would be to use the invalid instruction fault to look for a core that implements that instruction.

That, however, wouldn't work if they were completely different, as in a couple GreenArray cores and a couple x86 ones.

Do they? Most of "modern audio" is just software decoding/mixing to a pretty not-smart-Digital-to-Analog Converter.

My educated guess is that most compressed audio formats are optimized for size, not for low latency recording/playback.

They're probably exchanging Tether for loans that their counterparties write against crypto collateral and calling that "commercial paper".

Anything else is ridiculous because people would notice it. If it is all self-contained withing crypto then it makes vastly more sense.

Once you think of a cold wallet full of bitcoin as having value like real estate[*] then it makes sense to take out tether loans against that collateral.

They need to make up something though to sound responsible so they call it "commercial paper" and for some reason nobody questions if they might be grossly twisting the meaning of those two words.

[*] Which I don't, but everyone involved in crypto certainly does.

I think you both are right. You assume that people make investment decisions based on pure data. It's the delivery vans for Amazon and the Ford deal that's going to drive profits and numbers. But please don't underestimate the value of being visible. Rivian's truck looks really good and being recognizable will definitely drive share price as well.

Why bother giving them the protest? Because they've been a good place to work, and have mostly been sane in how they make decisions. If they blow one, I'll give them a chance to fix it... for a little while. Probably not forever, though.

This is clearly not an absolute truth, as it depends entirely on your criteria for evaluation.

Nope. They're little toy tools. Doesn't matter the processing power, if it's consumed in adding filters to social media photos, or running an ssh session.

> and users who want to use them as such must have this option

But they do. There are other products.

By this logic, users who want the security of knowing they don't have to worry about the device, and want the value conferred by a common platform where vendors don't require users to do weird shit because they don't want to play by benevolent overlord's rules -- thereby cheapening the entire ecosystem ... "must have this option" also.

Look, I get it. We disagree. But your preferences are not any more important than mine. It's a mistake to present your strongly-held preferences as absolute truth.
This is very cool. Arginine being an amino acid reminds me of the Warburg hypothesis (cancer as a metabolic disease), which seem to be the best kind of wrong: it contains some intriguing ideas. There have also been some apparently positive trials with dichloroacetic acid, originally a drug for a metabolic disease...
I don't have any problem understanding that some people find it useful. I'm just surprised that so many people seem so worked up over this, given the comparison to my own subjective experience, which is that the dislike count has almost zero utility. I suppose it comes down to the nature of how one uses YT. Relative to the things I watch, I can't remember a single time I ever used the dislike count to influence whether or not to watch a given video. shrug

Not saying those other people are wrong mind you. Your lived experience is your lived experience and no one really has any standing to contradict that. Just expressing surprise at the degree of just how differently different people are reacting to this.
If the reason was honestly for the stated reason, then why isn't this feature selectable by creator or even by video?

The stated reason, as ever, is bullshit.
It might become an outlet for all the people who want to tell others whether they think a video is worth watching or not, making it harder to find comments with substance.
Wrong.

1. Backups are opt-in - just as they have always been.

2. The E2EE backups do not rely on HSM's - they rely on a client-side only key derived by the WhatsApp client, on the user's phone.

3. The client-side key backup does not rely solely on HSM's - naturally, the client-side key must be backed up in case the user loses their phone. This key is itself encrypted and stored remotely (whether this is on third-party cloud or on WA servers is unclear from the report). However, decrypting it requires a user passphrase, known only to the user.

4. The design uses HSM's additively, not as the only support - via an OPAQUE exchange the user can combine their passphrase with a per-user secret stored in the HSM to derive, client-side, the key that unwraps the backup key. OPAQUE ensures WA cannot learn the user key material required to derive the key that unwraps the backup key.

This is all on page 6 of the published NCC report.

Republicans have a weird definition of socialism. They seem to conflate it with dictatorships.

He every hallmark trait of a dictator of a failed state: populist, authoritarian, self-serving, cult of personality, strong man, bribes supporters with state funds, uses police power to crush political opponents, etc, etc.

This comment is not supported by the facts. Tesla has more orders for Cybertruck than Rivian has for their truck or Ford has for their truck. Regardless, none of these companies will be able to build enough for several years to come, maybe even a decade. Each year there are millions of trucks sold just in the United States. Initial volumes for these EV trucks are only projected to be ~50,000/yr.

So your comment is actually moot since all EV truck companies will sell as many as they can produce, the styling does not matter at all.

The best use of SO for me is:
- Write an elaborate question about an apparently unsolvable problem
- Realise the mistake while trying to explain it to the SO crowd
- Close the website

At some point I wanted to have a high score to see if it would affect my daily rate (it didn't) or if I could use it somehow (same as having tons of stars on GitHub - another useless errand).

I started replying to a bunch of questions and the sheer stupidity of most of them made me realise I wasn't ready for that. Most of the content on SO is not great. There are definitely few gems in there and I certainly enjoyed "the <center> cannot hold", but most of the times the docs are better.

On a side note. I never understood people that copy code from Stack Overflow. I can understand people who are not familiar with a programming language - but surely if you're a minimum proficient it would be faster to just write what you need to do or look for a library to do it?

That's the word. It isn't really "likes" in the sense that we normally think of it. It's ticks on the relationship of "engagement" to "dollars".

IIRC, Facebook was pretty upfront about this being why they didn't implement a "dislike" button; the information wasn't valuable to them.
The article is light on substance and focuses on a click baity headline, which unfortunately is necessary to get peoples attention to what's happening

From reading into the docs a bit, it seems the data MSFT is gathering on users apparently is surfaced in a dashboard, initially anonymized, to help administrators create policies (to get started as part of a Day 0 experience). Once policies are defined, MSFT will start snitching on individual users to org admins, analysts and investigators, depending on the policy that is in place at the organization.

The article headline is technically true, in that MSFT is capturing this data today across O365 and Windows products, and they're expanding on what can be done with the data (fundamentally have the machine snitch on the employee).

Most interfaces in Go code have exactly two implementors that will ever be plugged in: the production code and the mock. You want to be able to delve down through the layers of production code, e.g. handler to controller to gateway, to trace what's going on in an RPC request.

There is no distinction between foreign held and internal debt. The offshore debt is owned predominantly by Chinese state banks. There are a few funds that hold these bonds (Ashmore is one), but there is a massive dollar surplus within China and so all the state banks were looking for somewhere to invest money...and Evergrande created a way to do that.
> That’s simple, understandable and should be a sane default anywhere.

This is an usual canned reason given to reject any internationalization efforts, and it is likely only "simple, understandable" and "a sane default anywhere" to people like you. As you didn't give why they are simple, understandable in general, I don't see how your arguments are universally applicable.

> My opinion is that since nobody without a doctorate in Unicode actually fully understands Unicode, having a rule-set for identifiers built on top of the already bewildering Unicode rule-set is a sure-fire way to engineer for unexpected consequences and/or security issues.

That can be said for about all security issues, not just Unicode. That doesn't make you to avoid writing anything, does it? For the record, it is a valid choice to not write anything, but we normally exclude that choice when we are talking about the technology. And the "bewildering Unicode rule-set" is an one-off thing, as it is not like that Unicode produces incompatible standards every year. (Python 3 adopted Unicode identifiers 14 years ago [1] and implementations never changed, only underlying databases have been updated.)
