Whether it's more accurate to say that Firefox doesn't support Hangouts, or Hangouts doesn't support Firefox, is tough to say. Hangouts disables the blur feature because it performs poorly the way they've implemented it. Firefox is working to optimize that implementation (it's a valid way to go about it), but I believe it would be possible to have a different implementation that worked fine on existing Firefox.

> I don't understand how a car with detectors that dim mirrors can't also turn your high beams off when they detect another car in front of you.

Some can, though I have no idea on how common it is. My 2013 Dodge can do this. Unfortunately, it's also pretty terrible at it, resulting in a lot of on, off, on again, not quite flashing. e.g., a slight bend in the road, it doesn't seen anyone if front, turns high beams on, only for the road to bend back and all of a sudden your brights are shining in someone's face as the road bends back again. Sometimes, I've seen even changing lanes be enough for it to turn brights back on again. It also doesn't seem to give as much consideration when following someone as leaves them on way too close for me.

I live in an urban enough area with plenty of street lighting anyway, so I tend to use the auto high beam feature almost never (it can be toggled with a position of the turn signal lever). I do, however, use the auto-on lights in general, though. Nice to just not have to worry about turning lights on (or off).

I've also been pulled over before for flashing my brights at a police officer. It was entirely unintentional, though. I was a relatively new and young driver (17 or 18 yrs old at the time) and I was driving an older vehicle that still had a foot operated switch for the high beams that tended to stick.
Just to be clear, the last bit of sea level rise was coincident with this cloth's manufacture.
I'll also add that "holy grail" type discoveries tend to be published in higher tier journals than this one.
Yeah, 1 is "a", 2 is "a couple", 3 is "a few", 4 is "some". You don't get to "many" until at least 5, though I'd probably call it "a handful", 6 as "a half dozen", and leave "many" to 7+.
Does autodimming work decently on C1? It's really bothering me when I try to use my CX as a monitor.

>" I really liked the old American Airlines scheme where they just didn't paint the airplane."

It wasn't quite that simple. I believe the 'bare metal' finish actually had a layer of protective varnish painted on, to protect the metal from oxidation (anyone who has handled bare aluminum can tell you that it develops a layer of oxide very quickly). In addition to that, the panels had to be specially chosen and very carefully handled, as small blemishes were very obvious.
Nothing is published on HN, it's just a content aggregator. Importantly, the content that appears on HN is submitted by the same users who leave the comments. That makes it markedly different from, say, someone's blog with a comment section.
If/when we figure out how to make good tasting beef industrially, without the intermittent "there is a cow" stage, the world will change a LOT, for the better.
It depends on what you value. For us it was image size, low noise and good color to get a great cinema experience at night. We couldn't get the same at any reasonable TV price and we also hid it really well so that when it's not on it's just an empty white wall and the room doesn't seem to have a TV at all. It's definitely a tradeoff and not for everyone.
Flashing Headlights in Florida Protected Speech
Or even poorly aligned OEM lights. Most US states don't have vehicle inspections, and the ones that do usually aren't checking headlight alignment.
This technology is not great on a windy[1] european road though. I rented a car recently and noticed that it was auto-dipping but the problem is it dips once it has detected the oncoming vehicle. That is fractionally too late as the driver has already been dazzled. Manually, I would dip the headlights just before the car came into view because I could see the headlights looming.

[1] a road with lots of turns, not one where the wind is blowing
It's a legitimate practice in science to speculate. Having heard the Harvard guy explain more fully the Oumuamua thing, it's struck me as perfectly fine activity for some scientist to look into. His hypothesis is almost certainly going to be untrue, but it's fine to investigate a bit of a moonshot idea. You don't want half the field doing this, but you absolutely need different little pockets of speculative work going on in order to keep scientific inquiry open, dynamic, and diverse.
1) A more fair interpretation of the pro-gun argument would be that firearm rights are designed to guarantee long-term stability and democracy. The current stability of a small amount of relatively young democracies in Europe and Asia that do not have gun rights does not debunk the claim that gun rights protect against tyranny over the long term.

2) Considering the EXTREMELY violent, turbulent history of the last 100-150 years of governance (democratic and otherwise) in Europe and Asia, I don't think this is the strong argument you think it is.
equal access to information. (no "insider" benefit)

people trading off market are taking their own risks willingly, the market itself tries to be fair w.r.t. reported

if you are listed, you effectively agree to release info on certain terms, so that off-market don't get a better advantage also

When I had posted this, there had been no tweet, just a leak from a CNBC reporter with three lines : breaking news, Jack is rumored to be leaving, stay tuned for more info.

there was a massive info asymmetry, so NYSE had to halt trading until it deems news has percolated enough, I guess.
Good arguments on both side, but personally, i'll keep on using it and I would really like my bank to do the same... :(

Definitely a real interesting flex suggesting that Ryan Sleevi is "wrong all over the place in ways somebody who doesn't know can't fix" about WebPKI.
I was reading the 3rd edition of Limits to Growth (2003) and was very interested to see this article and its take on corn yields as one of their collapse scenarios relied on arithmetic growth in ag yield versus exponential increase in requirements. They did note in the book that some organic farming techniques were able to increase yield substantially without need for as much fertilizer, which itself masks soil salinization. A closer reading of their charts seemed to indicate that there is enough land and yield available for the 21st century so long as the land is not destroyed by pollutants or climatic events.

They didn't go into depth about these topics and I don't know much about farming. Do you think there are non-fertilizer based techniques that would be sufficiently beneficial?
That's what you get when you listen to philosophers. They seem to have a dislike of evidence for backing up their claims
Braini Reviews: Brain Supplement Nootropics Booster And#8211; Enhance Focus
>There are numerous arguments along the line of Turing's halting problem that restrict what that kind of thing can do. As it uses a finite amount of time it can't do anything that could require an unbounded time to complete or that could potentially not terminate.

I have used a similar argument to show that the simulation hypothesis is wrong. If any algorithm used to simulate the world takes longer than o(N) time, then the most efficient possible computer for that is the universe which computes everything in O(n) time where n is time. In other words, you never get "lag" in reality no matter how complex the scene you're looking at is. Worse than that, some simulation algorithms are exponential time complexity!
>Not sure whether we live in different times, but isn't the same with YouTube? The cost to watch is $0, and you can even watch it ad-free for $0 with a free ad-blocker, yet 50 million people still choose to pay $12/mo for YouTube Premium.

Isn't that more about information asymmetry than value proposition?

Blocking YouTube ads with the appropriate add-ons for free isn't necessarily that well known, except among the tech savvy.

While some tech savvy folks may choose to pay rather than use such add-ons is one thing, but the "great unwashed masses" don't have information about such add-ons, perhaps encouraging them to purchase something they wouldn't purchase if there was more perfect information availability in the market.

I'm not claiming that's the case, but it seems a reasonable supposition.
Great examples - social media platforms could do well and follow dang's example.
Have you considered pivoting out of the baking industry and into something more profit-positive?
I think it's better to think of GPT-3 not as a model but a dataset that you can interact with.

Just to give an example - recently I needed to get static word embeddings for related keywords. If you use glove or fasttext, the closest words for "hot" would include "cold", because these embeddings capture the context these words appear in and not their semantic meaning.

To train static embeddings that better captures semantic meaning, you'd need a dataset that would group words together like "hot" and "warm", "cold" and "cool" etc. exhaustively across most words in the dictionary. So I generated this dataset with GPT-3 and the resulting vectors are pretty good.

More generally you can do this for any task where data is hard to come by or require human curation.

I just finished Neuromancer by William Gibson (published in 1984) – a mind-bending story with elements of AI consciousness, corporate overlords, and human augmentation. Personally, I loved the whole book.
I like the idea of getting people a pihole set. Pi zero. W with case and heat sync. Low power headless power-supply. I run mine with a 500ma wall wart.

Pihole is a game changer. Giving you back control of your network by blocking ad networks and allowing blocking of networks and services that don’t operate in the user’s interests.
Though this is just the RNA sequence, not a full recipe on how to create the vaccine.

For a farmer, at least those who own the farmland, the sustainability of their land is far more important than the yield this year.

I am pretty sure that deliberately tricking an automated system into causing bodily harm is already coved by existing law. Think of all the automated systems that have existed before ML.
Grover's algorithm is pretty general, I don't think there is anything we know about that we could switch to.

Shor's is faster but more specific. It works on factoring and elliptic curves, but not on hashes. The advantage of Shor's is that if you have enough qubits, you can get the answer immediately. Grover's only offers quadratic speedup, effectively halving the number of bits in the hash function.

So for signatures we just need to switch to something like a hash-based signature algorithm, with keys having twice as many bits as we'd want against classical attackers. But we don't have hash functions that keep Grover's from working, so a quantum miner be way faster than classical miners.
I've found the solution a while ago: unfollow. I only follow people who tweet about themes that interest me.

If somebody wants to tell the world their private life, good for them, but without me.
Hmm my experiences with TeamCity have been very good.
What are your other constraints for that? Not having to manually modify a factory's work I assume? If you're allowed to change the factory's settings you could do it with a very low number using a sushi belt feeding 2 factories to produce output items (one to unbarrel liquids and another to produce all final products and a couple things around the edges to produce raw resources like the liquids and metals.
resistFingerprinting is a hidden setting. Mostly it's for Tor Browser. Supporting Tor Browser's threat model and not supporting yours might be disappointing. That doesn't make it a poison pill.

The only direct way currently is to pay for associated products like Firefox VPN, assuming it's available in your region. That money will go directly to Mozilla Corporation, which develops Firefox. Donations go to Mozilla Foundation, which does advocacy and various world-improving things (IMO). Mozilla Corporation cannot legally accept direct donations IIUC. I think it'd be a money laundering loophole or something?

Servo was never going to grow into a complete browser, and much of it was absorbed into Gecko (the Firefox codebase). But I agree, it would be great to have the Servo idea pushed further forward.
Yeah he has gone out of his way to speak against ETH.
Which is why I pointed out the mass starvation and "re-education" camps of Vietnam and China!

That wasn't to leave out the same horrors of the Soviet Era, but to highlight how blaming Communism as an ideology is not enough to explain why Russian food culture changed.
I was going to say that the 8880 also did have some special parts, or ones that at least I wasn't aware of existing in other sets at the time. The ball joints used for steering and power on the same wheels (I don't know what they're called), probably some parts in the transmission, etc.

I really had no idea what's been happening in Lego since the mid 90's, though. Looking at the set GP linked to, it probably has a much more custom parts than the 90's ones even if those also sometimes had specialized parts, and I'd have to agree with you.
If the concern is the protection of the consumer then why not just grant an enforceable "Authentic" badge? The consumer can see then what is and isn't legitimate. Companies will certainly capitalise and make said badge prominent and bring to court those that falsely use it.

The consumer is protected, the company has recognisable authority and the concept exists within public space.
What a screenshot lol. Imagine trying to present that browser design as an MVP in 2021.
I'm a big fan of SpaceX but sometimes i wonder why Musk gets such a pass on timelines. I understand things happen and change but when the CEO gives a date for some event then it needs to happen on that date or the CEO should be hat-in-hands sorry describing in detail why the date was missed.

I think even the Musk superfans eyeroll whenever he gives a date for some new advancement. For example, didn't Musk say the test orbital launch for Starship was goign to be last July or something?

Good link, but to be fair it looks like it's leveled off since 2011. Oil & gas are continuing to grow, as are solar & wind.
IETF standards matter to IETF protocols, which will then choose from what the IETF has already standardized because trying to push your own RFC through is hard enough as-is; you don't really want to get into a kerfluffle with the CFRG at the same time.

I guess I'm just saying it would be super weird to see a modern cryptosystem share keys for any pair of constructions, because the standard pattern here is to start with some root secret (usually a DH agreement, maybe with a PSK mixed in) and then just HKDF out all the specific secrets needed to drive the rest of the system. I don't know of something that could really blow up if you used a Blake KMAC with the same key as ChaCha20, but if you saw that in a real design, you'd assume other things were wrong with it, right?
I see this kind of argument with blockchain bros as well, and it drives me nuts.

If I write crappy paint program and all I can claim is, "It's no worse than the time/effort of drawing by hand," what exactly have I achieved in your opinion?

And if the posts on HN wrt blockchain and ML constantly feature these "no-worse-than-what-we-are-replacing" arguments while posts about, say, paint programs don't, what does that say about the buzz around blockchain and ML?

Edit: clarification
I've been playing around with the IBM TTS for audiozing research papers. I think that research should be more accessible and I think that the audioform is the way forward.

The comprehension of powerful ideas should be easy, effortless and intuitive. Listening to content has the double benefit of ensuring that talking about complex subjects is all the more familiar. If you've been introduced to a topic through speech, talking about it is all the more natural.
Well, you can make standalone binaries with both Kotlin and Java these days, so this may be related to when Fleet was started rather than how you'd do it in 2021.
the difference is the distribution channel. For cordova you still need to use Apple store and pay yearly and share your income with Apple. With PWA, the distribution channel is web, so no commissions for Apple.

You still don't need to put it on IPFS. You have your own website? Great! I am glad it works for you.

But for the absolute majority of people, they don't know or care about "having their own website". Early in the century, those people would go to Geocities/Yahoo. Later on with "web2.0" the mainstream went on to have their blogs and their social media presence, which made it easier for the mainstream, but not without its problems - e.g, people getting into walled gardens, surveillance capitalism, tragedy of the commons due to the eyeball-chasing nature of web content producers, etc...

Now with "web3" the idea is that the individual nodes can be in control of their data, and that the tech is (slowly) becoming easy enough to be adopted by the masses. That's all there is to it.

You can say "I could do that with web1!" Yes, it is true. But it is also largely missing the point. The fact that you (and I) could do these things with "web1" does not satisfy the mainstream that does not know or care about setting up their own pages and setting up a server.

Dissing "web3"on the grounds of "it doesn't give me anything new" is the nerd's version of "I was a fan of the band before they were mainstream".
Afaik solana full nodes require basically datacenter level networking (unless you have like gigabit fiber at home) while more people could run an Eth full node at home on cable internet. That's one aspect of a sacrifice in decentralization in the Eth vs Solana debate.

What about blocking an article about Hunter Biden's laptop?

What's bs to you, may not be to someone else. Speech is way larger than just facts. I wouldn't want to live in a society where opinions are not allowed.

Free speech is important and it's already not including violence (eg. Screaming fire in a crowded place is a crime and not covered by free speech). We don't need tech politicised censors on their platforms-not-platforms and we don't need hate speech restrictions.
Show HN: Android Hacker News App That Scrapes Articles and Shows Summaries
Hello HN! Today I bring to you Flow, a HackerNews reader created with user experience in mind.

There are many HackerNews clients out there, but there's a few things that set Flow apart

1) Scraping articles in real time - this means articles not only get displayed alongside an image, but they get a summary too!

2) Built to be more visually engaging than your run-of-the-mill HN client. Most HN clients are very plain and boring. Flow was made to look good!

3) Flow was built with User Experience in mind - everything was made to feel like... well, flowing

Looking forward to hearing your feedback!
What difference do you think the feed makes for slotting in ads every few stories?
I don't think it's necessarily a business incentives/metrics thing. Rather I think a social media experience can be at most 2 of 3:

- Uncensored/unmoderated

- Encompasses all viewpoints

- Civil
One of my previous employers was interested in this problem (I'm pretty sure the list of my previous employers is a matter of public record if you're curious enough) and assigned me to look at the actual facts using raw DNS data from the network.

It was clear that somebody (presumably nation state actors, although likely not via the DNS hierarchy itself) tampers with DNS, in particular for military or "civil order" type authorities in certain countries. However, they don't usually bother using this to obtain a Web PKI certificate even though they easily could.

Can you guess why? What they want is credentials. So, hijack DNS answers for the mail server, user likely connects without TLS (or in a "fail open" setup supported by many mail clients so that TLS was abandoned once it didn't work) and you get their credentials - they don't even need to do anything, their mail client probably passively does this every few minutes while they sleep. But even for the web a lot of lay users don't type https://server.name.example/ to reach the site, they just type server.name.example and the redirect secures it... until one day it doesn't. You'd notice. I'd notice. 99% of users would not notice, especially before browsers all added affirmative warnings in the last few years.
You don't need to assume anything, since I (author of For DNSSEC) contacted you asking for your input directly. You refused to engage or correct any of the points I debunked in your original post. It's sad that you continue to advocate against securing DNS through podcasts, etc.
