This is a massive over-generalization that pretty much only applies to the suburbs that were built out in the 1950s and 1960s mostly in the southern half of the country. As those suburbs have densified over the decades (where allowed by law, so not the southwest) some of them have become pretty darn walk-able.

Show HN: Daftpage new feature – Custom code block
Hi, I just released the Custom Code block in Daftpage.
You can now embed custom code on your landing page. This is very convenient for external tools integrations (e.g: Tally. so, Youtube video, etc...)
Here is a demo page of a Tally. so form embedded in a Daftpage site.

Any feedback is super welcome!

Thanks

I think you’re right but also showing where a more secure design could solve it just like we’ve seen for SQL injection. The problem is that the first parameter can either be a format string or data.

If the signature was different so it only used instances of a FormatString class to get dynamic behavior, this problem would be avoided, but I’m sure a lot of people would complain about the extra typing.

What’d be really cool would be if Java supported something like this Rust lifetime hack to let that be implicit where you could disable dynamic functionality for strings created after startup.

The injustice and unfairness. You have someone like Trump and other rich people than get away with murder, and Assange gets done for whistleblowing.
I recently came across a recording [0] of Prof. Dr. Jordan Peterson telling his students about Hitler's goals towards the end of the war. His point was that, while Nazi Germany was losing WW2, why would you spend so many resources to find, group up and then systematically kill millions of people? Not just that but those killed could've been used (speaking from Nazi Germany perspective, obviously not my own!) for slave labor instead. Why waste those resources? Thst professor speculated that instead of winning the war or losing and coming to a peaceful end, Hitler's goal was to seed mass mayhem and as much destruction, pain and violence as (in-)humanly possible.
Shortly after I read this article [1] about an American journalist that found out about him being on Obama's Kill List, officially called Disposition Matrix, from one of his sources. His own government was trying to kill him with drones at least five times in a short period of time. No due process. No explanation. Nothing. They just wanted to take him off the board. He went on to sue Obama et al and the judge basically told him "hey, this Kill List is out of judicial control, they can literally kill anyone they want. Oh and if you think those targets on the Kill List are handpicked by senior officials based on clear and rigorous evidence? Nah, it's based on metadata algorithms. This made me think, if the US Government is trying to kill journalists of their own country, are they really trying to "win" the war? To disperse democracy? To improve Middle Eastern people's lives? No, they are trying to create mayhem.

> Scala programmers generally frown on programmers that want to use it as a better Python and I think it should be the opposite.

It's hard to make generalizations like this that are meaningful. There are a number of different Scala ecosystems, as you probably know. Spark is really a world of its own. Lightbend's libraries form their own ecosystem, as do Typelevel's and ZIO's.

My own opinion is that using algebraic data types (sealed traits, final case classes) with a sprinkling of type classes (implicits) where needed is pretty easy to work with, and that's the style that Typelevel is using. It is mostly inline with Li's "Least Power" post, though using IO pervasively instead of Future.

Is Typelevel's approach a better Python? I don't know. I don't really know what that means, and I'm not convinced that Python is a great model to follow. I see you posting along similar lines in many Scala threads on HN, so you seem quite invested in the language. I think it would help make your point clearer if wrote up a bit more of your thoughts, perhaps as a blog post.

Deep learning has nothing to do with "science" and the last algorithmic advances that enabled it happened rather more than 10 years ago: the neocognitron, in 1979, the Long-Short Term Memory recurrent neural nets in 1995, backpropagation (for neural network training) in 1986, etc.

In general, all the interesting work that enabled today's deep learning boom happened towards the end of the 20th century and recent advances are primarily owed to increases in computational power and availability of data sets.

Says not me, but Geoff Hinton:

Geoffrey Hinton: I think it’s mainly because of the amount of computation and the amount of data now around but it’s also partly because there have been some technical improvements in the algorithms. Particularly in the algorithms for doing unsupervised learning where you’re not told what the right answer is but the main thing is the computation and the amount of data.

The algorithms we had in the old days would have worked perfectly well if computers had been a million times faster and datasets had been a million times bigger but if we’d said that thirty years ago people would have just laughed.

> Let’s introduce another scenario: Imagine that the gifted boy has a total utility of 80, and the disabled boy has a total utility of 40.

The thing is that day-to-day life doesn't provide those "scores" when it comes to humans and their interactions, life is not a video-game (even though we certainly do try our best at transforming it into that).

Writing down that one could assign scores in such a scenario is normative, i.e. we take for granted that such scores are possible and, even more (that's what makes it normative, imo) we somehow impose on the reader the notion that he/she should regard this score-setting as a fact of life, as normal, at the limit that the reader herself should join the game of assigning scores to human actions.
The solution to a broken system is not to replace it with another equally broken system. It is to replace it with a better one. The argument from people who are skeptical of the entire premise of smart contracts is that it looks to them like a worse not better system.

I am a software engineer. I know full well what it takes to design a well functioning software system. I also know that software tends to ossify processes. Anyone who has ever tried to work against the software of another business knows how straight jacketed that can get. Putting these together my only reasonable conclusion is that smart contracts look like a terrible idea and I would never in a million years trust one.
This is all related to Edward Snowden the whistle blower, as far as funding goes, I believe KimDotCom was involved and the powers that be managed to crucify him already. I think if and when the US gets the opportunity to bring Assange to trial it will be in a closed court and the outcome will be already determined. Someone has to pay for exposing US government crimes.

But is this true?

some people have always looked for alternatives throughout history, but very few of them have become popular, most of them were a failure and a bunch of them completely destroyed societies, sometimes for centuries.

It's very well documented that the arrest of Assange took a lot of orchestration.
>impassioned / balanced list of pros and cons?

If I recall correctly, the thesis of wikileaks from their beginning was that leaks increase the cost and complexity to governments keeping their actions secret therefore providing a sort of forcing function to reduce both the number and scope of dishonorable actions carried out in secret.

Wikileaks is best understood as a force vector in a system. It's possible to have an opinion on the idea of leaking as a force for good. And that opinion could be conditional or even strong disagreement. The strength and direction of someone's opinion on that will determine how their opinion of Assange is further influenced. Influenced by the ancillary topics like sources of leaks, sources of funding, topics leaked about and editorial control exercised over what is released.

People's opinion on wikileaks in general can change after seeing who takes the "W"s and who takes the "L"s, and it's worthwhile to cultivate a feedback loop where your opinion of wikileaks is downstream from your opinion of leaking in general. Frankly, I don't care whether he is a good guy or a bad guy. I'm not having him around for Christmas, he's a force vector in a system. I have an opinion on that force vector.

It's worth also remembering that good/bad is different than legal/illegal, and that our standards for government includes the expectation of just due process even for those that are obviously monstrous criminals.
Is this not equivalent to medical triage? Those who will die anyway, and those who will live anyway, get no immediate treatment (apart from morphine). Those who will not survive without treatment, get the resources.

Thus: move to the city, as the gifted child will most likely do just fine in life. Have dinner with the depressed friend, because the happy friend will enjoy the concert anyway.

Seems perfectly consistent with even simplistic utilitarianism.
It's interesting because neither helping the strongest students, nor helping the weakest, has any reason to be maximally beneficial to society. From pure utilitarian point of view, we should first help those students who would get the most benefit per hour of help. That probably means the middling ones who just need a hand to get them over a hurdle, not the checked-out ones and not the superstars.
Taken another way, we're condemning our own current lack of imagination, understanding.

> Isn't that always true for any Firefox version?

No, it has not been that way. For a long time Google Chrome was the only browser that had sandboxing by using separate processes for each tab (essentially).

See: https://www.google.com/googlebooks/chrome/small_04.html

For a long time, Firefox did not isolate different different websites in different processes. Today, Firefox has something similar to process sandboxing afaik but it took them some time to do it because their browser has a very old codebase and it took time for them to disentangle everything to provide this feature.

See: https://hacks.mozilla.org/2021/05/introducing-firefox-new-si...

Over the years, Chrome's sandbox has not stood still. It has become more and more sophisticated with various other features added (e.g. sandboxing in Linux using seccomp BPF -- e.g. https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/0e94f26e8/d... ). BTW web searching reveals that firefox is using seccomp too now. However, I don't know the details.

So it would be interesting for someone to have a comparison between the two today.

However, with RLBox, Firefox has added a very powerful sandboxing technology that goes beyond process isolation.

Its quite impressive and I do think that Firefox can now have grounds to argue that it's more secure than Chrome.
I highly recommend The Computational Beauty of Nature by Gary William Flake (1998).
This is the update I've been waiting for since the pandemic started!

Because obviously, if you can't imagine how to do something then it must be impossible.

Seems like the ancients were much better at making tools than they were at marketing them.

Granted, their market was much smaller to begin with, who needs a calculator when their whole existence consists of farming and having kids.

A small group today could prototype a very advanced set of AR glasses, but if they don't try to sell it, it would never be "discovered" by society. Future archeologists would say "this shouldn't exist".

On that note, there are so many people these days and so much information that the chance of someone else creating the same thing and successfully popularizing it is much higher.
While that is definitely a good theoretical argument but in practice it seem to be the case that most of the (non 0day) vulnerabilities that get exploited in the wild are the ones that have solid public exploits, and it does also seem to have effect on how fast it starts to be exploited.

Even if that was true, knowing that a number of large projects are using this lib I'm not sure if it is unreasonable to ask to at least make an attempt to reach out so they can asses their exposure.

Great example. I would add here a problem that blockchain solution does not solve and I might say it even makes it hard to fix (but I might be wrong as I don't work with blockchain so maybe I am missing something):

This Smart contract about fixing the park is a virtual thing. But if someones does this kind of job then in real life there is usually someone else who will accept and sign that the work was done accordingly with the requirements.

First, I don't understand how this works.

If everybody in the neighborhood needs to accept the work and sign it then I think it will be very difficult to be a contractor. Because you are suddently at the mercy of all residents to accept the work which is a nightmare as everybody could have a small things to change.

Let's say the residents there will delegate the acceptance to one single person. This case gets more interesting. What if the persone they delegate this acceptance is corrupted and will sign and accept the work but after 2 months the work will break. How do the residents recovery the loss? Will they go to the _centralised_ court? Will they go to the _centralised_ state to help them?
And here goes the problem: what if the crypto dream gets implemented globally so no central authority. What then?
Yeah, this seems like a justification of the 'stupid consumer' advertising-driven model of human behaviour. Human clicks on ragebait, so it must like ragebait. Until it starts avoiding platforms that send it ragebait, then the human is clearly depressed. Because why else would it avoid it's source of ragebait, which is clearly the only thing it cares about?

I've found in general that as platforms like Youtube and Facebook got more optimised for immediate feedback that's supposedly all about my preferences, they became less pleasant overall user experiences. Is it too much to ask for an AI that at least tries to help humans move towards self-actualization? I'm not saying I'd expect it to work out of the box, but some evidence our long-term interests are actually aligned would be nice.

What exactly does this mean for Julian Assange? I mean, in terms of this repetitive circle of going to court and then coming back empty handed.

How often can Assange's defense team appeal these decisions and at what point can we expect the "final" decision to be made? E.g. Julian is either released or he is extradited.
My wife has a Dell touch screen that's running Ubuntu. Every time we're looking at memes or family photos together on some social platform, she reaches out to the screen and pinch-zooms and it just works. The utility is obvious. I just think, I can't believe this is possible.

But also, I'm a home-row person and I feel naturally annoyed by the additional touch interface at the same time, just out of ergonomic idealism. For example, there's no home row for touch screens that I'm aware of, which means the resting position is effectively going to mandate either contortion and body leverage, or some amount of strain. I feel like we'll all laugh about how bad touch screens were, someday. But until then, her laptop also does something cool (and not exactly strain-inducing, really) that mine doesn't.
