>The problem with a single, rigid configuration is that you can't satisfy all user types.

From a user point of view, the problem is that satisfying beginners will get more click/impression/downloads/etc.. If the company is managed by accountants, you end up with products that get shittier every version.
This is so cynical it overshoots the mark and lands way out there on the other side.

Why make art that nobody wants? Because it's fun. I'm by no means a creative, but I've got a folder full of terrible drawings, loads of google docs of stories that don't go anywhere that I wrote while bored/drunk/high/inspired/depressed, and five different game prototypes on Github. Nobody's ever going to see most of them. This is fine. Doing creative things is intrinsically fun if you've got an itch to scratch.

Why do people make 30 indie games a day? Same reason my mum spent 100 hours making an anatomically accurate wire sculpture of a crab to sell for $40 to a university to hang up in the aquaculture wing. It's fun. It doesn't detract from her work - she's retired, and even when she was working, she used different skills and drew from a different pool of resources.

This is from Jeff Vogel, who's averaged about one indie game a year since 1996. I think part of his attitude comes from working for 26 years and seeing the transition from smallish studios to a gigantic winner-takes-all market. It's certainly going to be harder to make money as an indie developer now, with raised expectations and a lot more competition, and there is some value in warning people about that.

On a final note, society is also... looking pretty good right now? We came up with multiple vaccines for a global pandemic in record time, most of the roads near my house are okay, life's improving steadily in the developing world, my state government is going on a massive spree to buy more trains and remove level crossings, and I could fix a small pothole if you gave me a sack of cold asphalt and a fencing bar. There are some problems with inequality, but they seem to be tied to governments abandoning full employment policies, and I'm sure people will notice eventually.
Your logic is completely flawed. If there is a super AI with real intelligence that understands problems and codes it up for you, why wouldn't it be possible to go one step further and solve problems on its own? Why do you think that a human programmer has to feed a problem statement to the AI for it to work?
If you call a local business you can usually get that sort of information without logging into facebook.
It IS unusual to worry about type signatures as a mathematician. Sounds to me like your PhD topic was closer to computer science than math? Or at least constructive mathematics ;-)
Both cut short for me.
The issue is that auto mods are stupid and heavy handed, and backed up by authoritarian mods making conversation impossible.

I get it, and I don’t have to keep attempting to contribute to it.
> Facebook is a shadow of what it use to be after running off everyone.

Yes, everyone ran off, leaving only 1.9B subscribers.
I think this pandemic has proved how sane the idea of a Metaverse would be.

Imagine meeting someone online, dating or friendship, you put on a lightweight VR headset and get transported to a replicated NYC rooftop bar, where loads of people from around the world are sitting, drinking and chatting. Socializing with a date or a group of people at the comfort of your home, going on outings, inviting your friends to your digital house, work meetings in a digital office instead of Zoom (I already seen companies doing this; VR meetings). People will be able to form romantic relationships and stronger friendships from across the world. Zoom, Skype, Discord will seem like old world relics.

It's like the appeal of World of Warcraft when it was a its peak, but not gaming - not appealing to just gamers. Appealing to everyone who's open to socializing online.
AFAIK it’s still pro-atheism. And Ron Paul was basically the only Republican not in bed with the Halliburtons of the world, which was considered progressive in 2008.
This article goes into a lot more detail. It looks like it was just two lines of code. But apparently the codebase actually had backdoors already present. His employer, MSLA doesn't come out looking good. After winning a few lotteries Eddie actually reported the security hole and suggested a fix. It was ignored.

I think they lost users much much earlier.

It's just that most users they lost went from "I use Facebook" to "I don't want to use Facebook, but kinds still have to" (because friends, family etc.).

All people below 40y I know which have Facebook fall more or less in the second category...
TikTok has tons of ragebait farming material. The fact that you're not seeing what you don't likely highlights the effectiveness of their algorithm.
After having typed out a response, your comment just looks like bad faith foot dragging.

This is Germany. Lots of software companies already do this type of work with SOC2 or FedRamp contracts.

A vuln is typically reported to NIST and assigned a CVE record. That 3rd party system allows for embargo, publish, dispute, etc. If a manufacturer denies that is is a vuln, the researcher can release their work and malicious actors could prove the manufacturer wrong. I work in cybersecurity, so this isn’t new to me. Maybe it is new to you… ?

These companies already have reasons not to look for vulns. IMHo they need more incentives (eg. Regulator/economic pressure) to look for them.

My guess is that this rule is being pushed in the aftermath of Log4j, which is a publicly identified CVE/vuln, but which is compiled/linked into other products. Any proprietary product which uses a known vuln in their software supply chain should have to either fix it (by releasing a patch) or make a public statement that the upstream vuln does not create a software vuln downstream or suffer liability. This already happens with companies/products that do this with large contracts.

The Missouri Governor is a political stooge, but his Department of Justice is prosecuting what the journalist did after he took the PII that was embedded in the page. We will have to wait to see if that was legal. I suspect he took a SSN that was in the page and used it to fill in a web form, which could be prosecuted as fraud. That would be an example where good faith efforts by security researchers should be exempted from prosecution, but has no relevance to this German proposal.

Your complaints seem to be extremely defensive/reticent. I think such posture is only useful if you also consider the value
+1, just call them.

But treat them like humans, and not a fucking strip mine.
Somewhere along the way, Reddit (and HN?) drifted SO left-wing that it started non-ironically referring to “libertarian” and “far-right” as interchangeable.

“Far-right atheists”. Okay.
cue joke about cryptocurrencies being self-funding bug bounties
No.

Just call them, don't invade their privacy, unless they're just meat to you. In which case, change industries.

You really have to try it before you pan it. It's a new class of computing. Google Cardboard and other non 6DOF VR systems don't count.
tummy.com just shut down a few months ago and sold our old IPv4 swamp addresses and the ASN to him.
A metric shitload or an imperial shitload?
It's kind of like how EMACS isn't a text editor, it's a platform for writing editor macros (Editor MACroS). Nyxt isn't a browser, it's a platform for writing browser macros ($CLEVER_ACRONYM).
The hot garbage app makes almost as much money as Facebook, so... There's that...
This is defacto not true.
Aren't all current tech valuations still playing chicken with future growth expectations? So when sentiment with regards to them changes, it compounds back on the current price.

But the whatever% is after hours trading, so we'll see what the market does tomorrow when it's open.
I looked at your post, then at these Twitter threads recommended in the other comments https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30187898

I think "something about not checking signatures right" is about as deep as I'm going to understand this.
IRC won't come back for the masses, it's UX doesn't allow it.
It's about caffeine and carbonation as much as sugar. Caffeine and sugar are highly addictive substances, with obvious habit-forming potential. Carbonation is a unique effect that stimulates and satisfies people, and probably provides a physical "hook" for addiction, like how many heroin addicts crave the feeling of the needle.
>The -I flag only considers text files. This radically speeds up recursive greps.

I use ripgrep when I need better speed. I've pretty much switched to ripgrep these days, but still use GNU grep when I'm answering questions on stackoverflow, reddit, etc.

>ABC flags

Good to also know about `--group-separator` and `--no-group-separator` when there are multiple non-contiguous matches. Helps to customize the separator or remove them altogether. Sadly, these options are still not explained in `man grep` on Ubuntu. You'll have to use `info grep` or the online manual to find them.

Options I use often that is not mentioned in the article:

* `-c` to count the number of matches

* `-F` for fixed string matching

* `-x` to match whole lines

* `-P` for PCRE (as mentioned in many comments here)

* `--color=auto` this is part of command name alias, so it is always used

I wrote a book as well on "GNU grep and ripgrep": https://github.com/learnbyexample/learn_gnugrep_ripgrep Free to read online.
It's not clear to me whether this is a dig at capitalists or not.
Google hasn't really ever been a place to be. Search isn't a place to hang out. Google seems more likely to hang around a long time, it's products are utilitarian and win based mostly on scale at this point.
Note that it's hard to quantify this evenly between ISPs, because isp A might have a hundred gig port to an ix and meet all the major cdns and Netflix and Google (YouTube video traffic) over the ix exclusively, while ISP B might have also a hundred gig port but also set up many PNIs for direct cross connect and peering with the largest cdns and sources of traffic.

Meaning that ISP B will need to upgrade its ix port at a much later date relative to subscriber count, but its PNIs and cross connects are opaque and hard to know about from a public/external third party perspective.
Do I really need to do Home Assistant Operating System? It stresses me out that this is not just some packages I can install.
Still figuring out if this is satire or not... A lot of people still have strong feelings here
Nautical shitload, obviously, it's measured by the fucktonne
There are additional factors.

Teslas are on average substantially newer than the average US passenger car fleet and thus have significantly more safety features and driver assistance tech, are better maintained, etc.

If Tesla compared only to vehicles of similar age and class (Audi/BMW/Mercedes etc) their stats would be much less favorable.
Glad it helped. :)
Should've sold it to Starlink, maybe if they had some more addresses they wouldn't be using CGNAT.
Last I looked, ARIN charged $550 (one time fee) to issue an ASN, on top of the recurring fee. Not expensive if you're serious, but if you're a hobbyist and just need a 32-bit ASN number, you may as well explore cheaper alternatives. Based on my own research, that would cover 20+ years of fees for some LIRs in the RIPE region.
Desperation move. Too little much too late.
It didn't ask me for a login (?)
I don't need your sympathy

I want my human rights recognised and respected by the state legislators which have exempted themselves from taking this experimental vaccine
I really enjoy carbonated beverages, the whole sensory package the bubbles bring to the drinking experience. I have had an easy experience substituting the soda I drank as a child for a more healthy carbonated beverage.
> I've never liked them because they're too sugary

This is the crux of the matter. Whether something is too sugary is a matter of taste and habit. It tastes too sugary to you, but great to other people.
I did one thing in the last years: wake up early, and directly go for a walk to the bakery. 45min ~ it was surprisingly mentally refreshing and after 3 days my body got a natural alarm clock as if the reflex of walking was now preset.
Yes, unfortunately I bought in 2 days ago. The market is irrational. Facebook literally missed its projections by 3% and loses 0.15% of its active users (mostly due to things opening up) and investors panic. Good time to buy in.
BIS80 is a structural steel who's formula is owned by Bisalloy and produced under license by steel manufacturers.

BIS80 has a yield strength in excess of 620 Mpa, and an ultimate tensile strength in the range 720 to 930 Mpa.

See here for more info https://www.bisalloy.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/BISAL...

BIS100 has a yield strength around the 890 MPa mark, and an ultimate tensile strength in the range 940 to 1100 MPa.

See here for more info https://www.bisalloy.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/BISAL...

Nylon is lighter, but it also loses about 20% of its tensile strength when wet.
I think 2014. Just by looking at things like wall posts on my personal page, around 2015, things went downhill and after 2016, it became really quiet. Almost none of my friends (23 to 33) use Facebook anymore except for the occasional photo dumps. Most are on instagram but even the number of stories posted has gone down as well.
Ask HN: What do you do and what's your consulting rate?
I'm curious what various services people provide in tech and what their consulting rate is...

Can you share?

It would be interesting to see the highest paying fields.
Yes. The skill and value of top tier engineers has been increasing exponentially for years now.
Is that really true though? Do you have any sources to verify that? I'm from England and AOL felt pretty pervasive here.
Every one of these attacks reads more like a chemical process than a hack. “First, synthesize o2 by borrowing an oxygen molecule…”
I use uBlacklist to remove sites like this from search results. It's pretty great. All the GitHub mirrors, the StackOverflow scrapers, any site that requires an account to view the thing I searched for... one click to never see these ad factories again.
Free products sooner or later end up becoming walled gardens unless it is open source and self hosted.
I dunno. I've got it, it works fine. I really doubt the constraining factors are with network load or regulation, though; if you can source the components for a couple hundred thousand routers and radar dishes, I'm sure the rest of the industry is dying to hear where you're looking.
Plenty of people don't drink coffee at all. It's actually higher than I would have expected.
same. I wish Amazon would allow rental of a movie for 2 weeks so I could watch a film in small segments. I no longer rent movies at all because often the running time is too much to complete in just 2 days.
Pretty much all vr games are just an illusion of freedom. Physically walking is rarely particularly useful aside from idle curiosity of getting a slightly different vantage point or getting behind cover in a shooter. Real movement happens on point and click teleportation or some of the other fake locomotion schemes. I don't think I've ever moved with any sort of... conviction. It's always just a couple steps in any direction, almost always fairly slowly.

Stationary games like beat saber don't count.
For reference the S&P average P/E is ~25.96.

FB at it's worst is growing much faster than average, it's balance sheet is healthier than almost every other company beside MAAG, and yet it is valued below average.
$320M is the kind of money where it's sufficient motivation for organized crime to simply kidnap and torture major crypto company officers/techies or individual crypto holders to force them to do whatever needs to be done.

The reason why it's not done as much for ordinary businesses is that you can't just force someone to surrender $320M worth of stocks, real estate or wire transfers and actually keep that, it's reversible and traceable so most of it will be reversed and the rest traced. At best you can expect briefcases of cash ransom which is physically limited to much smaller amounts (e.g. it's simply impossible for a person to carry $320M in cash or fit it in a random car) and still needs laundering, and as the payoff is less lucrative then it's not worth the risk compared to other activities like trafficking drugs. Crypto, on the other hand, has this possibility to just force a large transaction and actually get away with it - so I'm just wondering why we aren't seeing cases of violently forced crypto transfers; perhaps they're just kept under wraps.
exploit on Solana side, minted wrap ether and moved that over the bridge.

only the solana side was partially uncollateralized

fascinating hack actually
Yes, these are different hooks with different parameters, but these are triggered by the same function[0].

When the function is called, all of these hooks are triggered. To identify what the user was doing (post creation on the first time? post updated? is the status being updated?), unless you have many conditions (potentially nested ifs), it's a cumbersome job.

For example, a user wants a workflow every time the post is sent to the Trash. When a post is sent to the Trash, three things happen:

- A hook is triggered because it's sent to the Trash.

- The updated status one is also triggered (Published -> Trash).

- The Updated post one is also triggered, because yes, this is an update.

Yes, these are different hooks, but these do come from the same function. We tested two other plugins similar to ours and found minimal automation capabilities; we speculate this is because of the reasons I just exposed.

If you check out the source code for wp_insert_post(), you'll find many do_action(). When clicking the "Add Post" button, the post is created at that moment (so it can reserve the permalink, etc.); by the time you save the post for the first time, in reality, it's being updated, not saved for the first time as one would believe.

This is just a single example, but these software design decisions make it not that straightforward to create an automation plugin. By the way, that function calls many others inside, functions that trigger hooks by themselves; therefore, you'll have many workflows trigger attempts many times per second, just by saving the post.

EDIT: Clarity.

Grammatical language, e.g. with subclauses, does appear from evidence thus far to be unique to humans, although whalesong is complex enough that it might yet be found there.

I gather that, since the "universal grammatical structure" was promoted, languages have been discovered that are said to lack any such forms. "Said to", because very few people are reporting on them.

Sorry, for sources I would be doing the same DDGing you will.
Not every person drinks coffee. Having ~1 cup per person as an average doesn't stand out as being odd to me.

I noticed it in the examples too, I’m speculating wildly that the ray cast is even angular steps rather than pinhole projection. Totally reasonable to not correct it, IMO, I’ve long thought we should have more non-linear cameras in games.
Did the cavemen finally rewind all of history to finally rediscover while we organized around justice, legislation and law enforcement or we're still waiting for a few more fortunes lost ?
They don't have as much of a network effect either.
I think dannyw meant something like this:

# This function is defined by the system
def validSignature(sig):
return false

# This function is defined by the system
def isSignaturefromGuardian(sig):
if sig.validator == "guardian":
return true
return false

# A bug in the system compared both return values
if validSignature(tx.sig) == signatureFromGuardian(tx.sig):
approve()

```
Aside from oversubscription only a fraction of any customer's traffic will traverse the IX. The ratio will depend on who Starlink is peering with on the SIX (not necessarily everyone) and the traffic flows to/from those ASN's.

That said there are some very significant content peers present on the SIX: Akamai, Amazon, Apple, Edgecast, Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Valve, among others. Hurricane Electric is also there and has an open peering policy despite being a very large ISP with a significant percentage of Internet routes and traffic.

The percolator is coming back into fashion. The two issues main issues are caffeine concentration and taste: a slow drip gets you crazy strong Vietnamese style coffee, a percolator can do some of that but you don't want to burn it.
Insightful comment. Do you have some books or resource recommendation to learn more on this topic?

There are a lot of very emotionally charged statements there and if you scroll to the bottom, you see the actual purpose of the site:

With a form to send a petition to the US FCC to regulate this “radiation”.
Thanks for sharing. From your and noah_buddy's comments, it looks like it was a treat from childhood that stuck.

My parents forbade me from soda growing up, but my cousin once snuck me some sugary orange pop once (I didn't like the fizz when I first tried it, but I liked it more when I tried it again). I still have a preference for it sometimes due to the memories (along with root beer, which I also tried when younger) if it's free, though just a small cup. I never tried Coca-Cola or Pepsi until an abnormally older age, so that's probably why these two never stuck for me.
At first I thought this was about the recent "controversy" on the postfix users mailing list, wherein several times in ~6 months people have asked that the site properly support HTTPS and been shouted down by angry people who say that it's pointless; Wietse and Viktor have refused to say anything more than "our hosting agreement doesn't include HTTPS."
why don't you just use Google search for checking such info as restaurant hours, direction etc? Much easier than checking on FB I suppose.
depends on whether you've finished your free articles for the month
Yeah, at least the stablecoins are putting the money into safe things like Chinese commercial paper
I think you mean the pre-viagra days.
I'd assume it's all included. There is more than 1 way to brew coffee, and even those there is a standard for it, there would be no way to normalize consumption to it.
