Sounds rather awesome, but does it have the potential to go mainstream?
I think you forget that Gazprom is now wildly unpopular in Europe. That gas will be buyers' last choice, bought only if there's no other option. What's the value of a pipeline if the only product it carries is that unpopular?

You do know that MDN is considered to be the official documentation of the web and is backed by Google, MicroSoft, Apple, etc? Why in the world would you think it is okay to pay for something that is less than pocket change to maintain for these multi billion dollar behemoths?
You can't make package contents actually private so you have to discourage developers from depending on them in other ways.
That is not how the term is defined. Note from the article:

>>An encryption backdoor is any method that allows a user (whether authorized or not) to bypass encryption and gain access to a system.

Nothing in there about the method having to be covert.

When the Clipper Chip was proposed in the early 1990s, or when governments publicly propose encryption bypasses today, the mainstream news coverage refers to these mechanisms as "backdoors", despite no covert element in it.
Is Asia on the roadmap? I noticed it seems very focused on just US/Europe right now.
A long way of saying:

'Until then, it's not ready yet and we'll see when they actually move to PoS'* (Which at this current time, is more centralized than mining and makes the largest holders even richer).

I don't think I am going to tell someone to wait for 7+ years for something that doesn't exist yet in order to actually 'use it', unless I'm speculating on the price of the cryptocurrency.

I wrote about email privacy in general a few days ago and after talking to a few friends who have read the article they asked about actual email privacy - what happens to the content (my article was mostly focused around obscuring your real address and I don't talk about securing the contents of the emails).

The problem when approaching the issue especially with not-so-technical people is the difficulty of explaining how encryption would work in this scenario. Unlike Signal where a user A sends a message to a user B and the transmission is encrypted because they are using the same protocol, email is a bit trickier to explain. It would be like sending a Telegram message to Signal. Someone needs to do some conversion from one to another. Even when they use encryption, the methodology applied to encryption can be different.

So while I agree with "we should use encryption by default" for non-technical users, this isn't as straightforward. The top comment highlights an issue of the current "send a link to their server" approach, which is what Tutanota uses for example. Everyone moving on to encrypted emails would entail a mass education of users to use PGP keys for example, managing the keys themselves, understanding encryption at rest and the list goes on...

Finally, users are horrible at remembering/maintaining their passwords. Fully encrypted services such as Protonmail and Tutanota (I know proton doesn't encrypt the subject line) do not really offer password resets in the classical way - "Oh I forgot my password, well, here's my phone number give me a new password" or "just send me a reset link to this other email". This means that there is a very real risk of losing complete access to your email address or potentially losing a lot of emails. I believe Protonmail allowed password resets but it would wipe your inbox and Tutanota only allows reset using the account key that you have to generate and save somewhere, but again, a user would need to be aware of this and manage it well...

Great idea. We should. We won't, or at least, the majority won't.

No longer, today they said they'll work for peace and condemn the violence.
Someone refused to acquire a company for (presumably) tens of millions of dollars because a founder took a below market salary and then made up for it after a funding round with a 100k payment?

How did discovering this affect the acquirer's investment thesis? Presumably they felt like the company's growth potential and revenue was sufficient to invest many millions to own it, but then this changed their evaluation?

Not that I think it's best practices for a founder to do this with investor money, but it sounds like a just-so story.

I'm guessing there was more to it than this. It seems like VC's always have a perfect anecdotal narrative of why it's in everyone's best interest to do things that make the VC firm more money.
I think it's a little bit more complex. Offshores were established before Zelensky become a president. But it was long speculated that Zelensky's presedency was supported by oligarch Kolomoisky. Data that was leaked via Pandora papers, as far as i understand, shows us a mechanism, how financial support was provided by Kolomoisky.
Trade and economic sanctions each chip away at the Russian oligarchy, who Putin does listen to.

"Stops bombs" isn't the minimum bar for behavior affecting change.
This idea that going 20% over the recommended oil change interval will cause you to "pay a lot on the tail end" seems dubious. Could you quantify what you think this will cost a person? What exactly is the "tail end", anyways?
You're factually wrong. US tried to invade Cuba (Bay of Pigs) and then (as a result) nukes were put on the island.

I guess Russia doesn't want a neighbor on a US leash with military bases on their border either...
i was involved in the setup/config of new Sun servers for a Morgan Stanley office in India in the late 90s. everything was done ahead of time in the London HQ and shipped over to India. it was well-known by everyone on that project that there was a cash slush fund that our couriers and the employee who shepherded the gear over to India had to use at various levels to grease the wheels.

So yet another generation where AMD lags at CPU, chipset, overall system efficiency, battery life, and ports/feature support.

I get that a lot of this is that Intel has flexed its monopoly power to lock out AMD, and that OEM for laptops is a lot more centralized, but won't having shitty laptop competitiveness basically signal that your server offerings will also have shortfalls?

On AWS the AMD instances are slightly cheaper, but the networking is substantially worse.
This is brutal. Firefox is still second rate on mobile and this is what they spend money on.

This is a good point. I don't agree that PokerStars VR is better than real life and won't be until the tech can replicate details like facial expressions, but the concept of eliminating unnecessary pain points is sound. It reminds me of the gradual removal of the old skeumorphic designs in iOS. However, Mozilla Hubs isn't doing any of that. I can't find a single advantage it has over any other collaboration software, frankly.
Why haven't they covered or even sealed the canal with more conventional panels?

Solar panels are great, but this seems like a high tech solution to a simple problem.

There should be a legal requirement for companies to publicly post the salary band for every role. Otherwise, how do employees know where to start negotiations? This opaqueness only helps the employer, who already has much more leverage. Price assymetry goes against free market principles. The price of labor is like any other price of a good or service. People should know how much something costs before buying.
> If a linter is required to tell me when I'm writing a bug that is not immediately obvious, that is a failing in the framework to round those edges.

Isn't the point of static analysis (including linters) that they catch those kind of bugs? Having that little red underline (or console warning) saves a lot of pain.

Hooks have completely changed the way I write React code. It's so much easier to test and reason about. Really the only problem is that the guardrails aren't more heavily enforced.

>does anyone end up making decent RISC-V processors that could replace a desktop CPU

As of November, a large number of extensions got ratified, including the vector extension, cryptography acceleration, hypervisor support and other important features.

RISC-V is finally not missing any important feature ARM or amd64 have, and it does it with an order of magnitude lower number of instructions (equivalent but simpler, i.e. better) and with significantly higher code density.

However, test chips with the first designs implementing all of that will take time, even assuming they were tapped out right then, after confirming no last minute changes.

High performance cores depend on these extensions, so we'll begin to see them soon. We know multiple such efforts exist.

Tenstorrent has one such project, led by Jim Keller.

>Their (ARM) business model was to be sold to NVIDIA, but that didn't work out.

They intend to go public now. I recommend against buying those shares, as I do not expect ARM to turn around.
An aside:

This is one of the most hopeful take I've seen on the promise of VR, from a highly technical person:

Both. Both. Both.
In different forms, but, more or less, all of this occurred in both US and CN. And other countries too. People get butthurt a lot when someone's criticizing their country, but I don't care about countries, I care about humanity. And it was hard to overcome all the brainwashing.
This appears to be purely about politics, which is off topic.

Runway | Remote in USA and Canada | https://www.runway.com Runway replaces the operating model that almost every growing business has in spreadsheet form and transforms it into a visual model of how every part of your business is connected. This gives everyone from the CEO to the individual contributor a shared understanding of how the business works, where you’re going, and why. With this new context, your team can engage in higher-level conversations about what’s right for the company. Together, you can easily explore which levers to pull and find out, in real-time, if doing so will help you meet your goals.

Runway does all of this in a way that makes you want to dig into the data — not run away from it — through a fundamental rethinking of the core primitives of the spreadsheet. Because when you have the information you need, your team can ask better questions and make the best decisions possible.

We’ve put together an exceptional team of ex-Stripe, Coinbase, Facebook, and Twitter engineers, many of whom are experienced founders. We are backed by folks like a16z and Garry Tan from Initialized, Dylan Field from Figma, Akshay Kothari from Notion, Naval Ravikant and Elad Gil. If you’d like to learn more about our team, our culture, and what’s it like to work at Runway, please check out our Working at Runway profile along with our Values here: https://runwayhq.notion.site/Working-at-Runway-c7a9a7c8ef914...

Multiple things are happening.

1. Etherum is moving to a "Proof of Stake" at some point this year. This will mean you don't need GPU power to mine Etherum. While Bitcoin can be mined with ASIC's Etherum requires a large amount of memory (aka a GPU).

2. Chip shortage is easing

3. Intel (and others?) are announcing / releasing GPUs that are looking pretty darn good.

I am hoping to pick up a used 3080 or similar once proof of stake is announced. I expect a pretty large ebay inventory increase once this date is set.
Beacon Biosignals | Multiple Engineering Positions | NYC, Boston, Remote | Full Time

Novel treatment development for neurological disease requires the collection of meaningful measurements of brain function acquired at an unprecedented scale. Unfortunately, brain monitoring is not currently accessible, interpretable or actionable. Beacon aims to fix that, and we'd like you to help.

We're building a platform for high-throughput brain data acquisition/analytics to enable the treatment of previously untreatable neurological and psychiatric diseases. Our team is composed of neuroscientists, clinicians, open-source enthusiasts, audio/DSP/compilers nerds, and generally easy-going (but dedicated!) folks. We believe that:

- Successful product development requires rapid, early feedback from real-world users.

- Feats of technical wizardry are only useful in combination with honest, frequent, and open communication.

- A diverse team builds more robust systems and practices more meaningful science.

Interested in using Julia, TypeScript, K8s, Apache Arrow, PostgreSQL, and a few other fun tools to transform the lives of real patients?

Come hang out with us :) To apply, check out https://beacon.bio/careers.
Let me address the last paragraph of your comment.

Vast? No. Majority? Most likely.

You do not need to take my word for it, you can look for 1st hand accounts from people who were P. election observers from the opposition.

I'll at least agree that nobody believes that the party in power had the majority votes nationwide in the 2 most recent national elections.

As for the current events, most recent official (official being the key word here) nationwide polling shows 68% support for the "special war operation", which I do not believe for a second, considering how many have either relatives, friends, or at the very least business contacts across the border.

Global Income Coin | Founded by Sid Sijbrandij (GitLab, YC W15) | Software Engineer & many more | Remote | Full Time | Non Profit | $100k+

Global Income Coin a nonprofit startup striving to give every human on earth a dollar a day of income. We’re launching a new coin called GLO, intended to be used for payments just like the dollar or the euro. As adoption grows, we can slowly create additional money and give this away for free, to people directly.

Our tokenomics are the opposite of bitcoin. When demand for bitcoin grows, the price per coin rises because the number of coins is fixed. With Global Income Coin, we print new coins instead, stabilizing the coin. The new coins are distributed as basic income.

We're hiring for a variety of roles to help realize this vision:

- Software Engineer

- Algorithmic Trading

- Head of Econometrics

- Head of Community

- Head of Growth

- Lead Recruiter

- Lead Writer

- Motivated individuals with a vision for how to grow GLO

Regardless of the discussion of what the actual point is, can VR designers finally understand that graphics CANNOT be this bad. It means instant dismissal.

In their free time, people watch Pixar movies and play near-photo realistic games. And have been for 1-2 decades. You seriously cannot get away with this absolute garbage. It's late 1980s VR quality. It's below second life, which is ancient.

Up the bar. Create a world where people actually want to be or this will never work.

Hi, My name is Evan. Over the past few years I have been responsible for building, deploying and maintaining the software to run a post Ion-Exchange metrology instrument for measuring surface and deep stress in chemically strengthened transparent substrates. This instrument and accompanying software is deployed to and used by customers to determine the Ion-Exchange process success. The application functions in both single measurement human operational mode as well as interfacing with an automated assembly line capable of measuring 10,000 parts per day, per instrument. This application has grown since its initial deployment and was completely rewritten in the past 2 years by myself and the team that I lead. We migrated from vb.Net 4.6.1, WinForms to .netcore3.1, WPF using Prism.MVVM. In doing this we completely revamped our code libraries, compartmentalizing everything into separate generic nuget package libraries for easy to reuse code. The software has now grown into supporting 3 distinct instruments used not only in QC abroad but also in internal R&D as well.
