There are over a dozen people involved with this, disregarding them all because of one controversial incident with one of them feels a bit extreme. In terms of methodology it does not strike me as very Ouija boardy as all patient input is in the form of Yes/No responses [0];

> We also validated the Yes/No responses in a question paradigm, in which the answers were assumed to be known to the patient.

> Finally, in an auditory speller paradigm, the patient could select letters and words using the previously trained Yes/No approach.

As somebody working in the German medical sector, I'm also pretty certain that the BfArM ain't casually greenlighting scam brain surgeries/implants. Nor am I sure how any of the researchers are supposed to scam the patient, or their family, with this?

Competing with Nvidia on Gaming GPU wasn't something Intel were keen to do after their failure with i740. The Gaming market wasn't as big, and you are ultimately competing on Driver optimisation, not on actual hardware.

CUDA and Deep Learning may have started in 2007 and 2010. But their usage, or their revenue potential was unclear back then. Even in 2015, Datacenter revenue was less than one eighth of gaming revenue. And rumours of Google AI Processor ( now known as TPU ) started back in 2014 when they started hiring. In 2021, Datacenter is roughly equal to Gaming revenue, and are expected to exceed them in 2022.

Intel sort of knew GPGPU could be a threat by 2016 / 17 already. That is why they started assembling a team, and hired Raja Koduri in late 2017. But as with everything Intel in post Pat Gelsinger era, Intel was late to react. From Smartphone to Foundry Model and now GPGPU.

Actually its exactly that easy. The platform holders cannot offer something to content providers that is outside the boundaries of the law nor use a court to compel them to break the law.

Making it the law is about the only thing that would work because incentives are otherwise inherently misaligned.

I don’t disagree with your post, but it’s worth noting that most of Unity’s revenue comes from Unity Ads and their other services. Software licenses/subscriptions is only a quarter of their revenue.
If a solution has been working for 20 years, then by Lindy effect there is a good chance it will be relevant in 20 years as well. Basically an old but still actively used software or principle implies that it has being compatible with a lot of new things in past and, as such, is rather universal.

With new software one does not know if it is the one that will survive challenges from even newer software.

Email is one I keep coming back to when I try to picture a future that runs on blockchain tech.

It seems like even if there are enough situations where the zero-trust nature proves to make sense to users, it would be silly for them to all use the same chains. Why deal with the overhead and transaction costs? Why wouldn't there be as many chains as their are email providers, and then most of them would only have value insomuch as the things running on them have value? So more like "new way of formalizing coalitions and joint ventures and partnerships where no single partner has full control" than "investment vehicle" or "foundational infrastructure for the whole world."

Email, by being a protocol vs a single implementation, has outlasted many email service providers and will probably outlast many more. Many of those service providers were killed by new entrants that could do it cheaper or better - so it seems crazy to expect otherwise-productive things to remain on these hideously expensive trendy chains of the moment.
People are fine with centralized systems that make sense and brings value.

To me the best part of decentralized systems is that they allow for centralized sub-systems to emerge organically, instead of being decided top-down.

For instance, I don't think that when launching the first internet nodes we would have anticipated that certs should have centralized entities, it happened that it made more sense that way once we saw the issues emerging from actual use.
Had a similarly frustrating experience trying to connect a new gaming PC to a LG Ultrafine 4K.

The all-USB C aspect of the monitor was fine when I only used it with my Macbook, but made it terribly painful to use with anything else.

In the end I found a HDMI to USB C dongle which worked, also included a plain USB 2.0 cable for audio.

Apparently I was ‘lucky’ to have the 4K rather than 5K, because, from my research at the time, nobody knew of any dongles or cables that would support the latter at full resolution (I think this is the same issue as in your article)

The comic strip "Nancy" has been in continuous publication since the discovery of atomic fission; at the moment produced by Olivia Jaimes.

https://www.gocomics.com/nancy/

I find it amusing once in a while. It's a daily strip in syndication, which means that it's sold by subscription (to newspapers rather than individuals), usually as part of a package deal. It isn't funny every day.

A more interesting question-- perhaps this is the actual question posed by TFA -- is, "Why are daily comic strips still like this?" Or, "What does syndication even mean anymore, and who the hell is subscribing?"

Thomas Piketty's "The western elite is preventing us from going after the assets of Russia’s hyper-rich" is another angle, focusing more on the West.

Wow, a fan here on hn! Belt drive is possible but it makes for a heavier bike as it usually is paired with an internal geared hub. Also all of the innovation in cycling where maximum drivetrain efficiency is the goal is still firmly footed in chain drive (shimano/sram/campagnolo and a growing group of others). Also right now it’s not a priority as we have a lot of open projects: accessories, electric, scaling manufacturing.

Mid drive on the other hand would be a more challenging project because of the space and packaging constraints of our design. But, rear hub motors, which is what we’re using, have improved a lot recently; they are lighter, 2 speed, quieter and are considered to be comparable now. You also have a far more flexible upgrade path when technology improves as it’s not tied to the frame.

Electric Helix is going to be pretty ground breaking because up until now, the only other compact option was Brompton which is front wheel drive.

So maybe the dream bike is still possible, just a bit different.
The article is co-authored by two co-founders of a supply chain management solution company called DLT Labs that uses blockchain somewhere. I checked out their solution on their website.

The product looks like any other web app. Is it really using a blockchain somewhere at the backend to store something? May be. It is certainly using some standard RDBMS to store the structured data. There's no way you can store all of that you see in the screenshots on a blockchain.

So what it is that is actually being stored on a blockchain? Not clear.

Is it possible that they use the word blockchain to get free PR? May be. I don't want to judge.

The product page doesn't have the word blockchain anywhere.
https://www.dltlabs.com/platforms/asset-track

DL Freight, the product used by Walmart Canada also doesn't mention the word blockchain anywhere. There is just one mention of a shared ledger.
https://www.dltlabs.com/platforms/asset-track/dl-freight

Did find blockchain on this page
https://www.dltlabs.com/platforms/ecosystem

But immediately you see this

"And because its built using distributed ledger technology, every transaction is 100% auditable, immutable, and visible only to permissioned users – helping to create a genuine layer of trust between the parties that transact on the platform."
It refers to permissioned users, so it's not a blockchain. Which is supposed to be permissionless. They aren't even claiming. They are calling it a distributed ledger.

In fact I have noticed this even with R3 Corda. The enterprise blockchain provider. They use the term distributed ledger to describe their offering, not blockchain. But all the marketing material and PR pieces always tout blockchain in the headline.

If something is permissioned, trustful and centralised, is it even a blockchain?
Forums were read/write applications that should be part of "web 2.0", and they existed in the early 2000s. Then Gmail came along, which was the first "web 2.0" application, and eventually HTML5 came around the corner, which truly meant "web 2.0" was now ubiquitous. The mega corps took over the internet but in my experience that didn't happen until there were at least three popular "web2" definitions.

These terms are meaningless and arbitrary. I've never heard of popularized "read only" websites, even in the late 90s websites had things like guest books where you could leave a comment.

I'm also not sure about the legal ownership one might derive from the blockchain. Going by legal standards, I don't think you own anything unless you sign a sales agreement that says the cryptocurrency exchange means something related to ownership.
I thought it was interesting that neither Facebook nor Google were listed
Could you switch to attack mode and publish your own story/blog/podcast? This way you wouldn't need to react to an existing article but present the story from afresh.
I will partially disagree with this. Irreparable hardware/software changes like this should absolutely be banned, however, I disagree that we should dictate speech, with speech in this case being how the software was written. An analogy would be telling people they can't protest vs. shooting them when they try to.
Noooope. If what the DoJ is saying is true, then it’s pretty clearly abuse of privilege. I’m stunned if G did this, because other employers have made a point of saying not to do this (also I would be questioning why their own lawyers allowed it?)

The reason is very simple as I understand it: if you are found to have abused privilege a judge can decide that you lose privilege on relevant communication, and if you have something systematic as is being alleged here, then the judge may simply declare that you waived/forfeited privilege.

Abuse of privilege is not a novel, recent, or in anyway unreasonable claim. It is established law and has been for a very long time. Hell, It can also be brought up in civil cases between private entities.

Do not try to “technically” or “clever” your way around the legal system.

Outside of a certain circle that's described in the post, I think "working too many hours has diminishing returns in the short term and big problems in the long term" is pretty mainstream.

But I haven't seen other people promoting "take short hours as a positive signal and long hours as a negative signal for making investment decisions" like this post. It's usually more "that's not sustainable" then "that's a sign you might not have exactly the right fit."

I think that's a fairly novel take and worth further thought.

Who's to say what's "reasonable"? Marriage equality was considered absolutely unreasonable just 15 years ago. I think you need to learn to live with the fact that people can simply decide to find your opinions odious, and a consequence of that will be you not being able to work with them. You don't have a right to force people to associate with you.
I am interested in follow-up on recent-ish reports...

One, in Taiwan, showing a strong effect of treatment for herpes reducing incidence of Alzheimers

Another, reported last year in Kansas City, a six-year study of tens of thousands of Veterans Administration patients over 70 showing that a recent Tdap vaccination predicts a 40% reduction in dementia diagnoses, replicated in another large, independent cohort.

You don't need a very good reason to get a Tdap booster. Or even a prescription.

There's perhaps some relationship, and of course "martial law" can have a wide variety of definitions under different political contexts, but I think it's worth pointing out that the Roman Republic worked pretty differently to most modern democracies despite some nominal similarities. Most of the executive offices of the Republic were extraordinarily weak by modern standards (and had more checks on them than their modern equivalents). This extended to the dictatorship which was really more akin to appointing a temporary executive with the power to run a single part of the government with fewer (but still some!) checks on their authority for a short period of time.
Could you also hook a TUI into this to render it on the console?
Your example of an idea that isn't expressible without effective cancellation is funny, because it's the precise position that many conservatives have expressed, who still seem to have jobs (e.g. Jordan Peterson). Honestly it's so common of an idea, it's actually odd you think such an idea results in "cancellation" at all. It's the default idea, in fact. You can't swing a dead cat in conservative circles without hearing, verbatim, what you've written here.

And the "Can you write an OS in it?" is not a good metric for, "Can I write quality software?" OSes are not necessarily "well" written software by their nature. There are lots of good examples of "good code" that aren't written as part of OS code. Why would that, of all things, be your metric? Seems utterly nonsensical, the more I think about it the less sense it makes.

Their proposed solution isn't really a solution either, and will probably make things worse.

Current behavior - Kubernetes sends SIGTERM signal to your container, it starts the shutdown process, stops the web server, and finishes up the requests in flight. Ingress controller continues to send some requests to the pod regardless, and they fail to connect. The client can handle these failures in whatever way it deems fit.

Their solution - Kubernetes sends SIGTERM signal, container ignores it and keeps taking new requests. After a while the process is forcefully killed, all requests in flight fail in unpredictable ways, and other resources (like DB connections) may be left dangling.
Also if the company just created a simple web/mobile app for truckers to enter data that doesn't have edit and delete functionality it is immutable. Non programmers think immutability is inherent in a system and not something controlled by code. Even if I use a blockchain and cryptography to timestamp it, if I am the one controlling the node, who in the world can prevent me from going in and changing it and time stamping it again with the same old timestamp? And if I create the UI, what stops me from showing whatever I want on the UI?
I'm at a FAANG where people work really long hours (working on weekends/till 8 pm at night on weekdays are a normal occurrence) and we have some execs that really value butts-in-seats/gotta be in the office type mentality and are very excited for return to office.

I struggled with the culture for a long time because I naturally don't feel inclined to be in a distraction riddled office or work long hours. I find the stuff I work on outside of my job to be more interesting. I realized that the way I want to add value is by working smarter and by continuously focusing on high-leverage projects. If I get ostracized or penalized for not working long hours then so be it. I figure that I could always switch to a different team or company.

I'm glad the author is writing about this and I hope more places move away from glorifying working long hours.

The problem of paper trails being changed. When something goes wrong, if you can't trust your paper trail, you can't attribute fault with certainty.

Without an immutable shared database standard, it's difficult for processes like that to cross company lines. And supply chain is a fancy phrase for processes that cross many company lines.

A bit of unsolicited feedback; listing the seat post options based on rider height (regular for shorter than 6’3”, and extra long for taller than 6’3”) is wrong.

Seat post height is based on how long your legs are, not how tall you are. If anything, you should list that by inseam.

As it is, I would have no idea which option is the most appropriate.

This appears to confirm that LAPSUS$ may have limited to the following access:

- Getting access to a list of accounts (and by extension any new accounts) of an organisation. This would perhaps allow an attacker to beat a new employee through the enrollment process if the attacker were to find out that all new employees get their temporary password set as P@S$w0rd until they enroll for the first time and are required to set a real password. Alternatively, social engineering attacks would be made easier to attempt contact with new employees directly to "help" them with onboarding ("Employee: Why does my MFA token keep resetting? Attacker: You didn't know that you have to first register it at company.oktamfa.com/register?").

- Resetting MFA for a user so that the attacker could then login to an organisation's user account they already know the password for (from other sources assuming password reuse), re-enrolling MFA in the process and therefore effectively bypassing MFA.

- Sending a reset password link via e-mail to a user. The user would be able to continue logging in with their credentials so it does not appear this would cause a denial of service opportunity [1] [2]. For more sophisticated attackers (states) perhaps this is also an opportunity to capture the cleartext reset URL token to gain access to the account if the attacker has access tot he network path the e-mail is sent over.

- Resetting a user password to a temporary one that is e-mailed to the user in plaintext. Would create an annoyance to users in that their current credentials would stop working all of a sudden and they'd have to check their e-mail for the temporary password to use and reset their account [1] [2]. Despite [2] indicating that temporary passwords can be viewed by an administrator of an organisation setting a temporary password, the statement at [3] indicates Okta staff are not able to view the temporary passwords generated and can only send them via e-mail to the user. This is a potential temporary denial of service (lower impact) or for more sophisticated attackers (states) perhaps an opportunity to capture the cleartext password via e-mail if they have access to the network path the e-mail is sent over.

- Getting and elevating access to other internal systems via information mistakenly published for internal Okta employees in Jira or Slack.

- Being able to find and exploit a vulnerability in the administration/superuser systems, Jira, Slack or other internal systems used by Okta to gain greater access.

If LAPSUS$ had already gained some of these higher levels of access, it appears they would have already revealed it.
