I thought that was actually a positive sign from OpenAI; potentially a disingenuous one, but it at least showed an awareness of the potential issues.

There will always be people who find the very idea of thinking about things from an ethical perspective offensive; that doesn't mean they're right. A lot of valuable discussion in this space is drowned out by people shouting down attempts to explore nuance and shine a light on the grey areas [1].

I'm not asking for censorship or a government crackdown; I do think that it's irresponsible to dodge the issues raised, act as though they are settled, or dismiss any concerns as anti-progress. As you say, there is no clear societal consensus, and there are strong arguments in both directions; what I want to see is those discussions taking place, in good faith, and those issues being acknowledged, rather than ignored.

This is why, while 2FA is important, it's not a panacea (and things like the article do happen - which is why I'm always very skeptical of "2FA everything" people)

Some passwords you absolutely do have to memorize. And that is fine. I keep those good passwords for services run by professionals.

Also recovery codes exist

Some time ago I got the advice to buy twice ... first, get the cheapest option that is available (within reason). This allows you to get familiar with whatever you are getting into (be it new tools, new hobby equipment, cars ... basically everything). Then, once the cheapest option breaks or just is not good enough anymore, spend the money and get the best thing you can afford.

Often times I found that the cheap option is perfectly reasonable (e.g. a 500€ cordless screwdriver is not 5x as good as a 100€ one), saving me money in the long run. Other times I quickly outgrow the cheap option, but the experience on the cheap model makes me appreciate the expensive option more (e.g. going from a 150€ Ender 3 to a 2000€ Voron 2.1).

Buy twice, once cheap, then good ... I'll just repeat this advice here :-)

The developer documentation[1] says "REST APIs can be used for websites and other platforms" so it looks like you can use WeatherKit in your Android App, although the API has slightly changed from the Dark Sky API.

I don't really want to dispute that, just want to paint a more realistic of what these scientific projects actually are. They are not investments for sure.
We are all now on the precarious stilts of technology.

Apple is the worst regarding this scenario. They force 2FA like you are a child. I get it, in most cases 2FA is great, but my lifestyle makes it a problem.
> You believe that rd can continue full steam ahead with 20% revenue, dropping the most profitable part?

You get what you measure. Americans decided they want to measure profit and so they think their pharmaceutical companies must be working well because of how profitable they are. Sure, the people are miserable, many can't afford medication they need, but there's so much profit that means it's success right?

Nope.

The owner's hilltop mansion and two yachts don't actually make sick children well, or prevent heart failure or anything like that, spending on R&D is not in fact linked to company profits, instead it's necessary for these companies to survive because innovation is their lifeblood. The profits are an excess.
Re: [1] if you are familiar with the developments in the Haskell space (https://medium.com/@kim_crawley/web3-nfts-and-cryptocurrency...) where circa eight years back what we see today happened in Haskell - concerns for the future of language due to over exposure of risk. It makes more sense and you’ll understand beginning of the entire story arc better of how we got here today. Specifically re: [2] if you haven’t touched blockchain then your opinion is discarded but if you have touched blockchain then your opinion is also discarded. There’s no winning in this space. All critique is off limits because people are concerned that it will devalue their magic beans.
According to this regulation, it seems devices and cables must be clearly marked as for what they can do.
I would imagine you could reach an agreement with a digital savvy lawyer (or law firm) to provide a service to:

- store important information
- have human processes to get you access if needed
I’d freak out if a friend came to me with a disk and told me to keep it safe.

Imagining someday I go on vacation and valuables are stolen, including that disk. Now that friend’s supposedly personal data is compromised, as of course they would set a lower protection on something that is supposed to be used during emergencies.

Same if the disk gets corrupted because we didn’t realize it’s stored next to the fan, and 2 years were enough to have an impact.

Or we lose it when moving but nobody realizes the loss.

So many weird scenarios, I’d feel more confident if they gave me their kid to raise for 5 years.
Honest question, do you apply the same reasoning to gun control?
> Channels in Go are fully synchronized, which implies locking inside the inner loop.

That smells strongly like an optimization opportunity waiting to happen, and here we have a profile that can be used to test it. chanrecv seems to have no fast-path for buffered channels with data and always locks. Has nobody thought of making this at least partially lock-free?
Per capita is a poor way of looking at the scope of this particular problem. We can service that one farm with several thousand gallons of diesel. It’s an understandable power generation problem with units normal people understand.

Powering a city is at another entirely different scale, and “diesel” doesn’t come close to addressing the magnitude of that problem.
The point is that things that there isn't anything that requires a good engineer that also can be done in a day. Either a job is something that can be done in a trivial amount of time because it's simple, or it's something that's hard enough to take some skill. It's never both. There are no jobs that can be done faster by being a better engineer.

Good engineers do better work, not faster work. Often they're actually slower because they consider the edge cases and they don't cut corners.
We moved to the country 25 years ago. First summer, driving home after dark, my wife said "What's all those lights?" About 1B fireflies were flashing over a hayfield.

"Fireflies!"

"No, really! Fireflies are made up!"

See, she grew up in the desert and thought stories about fireflies were in with fairies and elves.

Anyway, haven't seen that again since. Now I know why.
That problem is solved by how 1Password works:

* Your password vult is encrypted locally and stored on their servers (just an encrypted file!)
* To unlock the vault, you need the password and the generated master code.
* The master code is a PDF to print, which you can give someone you trust – they still only have half of the things to get access.

The losing of digital life is completely solved. Just print that damn PDF give it to your parents and remember your password.
I would suggest keeping an eye on the voltage with a meter and when it starts to drop solder on a second battery while you replace the first, the same way people replace game cartridge batteries without losing SRAM saves.
I went through the process of considering this recently, and considered a safe deposit box, but as mentioned, they're not viable in many places. I eventually settled on multiple security keys, distributed across multiple locations I have access to. And it got me thinking, is there a business opportunity in providing secure storage for security keys? Safe deposit boxes are, as the post notes, either mythical or extremely expensive and inconvenient.

I can come up with a few challenges to running such a service, and a few solutions, but I ultimately come back to thinking: nobody smart enough to use a security key is going to trust some third-party to store their emergency key, no matter what security methods are implemented. Am I right in that assumption?
> Also, what is the point of a dealership

Because the US has a law that prohibits direct sales and must be made through a dealership. Presumably some middle man bribed their way to creating that law
I remember reading a story about backups right after one of the California wildfires and the author said something like this:

"I used to store my backups in the garage and thought myself smart since they were physically separate from my desktop. Then ENTIRE NEIGHBORHOODS burned down and I realized I needed more physical distance"
> I do agree however that the cable-labelling situation is awful.

The new rules mention that and aim to fix it by demanding clear labels.
One of the main difference between US and Canada is that in canada the government negotiates prices for the entire province. They have a lot of leverage because the contracts are for the entire system, not a single hospital. They have a public bidding process and companies from around will fight for it and offer competitive pricing.

It's not a new concept and it works with almost all commodities. If you need to buy iphones, you are likely to get a better price for them if you call Apple directly and ask to buy a batch of 10M than if you show up to an apple store to get 5 units.
Spare 'documented Dreamers' from deportation, tech giants tell Biden official
Not really solved - forgetting a password is where you started. Does it help to say "Just remember the password!"?
This is wrong. Or rather, correct, but only in certain states, and for certain facilities.

IMD over 65 is only offered in some states, and have strict requirements for facilities that accept medicaid (not all that many do near us).

In our case, the waiting time was about 3 years for a room in the facility closest to us. Alternatively, there was an option about 4 hours away.

Worse, both medicaid facilities we looked at were... bad. Frequent complaints about abuse, very high rates of staff turnover, very little stimulation for residents (one was basically a single old tv on the wall in a cinderblock room - it looked basically like prison).

So yes - Medicaid will cover some costs in some cases, but really - the kids end up paying.
> "The claims that the blockchain advocates make are not true," said Bruce Schneier. "It's not secure, it's not decentralised. Any system where you forget your password and you lose your life savings is not a safe system," he added.

His tweet. He clearly identifies the problem as “lost password” implies disaster. This line of thinking is what the government uses to argue for back doors in cryptography software. The position he is taking leads to the argument that we need our cryptographic keys backed up by the state/corporations so that we don’t lose our life savings.
Sorry to hear that, @edent, and as someone that just got a Yubikey [1], it sounds like I need to place the spare one at a geographically distinct place ASAP, rather than in a lockbox in my house. Easier said than done.

1: only my mail and password manager are protected with my Yubikeys. As long as I can have access to one key, I'm safe. Which means if I lose access to both my FIDO keys, I'm fucked.
> just use async everywhere. That’s not the solution in Rust. It simply won’t work for the same reason that Rust isn’t GC’d.

At this point, I have to say RC is a primitive form of GC and it would mostly work. Not high performance but it would work.

> To be clear, I hate programming language development driven by memes. I don’t think that was the case with Rust async

First, most programming is driven by fads. Second, my point was that if Rust waited more people would pan it for not having async.

Rust async was "rushed". It took years, but we still didn't get smooth experience out of it. Many pieces were missing.

It was rushed because many people wanted it, many developers were sick of having it in limbo, etc.

> Today, in safe rust, it is impossible to allocate a structure larger than the stack. Placement new is always just around the bend.

I don't follow Rust development too detailed nowadays, but if you are experiencing hardships, have you considered providing support to it? Either via money or time donations?

I understand complaining that some closed source company is prohibiting you from doing something, but this is an OSS project.

> Isn't the point to prove physical access to the camera.

Yes. But since you can't really prove who had and who did not have physical access to the camera (what are you going to use, video evidence ;) ) that carries little weight.

Let's say we're talking about a death penalty or a multi billion $ lawsuit, the stakes would be so high that to rely on something as trivial as a signature on a video stream would be way too risky because of the consequences.

Which expert would sign on the dotted line to the statement that 'the equipment has not been accessed by someone who wasn't authorized to do so'? And that's before we get into the question of whether this camera really is the only way that this particular video could be generated (can duplicates of the TPM be made by the manufacturer?), you'd have to do a lot of work to make guarantees that would stand the test of time.

All it takes is one 'DVD Jon' and you can kiss your carefully constructed scheme goodbye.

Finally, the whole chain of that video would have to preserve the signatures, which in a world that tries to balance privacy with other concerns may not be feasible and in fact could well have downsides all its own.

Personally I would much rather see the level of skepticism against all kinds of digital evidence go up than to see the trust go up due to supposedly magic signatures and other tricks to pretend that we have a perfect lock on this stuff. Every time we believe we do someone comes along that proves us wrong, usually after the damage is done. See also: fingerprints, face recognition, DNA evidence, lie detectors, bomb detectors and so on.
Not solved, because your parents could lose a piece of paper (I'd say that's actually a fairly high risk, not just theoretical). Anyone could lose a piece of paper, for that matter. You want multiple, distributed across at least three continents to be sure. The same with your password. ;-)
I'm not claiming that any of these models have achieved a generalized level of scientific understanding. They are narrow in their abilities - savants of a sort. But it seems to me to be missing an important point to reduce them to mere databases. Learned knowledge and intelligent behavior are multi-dimensional, and I think we're seeing a different sampling with the current generation of AI models than we see in our own sampling. They are highly specific, and refined for one "intelligent" task, but not in any way broadly general. We are comparing them to human intelligence, which leans heavily in the other direction.
As shlip already mentioned, the title is misleading, and not what the study concludes at all. That being said, I can put in my own two-cents-worth of anecdote on the subject. Since I converted[1] my bike to an e-bike, it's way more fun to ride, so I ride it a lot more. I definitely feel that I'm getting more exercise than before, because I'm still pedaling just as hard when I ride, only I go faster and farther.

Yeah, I haven't done any Haskell but from what I understand "a monad" is just a type that lets you call `.map()` on it and do the normal thing that `map()` does. Would it be wrong to call it `mappable`? That would be a much clearer name.

As someone with a stalker, I can't emphasize this enough. A stalker will go to all sorts of lengths to do bizarre shit. People don't believe it. I would guess governments will do some equivalent there-of.

Democratizing access to things -- including bad things -- has a preventative effect:

1) I can guard against things I know about

2) People take me seriously if something has been democratized

The worst-case scenario is if my stalker got her hands on something like deep fake technology before the police / prosecutor / jury didn't knew it existed. I'd probably be in jail by now if something like that ever happened. She's tried to frame me twice before. Fortunately, they were transparent. She'll try again.

Best case scenario is that no one has access to this stuff.

Worst case scenario is only a select group have access, and most people don't know about it.

Universal access is somewhere in between.
So will USB-D be announced before then?

It looks like Nintendo would have to fix that in order to comply with the regulations. The bare minimum, if I read it correctly, is to label the port and charger making it clear what their limitations are.
The problem is more that you have to use Apple's 2FA which is linked to their devices. You lose them all at once because you are robbed? Good luck!

There isn't any way to get a TOTP key you can store in a password manager.
Hello, your tool is great! I have questions about the future of the project, is it planned to add languages in the future? The European Union grant ends in June and will the project continue to develop and add more languages in the future?
That's very interesting, not because the new iPhone would have a USB-C, but due to the fact that Apple continues selling older phones.

Currently they sell the SE, 11, 12 and 13

By 2024 they will be selling a SE, 13, 14 and 15.
Will they rework the SE, 13 and 14 to get USB-C? Will they stop selling them just in Europe?

That's potentially a lot of money left on the table.

We're still working like (eg.) coal miners, inherited from the first industrial revolution.

More people, more hours: more coal extracted.

Interestingly, farmers in the middle ages are a much more balanced model (catastrophes aside): the land they had was mostly manageable by a small group of people, and there's only only so much you can optimize, given the patch of land that you have. So you do what you have to do and when you're done, well, you're done.
Worth noting: Bitwarden gives you a recovery code incase you lose your 2FA device. So as Terrence Eden said: invest in a safety deposit box and store the recovery code there. Or memorize it if you can.

GPS spoofers are available legally, you just replace the gps antenna with the spoofer, so no FCC violation. You'd have to break the law if you don't want to open the case to get to the antenna. I don't have any answers to the accelerometer or focus other than replacing those sensors too, and if you made the accelerometer on the same tpm enabled soc it would make moving shots like from a dash cam hard.

Anecdotally I have seen a huge decrease in firefly's here in SE Michigan over the last few years. Five or so years ago you'd see hundreds of them while driving through the farm fields or sitting in your backyard enjoying a summer brewski. Last few years I hardly recall seeing any of them anywhere.
Presumably you meant Bruce Schneier. I don't think he is advocating for backdoors, what makes you think so? He is just advocating against cryptocurrencies, as he laid out in his article linked from the open letter: "Cryptocurrencies are useless.

That's not what the trial is; workers will be paid 100% of their salary for 80% of their usual time. That's what makes it different from a 'flexible hours' pilot.

Overtime is extremely uncommon even in Europe and has to be agreed upon in contract, and even then most employers just provide extra time off instead of money for full-time workers.
That's why only about 10 timestamping authorities exist (at least in a trust sense) on Windows, and they're held to a much higher security standard compared to every other signing operation. Could just be an independent HSM with its own atomic clock to prevent such attacks.

Otherwise there's no viable way to actually use timestamping, or your archived timestamped files would just randomly become untrustworthy. Keeping the signature valid using a timestamp (and giving the timestamp special standing) means you can still trust something like a Windows XP installer 20 years later without needing to save a hash ahead of time (and without worrying the hash you saved elsewhere was maliciously changed to fit the changed file).
