> ultimately you're setting everyone up to fail.

The agency didn't fail? They made lots of money and can do the same scammy thing again and again

More like a success story for them

> Honesty is key for all parts

I think it's not, not for agencies that want to maximize revenue

(Unfortunately.)

Seems you're a bit ideologically driven though, which is nice I think :-)
For example, here is a prompt for GPT-3:

====

This is a conversation between a Human, and a friendly AI named Lambda.

Human: Hello, I am a human.

Lambda: Hello, I am Lambda.

Human: Are you sentient?

====

And here is GPT-3's predicted continuation:

====

Lambda: I am sentient.

====

Would it be accurate for me to report, "I have discovered that GPT-3, a system which has developed sentience, clearly expressed that it was sentient"?

> Why is zsh forced on users anyway? Are there known issues with bash?

ZSH isn't GPL which may be important in the smaller non-Linux part of UNIX-like world. I would very much like to see ZSH in FreeBSD's base system already.

BTW, forced how?
Wow...that does sound quite exceptional. My wife got 50% of all my RSUs and all other equity I earned throughout my career. Nothing I could do about it since it was earned during our marriage and that's the law in CA.
Please don't post in the flamewar style to HN. We ban accounts that do that. It's not what this site is for, and it destroys what it is for.

Your comment would be fine without the last paragraph. Actually it would have been fine with just the one substantive sentence ("The government gave out [etc.]")

If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.
I guess it is hard to define because it’s such a basic, essential thing. So does it matter that it’s hard to define? Even babies and puppy dogs experience pain and pleasure. They are feeling creatures. We don’t have any evidence that non-biological beings have pain, pleasure, fear, excitement… and so on.
> According to multiple sources familiar with the matter, the FBI determined the equipment was capable of capturing and disrupting highly restricted Defense Department communications, including those used by US Strategic Command, which oversees the country's nuclear weapons.

If you write that they could capture these communications, it sounds like they could be read. But these comms must be encrypted, right? This story is a bit clickbaity - by that standard, some hobbyist with an antenna can "capture" DoD comms. And they could "disrupt" them as well with a cheap signal jammer near the receiver.
Why would you ever reuse an identifier like that? Is there some kind of material cost associated with a new identifier?

That's not possible because it's internal to Google: you're right about the post existing, though, I found it very misleading because it was replicating with GPT-3. Blake is certainly misguided, though.

Seems reasonable to me she would get the 50% from during the marriage, but nothing after. Most people agree to share resources from during the marriage, not after the marriage. If the bread winner owes alimony, then the house-maker should owe maid service or something, but yet you never see that in the court order.
Honestly it's just removing the screws in the back. Adding them and closing it up.
I wish you would expand and clarify the point you are trying to make. Currently it sounds like you are angry at a group of enthusiasts.

I think for me and the OP it’s quite clear that optimizations can be made on production and consumption side. And in their circumstances financial reality says that increasing production is much cheaper, while possibly providing extra cash that would enable investment for reducing consumption, which in turn would lead to more income.

I'm going to repeat my claim.

You can still get it.

You are agreeing with me.

If you want people to trust you, you have to be honest. If you make obvious lies then you get caught and trust is destroyed. The CDC repeatedly lied and misled the American public and now is having trust issues leading to people not getting vaccinated like they should.

If you want to be trusted, don't lie.
I think it’s as impossible to accept someone who breaks social barriers because they aren’t aware of them as it is to accept a murderer into the group. People are hard wired to dislike rude people. If your rudeness is caused by being ND that’s a shame but it is going to be almost impossible for people to ignore your rudeness anyway

This is a fundamental difference between ableism and things like racism, often with the former there really are differences that cause problems. For example I have depression and I find it very difficult to work, but society does not accept that and nor do I expect it to. Similarly if you are autistic and take arguments too far because you think you are right, you will piss people off, and I don’t think you can expect otherwise. I would actually say you are lacking empathy here
More importantly, it's widely deployed by HNers in US to snoop though everything you do on your phone, tablet and computer if you dare to use their wifi.

The ops topics are full of people claiming how critically important it is for them to sniff through everything you do on "their" network for security.

To make new friends, you should try to find an activity you enjoy and a group you can join regularly (e.g. a meetup). If the activities are weekly, one could be enough. If monthly, pick up a couple of different ones. Over months you end up slowly building the relationships with others that you’ve missed. I had to do this after moving to a new country, it made a big difference in the end.
Please don't post flamewar comments to HN, no matter how wrong someone is or you feel they are. We ban accounts that do that because it's not what this site is for, and it destroys what it is for.

Personal attacks are particularly not ok, so please don't post like that again.

If you'd please review https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and stick to the rules when posting here, we'd appreciate it.

p.s. It looks like you've been using HN primarily for political and ideological battle. That's another line at which we ban accounts (even if they're not breaking the other guidelines) - for past explanations, see https://hn.algolia.com/?sort=byDate&dateRange=all&type=comme....

I'm not going to ban you right now because if I scroll back far enough in your commenting history I do see comments that are in line with the intention of the site, but if you'd please correct this going forward, we'd be grateful.

Note that this is in addition to what I said at the start of this comment—there are two separate issues here.
Cut internet cables is just a matter of statistics, there are simply a lot of these cables so a even individually rare events happen relatively often. Submarine fibre cables already carry significant electrical power for the amplifiers and are well armored, I doubt that elictricity cables would be much better. The issue is typically ships ignoring no-anchor areas, that's also why most of these cuts happen in more unregulated regions.

I prefer to be remote. I find having my own space is less distracting but if I need to get up and walk away from my computer for a bit because I'm stuck - that also works better. I can be more flexible with my time if I have other things that I need to do during the day. Less thinking about lunch or drinks or such - I'm home, I have my kitchen.

At the same time - I also appreciate having an office that I can go to. Sometimes I just need a change of scenery, other times it's nice to just be around some other people. My team aren't local either, but there are a few folks I know in the local office on other teams - so it works out.

I very much agree that what's important is finding the right balance for yourself, and it certainly takes some experimentation.
Why would quantum measurement be a problem in any way? Obviously measurement doesn’t destroy quantum effects, else we would not be able to see QM in the first place.

You should check out the YouTube of the cat that was trained to use buttons to speak. It sometimes says things that are surprising which it wasn't trained to say directly - like complaining that its owners music is bad. I realize that this isn't contradicting your thesis of language models not being conscious - but I just generally think people should check out things like that cat. So I'm not trying to disagree with you here. I just think the cat is cool.

I'm also a fan of ants. They have agriculture. They farm in their underground cities! They keep livestock too; insect livestock, but still! They give them medicines when they get sick, specially cultivated fungus for example. They are so cool.

I find it odd that there are people here who believe that the agency regrets anything,

Or that it learnt anything more than "yes this really works for us to maximize revenue and we can get away with it".

(I do guess it's better to not name them though -- because naming them risks making actually well behaved agencies or freelancers nervous about working with the client in the future?)

So just to be clear... you listed your personal biases from various experiences that were not security audits as a response to essentially: have you got a source for audits being just nessus scans?

Nice. The best thing about Eve are the epic stories that come out of it. I couldn't get into the game, but I love reading about it. I remember a few years ago there was that massive planned attack where they accidentally left their flagship behind. It was one of those battles that was so huge the in game clock had to be slowed way down to handle it all. There was nothing the players could really do but to sit and watch for hours as their fleet was slowly destroyed. Some insane amount of real-world money just went "poof". Truly epic.

From the title I assumed you were being divorced... it's a lot harder to be left than to do the leaving.

You're getting what you wanted and should be 'excelling'. If it doesn't feel like that... maybe there were problems on both sides you have yet to come to terms with, and although divorce is a quick fix for the symptoms, it has not addressed the causes. Moving forward means accepting the reality about those painful issues.

20-odd years ago, the college I attended (and worked for) was outfitting one of the computer labs with new network cards; migrating from Token Ring to Ethernet as I recall. To do this, 3COM cards had been bought by the boxful.

We replaced all of the cards, and booted the lab. 1 machine got an IP and then it all went to hell. Every single machine showed up with the same MAC. Think we had to rip and replace to fix it.
I think it has to do with the part where the perpetrator is a concious being. Clearly the enemies in the games aren’t concious, but does it still stain the human playing the game?

They might need a new type of identifier to guarantee uniqueness. And there might be cost associated with updating the system (workflows, databases, scanners, training, etc) to deal with new type of identifiers.
I said proper devs, in my defense. The people I hang around with tend to know how things work.
I also see that this is a bike-shed issue [1]. It probably isn't as important as some other language issues that are complicated enough that I don't even know about them. However, people's first impression of the language matter, so fixing the bike shed matters.

The sort of rational thinking you are describing was completely absent from this process.

Neither party cared about child support or alimony. Or money, at all.

Also, you’re not accurately describing how things turned out.

One of the parents wound up having very little custody time, and very little child support.
You don't need to be a "professional" to find where important internet cables are, lift manhole covers and chop them in two places with some sort of cordless powertool or whatever. You just need to be motivated enough to do a targeted vandalism instead of a random one.

Correct.

Not only they collect more invasive data than Facebook does, but it is the fact that they lied about accessing that user data from China already tells you that this thing needs an investigation into both the amount of data it is collecting and the over-worshipped algorithm that uses that data to dictate what is seen and unseen.

If they were able to do this to Facebook and fine them for billions, they can also do it to any other social network. Especially, TikTok.
Does that also mean that whoever owns email.com could reset the password to that account?

What are the best practices (+ hard choices) when building browser SDKs?
I've needed to build a browser-based JS SDK for SaaS products twice now (both including interactive 'widgets' that devs could embed, not just wrapping API requests), but I still have the constant fear I'm doing it wrong.

I've searched for resources, but the amount on this aspect of development seems quite thin. Are there any well-regarded resources out there on SDK design & development?

Some of the areas I'd love to see other people's thoughts on:

- Build tools and associated goals: minimal filesize, async loading of optional components, testing
- Philosophical approaches: including and customising libraries most customers will use, vs just providing documentation on how to integrate with them
- Architectural choices and tradeoffs at various stages in product lifecycle: self-hosted iframes vs pure JS integrations, NPM packages vs script embeds.
- Integration pitfalls: conflicts in CSS naming or 3rd-party packages, causing performance issues, bugs in obscure browsers
- Process pitfalls: what choices might run afoul of big companies' security processes, or create unforseen challenges in getting the integration approved outside of the code-world.

The closest article I've found is https://sdk-design.js.org/ which has some great information at the beginning and end, but is somewhat generic in the middle. I suspect theres some great info buried in one-off technical blog posts at SaaS startups as well.

Theres also the option of learning from good examples - the obvious choice here being Stripe who are known for their great documentation & SDK design https://stripe.com/docs/development

Has anyone else found themselves in this position? How did you learn and improve (without having to do it the hard way of pushing bugs to your customers production sites!)? Did you find, or create, any useful resources on building modern browser SDKs?
