Hi -- original Mosh author here. We're excited to be doing a new release, with a new team of maintainers (not academics!), fuzzing from oss-fuzz, 24color support, etc., and would appreciate all the testing of the release candidate that Hacker News is able to provide. Hopefully we'll have a 1.4 soon. Details here: https://mailman.mit.edu/pipermail/mosh-devel/2022-August/001...

Re: why has it been five years, I feel like I've written this message many times on HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28151637 , https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31010005), but here's another go. :-) We take Mosh's security seriously. In the ten years that Mosh has been out (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3819382), we've never had a real security hole -- that we know about. That's a fantastic (apparent) track record. I don't want us to boast about it because it's just tempting fate, and of course you never really know if you have a security hole (just the ones you find or people tell you about), but, in terms of "security holes discovered," Mosh's track record compares really well with OpenSSH, OpenSSL, etc. Of course those codebases (a) have a lot more features than Mosh, and do more than Mosh, and (b) release more often than Mosh, but I'm happy (and I think the rest of the team is too) that Mosh does the thing it does well and without having made our users vulnerable. Back in 2012 when Mosh first came out, with a novel C++ codebase, and a novel secure datagram protocol, a lot of people were skeptical that it was worth trusting, and I'm pretty happy with how things turned out. This was all before HeartBleed and before QUIC, when self-assured people told me to "use something vetted, like OpenSSL" instead of our own new protocol and codebase. It took a long time to earn the community's trust, and now there's a few million people using Mosh, and I don't want us to fuck that up.

I had handed off the project to another maintainer, and my understanding is that he had some health challenges or maybe just got burnt out. Given the choice between "release the code with lots of new features, but without the normal procedure and without an active maintainer to take responsibility for it" vs. "don't release," we chose the conservative option. I think that was the right choice. Of course many people equate "how recently was there a release" to "how secure is this software," and... I guess we are a counterexample? Not sure what else to say.

Thank you to HN and Patrick Collison for publicizing Mosh back when it first came out ten years ago (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=3819382) and hope the next 10 years goes similarly... uneventfully and full of secure, reliable, mobile terminal sessions. :-) And thank you to all of you who get a chance to test the release candidate!
Like many iterative technologies, Wordpress had the right idea with clunky, underdeveloped execution. Nevertheless it was wildly successful but the way that it works often requires some web development (or at least technical administration).

Wix and Squarespace (the spiritual successors to Wordpress) however have undoubtedly put lots (most?) contract WebDevs out of business. There are still plenty around - go check Fiverr or UpWork. However it's impossible to argue that these tools haven't made it easier for non-web devs to build a fully-featured and beautiful site for a fraction of the cost in a fraction of the time. It used to be that these no-code site builders all looked crappy and cookie cutter but in the past few years they've really upped the quality of their templates such that they often are indistinguishable from a "handmade" landing page.

I think the path is likely to be similar for these AI image and text generators.
Nonsense. Android Auto (and likely CarPlay as well) is just a video player. They just take H.265 frames and feed it to the head unit, and feed user feedback back to the phone. Audio stack is I believe somehow piggybacked off Bluetooth, but I could be wrong. As far as I know no software from Google runs on the head unit itself.
They probably already have a car.
Not quite -- I want something that will show me a hostname or instantiating command from the SSH escape sequence subsystem (e.g. if I'm N SSH sessions deep and hit ~~~., where will the kill land).
That would all be outside. Polypropylene is proof against sulfuric acid.

But you will need that sulfuric acid for the hydrogen it carries. Carbon from CO2 for structural members, hydrocarbon for plastics and fabric for gas bags, oxygen to breathe. There is thin gaseous silicides, in case you need any silicon.

It will be hard to keep the concentration of CO2 in the breathing air thin enough not to make everyone stupid, with so much of it outside.
The Mystery of the Frog Riddle
Corporations can’t force you to do any thing you don’t want to do.

Governments can kill you, and brag about it publicly.
It... Doesn't have to mean any of those things? Trains and bikes (and ebikes) and scooters and sidewalks and buses and trolleys and streetcars exist.

You don't have to design around the car...
So you're right back to flying single engine pistons then. I don't understand the point here.
If fuel from air can be made efficient, then combined with highly economical fusion, I could see it being viable. I'm not sure it will ever be cost competitive with long tail oil and gas, though. And that's at least 30 years out.
I don’t think the esp32 simulator is open, although the avr8 and pico ones are
This is a very interesting point that I appreciate you making. We humans don’t do a very good job appreciating how
weird we are when it comes to the action or productivity per unit of effort.

And the guy standing in line playing a game of blitz chess won’t feel exhausted by boredom, but may have less mental bandwidth to send a tenuous email when he gets home from the DMV. Cheers
So you're just going to skip over the fact that you don't even need to know how to draw/paint and what large manual effort that used to be?
My back of the envelope calculation is that 1GW for 1 year is 30PJ. Jet fuel has 42MJ/kg with a density of 0.8 kg/L for a total of around 100 million liters of fuel at 100% efficiency. An A321 holds around 30000L which comes out to about 30000 flights equivalent from one reactor. GVA had around 200000 flights in 2018 meaning about 6 1GW reactors equivalent of fuel used (obviously not all flights would be fully loaded but I don't know what a normal load is).
He’s clearly just grinding his axe about government. Probably not worth engaging him tbh.
One thing I'm still struggling to predict is just how far AI art will really penetrate into society.

Namely, if you've shown this stuff off to "normal" people, you've probably noticed that their reactions are kind of mixed, most being fairly dismissive. Some might even be confused because they just sort of thought that this is how art was made on a computer in the first place. Personally, I don't think a hypothetical DALL-E 3 or even DALL-E 4 will change their minds. At a certain point a sophisticated AI art tool becomes indistinguishable from Google Search.

Indeed, part of me wonders if where this is all heading. Google Search for things that don't actually exist. Infinite Pinterest. Indeed, I think this is the most serious scenario.

I mean, think about it. Imagine what it would be like if Google search rolled out a new search engine where you paid to search for images, but you could use whatever images you found for whatever. Search for a dragon sitting on a pile of gold and you'll find a heap of dragons sitting on piles of gold in any style you could imagine which you. Download it and use it in whatever you want. Its yours now (or so they claim, you can't help but wonder if its too good to be true). That really is essentially what AI art is.

And when you put it that way, it sounds pretty underwhelming. If you're a creative director /marketer on a budget, its infinite stock photos at a price just slightly cheaper than what you were paying anyway. If you're a creative on a budget who can't draw good, it's a good-enough source of creative imagery (so many damn NFTs). If you're a small business owner, you might be able to find a logo you like after enough digging, though you might feel that you're limited by your ability to ask for what you want.

At the end of the day though, it amazes me how the smartest people in the room consistently fail to comprehend how unreliable spoken and written language are as a form of communication. It's a very slow way of communicating versus pictures and imagery. Honestly, this whole infatuation with AI makes me think that these people are trying to invent yesterday's future, the future of the 60s, one where you could talk to an "artificial brain" but the idea of a computer as a creative canvas was absolutely absurd. It feels like a strange step back. It feels very backwards to suggest that "prompt engineer" will be a future career.

I think that's why the real future of AI art probably isn't machines that make the art for you, but "magic paintbrushes".
> The car cannot detect that you are receiving sun rays through the windows.

I wouldn't get a car that doesn't have some kind of low emissivity tinting on it. Also, all my cars with screens could detect how intense the sun is overall. It can easily adjust.
Well, the author says they keep up on "the latest papers" and whatnot, which leaves me as yet unconvinced of the artistic quality of the future output from these models. We will see.

While I'm still rambling on about this – the author states: “In a strictly mechanical sense, yes, an artist can still create, knowing that the art could be done faster and better by AI.” The art cannot necessarily be done better by an AI, and the speed with which art is created does not matter, artistically.
Only during the transition phase. When it stabilises the weather will be stable again but yes overall warmer. Except in places affected by changed patterns, like if the gulfstream changes, Western Europe could become a lot cooler

I know its generally a faux pas to talk about this, but its extremely funny to me how the above response hovers between ~+7 and ~0 depending on if Europeans or Americans are the predominant logged in crowd.
The distribution is different. The median programmer provides much more value than the median artist. Additionally math/cs skills apply much more broadly than art skills. The entertainment industry would be much less leveraged without the tools we built for them.
I sincerly hope that works.
Safety for drivers but not for pedestrians or cyclists.
Wouldn't it engage a heavier fan speed if there was a smaller disparity in temperature? For example if it's 75 in the car and I'd like it to be 72 turning the AC down to 70 would engage a heavier fan speed with the downside of increased noise, so practically I would cool down quicker by setting it to 70
and could then adjust back up to 72.

But more practically, if I start catching a lot of sun from the window I might want to go from 72 to 70 to compensate, even if the cabin temperature is more or less the same.
Are you aware you are by far, far far far, irregular?
you have to run apt --autoremove or something. If you don't, debian/ubuntu updates will get slower and slower as it has to rebuild some index for every kernel available on the system. Removing all of the kernels you're no longer using fixes the storage space issue, but i am unsure if apt will freak out if it can't find a kernel it thinks is installed. apt --autoremove will uninstall and de-index all of the old kernels for sure, though.

Yeah, that was the entire argument.
Thanks for sharing that link! It's amazing what people were able to come up with in the 60s, before computers and Wikipedia and 3D modeling... wow.

One of the patents mentioned is how VerSnyder was able to grow a turbine blade in a monodirectional crystalline structure: https://patents.google.com/patent/US3260505?oq=versnyder+196... just using a special mold and a specific alloy. That would later form the turbine blades of the SR-71 Blackbird.
Well here's a North American company clearly not willing to pay competitive software engineering rates even within the continent, and trying to take advantage of sub-regional low rates. Like, they're not in Toronto, but just west of it, and companies there are paying less, so, hey, they should pay less, too, right?

You get what you pay for.

This is what happens when HR drones are allowed to do naive "compensation range surveys" for regions. They do not understand the subtleties of the market and try to lump people with specialized skills, lots of experience, etc. in with people fresh off the boat from overseas, pumping out bug fixes for boring internal legacy J2EE systems at ancient insurance companies.

Companies like this will be in real trouble if remote work continues to be a thing. They better hope it doesn't.
What kinds of cars you driving that are making the process that distracting.

I have three giant knobs inches away from my gear lever to control the climate. Climate control status is on a screen just below line of sight to the road.

I'm moving my hand a few inches and generally not even needing to look at anything to get feedback (I can set the fan speed by ear...), and if I do I can do it without taking my eyes off of the road.

I'm controlling the climate control for my comfort, not to hit arbitrary numbers. If I make a quick stop and spend a few minutes out in 110 degree heat, I wanna get in and have ice cold air blasting in my face until I'm comfortable. I don't care if the car is already a chilly 66f inside. If it's -40 outside, I want it to blow heat directly on my feet when I get in until my toes warm up even if the car is already warm. Hell, sometimes if it's too warm in there and my toes are frozen I'll drive around with the heat blasting and a window cracked to keep it comfortable.

I shouldn't need to sacrifice my comfort so the manufacturers can continue building shitty and dangerous UIs for basic vehicle functions.
Taking my hand off the wheel and thinking about making the climate change changes my attention and focus, even if only slightly. It's better to not even have to think about it at all.

As the other commenter said, people who don't even notice when their attention changes probably shouldn't be driving.
Because the car company has a talent pool it can hire from & will have an easier time not f-ing it up. Because what you already know about screens is already present & not reinvented totally custom.

You seem to have very select demanding opinions about what is and isnt ok to allow in, and to reject being over well served. From what I can see, neither QNX nor Android nor any carmaker of note (aside from exotics) has your selective anti-needs in their concern. At this point I dont disagree with your desire, but trying to insist on un-soft computing, on only a couple hardset paths is an elite & narrow concern intolerant to broad usability. We should both understand & respect your narrow, peculiar desires, because they tell an important tale, but have deference to more general answers.

And alas, we just see shitty implementations. Slow ones like this article, where Ford seemingly must be running on a 8 bit toaster controller. And just as bad, the very very very little reporting/available information on what data gets sent to whom. Which I feel is probably not so very bad as many jump to assume... but we dont know & there's no benefit of a doubts left remaining, especially given how impossible finding answers is.
This has always seemed like a very weak argument, almost like a straw man that people believe in for some reason. Even intuitively, why would one expect that reducing land use restrictions would devalue land?

But let’s try actual, if low quality, numbers:

Houses near Atherton, in Menlo Park, seem to sell for around $500k-$1M per 1000 sq ft of lot size. That’s $500 - $1000 per sq ft lot.

Houses in Atherton, supposed home of very expensive homes, seem to sell for around $10M per acre of lot. (Yes, Atherton is so fancy that it uses different units in Zillow!). That’s about $230 per sq ft of land.

In other words, Menlo Park (not exactly a paragon of high density and unrestricted land use) has 2x-4x the land value per unit area of Atherton.

So those NIMBYs who actually want to extract dollar value from their property should support less restrictive land use!

edit: of course this is the value of random houses plus their lots. I expect the effect would be more pronounced if the houses were removed — those Atherton houses tend to be quite fancy.
My first significant Arch install was also pretty long-lived (not 10y but def >5)

Did you go straight to full-on systemd when you installed it? Arch was transitioning to systemd by default around the time of your initial installation (default since Oct 2012 so you would have just missed it if you went with defaults).

Mine was a few years of cruft-accumulation in already and my init system understanding was not super deep at this point so this (together with the glib thing around the same time) is the most disruptive upgrade breakage I recall. If it doesn't show up in your top 5 I'm guessing you dodged it?
I bet they could’ve put together an agreement with TransferWise or OFX to issue digital wallets to citizens and expats for facilitating more efficient remittance at scale for less money than what they’ve wasted on crypto losses.
I’ve been making art with AI for over a year now, and as far as I see it, these AI tools are just fancy paintbrushes.

Okay, it may be novel to prompt ‘A cat by Van Gogh’ and admire the result, but it’s not using the tools to their fullest. Once the novelty of swirly cats wears off, people will realise it’s just another tool.

Where AI really shines is through combining styles, materials and mediums together in ways that are not possible otherwise.

It’ll take time to find out how to use them to their full creative potential, and that’s something I’ve been trying to do over the last year. I’ve got a paintbrush possessed by a drunk genie that knows the entirety of art history and the possibilities are endless.

The people who say AI art is not art because it’s all done by AI are the same who said 30 years ago that digital art is not art because it’s all done by computer, or who 200 years ago said that photography isn’t real art because…

I do think we’re going to see a similar movement to the Arts and Crafts movement in the 1800s. They reacted to the industrialisation of the decorative arts by deliberately focusing on traditional craftsmanship and rejecting mechanisation.

If art no longer needs to be created by a human, then only the things a human can do will be valuable - ideas and craft.

AI tools need ideas to drive them. Left to its own devices, VQGAN + Clip, for example, is perhaps interesting but not particularly artistic. Grey and smudgy. Throw in a few ideas however, really push what it can do, and the results are phenomenal.

Handmade furniture is more valuable than an IKEA flatpack because it’s unique, someone put time and effort and love into it.

Human-made art will become more valued than before, not less.
What a strange example to pick.

There's been an explosion in virtuoso instrumentalists on YouTube from what I've observed. Jazz seems be having a big renaissance especially.
What a strange comment.

Ford is a us tech company.

Most people in Europe don’t want to leave.
The truth is you really shouldn’t be doing anything apart from adjusting the A/C while driving. It’s all dangerous to do, whether it’s a touchscreen or buttons. Everyone does it, but nothing will make it safe.
A lot of times the SEC and the DOJ bring parallel actions, with the DOJ bringing criminal charges. You need to go specifically look for the DOJ's press release or scour court dockets.
As with vehicular autonomy? We all heard predictions like that about 4-5 years ago.
What if we terraformed Venus by shipping the CO2 to Mars? That way we'd be terraforming both planets.

I've been wondering about the feasibility of self-replicating floating comet factories that make dry ice comets that could be launched to mars. You could even wrap them in some sort of carbon based exterior to prevent them from boiling off too much in transit.

The penalty against normal everyday people like these people seems much stiffer than the penalties levied at sophisticated financial professionals. The traders operating hard-to-prove frauds with a "nod and a wink" approval from their supervisors at large banks and hedge funds always seem to be allowed to reap hundreds of millions of dollars in ill-gotten gains and if caught, give back only a tiny fraction of it, without even admitting guilt.

It could detect it quite easily but this is the industry that thought they were doing you a favor putting a CD player in. There are so many awesome things cars could do but they don’t.
Sounds like you haven't been looking that hard.

There are plenty examples on the DALL-E subreddit that put the majority of Deviant Art artists to shame.
I agree in the typical case, but they support concurrent add/delete one of their index options. Handling consistency/contention for modifying whatever graph/tree/etc structure they are using is probably nontrivial, and the resulting cache invalidations would also likely affect the QPS.

P.S. Great work on your site, by the way - it's a really inspiring project!
There is nothing in the laws of nature that require "rational actor" application of leverage. Money does not buy happiness. It seems their previous job directly conflicted with their stated goal of expressing themselves, and the new graphic design gig does not. To me that achieved quite a lot.
"The SEC claims that the illegal trading by L. Palmer's former client and J. Palmer's friend netted approximately $35,000 and $73,000 in profits"... The SEC here going for the big whales. /s
nice I have something similar for fish, just

if string match -q -r 'tmux\-\d+' "$TMUX"
tmux show-env \
| sed -nE 's/^(SSH_[^=]+)=(.\*)/set -gx \1 "\2"/p' \
| source
end

in my config.fish. sometimes it goes stale but a quick `exec fish` fixes it, I didn't want more stuff to run on every prompt

also both of our solutions are nice I think, no need to edit a tmux or ssh config
So we feed the M&M's to the cows and pigs, thus concentrating their powers and giving us supermeats!

When Every Ketchup but One Went Extinct
I don't like how the word "proxy" got replaced with "VPN" either, but I think it was to create a distinction between the per-connection, often single-protocol nature of proxies (HTTP/HTTPS/SOCKS) and something that acts like a whole (virtual) network interface.
Most EVs do have such a speaker. But it only plays when they're driving at low speeds where they could be a threat to pedestrians, bikes, etc. And also there's no standardization of the noise.
Not sure why downvoted.

For me, this is exactly why I do have to change the "climate control" target.

Last Sunday I spent 9 hours driving through on/off rain and sunshine.

The sun shining in adds significant radiative heat directly to my body. Climate control can keep the air temp constant(convection) but there is more to my personal comfort.
It was the style at the time: everyone wore an opinion on their belt.
