Max, CoFounder of Ditto here

So happy to see the support from the Hacker News community.

I should mention Ditto is a massively ambitious company, we are doing fantastic with traction across major industries.

Our entire core code base is written in Rust and I know HN goes crazy for Rust. If you’re really interested in working on very hard problems like CRDTs, partial replication, query based replication, peer to peer adhoc sync, mesh network or distributed security: please definitely take a look at our openings.

You’ll work on problems that are incredibly difficult, unique and rewarding that you won’t find anywhere else!
We hear you! As we build, we’re prioritising certain use cases. If you’re an entrepreneur (or know one), that can relate to the pains of creating your first cap table, explaining burn to investors or managing your P&L in a spreadsheet, we would love to chat.
I love my merino wool long underwear, its both incredibly comfortable and very warm. For everything from skiing to work, to lounging at home during the winter.

Hands get cold? Better brew up a cup of something!
> It doesn’t really

Yes it does, that is the explicitly stated assumption of the GBD.

“As immunity builds in the population, the risk of infection to all – including the vulnerable – falls. We know that all populations will eventually reach herd immunity – i.e. the point at which the rate of new infections is stable – and that this can be assisted by (but is not dependent upon) a vaccine. Our goal should therefore be to minimize mortality and social harm until we reach herd immunity.”

I've been looking for tools that make it possible to overlay graphics onto someone's face in real-time. Basically facebook's AR suite but something I can a) use at 1080p and b) actually record from or pipe into OBS.
It depends on how much you trust your family members and whether you worry about non-root malware.

Looking at my Linux machine, I notice that the default permission for home directories is 755. If I don’t think to tweak that, then I’m potentially exposing a lot of sensitive data to other users (and potentially the programs they run).

I’m a proficient Linux user but not an expert, and I’m racking my brains to think of what else might be exposed to other users on my machine.
In that case the argument should be about whether or not it should be a criminal offense at all (meaning whether European CEOs should be jailed in the case of malicious actions against their users). The fact it would theoretically extend to people in the US (good luck extraditing them) is IMHO not really an important thing to consider.
Hello everyone! I've written this article because I was struggling to start with Kuberentes about a year and a half ago, and I wish someone would have told me these things before I started to make things a little easier. I'm open to questions and criticism as long as they're mindful and polite. Hope you find this helpful!
LN is a "re-centralization" of a decentralized asset.

From day one anyone in the know with Bitcoin has said LN is a scam and/or completely pointless for the users.

LN is a way for big central authorities to lock away and control the assets of individuals, sounds like a bank right?

Amazing that such an obvious scam has gone on for so long and gathered so many "users".
If it costs in the same ballpark per seat as a long range private jet, then for nearly all city pairs under roughly 5000km it's difficult to find an economic justification.

Especially if the plane needs long runways to takeoff.

Due to the travel times others have touched on to the major airports in nearly all big cities.

Lighter private jets have a huge advantage in travel time of being able to take off from the closest small airports.

If it's a really long route, like Sydney to London, then it would start making sense. But this could not support the thousands of engines needed to break even on R&D costs.
anyone know the gist of what tech companies will have to do in order to be compliant?
Very good questions! I was actually thinking about that right before launching last night!

I'm planning to blacklist certain problematic hostnames and not let folks add them.

In terms of rate limits, it does have rate limits when it comes to collecting analytics (if you spam click a link >10 times in 10s it still redirects you but it stops recording clicks.

I can't think of how URL looping could bypass checking – could you elaborate?
Yeah, and sometimes that's the point. Some sites do this probably to improve viewership of older articles. I don't understand why a university would do this though.
> Do you also start/stop the modem on your phone whenever you need it?

Yes, I do (effectively). My phone spends a large percentage of the day in airplane mode.
> Perhaps it won't be as easy as toggling a switch next to your friend's photo to take their clothes off.

Unless an existing reference image exists - whatever the switch does will be a guess. Many motivated folks already do this with photoshop; it’s all over 4chan and similar message boards (request threads) and has been that way for at least a decade.

This is already the reality for celebrities with photoshop - their likeness is returned unclothed in image search.

Merino wool is magic, I only wear that these days. It never smells, dry very quickly, warm when you layer it, cool when you use a single layer
How come they don't add a real time layer based on a simple ML analysis of the transactions?

There are many, relatively simple, models to do that in real time.

Volkswagen has definitely been fined less than Google - they were fined about a billion. The difference is though that the EU wasn't really prepared for the Volkswagen fraud - there was no standing law setting enormous fines for companies engaged in an emissions fraud of that scale like there is for GDPR violations. Since the scandal they brought in legislation to prevent it in the future, including fines of up to €30,000 per car sold violating the emissions guidelines.

EU regulator powers operate with an honestly fairly limited scope based on the laws passed by parliament and the commission. There's no EPA like organisation with broad powers to persue companies for most forms of misbehaviour like there is in the US - that's left to the member states, with countries like Germany and Italy individually prosecuting Volkswagen executives for fraud.

The difference with GDPR and anti-trust violations is that the EU has been deliberately granted the power to exact severe fines on companies for each individual offence. If post-scandal Volkswagen had been caught falsifying emissions again and again (similiar to Google's repeated GDPR violations) they might have been hit with more and more fines of the severity that Google has.

Yes. I don't see a single one of those comments implying that Rust developers didn't know about proper abstraction in 2016.

The closest might be kaoD, who says:

> I'm sure they were more concerned with making the code work, making it secure, etc.

i.e. proper abstraction was not their priority at that time.

I think you are reading into these comments and finding meaning that doesn't exist.
I wonder how people continue to work at Facebook. I know they tend to have the highest salaries from the FAANG groups, but still. We, as engineers and builders, have the responsibility to think critically about how the things we are working on will be used.
He has been publicly exposed twice as a liar once at the start of his career and once again recently when he was effectively 'fired' from being Prime Minister for telling lies about partying during covid lockdowns. He wrote a whole load of dubious 'opinion pieces'[0] for the Telegraph before he was editor of the Spectator that contained 'facts' about the EU that were patently untrue. Anyone looking at his credentials when giving him the job of editor of the Spectator would surely have been aware of this. Therefore we should doubt wether the information in it is reliable. The best way to think of The Spectator is probably just as a magazine containing mostly what would be called 'opinion pieces' on Conservative policy ideas.

[0]In case I'm using terminology that is different in other countries: In British newspapers there are two types of article, normal journalism with verified information and 'opinion pieces' where a writer, typically a journalist or politician is invited to give their opinion on current events.

Where does say "You will not get COVID if you get these vaccines" which you said was the official narrative?

It's to the point where I, as someone who has used reddit for over a decade now (somewhat regrettably), will never, for any reason, ever click the snoo/homepage link in the top left corner. The thought of doing so reminds me of the nuclear waste repository warning:

Fences are meant for serializing. Although the intel documentation says CPUID, you use a fence there. This should be obvious, as if you know what a fence is, you know they're entire purpose is serialization. I'll put what the manual says on them, but it's not a hard concept, the intel manualy literally says sfence = SERAILIZES STORES. Lfence = SERIALIZES LOADS. Mfence = SERIALIZES LOADS AND STORES. You clearly have ZERO idea what you're talking about if you don't even know what these simple instructions mean. So to answer your question in the quoted text, where it says to use a serializing instruction, it means to use the appropriate fence! Not only this, but your entire premise of a properly written getter/setter being "Wrong" is entirely wrong, as the entire reason for a race condition is having improper getters and setters!

Here are the following fences referenced in that article, and any good asm programmer will tell you that fences are used for this purpose(NOT CPUID)

LFENCE: (Intel manual Vol. 2A 3-585) *Description* Serializes load operations
Performs a serializing operation on all load-from-memory instructions that were issued prior the LFENCE instruction.

MFENCE: (Intel manual 4-22 Vol. 2B) *Description* Serializes load and store operations.
Performs a serializing operation on all load-from-memory and store-to-memory instructions that were issued prior

SFENCE:(4-620 Vol. 2B) Description: *Serializes* store operations

Orders processor execution relative to all memory stores prior to the SFENCE instruction. The processor ensures
that every store prior to SFENCE is globally visible before any store after SFENCE becomes globally visible. The
SFENCE instruction is ordered with respect to memory stores, other SFENCE instructions, MFENCE instructions,
and any serializing instructions (such as the CPUID instruction).
the MFENCE instruction.

I'm not sure what you think fences are, or what they're for. But they're clearly for serializing. And were talking about concurrency, that article is from the intel manual on multiprocessor programming, which is concurrency! Do you not even know basic terms? Do you not even read replies?
Since when is anti-mandatory vaccination anti-vaccine ? Especially since it demonstrably has zero impact on infection or likelihood of communication. Which the data showed as obvious since about July of 2021 from Israel.
You still have the massive frontal area though
There have been numerous statements along the lines of "we didn't crack down hard enough". Which would likely translate to more restrictions requiring less evidence. I'm sure the opposite side would aim for greater defiance.

The problem with both is we're talking "sides" and not "what should we do based on what we know?" There were far too many politicians involved, and they were all more concerned with appearing to be doing something on our behalf than actually acting in our best interests.

How would this even happen? I genuinely don't understand what you mean.
I've used a cheap hygrometer last winter, during which the air inside my home was always way too dry. I had to place humidifiers (with some success). The difference in humidity for inside and outside temperatures is huge. You can calculate the relative humidity for different temperatures with online calculators such as [0].

Long story short; if you still heat your home, but some degrees lower than you used to do, you are probably fine regarding mould.

there was tons of weird stuff that only memetically lasted for a couple of days before fizzling out—remember "deltacron"? whatever happened to that? pretty sure it "existed" for about two days, then everyone silently agreed that name was ridiculous and nobody would take it seriously and it kind of just, uh, disappeared...
On the Hunt for Ginormous Effect Sizes
The money of this fine is not to repair damages to individuals, it's to disincentivize behaviour. Plus if it's used for expenses of the EU, it indirectly goes to the people, as they will have to contribute less taxes.
The irony is that if Google had not licensed Android and only manufactured its own devices, like Apple does, it could restrict consumer options much more harshly without EU fines and restrictions.

It’s true, but new characters are very “expensive”, even in the free currency. I have an embarrassing number of hours in league (4 digits) and do not have all the characters unlocked. Compare to Dota where I had every character unlocked at hour zero.

But how do you know exactly in what capacity they are using this technology? The USAF flies in millions of tons of humanitarian aid and personnel every year - far beyond what any other country, military, or organization does solely.

It's not a "simp" as you say, only pointing out that they are a rather large customer who is free to implement the technology in any way they wish. You're letting your political bias undermine any sort of credible argument.
My reddit account was permanently suspended for upvoting COVID lockdown skepticism. I'm in Texas, too - I'm half tempted to use the recent 5th circuit decision to force them to reinstate my account purely out of spite.
That's probably why some LGBT folks went and founded the MCC back in the 1970s. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metropolitan_Community_Church

The institution of traditional religion played a social role in Western societies that has not been adequately patched over by anything else yet. Even as a non-religious person, I do take seriously the hypothesis that the decline in regular church attendance accounts for some of the social isolation crisis. (That is of course, hardly the whole picture. A similar argument can be made about union meetings or youth clubs, both of which have also declined significantly in regular attendance over the last half century.)

If we can let lobbyists write bills, we should be able to let privacy advocates write bills. We can do better than this.
Yes, FUSE adds overhead. However,

1. kernel page cache fully removes the read overhead for in-memory pages

2. There's a FUSE_PASSTHROUGH mode that removes that overhead for all reads & writes. I haven't studied exactly what writes LiteFS needs to observe (just journal vs all data writes), but at least for reads it seems to pass them straight through. We could well submit a FUSE_PASSTHROUGH_READ patch to the kernel, and use that to remove all read overhead. The patch should be trivial, since the full FUSE_PASSTHROUGH mode is there already.

Disclaimer: I wrote the FUSE framework LiteFS uses, https://bazil.org/fuse

Ask HN: What's your SaaS success/failure story?
Right now I see around me A LOT of single devs/microcompanies putting together something (url shorteners, cron schedulers, twitter apps, etc...) with a free tier and a monthly price if you want more.

Everything is becoming a SaaS and a culture of "indie hackers" is born around it since some years already...

It seems to me that I'm living in a bubble with people putting together a bunch of libraries/code snippets and making tons of money out of nowhere selling an "automatic twitter cats posting service" for 99$/month.

I know this is not true (at least, I hope it, for my sanity :P ), so I would like to know (and possibly learn something) from failures of HN users in the SaaS world, if any :)

Discussion open also to success stories, of course (but please add some details, not just "I'm making 10k MRR with my SaaS")!

The Microsoft YT client didn't play ads. All it did was cost YouTube bandwidth without bringing any revenue - there was no way Google was going to let that slide.

More broadly, that was also the time Microsoft was going after Android OEMs - never Google directly - threatening them with a secret list of patents that Android allegedly infringed[1]. The settlement almost always resulted in the OEM agreeing to manufacture Windows phones (HTC and Samsung, off the top of my head). As an outsider, it appeared to be part of a mobile marketshare shadow war.

1. I'm guessing to prevent invalidation or work-arounds.
It's a meta-study based on already "summed-up" attributes, so at least two levels of information loss. And it's hardly qualitative. It can easily say, "both want X", but not touch at all "how" they express this want, or how they perceive X.

> What if a scientist finds real evidence that goes against the zeitgeist

They'd be a fucking hero. I know a few atmospheric science faculty. They are hyper distraught at the data. They'd love nothing more than to find out that actually we are going to be fine. Being able to keep burning coal for centuries would be a huge boon for reducing poverty worldwide. It'd be amazing. This hypothetical researcher would have among the most positive influences on human prosperity of any human to ever live.

Journals select for novel results that upend prior work. Strong analysis that demonstrated that the existing research is wrong would be front page cover of Science or Nature shit.

By declaring that there is a cabal that will silence quality research it allows people to dismiss the entire professional community without actually doing any work whatsoever.

> The litmus test is this: It would be remarkably easy to publish fake climate science if a scientist want to, say due to ideological reasons, since we've completely silenced the criticism machinery in this area.

What do you mean by fake? Could you throw together a bunch of fake numbers that match existing expectations and get that published? Sure, so long as it didn't get rejected for lack of novelty. But this is true for everything. I could read that falling objects accelerate at 9.8m/s2 in a book and decide to make up some observations that match this and submit that to a journal. This doesn't demonstrate that gravity is hokey. It just demonstrates that paper reviewers aren't especially well equipped to identify fraudulent observations.

Also, the number of grad students working their ass off trying to get their research published and getting their work rejected demonstrates pretty clearly that it is not "remarkably easy" to publish whatever you want as long as it aligns with the existing best thinking.
> ..it boggles my mind that the name is still in use

Well, I guess it should not. I read there is some kind of rule where the older things get the higher chance they also last for long in future. Mainly because they have proved their resilience.
