The basics give you enough to be dangerous, but cloud stuff has become complex enough to require dedicated people to do it well.

I'd prefer to hire someone dedicated to that and just let them work part time when the environment is simple over a developer with just the basics who's going to try to architect and run everything.

Can you clarify what this means? In this context seems like it could mean either machine learning language model or programming language grammar/semantics.
Ask HN: Which programming language other than C is available for most platforms?
It is well known that some C compiler implementation is available for almost every computable platform. I am looking for another programming language that has compiler implementations available on a large number of platforms. It must compile source code into native machine code. It doesn't have to match C in ubiquity. It can be less popular than C. But are there any compilers out there that are available on a large number of platforms?
I suppose it still holds true. Explicit photos are only something to keep hidden because there is a perception that they are wrong.

If the photos were of a pet dog playing the park instead, nobody would be concerned except maybe around realizing that the tech could also be used to expose wrongful material in the same way.
The truth, or what the state decides is the truth? Those are not always the same thing.
What does a "safe harbor" mean to you? If you're looking for uncritical acceptance, you aren't going to find that anywhere (well, you will, but those places are not going to be interesting, conversationally).

I'm pro-privacy: I think we have a fundamental (natural) right to privacy, and I support legislation that practically strengthens that right. But that doesn't mean that I agree with you on everything, and it's unreasonable to expect that.
It seems to be heading down a purely non-sensical direction. I am waiting for us to be told that who we find attractive is biased. So our dating/mating pools should be restricted to correct this embedded bias.

This AI is being marketed to companies looking to improve their diversity. If it acts as you expect, then they just go out of business. I think the more likely scenario is that it achieves the desired outcome not by eliminating bias, but by inverting it, as that is more likely to result in measurable success from the customer perspective.

My concern would really be that it ends up selecting for normalness. I could easily see it biasing against the homely, obese, people who struggle with mental illness, or the just plain weird. Would anybody check to make sure it wouldn't fail that way like they would with a more high profile bias like gender? Seems unlikely to me. I imagine some would even regard that as a positive feature.
i think that would require total replacement or abolishment of police unions.

Satcom downlinks might be low power, but uplinks, especially from dedicated base stations (as opposed to satellite phones) can easily run into the hundreds of watts.
You can easily search for one online or LinkedIn. But generally, once you start running in certain circles (think executive networking and chamber of commerce type events), you'll usually find a bunch of coaches and mentors waiting for you there. Or, at the very least, you'll have a group of people who you can ask for leads for finding a good coach.
Those were fascinating when geotagging was just becoming a thing. All they show though is that a lot of tourist locations aren't where people live and work. (If you look at the SF example, relatively few locals are regularly taking pics on Alcatraz.)

It's not that visitors should avoid locales like the Mission (personally a lot of it is probably more interesting than Fisherman's Wharf) but it's not surprising that overall areas with a lot of housing or downtown businesses don't necessarily overlap with tourist attractions (though they probably do in SF more than some other places. Seattle may be a more obvious example although there are many that make a lot of sense.

Just another anecdote: They’re the only airline to lose my luggage, and their complete lack of giving a fuck or competence in returning it was a tremendous and expensive pain in the ass. Only through pulling a personal favor with a friend in Berlin was I able to ever get my luggage.

There’s something wrong at Lufthansa. The queue to fill out my lost luggage form was like an hour long when I arrived, and looked to be just as long when I was done.
Something overwhelming of WebAuthn/U2F/FIDO2/Passkeys is that it has many different modes and settings [0]
So, my understanding is that you need to find the settings to 'upgrade' the modes from 2FA to a Passwordless alternative. Not all devices are supported.

I like this explanation in Ruby [1] [2] of all the process between the server and the browser. It also has an example you can try on your browser to see if your devices/OS are supported. Look at the bottom the distinction between Passwordless and 2FA.

I'm making a proof of concept of WebAuthn the only login option, for a toy project in PHP [0] with this library [1]
It has been an interesting exercise to understand the tricky parts of it.

Not nearly as many as are currently protected by public police. I'm sure we can find a better alternative to the status quo than "Tell grandma she needs a license and some monthly range time." Better make sure we gift her a firearm with low kickback for Christmas; her wrist bones have been so frail these past few years...

Ah right I forgot QEMU has built in 9p on Linux. Sadly it's not yet available for Windows hosts, though there's a patch in the works.

You have any suggestions for getting a foothold in the QEMU codebase?
Nope, it's not explained there:

1) These routers do not provide any kind of content filtering features
2) My particular terminal was in bridge mode
3) It's happening rarely on random websites

So, if they MITM random SSL sessions with home equipment I can imagine what they do with business infrastructure.
They don't want the US/Israel to plot a 2nd coup [1], just like with China/Russia they want to split Turkey since it's too big

Erdogan knows that very well, hence he tried to play double face with NATO/Russia (BRICS)

IMO there’s two solutions, both can be done at the same time:

- Technological solution. Implement end to end encryption, and encrypt data at rest. Use techniques to prevent third parties from gaining access to decryption keys.

- Human solution. Strengthen, and critically, enforce laws that protect the privacy of individuals. Severely punish and hold to account misuse of data & PII.

It’s not dumb luck that the first and second amendments of the US constitution both provide protections against an unjust government. I’m not a gun fan by any means, I just see the similarity between the soft and hard approaches to addressing an issue.

Well, n=2 for me, but that's not to say you're wrong.

I reached the conclusion that it's basically a self-perpetuating myth because I asked my CFO's directly about it because it comes up often.

Curious though: where are you based? My CFO's were German and... German (but the second was working in Sweden with Swedish financial rules)

Maybe it is actually different depending on location or there's some other factor at play?
when i was a student i thought that every place i went to was different until i visited japan and realized that before that i had only visited western countries. (europe, US, NZ) and compared to asia they suddenly felt pretty much all the same.

there are still differences however, and i don't agree that the local's way of life is the same everywhere.

The work I did produced working code.

Company founder decided to not pay me for work done and has come up with "reasons" for it. What recourse is available without a lawsuit? I am going to guess, it is probably none, but might be good to ask HN.

Or would HN recommend that I sell my work as a SaaS product?

Cost is always a factor in manufacturability.
During the fertile season, right after the floodplains were flooded, you needed an enormous amount of labor to take advantage of the huge area of freshly-fertilized soil. Presumably this area needed to be tended and maintained, and then of course the harvest was another time when you needed enormous amounts of labor. And then you've harvested and the plains are briefly fallow, then they get flooded by the Nile for a few weeks, and there's nothing to do. So you have an enormous amount of labor power with nothing to do for a couple months every year. Why not pay them a little to lug massive stones around to build a monument to your awesomeness? Better than having them idling in the streets!
This reminds me of iOS apps that as soon as you open them require an update to the latest version and won’t let you proceed any further (in the app) until you click OK/do the update.

It's worth reading the book then ;)

The author is a philosopher who is very careful about language and his arguments. He has written 2 other books on this topic (Drugs & Rights, and Ovecriminalization -- I read both and can recommend).

One nice point he makes is that there is no definition of what a drug is either. If one says "a substance that affects how the brain functions" then coffee, alcohol, sugar, milk, and even water are drugs.

This is a good question - I haven't studied much aside from densifying existing neighborhoods but when thinking about other options, I suppose suburbs come to mind. Before going any further, I should clarify that I live in the US and look at this through an American lens. Anyways, a primary issue with suburban affordability is that demand is high and space is limited[1]: many folks want to live in the suburbs but maintain their jobs in urban centers, and you can only have so much low density housing within commuting distance to a city. Since urban centers are where the majority of jobs are, it's tough to suggest that people "just move to the country", for example. Remote work could help with reducing density while allowing people to relocate to more remote and/or affordable places. More public transportation may also allow suburbanites to move further away (think high-speed trains and commuter rails).

I've also heard arguments for an urban model that focuses on smaller, more community-centric cities instead of huge urban centers like New York or LA. I don't have any primary sources for this, but I think the idea is to keep density low-ish, and increase the distribution of these urban nodes evenly across a region [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urban_village]. To me this sounds similar to the mundane suburban towns I grew up around.

Urbanity/density is likely the easiest[2] solution, but I'm sure it's not the only one. There are likely many thoughtful solutions that don't rely on density - I may look around to see if I can find any.

[1] I guess this issue applies across the entire spectrum of housing, which is why there's a housing crisis

[2] Easy is relative - obviously, this is has proven to be a very difficult problem to solve.

Worth noting... he says this to contrast his surprise at how well the system works in the paragraph immediately prior:

Perhaps only the more thoughtful users care enough to submit and upvote links, so the marginal cost of one random new user approaches zero. Or perhaps the frontpage protects itself, by advertising what type of submission is expected.
It almost was! In the mid-1850s a French inventor, Edouard-Leon Scott de Martinville, was studying sound, and he invented a device that could record it [1]. It was a diaphragm attached to a very lightweight pen, and when paper was drawn through it at high speed as sound was produced, it basically drew the waveform. He used it in his study of phonology.

So close! And yet no way to play it back. And trying to come up with some way to play it back seems to have eluded him, and others for a couple decades. Some of de Martinville's recordings have survived, and today software can reconstruct them into almost-intelligible speech and music. They're the oldest known recordings of a human voice.

I’ve had similar thoughts. I wrote a lot of docs on an internal wiki at a prior company, and also wrote some public docs on my site.

Anon account because I don't want this connected to my real name that I use on HN for fear of backlash.

The LMPD is horrible, you can see plenty of their failings outlined on the /r/Louisville subreddit.

I live in KY and have worked with the LMPD directly and indirectly though a past employer. I have been in the "back room" and heard them speak surrounded by people they felt safe around. It's pretty much everything you can imagine: sexism, homophobia, racism, misogyny, and the list goes on. They way they talked about the people they ostensively "serve" was absolutely disgusting, literally made me sick to my stomach, they had complete distain for citizens. This specific visit happened in 2018 IIRC. My eyes should have been opened after 2013/BLM but they weren't, what I saw/heard was shocking and completely altered my perception of the police, my mind was fertile ground for when 2020 rolled around.

At of mid-2020 I was in full support of police reform but resisted "ACAB". At this point no sane people could support the police and I fervently believe ACAB, the is no reform for this horribly broken system. It must be dismantled and rebuilt from the ground up (without using the same ~~people~~ bullies).
20 years from now there will be HN posts like "In my good old days we wrote efficient Electron apps that only used 2 GB of RAM to display a todo list, today's developers are lazy, there is no need to ask the AI to synthesize such a simple app, and certainly it shouldn't need a QPU (QuantumProcessorUnit) to run".

Not that much detail I can share publicly about detection methods etc although some of it is public because I have patents.

The reason block leave is important is that some of the coverup behaviour has ponzi-like characteristics. So say you have a hole in one account because you’ve lost a lot of money. You find a way to cover that up by booking fake trades say. Well trades have a settlement and some gnome in the back office is going to contact the counterparty on the fake trade when the trade fails to settle and your fraud will be discovered so you have to cover that up before the trade settles. So maybe you move some money from another account (by booking a trade) and cancel your first fake trade, then you need to book a fake trade in your second account which you will then need to cancel and cover hp in the same way.

Basically the perpetrator often ends up on the coverup merry go round which falls apart if the take time away.
Can one cashier really tank the entire US economy? Yes, Dylan can!
The article this comment is under is about police "breaking" the law, not enforcing it, so you can see I'm already skeptical of what you posit their role in society is. For not so important people like me the "enforcement" is non-existant, they show up after a crime has been committed, write a report, and do nothing. Not very different from no police force. The only time they actually do an investigation is when a bank is robbed or someone rich and influential is hurt. I'd rather just stop paying for the non-service I don't receive.

It is good enough. The variability isn't a problem. The US, Canada, Australia, EU, could provide 80% of the their grids from renewables, no storage, for a cost a lot cheaper than nuclear, and delivered 10 years sooner.

The case study that demonstrates this is Denmark, which has about 50% of its energy produced locally from renewables, mostly wind. They plan to increase this to 84%. They hardly had to overbuild, and they sell the excess capacity to their neighbors. Even if the overcapacity wasn't sold and was wasted, it's still much cheaper than nuclear.

This shows us that a bigger country could easily get >80% from renewables without storage. Two reasons. First, more terrain means more variability cancelling from wind. Second, solar cancels out wind, and Denmark has very little solar. Solar and wind are significantly negatively correlated, because it's less windy in Summer.

You can do even better by having a network of countries, each selling overcapacity.

Storage or gas makes up the small remaining shortfall. Luckily battery costs are declining on a super-linear learning curve.

I'm all for nuclear power, it works fine and is far better than fossil fuels. But I'm more for renewables as a mass scale solution. It's cheaper and we can have it sooner.
"executive's fail-nephews" is still much better than what it really is, which is usually underpaid slaves in boiler rooms in third-world countries right next to the phone scam call centre.

Imagine two companies merging. They both used 10.100.0.0/16. If you were in one of the companies wouldn't it be nice if the other re-ip'd?

... Guess what.. they won't and you don't want to. So you make a box, that turns your ips into 10.101.0.0/16 and theirs into 10.102.0.0/16... and you leave your IPs alone :).

Yeah, some things won't work across that bridge. But it'll get you started.
