FWIW I'm playing around with a design for a kind of Dactyl with hotswap switches and SMD assembly. Idea is that you can send the PCBs to JLCPCB for fabrication and assembly, order the 3D printed case and some switches, then assemble the whole keyboard with no soldering.
BlazingCDN Review 2022 – Is It Best Content Delivery Network?
BlazingCDN offers surprisingly good performance when you compare its price to other providers.
Let's be realistic, just like building codes, medical procedures and car manufacturing sooner or later we will also be subject to regulations. The times where hacking culture and tech was left unbothered are over.

Twenty years ago we were free to do whatever we want, because it didn't matter. Nowadays everyone uses tech as much as they use stairs. You can't build stairs without railings though.

Keeping the window for abuse small is beneficial to the whole industry. Otherwise bad press will put pressure on politicians to "do something about it" resulting in faster and more excessive regulations.

I hope they have very good lawyers, then. I'm not sure how they could enforce that.

That's why I said what I said about configuration management.

I guess CM is no longer en vogue, these days. A main goal of CM, is to completely reproduce the build, from stored components, at any point in the product lifecyle.

With a lot of SaaS services, I guess that it's not really possible to do that, anymore, but I'd be pretty leery of basing a business on ephemeral resources. I'd at least get a maintenance or local duplication contract with the author.

Yeah, I’m actually a little impressed to see my industry that traditionally has run roughshod over humanity, damn the consequences style, is showing a tiny bit of restraint. Nothing like what we see in medicine or law or anything, but something. I figured we’d get reigned in like banks were before doing any self policing at all (after nearly destroying society of course).
+1 on the museum

I did some consulting for Corning back in the late 2000s and took an afternoon to visit the museum. I can't recommend it enough.

Corning is an exceptional company and so much of our technology, from fiber-optics to monitors and screens to Gorilla Glass, is thanks to the brilliant minds at work there.
Eglot is a bit of a smaller implementation and from my experience tends to require a bit less configuration than lsp-mode. I think eglot was settled on as the developer of eglot specifically put in the effort to make sure people did copyright assignment so it could be easily merged into the emacs master

You need to have an exit strategy. What will happen to you if you lose your jobs and the only alternative is a minimum wage paying job? This is what most youngsters haven't had a life experience of. When you first get money you spend it freely on materialist things but it's all dependent on how quickly you learn that governments want you to be a slave to the work grind. If you have an ability to think and make decisions for yourself then you are a big problem for governments.
An interview with PL legend Anders Hejlsberg [video]
Native Russians (русичи, "sons of Russia"), were citizens of the town of Russia (now Old Russa, but old town was near to shore), which was on Russia river (now Porussia river). At times of Plague of Justinian, they abandoned their town and spread at large territory from the Caspian Sea to Spain. At about the same time Volyn` Kingdom, last kingdom of all Slavs, was broken into pieces, so tribes were left without a ruler. Nine eastern Slavic tribes and Russians are formed (Kievan) Russia. Later, Russia was broken into pieces (Red, White, Black Russia). Much later, Moscow kingdom captured Kyiv, so Petro I added "tsar of all Russia" to his title, then Catherine the great, born in Prussia, forbid to accept all official letters without "to Imperator of Russia" in the title, so Moscow kingdom changed it name to "Russian Empire", but instead of "R-oo-s-ia" they call themselves with foreign accent: "R-uh-ss-ee-ya".

The key difference with pencil and paper being that I can't produce photoreal deep fakes at the speed of processing. That's not a valid comparison.

You might be right in the second paragraph about the motivations for slowing this down. There clearly are reasons to be cautious here though, even if this isn't the real reason for the current caution.

>Generally, parents are the most trustworthy individuals in a child’s life.

Citation needed.

It's an argument against giving parents total authority. Have you heard the saying "it takes a village to raise a child"? This modern phenomenon of parents maintaining an iron grip over where children go, who they interact with, and what ideas they're exposed to is a historical aberration, and it's not healthy. Even now, as it is, we still spread that responsibility out - people who homeschool their children are viewed with some suspicion, the moreso if they keep them socially isolated while doing so, for it is frequently a sign of cult grooming.

Children need protection and nurturing, yes, but they're still people who exist in society - not property.
They have some of the best minds in the world working for them. Their knowledge of glass, the physics of light, materials, and related manufacturing is unmatched.
I think even further than that, governments would just subsidize it.
The thing is that you can learn it very incrementally. I've been using it for years and don't know more than a tiny bit. My knowledge of elisp is abysmal. But, you get to learn how to add little things to your config here and there when you find something worth trying or improving.

Meanwhile I recommend just learning the vanilla defaults as best as possible. As long as you know how to open files, save things, switch between buffers, and quit, you're kind of good to go as far as immediate usability goes. Eventually you learn a few more key bindings to make navigation easier and faster, how to use macros, shell commands, etc. But you can learn these things on an as-needed basis.
> I used to try to fight back against these guys. Slowly but surely, they purge Wikipedia articles of anything that portrays the US government in a negative light.

Speaking as an American my complaint is inaccuracy paired with volume. You shouldn't be editing Wikipedia all day, disproportionate attention is a form of state sponsored propaganda, especially paired with the kind of rules lawyering only folks getting the OPM per diem can afford to tip for.

To be clear: since I left civil society to focus on re-learning how to hack[2][3], it has come to light that they had a bunch of literal agents of foreign power operating as a cabal for the PRC[1].

(I'm struggling for a cite so don't have an exact date on that one, I had a period where I was experimenting with browser fingerprinting and archiving and got trolled a lot by folks who are ornery about Borders -- at least once the owner of... a business... instead of serving up an easter egg instead of a phish... COVID has been weird.)

Also, I interviewed as a privacy engineer there ages ago. Maybe I wasn't a cultural fit because the rest of the team kept their webcams on all the time? I said if hired I'd probably focus on getting a dot onion for wikipedia like the times did, since that would take a big load off exit nodes plus provide a privacy benefit if someone can't trust their ISP or whatever.

I hope they'll consider adding a dot onion, but on my end, my phone may have been hacked... or maybe it just crashed and it'll take a long time. There's enough ambiguity about very basic things that I may not recover some data until... [drumroll] after "the election" (sarcastic finger quotes), and I'm very sad because that means I won't be able to read the onion newsletter every day.

(I also sometimes read actual news, but mostly I just read this, the orange site, and the onion, the green site.)

How much power do the T610 and T620 consume?
*eglot (short for Emacs polyGLOT)

And major difference is eglot is slimmer compared to lsp-mode, integrates with and relies on built-ins more (xref etc) rather than inventing its own paradigm, is less cluttered by default and IME less buggier than lsp-mode cludge and now comes with emacs so doesn't need any other packages (other than language servers themselves, of course).

OTOH lsp-mode supports more than 1 active language server per buffer, generally support more features of the protocol than eglot and installs servers automatically (which may be a feature or bug depending on your system).

It comes down to utility and personal preference, but I've used lsp-mode before, found it quite buggy and cluttered, moved to eglot and have near zero LSP config now.
I appreciate when app maintainers set a standard for their dependencies. I wish it wasn't so rare.

Node needs a static dependency checker to prevent using anything that has isodd or similar useless modules in its dependency graph.
> losing ability to log into sites and services is what really scares me about losing my email.

That is also not a problem. Maybe current "login with web3" implementations rely only on your primary ENS record for authentication, but there is nothing stopping a MFA system where the ENS name is only one of the factors.

E.g: you could build a system that uses ENS as the first factor and a regular PGP client cert as the second. There are also "social recovery" systems. Even if you lose your keys, you can have a secondary address that can vouch for you.

IOW, stop arguing like you are the only one aware of the current limitations and that the thousands of people working on the space are just stupid. Before spewing ignorant arguments, you should learn a thing or two .
The next major release of Emacs is going to be awesome, because among other things the so-called PureGTK work was also merged, which means that it will support HiDPI screens properly on Wayland.
Thanks franga2000! As you rightly mention, this project is focused on authentication, and specifically acting as a client device as per WebAuthn spec [1]. The role of the client device is to marshal requests from apps (such a web browser), to authenticator devices. These could be roaming authenticators like USB/NFC security keys, BLE devices, or a phone app. Optionally, the client device can provide access to a platform authenticator -- as one of the options.

I agree a platform key store would be great to have, and in fact would be a great choice as a backend for the platform authenticator.

This is not dissimilar from how Android apps can interact with the platform's KeyStore API [1], or the Fido2ApiClient [2] for FIDO authentication. When interacting with the FIDO APIs, apps cannot manage their own keys. However, they can interact with all authenticators, including the platform authenticator, backed by the KeyStore.

I do not believe that FIDO2/WebAuthn can be generalised to a crypto API (happy to chat further about this). Rather, we need two separate APIs - like KeyStore and Fido2ApiClient on Android, and Windows' CryptoAPI and WebAuthn.

> There are a few mentions of "platform authenticators", but do we even have such a thing on Linux?

FIDO2 platform authenticators require a Trusted Platform Module (as well as a user verification mechanism). Until we have a generic crypto API which can be restricted to using TPM as its backend, I believe we can use one of the interfaces from the TPM2 software stack (TSS) [4].

We do pause, we do reflect. And our conclusion is that it's "us" who have changed, not the impact of technology.

So you can make pictures and 3d models from text descriptions. So you can get a voice to say something. But if you were determined to do bad things, you already could. It would be easy enough to hire an actor who sounds like Obama and make him say something outrageous. It would be easy enough to use Photoshop to make disgusting images.

Are you sure it's the capabilities you fear, and not the people who now for the first time will get access to them?

Are you sure "we", the wealthy, the technologically and educationally resourceful, the powerful, are so much better custodians?
Is that really true in PC, multiplayer shooting games?
Perhaps. The laser spot would be moving along with the aircraft, sweeping along the ground at hundreds of km/hour (you'd use fuel or maybe batteries to get to altitude and to land). One might even use a wavelength that would be absorbed or scattered in the troposphere, and that would not penetrate the eye. Even restricting the system to just be used over oceans could be a win.
One good case I can think of is Crinacle. Very popular for his audio measurements site and does YouTube.

His Google account got flagged for something suspicious, Google had it shut down and without good explanations. He can't even get help through YouTube support and while the old channel remains, the Google account behind it appears disabled today. The only choice he had was to file a request that lead to nowhere and he basically had to start with a new account and channel.

He explained his experience about it in this video here: https://youtu.be/Jn1b3DztWnc?t=83
I've used both, or rather, tried using both - lsp-mode never quite worked for me, whereas eglot is rather simple in comparison and easy to set up.

lsp-mode does 'more' (and there's also an auxiliary package, dap-mode, for debugging), but I guess is somewhat more brittle because of this. dap-mode I do use, by the way (for python mainly) - functionality-wise it's my favourite debugger available in Emacs.

eglot further has a single developer who already assigns copyright to the FSF (and developed other packages, like flymake, which are already part of emacs), so it has that going for it as well.

I think you missed the last part of my comment.
The general concept of beaming power from point A to point B using microwaves is itself interesting, and is a nice historical throwback to ideas that Nicolai Tesla was promoting in his later years. However, this is almost certainly little more than a niche market for specific applications, and notions about using giant space-based platforms to collect energy and beam it to earth to power factories, cities, and homes are nothing but unrealistic sci-fi concepts. It's comparable to notions that fossil-fueled global warming could be fixed by parking a giant sunshade out at Lagrange 1.

It's just far more efficient to build solar PV arrays on the ground, and to keep power on 24/7, build enough to store the energy for later use at night and in the winter. Throwing all that mass into orbit, even if in low-Earth orbit where decay and burnup in the atmosphere is guaranteed over time for the debris issue, is just a massive waste of resources, plus the energy loss over 100 km or so would undoubtedly very high.

Here's a list of more realistic applications (with a rather military-industrial flavor, although space exploration applications also exist):

> "At the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory, we have spent the better part of the past 15 years looking into different options for power beaming and investigating potential applications. These include extending the flight times and payload capacities of drones, powering satellites in orbit when they are in darkness, powering rovers operating in permanently shadowed regions of the moon, sending energy to Earth’s surface from space, and distributing energy to troops on the battlefield."

I would guess curl would add a --autoproxy switch or similar.
What you describe is exactly why people use dependencies. You just decided to trade your time for the noble act of having “no production dependencies”, while one of the 275 modules installed by Jest (real number) stole your production secrets anyway.

As for point 2, Node 18.1 I think just introduced a native argument parser.
Because of complexity, safety requirements and disposal of spent material.
Morality police usually enforce their beliefs on others - here the creators/owners of the technology are choosing how to release their work.

OpenAI have a stated mission to "ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity" and the restrictions are presumably to stop people doing things that aren't. Most of their restrictions seem to be inline with their mission:

Having seen other indexers before I suspect your implementation isn't spec-compliant or well-behaved (perhaps spoofing node-IDs? causing more traffic than necessary?)

If you want to build an indexer you should write a normal implementation and then use http://bittorrent.org/beps/bep_0051.html
I think everyone who works in or around AI has read The Parable of the Paperclip Maximizer [1].

I always wonder about the health effects of beaming energy to earth on the people near the beam. What keeps the beam narrow to the just the intended collection point? The article states it's microwaves and that doesn't sound healthy to be bombarded by microwaves. Is there something here that I'm missing about how they're transmitting the energy?
In a former life (before clouds) we had a SAN go down because of a backplane problem. It was down for days while being diagnosed/fixed and then in read-only mode for another couple of days while the disks were in repair mode. I know people say things like "you should have a backup device" or "switches are cheap" but sometimes it IS the backup system that goes down and sometimes that system is VERY expensive.
Would you apply the same thinking to nuclear bombs?
So I don't think fossil fuelds will completely go away. It's just that most use cases will be eliminated once there is a cheaper and equially suitable method of power generation.

I strongly believe in the future of solar power in general because it's relatively low-tech and reliable. There are no moving parts (other than maybe turning an array to face the Sun while it moves across the sky but this isn't strictly required). So solar power can provide power in a lot of places where it's either impossible or infeasible to build infrastructure (eg remote places, war zones).

But once solar power source (or something else) is cheaper than burning oil, gas or coal you can use that power to make fossil fuelds by sequestering carbon from air. That's not that difficult but we don't generally do it because it makes little economic sense. But this method would make fossil fuelds essentially carbon neutral.

So there are vehicles that won't make sense to be replaced with EVs. Likewise, there are places where burning fuel may still make snese. Solar power may not make sense in jungles or hurricane zones so there may be continued use of generators. I can't speak to the specifics of Rarotongo. In general though, I think the technology and infrastructure will be truly transformative on a massive scale.
