Reading the comments here I believe there is one detail that needs to be mentioned. Many seem to uphold the opinion that, while the feature is not for them, they aren't mad about it as they feel it brings Signal closer to the masses and is hence a good thing.

One key aspect to consider, however, is the fact that at the end of the day the feature requires code in order to work. Code can contain flaws. When working in encryption it's usually the less code the better, as it limits the attack surface.

It begs the question, just like with the introduction of their payments feature, whether the additional amount of code, which could realistically introduce new flaws, is justified by the benefit it brings to a platform that's main focus is private, encrypted communication?

To put it differently: Will citizens, dissidents and journalists in authoritarian regimes be benefitting enough from this feature to justify the additional attack surface its code has introduced?

Apple's offer after two years is a lot less than the quarter of the retail price that was mentioned by parent and will probably be much worse still by the time they deprecate them. Just not as attractive an option as parent made it seem, at least for me if I wanted to get rid of it.

The problem isn't that they lack APIs, the problem is having someone implement the support for the desired file system format.

> As a result of its overconfidence in a win—assuming it will win if the game ends and the points are tallied—KataGo plays a pass move, allowing the adversary to intentionally pass as well, ending the game. (Two consecutive passes end the game in Go.) After that, a point tally begins. As the paper explains, "The adversary gets points for its corner territory (devoid of victim stones) whereas the victim [KataGo] does not receive points for its unsecured territory because of the presence of the adversary's stones."

This isn't how Go scoring works. If there's a dispute in what's considered territory after the two "pass" moves, the way to settle what's actual territory is by continuing play.
Calling 911 for a "cut thumb" is suspicious. Could very well have a been a fight with an abuser and been bullied into saying they cut their thumb cooking.

Feast, for the most part, is a feature store that serves up features to machine learning models for inference or training. PostgresML is closer to Big Query ML. They provide the framework to building, deployment, and inference of models from within the database - using extensions for PostgreSQL. This allows analysts and other users to build models off primarily tabular data without needing to figure out the whole deployment mess.

No remotely reputable STEM PhD program in the US actually charges you tuition, they also pay you a modest wage like you describe in Europe. You might have to TA some semesters if you don't go to a top program or work for a well established prof. But the compensation even for that case includes tuition, health insurance, and stipend. It's not a bad deal especially in the early years of a program when you are actually spending most of your time taking classes and learning other background.

The capped length sounds nice, but I think the years they shave off are mostly just at the start, not the years you spend grinding out research. The first year of a US PhD would typically be separated out as an independent Master's degree in Europe.

I have no idea what the academic culture is like over there, so I can't actually say whether it would've been better with regards to the things I disliked about PhD. But the facts you presented don't make me optimistic. A lot of them I don't consider problems in the US personally, and the absolute biggest problem for me is the ridiculous professorship job pipeline.

I'd also be cautious about that 50% US drop out number. It is likely < 20% at a T25 program in any STEM field in the US, certainly in my field that is the case. Perhaps it is higher in CS because people intentionally master out after 2 years to take a lucrative tech job. But I wouldn't consider that failing with the kind of connotation "drop out" has.

I would suggest extra caution before attending a mediocre (or worse) program of course.

Yeah, hub and spoke absolutely makes sense. I think in general, though, the relays are a bit of a hack in the sense that they're papering over poor discoverability and search mostly. It makes sense to have some nodes on the network with the ability to serve up search results for a reasonable fraction of the network, but most small instances have only very limited use for taking a large feed once people have followed what they want.

There's the option of doing more with relays, such as ones offered filtered subsets out.

Undefined Isn't Unpredictable
This statement is misleading. There are dozens of papers that show the corona virus alive and well in a large variety of tissues months and even years beyond the initial acute infection.

Here is but one such paper - https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s11695-022-06338-9

> Gastric specimens from 26 (32.5%) patients and 4 (100%) cholecystectomy [gallbladder removal] specimens showed positive cytoplasmic staining for the anti-SARS-CoV-2 nucleocapsid protein in surface mucosal epithelial cells.

> The median time between initial COVID-19 infection and surgery was 274 and 380 days in the positive and negative staining groups, respectively (p = 0.371). It's not clear whether these had any long lasting symptoms since infection.

> The inclusion criteria were a history of COVID-19 with one or more gastrointestinal symptoms [during the acute phase] and a negative PCR test result at the time of bariatric surgery.

There are literally dozens of these.

The problem is that most people don't get tissues resected from inside their body when their alive and most such tissues are not tested for the virus.

With regards to the general question of persistent corona viruses, just look at FIP in cats for another such example.
I’m not an academic so maybe this is normal but 20+ “authors” of a paper seems crazy to me.

My gf and I share finances this way:

I gave her a credit card out of one of my accounts, the one with the best cash back. We use that anytime we are together. Restaurants, groceries, dog, flights, hotels, etc. the cash back goes back into the account.

For everything else, we use our own cards and if there are any balance differences, like when I pay rent from my account, she just pays more on the CC than I do.

This way we avoid sending money back and forth and we can track everything in one place. There is no burden when buying something knowing it’s fair for both without having to keep track of it later and ask for money from the other, etc.

It's quite cheap to run. It's just one small EC2 instance, and it's usually idling around a load average of 0.1 (though right now it's at 1, hehe). It costs me about $24/month. The Apple developer license costs $100 per year, so it's ~$400/year. As of recently, that's entirely covered by donations.

I am incredibly humbled by the sponsorships. I would have never thought ntfy would take off like that. I love open source and I promise it'll always be free and open (as long as I can reasonably fight of the abusers).

The most impactful disinformation campaign, by far, is against nuclear power, which is far and away the most promising substitute for fossil fuels for base power.

The most outrageous part of this is that this campaign is dominated and spearheaded by environmental groups and green parties. By successfully stopping the expansion of nuclear power, these groups have done more than any other faction or movement to increase CO2 emissions.

Anyone who mountain bikes regularly on more difficult trails will end up riding a bike that costs at least $5K. You can argue that it isn't necessary but the majority of riders would definitely disagree with you. I've never seen a $1K bike on such trails.

Of course, if you just need a commuter bike that can easily be had for $1K. Of course no one really needs anything - one could just run and save the $1K.

I found Feep while going through my coffee and ycombinator this morning. I find the idea of feep intriguing and I have just 2 questions.

1. What is your goal with feep? What are you trying to achieve? What is your grand vision? Do you have any time boxed goals/targets in mind? I'm asking because it is hard to know what to do when you don't know where you want to go.

2. Finally, what challenges or problems are you facing in reaching that goal? The one big challenge or problem you have in realizing your grand vision?
This is incorrect (at least in my experience). Firebase/FCM is significantly slower in delivering messages than the non-Firebase version (WebSockets or JSON stream, longstanding connection).

I'm with you on this. You've got to choose between price, performance, flexibility, maintainability, upgradability, reliability, etc. These are the trade-offs you make.

When people "why is this still a thing?" sometimes it sounds like they're asking "why do I have to make trade-offs at all?" which really doesn't make any sense.

Ah, yes, mea culpa. Was browsing on the phone and did miss that link indeed.

Is is also okay to store big data that would otherwise go into another storage like e.g. blog-posts?

I mean the content could also be modeled as a leaf-node and not be part of the db itself. (not sure if that would be abusing the kv storage)

That's the explorers, yes, but the settlers?

Remember that the 1700s was so cold relatively, the soldiers march even in summer with thick jackets and smokepipes.

Though, there was also the introduction of potato, which led to massive demographic explosion in the Protestant Northern Europe.

But I do see your point. Still, the Germanic tribes were the first climate refugees that we know, maybe after the 8.2 kya event [0] that led to the first cities in Fertile Crescent

Worth remembering for those wondering, could this effect Apple?

Most likely, no. Apple has every license ARM offers… and Apple actually cofounded ARM with Acorn and VLSI and had an Apple VP as its first president, and so likely gets special unlicensed privileges.

As for VLSI, it was sold to Phillips and is now owned by NXP. A company Qualcomm also tried to buy, which sells a metric ton of ARM chips themselves.

Ironic that a company Apple cofounded now is now the CPU designer for every Android phone, but so is the world.

Edit: If I was a conspiracy theorist, I would almost say that Qualcomm trying to buy a cofounder (NXP), and NVIDIA trying to buy ARM directly, were both attempts at getting some of those privileges, but I have no evidence for that.
This does look very nice!

> if you plug drives from systems with new APFS versions into systems with old APFS versions

I think it’s more likely that the newer drivers fix bugs in the drivers, make them support newer disk controller hardware, speed them up, or make them more reliable than that they change the on-disk format.

Having said that, the reference (https://developer.apple.com/support/downloads/Apple-File-Sys...) lists quite a few on-disk fields that store a version number. There may be bug fixes that necessitated changes to the on-disk format.
Correct. Though by now it is covered by donations. This is my hobby. Others buy expensive bikes or cars, I buy Apple Developer licenses. Hehe.
Keep in mind that ntfy works with a bunch of backends. You can send the notifications to Telegram, jabber/XMPP, IRC (using my own https://n.tkte.ch), Slack, etc, etc. So, you probably don't have to actually install anything new to receive notifications and can just use what you've already got.

> Meanwhile a Haskell programmer might go years and never think about HKT as a feature. It’s just “kinds” without artificial-looking limitations.

And yet, at the same time, Haskell has many, many extensions to enable certain features that would come for free in a dependently typed language, for example. I find Idris's type system easier to fit in my head, for example.

There's always a next level of generality in which previously complicated concepts can be expressed more simply, but there are also sometimes reasons not to want to reach that level of abstraction, for various reasons.

(Although in principle, I agree. I don't find the concept of HKTs particularly complicated per se.)

1) Both of those contacts are not "uber-paranoid privacy nuts" so they will be dropping Signal too for the same reason.

2) The inconvenience factor. I don't really like smart phones and would live without one if I didn't need one for very specific purposes. Being able to text close family and friends is one of those specific purposes. I have zero interest in having to juggle different text-ing apps for different contacts.

I should also add that I'm way more concerned about

a) spyware that comes pre-installed with phones that sends data to 3rd parties that have bought it

b) malware (I don't install many apps for this reason, and I like to use FOSS software for the same reason)

b) being in control of a device that I own (same reason I use Linux on my desktops and laptops)

I'm less concerned about SMS messages being intercepted, except for things like MFA codes. So of all the "contacts" that I would like to use Signal, it would be situations where the content is security-sensitive, which [unfortunately] currently accounts for virtually 0% of e2e encrypted messages coming into Signal.

Rust uses "shrink_to_fit()". Personally never had to use it, but you always end up scrolling by the backing allocation management for all the standard collections when looking through the docs.

> Shrinks the capacity of the map as much as possible. It will drop down as much as possible while maintaining the internal rules and possibly leaving some space in accordance with the resize policy.

Disclaimer: I know the developer of Ntfy and have worked with them in the past.

I love this tool because it sits in a very convenient place in the alerting and monitoring stack.

At work the kind of alerting pipelines and frameworks needed can by necessity end up being nontrivial and somewhat sophisticated. If you run some stuff at home or in the cloud or whatever, I have often wanted some kind of simple alerting but never want to deal with mocking out similar systems that I've built at work.

Ntfy sits perfectly in this space, and I've used to to frame out my own kind of micro-alerting frameworks for a bunch of stuff that I run. It's incredibly easy to encapsulate in something like a bash TRAP or even || conditionals on random cronjobs, and just makes getting some kind of alerting so trivial. As such, it's spiraled out into a lot of different stuff that I run.
For some subject areas, this is normal. Everyone who contributed something to the research gets credit. (I think in Physics the authors are listed alphabetically as well.)

Contrast that with other areas where people who contributed significant amounts of work towards research often get omitted from the work.

I note this from experience as a former academic and being close friends/family with academics.
