If the bot volume was high, then it would be an error to reveal it now post-transaction as it would harm the perceived value of your company for a future IPO or acquirers.

Talking up the bot problem was only valuable during the transaction as a means of price pressure.

Even revealing that “there was a bot problem and we solved it” creates meaningful risk because it still drives down the credibility of the platform as a whole.

Ideally as owner of the company you would want it’s pre-acquisition state to be perceived as “low quality / not credible” and post acquisition to be the inverse of that.

As much as we would love to know the true bot count, I suspect we are not going to hear about it anytime soon. And this is not true for the current leadership, it’s true for the previous leadership as well. Any true bot count reveal if above a certain margin from what was sold to the public is detrimental to the value of the company.
Rinse aid is completely unneeded if you properly maintain and use your dishwasher.

I never use any, and my dishes are completely spotless. 30 years old dishwasher, super hard water.

Specifically, you should:

- always fill the salt of the dishwasher's water softener once it's empty. It cannot soften the water if it doesn't get cleaned by the salt. If the water is not softened you will get spots. EDIT: Apparently US folks often have dishwashers which don't soften the water. Ugh. In Europe I haven't even heard that such a thing exists! :|

- configure the dishwasher to your water hardness.

- do NOT use detergent which is advertised as "you won't need salt". This is garbage for lazy people. It cannot properly replace the water softener. Think about it for a moment: The detergent is meant to fully dissolve during washing so you won't have it on your dishes after the final water cycle. The only way it could affect the softness of the water in the final cycle is if it did NOT fully dissolve in time. So there are two factors to be optimized which contradict - stay long enough to soften the water, but not long enough to leave remainders on the dishes. It will never work properly.

- This is not related to rinse aid, but you should know it: Clean the sieve regularly, at least every week. It will get ultra nasty with gunk if you don't. If you have no time for cleaning it, buy a second one, switch them once one is dirty and put it among the dishes so the dishwasher washes it like a dish.
You start by taking recordings of their ultra sonic squeaks, in particular the mating calls. Then you play these recordings back over loud speaker. As the conga line of horny rats waltzes in, BAM! Guillotine.

That's security of the generic infrastructure the code's running under though is it not? It's not security of say CUDA kernel code being executed on a GPU?

I'm talking about the actual HPC algorithm code heavily priortising performance (or in some cases memory efficiency), at the expense of pretty much everything else (other than correctness, obviously).
And duckduckgo
I don't care about Eich himself, I view creators as separate from their creations, so I'm surely not who you're talking about. I would rather that people use a non Chromium browser over a Chromium one, and honestly, Chromium itself is less shady than Brave due to the shady behavior I mentioned. I mean, man in the middle attacking your own browser, really?
I had a similar situation - but I figured it out pretty quickly because my Firewalla actually warned that device was an iphone in anon mode, and prompted to turn Mac spoofing off if I wanted device-level tracking. I highly recommend Firewalla for home networking issues of this sort, it’s the only thing that gives a relative networking novice like me a fighting chance.

It's cryptographically signed. it can be validated. browsers can implement it if they wish.

I mean it's not like you need it for every HTTP request, or not like DNS is slow.

yes, there are potential risks. keys can be leaked. just as in any other scenario.
It's because Apple is legally allowed to charge a fee for what happens on their platform.

They can do it as a channel cost which is a standard concept in business or they can do it as a fee for using their platform services again another standard concept.

If any government were to prevent this it would unravel the entire economy because supermarkets, retailers and services businesses would no longer be legal. Hence why after nearly a decade the App Store is still fundamentally the same as day one.
You certainly can! And that's a good example, because it exposes just how important context is to this discussion. Perf matters in certain contexts. If you implemented a list in pure Python, do you think its users would find the overall perf of Python to be acceptable?
You should start a business: a restaurant that serves your food on the previous diner's unwashed dishes.

It would be like my college apartment kitchen, so you could hire me as manager.
...but still, even with Android's importance and Google's resources, they're not planning to "rewrite it in Rust", at least not for now - only new code will use Rust.
Apple already has lending licenses for the apple pay later feature. they're not a bank though, in the same sense that paypal is not a bank.
My crow friends really liked egg yellows, cooked to a jelly like consistency. I would poach them a little extra long, so they weren't runny.

They also liked dog food, but they would always dip it in water first.
So, p0pcult cited with a Steve Jobs quote which, in this context, can only be understood to mean, "Apple is becoming/has become a company where sales and marketing people are running the companies, and the product quality is suffering for it". shepherdjerred points out that the product quality is still extremely high, so the quote doesn't seem apt.

"Apple makes some good products but is evil" is valid criticism of Apple, which shepherdjerred hasn't disagreed with. "Apple is making bad products these days because they are lead by marketing and sales people" isn't valid criticism of Apple (in shepherdjerred's, and my, opinion).

Ask HN: SVB vs. Mercury for brand new startup
Anyone have opinions on which way to go for banking services for new startup? Tbh Mercury seems like a good option because the interface and apps and all that is much easier to use than SVB, and connection to investor network. Just worried about the lack of institutional experience in case that's needed. Or do both? We are pre money obviously but plan to be high growth venture backed.
Great minds and all that :)

I guess it is also an often used square peg that fits really nicely in the square Rust typesystem hole (no, not talking about those typed holes, haskellers).
I think I have gluten-sensitivity(cant confirm). I rarely eat out. always order delivery, use plastic fork. I dont have a dish washer.
I like going to the movies by myself. I used to do this all the time when I was single. I can just watch the movie and not worry about anything else.

It's ok to go to movies with other people too, but you aren't really socializing while you are watching the movie, unless you want to disturb the people around you.
They didn't contribute that, the user already payed for it (and Apple pocketed ~40% of the MSRP). The hardware is paid for, same as the software it comes pre-installed with.

> If users have a concern, they can use another platform.

They can't. Apple locks the bootloader even after purchasing/unlocking the device. It would be nice if we could though!

> it does seem to be the kind of thing that the market will sort out...

No, I think the arbitrary limitation of what you can execute on hardware you purchased will be a bit more of a sticking point than that. At least when we're addressing the single largest corporation in modern American history, Europe seems to agree with me.
A lot of folks are disagreeing with you in the replies but I actually agree with you to be honest. I recently got a new Macbook Pro after my old one unexpectedly died and there are a lot of things in Monterey that I find highly annoying relative to the last version I was on (High Sierra). I complained about Music in another reply.

One thing that really annoys me that I don't remember from High Sierra is this weird "overbounce"/"overscroll" functionality. This drives me absolutely nuts! Preview does this for example, and actually so does Firefox (but you can disable it there).

If you open up a PDF in Preview, set the zoom so that a full page width is entirely within view (i.e. no scrolling needed), then scroll a bit to the side anyway, you'll see what I'm talking about. The viewport moves even though the full page width is in view. I've found that this triggers even when I'm trying to scroll down, resulting in a weird, glitchy scroll feel.

I feel like I should temper the bad with the good a bit though. For example I have not had Bluetooth fail randomly with this new computer, whereas it failed quite a lot on my last one -- often requiring a reboot to fix.
You're not the only one; It happens if you tell jokes, go against a herd narrative (with counter evidence) or just disagree. But really at this point, who cares.

It really doesn't matter. Downvoting doesn't mean anything unless a direct reason or reply is given. Most of the times the ones that do it to me are sometimes having a bad day or just very angry.

So it's fine, it happens, just ignore it.
Never mind the email address. If you pay them they have your real identity.

This is really what prevents me from using them. Although the search does seem to be superb.
The security BS was being sold by a sibling company, heck, the person responding is a high up in both companies. And there is a lot of evidence of them being connected to the malware vendor.

If they can't rebut those concerns/connections in a clear and convincing way, they have no business being a CA. If you are satisfied with the answers, more power to you, but I honestly don't know how you could be after reading through those emails.
What is the solution? (Don't have the focus to read, understand, and analyze the scientific paper atm.)
Being behind a NAT poses constraints for p2p technologies (you need some well-known servers to do the hole-punching and act as a relay, but that's not too different from the well-know IPs that are needed for bootstraping a regular p2p system anyway, except of course, not every NAT are friendly to hole punching, and that's a problem as well…) but that also has a significant security and privacy advantage: since you aren't openly connected to the internet, you don't casually leak your computer's IP to the random strangers you're interacting with (at least when we're talking about a NAT you share with other people, not just your ISP box's NAT) and the amount of harm they can actually do to you is significantly lower.

In the end I think the internet would actually be a significantly better place security-wise for p2p if IPs weren't directly routable by default, and NAT with all its limitations gives you mostly that.
I should've clarified: the prompt I provided was for ChatGPT to respond in the style of a "snarky hacker news comment" casting aspersions on the current state of AI. So both the tone and the opinion expressed by the ChatGPT in this case was heavily guided.
Thanks, I'll reach out next week!
Not just survive - thrive; you'll have taken out all their competition.
I see. In that case, I'd agree these fees should be fair game by the same logic. That does make me curious what's different here, if anything.
chip noob here, i thought we'd already reached the theoretical limit of chip fab sizes? lots of people are talking about 3nm and smaller in this thread? can someone explain?

It wouldn't be surprising if something is going on. Shanna Swan's research shows that male genitals (penis size and 'taint' size) are more feminine when the baby is exposed to phthalates in the womb as the levels of testosterone are lower and this leads to impaired development.
I think they meant that emacs is an example of programmable software.
> However this is not Apple products.

The App Store is a product and it’s a bad product for developers and users when Apple is using their market position to take 30% of revenue.
> While `.unwrap().foo()` is still just as crashy as an unguarded `x->foo()` in other languages

I think it is also worth noting that unwrap itself is much safer than an unguarded `x->foo()`, since it doesn't involve undefined behavior. Meanwhile an unguarded `x->foo()` allows compiler to assume that x is never null and consequently do things that the programmer wouldn't expect. The recent post on undefined behavior [1] had a (to me) quite shocking example of that [2]. So while bad Rust programmers misusing unwrap get crashes, they won't get nasal demons.

Isn't it obvious that making crypto payments easier allows devs to circumvent Apple's cut?

I don't think people would accept any percentage taken of crypto exchanges.

Let's not beat around the bush. This is Apple protecting the way it earns money, not trying to levy fines on crypto to make more money. I'm pretty sure they understand that this decision makes them unpopular with some people. Their bet is that it preserves the model where there is still a functional review system for code that runs on your phone.
Powerful servers with GPUs are expensive. Laptops you already own, aren't.
I think this will make cops less likely to use deadly force. It gets rid of the "if I don't shoot him, he might shoot me" line of thought.
Fill the salt? Configure for water hardness?

I've never heard of either of these things before. Certainly not things on my, relatively fancy, dishwasher.
I adore t3ssel8r's work, it looks so good
I worked at a Radio Shack in 1986-87, sort of a dream job for 18 years old. Now I know what it would have looked like if I showed up for work one day on LSD!
Another hardware platform, these days Apple functionally sells computing appliances, not general purpose computers. It's why I recommend Apple to all my relatives who don't want to think about the guts of the machine and I recommend windows or Linux to everyone I know who wants to write their own software.
A bit different take is DiffusionBee, if you're curious to try it out in a GUI form.

They would still take a cut. If the transaction is still happening in the Coinbase app then it is an in-app payment. It is still the transaction of a digital good.
I know a guy, who has 20 pans and all dirty, washes no 19 to cook his 2$ stake. what a legand.
My dishwasher doesn't have a salt compartment or any sort of water-softening features; in the US, I haven't heard about this feature. Apparently it's a UK thing?
Brimstone Energy / Oakland, CA / Full-Time / Onsite
Brimstone Energy is a semi-stealth company and we are looking to grow our team with chemical engineers who want to make an impact on climate change. The company started at Caltech in 2019 by Hugo Leandri and Cody Finke and from there we began to work on reducing global Co2 emissions by creating carbon-neutral cement. We are combating one of the world’s largest problems and are looking for passionate individuals to help us in our battle.

Our Open Roles:
Sr. Process Chemical Engineer (Acid Recovery and Emissions Controls): https://jobs.lever.co/BrimstoneEnergy/149fe358-6d66-42c5-b8df-0adb01df1e28

When you say "we", policy that can affect carbon emissions and even population trends to some degree are usually made on a country level. So it makes sense for highly emitting countries to reduce their emissions, not for them to be able to purchase "share" by encouraging population growth.

There's a different reason Apple should block the feature: NFTs are a scam. I have zero interest in falling for scams, I want walled gardens to protect me from them. Unfortunately they did not use this reason.
The red axis is quite confusing, as "total engineers looking for jobs" is a much more useful point of comparison rather than "new engineers" starting from 0 at an arbitrary date.

That is, it's more important to know whether we went from 100K to 110K (and how 110K job-seekers compares to the number of job openings) than from "0" to "10".

Side note: how can the "Q4 so far" graph only go up to ~1-2000? More people than that were laid off from Twitter alone.

It’s funny though, one consequence of the federation is that the domain name on the link gives you no clue you’re going to see Mastodon when you click it. (Unlike centralized services like Twitter or Facebook.)

If you wanted to see all the Mastodon links posted to HN, you’d have to either start with a list of all known Mastodon server domains and search those, or scrape all the links and pick out the ones that land on a Mastodon instance.

Never seen good performance from Neo. But if you scale it beyond what can be held in memory you are supposed to still get fast results when you explore areas of a graph. Aggregated queried are not really a valid usecase for a graphdb.
I'm also largely skeptical of the claim that Google is going to completely drop the ball here, but this is classic Innovator's Dilemma - sometimes a business can't effectively segment their existing customers enough to introduce a higher initial cost but ultimately better technology.

I think a Google Search Premium that cost $50/month would go over pretty poorly with Google's existing customer base (advertisers), but a startup can experiment with the business model with the right early adopters (e.g. Neeva).
> Take Electron,

I'd rather not, thanks. Unless you meant in the sense of "take it out back and shoot it", in which case we're bloody trying already, it's not that easy.
All the children comments to this post are amusing... Some things get worse, some get better, some things depend on the use case.

They all miss the point. The problem with Apple in it's relentless mission of maximising vertical integration, is that you are forced to align with their decisions at every single level, whether it's technical, social or political. "Cult" doesn't do it justice, Apple is has gone far beyond this.

Most other proprietary tech is not like this because the pieces are smaller with some reasonable degree of either interchangeability or combinability. Apple isn't neutral technology it's some kind of political entity. When you sign up, you are handing over all control, which is fine until they do something you don't like at which point your only choice is abandon the entire thing or accept it - I don't give a crap about NFTs, but I give a crap about some things, and I don't want to be part of an ecosystem where I can be pushed around. I don't blame the people who are stuck in it, it's hard to exit something that can define a lot about how you work with technology, they are essentially the victim of a big bully with a very difficult to stomach exit strategy.
Uber doesn't pay any cut to apple. The money collected by Uber is for services and clearly falls under:

AI solves Advent of Code 2022
I told myself I'd believe this if Rolling Stone actually talked to someone who'd worked on bots at Twitter. And they did.

"Polls are more prone to manipulation than almost anything else [on Twitter]," he tells Rolling Stone.

And yeah, the article notes Musk himself "suggested that as many as 20 percent of Twitter accounts could be fake and pledged that he would lead a crusade against bots which would 'succeed or die trying.'"

My own personal theory - pure speculation here - is that Musk just personally wanted to reinstate accounts. And he knew enough about Twitter's bots to know that a Twitter poll would get him the bot-heavy result he wanted. (Rolling Stone even notes that Musk joked about "bot attacks" on one of his earlier polls -- so he's definitely aware of the possibility.)

Rolling Stone writes:

His attitude towards [polls] has changed as the results have affirmed his own preferences for how to run Twitter. When his Twitter polls indicated support to reinstate suspended accounts and bring back Trump, Musk sanctified with blurbs of Latin claiming “the voice of the people is the voice of God.”

“I don’t think there’s anyone left to tell him [that the polls are basically bogus],” one former Twitter employee, who asked to remain anonymous, told Rolling Stone. “The number of people who understand polls that are left – it’s basically zero....”

Twitter’s polls, former staffers say, aren’t connected to tools like botmaker that can prevent spammy or inauthentic behavior.
