From an interview with the founder of Wordpress - "NVC - non violent communication". I didn't find a "best" book to describe the basically simple process though.

As far as problem solving specifically I enjoyed taking the CFA exams. Particularly L1 was good for looking a Financial problems.
Yeah I personally feel for the rep, they were indeed under attack. But there is no going around it, a company that advertised a product as being e2e encrypted when it really was not, having multiple levels of ties with the CA was enough to deem the CA as unfit.

I agree with this conclusion because the CA ecosystem is a fragile one if not governed strictly, since the risks are of the highest concern to the general use of the Internet.

Is it? From what I've seen it's more of a Instagram clone and I am stumped as to why folks are switching to it as a Twitter alternative.

I'm curious about how to get the most out of this one. Do you have any recommendations for how to read it? e.g. did you go front-to-back?
I shudder to think of a day where the only way to spend and receive money offline is through banking and financial systems (Layers 2-3), which (likely due to today's KYC laws) inevitably require outing your deadname in order to send and receive goods and services. This is already largely the case for online payments, in bank transfers (which in their current dysfunctional state, not only reveal your legal name to the recipient directly, but require you send your order ID and legal name in an email side channel because the chip-transfer message doesn't carry enough information to tell the recipient what the money is for), and PayPal (PayPal business accounts do not actually hide your account-holder name from the money recipient, as I found out by being doxxed after creating one). I've only found a narrow exception where Privacy.com credit cards allow the use of a pseudonym once you've doxxed yourself to Privacy.com, and the small fraction of people on Citi can use True Name Mastercards to pay (and again not receive money).
Jeez, I knew people would comment on this. I put it in quotes because I don't mean turing complete it in the technical sense, but as an analogy. It is "fully functional", you can achive basically any result that you can with Flash. Analogous to the fact that a Turing complete system can simulate any Turing machine, I mean a certain interactive graphical programming environment - like HTML5+js for example - can remake any Flash game.

But that "Turing completeness" or "result achiveability" is not at all the interesing point.

The point is that despite this "completeness" or "equivalency" there is a difference. You could write a line of business application in plain C or say even FORTH, but it is probably easier and makes more sense in C# or Java. And you can create great games and animations in HTML+JS, but something was lost in the experience, and in the tooling, that was available with Flash.

The thread is hilarious.

The accused being passive agressive to essentially the judges is mind boggling.

I also like how the TrustCor person in the discussion claims the spyware was by a rogue developer and they can't do anything about that and gets the reply from the initial poster:

"This same rogue developer set up a proxy to receive data sent by the SDK and then forward it on somewhere else. This involved compromising one or more machines owned by TrustCor. This compromise went undetected by TrustCor/MsgSafe for 3+ years."

This compromise was undetected by the CA for 3+ years. Q.E.D.

And from Google [Edit: was Mozilla, thanks] "I tend to agree at this point that discussing the merits of the claims might be superfluous, because the conduct of the CA's representative is a more urgent issue [...]"

What does Twitter do that requires an app that doesn’t work on safari? What did Reddit do that requires an app that safari can’t do? LinkedIn? Steam? EBay. Amazon. Google maps. Discord. Slack. What do these do that can’t be done on safari on iOS?
Will point that customer to ruffle. They are not terribly sophisticated, technically, as you can imagine. Nor do they seem willing to spend any money to fix the Flash problem. Nothing about the site needs Flash, it could be implemented in plain HTML+Javascript. They just don't want to pay anything to do that.
You can still do that with wasm by splitting the code. You need to loop through js to connect them, but for things like levels, you can likely do that or just memcpy between those environments.
>So just long tap and uninstall them? It’s not analogous to the Windows Start Menu showing ads you can’t turn off.

On the contrary, it's exactly analogous to Windows start menu ads as they are just icons that you can tap/right-click and uninstall, exactly like on Apple.

But I do love the HN double standards here:

Apple ads: "Pfff, just tap and uninstall, nothing newsworthy here."

Windows ads that you can also right-click and uninstall: "OMG, the audacity from Microsoft, let's up-vote every single FUD blog post about this while frothing at the mouth."

I having a masters in Computer Science could never make my way through GIMP, tried quite a few times. I have never seen a more complicated UI (while I was at least functional in Photoshop). Thankfully hundreds of online image editors arrived in last few years that did precisely what I wanted in a much easier way.
It's a meaningless statement that can be said about anything. It's more complicated.

I don't see anything about "the great trans bathroom debate"? It seems extremely reductionists and dismissive to boil it down to that.

> The difference is that she's an influential author with a wide reach who can reasonably be expected to think just a little more before she voices an opinion on something that affects a marginalized community.

So basically it's fine for people to have any opinion they want, except if they actually have an audience? That is literally self-censorship.

"Affects a marginalized community" is one of those things that gets thrown around left and right, but it's not at all clear to me that people really are really all that affected by someone saying "saying 'trans' and 'cis' acknowledges that there is a distinction between women born female and women who transition". This is something you can disagree with, but I don't see how it really "affects" or "harms" anyone. You make it sound like she said something horrible, but this really isn't that, and it's also something a large number of people – probably a majority, including on the left – would agree with. Previous: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33379058

The alternative is to unquestionably accept any argument from the marginalized people, and that doesn't strike me as a good idea. We accepted MLK's arguments based on the merit of his arguments, but also rejected various arguments from the Nation of Islam and other more radical groups.
That's not far enough outside the bubble. People just reuse passwords, or add a suffix to a base password, or forget their passwords and email reset each login.

They're also building a fab in Japan and that one seems to be progressing much faster.

About the Invasion of Taiwan, I kinda doubt it. They just had local elections and the president Tsai said it would be a referendum on her stance against China[1]. IF that is really the case then it seems like the Taiwanese people have voted against being turned into another Ukraine.[2]

I am not currently in Taiwan, but a couple of weeks ago I could see 3 military cargo planes land in Taipei every day. I'd be curious how it looks today.

One thing to remember is that 17(or more?) billion of those arms that are destined to Ukraine were originally intended for Taiwan[3]. With all those (western) reports of the US running out of ammunition because Ukraine uses in 3 days what the US produces in 1 month[4], and given how isolated Taiwan is on a map I wonder how wise the whole endeavour really was.

I get that there are a lot of Tech people in the valley from Taiwan that have a more hawkish view on the relationship between Taiwan and China, but can we acknowledge for a moment that a) the valley is not representative for the world or any countries population and b) we also have to be a bit realistic about the facts on the ground.

It depends a lot on whera re you. In Galicia is somewhat doable, for example, although they have their own service calle Chave instead of cl@ve (because why not?).

The Catastro is now digital too, I managed to get a nota simple through their website.

But yeah it's always a lot of friction. There's a clear lack of integration that makes everything difficult.
Adjustment layers / nondestructive editing, text and shape effects are huge productivity boosters. It's a pain going back to a world where they don't exist - and many hours of paid labor for the employer, or taken out of your life. Missing CYMK made GIMP a non-starter for people working in print. A nice healing tool exists, but it's a pain to install as it is a plugin, even on Linux I had to hunt for dependencies from different repos.

How "basic" are these is debatable though. They are very useful, and widely used, and multiple image tools support them, that's for sure.
Enron was basically a pyramid scheme at the end. It collapsed because eventually you cannot expand anymore but also cannot justify your lack of cash flow without expanding.

Yes. Because their passwords should be linked only to their own work accounts and not be shared passwords. Even if you used lastpass at work, nothing stops an employee from storing it again somewhere else.
> illegal in the EU for a browser to drop a CA, even when they’re caught doing objectively fraudulent acts.

Right now Mozilla, Microsoft and many other privately owned root certificate mainterns control whether or not CA are trust worthy. I actually see your statement the other way around, it would be illegal for browser to support a CA when the EU deems it as untrustworthy.
This move doesn't make sense under a capitalistic point of view. This is geopolitics. The US protecting its interests, corporations playing along - they don't have a choice anyway.
Is this ironic ?
You give the example Yglesias, one of the most famous independent journalists in the US, and litterally the first paragraph of your article is about how he turned down SBF's money:

> Several months ago, I found myself having a few mocktails and splitting vegan snacks with Sam Bankman-Fried at a restaurant near my house.1 We touched on, among other things, his proposal to create a new publication featuring writers he liked, including me.

> I declined, which obviously in retrospect was the right choice. I told him that I like my Substack just fine and make plenty of money, though he was happy to offer more. But I also told him that given the extent to which we agree on a lot of important issues, I thought it was a lot more valuable to these causes for me to maintain credibility by not accepting any of his money.
According to the article, TrustCor doesn’t even own a physical mailbox. I don’t want to imagine how and where they might be keeping their root CA private key material.
For future reference, the relatively casual term you want here is "Pacman-complete". :)

There is also the inflation reduction act that is very enticing to European industry giants that are facing hardship or downright insolvency due to their own governments stupid energy sanctions game. In fact NOW suddenly Macron and Scholz find it unfair that the US is snatching these company's. I can't say I have much sympathy for Europe. Well played US.

No, because commuting costs were never taken into account before :)
I had the an opposite experience. I had a rich kid pull a knife to my throat in a fancy private school, the fanciest of my city, which is why my parents got me in. And he went by with a slap in the hand.
I got kicked out of it because after several years I became confrontational to the teachers, which is what mattered to them, and went to a public school, where things went mostly fine. Kids could still be mean, but they were not untouchable because pedigree, so things were more reigned in, and kids were more inclusive and less worried about in/out group.
Then came back to a different private school, and even if it didn’t get to the same awfulness level because I was more on the defensive, it was once again the same casual ostracism.

This isn't about "getting it wrong". This is about the use of a certain kind of language like "The company fell". No, "SBF and his chums lost and stole a lot of money". It's exactly like the "Crowd hit by a van" type of language instead of "Terrorist kills 10".

The US has less "skin in the game" now that the TSMC core tech can be found on US soil - that's what the parent and me are referring to. Taiwan is not able to defend itself without US aid.

Realistic facts on the ground for you:

The prime majority of rural Taiwanese who don't speak English are even bigger sinophobes, and have even less relation with the mainland.

Most Sinophilic area in TW is Taipei, where the highest concentration of migrants from China live, and from where the lion share of immigrants to US comes from.

What "facts on the ground" you expected to see?

It definitely is. I was hoping to have an open discussion rather than being downvoted to oblivion.

What I'm observing is: there is a sudden rise in adult ADHD diagnoses. Big pharma is pushing marketing around ADHD, there are viral themes on TikTok etc. about ADHD, and you have the rise of subscription services like donefirst.com. Social media sites are being flooded with posts exactly like this one. What is going on exactly?

Maybe there really is a large number of undiagnosed ADHD cases that are only now getting diagnosed, as people are being made aware of the symptoms? Are there really people, aka "normies", who don't procrastinate, and can just sit for 8 hours doing intense knowledge work without any kind of stimulant?

I'm not seeing where she's provided answers to the questions that really matter. All she's done is to talk in a patronizing manner to the CA members regarding their inability to understand corporate structures, as well as never answering how or why a MITM companies' SDK ended up being embedded in their app.

Further, even in times of stress, lashing out isn't the best decision. If I were interrogated by a cop and I called them a bunch of names, I would attract additional charges, on top of being suspected of commiting the crime that I've been accused of.
The GP phrased that way too much like an allegory from under a rock and not enough like an internet comment.

(I think) He means that digital currencies remove plausible deniability.

The Polish government can both claim to crack down on gambling to its conservative supporters and at the same time avoid investing too many resources in pointless anti-vice enforcement. The second they have a digital ledger of all transactions in the country, they either have to get real with their conservative supporters who will vote them out or really go after all the people gambling whose bookies will drag them out from their beds.

Politics is a balancing act.
I don’t know if its intrinsic or because he started learning/playing with math from an early age but in any case there’s no doubt his mind worked “differently”.

There’s people I know that can quickly understand complex ideas that would take regular people several hours/days to grok. Some humans just have different kinds of brains; either they’re born with it or through their love/training their brain is great at understanding knowledge. I don’t think thats very controversial?
The problem here with Rachel behaviour is not if they are guilty or not. The problem here is that there is an expectation that a CA have a certain standard of behaviour and ability to handle... well adversarial situations. Because that is what a CA has to do! They are the beholder of our trust.

By behaving like they do and more particularly not providing any of the proof asked in the process, Trust is broken. They do not demonstrate they have their shit together, do not demonstrate they understand the process nor the problem, and in general shows they are not equipped in term of knowledge and skills to be a CA.

That they are guilty or not do not matter anymore at this point. They have failed at a more basic level of being a CA. They cannot do the things we expect a CA to do. Them being breached or using their power for bad things do not even matter anymore.
Not anyone who needs to edit images in a professional sense. They arrive, try GIMP because they’re told it’s a Photoshop alternative then leave when they see the lack of normal features.

It’s actually even bad for students because to create with GIMP you have to do early 90s image editing workflows which are no longer used in real jobs.
Oh absolutely, I can't say I disagree with you. But I'm just saying that it also means that if the US drops Taiwan they do have a lot of politicians that are sympathetic to mainland China. So it doesn't necessarily have to be an invasion at that point.

It's like evilsite.com requesting OAuth permissions to my Twitter account, no? We don't need the RFC for that, it's just what OAuth normally does, and you're supposed to be careful who you give permission to, no?
