Is there any particular reason to think HTML would be high on the list of things they thought about when they decided this? It's not like the world wide web had taken over everything yet…
lots of projects, and interest has boomed last year because there has been lots of money sloshing around. but it's very much the wild west. just look for cool tech and not for get rich quick schemes and your bound to find something to your liking!
It's sort of neat, but for me, the longer you look at this images are they really different from visual lorem ipsum?
Their notes about vulnerability severity are particularly interesting.

Defenders of C/C++ frequently note that memory safety bugs aren't a significant percentage of the total bug count, and argue that this means it's not worth the hassle of switching to a new language.

Google's data suggests that while this is true, almost all severe vulnerabilities are related to memory safety. Their switch to memory-safe languages has led to a dramatic decrease in critical-severity and remotely-exploitable vulnerabilities even as the total number of vulnerabilities has remained steady.
> Without ongoing development, FORM will get less and less usable — only able to interact with older computer code, and not aligned with how today’s students learn to program. Experienced users will stick with it, but younger researchers will adopt alternative computer algebra programs like Mathematica that are more user-friendly but orders of magnitude slower. In practice, many of these physicists will decide that certain problems are off-limits — too difficult to handle. So particle physics will stall, with only a few people able to work on the hardest calculations.

This seems very pessimistic view. FORM was written by mortal humans (with much cruder tools!) in the first place, there is no reason to believe it couldn't be done again if need be and even improved in the process; its not some irreplaceable artifact descended from heavens.

On the other hand, I imagine it would take bit more than just maintenance to make the 30 year old C codebase welcoming for new physicists to work on.
OK but... what's happening here is SD is capturing textures and some of their relationships. It clearly has no understanding of the objects it's generating.

So the output is a kind of Dali-esque mushed up melted version of the original content.

It's entertaining because it's simultaneously referential and heavily distorted in unexpected ways.

You could use this a manual art technique, and it would be interesting-ish.

I'm curious if it's capable of getting to the next stage, of understanding and distorting the actual design relationships in these objects to the point where it could deepfake catalog pages and they'd be indistinguishable from the real thing.

I suspect there's quite a gap between that stage and this one.
The article doesn't mention what was promised, so I'm going to go ahead and assume that nothing was actually promised, and this is the NYT being NYT.

Remember when we all instinctively trusted NYT?
Good to know! I still hope you can find a better place to host the files, but it's nice knowing the problem only happens once per file (so long as the cache remains anyway)
Know Your Customer means that it won't work at scale because the government will shut it down.
I've only started scratching the surface, but that rust really wants you to use Cargo, while we have our own homegrown package manager, and cmake creates a lot of friction.

I can tell you that bad programmers can write bad code in Rust.
Coinbase isn't actually taking any cut of the transaction. The gas fee goes directly to the blockchain network itself. That fee varies depending on the total number of transactions, so as far as I understand it's actually not possible to have it go through Apple's in-app purchase system.

I'm not supporting Coinbase here, though, and I wouldn't be mad if this policy were actually just a tacit way to ban cryptocurrency transactions in the App Store. But your analogy doesn't fit.
If you want to check for overflow, then you can use the methods that explicitly check for overflow:

So this is not an issue at all.
What a list like this misses is some sense of proportionality. We don't need to stress over everything that causes fluctuations on sperm count. The science is not there yet, but personally I am going to bet >50% of the reason for decreased sperms count is because of high protein diets (which correlate to lower testosterone) and high BMI.

Agree: "writing" can be seen as producing output (text), but the _process_ or _ritual_ of writing also has positive consequences.

By repeating a ritual around writing (e.g. with coffee daily), you _train your mind_ to be more creative. The first few times you try to write it's hard and pointless. But after a while your brain comes out to play! It's refreshing and quite invigorating to be able to sit down and write.

You also train your mind to be able to produce on command. The author David Kadavy realized he's the most creative very early in the day, even before he gets out of bed. So he has a dedicated word processor device next to his bed. Daily, he wakes up and uses it to type an essay. Then: he deletes his writing. His goal is to get creative insights and train his mind, the goal is not the writing itself.

Ness Labs is a wonderful source of interesting creative writing, I'm glad to see her on HN.

I don't think that's a reasonable interpretation of the current rules, though. Apple doesn't (yet...) demand a 30% cut when you buy stocks via an app on your iphone.
You know what baffles me? That Apple doesn't have a separate, "VIP" review process for apps that are from established, known companies.

When I see a independent developer complaining about Apple (or Google) being arbitrary in their app review process, I can at least understand how it's some low-paid employee trying to fulfill a daily quota. It still sucks, but I see the economic rationale of low-paid, low-skilled app reviewers there.

But it really surprises me that when it comes to apps from well-known tech companies like Coinbase, that Apple isn't doing a higher-quality review by people who actually know what they're doing and understand the industry. That there isn't a knowledgeable team inside of Apple making sure that corporate partners are treated like partners rather than niche indie developers.

I'm not saying a two-tier system would be more fair, because obviously it wouldn't be. I'm just saying it surprises me that a company like Apple shoots itself in the foot like this with bad decisions that then lead to bad press. It's such an own-goal. (Because in this case, the 30% cut doesn't even make sense conceptually, it's like trying to tax Amazon 30% on physical goods sold through its app.)
Awesome to see Steve's hard work taking off. TLDraw feels so good to use and I love watching him obsess over the little details on twitter.
“At first they came for our NFTs…”
GP's comment is about Stripe's service, not cryptocurrency in general. Unless if Stripe really wants to set their money on fire, I doubt that they're going onramping any hyperinflating currency.

If you're in a country with a weak currency, what you really want isn't crypto but rather a stable fiat, mainly the USD. Cryptocurrency only really helps the relatively privileged people in these countries to bypass currency controls.
I was about to write a comment that Apple's App Store earnings are basically pocket change for them, but I looked up the most recent numbers and they've exploded.

They claim they gave devs ~$64Bn in 2021. That means they collected about $27Bn in revenue in 2021, and most of that is basically money for free and almost entirely profit.

It's probably about 10-12% of their profit and grows without them having to do much at all.
Which Is Bigger, 256,000 Or A Deer?
Binance has been doing better than Coinbase by a large margin, fwiw. Their US presence is probably not as strong as Coinbase, but by and large they are the #1 worldwide exchange. US regulations are not necessary and really are just a pain in the ass because everything the US government touches becomes inefficient beyond belief, it simply relies on the owners of the exchange not being incompetent & fraudulent.
If it only required one round of correction, it's already better at regex than I am.
I have been following this account and enjoying all their posts of amazing product designs - and I didn't even realise until I read this comment that it's AI -generated!
Yes.

They found 250 bugs after analyzing the entirety of rust and all of it's packages.

There are probably more memory safety bugs in the python standard library and top 50k packages.
Tonic is awesome! We think of synthetic data/differential privacy as a different use case - trying to replicate data across scoped environments while preserving certain properties or distributions of the entire data set. There is a security/privacy component from scrubbing the data, but the original data source is unmodified, and that's where we feel risk lies. And the desired outcome isn't to add security but to produce a data set that "looks like" the original well enough for testing/modeling/analytics.

> Are the policies something like "retool" gets tokenized or faked data back, and the main app gets everything?

Yep, that's exactly right. Application credentials are grouped under classifications, and policies can be included/excluded across classifications. We aren't passing authz through JumpWire but for something like Retool you can configure it to connect through different proxies for different users.

> I prefer self-hosted and reasonably auditable code for such sensitive systems. Is that the case here?

Exactly. The engine which interacts with your data is almost always self-hosted, and the web app also can be if needed.

> At my scale (50 person company), it works reasonably well enough with just me maintaining it.

Makes sense! No reason to add more tools to your stack yet if the custom process isn't too burdensome.
> No, only the ones sent using their hardware.

Apologies if I'm misunderstanding, but are you saying my iPhone belongs to Apple?

(I may be confused by how you mean "their hardware".)
I did not say that in any means, shape or form. I said that all people need someone to help them when they are old, so all people have some responsibility these "someone". The "someone" are children of people, so society needs people to have children that will become adults and be part of society; all people, if possible (medical conditions are usually the accepted exception).
5 to 12% depending on what plan you get.
Who is the actual market for that kind of integration?
Yes I have. Yes it is.
Agreed. Altos Lab comes to mind, and somewhat unrelated mission of Neuralink also sounds very promising.
I like how Stable Diffusion generated a SanDisk looking logo - a company that was found, according to Wikipedia, in 1988.
This submission's title mentions "2FA". The first post in this thread is about OAuth. Nothing in here is about anything but the "enrollment".
Yes, a single 60-Hz-frame delay (~16.7 ms) can certainly be noticeable.
> App Store revenue is pretty close to hardware revenue at this point,

Fiscal 2022 Services revenue is 77 million and iPhone revenue is 220 million, so it's not there yet, but it's beating iPad (29 million) and Mac (40 million) combined which is nothing to sneeze at.

I don't think that Apple discloses App Store revenue separate from Services revenue

> If you have used crypto currencies in real life, ideally for more than speculative investment, would you be willing to share (parts of) the experience? I'd be very curious to learn more about this part of the puzzle of crypto.

> How did you acquire crypto? What did you use it for? How did you feel about the transaction? Would you do it again?

i got some Bitcoin back in 2012-2013 when people would operate faucets. i realized most of those faucets worked by displaying ads and just giving users a cut of the ad revenue. i spun up my own faucet on the same principle and made a bit of $BTC that way. since the ads only pay for human impressions, i gated the faucet behind a captcha, but i got clever and wired that to an API where the captchas i showed my visitors were actually sourced from 3rd parties who wanted their own submitted captchas to be solved by a human and were willing to pay $ for that.

i killed the whole thing a month later once i properly confronted the fact that i was enabling bulk spammers by doing this.

since then, i’ve used crypto to purchase VPNs, shared data replication (i.e. i want to backup 1 TB of data offsite, and also i have 2 TB of free HDD capacity: i’ll back up your data if you & a someone else backup my data), and the occasional donation to charity or “content creators”. i used Sia/Siacoin for the storage bit, but the UX was a little weak and i’ve just gone back to Backblaze in the meantime — will revisit the area at some future point. as for the donations bit: it’s nice to be able to donate to a project anonymously so that it doesn’t impact my relationship with the devs/artist/etc. even “independent” media outlets are in a weird place where the desire to keep advertisers causes a bit of self-censorship, but the authors don’t want to paywall their work because that limits their audience; sponsorship (Patreon style) plays a role here, and enough people have been bitten by Paypal/Patreon/others that things like Bitcoin have a small foothold.

i’ve also used cryptocurrencies to purchase medications before getting an official diagnosis, and then take these findings to my GP or a specialist and get proper prescriptions for whatever treatment worked best. it’s generally faster and a bit more intuitive than working through the official healthcare system from start to finish, and people have so far been surprisingly receptive when i list my symptoms and then say “by the way i’ve tried medications X/Y/Z and had the following experiences with them: …”. make of that what you will.
Oh neat, how very newsworthy, a decade-old project that hasn't been updated in nearly a year.
I'd never seen these circuit/code/breadboard emulator/visualizer widgets, those are very cool and help illustrate the article along with the code snippets, love it.
Unfortunately, the thing that makes me competent Civilization player is that I spend a lot of time playing Civilization instead of working. I'd be happy to take a job on that basis, but I'm not sure I could keep it.
No it isn't. It's just evidence that it's a trade-off you might want to make in order to achieve some other goal, specifically security.

But if "security" isn't remotely a concern for a given project (like almost anything graphics / gaming related), this is not at all evidence for changing anything. It could be that Rust's optimizer eliminates the bounds checking so regularly as to be a moot point, but this isn't saying anything of the sort. It's saying that the cost, whatever it was, was judged to be worth paying for the improved security for these projects
Honest question, but is that really what's going on here? Is the analogy 30% of forex transactions, or 30% of the fees charged for forex transactions?
When I was 13, my dad gave me every single Beatles CD (that was released while the band was still together). It was a phenomenal gift. I don't have the CDs anymore, nor do I listen to the Beatles particularly often these days, but I will never forget the joy of exploring the band's whole discography in my bedroom. And it was a very thoughtful gift — the movie Across the Universe had just come out and my classmates and I were mildly obsessed with the Beatles, which my dad noticed.
>...this move does feel like they're just going to encourage more and more of the net to be blocked off behind a paywall.

On a personal level I have no problem with this. It's just one way of moderating and curating your community. Not everyone has the time and resources to deal with a free for all.

It's also worth noting that the "Rust way" often ends up being clearer and better structured, in hindsight. Rust forces you to think through questions of ownership and identity more than most languages, and a lot of "structuring programs the Rust way" is just expressing these things.

Of course, that's just "often," not nearly "always." There are many valid programs that the borrow checker struggles with, and in those cases, the "Rust way" is just needlessly convoluted. There are many problems for which the most common answer is "just store all this data in a list and use list indices like pointers." (Thankfully there has been a lot of progress on a new borrow checker that's less easily startled.)
Unclear what you mean by user input - for arguments, `std::env::args()` exists, and for stdin `std::io::stdin()` exists and provides various read functions.

let mut line = String::new();
stdin().read_line(&mut line)?;
println!("input: {}", line);

I suspect that there _have_ been some changes since you last looked - for example, the ? operator lets you propagate errors in a more compact way.
Acceptance is less about storage space, but about gatekeeping for "quality". Which in turn is about what papers are going to get read, because nobody has time to read all of the papers. People rely on high-reputation journals to narrow down the time they spend reading.

The number of peer reviewers may be one limitation, but I think the main one is the number of readers. The hard limit is how much time readers spend reading. Getting access to that is hard.

Anybody can publish. You don't even need a journal; just put it up on your blog. But as with all blogs, the hard part is getting anybody to care that you've done it.
Not sure why this is being downvoted.
I send USDC on eth pretty frequently and for larger amounts find it more convenient than Venmo or Zelle. For smaller amounts it would only make sense if other people are already using L2s, which might happen through website integrations (or not).
Sorry to disappoint you but if Rust had adopted higher-kinded types they wouldn't need to write a function `try_for_each` because it would just be a generic fold-and-collect-effect function that works for all effects not just Try:

traverse_ :: Foldable t => (a -> ExceptT e IO b) -> t a -> ExceptT e IO ()

Of course I'm not saying Rust should have this (there are good reasons why this isn't a good fit for Rust, see http://smallcultfollowing.com/babysteps/blog/2016/11/09/asso...) but it really caught my eye that you called `try_for_each` obscure; it could have been an everyday function if it had a bit more expressiveness.
Yes it will, easily. Just not in Manhattan.
Yep. Then they saw Spotify and the like attacking app store and decided it's a hot moment to pile on.
If a network loop is involved, it could be a small amount of traffic that is getting trapped in the loop. Would need to know way more about the network setup and config though, and I would've thought most cheap home switches would run some sort of spanning tree.
Well, the two sentences following your quote read:

> 2. As regards sperm DNA defects, caffeine intake seemed associated with aneuploidy and DNA breaks, but not with other markers of DNA damage
> 3. Finally, male coffee drinking was associated to prolonged time to pregnancy in some, but not all, studies.

And then goes on to conclude:

> The literature suggests that caffeine intake, possibly through sperm DNA damage, may negatively affect male reproductive function.

The whole abstract points at weak/inconclusive results, but we're definitely talking about caffeine here, not sugar.
> the people who use LBRY also know the risk

I'm not sure how you came to that conclusion. How did you find out that lbry was largely uncensored and unmoderated?

If you showed lbry to your parents, what would they think? My bet is they'd think it is or is like YouTube. I doubt very seriously that any random person just finding out about lbry would expect to find snuff videos when they're searching for anything.

Even on an open browser, you just don't randomly bump into extreme shit on the same scale of lbry. I've run into such things maybe a dozen or so times in the decades I've been online, and then several dozen times in the year or two I used lbry.

The scale is different, and the expectation is different. People understand and expect that a browser can show you anything, and we've had parental controls on browsers for decades. Also, browsers don't host and distribute content, they allow you to access anything from anyone, and you generally have to make a conscious effort to find something.

Lbry hosts and distributes extreme content, with no real intention to moderate it. In addition, it's extremely common to accidentally run into something like a snuff video or straight up porn.

Lbry could moderate this kind of thing on their service, a browser cannot moderate the entire internet. That's what Apple is objecting to.
I found the Switch to be highly effective as preventing pregnancy if you keep it in handheld mode and bring it to bed with you.

When partner attempts romantic activity, tell them you need 5 more minutes of Pokémon and the problem is solved completely.
> there's a reason why people aren't telling you problems immediately, perhaps reflect on that.

Inertia?
There is also a lot of pressure on women to "have a career" which contributes to them waiting to marry and have kids. It's not really possible to optimize both being a mother and having a career, it's all tradeoffs and those who choose motherhood and a more domestic life are made to feel like they have sacrificed or lost out on something.
