Right. At least щ, ь, and ъ I don't think have any Latin analogue (native english speaker here who has studied Russian a decent amount).

A good way to illustrate the difference is to try to Cyrillicize Latin script.

Дринк and Drink are just not pronounced the same way.

Chinese speakers just make up names for Western stuff entirely because it can't be said. McDonald's is Maidanglao.
Seems to me that when you have a lot of forests, you eventually get forest fires. I don't see much way around this except regularly cutting down the trees. Too many people think that nature always finds an equilibrium (the "balance of nature" idea) when left alone. That's often not true. It often cycles between extremes.

One of Earth's past mass extinction events is hypothesized to have maybe been caused by a gamma ray burst[0]. I don't know enough to speculate whether it could have been caused by one of these jets instead.

Do we know if they still continued with the data scanning? I'm all for E2EE backups, but not if it comes at the cost of scanning my data.
Most people are much too self-important. If you think at the global scale, each of our existence (except those in position of extraordinary decision-making power) is pretty unimportant/inconsequential outside of the realm of chaos theory.

I think that understanding this is the first step of putting yourself in a position of power. Self-importance is very blinding.
I'm sort of reminded of how cellphone cameras became used for selfies.

I wonder what other use cases previously "serious" technology will be used for.

I remember someone had a magnet of some sort embedded in their finger and could detect current fluctuations in underground electrical systems underneath a city sidewalk.
The suspense lasted 1 minute. The "team update" and cut/no-cut emails went out pretty much simultaneously.
Indeed, I've had similar difficulties... and my needs are rather low! Basically get to the distribution-provided repositories.

This doesn't reliably work. If I get lucky and get a mirror with AAAA, all's well. If not, I may get stuck in an annoying retry loop.

I resorted to making a dumb router VM. It has v4 that everything else uses to route public traffic through

No way this is true. This would mean humans domesticated animals and began to develop farming before (or right as) they discovered how to make fire.

A big reason humans developed our modern brains ~35kya is because of them cooking food (which makes digestion on proteins easier on the stomach)
it's more likely they do this to combat spamming. accounts created by Tor are more likely to be used for spam than for legitimate discussion, since Tor evades IP reputation.

I'm sure you could email @dang and ask to be un-shadow-banned, and he would do so.
Because we don't want to use 20 IPv4 addresses for the cluster of 20 nodes, when we only have so much addresses assigned to our institute. We could have gone the NAT route, but then we'd need to have some router. And if we designate the head node as router, all traffic would not go through the switch directly, but first through the head node and then out. This would mean that the nodes are less independent, as they have this one additional choke-point. Our university gave us a /64 for this network, so we just used that and it worked flawlessly, also for university-internal distro-package fetching and host-cluster connections.

Also, research software is usually working nicely with IPv6. If we encounter something that would really need IPv4, we could update the thing and give it some local subnet - but currently we were lucky.
Hi, I was affected by this layoff unfortunately.

Plaid just gave me 16 weeks of pay, 6 months of insurance premiums, waived the vesting cliff I hadn't hit yet, and let me go with way more dignity than I've ever seen in my 20 year career (19 of those years spent at "normal" non-silicone Valley companies)...

You’d detect a software update?

I'm still not understanding the correlation between a centralized exchange and perpetuating a scam. Tether doesn't rely on a centralized exchange. If an entity, centralized exchange or otherwise, is willing to pay off the entire market to perpetuate a scam, then yes, DEXs will be impacted. That doesn't seem related to whether or not an exchange is centralized.
It happens. I'm still regularly surprised by "I wish Emacs would...", only to find out it has since 2004.
“Places to care about.” Brilliant framing. Funny to think that 90% of built areas in the US could be nuked into dust without anything great being lost. All this destruction of natural habitat and beauty and for what? The founders of this country would be ashamed.

This part had something about it that stuck out in light of the news (first just a bit, but then it kept going):

"My fantastic job with Shopify meets my physiological and safety needs, and the job is rewarding and intellectually stimulating (not many people get to work on their PhD work for so long with a team they’ve built around them and I’m very grateful.) But then what? What are you doing to feel alive and to know that you matter? How do you fit into something enduring and bigger than yourself? The Army challenges me every week, and those challenges better me and make me happier. I know that people are depending on me, and that if I don’t turn up and lead my Squadron then nobody’s going to do that for me."

Like you, not sure what to think.
The parent comment said “hole which has already been used”, that’s a claim that Apple has actually done it, not only a speculation that they could. They are being asked to back up that claim.
Coming of Age
With this graph: https://media.nature.com/lw767/magazine-assets/d41586-022-04... they attempt to claim that wildfires are getting worse due to climate change.

But the graph actually shows the opposite: Notice how there is no change until year 2000, and only after that do wildfires get larger. And they get larger - and then stay at a larger size, they don't keep getting larger. Their trendline is so inaccurate it's basically false info.

Climate change did not start in year 2000, what did change then is wildfire policy: "The Fish and Wildlife Service, Bureau of Land Management, and Bureau of Indian Affairs joined the other two agencies by implementing fire use programs in the late 1990s and early 2000s." https://fireecology.springeropen.com/articles/10.4996/fireec...

It wouldn't stop at CSAM. Along side it in urgency of appeal to fear is counter-terrorism* . Next would be drug dealing, threats of violence. Then copyright infringement.

> I thought assembly mapped 1-to-1 with actual HW instructions.

on x86 it's a 1-to-many relationship. There are, for example, many different MOV instructions that can be encoded based on the parameters used. All assemblers I know of hide this from the user, as well as featuring labels, macros, etc. which are not defined by the hardware at all. For the most part, the x86 assembler hides the details of prefix bytes and ModR/M+SIB from the user. Some assemblers are quite advanced and if you took them just a few logical steps beyond where they are you would end up with C.

Considering air doesn't typically follow national borders I think that's a bit shortsighted to say. "Much better" might not mean "better than the US" but just "better than before for Canada", which may or may not say too much at all.
This reads to me as further criticism of advertising, really. A bad movie can con enough people into paying for it and not enjoying it that it can successfully turn a profit.
Have you spoken with your audience about charging?
Have you read 1000 true fans by Kevin Kelly [1]

I'll give you my experience in the freemium (not publishing) space.

I ran a website which was VERY popular with a niche community, and popular, though less popular with people outside of the niche.

A few large companies outside the niche paid for API access to the service, and a VERY few people in the niche community paid for premium service, often just because they wanted to support the project.

The project kept growing and growing within the niche. It basically captured all the market share. No matter what we did, implementing requested features, changing pricing, the freemium users almost never upgraded.

We considered removing freemium and forcing everyone to pay, but in discussions with the community, they would say "can't you get sponsors for the site"?

Then a large company said they wanted the tech, didn't want the niche community.

So, we made the announcement that we'd be shutting down the community.
That's when lots of people started with the "oh, but I would have paid..." and still the "can't you sell advertising"?

I don't know how big your audience is, but with the volume of content, I that is available, and the challenge major publishers have in monetizing their diverse content, I think paying for publishing for most people is going to be a challenge.

But also, what are your expectations? How many paid subscriptions to do you expect to have?

I recently signed up for Benedict Evans newsletter, and was surprised that he had a "paid content" section.

I guess the point is that IF you have a following, and a niche, and a group of people who value your view (or your writing), then you only need 1000 true fans.

Thanks, that helps a lot.

This got me reading about IPv6 again. I'm trying to figure out how we'd set up an IPv6 network in the case where we have
1) Two upstream ISPs, mostly for failover, but could be loadbalanced too.
2) Internal servers with assigned DNS

My initial thoughts were that for each of the two ISPs, each host (e.g. personal desktop or laptop) would use the IPv6 prefix and end up with two addresses. But in the interest of having an internal address for internal servers, we'd need yet another IPv6 prefix for internal use. That makes 3 IPv6 addresses per host.

Does that make sense? I read about getting Provider Independent (PI) address prefixes, which would allow use to consolidate to a single IPv6 prefix, but from what I read, that costs money and should generally be used for large organizations. Ugh.
I also used Modo from version 101 to 501. Maybe it’s because of baby duck syndrome, but I have never found anything that even comes close to Modo, in terms of ease of use and workflow.

You can get the Blender viewport behaviors to match Modo, but you'll need to customize all the Input/Navigation/Keymap settings. The modeling tools themselves are mostly kind of there at a foundational level, but it’s all really clunky in comparison. I wish that Blender had the work plane and tool pipe. I just learned the Blender way to do things, instead of trying to fight it.
One must understand that E2EE is used when you don't trust your service provider to handle your data. In other words, the adversary in your threat model is the service provider - and in this case, Apple. And what good is that encryption, if Apple obviously can do almost anything with your device?

They can remotely wipe apps. They can force-install apps and force updates. It is not too far-fetched to think that they can just remotely copy anything stored on your device to their servers. So, with an adversary that capable, I'm not sure encrypted backups provide a meaningful improvement to security and privacy.
Apple loves harvesting your data for commercial use

> My face will never ever be used for a romance scam.

Imagine your disappointment if you ever find out that it was, and it did better than you ever did.
The evidence at this point I think refutes your argument. It's been the case for a while now that basically all the hardware, all the networking stacks, all the major libraries and software supports IPv6. So the reason people haven't switched to IPv6 as quickly is because there's all sorts of hidden IPv4 assumptions that take significant effort and energy to get rid of--and there's relatively little resources being devoted to rooting those out.

The kinds of things I'm talking about are places where an IP address is stored in a uint32_t in the middle of your core business app somewhere. Or maybe you've got some log sniffing that only looks for four dotted octets and can't pick an IPv6 address. Those are the sorts of things that if you move to any system that's not IPv4, it's just not going to work period. And you're often not going to discover that you have these issues until you try forcing things to use not-IPv4.

A migration I've been working on--admittedly not in networking--has been LLVM's opaque pointer migration, and the vast majority of the time has been spent not figuring out how to get rid of every "pointer_type->getPointerElementType()" call, but in quashing all of the assumptions like "this input operand has to be a bitcast of a global variable" that is violated by the pointer migration. I have no reason to expect that the IPv4-to-IPv6 migration is not similar, in that most of the effort is going to be spent on code that you didn't think would assume it is using IPv4.
This a beautiful thing to share. I wish I’d known him and I’m sorry for your loss.
Hm.

"My plots are fantastic, while being often based upon truth. They go wildly beyond the probable but not, I think, beyond the possible. . . . Even so, they would stick in the gullet of the reader and make him throw the book angrily aside—for a reader particularly hates feeling he is being hoaxed—but for two further technical devices, if you like to call them that. First of all, the aforesaid speed of the narrative, which hustles the reader quickly beyond each danger point of mockery and, secondly, the constant use of familiar household names and objects which reassure him that he and the writer have still got their feet on the ground."

That's what makes action-adventure movies work. It keeps people from realizing that all someone needed to do was some simple thing, instead of the adventurous thing. That Fleming did this in his writing made the move to the screen easier.

"Above all there must never be those maddening recaps where the hero maunders about his unhappy fate, goes over in his mind a list of suspects, or reflects what he might have done or what he proposes to do next."

Much "great literature", and wannabe great literature, is full of such introspection. Ayn Rand takes it to an extreme. The other big vice for writers is the info-dump, where there's a long description of the setting. Read anything self-published, and you'll probably find both of these problems. "Show, don't tell".

There are major action movies with voice-overs or explicit scene-setting at the very beginning, from Star Wars to Kick-Ass. But if it's in the middle, you're doing it wrong.
Cosmology isn't only physics, it has also (always) been a playground for thought experiments and philosophy. (Compare the rather well established field of science fiction.) But, even if it's just about physics, I'm pretty amazed how cosmology seems to mirror the current state of media, which is a cultural artefact. (E.g, we had theories like the holographic universe, the pixelated universe, etc, not to speak of the clock, quite in accordance with respective trends in media technology. In the end, this isn't really surprising, as it's always about us observing the universe, the ultimate medium.)
It talks quite a bit about how to tackle migrations. It doesn't specify specific solutions for IPv6, no, but it does talk about what doesn't work and what should be looked into. It's a blog, not an Internet-Draft.
This is a great step, but I really hope Apple also change their position on no longer allowing users to provide a high-entropy passphrase to unlock all of this end-to-end encrypted data.

As it is, my iPhone unlock PIN is everything that's needed to decrypt the data server-side [1], and I'm not changing to an alphanumeric password on my phone only because of that.

In second grade, I and several other kids were given a demo of a TRS-80 computer running a tutorial of how to write a program in BASIC. The tutorial was about developing a program to calculate baseball batting averages, I believe. It asked the user some questions about a baseball game, and performed a few steps. Nothing unusual so far -- just like a calculator, right?

But then it looped back to ask the questions for the next game, and updated the rolling averages, which of course took into account the information from previous iterations. My jaw hit the floor when I realized the immense power of being able to do things like this -- the possibilities are endless! Something changed in my mind in that very moment, and it's never changed back. From that day on, I was obsessed with thinking about what sort of computer programs I could write.

Also, HN deletes your account when you them send a mail as stated in the FAQ. It always sucks to delete accounts with user comments, as it destroys context in old threads.

As spiders crawl the web humans should consider anything they post online as undeletable. If you send HN the beforementioned, there is a chance that I can still browse your posts via archive.org or google cache.

> 30-40% global adoption in ~10 years may or may not be a "dash", but it's also not nothing.

Still nowhere close to being remotely unusable after soon 30 years is very very close to nothing.

Regarding benefits: Amazon, Azure and all the other major VPS companies has a lot to gain from IP addresses being expensive, since it makes it almost impossible for new players to enter the market. ISPs may pay for CGNAT in terms of infrastructure and complexity, but they save in support and abuse mitigation cost by making it impossible for normal people to host their own stuff, they save in support cost by not dealing with customers' broken products which get confused by IPv6, and they gain financially from charging a ton for "pro"/"enterprise" non-CGNAT connections.

And for any kind of web service, supporting IPv6 is obviously just a net negative, since you have to deal with both v4 and v6 rather than just v4.

So I suppose I'm saying, sure, there are minor things to gain from v6, but it's not clear that they outweigh the (opportunity) cost of v6 for anyone, and for large sectors it's simply a cost with no upside.

I don't see a rush to support v6... ever. We'll keep growing steadily but slowly for a while, then adoption will taper off.

But hey, I may be wrong! I'd certainly be happy if you were right. The minuscule amount of progress across almost 30 years doesn't instill confidence though.
