Numerous companies now offer all in one battery/inverter/management packs for something like $1 per Wh. Setting up a supplimentary system is several thousand dollars and could pay for itself in just a couple years. At this point, the hardest part of the process is finding a load you can power off your micro-solar-grid. Air conditioners work pretty well for that role.

Solar is now stupidly, mind numbingly cheap for what it is, and yet there are still people who think it "doesn't work" as if literal gigawatthours aren't generated daily by millions of people and systems.

It's much easier to securely limit invalid PIN attempts on a device locally than in the cloud, though. This is the bread and butter of embedded security cores like the secure enclave or Google's Titan M.

Users shouldn't be forced to use high-entropy local passwords just because a service provider insists on reusing them for a completely different purpose.
Absolutely 100%. We hear it all the time though. And imagine how hurtful it is for families and friends to hear that drivel about a loved one. Makes my blood boil.
How long does it take for a myth like this to live?

Here's Snopes from years ago: https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/water-works-2/

It cites the LA Times from 20 years ago.

But even the NYT covered this before. "No, You Do Not Have to Drink 8 Glasses of
Water a Day" (2015) https://physics.emory.edu/faculty/roth/ethics/8glasses-water...

That's by the co-author of "Medical Myths" in the BMJ (2007) https://www.bmj.com/content/335/7633/1288 ;

Which in turn cites “Drink at least eight glasses of water a day.” Really? Is there scientific evidence for “8 × 8”? by Heinz Valtin (with the Technical Assistance of Sheila A. Gorman) in 2002 at https://journals.physiology.org/doi/full/10.1152/ajpregu.003... .

Sigh.
Ok, i'll bite.

> Auto generated addresses are usually in the form of "prefix - device_id" so even if a node has a lot of addresses, they are all mostly the same

> Internet/non-local IPv6 addresses break the rules a bit and don't use a device_id in their addresses in order to protect user privacy

So a device needs to have both an internal address and an "Internet/non-local" address in IPv6?

Plus one for WAN and Link-Local?

4-5 addresses per device?
The visible effects we see for black holes are things from well outside the event horizon, where black holes behave as just another gravitational object. Things, i.e. gas, can rotate and swirl around them. Since the black hole can be rotating and the gas being slung around violently, it can emit radiation. If I understand correctly, the jets for supermassive black holes can extend out to sizes comparative to the containing galaxy’s diameter.

It won't help to download apps on an iPhone, which, I must say, isn't even yours: you don't get to decide which apps you can install on your phone. Apple gets to decide. Factually speaking you're merely renting the iPhonefrom Apple, which, being the device owner, decides the terms under which you can use it.
Concurrent writes are the bane of SQLite's existence, but for a one-person blog, you shouldn't run into any issues.

I have often criticized Apple for marketing iMessage as end-to-end encrypted while the vast majority of encryption keys still reside on their servers and are routinely used to decrypt messages for law enforcement on demand. This is a long overdue step forward.

However, for most people their messages will still not be end-to-end encrypted because their contacts will mostly not have this optional feature enabled. To be truly effective, this feature would have to ensure that Apple does not strip the end-to-end encryption from your messages when they are sent to other people using iMessage. In my opinion it is still fraudulent to market iMessage as an end-to-end encrypted system until this is fixed.
Ultimately, "It depends" and no answer will satisfy all cases.

My general advice is that software engineering has a lot of well worn patterns for problems, stick to those as much as possible. Their great advantage is that any experienced software engineer will recognize them and onboard quickly, allowing you to focus on those parts of the problem specific to your project/company.

In most cases, whatever common pattern you shoehorn your problem into will suffice for the purposes of the business. It will be ugly, and have warts, but will be generally maintainable and not often touched. Again, if this turns out to be wrong after it's been battle tested and shown value, you can begin to migrate away to something new.

There are exceptions to the above, and many companies don't actually go through the motions of following well-worn patterns even when they think they do e.g. many companies with public APIs make a common set of mistakes we've known how to solve for over a decade and have known they're easy to solve if you deal with them up front.
It seemed clear they were making moves in this direction back when their announcement about on device hash checking for CSAM prior to iCloud photos backup was made. That announcement only made sense in a world where they wanted to enable end to end encryption for photos. It's cool to see them do this, and see them also extend it to Messages too (surprising imo).

--

> The apple policy was likely about coming up with a way to enable encrypted photos on iCloud while still having some privacy preserving form of CSAM detection. Since it was only enabled when iCloud photos was enabled it was better for privacy on net than the status quo (unencrypted iCloud photos that are accessible to apple and scanned anyway).

Are campaign IDs not a thing for anyone who clicks through? Or simply have a different landing page for each campaign?
I'd consider James Bond to lie more toward the genre of "action" rather than "thriller."

An action story has three obligatory elements:

- a hero (James Bond)

- a victim (humanity, or maybe a damsel)

- a villain (rotating)

This sounds childishly simple, and it is. But it's also very easy for authors of thrillers to forget the triangle because it's not something you even notice in a well-crafted action story. But all three need to be fleshed out to the extent that the audience cares about them.

The difference between an action story and a thriller is that in a thriller, the victim and hero are the same character. For example, Stephen King's Misery is a thriller because the hero is the victim. Action stories often involve the hero's facing death, but it's done to save the victim.

Something else that's easy to forget is the human value at stake in an action story: life and death. James Bond is always on the edge of being killed, even when in extracurricular persuits. If Bond doesn't succeed, the victim is toast, and the stranger that death is, the better. At the end of the story, there's no doubt which way it went.

This is why good action stories are page-turners, or as Fleming writes:

> "You have to get the reader to turn over the page."

Humans are hardwired to pay attention when death is a possible outcome. That's why rubbernecking is a thing even though people complain about it. It's also one reason cited for the popularity of NASCAR. Death can come at any time even though the action is quite repetitive.

More than that, the scenes in an action story tend to turn on life and death. That's one place where action story authors can get into trouble: writing too many scenes that turn on a value other than life-death, or don't turn on anything. It's shockingly easy to write scenes that offer nothing more than information. One or two of them is all it takes for the reader to yawn and quit.

Maybe I'm unique, but my dark net activity is usually pretty tame. The number one reason I use Tor is because browsing onion sites reminds a bit more of how the web used to be in the late 1990s. Lot's of garbage of course, but a lot more serendipitous discovery than the web today.

Because of its anonymous nature Onion sites are inherently resistant to being swallowed whole by advertising. Nobody on the dark web is creating "content marketing", if someone is trying to sell you something it's obvious. You're not the product on the dark web.

I know it's wishful thinking, but I often hope for a parallel web to really thrive on Tor.

>In English, the pronunciation of ⟨h⟩ as /h/ can be analyzed as a voiceless vowel. That is, when the phoneme /h/ precedes a vowel, /h/ may be realized as a voiceless version of the subsequent vowel. For example the word ⟨hit⟩, /hɪt/ is realized as [ɪ̥ɪt]

For words beginning with h and where the first syllable is unstressed (historic, hypothesis, but not hitter, happy) it can be appropriate to use "an" rather than "a" as the associated indefinite article.
Also early on Elon Musk would frequently tweet people doing stupid illegal things in their Teslas (e.g. fooling the sensors, jumping into the backseat from the drivers seat and pretending they’re in a taxi) and then say “obviously you shouldn’t do this but isn’t it cool that you can!”

He’d also make misleading claims about “FSD” being safer than human drivers (it isn’t, but FSD gets disabled in tricky situations, so he could lie with statistics).
And the 9th Circuit Court has determined that publicly accessible data does not require a license and the provider cannot dictate the means in which a user can access it. If a provider wants to do that, they need to place that content behind a walled garden.

It all depends on the size of the black hole. HUGE black holes have weak tidal forces.
> I wonder if there's a relatively simple solution to at least most of the OPs list, all having to do with outgoing ipv6 requests, which would be proxying such (or all) requests through another computer on the network that has both ipv4 and ipv6 interfaces. Maybe that is an oversimplification.

If you have an IPv4+IPv6 capable server around, you can set it up yourself if your ISP hasn't made a proxy available. There are various NAT64 implementations you can use; running them and setting up a DNS64 server is all you need to make such a feature available. You'd probably also want to add a firewall/whitelist to prevent other abusing your NAT64 gateway, though.

The only way a representative democracy can work, and moreover a justice system, is the assumption that the people in charge have extraordinary moral and ethical character.

Since time imemmorial this hasn't been true. It's worse now than it's ever been. You can't even vote the corruption out at this point. So, we will never have that mythical democracy nor justice system.

They feed on each other. The corrupt crypto people corrupt the establishment, which looks the other way, and the feedback loop continues. One does not negate the other and especially in the case of finance it's entirely possible to have exactly 0 good guys. The media has no interest in the telling the truth. There's no financial incentive. Hence every "fact checker" is a consummate liar, and every "journalist" is just an opinion pundit with (perhaps) a bachelor degree. We are literally living in the Truman Show. All it takes is a little money to change the public's perception of a person.

Because the reasons for data sovereignty as legislated by the EU and countries within it, and China, are drastically different.

I'm fairly certain the motives for data sovereignty are wildly different.
AIUI some of them are communicated informally by Apple engineers to individuals, some of them are found by using `strings` on the binary and looking at reasonable-seeming keys, any key that actually has a UI to set it is typically found just by setting it in the UI and seeing what changed, some of this stuff may have had UI's in the past that were removed while still leaving the defaults key, some of this stuff may just write the keys into the preferences files automatically and so you can find them just by looking at what's already there, etc.

Skimming this list right now a lot of the stuff I'm seeing definitely has UI settings, so a lot of these are just useful for e.g. automating the setup of a new user.
Actually ORAN (there also were Open Ran and V-Ran) it's kinda break-through by itself. Traditionally vendors supplied vertically integrated solution that you couldn't swap and replace parts of it with third party offerings. ORAN opens up interfaces and allows telecoms to mandate it's supports in solutions procured from vendors. But the bottom line for telecoms is to drive prices down by trying to increase number of vendors on the playing field and maybe a bit to diversify the risks. For small vendors that manufacture telecom equipment it's not trivial to stay afloat (very long sales cycles, low margins, lots of conditions) so been bought out by conglomerates in many cases it's their exit strategy
This is a good article that neatly covers a lot of the tips I've seen spread across various posts, talks, etc. Thanks!

I'm curious what experience you or others have dealing specifically with the write concurrency elements of this setup, should you find it is actually an issue.

I don't really follow what your point is.

But, developers will build what maximizes profits. They are just answering to wallets. If it was mostly the ultra-wealthy purchasing real estate (as it mostly was pre-WW2), then the developers will build what the ultra-wealthy want to spend their money on.

Post-WW2 saw the rise of the middle class and their ability to purchase homes. Especially with government-backed mortgages (FNMA, Freddie Mac, and etc). Most of the middle class would rather spend less on gorgeous architecture and get more square footage inside their home.

I'd turn the question around: if people don't see value enough in your content to pay for it, however small amount, then why are you creating it?

Sure, everybody likes free stuff, and not everyone has the disposable income to pay for your content, but at that point we are talking about a fair business model, not if you should ask people to pay for your content.

I'm in a similar situation, creating educational content for kids. I would love to be able to just make it freely available to everyone, but after spending a month digging through possible grants, I've come up empty.

This is how our society is structured, unless something fundamental changes (like UBI) we will have to ask for money. It's still way more honest than placing surveilance ads on your site.
That's because Chinese and US law are fundamentally different. The US has laws that enable Apple to contest those requests. It is not just possible to run a large business in violation of any (competent) government. It doesn't matter who it is.

FWIW, Apple does not treat US and Chinese users the same. If you have a Chinese mainland iPhone, you use a completely different iCloud that isn't even run by Apple.

I live in the mountains of Idaho, so, yeah, I'm aware. I had friends in high school and in college in the 80s that did precisely this.

As for taxes, we can either pay them on the front end by doing more preventative maintenance or we can pay them on the back end handling damages and knock on costs. In reality it will be a mixture of both, but the more we put up front the less we would (should) have to pay later. Of course, one stroke of bad luck can throw all our best laid plans to the winds.
I want to use a low-entropy PIN on my phone, because I enter it dozens of times per day, shoulder-surfing is a concern as big as hacking in many scenarios, and because I trust Apple's hardware to be capable of efficiently limiting local PIN attempts and wiping high-entropy keys if required.

At the same time, I log in to new iOS devices with my Apple ID about once per year. I would love to be able to use a high-entropy key in that scenario. (As a point of reference, WhatsApp allows exactly that for encrypted backups!)

If that's still baffling to you, I'm glad I could introduce you to a very different viewpoint :)

> The argument is the same as it's ever been. Apple took away too much of the user's control; if the iPhone were a more open platform, nobody would be squabbling over our only sync option.

It's just moving the goalposts. If Apple gave you more control then people would demand that the source code for the chips be open source, or that you could stand over the shoulder of the person assembling your iPhone and make sure they don't plug in a USB drive and install some malware. It's a never-ending battle. You're just going to have to start trusting Apple and other companies, or build your own device from raw materials you mine yourself.
What is your advice for OP in how to find those prospects? This is a thread with that goal in mind, do you have any advice for him on how to find prospective clients?
Okay, so the certainty is combined with the raw answer into a single number between true and false.

Universal Profiling unwinds stacks without frame pointers and symbols

The article seems to treat design department mockups and prototypes as being indicative of marketable devices of their time. Anyone familiar with the extravagant automobile shows of the late twentieth century knows that design mockups, prototypes, and ''show cars'' are thought experiments that may or may not yield marketable products or ideas. Having said that, I offer no insight into what possessed Nokia to market their original N-Gage handset.

This reminds me of a technique I learned from this StackOverflow answer [1] that is about creating structs/records with TCL lists and dicts. It apparently comes from LISP philosophy:

proc mkFooBarRecord {foo bar} {
# Keep index #0 for a "type" for easier debugging
return [list "fooBarRecord" $foo $bar]
}
proc getFoo {fooBarRecord} {
if {[lindex $fooBarRecord 0] ne "fooBarRecord"} {error "not fooBarRecord"}
return [lindex $fooBarRecord 1]
}

The magic number is sort of like the "0" index of the "Type" field with dicts. field.
