Doxxing is a common attack on people who are guilty of wrongspeak.

I have no strong opinion about how doxxing relates to free speech, but desire to hide your private life is understandable, and I don't see any benefit for the society from realtime doxxing.
if elon were a foreign asset, he’d be playing WAY safer with all this shit. he’s probably just doing this because he wants to.
Absolutely true. It won't be long before models trained on purely public domain works will be able to oneshot style transfer from a piece of art fed to it.

We need IP law reform and UBI/strong social safety net, the problem isn't automation, it's that we allow people to own the automation and charge rent on it.

No one was posting passenger manifests of Elon's jets.
Did any of these journalists report his location?

Or did they report about the banning of someone who reported his location?
With my colleagues I've been advocating for a decoupled approach to achieve security/privacy for network services like DNS, which we built a demo of earlier this week and wrote about a bit here -- the gist is that there's no reason to hand over your personal stream of DNS queries to a DNS resolver because you can divide the information across multiple parties:

(The timing is coincidental -- we didn't realize Wyden was looking into this very issue and was going to issue a request for a probe into it.)
In what way? Feynman was chronically allergic to bullshit, not chronically addicted to it.
Any company that knows better has done a modernization to get to get off it asap. The legacy nature of the products means that the few outlets that still support them or their mainframes are charging exorbitant rates. How much? I had a customer (non-gov) that paid a million$ a month to keep their product leased and up on their support agreement, that $12m a year without even talking about the costs of finding Cobol devs. Whos still using them? Any bureaucracy terrible enough to have not transitioned years (decades) ago.
Elon is claiming these journalists were doxxing him which resulted in his family being attacked.

Make of that what you will.
How is the second amendment relevant here? Zuckerberg's jet account and others like it were also banned.
How am I overstating this? (I'm asking seriously, and also working on a piece about this). For what it's worth: I'm relaying something Marc Stevens said, and a superficial read of the Shattered paper: that the key weakness in SHA1, not shared by SHA2, is a linear message schedule that makes it possible to find the differential paths the attack relies on.

Is it a serious concern among cryptographers outside of NIST?

late edit

I removed the scare quotes around "differential paths" after skimming the first Stevens paper and the Chabaud-Joux paper and confirming they were using "differential" they way I understand the term. :)

Also, I'm more confident that the message schedule is pretty central to the attack, and I guess the whole line of research that led up to it?
> I would even be ok with 50%-100% tax rate above 100 million dollars net worth

Why stop at 100 million? Why not something like 10 million, or even 5 million?
Would love to learn more details about how exactly this video was geolocated. The linked Twitter post is a couple screenshots with some random blurry crap outlined. I don't know how you could get a location from that. It doesn't jive with a post I recently saw here on HN where it took a team of people weeks to geolocate where some Russian hacking group was from a photo.
I had not worked with cobol until recently.

If you have a solid background in C, it is not very hard to learn. It seems to show up at older companies, and is fairly good at moving and reformatting records where you want to address each field on a character by character basis.

Unlike more modern languages, there's no encapsulation, polymorphism, local variables, etc., so you can write tangled code quite easily, though the code I've seen has been very well written. Everything is in capital letters, and the character set is often ebcdic. Most numbers are fixed decimals, which leads to some unusual math results.

As a result, it can be maddeningly verbose -- I've seen 100+ lines of code that would just be a single printf statement in most other languages.
And how exactly do you know how much time Musk spends with his family?

This torrent of baseless confabulations about him is truly disgusting.
Worth the day it will take off your life expectancy!
Why? If one wants to harass Musk, meeting him at the airport is convenient.
Yep - this way my thought. I've been bitten by this is in the past: an endpoint was throwing an error and dumping out environment variables (which included API keys) - the prefixed API keys were found by crawlers and abused but the unprefixed keys were untouched (though they were cycled just in case).
Has Elon done anything recently that doesn't look vindicitve and thin-skinned?

I'm looking forward to his remaining fans reminding us all what a paragon of free speech absolutism Elon is.
Indeed. If the AI had agency in this matter, I'd say it's doing divide and conquer against those who might oppose it. But really it's just an unfortunate circumstance.
He claims it did.

But there’s no evidence the dangerous situation happened at all (and even the counter evidence of there being no police report). He’s previously lied about another son dying in his arms (to justify not unbanning Alex Jones) so it’s very feasible the entire incident is made up.

The last flight tracker post was several days before the alleged incident. Totally unclear what link exists between the flight tracker and the alleged incident, unless an ADS-B transponder is on the car and the car is flying.

Even if there was a link, a dedicated stalker is perfectly capable of retrieving the flight information themselves from government websites or other tracking websites. Elon hasn’t even asked for it to be restricted information - which just requires asking the FAA, most flight tracking websites voluntarily comply with the list as well, though not all. That would be a reasonable first step to make, along with privately discussing the incident with the account holder.
This reads along the same lines as "we must watch our employees because we don't trust them to get their work done". This doesn't seem like a genuine public interest so much as reaching for a justification given the circumstances.
> > We've known this wasn't a thing for years, at least before these vaccines.

If I remember the timeline right it was mid/late 2020 we realized that assumption was wrong, then about a year later it was apparent the vaccines weren't stopping the spread. So yeah, my statements are entirely consistent: There wasn't before the vaccines, there was after.
How is that different from e.g. cars? The roads are a public good as well, not?
I'm not, the child's mother is.

Fabricating a story about his child to win points seems directly relevant here.
Exactly this, it's like the most emotionally immature people on Twitter have been given an even more powerful blocklist to play with. Like thousands of mini-Musks with their own volatility problems.
No but the most accepted premise is we give up public goods for national security not because rich guys don’t like it.
I was one of few people who were calling out his bullshit for a decade around. People didn't like us and called loosers. It turned out we were right all along.

@elonjet
I have a feeling plenty of his investors are going to start taking issue and legal action with regard to him “doing whatever he wants”.
It seems most people aren't arguing Musk doesn't have the right to ban this, they're just pointing out that literally a couple of weeks ago Musk said this exact account was an example of free speech he would protect.

If Musk hadn't been making a big deal about supporting free speech for the last several months there wouldn't be a problem with him banning all these accounts. It's his platform he can do what he wants. dang can ban me at any time here, it's kind of his party in many ways. But dang isn't running around claiming to support all forms of legal speech, he's made a point he's trying to enforce his and the team's ideas of community guidelines.
And anyone can criticize him for making stupid rules, just like any other CEO of a company.
Being contrarian for no other reason than to annoy, or trying to get under someone’s skin, ignoring their arguments and riding roughshod over what they’re trying to say. Things people avoid doing in real life because very soon after doing them you find yourself disliked.
The same argument could be used about cars using roads or even pedestrians using sidewalks.
> As such, those who whold those views have simply become more comfortable saying the quiet parts out loud.

> You had the former president spouting QAnon conspiracies

I mean, the former president probably didn't buy into any of the shit he was actually saying. He was a registered democrat until 2009. Just look at this recent trading card thing. He's full of it, he knows he's full of it, he knows a bunch of people know he's full of it
Is there a subreddit where ElonJet can live instead?
We’ll never know and I’m sure some will say the average person doesn’t care, but the number of car sales Tesla is losing must be staggering
Again, the account didn't post passenger manifests. It posted publicly available ADS-B data, automatically. You can review the source, if you like: https://github.com/Jxck-S/plane-notify

The data comes from https://globe.adsbexchange.com/?icao=a835af. You'll see no passenger list there.
GitHub PM here. It scans using regexes and then applies post-processing. So yep, it can (and does) parse JWTs to understand their properties.
If this is very important to you, then you should find a server admin that you trust, such as a friend or a fellow industry professional.

How is it "doxxing" to use public flight data? Am I missing something here?
>Mars is, AFAIK, the only place we could conceivably build a space elevator with current materials technology

That's not true: the Moon would be much easier.

But if you're just comparing Mars to Earth, then definitely yes. Building a space elevator on Earth is sci-fi for now. I'm not sure about Mars, but on Moon it would be rather easy actually, since not only is the gravity 1/2 of Mars', but there's no pesky atmosphere.
They should invest it. Hilarious how rabid they are to spend it, in contrast with Franklin himself.
Several. Some got banned for posting screenshots of an LAPD statement, or just discussions of other journalists being banned.

Sometimes it is.

For example, name plate on the mailbox is publicly available, but posting the address with full name online constitutes doxxing.

I have this crazy idea.. If only there was.. now hear me out

Some type of team at Twitter that could look at more tweets.. the resources to look at ALL of Twitter.., systematically, for these issues of “trust” and “safety”

You could the create a very clear policy, and work to remove any doubt such a policy was consistently enforced!

I know crazy idea..
> The unvaccinated were filling up the hospitals which was putting other people at risk.

Except that wasn't happening, and so much not happening that hospitals were reducing capacity. The emergency capacity built in early 2020 was dismantled after only a month or so and never brought back.

You can find individual hospitals reaching capacity all the time every year forever, but it was never the problem the news made it out to be. Current headlines include gasp hospitals at 80% capacity! ...Except that's normal. The more empty beds they have, the more money they lose - they try to run at around 80-90% full.
It’s generally accepted that reporting on car movements is allowed as well. You don’t have a right to privacy of movement on public roads.

Transponders are in planes mostly for safety. Their automated dissemination is part of the safety mechanisms of that transport medium and putting up with them (when required) is part of the privilege of using that public good. Similar to requiring drivers licenses to drive.

Every inventor and engineer did it. It is not about the labour hours saved, but what is done with the saving and how the savings are used.

We have been making huge leaps in productivity gains for the last many decades but the gains have shall I say not put into progress of all mankind but to maintain the status quo of the profit based system by any means necessary.
Yes, you are wrong. Twitter had a whole team dedicated to combating CP on the platform.
Rather than turn off type coercion and inference, it sounds like you want a way to see the coerced/inferred types right in your editor. Rust Analyzer does this for you — there's a plugin for VSCode that will show inferred types as inline hints in your editor next to each expression, so you're never left guessing.

Personally, I agree, Rust is nigh impossible to write without types in your editor; thankfully Rust Analyzer provides them.
There's non-zero number of people who are not able to enter these three queries in google, and may have desire to act on that information.
It gets better very quickly and we have no idea where its limitations are. In other words, we have no idea when the development will slow down significantly and how much of the bottom will it have chopped down by then. Whether it's 10% or maybe a 100.

> Basic income or revolution. That's going to be our choice.

I'm definitely pro basic income, but I've heard an interesting remark a few weeks ago. And that's that COVID was kind of a UBI experiment (in the US), albeit very limited, and it turned out that if people don't have to worry about making a living and don't have a job to work in then they'll start do stupid things on the internet. Like make up stupid conspiracy theories about vaccines. I can't remember who said this, it was one of the guests on Lex Fridman's podcast. I'm also not sure if it's a valid analogy but reminds me of Vonnegut's Player Piano.
You can actually track a large number of military flights on websites such as https://www.adsbexchange.com/ a large amount of the time they fly with there transponder on because they don’t want to hit other aircraft.
Pig originally meant a young hog, with swine referring to mature hogs.

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/pig#Etymology_1

> From Middle English pigge (“pig, pigling”) (originally a term for a young pig, with adult pigs being swyn), apparently from Old English picga (attested only in compounds, such as picgbrēad (“mast, pig-fodder”)), from Proto-West Germanic piggō, puggō (“piglet”). Compare Middle Dutch pogge, puggen, pigge, pegsken (“pigling”), Middle Low German pugge, pûke (“piglet”). The word applied to an immature animal rapidly gaining weight, so it probably derives from the verb "to big" (build, increase), from Middle English biggen, byggen, from Old Norse byggja, byggva (“to build”), from Proto-Germanic būwijaną (“to build”), from PIE bʰuH- (“to become, to grow”). Pokorny suggests this root might be somehow related to bū-, bew- (“to blow; swell”), which could account for the alternation between "pig" and "big".*

> A connection to early modern Dutch bigge (contemporary big (“piglet”)), West Frisian bigge (“pigling”) and similar terms in Middle Low German is sometimes proposed, "but the phonology is difficult".[1] Some sources say the words are "almost certainly not" related,[2] others consider a relation "probable, but not certain".[3]

https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/hog

> 2. (specifically) An adult swine (contrasted with a pig, a young swine).

In any case, hog is not derogatory. The comment I was responding to was ridiculous, so I flipped the script to demonstrate that.
Yes. And it is. Pedestrians don’t have any right to privacy in public and we demand behaviors of them for the privilege of using public commons.
Not the same thing. The airspace above the United States belongs to the people thereof, who have promulgated regulations requiring aircraft to be equipped with ADS-B. You might not see the "legitimate interest" but frankly nobody asked you. Those are the rules.

They can tack on fees for specific purposes to the property tax. I haven't looked into the specific procedure the county & city uses to add them.

For example here we used to pay for sewer maintenance as part of the water bill. Then they decided to move sewer taxes to be part of the property tax and so it became.

(Cynically, they did it to raise water rates without attracting too much attention. The sewer fee was moved to property taxes but the water rates rose so that the water bill was about the same even though sewer was no longer in the monthly bill.)

> Donald J. Trump was not directly involved in the breaking of the laptop story.

Do you really believe that Rudy Guiliani, a man acting as Trump's lackey for numerous things, received bombshell information and publicized it without Trump having any knowledge or involvement?

Michael Cohen testified under oauth that Trump knew about leaked DNC emails in advance of the 2016 election. Fast-forward to ~2019 and Trump had already personally tried to pressure Ukraine into providing damaging information about Joe Biden. There is very little plausible deniability here.

> "Republicans" is a group containing tens of millions of people (though I am not aware of the repair shop owner's party affiliation, if any?)

I am obviously not referring to a collective conspiracy of between hundreds of millions of American citizens. I meant the Republican Party.
The amount of credence that this website appears to give to TIOBE (read: any at all) causes me to immediately dismiss their judgment. TIOBE is a nonsensical, wildly-fudged, deeply-flawed ranking made by people who have no idea what they're doing and seemingly no idea what industry they're in (which, if it's not self-evident from the way the ranking is designed, their methodology, and their presentation, should be obvious from the hilariously clueless summaries that accompany the rankings).

By all means, believe whatever you like about Cobol's popularity. But if you think TIOBE has any weight, reconsider your sources.
The mental gymnastics that folks go to excuse Musk's behavior will get ever more absurd.

Musk will continue to censor speech he doesn't like arbitrarily and use Twitter to promote right-wing extremists who will then hurt real people in the real world.
Musk says (https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1603591994244071424): "7 day suspension for doxxing. Some time away from Twitter is good for the soul …"

Maybe it's time for him to follow his own advice.

And maybe stop doing polls, especially ones he doesn't like the result of and must "redo":
