No sensible discussion about globalization should ignore the impact of economic sanctions have had over the developing world and how globalization in some ways made weak countries subservient to strong countries.One of the main arguments is how it undermines a nation's self-determination and how the price is too high.

Global trade isn't the same as globalization. You can trade fine with others without relying on them. So your discussion about lifing people from poverty should include how specifically interdependence between countries as opposed to improvements in technology amd trade relations has resulted in poverty reduction.

We don't have to look far, because of globalization, a potential conflict between taiwan and china is the current biggest threat to global peace. TSMC is building factories in the US and India as well as apple trying to get out of China specifically to avoid global interdependence. TSMC plans to supply US demands by US fabs. But apple will face the same issue in other countries if or when conditions become hostile.

We don't live in a world where every country is working together for the progression of mankind. Each country looks out for itself. This means banning US tech companies from operating in Countries like China but allowing them to outsource labor there. Anyone from the rustbelt or former industrial towns in the US will tell you the impact of outsourcing labor (greedy business finding a way to to pay people less).

Another consideration is the impact of automation and how cheap labor is needed less and less so why not make stuff locally?

It isn't just poverty that reduced but the wealth of the few top rich businesses increased by many orders of magnitude because they got around tax and labor laws thanks to globalization.

My argument is you can still have free trade and innovation without giving up your sovreignity as a nation or looking the other way on tax and labor laws or undermining local labor unions.
To be honest, these result really feel like we are playing with fire here and inventing things that are too powerful for us. Automation has proven to be beneficial on a small local scale (like food processor instead of cutting things up by hand) but on a large scale, I feel like this is too society-disrupting. For example, imagine if ChatGPT gets so good that it can replace humans in nearly every type of writing -- we'll be drowned in AI writing and most writers will be out of a job.

It is too quick at concentrating all the best abilities into the hands of a very few, and takes away from human connection (instead of reading what a human wrote , we are just interacting more and more with computers and less with humans).

I think if you add up the costs and benefits, the costs very much outweigh the benefits.

I also think any programmer creating this technology and even people who show it off are incredibly irresponsible. It is on a similar level of publishing a new recipe on how to make a very powerful, undetectable explosive device, just because you can have some fun with it in your backyard. Analogous reasoning to show that innovation is good does not apply here because it is on a scale we have never seen.

The creation of these AI technologies sickens me, and the people who are making it sicken me even more. I truly hope we will actually be a bit more responsible here and delete this trash, but like all times that have come before, I doubt we have the wisdom to do so.
Come to think of it, another surprisingly simple protocol you might want to have a shot at for the fun is VNC.

It's also really rewarding to end up with a picture on the screen, once it works. Nowadays the entry barrier to real-time graphics programming is IMO really darn high for beginners, but a simplistic VNC server might get you a step closer to the MS-DOS days, where we could literally draw pixels into RAM.

(Or, you could just extend your tiny HTTP server to support Motion JPEG, which is basically just a single HTTP response header, followed by a diarrhea of JPEG images.)

Text-to-speech seems to have hit a certain plateau where it's perfectly functional (for English at any rate). But it would probably take a lot of incremental work to get to network news anchor much less great audiobook narrator territory. There's probably a great deal more value in improving speech-to-text at this point given that AI transcriptions are better than nothing but still quite poor relative to humans.

None of that is culture -- unless you apply it in a shallow way.

The South is a cultural wasteland. The only thing it has going for it are its manners.
For most, I'm sure the WiFi integration was the main driver for rpi, which was just plain easier to use than Arduino+wifi thanks to python on-device.

That's probably why the esp series caught on so quick: way cheaper than rpi, Arduino+wifi, way smaller than both, and still had int wifi.

They saw this, and the RPI2040 has all of the above. Python, low power, low cost, integrated WiFi.

The smaller BOM should also make this less likely to sell out permanently.
Those services support Linux, but like you noted, not all the games that use the services do. (adding to your Destiny example, Fortnite has explicitly been denied[3] Linux support.)

Bellingcat have geolocated the imagery of the alleged stalking incident, showing it took place nowhere near an airport. It was also on a day when ElonJet wasn't operating.

Nor is there any way of knowing whether Musk or his family are on board any of these aircraft, as manifests aren't published.

He's not allowing posting the flight details with a delay either. That was a temporary rule change and rapidly walked back.
Next can be some paid actions:
permanently suspend some account globally for a price like $1k + follower count * 0.1.

For example you wanna permanently delete Tesla from twitter:

pay 1k + 18mln * 0.1 = 1.801 mln dollars and you've deleted Tesla from twitter

/s
> In fact, N628TS is airborne over the Middle East right now using its original assigned ICAO hex code of A835AF, not a PIA code.

He's at the football world cup final right now.
FTA, offending Tweet with context:

“My colleague Drew Harwell, who has also been suspended, and I have been working on a story involving Musk and were hoping to get comment from him. We attempted to reach him several times through email over the past few days. At 8:30pm EST I tried reaching out for comment on Twitter by posting this:”

Taylor Lorenz @TaylorLorenz

@elonmusk @DavidSacks Hi Elon, @drewharwell and I sent
you a couple emails about this. We've learned some
information that we'd like to share and discuss with you.
We're taking this very seriously and want to ensure
this is pursued in the right way. Thanks

Twitter | Today at 5:30 PM

“When I went to log in and see if he had responded to our query, I was suspended. I received zero communication from the company on why I was suspended or what terms I violated.”
I believe PIA can only be used within the USA, N628TS being in the Middle East means it has to use its normal identifier.

However it does seem if you look at the history on ADSB exchange it is broadcasting as N628TS while in the US.

Elon is at the World Cup Final (he has disclosed this himself [0]) and so noting that N628TS is in Qatar isn't "Doxing" him.

In online fora, “security by obscurity” is when you disagree with someone.

In reality, it’s when the primary control used is restricted, shared knowledge. Famously back in the day if you knew a phone number and AT&T lingo, you could compromise the phone system.

In the case of a public CA, if your hostnames aren’t license plates, the names of servers may provide context useful for an attacker. They also provide an attack vector - the control panel for the CA.
You're missing the point a bit.

Replace energy with food, water, medicine, microchips, or any other commodities necessary for modern life and the point still stands.
tbf I'm not sure Musk's rightwingery is any deeper than realising what kind of one-liner appeals most to his stans on Twitter and deflects from stories about him which are bad no matter where you sit on the political spectrum (plus standard billionaire CEO views on regulation, employee rights and tax he's always had). I don't think we need to worry about him being more politically deft or ideologically driven than Trump either,.

I'd offer the alternative view: it's a bit sad to watch someone who once had the motivation and means to build flying cars get obsessed by 140 characters. The Twitter purchase feels less like his road to being the next Trump and more like Howard Hughes' passion for Vegas.
Fair enough. In our testing we couldn't get it to compression ratios lower than ~90% on the kind of images we tested (low quality webcam-type sensors, sub-VGA resolution), while it achieved very impressive compression ratios on the demo images, so I assumed a selection was made. Perhaps it's just works really well for certain kinds of images and doesn't for others.
I lack the expertise to offer a comprehensive environmental impact analysis, but it is an established population control technique. I suspect the amount of oil used is small enough that it doesn't have a significant environmental impact.

That is true, but you can look up recent flights of N628TS taking place only in the US and see it using its regular code there too.
Rules should be clear and consistently applied. Not just enforced based on how much Elon Musk likes you.
that was the German strategy towards Russia "Wandel durch Handel". Assuming that trade is mutual beneficial it makes an armed conflict less likely because both sides have so much to lose. With Russia it did not work unfortunately. It's debatable if it works with china.
Random guess: the writer doesn't know how to pronounce that name correctly.

(Of course, you don't actually have to know how to pronounce something in order to write it! But if you decide what to write by saying it to yourself, you might find yourself instinctively reaching for some alternative turn of phrase.)
So why did Elon himself “conflate” sharing publicly available info about his travels with free speech? He literally used this exact example to demonstrate his commitment to free speech.
Ask HN: A few questions regarding The Lean Startup
Question #1: do you know of any Entrepreneurs who has build, or is building a company using The Lean Startup methodology who has blogged (or is blogging) about the adventure in real time as events happen?

Question #2: do you know if anyone has developed a how-to manual out of The Lean Startup book? Or a course? Or something more concrete and practical? While I understand that it's not a paint-by-number type of endeavor, I was wondering is there was something more practical with less theory, and less post-mortem.

I meant HN and Reddit will be filled with stories about GPT4, not by GPT4.
Its us that are gonna talk about it a lot. If GPT4 will continue the same kind of progress then unfortunately for us I anticipate angst/anxiety levels to hit the roof. Many people won't know what to do with their careers/studies.

It will also get talked about in traditional media much more, it won't be mainly geeks that know what GPT is. People from the mainstream like Joe Rogan will start talking about it, maybe even (finally) politicians.
4. you looted a billion people to uplift those billions — and they hate you now for robbing and oppressing their families to the point they couldn’t breed

People who believe in globalism should’ve taken your advice thirty years ago — but after destroying families for two generations, they’re going to fall on the managerial class like feral animals seeking blood.

The managerial class in the West will be executed for betraying their nations — and we’re past any way to stop that.

Why is it people only give your wise managerial quips after disasters, but never proactively?
> Jack Sweeney was posting non public information.

I feel like the speculation going on in the discourse as to the mysterious ways that the tracking was able to perpetuate muddies the waters, so let’s make that clearer.

1. It is public information that SpaceX has a public address at 1 Rocket Road, Hawthorne[0].

2. It is public information that a jet is registered at FAA for an owner whose shell company has a public address at 1 Rocket Road, Hawthorne. Its tail number is N628TS[1].

3. The jet is required by law to broadcast publicly, unencrypted, its tail number. Hobbyist pilots and ATCs around the world exchange that information to keep track of what is in the air. That exact jet’s ACARS information contains both its tail number and ICAO address[2]. The PIA anonymization program can randomize the ICAO address, but here we find which one it is by going through all planes. There are just so few.

4. The jet is also required to broadcast ADS-B messages publicly. ADS-B contains the ICAO address and latitude / longitude / altitude / velocity[3].

Yeah, bad idea to go to war unless your shit at home is already together. Wars are expensive. I think a lot of the domestic turmoil in the US can be linked to our useless wars in the ME. Could have used all that steel and those men to build stuff here: hospitals, schools, trains and so on.

Bush & cheney did enormously more damage to the US than Trump. Not that I liked Trump at all.
This would require you or the person in the data center to know which customer is using which disk. And data isn't stored on just one disk, it's spread out over multiple disks and many customers have shards of data stored on the same disk. So even if this did happen, the would only get fragments of data.

> Yes and no, passwords are an implementation detail.

Passwords are not an "implementation detail" unless they are hardcoded (and a hardcoded password is very arguably security by obscurity).

> There’s a reason why bank cards can securely use 4 digit numeric pins but banking websites need much longer passwords.

Yes, because the bank card provides some additional form of authentication, typically in the form of a chip on the card.

In that case you might be better off looking at writing a plugin for your existing webserver.

nginx, apache, etc, all allow writing modules that can be invoked at various parts of the HTTP-communication.

> Setting up your own private CA gives you complete control and flexibility to customize your certificates to suit your needs.

This is probably the second strongest point in the article, but one that is also probably limited in necessity. Many servers standardize on TLS formats and algorithms. At least on my internal network, I've not had a use case that I couldn't use one of LetsEncrypts PKI for.

> If you decide to do the same, it means that you can’t use publicly trusted CAs to issue certificates to your internal web apps and services, DevOps build servers, testing resources, IoT devices, or other entities with domain names that are only valid in the context of an internal or private network (e.g. example.local, 10.0.0.0/8, or even localhost). The solution is to get your own CA.

You shouldn't be using non-routable local domains either. Internal domains should be owned externally and the authoritative servers should not propagate externally.

> The solution is to set up your own CA to issue certificates for your internal infrastructure. That way, you can keep your internal hosts from showing up in a public CT log.

The last point is the strongest, imo. Transparency means that you have created maps of your network - past and present. That said, if you're relying on secrecy to be sure, that is no form of security. Obscurity these days buys you time by wasting the attackers time, but it's not a great strategy, imo. It'd be like if the military assumed nobody had ever seen a base from above.

She goes on to talk about configuring your own internal CA. Is there anything prohibitive about using LE PKI to run an internal CA? Maybe short expiry? I wish they'd spent the meat of the article on this rather than concluding with "don't".
Reliance on other nations for critical resources is a separate concern from technological mechanisms for acquiring those resources, even if the later may help solve the former.

It’s an interesting exercise: how many accounts would, say, China need to suppress a critical story and what fraction of their intelligence budget would that constitute? This seems like a very cheap way to shape the public narrative since you’re only talking $8/month for many, many votes.
How many domestic problems in developed countries are the result of income inequality? Probably most of them. Poor education, poor wages, poor health(care)...these exist because of the billionaire class extracting wealth from the economy. Those problems aren't going to be solved by going to war.

8chan wasn't anarchy. It's a closed fiefdom that had a highly permissive moderation policy. It could have decided to change at any time, and there's evidence that the owners manipulated it as well such as pretending to be "Q" and modifying trip codes for certain people.

Whomever admins the system owns the system. True for any Mastodon instance and true for Twitter.
I'm on my own Mastodon instance but should it get banned I'd pretty much lose my followers. I think that was the original point. Otherwise agreed, neither Twitter nor Mastodon owe me anything.

Ask HN: Best practices for using email to log in to important online services
I might be overthinking this but it seems to me that using your email account both as a tool to communicate and as your personal identifier to log in to critical online services like bank accounts or password managers is problematic.

Is using 2FA in both my email account (although, if I'm not mistaken, 2FA doesn't work for POP3/IMAP accounts) and in, let's say, my bank account a reasonably secure option that address the apparent contradiction of using a public identifier (i.e. email account) for something that should be kept private (part of the information required to access your money, tax information, etc.)?

Do you have email addresses/aliases that you use exclusively as usernames for critical/important online services and not for communicating? Are there "best practices" when it comes to separating the use of email as a communication tool and as personal identifier/username? How do you manage this?

Or, as I said at the beggining, am I overthinking this?
What did Russia depend on Ukraine for?

Russia did not think it was attacking Europe. It is not a remotely analogous situation to US/China. China is much more mutually dependent on the US, and much more sane.

Fair means inequal.
Nothing screams free speech like using money to silence dissenting voices.
That's not how Microsoft historically operates. Programs I wrote 20 years ago still work on Windows using ancient apis that they carry, because they care about backwards support. Whatever obscure msc or exe you ran in the 90s is still there, still runs, and still configures the OS. To this day you can check weird boxes deep in your disk config to put buggy behavior back into Windows, because it fixes a bug a single customer had decades ago.

My theory is simpler: it was too hard to add new features to the taskbar (like wide search bars and now text fields) when you had to think about a tall and a wide configuration. So they cut the tall way. Now they can cram all sorts of features into your taskbar.

It represents a shift in MS philosophy, closer to how Apple mandates progress in their OS.
