I kind of agree with you, but on the other hand, they are storing everything you give them using strong cryptography. If you fundamentally don't trust cryptography then none of those passwords you are worried about are worth protecting in the first place. So I'm not sure it's logically consistent to say that such a service should / should never exist on that basis.

Where I do think it resonates is fundamentally it's just a bad idea to centralize things like this. It may be a necessary to construct a commercial business around this, but centralising massive amounts of trust across unrelated entities into ANY party is just a fundamental compromise that shouldn't have to be made. We would all be better off with genuine decentralised infrastructure to make all this work.

What does irritate me is that all these companies are full of "zero trust" marketing spiel but their products always actually end up coming back to placing 100% trust in them in the end.

As far as I can tell BitWarden and Google are the two good ones. I use BitWarden.

My reasoning is anything new and experimental is scary, I want something with tons of users that's well established. If the community isn't all over it, it's probably not reviewed enough.

Open source makes stuff a little more trustworthy, but by itself isn't enough.

I also don't want to pay a lot for it, and many are paid.

The two big FOSS ones everyone knows are KeePass and BitWarden.

Keepass uses some single file database last I checked. Terrible for sync as the sync engine won't be able to automatically merge conflicts and you might get hassles.

That just leaves BitWarden, or just using Chrome because it's there, it's easy, and Google seems to be good at protecting you from everyone but them.
Buttigieg asked "who gets to draw the line?"

The answer is: the legislature, always, everywhere. Some legislatures draw the line at six weeks, others draw it at birth, but every legislature draws a line.
Yes, but how exactly is the LastPass implementation faulty? In your other comment you claim to know that it is.

I didn't think about subtitles as a default for people who are hard of hearing. I thought most people would have a device that turns the captions on and off.

The reason I even noticed this with BBC is because I was interviewed by Reuters a few years ago and the footage was spread through news throughout the world both online and on broadcast TV.

A friend from the UK sent me a screenshot where the BBC had captioned me. They were the only channel to do this (that I saw or heard about) I'm Canadian, and we tend to have one of the easiest to understand clearly spoken accents. So it surprised me that BBC went to the trouble of adding captions.

This makes sense now.

> In the minutes before flight 521 lined up to land, two flights were forced to abort their landings after encountering wind shear; however, they didn’t tell the controller their reasons for doing so, and the controller didn’t ask.

The article isn't attempting to make a point here, but for anyone who is unaware, it is this way on purpose. It's not an accident or an oversight or a bad policy.

It used to be that pilots had to justify doing a go-around. So in that critical moment, when the pilot is making the go-no-go decision, they're thinking about whether or not they can justify the go-around, not about whether or not the go-around is the right thing to do. There was a tendency for pilots to try to force a landing that just wasn't gonna happen and it resulted in more than a few disasters. So now the policy is to just do the right thing and the pilot doesn't have to explain, not to tower, not to management, not to anyone why they decided to go-around.

> […] and excessive rebuilds are OK.

Where does the presupposition of just some build tools, but not the others (if I am reading it correctly), resulting in excessive rebuilds come from?

Apart from building a dependencies DAG for a project, the next fundamental responsibility of a build tool is to watch for / detect changed graph nodes and apply relevant build rules (expressed as graph edges) to rebuild only the necessary parts of the graph by traversing the path upward (if the apex node is up at the top). Naturally, if it is a dependency at the very bottom of a very leafy graph that has changed and upstream nodes have a dependency on it, it will trigger a large (of a very large) rebuild of the entire dependency path. But that is true of all build systems, not just select ones, and that is what we need buid tools for.

The problem is that many people either can't or don't express dependency rules correctly or dependencies generate build byproducts that are to be dynamically injected into the DAG, and they not properly accounted for in the build rules, and that results in an incorrectly built DAG at the build system run time resulting in excessive rebuilds.

In the ideal world, dependency management is relegated to a module system of a programming language. But since long serving incumbents cough cough C, C++ and Java (not until Java 9 anyway) do not have a module system, people have created a kludge (make) and later multiple kludges (autoconf/automake, cmake, maven/ivy etc) to bandaid the problem.

However a generic build tool can't account for a permutation of all possible scenarios, all possible programming languages, linkers, pre- and post-processors and whatever else needs to be done to produce a build artefact and excel at it in every possible use case. Some do it better than the others in very specific scenarios but do poorly in some other or fringe use cases. Then there are personal preferences. Therefore, the discourse over which build system is better than the other(s) will never end.
that's crazy. I don't think I actually used the Apple version, but I definitely remember the MS-DOS version of Print Shop Deluxe
It's not the cryptography that I don't trust. It's the e2e implementation. I mean we wouldn't be having this conversation if it was just about the cryptography. Also, subscription fees are a turn off.
>How strange to negate mountain loads of evidence with a single religion-like self-defending assumption.

He is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law before a jury of his peers, who must be convinced beyond the shadow of a doubt.

Do we all know he did it? Yes. But a jury hasn't ruled on it yet and until then he is legally speaking innocent. He must have his chance to face his accusers and present his arguments and present his own evidence.

Due processes must be fallowed. If we don't fallow due process and presume innocence than anyone can be imprisoned at any time for anything on trumped up charges because prosecutors and police simply say they have evidence whether or not it is true. at that point trials are nothing but farce and we have fallen into tyranny.

>Of course you would believe that yours is a society of Law if you actively ignore all evidence to the contrary.

While our society is far from living up to our own ideals, giving up on those ideal because we haven't always met them is not the answer; we should instead endeavor to adhere to them more fully. To do otherwise is nothing but a societal nihilism.

Virtual II lets you plug in a real printer into a virtual Apple IIe. It's much, much quicker than this web-based emulator. Unfortunately, when I print it's mostly fine, but skips one single line. I don't think it's flow control issues, though, since it almost entirely works.

Instead I print to PDF, and then use an older Ghostscript to drive the printer. It requires some scaling, though.

The inference that the LastPass leak is responsible is being made purely on the basis that this particular person can't identify any other way the security of their wallet was broken. That seems a very weak basis (essentially, absence of evidence equating to evidence of absence) to make what is really a very strong assertion.
The NYT is reporting that:

> In that case, his parents’ house in Palo Alto, Calif., which was used to secure the bond, could be seized by the government.

Interestingly, the home is not located in Palo Alto, but in Stanford — which is a critical difference because it means that his parents (both Stanford faculty members) likely do not actually own the property. Stanford sells time-limited ground leases to faculty, which means that they cannot sell the property (or promise it) to anyone who is not a qualifying (tenure line) faculty member, or the university itself.

I don't know if the NYT is misreporting this, or if SBF's parents have signed a document promising something that they legally cannot make good on (grant rights in a property that they do not themselves hold). I'd guess it's the former, but who knows!

Covid was the biggest bail reform experiment in history. Typically for any non-violent crime in the US, people get ROR'd (released on own recognizance) so long as they don't have any outstanding warrants. Bail is for people that have a history of skipping court (outstanding warrants). During Covid, everyone got ROR'd regardless of outstanding warrants, because getting caught shoplifting and the cops find 3 points of meth in their pocket shouldn't be death sentence. Normally that type of person would be given a $5000 bail if this was their second time getting caught. If they were unemployed, they would dry out in jail and hopefully come out the other side on a better path. During covid everyone was released on zero bail. Homelessness and crime spiked across the US.

There are places that think it is a good idea to make covid bail policies permanent. The experiment is running now.
No, I am not exaggerating while secretly agreeing with you or something. That it may interpretation; you are free to disagree with it, but it's my sincere interpretation. Please avoid supposition about my mind state and intentions, if you want to know something about those subjects, just ask.

We deny bail to serial killers to avoid putting lives at risk, not because they're extra guilty. There's no indication SBF is a danger to anyone around him, and the conditions of his bail include counseling in case he's a danger to himself. Maybe he does have a house in Argentina with a stack of unmarked bills, who knows, but that is that the bond and the ankle monitor are for.
This sort of thing is on the development roadmap. Also, some people have been building their own version of this with Textual already. Few days ago someone was showing off a Textual app they’d built that would play video - using the kitty protocol IIRC.
I've been using it for the same purpose, especially on technical topics where I simply don't have the breadth to even know the specific terms I need to google. Google used to be decent at this a decade back, but recently unless you provide the exact terms and surround them with quotes all you'll get is generic nonsense. So now instead GPT has taken on the role of being a cranky wiseman who will sometimes give good pointers, but will sometimes troll you. But even if you don't take everything it says at face value, it will usually be able to spit out the domain-specific terms that you can then independently lookup in the literature yourself.

Oh and another perfect use-case is for writing. It's basically the ideal thesaurus. You can ask it directly words that mean X with a nuance of Y, or for idioms that mean X, or so on.
Because the government also decides what are crimes.

Wow, what a nightmare to troubleshoot and try to figure out. I feel lucky that a month before the March 2020 I switched to a new job doing more direct application support instead of general desktop/AD related work or I may have had to deal with that exact issue.
> Examples for being clean and reliable methods?

Neutral gas asphyxiation (“exit bags”).

It’s possible to screw up but fairly limited, I think the only real risk is getting found too soon. That aside it’s reportedly a really calm way to go.

> I have a hard time coming up with examples, as after all the body has to be disposed off eventually.

Oh yes unless you throw yourself in a volcano that’s always going to be an issue. It’s mostly the other bits which the method has an impact on.

Well I guess an other option is a diving suicide, but that requires a lot of planning and certifications so seems unlikely to be worth.

Lift up as many people as possible. It’s a fallacy to think that there must be poor people.

One day, hopefully not too many days away, our descendants will wake up and discover that the last poor person has been lifted from poverty.

To get there from here, we have to take it one day at a time, and focus on changing what we can.
> I think it also indicates that we’ll see a price stagnating base-model phone and an ever increasing top-tier model as the companies explore how much people are willing to spend (a Corolla vs a Mercedes).

I don't think so.

A Mercedes will get you laid, the latest iphone won't and likely never will.

cell phones stopped being status symbols long before smart phones were created by apple and I don't see them going back to that.

You have an excellent writing style. Top notch comment.
While programmers probably make quite good managers; it is worth noting that software companies write software and then transform into some other form of company. Google, for example, started as a software company then became an advertising company. Since writing software isn't what they really do, it is unclear what use it is trying to promote programmers into general management.

If writing new software the the core business of an organisation then sure, put a programmer in charge of things. I'm struggling to think of situations where that is the case. Usually the success of an existing company doesn't depend on writing new software.
The issue is bail in general, if we run under the assumption of “innocent until proven guilt (as determined by a jury of peers)” then bail is immoral.

We could argue most people would make a run for it; I’d argue that a trial should be held more quickly. No prison time for more than it takes to schedule a case with a judge. Arrest the person, have a trial starting within a week or so (or don’t arrest).

Part of what happens today is, they set a high bail. Lock people up for months to years without a trial, then people agree to a plea deal before the trial starts. It’s a way around due process. Imo a direct violation of the 8th amendment.

Bail used to make a tad more sense when there wasn’t an organized police force but random citizens arresting you. You could post bail to farm for the season, or what have you. Then they’d have the trial when the judge held court again (after he farmed his fields).
I've never seen anyone convincingly argue that you can remove algorithmic bias, in the way the industry is currently trying to do, without simply replacing these supposed societal biases with the AI maker's own biases.

A fundamental property of AI systems is that their propensities can be accurately measured and arbitrarily adjusted. Currently, human judges sentence women more leniently than men, which has various societal benefits (not breaking up families, especially). If you replace that with an "AI judge", it's no longer rational-minded judges applying their best judgment. The disparity can now be fixed in a single place, and affect every new convict across the country at once. You won't be able to have "sentencing guidelines", you'll have to have reproducible equations that always produce the same sentence for equivalent situations. Great! But now, that equation can be changed centrally. By a head of state trying to win an election, or the corporation making the AI, that wants to hype its brand (whether that means woke, or populist conservative).

There is a fundamental risk to AI being used at all, no matter how it's coded or regulated. I much prefer a flawed system where a few thousand people are at the mercy of one man's judgment (over that judge's career), to an even worse system where we're al cogs in an equation-machine, where the whole country is at the mercy of a corporate committee or regulatory agency's judgment.

You can't fix that by code, or by laws. Besides algorithmic bias researchers, who are all working to make better cogs, is anyone thinking about these more fundamental issues?
Why do so many companies require proxy configurations to be set on the endpoint, rather than using transparent proxying? Wouldn't that completely avoid a whole class of issues?
I had been a very happy customer for years before they started moving to that policy. It's what finally made me set up a vaultwarden instance and migrate all my stuff over.

I didn't like the move to a subscription model, but I'd have sucked that up if I could've continued to bring my own sync.
>If he flees, they are screwed.

Unless they flee too, to a country that doesn't have extradition. Given the good chance he has countless millions stashed somewhere, this is definitely a non-zero chance. It is also made more likely due to the political connections SBF and his family have due to the tens of millions of dollars he has funneled to politicians. While not necessarily likely, it is far from impossible (anyone who thinks it is should look up Mark Rich). If anyone should be locked up without bail while waiting trial, it is SBF.
This chain so far is disdainfully reductive. Resource scarcity creates a zero-sum game, so you can't give without taking. People aren't trying to punish rich people so much as force their hand into helping those that they rest so comfortably upon, given the total lack of meaningful initiative.

The best we get is this "effective altruism" bullshit, which is just regular billionaire puppetry with a shiny new coat.
I could be mistaken but I think another ChatGPT discussion on HN had people saying it would sometimes cite sources, and other times just make them up.
I'd love to play around with such tools, but I think they'd only get you so far before they'd start to become a hinderance.

The linter in mathematics is whether the other mathematician (whoever you're proving to) knows what you mean. If you're locked into a rigidly defined syntax, an obvious line of questioning is: what's not expressible in this syntax?

I fear that by the time the tooling was agreed on, built, and taught in schools, you'd have something like APL, which might be cool to code in, but from which the mathematical conversion would have moved on a while ago. Efforts like that, after all, are how math becomes engineering.

Consider, for instance, Russel's theory of types, which was interesting math at the time and now strikes the student with an engineering background as "pretty much just Java" (or any "normal" statically typed language).
In most contexts that's what I use. In contexts where it can be misleading I'll be more specific.
We are having fun, for sure. And I suspect we’re making coding for the terminal just a wee bit more accessible for some. With Python and Textual folk can spin up a good looking app pretty quickly (see our tutorial).

Perhaps it’ll lead one or two more people down the path to eventually learning ncurses (or S-Lang, which I tended to use back in the day).
