These conversations are kind of like the airplane on the treadmill problem, where there are (approximately) two orthogonal sets of assumptions/preferences that lead to obvious but incompatible conclusions, and people end up yelling at each other over the conclusions without realizing the difference is just the underlying assumptions.

Personally - I don't want to live in a city, or a town, or even a neighborhood. I don't mind seeing my neighbors but I don't want to hear them and I don't really want to interact with them. I'm perfectly happy driving 30 minutes or 45 minutes into town to run errands. I don't think that living out in the suburbs (or further) is "boring" because I don't like crowds and I'm not going to do anything that people in cities do for "fun" anyway.

I'm living in a suburb now because I need to be close to work - and for my career involving hardware, that's unlikely to ever change. But if I could truly work 100% remote and I knew this would last me 10 years - I'd move somewhere further away in a heartbeat.

If you think the world is made up mostly of people like me - you think remote work is going to devastate cities because who in their right mind would want to live there if not for work? If you think the world is made up mostly of people who want to live in cities in the first place - you think remote work will make cities better because a lot of disadvantages of city living are due to the need to accommodate a daily commute.

You can already use WebGPU today, if you're targeting something other than the browser. There's already game engines & graphics libraries being made thru one of the WebGPU implementations, and you can always start using it now after some setup. wgpu (Firefox's) for Rust or Dawn (Chrome's) for C/C++/Zig.

I did something like this, also on Windows 2000, when I was in high school. It definitely surprised some teachers....

I also discovered that our student IDs and PINs were based on our birthdays, though I was not creative enough to come up with an amusing use of student logins.
> why not just accept SQL and cut out all the unnecessary mapping?

You might be interested in what we're building: Seafowl, a database designed for running analytical SQL queries straight from the user's browser, with HTTP CDN-friendly caching [0]. It's a second iteration of the Splitgraph DDN [1] which we built on top of PostgreSQL (Seafowl is much faster for this use case, since it's based on Apache DataFusion + Parquet).

The tradeoff for allowing the client to run any SQL vs a limited API is that PostgREST-style queries have a fairly predictable and low overhead, but aren't as powerful as fully-fledged SQL with aggregations, joins, window functions and CTEs, which have their uses in interactive dashboards to reduce the amount of data that has to be processed on the client.

There's also ROAPI [2] which is a read-only SQL API that you can deploy in front of a database / other data source (though in case of using databases as a data source, it's only for tables that fit in memory).

I was worried for them, glad it worked out. I wouldn't be so sure about this statement: "now that I’m a grownup I know that [...] we wouldn’t have gotten in very much trouble anyway."

Unfortunately this was the type of thing that would get students banned from the computers, or only allowed to actually use the computers on Friday to do their computer science work (like my friend Dave).

Speaking of NET SEND specifically, I went to a vendor for training once (circa 2000) and they mentioned someone who had recently come for training and was sent home because they had used NET SEND * there. I wonder what their employer thought of that.

Either me or a friend has at some point (in the 80s or 90s as minor students) been: kicked out of computer lab, had notes posted in the library that we are not to "hone our programming skills", kicked out of the Supercomputer Challenge[1], been told (second-hand) we're "a security risk" by the government, been put specifically under remote monitoring by the teacher, lectured, sent to the principle, had the police sent to their house, been told we "probably have an FBI record" and "are putting their parents' jobs at risk" over similar levels of playing around with computers that they let us use, not even trying to do anything particularly "hacker (cracker)"-like.

Building infrastructure is scoped for maximum occupancy at a point-in-time, not over time. And maximum occupancy is typically denser in an office than residential.

Put another way, what matters is the maximum volume the electrical, sewer, HVAC, elevators, emergency power, etc can handle. If it is scoped to handle 1,000 people for 8 hours of a day, it will do just fine for 300 people 24 hours per day.

Truth is even they won't really know until they have time to do a post mortem.

Some observations, though.

- Via the departure control, manifests, etc...they DID know where their crews went. Any employee flying non-rev, deadhead, or on duty is recorded by employee number. There was likely a problem with keeping that synced with the crew management platform.

- Large parts of this have little to do with technology. Point to point versus hub and spoke means less slack. And recently, SWA has removed even more slack trying to drive revenue with aggressively optimistic schedules, overbooking, tight crew slack, etc. If they didn't pull pack the schedule in small, manageable pieces like the other airlines did, there's no system that would save them. Seems likely they didn't pull back enough before the storm. There's a brink you can't go past, and a rate of cancels you shouldn't exceed. You have to guess right earlier.

- Crew unions have historically negotiated out anything that looks like big brother, location tracking for example...even on-demand "I'm here". So lots of things that could have made this better didn't exist , on purpose.

- A fair amount of the reset is just practicalities of using planes empty of pax to get rested crews staged in the right cities and bags to the right places.

Imagine a fully offline system. The only way to interact with it is by sitting directly next to it. Instead of a NIC it has an employee with a telephone on her desk.

It’s a bit odd tbh because around here even a city of almost half a million souls isn’t more than about a 25 minute drive from honeybee territory even if you stand in the heart of downtown. So while I do live in a cornfield, I have gigabit fiber and am in a new construction suburb right on the border between the honeybees and the actual city limits. It’s a nice mix. And since the area of a circle increases with the square of its radius I expect it to stay roughly at this level of development for quite a while since there’s tons of space.

I don’t think you could even get a response from someone at the local ISPs to laugh at you for asking about running fiber though, so you do have to pre-check that if (since) it’s important to you. (I did). It’s ATT and Spectrum (née Charter) around here.
That goes without saying :)

I think the answers is yes, there has been grumbling about LastPass for years. Prior to them being owned by LogMeIn.

They were hacked back in 2015 too: https://www.wired.com/2015/06/hack-brief-password-manager-la...

> On Monday password manager service LastPass admitted it had been the target of a hack that accessed its users' email addresses, encrypted master passwords, and the reminder words and phrases that the service asks users to create for those master passwords.

Use the Brave browser then. It's on the App Store.

If you're the type of person who wants to add other search engines and trigger them via URL parameters, you're the type of person who knows that Apple's system is a walled garden. At this point, it often doesn't feel like people are asking "Hey, could you improve this?" and more like the same complaint over and over again with the complaint being "Apple is still Apple and instead of buying another thing after Apple being exactly like this, I complain about the thing I bought being the exact thing I bought".
Some of the most popular platforms online are largely anonymous (Reddit and Twitter). Most of the time, you don’t even notice the username of the person responding to you. They might as well be bots, but people don’t care.

Heck, Reddit threads are often so predictable that they might as well be written by bots.

So yeah, most people just want to talk and feel that someone, something is listening to them. People rejecting your idea need to recalibrate their understanding of the depth and breadth of human loneliness.

My observation in Boston is that driving in by car at rush hour is as bad as it has ever been. Commuter rail ridership seems to be significantly down relative to pre-pandemic so some of the traffic probably comes from that, but it's still very heavy so a lot of people are obviously still commuting in.
You can use Windows sandbox or Sandboxie to test it out and do a sanity check, but in general, yes, it seesm OK. You never know though, given the current state of afairs in the world.

A clever hacker has gone and ported a modern SSL library to System 7, plus SSH [1]. Runs on a 68030+ Mac. OpenTransport, not MacTCP. And I imagine key exchange takes a few minutes... but yeah, you can ssh into a contemporary machine over the open Internet using a Mac SE/30 under System 7. (You could also just run NetBSD on the thing and run an entirely modern stack, in theory. The SE/30 can take 128 MB of RAM. It's one of the oldest machines out there that can run a current operating system! Though I'm unsure whether Firefox would finish loading before the heat death of the universe.)

Had 3.5 weeks of excel classes in school, completed everything in 2 days and spent the rest of the time playing quake or annoying the ones not finished with net send in loops. Now that I think about I'm not sure this classroom of computers were on their own broadcast network or not, but they were running an older version of windows that didn't block net send by default while others had a newer version.
Same series of events happened at my school.

1. Discover net send

2. Discover net send *

3. Get in trouble for using net send *

The next step was discovering telnet and the schools smtp server.
Sorry to say it so bluntly, but this sounds like classic "tech solution to a people problem" to me.

At least to me, the restriction "only one post, but you can update it" seems pretty arbitrary to me. It's not clear to me why updating a post should lead to more meaningful content than creating a new post - or why following a stream of updates should somehow be less of a dopamine treadmill than following a stream of posts.
I would love if they had a rating per county of speed traps in case you’re driving alone on a long stretch at night and there is no one to report them.
This sublanguage will either be useless or will not prevent DoS.

The proper way to prevent DoS is to implement some kind of resource constraints for database queries.

AFAIK for postgres every connection launches a separate database process. So in theory you can craft some kind of ulimits or cgroup limits which would restrict a process to a limited amount of RAM, CPU or IOPS. So if a given process will eat more RAM, it'll be killed, if it wants to mine bitcoins, it'll be throttled and killed by timeout eventually.
I’ve been doing something similar at home for years. An OpenBSD box at the egress point exports IPFIX data to nfdump and I designed custom charts for myself using the legacy dygraphs. IPFIX plus nfdump is wonderful as I can quickly use a tcpdump-like interface to very quickly search against data from months ago and the dygraphs charting allows me to easily see traffic patterns with the ability to quickly zoom in.
In the Terms and Conditions, they list various different sources and give restrictions on what you can do with them. For example, it's illegal to make screenshots of 3D maps.

Complexity is quadratic in sequence length. For 512 tokens it is 262K, but for 4000 tokens it becomes 16M and goes OOM on a single GPU. We need about 100K-1M tokens to load whole books at once.

Since 2017 there have been hundreds of attempts to bring O(N^2) to O(N), but none of them replaced the vanilla attention yet in large models. They lose on accuracy. Maybe Flash attention has a shot (https://arxiv.org/abs/2205.14135).

Classic Apple deflection.
Yes. But prior to this breach it was easy to look the other way due to the extremely large amount of inertia associated with changing a manager and all your passwords. I know this was the case for me. In August we thought it was simply another "simple" breach. E.g. they got hold of some information that would be useful to spearphish or whatever but not the vaults themselves. No big deal, just be on the lookout for emails.

Once it came to light they lost control of their vaults the calculus changed. In my memory this is the largest, most prolific breach in history. Every other breach of a major site pales in comparison. The only solution is to change password managers immediately (I went to 1password) and begin the process of changing everything and updating your security posture. Unfortunately, the hackers also have an insane amount of metadata on customers. So if you stored incriminating (either legally or socially) websites in there the hackers now have a lot of leverage to get you to bend the knee.

In summary, lastpass has been on the down slope for a long time. But it was easy to just accept this and work around it. This breach changed everything. It revealed their incompetence in full and woke a lot of people, including myself, up to just how hard it is to trust a company. It's just not enough anymore to have a big company slapped onto your logo (LogMeIn) and hope they provide the correct mitigations through experience. From now on I, and many people I know, will be carefully evaluating their choices with password managers, etc from now on. I don't think their CEO can be trusted especially with all the weasel words used in the disclosure and the timing of the disclosure. They showed no respect for their customers in either the aspect of security or disclosure. If you know nothing else about this breach that should be enough to get you and everyone you know to run.
Ofcourse they are. Majority of that stuff isn't executable, or if it is, it relies on exploits of viewers, so by using something else you are probably safe.

Also, there are sandboxes if you are unsure and you can convert to safer formats.

Anyway, I yet have to meet somebody that was fucked up this way, I guess there are numerious easier options.

Its way more probably that your country will hunt you, if you live in that lame country in which case VPN is a thing :)
On the flip side, money is a great motivator. Being able to collect and sell metorites probably drives a lot more finds and interest overall. I agree that it's nice to donate them to science, but many of the meteorites in private collections would have never been discovered in a world where the government owns them all, so the current system doesn't seem so bad to me.
If transportation accessibility has recently peaked and will invert, with fuel and vehicle prices continuing along current trends, the lower classes become increasingly less mobile. The better off can drive their $100k SUV to fine dining and museums, which may be as close as the nearby town/city center. They might accept that trade-off in exchange for space and separation from urban blight.
I’m not sure that’s the case although we heard that third hand from Reddit.

Skysolver is a GE Flight Services trademark - there’s a video here showing how it works and SW planes in the video. Contrary to the reddit claim, it does appear to use a predictive algorithm.

Highlight quote from the video:
“It is humanly impossible when there’s a major disruption for somebody to figure out what the optimal approach is to get them back on schedule”

Edit: I could see tracking off-duty crew being difficult and done by phone - employees don’t carry beacons and would you want that surveillance from your company? In this situation many crew could be home for the holidays and far from their last known location, and stranded due to problems with other airlines, trains, or roads.

Assuming this is the case, where folks can override during an incident like this, it sounds like the simulation tooling doesn’t have a human loop interface to demonstrate potential effects post override.

Does that type of simulation interface exist in the industry? And would it have helped?

This brings back memories.

My favorite discovery was that the "scheduled tasks" folder was shared on every computer in our school. This meant you could do the net send * bomb from a friend / enemies computer, and get them in trouble.

The other fun one was Borland C++ 6 had a limit on how wide the code window could be -- you could only horizontally scroll so far. However, you could hold down tab for a few seconds, then write something like cout<<"logout next time"; in their code. Unless you knew the trick, you'd never find the code afterwards -- you couldn't scroll to the right far enough due to the limitation of the viewing window.
