Most implementations of generating non-sequential(-appearing) IDs have the property that they generate keys uniformly at random in a different keyspace. An attacker that can gather a large number of IDs can get an arbitrarily-good guess at the number of IDs you've generated.

If the attacker can only check whether certain keys exist, they can just pick a 2^N-sized range of your keyspace, look up whether all those keys exist, and extrapolate from that an increasingly good (with higher N) guess of how many IDs you've generated.
The idea is to compose intermediaries run by different parties, so that no single entity has access to both the unencrypted payload and client ip address / connection context. It’s a controlled form of proxying where the proxy doesn’t have access to the plaintext. Not currently designed for everyday browsing; the use cases are things like collecting telemetry.
You could use separate databases, but then how's the experience in moving from one database to the other?
A few thoughts on your "bad day" idea though.

It depends on how you handle a bad day. If you are self aware and explain "I am having a bad day before I got here." any rep with a modicum of empathy will appreciate your grace/effort to not lose your shit, often being extra nice about it.

But that relies on customer 5% not meeting a rep in that 5% too.

Indeed. The silk road and new pipelines to Central Asian oilfields are crucial for China to diversify its energy sources, given the naval realities in the Pacific. So the western province of Xinjiang has become crucial... and hence the Uyghur genocide :-( The CCP, from its perspective, can't risk having a potentially rebellious ethnic group in such a critical region.
I wasn't the one insisting that Mexico and Central America were ice-free. The glaciation blocked off many high-altitude passes like the paso de cortes. Most of the taller ranges along the American cordillera had some level of glacial activity during the LGM and that meaningfully impacted regional climates throughout the Americas.
http://RSS.app helps to generate feeds almost from any website even if it doesn't have native one.

Also, soon there are will be feature to send "news alerts" right to Slack, Telegram, Discord.

So it solves some problems.
This is complete propaganda BS. The EU has broke smaller countries. Greece for example, might never recover. Worse, because of the freedom of movement, most of the youth are moving to the west (Germany, Netherlands, etc…) and this had made greece actually lose workers and population. Greece unemployment went down not because there are more jobs, but because there are less job’s seekers.
It's been a long time, so i could be wrong, but I remember we did face the problem at some point.

Either way, not having a limit makes it even easier to use, which I really appreciate
Yes, and Croatia is a nice target for tourism from its northern EU neighbors, so reducing friction for that is a boost to economy.
If everything works out, grapnel could use it and queries would be cacheable by generic http caches. A lot would need to happen to make that work, though. The immediate motivation is to get an alternative to people who want to put a request body on GET.

> 'In the beginner's mind, there are many possibilities, in the expert's mind there are few'

This is a great quote. Once one knows how to do something the "right" way it becomes very difficult to do it any other way. That said, perhaps true expertise isn't about knowing the correct solution to a given problem, and is rather about realising that problems themselves can be changed in order to permit different, more desirable solutions.

I think one of the most common ways in which programmers fail is by immediately accepting a problem as a given and jumping into the solution space. So often we will come up with a perfect solution to a stated problem, when a slightly different problem has a 10x cheaper / safer / faster solution.

Indeed, compared to any native app it’s terrible.

If you care about UX, you should make native apps.
This is an important technical discussion, one that the community needs to keep having to reduce unnecessary work and get more cross-platform support. There is a lot to be learned from (and reused) from history.

For example, part of the post here is "When web-land wants to access the device keychain, it sends a message to native-land, and native-land responds with a primitive value. Neither native-land or web-land ever have to think about "messages" though. They're just function calls. Web-land has no idea that its function calls are being converted to postMessage calls behind the scenes."

That is very similar to Microsoft COM, DCOM and COM+, which all appeared at the points when Microsoft had to cope with levels of complexity similar to those in the browser and mobile platform diversity observe todday.

That land you describe has “semi-hidden” enclaves of some of the richest households in the entire country. There is a reason why it’s underdeveloped.

They don’t want you living near them.
> In this hypothetical, the rest do object to the pet issues of others in the coalition, but only weakly

That means that the majority wants those issues. If 20% of the population wants something, 10% opposes it, and 70% doesnt care if it passes, it means that a majority wants that policy to pass. The majority does not need to be for something explicitly for it to be a majority decision. There has to be more people in a society wanting something than those who dont, and the rest not objecting to that policy. Its still a majority decision.
My experience from retail: I often went months without a single nasty customer. I don’t know if I’m good with people or not but it was pretty rare to have an issue. Most of the bad customers were blatant shoplifters too, and not nasty at all (even these were uncommon)
You are looking at this with hindsight bias and are assuming that for some reason the future will remain the same as the past. There are no fundamental reasons why ios and android development occur with two different ui frameworks in two different languages.

With low interest rates companies will not be able to justify paying 3x to maintain 3 different apps when they could theoretically just pay 1x for one app that works everywhere
If you wouldn’t have bought it with a ridiculous amount of money if it would ever go down, maybe that’s a hint that prices are, indeed, way too high…

Please do not conflate the case for Jewish settlement in Egypt with the flat earth theory. The former does not have enough convincing evidences yet to be found while the latter is straight up denial of the truth despite the numerous clear evidences.

>Such people nowadays would be called delusional though.

Not necessarily, at all.
Advaita is supposed to be very rational and logical, and not require faith. Faith belongs to the path of Bhakti Yoga (faith/devotion to God), while Advaita is about the path of Jnana Yoga, the path of knowledge.

Also, the Wikipedia article about Advaita Vedanta seems to me to be somewhat poor, and factually wrong in parts, IMO, though I am not an expert on this. I may think this way because my family has some background knowledge about Advaita, Adi Shankara, Sanskrit and related subjects related to Hinduism, going back some generations, so I may have picked up some stuff by osmosis, apart from what I have read and studied and practiced myself.
No no your links are good, very cool to learn about rangevoting.com, I can see it has a ton to teach. But it's hard to immediately reconcile the data from these links with my own intuitions and first hand experiences and draw conclusions while still in the middle of the discussion.

You're making the argument that I shouldn't be concerned about people thresholding their votes because scaled sincerity is a nearly optimal strategy in a cardinal voting scheme, so people can vote with their heart and not feel like their vote has been wasted. That's one of the findings in the paper you shared[1] that Scaled Sincerity gets (at worst) 91% of the utility compared to Mean Based Thresholding when there are 3 candidates, 80% percent for 5 candidates, 78% for 9... etc

But there'll still inevitably be an election where 2 candidates were very close and the scaled sincerity voters who supported the 2nd place candidate feel like the election was stolen from them. The media will make an uproar about it. Voters will vote with a thresholding scheme after that. So in this case we should just skip to approval voting so people don't feel like they were robbed of the fraction of the vote they didn't contribute to their candidate.

Your other point is people will bullet vote in ranked voting and so I'm defending it too strongly. Your other article[0] very strongly argues that IRV is worse than approval voting in regards to getting bullet voters. I know it's a cop out of me to quote the criticisms that the article itself provides, but the data size really is too small. In their summary of comparisons, 16% bullet voting in Burlington and ~21% bullet voting in Irish presidential are not bad percentages in my opinion, and I don't know anything about the SF 07 or Dartmouth 06 elections.

I don't understand why the low computational complexity is important as long as the algorithm is simple to understand. Bubble sort has higher computational complexity but is a simpler algorithm than merge sort. But I don't know the details of vote counting in practice. If the computational complexity is so high that you wouldn't even determine who won until days or weeks later and was highly prone to error, then I'd stand corrected.

I don't see how cardinal voting would make a difference in there being multiple parties.

Edit: Also I don't mean to occupy either of our New Years Eves on this conversation. I could be sold on approval voting if that's the takeaway you're trying to get it. I learned a lot today. Hope nothing I said offended in any way.

I work at Twitter and this article is nonsense. Yes, he is cutting costs, but there is no problem with the bathrooms that I've ever seen. Can't believe no one here is questioning this. I thought people on HN were smarter than this. Disappointing.
>provided that what you do with the work is 'fair'.

This requires a comprehensive evaluation. When using something like a movie for fair use you will need to make sure that what you making is for a different use than just entertainment and also use as little of the work as possible. Streaming a movie on twitch and titling your stream "Cinematography Class" isn't enough for it to be fair use.
What was in the public realm is the only thing that matters.

The votes in the 70s / 80s, which were the basis of what we have now were about trade, not peace via trade.

you are referring to 'they' without qualifying 'they'.

Political union was never on a ballot paper in most countries. In the cases it was (Maastricht referendums) then it was not conclusive .

EDIT:

Apologies for being anglocentric, but the Labour (dominant political party in UK at the time) didn't seem to include inter-European aggression in its arguments against a supernational state in 1950

> The NSA, […has] a vested interest in protecting critical domestic infrastructure

One of the biggest cluster of cyber attacks ever, WannaCry, is attributed to NSA directly. They developed and sat on the exploit for 5 years, until it leaked, because even the NSA can be compromised. Government lives in a “we need good guys to have the biggest guns” Cold War-like mindset and are terrible role models for championing cyber security.

Auditing in general is primarily used as a tool to shift liability, or “ass-covering”, and sell a false sense of security by abusing information asymmetry. That said, there’s nothing wrong with auditing when deployed within a more informed and aligned incentive structure.

eBay disabled RSS. It was a great way to quickly now when something you were looking for was posted.

A couple of news media sites I'd like to follow on RSS disabled their RSS feeds a couple of years ago.
When a cop pulls you over, “I’m not your driver” is true, but “I’m not a driver” is false. I’d call the difference a lot more than “incidental”.
I think it’s more like they need to make the warehouse jobs easier. Trying to get peak productivity out of people burns them out quickly and they go through so many people they actually burn through the entire job applicant pool.
I can add it for sure! It's just a bit more technically involved so maybe next year!
The precedent for that was set by http/2; while the spec didn’t require it (Snowden happened after that decision was made), all of the inplementatuons did.
Exactly, the same kind of name problem.
Capitalism has a bunch of negative feedback loops - usually by becoming a problem you help solve it. If people notice that a particular good is about to become really expensive and switch sides to become a producer, they increase the supply of it and drive the price down. Even if they hoard and don't produce anything, they drive the price up early, when existing producers might still be able to increase production, and then drive the price down during the shortage as they unload their hoard. If people notice that renters are going to get fucked by rising rents and buy property to become landlords, they increase competition in the landlord market and drive rents down during the crisis.

The average person gets the initial capital to enter the game of capitalism by living like a poor person and banking the difference. That's how it works: this "capital" that earns a return is simply the difference between what people earn and what they consume. If you get a positive return on it you might eventually start being able to earn like a rich person and live like an average person.
I love the concept, dense information in a relatively small area.

I would love if it had markings for minutes/seconds.

With the 12 hour clock each hour marking corresponds to an integer amount of minutes or seconds (e.g. the marking "1" is 5 seconds/minutes, "2" is 10 seconds/minutes etc)

But with a 24 hours one, this happens only every 2 hours ("13" is halfway between 2 and 3 seconds/minutes, "14" is 5 seconds/minutes) so I'm finding it hard to read minutes and seconds.
That's a great idea! I'll add that tomorrow!
Approval voting has been shown to increase voter satisfaction. I'll bet it would increase voter satisfaction for billionaires as well. They'd no longer be stuck with just a few bad candidates to choose between.
>As long as you are optimistic on the "SOME" fraction being small in comparison to the gigantic size of Tether, you can hope that Tether is still a low risk for losing your value.

What is the "size of Tether"? Do you mean the total customer deposits, or do you mean the assets of Tether Limited Inc?

The percentage of customer deposits lost and whether any customer deposits are lost are distinct things.

Once the owners' net equity is negative, who will be holding the bag if not customers?
I confess I got in the habit of doing this... view source, crtl+f for 'rel=alte'... It made me feel embarrassed for the state of RSS support in the world.

The best experience I've had is using a browser extension that detects the tag, shows an icon, and lets me use it to subscribe with a custom /subscribe?url= link; but the extension I was using kept crashing on presumably non-spec feeds.

Bonus would be if someone came up with a protocol for your feed reader to advertise to the extension that it can handle subscribing to feeds to simplify configuring a custom reader.

Can anyone recommend an extension for FF?
By "hitting the backend" do you mean generating μ-ops? Because nops don't generate μ-ops yet branches definitely do.

fellow American here, re: "most states consider each other rivals," as a person who's lived all over the US, I strongly believe that feeling is in one direction.

There is all this rhetoric in red-state politics, governors shipping immigrants to NYC, Texans obsessing over Nancy Pelosi, babble about "east coast values." That shit simply doesn't exist in the other direction. It's true that coastal elites harbor a lot of resentment toward "rednecks" for things like the recent abortion ruling, but… they just don't obsess the same way. Mostly they just don't think about them at all.

> Silicon Valley could not have happened elsewhere

I’ve discussed this here before, I think, but SV could have happened in the UK, as they were well ahead of everyone else in some areas. The reason it didn’t, as I’ve been repeatedly told by people who live there, is because at that time they had an entrenched culture that was "anti-anorak", or against hacker culture. The funding wasn’t there because proto-hackers were looked down upon by the establishment as powerless nerds incapable of furthering societal progress. On the other hand, SV happened in the US because these so-called anoraks were given a chance that bore fruit with a large defense budget to further the post-WWII era of technological development.
Also, the United States works the same way. Only a few states produce most of the taxes that pay for the grifters like Mississippi. But it's good to do it because those people in the poor states wouldn't be able to survive by themselves. Everyone deserves a chance. It's sad the whole world doesn't get the same chance as those in rich big countries and unions.
Love the face that includes 7 days! Very minimalistic!
Also when you consider other dimensions of personality that are normally distributed, and intelligence which is also normally distributed... it's not hard to imagine the bottom tails of some of those being contributing factors.

I sort of think what you're really seeing within that 5% is a majority fraction of "baseline shitty" people, and a minority people of "momentarily shitty" people.

The baseline shitty people are likely a kaleidoscope/patchwork of pathologies, and the momentarily shitty people fall within normal ranges but circumstances have pushed their stress levels north of what they can handle.
Yes. It's called SteamDeck.
As individuals we need some reassurance that our actions matter and there is no better way to achieve that than to identify "great men" (somehow these characters are always male) and posit that they somehow managed to single handedly change history.

Thinking is systems, discontinuous, non-linear collective phenomena precipitate social changes like a breaking wave. Invariably somebody will be at the cusp and a smaller number might even have the energy, ruthlessnes and thick skin to survive there for a longer period.

This makes them no more "responsible" for a new industry than a molecule is responsible for the existence of the wave. But paint that well placed molecule with a fluerescent marker and it does a good job identifying the location of the discontinuity.

This is really the main role of the "crazy people". To signal to the silent "normie" multitudes the existence of a shock front.
Similar thoughts. As I read through the “why HTTP took off” explanations, I was surprised that the more obvious “it was the first thing that a plurality of players networked on and after that it was all just bandwagoning, because it’s much easier to meet people at other people’s parties than try to host your own” wasn’t enumerated.

Netflix doesn't make that impossible. If your friends feel the same you could coordinate. No need to wait a full week either. When services withhold episodes of a show I won't even start it until they're all out. I may or may not end up binge-watching, but either way, I much prefer to watch things on my own schedule. During the pandemic we even used browser extensions to sync the episodes we were watching on netflix to within seconds.
I’m planning to smoke weed less frequently (daily -> weekly), get a job, exercise more, and learn to sail!
