Amazon's security theater destroys password security
Oh wow, I never expected such a fatal security flaw from Amazon: I just logged in to my account with email and password. They emailed me a one-time code because it was a new device. Afterwards, I could see my shipping addresses, billing data, etc. as usual and submit the order.

Then I got an automated email: "Someone unauthorized might have access to your account. To protect your security, we have disabled your password. Please use the following link to reset your password."

And now I can click the link and they'll email me an OTP code which I can use to login into the account WITHOUT ANY PASSWORD !!!
Because dating these days is about being photogenic and being in scenic places...

People who are on the Internet a lot, and people who look good on dating apps are really invested in social media, and that means finding a partner who works well with that.

Dating apps are also heavily paywalled. Communication is not facilitated at all by dating apps... It's a pretty grim future for meaningful matching to be honest. I get dates as well, but hate the feeling of meeting through an app because it feels like a revolving door of Internet faces, not like a great way to make trustworthy partners.
> I would argue that a very large contributing factor in our young men's disillusionment with dating is a product of the damage being done to our young women

Can you please elaborate more on this conclusion? I agree with everything you said until that statement.
Well, it looks like he's not a software engineer? That's my only explanation - I can't imagine how any software engineer would claim any system as complex as car infotainment system does not have any possible bugs. Unless they made mathematically rigorous mode of it and achieved a formal proof of it - but then we'd probably have heard about it, because AFAIK it has never been done before.
> Could you run the then current operating system in 2006 on a computer that you bought in 1986?

Linux can do something very similar. You can run the latest version of Gentoo Linux today on an Intel 486 from 1989.
In my experience, undergrad courses in theoretical physics can be extremely tedious, and a CAS can be quite helpful to double check your results.
I followed the trail on one of these before. It was backed by a real company, and as best I can tell, you really can get the $1000 if you jump through enough hoops. These hoops involve signing up for auto-renew free-trial subscription services (requiring payment info), surveys, etc.

Definitely not something I'd want to bother participating in, but it seems like it's not a complete scam. It has scammy vibes, but seemingly not out-right illegal, such that the company is allowed to continue to exist.

The supposed Mr beast endorsement is the potential sticking point, I suppose he isn't in on it, but he'd have to be the one to complain to YouTube about impersonation - I doubt you'd get very far trying to report it as a 3rd party without concrete evidence of impersonation.

I guess I realised before opening the site, but special mention for the backed by blockchain part. I kind of lost it on that.

Perhaps the next version will have ChatGPT enhancements?
It's only controversial in the US. Sex work is a legitimate job. We are selling our brain time on a daily basis to employer. Someone else is selling labor and cleaning the sewers. It's exactly the same thing unless you have a religious agenda.

> Also, it seems presumptuous to prescribe what appropriate solutions are for all people of all time. There are many, many places where an electronjs would be just fine.

And many where it wouldn't. It seems more presumptuous to me to demand that users have machines with that much memory and CPU to spare.
Verizon for one, at least in the US. I know I used e164.arpa for testing purposes, until new management came in and demanded we use the domain we use in production for testing (because, well, production, I guess? Keep the configs as the same as much as possible?).

Now that I've name names (or a name), how about you? Who uses e164.arpa?
With their much higher fertility rate, Amish society will probably outlast ours.

It is pretty simple. Either they will be single forever or find a sucker to marry them.

These women are unrealistic. As they get older their requirements for a man go up instead of going down. They think a man with wealth and options is going to choose them instead of a younger woman. It is pretty sad really.
But well, for a son it will mean "having a hard time getting laid" (which is a good thing for a man because it gives motivation to achieve things). For a woman it means "being utterly unable to get married unless they sign for a man who is considered undateable/invisible and a shame be next to from the standpoint of 95% of their women peers". That is, average man, for an average woman.

A man can be hooking up with many girls but he can only marry one at a time. Which means, it's a double-edged sword: Tinder raised standards of what an acceptable male looks like, making it equally harder for men to get laid as for women to get married.
That's a profound thing to be offering.
> Very few; great ideas mostly happen outside of the Hollywood studio system

Often, "making it" in the Hollywood studio system is about being a part of an exclusive club. Very few people are allowed to proliferate their own ideas within the walled garden.
Here's hoping the author releases it as an app, then I could refer to it when I get into arguments at the Roulette table.
I think this will come down to personal preference. For me these sweet feminine woman are annoying as hell and they have expectations that you'll take care of things. I'll take the independent American or west European woman any time of the day.
Thanks for the video. What is also interesting is the episode prior to 2:19:... when two month before the war Bennett met Putin in Sochi. Zelensky wanted to contact Putin and meet him possibly to prevent the upcoming events. But to do this he had to ask Bennett to pass a message. And how the mood of Putin drastically changed and for some time Putin talked about "Nazism" and refused to make any contact. This is interesting also because even two months before the war the Ukraine-Russia interactions ceased to exist to the level when the only messenger possible was a head of another state
If having your "second" factor is sufficient to reset your password, then it's your only factor and you don't actually have 2FA.
They both use the OS' WebView to render the frontend. I only used Wails (I already knew Go) and used it to build simple desktop apps.

Throwaway. I’m looking for advice.

I live in a decently big city, I make very good money - close to 200k which is far above what most people here pull in. Lead teams of people. Am in mid 30s, well over 6ft. White. My (few) sexual partners couldn’t get enough. I work out with a generous physique, get compliments that I can’t even accept these days.

I’m extremely jaded. I stopped talking/interacting and even making eye contact with women despite working in an industry essentially dominated by them. I’m not sure what to do because the idea that a few men are getting all the women does not sit well with me at all. Even if I could be one of them, to me it’s a society-ruining move and I can’t in good faith participate.

So I feel disgust and this disgust is turning me into a misogynist.

I’d like to hear some thoughts as to how to get out of this rut and interact with women again without feeling like I’m being used, and that the average man out there can only dream of being in my position as he faces insurmountable rejection and will also be used in a far worse way than me. It just sounds like a kick in the balls.
Feature suggestion: add an endpoint powered by ChatGPT that can determine whether a program will terminate. Finance needs to track server expenses for ESG metrics.
uh yeah, it's going to work out well for the Russian economy.

> The businesses already sizing up their contracts when rebuilding Ukraine, the poorest country in the EU, starts in earnest, is going to be lucrative to say the least.

Yes I'm sure that's true. The war has happened, the rebuild is going to happen.

> You know that Putin is in on it by the seemingly random buildings being destroyed

No. lol
> while offering just three years of security updates, after which you basically have to throw the thing away

Nope, you don't.

It's just that somehow techies seem to have gotten this meme into their heads that an unpatched life isn't worth living. Can't update my phone within 1 microsecond of a patch being released? I guess I might as well just die. Much safer than risking the << 1% chance of getting malware on it, and everyone knows malware is worse than hell.

> The repairability sounds nice, but it is very irrelevant compared to the limited software updates.

I had an Android phone that didn't have OS updates for several years and... it was just fine. I was only forced to finally upgrade to get better reception on other bands it didn't support. If the hardware could keep pace I would've easily kept it with its current OS for another half decade, until apps just got so bloated that I couldn't use it anymore.

> Imagine buying a Windows laptop and only receiving three years of security updates

That's a bad analogy for so many reasons. Android's security is WAY more hardened than Windows's, your phone's apps (including your [likely] Chrome browser) would still get security updates, and even with Windows this isn't as horrifying as you're suggesting. (I've done much worse.)
I’m a 6 out of 10 at best in looks (aka average). I got 1 match per month. By hacking Tinder (took 50 to 100 hours to figure it out what works for me), I got 100 to 150 matches per month. Sure, you could have an even crazier dating life than I would have, but I am super happy with this and might have found a GF through it (too early to tell but one might have that potential). It took 6 months. Over the past 10 years I have been single for 10 months in total (3 long-term relationships).

So yes, again, that’s a far cry from what you get, but I have about one epic romantic encounter per three months and could have sex once per month by women I’d find attractive. So 33% of my bed partners are experienced as epic.

So yea, this is what happens when you don’t accept your fate and rebel against it: a dating life that I am happy with.

Conventional attractive guys have it way easier than I do, I am forced to build character by taking charge of my dating life and hacking it. That’s a fine trade-off by me. It’s also a forced trade-off, c’est la vie.

The real tough part was age 17 to 21. It took 4 years of active social skills improvement and self-improvement to lose my virginity to a woman that I would find attractive. For the first 3 years I wasn’t even able to kiss a girl. I was in the category: get laid or die trying (dramatizing here: I mean find a GF that I am happy with and she with me, the die trying part is accurate). I should have been an incel, really. But I refused and after 3 years enough clicked to make the topic of dating workable. It was very hard, but I came from the difficulty level called: it’s impossible. So very hard mode was an easy mode for me by that time

Anyone feeling stuck, feel free to email (in my profile). I don’t check it often but I know the pain and if I can help, I will
It's different, I've looked into Svonix for my usecase but it wasn't sufficient. Svonix does not support LiveView. It gets you a Svelte component in your Phoenix app without any interaction with the server. It also doesn't support Server Side Rendering which means on your first page load the Svelte component is not visible.

LiveSvelte does allow you to communicate back to the server, which in turn updates the Svelte component from the server, getting you E2E reactivity.
Do you have some reference on how to use the rewrite rules? I've meant to use them a few times but I've never seen a good tutorial or textbook.

Bingo. That's the sad reality unfortunately. Everyone wants a prince charming but at the end of the day men are busy and would rather live alone than be involved in drama

I wish all the people who just want to stir shit up on HN would pack up and go to another site. This does not belong here, glad it got flagged.
Can your “achy” joint predict the weather?
OK delaying marriage and family is normal for all countries and all cultures, there's nothing to be done about it and it has nothing to do with Tinder let alone with OnlyFans lol, it's simply because age of maturity has increased due to higher impact of career and education.

Of all things you said, i agree only with the "distortion of standards" thing. Again, it's global, has nothing to do with the U.S. or "West" in general, happens everywhere - even more so in more vertical, traditional Asian cultures (with corresponding decline of birthrates). Yet, it's a problem i can see no solution for unless single parenthood is completely normalised (which might require elimination of religion).
4. No carry-ons. I wonder if there's anything useful that could be done with the space.
I have magazines for a not-terribly-popular 8-bit computer, the Tandy Color Computer, that regularly exceeded 200 pages, and that was one of about four magazines devoted to that computer. There was no Internet back in those days.
Because, eh, it's true? Kids might be good for society but they are not for the particular woman/individual in question. These woman are making the right choice individually. I see lots of happy 35-45 woman doing brunches in mall. Something tells me they are not missing too much on the family bandwagon.
besides the answers already given, the network is already the bottleneck on supercomputers on a local network. training that over a WAN would exacerbate that issue and make training even slower.
> But MS is in a totally different business. HW manufacturers build and sell new devices to customers who then buy software from a different company (MS). One of the selling point of Windows is that it runs on basically all HW. But they can only afford this because they have monopolized the market.

It's really the opposite problem. Essentially all of the relevant phones run Android; the monopoly doesn't help. And PC/workstation hardware was supported for just as long back in the days of Novell Netware and proprietary Unix. Some of the hardware from those days is still supported now.

The problem isn't the lack of a monopoly, it's the presence of one. The majority of the SoCs in phones are from Qualcomm, and they provide neither documentation nor source code, even though the market is clamoring for the longer support lifetimes that would allow, because with limited competition they don't have to.

There was some hope that Samsung would do better, and they might increase their market share quite a bit if they did, but a duopoly still isn't much competition. Samsung is already a big enough player that they have to be weighing the increase in market share against the longer repurchasing cycle. The have to decide if they want to be the heroes and capture that much goodwill from the people paying attention and making recommendations to others, or not. So far so fail.

We need more competition.
What does it look like? I've never heard of either.

Laxative use may be linked to dementia risk, study says
I know people seem to see social factors in declining birth rate, but I mainly see economic causes. As population reduces, housing and employment become more available, meaning more people can afford to have children. A century ago more children meant more income, but now it means less. Reduce the marginal cost of children and demand will increase.
Wow didnt really expect to hear any confirmation from other users, let alone a response directly from the product team :)

Thanks for acknowledging and working on it. As a unpaid customer I can surely wait :)

Can I sneak in a couple of questions while I have your attention?

1. The upload says it only accepts MP3 and WAV -- but it seems to accept AAC as well in the past when we force it to? Also, why not support all other commonly used audio formats as well - should be (relatively) simple to add a conversion step?

2. Can we get some controls on how aggressive the noise filtering applied is? The result in some cases sounds like abrupt cuts, flubbed words, speaker suppressing a hiccup or burp etc :))

Oh and a suggestion --

If the issue we saw yesterday was due to a service being down or broken, ideally the error message displayed should say so -- so users don't assume the issue is on their side with their input file and try repeatedly and waste their own time.

EDIT:

The service now seems to be up but the AI processing is very poor. The resulting audio has so much of warbling/trembling artifacts on every syllable that it cannot be used at all. The original recording even with the noise and reverb from my room is much more listenable and understandable.

I hope you have some standard tests for your algorithm to measure teh quality of audio output for a given input clip

Thanks!

We have M777 guns, 155mm artillery, that shoots guns (called BONUS rounds) and those guns fly out and automatically shoot enemy tanks 20km away.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bofors/Nexter_Bonus

This has been done since the year 2000, with research demonstrating the ability in the 90s.

-------------

Are you kidding me? We've been putting robots inside of our guns and bullets for decades. Ever since the Nazis flew V1 Flying Bombs automatically during WW2 to automatically hit London, everyone's been putting robots inside of bullets.

USA did Proximity Rounds (Radar "AIs" that automatically blew up our bullets before hitting a target, allowing for a maximum "shotgun" effect to spread our anti-air pellets and maximize damage against Japanese Fighters in WW2).

This isn't even called "AI", its just how weapons work. Guns shoot 3km+ consistently, do you know why? Because we have "fire control computers", which under laymen's terms is an AI gun that calculates distance, movement, and other attributes to land our shots consistently.
Well, you have to understand how Taylor series work anyway. And then, of course, you have to understand differentiation. SymPy doesn't rob you of mathematical knowledge it just automates the grind.

Of course, there is nothing wrong in doing symbolic computations by hand. But it's like walking vs. riding a bicycle. You're still getting from A to B but you save some time and energy with the machine.

These days it’s pretty much done and finished. Xwayland works fairly well to the point you almost couldn’t tell.

The only issue with wayland usage currently is apps in the xwayland compatibility layer are lacking the new features wayland adds like dpi scaling across screens.

I’m very happy that wayland + pipewire + flatpak now gives us basic security practices like apps having to ask permission to record the mic/screen/webcam vs the state of things in X where being able to draw a window also grants full access to everything.

The Plan

In the beginning, there was a plan,
And then came the assumptions,
And the assumptions were without form,
And the plan without substance,

And the darkness was upon the face of the workers,
And they spoke among themselves saying,
"It is a crock of shit and it stinks."

And the workers went unto their Supervisors and said,
"It is a pile of dung, and we cannot live with the smell."

And the Supervisors went unto their Managers saying,
"It is a container of excrement, and it is very strong,
Such that none may abide by it."

And the Managers went unto their Directors saying,
"It is a vessel of fertilizer, and none may abide by its strength."

And the Directors spoke among themselves saying to one another,
"It contains that which aids plants growth, and it is very strong."

And the Directors went to the Vice Presidents saying unto them,
"It promotes growth, and it is very powerful."

And the Vice Presidents went to the President, saying unto him,
"This new plan will actively promote the growth and vigor
Of the company With very powerful effects."

And the President looked upon the Plan
And saw that it was good,
And the Plan became Policy.
All general means in that sentence is that the price increasing factors are more prevalent than the price decreasing ones.

If there are several structural issues (eg greatest workforce change in 3 generations, war in Europe, worldwide pandemic, etc) they can all contribute to a general inflationary (or deflationary) trend.

It’s a very particular economic school that says only monetary policy causes inflation. And we have years and years of loose policy that didn’t put inflation on the front burner for economists to argue about.
I thought I was a fairly attractive guy. I’ve had interest from attractive women in the past. On dating apps though? Crickets. I’ve had several friends vet my profile (who were quite brutal with their feedback, too) but I still only average around 1 match per week.

If I’m supposed to be a somewhat attractive guy, I can imagine the vast majority of men must be getting no interest at all.
