Yeah, just like "competitors are forbidden" from, say, inserting their tech, logos, etc., into, e.g., vehicles. You're not going to find Ford allowing Tesla to stick its stuff in Ford's EV fleet, and vice-versa.

This whole strange fascination with claiming Apple is a monopoly is just silly. There is at least one major competitor to Apple in the mobile market (said competitor actually dominates that market by a huge margin) and literally dozens in the PC market. Apple isn't a monopoly, and it doesn't have to let competitors distribute their products within its own ecosystem.

Capitalism and free markets are not synonymous, and you can have the latter without the former (indeed, that was the case for most our history as economic species).

Capitalism is detrimental to free markets because it has inherent positive feedback loops that concentrate capital. Concentration of capital inhibits competition, and a market without competition is by definition not free, regardless of the amount of government regulation in it.
Note: DNS already has a cache invalidation mechanism in the TTL of the DNS record. I think you’d be well advised to simply use that; i.e. just look up the domain every time, and let the DNS TTL be your caching mechanism for domain lookups.

(You’d also probably better make sure your DNS resolver uses DNSSEC validation, and that your DNS resolving code path requests it by default.)
Google has seen a massive decline in quality and they are a company of very questionable morals. I think it's fair to say they are evil.

Still, Google is the reason millions of people can make a living, who would have been locked out of their industry by gate keepers if search engines didn't exist.

The standard static HTML website that can be found by Google is vastly superior to social media offerings. Creators and businesses can not sell their products through social media like Instagram, because you can not even put a link unless you purchase their spy ads. With crusty old WordPress you can create great online publications and articles as long as you want - no popular social media offers that.

The general public use the internet exclusively for social media, and at most a couple of web sites for work or other functions. That is because the general public has an insatiable appetite for mindless entertainment. That doesn't mean the traditional web has failed, it's still there and Google is still king on that hill. The social media hordes are the same people who would be glued in front of the TV in the past. Social media attention and likes are close to worthless in the end for creators and businesses. I'd rather have 100 customers brought by Google and a traditional web site, than 1 000 000 Instagram likes from people looking at my post for 0.03 seconds while scrolling. When people are looking for important information or want to make a purchase online, they go by Google almost all of the time, and almost never by social media.

> They are willing to take that deal over what google is offering. Maybe Google should have parted with some of the profit to convince content creators not to go to closed platforms.

Google is not taking anything from anybody. You can index your content with them for free, and they will send visitors to your site. Social media will just use your content to get eyeballs for their own ads.

The average business owner treats their traditional website as an annoying hassle, when it could be a window into the world and massively increase their sales and customer service. They love social media, because Facebook and Instagram feeds them like and heart icons.
NATs at very least complicate things.

Even if you never allow anything in from outside that wasn’t established from the inside first, it still removes an added layer of complexity from things.
Ideally you could use the domain as a (vanity) pointer to an immutable handle and when someone follows the domain they'd actually be following an immutable identity that's a combination of the domain + immutable handle which reference each other.

Why would they be "scared shitless"? They've demonstrated the ability to crack down hard and defeat those movements. For instance: the Hong Kong protests ended almost immediately once China decided to take the gloves off.

> Mining sealanes and destroying airfields = west couldnt run blockade even if they wanted.

The Berlin airlift had a similar dynamic. The USSR could have shot down the planes - but they did not as it would have brought them too close to war. If the US/Japan sends an escorted "relief" convoy via air or sea - China is unlikely to intercept without triggering a direct conflict.

A direct war between the US/Japan/Australia/EU(?) and China benefits no one and runs dangerously close to a world war. In a similar way that Russia could attempt to stop arms flows from Poland and Germany into Ukraine - they don't really have the option without risking a full war which they cannot win.

In a hypothetical "narrow" conflict over the Taiwan straight between the US and China, a Chinese victory would mean 20k+ American casualties and an absent Pacific/Indian Ocean fleet. In the best case, China will no longer enjoy US protected global shipping lanes due to an absent USN. Worst case, the US threatens nuclear escalation to arrest the conflict (or follows through on the threat). A US victory would mean that the Chinese mainland is under direct attack from US carrier groups - Nuclear escalation would be almost inevitable.

The likely outcome is that the US and other Taiwan allies would be allowed to supply Taiwan without intervention in order to avoid a wider war.

That's nice if you can make it work, it's a quick solution to the housing problem. But for a lot of people being close to the economic powerhouse areas of the country is a win, and we should figure out how to make that work for them. And, long term, migrating further and further out is just going to delay the problem, because it'll arrive eventually unless they're in complete economic free fall.

> I didn't read the whole paper, but how can this even happen? Seems like the buffer overflow would be triggered for any file larger than 4 GiB

I skimmed the paper, and as far as I understood it:

Most cryptographic hash functions operate in fixed-size blocks (for instance, 32 bytes). Additionally, most cryptographic hash function implementations are designed to be streaming, that is, they do not receive the whole input at once. If you give them a partial input which is not a multiple of their block size, these implementations have to buffer the partial input, so that it can be combined with the next partial input (or flushed, if the next call is to finish the computation and generate the output). The arithmetic overflow which leads to the buffer overflow happens when computing how much it has to buffer, given a partial input and any previous partial input already in its internal buffer.

That is, having a file larger than 4GiB is not enough; it has to also be cut into pieces which are not a multiple of the block size (which is normally a power of two). Most users of a cryptographic hash function will either give it the input in large power-of-two pieces (for instance, 8 KiB or 64 KiB), or give it the input all at once, and thus will not hit the bug.
Most likely your DNS (which may be the ISP default) is bad at handling ipv6 queries, solvable by switching to Cloudflare DNS or something. If you care. Probably neither of us would bother.
I'm here wondering if they split the companies into two buckets (or the article is missing details). Companies with 45 millions + users and companies with less than 45 millions users.

So a company that has 22 million users will have the same regulatory burden as one that has 10? That's insanity.

The ridiculousness isn't that Google has changed their hiring process to reflect their current state, it's that other companies are copying what Google does now with the hope that it will allow them to replicate the success that Google had 20 years ago.

If your premise is "We look a lot like Google circa 2015, and I really like what they've done since then, how did they do it?" then it might make sense to replicate their hiring.

But if you want to achieve what Google achieved between 1998 (founding) and 2004 (IPO) then asking what they do now (or have done over the last 10 years) isn't particularly relevant.

Yeah, I often also do parties, where I cook for 20-ish people, and often have 3-4 dishwasher loads after a party. Speed does matter some.

Where it matters a lot more is that I live in an condo where officially I'm not supposed to run my dishwasher after 10:00 p.m. The difference between 1 or 3 hours is significant there for running it after dinner. (I basically only run it after 10:00 p.m. after parties; got a very quiet model for that reason.) Particularly since I have some stuff I'd like to have clean before the morning.

This is a pretty terrible example for the author's point.

I don't disagree that there are opportunities to introduce topology. I do disagree that there are opportunities to benefit from distributed consensus. If a server in ORD is down, it doesn't matter what some server in SJC says it's hosting; all the ORD instances of all the apps on that server are down. If that same ORD server is up, it doesn't matter what any server says it's running; it's authoritative for what it's running.

Of course, OSPF has topology and aggregation, too.

At any rate: I didn't design the system we're talking about.

Absolutely. But just because something is done in the style of a documentary doesn't make it a documentary. That was my only point. It seems to me that a lot of things being represented as "documentaries" are really opinion pieces.
> I'd only use it if it's absolutely necessary that your syntax highlighting exactly matches VS Code. (It's also a shame that VS Code requires Oniguruma)

This more important than you state. I have many JS syntax highlighters and most of them are garbage. Like, they don't even recognize some obvious keywords like `const`, `async` and `await` for Javascript. I'd rather chose something with better inbuilt grammar. I am not sure what the slowdown is like, but I don't imagine it'd be much. And with SSR, you can even offload it to a server and cache the generated HTML.
I really agree. All the latest rage is to upscale the older pre-digital animated tv and movies. While it should often be done, it always changes them enough to make it noticeably different than the original experience. A lot of people don't care, but it bothers the archivist in me.
A person can both be very good at something but also completely useless to the company as company priorities/needs change.

I'm frankly not sure why Twitter needs to own an entire design agency (presumably they've acquired all the staff) especially in 2021 when their design was already set in stone and hasn't changed significantly since then (so indeed, what has this guy been doing?).

Now, I'm not defending Musk here and especially not this childish reaction - he should be following the accepted protocol for making employees redundant instead of cutting them off and laughing at them publicly on social media.
> Taiwan's legal standing is not in question [1].

Amusingly, reference [1] that you point at is arguing that Taiwan is an independent country (the opposite to what you are saying):

ROC = Republic of China, ie, Taiwan. And the author is "Director of Press & Information Dept. of the Taipei Economic and Cultural Representative Office in Japan." (Taipei = Taiwan of course)

I ran a Discord community that had the privilege of being "permanently banned" from Discord for "distributing cheats" for a game, which was reversed when we explained that no, we actually distribute anticheat software, and discussed cheats quite heavily in order to ensure that the anticheat software was effective. While the ban was reversed after much campaigning and cajoling, Discord Trust & Safety informed us that the data was lost forever.

Unfortunately, we just couldn't back down from the demands to have a discord server, and thus, one was eventually recreated. But the point stands: if you're in a Discord server of sufficient size for something you care about, take note that it can go up in-smoke. If it's a software project, you owe it to yourself to at least have GitHub Discussions so that people aren't railroaded into Discord for everything.
