Funnily enough, spinning a cloud VM is quite easy actually. You can do it in seconds on Alibaba Cloud. Getting port 80 unblocked on the other hand...

Arguing that the relationship is inherently completely asymmetric isn't really true either. Chinese companies can't really just create a single website that serves both western and Chinese customers. While nothing legally is stopping them, doing this is just going give your western customers a bad time overall, since content delivery across the Chinese border is all but impossible at any reasonable speed. TikTok is an American company, fully owned by Bytedance yes, but they went through incorporating in America and complying with all local laws to do so.

How many Chinese made websites do you use? Unless you're a Chinese immigrant, TikTok is almost certainly the only one. You might use e-commerce websites like AliExpress, but, again, AliExpress is a specially made website that was designed to follow foreign regulation. Chinese companies don't generally operate in other countries. The only reason TikTok is so popular is because they bought their way into the western market with millions of dollars with the acquisition of musical.ly. You have not shown any empirical evidence of any Chinese tech company actually being successful in the west, that hasn't just bought out some American competitor.

Also, nothing is requiring you to setup servers in China to serve your Chinese audience, and in fact it's almost certainly much more expensive to do that, not just for an ICP license but for bandwidth as well. You can serve your Chinese audience well with servers in Japan, Korea, Hong Kong (for now), or other East Asian countries and as long as you follow Chinese laws, the GFW won't block you.

Sure, following Chinese laws is hard and goes against a lot of free speech principles, but at the end of the day the laws are enforced reasonably uniformly. Banning TikTok or Chinese companies in general just shows that Americans can't handle foreign competition. Instead I believe that a better solution would be to simply create uniformly enforced laws that create federal data processing regulation ... like Europe has already done with the GDPR ...
Yes, yes, and yes. I'm waiting for an actually open AI that can run on the edge, purely on commodity hardware like our laptops and phones - it's inevitable.

I imagine this "cat out of the bag" situation, the democratization and commodification of powerful technology accessible and affordable to the public, is similar to what's happening with single-board computers and microcontrollers like Raspberry Pi, Arduino, ESP32.

It might be similar to what happened with mobile phones, but there the power was quite restricted. The (mostly) duopoly of iOS and Android, with devices and apps locked down in various ways. Sure we can "jail break" and "root" our phone, but that's not for the general public.

Maybe solar energy production is going through a similar process, with panels and batteries becoming more efficient and affordable every year.

Certainly, it reminds one of the history of personal computers, the way such a powerful general-purpose tool became ubiquitous and local.
I agree, this is another indication that the app may say Apple but it’s really not developed inside Apple. Steve Jobs would have fired someone in 2023 if he saw a tiny screen on his gigantic iPad. If they’re okay with doing this then why isn’t there a phone-sized calculator available to install on iPad?
> The whole thing with the massive list of examples is to illustrate a general point on the lack of business regulation overall in the US. I literally stated it's the ratio of failures to successes that matters here. If I can produce 30 examples of the US failing to regulate and you produce one, that speaks to an overall generality that eclipses your example.

Your list produces nothing of the kind, as I tediously went out of my way to demonstrate.

Well, that's just your opinion, and it's an opinion that reflects more on your poor judgment than on me.

I guess if you could get a probe up to 0.1c (project orion), that's only 390 + 39 years to get direct images from within the solar system. But in 390 + 39 years, I assume imaging from our own solar system will have gotten significantly better making direct imaging possibly unnecessary.
Shooting down a spy balloon won't start a war. And similarly, sending a spy balloon over won't start a war either. Both sides (USA and China) are smarter than that.

The only thing that really has a chance to start a war is this Taiwan situation. I don't see any room for diplomacy anymore.
On the order of several million USD for the second gen system. Last I heard, they’re still at lowish volumes, selling some to national labs and the like.
I agree with this assessment. Early on I took these types of articles seriously but at this point I think they're writing what they want to see happen, not what is actually happening.

If people want Twitter to die (note it's 2023 and AOL is still around so it might take a while), something better has to come along.
Well yeah because this platform is focused on Western markets. TikTok is not available in China itself, there's a different version.

There's no point in hiding these things from western users because we already know about them. If they will block them it will only attract more attention (aka Streisand effect)
Great. Let’s copy and paste China’s rules on western social media apps and apply them to Chinese owned social media apps in the US.

I wonder how many people in the US will use TikTok if the rules require government censorship and data sharing.

I oppose banning TikTok. I oppose it even though I dislike the platform. I dislike its data collection. I dislike that the CCP likely can access the data. I dislike that it is a national security threat.

I would accept limited bans within specific contexts (e.g., people in sensitive positions with access to sensitive data).

At the same time, I crave reform to our privacy laws. We, the people, need better protection against data collection and use by both private and public entities.
(Author here.) I thought this was an interesting problem we ran into, especially in light of yesterday's "Kubernetes is hard" discussion https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35331887 .

It's a failure mode that's not exclusive to Kubernetes, but can happen in production anytime there's a self-monitoring/self-restarting feedback loop with potential for a backlog to build.

I'm pretty sure if you gave ChatGPT the old and new versions of the listing, it would have a 99%+ accuracy when answering the question, "are these for the same product?" So they could just run each change through something like that, and wouldn't have to write any custom heuristics.
So are they counting fentanyl deaths ("hey somebody put drugs in my drugs") as a drug overdose, or as an accidental poisoning?
No, it really is. Hang out at a Stanford or MIT career fair.

Show HN: String Randomness Score Generator
A lightweight, 0 dependency package to generate a randomness score for a string. Used to identify if a string is gibberish or word-like. Some applications include -

- Identify if a user is typing something or just banging the keyboard
- Determine if a string is an API Key, Access Token, etc
- Check if a string is something randomly generated by a computer
- Validation to ensure that a string is gibberish and not wordlike
How expensive would it be to perform an airport-style x-ray scan of every box (over some price) before it's shipped out, and when it's returned? That would give the customer support agent something to look at when judging somebody's claim that they were shipped a fake product, and you could probably even train ML models to distinguish genuine from knockoff goods in many cases.
> side effects are just about in every React component where you use a hook.

I would expect most of your side effects to happen as a result of user interaction, i.e. in an event handler. Data fetching would probably be at the top of the tree. What side effects are you including in every component?

> a problem with React learnability itself, or with its documentation, or well, with the programmers themselves

All three!

- Most programmers dont learn FP before adopting React, which means they aren't going have a more difficult time working with React's functionalish model.

- Lots of blog posts, tutorials and even docs of popular libraries feature poorly written React code. It's just reality. Lots of people use this library, and there's no barrier to entry to write a tutorial post. IMO, the new React docs are a step in the right direction and should be a primary learning material for most.

So do I (French). But I realize that we are not really powerful for a country like the US. Even as the EU.

That's because it is and the posts keep shifting.

AGI used to mean artificial and generally intelligent ( which we have passed), then it meant on par with human experts and now it seems to mean better than all experts combined. At this point why not stop the farce and replace the G in there with Godlike.
I have mild to moderate ADHD, and in the long run, I haven’t found any tools that try and “get in my way” to block distraction to be that helpful. No tool can save me from myself, and they usually end up interfering with my “productivity” in the process. For example, with this tool, what happens when I need to use a browser extension, or look up something from a random website, or research something on HN or Reddit? What happens if I need to use the terminal, or message my partner? And then aside from all that, how does it protect me from just turning to something else (phone) to feed my need for distraction?

So while things like this can have some benefit, no productivity tool can come close to touching the things that have really helped me: therapy, meditation, psychedelics, self-compassion, medication, and some books that helped me see “productivity” through a new lens and recognize the pathological relationship with myself that it was keeping me trapped in.

Books I recommend:

1. Four Thousand Weeks by Burkeman

2. Self Compassion by Neff

3. The Now Habit by Fiore

If you can only read one, read 4000 Weeks. Game changer.
Well, do be aware... I don't think that Best Buy _technically_ pays commissions based on sales, but they do often have reps from brands around who will try to sell you heavily on their product (e.g. Samsung reps.)

I've also heard stories that while you won't get a commission, you may get more perks at work for higher sales numbers.

In any case, your experience at Apple sounds insane.
Who's claiming that those are 100% secure? They're among the most secure OS's available because they're attacked incessantly by sophisticated actors.

I suspect the idea was to discourage instead of entrap/punish. I guess I'm also curious about the rationale, was it a strategic decision, a humane one, or a legal one? All of the above?

Maybe as simple as the action being illegal and since they are not providing the advertised service then no crime is committed? I don't know how broadly applicable this is but in at least one state the local drinking laws boil down to 'you will not serve minors', perhaps something similar here.
I had to search for "focus mode" to learn what you were referring to, so forgive me if my understanding is incorrect. Isn't that a Win 11 thing? It looks like a kind of do-not-disturb mode?

How does that intersect with browser push notifications? Another advantage of email notifications is that the email notifications won't go away if I don't pay attention to them for a long while.

In any case, I don't use Windows except at work, where this wouldn't be an issue anyway.

Oh yeah, they do that all the time. I have dual citizenship and they’ve asked me a few times upon leaving the UK where I was staying, who I was with, what those people’s professions were, etc. I think it’s just random spot-checks to see if you look nervous. But if you get annoyed with them and tell them you’re a citizen they stop.
The entire strategization plan of Reddit as a product seems to be a box of hot shit right now. While the new UI in my POV seems to be shitty and slow, they also crammed in many shady practices like "this content is only available on the Reddit app", "this content loads better/faster on the Reddit app", "Open this page in: Reddit App, Chrome (magically assume all browsers are Chrome and that the users are foolish to not notice lol)", and... there are buttons everywhere that keep nagging "Use Reddit App".

Fuck your app Reddit, I am never gonna install your app just because you nag so much. I will use Relay for Reddit instead.

Carbon fiber?

As I understand it, reducing unsprung weight (which is not very much for a bicycle with no suspension beyond the tires) can have an outsized effect, but actually reducing weight mostly matters for ascending. For non-competitive cycling, other factors seem like they should be much more significant.

A big one, which is banned in most competitive formats, is a fairing. This is much more effective than having a human hunker down and try to be aerodynamic. Even for an upright cargo bike (which is generally extremely heavy), a fairing in front can make a dramatic difference on level ground with no wind.
Okay, I guess.

This seems to have about a half a hundred solutions

- Changing listing voids prior reviews

- Changing product category voids prior reviews

- Enable transferring reviews by a paying a fee which will pay for a human reviewer to approve this

- Make people put up a bond to sell goods and or agree to a huge fine if they do this. When you find people doing this take their bond and or fine money out of the money they would have received for their goods. Also delete all their listings and ban them from the platform. If any account attempts to do business in a way obviously linked same card same email etc ban them too.

- Find mismatches between reviews and product by having a program classify reviews by probable product type reviewed and have a human review hits starting with the most prolific offenders and bring down the ban hammer. If you can actually collect fines directly out of money intended for the scammer this trivially pays for the enforcement activity and improves the health of the platform.

If the economics of the scam are I'll make a little money to if I do this at a large enough scale to make any real money I'll probably be caught and lose money it doesn't look like an attractive scam to run anymore. It's not necessary to be perfect just good enough to mostly resolve the issue.

> Also, Labor laws in India are non-existant where you can work your employee to death.

I feel like this is my current work experience in the US. I frequently work 65 hour weeks and overnight shifts while also having to work all day the next day. There are no laws protecting me from this and I don't get paid overtime for any of it. I've worked the equivalent of 12 extra weeks of full-time work in the past year with no extra pay or time off to compensate.

> They should charge enough to be able to afford to treat their employees like human beings - and human being sometimes get sick. How is hard for you to understand?

so you would agree that (at their current $6-8 drink average), they are NOT charging enough to support their employees like human beings (being able to factor in that any barista should be allowed the right to call in sick 5 days with no notice a quarter)

Is that a fair summary?

How many days are they currently factoring in? 0, right? Because all baristas need to fear getting fired over take 1 sick day a quarter (call out unpaid with no notice) or need somebody to cover it right

So, how much do drink and food prices need to go up at starbucks to support 5 sick days per quarter per barista instead of the current 0?

Their current margins are 75%. Do they need margins to go to... 85%? 95%? 105%? 115%? What's the cost of a barista taking a sick day once a quarter? What's the cost to a store's bottom line per day of 5 baristas taking a sick day 5 times a quarter? What if they do it all at once? Close the store for the day, miss the revenue/sales?
I've seen a few of them in the city. The seem great, but I wonder how well they steer. They're low to the ground and seem less visible (I've seen them with flags).
