Not really ?

I don't see what prevents the app from pushing a decoded copy of the conversation ?

Even a variant of Skype was caught doing such (we only know about it because they left the server which had the raw logs completely open).

And still, Skype is very secure/encrypted/blablabla; which is true, but within the borders of local regulations.

The end comment/advice from the US part is even a bit funny:
"travelers should assume that all communications are monitored."
No, because they don't correlate with violent crime rates, which are also tracked. Murder is actually a really weird crime: if basically never happens between people who don't know each other.
Just curious to hear from other engineers, do those constant product shutdowns impact the way you evaluate Google technologies when considering developing new products? I don't expect Go, Android, Tensorflow to disappear or lose their Google backing any time soon, but I've personally felt uncomfortable using Angular, Flutter (and Dart), and services on GCP to build anything serious.
If you don't buy ddos protect from one of the cartel members one of them will ddos you. Protection racket.
We're super excited about the funding. It's letting us bring on some of the core team full time for the summer and part time for the year.

Our goal with Dioxus is to eat Electron, React Native, Flutter, Phoenix, Gatsby, and NextJS with one stack.
That's also from 2019. It's possible the OP looked at more recent information? Without knowing their source we won't know.
Unless you're participating in the investigation, you don't have any ampliative knowledge to contribute.

This begs the question: what do you think the comment feature is for, exactly? Why are you even reading and responding to other comments?
I'll definitely give it a whirl sometime. And I appreciate the detailed field report.

It's just that, if someone gave me 3 hours, and asked me to come back with constructive, actionable progress toward creating a simulator for X (where X is sufficiently rich and complex, like baseball) -- I wouldn't mess around with skeleton code at all.

Instead I'd try my best to come up with a statement of what the simulator should do, and why.
Quick question; since you use AWS under the hood, is there any way to “bring your own aws account” for any of these things? (Example use cases: relevant if I want to use sns alongside your storage solutions, or if I have aws credits I want to use)

That leaves 50% in the unknown category. Who knows whether those other 50% have the same distribution as the knowns? It's also possible that most of the unknowns are stranger murders since the offender might be harder to identify in those cases.

So, the ratio is somewhere between 10% stranger to 90% family and acquaintance and 60% stranger to 40% family and acquaintance.
I know your question was rethorical but I'm counting 7 chat / messaging platforms :

Hangouts (2013): A messaging platform that integrated with Google+ and Gmail, offering text, voice, and video communication.

Google Messages (formerly Android Messages, 2014): An SMS, MMS, and RCS messaging application for Android devices.

Google Spaces (2016): A group messaging app that allowed users to create "spaces" for sharing links, images, and other content.

Allo (2016): A messaging app featuring AI-powered smart replies, stickers, and end-to-end encryption.

Duo (2016): A video calling app designed for one-on-one video communication on mobile devices.

Google Meet (2017): A video conferencing service that supports text chat within the meeting interface, mainly targeted at businesses and organizations.

Google Chat (formerly Hangouts Chat, 2018): A team messaging platform integrated with Google Workspace, designed for businesses and organizations.

Bonus : Google Voice had messaging capabilities, YouTube could also go in there, but that's a stretch.
> are there forums with better user moderation systems that boost ranking of quality comments and decrease ranking of comment noise? Something where I can systematically increase the ranking of comments of users I respect (or I transitively respect), and decrease the ranking of comments for users that I see write crap

It seems like you want a personalized filter bubble to confirm your pre-existing views and hide comments from anyone who even votes the same way as someone who contradicts your views. This is generally considered an anti-feature in public discussions, especially on HN. Calling all posts that you disagree with "crap" and ignoring them does a disservice to the conversation and to yourself.

The actual "crap" does get filtered out pretty well: the spam, slurs, trolling, low-effort jokes, and other things that derail the conversation. What you are calling "crap" are people's genuinely-held beliefs, some more coherently expressed than others, but which resonated with many others here. It is much better to engage than to ignore. I see that you didn't comment in that thread, which is a shame. Substantive disagreements are what move us all forward.

You might want to try Facebook, they do a really good job at keeping you in your preferred group's information cocoon.
RIP crazybob. And condolences to his family.
Because the dataset is incomplete if even a single city doesn't opt into sharing data, or only provides a portion of the real data.

From the FBI itself:

> Pitfalls of Ranking

> UCR data are sometimes used to compile rankings of individual jurisdictions and institutions of
higher learning. These incomplete analyses have often created misleading perceptions which
adversely affect geographic entities and their residents. For this reason, the FBI has a long-­‐
standing policy against ranking participating law enforcement agencies on the basis of crime
data alone. Despite repeated warnings against these practices, some data users continue to
challenge and misunderstand this position.

Nothing works if you don't try. At least then there would be formal documentation from an independent party.
We're good
Hi, Supabase Auth Engineer here. Thanks for pointing this out, we'll update our blogpost to reflect this.
Thanks for this, I haven't flown in 14 years and was looking to get back into it. This is perfect for a refresher.
The problem with saying that SF has relatively low violent crime is that it ignores the constant, extremely aggressive verbal assault that people are just accustomed to. In the years I lived there, I had people scream at me that they were going to kill/stab/etc. me at least a couple of dozen times (I would describe this as violent crime). Of course, if you call SFPD, they'll just tell you it's not an issue and ignore you, so those don't go into any statistics.
Not really, it's more geared towards having substantial discussions, not whatever fantasy comes out of our minds.
Apple did not communicate to users they were slowing down the phone to prevent issues. They did it silently so users would upgrade rather than replace the battery.

> apple offered replacement batteries almost at cost.

Only after they were caught slowing down phones without informing users.
Here's[1] the quoted statement. But given that this was brought up in relation to Esptein case, there's[2] also a fragment about "mischaracterised" media coverage from the same day:

> I want to respond to the misleading media coverage of messages I posted about Marvin Minsky's association with Jeffrey Epstein. The coverage totally mischaracterised my statements.

> Headlines say that I defended Epstein. Nothing could be further from the truth. I've called him a "serial rapist", and said he deserved to be imprisoned. But many people now believe I defended him — and other inaccurate claims — and feel a real hurt because of what they believe I said.

> I'm sorry for that hurt. I wish I could have prevented the misunderstanding.

There have been attempts to go that route from both the hardware (eg Nvidia NV1, 1995) and software side (eg Quake 3 Area, 1999) and many attempts to render curved surfaces since. Generally triangles have remained dominant because they are easier to model, easier to manipulate and are rendered extremely optimally on hardware.

The approximation to polygons when rendering is a non trivial task. Individual curved patches can be easily approximated to triangles but once you connect those patches together you have to ensure that the tessellated triangle edges match between neighboring patches. For the most part it is just easier and more performant to model with triangles and brute-force render them. One day curved surfaces may be a better choice but currently triangles are dominant.
Activation locks are all server-side; they control if these expire or are enabled -- so they already have a backdoor inside every device, essentially.
I was going to comment on another post, about the validity of CS style leetcode puzzles in interviews, and that Goole seems to have been at the forefront of this trend: Not only do they not necessarily predict competence at solving real-world problems, they possibly select for people who treat complex real-world problems as a CS exercise, and just look at the result for Google - numerous projects that try to solve the wrong problem, others that solve it in a way that doesn't align with the audience, etc. The algorithms are probably efficient though.
Using one of the standard authenticator apps would be much better, and at least as feasible as SMS.
It has been, it was in the Microsoft research paper "Sparks of AGI". You can watch the lead author of the paper, Sebastien Bubeck, present it here: https://youtu.be/qbIk7-JPB2c

It's a good video for understanding GPT-4 as a "What are we sure that LLMs are technically capable of?" exercise. As he notes in the video right at the start, the model was made safe and thus has significantly lower performance in the public release, so the examples he shows aren't replicable in the different model the public has access to.
Doesn't 0 temp give you determnistic outputs tho?

Also you need to translate/expand once (or multiple times, add tests, pick best benchmarked solution)

Where this could be useful would be in handling updates of packages and API's by itself. if you integrate only by prompt/words the AI can generate the appropiate latest lib integration that happens to work with your system or whatever
The last strace output (where the author mentions logging) made me think: are there any logging frameworks that’s use io_uring? Seems like a potentially good way to lower logging overhead without adding a lot of buffering to the logging framework.
The only thing I'm "championing" (just pointing out, really) is that certain populations seem to enjoy using anecdotal tragedy to promote their own quasi-apocalyptic worldview re: some American cities, despite all available data contradicting that worldview.

I'm sure everyone here appreciates the update on your locale, and your own stories of property crime and/or non-criminal (yet perhaps unnerving?) personal interactions. Alas, none of that appears to be relevant to either the submitted story, or homicide or any other violent crime.
I grew up in St Louis. We didn't worry so much about murder for cause as someone had to specifically dislike you (cheating on/with spouse for example). We just watched the street crime rates.

That said moving to the west coast people freak out all the time about yearly murder rates that are a weekend in STL.
As riders go, I've seen far worse.

I went to Portland for a week last year. I saw 6 different instances of a violent, obviously mentally ill, presumably homeless person physically attack a random person (once at a restaurant, twice at a tram station, thrice on the street, all broad daylight). That was more instances that I had seen in 5 years in Philadelphia, a city jokingly referred to as Killadelphia.

Portland might not have a lot of gang violence (which is what really gets numbers up), but not violent isn't how I would describe the city.
Request Tracing in Node.js
Garry Tan used this murder to flog his political action committee on Twitter. Absolutely disgusting.
Seems likely to be optimised by the compiler, not sure though.
My bad. I misremembered.
Why is this downvoted? Are the numbers bad?

This is suprising to me as non-American because Detroit reads to me "like gang-infested murdercity" and I would have expected San Francisco to do significantly better in crime numbers...

Are the numbers misleading or IS criminality in San Francisco comparable to Detroit?
do people that work in tech commit murder and violent crime at higher rates than the general population?
I find the iOS app BeOrg great for mobile access to my org mode inbox. It works well as not only a place to write quick notes but also to, say, "share to" links from Safari and other apps to create inbox entries as well to quickly capture URLs to view later.
The guy is a hologram of a 1960s hippie, with almost no meaningful stuff to say about the current world. He should probably be writing philosophical books in his own solitude, instead of expressing opinions about stuff he is detached from.
I'm with you on this. They're misrepresenting themselves in a way that even may encourage others to make similar moves.

The real problem with secret economic motivations is when they either prevent or undermine meaningful effort. But Apple is enacting meaningful effort here. It's good.
Would you mind including some better reference datasets, then?
I mean the shutdown.

Obviously it was not a well launched product, but that's what you get when you hire Phil Harrison.
Exactly, without Zuck opening the protocol and sanctioning the use of open-source clients it is not meaningful.
extralegal
thats like almost a perfect ChatGPT prompt lol
I'm not sure what's preferable: your described mystery of a story, or the stereotypical "20 minutes of backstory and how we know their family" before getting to the meat of it.
Open source is of very limited usefulness in terms of ensuring security. Unless you're building the client from the source, you have no assurance that the binary you're using corresponds exactly with the source.
The piss on the homeless views always get aired whenever a homeless person does something bad, or is accused, without evidence of doing something bad.

It's couched in 'the woke are ruining everything letting murderhobos run rampart' rhetoric. Sometimes with a helping of 'the police are completely unable to function if we subject them to any oversight, or hold them accountable to the rule of law.'

You see this take very frequently on <your local city subreddit>.
> Ignoring local decisions for the greater good is very hard in germany.

So how come they're destroying entire villages to mine more coal? Coal, which is far more polluting than nuclear power?

I'm not a fan of nuclear power either, but the German addiction to coal is incomprehensible.
So, "gangsters and other career criminals" stick to marijuana possession? That doesn't sound like a bad deal...
The verb can mean either you get rubbed off - or just hit really heard.
Let's reverse the question; do you see anything that explicitly grants them permission to feed emails into an LLM?
Read it again. The core of the indictment is for conspiracy and incitement. If Assange had merely received unsolicited classified information and published it then he wouldn't have been indicted.
>I find it remarkable that you wrote all this out and didn't once think that this is remarkably selfish, self serving, and narcissistic. Most people would condemn this type of behavior, but you're trying to elevate it into something greater than what it is. Stop proselytizing.

I don't think so at all, because it's not in service of the self, it's service of their partner. Maybe you are projecting.

>I think that there's a time and place for things. If you're in a space to write music with your band then you defer to what is good for the band. If I'm visiting their home, that's a completely different story and I defer to what they want, because that's their space.

But a band member invited her in. You keep inserting your own version of a hypothetical that totally runs against what actually happened.

>Yoko has done this a lot throughout her career. She's injected herself in places that she clearly wasn't welcome and made it about her. Perhaps she is making an artistic statement but it hardly matters, because in doing so she's disrupting everyone else who in some cases often are trying to make their own art.

She didn't inject herself. John literally told her he needed her there, I'm not sure what is so difficult for you to understand about this. Seems like you don't even understand the concept of an invitation, which makes total sense to me given your behavior here.
Sorry, that goes as paid work on my book. I'm sure you understand.
This is absurd and patronizing.
Goddard Space Flight Center's new boss swears in on holy Pale Blue Dot
From the article.

>The company now expects its full-year adjusted operating profit for the 2024 fiscal year to be around low-20 million, or $25 million, half of its previous unadjusted estimates of 40.1 million, according to Refinitv data seen by Insider.

>"The challenge at the moment is that there simply isn't quite the demand there to be where we want to be, which is disappointing," Clive Vacher, the CEO of De La Rue, told Reuters on Wednesday.

It's still profitable, just not as profitable as it used to be.
Twitter and hate speech: What's the evidence?
Someone saying that the have a gun and are going to shoot you is very clearly assault, which is a criminal act. It would generally quality as a violent crime in statistics (if SFPD took reports of threats of violence, which they will not).

While we should use data, we should also understand where there may be issues with the data that we're using.
First reading the headline I actually assumed this product was some Amazon attempt at high end GPU/compute cards akin to Nvidia Titan models.
For MANY companies, the AWS solutions are automatically approved and only require putting on the IT backlog. Any other vendor or cloud could easily take a year or more to bring online and would require an excruciating amount of scrutiny for every integration that you wanted to turn on. AWS often doesn't even require any budget review/approval.

AWS has done a great job selling itself as the trustable, secure and one-stop shop to IT.
oh no, I hate crossing registrar and other providers, even using (say) godaddy for DNS and registrar weirds me out; too many chances something goes horribly wrong (and then you can't transfer the domain).
"Reasonable proof of legitimate ownership" translates to "record of first-sale purchase directly from Apple" only, from every example I have seen.

They have steadfastly refused to differentiate between the concepts of abandoned/donated devices vs. stolen ones -- very convenient for them, as it drives more sales of new devices and increasingly hamstrings the used market.
Won't they just spend it on video games/electronics related things?
Remember when they tried to force everyone to accept the new terms or they would disable access after a certain date? Then they walked it back after people started using alternative platforms.

Middle income is $10-$20 per day[1]. $2k per week = $400 per day = 20x - 40x middle income. Minus taxes. And I guess you need to factor in that the figure includes people who are not employed. But still should leave you in the ~10x group.

What I'd love to see with this is a way to use supabase auth itself as an idP/SAMP provider. Have your tools (back-office tools and what not) written in native supabase, or have multiple supabase projects with the one shared auth system. Could be better UX for Sysadmins than OpenLDAP and so forth.

I'm currently building something similar to just do that on top of supabase for work. Happy to see the developments with Supabase Auth anyway.
It's all relative. The safest parts of the U.S. still feel like too much for me. And I'm sure where I grew up in Canada would seem like a post-apocalyptic hellscape to some others around the world.
This is a civil rights-era tactic that was widely used in the south. When facing mandatory integration for public resources like schools, parks, swimming pools, tennis courts, frequently local governments would just shut them down instead.

In some cases they could sell them to private entities cheaply who could skirt the requirement by making them "members only" and simply only having white members. The south is still dotted with country clubs that are almost or completely white-only and that have their origins in that period.

It was an effective tactic! The strategic goals are different here but I can see why they'd reach for it again.
Ah, a little light carrotsnack, after which the beatings can continue until working moral improves.
A society so hostile, that people withdraw from it completely is surely able to change the situation, without any changes to itself.

I think the best idea would be hikikomori villages. As in standalone towns, were the rest of society is forbidden to enter. Allow them to start something fresh, untainted by the old horror.
You are mistaken to think Stallman is primarily a software person. He is a leader of a social movement, with social goals (freedom from the shackles of proprietary software) achieved by strategic investment in software development and legal battles over the decades. From this lens, it is quite his lane.
Just like financial crashes
You're right, "violent crime" is a term of art that involves the commission of a…crime. "Verbal assault" is not assault. I guess if you don't like the vibes in a place, you can go somewhere else, but trying to use such things to influence how people talk about or perceive actual, no, for real crime is intellectual malpractice.
Or Erlang... oh wait, that would actually work. We don't want that.
Big caveat which I forgot to mention: As it comes from the factory it’s a bit compromised!

There are reasons why the bike taught me to swap and tune carbs and rework the suspension!! heh!!!

It’s still a lot of fun to ride, and in bigger bike markets you’ll be able to find a bike that already has the stops taken out!
Could that not be that you need to report/record a crime for insurance purposes?

There might be a good reason people would report some crimes over others for reasons over and above simply for the sake of reporting them/having them solved.
