The Thai government's Ministry of Digital Economy & Society has made multiple public requests for iOS users[1], mentioning that they need to avoid specific iOS apps[1][2], as well. That means scam apps were being distributed via the App Store.

Also, the government mentions that the scams affect users of both platforms, because the scams propagate via calls, web links and emails that ask for personal information[2].

I remember using and hating DOS. I swore never to go back once it disappeared around 1998. Using terminal is going back, so I don't use terminal.

No idea what "running yarn" means, and I don't intend finding out. I'm too busying with actual web development! :-)
They will probably put all the side loaded apps in the same sandbox. Yikes ...
Sideloading should be mandatory and opt-in. Arguing that it should be closed is basically people wanting to control other people's computers (even though that is a popular opinion in this "hacker" forum).

It's going to be interesting when some sideloaded app starts becoming popular and e.g. americans miss out on it. I can already imagine a lot of AI and nsfw stuff in that category
How is this system different to contactless payments all over Europe which have no such problem and have been widely used for years?

Also your comparison of people 'working on their own cars' is a bit off here. Most people buy cars to drive, and give the car to the mechanic to 'work on'. It's much much harder to repair your own car than to click a link that can scam you.
Right, my advice to implants here in Norway is to enroll into communal language courses. It's endemic among the tech folk to assume they'll ace it by osmosis. Years later all they can do is to smile at social functions.
it should? natural selection progresses through the reproducers that survive. the ones that could attack on their right side for right side attack survived?
I don’t think users really want to have to use 5 different app stores. I’ll probably opt to not buy an app if I first have to download another App Store app.
Given sunshine in Cuba it might not be necessary to finish. The for-profit grid feeding giant solar power station in Rajasthan, India is buying power at a rate under 3 cents per kWh, and the private capital that put up the money to build it still has an ROI that pencils out. A hundred million dollars of ground mount photovoltaics in Cuba might do a lot more good than spending money to finish a possibly obsolete design nuclear reactor.
It'd be great to explain what exactly you mean by that statement. SpaceX upper management and Elon are on great relations.
Not only do you have to own a mac, you have to keep everything updated to the latest version. This is problematic, considering that the OS gets worse and worse with every release, and some things break with new versions.
> I don't have much choice - it's not like there would be five competing apps serving the same purpose (connecting to the people and communities on Facebook).

The same legislation that is requiring Apple to allow sideloading also requires other large players (like Meta) to open their communication platforms up to other service or application developers.

In this hypothetical case, there actually would be five competing apps, some even still distributed on the App Store.
Interesting conversation. I recall '5 phase' suddenly being all the fashion because it allowed for better control in hardware at a very high expense and then two seasons later 5 phase had simply disappeared because the increased degree in control meant that the intractable problems of two phase resonance could be solved in software (effectively those drivers made it possible to draw energy out of the motor while speeding it up past those resonance points). The cost for a motor, wiring and controller dropped to a fraction of what it was before. Berger Lahr must have been seriously pissed, finally they had those resonance problems licked and then the software revolution simply overtook them.
I hate that baks require the phone app, where transactions don’t also require a computer: It enables racket where my aggressor can list my bank accounts; It also reduces the 2FA to 1FA (phone-only transactions with password + fingerprint + SMS only on the phone).
An anecdote: I never used Twitter but this year I created an account to “vote” for Elon. He isn’t a saint for sure but I believe our world needs him.

Feel free to downvote if I “upset” you.
> I don't write much of bash or fish, I mean scripts written by others. Encounter cryptic error messages then realize script is just assuming shell is POSIX

I run most of my scripts in Bash, but what I can, I convert to Fish. If the advantages of Fish are less important than POSIX compliance, I won't suggest anything, because I have no need to be POSIX compliant, so maybe I don't really have the same concerns. :)

> Starship plenty fast for me. You say it's completely different than OMF but from what I see they both exist to customize your prompt, no?

Forgive me, I mistakenly assumed you meant that Starship runs too slowly. It depends on how you define prompt. Strictly it will be whatever is shown in the terminal when it waits for user input. OMF is a multi-tool that, in addition to modifying the appearance, acts as something like a plugin manager. Starship gives you "just the look". I think a good analogy would be to compare systemd and runit in 1 category.
> The user would have to submit some sort of a government issued ID to verify that they are who they claim to be.

I don’t trust Twitter with my government ID.
In some areas like this one, control is just an illusion.

You can certainly do things to reduce and risk manage the downsides, but you can only ever do so against scenarios you have dreamt up and spent time confirm and validating that your solution works. Its an endless amount of work that isn't sustainable.

The only way to ensure the data collected can't be used against you now or in the future, (i.e. isn't stolen in some way), is to not collect it in the first place.
That's usually when I get really depressed :(
Right, but for Apple to take down those apps, it's much easier than taking down some random link the fraudsters put up.

I'm not saying iOS is 100% bullet proof. I'm saying the problem is much more manageable without sideloading.
a lot of opinions yet twitter is ... fine for me? It's a little faster but other than that it has been the same dumb RSS replacement as before. I agree that long tweets are a bad idea and i tend to skip those. It's also fine if they want to charge people for verifying their identity and remove impersonators, after all a lot of banks do that.

>You pay a certain amount of money, for say, 10,000 followers and expand your network. You didn’t have to post good content or had to wait for a few years. You solved both the problems by throwing money at the problem.

>With this expanded network, you apply to Twitter to verify your profile and Twitter obliges and marks your profile as verified and gives you the verified checkmark. Being a verified user, the possibilities are now endless

This whole blog is just based in a fictional world unconnected to reality

Having a blue check mark didn't give anybody anything except pride and letting people know it was the person with the name. It didn't bring you followers or fame. Having a bunch of bot followers isn't going to get you verified either.
How is a group of chronically upset internet losers news nowadays? Jesus. According to the stats in the article, a whopping 0.005479178% of the site at most have blocked people on Twitter. Big whoop.
Thanks for the sources, as said this shows the article is highly suspect if your "maximum theoretical energy density" figure already is beaten by in-the-market devices.
My kid goes to a small school and they buy new chromebooks every couple years. Most of them don't make it to that two year mark. I offered to fix some of the broken units for them for free since they don't really have an IT department, but I couldn't get 90% of the parts I needed. The parts I could find weren't justifiable over just buying a whole new chromebook. I guess people will tolerate planned obsolescence as long as the item is not too expensive to replace, but it feels like a huge waste.
I wasn't overly excited about my child having a google account either, but at least I got them to let me make a throwaway dummy account for him to use instead of his actual information.
Your mum would be tech-savvy enough to enable "allow ipa from untrusted sources" buried deep in the settings? That's how it works on Android. I believe the main problem with android is, that there are tons of old devices not receiving any security updates.

It's close to impossible, that my mum figures out how to install an untrusted apk on her Samsung s22.

I guess what I want to say is: Having good security should not prevent you from installing custom software if you want to.
No one said anything about repairs - people are currently free to buy and fit their own wipers from 3rd parties because we have specific legislation that says manufacturers can't forbid 3rd parties from making spare parts. I don't see why the same shouldn't apply here.

>>You should read this article[0]. It outlines clearly that victims are downloading .apk files

I feel for the victims but I literally don't see how that's an argument against sideloading.

Meta can currently gate WhatsApp behind logging in with a Facebook account, but they don't; it will alienate users who use it because it doesn't require a Facebook account
I use Starship for the same reason. It's great getting the same UX in Fish on macOS and PowerShell on Windows.
I see the word 'distributed' being thrown around way too much in TFA without any justification as to why apps should be so distributed in the first place.
Why do you think so? As European I don't understand why you think that it is stupid, but also coming from a place that has interest in keeping that kind of law active (I am from Napoli, Italy), I see the usefulness of avoiding companies not being based in Emilia doing a cheese that is called Parmigiano, or not based in Naples doing Bufala, or Pachino..

Consider that each naming is often backed by a consortium, not a single company, and represent the whole process from selection of ingredients to the manufacturing, as a consumer I kinda know what to expect based on the naming

I can only see positively that not anyone from China or US can just export something and claim to be something else and probably make a Parmigiano with rat poison
> It would be actually trivial for a bank to only allow transactions from their apps

Twitter was and is such an absolute cesspit of humanity though. Its only (arguable) use was that celebrities were forced to hear people call them shit to their faces. At least until the option to filter out people who didn't have checkmarks was added

Elon meanwhile is so criminally addicted to fucking attention that he didn't realize buying the site would immediately turn it into the worlds biggest magnifying glass aiming that burning star of hatred directly on him

If twitter bankrupts or ousts him as CEO of the other companies he helms it'll be the "redemption arc" of that awful platform
Linking is a conceptual requirement, not a format feature. It is a more complex requirement so it naturally needs more complex semantics to implement. So far so unavoidable.

A good design would allow progressively adding semantic complexity iff needed. I think the popularity of json was just because xml violated this very simple design aspect.

Unfortunately it is true that linking, metadata, ontologies and all that stuff are required as the ambition of information exchange increases. People who deny that obviously have never worked on any domain that requires significant data exchanges between many independent actors.

So now we are stuck with two sub-optimal solutions: a simple but incomplete json approach that must reinvent the wheel without destroying its good bits and a complex and hard to use xml approach that is only loved by software bureaucrats...
App Privacy Report lets you know if an app might have leaked your data, firewall can help you make sure it does not happen. Two different purposes.
The title misses out the "highway" and (misleading) "real world" qualifiers.

Basically complaining that the real world benefits of regenerative braking are included, which their test (intentionally?) avoids.
So now:

- Elon is running around handing out free blue checkmarks to people he's afraid if losing on the platform (pretending he's doing it as a joke). And this resulted in predictable backlash from those people

- Removal of legacy verification also removed verification from news agencies, alongside with "state-sponsored" labels. Russian propagandists have already thanked Elon for that

It's all fine
If I were a twitter user, this might be even the reason to get paid checmark. Just imagine all the insufferable people filtering you themselves. Must drastically improve the user experience of anyone who has the checkmark.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sneetches_and_Other_Storie...

The story is cantered around the Sneetches, a group of yellow bird-like creatures. Some Sneetches have a star on their belly, thus making them special. The Sneetches without a star are discriminated against. Sylvester McMonkey McBean is a greedy entrepreneur who convinces the Sneetches without the stars to get a star tattoos if they pay him money. This makes the star Sneetches jealous and they pay him to have their star removed so they remain special. At the end, the Sneetches all remain penniless and McBean walks away a wealthy man.

I tried Fish for a while, and found the three things I liked most about it were all available as addons for zsh, so I went back to zsh with just these three lines appended to .zshrc:

source /usr/share/zsh-autosuggestions/zsh-autosuggestions.zsh
source /usr/share/zsh-abbr/zsh-abbr.zsh

sideloading != clicking a dodgy link

clicking a dodgy link can download an android installer file (.apk), but installing .apks from unknown sources has to be explicitly enabled in android security settings (twice in latest versions) following warnings about trusting the link source and possible damage

it's not as simple as downloading a dodgy .exe in Windows and clicking 'yes' on the UAC prompt

whereas sideloading is intended for developers when testing and debugging apps. this involves enabling Developer Mode in android security settings, connecting to your phone via USB, and issuing sideload commands from a console

Other than those with dysgraphia obvious disabilities, who are you thinking of primarily?
What do you mean how? The app has a secure token only the app has, any traffic without that token is invalid. IOS already sandboxes all apps so the token would be impossible to extract. This is basic app security, I can't believe this is even discussed
The US still invests heavily in defense, which props up STEM. I agree it was nicer when the goal was space though.
Ask HN: Benefit of Compiler Knowledge?
Why do I often see the importance of knowing the inner workings of compilers emphasized among senior devs when it seems like one of those things that are reasonable to abstract away as a black box for the majority of software engineers since they're not directly involved in their development?

General question, since I never before read up on why to use Argon:

Why can't programs like Hashcat treat virtual memory (which is just disk space) as "on board memory", and then get 1000 attempts out of each TB?

I would think the calculations themselves are relatively minor, if you are using that amount of RAM.

I might disagree. Though I am very introverted I experienced how much Chinese I could learn and have as actively known vocabulary in just 3 weeks being in China travelling. Simply because I needed it. And I did have to force myself to speak in some situations to immerse myself. You could for example go into a modern shop and buy food silently, or you could get something great from a streetfood vendor, asking prices, understanding answers, telling them what you want to buy, possibly negotiating the price a little.
Or you could walk around for an hour trying to find a place, or ask a local and get there in a few minutes.

I'm simply presenting a case in my own country. Where I've seen the negative effects of sideloading playing out. People's livelihoods are being destroyed.

I do understand that sideloading is something desirable for some percentage of people.

Point is every thing has pros / cons. Sideloading is like buying a car and upgrading it with NOS. Yeah it's wonderful. Your going to have a very powerful car. But the risks also increase. Most people don't need NOS in their car.

I'm speaking for most people. In my household I recommend everyone to use Apple devices, it keeps them safe and happy.

Ultimately everyone is entitled to their own choices and have to accept the consequences. I guess we'll have to wait and see how it plays out now that it's coming to iOS 17 in the EU.
Elon unknowingly funded migration of people to mastodon and other federated social media when he brought Twitter. This is just another step on that long term plan.

I know the internet is not a good place to be naive, but I find being overly cynical is not a good state of mind to be in - for me. I ocassionally override the "maybe scam" siren in my head if the help I provide is a small amount or non financial.

Always be wary of giving away money, but sometimes a little money is the best help that can be provided.
