It took my team six months to get our company GDPR-compliant, and that included hiring three external consultants with extensive knowledge of GDPR and its implementation across the various EU countries we did business in. We were a short-term car rental company, we did not earn money with user-tracking, advertising or selling user data. But we did process drivers licenses, user data, trip data. We had to re-write big parts of our car-tracking module because having it tied to the current driver (customer) automatically made it personal data, which can be requested on demand when the customer wants to. It also limited us on what we could log to our logging server and store in a database.

I can understand that an American company does not want to make such an investment when there is literally 0 added business value, as EU customers don't shop at that company.
What are you talking about? You need to cite sources about people in the US getting “vanished” for simply using a VPN.

Hey! Don't take my comment as too negative, I do like the idea & enjoyed using Pynecone right to the point I got stuck. Best of luck improving it, I'll definitely circle back in the future
Yes, but at that point you've implemented abstractions on the JVM's abstractions, or used platform/implementation dependent code.

What's the point, just to say you did it?

It's not impossible, it's just not worth the ROI time wise for most people with the desire to make a C/C++ standard compliant compiler to do so-- and even if they do, the amount of traction it'll gain will be minimal because developers can make an educated choice not to use it when native C/C++ compilers are available, or alternative JVM languages like Kotlin.

Which is why you have a bunch of attempts at this that stopped development in 2009/2015.
I think the concern is the possibility of damage in transit. I think most of the ESA & NASA's scientific missions effectively get final assembly on site, followed by a pre-launch check, then clearance to be placed in the final stage's payload chamber.
Right?! Aternos, a free on-demand minecraft server host, makes your experience trash if you block ads. However, in my experience, it's still better than having ads enabled. The ads continuously pop over things I'm working on, play music and videos, and frequently have no clear way to exit them until they're done. I'd rather just leave my ad blocker on and let them do their weird torture moves it's still better than having the ads shoved into my experience.

I think suffix is much more natural for anyone using a left-to-right writing system. It's not "empire strikes back: episode V: star wars", and most non-technical people think TLDs are hierarchical from left to right.

As a Ruby dev, that Crystal is "close but different" means I know I won't be able to use my Ruby code but at the same time I get too little in return to make it feel worthwhile.

For the very rare circumstances where Ruby is too slow for what I need to do, there's usually code in some other language I can wrap in an extension, and that code is far more likely to be C or some other more established language than Crystal.

Who has been "vanished"in the US?

Jack Ma was essentially on house arrest for over a year after flying a little too close to the sun with his IPO plans. Peng Shuai was on house arrest for denouncing sexual abuse by a CCP member.

>the headers files are a pain and feel unnecessary.

>no common package manager.

I actually really love these. The best thing about C(++) is that, more than being simple a la Python, things are /obvious/. When writing Python code, for example, I often find myself opening a REPL window and testing small language features ("...can you __import__ a module twice if you bind both copes to different variables? do they have unique module-scoped state?"). "take this text file and insert it into this other text file" requires ZERO new considerations. ditto with having specific memory structures for objects, etc. etc.

oh, and package managers are evil. you end up getting locked into some bullshit ecosystem or workflow that you never wanted to sign up for, not to mention the obvious security issues (it seems like a large npm or pip package gets compromised once a month).

Was the last Starship launch actually covered or reacted to differently? New York Times basically said "it exploded but experts agree that this was an important step forward" and all coverage and reactions I saw were "gosh, this is awesome, better luck next time". The negative comments I saw were the same I have been seeing since Falcon 9 was learning how to land.
>I feel we're setting up for a SpaceX monopoly if they nail Starship reusability

NASA gave contracts to BlueOrigin, ULA and others beside SpaceX. ULA was the only rocket provider to Pentagon for a long time before SpaceX come along. Jeff is as rich as Elon and he did pump money into BlueOrigin every year. if SpaceX did a better job then SpaceX deserved the market shares.

I haven't been to Iowa since the late 1990s, but when I did visit Cedar Rapids I was struck by how nice everyone was. It was like going back to the 1960s: nobody swore, everyone was ridiculously polite, people seemed to have visible respect for engineers and other expert professionals. I'm struggling to reconcile all those nice people in Iowa with a state that is repealing basic child-labor protections.

Automating the workers away is always to goal. But the irony is that automation makes the few humans that are left in the loop more important than before. So it is possible to end up in a situation where 1000s of easily replaceable employees were replaced by 10s of very difficult to replace employees and very complex system. So all in all it can be that even 10x productivity increase per employee might not be enough to justify the costs overall.

So I guess we have to see this case by case as in manufacturing and industries.

> The same applies today, you just have to utilize any other internal attack vector, such as code injection in CI, on the deployment server, through a personal dependency etc.

None of the mitigation techniques for code injection work for LLMs.

Very literally, nobody in the industry has come up with a solution for malicious input into LLMs. It's an entirely different class of vulnerability. There isn't any dependency you can import or sanitization you can do or technique for getting rid of this.

In fact, I've seen research papers where security researchers are starting to hint that hardening prompts might actually be impossible for the current batch of LLMs.
If you hate tiktok, I get it —- I really do. But please just know that you’re missing out on something wonderful, unique, and delightful; in fact, delightful in ways remarkably similar to the feeling that https://news.ycombinator.com/highlights gives you.

There’s a commonality between HN and TikTok that I haven’t yet been able to put into words. They’re both “bookish”. You feel like you’re exploring. Often times I’ll swipe past 6 or 7 memes in about 3 seconds, when something incredible catches my attention. And it’s often incredible in exactly the same way as HN: you feel like you’ve unearthed some fascinating gemstone. (And much like HN, it’s designed for entertainment, so you can waste arbitrary amounts of time if you fall under its spell too long.)

I wrote a comment at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34573893 showcasing the three lists I was particularly proud of: educational, physics, and math. But I have dozens more. There’s guitar tutorials, handyman repairs, a collection of 18 videos teaching you how to tie all kinds of useful knots, art tutorials, cute animals, hardcore ML discussions, and everything in between. Someday I’ll showcase them properly. (Theoretically you can view them on my TikTok profile, but I doubt it’s presented well: https://www.tiktok.com/@theshawwn)

Just know that if you stomp TikTok out of existence, it’ll be a real loss. It’ll feel to me like you’d feel if someone burned down HN. And the calls for banning TikTok sound to me how you’d feel if Reddit was urging everybody to ban HN.

Now imagine that politicians are seriously considering whether to ban HN. That’s how it feels to read through the comments here about TikTok. The outrage is deserved and understandable, but it’ll be a real loss if it disappears.

If this comment coaxes you into trying out TikTok, one tip: use the “not interested” button ruthlessly. (Long press on a video.) The algorithm will dial you in after around 45 minutes, which isn’t so long. The first experience can feel jarring the same way that YouTube in incognito mode looks like a weird dystopian universe filled with people screaming at each other.
Given the incredibly high value of any knife in such a society, I'd suspect it was just an anti-theft measure. You can't really climb up on someone's thatch roof while they are sleeping, rustle about until you find their knife, then slip away into the night.
> But the technique is general. It's not scripting or JVM specific and there's no specific reason the language your interpreter reads has to be textual. […] And that's how you can run C or any other language on the JVM without killing performance.

That's not entirely true though, because the Graal compiler has certain assumptions about your language (e.g. you need some form of "methods" and "calls", otherwise Graal won't compile anything), which means it is not exactly straight forward or efficient to run let's say x86 machine code on the GraalVM. It's also not easy to properly support an "mmap" call in an efficient way although it is required by virtually every compiled program that uses glibc, because none of the "scripting or JVM languages" need this and therefore there are no facilities in Truffle to support this.

That being said, a fully sandboxed x86_64 emulator for the GraalVM exists and IIRC it is roughly as fast as the JIT based qemu-x86_64 after warmup.

Sulong (the LLVM bitcode interpreter of GraalVM) is also not ideal, because it directly executes the LLVM IR although some C code assumes that it is compiled to machine code. This means some libraries use e.g. inline assembly, or try to do some stack walking, or use entire subroutines implemented in assembly, or rely on certain POSIX behavior, which isn't (fully) implemented in Sulong. A lot of programs work, but if something doesn't work, chances are it's caused by one of the few fundamental flaws of Sulong. Oracle is experimenting with a workaround by not running everything in LLVM IR in the future, but we'll have to wait and see how good this works in the end.

Trickle down economics seems to have been a failure. I would agree about that.

But that's not the mechanism we're talking about with housing at all.

What we're talking about with housing is that there are 5 houses and 10 people, and in that kind of scarcity environment, 5 people are going to lose out. In most cases, it's going to be the 5 people with the least money.

But even if you do a lottery or something else, 5 people are still going to lose out and that's bad.

That doesn't work in Dyalog APL, comes back with RANK ERROR.

It's idiomatic to pick ⊃ the first result of ⎕NGET to get just the lines to work on, and not the other things like file encoding.

Then grade-up-right-train-each (⍋⊢)¨ is redunant, it's the same as grade-up-each ⍋¨

The grade is an array of which indices to take to put the argument in sorted order and I don't think it makes sense to group ⌸ by that since the grade isn't the same for different arrangements of letters, so the whole approach breaks down there. I think the words have to be sorted, e.g to pick out 'bat' and 'tab' as the same letters:

{⍺, ≢⍵}⌸{⍵[⍋⍵]}¨words ← 'bat' 'dog' 'tab' 'cow' 'wok'

abt 2
dgo 1
...

Then 1<≢¨ would be "1 is less than the count (tally) of each" which fits somewhere in the solution, but not there and won't work on my array. We don't need to know the actual sorted letters so we can inline the bitmask of which answers matter or not in the first column:

{(1<≢⍵),⍵}⌸{⍵[⍋⍵]}¨words ← 'bat' 'dog' 'tab' 'cow' 'woka'
┌→────┐
↓1 1 3│
│0 2 0│
│0 4 0│
│0 5 0│
└~────┘

Any with a 1 in the first column are anagrams, and 0 in the first column are not. And the other columns are indices into the wordlist where the matching words are, so words[1,3] picks out 'bat' and 'tab' and it's probably possible to filter rows with 1 in the first column:

{⍵[;1]⌿⍵}{(1<≢⍵),⍵}⌸{⍵[⍋⍵]}¨words←'bat' 'dog' 'tab' 'cow' 'bta' 'racecar' 'carrace'

and then drop the first column:

1↓[2]{⍵[;1]⌿⍵}{(1<≢⍵),⍵}⌸{⍵[⍋⍵]}¨words

Then uhh filter out the zeros to avoid index error, and index into the word list, so:

{words[⍵/⍨⍵>0]}¨⊂[2]1↓[2]{⍵[;1]⌿⍵}{(1<≢⍵),⍵}⌸{⍵[⍋⍵]}¨words←⊃⎕NGET 'wordlist.txt' 1

┌→───────────────────────────────────────────────────
│ ┌→────────────┐ ┌→────────────────┐ ┌→────────────┐
│ │ ┌→──┐ ┌→──┐ │ │ ┌→────┐ ┌→────┐ │ │ ┌→──┐ ┌→──┐ │
│ │ │aah│ │aha│ │ │ │aahed│ │ahead│ │ │ │aal│ │ala│ │ [...]

Okay, though this seems to be someone who tries to imitate Midjourney using Stable Diffusion, so it is still not quite clear how Midjourney does it.

Since you seem to default to sending me to RTFM :D, I'll give you a similarly short reply:

ActivityPub can identify users based on their domain too. Probably better than BlueSky does, because it uses better standardized mechanisms - the URI needs to dereference to a valid ActivityPub actor and the community has converged to using webfinger for discovery. The fact that web-finger is generally used for user discovery makes it easier to use the identical mechanism that BlueSky uses - where the identity (which in ActivityPub is a URL) is not tied directly to a domain. (Eg, if you do a webfinger query for marius.federated.id you will get a response where it tells you that one of the URLs for the ActivityPub identity associated with that is https://metalhead.club/@mariusor, you can check it out right now with curl https://marius.federated.id/.well-known/webfinger?resource=h...).

Account portability can exist in ActivityPub because the verbs for signaling to the network that an object/actor has moved to a different URL are in the vanilla vocabulary. The fact that nobody has implemented this so far does not make it impossible. (It's not like anyone so far needed to move from BlueSky to ... I don't know... BlueSky. So it being capable of moving identities is still equally theoretical in my view).

Regarding your last point (or the one made about it in the twitter thread), I don't really understand about how identifying content by its cryptographic signature is conducive to better caching and "syncing" (how in the world a hash would make it easier to sync content than a URL I don't know). HTTP clients, servers and proxies have very good caching and syncing mechanisms for anything that uses URLs to identify resources. Whatever BlueSky wants to do, must invent their own intermediary layers before anyone will be able to say "it's easier" with any certainty.

In my opinion nothing you mentioned can be called a "doing things wrong from first principals(sic)" - and I'm still hoping that linuxdude314 can make a better argument.

ActivityPub is fine for what it was designed to be: an exchange mechanism for "low impact" social activity. It's not meant to interact with cryptocurrencies, it's not meant to shelter dissidents from corrupt governments, it's not meant to help you interact with your drug dealer, nor whistle-blow on your employer. There are already options for those things. It is meant to allow your grandma to like your cat pictures in a more distributed manner than facebook offers. The people that imagine BlueSky will be doing something more than that, are - in my opinion - vastly overevaluating it.

EU approves controversial Dutch farm buy-out plan to meet climate goals
metaphysics is one of the best games in town for we are all at a existential disposition. and buddhism holds it's own: not only does it have a powerful and credible metaphysics but a well-grounded epistemology and ethics which has inspired many from bashō to schopenhauer. nāgārjuna, dōgen, niguma, bodhidharma, to name a few, are on par with the manifestations of jc, laozi, and ramakrishna

if only assimilation came easily! unfortunately in modernity, we are cursed with reducing our psyche to a smooth glossy surface where everything just slides off and nothing is taken in and allowed to reshape us

but buddhism brings forth countless of interesting questions, e.g., paraphrasing žižek: not can we really break out of this wheel of desire into the primordial peace of nirvana but how did this primordial peace get disturbed in the first place? how did appearances emerge? or rather, is there a deeper tension in nirvana itself of infinite self-contradiction?
