Arguing for a UBI and universal Healthcare as though government welfare programs are an obvious must for any government is ridiculous. By all means, arguing for why they're necessary federal expeditures is on thing, assuming that it's a given part of any government is completely ignoring the tradeoffs that must be accepted for such programs.
I think the point is open software all the way; the hardware is not the issue. As long as there are binaries without source included, we have a problem.

A good GC can benefit greatly from lower level constructs, so while it is absolutely possible to run a GC within WASM, running a good GC is significantly harder if not impossible.

I’m wondering if it’s possible that the UAPs with no means of propulsion that pilots see and record could be doing some energy transfer using this or a similar principle.

Yeah this is true. Adsense is a very difficult way to make money on YouTube, and it's stuff like sponsorships, selling merch, selling courses, Patreon, etc that usually keep a lot of creators afloat.

If you can get those working for you, you can definitely get by on a few hundred thousand subs, and I know lots of creators in exactly that situation.

But yeah the challenge there is definitely building enough of a community that people are willing to pay you for that stuff, which is more difficult than just posting videos would be. Especially given that your niche has a huge effect on how easily you can make money from those things, and whether your community is going to be 'loyal' enough to support you that way. Creator focused and topic focused channels have very different routes and possibilities for monetisation...
This is a good thing. Google is rightly criticized for having overlapping/duplicate functionally in their services. This is an example of them slowly/responsibly combining some.

It all remains to be seen, some EU Joe random hotshot issuing warnings is no more than that, warnings. If any action is to come from the EU side, it’ll be after years and years of legal wrangling and it wouldn’t surprise me one bit if Apples lawyers end up outsmarting some pompous EU councilman.
I think that was the GPU’s heatsink in an AGP2X slot. I was probably an ATI Rage Fury or whatever it was called at this point.

I'm divided on this one. On one hand, I can see a lot of good in this, because, well, I'm on HN.

On the other hand, I think people would find it weird that anybody would be allowed to do that IRL with physical building, so why allow it on the internet?

Given that the consequences of probing a website are less than cracking on an office, and the surface of attack bigger on a website, with potentially a larger cascade, I think I can find more arguments for than against.

Disroot is a project that was born from the personal need to communicate
For every point except AI takeover, I agree.

AI takeover isn't well defined, and by extension it isn't assured to be sensible — if a narrow AI is made to optimise the heck out of [high contagious, short latency period, long incubation period, high lethality, can form stable reservoirs in other species], it can be good at that without any long term planning about what happens next.

Conversely, we can also consider one that solves Von Neumann replication, and then it's less than a century to disassemble the planet Mercury, and from there a week or two for each of Venus and Earth. Assuming it had that as a goal.
There you go. Less programmers in general and the party is over.

What a sad state of affairs. Your second example is far more news worthy.

I'm a bit confused / underwhelmed. The author casually mentions he already created the logo, color palette and some reference assets. I'm not a designer but i feel like by that point he already created the entire brand entity himself.

What midjourney did was create some new assets based on his already established identity. Certainly a use case, but did it really design a brand identity?

No one is forcing you to load anything you don't want to. You don't need to force your decision onto everyone. There is a difference between "I don't want to load your code" and "I don't want anyone to have the ability to load your code".
Some interesting aspects, in no particular order.

Pure capability-based access control, where capabilities are communicable, but not forgeable "references with rights" to objects. While this is interesting, it's not really unique: other L4 kernels also have it, and Capsicum (but not POSIX capabilities) implements something like it on Unix. But even here, seL4 has some unique twists, such as the way IPC replies are handled, which allows policies that prevent "unsolicited" replies.

A unique approach to memory management, where after boot-time, the kernel does no memory management, and even kernel memory is managed completely by user-level code. In fact, the kernel has no heap. Instead, when the user requests an operation that requires kernel memory (e.g. creating an address space, which requires memory for page tables) the user provides the memory explicitly to the kernel. This sets seL4 apart not just from monokernels, but from other L4 kernels as well.

Support for passive servers: one of the most exciting recent features, these are server processes that run on scheduler time "donated" by the client. Among other things, this can be used to make sure that non-critical clients will not monopolize services needed by critical clients.

IIRC seL4 is also the fastest L4 kernel for most use cases - and its worst-case execution time is bounded, at least on older CPUs which have published timing data.
HCF was a great show, and one of the only shows that goes as far back as the BBS days before the Web “caught on”. The cast is pretty good. Highly recommend watching.
Nobody is even going to be trying after this comes into effect.
I’d haven’t really considered this angle, but if ChatGPT is an existential threat to Google search, we’re probably going to see signs that Google is ignoring even more if these side projects.
> I think the reason why you won't see any big exclusives on PC is that because consoles are close to PCs, big games should be ported to console otherwise you're missing out on huge markets.

Yeah, but today it is mostly the other way round: Big console games get ported to PC. Exceptions like Cyberpunk 2077 (which was a PC-first development) are increasingly rare. Smaller games are another matter.
Thank you for writing this, I use it as a reference when explaining the difference STARTTLS and implicit TLS and why people should choose one over the other.

Another nice one is that implicit TLS is SNI routable (and thus much easier to route) -- this is the main reason for me, and I wish the standard had been updated to encourage more people to try 465 (or have a way to specify port in DNS records for example). Huge missed opportunity.

Yes, I appreciated your previous list of 'things it would be better to work around if possible'. But "a large amount of operations will just suck" did sound overly pessimistic :) We are talking about a small percentage of the ~220 ops in Highway.

I agree it's important to benchmark the performance win in any case. Perhaps even automatically picking the best instruction set, because it's nontrivial to predict.

As to SVE, it can help on AWS Graviton3 - but it's still only 2x256 bit vs 4x128 bit, so whether it's a win depends on whether you can/do use some of the newer instructions that were not yet supported in NEON.

You mean like how EU-compatible AC plugs/voltages are sold everywhere else in the world? Of course, manufacturers can have different versions of things for different geos--or just not sell in the EU if it's not profitable to do so (which presumably won't be the case with the iPhone).
The investigative Youtuber 'CoffeeZilla', Stephen Findeisen, often emphasises the human cost of scams, including bankruptcy and suicides. His description of these scams as a type of "financial murder" may sound extreme but I have to agree with him when the effects are so devastating to so many people.
The parent has a point, the regulation is forcing a slightly smaller battery, slightly less durable connector, much more expensive repairs when the port stem breaks, etc.

For devices that doesn't need the extra capabilities.
What a great point! I've even seen people simply post 4 numbers before, and people get what they mean.

This is truly an awful decision.
Not really, it is about achieving some effect with a specific dose. The effect is about some improvements in your life without tripping. If you're tripping, you're not microdosing.

Standards are good for everyone, even when very old and seemingly outdated.

Being "locked" on a a few not awful standard connectors is a good thing.

The Edison screw bulb is very simple, reliable, still used today even if I am sure that many companies would have invented more sophisticated standards over the years, I am glad they did not.

I still use audio jack connectors as much as possible, and I think that the world would be a slightly better place if we had universal AC power plugs.
No, this is a common misunderstanding.

The EU previously issued a Memorandum of Understanding, which basically just asked phone manufacturer nicely to please use USB micro-B. There was no mandate or enforcement (obviously, because Apple never released a phone with micro-B).

The USB-C law is an actual law which can't be ignored. The law will need to be updated when USB-D comes out.
I stand corrected, thank you!
I know everyone is high fiving but this like most Euro tech laws, is so obscenely murky and essentially opens the flood gates on anyone running servers over there.
I can't speak to FoundationDB specifically but in general, why would secondary indexes require a second quorum check?

Can't secondary indexes just be implemented in your state machine?

I.e. your state machine handles the insert and also writes a secondary index at the same time. Every state machine could do this identically off the log.

Some companies are so profitable, they can hide layers and layers of managerial ineptitude. Think how great Google could be if they had cohesion and oversight.
HaCF has an amazing line in it: "Computers aren't the thing. They're the thing that gets us to the thing." (1)

I still think abut it frequently. It's true. It's a statement about systems - often the utility is what they enable, not thing "thing in itself".

Even deep into software development, this is true. e.. I really appreciate git and github, but I don't need to focus on becoming a "git maestro" , I just need to get by in git, because git for me "isn't the thing", it's just "the thing that gets me to the thing".

Likewise, we can make software for people who are clever, even brilliant in what they do but who don't care abut the details of that software because for them it's not "the thing".

You need to chill. I'm doing my best to engage with your viewpoint within my completely human tolerance of discredited scientific ideas. Like the other commenter said you're doing the language equivalent of endorsing phrenology here and all I can have is imperfect patience for it.

But I'm not trolling you or intentionally fucking with you or anything. You are fundamentally wrong about how language works and maybe what language even is, and you're extremely hostile to genuine attempts to engage with that so I'm gonna take off. Good luck with it.
Can't speak for everyone but my worry for productivity while on the edge of burnout had nothing to do with sacrificing myself for the company. I was worried for my job, that's it. That falling below some unreasonable threshold of work done would get me fired, while realizing I can't keep up with the amount and speed of required work.

Fortunately it was mostly in my head and passive aggressive worked very well in reducing expectations. To a point where I became stressed that I was asked too little. Literally "they" forgot about me for a while. So while enjoying a paycheck for nothing, I realized that cannot last so sadly I became more involved, which lead to more work. At least for the time being I seem to have mastered the screws to throttle productivity and become a classic "do the minimum" loser from the Gervais hierarchy. (Which if you familiar with the concept just means long term sustainable amount and nothing more, nothing less).
An early web-centric company I worked for attempted to register www.se in like '94 or '95.

(Un)fortunately the one guy who manually processed all domain name applications for .se via email back then (ber@sunet.se; he passed away in 2005) found it "inappropriate" with no further explanation.
Is our tax dollars funding science or not? If it is tax funded why can’t I have a damn opinion? It’s my money.
I think all of this will be rendered bunk with the erosion of the cheap compute that underlies this current boom in cloud/saas/ml/ai. It all rests on printing dollars and shipping them to China and will implode as soon as the CCP decides they need to militarize the Taiwan matter. Every cottage industry dependent on an exploding number of datacenters should fall in line with the rest of the economy then and we'll be back to resource constrained software.
> By (b) I mean “security doesn’t matter,” in the sense that very few companies have ever died from security incidents. The cost is borne by the customers whose data is exposed, not the companies who allowed the breach.

Agree, east was a poor choice of word. Perhaps powerful would be better because frequently it can be difficult to attain. But it is difficult to pick good nuances for broad generalizations.

Open Core is the new shareware (The Moral Contract)
I dont think most politicians are all transactional, but I do think that willing to think about certain issues in a transactional way or willing to use transactions in certain deals helps you achieve your agenda. But you need to be willing to call that favor chit back in later, and able to think about the issues in a longer term way.

I worry about politicians who think about things in an excessively ideological eye, because the ideologues are immune compromising.
This sort of shit is the reason they will never get me to use their passkey implementation.

The sooner there's a truly portable open source offline version of passkeys I'm all in. Until then I'm sticking with my password manager.

I do feel the only thing you can really trust from Google are the things that make them money. Chrome, and any software that allows them to hook into for advertising money. It makes me worry about go, dart, and flutter. Though the latter two include analytics which you need to disable.
As Lily Tomlin used to say in her comedy skits: “We don’t care. We don’t have to. We’re the phone company!”
Huh, maybe I missed something, my understanding was, that they have no new plants ready to go anytime soon as they just left their old ones, which now have the issues they have. Do you have a link?
You already can, plant trees or other plants or use algae farms etc. Then sequester the carbon into something that will not decay quickly and release it back.

The problem is always scale, so any artificial mechanism that would mimic this would have to many orders of magnitude more efficient than using existing biological solutions to be viable as biological solutions are simpler and cheaper to do at any scale.

Beware, Matomo by default isn't very privacy friendly, you will need the GDPR banner for any advanced features.

If you want a GDPR compliant analytics you have to disable many of its flagship features, or use something else like Plausible, designed to work with no consent.
Having a thing that makes nice big carbon structures from atmospheric carbon would be nifty, though. People use wood for all sorts of things; being able to plop a "seed" some place and come back in a couple seasons and have a structure made from sunlight, ambient minerals, and co2 from the air -- would be super cool.

I still can't quite convince my kids or other people I mention it to -- hey -- this tree? Almost all of it comes from air and sunlight. I'm lucky to live near some really big, really old trees; they're quite obviously magical.
> And, TPMs do have actual privacy mechanisms. End-user TPMs do not offer up their endorsement key to any third party. Attestation workflows shield third parties from the endorsement key.

Then how do endorsement keys work?

If I understood the OP correctly, the purpose of the endorsement key is so a third party can choose only to accept attestation from TPMs of "trusted" vendors. How does this work if the third party can't query the endorsement key?
If I had to guess, I'd say infinite regression is how the real world works, and quantum mechanics is how our reality's simulator lazily computes interactions.
> isn't there a concern
Yes, there is, but there's a few things mitigating the concern IMO

1. The "locking in" is not universal, it mostly concerns portable devices and has exceptions for higher wattage requirements
2. USB-C is a very flexible format, at the moment I think Thunderbolt 4 is the maximum commercially and that can deliver 40Gbs and 240W
3. What's locked in is a minimum, you can have two different charging ports on any device as long as one of them is USB-C

So as far as I can see you would incur into problems if you:
1. Want less than 100W of power
2. Need more than 40Gbs (I think thunderbolt 5 will bring this to 80?)
3. Don't care about compatibility with headphones, mice, keyboards, external hard drives etc which more and more are going to switch to usb-c
5. Can't physically put more than one charging port on the device
6. They can't afford to make the case for an exception from the commission

This is certainly a possibility but I think it's a minor one, and personally it's worth it if it means I can bring less chargers around (it's less highlighted but for devices with certain capabilities this law also mandates compliance with power delivery standard)

My approach to the whole thing is that I more or less see USB-C as a parallel to electrical sockets, we might be missing out on some theoretical improvements but I'll take that chance

> means in 50 years the EU is still stuck
The commission can adapt the law through implementing regulations and it can still be adapted or repealed through the standard process, I can see as realistic us in the EU missing out on some fancy new port for 2-3 years (which I grant would suck) but doubt it'd be more than that
