Sounds like a libertarian trope. Their house, their rules.

AWS and all the clouds are too big. They structure prices to milk the most of their captured customers. They all price their products within parity, so on the whole there isn't a huge difference in moving. This also makes a nice natural churn between them. The clouds themselves offer almost no innovation in the computing space.

You know who the real rubes are? Everyone else, chip manufacturers, storage, etc. They all made commodity things using shared protocols and people are just pissing it away. And this sht replacing everything is worse than the stuff getting recycled, hardware, ideas, all of it.

They should definitely do it.

They should also acknowledge that they did a shoddy job. They let the malware run unchecked for several years. It is clear that the safeguards they had in place did not work, not for protection, but especially for detection.

Instead, they chose to boost the image of their own products and bash a third party vendor with a questionable reasoning.

Ask HN: If we make it open source, how do we monetize it?
I don't want to make a bad business decision. But I feel like we should make our product open source, with capital OSS. The reason is because it expands the value for companies considering using it by not being afraid they will lose access in future, although they can ensure that now with perpetual licenses which we currently sell.

However, if we want to have a SaaS offering, making it Open Source could encourage people to trust that relying on that will not incur future debt. This is because they can circumvent future problems by self-hosting the open source version.

The problem is, while seemingly expanding the value, it looks like we reduce the amount of value we can capture, and encourage people and companies to use it without paying, giving them a free head start to their own (internal or external) product ambitions. What incentive to they have to return the value they receive to us, unless we charge for it up front?

I don't really like this choice right now, and I don't feel we have to make it, but I feel instinctually it could be a good thing to do. It doesn't sound smart tho. What do you think? What do you do, in your startup or business or side-project?

> I find such summary ambiguous. Difficult for who?

What is "solve"? The example given was finding a route on a map. Is any route a valid solution, or only the best one? Does the time differ for finding a route of the same quality, or does it differ only for how long it takes until the brain is satisfied with the solution?
I'd assume the former. I can see that being pretty handy to assert e.g. "anyone claiming to be me on Twitter is lying".
Some things can only be said as a joke or by accident or both.
Game design is limited by the technology of its time. Lara Croft's face was poorly defined, and her features were exaggerated partly because it wasn't possible to render an attractive quasi-realistic character before the first generation of 3D hardware. The renders shown in promos and cover art were done in much higher quality, and the Lara in those hardly resembled the in-game Lara either.

> That's like Nintendo deciding, after the 6th Super Mario title, that Mario should now look like a more realistic man and lose his big nose and his outdated hat. Or as if Capcom had decided, for Metal Gear Solid 3, to swap out Solid Snake for some other guy with the same name.

You're saying that Mario and Snake didn't also change from their initial 2D sprites to their later 3D models? Mario's nose and signature cap were hardly distinguishable in the early games, and just weren't important compared to the gameplay. Mario himself changed radically in each game; from Tanooki, frog and cat suits, to becoming other characters entirely in Odyssey. Snake's features only became visible in the first MGS, and the model in The Phantom Pain might as well be a different character. (It doesn't help that MG chronology is confusing as hell, and I'm not certain that "Venom" Snake is actually the same person as "Solid" Snake...)

The change of Lara Croft was certainly influenced in part by the zeitgeist, as you say, but it's largely the result of normal character evolution in most gaming franchises. Do you really expect a character to have a braid in all versions? And why is Lara's hair or physical proportions so important to her character? Her defining features are being an upper-class explorer and overall badass, which is part of every TR game.

This is a really good article, BTW. Kudos to the author!

Can the attacker still get any information about the user if the embedded frame is hidden?

From the description above quoted by GP, it sounds like the user has to "interact" with the content in the embedded page for the attacker to be able to conclude they have access to the content.
Force cannot be used but offers of food, shelter, and care elsewhere can and must be offered. In general, only the very rich can afford to live in the most central, desirable locations because the costs of everything are so damn high. It's only fair that most people who aren't insanely rich (like me) should find somewhere they can afford to live or where society can afford to help them. Trying to linger in SF Presidio or Manhattan is well above almost everyone's means.

Same here - You can tell immediately within 10-15 minutes if a person has "the right stuff". Anything above that is just you sucking tiny milliliters of juice out of a carrot hoping that "maybe" they'll work out and you can get "some" productivity out of them down the line or "maybe" they're secretly a really good developer.

Either that, or the amount of time you subject potential hires is just a "signal" of your power and a filter for the needy, desperate and intellectually invested. I guess some companies are looking for that.

Nix works quite differently compared to other distributions. If you have eg. the hello package in Debian it specifies that it is dependent on the glibc C library with some version range. You can install another version of glibc and the package manager will consider hello's glibc dependency satisfied as long as it is within the version range.

In Nix on the other hand, a particular hello package/binary will be dependent on the glibc that it is built with. That doesn't mean just the same glibc version, even if you'd change something like glibc's build flags it'd be considered a different version [1]. One of the benefits is reproducibility. If you build hello from the same nixpkgs revision as I do (barring any impurities), you'll have exactly the same hello with the same transitive dependencies.

Now, with hello this may not matter as much, because it's a simple program and glibc is fairly stable. But now imagine that you are doing some machine learning project and you want to provide a reproducible machine learning experiment. Building on a typical packaging ecosystem (eg. pip) is like building on quicksand. There are all kinds of subtle behaviors that can change and influence your experiment (eg. you machine learning library rewrites some compute kernels, and the small numerical differences pile up after a large number of layers). Though usually it ends at: my system has Python 3.11 and this experiment requires an old PyTorch version that was only built for Python 3.5 and earlier. The Nix approach gives you the benefit of pinning almost the whole world - your experiment and all its transitive dependencies.

Suppose you have a package repository like nixpkgs or Debian that contains tens of thousands of packages that are continuously updated. In Debian, if glibc is updated, it gets rebuilt and you are done. glibc has a stable ABI, so packages that were built against the previous glibc version don't need to be rebuilt. In nixpkgs if glibc is updated, every package that uses glibc needs to be rebuilt due to Nix' use of exact dependencies. And this is true for almost all non-leaf packages --- a package update requires all packages that are (transitively) dependent on that package to be rebuilt. And you need to store all these builds, so that users can download them, otherwise their machines need to rebuild the packages on every update. This is how you end up with a gigantic binary cache.

[1] This is a bit different now that Nix supports content-addressing for non-fixed output derivations.

Browsers won't accept a certificate unless it comes with proof that it was submitted to a CT log.

So a government could MITM you but they'd have to burn a CA to do it, whether you personally noticed the attack or not, so it's a very high cost attack
If you went "meta-nix" and had a nix package hierarchy that was just constructed out of operations and inline literal binary blocks, then the results of those purely functional operations (splice, insert, f(n), swap, etc) could be content-addressed and deduplicated.

Views of purely functional data transformations of f_tran(n)(addr_start:addr_end), but if you symbolize it you, you make it generic. The problem is that Nix isn't Haskell enough.

It also sounds like if they stored the cache on a deduping file system that their storage costs would plummet.
make it hard to install. provide a paid version that is easier to install. if the open source version ever gets easy to install, add new features to both of them, but only make the paid version still easy to install. control dependencies in the stack that require these features. repeat as necessary. if someone annoyingly keeps working for free on the open source version to keep making it easy to install then hire them to work on the paid version instead. use unprofessional logos and project names for the free version. keep the paid version polished. make the free version feel vaguely dirty like green vs blue text bubbles. write a lot of commentary and debate on the open source version mailing list or discord without improving the code.
In my opinion it's not worth it to bother with all of these "tricks". You need to adjust your lifestyle and you'll be able to get rid of myopia the same way you initially got it. Takes years though - I'm down about 3 diopters after 2.5 years.

I don't agree with the conclusion in the headline that this "puts direct listings in jeopardy". It should make them more likely.

It makes them more attractive to companies, and less attractive to investors. And the companies are the ones making the decisions!

Investors grumble about investor-unfriendly structures from public companies all the time: dual class stock, staggered boards, executive pay. But they suck it up and buy the companies at the same prices anyway. And it's not like this ruling gives companies carte blanche to defraud investors - in fact it's specifically about protecting companies that make a good faith mistake.

So investors can't make direct listings unpalatable. Who can? An act of Congress, or perhaps the SEC finding a way to make these companies' lives really miserable. Or major index providers deciding they won't include companies that went public via direct listing - but even then they'll likely have to cave to investor pressure.
I assume this is do to egress from S3. I wonder how that cost compares to re-generating the historic caches. Presumably that is possible with nix.

One issue that you'll run into is that many upstream source archives are not available anymore at the original URL. Though I think it should be possible to collect all fixed-output derivations and copy their outputs over to a new cache and then try to build. Once these are in the cache, Nix will not try to download the sources from the original location but use the binary cache instead.
I'm sure you're able to tell the difference between the guilt of Germany's government and various other collaborators in terms of starting and prosecuting WWI, and what they did prior to, and during WWII.

If Versailles went too far in punishing the country, Nuremberg went nowhere near far enough in punishing the Nazis involved. And if bringing Nazis to justice is 'humiliating the country', I would suggest that country should consider disentangling itself from them.

Tying your national identity to those monsters is not a good look.
Polluting plastics, carbon, cancers: the painful results of recycling plastic
Same. I always work on any given (hard enough) problem twice or three times. The first time I come up with some kind of prototype that may work or not, but it gives me foundation to work on the second prototype. The second one tells me how a final working and performant solution could look like, so I discard it and start from scratch. At the end I come up with the best possible solution I can provide.
Sometimes it takes fewer steps, sometimes more. And more often than not I let some time pass between attempts (maybe I go for a walk in between or I let a full day pass to work on something else).

At interviews they stop me at my first attempt.
> That said, is anyone hiring an ophthalmologist with CS and Math degrees?

As someone who recently transitioned to a tech role, I'd urge you to focus on applying to companies related to your existing fields (ophthalmology, medicine, surgery, and their derivatives) who happen to be seeking SWE's, rather than general tech companies. Especially Series A, B, C startups. Look up all the companies that make your equipment or the software that you use, and go to their jobs pages. See anything that is tech or tech adjacent: swe, swe test, qa engineer, automation engineer, data engineer, anything mentioning python or javascript. The job market is the worst in 20 years and so the only companies that gave me the light of day were the ones in my previous field (energy and mechanical engineering).

Not much, if you want historical nixpkgs revisions to be usable (without rebuilding the world locally, which would probably fail because of now-dead upstream download sites). Yanking historical output paths would do serious damage to some of Nix' claimed benefits (eg. reproducibility).

If it expands value this it's worth more to them.

Offer your customers the choice to purchase your software under a FOSS license. Make that (much?) more expensive than your current licensing offer.

Do NOT offer it under a FOSS license at no cost. You'll be your own competition.

> and encourage people and companies to use it without paying, giving them a free head start to their own (internal or external) product ambitions

You can offer that ability without a FOSS license. They don't also need the right to redistribute, sell, or otherwise commercialize your work for a free head start.

Many major browsers expect CT, and won't accept a certificate from a default CA without it being in CT. Therefore it matters a little less whether such a certificate can be issued, but rather whether it can be accepted by a browser (which many popular ones won't). And therefore it will become relatively noisy and detectable if such a certificate is deployed at any sense of scale.

Chrome - https://chromestatus.com/feature/6244547273687040

Safari - https://support.apple.com/en-gb/HT205280

Firefox doesn't support it yet though - https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1281469

In essence, a cryptographic proof that the certificate was sent to CT providers needs to be enclosed along with the certificate. That can come via an OSCP staple, or a TLS extension.

> There's just no reason to do the job when you can get the same compensation working remotely in tech. Looking through the "Who's Hiring" thread is soul-crushing. Physician salaries are the only ones that do not grow relative to inflation and have decreased year-on-year relative to inflation for decades.

What ? Most U.S physicians make 300K + after residency with job security set for life. The real bright ones, the "faang" doctors make close to a million. Show me anyone in tech who can have that guaranteed for him. You're basically guaranteed to join the millionaire club if you decide to work enough years even as a mediocre doctor.
Yes its an extremely difficult job I have no argument there, but there's no comparison to tech in terms of compensation or job security.
