GDPR only protects personal data. If someone requests deletion, you could probably keep the comments as long as you anonymize them (which Reddit does).

Your comments, including here in HN, are probably already covered by a scheme like that where you give the site operator an unrestricted license to use them. You can remove the association to your identity via GDPR, but to take down the content itself you’d need to go through the justice system.
Now, I'm not nessesarily advocating for it, but replacing all of your content with varying degrees of politically incorrect misinformation would be significantly more harmful to both Reddit and the GPT bots scraping its dataset than merely deleting the information.

Garbage in, garbage out after all.

To add, it's also the how the information changes over time. Often, the same questions get answered and similar topics get discussed multiple times over the years for the topics where related information doesn't remain static. It's always interesting to see how certain things evolve over time.

The only example I can give off the top of my head is subreddit for the game No Man's Sky. Its subreddit provides the best illustration of how the game has evolved compared to anywhere else. Not just in player sentiment, which could be gleamed from Steam reviews, but also how aspects of the game have changed that are better reflected in pictures and discussions than a changelog or release blog. For example, you can find screenshots of how the procedural generation of planets in the game has changed from 2016 to today, interesting bugs that only existed for a specific patch, datamined assets that never got used, etc.

We need to add a doc page about relationship with WASM...

In short, WASM was not designed to be interpreted, and definitely not on small devices. The DeviceScript VM bytecode is designed to run directly from flash (read-only memory of which you have typically 10x more on an embedded system), with minimal overheads.

Also WASM is not designed as a runtime for a dynamic language, eg., + operator would be for two i32 and what you really want for JavaScript semantics is to have a + operator that works on strings, NaN-boxed numbers, etc.

As for AssemblyScript, I guess it's meant as language for small fragments of your code, not the whole application. For application you would be probably better off with Rust or similar and native compilation.

I actually perceived this as helping people who may want to remove inappropriate comments that they've made over time. In the current age where propagandists from all walks of life dig up old comments to cancel people, I think this may be very useful for Reddit users.
Well, if that's the case, they can easily switch to "show 'deleted' content" - removing your comments doesn't delete them from Reddit's DB.
Ding ding!

You didn't mention it, but same thing is true for remote surgery applicatons.

Telepresence for subject matter experts is a fundamentally new application that is unlocked by AR/VR tech. To nitpick, its more of an industry application rather than a consumer one(apple/meta releasing consumer-targeted products because the market is bigger) - but you're right that it's a good use case. Particularly in time-sensitive cases where industry would have to wait days to fly someone out when they need help immediately. To be fair though... a cell phone video call can already get you maybe half of the way there I'd say(where VR still might only get you to 80% given you cant smell/touch).
Agreed, most of those commenting are essentially saying "I'm totally gonna delete my account on June 30th, just you see! Well... unless Reddit backs down..."

They're mostly Reddit addicts and they're probably not going anywhere.
Absolutely not. Healthcare is already oppressively expensive in the US and now you want companies to be able to commercialize and exploit my private health information for profit? And they don’t even have to pay for it so they can sell me the cure they developed using information from my private health information?

America needs to be a radically different place for me to be okay with what you want.
Dependabot lets you know if a dependency you use has a vulnerability and opens a PR. The problem comes when teams are unwilling to merge those PRs even if tests pass. In my experience there's a very binary split here. Some codebases (especially open source libraries themselves) will immediately merge a dependabot PR if tests are passing. Many companies though find these PRs languish because they really need manual review to see if the change is safe and then an engineer needs to budget time in the case where it's not. These build up.

Medical research doesn't move slowly because medical records are private. Doing actual science takes alot of time, money, and effort. This is a foreign concept in the software world, where tons of engineering happens, but almost no science.

The main purpose of the magic dock seems to be enabling anyone to roll up and pay for their charging session. If there were a personal charger, the car would have to also be updated to perform the NACS handshake and communicate with Tesla's backend for payment (note that all payment and charging is handled by the car, and with some hacks you can enable free unlimited supercharging which the supercharger doesn't do any verification of).

Also, in the original announcement, I wonder if ford meant they'll give CCS to Tesla adapters[0] so that you can plug in on existing infra.

It sounds like it makes sense until someone else wants to charge their car regardless of whether yours is charged or not. That will be 99% of the use case for this. Just charge idling fees, that's a great deterrent for sitting there with your car fully charged and still plugged in. I'm not sure about all of the major networks, but Tesla and EA both charge those fees.
Well, capitalism is about choices. There are a multiple choices reddit could make, and there are multiple choices reddit users can make.

This is a fairly classic case of "you aren't the customer, you're the product", but that isn't the only way capitalism works.

This is capitalism and greed and disdain for the user.

I don't know if that will kill or materially damage reddit, but that combo kills plenty of regular businesses. (Salient difference is probably that user != customer, as with many internet businesses.)
I'm really not a fan of comments like these. There is nothing inherently wrong with capitalism, and 'problems' like this could be solved vid regulation.

So no, the problem really is greed, and the extreme resistance to regulation in the US.

Yes, in the spirt of talking about ChatGPT I did run my response through it. It is probably the worst thing it has ever produced for me. I ring this up to ChatGPT's "declining quality". :)
Thanks for sharing this! I'm not particularly interested in undertaking a project around this topic..but for the heck of it, glanced at the above link...and happened upon the statement on open source (https://www.commonhealth.org/developers#dev-link-2)...and was glad to have seen it! Now, having read that and CommonHealth's objective...i'm actually intrigued and may play around a bit. Kudos for working on/with CommonHealth!
>ChatGPT cannot uncover anything, especially the municipality-specific corpus of codes that the comment ostensibly claims to have access to.

It's possible the training set includes those codes (or a citation of those codes). It's possible that they used GPT4 with Browsing, or that it gave them the right terminology to search for & they then pasted in sections of the code and asked it to work off that.

It's also entirely possible ChatGPT hallucinated these utility code sections to support its case and the people working for the utility didn't call their bluff... which is essentially exactly what this story is about, except they got caught out because ChatGPT's bluff was called...
> When they removed the upvote/downvote count, it was clear reddit was fine with manipulation

I wasn't a big issue to me tbh. Vote fuzzing had always made those counts meaningless.
The article doesn't mention whether those are anonymised records. A PDF from the references expands on that:

> Pseudonymisation and anonymisation are not enough: health data is so specific
that re-identification can be trivial. Often a person’s social media or financial history, both widely available on today’s data markets, is sufficient to identify medical events that can easily lead to reidentifying supposedly pseudonymised or even anonymised datasets.

I agree with the sibling comment that we need more open data if (iff?) we want to increase the pace of medical research. But it seems to be a tough cookie to crack.
I've been using Shreddit to edit and delete my reddit comments at 5pm every day.

Couple of reasons:

* Keeps me disinterested from caring about karma and making comments all the time (basically keeps me a lurker)

* Prevents me from adding any value to Reddit who I hate as a company

* Since I don't leave comments it lessens the time I spend on the site

* Once I had my first kid I realized that my discourses online were pretty "unkind" and I realized that if my kids looked me up as teenagers I'd be pretty embarrassed. I went on a spree of removing all traces of myself online and now I just use throwaway accounts everywhere.
Yes, this is what USB-C PD is for. If you have a laptop capable of charging at 100+ W but you plug it in to a 45W charger, it will charge at 45W and maybe give you a notification about slow charging. (Sometimes you'll run into weird exceptions where either the charger or laptop doesn't support a particular voltage or has a lower current limit for some voltages so charging power can end up lower than you'd expect.)
Hacker News already has an API, and it's read only and extremely minimalist[0].

People are dumb. Lawyers shouldn't be. If distribution of stupidity among certain professions is similar to that of people in general, something has gone very bad somewhere in the education and certification pipeline.
If you have to educate each potential user before you can turn it into an actual user, then necessarily your userbase is going to be smaller than if you didn't require that education step.
What a weird idea! Can I ask where you got it from ?
when you find this doesnt work use this:

Go to Chrome
install Reddit Enhancement Suite (RES)
go to RES settings panel, set Never Ending Comments (load child comments) to on.

install Tampermonkey chrome extension
search it for scripts
install "Better Reddit Delete" script which is spaz version updated and improved.

go to old.reddit.com/user/youname/comments
there is a button at the top of the menu to delete comments and posts
(to delete all the comments need "never ending comments" set in RES else it will just delete the visible page)

(takes a long time, might have to leave it overnight, doesnt exit by itself)
if it only says it is deleting 25 comments then you may have to scroll to the end of the pages to then run the delete first. its kind of weird like that. I do it in sets of about 125 and repeat.
but it will show the number it is deleting in total greyed out on the screen as it runs.

remove all the extensions when done

For Firefox works same method
Most deletion apps I've seen also offer the ability to redact your comments with nonsense edits before deletion.

The interesting thing is this exact same thing happened in Hong Kong. There was an app for a popular web forum. It got banned and the developers released the code and subsequently someone turned that into the “Reddit of Hong Kong” and outgrew the original forum.

> HIPAA is a massive burden on medical and research organizations of all sizes

That is the point. It is supposed to be burdensome. It is supposed to be difficult and cumbersome to do anything with anybody's medical data.

I don't want to dismiss your comment entirely, because I understand the frustration around the good that the data could do but in the wrong hands it could be truly disasterous. I do not want Meta or Google anywhere near my medical data (and they're already pretty close in a lot of ways). I do not want my medical information used to enrich shareholders and that is the first thing that will happen; not improved research.

It should be easier for people to opt-in to sharing their medical data with a wide range of organisations if they choose but right now they never get a choice. It's either "we're making a law so we can give this data away" or not.

> the upside is just so much larger than the harms

I also don't agree with this as a blanket statement. For many people, including women in the US as you pointed out (amongst many other groups), the harms are criminalisation and imprisonment. The harm here, for the individual, far outweighs any potential benefit.
Kidnapping:

"the unlawful act of capturing and carrying away a person against their will and holding them in false imprisonment"

Nobody is being carried against their will. Nobody is being held under false imprisonment.
When combined with the data the big tech companies already have access to there is no such thing as anonymous medical data.
Doctor-patient confidentiality is important so that the doctor can act in your best interest (yes, yes, very funny) with full information. Very many things doctors need to be aware of to diagnose conditions have significant social stigma. Examples include alcoholism, mental disorders, substance abuse, genital status, sexual status, pregnancy status, the list goes on. The average person is reluctant to share this information to begin with, with good reason, as it goes into a permanent record. If such a record were public…

No, even for longitudinal studies, even with “anonymized” data, the risk is too great for any individual, and to society in general. Ideopathic and non-causal diseases should have some buy-in from patients; a standard waiver might be useful for research use of data. (I’ve signed one.) But in general, no, the restrictions are worth it.

Show HN: XPipe, a brand-new type of remote file browser and shell connection hub
Hey HN, I built this over the last months as I always wanted to have an easy file and terminal access to all of my servers, including containers and clusters that you normally can't connect to with existing solutions out of the box.

At first glance it might not look very novel, but if you dig a little deeper, you will see that the entire foundation of how it communicates with remote systems is completely different from any other solution out there. What happens in the background can essentially be explained this way: It launches a local shell process like cmd, sh, etc. and in it executes a command that opens a remote shell connection such as ssh user@host. All communication is then done through the stdin/stdout/stderr of that process. From there, it detects what kind of server and environment, e.g. shell type, os, etc. you have logged into and adjusts how it talks to the remote system. By then using file system related commands such as ls, rm, touch, etc. and its equivalents, it can realize a functional file manager that can connect to essentially every system. If you're interested in a more detailed explanation, I wrote a blog article that covers the Java implementation details: <https://foojay.io/today/presenting-xpipe/>

This approach to delegate everything to your installed tools is also utilized for other tasks. That means that I can save a lot of development time while you can happily use the tools you are comfortable with in conjunction with XPipe. In fact, XPipe doesn't ship with any libraries or tools for remote shell connections, protocol handling, or terminal integration at all. It just delegates everything to your own text editors, terminal emulator, and more.

Due to its nature, XPipe has to handle a lot of sensitive information like passwords, keys, and more. To tackle the topics of security and privacy, I added a dedicated security page in the repository that should hopefully contain all relevant information.

The early stage development has been quite challenging as this new approach requires a completely new implementation, but I am confident that it's ready now. I appreciate any kind of feedback from you to guide me in the right development direction from here. There are also no pre-determined future plans for this project, it mostly depends on how much traction it can gain.

Enjoy!
