Those are for cars with physical keys. In cars where the key switch is only telling the computer "is key present: [y/n]" they put a message on the bus that answers yes and the car starts. But if you're going to use the need for security as a defense then you don't start by designing your car like that.

Some car manufacturers have also attempted to use encryption and implemented it so poorly that it was easily cracked.

There is no technical reason that a car key can't effectively be a yubikey. The computer issues a challenge to the key, answering the challenge requires a secret stored in the key, so you need the key. It works as long as the encryption isn't broken.

And if "car can be remotely controlled" and the encryption is broken then that's a much bigger problem than anything your local mechanic is doing.
VC money. VC money gambles on big wins. They'd rather have a huge blow-out than a small success. So you take VC money, they want you to grow. They care about that more than making a profit. For a long time. Then, when you are huge, then they want money.

This sometimes works, sometimes doesn't. But Google and Facebook started out without a profitability plan.
> Typescript's "classic" resolution, built for AMD, was perfectly capable of working in the browser.

AMD require RequireJS runtime to work. It is not browser native technology. It is also not ESM. AMD as module systems is dead.

> Typescript's CommonJS resolution was always fine in Node for ESM when "type": "module"

It was not fine, when you use "type": "module" node.js expect extensions in imports. CommonJS resolution is not compatible with node.js ESM implementation. There is plenty of differences.

> 4.7's new resolution modes/tweaks added support for "mixed-type" packages

It added support for node.js ESM module resolution, making it possible to write ESM that would work under "type": "module" packages.

Just mention that mixed packages are not possible, you cannot require() ESM module and

> which again were a Node-specific thing, and "idempotent" browser ESM where Typescript does (nearly) no transformations other than type stripping, which is a nice-to-have but not entirely necessary to running in a browser.

In practical terms, any JS project needs to be compatible with node.js. If you want to use ESM it needs to be node.js variant. If you try to use anything other, your tooling would break.

"Although John Carmack is a multimillionaire, and his company brings in close to $20 million a year, he is still a self-described workaholic. "I still work 80 hours a week," he admitted to Mark Lisheron of the Austin American-Statesman. "It used to be 80 hours on software, now it's 40 hours on software and 40 hours on Armadillo." Carmack did ease up a bit after he and his wife, Anna Kang, had their first child in 2004—he was getting home from the office at about midnight instead of 2:00 AM or 3:00 AM. Kang, however, insists that Sunday is family day, so Carmack compromises by reading technical manuals to his infant son. "

Unclear how relevant this is given it's age but it's the closest public information you'll find.

Precursor signals for earthquakes is a field that has about as much credibility as astrology, from the few conversations I've had with professional geologists and planetary scientists. I had a minor and short-lived role in designing a sensor network that might be useful for these kinds of low-signal, high-noise precursors, and I got nothing but strange looks from actual geologists.
Yeah, back when I was into overclocking I looked at exotic methods such as chillers, thermo electric, and liquid submersion. The latter one was interesting way of building fully passive systems due to heat diffusion + lightning effects that looks amazing... the downside is weight and having your PC in the aquarium. With chillers / thermo electric, sizing is a problem because modern overclocked CPUs require monstrous amount of power, which means hugely overbuilt and noisy chillers. Thermo electric requires a lot of power + dedicated water cooling setup... was not really worth it for me.
Rumors of "tankies" running lemmy.ml gave me pause at first, but since it's a federated network with established independent nodes, it seems to me that a single problematic one shouldn't condemn the whole Lemmy platform (let alone the whole Fediverse, of which it is a part).

Alternative implementations would probably help as well. Kbin seems to be one. Given the sudden recent interest, perhaps we'll see more before long.

> with a direct government interest

Future readers! This is supposed to read “without a direct government interest” but I am only catching this well outside the edit window.
I once developed an „AI“ trying to predict when JIRA tickets in our startup get resolved. It was mainly a system based on k-nearest neighbor regression, predicting the closing date based on the average of k similar tickets (we had more than 1000 closed tickets already). It worked reasonable well. One of the most important features was the person creating the ticket. Some people wrote tickets really well and the tickets often got resolved in 48h. Others just wrote one cryptic sentence and nothing happened with these tickets for weeks.
But you need a lot of high quality data for that. Since that time I realized that writing wellformed tickets and also changing their state on time is really important for such tools. Modern tools actually don‘t use KNN, but some of them use Monte-Carlo-Simulation to estimate work:

https://kanbanize.com/kanban-resources/kanban-analytics/mont...

I believe used correctly these tools work better than all those scrum-pokers and t-shirt size manual estimation.
They have the right to reverse deletions, but it's a supremely bad look and if they're really doing it (this is the first I've heard of it) I hope they catch a huge amount of flack.

I don’t think there is anything that you can do.

The only reason people switch from old communities to new ones is because of a vastly better UI for your average user. See the switch from Usenet to forums to Stack Overflow / Facebook or w/e. In the case of Digg to reddit, Digg’s UI got worse.

The only thing anyone can do is make a new app/website with vastly better UI and then live through your values accordingly.

Most of your blog post is about moderation/monetization and that’s important, but to be honest, it doesn’t speak directly to your average user.
Its a good precedent to have. There are solutions to the software issue you mention. They're not perfect but for some hardware, they do work.

If the software problem ever gets solved, you WILL want to be able to replace the batteries won't you? You can and should fight both battles since they serve the same purpose.

The precedent is also good for devices other than phones.
There are orbiting and ground-based magnetic observatories whose data goes at least as far as the cosmic ray observatories. If their hypothesis is that the magnetic field is what connects cosmic ray observations to the origin of seismic activity, they could check those records.

> Why would you want to replace a battery in a useless device?

I agree with what you say, but even phones I had that became unsupported and I couldn't replace the OS in didn't become useless. They still worked.

A user-replaceable battery would be useful for them as well.
That's the beauty of regulation.

Do you find this attitude makes your life more pleasant, or does it make it that when people at a social event find out you are on the way to join them, they sigh silently and look at the ground and make a wish that you would have gotten over your reductive, sophomoric, and joyless 'everything is a transaction' philosophy because it makes you tedious?
"Hourslong negotiations with the man broke down into an exchange of gunfire, Dallas Police Chief David Brown said at a news conference Friday morning. At that point, the officers deployed a robot armed with an explosive."

That's hardly the stuff of Robocop dystopia. That seems a reasonable and proportionate response to a long siege and multiple instances of gunfire exchange in which 5 policemen had lost their lives engaging the suspect.

There’s many things we can do to address the problem without resorting to seizing all of their wealth in a single year.

1. A wealth tax of 1% (we pay property taxes today this is no different) over a wealth of $10 million
2. End share buybacks (this is just stock price manipulation to enrich shareholders)
3. Tax corporations on the profits they report to shareholders, not the IRS. If corporations want to dodge taxes with nonsense ownership structures but want to brag about their profits to shareholders then fine, we’ll use that number instead

At the end of the day we don’t need billionaires to run corporations. Amazon would be fine without Bezos, as would Tesla, etc. There’s millions of competent people that exist that can run a business without privatizing all the wealth for themselves.

Are you implying that metformin could be a tinnitus treatment?
I think for the vast majority of cases I agree. If there are public riots, the system fucked up. This doesn't mean that the public riots are directed at the appropriate solution or have correctly identified the underlying issue, it just means that something broke and that thing is serious. Almost nothing is going to lead to a public riot overnight. It is because the problem was left unsolved and the pressure built.

I'm perfectly okay if there are severe consequences for authorities who do not attempt to solve problems that cause pressure to build. If you play with a pipe bomb, you gotta be careful and attentive.
Video memory directly represented on the screen now requires you to understand considerable abstractions: opening some framebuffer device using some operating system calls, then using some other calls to map it to memory. Then knowing the parameters of the framebuffer: what is the pixel representation. What is the stride: how many pixels per row. This could be in some record from an ioctl or whatever.

This is not 1984 where you're on some 8 bit micro or IBM PC with a video buffer at a fixed address, and hard-coded format such that POKE(12345, 15) is all you need to have something show.
>It has a removable battery and has an IP67 rating so it should definitely be watertight.

Yes, there is a mechanical cover which keeps the very small battery away from moisture. The risk with these mechanical covers is that they deform under pressure and let water enter. It is difficult engineering challenge and anecdotally it didn't work that reliably.

Glueing phones makes the engineering simpler as it removes the need for any kind of screws and mechanical locking mechanism, instead all electrical conponents can be fit very tightly into the interior of the phone.

Watch makers solved this problem decades ago - there are very reasonable mechanical solutions to waterproofing. And if some limited components need to be sealed (i.e. the USB port requires special shielding) that sealing can easily exist in a device that is otherwise reasonable to maintain.

Watch maintenance has been done by skilled professionals using generic tools and (generally) generic components. Waterproofing is an excuse used to limit our ability to repair and maintain our devices and maybe because somebody didn't like the appearance of a screw face or screw cover on one side of the device.
>Flakes are like the embassies Nix sends out into the OSS world.

It's a package spec, just like debian/* and rpm/*.spec.

Every distro package ecosystem has the maintainers discuss patches with upstream.

>Remember the debian SSH packaging snafu? The application authors weren't involved.

Assuming you're referring to the 2006-2008 OpenSSL vulnerability (which affected openssh and other things), yes the openssl devs were involved. The Debian maintainer who added the bad patch asked about it on the openssl mailing list, and only added it after he got ACKs from the devs.
Sure that's not a great reason not to use something. If you want you can think of it as short for "assignments" just as "conn" is short for "connection" or "attrs" is short for "attributes". Just consider a coincidence that this shorthand has the same name as a verb.

> I don't believe federated platforms will ever become mainstream. They have a whole host of problems, not the least of which is that they're too complicated for most people to use. This platform is not, therefore, federated.

On the other hand, your centralized software will always be centralized. To me this is already a "bug" that can not be fixed.

I was put off my React Native and Flutter since they don't give a native experience and some native features. Good and fast at the start, but after a while they'll be lacking.

Kotlin multiplatform--with the business logic shared but UI native--seemed like the best bet, backed by an impressive stack and company. And KM has gained traction in quite a few companies, slowly moving shared logic to Kotlin, while keeping separate iOS, Android and web teams.

Yet I feel more companies value Flutter, or even React Native, because it allows companies to reduce the number of employees they need, and many companies will value that over than having a perfect native experience.

I can't see there being a winner anytime soon. Web-savvy companies will favour React Native, companies with native developers will move some things to Kotlin Multiplatform, companies looking to reduce head counts more than improve user experience will favour Flutter or React Native.

A lot of people claiming that the moderators are producing the content when they are more like editors in the scheme of things. Non-moderation redditors are the one producing the bulk of the content.

> There's a reason phpbb went the way of the dinosaur

my most beloved communities are still on phpbb. A "dinosaur" platform with a couple thousand tight knit members is way way more valuable than the nightmare we're seeing unfold with Reddit or any of the other social platform. When people prefer these platforms what they're really preferring is a high user count in their "community". Stable, quality, long term, online communities are better built off the major platforms.
