Musk is nothing more than a VC courting other VCs. He tries to pump up the stock through side shows. Like staging the self-drive features of Telsa EVs. Showing off home battery backup system on Desperate Housewives that does not economically scale [0]. Trying to make the news so people think he is more that just Mr. Money Bags.

He hires all the people that actually work on making the really cool stuff. Which most already where in the industry. They were just given the opportunity to try something Boeing and all the existing companies didn't support. High confidence number of those engineers that joined SpaceX already had ideas for a re-usable rocket system.

Even Mercades-Benz beat Tesla to market for certified self-driving. Should of really scored some of those engineers from Mercades-Benz, or the ones that handled the out-sourcing, too.

I find that, when I'm playing, I enter a state of 'flow' that I suspect might be similar to (or maybe the opposite of?) meditation - my feeling of conscious self disappears - the world is everything around the '@' symbol.

> My solution was to set up the Proton Bridge in a VM on my NAS, then used rinetd to forward incoming connections on the IMAP and SMTP ports to the bridge (which only listens on 127.0.0.1). I then set up tailscale on that box and on my phone; with that, I could connect any Android email client (I like FairEmail) to my Proton account. I was also accessing it from Linux using Claws.

That sounds like a big fraction of the complexity of a self-hosted setup.

Matrix multiplication using only addition
Hi HN, this paper is my first proper academic publication, it's on arxiv only for now--this is a pre-print--but is being considered for publication by peer-reviewed journals concurrently. Open-access journals, of course.

I'm totally disinterested in tenure or academic recognition. For my goals being a Stanford dropout is better than any other amount of academic recognition. So i don't care about journals uh prestige numbers the impact factors i know that term but anything paywalled is bad for what i do care about, which is my business, fgemm. Means Fast/Faster/Fastest GEneral Matrix-Matrix multiplication. gemm is an acronym already used in BLAS libraries, Basic Linear Algebra Subprograms, which is what most of the time n money spent on ML goes to.

I'm going to be available to answer questions insofar as i can.

Poet Jane Hirshfield, reflecting on her time at a monastery that ritualized waking up at ~0300 by splashing freezing water on one's face, said that her training was reducible to being more mindful when doing the dishes.
Yeah, I didn't think of testing and deployment pipelines. Where I work we use GitHub actions for testing, but not for deployment. And our projects are small enough that I can easily run the tests in docker on my development PC.
Which is why the first thing I do on any Windows install is disable or block automatic Windows Updates and only run them once every blue moon when I've set aside time to waste on borkage.

And before anyone says I'm in danger by running unpatched Windows:

NO.

My threat model is such that the time lost and wasted from updates breaking shit is significantly greater than the dangers posed by hypothetical threats those patches ostensibly guard against. Updates are simply and literally not worth my time and concern compared to having systems that just work every day all year long.

If I need to comply with regulations or audits or I am the target of focused attacks, then yes the scales shift the other way. But as a general, and particularly personal, concern? No, updates are a waste of my time.

Linux is even worse because I don't even need to run updates for something to break and waste my time.

I meant it earnestly! If I misunderstood, I have one other guy in here who made the same mistake. Your original comment reads like you’re against the concept of considering unpleasant counterfactuals in general.
There must be some other platform that’s better than servicenow that does the same thing.

I don’t think that’s such an irony. In FP, minding the conceptual overlap, you could conceivably name every function with a Factory suffix. After all that’s what a function does, return a thing it created. Taken to its logical extreme, one would expect far more Factory suffixes for a real program of any significant complexity. But that’s kind of a silly naming convention when every function produces a new value and there aren’t non-Factory things lurking around producing unknowable realities.
A lot of people would, yes. Our economics has allowed people who would otherwise die, to live. Medicine, food distribution, research, construction, etc.

A large portion would be fine. Maybe unhappy, maybe not, but they'd survive. Most people are completely clueless about how little "Mother" nature gives a shit. The outdoors will kill you very quickly, especially if you're alone. If you have even just a small group of people, the odds change drastically.
It is a scam
One-time pads are completely unbreakable if you use them correctly.

Using them correctly is impractically difficult for most people.

Your key has to be as long as the sum total length of all of the messages you send along that communications channel, and it has to be completely random. Reusing any key material, or having a less-than-random key, breaks the security. Losing your place in the gigantic key you're using doesn't break security, but it makes the result impossible to decrypt unless you try every possible offset within the key to see which one gives a reasonable decryption.

Therefore, someone selling a "one-time pad" security system isn't really selling a one-time pad system at all, because people wouldn't buy an email encryption solution which required them to generate, distribute, and keep their place in an impractically large key.

It's possible to come up with scenarios where a one-time pad is a good solution. Spies have used them in the past and are likely using them now. But they're impractical and they're used as a buzzword by scammers.
Putting the "crypt" in Cryptopunk.
(paragraphized/reduced verbosity)

RedHat has been trying to figure out how to both benefit from open source and also avoid helping others at the same time.. if you think of RedHat the OS as a combination of the linux kernel (worked on by many companies and individuals well beyond RedHat), tons of packages in userspace (of the millions of lines of code in these packages, probably a very very small fraction are from RedHat -- sure yes some important, some less important).

Examining the fact that RedHat in principle does some huge amount of testing of the packages and puts them all together -- lets think about that-- do they really? in many cases the upstream package maintainer(s) probably do most of that. So are they going to go build a ton of test vectors for each package and "test" them all .. I highly doubt that.. likely they have a set of tests that they do to try to hit a set of important things that "should work" and if a package happens to cause that to fail, then they roll it back. In the case that RH pushes a patch to the package maintainer -- does that mean they effectively "own" that software and people that want that updated version are trying to get stuff for "free"?

From the beginning people have questioned whether they should be able to hold back patches from other people -- in reality, they can try, but they also can't stop people from doing that same patch "somehow".. so effectively unless people can copyright a new patch to open source software and prevent others from doing that same patch, then they have no recourse.

Redhat should just lean really hard into the "support" side of things, and whatever margin exists with that, then fine. Sure, does it piss you off that other companies are making money off of your hard work, yes it does, but look at basically all of the other people who were ahead of you who you are also apparently ripping off RedHat..

What encryption keys? Fastmail doesnt offer encrypted email
Not sure what you mean by this? The 1password version is integrated using the exact same hooks/methodology as Apple's; except it isn't Apple's.
I’ve been using Skiff for just a few days. The interface looks polished, and they have e2e encryption. It’s relatively new though.
Indeed. The client could maintain a vector search table that contains "unencrypted" data from emails, but the table itself could be separately encrypted on-device to the same level of security as the rest of the iPhone/MacBook/etc (T2/TPM/HSM chip). Definitely a client problem.
It's not about what functionality is missing, it's about what's there. 250 MB to show you a list of text posts and comments? Why is it so big? What does it do to warrant that?
So, basically everything I despise about. Got it. Would stay away from it with a ten feet pole.
The receiver is first party, the rest are third-party. Intentions and roles are different.

Anyway, your argument could be extended to any E2EE protocol...

And why we still use encryption? Because we usually trust the receiver and also the receiver can suffer from the leak of the message.
Unfortunately when it comes to the masked email feature in iCloud+, there are finite number of emails they let you generate for that, which means you’ll end up sharing between services. It’s something like 150, and I can personally say I have about 500 or so right now in fast mail for different logins, and I haven’t even fully migrated yet.

I have exactly two email identities and one mobile phone number, oh and a slack handful of "POTS" (VOIP really) numbers. I run the lot myself.

VoIP - my company has a retail account with a wholesaler. I can allocate UK phone numbers at will. My wife set up a new business a few years ago and I had another phone number with distinctive ring running within 20 mins. Obviously not your usual setup. My dad and stepmum have a RasPi running their phones at home. At my place it's a VM.

email - despite the usual HN groupthink with regards email, I have been running tiny email systems as well as some rather larger ones for quite some time - decades. I do note that this does not work for everyone but for me in the UK it does. I do have access to long running static IPs and have made sure that their "reputation" is top notch.

I recently added a "vanity" domain for a friend so they can escape ISP lock in. Their surname is the same as a village in North England and some wankers had squatted on village.co.uk and wanted £25,000 for it. I advised my friend that if he registered a UK LTD with his family name then we could probably get the .co.uk by default. I registered .org.uk instead - too much faff for my friend. I set up SPF to use my family's MTA (Exim) to ensure that things tie up. A .org.uk domain costs about £6 + VAT (sales tax) hereabouts. I suggested £20 per annum as a charitable donation of his choice, in return for me running his email. He chose St Margaret's Hospice. It turns out that both my mum and his mum received end of life care from St Madge's.

I have digressed somewhat!

You do need at least two identities for safety. You mention "my domain" - do you actually run it? If not then you need another one as well. Do not, whatever you do, rely on any single hyperscaler to give a shit. The well informed user can route around damage in the cloud. It sounds like you are unlikely to run your own system(s) so have a backup plan. Remember that say FB provide a smtp service if that helps - ISTR that id@facebook.com should work. There are lots of other freeish email offerings. Just make sure you have two well known identities that those whom you care about can contact you with. You can also recommend the same advice to them.
In the annual lisp game jam it seems a lot of the submissions and the most polished ones are using fennel, which is a lisp that compiles to lua from the same creator of Janet. Then for lua (and fennel) there is high quality game engines LÖVE (2d games), TIC-80 (retro 2d), LÖVR (3d).

Sorry I did mean consultative but basically they’re invited to speak at UN run events and can carry the UN endorsement along with them.

The Wikipedia article mentions a few UN events they’ve spoken at.

This seems a bit neurotic and presumptuous to me. First of all, you can't control what others think of what you've factually done. Second of all, did you actually found anything or are you just taking time off to work on a side project with plans to return. Lastly, whichever it is, that's the way it is, what's to worry about? What would you do instead of working on your side project, and what would the hypothetical benefit be?

Anecdotally, I have an absolutely god awful employment record, and the market is also miserable. In previous layoffs, it's taken longer than a year to find a job regardless of what I'm doing during the down turn. I rarely even get a phone call back these days, but when I'm asked about what I'm doing now I say "I was laid off, and am taking time to work on some personal projects and find the next worthwhile company."
The commit graph alone? That’s gonna be missing a ton of context you’d find by reference, while doing a bisect to compare the previous reference graph, and taking notes which become so self referential they never terminate. On the bright side, now you’ll solve the halting problem!
I doubt it, esp. if you mean US newspapers; can you cite any source?

AFAIK the trend of the last 3 decades has been first Craiglist then Yahoo then FB and apps hollowed out local newspaper classified ads, especially in the US.

Here's data for 2013-2021 from US Census Service Annual Survey (SAS) for
"Breakdown of Revenue by Advertising Type: Newspapers Advertising Space - Classified Advertising for Newspaper Publishers, All Establishments" [0]. Seems to show newspaper classified revenue is seriously sliding. If we only saw the numbers for local newspapers, probably even worse.

So coming from c++ these factories are sounding a lot like compilers, how does a framework differ from a new language and standard library?

Or for that matter, an os and POSIX?

A language is just a standardized framework, and languages are created to solve general cases of specialized problems.

Sure, I don't need the python framework to do something, but if I don't care overly much about performance, why would I want to deal with manual memory management of c.

And just because c exists means we should not use c++ or rust?

Choose the right tool for the job, but starting at a high level of abstraction and working down as needed often makes a lot more sense than starting low and working up.

Maybe don't use unproven frameworks and all frameworks has a different level of provenness. yes there are some people out there that don't need anything, and can program a http server and website in assembly. But it's either a toy or fun side project if they do.

> It can't always give you the right answer, yet we do teach it and we should.

Newtonian mechanics gives unique and right answers within the domain where it applies. It doesn't apply to relativistic or quantum mechanics, but that is not relevant to high school physics.

Saying Newtonian Mechanics doesn't give correct answers is way overly pedantic.

There's not remotely enough time in high school science classes to derive much of newtonian mechanics from experiments, let alone quantum mechanics from oil drop experiments and long term experiments like testing vaccines. Heck, high school science struggles to simply teach the heliocentric model of the solar system. Most of the students don't understand what an ellipse is, and they hardly have the time to make observations over a year period to then guess at what laws govern their motions.

Most of us have an intuitive notion of NM already. I remember having the notion that if I threw a rock, it accelerated for a time after leaving my hand, before decelerating. I was disabused of that in physics class.
Not to mention that behaviors become more ingrained with age.

Joyriding and fleeing police at high speed through a city is a violent crime. He doesn't have to be convicted - they witnessed it. They told him he'd be stopped and yet he chose to endanger more people trying to escape lawful custody.

> never [...] been convicted of a crime

That's the injustice. He'd been arrested for resisting arrest just the weekend before and if they treated him properly he'd have still been locked up - unable to get himself killed.

> Whatever you say, man. It’s pretty clear what you’re doing here.

You're race baiting. You're taking something an entirely understandable reaction to violent crime that happened between two people of the same race and are distorting the facts to play it up as some systemic white supremacy despite that a whole country has been thrown into violence and people have already died for that lie.

You're trying to get people killed and stoke tensions to support your politics at home because the lives of these people (French people, sit down) are worth so little to you that it's a game.

But please, do go on about what I'm doing.

If you start viewing high and increasing housing prices as a feature of the system, and not a bug, much of the world that seems illogical starts to appear logical.

For example, "Why do the powers that be continue to restrict land use? Don't they know that it drives up housing prices?"

Instead: "Because high and stable housing prices are desirable for society as a whole, restrictions on land use are put in place in order to carefully limit the amount of supply in the system. The people, voters and institutions doing this are not stupid or malicious, but know exactly what they are doing, and do it quite well."
