I disagree. Lots of small towns have excellent train and bus connections. The idea that proper public transport only exists in and around Amsterdam is preposterous and, well, simply not true.

I agree that service to real small towns has gotten worse, and I agree that that’s stupid. But a large share of NL’s 400 train stations are in small towns too. Bus service to Tynaarlo going to shit does not mean that “public transportation time distance” is a useless, or “Amsterdam-centric” measure.

I'm not saying that the PS5 isn't a good performer for its cost. It is also clearly cost-optimized to do exactly those features without any resources wasted on extra hardware. But at the end of the day even if an equivalent desktop computer cost 5x as much the hardware and hardware architecture look identical.

Sure, this will make emulation hard right now because you don't have the huge compute advantage that you do when emulating a PS3 on modern hardware, but you shouldn't have much difficulty matching the architecture, because it already matches. Basically a PS5 emulator can look a lot more like Wine as opposed to hardware emulation like you see for NES, N64 and similar consoles which were completely custom hardware.

It isn't a new trend. It has just started to affect almost every app they make.

Shortcuts isn't even beta quality on the Mac. Podcasts, as mentioned, is awful. Music is a PITA to use unless all you want to do is stream random songs. I can't think of a single Apple app that I enjoy using.

Apple seems to focus on one use-case for their apps. Anything other than that suffers.

>Over time, Twitter ceased to be interesting as it turned into people affirming their positions on things they usually didn’t understand

The trick is to follow experts who do understand what they are on about, eg a top general on Ukraine, top scientist on covid. Having done that I find it disappointing going back to reading mainstream journalists who post with less understanding.

You have to fight a little with the recommendation algos pushing random nonsense at you but it's doable.
I remember the Gnutella vs. Gnutella 2 debacle.

That was pretty and crippled Gnutella quite badly — even though Gnutella 2 actually had similar goals as Gnutella.

That’s the historical precedent. You can learn from it and avoid such steps, or you can ignore it.

Keep in mind that Locutus does not have privacy as a goal: if it harms the original Freenet like "Gnutella 2" harmed Gnutella, then privacy on the web suffers.

Just asking the question is absurd.

If TikTok executives won't acquiesce to government demands, they will be charged with a crime and replaced with others who will.

Obtaining the information is at most a mere formality --- and the current executives know this. Any suggestion otherwise is just a ruse for western consumption.
Correct, and the article itself stated the conversion (DP source to HDMI sink) is very easy. Still, I can see laptops choosing the most popular port regardless of the possible conversion. Anecdotally when I go to work the cables I see are mostly HDMI. (This is where I’d love to have a Framework-like laptop, where I could just swap between HDMI and DP output with the relevant output module).
People on HN like to talk about how Web3 and blockchain has no applications. For people around the world, self-sovereignty over money / savings and trust in a system are important applications even in and of themselves.

We have seen over the last decade how technology has also increased centralized control, starting with social networks, and now governments are looking to put their money supply under centralized control. In some countries, like China and Sweden, this “integrated reality” is already here.

If we all agree to use National IDs and centralized money supplies, then all of us will be brought under central control. And while one administration may not do anything too bad with that control, future administrations or AI may very well begin to move people as pieces on a chessboard, for whatever outcome they want to achieve. They can do it secretly, or subvert levers of democracy to continue it openly.

Thoughts? What is the alternative to the coming centralization of control?

How To Force The 'true' Command To Return 'false'
Yes, there is a generation number in the reference. It is checked against the generation number of the allocation that is stored in the allocation:

void __check(GenerationalReference genRef) {
uint64_t currentGeneration = *(uint64_t*)((char*)genRef.alloc - 8);
assert(genRef.rememberedGeneration == currentGeneration);
}

So indeed you it allows you to check for a match, as long as the alloc pointer is valid. The alloc pointer is invalid after a free, because it maybe be in a region no longer accessible to the program (it was returned to the os by free's implementation) or it was given out as part of an other allocation, in which case it can hold arbitrary data.
> Laptops, even those marketed as "mobile workstations", really can't compete with a proper desktop-experience

But that's what I've found remarkable about the MacBook Pro 16 with the M1 Max. It absolutely does replicate a desktop computing experience with smooth performance... and it does it even on battery power. As I said in my other post I've just never seen anything like it. It's beyond benchmarks to have an experience that just never hiccups or stalls on a laptop.

> A major point for me is that I treat my laptops and portables as though they could/will go missing the next day

You might need to recognize that you're the outlier in these conversations, then. The world has largely moved to laptops. Only those that truly need a desktop are issued one these days (and again, with the Max / Pro chips, even the need should be called into question for most use cases). Especially with hybrid work policies, I can't really imagine any modern corporate office issuing you a big old tower on your first day.

> Microsoft investigations determined that Storm-0558 gained access to customer email accounts using Outlook Web Access in Exchange Online (OWA) and Outlook.com by forging authentication tokens to access user email.

> The actor used an acquired MSA key to forge tokens to access OWA and Outlook.com. MSA (consumer) keys and Azure AD (enterprise) keys are issued and managed from separate systems and should only be valid for their respective systems. The actor exploited a token validation issue to impersonate Azure AD users and gain access to enterprise mail. We have no indications that Azure AD keys or any other MSA keys were used by this actor. OWA and Outlook.com are the only services where we have observed the actor using tokens forged with the acquired MSA key.

At high end production nodes it is impossible to get an entire wafer free of defects. Chips, let alone wafers, already include circuitry to disable parts of themselves if those parts have defects. Cerebras must have spent a ton of effort on getting this done for a full wafer. You also have problems like variability at the wafer level which you're less sensitive too when you put thousands of chips on a single wafer rather than just one, since they cover a smaller area.

Look at how successful AMD's chiplet strategy has been. Chiplets sidestep the yield problems. Wafer scale amplifies them hundred or thousand fold.

Nothing in the industry is designed to work with wafer scale products, so everything has to be custom made. Yes this is a chicken-egg problem, but it's going to be expensive to get any sort of momentum. The silicon industry is extremely conservative.

It's sexy and enticing. If someone can make it work that's awesome. I will remain skeptical though.
>She might be a talented pop star, but surely she has encountered spreadsheets at some point in her life? For example: checking over notes from her accountant, planning tours, purchasing houses, reviewing marketing plans for album launches, etc.

Put together by other people who work for her. All she likely has to do is glance at it for a second and move on. She might have seen those spreadsheets, but she doesn't have to know that it's 'Microsoft Excel' nor how they function. And when you're at the level she is (or was) at, I'd even argue that you have less exposure than a glance when it comes to that stuff - your team will brief you and not necessarily bother showing it to you.

>Also, does not knowing about Excel also imply that she's never heard of Microsoft Word? That seems too farfetched.

This is where HN often falters - assuming average Joes/Janes or people not in tech know more about tech than they actually do. I'd wager that you'd be surprised at the number of people who don't know what Microsoft Word/Excel are.
I've read several such LKML threads about bcachefs and while the discussions have been contentious (and Kent could stand to chill out a bit), everyone has been in agreement that they'd like to see bcachefs succeed and be merged. The major technical blockers have been addressed or are being addressed.

Bcachefs also has plenty of features which ZFS does not, so I don't see why you're so critical.

Oracle could relicense ZFS at any time, or make an explicit statement about its legal status. They have not done so after 10 years.

What are you monitoring your monolith for? For microservices you can monitor specific metrics related to the exact function, and perform health checks, scaling events accordingly.

For monoliths you cant be as specific. “Is the response a 500” doesn’t really cut it. “Average request latency” for scaling doesn’t cut it when some of your queries are reads and then some are completely unrelated mass joins.

They specifically mention 3 distinct DP connectors - standard, mini, USB-C - plus a bunch of Apple versions of them. That's NOT a feature and is exactly why I prefer HDMI. I don't care about most DP capabilities, I just want to plug in my stuff and have it work. I use 55" 4k TV for a monitor and it works, even with the open source AMD driver. I saw nothing in TFA to make me think DP would benefit me, even if some technical details are better.
>> but do not forget the apparent point in the original poster's is the lacking approach below the implementations of above said techniques.

That's right. I think the approach that is lacking is best explained in the submission guidelines for the Journal of AI Research:

>> Papers describing systems should clearly describe the contributions or the principles underlying the system. Papers describing theoretical results should also discuss their practical utility. In general, it should be clear how the work advances the current state of understanding and why the advance matters. Papers should report on what was learned in doing the work, rather than merely on what was done.

https://www.jair.org/index.php/jair/about/submissions

Doing stuff is not science, even if it's doing stuff that's never been done before. In science, we experiment to understand why stuff can be done, and how, not just that it can be done. And of course it matters what is being done, so for example experimenting to find the best combination of spices for a dish is not an instance of science.
I certainly like all those features, but would rather have them in a digital form.

I want to download the media to my hard drive, store it on my NAS, back it up in any way, and be able to install it from those sources whenever I want.

I also want licenses to be maintained outside of walled gardens using digital signatures, which I can also maintain my own copy of. As long as I present my license file along with signed game media, I want my console or PC to be able to run that game.

I should also be able to lend, sell, and trade the digital license to anyone along with a copy of the media.

Not to mention that the ribbon itself is collapsible, so if you unpin it, it hides nicely like a menu bar and when you click an item it shows the sub-items as if it were a traditional menu list from 2000, only horizontal instead of vertical.
yes, but they also don't have the constraint that there can only be one version of a given dependency installed. So once you solve the dependencies for one package you have a solution for any combination of packages, unlike with traditional linux package managers.
Serverless is too broad a category to say things like "it's too complex". For example, if you already know docker, you can use google cloud run and just deploy the container to it. You then just say "I want to allow this many simultaneous connections, a minimum of N instances, a maximum of M instances, and each instance should have X vcpus and Y gb of ram".
I think its too easy to ascribe motivations to individuals here. These fish eat their young, it's hard to reconcile that with any sense of group.

Mail is not hard to self-host. There is a one-time setup toil you need to just sit down and get past, but then… it just sits there working. I’ve self-hosted Email for over a decade, on a $5/mo Linux VPS running Debian, exim, and dovecot. Multiple domains, multiple users, SSL, SPF, DKIM, the works. Since Email doesn’t cost anything in terms of computing load, I do light duty web hosting from the same box. $5 a month to not have to rely on the graces of megacorps to function on the internet.

Even if you’re scared of Linux and writing exim.conf, there are more or less turnkey docker containers out there and whatnot too. I can’t recommend one because I think docker is pointless for a single host running a few applications.
Using a decent IaC framework such as Serverless Framework or the CDK instead of the AWS CLI would make the deployment pretty easy.

Something like this [0]. The point would be to force clients to deliberately circumvent the restrictions, which I believe would give them more standing to go after 3rd party clients that attempt this.

Worth noting that most browsers don’t support token binding yet, but this has been in the works for awhile, so I’m mentioning it here for illustrative purposes. They could theoretically implement something less airtight but with the same general goal.
