Actually it is quite high level (with the GC extension even "higher" than C), not comparable to "real" assembler. It has types. It isn't fun writing WAT, but for small stuff it's perfectly doable.

That's a record with 3 fields, its constructor and getters using the GC extension:

;; A `struct` with 3 fields, all immutable.
(type $testStruct
(struct
(field $first i64)
(field $foo f32)
(field $baz f64)))

;; Constructor. `ref` is a reference
(func $mkTestStruct
(param $a i64) (param $b f32) (param $c f64) (result (ref $testStruct))
(struct.new $testStruct (local.get $a) (local.get $b) (local.get $c)))
(export "mkTestStruct" (func $mkTestStruct))

;; Getter function for the three fields:

(func $getTestStruct1 (param $rs (ref $testStruct)) (result i64)
(struct.get $testStruct 0 (local.get $rs)))
(export "getTestStruct1" (func $getTestStruct1))

(func $getTestStruct2 (param $rs (ref $testStruct)) (result f32)
(struct.get $testStruct 1 (local.get $rs)))
(export "getTestStruct2" (func $getTestStruct2))

(func $getTestStruct3 (param $rs (ref $testStruct)) (result f64)
(struct.get $testStruct 2 (local.get $rs)))
(export "getTestStruct3" (func $getTestStruct3))
> and it's running out

In a "it is literally possible to extract all of it and it will escape to space" sense, yes. But in a practical "humans are anywhere remotely close to exhausting helium deposits on Earth" sense, no. The "we are running out helium" thing was never real.
Demo sounds don't play on iOS.
Morally they do, yes. And even legally they probably do, there have been some cases of successful legal action. But not enough of these to matter to the point that you could say that Kickstarter initiators are structurally on the hook, rather the opposite.

Morally the backers also have obligations: they should research the initiators, but almost nobody ever does. They should reflect on the feasibility of the proposal, but instead the 'it would be great to have this' feeling combined with 'wow, that's cheap, they can't possibly make it for that kind of money so let's back this' is a near certain path to disappointment.

Kickstarter is the main party that has obligations but they disavow all of these and obviously they have the legal backing to ensure they are not on the hook for any of this. On top of that they keep backers structurally in the dark about the risks.

Edit: a short afterword: I've had many, many requests to do a Kickstarter for the Lego sorting machine. I could have raised millions of $ with ease for this project. And I didn't do it. The reasons why are because I know the difference between making a prototype and making something aimed at the general public, I realized that people's expectations of delivery are unrealistically high because there are a lot of unknowns in a project like that and finally that I would not want to risk my reputation and existing business on a project like that. But not all Kickstarter initiators have that much experience in industry and even if they self evaluate to 'I can do this' it may simply not be true in practice. This is the bulk of the Kickstarters that fail on the delivery. To then demand the money back would put these people in a hole that they won't recover from for the rest of their lives. So the default should be: project fails, backers lose their $ because the same thing that allows Kickstarters to succeed is what would put the initiators of failed projects in the poorhouse: it's $50 for you but $50,000 for the initiator (or more) and once that money is sunk it is not recoverable.

> If we're going to arbitrarily require a competence test for all voters under 25, then I say we should also mandate a competence test for all voters over age 65

I would agree that this is a prima facie good idea. I would say that it would be a prima facie good idea for all ages.
Under sensible regulation you wouldn't get to blame a third party here. You would have signed a contract with your vendor to give you updates in line with what the regulation demands, and your insurance company would cover your liability if the vendor goes out of business and you have to pay through the nose to replace them or settle a class action lawsuit. Your expenses would go up and those would be passed on to the consumer, but everyone cheering for this regulation is OK with that. Hopefully the marginal cost of insurance and better vendors would be only slightly above the cost of providing this kind of long term support.
Your examples are situations were deregulation/lack of regulation caused problems. Without regulations, prayer didn't work out so well. We all know IoT security is a problem, but after decades of that problem existing prayer hasn't worked there either. No one person's vote can fix government but collectively we have the option to enact change. I'll take having the ability to make changes over being powerless to make changes every time.
Flash ROM comment noted. It would be bad if getting a label required a manufacturer to do something objectively anti-user.
Author here! the project is super new. alpha, at best.

Basically if you wanted to build browser extensions using modern stack, bedframe lets you do that. Specifically it uses Vite under the hood so you can write e.g. a chrome extension in e.g. React w/ TypeScript, Tailwind, and all that good stuff.

I think the CLI readme has a bit more useful info: https://github.com/nyaggah/bedframe/tree/main/packages/cli

The notable bit is the mvp.yml workflow you get in your project. It'll let you publish to chrome, firefox and edge automatically (ci/cd).

> It's also very unclear what state this project is in.

fair enough! Wanted to get something out there first; I'll get the docs out soon
I appreciate what you do if you really do deliver that, but plenty of FIs are happy to mandate things like Trusteer Rapport and I would anticipate that sector to jump onto WEI just as fast as media companies will. It's going to be sold to execs as a zero operational cost lightswitch solution to preventing account hijacks.

Up until about a year ago one major core provider had been using the password 'money' for all their client accounts, many of which were domain admins since that is a 'just make it work' button and they cannot actually tell you what privs their service accounts need. When we asked the clients to press them on it, we determined via cracking that they had changed it to 'monet' as a workaround. The standards for excellence are SO LOW.
Right.

Imagine you are a terraform provider developer that is working on making sure their code is working with `opentf`.

Lets imagine opentf does an initial `v1.0.0` release of their code and your provider doesn't work. But you know it worked with the last FOSS release of `terraform`.

What do you do?

You find the common ancestor between these two projects, lets say 8a085b427b74ce3829500a59508b77465f1bbef0 (as that is the last commit `opentf` has from `terraform`).

You will now run `git bisect` on the history between `8a085b427b74ce3829500a59508b77465f1bbef0` and `v1.0.0`.

You will do a binary search on the 100-200 commits here, and everytime the source fails to build, or the test suite doesn't pass for whatever reason, you are making it much harder for the downstream provider to figure out why their code doesn't work.

You can easily just try do this today and see what happens. Does the current untidy git history cause you any problems?
I'd like to think we won't have any use for natural gas in the not-too-distant future.

I used Wingo (https://github.com/BurntSushi/wingo) for a while and it did the floating/tiling mix pretty well.

I also used StumpWM (https://stumpwm.github.io/) for years, primarily in purely-tiling mode. The killer feature for me was that you (the user) define frames on the desktop, and then windows are placed into frames rather than resizing and re-jiggering everything whenever a new window opens.
Yes, they do. I have Fujinon 16mm f/1.4 that allows you to switch to manual focus mode on lens and have depth of field for apertures and distance markers, so you can pre-focus in advance.
Kinda suspected this.

AWS created OpenSearch, not OpenES.
I think "it" meant helium? But regardless we may reduce our natural gas extraction significantly in the future.

Even if there's plenty left in the ground.

So I'd imagine that reduction of extraction would also reduce access to helium.

I just read age appropriate books to my kids and figure they'll eventually read on their own. The strongest predictor of whether or not a child will go on to read for pleasure is just having books around. If they don't want to, well, whatever.
> Firefox uses it's own CA store and installing your own is trivial. Ever tried to just open URL with your cert? The ui for certs isn't nice, but you can still view them in 'about:certificate'

Not on Firefox for Android, it just makes me download the file. You can do it of course; just go to Settings > About Firefox > Tap the Firefox logo seven times > Go back > Secret Settings > Toggle "Use third party CA certificates".

about:certificate shows me a bunch of buttons to export certificates, but there's no disabling or importing from that screen.
A local nas requires much higher upfront costs, I would need space to put it, and it requires much more ongoing maintenance and whatnot. If you factor the cost of my time it probably doesn't really work out as cheaper.
razor1911 never started owning it when they made the crack, so, fair.
The distinction is easy. If you're using the 'zpool' binary, you're operating on the pool. If you use the 'zfs' binary, you're operating on the dataset.
The way you carry yourself and the energy you give off matters more than your looks.

You sound bitter. That’s an unattractive trait. Your emotions are genuine and shouldn’t be ignored, but you need to process them in a healthy way, let go, and move on.

A good therapist is priceless for this. Easier said than done, though. It took me 4 attempts over a few years to find the right one.

Hey Bruce!

I'm talking more about how they thought they were going to interact with customers w/ a design language no one seemed to want to use. I think we agree on that; NO ONE seemed to be asking for Rocket / Scala / Chisel / Firrtl and it seemed odd that every time a potential customer asked for Verilog, they kept pushing Chisel.

But now that they're not pushing the core designer, how are they justifying their multiple? They're no longer a SaaS play, they're an IP design play which makes it a lot more difficult to hit the rule of 40.

But Intel famously passed on the $2B offer, which means they have to do something to convince someone out there they ARE worth whatever their post-money, round F valuation is lest the round C investors lose money and the round A investors not make as much money as they had hoped.

And yes $175m is less than ARM spends to design a core, but that's not what the $175m round F was for. Or at least I hope it's not what it's for, 'cause if they did sink it into designing a core that's just now on par with ARM's a72 (or was the recent goodness supposed to be on par with the a77?) from 4 years ago, what's the motivation for using a RISC-V core instead of an ARM core?

"We're as good as ARM was 4 years ago" isn't a great marketing slogan.

Your information about the details of the OpenSilicon spin-off must be better than mine. "Huge" profit is not what I heard. But neither of us were in San Mateo when that happened.

I would LOVE to be able to buy a part that lets me test any of the recent cores (I mean for less than $100,000.) Or I would love to hear about any customers using the new cores. It shouldn't be that hard to find a reference customer.
Ooof!! It is an... interesting time right now in extensions land. The switch from MV2 to MV3 is a bit chaotic but hopefully tools like this (Bedframe) and tools like [Plasmo](https://github.com/PlasmoHQ/plasmo) start to inject some freshness in the space.
700k pdf pages is not a lot. Also, you might be a business serving other businesses and indexing their documents and at reasonable (again, not google scale), 700k pages is again not a lot.

Another way to look at 700k pages is 2333 300 page books.

> Even if the owner can't control exactly what is in an update, they absolutely MUST be able to control when an update occurs.

+1 for this at the consumer level. My oven may have a critical update, but - for right now - *nothing* is more critical than finishing dinner. I'll let the update apply the day after thanksgiving when I'm doing the dishes.

There are a few connected appliances brands that do this well: updates are broken down into two classes - "critical/security" updates and "all the other updates" - and I get to pick from "do nothing, notify, notify and download, notify, schedule/auto-apply" for both channels. Unfortunately this is not common because it takes planning and more than the bare minimum to pull off.
This is fair, but I think it is a minor difference. However the shock-and-awe is driving things to better behaviors so it works. I am sure the delivery worker tried a a lot of different things first.

If you would like to take over this project, you are welcome to do so. Please fork it and develop the fork for a while. Once there has been 6 months of reasonable activity, please contact Nikolaus@rath.org and I'll be happy to give you ownership of this repository or replace with a pointer to the fork.

I saw that there are some semi-active forks focusing on different aspects: a rust rewrite, a persistent cache support version, or a bug fixing only version.

The issue is that most software has bugs and vulnerabilities which has not been discovered yet while the software is not maintained. It means the problems will exist without a solution for the future. Open source software maintainers have been a significant part of our overall IT environment [0] but voluntary contributions are subject to human resource limits. SSHFS is one of those projects relying on a single maintainer which has ended up being archived. The packages on many distributions repositories are stuck as is. The several semi-active forks are also owned by a single person without a proper community. I'm not sure if any of the distro communities would pick one of those and package it to be the next version.

So, the users of these software on their own, with the single, cross platform, ultimately portable packaging solution: the source code.

The biggest issue is that the developer needs to opt in, the user can't decide "my email client should trust this certificate".
Healthier gut biome, people pay for this stuff.
Point was, what should be a civil matter is a criminal matter instead. With jail.
Yeah, that's were becomes expensive again. Good foto printer either cost a fortune, a fortune for ink or both. Well, still cheaper than printing externally.

Printing well so seems to be a bit of an art so. Selecting the right paper for the printer and foto, doing some trails... A bit like developong and printing in a darkroom, from the looks of it. Not that I have a lot of experience, I need to save the money for the printer first...
Now imagine the pizza shop put you in a race with another delivery driver, and the loser was going to be banned from delivering and making that extra money.

This is an old thread, but I just saw your response. I think fitness is a fine goal instrumentally, and way better than just buying crap you don't need, but ultimately your six pack abs are still another trinket or token. The question is what your purpose is. For some people, their main purpose is bringing up the next generation. Others try to build big things. Others try to discover something new. Others want to help create or perpetuate useful organizations. Others want to glorify God.

Now all of that said, if you want your six pack abs so that you can attract a wife so that you can start a family, great. If you want to be fit so that you'll live longer and with more energy so that you can accomplish other things, also great.

My general feeling though is that due to a bunch of changes in the modern world, people have lost outlets for a sense of purpose in their lives, and this is leading to major psychological problems.
A No-CD crack might not be transformative enough to warrant copyright protection as derivative work in the US. But they could sue in a jurisdiction that is more likely to give them a favorable outcome. Handling of derivative works and the minimum threshold for copyright varies considerably between countries.
Ugh. What else is out there?
Right. Presumably in that scenario both economists thought it to be at least $100 worth of entertainment to watch the other eat shit, while both also thought $100 was enough compensation to eat it. Everyone is better off.
It's the unsuspecting users that are the victim of this.
If in the past people travelled to experience warmer weather, and now they don't need to, it's possible that warmer weather may increase welfare overall. It is known but rarely publicized that more people die from cold weather than hot weather each year.

As a Boston-area resident the benefits of warmer winters outweigh the costs of hotter summers for me.
> Meaning that the Telegram server (and whoever has access to it) has plaintext access to the messages.

No, that's not really true. They use a distributed key generation system. The keys are stored in multiple jurisdictions. No telegram employee or government can decrypt the messages. All the servers would have to be compromised to reach that 'plaintext access' that you mentioned.

It's entirely relevant when your country can't control is own future, as that will extend to its citizens. Just because we're in a relatively stable period of history with regards to one nation seeking to conquer another (somewhat bucked by Russia) doesn't mean that will necessarily persist.

A well regulated and lawful country where your rights are respected both internally and internationally is a luxury of a powerful nation and a stable system of narions. The former is what I'm saying is is important with regard to growth, because the latter can't be assumed to always exist in the future.
Not COBOL itself, but Mainframes/Z systems are known for their high availability/reliability. Mainframes have many hardware redundancies that help contribute to their fantastic uptimes, despite being a single unit. One might ask why a distributed system wouldn’t be better, which is a fair question. It really depends on what you are doing. This is where the CAP theorem comes into play. For situations where data consistency is a must, mainframes are a good fit. If you look at some of the notable examples of where mainframes are used, such as VISA transactions or banking, you'll see that data consistency is critical in these situations. Building a comparable distributed system would not be an easy feat.

Mainframes, especially modern ones, are pretty cool imo. The obvious downside is the high cost, which makes them very unappealing for startups.

There was a thread last week asking why cloud hasn't killed the mainframe, which I thought had some pretty good replies: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37333837
Invoking 230 here is off-topic but reforming it the way you propose would destroy most communities, especially smaller niche ones. It will also bring down a wave of massive censorship and moderation to sites that try to continue.

In the real world when someone is a loud asshole people generally avoid them. They don't invite them to parties. They don't hang out with them. Online is no different. Communities overrun with loud assholes drive away normal users.

Again a real-world analogy: what you are proposing is that Starbucks, as a business that caters to the public, should not be allowed (by law) to eject or ban someone who comes in and starts screaming obscenities because they think it is funny. If they attempt to regulate the speech of patrons then Starbucks becomes directly liable for everything their patrons say. There are only two outcomes: Starbucks goes out of business because trolls show up and annoy people who don't want to hang out in a loud coffee shop with super annoying people who harass them... or Starbucks prohibits talking in their store to avoid liability.

I can also come up with many ways for bad faith actors to cause huge problems in your proposed scheme. Imagine a competing electric car maker paying shills to invade all the Tesla owner forums to get them shut down or harass everyone into leaving. Or imagine a rival political party doing the same. It isn't that difficult to create 100 bot accounts that flood every thread with non-spam posts that are nevertheless not useful content and not posted in good faith.

For that matter HN's posting policies would be prohibited under your own rules. It wouldn't take long for the usefulness of this site to disappear in that case.
Same, though it was painful. Took me ~6 months to go from 6-fingered pecking to full proficiency with split-keyboard Dvorak. 100% worth it, though.
