Tell HN: YouTube beat uBlock Origin on Firefox
When I go on YouTube, all I get is a blank page with a functioning hamburger icon, search box, and 4 placeholder icons.

When I click on the hamburger icon and go to home, videos appear on the feed. When I click on a video I get ads as if I didn't have uBlock Origin enabled.

Looks like others are facing the same issue.[0]

Interesting that this seems to be completely counter to what I hear people saying. For example, one of the top posts in r/jobs right now is titled "This is absolutely the trashiest job market I have seen in my 34 years alive."
I'll never understand those who don't want to travel to space. It's an enormous universe we live in, and here we are, on one (admittedly awesome) planet. There is a great deal to learn, and many adventures to be had! Note that this same conversation has happened many times in human history; some people are home bodies, some people crave adventure, and ne'er the twain shall meet. It's a deep-seated personality trait, and you can't reason people out of either position.

The other point (which is really why I responded) is to note that space travel isn't just for humans. Robots, especially AI-driven robots, may be able to explore and exploit our solar system far better than bio humans ever could. It would make a nice division of responsibility: we get the Earth and her unique and valuable biosphere, they get the rest of the system and it's vast resources. I believe the relationship could be deeply symbiotic and fruitful for both cultures.
To my understanding, delimited continuations and coroutines are equivalent in power. Out of curiosity, can delimited continuations be implemented as efficiently (in Rust or otherwise) as stackless coroutines?
I think you have the efficiency backwards.

When I was in university late 90s early 00s, my friends and i had all kinds of music and tv clips downloaded from p2p sharing, that I have since lost and can't find. Clips from shows, remixes of songs. Like you say, somebody must have them, but they're not findable anymore.
As I said, there must be more to this story.
The kids in my family attend a school where the parents have all verbally agreed to not get their kids a smart phone until 16. This removes the peer pressure element of owning a phone/instagram/etc. When that’s removed there is little downside and huge upsides to the kids not having phones.
I didn’t even put my car in reverse for my California test.

I failed my UK test once at 17 and passed at 26 but only just.

No, no, no.

There is no parallel to be drawn between better encryption and worse outcomes for kids. Should we also outlaw high-performance cars because these sometimes serve as effective getaway vehicles for criminals?

CSAM producers and consumers should be found and punished via old-fashioned methods. How was this done in the past? Did we just never catch any human traffickers / rapists? No, we had detectives who went around detecting and presumably kicking down doors.

To outlaw large sections of mathematics because of this is absurd. And from the amount of power it would give big governments / big businesses, the fabric of society doesn't stand a chance.
"You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain," or, for stories, "You either end the story well, or you continue telling it until you get GoT season 8."

There are almost no consequences for anyone working at a business that gets it wrong.

AFAIK, and it's hard to find the info since I don't have it handy, so I don't want to devote the searching time, but bringing it back on-topic, all disk i/o has to go through the secure enclave for encryption and decryption. i believe this is better documented on mac than iphone. the data storage is always encrypted since T2. If filevault is enabled, then the user's password gets mixed in with the T2 hardware keys. Because those keys can never leave T2, all disk i/o necessarily goes through it.

This is vastly different than how TPM operates.

The reason is that the government pays them per EV more that the cost of manufacturing the EV.

There is, but the UX is not there yet. I think it was mostly used for for easier development and contributing to the project (you don't have to use mobile emulators to test map rendering), but apparently it's now officially in "beta" state, so maybe there is some hope for better UX improvement in future.

For better or for worse, that's what Google is aiming at with ChromeOS. Especially now that the overarching "OS" is really just a Linux shell for multiple VMs.

X11 apps run under XWayland, an X server that runs under Wayland compositors, almost always by default. It's possible to run WMs under XWayland too, but most Wayland compositors are WMs and handle the WM for XWayland too.

Wayland doesn't have a single display server. Most of what was the X11 display server is moved to the kernel and libraries. So, the WMs ARE the display server.

xv, xpdf, xterm should work fine. xsnow should work, but will only see X windows. fvwm2, it can run on some Wayland compositors, but the better option here would be a compatible replacement: as far as I know, we still don't have an fvwm2 equivalent, but SwayWM exists as a replacement for i3, for example.
On reddit at least it seems like everyone under a certain age doesn't use the term at all and just calls everything, including websites, an app.

It is not about forgetting to wipe a disk. A realistic scenario is that an SSD fails in a way that it ceases to be recognized by the system. At this point, you have no way to wipe it. Still, you may be required to return it to the vendor (by the contract that gave you the discounted price in the first place) - and they can read it using their tools not available to mere mortals.
Honestly it's just so hurtful to me how confined & narrow opinions are on what the web should be, on what should be allowed, for what it can be.

This sort of stuff is so prime to me, so excellent.

There's plenty of scary platforms about, less than great sites, sure. But there is no other connected medium available for humanity.

And to let the Fear Uncertainty & Doubt - or to let IMHO pitiful pointless sad grumbling about performance - dog us down is is to miss such huge potential, to grow & expand & improve, in unconstrained & vast greatness. This sort of shit is so excellent. Yes you can. And anyone with any kind of computing device can tune in & try it. Heck yeah!

This is such a low-effort article; I tried to steel-man the argument but the analogy between ISP service and model weights are too different. To me, model weights are closest to software licenses, and applying the arguments towards abolishing of software licensing (MIT/BSD/GPL) is absurd to me. My response to an article titled "Open source authors should not police uses, no matter how awful they are" would be if you don't like the licensing terms, don't use it; if you're sufficiently motivated, author one of your own with licensing terms of your choice.

Alvarez et al., 1980 [1] was the paper that convinced most geologists that the extinction was caused by an asteroid impact [source, PhD in Earth Science]. They found a layer of clay with very high iridium concentration at the K-T boundary in multiple locations. Some asteroids have high iridium concentrations relative to the Earth's crust so an impact of a large one would leave this signal all over the Earth.

Wikipedia has an interesting timeline of theories for the K-T extinction (now called the K-P which is not as cool a name), but strangely does has a link to this paper[1].

[1]https://www.science.org/doi/abs/10.1126/science.208.4448.109...
[2]https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_Cretaceous%E2%80%9...

Paper's Abstract
Platinum metals are depleted in the earth's crust relative to their cosmic abundance; concentrations of these elements in deep-sea sediments may thus indicate influxes of extraterrestrial material. Deep-sea limestones exposed in Italy, Denmark, and New Zealand show iridium increases of about 30, 160, and 20 times, respectively, above the background level at precisely the time of the Cretaceous-Tertiary extinctions, 65 million years ago. Reasons are given to indicate that this iridium is of extraterrestrial origin, but did not come from a nearby supernova. A hypothesis is suggested which accounts for the extinctions and the iridium observations. Impact of a large earth-crossing asteroid would inject about 60 times the object's mass into the atmosphere as pulverized rock; a fraction of this dust would stay in the stratosphere for several years and be distributed worldwide. The resulting darkness would suppress photosynthesis, and the expected biological consequences match quite closely the extinctions observed in the paleontological record. One prediction of this hypothesis has been verified: the chemical composition of the boundary clay, which is thought to come from the stratospheric dust, is markedly different from that of clay mixed with the Cretaceous and Tertiary limestones, which are chemically similar to each other. Four different independent estimates of the diameter of the asteroid give values that lie in the range 10 ± 4 kilometers.
That seems new. A few months ago it was free.
Right, same. From what I hear, both tech and non-tech seem to be in roughly the same shape, i.e. getting a job is super tough in either one. The -only- field that seems to be growing, and where getting hired is kinda the way it used to be in tech as a whole before the interest rate hike, is AI.
It really doesn't make sense.

SEEKING WORK || USA registered co-op, remote OK
Tech: Javascript / Node anything (frameworks, flavors, engines), Python, deployment, hosting, etc forms of web development. Full stack, devops, integrations.

I'm a member of the software engineering co-op 508.dev LLC. We're web-environment specialized developers that as a team for previous clients have upgraded old builds to be serverless (jovono.com) and project managed, architected, and built from scratch an entire SASS frontend for a Ycombinator startup (cofactr.com).

Our site is https://508.dev. My personal resume as the founder and lead engineer is https://calebjay.com/resume.html.

We've had enough time open up to take on a new full time project, but are also happy to take a look at smaller or short-term needs, including consultancy, upgrades, or filling a dev team's gaps. There's no minimum team or project size (for now) - if you just need one dev for a little bit, let us know!

Happy to chat about work you need doing, joining our team, our somewhat unique structure as a co-op, or whatever else, at caleb@508.dev. I actually really like chatting so hit me on email about literally whatever :)
echo - command not found (maybe you're on Windows)

browse - no browser installed

edit - no editor found

See, I can do the same thing. In any case you need a toolchain installed to actually program in the language you want to program, even if that toolchain is minimal. Complaining about a toolchain not being installed for the thing you want to do is not very useful.
> You'll learn to respect the speed limit pretty quickly

Many parts of the autobahn in Germany have no speed limits and they're not seeing more accidents than, say, in France (and France highways have limits at typically 130 km/h // 80 mph). There are definitely less deaths on german limitless autobahns than on highways in the US.

FWIW if you keep only highway deaths in Europe and remove friday/saturday nights and drunk drivers, there are hardly any fatalities on highways.

Something something about kinetic energy and cars all driving in the same direction.

Speed on highways really doesn't kill much. As simple as that.
WiFi tablet / Chromebook before then say 5th or 6th grade.

I’ve 4 kids, so you can imagine that once it’s on the house, it’s in the house and anyone can access the device.

Phone with a SIM card in 8th grade.

If they create a social media account (including chess.com and TikTok) they have to “friend” us - their parents.

This is working well for us, especially on the family logistics side: shared calendaring, family iMessage thread, shared shopping lists.

I’ve also enjoyed seeing how each kid uses the device differently.
A lot of the ones I see available are 75 Hz

Also, is that 60 or 59.94 Hz? Both exist
I think you mean "EURISKO won the Traveller championship so entirely..."

In which case, yes, something like that did happen. Per the Wikipedia page:

Lenat and Eurisko gained notoriety by submitting the winning fleet (a large number of stationary, lightly-armored ships with many small weapons)[3] to the United States Traveller TCS national championship in 1981, forcing extensive changes to the game's rules. However, Eurisko won again in 1982 when the program discovered that the rules permitted the program to destroy its own ships, permitting it to continue to use much the same strategy.[3] Tournament officials announced that if Eurisko won another championship the competition would be abolished; Lenat retired Eurisko from the game.[4] The Traveller TCS wins brought Lenat to the attention of DARPA,[5] which has funded much of his subsequent work.
As a person who grew up and found very valuable social connections in online spaces, connections that helped me figure out who I am as a person, these feel very controlling and overbearing to be a bit blunt. For kids who don’t fit society’s typical mold, whether they be queer or whatever, being able to meet people who have lived their experience is invaluable.
It was such a great filesystem at the time.

There is somewhere out there a synopsis of linux filesystems from quite a while ago that describes reiserfs as no longer being actively developed as its creator is "pursuing other interests".
Apple's mitigations and their inadequacy were discussed.

> 2. Nothing prevents this, but it would be specified as a sister protocol. I haven't seen it specified, but I know that relays are doing it.

Then, how are you supposed to know how to do if it is not specified?

> 3. Websockets allows pub-sub. Clients stay connected to relays and instantly get the next message when it arrives. Polling means either lots of polling or having delays.

You can remain connected even with plain TCP (or with TLS) too. But, if you only want to send or receive a single message (rather than waiting as new messages arrive), then HTTP would also do.

> I also started a nostr-like protocol back in November 2022 based on my gripes with it.

I use alpaca.markets to script my stuff in Python. I’ve never made money but it’s fun. I use tdameritrade api for options. Interactive brokers makes you oauth every day so that kinda sucks.
Very cool!

Can you share anything about the implementation? What was the hardest part about it.
For any signed message, there is only ONE public key that could have generated that signature. You either know that key, or you don't. The network can either deliver or help you discover the key, or not. That's way different from trusting a third party to not lie to you about authenticity or the source of the message.
If anyone wants to try things hands-on, I highly recommend the SymPy (in particular the online live shell https://live.sympy.org/ ). The `Matrix` class can be used to create matrices (lists of lists of numbers) and vectors (lists of numbers). Here is a clickable link that demos the first example rotation:
https://live.sympy.org/?evaluate=A%20%3D%20Matrix(%5B%5B0%2C...

For more info about SymPy, see section "VI. Linear algebra" in the SymPy tutorial I wrote https://minireference.com/static/tutorials/sympy_tutorial.pd... (also available as notebook https://github.com/minireference/sympytut_notebooks/blob/mas... )
That’ll be cool. I would love it for my kid to do that. So learn new skills.
Mostly the urge to explore and to learn. Partly a desire to preserve the knowledge and culture that humanity has created in the event of an extinction-level event on Earth.

Messing around in low-earth orbit, or even exploring our nearest neighbours in the solar system is like dipping our toes into a vast ocean. It's a first step on a much bigger adventure, an adventure that won't happen in our lifetimes.

It may seem impossible now, but crossing oceans in sailing ships, let alone aircraft, will have seemed impossible once.
Can anyone summarize how this works. Guessing Audacity is some C++ program. How did they take all the dependencies and make them work on browser, using WASM? What about the frontend? Is the UI just completely re-written?

Question rises to me: what good could us offer to this AI?
There is always a text editor and browser available on any OS, yes even on Windows.
Regardless of what rules we choose, one thing I don't see here in the comments much is the practice of setting a good example for your kids. Kids can easily identify hypocrisy. A parent can't tell their child to not get addicted to a smartphone if the parent himself is addicted to a smartphone. So as parents we set ground rules for our own conduct before even thinking about policy for the child: We should not sit there mindlessly scrolling, especially in front of the child. If we need to use the phone for some task, take it out, do the task, and show the child that you're using the smartphone as a tool to accomplish something, not for passive consumption.

If you limit your kid's screen time to some arbitrary amount that you yourself cannot even achieve, you're transparently sending the message that you're full of shit and kids know when you're full of shit.
I think the closest I come to a "yes" would be a sort of underlying feeling of nihilism. The universe is big; life is short. That kind of thing.

But if I had a kid and e.g., watched that kid become a climate refugee, I think I'd regret my decision to make that kid.
