You know how (to use a familiar field) most of software development has become going through the motions, churning massive insecure bulk, doing nonsense rituals and making up myths about process and productivity, hopping jobs frequently, cutting corners and breaking rules, etc., and the purpose is usually not to produce trustworthy solutions, but only to further career and livelihood/wealth?

With everything we've been seeing in recent years on HN, about science reproducibility and fraud, and the complaints about commonplace fudging and fraud that you might hear privately from talking with PhDs/students in various fields... I wonder whether science has developed a similar alignment problem.

How many people in science careers are doing trustworthy science? And when they aren't, why not?
Yup, you sure did.
My impression is that it’s in the same space as RedShift, Snowflake, Citus, Greenplum, ClickHouse.

As someone on the outside looking at GraalVM with curiosity, is it even possible to use something like Poetry to manage the Python part? Would you do that? Would I even need a venv anymore? Where would its edges be? What are the limits?

How are we people practically putting this polyglot stuff into action?
The justification to the European "scramble to Africa" is that they could. Claims were also starting points for negotiations among European countries based on relative power and perhaps give and take in other domains or geographical areas.

Historically, and to a point up to this day, territorial claims are a power play. Either you're powerful enough to enforce them (through possession, defence, threats) or you are not. And the justification to seeking territory is of course to increase power and resources.
Probably why the actual cover is an offset crop.
And I would say T-Mobile not only doesn't understand the threats after their many data breaches, they have continuously failed to improve Cybersecurity.

They have an incredibly crusty, buggy billing system written in PowerBuilder, and I swear it's a holdover from the Voice stream days

I worked a short while at Mindgeek (The pornhub holding company) and it was the first time I had every faced the internet without adblockers in a very long time. (Most of the work I was doing involved ads themselves.)

Both of those are on the same order as "a bad cold" in terms of health - they are straightforward to treat and are not at all a big deal.
That has nothing to do with quantum resistance.
Indeed, this struck me as weird, and so I went and re-read the Japan chapter. In which he also explains why metadata is more important than data, which this article later also completely ignores.

Since this website otherwise seems to be well-done, has been repeatedly popping up on HN, and related HN discussions seem to have an influx of pro-NSA new accounts :

I'm afraid that I must entertain the possibility that the website itself is owned by the NSA, and the best thing to do is to ignore information on it, however well it might be presented. (I do not think that I'm smart enough to prevent a NSA team from tricking me.)
I figured it was only a matter of time before lawsuits/charges were brought against the parents.

There's been little info coming out about the role his parents played, until very recently. There's this for example [1]

Seems that his parents were very connected and used their connections to open doors for Sam/FTX. His father for sure was helping steer the company side from a legal standpoint, and his mother was helping on the political side (donations).

My armchair psychological assessment is that this is just another case of well connected elites becoming true believers in their own view of the world, and, combined with blind faith in their son who was the golden child, they followed it through to it's logical conclusion. I'm sure they're just as stunned as Sam is that it all came crashing down.

Not sure "world view bubble" is a thing, but something like that sort of explains the times we live in. People disconnected from reality, surrounded by other people disconnected from reality, doubling down on their own self-assuredness.

You can always build with clang, it doesn't support this feature.

A desire to support clang is ubiquitous enough nowadays that weird stuff like this is getting ripped out of most active open source projects.
But the exponential cost (the need to describe the "whole") is there in the classical case too.

To describe a set of classical bits completely, you need a probability distribution over the whole system (including possible classical correlations induced by the crosstalk that OP spoke about). That probability distribution is a stochastic vector that has 2^n real positive components if we have n bits.

To describe a set of qubits completely, you need at least a "quantum probability distribution", i.e. a ket that has 2^n complex components (I am skipping the discussion of density matrices).

Both the classical and quantum description of the bits requires exponentially many real numbers. This exponential behavior on its own is not enough to the explain "quantum computational advantage". The exponential behavior is well known in plenty of classical contexts (e.g. under the name "curse of dimensionality") and classically solved with Monte Carlo modeling.

Scott Aaronson's lecture notes cover that quite well.

At the end, the issue of crosstalk is modeled in a very similar way in the quantum and classical case, and if it forbids the existence of a quantum computer, it should forbid the existence of classical ones as well. In both cases it is the use of linear binary (or stabilizer) codes that solves that issue.

Unfortunately they possessed Canadian citizenship, making them Canada's problem. That's the unfortunate reality of having one of the world's most lax immigration systems and an embarrassingly low bar for citizenship.
I remember crossing from France into Spain and back again somewhere in the early 80's, when Europe definitely still had physical borders and not realizing I had done so until it had happened. My surprise stemmed in part from the fact that on the map there was a clear line and in real life there was absolutely nothing at all. It really helped me to understand once and for all that maps are just pieces of paper and that it's the real world that counts. Of course a days walk further where the highway entered Spain you'd have been stopped and asked for your passport. But high up in the countryside nobody really cared about where precisely that border was, the path is then on this side of the border and a little while later on the other. And this was at a time when the Basque separatist movement was very active with regular bombings. So the lack of a border and associated controls was in a way something that you wouldn't expect at all.

Now, with Schengen in full effect all over Europe crossing a border is something that usually involves seeing some buildings without a purpose in the middle of a highway. The only time I have been stopped inside the Schengen area for document checks was during the COVID era and it felt pretty weird not to be able to just go from Amsterdam to Riga without such checks.
Here's the thing: I think it's a bad idea to try it out, because I can already see in the pricing tiers that if I would like Graphite, I cannot afford it for my team because of the pricing structure.

I work for a startup that is less than 3 years old and has ~90 employees of which ~50 are software engineers and data scientists (people writing code). We're VC funded and not profitable yet. When I see a pricing tier called "Enterprise", I do not expect to fall under that tier as a small, young company. But looking at the limits of the Team tier, we would probably not fit under that tier because we have more than 30 repositories. We also use Github Enterprise (cloud version), which puts us in your Enterprise tier as well.

If the Team tier is already $30/user/month, I'm afraid to even learn what the Enterprise tier is like. I guess we're not your target audience and that is okay.

Here is when I would consider paying for your product: remove the repo limit (or make it much bigger) and half the price. That would make it affordable and more in line with the other tools we're paying for.

The Disney+ Group Watch Alternative: Why You Should Switch to Kosmi
How do you stop people from making deepfakes and sharing them on decentralized or end to end encrypted chats that are easy for anyone to use? Facebook bans sharing copyright movies, and yet every teenager can share them anyway. Also doing this is even perfectly legal in some countries we share the internet with. It is -impossible- to to deploy universal censorship without shutting the internet down.

Do you really suggest we abolish the right to privacy and anonymous speech in order to support the type of universal censorship you propose?

I agree with this. My concern only applies if the classical crypt gets deprecated or new solutions use PQC exclusively using widespread hybrid use as an argument for trust.
I assume you’re not proposing some kind of interference limit in principle?

Are you suggesting that limiting interference will be a practical dead end that is prevents advancement?

Either way that would be a pretty significant claim. There are lots of research directions being pursued and plenty of smart people think it’s worth trying.
I don't know the specifics, but I can only imagine Google is too big to have a single "thought leader" at this point. The many layers of middle management that are already implemented are probably the source of a lot of this. It is shocking to hear the higher ups saying this stuff, but I don't think swapping them out would change much.

Most of the online resources related to medical device cybersecurity are from companies selling solutions.

Are there examples of high-quality independent blogs, resources for medical device professionals to refer to educate themselves?
For those, I would only connect them to a bank account with a relatively small amount of money in it.
Anyway, interesting idea. As another comment pointed out, I wish there was an easy way to mount NFS and 9p shares as a user.

I've been toying with 9p+Wireguard lately, as an alternative to SMB/Webdav/sftp/etc for sharing files with friends over the Internet. Wireguard+NFS works well enough, but it's relatively hard to integrate in userspace. Toying with rust-9p[1], I obtained acceptable performance. I still have to experiment with putting Wireguard in userspace as well (probably with Tailscale's implementation), but I come back to the difficulty of mounting 9p and NFS shares as a user. I also wish it was simpler to export directories over both protocols, on an unprivileged port, with access rights limited by those of the user.

Regarding the article content, I find 9p to be even simpler and probably more ubiquitous than NFS, though I don't know if MacOS and Windows natively support it.

NATS (https://nats.io/) is another option, though I'm not sure if it's still considered a viable Kafka replacement.
To an extant yes, but another example where it seemed forces more than men moved things was Verdun. Halfway through the battle both the Germans and the French generals commanding the armies wanted to pull out because it was so horrible, but the Germans were so close to a victory they couldn't pull out after all the blood that had been spilt being so close to victory, meanwhile the French couldn't give a single inch of ground for doing so would mean the loss of Verdun, which was a monument of national pride, and so for three hundred and three days below the sun the battle carried, father and son fell one by one.

The war is replete with similar examples, and sure we can call it mythos or ideology or something like that, but it is clear there were times in the war that even had the generals and the populace wanted things to be different it was near impossible to change and men continued thrown into the meat grinder.
Please don’t misunderstand. Most countries (all that I am aware of) apply their laws to all people within their territory and to their citizens globally. The Indian Law in question applies to non-Indian citizens outside India. That is a big difference.
I'm surely a giant racist. Nobody falls for that stuff anymore. If you want to understand why our politicians are acting a given way, you look at their key coalitions. In this case, there is a direct cause between the PM defecting from a close relationship with India's PM Modi, and who he needs to show alignment to in response to a political crisis affecting that community.
One thing I dislike about this decision is, that it conflates the limitations for third parties repairing an iPhone with the ability to repair a device at all. Yes, in an ideal world it would be easy and cheap to repair a device. Good points have been raised in the discussion, why this might be limited by necessity. Like theft-protection and just technical questions of calibration of part.

But from an environmental perspective, it makes a huge difference whether something can be quickly repaired or not. Who can do the repairs is an important question, but it is secondary to the first. I am not happy with iFixit not distinguishing bad repairability and having to go to Apple for a repair.

I find it ok to withdraw like one point for the tie-in to the manufacturer, but the new score puts it on a level with devices which just have to be thrown away.

This is also a disservice to the customer, as while the Apple prices might be quite high, they seem to be related closely to how difficult a certain repair is to do. Improvements there are a benefit to all customers. The new scoring system hides this and actually reduces the pressure onto the manufacturer to improve repairability.
> Subscriptions to the NYT, WSJ, Economist and the FT would cost a fortune, and I would read a minute fraction of the content. As a result I don't have subscriptions for any of them, and none of them get a penny from me.

I would question whether that is actually the economically rational choice. Even if you read only a fraction of the content, the value you receive from the fraction you do read may still justify the cost. You probably only watch a fraction of all videos on Netflix yet still don't mind paying for it.

Also, there is a positive value in supporting a journalistic institution because you also derive benefit from other people reading their articles because it means you get to live in a better-informed world.

Either way...

Now you're talking micropayments[0]. People have also been trying those startups since the 90s. They have basically all failed. There is Twitch Bits, I guess, but I don't know how often that's used or whether I'd call the kinds of content that Twitch's structure incentivizes to be a good thing.

Not all problems can be solved with technology. Or, at least, with technology that only works if you assume that humans are rationally economical spherical actors in a vacuum.

> One is smart messaging; dumb clients. The other is dumb messaging; smart clients.

All the smartness of the messaging can be implemented in the smart clients. Then you can expose that as a smart messaging api to dumb clients.

The most obvious example is kafka streams which exposes a "simple" api rather than dealing directly with kafka, but obviously you could create a less featurefull wrapper than that.

Is there a term/phrase similar to Japanese Kanji/Romanji referring to the use of Latin script for the Arabic word? When it gets to a card pairing the latin script with the Arabic, I was totally guessing until getting enough to start making the association in my head.
