I don't see how in box updates helps with this?

Sounds like they shipped with 17.0.0, 17.0.1 was a day one patch and determined to be broken, but wasn't pulled before a fixed update was released.

In this situation, instead of being told not to update and you being able to skip the update and run initial setup on 17.0.0 if 17.0.2 hadn't shipped, they may have already updated the device to 17.0.1, and you would have had to wait. Presumably if it was bad enough, they might not sell you the thing until 17.0.2 was available for them to update it before you got it.

That said, in box upgrades are great to avoid huge patches when you open something that may have been sitting on the shelves for a while, and should help with logistics as well. Apple said they wanted to use more ocean freight rather than air freight for environmental reasons, and it will also likely reduce costs, but as another poster was saying, if you can't put the phones in the box until the final OS is ready, you can't ship the phones until the OS is ready, and ocean freight is slow. Being able to ship the phones and update them after they arrive in the destination at the destination store/distribution warehouse eliminates a pipeline bubble.

Show HN: Replicover – Find the hottest AI models on Replicate
Sorry if this is a bit meta but why is it so popular and accepted to Just Say Stuff in AI land? Sometimes it seems to me that AI people have begun hallucinating as much as the models they’re training.

This article seems pretty cool but in no way has it anything to do with its title. “Operating system” has a clearly defined meaning and it’s not “a thing that has memory”. To me these kinds of grandiose claims with no substance undermine the credibility of the authors.

I mean what’s wrong with “Tiered memory layers to provide extended AI context windows”?
The reasons this site recommends disabling certain algorithms are, to say the least, very specualtive.

Just to give two examples: It recommends disabling diffie hellman with 2048 bit. There isn't even the slightest evidence that any attack might be possible on that size. It's just based on some policy recommendations that convert DH size to key strength and it ends up being below 128 bit.

It recommends disabling HMAC-SHA1. Now, SHA1 is not collission resistant. But HMAC is not affected by this weakness. Therefore there's no real risk.

Generally, OpenSSH has already improved algorithm security quite a lot over the years and everything that is remotely close to a real attack is disabled by default.
But unfortunately it says nothing that couldn't have been said 10 years ago.
This looks like a great lead, thanks for this
Signal: No evidence that 0day is real
> I really miss those days of being out, exploring publicly what a game is about. In the past that has led me into all sorts of trouble – as you develop a game, you try things out, and when you try things out, some things work and some things don’t. Now, in the old days, I used to talk about that process without really making it clear that some features may appear and then disappear.

> Famously in Fable 1, I think I mentioned that if you planted an acorn, an oak tree would grow, but that feature was dropped from the original Fable, and I think that was the start of me getting in trouble. I’m deeply sorry if I offended or upset anybody by my often overenthusiastic and ill thought out press. The great thing about this blog is it’s not trying to do anything but explain the process (you’re probably going to see me get ridiculously exicted).

https://developmolyneux.blog/

> And I should make a note here that normally when I’m designing a game, and this is just me, it’s actually a terrible idea, so if anyone is reading this and thinking, right, this is how to design a game, don’t do this! I think, because of my dyslexia, I prefer not to write things down. I mean, you have to write things down when you’re communicating to a team, but in the early days, I think once I’ve written something down, I feel subconsciously that that’s it. It’s written in stone, there’s no more changing it. If you keep it inside your mind and keep mulling it over and thinking about it and wondering about it, and being very curious about how this idea evolves, then it’s much more likely to be fluid. And being fluid allows me to play around a lot with an idea.

> Now the downside is you are depending on yourself to remember all that shit. Because it’s so easy to get excited about something, especially when under the influence of a mood enhancer. It’s very easy to forget about.

> So I’m not saying that this game is going to be my last game, but I am saying that time is running out and that is incredibly sad, but that makes this game, in my mind, very, very meaningful. I feel it should be something which represents parts of my career and the many games I’ve been lucky to work on.
I'd argue that the rise of AI makes all pre-AI works more valuable. Not only because only pre-AI works are guaranteed to be free of AI filler "content", but also because pre-AI works represent a larger investment of authorial time and expertise. Kind of how hand-sculped works from the renaissance era are more valuable than far more detailed 3d-printed objects.

This is terrible. Of course dark matter is a theory.

100% agree. Nobody is really interested on having ArangoDB on the cloud as a service. I guess >99% of the users are not paying and the company is running out of money (sales guys cost a lot!).

For me too. I realize I'll get used to them but I keep getting surprised whenever I see them.

Also, since we're talking distractions: the underlined words -- when hovering over them the rest of the verse shifts right to make space for the little sign, it feels strange (and in case this is browser specific: I am using Chrome on Mac).
But the solution is to turn CSS into inline styles?

I don't know about that. I think selectors are pretty powerful. Have managed to avoid littering the HTML with structural nodes by using them creatively. CSS has gained a huge number of features since I first learned it, there's even better ways to do stuff now.
There is nothing magical about western “democracies”. Similar law was already passed in the UK.

OK, fair point, he acknowledges the pain caused. But then goes and does the exact same thing over again.
I see a couple of things.

1) Some front end needs and/or frameworks were developped by companies having a scale and pool of talent justifying the needs for new tools tailored to their use cases (extreme audience = need to address many user specificities + pool of talents means the best brains on this planet invent something: doesn't help in coming up with a trivial solution). React, Flutter, AMP.

2) During the zirp, coming up with some great tech was also a way to attract talents. Using such tech was (is) a way to be part of that group too. There is a trend effect. I am wondering whether complex front end tech stacks are justified when you can't hire the best talents and when you need to work faster to keep in business.

3) Micro service all the things leads to using API's everywhere which leads to have consumers everywhere including your front end. Coming back from this could mean using simpler apps and dropping some of the front end complexity.

Probably more :)
Valheim [1] is one of an ever-increasing number of amazing games made by extremely small teams. It was initially made by one guy in his spare time, who later picked up a former coworker to come join him after getting quite far along. That game is arguably the single most technically challenging type of game to make: seamless and dynamic (time/weather/seasons) open world, player crafting/construction in a pseudo-voxel type system, multiplayer, dynamic skill based combat, and more. Even though I'm sure they've probably grown a bit since then, the overwhelming majority of everything was done by primarily 1 guy. So yeah, it's very possible to be a generalist.

Going in the other direction, the increasingly absurd size of companies is one thing I really just can't wrap my head around at all. The final output just doesn't seem to justify these massive teams and budgets when contrasted against vastly smaller projects, like Valheim.

The linked report[1] is 160ish pages long, and "Ctrl + F" for "draft" or "conscription" yields nothing.

Posturing about fighting a two front war - in Europe and in Asia, again - is not serious unless we are talking about conscription. There is an on-going recruiting crisis across all service branches, and the AVF will not be able to support a single front war, let alone two. This is perhaps a neat laundry list of interesting technology, from people who I'm sure are very smart, but, again, unless the first paragraph of the first chapter starts out by talking about how you put bodies in uniforms to use that technology it doesn't matter.

Ok guys, please actually explain instead of just pouncing. Why wouldn't text chat be more appropriate in this situation? I understand that ASL could be much more quick/fluent in a person to person interaction, plus it doesn't need any technical means of writing, whether pen and paper or a computer. But isn't technical support a rare use case where typing speed is not a big bottleneck and where also writing things out can help precision and cut down on having to repeat yourself? Given that resources are always limited, wouldn't it be better to invest in accessibility where that has the most impact rather than a corner case where other workarounds are available?
I like the idea but would tie it to a yearly revenue + total for receiving entity and cut those in periods (10 years maybe less) in a form like:

Free, 1% of revenue, 10% of revenue, 100%, 1000% etc.

Thus non commercial darlings could be kept relatively long without high cost but all commercial offerings would wither off relatively quick. Pipe dream as obviously companies in power are controllers here.

The planning might be very detailed and considerate, but the execution is often botched. The people doing the surveys and consultations are not the people who end up doing construction. Because of pressure the people doing construction often have a "better to ask for forgiveness than permission" approach to non-structural things like flora.

I think that’s actually the big problem with the CPI - it treats a house purchase as a speculative investment, rather than a separate category of housing on equal footing with rent. I think the median housing payment (mortgage + interest) should be included in the CPI.

This seems really easy to implement , IMO. Here's a world where this basically already works:

* When an iPhone comes from the factory, it's not really off-off, it's just in standby mode. Probably true to some extent in any case?

* If battery is above 50%, try to connect to a special Apple Store wifi network with a known signature. (Wifi has to have this kind of feature, right?)

* If you're connected, check for updates and apply any that apply.

* Go back to sleep.

Easy peasy. Bonus points if you can wirelessly charge them through the box, but honestly apple stores probably go through enough product it doesn't even matter.

How many impressions can you get out of each mask before it has to be discarded? Last time I heard about this tech, that was the limiting factor.

This uses e-beams to make the mask, right? Edit: here's their research paper (7 years old but note the identical model name FPA-1200NZ2C):

http://cnt.canon.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/08/Nanoimprint-...

Turns out they e-beam a "master mask" and then use that as an imprint to create "replica masks". Then the "replica masks" imprint the wafers. Sadly you still have to start with a crazy-expensive e-beam mask.
This does remind me of when thinkgeek was still a thing.

They may have more nuanced answers.
Mask lifetime.

Last time I heard about this tech (~8 years ago, when it was nowhere near commercial availability) that was the obstacle. Since the mask comes into physical contact with each wafer there is unavoidable wear on the mask with each wafer (actually with each chip). So the mask life is a certain number of chips; then you have to make a new one.
You'll still be able to make films the old way. It'll become an artistic choice.
"In contrast to conventional photolithography equipment, which transfers a circuit pattern by projecting it onto the resist coated wafer, the new product does it by pressing a mask imprinted with the circuit pattern on the resist on the wafer like a stamp"

Etching a wafer is only one step in the process, how do they deposit the metal layer? With lithography you have the resist that can be washed away after deposition.
Exactly. Works that generate massive amounts of commercial value are therefore more culturally important and should fall out of copyright faster, to maximize the amount of creative derivatives that can be produced while it's culturally relevant.

Works with little to no commercial activity should be protected longer to provide more opportunity to do so and give more protection to unknowns.
My mistake! Though my purpose was moreso excessive venting, as a ukrainian-american. But neither have a place here due to lack of value add.
There's no real vbios. There's a CGA chip (6845), with pretty limited registers to adjust timings (and a lot of software out there that expects to set these directly or for line timings and frame timings to be precisely known values). The clock rate is fixed.

The scan converter in panels often guesses "wrong" about modes. If one could change the firmware for it, that would help.
