I have never, ever in my career ever seen one "thrown away". Unless the project or startup itself dies, of course.

Once something is built, and in production in the hands of end users, it is something that needs to be maintained and built on and fixed over time. It's never thrown away.

Now if you are lucky, it has been well-written and designed so that parts can be refactored over time as new features are needed and old ones deprecated. If it's shoddily built and rushed because you couldn't afford or couldn't be bothered to do it right the first time, then that's going to be tech debt you are going to have to deal with for years to come.
If they had time to rewrite the whole native app to React Native then they should have enough time to triage this security issue.
The next generation of AI must be more than a language model. I believe AI will reach a stagnation point otherwise.

Also slowing down AI is that:

1) We don't presently know that much about the human brain or psychology. A lot, yes, but relatively not that much.

2) The scientific method is systematic, not systemic. Both perspectives are needed to interpret a reality made of interconnected systems.

3) There are many specialists and not many generalists. Generalists are needed to tie together the multiple domains required to emulate the human brain.
NASA starts reassessment of Mars Sample Return architecture
I don't think Carlin's observation holds much support.

Take the classic "shell shock" bit. Carlin defines it at "a condition in combat that occurs when a soldier is completely stressed out and is on the verge of a nervous collapse." However, that is not the WWI definition. Quoting https://ajp.psychiatryonline.org/doi/full/10.1176/appi.ajp.2... :

"The term “shell shock” evolved in an attempt to describe cases that arose in the context of exploding ordnance but where enduring symptoms could not be linked to the presence of an obvious organic lesion."

The problem was, from the same link, "many shell-shocked soldiers had been nowhere near an explosion but had identical symptoms to those who had. ... when it had become clear that many cases of shell shock were not directly related to a head injury, military medical authorities attempted to restrict use of the diagnosis. Servicemen invalided from the front were given a preliminary label of “not yet diagnosed, nervous,” and those who failed to recover but had no visible cerebral injury were then classified as “neurasthenic.” Disputes over the etiology and management of shell shock served to inhibit further the design of an effective protocol."

This should be very familiar to those who remember the PTSD debate in the post-Vietnam era.

So when Carlin say "I’ll bet if they had still been calling it 'shell shock,' some of those Vietnam veterans might have received the attention they needed.", I don't really think that's true.

We can even read of some of the attention received by WWI victims of shell shock, at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shell_shock :

"Some men with shell shock were put on trial, and even executed, for military crimes including desertion and cowardice.[16] While it was recognised that the stresses of war could cause men to break down, a lasting episode was likely to be seen as symptomatic of an underlying lack of character ... The continued pressure to avoid medical recognition of shell shock meant that it was not, in itself, considered an admissible defence. Although some doctors or medics did take procedure to try to cure soldiers' shell shock, it was first done in a brutal way. ... a patient who had, over the course of 9 months, been subjected unsuccessfully to numerous treatments for his mutism; these included strong application of electricity to his throat, lit cigarette ends applied to the tip of his tongue, and "hot plates" placed in the back of his mouth"

PTSD is a larger category which would include shell shock, but also includes (as the VA point out at https://www.research.va.gov/topics/ptsd.cfm) military sexual trauma, which wouldn't be classified as "shell shock" but has similar symptoms and treatments.

>45 minutes from Vancouver

This part is a problem, because it sounds like 45 minutes to where the traffic starts, from there another 1.5 hrs to the parts of the city you want to go.

Or do you mean a net 45 min to city center?
Have state actors playing a longer honeypot sort of game been ruled out?

Because btc is only pseudoanonymous, letting you observe and maybe link transaction sources and recipients, it gives SOME insight into the global movements of funds which were previously totally opaque and untraceable, such as cash, gold, and offshore instruments where there might be NONE.

So for a small investment of a few cryptographic experts' time, a state actor has new insights into political opponents, tax dodges, arms and contraband sales. The amount of insights scales with crypto's adoption and is always greater than the opaque instruments.
What part? It would be better if you listed specifics rather than generalizations. I'm open to debate anything I posted.
This is probably going to help bring back some who went to Kick for some quick cash.

Strongly believe that no other competitors have gotten their chat dialed down as well as on Twitch. Would be a shame if you go to Youtube to watch on better bitrate but participate on Twitch chat.
Disagree, but can you substantiate hypocrite claim? Also cancellation chance seems to depend on how 'big' you are. Chapelle wasn't cancelled despite attempts. I suspect Carlin would get in trouble, but since he had a strong following, it is hardly a given.
> authoritarian leader

So, let’s go out, vote, and get others to vote.
I have a similar struggle. One thing I did come up with is many times corporations use newly created jargon to confuse people. It add a mental burden on the listener to decipher and takes away from the time to analyze the statement.
> I don't buy the arguments that the current fiat system has enough issues to indicate it needs replacement.

Said like somebody who never had a problem with the financial system and had access to banks for their entire life. It's great that money works for you, for most people on this planet the same can not be said.

> where governments no longer are able to use the soft power of economics to react to other countries

The idea that monetary policy is the only way to influence economics seems kind of absurd? You're surely not suggesting that removing fiat currencies would remove economics from the world of politics?
Wrong. Organizations don’t exist without administration, as a necessary requirement for doing business. Part of your time, as part of that org, will contribute to that if for nothing else because a company is required to comply with baseline regulatory compliance (accounting, taxes, investor relations, etc.).

Happy to share in the spoils and many companies do this with stock/options of course - but don’t think for a minute you live in a walled garden. I mean, you can, but then you get zero input into things like deadlines; you’ll simply be ignored or moved out of the org.

Your comment is essentially “I want all of the responsibility and none of the accountability”
One anecdote. I had a friend with ongoing gut problems for years and tried giving him probiotics in pill form and it didn't really do anything. But recently he's discovered taking garlic juice seems to make things better. Presumably it kills of whatever bacteria that were upsetting his gut.
The average Venezuelan cannot survive on what they can earn because of poverty and inflation caused by the incompetent and corrupt socialist government of Venezuela.
I remember early Carlin and he pushed the legal limits of radio and TV broadcast from the start. AFAIK he was also the first to cross the lines with the "7 words" one can not say on that industry. He was always providing commentary on society but what I noticed was that his views got darker and more jaded with time. He started off using his knowledge of language to be rebellious and edgy, then delving more into self analysis tearing himself apart for self deprecating routines then eventually teasing and tearing society apart.
> people there were in the habit of kidnapping for ransom

"People there" is likely an exageration. Illegal armed groups.

https://colombiareports.com/colombia-illegal-armed-groups-ma...

The FARC group goes back 50+ years and was inspired by Fidel Castro and Che Guevara. There are still radicals who have not laid down their weapons or profit from drug trade or gold mining operations.

This gets thrown around alot but I disagree.

Mark Zuckerberg sells Meta shares, Bezoes sells Amazon shares, Gates sold a large portion of Microsoft.

The BTC market is big enough to support satoshi selling his coins.

Hell the ETF market alone could absorb all his coins.

I have yet to see anyone show how satoshi selling a single coin would crash the market. He has about 2 days worth of liquidity in a relatively mature market. That's not much volume at all.
Refused to make jokes at the expense of one marginalized and vulnerable group he's part of, makes jokes at the expense of another he isn't. That's hypocrisy. The motivation to walk away was self-interested, not principled.
Editor.js is WYSIWYG.
just like the saying "you are what you eat", the models are as good as the data they're trained on.

to combat this, either you introduce randomness/noise intentionally at the cost of the results, or you work on enriching the data to be more inclusive.
Satoshi was for raising the blocksize:

> It can be phased in, like: if (blocknumber > 115000) maxblocksize = largerlimit It can start being in versions way ahead, so by the time it reaches that block number and goes into effect, the older versions that don’t have it are already obsolete.

Given that lightning still has shit UX without relying on third parties should be proof enough that it was and still is a terrible idea to rely on for Bitcoins usability.
I don't understand why more people don't care about round-tripping. Yes it was over ambitious and far too heavyweight in the 90s, but today you should be able to generate OpenAPI and its data and component equivalents from the visual graph, or inversely import your graph, then verify / update either "side" at any time. I've mentioned this before, but TogetherJ was the best example I saw, lightweight and worked well for visual/code round tripping when it was all in a predictable Java environment. Somehow we went from overdone to decades of "works for me" mucky muck.
Yes Minister is fantastic. I recommend the book all the time. It’s satire, but the exaggeration helps you understand real organizational dynamics.

Hmm I’m probably due for a re-read…
It feels like an admission of failure on the part of civil engineering culture.
>Who says "business people" aren't capable of dealing with uncertainty?

Well not me if you read my comment.

Also given that you don't know me but you immediately made a personal attack based on your own misunderstanding... you kind of proved yourself wrong. That's why people don't talk to you.
I did it last year. Implementing the server was challenging, only because I was working with a large database of existing documents. The thing about YJS is that it's a data structure itself, which means that your document is going to be a YJS document. I remember thinking "okay so there must be a way to convert the YJS doc into html and write that to the database once the session is over." I never figured that part out, and had to do a bunch of hacky shit to get it to work.

If you're working on a greenfield project it'll probably be easier. And the integration with TipTap itself was simple. I love TipTap.
I don't think that the (almost) is right here.

UaF is a huge source of UB in C and C++. There are two ways to make UaF almost impossible: either a total adoption of Rust-style lifetime checking, which is not a possible transition for the large majority of existing code, or runtime checks that have large and unacceptable performance overhead. The overhead doesn't come from some a few weird corner cases that you can avoid in ordinary development. The overhead would come from core components.
So technology is solving problems that technology (in the broad sense) caused? Poverty isn’t an inherent property of the universe.

I’m not anti-technology by the way. It’s undoubtedly reduced human suffering by a large amount. I just think that the story is a lot more nuanced.
Before lightning was a thing, he anticipated the block size would increase over time. And he changed his mind when the idea of level 2 came up. Which was the right thing to do. But hard to understand at that time.

UX is a problem throughout all crypto. No matter which coin, no matter L1 or L2. It's all still like the internet before the 90s.
What if the first solar entrepreneur hadn't been kidnapped in 1909?
There’s lots of people who can recite owasp but few people who can actually engineer and show leadership and do mentoring to make a more secure product and service.
Not just in principle. Compilers do have flags that turn UB into defined behavior (not all UB but e.g. signed overflow) and this often does not have high overhead. Users must learn turning on certain features. I do not think this is rocket science, it is more like putting on the seat belt.

An ISO standard will always be just minimum requirements, simply because there are too many different requirements out there and it is created by consensus. It is not the ruling committee of C that could decide top-down what the language is. If users do not drive the change bottom-up by demanding improvements from their compiler vendors, it will not happen. Luckily, this is happening and compilers get more and better features for safety now. I agree though that defaults are still poor and for some problems there is still no good solution.

If somebody wants to use Rust, why not? I do not like it for a variety of reasons, but that it is safer by default (with respect to memory safety - which is not everything) is good. I personally also want to have this in C.
The key word here being 'almost'. So you admit there is some.
Apples and oranges? Let's Encrypt is a bandaid for a (possibly inevitable) architectural weakness, one serving browsers which must communicate with a world of unfamiliar servers. Telegram is a messaging app primarily meant for communicating among people and groups one already knows.

Regardless, using open and verified cryptographic primitives is a best practice for a reason. As are audits. The likelihood any company can start from scratch and produce a flawless solution is a number approaching zero.

I'd feel much more comfortable with something using Signal protocol. Ideally built from independently audited source.
On my daily commute in the DC Metro area (pre 9/11) I would occasionally listen to an Arabic or otherwise ME radio station. On one trip home there was a call-in talk show on the station, and that particular day was memorable because while the host and caller were both speaking Arabic (I assume), the caller would occasionally pause and switch to English when they felt they needed to express their viewpoint using exceptionally vague and ambiguous, non-committal language. It sounded exactly like White House messaging.
Can someone with OAuth expertise explain this issue in a few more details, as I've read the blog a few times, but still don't understand the actual vulnerability.

From my very limited OAuth knowledge isn't this how it works:

1. The Harvest application asks Microsoft to verify a user.
2. The user is verified by Microsoft.
3. If the user verification is successful Microsoft redirects back to the callback URL, passing back the access token inside the body of the response message.

In this case hasn't the writer of the blog just created a hand-crafted URL so that the return is back to example.com rather than the actual return URL?
Can confirm. Had 3 or 4 batteries replaced (under warranty) before the local dealership informed me that "some DCMs cause parasitic battery drain". I brought it in, they ran some sort of test, and ordered me a new DCM (also under warranty). It took a while for the part to arrive, so they pulled the fuse. As other posters have noted, it took out one of the speakers (music sounded only mostly normal) and both the mic and speaker for Bluetooth comms were dead.

Previously, there were times that I would drive 100 miles one day, and I couldn't even open the doors using the automatic locks on the following day. It's been about a month on the new DCM and so far I haven't had any issues, so here's hoping...
I'm a fairly new computer science graduate and it has been hard to find a cyber security job that doesn't require a clearance. I've done a bunch of ctfs and reverse engineering, but I just don't see many roles out there that are meant to train people like me that will give me an interview. So it's being a programmer for me until that changes.

Why is NewsGuard considered a trusted source, given their ties to the US intelligence establishment? The people that conned us about Iraqi WMD do not deserve the right to be the arbiters of what is deemed to be information.
Paying for the service replicates the cable TV industry. In order to get what I want and support, I end up supporting what I don’t want and don’t want to support.

I am under ZERO obligation to watch advertising, that is the risk the industry takes. The ad industry has long ago tipped the scales in the trade of attention for content and now they resort to shaming the viewers into compliance.

Everyone supporting the adblock countermeasures are hypocrites; as if they never went to the bathroom during a TV show commercial break.
Transcribe and summarize using an llm.
This citizen disagrees, but I'm not sure it is about us anymore.
For the server, did you use hocuspocus, or something else? Mine is a greenfield project, so using Yjs's data structure as the canonical source of truth seems okay (though I expect to need some sort of indexing or something for search etc.).
I believe dingi is perfectly aware of the realistic outcomes, and is instead describing the normative ones, i.e. what you need if you want an enterprise that actually self-improves, where the best employees aren't actively looking for the door whilst concealing things from management.

It is, however, wholly a management problem to find those actually-rewarding rewards.

Crazy idea: what if employees retained IP of any spontaneous, self-directed R&D? You could then license their tech and make the role redundant, something any ruthless capitalist would consider a win. The employee can go job-hunting with a small passive income and glittering CV, which means they're much more likely to actually tell you so you can get that outsourcing win.

In reality, it seems far too many businesses have moats as a result of excellent decisions made by founders in the past, and as a result can't be outcompeted by companies that do manage talent better.
What a negative and off-putting comment. You are dunking on the work of a teenager putting in time and effort to do something incredible by any measure. You need to take a deep, hard look inside of you, what’s spilling out is not nice. Why do we have to pick between one or the other? I celebrate the work of both of them.

And with your attitude, no, most likely you wouldn’t have built anything with a $30k laser cutter.
Super impressed! I can help you make this into a real-time flyover if you're willing to collaborate. My contact is in my profile ;)

If you store captions produced by a party you trust (e.g., Google Meet), it could be accomplished w/o accessing audio at all. If I get it right, your concern is more about what's in the pipeline than what comes out.
Thank you. This is why I keep coming back here. I would not have stumbled on it on my own. It hits quite hard for me.

If Reddit improved their own search, they could probably compete with Google.
Voting with your wallet is always the best, my point was that most (all?) big companies will use the tax system in a way to give them the best outcome that's possible through legal means.
Indeed. The evolution of the universal wave function as described by the Schrödinger equation is perfectly deterministic. If you believe in that as the fundamental description of reality (which also means not believing in wave-function collapse), the result is the many-worlds interpretation of QM. Similarly, hidden-variable theories are deterministic.
Soft language is a slippery slope that eventually allows people to do reprehensible things to each other while masking it in the warm blanket of either indifference or virtue because the vocabulary doesn't reflect the horror involved anymore and in some cases, promotes the very opposite.

Here's another example from George: calling a "rape victim" "involuntary sperm recipient". He said it in jest then but I'd believe that some committee might design such change into language of documents like police reports in order not to "offend" and spare the case worker from uncomfortable truths or some bs like that while completely neutralizing the pain and suffering of the victim.

Soft language is a long game. It's not something which effects are apparent in a year or two or even ten but decades down the line and things like that always begin in innocuous and innocent sounding targets. Like bathroom tissue.

Language is the water. We are the frog.
I'm no "everything is a conspiracy by They/Them" Twitter nut, but if Canada were considering a large-scale economic change, then running it through the senate to generate a couple months of media coverage would be a good test balloon, and it would get the public familiar with the concept for when they eventually do introduce it via real policy.
> nearly all languages lack a way to solve this

The only thing I’ve seen that goes in this direction is Knuth’s literate programming. I’ve tried it. In its current form it’s still clumsy, lacks tool support and IMO doesn’t fully solve the problem of how to deal with documenting a changing piece of software yet. Knuth got his requirements correct on the first try; the rest of us aren’t so lucky.

There was more to the Scottish colony in Darien failing than just that, the English state had a hand in it, and an incentive to ensure it failed.

As to the post failure financial effect, that was mainly on a bunch of rich folks. Scotland per-se was not in any financial distress after the failure of the scheme, as it was private individuals, not the state which had invested.

Have a read of this piece, which covers a lot of the history around the failure of the Darien Scheme.
