Funny how nobody here seems to invest in startups…

Seriously: nobody picks up shares in unlisted companies, the ones that have the largest (potential) upside, via crowdfunding sites or by buying shares from employees? I’m not enough of an expert, so I will refrain from saying one should allocate x % in this type of investing, but I’m surprised that nobody is even talking about it.
Appreciate that.

The economics may appear bad for not using GitHub, but there’s still valid needs for code that isn’t hosted in the cloud.

For those cases it is reasonable to see or know what’s out there.
Lisps that are based purely on compilation implement (eval form) similarly to this:

(funcall (compile nil `(lambda () ,form)))

Lisps that are not based purely on compilation can have an eval function that walks the source code and interprets it. Or there could be a VM.

So the question is really, how do Lisps that compile to C implement the dynamic compile function? Typically it's all part of the same framework as file compilation.

There is a run-time dependency on the C compiler: for run-time compile to work, it has to be installed. The compile function writes something to a file, or perhaps a pipe. The compiler is invoked and produces a .o file; the function then loads that into the image and bind it to a funcall-able object.

It's a dependency that's a bit hard to swallow, since a C toolchain is hundreds of megabytes nowadays.
No, it’s the compassionate policies that shitheads from all over the country migrate to.
This is more of an off-topic, but is there research into not having to evaluate all LLM tokens for each output token (at perhaps some cost to output quality), thereby making it possible to run these models in a more compute and memory efficient manner?
Maybe not impressive but none of the services of my customers had or has 1.8 million users. And yet they do well (my customers.)
It's not uncharitable. Yes, some Americans really are serious hikers, but the idea that this is common among Americans is fantasy. Most Americans don't hike at all and couldn't hike a mile in mountainous terrain because they're too fat or otherwise out-of-shape. Meanwhile, some others are mega-hikers who can hike rim-to-rim and back in the Grand Canyon in a day. It's the same way with American cyclists: most can't ride a bike much at all, while the ones who can are frequently close to pro-level. America is a land of extremes, but with an obesity rate of well over 50%, it is not a place where normal, everyday people are serious hikers.
Usually in cartoons the dogs were simply taken to the pound, which was depicted as being basically "jail for dogs", but I suspect that most of the animals picked up off the street by dog catchers didn't spend a lot of time behind bars.

Why do you assume I want to regulate crypto?

Your problem is you completely misunderstand what tax is for in a sovereign state. Of course you then fail to understand why states might wish to tax things you think are irrelevant to them in terms of holdings. You can rant at your living in within the confines of a state, but you're deluded if you think crypto has anything to offer the situation.

I suggest you understand how a little more about how currencies actually function (hint, you won't find it in a mainstream economics textbook, but the mechanisms are well understood). Alternatively you can get angry in your ignorance. I'm relaxed either way. In any case, I'm done here. Take care.

TLDR: WireHub is a tool that helps you generate WireGuard configurations and easily share those with your end-users - instead of emailing configs around, you can just share a link to WireHub.

--

So if you want a secure private network for your devices and you choose WireGuard as the protocol for it, there a few ways to get there depending on your needs.

As is often the case, it's a question of convenience Vs security & trust.

In general, I think there are three categories of tools:

1) CLIs - Command line tools where you run a couple of commands and you get a folder of wireguard config files.

2) Self-hosted Admin UIs - `git clone ... && docker-compose up` (or something to that effect) in a server of yours and you get an admin UI to control a WireGuard interface and its peers.

3) All-in-One - tools that control the whole stack, from using/recreating WireGuard in userspace with custom agents to SSO, RBAC, etc etc.

With CLIs, its easy to generate configurations but then there's a lot of fiddling to main them. Multiple networks? New peers? Rotating keys? Securing Keys? Ugh.

With self-hosted admin UIs, like wg-easy, subspace, et al, you can get to 90% quite easily especially if you're up to to some open source hacking yourself, and the GUI aspect makes it kind of easier to maintain your network.

Yet, the issue of securing the PrivateKeys remains - they are all kept on the server running the admin UI and are then distributed to peers.

All-in-One solutions, like tailscale, netbird, netmaker, et al, solve the PrivateKey problem by providing agents - their own software you have to install on each of your devices. Their software securely handles PrivateKeys on each client so they are not stored in a single place and never leave the device they were created on. You get to 100% pretty quickly, but you're somehow left wondering about the layers and layers of pure magic (in a good way!) going on behind the scenes.

WireHub tries to strike a balance between convenience and security in all three categories by:

- Making PrivateKeys optional. For maximum security, just don't share them with WireHub. For convenience however, WireHub can encrypt your PrivateKeys in browser (using WebCrypto) with a password of your choice (that is never stored, anywhere). WireHub can also generate the keys in browser, using Jason's javascript implementation.

- Not running any servers. For maximum security, bring your own cloud. For convenience, you can use `curl` to download the relevant WireGuard config on each server.

- Relying on stock WireGuard apps and not providing clients or other software to install. Jason is just better at writing secure software :)

So these choices place a hard limit on what WireHub can and will try to do.

> Seems like a plausible test but it's easy to poke holes in it. What if I get some shoe laces with a pattern of the Louis Vuitton logo and put them in generic shoes?

Since the specific example was explicitly marked third party screens that shipped with a official Apple cable included that happens to have Apple logos on it in an invisible way, your analogy is not great.

If I sold a pair of generic shoes labeled as just generic shoes, but lace them with a set of laces from Louis Vuitton shoes that have a small logo hidden on the tip, never advertising this fact in any way, that would be the comparison.

No one is claiming that the whole assembly is an official Apple product, they're not even marketing the official cable, so why should the fact that they did actually use an official cable suddenly make the whole product "counterfeit"?
I wonder if this would have held up in the US if it had been disputed. Neither trademark nor copyright is allowed to be functional and Nintendo effectively made their mark a functional requirement for a disk to fit.
No, it's bad when real evidence is routinely thought to be fake and dismissed.

Neal Stephenson's Anathem (2008) has a great throwaway section on this:

> “Early in the Reticulum-thousands of years ago-it became almost useless because it was cluttered with faulty, obsolete, or downright misleading information,” Sammann said.

> “Crap, you once called it,” I reminded him.

> “Yes-a technical term. So crap filtering became important. Businesses were built around it. Some of those businesses came up with a clever plan to make more money: they poisoned the well. They began to put crap on the Reticulum deliberately, forcing people to use their products to filter that crap back out. They created syndevs whose sole purpose was to spew crap into the Reticulum. But it had to be good crap.”

> “What is good crap?” Arsibalt asked in a politely incredulous tone.

> “Well, bad crap would be an unformatted document consisting of random letters. Good crap would be a beautifully typeset, well-written document that contained a hundred correct, verifiable sentences and one that was subtly false. It’s a lot harder to generate good crap. At first they had to hire humans to churn it out. They mostly did it by taking legitimate documents and inserting errors-swapping one name for another, say. But it didn’t really take off until the military got interested.”

> “As a tactic for planting misinformation in the enemy’s reticules, you mean,” Osa said. “This I know about. You are referring to the Artificial Inanity programs of the mid-First Millennium A.R.”

> “Exactly!” Sammann said. “Artificial Inanity systems of enormous sophistication and power were built for exactly the purpose Fraa Osa has mentioned. In no time at all, the praxis leaked to the commercial sector and spread to the Rampant Orphan Botnet Ecologies. Never mind. The point is that there was a sort of Dark Age on the Reticulum that lasted until my Ita forerunners were able to bring matters in hand.”

What epistemic trust? Perhaps in the west where it wasn't 100% obvious everything media says is a lie. In the countries of the ex-Soviet block everyone is very aware of the propaganda back then and now. (propaganda is not just lies - every form of distribution of information with a goal to influence the receiving person is propaganda, propaganda can be true or false, it can be true and twisted into a different meaning, it can be deliberately false to out across a counterpoint etc). In short this is why people exposed to propaganda for decades are inclined to trust full length videos recorded by identifiable individuals on the ground a 100x more than any editorial on TV or uploaded by any organisation. This is why telegram and in a way twitter exploded as a source of news during this war.

Is it possible to insert deep fakes in there? Sure, but the technology is defonot good enough to not be able to tell it apart.
I'm not sure I understand why it's more effective. I agree with you that it is, but I don't get why so many people are happy to rally behind a cause whose foundation is obvious lies.

How are they going to elevate the world’s consciousness now?

In the Adam Neumann can do no wrong era this was their “corporate mission”. Honestly I can understand people using WeWork’s service, but at this point anyone who is a shareholder or creditor is either completely reckless or is strapped in, expecting a bumpy ride.

There’s no way you go in eyes open to a company that:

- used to spout BS like that

- has had to ditch the “visionary” founder and cut back on hubris

- has had to ditch its IPO and go public in a SPAC deal

…etc etc …and not expect things to be rough. I sort of get SoftBank’s position at this point. They are chained to the mast and they just need to see it through, knowing it’s going to be painful as anything.
This was the plot of the film "The Founder" on the founding of McDonalds.

The legal costs to recover a single shipment are not worth the value of the shipment, and they also don't prevent the border police from siezing the next shipment.

Businesses want to make money, not tilt at windmills.

These companies are not designed to last forever. Many wrappers can make decent amounts of money for their creators for months and then die. Under these conditions a company can close down and still be considered a big success.
It is impossible to be analytically skeptical of everything, because it takes lots of energy to question the facts behind a narrative.

But when you dig deeper in the public narrative of many subjects you find out that the narrative is misleading and sometimes even totally wrong on almost any subject you look into. By this I mean that for example anything the newspapers write about on any subject that you know deeply about, they get wrong on some very important aspect. You just extrapolate this experience over all the possible subjects.

Then there comes a moment of realisation that you are spending lots of energy in maintaining all these public narratives in your head. And as the narratives are misleading or wrong, they are blinding you from seeing some of the facts. And as a consequence you do not see the situation as clearly as you could. And you may start clearing your mind off these narratives, releasing the energy you are spending to maintain them.

And then you might be able to develop a sense of "smell" or intuition when people are not being honest, but are trying to manipulate you or sell you some idea. And this helps in recognising the situations without the need to spend energy on being analytically skeptical.

> Most Americans don't hike at all and couldn't hike a mile in mountainous terrain because they're too fat or otherwise out-of-shape.

You obviously know very little about America. First of all, most Americans aren't so fat they can't walk around. Second, I'm really fat (far more than average) and even I can hike a mile in mountainous terrain. Not only can I, I have and will again. It's taxing (which it shouldn't be), but it's quite manageable. Walking a mile isn't that much in the grand scheme of things.

So yeah, not only is it uncharitable, your attempt to defend it shows your own ignorance both of Americans and of what level of activity is possible even for those who are overweight. Bad show, sir.
Only in North America.
I don't use paper much, even though I suspect I really should, because of the mental health benefits various people cite.

Also, I spend almost as much time researching as I do actually coding.

I don't tend to experiment and rewrite much, I would rather spend that time researching and getting the architecture and APIs right.

Code can always be refactored, interfaces and data structures can only be changed if you updated all the other stuff that touches them.
I'm not convinced of the alternative either though. If you think of the AI as an intelligence akin to an employee.. at some level it becomes a commodity and then it becomes what is the AI doing.. what is it harnessed into?
I was expecting it to turn into some kind of AirBnB model where people rent out a room as an office. A good desk, a good chair and a good connection in a house sounds rentable to me, many people could have rented a room in their house during the working hours to those who don’t have a spare room to turn into an office.
Reverts are also easy even if one merges the whole branch. Just revert the merge commit.

You would have to build the UI probably a pre-prompt yourself, but yeah it should be fine if the math does work out.

Ignorance of Americans? I am American! I know my home country all too well. The stats don't lie: more than half of Americans aren't just overweight, they're obese. "Can't walk a mile" isn't meant to be taken literally; of course an obese person can struggle to hike a mile, but I guess I should always count on autistic HN users to take everything literally.
They defacto threw out a working pipeline for a beloved product for no other reason then cost savings and project expenses justification. It was a disaster that basically destroyed bioware.

The procedural stuff was just a " while we leap of the cliff with no plan" let's make the cost cutters happy who wail because there "abandon working system" for completely different system that's working for a completely different usecase did not work out. Honestly for decisions this clueless and value endangering a whole executive floor should have been let go.
From another one who tries to do the same (but doesn't enforce it):

Thanks!
Here is a different calculation:

Number of people employed 2019(pre-pandemic)/2023: increase of 1.9%

Population of the USA 2019/2023 (estimates): increase of 3.5%

The situation could be the same of better (ie: it's possible the population is younger and we should account for that); but clearly the job market is doing worse (regardless of population) per-capita than in 2019. This will have inflationary effects (things are more expensive, more disruption of services, etc...) as there are more new people in the country than people working.

The way the U6 rate has been gamified, it'll probably be useless as a metric by the end of the decade.

That just isn't true according to literally any evidence.
