Delaware is definitely not the cheapest or even in contention for the cheapest.

Still, if you want to raise capital, the correct answer is DE C Corp. If you're not looking for external funding, any state will do. If you care about anonymity, do Nevada or Wyoming. If you don't care about anonymity, Colorado is actually a very good choice. Very simple, intuitive online filing system that accepts filings instantaneously. Filing fees as cheap as anywhere in the country. No need for an attorney (or LegalZoom or some other random service) unless you just don't feel like dealing with it.

Costs will likely be $50 to file, Registered Agent (as cheap as $30 per annum), and $10 periodic report fee annually every year you're in business. Colorado is even nice enough to send plenty of reminders on when to file that report if you give them an email address.

Since you're a US citizen, my instinct would be LLC taxed as an S corp. But confirm with your accountant!

Good luck!

You're both right. The features matter, but so does the social stigma of bubble color.

Nothing will still have a feature and an edge by offering a "blue bubble" on Android, but this announcement would reduce my excitement a little bit if I were them.
It's like survivorship bias. You only see the things that aren't targeted for omission.

Sometimes you can tell a lot by what a given source leaves out about a given story. You find what's "allowed into the narrative" and how that evolves over time. Can be more interesting than the story itself.
SMS can also cost money. There are plans that charge per SMS after X amount per month.

It’s important users can tell if they are using SMS so they don’t get a giant phone bill at the end of the month.
The author ignores number portability. Just because I currently live in a city and have AT&T does not mean they issued my phone number.
Funny, in my experience many people think the same thing of those who espouse the 'societal value' of volunteering to kill people in iraq, especially over society-benefitting professions like teaching and medicine.

It's seems likely the wealthiest nations will genuinely reduce their emissions, but they're likely to be offset by the emissions elsewhere.
I think the system should delineate between messages sent through different services. Maybe we'll end up with three colors (green == sms/mms, blue = iMessage, purple == rcs)
That you created a prompt, not a painting.
I said Average for a reason :D I didn't say you can get "top-notch" security developers for that.

I don't think there's industry numbers for that set of people in the UK, as it's not a big enough set. However I'd be surprised if they were 150K plus though, that's a very rare salary in the UK.

Also there are cheaper countries than the UK who have great devs.

Incredibly likely given this line:

Well... let's say also that the telco investment were not light. That Google was pushing for RCS, and SMS, and their messenger of the moment. Apple refused to implement RCS, because why do so, since there was no carrier at the time proposing it.
So yeah, no.
Keep in mind that to continue automatic testing on older Apple platforms you have to run it on older Macs, which might not be available on the market anymore. CI/CD jobs are usually ran on mac minis, and if there are no more new mac minis with macOS older than Catalina, then it would not be possible to test against it.

A risk is that this other person will claim to be the original author and sue or otherwise attack you for copying their work. I am not a lawyer, but in your case I would contact one and make sure that I had enough documentation of my authorship to survive a legal claim.

(My experience is in the United States only; things might be different in other countries).
there is an expression in English that says: you put the cart before the horse. I think this applies here.

It is not "we wish things to be this way, so they are this way" .. the real world is not like that. For several thousand years, new technology like carts or horse-stirrups, have changed a balance of power between groups of humans who use those, and groups that do not; in this example, the cart for the agrarian, the stirrup for the hunting pack.

When new technology is implemented, the behavior of all humans at all times does not change instantly, nor does it change "because we want this".. It changes in fact, in practice, and over weeks or decades.

Right now, there is some agreement among humans driving cars. They drive a certain style, on roads, with law enforcement and prices. Costs are applied for goods like tires or gas, and also penalties like speeding tickets due to a speed limit that is posted in a way that is considered fair and public... in most places.

When I learned to drive, the legend of the "hidden speed limit sign" became dinner table talk. The ability of a small town to generate revenue for their police force, by waiting for people who are not fairly informed, or really just the police lying.. is common knowledge, because it is real.

Your comment makes it appear as if whole populations "want criminality" and this appears to be a conveniently simple, blaming the driver, point of view. It sounds ok in two sentences, but does not hold up to deeper inspection of policy over time in real places. You might say "oh we are not in some small town" well guess what.. large cities have corruption, believe it. Whole countries have corruption, in fact.

My post stands unedited.
I'm not suggesting that it's a solved problem, but it's a solvable problem, and the Signal Foundation should be using its (significant) resources to solve it, rather than slowly bleeding them out to AWS, GCP, Azure, and Twilio. Unfortunately, solving that problem also significantly reduces the scope of the Foundation, so there's little incentive.
You're moving the goal post from "self-sovereignty" to supports federation with an infinite number of servers. Nothing is stopping you from compiling your own Signal server and modifying a Signal client to use your server.

Given that Signal is free as a service, supporting federation only increases their expenses.
Yup, switching to sequential uuids reduced the wal traffic in my SaaS database significantly when we did it ~6 years ago.
Column staggered and even more so ortholinear are easier for my brain to work with: the layout can be made almost symmetrical and fingers always go up.

One thing to watch for is that many have same size modifier keys as letter keys, which I find not ideal.
"Likely cognitive bias" is not a conclusion, it's an invitation to do more research. The catch is that the amount of research you can do is extremely limited compared to what would be needed to verify the facts you hear, so you can't actually escape the need to trust and manage your trust relationships. An incredibly common mistake is to reject a decent but imperfect source in favor of a bad source, and for this reason I consider "trust less" actively harmful.

Trust A over B when C (subject to real time limits on computing C) = ok

Trust Less = harmful
Excellent. The next step is for Google to release a free and open source way for Android developers to build apps that send RCS messages. Currently, the only messaging app on Android that fully supports RCS is Messages by Google, which is closed source and requires Google Play Services to activate RCS features.

Also, end-to-end encryption is not part of the RCS specification, but is a proprietary extension to RCS that Google has made exclusive to Messages by Google.[1] This feature should be made open and added to the actual RCS specification so that Apple and other vendors can make use of it.

(Notes: There is a proprietary RCS API which Google only allows Samsung apps to use to communicate with Messages by Google.[2] Verizon has an app called Verizon Messages or Message+ that uses RCS to some extent, but this is an incomplete implementation that only works on Samsung devices on the Verizon network with no cross-carrier compatibility.[3])

I love when people comment on the color of a text message.
It makes it real easy to know who to block, because they worry about entirely the wrong things.
Google absolutely had a cohesive messaging app (Google Chat, later called Hangouts), they just threw it away and tried to rebuild it several times and under various other names and paradigms rather than iterating on it.

If they'd simply added a "WhatsApp/iMessage mode" to Google Chat in 2015 (i.e. allow Google account based users to seamlessly communicate with phone number based users), I think we might be seeing a very different messaging landscape today.
> Can you talk a bit more about how iMessage is fundamentally diferent than SMS on the functionality level

It's different in the same way every messaging app is different from SMS:

* Group chats, with custom group names and icons

* High quality images/videos

* Reactions

* Stickers

* Rich link previews

* Threads

* etc. etc.

> why iMessage is able to be the skeleton key into your iPhone

I don't think a lot (any?) of the vulnerabilities are unique to iMessage. It's more about the fact that SMS/iMessage is a means for someone to send you data that's then parsed/decoded immediately by the system.
Some carriers charge per SMS - after X SMSs per month. iMessage is completely free.

Kind of important to be able to tell if you are burning up your SMS quota.

Unlikely. This is most likely due to regulatory pressure of the EU. The Digital Services Act and Digital Markets Act both hit Apple pretty hard.

Though the real losers here are potentially WhatsApp, Telegram and other third-party services (assuming that Apple will implement E2E encryption). Since iPhone is not as dominant in other countries as the US, WhatsApp and some other messaging services have become dominant outside the US. They are not really necessary anymore once there is a proper standard across platforms.
P2P alternatives are less convenient (always on to deal with notifications, adding contacts typically requires extra steps, etcetera), but the difference in costs is abysmal. In any case, it's been years since I've tried to make my social circles move to any of those platforms (Briar, for example). It's a losing battle.
They haven't caught on outside of R&D and industrial uses because they're maintenance nightmares.

Think of an inkjet printer that prints honey, and the honey hardens when exposed to light.

The maintenance, the bad chemicals your exposed to in the printing, curing, cleaning processes, etc.

They're nightmares, you would not want it in your home. Same reason I don't have a sla printer, not worth it.

The projet 3500 is the coolest printer in this space if you do want one. It's cool be a use the support material is paraffin wax, so to clean and cure the parts you just melt off the wax in a low temp oven and clean the parts in an ultrasonic cleaner with cooking oil in it.
They don't need to. Almost nobody uses iMessage in the EU, since everybody is on WhatsApp.
An objective observer would conclude PayPal only exists to cause security problems.

I once called PayPal to report an "your account is suspended" phishing email and they angrily told me to follow the directions in the email.
It'll be interesting to see how this plays out. The victim is claiming there was no breach.

I wonder what the SEC will do if it turns out that it's just a stalling tactic. In the worst case, the ransomware gang will provide proof they provided the proof of the breach to the victim. At that point, I wonder what the SEC will do.
Still doesn't work. Any two people don't have a pro account and they stop using it in favor of a competitor, and then their other contacts use the competitor too. You can't charge for something WhatsApp has for free.
What if the social pressure, is in part, a result of the better experience one gets with iMessage?

Photos, videos, group messaging are all a significantly better experience with iMessage in my experience. This is not to say that other apps don't offer a similar experience, you can achieve much of the same functionality on Telegram or WhatsApp. It's just that it's built into the phone.

Google might have achieved similar success with their own messaging platform had they'd not constantly thrown it under the bus and created a new one every month. Allo, Duo, Meet, Google+, Google Chat etc....
"Privacy" is not the reason a lot of people comment on green text bubbles.
It's status. That's it.

If they truly cared about sec, they would use something like Signal.
For offline first apps, or for applications where very high degree of control for the content is needed (e.g. legal docs) and realtime collaboration isn't that valuable, there is also the option to use 3-way merge instead.

The benefit is that you can even allow the user to resolve conflicts in a satisfactory way.

Another benefit is that the document doesn't even have to be derived from the original, it could go through exports and re-imports and it will still be possible to run a 3-way merge as long as a common base version is declared. This can be especially covnenient for systems that involve e.g. MS Word.
I have some wishfull thinking ideas on this, but it should be possible to have both at least in an imaginary, theoretical scenario.

You can have both guaranteed delivery and no downtime if your whole system is so deterministic that anything that normally would result in blocking just will not, cannot happen. In other words it should be a hard real-time system that is formally verified top to bottom, down to the last transistor. Does anyone actually do that? Verify the program and the hardware to prove that it will never run out of memory for logs and such?

Continuing this thought, logs are probably generated endlessly, so either whoever wants them has to also guarantee that that they are processedand disposed of right after being logged... or there is a finite ammount of log messages that can be stored (arbitrary number like 10 000) but the user (of logs) has to guarantee that they will take the "mail" out of the box sooner than it overfills (at some predictable, deterministic rate). So really that means even if OUR system is mathematically perfect, we're just making the downtime someone elses problem - namely, the consumer of the infinite logs.

That, or we guarantee that the final resources of our self-contained, verified system will last longer than the finite shelf life of the system as a whole (like maybe 5 years for another arbitrary number)
Exactly. The desired outcomes may be different, but the incentives are temporarily, perversely aligned.
It is exactly because of the hardware: Itaniums are pretty much unobtainable these days. This makes supporting software for these machines difficult and very expensive. This is the natural consequence of the manufacturer also having obsoleted it.

Even quite outdated PC is trivial to obtain and support in comparison. Also for Amigas and C64s software maintenance is vastly easier since there are practical emulators.

Can we get a little link below the title that opens links up in a non pay walled link? You can't even read the first sentence of this article.
The EU is interested in fair competition. Apple has managed to provide a terrible cross-platform messaging experience to their own customers for years while successfully convincing everyone that the problem is due to every other phone besides theirs. I agree it's almost comical, but it certainly affects competition in a negative way.
Yeah this would have been better
Apple is big enough that they could make the carriers keep SMS. If a carrier tried to remove it and break "compatibility" with the iPhone, Apple would block that carrier from having iPhones altogether, which would decimate that carriers business. So through a causative chain, Apple could force carriers to keep SMS.
Right now, there isn't much duplication of what we're sending to each vendor, so I don't think we'd save a ton by consolidating, at least based on list prices. We could maybe negotiate better prices based on higher volumes, but I'm not sure if Airplane is spending enough at this point to get massive discounts there.

Another potential benefit would definitely be reduced complexity and better integration for the engineering team. So, for instance, you could look at a log and then more easily navigate to the UI for the associated trace. Currently, we do this by putting Honeycomb URLs in our Datadog log events, which works but isn't quite as seamless. But, given that our team is pretty small at this point and that we're not spending a ton of our time on performance optimizations, we don't feel an urgent need to consolidate (yet).
It will be interesting to see what color they choose for RCS. Right now, blue indicates an end-to-end encrypted message and green indicates not encrypted. Even when messaging between two Apple devices you can get a green bubble if, for some reason, the message is routed over SMS.

If it were up to me, encrypted RCS would be blue and not-encrypted RCS would be green.
No. They aren't. VW is. And VW, not the owner of the car, is controlling that tracking.

I'm arguing against a comment that implied tracking is good, even if it is controlled by others, because it might save a child. The best version of such a system is if it is owned by the government, not some company trying to make money off of it, so that's the version I decided to argue against.

That's not a red herring. It's steelmanning.
Objet printers use this tech, projet too
I guess I wasn't there so we can't settle he debate, but this smacks to me of cherry picking and survivorship bias. For every one of Newton's careful measurements, which I actually imagine he was mocked or dismissed for at the time, I'm sure there are just as many examples of unexpected outcomes, like manned flight, geocentrism, or evolution. Likely many more that seem expected and commonplace today, because they proved true, that we can't even recognize in retrospect.

Probably never. At the very least, RCS itself needs SMS for account provisioning on a new device.

I also don't see every business relying on SMS for B2C messaging (and in particular for SMS-OTP) switching to RCS anytime soon.
Already I bet stack overflow usage has gone down because LLMs can help fixing bugs.

I think the documentation, open source code, and code examples are more important training sets.

And in. my experience the code is often maybe 95% correct, so there will be a greater premium on expert developers who can spot and fix bugs (with the aid of LLMs, since stack overflow will no longer have any answers since no one will use it having moved to LLMs)

My research group used to use a Hollywood spotlight to simulate the lighting in orbit. These lights take a long time to power cycle, so once they're on you kind of want to keep them on, otherwise it's 15-30 minutes once you turn them off before they fully power up again.

So we left it on. After one test we left it pointed at our test article, which was made of styrofoam. After a couple of minutes it started smoking and melting. If we hadn’t smelled the smoke I'm certain it would have caught on fire.

We made very sure we never left it pointed at a fire sprinkler after that.

I guess dual SIM is different from having eSIM+physical SIM. Dual SIM typically allows both SIMs/phone-numbers to be active and when you receive a call, you will know which number is being called. With eSIM+physical SIM card, only one can be active at a time. The other has to be disabled. At least, this is what I found few years back.
Commercial Airline flights definitely don't crash "all the time."
Both iMessage and Webkit have to accept requests from unknown sources that can contain a wide variety of content type. some other content types, like EPS are themselves programming languages that could contain infiltration scripts. That is why Apple has dropped EPS support. Similar situation can happen for other kinds of image and video content.

I don't know much about how iMessage communication is implemented but it does offer end to end encryption and supports richer interaction and content than plain SMS does. that was one of the reasons that Apple marked SMS clients with the green bubbles to indicate not to expect the same interaction with them. It was some little shits that turned that into an anti-status symbol.
