I don't think the scams use links.

They post bank account details for the customer to send a payment to.

Manually typing a link may not seem suspicious to many customers anyway.

Edit: Looks like the scam may involve credit/debit cards and links. The messages may be sent to customers via email, and the links are clickable that way. Not sure if that's an email client thing or if Booking.com makes them clickable in HTML.

Sometimes the ephemerality of the medium is what makes it special. Radio exists just while you hear it. Having it be accessible everywhere via the internet ruins that sense of place. I don't know, maybe I'm just old.
A framework for writing Kubernetes operators in Python
Oper8 is a framework for writing kubernetes operators in python. It implements many common patterns used by large cloud applications that are reusable across many operator design patterns.
Maybe not in the minority for taking it as a signal to leave, but in the minority for actually acting on that signal.
I'm sorry, are you saying putting "get a great job" on paper and reading it repeatedly does anything at all to actually getting the job?

Could it be that such a huge goal as "be successful in my career" is just more important than the ones you put in Google docs?
“Trickle down” economics is an intentionally misleading metaphor. Water trickles down (but not up) because of gravity.
Money, on the other hand, circulates. When working class people buy gas at the pump, it benefits the likes of ExxonMobil. When they buy groceries, it benefits the likes of Cargill and ADM. A rising tide on the _demand_ side also raises all boats. Same logic.
Trickle down economics makes no more sense than trickle up economics. Each one prioritizes one demographic over the other. I think a more holistic view is what is needed.
Completely agree with this idea. And I would add a corollary...date estimates (i.e. deadlines) should also have error bars. After all, a date is a forecast. If a stakeholder asks for a date, they should also specify what kind of error bars they're looking for. A raw date with no estimate of uncertainty is meaningless. And correspondingly, if an engineer is giving a date to some other stakeholder, they should include some kind of uncertainty estimate with it. There's a huge difference between saying that something will be done by X date with 90% confidence versus three nines confidence.

I wrote "What Punch Cards Teach Us About AI Risk", and I was really surprised -- and frankly, disappointed -- that they pulled it. It was the #1 story on Lobsters when they pulled it, with plenty of comments (and some good discussion!). It was also shocking to me that their moderation involves scrubbing it from the site entirely; at least on HN, the story can get modded down, but if people still wish to discuss the topic, they can. (And in fact, I have seen some discussions that were too hot cool down and become reasonable when the stories themselves have been modded down.)

The whole thing left me with a very sour taste (and not for the first time!) about Lobsters. I will continue to check in there from time to time, but I will hesitate to submit stories or participate in discussion: the moderators are simply too capricious for my tastes -- and we clearly disagree about what is on topic and what is off topic for technologists. Conversely: Lobsters has reminded me how much I appreciate HN; thank you dang and other HN mods for everything you do!
When this first came out a year(ish?) ago, I remember seeing somewhere that they had received permission from Hexrays/Ilfak Guilfanov.
For comparison, Red Hat denote every other major release of OpenShift (4.8, 4.10, 4.12) as Extended Update Support releases, with 2 years of support.
From the FAQ, Hex-Rays actually sponsors the project:

> Vector 35 and Hex-Rays jointly sponsor the hosting on Digital Ocean as a community service.
We literally nuked Japan and intentionally carpet bombed civilian infrastructure in Germany.
> Unresolved comments represent action items for the change author to definitely address. These can be marked as “resolved” by the code author themselves when they reply to the comment.

I've always told the team that whoever comments is the one that marks it as resolved (we use github). Otherwise they just gotta go and open every single comment again, and sometimes the code author doesn't even it address on big changes.

This assumes the reviewer will comeback later to re-review it, of course.
> it's one of the best points of view on "conspiracies" I've ever heard.

It's actually how I often think of conspiracy. Not a bunch of men sitting in a room plotting together but a bunch of independent actors with convergent incentives. Also my litmus test for real bona fide conspiracy (Watergate or Contra Affair) vs crackpottery is if it can be boiled down to "wizards did it." It's always interesting that conspiracies work out to essentially making one feel safe in a world of all powerful but evil men rather than the discomfort of a chaotic world. Flat Earth stands out a bit because I still don't know who gains from it...

> I don't understand how did you get the impression that I was trying to be funny?

I didn't. I said Carlin was funny and that I was not. I honestly wasn't even aware you were referencing Carlin (at a direct level at least, since I did make the connection). It just reminded me of his statement (which now I understand as your intent. The subtle nod reference).
No, but I'm a mechanical engineer who's taken a subset of my uni's EE curriculum, done a fair amount of hobby electronics, read a lot about the SAE J1772 charging standard that applies here, and disassembled two commercial EVSEs (all in contemplation of building my own EVSE, which I haven't pulled the trigger on yet).

It turns out that the engineers who designed J1772 thought a fair amount about how to handle the connect/disconnect concerns that you raise (via the pilot signals and proximity microswitch) and they didn't just leave it to EVSE designers to YOLO it.

> I would want data sheets on the car/charging requirements, not measurements, to ensure this is true 100% of the time

The "datasheet" that you want is the J1772 standard. There are many free summaries of it, including https://openev.freshdesk.com/support/solutions/articles/6000... Scroll all the way to the bottom and read the section on "Proximity" to understand how the relays are not disconnected while large currents are flowing.
Mainly because the dead simple circuits (common-cathode class A amplification stages taken out of a textbook) produce the sought-after tones. Nothing needs to be contrived other than some resistor and capacitor values for a certain tonal profile you may be looking for.

I prefer to have solid state almost everything, including the power amp; but there should be a couple of tubes in there for making noise.
If the house rental market is clearing, and the house ownership market is clearing, it's difficult to take the premise of the article very seriously.
The resolution is simple, crack down hard on short term rentals and empty homes , ensure that only long term rentals or the owners who actually live in the house are allowed. or u have to pay a huge monthly tax or fine

Then the next step is to build like a crazy. The only way to cull the demand is to actually meet the demand. Just make the investment as unappealing as possible.

Whether these can be put into practice, that's another story
>If I can effectively rebut that commentary with a meaningless platitude

Therein lies the rub: you can't. Or, at least, didn't. Each of your statements is falsifiable, particularly the last, which is a confession masquerading as an accusation. There are few worse ways to "make progress" than to dismiss criticism of the status quo out-of-hand.
Many cities already have essentially this. Community radio. Usually on the left end of the dial near NPR and the christian music stations.
But even in academia, where supposedly "true science" is, if not done, at least pursued, uncertainty intervals are rarely, with respect to the times they would be needed, understood and used.

When I used to publish stats- and math-heavy papers in the biological sciences, very rarely the reviewers--and I used to publish in intermediate and up journals--were paying any attention to the quality of the predictions, beyond a casual look at the R2 or R2-equivalents and mean absolute errors.
Surely, a law would not be needed to tell a business to terminate based on hitting order.

Very nice. A parallel, I've been working on an emulator project recently, implementing my own disassembler, and I keep thinking about how I would turn patterns of machine code into a generalized form, which could then be turned into something like C-like pseudo-code, so it's been really compelling me lately to implement my own toy decompiler
Sounds like you work best on a small team if that's your focus. Medoum-large ones already have a proven product (or proven experience). You don't focus on blazing gast iterations at that stage unless you are in early R&D or something evergreen.

And well, if you're primary motivation is Financial: okay, you're not being paid to move quickly. Or if you hope to move up the ladder quickly you gotta deal with the office politics. Which includes delays in communication. React to those lapses as you feel is appropriate to your goals and personality.

The checks are at the point of embarkation before you get on the train. You go through French passport control in London and British passport control in Paris/Brussels/Amsterdam.
> while the actual creators get pennies.

…

> And then all of the actually interesting smaller companies and open source models are screwed.

The argument here is totally disingenuous.

You can tldr it like this:

Either a) you pay people for their content, which makes things prohibitively expensive for small companies.

Or b) you can screw artists over (again) and give them literally nothing so you enable small companies to use and create AI models with legal protections.

Now, those are legitimate considerations; you can argue that for society as a whole having lots of small companies is better than having a few big ones.

…but you can’t help but look at that outcome and go:

What about the artists?

Do they get nothing? Is that ok?

Is it not a little bit greedy and selfish to say you take everything, pay nothing and screw them over?

Spotify and Apple Music aren’t great; they don’t pay well.

…but it’s something right?

How can any reasonable person sit there and say it would be better to have 20 different Spotify clones that paid no one anything other than their share holders?

It’s greedy and selfish.

People deserve to be paid for their work.
I moved from Croc to wormhole-william as the author of Croc has dodged a bunch of security-related questions in various issues and I didn't feel comfortable continuing to use it.

There was this fun little number a couple of years back https://redrocket.club/posts/croc/
This sounds like a pump-and-dump :)

But really...how much could they have earned if they invested it elsewhere instead? It seems silly for any country to invest in crypto. Nations should use their money to invest in themselves and build their economy, not to park it in crypto.
Is that really possible? Can hardware ever be that powerful in such a small size to run AI while also being profitable to the company?

Also, what do you think would be the usecases of this AI on the edge that we already don't have? and what kind of interfaces would open up?
in designing HTML, the programming language, i tried to stay as close as possible to existing semantics in HTML, the markup language, as I could, so that HTML, the markup language, developers would be comfortable with it in a minimum amount of time

most HTML, the markup langauge, developers are used to anchor tags (i.e. the <a> tag) with an href that begins with a hash "jumping" to that element. Therefore I decided to take that well known semantic and integrate it into HTML, the programming language.

there are multiple examples of loops using this (as well as the <i> "if" conditional) tag that I think show how intuitive this will be for most HTML, the markup language, developers, but of course research is ongoing in this and other matters

And the the "tolerant" Left wonders why the Right is so upset at them, and the response globally is the election of strong pro-nationalist, "populist" candidates.

I could be mistaken on the form of sea transit. I just know it gets refined in Canada (which also seems like a waste: why not refine at source?).

Sea transit is cheap, sugarcane grows better in the tropics than beets in cooler places. Harder to harvest below-ground stuff.

Canada used to subsidize/protect sugar beet producers (to keep them competitive), but largely got out of it.

Maybe that’s why we still refine it: because the plants still exist.

Has there been a writeup on Vancouver BC and their taxes / rules etc they've imposed and outcomes? Would be interesting to know if that has moved the needle at all? It would be also interesting to understand how we could differentiate between "I'm buying a house to live in for a pile of money and hope that at worst it's price follows inflation so that my large pile of money does not devalue.." vs. "I'm an medium to large size investment company that purchases your house with the goal of making it an airbnb or doing some minimal level of work to spruce up the house to then rent out to corporate housing for a local big-tech company down the street for 8k per month"..
Apple probably asked and paid for it. Isn't there potential in accelerating LLMs and transformers on smartphones? Most of what they are good at fits the smartphone use case well.
How so? I'm sure thousands of years ago when paper was introduced SOMEONE was "the problem with you is that you're reading on paper and not stone!"

If your argument is that staring a screen is bad for your eyes, I'd agree with you there, but that has NOTHING to do with the mental stimulation of reading. You are still reading, stimulating your brain. How those words are presented to you does not change that.

The "rewires your brain" argument is in regards to short form videos and other stuff that is to stimulate low attention spans.

If I read a book be it physical or on a kindle or the kindle app on my phone does not change anything.
I personally don't want the headaches of being a landlord, but I have invested in apartment real-estate investment trusts (REITs). Such REITs do build housing, and I think that without them, housing costs would be even higher.

I'm confused by this comment. It's written as if federated social media is a hypothetical technology someone is proposing. It isn't. It's a real technology with dozens of interoperable implementations, thousands of running servers, and millions of users. A precursor of the currently popular ActivityPub protocol used by Mastodon launched 15 years ago with Laconica and has been under continuous development since.
ah, a good idea

Django is such a lovely framework I can't speak higher praises of it. I'm blessed to still be able to use it in my day to day work. It's maybe not the most flashy framework out there these days but Django and Rails are really the Toyota Corollas and Honda Civics of the web dev world that often go so underappreciated for their unfussy reliability. :)
That's pretty new in the grand scheme of things? They started making things under their brand once they became established.

I could see Spotify doing the same thing. Particularly around live ticketing, merch, etc.

I've seen zero evidence that it did. Propaganda, sure. But 'disinformation'? No.

Probably more than three years. It feels like people latching onto the profit opportunity to shore up eastablishmen narratives under a fancy new buzzword more than a real objective science.

- Because it's not a hardware project at all then. Using transistors versus tubes is still a hardware project on the same level of abstraction.

- You've not gotten away from hardware; it's still there.

- You're using billions of transistors to simulate the operation of dozens of transistors/tubes, which is inelegant. The chip with those transistors may be small, much smaller than your project, but, in theory, your design with the few dozen transistors could be shrunken down to a chip that would be barely visible to the naked eye.
Hey, finally got around to reading the article. I have been grappling with the convoluted, fucked up mess that is offline first over the last 6 months. I really truly thought that this was a solved problem which the likes of facebook, instagram, etc have solved a long time ago and that there was some open source version copying whatever underlying mechanism they created.

As for the prior art, I was surprised you didn't mention watermelonDB. It sounds like what you are building but specifically for react native. I tried to use it but there were lots of really annoying api choices regarding how the querying works in the front end and their choices on how their ORM works. But the sync methodology they use seems to be sound, and as they say, they've thought long and hard about. https://watermelondb.dev/docs/Sync/Intro

The project as it is seems pretty low level. Are you planning on adding and ORM layer, or leave that up to someone else?

The last question that I always have is, how would this project create a facebook app clone? IE the user will almost always have subsets of tables that are much much smaller than the full tables the the backend has.

IE, a user should have various posts from the feed, and various users, photos, comments and liked tables downloaded for the next 30 minutes of offline activity lets say. In this system, it seems like we are syncing entire databases. But syncing small slivers of the entire system seems to be what a lot of your typical REST based apps do. Yet it is a problem I haven't been able to solve cleanly or with a unified plan of attack

Thanks
It makes sense, it's a perfect advertisement of their superiority.
If it's just a passport check they're after, that's fairly easy (though there's always potential for somebody to duck into a restroom or similar).

Customs declarations are usually made at the entry-point (at least with international air travel) - but I don't know how trains do that today (all my train travel was Schengen zone in the late 90s - just passport checks on the train, and only between some countries).
If string theory was disproven we could still have experts that were former string theory experts. The best programmer-musician-firefighter-chef in the world might be less impressive than you think.

I don't see it mentioned, but there's a recent addition that greatly improved my turnaround time to review incoming CLs: A prompt will show up in the corner about the next pending CL that you can approve, when you give LGTM to the CL that you are reviewing.

It's kind of like those "Customers who bought this also bought" prompts on e-commerce websites. Only here it slightly nudges you to have a "CL review streak" and clean up your review queue.
