I mean, asking them to plop their cli docker setup into a yaml file isn't exactly a difficult task. I think it's probably more correct to consider docker-compose an integral part of docker rather than a superfluous abstraction layer.

Brilliant. Though I was a little sad all the numbered footnotes don't actually exist. The universe of this story would be a fun rabbit hole to go down.
I'm from the Netherlands and I know plenty of people who have iPhones but I also know (and am) plenty people with androids. People use either WhatsApp or Telegram. Isn't iMessage just texting within a walled garden?
Are you autistic? I ask because this is HN where lots of people are, and choosing to speak the literary norm in countries with diglossia is often associated with autism. For example, foreigners in Finland are urged to quickly get to grips with puhekieli (spoken Finnish) because speaking kirjakieli (the literary norm) in everyday contexts, or writing it in chats, is “something only autistic people do”.
Here’s a link to a video of a ZX81 version, in a similar vein.

BRINC Drones | https://brincdrones.com/ | Onsite in Seattle | Full-time | $150-225k + equity

BRINC Drones helps first responders with products that quickly and effectively respond to emergencies. Our technology allows first responders to get eyes and ears on what's happening in indoor structures when it's too dangerous for people to enter - whether it be a fire, medical emergencies, violence, or search and rescue. In March 2023, we released the Lemur 2, our latest and most advanced drone, and we started shipping it to customers the same year.

In addition to launching more advanced drones, we're also expanding our software ecosystem into realtime monitoring and fleet management, and we recently shipped the first version of our first web app: LiveOps. This app gives drone operators and first response teams access to real-time live-streaming drone data such as visual and thermal video feeds, 3D map data via point clouds, and a myriad of drone telemetry – it’s essentially a web-based drone fleet management software. But our vision isn’t just fleet management; LiveOps represents a critical part of BRINC’s transition from a company that just sells drones to a company that sells entire drone programs: we want to build out the entire drone ecosystem (both hardware and software) for our customers.

It’s an ambitious goal, but it’s one that we feel confident about – we’ve got a lot of interest from customers in what we’ve built so far, and we are seeking both a full-stack and a backend/platform engineer to join our engineering team and own the development of this web app and cloud ecosystem.

Job Postings:

I mean if you imagine a scenario like leaving a vehicle running such that a human child could drive it around out of control, and to protect people from the vehicle you killed the kid, we'd undoubtedly be complaining about both letting an innocent being in your care get into the situation where they posed a threat to others, as well as dealing with that threat by killing the innocent being.

The sin is not killing the chimpanzees, the sin is creating a situation where they had to kill the chimpanzees.
The fact that the head of another Swedish wildpark got convicted of manslaughter over the death of a keeper. Given that, it would be hard for those in charge to allow any worker to take risks to save these escaped animals. Even if the worker was willing to do so.

That answers how much risk we're willing to tolerate.
So we can't have a well-functioning system because that would interfere with some people making money. We truly do live in sad times.
The article is probably too political to spawn any real discussion, but I just want to chime in to say that I completely gave up on the news in 2015 and it hasn't impacted me in any negative way. Anything important going on that I need to know about will eventually filter down to me by other means and I'll then research into things as needed, but I will never again watch or listen to the news, read a newspaper, etc. I would highly recommend it.
I don't mean add special tokens, but make the vocab only the set of possible cards. each card is a token.

a simple input might be <cards you hold> 1 14 56</end><cards to pick> 5 64 2</end> -> predicted token is the draft pick.

Then train a transformer based network from scratch.

I'm 90% satisfied with mine:

* 500/500 for $60, can go up 5gbps symmetrical if I wanted

* While not advertised as static, I've had the same IPv4 IP since I checked a year ago

* No significant downtime

* The provided router has a single 2.5gbps port and has 802.11ax

Disatisfied:

* The ONT and gateway is a Nokia BGW320 provided by AT&T that I must have. I cannot provide my own. There are some work-arounds with pfsense [1] and bridging 802.1X traffic.

* The Nokia ONT/Gateway kinda sucks and it's ARP tables fill up and the general networking of it are fairly basic and what you'd expect for some $30 TP-Link.

* I'm fairly confidant that AT&T uses CGNAT. I haven't been able to get Plex remote access to work correctly.

I personally don’t. I used to lose my mind over the thought of my confidential documents being leaked. Then after seeing how poorly personal information is handled, I realised it’s almost a guarantee. A few things from Australia (which has good privacy laws) that made me recognise the futility of it all:

1) the large hack of Optus in which about half of the population had their credit card details stolen.
2) the large hack of Medibank in which the details of a large portion of private health insurance customer details were stolen.
3) I applied for a mortgage and found out every 2-bit mortgage broker is emailed 100s if not 1000s of sensitive ID documents every year and they definitely do not go through their email and delete them after the closure of deals.
4) Most companies in Australia only require a name, address, and, birth date to verify identity which is easily found with five minutes of searching most of the time.
5) I set up a pin with Telstra that should have blocked administrative changes on my account for years. One day I called in, got my password ready, and they didn’t ask for it. They just did it anyway. It was entirely futile.

IMO the only way that privacy will ever become respected is if we move the onus for fraud onto the actual victims of fraud: the companies. This is the whole ancient joke about someone’s identity being “stolen”. It wasn’t stolen, your verification procedures ultimately failed as a business and you are trying to divert responsibility to avoid having to suffer a loss. This is one of the reasons I use my credit card exclusively these days - if it used fraudulently I know that I can charge back, and that’s about the only mechanism I can use to truly prevent unauthorised access to my money.
I'm sorry but don't understand exactly what this is. Is it a universal text app that you can use for all your contacts? Or do you need to know if the person you're texting with has an iPhone or not?

Given the excitement and number of upvotes I'm obviously missing something, but I'm at a loss.
Main view? Like the repository overview with the readme, files, etc. or where do you mean?
Selectively quoting from the news article to omit the reason is exactly what I'm accusing you of.
There’s no need for Apple to react to this project at all.

Eventually, someone will send spam using this app, at which point automated systems at Apple will “console ban” the hardware identifier shared by all of the app’s customers. The project presumably has a library of valid hardware identifiers collected and ready to go, and eventually that’ll be drained by spammers faster than revenue versus device purchasing allows for. Apple can just wait silently as the app exhausts their pool of hardware identifiers, each banned by pre-existing anti-spam automation, without ever acknowledging their existence.
Can't comment on whether it works or not, but it sounds like there's a mix-up here. On iOS, it would be their bubble that is either blue or green when messaging you, not yours. To an iOS user, everyone else is a grey bubble.
Most companies that care will run everything though an AB test, the number of AB tests is physically limited by traffic volume and the team in charge of measuring the results of the AB tests is not the team that created the experiment. That makes it much harder to p-hack since you cannot re-run experiments infinitely on a laptop, and the measurement team is judged on the accuracy of their forecasts versus the revenue impact.
awesome. nothing on thingiverse has ever search-matched for "ADM-3a" for me. cheers!

I read this for the first time years ago and I still think about it a few times per month at least.
To me, the more concerning paragraph is the next one:

> Note: The binary that generates this “validation data” is highly obfuscated. pypush sidesteps this issue by using a custom mach-o loader and the Unicorn Engine to emulate an obfuscated binary. pypush also bundles device properties such as the serial number in a file called data.plist, which it feeds to the emulated binary.

The binary being emulated was extracted from an old macOS version and is hosted on GitHub: https://github.com/JJTech0130/nacserver. Apple obviously holds the copyright on this binary, and issuing a takedown would be the easiest way to sink this project. I wonder if the Beeper Android app also includes the file, that would be legally problematic.
When there's money involved, the results are way more dramatic.

If Beeper was free, sure, they wouldn't bother that much.

But Beeper relies on this business model. Apple and co wont let this slip.
Surprisingly, it is true:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geothermal_energy#Resources

I don't think the finer legal points matter too much. If Apple wants to sue them, they'll sue them, regardless of legal merit. And I suspect Beeper is betting they can make their case from a more philosophical angle, such that it's irrelevant what grounds Apple cites when suing them. Beeper will fight it either way.

I'm an Apple user who has no need for this app. But I really appreciate that Beeper has the balls to reverse engineer the protocol and build a business around it while fully expecting a lawsuit. That's some old school hacker shit and I'm here for it.

Apple tried and failed to sue Corellium for emulating their hardware, and now Corellium has a viable business around it. I don't see why Beeper should fare any differently. They just need to be prepared for a fight, both legally (lawsuits) and technically (ongoing game of cat-and-mouse).
The real danger I see is targeted AI scams against high value targets.

But his son already did the work to add his school! I don't see why adding one random middle school requires that all 13,000 be added and kept up to date. Wikipedia has all sorts of inconsistencies in what is covered, because it is so driven by volunteers and what they want to invest time into. I don't see how people adding public institutions that they are interested in adding goes against the spirit or practical realities of Wikipedia.

Where have you looked?
I sit in front of my work laptop which is signed into my work apple account. My iPhone is signed into my personal Apple account. I cannot iMessage from the keyboard because they won't play together. I've been using Cloud Beeper since early summer, and it makes the two apple systems play nice together. I also have a Windows machine signed in to it, but that's a nice to have.
Such a "waste of life". On one hand, the guy doesn't really look like a "bad guy" with a habit of nefarious or negligent doing, and nobody got hurt in the accident. On the other hand, we simply cannot let thing type of careless action go unpunished.

Ask HN: Looking for Thesis Project Inspiration
Never thought I would get here, but these are desperate times. For context, I am currently deep in my degree in Cybersecurity and have finally reached the dreaded point where I have to pick a topic for my master's thesis. Needless to say, I knew this moment would come eventually, but it inevitably still caught me off guard, especially since we have received little to no academic guidance in choosing a topic. Now, with 1 month left to my official start, I am still without a clear topic.

This is not to say I haven't done my due diligence in trying to find one. The most fleshed out thesis proposal I have so far is one about elaborating some kind of framework (or tool) for security in multi cloud environments. Initially I was very pleased with the topic's potential. I even found a professor willing to be my supervisor. However, I realised I might have bitten off more than I could chew, given my limited experience with cloud (a handful of summer internships working with AWS) and timeframe (5 months), which would not be enough to adequately cover such a complex topic.

As such I am now turning to you guys to ask for your professional opinion. I don't have extensive experience in one particular field, but what I do have is a lot of motivation to do deliver a good thesis. Also, no courses starting from January means I will have time to fully focus on it. What do you guys think? Should I try to reduce the scope of my current topic to make it realistic, e.g., maybe only look at AWS? Do you have any suggestions for finding an appropriate topic or any topic suggestions? My main interests are networking, OS security, communication protocols and web security, but I am open to anything, as long as it's accessible and realistic for my timeframe. This thesis will be a culmination of my academic work and I want to get this right, so any advice you have would be greatly appreciated.
I don't know if he was nervous, or just generally isn't a great communicator, but those answers weren't very good. It was if he was repeating memorized snippets from a product announcement, rather than discussing a technical topic he had a knowledgeable grasp of.
Nothing's thing was a branded version of Sunbird https://www.sunbirdapp.com/ which is technically similar to the iMessage part of Beeper Cloud. It is essentially a way for you to login with your Apple ID on a Mac Mini in a server farm, and then interact with its desktop iMessage client from an Android app.

This was done because Apple obfuscates how its notification system works, so the cheapest short-term solution is to just use real Apple hardware.

When Nothing released it, it was found to have many flaws, which is where that video comes in. Nothing unreleased it and hasn't followed up since.

Beeper Mini uses the long-term solution of reverse engineering Apple's notification system so that it can run independently of an Apple device.

The TiVo slide remote was cool. Check WeakKnees or AVS forum for that release date. They will have anit announced or archived. Ours was topside/bottom side with no moving parts. It was flip-flop modality. The concept was “don’t look” on the Directional side and type or search on the keyboard side.
I also had one. 1tb+octane cache.

It actually was a net decrease in performance! The reason is that first writes would saturate the cache SSD. Then the octane driver software must manually flush the cache to the main SSD.

What happened was that the laptop CPU actually heated up faster doing this, and reached throttle temps sooner.

I disabled the optane function and the performance increased to something typical.

You have 6 comments from your account and one of them is this:

> I'm one of the engineers behind Dropbase.

So I hope this isn't the first time you've seen this.
You misunderstand how TTL errors are signaled.

In IPv4, ICMP is used to send TTL exceeded messages regardless of what upper level protocol was used in the packet that expired in transit. UDP, TCP, ICMP, doesn’t matter.

The slides you linked to are correct, in general, about router slow path behavior, but that isn’t what makes UDP ping “more reliable”. It’s “more reliable”, theoretically, because UDP is less likely to be subject to indiscriminate filtering than ICMP.

Additionally, generally only ICMP sent to or generated from a router goes through the slow path. An IP packet being sent through a router generally goes through that device’s fast path, regardless of the payload type.
> I think if you bring up a dystopian nightmare, it assumes someone in power acting in bad faith.

I don't agree with this. I think it's entirely possible for a dystopian nightmare to happen without anyone acting in bad faith at all.

"The road to hell is paved with good intentions" is a common phrase for a reason.
It's not so much that it's "more" in the sense of more of the same, like, e.g. requiring 2 different passwords. That's a waste of time. But 2FA makes the attackers job much more difficult. If someone steals my password or compromises a key, then they still need to hijack my SIM for SMS or steal my phone to get a code from my authenticator app. That's 2 completely different kinds of shenanigans that need to be successful.
As others pointed out, you used official Apple hardware.

Now you're replacing that with Apple's own infrastructure.

They won't like this and I really hope an eventual C&D from Apple, Meta and Signal won't affect the development of the Mautrix bridges.
