Because the problems of the US regulatory systems are not endemic to the tech. The fascination is we know it should be very cost competitive (in fact cheaper than fossil fuels), can run 24/7 (not true for renewables except hydro), and can fully replace all existing fossil fuel plant use cases (not true for renewables except for hydro), and basically has as much energy as we would ever need to build (not true for hydro as there’s only so many rivers in the world and same for wind which is similarly not evenly distributed), and can be built anywhere (applies more to wind than solar but still a little true for solar). In other words a lot of proven upside and little downside. The frequently mentioned ones are safety (completely solved by next gen designs of SMRs/thorium/etc) and cost (improved by SMRs but actually largely a political self inflicted problem).

Basically it and hydro are the only green tech that have shown the ability to completely displace the need for fossil fuels. With solar/wind we’re left with a hybrid grid and hoping that battery tech improves to the point where we overbuild enough solar that we can recharge batteries with excess capacity for nighttime use (the price of which is frequently ignored when discussing solar as a grid energy). In other words - it’s an open question as to solar and wind can replace base load requirements (which are substantial). If they can’t then we’re left with fossil fuels, nuclear, and wind. As we see in China, they’re building a crapton of fossil fuel (specifically coal) power plants that they will run overnight / emergency situations during the day. That’s progress but it’s a long way away from net 0. That’s why they’re also investing in their capability to build fission. that’s why you’ll see their fission projects finish on time and get cheaper over time. Fission is “more expensive” not because of the tech but because we don’t make enough of it to recoup economies of scale. You’d see the same effect with solar but because solar doesn’t pose as much threat to fossil fuels in the near term people don’t really care (it’s a very long transition period - I fully expect us to not achieve net 0 by 2100 unless we switch to nuclear). Keep in mind that solar and wind also can’t solve major transportation use cases with ships and planes which can’t be electrified (even an open question for semis but at least plausible there over time). Planes likely are the hardest but putting reactors that can’t meltdown onto ships sounds like a no brainer and would cut a huge green house gas emitter and an insane amount of pollution going into the oceans.
This sample was (very) different from the original LK99.

Sure, but no one was arguing that ought to have been legal or that the phone system would be in the wrong to attempt to patch exploits found by hacking.

Their Blue Box efforts were very cool! So is the coding that let Beeper do this.

But it is mystifying to me that people are arguing it is illegitimate (under our current system) for Apple to try to secure its system.

Some have suggested courts are less willing to enforce "click-wrap" agreements against consumers than they are against corporations. The later might be more likely to read and thus consent. Did Beeper read the Apple ToS. What do you think.

Perhaps the outcome of challenging Apple's ToS depends on where the case would be filed. For example, 5th Cir would favour Beeper as it follows Vault v Quaid. 1st Cir follows Bowers v Baystate and would favour Apple. 8th Cir has followed Bowers (See Davidson, the Blizzard case).

"[P]rivate parties are free to contractually forego the limited ability to reverse engineer a software product under the exemptions of the Copyright Act[,]" Bowers v. Baystate Techs, Inc., 320 F.3d 1317, 132526 (Fed. Cir. 2003)

But note that in Bowers, Baystate did not actually attempt to plead fair use or copyright misuse. It only focused on preemption. The Bowers case is used to argue against reverse engineering as fair use but Baystate never asserted that defense.

The so-called "tech" companies and their supporters would prefer Bowers to apply everywhere. But it does not apply everywhere.

What is more interesting than the copyright issues, IMHO, is the idea of an antitrust illegality defense to breach of a software license. From 1996,

Samuelson and Scotchmer mentioned it again in 2002.

"While antitrust and competition law may regulate antireverse engineering clauses in an appropriate case or context, no such claim has as yet been brought, let alone sustained."

I disagree. There is a clear line in many business from "cool hacking shit" to "cool/profitable business", but that hacker spirit is lost every single time.

The "hacking spirit" is never about money either - see any 90s/00s movie about hacking, or any of the 80s/90s manifestos online.

These aren't freedom fighters, trying to fight Goliath and bring messaging to the people. The original project they built on was. Beeper are profiteers, seeking to middle man some money. There nothing wrong with that - good on them - but that's hardly "hacker spirit".
Of course I am. But it doesn't seem worthwhile to watch unknown hours of videos to answer my question.

As to the topology, sure, that's one approach. It requires many more tunnels, which is more expensive, and acceleration/deceleration lines.

I've seen off-ramps fully back up to the highway lane. Why wouldn't that happen here?

I've also seen people stopped in the acceleration lane waiting for a gap in traffic. If there are fewer, bigger vehicles each with more passengers then there are more gaps.

So you can see why it's not clearly obvious to me that many small cars with point-to-point service is more economical.

There is a lot of essentialism that went into initial efforts at taxonomy and a lot that people believe instinctively that they bring to their own modern understanding of it.

By now it is agreed that the correct use of taxonomy is to classify organisms in groups according to common descent from earlier organisms. This was not true as recently as the 1980s, when my mother's college biology textbook included a "teach the controversy" section explaining that that was one approach to taxonomy, but there were other approaches that also made very good points. [Editorial note: there were other approaches, but of course it isn't true that they made good points. They made points like "it's important for each taxon at a given level to contain the same number of species as the other taxa at that level".]

Anyway, once you lose the essentialism, you discover that there is no way to determine what label ["kingdom" / "class" / "genus"...] should be given to a taxon. [= a group of organisms sharing common descent from an ancestral organism.] So you see that divisions between taxa that are important, but that don't match up to traditional boundaries, are given names like subspecies, subfamily, and infraorder.

You might consider why you think it's absurd to unite the categories of "cats" and "dogs", but you see no problem uniting "dachshunds" [tiny and oblong, aggressive, like entering burrows to hunt] with "newfoundlands" [huge, affectionate, like rescuing humans from water]. Just the size differences are such that a female dachshund is unlikely to be able to breed with a male newfoundland. But also consider that rescuing drowning humans is such an important part of the newfoundland lifestyle that they have webbed feet.

It does feel like you should know... but knowing all the parts does not mean you know the whole. The rules of chess do not make you a gramdmaster. The axioms of geometry, of predicate calculus do not make you know all theorems and proofs. Being able to program does not mean you know all programs.
Beeper has been around since 2020 and its primary product (now called beeper cloud) is an all-in-one chat application which supports many protocols from the same client, not just imessage. Even if imessage/beeper mini is the product generating discussion right now, beeper cloud has been the primary focus of their company since the start and beeper mini is just a recent tangent. They use matrix bridges as the backend and some of the devs now working for beeper were already working on the open source bridges which beeper now uses even before beeper the company existed. Beeper was the first organization (and one of the few it seems) to become a corporate sponsor of the matrix foundation, and they also routinely sponsor developers to work on the open source bridges that make up much of their infrastructure, even beyond the ones they hired on as staff.

I'm not sure how all this points to "get-rich-quick" silicon valley startup type to you but the behavior looks pretty different to me. Given their history, my guess is they put beeper mini out there primarily to put pressure on apple. If apple doesn't shut it down, cool, everyone has access to imessage through beeper. If apple does shut it down, at least it leaves little doubt about the situation: interoperability is not impossibly hard, apple really doesn't care about the security or privacy of their customers as much as they like to say they do, and at the end of the day imessage is only limited to apple devices because apple is apple. (For most companies I would say imessage is locked to apple devices because it's about the money but apple is one of those companies that takes weirdly principled positions even when it makes no sense, kind of similar to nintendo in that way.)

I suppose if all I had seen was the past month of buzz around them then I might perceive them differently.

Oh shit, a wild nuance appears. The yt-dlp (and all alternative YouTube clients) are accessing open endpoints into YouTube. While YouTube can choose to block these things the clients are not accessing some non-public API. Having been following various yt-dl forks for the past few years, YouTube blocking them is annoying but within their rights as the hosts of the service. If yt-dlp was charging money or whining to regulators about YouTube's actions around their own service I'd feel differently towards them.

Apple does not offer any sort of public access to iMessage, Beeper has to not just reverse engineer the iMessage protocol but also spoof their client identity. Beeper can keep up their cat and mouse game but whining to regulators and pretending they are doing something noble is ridiculous. They're trying to grab headlines to get either bought out or investment dollars.

If they want to reverse engineer iMessage they can take their licks and keep up with Apple's efforts to lock them out.
Stuff like this doesn’t naturally fall on a bell curve. Most hotels are great. Most restaurants are pretty good. There is no such thing as an objective 5.

Hey if Beeper successfully parlays this into regulators forcing Apple to open up iMessage then I'll pay them on principle.

Housing is an auction, and a bet on how well the area is going to do. If you live in a place that has very high demand, prices are going to go up if there's no building being done. But it's not all rising prices: My house's value hasn't outpaced inflation through the last 20 years, because it's in the wrong part of St Louis. People with blue collar occupations have no problem buying around me: You can buy a 4 bedroom house for under 300k, and their salaries have gone up far more than the price of the houses.

So house pricing problems? Just localized regulatory problems. We'd have a much smaller problem if more metro areas were attractive to people, instead of having such a big separation between of winners and losers.

> Really? It's never insisted upon for any core service?

You might need to qualify "core service" here, but no. Calls, SMS, MMS, internet all work fine without an account. You need an account to download apps from the app store, but that's a different argument. If you wanted to, there are various methods to load apps up without an account too (side loading via Xcode, MDM, etc).
I recently was shocked when using my banking app, you type the account number of another customer at the same bank (6 to 7 digits) and the app will fill out the name of the account owner (and ask you to check it is the person you want to send the money to), I really felt at unease by it and hope they limit this kind of lookup to a certain number of requests per user/day or someone could easily get access to all of the bank's customer names and their respective account number, this would be insanely dangerous.
Time. Ironically University does not allow students time to truly digest things, to dwell on them to follow them where they lead. There's always another assignment, another claas, another exam.

In one sense you have a lot of time now, but you are being drowned in new concepts and ideas. Too many to properly digest.

Goal 1 is to pass, and get your degree. Goal 2 is to set aside some time to explore and dig. You can't assimilate everything, but you can take this opportunity to see what excites you, what interests you.

Cast a broad net. I took a few electives that were "interest only" (unrelated to my major). I sat in a few random classes of random subjects. I connected with others doing the same major and we spent time going down rabbit holes together.

Mostly though, you'll have a lifetime of life. Sometimes you'll have no time (baby in the house) at other times you'll have gaps to fill. Without the pressure of an exam you'll be able to take all the time you need.

Turns out, I never really needed or cared about the math. So I don't spend a lot of time on that. Other things did grab my fancy, and I've gone down those roads along the way.

Most of all remember that learning doesn't stop when you leave. It's just getting started.
The pockets of the entire economy. Ultimately, food is mostly sold on futures contracts, so realistically the end consumer is currently paying the price from one to two years ago when the farm gate price was double what it is now. Within the next year or so, retail food will no doubt crash hard as those old contracts start to clear and the much lower contracts of today start to come into force.

Taking a couple of tennis balls to the local park and throwing them with your kids costs about $5, depending on how many you lose. Going for a run along the beach costs a bus fare.

I was involved in two fender benders. In both of them the other driver was at fault.

In both of them the other drivers asked me to settle without insurance and said they would lie to the insurance company if I chose to go that route. One was a powerful looking executive type who worked at Apple. She said to my face that she would lie. She even said it on camera audio (I was openly taking a video of our cars and the damage) and on Apple property in the presence of her coworker with a security person / witness nearby. She’s lucky I’m not the vindictive type.

I didn’t accept their offers to forego insurance, because I knew I had done nothing wrong and I had video footage from 8 cameras, because Tesla.

And guess what. I would get counted, twice, in the statistics with the approach in the article, because I went through insurance when a lot of people would not have done so, had they been driving any other car.

So... don’t believe this BS article. Also accidents should be counted per mile, not per person, and fault should be factored in imho. There are plenty of ways to slice data, but some are more misleading than others.

So if your ISP like AOL makes all of their webpages nice and fast but competitors slower and uglier artificially then is AOL abusing their market position here? We already set the precedent here that this is market abuse. This new case is no different.

Also, Apple knows this. They know they'd lose that's why they are already ahead of this by announcing adoption of RCS in 2024.

How can anyone presume that Apple would stand some sort of ideological ground here? We literally have emails where Apple c-suits say that iMessages mistreating android benefits them and they don't want to fix this. This is such a clear case I don't understand how anyone can defend this.
