It really depends on your threat model, like anything else with privacy and security. Storing the tapes out of site would probably work, honestly on-prem is so uncommon that I'd expect any intruder to think the cameras are connected to an online service anyway.

If I wanted to get clever I'd have a dummy setup of some kind. Stash a few real enough looking and literally label it "cameras". I'm not worried about defeating Danny Ocean here, I'd be surprised if an intruder even looked for the storage system let alone would recognize it.

it really depends on how you get value out of it. tax deferred and tax exempt are still ammunition. and its important to load them up with as much money as possible, and then they grow tax free from there on.

It's in a bomb-proof vault with tremendous amounts of on-call security and police. The second a bank alarm goes off it's swarmed with cops, well before anyone could ever open the vault.

If they have a phone I presume they could list it on ebay or facebook market for some portion of its new cost and take it in a shopping cart to a pack and ship place or haul shit to an unscrupulous pawn shop.

The "actions against international shipping" (objectively: indiscriminate and murderous piracy) have done nothing to deter the IDF, but have harmed people throughout the region that depend on the navigability of the Red Sea and supply chains. I object to the claim that the ICJ effort is somehow connected to what Iran and Ansar Allah are doing.

There's a further irony to appealing jointly to the ICJ, an instrument of international law, and piracy, opposition to which is the literal original basis for all international law.

I’m not even sure what we are debating. Spark is for big data work, it isn’t something you would typically use as a general purpose database backing your application. My original point way back is that expecting customers to learn an entirely new paradigm for storing and querying data is a poor decision, and limits your work to niche use cases. Spark has a large niche but it isn’t comparable to MySQL / Postgres or other newish data stores like Dynamo.

Furthermore any competent engineer knows SQL because ORMs are cumbersome and annoying for anything except basic use.
Ask HN: How will content attribution happen in the post-LLM age?

My reply was to contextualize that it wasn't a lie. Maybe a poor choice of words, but given the context on the page, it's clear what it is talking about, which isn't the application being cross platform. A lie implies deception, which I think given the context on the page there wasn't any intention to deceive, just poorly chosen words that can have different meanings depending on the context.

From Poland: obligatory non-renunciable 24-month warranty of fitness for the intended purpose for consumers. Instructions required in Polish. Detailed information about qualities of goods sold is compulsory (e.g. specification of components for a computer, just model number is not enough).

This is essentially client side TLS, which browsers cut because the ux was bad? Only now you can backdoor/mitm/typosquat a website, rather than attack the major browsers or the os?

And as I understand it, there's no way to verify you're talking to the right person, so sharing a secret via signal is strictly better?
Could also see an implementation where you generate a keypair per secret that saves a hashid (or just an incrementing integer) that you add to the URL fragment. The original sender's browser can then retrieve the private key in localstorage by that hashid. Now secrets can be kept or deleted individually, or given separate expirations.

The only issue is that you can't magically remove the encrypted data in the URL you sent over, so it's really just removing your _own_ access to the data.

Expr 1.16
It's kinda both. In NZ in the 90s, residential care for people with severe mental illness was replaced with "community care" where all those patients be helped to go flatting the community, and have their condition treated so well that there was no need for residential care facilities.

It's far better! It's more respectful! It's also incidentally going to let us trim millions from the Health budget so we can pay for the tax cuts for high earners!

The care provided in the community was wisely delegated to the Almighty Invisible Hand of the Free Market, so a bunch of fly-by-night sub-par contractors sprung up to get the government cash and then provide very little care at all, and so large numbers of former patients ended up homeless due to their poorly controlled illness, and well gosh, hard to care for them in the community when you don't know where they live right?

It's an absolute debacle, and a great demonstration that neoliberalism is nothing more a belief set for business people who don't like paying tax.

But I fully agree that homelessness is a great medium for developing mental illness and drug dependencies.

Hi Hacker News community,

I'm excited to share that Expr v1.16.0 is now available! This release includes several new features and improvements that we've been working on based on community feedback.
Thank you for taking the time to contribute to the conversation.
Fair criticism on the about us page, but again, what we introduce (albeit combining existing concepts) is materially distinct from everything that currently exists.
We’ll try to address some of the points that you highlighted below:
-“interconnects content pages and chatrooms”: The way NBA “interconnects” the basketball teams (which otherwise would be separately practicing teams), the same way youphenom “interconnects” social media channels/pages, which currently are separate/confined “rooms” and nothing enables interaction between them. (And just to reiterate, that youphenom is not strictly sports oriented, virtually any activity/talent can participate in a competition, take America’s got talent for example). Which brings us to the next point:
-“allows teams from different sports to compete”- in the real world the Yankees could never play against the Lakers, or the Patriots vs mrBeast, but youphenom enables exactly that.
-“score actual points”- in the real world no fan is ever invited on the court to take the next free throw in an official NBA game, but youphenom is based exactly on that - only the fans vote/score all the points for their teams to determine the winner.
We hope this clarifies somewhat our concept and thanks again for pointing out areas that may use improvement or clarification
Cheers

It's rude to make misleading marketing statements as well, especially when you are addressing a technical market. That is pretty bad, and thinking so is not rude.
This is really dope and I've wanted something like it for at least 3 years now. Great work!
Not seeing a strong technical argument here. Ethical, sure. But headlines urging urgent ceasing use of a browser should have substantial reasoning behind it.
https://www.geekhideout.com/druglord2.shtml "modern" version.

I feel many would object to "simulator" being applied to something that doesn't represent a pre-existing thing with any faithfulness, however.
I read the article and I have to say, it's disturbingly compelling. Although I think that while we are unable to demonstrate intricate puppeting of real, conscious humans or something like that, there's some "truth" or "weight" in our thoughts and feelings that are genuine and outside of the typical sphere that free will governs (or, lacking that, fails to govern). Like, even if it could've been predicted with 73% accuracy at birth and 98% by age 25, the fact that someone deeply loves someone else doesn't seem like something to be written off as "this was in your genes and environment". It might still hold true in some sense if full-on mind control is invented, but then you wouldn't know if the feelings are real or fake, meaningful though they feel.
That's a great point. Definitely a human factors improvement that should be implemented.
Absolutely. I mean, the reason different vintages taste differently is because of the climate that year. Temperature, rainfall, sunlight are all important variables. And in the case of coffee you are often relying on wild microbial communities as well, rather than cultivated inoculants.

When wine brands link soil type to flavor it is complete BS. Plant roots don't absorb minerals, they absorb the water soluble molecular components like phosphate and calcium. (Moreover those nutrients primarily come from the humus layer rather than dirt). However those nutrients can be tasted by humans even at low concentrations, hence the conflation with soil quality and using "minerality" as an ambiguous flavor descriptor.
You would better blame the people who buy it. It's an insanely expensive way to drink water, when out of the tap it costs what, 3 cents a gallon?

The (summary) message seems to be: Don't use Opera because
"The company is chasing trends and extracting the most money possible from its declining users".

But there are no links that would truly show the extent of the alleged unethical behavior. There are no links to court-decisions.

What about unethical behaviors by other browser-providers? Isn't Google also "extracting the most money possible from its users"? And Microsoft?

This is the kind of question that calls for a text body expanding on the premise. Much worse in which ways? At what tasks? In which languages?

Since you didn't provide any concrete examples, I'll just note that my experience has been the opposite. I have found Copilot to be better and better as time goes on. In particular, it's gotten better and better at learning from the context of the project as a whole.

As just one example: I was working on a Python script which needed some icons as external files. I dragged the icons into a folder and then, when it came time to wire them up into the python script, I prompted Copilot on a whim and was surprised to find that it used the correct directory name. I had never seen something like that before—not only does copilot now have context for code in other files in the project, it has information about the directory structure! Improvements like this are what keep making it more useful, far more so than improvements to the model.
The upscaling doesn't seem particularly convincing, however, the HL2 RTX video on the same page definitely is.
The state does not have a monopoly on violence in the United States. Private citizens can and have used lethal force to stop and/or prevent certain crimes (and I’m not talking about kooky stand your ground laws either).

It all makes sense given that we are, after all, a former British colony. Great Britain’s whole thing with its colonial empire was to outsource its territorial defense to its colonial citizens.

Sure we do. That's what prisons are for. Because that's the only reliable offering for folks with chronic mental health needs.

Going past that: If patient rights weren't a factor, nothing would change. Long-term, inpatient mental healthcare is an impossibility for most folks who need it.

It's even much worse than that ;)

The fastest Z80 instructions are 4 clock cycles, at least 7 clock cycles if they also need to load or store an 8-bit value from/to memory, and at least 10 clock cycles for instructions that load or store a 16-bit value.

I did a little deep dive into Z80 timings a little while ago using the Z80 netlist simulation from visual6502.org:

https://floooh.github.io/2021/12/06/z80-instruction-timing.h...

But for BASIC programs those timings don't matter much, since BASIC on 8-bit home computers was easily 100x times slower than assembly code doing the same thing (the difference is probably less though when floating point math is involved, since this also needs to be 'software-emulated' in assembly).
Very interesting, and indeed promising, but IMO over-optimistic in the way the approach is presented.
So they have incentive to keep the chargers and site in good shape because it impacts their charging business as well as the food sales.

A lot of chargers in the US are just dropped in the back of a parking lot somewhere. Once the provider has gotten the installation check then they don't have much ongoing incentive to keep it working well. Or even if they want to, keeping the hardware and software working well is tougher when they aren't vertically integrated.
Variational autoencoder for design of synthetic viral vector serotypes
For the longest time Democrats harped on this when Republicans were in power and completely forgot about it once they got power, just to yell about it some more once they were out of power again. But they actually went through and did it this time, so kudos for fulfilling a promise and taking away one of their former favorite campaign planks instead of trying to squeeze it forever. Maybe it's sad that this isn't the default expected behavior, but in this environment, it's worth pointing out when someone actually does what they claim to be in favor of doing.
