This is the answer. You can solve this problem with tools; you don't have to change your philosophy.

When your company has 5 projects, do you count Project Z's backlog against Project X's backlog? No you don't, even though they are both in the same database. The reason you're OK with this is because your teams' views have been adjusted so that they only see their own project. So they each see what they consider to be their own backlog. Use the same approach for low-priority requests: put them in the same database, but don't elevate them to the team's backlog view.

If someone has an idea or a request you should not suppress it entirely. That will only encourage people to add yet another system of logging to your organization. Just because a request is not urgent or can't be put on the roadmap yet does not mean it's not important.

And why throw away what can be logged for later archeology? "Oh hey the answer to this new problem is right here in this old request we never got around to."

This -15% fall was sort of expected as the ETFs were already priced in, which is why Bitcion went up before their launch. Now Bitcoin is back to $39k, which is early Dec 2023 levels, ie. back when the market thought ETF being approved were unlikely. In other words, this price move is a non-news.

Also, it's always good too look at the big picture: https://bitcoin.zorinaq.com/price/ And, yes, a log-chart is the only proper way to look at an asset that gains/loses orders of magnitudes over the years.

In any case, password or not is not the problem. EU law actually has protections for white hat hackers, even when they actually hack. I do have a friend who does this regularly, he's been in the press, he's been sued, he knows the drill. There are a number of steps to follow, and a 3-day wait period is patently absurd. A proper process looks absolutely nothing like this. Amongst other things, my friend is actually contacting the authorities before even considering public disclosure.

The point of a white hat hacker is to help, not to make things worse.

This is a great update from the Mozilla team! Please continue the hard work.

The only thing missing is a continued commitment to privacy and liberty.

How does, “people who have no business SCUBA diving a protected reef due to lack of fitness” strike you?

As with eBikes, just about anyone could strap on a SCUBA and visit places they otherwise couldn’t (IMO shouldn’t).

The fact is, some people are unfit. Whether, physically, or simply lack the ability to be a good steward of public resources. This applies to SCUBA, eBikes, Driving and a bunch of other things. I don’t think that’s objectionable.

You dropped "where it is irreplaceable". The traditional hedge in such places has been to use a more stable currency, like dollars or euros, as a hedge if the national currency is subject to hyperinflation.
Sweet. For some reason, this has been an ongoing problem with Go’s tooling. I’m sure that there’s some underlying reason why the dead code finding tools have kept getting deprecated or had various problems.

Clichéd, I know, but this is good for Bitcoin.

For the first time, people have the ability to express short interest in Bitcoin. Sure, there are sketchy credit markets inside of the various cryptocurrency exchanges, but soooo sketchy. The biggest was FTX, for example.

But now organizations and individuals can actually express short interest in Bitcoin. Ideally the ETFs would be redeemable in kind, rather than the cash-settled ones that are all that the SEC will allow, so there may be disconnects to the spot price, but this is very exciting for long-time Bitcoin believers like myself (as opposed to hodlers) because price stability is the goal.
Bitcoin obviously has uses (arguably better served by other cryptocurrencies), and gold is far from irreplaceable in the vast majority of its uses.
Another one of my favorite startup books after the "mom test", is Founding Sales. These books really hammer home hard truths that smart technical founders haven't had to learn prior.

For me, Founding Sales calibrated me on just how much volume and effort it takes to get a prototype product into customer's hands.
Actually no. Google is merely the developer of AOSP (Android Open Source Project). The actual implementation and pushing of updates is up to your OEM or phone maker. Some OEMs are graceful in pushing updates, others aren't. But none to my knowledge pushes forced updates that user can't disable? Besides, you can always Flash/Root/etc. in the Android world with the power user shoes when something goes wrong, you can't do that in the Apple world.
You're not supposed to have to do anything at all. Crostini on an ARM Chromebook is literally just aarch64 Debian, pointed at the upstream apt repos for basically all of its binaries.
Yep. Use Rake tasks for things that benefit or require "the rest" of the code (looking at you, Rails tasks)...

They want candidates who care about their product, not people who merely rank companies by compensation, subject a constraint on time spent preparing. If you don't particularly care what you are working on, you would be better off at a big company.

Assuming you're not being intentionally obtuse: the FDA makes some decisions purely out of politics (e.g. many schedule 1 drugs) and they make other decisions based on higher tolerance of risk in certain situations. Perhaps the FAA should slap a black box warning on the 737 to regain credibility.
There isn’t the same kind of ontological boundary in a rock, as there is an organism.

My hunch is: there’s a low-grade subjectivity/qualia to all of the universe, which would include the particles of the rock, but the rock would not experience an independent “rock-ness”.

The consciousness of organisms are perhaps more like a dissociative state, analogous to a gravity well of subjectivity, such that the qualia are concentrated inside a boundary (the entity that is intelligently chasing energy differentials), and excluding most information outside this boundary.

The primary reason for this hunch is that “ouch” is an experience, rather than merely a mathematical/algorithmic update to a neural net (compare with artificial NN’s, chemical feedback loops, etc). An “ouch” is not needed to strengthen the signal; just tilt the training feedback stronger as necessary (-10,000 points to “eat the berry that made us sick”). And it seems prohibitively expensive expensive to bootstrap “strange loop” subjectivity merely to strengthen those numbers via an “ouch”.

But instead, if some form of subjectivity were to pre-exist, Darwinian pressures would co-opt it as an efficient feedback loop mechanism, and then iterate until arriving at the “consciousness” of animals and humans (including an incentive to pay more attention to qualia in the organism boundary, and only minimally outside it)

This is something I'm trying really hard to do with a client. They have a bunch of 1500+ line "config" files for products, which are then used to make technical drawings and production files. The configs attempt to use naming scheme to group related variables together.

I want to migrate to an actual nested data-structure using (maybe) JSON - and these engineers absolutely will not write code, so config-as-code is a no-go, in addition to the disadvantage you mentioned.

My next thought was that there should be a better way to show the configuration, and allow that configuration to be modified. I was thinking maybe some sort of visual UI which where the user can navigate a representation of the final product, select a part and modify a parameter that way.

Is that along the lines of your suggestion? If not will you please expand a little? Configuration is the absolute core of this application.
First, you held bitcoin in a wallet. You couldn't buy anything with it but at least having it was cool.

Second, you could give your bitcoin to a third party with a website that said you really had that much bitcoin. You forwent the promises of security, and you still couldn't buy anything with it, but at least you could now speculate in it.

Now, you can hold your claim to bitcoin buy buying a fund that owns the bitcoin.

The very existence of the ETFs and their enormous value show how far we are from the original idealisim into wherever we're at now. And... you still can't buy anything with bitcoin.
The first two are seemingly of questionable utility, but the 3rd feature (Help me write) is actually quite interesting.

As of late, most of my public written responses (bar HN) have had some sort of collaboration with ChatGPT, and I've often wondered about a native browser integration. For those of us who struggle with communication, this is an exciting prospect!

I think the IPv6 crowd is already decently in action, hence vast swaths of the internet and mobile network already migrated (some on the mobile even without dual stack). What's needed for more IPv6 adoption is continued annoyance felt by the IPv4 crowd to want to bother migrating to any other long term solution. That's required a lot more time than most probably expected but it has been happening, IPv4 has become more and more difficult to use. Throwing in things like "Look IPv4 crowd, there are ways to extend IPv4 for some more years again without the pain of going to multi-layered NAT" is about the exact opposite of the kind of call to action needed.

Either way though, the inherent value in the technology is what has to drive the adoption and the value is already there it's just a matter of IPv4's value still holding well enough for now. As such I don't inherently mind 0/8 being available on Linux these days and wouldn't inherently mind 240/4 either but a completely separate set of "yes, you can configure that address but the problem is with getting between there and here not accepting it" is a bit disappointing for just another short term response to the problem.

You're misquoting GP: No use where it is irreplaceable.

I have read a suggestion that one should pick real (but randomly generated) words because, where it is possible to call the company that maintains your account, an attacker might claim that the recovery answer is a series of random characters, and there is a chance that the employee will accept this and allow the attacker access to the account.
That's a useful perspective: we can help ourselves imagine what the future experience of a self-driving car trip might be like by analogy to the familiar experience of a train trip.

In the same way, we need not fear a future in which machines write code for us, as the previous commenter did, because we can expect that transition to rhyme with previous transitions involving tools which automated code generation in other ways. We can expect that the use of LLM-based tools will feel just as natural, once they have settled in, as the use of compilers and interpreters does to us today.

As others have said, stop using software that has that capability, or at minimum treat all SaaS (broadly defined) as a hostile actor and conduct yourself accordingly. It's miserable, but that's the ecosystem we've created. As long as we continue to incentivize companies by giving them money, they're going to keep treating us this way. It's actually to tech companies' benefit to actively alienate customers that don't want to fit the mold of how they want them to behave so they can maximize unit profitability.

Also, a shout out to Duolingo who did exactly what is described here. I paid for the app and woke up one day to find I was forced to upgrade and when I did the app became something completely different where the previous "game" I was playing was gone. They of course ignored my complaints about it, and their app sucks anyway for learning so in a way I'm glad they broke the cycle. It's still a terrible way to treat customers.

Yeah but that's not necessarily a good thing. Packaged browsers from a package repo don't have the best track record. I mean they are fine but there's a reason why some want their packages to come from the people who actually made the software especially in this case.

yup, yet again, big tech beats crypto https://greyenlightenment.com/2023/12/19/five-years-later-th...

since the start of 2024, leveraged tech ETFs have gained, and BTC has fallen a lot

There is no reason to hold BTC when , controlling for volatility , TECL & TQQQ have more upside, less risk. Speculators hoping to get rich with crypto would be better off with the 3x tech funds. Bitcoin has a recurring habit of dumping 10% in a week for no good reason, while the Nasdaq chugs along to new highs or flat. No good.
I thought this was a good strategy too until some one said that a customer service rep once asked him one of the questions over the phone and, lacking his backed up security questions at hand, he just said "it is a bunch of random characters" and was let through...

Shorting a stock often helps get it to the "correct" market price faster. If the market truly thinks that BTC is really propped up by Tether, then well, downward price pressure should help the market price the true value of BTC.

I do believe the true price is Zero, like most crypto currency has gone to over time.
Completely opposite experience for me. I think Nixlang is exceptionally well designed and makes sense for the usecases it wants to cover, and it is exactly what I would expect from a DSL tackling the problems it tackles.
In this case, the rumor says this core design no longer has hyperthreading, so a P core can't run two threads. If that's true, it seems more likely that Intel is heading towards ending multithreaded cores than going towards 4 threads per core. IMHO, more threads per core helps with interactivity at very low core counts (like 1 core), and can help with throughput by scheduling other work during memory loads, but at higher core counts, memory bandwidth is oversubscribed and you end up with both threads waiting for memory. Die space wise, it may make more sense to put in full e-cores or c cores rather than hyperthreads. And security wise, hyperthreads are a nightmare.

In the case where a core can run multiple threads, you have to benchmark to see if it makes more sense to run one thread per core (and possibly disable hyperthreading) or one OS thread per cpu thread. Sometimes there's a big difference, usually it's fairly small; and it can go either way. It's not unreasonable to run one thread per cpu-thread as a default, for cpu-busy code.

It's definitely not the case that if you have a core capable of running two threads that you lose half your throughput by only running a single thread. Depending on core design, you may or may not have a penalty by running single threaded and configured for two threads, if the core does a static partition of resources such as rename registers. But even in that case, losing half the rename registers is unlikely to reduce throughput by half.

I think you misunderstand their suggestion. If you only gave service providers access to encrypted data (i.e. End-to-end encryption), then neither the service provider nor the leaker would be able to decrypt.

Whether or not that is a generally viable or desirable suggestion is a different question, but it is possible as demonstrated by Signal, Apple, etc.

One thing I think C++ (or at least, most C++ users) gets right is suggesting that you should use 'auto' if you don't really care that much about bit width, and the specified sizes otherwise.

Thankfully C23 takes this approach, although it'll probably take forever until it's as adopted as widespread as C99 is now, and that's still not widespread enough.
