Are you thinking about something specific? What's the scenario where the public harm to a usage control bypass becomes more valuable to an attacker than the bug bounty?

(Edit: <sigh> than the bug bounty that the linked author desires. Really?)

Remember that both of these technologies don't allow the device to do anything it isn't able to do in its default configuration. They're essentially a form of DRM: disallowing otherwise useful activities because of the desires of the owner (and not the user). Would you demand, say, Apple pay a bug bounty for a DRM bypass that let people rip Netflix videos? Probably not, right?
Most of the regulatory agencies in the US exist to serve as anticompetitive moats around the largest industrial companies in the US. You see it in the FDA, the FAA, the EPA, SEC/FINRA, etc. Once you get big enough, it seems that the federal government places you under the umbrella of "national security" and decides to make sure you get to continue to exist (so long as you cooperate and play ball). Being part of the large supply chains for the military always helps, too.

Once you see it, you can't unsee it. The US is incredibly corrupt.
Probably worth breaking out a separate feature "html-manifest" on caniuse.

Also, I want to echo that MDN is a fantastic resource.
I have to say, I really like that it claims to work in an async fashion with rsync/dropbox not interfering with the repo. But my brain is also wired hard on top of git.
The transition mechanisms that need to worry about now are NAT64, MAP-T, and XLAT. Only the first do you have to worry about setting up unless you are ISP. The rest are obsolete.

NAT64 is used for IPv6-only networks to talk to IPv4. It puts the IPv4 address in the IPv6 address. The downside is that doesn't work with old IPv4-only software.

XLAT is used on mobile phones, and does the translation on the device. It only works for devices where translator can be installed.

MAP-T can be used for IPv6 ISP to provide IPv4 access. It is basically CGNAT but using IPv6 as stateless transport.
us remote only?
Typical low quality journalism. It’s not warning lights, it’s a graphic asset (akin to a CSS sprite if you know web development) and the government wants a few pixels tweaked in an over the air software update to make some icons into i18n-unfriendly English words instead of internationally recognized iconography.

To be fair the subset of icons in question also contained words at a smaller size but this change will lose the iconic look for those elements and substitute an ever so slightly larger font word like BRAKE to be shown in the same placement icon-sized on the screen. The article saying “warning lights” is just par for legacy media these days.
Thanks; that actually makes sense.
Well, depends on who you ask... there are well-structured ways of thinking on intervention or non-intervention on both sides.
Why do you think that?

The things I like most in a friend often come with a price.

From what I can tell, many successful people are asses and their is a linkage between those two issues.

Media tends to warp how much we can understand about a public person, so it is hard to judge.

Even the successful asses I have personally met, I usually can't imagine removing the ass without removing what made them successful. It's not just a crazy artist stereotype.
It incentivizes building excess capacity. All you need is dynamic pricing so miners stop when there is grid demand. Texas is using this approach.
The Commanding Heights, eh?

I think this has been tried already, unfortunately.

I’m still stuck on the first bit; you seem to sincerely believe that bitcoin is good for the environment, whilst also acknowledging it’s mainly powered by coal.

One can justify all sorts or environmental destruction with this your argument. Pouring oil on the beach is pushing local regulators to act, spurring the creation of less harmful lubricants.

The numbers show bitcoin mining is doing harm.
I have a company with 80% of my revenues and profits coming from 20% of my company, but that other 80% still requires 80% of my time and energy.

You've just described pretty much every big corporation.

80% of the revenues comes from the sales department (or equivalent), but 80% of your time and energy spent with the rest of the company, the rest of the company makes it possible for that 20% to just do whatever it is that makes the company revenue.

I'm not trying to discredit GDP; I don't think it is a useless metric. Lawmakers around the world—some that are paid handsomely—care about it and obviously quite a bit can be inferred from it, but in this case we would be better served utilising a multi-dimensional lens, so to say, in these tangential topics. I'm just against hearing about it as the most important economic metric of a country. It's very often used as a single data point to come to all kinds of conclusions. There are some top-comments in this thread where people are almost forecasting Japan's doom, which is of course a ridiculous view. That's the general direction my comment was aimed at.

At the risk of being out of my depth: You only need a few seconds to look at the per-capita list before finding yourself asking "wait, why is THAT country so high up?". Again, useful info can be inferred, but it doesn't put the country above others in other important lists, which is what people usually imply and use it for, on topics not strictly related to economy statistics.
> That is not what the word recall means. That is what you want it to mean.

No, it is the plain dictionary meaning of "recall"[1] (see sense #7, which states the "return of (a faulty product)".

Words in headlines should be the plain dictionary meaning, not a legal term of art for specialists.

IPv6 has marginally lower latency (in most cases) and lets peer-to-peer applications work flawlessly. If your ISP only has v4 CG-NAT then it gets you a lot better connectivity.
Spoken like the average armchair accountant.
I don't want to get anyone too hyped on it just yet because there's still a lot of testing to be done, but hopefully will start giving some more concrete updates on "fck-nat 2.0" soon-ish!
I meant it's a superficial rather than fundamental design flaw, easily rectified.
I wonder what in this article makes you believe Russia is trustworthy.
That's an interesting thought, whereas previously technology wrapped computer protocols (I send hello in chat and the computer will wrap and unwrap it in TCP for me), in your example we have the AI wrapping the message in social protocol.
August 18th 1920 women were granted the right to vote in the United States. It is more than 100 years later and women are not required to register for the selective service. The sales pitch of feminism to men rings hollow when equal rights are granted but not equal responsibilities.
You really can't hide information from the operating system while expecting to also use that information in the same OS you're trying to hide it from.

The problem isn't that the data is available. It simply has to be available if you are to use it. The problem is that your OS is now a virus all on its own. The OS is not a threat vector you can easily mitigate without just using a different OS.
>> Unproductive wealth is the real devil, the hoarding of inelastic goods like land, gold, and oil

How would hoarding of gold, in and of itself, be bad? Say someone goes out and works and makes money, and they take the money and buy gold coins and keep them in a safe, or fill up a swimming pool so they can dive into their hoard of gold like Scrooge McDuck. They are contributing to society, and to the extent they hoard gold, asking nothing back for what they have contributed.

It's like what Charlie Munger did. Made a massive fortune, spent his whole life doing it, had an amount of money that he could have used for extravagant spending, could have bought whole islands in Hawaii, could have bought politicians. But he didn't. He earned the money, earned dividends on the money, piled up all the money in a hoard. Then he died.
Eh, I guess the question is:

Is this the type of company you want around your people?

Where top executives make miscalculations, and receive great bonuses even if they mess up, to then offload their bad decisions on a workforce that will be at the hands of the state once unemployed, with all the societal issues that generate from that.

Why should the workers, and the state, get the sht handed to them, while the top executives and the shareholders get all the good stuff?

Maybe they should pursue a different type of working agreement for risky projects and look for contractors, not employees. Or maybe lay off the executive team and bring in ones who make better decisions?

I'd rather live in a world where Amazon employees have time to pee on the job and Jeff Bezos has $10M less. Iterate until Jeff Bezos only makes ~10^2 what the median Amazon employee makes instead of ~10^6.
You are overlooking something ;)

The 1s on the little concave bit mean you know where the nearest 2's second flag should go, even though you don't know yet where the 1 is. Then that gives you some to clear.
"and non toxic discussions"

Have you seen one discussion about Gaza free of that? I haven't. (My main account is rate limited, because of a recent Gaza debate btw. Because I like heated discussions from time to time. But I can respect that it is not wanted here)

"So add a flame war tag, or a politics tag, and let people filter it. Filter it with AI. Grow a thicker skin, or expand your mind - there's a lot of options."

So one of those options are, you start your own forum, where you can have all that, instead of demanding that other people and places change to your liking. Just a suggestion.
I agree that no human organization will always make the best decisions. That's why I'm advocating for a larger number of human organizations making decisions independently (as much as is possible in the world today). I was also being somewhat soft in my language, so let me amend it to, sometimes the government makes bad choices and fails to invest in crucial areas.

Are you advocating for more organizations created as cooperatives and the like? I think that would be great too. However a lot of ambitious projects like curing diseases, inventing new materials, building spacecraft, and more require a lot of money.

It's much easier to start on these things if you can skip fundraising from thousands of individuals.
I'm glad it is like that, I'm concerned for anything at 60+, in the end 5 years of income is quite a bit, hence why I am trying to plan ahead for retirement

If it is making money you could sell it off. You could also not give it 80% of your time, presumably it would be dysfunctional and not profitable at that point and you could justify laying them off. Or perhaps the division would operate less optimally but still create profit.
So upgrade to IPv6.

I was advised to not put the CPAP machine itself on your nightstand by your head. The hose should be long enough that you can put the machine at the foot of your bed (by your feet) so you don't hear it as much.

I think the big problem with Amazon is that they stopped caring about the quality and provenance of the products on their platform. Other retailers do exist who have more of a stake in the quality of the goods they sell.
Happy to hear it! I've been looking to add some testimonials to the site. Is it okay if I reach out to you via email?
> a lot of the data on the site actually comes from MDN

Eh... not really.

The feature support matrix (as linked on CanIUse) comes from MDN's browser-compat-data repo. Here's the HTML element's source data: https://github.com/mdn/browser-compat-data/blob/main/html/el...

This doesn't contain the testing and usage info that CanIUse cites for support, though, just which browser versions included which features.

CanIUse also points to their own repo, which contains a lot of data: https://github.com/fyrd/caniuse

But I can't find an easy entry point to find where they're getting the numbers for a specific element. The data on there seems to be primarily for features.

So the more precise question is, where is CanIUse getting HTML element testing and usage numbers from? Because that seems to be the issue.
Come on. You make it sound as if Amazon started a campaign to directly shut these in-person businesses down. The reality however is more mundane and exactly what parent comment mentioned: people voted with their feet and dollars, the in-person businesses that did shut down could not adapt and we are all the better for it.
This is fun. I was playing classic minesweeper the other day and remarked on how I was basically playing on autopilot, I've internalized all the logic and playing is just muscle memory now.

But playing this version, my intuition is all wrong! I lost my first 2 games, and now I'm going to have to force myself to slow down and think through things more carefully, rather than trying to rely on my now-incorrect intuitions.
Can we have a minesweeper on a Penrose P5 tiling while we're at it?
Thanks a lot!
And yes, the ratio of mines vs clear tiles may not be optimal, and is currently completely random, so guessing may be required at times. But there's an undo button so you won't have to restart a new level if you hit a mine.

But I'd love to remove guessing ultimately. I just haven't found a reliable way to make it work yet, and would need to dedicate a fair amount of hours to it, which I've preferred allocating to the other games on my roadmap. Nevertheless, it still may happen.

Could you maybe try the custom settings? You can change the ratio of mines. I'd be curious to know what quantity of mines you find works best.

It's knowledge. What current regulations require city hazmat vehicles? That was the only remotely plausible impact-to-consumer. Can you name any EPA regulations that affect consumers in any way remotely similar to your original post?

Seems taking your fluorescents and lead based batteries to specialized recycle is about it on the consumer side. Personally I'm happy to do that to prevent poisoning my kids and my neighbor. Also happy for industry to identify safer alternative products.

Please free yourself from the libertarian fever dream.
This article is more proof that, once it's being mass produced, there will be USSF-manned Starships launching from the USSF Canaveral and Vandenberg bases.

This is something that SF leadership isn't talking about, because a) the force is still dealing with all the anti Trump-driven jokes about Buzz Lightyear and space rangers and such from when the service stood up, and b) it's sort of like a military branch in 1900—when engineers around the world were working on heavier-than-air fight and it was expected sooner or later, but the Wright Brothers hadn't succeeded yet—stating that it will be the service that handles flying machines. Further, c) it doesn't want or need people joining right now to fly in space.

There currently is no military astronaut corps (as opposed to military personnel temporarily assigned to NASA), but there has been such twice in the past. Had Space Force existed then it would have been the service running the 1960s' Manned Orbiting Laboratory program, and the 1980s' Manned Spaceflight Engineer program.

Space Force already has had two NASA astronauts, and a reusable unmanned spacecraft in the X-37B. If the X-37 were manned Space Force would staff it, just as the service currently runs every other aspect of its missions from launch to in-orbit-operation to return.

To put another way, the reason USSF doesn't currently send people into space is not because there is some law or latter-day Key West Agreement stating that Space Force can't have its own manned spacecraft; rather, its only reusable spacecraft, X-37, isn't manned. Once it has its own manned spacecraft, USSF will be sending people into space. It's a lack of opportunity, not ability or desire.

Starships with SF ground and flight crews will handle scheduled launches of space assets, and perhaps one will be kept on constant alert for an urgent launch. We might even see the equivalent of SSBNs, nuke-carrying Starships doing rotations in cislunar space for second/third strikes.^1 People who miss the days when ICBMs were part of AFSPC may get their wish, sort of.

^1 Yes, I know about the Outer Space Treaty. I expect the US to depart from the treaty.
Experts clash over report suggesting fluoride can affect brain development
Seriously, Word (and other word processing software) and TeX come from two separate lines of evolution. Knuth is a computer science guru, and invented TeX to effectively and precisely output technical and scientific documents. Word and other word processors (before and after) came from the creative and business worlds. The two didn't have any influence on each other for many years -- you can write a novel in LaTeX, and you can write a scientific paper in Word, but those aren't what the program was written for, and it shows in the awful editing and rendering of equations in Word. (I can't make a similar assertion for LaTeX...being based on plain, rather than formatted, text, it's easier to separate content in a LaTeX document from the end format, while in Word the content and formatting are inextricably bound together.)

For me, I'm not a particularly assertive person, so when I have to be or decide to be, it often becomes aggressive for some reason, it's like somehow I don't know how to be assertive without being aggressive...I'm not sure why... I'd like to learn how to learn this, tbh.

Surprised to see no mention of WebGPU here. Sucks to see Apple falling behind on what could drive a lot of potential use cases around WebLLM, on-device cryptography etc.

It’s not warning lights. If you’re getting that wording from NHTSA, they have their heads up their asses.
I think you can make a case they’re related; they’re all technologies that have been hyped in much the same way by much the same people. That’s not to say they’ll all end up in the same place, however — it seems already clear to me that ‘Gen AI’ has far more readily-applicable utility than, say, cryptocurrencies. I think you’re just objecting on the basis that AI is obviously already immensely useful while other hyped technologies (in their current state) aren’t.

> I wonder if I do it too? If I did, I expect I wouldn't notice…

A very good point! You might not. But grouping things together that don’t immediately seem related can be one of the most fruitful acts of all…

Actually, that’s not a bad answer. For that to work, US will need to kick all the lobbyists out of congress tax/budget meetings.

Because as soon as they get a whiff of what’s coming, the anti-taxation machinery goes in full-swing.

God bless Warren Buffett for having Berkshire pay taxes on things they didn’t have to. He’s set a great precedent, but others don’t want to follow him. On the other hand, we have the likes of Sam Bankman-Fried touting “effective altruism” then doing the opposite.

We try to, and often users help by, posting links to the previous discussions in the thread. But there isn't enough time to do that in all of them.

In this case, you can see from https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que... that there had been a lot of submissions, and from https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=true&que... the ones that got comments.

Of those, https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39165981 had been just a few days earlier. And it turns out that there actually was a link to it in the later thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39204186, but this comment was flagkilled, probably because of the personal swipe in it. (You can still see it but only if you turn on 'showdead' in your profile.)

I could go on! because there's endless detail one can go into about these calls. But you "didn't necessarily want to dissect every little story" :)
What a load of crap. Capitalism rewards existing capital. These people have opportunities 99.999999% will never have and still they got lucky. It's not about competence. It never is.

Our current society rewards people that can lie, cheat and backstab while punishing those who care about anything other than profits. Just take a look at SBF and all the startup snake oil culture and it's clear they're not competent at anything that helps society.
There’s decent evidence (backing up clear intuition) that wellbeing scales with the log of income. There’s also decent evidence for losses being about twice as painful as gains are pleasurable. Moving money from richer to poorer people should therefore increase average wellbeing as long as the richer people are sufficiently richer, or as long you can make the loss feel like a foregone gain instead.

I also like the sound of the German system.
