Agree, I thought I was paying for search so they could focus on building search. Anything that feels like a money-raising or God-forbid acquisition play is concerning.
Indeed, the victim, in this case, did mention on the linked 4chan thread that they realised their mistake. While we only see a small part of their world through text communication on forums, I suspect they're kicking themselves in the real world.

Or perhaps not, and they have a ton of other wallets full to the brim with crypto-nonsense.

I thought it dominated, or was at least popular within, the niche it was developed for, telecom hardware. It is the "Ericsson Language" after all

Is that not the case?
Regardless of how you feel it gets represented by various communities, it is a powerful form of programming.

I'm not a functional expert, I have only dabbled. I once rewrote a fairly complex imperative Python text processing program in a functional style. It became much clearer. Most of the code was actually reusable higher order functions, and the program logic became very short and essentially declarative.
I hope not. Imagine how devastating conflict already is to the environment. Now make every bird shoot on sight, just in case.

I guess ravens really are the dark one's eyes and ears!
For me, no language has been more fascinating as unlike most languages Erlang is very focused on distributed systems as a first class citizen and sells that, rather than the more common sales pitch of being exactly like other languages but with subjectively better syntax/semantics.
What I mean was your wording implied that exchangerate-api.com was somehow implicated, but in my opinion that is too much of a leap to make.

The only thing implicating that site is a redirect that you got from a site that you know you don't trust.
Just curious, since I'm not really active in this space, but wouldn't the threat model of most concern be that an external actor breaks (maybe an outdated version of) the app or protocol? This would leak data without you or the recipient being any the wiser. It seems like that's the threat the app-expiry policy is intended to address.
It seems excessive to allow USD 14k spend on a newly created account, or and account with no prior big spend. If I was Google, I would not allow it without explicitly raising limits or increasing quotas. Otherwise there is a big chance there customer can not pay and they just lost that resource – unless you don't really have an expense for that resource and you use predatory pricing.

I don't see how someone who makes funny TikTok videos is less of an artist then someone working on a comedy show for TV.
There's a big difference between "collecting and storing" and "collecting and storing an encrypted version of".

If there was such a hoo-hah and it was trivial to patch out, I expect we'd have a thriving patched fork up and running by now.
Of course, Wikipedia is the easiest website to scrape. The HTML is so clean an organized. I'd like to find some code to scrape Airbnb.

For someone who values professionalism you're strangely entitled. Do you think people would enjoy working with someone who threatens consequences as soon you're called out for being an ass?

Are you being professional when you try to bait me into doxxing myself for what, getting revenge over a comment on the web? "I dare you! I triple dare you! Coward! Let's continue outside HN".

Then you belittle me calling me a "cute little freelancer" (I'm not) and so on. Maybe you wouldn't want to work with me, but don't flatter yourself, I doubt I'd ever need your entitled elitist attitude close to me. I didn't even reply to your first comment that got down-voted because it didn't warrant an answer. But when you started bitching to people calling you out I got interested, and here we are.

Spare me your psychoanalysis Freud. Instead of doubling down just leave, or delete your comments if you care so much what people think. You're not winning any points, there are no prizes or diplomas.
Yeah, that's not at all what the actual journal article claimed. It starts super simple:

We know Titan has two things that seem so promising for life as we know it! Organic compounds on the outside, liquid water on the inside.

And then it asks:

Might those two promising things meet? Other work hasn't found the tectonics that would do it; could cratering do it?

And that very particular answer is pretty definitively no.
Did this roll put? I have the latest version but no Phone number under privacy settings.
No, you're wrong. The issue you're describing can't be exploited on Ledger devices at least. (Source: I’m a contributor to their bitcoin transaction parsing code)
Their hardware wallet checks if the provided change output's address is actually owned by the device owner:

- if it does, then the change output is simply hidden from the user validation flow

- if it doesn’t it will appear as a second bitcoin transfer to approve, which require a second physical approval on the device. this is highly unusual and should trigger the user's suspicion.

I can’t say for other vendors but this is pretty standard security practice I’m sure, hardware wallets are fighting against attacks that are way more elaborate than this one.

What was the query you ran?
Perhaps a historical impact could have been large enough to seed the ocean.
In astronomy and cosmology, 1 and 5 are the same number. Only the orders of magnitude matter when talking about large things. At atomic scales and in photon length the precise numbers do matter.
This has been my (admittedly small and small size) experience - it's hard to make cloud competitive unless you have something like vastly changing requirements, huge burst needs, etc.
I frequently see this kind of surprising billing anecdotes across many cloud providers. Why don't they provide a way to set a hard budget limit applied for the entire account. I tried to see what can be done for GCP and this seems pretty daunting.

Early Adopters of Microsoft's AI Bot Wonder If It's Worth the Money
Back in the day, we had long internal conversations about doing verification 'properly' with government-issued IDs, third-party verification agencies and the like. But that never amounted to anything, sadly.

They might consider it further if the store got to a decent scale (like the contemporaries like iOS, Play and Microsoft). But with "only" 6K applications published, and the money canon being pointed in other directions, I can't see it happening any time soon.

No, I am speaking directly to your castigation of "calls to globalize the Intifada". So, don't do that Tom. Its right there in my thread, in both of my comments. I could go back and find other examples from other threads in the last couple of months, but I'm pretty clearly talking about this thread, right here.

Edit:
Can't reply to you for some reason, and no, you don't know me, though we have met, and corresponded via email a few times, but attempting to make my reply about "being angry" is really gross dude. I responded substantively to both of your comments and your reply appears to be to simply ignore that; so be it!
Interesting, thanks!

> If you and I still worked at Google I'd just give you an automon dashboard link showing latency an order of magnitude better than that to prove myself…

I believe you, and I think in principle we should all be getting the 50 µs latency you're describing within a datacenter with no special effort.

...but it doesn't match what I observed, and I'm not sure why. Maybe difference of a couple years. Maybe I was checking somewhere with older equipment, or some important config difference in our tests. And obviously my memory's a bit fuzzy by now but I know I didn't like the result I got.
I love Kagi and I'm a happy customer. I hope their endeavors in AI features don't distract too much from the core offering of a web search engine. That's the only thing I want from them.
They were excluded until very recently. I think details are not relevant, but look how long they do studies, dodging ratios, where they serve, extremism, tax payments... It really does not belong here.

My point is that Israel is really not good example of a country with "happy conscription".

Israel is actually good pace to visit now. Cheaper than usually, far less tourist, stay on coast (Haifa
and Tel Aviv) avoid religious sites. I am going there in October for two weeks.
I don't think that's a safe assumption at all. And even if it were, there's eleventy billion different ways to have the data leave the device and wind up somewhere else.

Should Signal support/implement all of these? Some of them? Which ones?
There was a small bug in our DMARC record parser (it didn't like the semicolon at the end of the record). Sorry for that. Your DMARC record is definitely correct. The issue should be fixed now.

Also, thanks for the idea about circumventing DNS caching. I'll look into adding that feature.
Yes, I understood your point.
What I learned from the transition to real-time feedback
I don’t doubt it, but I also can’t relate at all. There are three software developers, one software consultant and one IT consultant in my close family (so definitely not tech-averse) and we easily spend hours together without aimlessly looking at our phones.
A more successful model is to launder a DoD project into a private company (Lifelog to Facebook, for example) and then a leviathan of media flaks can promote the product as the Next Big Thing.
Given how small the dataset is there is no query that justifies a $14k charge.

AWS charges $27/hour for a server with 3TB of memory. Enough to run the queries in memory.
Did the cost estimate calculator provide an inaccurate estimate?

https://cloud.google.com/bigquery/docs/best-practices-costs

Estimate query costs

BigQuery provides various methods to estimate cost:

Use the query dry run option to estimate costs before running a query using the on-demand pricing model.
Calculate the number of bytes processed by various types of query.
Get the monthly cost based on projected usage by using the Google Cloud Pricing Calculator.

You’re right about the time spent. The novelty of finding people you know on a site like that was still pretty exciting. People would spend a lot of time poking around new people.

Facebook didn’t invent it but they were the winners of that generation.

Modern social networks don’t operate that way. It is no longer exciting to find out that person you went to 3rd grade with is online. Of course they are online, everyone is

I'm sure it will become possible soon. The code is already there on iOS, as the app also work on iPad, but hidden behind the internal feature flag [0]. Same with Android [1]. If your second device in an Android, you can already use it now with [Molly](https://github.com/mollyim/mollyim-android).

Also, WhatsApp recently added this feature, so the expectations from potential new users who switched is now there.

Because they aren't sufficiently incentivized to make giving them your money harder.
What incentive to cloud providers have to give you that ability? I think they greatly appreciate the ability to accidentally spend a lot of money
It's not spying on users.

And no, it's really the only way to do it effectively. When you make it opt in or internal only, you get far too much selection bias to make the product good. That's just how it works with this tech right now.
Cloud, for better or worse, seems to be sold in vCPUs (read: cores), RAM (gigglebites), and disk.

I wish there was a much better way to compare vCPUs than just "count" because one core of some five year old server is not the same as a core of a modern performance beast.
Or, GCP could implement cost/resource/use limits, which would allow them to give away whatever they wanted for free without any concern about people over using it, while also allowing people to avoid shooting their own feet off.
Neither Signal nor Telegram allow to pay a small amount in cryptocurrency to prove you are not a spammer. This shows that they are really interested in knowing who is their user.

Google AppEngine used to have that but — presumably in the interest of additional profit — they removed it. Now I have to make do with an alert that warns me long after I could be hypothetically bankrupted, i.e. in seconds.
Are you referring to those new fancy French reusable containers created due to new regulations? People were going crazy over them on TikTok because of how cool they looked. What do you think of them?
I think the BDFL’s do an automated review of project usage of the python batteries before they even deprecate a standard “battery”. And of course only when there is little to no community backlash with deprecation they move forward with removal.

Feel safe. But yeah watch for those deprecation warnings ( here are the upcoming ones thus far https://docs.python.org/dev/whatsnew/3.13.html#deprecated)
No offense to Mr Oliver but stunts like these are bullshit. They cloud that water and ultimately don't further the conversation. It's polarizing. Tho' Oliver would be the last to admit it.

I lean left...I'm no longer laughing.
Personally I think OpenAI is more like Xerox. They’ve invented this device (their AI models) that can be used with the right inputs to generate copyright infringing outputs. But it still requires a user to generate those outputs by choosing the inputs. On its own it’s just a tool that’s no more copyright infringing than any other photocopier.
I'll add to this gratitude thread.

Martin has had a material impact on my career. I don't think I would have gotten my job at LinkedIn if it wasn't for his book, Designing Data-Intensive book: https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/designing-data-intensiv...

I learned how to build a web application with FE, BE, DB, and distributed workers for my first job. But it wasn't until I read his book that I understood the enormous gap between building web apps and planet-scale web applications. The book saved me from bombing my interviews.
great point! I don't think your average candidate would do this, but I guess this was an exercise in formulating what such a check could look like. it's overkill for sure, but I do think that accessing this type of info can be valuable.

though i'd say the questions I brainstormed in the bullets are the type candidates should definitely be asking during their interview process
To quote the two concluding sentences of the journal article:

> It is unlikely that the calculated ﬂuxes are sufﬁcient to maintain a detectable biosphere, unless the thickness of organics on Titan’s surface is greater than currently estimated, abundant biomolecules are available from Titan’s rocky core, or surface biomolecules can be delivered to the ocean by a process other than impact. Our calculations suggest that despite Titan being the most organic-rich ocean world in the Solar System, this does not automatically imply an organic-rich and habitable ocean.
The cloud isn't something I'd ever use my private credit card on, there are just too many ways to screw it up if you're not very careful and know what you're doing. I don't think I would have hit this particular issue, but that is mainly because I've read a bunch of stories of this kind and BigQuery is one of the things I associate with "can get very expensive very quickly" based on those.

I know the explanations and justifications for it, but for personal use a service where I can't put a hard limit on usage is simply not acceptable for me. It's just not worth the risk.
Because then we'd see articles about how the next start up missed their opportunity whenever their site unexpectedly got discussed on the latest Rogan episode and subsequently was taken offline by the limits being tripped.
I think I can agree there's a happy middle ground somewhere between "paleolithic misery" and "late stage capitalism climate change induced neolithic misery". Both are extremes of misery of a sort. There's still plenty of suffering now... More if you consider the difference in population between the paleolithic and now.

A global society which works collaboratively to maintain both our modern technosphere _and_ a livable, habitable biosphere. Progress doesn't have to come with all of its current negative externalities -- most of them are driven by short-term profit driven thinking that doesn't take our collective biosphere into account.
My cynical self sees it as how cloud providers aim to make the most money: by making billing oblique and waiting for buzzword-happy project leads to mandate stuff be put on their service without understanding what the end billing will be.

I can't say that's for certain what it is. I just know a hallmark of any business with recurring charges that are otherwise incomprehensible is so they can hit you with the charge after the fact, and you have little recourse to avoid paying it without a ton of work for yourself or your team.
If we're widening the definition of "manual intervention" to "I have to configure my device to do what I want", then yes. Setting up backups is a task that requires a manual intervention.

You want signal to fully automate the process of configuring your device with an arbitrary third party service to send backups to with zero "manual intervention"? I think you're asking for the moon on a stick.
I'm not sure what the costs of this will be, but it'll be tiny on the scale of things. It's all done by GDS in-house, and the design is shared across every government site and app. Before GDS, there were constant rebranding projects across every corner of the government and civil service. Now this is done with one update to a shared design system.

The abstract of the actual paper only claims:

> Unless biologically available compounds can be sourced from Titan's interior, or be delivered from the surface by other mechanisms, our calculations suggest that even the most organic-rich ocean world in the Solar System may not be able to support a large biosphere.

Which is much less sensationalist, to put it politely.
It already happened. Except, well, the blood's on Apple's hands: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pegasus_(spyware)

I wonder how Apple will respond when high-ranking politicians acknowledge that security is a personal responsibility that Apple was unfit to provide in the first place. That will be a fun discussion, albeit further down the proverbial line.
Wow, if it's only 99% catching that condition, it seems even worse! (I read it as 99% re-recognizing un-mangled items, but yes, if it is 99999/100k re-recognizing a good tag, it might be ok to let pass 1/100 counterfeits).
Great question. We're taking an unorthodox approach here.

I don’t know of too many tools that are offering unlimited free calls to OpenAI, which means that all cool LLM-enabled features are price-gated or premium or otherwise limited. It's a bummer to restrict that value. Our bet is that LLM pricing will follow a Moore’s Law-style pattern, at least for a while, that will mean that we can offer better and cheaper LLM-enabled features over time. So in short, we're subsidizing some of the costs now on a longer-term bet.

That said, we can be smart about how we do things technically. We embed, compress, and omit stuff as much as possible to minimize tokens.

Also, we actually just completely fail to handle some things (something like reprioritizing a backlog of 10k tasks just wouldn't work for us right now) so we do hard cap some actions.

It's better (and better still with other providers) but I naively thought that "add more RAM" or "add more disk" was something they would be able to do with a reboot at most.

Nope, some require a full backup and restore.
Ukraine would of course be toast without arms and intelligence from the West, but neither have any interest in starting or perpetuating the war.

I’m just here to correct people who are wrong.

Z-enjoyers like to quip that the only true friend the Ukrainian people have is Putin’s soft heart. The good news for everyone but Putin is that the West has enough to send to give Ukropia the 1945 ending, fulfilling the self-fulfilling prophecy. Nothing I can do to change that.

Russia's folly is convenient for the West though.

I’m positive that things are going to get quite inconvenient in the EU then. The US, too, God willing. What goes around comes around, and not necessarily from the same direction. Believe it or not, not everyone enjoys life under these regimes as much as you seem to do.
David Degner! What a legend.
The specific problem here is that Charles has done less than zero to endear himself to the public. So far his most obvious interactions have all been "Look at me! I'm king now!"

For example - this silly little exercise. And his request that there should be portraits of him in school and public offices.

This will have been filtered through courtiers saying "I'm really not convinced that's a good idea, your majesty." So these public proofs of his kingness seems very important to him.

Meanwhile much of the country is starving or in debt, shops and businesses are closing, and infrastructure is crumbling.

It's not a good look.
