The displays on the T series are relatively easy to replace too, and you can even usually upgrade too if you bought one with one of the lower resolutions - I keep thinking about upgrading the 1400x900 to 1920x1080 on mine, but the cost of the 1080p display is such that it'd almost be worth getting a newer used T series instead.

Do you really want me to use a lengthy bullet list instead of compact prose?

> Deployment simplicity, you don't need wildcard domains or wildcard certificates, or worse DNS API access, you can just self-host one app at one domain like everything else.

At this point, they are not significantly more difficult than single domains or certificates, thanks to Let's Encrypt and ACME. In fact the requirement for domains and certificates has been always the single biggest hinderance, which inherently prevents self-hosted deployments in masses. Self-hosting is definitely a good option to have, but it is unreasonable to assume that most users can have their own deployment even in the near future. Multiple companies seriously tried to tackle them and have failed so far. As such, individual applications are not in the good position to solve these issues.

> I pointed out both usability and security issues.

You only have pointed out security issues, which I acknowledged as a single actual mistake. And that only relates to the domain ownership check, so you can fix them without scrapping the entire scheme.

I can't really see which usability issue can arise from `@example.com` as opposed to `user@example.com`. For laypersons who would use federated instances, `@user.example.com` and `user@example.com` is literally a single character difference and doesn't really matter much except that `user@example.com` is much more prone to be mistaken as an email address (see below). For users with their own domains, any user name is redundant and `@example.com` is definitely superior.

> As for who uses this format: email, matrix, XMPP, mastodon/ActivityPub, gnusocial/friendica...

Among others, email is the only protocol that have achieved common usages, distantly followed by Mastodon. Everything else is a nerdy technology which doesn't count as "everyone else". I should note that I have operated an IRC server for more than a decade and I'm very confident that the number of public Matrix servers is even rarer than the dwindling number of public IRC servers. IRC was once popular only because there were no other alternatives, not because it was open (mIRC was a dominant implementation in its heyday anyway).

And even Mastodon doesn't exactly use `user@example.com`; it uses `@user@example.com` with a prefix `@`, presumably because it allows for shortened handles (`@user`) while avoids a confusion with email addresses, but that can be also done with a domain-only handle if desired. Like, that has been a feature of DNS for the entire time. The fact that both Mastodon and BlueSky doesn't use the exact email address format shows that the exact handle format is not very relevant, as long as it can account for distributed registration and verification and can't be confused with existing usages (i.e. email addresses).

It's not like, say, Apple where the price is the price.

You can walk into an Apple Store, flash an employee badge from any number of companies, and get "Employee Purchase Program" price which is 4-8% off varying by SKU. Doesn't work for products at launch, seems to kick in around 12 weeks after. That's got me 8% off a Mac Studio and Pro Display XDR for personal needs. Whoever is assisting you in the Apple Store can lookup on their iPhone whether your employer gets EPP (and they're usually very happy to help!).

Buying in bulk from Apple as a business? You'll get at least 8% and potentially a fair amount more depending on your annual volume.

Apple discounts. Perhaps not as much as Lenovo. But the price is not the price.

> This is the fundamental problem with trying to have DNSSEC replace DNS (instead of augmenting it):

DNSSEC does not replace DNS. DNSSEC augments DNS.

> [stuff about revocation]

Much of what you wrote there is erroneous:

> [..] you either sign something forever (like ssh keys) or for a fixed time period and treat nonrenewal as revocation.

In DNSSEC you revoke by publishing new public keys in a DS record at the delegation and deleting the old public keys, also at the delegation. No need to worry about expiration -- the DS record has none. There is no expiration in the DS record but that's not "you sign something forever" because the DS record is signed by an RRSIG record that has an expiration.

Zone operators have to re-sign RRSIG records, but that's not really a problem.

So revocation in DNSSEC is easy, and you can do it as often as the TTL on the DS RR allows.

Revocation in PKI is much harder, unless one just goes for short-lived certificates. By automating certificate renewal operations, Let's Encrypt is doing the world a favor, as it will allow servers to have very short-lived certificates, thus eliding the need for revocation (and keeping CRLs small if recovation is still needed).

> [...] if one website's cert expires it isn't the end of the world. When you start trying to sign larger and larger fractions of the Domain Name space, moving up to ccTLDs and then the root, the stakes are just way too high.

Now this is true but it shouldn't be any more likely than other whole-domain outage failure modes of DNS. If you publish the wrong DS records at the delegation, your domain will be out -- don't do that! That's like publishing the wrong NS records at the delegation. The delegator can also break the delegation on their own, but they can do that w/o DNSSEC too, so you're no more and no less at their mercy w/ or w/o DNSSEC. And if you fail to re-sign your zones, you'll have some outages. In practice the right way to do the last is to sign dynamically in your DNS servers using ECC and with some caching, naturally.

> This is why DNSSEC will never displace unauthenticated DNS.
>
> The choices are [...]

The predicate is erroneous, so the conclusion doesn't follow from it. It might follow from other issues, but not the ones you stated.

You shouldn't expect CEOs to care about whether you're happy with your work -- it's rare if they do, and oftentimes it's purely for optics. Sometimes even your manager won't care if you're happy with your job. At the end of the day, you're being paid to do a job & that's all they really need to care about; a lot of managers DGAF. That sucks to hear, I know, but that's the truth.

FWIW some CEOs are better than others. And even if the CEOs are trash, some managers are better than others & will help insulate you from the BS above. But more often than not, you're gonna be stuck dealing with somebody's BS at some point. And it really comes down to how much you believe you'll find a better situation somewhere else, & how difficult it is to get a job elsewhere.
The main problem with socialism is the centralization of power which means dictatorships aren’t mutually exclusive from communist systems. moreover unlike most of the world, North Korea still does not have a market economy. It is still a socialist system. It’s similar to the former nation of Yugoslavia when it was ruled by Tito.

That's their problem. The less they're incentivised to learn and grow, the less they will; and once they no longer consider themselves beginners, they will know less than those who came before. The vicious cycle continues.

Just like json, markdown and rss are open standards, we could make an open standard for app monetization, app discoverability and plaftform integration.

An Open Standard for App Distribution refers to a set of guidelines or specifications that are publicly available and can be implemented by anyone. It could include aspects like app monetization methods, app discovery mechanisms, and integration with various platforms. It's not necessarily a replacement for existing app stores but rather a framework that could be adopted by multiple app stores or platforms. The management or governance of such a standard would likely involve collaboration among industry stakeholders, possibly including developers, platform providers, and standards organizations.

They feed us poison, so they can sell us the cure. I believe that food additives and artificial foods are one of the main culprits for the increase in food allergies. That doesn't mean that the food allergies aren't real, or that this drug doesn't really treat them. Just that there are some insidious forces at play here as well and that if we ate a better diet, free of poisons, we might not need quite as many of these extreme medical technologies to fix the problems the industrial way of life has created for us (while simultaneously solving many other problems).

Good video.
It's a fair point, but I often see all the ideas I abandoned and realize how some of them could have become profitable had I persisted and not lost motivation. Even a tiny setback (say, no response on Hacker News) was enough for me to stop working on the idea, and start working on something new. Of course, you learn a lot along the way, but to have a successful side-hustle you need to learn to sustain and channel the motivation.

As a creative person, motivation is a wild beast for me. Once I lose it for a project, reviving it feels impossible. But the mindset is a bit troubling. I don't think I would ever work on a project long-term working this way. So, while it's okay to abandon your side-project, it's important to make a mental note of why you're abandoning your project and if you can work on something better next time.

There's a lot of progress that can be made in cross-disciplinary areas, but if it's done by one person it tends to be someone who specializes in one thing and stumble upon a low hanging fruit elsewhere. Much more often, in case of deep results, is that two very smart people in their areas talk about their work and discover an opportunity to collaborate.

Most people who claim to be polymaths are dilettantes. Even if they are really smart. People who claim they're polymaths don't have the humility to recognize it's very difficult to be at the forefront of two disciplines. A dilettante wouldn't know this because they don't know the amount of effort and learning it takes to be a true expert.

A true expert spends a lot of time on a subject and may on the surface may appear to have no more knowledge than someone who just reads and follows their papers for less than half the overall effort. This is because much of extra work is spent on trying different ideas and learning for producing the next good idea, or trying to apply it effectively in various contexts, rather than just learning other's good ideas for the sake of it.

Whether the expert is more valuable in dollar terms or potential impact than the dilettante or a humble generalist is another question. People can indeed be good at wearing multiple hats and create value. But I think someone like that should recognize that they are trading depth for breadth and not claim they are better than others at everything they learn.

That paper specifically dives in on the effect of the length of the CoT prompt. It makes little sense to say - "oh it's just the better prompt" when Cot prompts with more tokens perform better than the shorter ones even when the shorter ones contain the same information.
There is also the clear correlation with task difficulty and length.

But have we seen that many people calling themselves socialists not ending up with the same problem ?

Socialism doesnt work because it doesnt consider greed as a positive force. Starting from there, every sign of greed is suppressed until remains only an oppressive bureaucracy in charge of hammering any sign of attempt of maybe earning something.

Socialism is not evil, it's even benevolent: but it's flawed because it ignore 50% of human nature. Better let people deal with their greed in a monitored sandbox that averages out excesses. And that is never called socialism, since it derives too much from accepted socialist dogma.

I live in Hong Kong, so I know how hard the balance is to strike. But socialism worked so little here that most people are 3rd generation immigrants who fled collectivisation, loss of property right and only desire to be left alone by the evangelists of a better world. It's hard to hear people who leave in free capitalist sandboxes lecture us about how socialism could maybe work. Try and weep, as we did.

"Applied Computing Technology" is not something I've ever heard of, however.
