Really depends on the mindset when creating the message. If I message on a platform that keeps history, then I write with that expectation, or at least possibility, in mind. Now, this begs the question - is this modification of behavior problematic, does it detract perhaps from the meaning of the communication itself? Maybe.

The barrier, to me, is broken the moment we use technology. I work with this shit, I know how the sausage is made. I know that the phone calls are as encrypted as HTTP, that everyone can always keep record without you knowing, that even if they promise that something will go away, it may be won't, especially because it's a juicier target now just that promise alone. As soon as something is electronic, then it's a record.
And most of the people won't bother doing it anyway. How many people uses DDG? How many people uses FOSS alternatives with lesser experience at the cost of being FOSS? 99% don't care.
And also that all our sister planets isn't like earth, and they all don't have life (as far as we observed). So it's another point for "not like earth"->"not have planet". Before those expeditions, we thought that fucking sun also has life on it https://adsabs.harvard.edu/full/2011JAHH...14..169C
It’s one of the few big projects that still feels “open source” as opposed to corporate run open source.

I think Netflix is a big user / sponsor of the project.
And knowing what problems should NOT be solved (by tech). Not everything needs a tech solution. There may be many reasons for something not needing a tech solution. The only way you’ll get to learn if a problem needs a tech solution is the use soft skills to talk to not-tech people (often “the business”). Note the not-tech people might think they need tech, or new tech, so you’ll have to figure out by talking to them what the correct thing to do is.
I don’t know how many $$$ I’ve saved companies (as a developer or architect) by challenging them on _if_ they really need shiny new tech thing to solve their problems. Can it be done manually/using existing tools within acceptable time/effort? Can we simply accept not solving the problem? Can we wait with solving the problem?

The thing is, it’s always a tradeoff. If you choose to go do a tech solution to a problem, you are spending resources (people’s time, people’s energy, budget, enduser goodwill, your own focus and bandwidth, etc). And if you are spending resources solving a problem using tech, that did not need to be solved using tech, that means you have less resources to work on other problems that really do need tech solutions.

In general for the “mindset” part of your question I would say learn to figure out the tradeoffs in every decision you make yourself or decision you provide an opinion for. Everything is a tradeoff; doing A means not doing B. You always need to know what tradeoffs are for anything you do.

Edit: Also, always build the simplest possible solution that does not prevent you from improving on it later.
It is basically an easy anecdote one can see day to day about whether there are openings in the local job market.
> Tech interviewing really sucks, but it is still far easier than anything a physician goes through.

Except doctors can go through that once, when they are still young and then they're done with that part.

Software engineers need to do the leetcode dance every single time for their entire life. Which gets harder and harder when you have a family and then kids.
I have yet to find a language/ide with good discoverability. Does the visual metaphor enable the blocks/objects/functions to tell you what they do and how to use them?
The early aughts were like the Wild West in game development. I remember almost taking a job with a smaller agency trying to build their own game engine and similar game to GTA but with a sci-fi twist.

Same thing. Company went under for a myriad of reasons. I should really write a blog post about it, some if was just so fantastical to believe. In the end, the devs scattered in all directions but my buddy took all the source code with him and tried to get a workable version going and release it on an independent label he started just for this game and project.

I ran into him a few years back and asked him about it and he said he still had the CD's laying around in his basement in storage. He said every few months, he would try and take a stab at it, but it was just too much for one person to handle and too many years had passed were it just wasn't worth it any more.

It would be interesting to see how many people had similar stories.
Haven't even looked at Rust code until just now, but yes, that looks like a more formalized version of this idea. Interesting!
I don't think they specifically understood the idea of a "game engine" as the core product at the time. But there are plenty of references if you Google a bit that Quake was designed for modders due to the popularity of DOOM mods - so developer experience was absolutely taken into account from the start.

They had already done licensing deals for the DOOM engine at that point, including the greatest game of all time "Chex Quest."

There's a good-faith community norm that CVEs are for bugs that the reporter believes are security-related. Sure, that norm is regularly violated, but community standards always are and it doesn't diminish their value.

Logistically, I'd think it'd be easier to have the plane return to SFO (potentially after burning off fuel) rather than going to LAX.
Wonder if any Americans go to Chinese tech companies to steal secrets or if there is just nothing there to steal.
About $6000 per tire in the one source I found, which lasts anywhere from 2 to 4 months depending on how many times a day it lands. Bridgestone manufacturers tires for the 777 but it’s not clear if they made the one that fell off
Why don't you support it?

There are government services that use whatsapp in my country. This argument "just don't use it" is very tired.

Interoperability can be achieved with E2E encryption.
I don’t think you realize how exponentially large the possible combinations of 256 characters would be. In fact it doesn’t need to be anywhere near 256 characters. 64 hexadecimal characters would suffice.
> I cannot think of a single example of any company or entity that has been lauded after experiencing hypergrowth

Is it perhaps due to the fact that large-scale success is usually enabled by large-scale exploitation? America is a good example of an entity that was lauded after hypergrowth, but only after denouncing the autocracy that made it.

Perhaps more companies would be lauded if they denounced the horrible practices that put them on the map. At least, it would make it easier to rationalize their behavior in the face of their progress.

> It does not matter how many free services you provide, how much further you have pushed humanity forward, how many billions have come to rely on or even enjoy what you have made

It quite literally, doesn't. If you do any of these things while disrespecting hierarchical order or offending human judgement, you will be reprimanded. If humanity stood for nothing, we'd all fall for everything.

For example, war tends to increase the distribution of free services, pushes humanity forward and makes even more people reliant on you. The continued manufacture of war is an enemy to the sanctity of human life and the preservation of order. Every single government primarily exists to regulate the waging of warfare and ensure the stability of it's constituent population.

What I mean is that the same code running on different hardware/os may not always give the same answer. It’ll be close, but you can’t always expect bit for bit identical.
I don't think your response is in good faith, since you are responding to a comment where I explicitly say that I have made no reference to where someone is born, only to their allegiance.

Do you not understand what the term "national" means? A significant number of US nationals were not born here, being born here is not a prerequisite to be a national. While the same is largely not true for China, there are many people born in China who are no longer Chinese nationals because they have renounced their citizenship as part of immigrating and naturalizing elsewhere. The statement I made is not about ethnicity or birthplace, it's about allegiance. /Every/ citizen of China is required by Chinese law to participate in espionage either directly or indirectly as requested, and they are requested, the evidence is insurmountable.
While it's convenient to point fingers at Windows, such criticism often overlooks the broader context of choosing between imperfect options. Opting for Apple means embracing a tightly regulated ecosystem with fewer choices, while selecting Linux can introduce an element of unpredictability. Moreover, many of the issues highlighted in this article are not exclusive to Windows; Linux, too, can exhibit similar or even more pronounced problems, particularly concerning shutdown processes, USB functionality, and driver support.
I think a better question is why do so many Americans identify so strongly with Israel despite it not being a Christian country.

Palestinians being mostly Muslim and non-white is negative for their image in the US no doubt. They're not even African American. If there were more news about white Christian children being killed there would be slightly more sympathy. Even then I'm not sure.
FTA:

>Then there is the third kind of person who, upon reading anything like the quote above, immediately insists that the complainant must secretly be the insufferable one, because actually smart people don't experience frustration for reasons unknown. The implication is that they're the smart ones because they live in a world where the ultimate marker of intelligence is not the ability to discern sound action from unsound, but instead a grotesque meta-intelligence which manifests as the inexplicable belief that no action is ever deserving of contempt, and any deviation from this belief is a humility problem. Their judgement usually comes with a vomitous attempt at a cutting remark which, coming from individuals best described as a sentient LinkedIn posts, invariably morphs into the flaccid "you aren't as smart as you think you are" or "you sound insufferable".

There is a wild sci-fi which imagines a tidally locked planet, and all the weird crap that goes on there. It was a pilot for a TV show which never got picked up, but you can watch it here:

One out of many quadrillions doesn't seem like much of a sample size, for the kind of statistical analysis you imply.
If it's so difficult to report crimes, wouldn't that mean that the crimes that are reported represent the most egregious, since the people who reported them overcame the difficulty in reporting to report the crimes? And, therefore, current policing strategy should -- indeed -- focus on the reported crimes while making it easier to report them?
Yup, 2nd that one as well as the link I already gave. Maybe it's the more direct replacement for old school Anand.
assuming there's a statistically significant increase in these kind of accidents: what's your theory on why this is happening? what has change since e.g. 5-10 years ago?
It is possible my information about The Japan Times is basically historic and out of date at this point since organizations do change. This is the premise upon which the paper was originally founded and continued to operate on for most of its history, but I also don’t follow The Japan Times anymore.
It's amusing that every alternative comment is the guy expressly saying he's talking about nationality held and who they hold allegiance to, and every response is a misunderstanding.

This is normal stuff. You can even lose your US dual citizenship if you serve in another nation's armed forces.

I actually pasted the sequence into ChatGPT and it seems to comprehend him easier than people responding to him. It is always interesting when the Turing test is failed because the bot is too smart and capable of comprehension.
And I rather have the boxes stay where I put them and make a mess of the lines than have the lines be all clean but every time I add a condition all the boxes reshuffle like ServiceNow does in their visual low code programming stuff

So the same loophole Apple us using to render the app distribution part of the DMA moot. I look forward to seeing whether the EU considers this an acceptable interpretation.
Yes, that's why I used C++ as an example. It's very easy to create a scenario where the memory layout your logic (and your type-checker) assume exists just... doesn't. Core dumps from the field with "impossible" values, vtables missing entries, etc.
Show HN: Private Cloud Meets Social Networking
Hey HN community, I've developed a unique social network for privacy enthusiasts.

It's built on the idea of using your own devices as a private cloud, so your data isn't stored on external servers.

Instead, our platform fetches what's needed directly from your device, using it temporarily with RAM storage only.

This approach means you enjoy social networking without sacrificing your data privacy.

Your information remains yours, accessed only when necessary and never stored long-term.

To see it in action, here's a demo video: https://youtu.be/Z9zl-JWXZoE (Signup required for full access.)

Feedback and thoughts are highly welcome.

Thanks.
> the signal to noise has gone down

As far as I can tell, the signal to noise has only "gone down" in the sense of "from really low to really, really low".

> There’ll be a lot more time wasted in orgs triaging non-security-relevant bugs in the future

It seems to me that even before this change there was a lot of time wasted in orgs triaging non-security-relevant bugs, because CVEs didn't carry much useful information before.
They switched? Why? There goes their whole raison d'etre!
In my state you can’t get a learners permit until 16. You get your drivers license after having your learners for 6 month, completing a classroom and a road driving class. There is no road driving test involved at any point.

They’re not going to ship that, knowing their engineering team they’d probably consider it a huge hack. They probably also have considered how proficiently their gpu can drive two versus 3+ 6K studio displays under varying circumstances.

It’s actually probably possible to get this going on asahi via usb a display link. Good thing no ones forcing anyone to run macOS on this hardware.

There’s nothing controversial in what I wrote. They clearly have grown Mac marketshare by building computers using their more restrictive phone hardware.

That’s not my opinion, that can actually be measured from the increase in web traffic from WebKit.

Always happy to see a new entry in simple-ish distributed programming! Could you summarize how this differs from, say, Erlang/Elixir?
Thank you.

So, it seems I had understood the principle the way you explain it, but the code comment on print_point (as I indicated in the top of this thread) isn't saying that.

I find myself utterly torn on stuff like this. I don't know about in this particular case but I think about cases like Ottilie Assing who had her entire (meticulously preserved) collection of letters destroyed on her death. There were countless historical treasures in there that were entirely lost to history. Correspondence with important contemporary people, and entire stories that will just never be known. Frederick Douglass is probably the most significant figure involved, but she corresponded with countless leaders in the abolition, feminism, and religious freedom movements, including leaders of states.

The humanity behind the romantics was so obscured because of their careful crafting of their images, and a loss like that is impossible to even fathom. I'm sure she was in her opinion protecting people, but from this futuristic vantage point where we recognize the humanity in people, the human connection and loss from such willful destruction is painful to contemplate, and everybody involved is long dead.

If a friend of mine asked me to destroy their unpublished work I would, but I would probably hate myself for doing it.
DMA requires that the interoperability be at the same level of encryption than normal chats. In whatsapp's case, that means all interoperability must be E2E
People have told us many times that they tried to use Temporal to solve the problems that we designed Dispatch to solve for, so it's a fair comparison!

What we hope to deliver with Dispatch is a model that is a lot more incremental in its adoption and much simpler than what existing solutions have been able to achieve so far, both in terms of development UX and operational complexity.

Give it a try, and let us know what you think of it!
Do you think there is a general "pro-war psyops" ongoing or are these internet people real? I don't get where they all came from. Like, from nowhere. I mean, most of the gov. parties want to send weapons to Netanyahu. It is like they pretended to not be insane to suddenly rip their shirts off. And all these people with insane ideas on the internet. But I don't see almost any around me.
After reducing the interval, you don't want to use the Taylor series as you're building an approximation that's really good in 0 but not so good moving away from 0.
It's better to use an interpolating polynomial (Chebychev comes to mind) over the whole target interval.

Russia will need to break up into smaller pieces before it is palatable for nato to absorb. Too geographically big right now. USA cannot tolerate anyone else in nato being big in any way that rivals them.
That's not how it always has been. Licensing engines was virtually unknown 30 years ago (and when it happened at all it was within a very narrow range for making games in the same genre, more like asset swaps and level packs than outright new games), and new and exciting in the '00s.
All jobs have most been like this. Y’all had it right but just had to make it more draconian.
CORDIC doesn't use multipliers. That's the whole appeal for low performance hardware since it's all shifts and adds. It can still be useful on more capable platforms when you want sin and cos in one operation since there is no extra cost.
An X Server is a server in exactly the same way and for the same reason that a web server is a server (or a database server, or a file server, or a DNS server...). It runs in perpetuity and waits for connections from ephemeral clients who will direct it to do stuff. I genuinely don't know anyone who remained confused about this once this was explained to them the first time.
In the 2019 article that is linked to in the LWN article posted upthread, that's exactly what Greg Kroah-Hartman suggested: use the change ID that the Linux kernel is already using as a vulnerability identifier.

Unfortunately, it does not appear that that proposal gained traction, since it's not discussed at all in the more recent LWN article.
That's probably a complicated slicing of "stateless state". Racial? Ethnic? Linguistic? Religious?

I'm guessing it would be something approaching "associated peoples who are part of a state, but who have collectively demonstrated a desire for an independent state"?

There are ~40M Kurds.

Off the top of my head, Palestinians, Uyghurs, Basques, but I'm sure I'm missing a ton.

The issue is that most validated scientific results aren't directly applicable as life advice. It's better to be aware that applying them always involves some subjective interpretation, and that's not always better than some heuristic gained from experience.
Our previous governor tried to eliminate state safety inspections but the auto repair shops were able to successfully lobby to block it. Emissions inspections are only required in parts of the state and are a federal requirement which the state can’t avoid.
