As far as I know, that’s correct. macOS never sees any of the fingerprint data, and thus it can’t be read or intercepted easily.

The Secure Enclave can also store various keys, which apps like Secretive[0] can use to store and gate access to things like SSH keys with. Feels a little nicer than letting them rattle around loose in ~/.ssh/ where any passerby can pick them up, is more convenient than an a USB key, and lets me know when something is trying to use it by way of unexpected Touch ID prompt. It’s a feature I miss when using my Windows/Linux laptop.

Milgrom's perspective on the Bullet Cluster: overblown and completely expected.

Maybe. It depends what the definition of "object-oriented" is, which depends what the definition of "object" is. Neither of which has any semblance of agreement among programmers.

Many people would define an object as something that has externally visible behavior and internally hidden _data_. Objects could never be compared to each other for equality, because one could not access the internal data, only its public behavior. However, Java records can be compared for equality which objects would not.

Java records also cannot be extended from. Inheritance is the only uniquely OOP feature, which doesn't apply here either.

So I'm not sure that Java records are an object-oriented construct. First, the precise definition of OO should be established, and then we'll see
Well we more recently had lead in petrol. Hard to believe we made that same mistake twice.

I agree regarding the psychosis thing. When I read the comments section of politically themed YouTube videos I actually get scared how insane people have become.
why not just use something like Notational Velocity?
I think that is my overall point though - we created a system (AI) based on how we see one aspect of a particular organ or system (brain, cortex, etc.), and, in this case, labeled intelligence as 'predictive behavior', and so develop systems after that model. But for starters, only mammals and a few other life branches have cortexes, and cortexes weren't always around.

Evolutionary theory isn't hinged on prediction in itself, it's just one possible aspect of it. But, organisms that rely on prediction or primarily see themselves as predictive machines will state the opposite, because we cannot do anything else but model off what we think we know.

It is also further diluted in the sense that we are always limited in what we can model because of the digital nature of our medium as it attempts to model analog systems. It is like saying that the words that I am typing right now are just like having a real human conversation. No, not really. It is a diluted form of conversation that focuses on a specific, bare part of the communicative process.

Psychosis has always been common. I believe single digit percentages of people experience it. If you know 100 people, maybe 1-4 of them experience psychosis. I have been close to two people who do.

One of the major differences about why it's so visible right now is that the internet is enabling psychotic people to find like-minded psychotic people and form communities. Qanon is one example. "Gang stalking" is another. They find people with the same delusions and riff off of one another.

In the olden days, one individual suffering from something like this can stay isolated, and their ideas do not travel that far. Today, they can find their tribe online. They can have meetups. They can act out their delusions en masse.

Steps in a stage are hierarchical.

The final result need not be.
You can build a bunch of things then merge the results in a final stage without any hierarchy (this is "COPY --link" in a Dockerfile).
I mean, if there are countries where one can legitimately say land is scarce, Netherlands is definitely one of them. Compare maps of the Netherlands today with 100 years ago and you can see they've done tons of land reclamation and draining projects. And it wasn't for fun, it was because they needed the land for agriculture and human settlement.
I'm not sure why you would think that. There's all kinds of substances that humans take (Alcohol, drugs) that change their mental state. Why is the idea that environmental pollutant could be doing the same, so rejected by people.
Is it an ego thing ?
Possible; I don't have a feel for the relative likelihoods. I think the thing nix has going for it is that you can write a nix package definition without having to actually hardcode anything in and nix itself will give you the defaults to make ex. compilers be deterministic/reproducible, and automate handling flake.lock so you don't have to actually pay attention to the pins yourself. Or put differently; you can make either one reproducible, but nix is designed to help you do that while docker really doesn't care.

I'll grant that I was exaggerating. That's my bad. It's only 1/6th of the essay.

Re: making two comments:

I made the first point to criticize the low quality of the article. It is a low quality and dismissive article that misses an opportunity to talk about the technical meat of the theory, even through analogy. That's still true.

In the second comment I mentioned the mond thing it because it was directly related to a reader's misunderstanding, and because I felt introducing mond into the article was a red herring that had contributed to this misunderstanding. They reader thought this was specifically a MOND theory, and was therefore dismissing it out of hand. I don't think we should dismiss this theory so easily as that.

Re: correction

I thank you for your comment and your correction. I know it was probably not very pleasant to write, and I know my self correction is not to the extent that you wanted, but your paragraph count helped me see I was exaggerating the MOND claim. Overcoming my own tendency to exaggerate things is very important for me, since it gets me in trouble, or gets my otherwise good arguments dismissed. I sincerely thank you for helping me with that.

Re: changing my opinion about the article

I still regard this article as an opaque and low effort treatment of the work at hand. Perhaps you could express how a particularly clear point in the article helped you understand more from the paper when you were reading it? That kind of testimony could help me understand how to see this as a good article, and to see where the value is. Thanks!

The biometric part is incidental. The thing that makes it more secure is that authentication is done by a separate trusted system: the secure enclave, which has its own separate processor, OS, and input device. The primary OS tells the secure enclave to start a security challenge, and then the secure enclave reports success if you scan your finger or nothing if you don't. Malware can't fake this response (at least not without having already pwned your system to an extent that it doesn't need your password), and popping up a fake TouchID dialog doesn't really achieve much of anything. Infecting the secure enclave with malware would let you break everything, but unlike the primary OS it's not designed to run third-party software, so that's significantly harder to do.

FaceID swaps out the fingerprint reader for facial recognition but the actual security features are the same. Yubikeys are the same high-level concept, although the implementation is quite different.
While I can't quite say how big each effect is, it's undeniable that a big part of the difference in autism diagnosis is just the fact that we test at all. I grew up in the 80s, where the level for someone to be diagnosed with autism required being pretty close to non verbal. But if I look at my old classmates and think of people with significant sensory issues, social dysfunction and such, it's easy to imagine that today, a lot of them would be diagnosed as having at least some form of Asperger's today. Just like we had clearly gay kids, and others with behavior that today would indicate gender dysphoria. The kids with ADHD symptoms? They were just too active and refused to concentrate, no diagnosis outside of the most extreme cases.

We have different standards and different levels of attention. We don't just re-diagnose adults, so it's possible that there is a higher rates today. Maybecaused by something you mention, or straight out selection. Still,ignoring the differences in diagnosis standards is going to get us, at the very least, exaggerated conclusions.
This study is in very young children who haven’t had cellular phones yet. RF radiation falls off very rapidly as you get away from the cell phone.

The increased rate of autism is largely due to increased diagnosis. Autistic people existed long ago, but the diagnosis of Autism obviously didn’t exist in the distant past.

The 70mm imax that Oppenheimer was filmed on is 4:3.

An old standard aspect ratio for television serials.

If you watch Oppenheimer any other way, to remove what are usually large black bars on the sides for contemporary tvs, you are watching a cropped version of the film maker’s vision.

But also, there are plenty stunning vistas in that film.

To be fair, you probably don't have to build your own kernel like fuchsia. You can almost certainly start with a bare bones freebsd or Linux kernel or what ever. You're still making a custom gfx layer and lots of user land but you're get a lot for free too.
Having the author do this for a service written in Go is a mistake. Your first address for containerizing Go services should be ko: https://ko.build/ , and similar solutions like Jib in the Java ecosystem: https://github.com/GoogleContainerTools/jib . No need to require everyone to install something heavy like Nix, no need for privileged containers in CI to connect to a Docker daemon so that actual commands can be executed to determine filesystem contents, just the absolute bare minimum of a manifest defining a base layer + the compiled artifacts copied into the tarball at the correct positions. More languages should support this kind of model - when you see that pnpm's recipe (https://pnpm.io/docker), ultimately, is to pick a pre-existing node base image, then copy artifacts in and set some manifest settings, there's really no technical reason why something like "pnpm build-container-image", without a dependency on a Docker daemon, hasn't been implemented yet.

Using nix, or Dockerfile, or similar systems are, today, fundamentally additional complications to support building containerized systems that are not pure Go or pure Java etc. So we should stop recommending them as the default.

The nuance is that fiduciary duty does not mean sacrificing your future as a business for short term profits. This Milton Friedman definition needs to stop. What Milton Friedman was advocating was the law of the jungle where corporations have the fiduciary duty to cheat lie and steal from their customers employees and vendors.

I don't feel like doing a formal proof, but it looks like it should be a direct consequence of the pumping lemma:
"Informally, it says that all sufficiently long strings in a regular language may be pumped—that is, have a middle section of the string repeated an arbitrary number of times—to produce a new string that is also part of the language." [1]

Needless to say, this exercise would be trivial if you just covered the pumping lemma and its applications in class, and next to impossible if you never heard of it.

Docker doesn't give you the proper tooling to not have to use e.g. apt-get in your Dockerfiles. For that reason, one might as well conflate them.
I would be surprised if wireguard was fingerprint resistant.

If you want to avoid a Mitm from detecting that you are using a VPN your best bet is probably to use some kind of tunnel that looks like regular https traffic. which means it uses TLS either with TCP or QUIC on port 443.
Does it also support AMD APUs?
And the site seems to tend to detect mullvad's wireguard as 'openvpn' while mullvad's openvpn is undetected by it. Perhaps that's what the parent is referring to.

Agreed - i've always found them to be living in a world of their own, which doesn't match the realities of actual networking out there.

In fact, the very same team after touting QUIC over UDP as the revolutionary protocol is now complaining that the real world realities aren't matching their expectations and so are now proposing to do QUIC over TCP.

I won't get into an argument about MOND. Don't take my word for it, take the vast majority (all but a few?) of anyone working in the field. And don't take Milgrom's word for it (or the one reference given) either, for that matter, as clearly he has a horse in the game. Sure you can continue to make MOND work to some degree, but is it really predictive if you keep adding things to make it work? What is the underlying theory? (The proposal in this linked article is interesting in that regard.)

Okay, so maybe I did continue the argument a little :) I love for people working on alternative less mainstream ideas. But MOND was never very alive to begin with, let alone decades later. Let's move on.

It's actually how nix works by default. When you pull in a dependency, you are actually pulling in a full description of how to build it. And it pulls in full descriptions of how to build its dependencies and so on.

The only reason nix isn't dog slow is that it has really strong caching so it doesn't have to build everything from source.
There’s also some non-environmental reasons.

1) Increased diagnosis due to

A) Increased awareness of the issue for both parents and medical staff. I think that one is clearly true.

B) Rational response to educational incentives around relaxed testing for those diagnosed with syndromes. Extra testing time is big. During the Varsity Blues scandal it came out that you could buy paperwork for accommodations for around $5000. Or parents might see a legitimate issue and testing and in-school accommodations convince them that it’s worth getting their child diagnosed.

C) Merging of Aspergers into autism.

2) Increased assortative mating for those with autism or those with autism risk. Some evidence here https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.10.28.358895v1

As to why it might be increasing?

A) Collapse of traditional paths to marriage. If you’re less likely to meet mates by meeting them at church or other community events with a more wide spread selection of people, are you more likely to meet someone else on the spectrum?

B) Increased career rewards for those with autistic tendencies, so less need to find a non-autistic spouse.

No, I'm saying that there's nothing broadly ambiguous about any of these three references, but that of course you can find people with a localized confusion for each.

Your position seems to be that Miss Julie is somehow different or something obscure, and I disagree. It's just an instance of localized confusion.

> The log […]

There’s log/slog now. Is that sufficient?

> and flag packages are often insufficient […]

Yes. Flag is really primitive and awkward to use. On the other hand, in a typical “imperative shell” style CLI, sharing flags between packages is not exactly crucial, which is the main reason to put it in std (interop). I’ve never really suffered from importing a 3p flag parser in my own code.

> and the implementation of net.IP is suboptimal [1].

Fixed for a long time. See net/netip (although I am annoyed it’s not universally available in all net functions). It’s based on the implementation from your link.
You hit the nail with Go's initial purpose. That not only explains the high quality of the std lib in terms of http, but also the lower quality in other areas.

By the way: You still need a DB driver with Go. They just provide an interface, which is cumbersome and error prone to use. That's why the community package sqlx exists.

To create a hello world in Rust, one just needs to add two crates, which in terms pull many other crates. So yes, too many total deps for my taste, but an Axum server is much more feature full than a server build with Go's std lib.

You can also use a hammer to put a screw in the wall.

Dockerfiles being at their core a set of instructions for producing a container image could of course be used to make a reproducible image. Although you'd have to be painfully verbose to ensure that you got the exact same output. You would actually likely need 2 files, the first being the build environment that the second actually get built in.

Or you could use Nix that is actually intended to do this and provides the necessary framework for reproducibility.
Woah. The change happened over multiple generations but they must have noticed, no?
If it makes you feel better I saw this and I don’t know what a “front page on Hacker News” is because all HackerNews articles I see are from Facebook or Twitter (before I left Twitter) I don’t actually visit Hacker News website directly where ever that is.

Ray Dalio's Principles of a changing world order explains the macro forces around Boeing. He predicts we are headed for civil unrest as the rich get richer and the poor get poorer, and that we are definitely creating the conditions for world war particularly with China.

The problem is, how can i trust 2fa will STAY the second factor? If one signs up for a service, enables 2fa, and down the road the product design changes to sms to login or sms to reset password, it should disable 2fa until you agree to the new system. sms backdoor should be a completely separate setting than 2fa, but companies dont treat it that way. the sms/magiclink to login has won.

the answer to stuffing is to mandate services cross reference their account lists against open leaked lists. thats best practice, and not enough sites are banning known passwords.

sms backdoor is WORSE than "nothing" when nothing equals a unique non reused key.
The problem is that 2-colorable is equivalent not to a regular language but an arbitrary language.
