I've drop down two networks in my life,

First time I run a dhcp server by accident and suddenly went sideways but the blast radius was small,

Second time and more interesting one,
My campus had a mac address allow list; when I got a new computer and didn't want to handle the process of updating my access access permission, I just run a script to change my mac to the old known address.

Later, I also sold the old computer to another colleague which didn't bother to register as well since everything was working. Long story short, we keep disconnecting each other.

One day I was, "c'mon, I'll fix this". Opened wireshark and started to capture network traffic. I've got a list of mac addresses from the pcap dump and every time I got disconnected, I ran the script spoofing my address to the next one in my list.

That worked fine until the day I spoofed the mac address of a central managed switch that shit itself out of the network.

:)
I don't understand networking enough or maybe what docks actually do. What was the OOP's solution?
>We have people who specialises in respiratory support. Figuring when to put someone on a ventilator, and what type of ventilation they require and for how long are complex questions. There are many many dangers involved which the doctors working with these procedures are very well aware of. These decisions are best made by the patient/patient's legal healthcare proxy in consultation with the healthcare team.

What kind of "the experts always know what they're doing" pablum is this? h2odragon's point is that those specialists were completely wrong.

>Everyone else can be and should be ignored quite honestly.

This article from April 2020 <https://www.statnews.com/2020/04/08/doctors-say-ventilators-...> was completely vindicated in retrospect.
Also, Apple licenses out the Find My tech to other trackers. But... you don't get the new precision finding features.
I bet if you draw a graph of number of parks vs. number of school shootings over time, that one goes up and to the right too.
The blue background isn't lock-in -- it's branding and fashion. It's labeling the in-group and the out-group. The cool kids with their Nike shoes and the kids who got their shoes from Payless Shoe Store. The Abercrombie & Fitch wearing kids vs Costco or Walmart wearing kids.

The sooner it can be learned that a symbol on a shoe is ... kind of a silly status symbol, the better. Same with blue background or blue check mark.
I’ve built my own websites running on NextJS, Django, Rails, Jekyll, and Hugo and it was great as a developer getting exactly what you want. Recently we brought on some marketing people and trying to get things out on a custom Django app was blocking them because of a lack of engineering resources. Their campaigns were delayed and they were getting frustrated. We moved to Wordpress and have setup a vetting process for plugins which they just need 2-3. Marketing can update the website as needed and don’t need engineering time. Most of what they create are forms, blog posts, and pages. So nothing super complex anyways.

As an entrepreneur I see why WordPress has such a large command. Plenty of people who can work on it. If you are nontechnical and use a hosted solution you can create a good enough MVP with all of these plugins. As an engineer everything about it is annoying but it commands 42% of the web so it must be doing something right.
I'm sure this comment will get downvoted and dunked on, but I agree and I would be that if Apple is forced to make changes like these, many peoples' only experience of it would be their iPhone/Apple Watch/etc getting worse.

Some examples:

- A lot of these changes are like mandating that cars have a manual transmission option. Sure, there are plenty of people that love the control, but there are many, many more that appreciate not having to deal with it.

- Every dollar and engineering hour that Apple spends complying with these new requirements is time they won't spend on things people actually want, as well as increasing the surface area for bugs and security holes.

- Apple is the intermediary between other companies like FB, Google, ad networks, data harvesting, government apps, etc. They can't do things on my phone because Apple forbids it. The more Apple is forced to open up, the less protection I have from other powerful players in the tech market.

- Every place where Apple is forced to open up is a place where there's a choice that many users didn't ask for but will have to make (e.g. default browser).

- I've never had to help a relative with their phone. I've had many of them come to me for help with their computers. Their and my experience with computing platforms is worse without the guardrails

I think many computer savvy people don't realize how freeing and liberating it is for normal people to have an "appliance" computer.
Everything is espionage: Things I learned researching Assange
> It was the internet for most people.

It wasn't, though. It was the largest, but never majority (except that I think it peaked with an absolute majority of CDs pressed by AOL CDs, which was an achievement, I guess.)
Of the original sixty applicants, I think that at least five, and definitely more than two, were both qualified and non-cheaters. I can't prove this, but it's based on my entire life experience in the tech world.

If you agree, it suggests that your funnel-evaluation process can be improved.

As an aside, I'm curious that a coding job posted on LinkedIn only received sixty applicants - I would have expected 10x that number.

Anyway ... good luck!

Often, they won't call them gift cards. They'll use things like "verification card." Newly arrived immigrants are often hopelessly confused already. They'll fall for fake job offers. These "jobs" will eventually require them to get gift cards. It can escalate into blackmail. The victim will have handed over all sorts of private information as part of the job application/interview.
Stifling competition though anti-competitive-means results in vastly inferior products.
a few hundred million users vs about 7 billion users tells you a few things, among them which is that game consoles don't effing matter one bit and smartphones are a necessity for modern life. do you not even think before posting stuff like this?
Where would they move to? I don't see them moving anywhere. The page says maybe France, but I think that's unlikely.. higher taxes there I believe and a different language.
The core underlying premise in this article (“ASML is threatening to leave The Netherlands”) is completely wrong.

ASML has pointed out several problems with acquiring top global talent, chiefly among them the reduction of tax benefits for that talent, and the housing market (which hamstrings influx of international students whom can segue into ASML after their masters).

It’s not a threat of “do this or we will leave”, it is an indication of “we might have to relocate future growth if these roadblocks persist.”
I understand that, but it seems like even the MVP "shitty" flagellum would require many mutations that individually have no benefit. But I suppose with enough generations/parallelism you get enough stacking of useless mutations to reach the useful ones.

Basically every smartphone vendor removed the headphone jack. So you’re saying Apple is a monopoly because they have good ideas everyone else copies?
Makes me wonder what’s really going on. I don’t believe for a second this has anything to do with “antitrust” after watching Garland’s presser - they’re stretching the truth pretty bad and the language is along the lines of “they’re making too much money”. Like OK, what does the “GDP of countries” have to do with anything? I thought this is America and making a shit ton of money is legal here.
> iPhone has had 60% market share (or similar) for a long time now, so it's fair to consider that Apple has significant and durable market power in mobile phones.

It has market power, but it's not significantly larger than its competition. It's not 60% for iPhone, and 10% split up amongst 4 other competitors. It's 60% vs 40%... and probably more like 58% vs 42% [1].

Does 8% truly make Apple "dominant" to the point that integrating their software with watches in a better manner is illegal? I find that wildly difficult to believe.

> that is, the long term ability to raise price or exclude competitors.

Apple has been able to raise its own prices, but it hasn't been wildly out of line with competitors.

And Apple both makes phones and the software on them. They might be excluding or making competitors to their software have a harder time, but excluding? Not really - they have only excluded other large companies who have distinctly decided to run afoul of their guidelines (specifically, Epic).

nice ! not only did you get rid of both issues, you made sure they interact with each other for maximum chaos
For your safety, I hope the government is looking out for you.
The first time I read A Deepness In The Sky, I was a bit annoyed, because I was excited for the A plot to progress, and it felt like we were spending an awful lot of time on B & C.

On a second read, when I knew where the story was going and didn't need the frisson of resolution, I enjoyed it much more. It's good B & C plot, and it all does tie in. But arguably the pacing is off.
Yeah, and don't get me started on the audiophile perspective on Bose. Bose is an ear candy brand, what you hear out of them is not even close to what the audio engineer intended the experience to be. I won't fault anyone who's fine with them, but I would never buy a pair of Bose.

That being said, they absolutely excel at noise cancellation, and that's because their core market is airmen, Bose is used almost universally by pilots for their in-flight headsets. It's where they make their actual money.
I'm looking forward to phone companies being targeted by these lawsuits.
For me it's the basic moral position of avoiding companies who suicide their whistleblowers.
Your first sentence is incorrect. Monopolies are not illegal.

From the press conference this morning: "It is not illegal to hold a monopoly, Garland said. "

"That may sound counterintuitive in a case intended to fight monopolies. But under US antitrust law, it is only illegal when a monopolist resorts to anticompetitive tactics, or harms competition, in an effort to maintain that monopoly."

And once you get into grad school they teach that those nice little graphs you drew in high school and undergrad were simplifications of the real world, and whether costs are passed on or not is very dependent on the specifics of the market. And then you hit the real world and realize, it's even more complex again when the costs are felt for some subset of transactions and not others, there are multiple parties to a transaction, etc etc.

Often, a high school education is not enough.
I think many people are exhausted (at least I am) with the constant irrational exuberance of bolting AI onto every technology, product, and service in existence to end all of humanity's problems. It won't work like that.
I don't know about Pebble, but Tile got restricted really hard once Apple decided to make the Apple Tag. There's many rants/statements from the Tile CEO on this subject.

So this behavior isn't a relic of old APIs

That is not a fact.

Progress is accelerating, and we need to keep pushing. It's the quintessential virtue.
Do you get the awesome search by default?
Branch prediction of Virtual Calls has traditionally been to look at the address of the calling instruction, and assume it will be the same target as last time.

But the real penalty for using Virtual Calls is the potential loss of inlining. It depends on how smart your compiler is.
I remember in the early days of reddit there was a guy who would post links to his Austrian economics / Murray Rothbard blog every day, and they would end up on the front page because they had like 50 upvotes.
Wireless headphones are a better experience is basically every way, and yes microphones on phones aren’t a niche which is why every phone has one. Totally unrelated to wired inline external microphones, though.
If you think the regulators understand nothing about computers, operating systems, app markets, privacy, and security, then I'd say you should go get a nice consulting gig with the DoJ because clearly you are more informed and insightful than even their most senior resources.
"Scarce"? They are a trillion dollar company.
If you graph number of internet posts conflating correlation with causation and school shootings, that line also goes up and to the right.
Came to post this too. It was a great piece on it. I'm glad more people are becoming aware of them. They're starting to get out of control.

So was the Bell telephone network.
This looks like the Warcraft gold seller farm setup I saw on YouTube recently but for mobile.

They all appear to show an mmorpg type of game macroing.
> Security.

Why do you think a banks NFC payment app might not be secure? If ios is a platform then another NFC app could be as secure. Regardless, users should be given a choice. You can continue using Apple Wallet app, some other users might prefer other apps.
Why Does the World Exist?
I brought this conversation up a few years ago -- and the general discussion was insightful and the feedback I got was priceless so I decided to do this again. HN - why does the world exist? What is matter and energy? If there is a God - who created him/her and why does he/she exist? Show me your answers. I want to hear them.
Ok, that is fair and there can be a difference in opinion between making such choices more based on subjective opinion and personal feeling vs. basing that mainly on evidence and I do not want to dismiss the former. I understand that the convenience and peace of mind of a solution one trusts have value, and I do not discount those facts, even if I take a different approach to this situation, digging into White papers and whatnot, partly for enjoyment and personal interest. I can even recommend the Apple Platform Security Guide [0]. It's quite a good read, actually.

But no one would force you or anyone else to leave that Apple ecosystem you hold in high regard. There would simply be more opportunity for alternatives that, if they are well implemented, may even provide such a robust product for such a long time that even devoting little energy to the decision on security grounds may make it more appealing than Apples. Or maybe some feature, such as the one I described for accessing banking institutions after office hours, might make such an impact on your situation, that you become more open to those additional choices. And if not, again, you may stick with Apple all the same.

Beyond forks, at this point Redis is an API target that has been implemented by other databases (Dragonfly, Upstash, AWS ElastiCache Serverless).
I've used WinMerge, its very different from the above tool because its still a text diff. It often gets the diffs wrong when multiple lines are involved. Take this trivial C# example: https://www.diffchecker.com/gr0H7qA1/

Most diff tools throw out something that is quite difficult to parse, but difftastic gave me the most concise diff so far.
Reddit IPO'd today and the purpose of this piece is to add whatever hype can be added to that IPO so that PG and other early investors can maximize their return, and then likely, slowly and carefully unload their positions into the public and other investors who will be the bag holders when the price inevitably declines over time.

The "idea" is "make PG even more money", and that's a great idea if you're PG.
> On the other hand, I think the long-term sequalae of the blue-green message is to push people to use stand-alone apps like WhatsApp and FB Messenger

I find it amusing that in 2024 people in the US still talk about WhatsApp as a future step. Where I'm from already 10+ years ago every single person you know would have a WhatsApp account.

With WhatsApp, LINE, WeChat, Telegram etc. I think this is pretty much a solved problem in the rest of the world, really only the US is behind here.
Descriptivism Self-Negates on Multiple Levels
Imagine how much faster it would be with an emergency key unlocking the security deadbolt rather than just the door lock. Housekeeping keys do not have the ability to unlock the security bolt, but management does that can used by the appropriate emergency responders. Police doing an investigation with a warrant would be appropriate, but a cop with a hunch would not
That wasn't a deep dive. That was a terrible and biased article that takes a "Boeing should have only focused on the environment" BS. A piece of rag.
Believe it is recommended to use Alpine.js rather than huge js frameworks. Not sure about its difference with jquery.

I have a dumb 1gb switch that hangs semi randomly but very seldom. Not all devices go throuh it,so the first time it happend was crazy to debug. Because I didn't keep track of which devices go throuh the switch and which ones go direct to one of the 4 ports of the router.

I want iOS to be like macOS in that there's one "blessed" store, but I can sell, distribute, and install apps outside of it without giving Apple a cut.

macOS has proven for decades that a reasonably proprietary OS can be distributed and kept reasonably secure when apps are installed on it outside of an App Store. There's even third-party App Stores on macOS like Steam, Homebrew, and a few more that Indie developers use to distribute apps.
> The only demoes we've seen of Porsche Active Ride are ride stabilizing over bumps, which to be fair is probably the most useful thing for most people. But I'm very curious to see what happens when people start racing with active ride control, to see how cars can start taking performance advantage of these systems.

The article embeds a youtube video showing a record lap at Nurburgring, and specifically calls out a moment where a conventional suspension would result in a small hop, which is entirely eliminated by the suspension.

The video is worth watching if you have any performance driving experience. The car looks spooky stable in the corners. It's very clearly more potent than active damper coil overs. In particular look at how it enters and exits the famous banked carousel corners. It's insanely crisp.

Also it's an oil pump, not air pump. The suspension is like an oleo strut as used on airplanes, but with a pump to dynamically change the oil pressure.

I don't buy that argument. I have more important files on my laptop than on my phone.

Lovely, cool looking tool but OMG i wouldn't spend that on a still.
Pedantically, the regulators on this actually work at FTC, not DoJ. DoJ’s role is certain aspects of enforcement, not regulation.
After they killed Apollo, my usage after 15 years went from hours a day and tanked to a few minutes a month at present. They showed their hand, and I showed myself the door for the most part.

When the email dropped that I was one of the early users offered entrance into the IPO, I pretty much ignored it.
That’s not what antitrust is about. Functionally speaking, you would not be able to prove there’s economic harm. Apple’s share of smartphone does not even compare to MSFT’s share of PC back in 90/00s.
Also, doesn't Apple do MAC randomization on WiFi by default? So, it should be using the same MAC that already exists on the machine already.
DNA sequences are instructions that get printed on the spot and self assemble. This requires a great deal of flexibility so any reproduction would probably look much like what we find in nature.

Or did you understand that and were wondering if we'd ever coopt the bodies mechanisms to create familiar logic gate based compute? Personally I doubt that we'd use already familiar transistors because the process requires ultra pure materials that are modified in very thin layers using gasses to scrape or place individual layers, but maybe we'd find a mechanical analogue expressible via protein, or at that point use purpose built neurons instead.
it'll be super interesting if AGPL actually gets tested in court, showing what the real legal risks are versus the perceived risks
It seems like DOJ might force Apple to make separate "SMS" and "iMessage" apps, and perhaps forbid preinstalling iMessage so users have to download it from the App Store when they get a new phone (giving it equal footing with its competitors). This would diffuse the claim that iOS is downgrading Android users within the same app.
Probably DHCP lease cache problem.
Didn’t they already unload when they sold to Condé Nast? Or did PG partake in the re-acquisition?
I am seeing lots of problems with your argument here:

* One, the amount of carbon that get wasted if that sandwich goes bad is immense compared to the small amount of carbon it takes to make the plastic.
* Two, in places with decent waste management, what is wrong with the plastic sitting in a landfill.
* Three, assuming you are still going to protect food items, the alternatives are all heavier materials that will increase transportation costs and pollution.
I was an active and fairly early Reddit user for many years, but the brutal changes to satisfy financial goals drove me away as well.

I think it’s interesting to see a flagging platform with a user base that will consistently post and upvote “fuck spez” celebrated here as a success, but I suppose the only thing that matters at this level of discussion is the almighty dollar.
This looks really great but also I expect there will be many such tools on the market soon. Are you going for the full VC backed route and if so, how would you meet their high growth expectations? I can see a really nice business here but the music software industry seems highly competitive and full of new entrants all the time.
Realistically, is it possible for ASML to move in anything less than a decade?

I assume they have nearly as much secret sauce and know how in their processes as the chip foundries. Coupled with having to source completely new staff at another geography.

Edit: I guess if a nation state threw $X billions of dollars to bring the company to their shores, anything is possible.
What's wrong with profanity?
So then they found a magic way of inventing free money that conjures money from thin air, without any costs being passed down, according to you.

If they figured that out, then why not set the price to 1 million dollars per transaction?

Zero percent of the costs aren't passed down according to you.

With the extra tax revenue from this magic money machine, we could solve the national debt problem overnight!
I find it somewhat entertaining that the press conference, and to a lesser extent the brief, argues that giving 3rd party dev access to Wallet functionality would result in a more security for the user. I don't always trust monoliths (might be the wrong word?) but I trust Apple Wallet integrations more than anything my bank would try to roll out.

I'm fine with the claim of more competition and more privacy (although I'm not particularly worried about Apple here).
