The article is not about "European tech companies", but working in Europe vs working in America.

In this light, how do you classify the products of companies like Google, Amazon or even Intel that have significant number of people working in Europe?
GPT4 feels so much more confident when coding because it is so fast. Claude Opus is generally better for me but takes a long time to reply. It also has much lower limits and sometimes rejects medium size files (75k) as too large. I find the most power comes from bouncing between them. When one stalls hand the bad code over and ask for fixes.
This has about as much basis in science as gay conversion therapies. Or people saying they're OCD because of a habit. There is absolutely no science published in science journals (not some person's book or "treatment program") supporting the idea of "social media" addiction. Addiction has a meaning and when it is repeatedly mis-used and conflated with other things you end up with well meaning social institutions, like the Ontario school board, supporting very unscientific and damaging positions just because of a moral panic.
I wasn't happy when one of my LLMs messed up an equity calculation.

Startups highly value equity and a missing 1/10th of a percent would be worth fighting over.

Once we started seeing issues like this in several enterprise apps, we couldn't stop seeing them.
Why do they do TLS1.3 inside their own network, then?

If they work in high-castle mode, they can as well have their network traffic unencrypted.

Otherwise, as the parent said, they should secure the endpoints rather than rely on COTS to inspect traffic in the hope of detecting malicious patterns.

P.S. This reminded me of an Intrusion Detection System that silently dropped all traffic to what looked like requests to Spring Boot's /actuator* unless it contained a cookie. Any cookie would suffice, it was just a match on the string "Cookie: " in the headers. It took many hours and a dozen of people across the organisation to figure this out. All but productive work.

P.P.S. It's Fortiguard and they proudly advertise this feature here https://www.fortiguard.com/encyclopedia/ips/49620
Polish Amazon is such in a weird spot.

Compared to Allegro, it has close to no offers, and search engine. Just. Doesn't. Work.

these antiplatelets help a little bit w/ overall risk reduction after a heart attack, I'd say, but the big game changer would be a clot buster like an injectable version of alteplase/tenecteplase or something like that. The caveat is that the better it is at reversing clots, the higher risk of hemorrhage; alteplase/tenecteplase is typically given in a critical care/emergency Dept setting w/ surgery/intensivists hovering over the patient...
Having a close family member working in BigLaw in the United States, I can confirm that lawyers absolutely HATE time tracking — so your market is definitely valid.

If you can make this work and get adopted, I know at least one person who would be very happy.

As to getting product-market fit, you will have a huge issue getting traction in big law firms unless you can run the app on-premises or on the local machine, or provide some serious (read: insane) security guarantees. There are simply too many information security issues that can be existential to firms and their clients to trust any startup with cloud solutions, whatever dept it is in, M&A, IP, Litigation, or even T&E. (I've tried to suggest solutions many times for many of their information mgt issues, and it is a hard NOT EVEN CONSIDER). Perhaps if you get bought by one of the major cloud firms, they might consider it; e.g., I know they are using MS products, but IDK if they are self-hosted or not). Small firms without those kinds of issues are your best bet right now, but even some of them have litigation issues with serious InfoSec issues. Perhaps (this is just speculation) dedicated and isolated server racks for each client firm and VPNs could work. In any case, put that up-front in your sales pitches.

The other thing you'll need is connections to the phone system and the lawyers' mobile phones to at least capture call logs and link them to clients. This should be easier as the firms install partitions with their own software on the phones.

The other thing that takes almost the most time, is composing the description for each time block for the client to read. These entries must essentially "sell" the time block to the client, informing them of the work that was done in a way that they agree that it delivered value. If this part isn't done well, the clients tend to challenge line items on the bill, consuming valuable time and getting write-offs. Presumably, you could train the LLM on all past bills to pre-generate good descriptions for each time slot, which would help as it's easier to edit than to write from scratch. Also, doing anti-training on past entries that were written off may be very helpful (at this point, they just have forbidden word lists).

You are definitely on to a hot market, and I hope you can get to market fit really soon — may the wind be at your backs!
the way you secure a network is to not allow insecure devices to connect. If you mitm the network, all you do is increase the amount that an insecure device can mess with other devices.
No, you do phishing of your own employees to identify employees who need more training. What would be the outcome of doing it to your customers?
'Shortcuts Everywhere': How Boeing Favored Speed over Quality
Running managed phishing campaigns against your internal staff erodes trust too. It’s a widely implemented practice but I’ve never seen evidence that it actually improves security or whether the negative impacts of trying to trick your own staff are actually worth the tradeoff. My sense is it’s really only useful for measuring how porous your organization is to phishing to decide how to invest in training/other security efforts.

I suppose with internal users you can theoretically target test-failures for individual training or performance intervention - for customers you can’t do that.
You can do it but don't tell them you're doing it. Either they don't bite, nothing needs to be done, or you hook them. Don't tell them, but now you know what works. Next, educate them through normal channels, or change something about your communication with the client that makes them recognize the phishing attempt next time. Change something to make them phishing attempt stand out more.
Bitcoin, store of value. Don't underestimate this itself as the main utility.

Sure, it has quarter to quarter volatility, but year on year, given the 4 year halvening cycles, it is proven to be a tremendous store of value.

Mostly thanks to built-in scarcity, dollar-printing and nothing else.
The cause for adhd is literally a disfunction of the dopamine receptors in your brain. You dont understand what adhd is like. "just block distractions lol". Like telling someone who is depressed "just be happy" or someone with anxiety "just dont worry about it".

> Practically, I don't think Jews really had another place to go - remember, most of the Jews of Israel were either fleeing Europe before the Holocaust, or were the survivors of the Holocaust, or were ethnically cleansed from surrounding Arab countries. It's not like they had anywhere else to go.

Not true. One proposal was the Kimberly plan, which received strong push back from proponents of Zionism that simply refused to settle for anything less than Palestine. Theresa very real case to be made that had there been stronger support from Jewish community as a whole that this may well have actually ended up being the outcome.

> This is very wrong. For one thing, you're ignoring the 20% of Israelis that are Arabs/Palestinians, but I'll assume you meant the Jewish ones. There has been continuous Jewish habitation of Palestine for literally 2,000, since the Jews were forced out

Not the person you're responding to, but personally I'd say that's largely irrelevant. Any perceived connection to a land that anyone has is something learnt from cultural context. There's nothing that empirically literary connects people to an arbitrarily divided portion of land. Countries are an abstractional fiction. Religions and cultures build stories upon these abstractions with varying levels of historic accuracy. Through exposure to these stories people develop a perceived connection with essentially no direct physical basis in reality. More succinctly - a person's perceived connection to the land depends almost entirely upon their exposure to certain cultural stories.

A small portion of the perceived connection to an area is obviously related to literal experience and exposure to said area. The fact that the is often mentally tied to back to an abstraction like a "country" implies that these experiences are secondary to the broader cultural stories.

In terms of immediate (non-cultural) connection, it seems pretty accurate to say that immigration and conflict is going to be a significant factor for everyone currently in Israel. Be they the descendants of immigrants, direct immigrants, or the descendants of people historically living in that area (having ancestors that lived there doesn't historically doesn't preclude them or their parents from being impacted by the creation of modern day Israel)

Unless it was successful ;P

Not even in terms of an exit, just in terms of getting traction, and being a compelling product.

One of the things that made me comfortable quitting my job to work on my own thing (which I'm not taking investments for), is that even if I'm not successful in finding a revenue model, I have every bit of confidence that my web app will have wow factor.

I figure listing myself as a founder of a running project which (hopefully) has users will be a good sell on my resume.
The Houthis took out my Ring doorbell
Early this month, I noticed a degradation in the quality of service of my Ring doorbells. Some videos of detected events are not available in the cloud. On March 11th I called the Ring Technical Support number and reported the problem. They ran me through their checklist, but there was no improvement. I was beginning to think that I had a hardware problem with my doorbell, but it seemed fine locally.

This morning (March 28th), I called Ring Technical Support again to see what could be done, or cancel my service if the problem could not be resolved. They ran me through their checklist again, with no improvement. During the many times that I was on hold with their Technical Support staff, I decided to see how far I could get by troubleshooting on my own.

I identified the IP address of the doorbell on my IoT LAN and looked at my router logs to see what it was doing. All the ports on the local Ring doorbell were closed, but I saw that it was making a TCP connection to ec2-54-165-203-48.compute-1.amazonaws.com [54.165.203.48] on port 9999. From my IoT LAN, I ran mtr -t -T -P 9999 ec2-54-165-203-48.compute-1.amazonaws.com and saw 0% packet loss for the first six hops (up to the HA AWS pair 99.83.116.142/99.83.116.146), but >50% packet loss to the endpoint.

So the problem was entirely within AWS!

I also noticed the average ping time to the 142/146 pair was 8.1ms, but it was 76.8ms to the endpoint. Assuming a V-factor of 2/3c, the problematic link is ~9,538 miles away from me.
All of a sudden, I remembered that on February 24th, the Houthies cut some of the undersea Internet cables off the coast of Yemen, which is ~8000 miles away from me (as the crow flies).

It's pure speculation, but given the timing of the incidents and the location of the problems, I believe they are related.

I'll have a look. Thanks! I'll avoid using potentially transient details of Linux's ELF loader, though, since I use `btry` daily and don't want to tempt fate to have it suddenly break following a kernel update too much. (Perhaps that's a bit silly given the hardcoded `/sys` path and syscall numbers.)

What about subway lines in the Bronx?

As someone who lives & works in the Bronx, I haven't encountered any harassment in the Bronx lines. Pretty much every negative experience I've had on any subway line has been in Manhattan.
I would avoid dealing with any company that did this sort of thing, even if they offered me a way to opt out of it. In order to play "we were lying to you for a good reason! isn't this fun!" games with their customers, a company needs to cross the "we lied to you" line, and that is something they should not do with their customers.

(my employer runs these sorts of tests and I'm fine with it, the expectations in that relationship are quite different)

+1. When in Poland I use Allegro all the time - way more reliable than Amazon.pl. Not as good as Amazon in the states though.

My friends who moved back from the Bay Area still prefer to use Amazon, but they use Amazon.de instead - similar shipping times, and much better selection and reliability.

I agree with you.

However, in this case, the edit is disclosed at the bottom of the article. Do you think this isn't sufficient? Does the edit disclosure need to contain a link to a diff of the changes or does it need to be at the top?
Mostly fair, but the figure for "homes with a gun" is around 40%. And I assume some portion of the group isn't paranoid or "heavily armed".

I was debating the rather blunt assertion "Americans tend to be heavily-armed paranoiacs" versus your more nuanced notion of who cops tend to come in contact with.
I had a mixed feeling about your idea of writing your own HTML renderer (because making it so it is actually compatible with how browser engine are rendering their stuff is actually very hard, and even browser vendors don't actually agree on how everything should render) but seeing that you are leveraging work from servo, and even hired a former mozillian in that effort makes me much more confident in your ability to actually deliver.

I wish you good luck!
wow.. i know what you are talking. Is meta-cvs available somewhere?
I had a role open for a sr. Sys admin.

I got 150+ applications per day.

At some point, you just have to close the window. I can only realistically do 10/25 résumé per day and still do my job.

All most all hiring has a strong element of luck. I've hired really good engineers that can't write a resume or aren't self promoting enough in an interview and they seem kinda flat. But they roll in and make good decisions, good products, good documentation and they are easy to work with.

If I could, I'd talk to everyone on the phone for a few minutes to get a feel but I can't do that either.

This is what the internet used to be like. Nowadays, something like this would be unthinkable. But you could use Pidgin to connect to Facebook Messenger, AIM, ICQ and MSN. No, you couldn't necessarily use your AIM account to talk to somebody on FB, but that was only because the companies making these services didn't implement this. The fact is, it could've been done if they wanted. The technology was there, the environment was there, the open standard that almost everybody was using was there.

Now you have Discord, Facebook, etc. banning third party clients and enforcing a walled garden when they don't have to. It's a conscious choice they're making.

I'm not sure why you're defending the current state of things. It's worse now.
The idea is to preemptively 'harden' your customers against real phishing attacks by exposing them to controlled, simulated ones. By increasing their wariness and increasing their suspicion of fraudulent communications, you're trying to inoculate them against actual threats.
> I use HN because I actually get a lot of value from it. Great dev tool recommendations, it’s a great GitHub repo discovery tool, product ideas, I learn a lot and I get to hear/read from many startup founders.

What makes you think people don't get value from facebook, tiktok, youtube, instagram, etc? There are tons of great material on tiktok, youtube, facebook, instagram, etc. There are tons of junk to waste time on too. You can learn computer science, math, languages, etc on tiktok, youtube, etc. Or you can watch cat videos. Also, people who waste time on tiktok, instagram, youtube, etc waste time here as well.

> From this experience I know kids have no hope. I mean none.

Most of the kids will be fine. Most parents care about their kids more than you care about them.

Future generations will be fine. It's you, me and the current generation that is doomed.
>I'm curious what fraction of people who drive a personal vehicle into lower Manhattan on a regular basis are poor or middle class. What would your guess be?

Beats me, I haven't been there since the late 90s. If 90% of the people who drive personal cars are rich people who can afford it, it's just a tax that doesn't accomplish anything (except revenue generation and keeping the poor/middle 10% off the road) because they will most likely be annoyed but not deterred.

It will hurt the Uber drivers and delivery drivers and whatnot too. Probably tourists as well. I wonder if the city will keep metrics up to see how well it's working. Maybe I'm wrong, but it doesn't seem well thought out.

Why just Manhattan you think? I guess it's where are the businesses are.

That ratio doesn't mean shit when you are homeless and starving to death due to poverty caused by having your means of transportation taken away from you, or by the combined effects of having that taken away from you along with the added fines and penalties of breaking the law by driving when it's illegal for you in order to try to break out of the loop.

All it means is your kid gets less and thinks less of you for it. Poorly thought out plan that punishes the poor and the children dependent on them.
Yeah, I'm very confused by this. Why is the example also showing a hard-coded 2023 in the component usage? Shouldn't the component be responsible for rendering that?

Dormition versus Assumption

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dormition_of_the_Mother_of_God...
The same thing? I'm guessing there is a large number of non-tech employees that are bank customers. Sure, tech jobs might "train" their employees about phishing. I highly doubt the employees in the construction, automotive, service industry, retail, or any of the other than tech industries do any kind of anti-phishing training.

I can sympathize with a bank wanting to at least offer some sort of anti-phishing something to their customers. After all, it is the bank that has to deal with it when things go wrong. They have already started some customer education attempts with "we will never call you" type of things. This could just be the next step in that.
People were also a lot harder back then because life was harder through the entirety of their existence. Obesity was rare, the average level of fitness was much, much higher, and the teens and adults probably showed a bunch of survivorship bias for hardiness because the weakest died during childhood pretty routinely. I suspect environmental conditions that would kill the average diabetic, obese 45 year old today was just a normal summer day to people back then and was well mostly well tolerated.

Yeah. And you get the storage for free if your distributed design also uses the erasure-encoded chunks for durability. Facebook's Warm Storage infrastructure does something very similar to what this article describes.
If you have a suggestion for avoiding that, go for it.

Tribalism seems endemic to humanity though given physical reality sees us dispersed across the globe.

Every attempt at a singular hivemind of social and economic thought has failed as generational churn costs awareness of the origins of a social norm; generational tribalism is even a thing.

How do we defeat physics? Still waiting for those who stare deeply into the machine to answer that. Mathematical generalization of computer behavior is not really upending the time-space continuum but keep staring and believing, I guess.
