I might have access to your device for as long as you have a particular web page open, and want access even after you've closed the tab. So I can escape from a sandbox if I have a suitable exploit, or carry the cookie to a device where I'm outside the sandbox. The latter seems simpler.

Feature differentiation is actually a pretty interesting topic for o11y. You can do many things with an OLAP store but you need to be aware of the differences with of the shelf solutions, I try to summarize it here:

Good people and bad people are all made of atoms so there's no difference.
You're funny, thinking it makes a difference in the long run.
A couple hundred dollars is nothing compared to the costs surrounding that PC. Compared to how often systems like that get underbuilt and laggy, using an i7 is a good choice.
Yes you will, https://github.com/whamtet ;) ;) ;)
In a war, large ports are very well defended, that includes at least artillery and mines.
A BYD Seagull is $10K, a Dacia Spring is €15K, an MG4 £27k, a Model 3 $33k (after rebate). Why would anybody spend more on Prius Prime? It's less car for more money.

Battery prices are predicted to drop below $70/kWh this year. Electric drive trains are cheaper to build than ICE, HEV or PHEV equivalents even if you include a massive 60kWh battery.

BYD and Tesla both just released horrible Q1 numbers. Both companies have shown they'd rather lower prices than cut production. EV prices are going to drop significantly over the next few months.

non-plugin HEV's make sense. If you can't plug in at home, electric cars are inconvenient and you'd probably run a PHEV on mostly gas anyways, so you might as well save the PHEV premium and just get a standard HEV.

Niche PHEV's make sense. The Ramcharger makes a lot of sense for rural use.

To address your points:

2. An electric car is very good at knowing at knowing what level your battery will be at when you reach your destination. Range anxiety is not a lack of knowledge.

3. Superchargers are now available to Ford & Rivian owners, and will be available to everybody else within the next few months. I've done tens of thousands of kilometers of road trips in an EV, and our EV is a far better road trip vehicle than our gasoline car.

4. The engines and complexity of PHEV's make them cost more then BEV's in 2024.

5. If you don't need >120V to run almost fully electric on a PHEV, you don't need >120V for a BEV either. With 120V you can add 5 miles of range per hour of charging, so can easily cover daily driving with a night of charging. Sure, you can't charge from 0-100 overnight, but how often do you do 300 mile road trips on subsequent days? 120V will let you do 40 miles/day every weekday and 300 miles every weekend with overnight charging. If you every need more than that you can use a supercharger.
There's been demand for LLM accelerators since late 2022, but so far only the Groq cards have materialized and those aren't really viable for anyone but high end enterprise datacenter use.

Literally nobody's making these things yet, Nvidia gaming GPUs remain the best price to performance option lol. Intel Arc only does compute work through Vulkan which is not exactly comparatively fast yet, so despite being well priced for the VRAM they offer they're not seriously considered.
If you think puritanism is such a good way of life, you could always move to Saudi Arabia, Uganda or Texas.

Worked nicely for us. We used it as starting point for an inverse conway maneuver. Was breaking up some silos and we came out with an org that stands less in the way now.
> We are committed to developing this standard in a way that ensures it will not be abused to segment users based on client hardware. For example, we may consider supporting software keys for all users regardless of hardware capabilities. This would ensure that DBSC will not let servers differentiate between users based on hardware features or device state (i.e. if a device is Play Protect certified or not).

Personally I do not believe this for a second. Yes I do believe that this is what they will do now. But in a few years, if DBSC becomes mainstream? I fully believe Google will start abusing this to strengthen their control. It's the same with the Chrome browser that they eventually used to push MV3 and tried to push WEI.

Honestly? I feel that this could be their way of pushing WEI again through the back door, and I am concerned that unlike WEI, this seems to barely get any buzz or pushback from the community.
Not everything can be streamed. Streaming platform are applying censorship. Not everyone is signing in to provide their music to streaming. Also they usually stream not original tracks, but a remaster.
Perhaps some kind of "generative listening" too, taking existing music and adapting it to the listener. Like how a lot of AI art is some kind of "remix" of existing things.
Well the great thing about WebAssembly is that you can port QT or anything else to be at a layer below -- thanks to WebAssembly Interface Types[0] and the Component Model specification that works underneath that.

To over-simplify, the Component Model manages language interop, and WIT constrains the boundaries with interfaces.

IMO the problem here is defining a 90% solution for most window, tab, button, etc management, then building embeddings in QT, Flutter/Skia, and other lower level engines. Getting a good cross-platform way of doing data passing, triggering re-renders, serializing window state is probably the meat of the interesting work.

On top of that, you really need great UX. This is normally where projects fall short -- why should I use this solution instead of something like Tauri[2] which is excellent or Electron?

xz is bundled in millions of combination of OS/architecture/tooling/config, even the attacker had to make a choice.
As a developer, this amazes me, and it just shows what — to me — feels like a top-tier attack method, is probably only entry-to-mid level complexity for the folks working at that stage. Some of the things I see posted here on HN are well above this level, so I'd assume for the right kind of money (or other incentives), this is only the beginning of what's possible. And, if you think of ALL the packages and ALL the many millions of libraries on GitHub, this vector is SO EFFECTIVE, there will be hundreds of cases like it uncovered in the next few months, I am certain of it.

I worry about all the con/pro-sumer hardware makers, from Philips Hue to Alexas, from the SumUps to the camera makers, from Netgear to TP-Link. All their products are packed with open-source libraries. And I am 100% certain that most of their dev teams do not spend time scanning these for obscure injection vectors.
My god, Hans Jansen? You need to be 60 years old to have that name in The Netherlands, it's so stereotypical that it would definitely ring some alarm bells if I saw it.

It's like seeing a "Bill Johnson, real American patriot" account on Twitter: would not believe it at face value.
> To offer an app for download from a website in the European Union, developers need to meet specific criteria. Developers need to be a member of the Apple Developer Program for two continuous years or more and must have an app with more than one million first installs on iOS in the European Union in the prior year.

How on earth does this not violate the new EU laws?
Magnificent?? Uh, no.
Looking at UptimeRobot, an established player, is simple, and cheaper than Proberix. Why would I go with Proberix?
> they made it literally possible to get these services

These companies also made it possible for restaurants to be taken hostage and be registered for delivery services or marked as closed/unavailable on those platforms against their wishes, or pay even 60+% commission on an order for the service. Once only a couple of these companies are left standing and have all restaurants in a chokehold I'm convinced the situation will be even "better".

> the the fact that many (most?) people still use UberEats/DD is instructive

Yes, it says that too many people do what's best for them and them alone. It's not as instructive as you think. Many people had slaves because it was good for the owner. What did you learn from that case of "many people do it"?

> I happily pay

You don't and don't even realize that. You get an overall cheaper service but someone pays. Usually the restaurant owner, employees, and delivery people. Maybe some VCs too, for now, while they don't completely own the market. Just like Amazon's same day delivery means some driver has to pee in a bottle for close to minimum wage but otherwise it's absolutely a huge win for everyone who is you, needing the delivery now.

They did do third-party distribution of fortnite already, and still do based on the install flow shown on fortnite.com. (as well as the samsung app store) I have to assume they didn't foresee enough demand for an entire store, especially before android 12 added better support for third party app stores.
Not that strange, unfortunately. Governments have a habit of passing laws (or budgets) that are then eventually declared unconstitutional by courts. We've had several cases of this happening in Germany in recent years (budgets, rent control laws, highway tolls, ...).

At least in some cases, this could be a calculated move, e.g. some law with a lot of popular support that politicians "support", fully knowing that it will not be constitutional (thus allowing them to shift the blame to the courts).
Ross Anderson was so awesome.
I loved his Security Engineering book, it was the only course that I read the recommended chapters for.
If your point is that back in the day people had more freedom than now, I think this is wrong. The US used to be a lot more strict about what you were allowed to say and do. For example Charles Schenck from the Supreme Court case which gave us the phrase “shouting fire in a crowded theater” had nothing to do with fire or movies. He was convicted for handing out antiwar pamphlets and sentenced to 30 years in prison. It wasn’t until 1969 that speech laws loosened in the US.
Rust Memory Safety Explained
This looks like a singular feature rather than a startup idea.
Autotools-based build infra is always crufty, fragile, slow, and fugly. In a lot of cases, it sucks because it's what we have right now without doing the work to replace it with something equally flexible.

Build infrastructure should be minimal, standardized, and not subject to endless special, undocumented fragility.

cmake, just, conan, meson, and bazel (and forks) exist.

But I've still yet to see a proper build system that does feature detection in parallel and concurrently, or supports live, incremental, continuous, cached rebuilding.
This feels a bit like saying you can run as fast as Usain Bolt. Theoretically many things are possible, but I don't think I've ever seen a readable bash script beyond a trivial oneliner and I've seen a lot of bash in my life. Or to maybe explain from a different perspective, ask a room full of developers to write a bash if-else without looking at the docs and you'll probably come back with more different options than developers in the room. Ask the same for a language such as Python and you'll mostly get one thing.
I'd go even farther than that and suspect that in many areas avoiding blunders gets more important climbing to higher levels.

Just the other day I explained this to my daughter:

In our school system a 1 is the best grade a 6 the worst.

Maintaining a 2.0 average is kind of easy. When you blunder and get a 3, all you have to so is getting a 1 eventually to compensate.

Maintaining a 1.0 average is much, much harder, because you have to write 1s consistently without any exception and no way to fix a blunder(*).

In many systems there is a hard ceiling of what you can achieve. When your performance is measured as an average, this makes the system more unforgiving for blunders the closer you are to the ceiling.

(*) Technically, in our school system this is not entirely correct, because I think you could theoretically get 0.7s. The overall point still stands, because there is a hard and positive limit.
To add to the points from others: 3+-body systems are generally chaotic, so you cannot predict arbitrarily far into the future, but the solar system is reasonably well-behaved in that manner, so the timescales are long, but we don't know where the planets in the inner solar system will be in their orbit in ~5-10 million years (as in, that's the timescale where the error bars for the position in the orbit span the whole orbit). Of course, if you care about more precise predictions then the timescales are shorter: eclipse predictions more than 1000 years in the future are likely to be quite inaccurate.
Avoiding a monoculture by introducing a VC-backed alternative is just asking for another monoculture.
Cuda is nasty and implementing your own engine is great. One of those two is in the process of falling apart and they're both very complicated, no deal for me.
"Google employee Ryan Lothian responded to the thread, saying:

Hey folks, thank you for reporting this behaviour.

To protect users privacy, the Google One VPN deliberately sets DNS to use Google's DNS servers."

Love the cognitive dissonance. Google is the world's largest, most well-funded and pervasive threat to privacy.
In my experience with enterprise SSDs (which yeah aren't the same but that's what I have to offer), SSDs with sequential serial numbers and identical on-times, in the same RAID array, can have wildly different actual endurance. Some storage servers I used to admin had SSDs lasting longer than 2 neighbor replacements from the same original box, and this happened at least twice.

I stopped being worried about on-times after that for SSDs. HDDs are still quite correlated (on the order of months) but if you're building the server you have to put the disks in it at some point.

There's nothing like the Berkeley Bowl <3. It's Trader Joe's + Davis co-op on crack^2^5.

Various cities around the West Coast and Austin also have co-op grocery stores, but Berkeley Bowl takes it to a different hypermart level while retaining a flavor reminiscent of Whole Earth Access.

And, honestly, even the Whole Foods (Amazon) flagship HQ store is a disgrace and a disaster: they don't sell any form of pita or lavash bread of any sort and half of their bulk bins are completely empty as of writing. This is a consequence of corporate bean counters who optimize for the wrong things. They were supposedly once a boutique bougie grocery store patterned after Italian grocers but instead developed into conspicuous consumption of pseudo luxury by anyone who drives an Audi or BMW.
Why? Just have one person show up and everyone else funnel the work through their account.
How-to-bypass-FunCaptcha: different ways of bypassing FunCaptcha
Probably marketing but depends. Netlify is suited to static pages only and Vercel can do a lot more.

But to be honest, both of these don't make any sense as both of them are VERY expensive for what they offer, even when starting out because their service is mostly geared to VC backed startups and enterprises.

You can get very far by just having a VPS + Cloudflare that costs $1-10/mo even with 'one click apps' these days.

You don't need Netlify or Vercel.
Permanently embarrassed if we're being realistic.

Usually you can tell if an HP has this crap preloaded if it has an e on the end of the model number, however this one doesn't seem to?

I just avoid anything made by HP, everything from their laptops to printers to servers seem to suck nowadays.
I had been using chatgpt for something similar in the past. I like the fact that you are integrating a timer and music into it. How do you set yourself apart beyond that? Chatgpt, for instance, could also help with things like "I want to work on foo, can you help me break it down into tasks?".

I see a lot of potential in this - for instance, you might be able to integrate calendar integration for picking time slots for non-immediate tasks a la Office 365 which auto-creates focus times. Also, it would be good if I could curate a subset of tasks suggested by the tool as a list outside of the immediate short term memory of the coach.
or make.go, for some project it makes sense to not add another language for scripting and building tasks. It way easier for every one to have to master multiple language.

Often times you'll find that consumer drives that are limping around do fail smart checks and would absolutely flash a red light and send out a monitoring alert were they in an enterprise enclosure. While there is probably truth to what you're saying, I think the enterprise is also just way more proactive at testing drives and calling them dead the instant the smart checks fail, where consumers don't typically use crystaldiskinfo.
But the blunders are where all the fun is.

Apart from them, games are boring mechanistic jobs.

If the enemy doesn't blunder I start to blunder as I'm getting more and more bored with the game.

If enemy plays bad I also get bored and blunder.

Anything to put the spark back into the activity that was supposed to be engaging.

Not necessarily. You might end up just building things on top of things spiral which reduces the ability to think clearly.
There's an app called reprovision that can do the signing on device. (it also needs to sign itself, so that uses up one of your free slots) IIRC, when I used it any icloud login worked for signing, not just the one tied to the phone.
I think there's a trap that hits founders: "What do you have to do before you build your unique idea?"

Well you need to setup boilerplate, buy a CRM, buy an email marketing tool, etc. and like 30% of companies think "oh this kind of sucks" and make one of those steps their company.

Nothing against the project but certainly one of those.

In particular I think it overestimates then pain they solve and underestimates both modern frameworks eg. T3 stack, and in particular how difficult getting something through enterprise procurement.

I can't imagine it being easier to get this bought than to do that stuff yourself, particularly when it makes you look bad as a dev to need help with the basics.
They're test cases for a compression library. Seems pretty reasonable.
> who almost everyone would say it was not good that they were helped

I'm sorry, what? Only in the US helping someone can be sold as a bad thing. It's better to help a few more people that may not really need it than help a few fewer that actually did.
Transcription apps are your friend.
I have wondered what the insurance structure for this is and how liable the vessel's owners and insurers are for damage to public infrastructure.

Marine insurance is one of the oldest types of insurance and antique in some respects, with large vessels covered by several underwriting firms. So potentially this is a massive financial hit for multiple companies if there is not a limit on liability.

Is there any example project utilizing one of the available WASM runtimes that could load, instantiate and run WASM module on android in near native speed, not interpreted (not web browsers)?

Recently I investigated few WASM runtimes and honestly could not manage achieving this task. Only suggestion I got from people is load bunch of packages using termux package manager and operate in shell environment on Android to compile and run example projects.

I would appreciate link to some project that results in APK which (as part of its work) calls WASM function in non-interpeted mode on android (arm/x86).
It's usually 5 years, Intel now do over 8 years, fabs can have a useful lifetime much longer than that. However Intel historically recycled old fabs to create new ones, so in practice they don't have many old fully depreciated fabs.

Some companies I know that know they aren't compliant actually block users outside via IP addresses to 'comply'.
