We're talking about something a bit broader than the article now. The article is just a fun personal interest story that ties into what I think is a more serious problem. Part of the reason NPR promotes Kitboga is to help its audience be more likely to ignore these calls. Awareness works in hand with coordinated Interpol investigations, FCC sanctions of networks routing excessive robocalls, and so on.

The article using catchy just-so writing doesn't mean it's the end of the bigger story.
Reminds me of Google flipping Nest devices from a Linux-based OS to Fuchsia: https://9to5google.com/2021/08/17/google-fuchsia-update-roll...

A lot fewer devices than Apple, but with changing a device's entire operating system a lot more can go wrong. I wasn't on the team at the time, but maybe someone else can chime in with more details.
Given how new this product is, shouldn't trailer focus on what it does and how to use it in daily lives, rather than showing off different colors and finish of the product? With iPhones, Pixels, I can understand this focus. No one needs to explain what they do. Not this one. This the first time I am hearing/seeingyou. So, show me what you can do. Not what colors or material you're made with.
Considering these models are released by "Microsoft AI", I doubt they do anything against the ToS of "Open"AI.

I had a mental health crisis when I first realized I had it (triggered by a really bad audio mix at a concert and some rando chastising "you're gonna fuck up your hearing" when I didn't have earplugs). A few months followed of "oh shit, is my life experience permanently broken now?" and all the bad feelings that connotes. I was in a really bad place.

I've always been someone who can hear electronics - when CRTs are popular, I'd know if one was in the upcoming room while I was still in the hallway. At some point, I realized that I heard all sorts of minor sounds just by existing in my apartment, and that tinnitus isn't much different than that. Helped me chill out about the whole scenario.

My mom taught me "lean into the good, and you'll feel more of the good; lean into the bad, and you'll feel more of the bad." That's certainly been my experience with tinnitus. Letting yourself panic and gloom about it is the worst part of having it. If you don't assign valence to it (don't let it be good or bad, just a thing you experience), it loses its power to drive you mad.

I've seen people reporting these and others a lot lately, mostly using the Google "how busy is it" graph as this does. Does that really account for the amount of deliveries? I've always assumed when that says it's "busier than usual" it's just using location tracking for people actually being there.
>What are you actually suggesting here?

I'm just suggesting that the actions within the article make the situation worse rather than better. As you alluded to, there are other, more fruitful ways to attack this problem, usually related to systemic changes.

I do think his actions count as vigilantism since that term is applied to actions explicitly intended to prevent crimes. From TFA "those who aim to waste scammers' time otherwise spent ripping off innocent victims."

Depends on what you mean by scale down infra.

If they're running their own DC (or their own hardware in a colo) then I believe the only scaling down can by shutting down the systems at night, which, while non-trivial amount in electricity savings, is not really much when compared to the total hardware CapEx or even the total OpEx.

And, even then, you have to consider the cost of shutting down and bringing them up and the complexity it brings.

Now, if they're using a cloud provider they can theoretically terminate the instances. But, even in that case, to do that, they'll have to use on-demand instances rather than use reserved instances which will probably wipe out all the savings.

My study method was to try to think of questions that might be on a test from the material as I was reading it. I'd write up the questions as I went along and then write up the answers and study the answers. It worked great until someone saw my made up questions and they were close enough to the real questions that it was decided I had stolen the test.
> She had a lot of potential for upward mobility as a doctor from the most prestigious school in Brazil.

Potential, and after couple more years of exhaustion and suffering (as graduating from a medical school is typically only first half of the journey)?

If potential far-away reward like this didn't discount to approximately 0 for most people, the world would've looked entirely different.
If they wanted to trace the transactions, it wouldn't require anything as complex as this. They could trace existing transactions with a warrant, which I assume would be easy to get.

The truth is, LEO don't give a shit about these types of crimes, because the CC companies have the fraud already built into their business models (e.g., they've priced in losses).
Yeah I've definitely been saved a bunch of times by long retention, and the BI questions that might arise are impossible to predict. So some sort of retention is definitely necessary, IME.

But let's take the case of metrics as an example--do we need full sample granularity for "old" data? Do we need full tag cardinality? Sample granularity reduction could be done with a transform to rollups at a coarser time granularity. That's a 60x reduction going from Hz to 1/min. You might lose a bunch of frequency information this way, but maybe that's ok?

Numbers are really nice in ways that text is not.
> long-timeout HTTP connection that wouldn't be responded to

This open connection IS the overhead. Some approaches have more overhead, some less. Long-polling these days is not needed and can be replaced by SSE [1] (if you are OK with unidirectional communication), websockets (bidirectional), or callback URIs in the request. The latter is a per-request webhook, essentially, and would have the lowest overhead at the cost of ceremony (the client now needs to have a running web server).

By the way, long polling was popularized by Comet [2] around 2006.

> 50 years of Moore's law improvements and we're back to batch processing.

It never went away.

I did some consulting years ago for a large telco. They had an overnight billing batch process that was obviously critical to the company.

It took about 22 hours to run. They were terrified it was going to start taking longer, if it ever reached 24 hours that would be the death of the company.
How would they even fight Iran? They don't share a border, and you need an army of at least 500k to even properly man the entire western Iran border(Iran Iraq war was I think 600k on each side when there were actual offensives in the mid 80s, and 200k each side when it was just attrition war).

The only way Israel can have a proper war with Iran is by attacking Hesbollah, but thats a whole different topic.
I think the tone was fine. :)
Ah, yes, I'm not talking so much about how they start, but about why it's hard to quit. The short term pleasure is always more compelling than the long term benefit of not being an addict.

This certainly was not my experience.

For additional context, APFS is only supported on SSDs. My iMac didn't have an SSD, but it did have an upgraded HDD that I chose while buying the machine from Apple. While performing the OS upgrade that was supposed to determine APFS wasn't applicable, it thrashed the bootloader and wouldn't proceed (something about not finding the unmounted partition? IDK it was several years ago).

I hadn't been keeping proper backups either, but was able to manually backup the most important stuff using Target Disk Mode. Then, to Apple's credit, I eventually did a full reinstallation of the broken macOS, which amazingly kept my files intact.

EDIT: I originally said the migration "bricked my computer", but greedo is correct that it wasn't permanent damage.

List your fav features of IMDB that you want to emulate in your project. Then, scope your project to something you can do in 3 months and do it and show off to users and get feedback. Then, after that figure out what to do next.

There are common fallacies and pitfalls when someone says they want to do "like X for Y". (Like Uber for shopping etc). Learn about them and make sure your idea isn't suffering from those same issues.
I've already stated it elsewhere in this thread, but there are diplomatic, regulatory, and educational avenues that would probably be more impactful than a few dudes taking it upon themselves.

In my mind, it's not unlike the people who half-block a traffic lane when there's a merge upcoming. In their mind, I'm sure they think they're doing the Lord's work, and it scratches their itch for a sense of justice in an unjust world. In reality, it slows everyone down and makes the system worse. Giving into our human biases for seeking justice can often lead to worse outcomes.

Sure, no argument with this: it would way better to get authorities involved. I agree with your sibling comment that it would be probably fruitful to increase some of the regulations around crypto. In fact that would probably help with a lot of domestic crimes as well...

But just to kind of play devil's advocate; lets suppose we educate people about this stuff, and it's extremely successful, no grandpa is selling his house to buy Google Play cards because we were so good at communication. Wouldn't those same people get beaten (or worse) in the same way that you're suggesting with Kitboga?
>In the US, our nurses buy half million dollar homes

Is that supposed to be outrageous? Given how much rise we've seen in house prices in the past few years I'm not really sure whether that's supposed to mean they're underpaid or overpaid. Why not just say their mean annual pay is $94,480 compared to $65,470 for all occupations[1]?

This is actually an experience that people that engage in the tantric practices in Vajrayana Buddhism -- of which Tibetan Buddhism belongs to -- cultivate. I've encountered the instructions as part of the dream yoga practices, to cultivate it so that you actually watch yourself fall asleep and enter the dream state completely lucidly. I've only ever been able to "catch" the dream and become lucid when already in the dream. Maybe you're way ahead of the rest of us! [1][2]

Nothing about the last several months implies surgical strikes or key infra being targeted, and heavily leans towards glassing the enemy territory.

Well that's going to be very personal preference so not sure if my criteria is useful to anyone else. But for me I must be within ~2hr drive of the ocean, which limits me to coastal areas. And I won't tolerate any below freezing weather nor days above 100F. And I need the area to have sufficient concentration of tech work that changing jobs (for both me & partner) without having to move houses is pretty easy.

It's definitely deliberate clickbait. It was written to imply that it's still a rental. A non-clickbait title could have been "One man's artistic wonderland, created in secret, given protected status."

TBH, they should be clearer that opening the door is ok, but I get why it is somewhat of a challenge. Parts of the update may trigger window recalibration, and that isn't really intended to be done with the door opening or closing at the time.

It's kind of crazy how conspiratorial much of HN is about Elon. Many people simply aren't capable of not letting their valid political differences crossover into their evaluation of his aptitude. You'll have many people around Elon all vouching that he's a smart, technical engineer, but hordes of people on HN who have never met him, let alone spent an hour in a meeting discussing a technical topic, all very sure of themselves that Elon is a midwit who simply orders people around.

From Karpathy: "he understood how it works about as quickly as you'd expect a PhD student to. The fact that he can do this across many technical disciplines is impressive and borderline superhuman. I don't think people understand or would believe how low-level and technical typical meetings with him are."

If the GBA4iOS author is infringing the GPL license by including 3rd-party GPLed code in a not-GPL-compatible codebase, does that make their 1st-party code any less proprietary?

My non-lawyerly interpretation is that both parties seem in the wrong.
This is occasionally a problem that the specific engineer enables. It's normal for an engineer to work directly with product, and if they develop a rapport they'll start side-stepping management with additional requests. Over-eager engineers will then sometimes train PMs that they're a good place to make those requests, even if they're big enough that they should be prioritized in the normal flow.
How would Apple "allow additional restrictions on the GPL"? They're not the copyright holder of all GPL-licensed code!

I suppose they could try to establish something like a "first/original app wins" clause to prevent distribution of builds of paid-but-GPLed iOS apps, but that feels like it would at least clash heavily with the intent of the GPL.
