Thomas is indeed a beast - he was considered one of the smartest profs in the department when I was doing my PhD at Caltech. Just FYI, he left Caltech and moved to Israel a few years ago.
They’re the ones who have been stoking it for decades. Stealing trade secrets, forcing Chinese ownership of operations on companies to continue operating in China or they’d be forced to sell/shutdown and a host of other documented economic policies that are far more damaging than this to foreign companies in China.

Honestly it’s shocking the US looked the other way for so long
Nice try, but politics can be just put aside. Today you ignore politics, tomorrow it's banging at your door with an automatic rifle. The matters of national security have always been more important than economic freedom, everywhere in the world.

Chinese authoritarian government doesn't allow American companies to freely operate in China, but they want freedom for the Chinese companies in the West? That's a little hypocritical, don't you think?
Meta data, like all US customer data, is available to whoever pays for it. I just can't understand this distinction.

Neither am I cheering for it. Don't put words in my mouth.

I am seriously asking whether being flat-out unconstitutional is worse than building a (legislated and approved) backdoor around the constitution, yes.

I mean, better than both would be to just follow the constitution, but that wasn't the question.
This is not complicated: If you run a telegraph wire between El Paso and Juárez, the executive has the Constitutional authority to tap it to intercept communication to or from a non-citizen not in the United States, warrant-free.

Congress can regulate the process that must be followed, the documentation that must be made, even require judicial review at the program level to ensure it doesn’t also record traffic that is Constitutionally protected. That’s what FISA is.

But it can’t ban that tapping, nor can it require the executive to get a warrant for a particular otherwise Constitutional intercept from an Article 3 court.

Which part of this do you think is incorrect?
They got what they deserved for fragmenting the entire market, and then increasing prices to oblivion. I don't have any paid streaming service anymore, no thank you. Actually insane to think that free streaming services provide a better service than paid streaming services nowadays.

This is the same guy who went viral criticizing MKBHD last week right? Here is a good information on what is happening: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40060554 from that discussion.

There is incentive to take a public view that is anti current (or trend or popular or right) thing to do that makes you go viral.
We also had drug trafficking when the US constitution was originally written[0], and the founders of the US still gave us a constitutional right to warrants for searches relating to it. I don't understand why sealed warrants aren't "good enough" for this purpose, perhaps you could open my mind a bit. Why do we need "warrantless" surveillance for drug trafficking now? Specifically, what's wrong with getting a sealed (secret for a period of time) warrant for surveillance from a normal court?

Hopefully, enabling that sort of sideloading as a possibility is the end-goal. Like you said, the market impact is obvious; it gives Apple complete and irrefutable control over what kind of competition can exist on their platform. Apple's game-plan seems to be deliberately ruining the iOS experience until regulators give up.

There has been nothing more sad (or less unexpected) than Apple's tragic fall from grace. Maybe they were rotten from the start, but it feels like this squandered golden age of mobile computing is what they'll be remembered for. 15 long years of spooling up the money printers and praying nobody gets loud enough for the regulators to hear. What a sad waste of all our lives.
What you have to understand about B.C. is that the winning political party has to appease the voters in a few concentrated ridings where a large number of people earn a living in the personal transportation business, driving taxis and Ubers. This block of voters kept ride sharing services out for 10 years; I am not surprised at all that driverless cars have been banned - purportedly for safety reasons - because driverless cars will eventually eliminate the jobs of thousands of drivers.

It’s also an election year here, so we all expect some crazy announcements to appease various groups before Election Day. After that, anything goes, depending on who wins.

Mostly true, but taking ECG LVH more seriously helps the patient understand how important it is for them to improve their general heart health. It also makes LVH regression (which is possible in more cases than doctors believe) a therapeutic target.
I remember the Nord Stream saga, where the US (or, at least a few senators) threatened to sanction a harbor if it would not cease to provide support for pipelayer ships [1].

I mean, in hindsight the US were completely right in their position towards NS, but it's a prime example of the US being not afraid to go even against allied countries.

I find you can get a good idea of what's going on from reading between the lines of Wyden's statements. As a member of the intelligence committee he cannot directly disclose the operational details, but you can look at where he's concerned.

From the CNN article on this:

>> Another amendment at issue was from Democratic Sen. Ron Wyden of Oregon, a member of the Intelligence Committee. His amendment, which was co-sponsored by several of the most liberal Democrats and conservative Republicans in the chamber, would strike a new part of the program that he argued would lead every day Americans into helping the government spy if they have “access to equipment that is being or may be used to transmit or store wire or electronic communications.”

On the face of it, any cellphone or smartwatch seems to fit that definition. They could be converting everything into a listening device, recording all of it, and then making it available to intel officers only when they query for it and can argue one party is a foreign national.

That's great for key=value data, but more complex data structures don't work so well in that format, JSON does. "Why would you need to represent data as a complex data structure?" Sometimes attributes are owned by a specific entity, and that entity might own multiple attributes. It might even own other sub-entities. JSON represents that. Key=value does not.
I work on L3 technology but my opinion is of my own and not my employers. It’s laughable how people think FSD is better than L3 as of today. If it is, then why doesn’t Tesla sell it as one? The big difference is liability, can you play on your phone legally and safely while the car drives itself when autonomy is engaged? If so, it’s L3. If not, it’s L2.

Agreed, accessing app data is the main reason I still root my Android devices today.

Fun fact: whenever you download an image from the official Twitter android app, it saves a copy of that image to the app's data (not cache) and just leaves it there, forever. Since I have root, it doesn't really matter since I can literally just load up a file manager and delete the files as I would on a PC. But without root, there's nothing you can do about it other than wipe the app data completely every once in a while. Thankfully you don't lose much when doing this for this app, but this is far from the only app that has this sort of issue.
We have a government and police force to handle anything that goes on, on facebook.

China also doesn't own a 20% share of facebook.

But even if you think there are issues with facebook, that is no excuse to ignore tiktok. 1 less threat is still good.

Also:

Bytedance has even admitted to spying on journalists.

A fact which they previously lied about:

'ByteDance and TikTok had initially issued categorical denials of the allegations when they were first reported. The company claimed it “could not monitor US users in the way the article suggested”, and added that TikTok had never been used to “target” any “members of the US government, activists, public figures or journalists”. Those claims are now acknowledged to be false.'

They already spied on US journalists, lied about it, and now you are claiming that things are all fine? Yeah no. Thats a threat that needs to be permanently eliminated.
Correct - it has gained WebGPU support, via a third party company.

Given how fp sensors are capacitive, this should totally be doable. Several phones (including my pixel 5) allow using rear fp sensors for opening/closing the notification shade.

Aah.. I miss that on my framework laptop. I had it on my old HP ProBook in the Synaptics settings. Chiral and (1 finger) edge scrolling were amazing. I'd suggest using ZMK/QMK and a touchpad from mouser if anyone wants to DIY one today.

Mercedes stands behind thir L3 and takes the responsibility for it taking the liability away from the driver.

Tesla can not do this no matter what they claim they can do. When their system fails is fails spectacularly and no company in their right mind would want to be liable for that.

It doesn't matter what Tesla can do in 80% of the time when it can't do it 20% of the time.
Or don't upgrade unecessarily and still have backdoors :P

It is not only. Tesla is unable to provide same guarantees or does not trust FSD.

I would guess the reason for not wanting to assume liability is not their update cadence, but the same reason that made Mobileye fire them as a customer.
Is it a security concern compared to everything else we get from China, or are we just holding TikTok specifically to an unattainably high standard? We get so many products from China that could potentially be used for spying that we've never tried to ban due to security concerns. Who can say the ESP32 Wifi module doesn't have a hardware or software backdoor hidden in it?

AFAIK, there has never been any evidence or reason to suspect TikTok of sharing private data from Americans with the Chinese government. It seems like simply being from China is the crime the US government wants to ban TikTok for.

Hahah he's like "YC is a big scam" but when you keep scrolling...

> I charge you a one-time payment of $375, and you get access to my community

It basically invalidates the entire post. Maybe some good points were made about investing in general but they should be delivered by someone who doesn't run an Andrew Tate style self-help scheme, and shouldn't be advertised in the very post criticizing YC of being inauthentic.

YC is infinitely more prestigious and well-connected than this guy's $375 program - and how dare he talk about YC coming after my "personal economy" when he's charging $375 for "access to a community". Last I checked HN is free and I bet there's a lot more valuable info here than that self-help nightmare forum.

Furthermore, we know YC is exclusive. But the fact that YC is so Ivy League and startup focused is also why HN is not just a random subreddit, or some Twitter hatefluencer pyramid scheme.
Holy cow. If these folks can't contact someone, then I wonder who can?

There are few people I think are as consistently wrong as Daniel Vassallo. His writings on cloud are an exercise in fanaticism, and it looks like he’s turned that failed venture into yet another course.

People selling you courses and community are mostly grifters.

The content here has nothing to do with YC in particular, and makes a few interesting claims:

1. YC founders are all young, impressionable 20yos

2. YC encourages you to make up problems to solve

3. That an exit less than a billion dollars is a failure

All of which are easily dismissed by watching actual content from YC.

4. That a 1.25% chance of creating a company worth more than a billion is a bad outcome

Honestly what an opportunity!

Consistently running down stationary children in the middle of a empty, well-lit road is not exactly what I am looking for in a autonomous vehicle. In my mind that qualifies as somewhere between criminal negligence and depraved indifference to human life.

It does, however, remain to be seen how the Mercedes system fares in its operating domain, so it is prudent to reserve positive judgement until more evidence emerges.

> Go can serve about 500M users per month on Xeon E3 v2 CPUs.
> Why, except for HA do you need more?

Because not everything is a simple CRUD website. The last place I worked had a website that appeared to only be moderately more complex than such a site, and had well under 500M users per month. But parts of the application involved complicated processing of many dozens of TBs per day of newly collected data to optimize the content being served (some stream processing, some batch). We had multiple clusters of 1,000+ machines coming and going for an hour or two at a time (often overlapping).
Sports has become very annoying to follow because the leagues themselves have segmented their own games across so many networks, which are on different streaming platforms.

The US politician who comes up with a single-payer scheme for a government-run streaming platform that consolidates feeds from content providers will get my vote. It's about time the US had its own ITV. It's getting a little ridiculous how costly all of this has become.

And it would be apt to get single-payer streaming before single-payer healthcare, because that's about how backwards things are in this country.
TPP was a strategy to counter China's growing influence, it wouldn't have benefited them.
Not streaming related but I do the same thing with Amazon Prime.

Amazon already offers free shipping over $35 and those items almost always arrive within 2 days for me without Prime.

Then every few months, during checkout, Amazon offers me "free trial for 1 month Prime". I subscribe, place my order, wait for it to ship and either instantly cancel the Prime so it doesn't renew or cancel it couple days before it's about to be renewed. After this, for a few months, amazon offers "try Prime for 99 cents first month" and then few months later, they start offering "free trial for 1 month Prime" once again.

Hmm, I think this criticism maybe has a kernel of truth, but

- I think the "ergodicity" concept is kind of being abused. As I understand the term, ergodicity describes systems whose dynamics cause them to eventually visit all states in a way that lines up with some probability distribution. In MCMC one uses this to argue that a chain that runs long enough can be used to generate samples from a distribution.

- But the response to his actual concern I think should be something more like income pooling. E.g. my understanding was there was some movement towards this for minor league baseball players, who have a modest chance of really large incomes. I think poker players also make similar arrangements. But critically, pools make sense when all the participants in each pool have pretty equivalent odds of making getting a large payout. With very early founders of course smart, reasonable people could have wildly different ideas of who is in equivalent tiers.

- You could try to ask a bunch of informed investors to rate or rank, and hope that average estimates are good -- but if those investors don't also have the opportunity to invest in a way commensurate with their ratings, they have no incentive to be accurate.

Honestly, I think not getting a college degree is extremely short sighted. When you want to move into management and don’t have a Bachelor’s and can’t go get a Master’s, and coding loses all the fanfare, it’s going to be difficult to compete with people who have college degrees for a job.

I think bootcamps make sense for someone who got a degree that like anthropology that has high unemployment rates and low starting salaries and wants to move into the coding field, but not a good alternative to a bachelors degree as they are so expensive and won’t offer much value after the first job.

I know someone that worked their way up in a company and the company was sold and it was very difficult to get a similar job, because many places wouldn’t hire them for a similar position without a bachelor’s degree.
