I'd go further and state that "ecosystems" are evil as they erode competition. It should be easy to change products independently of each other, e.g. I should be free to choose between Apple iCloud or Google Photos for storing my photo library. Instead I'm forced to experience what you already mentioned: integration preferences on different platforms, network effects and so on.

Only direct product properties should drive users' choices, everything else just raises the market entry barrier for potential competitors.
The problem is that he bought a Hyundai. They are deeply flawed in terms of reliability and safety, and that's how the company saves money. Problem solved.

If it's TCP HTTPS and making established connections then it is not spoofed. Spoofed TCP connections will be SYN packets but a TCP handshake and TLS handshake will not complete. More likely someone abusing a proxy capability of Cloudflare which is why reporting it to them along with logs is very important. They process massive amounts of traffic so logs with accurate timestamps NTP correctly running on the web server are important to find the needle in the haystack.
Does that extra information come from a separate process than the LLM network? If not then, assuming the same output is not guaranteed from the same input as per usual, then all bets are off correct?

Wild. These types of attacks would be mild inconveniences if they had procedures in place for continuity of business.

I am thinking:

- Manual record keeping (ie, physical ledger)

- Procedures to call insurance companies and verify coverage

- Procedures to ask local doctors to phone in (or hand write) prescription requests instead of using e-prescription system

- Credit and debit card information captured at point of sale with offline device. Processed outside of impacted systems or when systems recover
Words and meaning. This talks about how words come to mean something else. Nonplussed was "not knowing what to do". Now it is becoming "unruffled".

But it raises a question. Do words evolve by mistake, or do they evolve because we need to say something and we don't have the right word for it? Unruffled, unaffected, unimpressed - for me all have a sense of ignoring a situation. Nixon was unaffected by student protests. As opposed to "not knowing what to do"

And part of the problem is shades of meaning. Was someone steady in an unexpected situation? Or were they in a quandary and steady. Or were they just steady from stupidity?

And isn't it interesting how words abound for how people react to situations? And do deduce the same meaning as other people? Like the thing about Eskimos have 200 words for snow?

I was unaffected by the gift of an ice cream cone.
I was unimpressed by the ..

Perhaps to fully consider and understand nonplussed we must know what plussed means.

I was plussed?
Or are they wealthy because they don't have kids....

But in general poor people have more kids, and as unpopular it will be to say, they can have more kids because the government subsidizes it. One parent doesn't work and gets all the benefits, so: no daycare costs, free medical care, welfare income, and food stamps/WIC.

Not saying we shouldn't have those things, but when only poor people get the government assistance when it comes to having kids, they'll be the ones who have the most kids.

Working class and above it costs a fortune to raise kids, not so for the non-working class. Now people will probably come say how wrong I am, but I live in a poor area and see this play out on a daily basis.

Ask HN: How to get work as a physical pen tester?
(Throwaway to not associate this with my day job)

By day I'm a senior engineer in the UK. By night I have a hobby, which involves a lot of trespassing. In the UK this isn't illegal as a criminal matter and is just a civil matter. The use of entry tools complicates the legality (hence the throwaway) but that's usual when theft and/or damage is the intent, which is never the case.

Over the years I feel like I've become quite adept at covert entry and enjoy the process of research and final implementation as much as my hobby.

I have a passing interesting in digital security but the physical side is what really gets me going.

I know there's still a lot to learn but I feel I have a very good base set of skills. This led me to wondering if it's possible to turn this into a career. I know physical pen testing jobs exist but don't see them advertised.

Does anyone here work in this area? Have any advice or contacts I could chat to?

> The government is the problem in that situation, as it's responsible for making sure those things don't happen.

The government would certainly be complicit in this scenario, but is the corporation doing the act not still responsible for their actions? The corporation is still the actor that is motivated to do "the bad thing" (ie: cut safety features to save money), and then lobbies the complicit government to turn a blind eye. The phrasing of this seems to imply that corporations can do whatever they want as long as they play by the rules, and then puts the full blame on the government because they either failed to provide a "perfect" ruleset or they were actively complicit in turning a blind eye.

I know technically "doing whatever they want as long as they play by the rules" is in practice just following the letter of the law, but are they not responsible for taking some degree of responsibility beyond that?
The problem is that what is profitable is marking the case as reviewed. What is needed is skin in the game. Misdiagnosis should have financial penalties like speeding tickets otherwise the optimal most capital-effective solution is a rubber stamp.
Hey HN!

About a year ago, I noticed that most precious metals stackers (investors) were using pen and paper or spreadsheets, so I noticed there was an opportunity here and decided to develop an app to replace these old-fashioned methods.
Additionally, I included a variety of analytics and metrics that are impossible to replicate in a spreadsheet.

Now the challenges are to scale up sales and improve SEO.

In addition to using Swift to build the native app, I developed a backend using Java with Spring, along with some scripts written in Python.

>Plus no one will agree on what the limit should be.

We do this with drug reimbursement costs and construction already and I’m pretty sure those for-profit companies would also disagree on what the limit should be. I also don’t think it needs to be a one-size-fits all threshold; it could be adjusted to COL and/or job prospects that are tied to graduate statistics. IMO that goes a long way to aligning the incentives of the student and the institution.

I’m curious if you have an alternative solution

Thanks for the clarification. I was wondering about that driver facing camera. Didn’t know that the 2019 model didn’t have it. Other OEMs use infrared sensors for that. A camera is a bit spooky to me from a privacy standpoint. Nevertheless Teslas newer models should be able to prevent this situation with it.

Not yet. But if someone could condition nuclear fuel atoms so that when they do fission, they consistently break into one delayed neutron precursor and one stable or near stable atom with no long-term afterglow heat, that could revolutionize nuclear power. I've been told that this dream is impossible but it's still my 1 genie wish. Right now they break into 50% of the periodic table and cause all sorts of grief.
Note: I will use the term "soccer" for the most common football of Europe, "Association football", and "football" for American football. And before anyone says that soccer fields should be called "pitches" not "fields" I will note that FIFA's "Laws of the Game" call it "field" 184 times. They only mention "pitch" in the glossary where the heading for "field" is "Field of play (pitch)".

Generally you want to use American football fields for this because American football fields have a standard size, 100 yards x 160 feet (91.44 x 53.3 meters). That size field is used in professional, college, and high school football.

Soccer fields on the other hand not only vary from country to country, they aren't even always all the same size within a league. The English Premier League for example is trying to standardize on 105 x 68 meters but several clubs are not yet there: Brentford (105 x 65), Chelsea (103 x 67), Crystal Palace (100 x 67), Everton (103 x 70), Fullham (100 x 65), Liverpool (101 x 68), and Nottingham Forest (105 x 70).

For international play the standard is a range. 100-110 meters length and 64-70 meters width.

There are parts of soccer fields that are standardized to specific values rather than ranges so would be good for unambiguous length or area comparisons. The amusing thing is that those all have fractional values in metric but integer values in Imperial/US units:

• Radius of circle around center mark: 10 yards.

• Penalty area: 44 x 18 yards.

• Distance from penalty mark to goal: 12 yards.

• Goal area: 20 x 6 yards.

• Distance between goal posts: 8 yards.

• Height of crossbar: 8 feet.

Dokku supports k8s as the "scheduler" (the term is weird...).

You can think of it as a much nicer CLI for k8s in that case. But it scales way down to a single machine deployment that is much simpler.
I think you are misunderstanding. An embedding places a piece of knowledge in N dimensional space. By using vector distance search you are already getting conceptually similar results.
You like to beat this drum, it's not the first time I read it coming from your username but... It's not the reality, while you ignore companies like Ericsson and ASLM providing basic tenets for high-end manufacturing of network equipment and chips. ARM used to be in the EU until Brexit.

No, there are no flashy Amazons, Googles or Apples (or more frivolous and damaging stuff like AirBnbs, Ubers, etc.) from the EU but that doesn't mean it has lost the hardware and software dimension, if you meant "consumer hardware/software" I could give you a little more credit but since you've been beating the same dead horse for a long while on your anti-EU comments in HN it's pretty hard to start any meaningful conversation to understand your point of view.

You don't like the EU, that's ok, just try to bring more meaningful arguments than this childish us-vs-them that seems to crop up from you quite constantly when Europe is talked about around here.
No aux port though, cheappie phone. Also its completely unusable for my purposes due to Apple's poor security record.

I have important secrets.
And this reaction, I think, hint at why this shift has happened: It will often be unclear if someone is unfamiliar with the word, whether it means perplexed or unruffled, because often the same situation would justify either.

You might be perplexed at the reason someone cares about a situation because you yourself is totally unruffled - being both nonplussed and nonplussed about it... At least a couple of the examples they give are ones where either meaning is plausible.

And so if someone is unfamiliar with the word, it'd be easy for them to infer the wrong thing and as a result associate the wrong meaning for the word going forward.

>There is a ton of manipulation on all social media now.

I mean there has been a lot of manipulation on social media for a long, long time its just that it is so wide spread and so obvious now it's not deniable by anyone. Way back off in the early days of Slashdot, long before the sale to Dice, there were topics that were astroturfed and vote manipulated to ensure a consistent message (probably by some nation state, but who knows for sure). Anyone watching back then realized the internet was already going to turn into a cesspit when it came to user contributions. The tech companies turing was always going to happen, there is just too much money involved in rage engagement of users. Baring the over expenditure on twitter, social sites like facebook are still printing money.
We (macro.com) have something similar but without the recipe part in our pdf/word processor. It works pretty well on numbered headings but not so well on non-numbered. We’re thinking of porting over to LLMs at some point.
Save yourself and your readers by not using this "word."
Possible, but I think the more likely explanation is that Firefox users are just higher risk. I don't think the slightly increasesed rare of captchas is going to drive people off of Firefox.
Sweet Flag (Acorus calamus) is a similar aromatic grasslike plant that grows aggressively in ponds. I planted a few thin stalks a couple years ago and now it has outgrown five planters and the rhizomes are 2 inches thick. One other advantage of this plant is that the stalks provide a molting place for dragonflies.

>Misdiagnosis should have financial penalties like speeding tickets

Bad analogy. Speeding tickets carry no penalties to those who issue them wrongly. You can sue and if you win the local government will eventually pay for the damages, meaning the taxpayers, meaning also you. They have no skin in the game.

And there it is. Twitter bad because it doesn't enforce opinions Guardian likes anymore.

> “To some extent that represents a broader sense in the US about free speech that it is an absolute good above all. Whereas elsewhere in Australia and Europe and many other places there’s much more about needing to balance the rights of free speech and the right to freedom from harmful speech. And for many otherwise quite liberal people in the US, that sounds like censorship, essentially.”

Censorship sounds like censorship to people? I'm shocked.

> He says this is a shame, as academic research on Twitter used to enable the platform to identify and clean up pockets of hate speech and misinformation, which will now go even more unchecked.

> “It’s certainly already starting to transform into something that’s more similar to … platforms like Gab or Parler, or even [Trump’s] Truth Social where you’ve got far, far right people furiously agreeing with each other and furiously hating on everyone else.”

And more crying that Twitter doesn't enforce left-wing values anymore.

Not that it enforced rules against hate speech before - people were absolutely racist against whites in the old times, but that's a kosher kind of racism among the left-leaning PMC, so nobody cared. The whole article is just whining that the other side gets a fair hearing now.
I have seen this come from CF in the past to my silly little hobby sites. I just drop the IP or sometimes subnet in a file that on startup effectively does:

ip -6 route add blackhole 2a06:98c0:3600::103

That method is faster processing and lower CPU than using a firewall and prevents a socket from being opened and wasting kernel memory and keeps it out of your firewall state table. For UDP I still use the raw table IPset in IPTables as a blackhole will not stop the traffic from getting to the application in that case, such as DNS servers.

When reporting this to Cloudflare make sure you have NTP set up on your web server so that your access logs can line up with proxy/app logs on their side to make it easier for them to correlate. A couple lines of the traffic from tcpdump using -vv to get packet details may also be useful to them.

tcpdump -p -NNnnvv -s0 -c2 host 2a06:98c0:3600::103
It absolutely could do that, but that would likely transfer legal liability once it deviated from operator inputs. The lawsuits around automatic braking and traction control are still about how the operators commands were interpreted, and they were bad enough. This would be explicitly deviating from operator commands. These are silly problems from an engineering standpoint, but there are other constraints.
> stop in the middle of the road

I hope that means safely pull over to the side of the road and stop.
If Xi decides to "cement his legacy" by trying to annex Taiwan, the consequences of that, together with this demographic bomb, will be absolutely devastating for China.
He certainly could have, but he also might not have. If he was actively driving he may have remained more alert, or he may have chosen to pull over. It's a counterfactual so we don't really know for sure either way.
As an American, that the US (or even the EU, India, or [god-forbid] Russia) is not leading the way here is disappointing
I found a paper which measured the energy of the transition [0], but it doesn't talk about why it's so low. Might be a starting point if you have more time to read than i do, though!

EDIT Hmm [1]:

> Interestingly, the existence of a nuclear excited state of such low energy seems to be a coincidence and there is currently no conclusive theoretical calculation that allows to predict nuclear levels to this precision.

And there is a paper with a ton of detail and some nice diagrams of energy levels [2], but i'm not sure it really gets at "why".

Thank you! I still have three or four chapters to write and then quite a bit of editing to go on the whole. I think a finished e-book is at least two months out, but I'll see what I can do about a preview release.

The main problem is I don't currently have a way to contact folks who are interested! I'll maybe add a mailing list signup form to subscribe for updates. Meanwhile, I am posting updates to my blog (https://dusty.phillips.codes), which has an RSS feed, as well as to LinkedIn (https://www.linkedin.com/in/dusty-phillips/) and Facebook Author page (https://www.facebook.com/dustyphillipsauthor). I think Patreon also has an option to follow me without sponsoring, but I'm not clear on what gets posted to that feed (haven't been too impressed with Patreon, TBH).
>you can get radicalised online

Great. Ted Kaczynski and a host of other malfeasants were radicalized through books and philosophy but we didnt turn public libraries into listening posts or start banning books wholesale. since theres no tangible KPI it can also be argued most netizens do not get radicalized online. the best defense against radicalization is education and open discussion. prevention, instead of detection.

It isn’t just ‘sex work and women’ after all.
> I will use the term "soccer" for the most common football of Europe, "Association football", and "football" for American football.
