I reported a theft of a high value item to the police once. I went to the their office, gave details of what happened, and I never heard back from them. I won't bother making another report.

The NYPD struggles to find subway shooters*, investigating a theft is probably something beyond their abilities.

I've been using, passingly, ntfy.sh, can you compare PushBeacon to ntfy?

I like the idea of a pay once, PushBeacon does definitely have attractive pricing. Though, my usage of ntfy.sh is so minimal that I easily fit into their free tier (so far I've not gotten above a couple notifications a month). Their API is also super duper easy.
Whenever possible, yes, but AIUI it's not always possible; the one use case for which I believe full-on forwarding is required is using your personal credentials to transfer data between two remote servers (ex. rsync directly between servers). If there's a way to do that I would actually much appreciate somebody telling me, but I have looked and not found a way.

I am a versatile engineer with ten years of experience working in a corporation, academia, and start-ups. My last engagement was as a data engineer for a seed funded company that applied AI and machine learning to healthcare authorization, and I am now most interested in another role in an early stage company, an engagement focused on a particular project, or another unique opportunity. Outside software engineering, I am into permaculture gardening and plants, used to spend a lot of time outdoors, and I recently became a parent.

After surviving multiple rounds of layoffs, I decided to quit and not wait for the final big one. (happened months later)

That was ~8 months ago. I’ve done ZERO leetcode practice as I’ve been too busy shipping for my users and customers.

Here is what has been keeping me busy.

https://randomdailyart.com

Shipped a Next.js/React app for artists to maintain artist profiles and submit art to the newsletter. Using MySQL, Prima, TypeScript, Tailwind, and React. Sent my 2,500,000th email/piece of art.

Onboarded 100+ artists. Landed one big sponsor (name you’ve probably heard of)

https://randomdailyart.ai (Launching soon)

Building the AI version of the newsletter. Using Go Hugo, tailwind, lots of cool vanilla JavaScript animations, tailwind.css.

https://unfuck.email

My most ambitious project yet—a tool to fix inboxes for Gmail and Fastmail users.
It's a work in progress, and I ship daily. Using vanilla class-based TypeScript, some React, tailwind.css.

About me: Mostly a sysadmin dude, used to work with on-site server farms and weird environments like 30k+ POS machines or gaming cabinets, recently thrown into cloud world which is okay, but I don't mind going back to work with metal. Currently my contract got to an end, so I'm available ASAP.
The issue is that Rabbit's founders marketed the R1 device as having abilities that surpass that of your smartphone. They sold the device as if it itself actually does something useful that your existing devices can't.

But now we can see that it is just a weird shaped Android phone hard-coded to only run one app. It shatters the illusion that the R1 hardware was worth the $200 price tag, as the software under-the-hood could be equally if not more functional if it were just distributed as an app instead of as a piece of hardware.

It would be different if the hardware had special sensors and processors that help maximize its functionality. There would be no issue for AOSP to be the base OS - in fact I would agree with your assessment that it was a good decision that should e celebrated. The hardware itself having novel capabilities would be the important aspect, not the OS they chose to build upon.

Absent any special hardware functionality, it throws the entire Rabbit business model into question. They aren't charging licensing fees, and the service itself seems to be a lifetime subscription, so they aren't planning on making money selling software or SaaS services. The profit-making part of this business is selling hardware - and the hardware is just a worse version of the phone you already have...

The software also seems barely useful. Pretty much just a bare-bones implementation of speech-to-text, GPT via REST API, and text-to-speech, with a handful of basic integrations.

So once they've sold you the hardware, do they have any reason at all to improve the software or the service's offerings? If the R1 hardware can't do anything your phone can't, can they really compete with an app (even a paid app) that does the same thing on your almost certainly higher-spec'd smartphone?

Given the founders' history of grifting, I am going to guess that the R1 hardware costs Rabbit <$50, and that the company will soon disappear, taking down any expensive cloud-based AI functionality with them, as soon as they feel they've sold enough units to line their pockets with the profits, and the R1 owners will be left with a brick.
That's precisely what I was thinking when I was reading this. The go module transition was not awesome, but if the result is being able to "step" the standard library forward like this without a corresponding major language release, then I take back all the bad things I ever said about it.
"Denial of Wallet" has been used in countless articles (incl. academic) and places to refer to attacks that increase usage bills.
Also, the cost of doing this per request is insane compared to either absorbing or rate-limiting the bandwith the requests take.

Cloud computing charges you by the request/byte/cpu cycle. Servers do not have this issue.

Also, is it simply not possible to rate limit this on a per IP basis? Make client only able to do X requests per second from each unique IP/network flow.
Yeah but in all those cases, it's clear from the context that they are distinct from coffee, snakes, and oxidation.
I understand that you like some Rust features like Result and Option types, enums, and pattern matching.

These features provide for more safety, and at the same time, they reduce productivity by forcing the developer to statically type everything.

The question is then why do we need to transpile to Go, a language with GC and slower than Rust?

If we already agree on super-safe static typing, why not just use Rust? Are there any libraries in Go that are not available or of worse quality in Rust?

Me in 2016: Elon Musk is real life Tony Stark! :-D

2019: Buys a Model 3 Performance I love this car, though I wish Elon Musk would stop over-promising on FSD. I hope one day to get a Roadster 2.0!

2021: Elon is becoming a bit of a nut job, but his large presence in the news is good for Tesla sales.

2024: The absolute best thing Tesla could possibly do for the survival of the brand is to get rid of Elon Musk. His hard right-wing shift has destroyed left-wing environmentalist desires to get a Tesla, and if Tesla dies, the entire market takes it as a signal that EVs are not viable in the market. His claims on FSD "coming soon" are no longer forgivable and are just outright lies. No longer interested in the Roadster 2.0, hoping someone else can make an EV convertible that'll do 0-60 in under 2.2s and have a $200K or less price tag.
Hm. Maybe so, interesting thought.
> Are you confused?

> > > There’s no state referendums in Texas.

There are. We call them propositions, and we have some in every statewide election.

> Only local initiatives can be done by voters in Texas.

What you mean is that statewide propositions are put on the ballot by the legislature, not by petitions. But your statement that I was responding to said nothing of the sort, only that there's no state referendums in Texas.
To your 3rd point, most diffusion models already use a transformer-based architecture (U-Net with self attention and cross attention, Vision Transformer, Diffusion Transformer, etc.).

Microsoft is much more than Windows though. Active Directory is still a terribly insecure mess that forms the backbones of most major companies. Beyond that, all of Windows still runs on unsalted NTLM hashes. NetNTLM and NetNTLMv2 are more secure salted hash types, but both use the original unsalted NTLM hash to form the NetNTLM/v2 hashes. That allows attackers to simply pass-the-hash to authenticate as domain/local Windows accounts without ever having to know the password.

I mean this very sincerely: The day Microsoft's products are actually secure is the day I'm out of a job.

Redundancy is handled at a higher layer. They are probably using ceph on top.
To expand on your point: Queueing theory applies whether the thing is a proper FIFO queue, a LIFO stack, a statically prioritized priority queue, a dynamically prioritized priority queue, or a bunch of cards grabbed randomly out of a hat. If things keep coming in faster than they can be handled, the queue, no matter its form, will just continue to grow. That a backlog is not a proper FIFO queue in most orgs doesn't change this fact.
I believe everyone started charging as the most popular streaming service in town.

You can't really go higher because people will switch to the competitor. You can't really go lower because you're probably already losing money (mostly to various licensing deals).

It's like all apps on the app store end up being 2.99 and 4.99 because of the price race to the bottom. Everyone waits for someone to blink first and raise their prices.

The issue with RSS is it is tied to the "long form" blog model* where a post requires a subject line. Most RSS readers do not do a great job displaying posts with no title. They also don't typically do anything with inline hash tags (inside the body content). With Facebook/Twitter/Etc (short form content) there's a very informal text box. Hash tags get processed inline with the body. It makes posting something incredibly low friction. A blog post that will actually show up correctly in an RSS reader has much higher friction. Boosting a blog post (reTweet or equivalent) is also high friction.

Blogging never went away and blog hosts exist but "Social Media" style short form content exploded because it's low formality and low friction. Other features like direct messaging or posting picture and video are done online in the apps.

A lot of early effort with that sort of stuff on blogs died early because it requires not just support in the blogging engine, but moderation/administration done by the owner of the blog and support inside the RSS software.

* long form might only be a sentence
Stats I’m seeing put it north of a quarter of households with video doorbells, and rising. Not literally everyone, but a whole lot. I’d say more than half the houses in my middle-class suburban non-tech-hub-city neighborhood have one, and this isn’t some early-adopter gadget nerd crowd.

(for the record, we don’t have one)
I used to create my invoices with Excel. What does this provide that I could not do with Excel? I think the big value add would be tying it with accounting software but this has no such component?
Exactly. That is just a different wording of what, in the very post of mine you replied to, I said would be reasonable.

But that isn't all that the (now flagged and hidden so I can't evidence this) post I was replying to said more, and a small essay elsewhere in the thread (also flagged and hidden) said more again (or repeated the same things in more ways, to be less generous).
> Attacks like these will spur proactive security measures at many companies, for example increasing employee training, upgrading email security to an E5 level, adopting the use of audit logs and increasing the use of encryption during file transfers, Stella said. E5 is considered the premium tier for Microsoft 365 customers, offering enhanced security and other services, he said.

What incentive does Microsoft have to change when the customer response to security breaches is to buy more expensive licenses from them? There's not much leverage in criticizing Microsoft, as is hinted in the article: the leverage is in criticizing orgs that continue to give MS more money.
Honestly the only thing that you need is -a (and only if you made the bad choice to do agent forwarding by default). Sending your pubkey (and a signature, because the server pretends to accept your pubkey for some reason?) isn't a security risk and you're (in theory) going to be providing much more identifying information in the form of your CC...

(And as the siblings mentioned this won't work to prevent your key from being sent if you're using an agent)

I miss Tello, thought. The Sprint network used to be the strongest and most reliable in our area, but after they got bought and shut down we had to switch away.
Sure, but that doesn’t seem very relevant to this thread. Also in express there are certainly ways to do what you say, for instance you could make a middleware like the following:

app.use(async (req, res, next) => {
console.log("Request is going down", req.body)
await next()
console.log("Response is coming up", res.data)
res.send(res.data)
})

app.get("/", function (req, res) {
res.data = { content: "Hello World" }
})
Should definitely use a try 1st one free without login demo (maybe with a strong captcha if missuse costs are an issue)
Mac OS X’s Terminal.app used to be black-on-white by default, wouldn’t be surprised if that’s still the case.

Sure, that's true. The thing is: this was the same requested (and cancelled) range on the same file(s), over and over (it was a bug). Looking at this from the outside, even some internal S3 caching should have had many cache hits and not have to re-download the requested ranges internally all the time (there were dozens of identical requests per second, immediately being cancelled).

On top of this, S3 already bills (separately) for any request against a bucket (see the other current issue with the invalid PUT requests against a secured bucket, which still got billed to the bucket owner; https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40203126). So I'd say both the requests and the cancellations were already paid for; the surprise was the 'egress' cost on top, of data that was not actually leaving the AWS network.

Still, you are right that this still consumes some additional AWS resources, and it is probably a non-trivial issue to fix in the 'billing system'.
> No one treats them as estimates but as actual calendar times.

its true, though i suspect this is partially because its what the management chain wants: a date to report when it will be done (e.g will my okr for this quarter be met or not?)

> estimates are the root cause of quality problems and expectation mismatches

i have seen this over and over, most quality issues and incidents are caused by decent programmers rushing to meet the immovable deploy/release window... because 'your not gonna make your estimate'....
Make sure you don't have one resume. If you are applying to a backend Java application, make sure that the first skills in your list are applicable for back end Java and expand on relevant projects. Likewise, if you're applying to a front end JavaScript position, then have that be the thing you lead with.

On the other side of the table, here's an applicant showing JavaScript things for a backend Java position... and a bunch more that have Java first. The JavaScript focused resume isn't likely to get a second look.

Make sure that your resume reflects the position that you are applying for.

Ask HN: SIM swap attack on a friend's grandmother. Is this common?
My friend's grandmother suffered a SIM swapping attack on her Verizon phone very recently. Her phone was apparently hijacked by unknown attackers (probably overseas), and used to pass 2FA steps.

I've heard of this happening at T-Mobile recently, how common are these attacks becoming? Has anyone else seen or suffered one?
Were you attacked based on your ethnicity?

this can be explained that this may be not egress out of AWS, but egress out of S3 system itself.

S3 is a block storage, so retrieving an object for such a high availability and high perf service means it tries to pull some X block of data and cache it before sending through the socket.

That X block of data is out of internal S3 storage, just not sent through the bigger Internet egress subsystem.

So technically aws may argue this is egress for s3, just not for aws

Analog video resolution is only measured vertically, as lines.
