Try to query it though via document.querySelectorAll('a') for example. It's a good first line of defense as a lot of scraping techniques do this approach.

However, if you have a headless browser setup for scraping, and simply fetch the current URL while on the page[0], you can get the plain text, and do a regex search for email addresses which will get you the email address - albeit this is a strange approach to take I admit.

If that's your paranoia level: How do you know the "offline" tool you're using is not uploading to a server? Possibly inadvertently in the course of bug reports, or surreptitiously while contacting the license server...?

Should security concerns really warrant not trusting the (reputable) vendor that the files are not being uploaded, you would need to do some sort of audit and/or run in an isolated environment and wouldn't be the "random user" referred to in OP.

Ask HN: Founders who offer free/OS and paid SaaS, how do you manage your code?
I am curious as to how do you solve the problem of maintaining different offerings of your product.

1) Do you have two separate codebases for free and paid? Or do you have some sort of standard workflow where you have two different branches?
2) How do you handle updates to your product?
3) How about employee access?

Even if the building owners are bankrupt, don't the administrators have to maximise the sale price in order to pay back creditors?
A key difference between database mapping and interactive AI tools is the position of the user.

Nice list. Now you need a RCE exploit and a chained breakout exploit thought. That's a lot of cash.

Given this and that the process isolation also protects against meltdown/spectre type attacks, I think we can agree that this type of fine-grained sandboxing is a requirement for secure software, no?

However, next to no software is using fine-grained sandboxing. From the top of my head only qmail, djbdns and gatling come to mind, none of them are for end-users.

}
if (!Number.isInteger(n)) {
throw new Error('expected an integer');

throw new Error('value exceeds maximum safe integer');
}
return (n % 2) === 1;
}

if (typeof num === 'number') {
return num - num === 0;

Couldn't have said it better myself.

Your last point also highlights a real issue that affects real humans: just because someone (or something) cannot talk doesn't mean that they are not intelligent. This is a very current subject in disability spaces, as someone could be actually intelligent, but not able to express their thoughts in a manner that is effective in sharing them due to a disability (or even simply language barriers!), and be considered to be unintelligent.

In this way, you could say LLMs are "dumb" (to use the actual definition of the word, ie nonverbal) in some modes like speech, body language or visual art. Some of these modes are fixed in LLMs by using what are basically disability aids, like text to speech or text to image, but the point still stands just the same, and in fact these aids can be and are used by disabled people to achieve the exact same goals.
If anything's the "new IE", it's Chrome! Dominant market position, >50% of people using it, (arguable?) abuse of a platform monopoly (search this time) to drive popularity. It also supports stuff other browsers don't, so we get sites that only work in Chrome - like we used to get sites that only worked in IE. Yes these are "web standards" now but the effect is similar.

You're also robbing yourself of increasing the prices to keep the lights on. Business-wise this is not a very good idea. Also as a customer I have the feeling that this is a stupid idea. If the costs increase, you have to increase prices. If I like something and want to keep using it, that's the only way.
So, instead of giving everyone money that they can spend as they see fit – including on OpenAI if it's useful to them – we give all the money directly to Sam Altman. Excuse my cynicism, but I'm having a hard time coming up with a more charitable interpretation of what's going on here.

Thanks for your answers!

I suggest you to think about the pricing for the monitoring/maintenance plan really good.
99$ for just monitoring and informing the customer sounds fine. For maintenance - 100$ is basically 1 hour of work, so if there's more than one incident per month that takes longer than a hour, you'll lose money.

1.Being a public domain library, likely used in many other proprietary products, I doubt the xz library would have targetted linux systems only. It may have been the first target because Linux provided a very large blast radius but it might just have been the beginning of a broader rootkit.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solomon_Shereshevsky

The wiki page is more interesting:

> Shereshevsky also participated in experiments in which he showed that he had control over his body's involuntary (autonomic) functions. From a resting pulse of 70–72, he was able to increase it up to 100 by and decrease it to a steady 64–66.[5] When asked how he could do this, he replied that he would either "see" himself running after a train that has just begun to pull out or by "seeing" himself lying in bed perfectly still while trying to fall asleep. Shereshevsky was also able to simultaneously raise the temperature of his right hand by 2 degrees while lowering the temperature of his left hand by 1.5 degrees.[6] Once again, he stated that to do this, he simply "saw" a situation in which his right hand was touching a hot stove while his left hand was grasping a cube of ice. Shereshevsky also claimed to have been able to avoid pain by imagining that someone else was experiencing it and watching the other man experience it.[7] As he described, "It doesn't hurt me, you understand, but 'him.' I just don't feel any pain." This, however, was never tested by Luria. Additionally, Shereshevsky claimed to be able to cure himself and others of sickness by imagining that the problem went away. This was dismissed by Luria as "naive magical thinking."[8]

> After he discovered his own abilities, he performed as a mnemonist; but this created confusion in his mind. He went as far as writing things down on paper and burning it, so that he could see the words in cinders, in a desperate attempt to forget them. … Reportedly, in his late years, he realized that he could forget facts with just a conscious desire to remove them from his memory, although Luria did not test this directly.

LLMs do not know math, at all. Not to sound like one myself, but they are stochastic parrots, and they output stuff similar to their training data, but they have no understanding of the meaning of things beyond vector encodings. This is why chatgpt plays chess in hilarious ways also.

An LLM cannot possibly have any concept of even what a proof is, much less whether it is true or not, even if we're not talking about math. The lower training data amount and the fact that math uses tokens that are largely field-specific, as well as the fact that a single-token error is fatal to truth in math means even output that resembles training data is unlikely to be close to factual.
Not really AFAIK, since it's an asymptote regarding your speed vs speed of light, so it's a pretty continuous curve. The point where things become weird is at close to the speed of light so in your example at like 1.9~1.999 m/s, and physics "break" at 2m/s, but there's not a sigle point between 0~1.999 where anything "surprising" happens.

Yes, but it's still a selection bias of commenters in a specific field, who care enough about an old school forum to comment in a community. I can't personally imagine most of my college peers caring enough to post anything longer than a tweet.

Not even because they are dumb nor lack critical thinking. They simply care a lot less about online communities compared to physical relationships, or are focused on their careers, etc. Commenters on any community are subject to the 1% rule; there are a LOT more lurkers than commenters on any given platform.

Absolutely, it's like living in London and eventually having to accept that tourists will always say "Big Ben" when they mean the clock tower of the Palace of Westminster, which encloses the bell whose actual name is Big Ben. The name of the tower is, de facto, Big Ben, and life gets so much easier when you drop the urge to tell people they are wrong all the time...

Edit: TIL the tower was properly renamed "Elizabeth Tower" in 2012 [0] but I seriously doubt a single person in the last 12 years has ever used that name...

To be completely fair, it does a little bit more than that. It only considers finite numbers as 'numbers' (ie NaN and Inf aren't considered numbers). It also considers strings that can be parsed as numbers as numbers. Of course reasonable people could consider both those 'features' as bugs
I used to do this, but I quickly found that it takes too much time (heh) to plan this way.

Trying to estimate how long something will take (usually wrong), constantly having to reschedule and split events, not to mention the hassle of creating events for trivial things because “time is everything”. It’s exhausting and inefficient.

> you have to report mileage for insurance and registration

You don't necessarily have to report mileage for insurance, it only happens for registration when the vehicle changes ownership, and in either case that is the mileage on the vehicle rather than the driver. Someone who drives 100,000 miles a year might very well be doing it in multiple different vehicles.

> Even if you drive 100k miles in 5 years, you should not have 5 accidents that were your fault. That's just insanely unsafe.

It's not a large statistical sample. A large proportion of the people it happens to will be drivers of average skill operating under conditions with above-average risk. Being an unsafe driver isn't the same thing as driving in an area with unsafe intersections.

> The cause isn't determined by luck or number - it's determined by the facts that show you or the other person was at fault (or that nobody was at fault).

Most of these investigations are cursory unless someone dies, and under those conditions they're basically impossible to get right except by chance. One car rear-ended the other, the driver in front says the other one was following too closely, the one in back says the other cut them off and then slammed on the brakes, there were no unbiased witnesses. Whatever goes into that report is going to have the accuracy of a coin flip if the accident isn't one that warrants a thorough investigation -- and even then there may be no way to ever know what really happened.
ORM is not for writing analytics queries. It's for your CRUD operations. Something like Django Admin would be impossible without an ORM. You create tables for your business logic and customer support or whoever can just browse and populate them.

Here in Airstrip One.

The Office of National Statistics (ONS) has changed the way they calculate “excess deaths.

Im not sure what to make of this!

A new way to work out the excess deaths during covid actually reduced the mortality rate.

This means that fewer people died from covid during the covid scamdemic.

Maybe its about paying out less money to those injured by the jab.

The NHS has been putting aside a few billion to pay out to those impacted by adverse effects and deaths from the jab.

Looks dodgy to me.

An aging population that lives longer and longer + shrinking workforce means

- the pension system can't be sustained, but also

- more and more people need support of doctors, nurses, care homes, etc. but can't find it or it becomes more and more expensive (but see problem above regarding their pensions).

> As you read the words in this article, your eyes are rapidly flicking between different letters, as your visual system is making educated guesses about what each of the words says. This means that lteters can appaer out of oredr, but you can still read them with relative ease.

Nitpick: your eyes don't flick "between different letters" but between different words. That's why "lteters can appaer out of oredr". This is what it means to be fluent in reading a language. A learner will still have to go letter-by-letter on most words because they're not yet used to the word "shapes". Once you reach fluency, you stop looking at the individual letters and recognize words based on their shape and position in the text (i.e. you might read things that aren't there but you're accustomed to seeing there if the shape and position is similar).

This is a biased political piece and should probably be locked by moderation.

It is also needlessly inflamatory; the USA is far from the only actor in the world; it even has a secondary influence at best in places like Syria and Ukraine where a ton of refugees have come from.
Doesn't it also mean that any non-trivial migration (e.g. which requires data transformation or which needs to be structured to minimize locking) has to be defined elsewhere, thus leaving you with two different sources for migrations, plus some (ad-hoc) means to coordinate the two?

Like others I've tried this before but it's just too much effort to use this approach as you spend a lot of time rejigging your calendar as it's so granular with the time dimension. Not to mention trying to coordinate it with meetings and your actual schedule.

That said, I do like using a calendar approach for tasks. I've previously used TeuxDeux successfully - it's basically just a todo list per day and it makes it easy to plan things ahead of time and move them around as reality bites and you need to move it to a later date.
