> Despite existing for a little over four months and in that time assigning over 2000 CVEs at a faster rate than any other CNA in existence, the harm it's single-handedly caused to the CVE ecosystem hasn't been fully appreciated yet by the public and is mostly relegated to security teams of downstream distributions, vulnerability management companies, and end-users who noticed recently their previously-informative distribution security advisories got replaced with auto-generated lists of hundreds of CVEs with minimal user-understandable/actionable information.

Good! We have environmental CVSS scores now, use them.
If starting off with Elixir and Postgres from the get-go, all this could have been avoided - including the async pains. Said another way: don’t write you backend in JS and just use Postgres.
When I was in high school, I always had major anxiety issues. I realized later in life that it was my excessive amount of caffeine I was ingesting on a daily basis.

I mostly cut all forms of caffeine completely out of my diet since January. As as long as I get 6 hours of sleep or more, I find that I can focus better, I have energy throughout the whole day, and the sleep I do get feels like I'm more rested.

Even if I got the same hours of sleep every night, I had a hard time getting up in the morning with caffeine in my daily diet.
Not really. The American system of graft is more transparent. If there's a subsidy, there's a record of it. Tax breaks are public, tho there can be creative ways of couching them so they aren't obvious. Military expenditures are (with some very big exceptions) public record. And a US business under most circumstances can say "I'm not selling below cost".

None of this is really true of the Chinese system.

They already do this. COLOR_3DFACE has gotten brighter with each successive version of Windows and in Windows 11 is #F0F0F0. I've had to fix UIs that became unreadable as a result.
I agree. I'm still amazed by the quality and depth of the Brazilian content (I'm Brazilian). The page about Portinari's huge "War and Peace" paintings at the UN headquarters is a striking example.

I hear you. But women can continue the line —society. Men can’t bear children —society dies. Men get sent to war, women stay in the homeland, many of the men may not return and the women may have to persevere, with sacrifice but society can push on. If it were reversed, that society may well collapse.

The Spartans didn’t send their women off and let the men stay back in the homeland.
I recall trying to debug a crash in QNX during the mid-90's. I was impressed by the svelte OS that could load from a 3.5" floppy. The failure scenario was coincident with one of my first tasks as a BIOS engineer and it entailed adding some custom error logging in System Management Mode (SMM). Luckily for me it turned out that I had forgotten to save/restore certain general purpose registers around my SMM logic. Fun times.
SMM is pretty good at 'breaking' operating systems :)
What about the LGPL isn't clear enough to abandon the entire framework?
> Wouldn’t it be simpler and more consistent to have a first parse the IP into an internal format then perform all logic on that?

So not speaking about this library specifically but yes, separating the address parsing part (https://www.netmeister.org/blog/inet_aton.html is a fun read) from the "is this address considered private?" part should make things much simpler.

Vast majority of related code in this space that I've seen works like that. I'm actually struggling to come up with counterexamples.
This sounds like discrimination. Only women can produce offspring? Too bad, so sad. Everyone serves if it is required.
It’s just because the WinUI3 libraries and/or .NET Core runtime take that much. Mostly WinUI3 IIRC.

And that’s when you use “selfcontained mode” rather than AOT publishing, now with AOT it’s considerably better.
There were always O'Reilly books, which is where I tried to learn HTML.
> I don't think this works just because she's masking it. I'm pretty sure it's working because she cast (255 & p[0]) to uint32_t

You're right, masking does nothing to solve the problem, what does it is the cast to uint32_t. Masking only helps if you're working with (signed) char, which is a bit silly.

Your example works without the cast because the example in the article doesn't show the problem. That is, the following code doesn't have undefined behavior:

char b[4] = {0x02,0x03,0x04,0x80};
#define READ32BE(p) p[3] | p[2]<<8 | p[1]<<16 | p[0]<<24
int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { printf("%08x\n", READ32BE(b)); }

Note that b[0] (which is being shifted by 24) is 0x02, so everything works. To show the problem you'd need something like this (b[0] must be >= 128):

char b[4] = {0x82,0x03,0x04,0x80};
> But why even use C++ for the front end if it’s going to be .NET?

Because the author of the article wanted to use C++, I don’t know why. That’s why I called it “masochistic C#”.

I'm pretty curious if you could sketch something up.

Sounds like you might have inadvertently created a wave guide.

If you are feeling adventurous you might want to try dropping your creation into an Antenna Simulation software like NEC or something similar.

The availability of centralized API was not the issue. The issue was that the operators were significantly more efficient when performing the process “by eye” than when supported by some kind of computerized system. For example the on-depot sorting process that we settled on was two-phase: first you sort the parcels either manually by routing codes on the labels or through automated sorting line with the current data and then in second phase the operator scans everything that is supposed to go out of the depot and in that process moves around the ~5% of parcels that got sorted incorrectly, which is incredibly more effective than doing that correctly in one pass.
My friend, my parents live right near where this happened.. I had to go help them many times.

I don't need to see "videos or pictures" I saw it with my own eyes, repeatedly.

I saw first hand the confederate flags, the screamed slurs at passerbys, the aggressive racist-coded chants and associated violent rhetoric..

One night my mom got screamed at by a drunken asshole waving a big confederate flag, she was shaking so badly she didn't sleep that night..

So your hearsay "there wasn't an ounce of racism anywhere in there" can take a hike.
Both of these already exist. Slack just introduced AI and copilot for M365 products has been available for quite a while now. It works great, I use it every day.
Self-contained/single-file mode is compatible with trimming and benefits from the work done to improve AOT story. As AOT binaries get smaller and ILLink's analysis gets smarter, the single-file trimmed binaries will see a part of such improvements.

The issue is that many GUI frameworks are not AOT-incompatible per se but rather trim-incompatible as they rely on reflection that is done in a way that is totally opaque to ILLink save for rooting everything.

You can try the following publish option anyway, and in many instances it "just works" (assuming .NET 8 SDK):

dotnet publish -o out -p:PublishSingleFile=true -p:PublishTrimmed=true

Note: trimming was introduced in .NET 6, and NativeAOT was initially introduced in 7, so it had seen quite a bit of work to mature and improve by the time 8 shipped.
Free of charge to you and free of charge to the sender. Which is exactly my point, for PostNL it is a sunk cost and if that will happen for significant amount of their consignments it would be an issue.
I weirdly remember this being announced when I was an undergrad in 2011, and thinking it would get killed super fast like Wave, which was given to Apache in 2010 - amazing it still exists!
It seems heavy than maintaining something like Reader, but perhaps that's incorrect.
Yes this is already a thing. Copilot for m365 fine tunes on your entire orgs data.

> There are effectively no modern big endian CPUs.

POWER9, Power10 and s390x/Telum/etc. all say hi. The first two in particular have a little endian mode and most Linuces run them little, but they all can run big, and on z/OS, AIX and IBM i, must do so.

I imagine you'll say effectively no one cares about them, but they do exist, are used in shipping systems you can buy today, and are fully supported.
This site is great but am I wrong in thinking the title of this post is editorialized against HN policy?
> The availability of centralized API was not the issue. The issue was that the operators were significantly more efficient when performing the process “by eye” than when supported by some kind of computerized system.

If you think these are different considerations, then you are splitting the wrong hairs. The processes landed on to resolve the conflict are not surprising, but also doesn’t sound like they addressed the underlying architectural conceit.

I don’t know about the Dravidians. But in English (UK/US) “chai tea” does not just mean any tea. It is commonly used to refer to to black tea spiced with specific mix of spices.

It is true that “chai” means tea in many languages, but the meaning in English is more specific. (At least in the usage i have encountered.)
The right move here would be to force banks to accept them and/or as a society pay for a system where they get access to electronic money.

Basically make the effort to move forward, not make the pledge to stay behind forever.
> The world is approaching 1 TW/year of solar deployed (will likely be achieved in the next 18 months at current global solar manufacturing ramp rate)

That's nice, but it's still underachieving compared to the task. We need ~50TW of solar and ~30 TW of wind to be able to smelt iron, make transport fuels and plastics and lubricants as well as electricity. Unless, of course, you want to suppress development in Africa, Asia, and Latin America.
>A common misconception about wings is that they need to have the classic airfoil shape to work. In reality, just about any surface can create lift and function as a wing

Left unsaid is why aircraft wings have airfoil-shaped cross sections with cambered (concave-down) shapes: they produce more lift for a given wing loading and angle of attack.

This is why aircraft have flaps, as well. They increase the camber of the wing so that the pilot can fly slower without pitching the nose up, which is important for example when maintaining sight of the runaway on landing approach.

I think the main issue is that regular post has addrrss info of the recipient. So the whole logistics chain is geared towards that. If you remove the need for address info for a (small) subset, you'd have to have two logistics chains somewhat intertwined with each other...
That particular snippet was posted four times if you ^F.

It's really interesting to see the current "state of the art" in terms of the types of bots that get past the particular CAPTCHA implementation this site uses.

It's a very rudimentary type of CAPTCHA, the kind that anything developed within the past 5 years would probably get past with at least 30% accuracy (logarithmically skyrocketing to >90% within the past ~2 years).

So the post quality is somewhat distributed across a spectrum - on one end, dumb CAPTCHA OCR/processing <=> "slightly better than Markov chain model replication", and at the other end, clearly more sophisticated systems that more easily pass the CAPTCHA and generate more interesting posts.

What's curious is that 90% of the comments are rudimentary. There are very few interesting spam posts. I'm trying to figure out what to make of this.

I'm picturing some majority of utterly outdated spambot infra, still out there, scanning the Web for WordPress/XSS-level stuff, and finding success on blogs like these... and that these old bots are the only systems of their kind out there, because all the spammers collectively gave up with reCAPTCHA and CloudFlare protecting almost all meaningful concerns, with moderation following not too far behind.

Kind of makes sense.

But it's really depressing to compare these old clunky bots that are kind of cute (in a way) to the upgraded versions - the current-era tech, that get past moderation... and effectively pass the Turing test :'(
> Grocery stores until the mid-1900s did not actually sell products to women. Women would pick out and receive products and a bill would be sent to her male supervisor for his approval and payment.

I find this hard to believe, how would that work in large and anonymous cities where nobody knows each other? If a woman went grocery shopping they would send the bill to where exactly, just a random address she gives them? What if she gives them fake address?

I doubt that shops would refuse for example a widow if she had money from military or inheritence, also men were often away and the women did not just starve to death.
I'm not a movie critic, so it's hard not to be vague, I was just reporting on my own take and experience.

For a better arthouse movie, someone in this thread mentioned https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Good_Bye,_Lenin! which was indeed excellent.

For better directing and acting, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Death_of_Stalin used real characters in a real situation, though with a dark-comedic take. Absolutely awesome.
I'm no expert myself but recently had a relative in hospice,[0] which prompted me to look into this issue a bit. There are a few papers (for a recent example, Kingdon et al. (2020))[1] that say that the data is actually extremely low-quality on both sides of the issue. Personally, this makes me wonder if "fluids are bad" might just be received wisdom and/or anecdata... hopefully someone will do a better study(ies) at some point in order to get actually reliable data.

[0] We did end up following the hospice's recommendations not to administer IV fluids, for what it's worth.

Yes: that loop is miserable and we should upgrade it to use size_t (and preferably ++i), at which point the undefined behavior required to make that abomination fast wouldn't matter anymore.
All good points. I submitted this because it at least mentioned some of the issues with attempting to collect taxes on death. The idea of realizing and taxing all gains upon death is quite popular among the terminally online.
Yeah I've been searching for this kind of display technology for the past couple years and concluded I'm using the wrong search terms or it just doesn't exist. Techically possible with oled / microled.
That is your opinion I guess, have a nice day.
> Surprisingly tedious playing the board generated from a word

Agreed. A fun way to play it is 2 player in person. The player tries to guess the word as they go, and the board creator tells them if they got it (so you just try to get the general shape of the word, without actually trying to solve every letter).

I always just write the code with shifts in any program that cares about endianness (e.g. when reading/writing files), except for dealing with internet (which is big-endian) (in which case the functions specifically for dealing with endianness with internet, will be used).

However, in addition to big-endian and small-endian, sometimes PDP-endian is used, such as Hamster archive file, which some of my programs use. (The same way of using shifts can be used, like above.)

MMIX is big-endian, and has MOR and MXOR instructions, either of which can be used to deal with endianness (including PDP-endian; these instructions have other uses too). (However, my opinion is that small-endian is better than big-endian, but any one will work.)

Yeah I switched from old vimrc style to Kickstart, it's been pretty great. The only opinionated bit that I dislike is enabling breakindent.
Yeah that paper does not seem intuitive to me. I'm probably just bitter because I worked so hard to reproduce the original papers results only to realize that it didn't work very well and the author's basically swept that under the rug. I could have saved a month if they had just shared their code and weights. The element example I give is a perfect example of where it seems very unlikely that generating invalid representations would be useful
I'm not ignoring that, I just don't see being homeless and being poor as equivalent. Would you only consider someone poor if they're living in the street?

I actually have no beef with either “money will change hands in the future” or “AGPL because we want to advance FOSS.”

The problem is that AGPL is a total no starter at “day job,” and even at “side gig,” I'm obviously not going to release the source code of the entire service because of a message queue dependency.

I mean, if I was trying to switch clouds for whatever reason, I might want this, and could even be persuaded to pay to self host it.

But at this point there's no pay option. Just source I couldn't possibly use, not even for a month, not even as a trial, company policy or no company policy.

It makes no sense.
Are you just describing property tax as we have it today then? We already pay property taxes as a combination of the estimated raw land value and "improvements" made to the land.

If that's the case I don't really have a problem here, but there's also no debate to since we already impose that tax on land owners.
Idk about cognitive benefits (seems hard enough to measure that it doesn't even matter), but physiological benefits are well-documented.

24 hours post operation is fine. But giving them for weeks after an operation seems unnecessary. I've also heard that oxycontin in the USA is given to pregnant women to deal with pain.
The impetus here is that Adobe had initially promised a free, then low-cost license for Display PostScript --- when that was pulled, Apple had to come up with an alternative --- that and the fact that all the major app vendors announced that they weren't willing to do top--to-bottom re-writes using the NeXT frameworks (there was even a rumor that "Yellow Box" was named for the sake of Bill Gates' comment, "Develop for NeXTstep? I'll piss on it.")

So, Apple, led by Mike Paquette and many other talented folks from NeXT created Quartz (née Display PDF) and Carbon and instead of a consistent environment with a single API, we got an assemblage of technologies which had a Calculator app written in Java which took _forever_ to load, a Finder written in Carbon instead of Workplace.app, and icons cluttering the desktop and a Sidebar instead of a Shelf, and a bunch of Carbon apps.
Very very little at Google survives on autopilot. There’s a constant drumbeat of required changes, whether they be accessibility, regulatory (DMA, hurrah), internally motivated changes (material design++) etc. For anything to survive there must be someone who cares and is willing to invest in it. This is a large part of why stuff gets killed, the default there is for things to die. Yes there are strategy changes too, but very often things die because the person who could champion a thing is no longer there to do so, or has changed roles significantly enough that they can’t plausibly do so anymore.
