Yeah. I have no idea how Telegram got this reputation for privacy.

I'd like to point out WhatsApp chats are also end-to-end encrypted, just like in Signal. People aren't wrong to distrust Meta but I'd like to point out that WhatsApp encryption often makes judges here seethe to the point they order nation wide blocks of WhatsApp out of spite. The fact everyone I know uses something this secure makes me very happy. It's not perfect but since network effects makes alternatives unusable I'll take what I can get.
Perhaps there are more lucrative applications where LLMs can be applied
Nope, you made a strawman while claiming not to be. PES and distributed battery V2G also exist.
I’m surprised that the TikTok editor can’t already do this.
This is exactly my experience as well. I have never actually used telegram as I was early a signal user and never needed it but my ex used it. All she ever used it for was conspiracy garbage she would follow. Anti covid vaccine doctors and groups mainly. The amount of misinformation she tried to show me and every time I would show her how it was fake she still would not believe me. Then she was even scammed out of $10k from telegram when she fell for a romance crypto scam. The conspiracy stuff is a main reason we broke up it was every single one from flat earth to fake moon landing to all the covid world economic forum world take over and on and on. Most of these came from telegram.
I meant it more "if anyone's green, then it's Python, not Ruby". I still associate Python with green because of the typical cartoon color of snakes + Django
It could be worth a try to extract the keys of one server with a liquid nitrogen can and a cold boot attack. Or something more advanced that isn’t documented on Wikipedia.
This article makes me think of the skill tree or roadmap posts we’ve seen here on HN or Reddit over the years. For example https://roadmap.sh/frontend …

I feel like we could do a better job of providing ourselves fundamental tools like this in helping ourselves and others learn. Not just in tech, but in life overall. The “dev” tree above is embedded in the life skill tree that should start in elementary school.

Haha, even the life skill tree has “fictional” branches that intercept the game world skill tree … you really do have to learn all of the dependencies necessary to case 5th level fireballs … there are real rules to be learned in the games their usefulness is just siloed into the fictional realm.

Edit: I forgot to point out that roadmap is open source here: https://github.com/kamranahmedse/developer-roadmap
Aren’t you advocating for a Big Brother-style system?
Meta seems to shy away from saying they don't look at the content in some fashion. Eg they might scan it with some filters, they just don't send plaintext around.
> This is effectively plaintext

Everything's effectively plaintext then.

Plaintext: refers to data that is transmitted or stored unencrypted. None of which Telegram does.
So from 10-13 down to 7-9? Nice.

Will be neat to see if the kids were still carriers, but managed to keep the viral loads down such that they weren't "sick" during that time. I recall a study a few years back that said kids at that age were basically always sick, just not often symptomatic.
Probably government portals that Meta provides
It does feel like Apple innovation is either stagnating or small, incremental gains. Certainly not huge leaps like iPhone or Apple Watch. Vision Pro hadn’t really taken off yet.
And non E2E chats by default is an intentional design desision.
Pavel previously gave comments about these tradeoffs:
In some sense it is better design than Whatsapp's e2e by default BUT 99%+ users have an automated backup to an un-e2encrypted storage such as Google Drive.
To clarify:

According to the TF1 link, the charges being brought against him are

1. No moderation and refusal to cooperate with government forces on a bunch of cases (what you are describing)

2. Tools allegedly catering to criminality (burner phone numbers, cryptocurrency transactions...)

Note that for now, no judgement has taken place yet. So none of this has been determined by the judicial system to be illegal.
Are there any more detailed technical reports about the current starliner problems out there yet? All I can find are a few paragraphs in press releases. Maybe we just have to wait.
I think we need a constitutional right to immoral speech. This madness and the mob that supports it has to stop
> It is a different list. E.g., the CP in my 11 Pro

Sorry, it probably wasn't clear - not everything in the All Tasks view is necessarily exposed in other views of the Control Panel. That doesn't imply it's something completely independent of Control Panel though, it means you can't get to all views of Control Panel by clicking from the main view. I.e. it's not that this doesn't list more things than the main Control Panel view will, it's that it's part of Control Panel which would also be removed if Control Panel is ever "actually" removed fully instead of just having the main shortcuts to it removed. You're actually pretty close with:

> a hack for the search feature

As the Control Panel search will indeed filter via this view since it has everything.
I wasn't aware a script existed! I've been waiting for years to see the movie, being a huge Primer fan, though I understand it probably won't get made.

This Signal you trust? https://kitklarenberg.substack.com/p/signal-facing-collapse-...

Anyway, while it's possible to activate a Telegram account without a physical phone (using some temporary number services) or using an (relatively) anonymous SIM card 99% of users use it via Android or iOS and that's means there is no need to grab data from Telegram, USA gov. as well as Apple or Alphabet could simply milk them from their OSes, virtual keyboards and so on.

It's really cloying how many do focus on the service instead of weighting the ecosystem...
Ah yeah I understand, it's just that without 6DOF tracking and tracked controllers it's not much more useful than a Google Cardboard.

I would really love to see an open sourced Quest 1 <3 That would be really something new to play with.
Fair enough, a healthy dose of scepticism can't hurt ;)
1. Of the many problems, one critical issue with using this for anything other than security research, is accurate mapping in urban dense areas. Essentially, you are constructing a map of Wi-Fi->Lat/Long or BLE -> Lat/Long.

I believe google's solution to this is 3D modeling of buildings[1] based on research from people like Paul Groves[2].

2. I think the other issue, not with wardriving but with use of such open source infrastructure in general, is launching products that could rely on this mapping. It requires a lot of money and is a bit of a chicken & egg problem. It's also a privacy concern to collect all that Wifi/BLE data for any commercial use.

3. I was also saddened to know about Mozilla MLS shutting down due to f**ng patent trolls[3] that mean that until such competition sucking scum is taken down these technologies will remain boxed to hobby land, small scale diy-ism and security research.

Texas has been adding metric craptons of solar because it's cheaper to deploy than nuclear. The market forces are already on the side of renewables in most advanced economies. PES and neighborhood/distributed battery including V2G are ways out, and hopefully NMC battery technology will gradually be replaced with something safer. At this point, ostensible talk about nuclear that's not going to happen is crypto-techno-religious political virtue-signaling.
High values can exist on different dimensions.

The CEO is worth more in some ways than the HR lady.

The HR lady is worth much, much more than the CEO in other ways.

This added dimension turns the 1D list into a 2D map, or a graph.
It's interesting that he chose to fly to France knowing fully well that he will be arrested. It is also not surprising, because he has French citizenship and France does not extradite its citizens. Looks like a tactical move on his part when his legal team told him he ran out of options and he much preferred to spend time in a French prison than in a Federal prison in the US.
However I think it is important for children to get sick. Humans need pathogens to train their immune system.
Dotcom got extradited (which was declared legal much later). Durov landed in a country that had an arrest warrant out for him.

I hope his situation isn't similar to Dotcom's, as Dotcom was shown to be complicit in the crimes he was being persecuted for. Convicting the megaupload people would've been a LOT harder if they hadn't been uploading and curating illegal content on their platform themselves.

As a service provider, you're not responsible for what your users post as long as you take appropriate action after being informed of illegal content. That's where they're trying to get Telegram, because Telegram is known to ignore law enforcement as much as possible (to the point of doing so illegally and getting fined for it).
>> having your computers spuriously seized for a police investigation is a risk shared by every computer user

Not where i live. We have layers of rules specifically designed to prevent random actions by police.
If someone says I need a cab for after I rob a bank and you give them a ride after waiting then you’re almost certainly an accessory. If they flag a random cab off the street then not.

> He is also fully accountable to Apple

What does this even mean???

He is partially accountable to Apple - he's agreed to a TOS and EULA, as well as conditions for furnishing his Apps. Even with Apple's authoritarian control of their ecosystem though, he isn't fully accountable to Apple. Apple is not a nation or a court that can make decisions like that on their behalf; they have been sued several times for taking punitive action that is illegal obstruction.

Nobody is "fully accountable" to Apple. Apple is fully accountable to the law, and that's that.
What legislature or academic institution would fund this against the interests of Dow, Cargill, ADM, PepsiCo, Tyson, Kellog, Unilever…?

I had to dig into this, because I also felt Python is green.

The Python logo has been blue/yellow in the modern era and monochromatic prior, but the Python IDLE icon DID used to be green[1]. Which in practice probably cemented into my brain very early on, since I learned Python with IDLE!

If you could choose to live next to TMI with the knowledge that the TMI accident would happen at some point while you were living there or next to a coal power plant, TMI would be the correct choice.

Busses
Data that is transmitted or stored along with the keys is effectively plaintext, which Telegram does. The data is effectively plaintext on my device, at Telegram, and on the group members' devices, even if it is not plaintext in-between.

Data I send to a website over TLS is effectively plaintext on my computer and on the other side; in transit, it is not.

It all comes down to your threat model. Encryption does not protect information from entities who hold the keys to decrypt that information.
Anecdotally can vouch for air purifiers. I bought an old earth bermed home. I suspected radon may be an issue. Purchased 2 AirThings and they were off the government charts so to confirm Radon Daughters were being produced I bought more air purifiers and an Alpha Geiger Counter. I can hold it 2 inches from any of my filters and the alarm sounds. 640 CPM alpha radiation. That changed my project priorities. The filters only bought me some time as the air away from the filters is the same level of radiation as outdoor background noise but obviously the source is still emitting gas. I will probably just bulldoze this place.
I don't think it's necessarily self-incrimination to report a crime you witnessed, though I think it's dependent based on the time from when it occurred to the time of reporting.
If borne out this is pretty big. A huge amount of productivity is lost by parents taking care of sick kids or who get sick from their kids. Further it might even lessen the overall spread of seasonal diseases.
I mainly hang out in two Slack communities, both quite high-volume. The first one is public but regional (not in English), the other one is invite-only but quite big.

For people who want a nice place to hang out online, I can warmly recommend starting a Slack (”tenant”?). I’m kinda surprised that more people don’t try this. Mattermost or Discord might work too, but IMHO Slack still has the best UI for this. (The shortened retention sucks of course, but it’s still very useful.)
Answering law enforcement letters, even if it's just to say that data cannot be provided, is some 80% of cooperation needed.

Meta can provide conversation and account metadata (Twitter does the same - or used to do at least), or suspend accounts
> Nothing more, nothing less.

A lot more and a lot less than that. Arresting this CEO in France is largely a political decision, not a politically neutral enforcement action against the Telegram platform.

They don’t perform the same enforcement against other entities they could go after.
What do you mean people were not allowed to have material things? Joining the party and becoming a part of nomenklatura so you can get western stuff and a Volga was a dream of Soviet citizens. Getting anything, often even food in USSR required a personal connection (blat).
All this is irrelevant. The shuttle required so much inspection, refurbishment, and repair that it was little more than the world's largest and most expensive piece of political pork for a giant PR stunt. Contractors were selected so that every state had a contractor making shuttle parts in order to bribe congressional reps into supporting the massive boondoggle.

Each launch cost almost half a billion dollars in 2010 money. The Falcon 9 is reportedly $60-65M per launch.

SLS was just more of the same, welfare for all the states with contractors who grew fat and happy off the shuttle contracts. There was no technical argument whatsoever for reusing such ancient technologies.

Each RS25 engine cost $35M to refurbish for use in the SLS. For the cost of building TEN falcon 9 engines, NASA refurbished one RS25 engine.

And yes, of course it was absurdly dangerous to rely on not just one but two solid rocket motors of which there is no control whatsoever except for slight thrust vectoring...
While I personally agree with this sentiment, the last few years have made it amply clear that the population prefers padded rooms to icky playground sandlots.

From the bottom of the README.md file:

That only applies if you're the defendant.

If you're the witness to a murder and you're subpoena'd to court and refuse to testify then you are committing contempt of court. There was a guy in Illinois who got 20 years (reduced to 6 on appeal) for refusing to testify in a murder.

https://illinoiscaselaw.com/clecourses/contempt-of-court-max...

Contempt of court usually has no boundaries on the punishment, nor any jury trials. A judge can just order you to be executed on the spot if you say, fall asleep in his courtroom. Sheriffs in Illinois have the same unbridled power over jail detainees.
Well they will send brochures to schools now. That will fix it for sure I guess...
What is an easy way to do this manually? I can’t think of any, but then again u don’t use TikTok etc
As funny (or interesting) as it looks, I have to stop and ask do we really need this type of content vying for attention? Watching these videos feels like TikTok on steroids. I instantly ignore this type of content. It's mind-numbing with little substance.
> Around early 2015. Before then it was annoying to fill out online forms with addresses, because you had to guess the right way to say no-postcode. I still get letters to this day with "None." written where the postcode goes.

Oh yes I know. Many many websites used a "validator" for a postcode for Ireland so in many cases just putting "None" would not be accepted. You had to enter random stuff to see what format was accepted. Often they accepted UK-style postcodes or just numbers.

I think part of the reason was anticompetitive though. In the smaller village in Ireland the postman would know the address of each person, but a courier like DHL or TNT would not. I used to work at customer service for a company doing RMAs and I'd often get calls from exhausted couriers trying to find a customer.

The "170%" number is bogus.

Reducing the power of 890M to 17 W, the same as quoted for M3, would reduce the performance much less than the reduction in power consumption, improving the energy efficiency.

For a valid comparison of the energy efficiency, both systems must be configured for the same power consumption.

Moreover, by themselves those performance values do not prove that AMD is behind Apple in GPU architecture.

The better performance of the Apple GPU could be entirely caused by the much higher memory bandwidth and by the better CMOS process used for the Apple GPU.

For any conclusions about architecture, much more detailed tests would be needed, to separate the effects of the other differences that exist between these systems.
Ok the main reason that bots are a problem is they use a lot of resources without giving any value to the peoples providing the resources, most modern bot detecting systems use heuristics to determine if you are human or bot, which generally work reasonably well.

One thing I've found where it does not work very well are situations where I am very good and productive at what I am doing because then I evidently am less like a human and more like a bot.

Probably the heuristic should indicate an expertise level on the platform that could say something like User X has been on this platform 200+ hours probably they are a little bit more efficient than our baseline user profile.

That said this scheme if it only told you this machine is registered to exactly one human user then that combined with the heuristic could be enough to not make bots such a problem. Because it really isn't a problem that a bot happens to go to 3 pages a minute and scroll through the whole page and copy a bit of text, the problem is a bot that hits hundreds of pages. A bot that is as efficient as an average to slightly above average human is not a problem.

The heuristic should be something like

definitely a bot (did something no human can ever do, typed at a speed of 10010 WPM typing speed. Bot bug in keyboard emulation)
maybe a bot (percentile chance)
with checks that do not just increase your chance of being a bot, but also decrease it - this user wrote their username in the user panel, with one common misspelling (rearrange letters) at an acceptable typing speed, then before they went to password they backspaced to the misspelling and spelled it again correctly - decrease bot chance by 2.
> The rubber must hit the road

if the wheels were metal and the roadway was also metal, but arranged into parallel small roadways, then we could avoid using rubber and not have the problem of rubber particulates.
Is this proven to work? Like, I assume this might work for retention right? but will probably reduce attention on the content?
> to make their e2ee auditable

This is not the algorithm being audited, it's the key. Telegram's complete algorithm is auditable, including the open source client apps. Server code is always unverifiable, so let's not bring that up.

Secondly, WhatsApp channels and large groups (copied from Telegram) are not encrypted in any way (cmiw), as opposed to Telegram's MTProto 2.0 Cloud encryption. The app is completely closed-source even with all their claims of privacy and its TnC even discourages you from reverse-engineering it.
Printing the web, part 2: HTML and CSS for printing books (2019)
Judging by the comments this article seems true in the abstract: "You are only as strong as your weakest link" can be formalized better as "You are only strong if there is no path over your assets for an attacker to carry out their objective." The big problem with "checklist based security" is that it is agnostic to underlying infra and ignores whatever issues a graph based approach might reveal.

I'll add another item that defenders use for graphs: SBOMs. You can map out component relationships with them and understand if, for example, there's an issue with openssl, note which end applications are affected.
Oh right, The old, it’s not even worth trying kid give up. Let the big boys do it.

Show HN: Scrumbuiss – Project managment made easy
Hello everyone,

I have been hard working over a year to make project Management app called Scrumbuiss. Scrumbuiss is all in, lightweight and user-friendly software solution for your projects to make it successfully.

Core features:
- Kanban boards
- Project tracking
- Project history and activity feed
- Team management
- Tasks creating with collaboration with your team
- File uploads
- Updates and notifications about changes in your Project
- Intuitive, easy to use Dashboard to view latest changes
- and many more...

Why I didn't choose existing one?

I feel like existing Project management solutions are totally overpriced. They mostly are very overwhelming for new Users, which demotivate from the start. I build Scrumbuiss in mind to be very easy to use, free to use for hobbyists, very cost-efficient for small-big and scaling business and very fast to boost the execution of every Project.

If you have any questions, feedback or feature request, leave the comment below. Thanks in advance for any Feedback.
Their focus is on UX more than security. The app is super snappy and supports group chats with hundreds of thousands of participants.
