I genuinely still don't get it, but why do you need to fix the reference point once and for all?

I would assume in 99% of cases the user is simply just interested in his local time anyway.

If you really need the location info, then you would obv have to make some other tradeoffs like either

1) always store the location alongside the timestamp or

2) complicate (probably massively so) the time format, storing and parsing/processing logic

But I don't see how that's an issue of UTC timestamps per se rather than being an issue of requiring more information than just time (i.e. time AND location at the time).

Again, really would appreciate an explanation of where I am mistaken here because thus far the whole point of OP seems like a trivial non-issue to me.

Something that might be interesting in this topic - forked version [0] of telegram client made during protests in Belarus in 2020 (and appears to be actively maintained to this day). Can't vouch for it, but found it interesting.

US pharma already benefits from academic research which is paid for by tax money. This is a classic example of socializing the costs and privatizing the profits. Often times, you’re looking at 10-100x the cost for “statistically significant” uplift in efficacy. What happened to value-based medicine?
Why not make these same arguments for cars, food, or anything else that we buy? Just have the government negotiate maximum prices that manufacturers can charge. Maybe AI will help make cars cheaper in the future.

One advantage of uuids is they can be generated on several distributed systems without having to check with each other that they are unique. Only long ids make this reliable. Youtube ids are random and short, but youtube has to check they are unique when generating them.

Maybe one way is to split up a random assignment space and assign to each distributed node, but that would be more complex.

From OP's linked article:

>It is possible that liberalism does not just correlate with sadness but may exacerbate it. Musa al-Gharbi, a sociologist at Stony Brook University, has noted that educated, affluent white liberals have come to endorse the idea that America is systemically racist, leading them to view other racial and ethnic groups more warmly than their own. “This tension—being part of a group that one hates—creates strong dissociative pressures on many white liberals,” he wrote in the journal American Affairs. Another hypothesis, advanced by Jonathan Haidt, a social psychologist, and Greg Lukianoff, a lawyer, is that liberals are performing a reverse cognitive behavioural therapy on themselves: promoting not resilience and optimism about incrementally improving the world but catastrophic rumination about problems such as climate change and fearfulness of disagreement even on university campuses. Such habits of mind can deepen depression.
This is an unfair argument. Which standard library in Go gives you uuid.New().String()? Anyone can publish a third party library that condenses reading random data, creating an identifier from it, and rendering it as a string into a single line of code API.

This doesn’t mean the LLM is deterministic. It means it can spoof the right answer give enough time.
Kagi does some of this.
This is completely wrong.

Compilers are complex programs fraught with bugs. Modern microprocessors are hideously complex devices fraught with bugs. But at least we understand them in principle and practice.

LLMs are nonsense generators, you need a second device that can recognize correct programs to use them effectively. Only humans can do that all-important second part.

> Programming has always been about finding the next black box that is both powerful and flexible.

That's the opposite of programming. Programming is the art and science of developing reliable algorithms. You can treat programs as black boxes only after you're sure that they work correctly. Otherwise you're just engaged in a kind of cargo cult.

That the scary thing about the LLM fad: so many people seem so willing to abdicate their responsibility to actually think.

Just about every form of IPC is "slow". You have decided to pay a performance cost for safety.
What's insane is that pagerank, and most other graph centrality algorithms (the heart of modern search engines) have from the beginning supported a "personalization vector" which does EXACTLY this. It's available in all major graph analysis libraries (i.e. https://networkx.org/documentation/stable/reference/algorith...)

This exists, it's here, and no one uses it for anything except serving you better ads.

Yeah, I've gotten in the habit of stripping hyphens from the string representation of UUIDs in a lot of the code I write for that reason.
Two overlapping triangles would work. A little work in disassembly reassembly, but not much.
>It also used to require sharing phone numbers to add contacts

It no longer doesn't. It took them a while because you can't just slap features like that. It's not a string in a database like with Telegram.

Telegram has great UX because you can build things fast and easy when you don't have to give two shits about the security side of things. You can cover that part with grass-roots marketing department and volunteering shills.
True, but using standardized tests for hiring is legally perilous in the USA. Employers can incur serious liability if they use a test which has a disparate impact on a protected class, and they can't prove that the test is directly relevant to the job.

And the concept as described in how he brought it from the Sosarian Lore is laser etched into my head, because along the same fantastical lines we also have the infamous The Dark Crystal - and so having that be a strong element in the SciFi-Fantasy DNA of anyone of my generation into gaming, sci-fi etc - it was completely grokked immediately and understood.

What happens after the relicensing isn't measured as the community has already been disrupted. I'm also less certain on how to fairly measure and predict fork likelihood.

One challenge for forks is that relicensing doesn't always jump from fully-open to fully-closed. There's a lot of "fake open-source" and source-available licenses, like the one Redis now uses. These may "only impact you if you are AWS", so a fork "that AWS can use for free" feels less compelling. If React was to relicense, I expect they'd similarly take a small step.
"Incidentally, the CrowdStrike snafu had its roots in European regulations."

That is some truly twisted logic. Let's blame Microsoft-specific disasters on antitrust regulation. It is not even worthy of being called logic. It is lowbrow spin.

Oops, we can't because meaningful competition does not exist.

Reminds me long ago of working with a guy that did everything in C when we were rewriting things in Perl . Yes, his stuff was faster. Yes, it was also buggier, harder to debug, and took 3x as long to write for similar levels of functionality (it wasn't speed dependent code by any stretch.)
If watching this stuff makes you "hungry for more" then we have to show gay people just long enough straight porn and they will become straight. Right?

Instead of sitting in my office doing my work, then, spending a few minutes to verify once they're done, I'd sit in the kitchen next to them checking it as they went, being both distracted AND probably spending more time. I'd much rather trust but verify.

Citation needed, and also this argument is not really made in good faith. I live in Texas. These are the requirements to obtain an ID: https://www.dps.texas.gov/section/driver-license/how-apply-t...

As you can see there is a fee associated with it.

Technically you do not have to present ID in Texas[1], but the requirements to not present an ID are so onerous you would easily be able to afford an ID before you could meet them. Because not only do you have to provide one of these documents, you also have to prove you cannot reasonably obtain an id... But the requirements are such that if you have the ability to provide one of these documents, you almost certainly have the ability to obtain an id. So the state will say "Well, you're able to obtain this document, why can't you get an ID?" and invalidate your vote. So the de-facto result is that you need an ID.

And this argument handwaves away, as the above links demonstrate, the significant amount of hurdles required to get an ID in Texas, which is not only paying a fee.

My Matrix messages are, I presume, not encrypted, because every device I have prompts me to sign this device's keys with the keys of another device (which doesn't exist) and the option to reset the encryption keys and lose access to old messages doesn't work either (it just crashes Element).
> Many of the bad things on the internet are a layer 8 issue and collective human behaviour isn't an easy problem to solve.

Sure, clever analogy. The internet barely facilitates many best practices for congregating on a communal basis, barring a user's self-sovereign strive to cultivate, recognize and then compensate for its failings with whatever sort of information, interactions and dealings one happens to seek.

20+ years ago, i just settled for lurking whatever boards popped out of the ether and playing EverQuest, RuneScape and Habbo Hotel, to soak in its novelty. Such persistent asymmetricity should never be lost.

This is in general only true for either trivial toy compilers or ones which have gone to lengths to have reproducible builds. GCC for instance uses a randomised branch prediction model in some circumstances.
This claim is what really makes me skeptical of Telegram's privacy story. Their assertion is completely incorrect. (Source: have implemented end to end encrypted payload delivery over APNs / GCM.)

And if they are so off base on this, they must either be incompetent or liars. Neither of which builds trust.
At a personal|SME level? Who might want do DDOS John Smith or Pop's store? How much iron you need for such usage? That's without counting the various "datacenters horror stories" about how badly many providers are really without appearing.

My homeserver is a simple NixOS, so I have to maintain just a config, easy to replicate anytime without manual setups or complex orchestration, it's a small celeron machine with 32Gb ram and two sata classic disks + 2 nvme on a PCIe adapter card, total cost around 300€ few years ago, cooling is juts the home cooling, power it's free on sunny days (domestic p.v.) and otherwise it's still cheaper than the cheapest VPS, plus it can do much more. It's run my HA, Asterisk (for having some VoIP numbers on my deskphone and diverting call to my mobile when I'm not at home, nothing more), a small video-surveillance setup, fetchmail+maildrop+notmuch to serve mails via muchsync, etc etc etc a minimal equivalent VPS setup would costing me around 100+€/month, performing much less. If my server die I have a spare motherboard+cpu a little bit outdated but powerful enough drives are both mirrors from different brands, I have some cold spare anyway shared if needed with my main desktop etc in case of a complete crash I have my config, few kb of text, and I can replicate it anywhere. For personal usage is MUCH more than any classic hosted setup.

The only real issues is for most:

- knowing the software stack they need, witch is rare, because yes maintain a classic Arch or FreeBSD server it's much less comfy than NixOS/Guix System especially if you never heard of them but heard a gazillion of recommendations to use k*s or docker, proxmox and co AT HOME some even trying on raspi sbc...

- some minor legal and hw things, depending on your home and how much the temp mount in summer inside.

Essentially for most it's just about knowing the sw stack witch is a big issue since no university seems to be interesting in really teaching FLOSS nowadays and most professors themselves have very little practical knowledge.
And yet Telegram doesn't allow to have e2ee chats on a Linux desktop or phone. You must rely on Google/Apple.

Yes, I already thought about this. In theory all "production access", be it ssh, k8s commands, database access of any kind or even a ruby shell could go through such a a flow.

> And, heck, as a programmer if you have a method that fails at 1 in 500 cases you might even be justified in punting fixing that thing.

I don’t necessarily disagree, but if I intentionally ignored a fix to a method that resulted in a service-level equivalent of a user going blind every 1 in 500 times it ran, I’d get fired pretty quickly. But then again, I have also met many programmers who, when presented with such cases, pretend they do not exist.

This was only noticed when the enforcement forgot to renew the certificate. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37961166

You know, I agree with nearly all of these points. I even think there is something to your point about Napster 'being a symptom' but (as people love to say around here) it's 'orthogonal' to the original point I wanted to make.

Few things would please me more than to live under a system where arts and culture were freely available to all, and artists didn't have to starve in the process. It doesn't strike me as far-fetched either; it wouldn't take much to improve on the system we currently have.

But my original point was that, given the society we actually had when Napster came along, it was unreasonable for Napster unilaterally to decide for everyone else that existing laws and expectations no longer mattered.
If funding pharmaceutical research is a common public interest, then it should be funded the way all common public interests should be: taxes. Taxes pay for the weather predictions that make modern agriculture possible. Taxes pay for the basic physics research that keeps Moore's Law on track. Taxes pay for the transportation and logistics infrastructure that make the modern economy possible. Taxes pay for the fire engines that might keep your house from burning down some day. Taxes can and should pay for the pharmaceutical research that makes modern medicine effective. This kind of generalized "everybody needs it but no single person can pay for it and trying to do it through capitalism distorts everything" benefit is precisely what taxes are designed for.

If I were to try bootstrapping rust, I think I would write a proto-rust in C that has fewer features than full rust, and then write a full rust compiler in proto-rust.

‘proto-rust’ might, for example, not have a borrow checker, may have limited or no macro support, may never free memory (freeing memory isn’t strictly needed in a compiler whose only goal in life is to compile a better compiler), and definitely need not create good code.

That proto-rust would basically be C with rust syntax, but for rust aficionados, I think that’s better than writing a rust compiler in “C with C syntax” that this project aims for.

Anybody know why this path wasn’t taken?

Now we come to your ActivityPub stuff, including PeerTube. The question is, who pays for storage? What are the economics of storage?

I literally go into detail here: https://community.intercoin.app/t/who-pays-for-storage-nfts-...

I met the founders of LBRY / Odysee and other tokens that are actually being used for actual streaming. LBRY is a genuine utility token being used for instance.

You are totally ignoring the part that people need to get paid for storing stuff, and at the same time the payment needs to happen automatically.
