I don't want my washer and dryer to connect to wifi and use an app to send a push notification that only works if I pay a subscription fee and set up an online profile when my laundry is done and then send me push ads and email upsells every day for the rest of my life. I want them to go BRRRRRRTTTTTTTTTTT loud enough for me to hear and ignore and I'll get to it when I get to it.

Also I can't wait for these same articles about AI everything.
This seems to confirm speculation that Durov himself is not accused of committing these crimes, but rather than Telegram didn't do enough to prevent criminals from using it in the commission of crimes. The only exception (maybe?) is the money laundering, which seems to be a direct accusation against Durov.

It's also fascinating that they also seem to be nailing him for failing to disclose the limitations of Telegram's cryptography.
The PDF comes with an English version, too. It's on pages 3 and 4 :)
Sure, happy to consider an explanation. But I do notice that a lot of obvious crimes are not being prosecuted, which leads me to believe that police and prosecutors just aren't trying very hard.

Why doesn't the police officer care that my bike was stolen? Why are package thieves stealing things in broad daylight? Why can a YouTuber setup a sting operation where they get their ps4 stolen in broad daylight after a few hours but police can't operate the same sting?
You seem delusional if you're surprised police work 7 days a week to arrest a high value target, while courts don't.
How to Ruin Your Electric Car's Battery – LFP Edition [video]
I fully expect a disruptive startup to leverage large context LLMs to offer a service which understands policies and automatically (as much as possible) appeals any and all insurance company shenanigans with all means available. (Need a large context window to get all the legal and policy texts into there.)

Also, not living in US, I wouldn't be surprised to learn that:

- any attempts to implement this will be met with weapons-grade lobbying on all levels to make it illegal

- it was attempted and litigated to hell and back and hence forced to shut down

- this business model is illegal already, neither lobbying nor litigation necessary
The article says Frontier currently offers fiber internet in most of the 25 states it serves. This is a weird way of saying it's in 18 states.

The vast majority Frontier's FiOS is in California, Texas, Florida and New York. Frontier's little footprints in other states are basically them padding their resume.
This would be really nice if you put them both in portrait orientation. The only time I want landscape is when I am watching video content, and I don't need a keyboard for that.
Honestly at this point I am assuming there are bot farms (Russian origin?) spreading misinformation about this arrest.

The amount of delusional dissent is too high. And Snowden, IMO at this point an FSB asset, has immediately come out to condemn the arrest.
It is not my experience at all, and at this point, I have been asked for nutritional advice for 25 years. Any specific recommendations for the general population will be interpreted as that food + all the others that have been eaten before.
And aside from extreme examples, such as people who eat only candy all day, any reduction in calories ingested will lead to some feelings of hunger. Yes, by eating protein and fiber at every meal, which by the way is included in my recommendations, you can reduce hunger by what, 5 or 10 percent? But hunger will kick in.

Should I be eating this food? Eat less. What about this supplement? Eat less. A cheat meal? Eat less. Charles Bronson was asked how he kept in excellent shape in his 50s. His answer? Small portions. Accept you need to eat less, food will be there tomorrow, and the day after, and the day after again (there is a reference there to the movie "The Eclipse" by Antonioni, with Alain Delon and Monica Vitti as protagonists). In a short time, a few weeks, you get used to ingesting fewer calories.
This is cool but also it makes me think about the security implications of giving away your mouse movement data. Seems like creating realistic mouse movements can be valuable for defeating anti-scraping systems. Some security software even claims to uniquely identify a user based on their mouse movement.
> they are extremely against MicroG

They are? I thought that was GrapheneOS. (Not commenting on which side is "correct".)
And yet we still have a pensions crisis.
All Bureaucratic Structures eventually become self supporting. Religion, business, government, non-profits, industry groups, standards bodies, everything.

Bureaucracy isn't inherently bad, but it is a dragon that everyone should keep a very watchful eye on.
> Fixing healthcare costs will require a lot of people losing their job, and that wont be popular.

And going to a 'single payer' model would also reduce jobs. And the whole "they want to get rid of your insurance and raise your taxes!".

Well, the taxes would be raised, but almost certainly to a smaller extent than the price of the insurance policy you pay for. A middle of the road health insurance policy for me right now is around $1k/month. Whether I pay for it, or an employer offsets some of it - it's beside the point. That's $12k/year that is effectively a 'health tax', it's just not called a 'tax'. Somehow, weirdly, we use the term 'benefit', without with I may more easily and quickly die or languish in pain. Some benefit ;)

But yes... if my taxes go up by $10k year, but I don't have to pay for a health insurance policy... I'm still ahead. If I pay for it all, and the employer is out of the loop, it'll feel 'wrong' to many employed folks, but the employer will have more money - they should either pay people more, or hire more people (who used to work in private insurance companies).
Thank you; this is more-credible-sounding advice.

Would you apply that same advice to walking in the city, in the middle of the day, in a state where some nasty mosquito-borne disease has been detected this year. Or would you modify the advice for that?
Maybe our definitions of "Tax shelters" are a bit different, but I think of Cayman Islands or Bermuda when I hear that, and Netherlands is not like that in the context of Europe. Probably Ireland is the closest you get, so would have been a much better example.
The embrace of Dorico is really interesting; at a guess, that seems to me less like a typical product strategy move and more like an engineering team that really cared about the product domain recognizing retirement needs among their codebase and/or team.
does this approach make sense for an app-router based nextjs app hosted on vercel?
Insurance isn't weird. We have been trading risk for thousands of years, and modern insurance companies have existed for hundreds of years.

What's weird about health insurance in the US is that it's often tied to an employer, and you can't freely switch between insurance providers on a whim. It's a way worse experience than insuring a car, which can be done on a phone in a few minutes.
why are you using 7g if you don't need speed? Wifi 7 can maybe keep up but it has distance limitations and so fiber is better.

of course if performance is accaptable is the real question. But if you are happy on wifi you can be satisfied with a cheaper plan, or so I'm guessing
No, you miss the point.

If HN decided to ban all posts about Donald Trump that is moderation. Users voluntarily submit to this policy by participating in the site, and if they do not, they will be banned.

If the State of California required that all web sites run from their state are REQUIRED to ban all posts about Donald Trump, that is censorship.

Moderation is "your house, your rules" while censorship is someone else imposing their rules in your house.

Do you see what I'm saying? When France is talking about "moderation" of Telegram, what they actually mean is censorship.
Cheapfakes... TIL.

Instantly useful thank you!

Health insurance and this anti health insurance product reminds me of the “time share” industry and time share exit companies. However, unlike the exit companies. This is actually useful.

Hope it ends up working out, and makes it sustainable. Although one thing about insurance companies is that they have made the rules of this game.

Some sources indicate there is some legal requirement or right granted to patients for these internal reviews. But I can’t find the exact law.

If this service takes off, I wouldn’t be surprised if the language of this law changes over the years to make it more difficult to file patient appeals (or make it outright impossible).
Yep, it is, I was chatting about this with Charlie on Discord last night (about this specific GH issue).
So it's interesting to know why people say what they do *when* (1982) they do. At 5:23 Rear Adm. Hopper says "they are dumping polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) around the country side".

Toxic waste was a highly relevant cultural phenomena at the time. I believe she was referencing the "Valley of the Drums" toxic waste site which was proposed as a superfund site in 12/82. Love Canal made the subject popular 5 years earlier.

For some reason I'm extremely interested in toxic waste. Anyways bit of reference.
And then you have phenomena like a restaurant being closed for deep cleaning because an outbreak of Hepatitis A was traced back to it - a sick employee dragged himself to work instead of being at home curing their disease.

So you go and take personal responsibility for your liver and take the Hep A shot yourself. One wishes the government supported life, liberty and happiness of its people and offered labour protection, sick leave and healthcare to its weakest citizens.

Vaccinations are a few hundred per shot, and the part-time worker hasn't got insurance or the spare cash.
There's no stigma for treating clinically low T. But as with most things in life, there's a spectrum. And strength / resistance exercise / ability to build & retain muscle will be impaired way before you hit the clinical threshold. There's a fairly solid correlation across the normal range.

Having said that, if there's no medical reason, what we're really talking about is people taking medication that they'd be, on balance, physically healthier without, in order to better fit in with society's expectations (endurance exercise, triathlons and so on, is associated with good long-term health outcomes, being jacked is not). And while I don't think artificially boosting T within the normal range is necessarily any worse for your body than, say, being on hormonal birth control long-term is for women, it's still pretty messed up that people feel like they have to.
> doesn't change the fact that even with roommates, the burden is disproportionately higher than it was for the last generation, particularly with housing

Oh totally agree. Just pointing out that a straight comparison of wages to home prices doesn't dictate unaffordability.
Obviously nobody wants to be underpaid, but not everyone wants to be employee-level on the clock for uber the entire time they're logged in and taking offers.
Age impacts health insurance costs, but health insurance is specifically excluded for considering existing conditions because people can’t get long term coverage.

If someone gets a chronic condition while covered the company isn’t paying out a lifetime benefit, so they soon need to renegotiate rates while sick even though they had insurance while they got sick.
> The second weirdest thing is that insurance companies can't offer more tightly defined plans for, say, young people who never go to the doctor except for critical/emergency care vs me who goes a couple times a year for various things.

That's not weird; it's essential for the system to work, because you can rapidly move from "never go to the doctor" into "seven figures of healthcare spend" without much warning.

We used to have "high risk pools"; it was horrific. https://www.kff.org/affordable-care-act/issue-brief/high-ris...
i hope i’m misconstruing what complicity means here but how long before law enforcement authorities are putting open source maintainers in jail for complicity, because bad actors profited off their labor to terrible ends? the crypto utilities in go, for example, are extremely easy to use, and a competent programmer could fashion their own comms technology out of just that (i’m slightly exaggerating here). but then would law enforcement come for go’s authors?
A website you can only visit once
So, do I understand correctly that they are not cracking down on him for operating an e2e encrypted app that facilitates all those things (CP, organised crime, etc.) (because as many have already argued in comments in previous threads, Telegram is only E2EE in a very narrow use-case, and most likely the comms in question were not encrypted), but cracking down on him for not giving the authorities access to those unencrypted comms that they've requested, which is seen as facilitation of those things (CP, organised crime, etc.)?

In other words, Signal is in the clear, because it's E2EE for all purposes and the operators wouldn't have the ability (via reasonable means) to access the data in the first place?
> very real toxicity within the geometric algebra community. I can’t do much about

I was hoping the article would be about this instead. OP wondering if you have any elaborations for us to hear.
To participate in an American healthcare treatment you need to interact with a private for-profit company which will shut down if it doesn't on average attain significant profitability; Let's say 30% goes to shareholders, taxes, receptionists, keeping the lights on.

But they don't deal with everything. They have to interact with upstream providers! And they have to pay somebody to negotiate with them. So another 30%, and add 5% just to pay somebody to bargain the price with the Flu Shot Distributor.

But the flu shot distributor has to interact with yet more upstream providers - the flu shot packager, who interacts with the flu shot pharmaceutical company, and the syringe company. Everybody adds their overhead and then their premium; "Price signals" become exponentially complex and more a matter of the mood of the negotiation than anything else.

This is all an externality of a non-vertically-integrated capitalist system, which is somehow, somewhy, supposed to be regulated by your desire to get a flu shot relative to your ability to pay; It is not at all optimal in the market system for everybody to get a flu shot, that defeats the fundamental mechanism of the supply-demand curve.

https://siderea.dreamwidth.org/1179450.html this essay series offers some of the better hypotheses on cost disease that I'm familiar with.
You said "putting functionality in the wrong places".

The font system does not have any such functionality as z80 disassembly. It has generic functionality for generating glyphs.

If there are any normal human written languages that benefit from the functionality to generate modified glyphs dynamically based on content and context rules, then the functionality is not misplaced.
"Serverless platform" is an oxymoron.

But it worked for Salesforce, which is a software company whose slogan is "no software".
Thanks - I'll see if I can find some tips there. Currently, I've got the screens rotated correctly (for me - both landscape) and the bottom screen recognises touches but in the wrong place and orientation. The standard KDE touchscreen and touchpad controls don't recognise that there's any device attached.
One the second point, they essentially offer this with high deductible plans. Essentially, these plans really only make sense if you only expect to have emergency care (like young people).
Our previous landlord evicted us to "rent it to her sister". We saw it listed for rent at a higher price soon after, and then it sat empty for 4 years. That did my heart good.
Well the entire public policy point of insurance is to have the people who pay in but don't really use it subsidize the people who end up needing it. This dynamic is why the ACA had an individual mandate, which addressed the incentive of young healthy people to not want to pay in.

It would be sensible if we were talking about one society-wide pool (ie single payer), since those younger people would end up being subsidized as they developed health conditions. But as it stands having many pools run by independent companies is fraught with perverse incentives, since an "insurance" company is quite happy to have you as a customer when you're paying in, but much less happy when they're paying out.
And it was probably heavily influenced by DC Comics alternate earths. Earth-2 was introduced in 1961.
This is the dynamic that every corporation and government entity leverages. I feel like a frog noticing the water is starting to get hot as I see everything: water, power, trash, internet, groceries, registration fees, etc. getting more and more expensive and I just for sanity have to pay each one and forget it.

Just this morning I was thinking how every single streaming service pushed out a version with ads and a more expensive ad-free version recently. It just comes to ~$20/mo to upgrade them all, but how much more can they pile on before people just have nothing left?
I'm sure it can do a plaintext search just fine. What the author is talking about is language-aware features like "go to definition". Holding all of a whole web browser's C++ parsing tree in memory is a lot bigger ask than just its plain text.
Wow! Amazing job! I briefly met Holden at Kubecon. What an incredible engineer.

They're already at 50 Gbps:

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Higher_Speed_PON (G.9804)

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethernet_in_the_first_mile

The main point is to deploy fibre everywhere, and not necessarily which service speed is offered.

(A separate question is whether to go with PON or with 'active' networking.)
I've been rocking an Asus zenbook duo(first gen from like 2020) for a few years now. Well... Since 2020. It has to be said, in the case of the zenbook, there's a lot of compromise in terms of user experience. The small screen is useful on the go but I do use a desktop computer 95% of the time. I'm ignoring the fact that the linux drivers are a bit of a pain in the ass. The bigger problem is the fact that although you gain some additional screen area, the keyboard is a bit awkward but nowhere nearly as awkward as the trackpad. It is practically unusable so you need to carry around a mouse with you.

Setting those things aside, I have mixed feelings about adding more hinges to laptops. In my experience the hinges have always been the Achilles' heel of laptops. Also any additional screen adds up a fair bit of weight which seems trivial until you end up stranded on an airport for 20 hours and have to figure out how to take a nap on the bench while your stuff is secure(looking at my dumb younger self who decided to buy a 17 inch Sony laptop at the end of my first year in university). And the extra screen means your battery life will suffer. I mean yeah, I have 4 monitors on my workstation and when it comes to work, they actually make sense: one for a terminal and logging, one for actual code, one for documentation and one to manage chats and music. But when it comes to laptops... I'm not so sure anymore.

Does anyone offhand know if you bring your own key (anthropic, OpenAI, etc) does it hit the AI providers directly or does it pass it to zeds servers first?
Not from these types of photos, but there are computed tomography techniques that are being used to help reverse engineer chips.. not to point fingers but its somewhat of known secret that the Chinese are using CT to reverse engineer American made semiconductor designs where the IP has not been successfully exfiltrated.
There are cases where printf helps but debugging doesn't. Multithreaded code is one of such cases.
Thanks for trying it out.

1. I’m seeing a toast when logged out saying to log in to buy. It only shows the first time, I can improve that so that if someone misses it the first time and tries again they can see it.

2. Great point, I can add support for drive-by purchases. Either allowing downloading a copy of the repo or generating an ssh key someone can clone the repo with.

Yea my system does not currently allow flexible pricing, it’s free or for a set price. I have plans to support it too.
If you’re bad enough at your job to get fired you basically are a fraud.
It's weird you use your insurance to get a routine shot or exam. I don't use my car insurance to put gas in my car, or get the brake pads changed. I use it when someone does thousands of dollars of damage to my car.
Perhaps they can add an obfuscating randomizer to the movement pattern so the original mouse movement is distorted.
Same security issue goes for hackernews comments, there is a user identifiable pattern in the way you write sentences and paragraphs, although the fingerprint less certain then a mouse movement. With hacker news you could obfuscate it with pre-parsing a comment through an llm with some instructions.
Maybe you are talking about Ultima Online, because the original Ultima games predate Time Bandits. Also, Marvel multiverse would have been mostly influenced by DC Comics alternate Earths, with Earth-2 introduced in 1961.
I've heard of tricks like player position prediction/interpolation by the clients, in particular for the FPS/Sim genres, which I guess is mainly aiming at mitigating "lag spikes" more than optimizing the network traffic, but it looks like it could give some leeway to servers as well ?
What about the people, in Russia, right now, that are actively creating culture?

Parties in control of a government are not the people of that country, they are only a small subset of the people from that country.

Unfortunately, some parties in control of countries think it is ethically or morally right to send children to kill other people's children.
Hand written html, no CSS, #FF0000 font color AND egregious use of gifs? And not a single piece of social media?! Now THIS is a what website should look like! Maybe I am just getting old but I miss the Good Old Days of the web.
I've never tried the many-apps-per-server use case and I don't think it's supported. We use it in production where its more common to have many-servers-per-app.
I think this is the attitude that makes it difficult to lose weight. Dieting is not a personal journey or a spiritual endeavor; you have to eat less and serve smaller portions. It should not be restrictive beyond what is reasonable (I assure you that no one has died in the past because Oreos were not available).

Interestingly, when a person gains weight they are not asked to do so under medical treatment, but when the same person wants to lose the fat and get down to a reasonable weight there are all these warnings, dangers and side effects. It's all autosuggestion. Eat less, and do that reasonably.
At several big companies I worked at HR was at the center of the second group. They had no concept of what the organization "did" as far as product output and so on. As far as they were concerned they were the organization.

At one company we had a couple round of layoffs, thus there were more demands on everyone's time. HR then would drag us into "mandatory not required" meetings where they would waste a week of our time teaching us about "stress management" from people who as far as we could tell spent much of their time in the breakroom.

One such HR person even went so far as to file a complaint, with HR, that the team that sat next to them in the office ... weren't very social / didn't attend social events put on by HR.

I never know what to do with these kind of people... I laboriously explained to a few what other people did, but I mostly just insulate myself from them so it isn't as frustrating.
There's also the call you get when the founder breaks something and blames the person who touched it before them.
