“Pavel DUROV, founder and CEO of instant messaging and platform TELEGRAM, was
arrested at Le Bourget airport in the outskirts of Paris on Saturday, the 24th of August 2024, then taken into police custody at 8 p.m.

This measure comes in the context of a judicial investigation opened the 8th of July
2024, following a preliminary inquiry initiated by Section J3 - JUNALCO (Fight against Cybercrime) of the Paris Public Prosecutor’s Office.

This judicial investigation was opened against person unnamed, on charges of:

- Complicity – web-mastering an online platform in order to enable an illegal
transaction in organized group,

- Refusal to communicate, at the request of competent authorities, information
or documents necessary for carrying out and operating interceptions allowed
by law,

- Complicity – possessing pornographic images of minors,

- Complicity - distributing, offering or making available pornographic images of
minors, in organized group,

- Complicity - acquiring, transporting, possessing, offering or selling narcotic
substances,

- Complicity - offering, selling or making available, without legitimate reason,
equipment, tools, programs or data designed for or adapted to get access to and to damage the operation of an automated data processing system,

- Complicity – organized fraud,

- Criminal association with a view to committing a crime or an offense punishable
by 5 or more years of imprisonment,

- Laundering of the proceeds derived from organized group’s offences and
crimes,

- Providing cryptology services aiming to ensure confidentiality without certified
declaration,

- Providing a cryptology tool not solely ensuring authentication or integrity
monitoring without prior declaration,

- Importing a cryptology tool ensuring authentication or integrity monitoring
without prior declaration.

The investigative magistrates in charge of this preliminary judicial investigation have
requested a co-referral of the Centre for the Fight against Cybercrime (Centre de lutte
contre les criminalités numériques, C3N) and the Anti-Fraud National Office (Office
National Anti-Fraude, ONAF) for the pursuance of the investigations.

It is within this procedural framework in which Pavel DUROV was questioned by the
investigators.

The custody period was extended until the 25th August 2024 by an investigative
magistrate and can last up to 96 hours (that being the 28th August 2024) given the
applicable procedure for organized crime offences, as referred to above.”
Feedback - This is awesome so far.

What's the latest talk on the timing for the scheme-based scripting language?
FUSE can be a bit trickier than a single queue of data chunks. Reads from /dev/fuse actually pick the right message to read based on priorities, and there's cases where the message queue is meddled with to e.g. cancel requests before they're even sent to userspace. If you naively switch it to eagerly putting messages into a userspace-visible ringbuffer, you might significantly change behavior in cases like interrupting slow operations. Imagine having to fulfill a ringbuf worth of requests to a misbehaving backend taking 5sec/op, just to see the cancellations at the very end.
The reverse question is what interests me. Modern computers are so much faster, yet we need an ever growing amount of them to solve "the same" problems.

If you could run a small bank or insurance company on a beefy mainframe back in the 80s, then why can't I do the same today with faster hardware? Sure there's more work for the computer to do, but it's also much much faster and as almost infinite more storage space.

How much hardware would you need to run something like HN, if you wrote the code with the same care and understanding of the underlying machine architecture as a 80s software developer? And HN is probably already a good example of how much you can do with very little software.
I used tmux before Terminator for my local usage, but the fact that a mouse selection covers all panes at once makes it really annoying.

Tmux is great for remote/shared usage though (and it survives ssh disconnection).

Yeah this is a tired old narrative about SF. Remote-only companies can absolutely crush it and save money at the same time.
errrr I'm not saying I want to fake it, I'm talking about actually qualifying for such a job (I've worked in this field for 20+ years, tons of experience), where does one find such a job that's paying such amounts for remote work and relatively few meetings?

(I have enough contracting work through my client network anyway, was just amusingly asking)
That sounds more efficient.
You mean you didn't install the Yahoo! translation extension to your kernel?
True. OTOH - I suspect that OD specialist officers, summoned to your property by your "I found something in my garden that looks a lot like that WWII mortar shell in your Call-us-immediately-if-you-see Guide" phone call would be far more benevolently inclined than regular police officers coming to your property for most other reasons.
It’s the backend that implements serverless architecture. A serverless server, I guess. Roll your eyes if you like, but “serverless” is still a snappier term than “declarative on-demand server provisioning, configuration, and scaling” and most people are into that whole brevity thing.
You might want to check out The Amazing $1 Microcontroller [1] which explores multiple microcontrollers that could be had for less than $1 (when buying a hundred of them) in 2020. I haven't checked how much the prices have dropped since (if at all) but it could still be a good starting point when looking for parts at the 8021's price range.

There's also a second order effect to not having the most competent military. Would you rather the US military was less effective than it is today? Or only less effective than it might be?
EDIT: had a response here to your "most" comment because I thought you hadn't seen the full quote from Farragher in the article but saw that you referred to it earlier in your comment and were just making a distinction between the frequency of "exercise" and "healthy diet", so I deleted it.

>Do you have a source to contradict this?

My claim, as I hoped was fairly clear in my comment, was that Valter Longo, an expert with similar crendentials presumably, presents a contradicting view to the source being cited in the article. As I stated in my comment, Longo claims that the healthy diet he prescribes is supported by centenarian studies -- ie supported by interviews with very old people about their diets and way of living. Now if you want me to literally cite Longo's work in detail despite your lack of citations supporting Farragher's position, I only can at the moment point you to Longo's book: The Longevity Diet. I am recalling all this from memory, so I apologize for not providing word-for-word citations. I can only remind you have not done so as well.

>I don't understand how your comment answers mine

Your comment had this phrase:

>Unless it's your area of expertise of course, but then I hope you'll avoid spreading unproven advice.

I was pointing to the irony that the expert quoted in the article was possibly saying something that was itself disputed by other experts in his field.

In fact just a few hours ago, someone shared this article on HN:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41353957

The claim in this article is that many of those old people with bad health habits were most likely frauds, and that experts who relied on government statistics, and who didn't bother talking to these people and checking whether these people were actually alive, came to the wrong conclusion. It well be that Longo's research is also affected, but the Farragher quote cited in the article matches the supposed bad habits attributed to those fraudulent (?) Blue Zone inhabitants.

moral of the story: before jumping on an expert's bandwagon, check with other experts.*

Sure, Signal encryption is better implemented than Motorola's. That means nothing when your device can be cracked with something like Pegasus without any interaction form you.

Fair! This is for people who have the extra space. However, there are ways to make a hybrid or a temporary sex room that is only used for special occasions. It all depends on the specific needs.
It's absolutely impossible to reason with people like that, and I have to imagine you're already well aware. Evidence means nothing when "belief" can replace it.
It's delusional to think a modern technology is more secure than an old Motorola radio used by local law enforcement?
Sega did not ship with a programming language. Hardware was closed so it took a while to find and explore its limits. Nothing to do with advances in CS, but a lot to do with devs' curiosity.
A little loose with “matching.”
Frankstein-ing frameworks like this is asking for trouble. This smells like something that was made by devs because they hated working on WP, not understanding that the reason why WP is picked if often due to political reasons, not technical ones.

I predict two forces will turn these kinds of projects into spaghetti: Actual devs working on resolving issues with code, less technical people fighting to use plugins and other add-ons to add functionality.

Similar anecdote. My father worked in a supermarket before a pivot to real estate. After the 2008 crash he wasn’t able to retire on time and went back to the supermarket to stock shelves during the night shift…at 70 years old

The lack of stable health care understandably scares older people. It’s concerning to see so many seniors in jobs that have traditionally been done by high schoolers or folk in their 20s
It depends on the project, but most large scale projects require test(s) for the fix, and will block submission unless its provided.

These types of projects undergo constant code-change/refactoring/re-architecture etc. If you don't add a test for your specific issue, there is a non-trivial change that it'd be broken again in some future release.

Its somewhat worse if an issue gets fixed, and broken again, vs. it being broken the whole time. E.g. with the former users have likely started to rely on the fixed behaviour, then will experience disruption when it breaks again.
Well when a 30-year old finds out that it's not that rare for a 70-year old to have "higher T" naturally compared to younger men on average, I guess that could trigger their own personal "crisis" ;)

Plenty who are 70 are not in the Viagra generation yet either.
Does that mean Apple ][ and Commodore 64 software or does it mean PLATO, everything from Xerox PARC, and Lisp machines?
I would agree, I would also add that generally programmers today are not used to dealing with the memory limits of '80s computers. What is now considered an embedded device, back then was a desktop. My smartwatch likely has more memory than a PC Jr.
That’s… amazing. I love it.

Software engineering is really distinct from computer science. The practices that are prevalent in an industry differ from the algorithms discovered in academia (or in industry)
Do you mean by data source, export the state to some external data store and the other projects import it from there instead of importing it directly from tfstate?

Assume role, yes, unless the services accessing the resources from outside.

Thank you!
Yep, the archives are there, its just a matter of going through the processes and finding them. The archives are HUGE though, so don't expect things to happen quickly.
i suspect this particular security hole in the signal protocol is the single reason why whatsapp hasn't been banned yet.

They can eavedrop by simply adding a device to a conversation and nobody will notice. Your device will gladly send them decryption keys and provide them with a copy of the message nicely.
By DE, I'm mostly talking about having a cohesive graphical shell, not the random apps that comes pre-installed (who cares about those?).

The login manager, lock screen, taskbar, notification daemon, launcher, OSD, workspace overview, etc. In WMs (or WM-like compositors), you either have to cobble all of this together yourself or just give up and convince yourself that you're a minimalist.

Doing this kind of stuff was fun for a while, but these days I'm starting to crave for something actually good and polished.
I had a manager relate to me overhearing almost that exact comment made in a manager meeting at a mid-size corp I worked for in 2008. He left in part because of that attitude, and I ultimately did too. It’s egregiously abusive.
The title is not correct IMO, it is not "end-to-end encrypted" by default.

But the traffic between you and the Telegram server is always encrypted and the "end-to-end encryption" can be enabled.
>Software engineering is really distinct from computer science

I think both phrases are floating signifiers in practice.
But the asymmetry still exists. Which means your AI has to fight a much better trained AI that the company developed because it would rather spend 10 billion on AI than pay out 11 billion in claims, and now you're still screwed.

That's exactly how I have XFCE set up, with Super+Numpad keys bound to each half/quarter of the screen (Super+5 for maximize). Works great, and I can get all of the benefits of tiling without the limitations.

As a company, they seem to have lost their way with Windows as a usable desktop operating system on every desk and in every home.

I'm sure there are still great programmers working on it, but outwardly, the appearance is awful.
Computer Science hasn't advanced all that much. Some algorithms have been improved but it is a very slow process, as one would expect.

When it comes to 'software engineering', such as it is, we have regressed. We are incredibly wasteful, in the name of productivity. Some of that trade-off makes sense, but a lot doesn't, and there's diminishing returns. The microservices trend, that's spread like wildfire, is a good example. It makes sense in some cases, but the additional resource consumption is astronomical, both in computer resources, and humans, which is something it's supposed to help with. But the culture moved to an extent that, if you say a particular system is better off served by a monolith, you are seen as an alien in the best case, and a an unskilled hack in the worst case.

Sure, your team can package a microservice in a container, using any language, expose an API, ship it to kubernetes and publish your API spec without having to talk to anyone. Now, you have a whole other team managing your K8s and AWS environments, a whole bunch managing the different database systems that are isolated per service, yet another dealing with whatever messaging mechanism you have probably added once direct API calls became an issue, and you have a full team of Secops people deploying the latest and greatest tools from CNCF to fix the problems the architecture created. While a lot of that would have been, in other times, been solved with a function call. Worse yet, any runtime environments are duplicated, and even then simplest service now demands multiple gigabytes to run. Add HA requirements and you have an enormous overhead, to the point that deploying multiple copies of the monolith would have been far simpler – and much cheaper.

In the 80s, we had Lisp Machines. Nothing has come close ever since. Maybe if we had stuck with S-Expressions, we wouldn't have to reinvent markup languages every 5 years (XML, JSON, YAML, etc). Even without them, the Lisp condition system is amazing.
Is somewhere same graph for Linux?

I think a crucial difference here is that images are (slightly) more defensible.

There are still some tells that indicate an image was AI created. It's enough to mark them as AI and discourage brands from using them, after pushback. At this point, the human difference is noticeable.

This isn't the case for code. No one can tell the difference between AI and human-generated code, not at the point at which users access it. And since there isn't there really isn't much to 'fight.'
At least Coolify and CapRover are missing. Also, I don't think Kubernetes qualifies as PaaS.
Maybe i'm missing it, but I think this would be much more useful if it showed what the optimal way to navigate per-target was.

There is real value there. American tech sells things people actually want.

And, indeed, we even saw home prices fall quite considerably when that real value creation was at its peak (iPhone, Facebook, etc.) as the money started wanting to buy what that real value had to offer.

I think it is fair to say since that peak we've seen more speculation than actual value creation, but that's why money is taking more interest in housing again. Still, the US is in a better place than many OCED countries with respect to housing thanks to still seeing some real value creation (and more of it, relatively speaking).
> with the former being more or less deprecated

Nah, it's not. That's just wishful thinking by Wayland acolytes.
One thing to understand is that, for home computers, the processing power was nearly free, but the storage (RAM and disk) were brutally expensive. An 8 or 16-bit home-computer from the early '80s could execute more instructions per second than a PDP-10 from 10-15 years ago, but had less RAM (Most 8-bit systems had no more than 64k, and the original IBM 5150 maxed out at 256k[1]) and was probably limited to a cassette or floppy disk for storage (no hard drive).

So when you see e.g. demos of SymbOS[2] running on an MSX2 (which at 1985 barely qualifies as "early 80s") with a 1MB ram expansion, it's not really the sort of thing that people would have had at home in the early 80s.

1: The PC was offered in configurations as low as 16k, models with less than 64k were fairly quickly discontinued.

2: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SymbOS
I think it is not 100% obvious if the question is actually about CS or coding. They say CS, but then ask about built in languages. Of course, CS advantages must have impacted language design, but a lot of it is just improving conventions, right?

Telegram is not a Russian controlled app. Durov had to flee from Russia after the Crimea invasion because he refused to mass spy on dissidens. If anything he has a good track of not cooperating with Putin.
A message to everyone: Thank you for your interest and comments and mails and votes and feedbacks. I am sorry the service was interrupted & down & I had to makeshift with ugly donation links in a ugly sidebar for hours, ect (I got 5€ donation! not crazy but it was actually useful)...

Anyway I managed to get it back running, and running strong! Mail me if you have nice words to say or if you think we can do partnerships. I received nice proposals already, which should improve the service significantly in the coming days. The goal is to entertain and educate, and as free as we can! haha, modestly. Thank you again for everything!
A kinder perspective: you only have one opportunity to prosecute, so you add all the charges you think might be relevant, and let the courts decide on guilt.

I’m sure that the intent is at least somewhat cynical in some (many? Most?) cases, but this serves a legitimate purpose.
Yes it is.

The pricing is manipulated though. If you’re part of RealPage, it will “recommend” the prices to set for your apartments, except you as the landlord are only allowed to disagree a small % of the time, or else you can get kicked out from the apartment mafia.

So to keep their customers happy, RealPage will configure it to keep increasing prices, and it’s not really in any landlords’ interest to disagree.

I live in a building managed by a group that uses RealPage. They keep increasing prices and say “Computer says this is $X, can’t do anything, sorry”.
If I were a pro-Ukraninian influencer, I'd want Russia to be reading a bunch of my messages. Probably not my private ones, but using the enemy's platform to distribute propaganda is a veritable goldmine.

Well, if you're communicating with someone on Signal and they indeed receive your messages, you're safe to assume they are the public key holder. The critical part is the secret key management. In other words, are they _the only_ ones who hold the secret key?

I suspect most tiling WM users don't either. I suspect most/all such WMs provide an option for this.

I can speak only for Awesome WM. You can configure it so that certain applications don't tile. So if you want your media player to always be in floating mode, simply add that entry to your config.

Alternatively, because you have multiple virtual workspaces, you can designate one or more of them to be in floating mode. Then every application in that workspace will be floating (i.e. you don't need to manually add them to your config).

You can with a keystroke switch a given workspace into floating vs tiling mode.

You can, with a keystroke, switch a given application into floating mode - even if the workspace is in tiling mode.

With Awesome, your virtual workspaces are not really workspaces, but "work configuration tags". So I can have Firefox in workspace 1, and xterm in workspace 2. In each one, they are maximized. Then if I ever need them in the same workspace, I can add both of them to workspace 3. So now:

Firefox is in both workspace 1 and workspace 3.
xterm is in both workspace 2 and workspace 3.

When I'm in workspace 1, I see only Firefox.
When I'm in workspace 2, I see only xterm.
When I'm in workspace 3, I see both (tiled).

There are plenty of options. For me, it's the rare exception when I don't want a window tiled. And with a quick keystroke I switch it to floating mode.

(For media players, I've configured them to always run full screen, so it doesn't matter how many other applications are tiled in that workspace).
