I wouldn't believe anything in this article.

But early 2022. I started hearing voices too. They all said horrible stuff.

They claimed that people close to me (family & friends) were planning to kill me & steal my crypto.

They also gave me "evidence" that proved my friend was a professional hitman.

Looking at extremely thin, starving Ethiopians on TV they said "Look! You going to look like that, we shall make sure of it, probably worse"

A bus getting a flat tire and people pulling out tools for changing tires was interpreted by the voices as "murder weapons for bludgeoning me to death"

Fortunately, I got in touch with a psychiatrist and he gave me a combination of pills & injections.

It took about 2 years for the voices to completely disappear.

This set me back so badly financially.

Luckily I now feel very normal and confident that I was 100% delusional. I am healthy now & slowly trying to get my life back together. (been off medication for like 1½ years now)

But here is my piece of advice (as a former victim).

If someone is "hearing voices".

Don't try to call them delusional or "bring them back to reality".

What you should do is listen to them & try to provide protection.

- if they feel like they are going to be poisoned by the waiter, cook for them

- if they feel like they are being stalked, offer protection etc

Normal people my claim that this "feeds" into their delusions. But at least it works in the short term to reduce the paranoia.

There is nothing worse than thinking your wife is going to stab you in your sleep and her trying to be around you longer that she usually does. She should send you pictures/video calls of her in another continent.

So as a previous victim here is a recommended approach.

- in the short term (show empathy)

- in the long term seek psychiatric assistance

How does Repaint handle responsiveness?

First you design your website for desktop. Then you make adjustments on different breakpoints. In design terms, Repaint uses autolayout and breakpoints.

I'm curious, why did you choose to go with desktop-first rather than mobile-first here? I'm not saying it's wrong. I'm mostly curious what the thought process was, because my very limited experience has been that mobile-first is a lot easier.

It's easy to go all out with a desktop design and discover it's not practical for a mobile view, nor is it easy to find ways to scale it down and have it make sense both aesthetically and technically for a smaller screen. On the other hand, it's not so difficult to start with limitations that can then scale out into something else as screen real estate allows.

Are these potential issues mitigated by how the tools allow you to layout and design things in Repaint?

Another thing, what are your plans around accessibility and semantics? How is the SEO for these sites? I noticed "Welcome to the Playground" in the playground is a p tag with an id. Almost everything is divs and p tags. Not to detract from what is clearly incredible software so far; you're all doing an awesome job. I'd be extremely happy with myself if I accomplished this.

edit: I ran a lighthouse test on the preview and I see the SEO and accessibility are higher than I expected. The performance score is excellent. The others aren't great, but they likely beat a lot stuff out there. I mean, visit any recipe website and weep for the modern internet.

edit edit: I'm realizing you could probably generate some decent document structure/semantics by having the user indicate the intent of some root items, like headers, subtitles, and sections. That's plenty to get some great meta and intent, right? You've got the hierarchy of the page, you can infer some info from properties of the containers and text, etc. There's a ton of potential to get excellent results here without too much knowledge or input from the users.

My totally unasked for suggestions:

- a section in the editor for adding these details
- components
I think you did the math wrong. The expected value for the guesser is $0.20 if Ballmer chooses randomly. I think Balmer is saying that he can beat you if he chooses adversarially and you choose the expected initial guesses.

I agree that if you choose your first guess somewhat randomly in the 40-60 range (maybe not a uniform distribution though) Balmer would be forced to choose randomly and you would be back at a positive $0.20 EV. For example, you could flip 6 coins and add the number of heads, then flip another coin to decide whether you add or subtract the number of heads from 50 for your starting guess. But I think you would need to randomize your later guesses a bit also.
There's an old theory that people with a certain genetic inheritance develop a developmental disability called "schizotaxia", people with this condition tend to develop a "schizotypal" personality organization because of negative social learning (often associated with bullying in school) and then some of those people (who may have additional adversities, e.g. a "second hit") go on to develop schizophrenia

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/16737381/

There is definitely such a thing as schizotypy but you've never heard of it because it is not as fashionable as autism and definitely not as fashionable as having autism and ADHD and dyslexia. Schizotypy may be behind this syndrome

https://www.amazon.com/Loners-Life-Path-Unusual-Children/dp/...

and may be the reason why I graduated from elementary school the way Ender Wiggin did. (People who noticed there's something a little odd about my HN posts are noticing I have just a touch of "thought disorder", which is much more fundamental, I think, to the schizophrenia spectrum than the auditory hallucinations that get talked about endlessly or the delusions which only troubled me once) So there's a grain of truth in the above comment.

I have often been appalled at how badly people on the schizophrenia spectrum get cared for.

Right now I have a friend who is almost certainly schizophrenic (no professional diagnosis) but doesn't believe she has a problem who lives with an elderly person who is a bit of a bleeding heart who's had a stroke and may have to evict her because he can't live with her anymore. She comes out to our place to visit but has a hard time staying more than 24 hours because cell phones don't work at our spot and she can't indulge in her pastime of blowing up people's phones. (e.g. she can easily leave 10+ messages in a few hours on our machine again) If she cooks she'll season our cast iron pans with 1/2 a cup of oil, won't believe that we're really going to eat all the apples we have on hand and will make apple cobbler as soon as we're not watching her)

Another friend had schizoaffective disorder (my diagnosis, she never got a professional diagnosis despite multiple hospitalizations) and had bad enough thought disorder that it would take her a few hours to smoke her first cigarette of the day despite being badly addicted to cigs. She lived with us for a year and a half until one night her dad tried to wake her up after she'd been awake for days and she freaked, threatened my wife with a knife, and then ran into the night. She took her own life a year and a half after that.

Because I am the way I am I find people like that easier to understand and live with than most people would, in fact on some level "normal" people seem stranger to me.
Another stupid gotcha:

Ballmer states the question as "I'm thinking of a number between 1 and 100." He does not state that the number is an integer. If he's thinking of anything other than an integer, you're unlikely to be successful in finding it via binary search.
Even getting beyond the title problems, and despite an interesting article, I doubt the discussion quality on HN would be particularly good. The topic tends to attract those who are the topic of the article itself :-/

You might want to email mods to see what their suggestions/views on this are.
Would it be crazy to make paying crypto ransoms a crime? I feel like it would help the situation, but I'm sure there is something I am overlooking.
Right. you're not paying to ship it to China, you're subsidizing a boat and containers that are going back empty (or not going back) otherwise.
Funny, 174 by me too.

> No support for ACPI sleep.

To be fair, these are meant for datacenter applications where it would be absolutely normal for these to be either fully on or off all of the time. You could make an argument for warm spare servers, but there's other ways to accomplish it than ACPI sleep, and I'd probably consider warm spares a relatively niche need, considering I'd rather leave them hot-but-outside-production for system monitoring purposes. Would be more annoying to wake a sleeping system and find it has a failing drive/RAM/NIC, bad switchport config, etc.

> No support for 4 and 3 pins fans. 3 pins are 100% speed all the time.

To be fair, these are meant for datacenter applications where it would be absolutely normal to run your fans at full speed all of the time.

> IPMI web interface straight out of 2010

Does it have HTML5 remote console, and basic component diagnostics? If so what else would you like? I've been a datacenter tech, a linux sysadmin, and a devops engineer, depending on the company for a decade now, and really only ever used IPMI for those two things so I'm curious where the other use cases are. I've also used Dell PowerEdge and HPE servers, which have slightly nicer looking UIs but perform the exact same functions more or less.
By default all texts are open. There is encrypted messaging, albeit only used for private messages inside a group or to another person.

What you mention could be achieved with the a nostr relay. Just permit inside who you want, but anyone can keep participating on internet at large with exactly the same account.

But if you want to moderate everything inside, then likely mastodon or a traditional web forum might be more suited.
Well, yeah, I don’t know what you expect me to say, it’s sloppy work.
We wrote an article to help people just learning about LLMs how they can evaluate their model.

I need to do some realtime stuff which involves some kind of realtime updates of some sort, I guess I can call `/api/call.sock` and it'll just work?

Oh, I'm also supporting streaming. Will `/api/call.rtmp` work for me?

What's worse, I even allow voice chat and video calls! I guess I can just do `/api/call.webrtc`?

I also forget that I serve a lot of P2P traffic, so I guess I can just add `api/call.udp` too.

The problem I have now is, how do I serve this over HTTPS? I can't pick the protocol because that'd be doing it wrong. Do I serve extra APIs like `call.rtmps`, `call.webrtcs`, `call.udps`?

I haven't even told you how fucking awkward it is to constantly enter my login details to work with my git repository and `github.com/my/repo.ssh` just gives me a 404.

APIs are a lot more than just content negotiation; the protocol is a necessary part of it and it just so happens with the web (not the internet) that the protocol is HTTP(S) over TCP and advances in technology have continued to stress its utility.

Hmm. I haven't actually used a Windows desktop for anything other than gaming in decades. Probably the last time I actually used my remapping tool on Windows was in the XP days. I guess it's possible that Windows 10+ now includes such functionality by default, but this would surprise me.
I read it as- there are psychopaths operating within and bizarre malicious ideas being propagated through those hobbies and mediums.

I'm inclined to agree, but I wouldn't single it out to any specific hobby, activity, forum, news-source- though some are definitely more prone to infestation.
> do you want every online business checking the passport of their customer?

Is the business selling to a EU citizen? If so they have to deal with the rights that citizen has.

If a company in some fictitious jurisdiction where fraud is not a crime defrauds an American citizen, should they not face American justice for it? It might be they don't have legal representation in the USA but that shouldn't stop an American citizen on bringing the issue to authorities to deal with.

It's not random, if you make business with someone in the EU or deal with the information of someone in the EU then you need to follow EU's regulations. Can't do that? Don't deal with EU's citizens data or business, it's pretty simple.

I really don't think this is a hard concept to grasp.

Is this standard? From my layman perspective, I would never pay a ransom because I can't see any possible assurance that they'll actually honor their end and/or quietly tampered/backdoored for future exploitation.

Is there a BBB for ransomware hackers that informs the insurance whether the deal will be honored?
I actually did work on account suspensions and abuse handling at Google, and after I left I visited Twitter and gave them a talk about bot fighting techniques, so yeah. I don't know these accounts specifically but have worked in that field and know the signs.
> there's been a huge shift from an attitude of "children, even other peoples' children, are our future so it's reasonable to tolerate some noise from them" to "children are a dirty loud nuisance that must be stopped"

Plenty of ancient civilisations treated children as glorified cattle. They weren’t expected to survive, so it wasn’t irrational. The notion of a babbling baby in the Roman Senate, a Victorian ball or Meiji Dai Shin’in is laughable.

We are more considerate of babies and parents than we’ve probably ever been as a society. That’s a good thing. But it’s also regularly abused, as anyone who has been on a plane with a child screaming for their iPad knows.
That’s the real, old school web, thx for the submission

EUCLEAK Side-Channel Attack on the YubiKey 5 Series

If it's a relative path, then changing the working directory will break (chdir("/") is a very common tactic at the top of main()).

It's possible/desirable for the parent to change the PATH of a child process, particularly one that spawns other processes. So the argv[0] used to spawn the original process may be garbage for spawning children.

Similarly in any kind of chroot jail (which may or may not be docker these days), relative paths and PATH can be garbage even if they don't change.

The real problem is that I've seen in-house and open source frameworks/libraries that have a function like `get_executable_path` that reads `argv[0]` and this is just incorrect behavior. Spawning yourself is one of the less risky things you can do, but there are gotchas and a way to avoid them!
I was going to say...

"I began to see TIs like Luca as a group of individuals who are caught between two competing narratives.... The second narrative – the TI narrative – is that if you’re having these sorts of experiences, nothing is wrong with your mind. Your perceptual and reasoning abilities are functioning exactly the way they’re designed to. Unfortunately, you are the victim of gang-stalking or electronic harassment. Despite your suffering, however, there is hope: you can band together with other TIs in a global movement to expose your attackers and dismantle their techniques."

This isn't a value-neutral belief. It has consequences and some of those aren't pretty.
Over $32m in investments sitting in ARRL's coffers. No wonder they figured they could go for broke on a ransom demand and hope for the payout.

https://www.arrl.org/files/file/About%20ARRL/Annual%20Report... - pg 44(ish)
Yes. Make any mistakes you want - just apologize or go to rehab, all is well.
Paying the ransom is already illegal in a lot of conditions and interpretations but I don't think it's ever actually been enforced.
What reasons are those?

Humans are evolutionarily evolved to listen to babies. It makes even quiet noises annoying.

Natural Piezoelectric Effect May Build Gold Deposits
Show HN: Sustainable iPhone Memberships
Hi HN,

I’m a co-founder of a service that offers gently-used, previous-gen iPhones + benefits on a subscription basis. Our goal is to offer a sustainable alternative to the normal upgrade cycle by extending the life of the devices we already have. We call it Afterlife.

We’re pre-customers and would love feedback on our v1 site.

Backstory: My co-founder runs a company that recycles corporate IT assets. He hit me up after seeing plenty of consumer products in great condition come through the doors, destined for recycling. We agreed that the most sustainable thing to do wasn’t to recycle them, but put them in hands of people that could use them to their fullest first. So we’re experimenting with iPhones.

The Problem: E-waste is a big side effect of the hardware innovations we’ve gone through in the last few decades, and iPhone innovation has plateaued over the last few models. I question whether AI on our iPhones is necessary for all, or if AI will actually help us get stuff done faster and decrease screen-time. TBD.

Offering: Afterlife provides previous-gen iPhones through a monthly membership, including a lifetime warranty, free rolling upgrades, and an optional protection plan. No long-term contracts or down payments. We also take steps to mitigate fraud by requiring a valid ID that matches the shipping address.

Memberships: Our model ensures that when a phone is returned—whether for a fix, upgrade, or cancellation—we refurbish it and keep it out of landfills. We send full replacements out to decrease downtime, rather than having to wait for repair. The longer you stick with your current phone, the lower your monthly fee.

Feedback: We’d love your thoughts/questions/feedback on the project. Currently up and running on Shopify, making the most of their limited subscription functionality.

Looking forward reading and learning, cheers.
You have to practically destroy the YubiKey in the process of extracting the secret, however.
It's not about the age of the individual trees but the overall forest since it was last disturbed by humans (on a large scale like logging or agriculture).

Age matters because there are several "thresholds" during which the diversity of species significantly increases and that starts with the older trees falling and decomposing. The conifers in the PNW take anywhere from 50-150 years to decompose before they start breaking apart and littering the forest floor. Once the first generation of trees is broken up and spread around by the wildlife and the fungi species are fully established, the growth of third/fourth/fifth generation of trees and plants become a lot more vigorous. When the second and third generation of trees start falling, they end up creating the dense habitats that supports large food webs from the rodents on up. All the while, the tree roots pull nutrients from deeper and deeper in the earth, allowing the rain and cold to build up a layer of peat on the forest floor that cycles and stores the nutrients, improving the quality of the dirt.

It just takes a while for all these processes to build up.
What sort of substances end up in leachate, and how'd that contribute to greater CH4 production in your landfill? I was hoping that the OP post/video went into more detail on the chemistry involved.

Some are; not "watching Friends" but many TV programs model and demonstrate mentally unstable behaviors, and role-players play characters, usually not themselves, and the epithet "murder hobo" is not inaccurate.

Yes, many bizarre and malicious ideas have been introduced to me and my classmates through Nethack play and merely observing role-players going at it in a violent, dangerous fantasy world of their own design.

For autists and others who find it difficult to separate fantasy/reality, or understand metaphor and allegory, we tend to mistakenly impose fantastic ideas upon the mundane world around us.

Migration to Yubico’s own cryptographic library that performs the underlying cryptographic operations (decryption, signing, etc.) for RSA and ECC

Hopefully they've had lots of eyes looking at that ! Not sure why anybody feels the need to write their own crypto libraries these days, there are so many implementations out there, both open and closed source.

It creates additional conditions for blackmail of the target. Some would pay, and then could be induced into future payments because they can now be leveraged for having committed a criminal offense.

A better law would be one that requires institutions above a certain size to create backups every 24hrs and maintain basic security practices to prevent this sort of thing.
