What constitutes "taking the hostage takers' side"? She's not begging that the police release the perps, she's not saying that they were within their rights to rob the bank or anything like that. It's more complicated than just "she is taking the police's side" vs "she is taking the perps' side".

Which black market? Who is buying it? The reason they quote such a huge range of prices is that there is a huge range of utility across different exploits, and many of them aren't worth much at all, including some that seem ultra-powerful on the tin.

Keep in mind also that the economics of bug bounties are different than those of the "black market". Bounties quote lower prices because they're offering assured payouts, often with lower exploit proof and enablement requirements. They're not actually apples and oranges.
> "Women are oppressed in Iran. Well, that's just how Iran is. Just leave it if you don't want to be oppressed" Yea, and whatever is some way, is that way – "it is how it is, deal with it". It's an empty statement.

No, because Iran can stop oppressing women and still exist as a functional country. oppressing women today is "how it is". The internet on the other hand is designed to be a system for the distribution of copies. That isn't "how it is", but rather "what it is".

The internet cannot do anything except distribute copies and anything that doesn't distribute copies wouldn't be the internet.

> Sounds like you haven't heard of private messages.

Private messages are also not what is being discussed here. The comment being discussed said: "I don't agree because it creates this dilemma for creators: you need to put your work out there to get traction, but if you put your work out there and anything public is fair game, then it will be sampled by a computer and instantly recreated at scale."

"anything public". For what it's worth though, private messages are still copies.

> I'm not a sailor, but doesn't this rely on the force of water on the keel, to avoid being pushed laterally?

The analogy with sailing is actually kind of weak.

Since you get elastic collisions with photons on the sail, you can (approach) applying force at 90 degrees from the direction of the light. Unlike with actual sailing, you can never have an "upwind" force component.
Hey HN,

After seeing tons of those "Reddit Story" style videos show up on social media, my friend and I decided to build a tool that automates the creation of them.

It's a paid tool but you can try it out for free if you join our Discord.

My friend builds other things for the web and you can read more about how we made StoryTok — torresjuan.com

Kudos for the wonderful onboarding tutorial. I appreciate that it was a 100% demonstrative process.
>It's... really not. Despite what some people seem to think, most of the 3 billion+ Facebook users are normal people who aren't just posting nonsense or memes.

Most users also don't post much.

As a student I've been researching the use of AI for various tasks and have come to the initial conclusion that AI improves quantity but not quality such that a student is almost always better off spending an extra 30-60 minutes producing materials themselves.

A lot of tasks like note taking are essential to knowledge retention such that even supplementing notes with AI generated summaries creates clear tradeoffs that personally I choose to avoid.

I'm more curious in AI use by teachers to produce better media for student consumption, paired with tools like Figma, Adobe, Microsoft office, and other tools. In my experience teachers are forced to produce a lot of content, akin to content creators, without the proper incentives, quality controls, or training. I think AI can help there.

I think when paired with great tools, like Figma, then the quality/quantity trade-off of AI is changed. Perhaps there is a lesson there that can eventually be realized by students, but I haven't seen it yet.
And somehow I feel these cloud native services keep breaking. Again Azure Container Instances found a interesting new way to fail. I have to check on Monday is it still in booting itself more often than usual(dev environment so have not tried any fixes)...

While the VMs that run some parts of the system have been rock solid giving zero issues... Should have just thrown the stuff on one of them or added third one. Cost would have been same.
this is very shallow and starts with the premise that people are stupid, or that objective truth comes from the sky. It doesn't, it used to be (free) speech before it became consensus. The question of whether consensus should be challenged is a can of worms where societies differentiate themselves. Some are keen to protect the consensus above all, some others prefer having a system that is robust to consensus being challenged (america).

The internet has changed these old questions very little . It's just a new medium with same old social problems
so what's been added since that i would want?
> Why MACSEC isn't the default

TFA explains it pretty well. Also every encryption is adding the load and latency, so defaulting to it when it wasn't asked for isn't the best way

Because IPSec is still PITA and also sucks bad performance wise against WG.

It's syntactic sugar for try/catch blocks. No new functionality.

Try/catch and exceptions seem to be tough for programmers to handle. You have to have disciplined unwinding for exception propagation to work well when an unwind goes through multiple calls.

Rust's rather simple "?" operator, which I once thought was underpowered, seems to be a workable solution. It's just syntactic sugar for return on error, but because there's a standard error trait, that usually works out well.

The lesson from this is to get your error objects right early in the history of a language, because you can't retrofit them. Once you have that right, how to report errors becomes sane, and the mechanism becomes less important.
Things are a bit sketchy at the moment. Had a recent get-together including a former co-worker who was an obvious hire-this-person. They got hit in a layoff and they're still essentially out of work after a year.
ayy thats me lmao
I went to the University of Illinois. That’s a solid tech school pretty much across the board, often cracking the top five in a number of subjects, including CS.

But the real secret of that school was that, at least when I was there, they had too much computer hardware for the number of students.

The number of hours in a day you could show up in a lab and not have a waitlist was fairly generous. Which meant a lot of the smarter students had no problem working on their own pet projects.

From a “hit the ground running” standpoint, a lot of these kids were only bothering with a 3.3-3.9 GPA because time spent getting three more points on a test or homework was time lost from working on your project, or talking to people about theirs.
You, yourself, might just be different/lucky then :) Or you could just be typical here. The average HN user is probably not representative of the average person in the overall population. It's a self-selecting crowd of nerds, many of whom aren't all that interested in more worldly topics. (Nothing wrong with that, mind you. It's part of the reason I'm here and not on mainstream social media.)

But out in the greater society, people get all worked up about those other topics, and will go protest in the streets, blockade representatives' houses, send death threats, rage endlessly online, attempt assassinations, go on shooting sprees, etc. Those things are usually triggered by some emotional attachment to some tribal identity and anger towards some out-group.

In a monoculture like this, we're mostly peers. Yeah, we might disagree about some particular things, but there's less of an "us vs them" mindset as you see politics, geopolitics, values-based communities, etc.

Discussions of technical merit, even when heated, thankfully don't reach those emotional heights quite as often. In my experience, at least...

Lots of comments on this thread about bounty payouts. If a tech giant with a standing bounty program isn't paying a bounty, the odds are very strong that there's a good reason for that. All of the incentives for these programs are to award bounties to legitimate submissions. This is a rare case where incentives actually align pretty nicely: companies stand up bounty programs to incentivize specific kinds of research; not paying out legitimate bounties works against that goal. Nobody on the vendor side is spending their own money. The sums involved are not meaningful to the company. Generally, the team members running the program are actually incentivized to pay out more bounties, not less.
I thought one of the reasons to bring Apple Silicon to Mac was that all the iPhone games can now be easily ported?
I thought I had hearing loss. I don't. I have Audio Processing Disorder. When I found out about APD and read its symptom list, I cried. It's me, all over. Between that and ADHD I now understand how my brain processes (or doesn't process) sound properly and why even a well intentioned (but clueless) audiologist told me I had "selective hearing".
Meh. Then free speech has never existed anywhere in any form because at the very least, people regulate themselves.

Considering it's a really old and wide shield volcano, the limiting factor can't be the 'climb' so to speak. Surely it's traction so perhaps lower gravity is worse? On the other hand you _can_ bound up it. Still, I can't help but think we'd be traction limited in some sense. Usain Bolt would probably be about the same time considering he can't push down enough, I imagine. Would be cool to estimate.
I'm still wondering why so many people are so much heavier now than they were fifty years ago and why instead of attempting to medicate our way out of the problem we don't try to attack the actual cause.
You're probably not out-of-luck. Just buy a heat element designed for your grid's voltage. The electronics' internal PSU might already be capable having a wide range input.

Besides that, I would absolutely not recommend you buy this.

Reason: the parent commenter already hinted in the right direction. The E61 brew group is ancient (invented in 1961 by Faema in Italy, hence the name), it sports 4kg of brass and many moving parts (3 valves, camshaft + lever) and features an analog pre brew chamber.

I do restore italian espresso machines for a hobby and have come to the same conclusion as the parent. Even if they're not maintained properly those things are meant to last and can in most cases be resurrected. Most spare parts are readily available and defacto industry standard (eg. The Brasilia ring brew head) and you can retrofit nice electronics easily (eg. clever coffee or the gaggiuino foss controller project featuring pressure transducers, pid controller(s) and a controllable Flow/Pressure rate, profiles, apps and so on).

This diy project is imho bland and uses the most ancient brew head available, with unnecessary heat dissipation, long warmup times and probably leaded brass...
I want to see any indication that abundance form AI would benefit man kind first.

While I would love Star Trek society has been going very much towards Cyberpunk aesthetic aka "the rich hold all the power".

To be precise AI models fundamentally need content to survive but they need so much content there is no price that makes sense.

Allowing AI to monetize without enriching the people who allowed it to exist isn't a good path forward.

And to be clear I do not believe there is a fundamental rift here. Shorten copyright to something reasonable like 20 years and in a decade AI will have access to all of the data it needs guilt free.
Can you use them as hearing aids without an iPhone?
I think the question is what is included in the "public sphere".

If I'm a Facebook user, I definitely don't see posts that I meant to share among friends as something that should be considered part of the public sphere.
As a single user, it doesn’t really, but as a SaaS operator I want tractable, hopefully predictable pricing.

I wouldn’t just implicitly trust a vendor when they say “yeah we’re just going to charge you for what we feel like when we feel like. You can trust us.”

Yeah, that editorializing really stood out to me as though they were just hunting for some criticism.
It just makes everything more realistic :D
We're going to need to medicate our way of the problem while waiting for a public healthy policy that actually works.

It's not like we didn't try, but what we tried didn't work and never really iterated toward something that works.
I don't, because I find the premise that the American military industrial complex actually has to justify itself or restrain itself to a "budget" that is anything but political theatre to be comical. If the US really wants something done, it just does it. The concept of needing "money" to "pay for" things is just a formality when you're a superpower and empire controlling the world's reserve currency, and you have black budgets that trillions of dollars just disappear into and you don't even care enough to keep track of it because war machine just go brr.

You've cut the quote out of context and as such missed what is being said. It might help to rephrase the quoted sentence: when an older patient stops weight-loss treatment, on average they regained the fat, but didn't recover the bone and muscle. The point isn't about what's possible, it's about real outcomes that happened. The older you get, the less your body responds to resistance training.

The problem is that the "competition" aspect assumes low barriers to entry. We're not talking about the corner diner or a bank or even a large insurance company. There's very little substitute for what Boeing does, and the barriers to entry for new competition are (quite literally?) astronomical. Boeing can't just be replaced; even to allow it to fail would be a major problem for the western economy.
I know this is taboo knowledge on the Internet, but other countries exist too!

And on a more serious note, banks have a lot of explicit and implicit lock-in power. Switching is a an annoying process, you might have loans or multi-year deposits with your bank that mean you can't just close your account...
After the age of 50, there's a marked and steady yearly loss of muscle mass. This is a huge driver of morbidity in older folks. This has been studied extensively and isn't particularly controversial. [1]

I would expect the proportion of people > 50 that perform resistance based weight training to be small. Adding a drug that diminishes your muscle mass when you can least afford to lose it sounds like it could be terrible for that aging population.

The states have a lot of leeway in how they run things, the federal government is there to make sure the system stays in some sort of accord.

They do this by offering emergency relief funds for natural disasters, interstate highways for trade and economy, and all manner of things.

I think a federal minimum wage makes sense in this system, ensuring that the people of Tishomingo, Mississippi have the same fundamental buying power as the people to Los Angeles, California instead of them earning $1 an hour because it's comparatively cheaper to live in Tishomingo.

Raising the federal minimum wage is also a good way to decrease old debt, deflate the value of stagnant money (increasing the likelihood that the money moves, improving the economy) and to temporarily boost the financial status of the poorest and most disaffected.

In an age where no one working minimum wage can afford the cheapest 1 bedroom apartment without an extraordinary stroke of luck or some sort of financial dispensation, someone needs to do something and it needs to come from on high.
I have actually done construction like work, and I have been a delivery driver (not bus driver though). Those don't even compare relative to the stress of a high paced kitchen. And yeah, when a tech stack goes down, that is stressful for sure, but again, that happens like once in a blue moon and lasts a short amount of time. I've have never had a 60 hour emergency work week in tech lol. This was every single week in the high end restaurant industry, for no pay on top of that.

I didn't even include the stressors involved in wondering if your pay was even going to cover your bills for the month, or stressing if the restaurant was just going to close its doors on you overnight. Never heard of a tech or construction company doing that, it happens all the time in restaurants. And I was specifically talking about my time in actual restaurants, not fast food chains or fast casual. I can't speak to them. I am talking white chef coat, table cloth with reservations type of restaurants.

I'm not arguing that tech work can't be stressful or hard (or any other job), from a skill level the tech work is much more difficult. But you asked if a the high stress stereotypes are true, and as someone that has worked in around dozen different industries over the years, restaurant work is far and away the most stressful of the bunch, it's not even remotely close. Not arguing that it should be that way, but it certainly is.
2031 is when it becomes entirely (in the US) unencumbered by patents for its use in weight loss according to Wikipedia.

The initial patents seem to date to ~2008 which means that as of 2028 the synthesis will be free of patents, but you won't be able to market a generic for weight loss until the non-exclusivity period ends. [1]

There are already "compounding" pharmacies in the US that sell it cheaper; I can't seem to find a straight answer on what the hell this means though.

[1] https://www.fda.gov/drugs/development-approval-process-drugs... if you're interested in the FDA's summary -- I found this to be almost entirely useless though.
Because we don't know why. We have many suspects, but no concrete evidence for any of those, and in many cases, not even clear mitigations. (Let's pretend for a moment it's e.g. all about PFAS, what do you actually do about them? And what do you do once there's the inevitable political outcry that it's just spoilsports from the other side trying to ruin your life?)

And so we medicate, because that's the only thing where people can say "my neighbor did it, and look, it worked for them, I'll do it too".
Oh yeah, books are a great example here.

Superhot is one of the games that most impressed me in VR. And then I looked up how well it sold in non-VR versions. At first that seemed wrong to me, but the more I thought about it, them more it made sense.
It works on short timescales but discipline has almost zero correlation with long term (5+ years) weight loss.

Drugs, bariatric surgery, and even techniques / lifestyle change make a difference. Discipline alone gets eroded by various hormonal systems aiming to return lost weight.
