It's been used in Australia for decades, for public health monitoring (various pathogens) and estimating drug use etc.

It can be refined to "upstream of collection point" - what that means depends upon the wastewater sewerage map of the region in question, often estate developments will all pipe to a common outflow from that estate that then joins a larger wastepipe.

How that plays out in any specific city will depend on the utility map.

People visiting HN are looking for interesting bits of things to discuss and move on quickly if they do not hold their interest. If they have to context switch into video watching this detracts from their purpose of being here on this text-only site. I link to videos I think people may find interesting to talk about even if I suspect it is unlikely to start a conversation. To help them decide if I might be wasting their time I not only list [video] in the title but I also list [hours/mins] so they might give it a chance or know to skip it all together. I would honestly never expect anyone to upvote a video even if it is interesting to them as they have been diverted to Youtube and may be further distracted from returning as videos take more time than a quick scan over a text article.
yes, privacy is not an individual problem; it's a civil defense problem, and not just when your opponent is a nation-state. we already saw this in 02015 during the daesh capture of mosul; here's the entry from my bookmarks file:

https://www.facebook.com/dwight.crow/media_set?set=a.1010475... “#Weaponry and morale determine outcomes. The 2nd largest city of Iraq (Mosul) fell when 1k ISIS fighters attacked “60k” Iraqi army. 40k soldiers were artifacts of embezzlement, and of 20k real only 1.5k fought - these mostly the AK47 armed local police. An AK47 loses to a 12.7mm machine gun and armored suicide vehicle bombs. Finally, the attack was personal - soldiers received calls mid-fight threatening relatives by name and address. One army captain did not leave quickly enough and had two teenage sons executed.” #violence #Iraq #daesh

of course the americans used this kind of personalized approach extensively in afghanistan, and the israelis are using it today in lebanon and gaza, and while it hasn't been as successful as they hoped in gaza, hamas doesn't exactly seem to be winning either. it's an asymmetric weapon which will cripple "developed" countries with their extensive databases of personal information

why would a politician go to war in the first place if the adversary has the photos and imeis of their spouse, siblings, and children, so they have a good chance of knowing where they are at all times, and the politician can't hope to protect them all from targeted assassination?

the policy changes needed to defend against this kind of attack are far too extreme to be politically viable. they need to be effective at preventing the mere existence of databases like facebook's social graph and 'the work number', even in the hands of the government. many more digital pearl harbors like the one we saw this week in lebanon will therefore ensue; countries with facebook, credit bureaus, and national identity cards are inevitably defenseless

imposing liability on companies whose data is stolen is a completely ineffective measure. first, there's no point in punishing people for things they can't prevent; databases are going to get stolen if they're in a computer. second, the damage done even at a personal level can vastly exceed the recoverable assets of the company that accumulated the database. third, if a company's database leaking got your government overthrown by the zetas or daesh, what court are you going to sue the company in? one operated by the new government?
This. Plus I don't want to pollute my viewing history, so either have to tell YouTube to forget about it or watch in Incognito mode with its slow loading and low bitrate.
You keep mentioning that other attack but how many children has israel killed in gaza? This line of escalation has no reasonable end, everything is justified using it.
When I first got my M1 mac, optimized charging worked OK. Eventually it would settle at 80%. But since macOS 14.6-15.0, it's always charging to 100% and staying there no matter what.

Minus the AI part tools like this have existed for decades.

And companies are not dumping their SaaS tools and switching to them en masse.

Because (a) data silos have dramatically increased pushing dreams of a unified data schema out of reach, (b) technology stacks have become far more complex necessitating tools like Datadog and (c) competition is stronger than ever meaning that skimping on paying for tools like MixPanel is often short sighted and counter productive.

Companies like this will do fine and there will be always be a demand for them especially in the SMB space. But there simply isn't the business value in bringing a lot of analytics and observability in-house in almost all cases.
Yeah. There’s Jamf and similar tools. Companies often block major updates until their 100 agents all officially support it. Oh, and do cool things like not letting you change your background or whatever random settings some admin decides are good.

Well, sure, but "get to" is doing a lot of work in that sentence. It's just wealth. Your complaint isn't about the "gig", it's about the wealth. People can hold wealth in any of a zillion ways, most of which are invisible (c.f. Vanguard accounts, BTC, yada yada). Don't be upset with your landlord just because you can see their assets.
Municipal water systems have a "sanitary sewer" line in addition to a stormwater line. I've no idea how this method of virus testing works, but I beleive you would take samples from the sanitary sewer.
Millenia.

They’ve been at this since biblical times.

This is an ongoing culture war like Sunni vs Shia or Protestant vs Catholic.

The original people involved in the fight are long dead from old age, replaced by generation after generation claiming to be the victim (on both sides, of course).

This is why it’s best to stay out of it and watch from a safe distance. There is no right or wrong, good vs evil, victim and oppressor. It’s A vs B, cats vs dogs, my sports team vs your sports team.

Israel happens to have the technological edge at the moment, but that’s after a couple of thousand years of being a powerless diaspora victim to oppression and actual genocide.

Conversely, their opponents cry victim while we all full well know that if they got the military upper hand they’d do to the Israelis the same or worse.

It’s depressing to see this from the outside, watching the long term damage wrought by what amounts to mind viruses.

That’s all religions are: particularly addictive memes. Memes that kill hosts to protect themselves from other memes.

The new scanners take a CT scan [1]. Airtightness is irrelevant. It's not foolproof, largely because we man the scanners with idiots [2]. But it would be detectable and, particularly after the element of surprise has been lifted, likely to be caught.

Interestingly, "Lebanon has one of the highest number of computed tomography (CT) scanners per capita in the world" [3]. Hezbollah being Hezbollah, they could repurpose these from healthcare.

I was a business developer for 20 years, and it was awesome. Mostly worked 40 hour days, my work load was predictable, I had time to constantly hone my skills, and the best of all, I was doing what I loved.

Five years ago I transitioned by accident to an executive position in cybersecurity, mostly because of my emphasis in secure development, and the recent creation of the area. IT security always has been my second love, but becoming a manager took a lot of the innocence that let me sleep like a baby every night.

I'm not complaining, I had to learn many skills, took very different challenges, and while I barely code anymore, I've both suffered and enjoyed the journey and the personal growth. Nevertheless, some days I still miss having way less responsibilities, and a more peaceful life.

I guess my point is, OP should do what he thinks is better for him while he can get away with it. If OP honestly believes his happiness is staying a senior forever, more power to him. In my case I wanted the challenge before the opportunity passed me.
But you can do that with IPV6? I have both an IPV4 and IPV6 address on this very device.

My confusion in the claims that we could do it differently is how the protocol could be updated without actually doing the work of updating everything on the network and adding the new address scheme.
> D3D is clearly more integrated into the OS than Vulkan is.

sure, but addressing the two points that you brought up would not entail changing windows _the operating system_, just the stuff that ships with it. you could easily ship swift shader along with warp and the loader library, both of those are just some application libraries as far as the os/kernel is concerned. of course now we're in the territory of arguing about "what constitutes an OS" :-)
These are great. Having tooling to get stuff out fast and as safely as possible to get to iterating openly.

Here’s a bash script I posted a while back on a different thread that does similar thing if of interest for anyone. It’s probably less nice than op’s for ex it only works with digitalocean (which is great!) - but it’s simple small and mostly readable. also assumes docker - but all via compose, with some samples like nginx w auto-ssl via le.

See also effectiveness vs efficacy. If condoms are 100% effective but used incorrectly 20% of the time, they have 80% efficacy. It’s a useful stat when determining where to best allocate funds, but not for individual healthcare decisions.
You are not sane

The problem with reviews from individuals (trusted friends or complete strangers), is that for major purposes they only get to deeply evaluate a single product. So they could tell you if they are happy with the fridge they bought, but they wouldn’t be able to do a detailed comparison between multiple fridges.

This will lead to you getting a product that’s good enough, but there may be a superior quality/value option that you don’t know about
You couldn't do this with current chips I don't think, but if you had at least 256 bytes of randomness on the chip, you could.

The simplest way to do this would be to use the random data for an EC25519 private key, which would be used to encrypt the data[1] and then sign the encrypted blob plus an unencrypted timestamp. The registry would be a mapping of public keys to encrypted records. Updates could be accomplished by sending a record with a greater timestamp, which would then be propagated to other nodes.

You could also put a DHT on top of that to minimize storage requirements, perhaps also a PoW scheme for sibil resistance.

[1] EC doesn't technically do encryption, but that can be worked around by attaching a public key for an ephemeral keypair for your message, doing a DH against the two keypairs, and using the resulting secret as a key for symmetric encryption.
IRC and (early versions of) MSNP are far simpler and more efficient.
Any time I hear an American talk about US taxes they sound like it's a major pain in their backside though.

I just fill "Overseas Income: $xxxxx in xxxxx" and my tax report rolls out as €0 every single year. Because I've already paid my taxes in the country I'm living.

I can also do this without any specialized software or accountants, which seems to be something kind of iffy in the US.
As amazing as saying that might make you feel, the people who make Firefox are not the people doing these things to Mozilla employees. Not to mention that your alternatives are Google, or reskinned Google, so really the choice should be "I'm going to keep using Firefox, and yell about Mozilla needing to fire their execs and replace them with people who actually care again".

Is anyone deploying GraphRAG in prod?
I've been seeing a lot of buzz around GraphRAG and its potential, but many implementations seem to encounter issues, often with Neo4j. Has anyone managed to set up a reliable and cost-effective GraphRAG system in production? I'm curious about real-world experiences and practical solutions.

B could port forward (as in route packets?) to C, but I don't think there are any HTTP Permanent Redirect equivalents, no.

Maybe you can explain the problem more and perhaps there's a more suitable solution?

If you have a host that's somewhat embedded, you can have DNS handle the "routing" for you. You will have to handle fingerprint verification.

It would be misleading if A doesn't know that the real target is C.

Otherwise you can use jump functionality

From A:

ssh -J B C

If B doesn't need to be part of the path, just connect to C directly if it's doable. If it's not, then B will have to be a hop either way.

Agreed. Mid-sized/smaller players are the places which have very poor data & security practices. Especially when they require PII as part of their operations.

Meta, Google are much better stewards of their users data. One misconception I see is claiming these companies sell user data. I'd instead say that they sell user attention.
I love the extra detail in the visualizations. My wish is for networking to have much more visual representation of traffic, especially at lower level connections.

Vulkan is not a well designed API. It's so complicated, verbose, and error prone. It's pretty bad.

For anyone wondering, OSHA would tell you to use safety glasses and a face shield. Neither is sufficient protection alone.

Congrats on the launch! It's been great working with you from the Daft side
Agreed. That is the goal. The lessons of history are abundant, but many people don't seem to be able to heed them.
I use it for proxying general internet traffic (such as from your web browser) using the SOCKS5 proxy described in the article. Combined with FoxyProxy or similar it's nice if you want certain traffic (such as to a certain domain which only allows certain IP blocks) to flow from a certain host based on things like the domain.
In this case Vulkan is the only option. DX12 is a non starter since it was never intended to be universally available.
You've definitely got an interesting view point and I appreciate your take as a stakeholder.

To address the first point, I had to look up tortious interference haha but after seeing the main elements, I don't think we'd be close to meeting that threshold. Mainly because:

1. Offering a service which is then engaged with by a end user != Convincing/Interrupting/Interfering
2. We don't ever know the internet contracts they've signed + I actually don't know whether AUP prohibit this kind of activity (I don't think its common, at least in the UK, from my knowledge)
3. I think most ISPs would be hard stretched to provide any material damage

To your second point, since you're a smaller ISP I can understand your position somewhat and my original post was more to do with the big players; we have a lot of experience with large ISPs and they tend to be happy to lease IP space / IP transit if the price is right.

As someone that knows the space very well, I also think the risks here are pretty overstated and subnet bans are incredibly rare and usually caused by activity en masse across an entire block. The likelihood that every single one / or most of your customers would be web-scraping with their IP address is pretty much zero. I guess the effect of activity also depends a lot on what activity it is and how the network is ran - we're very strict on the traffic that can go through the network and everything high-risk is blocked i.e government, edu, banking and extra-extra-bad stuff to avoid issues; I concede that if the company running the network is allowing mailing and everything else under the sun it would have a larger effect on stakeholders such as yourself but I think to broadly say web-scraping on a small portion of IPs on an AS ends in the ISP having to purchase new prefixes is a stretch and hypothetical. If you do actually have experience and have had to purchase new subnets in the past because of this stuff then I'd definitely be interested to hear more (tim@pingproxies.com) and I'd be happy to remove any IPs from your AS if they're present in our network.

Cheers,
Tim at Ping
Yes some integrations are excellent (hey Stripe : ), some are terrible (no comment on who). We're finding that LLMs increasingly able to fill the gap around organizing data schema for that initial data prep piece where someone has to build the data tables that others consume. To your specific question/problem set, when a schema updates you end up with a "fuzzy schema matching problem"; we are solving that separately anyways for a separate product feature requirement.

Strong note here that the current state of technology is much better for SMB scale data and not enterprise scale data with messy schemas.
Excel is great until it you need to do something that takes up more space than a single screen. Then it isn't.

Nope. AI will not push the envelope in any way. People will still have to do that, because people are the only entities that care about these things, and "care" is not only fundamentally motivating but fundamentally measuring.

Australia replaced thousands of tax code rules with a simple goods & services tax (GST), which is like a VAT. It noticeably improved the economy by reducing paperwork and overheads, especially for small to medium business.

We need more of this kind of thinking from governments instead of just layering more and more paperwork on top of existing paperwork!
I mean, you'd eliminate the rental market entirely, meaning that the only way to live anywhere is to buy.

That would be utterly disastrous. Homelessness would skyrocket. I mean, where are people who can't afford a down payment going to live?

Also, a lot of people don't want to buy, even if they can. If you know you're going to live in a city for a two-year employment contract before moving again, you want to rent.
A scenario where FM broadcasting is somehow unavailable, but AM is available, is not an event; it’s geography. There are vast stretches of highway in the U.S. that lack FM service, but you usually can receive groundwave AM service. At night, skywave AM service is accessible.
