Several of those ideologies you mention are just different flavors of authoritarianism, and one of an ideological authoritarian's primary goals is power. Hell, take out "anarchist" and you could make a convincing argument they're all authoritarians in their own way. You don't get power by giving the populace - or helping them to keep - a free, secure Internet. It's just completely antithetical to someone who wants to hold power by nondemocratic means.
I said as soon as criminals figure it out. They don't know people sitting alone in the back of parking lots can't even drive away without getting out first.

It also took them a few years to figure out they could steal the cables. At first they probably thought they were live.
The latest (series 9) Apple Watch has (up to) 2 GB of RAM and can do billions of instructions per second.

In 1966, the mainframe to use was the CDC 6600,
able to do ~3 million instructions per second (MIPS), with kilobytes, possibly a megabyte of RAM. The US government had a good number of mainframes, of a wide variety, but they wouldn't be able to reach the Apple Watch's computing power.

That's really cool. I have bags of their skeletons that are about 13 million years old that I used for pest control. I never really gave it much thought what they looked liked until seeing your site. All the drawings of them I've seen prior were black and white and just showed some shapes but no color.

As far as Smart Homes are concerned, every manufacturer wants to "own" the space and refuses to cooperate with anyone else. It's a consumer nightmare and the libertarians' claim that the market will swoop in and solve all these problems have failed to materialize.
Considering multiple world governments have already shown in leaked documents that this is exactly what they do, I personally wouldn't trust my secrets with tor.

Interesting recommendation; I never came across it before! Is it sold in stores?

I bought a bulk order of the “real” original pinesol (the formula where they were still using pine tree oil) from their website ehen they reintroduced it for a retro launch a few years ago, but will consider this when my supply runs out. How does it smell?
Yeah. Now they are pairing with a chatbot.
Seems like the article is making fun of these claims more than anything.

> The plurality of worlds debates provided wonderful opportunities to make definitive pronouncements without the inconvenience of providing solid evidence: after all, it was impossible to be proved wrong.
No idea if his reaction is exaggerated, but it was really fun to watch!
> but it seems like those who get the most benefit from free labor are large corporations.

I feel one thing to remember on this front is that large corporations will ALWAYS get the most benefit out of open source / “free labor”, simply because they have the ability to bring massive amounts of resources to bear on using that open source product towards their own ends. Consider the world of hardware emulation. Sure the community has benefited massively from the efforts poured into reverse engineering and understanding old systems and games and preserving what was there. And the big corporations reap huge benefits in the form of continuing nostalgia, awareness of their back catalog of IP, test markets and information about the viability of re-releases and in some cases the licensing (or outright theft) of emulators and emulator code for selling their own retro consoles.

Burn out is absolutely a concern, and the approach of some open source devs (like IIRC the curl dev) of essentially “f you, pay me” to support requests is probably an important thing to have. But for me as an individual, the fact that Atari’s current owners have reaped massive rewards from the fact that the emulation scene keeps their brand alive means nothing to me. I’d rather have the world we have were things are open and the community is there, than one were emulation is closed and insular and getting into it is even harder than it already is just to keep Atari from “winning” the most. And selfishly part of that is because Atari winning also benefits me. Their re-releases and re-masters and dumping of money into manufacturing by hardware retro clones puts money into the market, gives new hardware to tinker with or build on. And their dependence on the open efforts of the community also means bending that hardware to my own needs is much easier than if they had for example just rolled out a bunch of new proprietary SoCs to replace the old hardware with a single blob chip
Coping is quite literally necessary. It’s the same for people with cognitive or psychological disabilities. The world isn’t organized or structured with you in mind… You need to cope with the immediate challenges and find solutions, and often you need to cope with the psycho-emotional aspect of living in a world that often works against rather than with you.

It’s difficult. Not coping is a recipe for a really bad time. I think people without disabilities are uncomfortable with acknowledging the innate struggles.

I should add that I currently have a non Tesla EV. So I've sat in those charge spots. A camera or possibly another sitting duck next to you isn't going to save you.

If they made a 16 mini I might buy one, but as it is my 13 mini still works fine and anything larger will be an inherent downgrade for me.
Unfortunate. Of all the PM tools I've used, I hated Pivotal the least.

It made it easy to do the things that were frequently done.

It limited customization down to a sane level.

And it generally seemed to stay out of the way (significant look at Jira).
> The support teams always understood

But they don't have to. It could also be against their ToS, and many other providers would not have been ok with it. Accounts and domains have been taken away for much less.
The point isn't implementing all the features of c# and Java, rather doubling down on their simplicity mantra against all programming language complexity, only to revisit such decisions years later, because after all the other programming languages had good reasons to have such features in first place.
It makes no difference. If the people posting those tweets are Brazilian denizens why not sanction them under Brazilian laws?

Shutting down Twitter to stop them implies the Brazilian judiciary doesn't have the ability to sanction them under Brazilian law.
For anyone looking for a TL;DR, I'd suggest starting at https://netflixtechblog.com/introducing-netflixs-key-value-d... , which HN is truncating so you can't see it but I've directly linked to a later section in the post with a #. Up to that point it's basically "a networked HashMap<String, SortedMap<Bytes, Bytes>>". But the ability to return partial results based on a timeout with a pagination token is somewhat unusual and the next section called "Signaling" is at least worth a look.
>completely lock-out a user from their machine, turning that machine into part of a botnet or other malicious purpose

There seems to be a pretty big leap from beginning of that sentence to the end, I personally wouldn't consider local DoS a problem.
I remember how tricky it was when I first started doing user interviews, so I thought sharing some interview templates might be helpful for other founders

The goals of an interview are different depending on what you’re exploring.
For me, these chats focused on understanding user struggles and needs.

My template is built from a combination of insights from:

1) A must-read for user interviews: The Mom Test by Rob Fitzpatrick. It shows you how to uncover user needs with as little bias as possible.

2) Another great read: Demand-Side Sales 101 by Bob Moesta & Greg Engle. It helps you understand the user's “job to be done,” so you can align your product and messaging with their needs.

3) Other newsletters, and blogs I came across

So here's the template that guided me through 200+ interviews.

P/s: I’d love to hear your thoughts or feedback —feel free to drop a comment!

Seems chicken and egg to me.
This brings up a couple questions I've always had about Tor. I played around with it a bit maybe a decade ago and it seemed it was used for drugs, CSAM, and getting yourself honeypotted trying to buy illegal guns or murder-for-hire.

I always assumed if you were doing things where your threat model included governments trying to kill you that Tor wouldn't be all that useful even if it was secure.

Describing it as "Differential Privacy" reminds me of Divvi Up from ISRG, the organization behind Lets Encrypt. https://divviup.org/

Anyone know how these compare?
Further abroad (Australia), Chile is a country and chili is the hot pepper, so I suspect the (English) language here is highly regional.

Eg I’ve even lived in North American and never come across that spelling for the pepper.
Sure, but that's "off-device", so you either have to run it yourself (and pay-for-and-manage it) or rely on someone else to run one for you, which if you're into privacy on top of ad-blocking, you likely don't want.
Thanks for your comment. That is a helpful perspective.

> the crucial lines is "provoe a state of terror in the general public." That is to say, terrorism uses arbitrary violence in order to cause fear and panic leading to political goals. By contrast, the targets of this attack were directly against the personnel and leadership of a militarized organization currently in a shooting war with israel. The goal is not to instill terror in a population, but to directly target the capabilities of a military organization.

Doesn't have to be arbitrary, and a highly precise targeted attack killing high commanders can still instill fear in the general population - if the most guarded guys can be killed, nobody is safe.
Open Source doesn’t imply the absence of property rights.

It’s a choice to invest my own effort into something I choose to give to some people for free.

It literally requires me to use (at personal risk) my savings to create and give a gift to others.

I don’t see “socialists” risking their own wealth to produce and give gifts to others. They take others wealth and give it to their (usually unproductive) friends.

Big difference.
The end of the cold war- and a true market due to systemic competition? It gave union leverage, it gave politician a metric "continued existence" and it gave companies something to be or not to be.

Also you are right about this being the norm: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilded_Age

This is what a free market without systemic competition always boils down into.

That's an excellent question.

Also, how are tool definitions to be handled? Each program seems to have their own approach, though some will place the tool description in comments. CutViewer is notable for doing this, and is the example I have been following in:

https://github.com/WillAdams/gcodepreview

(which is quite a different project)

EDIT: Note that the comment system which Cutviewer uses seems to be something of a de facto standard --- Carbide Create uses this same scheme.
The judge itself is a supreme court justice. Yes, the Brazilian senate can remove the judge, but the current government backs the judge and give money to congress members to use in their constituency, in returns to get their vote on issues, and that includes to prevent the impeachment of the judge.

So yes, the judge is breaking the law, simply because there's nothing in the law that says, for example, that the punishment for something, is the suspension of their social network profile.

That would be analog for cutting the vocal cords of a person that commits an opinion crime. It would be wrong IF we have that in our laws, but we don't.

If someone commit a crime, you punish for the crime. If they commit again, you increase the punishment and so on. There's nothing that can be done to prevent someone on commiting an opinion crime.
When a populace is displaced by war, famine, genocide etc, they become refugees in other nations. But for some reason in this particular case, it's okay for them to in turn displace another people who are already established in Palestine (a completely different country from the ones they fled)? Just because they want a territory of their own?

Should the Rwandan Tutsi be allowed to "fight for a home" in Egypt? Or maybe they should take Portugal?
Looks like it, that's new! I tried Linear quite some time ago and it didn't "stick", I'll have to give it another shot.

That's encouraging. We are in the 0-3 program and will do whatever we can.
First of all, it is incorrect to say that the GPT "spoke first." The user created an account, initiated a session, had some number of conversations, then came back later and initiated another (or the same) session.

Under that circumstance, any software could "initiate" anything. When you come back to some shopping sites, they say, "Here's something that's on your wishlist!" That's not AI, and certainly not AGI.

This was not a behavior that demonstrates volition on the part of an LLM. It was added (by a prompt!) from the developers, on purpose.
And then he died.

It's true that a majority is from the US government through various funding schemes and grants. They're very transparent about their funding and ongoing efforts to diversify. But a little over half coming from US government sources isn't the same as their devs literally being on the gov't payroll; people often talk about Tor as if the developers themselves earn a government salary.

(Funnily, Signal also received major funding from US government sources but very few people seem to question that when lauding Signal.)

Outstanding. As Google’s IPv6 traffic portion approaches 50% (https://www.google.com/intl/en/ipv6/statistics.html) it’s clear IPv6 is here, now, today. I wouldn’t dream of launching a new public-facing greenfield project without it.

This part of the Marco Civil talks about logs, and that's not what the judge is requesting. The judge is requesting that social network profiles to be taken down, without telling the person that got the profile taken down the reason - which removes their ability to defend theirselves in the court.
Let's not discount the validity of making it easier for Russians, or Chinese, or North Koreans, to get western media.

Very interesting. I'll keep that in mind going forward. Seems like it could be a valuable skill!
This is very true. You only have to look at the list authors/editors of the specs from Oasis to see that they square up with the individuals identified by Joel in https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2001/04/21/dont-let-architect....

If XML was removed, these specs wouldn't have been much better. The motivation of the companies sponsoring specs was to build something that sold more enterprise middleware and identity servers. This was never going to be attractive to the individuals working with IETF, or the people working on web standards who'd create WHATWG (I know SAML isn't their domain.)

Many readers here also won't be aware of how web services, SOAP, and XML were the AI hype of the time. These were getting pushed into every kind of solution. At the same time, the alternative options for document and serialization formats weren't ubiquitous, so having XML everywhere was somewhat pragmatic for the average developer. I can't imagine ASP (or early-.NET) developers trying to deal with ASN.1.

An ESP32 is a power hog meant to be plugged into a wall. Here are the current requirements for the various modes according to [1]:

Active mode, 260mA to 790 mA (!)
Modem sleep, 20mA
Light sleep: 0.8 mA
Deep sleep: 10 uA
Hibernate: 2.5 uA

Even with fancy DTIM beacons, Wifi and Bluetooth IoT devices just have a really power-hungry protocol stack and radio system to run.

Compare that to something like an STM32U5 microcontroller [2]:

3.1 mA Run mode at 160 MHz
19.5 μA/MHz Run mode at 3.3 V
6.6 µA stop 2 mode with full SRAM
1.7 μA stop 3 mode with 16 Kbyte SRAM
0.5 uA standby mode with RTC
0.3 uA standby mode (24 wakeup pins)
0.1 uA shutdown mode (24 wakeup pins)

And probably more importantly, an actual low-power microcontroller can wake from sleep in something like 4 microseconds, do something for a few cycles, and go back to sleep. Pager protocols are designed for this, putting the pager to sleep for sometimes an hour, and the crystal oscillator restarts the battery-powered device moments before the frame arrives, then goes back to sleep. Conversely, booting up the whole protocol stack on the ESP32 and acquiring a connection can take literally 4 seconds.

That results in a power consumption ratio on the order of 100,000,000. ESP32s are not efficient.

I think Opera Mini did much more than compression.

I seem to remember them actually rewriting (rendering?) the web page server side, and then sending an optimized mobile friendly version to make it more readable for pages that were originally designed for desktop.

It worked great on my phone and I even used it when the phones were more cabable, because web pages looked better and it saved a lot of bandwidth.
