Okay I didn't know that Oracle owns JavaScript trademark which is ridiculous.

Reading some reddit comments on the topic I was even more surprised to learn that Cisco has the trademark for iOS and licenses it out to Apple for use on their iPhone operating system.

There exists tooling already to compile for wasm from static languages (rust, C++, and so on) and there exists tooling to run this WASM on a raspberry pi (wasmer, etc).

That makes me feel the end goal here is not what's described ("make wasm so it can run on a raspberry"), but rather "make wasm run in micropython".

Am I missing something?
This idea of scaling graphics up and down instead of rendering at the display native resolution with size measurements in dpi-independent units was so bad. I understood it to be a neat trick, when the first retina displays were relased. But everything afterwards is just awfull.

Of course they do. Apple is constantly putting more guard rails around their devices. When uninformed users mess up their devices they make a public stink about it and damage Apple’s reputation. Apple does not want this. This is the entire reason behind all the gatekeeper stuff in macOS.

What Apple does not care about is power users who want to crack open their devices and void the warranty. Those users can go out of their way to buy security screwdrivers. Apple has always done this, going at least as far back as the original Macintosh.

Well in my case I add almost no one from the other life, very selective. But me is not about abuse or anything, just trying a new thing. If I could not block certain people fully I would not use that platform for this.

I agree blocking can also be used in unseemly ways though

Cut the melodrama. This isn’t the first time there has been racism on the Internet. MySpace and then Facebook were both loaded with it and 4chan has been there all along. The Internet in the late 2000s was far less filtered than X today.

You’re just dealing with coming down from a massive swing to extreme censorship in the 2010s so it seems scary.

I don't understand this part. The people who left X after Musk's takeover seem to be mostly people who were on the winning side of Covid, i.e. the side that used the state and media apparatus to coerce people to participate in a medical experiment.
> Back to your flat-surface scenario, perhaps similar system could create virtual shelves or cubbyholes? When you present the robot an item, it remembers the handoff location in space, and moving your hand there again causes it to offer the corresponding object.

That's genius, actually! This would solve the problem, as long as the robot is reliably fast and accurate in giving back the right object at the right moment! And as long as it has enough capacity and/or appendages[0].

This reminds me of a related insight that was also enlightening to me when I heard it. It was in one of the SICP lectures, that talked about infinite streams and lazy evaluation[1]. Quoting from the transcript[2], emphasis mine:

"Again, you can ask. Is that data structure integers really all the integers? Or is it is something that's cleverly
arranged so that whenever you look for an integer you find it there? That's sort of a philosophical question, right?
If something is there whenever you look, is it really there or not? It's sort of the same sense in which the money in
your savings account is in the bank."

[0] - In some 5-10% of cases, I don't just want to temporarily let go of the object - I want it positioned in a specific place for a visual reference. Think instruction manual, a recipe sheet, or a tablet screen. Your robot solution could still solve this, with a few dedicated appendages to hold things in place.

Musk is first to silence people who say things he does not like.
Interesting that using microprocessors in (simple) calculators was very short-lived, they were very quickly replaced by custom-made controllers: "While the 4000 series microprocessor chip-set was being developed, the "calculator on a chip" MK6010 was developed for Busicom by Mostek.".
Agreed! It also brings friendships, new ways of thinking and framing, inspiration, and the opportunity to give and receive support - to discover how much you can matter, and the good you can do.
Why? For me it's the opposite. "Public" is a label for a specific type of audience - everyone with access to my feed/timeline (as opposed to a subset like friends, followers etc). If I block someone, they no longer have access to my timeline.
in fairness dumping tons of anything should disrupt the grass.
Dispute resolution isn't required in most cases anyway. It's already a lot safer than cash, because a permanent record proves the payment did occur. Also, chargeback insurance, in expectation, does cost the user more than he saves.

Useful models that allow us to make predictions.

Geekbench is also terrible though? I'm not an Intel fanboy that's upset about Intel not winning, I've owned AMD chips for most of my life. These are just terrible benchmarks that don't tell us anything. I'm more interested in seeing what Phoronix or gaming benchmarks (particularly Factorio and MSFS) have to show. Real-world benchmarks are infinitely more useful to guaging the real-world benefit of buying one or the other hardware.
Yeah, the issue is that 6 years ago your only option for a highdpi monitor with the correct scale (e.g. for 27'' it needs to be 5k, not 4k) would be the iMac or the XDR display that costs over $5k...

Now that Apple sells their own (very decent) monitor at somewhat more affordable price it makes sense to use it as an external display, I agree.
Try unsubscribing from any printed journal nowadays. Then tell me exactly how many customers want this and why that number is zero. And lastly explain how the supposedly "free" market is going to "self-regulate" this.

> It's unfortunate that almost none of the PPA criticisms actually go into depth on why its implementation isn't sufficiently private. It seems there's no desire to actually improve privacy, they'd rather just kill the feature.

For me, yes absolutely.

> If killing PPA meant the internet would suddenly be advertising free, I would be 110% on board, but that's not going to happen. Advertising is the dominant business model on the web and it's not going away. The alternative to privacy respecting advertising is the malware-ridden surveillance machine that exists today.

I'm done playing ball with the ad industry and I have lost all trust in them. They will grab what they want to grab. It will provide less data than the current solutions so the ad industry will just continue with what they have.
They've been working on just this bit for the better part of a decade. It'll happen (passkeys I imagine), just slower than most of us would like.

First try updating an existing source package or adding a patch to one. Hell, just download one with `apt-get source` and just read it— look at the files that make up the source package. Then download a few more. Maybe try and build some. Change a couple files before building and see what happens.

Once you have a feel for that stuff, use debhelper to create a new package 'from scratch' (from an upstream source tarball).

This 'tutorial'¹ presents basically the same info as the Debian packaging docs² but it feels more easily digestible to me because of how it's chopped up into slides.

Some of the manpages are also good. The debhelper manpage³ refers you to other small docs, notably dh_make⁴, which is probably your best starting point for creating a package from scratch.

It says that the HN community is more rational than most? It's not about empathy, it's about common sense - you can't prevent someone from seeing your PUBLIC posts just by blocking their account... at most you can make it slightly more inconvenient.
It should at least stop autoswitching after you pressed a button. I clicked back and it instantly moved forward to the next picture again.
This and other newcomers (e.g. exa, ripgrep, ..) are not specified by POSIX and thus not ubiquitous. For someone that interacts with multiple UNIX systems daily, I find that the tedium of maintaining -sometimes multiple versions- and moving these binaries around is greater than the benefits they provide.

The same can be said for new shells that have popped up in the last 5-10 years versus bash. They're not sufficient to escape the local minima of 'good enough'.
> So more privacy by default is bad?

Is this necessarily the case, though?

1. Does this bypass user's cookie blocking measures (e.g. PiHole, ad blockers)? If so, it's reducing those users' privacy and opting them in by default.

2. If the user was previously interacting with GDPR-compliant websites only, is this reducing their privacy? They're not given the opportunity to consent or revoke consent to this collection of their data.

3. What are the implications of a data breach of Mozilla's servers? Would this have a greater negative impact on users' privacy than a breach of a single website?
> Keep in mind that when dying cancer patients starve in the end, the tumors don't slow.

That's something I don't understand. If cancer cells grow faster then I suppose they should be more affected by the lack of nutrients. I know that this model is too simplistic to be true, but I don't know what exactly is missing from it.
If you sign out and view a user you can see their posts so I never saw the point of hiding them from logged in but blocked users.
Why do we need tracking for advertising though? I wouldn't mind ads based on the page content (as much). Social media websites know their users anyways, no need IMO to track users across other websites.

> Those who continue to use surveillance instead of or in combination with PPA would be seen as bad actors.

The current ad industry can hardly be seen as worse actors than they already are. Yet it doesn't seem to deter them in any way.
With fractional scaling you can get objects misaligned otherwise, and I personally found it very annoying e.g. in VSCode with 1.25x zoom, where the objects would move slightly when you interact with them, due to imperfect and inconsistent size calculations.

IMO the way Apple does this is quite brute force and unconventional, but at least the picture doesn't drift with different scale.

>It’s one thing to argue that ActivityPub is “the future of the social web” (as Ben does, and as I hope it isn’t)

Then what it is? I think ActivityPub is the good start. Imo Fediverse is the most exciting thing on the Internet since Bitcoin.

>Blogs were the social web. Friendster was the social web. MySpace was the social web. Twitter was the social web. With the exception of blogs, this wasn’t cross-platform sociality, but it nonetheless was the social web.

Blogs were and are the only true decentralized and distributed social platform; in the early days of the commercial internet, people thought that the prevalent social platform would be something like Atom/RSS where you would be distributing content in a decentralized fashion e.g. Blogosphere and not concentrate everything in a centralized fashion ala Medium or other similar platforms. Even Blogger and Substack were and are steps in a good direction since they are not per se centralized.

Friendster, MySpace, Twitter, Facebook and Instagram were the opportunistic social networking projects because it was easier to centralize everything under one host and under one management because it's easier to control the platform that way. Powerful distributed social networking protocols didn't exist and it wasn't clear how they would work but now picture is getting clearer. Project like aforementioned ActivityPub and Web Monetization[0] are decent attempts at trying to reclaim back the control of your digital social interactions because everything is getting easier now: cross-platform interaction, migrating your data(content and contacts) from one platform to another etc. etc.

The problem for me with paywalls is that you have to give a lot of information in order to pay. So you still don't have privacy.
> from my pov: <100mbps

Sure, but it's pretty ironic if you are stuck on a 100MBit fiber connection and a few buildings down you get 300MBit over twisted pair. And the problem with AON losing support is that you often can't find an independent ISP that would actually give you service over that AON you have.

Being a public interest group doesn't mean they have my interests in mind. Consider that both the National Right to Life Committee and the Planned Parenthood Action Fund are public interest group, even though they have strongly different views of what best benefits the public.

Why should we cooperate when advertisers and others didn't cooperate and respect the Do Not Track (DNT) header?

I want zero tracking and zero user profiling. I'm okay with context advertising. If the internet can't survive without profiling, then it's got a worse business model than broadcast TV.
Working with c/cpp in uni exploded my mind. It's such a specific humbling experience that has a bit of anything I love - engineering, history, culture, linguistics, etc.

It made me think that anyone should know and try every possible language (programming or otherwise) - "thinking" in a language is such a unique experience. The different contexts make everything feel different, even though it's more of the same. The perspective change, and changes the subjective experience.

For example - to really understand the nature of linux or git, you have to speak its language and understand the nuances that are usually lost in translation. Tangibly, to understand the true subjective meaning of the word "forest" in russian one has to speak and understand russian.

The context changes the perspective, so sometimes it changes everything.

PPA is about attribution. It doesn't determine ad types you're seeing like Google's Topics. What it's for is having an allegedly private way to determine if you actually bought a product based on an ad you've seen. Marketeers love having that data so they can determine if their ads are effective to trigger purchases (called "conversions")

I'm not in favour of PPA by the way. I turned it off everywhere. But I just wanted to highlight this.
It's free now - but I suppose 10+ years of being both closed source and paid didn't do wonders for adoption.

What part needs a cluster in your experience? The Datomic deployments I've been involved with have been running on a single server, with a single instance of backing storage etc.

Datalog is interesting indeed... Back when I first started using Datomic in 2012 I had just fundamentally decided to use it, and it took probably a week before the query language "clicked", i.e. to be able to actually compose my own queries and not just copy paste my way to something that works.

> European market is worth it even with their lower profit margins.

Overall fee (bank + network) seems to be around 1% in Europe and 2-3% in the US. So if we subtract the cashbacks/rewards which are almost nonexistent in the EU these days I’m not sure that the difference is that huge.

Also credit cards usually have monthly fees in Europe which be more than $€10 per month or so. Of course benefits like travel insurance etc. might balance that out.
