The musk link gave a "please retry", I was unable to read it.

Some of the links felt a bit like puff pieces and none quite helped. The cajun navy link clarified free of service cost to users - but that was not my intended question.

You said the equipment is properly free. To clarify, are you referring to end users, or free to those delivering the equipment to begin with? My impression was the latter. In which case I wanted to know how you knew that, and what exactoy was "many".

My question was not: how many people are using starlink devices for free? My apologies if that seemed like that was the question I was asking. Perhaps I misunderstood what you meant by "it is properly free" (which I interpreted as spaceX giving the equipment away)

This is a really interesting case of Emacs being so old that its default (and only in this case) behavior is just unable to comprehend current computer technology and usage. I think I am correct in saying that the lack of capabilities to have horizontal scrolling of a screen was an absolute hard limit of the teletype and terminal era. It should not be difficult to add such capability, but more than the obviously connected portions of Emacs’ code could implicitly rely on the assumptions that come from the impossibility of horizontally extending text.

I have actually done some work on a rewrite of the Emacs core in rust[1], so I have thought a lot about this question. Most of the things you would want to change could be fairly easily added to the existing Emacs. The biggest ones that are hard to do with the current core is concurrency and collaborative editing. My particular core is focused on concurrency[2].

Unlike a lot of commenters here, I am trying to stay backwards compatible with elisp. It is not the best, but huge body of existing code is one of the strengths of Emacs. Unlike vimscript, elisp isn’t painful enough to be worth replacing.

Did I get it wrong or the infection was through USB? I thought it was something related to a remote/wireless attack. Is such attack even possible on air-gapped systems?

Dealing with people like this is why many don't want to open source their code. Take it or leave it.
I was at a coffee shop a couple weeks ago and I heard two guys going on about how the moon landing never could have happened because it seems impossible. They didn't have any supporting data. They just kept saying things like "all the footage looked so totally fake." My favorite was "and how did they even get back to Earth? I don't remember ever seeing video of then launching a rocket off the moon, do you?"

That's essentially what diffusion does, except it doesn't have clear boundaries between "scene graph" and "full image". It starts out noisy and adds more detail gradually
Then you’re still at the mercy of the TTY application being secure. Having to go through the analog hole makes it much more difficult.

As for patching, you would ensure a secure root of trust and only allow read-only media to deliver said updates as another sibling points out

Air gapping is still valuable but it’s still hard to impossible. For example, stuxnet was delivered by an insider. So good physical security and monitoring is also needed to prevent against insider threats.
This is wrong. You can absolutely dose psylocybin at levels that make a meaningful difference in experience (certainly enough to have an anti-depressant effect) without “tripping” or being in any way impaired. For many adults, this will be around 100-200mg of psilocybin.

You can't build modern Rust without a rustc binary... Does that mean it "can't be built from source"?
Your air gapped machine would be generating the QR codes not ingesting them.
How many people used the tracking app for how long? How were they chosen?

The study would be flawed if the group is not chosen to represent correctly the entire population. E.g., if they called for volunteers using the app, mostly people will apply that are engaged in climate change mitigation anyway and / or are in the target market for the 49 Euro ticket.
Doing a rain dance and concluding that it doesn't help also gives you another data point. Praying as prescribed in 50 different religions a whole lot more data points. And so on.

I'm not a nut screaming "It's all a scam, don't participate in modern healthcare!". Just noting that it's complicated, and the idea that going to a physician is always the best option should receive more scrutiny, because it's not black and white.
And yet I frequently see (in New Zealand), properties with oversized double garages (often built to fit oversized American vehicles) and driveways that take up half the land on the property. Cars use a huge amount of space in roads, carparks, garages, and are responsible for pushing things further and further away from the home. And then somehow cars are seen as the solution for the very problems they create. There's plenty of real world evidence that there are better ways to solve this.

I don't think cars are responsible for bigger backyards at all. The size of the average property where I live only seems to be shrinking as the roads get more and more congested.
SignalR vs. WebSockets: Which One Is Better for Real-Time Communication?
The author doesn't mention if they considered switching to a glibc container to fix the lack of glibc. That seems a reasonable solution rather then swapping out the complete assembly compiler.

IOMMU typically controls access so that the peripheral only has access to memory the OS allows it to have.

When you talk between remote machines, you have to translate to a format that can transmitted and distributed between machines(serialization). You then have to undo at the other end(deserialization). If what you are sending along is just a few floats, that can be very cheap. If you're sending along a large nested dictionary or even a full program, not so much.

Imagine an example where you have two arrays of 1 billion numbers, and you want to add them pairwise. You could use spark to do that by having each "task" be a single addition. But the time it would take to structure and transmit the 1 billion requests will be many multiples of the amount of time it would take to just do the additions.
The title distracts from the actual conclusion of the blog post, namely that it is apparently hard to build projects that include assembly on something called Alpine Linux.
Didnt a lot of studies finally come out by 2022 showing that SSRIs are not actually effective for most people, no more than a placebo? And the whole link between serotonin and depression was spurious…

In any case, I believe that ADHD, Depression and many other “umbrella” psychiatric diagnoses are being overdiagnosed, much like “hysteria” was for hundreds of years (eg 1 in 4 middle-aged women is on antidepressants now, and the opioid epidemic in men was largely exacerbated by the pharma industry, as has the overdiagnosis of ADHD prescribing amphetamines to kids).

To be fair, the actual incidence of phychiatric conditions from ADHD to autism to depression has increased, as well as autoimmune disorders, diabetes etc. although not as much as the pharma industry wants us to believe. It could very well be the result of upstream changes in nutrition (eg wild increases in sugars like fructose across the board, antibiotic overuse on factory farms, buildup of microplastics everywhere etc.), and to a large degree society (including loneliness, dating, relationships, work, etc) and medicating them downstream (eg with amphetamines or opioids) is just a bandaid.

Late stage capitalism has had a direct role in exacerbating this. For example, the tech industry (which many on HN are involved in) has redefined dating, relationships, job searches, political discourse, and much more. All of these affect how people interact. A seminal book even back in 2001 was “Bowling Alone” by Robert Putnam, who noticed Americans aren’t attending communal activities like they used to. Corporations have co-opted many movements (like women’s lib) to make people work harder, neglect their kids, eat unhealthy food, become obese, develop diabetes, lose sleep, and now be part of the gig economy etc.

There is no "rule", it's just how these terms are defined and what they are supposed to mean if we are pedantic enough with how we use them.

"Present perfect" is a tense (or, if we are really pedantic, it's a tense and an aspect), because it's about time of action (the process described was happening in the past, but now it's finished, and it has some result). In a sense, this is not even about the language, it's an aspect of reality, except we don't say that all languages have present perfect tense, because in many languages there is no grammatic form to express it. If English had a way to express hearsay grammatically, we could say it has renarrative/inferential mood. Furthermore, these are two kinda independent axis. If English had a grammatic variation for depending on if it's a hearsay only for the present perfect, we'd say it has renarrative mood in present perfect tense, but doesn't have in any other tense (even though, obviously, in real English we can kinda express similar meaning by adding the word "allegedly" to any tense, but there's no grammatic variation, so we say english doesn't have such mood, but then, one can argue that the same can be said about the word "have", so the line is a bit blurry).

Mac and Gnome do too. I think somehow overlaying that it’s an executable and double-checking if you want to execute from a removable drive might be better techniques than worrying about file extensions which only help people who know what they’re doing already (in which case it’s common to configure the UI to show those extensions)

"Interruption" is only one side of the coin, there's usually a reason why somebody is interrupting you and not being able to interrupt you (=not get an important information) will often cost a lot for their productivity.

I think it heavily depends on the person and type of work. I'm SWE and for most daily work I don't mind getting interrupted - I'm able to get back to work without a problem. It's only if I work on an extra difficult problem which requires very deep focus, I go somewhere quiet, but that's less than once a week.
It’s more suitable to be integrated into an existing hardware product than a SaaS.

Your measuring wall time, not CPU time. It may be that they are similar, but I'd suspect you aren't loading the worker nodes well. If the savings are from the reduced shuffles & serde, it's probably something you can measure. I'd be curious to see the findings.

I'm not against using simple methods where appropriate. 95% of the companies out there probably do not need frameworks like spark. I think the main argument against them is operational complexity though, not the compute overhead.
If all that's missing is 'a nasm compatible assembler', did they try just swapping it out for nasm, which seems to have a readily available alpine package?

Flutter vs React Native: Performance Benchmarks
I agree, though I feel compelled to post that the BSDs learned their lesson about the use of the UNIX trademark the hard way. Part of what caused the classic lawsuit between the Regents of the University of California (the "Berkeley" in Berkeley Software Distribution) and AT&T was the fact that a spinoff company selling BSD had the phone number 1-800-ITS-UNIX:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UNIX_System_Laboratories,_Inc.....

This lawsuit happened (1992-1994) when Linux was in its infancy (Linus Torvalds started work on Linux in 1991). Had the future of BSD not been so uncertain during this lawsuit, it is quite possible that some derivative of BSD would be the dominant FOSS operating system today instead of Linux.

Given that air gapped American government machines would be vulnerable to similar techniques, why don’t common operating systems build mechanisms to make this stuff more difficult?

* force prompting executing anything off external media

* disallow anything other than input devices for USB

* disallow unsigned binaries from running

* work to require usb peripherals to carry a unique cryptographic signature so that you can easily lock the set of allowed devices once the machine is set up

Heck, a lot of this stuff could be valuable to help secure corporate IT machines too.
Captain, we're sinking.
Nothing wrong with ignorance .. asking for a source, as you did, is implicitly saying you recognize that you may be ignorant. The only shameful ignorance is ignorance of ignorance.

That said, I assumed the "You are getting a well-deserved correction" part you're replying to had a typo, or was referring to some other post. I didn't parse it the same way. To me, if a correction of ignorance is "well deserved," that's a vague compliment.

These are police officers. They aren't supposed to run away from gun fights as a first option. They need to at least try to engage and shut down the threat.

>hide - seek concealment, leave if possible

That is exactly what the engine block thing is for. It is a last resort but the alternative is to likely get shot through the vehicle or get shot in the back running away from your actual job.

Not to mention, an EV can get shot in the battery leading to a huge fire, possibly incinerating anyone locked in the back seat of the car. EV fires are often sudden and often accompanied by explosions, whereas petrol-fueled cars are very difficult to ignite in a gunfight (contrary to the ridiculous explosions that Hollywood shows).

Summary: You don't have a clue what you are talking about. The cops, many of whom are combat veterans on top of their police training, DO understand the threats.
I’ve had an on and off battle with ad-hoc self medication for anxiety via heavy drinking for like twenty years, by “on and off” I mean that some situations didn’t really trigger it much, and other situations made it life defeating.

As close as I’ve come to an effective remediation was living abroad where the food wasn’t actively adversarial: capitalism can do many good things but it drives the quality of food to “edible plus epsilon”. Rich people eat pasture-raised shit for a reason. For me it just deleted that problem.

But I’m interested in this class of medication because it’s difficult bordering on impractical to eat well in some regions. People say just cook, well, there’s an infrastructure around that which amounts to a declared bias against those who didn’t settle down young. Much like people who met their partner before partnering became monetized, “easy for you to say”.

I hope you have success in your journey either way, and the less meds involved on average probably better, but if it works and has no bad side effects I don’t see why one would stop. Welcome to your new awesome life!

Every SV power player I’ve ever met was enhancing themselves via chemicals. It’s not tweeted about (other than when Garry Tan threatens elected officials), but it’s a quiet norm.
I understand, this is exactly why I noted "even on their 2nd chance". The initial lack of payout/meaningful response was incompetency by not understanding the severity of the vuln. Fine, happens.

But after the PoC that showed the severity in a way that anyone could understand, they still didn't pay. That's the issue. The whole investigation was done for them.
> If you get paid minimum wage, what your employer is saying is, "I would pay you less if I was legally allowed to do so."

Doesn't this apply to all pay rates? It's not like high-paying jobs are high-paying for the love in the employer's heart.

When does a wage stop being gross? 1c over minimum wage? $1 over?
Titanic another notable exception, but to be honest I don’t really believe this as a rule and think it has more to do with pacing then runtime. There are long films that don’t feel like they are dragging and short films that do.
This analogy simply doesn't work because transit isn't fungible. Trains and air travel or cars simply aren't "the same park". The benefit of trains is objectively not just the carbon footprint. The money spent by the government benefits the public in other ways, not just environmentally. Ignoring the wear on (and cost of ownership of) personal vehicles, for instance, dismisses a huge amount of savings for folks who can take trains instead. Rail travel is safer and results in fewer deaths. The list goes on. Even "having a train that takes me to work so I can relax on my commute" is an important one. And many of those things are almost impossible to truly quantify the monetary value of and jam into a spreadsheet.

> It made me wonder, because it seems like even if someone had easy access to $100 trillion worth of platinum, they would no longer have $100 trillion worth of platinum. How much can you benefit from scarcity when you are also obliterating it?

You can't (for practical reasons) instantly drop all of it on the market at once. As you increase production, terrestrial mines may decide to shut down based on price fluxations or increases in difficulty of mining the last remaining deposits. World governments might prefer to keep terrestrial mines as reserves for national security reasons and import space sourced materials when economically feasible.
Prepare yourself for a shock then; bootstrapping rustc starts from an already-built version of rustc[1]:

> the only way to build a modern version of rustc is a slightly less modern version.

(There is, at least theoretically, a non-circular bootstrap chain starting with a very old rustc written in OCaml, but the more practical alternative is probably to use mrustc[2] instead.)

And possibly to have blackhats to start looking more closely, since they now know both 1) that whitehats are likely to be focusing elsewhere leaving more available un-reviewed attack surface, and 2) that Zendesk appears to be the sort of company who'll ignore and/or hide known vulnerabilities, giving exploits a much longer effective working time.

If "the bad guys" discovered this (or if it had been discovered by a less ethically developed 15 year old who'd boasted about it in some Discord or hacker channel) I wonder just how many companies would have had interlopers in their Slack channels harvesting social engineering intelligence or even passwords/secrets/API keys freely shared in Slack channels? And I wonder how many other widely (or even narrowly) used 3rd party SaaS platforms can be exploited via Zendesk in exactly the same way. Pretty much any service that uses the email domain to "prove" someone works for a particular company and then grants them some level of access based on that would be vulnerable to having ZenDesk leak email confirmations to anybody who knows this bug.

Hell, I suspect it'd work to harvest password reset tokens too. That could give you account takeover for anything not using 2FA (which is, to a first approximation over the whole internet, everything).
