i2p is a bit harder because the circuits aren't end-to-end. Your traffic goes through typically 3 relays, then an all-to-all mixing where it goes directly to the start of the recipient's relay chain, then 3 of their chosen relays. A new connection is NOT set up through the whole network for each overlay connection - it uses your same outgoing relay chain, and your last relay sends the packet to the first relay in the recipient's incoming relay chain.

It also uses a separate chain in each direction which makes any attack based on observing timing both ways more difficult.

It's also not Sybil resistant at all.
I hope the first class passengers were well compensated for their traumatic experience.
I gave other examples for "etc", like game engines. Plenty of others out there. Web server frameworks and so on also use it.

Feel free to argue with the Unreal devs that they're doing it all wrong, or make a competing game engine that never uses inheritance. Whilst "chair" is not something you'll see in their C++ code (too specific), objects like players, static meshes, lights etc are and I guess it works fine for them.

Avoiding inheritance doesn't necessarily work better. I too have seen things, and what you find in languages that don't have inheritance is that they often end up growing libraries that emulate it, just in hacky ways and far too late. That's pretty common in C codebases.

As a simple example of the problems anti-OOP ideology creates, try using Jetpack Compose (a sort of React on steroids) to make a UI where later you decide you want a particular customization to every instance of a particular control in your app. Have fun... the way you customize anything is to wrap that composable in another composable and manually forward all the properties. Want to change the way buttons work? Find every place where a button is used and replace it with the name of your new button, then keep your new MyButton up to date as the underlying library adds new properties. Hope there are enough callbacks to do what you need, and try to avoid being distracted by them all when you're just using a button instead of customizing it. Want to write code that's generic over certain kinds of controls? You just ... can't ... because controls aren't objects now, they're functions. You end up manually implementing inheritance without the aid of the compiler or language features like visibility modifiers. It's far from ideal.
It's your lucky day! I have trained an LLM that reliably detects sarcasm. It was trained on only the finest sarcasm, dramatic irony, situational irony, ridicule and tomfoolery. As an amazing side effect it can even detect whether statements were made in bad faith or good faith with 100% reliability. You need never guess someone's intentions again! The machine will tell you.

I intend to launch it soon, don't miss this investment opportunity!
As far as I understand OIDC and OAuth, this means that any tokens (the passwords) have to go through Eartho, no? So while this may help reduce sensing PII to the SP you are trying to authenticate towards, you are now effectively doing what decades of IT security teaching told you not to do: giving 3rd parties your password -- only that now it's in transparent and the end user isn't aware of it.
Well, Jean Michel Jarre had 11 (eleven) Ataris on stage in 1990... but he'd always been ahead of the curve, e.g. having his own custom sequencer HW.
Let me tell you about the time my wife ordered some cheap furniture on Amazon once ... it was all doll-house furniture. The photos and title did make it seem life-size, and it was super high-quality furniture at that. Just the wrong size...
I think the surprising element is that the German government actually deployed enough resources.
Was the .io domain not deprecated?
I'm kind of leaning to do the same things. Eliminating distractions is vital
I'm currently working on a project that's somewhat loosely related to what you were discussing. I'm building a webfont generator that I call "enigma-webfont", because it uses a series of rotations as a seed to "cipher" the text in the HTML in order to make it useless for LLMs, but to also to preserve it readable for humans.

The text itself without the webfont (which acts like a session, basically) is useless for any kind of machine processing, because it contains the shifted characters as UTF-8. The characters are then shifted back with a custom webfont whose seed is the same as the served HTML, but is different for each client. If you detect a non-bot user, it's currently just setting the seed/shift to 0, and serves the real plaintext, but that's optional as the user doesn't notice a difference (only maybe in the copy/paste function).

For me this was the only kind of web technology I could come up with to find a different way to serve "machine-readable" and "human-readable" content and to be able to differ between them. Anything else that's based on e.g. WebCrypto API or other code would be easily bypassed, because it can run in headless Browser instances.

Though taking screenshots in a headless chrome would kind of work to bypass this, but OCR is luckily currently kinda shitty and the development costs for something like that would explode compared to just adding another rotation mechanism in the webfont :D
Indeed, even if Rust disappeared tomorrow, I would assert that its biggest contribution has been to make affine type systems more understanable in mainstream, to the point several languages, including a few with automatic memory management, are adding such concepts to their type systems without having their communities running away in horror, rather embracing the experiment.
This is purely anecdotal but with Twitter/X removing blocks there seems to be an influx of new users on bluesky, it's definitely not quite on the scale of other major social medias but it seems like it is well on it's way there.

Doctor Won't Take Health Insurance – and Charges Just $35 a Visit [video]
You could make your own if you are sufficiently crafty: the data needed in the UK is available from public sources, https://www.bus-data.dft.gov.uk/ being the main one (I discovered this when checking the data sources of bustimes.org, which they helpfully list on an easy to find page: https://bustimes.org/data).

As I said, laws that prohibit companies like Apple from disclosing something are very different from laws that force them to affirmatively make false statements.

Your citation falls in the first category. I’m well aware that such laws do exist, and I alluded to some of them in my comment (e.g. National Security Letters).

But a law that allowing the government to oblige Apple to lie about whether they can access iCloud, as you said exists, would fall in the second category. This would go far beyond simply prohibiting a disclosure.

Can you identify any US law in the second category? Not only don’t I believe that such a law exists, other more ordinary laws like the FTC Act make many such lies illegal in the commercial context.

But he keeps the cryptic error codes that will go into the logs, or in the frontend where the developer will have to look up the error code. Don't map an error name to u105, just return the actual string: "userValidationFailed".

> Why did they think that? What did this solution look like?

I don't think they did think that. Having listened to a few podcasts with the safety profile advocates I've gotten the impression that their answer to any question about "right, but how would you actually do that?" is "well, we'll see, and in general there's other problems to think about, too!".
This isn't about maintainers. This is about Linux leadership. People wonder if Linus was grabbed by the balls by some US officials. That's when you have to decide between having principles and obedience. That's what I was talking about, and what others imply.

Writing correct mutable code when there are alias in play is difficult and should be avoided I agree. However sometimes it is the right answer to the problem and so it should be possible for the best programmers to do. However only a minority of code needs that, and when it is needed you need to do a lot of extra review - I wish there was a way to make doing it accidentally impossible on C++.

The challenge with the results from the LHC is that there's no second one, so no completely independent reproduction. That said, there were two experiments which were seperate apart from using the LHC for the collisions, and both of them have published their full raw data and methods of analysis, so a fabrication would require falsifying quite a large quantity of raw data in a way that hasn't been detected yet, and co-ordination between quite a lot of people.
I don’t buy it. We’re probably past peak social media at this point. And the outer reality will always have a higher status than any of the inner ones.
At least Circle is real, something that one can download, validate its ideas, what works, what does not.

Most of the profiles being argued for C++ only exist in PDF form, there isn't a single C++ compiler where you can validate those ideas, but trust the authors, the ideas will certainly work once implemented.
There was a similar problem with a specific generation of 688-class submarines, where a calculated temperature would slowly drift. The metric wasn’t used for any protective actions, so it wasn’t a “shut down immediately and return home surfaced on the diesel” situation, but still disconcerting.

I assume that after this the software was soak-tested for weeks / months to eliminate that class of bug. Naval Reactors is many things, but repeating the same mistake twice isn’t one of them.

Then you need a more precisely framed question.

1. AI can do what we can do, in much the same way we can do it, because it's biologically inspired. Not a perfect copy, but close enough for the general case of this argument.

2. AI can't ever be perfect because of the same reasons we can't ever be perfect: it's impossible to become certain of anything in finite time and with finite examples.

3. AI can still reach higher performance in specific things than us — not everything, not yet — because the information processing speedup going from synapses to transistors is of the same order of magnitude as walking is to continental drift, so when there exists sufficient training data to overcome the inefficiency of the model, we can make models absorb approximately all of that information.
Lost Silk Road cities unearthed in Uzbekistan's high mountains
I predict most AI developers will be out of a job soon.

Say you are making a robot that puts nuts and bolts together using DL models. In a few years, Google/OpenAI will have solved this and many other physical tasks, and any client that needs nuts and bolts put together will just buy a GenericRobot that can do that.

Same for radiology-based diagnostics. Soon the mega companies will have bought enormous amounts of data and they will easily put your small radiology-AI company out of business.

Making a tool to do X on a computer? Soon, there will be LLM-based tools that can do __anything__ on a computer and they will just interface with your screen and keyboard directly.

Etc. etc.

Just about anyone working in AI right now is building a castle in someone else's kingdom.

Hey there - one of the Flagsmith founders here - yes we are supporting it, building adapters for our SDKs and I'm on the CNCF project governance board.

Aren't puberty blockers primarily meant to prevent children with gender dysphoria from experiencing the physical disadvantages of going through the puberty of the wrong sex? Obviously a study where children are given the puberty blockers won't be able to measure the impact of all the harmful effects that were prevented (neither physical nor mental health-wise).

The way the article is worded, it almost sounds like they were expecting them to work like mood enhancers. I mean, it's somewhat interesting that there were different outcomes in both studies, but it doesn't speak in any way against the use of puberty blockers.
Often when I look into questions like this I discover the general case is impossible, but simple hysterics can get 99.999% of the cases and so I can get almost all the benefit even though some rare cases are missed.
You're quite wrong in your guess but that's ok. I work in a research lab actually, and there's lots of experimental physics going on here.

I never claimed people are choosing a career in physics research for the money, I just used the argument of having to choose to lose ones income. Also, I can't help but notice though that, when ascended high enough on the academic ladder, the income isn't a joke either.

The reason AI is hyped is because it's easy to get the first 80% or 90% of what you need to be a viable alternative at some task. Extrapolating in a linear fashion, AI will do the last 10-20% in a few months or maybe a couple years. But the low-hanging fruit is easy and fast. It may never be feasible to complete the last few percent. Then it changes from "AI replacement" to "AI assisted". I don't know much about radiology, but I remember before the pandemic one of the big fears was what we'd do with all the unemployed truck drivers.
First of all, one whose army is actually useful, there are plenty of examples of genocides where UN troops were present and nothing was done to prevent that.

No, you keep running the machine, hoping to find a useful signal. More data means more fidelity. A lot of that has been probing the properties of the Higgs, but it's also spent a lot of time ruling out quite a lot of proposed extensions to the standard model.

We know what they did because a _lot_ of scientists desperately wanted to find supersymmetry and various dark matter candidates with the LHC and they've found absolutely _nothing_ and didn't actually just "make some shit up".

Instead what they are doing is insisting that we build an even bigger particle accelerator.

Well, Verse has both OOP and inheritance:

https://dev.epicgames.com/documentation/en-us/uefn/subclass-...

Epic is a very successful software company, they're familiar with FP/Haskell, and their new language has classes with inheritance. There is no evidence here of any shift away from the concept, let alone Unreal being legacy! Apple is the same. Swift deviates from other languages in many ways, but it has inheritance:

https://docs.swift.org/swift-book/documentation/the-swift-pr...

Jetbrains also designed a new language in the past decade, and it has inheritance. Nobody objected (pun intended) and people use it successfully.

So I think that kind of reinforces my point that the dislike of OOP and inheritance is largely restricted to the HN bubble.
That’s not really surprising with those settings.
Thx, I prefer not to visit meta properties :X

> but that is not a pro patient move.

You sure about that? Seems to me that being able to see a “90%” doctor today instead of a “100%” doctor 6 months from now is beneficial to patients. Especially for things like oncology, where that 6 month wait could be the difference between life and death.
For the near future, more like info on safe abortions. Or union organizing.
I had a vague recollection that rectifiers for battery chargers were once made out of stacked layers of oxidized copper disks, and then, in the article danbruc linked to, I saw this:

Note that other semi-conducting materials, such as a rusty nail or an oxidised piece of metal, also generate harmonic frequencies and may there­fore cause an NLJD to generate a false positive.

https://www.cryptomuseum.com/df/tscm.htm#nljd

It turns out that the rectifiers in question were copper - cuprous oxide - lead sandwiches:

What you see on the screen of a terminal is Unicode strings. It is human readable text. len(“”) is 3 even if the underlying encoding holds it as 6 bytes.

Of course if you provide a separate set of functions for treating a string as human readable vs not you can also work with that. Basically len() vs byte_len().

But you can’t concat two human readable strings without ensuring they are of the same encoding. You can’t search a string by bytes if your needle is of a different encoding. You can’t sort without taking encoding and locale preferences into account, etc.

Pretending like you don’t care about encoding doesn’t work as we have seen time and again.

Yes mostly true, exceptions apply mostly based on jurisdictions and capabilities.

People really seem to get off on the idea that they are on the targeting list of an intel service but you actually have to put in some real work to meet that criteria.
