Three pieces of advice:

- It looks like you've submitted this 8 times in a matter of a couple weeks - that's bordering on spam level of excessive. I also don't see any comments in your entire history on any other threads in HN except related to your app. There's nothing wrong with self-promotion but please try to also be a contributing member of the HN community.

- I'd recommend adding a MP4 at the top of the readme quickly demonstrating the power of the tool end-to-end.

- I'd also consider submitting it to the Awesome Autohotkeys List, here:

Say I manufacture door locks, and I ask you to audit the security of my system. Wouldn't it make sense to agree with you that stuff like lockpicking is fine, but going around the building, breaking a window and entering the room doesn't count as "breaking the lock security"?

That's the whole point of a threat model: Mullvad has a threat model, and they build a product resistant to that. When someone audits the product, they should audit it against the threat model.
Dear Okta, please include your OIDC profile claims in your ID tokens.

Actually no, that's on the spec for not enforcing they're in the ID token, and only must be available in the userinfo endpoint.
Why are you comparing flash vs o1-pro, wouldn't a more fair comparison be flash vs mini?
> I'm not saying that C.AI is completely blameless here

I know we're several decades into this pattern, but it's sad to me that we've just given up on that idea that businesses should have a net positive impact on society, that we've just decided there is nothing we can or should do about companies that actively exploit us to enrich themselves, that we give them a pass to ignore the obvious detrimental second-order effects of their business model.
You're surprised? In any vaguely political thread HN is pretty much just a more well-spoken 4chan. Moderation here is entirely based on tone, not content, which along with its techno-libertarian origins makes it the perfect breeding ground for fascists and pseudo-intellectualism.
This was not made possible by the intervention of Musk. If you're referring to the X Corp objection, this has absolutely nothing to do with that.

if it is indeed true that this judge was appointed by Trump (I haven't looked into it), it is reasonable to believe that it probably wasn't based on merit or understanding of law. This is because he has a long history of promoting/installing people that he believes (whether or not it turns out to be the case) will obey him above all else.

Being "fit for the task" is an afterthought.
Well, that's a terrible way to market a product. Not only do I not speak Hindi, but I also don't sound like I speak Hindi.
The NSA maintains a fleet of oddball devices that give them unique capabilities. Usually these are built by big vendors, but sometimes by smaller companies with a unique feature (IBM Harvest, Connection Machine CM-5, Cray Various Models of *MP) It seems reasonable they have some small number of quantum computers that a limited number of researchers use to explore new ideas, but it's harder to imagine their production operations use QM for cryptologic or other computing.

One of their big needs for production operations is having 24/7 support through christmas break, which favors companies like IBM.

Llama 2 end weights are public. The data used to train it, or even the process used to train it, are not. Google can't just train another Llama 2 from scratch.

They could train something similar, but it'd be super weird if they called it Llama 2. They could call it something like "Gemini", or if it's open weights, "Gemma".
The presence of signals in UNIX made me reach the following conclusion: event loop should be mandatory (or at least opt-out), something setup in the CRT before main(). Of course, we're not living in such a well-made C world.
The relationship between the occurrence of a past event and the second it occurred can not be changed, barring relativity. As such, storing the absolute second offset unambiguously persists the actual time the event occurred regardless of any legal changes.

It will just convert to a different, now agreed upon, civil time according to the calendar chosen. It is no different from citing the current second according to the Gregorian calendar versus the Mayan calendar. They both refer to the same “time”, but use different civil dates. The underlying thing that is convertible to different calendar formats is the real thing and corresponds to the absolute time of the past event.

edit: And no, it is almost guaranteed that most past time events are timestamps of the “current” time which has the same qualities as “past” time. Only future civil times should not use absolute second offset times.
In an unlicensed band, everyone may have receivers and transmitters, so the probability of other receivers in the same direction as yours is not low at all, but it is very high, unless you live in the middle of nowhere, so you do not have neighbors.

There is no justification for imposing additional costs for others in order to accommodate your desires that do not matter for them.

Nobody stops you to use a phased array antenna only to obtain a higher gain for reception, in order to increase the communication range.

Even without phased array antennas, using just classic directive antennas that are placed on high masts, it is possible to communicate through WiFi at tens of km (but only at low bit rates and not in all countries, as some have more severe EIRP limits).

The problem of directive antennas is that they are usable only for fixed positions of access points and wireless stations.

Phased array antennas are not enough to enable mobility, because initially a mobile wireless station must discover the direction of the AP and the AP must discover the direction of the station, by using omnidirectional transmission, which limits the range to what can be achieved without phased array antennas.

To use a mobile wireless network that works at distances greater than possible with omnidirectional antennas requires much more sophisticated equipment than just the phased array antennas. You also need means to determine the coordinates of each station (and of the access points, if they are also mobile) and maps with the locations of the access points so that a station that wants to associate with them will know in what direction to transmit. You also need a protocol different from standard WiFi, e.g. the access point may need to scan periodically all directions in order to allow new associations from distant stations.
Haskell's runtime is so complex that I don't think you can write signal handling functions in Haskell. The best you can do is to mark a sigatomic boolean inside the real signal handler and arrange the runtime for check for that boolean outside the signal handler.

Yup: see https://hackage.haskell.org/package/ghc-internal-9.1001.0/do... where it is clear that setting a handler simply writes to an array inside an MVar. And when the signal handler is run, the runtime starts a green thread to run it, which means user Haskell code does not need to worry about signal handler safe functions at all, since from the OS perspective the signal handler has returned. The user handler function simply runs as a new green thread independent of other threads.

But I like the fact that you brought up this idea. Haskell can't do it but in a parallel universe if there were another language with no runtime but with monads, we can actually solve this.

I guess "us" in this context also means USSR. So NATO destroyed USSR and now they want to destroy Russia by expanding their "territory" closer and closer to Russia.

How does that happen? AFAIK the ACA mandates coverage for cancer treatment for almost all plans.
>Isn't it a little strange, though, that the system notionally decided that the families are owed an enormous amount of economic power as compensation for the nasty behavior of Alex Jones' media company, but at the same time it's obliging them not to use that economic power to prevent the sale of the media company to a "new owner" still affiliated with an unrepentant Alex Jones, who will undoubtedly continue the nasty behavior? Just in order to get cash to compensate them at pennies on the dollar for his previous round of nasty behavior?

This is regrettable, but I don't think the court system offers a remedy sufficient for the grief Jones caused. This is why the court awarded what is frankly an absurd sum... truly, what is the point of awarding numbers that large? They're never paid out.

There this a strict defamation case, where the plaintiff's reputations were actually damaged in a way that harmed their income/worth, then we'd likely have seen a more rational award. Whatever it was that Jones did to these people, it's not the same tort as defamation. In that, he calls them embezzlers or pedos or something, they lose their jobs... and we can put a number to the damage he inflicted. Instead, he claimed they were actors, they never had any children, and this was some sort of hoax. Had crazy people coming out of the woodwork to harass them and stalk them. But the only sort of court order that could remediate that would be one that muzzles Jones from saying this shit... prior restraint. Something the Constitution wouldn't allow for.

I actually wonder if what he did shouldn't be characterized as a crime instead of a tort. Were he prosecuted and imprisoned (or even just put on probation), then the government would have the authority/leverage to (temporarily) prohibit this speech. Even then, he'd be made a martyr by his fans and it would continue as soon as the sentence was served.
edit: GrantMoyer's answer is better.

A phased array is a very high-tech method of selective transmission so that you can send a radio signal that is stronger in one specific direction. The way I think of it is that it creates a virtual directional antenna where the direction is adjustable without actually physically moving the antenna elements. The actual tech involved is pretty heavy math and physics (and I don't fully understand it myself) so if you want to really understand it then you may still need to spend hours reading about it.
The choice to mash absolute time and clock time into the same formats and APIs is one of the greatest mistakes in the history of programming, somewhere under null pointers.
Have you cared to check the tiers they offer?
Hint: not that many, and no free ones.

And knowing that mullvad doesn’t come close to the mainstream marketing others (well in essence one) VPN providers, your comment comes of as malicious.
> The Sealed-Bid auction should generate a price that is greater than or equal to the English Open Cry in all situations.

That is a very large claim to make that ignores psychology. If it were true, you would never see open cry auctions used anywhere.
Keepin' the Power Mac G5 running cool: What worked for me
I haven't had a junk call since 2023 (aside from political polling) but I receive a fake usps text from international numbers pretty much daily.

google's messages app is pretty good at corralling them into a spam folder but I do peep in there every now and then. I hope that whatever provider is allowing these gets disconnected.
This is exactly the right question. I see five entries. It doesn't make sense to keep working with more than one unpaid entry plus thirty days. Good solutions are those that prevent problems.
> I don't know why, but a search on either Bing or Google for "posix shell" points to the older version.

Probably because it's only been out for a few months. I've found Google is fantastic at returning Python 2.6 and Python 3.7 or 3.8 documentation without jumping through hoops in my search terms (if it lists the official documentation at all rather than blogs and random tutorials), but lousy at getting anything current. I imagine they have the same problem with other new material.

But if you want the current documentation and the Apache listing format: https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9799919799/utilities/
For each session. Keys are rotated frequently, so a lot of noise could be produced. The only and one address is a good strategy for anti fingerprint though, but it is not easy to achieve for WG tunnels and pure L3 routing.

Personally I don't really get their multi hop when you connect on a predefined port on an ingress server to get redirected to egress in a different region. Easy guessable for a powerful observer.

Anyway any VPN is only an encryption tool, not an anonymizer.
It was the preferred outcome by the majority of his creditors, not by all his creditors (note that preferred != economically best). If the creditors were unanimous in their preferences, there would be no issue before the court.
>Doesn't this make it kinda pointless?

To do an audit you have to audit against some sort of pre-established criteria. That is how audits work. In security, that will typically be a standard (or set of standards) alongside a threat model. In finances, you audit against what is legal in the areas you operate.

>[...] zero idea what the auditor would be doing?

That's a practical impossibility. From the client side you want to be able to evaluate quotes, stay within a budget, etc. You don't want to pay good money (audits are really expensive!) for areas that you are works-in-progress, or non-applicable threat models (e.g. lots of security software explicitly does not protect against nation-state actors, so they don't do audits from the perspective of a nation-state actor).

From the auditor side, you want to know what staff to assign (according to their expertise), how to schedule your staff, etc.

>If Mullvad dictated how to do things or imposed limits on the reach of the testing, the results are worthless anyway

Not at all. The company says "This is the set of standards we are auditing against and our threat model. This is how we performed". The results are useful for everything covered by those standards and threat model. By explicitly stating the threat model, you as a consumer can compare your threat model to the one that was audited and make an informed decision.
> The Sealed-Bid auction should generate a price that is greater than or equal to the English Open Cry in all situations.

Do you have a source for this? I find it hard to believe standard "English" auctions would be so popular if it was true.
>Unless you think production levels would fall to pathetic levels on the global stage, and that this production-level is essential, I don't see why not.

A few reasons: 1) again, it's partly a national security issue. Under crisis, "global supply" is a concern; just ask Germany after trying to turn away from Russian fuel supply 2) Infrastructure has a relatively large lead time; we can't just ramp up production on a whim. 3) It's odd that you point to global supply as the rationale while simultaneously advocating the largest global supplier severely reduce production. Again, that feels like circular logic. Ie "The US doesn't need to produce ethanol because the world has so much ethanol production." No, the world has so much ethanol production because the US produces a disproportionate amount. Remove the latter and the argument doesn't hold.

I don't think we disagree that making food more expensive can change eating habits. I think we disagree on the most effective vehicle for that.

Look at it this way: we both seem to agree that calories are the problem. Your argument hinges on sweeteners being a proxy for calories, and HFCS being a proxy for sweeteners, and agricultural corn being a proxy for HFCS. You're targeting something that is three levels of abstraction away from what you actually care about. My position is that it makes more sense to target what you're actually after: calories.

If your stance is getting rid of corn subsidies is administratively simple compared to targeting calories, I think I disagree mainly because of the administrative burden of all the other effects we've discussed.

I don't disagree that deterrence is part of an overall strategy. I'm simply pointing out that one should be wary of the tradeoffs. Policy is about prioritizing, and IMO there are likely more pragmatic approaches with less tradeoffs that need to be managed.
EIRP adjusts the total radiated power for the antenna gain.

So if you're transmitting 1 W and your antenna has a gain of 30 dBi (1000x), that's equivalent (from the perspective of whatever it's pointed at) to an isotropic antenna (no gain) emitting 1000 W at the same distance.

It should be obvious that EIRP is what matters for interference and human safety, hence why the FCC regulates EIRP instead of power output.

Nothing he said could be construed as a call to violence by any sane and sober person. So it's moot anyway.
Real pros are busy solving real problems in my experience, taking days or weeks to craft a resume doesn't even occur to people at the top typically. I've gotten high level jobs without submitting a resume, application or almost anything else because the exec recruiters did all of the leg work for me. I think a lot of high performers are familiar with that too.
Again, that's covered by "all our products". Why do we need to be reminded that Google has a lot of users? Someone oblivious to that isn't going to care about this press release.
I haven't had to handle any scam calls or texts since I switched to Android. I had no idea the feature was so effective. They should advertise it more.
Well that, but also enhanced content (we use AI)... and then a word document you can actually edit

>is the VPN business that good?

One of my use cases for VPN is to watch free, legal anime on YouTube from Muse-Asia. I use a VPN to connect to Indonesia, which allows me to watch anime like Dandadan. a US IP won't show anything on their Youtube page. I'm using Mullvad VPN.
Their bid was essentially "something that economically feels like $100k more than the next highest bidder to people who aren't us" which is a clever contractual construction but not an auction bid.

This site is called Hacker News. It's a place where people like to tinker, poke, prod, probe things to see what it is they can do with it. It's pretty fundamental to take something and see if you can make it go to 11. There are ramifications to some of these "hacks". Knowing that and how to avoid getting caught is part of the DNA of the hacking ethos. Sometimes, your hack is harmless. Sometimes, it is slightly annoying. Sometimes, it is flat out illegal. Knowing exactly (or trying to find out) how far you can bend without breaking is part of the culture.

Once again, I say that you can push your TX higher than "accepted" and for the most part get away with it. If you push it higher to have negative consequences on other people (especially those other hackers that feel slighted) will seek to fix the glitch.

I'm really confused on how this original comment is so lost on here.
I'm not attacking you. I'm observing that when you say something "seems to be" the case, and then people with actual experience in the field speak up, perhaps it's your time to sit back and listen versus argue about how things "seem to be" to you.
It only needs to be good enough for lvl 5, then it's just regular automotive economics.
Again, please don’t put words in my mouth. That’s what both your comments are doing.

For example:
> You pointing out "its fine" makes it seem like you expect him to work on LSP, web site, marketing and everything else all by himself

How you extrapolated all that from me saying “it’s fine” is beyond me.

I’m not here to argue, just to state my opinion that both language creators are pretty nice people with some particular opinions.

I literally said that it’s fine that ols is community made. I even said it’s good that the community is willing to put in that work.

I also passed no judgement on his choice to not prioritize an LSP.

Take your outrage elsewhere, please.

Nice one - We have a similar service provided from Charity Engine, our "crowdsourced cloud service" - https://www.charityengine.com/marketplace . (Relevant docs here: https://www.charityengine.com/docs/Smart+Proxy+Service )

Of note: as Charity Engine is a general-purpose distributed compute platform, it's possible to run applications to post-process web content "at the edge" of the network, as the data is streamed back. Ex we're now running small LLMs along with the browsers, so it's possible to do things like run sentiment analysis, generate image descriptions, summarize content, etc – all at scale, enabled by hundreds of thousands of processors.

Been working on this for a bit now and would love to know what folks think about solutions like this.

Have been hearing that 360-degree videos are much more engaging for E-Commerce brands, and the tech is just starting to get good enough.

Would love any and all feedback here!

The tech behind is right now is primarily driven by CogVideo: https://github.com/THUDM/CogVideo with some post processing but been working to make it much better and scale up resolution.
I certainly understand that in any system (not just music), some rules can be broken at certain times for various reasons (safety, aesthetics, etc.). To combine what you're saying with what I was saying, I would like to see, at least in this case, a better explanation of what exceptions are commonly made to these rules (e.g. using non-standard chords) and when they are made (e.g. in music from region XYZ).

In fact, I'd argue that such explanations are critical even when you're learning any kind of theory since it tells you when the theory breaks down, whether that's because it simply doesn't fit the task, because people like to get creative, etc.
