P.S.: Lest anyone think I'm a Luddite--not that I think that appellation is actually that bad--an example where I would use an LLM would be to help me generate synonyms or alternate inputs to a more-traditional search for a discrete external piece of information.

For example, I might remember a book with a jester playing a lute and singing about ogres, and I just can't find any clear search results, because it was actually a bard strumming a harp with a poem about giants.

This is much less dangerous than just throwing every dang thing into LLM inputs (since prompt injection isn't a fluke, it's a way of life) or filtering the results back through the same model in an opaque fashion.
Fully agreed on attested bootchains. General-purpose level OS-wide attestation is indeed a blight on open computing: It's ineffective because it implies a gigantic trusted code base (what are the odds that the entire Windows kernel is completely free of vulnerabilities?), and conversely it does tie you to somebody else's more or less arbitrary kernel build.

Almost complete disagree on TPMs. A better comparison than a spy would probably be a consulate (ok, maybe an idealized one, located underground in a Faraday cage): Their staff doesn't get to spy on you, but if you ever do want to do business with companies in that country and need some letters notarized/certified, walking into their consulate in your capital sure beats sending trustworthy couriers around the world every single time.

To torture that analogy some more: Sure, the guest country could try to extend the consulate into a spy base if you're not careful, and some suspicion is very well warranted, but that possibility is not intrinsic to its function, only to its implementation.

That's a pretty huge amount of RAM even for a high performance core. The medium performance cores I've simulated use more like 300MB.

I suspect it is the Scala compilation that requires all the RAM rather Verilator or the simulator.

Head-of-line still exists in HTTP/3, but on another level. A stream can still get blocked. With websockets the whole connection gets blocked (HTTP/1), but that connection isn't shared with anything else, right?

Worth noting that HTTP/3 seems to recover faster than TCP-based protocols.

I don't believe that ideas/intellectual work should be considered property. I will concede that granting a temporary monopoly through copyright or patents can maybe be a means of incentivizing innovation and creative work, but I'm not convinced it is the only means of doing so, and the longer that monopoly lasts, the more it can have the inverse effect of stifling innovation that builds on existing innovations.
That is hypocrisy on the level of thinking buying drugs is ok but selling them is bad. You can argue about the severity of the behavior, but if you are drawing moral lines in the sand, buyer and seller are always on the same side.

The inability of executive agencies to create regulations will extend beyond one presidential administration. Given that conservative administrations tend to favor cutting regulations anyway, this jurisprudence will likely impact liberal administrations more than conservative ones.

Would xpipe be a candidate? It’s also quite feature packed, but i was pleasantly surprised how nicely it got out of my way
Yes, definitely.

It likely won't work for all kinds of books. I don't think I'd want to listen to an audio book of Thinking, Fast and Slow for example.

But for fiction and certain non-fiction, it can be a great experience. In fact, for fiction it is now my preferred mode of consumption. There are books (e.g. Ancillary Justice) that I know I would have not finished if I were reading the book directly (for various reasons). But the audio book narration was so good I stuck to it.

It really depends on what your goals for reading are. If you're reading a heavy nonfiction book where you want to annotate, etc, then obviously it won't work.

If you're simply trying to absorb a story or gain information, it works as well as a regular book. You will likely rewind often, though. It sounds a lot worse than it is, but you get used to it quickly.
I think their point was that it can still be rational to buy the item that is 20% cheaper but will break in 50% of the time. Additionally, lots of people will choose to buy the worse option because they like it's branding or whatever other irrational reason.
Maybe they do, TCP hole punching is like a duel in a way. You are right tho, my spelling is horrible. Hope my message above doesn't come off in bad taste. I should be happy for the OP I guess.
I know it's largely personal preference but are there any strongly compelling reasons to use iTerm2 over stock Terminal on macOS in 2025? Despite recommendations, I've been wary of security and privacy issues much like this SSH bug.

> The average app developer doesn't truly care what device you use, they just want to cut out abuse and fraud, which are real problems that do require effective solutions.

I don't doubt that. But the price of attestation, if it's not properly isolated from the hosting OS (like Microsoft's completely unrealistic attempts of bringing the whole OS into the trusted computing base, kernel and applications and all), would be a homogeneity of computing I don't think is necessarily worth the benefits.

The good news is that such proper isolation is not only possible but even desirable (it keeps the trusted computing base small), and if done well could actually replace annoying half-measures such as "root detection": Who cares if my phone is rooted, as long as my bank's secure transaction confirmation application is running in a trusted, isolated enclave, for example?

I'm not saying you're wrong, but in the context of travel, I would suggest most people use the VPN because they don't trust the networks they're connecting to, more than wanting to avoid surveillance, which would apply without the travel component.

I also can't think of one of the popular VPNs that get heavily advertised that I'd trust to actually protect my privacy.

It is personal to creators because honey paid a lot of them generously over the years to work with .

It is not the industry is shady that made honey standout, it is the fact that they were paying the people to pick from their own pockets is what got YT creators railed up.

It is being singled out, because without that heavy creator promotion they wouldn’t have grown anywhere close to the size they were last month. They have already last 3+ millions on Chrome web store in December .

For what it's worth, you're making a common parlance argument against statutory interpretation. Every word in the statute counts, and here it appears to have turned on the definition of an information service as something that offers a capability, whether or not its core function involves using that capability, as well as usage of the term "information service" elsewhere in federal law that clearly included ISPs.

Complete I would say. However Mac uses GNU software from around 2006, since around that time a lot of GNU software switched from GPLv2 to GPLv3.
That means Mac ships GNU screen version 4 from 2006, while latest version is 5.
Except that most people don't bother starring stuff, so the few who do are drowned by noise of fake stars.
> "Operating systems" do not operate anything anymore.

Not entirely fair. There is still a kernel and a privileged userspace layer. That hasn't changed. The OS implements a common API that abstracts over ISAs and other finnicky hardware details that are under constant short term churn.

It's just that peripherals themselves have become so incredibly complex that many of them now require their own embedded systems in order to operate. The hardware was always a black box it's just that now it contains an entire embedded OS.
Officially it is mandatory 3 days in office per week at Google, but if your manager / director / VP ignore auto-generated emails about your misbehavior, you can coast on less.
Well, 95% of people on HN know about uBlock Origin and Sponsorblock, so why are you telling me to preach to the choir instead of saying my original point? I was making fun of how GP sounds exactly like a PR person, not saying that affiliate marketing is good for society. Even if you're a hardliner against advertising, you can recognize that not literally everyone is a shill (e.g., most metric-based reviewers). And even if it's harmful at a societal level that some random YouTuber discussing a movie also shills dropshipped razors, you wouldn't say that mugging them is actually good.

It's like crypto - it's environmentally harmful and facilitates ransomware with minimal benefits, but I wouldn't be okay with someone showing up in the comments saying it's totally fine to steal someone's shitcoins with malware (though laughing about it is fine). It seems that you wanted to make a point about the post itself and used my comment as a launching point, which is fine, but don't accuse me of white knighting.

Probably worth noting that Ghostty was very recently vulnerable to an old/familiar class of terminal vuln that bit a bunch of older terminal applications a while back: https://dgl.cx/2024/12/ghostty-terminal-title

So moving to a newer / less "bloated" terminal may also just wind the clock back and cause you to encounter a similar sequence of vulns again, like some kind of unfortunate real-world "New Game Plus".

I'm done with iTerm2.

This was a great terminal when it was basically Terminal.app + missing features but over the past years it has grown into the proveribal "Kitchen Sink" and now does SO MANY things that I just don't care about.

iTerm2 has become a huge app with many many knobs and levers and all kinds of functionality and integrations. I am not surprised at all that (security) bugs are found. More code, features, integrations means more potential for security issues.

I switched to Ghostty, yes which had a security issue last week!, but at least it is a pretty minimal app with so far no intent to meet iTerm2 in terms of functionality.
Oh, okay so the solution is as easy as "congress has to do a thing". Meaning it will never happen.
norway was almost full EV purchases last year. cold weather issues are totally exacerbated.

also, i drove in a tesla, and the number of cameras doing weird and confusing things with bad perspectives weirded me out. i don't know why, but it just felt wrong, and too much information on the screen too. like they tried to do every technical thing just because.

and if you don't think musk is a danger, idk what to tell you. either you support him or you just don't care about human life.

Everything I said are basic facts about plastic chemistry you can verify yourself, but I can elaborate more if that is helpful.

If you'd like a more specific example of what I am talking about, take for example Bisphenol A (BPA), one of the monomers used in making polycarbonate - which most people have heard of, and has now been eliminated from consumer products like water bottles (edited per correction from reply below). It is chemically similar enough to steroid hormones, that it can bind to steroid hormone receptors (in particular estrogen receptors), making it a potential endocrine disruptor. HDPE does not contain complex functional groups that are likely to mimic natural hormones and bind to receptors or enzyme active sites in a living system.

In general, molecules that contain a lot of aromatic rings, or reactive functional groups are more likely to exhibit drug like effects or toxicity. Such properties are systematically enriched for in chemical libraries used for drug discovery, but if trying to avoid unintended biological effects, it makes sense to exhibit more caution with such molecules.
LOL at the “luxury” faux wood floors. I know the feeling, my previous condo was like that. The marketing is absurd these days.

Expand your horizons. Home ownership rates are very high in states like Vermont, Minnesota, and Idaho. Outside of a handful of bad neighborhoods those are nice places to live and hardly overrun with loonies. That fact that you would even mention that as a concern indicates a weird, insular attitude and disconnection from objective reality.

RTO or lack thereof isn't very relevant one way or the other. Fully remote work is a great option for some employees but it simply isn't possible for the vast majority of jobs. Most employees have to occasionally be in a certain physical place it order to interact with other people or use specialized equipment or follow security rules.
I did the same. Although, Ghostty doesn't seem to have support for Find (⌘-F), yet. Also, had some minor hiccups with it and tmux on remote hosts.
It’s weird how volatile the stock is. Once a stock is known to be volatile, does this tend to produce a self sustaining volatility from games played on top of the stock, such as increased day trading volume?

I feel like the actual market assessment of Tesla’s prospects does not actually change as much and as quickly as the stock movement suggests.
That quote may sound vaguely creepy, but fundamentally he's got a good point. The most brutal wars tend to be wars where both sides are roughly evenly matched. WW1 and WW2 were so deadly because both alliances consisted of several industrialized nations. We're lucky that we haven't seen total war between major industrial powers since that time: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DwKPFT-RioU
I tried Ghostty earlier in the week, but couldn’t get it set up to look the same as iterm2 (the colours are off and text looks different somehow with the same typeface at the same size). Which is just cosmetic but makes it feel wrong viscerally.

I’ll give it another go at the weekend.
Vivek Ramaswamy recently said that we need "more movies like Whiplash, fewer reruns of Friends."
