I don't think I disagree with you about what courts can do. And (as shown by all the back and forth in the CAB thread, and now here), it is risky: we currently have a situation where CAs can find themselves in a position where taking court-mandated actions (or lack of actions) puts them in jeopardy with the CAB, and violating court orders puts them in jeopardy with the government.

For all the back and forth in the CAB thread, it doesn't seem we're any closer to finding an escape valve for that, which seemingly would have to come from the CAB because there isn't even really a mechanism for courts to decide not to issue TROs about cert revocation, short of somehow taking a case around this to the Supreme Court (which isn't going to happen).

beef jerky:

"There’s a plastic bag to discard and one of those weird silica gel packets you can’t eat. I rate this 4 out of 5 because it creates plastic trash, but par for the course."

olives:

"Their wetness makes you unable to use your keyboard without washing your hands. Plus they produce pits, which need to be stored in an additional bowl. I love olives, but their logistics score would be zero."

the two are in my eyes almost equivalent, you need to wash your hands after eating jerky, and it has (worse) waste, yet one scores much higher than the other.

They didn't make all parties whole. Purchasers were deprived of access until making another purchase for which they had to expend at least some effort and time. And let's not talk about inflation and interest that mean the the price paid at purchase is not the same as the amount of additional money the buyer would have had at the time of the refund had they never made the purchase. Just returning the purchase price is far from makign a buyer whole. If I rob a bank and get caught and don't get to simply say oops and walk away scott free after returning the money.

Show HN: ReadVocab – Turn English books into vocabulary flashcards
Hi HN! I'm Mahmoud, and I built ReadVocab to solve a problem I faced while learning English: the frustrating experience of constantly interrupting reading to look up words.

ReadVocab turns popular English books into pre-made flashcard sets, organized by chapter. It includes:

- Audio pronunciation for each word
- Contextual sentences from the book
- Multiple definitions and translations
- Spaced repetition system for efficient learning
- 20+ books available (growing weekly based on community votes)

The project took 2 years to develop. It's designed to help intermediate learners (B1-C1) complete a 400-page book in about 2 months while mastering 1000+ new words.

Try it out: http://readvocab.com/?via=HN

I'd love to hear your feedback, especially from fellow language learners or those teaching English!

Its great at implementing functions.

But NOT great at implementing non-toy programs according to a complex spec.

Govt spending as a share of GDP is probably a good measure of how involved the government is in the economy. There are arguments that too much government involvement leads to stagnation, which considering many of the economies the US regularly out-grows have higher share of govt spending as a % of GDP has some merit. Its an interesting economic question what level that would be which changes depending on how you approach the problem.

> Your comments about plankton evolving to survive ocean acidification suggest you have more faith in single-celled organisms than in most software companies.

Well, yeah?!
According to this post the only people who care about not being tracked are running bots and fraudsters.
I mean you're going to tell me that this a rehash of what the Stack Overflow people told you but the reason this is a warning is because the external name is meant to aid in readability but the internal name is the one that is actually operated on, so the latter is the one that is actually relevant when documenting what the thing actually is. It would be unreasonable to write documentation for a parameter called "in" (internal name: range) or "behind" (internal name: window). So yeah, you're holding it wrong. If you disagree you should do one of two things:

1. Ask for a way to use the external name as documentation. (This is not a serious suggestion, because if you go do this people will laugh at you and tell you to stop doing that. But you could do it.)

2. Ask for a way to turn off warnings. (This is a reason suggestion, I actually want this. Unfortunately the answer that you really want is "no you can't do this".)
There is no such thing as tacit consent.
Yeah, the readability difference is immense. I worked for years with Pandas and I still cannot "scan" it as quickly as with a "normal" programming language or SQL. Then there's the whole issue with (multi)-indexes, serialisation, etc.

Polars makes programming fun again instead of a chore.
I'm British and think Elon Musk does a lot of cool things. I don't really care about what he does in American politics, I actually think the idea that government needs to stop wasting money is a good thing.

But he tries to influence European/British politics without living here, often believing mistruths or things out of context. Americans moan (rightfully so) when Europeans try get involved in their politics, but are happy to do the reverse.

Regarding Tesla, the UK/EU is going to make zero effort to protect Tesla from Chinese imports that the US will. Musk has burned that bridge.
>I use stars - as bookmarks. Am I doing it wrong?

Nope. Github stars are intended to be used the way you've described:

The Lost Feedback
> they know your personal address

There's a huge difference between having my home address, which a lot of people do, and observing my activity all day while I'm in the privacy of my home.

To turn it around, Apple publishes its own corporate address but is extremely secretive about what goes on inside the building and does not appreciate leaks.

> apple is possibly phoning home to App Store Connect to secretly record every time a developer launches a project? it sounds a bit strangely conspiratorial

It's not a conspiracy. It's just a complete disregard for developer privacy from a company that claims "privacy is a human right". There's a difference between doing something bad on purpose and doing something bad simply because you don't give a crap about the effects.

> I understand this is just one of those things that some people decide to care a lot about, and in some cases it makes a lot of sense, but not this one.

Privacy aside, do you care about slow builds?
> I wouldn't like to be SpaceX seeking new government contracts under the next Democratic administration.

I think the limits of government contracts are why they've diversified into Starlink. Even without political aspects (which Musk may not have planned correctly for), the global mobile broadband market is just bigger than the pot of money governments want to spend on spying and weather forecasts.

What may well mess him up that side is that even if he gets a monopoly in the USA satellite broadband industry, China has no reason to sit back and just allow US dominance over their geopolitical zones of influence, and will fund their own. Even aside from Kessler cascade risks (I have absolutely no idea how far away that really is), the competition risk is real.
I’d love to see more spatial sql applied. As a side effect tbh your code may get shorter. Even though R and Python are type go-to langs for ML, it is SQL which excels at spatial analysis.

Hybrids weren't making a dent in the ICE car market, whereas EVs are:

https://ti-insight.com/briefs/have-internal-combustion-engin...

It's just that we don't see it in the geopolitical west, as it's all happening in China, which is currently by far the single largest passenger vehicle market in the world.

Personally I drive a hybrid because that was the most electrified car I could afford back in 2017.

Show HN: Permit.io AI Access Control – Fine Grained Permissions for AI Apps
Hi HN, I'm Gabriel, VP of DevRel at Permit.io. We keep hearing from AI developers that there’s no simple way to enforce access control in AI workflows—so most either build permission logic for their AI implementation from scratch.

To help with this, we are introducing Permit.io AI Access Control - a set of new integrations with PydanticAI, LangChain, MCP, and LangFlow that allow you to easily implement fine-grained authorization (FGA) into AI applications.

These integrations allow developers to enforce structured prompt validation before inputs reach AI models, control AI access to RAG data sources, apply identity-based permissions to AI-driven actions and decisions, and apply filtering to AI-generated responses.

I’d love to hear about how you’ve been handling access control in your AI applications, and what you think about his solution.

Ugh, please stop calling this a "mandate". You don't have a mandate when you weren't even able to secure 50% of the total votes, and your main opponent only trailed you by a percentage point and a half.

I think if Biden had decided up-front that he wouldn't seek re-election, and the Democrats had been able to field a real primary, Trump may not have won. Instead we had an old man making blunder after blunder during his campaign, followed by a not-all-that-popular replacement that no one selected through the primary process, who only had a few short months to put a campaign together. Frankly I think it's impressive Harris did as well as she did.

"Mandate"... oh, please.

The finite element analyisis that used to be done long hand, is truely intimidating in its complexity, but is still with us, in current sofware. And yes there has been mountains of work done comparing sofware predictions, with wind tunnel tests, and experimental airfoils in service, but those still remain less than ideal.
And that this is the first work at revising these primary calculations in a generation, does speak to the skill and determination of the student who has done that work. Work that is so difficult, that ,just doing it put her in an elite class, and finishing it to the satisfaction of her professors and colegues, should be good enough for the rest of us, to at least wait paitently for the next step.

At what point did the Awesome-lists purpose change from "Here's stuff I personally verified to be pretty awesome" to "Here's a list of stuff I came across when searching but I have no idea about the quality of stuff"?

Not that having some sort of collection/index is bad or anything, it's just way less useful than a curated list of things you actually find "awesome" and related to some topic.

For the ones who weren't around at the "creation" of awesome-lists, this I think is the origin: https://github.com/sindresorhus/awesome/blob/main/awesome.md

> If you want your list to be included on awesome, try to only include actual awesome stuff in your list. After all, it's a curation, not a collection.

Today, the name remains, but not for curation.

Because you get the convenience of having a document store with a schema defined outside of the DB if you want it, along with the strong guarantees and semantics of SQL.
Yeah, you can look at it that way, but API documentation is for external users, and I prefer to reduce the number of inline comments, inside the function, which is not where the external users will be going, anyway.

Most folks will only care about the external name. The internal name is for maintainers. It not only indicates the value is a constant, it also tells you that it has not been altered since entering the function body, and that's pretty important. The "in" prefix regularly saves me from assigning the unprocessed value, instead of one that has had some conditioning applied.

No matter. As long as the warning doesn't bork the build, I can live with it.

I could probably provide protocols for API documentation, but protocols have their own issues[0].

I love designing posters for thé love of it. AI helps me learn new shortcuts or suggest tools, helps me delete this or that, but essentially - my appreciation for the process comes from actually moving things around myself and having a say myself.

With generative art/writing, well honestly - the author is very very limited in what he can command the NN do and particularly if the author has a string vision.

Same for music - I wouldn’t let AI arrange my Renoise tracks, I’d love to do it myself. Is love to create the VCV patches by carefully tuning each knob. And particularly when I actually know/imagine/envision how it should sound.

It takes understanding of underlying tech and love for the work. Love - very important.

For people lacking vision and creativity, those in a hurry, those under pressure to do shitjobs they hate - it idées may be better to use AI. But not for the real artist.
