Although I feel like I am a bit confused.

When they say “reduced by lot” then mean by a lottery? By that same original boy or something else?

They also talked about needing approval from electors, I assume that was from the previous small pool. Can’t exactly determine who they mean.

Show HN: End-to-end encrypted enterprise messenger
Hey Hackernews, I'm the co-founder of Mention, an end-to-end encrypted enterprise messenger.

Right now if you are using Slack or MS Teams, your communications data is getting fed into an AI model. Even if you click their "opt out" to train external models, they cleverly leave out the fact that they can still train their internal models. This was a good discussion here recently.
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40383978

Slack AI leaks are already happening. Read about this recent breach
https://www.theregister.com/2024/08/21/slack_ai_prompt_injec...

Marc Benioff himself is making the claim that AI capabilities aren't what matter, but that the data is what matters. As a provider of enterprise software. WHERE ARE THEY GETTING THAT DATA FROM?
https://x.com/Benioff/status/1764747295822893335

We believe that Artificial Intelligence is amazing and will lead to an interesting, prosperous future. Simultaneously, we believe that there should be an ecosystem of end-to-end encrypted software for those who can't afford to give external access to their data, whether that be to the service provider, or an AI.

When we introduce AI features, it will be sovereign and air-gapped on on your own servers.

If there was just one CA then there would be no CABforum and users would have no leverage. This is the situation in DNSSEC. I don't think it's that bad, as one can always run one's own . and use QName minimization, but still, com. and such TLDs would be very powerful intermediate CAs themselves. And yet I still like DNSSEC/DANE as you know, except maybe I'm liking the DNAE+WebPKI combo more. And I don't fear "too few CAs" either because the way I figure it if the TLAs compromise one CA, they can and will compromise all CAs.
Wow, I had no idea. For all I know that's true in Canada too, I'm not an expert on Canadian insurance law, but I was under the impression that suicide was never covered anywhere. Thanks for correcting me!
The problem I have with LTSC is that it's specifically for Enterprise customers. Sure you can download a copy of Win10 LTSC but you're never going to be running it as a "legit customer".

People don’t seem to be benefiting in a uniform way from the “solid” economy we have had for awhile. We just had an election about this where there was a disagreement as to whether the economy was “solid” or not.
You also need some foundation in Linear Algebra if you want to have better formal understanding of its underlying framework( which is Hilbert Space).
I don't know that, but the LLM might be able to make that judgement. If it's involved in the compression process, it can choose to drop cruft from the middle. Maybe "summarise then compress" is a better description.

Same, I have occupational lenses that are also focused to arms length, and it has made a huge difference for me as well when using it for reading things on my computer screens. It makes reading small text easier and feels crisp.

Using it outside of its intended distance will cause eye strain since your eyes won't be able to focus properly.

My provider calls them "computer glasses". It does not have blue light filtering as I do work with implementing web designs and color accuracy does matter to me.

I totally recommend computer glasses for anyone who works all day looking at a computer screen.

They would be a separate prescription / lens type (as in not progressive I think) compared to daily use glasses. I do have to swap to my daily use when not using my computer glasses outside of sitting and looking at a monitor.

Using my daily use for computer monitor reading doesn't feel "right" compared to my computer glasses. There is a clear difference between them.
And again, There is no cloud, only someone else's computer.
I've been in the insider beta program since the beginning and I don't really have a good reason other than I live on the edge

Not really. A single group of people controls every level of the federal government, tacitly supported by every major social media and major media group in the country. There’s no reason they would fear a protest, especially knowing how easy it is, over the next 18 months, to propagandize people into staying home.

Who do you think the people “below the people in power” are, and why would they have any reason to fear anything but a purity test from someone even further to the right?

> Yea what you're replying to is just pure fat-logic

I can't even imagine what that's supposed to mean.

> However, when cutting weight, you can do a routine that maintains/builds muscle as you cut, to reduce the effect.

I literally talked about staying physically active.

The point is, you're going to have however much muscle your workouts and physical activity build/maintain. And you're going to lose whatever extra muscle isn't needed in your workouts. And that's fine, because you probably want well-balanced strength rather than legs that can carry around 300 lbs all day long.

None of this has anything to do with weight loss, except that simply walking around and daily movement becomes less of a workout as you lose weight because you're moving less mass. But it's not the weight loss directly that makes you lose muscle (assuming you're eating protein), it's the reduced physical strain because you weigh less so you're not needing those muscles. Do you get the distinction?

You don't need to work out even more to "reduce the effect" as you say. There's no effect. There's just working out to have whatever muscles you want. Weight loss will never lead to losing the level of muscle you need for your workout.

well, given the right conditions and enough heat...
Depending on one's threat model, any technique can be a secure strategy.

Is my threat model a network of dumb nodes doing automatic port scanning? Tucking a system on an obscure IPv6 address and never sharing the address may work OK. Running some bespoke, unauthenticated SSH-over-Carrier-Pigeon (SoCP) tunnel may be fine. The adversaries in the model are pretty dumb, so intrusion detection is also easy.

But if the threat model includes any well-motivated, intelligent adversary (disgruntled peer, NSA, evil ex-boyfriend), it will probably just annoy them. And as a bonus, for my trouble, it will be harder to maintain going forward.
In the short term yes, but I think other companies/countries would get there eventually.

No and I don't care to know about your politics. You seem so keen to tell me mine.

I'd be very weary of the "wisdom of crowds" fallacy. That is some very wet sand to build a house or argument on. And actually shows how relevant the previous comment of mine is. The attitude towards the war is the same as attitudes around CV19 very unhealthy in terms of discourse and built on emotion not fact. Emotion is important but doesn't put bread on the table.

Also, omg a typo... I warn you avoid irc if that offends your sensibilities "m8".
Right, but there is a free rider problem. Why should a company spend $100 million doing clinical trials to get FDA approval if once it is approved, all other companies can sell it, even though they didn't pay anything? Even if every actor in the market thinks there will be a good return on investment if they get FDA approval, there is a strong incentive to instead wait for someone else to do it and free ride on them. The result is no one acts.

Clinical trials are a significant expense in developing a drug. Kind of makes me think we should award patents not for coming up with some molecule, but instead award them for showing a molecule is safe and effective.

Self-experiment: Creatine and reaction time
The body needs protein to function (the body is partially built out of protein, and also proteins perform many important functions in the body), and it cannot be synthesized from fat or carbs. The body also has no store of protein. This means that outside of dietary protein, breaking down muscles is the only option.

Secondary to that, the body needs some amount of glucose. The best option for that is stored glycogen. When those stores run out the body can enter ketosis which reduces but does not eliminate the need for glucose. Fat consists of three fatty acids joined by a glycerol part. Most of the energy is in the fatty acids, but the glycerol can serve as a limited supply of glucose. However that is not really sufficient, so to get more glucose, and the other option is breaking down protein.
It hasn't been possible for ages. I haven't tried on 11 but on 10 you can switch your region to somewhere in the EU and that will allow you to delete the folders. I couldn't get the actual uninstaller to run, and I'm not sure if it will come back in the next update after the region has been switched back, but this is the only method I found that worked.
How Trump's '51st State' Canada Talk Came to Be Seen as Deadly Serious
> You can make an argument that, since you do not choose the society you are born into, there is no justifiable moral argument in having other's decisions about rights and obligations imposed upon you.

You do not choose to be born, so that argument is nonsensical on its face and leads to absurd antinatalist conclusions. Instead, each person should work to their own benefit. You can benefit more by living in a society than by living on your own as long as you set up society in such a way that you benefit from it instead of suffer from it. That means accounting for externalities, preventing abuse of power, raising the next generation to also be civically minded, the whole nine yards.
It did, but I kinda went over the top with it once and dang had to tell me off, so it might be they added filtering.
I have a prescription for "office glasses" which have been great.

What went wrong with Horizon Worlds? Ex-Meta dev shares insider insights
After writing about Meta’s highly misguided $50 million bounty for developers to create content in Horizon Worlds, a former software engineer at Horizon Worlds reached out to me. They had read my latest book, where I devote a chapter to Meta’s many missteps in trying to build the Metaverse.

But this engineer had even more surprising details to share.

I’ve always believed the fundamental problem is that Meta leadership never truly understood the metaverse concept, and simply treated it like a 3D version of Facebook. In interviews for the book, it also became clear to me that most of the people working on Horizon Worlds weren’t themselves experienced or passionate about virtual worlds.

Indeed, in 2022, Meta leadership sent out an internal memo requiring employees to dogfood Horizon Worlds more (i.e. actually play it).

It was actually worse than that, this ex-developer tells me. Required to dogfood their own virtual world, the engineer tells me, many Meta staffers automated their dogfooding:

"Before I left they were mandating that employees spend a certain number of hours per week in the game actively playing it. So therein started an automation war where all the people with 200 hours a week never actually played the game once. People just had to launch the game with an Android command over USB, then make sure the proximity sensor on the headset was taped to keep it on."

Yes: Instead of playing Horizon Worlds, developers of Horizon Worlds at Meta figured out a hack where they could just pretend to do so.

Meta’s assumptions were evident even on the code level, with Meta treating the Metaverse as a 3D version of a mobile app:

"Horizon Worlds / Workrooms, etc. is a pretty awful codebase with hundreds of people working on it. They grabbed a bunch of people from the Facebook/Instagram half of the company because they knew React. Horizon Worlds uses a VR version of that called ReactVR.

"What this effectively means is that most of the people developing Horizon Worlds (HW) are 2D app developers driven by engagement metrics and retention numbers. So... HW became flooded with a ton of 2D developers who never put on the headset even test their menus, all competing to try to create the most 'engaging' menu that would sell microtransactions, or drive social engagement, or make some other number look good - because that's WHAT THEY DO at Facebook/Instagram."

"All of this is made possible with the inclusion of frame pointers in all of Meta’s user space binaries, otherwise we couldn’t walk the stack to get all these addresses (or we’d have to do some other complicated/expensive thing which wouldn’t be as efficient)"

This makes things so, so, so much easier. Otherwise, a lot of effort has to built into creating an unwinder in ebpf code, essentially porting .eh_frame cfa/ra/bp calculations.

They claim to have event profilers for non-native languages (e.g. python). Does this mean that they use something similar to https://github.com/benfred/py-spy ? Otherwise, it's not obvious to me how they can read python state.

Lastly, the github repo https://github.com/facebookincubator/strobelight is pretty barebones. Wonder when they'll update it

No, just removing weapons doesn't foster peace. That is earned through working together and having socioeconomic shared interests, which ironically the people not the politicians have.

And at no point is unilateral disarmament sensible, that is capitulation. But arming one side to the teeth and walking away after peace just leads to more violence. It's the basis of so many sci-fi stories and clearly what has happened in recent post WW2 history. It's a bad idea.

Edit: also just ploughing in weapons wouldn't give peace or this conversation would be mute and people wouldn't be dying. Clearly a balance needs to be achieved.
Counter armoured vehicle weapons for Ukraine is sensible and clearly worked in the opening hours without giving them ambition of hitting Russia in advance.
>hopefully this leads to a surge in polite programming

But not too polite. The compiler wouldn't like that.
The better thing to do for this case is to only check the code signing certificate's validity at install time rather than every time you run the code. Then you don't have to have boundlessly growing CRLs. In general checking code signatures at run-time is just a perf-killing waste of resources. Ideally secure, measured boot would also measure the OS filesystems you're booting, and that kinda requires a content-addressed storage copy-on-write type filesystem such that you can seal boot/keys to a root hash of the root filesystem, but here we are in 2025 and we don't quite have that yet. ZFS comes closest, though it's not a CAS FS, but somehow the last mile of this never got implemented by anyone in any operating system.
The version is just an atomic integer assigned to that btree node which is monotonically increasing. Each writer increases the version when it releases the lock IF it has modified the node.

Wraparounds are only a theoretical issue. There would have to be exactly UINT64_MAX writers between a reader first checking the version and verifying the version.
There is nothing truly "objective", since everything has to be viewed through human lenses that are by their very nature subjective.

Just as we cannot actually perceive objective reality, we cannot truly take actions based on objective data, as the mere act of viewing and interpreting that data is inherently subjective.
CDC Launches New Conflict of Interest Disclosures Portal
I understand if you don't want to disclose this, but I'm very curious. Can you give a rough estimate of how much your Glacier Deep Archive usage costs?
I'm not questioning whether it would be worth it. I'm questioning how that would work, and am very much open to being wrong here. I just don't see how it would work.

For example... let's say I bet a trillion dollars that the Canadian Communist Party (a party on the extreme fringes that few Canadians even realize exists) would NOT win the election. How would that incentive lead to them winning? What could anyone do to make that reality happen in order to claim the money?

That's not to say there aren't other ways to use money to influence an election. Of course there is. But you need to spend it in the run-up to the election, not offer it as a prize afterwards.

Am I being naive? (A: Probably. Wouldn't be the first time.)
That's too incredible to be true. I'd love to quote it though - where does it come from?
Property didn't just appear in your hands out of thin air. Unless maybe you appeared naked on a deserted island and made everything yourself from scratch. It's only "your" property because of the social structures that make it so.

Touché.

I do feel like title IX suffers from the same problem that gay marriage did, insofar as it was a “win” that was very quantifiable, easy to implement, and almost comically far off from the kinds of change that was being asked for. Great, women can play college football, but what about addressing women-specific concerns, or funding programs that are heavily preferred by women?

I absolutely am not arguing against title IX, only to say that it is actually a great example of the kind of sterilization and heavy handedness that happens when the government gets involved.

An even better example to your point though might be the ADA. A giant pain in the ass to every business owner and contractor, but ultimately great for society.
I've said my reasons why I think Russia may be satisfied with the eastern oblasts and not seek more.

Exactly the same reasons apply to other oblasts of Ukraine as well (land bridge to Transnistria), and to Poland and Lithuania (land bridge to Kaliningrad).
What's the reason behind this? If agents can code, doesn't that effectively take away your job as an engineer and even your work? I mean, if I can use your agent to build myself your company, how are you going to survive in the future?
