Ah, but you see, they need to go to the Apple store and buy an Apple product, then with no clicking at all the app will work.

If they go to a different store, and buy a non-Apple product, that's insecure. What they need to do is return it and go to the Apple store and buy an Apple product. That's secure. Give the money to Apple.
Look Eric,

I had and loved Pebble in the past. You sold us and ditched us first chance you got.

Why would we trust you now?

The comment effectively says "wake up to yourself, this nonsense isn't welcome".

Some things are self evidently stupid, cynical and/or disingenuous to anyone with a modicum of intelligence and a cursory understanding of the field.

Use your hall monitoring energy to add value. The type of post I call out here reduces the value of the forum.
no we didn’t. we voted to keep illegal immigrants out. literally nobody has a problem with immigrants using legal methods.
Yes. But you have to convince me that it is false (of course)[0]. I'm actually happy to tell you what I think the best way to do that would be. Would I get angry? Probably not, but it is hard to know.

In fact, this is even how I review papers. I am much more detailed than my peers, and get very specific. I always also include a list at the end detailing what factors are the most important and what I think the authors could do to change my mind (if I'm rejecting). If I'm accepting, I'll also argue my points to the other reviewers and make them stand for their arguments.

Truthfully, if no one is willing to change their minds, I'd say they can't be a scientist. It is a fundamental requirement simply because we are all wrong and all the time. While we can get ever and ever closer to it, absolute truth is fundamentally unobtainable. So you must always be able to update your beliefs, or else you will become more wrong as time marches on.

[0] I also recognize that the inability to convince me does not mean I am right and the other person is wrong. But this too is why I specifically make a point to try to help the other person. At least as long as I believe they are acting in good faith. If I am wrong then I WANT to know. I take no shame in being wrong, but I take a lot of shame in being unwilling to right myself.
> preventing full compatibility with third party watches

What law in any country requires this? Apple is not a public utility and people don't have rights to access.

> the argument you're making is that the automakers purposely cause their filters to be incompatible to limit competition

No I'm not making that argument. I am arguing that incompatibility is there, could be resolved if the companies chose to. The incompatibility persists and is not illegal. It has nothing to do with anticompetitive behavior. Apple being incompatible with third party watches should be the same- the incompatibility could be changed, but it is not illegal. Just because some people wish things were different doesn't make it illegal or immoral.
theres no need to wrestle with pigs
Couldn't the same argument be made for photography? You aren't making the image, the camera is doing all the work.
Don't try and "both sides" this.
Yup. And more than that, Israel picks the brightest high-school kids to join their special school that trains intelligence officers. The kids learn advanced STEM and analytics in the school. It's not a coincidence that many of the graduates ended up founding good companies.
Well, I didn't want to copy the whole thing, I wanted to select and copy it myself, as is standard and expected. I don't want a handy search button that sends me to google, either, since I don't use google. If you keep on helping me to do things I didn't want to, I'll have a user experience.
If you want to do and fight, use Linux. Apple made their intentions clear decades ago.
Eric, thank you. Lurking in the forum answering questions evokes people to share their opinion for satisfaction and dissatisfaction and often neglectes to evoke praise (proportionally). I am guilty of this too.

So please have some well deserved praise for your work on this. We have gotten an open source wearable OS, purpose built hardware, R&D, a community, more pressure on Apple to be less of a gatekeeper, and something we can own in a crazy short timeframe. I hope you see this despite it being buried. Thank you, you glorious nerd.

1. Ignore the haters.

2. Sell or trade in the desktop for a laptop. Portability and space is your friend. Join a local Facebook "buy nothing" group, and ask for a trade or someone's spare old laptop. Any mobility improvement is a win.

3. Immediately make a free account for Salesforce's Trailhead program https://trailhead.salesforce.com/ and start learning everything you can. Badges can be added to your linkedin, and you should go heavy down the path of force.com development if you can.

4. Once you have a few badges, polish up your linkedin (and resume) and start spamming recruiters for salesforce positions.

The ERP/CRM world pays very well but almost all platforms have a stupidly high barrier to entry, EXCEPT Salesforce. You could have a $100k/yr job in a few months if you follow this path, and then branch out to Oracle or NetSuite or SAP from here.

edits (consolidating advice here for posterity):

I should add that ERP/CRM consulting is largely remote friendly and your prospective employers/consulting firms will probably not give a rip where you live. They never did for me.

Find a coworking space (NOT a chain one like WeWork) in your town. Talk to the owner and explain your situation, ask for a month or two discount while you get your bearings and attend every meetup they have or know about. Meet everyone, tell your story, share your skills. A small community will help take care of you in ways a Chamber of Commerce chapter will not.

If you are not religious, look for an Oddfellows chapter. They may be a resource to you in a similar way as a church congregation.

And if you have skills but they are outdated, you're now competing with every unemployed junior, fresh grad, and old coder on the market. Update your skill set, and ideally focus on skills that are in higher demand and with higher barrier to entry or with a captive audience/market. Differentiating will help with jobseeking.

For extra side income, attend garage/yard/rummage sales and focus on books. Books are great to flip, because you can immediately appraise the quality, scan the ISBN number to find the going rate, and only buy it to flip if it's worth enough.

> signed a broad executive order last Friday that puts libraries in existential danger by dismantling the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) which supports and funds libraries and museums all across America [...] more than 120,000 libraries across the country receive nearly $200 million in funds from the IMLS. The loss of this funding will have a brutal impact

At this point, the tendency we can foresee will be more than a brain drain.

# Trump Moves to Dismantle Federal Institute That Supports Museums and Libraries // We're tracking the impact of President Donald Trump's recent executive orders and policy changes on the arts

> According to AAM’s advocacy page, IMLS supports “aquariums, arboretums, art museums, botanical gardens, children’s museums, culturally-specific museums, historic sites, history museums, military museums, natural history museums, nature centers, planetariums, railway museums, science and technology centers, zoos, and more”

Yeah I'm a little torn on this one. I generally think that much of IP law causes more harm than good, so in the abstract I'm in favor of copyright being weaker. But in this specific case, given the context of existing copyright law and its intent it seems pretty obvious to me that he should have copyright over the photo.

I don't think it's analogous to AI art though - no other humans creative input and therefore livelihood was ever involved in the process, and it's not like monkeys have any use for money or ownership of intellectual property. (Although the hypothetical situation where you assign the monkeys personhood and give them a bunch of royalties to pay for a better habitat and piles of bananas would be pretty cool.)
I'm sure they did. However, intentionality neither makes it consumer friendly nor beneficial from a marketing perspective.
Just thinking and putting some thoughts out.

I guess the question is when does accountability stop? If a company and its descendant employees and products are built on an evil foundation and benefit from it, how do we rectify as a society? Ford is hardly alone here, many German, Japanese, and American companies were built on wartime atrocities and exist today from that previous goodwill. If the malignant founder is dead, is then the rest of the machine exempt from responsibility?

I personally think the only way to be truly principled is to boycott basically everything. I imagine the vast majority of people reading this right now are wearing clothes produced by child slavery or eating imported products that clear cut rainforest and villages or whatnot. Society for better or worse has to carry some amount of baggage to just subsist without emotional stress.
He’s called a nazi because he does nazi signs, endorses the German far right party (not a literal nazi party in itself but endorsed by neo-nazis), keep getting closer and closer to say Hitler did nothing (apparently Hitler didn’t murder millions of people himself so no responsibility according to him).

If Hitler was a candidate today, Elon would endorse him, period.

He could tattoo a svastika on his forehead and people would still find him excuses.

I was making 50 per hour doing freelance programming two years ago but I've had trouble finding clients and then I didn't have a place to work from, making it even harder. That's my biggest obstacle. I've got 10+years experience with PHP, JavaScript, laravel. etc...
The page contains a link that says "If you want to get a copy, you can download a digital copy for free." Clicking this link either asks you to name a price (for something you haven't yet had a chance to evaluate) or takes you to a page that either has no actual .PDF download link, or has hidden it well enough to turn it into a puzzle.

Either way, not an ideal first impression. Designing electronics that work is a lot like designing a web page that works: even if it doesn't end up simple, it should almost always start out that way.
Those are largely ineffective in the modern world.

Most bot nets, like he mentions in the blag post, come from 1 IP address only 1 time. With thousands to tens of thousands of IP addresses in the bot net, there is just no way to block by IP address anymore.

Apple Silicon could not have existed without the vast amount of capital that a trillion dollar company like Apple could've mustered, TSMC might even be one or two generations behind where it is right now if Apple couldn't afford bankroll the latest generation and temporarily monopolize it, and for that reason alone I'm fine with the state of affairs

It's also great that Apple is able to negotiate with countries as an equal wrt. user privacy, iMessage is the only e2e encrypted messenger allowed in China, and is currently able to mobilize a significant political movement against mandatory backdoors in the UK
I loved Xanga. I had a blog there. (Knowing what the hell Xanga was reveals my age.)

Blogging back in the day was just a bunch of people sharing their feelings on an online platform. Then other people, on that same platform, would read, comment, and follow each other.

Simple.

Then Google took over, and suddenly, blogging wasn’t about personal thoughts anymore—it was about ranking #1. People stopped writing for people and started writing for algorithms.

First, it was all about “Best” — best towels, best ways to comb your hair, best way to raise your pet.
Then “How” — how to eat broccoli, how to use a thermostat, how to remove a stain from your favorite shirt.
Then “What” — What is broccoli? What is the name of the 45th president? What should I eat for dinner?

We fed Google everything, and Google gave us the internet we know today: a machine-driven web where content is optimized, but authenticity is lost.

And now, AI is taking over. But here’s the thing—AI isn’t just changing how we find content; it’s changing what content even is.

The question is: What happens next?

> that I'd like to claim wasn't an issue when I was making them circa 2015-2017,

Well, I wouldn't say that the standards for (software) security were anywhere near as high as they are now. It makes sense that our requirements for things change.

> It's very, very, very, hard to believe there's 0 way for Apple to ensure an encrypted connection.

Sure there are ways, but without regulation I struggle to see why should/would Apple ever bother. Nor do I think that a forced way would be held to the same standards as the rest.

> Put another way, avoiding the global observations: If it's impossible, why allow watches to be paired at all?

Because they can't do much, if anything at all?
If Apple had their way, they would LOVE to sell you a $2000 aluminum brick with no screen, speakers, microphone, etc., that still required a proprietary cable to charge.
what's the better alternative, DIY AMD? No, thanks. I'm interested in the result, not the process. In terms of robotic software there is just nobody close. Any attempt to port it to different hardware will be just a big pain and limited result at best. So NVidia looks to be the way to go till China catches up.
Show HN: I made a tool lets you hotswap tools on your Web AI Chatbot/Voicebot
took about 10 months of hard work to get here, but now you can:
A. create a Chatbot/Voicebot
B. create databases, tools, integrations & they are fully hotswappable b/w the chatbots & voicebots
C. put them on your site (or for the voicebot case you can put it on your site or use a Twilio Phone number)
D. for websites, it will automatically track what pages users visit w/ revenue attribution if you add Stripe API Key - for voicebots it will record the call which you can play back on the bots dashboard
E. (Extra) you can also set up a "Cloud PBX" Twilio Number that can route to an AI Agent or it can forward the call to you directly (I use this on my phone) you can test here: +1 256 588 3299

Tell me what you guys think!
The extreme fog and heavy rain are dramatic conditions that no existing driver can navigate within. These conditions make a strong case for involving advanced tech, i.e. a better LiDAR. And that is what happened here: a scenario that no driver without assisted tools can pass, and neither can a Tesla.

Do you remember when Tesla had radar? The idea was brilliant at a time when LiDAR tech was difficult to get en masse. Radar plus camera does what LiDAR could do at lower computing powers.

Trump plans to issue EO designating fentanyl as a "Weapon of Mass Destruction"
the hardest advice I've received was to find what you are still hanging on to that is preventing change and let it go.

in that spirit: you don't have shelter. I would say you have nothing to offer your kids right now except your emotional need. their mother (or whoever) can take care of them. you're out, done, kaput. accept the failure and earn their forgiveness sometime the future if you are lucky, not now. the belief that you have or can be something for them today in these circumstances creates the constraint on the location of opportunities in front of you, and they will sense they are your anchor and resent you more for it.

get rid of the desktop computer as well. pawn it and use the money for something useful like a spare phone or battery pack or whatever car things you need, it provides no opportunity.

you need relationships of any kind, somewhere else. get a job selling something, even if it's in a mall kiosk, it doesn't matter, so long as you are in front of people.

this is the harshest advice I can think of. I can't say whether it's good or advisable, but anything else you get can be compared against it. good luck.

Show HN: Leilani – 802.1X for BYOD Networks
We’ve built an 802.1X platform that authenticates clients via external Identity Providers (Google, Azure, etc.) using OIDC to provision user accounts. Users enroll on a self-service page, complete the OIDC flow, and generate a username/password to authenticate. We continuously use the refresh token to re-verify users.

Why did we build this? Many RADIUS services push EAP-TLS, which is great but requires PKI and an MDM for policy deployment. Username/password options either require admins to manually provision accounts or rely on LDAPs (typically for on-prem AD and NPS).

Additionally, most VPN vendors charge extra for MFA, which means paying for it on top of everything else. We wanted a single solution for authenticating both Wi-Fi and VPN users with MFA, using the same credentials.

As someone who transitioned from IT to software development, I saw a gap in the market for customers who can’t deploy EAP-TLS but still need strong network access control. This is especially common in environments like education, where you can’t control every device.

I’d love feedback! Feel free to reach out via email at kiern@leilani.dev or text me at (518) 360-0649.

why is your username green, out of curiosity?
My method is to help your "adversary". The way I think about it is this: we can't obtain absolute truth, so we're always somewhat wrong; we have limited data and information, so we need to be able to consider what others have that we don't. Arguments can be both adversarial and cooperative, right?

If your goal is to seek truth, then you need to reframe the setting. It is not "I defend my position and they make their case", that is allowing yourself to change but framed to maintain your current belief. Sure, you have good reason to maintain your belief and I'm not saying you shouldn't hold this, but it should be a byproduct of seeking truth rather than the premise.
