41,794,200 | comment | crispair | 2024-10-10T00:10:17 | null | I wonder how they got access the their database? I read in this thread that they likely used a supply chain attack by replacing some polyfill scripts. So they could've injected malicious code (XSS) that logged email and password to a remote server which they could have gone through. With a bit of luck they couldve gotten access to an admin account or whatever… | null | null | 41,792,500 | 41,792,500 | null | [

41,794,203 | comment | AtlasBarfed | 2024-10-10T00:10:39 | null | There's been a lot of comparisons between the gilded age and modern us economic structure with respect to individual wealth.<p>I contend the even more disturbing mirror is the trust/monopoly/cartel structure of virtually all industries and markets in the United States.<p>The ultra rich are a symptom, not necessarily the cause: we need a massive breakup of practically every sector in the United States, and it's not just for what the parent of this comment says about wealth creation: increased employment, more job mobility, more innovation, overall competitive advantage in the world, more resilience to global supply chain disruption, and innumerable other national security and economic concerns.<p>Monopolies are really bad for freedom. As we see with the closed no-appeal ban systems of internet companies and utter lack of customer service, your very day to day freedom can sharply be curtailed at a whim by the centralized power of monopolies. | null | null | 41,791,695 | 41,784,287 | null | null | null | null |

41,794,221 | comment | arp242 | 2024-10-10T00:13:20 | null | I've written some tools like this; some released, some not (mostly because unfinished). The problem with "merging it upstream" is that it's just a lot of friction. There are also some ideas I have and having my own tool gives me the freedom to explore and experiment without worrying too much what other people think or compatibility.<p>And then there's the language choice, as well as code quality. I don't really want to start a huge discussion about this, but it should be pretty obvious that many people are more comfortable and productive using languages that are not C, and that some of these tools don't have the best C code you can find.<p>A lot of "Rewrite in Rust" (or Go, Python, what-have-you) isn't really about the "Rewrite in Rust" as such, but rather about "Rewrite so I can play around with ideas I have".<p>Also see my comment from a while ago when someone asked "why do this when $other_tool already exists?": <a href="https://github.com/arp242/elles/issues/1#issuecomment-2168559003">https://github.com/arp242/elles/issues/1#issuecomment-216855...</a> | null | null | 41,793,970 | 41,791,708 | null | null | null | null |

41,794,248 | comment | dannyobrien | 2024-10-10T00:17:34 | null | For IPFS, I'm fairly sure you can now serve from your normal filesystem, rather than load it into their blockstorage -- or at least the blockstorage has pointers to real data blocks that are part of your existing files (it's the nocopy option[1]; it's marked as experimental, so there may be some sharp edges.)<p>For Filecoin, if you want fast access, you do need to keep a second hot plaintext copy, as well as the sealed Filecoin copy. But that works for the backup case for IA, because the hot copy would be served from the archive's existing infrastructure (and/or a distributed IPFS hot cache) -- you'd just use Filecoin for the proven safe backup.<p>The project to back up IA to Filecoin is still ongoing. The IA dashboard that shows the current state is (perhaps predictably) down at the moment, but it crossed the 1PiB line last year[2], and they've been optimising the onboarding flow recently.<p>[1] <a href="https://docs.ipfs.tech/reference/kubo/cli/#ipfs-add" rel="nofollow">https://docs.ipfs.tech/reference/kubo/cli/#ipfs-add</a><p>[2] <a href="https://blog.archive.org/2023/10/20/celebrating-1-petabyte-on-the-filecoin-network/" rel="nofollow">https://blog.archive.org/2023/10/20/celebrating-1-petabyte-o...</a><p>(Disclosure: I work at the Filecoin Foundation/Filecoin Foundation for the Decentralized Web, which partners with the Archive on this project, as well as supporting other Internet Archive backup projects.) | null | null | 41,793,900 | 41,792,500 | null | [

The conventional wisdom that C++ is wickedly difficult to learn is NOT about "oh man, now I need to learn about the spaceship operator?" C++ is an almost unfathomably bottomless pit. From the arcane template metaprogramming system to the sprawling byzantine rules that govern what members a compiler auto-generates for you, and on to the insane mapping between "what this keyword was originally introduced for" and "what it actually means here in _this_ context, there is no end to it. Keeping up with new language syntax features is an absolute drop in the bucket compared to the inherent complexity required to understand a C++11 codebase, build it (with a completely separate tool that you must choose) and manage its dependencies (with a yet different completely separate tool that you must choose).<p>You don't have to know anything about Rust to know that saying "Rust has become complex as C++" is objectively incorrect. | null | null | 41,791,773 | 41,791,773 | null | [

41,794,267 | comment | sophacles | 2024-10-10T00:20:44 | null | I'm not arguing that there isn't a tradeoff, or about "git gud". I'm literally and genuinely baffled about how one can magically elide knowing if a file is open or closed (or the equivalent) when using a resource. Like I can't think of a single language that doesn't make you explicitly obtain resources, and most of the GC languages do the same thing as rust for casual closing - just let the handle go out of scope.<p>Even for memory, a huge amount of the rust I write isn't performance code - I don't understand why it's a mental burden to write<p>let x = vec![a, b, c];<p>When the equivalent in python is:<p>x = [a, b, c]<p>Nothing about either requires a lick of memory allocation thought, nor about memory layout. Sure in rust I have to think about what I'm going to do with that vec in rust and the mutation story up-front, but after enough lines of python I have also learned to think of that up front there too (ortherwise I know I'm going to be chasing down how I ended up mutating a copy of the list rather than the original list I wanted to mutate - usually because someone did list = $list_comprehension somewhere in the call stack before mutating).<p>I'm not being disingenuous here - I literally don't understand the difference, it feels like an oddly targetted complaint about things that are just what computer languages do. To the best of my ability to determine the biggest differences between the languages aren't about what's simple and complex, but how the problems with the complex things express themselves. I mean it's not like getting a recursion limit error in python on a line that merely does "temp = some_object.foo" is straight-forward to deal with, or the problems with "for _, x := range foo { func() { stuff with x } }" are easy to understand/learn to work with - but I don't see people running around saying you shouldn't learn those languages because there's a bunch of hidden stupid crap to wrap your head around to be effective. (and yes, i did run into both those problems in my first week of using the languages)<p>In all the languages there are wierd idioms and rules - some of them you get used to and some of them you structure your program around. Sometimes you learn to love it, and sometimes it annoys you to no end. In every case I've ever found it's either learn to work with the language or sign up for a world of pain, but if you choose the former everything gets easier. When a language makes something seem hard, but it seems easy in my favorite language, well, in that case I've discovered the complexity is there in both, but when it's hidden from me it limited my ability to see a vast array of options to explore and shown a whole new set of problem solving tools at my disposal.<p>I still don't know what people mean when they talk about "having to think about memory layout"... like seriously to me it's: Thinking about pointer alignment and how to cast one struct into another in C... something I've only had to think about once in any language across a fairly wide range of tasks. If this is what's being referred to, I'm baffled about how it's coming up so much, but i suspect this isn't what people mean, and I don't know what they actually do mean. | null | null | 41,793,733 | 41,791,773 | null | [

41,794,275 | comment | o11c | 2024-10-10T00:22:08 | null | If the language actually supported a full set of memory policies it would be quite possible.<p>Unfortunately it only thinks about are unique, an opinionated form of borrowed ownership, and a little bit about shared (weak I think is punted entirely to the library?), and not all other ownership policies can effectively be implemented on top of them.<p>The usual thing approach would be:<p><pre><code> given two types, P and C (which may be the same type in case of homogeneous trees, but this), with at least the following fields:
class P:
child1: ChildPointer[C]
class C:
parent: ParentPointer[P]
</code></pre>
Then `p.child1 = c` will transparently be transformed into something like:<p><pre><code> p.child1?.parent = null
c?.parent?.child1 = null # only needed if splice-to-steal is permitted; may need iteration if multiple children
p.child1 = c
p.child1?.parent = p
</code></pre>
Note that ChildPointer might be come in unique-like or shared-like implementations. ParentPointer[T] is basically Optional[UnopinionatedlyBorrowed[T]].<p>A have a list of several other ownership policies that people actually <i>want</i>: <a href="https://gist.github.com/o11c/dee52f11428b3d70914c4ed5652d43f7" rel="nofollow">https://gist.github.com/o11c/dee52f11428b3d70914c4ed5652d43f...</a> | null | null | 41,792,625 | 41,791,773 | null | [

By what margin are House candidates typically winning? I'm sure there are plenty of landslides, but also lots of districts that were decided by a few percent -- and those who don't vote could be a deciding factor in those races if they chose to vote.<p>Or if we analyze this from an opportunity cost perspective, IMO voting is always the right choice. Maybe there's an 80% chance your vote "doesn't matter", but the cost is only 15 minutes of your time every 2 years. Isn't the 20% worth the risk?

Most of the covid deniers would somehow mind me coughing a cold into their face even if they didn't mind coughing their covid into mine.<p>But drink raw milk if you want. Just beware serving it to others unless they want it too. | null | null | 41,794,009 | 41,792,975 | null | null | null | null |

If everyone was so cost sensitive, why isn't everyone taking the subway? | null | null | 41,788,193 | 41,776,861 | null | [

41,794,292 | comment | cycomanic | 2024-10-10T00:24:46 | null | While PhD theses are typically quite straight forward, i.e. at many (most) universities a PhD needs to be a proper publication often with an associated IBAN and with a copyright licence assigned to the University (or at least a number of hard copies given to the University library), masters and bachelor theses differ considerably. Often the copyright fully belongs to the students, they are not required to be published (often even are not supposed to be, as they were done at some industry partner, or results have not been published in journals yet due to time constraints...). So it's legally not that easy for universities to publish or even archive them especially in retrospect. | null | null | 41,793,896 | 41,789,815 | null | null | null | null |
41,794,293 | comment | burcs | 2024-10-10T00:24:56 | null | It's great to see an article not bashing them for once. I love the idea of them not having to compile and the fact they just work in the browser. They aren't without their flaws but I'm hopeful that they'll continue to push through them.<p>I'm getting older in the world of modern web devs, and I truly can't keep up with all of the frameworks, so I'm hopeful that the core web will eventually win and we won't need all of the "cruft". | null | null | 41,794,150 | 41,794,150 | null | null | null | null |
41,794,294 | comment | alchemist1e9 | 2024-10-10T00:25:20 | null | Now it is starting to look to me almost like you and Peter Todd are panicking and making huge slip ups.<p>Let me explain.<p>I see that you are now also arguing the IP leak is questionable and that others were running Bitcoin or could have been. Now combine this with the absurd idea that “retep” could have just been abandoned and it means nothing, even peter backwards, there are a million Peters whatever.<p>This is crazy you guys are basically accidentally admitting to technical somewhat knowledgable people like myself that retep is Satoshi because the excuses don’t pass the smell test. We know Peter was an actual wiz kid, it’s clear, Hal was emailing him in 2000, all using the email address that included … wait for it … “retep”, his IRC, his website, his freenode. It’s now obvious that he likely changed to his real name because the “cat was out of the bag” among the insiders. Hal would have immediately known Satoshi was Peter.<p>OMG guys get your act together fast. You need a plan B, no pun intended, because real investigators will tease it out, the top people doing that, have almost supernatural human intuition.<p>Regarding IP leak. Come on. Obviously it’s his IP. Was there a conference or vacation he was on maybe?<p>I’m just a dumb ass Bitcoiner from OG days and I can see though this charade so easily. I’m concerned.<p>Bitcoin is a gift to humanity from Satoshi (perhaps not retep!) and if the keys aren’t destroyed already and Satoshi is alive and has them then perhaps he should consider publicly burning the 1M coins or at least most of them. The nebulous case of supposedly the keys are destroyed is not a good situation tbh.<p>To answer your question. Yes I can definitely figure out where I was on January 10th, 2009. I know where I lived and worked then. I know if I took any vacations.<p>I’m hoping Peter Todd has a good alibi if he isn’t Satoshi. If he is … well time to confess and handle it in a way that doesn’t hurt the amazing invention.<p>EDIT: I wish I didn’t open this can of worms on HN. But I can’t delete it now … | null | null | 41,794,110 | 41,783,503 | null | [

I have emailed Tcl's "father" (John Ousterhout) at length and he is one of the few to have actually tried to test what coding patterns make for better code and is the only book I recommend anyone when they want to get better.<p>Unfortunately most fall for the more popular Clean Code and it's derivatives.<p>Edit: The book is "A Philosophy of Software Design" | null | null | 41,791,875 | 41,791,875 | null | [
