That might well count as "can't". | null | null | 41,795,481 | 41,795,075 | null | null | null | null |

It seems ridiculous if the sequence of events that happens here is:<p>1. Google is fined/broken up due (in part) to paying for the default search engine position.<p>2. In the newly broken off chrome company, they auction the default search engine position.<p>3. Google cannot bid on it. So I guess Microsoft is going to win that position? Who else is going to pay for it?<p>I can't imagine this is what happens. This would just make the DoJ look absolutely foolish and would basically put the DoJ in the position of being Microsoft's personal attack dog. But on the other hand, what else <i>could</i> happen? It's still ridiculous even if it's anyone other than Microsoft that is the winning bidder. | null | null | 41,795,559 | 41,784,287 | null | [

41,795,621 | comment | seanhunter | 2024-10-10T04:50:58 | null | One of the most valuable life lessons is you can't get anyone else to care about what you want them to care about basically ever. You need to focus on the things you can control and one of the things you can't control is what someone else is going to care about.<p>So if you want something done and someone else has to agree, you have to figure out how the thing you want coincides somehow with their interests and concerns.<p>Then you explain the thing you want to them in terms of how it advances/affects the interests and concerns of the other person. So in the framing of TFA, product are never ever ever under any circumstances going to give a shit about your architecture proposal (because that is entirely in the domain of your concerns). But they may care about how the architecture is going to prevent them from delivering features that are on the roadmap coming up and how you have a solution that can fix that for example (because now you are in the domain of their concerns). Notice this is not just "your architecture proposal", it is <i>how your architecture proposal is going to get them what they want</i>, and if you want to do this you need to think deeply and make sure you really understand what they want, not just what you want.<p>You're not trying to change their mind. You're trying to get what you want by showing them how it will also get them something they want.<p>I'm putting this here because I really wish someone had told me this 25 years ago near the start of my career. | null | null | 41,794,566 | 41,794,566 | null | [

41,795,622 | comment | EvanAnderson | 2024-10-10T04:51:20 | null | The book "Inside the Apple IIe" had a program to digitize voice from the cassette port (<a href="https://archive.org/details/InsideTheAppleIIe/page/n341/mode/2up" rel="nofollow">https://archive.org/details/InsideTheAppleIIe/page/n341/mode...</a>). The results were shockingly good.<p>I never had a IBM PC w/ a cassette port, but reading thru this article I see that EA's Music Construction Set had an option to output sound on the cassette port. It looks like the digitization method "Inside the Apple IIe" uses (looking for zero-crossings and making a 1-bit square wave approximation of the sampled audio) would work on the PC hardware. | null | null | 41,794,019 | 41,794,019 | null | null | null | null |
41,795,623 | comment | ameliap24 | 2024-10-10T04:51:28 | null | I don’t use AI directly with my kids, but I’ve introduced it to my younger nephews and niece (all under 10 years old). I’ve shown them how to use ChatGPT similarly to how I used to teach them to search for information on Google.<p>Because the responses can be quite long or complex, I guide them on how to prompt ChatGPT for simpler, shorter answers. I see it more as a tool that I’m teaching them to use, like I would if I were introducing a calculator. I also emphasize using the word “research” in their prompts, especially when it’s for factual topics related to school.<p>Interestingly, while the older generation in our household doesn’t use ChatGPT much, the kids found out about it from their schoolmates. They’re familiar with it but not yet using it to its full potential. I encourage them to experiment safely, and I also suggest using Perplexity as an alternative since it’s more grounded for research purposes. Plus, they’re using my ChatGPT Plus subscription, so I try to help them maximize the experience without getting overwhelmed by too much information. | null | null | 41,787,881 | 41,787,881 | null | null | null | null |

41,795,629 | comment | nullc | 2024-10-10T04:53:06 | null | > It’s actually very likely in my opinion that Todd could easily figure out where he was that specific day and there would be corroborating evidence of that.<p>Yet you can't produce it for yourself, you don't see the issue here? I know I absolutely cannot prove anything about my whereabouts on most random days in 2009, I might be able to reason out where I was on some days but even that wouldn't result in transferable proof. Like I can say, 2009 was before I retired from Juniper and the tenth was a saturday-- so maybe I was home which wouldn't leave any evidence. Or maybe I was on a work trip. But if I was I wouldn't have any evidence of it, and even if I did it quite possibly would have been to California (though not socal, thankfully for my kidnapping risk).<p>Maybe some people can, if you could then I'd have to argue that just because you can it's no reason to assume everyone can, but it seems you can't prove where you were on that day.<p>So I guess you're Satoshi! Glad we settled it. :D<p>> It seems pretty clear the IP in the debug.log file is Satoshi’s node and IRC connection<p>Why do you believe these is clear?<p>> I know that. However you and him I believe have a long history together.<p>Sure, but that doesn't extend to knowing what usernames he used where back before I met him, except by chance.<p>> didn’t Hal actually know retep for a long time?<p>As far as I can tell the people on the bluesky list were sort of the expected fallout from the dying cypherpunks lists. But I communicated with Hal extensively in 2004-ish about RPOW, am I suddenly Satoshi?<p>My SO interacted with him due to the extropians list, I guess she's Satoshi now too?<p>> isn’t retep remarkably skilled for his age in 2009 and earlier?<p>Petertodd was 24 in 2009. Here is a wired article about a project of mine in 1997, when I was 18: <a href="https://archive.is/UT9NE" rel="nofollow">https://archive.is/UT9NE</a><p>When I was 20 I helped crack the cryptography underlying CSS, addressing the risk of player key cancellation wack-a-mole. <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20000226011228/http://www.emediapro.net/news99/news111.html" rel="nofollow">https://web.archive.org/web/20000226011228/http://www.emedia...</a> (not specifically on the crack however)<p>It's always fun to talk about myself, but also I could give similar or better examples from other early Bitcoin developers, but I don't want to say anything that would drive this sort of bad logic to accusing them of being Satoshi... but an example:<p>Another early Bitcoin developer created a novel kind of arithmetic coder as a teenager, starting a line of development that eventually became JPEG-XL.<p>> for instance claiming to he a poor C++ coder?<p>He is, as am I. (I'm competent in _C_ however).<p>The standard for claiming proficiency when you are 18 and clueless is different than when you're 40 and competent. C++ has also evolved significantly over the time. While I can't speak for him, after working and Mozilla and with some of the other Bitcoin developers my idea of what qualifies as a good level of skill in C++ has changed radically.<p>Petertodd's about being poor re-C++ were specifically related to the Bitcoin codebase. And he like me would generally needs to get someone else to explain varrious fancy C++ features in it these days.<p>> he worked professionally on a C++ large codebase at 17!<p>I'm missing the context for this, his webpage from around that age says things like " A mass and springs physics sim I wrote in C++ I didn't manage to finish it though, the physics and math proved too difficult for me. :( The code is more messy then I'd like, I didn't have a good mental picture of what I was working on and my usual good commenting and clear style was hurt because of that." and "I was working on a nice large C++ TradeWars like game called Corporate Raiders. However I got bored of it and stopped work around June 2000. The last thing I did for it was make a compiler which I did manage to get working. Oh well, good learning experience. :) "<p>I don't think this supports what you're saying? But so what?<p>We may be suffering from a disconnect about the caliber of people that contributed to Bitcoin early on. Every one of them was weird, every one was exceptional. Bitcoin was the most interesting and radical new thing at least since P2P file trading.<p>But beyond that there are over three hundred million people in North America, so even if you're looking for one-in-a-million people there are hundreds of them, plenty to have a few show up in Bitcoin development, or even in a particularly interesting HN thread. | null | null | 41,794,999 | 41,783,503 | null | [

41,795,643 | comment | ameliap24 | 2024-10-10T04:55:09 | null | I work in sales too, and what I do is use a leads list and leverage AI tools that track activities or posts from the contacts on that list. I’ve integrated this data into my emailing tool, so I can see when a contact has been active and adjust my outreach accordingly.<p>I use leadbird.io, but I’m sure there are other tools that do the same. Honestly, I haven’t seen a significant boost in conversion just by using these tools so I guess it all comes down to being targeted and relevant when reaching out. If a customer sees the value in your product, these tools can be helpful, but sometimes it just adds noise. To each their own, though! You can also outsource this process if you prefer not to handle it yourself. | null | null | 41,761,060 | 41,761,060 | null | null | null | null |

41,795,653 | comment | anonzzzies | 2024-10-10T04:56:57 | null | The plumber example is quite good, but I prefer the modern car mechanic that connects a computer to a car and reads out things usually even they don't understand which <i>have</i> to be fixed and no one can explain anything but 'engine bad'.<p>Most of the Product people I work with and have worked with collapse easily under technical arguments, but most engineers I work with barely know what they are doing. Only yesterday I (external consultant) asked the tech lead to scp a file from a to b during a workshop zoom where I showed them how to use some new tools and, while he always <i>talked</i> in front of the cto and head product about ssh and scp and his linux chops, he had no clue; he started to download gui tools (windows) and after he was done he still couldn't. I ended up copying the f'ing file to chat (I have no access to their internal systems). This is the guy they trust with core products dev that runs the company.<p>He gets away with it because he talks in difficult tech bla to the cto and product (both MBAs); he keeps using terms from kubernetes (they don't use kubernetes and the guy cannot use docker) and 'things he did in the past' at 'much larger companies' and you can see Product go to his happy place during calls. In the end he lets tech do whatever they want as he understands nothing and gets so much tech babble that he cannot even figure out what to ask.<p>We (small company fixing emergency tech stuff; for this client, it turns out that the emergency is basically their tech department; it's staffed with 100% incompetent people who are decades out of date) hop around a lot and this is very very common; on HN we read about flowers and fairy tales of covering tests, 10x programmers, migrations, kubernetes/containers, git, security etc; in reality however people are sending zip files with dates in them, updating the prod db manually and copy pasting files in whatsapp because they don't understand ssh works (what even IS there to understand ...) and tests? What is that? And these are companies that make more than your startup will ever make statistically.<p>I am going to say that generally the plumber gets his way in the world, the fear of leaks, water or sewage, is enough for people who know nothing about plumbing (it's all pipes!). | null | null | 41,794,566 | 41,794,566 | null | [

41,795,655 | comment | Springtime | 2024-10-10T04:57:04 | null | An issue is for most sites/services an email has just become a standard authentication method, rather than something that can easily be more unique per account. So any usernames across sites/services that share it identify that user as being the same person (for data broker profiling, doxxing, etc), which is the privacy issue (not the email address per se, unless it perhaps contained one's real name).<p>For contrast truly unique email aliases for example aren't possible on common services like free Gmail*, only things like self-hosting/certain paid email hosts, which makes less feasible for many. So from a privacy perspective while in an ideal world everyone would be able to freely create entirely unique per-account creds we're mostly stuck with the email implementation.<p>* One could create entirely separate accounts but it's high friction and IIRC the same phone number (now a requirement) can only be used for 2-3 accounts. | null | null | 41,795,388 | 41,792,500 | null | [

Your home address and personal phone number are likely in the public record for any number of reasons, such as ownership records or court filings. Or maybe a Facebook post from 2009 that your mom made. Unless you're one of the 0.00001% of people who do things like rotate your phone number and address annually, it's out there somewhere.<p>But public vs private is a spectrum, not a binary true/false. My phone number is public because I get sales calls from various companies to it. It's annoying, but bearable. But there's a big gap between that and the New York Times putting my name, number and picture on the front page.<p>So your home address and phone number aren't private. But they're also not readily accessible unless someone is <i>really</i> dedicated to finding them, so they're not quite public either. | null | null | 41,795,548 | 41,792,500 | null | null | null | null |

41,795,680 | comment | kazinator | 2024-10-10T05:01:08 | null | It took me about a minute to find an instance of list linking in Java sources (OpenJDK):<p><pre><code> class JVMCIRuntime: public CHeapObj<mtJVMCI> {
../
JVMCIRuntime* _next;
</code></pre>
The Linux kernel has list linking all over the place. Userland libraries and utilities ditto.<p>I don't think I've ever worked on a C++ or C project that had no linked lists anywhere. I'm trying to think of an example but coming up blank.<p>Quite often but not always linked lists in C are intrusive. Certain object are going to be put into exactly one list. Or more than my list but only one at a time. So the link pointer or pointers are embedded into that object. And so no memory allocation is required to insert those objects into a list. A classic example of this is putting a process structure onto a scheduling queue. You would never want a vector for this, for reasons that a professional such as yourself should understand. | null | null | 41,783,651 | 41,718,203 | null | [

41,795,691 | comment | EasyMark | 2024-10-10T05:03:36 | null | Remember when companies were doing just fine on productivity when huge swathes of industries (that could) allowed work from home because of the pandemic and now suddenly we’re asked believe “trust me bro” CEOs more. It’s all about the power play and keeping middle management happy because they won’t stop crying over not being able to call incessant meetings and “walk the floor” lording their power over the underlings. | null | null | 41,791,975 | 41,791,570 | null | null | null | null |

AFAIR he quit soon after this PEP was added.<p>Adding it was like making python dirty, like abolishing indentation in it.<p>Saving few keystrokes and sacrificing readability. Who even came out with such idea? | null | null | 41,792,464 | 41,788,026 | null | null | null | null |

41,795,696 | comment | freddealmeida | 2024-10-10T05:04:10 | null | Arbitration is not as bad as everyone thinks if you are smart and know the law. First it allows you to talk to the other party in a way that illuminates you are willing to go far enough to seek remedy to your grievance. Secondly, it does not oblige you to make a deal. In fact, a no deal finding will help you when you sue in court after. Many arbitration agreements suggest you give up this right but that is an illegal clause. You can always sue. Just not in a class action. But for the most part, if you go to court they will likely (knowing you know the law) offer you a settlement.<p>Remember contracts can be changed by you for any reason at any time. And any contract that removes your rights is by law, unlawful and void. You can even sue them for the denial of rights under the color of law. If you have the time. | null | null | 41,785,529 | 41,785,529 | null | null | null | null |

How are provinces less free than states? Is Canada less free than the U.S.? | null | null | 41,794,558 | 41,792,780 | null | [
