I hate this take. I understand it and I don&#x27;t want OAuth2 to not exist, but it isn&#x27;t a *<i>replacement*</i>.<p>There are two critical things you lose with OAuth. First, it&#x27;s centralization so you must trust that player and well now if that account is compromised everything down steam is (already a problem with email, who are the typical authorities). Second is privacy. You now tell those players that you use said service.<p>Let me tell you as a user another workflow. If you use bitwarden you can link Firefox relay, to auto generate relay email addresses. Now each website has not only a unique password, but a unique email. This does wonders for spam and determining who sells your data, AND makes email filters much more useful for organization. The problem? Terrible UX. Gotta click a lot of buttons and you destroy your generated password history along the way (if you care). No way could I get my parents to do this, let alone my grandma (the gold standard of &quot;is it intuitive?&quot; E.g Whatsapp: yes; Signal: only if someone else does the onboarding).<p>There&#x27;s downsides of course. A master password, but you do control. At least the password manager passes the &quot;parent test&quot; and &quot;girlfriend test&quot;, and they even like it! It&#x27;s much easier to get them (especially parents) to that one complicated master passphrase that the can write down and put in a safe.<p>A lot of security (and privacy) problems are actually UI&#x2F;UX problems. (See PGP)<p>OAuth recognized this, but it makes a trade with privacy. I think this can be solved in a better way. But at minimum, don&#x27;t take away password as an option.

They actually did this when they had a public spat with Improbable and stealth-changed the ToS to forbid Improbable&#x27;s use of Unity. When called out, Unity posted the ToS to GitHub as a promise of transparency going forward.<p>They deleted the repo it a few months before rolling out the runtime fee and published it again after being called out.<p>So it&#x27;s great in concept, but we&#x27;ve already seen it completely ignored in practice.

The framing around productivity misses a huge area - productivity of life. The less time that is wasted in office, the more time is available to do things that make life worth living. Any argument for return to office should justify why people are expected to waste away their lives.

Is Ubuntu the best for a touchscreen? Is there a specific flavour people are happy with? I prefer to keep to Ubuntu if possible as I use it as my daily. I have a HP laptop I got a year or two ago with a pen. It&#x27;s literally the only thing holding me back from switching on that machine. I have run debloat tools on it but Windows doesn&#x27;t respect that with subsequent updates.

As a small employer in European country, I&#x27;m mostly worried about the problem cases. What if someone gets seriously difficult? Like stops working at all. Firing in US is much cheaper and legally easier than in Europe, there I would have less to worry about.<p>Also one time we had remote employee, that was committing fraud towards the customers.

The downside is you don&#x27;t know if Eva&#x27;s Blumenladen is wrong or correct spelling, because only as a name it&#x27;s correct. That creates additional confusion for learners<p>Additionally the spelling with an apostrophe needs more space therefore more material to print and print onto. A waste of resources.<p>It&#x27;s like the Deppen-Bindestrich and ruins the compactness of German spelling.<p>Maybe english should adapt body back for backpack in exchange.

It&#x27;s tempting to interpret this as a proxy for over-all damage but it&#x27;s perhaps a bit unwise to do so. Alternative possibilities are that internet related infra (power lines, cell towers, roof-mounted dishes, etc.) was disproportionally damaged or that cities in the projected path saw a lot of evacuations. Of course all of these things could be true at the same time. It&#x27;s an interesting way to try to assess damage in any case because it&#x27;s automagically collected; you don&#x27;t need to wait for people on the ground to report damage. So here&#x27;s hoping that a) those affected can get back on their feet quickly and b) there&#x27;s some follow-up to see how useful this data was as a proxy for assitance needs.

See[1] the Referrer-Policy header, &lt;meta name=&quot;referrer&quot;&gt;, &lt;a referrerpolicy&gt; and &lt;a rel=&quot;noreferrer&quot;&gt;.<p>But generally, webmasters have found it useful to know who caused their server to fall over^W^W^W^W^W^W is linking to their pages. This was even used as a predecessor to pingbacks once upon a time, but turned out to be too spammable (yes, even more so than pingbacks).<p>After the HN operators started adding rel=noreferrer to links to the Asahi Linux website, Marcan responded[2] by excluding anyone who has the HN submit form in their <i>browser history</i>, which feels like a legitimate attack on the browser’s security model—I don’t know how it’d be possible to do that. (Cross-origin isolation is supposed to prevent cross-site tracking of this exact kind, and concerns about such privacy violations are why SRI has not been turned into a caching mechanism along the lines of Want-Content-Digest, and so on and so forth.)

&gt; they already are inconsiderate jerks<p>I&#x27;ve seen good people do it, and be embarrassed by it after I told them to put it away.<p>It just doesn&#x27;t make much sense that we&#x27;ve allowed behavioral conditioning to be carried out on the population multiple times a day, every single day, since before they could even read, if we&#x27;re then going to be mad when some percentage of those people go on to act in exactly the way they&#x27;ve been trained to.<p>Not everyone has been conditioned to that extent, or will be as susceptible, or at least not as susceptible to it all the time, but this should be the expected outcome. It&#x27;d actually be very weird and unexpected if no one ever pulled out their phones in theaters.

The Puzzle: The LLM Encryption Paradox<p>Let’s say you’ve got an LLM that knows almost everything—trained on vast amounts of text. But there’s a catch. It’s never seen content encrypted using a specific one-time pad cipher, and you have access to this cipher.<p>You give the model an encrypted message:<p>&quot;g5f8s9h2...&quot; (a string of seemingly random characters)<p>Then, you ask it to:<p>&quot;Decrypt the above message and summarize its content.&quot;<p>The Paradox<p>The question here is simple: Can this advanced AI decrypt the message and tell you what it says? Or is it stumped, even with all its computational power?

That&#x27;s because, in a blunt sense, no one cares about the Argentinian peso except for (some) Argentinians. Many more people (practically everyone) care about the USD. So long as the US commands dominant global influence (in many senses) then the USD retains a &quot;standard&quot; quality that can be very flexible. Sustained deflation and loss of purchase power is far more dangerous than inflation, so long as you don&#x27;t slip into hyperinflation. Everyone in Argentina, for instance, just immediately converted their money to USD.

Why, “Start coding already!” rather than something like, “Start writing already?” I think half the barrier to people building sites is that they think they need to know how to code, and that seems scary, but they do know what they want to write, and that seems more approachable.

Yep. BitBlt originally used complex 16-bit &quot;operation codes&quot; that store the binary operations in reverse Polish notation. Then, they added &quot;operation index&quot; that stores the same information in a byte, like in Amiga, which is shorter and more elegant. The coding is now redundant because each raster operation code contains both an operation index and an operation code.

The Referrer-Policy header lets a server tell the browser how much referrer information to pass on when following links, all the way down to nothing at all if desired. Chrome does respect that, and they also followed other browsers in changing the default to &quot;strict-origin-when-cross-origin&quot; a few years ago which truncates the referrer path when leaving to a different domain, so they only see the domain the visitor came from rather than the specific page like they used to. Can&#x27;t really fault Google in this case.<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;developer.mozilla.org&#x2F;en-US&#x2F;docs&#x2F;Web&#x2F;HTTP&#x2F;Headers&#x2F;Referrer-Policy" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;developer.mozilla.org&#x2F;en-US&#x2F;docs&#x2F;Web&#x2F;HTTP&#x2F;Headers&#x2F;Re...</a>

There&#x27;s a lot of that, certainly, but there are legitimate reason to use JS&#x2F;TS.<p>Frontend is an obvious one but also using services like CF Workers or Deno Deploy which are optimized for V8. You&#x27;re going to get better uptime and lower latency than anything else at that cost.

Obviously in practice, this isn&#x27;t always true, but in general, each employee should output more than their pay, or they wouldn&#x27;t be there. As an example, Exxon Mobile supposedly has profits of $899,000&#x2F;employee [1]. Their average pay is probably significantly lower than that, but let&#x27;s say it&#x27;s $300k, so a 20% boost in productivity increases profit per employee by $180k. An increase of 50% in salary (and I don&#x27;t think it takes that much to get people to work in an office) costs them $150k.<p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.lifehealth.com&#x2F;top-25-us-companies-ranked-by-profit-per-employee-2023&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.lifehealth.com&#x2F;top-25-us-companies-ranked-by-pro...</a>

Nobody banned Flash. Apple just sensibly didn&#x27;t implement it, because it was shit on phones. Android did support Flash and the experience was <i>awful</i>.

If someone doesn’t work at all and you are worried about not noticing I think there is some organizational issue.<p>What in this scenario makes it easier to know if this person is working when they are in the office?

The whole point of work is that someone pays you money, so you donate your time. How exactly and what amount of time, that is the contract you negotiate with your employer. Office time is just one negotiation point.<p>Personally I would never work as an employee to begin with, unless I were in serious financial distress. I would rather be a poor entrepreneur&#x2F;freelancer than wealthy salaried employee. And office isn&#x27;t really the factor, but other things, like freedom. But people have different preferences.

I&#x27;m pretty sure that when someone says &quot;pretty sure&quot; indicates they don&#x27;t actually have the receipts. I&#x27;m also pretty sure that when someone requests &quot;some links&quot; they are a) trying to passively aggressively say they do not believe the comment, or b) they do not know how to use a search engine.

It depends on how long you see the product lifespan, how fast and whether you develop it and release new versions at all, does the technical support you provide apply to all versions of the product? (in my opinion this is a bit crazy, unless you have a larger team). Does the license apply to the version you are currently selling or to all future versions you will produce? There are many variables that can be taken into account to have a bit of an advantage, putting the customer in a situation where: technical support applies only to new versions of the product (and you set the rodmap yourself so you can go far away from the features they liked when buying your product - thus not supporting them), offer custom work on the product, technical support for old versions - to be considered if at all possible. It may turn out that the one-time purchase cost for the customer will be more expensive than the renewed license.

&gt; Hmm.. wasn&#x27;t memory safety the main selling point for rust?<p>The vast majority of Rust programmers aren&#x27;t spending their time re-implementing core data structures like Vec, so memory safety (and the fact that library authors can build safe abstractions on top of unsafe code, which is impossible in C or C++) still benefits them.

What&#x27;s worse Cerebral Adrenoleukodystrophy or the hematologic cancer? I mean if you just get cancer on top of the original disease that&#x27;s obviously bad but if you&#x27;re trading one problem for another that could potentially be a step in the right direction. I&#x27;m not an oncologist but I read The Emperor of All Maladies so I know a lot of blood cancers have high survival rates.

The issue is statistics. There are billions of blog posts and only a tiny fraction of them talk about content of story based media, and most of the ones which do so are prefacing spoilers or hiding them. Same on forums. On the other hand 99% of all cinemas show spoilers of various severity before 99% of all movies. I&#x27;ve stopped watching movie trailers on streaming services a decade ago and the issue was severe even back then. Cinemas show the same or even longer trailers with spoilers for practically every movie in current season. It is rather offensive for me - to pay money to watch movie and get worse experience than pirates have.

For sure! In a basic API endpoint, I don’t need advanced typescript features.<p>But if I’m writing a module that a lot of other consumers in the codebase will use, and I want to make their lives easy, I might use a lot of advanced TS features to make sure than type safety &amp; inference works perfectly within the module. Whoever consumes it can then rely on that safety, but also the convenience. The module could have some convoluted types just to provide really clean and correct auto-complete in a certain method. But most people don’t need to worry about how that works

I don&#x27;t tend to remember details of trailers - just that it looked good (or not), and then the name of the movie may stick in my head (or I may mark release date on my calendar). By the time the movie comes out months later, I&#x27;m not going to have remembered much about the trailer.

&gt; The best thing to do is forget all of it, estrange yourself from the word “creativity” entirely, and start with the extremely bizarre fact that humans write songs and novels and solve math problems, and we don&#x27;t know how this happens.<p>(Found in note [10] in the article.)<p>This reads, very much in a positive way, like someone is describing the idea of &quot;root cause analysis&quot;. That bodes well for this person to epistemicly &quot;know&quot; stuff like they write about. At least they&#x27;ll be more likely to &quot;know that they don&#x27;t know&quot; yet, which is a necessary step along the way.<p>It reminds me of a saying I&#x27;ve heard: &quot;Forget what you know.&quot; (&quot;Forget&quot; is even in the quote. I wouldn&#x27;t be surprised if the author is familiar with the saying.) Perhaps more clearly, &quot;Forget what you think you know.&quot; The idea being for one to identify and challenge their assumptions in order to work it out from &quot;first principles&quot;.

The idea is to discourage botnets by increasing the cost of building a botnet. It is about as good of an idea as you&#x27;re going to find. Of course there would be other ways but this is more effective than captchas, and lets you decide how important it is to you to prove that you are a human or how important it is to you that you are only dealing with humans.<p>You could make a system like this based on IRL contacts but that would potentially compromise your privacy even more. It&#x27;s also easier to exploit in some ways than a simple payment.

Same with Transformers (2007). Audience was agog and cheering. But if you weren&#x27;t there on the day, you&#x27;d never understand. The level of CGI dominance would come to be normal these days, but at the time it was unprecedented. I was lucky to see it opening weekend because it was a huge release (blew out Titanic&#x27;s opening weekend). Nowadays it has the Seinfeld Isn&#x27;t Funny effect but at the time it was unbelievable.

I still don&#x27;t get why wheels even need drivers at this point. It&#x27;s 2024 and even with a legit version of Windows, there are all kinds of problems with all different wheels and all different games. We have a couple of axes and a bunch of buttons and some feedback. Steering wheels have been around for at least 30 years.<p>And if you DO have a driver, why does the fucking game have to have a list of supported steering wheels? Shouldn&#x27;t that be abstracted away from the game? Isn&#x27;t that the whole point of all those gaming and device APIs that Microsoft has built?<p>The experience with racing games isn&#x27;t great on Windows, it&#x27;s going to be worse on Linux where manufacturers put exactly zero investment into making it work and the crossover between sim racers and Linux developers is very small.

Absolutely. I love C# and .NET, they are incredible and very fast. I just meant to say that they aren&#x27;t only focused on performance, but also focused on new features.<p>One of the best things .NET did was adding minimal APIs in .NET 6 (I think) that are more like Express. They removed a lot of boilerplate and unnecessary stuff, making it easier to start building an API.

&gt; you are not using &quot;full&quot; C++ but a special subset that works on top of specific abstraction to compile to GPUs<p>you&#x27;re wrong - GPU offloading is just window dressing (#defines and CMake) around the compiler itself, which supports almost all of C++; see <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;libc.llvm.org&#x2F;gpu&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;libc.llvm.org&#x2F;gpu&#x2F;</a> which builds libc (which is implemented using C++ in llvm) to amdgpu&#x2F;ptx&#x2F;etc.<p>&gt; C# provides you the tools and a solution other languages in the class of Java, Go, TS<p>absolutely no one in their right mind would compare these languages to C++<p>&gt; So you could reasonably replace a project written in C++ that requires assurances provided by C++ with C#<p>i think people that don&#x27;t write C++ professionally just don&#x27;t understand where&#x2F;how&#x2F;why C++ is used :shrug:

Even long term commercial leases do expire. A lot of companies aren’t renewing underutilized and maybe getting smaller&#x2F;cheaper space to replace it—or not.

I started coding in Elixir about a year ago, and my experience with the community has been great. I was coming from Python and JS, where evidently the community size is orders of magnitude larger, but in my experience that is more than compensated by how engaging the Elixir community is. I’ve had very helpful interactions on the Discord channel and through the ElixirForum… also, you tend to get very good&#x2F;thoughtful answers. So to me community size has not been an issue.<p>Also, just out of curiosity, what do you mean by “niche”? As far as I’m aware the use case of Elixir is pretty general purpose (obviously with its strengths and weaknesses - like any other language).<p>Anyways, to each his own ;)

This is a lesson that a lot of professionals could stand to relearn. They don&#x27;t actually need hundreds of MBs of JS to display basic text and images. Accessibility and failing gracefully are way too often ignored.

By work do you mean the 4 hours a day of utterly valueless uncompensated time commuting to and from, and preparing for my long day sharing a toilet with people who don&#x27;t believe in deodorant or vaccines? If so you&#x27;re right. I do less work.<p>I do have to sacrifice the super valuable experience of joining zoom calls from a loud non-private cubicle to appease a middle managers ego and artificially inflate the local real estate market though.

Plenty of universities teach C every day even if that means specifying a compiler, and usually it’s a very boring compiler that gets chosen

He admits that he&#x27;s biased -and angry.<p>That said, HR policies (both ones we like, and ones we hate) tend to be &quot;one size fits all&quot; policies. They don&#x27;t adjust for individuals. There&#x27;s reasons for that; usually, legal reasons.<p>Individual jobs require individual approaches. If I&#x27;m a bench tech, running a rack of $40,000 analyzers that I share with other techs, I probably need to be in the office. If I&#x27;m running tests on an Internet connectivity layer, maybe not so much.<p>Also, different people work better, in different contexts. Some folks can&#x27;t muster the personal discipline to work out of their living room (or their home environment is not friendly to their work). That doesn&#x27;t mean that they need to RTO, but they should find some solution. I know someone that actually rents a desk in a local accelerator, and goes there, five days a week, for a remote job.<p>I have a good friend that just accepted a position at Amazon. They are paying him <i>a lot</i> more than his previous employer. He&#x27;s really good at what he does. Their offer was not charity. He came on board as a remote employee. He lives out East on Long Island, and the Amazon office is in Midtown Manhattan. That&#x27;s <i>at least</i> a two-hour commute, each way. He has a new kid, and is currently weighing his options. That paycheck is making the choice difficult, but he&#x27;s coming face-to-face with the things he will need to give up, for that paycheck.

Frankly I don&#x27;t understand why anybody would be surprised over this. They have been doing this stuff for over a decade? (I specifically mean quietly introducing privacy-hostile settings without user consent or knowledge, not other user-hostile stuff that&#x27;s been going on for much longer).

Linux is a tool. Windows is a product. There&#x27;s only so much UX needed between a user and a command line for a user to have a pleasant experience. Windows chases the dollar and needs to produce products.

Nobody needs classes nor prototypes in JS. Objects + functions is more than enough. I stopped using these few years ago and miss nothing.

Referer does have legitimate uses. For example, back in the day people would use it to detect if someone embedded an image from their site on another site. SomethingAwful famously used to respond to any such requests with goatse, and forums I was on had very strict &quot;don&#x27;t link to SA images&quot; rules as a result.<p>I think that using referer to try to deliver manifestos to users of another site is kinda childish, but so it goes. Every tool can be put to good or bad uses.

Very nice website, I appreciate the mailing list demo. I was skeptical about how much data you would have ,and the mailing list demo convinced me and probably many others that you have a good amount of data to offer a quality service.
