JFrogs platform is fairly robust. Only time will tell if this project can keep up. I highly doubt it's more than a fancy-looking prototype at this stage
A few weeks ago I noticed DNS4EU couldn’t resolve archive.is and assumed it was just a configuration mistake. I emailed them about it, and after a couple of days or weeks (not really sure) the domain started resolving again. Given AdGuard’s recent report about suspicious pressure on DNS providers to block Archive.today, I’m starting to wonder if DNS4EU’s temporary block was actually related to the same campaign
member of DNS4EU ops team here - This was not the case, we had reachability issues with the authoritative servers of archive.is and had to reach out to the team to allow our source IPs.
>The archive.is owner has explained that he returns bad results to us because we don’t pass along the EDNS subnet information. This information leaks information about a requester’s IP and, in turn, sacrifices the privacy of users.
Someone asked the archive.is owner why he does this in the past. It's because of similar situations to this one where someone who wants to get archive.is taken down uploads illegal content, requests archive.is to save it, and immediately reports archive.is to their country's legal authorities. His solution to this is using the EDNS information to serve requests from the closest IP abroad, so any takedown procedure requires international cooperation and therefore enough bureaucratic overhead that he gets notified and has time to take the content down. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36971650
I also find the "we don't want to leak a requester's IP" explanation for blocking EDNS to be suspect. The way DNS works is that you ask for the IP address for a domain name, you get the IP, and then you connect to it. With Cloudflare's DNS, the server doesn't know your IP when you do the DNS lookup, but that doesn't matter because you're connecting to the server anyway so they'll still get your IP. Even if you're worried about other people sniffing network traffic, the hostname you're visiting still gets revealed in plaintext during the SNI handshake. What Cloudflare blocking EDNS does do is make it much harder for competing CDNs to efficiently serve content using DNS based routing. They have to use Anycast instead, which has a higher barrier to entry.
> Even if you're worried about other people sniffing network traffic, the hostname you're visiting still gets revealed in plaintext during the SNI handshake
Many sites now support Encypted Client Hello. This makes it possible to send the hostname after the connection has been encrypted. This is enabled by default on cloudflare hosted domains (when cloudflare also manages DNS).
There was a report some years ago that found the IP address being connected to is often enough to identify the website being visited, even when using a CDN. I think you have to go to VPNs at a minimum, or Tor preferably. Tor doesn't help with correlation attacks from global passive/active adversaries though, or even folks with access to a lot of netflow data.
Personally, I have never liked the PEP 634 pattern matching. I write a lot of code in Python. 99% of the time when I could use pattern matching, I am going to use simple if statements or dictionaries. Most of the time, they are more straightforward and easier to read, especially for developers who are more familiar with traditional control flow.
Dictionaries with a limited key and value type definition are fine, but dictionaries as a blind storage type are a recipe for crashing in prod with type errors or key errors. Structural pattern matching exists to support type safety.
I'll argue that code is in fact not easy to read if reading it doesn't tell you what type an item is and what a given line of code using it even does at runtime.
What’s the problem using it as a switch statement if you care about typographic issues? I do this so I’d like to know if I missed something and this is a bad practice.
It's not an issue, but that's not where most of the power is and can also be confusing since if you use variables in the case statement, the way it watches does not behave like a simple switch.
I am running an ARM64 build of Ubuntu on my MacBook Air using Multipass. I've never had a problem due to missing support/optimisation for ARM - at least I didn't notice any. I even noticed that build times were faster on this virtualised machine than they were natively on my previous Tuxedo laptop which had an Intel i7 that was a couple of years old. Although, I blame this speed mostly on the sheer horsepower of the newest Apple chips
I can absolutely relate to this. I had similar feelings for the last year or so - although I couldn't express these thoughts as well as the author did.
I've developed this weird addiction to making notes in Obsidian. It wasn't really about learning or understanding anything. I bought into the illusion that having notes in my PKM meant I had actual knowledge. Bigger graph = smarter me, or so I thought. I even started reading books just to feed the system: Look at me with my 3,587 notes this year - aren't I clever!"
Currently, I am just taking notes where it really matters: Readme, documentation and some loosely organised markdown files
I am confused, because this means that you won't be able to install anything. No compiler, no 3rd party libraries and no text editor that isn't preinstalled
> But in people with diabetes, this sensing system is dysfunctional, and the liver releases glucose even when blood levels are already high, causing a host of health problems.
I am pretty sure, that the dysfunctional glucose sensing and inappropriate liver glucose release are consequences and complications of diabetes, not the primary causes. Diabetes (Type 2) is primarily caused by insulin resistance combined with progressive beta cell dysfunction.
Therefore, treating the liver to treat diabetes seems .... weird?
As an analogy, when my driveway is covered in snow and ice, the root cause is precipitation. But my immediate need is to get my car out, so I shovel the drive.
Yes, treating symptoms is not the ideal, but if you can fix the immediate need of getting blood sugar down, that is still helpful.
In your story, your driveway was designed to be shoveled like the body is designed to deal with small amounts of sugar.
Let's say we had a particularly bad winter that required the use of power tools, which had the effect of damaging the driveway. Your body on diabetes is like a damaged driveway.
At some point you'll need to fix the damaged driveway. It will require a change in lifestyle while the driveway is being fixed, and perhaps even a change SOP's to reduce the risk of future damage.
Most people never give up on the power tools (supplemental insulin). Most doctors don't know any better.
Your analogy doesn't really apply to anyone with type 1 diabetes, which is an autoimmune disorder and roughly 10% of all diabetes cases. A lifestyle change cannot fix type 1 diabetes.
Additionally, partial remission in type 2 diabetes has a success rate of just 0.007% per 5 year post-remission cohort. The idea that a lifestyle change can "fix the damaged driveway" is essentially a statistical anomaly - it's not grounded in evidential standards has yet to be proven.
Does it matter? A success rate of 0.007% is practically a statistical error. It signifies that the method is not feasible regardless of individual factors.
You're right. But they explicitly wrote "we examined the potential of FUS as a treatment for diabetes". So they are discussing a treatment, not just symptom relief
There is a lot of research pointing to the duodenum being damaged and not playing it role correctly. It is essentially the signaler to the pancreas and gall bladder and liver to release All The Things! There have even been some studies around a new approach that resurfaces the duodenum with a hot water balloon that brings back proper function, known as Duodenal Mucosal Resurfacing (DMR).
I am a proud user of their assistent. It provides access to all models that I am interested in (basically only Sonnet/Opus) with stronger privacy guarantees than many of their competitors. Their UI/UX has definitely room for improvement. However, I find it pretty useful.
I never heard about the supplementation of N-acetyl-cysteine with regards to the treatment of dry eye disease (DED). Could you elaborate on your experiences with the supplementation of NAD? I am unable to find any real useful information in the web
