I don't understand why you are being downvoted. People sympathetic to the enemy has been one of the primary security threats on both sides in the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

During WW2 the Danish resistance killed more Danish informants than German occupation forces.

That is almost certainly what is happening. There are tens of millions of Westerners who are sympathetic towards the adversaries of the West (primarily Russia).

What is CL? Google says it's an ancient IBM language which is probably not what you meant.

How well-proteced is the "edge" in edge computing? I can see Cloudflare has edge locations in many countries. Can entities with physical access to Cloudflare's edge machines get access to sensitive user data?

But why? Apple doesn't have anything resembling a monopoly in the EU.

Why did Google fail to turn "simple" apps like Google Podcasts and Google Reader into low maintenance apps?

Google Podcasts is so simple it could even have been an open source reference app showcasing Flutter and some backend GCP services.

The moment DJI really took off from the competition is when they began using high-end cameras and optics.

DJI is a video camera company that happens to put the cameras on drones.

Which Rust tutorial introduces Tokio early on?

There are reasons Go/Erlang-like lightweight userland threads can be useful even if .Net already has a good async story.

The author of the original RFC 896 from 1984 and namesake of Nagle's algorithm is John Nagle who is an active user here on Hacker News:

If Canada has signal intelligence and human intelligence then it should be safe to release the signal intelligence.

Release it.

Considering all the Snowden fanboyism and anti-CIA/NSA sentiments on HN and reddit I expected people to be more critical of a Five Eyes intelligence service saying "just trust us bro".

Has anyone tried how different compression algorithms compare when doing NCD classification?

gzip first does LZ77 and then Huffman coding. ANS is a more modern alternative to Huffman coding that can achieve higher compression ratios than Huffman coding.

Because people can make porn with locally hosted Stable Diffusion.

They can't do that with MidJourney and DallE.

Has anyone who funded OpenAI back in 2015 spoken out against their non-openness? Elon Musk only did after he no longer had a stake in it.

Edit:

OpenAI is a corporation and their stakeholders include Microsoft, Peter Thiel, and Infosys.

Yeah, not really surprising that they are not "Open".

Does that really happen? Has there been any incident of European companies being sanctioned by the US because they traded with Cuba?

Here is a Danish article about more Danish and European companies operating in Cuba because they expect a Vietnam/China-like economic boom:

https://politiken.dk/oekonomi/gloekonomi/art5577587/Virksomh...

Denmark is a NATO country and the US is our main export partner. We wouldn't be trading with Cuba if it put our relationship with the US at risk.

>There is nothing lax about the trade embargo. Tell that to the people who can’t get food and medicine.

Cubans have all the food and medicine they need because China, Europe, Canada, Mexico, and the rest of the world still trades with them.

The US and Israel are the only countries that have imposed a (very lax) trade ban on Cuba.

When people today talk about Elon Musk's political views they mean his sudden right-wing radicalization in 2022 that happened exactly when he was tipped off about sexual harassment allegations coming his way.

He pulled an Elon.

Elon Musk also came out as an alt-right troll when he was tipped that an expose about sexual harassment of a flight attendant was coming his way.

It would be interesting to guesstimate what the NSA might be doing by analyzing the skills they're looking for in their job postings and the kind of open source projects they have released.

For example their Accumulo OSS suggests they're capturing and storing a lot of data to analyze later. The Ghidra OSS being a best in class reverse engineering tool also suggests that alot of their work revolves around finding zero day vulnerabilities.

How does that make sense? Are there significantly more young men than women? Or do the women date older men?

It's remarkable how little of what Putin and Russian state median say internally to Russians is covered in Western media.

They are obsessed with old maps.

A few months ago Putin flaunted a map from the 1700s without Ukraine as proof as that Ukraine has always belonged to Russia and that "Russians" live in all regions of Ukraine (beyond Crimea and Donbas).

>As a general rule when criminal conspiracies are taken to task, they don't retain a right to privacy for their communications that aren't about the criminal conspiracy. Rather it all comes out in court.

That doesn't seem to be true. There are many court cases involving criminal conspiracies where you cannot find unrelated information about the involved people.

That site inflates salaries because it oversamples devs who work remotely for American companies. For example the site claims Ukrainian devs make $57k a year.

+1 for uBlock Origin and SponsorBlock.

Who are the people behind AdGuard and why should I send them all my DNS lookups?

I think it's better to use Pi Hole instead.

Why are you surprised that backdoors in "boring" non-consumer facing hardware didn't get much attention?

Yes, Elon Musk did the same.

But it's not proof that he is guilty.

But this is Britain. The UK has never had the same range of speech as the US or France.

Let's be honest. Do you think Russell Brand would have been cancelled this hard if he was a boring centrist instead of spending the past 18 months talking about Ukrainian "bio-Nazi labs"?

Neurodivergent people are being persecuted for wrongthink.

>To highlight, Russia’s future changed dramatically after 2014.

Actually things started going south for the Russian economy in 2010-2014 when both US oil companies and Saudi Arabia started pumping out oil as no tomorrow.
