Daily Tech News 18 May 2025
Top Story
- Proton - the company behind secure email ProtonMail and also ProtonVPN - has said it will leave Switzerland if new legislation passes that would require all internet service to maintain IP logging. (Tech Radar)
Proton keeps only very short-term logs to keep the system running, and only provides customer information reluctantly and with a court order. Proton's CEO says the new laws would violate privacy in ways already forbidden in the US and EU.
- So where would Proton go? Well, not anywhere in the EU, which is planning legislation that would outlaw security entirely. (Tech Radar)
The proposed rules would mandate backdoors in all end-to-end secure protocols, affecting not just Proton's services, but every website and app in the world except for those that are already not secure.
Tech News
- Introducing Pyrefly, a new tool that hacks type checking into Python after the fact. (Facebook)
Use a type-safe language in the first place.
- Like Seed7. (Thomas Mertes)
Probably not, because this is a language written by one guy in a cave with a box of scraps.
But maybe, because it looks to be well-designed and well-documented. It's a pretty conventional member of the Pascal family of languages - not at all a bad thing - with a pretty solid set of built-in types and structures. If you have a passing familiarity with any language descended from Pascal you can read Seed7 code.
- No, the universe will not disintegrate in 1 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 000 years. You idiots. (Azimuth)
Thus, if the underlying space-time admits a everywhere time-like Killing field, the vacuum state is indeed stable and phenomena such as the spontaneous creation of particles do not occur.
Fair enough.This condition of having an "everywhere time-like Killing field" says that a spacetime has time translation symmetry. Ashtekar and Magnon also assume that spacetime is globally hyperbolic and that the wave equation for a massive spin-zero particle has a smooth solution given smooth initial data. All this lets us define a concept of energy for solutions of this equation. It also lets us split solutions into positive-frequency solutions, which correspond to particles, and negative-frequency ones, which correspond to antiparticles. We can thus set up quantum field theory in way we're used to on Minkowski spacetime, where there's a well-defined vacuum which does not decay into particle-antiparticle pairs.
I know several of those words.
- Stack Overflow just committed suicide. (DevClass)
Again.
- I've said many times that Unicode is a semantic Superfund site. It tries to express every human language ever - including some imaginary ones - using a single character set. But since the same character is used in directly contradictory ways in different languages, the Unicode team ended up with multiple character codes for visually identical characters.
Oh, not only is Unicode a complete semantic disaster, but both Unicode and the fonts used to display it are Turing-complete - the text is a programming language that executes itself. (Stack Exchange)
Which gives you an infinite attack surface for every program written using Unicode, which these days is all of them. (Daniel Stenberg)
SIXBIT or bust.
- Silicon Power's new CUDIMMs run at 9200MHz. (Hot Hardware)
Albeit at 1.45v. The standard voltage for DDR5 memory is 1.1v.
And also only on Intel CPUs. On Ryzen 8000 and 9000 CPUs they drop back to default speed, which is just 3200MHz. On Ryzen 7000 CPUs they don't work at all.

In a sudden reversal of her usual attitude, little gray Dagny La Siberienne actually slept in bed with me last night. No idea why. I woke at about 2:30 to feel a warm lump behind my knees, twisted to check, and found a stubby plumy tail -- Dagny. I managed to turn over and drift with odd flashes of dreams for another ninety minutes, and she stayed until I got up. Amazin'.

Fen, I've never thought about that. I'm told I handle children in (adult) stories well; my anthology sale in 2019, "Dead in First Grade," was told from the viewpoint of a six-year-old girl, using my memories of my own first days of school. But I wouldn't know how to step down, so to speak, for children without talking down to them. Or to plot such a story.

In '06, for fun and to console Linda after the passing of her black cat Marie, I wrote a series of sketches where the cats we knew at that time, Marie, Angelique, and Oreo, could talk to each other and comment on what their humans ("the Servants") were doing. Each cat character had a definite personality, not always like their real-life counterparts, and the dialog was funny (to me, anyway).
It was intended for "all ages." I just don't know what kids' age group that sort of thing could be aimed at.

That sounds not unlike my three siblings and I hunkered down in our bedroom upstairs while my smoker parents and their smoker friends celebrated the holidays downstairs. And smoked. A lot.
For one of us to have said, "I need to go to the bathroom" was equivalent to a final farewell because that child would have to brave the thick miasma of cigarette smoke that filled the rest of the house. We'd hug and cry and wish the traveler godspeed.

They look ungainly, but remain in my ears no matter what I am doing. And are acoustically transparent.
And the sound is darn good. Not as good as something wedged fully into the ear canal, but surprisingly good for how they set on, but not in the ear opening.

Difference is cigarette taxes are 'for the children', both in funding and in stopping kids from smoking. But once tax revenue drops due to the price of a pack, the government complains, raises the cigarette tax again losing more revenue generating more complaints. It's an endless cycle of government 'help' and should be a model when looking at other government programs.

You have some wonderful stories of basically getting away with stuff at the studios. I'd learned one very simple trick: say yes. Simply say yes. Like
Joseph E. Levine, on "The Producers," said, "The curly-haired guy —he's funny looking. Fire him." He wanted me to fire Gene Wilder. And I said, "Yes, he's gone. I'm firing him." I never did. But he forgot. After the screening of "Blazing Saddles," the head of Warner Bros. threw me into the manager's office, gave me a legal pad and a pencil, and gave me maybe twenty notes. He would have changed "Blazing Saddles" from a daring, funny, crazy picture to a stultified, dull, dusty old Western. He said, "No farting." I said, "It's out."

Corporate policy is to erase all emails and other communications after two months.
I work projects that sometimes take more than a year to complete.
It is impossible to keep track of who did or decided what when. We have no way of enforcing any accountability.
It's like being a aborigine and all our project knowledge and history is a long story told by the elders.
This is what has happened because of corporate lawyers.
People have no idea of how insane this is but it's the new normal.
Things are going to get very expensive because all the companies that have any kind of liability when things go wrong and people die are doing it too.
Innovation is already dead, dead, dead.
This has to change or we face ruin.

Looking at the video - the vessel was undocking from the other side of the river. It was in reverse and "backed into" the bridge. It was going very fast ... in reverse... throwing a wake... If I had to guess, based on my decades of experience skippering boats - the transmission was stuck in reverse and they couldn't shut things down in time to avert disaster.
Why they didn't drop the anchor and shut down the engine is beyond me. Typically during docking and undocking maneuvers, a crew will be tasked on anchor duty - standing ready to drop in case of emergency.

In mathematics, a Killing vector field, named after Wilhelm Killing, is a vector field on a pseudo-Riemannian manifold that preserves the metric tensor. Killing vector fields are the infinitesimal generators of isometries; that is, flows generated by Killing vector fields are continuous isometries of the manifold. More simply, the flow generates a symmetry, in the sense that moving each point of an object the same distance in the direction of the Killing vector will not distort distances on the object
I am sure this will clarify the matter for our mathematically declined friends.

On tall ships like the Cuauhtémoc, it is a ceremonial tradition for sailors to climb the masts and rigging when departing or arriving into harbor.
At least two people were killed in the incident, according to New York City Mayor Eric Adams. The two individuals fell from one of the ship’s masts, a law enforcement official told CNN.
