Here is the abstract of the linked paper: https://psycnet.apa.org/doiLanding?doi=10.1037%2Ffam0001390

The article does not accurately reflect even the abstract, so I would not count on it to accurately reflect the full paper.

From the article (emphasis mine):

the researchers analyzed shifting dynamics of over 11,000 families with kids *for a decade*

From the paper abstract (emphasis mine):

The present study examined the longitudinal, bidirectional associations between early adolescents’ electronic media use and family conflict *across 3 years*

I think "people" deserves clarification: Almost the entire thing was written by a single person and with a _seriously_ impressive feature set. The launch video is well worth a quick watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15_-hgsX2V0&pp=ygUJY29weXBhc...

I don't say this to diminish anyone else's contribution or criticize the software, just to call out the absolutely herculean feat this one person accomplished.

Weight is not the only thing that matters though. You also need to consider center of gravity and wheel base. A YJ Jeep Wrangler and a Honda Fit both weigh around 2700 lbs and they even have similar wheel bases but the driving experience between those 2 is night and day. A Honda Fit can take a turn at speed without feeling like you're going to go flying. You'll feel like you're able to flip making a turn going 20 mph in a YJ.

This is why the first performance mod that most people put on their cars is an adjustable coil over suspension. Dropping the car down by an inch or 2 changes has just as much of an impact as shedding some weight.

Ironically, most people put lift kits on Jeeps but that also usually comes with widening the wheel base and putting on larger wheels/tires.

> It's up to the people in that country, I guess

No, it is not. How English is spoken is determined collectively by the community of English-speakers, not by the Turkish government.

There is also the pretty major issue that native English speakers cannot even pronounce "Türkiye", nor easily type it. That's why use an English word for it, not a Turkish word -- because we speak English, not Turkish.

Just like any other modern app: first you make it work using frameworks. Then, as soon as the "Core" product is done - just a few more features - then we'll circle back around to ripping out those bloated frameworks for something more lithe. Shouldn't be more than two weeks, now. Most of the base stuff is done. Just another feature or two. I mean, a little longer, if we have some issues with those features, sure. But we'll get back around to a simpler UI right after! Just those features, their bugs and support, and then - well documentation. Just the minimum stuff. Enough to know what we did when we come back to it. But we'll whip up those docs and then it's right on to slimming down the frontend! Won't be long now...

I wouldn't be surprised by a drop in security postings. Quite a few companies view security as an "overhead" so the siren call of reducing that overhead by introducing AI is a thing.

Also for a lot of jobs in security it's pretty hard to measure how well it's being done, so if the AI based solutions are worse, that might not show up for a while

I use a bluetooth usb dongle for audio with my openbsd laptop.

It's very small and has a single button on the end for pairing, something like the creative bt-w3 [1]. You want to avoid something that won't work without windows drivers.

The os sees it as a separate audio device, doesn't care that it is bluetooth, and can be set to switch audio playback between the internal sound and the dongle automagically.

When the supervisor fires you, for such a reason, it seemed to be important enough. You also don't need any proof to report someone to the authorities.

Even if the the company has enough lawyers to win in court, it is still expensive. That's why the lawyers are among the risk aversest. So reporting to a company internal lawyer might already be enough.

No advertising platform is going to charge per sale on these kinds of ads. That requires the platform to trust the customer to report accurate sales metrics.

Sales/conversion metrics have been around for decades in ad systems, it's been technically possible to charge per sale but noone has done it. Simply because the sale takes place outside of the platforms control. Ad costs will remain on a per click basis at best.

And your title is misleading, you state costs will move to when deals are completed, which is very different to it being "now free".

Unfortunately this pithy comment is inconsistent with the science. https://ourworldindata.org/food-choice-vs-eating-local Most of the emissions from beef comes from negative land-use change, that is the loss of carbon-sequestering life that existed in the land for both the cows and the tons of agricultural food they eat, and methane, which is released directly to our atmosphere and is a much more potent greenhouse gas than CO2. Fortunately, if we were to phase out cattle, this methane has a half-life much shorter than CO2 and would provide important early gains in restabilizing our climate.

"Trusted with its best technology"

No. The US kicked NATO member Türkiye out of the F-35 program and denied them F-16 upgrades for a long time[1]. And the EU has denied Türkiye membership supposedly because they're not fully part of Europe (among other issues) while courting Georgia which is farther east. Türkiye is treated as a frenemy by the west. Good on them for making their own way.

They also could forget about it. I bet I've probably seen Oxy in some cloudflare post from years ago (maybe even from a launch week or something) but it never resonated.

But I might have encountered this problem or am about to, and such a post might resonate more.

It is like advertising in a way. But for knowledge. As long as people upvote it, it's resonating.

If you have a job - you have it easy. It’s “easy” because I can roll out of bed at 8:45, brush my teeth, wash my face and walk over to home office, log in at 9:00 and do some combination of coding, zoom calls, etc. Get off at 5-6 and walk downstairs to the gym.

But that doesn’t mean that I can demand more money [1], a 32 hour work week etc. if I had still been at AWS at the beginning of the year, I couldn’t have demanded to work from home.

[1] Well I could make more money if I were willing to work in an office and/or go back to BigTech. I’m not willing to do either.

> Nobody likes the web apps because they're slow.

Web apps don't have to be slow. I prefer web apps over system apps, as I don't have to install extra programs into my system and I have more control over those apps:

- a service decides it's a good idea to load some tracking stuff from 3rd-party? I just uMatrix block it;

- a page has an unwanted element? I just uBlock block it;

- a page could have a better look? I just userstyle style it;

- a page is missing something that could be added on client side? I just userscript script it

As a Turkish person I used to agree with you. Not anymore. My people don't want to be associated with an ugly bird and I respect that. Also we don't want an exception. We're ready to use Bharat, Deutschland or any other name in our language if those nations want that. Same for the city names. It's about respecting those countries and their people.

Fun fact: India is Hindistan in Turkish which literally means Land of Turkeys. Maybe we should really change. Bharat means spice which is a better name.

The article nicely points out that New York City also had an elevated sidewalk (or plans) in the late 1800s!

Here are the designs and sketches. It sounds so reasonable. I am curious why they didn't keep it.

For me, the considerable environmental issues aside, the problem with farmed fish is that it simply doesn't taste nearly as good as the wild-caught versions.

Take salmon for instance. In a lifetime of preparing and then eating several portions of salmon per week, I've noticed that the farmed salmon are pretty much always:

-Very pale pink color, as though the animal was unhealthy (sometimes stores even add red food dye to cover this up)

-Weak and mushy flesh, even when fresh; healthy salmon flesh is muscled and springy, it isn't naturally slimy and it holds its shape

-Weak flavor that seems to be missing a lot of the more robust flavor notes entirely

-Thinner or nearly-nonexistent layer of fat between the flesh and the scales (contributes to less flavor overall and removes a lot of the umami); the same problem also applies to the thin bands of fat between the rows of muscle in the filet itself

-Skin/scales slightly disintegrate or fleck away at a touch instead of remaining intact

I don't even bother buying it even if it's significantly cheaper.

I can't imagine that the nutrient content is the same as the wild-caught fish. And based on the sickly look and taste of the meat, it's also very hard to believe that the farmed fish live a life that they find to be pleasant, to the extent such a thing is possible.

I've used nextcloud for close to I think 8 years now as a replacement for google drive.

However my need for something like google drive has reduced massively, and nextcloud continues to be a massive maintenance pain due to its frustratingly fast release cadence.

I don't want to have to log into my admin account and baby it through a new release and migration every four months! Why aren't there any LTS branches? The amount of admin work that nextcloud requires only makes sense for when you legitimately have a whole group of people with accounts that are all utilizing it regularly.

This is honestly the kick in the pants I need to find a solution that actually fits my current use-case. (I just need to sync my fuckin keepass vault to my phone, man.) Syncthing looks promising with significantly less hassle...

I use a similar app called Name That Color — https://chir.ag/projects/name-that-color/#6195ED

I like sharing descriptive names with designers instead of naming everything "light blue" "dark blue" "not quite as light but still not dark blue" etc.

This new thing is tons of fun but seems a bit less practically useful.

> Could lead to significant efficiency gains for EV's, because 1/4 of the motor weight means better power-to-weight ratio... a lot of things will automatically get better.

EV motors are already lightweight. The electric motor in a vehicle like a Tesla Model 3 already weighs less than you do. Reducing that one component by 75% would be a weight savings equivalent to about a half of a passenger.

Not a significant efficiency improvement for vehicles that weigh over 3000lbs (or double that for many EVs).

Every little bit helps, but this isn’t a game changer.

A good thing thing about Nextcloud is that by learning one tool, you get a full suite of collaboration apps: sync, file sharing, calendar, notes, collectives, office (via Collabora or OnlyOffice), and more. These features are pretty good, plus, you get things like photo management and Talk, which are decent.

Sure, some people might argue that there are specialized tools for each of these functions. And that’s true. But the tradeoff is that you'd need to manage a lot more with individual services. With Nextcloud, you get a unified platform that might be good enough to run a company, even if it’s not very fast and some features might have bugs.

The AIO has addressed issues like update management and reliability, it been very good in my experience. You get a fully tested, ready-to-go package from Nextcloud.

That said, I wonder, if the platform were rewritten in a more performance-efficient language than PHP, with a simplified codebase and trimmed-down features, would it run faster? The UI could also be more polished (see Synology DSM web interface). The interface in Synology looks really nice!

It never ceases to amaze me how google search _used_ to work great for stuff like this. You could just type "tbray {obscure term on a blog entry from 10 years ago}" and bam, instant result.

I guess google generates more ad revenue with users forlornly paging through search results, hoping against hope that what they're looking for is there somewhere...

It's just that Americans act like they are the best country in the world, while they never top a single positive index. American life and culture are not attractive to Europeans and you have beautiful art all over the world.
Show HN: FinBodhi – Local-first, double-entry app/PWA for your financial journey
by ciju | 2025-11-03 15:29:13+00:00
We built a local-first, private, multi-currency, double-entry based personal finance app. It will help you track, visualize, and plan your financial journey. Use the `Try demo` button, to try it without an account. Small screens (mobiles) are not supported yet.

By local-first we mean, your data is on your system (we use sqlite over opfs, in browser). For synching across devices, the data is encrypted with your key before it leaves your device. You can backup the data locally (if you are using chrome) and/or to your dropbox. It's designed so that we (the people building it) can't access your data.

Why double-entry? Many personal finance apps operate on single entry model. But it quickly reaches limits with complicated set of transactions (returns on a house, your networth and a lot more). FinBodhi uses double entry so complicated set of transactions and accounts can be modeled (which happen often enough in users financial journey). We wrote about double-entry here: https://finbodhi.com/docs/understanding-double-entry

FinBodhi currently supports import, tracking, visualization and planning. There are few built in importers and you can define your own custom importer, apply rules to imports etc. You can slice and dice your transactions, split/merge transactions, associate them with accounts etc. We support cash and non-cache accounts. For non-cache mutual fund and stock accounts in Indian context, we can fetch price for you. For others, there is manual price entry. We also support multi-currency, and you can set price for currency conversions also. You can view reports like Balance Sheet, Cashflow, P&L and much more, and visualize data in various ways. And when you are ready, start planning for your future.

Eventually we would like the app to cover a users complete financial journey. There is a lot more that can be done (like mobile support, budgeting, price fetching, improved imports, ai integration and a lot more), but the current set of features is quite usable. We have written down our manifesto, which guides the overall development: https://finbodhi.com/docs/manifesto/

Please give it a try. All plans are free for now. Reach out to us at discord: https://discord.gg/mQx649P6cy

> I wish more people on the road realized the extent to which weight reduction improves all aspects of the driving experience

This is a blanket statement and completely untrue. Good driving experience is directly correlated to TRACTION, not just weight. And traction isn't just a function of weight - it also is affected by center of gravity, friction between the wheels and the road. Traction is what gives you the perception of being in control of the car.

I used to own two cars of the exact same model - one petrol and one diesel. The petrol is lighter in weight, about 100+ kgs lighter than the diesel variant. And the driving experience on that is slightly scary especially on roads with strong winds. In fact, it is so light that if you drive over tiny puddles or rumbles strips, the car will sway sideways. The diesel always feels more planted because it is front-heavy, thus adding more traction to the front wheels (both are FWDs). I always prefer the diesel for longer drives because of the heft and confidence it provides.

Because they generally don't do this. The people who get suspended are not just normies using gmail. They are (as in this case) running complicated services doing a lot of access to Google APIs and though likely with no bad intent are activating tripwires that Google has set up to detect abuse.

I would be interested to read the author's take on F. Since they are focused on math applications in this post, and F is very much focused on verified software on not on mathematics, it is a bit off topic. My (inexpert) understanding is that F* is based on an extensional type theory (different that CoC in this way) and can, but needn't, work with proof objects, since its refinement typing can just push constraints into the SMT database. I've found it pretty light weight and "opt-in" on the dependent types, and so it seems quite nice from a usability perspective IMO. But, as I say, I think it really would not address the author's question "how do we know it's right". On this point, I think the worlds of software verification and automated theorem proving for mathematics can be quite far apart.

I do like Rust quite a bit. I don't know Forth or Common Lisp as well, but I don't dislike them. I admit, I have learned very little about them from you so far.

You strike me as someone who isn't really prepared to have an actual debate on technical matters, because all you have done is:

- manufacture some fictional strawman who is complaining about languages you like

- tell me I'm wrong without even bothering to get into why

- claim that I'm biased, when all I've done is explain my opinion that all three languages are challenging in different ways

The other way to look at it is that it’s a waste of RAM to put even a minimal boot disk in RAM. It really depends on which you value more.

The biggest value of this approach is that you are sure that every boot runs the latest OS image. That could be accomplished in other ways.

I say this as the personal opinion of the former engineering lead for the team that maintained SmartOS at Joyent.

> They are defined by the runtime condition they represent.

Exactly. Exceptions represent conditions that violate the rules of the computing environment, while bugs represent conditions that violate "business" rules.

> Saying exceptions often announce bugs is perfectly coherent

Not really. If it were coherent we wouldn't be here. But perhaps what you are grasping to say is that it is possible that a bug could "corrupt" the computing environment, which could then also lead to an exception later on?

Allowing user input of "0" where the business rules say that "0" input is invalid would be considered a bug, and later when that 0 input is used as a divisor would see an exception (in an environment where divide by 0 is not permitted, for those who struggle). The exception in this case would likely reveal that there is also a bug in the user input.

But that does not imply that exceptions encompass bugs. Those are independent events, both wanting their own independent resolutions.

I gave up on using Nextcloud because every time it updated it accumulated more and more errors and there was no way I was going to use a software that I had to troubleshoot every single update. Also the defaults for pictures are apparently quite stupid and so instead of making and showing tiny thumbnails for pictures, the thumbnails are unnecessarily large and loading the thumbnails for a folder of pictures takes forever. You can fix this and tell it to make smaller thumbnails apparently, but again, why am I having to fix everything myself? These should be sane defaults. Unfortunately, I just can't trust Nextcloud.

The UK government has announced very little about the plan and in fact made it clear that the details are yet to be decided https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/digital-id-scheme... Yet plenty of people including in this thread have lept to criticising details of a non existent specification.

I find it perplexing. I agree with Tim. This could be done well. The UK Govs Digital Services Department have done fine work in recent years. I have faith in them to pull something like this off well.

Next though, we need an actual tech spec and public technical consultation. Then perhaps we can have a meaningful debate on it.

This is not an alternative as it only covers files. Mind what is in the article: "I like what Nextcloud offers with its feature set and how easily it replaces a bunch of services under one roof (files, calendar, contacts, notes, to-do lists, photos etc.), but ".

For us Nextcloud AIO is the best thing under the sun. It works reasonably well for our small company (about 10 ppl) and saves us from Microsoft. I'm very grateful to the developers.

Hopefully they are able to act upon such findings or rewrite it with go :-). Mmh, if Berlin (Germany) wouldn't waste so much money in ill-advised ideology-driven and long-term state-destroying actions and "NGOs" they had enough money to fund 100s of such rewrites. Alas...

Lifting an off road vehicle isn't ironic at all, nearly every characteristic that makes a vehicle good on road makes it bad off road and vise versa.

Increased height makes for increased ground clearance and improved break over angle. Sway bars are another suspension component that's great for reducing body roll on road at speed, but reduces articulation and ground contact off road. Differential lockers also negatively impact turning radius, and cause tire chirp, wear, and oversteer under throttle on road, while increasing traction off road.

What's silly is daily driving an off road vehicle on road, especially if you never take it off road.
