There's https://github.com/matburt/mobileorg-android/wiki/, which is fairly decent. It's still very rough around the edges, and nowhere near the quality of the iPhone MobileOrg, but it's a decent enough start - sticking the orgs in Dropbox keeps everything in sync :).

But yeah, I basically came to the same conclusion (there wasn't a usable solution), and switched to Astrid on the Android tied to Producteev (as it had a plugin for that off the bat) - I put immediate things to remember into there, and most of my notes and other organisational stuff stays in org-mode. When the Android MobileOrg improves, I'll probably use that full time.
I use the zenburn theme for everything. In emacs, xmonad colors, my terminal colors, in everything. It's very easy on the eyes.
I have no idea how accurate those times are, I always assumed they would just be basic approximations but you may well be right that they could be more in depth.
I meant raising money from Goldman Sachs' private wealth management clients specifically, I think the OP implied there was a pattern.
Example from the paper of Makefile code used GHC:

$1/$2/build/%.$$($3 _ osuf) : \
$1/$4/%.hs $$(LAX _ DEPS _ FOLLOW) \
$$$$($1 _ $2 _ HC _ DEP) $$($1 _ $2 _ PKGDATA _ DEP)
$$(call cmd,$1 _ $2 _ HC) $$($1 _ $2 _ $3 _ ALL _ HC _ OPTS) \
-c $$< -o $$@ \
$$(if $$( ndstring YES,$$($1 _ $2 _ DYNAMIC _ TOO)), \
-dyno $$(addsu x .$$(dyn _ osuf),$$(basename $$@)) )
$$(call ohi-sanity-check,$1,$2,$3,$1/$2/build/$$ * )

I suspect it easier to master Haskell than this.
>China and India will not play ball.

That is a lame excuse, mostly used by people from developed countries that are responsible for the issue, so you dodge responsibility and also try to put blame on the developing country why you are continuing screwing the environment. It is like you have a history of you and your ancestors abusing your children and you don't want to stop because the new neighbor is also abusing his children too (I am thinking especially at coal plants and cars that have effects locally too, so cleaning yup your house means you will have healthier population and less CO2)
So the compiler developers had to pay fees? Or Intel and AMD?
Most (all?) smart meters' payload is unencrypted, and can be read with a $20 software-defined radio:

https://github.com/merbanan/rtl_433

I now have my electric, gas, and water readings going into Home Assistant - the hardest part of setting this up was figuring out which meter serial numbers were mine, and which belonged to my neighbors.
I just upgraded to a big 4K monitor and I'm trying to figure out my options for migrating from GNOME+Wayland on Ubuntu 22.04. It seems like there's sway (i3 ported to Wayland) along with some sort of sway-GNOME session config that looks like a WIP. Or there's a GNOME extension called ShellTile but it needs to be ported to GTK4. Does anyone else have recommendations for a GNOME-ish tiling setup under Wayland?
Just realized, BitCoin could become a force to recon with overnight if just one step happened: Paypal started supporting BitCoin.

Peter Thiel is a libertarian and seems like he would be very sympathetic to the idea - who knows, crazier things have happened.
Git is what happens when a technology is born out of hardcore engineering. Most of the world could greatly benefit from its functionality but it’s too hard for non software-engineers to learn. I hope the next era of version control thinks about the problem from a less technically inclined user’s perspective.
Out of curiosity, does anyone know of any good alternatives that make version control easy? I personally love git, but want to see it’s benefits brought to a wider base of people. Projects like Bit are a step in the right direction.
I tend to agree. Trading stocks is essentially gambling but almost worse. The odds are rigged but you don’t know by whom abs how much. It’s a game of skill, except not entirely. The house always wins except there are multiple houses and you can lose to all of them.

I think investing is a different beast: that is going long on a company, industry, or the market in general. You reasonably know that the market will over time go up. With specific industries or stocks you take a bit more risk but you are still buying ownership of a thing and things tend to become more expensive over time unless a better thing comes along. But short term gains chasing, especially as a retail investor is just gambling.
Interesting. It gives one plausible animation, but it is one of many plausible animations. So it looks good for people whom you have never met before, because it is plausible. Yet it is not as good if you know the person, because then you are able to notice the discrepancy. It reminds me of what happens with super-resolution algorithms for tiny faces.
> Ah, but if they're a store of value that is never removed from the box, does it matter whether they work? Does it matter whether they're in there?

For some reason, this makes me think of USDT.
Could you please explain to someone from the web domain with very little experience with compiled C programs why this is significantly better than, say, distributing a python program? Python runs on all the platforms mentioned. Or alternatively requiring compilation from source?
Around 20 years ago, I had the opportunity to listen to a member of Nasdaq top management talk about the stock market. It's all a _tiny_ bit blurry, being a long time ago, but I remember how he talked about three different perspectives for investing in stock:

First, the "company perspective". An investor would buy stock in a company they believed in. Maybe they had good products, or good management, or something else. The idea was looking at the how well the company would perform.

Second, the "stock perspective". An investor would ignore the underlying company, but look at the stock itself. It didn't really matter if the company was doing good, but only if the stock itself had good potential. The idea was looking at how well the stock would perform.

Finally, the "game perspective". An investor would not really care about the stock, but only about the behavior of other investors. Day trading would be the example here, profiting mainly on marketplace dynamics, no matter the stock. The idea was looking at how to be a better player than the others.

Then he talked about how the game perspective was the only model that really matched the marketplace, and how the stock market had evolved from being place where people would invest in companies, to a place where they would play a game with other peopl.
Hey Chris,

thanks for sharing the article. I think I spotted a minor logical error in it tho.

> This is because on average, you will gain $1 with every coinflip. For those interested in the maths, you have a 50% chance of winning $2, and a 50% chance of losing $1. 50% * (+2) + 50% * (-1) = +$1.

Isn’t it an average gain of $ 50ct per coin flip? That way the calculation would be correct aswell.
I don’t understand what you mean. You can’t use the API without, in this case, importing it in the python code. That means you bring in a whole copy of the code into your project, or the API wouldn’t work, right?

So, my understanding is the author’s new files that use the GPL licensed library can individually be licensed MIT, but the work as a whole must the GPL.
Yeah but compare it to a truck in the late 90s not really a huge difference in economic value. Bit more luxury but a 1/2 ton truck is still a 1/2 ton truck it can do about the same amount of work but it can go 0-60 a bit faster
Coinbase is extremely lucky that BTC seems to have established a new floor.

I’m curious how bullish they were after the crash a few years ago.
There is a native feature for this however gnome-terminal won't ship it largely due to disagreement how to integrate it with shells. However Fedora includes patches for it and I use it every day and it is amazing. The best thing about the native integration is that it notifies for every command completion where the terminal isn't focused. This means that when I am watching the terminal I don't get distracting notifications at the top of my screen and closing vim or less even if it has been open for a while doesn't trigger it either. The time based approach is just not as good as you may miss short commands (especially unexpectedly short, so you switch away because you think it will take a while then are confused when you don't see the notification you expected) and get bothered unnecessarily when you are looking at the terminal.

he's blabbing about it on twitter and then threatening to freak out if anyone writes about him blabbing about it on twitter
They have a reasonable sized moat then no? I’ve no idea $77bn seems large, but they intend to be the world’s financial system in 10-20 years so could be worth even more.
I'd like to be able to click on the "About" link and see your advisory board, chock full of nutrition experts who've studied existing medical meal replacements.
Could this be a good marketing tactic to acquire users for consumer facing products?
What do you mean by sensical or satisfying?

Your friend's diesel is turbo charged, unlike any gasoline powered light truck in the US. And their displacements are, for the most part, larger. Tuned for low end power, and you get the sensation of "easy" power because you don't have to rev the engine. My old grand marquis had a "measly" 200 hp from a 4.6 l gasoline, less than my sister's 1.8 T VW. My 200 were always available, my sister's golf had to scream.

So what? Don't get queasy about downshifting and making your engine scream, in moderation. On a modern car, with our roads the way they are, the engine will outlast the car.

Don't get me wrong. On a large pickup, and given the appropriate task, diesels make sense in the USA. But not for most people.
You have pretty much all of the pro-Apple talking points covered in your various posts in this discussion. I urge you not to simply accept them because you read them elsewhere, however, because they're largely baseless.
If things that begin small aren't worth doing, then nothing is worth doing.
I actually don't look at this through the narrow lens of an Apple shareholder. Who wins--iphone or android--matters a great deal for the future of the smartphone ecosystem. I have no doubt that Apple can turn a nice profit while controlling 5-10% market share just like in the PC market.

To me though, that doesn't matter. What matters is that the dominant smartphone platform will be available on many devices from many carriers and will be reasonably open.
As someone who has work extensively with both mesh and voxel engines I can say each has its good points.
If you want to go for maximum visual acuity. Go the mesh route, there are great tools for generating mesh content, the shaders are well understood.
Now if you want to go for maximum interactivity, emergent behavior, and simplicity, the voxel route is by far the hands down winner.
The author of the original article only had a superficial understanding of voxel engines and optimization techniques.
Agenda or not, the caller of the meeting needs the personality to shut people down who take tangents. I have seen plenty of organized people who are just too nice to take control of their meetings (agenda in hand).

Learn to say "okay, good, write that down and tell us more over E-mail". Treat every 5-10 minutes as a deadline, and if a discussion has not been productive or is too emotional, just skip that item as unresolved to make sure everything else is covered. And if there is evidence that attendees are unprepared, e.g. haven't even read what they were supposed to base discussion on, just end the meeting.
I have taught Clojure to people. I didn't know there was any demand for Arc in industry. Are there any online resources for learning it?
I'm left wondering if anyone has made an app out of this, to obviate the need to print things and as well provide an onboard means of educating the user how the game works. This is still quite a complicated concept and I can't say I understand it better just because I've got toy alligators all over the place .. but with an app it could be a bit more intuitive. That in itself might be an interesting exercise ..

The other side of the coin is not a squeaky clean one either. Expect various "system integrators" companies to have serendipitous family ties with those government officials who are responsible for writing checks.
No need for root password, user privileges are fine for typical malware.

On most popular systems, $HOME is mounted without noexec, and programs are not isolated from writing everywhere in $HOME. Then all the malware have to is to alias sudo to itself (or hijack it with SUDO_ASKPASS, huh) and wait.

It should be noted, though, that GNU/Linux is one step ahead — when those holes will be exploited in the wild, distro builders will start putting browsers in sandboxes, enabling AppArmor/SELinux/... by default, perventing from running executables from $HOME and whatever would be required. Everything is here, just disabled for users' convenience, trading less security for more usability.

Uh, in fact, the malware is already here. Just take a peek at /var/log/auth.log (or wherever you're getting sshd messages). Unless you've set up denyhosts or something alike, you'll see lots of attempts to log in with various typical usernames and passwords. And somewhere in the world, those attempts surely succeed.
While I'm all for jailbreaking iPhones, the untethered part still bothers me. I don't want people being able to get root access to my phone from a webpage. I still fully expect to see nefarious uses of this code. Apple needs to fix this hole once and for all. I'm fine with the inconvenience of tethering if it means I have a more secure phone.
You have to be very careful about spaces and returns on some of them as well. Fortunately they tend to have short and precise output specifications.

I do wish their grading script could give a little more indication of what failed, as I'm not sure it will even tell you the difference between a build error and a test failure. If it does, great. I struggled with that a year ago when I first worked on them.
Yeah exactly - I have 2 USB extenders hooked to my charger next to my bed so I can read emails and play Shredder Chess when I wake up... plus the alarm clock.

But again, we are not normal folks though I bet this isn't that unusual the more I think about it.

They started making USB wall plugs after all (which is a great idea).

Isn't this obvious? Name a single popular startup with a dash in their domain.
Hey Ben, there's no reason to call me stupid. I needed to link to that survey, because that's what my post was about. Time to chill out.
This effort allows GNUStep applications to share GNOME configurations (themes, menus, icons, etc). It's designed for people who want to develop Cocoa applications in Linux without dealing with the horrid-looking NeXTStep theme.
Can't tell if you mean overwriting after every keystroke (if so, no history); or saving a "fresh copy" after each keystroke (history, but terribly inefficient - localStorage has space limitations); or saving a series of diffs (how far do you have to go down that path before you realise you should have just used git?)
I'm sure there will be a ton of good advice here, but one thing that I've always found helps a lot, regardless of what other resources or approaches you are using is to come up with a project that you want to complete and then use that to focus the rest of your learnings. It helps guide the learning and exploration.

It's probably better to pick something smaller and more achievable at first so you can make some early progress and experience some successes but picking a huge goal is fine too, you just have to break that huge goal down into smaller and smaller ones until you have a reasonably sized sub-goal to break off and work on.
Google's spying hurts your users.

To manage your webserver, use your server logs. If you really think you need more information than those convey, you could get some self-hosted javascript to assist with that.

You need nothing else.
We use MyBatis annotations. Usually, for our specific use case we are calling a Postgres sproc. It was a little tricky for one part since we have a json type column, so we had to create our own little pgobject mapper which took a day to figure out how. Other than that, it has been a breeze.
The academic oeuvre of Dr Feynman (Nobel laureate) himself, largely.
Thanks. Yes, I definitely agree that my daughter will likewise not notice what I didn’t notice. And I continue to read it a lot because we both love it.

In the Anniversary collection, Watterson notes things like “this is basically an exact quote from my dad.” (For example, in the strip where good dad says they should put the Christmas tree in the garage and not decorate it.) So I don’t think they are totally divorced from each other.
Once you realize there's no such thing as objective news, just choose the outlet that best confirms your biases.
I try to understand how this is legal ?
I mean: what is the difference between Archive.org and any other torrent website ?

Aren't they both preserving the culture ?

Archive.org is doing 20M USD in revenue, lot of people are getting paid in the process, and suppliers as well, it's not like they are working for nothing.
They just don't have investors (but can have big salaries).

Genuinely wondering because I saw that you can download games there too (and some are still under commercial exploitation).
O(1)+O(1) is just O(11). Not a big problem.
Is the weather data supplied as open source, with a requirement that any products that uses it must be similarly open???
A lot of this data comes from NASA.
If this is the case, any map maker with a fee basis might not want to give their work product away with that sort of strings on it??
>it doesn’t link to the NYT magazine article on rationalist retreats from a few years ago

I want to read that, but Google failed me. Do you have a link or a clue to help me find a link?
We've been using it since 1.0 and I agree with you that there's many rough edges... many projects may never run into them, but like you, we did have these issues you mention... slower performance by the compiler and IDE are very, very noticeable on a large Kotlin project (at runtime, we haven't had many issues - there's only a few cases Kotlin is slower than Java, but you can keep those in mind and avoid them when necessary[1])... one more issue is Dokka (the equivalent to Javadocs for Kotlin). It's still in alpha and it's pretty terrible, if I may say... it generates documentation that requires lots of JS libraries to run, which is just ridiculous. We ended up writing the documentation conversion ourselves instead of using Dokka (this was actually for an Android project - because we hadn't needed to publish docs for backend Kotlin before).

That said: we still enjoy using Kotlin, I just wouldn't ditch Java for it if I had to pick one.

Hello HN,

I’ve released the third iteration of the editor built on top of PRESENTA Lib, my open-source javascript library to create web presentations.

As in previous iterations, the feedback from you were really helpful.

I’d love to get some more!

Cheers!
As other have mentioned, Vue3 is barely out, its still fairly new, and for the most part most people I know are also sticking to vue2. The pain of switching to vue3 might just warrant a rewrite in react.

For all of what facebook is worth, React has almost never broken backward compatibility, and the core idea has not changed much, while vue switched from 2 to 3 to adopt a more react like approach, go figure.
I have way more flagged than I expected.

Sorry! Apparently I click it in error more than I realized.

Gonna go fix it. Too late, I know, but then I start fresh and can be aware.
The fact that my number is registered to my legal identity? In my country, and I think in most countries, it's not legal to sell a SIM without checking and recording the buyer's legal ID.
It's very easy; you could have it up and running in an hour, possibly. Here are market leaders for small business, and I presume they would handle consumer accounts. In my very limited experience, I had the best experience with RingCentral.

* RingCentral: Softphones only (i.e., applications on a computer), IIRC - no hardware handsets.

* Nextiva: In my one experience, the sales culture as a bit of a hustle, but it worked out.

* 8x8

* Star2Star: Don't know much about them; maybe medium-to-large business only.
From Anandtech[1]:

"As impressive as the new Xeon 8380 is from a generational and technical stand-point, what really matters at the end of the day is how it fares up to the competition. I’ll be blunt here; nobody really expected the new ICL-SP parts to beat AMD or the new Arm competition – and it didn’t. The competitive gap had been so gigantic, with silly scenarios such as where a competing 1-socket systems would outperform Intel’s 2-socket solutions. Ice Lake SP gets rid of those more embarrassing situations, and narrows the performance gap significantly, however the gap still remains, and is still undeniable."

This sounds about right for a company fraught with so many process problems lately: Play catch up for a while and hope you experience fewer in the future to continue to narrow the gap.

"Narrow the gap significantly" sounds like good technical progress for Intel. But the business message isn't wonderful.

Not related to my original point, but I feel like btc just substitutes trust in an existing banking system with trust in (your wallet provider, the exchange, your computer’s security, and the stability of btc’s price).
Eh, when people say ISO they mostly mean YYYY-MM-DD.

If a date is going to be string prepended to something else, or if the spreadsheet is going to be exported to CSV, or parsed by some tool, then storing dates in YYYY-MM-DD can be a very justifiable thing to do in a spreadsheet.

Also Excel likes to format dates using the system locale, which is, well, stupid. So I have to enter YYYY-MM-DD as a custom format anyway, or change the locale on the column to China. (Or Cherokee, who apparently also properly format their dates!)

(Also Excel is smart enough if you set a column as YYYY-MM-DD custom format, it'll let you use all the date based pivot table stuff as expected)
Paul Graham wrote an entire book on this called Hackers & Painters
Intel was unable to improve their fabrication process year after year, while promising to do so repeatedly. Now, they have been practically lapped twice. Apple has a somewhat specific use case, but their cpus have significantly better performance per watt.
