Yeah, mine as well, until recently they figured out that the passwords weren't so randomly generated as they were derived from the SSID. Great entropy...

I recommend to use a mnemonic password [1] and just print out the WiFi password (without using Google Cloud...) and use some adhesive tape to attach it on the bottom of the router. The downside is that someone who has physical access to the router can see the password within seconds. Someone's who's plumbing your drain or when you are on the toilet.

That they put it into bridge mode when you request is due to EU regulations where EU civilians have free choice of router.

Amazon has been removing reviews and locking listings from receiving new reviews too while they investigate the past couple of weeks. This is probably the reason.

I've also heard that if a listing receives too many reviews in one day, they will prevent it from receiving any new reviews. I think certain unscrupulous sellers have also figured out how to take advantage of that, which is a little funny. Just post all your fake reviews before your unhappy real American customers wake up...

Emergency crossover lanes are actually quite common, but rarely used (and due to this, not even mapped). Such as this (not US, but first one that came to my mind): https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/353606400#map=17/50.03606/...

You arrive from the northwesternmost link, the outer lanes south are blocked, so police opens up the service link (which is normally physically closed by a barrier and correctly mapped as "no access") and routes the traffic through it, into the inner lanes.

Now you also have an indecisive truck sitting in the mess, waiting for a human to intervene.
I agree that the broader point is true: each giant is using software (and hardware in some cases) to build massive infrastructure businesses (logistics, cloud, communications, advertising/search, etc.).

But I think this analysis overlooks the ways where these tech companies do sort of compete: search advertising is a duopoly between Google and Facebook; search has some (very weak) competition from Microsoft and Amazon; cloud services are competitive between Google and Amazon... I think the stronger pattern is Alphabet is in everything and in some way competing with every other giant.

I'd recommend Matthew Butterick's "Practical Typography" to anyone looking to learn about type.

https://practicaltypography.com/

I don't agree with everything on this website, however it has helped me tremendously in developing an eye for type.

My favorite links:

After applying the advice on this page on dozens of site and experimenting and tweaking for hours, I understood the thought process behind these deceptively simple rules.

This drives home the concept of "less is more" and leads by example.

I just love the layout of this page. The design of the table, the elegant asides and a hundred smaller details.

There are areas I don't agree with the author, especially when it comes to the engineering side of web design.

https://practicaltypography.com/the-scorpion-express.html#th...

And yes, there are some controversial choices in the design of the website, notably how links are displayed.

However the pros far outweigh the cons.
Immutability gives guarantees at runtime, a type system gives guarantees at compile time. Or, from a different perspective, immutability guarantees a certain property – the value – of an item, while a type system guarantees different properties for all items of a type. Those two concerns are mostly orthogonal to each other.

> at least the user isn't confused whether it's them that's doing something wrong or it's the page that just shoddily implemented

Users generally ignore all messages coming from their computers. They routinely blame their computers for doing things that the computers are not doing at all. Like, oh I can’t find the document I wrote three weeks ago -> obviously my computer is being disobedient.

Anyway, I don’t blame the users. To them the computer is entirely uninteresting and they don’t want to care about the sorts of concerns that we technically minded people do.

A broken page is a broken page and it doesn’t matter to the user why the page is broken. The only thing that matters to them is, can they do the thing they wanted to do or not. And like the sibling said, the web browsers are surprisingly good at handling broken code.
As in employ someone to go and trace users who post reviews to see if they’ve reviewed the same products?

Maybe you meant make a system that can do it, and do it without false positives to not upset legitimate users when their own reviews are removed.

I’m confused about the ease people expect this problem to be solved. It’s so easy to solve it exists on every popular platform: see the paid, fake reviews on the Apple App Store.
Still, questions like "how do I flatten a list of lists" are common on stackoverflow.
Although they should have let him write the review, I don't think people should leave reviews for damaged/broken items before they've tried to remedy the situation with the supplier.
Revenue doesn't really matter that much. IMO a lot of bigger companies acquire when:

1. You build something that is difficult for them to build themselves.

2. You are a threat to their business model. Doubly so if an acquisition would merge well with their model.

This is the key sentence: "The major cloud providers (aws, google, azure) are starting to expand to my product space..."

If they're expanding there, they're going to need to spend marketing. They need to overthrow the incumbent. They want expertise in the field.

You mention multiple companies. That means that there are a few competing for the spot!

I would recommend being a bit of a thorn in their side, in the sense of market share. This is usually what sparks acquisitions of smaller companies. Don't actually be a thorn personality wise, but make your company visible.

You may want watch for conferences etc in the field and accidentally bump into them. I've once met all my major competitors in the same event.

Going out and saying "I want to sell" doesn't work well, for the same reason it's not a good way to get a date. You want to open up the conversation with the right person. "Oh, my business is making a quarter million dollars a year. But it's so tiring running a business. I wish I could just work in a company and focus on the tech."

A fundraising trick is to meet all the potential acquirers in the same week. It's a lot harder to do with this, but it could help.

I demember doing virtualisation/containerisation for Linux on various platforms (including s/390 and z/VM but also VMware and Xen) at IBM. No matter what the platform was, the PMs would refer to the VM/container as an 'LPAR' (logical partition). Fun times.

I once wrote a 1-star review on amazon for a top-selling product that
had almost only positive reviews. The review was published but they
quietly changed its contents. They replaced some words (I guess it was
too strong language like "crap" or something) but even worse they
removed at least one whole sentence and after that the review didn't
make much sense anymore and it looked like I wrote it like that.

Then I watched the statistics about how many people found this
helpful. At that time this was in two numbers: people who think its
helpful and people who don't. Over months that ratio kept the
same. Started with 1 helpful, 3 not helpful. Then 10 helpful, 30 not
helpful. Then 30 helpful, 90 not helpful. I found that highly
suspicious.

Since then, amazon reviews are dead to me.

It's pretty easy to get a firehose.
I can actually verify and tell you why. Amazon will not allow you to criticize Amazon or their platform in a review (they said as much). Only the product. They probably do automatic sentiment detection for negative phrases containing Amazon and don’t allow them to be posted.

The platform and shipping are relevant in a product review.

IBM is a special company that seems to not want anyone to use its products. They sure go out of there way to make things hard to access. But they keep them around forever.

Lots of people believe this but it's false.

JVM vs C++ depends very much on the code shapes and what the code is doing. C++ that's very heavy on virtual function calls can be faster written as Java. On the other hand if you use a lot of SIMD intrinsics and things like that, C++ can be a lot faster.

W.R.T. AOT vs JIT, as others are pointing out, Graal is a compiler that can execute in both modes, i.e. it's a comparable compiler. JITC is about a 20% win for relatively static languages like Java and can be massively larger (like 4000%+) for other languages like JavaScript or Ruby. In fact the nature of very dynamic languages like Ruby or Python or JavaScript mean there's little point trying to AOT compile them at all because there'd be almost no optimisations you could safely do ahead of time.

Making a programming language
Just yesterday, I saw a (German) news report about Volvo's line of electric trucks which is coming out next year. They said that Volvo hopes that those trucks will be allowed to drive in cities at night because they don't make engine noises, thus helping to partly alleviate the traffic issues that cities are dealing with at daytime. (Not sure if that adds up; a large portion of street noise comes from the tires.)
TIL: AWS Charges for Failed Multi Part Uploads to S3 Which You Cant Find
We at CryptoGround (https://www.cryptoground.com/)use AWS S3 backup for backup of our DB & Files. We do a backup every 6 hours. Our backup files are of around 400-500 (we do code backup + DB + all images). We store around 10 backups and delete rest. So it's around 40 GB usage but every month since few months we are being charged for 4 TB usage.

I tried to contact so many time AWS support but no one responded properly. Finally, one CS guy said you are being charged for failed multipart uploads.

That is if you try to upload a file and it's partially uploaded and it got failed then they do not delete that file nor they show it anywhere in the S3 panel that there is so much of failed multipart upload.

And they gave this solution:

To resolve this, go to the bucket, click on management, go to the life cycle, and create a policy. Set it for their entire bucket, skip the transition page and under the expired page, set the rule to delete multi-part uploads after 1 day. This should clean up the buckets. (They need to do this for all buckets).

I googled a lot about this and found there are similar various hidden charges which gets charged if you do some minor mistakes and they are not easily reflected on the invoice.
Currently making a programming language, probably won't become massively popular but here it is anyways.

Dropping out doesn't mean they didn't already get a lot of benefit from their schooling. Just that they realized they didn't need the piece of paper and could do the rest on their own.

There's nothing about being a technical person that requires any special consideration, it's not an impediment.

If I think that reviews could be suspect I use ReviewMeta[0]. The process usually indicates if the reviews are legit or not. although for this product, it claims that it passes. Might be that 99 reviews have been deleted though, and Amazon is attempting to fix those reviews.

That was quite an entertaining post. My grandma used to say that the difference between a Swiss and a German is that if we'd forget to cut the lawn, the neighbor would be annoyed after a week. In Switzerland they'd call the Police on day 2.

Trains are also late in Germany. A lot. I blame DB.

They come up with the silliest excuses too, like that one time were they claimed that the track bed had caught fire. I would have believed it if it wasn't -10°C in the dead winter while it snowed like crazy.

On the other hand I do have a punctuality tick, I have counted out the exact amount of time it takes to get to the train station and I wake up at 0600 with or without alarm clock, regardless of when I fell asleep. I also make sure that my clocks are set as exact as possible (I used to run a GPS powered NTP server just for my devices).
Why? When I receive a damaged product, this causes me substantial hassle (communicate with customer support, send item back, order replacement, ...). It seems very natural to write a review that reflects the poor quality of the product in this situation, and this review would be a useful signal to others.

Who truly lays claim to the French fry?
I regret having wasted my time trying to work through this about 2 years ago:

- There's a lot of sloppy content, i.e. misspellings that a spell checker should catch.

- Some code is syntactically incorrect. Some hasn't been ported over and is still in Scheme.

- The author's claim that the core points are present is somewhat dubious, since only parts of chapter 1 are reasonably complete.

- The difference in writing quality from the original text and what the author has changed is quite jarring. The original's prose is efficient, insightful, and deeply connected with other content. The new stuff is at best blog-quality.

- The author has certainly abandoned this project. Nor does it look like he'd be up to the task, even if he did have the motivation for it.

Ask HN: Why can't a startup sell saline to hospitals?
So saline is 98 USD a litre in the US. What are the barriers to entry in this market? Why isn't someone else making purified saltwater and charging 49 USD a litre instead, halving the price and still getting an insane margin?

Pardon my naivety about the US hospital system, I'm not in the US. But for all the discussion around health care in the US, I haven't seen anyone address the lack of competition here.

I would recommend an FSF-certified ThinkPenguin router that respects your freedom:

https://www.fsf.org/resources/hw/endorsement/thinkpenguin
I see many arguments incoming defending Microsoft and getting more or less visibility depending on the audience at the time. Something along the lines of:

"Let's compare it to some competitor who also does it wrong. See they are not doing any better but they are not criticized as much. How can you complain about this company then? You can't. We must be glad for what they give us. See how much good they do and how little you have achieved compared to an international giant. If you really want to do better go make your own store. You can't? Obviously you can't. Then you can't criticize."

But the bottom line is that all these companies are ruled by money first and foremost. Sure, there are differences in detail and the approach they take but in the end the logic of money trumps all morals.

For the "new" Microsoft this means that they have changed their approach because of money. Whatever good they do for us is because they think it will make them money in the long run. I think of it as a long running PR action and a medium change of company culture. If it suits them, they will change it back over night. WE must keep them under pressure to do the right thing by not letting us be held hostage by monopolies and always having a way out. So support your open source software because in the long run it will dominate in most places.
Great site, thanks for sharing.
Well, JRuby runs on the JVM which is developed by Oracle. Basically, if you're a ruby user who wants good performance there's not many other places to turn.

But you know Oracle acquired Java long ago and other than Google, I'm unaware of Oracle causing problems for any other users. And Google is a rather special case - they reimplemented an incompatible version of Java without licensing it. You're not going to be doing that.
What kind of document benefits from "transcreation"?
Most likely you're missing its a transfer pricing technique (to move profits to different entities). The actual cost of the saline from the initial supplier isn't as high.
I have a trick - looking at 4 star reviews. They are overally positive, but at the same time - talk about shortcomings (some of them may effect my decision, while others are not an issue). Typically, these are balanced. And totally unlikely to be faked.

For the same reason I avoid 1 star reviews on some services (especially recommending books or movies). They are often related to a strong, emotional reponse, rather than a balanced option that can be reused.

In general people use maximal, and minimal, score in a diffrent way that all other options. For a stricking example, see: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2322441/ratings?ref_=tt_ov_rt
Uhh, what?

You are right that there are two public tickers for Alphabet, GOOG and GOOGL, however the market cap you see when you search for their ticker is for the whole company, not the class alone.

Also, Alphabet has 3 classes of shares. A (GOOGL), B (privately held), and C (GOOG)

I assure you, the market cap is roughly $870B as of this writing.

I don’t think I’m following your point. That C# isn’t a VM language because there exist AOT compilers? That’s fine; my point is unrelated to the VM/interpreter/AOT taxonomy—just that dynamic languages aren’t particularly performant. I’m happy to concede the “C# is/isn’t a VM (even though 99% of production deployments are VMs)” point if it matters to you.
