> Those things are, so far, only sustainably available through advertising.

Really? Then I guess sites and creators that are sponsored via donations never got that memo.

We have plenty of money coming in via ethical channels. Sure, not as much as with asdvertising, but IME, most sites have severely bloated budgets compared to what they actually need for sustainability, and thats why we have the problems that exist today.
I'm surprised no discussion here on this given that it will impact so many tech companies...
> Which is exactly what happens during an oil crisis

Paying more happens; so does seeking to exploit currently-underutilized supplies (equivalent to outsourcing) or find ways to improve efficiency of systems that depend on oil (equivalent of increasing developer productivity), both a responses to the first effect of the supply constraint, high market price.

That's all kind of tossed out the window when people start bullying the maintainer to get their way. Now you have to deal with the fact that some members of the debate are decidedly acting in bad faith, making it much cheaper to simply say "okay, fuck off now, we aren't talking about this".
> The MOnSter 6502 is relatively slow compared to the original, thanks to the much larger capacitance of the design.

Though that is all true and good, decent speeds are possible with discrete designs. A decade before the 6502, discrete component mainframes hit clock speed like 35 Mhz.

Those used BJT's; that's the main difference. Low impedance inputs exhibiting low parasitic capacitance.
Yes. You get used to it. I get up and only drink water. I have a protein shake after my workout. I also do not have any caffeine prior because I want to learn to operate with and without.

I think many people are took quick to not push through something that is just a little uncomfortable. For example, a healthy person doing a short fast (24/48 hours) once in awhile teaches you what it feels like to really be hungry, know that feeling goes away, and know you can operate just fine.
Do you know whether Google Play Music's upload feature works in the same way?
Yes. Smoking tobacco is pretty clearly terrible for your health. Pure nicotine may not be.
In some cases, vault can change the password of the root account on the service, so that only vault is known to have the password. But you are correct, there is a problem here. There is nothing stopping you from attacking the DB or service directly.

You can do a lot to minimize that, many DB auth systems let you specify where connections for users are allowed to come from, only allow a single concurrent connection, etc. Plus you can encrypt and verify that connection with TLS, build up FW rules, etc.

Security is never "perfect" but to say dynamic secrets are wrong and crazy just because of this one problem isn't very well thought out. Your wordpress application will be hacked a LOT easier than your MSSQL sa account.

So dynamic secret people are saying, we all know our apps leak/get compromised all the time, minimize their leakage with a short lived, one-time use secret, that can only be used from X machine, etc, instead of a long-term, static secret that can be used anywhere, etc.

For sure, for high-value targets you best be auditing everything you care about, not just vault, but with a vault audit log, you can automate a lot of that comparison between MSSQL and vault, where before it was much harder to automate since the logs from every application using MSSQL will be different, etc. But if you are in a high-value org like this, you are almost certainly already auditing your MSSQL account creations, this doesn't change that.

> 3.3.1. Oxidation mechanism of cellular harm

> A well-studied potential mechanism of harm from radiofrequency radiation is one of cellular oxidation. Healthy biological systems require a balance of oxidation and antioxidation to fight infection and prevent disease (44, 45, 46). A review of the literature by Yakymenko et al. (2016) confirmed that in 93 of 100 studies, non-ionizing radio- frequency radiation caused a cellular stress response with excessive reactive oxygen species. He concluded, “oxidative stress induced by RFR exposure should be recognized as one of the primary mechanisms of the biological activity of this kind of radiation.”
Equivalence is by whether that name refers to the same object (like “pointers” in C).
Apparently you haven't been following the battle between Redbox and Disney - not even a physical copy can side-step strong DRM via access codes. From what I can see thus far Disney is winning the battle in court.

They don't need to drag you to court. They fine you using the new EU law, then you refuse to pay and you essentially decide to go to court instead of paying. Even if the company decides to drop the complaint in response either way you have to put a significant amount of effort to get to that point. Merely because you got an email at night.

This could happen 100x (or even thousands) for any mid-sized content platform. Most of these things are automated these days.

Besides there's no guarantee the parties will automatically act rationally and drop the claims of infringement before threatening court, merely because you claim you were sleeping. And you specifically said a judge won't pursue it, but even that is a maybe.
In that case the object's is hashed by identity (location in memory). That's how Javascript's Map (separate from a bare object) works for instance:

> let m = new Map
> let o = {}
> m.set({}, 1)
Map { {} => 1 }
> m.set(o, 2)
Map { {} => 1, {} => 2 }
> m.get({})
undefined
> m.get(o)
2

or Python's dicts:

>>> class A: pass
...
>>> a1 = A()
>>> a2 = A()
>>> {a1: 1, a2: 2, A(): 3}
>>> d = {a1: 1, a2: 2, A(): 3}
>>> d
{<__main__.A object at 0x107a9f1d0>: 1, <__main__.A object at 0x107a9f208>: 2, <__main__.A object at 0x107a9f2b0>: 3}
>>> d[A()]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
KeyError: <__main__.A object at 0x107a9f240>
>>> d[a1]
1
>>> d[a2]
2

or Ruby's:

> class A; end
> a1 = A.new
> a2 = A.new
> m = { a1 => 1, a2 => 2, A.new => 3}
=> {#<A:0x007fbe691ecdf8>=>1, #<A:0x007fbe691f4f08>=>2, #<A:0x007fbe6920efc0>=>3}
> m[A.new]
=> nil
> m[a1]
=> 1
> m[a2]
=> 2

Statically typed languages can more easily constrain keys[0], but even then the lure of all objects being hashable and equatable is strong e.g. I'm pretty sure all Java and C# objects are hashable and equatable (and can be used as hashmap keys out of the box).

[0] Rust's hashmap requires that its keys implement Hash and Eq, neither of which are implemented by default; Haskell's Data.Map that its key be Ord; ...
Always be late. Grabbing a drink / food is a perfect time to start an intro convo with someone that you'll have a real convo with later on in the party. Don't talk about yourself ask questions of others. Don't bring up work. Don't drink too much. Look for opportunities to help others (grab them a drink.. offer direction.. etc. but avoid man-splanning).

Most importantly have a good time. If your not.. then leave.

I'll add another point: if the reason to not do this is the effort, then why is effort being put into generative art in redis? To be clear, I think this is neat, and appreciate that antirez can and should add some joy into the world in what ever way they see fit. I'm just playing devil's advocate.

With that said, changing terminology is more than just a code change, there's a bunch of documentation, as well as possible downstream effects that would need to be clearly communicated without causing breaking changes. I still think it's worth being conscious of the words we use, and rather than looking at it as a "us vs them" political game, as a way to introspect and reflect on how we use words, and what they communicate. Falling back on "it's how we always did it" is a cop out, but if you're the maintainer of a project, it's up to you if you want to do that or not, and I don't think it's worthwhile for a community to harass someone for their decision, antirez was pretty open about this all.
Problem is it takes forever for the egg to hatch.

SF Central Stubway took 20 years to construct and will take another 20 years to reach the wharf. Caltrain DTX has been in planning for 20 years, construction probably won't start until 2030s. Geary BART has been talked about since the 1960s with no motion. Second transbay tube is needed, no specific plans yet. Muni Metro is at capacity with no plans to fix.

So you can build a lot of housing and tell people to deal, but they may be retired or dead before it gets fixed.
All these companies that use this, it's better, safer messages are really annoying.

Maybe that would help in less developed areas, but I doubt it would work in a place like Boulder, CO. Boulder rent just keeps getting more and more expensive. There are several reasons for this but most of the land is being used already. Changing zoning laws to have more mixed residential, office, and retail would probably help.
My immediate problem with this study is that they personally selected a sample of 60 damaged trees near radio transmitters to compare to a selected sample of healthy trees away from radio transmitters. The conclusions is effectively built into their sampling.

Gaming is one of the most competitive industries I can think of. It's very easily accessible by new developers and there's an entire industry of indie games.

> They argue that regulation is not needed because, if there is a problem, consumers would vote with their wallets to remove it

Loots boxes exist because they aren't actually a problem. A consumer has a choice between games with varying degrees of loot boxes and games without them.

Obviously if people buy games with loot boxes, they don't oppose them strongly. Personally, I don't have a big problem with loot boxes because I like cheaper games. Loot boxes are a way for game makers to milk more money out of whales while leaving the rest of us better off with a cheaper game. Banning or regulating loot boxes will only take away options from consumers, increase prices, or both.

People don't need to be babied by the government whenever a small minority of people make bad decisions. It just allows people to be lazier and less skeptical than they already are.

I don't know about movies, but you can definitely lose apps. I used to own a game called X-Plane that I played on my iPad. Then the authors created a new "version" (as a new paid app.) At some point, I reset my iPad and set it up as a new device and there was no way to download the app anymore as it had been removed from the app store. It is still hosted there somewhere, so if you have the backup, it will download the app from the app store, but it is not "findable" so if you have a new device, so sorry.

Sure, we have sponsored placements in the first slot, which contain the word "sponsored" next to them. That's an ad, in the same way Google has ads, and it appears above the list. I'm saying we don't let you pay to change the order of the list itself, in the same way Google doesn't.
I'm curious about this thought experiment when people are discussing the pros and cons of user pays:

> Imagine that in 2019 someone invents a perfect artificial heart, which has zero risks or complications, reliably giving 5 or 10 extra years of life to typical elderly patients with heart issues. The downside is that it has to be made out of a giant diamond and so it costs $100 million. How do we decide who gets one?

The point is that somewhere down the line, as our opportunities to spend money on medicine grow and grow (which by itself is a good thing!), we have to come up with some way to draw the "user pays" line. It might be that people with a "fuck you got mine" attitude want to draw the line a lot lower than everyone else, but that's not the same thing as believing that the line exists at all.

Density-restrictive zoning increases our demand for land.

I, for example, only need about 1000sf of living space. In city where the minimum lot size is 3000sf and maximum FAR is 30%, my demand for land is 3000sf. However, in a city where 12 story buildings are abundant, my demand for land is only about 100sf, including proportionally allocated common area space.

By not allowing dense housing, city zoning codes are making affordability illegal by statute.

Since time immemorial, some people have gotten outraged over what others consider to be ridiculous or trivial things. That hasn't changed.

Does C/C++'s STB or Lua's 3rd party libs cover cross-browser quirks and http methods like JQuery does? It sounds like Lua/C and JavaScript are used for totally different things.

this is a good point, but i think that's a symptom of the problem. fixing money in politics can help address this issue. currently, the balance of power between state governments and corporations is out of wack, and allows corporations to pull such shenanigans.

states that fall for short-term thinking (like giving factories tax-free deals) will continue to fall behind, but with reforms like these, the people can start holding their politicians accountable for crappy deals that don't really benefit the citizenry.
> Mmm, I think it's a huge stretch to say those languages were derived from Lisp

I did want to say that. I said 'Most other languages, derived from Lisp, are incompatible' - that means the languages which were derived from Lisp - like Scheme, Logo, Dylan, Clojure, partially JavaScript - those are incompatible. Like Ruby, which was either influenced or in the same application niche (web programming, scripting, ...) like Perl is incompatible with Perl.

There is a similarity:

Lisp -> lots of incompatible dialects

Scripting languages -> lots of incompatible languages

But Lisp has with Common Lisp as standard, which has enable many different implementations with different capabilities, but a large shared core language.

This annoys me, but in the end, I can click the "no thank you" button and it all goes away. I do think their claims to be the "faster and more secure" browser are dubious at best. But at least MS allows other browsers to be installed. iOS will give you a Chrome lookalike with a WebKitWebView engine, and no v8 JS engine. (I'm not calling JSCore bad). It's like saying, you can have any browser you want, as long as it's Safari. I get _why_ they do it, but it's an anti-competitive practice.
What about Dark Net? How is it going to be controlled?
Maybe, but my use-cases (window manager and other automation stuff) don't really have a strong need for speed or high performance. Mostly it just sits there idle 99% of the time and runs callbacks quicker than the UI that it manipulates is visibly updated.
So any contract is fair and there is absolutely no chance of coercion or intimidation by a party with an unfair negotiating advantage?
Yes. It depends on delivery, but it can come across very snobby when class differences may be involved. I've noticed when talking to 'upper class' people they often lead with asking about occupation, as if they're trying to guess how much money I make, or trying to figure out if I'm 'worth knowing' in their estimation. Reading too much into it? Maybe, but I'm sure some other people feel the same way if I do.

I make a point to never ask, unless it's a work scenario (conference/meetup). Besides, there's usually something more interesting to talk about.

Gradual typing can be very useful. Coercions, like any implicit casting/conversion can have problems. 1 based arrays are a pain. On this much, I'd agree.

If you actually look at the images they are not very impressive especially if you know about retinotopy in the visual cortex. This means that there is a mapping between coordinates on the retina and coordinates in visual cortex. I'm not convinced this is doing much other than picking up on this long established fact to produce very vaguely similar images. Seriously look at how different the input image and the generated image are!

I guess it makes sense that HN is skeptical about results more closely related to the community's expertise but it's a pretty crazy leap from being able to reconstruct something vaguely similar to what a person is currently seeing vs. trying to read someone's mind. I still have seen very little evidence that such a thing could at all be possible with FMRI. The spatial and temporal resolution are just far too low. The more everyone is impressed with results like this the more we delay the hard work of developing tools that actually have a shot at doing something like that.
