> I don't wanna go down the rabbit hole of trying to integrate WSL with a non-default terminal emulator.

You open whatever terminal you want and run the WSL command, by the way. So just 'wsl' or 'bash' or 'ubuntu', etc.

There's not actually a rabbit hole. You don't need to change the default launcher.

Oops, right, they’re in the middle of crew change and there’s only three of them and one Soyuz up right now. That does complicate matters.
This is limited to 15 functionaries (despite having 23 participants), because it uses Bitcoin's m of n multisig transaction type, which limits n to 15.

Still, I think it's possible this achieves some success.

I'd much prefer the browser continue to the site, but clear all cookies, treat the domain as an untrusted origin (so all CORS requests fail), and as soon as the user tries to type anything, pop up a big security warning saying "This site isn't secure! You shouldn't put any private data, passwords, or credit card numbers in". Then disable the keyboard entirely.
Some information on how to do this would be awesome
No, if you want to compare autonomous miles driven by that definition the Chevrolet Cruze is leading in terms of autonomous miles driven given that they sold the most vehicles in the US with cruise control.

If you want to talk about real autonomous driving then it's Waymo.

Pothos is so easy to grow! I started with one last year after a move and have propagated it successfully 8 times... I'm currently trying to get coworkers to accept clippings so I don't have to throw away excess.

Snake plants are also easy to grow indoors.

When I was first looking around for indoor plants I found the NASA study [0] on house plants for air quality and went with the easiest to maintain of these.

To find how "easy to maintain" a plant is, just Google it and most sites that talk about care will let you know.

It's definitely not 'entirely'. I have a folder with a bunch of small files where explorer and other programs sometimes hitch for tens of minutes, and WSL can reliably process in seconds. It's too many seconds compared to native linux, but it's still seconds.
How funny is when a “Business School” launches a book full of employee reviews
"Product School" launches a book of 2006 on ProductHunt made by a contractor full of copy-pasted chapters of blog posts. (Read Amazon reviews)

And then... the reviews are all of their employees like Juanma, Gabriela, Roy.

Honestly, I'm super tired of this ton of "growth hacking" techniques. This company relies so much on them that I'll never be interested in taking their courses ever.

You're missing the point. Of course I know what 'MSM' means. What I'm saying is that by banning certain phrases that people use to signal something beyond the dry meaning of the word, you get better discussions because it reduces the (overt) tribalism. If someone would write for example (((Jake))) when referring to someone named Jake in some context (just for clarity, this is just a random name used for the sake of the example), that's not a case of 'oh you just need to know what it means', it's a case of someone using symbols or tone to signal an underlying sentiment while still being able to deny that you actually mean all the baggage that is implied. Sort of like you're doing now, where you're reducing 'MSM' as just another abbreviation (I don't think you're doing it deliberately, you probably just don't realize the broader context, not accusing you - but I'm still cautious).

And it's only censorship for a very naive definition of the word. It's more tone policing, which ironically is one of the very phrases that would probably be put on the 'banned word list'. Which in turn indicates how it's not a very practical idea to actually implement. Maybe it should be seen more as a 'guideline to intelligent discussion', where anyone using loaded phrasing (either be it deliberately, which would signal them for not engaging in honest debate; or accidentally, which would signal them for not being informed enough to actually participate) should be 'encouraged' through social norms to learn how to better express themselves, where 'better' means in a way that de-escalates emotional flare ups rather than digging their heels in the sand, preparing for battle.
If the machine is more expensive to buy but significantly less expensive to manage (if, say, OS updates don’t delete all your data necessitating hours of recovery), the total cost goes down.

The initial purchase price of a machine is near-insignificant to the TCO of a corporate machine.

On the other hand Iain M. Banks had "out of context problems" which arrive in civilizations "like a full stop in a sentence."

Also William Gibbson's idea of The Jackpot is pretty relevant. All the dice can roll to six and you get a situation which you can't walk out of - so radical climate change (or even not so radical), economic depression and a fairly throaty nuclear exchange or two.

Fix that.

I suggest you read Camerer's Behavioral Game Theory or even a book on Evolutionary Game Theory, the former does take psychology into account and the latter allows for learning. A standard game theory book also consider imperfect information, e.g. Bayesian games. The most comprehensive game theory text is probably the one by Maschler and Solan.
We really thought the future was great right around 2007 didn't we? You had nicely put together Macbooks that could run all the software you wanted, including from Windows and Linux land, they had pretty good support and overall decent hardware. Then they released the iPhone, SJ died, and everyone else in their management just started hunting either quarterly numbers or pretty&stupid design that works well for TV ads. It's a wonder that their software departments have actually turned around and started producing decent releases again. Here's to hope their Mac department will recover as well.
I have replied to your post on /r/Python [1].

As much as I like Hugo, I recently stumbled upon the terrible Go templates! This is probably the strangest and most limited template engine I'm aware of. It might be nice in an application to actually limit what can be done in templates, but in a tool like Hugo where the user can not easily extend the core functionality, more powerful templates would be necessary. I hope Hugo switches to a more powerful template engine one day.

Besides that I agree with the assessment that these tools are from developers for developers. In the end a static site generator is more like a special kind of build tool and less like a CMS (what non-technical users would need).
Ok, from a brief look into this before (I am in no way an expert) I think you would need to define what you see as a problem with indoor plants. Is it lack of light?

As a quick and not too detailed answer, take a look at the typical plants you see around offices - dracaena is one that comes to mind. I think it handles relatively low light and has the benefit of reducing mould particles in the atmosphere. Ficus is another one that I have had indoors and is really difficult to kill, though mine is outdoors now.

(As for easily maintained, I have had some dracaena before and they are pretty easy, but in both ended up getting some sort of disease after a couple of years).
I c, thx. Will definitely try that.
In 2018, transferring large files over the internet is still not exactly straightforward. Few years ago Skype was excellent for P2P transfers of very large files, but since then they removed this feature, and today Skype's file transfer limits are ridiculously low. Using Dropbox or Google Drive for that requires a pre-paid amount of cloud storage space: you can't really stream anything directly with any well-known widely available layman tool.
Many suburbs aren't like that though -- they are just parts of a city that are outside official city limits and not those sterile "Stepford Wives" dystopias. I live in a suburb of Washington DC that is basically as dense as the the city itself and full of apartment buildings, restaurants, bars, and Metro station all within walking distance.
In my moderate-sized real-world project (about 700 C++ source files, about 130k lines of code), adding -gsplit-dwarf reduced the time of a single-file recompile+relink from 7.2 seconds to 5.8 seconds, which isn't bad at all for a single extra compiler flag that you never have to think about again (assuming that it works with all your other debugging tools).

But much better than that was switching to using `gold` instead of the regular `ld` (mentioned in the "remarks" section near the bottom of the article); doing this brought my time down substantially further, from 5.8 seconds down to 1.6 seconds. Even without using -gsplit-dwarf, it brought the recompile+relink time down from the original 7.2 seconds to 2.6 seconds.

I guess my codebase might be hitting a particularly bad case for `ld`. I'm kind of startled to see such a large difference for what seemed like a throwaway extra suggestion at the end of the article!

This depends on how much light you have, what you mean by "easy", and what country you live in.

My personal opinion is that HN isn't a good forum for the question, especially when it's been written about on countless websites for specific locations/conditions.
I don't follow. Who is "you" here? The user-mode program, or the kernel-mode zero-page thread (or whatever its name is)? I'm talking about the zero-page thread here, which is zeroing pages in the background long before any thread has requested access. Those threads do not want to evict anything from the cache. This seems exactly what we want.
Ha good catch
I get the point you're making but my point was that I don't agree that energy efficiencies is what have lead to larger displays. At best I see that as a byproduct but honestly I think it's more of a parallel development. So I agree there is a correlation there but I don't agree with your conclusion of causation.

At least with the RAM example (where more RAM enables developers to write heavier software applications) there is a definite causation. However with regards to CRTs, I think we'd have seen the same trend to larger screens even without the drive to engineer more energy efficient hardware (and in fact we did see that with plasma screens back when they were in vogue. Plasma was favoured for bigger displays because it produced better looking screens* despite LCD being more energy efficient).

* better viewing angles, refresh rates, sharper display, better contrast

Spider plants are one of my favourites, you can get them from pretty much any garden centre and they are easy to propagate/maintain. It's almost impossible to kill Mother-in-law's tongue. Dracaenas look great, too

Thanks for the answer. Your reasoning makes sense.

Still, I think allowing your token to be traded more widely through ERC20 compatibility may have benefits that are hard to foresee right now. It's a truism that liquidity is beneficial. In any case it's probably not urgent given the embryonic stage of tokenomics, and quite possible not worth the additional engineering costs of adding another blockchain to the architecture.
In the past, I would agree with you, but with the recent legislative push for privacy around the world, especially in the EU, I doubt very much that any company as big as Google will be able to have much wiggle room to make privacy policies weaker in the future.
My understanding is that "ballistic" means without any form of propulsion (except the initial one sending it on its way). In other words, like a projectile (or a ball), just subject to the forces of gravity and air resistance.

In other words: falling, yup.

(But note that one could "fall" upwards or sideways initially - not like Arthur Dent [1], but like a bullet (or indeed rocket) fired upwards).

Case Study: how we have developed an online fund platform
Well, the same is true of every price level change, especially in food and housing. I'm sympathetic to the "fuel poverty" arguments, but fuel and energy subsidies are a pretty bad way of addressing the problem. Especially in non-Western countries.
If the worry is about the manufacturer rather than the design, then we have more than two data points. The Soyuz-2 launch vehicle, which is replacing Soyuz-FG, has about a 10% failure rate (including an ISS resupply mission in 2015). This was as far as I know the second-to-last -FG flight planned, as manufacturing has been discontinued and the -2 is the main production line now.

Running Kube on their cloud servers? Well have fun with that, the "vCore" is a very inconsistent unit unless you get their dedicated core servers. I moved back to Hetzner Bare Metal because you can't have anything that will push the resource boundaries on these boxes.

Also regarding Wireguard, I really like how tinc will find a new path and allows you to route over other nodes as needed. Wireguard can't really do that out of the box, every link is 1:1. You can of course setup something on top of that, but I miss the ease with which tinc does this.
Those might be the boosters separating. And probably a small explosion, or just the gases from the separation.

Edit: the boosters separated, and due to failure it might activated the escape capsule.
There's a certain fetish for technology that blinds us to the obvious power of biological systems. We end up chasing pipe dreams of self-assembling materials while ignoring the already-existing self-assembling materials right in front of us.

Seems like madness to me. The Soyuz is very well proven at this point. I'd happily hop straight on board the next one even after this incident, which is more than I can say for SpaceX - don't get me wrong, I have every faith in them and am personally a big fan, but the numbers are heavily in Soyuz' favour.
yeap. This is due to the way students are selected after high school. engineering schools are much difficult to enter than universities ( because universities in france theorically don’t have the right to select first year students based on grades... yeah i know...)

So, the most valued way to do research in france is actually to first do one of those highly competitive schools first, then go to university for a phd.

But culturally, companies pay a lot more attention to the kind of engineering school you’ve been to than to your phd.
This sounds like a huge failure of marketing if people have not got a good idea of the course content and objectives before taking it.

Can Introverts Be Happy in a World That Can't Stop Talking?
I get irritated every time Louis and others bang on about those damn "refurbished" iPhone screen assemblies. Refurbished is a term that is frequently used to describe a used product that has been returned to near-new condition by replacing worn or faulty components with genuine parts or parts of equal specification.

These screen assemblies are NOT refurbished, they are not of equal or comparable specification. The replacement glass used on these refurbished assemblies is cheap fragile junk, not Gorilla glass or a comparable substitute. It's a greatly inferior product, so describing these assemblies as refurbished is at minimum misleading; personally I'd call it a scam.

If someone sold you an entire iPhone as "refurbished" where it's mostly genuine but an essential component was replaced with a third-rate fake—let's say the motherboard is a cheap Android equivalent running Android with an iPhone theme—everyone would agree that was a scam. The only difference between a fake motherboard and fake glass is most consumers will be unaware they've been scammed... until it breaks. (And even then, most consumers will just consider it bad luck and blame themselves.)

I know multiple people who have had their cracked iPhones independently repaired only to have the screen break again after a matter of days or weeks, under the most innocuous of circumstances. We are being scammed, and Louis Rossman defends the scammers.
Ideally , Firefox would be downloaded from official Mozilla Flatpak repo, Blender from Blender Flatpak repo on Blender server, etc... And we would have this list of those repo on our distro.

However because the official adoption is slow (very few software have official flatpak repo), flathub allowed the community to build packages themselves. But this is clearly not how it should be.

The second (more legit) reason of flathub is that small developer might not want to pay a server to host their app and flathub proposes to host their repo.
It depends. I've seen some shit on cheap bare metal providers, including getting ARP poisoned on Online.net.

An interesting thing regarding the NOP (no operation) instruction many CPUs have, is that it many times is implemented as a pseudo-instruction. Ie, what actually runs is something that has no effect, eg move contents from a register onto the same register.

It has also given name to the human activity of "NOPping", similar to zoning out.

So many posts sit on the front page with many upvotes and zero comments.

There's a weird mechanism that punishes posts with comments, because they are deemed "controversial".

Regarding downvoting - just disable it. What makes the echo chamber even worse is that only users with a certain amount of points are able to downvote. So people who have already avoided being downvoted by others get to effectively police who else amasses the required number of points to be able to downvote. It's a vicious cycle where only a group of like minded people will be able to downvote.
That is a great point, thanks!
Slow-moving disasters tend to end up as "devil take the hindmost"; afterwards the best off survivors can say it was fine but not everybody made it.

> wait 'till you run into Gnome, GTK and KDE, where not only do windows not remember their previous position on multi-screens, but desktop icons don't remember their position on a single one :-).

KDE has explicit settings to remember window position which works well. As for icons, I haven't had icons on my desktop besides a dock for years, so can't tell you.
Well, turning off the CPU would mean having to turn it on again afterwards. I can imagine that taking time, and slowing down overall CPU performance.
