A couple months ago I started studying PWA.

I realized PWA's potential was on Desktop and not really on mobile.

I came to realize that PWA missed really two things to change Desktop for good :

- Sandboxed FileSystem API

- Standard Operating System Support

Most apps like Slack, Discord or Twitch can barely justify their usage of Electron... beside the possibility to have those apps in a separate OS Window they don't make an extensive usage of Node.JS like VSCode which spawn "child_process".

They just seat there , in a separate OS Window and they can launch at OS startup too..but in order to have those two features you must completely give up on security and give access to almost everything on your computer...

PWA really bring a new dimension to Desktop App, if Windows and MacOS brought native support to PWA ( using Edge and Safari without the need for Chrome ) this would change the industry for ever.
Why would the 15 an hour office workers care? And quite frankly if that makes them unhappy, they are free to find employment elsewhere. They were clearly fine with the pay previously, why should it matter what someone else is making. That just reaks of elitism
I don't know that native apps are the best resolution, but I absolutely agree with the last paragraph. There needs to be really clear user messaging around this type of access. The current state is, IMO, insufficient.

What do you mean? Your link is showing "Basecamp 3 has been up 99.978% of the time since launch." as the main header. That's pretty precise(;

Can you post a screenshot of the certificate you're seeing? It sounds like you're being MITMed. It works fine in Chrome for me.

Oh, and this is definitely a valid Google initiative. Source: Work for Google, am involved in this.
The 2008 MacPro was $3000 at the time, and was actually an outrageously good deal. A pair of the Xeon CPU's were roughly the same cost retail, nevermind the rest of it. Judging by the existing trash can one, it will be ridiculously overpriced this time around.

Ask HN: Do you know anyone who can sustainably code for 30+ hours a week?
When I say code, I mean it though. Daydreaming, looking at HN, answering emails, trips to make coffee - all that does not count.
Running things on "lean manufacturing" ain't helping either. With just-in-time ordering, near-zero buffer at the edge, everyone depends on undisturbed flow through the supply chains. Break that, and we're all in a world of hurt, as there are little to no reserves.
You can definitely install a newer MacOS, they run fine. It's a 5 minute patch to the installer, and away you go. My 2008 has been running High Sierra without any issues.

I’ve said it before: it shouldn’t be that hard for someone handy with a soldering iron to “harden” their router:

Look up the Pinout for the flash chip, find the write-enable line, and put it on a switch to lock firmware updates.

This won’t protect you against non-persistent malware, but it will prevent malicious updates.

One could attach a bit of logic and an LED to this line to switch on when a flash is attempted. Then you know something bad is in the stream.

Surely it will be 4 so they can run at least one 8k display, if not two.
The problem is if after step 5, Charlie thinks one of the new pieces is really good, and "envies" it.

The intent is for recruiters/vendors who want to market to the people at the event to pay the pizza place. But I totally agree that that's not very visible on the website right now.
You know what is absolutely undisputed though? America's love for guns. There are 120 guns in the US for every 100 people. American civilians own 393 million guns, both legally and otherwise, out of a worldwide total of 857 million firearms [1]. Good luck occupying that.

Also, FWIW under every circumstance that isn't some kind of military invasion phantasy porn I generally look less positively on our relationship with guns.

Yes, they need to straight up just build more housing.

Isn't it technically that they need to build massive housing that can get to the jobs in SF in a reasonable commute time? So either they need to figure out a way to get commuters into the city quickly (a mass transit solution) or they need to build a lot more housing where current single family housing is.

I guess if they want the look of the city to stay the same they really need a get-them-in-and-out plan that actually works.

“Affordable housing” is just a coded way to avoid saying “subsidized housing”.

Not exactly.

"Subsidized housing" is when the renter or the landlord receive a payment from the government to supplement the rent paid by a renter.

"Affordable housing" is a broader umbrella and can also include legal requirements that the landlord set rent rates for a certain percentage of its units at a particular level (often expressed as xx% of the average wage within xx distance from the building).

Affordable housing can also include rent control, like the type in New York; and probably other methods I'm unfamiliar with.

In my opinion yes. There's trend on dumbing down media UI on desktop, even though it doesn't have restrictions of mobile, with instagram being prime example - no volume control and no ability to move position. It's their choice for UI not technical problem. I have several sound sources - couple of sites in tabs that don't have volume control, media player, notification sounds, etc. They are all set in balance to my liking and I don't want to fiddle with global volume for every site.

Running AWS SAM in a Docker Container
This is because Signal works differently for group chat.

In WhatsApp, the server delivers your encrypted message to each member of the group. It's an optimization called "server-side fan-out". Check the whitepaper for more deatils: https://www.whatsapp.com/security/WhatsApp-Security-Whitepap...

Interestingly this is also what the Signal libraries implement. So applications making use of them will generally make use of this optimization.

For some reason, the Signal application itself was not making use of this optimization. My guess is that it had not updated its code yet when I looked. This might have changed since then.

BUT, and that's a big but, as a passive observer (and if Signal kept logs of things) you can still figure out group chat membership by looking at who sent the same kind of message (same length) to who, and at what time. Basic relationship graph stuff.
The reason those buildings are 1-3 stories is that most of the city has a zoning limit restricting building to ~4 stories at most.
I was just in SF too last week and I hear you, but I also feel for them. I would be pretty pissed off if someone built an apartment next to me. I like my views. I like my neighborhoods without apartments. This sort of thing is easier to solve earlier on, it's a bit late now. There's no free land. To build an apartment will entail buying up houses, knocking them down then building them next to houses which are already tightly packed and blocking views.

Frankly, what's playing out in SF reminds me of what's playing out in US. Who has the right to determine how things stay? Outsiders or those who currently live there? Outsiders will like a slice of the pie and will cry and moan loudly about how insane and unfair it is, but hey, if you have a home, why should you watch your home value drop because of new apartments? If you just bought a home for $1mil just to be comfortable with no speculation and hope that it will grow faster than inflation. An influx of housing dropping your house to $800k will wipe out 100% of your down payment.

As an outsider, I feel for SF. I don't really care if they build an apartment or not. If I want to move there, I'll pay the price. What I care about is that they clean up, too many homeless, crazy, folks doing drugs in the public streets, poop, and all sorts of craziness. Clean that up.
The point is to figure out how to offer the right package to the right people (I was responding to a question asking about targeting and segmentation) to maximize profits. It's not a question of affording to create them.

Mind you I'm not endorsing this approach. But it does make a lot of money.
This mouse is fugly, but I’m very happy it exists and will probably pick one up soon.

Why? The more types of mice available, the better it is for all of us, truly. If you’re somebody who spends a decent amount of time in front of a computer, you should be trying a lot of different mice over time. Chances are the mice you have is not the best for you.

It’s so cheap to do this, anyway. Such a small investment to keep your hands working into the foreseeable future.
Not gonna happen because people are happy with the status quo. There's the upper echelon of SF (those who earn $300k+) who can afford to live in luxury apartments, younger tech workers (~$200k) who don't mind paying for $4000 mission district 1 bedrooms, and the rest who are willing to commute from Antioch for their low-six figures. Oh, and scum liberal politicians protecting their own property values.

Of the ones that are already out, he was in Venom. Right at the very end
> Grow up. Be an adult.

Are you really so sure of your views that you feel that those you disagree with must be less mature than you?

> I use Google Maps. I accept that when I’m driving they will track me. I hope they do. I want to know if I should get off the interstate due to a traffic issue.

You may well already do this, but to actually achieve only being tracked while actively using Maps, I believe you'd have to turn location services on and off each time you use Maps, otherwise Google is tracking you all the time, not just when Maps is open. Assuming an Android device, I'm less sure about how this would play out on iOS.

> All this I, a consenting adult, allow them to know in trade for their service. If you don’t like them, there are free means to thwart them. Google will provide you the means to figure this out with their search. As a result, no I don’t care for this kind of worthless handwringing.

i.e. you are A) aware of what they are doing B) understand that you can intervene and have the skills to put such efforts in place C) hold values such that the tradeoffs doing so implies is acceptable to you.

If everyone was similar to you in these regards, there wouldn't be an issue, but people's awareness of the issues, skills, and values are hugely variable across a population. So while it's worthless handwringing to you, people who hold different values could (and do) disagree.

> Go after the leaks at the credit agency. I have no choice but to participate with them. No banner would allow me to opt out.

Good idea. However, I don't think it's reasonable to assume that the efforts against misuse of personal data online are entirely fungible towards efforts of credit agency reform. i.e. not doing this doesn't mean more of that would happen, or that doing this keeps that from happening too.

> Take responsibility for your choices and entitlement.

AFAIK, telling people this isn't effective, so it can really only serve to make yourself feel superior, not really effect change (since I'm assuming you consider yourself to already follow this advice)
It's not the media who makes money off wars, it's the arms industry.
Hasn't this line of questioning been well-examined, though? It seems like the author is just re-inventing Greek mythology. Does anyone actually believe that the world is an engineering problem? It seems like the author is committing several rhetorical fallacies just to seem intellectual and bait people.
I don't have any issues with PWA apps, actually quite like the idea, specially how it is done on Windows, ChromeOS and Android.

Electron ones is another matter, I already have enough browsers installed.
I never saw a pop-up, but I did take the time right away to disable it.
Brooklyn isn't really great about this either tbh. Sure, there is a downtown with high rises, but it gets 3 stories high pretty quickly.
What about non malicious security updates?
Are we not in the midst of a great war now? While not massive like the previous world wars, the US has been in active military operations since 9/11. Russia has been involved in ground invasions. I'll admit these conflicts aren't huge, but they are constant and sustained.
>> Gain land/people? If there's a thriving economy there, war will probably change that quickly. If there's no thriving economy, what's the point?

Natural resources are often one point.

Access to key geographies are another (e.g., sea access.)

Funny how I always heard that Crimea & Syria were about people and terrorists, respectively, whereas Afghanistan and Iraq were about oil.

Maybe all of these were really about resources?

It only accepts https URLs. Lighthouse in the DevTools can do both, http and https.
I suspect this is equally true of companies. Looking back not all what they bought was really needed.
War between developed nations was unthinkable 10 years ago, today it is very much thinkable. In Europe there is now an ongoing low intensity trench war already. Russians are mentally conditioned for total war by five years of nonstop propaganda, and their leader's idea of compromise is doubling down. NATO has switched back from the 00s cumbersome CONINS and relief mission training to combined arms war exercises.

If the political vectors of the last few years remain unchanged, a large war is very likely.
Torture does work in cases where the information is verifiable. Consider for example that the interrogator has an encrypted file and a subject that knows the key.

Torture is morally abhorrent, but it's not necessarily ineffective.
Then why not give newspapers the same protection if that is the issue, it's preferable to throwing the baby with bathwater so to speak.
I would have disagreed with you, if I hadn't read the top-level comment author's posting history.

Yikes.
You were probably never even looking at the correct figures. Given the track record of Chinese government at concealing the truth because it's deemed a threat to national security, how are they going to convince people this number is grossly understated?

If you cry you saw winnie the pooh irl, the 3rd or 4th time, people are gonna ask questions and demand you provide an independent inquiry led by a coalition of developed democracies.
The nr 1 Dutch channel is also im English (Nikki Tutorials). I think several of the top Dutch ones are.
Actually that is an UNIX thing, and not everything is a file on UNIX.

It's not a problem because Charlie starts by creating three slices of equal-to-Charlie value, and is guaranteed to receive one of those unmolested. If the other two participants value the pieces in some strange way, Charlie has no right to interfere.
it does not have to be a slippery slope. Would most people complain of ads in Google or Gmail nowadays?
I did this recently as well! It kind of reminds me of a Black Mirror episode, “Hang the DJ”, where a dating app used ‘cookies’ to arrange matchings between people. I actually wished someone could invent this for the recruitment process—a stand-in AI that deals with all the boring parts of life.
[edit: not good, see next paragraph] Charlie did cut the pie in the first place, and he thought all the three pieces were equally good so he has to accept that he got a fair share. It's irrelevant that he finds that Alice and Bob didn't share fairly the rest of the cake.

Edit: come on, are we really expected to read TFA or even to read carefully the first comment in the thread where it was clearly written “so that none of them envies other pieces” before commenting? (Seriously: I was obviously wrong. As punishment I leave my original comment here and now I’ll read the article five times.)
> * Barely half of US fighter planes are combat ready at any given moment. The trillion dollar F-35 had to be flown with VFR the first time it crossed the IDL. Who knows what else is lurking in that software?

I was not able to find any sources corroborating that story. Are you confusing it with the F-22?
You already can do that by compiling into a WASM module and reloading it afterwards.
Telegram's security is catastrophic, it's a wonder why anybody still uses it. I'm not sure if Kakao even has end-to-end encryption.
Flip the switch when you want to allow them (but why accept random OTA updates?).

The LED logic should signal you when there's an update coming in OTA, and you can verify for yourself if there's a legitimate update (and possibly load it yourself).
Speaking English means they'll have a larger audience, which is usually want creators on YouTube want.
Perhaps your browser is being directed to a page not owned by google. I don't get an SSL warning in Chrome or Firefox (Windows 10).

From the site: "With actionable guidance and analysis, web.dev helps developers like you learn and apply the web's modern capabilities to your own sites and apps."

It includes a web version of the Lighthouse website measurement tool. It also has guides for various web dev topics.

The topics can be browsed normally, but I think most users will discover topics by the measurement tool showing the user guides to improve their website.
So you’re asking why not simply use Ansible to deploy all this software? Because that would be anything but simple and would negate almost all the benefits of docker like easy updates and immutability. This is the best of both worlds in my opinion. Ansible handles deploying the configuration that docker then uses.

Additionally the plan is to move to Kubernetes soon for multiple node deployment, and that wouldn’t really be possible without Docker.

And to be clear, some software is installed directly by Ansible, where it makes sense to do so.
Ah, OK, I think I worked out what is happening. I have a valet service running for local Laravel development which is redirecting local .dev subdomains to Valet instances on my iMac!

Nope; I will be writing in "it". What you obviously want is to be writing in something other than "it". You basically want to be able to write Rust, Go or D into a file that has a .c suffix and is passed through a preprocessor.

I think this translation did a great job in conveying of the emotion/expression of the original text.

One thing that particularly gets me, while could be thought as somewhat lost in translation, is the expression of "掉在地上(fall on the ground)". It is rare to be used when the subject is a human, but rather when the subject is an object.
This is a good example of being too smart for a test question.

Who is "they"?

This is a nation of almost 1.4 billion people.

There are more unarmed civilians (including children) murdered by US police every year than all deaths from the Chinese milk scandal combined.

Would that make it reasonable to state that "All US citizens have proved they have no conscience"?

In any case, the Chinese milk scandal pales in comparison to what Nestle did:

If there isn't enough housing there's no way to make it affordable outside of the government buying the buildings and instituting rent control, which will never work given how much hate imminent domain gets and how inefficient the government is at managing literally anything.
Yeah. Recently I realized that alien invasion/zombie outbreak movies couldn't possibly have different setting than United States, because no other country on Earth has enough firearms just lying around for survivors to mount an armed defense against the invaders.

I find estimating dishonest too. I tell clients that a project becomes late 'one day at a time' and that the higher clarity there is in the objective, the more creative we can be about trying to solve the problem. so there is less work to undertake to reach it.

I don't think a developer's salary is high enough to justify taking on any moral risk on the basis of estimation of any project.

In Australia, even the highest budget software projects have major cost and time blow-outs, often in years and often in 100s of millions of dollars. If this were a solved problem then this would not be the case.

I think the best thing you can do is retrospective analysis of work completed for a given individual and a team, and use that to project, but I am yet to find a client who is vaguely interested in such a thing, e.g. Joel on Software's Monte Carlo estimation solution [0].

I'm cynical because it's early!
