Go with off the shelf. You'll get something far better that you can build yourself, and if you need something custom, you'll have a much clearer idea what your analysis is missing.

Writing to Google Analytics, Amplitude, Mixpanel (all of which have free tiers) or equivalent all should handle your case well.
It seems self-evident to me that if you present humans with a set of novel stimuli, giving them a 'vocabulary' for the configuration of the stimuli would help them remember the configuration more durably.

Ex. sets of 3 blocks of various colors are presented to subjects. Either the experimenter gives a 'control lecture' showing possible upcoming sets and they just list the colors, or they teach the subject a name for each of the possible sets - gibberish like 'flurback' and 'orshwalg'. Present a list of sets, spending the same amount of time 'discussing' each set with each set - either with or without using names.

I would predict the 'names' group would significantly outperform in long-term memory formation of which sets were shown in which order.
I have found this with myself - in uni ~7 years ago I was pretty into powerlifting (around 120kg squat, 120kg bench, 170kg deadlift at 184cm/81kg). Now as I go through on and off periods of training due to life etc. I find that it is relatively quick and easy for me to get back into decent shape. Like 2 weeks of training after even months of eating poorly and drinking too much is enough to get good muscle definition back and my strength goes back to probably 80% of my youthful peak. Obviously this is anecdata, YMMV.
Well you are clearly not in the target audience. Are you using any of the software they are mentioning in their announcement presentation? This thing is meant for people that don’t pay for their Computer out of their own pocket. We have way more expensive servers installed for running EDA tools. Hell a single FPGA card by Xilinx can be more expensive than the base price. Same goes for the display, people spent 20k+ on such displays without flinching.
If you’ve ever used similarly-specced Dell and Apple machines, you should know where the difference is: noise, build quality, long-term support, predictability in OS interaction.

Dollar for dollar, this MacPro is not particularly egregious, imho, once you factor in those elements. Maybe it could have done with a slightly cheaper entry-level option, but they don’t want to risk cannibalizing their laptop market. MacPro prices start exactly where MBP prices end: that’s not a coincidence, and I’m surprised pundits have not picked up on this. The real message from Apple is: “if you can get by with laptop specs, buy a laptop (because we make more money on that form-factor, due to higher numbers).“

The monitor is a different discussion altogether. Apple gets in and out of that market every few years, probably depending on whether they think there is some technological improvement available that allows them to claim “best in class” at reasonable price points.

Ask HN: Self-Hosted Photo Blog?

I am not so sure of that. People are pretty comfortable using decimals for distances in the metric system. And you can always switch to the unit below.

[edit] In fact the reason we don't use decimals for time is probably precisely because it is not using a metric system. What does 1.3h means? 1h and 18 minutes or 1h and 30 minutes?

> The traditional techniques that automatically establish humanity without determining identity are more and more vulnerable to AI, so the only way to keep CAPTCHAs effective is to integrate identity.

Is it? What's stopping AI from developing an identity in the eyes of Google? An AI that might behave exactly like Google's ideal user. Searches random stuff on their search, looks at and clicks their ads, logs in to various Google services, and when it encounters a ReCaptcha, it clicks the "I'm not a robot" checkbox.

At some point, caring about privacy might turn out to be the distinguishing feature of humans.
"90 percent of people do it" is not an argument against rejecting someone for it. If I had two otherwise-identical candidates but one of them had photos of themselves online passed out in a pool of their own vomit and the other didn't, I'd pick the one who didn't. Same for other evidence of poor judgment, like a picture of them in a racist Halloween costume or comments mocking a disabled person or screenshots from an oh-so-funny thread on 8chan. If you don't want something to be part of your public image keep it private.
I don't know about uni/college in USA or America but in The Netherlands brand clothing starts at high school. And nearly all brand clothing is bullshit because you pay to advertise a brand, and wear it. It is a silly status symbol. You might argue that Apple is the same. Personally, I'd say that the popular alternative (Android/Windows) is just you paying with your privacy.
> Good luck tracking down every company/user that has visited your page then. Any single one of them could be archivers.

Could be, sure. And anyone could wear a hidden camera and secretly take your picture, or a wire and secretly record you.

If any of those undercover archivers re-publishes your content, send a DMCA notice and sue them. Where copyright infringement is a crime, report them.

There's a cultural component to this, I believe. Americans seem to feel that pictures, recordings etc taken in public are fair game, continental Europe has a different stance. Even in public, you can't take pictures of ordinary people and publish them (unless they're part of an extraordinary event).

That's basically the way it is anyway. If you go out in public (physically or virtually), you've lost some control over how long-reaching your actions might be. If you do something stupid in public, you can't prevent people from posting their videos/photos of it, or just talking about you. The internet is no different. While you can get your stuff removed from some places, you have no control over it generally speaking. Somebody might have screenshots for example.

Equally being too defensive and over-complicating code in case a "bad" developer makes a breaking change often leads to code that is worse in the long term.

A Mac Mini with an eGpu and external drives is the closest thing to a normal desktop machine in the Apple universe, but it still is a very inelegant solution compared to if Apple offered a desktop machine between the Mini and the Pro. Also, while the Mini got a nice upgrade, for a real desktop, the processor isn't ample - the iMac at least offers an 8-core i9.
If I go to the database/South Africa I can recognise many of these structures (all are different types of huts), but without any notes or annotations.

What's interesting is that most houses being built in rural areas in SA (as e.g. opposed to Botswana) are not true vernacular but cross over buildings. In the process a lot of traditional architechture are being replaced; in this regard I think what would be cool is to find talented architects to "preserve" some of this in new commercial buildings.

Rural building are now much more Western (with huts having rooms are not possible, you sort of can have "graphs" though). The budget constraints also mean that houses may be built room by room over many years. One interesting "vernacular" developments I would say is pillars. Rural villages love them! It would be interesting to see how this evolves into a 21st century vernacular.

Lets examine this against the top, root comment, and their comparison to white water rafting.

We can debate our course while we cruise slowly on smooth water. But in choppy waters, we need a Captain to decide whether we go left or right around that big rock.

I dont see this as such a bad thing for Flat Orgs. Nobody is in charge, but someone has to make the decisions.

If we need to switch out who's in the role? Its a lot easier when there's no official title, no extra prestige, no pay raise, nothing but the burden of leadership actually felt as a burden.

But what'll make that burden worthwhile? I care that my comra-... coworkers and I get this chance to enrich ourselves and our clients. Maybe we're sheltering in place from an economic maestrom outside, maybe we're here to make a home, maybe this is one step on a larger journey. Regardless, we have much to offer one another along the way.
Then dont publish and share your pictures and conversations with everyone. Privacy goes out the window the moment you share stuff with everyone on your own. If you want control over your content you need access control. Its the difference of actually publishing pictures of yourself online instead of being photographed in public. Privacy covers the second not the first.

We drink boiled water just because we like it warm. It's part of the culture. It's also one of the reasons why there are few epidemics when natural disaster strikes.

We are a surveillance state and it's worth discussing and condemning in every aspect, but talking about tapped water just dilutes the topic.

The other trick is to add a random string/number in from of the name attribute e.g. name="348349_name". This prevents autofill. Interestingly 1Password and LastPass are smart enough to infer that it's a name or email field.

For the honeypot, random number + word makes it ignored by autofill/1password
It is funny how people who read a lot say the same thing about people who watch a lot of movies/series or play a lot of [video] games.

I suppose Usenet was the first public massively available cesspit to read and write. You could regard it as a practice ground for either.

With regards to creating content, it requires life experience in general as inspiration. You could obtain such life experience by doing things such as climbing or hiking or traveling or reading or watching TV or playing video games or interacting with random people on the Internet or going out every Friday night to the pub. Who's to say which of these are effective, or not? Why even make such a bifurcation in the first place?
We should launch more alternative servers and avoid central big servers as much as possible. There's no reason to buy Matrix if they don't have a lot of users.

Honestly I think that we need implementations with smaller RAM requirements. Last time I've heard that it's recommended to have 2 GB RAM for Matrix. That's a lot. I can run VPN, SMTP, IMAP, HTTP, Tor servers along with operating system in a 256 MB VPS. I can imagine that a lot of folks are employing similar low-power VPS for personal needs. Now if they want to launch Matrix, they have to significantly upgrade their VPS. I see no reason why personal home server with few users should require more than a couple of megabytes. I hope that alternative implementations like Dendrite will be better in that aspect.
That's indeed a risk.

Though XMPP had to deal with a number of paradigm shifts: images, markup, audio and video calls, persistant history, disconnected operation, security, threading, multi device operation. And I probably forgot a few.

Today messaging is much more established. So the matrix team has many more examples of features that are in common use and how other people designed user interfaces.

So it may be harder for Google to win through engineering. They may just break other matrix clients on android.

Count time via its genome, such that further generations increase the count?
Note: I build and maintain such systems for a living.

There's a lot of context that's missing from your post, some questions that can help us guide you in the right direction:

1) Can your website call out to external services, or are you limited to operating behind a company network?

2) Is this more of an ad-hoc analysis or do you want to invest in a framework to be able to track such metrics systematically over time?

3) How important is data accuracy? Adblock can easily mess with client-side metrics.

4) How real-time do metrics need to be? The big trade-off here is speed vs accuracy.

5) How long do you intend to keep this data? This is a pretty big concern with regards to privacy and storage costs.

I'm European, but I fail to see how anybody could have any expectation of privacy when in a public place. You either outlaw camera's completely or you have to accept that you might end up in the background of somebodies photograph. I don't think outlawing camera's is realistic.

I'm aware. It was just frustrating to see two major releases (five years and counting) focused on things that weren't an issue for me (indeed "Java 8 support" was actually a regression from my point of view, as it means my code doesn't work on Android any more). At one point there was a fork that was offering some more valuable features ("-Zirrefutable-patterns" was a huge help in some of my code) which I would've wanted to try to contribute to, but then it disappeared all of a sudden with all references to it vanishing, as if via some back-room deal.

Less common is an understatement. In Europe, where software development has always been a cost centre and margins are always thin, Macs have been downright rare until the late 2000s. They were “the computer for people who don’t want to know about computers”, with a very small and dedicated niche of developers that never intersected with the enterprise world.
They thought of that, the clock is almost completely made of hammers and dicks.

>IPFS is really cool—but how do I surf it?

If a site has a domain that's set up with a IPFS DNSLink record, then you just go to its domain name and access it over HTTP(S). But if you have the IPFS companion extension, then your browser will access the site through IPFS peers instead of HTTP. So even if the site's webserver is down, you'll still be able to access the site if any other IPFS peers have its content pinned. You could then pin the site's content and help host it.

This all would work through a normal web browser, and gracefully degrades to a plain HTTP connection to a web server for people without the IPFS companion extension.

If you have a domain name and are able to keep your site content available in IPFS (on your own machines you keep up, on a pinning service, on a vps, on some friends' machines who you convince to pin it, etc), then you could have someone else host a ipfs web gateway for your domain scoped to your domain such as Cloudflare (https://www.cloudflare.com/distributed-web-gateway/). Then you don't need to keep your own web servers up, and the only maintenance you have to do for the ipfs web gateway on your domain is to keep your IPFS DNSLink record correct. Regular users will access your content through Cloudflare (who fetch it from IPFS and then aggressively cache it), and IPFS companion users will access it directly through IPFS.

There's also the concept of IPFS links (like ipfs://QmQB1L5PDwcEcMW6hWcLQrNMTKWY3wxX4aDumnKi385KPN/introduction/usage/), which you can access directly if you have the IPFS companion extension, or you can access through a public ipfs web gateway (like https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmQB1L5PDwcEcMW6hWcLQrNMTKWY3wxX4aDumnK...). But you probably don't want to give links like either of those to your users unless you don't care for domain names. I think the IPFS documentation makes a mistake by emphasizing raw IPFS links so much as opposed to DNSLink records.
