Hello!
This is Selva, and I work for Zoho Sheet :)

Ours is a cloud-based spreadsheet tool, built to make collaboration easier.

Version History in Zoho Sheet helps you keep track of the different versions of your spreadsheets. You can revisit the automatically saved versions, restore older versions, or mark important versions of a spreadsheet. The Change Log against each version will let you know what changes have been made to the version, and by whom.

About the version controls, the Audit Trail would help you view and single out changes made to the spreadsheet. Be it change made to a specific a range, made during the said period, made to a specific sheet or even the changes made by a single user.

With complete Excel compatibility, better and fine-grained collaboration controls, an AI-powered data assistant and the ability to move data across apps seamlessly, I think Zoho Sheet should serve as the right alternative :)

Do give us a try! Here's our website - https://www.zoho.com/sheet/

Thanks :)

All we need is full socket API support for browsers. That would allow for a lot of possibilities.
How much of this is just disintermediated "reality" television, though? It used to be the case that only very few people could become celebrities, and this was mediated by the existing power brokers. Now people can become a TV star directly without having to go through the TV. Long hours are still required, but this is fundamentally a competition: you'll be beaten by someone putting in more hours. The real curse of full commoditisation of time and life.

The difficult bit is trying to untangle whether the audience's participation in it is just entertainment, or takes on unhealthy aspects of boundary crossing, addiction, or delusions of closeness.

> Just stop defending this company please...

As an interested but unaffected observer, I'd just like to understand accurately the state of things. It's quite right[1] to call out biased reporting that misrepresents the facts, fails to cite evidence of claimed facts, or that misrepresents speculation as fact, since otherwise all we get is "fake news" and lynch mobs, which just polarises the population and helps nobody.

If you have a problem with a rebuttal, then argue against it on the basis of what it said, please, rather than on the assumption that it is automatically wrong based on previous history.

It's fine (and perhaps even appropriate) to speculate in a biased way on unknowns based on previous history, but that doesn't in any way invalidate proper journalism based on seeking the facts, and the two should not be conflated.

[1] In principle. You seem to be arguing against the principle. My comment isn't intended to pass judgement on the accuracy of this reporting or the accuracy of the rebuttal.
Yeah, but we're just communicating with the local proxy, right? So it'd be browser > HTTP over TCP > proxy > socket > application.
This is a bias we are all prone to. We all need to beware of letting a claim fly quickly into "unquestioned fact" status just because it fits into our narrative.

What you call fraudulent is not actually fraudulent. It makes a lot of sense to allow this.

If a US company develops IP in the US, is it not normal that they then get to charge a royalty for use of said IP globally?

If you have a centralised office somewhere supplying back office services to all entities within Europe, does it not make sense to allow companies to tax deduct these expenses?

It seems like an easy thing to fix, but it's not. Particularly because multinationals _do_ actually operate in many countries and can pick where to base their operations.
Yes, but I'm a developer, why would I need more upper body muscles?

My daily activity doesn't require some more particular strength (although I wouldn't consider myself weak either), it's more about endurance. I've enough core strength to not have any back problem too (I avoid sitting on a chair though, but rather lie down/stretch out in front of my laptop)
> JS is the new PHP. It's really popular (i.e. lots of n00bs) and not at all elegant, so the programmer elite regard it with derision.

I would love to find a language I consider more elegant than modern JS/TS. Haven't seen anything yet though. I also question your claim that it's the "elite" who regard JS with derision. Fabrice is presumably fine with it considering he spent valuable time writing an engine for it.
A Black Audi has symbolism in China, it means mid grade official at least (Audi beijg in China much longer than anyone else). Normal police don’t have access to that of course, if you see police in a black Audi wearing suits and sunglasses, they are very elite and are often involved in political crimes (Eg Party enforcement).

As an example, normal police in Beijing walk on egg shells since many people have lots of connections to bare. So a bunch of rich kids smoking weed isn’t something they will go near, so those are busted by the Black Audi people (who have strong enough connections to resist whatever).
That's actually typical for the Americanized name.

Note that 1) is only true if your opponent is also not making many mistakes. Which fails to be true for most humans, where the combination of randomization and calculating state appropriate ranges is very difficult. This means that weak players can still lose heavily from mistakes/poor play within a reasonable number of hands, it need not be slim.

Furthermore, you can kind of account for such players by including more random or aggressive profiles in the inference/search stage.
Ask HN: Getting through the steep learning barrier for hardware?
For those of you with hardware-centric jobs, how do you get around the steep learning barriers for mastering hardware? Case in point -- the PCIe specification is 1300 pages long and even just reading the Mindshare book means I'm looking at 600 pages before I'm able to do anything. The Xilinx AXI specification is about 300 pages long and dense; I reckon I'll need to read about 90 pages before I'm successful. It seems hardware just requires a ton of steep learning, do you have any tips on getting through this sort of stuff faster?
> I've never heard my parents or non-developer friends complain about a site using too much JavaScript

How can they? They don't know what it is. They are complaining about it a lot of times you don't hear about it; every time they have to fill an abomination of a form, every time they hard-close their browser because it's stuck, every time they just wait for a page to load, every time 'something' happens they did not ask for but it happened anyway.

That's not the fault of JS but it is the problem of the ecosystem, the ease of use etc. Messing things up and 'good enough' are very popular things it seems. The thing is that, on the internet, good enough can go wrong in many ways. And the ways it does just tired people out in reporting it. Besides the billion $ sites (and still there , but less), there are so many bugs in the average website; we just ignore them and start over or go somewhere else because it's just not worth burning your energy on; no-one is going to change. And a lot of that is broken JS. Again, not the fault of the language JavaScript, but of the fast and loose usage of the language.

Anecdotally, but I am sure this resonates with people who sometimes do not order only from Amazon, I tried to order some impossible meat from a site here and when it was time to pay, there was a JS undefined error and it emptied my shopping cart. This happens a billion times a day all over the place.

JavaScript is vilified by 'the elite' because of it and that's unfair, but the ecosystem promotes it. Everyone is focused on 'process' (CI, deployment, many irrelevant unit tests; a lot of busy work basically) and 'beautiful code' (style, linting, things a beautifier can do for you automatically) and ego (github stars), but robustness or longevity is just not really a focus of many.

That's not even the main part about the indieweb concept. What really differentiate it from just having your home page is the interaction between indieweb websites. Mainly webmentions, but also profile-sharing across different websites, or using your own website as an authentication method in tandem with third-party identity providers.
That's interesting. I would be really interested in seeing this repeated and plotted as a function of the number of people in the group, up to ~50.
More RAM could help us with a scale test, or maybe with a storage-related benchmark.

Regarding the GIC, first I think we should spend some time examining the benefits from the A72 upgrade. Then, breaking down the time spent on each step of the VM lifecycle should be fairly straightforward (annotate EL changes, capture numbers with perf or something similar).

But in reality there are thousands of scientists, explorers, soldiers, activits and politicians all of the planet, that deserve to be known by a wider audience, but they are being ignored by the Anglo-Saxons and their propaganda machine.

>Maybe it is just me, but I fail to see any evidence that a counterfeit card is necessarily a security risk.

Even if it isn't a security risk from a data theft/malicious code standpoint, it could be substandard in quality and be exponentially more likely to fail.

A failure could just be an annoyance, taking Jim Bob's pornoputer off the home network and causing him to be unable to connect to the YouPorns until his nephew can come fix the boobie-box.

A failure however could take down a mission-critical computer in an emergency response center where even minutes could mean the difference in life or death for someone. Substandard components could also result in a fire, perhaps not in a NIC, but larger capacitors in something larger could overvolt and catch fire.

Worse, I've long had the thought that a hostile government could create ICs that effectively brick themselves when they receive a certain command. With a NIC, in theory, you could have the NIC radio home a small packet occasionally to report the IP. With the list of IPs you could very casually probe which of a handful of pre-determine ports are open, you could get tens of thousands, or even millions, of these chips in the wild looking perfectly normal just waiting for a command. Then say as a foreign government you want to launch an attack on the United States, you filter all the IPs in your database by location, which will remove the bulk of the machines in other countries from the list, and you have a bunch of servers in a bunch of countries get segments of the IP list and they start sending the kill signal at the same time (and if you get really crafty you make the compromised hardware actually start a timer before it bricks, so you can get the instruction out to as many as possible before the bricking causes widespread disruption of the internet). If you've waited long enough you'll have your trojan horse IC in businesses, homes, government offices of varying levels. If you manage to get even 100,000 taken offline, you've probably caused enough disruption to impact the NYSE as well as cause a good deal of disruption and mayhem. You may have even taken mission critical systems offline at power generation and transmission facilities. You've caused some economic damage at a minimum and based on how things go down you may have just made it much easier to launch a physical attack, especially if you have already trickled special forces soldiers into the country on tourists visas or via smuggling routes (United States special forces actually train to go into countries ahead of common forces to cause disruption and/or train local resistance) and can cause further disruption by causing mass panic with shootings/bombings/attacking first responders.

There is more to it than "oh someone can spy on my data now".
It seems to be relatively very fast in the space of small javascript interpreters meant for embedding. That's a different niche with different constraints.

I don't think this is a trend. Experienced waiters have never needed to write things down.
> the 2nd function was taking up over 50% of the concurrent execution limit and new events coming into the front-end would get throttled and in this case thrown out.

It sounds like you already found a great solution for your particular case. But it's also worth mentioning that you can apply per-function concurrency limits, which can be another way to prevent a particular function from consuming too much of the overall concurrency. For anyone who's lambda workload is cheaper than a 27/7 task, that could be a good option.

> Each invocation of the Lambda was authenticating with the GCP SDK before passing the event

I'm curious whether you tried moving the authentication outside of the handler function so it could be reused for multiple events? I've found that can make a huge difference for some use cases.
It's possible without being patronising or racist to say that India needs to follow a different model of development than the western one. In fact, that idea was central to the Gandhian independence struggle - just read the great man's Hind Swaraj!

There are many reasons for doing so. For one, we don't have colonies we can screw over - i.e., India's India - while enriching ourselves. Assuming we would want to do that at all.

We also don't have the window of opportunity that China had for becoming a manufacturing hub. That's been done and while we can compete for a percentage of the spoils, it will never be the gold rush that took manufacturing to China. The politics of globalization alone will ensure that.

Second, we don't have the luxury of several decades of uninterrupted "development" before thinking about the environment. Climate change is going to hit us hard well before that, and one look at the water crisis should tell you that the basic necessities of life will need to be carefully managed.

I have nothing against assembling iPhones in Bangalore. Or becoming the world capital of CRISPR technologies. However, those can't become the driving forces of a future India. We need to think boldly beyond those constraints. I am not saying returning to a romantic conception of an ideal past, but a detour around the mess that industrial capitalism is already creating and will continue to create if we don't think of alternatives.
I'm totally looking forward to the work that has gone into UI improvements. My prior attempts at using Blender left me puzzled, and I figured it was kindof the vi of 3D modelling eg. made for full-time as opposed to casual work. Though my son told me it isn't difficult if you know the basics. Anyway, I'm used to SketchUp and have a couple of models (no animations), so is there a way to import .skp files? Years ago, I used SketchUp Pro's Collada export with some success, but since SketchUp has changed to a browser-based free version (ugh), it looks like I'll need to use an old SketchUp install.

You pay per year. $120 gets you access to the photo bundle for one year. That's 30x cups of Starbucks drip coffee a year. Creative people who are 'struggling' blow more than that a month on weed, beer, coffee or Tinder. We all make choices that show what we prioritize.

Anyway, the subscription model for this kind of software works really well. Software keeps becoming better and so far Photoshop has been running circles around the limpy thing known as Gimp

P.S. I just got hit with the next year charge. I was annoyed so I tried installing CS 6. It's OK. It still beats Gimp but I would rather not drink coffee or smoke weed for a month to have money to pay for the yearly subscription for the photo bundle.

P.P.S. And if you are really really really struggling "creative" you are probably young and either go to school or have a friend that goes to school which can get you it under the EDU discount, which is peanuts.

When using Slack I was always impressed by how clunky and buggy the post editor was. Had to reload it a time or two almost every time I used it, and their method for making sure your changes weren't lost was to tell you to copy and paste it.
Security liabilities, most likely. Buggy decoder libraries widen the surface for exploits. And no software is bug free, nor first party vetting is free, nor sandboxes can be blindly trusted to do their job. Better not to take any unnecessary risk, especially since browsers are already complicated enough.
They already bent over backwards working around bugs in drivers the GPU vendors abandoned years ago to support 10 year old NVIDIA hardware, 7 year old AMD hardware, and 5 year old Intel hardware. And it still works on hardware older than that (at least on Linux) in spite of not being "supported". I don't know what else people are expecting them to do.

I don't quite understand how her "physical toll" is any greater than other computer workers, other than she now does her work in bed. It's certainly a lighter load than any labor or trade job, so that part of the article falls flat to me.

She should be lauded for producing something people want to see, with no external harm, that makes her a living. That's difficult, unstable, and stressful. It could disappear overnight from a gaffe or any number of other causes both within and outside her control.

Hi, I made this tool to help me with programming questions, without leaving my code editor. To use it you just type "helpme" when you are in an editor, followed by a query. e.g. helpme list multiprocessing. And it responds by typing out a code block answer from stackexchange. It's quite useful if you are rusty in a particular language, and it helps you get unstuck without being a distraction.

I hope you find it useful, and I welcome your feedback.
Cheers!
