What was wrong with MUDers? I resemble that statement, but I don't remember SLiRP. Does anyone else on HN remember Demon Internet, potentially fondly, from the 1990s and prior to the acquisition by Thus? I just noticed that brand was terminated by Vodafone in January, which is sad, they were a super clueful provider and helped out EFnet, IRCnet and QuakeNet with servers back in the day, plus were a jolly good dial-up provider for UK customers.
A bit off topic but this is the best webpage design I've seen on the HN frontpage in months.
What a coincidence! i was literally listening to “The Emperor of All Maladies” on Scribd yesterday and introduced Min’s story to my friend during driving.
If you like writing some code, want full control (i.e. payload size, extensibility, theming, etc) with some OOTB features (i.e. zero setup, server rendering, static exporting, etc), and don't mind react or markdown, I'd recommend nextjs + netlify.

I find Gatsby and Hugo very powerful; but miss the simplicity of Jykell. Even if you don't think nextjs is great for blogging, it's still worth checking out! Their docs + getting started guide are some of the best.

For example; writing up a small MVP site to test out a business idea (https://www.hiredsomehelp.com/), it's in progress, but even still, only took about 15 minutes to push up via netlify.

That being said, I feel like all these new static site generators are terrific; a real sweet spot in web development in my opinion :)

There's nothing of substance here. Nothing grounded in reality.

And there's also nothing of creative substance here I can see either.

As compared to Kim Stanley Robinson who used micro-bacteria? to try and start transforming the Martian atmosphere to a more hospitable one. Seems grounded in reality and a fun plot device.

The writing was on the wall years ago. Intel became one of those "big company" places without much of a competitive spirit, and they started focusing more on pet projects (technical and not), internal politics, and all the other decay products of bigcorpism instead of continuing to advance chips. AMD, meanwhile, had existential pressure to get better at their core business, and it eventually worked.

It's a pattern you see over and over again.

I believe both are a callback to Freshmeat.net, one of the original OSS release trackers.
Intel has always bet hard on their homegrown fab process and efficiencies winning over competitors.

With 10nm, it's years overdue (we're now on 14nm++++, if my count is right), and Intel's just been incrementally iterating on Skylake in the meanwhile.

I'm really looking forward to the next generation or two, when we see non-mobile 10nm+ chips from Intel and whether they can make up the lost ground between Spectre variants and AMD's gains.
His real talent seems to be, "execution of idea". Seems like when he makes up his mind to do something he does not stop until it's done. He plows thru anything that gets in his way. Including people that aren't executing at the level he wants. That's a true talent and extremely rare.

Engineering and learning from mistakes maybe less so.
What integration are you imagining? I can send and recieve sms on my mbp with native imessage.
Yea for sure.. I would hope that there is some rule now related to making sure things can be deorbited with some scheme relatively easily? For example a mandatory unit that attaches to the side of your satellite that has a small antenna only possible to communicate with using a high gain antenna on the ground that can transmit back using a battery that is only for that unit and can only command some relays to fire thrusters to de orbit the thing and read back basic telemetry to help validate what the slow down burn direction is.. anybody know how they accomplish this?
I used Wordpress for years. It was such a hassle constantly getting emails about patching. In the end I got fed up and moved to hugo hosted on netlify. Fantastic. Zero maintenance.

I do work for a golf travel company. In my test code I have the fictional golf resort, "Fine UK Up-scale Resort", due to the way we sometimes abbreviate names. I was doing a presentation to management the other day, and which test data decided to pop up on my screen? I laughed, anyway... I don't think some other people were please ;-) Especially as a contractor, making sure management is pleased with you is normally job one...

That highlights issues of trust and game theory as well - "saving" in some sort of way (including investing) provides security and can allow rising higher.

A moral arguement towards spending is looked at like you are trying to sell them sonething and/or fleece them. And they are technically right about that - accumulating wealth is what makes an individual rich.

Investment in the actual sense would be a win-win. Not speculation or buying goods for the sake of getting cash flowing but things which provide a return. It is similiar to why lending out money/buying stocks is infinitely better as an investment than just holding gold - they provide utility. Gold just sits there.

Of course investing reliably and safely is hard, especially when the behavior of others impact it and nobody has perfect information.

It works - there is a script for Ubuntu that can be found on github that basically takes care of everything. The only issue I have found is that the webcam doesn’t work.

Wanting to, and being hired to do it, are two very different things.

Increasing the salary for teachers would mainly result in having better teachers, and a slightly higher tax bill.

It's not incorrect to say that there can be unintended consequences. It has been argued that one of the side effects of emancipating women, has been a decline in teaching standards, since the days when that was one of the few jobs women were allowed to do.
It’s kind of awful on mobile, though.
As far as I understand it, the mechanisms that trees and other plants use to make themselves plant-shapes wouldn’t generalize to other useful things like houses; e.g., the algorithm is something akin to an L-system [0], and there’s only so much one can do with that.

Well, there was certainly much more great writers at the same time, but composers like Rimsky-Korsakov or Borodin were first class by any measure... and those are two I could recall from the top of my head, with my very limited knowledge of 19th century Russian culture, I'm sure there's more...
And for laptops everyone is stuck with Intel 14++ until AMD delivers 7nm for mobile (Intel 10nm offerings look very underwhelming).

Highly recommend the ghost platform. It gets out of your way and lets you focus on writing. Nothing else. You can customize it as much as you want but it's primary focus is getting you to writing first.

This is assuming you are willing to pay for at least your own server. Their hosted option is also great and highly recommended if you want to just start writing before thinking of customizations.

I find static site generators to be awesome but generally a hindrance to the flow of wanting to start writing spontaneously. More often than not, more time goes into figuring out the perfect workflow for the blog system rather than writing. Caveats, YMMV etc apply :)
Intel has apparently been milking their comfortable first place for years. So it's not weird, they've been coasting for years as they thought the race was won.

I was a little surprised, but not shocked, that Intel's best reaction to the new AMD processors was so underwhelming.

Yet it's what we expect in most markets - and what happened after IE6 (or Chrome) won. Innovation stops, differentiation by anti-consumer means ramps up.
This is a great point. I'd be interested in seeing some data where words/definitions/"generic trademarks" are better protected. For example, I remember reading something within the last few years about the FDA considering cracking down on companies using "milk" in non-dairy products like almond milk, soy milk, etc.

It's almost a tragedy of the commons where there is a generic trademark that isn't protected, or maybe in the opposite case where everyone colludes to dilute the generic trademark to increase profit margins. Like using "blueberries" that aren't real blueberries but just made up of sugar and some artificial ingredients.

> Why it wasn't just named mail, and if the old one was kept around, it could be mail-old, I don't know.

Probably because mail system hostnames end up hardcoded in configuration files all over the place, and it's easier to add one and mirror onto it than to migrate the hardware while keeping the name.
Well, Merkel took in 1M of (young) refugees and took flak from the same people that are now complaining about recession.

Macports is good, I'm also a fan of pkgsrc[0].

As to Homebrew, I don't understand why it complains if I use sudo to do an install but then also complains if I'm not running as an admin account! If there's a reason for this splitting of hairs, I don't know what it is.

Thanks for the explanation. Given the original purpose of the code, where it would basically see "good" packets exclusively, it's not too surprising that giving it arbitrary "weird" packets could trigger bugs.
Some people can't afford to own a car. The bottom 20% of Americans, according to Federal Reserve data, have household income of $16,000 or less, and total net worth of $7,000 or less. Finances get excruciating at that level.

So if you're looking to minimize environmental impact, yes, the van puts a little more carbon in the air than having these people stay home all the time. But it makes their quality of life meaningfully better.
Apparently (it's not something I suffer from), people who prefer to be facing the aisle tend to glance out at people from time to time, which makes them feel at ease. Having the people at their back makes them uncomfortable because they can't keep tabs on it. For some people, this is apparently so bad that even if they are in an individual office they need to have a window, or keep the door open.
"Clinch 1.25" means something to the website owners and to their more dedicated customers.

I'm not that person though- I just clicked on a picture of a belt on their homepage, so "C125" is a random string to me.

Is "C125" the thing I want to order or the opposite of that thing? I forget.

I also wouldn't know they have a sizing guide on their homepage, because I'm on their checkout page already.

I know that sounds silly (and pretty much incompetent of me as a buyer), but there are a lot of eComm sites, a lot of places to buy belts, and busy lives for customers.

You either hold the customer's hand through checkout, or you bleed abandoned carts.

I found a comment online that goes:

> Tapered

> - easier grip to pull/cinch the belt

> - easier to get through the loop
Rounded

> - 5" less excess going through the loop.

> - great if you are sharing belts (if the smaller person is wearing the belt in its tightest setting, they won't have the excess talked about in first bullet point)

Little notes like this would go a long way during the checkout process.
To avoid updates and viruses, go with a static site.

There are a ton of good static site generators out there. My blog[0] runs on Jekyll[1]. Hugo[2] is a popular option. I've fiddled with Gatsby[3] and heard good things. Eleventy[4] looks as close to Jekyll-but-in-JavaScript as I've seen.

Since you want to be able to customize it, I'd probably take the static site generator's language into account. Do you like...

Ruby? -> Jekyll[1]

Go? -> Hugo[2]

JavaScript? -> Gatsby[3] or Eleventy[4]

Some other language? -> google "[language] static site generator" and see how many GitHub stars it has.

Once you've figured that out, most of the hosts support custom domains. Netlify[5] is free, and works very well. It's what I use currently. I used to host my site on DigitalOcean[6], but Netlify is definitely more painless, especially from a devops/patching standpoint. Plus it has a CDN so your site would be faster.

Was expecting social media, al la seveneves, but that is much better. I wonder where the data comes from?
Actually yes it is less valueable over time - because economies grow and goods become cheaper. An early pc may be about $900 in today's money. Now go further back to say the value of a barrel itself as cooping became more widespread. The currency in the past is a store of past value in transactions.
Thank you. The business model is likely faulty reasoning by my part: Observe that in current world the most effective business model is advertisement, out-competing alternatives, then incorrectly concluding it is the best in all possible worlds.

You're right that late night coverage right now is an issue. I think weekday service stops at 11 p.m., and it doesn't go past the early evening on weekends. But this is a start.
Naively I would think that at some point Facebook would say, "Hey, maybe we should stop lying and honestly confront the problems here."

It really amazes me the extent to which companies like Facebook and Twitter can simultaneously understand the power of social media and brand reputation while also being utterly unable to be proactive about things that will obviously make them look terrible. And also the extent to which "this has become a PR problem" is the closest they can come to a moral sense.
The OP's footnote for WordPress linked to wordpress.org, which suggests they meant the self-hostable software.
I'm not sure such a comparison can hold up, e.g. those employee numbers probably include the people working in Intel's foundries, whereas AMD has outsourced that to TSMC.

If you like writing Python code, I recommend https://github.com/sunainapai/makesite (makesite.py). As the README says, it is a simple, lightweight, and magic-free static blog generator. The entire static blog generator code is in a single file named makesite.py.

Add your content to the `content` directory. Then run `python3 makesite.py` to generate the static blog. It writes the generated blog to the `_site` directory. Finally copy this directory to wherever you want to serve your blog from, e.g., GitHub repo with GitHub pages enabled, virtual private server, cloud storage, etc.

It works pretty well out of the box and it is highly customizable too because doing so involves just modifying the existing Python code or writing your own Python code.

Disclaimer: This project has been written by my wife. I use it myself to render my static blog at https://susam.in/.
Possibly, by default yeah, but with `unsafe` blocks you can dereference raw pointers, which can theoretically land you in this same situation. But you'd have to opt into that possibility, and you'd be very aware of that.
I've been using pelican [1] with S3 for my blog [2]. It comes with a nice makefile that handles the generation (markdown -> HTML), dev server (localhost:8000 that regenerates files upon modification) and deployment to S3 (uses s3cmd along with API keys to upload to a designated bucket). It offers GitHub, ftp, ssh, and dropbox options for deployment as well, but I've never tried them.

I once had a small flock of chickens, they were a hybrid with some Surinamese jungle fowl, jet black and as small as pigeons. They cheeped rather than squawking. They never laid any eggs, and were eventually all eaten by raccoons.

Anyway, one day I looked out the window and they had all frozen solid, like someone hit them with a "time stop" spell. So the capability is obviously a defensive adaptation.[0] Why it can be triggered by the given techniques is a bit mysterious though.

In humans though you can interrupt motor patterns and get hypnotic trance. The search term is "handshake interrupt", there are videos. I went to a hypnotherapist who used it with me, and I started cracking up because I recognized what was happening and almost wrecked it, but then I made a conscious decision to "go with it". (It's weird how many "levels" there are in the psyche: who was going into trance? who was cracking up? who decided to go with it? who was it that went into trance? "A trance is only as deep as you are." is a powerful spell to break out of trance. Why does it work?)

Be advised that there are roving gangs of hypnotists warring in the streets for your attention.

[0] It works too. A friend of mine and I were climbing the scree below a cliff when we came across a mother brown eagle and her nest. She spread her wings to cover the nest and froze. She was so still that even though I was staring right at her from about thirty feet away, with my binocular color-vision eyes and human brain, I still could barely see her.

We left her in peace.
Intel ties its architectures to its foundry nodes since it both designs the chips and produces them, unlike AMD. This means that they can get some extra performance but it also means that if there problems with the new node, like the ones they had with 10nm, everyone just has to sit on their hands until it's resolved. Going forward they've decided to decouple their architectures and nodes so that this doesn't happen again. Despite what other commenters are saying, this issue isn't really a result of them getting complacent. Intel's original plan for their 10nm node was actually extremely ambitious both in transistor density and in implementation of new techniques. Too ambitious, as it turned out.
big props to hugo for using a static binary without some insane dependency chain, i'm really pleased with it. hosting my blog on a $15/y vps with a vanity domain and hugo was one of my first projects to learn to manage a server, and i gave up with jekyll after way too much struggling with ruby.

that said i'm not sure how it fares wrt to plugins, i think it's pretty vanilla in terms of user-facing features (though plenty of very straightforward theme tweaking is possible).
> Now that we banned youtube, people honestly aren't really that interested.

I recently saw some Sci-Fi shorts made by some Nigerian kids using some really interesting hacks to work around their economic and resource constraints. They were primarily inspired by watching other shorts, and learnt how to do video-editing etc from Youtube videos. I think banning anything that you consider "wasteful" isn't productive.

> Educating people so they have questions to ask, or things to produce, or knowledge to acquire.

Maybe you didn't mean to but this sounds rather patronising. Also, they were acquiring knowledge, just not knowledge that you wanted them to acquire.

I don't need a counter example; the original claim was too vague.

There are a very large number of countries, an enormous range of political philosophies and "authoritarian" is a very broad brush that accepts a huge number of government styles (monarchies, churches, dictators, oligarchies, company structures, etc).

And we know that the liberal governments sometimes do horrible things too. America is responsible for vast numbers of deaths in, eg, the middle east.

Letting people be free is a better political ideology than authoritarianism; but claiming that authoritarianism = mass murder needs support. Every successful political ideology leads to some level of mass murder, there isn't a powerful country out there that hasn't initiated a war and suppressed internal dissidents violently at some point. It is a question of relative impact and scope. To support the claim there needs to be evidence.
Because looking away may lead to death.
