Aether seems nice, but I’ve never had a “credit card necessary for trial” work out. I understand the downsides to the company for trying to collect this info, but I’m not willing to risk credit card hell even if you super pinkie promise not to be a jerk. Too many jerks made similar promises and then were jerks.

The pricing seems high for what it is. $10/month is not a lot, but compared to the value derived is quite a bit. Especially since the cost of such a service to operate should be extremely low. This would be cool to bundle into something, but if this is a great tool spending $300/month on top of all our other stuff for medium sized team doesn’t compute. I’ll likely use the existing crappy IM that’s already in place but drastically less cost.

I suppose that the value of productivity gained would be worth $300, but the cost of service aspect doesn’t fee right to me. If I buy a book that teaches me a technique that boosts my productivity I don’t want to pay $10/month for the rest of my life.

All that being said the tool looks great and the design is very considerate. I will keep an eye out for any improvements or if the software goes OSS or Microsoft buys you and bundles it with some azure thing.
> without having to worry about specifying a schema upfront that may change over time.

Thing is, there's always a schema. Code always expects data to look a particular way. Whether it's written down and enforced by the DB or not will have a great influence on your ability to reason about your system and make changes down the line.

This sounds like the same mistakes of Mongo all over again. Databases that don't require and enforce schemas trade a degree of early flexibility and development speed for a future of confusion, hacks and workarounds, and lower velocity.

Most people who make this tradeoff aren't aware they're making it. The rest of us use RDBMS.

(I get that you work for the company and I don't expect this comment to change anything - except hopefully the mind of someone contemplating using a no-schema database)
You are full of it. Germany, for instance, (and other European nations are similar) puts so many barriers in the way of a disabled immigrant that they'll never end up a resident.

You're telling me if I were disabled and could not work I could just move to Europe and live on the healthcare system? That's not at all true.

It is a super accurate way of timing packet receipt. For keystrokes sent across a WAN that wouldn't normally help you.

IMO if you mean that Google should check linked-to content rather than relying on link qualifiers, Google has been doing a bad job in recent years, as I can't find useful material among an ocean of low-effort clickbait most of the time. OTOH, relying on metadata by publishers won't solve this problem.
I had the opposite experience. Moved from Mexicali to San Diego. It’s expensive of course, etc, but in my case, I had three home robberies (one at gunpoint, I was 5). The best of living in the states was a sense of security. I know it can happen here too, but I don’t miss that.

The hope was to bankrupt the US, forcing them to withdraw from the ME (especially Israel and Saudi Arabia), like what basically happened to the Soviets in Afghanistan. This did not happen.

Sure the whole debacle did cost US a lot of money, lives and perhaps prestige. But that does not mean al-Qaeda achieved their goals. The US is for better or worse even more entrenched in the ME, with bases in Afghanistan and Iraq. And Israel and the Saudis are still there.

Some tend to think that anything which is bad for the US means the terrorist are winning, because "they just wants to hurt us". But it doesn't work like that. Terrorism is a tactic employed by certain groups to achieve certain goals. It is possible that both parties are weakened by a conflict.
Ideally your type system should be aware of all the exceptions a particular function is able to throw so the compiler forces you to handle all of them before it compiles.
Cool news! Just wondering about something. "API Management is Dead", said Kong's CEO in Kong Summit 2018. And then, first Kong GA ship with service mesh capabilities, making it capable for both north-south and east-west (API) traffic management. But now that they released Kuma with Envoy as the data plane, will that means Kong will be focused on being the API Management that they proclaim as being dead? Will the service mesh capability on Kong be removed?

SMS is not a second factor, despite many companies pretending that it is. I am alarmed at the number of large companies (especially banks!) that just blindly and stupidly follow the outdated advice of using SMS messages as 2FA.

So, MFA is great, if it is really multi-factor: TOTP through Authy or Google Authenticator, U2F or WebAuthn through a hardware key like a YubiKey.

Essentially you don't get paid to take the energy of their hands; you get paid to use energy so the grid doesn't overload. Crashing the grid is expensive as it means you won't be able to sell power (at 52Hz or so the grid operators start disconnecting larger power sources like nuclear power, above and the grid may have to be collapsed). So it's in the best interests of the power generator sites to sell energy at a loss if there is too much in the grid to push consumers (ie, big production plants) to burn more energy.

In the other direction, if there is not enough, the grid operators will disconnect power consumers, so in that case it's in the best interest of generators to prevent people from consuming power, thus raising the price dramatically.

Are there companies that roll up many low latency data feeds for purposes like this?

"7,000-year-old Dolmen of Guadalperal"

"While the Dolmen of Guadalperal has widely been compared to Stonehenge—and rightly so—the Spanish example was once an entirely enclosed space. And it could also be around 2,000 years older."

As an American living in Ontario, Canada for a time, I literally COULD NOT BELIEVE the gig economy there. It is what the US aspires to: a guy owns a snow plow business, employs 30 other gig workers 6mos a year. A woman does city/house hunting tours. Contractors are consistently self-employed. On and on. These folks, earning enough to live, and (to another commentor’s point) without fear of medical bills/issues. That really is it: that’s the difference. And it makes all the difference.

And good drivers can save lots of cash and worries by simply not getting car insurance.

Health insurance’s main alleged draw is that shit happens when you least expect it, and you can avoid the massive costs when the unexpected happens (accidents, cancer, botulism, whatever). Unfortunately, someone in America found out you can charge monthly fees for health insurance while still making the person pay massive amounts themselves. Just promise they’ll pay a slightly less massive amount.

All good feedback, thank you, this is helpful.

The cost of service is a little higher than it seems at the beginning because we do full isolation, you get a full separate server VM, your own database, nothing is shared. It’s not like Slack which is effectively a time share on a global singleton instance. That means we can give you the keys to the kingdom, E2E encryption with no key held on our end (i.e. no escrow, you hold the only copy) or we can do on premises in a manner that can be pretty much up to you. We even offer a service to come in and maintain your own air-gapped physical box if you don’t want to do the sysadmin work for the on-prem.

We can even accommodate custom requests like running the instance on our servers, but pointing the database to your on-premises database, so you remain in full control of the data while you can still avoid the maintenance cost for running an on-prem service.

Also, if you’re a team large enough for it to cost $300, we do enterprise pricing, and can actually tailor it to you, so you might actually end up paying less depending on what that ends up being.

For the features, you’re right, and we actually have lots of stuff in the docket, I just didn’t feel great about having upcoming features on the landing page, so that’s why it might have looked this way.

Aether is actually open source, this specific one is Aether Pro. I’m the maintainer of Aether and the founder of the Pro one. I even wrote about how I ended up there recently: https://blog.getaether.net/post/187618079292/a-new-funding-m...

I would love to hear if you have any feature requests, especially if you think it’s missing something. We want this to be as useful as humanly possible, and you’re pretty much our target audience. We’re designing for ourselves here, no holds barred.
May I suggest the parent comment was being sarcastic?
You can and should check your specs like they're code. For instance, you can write the spec in TLA+, which lets you specify temporal properties (e.g. "can the stall recovery procedure take an unbounded amount of time?") and liveness properties (e.g. "can any non-majority of disagreeing sensors cause the wrong trim actuations?")

To test your invariants, you should sabotage the spec and check that invariants break.

Once your spec passes model checking (or perhaps theorem proving with TLAPS), you can codify it in e.g. ADA-SPARK contracts.

Once you have that, you've validated your spec, your contracts and your code. Bugs can only occur in your invariants and the seams of your subsystem. This level of rigor should be standard by now for safety-critical systems.

I agree with most points but not with the bookmarking. Bookmarking paginated content is rarely useful, unless the content rarely changes.

The thing that irritates me a lot with infinite scrolling is that it ruins history. If the content somehow botches open in new tab then this basically constrains the user to only ever see one piece of detail before getting crazy.
Thought of that for a second, but didn't catch on.

With Apple these days, Pro means ‘bloody expensive’, and even more so outside the US. The rebrand may help to justify the pricing, but it’s odd to do that with such an incremental update, rather than save it for a year with a bigger design change.

For a lot of the world, a $500 smartphone was a luxury, and a $1500 smartphone (like a $3000+ laptop, or $1000 monitor stand) is an unfunny joke.

While they’re amazing devices, they’re just not replacements for a real computer, being locked down, with no exposed file system, and the imprecision of touch-only input.
> "Computer science is no more about computers than astronomy is about telescopes."

It's more accurate to say that CS is no more about computers than aerodynamics is about flying: Without flight, aerodynamics would barely exist as a distinct field, and wouldn't be of interest to anyone except people in a sub-field of fluid dynamics, and never intersecting with practical concerns such as materials science and the overall design of buildable objects. Similarly with CS: Without computers it would be a simple, obscure sub-field of mathematics, about where it was in the 1930s when Post and Turing and Gödel were active, and it wouldn't intersect with fields like electronics or, probably, have much to do with formal grammars.
Yes, agreed there, but in any sort of high budget capacity, I'd rather get an actual camera or film equipment.
What I find truly curious is how many people on HN (a social media) seem to agree that social media is bad.

I know this is anecdotal, but HN is the cause of a lot more of the bad things from social media in my life than Facebook is. Because I only use Facebook to organise events, meaning I log on two or three times a month. On the flip side I’ve just wasted five minutes of my life replying to you. I mean no offence by that, but there is fair chance we won’t even talk here because you may not see my reply (and I might not see yours if you do), and we’ll certainly never speak to each other again.

I think this blog-entry is insightful and well written, but are we going to remember it in two hours, or is it just another “baby picture” on the HN news feed?
