> Does that make me a selfish asshole?

Nope.

With my own OSS projects, my attitude is that I don't owe anybody anything. I'm happy to help, take suggestions, take code contributions, etc. but it's not because I owe anybody that. As a result, if people are rude, demanding, or unpleasant, I tend to ignore them. I don't have the spare time or energy for that, and I figure that they're the ones being assholes, not me.
There is no way that digital maps are anywhere near as practical, let alone more practical, yet.

Digital maps:

* rely on precious battery charge and weight

* aren't very robust

* are extremely hard to use in the dark or with night vision

* can't be cut and folded into something small and light enough to hold in a hand

* when portable aren't large enough for displaying on a table or wall for people to gather around
Show HN: Guy is alive (create GUI(HTML/JS) on any OS (android too) for py3)
guy is a lib, to quickly release a GUI (html/js) for a python (>=3.5) script, targetting any platform ... and android too. It's like python-eel or wuy. Understand that the same app can work on any os, without modifications.

A guy's app can be runned in 3 modes :

- can reuse a chrome browser (in app mode), on the host. To keep the minimal footprint. (app mode)

- can embbed its CEF (like electron) (thanks cefpython3), to provide all, to the users. (cef mode)

- can act as a classical web server. Any browser can be a client (server mode)

A guy's app can be released as a simple py3 file, as a freezed exe (pyinstaller compliant), or as an apk (with buildozer/kivy)

Just a post to announce that It's released, under an apache2 licence.

On github : https://github.com/manatlan/guy

On pypi : https://pypi.org/project/guy/

The (minimal yet) doc : https://manatlan.github.io/guy/ (see demo section)

btw, wuy will not be maintained anymore.
many do, but uBlock Origin does not. Ad Block, Ad Block Plus and uBlock all allow advertisers who pay them. uBlock Origin so far has not sold out, and should be the only one people suggest.

Although Mozilla has had it's own questionable stuff going on, I still believe in the Mozilla organization. We need browser engine diversity, and with Microsoft Titan/Edge engine going away, the only alternative to Blink/Webkit variants is Gecko (I wish Microsoft would just open source their Edge engine).

I honestly don't want all that shit in the core of the browser. They should be extensions, so you can take the things you want. It's why Jenkins seems like crap when you first use it compared to other build tools, until you leverage the ecosystem of Jenkins plugins.
If it isn't "specific enough the user can guess what they did", like in your case, then it's a clear failure. So is a lack of a transparent appeal process.

Automation-assisted, not automation everything.

I wasn't advocating for blanket terms that mean nothing. You need to provide the user with something meaningful.
As a sole user it's definitely a feature-not-product, but for teams 1Password really is a product with its extensive access controls etc.

Kinda reminds me of identity management / authentication. These also are features, right? But I feel a lot better about delegating that feature to a business whose core competency is that (eg. Okta, Google, …).

"Payment" also is a feature, but I'd never not use Stripe.
I live just outside the English Lake District, a region famous for both its beauty and sheer ridiculous abundance of excess water. It rains a lot round these parts (though that's changing). It's how it got to be the Lake District in the first place.

Let me tell you what's ridiculous.

Local news is telling how we can soon expect water shortages as rainfall patterns change and the entitled in water-deprived London get increasingly frequent in calls to take ours or our neighbours in God's own country - Yorkshire, as it's long past time for a national water grid etc. Purely because they are running out and not trying to manage their use.

The south east's main water utility isn't being fined £100m a day for all the leaks they aren't fixing (apparently they have a terrible record, one of the worst in the country - if not the worst, for fixing leaks). I see no building regulations mandating greywater recovery in the short of water south east, or heat exchange from waste water. Just increasing calls to take someone else's and give them a water shortage problem too. Then no doubt continue ever wider until everyone has a water shortage.

A little way south of here, Coca bleeding Cola (or maybe Pepsi, I forget) stuck in the most ridiculous plant to produce clever water. Apparently without limit. Extract millions of gallons yearly, distil it to purify it - at massive energy waste, then add a precise recipe of ingredients and minerals unrelated to the spring source they took it from. What's the fucking point of that? Just use the tap anywhere on the planet. Oh wait, they'd have to pay for their resource waste by the litre then.

I think it is more accurate to say: Every single habit of industrial society has deliberately forgotten the connection with inputs, planet, sustainability, with encouragement from commerce and government. Once those inputs were always implicit in an activity, now it's an "externality" that can conveniently be ignored and pretend it doesn't matter. Few individuals have any connection with where stuff comes from any more, or the underlying cost. That is where the shame should lie. That's how everyone got in this mess - of resource depletion, climate heating, species loss, habitat loss and all the rest in the first place. All in my lifetime.

So no, discouraging profligate waste is not ridiculous - regardless of if a mist shower is a practical idea or not. Probably easier to shower every other day as unless you work down a mine you're unlikely to actually need daily.

In short, sustainable needs to be everywhere, in everything, always.
Any problems with AMD cpus and containers or virtualization?

(Really? Wow. Sorry for asking a question!)
I haven't straight up broken any connectors, but my Pixel 3's USB-C port is super picky about what cables will fit well enough to actually charge. I end up plugging it in, flipping the cable around, trying again, moving the phone so the cable hangs slightly different, etc. Port is clean (apparently they collect pocket lint), tried 5+ cables, only the original one has a decent hold once plugged in. All this means I basically _can't_ charge my phone on the go, in the car, etc.
That still wouldn't work - to be frank that sounds like neglect on a massive scale and wasting everyone's time in a paternalistic way. How would you like it if the government decided to handle homelessness and the foster care by assigning you an orphan and/or homeless stranger? Or being assigned after you lost your job? Yeah I would think that would generate plenty of work - police work.

There are twofold issues with it - one is the level of career education for the demands and the lack of true entry level ladders - most jobs skilled up and automated and two that existing areas which need labor aren't funded as much as they should nor alternatives chosen.
Japanese Scientist Insists His Robot Twin Is Not Creepy
I'll never understand why articles discussing environmentalism are always met with a certain amount of comments where people seem to be angry, offended, or otherwise upset as if they're being personally attacked. The police aren't going to come around forcing you to give up your current shower. Spreading awareness of ways to live one's life in a less wasteful well is a good thing, and the emotionally charged negative comments are a step in the wrong direction
You can heat water with DC and no inverter. Finding a DC water heater that's safe and inexpensive and voltage swing-tolerant might be a challenge.
To all the people "why not do it in Java / Java could have done it".

Why not do it in a different language? Having Go and Node around is awesome because we can change the language. Don't you get bored to use just a single language? I'd get so so so bored if I didn't change languages every year. Glad that uber offers Go jobs.
We know because there are still hunter gatherer societies around today. We have scientists who have spent long periods of time living with them and learning their customs and way of life.
It was disabled because it didn’t work. So I guess it’s in the eye of the beholder.
Do you use -Werror? Upgrades generally produce new warnings but (usually) no new errors. I use -Werror and I have to make some changes every major compiler version across my code bases, but if I just need to compile something, I'll turn -Werror off.

Phones: Electric Scooters or Regular Bike

Tablets: Electric Bike

Laptops: Standard Car, SUV, or Light Work vehicle (F150 space)

Desktops: Luxury, Enthusiast, or Specialist Market (Sports Cars, Anything above the F250, Hot Rod territory)

Servers: Work Vehicles (Semis, Flatbeds, etc.)

SBCs: DIY non-motorized vehicles

IoT: Shoes

I think its a great analogy. You can always get an over priced or over spec'd vehicle for your needs, but there are clear uses for some of the form factors.
I only have limited experience so far, but I was able to enable virtualization and run WSL on Windows 10 with a Ryzen 7 2700X with no obvious issues. I'm sure more in-depth, longer term container testing would be more useful to you, though!
Incidentally, in the last month or two, Dyalog have made their APL interpreter available for non-commercial use with no signup and no regular nagware popups when using it, and no disabled features, it’s a simple download of the current version just reminds you that it’s unlicensed when launched:

Am I the only one who considers this a good thing?

I recently started using 1Password, and I love it. I finally jumped in because a colleague gave it glowing praise and my company gave us corporate accounts. After using it for a week through my company account, I created a separate personal account for myself. I happily pay a monthly subscription because it is a service I benefit from daily. It also lets me neatly manage personal and company accounts easily, from the same interface, while still keeping the vaults separate.

I see this as a good thing because someone will become the password manager for large companies, and that someone will likely become the password manager. I'm glad to see it's likely to become a service that I think is a good one.

I understand people are worried that the personal use will suffer, but I don't see how. (I understand why people say that - less emphasis on a smaller market - but I don't see how since the corporate offering is basically the same thing as the personal one, to an individual user.)
The “Melissa Worm” Through the Eyes of the FBI
Maybe to challenge Deckard. Deckard refuses to play by Gaff's rules (street rules) then, but by the end of the film Gaff does speak English with him ("Too bad she won't live!").

In Blade Runner 2049, I don't recall cityspeak being used at all, and the scene with Gaff being interviewed by the new Blade Runner is entirely in English.
How mature is Bitwarden? I know its open source, but IIRC the business address for Bitwarden is a random house in Jacksonville, Florida? And that was only found on Reddit or something.

If its open source thats great, but most people are not building the clients for iOS and MacOS at home. We trust the builds that they host to be true to the source.

1password lists its physical address on its home page (and I think every page).

Lastpass is part of Logmein, an established tech company in Boston.

I'm very wary of a password manager trojan horse, similar to the Kaspersky incident.

Boss, executive, manager, supervisor. Person in charge. Of these people there are many who want their subordinates to enact their will in the way that requires their own personal least amount of effort.

They want to give ambiguous direction and receive exactly what they imagined but still be delightfully surprised. They don't want to hear about the unintended consequences of getting exactly what they asked for; they want it to "just work and don't trouble me with the details".

Pedantry is unacceptable. Everything must be interpreted exactly how it was meant to be. The rules are meant for others. If a subordinate fails while breaking a rule, then they are fired. If a subordinate fails because they didn't break a rule, then they are fired.

Ultimately, as we come closer to perfect impersonation at the press of a button, these 'people in charge' will have a tough time adapting. They want absolute obedience and unquestioning loyalty. Unless their subordinate was talking to a social engineer using a deep fake.

On the other hand. The people in charge who trust their subordinates, who let them fail and encourage them to do better, who let them question their approach and decisions. These people in charge will find themselves and their organizations more resilient to these attacks. "Yeah, Jeff might be a real jerk sometimes and he's always second guessing decisions, but he doesn't transfer $12 million just because he gets a phone call where someone who sounds like me is upset that the money hasn't been transferred."

Regarding your point about spam and bad actors: even though it's not the solution we've ended up with (i.e. training spam models, creating rulesets, sharing blacklists etc), this problem space always makes me think of Microsoft's 'Penny Black':

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penny_Black_(research_project)

There are further economic problem there; people won't want to pay anything for email, for example, now that they're accustomed to having it for free.

But if sending a message came at the cost of a few smartphone GPU cycles -- or some other widely accessible but difficult-to-hoard resource -- and as long as it didn't affect a person's mental perception of their bank balance -- perhaps there'd be opportunities for something like Penny Black again.
I haven’t tried 1password, I have been using LastPass, would you recommend I switch?
Or, why don't a 3rd party provide this, and provide a website isthislegit.com/THERANDOMID (typing or API or QR) that returns red or green? Hey, startup idea!
This comment sparked my interest and I looked into it, ended up disabling js by default on my browser! Thanks for the tip.

No, Hermitian matrices can be over p-adics too. You just need an inner product so you can define a matrix to be self-adjoint, and you can define that inner product over p-adics. And the result is kind of funny, because although the statement of the result doesn't make any reference to complex numbers nor to adjoints, the proofs do. I do wonder if the result is still valid over other fields.

There are other notations for the Hermitian transpose, such as the dagger or the H. The asterisk is particularly physicist, I think.

And you might have studied physicist-accented mathematics; a lot of the accent often carries over into PDEs, functional analysis and related fields.

The \equiv usage is in D \equiv diag(...)

You can do that without transactions with a lock cmpxchg16b instruction, or with a more complicated algorithm like this:

Lets put it this way - we should probably be using the term long term thinker instead of short term thinker from a compression standpoint

The ones getting shat on for taking student loans are long term thinkers relatively speaking - and also illustrate that it doesn't always work out.

CITYSPEAK (from Bladerunner)

Sushi Master: Nani ni shimasho ka. [Japanese: "What would you like to have?"]

Deckard: {Points} Give me four.

Sushi Master: Futatsu de jubun desu yo. [Japanese: "Two is enough!"]

Deckard: No. Four. Two, two, four.

Sushi Master: Futatsu de jubun desu yo. [Japanese: "Two is enough!"]

Deckard: {Resignedly} And noodles.

Sushi Master: Wakatte kudasai yo. [Japanese: "Please understand!" (Actually implying sarcastically, "Can't you understand?")

Policeman: Hey, idi-wa. [Korean: "Hey, come here."]

Gaff: Monsieur, azonnal kövessen engem bitte. [French-Hungarian-German: "Sir, follow me immediately please!" "azonnal" - means immediately; "kövessen" means follow imperative; "engem" - means me. And of course "Monsieur" is French for Sir and "bitte" is German for please.)]

Sushi Master: He say you under arrest, Mr. Deckard.

Deckard: You got the wrong guy, pal.

Gaff: Lófaszt, nehogy már. Te vagy a Blade ... Blade Runner. [Hungarian: "Horsedick, no way! You are the Blade ... Blade Runner."

Sushi Master: He say you 'Brade Runner'.

Deckard: Tell him I'm eating.

Gaff: Captain Bryant toka. Me ni omae yo. [Japanese: "Captain Bryant wants to see your mug in front of his immediately!" (This is a loose translation. "Me ni omae yo" is a sort of pun. "Me ni mae" means to meet someone. "omae" is
the very informal use of "you" - in Japanese, this is significant. "yo")

Deckard (V/O): The charmer's name was Gaff, I'd seen him around. Bryant must have upped him to the Blade Runner unit. That gibberish he talked was city speak, gutter talk. A mishmash of Japanese, Spanish, German, what have you. I didn't really need a translator, I knew the lingo, every good cop did. But I wasn't going to make it easier for him.
>even I get concerned with the green movements when they seem to be coming for each part of my life I hold sacred-- a nice warm shower (or two!) is a highlight of my day.

How is this article an example of "coming for each part of your life" you hold sacred? Did they state, or even imply, anywhere in the article that they were going to go around and force people to be environmentally conscious?
I was with you until the 'extremely hard to use in the dark or with night vision' because that is just about the only time they work much better than paper ones.

But maps of all sorts are a dying breed, the bulk of the uses for maps were to find directions and turn-by-turn voice navigation has made the map component pretty much optional.
At the smaller level of things I see similar bets in what Earnest Capital and Tiny Seed are doing: non-controlling amount of investment in a profitable company to make a return higher than standard but with a less crazed risk profile than traditional venture capital.
Note that this comes out of a group at EPFL, a university known for cryptography research.

Can anyone explain how they're achieving comparable performance to C++ using Go, for someone who has never programmed in Go?
What if someone is perfectly happy to drive for $1 less than the union negotiated? Why would you use the force of government, police with guns, to keep them from selling their labor a dollar cheaper. Especially when they’re perfectly happy to do so?
> It takes roughly 10kw to provide a decent instant hot water shower.

Electricity is currently about 12¢/kwh, or 1¢/5kwm. If I'm doing the math right, that means that a 10-kwm shower costs all of tuppence. That's a small percentage even for folks in the world living on a couple dollars a day — it's basically free for those of us in the Western world.

Did I get the math right?

Some businesses that are already in the business of selling home loans (banks) offer more flexible home loans to their employees, subject to conditions...

Anecdotally, this seems to be of interest to some younger employees who want to get a mortgage but don't have enough saved for standard home loan.

This is arguably win-win : an employee who wants to get a home loan is able to do so earlier in career with less cash saved (although likely at cost of a somewhat expensive loan), the bank is able to sell a loan at a relatively high rate to an eligible employee but with reduced risk from having a lot more inside information about the employee's source of income from salary & job security.

But I am not sure if any of these employees knew about this perk before accepting a job offer to work at the bank!
London buildings are washed about once a century when the grime gets unbearable. Otherwise we rely on it raining often enough.
Not in this country[0], no. If you allow a company to set the floor for their market with sub-living wages, then all other companies need to either match the low wages to stay competitive or they'll eventually fail or be taken over.

On a slightly broader scale, I don't see any mechanism by which markets self-regulate to police unethical behavior. All I see is the opposite, companies rebranding when their image gets tarnished and hiring PR firms to lie to people but they don't actually stop behaving unethically. Even in rare cases when they get fined, oftentimes the fines are less than the profit they made from the specific actions they were fined for.

[0] Global issues, trade, outsourcing, etc are a far bigger discussion.
Automating Machine Learning for Mobile Games
I'm not. The person I'm replying to said, "industrial and agricultural ... pollution [is] massive compared to anything a modern city dweller does on a daily basis." Many people use this premise as an excuse to avoid making changes in their own lives. However, my point is that it is a false premise. Industrial pollution is actually not massive compared to individual pollution.
Notifications:

So if I have a couple of PCs idling, do they show ads? If ads are shown then there is a waste that someone is paying, and publishers will complain.

Can I set 10 raspberry pi to start farming BAT?

At this point Brave should start tracking what the user is doing to see if it is convenient to show an ad and that's is where all the problems start again... user/behavior monitoring.

Is just a bad but noble idea followed by a terrible implementation. Just let it pass by...
