Apple TV and VLC works exactly like that, I use it all the time.

1) I copy some URL on my phone or computer

2) I open the VLC app on my Apple TV and select the URL field

3) My phone buzzes because it recognizes an input field

4) I paste the url and press play

The nice part is that you can also use that to watch Acestream content if you run some Acestream container on your NAS / Computer exposed via a http proxy and just paste that URL into VLC on the TV.
I think the idea is that full-blown alcoholism is what really destroys your body. That being said, the link is definitely inconclusive - this is the article I always think of when thinking about alcohol [1].

And assuming the protocol can cope with changing source ports. I’ve seem some udp protocols that only work if the source port is not translated.
Quite frankly, I think the post should get downvoted more. It's not an opinion, it's a fact that those apps are NOT necessary for the phone's functionality. The user even mentions that the apps are a 'want' to some users, not a need.

What makes the bloatware annoying is that they cannot be fully uninstalled, only disabled. I'm one of the users who disabled these google apps and it annoys me that I cannot remove them.
It has analog at macro-scale: it's a particle surrounded by a wave. Double split experiment is reproduced in macro almost decade ago!
am I ridiculing having a good time? If I'm not drinking at a bar every night I'm boring? Sounds like a Budweiser ad to me...

I'm simply saying there's a real opportunity cost which is directly in context with the comment I'm replying to. Sorry you interpreted it differently.

Simply put, if you're out drinking, you're not in the gym or doing another activity that has more health benefits. Don't let that stop you from 'having a good time', but it's something to keep in mind when we talk about the health effects of having a couple drinks everyday.
Both of my links very specifically look at adherence rates.

> Results: Dietary adherence remained high throughout the controlled food intake phase (days adherent: 86%) and the self-selected food intake phase (days adherent: 89%).

And:

> For both groups, moderate intensity, intermittent exercise showed excellent adherence and this may be a useful model for future research studies.

So I'm not sure, having read both links, you came to the conclusion that it "doesn't prove my claims." They both very directly do.
A deeply nested comment like that would not be so flagged by multiple users in a couple of minutes, especially on an article that garnered a total of 54 points and 70 comments. Not enough eyeballs to do that.

You call it a personal attack--I call it a logical observation: one who advocates authoritarianism is a tyrant. Of course, authoritarian tyrants don't like to be called so. "Hurtful" and "problematic" opinions must be shamed.

HN ought to be concerned with the proliferation of authoritarianism rather than calling it out. Oppression flourishes where honest criticism is not allowed. "Democracy dies in darkness," right?
Do you mean "developer" or "designer"? Dreamweaver wasn't a hobbyist's tool; it was priced like enterprise software, and had a ton of advanced functionality that really only web designers would have used.

It's quite a bit different from paying $10/mo for Squarespace.
Yes, them keeping Python 2 alive for 10 years where Python 3 was developed caused a lot of issues, it would be extremely short sighted to allow third (incompatible) python into the mix.
A great deal of (19th century) thermodynamics has its roots in the desire to engineer better steam engines. Entropy as an example has been introduced as an abstract concept to get to engines with better efficiency. Even when statistical thermodynamics was suggested (which makes of a less abstract and more intuitive understanding of thermodynamics) it was strongly opposed by many of the pundits at that time.
My dad found himself with a useless MBA in the 80's recession, so retrained as a programmer after I'd already decided that's what I wanted to be when I grew up (not the last time he would steal an idea from me and run with it).

When I was in highschool the fervor over so-called 4th Generation Languages was kicking up and he worried the career might be going away. I wasn't that worried, and I can't recall entirely why I wasn't.

Today I'd say that they will always need mechanics for the robots, but in fact the situation is not even that dire. AI, which I still believe will fail all over again, replaces less than half the code we write - it deals with the decision whether to do something, but not how to accomplish it. And we already know that we're fucking up data management pretty badly. If 40% of my job went away at the wave of a wand (nothing is ever that simple, and it takes a painfully long time to migrate to new systems), we'd have more time to invest in the provenance of data and protecting it once we have it. I'd still be overbooked and our customers would be a little less salty.
What about OCR'ing (or extracting from an electronic PDF) your bank statement each month and then parsing the data into your desired format? You could add tags, metadata, etc. as well.

I'm thinking of something where you download your statement (usually available in PDF form) and then drag it to a web interface where it then gets OCR'd and processed.

A bit more manual, but the upside is you're not leaking your creds and you should also have access to more data (banks have to provide statements and they usual provide them going back many years).
I'm a maintainer for a somewhat popular Python package that had support all the way back to 2.4, but I've had to systematically remove support for those versions. The problem is all the CI infrastructure and testing packages are removing support.

Is Amazon planning to support pytest for at least 4 years? It will have its last 2.7-supporting release very soon.

The intermittent connectivity problem might be the result of a chatty network. mDNS is really sensitive to this and clients don’t wait very long before deciding that they got all the responses from devices.

If you stick your Chromecast and your phone in their own broadcast domain I think the problem would disappear. Unfortunately it’s not a solution to whatever is spamming your network but it would tell you that that’s the problem.
Well, but if all you cared about was the design and not the code, then those tools were very useful. Sometimes i use Adobe PageMill (which is essentially a rich text editor ala WordPad that saves in HTML and has a sidebar with a file browser) to create very simple sites (e.g. [0]). I do not really care about what the code looks like since i'm not going to edit it by hand anyway (though FWIW i find it very readable).

Many years ago i worked at a company where i had to edit PHP files edited in DreamWeaver by someone who had no idea about PHP, programming or even HTML (they'd design and write the text for the pages, i'd supply some code). The only issue i remember having was a couple of times making DreamWeaver unable to open the page, but that was fixed quickly.

Honestly personally i'm a big fan of WYSIWYG applications and i really see it as a big step backwards how many things nowadays rely on (often several) preprocessing steps of codes like Markdown, RST or adhoc syntaxes. I understand that it is much simpler and easier to implement this way and i do it myself too, but i do not pretend that this is somehow easier for the end user or it has better usability (and especially grinds my gears when someone tries to convince me otherwise by using edge cases that only happen at 0.1% of the time, if at all, when actually writing/editing the content is what you'd do 99.9% of the time).

Exactly. Personally I don't like drinking. I see the fun of getting drunk with friends and all..experienced it in my college years...but I don't like the unspoken pressure/expectation that you have to be on something to have a good time.
> TL;DR it's my personal site and I'll do what I want with it. It's for fun.

That's great and I hope you keep on doing that. That said I have a few comments on your actual implementation.

> If you clone my blog[1] (with submodules) you should be able to host it exactly as-is from the repo.

Who would want to do that? Somebody interested in running your website is probably somebody also willing to install and run a build tool. And even if not, if it's just about consuming the contents of your website without visiting your website, the Markdown in your git repository is accessible enough.

> Second, I wanted user interactions within my site to be very fast[3].

A noble goal, however the initial load time from a cold browser session was consistently between 3s and 4s for me. Probably because you got hit by HN, but looking at the network tab reveals why a statically generated page would've been way faster: Instead of loading 19 resources, you could've simply loaded 3 (HTML, CSS + Favicon). That'd have been significantly smaller and faster.

> After the initial load, subsequent navigations are much faster (and consistent) than retrieving a new static HTML page.

As already mentioned your initial page load would've been significantly faster with a statically generated page. What you do is optimize for subsequent page loads at the cost of the initial page load. I can only speak from my own experience, but I also believe this is true for most of the HN crowd: I usually end up on websites like yours, because somebody links to a specific article on it. I then read such an article and close the website right afterware. It's very rare that I look around what other content is available on such a website. So I don't know how your usual website visitors behave, but I'd assume visitors which actually visit more than 3-4 articles on your page a probably relatively rare and for such a few pages the sum of loading times would be shorter than your premature optimization.

However if you want to optimize for subsequent page loads I suggest you do so without compromising your initial page load and completely without JavaScript by utilizing link prefetching [1] which is supported by all major browsers [2] except Safari.

You can have sex without getting STDs - either by sticking with one/few monogamous relationships, or just using protection.

On the other hand, sex has been found to have lots of benefits (I'm at work so I don't want to be looking up citations, but intuitively a few minutes of cardio can't be a bad thing).
> having a healthy diet score in the top 40% of people in the study

Correlation does not equal causation. It's obvious from this statement that the relationship is not (necessarily) causal. Yeah "top 10% of the people in study live longer" isn't really revolutionary.
I had some bad luck with this one. SQA StackExchange suggested re-posting my question to DSP, and DSP suggested reposting my question to SQA.
Hacker News helps a large group of like-minded people to collectively find and curate best content to consume. It combines algorithmic and human approach in a unique way. Somewhat surprisingly, this model was rarely replicated elsewhere.

Perhaps more curation and digest solutions will be soon built for large chat networks on Discord, Slack, and Telegram. I haven't seen any good curation and digest solutions for those networks yet.
Can't just you just...not connect it to the internet?

That's what I do (my Apple TV is connected to the internet). A nice side effect is that you don't get ads in the TV's home screen that way.
Perhaps we should look toward legalization of prostitution to provide an alternative source of motivation for these young men to re-join the workforce.
Are you still putting on that workshop?
I think you're right. Dell actually has a few "conference room monitors", which come close. There is a 55 inch version for $850, and a 70 inch version for $3,000. I've considered the 55 inch version, but it is just a bit small for the room I watch TV in, and I'm not sure I'm willing to shell out 3 grand for a living room TV.
A screen should be dumb, though I should be able to attach something smart. TVs are trying to be what they are not.
We will have to disagree on the point I guess. To me it's just a typical barrier that both tech people and attorneys throw up to keep out newbies and/or make it more difficult for them. And it's also somewhat (for lack of a better way to put it ) 'snotty' you could say.

And there is a wide divide between people that might invest in startups (someone's uncle or mother) vs. 'the general public' (ie 'watches family feud').

Also to your exact point I am sure there are vastly more people that would be able to understand what was meant by 'a bug that you can exploit' vs. 'spectral signatures'.

I am thinking that someone pitching investors and using what amounts to (or appears to be) an invented or recently invented way of referring to a concept would not have a good reception either.

Indeed, that is a big impediment in many disciplines. Non-perturbative QCD (i.e. what describes the mass around you) can not be calculated analytically with a controlled level of precision. The best we can do is lattice QCD, i.e. the brute force approach. That's a big difference to QED, where we know how to find better and better approximations in a systematic way.

In other words, QCD, like many complex systems, shows emergent behavior not easy to predict from the theory input (couplings, masses). A better mathematical framework to attack these kind of problems would be a substantial jump forward.
It's not optimism, it's arithmetic: Tesla is stealing units from the other car companies. The other car companies require those unit sales to keep the prices the where they are otherwise they have to raise prices (same goes for insurance).

Sure maybe for the next 2-5 years people will do business as normal but are you really going to buy a Corolla for $30K when you can get a Tesla Model 3 for $30K? That is what will cause a quick shift.
Maybe I wasn't clear. I'm optimizing the performance for first time users, specifically when it comes to navigation.

I agree with you, but given the current culture the most likely outcome here is continued grinding hopelessness of men in Western society. Women may fare better briefly for one or two generations by moving into and evicting men from the remaining roles, but within another few generations automation will put both men and women back into the home. However, not as a family unit, but as wards of the state.
Look up "hormesis". As they say, the dose makes the poison, and for a lot of "bad" things, small amounts are actually beneficial.

(Incredibly to me, even small doses of radiation can be protective against larger doses later.)
People always explain the existence of bonus culture through the firm's ability to manage comp downward in hard times. I'm not so sure though - I've been through hard times at a hedge fund. One year my bonus froze at the previous year's value, and another year the more senior people took a 10% hit to their bonus.

I honestly think bonus culture is about power - specifically the power you're describing there. Your boss's boss can ask you to come in at 2am because if you don't, you risk taking a massive hit to your comp.

The other reason - also related to what you're pointing out - is that if you quit six months into the year, you leave a significant chunk of money on the table. Silicon Valley has similar golden handcuffs in that regard though.

I have an A1 and have logged it's network requests all day for fun. There's absolutely nothing remotely resembling "spyware". Compared to prolific unremovable bloat than many premium phones have it's an excellent phone. Ended up buying another for safekeeping if something ever goes wrong with it.

Android One, monthly security updates, official bootlock unloader, some of the best LineageOS support around. Compared to nearly everything else on the market (besides Pixels or Nokias) it's an absolute joy to actually have control over my phone.
There is no '--std=C++14-with-arbitrary-things-from-c++20' flag either, which is what this fork does. We can discuss whether breaking backwards compatibility was bad or necessary, but creating another fork of Python that backports some features of Python 3 is just adding confusion. If their primary purpose is supporting Python 2.7 applications, they can do just fine without calling it Python.
Re: "A simpler and more stable development framework. Keeping up with JS and CSS frameworks (many of which exist precisely because pure JS and CSS are pretty painful to use if you want to develop a desktop-like application) is hard even for people who use them professionally. There's no way you can ask business people to keep up with that. A more stable framework, that hides the fact that browsers were never meant for application development well enough (even if that means less flexibility) could go a long way towards making things easier."

Indeed! We need a GUI/desktop-oriented markup standard for in-house and custom CRUD. It's a big market that shouldn't ignored at the expense of other markets (such as sales-oriented websites).

All the companies who want a chunk of Microsoft's business should get together and help define such a standard. Google, IBM, Oracle, Amazon, Apple, do you hear that? The MS pie is waiting to be sliced up for YOUR benefit. Get on it!
I find the biggest barrier to doing anything like this is the laziness itself. Thinking clearly about the choices I'm (not) making, and the trade offs I'm choosing helps me decide what I'd prefer to do. Reminding myself that activity makes me feel much better helps a lot too.

I hate gyms as well (I see them as a necessary evil these days). Personally I grab my bike and go mountain biking a lot. Not HIIT per-se, but very spikey bursts of effort.

You could accomplish some high quality interval work with a simple road bike (a hill helps) and a good attitude. The benefit to this being far less impact compared to sprints.

Just be a little careful starting with high intensity stuff - you want to slowly ramp this up over a handful of weeks or more. True high intensity work with insufficient muscle conditioning is a quick way to get injured (think ham/glute/calf pulls, tears, etc), and you do need to be careful when ramping up the cardio side - heart issues aren't fun.
I'm using DD-WRT at home. I understand that the embedded Linux that it runs can become more of a full featured version by adding and properly formatting a hard drive to the router. I haven't been able to do this yet and I think it would be great if there were an image available that could be written to the disk for this purpose.

I think we’ve already been moving closer and closer to “no code” simply through the evolution of programming languages and tools, much more than we have through the advancement of specific “no code” frameworks.

Programming languages are becoming higher and higher level. Abstracting more and more boilerplate and plumbing. Then you have frameworks specifically designed to fill that role, and package repositories, further reducing the amount of code you have to write.

The outcomes are that:

1) Your source code has a much higher ratio of business logic to everything else

2) Your business logic is expressed in less lines of code, and in ways that are increasingly becoming more similar to their natural language representation

We haven’t reached “no code”, but we are currently at “much less code”, and a lot of projects can be achieved with “very little code at all”.
