Thanks! The Dell is big and requires an external power supply, which is a no-go. The Cable Matters is better, but only does USB 2.0, which means I can't use it for hard drives. There's an HDMI version, but doesn't do 60Hz.

This is what I'm fighting right now. Lots of hubs, they all do some things right, but not everything. The reason is apparently answered by the first article ("any USB-C hub using this technique for 4K60 video can’t have any USB 3.1 ports on it").

I've yet to find a sub-$100 Thunderbolt dock. Monoprice had a sale on docks in December, bringing the price down to $56, but I was too slow to pull the trigger.

It is also relevant if you're in an African village, or any other place that has bad/slow internet and children in school can't visit typical websites because they want a fancy separate connection with each of their devices.
Why would unit “sales numbers” matter as far as stock price? They report revenue and overall profit.

The Apple Watch is already a larger revenue generator than the iPod ever was. AirPods are either thought to be larger or soon will be.

Org is a lot more than just outlining, etc. Do any of those tools have literate programming, tons of export backends, GTD, Agenda management, etc?
Who is going to decide if they're making "enough" revenue or profit? A company simply being large does not make it a monopoly. We already have laws against monopolies that fo mostly unenforced.

You are entitled to have your own opinion, not to the facts.
This is so necessary! However, it still doesn't answer a burning question that I have: are there any USB-C hubs that can draw power from an upstream power delivery source and supply it to downstream USB-A devices?

Just to be clear, I don't expect you to have this answer. From what I can tell, the answer is "no that doesn't exist".

Article says: "At least on macOS, the size of apps & notifications is not adjustable. Toolbar symbols, Tab-bar in Chrome, native apps on MacOS are not scalable."

This is factually incorrect.

By not explaining that what scaling options were tried in the article, it strongly appears that the author did not try them.

By not explaining here on HN what was tried in more detail, it appears to be handwaving away the issue.

It's totally possible that a smaller screen is better for his productivity, but that's a minor argument compared to the incorrect assertion made in the article and here.

OK, so you were meaning casual Linux user not a casual computer user.

In my definition a casual user has his computer setup and managed by somebody else. Someone that helps the casual person to buy the laptop/PC that fits their budget and needs, that installs the browser and extensions for them, that installs the apps they need like Skype.Word installs the printer and other devices for them.

Someone that can installs Linux (usually you need to go in BIOS/UEFI to enable boot order and disable secure boot and other shit) is not a casual in my opinion.

Do you think that Ubuntu users are the casuals and Arch are the power users? I will disagree with that, I used Arch in the past but now I am happy with Kubuntu LTS just because a DE and OS is a launcher for my applications and not a identity.

About Ubuntu home page, I assume Canonical is not trying to target the casuals with that page, casuals can't just download and install Ubuntu on any random laptop or PC, there s also no money to be made.

The evidence is extremely weak that threat of punishment actually successfully deters crimes of opportunity: https://undark.org/2016/05/16/deterrence-punishments-dont-re...

Some premeditated crimes (e.g. first-degree murder, bribery) can be deterred by threat of punishment, but when people are making the snap-decision to commit a crime of opportunity, they aren't carefully weighing the risk vs reward.

Personally I think that Flutter is the future for cross-platform UI toolkits. As a React dev (in my spare time, I’m still a student), using RN was a pain due to the need to install native extensions for almost everything. The batteries-included approach of Flutter and just the polish around the dev workflow made it more attractive to a beginner mobile dev.
Actually the opposite. Had 737MAX gone the way of 777, there would have been no MCAS - but it would involve significant rework of control system, new avionics, and a lot of training.

The core difference is that even the original 777 is a Fly-By-Wire system with programmed behaviour, in fact it was a well known case study in building civilian safe FBW systems.

Because of that, there's no need to "patch over" differences like it was done with MCAS, as the minute adjustments can be done across the whole flight envelope protection system that is already there since first 777. In fact, 787 controls are derived from that and use software adjustment extensively in order to make control surface generate less drag yet still be usable.

The theater my wife and I usually go to is one of the Alamo Drafthouse theaters and they don't allow under-18s in unless they are accompanied by an adult. That helps a lot.

In theory Alamo is strict about talking and use of phone but in reality, quite a bit of it happens anyway. Still, audiences are a bit better behaved and I think it's because they are a bit older.
Needs to filter whether it can show HDMI 4K at 30Hz or 60Hz. And related to that, for video, it’s possible to have 2 4K 60hz through or one or none.

Also filter whether it’s one USB-C connects to computer or two USB-C connects to computer. With two USB-C connected to computer, can pass through more types of USB to accessories.

Finally, it doesn’t show matches that I know are matches.

There's another comment here which sums up my thoughts on this perfectly: "Don't make me think" has turned into "Don't let me think", and that is a disturbingly dangerous direction for freedom from corporate/government control.

Some people might prefer human readable databases. For example if your database is not too large, you could use it with Recutils and version control the database itself.

You can do this with SQLite but it would require CSV export:

You underestimate how hard it is to switch a field. If it takes $50k to switch I will get better margins but first I have to have $50k. Then how do I know that new thing I will do will bring that profit in first year? That is already $50k and lost profits for figuring out new market.

If you look at risks involved and potential loss of money instead of only looking at higher margins, it is easy to see why people would rather earn their 5%.
Great question. Been waiting since 2015 on those...

Depends on what you're doing... If you're working in descrete projects that need to be run, then archived.. using an RDBMS vs a service over SQLite is an actual consideration... if you have a remote API interface that talks to different SQLite db files on a per project basis, then backup and archival become trivial matters... if you're using a classic RDBMS then it can become much more complicated.

Aside, adjusting schema over time also becomes easier as archived projects don't need to be updated, they just continue to exist with the older schema.
Adding more salt to the food helps this path, but maybe I’ve just been too cynical and that day’s kitchen staff too heavy handed.

Make no mistake, new oppressive regimes will arise which make use of the internet as a tool of oppression. It is not without its costs and they are currently unmeasured as we have not seen the effect of children being exposed to this at such young ages as they currently are. What the internet is also doing is dissolving all culture that does not adhere to a central political set of goals. We also have no idea of the long term effects on our bodies so much concentrated RF radiation will have. 4G 5G WiFi ect. In medicine there are years of trials before a new substance or technology is deemed safe and that is only for use in hospital facilities. No one has been able to run long term tests to see what the effect of being constantly living in RF fields will be and children do not choose to be exposed to this RF radiation.

It seems to be a bug but for me personally Plasma is not the reason I use KDE, I love KWin and krunner and all the other applications. KWin the window manager is very configurable so I can do a lot of things with it, krunner I launch my apps with it without using the mouse, the file manager is configurable and good for my use cases, the text editor is also very decent for small and quick edits. On top of that GTK2 and GTK3 apps are integrated as much as possible.

Given the extensions that people compile into SQLite, I don't think one can even say that... there's mention of ActorDB in another thread that seems to cover this...

Wrapping a typical API in either GRPC or even over HTTP isn't too hard.. you take in a parameterized query with parameters using library X and return JSON stringified to that library... you may want more specific interfaces, or even GraphQL over the database for that matter... it really depends on your needs.
A head on crash is very different from an offset crash, which are supposedly much more common, and much more likely to cause injuries compared to a full head on crash where forces are (relatively) easier to be dissipated. When the IIHS started testing small-overlap crashes, many vehicles failed, receiving a score of "marginal" or "poor", including cars such as the c-class.

Later models of those cars were improved. But then a similar story happened when the IIHS started testing small overlap for passenger-side crashes, until again newer models were reinforced.

Often this is the case, and pi crops up plenty of other unexpected places, but counterexamples abound as well.

Pick any function defined on [0, 1], and replicate it along the real line at unit intervals. You can force a description of it using pi, but the most natural descriptions won't have any reference to it at all.

According to RFC 920:

"The domain system is a tree-structured global name space that has a few top level domains… While the initial domain name "ARPA" arises from the history of the development of this system and environment, in the future most of the top level names will be very general categories like "government", "education", or "commercial". The motivation is to provide an organization name that is free of undesirable semantics."

It's not the capacity of the A380 that airlines dislike; it's that operating a heavy, double-decker quad-jet is expensive. It's estimated that A380s have an hourly operating cost that is double (or more) that of a 777. Which isn't surprising, considering an empty A380 weighs in at about 280 tons. An empty 777-300 weighs in somewhere around 180 tons.
Yes, in theory.
And when you need to interact with other services in a disconnected way? You have to run them somewhere... and local should generally be an option, even if that's to a local single-node (mini)kube cluster.

There's nothing wrong with needing to run more than one thing while developing/testing and interacting. There are other options, but it's not a clearly bad approach.

That said, I would definitely lean towards Go or Rust myself if given the option (even though I have limited exposure to either) over Java. C#/.Net Core is in the middle imho. Even node works pretty well, but the tons of files thing bugs me sometimes. We're leveraging more node and C# where I work and I definitely prefer node... but for more services I do think that Go and Rust are probably better options.
That really depends on the minimal number of engines needed for safe operation.

Say that you need 50% of the engines on the plane to be able to fly safely, then having more engines is actually safer. For example, supposing that engine failures occur 1% of the time, with four engines there are 3.97 three and four engine failures per million flights. For a two engine plane, there are 100 two engine failures per million flights.
superp answer.
What you wrote has nothing to do with Eric's geometric antiproduct.

Eric calls the dual vectors in a geometric algebra (or Grassmann algebra as he calls it) antivectors. See his presentation from GDC2012 around the middle:

>Instead of saying (n−1)-vector, we call these “antivectors”

http://www.terathon.com/gdc12_lengyel.pdf (also: https://youtu.be/WZApQkDBr5o?t=1673)

So e.g. in 3D bivectors would be antivectors, in 4D trivectors would be antivectors, etc. He also calls what's usually referred to as pseudoscalars antiscalars - that is, n-vectors in an n-dimensional geometric algebra.

The geometric antiproduct introduced in this article has a similar dual relationship with the geometric product: the geometric antiproduct acts on vectors the same way as the geometric product acts on antivectors. Around the end of the article he even writes that the whole algebraic structure is invariant under dualization (or "antization" :D ): you can map scalars to antiscalars, vectors to antivectors, etc. and the geometric product will be mapped to the geometric antiproduct, etc.

There are other reasons I’ve moved here but that did play into why I moved my family away from cities. I don’t think it’s safe living near too many people. I prefer to know everyone I interact with in my life. That and I cannot stand the sound of traffic constantly. Additionally, there is more chance of dying in a car accident or in some sort of crime. Plus if there is a war, major cities will be the first targets. People who cluster together tend to assume everything is just going to work out and don’t think about possibilities of what could happen.
