It was very clean and impressive work, but the longer I watched the more I realized how disconnected I feel from all these weird "apps".

- Music player without connection to the real world (spotify/youtube)

- Notes app without connection to the real world (the file system/other platforms)

- Messages app without connection to the real world (sms / messenger / whatsapp / etc etc)

- Photos app without connection to the real world (some kind of cloud synced file system)

- Notifications ... I really still have not found a use for them, except for IM on my phone

Stop bundling these things :( It looks nice, but the real world use is so limited. Focus on really enabling other stuff instead

KetoBoost
Besides, BHB salts as far as anyone knows control hunger yearnings. Taking this enhancement causes you to feel less ravenous. This is extraordinary for individuals who have recently been over-eaters and are utilizing ketosis to get more fit in a controlled manner. To Keto Boost's favorable position, it comes in pill structure rather than a powder that you need to blend into a beverage. This makes it a lot simpler to swallow. On the off chance that you don't care for the taste, it's gone with one swallow. Fortunately, it doesn't have a horribly dreadful flavor like some other ketogenic beverages and enhancements we've tried. The flavor of Keto Boost despite everything isn't great. Notwithstanding, it is significantly more fair than some different alternatives in the market. We figure much more individuals will need to rapidly swallow a tablet instead of a whole foul-tasting drink!

I travel a lot. I've had so many bad experiences with AirBnB. Despite their high fees, it's almost impossible to get their customer support to read any kind of complaint and give an apropos response. Their responses are usually non-sequitur: they don't give an on-topic response to the issue.

I switched to just using Bonvoy/Marriott and staying in hotels. Now I have a high status level (titanium), and they really do anything they can to make me happy. And actually, there is much rarely any issue for me to complain about: mostly they just get things right in the first place. And with high status, they give me room upgrades, free breakfast, late checkout, free nights and points.

Now I only use AirBnB for stays of a month or more.
Are you using MathJax to display the equations? Why do I not get the MathJax context menu when I right-click on the equations?
It was obvious at the time. G1 used a hw keyboard because Android was under incredible pressure to ship to meet the iPhone head on, but it had been originally designed for a Blackberry form factor. When the decision was made to switch to a full screen smartphone form factor there wasn't enough resourcing or time to develop a soft keyboard (which is a somewhat complex project), so they went with HW. It was just a scheduling and prioritisation issue.

This is wrong, and has in fact always been wrong (even in the old system you could use a bank acc number, an address and a name to take money from an account). You can take money out of bank accounts with just IBAN and a name (though even the requirement for a name is spurious). Of course there are legal repercussions and usually the bank refunds your money - but that's when it is already too late.

The banking system you are talking about is built entirely on trust.
For Swift to be taken seriously, it needs to be actually usable across macOS, GNU/Linux and Windows, and not be something that still resembles the heyday of GNUStep experience.
Spectrometers have always fascinated me, our ability to understand and build tools capable of analysis right down to atoms/particles level.

I've been meaning to read up on how mass spectrometers and others work at the detailed level. Just their ability to tell so much about various materials and chemical compositions through automated mechanics and analysis. Being able to remotely do it via a laser + high speed camera sounds like a massive capability boost for planetary missions.

Sounds like a fun engineering job to develop them on the cutting edge.

> The Mars 2020 rover marks the third time this particular microphone design will go to the Red Planet, Maurice said. In the late 1990s, the same design rode aboard the Mars Polar Lander, which crashed on the surface. In 2008, the Phoenix mission experienced electronics issues that prevented the microphone from being used.

This is one big downside to working on space missions that I wouldn't miss. It must have been heartbreaking to the developers having both the 1998 Mars Polar lander crash with all of that equipment then having the same one fail nearly a decade later. Hopefully everything goes well in the 2020 mission.
Judging by my previous managers way of describing things ("give me if x then y"), many people understand the relational model on a basic level, but can't think in sets when describing the output they are looking for ("give me x where Y"). While you can get "if" statemnts in SQL, it's not the way you should be thinkng when doing any sort of non-trivial query.

Well it is not dead, but with the rise of Webapps (not Websites!) come use-cases you can only handle with SPAs. One major example is the new youtube feature, where the video playback is not interrupted when you click on a link somewhere (the video stays at the right bottom corner of the page and keeps plaing). No way to do this with SSR.

Other examples include staying in fullscreen mode (think automatic playback of video playlists) - with SSR, every video change would trigger a page reload and thus require user interaction to go back to fullscreen.

SPAs are not required for Websites, but for Webapps there are a lot of cases where SSR is not possible or would result in poor UX.
Android could and did handle all kinds of handsets. It wasn't Android that took the industry in the iPhone form factor, it was the OEMs. People tend to think Android had way more power over the mobile industry than it actually did back then. Android got all kinds of dumb stuff put in it because a major carrier or OEM i.e. customer wanted it there.

That also constrained Android's innovation significantly. Some people say Android copied iOS, which is only partly true, and of course iOS has also copied Android over time. But when I was at Google I did encounter quite a few stories of cases where the Android team came up with something really clever and it was shot down by carriers and OEMs who said "we want what the iPhone does". They had no vision at all.

In fairness to carriers though, T-Mobile's QA effort on the G1/G2 were pretty intense. At the time Android's QA was near non-existent and the carrier testing procedure found tons of bugs.

As well it shouldn't. Proprietary software is trash and should be thrown out. Nix supports unfree software, and has many tools for torturing unfree packages until they yield the desired binaries and filesystem layout; if you want your particular unfree software to be well-supported in nixpkgs, then roll up your sleeves and make the contribution that you want to see.

Yeah, the most interesting part of the article for me was the end: the discussion on the best strategy for increasing the amount of ethical consumption that is going on. It took a while to get to that point, but I'm sure there's lots of interesting things Hacker News could say about that.

My personal strategy so far has been to encourage some ethical consumerism by example, not because that directly increases the share of ethical consumption significantly, but because I think that attaching ethical considerations to an action as common as consumption will, down the line, also encourage people to vote in line with that. In the end, it currently seems to me like regulation is a required part of upping our collective standards and impact.
How to Die on Mars
MediaWiki (the actual Wikipedia website) runs on top of a traditional SQL database (originally just MySQL, but others are now supported too):

https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Installation_guide

There have been various forays into Semantic Web technologies. Previously people have done things like parse the infoboxes on Wikipedia pages and then import that into a triple store.

It seems that now the Wikimedia Foundation is finally interested in moving in this direction. But the software isn't there yet, certainly not at the scale Wikipedia needs.
I've experienced free bus travel twice. Once in Dublin where instead of going on strike the drivers decided just not collect fares for one day.

Another time in Spain where they had a free public transport day based on some kind of green agenda.

In both cases the result was the same - absolute chaos.
(Too late to edit, but:) Another thought is that while job security in any given job is often lower (a lot of blue collar work is casual or short fixed term contracts), job security in the sense of knowing you'll have a job six months from now is arguably higher. Blue collar work is far more fungible than knowledge work, but that increases job mobility more than it increases replaceability because replacing a good employee is always a pain. The net result is more freedom to move jobs if you find yourself in an unpleasant environment.
So Jevons paradox is garbage, it's neither true nor is there evidence it would be applicable here even if it was true.

Moving on.... you're playing with words, they are talking about specific flights.

At to a global level it might be a 15% reduction or maybe 18% for these specific flight routes. But they make no claim to know that figure. It's hard to know. They just are presenting facts.

And for the 2% or 5% or whatever difference to the 20%, that's people making flights that couldn't before. That's people exploring the world. That has amazing value as well. It's not just 'less than 20%'

Appeals to Consequences
America, the land of opportunity and innovation!
Yeah coffee is one of the rare items I'd be a stickler for buying a specific brand name. I do remember seeing a bunch of K-cup inventory as well. Looking at Costco.com, they want around $15 for a two pound bag of Peets whatever. I can go to any of the grocery stores around here and pick up the same thing for the same price (or around $12 when they rotate it through a sale price which Safeway seems to do regularly). Looking at Costco.com the Kirkland stuff is cheaper (no way to filter by whole bean / ground though).

I just though of something else about the dutch ovens. Costo.com also lists a Lodge enameled dutch oven for $58. It's the shape (round) I was looking for and about the right size. I passed because I was looking for a made in not-PRC one. Amazon carries the same Lodge one for only wants $60 though. I ended up with the Williams-Sonoma house brand one (made in France by Staub) for less than Costco wanted for their similarly sized Le Creuset one.

I've heard good things about the print lab, pharmacy, and optometrists but have never used them. The Costco prices on vaccines compare favorably to the normal prices of the city/county run SF clinic, but not by a whole lot. The state of California subsidizes some vaccines for low income folks though. At $26 those are cheaper than what Costco charges (except for the flu vaccine).

Spend less time trying to mimic fake-perfect lives on social media. It’s not healthy. Instead, find out what’s important to your happiness and work on that. Money should be a means to that end, not the end in itself.

Hell, you don’t even need to be rich to go to nice places. My uncle is a great example of someone who optimises for happiness: he earns very little but does a job he loves, he brutally cuts out expenses from his life for things he doesn’t care about and loves quite cheap, but instead he spends the money he does have to go on an island holiday once a year and to visit his family (especially his grandchildren) multiple times a year. It’s all about perspective on what’s important to you. Money shouldn’t be it outside of enabling you. (Obviously you need enough to pay your bills, take care of your health etc)
You have the right idea, but you'll be waiting for a long time. Nix is transitional, and a version of Nix which appropriately enforces package-capability discipline likely will not give a traditional Linux/BSD userland. Instead, use Nix today, and shape its future; Nix is currently on version 2.

As a "fullstack" i disagree with this view.

This is the "if all you have is a hammer, everything looks like a nail" kind of view.

What i believe is, the complexity of developing software has been increasing and we have a lot of pressure specially due to time constraints that we are always reinventing the wheel in order to meet deadlines and try to make things easier.

And the result is always the same: bloat.
The quiet moments before a bone-rattling bull ride
There have been several issues over time. My general problem with it was complexity. What finally broke the camel's back for me was that for unexplained reasons, sssd stayed in "offline mode" after system standby for 30-60 seconds. We could validate that the network connection was back up after max. 5 seconds, but there was no way to get this thing to go online again. So basically we had to tell our users that they won't be able to login after system standby for a minute or so.

This was impossible to debug. You could send some signal (USR1 or 2 iirc) to sssd to force it into online mode, we even tried a crude script that would run after system resume and spam sssd with that signal for a minute to no avail. Shortly after I left that department the decision was made to move to Centrify. It's a pita in other ways apparently, but everything I know about it is just from hearsay from old colleagues aynways.
I don't disagree with your analysis, but my (semi-serious) point was rather that most good SAs could do both, and that there might be a pay differential between SA and SRE as SRE is more popular currently.
I can't help but feel the person pushing for the idea has something to gain personally from one of the most well-known website out there actually using blockchain for... "something", whatever that something is.

And that makes the whole exchange pretty surreal.
Exactly - you need to decouple efficiency of mode, from amount of transport done in that mode if you want to make sensible decisions about which mode is best.

Or put it another way - if all that cargo going by sea went by air C02 emissions would be 100x more.

Obviously saying sea travel is massively more efficient doesn't obviate the need to reduce that as well.

There is nothing wrong with fly-by-wire and full authority controls as long as it is done correctly, it can even be more reliable than traditional mechanisms.

The way these things are made reliable is by redundancy and formal testing. The Boeing 737 Max MCAS had neither: it relied on a single angle of attack sensor and the software wasn't certified up to the appropriate level. The big mistake was that they gave the system more authority than what it was originally designed for, without an appropriate requalification.
