One of those kits ended up being a growing up story of mine, and a lesson in unchecked hubris.

I was maybe 8-ish years old, and trying to follow the instructions to wire together a crystal radio with one of those Radio Shack electronics kits. My stepdad - who had only recently become such, and to my assumption at the time was just some dumb hick mechanic - volunteered to help me troubleshoot.

Being the bratty child I was, and being frustrated by my inability to figure it out even with the "easy" diagram (let alone actual schematics, which might as well have been hieroglyphs to me), I snapped back at him "I'm ten times smarter than you!" and stormed off.

Not 5 minutes later he calls me back in, triumphantly presenting a working crystal radio.

Turns out my "dumb hick mechanic" of a stepfather was actually once upon a time a technician for Nakamichi, and specialized in fixing their receivers. That little crystal radio was trivial compared to the sorts of circuits he used to repair for his day job.

That was 20 years ago and he still gives me shit for it, lol
Hah! I almost bought that board, but ended up going with another for built-in wifi. Asrock has been a really solid brand for me.

They say they're an FDIC member.

The FDIC says [1] Redneck bank is another name for All America Bank, which has been insured since December 22, 1969.

There are at least two populations that would like this, IMO: a hipster crowd who are not in any way like rednecks, and the country crowd who look like rednecks to outsiders and call themselves rednecks, but who insist, if you ask them about it, that they're being tongue-in-cheek about it. In my experience, the latter group is having more fun.

A lot of the bloat is derived from overarching platform features. A 1980's application had to live on its own and communicate mostly in printed English documents. Many of those early microcomputer apps were therefore glorified printer drivers with a bit of disk or tape I/O. Everything ASCII or with a regional code page - very simple. Then we added multitasking, networking, UTF localization, variable and multi-display support, multimedia, accessibility and so on. These features add value but as you say, raise expectations - and so create subtle additional costs. We built frameworks and standard APIs to deal with each thing as it came along. The platforms got bigger, much much bigger. And the hardware profiles have shifted as well. 64-bit support adds a lot of bloat for an application that doesn't need a huge address space.

Games are often immune to these things since the final runtime is mostly "viewing" and not "editing", so their requirements are more focused, but they also get hindered by platform abstractions. Only console games can even consider taking direct control over I/O; everyone else has to go through some kind of API, even if it's the operating system's lowest level API. There's all kinds of buffering and sandboxing in consumer operating systems that is OK for media playback, but not for interactivity. Games historically act as bellwether "killer apps" - soaking up resources to deliver basically the same kinds of experiences at ever-higher fidelity, which justifies purchasing higher end gear. Then the apps follow, making use of the new install base. Things that were products gradually turn into standardized features.

There is some kind of endpoint, or perhaps reset point, to all this - when the experience is already at peak fidelity, other forms of differentiation start to set in. New apps regularly appear as the "small minimalist alternative" to a old long-in-the-tooth standard. The new kid gets bigger to cover more users. Then it becomes the old standard, and the cycle repeats. With some products this is a very long cycle - Word and Photoshop are still viable. Others come and go. But it's basically true outside of software too. Nails and screws used to be extremely valuable and difficult to manufacture, and now they are simple components - their role changed from being the product to being the feature.
I don't think the current external Magic keyboard is really an improvement over the old wired aluminum keyboard, but it isn't terrible. The new laptop renditions fix the arrow key layout somewhat, so there is hope on that front.

Recently I've tried out a Matias laptop pro keyboard. A bit retro-clunky looking and heavy, but it has good key travel and isn't as loud as some other "mechanical" keyboards. Not bad for a Bluetooth Mac keyboard.

The same project. This version is a remake of the original version that the user had made two years ago. The full comment is clearer:

> About Project Glass:

> Glass is a simulated operating system user interface (UI) project and it is being made with Unity 2018.4. It is not a real OS, although everything in the package is functional and can be changed easily. This is basically a remake of the original project which was released 2 years ago. If you're wondering why I'm working on this project, you can search for Simulacra, Welcome to the Game or Emily is Away and you'll get the idea (plus it's fun). You can even count GTA for its phones and browser. This project is much much bigger than the examples though.

Cities have property crime.

Cities aren't static entities. New York (pre-Rudy) had major issues with property crime. San Francisco has a significant problem with property crime. I'm fairly unique in my social circle in that I've never had a car broke into, but it's hard to deny the amount of shattered glass on the sidewalks.

The problem comes from an influx of people that would rather sequester themselves in gated communities, have robots deliver everything, buy food at the automat, take their self-driving cars everywhere just to avoid human interaction. There's no motivation to improve the situation.

Of course the police response to Prop 47 (let's just give up!) is also hurting the situation.

I used, and for the most part, enjoyed brandless food products. Decent quality and fair prices ... then they started advertising too many non-food items that were very obviously cheap, low quality mass-produced in China items. I knew this was the beginning of the end for them. Iirc, a $8 “santoku” shaped knife at one point. Super cheap frying pans and kitchen tools with outrageous “mark downs“ ... a “pro blender” was:$180 now:$90. I stopped buying altogether and had not thought about them until this posting.
I thought the point of posting it to HN was about the comments, about the deep hostility to open source and sharing work/code that is prevalent in the game dev community.
I have a pattern that's working really well for us in the codebase, which I call `recover`.

Anywhere where you're tempted to crash because it's not possible, I add

recover debug_string debug_values return_value

Recover prints a stack trace, notifies Rollbar, and then continues with the return value. As a result, we see whatever is going wrong with the code, but the program doesn't crash on users. And since we're using OCaml (strongly typed), we end up having decent guarantees of safety.

Works pretty well for us.
For a company that cares so much about developers, they should have known better than to mess with the sacred cow that is Firefox.
I disagree, it means they prefer the content way more than the resolution. Like most people.
It’s still more than most people have and during a specific time in history. What you said doesn’t negate my point.

There’s more involved to starting a company than money. Such as your network. Your support system. Even your race and geographic location could play a factor. Luck, etc.

Understanding how async await is implemented in javascript (2018)
How to optimise front end apps? Don't use pure javascript based frontend. Do all normal crud apps on regular server side code. Eg. A normal rails CRUD app is much faster even with the intermediate page loads factored in, than a heavy react app with a spinner to make it appear fast. Want to give the feel of a JS app? Use turbolinks. Really want to use something fancy and dynamically update your content from the server? Use something like Phonix Liveview. I love VueJS and React. But these days I've switched to using Liveview so much that I don't miss them at all. The benefits are also huge. Near instant updates with very little server load (scalable) and ultra-light frontend. Win win win.
Probably there'll be an outbreak given the trade with China. Indeed there are probably undetected cases there already. Hopefully the fact that its hot sunny and fairly open will reduce the spread a bit. I think it's like flu in that it'll spread better in winter conditions.

This does exist and is fairly common, at least in retail, otherwise known as "White label products". Costco's Kirkland brand is a fantastic example of this, where they rebrand the same products such as a particular SKU of vodka under their own Kirkland brand.

A lot of in-house brands are just white labeled versions of a branded product. The rub is that not all are high-quality brands like Costco's

I am a great fan of SysInternals Suite since before they sold to Microsoft. I have been using TCPView since 2001 (or so)(just mentioning in case anyone who doesn't know the tools can find them useful). I also use Windows Firewall Control (WFC) a neat and cheap software that makes the Windows firewall management very easy. I know that FF on "idling" more has 4-5 open connections mainly to cloudfront, aws, akamai. Unfortunately FF prefers these CDN hosts over the true targets so I can't know more (and too lazy to use wireshark to find out).
I guess.

Maybe it's just satire about flashy but useless eye candy.

When you're running lots of VMs, you end up using as little RAM as possible. It used to bug the hell out of me that Whonix came with KDE. Now finally they switched to XFCE. My Debian VMs get 1-2GB, and some script-laden sites can freeze them.

SF dating is a shitshow from many perspectives.

Dating in SF is… interesting, especially if you're trying to do so within the confines of the tech community. Take a look at r/SFr4r (yikes). The tech community out here is also pretty damn small. Looking on HN, facebook, or reddit I'll still run into posts from folks I've gone out with or know professionally.

From attending devops days in Manhattan a couple years ago I'd say that the NYC tech community certainly seems more diverse than what I'm used to out here.

One of my favorite ways to think about recursion is that it's a shitty technique that can and will blow up your stack.

When I try to solve a problem with recursion, then I have two problems.

It's also a great way to filter out morons in interviews. If they ask for a recursive solution, and I tell them that it's a shitty solution, and if they don't immediately agree, then I know I'll be working with morons.
Luggage trunks have had a pair of wheels on one edge since forever.
I made another comment about this: this opinion is actually commonly held, and especially vocal, in the «hobby» game dev community. I have encountered similar hostility towards open source and sharing many times, e.g. on Unreal Engine forums, it is not a reddit thing.
> I just don't understand why people run windows.

Software that doesn't exist elsewhere (maybe OSX).
The challenge is to decide on the specification of what your function inputs and what it outputs. Get specification right, implement it as you describe (ignoring the task of your recursion goblins), and it'll work. Get the specification wrong, and the implementation will either be difficult or impossible.

It is helpful, of course, if someone else has defined a workable specification for you already.

To your anecdotes and the article's credit, yes, many minority groups (or approaching majority) do often use larger extended family units.

This is not to say that the the people who need help (from government or church) always have the option -- or that it doesn't have additional costs. (Though to several of the cases mentioned above, extended families are replacing a missing nuclear family member.)
I disagree. The modern (read:1800s) horizontal milling machine was really what enabled the industrial revolution. The kinds of parts you can make cheaply on a lathe is much less diverse than on a mill with proper tooling. Don't get me wrong, you need parts with circles but all the other shapes are what really enabled the industrial revolution. Mills and the complex shapes they can quickly create allowed us to cheaply crank out the tooling to make all sorts of things.

Other comments have mentioned some options that the released Newton had, but the Newton actually had network support during development; we just couldn't work out how to fit it in the package and make it affordable.

When I first joined the Newton team the hardware guys were testing a spread-spectrum network that supported roaming devices with automatic discovery and connection. At that point all the working Newton hardware was big clunky naked circuit boards, so they tested them by ribbon-cabling them to Macintosh SEs that they wheeled around on carts to go from one network to another.
Actually, I'm not a historian in this area, but it would be fascinating to know whether this kind of thing actually started in America, got exported after ww2 (like Japanese baseball), and then reimported with new/old takes from the likes of Japan post 80s and seemed weird to the now globalizing US corporate culture. (Like how 'do the needful' supposedly got imported into India during the days of the English empire, fell out of use in the modern English world, and is now being reimported from India).

I only bring it up as there are just so many parallels in American culture that would see corporate team building and identity type activities as a natural extension: prep rallies, cheer leaders, pledges, marching bands, frats, school songs, etc.

These activities have some parallels outside the US, but they're activities that can seem distinctly 'weird' and not done to the same extent if you come from outside the US.

And not only do we have actual history (ibm) and many contemporary US companies doing these kinds of practices, in many ways the practices make much more sense if taken as a natural extension of already common American cultural practices...

We've moved from a market where people would be able to just pick a name for something, to one where most names are taken.

Essentially, good .com names are now like prime real estate. Search engines and browsers have done a bad job at making other TLDs as accessible, so there's a natural bias towards them.

If domains are like land, I wonder why the market hasn't moved from a parking system where domains are resold at a premium, to a leasing system?

It's about time for the US Government to intervene and dissolve ICANN and transfer the domain business to Mozilla! Instead of backing a buck of patchwork requests for comments, we should start a Whitehouse petition and ask the government to end this legalized scam!

Everything regarding domains is designed to scam the regular folk and pour money into registrars and domainers!

Imagine you forgot to pay your phone bill, and then all your competitors start bidding, and they get your number in 30 days. This cannot happen in the real world, because it's wrong, but it happens with much more valuable ones (yet cheap in terms of annual cost) - the domains.

All this is designed to steal money from all of us and pour it into the greedy bellies of some of the sketchiest folks in the digital domain - the domainers. I'd say that even the SEO scammers are much more sophisticated and nice than the domainers! Yet, ICANN allows them to exist, and guarantees heir profits!

That's a shame for the company. What's more interesting for me in this headline is how the main point is that it's a SoftBank-backed company.
