Ask HN: Is twitter.com just another application built on api.twitter.com?
From your experience, what are some of the strategies people adopt in these cases? Do you have a different public API stack from the one your original client is built on?

Are there any considerations on limiting the public exposure of internal APIs? Or have you seen any successful implementation of a multi-tenant API where the product and third-party apps both use the same underlying API infrastructure?
Why wouldn't you use an ad blocker or a browser that blocks 3rd party cookies if you're concerned about that?
I tried Nixos but I found out it is really easy to setup a system but then it gets harder when you get off the beaten path by messing with npm or steam for example.

I think a winning approach would be to manage the OS using nix, but let the user do more imperative stuff in his home directory.

Here is an illustration of how one is supposed to use a package manager for a programming language (in this example npm) in Nixos: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/381797

And here is an article about the hoops needed to run Steam games: https://nixos.wiki/wiki/Steam
The reality is that food delivery already has high costs for vehicle maintenance and the person doing the delivery often bears that burden themselves, as well as being typically underpaid or in danger of wage insecurity, along with lack of benefits. Those are hidden/socialized costs of our current food service and delivery infrastructure. Engineering a robot that may not be economically desirable when the current system lets you offload a significant cost of human labor.
As I mentioned in a reply to a peer comment, the environment you describe is still the norm in most of the US. By contrast, there's a very high-pressure atmosphere in many of the "superstar" metro areas of the US. Many of us here on HN grew up in other places and moved to these "superstar" metro areas, so the contrast appears even starker that it would be if we were comparing the same places over time.
Great, but you're making the OP's point:

You wouldn't have to parse data from some other representation if Nix lang was less weird, eh?
Seriously cool. That also reminds me of DragonFlyBSD's process checkpointing feature that offers suspend to disk. In Linux world there were many attempts, but AFAIK nothing simple and complete enough. To be fair I don't know if DF's implementation is that either.

> Not just temporarily, but the space is empty and there is a big "for rent" sign in the window.

That's crazy. I can't imagine much demand for retail space at the moment, so why would a landlord kick out a previously good customer in order to let it go empty.

Once places open back up, nobody is going to be opening new resturants any time soon, so rents will be way down on any new tenant.

You should read about it. The Tories may not be proto-fascist, but the willingness of the entire political system to compromise towards the right is what meant that fascist uprisings were successful in the 1930s and not when they tried earlier (it was shut down by the KPD and SPD prior to it)

There definitely are closed components. They're built on a foundation of a linux/bsd, no?

I'm speaking to the lineage of what linux has been able to impact.

It's not likely that closed components could have existed without a foundation of linux/bsd.

Plenty of people sneaking out to get drinks or get high when I was 16 years old and in highschool (8 years ago).
CMU is arguably top tier only for CS (where it is basically the top college tied with 3 others), the ivies generally are highly ranked in sciences and liberal arts, and also in other areas. The industry knows what's the best for subjects relevant to them, the school kids are just going by a general quality perception (which may or may not match with the industry perception).
I do this same thing. Emphasis is on skim. I never read a pirated book; if it isn't worth owning, it isn't worth my limited reading time.

Back when physical book stores existed, this is how I would buy books. I would go in and skim books and I would buy the ones I was interested in. It is nearly impossible to do this now as the remaining physical book stores can't carry all the books I'd like to skim and potentially buy.
I can make multiple instances to run multiple simulations in parallel, but matrix factorisation within the program itself is single-threaded. The stiffness matrix of these structures needs to be reformulated frequently (every time a structural element yields / gets damaged), so this is the largest time-sink, I think.

I agree, I just upgraded fro Ubuntu 18 to 19 to 20. I noticed it took some time to get going too, and suspect there are background tasks that complete after the base OS install.

Quebec corruption in almost all organized labour adds a layer of cost to all Quebeckers. Then the high taxes and enourmously overpaid civil serpents adds another. Where does the $$ come from to cover this? There are two major revenue sourcesL; One is the Canadian federal revenue sharing with Quebec, called Equalization (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equalization_payments_in_Canad...).
All Canadians subsidize Quebec - mainly Ontario and the oil riches on Manitoba and others with oil (used to be oil rich at any case). The other main source of Quebec revenue is the rape of Labrador Water power revenues(part of Newfoundland). This was a huge win for Quebec, as it gets the power at $3 per MWh, compared to what Quebec sells it for $40-45 per MWh. Once this run out in 2041 = death of this huge cash cow for the most part, as Labrador will finish a large EHV DC line to the USA under the sea by then, one hopes. (it is planned and as you can see, can finance itself easily)
So Quebec will find itself in real trouble by then.

Mobo makers are hiding behind their QVL rather than making a functioning product. "Sorry, we only tested this version of Crucial memory, not that version." Never mind the fact that they use the same in-house Crucial stuff underneath, changes are largely chip packaging, etc. Almost all of the memory on the market comes from one of the last 5 companies actually making DRAM (not counting Shenzen specials). Anything from Crucial, Samsung, Hynix, etc should work. It's JEDEC DDR4 compatible. Period. Hiding a bad product because a DIMM isn't on the QVL is low-class.

I'm not even talking about XMP stuff. I'm talking about booting with basic 2400/2666 stuff. "Yeah that's good RAM but not on our QVL. Get bent."
Slack made the process easy, and with emojis and slash commands, fun and useful.

I think another benefit to slack is you can come back to it and see the history. IRC is ephemeral unless you stick to a single device and leave it running. That's impossible for a mobile phone.

It frustrates me that some large projects (ex Ansible) who insist on all discussions there, and explicitly ignore things like GitHub issues.
Be mostly due to many things have been curtailed by laws, bylaws and other restrictions.

However, online has been an avenue of teenage expression that seems to of taken up the slack in many area's.

But hard to compare say 70's childhood experience with todays without factoring in that many aspects of life changed.

Or how fast! SDFs can compute approximations of volumetric effects that on a regular raytracing engine would take a few seconds to render.

Additionally, games have been using (baked) 2D SDFs [1] for ages to render world-space (and recently even plain screen-space) text, it's plausible to use the same technique to generate other kinds of shapes.

It can be very useful for UI elements since you can have just a few source assets, and with some shader parameters you get fully animatable effects such as drop shadows, glow, and even normals.

The South is likely to have America’s highest death rate from Covid-19
I'd expect the amount of critical stay-away to vary between countries; as above, I expect the UK to be an extreme case due to both the government's messaging and the NHS's general position in society.

In Sweden people were not told to avoid hospitals, as far as I know, so that doesn't show much. Certainly some people did out of fear if they weren't too sick, but hopefully they'll avoid the UK situation.

For Belgium I don't know what they did, I haven't looked, but if all excess death is really being reported as COVID related then I suspect over-counting of COVID cases rather than undercounting; something that is already clearly happening in many places e.g. New York and Germany.

Also, thank you for a thoughtful response. I can appreciate your eagerness to save lives too, but I would not so easily cast doctors as any less eager. A doctor that avoids experimental treatment is doing so precisely because they believe they are acting in a patient's best interests.

Front-line doctors simple have a different perspective: There are many prospective treatments that might show promise. Most will not work. Many may have their own catastrophic effects. At the same time, doctors must make immediate decisions on how to treat patients, without the luxury of time to review all prospective experimental treatments, most of which lack sufficient data to make a rapid determination of their risk. And remember their foundational, ancient oath: "First, do no harm". If that oath engenders a certain amount of conservatism in treatment choices, you should not berate the doctors themselves as deficient: Your issue is with the fundamental philosophy of medical practice.

I am glad you are hungry to save lives. But remember humility: Any number of significant failures that cost lives can be found will minimal searching, and undoubtedly most involved were eager to save lives as well. The drug combo FenFen comes to mind: I'm sure the researchers involved were eager to save lives and improve the health of obese people, but they're efforts caused serious heart problems in up to 30% of those taking the drug. Medical history is littered with failures and death. You must remember that. If doctors are conservative in their treatment choices, they have good reason, and should not be condemned for it. You'll win no people to your cause if you vilify those you seek to convince, all you will do is attract people who are already inclined to agree with you.
I think you're right about that one, unfortunately.

Here, how about a quote about blessings?

>“When I drink my little wine — which is about the only wine I drink — and have my little cracker, I guess that is a form of asking for forgiveness, and I do that as often as possible because I feel cleansed,” he said. “I think in terms of ‘let’s go on and let’s make it right.'”
Two things to consider:

1. A large amount of BTC volume is fake volume or wash trading to benefit the exchange marketing. Particularly CoinMarketCap is an extremely misleading and unreliable data source. Their data is totally useless and means basically nothing. It's just a glorified ad site where exchanges pay money to list their fake volumes to get ranked high and acquire customers. Just look at the list of high-volume exchanges in your link and you can see that the vast majority of them are unknown and untrusted little companies inflating or completely making up their volumes.

2. Large amounts of BTC are traded OTC (over-the-counter) and would never show up in such data.

I don't know anything about Apple stock, but I can guarantee you that the $30B BTC figure is totally off. How off? Nobody really knows. It's impossible to get reliable data. True trade volume could be 1% or 10% of that.

Also, why do you care about trade volume? Depending on how it's generated it may not be an indicator of anything. If your goal is to measure liquidity, trade volume is not a good metric to look at.
To some degree, yes. However, that assumes a functioning BIOS release is available and works...many incremental releases are no functioning despite release notes saying otherwise. Many times, you can't downgrade the BIOS either. So you're stuck with a bad board waiting for a beta BIOS...fun times!

The workstation/server platforms ARE better. Having a BMC to flash/recover things is much more reliable.

Maybe I’ll sound like an old fogey for saying this, but... I enjoy reading and I feel like this level of analysis would take all the joy out of it. With exercise you are competing against your past self to gain strength and endurance. With reading, what is the goal to optimize against? I think it would be more valuable to summarize and annotate thoughts as you read the book rather than measuring your progress through it by page count.
The math is a simplification of a biological process that is highly variable and poorly documented. Your original idea is a fine hypothesis, though the suitability of the params behind exponential growth is mostly irrelevant.
I live in an area of "soft" water. I knew of the concept but I had no idea it affected the rinsing off of soap. I had also never noticed that soap might have rinsed off easier when traveling. (And even if I had, I'd probably just have assumed the soap to be different.)

Conversely, I suppose the buildup of limescale might surprise me if I were to spend time in an area where water is significantly "harder".

I understand what you're saying about the P4 boards and that largely echos what I'm saying. The vendor chipsets are bad, AMD's are worse than Intel's, and there's not much a mobo vendor can do.

Intel boards do need upgrades to work with newer CPU's. This is true. But their updates actually work when they say they add support. Go back to July 2019 and read all the forum posts and YouTube videos of everyone complaining about Ryzen 3000, "Well Gigabyte said this release works...but it doesn't." And on and on.

It's a sorry state of affairs all around, but Intel is better than AMD. I write this on an AMD rig and after spending way too much money getting it going.
> The linking phase for C and C++ software is basically linear.

Linking is also IO-bound, and already a solved problem in the sense that there are already plenty of solutions that render linking to be a non-issue. It's far from a decent CPU benchmark.

There is no introduction to tell me who is selecting these articles and why I should believe their claim that these are the best articles on this subject.

And I cannot scroll vertically. At all. I drag the screen and it just tries to select the cells, or scrolls whichever column I’m pressing on left and right a little.
