I am a believer in markets and generally buy the idea that HFT produces value by providing liquidity, but I interviewed at an HFT firm where we spent most of the time talking about microwave networks that cut down transmission times by nanoseconds. I have a hard time telling myself the story that an arms race over milliseconds is creating as much value as it captures. E.g. from WSJ:

> [Jim Barksdale] spent an estimated $300 million or more to bury a fiber-optic cable that shaved three-thousandths of a second off communications between New York and Chicago

All those BEPs are in "Draft" status. Okay, libtorrent implements two of them. But also, BEP 39 (Updating Torrents Via Feed URL) doesn't really fit very well into the fully distributed setting because of the centralized URL part.

So now to update the torrent file you need a mechanism for having a mutable document you can update in a distributed but signed way. Or you could make an append only feed of sequential torrent urls... oh wait.

My point is: Hyperdrive's scope is sufficiently different from your proposed solution that yes, you could probably rely on existing tools (and I have much love for bittorrent based solutions!) but it starts feeling like shoehorning the problem into a solution that doesn't quite fit.
I don't really know about that, but the more important question is could it.
So, words alone, and domain names can't be trademarked especially common ones like Oban which is a name that's in common use. The trademark would have to be against something more specific like font, color, stylization, etc... That would cause your Oban to be confused with their Oban. I don't see how anyone would confuse your site with Oban Scotland or Oban whiskey.

As a 2 person project I'm not suggesting you dump money you probably don't have in to fighting this but you should for sure not just roll over unless you intentionally were trying to cause confusion. You don't say the entity that sent the trademark notice, but my impression is that confusion is not your intention.

You should prepare for rebranding just to be ready, but you should also push back and not just comply either.
> In my experience sites that do this are almost universally slower and less responsive than sites that just use normal links.

Yup. A car analogy: "Instead of waiting for the driver to turn the steering wheel before causing the car to turn, we put the car on the back of a flatbed truck that tracks driver behaviour and tries to predict their intent. Then we can start turning the flatbed truck a little bit sooner to improve user experience."

Yes, take a look at the manual page for knockd and search for "One_Time_Sequences". It does what you are asking by using a one-time valid sequence of port knocks, but it is like HOTP rather than TOTP.

I recently researched EPYC 7002 boards available via retail channels and found four options: Supermicro, Asrock, Tyan, and Gigabyte. Of these, Asrock and Tyan both offer 10Gbe options. I ended up buying the Asrock board with 10Gbe from Newegg, but haven't hooked it up yet.

https://www.asrockrack.com/general/productdetail.asp?Model=E...

https://www.tyan.com/Motherboards_S8030_S8030GM4NE-2T

Though now that I look at it, the ASRock board is advertising "10G base-T by Intel® X550" -- is this different from the "built-in" functionality you mention?
+1 I definitely agree with this. Today there are many strong languages/frameworks that are just as productive or close to as productive as Rails, particularly with more modern languages. I was really impressed by Phoenix when I worked with that. It was very easy to scale out when the time came because of all the support OTP gave you and because of design decisions like immutability by default

I briefly took a look at the page and checked out the comments and thought you were being a total buzzkill on a cool toy project until I went back and actually looked at the schematic.

This is project taking complete control over the motor that opens and closes the door and NOT using the simple "throw a relay on the door opener" trick that you usually see (ex: https://cdn.instructables.com/F9V/T9JH/I9YBZHM7/F9VT9JHI9YBZ...).

This project is unnecessarily dangerous for such a simple application.
These people bet on bets. They will abstract the automation in some way as a financial instrument.

Or make automation that abstracts on top of the automation.

Finance is just dirty.
I will say this. Having seen garage door go down without a warning, I would think twice before attempting it in such a haphazard way. Nothing wrong with a little hacking, but this project seems to be asking for trouble.
Hatching Twitter is very interesting and has a lot of drama, I loved it. I found that Elon Musk had a boring writing style (very slow to start). I also recommend Bad Blood, it's hard to stop reading it once started.

One great aspect of Facebook is that Zuckerberg interviewed with the author for years and the cut into parts makes a lot of sense (Harvard and before, "Move fast and break things", Trump, aftermath).
> I don't put all of that into my CSV parser,

The art of not cluttering a library with too much stuff is a hard lesson to acquire. Most library authors try to throw in the kitchen sink. It's insane. I'm sure I was guilty of it in the past.

For parser take a string. let me do the I/O outside. If you want to offer streams then just offer an abstract interface stream and then a few examples of implementing a stream but don't include them in your library. It's just clutter.

This is one if largest problems with NPM. So many libraries try to do too much. Some come with a command line utility "just because"!??!?! It then adds more surface area, more dependencies, more churn as we have to update all those un-needed dependencies.
Is there evidence that governments are saving that much more with open source? You'd still have to pay developers...and some cities are going to freeload off others to avoid overhead costs.
The problem isn't that we're speculating about it, the problem is that we're basing (scientific) assumptions about current behavior on speculations about past behavior which has no evidence to support it.
Both are equivalent leisure time activities that I would never say improve your life as the OP claimed. They improve your life in so much the same way games do, leisure, so their comment is purely "I don't like them so they can't be good" which is complete crap.
Alternately, “If you don’t assume that all usage is fungible, the data tells a different story”. There are a few apps - music/movies/ebooks and Facebook - which get a disproportionately large amount of activity. If you’re not competing with them, the global numbers are going to be skewed.

This is especially true when you think about tasks rather than screen time. If I’m Facebook or Spotify selling ads, I want people glued to the app for a long time. If I’m selling things, giving information or customer service, etc. the story is completely different: someone placing an order faster is actually a win.

EDIT: My experience is colored by being in the cultural heritage space where the flurry of “we’re in the App Store!!!” entries met the hard reality of every engagement metric being much lower than web sites. There is huge variation hidden in global averages.
It’s important to have facts in a debate as opposed to leaning so hard on the quality of your instincts for money. “Well duh, isn’t that just what rich people do?” should only go so far in the age of data.
Hmm, I don't think the headline is misleading in this case but i generally agree with you. It's easy to cherry-pick studies that support your position, and maybe even interpret them in dishonest ways. Perhaps a more accurate title here would say something about preprints being weaponized by conspiracy theorists, and why journalists shouldn't report on them — but the general public would likely not be familiar with preprints, and this title gets at the heart of it.
Surely the hypothesis about modules as discrete physical structures is not central to the idea that genes influence psychology? If you accept that genes control some aspects of psychology through effects on the brain and the construction thereof, then evolution can select for psychological features. Lack of rigor is an important thing to call out, of course. Also, if I'm wrong and the whole field depends on some specific model of how genes influence the brain, then that would be interesting, but she doesn't seem to be arguing that directly.
#3: Laravel 7 Artisan Test Runner and Configure It with Visual Studio Code
Compressed with 7-Zip, sure, but uncompressed, the entire thing takes up 10TB. The Hyperdrive post doesn't mention compression at all, so the comparison should be without it.

> As of June 2015, the dump of all pages with complete edit history in XML format at enwiki dump progress on 20150602 is about 100 GB compressed using 7-Zip, and 10 TB uncompressed.

From: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Size_of_Wikipedia#Si...

It's a bit of a nitpick either way because you're right, Wikipedia may not be the best example because 10TB is still relatively small.
Canada does have a stake in the matter as Huawei hacked Nortel to steal their IP and then undercut all their business deals causing nortel to go bankrupt to the detriment of 94,000 employees and every single Canadian that owned just about and stock market fund.

It is embarrassing that we haven’t banned Huawei products in Canada yet.
There isn't much. Rust has deprecated some mistakes (like Error::cause). The editions mechanism allowed fixing some issues (like unintuitive module paths).

https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues?q=label%3Arust-2-br...

• Struct literal syntax should have used C99 syntax. The language uses `name:type` everywhere except struct literals which use `name:value`, and this gets in the way of adding new syntax (type ascriptions).

• `Box` is semi-magical. Maybe it could have been a regular struct. Or maybe magical all the way to allow placement new and destructuring.

• Types are in borrowed, owned-fixed-size and owned-growable variants, but naming of them is a bit ad-hoc. There's str/String, but Path/PathBuf (instead of e.g. String/StringBuf or path/Path).

• Split between libcore and libstd is awkward to manage and not a good fit for WASM. It could have been one libstd with feature toggles (this might still happen).

• Some people think split between Eq and PartialEq is an overkill, and just makes floats annoying.

There are things that are still unsolved in Rust, like umovable types and self-referential structs. But it's hard to say they're a mistake — as far as we know, they're a necessary limitation to make other useful features work.
Thank you, didn't know there's an option for that. I might give it a try.

> I think the web community overall looks at native apps like they are some weird, alien technology because they're completely blinded by what they build and what tools they use.

There is some everything-looks-like-a-nail but that's not all. I'm making a native desktop app now which is slow going. Every platform I want to support is so different, and cross-platform tooling often requires branching and learning each ones quirks anyway.

Just making an Electron/ReactNative app is often the best of both worlds should a website not suffice. (Excluding concerns like battery life, app size, or memory footprint.)
I meant rightgif, which the parent mentioned as an alternative.
This comment is simply not on topic.

The article doesn't claim that testosterone is correlated with Covid19 in any way, it merely says that it might be, and solicits further research. So your question isn't a response to anything in the article.

The HN guidelines explicitly say to not accuse people of not reading the article, but it's hard to have any reasonable discussion if people don't.

Video games are pretty fun though. They are quite mentally stimulating, and you can play with friends.

I take multiple walks every day (I have a dog), but I also live in a 500 sqft rental apartment in Manhattan which limits the kind of activities I can engage in.

That's the difference between treating patients and reducing spread. Appling a preventative to a small population of at-risk individuals will help them individually but won't decrease spread with the population, won't decrease their exposure. That requires preventing the infection from spreading amongst all people, including those who are at no real risk.

This is one of those special situations where one contemplates a applying treatment to patients A B and C not to protect them from harm but to protect them from spreading something to patients D and E. The ethical difficulty is how one balances the potential increased in risks to ABC against the benifits to DE. What if hormone therapy to ABC reduces their lifespan? What it if causes long term behavioral or repoductive changes? How should that be balanced against D and E's chances of infection/death?

Remember that any widespread COVID therapy will likely be with us as long as the disease. Altering hormone levels across a population, potentially for many years or even decades, is a radical approach. And to think of altering testosterone amongst the reproductive-aged population, potentially modifying sexual development of exposed children too, to safeguard those beyond reproductive age from COVID? That's a very dangrous area.
Yeah, NYC should really just disband the subway and tell everyone to drive their cars.

The whole point is that right now China does not depend on us as much as we depend on them for manufacturing. We need to correct the balance, or at least expanding manufacturing in neutral or allied countries.

If a war breaks out now, they are in a better position regarding manufactured goods. Rare earth metals too.

In general I think this is more about cities using the reduced traffic and shutdowns to accelerate their existing infrastructure plans.

That's the norm on a niche, expensive, enthusiast-dominated gaming platform though, right? Release anything even half-decent (not saying Alyx isn't better than that, mind) and almost everyone buys it, because they must really want to play games on it if they've got the platform, and there's relatively little high-quality content tailored for it (so far).

In all seriousness, I and a lot of colleagues use GIFs a lot at work. You can convey a lot of meaning/nuance with a single GIF I find. Honestly I never understand the need to use emojis. I just found that annoying but GIFs are incredibly succinct forms of communication. Or at least they can be.
That is not the purpose of the video. I worship the Saturn V as much as anyone, seriously not a week goes by that my kids don't hear a story out of me featuring that rocket, but the video does it's purpose.

If you really to give more (rightfully deserved) credit to the Saturn V, then in fact you can see how much more payload and propellant is on top of the still-firing S-IVB at the end of the video.
When you define "great developer" as "top contributors on StackOverflow" (or the ones responsible for founding it), of course the overlap will be 100%. I understand that StackOverflow actively requires people to work on their platform for no compensation so they want to encourage the idea that contributing makes you a better developer, but this is even more of a puff piece than I expected.
> but I don’t see how it’s at all possible to value the presence or absence of conflict without a context.

Taking into account how much the Afghanistan and Iraq conflicts have cost the US in money, how much lives and potential was lost, is actually easy.

Don't get me wrong, it was a good intention to get rid of the Taliban and Saddam, but the execution failed horribly. And that were backyard 3rd world countries. A conflict involving China would be an utter bloodshed, especially if it devolves into nuclear war, and it would totally destroy the US and probably EU economy.

We're seeing how much we depend on China now with the 'rona crisis, and that is a "China does their best effort to fulfill Western orders for anything from toys to medical PPE" scenario and not a "China is at war with the US and doesn't deliver anything to them and their allies" scenario. Politicians have also realized this but renationalizing even parts of what was outsourced to China will take decades. Until that happens China has the Western states by the balls, figuratively - and given how they acted with delivering PPE "donations" to Italy and other states that the EU left to fend alone they know this and are absolutely willing to use this as leverage to keep the US and EU from interfering in their eradications of Uighur Muslims and Tibetan people.

You’re on a web page. You can either do what you need or tap the install link, approve the install, wait for a huge download, find and open it, wait for it to initialize, authenticate in the app, and then find whatever you were doing. If you use this all the time it’s amortized over heavy usage but the vast majority of business apps are not, and every study I’ve seen shows people falling off at each of those stages.
'The measures include launching investigations and imposing restrictions on U.S. companies such as Apple Inc, Cisco Systems Inc, Qualcomm Inc as well as suspending purchase of Boeing Co airplanes, the report said here citing a source.'

While the percentage of time that I use in apps vs. the web is definitely heavily skewed, it is just two apps: Facebook and YouTube... occasionally Instagram or TikTok. Now ask the question "what percentage of products do you use are you using via an app or via the web" and the answer is going to be ridiculously dominated by the web: I might use 20 different products over the course of 10 minutes on the web while researching some topic, flipping between hacker news, stack overflow, medium, smaller personal blogs, documentation from microsoft or mozilla, major and minor news sites... this list is absolutely endless. Even for sites I might use that have an app, I am not going to open that app for just the one page I want from it as that's slower and pointless as I probably only want to use that site for five seconds.

Essentially, you have purposefully asked the wrong question in order to lie to us using statistics.
