There is a new, closed-source Microsoft DirectX 12 library for Linux apps that speaks WDDM to /dev/dxg.

There is a pre-existing closed-source NVIDIA Vulkan+OpenGL+CUDA library for Linux apps that speaks EGLStreams to /dev/nvidia0.

There is an announcement that the closed-source NVIDIA library might start speaking WDDM to /dev/dxg.

There is a pre-existing open-source Mesa DirectX 12 (+Vulkan +OpenGL + ...) library for Linux apps that speak GBM to /dev/dri (and some support for speaking EGLStreams to /dev/nvidia0 too).

There is a pull request to implement /dev/dxg in the kernel as a Hyper-V pipe for WSL2's use.

There are lots of interaction points for alternate implementations of various pieces of the stack. For example, in the future it might ultimately be possible for an alternate /dev/dxg implementation to wrap the normal DRM API, or for NVIDIA's binary driver to reimplement /dev/dxg on real hardware.

>I decided to run Apple Rhapsody in VMWare, which can be thought of as a very early version of OS X.

Rhapsody was more of a quick and dirty port of NeXTSTEP to Mac hardware than a version of OS X.

>Rhapsody came out in 1998.

NeXTSTEP is from the late 80's.

Google isn't taking control of DNS. That will still be up to the user, and like Firefox, I expect it to be configurable too. Mozilla already implemented and is using DNS-over-HTTPS. That is why I find the Google hate to be semi-manufactured. Cases like this, it makes no sense to argue against something like this. Even if I was running my own DNS server, I would still want to use DNS-over-HTTPS in my own setup.

I'm all for decentralizing DNS and the web as a whole, but does that mean that I am going to advocate against better centralized security because of it? Absolutely not, especially when a majority of users don't have access to decentralized DNS today.
I would pay them if it meant no ads and better content.

But wait, isn't this exactly how MOST businesses operate today? I certainly can't go to my local dry cleaners and request the transaction data for something that happened 2 years ago, much less any sort of metadata about that transaction (3 shirts, one blue two white, no starch). The normal principle most businesses adhere to is a strictly limited time period of "memory" of any particular transaction or interaction, after which it is solely the customer's responsibility to keep records.
Thanks for mentioning Capiche! I think there's so much opportunity in this space so I'm stoked to see anyone else joining in.

At the very start, I wanted Capiche to be essentially Wirecutter for SaaS. We ended up going in a different direction, but I'm super impressed with Satchel's execution here, and as someone who spends a crazy amount of time on this stuff, I learned a bunch of new things reading through the site today.

I really don't want to hijack @fission's launch discussion, but thought I'd just reply to your comment on the invite-only thing: our site will be wide open soon-ish. Just taking our time building a community around high quality discussion (most of which has little to do with comparisons/reviews), but eventually will open it all up. Think of it like Stack Overflow's private beta...just a step in the process.

Your default assumption only works if every disk has an independent probability of failing from each other. Which is definitely not true if you buy all the disks from the same batch.
The developers' word is irrelevant. Microsoft is a business. Microsoft will pursue its long term business interests. Developers are hired to do what the business directs. So the question is really, "what would best serve Microsoft's business interests?" and not "what do the developers intend?" because in time only one question matters and unfortunately it's not the one with the best interests of non-windows-users in mind.

I haven't heard about anything like that for X. Wouldn't any attempts to sandbox the ttys mess things that used them up in various ways? X is at heart a terminal oriented system. What are you trying to accomplish here? Normally it turns out that it is fairly futile to attempt to isolate tasks running as the same user from one another under the Unix security model.

My (US based) bank and both my credit cards do this just fine and I download them to gnucash; it does this with a third-party library AqBanking, which includes both a GUI configuration program and a command-line tool for downloading to a CSV, which you can the process with whatever you like.

Show HN: Yand – task management made easy
Please check out our new project and task management application. Still in early stage, so all feedback would be greatly appreciated.

So essentially the binary records are tagged with a record type, which is used by the tool (via a library maintained by another team) to provide metadata (field names, types, ordering etc) for that record type.

Human meaningful field names are made available when records are processed in your awk expressions. This is an improvement over using a delimited text dump of the record and using regular awk with meaningless $1, $2 variables.

I could be wrong, but I believe the relational operators also recognize common record field types like dates and timestamps that a text dump + regular awk couldn't.

The output of the tool is always a human readable serialization.
It depends on what the startup offers and what market they are in. Microsoft's acquisition of LinkedIn is a successful one for example.
Alex Jones being kicked off those services isn't the same thing. He was spreading major misinformation and targeted harassment at innocent people that were involved in a tragedy. He wasn't "conspired" against. They just told him to go host his hate somewhere else.

And stop with these "censorship" BS. Alex Jones has every right to start his own network if he wants and put anything on it. There's nothing stopping him from doing it. But there is also zero reason why another private company has to be forced to carry something they don't want to. Free speech doesn't mean everyone is forced to listen to that speech. Why not say that CBS/NBC/ABC/PBS are also "conspiring" against him too because they don't carry his show? OMG, Nickelodeon doesn't carry Alex Jones! They're censoring him!

Come on.
Keeping an unencrypted local mirror on your own device(s) would solve that problem, as well as potentially the "my data is stuck on their servers" problem. On devices with space for it, I mean, so maybe laptop but not phone by default.

There will surely be controversy for Spotify now, given that Rogan has had such guests in the past. I could be overly optimistic, but I would guess that means that people at Spotify have considered the issue and decided they're okay with it.

(And I'm sure you know this, but I think we should be explicit about it in this context: Joe Rogan is extraordinarily popular, with JRE being one of the most followed podcasts in the country. He's not some niche voice that Spotify could have failed to do due diligence on or silence without expecting blowback.)
Probably a right assumption.

As long as you can't do payments well under $1 things are doomed.

Just look at camming sites.

You buy 100tokens for 10€ and can "tip" people ¢10 if you like.

This works pretty well, and I think people would be happy to pay like ¢10-¢50 en masse for all kind of stuff if it was possible.
I’ve been tracking my finances on and off for a few years, but finally made the habit stick around Christmas last year. I do it not so much to know what I’ve spent already, more to know how much I can spend in any given category.

I’m using YNAB, which has honestly changed the way I think about money. Historically I’ve always taken the approach that there’s no point having money and not spending it, impulse buying things, and then being screwed when an unexpected bill comes in. Or the need to eat just before payday.

YNAB pushes you into allocating money at the point it comes in, anything from rent and groceries to a pot for renewing my Amazon Prime subscription when it comes up. Somehow the act of allocating the money seems to trigger the same mental reaction as actually spending it used to, and I’ll now often find myself with more money left over to go into savings at the end of the month because I actually didn’t need to spend most of what was allocated to my generic “fun money” bucket.
Except it's way too big now, resulting in spurious cursor-jumps, erroneous right-clicks... it's dumb.

Even dumber is that Apple didn't do the obvious thing to make the giant trackpad pay off: Make the Pencil work on it! DUHHHH
While there is no one right answer for everybody, I like to think about the ideas of "eustress" versus distress. Both kinds of stress are uncomfortable for people, but one kind results in positive growth and the other in exhaustion. The best coaches and teachers are able to recognize where someone is, what the next level is for that person, and knows how to push (or pull) them into that next level for a while.
I think they should let someone to have an entry point for at least trainee and people trying. Or it is another security measure, only insider can join with barrier of million dollars investment.

Given that a 'better me' would probably spend less money on frivolities, that's probably the case.

Really though, it's a wasted opportunity. I have childhood ambitions that I'd follow up almost any realistic lead to achieve. I refuse to believe that out of six billion people, not one has created a product that would help me. But nobody in the ad space is even asking for my input.
Sticking to a budget is an emotional problem, not a mathematical one. Helping solve emotional problems is extremely difficult.

True, but on the other hand allowing podcasters to make significantly more money will increase supply and you will have more podcasts to choose from with higher quality.

Consider what would happen to the quality of books if copyright couldn't be applied them: every book would have a 'free and open feed' on the internet, but overall I don't think readers would benefit.

I’m be been listening to podcasts daily since probably at least 2007. I feel the same way. I have plenty of memories of filling up my iPod shuffle with pods and taking them wherever I wanted. I’ve got nothing against Spotify in general, but I’ve quit listening to a number of podcasts that went exclusive solely out of principle.
I got dialblocker.com, that actually doesn't seem that bad.
This literally cost me sleep last night, paging me for new Kubernetes nodes that failed to transition to 'Ready' because they were unable to pull Calico images during bootstrapping. After some duct-taping to get those initial nodes up and running, we just moved the Quay-hosted images to a GCR repository and moved on with life.

But that doesn't diminish the fact that this outage is a complete disaster for Quay.
I can confirm this. I learned the hard way to buy hard disk drives of the same model but from different batches.

Just run a Linux hyper-v vm. That's what WSL2 is doing under the hood anyway. I run it this way and it's great. I have windows terminal auto ssh into it. Performance is great. And using the X server x410 on the windows side gui performance is fantastic (though no hardware acceleration) because instead of ssh tunneling x410 suports AF_VSOCK for the x socket, which hyper-v supports for performance as good as a domain socket on the same machine.
Agreed, that sounds like a good problem to have!
> Your processor would give the same perf as the lowest end ryzen.

Not for single core performance though, right? Which is what I'm looking at here.
I wonder if a dedicated company could build a non-privacy invasive RSS reader that could: (1) show targeted ads based on a user's curated blog feed; (2) Develop a profit-sharing model for those authors that generate the most traffic. I'm kind of thinking like hackernews but (A) user-curated content; and (B) Advertising; and (C) optional subscriptions to support the bloggers. There could of course be a discovery mode to find new blogs, but the default would be user-curated. To ensure payments were significant enough to overcome the micropayment problem, perhaps a "minimum payout" could be set for authors so they could accumulate proceeds (and see some fruits of their labor without having to set up their own individual payment system) even if they couldn't withdraw them yet. If someone really was motivated they might even be able to set this up as a non-profit. Just kind of a brain dump. Thinking of this as "the front page for blogs" by bloggers for bloggers (instead of a big corporation whose primary objective is to generate profits, which is exceedingly difficult with traditional RSS feeds). Fraud and spoofing views would be an obvious challenge of this framework.
I think you mean "don't say bad things".

Are you aware that high school boys soccer and hockey teams are competitive with elite, world class women's teams? Do you think the advantages that men appear to have are anywhere near fully erased by transitioning genders?

> I don't think this is as big of a problem as people pretend it is.

This is not really about the specific issue to anyone on either side. To you, it's about acceptance of transgender people. To your opponents, it's about not accepting the denial of what seems like blindingly obvious reality.
> Software has always been developed that way and it has never been a problem.

It's always been a problem, most people just don't know that because the majority of users don't express their concerns in the way(s) that the developers are open to hearing those concerns.
I don't think anyone is explicitly faulting Joe for trying to make money. The initial assumption in this comment chain was Joe NEEDS money, which is unlikely. The man can be enterprising without us having to pretend his family will starve otherwise.
Can't they separate UX from the rest? and have 2 UX for the same product?
Some advice: if you don't have a compelling brand name, make sure you have a relative, close friend or PR rep who works for a micropayments client.

Large companies have absolutely no reason to partner with an unknown. Worse than NIH, is "why fund a parasite on top of our business model?"
They'd certainly prefer that upstream Linux maintains it for them. The more code they have to maintain out of tree, the harder it is for them to upgrade their WSL kernel.
What does this even mean? Are you suggesting a private company should be forced to host content they don't want to? Should Fox News be forced to host Rachael Maddow and a Huffpost show? Is Fox News "censoring" Huffpost by not hosting a show on their network?
This is a great post. But the biggest opportunity here is to build an aggregate SMB platform to take on Amazon. In my local downtown, I see a ton of mom and pop stores, but they don’t get a ton of foot traffic. I sometimes imagine unlocking their inventory that can allow for some inherent advantages like same day pick-up and supporting local businesses
I used dynamically generated awk scripts a few years ago to take some delimited text files that were several hundred gigabytes and pre-process them for faster loading to a DB. It sped up the whole process a huge amount - I don’t remember exactly now but I think it went from 24 hours to get it all loaded to under 2 hours. Useful tool to have in the tool box.

It says 4 sentences earlier:

Wait, your problem is with the actions taken to avoid a taxable event in New York by a buyer in Oklahoma?

This is the same as when you buy something on Amazon and the tax is based on your delivery destination, rather than Amazon's distribution centers or headquarters. It is lawful and makes sense.
I think you're describing payments, not micropayments.

Do you mean allocations as in heap? If so yeah, I guess I should have stated it better as it still needs to put space on the stack for the short string.
Completely agree. My wife showed me her phone the other day and asked "what's this PIN nonsense in signal", which I hadn't seen yet. The messaging, UI and overall UX missed the mark. What happened, Signal??
AMD motherboards don't seem very cheap. Did vendors really not include enough flash memory capacity so that adding support for new CPUs requires dropping older ones, or was this just a convenient excuse to make everyone upgrade?

Anyway, a welcome development, although support is still dependent on individual vendors releasing BIOS updates. Will be interesting to see how this works out in practice.
Why would they? In its current state, this driver is only useful when Linux is running on Windows. A regular Linux desktop/server user would not find this useful.

I imagine that, in the same way content is spread across multiple pages to increase ad-views, the same thing would happen with micropayments.

Best movies of 2020 would be "pay 0.10 for #100-90 and then .10 for each #90-#80 etc". Stratechery would be "pay 0.10 for the above the fold part and then 0.10 for the rest".

Authors used to get paid in micropayments (by the word or books were serialized) so we don't have to guess about the effects. Victorian authors (whose works were all published serialized) stretched things out to the point where modern readers often find them unbearably long.

American males are an average of 5½ inches taller [1], which is an extreme advantage in Basketball [2]:

> Empirically, the over-representation of extremely tall athletes in basketball lends credence to the theory that the sport provides tall players with a very significant advantage. The average American male is 5 ft 9.3 in (1.76 m).[18] Yet, in a 2007-08 player survey, the average player in the National Basketball Association (NBA) is listed at 6 ft 7 in (2.01 m) in shoes.
