I was talking to a guy in my squadron whos also a rated helicopter pilot when the Kobe crash happened, and he was explaining how much easier it is to become disoriented in a helicopter because you can freely move in any direction, unlike a plane, you're always moving forward. Additionally, he was saying many helicopter pilots don't stay current in IFR flying.
My 2¢. (1) When I wanted simplicity and rolling releases / bleeding edge, I found Void Linux, which is indeed very minimal. It does proper package management, though, and can remove orphans. (2) An even more minimal Linux "distro" based on git and tup was discussed back in the day: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16015105
Right, because people are gonna provide core dumps in their feedback.

Again, if you don’t want telemetry, don’t use the build Microsoft uses specifically to collect telemetry.

Don’t complain that the build MS uses only for telemetry requires you to provide telemetry.

Back in 2013 the company I was working for released a touchscreen kiosk. They rolled their own hardware and wanted a custom software solution. There was limited space on the device and it would not be internet-enabled. There would be no physical access to the device beyond the touchscreen, and the target audience was not known for being technically savvy.

I was tasked with delivering PHP code that would serve pages to the customer. For whatever reason I wasn't allowed to use CodeIgniter, which was what we used elsewhere in the company. I wound up creating a mini-framework to serve pages. It was extremely basic and limited, but in this situation it was what was needed.

It is the only time I've ever had to create a framework. I doubt I'll ever have to do so again. The beauty of frameworks is that they free you up to focus on your application and the logic to support it, rather than figuring out the best way to handle things like routing or database access.

This is inevitable. There are too many advantages for companies to encourage WFH. Reduce the entry level salaries for employees, save on building leases, no need to offer free food and more. The productivity will probably even increase too. I am sure they are all going over numbers to see how productivity changes.

For the employee though it’s going to be tough in the long run. Building relationships at work is one great way to get things done not just in the team but also across teams. So code might get written but the overarching dynamics about how things happen in a workplace are changing big time. We don’t see the effects of them until sometime.

That's very similar to my experience.
It's not directly UBI, but strong welfare programs don't seem to drive up rent prices. Since UBI with a corresponding progressive tax is equivalent to welfare, I'd assume it'd have similar results.
I have used (and still using) keycloak and gatekeeper for some projects which we use in prod as well. They are very good and stable, but require a lot of memory. I came across ory when I was searching for alternatives for keycloak. Keycloak is done in Java and the JVM is quite hungry. Also, there are no official helm charts etc. and the project does not feel cloud native. However, when the alternative is choosing auth0 and paying a lot of money, can't complain about keycloak.
I was aware of OpenModelica, but hadn't looked at the project in any great depth. I think it's a lot more ambitious than my project, which is restricted (at present) to a single model of computation.
> segments of society that are wholly dependent on government suffer despair, drug/alcohol abuse and crime

Is there a causal relationship in the direction implied by this sentence?

There's a correlation among unemployment, drug/alcohol abuse, depression, crime, homelessness, suicide, and probably several other negative things in society. It's hard to tease out the causal linkages, meaning that if something like UBI allows some people to quit their jobs, it's not clear that that quitting would have the same correlation to depression/abuse/suicide as today's sources of joblessness do.
Since people here seem to be digging your site (well, those that can access it right now anyway), I'll mention https://www.allsides.com as well. They also add a "center" viewpoint, which yours may do too, but it's getting hugged to hard for me to see right now.

Narrow, congested streets with not a lot of open space around it for run off are safer than wider, empty streets with lot of space around for when a driver might get off course. Why? Because a narrower street will keep the drivers focused on the road and potential dangers, whereas in the wider setting invites drivers to speed and drive recklessly in general, thinking that when they do a mistake they'll be safe anyways. This has been studied, however I don't have a link to the research papers at hand.

Another naive anecdotal dismissal of probable geopolitical trends. There’s no escaping the fact that highly intelligent people willing to work harder than most people in this culture supported by a sufficiently developed industrial base will be formidable.

I am delighted to see an xkcd comic make it to Hacker News's front page, but also a little disappointed it happened to be this one. It's a perfectly fine comic, but there are so many others that could have engendered even more interesting discussions, which I'd love to have been able to read.

Limiting myself purely to more recent ones:

• https://xkcd.com/2307/ - Alive or Not

• https://xkcd.com/2224/ - Software Updates

• https://xkcd.com/2221/ - Emulation

I'm also really missing the xkcd forums. The quality of the discussion was below what I'd expect to read on HN†, but it was still nice to have something for each of the comics.

† No disrespect intended to anyone who was on those forums—you're all great people, but there's less of you, and, well, there's nothing quite like HN.
I found it is most useful to just use it as a "pull" resource and not allow it to push you anything. I don't care about the guy complaining about a neighbor using his leaf blower at 8am, or the person complaining the FedEx driver delivered their package with no mask on (seriously).

So I shut off all Nextdoor notifications and only go on there when I am curious about something like you said, A late night explosion, helicopter, or if a business closed.

It was good at first, but like every community it seems the later adopters tend to be the worst. Now there are a lot of the types that call the police/town on everything or hold petty grudges against others due to what they view as transgressions. Pretty much always older people. You would think that having their real name out there would increase civility and make people more careful, but no. I just think younger people (people much younger than me like Gen Z'ers) more understand the permanence of interactions online, and just are more tolerant of other people. Whenever I feel myself getting cranky, I remember what it was like to always have "that person" on your block.
Hey sorry for the delay on this. Our pricing model hasn't been published as of yet, but yes, we do aim to make the technology accessible to all levels of creators in the future.
Are people worried about the actual contents of these kinds of telemetry, or rather just annoyed by the fact that it's there at all?

The first position seems a bit odd for something that is open source (so presumably you can verify what's being sent). I mean it might be bad to send "I installed product X" or "I used the command X" to a remote server, but on the other hand if I really feel this is a problem would I ever even be using the closed source binaries that the package manager installs, without worrying more what they might do, than what happened when the package manager ran?

Some times I get the feeling that the telemetry thing just became an expression of annoyance with something else entirely, or just the current state of affairs. It's like one of those cultural wars where every battle is so symbolic that everyone forgot what the real issue was ("Why do we worry so much about who uses which bathroom again dad?").
Money is just a placeholder for value produced. You usually produce value by doing something with your brain and body. "My money = my choice" is essentially "my body = my choice".

I'm a leftist person who isn't an opponent of ubi, but is an opponent of Yang's ubi. I have no problem with raising taxes, but I do have other concerns.

Namely, if everyone got $x,xxx a month, how do we ensure that rents don't just go up by that amount or wages don't go down by that amount? I worry that without a well thought out plan, UBI just ends up funneling money directly back to the wealthy (eg, landlords and business owners).

I'm not convinced yet that Yang has a thorough enough plan here.
In contrast, a pure Win32 Hello World (with GUI) can be 2KB or less with only the addition of some non-default linker options.

That's 3 orders of magnitude difference. Obviously it won't be as much with more complex applications, but it's still funny to see others here considering a dozen MB or so for doing something trivial to be small, when that's the size of a full installation of Windows 3.11 complete with all its built-in apps.

China signals plan to take full control of Hong Kong
I think that's closer to the way I was reading it at first, but then I realized that #6 refers to use and not distribution. So I think (although, IANAL) that #6 is not about dealing with the commercial sales aspect. I think this is more for the kind of things like "You can use this software for anything except developing military weapons" or that sort of clause that you sometimes see.

#1 OTOH deals with "selling or giving away the software as a component of an aggregate software distribution containing programs from several different sources." This would seem to be the clause that would be violated by a "you can't sell this commercially" clause. Although, looking at it, I just realized that somebody could argue that due to the use of the phrase "component of an aggregate software distribution", that this actually isn't violated by a restriction on selling the software alone! I'm pretty sure that's not the way that was ever intended to be interpreted though, and that an aggregate can include as few as 1 components. Otherwise it would be silly, because you could always then in turn create an "aggregate" by adding some arbitrary files of your own.
Yes, this is true, I use my on-board Intel graphics card for my host, and my Nvidia card for my guest operating system.
The biggest "homerun" case for LiveView is all of the forms where you'd typically do server side rendering then add a bit of JavaScript for the few dynamic pieces you need. Think about what you might typically see in a Ruby on Rails app. Lots of Ruby generating the views, a bit of JavaScript for client-side whatever.

LiveView can be used for way more than that, but I think replacing "glue" JavaScript is the most slam-dunk case.
Thanks for your point on the blockquotes, I've updated my comment.
They were working with code that already pretended to be in protected mode anyway (with the exception of locking and unlocking blocks of memory... which was unnecessary with a hardware MMU.)

Even saying that, it was amazing at the time to run essentially unmodified 'real mode' binaries in protected mode. (There was a tool that would take an existing binary and set the 'okay to run in protected mode' flag.)

This looks like a cool library, but I have a question about the newscatcher API. How does the licensing work for the content? Seems odd (but great) that I can just read the news in my terminal from NYT but not pay a subscription or see ads. I read in some of the comments it's an RSS feed, is that freely available all the time? Surely even the RSS feed is protected with copyright and has restrictions on republishing?

If that's not the case, the larger implication here that the news is free if it's in a format that is not as widely used (RSS) compared to what the mass populous uses (mobile browsers/app).

Cool library, thanks for sharing!
We could and unless something drastically changes in the way the economy is structured that's going to come in the form of giving them money (or goods bought with money) from taxes paid by the working population... As the ratio increases that requires more support from each working person.
First paragraph of conclusion:

"If you're looking for raw, unbridled performance it's hard to argue against a properly-tuned pool of ZFS mirrors. RAID10 is the fastest per-disk conventional RAID topology in all metrics, and ZFS mirrors beat it resoundingly—sometimes by an order of magnitude—in every category tested, with the sole exception of 4KiB uncached reads."

However, test rig is using rusty spindles and is generally very low-fi. There's no hardware RAID controller and only SAS 6G 7200rpm 12TB Seawolfs are used. I'd hardly call this a relevant test of ZFS vs. every other RAID in that sense. A comparison rig with a RAID controller and some tiered storage with DRAM cache etc would be a little more fair.

The other big issue IMO is that every scenario one would consider high-performance storage (cloud architecture, HPC, specialized heavy write DB apps, to name a few), Linux is probably running with an app stack heavily invested in some distro of it, which does not have native drivers for it (ZFS) due to Oracle's inherited licensing from Sun which is not GPL.

FreeBSD is the next obvious choice since its ZFS implementation supposedly kicks ass but there are significant development and architecture issues there.

Doing storage (or any) performance metrics is kind of a black art and this is like a cute dalliance with some SOHO stack you'd find at your mom's local accounting firm.

Still, I love ZFS and the BSDs but I think this article... well, sucks.

It does, but in dynamically typed languages it's obviously less capable.

To deal with this one could of course have a static type system instead, but that necessitates learning the DSL behind it and its idioms - the lack of which is the main appeal of dynamic typing to begin with.

That proof is utter nonsense.

Sure Nintendo might have just downloaded the rom, but they may have:

1) just concatenated the prg and chr roms and added an iNES header so they could validate in third party emulators. (Likely extra helpful for games where they were developing anti-epilepsy patches, since third party emulators have some really nice debugging tools.)

or

2) Used a third party cart dumper that adds the iNES header, because it was faster and easier than setting up a 3.5 inch floppy drive to try read the original rom from the archive. (And much faster than retyping in hex dump printout from the archive).
Good answer, thanks!

Of course there are lots of problem with academic culture, like overemphasis on maximizing citation count. But the setup you describe will also require some form of simple metric to track progress- to ensure that 25k isn't going down the drain.

What about cyber capabilities?

For a hot war, China seems underequipped, but this doesn't seem the most relevant anyways.

Cyber and proxy war-like capabilities seem more important in this day and age. From what I can tell China leads in cyber capabilities versus the US. And they've been able to expand in the South China Sea without much retaliation so far, so maybe they're even doing alright on the other.
