Thank you antirez!

I started using Redis around 2010 and I learned to appreciate so many things from you along the way:

* Data structures are fun.

* In-memory is fast and can be safe!

* Append-only logs are awesome.

* Databases can be more than MySQL.

* Complexity analysis is worth making clear in the documentation.

* Hybrid L1 cache-friendly data structures beat complexity analysis for small data.

* There are only so many hours you can work in a day.

* It's cool to sit by the pool.

* It's cool to have a screen name.

* Above all, code is poetry, not dependencies.
My guess is that on a per distance basis, walking is more dangerous because of pedestrian-car collisions (aka getting run over).

I think part of the dissonance is that intuitively I tend to compare on a time basis. I guess it depends on whether one is traveling to a destination (constant distance) or traveling for recreation (constant time).

"Yubikey with GPG/PIV for SSH"

There's no need to mess around with the GPG side of the Yubikey to get SSH working. Just the "plain" side of the Yubikey will work (which is great on a Mac because all you need is the basic dylibs - downloadable from Yubi and easily mv/cp installable in the relevant lib dir - rather than needing to mess around installing gpg). Added bonus is you enforce touch for key usage.
Can you provide some hard examples to compare the two?

Why would Craig (falsely) claim to own not-Satoshi addresses, instead of claiming Satoshi addresses that are less likely to be used (due to exposure risk)?
I used to see lots of people question the merits of copy/paste when iOS didn't have it, because iOS didn't have it. When iOS finally got it, I thought the matter settled. The people who previously dismissed the feature now considered it the best Apple innovation since sliced bread (or perhaps the multi-buttoned computer mouse.)

Do you never copy/paste text within the same document? How do you rearrange sentences, paragraphs, etc? Highlight-and-drag is cumbersome in long documents and is really an implementation of cut/paste, not copy/paste.
Anecdote, but I once ran a blog for many years. Country breakdown for traffic was roughly 30% China, 30% Russia, and 30% US. Almost 100% of requests out of China and Russia were hacking attempts, I assume mostly by bots. They've earned a reputation and there's nothing wrong pointing it out. If you operate a website, unless China and Russia are part of your market/audience, I'd suggest blocking them altogether.
You don't know that about "most people". Most people will deliberately pirate content given the chance.
Is this instead of typing a password to unlock the ssh key?
I think it does both, but I'm not familiar with what Geekbench 5 actually does and whether it can be fully translated ahead of time. Regardless the translation doesn’t seem to be able to make use of both sets of cores.
I'm currently reading 1918 by John Barry. People absolutely did not take the pandemic in stride. In fact, they "adapted their individual behavior" far more than people are doing today, because they were terrified. A large percentage of people simply stopped showing up for work, even in defense-related businesses during a world war. Social life "more or less" came to a halt, because people were afraid of each other. As for government actions, there were mask mandates, closures of businesses in some areas, and towns that posted armed guards at the borders to keep outsiders away.

My beef is with the person who installs a spy camera in my shower, not with the person who didn't expect someone to install a spy camera in my shower. Only one of those people actually installed a spy camera in my shower.
An important thing about USSR, which people often forget about, is there was no free movement.

Oversimplifying things a bit, you could only relocate when you're changing jobs and your new employer must have a special permission to hire workers from outside their region.

Very similar to H1B quotas.
What's Coming in TypeScript 4
I get your point, but the Open Source Hardware Association probably does not have much influence over more important issues.

I don't think this is so much of them saying "look at us we fixed it!" as much as it is them saying "we're taking responsibility for the domain over which we have power".

The main differentiation (and risk) with BDFL projects is having (or not) a very competent (like one percenter) BDFL.

The structure of a committee project doesn't make it better or worse than BDFL. It just makes it more average. Any greatness present is toned down. And substandardness is brought up.

This also main reason the "led by greatness" BDFL projects are better than the committee run ones and the "led by less than great" BDFL projects "smoke out". The committee's tend towards the middle of the bell curve, BDFL's are all over the place.
The buses are often just American school buses which have been bought second or third hand, painted garishly, and reused.
What code are you referring to? Hyperapp has clear separation of presentation, logic, and side-effects. Of course, developers can choose to keep that a clean and distinct separation, or let a bunch of code inter-mingle.
It should work that way now :-). Thanks for suggestion.
For a sufficiently large sub there is no time for power tripping. Only an endless queue of spam and vitirol

Should the format of these types of headlines be:

Or should it be:

* Speaker: Some Important Statement

Is one more 'proper' than the other?

We don't proactively search for new services or re-review those listed to make sure the information is still up to date[1].. but we do update the page if we hear about new ot changed services through other channels. So, if you or anyone else are aware of particular services that are notable for their flexibility in payment providers, please let me know and I'll add them to the page.

That said, I would not be surprised if none exist. The more payment processors you support, the harder it is to avoid handling the money directly, which means more legal hurdles (regulations, liability); the simpler alternative (that snowdrift.coop is currently pursuing, for those practical reasons, although it is limiting in some respects) is to coordinate donations though other platforms.

[1]: Aside, I was trying to write this sentence in the form "re-review the information for [up-to-date-ness]", but couldn't think of the right word. "Accuracy" is close, but doesn't capture the element of time. Any ideas?

It works excellent as a message bus, though. And you can add HSET/HDEL to your list as the fourth way.
White supremacy does not thrive in America. That is a fantasy.

I'd love to link you to a Scott Alexander essay at this point which examined that very question and concluded, based on evidence and data, that there might be a few thousand genuine white supremacists in America. But of course he deleted his blog so I can't.

This is why so many people are arguing with you. The statements by the left and the observable reality are so out of whack it's clear it's a "dog whistle", as they like to say. The revolutionary left are using the word white to mean something quite different to its normal definition. It seems rather to be used to mean "anyone who isn't black" or more perniciously, "anyone conservative". Alexander had a great essay on this redefinition of whiteness as well, but alas ...
I've been riding out the quarantine in a less populated area, and I am surrounded by trucks so tall that the driver can't even see the roof of my car if I am stopped next to them at a light. It's already too late to avoid defection -- if I stay here for good, I will have to get a taller car just so other drivers can see me and so I can see through the windows of parked cars when turning.

> The benchmark is measuring the performance of Geekbench running in Rosetta, which is the emulation layer allowing x86_64 code to run under Apple’s ARM chip

According to Apple it's not an emulation layer at all, though.

They themselves call it "translation technology" [1] and the term "emulation" is nowhere to be found.

I'm not sure why tech outlets insist on calling it an emulation layer, was it called that in the WWDC presentation?

Why should that mean its not nefarious? Just because other apps are doing underhand privacy invasion doesn't make it any better - they are all scum!

Everyone is talking about TikTok because the video that went viral showed TikTok.
I’m sure you could come up with an application for it, but if you want audio output at some point, half-float sounds like quite a challenge.

- The -66dB noise floor is pretty bad, and it accumulates at every step.

- 11 bits is probably not enough for filter coefficients. So your filters would likely be running with single precision floats, at least. Even low-cost DSP chips tend to give you a big chunk of bits for your filters.

- Naïve oscillator designs would accumulate a lot of error. Back of the envelope calculation, if you wanted an oscillator at C4, you’d likely be around 1/4 tone sharp or flat unless you ran the oscillator at higher precision.

I’m definitely of the mind that bit depth is overrated in music. 16 bits is great-for mastered music and simple tweaks. By contrast, from my experiences writing DSP code, it often makes your code simpler and faster to run at higher depths and sample rates, and then convert to e.g. 16 bit as the very last step. The problem is that squeezing good output from low precision or low sample rates requires more complicated and slower algorithms.
> 3. I often run with lots of tabs. Although Firefox lets you make tabs smaller, it's default method of "scrolling" tabs isn't as nice as chrome infinite method.

At a certain point Chrome will just disappear your tabs. They'll be loaded in the browser - there's just no way to access them. Scrolling in Firefox (especially with a mousewheel) just feels so natural and makes dealing with large amounts of tabs so much easier almost all of the time (with a potential exception right after Firefox starts scrolling tabs, but they're all visible on Chrome - but that can still be hit or miss).
That sounds like it was straight up underdesigned. The amount of force in an accident is way higher than a human can normally exert, so designing only for what a human can exert means you were doomed to fail in the accident scenario. The designer forgot to consider the edge cases.
Your initial post about Redis is one of the first things I remember seeing when I started reading Hacker News. The great thing about Redis to me was that it was extremely clear what it did and what the use cases were, and I always appreciated how you talked about it in such a simple, practical way.

Thank you for Redis, and I hope you can relax and have some fun with whatever is next!
Says who? The link you posted is one of many calling out Apple for their poor response.

I lived across the street from their Brooklyn store from when it opened in 2018 to when it closed last winter (in anticipation of "relaunching" for the new glasses they were planning this year).

They rented an expensive glassy corner storefront ($50k/month I heard at the time) and built it out to a very high standard, but there was never anyone inside shopping. The store employees just stood around looking at their phones all day looking super bored.

I also found it bizarre that they didn't seem to be making any effort to use the space as a marketing tool beyond it's mere presence...I anticipated when they opened that there would be VIP/media/influencer events on a regular basis, but they seemingly just opened in the mornings and closed at night. Having been involved in opening some retail stores, "if you build it they will come" was certainly never part of our strategy.

There never seemed to be any attempt to attract customers or make the store more inviting at all...they didn't even have a listing on Google Maps for months after they opened. Seeing this stagnant shop every single day I spent a lot of time thinking about what must be going on inside this outwardly "promising startup" to make such an investment only to let it languish. Seems like my suspicions weren't misplaced!
I would imagine that it’s not a typo. In a car you have a big shell around you to protect against the environment. While walking or cycling you’re far more prone to be injured by the world - a branch could fall on you, a car could hit you, another person could hit you, you could trip, slip or lose balance, etc.

Being inside a big metal shell that can’t fall over and with active safety measures is a great place to be, risk-wise.
I have a pair that I hadn't picked up for a year before two weeks ago when I charged, updated, and tried them out again to see if anything had changed.

The interface is roughly 6 lines of white on transparent text/menus/icons, with some "apps" occasionally being more graphical and having larger graphics/arrows. The display is basically a bunch of low power lasers being projected onto a weird thing embedded in the glass of the right lens and getting reflected into your eye. If alignment was wrong it couldn't do anything. It felt more like those vector CRT displays like from an old arcade game, where instead of pixels of varying intensity in a grid there is an electron beam just drawing lines and simple shapes.

There was definitely no ability to project a screen. It was not like google glass at all.

Platform-wise, it was more like an imaginary gen-0.5 smartwatch that was locked into a handful of baked in apps and notifications. It had to be tethered to your phone to work. It could only integrate with select apps and services: Spotify for music, Alexa for a voice assistant, gcal for calendar. I'm probably missing some.

It had some morning glance sort of thing that showed you your commute and the weather and maybe some news?

It had it's own walking navigation system that worked... okay. Granted I tried that out pretty shortly after that feature launched, and only used in Dublin when I was on a trip where I would actually be walking a fair bit. It never inspired confidence that it would notify me properly of a turn, and I tend to not really need directions shown to me all the time anyways, so I stopped bothering after using it twice.

Notifications was about the only thing I got out of it when I was using it, and it was not the best experience. The time between knowing I got a notification and it showing me was long enough that I never got over the muscle memory of either pulling out my phone or looking at my pebble (if I was wearing it) when I felt the vibrarion from either.

That brings me to the hardest part for me, the lack of confidence in the projection. When I pressed on the ring controller to activate it, or heard a sound indicating something should be on screen, I couldn't be sure that it wasn't just being slow or if it was somehow misaligned. It got misaligned often, and when it's not in just the right alignment with your eye the display is not visible. I eventually got some of those silicone things you put on stems to hold glasses on your face properly and even then they could still get out of alignment.

EDIT: totally forgot, a cool part was how you contorlled it, with a ring that had a little 5way joystick on it. This would have been cool if it was more responsive, but it suffered from the general interface sluggishness that did not inspire confidence.
It seems like a bit of a contrived example. If I wanted to outfit a house, I could easily go down to the local appliance store (a small one, maybe a couple thousand square feet of retail space), and have something delivered in a couple hours. There are a number of random furniture stores in town that carry a variety of items nothing like the big box stores. And if I did want to go to a big box store, like Home Depot, I could just rent their truck for the afternoon. If I needed to hire some help, that's pretty trivial too.

Very nice, but: what am I looking at? A probability density? And what do the control represent? Some sort of energy level? An isosurface of the modulus of the wave function? If so what does the number mean from an intuitive perspective?
Being "caught" reading the clipboard is not an indictment that you are doing something wrong. It's very good that it is no longer occurring invisibly in the background, but so far what we have seen appears to be frivolous usage rather than malicious.
Uncheck "Use smooth scrolling" in preferences to see if that makes a difference to your scrolling experience. FWIW, I have "Use autoscrolling" checked; most, if not all, websites scroll fine on my MacBook Pro and iMac. I cannot speak to the scrolling behavior on Windows.
It is not authors doing the suing here. It is the big four publishers. All the demonising of authors over this has gotten out of hand and should just stop.

That said, please explain[] just how* an author "can still make a living" without some form of copy-protection. And please refrain from the "signing tours", "selling merch", "live readings" nonsense. Writers in particular (but the visual arts, too) simply don't, on the whole, have the skills, inclination or desire to engage in much of that. The entire reason for engaging with the conventional publishing industry is to relieve an author of the tedious burden of sourcing artwork, arranging print and distribution, marketing and sales, leaving them free to write more stories -- what they do best. Self-pub can work for some writers, but they're the ones willing to sacrifice precious writing-time time on all those peripheral activities.

Bear in mind that the overwhelming majority of writers are writing in snatched hours in the early mornings/evening, over and above a "day job" to pay the rent and put food on the table. There's not a lot of time left over in a day to also become an editor/marketer/project manager.

eta [*]: and I genuinely mean: Just HOW should public policy look in order to provide some form of artistic protection for creators? It's easy to sit around and say "copyright is broken" (and I'd largely agree!) It's less easy to say what it might/ought become.
I thought same. I fought for roll out in time, velocity and quality. Now I'm burned out. PM had his own agenda - introduced a men who, he was like 1/10x developer on senior position, promised to fire in a few month, have not happened in a year and a half, this destroyed velocity and as tech lead I was blamed. I stayed so long because our customers were awesome, could not leave them.

Managers are not friends. The moment I've said I'm leaving I become nothing. Time to learn.
Cheapness of labor is not necessary for the system the author is describing to work (although it's probably a factor in how that system is able to be the present equilibrium). The system in Quito may be less efficient (i.e. there may be waste, like extra guys with trucks waiting for customers), but it's also less efficient at concentrating capital. Whether wages are "low" depends on the ratio of those inefficiencies. I can imagine a world where the latter "inefficiency" is maintained as the waste is reduced and wages rise. It would require "gig economy" coordination tools to match capacity to demand efficiently, but the market tech would need to lack power over the workers, whether because of competition or regulation.
EVE is more about not trusting.

And people would start losing trust in the network if this was happening, thus the value of the currency would start dropping, thus all the network participants including the miners would be in a losing position in the long run, which is not what you are looking for after you have invested money in the mining equipment and the whole operation.

That's why the total "hash rate" (the computational effort spent by all the participating miners) is in direct relation to the perceived value of the currency.
So I'm on macOS using Safari for web browsing, chrome for work (web app + backend). I'm on the younger side so chrome has been omnipresent. I do not mean to understate the importance of privacy in the modern web, so don't misunderstand my question. Why would someone, as a developer and a user, want to use Firefox over Safari (mostly) and Chrome (for work).
Matcha – Simple P2P crypto trading for everyone
Gentoo prefix can run on a wide variety of operating systems and distributions. It needs a few updates to work around the recent changes in macos permissioning, but if it can find a familiar shell it will more or less work as expected.

I think part of the above comment is expressing frustration about the fact that part of the reason for the lack of wide portability of these programs is precisely because people say "oh they can't do x" or "this is operating system specific" and taking it as axiomatic rather than realizing that with a bit of engineering time and effort they can be extended to work on other systems. This especially since there is pretty much no language that is used entirely by itself without dependencies on another at some point in time. If your language has a ffi, then you need a real package manager to accompany it.

It's a shame. The pedestrians will have to find a way to get taller too.
Might have something to do with the size of your signature (I think that's what they call it in military terms).

Consider a spherical traveler following a certain path in a field of randomly moving projectiles. The chances of being hit with one depends on path length, your own size, and how long you stay on the field.

Seriousness of the hit depends on your durability and speeds involved.

Maybe pedestrians just spend a lot of time exposed (assuming they have to cover similar distance) and bikers are extra fragile.
