Ask HN: Any popular sites where users actively use the WordPress comment system?
It seems the conversation on the web has switched completely to aggregators like HN and Reddit these days.

I wonder if anybody here runs (or knows) popular websites built with WordPress where users acively comment on the articles using the native comment function?
from what I understand being "embodied" doesn't necessarily imply movement, but I am afraid even I do not understand it fully to say a computer isn't and an animal is.
Not the OP but electrical tape is a lot thicker than 0.1mm. Any branded electrical tape ranges from 0.15mm to 0.25mm or more for speciality tapes.
Sure, I was only trying to distinguish cement dust from concrete dust, the OP mentioned concrete dust, not cement, and he mentioned it being "waste":

>Just try adding a bunch of concrete dust to your basil plant in the window sill, see what happens. Most likely this will be the source, as concrete waste is a huge issue in most population

About aggregation, there are usually big differences between the different kinds of cement, modern Portland cements tend to end hydration (and thus hardening) within months, whilst good ol' Pozzolanic went on for years.

But I wouldn't be surprised if such a massive pour as a dam would go on hardening for many years.
Apparently guile is clearly the strongest character in the game, that makes some sense... but apparently at high level Dhalsim is the second strongest by consensus.

Now that's a surprise!
Yeah also many people have been duplexing over the years, upstreaming on 2m and downstreaming on 70cm for example. That is allowed as long as you mention your call every few minutes.
No they can not. I put my ballot in a locked box filled with other ballots. It's not like I hand my ballot to a person and ask them to please record my vote.
While an interesting problem to try and solve (in theory, not in practice!), one has to be very much aware of where those 11 votes had to be injected for the “hack” to work.

You basically need to have a somewhat precise picture of the proportionality before you could do it I a non-obvious way (= small margin victory).

While polling gives you something close to that, I don’t believe that it’s precise enough.
Ask HN: Self-hosted lightweight wiki engine suggestions? (MoinMoin alternative)
I have quite a dilemma: since 2008 I've been running a personal MoinMoin wiki instance, which I've used (up until 2015-2018) for everything from notes, bookmarks, knowledgebase, publishing, presentations, projects, basically almost everything involving transcribing thoughts into words and research; however since 2015-2018 I've transitioned away from it to a custom Bash script that just ties together `dmenu` / `rofi` with `howl` / `sublime` and streamlined my workflow further (although dropping any wiki syntax and web integration); unfortunately by switching to a "local" workflow, none of my snippets and other useful links were "shareable", thus I thought to revisit the wiki engine landscape of 2020 and see what options are out there.

And unfortunately I can't quite find a suitable MoinMoin replacement, so I thought I'll ask the HN community for advice. [See my comment bellow for what I'm searching for.]

As a sidenote, I was quite disappointed, as it seems that wikis have (except for a few notable cases like GitHub or Wikipedia) have been largely replaced by Wordpress clones...

Thanks for all the feedback!
I did a bit of digging around to see some data around TLDs and one of the top hits seems to be Hosting Tribunal[0]. Some interesting stats :

The top 4 gTLDs seem to be .com, .org, .net, .co.
dot com clearly won't make the cut for you but have you considered .net?

Interestingly, [1] led to https://ntldstats.com and this has a nicer graph based data. I found that .xyz has a 9.3% market share overall which is interesting as well.

I don't understand what "LEM is false" means. What are your starting assumptions that lead to the "LEM is false" conclusion? You can use/assume LEM in your system or not, most mathematicans assume LEM (without even thinking about it).
Maybe you're remembering Theo's comments about Rust in OpenBSD?

That's why you use a plugin that integrates ag or ripgrep into your editor so that you can see the context in your editor as you search.
I am old already! I’m just not nasty :)
I strongly disagree. You have access to a lot of API and even more thanks to project Fugu. We have Web Assembly (WASM), WebGL 2 (soon WebGPU), etc. Check out this article: https://www.davrous.com/2019/10/18/myth-busting-pwas-the-new...
No, I have the flexibility, and I have chosen to work for one client. This new unforeseen interpretation of my business contracts (are you even aware of the ramifications for my financial planning, insurance, etc?) is forcing me into things I don't want to do nor my client is interested in, thus making me less flexible, and forces me to pay for things I am absolutely not interested in.
[OP: Bellow I'm describing what I'm searching for in a lightweight wiki engine, suitable for replacing MoinMoin.]

Now I know that there are many wiki engines, from dokuwiki and MediaWiki up to Bookstack and Wiki.js, however none of them fulfill the following requirements:

* first and foremost it has to use the file system to store the page content; one file per page (or per page history if it supports revisions); this excludes databases, including embedded ones like SQLite or the like; (basically I want to be able to cobbler together `find`, `grep` and `sed` to extract what I'm searching for if I want;)

* secondly it has to be lightweight enough so I can run it on my laptop; thus fiddling with NGinx and Apache is sub-optimal, as is having another 20-worker-process behemoth (I have enough Electron-ware already)... (for context, in my previous MoinMoin setup, I actually had two instances running, one on a public server and one on my laptop, and I've synchronized the files between them;)

* if possible it should come in a single binary (e.g. Go, Rust or C/C++), or at least be self contained (e.g. virtual environment); also NodeJS is out of the question just because I don't believe I'll be able to deploy it 5 years from now when the project is dead... (and no, I don't want to run a cluster of containers or even a single VM for my wiki... it's a wiki after all, not a web-scale search-engine with NLP built into it...)

* the UI shouldn't be more complex than it needs, thus a large text area for editing the page (without an WYSIWYG editor), lacking syntax highlighting, and not integrating with Jupyter Notebook are actually a plus; :)

* support for ACL's (for keeping sensitive pages private) would be a plus; (MoinMoin had the best ACL solution from all the wiki's I've seen so far;)

* (obviously, it must be open-source;)

So in the end why not just go with MoinMoin? Because I have the feeling the project is dead, and the stable version (1.9) seems to support only Python 2.7, which has just been EOL-ed and I believe it will slowly start to phase out from distributions repositories... Thus I wanted to see if there are alternatives...
No argument against the one code file thing because I think it’s a great idea. But a quick comment on the JetBrains suite:

With the right plugins Intellij Ultimate is also for everything (just like Vim uses language plugins) and then you get all the benefits of the modern IDE. Intellisense, search, replace, refactor, find usage, type inference, etc

I’m not saying vim cannot do this but Intellij is now my preference for everything and I don’t feel the need for merging everything in one file for analysis because I can jump around to definitions/usages easily.
> The thing is the kernel is kinda hurting for maintainers

Source? AFAIK the kernel is probably one of the most, if not the most, well-funded and maintained open source projects.
I for one do not want to touch Rust more than I have to.
Lots of comments with tips on “how”, but your last paragraph makes it sound like your are looking for a “who”.

I’ve heard good things about https://www.duckbillgroup.com/
The viruses get trapped in the filter and burned up there by the 250 °C, so no need to heat up the air to 65°C.
The corollary to this is, "If there aren't tests, start by writing some unit tests on your own that exercise the library's functionality."
Modes, Medians and Means: A Unifying Perspective (2013)
More often than not, look at the code directly in case there's other way. Sometimes there are comments in the code that point to better understanding, if you are lucky.
If the code has tests, I would start by looking at those tests.

If it has no tests, then I would slowly try to build tests to document the functionality that I need. In your case being Angular that might be having simple html pages with the smallest module that you need.

How to find things? If you're on Windows try AstroGrep http://astrogrep.sourceforge.net/ to quickly search and jump around in the code or in any system I use VS Code for a similar functionality. Also learn to use command line find/grep.

The book "Working Effectively with Legacy Code" also helped me be more comfortable navigating and changing large code bases, in a long term view I recommend this book to every developer https://www.amazon.co.uk/Working-Effectively-Legacy-Michael-...

Lastly, I would raise this because the company might not be aware they are buying a low quality framework that maybe ticks all the boxes in the contract but is in effect impossible to use by their current developers (you), it might be there's other people with more experience in said niche that might be able to help. In the private community maybe some people would be able to accept a short contract to help train you.
This 100%. I'm French, and I always volunteer to count votes after the ballots. Honestly the system is really robust, it's probably very very hard to cheat without being noticed, everything is done twice, with everyone being able to watch the whole process. No way we can have something even close in term of confidence with something digital.

If we really want to use new technologies to make things even safer, we could film and broadcast everything so anyone could check that there was no cheating (and I assume some people would record it so we could check also after the fact)
Not aware of any "easy" sale places. Best be is just take a huge hit on the price & it'll move fast. That also assumes it's relatively modern gear.

Personally I go through a lot of gaming hardware. Which means GPU gets outdated but CPU/RAM is still solid. So that makes for a good home server. Or I pass it on to family - a old gaming rig makes for a superb facebook machine.
> Imposter syndrome such a popular thing to belive in because actually most people really do suck at their jobs.

The question then is whether there's a correlation between professional confidence and job performance.

There's also apparently a beer by the same name, from 1925.
Rust integrates easily with C because it's explicitly designed to fall back to the C ABI for external linkage. Whereas writing C++ with any C++-specific features (hence, any "Modern", guidelines-compliant C++ at all) brings its own bespoke ABI into the picture, that's supposed to be stable but really is not and that one can't easily interoperate with from C. That's a huge non-starter in kernel dev.
His attitude towards C++ also changed when using it for his side project [1].

Initially he started with C and GTK+ and later migrated to C++ and QT Framework.

That's was the entire idea of globalized manufacturing for the past fifty years.

Africa however will be much more difficult as a whole. But there are individual countries that will maybe be able to benefit from it some day.

For now, it's more lucrative in most cases to "receive aid" instead of "produce things". In that sense, "aid" has similar effects as natural recourses have.
I have no idea, but I would imagine if the LED is burned out the camera would not work.
Where did I say or even indicate that?????
None of this really seems to be just COBOL's fault.

COBOL is a compiled language, so once compiled into machine language it doesn't matter as long as it runs.

I would be looking more at what hardware its on which is probably some Big Iron running system/360 that has a 2 week turnaround to add some extra memory. The code probably runs just fine, it's the hardware support cost and turnaround time that will be the constraint.
It is very unlikely that anyone is going to give you a good advice with so little information about your cost structure. There is great people here who can provide invaluable insights about your costs but they need to have more information.

We use a lot of GPU intensive models and 80% of revenue goes into AWS, doesn't mean that your AWS cost is mostly GPU. It should mean that, but who knows. Tell us how is your AWS infrastructure, what instances do you have, how much do they cost to you, etc. Because with your information about the costs the best advice you can get is to not use AWS neither GPU-intensive ML models.

I don't think this is all that different from Dropbox. For years, Dropbox was able to outperform all the big players who tried to compete because their core sync technology was rock-solid.

Still to this day, I find my ICloud sync folders can be fairly unreliable (files will take a mysteriously long time to appear once in a while) - I've never had anything like that sort of an issue with Dropbox (although I haven't used it in a while).
This "once you learn the complicated non intuitive user interface it becomes good" mentality is the reason why a lot of people don't like Linux (in my opinion).
The whole Linux world just has such a poor UI/UX design that you don't want to interact with it in the first place - not all but most of it anyways.
Lots of people in here mentioning Reserved Instances, so it's worth mentioning Reserved AI (https://www.reserved.ai/).

We're customers and have been very happy with them, it was super quick to get set up and saves us a big chunk.
Sure, that's fine. Personally, I hate dealing with vim plugin nonsense, and especially with getting vim environments working on a remote server inside tmux. But whatever works.
Not really, both in Rust and in C++ the C-compatible parts have to be marked explicitly as extern "C". Even the syntax is the same.
I would argue that trying to describe our physical world and reality has only one "axiom" which is: your description has to be consistent with our observations of the world. Mathematics doesn't have this limitation so I don't think your example is valid. If you don't like LEM, fine, maybe there is something interesting in systems without LEM, but most math is done with LEM. I don't think is a matter of "right" and "wrong".
Not just more elitist, also a lot more capable of course. With 4W FM on 11m you're not going to make it across the world (unless in exceptional conditions).

But I agree this was never the intention of the license.
I remember the first time I watched a video of the Super Nintendo version (in a promotional VHS tape that came with a videogames magazine), I was blown away, it looked just like the arcade!

I also remember it costing more than other SNES games, it was almost half as much as the console.
Can you explain what ideological warfare is according to the rules please? And how my comment is ideological warfare but not the people complaining about cancel culture?
> Rust has most of the same properties which prevent C++'s inclusion in-tree

It does but it also has some advantages that C++ does not have.
When I've been using open source libraries without significant docs I've mostly benefitted from actually reading the code. Assuming you have the source. This can be incredibly varying in complexity. I've found a large Elixir codebase, as a functional paradigm easier to grasp compared to a single library in heavy OOP style in Python. Python not enforcing much structure and this particular library doing a lot of inheritance which complicates the state and modelling in my head a lot.
So it varies a lot per code base and experience. But if you have the code, that's what I'd use.
Combine HEPA with UV light (at least the type that is the most effective at destroying the coronavirus) and as long as it can hold the virus long enough exposed to that range, it's probably good enough. Question is, would the UV light somewhat damage the HEPA filter over time?
Thanks!

I remember in years gone by, there was a (Sun?) keyboard with extra keys down the left with names like cut, copy, paste, insert, close and so on. I'm half tempted to buy one of those gaming keyboards with programmable macro keys and map one of them to this "paste as plain text" sequence.
Yeah, that's valid. `idea .` seemed to work occasionally back when I tried. But what I ran into was, you often want to install specific plugins for JS, and specific plugins for Python, etc. On my laptop, the result was that IDEA started taking like ... 4 minutes to fully load a codebase. So I just gave up.

But IntelliJ is wonderful in general. Maybe others will have more luck.
...where does the fertiliser come from?

Currently, there's a lot of fossil fuels involved.
> ”the light doesn't prevent the camera from turning on, it merely notifies you that the camera is on.”

No, but the OS prevents the camera from turning on without permission from the user.

(There have been bugs/compromises to this in the past, but at the browser level - you still had to give camera permission to the browser)

Besides, if you’ve got some compromised or surreptitious software on your MacBook trying to secretly take photos, you probably have much bigger security problems to worry about than just what it can see through the camera.
I use gaffer's tape. Sufficiently (for my standards) unlikely to fall off, and the better quality stuff is designed not to leave residue.
You already found one yourself: if the LED is broken, you will notice at some point when it is too late.
I got my ham license at 16, later used it at work extensively (non-commercial, research projects), but mostly set it aside in 2016 due to the incessant discussion of hateful politics on the local 2m band. I upgraded to general but my HF setup is portable (no permanent antenna) so it’s harder to hop on, but I hope those bands are less bigoted, or at least, the bigots keep to themselves.
Why does general AI have to be like human intelligence?

Free will might have something to do with it as well. Seld awareness is the basis of our desire to find our place in the world and the meaning of reality relative to self. This desire might be a core driver of human intelligence, the intial lack of purpose,self awareness and the need to survive by solving arbitrary problems is important as well.

Computers may not live in the real world but a virtual world of games, coupled with self aware program that trains subprograms to adopt and solve solutions to survive might be an interesting approach.
I was in the same boat and this is good advice!

I stopped using gpu's, "Vectorized inference isn’t bad at all!". This soo much, I was blinded with gpu speed, using tensorflow builds with avx optimization is actually pretty fast.

My discovery:

+ Stop expensive GPU's for inference and switch to avx optimized tensorflow builds.

+ Cleaned up the inference pipeline and reduced complexity.

+ Buying compute instance for a year or more provides a discount.

- I never got pruning to work without a significant loss increase.

- Tried spot instances with gpu's that are cheaper. Random kills and spinning up new instances took too long loading my code. The discount is a lot, but I couldn't reliable get it up. Users where getting more timeouts. I bailed and just used cpu inference. The gpu was being underutilized, using cpu only increased the inference to around 2-3 seconds. With the price trade off it was a more simpel,cheaper and easier solution.
Compared to innovation in radios for commercial telecom microwave and millimeter wave radios (2.4 all the way up to 86 GHz), ham radio is moribund.

There's a whole lot more on the ground real world innovation happening in people building WISPs in very rural, challenging locations with no pre-existing telecom services (except by two-way satellite) than there is happening in ham radio.
Mine works fine.

If Amazon discontinues, I'll want a major refund. That's how I read eBooks. Without a big screen, textbooks are useless.
Whether Vietnam (to use your example) is communist is irrelevant, in the same way it is in fact that China is nominally communist.

The 'issue' is that China is a big country so can develop to become more powerful than the US and Europe. Vietnam cannot so is not a threat and can be bullied into submission if necessary.

In fact the US is courting Vietnam for this reason and as a regional opponent to China. Clearly the political regime is not important.

You could more easily swap out the entire screen assembly with a ‘compromised’ version.

Or as other poster mentioned, just swap whole units.

Not, not really. I mean, it was a really good port, but if you compare it side by side you can clearly see it's not at the same level:

Sprites are bigger on the arcade version, and there's higher resolution overall as well.
r/amateurradio & Han Radio Crash Course on YouTube are about the only thing that keeps me interested in HAM; everything else is octogenarians with Angelfire-esq websites.

For myself, late 30’s IT profesional, I’ve found the European Twitter scene of Satnogs, Amateur TV, QO-100, and microwave comms much more interesting than anything that’s come out of the LF OMs in the states. Hell, I saw a French person create a high speed VHF/UHF system that’s technically illegal in the US due to regulations/encryption.

What I have seen from Reddit is there’s a lot of “listener” trans operators and one huge roadblock is the FCC open database of full names and addresses, past and present. Even myself, I almost never give out my call sign online since it has my government name and home addresses, even If I’ve updated to a PO Box it still has historical info. I can only imagine what it’s like for a LGBTQ person in the Midwest calling CQ and being deadnamed, or worse in return.

In my ideal world Amateur Radio would be packed to the gills by people of all stripes using it as free communication for ad-hoc cell phone networks, free WiFi/internet, and DIY wireless systems. I know there’s limitations but politically I want it to become available and free for everyone against the oppression of paying for communications.
I once bought some Californian peaches (I live in NZ). They were very large, good looking, and absolutely tasteless. Watery with only vague hints of peach flavour.
What do they do? And why are they unique or special?
Even though I am very well acquainted with Japanese the anglicised "rye-yoo" "hadooken" and "shore-yoo-ken" are deeply ingrained in me from all those childhood times spend playing sf2.

My favourite was trying to translate whatever they say on that sound engine into "tatsumaki senpuu kyaku". To this day I still can't hear it
I resigned from Dropbox recently because they don't have a subscription that is right for me (I'm not a data hoarder who needs 1TB of synced space, I just need 50 or 100 GB max) and because (most importantly) added an artificial limit of max 3 devices sync for free tier.

I switched to syncthing and so far I love it. Now my data lives on 2 always online servers plus few laptops, vms.
