Modern web browsers are among the most complex piece of software out there.

If you’re qualified to write that kind of code, basic needs are surely well taken care of and are the least of your concerns.

To put it simply, these people will not have a hard time finding high paying jobs. And since they are able to choose, “being part of the open web” makes a lot of sense.
SMIC is already manufacturing 14nm. The goal is to vertically integrate the entirety of the process, and thus gain independence as well as a future advantage.
This is really well done. I signed up and used the sample code provided to set up on my site. Founders were super helpful and gave me a few pointers when I ran into problems (my version of react was old).

It works great.
Yeah, there are lots of ways to do grocery reminders, I'm just pointing out that when the OP said "resource management for this is easy", he omitted the hard part. "Buy more when you're low" is the easy part, the hard part is how do you go from "I need more" actually buying more.
> If the ultimate commercial relationship is between you and the hotel or airline when you book through Expedia, then it's just as fair to say that the ultimate commercial relationship is between the passenger and Uber/Lyft driver.

When I book a flight through Expedia I enter a contract of carriage with the airline, not Expedia. This is a contractural matter, not just an abstract concept of "commercial relationship."
>I've done this to directly generate branded PDF reports via latex.

Can you elaborate on this a little? Do you mean via Jupyter notebooks?
Just came here to say this actually happened to me. About 10 years ago I lived in a high-rise apartment in Chicago. One day we got a bill in the mail for ~$50,000 -- turns out, I got billed for the entire building. It took weeks to sort that out.
> Also your meter is two-way. It's just sending your usage data back, not power.

This is actually a pretty good illustration of what I'm talking about - sending a few bytes a month for power usage data is much different than maintaining a constant bit rate of >0mbps from each customer. It's the difference between broadcasting 40 channels to everyone and reserving 1 channel for a bit of upload (fairly easy with old technology) and giving everyone their own channel for upload (much more difficult).

You're not wrong that a huge portion of the costs is putting things in the ground, though. The advantage that power companies have is that a lot of that work has already been done, and they don't have to upgrade as often because power usage requirements aren't changing as rapidly as bandwidth requirements. They also have the (arguable) advantage of usually being a government granted monopoly, so they don't have to worry about building something out and then being undercut by a competitor.

There is a lot to dig in to here, but consider this from a different perspective - there is actually quite a bit of competition among mobile providers, and yet prices aren't dropping very quickly. You could argue that that's because of corruption and collusion (in some cases it probably is) but also consider that any one of those companies would absolutely love to take market share from the cable companies. If Verizon could undercut Comcast and give you Internet and TV at home over their wireless network they would do that in a heartbeat. The only reason they're not doing it is because it would be too expensive. Or, more precisely, they are trying to do it, that's what 5G is, and it's costing them a fortune.

EDIT: Also consider another perspective - the power companies themselves would love to provide Internet service! On paper they are in a great position to be able to do that. They already have infrastructure, technicians, billing platforms, captive customers, etc. The reason they're not doing it is because their infrastructure doesn't support it, and couldn't really be made to do it without spending so much money on it that they could not be cost-competitive with existing products.

Why do you care if other people live in multi unit housing? It's not about making SFH illegal, but making multi-unit way more legal.
Promoted, celebrated, and continued to be fought for.

If you tautologically define "freedom of speech" as the compromise we have in the US, then that's true that we "have freedom of speech", but if you think at an objective measure of absolute freedom of speech (which would include any combination of words you could say, including what we would call libel, hate speech, copyright infringement, etc), then freedom of speech doesn't really exist anywhere.

There are just variations of restricted speech, some more than others, but also some different than others.

While I agree that there is a people ware problem,

1) We can do both - more equitable and productive distribution of wealth and self determination

2) Technology has created a new set of problems, at the intersection of human cognitive/mental limits, which the term "peopleware" tends to shrug off; the impression is that its more a people/social issue not a tech one.

An example, mentioned in the article was when people see 1000s of conspiracists on a forum and the hardcoding in our brains translates it as sign of trust worthiness. Even though a majority of people would call it crazy.
You literally die without food in at max 21 days. Suppose food supply chain got cut because of war or pandemic, you have to be able to supply food locally.

This is not a pure economical issue because it's not about efficiency, it's about have some redundancy so when things get hard, one won't just be starved to death. Afterall, it takes time for the market to adjust itself and without food, there won't be time.
Subsets of MDN docs are archived for offline downloads monthly by Kapeli (the team behind the Dash docs browsing app): https://kapeli.com/mdn_offline

I'm not sure where this leaves Kuma (current)/Yari (future) frontend work, which makes a deeper mirroring of MDN difficult to figure. I'm not sure if there's an equivalent to, say, MediaWiki's XML dumps.

The CC-BY-SA content licensing can be an obstacle as well, because the attribution is "Mozilla Contributors" or "MDN Contributors" but links to the history... which is obviously complicated should MDN disappear completely.
Jesus, no. The entire point of a taxi system is a supplement to mass transit to not require private car ownership. Once you start denying the service to the people who need it the most, you're eliminating the reason for its existence.
Yeah but some things like how you structure your data(which then drives CPU cache misses) aren't something you can easily adjust/tune.

Usually when you encounter one of those it's a rewrite/rearchitecture of a whole module/subsystem before you see any gains. Been there done that, not excited to repeat it again.
Would the one datasource have a single database with several tables, one for each server? Lets say I am monitoring mysql. Currently I have a `mysql` table in a databse named `telegraf` on each host. Can I combine multiple influx datasources into a single dashboard beacause that would be easiler right now for my current setup?
There are already movements applying this. Early retirement (FIRE), Tim Ferris 4-hour work week. Stoicism is also useful.

The HN fetish for using the webpage title as the submission title is so so so bad. It needs to die.
Absolutely false. Most taxi drivers don’t own the medallion, and in fact when they start their shift they owe the taxi cab company $80-100, so they need to work for a few hours just to get to break even.

Your mental gymnastics to try to justify why taxi drivers aren’t employees but Uber drivers are is showing.

Free markets don't solve racism. The "monopolistic" taxi cab company had numerous individual drivers, each making a decision. Moving this monopoly to Uber and Lyft doesn't work. And no stars are going to override bias.
The stats don’t tell the whole story.

China considers Taiwan a province of its own. People from Taiwan legally can work in China with about as much effort as someone can move from Kansas to California for work. As with Silicon Valley, you’ll find people tend to move where there are bigger salaries.

I meant that most nations action's align with their interests, not their rhetoric or ideology.

I'm not making a claim as to what we should do, I'm just saying that our current IP system has nothing to do with morality and everything to do with Western power and interest.

Personally I think a system such as the one you described is preferable too, but I'm just explaining the Realist (and by extension Materialist in the Fuerbachian sense, and thus Marxist, and thus Chinese) perspective on why laws are the way they are (which is incidentally correct), by contrast with the Idealist narrative that States tend to use to justify their interests.

Server-Side Google Tag Manager
They didn't fire Eich, as I said in my posting that you replied to. Did you not read that? So what proof do you have that they paid him a financial settlement for firing him, when clearly they didn't fire him? Or are you just making up false accusations now that contradict the known facts?

Exactly how much did they pay him, and why, since they certainly didn't fire him, and just how do you know that? Where is your evidence, or your retraction and apology for lying and spreading misinformation?

Why are you saying one time use? The guidance I have been able to find from 3M about their P100 filters says you can use them indefinitely until it becomes too hard to breathe. The situation is a bit different if you're counting on blocking larger droplets/aerosols, as the smaller virii could separate and leach through. But I would think rotating filters should be sufficient for that.
Is 3 mins a ticket realistic? That seems super low for anything that isn't dead simple.

I think the old internet was a lot better because the ratio of moderators to users was much, much higher and the moderators tended to be well informed enthusiasts that were usually running the site and had the ability / authority to fix anything / everything.

The easy solution to me is just add money. Let me pay on-demand for support. I've had a GSuite account for ages and never needed help with anything, but if my account got locked and I needed to talk to a human with the ability / authority to unlock it I wouldn't hesitate to pay $50-$100.

IMO part of the problem at Google is likely years and years of bragging instead of building and the tooling is probably absolute garbage to the point that a human wouldn't make a difference. That's why I say 3 mins seems low. I bet there are a lot of things that a human couldn't fix even if they wanted to.

It's pure speculation, but makes sense to me.

The question isn't "Would people prefer to live in an SFH?", but "Would people prefer to live in an SFH if it were legal to build other housing types, changing the respective cost?" I would obviously prefer to live in a waterfront mansion within walking distance of urban amenities, but that would cost 20-50x what my house cost.

Some people would like the option to save money and buy less housing in an area - see micro apartments. Some people would be willing to spend as much as they can to live in a desirable area, but cannot afford a SFH there so they buy a SFH in a different area. Both of those options are limited by the near omnipresent restrictions on housing types outside of central cities.
As far as I understand, the original proposal relies on a) no safety egress walkways in the tunnel and b) a more cramped vehicle profile.

I don't know how as-actually-built hyperloop compares to rail tunnels.
Having gotten paid for fixing many a fridge and reclaiming a ton in college, the answer was, toss on a respirator, then pour a bottle of bleach in to the fridge (dorm size) and let it sit for a week in the heat. Then open it and hose it out. It was fine. Full size fridge is like 3 bottles of bleach. Also you have to put it on it's back (coils).

Soooo many students were like "This fridge is a loss" and would just give them to me.

That is a rather remarkable compression ratio. Do you have a link to technical details? The lightweight compression outlined in the Gorilla TSDB and implemented in Uber's m3db is 11x which I thought was best in class: https://cs.brown.edu/courses/csci2270/papers/gorilla.pdf

It’s not legit at all. I’ve always been a fan, and all his busted videos in the past featured one very important feature: the violation of thermodynamics. He always showed why a product was physically impossible. But he doesn’t do that with a hyperloop. And ultimately, if you see through the repetition and downright nastiness, you see that his argument is essentially “hyperloop is very expensive, it would be unsafe and render artists don’t know science.” I wouldn’t have minded if he hadn’t taken that low shot at Elon when a rocket blew up on the pad. Honestly, I don’t think it’s a coincidence that he started targeting Elon, with the sudden and notable lack of violation-of-physics, around the same time he started pushing his channel to have more engagement and make more money.

TLDR: I’ve seen all his videos and his hyperloop videos basically lack substance. Scott Manley is a much better source of opinions on such things.
The UI is finally getting usable. Thanks a lot of all the peoples involved in making it better. I switched a few weeks ago most of my communication from Telegram to Matrix and I hope I will be able to move my family to Element by the end of the year.
> wouldn't every website allow everything Legal and be able to just point at the laws and say, "if you don't like it, change the law"?

Again and again, industries operated by rational agents self-regulate with the goal of preventing the government from getting involved. (With many obvious exceptions, like businesses seeking regulatory capture, producers of commodities with razor thin margins, operators who don't expect to be in business long enough for regulation to take effect, etc.)

Once you get the government involved, you have not only the risk of public backlash whenever you make a mistake, you have the risk of fines or worse. Now your legal council has to get involved in the operation of your moderation system. You potentially need multiple people to sign off on moderation decisions to ensure compliance as well as a system to maintain a paper trail in case government auditors come sniffing around. Your operational costs begin to balloon.

A PR person who says, "If you don't like our behavior, change the law" is basically self-destructive.
Case in point.

Victim ideology writ large (group level - ingroups and outgroups) is still victim ideology. It doesn't become more right at the group level, it stems from the same biases and thought patterns.

I found the Spanish lifestyle harrowing. Many work for hours in the morning, take an hours long break, then work into the late evening. Maybe the warmer climate or tourism economy agree factors. But it didn't strike me as appealing. They also have high unemployment along the youth.
Some of the economists/philosophers I mentioned do not make the point that ignorance is sufficient and necessary for exploitation, rather, even with all the information (and perhaps even with perfect information), some such situations can still be said to be exploitative. This is because interesting cases of exploitation actually arise out of lack of means or institutional pressures, not a lack of information about one's means or ignorance of the institutional pressures.
I have a 2000 BMW 318ti as a daily beater. I was adjusting the clock on it the other day and loved it.

It ticks over very slowly, 1 second is 1 minute when you hold the Minute(M) button down.

I just held it whilest driving and counted to the minute, and when I let go later and glanced it, it was right.

So satisfying. I think Mazda have announced that they aren't going for touch interfaces any more. Personally with more things becoming increasingly digital I find even more satisfaction in touching well made physical objects...

Use your network. Make sure your friends know you are looking. Especially friends that are also looking. I've had conversations like this with old friends: "Hey, I'm looking for something new.
