This is a lot of fun! The zoom and controls are great. A few things to wish for: 1) show the road path before I build it otherwise a stray cursor movement can create unwanted road, 2) allow me to fast-forward time, and 3) allow me to control where workers spend time on not just ban them from consuming a particular item.

Very nice work!
If you write an app that you can sell on the app store to 860 people for $5 you already got the money to buy a Macbook Pro 16”.

I don’t think the Macbook restriction is such a big problem. However, if you sell it to 1 million people and Apple takes the 30% cut, that’s a loss of $1.5M for you...

(Maybe I miss something, I never wrote iOS apps, I’m just doing the math)

A key point is that terrorism needs to intentionally cause terror in the furtherance of the political goal.
I'm not an American, but if I was, I think I'd have my pitchfork ready!
My tip is get as much help as possible. Extended family and friends. Help can be babysitting or preparing food or helping with diy.

And have cash to pay for convinence.

Don’t buy anything (clothing,
Furniture) new except of course toiletries and diapers - that’ll save you 3k or so that you can invest in eating take out. I’m serious ;-)

Uber eats is your go to baby gift to ask for!

Cruise at work as much as possible - avoid getting promoted. Avoid trying to improve things or caring too much. Just do your job well based on what they expect.

Take it in turns to get a good night sleep. The couch will be the 5 star hotel!

Finally it’s hard to do but relax. Don’t read too many baby books you’ll probably learn enough from prenatal classes. Just know the medical stuff, when to go to the doctor etc.

And find time to go out and have fun. Once a month for a couple of drinks should be possible.

If you don’t have much money all this is going to be really hard and I am not sure what to advice there. Get as much help from friends as possible. You might want to move to where they mostly are.

C sections are horrible. Some OBs love em though. So get multiple opinions and decide yourself. Sometimes unavoidable of course but question a planned one. Don’t believe the 6 week recovery driving again bull shit. Be prepared for 6 months of pain.

Finally my pay has increased at the highest rate since having kids. Part of that is software eating the world, mixed with the lack of the luxury to accept low paying but interesting jobs. I’m not coding Haskell, but hey Typescript is still pretty nice!
> so might as well keep driving it until something really expensive breaks.

Drove my 04 Sebring until 2017 - 236k miles - would liked to have fixed the last problem, but... mechanic wasn't quite sure that even if I fixed it, it would pass inspection without even more work. it was basically non-running and would have taken up close to $2k with no guarantee of how much longer it would have gone. As much as I hated to do it, I moved to a 2016 (1 year old at the time) focus. Sebring was... 25mpg - focus is getting me around 35-36 - 40+ on longer trips, but haven't had any since covid.
At this point at least pay for delivery would give you some path to actually get to users.
It’s ridiculous to think that you’ve failed unless you’re the founder of a smash hit company, or a movie star, or a hundred millionaire, or a famous scientist. Those are very very low probability outcomes.

The worst life to live is where you’ve sliced up your day into strict intervals of mantra contemplation, deep work, practicing guitar, working out, eating on a strict diet, etc., basically becoming your own slave, ultimately to no great outcome, because it turns out those “great outcomes” are not a function of this militaristic masochism.
Yeah it should, but the laptop's firmware would need to be modified to not check for an authentic battery
I was an avid calculator spotlight user; however, ever since Catalina CPU spikes have been insanely high, I have stopped using it. And most of the other users who noticed this started posting about it this year, so I am sure that there was some change that was rolled back that caused spotlight to stop recognizing when a calculation was being invoked (but I could be wrong).
Not all of it. Some designated as critical infrastructure is protected, private business can also be protected information.

The trick here is, most of the grid can compensate for outages and entire sections being lost. It's build to handle that. You can't just run out and bring down substations and transmission lines and knock out a city.

There's only some that are absolutely critical. Take Diablo Valley for example. Because they're nuclear and critical, they have an entire SWAT Team on hand and folks with .50 Cal Rifles on the roofs.

I wont speak to the security of this facility. I'll just say this, If someone got within 10 feet of the facility. It would be immediately known and responded in kind. There is no way, even digging a tunnel, someone would not be noticed.

So you want to roll your own crypto?
The supposed inherent inaccuracy of AK pattern rifles is a fud meme, primarily perpetuated by the type who also think M-16s are made by Mattel and other goofy boomer legends that were popularized before the internet made it easy to fact-check. However it's also a popular misconception that sniping is necessarily a matter of long range shooting. JFK was shot from under a hundred meters and that's commonly agreed to be the work of a 'sniper'.
Isn’t this basically what SPF, DKIM and SMTP over TLS get you? Sure you can try to forge messages but they should bounce immediately and not even reach the recipients inbox.
Knowing the key things to shoot to maximize disruption and damage, the signaling, the fact that the cctv positions seem to have been scouted and dead zones found, the fact that no fingerprints were on any casings, a substantial hunt
being unable to find those responsible, the pre-cut communications links, the coordinated tactics of the group etc. are all signs of sophistication.
In addition to the price of the client itself ($20 seems like a fair price to pay for high quality software): If you spin up some AWS services while SSH'd into a box using Blink, doesn't Apple rightfully deserve a 30% commission on the payments to AWS?
Reminds me of Siberia's "Doorway to the Underwolrd" (Batagaika crater).

So am I understanding correctly that this is basically a popped methane bubble that had formed inside the permafrost? I wonder what the greenhouse gas impact of this was.
The article hints that it's formed from gas pressure:

> The craters appear because ‘gas-saturated cavities are formed in the permafrost…

> "In a literal sense, a void space filled with gas with high pressure. The covering layer distends, the thickness of which is 5-10 metres approximately."

> Explosions have happened in swelling pingos, or mounds in the tundra which erupts when the gas builds up under a thick cap of ice.
Perhaps because it's caused by an eruption of methane gas. Perhaps the bubble analogy is apt.
The holes in the ground appear to have been caused by air pressure (expanding methane gas), so perhaps the bubble analogy is apt.
Going to another cafe to buy your coffee doesn't include a door charge of €300 just so you can start getting your coffee there. Sure you can get it from those other devices but there's a large cost up front to switching device.

I originally started on Android and moved to iOS to check the other side. I find it annoying that I can't really use Kindle like I could before.. Or tell Siri to play something from Spotify. I'm forced to use Apple alternatives and it's the reason I'm moving back to Android when my phone dies.
Having worked on SMT stuff years ago, I (kinda) fondly remember the specs of what's acceptable/unacceptable in this guide (starting around page 125).
Do you not want to live longer?
Yeah, this is still needed even with coreboot. The attiny isn't doing anything too complicated, it's just there to tell the laptop the status of the battery. In the testing I did, if you supply 12v without any of the SMBus stuff the laptop will shut off after a few minutes of use.

I'm actually looking in to making a slice battery, it should be possible but sourcing the docking connector seems to be much harder than getting the battery connector.
Of course not, just compile your interpreter but instead of reading input from a file, have it read input from a fixed string (the source code) that is embedded in the binary. You've just created a super shitty compiler!

I don’t think that’s true at all. The Fairphone 2 came out the year after your mothers’s iPhone and got an OS update this year, and if she had it then she would be authorized and likely capable of replacing the battery herself.
I find it amazing that there's something called "The Siberian Times" and that it's in English.
I hold out hope that eventually there will be widespread buy in to combating climate change before it's too late. But it seems that we need obvious impending doom for everyone before people stop voting for right wing politicians.
Bigger takeaway for me is that the average APR is 5.8%. That’s high in the era of free money. Another huge detail, just casually mentioned at the bottom is that 12.8% of buyers are financing at rates above 10%. That’s insane.
> I understand why that was done in the company’s early days, but there ought to be a better way to reward/incentivize early employees that doesn’t rely on the fickle and myopic nature of publicly-traded stock.

The IPO is the carrot that you're dangling ahead of early employees many years prior to getting to that point.

When you've gotten to a state when you're ready for an IPO, they are expecting to actually get that carrot. You have no leverage or new incentives that you can give to an early employee after you IPO. If they are sticking around after, you're either drowning them in money, or they are doing it as a courtesy.

So, your alternatives are to ask them nicely, or give them a boatload more money to stick around.

> They had an almost endless supply of interested private investors pouring in money regularly

It sounds like they were interested in pouring money in to grow the business, not to reward early employees. (Which is perfectly reasonable.)

This is why you're finding the two things at odds with eachother. As an employee in a pre-IPO company you have a much smaller small amount of leverage for any sweat equity you put in, compared to someone who paid real dollars for their equity. Your interests aren't aligned with your investors, and their interests aren't really aligned with yours, outside of one thing - you both want to get to a point where you can cash out, via IPO.
The hybrid aspect of it is through using it's data storage system, opening the event loop, clearing widgets every frame, and adding them every frame.

Does Apple's app store content policy limit freedom of expression?
Sorry, you're absolutely right, I was mistaken and somehow ended up only skimming the parts of the article that were more about his personal story (and I guess overlooked the thread and article title, as well). Maybe partly due to reading some other previous Krebs posts about carders. Identity theft definitely is far more damaging to consumers than carding is, and banks and financial institutions are definitely a lot less forgiving.

People should disregard my above post. I think I just fell into the unfortunate HN stereotype of getting wrapped up in the comment section instead of RTFA.
Not exactly. For example, IO actually existed in Haskell before the IO Monad. It essentially used lists injected and retuned from the main function, plus the fact that Haskell is lazily evaluated (so those IO commands in the list wouldn’t be evaluated until main is run): https://stackoverflow.com/questions/17002119/haskell-pre-mon...

You can tell stories without writing.

That was how human history and "oral tradition" was passed down for thousands of years, even after the development of writing.

If anything, writing made telling stories harder because you had to start considering things other than just your words, like punctuation and spelling.

If you look at a movie, some of your bad screenplay writing can be fixed via casting. Imagine not having any hands on experience with the process, but alas, you move on to movie director because you took movie directing 101. It’s insane, design is a holistic process that requires a lot of exposure.

Most directors can't write screenplays, or even work the cameras they use to film their movies. And yet Hollywood has been doing just fine...

And for the record: there are plenty of game designers in the video game industry that can't program. They've collectively designed games that have sold tens of billions of dollars.

Android AOSP Can Boot Off Mainline Linux 5.9 with Just One Patch
Difference to pyimgui?
10% seems reasonable. I don't think people would scream about 20%, even. (Well, if Apple had made that change a few years ago, they wouldn't; now that they're in an ever-expanding PR disaster of their own making, people might be less amenable to that.) And they could probably have also staved off a fair amount of complaints about in-app purchases with just a different structure.

Off the top of my head:

- Non-free apps sold on the app store take a 20% cut, up to a max of a $5 fee. (This would be a bit of encouragement for developers to price productivity apps higher than $25; the "race to the bottom" in app pricing has been a deterrent for some classes of apps, in my understanding.)

- In-app purchases and subscriptions take a 15% cut, with a drop to 10% for subscriptions in their second year and beyond.

- Links to external web payment forms are allowed (with no Apple cut or penalty) in apps that are clients for cross-platform services, e.g., Netflix, Kindle, and so on.

There'd be a lot of details and nuance to work out with respect to those last two, but it doesn't seem like it'd be an impossible hurdle to figure out where to draw those lines.
This is certainly not a relevant point at all. All mainstream definitions of terrorism center around the type of acts that are included in the definition (eg violence against people vs violence against property), and the types of motive (political, ideological, religious, revolutionary for example, though all of those could reasonably be described as ‘political’).

Whether or not the perpetrator intended to strike terror into people’s hearts is irrelevant to the definition, because it is presumed that the types of acts covered by the definition are terrorizing.

A revolutionary destroying infrastructure with the sole intention of disabling the capabilities of the state would would fit into almost all definitions of terrorism, even though terrorizing people may have played no role in the perpetrator‘s motive.
Gemini: Automate Backups of PersistentVolumes in Kubernetes
Accomplishments should serve self-esteem. I want to be proud of what I did. You really only need one endeavor, and it doesn’t need to make money. It matters not whether your accomplishments are numerous or lucrative, but that your accomplishments make you feel good about yourself.

Where people lose their way is playing games they can’t win, or that they aren’t proud of. A common example is a career doing work you’re not proud of, that you get no respect for. You may “win” but you don’t feel any better. Or you spread yourself too thin preventing any meaningful accomplishment.

When I was a 9-5 software engineer I had low self-esteem. I was making great money, had a good job, but we weren’t creating software I was proud of. Meanwhile, I fell in love with and mastered a sport outside of work. The pride of mastering something I and others cared about and respected made me feel better than I ever did at my job. I realized then I should be chasing accomplishments that I can be proud of. That I should focus on doing less, and only doing what I derive my self-esteem from. I realized I didn’t need a fancy career or lots of money, I needed to do something I was a proud of.

I think a lot of people are doing something they really don’t care about, and justifying it to themselves because it’s lucrative, or a “good” job, or other people tell them to be proud of it but they personally aren’t.
Shhh. Don't wake them up from their pro-aging trance.

Sure. It will contain the hash of the rickroll video. That doesn't help with the question as to who proves that the content is what it claims to be?
If it's terrorism, they're going to want to have an effect that is large. That is the nature of terrorism. Small events that are insignificant are not the goal of terrorism.

If a person wanted to cause harm and damage the electrical infrastructure. They would have spent time planning and figuring out how to cause the most damage, with the least detection, with having the most PR and effect. Shooting a bunch of neighborhood transformers isn't the way. In their research they would have found so many other high-reward low-risk targets.

DearPyGui wraps Dear ImGui, provides a simulated traditional retained mode api, includes additional widgets and add-ons (plots, file dialogs, images, text editing widget, etc.), adds asyncronous support, addition items to the canvas, additional debug tools, etc.

Ultimately it tries to provide a complete package. Not a 1 to 1 wrapping.

> rotary locomotion likely evolved multiple times over the eons and was outcompeted away by legged (and other) creatures with more mobility to find food and mates.

Unlikely. Something that has the possibility to be so staggeringly more efficient would have found some niche even in present day. At least one spider makes itself into a wheel to roll down sand dunes faster than a predatory wasp can follow.

When something as complicated and calorically expensive as vision can evolve multiple times, the fact that rotary power hasn't evolved says that there is a block somewhere.

And, rotary power has evolved in some flagellar creatures. However, what evolved was a cellular ratchet. The system can go one direction only, and there was effectively no fine control for exactly the reasons I mentioned.

> for a potential analogue/precursor, consider the rotary joints we have in our bodies.

And those joints have complicated musculature and are relatively easy to permanently damage.
