A number of other apps (including Pocketcasts and Rhythmbox on Linux) scrape the iTunes directory for podcast feeds. So getting your podcast in iTunes is reaching much more than 15% of the market. Purely anecdotally from people I've spoken with and podcasts I listen to, Apple is their largest source of subs.
Pogs were a fad. Bittorrent took downloading large files from being an unreliable pain to being effortless.

Perl was not a 'fad', it was what powered the internet's dynamic sites in the early days. Foundational technologies that eventually are hidden from the average person is not what 'fad' refers to.

Just because you don't use something doesn't mean it isn't used. You keep digging in to nonsense. (Also total internet bandwidth usage has increased significantly over time).

The difference is that tuning an IC engine is pushing components into/past its designed safety/mechanical thresholds. Does 'tuning' a Tesla actually do this? If it is designed to perform at this level after paying Tesla, how could they deny warranty coverage with Magnuson-Moss in mind?
Out of curiosity, have you played the game itself?

I played both the predecessor Doom 2016 game and Doom Eternal on the exact same hardware, and I was blown away by the performance and quality difference.

Never before have I seen a game crank up the graphics quality this much and improve performance to this extent without requiring a hardware upgrade.

To put things in perspective, I had to play Doom 2016 at 1080p on an NVIDIA RTX 2080 Ti for acceptable framerates, but I played Doom Eternal at 4K and it produced a silky smooth 60 fps throughout.

I started at 39. I had been looking for a new career to transition from video editing. After the third time my employer restructured my role, I took a voluntary redundancy (basically volunteering to be laid-off) and started programming full-time. I did an online bootcamp and never looked back. Five years later I'm a Senior Software Engineer, and hoping to upgrade to principle engineer by end of the year.

Sometimes I suddenly feel like a fraud, especially when I realize I'm in a meeting where everyone in the room has a CS degree or higher, but overall I feel like I bring a lot of value to what we do and most of all, I really love doing it.

I remember anonymously asking on Quora if people thought I was too old to learn how to program. The amount of support and stories that were shared with me were positively overwhelming. Probably the best answer I received was, "do you enjoy doing this thing?, if so, the answer is you should just do it."
Why? I didn't know this deal was made. It's pretty common to see older news on this site.
Maybe so, but I still am unsure how the words `heavier' and `thicker' can apply to a software function.

Is it maybe a way of saying more computationally intense or more layers in a neural network? It could be a non-native speaker, but to me those adjectives only really apply to physical things. I'm not sure.
I appreciated this write-up. The line between "mildly interesting story with some great photos" and "we made a wrong turn or wrong decision and died" is a lot thinner than I think this post makes clear.

There are very few roads and people in the High Sierras, and Red Meadows pack station is basically it when it comes to services.

Surrounded by smoke, changing winds, and uncertain information, they had to try and get information through very low bandwidth, high latency satellite text systems (I have an InReach, and it's great, but leaves a lot to be desired).

I'm impressed with their retelling of the story and am glad they made it out safe.

Its Tesla's liability and reputation if a Tesla vehicle with questionable integrity burns at a DC fast charger. I don't think that's "worse", that's the deal if you own a Tesla vehicle (regardless of how you obtained ownership). Just takes one careless tinkerer to ruin the narrative for everyone. Tesla previously had a recertification program, where you could pay for a tech to inspect the HV battery and powertrain to confirm it's state supported fast DC charging, not sure if they're still offering it though.
Adtech companies don't really want to be held responsible for the effectiveness of your advertisement or the conversion rate of your landing page. When such models exist (called CPA or cost-per-action usually), there's a significant premium attached for that risk. Most advertisers don't want to pay that premium.
I have both a Mac and iPad and, I'm in a developing country. Paying $100/year for a utility like this a bit too much.

Exchange rates aside, I'm coming from register once, pay to upgrade world. When deciding not pay means losing access to the app, not to the latest version only; It's very hard for me to fork the cash.
While I certainly wouldn't do this with every page and also not every time, I got so anxious of link rot lately I save out of reflex any good content I come across to the Waybackmachine.

Cool concept. I think these ideas are where the actual solution lies. Plants and trees can do a lot of carbon sequestersting--at scale no less.
Yes, see @mauvehaus's top-level comment [1] for a proof sketch. The idea is to either treat the folded shade as an unfolded shade and repeat the process, or to make one loop sufficiently large that it can be folded again independent of the other loops. Either way, imagine taping the original loops together, since they do not participate in future folds.

The original comment was regarding floppy drives so I mentioned the first computer with a floppy drive I used. The first computer I would have used was my father's Heathkit ET-3400 microprocessor learning system in 1976. That required each time typing in the machine code for the high/low game I played on it. The TRS-80 Model 1 was purchased a year or so later and originally had a tape drive.
> Even if people aren't scraping the network to record the order of block creation

I'm not sure if "scraping the network" is possible if chunks have unguessable names. Also, it's possible that someone could have a file shared among friends (over TLS), for years, without it being publicly announced.

> it will be mighty suspicious when the Y blocks are scattered randomly across the network, and the Z blocks are conveniently hosted in one place.

I suppose it depends on how blocks are distributed in the system. If the blocks of Y are all served from y.com and you host your Z blocks on z.com, then both hosts will look equally suspicious is Y XOR Z produces an infringing file X. The owner of z.com just needs to be able to credibly claim that y2.com was already hosting the Y2 that XORs with Z to produce a legitimate file.

Alternatively, a single node could host Z, Y, and Y2, all created by users, with no logs kept of when each block was created or requested (and no search/listing function). Such wilful ignorance may not impress a court, but is roughly equivalent to running a non-logging VPN, or a chat service that doesn't retain metadata, or a Tor node, or an online encrypted backup service. The service could even offer to follow a DMCA takedown procedure, in case non-XORed non-encrypted blocks were stored on it.
I'm aware of the existence of such conspiracy theories. To me, the simpler and more plausible explanation is that Assange did what the women accused him of doing.
I think a good solution might be to host the archive version yourself (archive.org is slow, and always using it centralizes everything there).

Let's say you write an article on your site, https://yoursite.com/my-article, and from it you want to link to an article https://example.com/some-article

You then create a mirror of https://example.com/some-article to be served from your site at https://yoursite.com/mirror/2019-09-08/some-article (put /mirror/ in robots.txt and set to noindex (or maybe even better to put a rel="canonical" towards the original article?)) and on the top of this mirrored page you add a header bar thingy containing a link to the original article, as well as one to archive.org if you so want.

tl;dr instead of linking to https://example.com/some-article you link to https://yoursite.com/mirror/2019-09-08/some-article (which has links to the original)

The external assets for a page could be archived separately though, right? I would think that the static G+ assets: JS, CSS, images, etc. could be archived once, and then all the remaining data would be much closer the 120B of real content. Is there a technical reason that's not the case?

Show HN: Online teaching companion tool for students' emotional wellbeing
We have developed a project called Sulli, which is an online learning companion tool to monitor students’ emotional wellbeing.
Currently, the most popular method of teaching is lecture using a video conference application. This method is limited since it only serves the purpose of delivering the class content. We believe that the role of school extends to nurturing the students’ Emotional growth & Wellbeing. That being so, Sulli can connect teachers and students to a new extent.

The name “Sulli” is named after Anne Sullivan, best known for teaching Helen Keller. She taught Keller, a child that was both deaf and blind, while being partially blind herself. Although often overshadowed by the achievement of her protégé, Sullivan was a gifted educator undeterred by limitations of her circumstances. Just like Sullivan was to Keller, we hope Sulli can help all teachers and students struggling with online teaching globally under the pandemic.

Sulli represents non-verbal cues that the teacher would see naturally in a face-to-face classroom environment. It minimizes the discrepancy between face to face classroom and online learning environments in a subtle way.

Sulli is not a replacement for the conference application but a companion to the online classroom application. Students can still raise questions in the chat or through the video call.

You can give my public server a try but it can be quite slow. Please contact me directly if you would like our team to set it up for you personally.
Not really. Facebook is quite publically trying to get Chinese social media banned simply to avoid the competition. Microsoft is directly benifiting from the promised TikTok ban by potentially getting TikTok US for a much lower price.

Wow, this has blown up a bit, so I have added few more servers (now two servers on the West coast and two in Europe), but ultimately I think there is a limit cap of 100 Titanoboa instances in each geography in parallel.

Instead give me a star on github and come back later :)

I think a lot more of them can hold a tune than you give them credit for, it's just that pitch adjustment in the studio is stretching them beyond their natural vocal range, so when they try to reproduce it live, quality suffers. Unless you're specifically talking about artists like T-Pain, but their whole thing is that autotune is their vocal instrument.

It's a bad look on the SP500 if Tesla continues its rise and shareholders of the SP misses out on gains because of this "committee decision".
> Any stock that moves 20% on this kind of decision is fundamentally flawed.

When a stock join an index, all the index funds (which simply passively follow the index) have to purchase a proportionate amount of that Stock (and got rid of whatever stock was ejected). Sonic you think stock X will go into an index you know that there will soon be a brief surge in demand for shares of X. Why now own some so that when that surge happens you’ll make a quick profit? Oops, didn’t join, so now you probably want to get rid of thats tick you just held to flip.

I don’t think Tesla is a good investment but this particular and unusual case is not why.
Actual reason is Tesla has multiple class shares:
https://www.dividend.com/news/2017/11/03/companies-multiple-...

"On July 31 [2017], S&P Dow Jones Indices, the outfit that oversees the S&P 500 and its constituency, announced that it would take steps to exclude companies with multiple share class structures. ... The move comes amid blowback from investors who have complained about company practices that are designed to keep majority, or total, voting control in the hands of its management and founders"

> I do think that they are more valuable than some other large automakers, but probably not more than all of them put together. :)

The Enterprise Value of Tesla ($398B) is only slightly more than the Enterprise Value of Toyota ($337B). VW's is $224B. They have a valuation larger than any other automaker, but not even close to that of all put together.

EV = market cap + debt - free cash

Not including debt in a company's valuation is like saying that the valuation of my house is only $100K if I still have a $400K mortgage on my $500K house.

Even for his time he wasn't tolerant. Let me narrate 2 stories from the same period.

When Akbar took over Chittore fort, he ordered butchering of general public (30000) and made a tower out of skulls. This event is celebrated in Mughal painting. He called himself a Gazi(slayers of infidels) after this event.[1]

Maha Rana Pratap was Akbar's great enemy who despite having a small kingdom never accepted Akbar's rule so he sent out Abdul Rahim Khane Khana to fight with Maha Rana. Rahim was travelling with his wife and daughters. Maha Rana's subordinates were able to capture his family. But when prisnors were bought in front of Maharana he ordered them to be returned with immediately without harm. This event changed Rahim so much that he became devotee of Bhagwan(Lord) Krishna and refused to fight for rest of his life.[2]

Both were from the same era. Who looks tolerant?

Akbar ordered his sisters to remain unmarried because he could digest the idea of someone getting physical with women of his family. Later this became a practice and all subsequent Mughals princess died spinsters.
He demanded women from the kingdoms he conquered. His harem had 5000 women. He killed his tutor Bairam Khan and married his wife.[3]

I was about to comment the same thing. They talked about how it's a progressive web app: good, built in react: good, client side rendered: no no no why!

As a general rule, Web "apps" should be client rendered (think FB, Twitter, Gmail, etc), Web "sites" should be server rendered. I wish React made it more clear what the difference between the two is and why you should use one versus the other. I know frameworks like Next and Gatsby do it but I wish it was a more ingrained part of React.
I think they're a scientifically-based "story"/"brand" stock based on climate science and reticence to change from other car makers...but, tangentially, if we have a recent influx of wealthy liberal people who believe climate is a huge threat, doesn't it make sense that the objectively best BEV maker is going to get a ton of interest from these investors who haven't lost income and wealth due to COVID and are looking for future-proof assets?

Maybe $TSLA and the market at large wouldn't be doing so well if rich investors could still spend money on vacations, luxury events, concerts, travel, etc?

Computers are powerful enough that a reasonable desktop PC these days could host 100K simultaneous web connections simultaneously and still be entirely usable for several other things as well, as long as you are not flagrantly wasteful with them.

That is, static web hosting is an entirely solved problem that no longer requires special hardware.

Just yesterday, I was impressed that my four-year-old laptop could build 8 virtual machines at once, writing 500 MB/s to disk sustained, and I could still use it to compose emails without a significant performance hit.

That kind of thing would have been unthinkable a mere 10 years ago on even the most high-end servers, let alone something you can carry around with you...
If you don't have anything in common with others then you're both mutually doing a really bad job of sharing your favorites with each other. I love getting musical recommendations from friends, and most of my very favorite music ever comes by way of friends, rather than me having "discovered" it "independently" (whatever that even means).
> In addition, there are lots of alternatives to Haskell that are almost as good. That isn't true of Rust. If you need systems programming, you have C, C++, maybe Ada. Rust is trying to drive a fairly difficult wedge into that area, but if it succeeds, the alternatives are scarce.

In terms of purely technical ability to catch certain set of bugs at compile-time, Rust as a language is one-two generations behind ATS, that supports refinement types and theorem proving, whilst staying on the industrial side of the "(industrial) C <-> (academic) Coq" spectrum.
I believe the distribution layer built on top of ETS and DETS you’re trying to name is mnesia. It supports distribution and allows a variety of interesting topologies. It’s not the only distributed data store available on the BEAM but it’s well tested, mature, and comes as part of the OTP libraries.

I sincerely doubt if that's how it works even nowadays. You need to be discovered by a well-connected and well-heeled patron who thinks what you do can be marketed with just a few tweaks. Very seldom does the artist become the patron of their own work is my guess. Banksy might be one of the few exceptions that prove the rule.
