I'm working on some projects right now related to quasi-retrocomputing stuff and Windows is the target for some of them for a few reasons. The Windows kernel still offers some some nice API's that linux either doesn't have anymore or is in the slow process of gutting. Plus whe shopping for specialized hardware, I'm often stuck with linux kernel 2.x drivers, and while I doubt the equivlent Windows drivers have been updated since then, I have more faith that they can run unchanged. Plus WSL offers me enough of what I'm missing for now. Also, admittedly I'm just more familiar with it.

Also my GPU does not play well on Linux. Games have performed much worse under Proton or even natively on Linux than they do on Windows.

Eventually I'd like to start trying some OS's outside the Unix-like and Windows family though. I've had my fill of Linux, Windows and *BSD.
^ My impression as well, after spending nearly $200K of my clients' money on AWS. I use GCP for my own work (+ a bunch of on-prem hardware) FWIW, but "the new IBM" phenomenon and "half assedness" is very real and palpable in the case of AWS.
Most of the bullshit that is circulating on the internet at the moment, for example as it relates to the pandemic say is balls to the wall craziness along the lines of bill gates inserting microchips in your brain or 5G infecting you with a virus, or you suffocating from wearing a mask.

It's not like we're talking about any sophisticated philosophizing here, the real danger from misinformation on the internet at the moment is the lowest of lowbrow garbage spread at extremely high velocity at virtually no cost.
Yeah that won't hold up in court. Otherwise the CDC is an unlimited force for tyranny within government.
Uh oh - over expansive authority being given to the executive branch by the legislature? What could possibly go wrong.
But what about the Scarface rule: "Never get high on your own supply"?

Her keynote at NAACL in 2016 was fantastic, really inspiring on the direction she thought AI research should go: develop NLP to process all medical records, sort of total information awareness for medical data.
I'm pretty sure they are all educated people and just know that. And it's hard for me to imagine such an unimaginative geologist who wouldn't be able to look at Earth as a planet.
I think if you watch OPs video you would agree that in this case YouTubes systems is also broken.

It’s kind of ridiculous that YouTube accept claims against an entire video without _any_ evidence, or even a description of what copyrighted material is being infringed on.

Instead it seems that YouTube will simply let someone claim that a video has copyrighted content without explanation (and in violation of the DMCA), and delete creators based on that.
> If I had to be nit-picky, my feedback would be: the lock and unlock icons are a bit too samey at small sizes on my non-high-res screen. Perhaps make unlock a bit more obvious? Shorten the open loop area a little more?

Or, alternatively, they could use a diagonal line, like in `eye-off`.
You're still on the hook for your lease etc. That's why they could actually kick you out for other reasons (ex: not paying electric).
This is absolutely absurd. And the fact that they justify it as to stop spread of COVID-19 is even more bizarre.

The government imposed this mortality-inducing and economically destructive lockdown, if they want to prevent evictions they need to pay the landlords what they’re owed. Reparations.

While I’m at it, a reminder that with COVID-19 we abandoned the critical pathological vs physiological distinction and define COVID-19 as “rt-PCR-positive for SARS-2” in the absence of any symptoms, which is just wrong. “Asymptomatic COVID-19” is an oxymoron, no symptoms means no disease. “Pre-symptomatic COVID-19” makes sense, but not asymptomatic.

You can have HIV without AIDS. Your skin can be colonized with C. Acnes without acne. But if you are PCR-positive for SARS-CoV-2 they call that COVID-19.

The above absurd definition of COVID-19 is how the death count is being inflated. Died of a motorcycle accident in Orange County? COVID death. 2 month old infant born with intestines outside of body? COVID death. George Floyd? COVID death (he was PCR-positive). All 3 of those examples are real examples, not ones I made up.

We’re going to look back at this as the first example of worldwide collective delusion (except Sweden). Dutch tulip bulb mania across the entire globe.
You... don't seem to know the meaning of the term "real estate."
Thank you. I've never seen wikiwand before but it is a big improvement. It is missing those pop over windows that wikipedia has when you hover over a link though.
Where did you read that you should live like a monk?

The closest I've seen would be Early Retirement Extreme. He's still not exactly about deprivation, but rather self-sufficiency. And he targets lower income levels than a competent software developer.

Most blogs I've read have focused on enjoying your life without being wasteful with your dollars. It's easy to spend money that doesn't return nearly what you might guess or hope when you click that buy button. Just a small effort can change your thought process and better optimize your use of money and improve your lifestyle.

While many don't despise their career, everyone prefers having complete say over how they spend their time to having to do what a boss demands. If you still prefer working, that's great, but if you don't have a choice about it, you're likely less happy about that.
Does that impact VPN providers?
A lot of people online thing this means they're living rent-free, it's going to be surprising to them when they are on the hook for thousands or even tens of thousands of dollars in back rent.

Reddit is celebrating, very few people seem to understand that this means they should still save their rent money.
they say its go but the soruce code is full of C...
In general, I agree. I've never been in a great position to take much time off between my relatively few jobs for various reasons. But I've also tended to have fairly generous vacation by US standards--which has let me had month long vacations--and I've also been able to schedule time around business travel in many cases.

I've never had a particular desire to retire especially early.
No, because if you don’t pay you can still be evicted the moment the moratorium is lifted. Landlords can still do everything in the process up to actually kicking somebody out.

The moratorium also notably doesn’t apply to people who can pay, but just choose not to.
Why would I evict someone if they are paying their rent? I mean I suppose there are a few cases when that happens, but by and large non-payment is the primary reason for eviction. I'm glad I don't own any rental properties right now. I figure the bank would not be happy if I told them I'm not going to pay until I get paid, even if "debt is still accruing".
U. S. PTF Vitamin D Deficiency in Adults: Screening – Draft
I think your friend is making their judgement with a bit of myopia. EVs with batteries open a lot of opportunities that can't really work for any sort of liquid fuel vehicle, hydrogen included.

Batteries can be charged basically anywhere hooked to the electrical grid. They can also be charged in places with their own islanded power generation (renewable or not). So they can effectively be recharged anywhere they can stop for a while.

They can also be charged while in motion with electrified roads. A bus in a downtown area can be charged/run off overhead lines but then drive around outlying areas on their batteries. General utility overhead lines could also be used by any cargo vehicle with a pantograph for inner city driving.

Long haul EVs and construction vehicles are more likely to electrify as diesel-electric hybrids rather than pure battery or fuel cells. Their "recharge" profile is very different from passenger vehicles. Construction vehicles need to power their actual tools so they need super high density power they can really only get from diesel fuel.
I sincerely hope you are right.
I agree. They were very quick to update their website to say "we're making a new thing", but the new thing isn't ready.

I used the metric implementation in Go (as someone with extensive Prometheus experience), and was shocked at how they managed to write so much code to do so little. You will be amazed at how many levels of indirection there are, with a little assumption hard-coded at every single point of indirection. (The net result being, in my case, that I couldn't actually create a gauge in Prometheus.)

I just use Jaeger and Prometheus together and they've never treated me wrong. I'm watching otel closely, but I wouldn't suggest that you use it quite yet, at least not for Go.

Ask HN: Do you find Slack shared channels useful?
Slack recently officially moved “shared channels” out of beta a few months ago. Is anyone using this feature and if so, how are you using it?
You don't need to live like a monk to retire early. And in the FIRE community rarely does retirement mean never working again.

I retired in my mid-thirties and almost everyone I told before hand had the same or similar pejorative response as yours... "Oh I could never do that" or "I would be bored" or even "Why would you want to do that?". I ended up stopping to tell people.

There is so much you can do when you've disconnected your employment from your living expenses. Not _having_ to work is very different than simply not working. You can work on what ever you would like. You can ask to work 2 days a week for 20% pay. You can work on mastering something completely different like woodworking, cooking, and instrument, or even something around software development. But to just associating FIRE with a monk-like or sedentary lifestyle is an overly broad and often inaccurate representation of the community.
An argument could be made both that it does and does not. I would probably say no if I was the judge deciding. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_preemption
Debts are still accruing. Landlords will still have the ability to pursue payments in the future. This does nothing but restrict landlords from kicking people out of their homes.
I'll admit I really don't get the fascination with hydrogen as an energy storage medium. It has to be manufactured, so how green it is depends on whatever the power input is coming from. It's not any inherently greener then synthetic hydrocarbon production, which can be produced from atmospheric carbon for zero net carbon impact, and of course has no sulfur or aromatics. It also works fine with existing engineering. And hydrogen is an absolute total bitch to work with. It's got bad density, a really low/really high pressure liquidation point, escapes from everything, embrittles steel, and on and on. The infrastructure has no multiple use, unlike improvements to the grid.

So why not just do full manufacture of regular fuel? I've never understood where hydrogen fits between improving batteries/capacitors and synthetic hydrocarbons. It always seemed like an answer without a question outside of rockets (and even there the economics and practicalities of methalox may be better).
He hasn't received any DMCA notices, Youtube don't do those - since DMCA gives creators fair use rights and have punishments for fradulent reports.

Even Sweden failed to engage in the common sense risk-stratification that experts have called for. They didn't even isolate nursing homes.
You: The government messed it up. The government needs to fix it.

Government: Absolutely! We too would also like to become a larger socialist entity that puts everyone on the dole. We will fix it all for you! Just give us complete control!
Sure, I know. HN is about tech news, maybe with a startup bent. But, I thought what a lot of programmers would have in common were innovative or uncommon angles, "hacking" of a sort.

I don't think rulebook following coders are particularly interested in debating like this on HN.
People aren't forgetting reality exists, they are falling in love with how the rules will actually be enforced, but know that the only morally defensible position to take is as it's written.
Youtube works in its own little court, they're not real DMCA notices. Otherwise companies wouldn't be allowed to blanket claim random stuff with no repercussions.
That's the bit that doesn't ring true to me, his "non-commercial" claim. I'm not at all suggesting that he deserves the treatment he's getting, but it doesn't seem like he's being entirely straightforward here. Can anyone who knows the law weigh in on whether I'm missing something about the distinction between 'commercial' and 'monetized via advertising'?
>if they want to prevent evictions they need to pay the landlords what they’re owed

My landlord told me to get a second job after I got laid off. Maybe the landlords should get second jobs.
Probably terribly - but in the US your credit score isn't federally managed so they'd need to nationalize Equifax or try and force business practices to do anything about credit scores.
Meanwhile, all the smaller channels/businesses without that clout that get suddenly and automatically shut down die a quiet death.
It's possible that they know this, but from a marketing perspective, hydrogen has a big ol' green circle/clean font plastered all over it.
Look I was just joking. Your original post is just crazytown.

No one controls the price of previous metals. Other than the US government price support of Gold by not selling its reserves, which would best serve the US economy by dumping into the market.
We are on the same page. Dont use line segments, use NURBS curves. Length and area can be evaluated via piece wise approximation or numerical integration along the curve - which is a different flavor of the same thing.
I've worked at a couple "mid-sized" financial companies (i.e., not "tech" companies, but with a healthy need for various computer products and services) throughout my career where migration plans from one technology or provider to another were measured in years, and would sometimes get extended to the order of decades for larger migrations (e.g. moving core business functionality off a legacy mainframe system). A year or two notice that you'll need to migrate something important is really not feasible for a lot of businesses who would otherwise be very interested in outsourcing to a cloud provider.
I believe the Midori project at Microsoft found similar in trying to write an OS in C#.
The claim is that it derives from public health emergency powers. Arguing that evicting people increases the infection risk, therefore falling within CDCs powers. But that indeed seems to be stretching things to somewhere around the breaking point.

The underlying reg: https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2020/09/04/2020-19...

The authority seems to be claimed mostly from 42 U.S.C. §264: https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/USCODE-2018-title42/html...
The US has collapsed. We can't ignore the reality anymore. Prepare accordingly.
The landlord is providing you with resources. Nobody has a right to resources for free. Don’t you see the absurdity of your position?
Making asynchronous requests to fetch data. In this context specifically, the common case of fetching data asynchronously and then rendering it to the DOM.

My impression is that Jamstack is meant to include apps that render client side, but disclude apps that require a custom dynamic backend - serving static data and fetching it asynchronously is in, as is hitting third party APIs (the API part of JAM), but writing your own backend to serve data from a DB / etc. is out. Does that make sense?
I guess that depends - is it a frequent occurrence, historically?
Investments have risk. Real estate is an investment. It turns out a global pandemic is a risk, and these people may lose their investments.
> if they want to prevent evictions they need to pay the landlords what they’re owed. Reparations.

Why should the government back up somebody's risky investment?
It might lower payment rate (if an eviction isn't coming those folks may put their money toward more immediate issues like healthcare/food). But it will also decrease overall revenue for landlords - someone who isn't able to pay their rent can't be evicted and theoretically replaced with someone who can... then again I'm not certain how many folks are moving apartments right now.
Is this a new order, or did the CDC declare this sometime within the past few days to past few weeks?

Surprisingly, the PDF contains no date, beyond OMB expiration date.
If you need discovery.

But that’s not an excuse for every use case. For example a corporate training video with the URL emailed to every participant.

Why YouTube? Because everyone else does it. And nobody even began to think about looking at the possibility that there might be alternatives.
They should try and suspend habeus corpus. That would be interesting to watch.
The surgeon general and the secretary of HHS, acting together, not the CDC, have broad powers to do pretty much anything under 46 USC 264.

The idea that you seem to entertain, that these powers would extend to forcing states to _not_ take anti-disease measures, seems like it would fail in court.
I actually thought it was a rhetorical question, with the intent of stating that the law still wouldn't save us from supply chain emissions.
Peripheral nerve, yes. But not brain damage I guess? Yes, that's a possible and well-known complication, although quite rare.
It sounds futuristic though and the exhaust is water!
The cards are Tesla branded passive RFID Java Cards, you can confirm this with the NXP RFID reader app on Android. They are powered by the RFID reader.
the eviction moratorium is pretty far removed from the list of examples given. Can the CDC also mandate that no one be laid off during a pandemic, or that hospitals provide care for free? The cdc's interpretation of this law leads to some pretty ridiculous implications.
That’s why I think we never should have forcably closed businesses in the first place. But once we did, it’s only right that they foot the bill.

How can you make it illegal to work and then demand someone pay rent? Neither is it fair to make landlords be stuck holding the bag.
Sounds like we are turning our entire website infrastructure into a 1984 monitoring system
Perhaps the mitigation strategy for youtubers is to find something like RSS for video?

Rental properties are an investment, why in the world would we subsidize investment losses? The fault is having housing for the majority of people classified as a financial instrument. There is no scenario where the landlords should be compensated.

Also your argument that they imposed lockdowns that were economically destructive and caused death is exactly the opposite of what we know to be true as evidenced by the countries that successfully implemented lockdowns initially and slowed the spread. It's these types of mental gymnastics that represent our failure as a nation to combat this.

I second this. It's incredible complex to debug how Traefik understand it's configuration, and also documentation and examples over the internet are very confusing because the version 1.x vs 2.x changes.

I was part of a focus group a year ago. The general consensus was Google might be great, but everyone felt better about using AWS for real world projects. MS Azure was a close second.

Ironic how Google has squandered their goodwill.

I'm not sure why the fact someone can't pay rent, shouldn't factor into their credit score. Even with the moratorium, it means they are piling up debt in missed rent payments without income.
Speaking from Oakland CA here where the eviction moratorium is one of the most intense in the country. I think most renters who opt not to pay during eviction moratoriums suspect that being brought to court for rent arrears is akin to squeezing blood from a stone.

My lawyer advised me to negotiate rent to an amount my tenant can pay stating, "the only way you'll be able to collect is by a future collection action, and many times those types of judgments are worth about as much as the paper they're printed on."

I say this all to try and drive the point home, a moratorium on evictions is akin to an implicit rent reduction or rent elimination.
Yea a family member of mine manages properties and they don't have great margins to begin with - this moratorium might end up forcing a lot of small businesses to be folded into the large property management companies and those guys are pretty terrible.
Regarding speed: it's not that Firefox got slower, it's that Chrome set a new performance bar that Firefox had to meet --- and largely has met! Though a cost of meeting that performance bar was dropping XUL extensions, which is one of those changes that people still complain about.

Contribution to Mozilla's defeat of IE is one of the great accomplishments of my life, but having been there for both fights, the fight against Chrome definitely was much tougher. Microsoft took their eye off the ball and basically stopped working on IE for a few years, which gave Mozilla a huge opportunity; no such luck with Chrome. The complexity of Web sites has increased a lot which makes it much harder to keep up and surpass a more well-resourced browser.
Insightful, thanks.
Zero emission including power generation? Or do they just ignore it? that's the main problem with corporations' pollution...
I'm not sure if you've ever considered the fact many do.
> if they want to prevent evictions they need to pay the landlords what they’re owed

There is cognizable legal argument that this order might qualify as a 'taking' within the terms of the 5th amendment, which might require the government to compensate landlords, but I don't think that argument will be successful. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fifth_Amendment_to_the_United_...
I like to imagine what the trade names of the future are going to be. When you meet someone on the Mars colony whose last name is Tuber and that bit of Snapple (best stuff off earth!) Cap wisdom perks up in your brain: "why, their great-grandpappy must have been one of the YouTube personalities on the first ship!"

I think it was prompted by seeing the name "Hodler" once and thinking it sounded like the cryptocurrency equivalent of Wainwright or Cooper.
JPA is just starting to show it's years. The standard hasn't kept up.

For me personally, I'd like to see something like EntityFramework, but in Java. No annotation hell, linq queries are amazing too.

I know a lot of people are moving to just using jOOQ as well.
You're right that 'asymptomatic' doesn't necessarily make sense when counting prevalence of a disease, but it does make sense when trying to contain that disease, as asymptomatic people can still be contagious. The metrics that have been published come from the context of trying to slow the spread, not from the context of counting the people most badly affected.
It would be truly radical to keep this plant running that far past its originally designed life time. In fact it will be more like suicidal. Not to mention that it is in a seismically dangerous area.

There is plenty of energy in renewables that is far cheaper and safer than nuclear.
At least part of China's emissions is thanks to US consumers. Just because we moved the factories there doesn't mean that goes away.
If that was true then it wouldn't be news, nor at the top of HackerNews.
