I am right there with you. I can't say I would jump to purchase either but the $600 upfront and $100 per year option is less outrageous to me than the one that costs $2700 upfront but is practically free in perpetuity.
You can use hn.algolia.com, sort it by date, and then search for the usernames that you want to follow like this,

"author:username1 author:un2 .. .. .."

there is a limit on how many users you can search this way, I have split my list of users into 2 lines, and have those 2 lines pinned in my clipboard history.
And, I think the idea of just having the front page of the New York Times on your wall, which will only show a set number of stories and will only ever update once per day, could be a great moderating force!
That, I do expect.
(googler, opinions are my own. I know nothing about youtube specifically)

Youtube likely has lots of moving parts to host all the different systems. Video content, search, browse, player, etc... could all be different bits. And it's also fun to know that video content itself may not be hosted directly by Google, as you could get it from the GGC (Google Global Cache)[0].

When you have a system as big as Youtube, you need to think about all the different ways you can slice different parts of the service. If any of those parts could be more optimized by having the data stored/sorted in some different way, it likely is.

It also means the market is opening back up. The code of projects gone by still exists, and it's not the worlds biggest effort to make a photo app.
This was in the time of dumbphones, which had battery life on the span of days, not hours. Compared to cell phones back then, it was relatively abysmal to need to charge your phone once a day. Even Blackberries didn't require daily charging back then IIRC.
Always?

I think it's quite the contrary. Look at the history of Logic, Cubase, Sonar, etc. For most of their time they didn't have flat UI. Ableton is the exception.
Looking up something by its clustered index is indeed pretty easy. That's not the only access pattern into most data sets, which is where tags can be handy.

I agree with your last two points, as my family's digital photos are also stored in a fairly similar clustered index style where you have to know the date at least pretty closely to start your search unless you want to scan "all Thanksgivings" [which itself is just a series of clustered index lookups]
It's used to express expected financial gain
I think you're underestimating the cost of leaving Google Photos.

Sure, it's not too bad but I need to migrate off a new platform literally 5 years of photos (+ face tagging), explain it to all my relatives, make them install another app.

Or I can just start paying 2$ per month.
I'm not too bothered but it's a clear bait and switch.

To be fair I wasn't sure if this was coming or not given Google is not exactly a small business and could afford to spend some storage money to lock people in better in their ecosystem.

His statement was off by a factor of ~20 (on the power of the reactor; the proper comparison is reactor vs. reactor, not reactor vs. multiple reactors), or more than an order of magnitude,
And the problem there is shoe horning RPC requirements into a hypermedia transport.

I feel we've made a big mistake following Google's micro service requirements for what should be a ubiquitous hypermedia back bone.

It's bewildering that so many smart people could end up conflating the two for our standard protocols.
I can't quibble with anything in the article except the title. There are too many viable alternative scenarios to call Darwin's idea "probably right."

Youtube-DL is the only working part about youtube right now. What a world. FOSS ftw
Its easy, but it uses 50% CPU idle and it would probably use more if it weren’t blocked on SD card writes (it uses 100% SD card bandwidth). I tested this multiple times on a RPI 3B this last week with different individual Pis and different SD cards. There are also many bug reports to the same general sentiment.

Knobs are just sliders using less space.

You need knobs and sliders to convey information visually.
Things weren't just slower, they were orders of magnitude slower. It's ridiculous how we've managed to make computers ludicrously fast and the developer response has been to keep adding garbage until they are slow again.

It's currently in Last Call, but if there's consensus to modify HTTP/3 that can be done at any point, although obviously doing it after it's actually published would be in the form of errata or a -bis RFC that modifies the standard. It's not extraordinary for something which has consensus to get done really late, even in AUTH48 (a notional "48 hours" for the authors of the document to fix any last little things that often lasts rather longer than two Earth days) if that's what people decide is necessary.

But "Blink doesn't want to do it" isn't consensus on its own, this page suggests other clients implement this and offers no opinion about whether they intend to likewise deprecate the feature.
All the software infra and processing was built years ago for Google Plus, so the ongoing engineering costs are minimal. The compute might be more than Backblaze, but it's predictable (the majority happens on upload) and it's a tiny tiny fraction of the cost of daily search indexing, YouTube, etc.

The costly thing for Google is storage and bandwidth to the storage (since it's hard to predict what can be kept cold-- but recognizing faces and objects can help). And those costs, as we see, are a drop in the bucket for Google. That's why I conjecture this move is much more about marketing and company culture and less about real technical constraints.

Not sure if this is serious or bad sarcasm? Hope you get some good glasses :)
Huh, weird. I was just able to start a video with youtube-dl + mpv (it took a few tries), but I still can't access anything from the website.
“ Those have semantics that go beyond how enumerations work in most languages and implementing them in the underlying JS is going to introduce some runtime cost.”

Do you think this runtime cost will make much of a difference compared to everything else that goes on in the code? My impression that in the last few years the pure code performance is so fast that it almost doesn’t matter much anymore. Of course unless you manage to do incredibly stupid things.
It seems what they really want is something that is not javascript.

The TS team was adamant they wanted to not be a runtime, i.e. it was JS + Typing only.

Partly I wish they just dumped ECMA and just made TS proper, but perhaps that's just Dart.

That's not the history of Ardour, really. You do need a team of people, however, if you want to make reasonable progress.

Also, I think any "on paper" description of a DAW that makes it appear that they "aren't that difficult" can just be ignored.
We had a twenty year old water heater that finally called it quits this past spring. My wife and I discussed paying the extra cost to "upgrade" to a tankless water heater. In the end our frugal nature won and we put in another cheaper tank heater.

Then in August we were hit by a Derecho (an inland hurricane). The entire city was without power for more than 10 days (some much longer) and temperatures in the upper nineties. The one saving grace was I still had a working water heater since it's gas powered.
I understand how you feel (personally, I really liked the book). I think it depends on your goal. If your goal is to just "get on with things" and essential read something more akin to a reference manual or a focused tutorial without any fluff, then yes, Why's guide is not appropriate.

While I enjoyed Why's guide, I found the Little Schemer book to be somewhat impenetrable in contrast. That book has a similar kind of style in the sense that it's in a non-traditional format and is widely praised, but I think it occupies the more intellectual / academic space than where Why's guide is targeted (that is, moreso at the regular Joe Blow programmer rather than someone who who lives and breathes everything CS). K&R seems to reach a good middle ground between practicality and whimsy.
I’ve been using Bulma a fair bit lately. I like it. But I’ve also just started using Tailwind too, it’s another level. One project I’m working on uses both which may get some frowns. Bulma is just quicker and easier for some things.
I think this is different than server push like WebSockets; this is all about pushing down resources the server suspects you'll need.
Their stock just went up.. reddit wallstreetbets calls stocks, stonks because they claim they're autistic.
In other words, the metadata service. The actual content servers are still up, so provided you know where the content is, you can still access it.

(Does anyone still remember when you could easily download videos from YT by simply replacing "watch" with "get_video" in the URL? I miss those days... when corporate greed hadn't gotten to where it is today.)

i’m playing with mailmate on macos and it’s making me hate email so much less.
Every couple of weeks I find myself wondering: "It's (insert year here), why no e-ink picture frames yet?".

Much as I like tinkering, I don't want a cobbled together raspberry pi plus lower power mamagement module with some alibaba special screen, all wrapped together with duct tape. I just want a nice looking consumer grade device, maybe 8x6" or thereabouts, reasonable resolution, grayscale is fine if necessary, an sd card slot where I can stick a load of jpegs and let it run with a photo change or two a day, with about six months in between recharges.

Is that too much to ask?

I'm sure the first company to do this is going to make a killing.
gRPC does not use PUSH_PROMISE. It uses HTTP/2 streams, but those streams all get initiated by the client.
I started out with Sam Aaron's Overtone, which completely blew my mind and reignited my musical interest. I got to a point where I was scratching the rough edges of it and I didn't want to follow him to Sonic Pi so I moved on to Ableton. It's awesome, leveled up my production game but the one thing I miss is the workflow of composing in a CIDER REPL, totally unbeatable. Guess I could just export the midi ... but I decided to buy a keyboard and learn to play keys.

This is the music I make[1]. The older, more piano-based songs are written in Overtone, and you'll here where they change up to be more textured and electronic sounding when I got into Ableton

> you obviously run your browser with extensions that block the loading of the vast majority of resources on the page until you whitelist them

I think most people do not do this on mobile. Even among the HN crowd. For example, on iPhone that I use, Safari does not support extensions. So for most people on mobile the site will download everything.
It's not really about the musical style, but about your desired workflow.

For example, Ardour really isn't designed around the sort of workflows that many people use for EDM/House production, yet it still has a reasonable number of prolific users who use it for precisely that style. Needless to say, the way they work is fairly different than someone using Bitwig or Live.
I highly recommend an impact wrench if you can afford one.
And you believe everything a politician says? His "plans" are not worth the paper they're written on, as far as I"m concerned. I don't think Biden is going to do anything at all, when it comes down to it. He's too far up in the pockets of corporate interests that don't want him to.
Yeah, that's odd. I figured it would be clocked higher as it can probably have the best cooling of all of the M1 devices.
I think the PhD is the only one that either you do it now or never. So, if you’re interested, I’d go for that.

Google will send you email offers for the rest of your life, so I’d keep it last in my list. You can also replace Google with many other co.

Startup I don’t recommend starting one unless you have a problem to solve and money. PhD can help you work on some good tech, but don’t forget about a good problem. Google can help you with money, but again you have many other options.
> There are people who think that Protonmail is a government front. I don't think so, but who am I?

It seems that many people have a wrong (read: unrealistically high) expectation of security on Protonmail to begin with. If you are just using Protonmail as a plain mail service, it's nearly as vulnerable as any other emails providers: all incoming mails can be monitored at the originator's mail provider, or at Protonmail, all outgoing mails can be monitored at Protonmail or at the receiver's mail provider. These security properties are natural conclusions from the architecture of SMTP. No backdoor is needed. If the government wants to subpoena your mail, they can simply require Protonmail to intercept all incoming traffic at the SMTP server before it's encrypted locally. Also, the fact that Protonmail is subjected to subpoenas is publicly announced on their website, and they state that they'll cooperate as far as the degree allowed by cryptography.

No backdoor conspiracy is even needed to begin with. End-of-end encryption is only used in-browser when you're sending mails to another Protonmail user.

Don't get me wrong. I use Protonmail and I'm a paying user. The only major advantage of Protonmail is data-at-rest encryption, once the plainmail arrives to your inbox, it's not possible to be leaked retroactively without your passphrase. And this advantage alone is enough for me to use it, since it's as insecure as any other mails at worst, and a bit more secure at best, I have nothing to lose. If a higher degree of security is desirable, it's still your own responsibility to use end-to-end encryption, preferable, one should also use Protonmail's official client (with source code) to access Protonmail locally, which ensures that malicious JavaScript can't be injected from the server side to reveal the passphrase to your inbox.

Finally, if you must find a credible conspiracy from it (I'm not a fan of doing it, 90% of the time the arguments are all vague "backdoor" or geopolitics rather than a technical security analysis), Protonmail can be considered a PR hack supported by the NSA that misleads non-technical users to think it as a silver bullet, thus actually impeding the progress of developing better end-to-end encryption for email communication.
I am not well-informed on this topic, but isn't men incorporating toxic things into their identity precisely what toxic masculinity is (i.e. to me it sounds like you do believe in toxic masculinity)?

Please correct me if I'm wrong. I want to learn.
gRPC does not use PUSH_PROMISE frames.
Cool, I came here to confirm that YT broken and not my local setup :-) HN is pretty reliable sometimes.
> No audio drivers on windows beat CoreAudio on macOS.

It's true that generally speaking CoreAudio drivers are better, but then you have RME drivers on Windows which are just as rock solid.
That's a lot of data, but I imagine if they operated with bandwidth restrictions, companies might limit themselves more in what they collect.

Though I do think that's within range of even the lowest possible LoRa bandwidth estimates since there's no realtime requirement.

A single remote click is a very small piece of data, even less than the 8-10 bytes that a datetime uses. Contextual data will likely be the larger portion, such as a unique system identifier, currently active application, and any metadata that provides. There are ways to limit that, like sending a context object once and giving it an id, then referencing the id instead of re-sending the same data repeatedly.

But even if that doesn't happen, the lack of realtime requirement means the data can simply be queued up to send over time. If a user generates a few kilobytes of data a second for hours by sitting on their remote control's channel switch button, they won't be that active forever. The device can eventually send out all of the data during the inactive periods.

Or it can prioritize which data to send first, or which to discard, when the queue reaches a certain threshold.
Fourth option - don't show dates or timestamps at all. The age of the actual article is what matters, and people can find that out by actually reading the article.

Would that not be viable?
Well the best thing is to in-line only the CSS needed for content actually in the server render if it’s much smaller than total site CSS. If you’re code splitting your CSS in the first place this is usually handled pretty well by the same mechanism. Then CSS is still cacheable across page loads for later navigation (particularly if you use a ServiceWorker in lieu of server rendering once enough core assets are cached).
There are reports on reddit about inability to download apps from Play Store, but I cannot verify.

Doesn’t Downdetector count only users who click on “I have a problem with [service]”? It would seem dumb if all charts moved together any time there is a major outage of a single service.
That's all understandable and I agree that they had the courage to go the 'other direction' and succeeded in doing so. And that's part of what makes Live special and what makes it fun to use, which I do on daily basis.

But for professional use, you do end up with a hundred or a few hundred track lanes in your projects, and mixing and tweaking the whole thing becomes an unavoidable disastrous chore.

If I understand this correctly, they planned on introducing it in Live 8 (hence a hidden flag in Options.txt which sort-of enables a preview of this feature but is extremely buggy), but it never fully worked out because they also introduced Racks with nested tree-like flow of plugins, which doesn't play well with a conventional matrix-like mixer view. That being said, I believe most pro users would be happy with a simplified solution like "if you fork a chain in a rack, its branches won't be shown in the mixer", which would cover the 95% of other simple use cases like, seeing where your compressors are at a glance without having to click on each track a hundred times...

There's many such things - like proper multi-screen support (e.g. with 3+ screens), which, hypothetically, could also couple well with a separate-window mixer view where they could introduce chain branching and all that (and become the first DAW to do that!). For pro use, there's lots of features like this that may sound boring but end up hampering your workflow a lot. It may not be as fun-sounding as 'yet another cool phaser bitcrusher spectral distortion plugin' but the reality is, professional users that they supposedly aim at do require core functionality that's been missing since the start.
Miegakure Update November 2020: art direction in 4D
I understand what you are saying, but if you really want to know I can draw a distinction.

So Leichtenstein is not in NATO, or the EU, while being geographically surrounded and it uses this flexibility opportunistically. It functions more-so as a vassal state of Switzerland, as it is not Switzerland either nor bound by its constitution or direct democracy, while using its currency directly via the Swiss Central Bank instead of the Euro. Leichtenstein lawyers arranged for the purchase and management of Crypto AG shares, this is no accident, and the entrepreneurs in Leichtenstein (the lawyers and many other services providers there) are willing participants in this geopolitical financial game.

Zug is nice because of the general optimization towards science and technologies. Cantons in Switzerland enjoy a high degree of autonomy and decision making while being relatively sparsly unpopulated. So getting something approved really means the agreement of the 2 people acting as regulator in a town of 100,000 people, and inheriting the brand and sovereignty of Switzerland. It is great for business, practically unparalleled.

Google has a strategy to destroy other platforms and replace them with Chrome.

It’s hardly obvious that this is best for users in the long run.

I point this out not to say it’s wrong for them to attempt this, but because it makes no sense to use Google’s strategic decisions as evidence of Apple’s intentions or investment.

(Clarification: I meant no 3-4GW(e) reactors, not clusters of reactors of that total aggregate output.)
And "competition" in this case isn't just other photo cloud service companies, it's also the entire habit and ability of offline bulk data handling. Having opted for a smartphone without microSD because storage was low priority, having favored the ISP when it was time to decide between spending money on more bandwidth and spending money on an NAS, these things. People have become addicted not only on the mental level.
Not OP, but I think what OP is referring to is the whole 'men are trash' narrative that we see in media and social media sometimes. The Gillette ad comes to mind as, to me at least, it legitimises and maybe even exaggerates how many males are toxic or have issues - to the point where a razor brand feels they need to step in and tell all men, "hey guys, be better." (could you imagine the backlash if a tampon brand did something like this to females?)

Let's be critical about this, maybe those particularly toxic males are actually exhibiting tendencies that are more to do with some sort of sociopathy rather than it being their a product purely of their gender?

On top of this, men are also given a lot of conflicting messaging - particularly as far as media and pop culture is concerned - on how they should behave. Couple this with the usual stats about the troubles men face and I can understand why parents are worried.
"Mille" is French for 1,000. So MM = 1,000 * 1,000. M is also used in advertising, like CPM: Cost Per Mille.

I don't have a baby, but I might have the need for a baby monitor. A sick family member who needs help sometimes in the middle of the night. Training TensorFlow to hear her yell "Help!" isn't going to do the job. For now, she reaches over to her phone, presses the home button, and says "Hey Google, call $familymember". It works, unless she can't reach her phone for any reason.

I had looked at this article wondering to see if it could be a valid replacement, but instead it's a very hopeful hobby project that I wouldn't trust anyone's safety to. It's definitely cool, but I think it's more suited for identifying a barking dog or a meowing kitten than a Human In Need, baby or otherwise.
