Did you read this part?

> This is why the UNIX philosophy of distributing only source code and building locally for apps is important. You can never 100% know [...], but at least you have the opportunity to self audit.

My comment was a reply to "distributing only source code and building locally for apps is important", and I pointed that reproducible builds enabled an alternative method to achieve the same without requiring everyone to rebuild from scratch (which is arguably worse from the perspective of uncertainty). And that's all. I didn't have anything to say on the audit question.

But if you want to nitpick, yes, this reply is incomplete, and to defend my comment properly, I should've quoted the first (and only the first sentence) from the comment which I was replying to clarify my point. On the other hand, I think it would be painful to do a full-time proofreading of every single comment I'm going to make.
I think the reality is between Apple, Google, and Microsoft, their core feature is being given away for free or packaged with existing devices that ppl are buying anyway. Then they’re further integrated into those services. This is on top of a move away from files towards mobile and cloud computing, in addition to hitting a wall with consumers who want/need a Dropbox client and at the prices Dropbox sets. They have to have the business users to sustain themselves, and those business users want collaboration tools as a differentiator to not jump ship.

Dropbox is in a bad spot, I think in part because they haven’t focused deeply enough on real collaboration tools or other related product spaces.
Downdetector also shows increased error rates for Search, Play, Facebook, Netflix, Twitter, Spotify, Twitch…

What’s going on?
It's debatable whether the work turned it was exactly the same. Even if teachers were rewarding other skills (eg: good behaviour), the teachers are setting the bar.

It's not like grades are that relevant to someone's life anyway.
To be honest, the only thing I want for my kids out of school is socialisation with kids their age and being exposed to basic scientific knowledge.
Most of the stuff I learned in school went out of my brain the second I didn't need it, anyway. What I retained is only what I still need or found interesting, and I probably remember it only because I did some personal study on it, because I liked the subject matter.

Instead of finding a gender appropriate way or fair way of grading kids, I think we should get rid of grading and the school system entirely.
It can be replaced entirely with project based learning. You can still have some form of curriculum, a selection of different projects that require different skills.
If you want to prove to a company you know classical mechanics physics, point them out to your "rocket project" in which you proved your knowledge of physics. Algebra? I developed a 2d game.

You may have a few teachers around to help but no frontal lessons. Everyone work on their projects and is surrounded by their peers and a few teachers you can turn to in case you need help.
Youtube TV is down for me as well
.. and I just managed to get the YouTube app on Android to play an ad. That's two for two of the annoying things that are still (sorta) working. ;)
I feel sorry for this guy that he has to bend over backwards to please Apple just to stay in business.
As of 2020, Alaska, Florida, Nevada, South Dakota, Texas, Washington, and Wyoming levy no personal income tax.

Are you actually okay with disenfranchising voters in all of these states?
It really is a pretentiousness held in a group of language zealots.

You don’t hear the same about Nim, for example(yet?), In my experience.

I don’t deny Ruby’s impact on the industry I just have a hard time with the attitudes prevalent in the devs I’ve worked with... it is strikingly stereotypical.
I am using i9 9900k @5GHz so I think it is quite fast. The plugins I use are CPU heavy and you can run limited number of them on a single core. I am not interested in low latency - I am running 1024 buffer, however I would like my projects to play smoothly even if there is latency. Ableton unfortunately does not work well with such use case as it won't parallelise where it could and sandboxing does just that and I can run more plugins, even if it seems less efficient.
yep. thinking it over, that makes more sense. amended my comment

I recommend a simple audio one. Video is unnecessary.

It’s easier to hand off to babysitters, “just works”, and honestly your kids not gonna die because you dont have a 24/7 video feed of them. Just make sure the bed they’re in is the right kind (nothing to get tangled or entrapped in).
"like lisp"?

The high quality free IDE (SLIME) is a big part of why I still use common lisp.
Oh I’ve had my internet troubles fixed several times by going to that domain.

Now to be fair, When in a meeting, I’ve al had to track down the kids and all devises that could possibly access YouTube.

After a really bad hour of Zoom; I leaned that you can watch YouTube on the switch. Clever kids.

I locked away a 10 year kindle just out of principe for that one.
Electron isn't any slower than any other app. Might use an extra 100MB of RAM but that's like $5...

Almost half of all marriages result in divorce, so Craigslist is a good place to start. You'll want to have the item evaluated at a reputable jeweler, and work out a fee in advance, but you can save a fortune that way. I think the mindset for a lot of sellers is that they just want to put their past behind them and aren't concerned with getting top dollar.
I'm not writing it right now, but have never had trouble find really high quality work (in NYC and elsewhere). The community is active and generally very friendly/positive.

The ecosystem is obviously rails-heavy, and you have to like that, but the skills translate to python jobs well too, and rails has done a good job both keeping up with modern trends and staying modular.

I don’t think anyone is going to stop using YouTube because of a small downtime. There is really no alternative to it out there.

I bought a 7.5-inch eink screen from Amazon, put it in a photo frame, and programmed it to show my todo list so that I could check the list without turn on my laptop.

It is pretty good. The only thing that annoys me is that when it refreshes, the screen flashes (in back and white) multiple times, which disturbs me.

Ask HN: Most hassle-free Linux distro?
Whenever I try and use Linux as a dev environment I find myself repeatedly distracted by small issues here and there that I have to take an hour to research and solve. Despite that, the idea of having a Unix dev environment on my desktop machine continues to hold appeal.

So, what's the most straightforward, "just-works" Linux distro out there today? Historically I've used Ubuntu which isn't terrible but never stops requiring a bit of fiddling here and there. I've heard good things about PopOS, Elementary, and Mint, but I've never tried to use any of them for real work.

No op, but I’m curious. I’ve often been interested in economic thinking from a systems perspective. Ive read several books about behavioral economics and it seems fascinating but the books seem more pop-sci than textbook style and I don’t feel like there is much to take away at the end of it.

Any thoughts on resources in that direction? I’m not as much interested in the math as the abstractions around it (though I wouldn’t be against digging into the math on occasion)

Ableton is easy enough to use that you can have fun with it immediately. I think I could have worked out your question about syncing an mp3 within the first hour of using it. Warp is on by default for any audio you bring in.

If you're not prepared to spend some time learning how to use it, then maybe the whole thing is not for you. Most people enjoy the whole process.

You are being unrealistic if you think that just because Ableton runs on a computer means everything about it should be automatic. Ableton is a professional level DAW and as such has a lot of complexity under the hood.

Ordinary musical instruments only have a few knobs and take a lifetime to master. I don't know why you would suppose it should be any easier to master Ableton which has literally thousands of knobs?
Even if it’s just the openness of the customization, I’d still like to see that

There is a lot of room for better help for mechanics. Most of it is distributed as long-winded YouTube videos, and it's the wrong medium. Everything else is lost in the noise on various forums.

I'd love something like ifixit for other fields and I can't possibly be alone. I want answers that aren't hidden in a 30 minute 480p video of a mumbling dad.

Here's an example of what I mean, since I just finished it: https://nicolasbouliane.com/blog/v-strom-650-heated-grips

Knowledge is power, and it's dirt-cheap to mass produce. I wish more people casually documented how they repair things.

I think adding a gendered twist to it would be great too. We shouldn't deprive an entire gender from the satisfaction of fixing things with their own hands. It's too good an experience to pass on.

I seriously hope you get started on that.
I was suspecting something similar since I run heavy ad blocking.
If you think the barrier to you passing a coding exercise right now is enthusiasm or cognitive... do you think you'd nevertheless be up to faking the rest of a qualitative interview process, so well that a savvy person didn't get a sense of the barrier?

The nature of email means the to/from/subject fields are always in the clear.

You'd certainly make a big name for yourself proving them wrong.

I have a 2-hour-long YouTube video still open, it's continuing to load as I continue to watch it without issues, but new videos aren't working. That's an interesting clue: the CDN isn't down as some people are implying.

I hope you've not 'just' ordered. My order from November 1 got pushed back further, this time to 29 January, today.
That's not what the term "directed acyclic graph" means. "Directed acyclic graph" means that a digraph has no directed cycles, not that it's a directed graph with no undirected cycles. Otherwise the term would just mean a digraph which forms a forest.
You always pay for using Google products.

When it's in their interest to make it free - to drive usage or gather data to train AI, you pay with your data.

Once that data is no longer of any value they then make you pay with cash. Google Maps API, soon reCaptcha are other products that started out free.

Ever tried a search you may have done 5,10 years ago?
Good luck finding obscure old stuff in Google's index even if it still exists - they just don't keep everything forever once it can't have advertising put against it.
Does anyone want to try to calculate how much money google is losing every second YouTube is down? It must be astronomical, on the order of Amazon.

It probably depends on the pricing model. The rental truck company has to balance costs of relocating trucks back into SF after one is removed on top of the lost business of local moves where that truck could have potentially been used for multiple local moves during the time it's being repositioned to better markets.
Thanks for the link - but that is quite a lot smaller at 10 inches vs. 32 inches so the price comparison isn't quite like for like.
Maybe speedtest.net downloads a YouTube video to measure your speed /s
We are talking about effective ways of doing so.
Scale matters a lot. e-ink form factors that are used in consumer products have gotten much cheaper.

The smaller 2-3 inch ones (like what some stores use for their pricetags) are only a few dollars. You can find tablet sized displays for ~50 dollars. I eink is often the best choice, especially if you care about power consumption (like a hobbyist project on batteries) and a less obnoxious aesthetic (backlights in dark rooms are annoying).
Thinking about a theoretical SQLite database running on an SSD like this as a HA database for server-based systems is a poor design and a mistake. It would be a poor design even without the FPGA; SQLite simply isn't a HA replicated database.

Something like SQLite might make a decent alternative API to the flash storage layer of the SSD, though. Imagine if the storage controller of your SSD exposed a built "filesystem" that featured robust indexes, transactions, sorting, column families, etc. You could skip talking to the Linux block layer or any POSIX filesystem at all, and your optimized userspace software could directly talk to the storage controller in the SSD instead with a high level software API. This isn't far-fetched; Samsung also has a "Key-Value SSD" on the way that exposes the underlying flash storage using a (surprise!) high-level get/set KV API, for similar reasons.

A design where the controller is this powerful would also allow features like predicate pushdown in the query planner to be implemented. i.e., a `WHERE x > 7` can get pushed into the storage controller, and bad tuples that don't fit the predicate can get excluded/filtered out before getting pushed onto the memory bus. That will save significant processing time and memory bus traffic in aggregate, and it scales with the number of drives (such each drive has its own controller.) Not to mention tricks like inline hardware for sorting, compression, etc.

Outside of fancy SQLite-as-a-filesystem tricks, I suspect the allure of optimizations like predicate pushdown and inline sorting will be very attractive for OLAP systems. Time will tell if these things will stick around, but Xilinx at least seems sure as hell determined to make their way into the datacenter.
Oh ok, no problem, thanks for the input.

Decent Espresso uses AndroWish for their software found here(scroll down for screenshots): https://decentespresso.com/downloads

A talk on it can also be found here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ey30Cg1fM0Q

Those screenshots on Androwish's site appear to all be using the base theme. Tk is completely themeable and is pretty easy to extend. There is a repo that is making a large collection of open source themes available for tk and tkinter found here: https://github.com/TkinterEP/ttkthemes.

Another nice theme is a port of KDEs breeze theme:

It might not be fast or pretty but I agree there will be emulation. Anyone remember PearPC?
Networking would be a likely cause.

Usually this type of site-wide outage is always related to networking.

BGP, not sure. Google practices SDN. So their software error can rekt a large chunk of infrastructure...

Well on the plus side we now have figures for the annual electricity cost of both the 32" model and the larger 55" model. $100/year is probably still more than I'd want to pay on a picture frame though, I gotta say. That's about the same cost as basic Netflix.
Pick up some libertarian and conservatives outlets?

I'm neither a conservative or a liberal but I read both and some libertarian stuff on top (unfortunately there is not enough around).

Liberal news are hilarious in their portrayal of reality, it feels like I'm reading someone's opinion all the time. Over years that opinion can change drastically and nobody bats an eye (eg: the russians easily hacked the election, that's why the bad guy won - it's almost impossible for someone to hack the election, that's why the bad guy lost).
They also promote all the trendy family destroying / sexual liberation stuff which was my kool aid as a teenager and that I find depressing and socially damaging nowadays.
On top of this they push for governments to hoard more money to redistribute to the people they like, which is just appaling.
In the last years they started being incredibly anti free speech and limiting personal freedom (taxes on alchohol, sugar, etc) which I find jarring and totally opposed to all the personal freedom they talk about (eg. on drugs).

Conservatives news are much more data and fact based and they have a passion for debating. I'm grossed out by how much religious they are (which is not proven by facts by definition) and by how much they like to have the government tell people what is legal and what is not (outside of someone damaging someone else). I don't see why anyone should tell

Libertarian news is again, very fact based, very coherent, nobody talks about religion, they support drugs and personal freedom, it's the perfect mix of economic freedom and personal freedom.
Too bad nobody votes for them.
You can firewall their devices. I used to do that to my dad's cloud-based cameras back when I was in highschool. He never figured it out. Always assumed it was the ISP's fault.
I understand that US banks are not in an enviable position here. As the article mentions, they don't want to run afoul of US sanctions towards Venezuela by facilitating transfers between people connected to Maduro. Still, I hope that they do not crack down too tightly and allow Venezuelans to continue to use their services. With their local currency effectively worthless, being able to transact in dollars is literally a lifeline for many people. (Unfortunately there are many more who don't have even that)
