Slam dunk response. This is exactly my problem with how so many developer tools and services are branded. Just give it to me plain, please.
Well, Honestly, this is a great point.

However, I don't think I owe you all an apology, and you'll notice that I never asked anybody for an apology for using "fall on deaf ears" or anything else. I did say we should practice radical compassion and if somebody says to us "hey this phrase bugs me or hurts my feelings" there's very few reasons I can imagine why we shouldn't accept that and consider using different language.

I'm happy to trade "live my life" for "walk in my shoes" in order to make folks who use wheelchairs feel more included in my communities. Why not? What do I lose? It's not like "walk in my shoes" is some deeply important idiom to me and if I never say it again I will be forever a less-happy person.

While I agree there is an unfilled need after the end of Flash, is the problem really a matter of technology or is it just that nobody has produced a vector animation editor as easy/accessible as the Flash software was? Clearly all the pieces are in place to do everything Flash can do if you can emulate Flash at full speed entirely in the browser.
Canvas should aim to be as close as possible to this. I think with a bit better animation support they would be there, but I really don't know much about the domain.
Because developers use Mac, and they’re doing a complete transition. Majority of Windows installations are still on x86.
Which part do you object to in particular? That somehow being an office drone isn't a great purpose for life, or that he mentioned cultural awareness via the trigger word hijab?
All that flexibility only has use when the TypeScript code needs to interact with something terribly unruly: JavaScript code or some API that isn't typed properly. While it's nice that you can model in your code, it brings the distinct possibility that people will start using it to write very sloppy types and/or patch things up afterwards, leading to worse code.
This is actually a good point I glossed over and is completely correct.

You can access the host via its IP but you can fall into application level "not localhost" security checks (Chrome for example).

You also have to know that the guest has a different IP to the host and while I can lean on my experience with virtualisation to understand and maybe find a way around the issue, it's an example of the incongruence of WSL2. What you see is definitely not what you get.

It's not a fair bar to set for most engineers, especially those who have recently entered the industry or are trying Linux (bash via WSL) for the first time.
> what these numbers and the media and your average joe terrified of dying seem to miss is something thats qualitative, not quantitative: quality of life.

What? What led you to come up with that absurd baseless assertion? I see or saw no such thing ever anywhere. Ever.

What I do see is people forced to social distancing and into lockdowns because irresponsible, egocentric, and outright sociopath people have been perpetually and actively contributing for the disease to spread far and wide due to their apalling behavior.

How you should use a VPN?
>EDIT: not sure why this is downvoted..

Antarctica is basically inaccessible for the winter half of the year - sending a plane is possible (for some parts of the winter), but it's so fantastically dangerous that you risk losing the plane and killing an entire flight crew, so you only do it if there's absolutely no other choice. Saying "under allow no conditions where a person cannot choose to leave" is rather naive. If someone is disturbed to the point they pose a threat to life safety (including damage to the station that might affect habitability) then you're better off locking them up until the summer when they can be collected safely - it's inhumane, but at least you won't risk getting other people killed trying to accommodate them.

Similarly, you can't just say they should build bigger stations - crew morale and comfort are important factors, but at the end of the day practicality and survivability is king. You can't just order some building supplies and throw a house up in a couple of months - building supplies and tools have to be offloaded at the coast by ship and carried overland to the building site, buildings have to have appropriate HVAC for heating and conditioning the large spaces that require more power and thus more generation capacity, which means having to store more supplies, so you need to build more storage structures... saying "just build bigger" shows a profound lack of respect for the realities of working in one of the harshest and most unforgiving environments on the planet.
> Serif fonts usually have more legibility at the cost of aesthetic.

Is that true? Aesthetic is subjective. And for legibility, I always heard that serif is better for print, while sans serif is better for screens.

Oh sure. I think it's important too. Just that people misuse it which is probably why they get locked.
OpenGL 1 was very straightforward, and if you want, you can still use it.

Recent version of OpenGL are more difficult. But compared to OpenGL, Vulkan is in an entirely different class of difficulty.
what does everyone think about google having a vpn though? It feels a bit weird knowing that we hide from google, but a lot of people are a pretty optimistic about this
Because you should be comparing the aggregate of all readers versus the content publisher.

Also, what’s with calling people monkeys? I’m sure many coders here produce stuff that is as questionable in value as what ad executives do.

People need to put food on the table and it’s abhorrent to think of yourself better than an another person because you build data pipelines in Scala that the universe doesn’t give a shit about.
That is amazing.

In reverse, on Linux I'd surely prefer to use Wine to run Windows programs, instead of using a VM.

> But keeping WSL 1 running is a monumental effort due to the need to keep up with Linux changes.

That's what Wine has been doing for years - keeping with up with Windows changes. And it's indeed a monumental effort for such compatibility layers.

It's mostly due to the fact that unlike Microsoft, Apple is doing a complete migration to ARM. The developers have to migrate to ARM because they cannot just tell users to buy x86 macs like they could do for windows
AAPL is at its all time high too. Doesn’t do anything for the people who invested in pets.com 20 years ago. There’s a lot more absolute shitcoins than successful ones.

I actually quite like the part where you have to wait to get all types of armor etc. It makes you actually use more variety of tools than using one type for the whole game

Wondering if we see a few less major electron apps on Apple silicon as companies can share their swift codebases a few different ways.
I really appreciate your thoughtful take here. One thing I think is important to note is that I don't want, and I don't think any hearing impaired person would want (though I can't speak for all of them) for you to spend really any time feeling guilty about a potential offense you might have caused.

What I'm advocating for is radical compassion and empathy. When you hear somebody say "this thing can hurt me" worry less about all the times you were involved in that, and consider more how you can help folks avoid that harm in the future.

That's not to say we should ever introspect. I noticed that with a friend of mine who recently came out as trans I was still often using gendered language "dude, man, etc" from before they came out, even if I usually got their pronouns right. They didn't ask me, but the introspection I was doing prompted me to offer them an apology and commit to doing better about those kinds of things. That has brought us closer and given me a better perspective for being a good friend and ally to them.

I don't think anybody thinks you're trying to be a jerk, or intentionally seeking to hurt people's feelings. What I'm reacting to is a vocal minority of folks, often in tech, who seem to react to being told "Hey, this thing sometimes hurts my feelings when I notice it" with "How dare you accuse me of being literally Darth Vader. This is THOUGHT POLICING."

Just... try your best to be kind to people. If that means you're the CEO of github and you can change "master" to "main" why the heck wouldn't you?

By exclusionary, I mean it excludes people, not words.

But if ñ is so important, then so are capital letters because "Olive" is a person and "olive" is a fruit. Imagine typing English without capital letters.

> VCs compete for dealflow because dealflow is limited due to many currently unnecessary and expensive regulations

This is way off. At the growth capital level, terms for QPs ($5+ million) and QIBs ($100+ million) are night and day. (Accredited investors aren’t on the field. To say nothing of smaller fish.)

This partly stems from liability. Small investors have an easier time convincing regulators, judges and juries they got screwed and deserve compensation. It also deals with sophistication. A complex win-win structure might not market well, but they regularly happen with hedge funds.

But it is mostly about efficiency. A single institutional investor setting deal terms will fill the rest of the deal on their brand. That lets you negotiate once and be certain of closing. You get a tight list of LPs or investors and know no cheques will bounce. If someone misbehaves, you can complain to the lead who will tell them to knock it off or risk losing future deal flow.

Capital markets have economies of scale. Just looking at venture secondary markets, pricing on SharesPost and EquityZen is regularly 20% to 50% worse than what even a moderate cheque writer could get. And that’s before considering the preferences on better classes of stock.

I found the presser released by the campaign's legal team more informative than anything released by the media outlets. Agree or disagree, at least their own words accurately describe their position. That's not to say there isn't room for skepticism around their specific claims.

Interestingly, there's been a consensus in the media to misrepresent, editorialize or outright ignore the actual statements of the legal team.

I said this to another commenter who pointed out that "walk in my shoes" could be excluding language to folks who are paraplegic, I'm honestly happy to hear this feedback and consider using more inclusive language.

Frankly this is good feedback simply from a precise communication perspective. We often use special metaphors when we mean to describe complexity, and "trivial" would more easily communicate what I meant regardless.

This came up recently in my romantic relationship: I used "small" to describe an emotional feeling I was having and it did hurt the feelings of my partner, who is short. They didn't like that size was used to describe a negative emotion and I appreciated that they shared that with me and gave me an opportunity to think about a more precise way of communicating my feelings that didn't connect a negative connotation to something they identified with.

Why is this so hard to understand that I would seek to live this way? I think we should be excited to practice radical compassion with each other.
I think the significant advent is the M1 chip itself. I was never interested in Win10 ARM edition until the prospect of running it on an M1 Mac. Unfortunately it looks like Apple have taken this opportunity to drop support for alternative OSes entirely.
This keybinding is meant to be used inside Emacs.

Furthermore, wasn't Google talking about phasing out and replacing user-agent strings? User-agent leaks data and is somewhat fingerprintable, so the idea was to further genericise Chrome UA strings and adopt a new standard for sharing data about the client.

Thank you! Given that, why is it so difficult to assume that folks might be making a genuine argument with respect to "master/main"?
This sounds correct to my knowledge, but I can’t help but wonder if there’s a substantive difference between the Microsoft and Apple ARM transitions that’s not obvious to me.
The diagnosis of the fact that it is a systemic issue is certainly accurate in my eyes. We need a system of incentives that would make the class of people that you identify as "HN contributors" to feel that the cost of their cowardice and complicity is greater than the affluence and power that they obtain by going along with the system that they are beneficiaries of.
Oh weird, I will have a look to it !
Without this (assuming Rosetta 2 support was ironed out), the code generated by JITing JavaScript would also need to go through translation from x86 to ARM64.
Well most people use their VPN for bypassing school/work site restrictions and pirating movies. For those two purposes the Google One VPN is probably fine.
I think the article is well balanced for when you can use a mesh and what the actual problem (heterogeneous tools) is.

What I think is missing is, that there is an underlying assumption that you can tweak each software you have in your environment, which might not be the case when you use paid software + self-programmed software + SaaS. The burden to configure each software to have tracing or mTLS is higher than finding out how each software might handle HTTP_PROXY.

So yeah, I am a big fan of gRPC with contexts, deadlines client certificates, but in an integrated heterogeneous environment you can only do so much.

At least this is my current understanding. If somebody has better/other experiences please help :)
Just a quick look into Swift's history to remind everyone why it's great
That actually happens more than you might think. I've worked at a couple of open source product companies in the data management field. In both cases we had deals from corporate users who wanted to ensure we would continue to maintain software they liked. The sums are not small either--I've seen them run into hundreds of thousands USD.

It definitely helps keep the lights on--and also helps justify the open source model to investors and the like. (Anyone reading this who has done such a deal, y'all rock.)
What's the environmental impact of CCF?

There's such a thing as 'green concrete' but the way its marketed smells like a pending dieselgate.

> Extripating the virus completely from the population, and keeping it out through total physical isolation of that population from the rest of the world, is a tall task.

The goal is not to erradicar the disease. The goal is to take basic measures so that it's incidence and transmission rate are kept low.

Spain achieved that during the first wave, where in a matter of weeks they managed to get the fatality rate from hundreds per day to the single digits, even achieving days without covid-related deaths.

If the disease is contained, we not only avoid the chance of being infected but we also have a shot at normality.

If the disease is not contained and allowed to ravage the world then all we get is the despair of having people dying left and right while hospitals are saturated far beyond capacity and unable to respond to any need.

Funny, because that's what I've always considered of Electron. I wonder where the breaking point for Electron is?
So far there have been two ways to to heavy compute tasks on GPUs: CUDA (Nvidia only) and OpenCL (all vendors). Nvidia invested a lot in software and toolchains to make CUDA the go to option for many projects (especially in the machine learning community). Meanwhile OpenCL is falling apart and sees less and less support and updates.

However, the Vulkan API which is also supported by most vendors (except Apple where you have to use a compatibility layer called MoltenVK) is gaining traction in the compute sector. If you trust the benchmarks, then this library here is showing that you can get a similar performance out of Vulkan compute than what you would expect from CUDA. It is just that this library only provides a very small fraction of the features of what the CUDA ecosystem does, so the Vulkan compute ecosystem still has a lot catching up to do.

Edit: In case it is not obvious from the title, the library is used to calculate the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fast_Fourier_transform
I’m guessing Electron apps worked without explicit support via Rosetta 2, but with explicit support the performance should be better. And - speculating - I’d guess that there’s quite a lot of code in Electron apps that isn’t AOTed by Rosetta, and that it would have more performance implications there than a native x86 Mac App would just because it has a lot of ongoing transpilation to do. With this change they can cut out Rosetta 2, and run direct on ARM.
So far, I've always used MathPad for these kind of things (not the MathPad currently in the App Store, but the one written by Mark Widholm). That's an ancient application: first version was 1993, the latest version (3.0.4) dates from 2012, but it still runs on Catalina. It doesn't have the "English-ish" features of numi, but for simple, sequential calculations, it looks very similar. Apart from that, it can read files, plot in 2D and 3D, and read files.

But I'm definitely going to take a look of the two you mentioned.

How to get hi-res Zoom video for under $200
Well you kinda solidify my argument that we don't expect people to be moral, at least not 100% or not even 50%. We expect them not to break society's rules, and whatever capitalism allows - they can do, with no social stigma. We give each other a free pass because we know change is hard (is that the functioning of a society striving to be moral?)
Now whatever capitalism allows - meat, unbridled consumerism, extreme selfishness etc, these are things with severe side effects. In the case of buying clothes the suffering is a bit more subtle (I suppose you refer to worker's conditions in poor countries), and since it's paying for someone's job somewhere you could argue it's in the grey area.
But the meat industry isn't in the grey area, it couldn't be more black than it is.
For the server itself, a lot of people use providers with cheap bandwidth like OVH and Hetzner. Digital ocean is great but it's still bill by your bandwidth usage, probably not ideal to host video contents that can rack up a lot of bandwidth usage.

As for the application itself, just use ffmpeg to convert hls/dash and just dump it behind nginx, no need for fancy stuff imo.

Cloudflare stream is also a relatively cheap alternative to host your video if you do a lot of video embedding on your site. I heard that some school networks block it, but other than that it's been working great and I've been using for one of my client to host their private lecture videos.

Vimeo is also a great alternative and relatively cheap too. My only gripes is it's blocked in certain countries, but otherwise it's fine if you don't care to serve visitors from those countries.
That's because Vulkan is designed to render millions of triangles, not one.

You wouldn't use Vulkan to render a single triangle for the same reasons why you wouldn't use a helicopter to get a bottle of milk from your local shop.
