If you'd have actually read my comment til the end, you would understand why diet is actually important if we're talking about deforestation and climate change, and can't just be ignored.

There's two ways this story goes, humanity decides to consume less meat in the future, or climate change forces humanity to eat less meat in the future. There's no other option out of this, the current situation is absolutely unsustainable.

If your burn down chart says you'll be broke in 5 months, then you can either spend less, or you'll be forced to spend less once you're insolvent. There's no way to continue down that path forever.

Addicted in a heartbeat, greatly executed. I'll use before Google decides to remove it, or shutdown the entire Art and Culture department.
Also, RHEL is packaging pieces of software that are not under GPL/LGPL. With permissive licenses, they could probably heavily restrict source redistribution and availability.

If half the userland is not available as source (patch and packaging included), a CentOS-like project would not be possible.

Effectively, if RedHat/IBM wanted, there are a lot of dick moves which could effectively kill Rocky.
This is not to mention Bitcoin's biggest problem, which is its distribution. People like Roger Ver and Brock Pierce will not (and probably should not) be the richest people on Earth.

There is no distribution problem. Anyone with a smartphone or laptop can buy bitcoin, anywhere in the world where there's internet access. I've been using Cash App.

Despite this being a significant technical milestone, it does not have seemed to have caught the attention of HN much.
I’m looking at getting a Cintiq to go along with Blender but they are pricey.

I used to own a very nice Samsung tablet.. great screen but that’s it. I really don’t like any tweaking or UI window dressing which Samsung placed on top of android. A bunch of preloaded apps no one wants which can’t be uninstalled. They are still worth a look if you are only going to read PDFs or comics, watch Netflix. Stuff like that.

The problem with an Android tablet is that the google play store is a considerable downgrade from the iOS AppStore. I think that on a phone it’s less noticeable but on a tablet you begin to really miss out. No procreate, GarageBand, the Affinity apps, Photoshop is incoming, X-Com 2 just came out.. these are just a few big ones off the top of my head. Like if you play freemium arpg games then it won’t make a difference but like Divinity Original Sin 2 is coming out for iOS.

Not really looking to talk anyone out of buying an android tablet but the only two decent reasons to get one over an iPad would be piracy and avoiding an apple product just cause.

I own an iPad Pro 12.9. Love it.
The things you mention are causes of catastrophic security failures, not mitigations. 'Algorithm agility' (and related) is the source downgrade attacks, software that relies on cryptography tends to get broken computationally only after years of warnings about unsafe algorithms that are ignored, more often than not, due to over-reliance on standards both formal and de-facto.
"not that difficult" is plainly untrue depending on skill level, even in the absolute best case it's miles away from the ease that is offered here.

I pushed a new proof of concept to Github yesterday and deployed it in literally 3 clicks on Vercel.

Please show how to do this with AWS.

Then take a look at the features like preview deployments, CDN, environment variables etc. Does your solution cover all of them with the same ease?

I think people are crazy to accept abstraction on the machine layer but keep reinventing the wheel for the infra in the middle. These services let's you focus on the actual product.

That is concerning. How is Oracle Linux compared to Rocky Linux. Why not people use Oracle Linux which is a decent company backed product.
Unfortunate that the article ignores how Christians are told to prefer giving anonymously because that sends a signal to God that you're not doing it to improve your reputation with people (Matthew 6:3). Seems likely this influences enough people that it should be taken into account.
Just because there is now a multi-billion-dollar industry based on the abject betrayal of our privacy doesn’t mean the sociopaths who built it have any right whatsoever to continue getting away with it.

This is fair enough as it goes but remember it's coming from one of the biggest cheerleaders of a company that became the richest in the world while taking away user freedoms we used to take for granted on general purpose computing devices.

I'd love to see Facebook taken down several pegs but I think the rest of FAANG is overdue for some medicine too.
Why would that be anything more than a novelty? It completely misses the joy of sharing food and cooking.
Once you get out of the bigger cities, having a car is basically expected in the rest of Japan - layout and planning of smaller cities reflect this a lot. Car ownership can be really cheap as well - parking space is a major cost factor in Tokyo.

Not meaning to counter your point, just pointing out that there are some significant culture differences between metropolises/smaller cities/countryside within the same country
I work in inkscape a lot, and aesthetically like to keep things aligned on integers where possible. Makes it easier to edit by hand if needed, keeps things aligned, and keeps files small.

You have to be careful about when you move, scale, group, ungroup, etc. But I have found it pretty reasonable to stay on nice round numbers with inkscape. I feel like inkspace is BETTER for that than say illustrator.

Worst case you can export as "Optimized SVG" and reduce the number of decimals. Make sure you check it after though since it can change the design when rounding.
Designing and building a Mixed-Reality headset

Two and a half men is a great example of when this really becomes tricky. To the point that in later seasons the characters become more and more self-aware that they are stuck in a situation that is ridiculous and increasingly express frustration that they can't understand why. This especially comes to the fore after Charlie exits, when it seems the writers realised the situation was now so crazy they had little choice but to just play into it.

Alan in particular is also a great example of being flanderized from a down on his luck but somewhat normal person to a mooch prepared to do anything to stay in the house at even the cost of good own happiness, while giving up any pretense of wanting to work his way out of it.

Jake as well - in fact in the final episode they flat out state it in dialogue: Alan points out that Jake wasn't really dumb at first, but he was funnier dumb. (The final episode breaks the fourth wall a lot to point out many of these things)
How does that work? Does it automatically rotate the affected screen, or do you have to manually launch it?
I like articles like this that identify and address information gaps that aren't tackled by standard learning resources. Noticing these sorts of things that are just obvious to experts, because they picked them up over time, but are never explicitly explained to beginners, is a very useful skill.
I changed the title since the actual one is "I Made a 3D Holographic Headset!" which seems like a poor (and misleading) description. The device is a mixed reality headset and does not actually use holographic techniques.

The user manager directs things like user services. That can be things like starting pulseaudio on a desktop machine, for example, or gnupg on general systems so the user has a gnupg daemon available in their own UID space. This alleviates putting them into .rc or .profile files and making them hard to manage in case they fail.

In this case, GNUPG is trying and failing to start (likely misconfigured), this in turn means system failed to start the likely only user service configured, hence it fails the session setup. The session is still created (managed via logind) to provide a shell and PAM environment.

On a non-systemd this stuff would be managed by other scripts and tools that do essentially the same thing (minus being able to start user services).

It also creates a slice for the session, which enables systemd to kill all processes created in a session when the session ends (logout), minus some exceptions that can manage themselves (like Tmux). Helps against people who forget that they backgrounded and nohup'd a script (which isn't a good way to do things that are supposed to keep running).

If you want to see what services are available in your user session run 'systemctl --user'.
One big problem I think is this feature that streamers have figured out where you let viewers pay a few bucks of money and then they can use it for text-to-speech.

I had no idea what that meant. Found this article that explains it: https://www.businessinsider.com/how-to-set-up-text-to-speech...

"You can set up text-to-speech donations on Twitch through a widget called an 'Alert Box.' With text-to-speech donations enabled, viewers can attach messages to their donations, which will then be read aloud on your stream."

It notes: "You can also set up a blacklist of words that the text-to-speech robot won't read."
Since it hasn't been mentioned, Stan Kriventsov has very nicely summed up the paper on his blog: https://www.dl.reviews/2020/12/14/neural-networks-kernel-mac...
Yeah, that's mostly due to feminism as some of the already buried comments here point out. You only have to look back a short time and there was no such thing as "child care". The children were cared for by their mothers. Imagine that! A mother having time to raise her own children! Now they are "free" to be drones in the corporate machine instead and can't get out because the family needs that money. The children now get the privilege of being raised in a child care farm instead of by loving family. Oh, and nobody has time to cook or clean any more so it's ready meals and takeaways every night. What progress...

The time in my life when I read most was when I had a 45 minute rail commute.

This is a red herring. They don't have unique technologies. Just a very, very well done and accessible combination of best practices.

I have a bunch of apps on Vercel right now and zero worry that I will be able to deploy them somewhere else should they drop out for whatever reason. They are just Node/React apps.
> Can the company simply cut you off then?

Yes. They're offering you the service under a particular set of terms. If you don't like those terms then the company is not obliged to adjust it's terms to suit you (assuming the terms themselves are legal in the first place, for example they don't break anti-discrimination law). In theory you could try negotiating the terms with the company to something that is more favourable for you, but as an individual you're not going to have a lot of leverage to get a company like google to offer a service that's specially tailored just for you! Negotiating is a lot more common in B2B services though, where you can have a lot more money on the table so it's worth it for both parties.
Totally! Just worked around a few ESP32 issues, though at least their GH repo is full of discussions on various broken parts. Just had a SAMD processor routinely fail on me in a non-obvious way. It's annoying how segmented and walled off the embedded hardware types are as a field. Lots of hardware parts come their own idiosyncrasies. I wish Digikey/Mouser had a ratings/review system for parts.
They way they would ban it if they wanted to ban it would be to get the West to collectively tie its use to economic sanctions and also to specific individuals. Huge fine for use, restricted travel to the US and her allies, and punishing sanctions for financial systems or corporations that defect.

There you go. No more buying drugs on the dark web for 99.99% of the people that currently do so.
Fair point, and it was interesting to learn about MZM Money supply, which I wasn't aware of. I really hope we reach some platonic ideal of decentralization and decentralized value in the future. However, I'm not sure that Bitcoin is the right vehicle for this, or that price targets are a good way to measure these developments.

Advancements that make microloans easier to access for farmers in Peru or land ownership verifiable in rural Zambia are worth more to me than a lumbering deflationary asset class like Bitcoin. I also think this was the original "Satoshi vision," and having been in this space since before the hype started, it saddens me to see everything focused around price. IMO, price is a good measure only when it actually represents value created, and not speculation.

On an unrelated note, I like what you're doing with hook.vc! I'd be interested to get your feedback on a project I'm working on for decentralized scientific publishing. (Especially given that you've been through the academic/PhD pipeline.) Do you have an email?

Facebook is a terrible company. I recommend reading this recent Atlantic article comparing Facebook to the nuclear doomsday machine. It may be a bit overblown in it's comparison, but I think it makes some very valid points:

Propose another large Bitcoin rollback and see how the community reacts. The idea that the longest chain always wins has been a core value in Bitcoin since its inception; the manual rollback was a complete violation of that.

It was also necessary for success, but the Bitcoin community has little grounds for moral superiority here.
> Users can easily choose to keep providing Facebook (and anyone else) with all the information they want. Or they can choose not to.

This part hits the nail on the head. Facebook is intentionally being misleading in this campaign. I’ve had the IDFA turned off on my phone for years. Now apps have to ask for it individually. If apps have to prompt to access it, and this benefits small businesses so much, wouldn’t people agree to it with the right framing? Why doesn’t Facebook provide a method in its tracking SDKs that shows an interstitial about how this is good for small business before asking users if they want to be tracked?

Of course, Facebook would never do that. That’s because “informed consent” with adware doesn’t really exist... once people actually understand the scope of ad tracking networks... they don’t want it.

I’m not even against the concept of targeted advertising. Facebook’s first party properties are fine venues for it. I’m even (generally) ok with an advertiser retargeting me based on information they have about me. I wish that Facebook was prohibited from scooping up data in every other app I use and combining it with other data that they purchase. You can have targeted advertising without a massive surveillance dragnet.

Televisions in every room might not be "rich", but it isn't poor either.

I could see rich parents enforcing less TV-time though, giving more time for reading. My richest friend's parents didn't have a TV.
TBH I think the straw man here is taking that sentence literally, which I can’t imagine any sane person doing. The sentiment itself is idiomatic at this point.
There is far more to writing correct code than knowing the contents of undergraduate computer science inside and out; there is an entire world of software engineering where undergraduate computer science theory is damn near meaningless.

I mean, I worked at a medium sized medical device company (10,000+ people) (who was considered the gold standard of their industry in many respects) where you would be hard pressed to find a single person that wrote a lot of code who had anything but a Physics, EE or CpE degree; I honestly can't remember a single person who had a CS degree despite being on an algorithms team.

I can't even remember a single person at the scientific device company I worked at where their algorithms team had anything but PhDs in Physics.

Corruption. Those who profit on it have too much control over legislature. They extended copyright to insane lengths and they'll fight toot and nail against reducing it.
On top of all these companies want to run (commercial) software from other vendors, which sometimes is certified only on RHEL.
The key part of this announcement for me is the last sentence, where they announce a deal with Qualcomm for extended security update support.

While having compatible hardware APIs is clearly needed to get new Android versions out, we need devices to receive security updates promptly for their whole lifetime. That means for the claimed 4 years of support, you'll need monthly patches (since many of these vulnerabilities are critical and exploitable, and newer devices will get patches monthly).

I didn't see any suggestion of security patches for SoC components for the full 4 years, just "longer".

Another question this raises will be how many devices will launch a year or more into their supported lifespan - launching last year's SoC this year - and thus reducing their lifespan for the user.

From an environmental and sustainability perspective, we need to lengthen support periods, but from a commercial perspective, chipset vendors want to sell the next shiny chipset. Getting Treble somewhere towards ACPI/UEFI (you can boot Windows 10 or Linux 5.10 on pretty much any x86_64 system, even if the motherboard maker has abandoned it) as a standard hardware layer is one small step towards that, but there's still a long road ahead I fear.

> an important part of being a good parent is self-care

Kids (also) learn by example, by imitating their parents doing their own things. So, not only self care, but also your things. Obviously, common sense, a toddler requires more attention than a teenager, won’t read nor play piano right away. Some things, like playing music, cooking (and for whatever reason, vacuuming) seems to have early impact :)

My grandma bought the last apartment of a new block, and to her surprise it came fully furnished -- with all the crap the interior designer had chosen. It had been the one on show.

So the AV Club did a thing where they retroactively watched + reviewed all the Futurama episodes, and I think about their review of, you know, that one, Jurassic Bark, an awful lot. Not just because that episode is so emotionally devastating or because the review does justice to that and is emotionally devastating too, but because of this bit:

> I said “Jurassic Park” is manipulative, and I stand by that; the way the episode exploits its flashback structure to build to the most devastating possible conclusion is about as subtle as that Sarah McLachlan SPCA ad. Acknowledging this isn’t the same as criticizing it, though. Manipulation fails when it becomes noticeable, and when the audience resents the efforts made to drive them towards certain feelings. [...] Clumsy manipulation reveals a certain unearned arrogance, even contempt; look how easy it was for me to trick you, how vulnerable you are to control. This episode is more about empathy, and that ending — that uncompromising, agonizing ending — has no contempt in it. Just the knowledge that these things happen, and that we have to live with them.

Hololens is technically a headset, right? It gives you 47 pixels per degree, which exactly matches the CSS reference pixel of 96 DPI at 28 inches.

VR headsets are generally stuck in the mud at about 15 pixels per degree.
