Absolutely. I mean I love getting a good wfh job but in my plans I could leave the home part now and then haha

I've had two mental state crashes so far where I just end up completely cba getting out of bed levels of burned out for a week. It doesn't help I'm at a pretty small agency that feels it if I take surprise time off, so I feel guilty about that on top of it all haha -- incidentally I have had a chat with my doctor and we adjusted a few things. The citalopram has taken the edge off for now!

How're you doing mate? Sincerely hope you're able to get something from the comments as I'm about to try now! :)

e: just realised you're using a throwaway. Fuck it must be hard for you lot over in the US, at-will and medical bills etc. Best of luck all, truly.
In which the DNSSEC bit is misused as a flag.
Here they ask if you have alarm or immobilizer. They offer a discount because they work, statistically.

Over time fewer cars have audible alarms, but most have at least basic immobilizers these days. I think all the north american vehicles after late 90s early 00s have at least a basic immobilizer.

Ask HN: Do you use node-red in production?
node-red is a low code framework that lets you hook up blocks together, and you can also implement your own blocks, either as external packages or as functions implemented inline in the editor.

I've recently come across it and discovered that it is apparently used in production by some, but have been mostly unable to find people explaining their non-home automation use case.

Do you use it in prod? What is your use case? Would you still make the choice to use it, having experience with it? What benefits and what compromises did it bring?
But how much was it relative to the total volume of concrete?
Saying that selling someone a product they like and want at a reasonable price is just the same as ruthlessly running a dictatorship in a poor third world nation is another level of pretentious privilege. How can even you compare the two in good faith?
I love these conversations. As I've said in about 3 other places now - these are the side effects of automation. It didn't use to be like this because it was not possible - and reddit was in many ways MUCH worse. You couldn't ban known bigots or racists because they would be back with an alt.

The presence of harassment and hate speech has a chilling effect on normal users - they aren't here to engage or fight nazism.

Without effective moderation, you will end up with Godwin's law applied to all convos.

But with automation you can ban hate speech! Awesome! You can stop bigotry and harassment! Brilliant!

You can enforce ideological views over your sub and crush dissent - whoops?

No, you cannot escape this conundrum - tools will be misused. The issue then becomes one of ethics and the appropriateness of the force used.
Just because we(japanese) don't know much about foreign people's race so tend to distinguish by color because of ignorance.

One of our primary competitor posted stupid things about my business. I can't comment. It's taking on Google now. Any suggestions?
Unrelated, but what do you write? (Feel free to contact me on Keybase if you prefer, username is in profile.)
What is the benefit of this over let's say gitlab ci?
I am that person. I moved away from Brave because its still chrome/chromium based. I am also not confident in their "blockchain" advertising model and don't trust they are actually any less private with my data than chrome/chromium.

It would be cool to see IPFS integrated and enabled by default on all browsers. I doubt Google would ever take the leap, but maybe Mozilla would. I also have doubt that Microsoft would but they would be more willing than Google. Anyways, I hope this can happen before Mozilla's market share shrinks more.
> I wish these folks trashing apple spent even 10% of their effort on the cheapo android phone companies.

And here we're back to that magic word, whataboutism.

The Android Market is largely dominated by Samsung and a bunch of Chinese players (Huawei, OPPO, Xiaomi, One Plus, etc.). I haven't seen people use a Google phone since forever. Samsung has already left China, and is only involving the Chinese supply chain at an arms' length. The other firms will continue their abhorrent practices anyways.

The point of the article is that Apple, being an American company, constantly extolling about virtuous they are, took a bit too long to shift. Sure, it's justifiable and even inevitable to take that long. But people tend to hold trillion dollar American companies to a much higher standard than they do a bunch of Chinese copycats. Yes, they should hold Google to the same standards too if it happened, but it would be impossible to do anything against the Chinese firms but fart in the wind since they practically don't care enough to change.

You're absolutely right, unfettered capitalism is at the root of all this. I just wanted to point out that technology is not exempt, seeing as SV-style idealists seem to think technology will solve the world's problems.
Founder here again!

Just wanted to thank everyone again for all the candid feedback. It’s been super helpful. We’ve already made a few changes including adding a lower price point with a “no prizes” option and other copy updates. We’re also hard at work to add more compelling social proof.

i have measured several models and not witnessed this
It’s not all right people, it’s the more reactionary racist types, who inhabit the right wing media outlets.... end of the day, those folks don’t want certain people voting.
i keep saying this everywhere i go and anytime i get an opportunity to communicate this. because. urgency. california has basically bankrupted the state's commons and natural resources for the claim to fame of being the biggest ag economy in the usa.

california has a $45 billion ag income. per year. and a lot of it comes from what we export. while it might seem like its almonds and pistachios that are exported..and we are proud here in ca that we are the salad bowl of america and have acres and acres of strawberry fields..the reality is that it all comes at a cost. we were exporting our water. during our hardest cyclical droughts. its not like it wasnt expected. california is a desert afterall. and everything we grow is because we steal water from the rio grande. but the colorado river wont be able to sustain this sham game and ponzi scheme for long. and yes, the taxbase PAY to for the privilege of being scalped by ca politicians at sacramento.

its shameful and the politicians have blatantly lied and bankrolled their own campaigns by destroying california and our commons.

but wait! there is more! between fracking and our disappearing aquifers, its not just subsidence that will be the nail on ca's natural resources coffins..but there is also the danger of salt water intrusion on the other side in the ca coast. monterrey and salinas valley will soon..and this will be less than a century..maybe 50-60 years..have salt water intrusion making it impossible to cultivate the lettuce or strawberries or the celeries and brassicas.

today...around san juan bautista and surrounding areas, there is no water. the bores keep drilling deeper and deeper looking for water. and noone wants to talk about it. they just keep going at it as though resources dont have to be renewed and they do not want to account for the irreversible loss of top soil and all the blow back of fossil fueled ag. never mind, the human cost of it where poorly paid undocumented labour shoulders the whole unsubsidised burden which is eventually borne by the tax payers.

i hope the tax payers will one day realise that their high taxes are not going to feed californians or be the net for the underpaid immigrant labour or actually produce food. it is going to export cheap almonds and other goods of conspicous consumption to the rest of the world while we burn through non renewable resources and heading towards the unsolvable problem zone.

today, dairy farms in ca are bankrupt or have almost disappeared. the alfafa we grow is more profitable when its sent to china (who have themselves depleted their aquifers or poisoned them with industrial toxins) because they cannot grow fodder for the dairy their new middle class wants...and all those empty shipping containers can carry ca alfafa. but it costs more to transport fodder and forage to dairy farms in ca itself. supply chain logistics are a whole another level of mind fuckery.
Nope, love it, sorry. But ... I'm doing research and a full-time student. Essentially I'm like a grad student + 50% Dad. If I were working one of my old dev jobs, I'd probably hate the lack of work/life separation. Also synchronous schooling for the kids is much easier on me than the old asynchronous schooling. They just disappear into their room and pop out for recess and lunch, instead of me having to cut/paste/spend hours with them on BS make work.

EDIT> Kids are 7 and 12. If they were pre-schoolers ... shudder ... it's hell.
Even ignoring diagrams, etc, there's a reason that like word processing applications are killer apps for personal computing. WYSIWYG is a pretty convincing abstraction!

And yeah, you have the invisible format issue but at least you can make tables and resize them with your mouse.

Markdown's value add comes from having really good implementations to transform it into rich text, and being "unambiguous" (it's not really in a lot of cases but there aren't many great alternatives with widespread implementation).

But like... Word is pretty magical overall.
There are manual input codes on many cars for disabling those systems. Honda was worried a few years back for a big leak exposing the codes by vin where you do a sequence of brake pedal presses and turn signal switches and such to disable it so you can just pick the lock or use a cut key.
The silver lining that I pretend to see is maybe now that consumer data "e-commerce" is so common, we'll get some sort of government interaction. Taxes, new laws, something worse, who knows. But _hopefully_ now that it's so prevalent, the general public will become more aware and take it into account when voting.
I'm deeply saddened to see so many people on Hacker News trying so hard to downplay this.

I agree.

I've had years of Linux experience and decided my home network + router was quite poor and I'd set up my own home network router and use OpenBSD to do it as an excuse to look at a BSD and fix my network issues.

OpenBSD has been an absolute pleasure to work with. The man pages are well written and complete, the filesystem is well organized, having no issues that people have with Systemd the simplicity of OpenBSD's init system showed you don't need complex init systems. Then you have PF which is far easier to deal with than IP tables.

It took me a few hours of playing to set OpenBSD up with multiple vlan's, dhcp server, firewall, cross vlan routing, mdns etc. The hardest part was figuring out the correct parameters for my ISP broadband connection as the ISP didn't publish some of the information so needed to sniff the network traffic to find that i needed to set a vlan for my isp.

The simplicity of OpenBSD makes it very easy to learn networking and if you are familiar with Linux you will become familiar with BSD very quickly as BSD's are less fragmented than Linux by their nature.

DRAM at one point in time accounted for over 90% of Intel’s sales revenue. The article states that DRAM was essentially the “technology driver” on which Intel’s learning curve depended. Over time the DRAM business matured as Japanese companies were able to involve equipment suppliers in the continuous improvement of the manufacturing process in each successive DRAM generation. Consequentially, top Japanese producers were able to reach production yields that were up to 40% higher than top U.S. companies. DRAMs essentially became a commodity product.

Intel tried to maintain a competitive advantage and introduced several innovative technology design efforts with its next generation DRAM offerings. These products did not provide enough competitive advantage, thus the company lost its strategic position in the DRAM market over time. Intel declined from an 82.9% market share in 1974 to a paltry 1.3% share in 1984.

Intel’s serendipitous and fortuitous entry into microprocessors happened when Busicom, a Japanese calculator company, contacted Intel for the development of a new chipset. Intel developed the microprocessor but the design was owned by Busicom. Legendary Intel employee Ted Hoff had the foresight to lobby top management to buy back the design for uses in non calculator devices. The microprocessor became an important source of sales revenue for Intel, eventually displacing DRAMs as the number one business.

If you expand the definition of terrorism to such an absurd degree (anybody who may need grief counseling) you're diluting actual terrorism.

The Pulse nightclub is what real terrorism looks like. And the Christchurch shootings. And 9/11.

The storming of the capitol was not at all similar.
I'm not at all convinced. I was in peak physical condition while training for mountain races this year, and I still experienced the same stress and anxiety everyone else did.
If BLM isn't the face of the justice reform movement, then why is the capitol riot the face of the "the election was stolen" movement?
They're not legal in the US, in the way they're sold usually, they claim to be Part 90, and they're not
Great article. I thought TV detector vans were fictional bogey machines invented to scare us into compliance.
> China also seems to be entering the software business in a bigger way.

All of our jobs and companies are at risk. China has far more software engineers than we do, all willing to work 996. They'll steal our tech and our data until they're ahead, then shut us off.

We already lost our manufacturing industry. Our tech, entertainment, knowledge, and capital are next. China has bought our biggest gaming and media companies.

We need to shut the CCP off. Yesterday.

Biden needs to create easy immigration programs for Hong Kong and mainland residents.

The recent Capitol shit show needs to be quickly dealt with and we need to take back our leadership role. Our image matters.

Hollywood needs to step in line and stop kowtowing. Where's the
"Chernobyl" series equivalent for Tiananmen? The Tibetans and Uyghurs?

This is the most important issue of our time.

I know the Chinese loyalists and many Europeans that hate the US are going to downvote me, but this should be the priority of all democracies. If the CCP reaches the top, it imperils democracy.
This is the worst behavior to me. Those are precious buttons I want to bind to other uses. Too many times they've navigated me away from what I was looking at when I happened to press them with the browser focjsdd
We've built custom infrastructure just for Serverless Framework and CDK. So it's a lot faster (thanks to the incremental deploys), reliable (we handle failures and retries by connecting directly to your CloudFormation events), and there's a dashboard to set up your environments and deployment order for your services.
Also in Victoria.

It bothered me how compliant everyone was with the draconian lockdown. While I was happy to go along with the initial response, when the government started the 2nd wave through incompetence I outright refused to follow any of their directions.

There was no enforcement on the 5km rule or the "ring of steel" btw. Consequently I'm one of the few people in my company not burnt out.

So far the only state that seems to know how to competently handle covid without stripping freedoms is NSW. They take the bulk of international flights and manage outbreaks very well.

All every other state in Australia seems to know how to do is knee jerk to closing borders and stripping freedom of movement at the first sign of a new case.

Fwiw I was feeling very much this way until recently, and blamed it on WFH. I love working in an office and missed my commute, having clear boundaries to the day, having good touchpoints with colleagues. I just felt completely unproductive, highly distractible, and procrastinated everything.

Then I took two weeks off over Christmas/New Years and drove across the country to a new location where I'm working for a couple months, and it's been markedly better since then. I don't know how much was the change of scenery and how much was the vacation, but it made me realize at least part of the problem was general burn-out rather than WFH specifically.

If you're like me and many people I know, you probably haven't taken much vacation because there's not many places to go. I'd encourage you to use some of those days and go into nature, drive somewhere far, whatever you can that feels Covid-safe and mixes things up!
> The gateway could potentially also lie about the content it is serving you. In the future, Brave plans to verify content retrieved through gateways by using its CID.

Does anyone know why this was omitted? Verifying a hash is straightforward. Both the old simple MerkleDAG format [0] and the new complicated IPLD format [1] allow fetching and verifying individual files inside a CID-addressed bundle.

> Both requests you make and content you serve are observable by network peers.

That is a deceptive way to say, "if you click the 'Enable IPFS' button then your computer will continually publish your browsing history to the world." And they make it too easy to enable. It's just a button below the address bar [0]. And the button has a deceptive name, "Enable IPFS". The browser can use IPFS through a gateway, so IPFS is already enabled.

There are many important projects to improve privacy and reduce tracking and monitoring of user behavior on the network: DNS over HTTPS, TLS Encrypted SNI, blocking third-party cookies, proxy services (incorrectly called VPNs), anti-fingerprinting work in browsers, and mobile privacy features. Is there any work on making IPFS resistant to tracking? Right now, IPFS seems like a step backward for privacy.

> By default, Brave will load the URI being requested via a public HTTP gateway

> If IPFS is not yet configured, the user will have the IPFS page loaded through the gateway https://dweb.link. [2]

Fortunately, Brave shows the gateway URL in the browser address bar. This lets users know which company is tracking them. For Brave users (dweb.link users), this is Protocol Labs https://protocol.ai , a VC-funded company in California.

Bummer. This means normal webpages can't load images or videos from IPFS. :(
> What would you call the Capital Hill Autonomous Zone if not an attempt at insurrection?

CHAZ: An occupation. They weren't killing anyone. They weren't trying to kill people. They literally setup a community garden.

Capitol Hill attack: An insurrection. It was clearly a violent rebellion against the government of the US, with people actively working to kill the VPOTUS and members of the government.

I can easily see the differences. So can many others.

> What childish madness.

It's childish madness to treat the two as the same.
The whole concept of a ban is to follow a person not an account though... This has been true for every single forum I've ever frequented (including HN). The fact that this isn't always true is due to an (necessarily for both ethical and technological reasons) imperfect implementation.

> As someone who is sympathetic to both cultures, this has been painful to watch. Now that it's time for the powers that be to punish the red tribe, the blue tribe is all too happy to join in the authoritarianism - eg feigning outrage at the gallows (ignoring the guillotine symbolism of the past year), assertions that speech must be policed, and calls to take right-wing terrorism "seriously"

You're equivocating around the elephant (no pun intended) in the room. Members of authority on the red team have been actively working to overturn the election since they were voted out and those attempts finally culminated in a deadly attack on the capitol. These big tech companies are policing speech, but they are doing so on their own platforms based on a philosophical opposition to the message of sedition that 50% of the red team is pushing. These companies are saying "enough is enough, if you spread election fraud misinformation you are not welcome here", that's perfectly reasonable, and forcing these companies to rebroadcast this message is the only example of authoritarianism present in this debate.

> (meaning attack red tribe protests with the same zeal as blue tribe protests)

This is false. Any leader on the blue team will say they would prefer all citizens be treated well rather than all citizens be abused. I'd be interested if you had any examples demonstrating otherwise.

> the tech angle is how such nonsensical propaganda took over the red tribe so strongly

There's a little bit of tech to it, but this was happening on cable news and talk radio long before it was happening on the internet, the only difference is that twitter is massively popular whereas Fox News is not. If Fox News had 180 million prime time viewers we'd all just say "well, they could just watch MSNBC is if they wanted!"
Saying something wasn't terrorism doesn't mean it wasn't unlawful or stupid or terrible. It just means it wasn't terrorism.
