The restriction is not on the machine, it's on the cloud based software that you have to use to send a design to the machine. (and there's no limit on printing designs that you create within their software, only on images that you upload and convert).

So technically, this isn't a limit on the hardware, but on the software, even if realistically it's the same thing if you print a lot of uploaded designs since you can't use the machine without using their cloud software.

So legally they are probably in the clear to put limits on the "free" software, even if morally it's the equivalent of a hardware restriction.

That text doesn’t actually dismantle anything (and ignores mountains of other evidence) and doesn’t defend its own alternative either. Put simply, if redistribution worked, we’d see poverty rates decrease rather than stagnate or increase.

In contrast, single parent households drastically reduce the chances of success in life along a ton of metrics. Those kids get worse grades, drop out early, suffer learning and mental disorders at a much higher rate, are much more subject to domestic violence, etc. A shocking statistic is that around 85% of people in prison had no significant father figure in their life. This isn’t a one-off statistic either as incarceration rates do seem to track with single mothers over time. It even affects the mothers themselves who report higher rates of mental health issues (this tracks over time and across racial and ethnic groups).

Note: This probably would occur with single fathers too, but fathers are unlikely to be granted custody unless the mother has extreme issues going on and the father has a pristine record in comparison. Likewise, with 90+% of elementary teachers now being women (this wasn’t always true), finding a male role model is more difficult during the early, formative years.
The solution you are proposing is worse than the problem.

If Apple were forced to allow multiple stores or sideloading, governments that right now have no leverage with Apple would force their citizens to install government stores and apps.
>there is no hacking of iOS or an incredible technical prowess on the the side of China that we should all be afraid of, etc.

Claiming China (or the US, UK, Israel, Saudi Arabia, etc.) does not have incredible technical prowess and hacking abilities is silly. Though if you're simply claiming this specific example is not evidence of that prowess, I'd agree. I also agree that US companies are doing very similar types of cyber stalking, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't talk about it when we find other countries such as China doing it

I've gradually grown it into a hybrid frsmework which can be either static HTML, dynamically updated, or a middle ground (via access.log)

So someone offers a job at a poor rate, and it's "exploitation".

Then what are you and me, who didn't even offer a rate? If they would've literally starved without the offer, it literally saved their life.

If privacy is a core focus of your pitch, there should be a document with specifics about your promises around privacy, etc. There's nothing stating who you are and why I should trust you with my data.

3 machines Syncthing setup between desktop, laptop and a cloud instance in case laptop wasn't on to sync and the desktop is off for some reason.
It takes about 15s from connecting the laptop to the internet to having the files synced to it. Just need to remember to save files in emacs.

Setting up Syncthing in the cloud was a challenge, had to tunnel the web-ui with ssh port forwarding.

Yeah, we may move this to a $100k in expenses instead in the future. If your costs are in "COGS" then it won't count. For now, we do not allow for this because we don't want to incentivize founders to stuff as much stuff in COGS just to pay us $50/mo less. I have seen people do silly things like this before.
If there's two groups of people, one who listens to pop music for 10 hours a month and one who listens who indie artists for 20 hours a month (which could easily be the case if their recommended playlists are mostly indie artists as mine is), then switching to the model you propose would reduce how much money indie artists make, right?

It seems more fair to me that artists would get a set amount of money per stream, rather than the amount they get being dependent on how many other songs their listeners listened to.

That is not DDG's point at all. Their point is right in the linked tweet - "Spying on users has nothing to do with building a great web browser or search engine."
It is a pretty powerful combo: controlling supply and demand.
The problem is that it takes so long because they make a bunch of requests to the opt out endpoints of different services, which takes time. Of course, it is questionable why those requests are essential, but the point is that there is a reason to this madness.

Mr. Hough (pronounced Huff) was in a hospital having knee surgery when Amazon called and said he had used up his medical leave.

This. WTF. I hear this sort of thing and it's always a surprise, no matter how many times I hear it. Like that bullshit about being allocated a certain number of sick days. Like they're basically holiday days, but you can only use them when you're sick. I guess this then means that if you're sick, you're more likely to lose your job and as a bonus in the fucked up nightmare I'm describing, lose your employer-provided access to healthcare. It's like someone set out to deliberately create a system where minor misfortunes amplify to life-ruining catastrophe; instead of a system that catches people, a system that does just the opposite.

> What is gained, SERIOUSLY, by these stupid pop-ups?

I appreciate the ability to allow "required" cookies, but reject all other cookies.

I agree that I would absolutely prefer an HTTP header for cookie preferences instead of pop-ups. But the new cookie popups add some value to me, in letting me allow session authentication cookies, and reject all others.

An outright block on all local cookies tends to break authentication for many sites.

Which is very sane - what should git do if you modify the branch in one tree but not in the other? The least painful solution would require something like multiple-refs-per-remote-branch, which would be (to my understanding) a re-architecture.
> For a site devoted to people who love technology this is short sighted thinking

It's not short sighted thinking: Most people who use this site can do basic arithmetic.

The solar radiance under AM1.5 (which approximates the surface of the earth at the latitude of Europe, the US, or China) is around 1000 kW/m^2. The very best multi-bandgap solar cells in the lab today are about 47% efficient at converting sunlight to electricity. The very best DC-DC converters have about 95% efficiency in practice.

That means upper bound on energy production is about 445 W/m^2. On a sunny day. At noon. In June. For a panel directly facing the sun. With no shade.

That means you need slightly more than 3 m^2 of sun-facing panels at noon to achieve just the charging rate of a basic 120V North American household plug (1.44 kW from a NEMA 5-15, to be precise).

That means you need well over 3 m^2 of body-conforming panel to achieve that rate at noon. And that's the best case given infinite money. And production at other times of the day will be lower (even if you assume the car is parked in the middle of a flat desert).

Since the sun moves throughout the day, leaving such a car in the sun all day will only charge it about as much as charging from household plug for about 3-5 hours. Showing that is left as an exercise to the reader.
I'm not sure you understood my point.

For costs to go down on nuclear, you need to stop building giant one-off projects which are bespoke down to the rivets. It's like expecting a hand-made suit to ever be price-competitive with something you buy off the rack at Brooks Brothers.

Disclosure - I don't know Sahil and have never had any interaction with him or Gumroad except as an ocassional Gumroad customer.

I find this take to be disingenuous at best and outright misinformed at worst. Sahil has been very public with what happened [1]. Gumroad turned out to be a lifestyle business and not a VC funded boom or bust rocket.

He could have easily shut down Gumroad and gone on to bigger and better things. He persevered and today Gumroad has risen from the ashes and creators are better off for it. Kudos to him and his motley crew. He has extensively blogged about it and been public about Gumroad's finances. Maybe one day Gumroad will be worth $1B but it is a long road ahead and I wish the new investors the best.

Back to Sahil's actions, unless you have actual instances of wrongdoing by him, I feel you are just flinging innuendo.

> And because no one really cares about climate change enough to make it a priority.

Or maybe they care enough about climate change to not make another long-term mistake out as the solution, only to then have to repeat a very similar situation a few decades from now.

Increase the use of fission reactors and you will also increase the frequency of catastrophic events, it will increase the production of waste we still have no real way to reliably deal with, very comparable to the emissions we pumped in the atmosphere because "whatever could go wrong with that". We've been handling nuclear in a similar irresponsible short-sighted way for way too long [0].

So while fission might be a tempting solution to the climate change problem, it also has very real potential to become the very next problem we burden future generations with.

Is exchanging one long-term debt for another really that useful of a solution, or shouldn't we rather look for actually innovative and sustainable solutions?

There used to be (possibly apocryphal but seemingly true) stories about people who manage to get the OEM cost of Windows refunded on a new computer purchase by telling Microsoft they did not agree with the terms. They were going to install Linux on it anyway so didn’t need it.

I’m not sure if it was official policy (out of fear that clickwrap isn’t enforceable if you can’t opt out) or if it was just worth it to pay off people who went to that much effort, but either way good for them.
If you're doing fine without an ORM, don't bring one in. ORMs bring some user-friendliness and other niceties, but might drive you crazy by their strictness (objects lifetimes are bound to a session, it is harder to fetch/update parts of an object/relation, async is much more difficult because of lifetimes again, still need to take a look at generated queries to spot performance issues, ...). I am myself in the process of moving from the ORM to the core, because while I need the multi-backend support (including migrations), the ORM is proving too tricky for an app that's growing beyond simple CRUD.

By a corollary, some users DO care about tracking and click "no" to these popups.

I own both the x230 and the x395 (which is, externally, almost the same as the x13) and I can definitely feel a difference when typing on the much more comfortable x230.

It's mainly due to two factors: 1) thanks to having a very small touchpad, the keyboard is closer to the edge and I feel much less strain on the lower part of the arm, near my wrists, which becomes more apparent after long coding sessions; and 2) the key travel is much longer and typing feels "better" (I make far less mistakes).

Also, because the x395 is almost half the thickness, they could not fit a bigger battery (which is definitely my main complaint on these newer machines).

Don't get me wrong, the "X" series is great and I will probably get the latest version when I need a replacement *but* I'm sad they make these sacrifices in the name of "design".
I feel terribly misled—for several years now, I thought they removed "don't be evil" entirely (apparently, courtesy of overhyped news headlines and whatnot). Obviously it doesn't matter much in the grand scheme of things (I don't suddenly trust Google a whole lot more), but it feels bad to have both believed and passed on misinformation.

(And, yeah, it's also my fault for not having checked primary sources at the time.)

I have a laptop with that basically that exact same keyboard. It's not too bad. In practice, I find the flush surface hidden mouse buttons to be more problematic. I would never want a numeric keypad on a laptop, but apparently it's a selling feature and it's near impossible to find a larger-screen laptop without one.

I find whether minor things like the off-center trackpad bug me tends to reflect more about my current state of mind than anything else.
I've been guilty of using this term somewhat frequently and have always wondered if it would actually get someone in trouble…now I know.

When you have one organized power structure that is using its power to exploit people, the only real way to combat it is with another organized power structure.

Marketing Channels That Work in 2021

> the real problem is that $8–10 a month for ad-free streams

Which sounds a bit weird to me. How many people used to spend more than $10 every month on LP or CD records. Probably many enthusiasts, but the average customer? Not a chance.

Yet artists say they get paid a lot less. The money must go somewhere.
I don't have either of those.

From previous experiences, it's my understanding that activation means resetting and erasing it.
This isn't speculation, there's literally an article on 9to5mac today about how the new iOS update will be pre-selecting apps provided by the Russian government on device setup to comply with a new law there. For now you can deselect/remove them.
That's really not an issue right now. Governments ARE forcing Apple to preinstall government apps right now.

I agree "harmless" is absolutely the wrong word.

I also think that data that might be harmful to a user because it could record them breaking a law should be thought of differently than data that could be harmful when used maliciously by a third party. Even allowing for the often oppressive and unfair application of the law, data that is harmful to the user when sent to the authorities should be considered differently than other data because there is obviously a balancing question around relative harms to different parties. If you witness a crime, reporting it might be good, but it isn't always.

[0] https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/i-dont-care-abou...
If I understand correctly, Apple would only get 30% of the in-app subscriptions but not those from outside the app?

If so, I think there are likely multiple motivations here. Apple has long been willing to force certain standardizations in the name of simple and uniform user experiences (they’re not perfect but the intent is clearly there). Having to drop out of an app experience to do something isn’t good UX - so enforcing the option to do it in app makes for a simpler experience - as much as it also adds to Apple’s bottom line. To be honest, the issue seems more to be just how big of a cut they want to take - but that’s even harder to fight against (capitalism and all) so this is the easier target.
As a counter-anecdote:

I'm typing this on a 7 or 8 year old s76 Gazelle. It was my primary work and personal machine for 3 or 4 years and has been my primary personal machine since. I did replace the original drive with an SSD, and I think I may need to replace the fans---they're getting loud. Hardware- and build-quality-wise, I've never had any problems. (Well, ok, I killed one of the USB ports. Probably broke some of the connections.)

The one problem I have had is with the NVidia graphics, which have never worked properly. (I've got graphics acceleration disabled now.) Either it wouldn't go to sleep, or the graphics wouldn't wake up. The last straw was when I got those problems beaten into a standstill, and Chrome started somehow overriding my window manager and keeping the (accelerated) Chrome window front and center, minus WM decorations.

Sure, it's a generic Clio or something, but I've been very impressed. Never had much love for HP, though.
> We have those thanks to the increase of productivity and competition between employees, not some unions hundreds of years ago. Maybe that was the reason initially but time has passed and today's situation favours the employee in most fields.

Possibly this is true for the kind of jobs that many HN readers tend to have. But many, many people have to slog it out in low-skilled or semi-skilled jobs with minimal ability to bargain, and with almost all power on the side of the employer.
