It's really sad to see the witch hunting against RMS. A man who has committed no crime and has only shared a few honest and good faith opinions. Do we have to try to scrub people from existence when their opinions are not the same as yours?
Soon, you and your friends can host your own private search engine at modest cost and enjoy total privacy.
The down payment and cost of transaction, including inspections, taxes, and real estate agent fees, loan origination fees, other fees, cost of moving etc. In an average housing market it can take 5 years for those to pay off when compared to paying rent (do your own calculations, mileage varies dramatically).

Unless you have enough cash to pay for a house, you are either renting money or renting a place to live.
I got a lot of torture during quarantine. And... by choice, pretty frequently.

Using that definition muddies the definition a lot.

4 years is definitely cruel and unusual imo. 15 days is whatever.

I just think they should have soft things and light etc in their cell if we're going to continue using that. A comfortable place.
Why not link to Red Hat's page instead? It says just as much on this issue, and lacks the obnoxious "subscribe to our newsletter" box with a hard to find close button.

I understand the impulse, some crimes are so horrific it gets your blood up, but for me it's not about them, it's about us. I don't want to live in a vengeful, vindictive or cruel society and I don't want anyone doing those things on my behalf. I'm a pragmatist, some killings are essentially unavoidable, as in war. Violence needs to be an option, but I don't think it should be used unnecessarily or to satisfy base urges. Not in my name anyway. These people should serve the sentence they were given according to due process, and this does not seem to be consistent with the intended penalty.

On a personal note an acquaintance of mine served several years for a sentence for which he was later fully exonerated. It was a thoroughly awful travesty of justice. He also underwent appalling abuses as the alleged crime for which he was convicted was sexual in nature. No system is perfect and there will probably always be mistakes made, so lets at least make sure the consequences of such mistakes don't burden our consciences any more than they need to.
Thr point is that if Coke's customers tools Coke's advice, Coke would be a far less profitable business.

They are bluffing and they know that.
Walmart has cheap potatoes, carrots, onion, rice, pasta. My mom mad macaroni and cheese with regular elbow noodles and a couple slices of American cheese. We added ketchup.
Let's be real here.

Definitely a thing here in oz. Jayden and other names associated with working class "bogan" culture attract negative reactions.
The .33 cents box of Kraft or the 2.00 box of Kraft? The latter is much, much better
OOP using a meta-object protocol is very based indeed.

Unfortunately, only Common Lisp and Lua do it that way.

Actor models are pretty based as well, and have a better historical claim to the title "object oriented programming" than class ontologies do, but that ship has sailed.

This is hardly reducing the attack surface compared to a good distro with the usual userspace.

It's been decades since attackers relied on a shell, or unix tools in general, or on being to write to disk and so on: it's risky and ineffective.

Many attack tools run arbitrary code inside the same process that has been breached and extract data from its memory.

They don't try to snoop around or write to disk and so on. Rather, move to another host.

The only good mitigation is to split your own application in multiple processes based on the type of risk and sandbox each of them accordingly.
The FED and mainstream economists know that if interest rates will go up it will create huge deflationary forces (on top of existing ones) so they will do everything in their power to keep them low. I doubt we will see high interests for the next few years until debt ratios go a bit lower. The FED even mentioned that they’re willing to allow inflation to run higher for a while. That being said, it’s not a given that we will see inflation.
For reference, less than half the population of London - or about 80% of the population of Scotland - would give England the same population density as the US.
gitlab pages is better imo. You can use the CI to run any code you want to build the static files.
Romans initially used center dots in early Roman history, but transitioned to continuous script for several centuries following exposure to Greek writing that used continuous script, before eventually transitioning to separating words with empty space. Use of the center dot seems to have persisted on monuments after it ceased to be used in ordinary writing.

The lack of spacing also led to an interesting phenomenon where most (perhaps nearly all) Romans could not read silently, and had to process written text by reading it aloud to themselves. There are some recorded instances of figures from Greek and Roman antiquity reading silently, but it’s generally remarked on as being surprising to those around them, and attributed to individuals that are otherwise attested to have been exceptionally intelligent (Alexander the Great, Julius Caesar, Saint Ambrose).
Large swaths of web are garbage. Wasting people's time and attention on visiting pointless sites for something presentable in a small box is obviously not economical.

And if some of the sources somehow die? New sources will spring up. It doesn't matter.
It's not clear, but it looks like the last crawl was 280 TiB (100 TiB compressed) and contains a snapshot of the web at that point; i.e. you don't need prior snapshots unless you're interested in historical content.

EDIT: the state of the crawls are summarized at https://commoncrawl.github.io/cc-crawl-statistics/.

Nobody's saying we should scrub RMS from existence. Just don't secretly put him in charge of the FSF, without warning, and announce it during Libreplanet like it was his birthday party. Nobody from the FSF even knew this would happen except the board. It was a surprise to all of the FSF staff too.

Already one board member has resigned over this. It's completely wrong to be running the FSF like your own private fan club instead of what it's supposed to be: a foundation for all of us, to defend software freedom for all of us. It should not be RMS headquarters.

He wants to keep blogging about how harmless it is to have sex with teenage girls, he can keep doing that. He doesn't have to be in the board of the FSF to do it.
Wasn't the F-22 actually good at something, though?
I don't really disagree with your criticisms, but I don't see them as direct rebuttals. For what it's worth, I work in the defense industry.

Edit: I should also mention I was writing this with regards to the challenges a new entrant to the defense industry would face (i.e. a company that wants to start selling to the military with no prior experience doing so).

1. I agree the military knows what they want. The problem is the military does not know what is possible. And they do not know what could be possible. In the past contractors came up with products (e.g. the sidewinder missile) that no one in the military was asking for, simply because they could not conceive of it. The engineers could conceive of it however and were able to build it and then sell it to them. This does not happen today.

The military can only ask about things it can imagine. It can't ask for things it can't imagine, and those are the things that ultimately lead to breakthroughs in warfighting ability.

2. If you are not Raytheon or Lockheed or whoever you aren't going to get in the room with the people who make purchasing decisions. That's why I said you'd need to hire an executive from one of these companies. They have the relationships already and know who to talk to. I'm not saying it's literally impossible, just that it isn't going to happen in practice. If you wanted to sell something to say GM or Tesla you could get on LinkedIn or ask around for someone who could put you in touch with someone high-up there. And if your product was interesting they would probably meet with you. Who do you even contact if you want to sell to the military? There are people, but no one is going to tell you who they are if you're just some random person with a company.

3. With regard to clearances. Let's say I'm developing some new weapon system. We're now dealing with classified information. So now everyone working on that needs a clearance. It is absolutely a barrier to getting new ideas off the ground because you need to wait > 1 year for the clearances to finish processing before they can start doing real work. There are a lot of smart people who could bring new ideas into the industry, but they basically have a choice between making a bunch of money working at a high paying job or doing make-work while they wait for everything to process. No surprise that many talented people choose to go work elsewhere.
I visited a friend of mine out in Lancashire in the UK one time after I had just bought a home on the west coast. I mentioned that my home was quite old: It was a craftsman built in 1908. My friend quipped that his home was one of the newest on his street, at 250 years and counting.

On the one hand, I absolutely love the idea of creating lasting structures that stand the test of time and can serve many generations of people. That seems reasonable and cost-effective from a long-term perspective.

On the other hand, I also visited Japan and I learned that people generally tear down their houses and rebuild from scratch every 20-30 years. I don't know all the details about how this system came to be, but someone told me it was for a few reasons: One, lots of earthquakes meant making housing more cheap and replaceable reduced the impact of the shakes. Two, the financing structures are impacted by the Georgian land-value taxation system Japan implements, meaning almost everywhere the land on which the building sits is 10-1000x more valuable than any building could be. And three, the idea that future generations will have different needs and wants, and so having a house built hundreds of years ago that's perfectly fine structurally but ill-suited to modern living is an outcome to be avoided.

That also hearkens to something Joel Salatin said about how he thinks about building capex on his farm: He plans for any given structure to last 20-30 years. If it makes it that long, it's almost certain the farm's needs have changed enough that you'd want to tear it down anyways.

I don't think there's an obvious answer here, and maybe it's like most things: The best solution is a variety of solutions.
Right, and we're not going to get support in the mainline kernel without chipset manufacturer support. Namely in the form of open sourcing all the binary blobs, because those aren't going to be accepted into the mainline kernel.

Qualcomm just doesn't want to do this. I'm not sure if it's because they don't feel like spending the developer time (money) to do so, or if they believe 2-year obsolescence is better for their bottom line. Probably both.
I've been noticing this over last few years too. Replying a podcast and I recall where I was at certain bits.

> I don't understand why Americans buy these kind of (expensive) processed and branded food products. Why not just buy pasta, the cheese (grate it if you want) and some other seasoning, as the raw individual ingredients?

My SO has a delicious home-made mac and cheese. It was really hard to find the cheese at Safeway; there were nights I check multiple Safeways. It is just white American. (But not "American" cheese, which is yellow, and has a completely different taste.)

As another commenter mentions, you need the right cheese, as it needs to melt correctly. My understanding is that this is the presence of emulsifiers that cause the cheese to melt correctly, which white American has. My understanding is that, actually, cheese does not, and white American is technically called "cheese product" because it is has emulsifiers mixed it. (So it's not technically cheese anymore.)

(Which is weird, because my understanding for parm in other recipes is opposite: that the cheap parm often doesn't melt correctly b/c it is usually adulterated with cellulose (e.g., wood pulp / plant matter). So I might not have this completely correct. But then, wood pulp is likely also not an emulsifier.)

(We also sometimes cut it with ham, and that is also surprisingly out of stock often. (The small sized ones; I can't use a giant/full sized ham as it would rot.))

Wikipedia is drowning in money so this whole line of discussion is weird.

And most of the value of wikipedia is created by its unpaid users, not Wikimedia foundation.
Companies opt in to sites like Expedia and list their properties/flights/vacations on their marketplace and they pay a commission for those being booked. Expedia doesn't just crawl them and demand a royalty for sending them traffic...

Google has a huge pay 2 play problem with PPC... i've worked for Expedia so that's the only reason i know this :)

It's the reason companies work with Expedia many times because they don't have the leverage expedia group does...

i see it as unnatural change btw... "borg" if you will.
Inflation is caused by lots of people having excess money to spend. What we're doing now is we're increasing the money supply but instead of letting the money spread out we've built huge dams around it.

With all of the money in big dams, it's not being spent, so we're not seeing inflation increase with money supply.
surge.sh is quite nice, mainly because you just run the command from your “dist” directory, press enter a couple of times, and it’s uploaded.

If you want a more CI type service (i.e. you push your code and it builds on the cloud, rather than you build it locally - or it requires no build), I’ve found Netlify pretty good.

Was using Vercel for a Next.js project recently, quite nice experience but it randomly started timing out about 50% of builds and their support were unwilling to help without a minimal repro - fair enough, but I was on a deadline so switched to Netlify, which built the site with no issues.

Will try out Cloudflare Pages next based on the positive comments in here!
Dark is a very cool project. I had the opportunity to consult with them and Paul is an extremely bright engineer. I agree with the premise of the problems they want to solve and hope they can get there.

It’s interesting to me though that a project that includes its own programming language has changed languages twice. (Elm to OCaml on the front end, OCaml to F# on the backend) and does kind of call out the fact that anything built on the dark platform is locked into Dark the language.

Dark has shown that changing languages can provide benefits like the ones quoted in the blog, so maybe it would be worth exploring more language support. Reading past comments and feedback, it seems like embracing a whole new language was a high barrier to entry for most.
Strings were done well, because they are just BudirectionalCollection and not RandomAccessCollection on graphemes, which is usually what you would want (especially as an app developer writing user-facing code). The other views are collections in their own right. By conforming to Collection a string can do things like be sliced and prefixed and searched over “for free”, which are extremely common operations to define generically.
I ran into this on OpenWRT back in the day. It had a similar filesystem behavior where you could not delete from a full FS. The solution was to truncate a file that was at least 1 block big, thus freeing up a few kilobytes. Then you can rm a large file, and then you can resume normal cleanup.
I use both pages.dev and netlify.com: pages.dev, even in open beta, is a fantastic product if it suits all your needs, but the limitations [0], if you hit them, are a dead-end and there are no ETAs as to when some of those limitations would be addressed.

That is not the case with netlify.com which boasts a myriad of features, is equally as fast, production-ready, and competitively priced.

With pages.dev, I believe, you pay per every domain you host, whilst with netlify.com, there's no cap on number of domains per account, though they do charge for bandwidth (unlike pages.dev).

Workers Sites [1] is a viable alternative and I quite prefer it over pages.dev.

I mean the "Edmonton-Calgary corridor," which is certainly more spread out than the vancouver metro but is still a recognized connected urban region, at over 3 million people, is also not an insignificant chunk of Canada.

I'm pretty sure you can find well over 11.5 million peoples'-worth of regions to pile up into a counterexample for what the post was saying. I think the point is that "across canada" is a broad brush to use for this.
Hell, nowadays there are plastic "instant mac" bowls that are pre-measured to cook the noodles in the microwave.

1. Add noodles

2. Fill to line with water

3. Microwave for 2:30

4. Stir

5. Microwave for 2:00

6. Stir in cheese powder + liquid (butter, milk, or water, in my order of preference)

7. Serve

Only one bowl to clean.
I’ve bought a couple diffferent flavors of Annie’s Mac and cheese and me and my wife did not especially like it. We prefer Kraft, Velveeta, or Cracker Barrel boxed macaroni and cheese (the last one is great, you should try it). Even the store brand with the liquid cheese pouch is good.

Maybe it’s organic or something which makes people like it. Kind of the same with with Amy’s frozen meals. They are all so bland. I’ve never found one I liked more than the “regular” frozen brands, which says a lot as none of those are really very good.
Give us a shout over at Start.coop if you decide to go this direction. We have lots of resources and supports available to help you get off the ground.
Alternatively, you can use cron/systemd timers to update the domain minutely.
Heroku has offered branch previews for a while now

Even setting aside the details of the specific allegations against Stallman, why would anyone want to reinstate him? He has a almost perfect track record of alienating everyone who's ever interacted with him, with his combination of religious fervor for ridding the world of nonfree software and complete disregard for everything else.

Just this week I read a couple of anecdotes, from people who'd otherwise be inclined to defend Stallman, about him haranguing people about the immorality of using appliances with unmodifiable embedded firmware. Okay, fine, I get why this is concerning to him, but it ranks about 1000th on the list of issues I would want an organization like FSF to be focused on. And also, why talk like this to someone you just met?

But you know what? This line of argument misses the point. I look at Stallman and I see a man who is profoundly mentally ill and incapable of controlling himself. He shouldn't be condemned or defended, he should be institutionalized, for his sake and the sake of those around him.
Red Hat specifically seems quite compatible with the FSF.
Amazon is hosting the Common Crawl on S3 for free, so... yes, $2/month/TB is a lot more expensive.

Only when the pay doesn't compensate for the instability, which in Netflix's case, is a lot. You could work two months and have enough saved to last you an year.
I often find things like this to be workarounds for architectural flaws. For example, the 2rd part of the article looks like it would be better suited to a traditional ETL pipeline, with a staging table & upsert/merge in the database.
I eat Annie's on a regular basis. I just add meat of some kind for protein. It's the convenience factor. Same reason I love microwave burritos with greek yogurt on the side.

Time is a short, I just want something quick to make that's got a decent protein content.
During the pandemic, I have been listening to audiobooks while I’m programming. I don’t really listen to the content, it just makes me feel less lonely.

But what I’ve found is that I end up associating code I’m writing to the audiobook I’m listening to at the time. Later on, when I work on that bit of code again, I replay the audiobook I was listening to when I wrote it, and it helps me remember how that code works.
Browsers will light up like a christmas tree if your site doesn't have https.
Haven't tried Netlify or Cloudfare pages, but I use GH pages for my personal blog (running Jekyll) and I've never seen any reason to switch. You need to know how to use Git and Github, but since you're reading HN you probably know these things. It's really convenient to be able to just push to GH and have it auto-deploy - and it's free.

Granted, my blog is an insignifcant site with a tiny readership and I rarely update it, so if you need something more heavy duty than I have no idea if GH pages is up to the task.
VICE has been on a rampage of anti-US articles, day after day, video after video.

It is no longer the VICE we know of early 2010s when it did factual reporting.

Who Will Write Your Company’s Technical Content?
Can you recommend a quick, easy method for scanning all the pages?

I like paper notebooks, too. Someday, I'd like to have an app that would let me turn any ordinary stack of scratch paper or notebook into a searchable PDF in under 5 minutes. I would finish a notebook and just put my phone on a gooseneck stand and turn the pages one at a time (not riffle) at one page per second or two, and it would know when to take the photos, which it would flatten, orient, and bind into a PDF of the notebook. It would maintain my handwritten pages but add an OCR'ed backstore of the text that could be used to create something like a table of contents, an index, and a fulltext search.

I imagine some portion of that is already available, and the rest will be arriving anytime now.
Apple is only another player in "the market" if they start selling chips, or licensing their designs, for use in non-Apple products.
A bit of a tangent, but I always found it a shame that SR-IOV hasn’t caught on beyond its use in NICs. It’s a much more flexible way of sharing hardware peripheral resources than doing PCI passthrough as the article describes, yet very few GPUs or storage controllers support it, and from what I can tell, the ones that do all very niche and expensive solutions.
PlenOctrees For Real-time Rendering of Neural Radiance Fields (NeRFs)
I'd argue that standardization at the protocol level benefits almost everyone more than the current paradigms. Any app works with any taxi network.

I want to use Lyft as my client, great. I land in a city, and I can ping drivers working for any pool, co-op, or team.

WeChat just replaced the AppStore/OS. If each service is its own entity inside WeChat, youve just nested the problem one level down. The client browser should be completely divorced from the rest of the network. There should be an IMAP/HTTP level hailing protocol. You want gmail but I want outlook, great we can still talk to each other.
Gnome-terminal, probably the largest by user base, does not sadly.
