> The crowd here may intuitively dislike NFTs, but it's arguments are trivially applicable to may other kinds of traditional art.

Your example isn't the same thing - you're buying the photograph and the certificate of authenticity. An authentic photograph. With NFTs, you're only buying the certificate of authenticity. Literally nothing else. I don't believe there's anywhere on earth a certificate of authenticity in isolation is worth more than the paper its printed on.

Nobody's paying anything for a certificate of authenticity that says the Mona Lisa was painted by Leonardo da Vinci - alongside a museum map with a big red circle around where you can find it - when the art itself remains firmly in the Louvre.

The NFT doesn't prove provenance of the art, only of itself. It has no connection to the art other than the connection you ascribe to it. Remember, blockchains only meaningfully encapsulate concepts wholly represented on the blockchain. Art is not such a concept. NFTs are. But they're not connected to the art in any way.
Not at any cost, but this cost is plainly acceptable.
A retreat to barbarity seems to be the most popular life choice today, as in behaving like an animal is the only thing that's authentic. The problem is the malice is still there driving it all. People who truly despise being restrained by laws stampede the heard off the cliff. On the way to the burning down of your own city other people built for you, here, get a credit card and phone plan.

You can write all the news articles you want. You can sign all the legislation you want. The law is here to limit violence, not do what everyone agrees on, not to make everyone feel good. If the police don't do it, other people will. Business owners. Realtors. Other criminals. Foreign debt holders. Or even worse, nature, as in starvation, disease, exposure, trauma from accidents.

It's not okay to be a victim. If you are robbed or attacked, it's not okay. Best way to end crime. Got your window broken, or your city burnt, or your border is opened? I'm not going to punish them anymore. I'm going to punish you.

Watch crime drop real fast after that one.
I disagree. The idea that organized religions exist primarily as a means of societal control is well-supported by even the most basic (let alone thorough) of examinations of world history and contemporary society.

There is no thing called "science" that finds answers. There are scientists who can form hypotheses about the universe they can see and perceive and check whether they are consistent with what they can see and perceive.

I guess the requirements are:

b) a competent editor who can keep them moving forwards

Perhaps some very unusual people are able to handle a+b on their own, but I think most people need that other person/editor.
> but the landlord doesn't care to provide access to Verizon

Very generous words. I lived in a building once where the landlord flat out told me that we can only have Comcast because they paid him. Obviously, YMMV. In my experience it was more malicious than simply not caring.
Runway definitely works without CI integrated! But, lack of build data does limit some of the cool stuff Runway can otherwise do - e.g. automatically tagging releases, and soon easier/auto build selection in ASC/Play. The CI piece definitely makes a difference, so we're exploring the possibility of offering simple out-of-the-box to teams without!

This article is absolutely terrible

Flagging is the least bad system I’ve seen so far. HN can be configured to show flagged or dead posts as well so it doesn’t really compare.
That feels like an artificial problem though. On the internet, nobody knows you're a dog.

It's relatively easy to pass as any gender, age, race or whatever you want to. Yes, it will be more difficult if you call your account Transwomxn or request that people use xe/xir to refer to you, but if you're SarahKnitting, everybody will just assume you're Sarah and into knitting and will use she. At that point, it might be the right call by the community to not accomodate those that want to focus their membership on their political identity so they can provide a friendly community about knitting for the SarahKnittings of the internet.
I see it differently.

* "Taking care of your car is hard".

* "No its not. 90% of the time, its just changing your oil, refilling the fuel tank, washer fluid, and rotating tires".

* "But you have to also replace the transmission fluid and sometimes rebuild the engine"

* "True, but those are not a very common tasks".

-----------

That's how I see it. Most parallelism is "easy parallelism" in my experience. The goal isn't necessarily to train programmers into being able to do "engine rebuilds", but instead train them for the easy "oil change / rotate tires" part of taking care of cars (or programs).

For programming: that's fork / wait(), or pthread_create() / pthread_join(), or #pragma omp parallel for. Those constructs covers the vast, vast majority of parallel constructs I've run across.

Yes, mutex is hard. Condition variables are hard. Lock-free programming is hard. High performance (false-sharing / MESI) is hard. GPU ballots / __shared__ memory / butterfly permutes are very hard. Prefix-sum / scan and Mergepath algorithms are hard. Lock-free Producer-consumer is really, really, really hard (Probably PH.D level hard)

But... I really don't come across a lot of situations where I need to Mergepath, GPU-ballot, or need to manually program / debug a Lock-free algorithm. That's just the facts. I'm glad I learned these constructs (and I await the day when a high-performance programming problem is given to me such that I need to "pull out the big guns" that I've spent a lot of effort learning)... but I recognize that its not really needed in typical day-to-day programming parallel jobs.

Even in GPU-programming: the bulk of GPU-programming is just simple fork/join stuff. A GPU-kernel is a fork, and when the GPU-kernel finishes execution, its an innate join() (with synchronization guaranteed). Its really not that hard in most situations.

Schedule your chain of GPU-kernels to execute in order (a "CUDA-stream"), and they automatically join and synchronize with themselves each time the kernel completes. Its that easy in most cases.

"Oh, but for maximum performance you want to use dynamic / recursive parallelism, or block-off your data into __shared__ memory and think about L1 caches". Erm, yes, if you care to put that much work into performance its hard. But you're no longer talking about parallelism per se, but instead the very difficult field of high-performance compute at that point.

Flask is simple. Deployment of python apps is not. You need to configure and run a WSGI server in front of it. Then, package it into a container, push it to a registry, find a host, etc ..

My suggestion wasn't to run Node in the backend, it was no backend. Serve it as a static site. That generally works in 90% of the cases for me. I use Hasura as my API layer which is deployed alongside Postgres.
It just dawned on me that this is the case for the expanded form of that initialism, too.
Truly, when Fanon said "by any means", his ultimate move would have been tearing some messages down from a semi-public bulletin board.
Linux removes platform support from time to time, like any project. IA64 was a recent, notable example.

That being said, it is true that Rust doesn't yet support all the platforms that are important to the kernel. That's one of the reasons this is starting with drivers, and is one of the reasons why some folks are pursuing a Rust frontend for gcc.
Did not even know VPC peering was a thing. In the past I've often used Amazon RDS with Heroku Web servers for hosting Rails apps. For my current project I initially started out with Aurora Serverless which is VPC only, so I thought my web servers also had to be in the same VPC, so I decided to use Elastic Beanstalk instead of Heroku.

I do wish Amazon had an offering like Heroku. While Elastic Beanstalk works pretty good it's nowhere near as nice or easy to use as Heroku. It has gotten a bit better with Amazon Linux 2 [Procfile, platform hooks], but still leaves a lot to be desired. I wish I could scale up/down faster like you can with Heroku. There is probably a way to improve it, but right now the way it's set up any deploy, config change, etc bundles the gems and precompiles the assets which take a while. So deploy/scale up take around 8-10 minutes. It's been a while since I've used Heroku but from what I remember it's pretty much instant to add more dynos.

I also ran into a couple of other annoying issues with EB.

1. There is a bug if using Amazon Linux 2 Ruby 2.7 deploying a RoR app where assets are not precompiled on configuration changes. It was an easy fix, just needed to add a script to .platform/confighooks/predeploy but it should have just worked.

2. When migrating to Amazon Linux 2 I deployed a version of the app that needed some code changes to work on Amazon Linux 2. There is no way to disable rollback on failed deploy on EB. Setting the "Ignore Health Check" option to true does not help here. I ended up in a situation where I needed to both push a code update and update some environment variables. However any code update I would push would fail because of the missing environment variables and rollback and any configuration change to update the environment variables would rollback because the current code had an error. I ended up having to tear down the environment and recreate it to get out of this loop.

3. Another minor issue is the Monitoring/Health dashboard. It will show warning/degraded/severe during scaling operations. For example when you trigger a scale down event it will complain:

"Environment health has transitioned from Ok to Warning. ELB processes are not healthy on 1 out of 6 instances. ELB health is failing or not available for 1 out of 6 instances."

Like of course it's not responding, the autoscaling group just terminated it.

I feel like Elastic Beanstalk really could be a Heroku competitor if AWS cared enough to put the work into it. It just needs some polish and quality of life improvements, but I guess this way they still make their money and Heroku has a good business middle-man'ing it.

I'm wondering if perhaps I would be better off using ECS or EKS, or if that's what AWS wants me to use hence why they are not putting much effort in EB.
There are great films in the Criterion Collection but there are also quite a lot of average films. I live in France and we have access (not at the moment because of covid) to unlimited movie pass (the best is UGC illimité if you live in Paris) for as little as 22€/month. I usually try to go and watch a lot of films but when I'm busy and have to select films, checking rottentomatoes and going to see films that have >90% score is a fast way to filter out the bad films. Recently, I have started buying great films so that I can share them with my parents who don't live in a big city. Most films I have bought are from the Criterion Collection but it's quite expensive to. get (need to order from Amazon.com as criterion.com won't ship to Europe) and it's a real pain to deal with region restrictions (most films are region A but some such as Tampopo are region B so you need either two blu-ray players or a region-free one such as the Freebox Revolution with the Konami code) Also, some choices made by Criterion are really questionable: some films (for example Like Someone in Love) have subtitles hardcoded. (maybe it's the case for all non English films. I haven't checked with films in Spanish but there are hardcoded subtitles in films in Japanese, Chinese and Korean) I get it that it's probably cheaper to get the rights of a film with hardcoded subtitles but I think people who are willing to pay $45 for a film wouldn't mind paying $5 more and have the ability to remove subtitles.

You write like these are guaranteed outcomes, but organizations lose their ability to deliver value as they grow all the time, which is where startups come in...

Granted YC is probably more aware of these downfalls than most companies, and are trying to mitigate them, but to act like YC can only get better as it expands is really short sighted.

I'm sure every person on this board can think of dozens of companies that failed because they got too big and could no longer deliver value as well as smaller companies. The tech space is littered with them every year.

What you've described is, of course, what Google wants in the long run. For corporations making money on the web HTTPS is required and it makes a lot of sense.

The problem is the web isn't just corporate sites involving money or private information. But if a browswer, or individual, begins blocking HTTP sites what they're effectively doing is saying, "Only sites approved by corporations should be visitable." This is a result of only corporations (no matter how non-profit or currently benevolent they are) being certificate authorities. A human person can't be a certificate authority. And that is a terrible blow to freedom on the web.

What happens with offline LAN? And the ideal IoT devices that we would all want to have? (I mean those we dream about in all IoT HN posts, where the rants typically are that no internet connection should be needed for most of these kinds of devices)

What about offline tutorials? I'd like to provide a ZIP with a plain HTML tutorial that shows how WebRTC works, but users cannot serve it up in their LAN and access through their laptops or phones, because WebRTC requires HTTPS. What's even worse, a self-signed cert doesn't work either. iOS Safari does NOT work with self-signed certs at all!

It's maddening, obstacles everywhere once you don't walk the path "they" (industry leaders, focused on mainstream online web services) want you to follow.

EDIT: There are some (lots [0]) of features that require a secure context, i.e. a web page served through HTTPS. So the defaults to HTTP are not a silver bullet, and the security exceptions for localhost are not really that useful either, being limited to the same host.

The first version of Dartmouth basic ran on a system with a whopping 20kB of memory (8k words at 20 bits each. See https://en.)wikipedia.org/wiki/GE-200_series)

The GE-635 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GE-600_series) that it ran on most of its life could have 4 CPUs, had protected memory and floating point hardware, and supported at least 200 kilowords of memory (http://www.bitsavers.org/pdf/ge/GE-6xx/CPB-371A_GE-635_Syste...)

At 36 bits/word, that’s 900 kilobytes.

The first version of Microsoft basic (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Altair_BASIC) ran in 4 kilobytes (leaving about ¾ kilobytes for programs and data), so it’s understandable that it lacked some features (it didn’t even have else clauses in if statements, had SIN, but not COS or TAN, didn’t support integer or string variables, etc))
