I expect to get a gmail type service paying only the "price" of having some unobtrusive ads when I'm on the gmail site, nothing else.

I absolutely do not agree to google using anything from gmail to generate a stable user id for advertising, or e.g. show me ads in google search results or youtube videos, based on analysis of email content.

If Google can't provide what I expect (a free mail service paid only by ads on gmail dot com) they should tell me that they want $X per year and I'd happily pay it. It's not that I don't want to fund the operations of services, it's that I'm always assumed to rather pay with my information than with dollars.
+1 -- yes if you must develop AWS lambda, then serverless is the BEST way.

BUT .. I should also say that while I started ~5 years ago with serverless framework, in the past year I've completely transitioned everything over to the Azure Durable Serverless Functions.

AZ has their own same-same-but-better "Core Functions Power Tools", it's got a lovely & zippy cli interface built in node that is separate/decoupled from the "az cli". Just like serverless you can run/dev/test locally, then quickly deploy to azure. The debugging integration with VS code, distributed tracing, even "AZ Remote Debugging" with "Azure Hybrid Connections" creates super fast inner/outer development loops.

If you like the "serverless model" then you also need to check-out AZ "Logic Apps". Logic custom connectors totally kick ass imho since they provide a ton of insight into how data is moving through the application, basically you deploy and you get instantaneous telemetry.

Deploying software that costs nothing (except negligible storage fees) unless you're using it AND would require an ELE (i.e. meteor strike) to break is very cool.

Apart from the slippery slope problem, which is absolutely a factor in the evolving lanscape of social justice, these changes usually require cognitive overhead and engineering effort to switch to.

Ultimately, the positive impact is totally unproven. I think it ought to be up to advocates of these changes to prove that they provide any benefits to minorities. I've heard as much talk from members of minority groups saying that they find it infantilizing and performative as I have from those who approve of the change.

Sadly Qt 5, due to the Qt Company pushing FOSS "freeloaders" on to bleeding edge and unstable versions of Qt 6[0], is becoming less and less viable for non-commercial, cross-platform app development.

Arch Linux now compiles Qt from KDEs fork[1]

The only ray of sunshine here is that, with Qt 5.15 being the last 5.x release, we may eventually see all distros shipping it instead of the horrible version fragmentation you see now (Ubuntu 20.04 LTS and CentOS Stream are still on 5.12, Debian 10 is on 5.11, RHEL 7 is on 5.9).

The rift being created between Qt 5 and Qt 6, and the lack of any stability for FOSS with respect to upstream support for Qt 6, means we will likely see lots more fragmentation on the KDE/Qt side in years to come.

Qt 5 will eventually end up like Qt 4, which has been dropped from Archs main repos[2], despite having over 500 packages in AUR depending on it[3].

Of course, depending on a single fork likely won't work either. The KDE fork is going to be naturally Linux focused, and probably won't care to tend to any Windows or macOS that arise.

GTK+ on other platforms sucks, but at least on FOSS platforms it's not a mess.

Do I understand it correctly, that the DPO did not put any money into the company?

If so, it was a pure "Here, we built something valuable. You can have it now if you pay enough" kind of deal with the investors?

Somehow this type of transaction always makes me feel a bit strange about the value of a company. Not sure if this is a rational thing or not. I think "Why did they bring it to the market at all?". What is the rationale for taking a profitable company that does not need additional funding public?
That sparked an interesting idea: would these work in a zero-gravity situation (mechanically I mean), and if not, how to adapt them so they would?

(And agree with the nostalgia - I'm sure for many the sound is associated with a quiet anticipation or excitement of embarking on a journey.)

By 2050—earlier, probably—all real knowledge of Oldspeak will have disappeared. The whole literature of the past will have been destroyed. Chaucer, Shakespeare, Milton, Byron—they'll exist only in Newspeak versions, not merely changed into something different, but actually contradictory of what they used to be. Even the literature of The Party will change. Even the slogans will change. How could you have a slogan like Freedom is Slavery when the concept of freedom has been abolished? The whole climate of thought will be different. In fact, there will be no thought, as we understand it now. Orthodoxy means not thinking—not needing to think. Orthodoxy is unconsciousness.

I do wonder if America will _ever_ make the switch to the metric system. The French managed it in 1799; backwards Britain had mostly managed it by 1972; and yet working with US engineers means that I occasionally find myself converting units like slugs or "circular mils" into SI units for FEM modelling. Wolfram alpha is a godsend. I just really, really hate the US unit system with a passion!

You can build a fanless x64 PC quite easily: 4-core Intel Silvermont/Goldmont or AMD Ryzen Embedded V and R series can be passively cooled. Many of those ITX boards come with a 19V DC-Jack power-in so you can use a laptop power brick and eliminate the PSU fan as well. Fujitsu used to have some nice designs, I think now it's owned by Kontron. Asrock also has a good selection for more retail-oriented products.

Of course you can also passively cool a full-fledged desktop CPU if you want but that's a different category in terms of price and performance so I am not talking about that.

As for power, I have Puma-based x64 4-core boards that idle at 5W and consume 12W at full load (measured at the wall). Goldmont should be similarly efficient. RPi4 is about 7W at load I think. Not a huge difference.

This one got me. You can’t just replace “MITM” with “PITM” and expect anyone to know what you’re talking about. I know what MITM means. I have no idea what PITM means at first glance. I suspect that nobody does.

So my main question is, who wrote that? Because I can’t imagine any technical person seriously suggesting that replacement.

One aspect of Coinbase I find interesting:

Without the distorting action of governments printing money, interest rates might be set by market forces inside "crypto land".

This might lead to a long term situation where artificially low interest rates are paid in government controlled currencies, but market prices are paid in crypto currencies.

If this leads to a mass adoption of crypto-lending, then Coinbase might be where people hold their funds. Because it is even more complicated to stake coins than it is to just hold coins.

Are there any forums on the internet where a serious discussion about these types of topics can be held?
If Robinhood was up-front with users there would be no issue, but they lied. They never mentioned liquidity issues when blocking trades.

Ask HN: GDPR and US-EU Latency
According to GDPR (https://europa.eu/youreurope/business/dealing-with-customers/data-protection/data-protection-gdpr/index_en.htm)

> Data transfer outside the EU
When personal data is transferred outside the EU, the protection offered by the GDPR should travel with the data. This means that if you export data abroad, your company must ensure one of the following measures are adhered to: a) The non-EU country's protections are deemed adequate by the EU. b) Your company takes the necessary measures to provide appropriate safeguards, such as including specific clauses in the agreed contract with the non-European importer of the personal data. c) Your company relies on specific grounds for the transfer (derogations) such as the consent of the individual.

According to https://www.cnil.fr/en/data-protection-around-the-world (if you click on the map on the USA):

> Data protection level : Authority and law(s). This country doesn't ensure an adequate level of data protection recognized by EU. Data transfers to this country require the use of transfer tools. This country has a data protection law and an independant data protection authority accredited at the international conference of data protection and privacy commissionners.

Q:
1. What are these "transfer tools"?

2. I'm planning to deploy my Saas (customers mainly from EU and US). I'm in Europe, so because of the great GDPR, I guess my only option is to host all my customer's data (EU and US) in european servers (I say "all", because to start with I want to keep infrastructure "simple": just one master database)... now the thing is latency for US customers. I've read that latency will be at least ~90ms. If you were one of my US customers, would you accept at least ~90ms of latency while using my Saas? (assuming you like all the features it provides and the price is attractive ofc).
Careful, you'll be blackballed.

Replacing "Man" with "Person" definitely feels more inclusive, and costs nothing. And using the same word to mean "Half of the human race" and "All of the human race" definitely feels like one of those things where the other half are going to feel like they're not full members...

Terms like man-in-the-middle, master-slave, whitelist/blacklist, abort which I barely learned 5 years ago in University are now being cancelled. Even first-class isn't to be used according to Google.

Public vs secret voting will always be different. I encountered this on daily basis. If vote in secret, one tends to be what one wants even if that is detrimental to others. As for self belief, public disclosed/known belief may not always be the same as self belief. This may consciously or unconsciously known by oneself. People do tend to vote in group if others see your vote.
There's barely any separation between physical and mental in this way. If you persist with mental issues without fixing them, you will get physical problems. If you're doing really well physically, it will to some extent assist with your mental health.

That said, you can always do both :)
Aside from the obvious ones, whose debate is polarized, there are some that would actually make things harder to understand (especially if one didn't know this list existed)

I assume this is for writing documentation/code for Google products, so if internal only, then I guess everyone is on-board and would get used to it. If it is
for external consumption as well, then it potentially just make things harder to grok.

A "full-featured client" is not the same as a "fat client" to me. "opaque-box" when reading would make me stop, think 'oh, do I need to look that up?' then realise it just means that it is blackbox and I should just not bother with it.

Reminds me of those people who like to use much longer and fancy words for something that does not need it.

Have you ever had a couple of sleepless nights in a row? Do you remember how tired, unproductive you were? In that state, would you rather exercise/sunbath/eat healthier/...? No, you would go sleep. The next day, you'll feel much better and then you would apply all those good advice.

It is neither good nor bad that you need to rest (mentally or physically), it's just how your body and mind function. Blaming yourself, adding judgement in this won't help, quite the contrary. Sometimes we have energy and we go forward, sometimes we're all stressed out, not feeling well, tired, you name it, and we need to rest. We all have theses cycles, only their duration and intensity varies for each person and it's totally okay. You are legitimate in needing some time off to feel better, the sooner you take some the sooner you'll be able to function again.

Don't put rigor and severity in this but rather self love. Have empathy for yourself in the same way you would if you saw a child in this condition. That's for the immediate term, but in the long run there's no better advice than to see a mental health professional. No book, no youtube video, no HN comment will equal the benefits of professional accompaniment.

Edit: resting can take many shapes. Sleeping, temporarily isolating yourself from your family, practicing an activity you enjoy, traveling, etc. Authorize yourself to do what you want to do without any "I should" / "I shouldn't" judgement.

I've heard people question whether we should use "grandfather" as a verb in that context, specifically due to its racist origin.

>> In saying that you are using Occam's Razor which is soley intended for distinguish two theories of identical explanatory value.

Is it? The Razor says "entities should not be multiplied without necessity" (see wikipedia). Assuming a third person is "multiplying entities without necessity". Any explanation that assumes a third person is "multiplying entities without necessity". So it should be cut by the Razor, meaning we don't need to consider it. It doesn't matter if there is no better explanation yet. Any explanation that doesn't assume a third person in the car will always be better than any explanation that assumes a third person in the car. So the Razor can indeed help us distinguish between likely explanations even when we haven't yet formulated those explanations.

Also, I'm curious- do you really think that if we don't have a good explanation then we're free to imagine anything we want? That's an obvious error of reasoning that you would have tried to avoid if you were aware of it, yet it really seems to me that this is what you're doing. Would you like to go over that for a bit?

Edit: I've edited this comment repeatedly to make it less contentious, like HN guidelines advice. I suggest we refrain from discussion of technicalities and avoid veering off into technical language, otherwise we'll just make this conversation even more tedious than it already is.

>Do modern TVs need high voltage circuits unless they're plasmas?

The way a lot of power supplies work, is that they rectify the 110V/230V to a reasonably high DC value, and change that to a high frequency AC signal so it can be transformed to a lower voltage with a smaller transformer.

This means there's typically some capacitors charged with sqrt(2) * line voltage during normal operation.
In a few months Apple is going to release a successor to the M1 processor, and then maybe in a year or two another revision after that. Apple would like your code to be optimized for that processor as well, in addition to the M1. The way Apple does this is by wrapping their hardware in a high-level API that knows how to use the hardware it is running on, rather than exposing architectural details and having developers hardcode assumptions into their code until the end of time.
