Literally every conversation I have about blockchain.

Only half joking. Having worked in security and crypto, the solutions are often based on an opaque idea of fantastic complexity, which becomes a kind of mantra. It's like being in a movie called blockchain john malkovitch.
These special characters always seem to clash with my desire to copy and paste an error message from the terminal and have google find it for me.
It's more than that. I explained this last time someone asked, here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26842924
It doesn't entirely make sense because monetary compensation is only one of the rights granted by copyright.

Even music, which has compulsory licensing, grants the copyright owner the right to refuse to have their work used in certain contexts.

You could run the work like a corporation with a majority being required for the decision I suppose. But this gets sticky really quickly.
Poorer countries in Europe tax fuel more. If you raise fuel tax, people will find ways to buy less fuel. Generally this means more efficient (often smaller) cars, and perhaps prioritizing living more near to jobs etc.

The main problem is that fuel tax should be increased slowly so people can change their consumption accordingly.
I cannot read this article without subscribing, and the title gives very little information.

In 1970, an image of a dead protester immediately became iconic. But what happened to the 14-year-old kneeling next to him?
Teslas are not “gas sedans”. They are purpose built EVs. They are sedans and are one of the few sedans that are still selling. Most other manufacturers had seen their sedan market evaporate to the point that they have dropped those models entirely.

Since the current EV market is still very small, manufacturers target the most popular body style to maximize their sales. That is currently an SUV/CUV in the US and in many markets. It is to be hoped that, once the EV market gets large enough, there will be room for different body styles such as sedans or smaller hatches. Personally, I would prefer something closer to the ID.3 but that is not something I expect to see in the US any time soon.
The problem with Linux is manageability. We can't manage Linux as strictly as our security department wants. Well, we could, but it would mean mandating a certain distro and highly customising this, removing root rights and tightly locking stuff down with SELinux etc. The developers have no interest in this and neither do I to manage it. Too many awkward edge cases. They can use Linux but they're banned from the network.

And "Just install whatever you like and configure it however you want" will just not work if they want it on the network. I know, old-style traditional IT mentality but this is what we're stuck with. The word of digital security is the law here. I have to work within their rules.

Apple has good MDM management APIs that can't be overridden even by admin users, good hardware and the devs are mostly happy with it. Locked-down Linux is worse than locked-down Mac. It's a tradeoff for all of us.
this argument doesn't make any sense.

a photo doesn't have an API.
Extraordinary number of contemporary parallels. The FBI turning up to ask for the negatives. The reporter who interviewed her and then turned her in to the police. The people sending death threats to a fourteen year old girl, decades before twitter. And of course the wide public support for state sponsored murder.
Not necessarily - vaccine effectiveness also relies on the person's immune system actually developing the needed antibodies. Some fraction of people simply won't. This is also why vaccine effectiveness goes up with multiple doses - sometimes the first one doesn't take but the second one does.
I guess a lot of people (extrapolating somewhat from myself) feel like wearing a mask when you go in a building other than your home is not extreme nor has it been enforced in an extreme way, contrasting with your hypotheticals.

From what I read on the internet, it's long been a custom in many places in the far east to wear a mask whenever one has or might have the cold or flu or whatever.

At this point, I'm thinking why shouldn't we westerners adopt that, going forward?

It appears that wearing masks drastically reduced flu transmission, which seems logical given that it's much less contagious than covid-19. That presumably saved many lives.

And the common cold is not worth developing an advanced vaccine against, but what would we be losing if we prevent its transmission?

So I don't see why masks are a bad thing even if covid vanished tomorrow. There are so many measures we take to mitigate things that have substantial known and unknown risks, so it's mysterious to me why people are so vehemently against one with no downsides.

Stupid clickbait to cite Google (and to do so incorrectly).

I think the warhol foundation is in the right here, but the API decision has no relevance.
That ARM is on the cusp of finally dethroning x86, is really, for me, amazing me that Intel has kept it dominant for so long (3+ decades).

Partially it's amazing they remained on top, and also partially that they never managed to cannibalize their own success (like Apple and later Microsoft have done).
Donate annually or one lifetime gift do the money goes to the recipient instead of the finance industry.
Yes the GPL doesn't apply to work created by GPL software. I've heard people in companies be worried about it though because they misunderstand "using GPL libraries" as applying to work created as a product of them, rather than strictly software.
That has always been the core innovation of JIT. Offloading inventory costs onto suppliers makes your books look a lot better. Toyota did make a bunch of other improvements to streamline their manufacturing processes, but the just in time part is really just bullying suppliers into taking on some of your cost and risk.

I had 19¢ in a bank account I that sat dormant for 4 year. Still there when I logged in and started using the account again.
> that problem has been solved for literally centuries by the concept of giro transfers

Tangential:

From Wikipedia, "A giro transfer (...) is a payment transfer from one bank account to another bank account and initiated by the payer, not the payee. The debit card has a similar model."

Maybe it's my European bias speaking, but how does that even deserve a weird name? Isn't this how normal paying works? Who else should initiate the transfer? The payee? Why?
Big batteries would be nice for long trips. I'm working on an EV conversion right now that ought to get me a hundred miles of range when I'm done, which is good enough for about 98% of my regular driving. (Getting more range with a conversion can be tricky, as it would mean adding a lot of weight to the vehicle.) Sometimes it's nice to go to the beach, though... 100 miles would get me to the beach, but it's not enough get back. Most of the places I'd want to park my car for a day at the beach don't have chargers. And quick charging isn't going to be an option.

I hope eventually we get to point where we start adding electrification to major highways, so that vehicles don't even have to stop to charge. Then range will be much less of an issue.
Car companies are literally paying 6x to 8x 2019 prices right now and still can't get stock.
My opinion is that the industry has gone in the wrong direction with batteries. Cars should use swappable rechargeable batteries swapped by robots at the charging station. Faster pit stops and simpler batteries (no need for water-cooled, etc) and cheaper cars. And elimination of concern of battery warranty.
LuaRT main goal is to facilitate access to the Windows operating system functionalities without the need for C interoperability (no need for binary modules or FFI layers), hence the choice for PUC Lua :)
Seriously, try to reach and contact some prominent youtube creators in the gaming world. Try to make them do videos about this, maybe regular youtube users that see this can complain for your part. Don't give up. If everyone complains and tells Youtube that they'll move to LBRY and Odysee.com they might notice someday.

I love the cybertruck just because it's so absurd, but unfortunately I think the novelty will wear off the first time you see another cybertruck on the road.
You can scale as an agency or as a SaaS.

As an agency, think of building pods of 2-3 people, maybe a designer + 2 developers. You'll be part of the first pod, so step one is to build your first team. The idea (simplified) is that if you figure your way to 2 pods, then you can scale to 10+.

As a SaaS you want to think to a recurring problem your customers have and automate them. It won't be the full 1:1 consulting, just a little piece. But you may already convert these existing customers.

The two are not mutually exclusive at the beginning in the sense that you can start finding a partner, build a SaaS together part time and see how it works/what you like better.
There are definitely management types that see "free" software as "I can't yell at the vendor if something goes wrong." I've seen this many times in government contracts. It's a CYA move IMHO. Even if the vendor is never going to fix the bugs you find, you can at least blame them for not delivering on time.

Of course it's even more silly when you consider that you're never going to be making patches to Maya, so in theory nothing is lost on the Blender side here.
I wasn't trying to win, I was trying to offer you an honest suggestion.

You do lack an understanding of Occam's Razor and I encourage you to go learn more about it. It simply cannot be used to rule out explanations like you are saying. It only provides a heuristic preference between explanations that make identical predictions.

Occam's Razor is an epistemic guideline that was originally formulated in the terms you specify, it is however a concept that has been widely discussed and refined beyond that original formulation.

If you aren't interested in going past reading on wikipedia, the article there does touch on the Razor's limitations even if it doesn't delve deeply into the reasoning behind them.
Quoting Google v. Oracle is really grasping at straws in my opinion. The SCOTUS opinion in Google v. Oracle was actually quite insightful and clear in that the need for the "line-for-line" copying of just the API declarations was the bare minimum needed for interoperability in the world of software.

None of those concerns exist in this case of Warhol copying a photo of Prince. There may certainly be other reasonable reasons for or against Warhol's use of the photo on fair use grounds, but the Google v. Oracle case is not one of them.
IIRC ULA had a plan to run an internal combustion engine off the hydrogen/oxygen boil off, providing power for stage systems and or cooling/recondenser in their ACCESS upper stage concept.

Of course ideally you don't want to loose any propelants to boil off but it still seems like a nice idea.

The AWS Snowmobile pages only talk about migrating INTO AWS, not OUT OF.

from https://aws.amazon.com/snowmobile/ :

AWS Snowmobile is an Exabyte-scale data transfer service used to move extremely large amounts of data to AWS. You can transfer up to 100PB per Snowmobile, a 45-foot long ruggedized shipping container, pulled by a semi-trailer truck. Snowmobile makes it easy to move massive volumes of data to the cloud, including video libraries, image repositories, or even a complete data center migration.

from https://aws.amazon.com/snowmobile/faqs/ :

Q: What is AWS Snowmobile?

AWS Snowmobile is the first exabyte-scale data migration service that allows you to move very large datasets from on-premises to AWS.
Office Chairs Are Scam
This statement is simultaneously both true and false.

It's true in that yes they are agitators and trolls.

But it's false in that the line between unserious troll and serious activist was blurred or erased long ago, and most recently with Trump being elected president.

It's no longer possible to distinguish between unserious troll attempt and serious statement when such a large audience subscribes to the trolling as their actual reality.
There is a recent change that only shows the hostname portion. Very different than what you are describing.
I'm doing my best to have hope and reaching out to everyone I know but I've exhausted the resources I have as a smaller creator. Outlook bleak to be honest.

South Korea Financial Regulator Suggests Crypto Exchanges Could Be Shut Down
You can use tippecanoe (https://github.com/mapbox/tippecanoe) with the --output-to-directory flag to output the individual .pbf tiles instead of a single MBTiles file. These tiles can then be hosted on something like s3 and your map-rendering client can query the necessary tiles, no server required.
You claimed there was something beyond the surface level racism and white supremacy, but you haven't really provided that. Trolling journalists doesn't make them any less racist, especially when they use racism for trolling.

There doesn't seem to be anything "deeper". Just straight up white supremacy.

[EDIT] (since I'm now throttled for some reason)

You can go on /pol right now and see it's full of white supremacy and hate. You claimed there's some deeper meaning to all of that. There's not though, it is exactly what it looks like.
I don't think it's really "stupid clickbait". The entire reason the Warhol Foundation went back to the appellate court was so they could cite Google v. Oracle as a new decision thus requiring review.
> The fact that one country does not use it is not an argument that that standard is not a standard.

My point was slightly different. Poland does use the standard, the same standard. It just so happens that the standard has "B" variants for several icons.

I guess it's sort of an improvement that I only need to know 1.5 sets of icons instead of 3-5 different ones.
So far every M1 Mac has had the same entry price point (except IIRC the MacBook, which was priced lower), with comparable or higher specs. They very seldom increase (or decrease) margins on a given product line, and I seriously doubt this is an exception.

They tend to target a feature set, margin (generally ~30% on Macs), then price point—usually in that order. Given the pricing so far, my impression is they’re generally taking reduced costs as an opportunity to improve the entry level feature set.
Google also has verbatim search, which works a lot better than quotes, but still fails with some symbol keys.
I wonder how we escape this trap.

Cars are 1-2 ton machines that can kill you as a cyclist or pedestrian, and humans are awful at operating them. The solution is therefore apparently to put more of those machines on the road (for self-protection) instead of reducing the risk altogether?
I explained it in a comment here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26842924 and here https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26659709
None of those are start-ups, though. They've either IPOed (CloudFlare, Zoom) or been acquired by publicly-traded companies (WhatsApp).

A startup is a company that might still need to pivot to find its final business model, potentially shedding its entire existing infrastructure base in the process. Start-ups are why IaaS providers don't default to instance reservations — because, as a startup, you might suddenly realize that you won't be needing that $10k/hr of compute, but rather $10k/hr of something else.
I think what you're saying is very much in line with my initial comment, if we skip out on extensibility for a second.

If the Blender foundation offered paid support, such that studios used it like a black box (e.g like Maya etc), then the GPL part doesn't matter. They can get someone else to take on the burden and supply them with builds.

Blender however doesn't offer that and I think it's a missed opportunity.

However even if that were the case, extensibility is important. And unfortunately, blender doesn't have any API other than Python, and its API is GPL too. Studios need a C like API for performance reasons, and using the API shouldn't affect the licensing of their own code.
Well, this guy finally considers himself too old to run for re-election again:

SLS had a big fan in him, and he used to punch above his weight in space matters.
Is it just me or does the conclusion not follow from the data? They say that the 6 foot rule "has no physical basis" because 60 feet is just as dangerous/safe - but surely that's irrelevant? What about 3 feet? 1 foot? If 6 feet is safer than that, then the rule is just fine - optimal, even, if the danger plateaus!

tl;dr Headline could just as easily read "6 foot rule highly effective - just as safe as 60 feet!"

That wasn't the issue. Fujitsu, who operated the system, had access to post office branch systems with full access, but this was denied. The postmasters were prosecuted individually without good enough representation. The 2019 judgement is a good read about how the prosecutions happened and how the evidence was presented [1]. Really, formal methods and bugs were not issues, this was a system with humans in and someone decided that some of the humans should be blamed for issues, because the balance of power let them.

Yes, sounds just like the case of Ashli Babbitt. Shot for breaking a window during an act of civil disobedience.

The same people who think there was nothing wrong with shooting Babbitt also think it's wrong to shoot a teenager as they swing to stab someone. Babbitt was a right winger, so she is subhuman.

Her death was covered up. We don't know who fired the shot or exactly why charges were not brought against them.

Anyone who defends Babbitt gets a lot of internet hate and death threats.

I wasn't familiar with the Teensy Audio Library, it looks really fun and well-featured.

Faust is also popular for this purpose (this is mentioned in the linked page). You write audio code in Faust and it gets compiled to tight C code, so that works well for embedding. It also has an impressive set of libraries. For a different approach, you could also try Soundpipe. It's a C library, not initially meant for embedding but it's small so it could work.
The ID.4 could be considered to be an electric version of the VW Tiguan. It is similar in internal size and capacity and it targets the compact CUV customer but with electric drive train. It does use a newer platform. Even the styling is quite restrained and conservative compared to other EVs.
Thanks for letting me know. It is our first time creating something like this so the feedback and suggestions are super helpful.
...assuming that everyone is wearing masks, the article eventually clarifies.

How is that any different from non-electric planes?

Generally, they don't just fill airliner tanks full for every flight. They fill them with enough to reach their destination, plus enough extra to reach their alternate if they get diverted, plus enough for 45 minutes more flying.

Obviously a lot of the modern web is crazy and many sites are pretty heavy on resource usage.

It's still not comparable with your average developer tooling in terms of footprint, was my point.

We've got a 3, and I strongly agree. It's a lot of money (to me), and the car needs to be able to do normal-car things like roadtrips.

It would be one thing to buy a $10k commute appliance with limited range, but at $50k, it damn well better be able to be the "nice car" for roadtrips as well as for commuting.
> But realistically there is only so far that optimizations can take it - DDR4 is DDR4, and it's the workload that makes the most difference.

Except the M1 is a novel UMA architecture where the GPU & CPU share RAM. There's all sorts of architectural improvements you get out of that where you can void memory transfers wholesale. There's no "texture upload" phase & reading back data from the GPU is just as fast as sending data to the GPU. Wouldn't surprise me if they leveraged that heavily to get improvements across the SW stack. The CPU cache architecture also plays a big role in the actual performance of your RAM. Although admittedly maybe the M1 doesn't have any special sauce here that I've seen, just responding to your claim that "DDR4 is DDR4" (relatedly, DDR4 comes in different speeds SKUs).

> Your average Apple user is likely not a developer though (as others are very often pointing out on HN, whenever they make non-dev-friendly hardware choices). Furthermore, I would think such telemetry would be a self-fulfilling prophecy; if you have a pitiful 8GB of RAM, you're not going to punish yourself by trying to run workloads you know it wouldn't support.

No one is going to model things as "well users aren't using that much yet". You're going to look at RAM usage growth in the past 12 years & blend that with known industry movements to get a prediction of where you'll need to target. It's also important to remember that RAM isn't free (not looking at the $). I don't know if it matters as much for laptop use-cases as much but for mobile phones you 100% care about having as little RAM as you can get away with on your system since it dominates your idle power. For laptop/iMac use-cases I would imagine they're more concerned with heat dissipation since this RAM is part of the CPU package. RAM size does matter for the iPad's battery life & I bet the limited number of configs has to do with making sure they only have to build a limited set of M1 SKUs that they can shove into almost all devices to really crank down the per-unit costs of these "accessory" product lines (accessory in the sense of their volumes are a fraction of what even AirPods ships).
