I have YouTube TV - which is great by the way - but the fact it doesn't include YouTube Premium for free or the ability to add YouTube Premium for something like $5/month just sticks in my craw. So being the stubborn mule that I am I refuse to pay the $12/month for YouTube Premium and now I'm watching less and less of YouTube as a result.
I read the comment as saying that actual robber barons are worse than busy bodies.

Take the oil and gas industry for example. They have known for 40+ years that they cause global climate change while disavowing it publicly and funding fake scientists and interest groups to spread FUD about it. I think the effects of global climate change will be at least an order of magnitude worse than well intentioned busy bodies. Climate change doesn't sleep.

(You could easily say the same about the tobacco industry, advertising monopolies, social networking websites, etc.)
We (me and some folks at my old consultancy) wrote an Erlang version of Redis (https://github.com/cbd/edis) for some of the same reasons - multithreading changes some of the scaling semantics in interesting ways. It was mostly for fun but ended up in some real projects as a simple REDIS protocol implementation front-end where the backend could be replaced with whatever the implementor wants.

In OUR universe, at least.

If a black hole ends in a white hole, Gosh only knows how complex things will end up at the other end. Witness, for example, our entire reality.
I'm not sure I understand what you mean here.

Let's say you had two routers.

1 with NAT and 1 without.

They both will have a firewall that by default blocks incoming traffic.

So they are functionally equivalent.
The one thing I really don't like about Calibre is how it will copy all of my ebooks into its own file organization. There is probably a way to disable this, but that is the default.

Kind of irritating when you have Calibre in a cloud-storage folder and your books are also in the cloud storage, and it uses up your space with duplicates.
Wonder if this could spur local manufacturing again if transportation costs start to out weigh labor / material costs.
Yes, and on your first point I think this will be a recurring addendum to my post. My point is that we must address the class issue between and within racial groups or simply put: American culture. It requires compartmentalizing and understanding this more heavily, instead of looking only at the result. We are chiseling at the top of an iceberg, trying to trace backwards and assuming people feel a way that many otherwise supportive people really don't feel, instead of tackling a root cause.
I'm afraid that attempts to change it will ruin it, like many other things. Calibre just works and once you've learned how to use it, it's great that it doesn't change on you for no particular reason. I personally wish it remain unchanged.
This is the workflow I follow, but my experience is it's pretty high-mental-overhead in practice - Git doesn't draw a distinction between commits that I created because I'm still working on something and want to switch branches, and are therefore reasonable to modify, and commits that came from some remote source and which you want to keep intact. They're both "commits." That means you, the user, have to keep track of which is which and think about which Git operations might disturb the wrong type of commits.

I'd like Git to have a mode where, say, git rebase -i won't show me published commits by default, only work-in-progress ones. (This isn't necessarily the same as "commits since the remote branch we're tracking," since it's possible to end up tracking a branch that's behind for some reason, or even in a situation like a detached HEAD where you're not tracking anything at all.)

I'd also like Git to keep track of whether I'm done with a commit and ready to publish it. Usually when I commit to switch branches, it's because I'm thinking about the branch I'm switching to, so I don't want to spend the time yet to write a three-paragraph commit message about my current work. But that makes it too easy to push an incomplete commit message.
Submarines tend to operate at CO2 levels around 3500 ppm, and there doesn’t seem to be strong evidence of any cognitive effects.

Infectious disease would be more of a concern, but the submarine itself is a pretty effective quarantine.
Look up redlining to see how banks accomplish this even when they're legally supposed to be blind.
You can do it on Pinephone with two different independent operating systems, one on the eMMC storage and the other on the microSD card. When you put in the microSD card, the devices boots from it. Otherwise it boots from the internal storage.
Indonesians don't mind saying "too many people", as most of their population of 270+ million lives on the island of Java.

However they have other very large islands (Sumatra, and part of Borneo) that could be settled, so it's not an insurmountable problem.

China's and India's large populations are their Achilles heels - they need vast quantities of food and water, yet China imports 50% of some food items, and India relies on Himalayan headwaters that China is diverting.
NAT, in general, is a hack that requires holding a lot of state in order to squeeze multiple devices into a limited number space.

On a technical/complexity level, IP NAT is much worse because you need to hold much more state, i.e. you need the UDP/TCP flow information to rewrite correctly.

However, MAC NAT is the pinnacle of stupidity for an entirely different reason: there should be no need for it. MAC addresses only have local significance, and while there are some long-term concerns about them running out, there is absolutely enough of them right now. There should simply be no need to do MAC NAT, if only it wasn't for the shortsighted 802.11 design decision to go with 3 addresses in the header.

FWIW, MAC NAT is almost the same thing as a router with ARP/ND proxying turned on, though possibly implemented on a different level. This is the technical reason it's an extremely stupid hack: proxy ND/ARP provides pretty much the same thing, but in a much cleaner way. (The difference is that with proxy ND/ARP, the "router-ish-bridge" assumes ownership of the lower-layer exchanges, i.e. ARP & ND, and just does normal routing with that. MAC NAT, meanwhile, tries to be clever and just forward ARP and ND. Reasons for doing that are ... extremely thin IMHO.)

I recall reading a few years ago that the port of Oakland was in a precarious spot due to being outcompeted by excess capacity in Southern California ports as well as gulf coast ports via the Panama Canal. I would guess that is not currently an issue given the shipping backlog?

Edit: yeah I’m seeing articles about a historic backup at the port of Oakland.

1) Don't watch TV, streaming, youtube, etc
2) Be healthy. Make sure to eat well, exercise, etc (to keep your energy levels up)
3) Don't burn small amounts of time (you can get a lot done in 15 min)
4) Avoid unintentional social media (...I should take my own advice)
5) Work on things that are fun, strive for focus/ "being in the zone"
6) Stop caring what other people are doing and how much of it they are doing.

lastly, I'd recommend that you don't worry about prioritization that much... just worry about being focused on the things that you really care about. The more you care about it the less things will get in your way.

I am personally convinced that US contract tracing results were suppressed. Massive amounts of data was collected and I believe it was possible to compile data from it about the situations and activates where transmission was known to occur.

My guess is that the data could be used to argue against the public health policies of the same organizations that were collecting it. I looks forward to some of the data analysis released in the coming years.

There's usually no problem with a religious marriage counting as a civil marriage, except for edge cases like religions who accepts polygamy etc since all the rules that are needed for civil marriage (and more) are typically also required by mainstream religions.

And religions mostly have no problem with civil marriage as long as nobody forces them to bless it. Exceptions: I guess WBC and a few others.

HN Meta: A YC founder's comment was edited to remove their username
Calibre is great. There’s a real lack of good quality ebook software and Calibre is an essential do-everything toolkit.

The interface, however, is like some incredible piece of outsider art, gloriously free of best practice, convention or accepted wisdom.

As a UX designer it gave me some trouble at first, but now I’ve genuinely come to appreciate it. There’s no way the interface could be ‘improved’ by conventional standards of aesthetics or usability without losing the thing that makes it special in the first place.

What's New in FreeBSD 13.0
avahi (the standard Linux mDNS implementation) has settings to set up proxying between multiple segments.

It's not ARP relay, it's proxy ARP. That's a builtin feature on the Linux kernel, with 2 distinct modes to configure and enable it. (a) /proc/sys/net/.../proxy_arp, or (b) ip neigh add proxy ...; the latter way is more fine grained while the former is just an interface-wide switch that you flick on.
Essential OSS for me, I wish the new update can be more user friendly though, something like "downloading at the backend and prompt you to update when you feel like it"

It's hard to recommend KSP now.

I installed it last weekend out of nostalgia. Turns out you're automatically opted in to analytics that includes identifying information about your specific machine. Opting out is not possible; the game shows you a button which is apparently supposed to open a web page where you can delete the information collected so far but not opt out. (I say "supposedly" because the button didn't do anything for me when I clicked it. It's what I gathered from reading about it on forums.)

So you have to discover that you have to edit two config files to suppress some of the analytics, then download some fan-made Unity Analytics DLLs, that were reverse-engineered from the originals but are no-ops, to suppress the rest.

Fuck that shit.
i like how nobody is addressing my original points
You can basically either pay for this for ~3 years or buy an M1 machine for the ~same amount of money.

With the differences being:

1. The M1 machine will most probably feel faster, Mighty can't even build custom servers with M1 processors or whatever comes next from Apple as of today.

2. The M1 machine will probably retain some value after 3 years, your Mighty subscription will retain no value, you can't resell it or anything.

3. Using your own laptop means you won't have to send your data to Mighty servers at all, as such if there's some security bug in their system it won't impact you.

4. Using your own laptop means that downtimes or unexpected service errors from Mighty won't matter to you either.

5. Using your own laptop means that if your internet connection goes down temporarily and you are using a well designed web app that handles that case you might not even notice that you went offline, with Mighty I guess the whole thing will just stop responding, which isn't great.

6. On the other hand using Mighty might allow you to run multi-GB applications remotely consuming fewer resources, but like if you need to run those kinds of applications wouldn't it make more sense to just buy a beefier machine? Mighty servers seem to be limited to 16GB anyway, plus as far as I know V8's heap for JS is hard limited at 4GB currently, these browser apps that takes tens of GBs of RAM don't exist.

At the end of the day though without even considering all the issue will Mighty even fell faster than a 16GB M1 Macbook? If yes how much faster? If not this is already a non starter. And we haven't even seen what the M2 or M5 or whatever will ship in the new Mac Pros will be able to do.

Well, as at least one other commenter in this thread already pointed out, this is possible with WDS (Wireless Distribution System). However, this needs to be supported by the access points. If it is supported (for example on APs running OpenWRT), it is literally just a matter of enabling WDS on the station and client APs, and bridging the wireless interfaces to the ethernet interfaces.

I've been using this setup in my home network for years now (with a dedicated OpenWRT device for each wired "island") and it works great.

Edit: To clarify, yes, this establishes a single broadcast domain. For example, DHCP and ARP requests are propagated through the entire network.
Calibre is great, but if you just want to throw a directory at an ebook server and be done, Ubooquity is GREAT! https://vaemendis.net/ubooquity/
I think getting out the M2 before the fabled "M1X" actually makes sense. This could explain the decision to put the M1 into the new iPad Pros, to re-use the M1 chips elsewhere once the new M2 becomes available.

Main reason being the M1 was a more proof of concept and rushed out (despite being as good as it turned out to be). The M2 will be a more refined M1 but with notable improvements such as LPDDR5 support - akin to AMD's Zen1 and Zen+ releases.

On the other hand, there could be a M1X being readied for release in the upcoming June WWDC. It may be architecturally older than the M2 but still superior performance on a big cores differential, e.g. M1 only has 4 big cores and 4 small cores, the M1X just needs more big cores to be notably more performant.

All highly speculative of course, will have to find out in about a month.

I grew up in the country. Outside urban areas it's normal to have multi day power outages in the US. The less people your circuit serves the lower it's prioritized for repair.

Our longest outage was a bit over a week. Several days was normal.

And backup power is never enough to charge EV. You would need to run typical 120v 1500w generator for days.

We used our gas car for backup power. Many others did too. Idle and hook an inverter to battery and it will do 1000w output for a couple days.

Rural is a bad sell for EV's because they don't have 80kw supply needed for charging stations or reliable enough electric.

> And I fail to see why anyone would use this, you need high speed internet capable of streaming 4k for one and if you have access to that, then chances are you also have access to a sufficiently powerful computer capable of running chrome locally

That's a weird assumption. Where I'm from gigabit (or at the very least 100mbit) fibre is the norm, which means fast 4K-ready internet cuts across virtually every socioeconomic demographic.
Building a container port to handle large vessels is a big capital expenditure. And you also need a labor pool, and trucking / rail facilities. It's not something you can come up with quickly to take advantage of an event that everyone hopes is short term.

Labor shortages related to covid on the US west coast leading to delays wouldn't be significantly helped by adding another port on the US west coast.

From the bottom of this article, it does look like there's some room in alternate non-US ports, although that seems expensive and time consuming.
As far as I can see: Bellingcat is laundromat for Mossad, after WikiLeaks became laundromat for Russian intelligence.

They still are a citizen journalist type of outfit, they don't take direct funding from government orgs. But they have to suspect some of their anonymous analysis contributors are working with a state agenda and resources.

As a result, Bellingcat unlikely to go after Israelis in Gaza, but more likely to go after ISIS terrorists, Syria, Russia. WikiLeaks more likely to focus on US politics and NATO, than to look at Putin's finances or Russian banks.

But then all of advanced journalism becomes murkey, as you can be independant, while only looking at what your anonymous sources give you. Is NYT or WP independant when it runs an article on national security by the CIA or DoD for censorship, and securing those future juicy leads?
> "There was another time that he insisted on having intercourse regardless of me saying I didn’t want to"

I've seen a couple astrophysics videos over the last few years that put forward the theory that many black holes are the result of a neutron star forming in a binary or trinary star system. The initial explosion and the ejecta creating a situation where the neutron star begins to siphon material off of its partner.
It depends on the size of the black hole. One with the mass of the Sun would rip your head from our feet under a tidal force of thousands of gravities. One the size of the monster at the heart of our galaxy has tidal forces so gentle that you wouldn't even notice them until after you were inside the event horizon.

If this seems non-intuitive, remember that the Schwarzschild radius varies linearly with mass, and tidal forces scale like mass / radius^3. So tidal forces at the event horizon scale like 1/mass^2. A black hole that is 100 million times heavier will have tidal forces that are 10 quadrillion times smaller at its event horizon.
I meant that this information is not a problem to share, and that sharing information in one case does not imply sharing it in all cases.
I have wished for a system like this forever.

I have no qualms over a test. We all need to take tests.

I dropped my motorcycle endorsement when I had kids. There were too many death notices in the newspaper where a guy about my age was killed because a car "didn't see them" and turned right in front of them.

In most cases there wasn't an indication that they were speeding or drunk or on drugs, just that other people weren't paying attention. And maybe that the rider didn't allow for that.

> Unfortunately we also have to inform our users that we could no longer support AdMob for use in their own apps either, because we can't test it anymore and can't guarantee that Google won't treat them in the same brutal way.

So apparently users were able to do stuff with AdMob on DroidScript's back, and maybe AdMob registered these fraudulent actions with some Google-ID which was assigned to DroidScript.
This kind of service lives and dies based on the experience customers initially get. It makes sense to put the price tag on a level where you can provide top-notch service, even if it means serving less customers at first.

It's not a bad thing if people get the feeling your service provides great experience, but is too expensive. You can fix this later by dropping price or giving discounts.
I've done a C clean room version and I will say that the networking part is as important as the multi-threading the data structures:
https://github.com/raitechnology/raids/.

If you go to the landing page of the above, scroll down to the bottom, there is a TCP bypass solution graphed, using Solarflare Open Onload and it is capable of running several times as fast as the Linux Kernel TCP. I didn't test Redis with Open Onload, but I'm pretty sure you'll get a similar results since TCP is a major performance bottleneck in Redis as well.
I guess I'm more thinking if the target is enterprise (because it's 30$ a month), what enterprise is going to green light workers using a browser where content doesn't reside on the user's machine? I've worked several tech jobs where it's mandated to use a specific browser because it's locked-down to not leak sensitive information. Not to mention it allows users to access internal resources. IDK I'm not necessarily hating the product, just don't know how it's going to work at scale for the listed CPU/Memory/Price point
