Good idea but it seems somewhat antiquated. Not sure why it merits a post here.

The hardest part of accounting for small business is payroll and taxes --- at least in the USA.

Checking printing is included ... but like cash, this is a small portion of modern payments. Most are done with ACH and wire transfers.

I do think committing via Github would significantly lower the friction of contributing to the Linux kernel for a chunk of the developer population, and there might actually be a decent well of untapped potential there.

Of course there will also be a lot of pull request noise, so I can't say if that tradeoff is ultimately worth it.

Edit: well I guess OSS people are extremely hostile to even the discussion of more people contributing to the Linux kernel. My bad.

What mega corp?
Google do not control the signing keys for Android for any phones other than their own Pixel line. So whilst true in theory, in practice the open source nature of Android with OEMs in the middle distributes the power around.
The word list already is 40k long. That's beyond most people's vocab and includes really awkward to spell words.

IMO, if the solution is to use words, then What4Words would have had a word list of less than 3000, resulting in a word list with less confusable words and more accessible to children and people who struggle to read or write.

This sounds a bit like Jon Gjenset's thesis project Noria

> Noria observes that, by having developers provide the set of queries their application will make in advance, the database can be smarter about how to execute those queries. In particular, it can choose to pre-compute, and incrementally maintain, the results for queries. This allows Noria to answer those queries quickly, and essentially obviates the need for application caches.

A question for you, Mr. Jewish hacker, a serious question, if I may.

The Commandment in Genesis 20:10 spells out the Sabbath rule. "But the seventh day is a sabbath to [the holy name]; you shall not do any work — you, your son or your daughter, your male or female slave, your livestock, or the alien resident in your towns"

There seems to be a streak of moral fairness here: don't work on the seventh day, and don't use your power over others to force them to work either. Everybody enjoys a day of rest, migrant workers and beasts of burden included!

How strong is this sort of ethical argument against hacks like Shabbat elevators?

"By consuming electricy needlessly we compel some electric-utility workers to be on the job, and we fail to give Creation a much-needed tiny bit of rest."

I know there must be some conversation among observant Jews about this kind of thing as it relates to the ancient commandments. How does it go?

Crypto Mania
Even if there's no money involved that can still damage the market for the work it derives from. It's one thing if the derivative work consists of original characters in the same setting, or existing characters but in a what-if scenario, but as soon as you start trying to write derivative works in the same vein as the original then you're damaging the original author's ability to market his existing work, and to continue that work himself. You are, in a very real sense, taking something that isn't yours.
The problem is that not having the library usually means you also don’t have the headers, so you can’t compile the C code that would use it. What you’re talking about isn’t impossible, but it probably requires either a binary distribution built from a system aware of these libraries (this is the Darwin+availability attributes approach) or some massive header repository that you can pull from to build things.

Americans do their American thing. That’s cool. I do my Irish thing and point out that a Murphy calling himself an Anglo-Saxon is utterly assimilated. Also cool. Americans pointing out that Irish and British people drink way more than Americans, and imbibe other narcotics at rates not normally seen outside Cuban-American locales. That’s cool. We can all notice that other people are different and get along, or not.

I like the anecdote, but I don't see what argument it offers.
Usually, the core maintainers are the one with the strongest context on the project, and thus would have the best knowledge of optimization locations.

Telling maintainers to dynamically link just in case someone wants to change the libraries is like having replaceable CPUs on motherboards. Useful for 0.1%, but requires a lot of working around.

Because what you're offering is a service, and not someone else's software. Your added value is not actually in the code or the cute pictures; it's being available, having a low latency, allowing people with no tech knowledge to take part in the discussion, building a relation based on mutual trust rathet than serfdom. It's fundamentally the difference between a user and a consumer.

> How do you "lose all organic connection to the culture of your ancestors" simply by

I don't think there is such a thing as losing the culture but a development into a different direction after the fork (migration).

A classic identity problem of the Indian diaspora or the Turkish immigrants in Germany or the Irish in Boston, or the Italian in NY is that they have retained many of the traditional values that were popular at the time in their countries before they left. But their old countries have moved on in every sense. These tribes then become more conservative because they feel like they have to defend their values from outside groups and from lack of new values that they can tie to their old labels. But what they "defend" no longer reflects the reality back in the old country.

This leads to some strange (but IMO understandable behaviors) where the old is much more idealized than what their peers do back in the old country. E.g.:

- Turkish AKP voters in Germany who only remember all the prosperity Erdogan has brought to an economically failing Turkey.
- The 3rd or 4th gen Italians in the US are hardly Italians in todays sense of Italy (even their food is laughed at back in their own country.
- Eventually the culture changes so much that it has no parallel to what it used to be.

That is neither good nor bad IMO it just is a natural progression and adaption to their new environment. Shedding the old values and stories people tell themselves takes not years but generations. The odd thing about the US is that despite its many influences from all around the world it is still a country where many groups hold on to what they think are their roots while actually it's a constant state of change and no longer exists.
This is not new at all. They tried to use mRNA vaccines for other diseases as well, but were never approved. This still holds true to this date.

What3Words accounts at Companies House in the UK are extremely interesting.

They burned through just over £15,000,000 in 2019, for a total revenue just under £400,000 from 100+ employees.
Because NASA is anchored by USA congress as a job creation program, not a space exploration program. Commercial Lunar Payload Services is not designed to create jobs across all USA and stretch it in infinity as is the case with SLS, so congress does not like it. That's also why they did not give the founding to make it possible to finance two services. Actually they did not give enough money even for one service and SpaceX had to agree to receive payments with delay.

> This decision was
based on NASA’s longstanding Option A acquisition strategy of making two Option A
contract awards. While it remains the Agency’s desire to preserve a competitive
environment at this stage of the HLS Program, at the initial prices and milestone
payment phasing proposed by each of the Option A offerors, NASA’s current fiscal year
budget did not support even a single Option A award. Working in close coordination
with the CO, it was therefore my determination that NASA should, as a first step, open
price negotiations with the Option A offeror that is both very highly rated from a
technical and management perspective and that also had, by a wide margin, the lowest
initially-proposed price—SpaceX.

There's quite a few C/C++ libraries for those things, right? Integrating them with proper FFI (of the kind that Chez has, for example - or LuaJIT, for that matter) seems hardly difficult...although differential equations or optimization problems may be better served without any language interfaces whatsoever since they involve functional parameterization. That generally sucks with mixed-language solutions, to the extent that GSLShell, the LuaJIT interface to GSL, completely skipped the DE solvers in GSL and reimplemented them in Lua for higher performance. I imagine that 'fast' in case of Python really needs to be quoted the way you did.

> If the browser uses WKWebView or UIWebView, you're right, you can "mock" an API by injecting JS, and through tunnelling you can recreate native functionality.

So, technically it can be done.

What's stopping them? Do you think Apple would count that sort of feature as "implementing your own web engine"?
Many comments seem to be critiquing Docker’s monetisation strategy.

If this is accurate, why don’t they just ask users what they would pay for? I’m sure customers understand that things need to be financially sustainable, so why not just ask the userbase their vision of a monetised Docker?
My impression is to implement things like the Play Store, Google Play Services has effective root access. I can't find any great sources for that though.

It comes down to how much money you want to spend for security. You need to pay every one of those multiple sources.

I could buy a second car as a backup in case I have car troubles. Heck, I could buy 2 spare cars. What I shouldn't do is pretend those extra cars are free.

SpaceX got picked because they were reasonably plausible and fit the budget. The other contenders best argument seems to be, "Oh, we didn't know just how little of your money we were going to get to spend. Can we try again with a smaller budget?"

For any small data set, the inefficiencies and Library Hell of $tooling don't matter... much.

For any non-trivial data set, the efficiency and internal consistency of $tooling is critical. Throwing stupendous hardware resources at a problem because the $tooling is unstable rubbish is the wrong approach.

For any non-trivial data set, the data must have a cohesive reason to exist. In other words... Big Data Garbage In, Big Data Garbage Out. Telemetry is often BDGI.
The next Covid-19 variant?
You seem to be assuming that a statically linked library won't have a subtle, edge-case bug, when in fact, it doesn't just work.

Even that could be env-related, so maybe it surfaced once you moved to a new Fedora release.

Basically, the problems are pretty much the same with either approach, one has a more complex runtime environment, other has a more complex upgrade story.

While I'd agree with Linus' take on shared libraries, I'd still say that "statically linked libraries are not a good thing in general either" (the stress is on general).
Perhaps I'm blind, but I can't actually see the number of commits on this page.
That's very informative, thanks! I do not pretend to know much about the details of the economics of these things.

That said, even 2x the price for strawberries (at least around here) would only be another $3-5, depending on what size container you bought. That would still fall in the range of "slightly higher" in my book, at least in an absolute sense.
> . If you brick my car if I don't have a Manufacturer Approved radio

Every bmw, Mercedes Benz, and every luxury car does this today. Millions of them on the road.

And it doesn’t brick the car, just anything in the path of the unapproved device (which guess where your radio sits)

But this is to avoid fake parts from being installed in your car.. so catch 22?
Yes. But physics has a layer of abstraction on top of the replication problem, if you will.

If you were to go through the physics literature, you would find studies that are hard to replicate. Maybe even my dissertation. ;-)

The "studies" that are hard to replicate in the social sciences are testing what I call isolated factoids, such as: If you give children a chance to eat a sweet snack, they will tend to become criminals as adults. There is no way to test this factoid except by carrying out more identical studies and hoping that statistics will converge in favor of an answer.

Instead, physics can attack a problem from multiple angles, especially by connecting different factoids with a web of relationships based on theory. If it works out, then you end up with a web whose structure remains reliable even if you knock out even a large number of studies. For instance I don't think we'd consider abandoning Maxwell's equations if we discovered that much of the early experimental work done in support of developing those equations was faulty.

This is why I actually think that replication is not actually the gold standard of science.
The word engineer is used by anyone who 1) has an engineering degree or 2) works a field where most new practitioners have such a degree. Most of these people don't know shit, and design terrible systems that barely work (or don't work at all). Trying to elevate the word to a non-existent Plutonic ideal where it means "great engineering" is just ... pointless and faux-humble.
Yes, that is the plan now. It was not the original because…we’ve never flown on another planet before. It was successful so they are changing the parameters after learning more. SCIENCE!
Shared wonder is a much better idea - every civilization that researches Computers tech will have operating systems, but only one gets to develop Linux (let’s say it grants a science boost to everyone who finished researching Computers, but a huge culture/diplomacy boost to the civ that actually “built” Linux).

Similar to every civ gets a library, but there’s only one Library of Alexandria, etc.

most software doesn't go anywhere, people loose interest and reinvent it after it's been forgotten by a majority.
In my opinion, improving user experience isn’t something that is easily done piecemeal. It’s one of those things that can require architectural changes to get right, and so it’s difficult to improve on existing projects. Fixing bugs and making things faster is “easier” in a sense because the end goal is obvious and you can target specific portions of code to make immediate improvements. Improving UX can mean making many architectural changes before being able to reap any fruit from your labor. I say this as someone who has worked on a lot of apps. I can’t imagine the difficulty of making several pull requests and getting them accepted without any clear output in the product itself.
That can't be right. The Normans as a people played a major part in European history from at least the year 911 through the Hundred Years War (1337-1453). I've never seen the faintest indication that they weren't still called Normans after leaving Normandy, by themselves and others, e.g when invading England and Italy.

I guess you meant more that the term fell out of use in England at some point, and Norman-descended people in England called themselves English. But even so, Norman is still a recognisable ethnicity - norse people who settled in France, spread by conquest into England, Malta etc. It could be a useful contemporary or historical label even if those people at a given time called themselves something else.

You haven't really refuted any of the points I made here about the essay itself. Can you quote any section where she writes about how much she loathes Nazi-ism? I quoted sections where she says outright that she agrees with their worldview and that made her uncomfortable.

The writer probably thinks or thought she loathed Nazi-ism, right up until she read and agreed with their propaganda, which is - as her essay makes clear - entirely mainstream (for that time) leftism. So, what does she really believe?

Hehe try jumping in the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Post-Keynesian_economics rabbit hole, where perhaps the simplified jumping off point is "growth follows demand".

That fact that we fund all this basic research, but then can hardly be bothered with the development part of "R&D" seems like a pretty strong anecdote in favor.
I would argue about that, I'm salvadoran, never been to the states and I would gladly say I'm latino, we even have an expression when we go abroad, "I miss the latino heat" which means that we miss the warm weather and friendly disposition of people in latin american countries, it's a weird phenomenon that you can't experience if you're not from a Spanish speaking country and have not gone abroad.

Generally speaking when you're in your country you'll sometimes have strong opinions about your neighbouring countries, Hondurans are this, Guatemalans are that, but when you're outside your country and you run into other latin american people, in my experience it was something really special we would greet each other as if we were long time friends, I think there's something more to it than language, I think most latin american people can relate to a certain kind of burden that comes with living in a latin american country, those burdens and the problems our societies have are pretty similar all around and I think when we meet in foreign countries we immediately relate in the way we perceive our societies and the things we've lived through.

Just as an anecdote, I went to Paris for a vacation and I went into a Five guys restaurant, usually you have to pay for a soda refill, but there was a dominican guy who was a waiter and he heard me and my SO speaking Spanish and he immediately smiled and came over and we had a nice conversation about our countries, and he let me refill our sodas for free, it's really nice and I don't know if other regions have something like this
This is so on-brand for HN - the article is about a writer now working as a delivery driver which is a juicy topic in itself, but most of the discussion is down the rabbit hole on an entirely tangential matter.
I agree. It's easy to overstate things, but over the next several decades I could easily see a computational personalized approach to fighting cancer: read the unique immunosuppressive markers, sort out what's tractable and what's not, then deliver a mRNA payload for that particular cancer for that particular person.

For the incredibly small amount that I know, it looks like a game changer. (Like everything else, though, there's a long road from theory to practice. Implementation is going be very tough)
Despite its name, it’s important to note that Nazi’s were strong on government ties to private enterprise and at no point ever would think to abolish private enterprise. In fact, Marxists and communists were considered political enemies sent to gulags whereas you don’t see that kind of treatment of right-leaning groups.

Similarly, looking at present day, we see modern day Nazis forming within right-wing political groups and allying heavily with right wing political groups while attacking groups that are left-leaning, including “socialists”.

I think the evidence starting you in the face doesn’t require such mental gymnastics.
I’ve said this before, and even looked into it, but my abilities with web/app development are non existent.
