I personally felt this experience recently with it's revival. I have a group that was quite active 10 years ago and we got back together for a few weeks once the platform revived. Unfortunately the room died out soon after. For me personally it was just easier to use Spotify due to built up playlists, mobile app, discovery weekly etc. I also felt a lot of pressure needing to be the DJ, rebuilding my playlist (some songs not available in certain countries) and always upvoting songs to not get kicked off stage. I hope they can continue to innovate in the space and carve out more sticky use cases.

It's a deeply personal thing.

I'm contemplating moving the family to another country and the biggest emotions I feel are connected to the financial freedom necessary to move.

I grew up in a low-income household, my grades weren't amazing, never got a stipend to study anywhere or go abroad, so being able to make this jump as a result of my own personal development is huge.

Luggage or not is beside the point for me though.
It wouldn’t be like that. Take a look at this https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ship_of_Theseus

I'm also interested in setting up research institutes. I'm obsessed with knowledge, I've built 2 companies (AI, robotics, Blockchain) and have a PhD in theoretical physics.

-The first one would focus on Automation, UBI and AGI. The goal is to actively accelerate the transition to a post-scarcity economy. The plan is to create, fund and invest in automation companies supported by the R&D of the institute. The goal is for this institute to be profit making.

-A second institute would fund fundamental research in math and physics, without any short term requirements to the researchers involved, not even publications. Researchers will be free to work on 100, 1000 or more long term projects. This a longer term project, since this institute would be funded externally, so a larger capital to sustain this would be needed.

I'm looking to fund researchers motivated by obsession for knowledge and genuine curiosity, uninterested in social status. Satoshi Nakamoto is a good example of the spirit which I look for: anonymously publishing ground breaking research without looking for recognition.

I made the move from Australia to Germany with little more than a small suitcase and a hiking pack. Looking back it's not something I would repeat.

You've got to be absolutely ruthless about what you sell or dispose of but seriously consider getting a pallet. It took me a long time to replace the stuff I sold for pennies on the dollar.

In the end I didn't find it particularly liberating. Though I think part of that is I went from living independently to relying on furnished apartments for a couple years. Living in a place that's not your own can eventually become grating.

On February 20th 2020 Tom Cotton speculated that it was possible that China deliberately released the virus or that it could be a bioweapon that had been released.

https://twitter.com/sentomcotton/status/1229202139232292866

This isn't a hypothesis a US senator should throw out on twitter because the right wing completely ignored the speculative nature or any qualifications and completely ran with Tom says they Chinese attacked us.

Loading on a hard drive means you want to arrange the data so that you can do bigger chunks. But by serial I mean start a load, wait for it to finish, start next load, etc, and you don't want to do that on any drive.
Awesome work! I was wanting to build a library like this myself but you've executed it way better! You should try to build and charge for a web API for this to let communities auto-generate avatars for their new users.
https://twitter.com/sentomcotton/status/1229202139232292866

He speculated that it could have been a bioweapon that was accidentally or deliberately released. You and I can speculate on twitter but a US senator should keep his trap shut on social media.
Right. I have doubts about the academic writer in 1889 using that meaning of "gay", as a phrase it was ambiguous then, and is _differently_ confusing now. Removing it seems like clarity not prudery. Indeed the opposite of prudery, it removes (literally) Victorian assumptions about the wearer of fancy clothes.

I would expect that this was fully automatic response, so there was nobody reading your message. Facebook somehow detected that your photo was too old. On the internet "fake" photo's are frequently posted and it is understandable that Facebook takes countermeasures. It is really difficult to find a good solution.
I don't disagree - IMO 95% of what's written in Rust should have been written in OCaml years ago. But often those languages aren't used, for whatever reason. If Rust is what gets us the actual big rewrite into memory-safe languages, I'll take it.
Concorde failed because of politics, not technology. The US wanted to make way for its own SST project so it limited Concorde's access to the US market.

A Concorde B variant with an even longer range and quieter engines was already being developed, and airlines were very interested in it. if the US market had been more open it's likely other markets would have followed suit.

Once it was stabilised in the market other improvements would have followed. Concorde was always a first class for the first class market, not an air bus. But if supersonic travel had become established there would have been market pressure to commoditise it, and we might have seen a continuing supersonic long haul market working in parallel with the smaller more local subsonic services we have now.

This silly list (for the several reasons that have been repeated in most comments here) makes me want to see another list that would actually be useful:

[0] disclaimer for nitpickers: obviously not for 100% of cases, but what we could say for the "general usage". E.g. I'm sure there is someone out there that claims an obscure feature of grep is not replaceable for their workflow... but for the other 99% cases, ripgrep is fantastic.

I never used Turntable FM but looking at the cover image for that article: Is that art done by the same person who designed Github's octocat?

I can't notice how similar the middle character's face looks to Octocat's face from Github.

But you're bringing up a good argument for preferring a binary over a script there - portability, external dependencies, performance are important factors.

I don't believe performance will be significantly different if you're comparing a C vs a Rust tool though.
Before Turntable.fm there was a small site called "Listening Room" by Abe Fettig

https://www.wired.com/2011/06/listening-room/

It was in the days when everyone had an mp3 collection - so you create a room with your friends and upload mp3s to a queue. It was very simple without any of the 'party' vibe of Turntable.fm.

I had a blast in there with a bunch of people from metafilter and had a go at making something similar. The eclecticness of what people uploaded was fascinating - something that didn't happen in my (admittedly brief) foray into Turntable.fm where it seemed each crowd would aggressively vote-off any track that wasn't bang on some ultra specific genre.

But the problem with 'chatroom where you upload your mp3 to a queue' sites like "Listening Room" was the licencing (even though you could try and make the case that its just like playing a record to friends at a party). I looked into licensing something like that as an internet radio station but it didn't work because of the multiple rooms.

So I'd love to see a modern version of 'chatroom where you play music to each other' but properly licensed and probably allowing a mix of streaming from spotify and mp3 uploads. Guess its too niche to be worth the licencing hassle.
Which security vulnerabilities have been found and exploited in the tools listed?
The legacy kids will all still be admitted. The more vague and subjective the admissions criteria, the easier it is to shoo-in the rich kids and pretend it's about anything other than money. No wonder they're getting rid of the SAT.
But C++20 is very different from the dialect supported by an old Watcom compiler. :)
Which security vulnerabilities have been found and exploited in the tools listed? I mean your point is valid, broadly speaking, but those usually apply to consumer software like, what Rust was initially designed for, browsers.

Bingo.
Me too, would be interesting (possibly by virtue of being boring). Hopefully one of these days we'll have a vehicle on Mars taking PRs on github.
grammarly?
It's similar, but lambdas don't specify the behaviour as precisely, and they're not as readable since the use of a lambda implies a different intention, and the syntax that transforms them into a scope block is very subtle. They may also have performance overhead depending on the environment, which is (arguably) additional information the programmer has to consider on usage.
it's open source you could just fork it and make a version without react. I think it sounds a bit entitled to ask for people to remove things like react from their projects.

What are the chances they did clean room implementations for all of these?
There's a reason for that. The web is roughly 90% static pages with JS sprinkled on top(usually jQuery), and 10% SPAs made in various frameworks.

React is a small part of the web(in terms of the number of people using it commercially) and thus a library written in React isn't terribly useful for most of the market.
So a fiercely “apolitical” company had decided to start a media (read “propaganda”) arm.

Good thing they won’t need to spend any time discussing politics about what they air and how they prioritize certain messaging there. I assume discussions about the wastefulness of crypto mining and damage to hard drives etc will not be a topic of discussion.

Well it was nice of them to jettison the people who thought it might be wrong to censor/ban that particular discussion before starting this maneuver/path.
Likewise, there are a lot of nice cities in Belgium that offer various balances of those requirements. I settled on Ghent, but Brussels has more nightlife and local forests at the cost of being dirtier and somewhat uglier. You might also like Liege, which is close to some excellent hiking and thermal baths.
who has time to move furniture around?

this is what i do:

i hire the movers

i go to a restaurant to dine and work

i then go straight to the new location where things are getting unloaded

i even went on a 3 day trip once. i went to the airport and when i came back everything was moved to the new house.

this carried over to my cleaning lady. she almost always comes around when nobody's at home. the feeling that you get especially after a long trip coming home and everything's clean and tidy is priceless.

things like these are totally worth it imo.
I know people here are a bit touchy about Rust, and writing everything in Rust. But here is one advantage I have found with Rust programs: The installation just works. Cargo, as a package manager, is just wonderful.

I have lost counts of how many times my "brew" or "pacman" failed to install something. It's much worse if it's Python; and things that work in macOS are not guaranteed to compile in Linux, and vice-versa. On the other hand, my "cargo install" almost never fails.

For that reason alone, I welcome any initiative to write something in Rust.
Interesting, just don't get the C++ dependency instead of doing everything in Go + Assembly.
From the article about forced labor:

> The many camps were used during the process of the expulsions for the sake of "rehabilitating" Reichs- or Volksdeutsche, to decide if they could stay or go, but in reality this was a program of slave labor.[12] Roughly 200,000 ethnic Germans died in the Soviet run concentration camps in Poland.[12]

Holy shit.
Just another day in web development with Safari, I'm not even surprised anymore. I've encountered so many of those "total nonsense" moments.
Klarna Cloud was a deployment of Cloudstack or Openstack (my memory fails me now) for internal usage, when there was still a lot of discussions around cloud lock-in, it was not an in-house built cloud platform.
Firstly, they were doing gain-of-function research, ergo it's absolutely "Chinese created".

Secondly, the lab in question was recklessly negligent. The videos of scientists holding bats with plastic gloves, stories that some scientists were bitten by bats and more.

Reckless negligence slips into responsibility area for me. Like if someone gets behind the wheel with a 0.15 blood alcohol concentration, which is what the Chinese lab did after multiple safety scares from 2017-2020.

Additionally, Dr Fauci personally approved funding to the negligent laboratory and then lied in Congress when questioned about gain-of-function research, covering up his personal involvement.

There's criminal negligence here, it's not a chance mishap. Not to mention the cover up.
Great software. We are managing terabytes of stocks data and realtime market scanners queries across all market (billions of books and timesales) with hundreds of concurrent requests.

"The things you own end up owning you."

I'm beginning to understand this more and more lately. The problem is with owning things you can't just replace. This could be either because you can't afford to replace it, like many people's cars, or that it holds sentimental value. Those things end up owning you. If your car breaks down you have to fix it. If you break a cherished plate, you cry.

I'm 35 and I still use plates and cutlery that I took from my last student house I moved from when I was 25. The house had accumulated a ton of this stuff over the years and we'd put most of it away in a cupboard. I took some of the better looking stuff. I fully expect all of this stuff to last the rest of my life. If some disaster happens and they all break, I'll replace them with more generic plates and cutlery I don't care about.

I think if you can resist accumulating stuff you care about, you will be far happier. Don't attach sentimental value to things. They are just things. Don't buy things you can't afford to replace outright if you need to, like cars. They quickly become liabilities. A big loss of stuff can be very rewarding as it reminds you of what really matters in life. But you should resist getting into the same situation again.

> a generic type specification which is only required if the compiler emits the concretization instead of the programmer. (I'm ignoring interfaces as they aren't really relevant here, that I can see. And hopefully I'm using the right terminology here.)

Unless I'm mistaken, the "generic type specifications" are just interfaces. Instead of specifying the concrete type of a function parameter, you specify which interface it needs to implement, and then everything else is the same (except you may need to define getters/setters if you need access to struct fields). There's no need to have a new language primitive. That's certainly how Rust does it anyway. And given that Go's interfaces are structurally typed, it'll be even simpler in Go.

I don't really understand the argument that generics are complex. As far as I can see, they're super simple.
There's also 'Conduit', a Matrix server written in Rust. It's alpha currently.

https://matrix.org/docs/projects/server/conduit
The ossification has nothing to do with the distinction between userspace vs kernel. The kernel can implement layer 5 (there are in-kernel HTTP servers!), and userspace programs can implement layer 4 (using raw sockets).

It has to do with the distinction that middleware boxes make between layer 4 and layer 5. NATs and firewalls and assorted traffic optimizers tend to vomit if you pass anything over IP that isn't TCP, UDP, or ICMP.

UDP is, by luck and design, a very thin shim on top of which a "layer 4.5" protocol is very easy to implement. Whether this layering is done in the kernel or in a userspace library is an implementation detail, and one that will probably be obscured even from many userspace programs.
I've been living the same way for much of the past 30 years. I don't want to completely give up my globetrotting lifestyle, but I crave a home base now. I plan to buy something modest to store things in and use as a primary home, but not so expensive that it precludes locking the doors for a year while I travel or live somewhere else.
Politics is everything.

We have wristwatch and pocket supercomputers with access to a global network.

But many people also live in a far more precarious economy, the global network is far too much a source of poor-quality or tainted information and toxic social experiences, monitoring and manipulation of all kinds are pervasive, and a compulsory personal ethic of branding, consumption, and selling is far more prevalent than anything more adventurous or creative.

You seem to have a real beef with Zerohedge.

Ironically, their twitter account was banned precisely for reporting on the possibility that the virus was a lab leak:

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/zerohedge-twitter-ban-over-co...

A thread about how the mainstream media is eating crow over being so wrong here is not really the best place in the world for you to grind your axe with Zerohedge.

Also, what are info wars?
You are assuming that the net negative for society is never high enough to justify kicking liars and crazy people off your platform. That seems like a remarkable conclusion. Lets take for example Alex Jones spreading the lie that kids didn't die in school shootings and the people talking about their dead kids are making it up. Do you keep spreading it until a whack job kills somebody? Until some parent commits suicide?

What about health misinformation that if propagated will kill thousands? How many dead is enough to act?

What if false info about vaccines keeps enough from being vaccinated long enough for a new variant to emerge that infects the previously immune and the net effect is millions die?

I don't think you want to be elected Emperor over this at all its a shittier job than you imagine.

There was a disinformation campaign against Hydroxychloroquine as well. In the failed JAMA study, they administered a nearly toxic dose at late stage patients (when there's no viral replication). This is now being investigated [1].

Show HN: Convert your visitors into valuable customers
Agreed. I will put it even more directly.

I could not care less about the hype squad screaming endlessly about every single side project that is written in Rust because of the sake of the language. If it is useful and it makes me money then fine, other than that I ignore it.

If the tool that is being developed doesn't help me make money, then I do not care or I won't use it.

As for choosing the best programming language? I do not care unless it is the one that makes me the most money. in some use cases, it is definitely not Rust.
If this is true, what might the reason for it be?

Maybe there would be too few boys in schools if requirements for girls reduce?

As you rightly point out, WordPress has a sweet spot of providing control over content to the customer.

The problem I see is that, in many instances, WP is pushed by dodgy developers running a template for what is a static site. This is easily the case for 90%+ of the small business sites I see. Many are never changed.

WordPress is a much larger attack surface than static hosting. There are fairly obvious ways of automating using WordPress to generate a static site that will be faster and more secure. I believe this is generally referred to as headless WordPress. Why does this not happen more – or do I just not see it when it does?
