Yea, I'm not saying I want a kinetic or offensive solution either. More like, it might be possible. Like if someone kills a bunch of people in France and flees to Germany, then Germany is going to hand them back over to France. Clearly not everywhere has extraditions, but you can imagine a world where hacking isn't so much tolerated and defended against as punished and thus uncommon (like breaking into a house; you can but you're not supposed to and there's consequences).
Government provides an encrypted platform, a bank for money laundering, ... the supply chain has long been CIA side hustle. Basically private drug criminals are really federal contractors by now.
I think you can just talk to the person at the other end and ask for accomodation. I use Zoom for interviews, but if someone emailed me and was like "can we use Google Meet" I would be happy to change. Similarly, if someone texts me "I can't open that link to the photos you sent", I can just email them the photos.

It's not really a big deal, and I don't think that your unwillingness to talk with your friends or business partners makes Google a public utility in a regulatory sense.

What's interesting about that?

Emulating SNES and Genesis games was fun back in 1997 but really are we not tired of that by now?

Just how many times can you go through the emulator dance of downloading all the games then playing each for less than 3 minutes before you give up.

Because turning off cars and trucks would be a quality of life disaster for most people on the planet.

Turning off bitcoin would immediately remove a sizable developed nation sized chunk of annual co2 production, and would negatively impact practically nobody in comparison.

People fixate on it because it would be a trivially easy win.

I think comparisons to the ouya are pretty on the nose. Before the ouya came out gaming hipsters were all hyped about it. then it came out and it was a flop.
I don't think this will be a "flop" because they are pricing it so high and this isn't panic's main business but I do think it will be quickly forgotten about.
"What do you do when you have a job interview that is scheduled as a Google Meet meeting?"

Unlikely scenario; the companies that overlap with my set of skills either have their own offering or use a libre one. I will admit, this might be harder for other people (my skills hover around RTC heavily).

"Or when a friend shares a Google Photos album of their newborn's pictures?"

My friends range from "Too young to be using a 'boomer' service like Google Photos" to "Too old to be doing anything technical that isn't just texting photos via SMS," and most of them in the 25-30 child-having age either also avoid Google or would just show the pictures in person. I don't live in the Valley, though, so this could be a regional thing.

"I guess you are a Google-avoider, so presumably you still have an actual Google account."

No, I don't. It never seemed necessary to me.
> Of course, Apple does sometimes introduce new requirements and new checkboxes - we plan to help surface those changes to teams.

People who got this far in the thread probably thought, "Yeah, but things like the Encryption Export Compliance checkbox, that's such a nuisance, Apple breaks your automation over stuff that is basically never material." Which is sort of the opposite of what's going on in the flows I saw on Runway's site.

Nevermind what your customers think. If there's a difference between having 100/100 zero intervention upload days, and 80/100, a clear metric, an obvious thing that is valuable - which checkboxes, really, do you think are material? You personally. Because personally, I find the vast majority of checkboxes to be immaterial. CYA and IDC are two sides of the same coin.
It doesn't invalidate the concerns, but it makes you question their motivations.
I have a CO2 monitor in my home office. 800-1100 ppm are pretty normal readings. If I open a window, I can get it down to ~400 ppm, but I don't notice any difference between the two.

I've heard that ~4000 ppm is noticeable and can impair, but it's impossible to get the level that high, even in a closed room with no ventilation.

As far as I can tell the only actual detail about the development history is the timeline... there's some specs but this is not a history article.
Little bit later to reply.

Unfortunately that doesn't mean much.

Since nodejs is a server side language and can handle that package too. And it's not "solely" for js/spa's.
That's what the Chinese government said, the students were promoting violence and hate in their property

See how that works?

Also Trump did not promoted hate or violence, he just stated what many people believe, the Democrats forged the 2020 election. And for that crime he will be banned from social media for at least 2 more years
Yet everyone wants to start commuting back to offices. It looks like 2020 didn’t even have a noticeable effect on the trend.
People talking like drilling a well in your backward is on par with typing in a different URL.

So how about this, the upfront cost and effort of typing in a different URL is at least a few orders of magnitude easier than drilling a well.

Yes, people can work on what they want and good for them, it helps build a healthy community.

What my point is more about the conversation for the larger community of what we want to prioritize and put in the effort to support. If we have the opportunity to influence where people gravitate to, which should it be? If companies want to come in and sponsor work, where would we, as a community, want that to go?

Also if gcc-rs "makes it", the cost will shift from that one or two developers to the whole community. We will need to test our projects against multiple versions of each frontend, our projects will need to advertize what they support, Rust will need to get compiler vendor and versions flags for us to conditionalize compilation to handle discrepancies and bugs, and crate authors will need to carry around these compiler conditionals.
It could be a natural monopoly if Google is able to use their user's click traffic to out-manuever SEO spam and their competition is unable to reach the necessary scale to obtain sufficient volume of user click traffic to compete with Google on quality.
> You have multiple choices for water, dig a well, buy it from the local grocery store.

This is a false equivalence. Comparing Google to a municipal water system and other search engines to purchasing bottled water eliminates certain key features of the service, like water conditioning and infrastructure. I use DuckDuckGo and it is no where near the inconvenience implied by "dig a well".
If this violates your a priori expectation of politicians' behavior, your prior was bad.
Birds and insects are able to swarm without telepathy, and the dynamics of this are fairly well understood. I don't think this is going to be such a big issue for drones; if anything, you'll get swarms of ultra-cheap tiny drones whose job is to swoop around chirping to each other until they get jammed, then take note of where the jamming signal seems to originate, GTFO, and convey that geographical information back to base at the earliest opportunity. The more enthusiastically you jam, the sooner you become the target of a ballistic mortar or guided missile that's fatally attracted to your jamming device.
Devs who would spend the 30 seconds adding the descriptive noscript text likely also pay attention to things like alt tags and semantic markup as well.
Well then go after them too. And most importantly, go after banks, payment processors and money/infrastructure people in general so they aren't allowed to kick people off just because they don't like someone.
very interesting, i'm going to try it out with a vue project soon
The land-based version of CIWS is called Centurion: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phalanx_CIWS#Centurion_C-RAM

C-RAM shells are supposed to self-destruct, but EOD guys will tell you that fuzes do not have a 100% operational rate. Another problem is cost and magazine size:

>The Block 1A and newer (pneumatic driven) CIWS mounts fire at a rate of 4,500 rounds per minute with a 1,550-round magazine.

>Shells fired by the Phalanx cost around $30 each and the gun typically fires 100 or more when engaging a target.[14]

So it's about three grand to zap one drone, and you get 15 shootdowns before a human needs to shovel more ammo into the turret. That would make it vulnerable to a saturation attack. A hundred drones carrying grenades that home in on the CIWS radar would be tough to counter.
That's not video hosting that's monopolyish, then, that's English-speaking-audience video discovery, which is a quite different proposition.
Why would they use a random app targeted for criminals? Sounds like the easiest way to get caught. Why wouldn't they just use PGP?
> There are two. On the level of rights and legality, there's non-agression principle. On the level of realpolitik, there's you being prepared to sink them first.

LOL. I'm pretty sure that even possessing anything close to the capability to sink a modern warship (let alone using it) will doom any seasteading fantasy through a concentrated application of unwanted attention.

Yes, and a part of this context is that Lone Star invokes images of the old state of Texas. When they lean into this, if they are not careful, they lean into some really awful events. It's not the same as the same pun on a bottle of Snapple.

https://youtu.be/jUQ2-C5ZNRc?t=683 Looks like the spec is at https://drafts.csswg.org/css-scoping-1/ with examples like https://drafts.csswg.org/css-scoping-1/#example-f1503361 and more details at https://css.oddbird.net/scope/

Still experimental of course, but could be very useful if implemented alongside Shadow DOM. Note this isn't 2012's scoped CSS: https://caniuse.com/style-scoped

If we get this the only thing I'll continue to dislike about Web Components would be the global namespace of web components and that Web components HTML attributes can't be rich objects or arrays natively. (I'd love it if web browsers simply implemented JSX, for example, or a syntax that looks like DOM but is actually a function call that can produce DOM. Bonus points if they also implement Markdown or MDX as an HTML element of some kind.)
Yeah, it's certainly unfortunate. It gets just a little worse with every single update. The last one removed compact mode, which was the only thing making the UI somewhat bearable on-screen. It is now terribly large and unappealing.

What do you use a search engine for? Depending on your set of interests, turning off or on localization might have helped.
Hi, looks like a great development for developers and users alike. But I am curious how you intend to make money from this. Or is this a not for profit initiative?
CO2 is very evenly distributed. I have a monitor in my house and I also get around 420ppm.
Right, nuking a small country would be pretty wasteful and politically expensive compared to a more usual tactic like propping up an oppressive regime who supports cheap export of natural resources, or in the case of a country with few resources, mostly ignoring them.
Given the last 10 years, one of those is not zero.
I will go further..let me be hypothetical.. in a closed and transparent system imho even income should not be taxed.. only spending.. if i earn 10bil and spend 0 why should I pay ? If i donate those 10b to my children and he spend 0 and grow it to 100b or leave it in bank.. all spending 0 .. what is the difference of taxation here ? We both died homeless and hungry... We are doing the equivalent of buyback\ reverse printing on dollars...decreasing liquidity ....Until i spend what is the problem ?.. btw this is not a closed and transparent system so taxing liquid assets is ok.. it's when I spend that I'm going to use or abuse the system or the ecosystem depending on what I'm buying . So let me pay 9000% taxes on a dodo steak and 1% on tofu burger this way with ethic taxing policies i would be also incentivated to spend better and improve the world ..
I don't know much about nim but I have seen my fair share of Rust and Zig code. Out of these 2, I'd personally pick Zig if I had to choose. Rust's syntax doesn't resonate with me very much and I feel like it tries to hand hold too much at times.

That said I am a programmer and as such I am more into what I can get done with these tools rather than the tools themselves. Whatever I feel can get the job done for whatever I need to do is okay with me. In Vinix's case, I can confirm from personal experience that V has been able to get the job done so far effortlessly.
Carbon capture technologies tend to cost more carbon to operate than they are able to actually sequester. Currently very much a pipe dream, especially considering that on a worldwide scale, the carbon equation is still overwhelmingly pushing in the worse direction (more carbon being burned, more forests being removed).
I agree, but there can be some exceptions. I got auto-rejected when applying for a law conversion course because of my A Level grades. I have a first class degree, a master’s degree with distinction and a phd.

A scam is by definition something with malicious intent, something dishonest, and I think that's why the other commenter took offense. It might not live up to the hype, and maybe it'll be lackluster, who knows - no one has played with it yet outside of Panic. But I think it's fair and not disingenuous that the other commenter took a lot of offense to using that word, because by all accounts it doesn't seem to be a scam. I would find a better word that doesn't imply malice.

Reputational damage is real damage, unless you are arguing that reputation isn't a thing which is patently false.

Careers and lives are made and lost on the back of reputation. Companies can be destroyed by the social media mob.

"Everyone should just ignore them" is not a reasonable argument. Even if there were no actual consequences, fear of consequences or fear of others' fear of consequences... is enough. It's a coordination problem.
> Initially the goal was that this system would manage all memory for the programmer automatically, this goal has since moved to "manage 90% of objects in memory and use GC for the rest". I suspect we will see that number continue to drop as the author realizes this is intractable without whole program analysis (which they can't do and still hit their compilation time targets).

Can you list items that don't work at all or are in alpha state?

Generics missing some advanced features like protocols doesn't mean they don't work.

> and that their children then have access to that non-profit and all of its assets, again without income or estate tax

That shouldn't matter as long as they don't start to enjoy the benefit of those assets.

This means tax rules should separate the estate as a business/investment from the personal use of the funds/wealth.

Sure, at some point it becomes neigh impossible, like let's say Bill and Melinda went to Africa on their marriage anniversary, was that business or personal? (And yes, at that level of wealth, influence, income it's always both.)

When an owner (or close relative or friend of an owner) of a family trusts/foundations/estates/NGOs/church/non-profit conducts business through said entity, that entity should pay some tax corresponding to said expense as if some part of that expense were income to the owner/relative/friend.
I am going to be sending email long after those tools are gone, and for the time being, the only option for securing that I have is PGP.

This does not mean I think PGP is great, it just means it is working now, across many MUAs.

Completely agree.

This whole discussion feels silly after a day building things with Tailwind. The system, defaults, docs and tooling are excellent.

And dev speed is ludicrous.
I don't think Mars After Midnight is going to be "like" Obra Dinn. Pope's said himself he wants to work on something much smaller in scope, and given the whimsy of what he has so far I don't see it growing into something like Obra Dinn.

As somebody who wants no sequel more than Obra Dinn 2, I don't think this is it. I always look forward to seeing Pope's work, though, and I hope he's working on something that he enjoys.
I think it's less about being pure or functional, but more about being "ergonomic". I abhored class-based components from day 1, but on hooks everything just clicked.
Hard to become the megacapitalist most libertarians want to be (and assume they'd be) selling just your labor. There's only so much of you to go around, much better to be the capital class and push around ideas and people to make money.

There were a number of big public policy successes in the 70s/80s/90s around smoking, lead pollution, and ozone destruction. And having seen that, megacorps have been refining their playbooks to make sure that it never, ever happens again.
I disagree with nearly all of your advice and tips. And I'd be very surprised if they reflected actual scientific findings in linguistics.

The least objectionable is the "don't translate" tip but even there I think you've gotten it wrong - translating isn't the issue - avoiding the trap of getting bogged down in trying to translate _precisely_ or being a perfectionist. But you definitely have to maintain some understanding of the context in order to get any value from subsequent exposure.

I fully disagree that you can acquire language just by osmosis - that it's enough to just listen to a language for hundreds of hours. Do you really think that if I isolated myself with hundreds of hours of say Mandarin audio recordings, TV shows and newspapers and novels and spent 40 hours a week listening to the recordings or staring at written text, that in a few months I would acquire the language? I mean if this actually worked, learning second languages wouldn't even be seen as a challenge or task.

It takes thousands of hours of active "work" with a second language to acquire it (although the data is patchy), not hundreds of hours of passive "experiencing".

And avoiding speaking is terrible advice. It's been shown to provide a huge boost to language acquisition. I know people who can read and comprehend the spoken form of a second language at a reasonably high level (C2) but can barely speak it. Speaking will not just "happen" if you don't actively practice it.

If you honestly did manage to acquire fluent Spanish purely by just passively "experiencing" the language, then I'm guessing your first language is closely related one - one of the romance languages.
How does this compare to Elder.js[1] which released a little while ago? You seem to have similar goals - mostly static site with small amounts of interactivity, minimum JS to achieve that - but Astro supports multiple frameworks, while Elder.js is restricted to Svelte. Are there any other big differences?

Wells dug with modern equipment are a perfectly good alternative to municipal water - they can free one from over-regulated or poorly managed utilities. Even in the outskirts of California metros it's sometimes the only option without shelling out hundreds of thousands for extensions.

DuckDuckGo, on the other hand, is just Google with bangs, an insignificant spec compared to the latter.

Edit: DuckDuckGo US market share: 2.5% [1], US population getting their water from a well: 13% [2]

Very customizable. Looks a bit Android-y for an iOS app, but its looks fit the HN community.

Before I used Octal, which was great for browsing HN but was very slow to load comments. Also when typing comments, you had to scroll up to reach the “post comment” button and if you scrolled up 1 pixel too far it would interpret it as “dismiss the comment sheet” and throw away your comment text without warning. And posting a comment could take more than a minute.
