I still don't understand why you would call Champagne something that does not come from Champagne, can't you just call it New South Wales or Napa Valley or wherever you are making it?

How is it not misleading to call it by the name of a place that it does not come from?
Exactly. Media as well. They are everywhere (which is not a problem) and always keep Chinese interest above everything wherever they go (which is the problem).
Cost is high because there is no mass production. Every new nuclear plant starts from scratch. France built almost all their nuclear power plants in one decade with tech from the seventies. They have 56 reactors.
There’s no reason we couldn’t do it again.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wood_drying

Wood for construction needs to reach an equilibrium moisture point with the outdoor air after its cut.

If its dried outside, it takes months to years to dry, depending on the humidity level and temperature.

The wood is dried because it makes it lighter, and the shrinkage and swelling has already played out during the drying process... instead of when its in place!
Further in this point; even without the subjective warts, the composability of colors would leave a lot of confusion. Blue-green, or green-blue?
You’re wrong and confused on the Apple TV. There were is a home bar on tvOS, apps in this bar directly represent the ads you’ll see. If you highlight tv then you get ads for shows in that app. Likewise, highlighting the App Store shows ads for popular apps and services. You can remove any of these apps from that bar.
Crypto is the only way I can pay for VPN without disclosing my identity. Also it's the only way I can move money abroad without getting a special permission from my country's central bank (except physically flying with max $10k cash). Ah, and also there is a war in my country that may escalate any time, but thanks to cryptocurrencies I can run away with empty pockets and still access my money from anywhere in the world.
There used to be a hardware switch for WiFi on laptops not long ago. But being "always connected" took precedence over privacy. Same can be said with microphone and voice assistants.
Yes, wood that is used to build something before it has been dried will warp and curl.
Parent was talking about side loading without store, not that Android Apps work on Windows.
So it shouldn't be anything special to install whatever file format you want on Windows regardless the source.
You don't get caramelized onions in ten minutes, either.
Because the title of the article is literally "Why do recipe writers lie..."

Don't you think that perhaps the person making the claim should have their facts straight?
I will make a guess that majority of HN readers are outside the US of A.
The part about END, JSON, EQL, GraphQL is a bit of a strawman. EDN and EQL are specific to Clojure, JSON and GraphQL can be used with pretty much anything. Of course if you're writing a data notation and a query language specifically for a language it will be better for that language, at least I hope so.

For the part about "having a few data structure", doesn't that means that you lose all type safety? If you have an Order type and a PaidOrder type, the compiler can enforce that you won't use an Order that hasn't been paid in places you shouldn't.

This part is not about this article specifically but about the way people talk about Clojure in general. Most of the time Clojure users compare Clojure to Java, which in a way is fair since Clojure leverages the JVM, but on the other hand Java isn't known for simplicity (part of it may be due to design, part of it is due to being older). Some tradeoffs are presented as strict wins (see above the part about type safety vs a few collections). Most people mention being skeptic at first with Clojure, and now being in love with it. Shouldn't that mean that they should keep looking for new things since they were trapped in some kind of local maximum before?
I'd recommend Kurose's Computer Networking: A Top Down Approach (now in 8th edition) book if you want to learn a proper computer networks concepts because this is the definitive textbook.

If you want the practical aspects of computer networks, you can try Niall Manfields' Practical TCP/IP designing, using and troubleshooting TCP/IP networks on Linux and Windows book. Granted it's a bit old (2nd edition is essentially the same 1st edition), but because you are after the essentials it should be more than fine. Here's the review of the book:

OpenPOWER is extremely expensive though. There is no universe in which I would pay several times the price for a high-powered x86 gaming PC/workstation just to have an open-source CPU and hardware like Talos. It has to be both open and affordable.
You can build out of green lumber. But, as wood dries it will twist, warp, and crack. If you happen to live somewhere humid building with green wood is an invitation for fungal rot. For both durability and square building it is better to dry the wood first.
Near, the emulator developer of bsnes, higan, and more, has died
So is the weather the same year after year? does that impact it - can we say, tell producers that the weather varied from the day we established the standard so that it can't be called that this year?
>when Google spot it, they can unilaterally remove it.

Microsoft can achieve the same goal already through Windows Defender. My app was recently flagged as a trojan (false positive) and it would be wiped from users' computers before they could even run it.

>they also have the ability to remove it from devices where it was already installed.

That Microsoft can't do, but I'm not really sure that it's a good thing...

>The app store model probably also delivers security updates to legitimate apps more effectively than every developer managing their own distribution.

Citation needed there.
Thanks for the suggestions, I think I will get some very good use out of these. For real reduction of anxiety you might be interested in reading about Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), which I think would fit well with the resources you mentioned. It’s an evidence-based therapy with a focus on mindfulness and meditation. A big part of what it taught me is how to unconditionally accept my unpleasant emotions which paradoxically leads to experiencing less of them. That’s easier said than done of course but ACT gives exercises and concrete advice for how to get there. The book I liked is called A Liberated Mind, a self-help book by the creator of ACT, Steven Hayes.
The exact same argument can be made for nike shoes.
Supply and demand. If you decrease the supply, the small existing demand will pay more.
Having downloaded a ton of Windows crapware back in the day... I spent most of my life programming and still wish I didn't ever have to say "Yes, I trust this unidentified developer".
Interesting. Thank you. I always assumed they were 180° out of phase.
Costs aren't static though, have we reached the limits of how much we can improve on nuclear tech? If we were having this discussion a couple of decades ago, this reasoning would lead you to believe solar and wind have insurmountable costs compared to nuclear.
The article mentions they'll have to get creative when inflation makes the dollar worthless, or do a little rebranding.

Motel 6 did the same thing. I remember when the 6 meant six bucks a night. It was a great place to catch some Zs when on a road trip.

My dad said the "Nickle Bar" candy bar's size grew and shrank with the cost of chocolate.

DRM such as Secure Boot wasn't viable in those times, nor was interconnectivity expected. This round could be very different if they wanted it to.
If you put it to the test you would be very hard pressed to find and identifiable difference, just like wine experts can't tell a 5$ wine from a 500$ wine
You can't capture the nuance of my form fields
It really doesn't have to be. For instance, in Julia IDEs \omega would complete to ω, which takes 2 extra characters to enter (\ and tab). Its not hard to imagine this concept, but applied at the OS level...
As someone who has worked on user-facing software, the part which bothers me the most is the reversal of user settings. MS is really bad about this, and even broke a linux install on a separate partition on my machine by changing the UEFI settings after an update without asking me. If I shipped software which did this, I would feel like I had to turn in my developer card.
And if you really want to make a container image for any reason, you can still have systemd use that directly as a Portable Service instead of through Docker.
That is literally what Champagne is: the name of a place in France.

The amazing part of this is that each individual core makes contact with each region of the (obviously stationary) memory drum once per revolution, providing dynamic cache adjacency.
Also, rapacious greed.
“I don’t think it’s an insurmountable problem to create an ECC code where Ecc(a+b)=Ecc(a)+Ecc(b)”

It wouldn’t, but that ECC wouldn’t work for multiplication instructions, square roots, etc. Dropping floating point and multiplication instructions will correct that, at the cost of significant speed.

I also think any such ECC effectively would be a copy of computing a+b modulo some constant you can pick.

If so, we’re effectively back at “compute the result twice, trap if the two results aren’t identical”
LOL…do you even know who created Hamas and why? Please take a look at this WSJ article on the history: https://www.wsj.com/articles/SB123275572295011847

The gist is Israel never wanted to have two-state solution. When PLO agreed to this solution, Israel wanted bolster instability among Palestinians, and that’s why Hamas is here. It’s basically serving Israeli purpose.
> It doesn't matter if it impacts them or not. It's a violation of the social privacy standards that have existed for centuries.

I have no idea where you're getting this from. Governments regularly perform national census, and collect data from all kinds of institutions to inform their policy. Banks constantly analyze your bank accounts and activity. Utilities meter your use for both billing and their own planning.

This is not someone "looking in the window" this is two parties (you and the company providing some service or product to you) needing to exchange data so each can do their work properly.

Those "privacy standards" you cite that have existed for centuries... that's not a thing. It seems to be based on falsifying the history and present of how humans organize and govern systems out of ignorance. Data gathering IS the "normal". Of course it's been very limited and cumbersome before, now it's easier thanks to IT.

So if your only argument is a vague discomfort from this not being "normal"... you have no argument.

Just based on the summary, it is an interesting book. Learning is involved even in perception.
Beef made outside of England can be called beef, but not English beef, which is the point of protected geographical indications (although this case doesn't need PGI, it's already protected under other laws regarding the indications of the origin of products).
I understand but the article is clearly written with the US in mind. In that sense, adding a few more letters, for context, would've been appreciated.
They will never do this in areas where that would threaten their vendor lock-in.
You are right about companies looking for rent seeking. Rent seeking is a global trend unfortunately, and I'm pretty sure this trend will end bad for us.
If an employee of Nike, at whatever level, leaves the company to make their own shoes, they can no longer use the Nike trademark to market them.
I’m glad to hear runit works fine for them.

I’m not so sure there isn’t any room for improvement though. In the related s6 project there is lot of discussions about adding new features that are beneficial for supporting a modern Linux distro.
> It's like arguing Bugatti buyers aren't the majority of Volkswagen Auto Group's customers: it's true but what difference does that make?

Actually, you raise a good point of discussion: But I'll argue that UK residential ISPs touting their highest-tiers as "proof" they're being competitive, even though only a tiny minority of punters shell out for it, as being self-serving and ultimately against the national interest.

With Bugatti: people are buying an asset. You're paying for the quality of the engineering workmanship that goes into the final product - but once you've given your $1-3m over to Herbert Diess you're no-longer an ongoing concern to them, beyond the dealer's servicing fees - and your investment in a single vehicle means little to the road and highways infrastructure where you live - even if your jurisdiction implements vehicle-value-based property tax and road-usage-tax it won't mean much at the end-of-the-day - but with residential broadband it's something else...
In my experience the nvidia drivers have been getting much better recently.

Proton's not perfect, but it's been mostly worth it for me not to have to boot windows.
I completely understand your concerns, however I have a few points that might change your thoughts on this:

- Almost all competitive games nowadays have a powerful client side anticheat which is constantly monitoring processes on a kernel level to combat kernel cheats. They use a lot of the same functionalities that Echo does, such as protecting memory. What makes our trusted company different from another trusted company such as Epic Games and their "easy anti-cheat"? The only difference is we're doing these checks using a scanner interface, with absolutely no extra functionality which could be used maliciously by the staff member.

When you install Valorant, using this logic, they are "essentially installing rootkits". But they're not rootkits, since it's authorized and an automatic process.

- Once the 30 second scan has completed, there is absolutely nothing left on the computer whatsoever. Echo is a single binary, on launch it extracts the .sys kernel driver, creates a service. It then uses that kernel driver throughout the scan. Then on exit, it deletes the service, deletes the .sys and all that is left is the original binary you downloaded. It leaves absolutely nothing left behind, and it does this automatically. With client side anti-cheats which large game companies use, they often require it to be launched on start-up (it may say "you need to restart your computer before playing), this has even more malicious potential.

- Everything has malicious potential as soon as you click "Yes" on the UAC menu, trust in the companies is a huge huge part of keeping yourself safe. What if Facebook shares all your personal data randomly? They won't. What if Valorant starts doing malicious stuff with their kernel capabilities? They won't, and neither will we.

A computer forensic analysis of memory to look for cheats after they've been deleted is not as effective as a client side anti-cheat would be, however for Minecraft it's much easier because it's difficult to make cheats for it without leaving traces behind. But, it's the same level as risk being asked to use a client side anti-cheat to play on a server than being asked to scan with Echo if the server side anti-cheats show indications.
There exists a repository named Cydia for iOS with no ties to Apple, therefore iOS is an open system?
Google moves essential parts of Android to the proprietary Google services and can easily enforce restrictions for smartphone manufacturers, so 3rd party stores depend on Googles benevolence.
Yes, I can confirm that lumber prices in Canada went sky-high.
> Why do we still have to name variables OmegaZero when our computers now know how to render 0x03a9+0x2080 properly?

Majority of developers are not from Greece; they don’t have the keys on their keyboard. Technically, modern C# supports Unicode just fine, here’s an example.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;

static class Program
{
static double Σ( this IEnumerable<double> elements ) =>
elements.Sum();

static void Main( string[] args )
{
double[] α = new double[ 3 ] { 1, 2, 3 };
Console.WriteLine( α.Σ() );
}
}

> Why not make color part of the syntax?

Similar reason, because input becomes more complicated. You gonna need to either memorize hotkeys, or reach for the mouse. Also copy-pasting UX becomes way too complicated.
From the article, 2015 numbers:

26.26% Europe

So no, “most Israelis“ don’t come from Arab countries.
So powerful. I feel when many try doing this a lot reach for custom code instead of leaning established technology.

Building on wine just for games is an excellent thing too.

Kiwi Farms is the scum of the earth. Sadly it has many victims.
It's not vitriol, it's an objective observation that this website is by and for a specific audience. Perhaps my phrasing is pithy, but that is on purpose.
For computer languages tho, definitely agreed there is an objective best when averaging over all the things we try to do with them. And it is very surprising how much commonality and uniformity there is across that space

I feel we can say imperative/functional languages are almost identical to each other when compared against the design space that assembly allows -- computed goto, jumpfrom, jumpwhen, so many options, and yet 99% of everything is if/then/switch

Does this mean programming languages are evolving into a meta description of some underlying 'thought-process' innate to God, or the-thing-that-causes-physics?
- Which, for those curious, is the the whole idea behind greenwood carpentry.

Its a shame more of that craft isn't going around. Granted, I'm not sure how a greenwood porch would work.
YouTube will eventually ruin shorts with advertising. I can't use regular YouTube now that they have eliminated the "Skip Ads" button in many cases, and also resorted to injecting ads in the middle of a video.
I live in Detroit, and when the "bikes win" they act like assholes. There is a weekly event called slowroll where herds of bikes go down a different route each week in the early evening. When they've rolled past the street I live on I find that for sometimes up to two hours you can't drive your car into or out of the place that I live.
They also don't support wheelchairs, which in the United States would tend to violate the ADA.
From what I recall from looking at Unison not long ago, the hashes do not depend on names. `f x = x * x` and `g y = y * y` both have the exact same hash and are considered to be the exact same function. Any call to `f` or `g` will be stored as a call to their hash, so `f2 x = f (x + 1)` and `g2 x = g (x + 1)` would also have identical hashes.

This does appear to pose a small issue for types, since isomorphic types are identical regardless of their names, but I believe they have a way to attach a unique id to enforce a distinction.
I would have assumed the crap they meant the sad looking meats and cheeses in the refrigerators.

Dollar Stores are hit and miss. I needed some emergency earbuds for a trip. Wow, I didn't know you could manufacture earbuds that sounded that bad, even at the $1 price point. I am by no means an audiophile either.
My understanding is that governments consider nuclear disasters as eventualities - reducible but not truly preventable, and in the event of a disaster you have to create a functionally permanent exclusion zone.
> Yes, the concerns raised about resigning apps and sideloading capability is not something the average Windows user will care about.

It's not something they'll understand the significance of. That doesn't mean it isn't important.

>Android apps are also inferior to Windows apps, so the real question is: Who is going to use Android apps on Windows.

Many people who use their phones for a lot of the time and want a similar/identical experience on their laptop.

>Android app developers seem to be the target group.

I disagree. It's for people who want snapchat or signal or whatever on their devices. Android developers already have emulators or test devices.
If you take sandpaper to a part turning on the lathe and make the mistake of closing your hand around it, you can lose your arm. On a drill press a chip can reach out and grab your clothes and pull you in. Heavy parts can come loose and fly through the air. Hardened tools can break and send shrapnel flying like bullets. A hand's width of unspported stickout of a long bar from the back of lathe's spindle bore can turn into a meat tenderizer, spinning too fast for the eye to see. The last thing you heard before hopefully waking up in the hospital was the sound of a helicopter...

It's the gotchas that get you. You can do it safely and people do all the time. But mistakes happen, and then you better be lucky or good.
I think the future for 90% of applications is really just to have progressive web apps. We're not quite there yet, but with WASM and WebGPU we're getting closer.
Ah, that makes it more clear.
There's also the fact that product-lifecycles have become incredibly short these days. Airlines took 68 years to get to 50M users, Mobile Phones 12 years, the Internet took 7 years, and Pokemon Go got there in 19 days[0].

We're at 12 years of Crypto and "a tech of the future" is now an increasingly difficult proposition to make as we're nowhere near real usecases.

> Frontier doesn’t offer slow DSL to rural areas because they’re rolling in cash from having no competitors.

They actually do. The reason they’re going bankrupt is because competitors have started showing up due to the Connect America Fund causing them to lose customers in droves.

Simultaneously they took funds themselves and didn’t bother using them to upgrade infrastructure.

Source: previous frontier customer who couldn’t leave fast enough. Also convinced every single neighbor to do the same, even the ones who thought it was “fine” and wanted to be “loyal”.
>On other distros, you often have to resort to global mutation in `/etc` that does not compose well.

Why does this "not compose well" ?

You don't have to override the whole unit as /etc/systemd/system/nginx.service , which would have problems if two things wanted to override different parts of the original unit. Just drop an override file in /etc/systemd/system/nginx.service.d/90-restart-always.conf with that one specific config you want to override.
I agree with that — not having buffer overflows is a good to have but not sufficient thing for security. MAC and sandboxes are a necessity as well, eg SELinux can solve your proposed problem with program A and B.
So all you have to do is look at where it where it was made on the label -- is that too difficult?
Yes! Kurose's book was the first book that i read about networking and it gave me a pretty good level of foundational knowledge, highly recommended.
IDK, my laptop still has a button to disable the radios, but it's on F8 and implemented in firmware (or software?) not hardware.

According to the author, Laurent Bercot, the code for s6 is much cleaner than the systemd code. For anyone curious I guess the best way to find out is to compare and make a judgment of one’s own.
Okay, people stay at home more, so they need more space, so there's demand for construction.

What about the spaces people used to occupy before covid moved them home? Does it drive demand for demolition?
