I expect the anti-cheats to require an unmodified SteamOS.

Though the FAQ says the following, so it might not be quite as bad as I feared:

> We recommend using user-space anti-cheat components for best results, as they can typically run in the Wine environment and provide the same level of functionality. Kernel-space solutions are not currently supported and are not recommended.
I'm curious if they have this running wayland or X? I know KDE supports both nowadays.

As far as I can tell, this approach works very well. Better than the standard procurement process and better than the processes many private companies use.
> is not themselves a user of Github

Is it that widely scoped? Can't we narrow it to "A third party who finds their GPL code on Github but has not uploaded that specific code to Github themselves has a right of action limited to that specific code."

Just because I created a github account once and agreed to the TOS doesn't mean that I agree to let others upload my code to github, where would that scope end. Could someone steal code off my computer which i've never published and put it on Github and that was OK because I once signed up for a github account, clearly a contrived example but.

I assume this proposal is at least somewhat tongue in cheek based on the title, but if the US really wanted to nip this in the bud could they not instead make it a crime punishable by jail to pay the ransom?
It is not legal for the dealer but for the user it is semi legal. At least here in the south you only get arrested if you deal. With whatever drug. I never mentioned you could deal it or that it was legal. But you can get harddrugs in any bar here and the guardia knows it. If you start dealing larger amount you have an issue but that is not what I said...

Andalusia: it is really common and the guardia only arrests when there are dealers. Spain is big so I apologize for being too broad.

Where are you from because I did not see a difference in Madrid or Barcelona : it is illegal to have or deal but use is tolerated? You do not have this impression? I am definitely not talking about dealing. While I think every country should as it will kill the money incentive.
The proper comparison is whether their competitors like ULA can match them or not.

After I asked yes. It was given in-person not formally in writing.
It depends on a lot of things. If the root cause for the failure was poor factory soldering, a new board will likely fail in the same way after similar use where as a field repair may solve the issue.

There are plenty of other root causes where many components were overstressed and replacing them all with a new board would result in less downtime than replacing components as they fail, too. Of course, sometimes you can do well with replace this group of components anytime any one of them fails.

Also, availability of full boards and availability of individual components makea a difference.
Actually I think one thing that might happen is ad spenders will realize they have been massively fleeced.

I guess ads will continue to work about as well as before and then ad buyers will realize they can buy ads directly instead.
1/(2^{\aleph_0}) isn’t something that has a clear meaning.

2^{\aleph_0} is a cardinal number, which isn’t really a number in the sense of “an element of a field” or something like that. Dividing by it isn’t a well defined thing.

And, you certainly can’t just multiply any real number (or, any real number between 0 and 1) by 2^{\aleph_0} and get a different integer as a result.

(Now, if you work in the surreal numbers, you can define things like n/(2^{\aleph_0}) (identifying cardinals with the first ordinal of that cardinality), but these would not be real numbers. They would all be infinitesimal , smaller than 1/k for all positive integers k, and yet bigger than 0.
Similarly in the surreal numbers, you could multiply real numbers between 0 and 1 by 2^{\aleph_0}, but you would get surreal numbers which are larger than every integer (in fact, larger than any countable ordinal))

Summary: What you wrote doesn’t define a mapping from the integers to the real numbers . (It can be interpreted as defining a map from integers to something else though.)
> Too often, web tiers are full of boilerplate that does nothing except convert a result set into JSON.

Yeah. This is the problem: we've abandoned the hypermedia architecture of the web for a dumb-data, RPC model. I suppose if you are going to go that direction and things are simple enough, you can jam it in the DB and get smoking perf.

But as things get more complicated, where does the business logic live? Maybe in the database as stored procedures? It's less crazy than it sounds.

An alternative is to cut out the other middle man: JSON, ditch heavy front-end javascript and return HTML instead, going back to the hypermedia approach. The big problem with that is a step back in UX functionality, but there are tools[1][2][3] for addressing that.

I'm absolutely in the market for this. I'm fixing to move six time zones from my friends, who all play. Instead of buying a gaming laptop to take with me I'd just buy this if it's let me play with the easily.
Would it then be preferable for the manager to be more direct and assertive and state "In order to continue being employed here, you will need you to work overtime."

To me there needs to be a differentiation between communication style, and consequence. If it is the case that your job is at risk unless you work late nights, is it preferable to be direct about it, use assertive language, or is it preferable to use NVC, and express ones feelings and other details that form some sense of empathy?
Because said telemetry would be based on an assumption. Said assumption is at the very heart of what we consider morality.
I don't think people are going to install Windows on this, it's unsuited to this kind of tiny screen.
No, what the article is talking about is the question whether or not the cardinality of real numbers is the smallest uncountable infinity or some other, larger uncountable infinity. The only countable infinity is aleph-0, the cardinality of natural numbers, and Cantor showed that aleph-0 is too small to hold all reals. So reals must be uncountable, but there is an infinite hierarchy of uncountable infinities, and it is not known which one is the cardinality of reals (although in practice it's suspected to be either aleph-1, which is what the Continuum Hypothesis states, or aleph-2).
California approves first state-funded guaranteed income plan
That 100k number is probably some combination of his time, some investment into server/hosting resources and some money spent on a contractor for development. The 100k cost number seems entirely reasonable, I'm just worried we're missing a part of the story where he asked Delta to pay him X for it and perhaps X was an entirely unreasonable number.
Wow, if I had known just how popular a feature this would be I would have done it already! It's going to the top of the list now. And yeah I think the planning process does have an educational element to it, and the way you can quickly experiment with different ideas can help to discover and quantify trade-offs. I'm sure the prefilled template/scenario options would enhance that educational aspect further.
Maybe not as an experience, but it seems worthy of that as a story.
For me College was High School but more. The big thing that killed me in college was multiple professor assigning a big collaborative out-of-class project each semester seemingly on the assumption that none of my other professors would do something like that. So I'm trying to coordinate three different big projects with three different sets of students and keeping them all straight, while also trying to learn the underlying concepts. Oh and there is regular homework on top of that.

In the real world I'm generally only working one project at a time with only one group of people. And crucially we can fire people from the project who don't contribute.
Love it! Fantastic idea.

I am checking out some of the projects now.

Is there still an opportunity to get paid back, rather than keeping it in the system?

I love the idea of the loan continuing through the system for myself (I don't personally need the payback), but I'd imagine there would be some funders / loaners that would like the original system of getting paid back. Is that still a possibility?

I am sending this to a few friends that are really excited about African entrepreneurship (myself included). Great idea!
I don't know if it's really that straightforward.

It gets worse. To the extent that it is that straightforward, the correct takeaway is that you do not have permission to include someone else's GPLed code in your Github repository.

And that to the extent that GitHub relies on that permission in using the code that they host, they are liable for potential copyright claims from copyright owners that they have no relationship with, who never gave GitHub permission to use that code.

I therefore think that GitHub should do some careful thinking about how much they can rely on a ToS to do as they want with the copyleft code that they host. And I further think that people who host GPLed projects should ask whether GitHub is where they should be hosting those projects.

> I guess the question becomes “what percentage of current PC gamers are motivated to shell out $400 to play on the train?”

Does it even matter? For consumers, they get what they paid for even if Valve shows zero commitment as long as Steam does not actively shut them out. For game companies, support for controller and Linux/Proton is valuable with or without Steam Deck.

And for Valve itself, all the software investment is a long term hedge against the existential threat of Windows failing them, this is just an opportunistic bonus use. The only actual cost is the hardware side of the project. If it tanks in the market they'll simply refrain from doing a v2 and do damage control with long tail sales of v1. While taking comfort in knowing that the Deck hardware will at least have lured a few game companies into the arms of Proton, strengthening their Windows hedge.
> "Freelancing does too, without necessarily offering more control."

Sometimes the only "capital" freelancing requires is your knowledge and expertise/wisdom in a particular skillset. I'll agree with "without necessarily" offering more control, but at least in my own personal experiences with freelancing (in IT/computer related work), it offered me a great deal of control, in that if I didn't feel like taking a contract, I simply didn't. It wasn't as if I didn't have other contracts available to fill that void. :)

If we are talking about upgrading means a complete reimage, Valve probably doesn't push every minor upgrade, but bundles them together. Like what Manjaroo is doing.
I would never trust a service like this, but at the same time, I'm curious on how to setup the opposite of their motto: "compete with professional algorithmic traders and hedge funds. coding required!".

Does Fidelity offer an API of some sort so that I can login with my normal credentials and buy/sell? I'm assuming the strategies being used here, like "Ride the Trend", are basically the same ones available here: https://github.com/enzoampil/fastquant

So, given that the previous statements are true, do I just need some Yahoo! Finance API + FastQuant and then MyBank API to autotrade for myself? What else would be involved?
Aptitude is mostly a front-end to apt-get, but if you try to install some impossible combination of packages or get your packages in a weird state, aptitude offers solutions to fix it.

This is by far the most effective solution to the problem. The foreign corrupt practices act [1] was highly effective at stopping US businesses from paying bribes in foreign countries, with many other developed nations following suit with similar laws. Such a law for ransomware would no doubt also be effective. Companies pay lawyers specifically to audit their processes around FCPA compliance because the penalties are so severe. No executive wants to go to prison because a salesperson hires some “consultant” in Thailand to win a deal…

I have successfully gotten those clauses removed when joining a new employer.

Pro tip: state that expectation at the beginning of the hiring process. It's part of the negotiation along with salary, working hours, etc. Don't wait until after they send you the contract.

Their contract probably already has a clause for employees in California, so you can state expectations pretty easily with something like "btw, I'm not willing to sign an invention assignment clause that would violate California's labor code".
That’s… way closer to consumer than I expected
Depends on person, the game mechanics and the hardware. Oculus Quest 2 is very nice HW for its price. Shame you are locked in with a mandatory FB account.
2.2TB data
Yeah this will be an interesting test. They're eliminating all of the variables but one (which game is running). No more "works on my machine" protondb reports! It either works on Steam Deck or it doesn't. Excited to see what they can do with that power.
Please continue. Explain how those beliefs intersect with moral value.
I'd argue the Steam controller was kinda bad. But more in concept than execution. The touch pads were just not a good replacement for a thumbstick or a D-pad

But I agree with what you're saying. If this thing is actually good, it could have some real mainstream appeal.
Ask HN: Have MVP, What Next?
Hello dear community,

I have been working single-mindedly on my first MVP since last fall. I am so glad that I am now just a couple of weeks away from finishing it. My app runs on the desktop and helps users doing data science.

I can't multi-task easily so this has been my main focus for nearly a year. Now however I realize I need to spend another couple of months to iron out the next step. I am getting worried now because I have no idea what that is.

My main goal is to put the whole thing on automatic meaning let it grow on the side, give it until the end of the year and if it is successful by then, doing it full time. Otherwise, I will just move on.

So, my big question, what do I do next and are there low cost sites that can do it for me?
And what this reinforces to me is the importance of "professionalism" in a work place setting.

Requiring everyone in your workplace to engage coworkers with a level of emotional intimacy and care can impose even greater burdens on your employees. Sometimes it can be better to just try to impose fair rules on everyone, and straight forwardly convey to everyone where they stand in terms of expectations and performance.

Blame free retrospectives are also crucial in cases where things don't go well.

Instead of:

"You make me feel X way when you didn't close out your tickets."

Try:

"I generally hate asking anyone to work extra hours, but in this case if the ticket doesn't get fixed we are likely to lose the contract we are depending on to pay everyone's salary. Can you please stay late and get this done? We can work out a way to give you some extra PTO to make up for this in the near future."
RemNote: Roam and Anki, note taking with spaced repetition

So far the main two problems are WYSIWIG and lack of obvious ways to import and export data.

Yes, that's true. A minimal runtime can be quite small by modern standards (~20mb) but it's not free indeed. Only C or C++ can be "dependency free" in this regard because it's the only languages where operating system vendors are guaranteed to ship the standard library with the OS. All others have to bundle.
I liked your struggle with the corner-case :)
That's throughput.

IOPS is important.

For random 4kb blocks / second

SD Card => 2.1 [1]

SSD => ~200 [2]

[1] https://www.cameramemoryspeed.com/reviews/micro-sd-cards/

[2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IOPS

And that's comparing good SD cards to good SSDs.

As I was saying, bad SD cards can be REALLY bad. The difference can be over 1000x. Anything that depends on being able to read ANY small piece of information regularly in a reasonable amount of time from disk would simply not be playable.

That would cause anti-monopoly intervention by the government.

> This is comparable to what's happening, but instead of one company it's multiple companies and instead of food price it's employee conditions

What employee condition? Facebook employees who leak these emails are quite rich, perhaps top 1% in the US let alone in the world. Their are unhappy because they want more than money, they also want to "do greater good" as they erroneously view it.

> The only thing I do know for sure is that what we have now isn't working

It does not work perfectly, but it works relatively well. The US is one of the richest countries in the world. Poorest 10-percentile US citizen is way more rich than average person living in a third-world country.

> if capitalists don't want socialism/communism to take over they better fix things soon

I think capitalism is doing fine. The largest problem in the US (I'm not in the US) is partly corrupt election system. E. g. representatives being too dependent on the party because of certain restrictions like limits of how much money a candidate can raise for a campaign. Or lack of ranked choice voting.
I was intrigued by the "Test Rule Performance on Historical Data" feature on the home page. I thought signing up would let me play with the performance of your sample rules but I can't seem to figure that out. Is that possible?

Also, that home page block could be more informative. It shows me a dollar value but not what asset it was actually applied to.
Saying something like "I feel that statement is rude" goes against the entire point of "I" statements. You are supposed to connect a specific action of theirs with the emotional reaction it caused in you. "Feeling a statement is rude" isn't you expressing an emotion or feeling, its you expressing an opinion.

A more valid way phrase it would "When you say $statement, it makes me feel $emotion/feeling", where x is an actual emotion or feeling, like angry/upset/disappointed/disrespected/worthless/don't care about me/etc.
But that's not true, the idea that a company will go out of business if one person doesn't work overnight is simply and factually false.

The business desires that a person to work overtime to reduce costs, avoid hiring additional staff, etc... not because it's an existential threat.

Nothing rare about most of these features as they came from Squeak. What's really rare is how slimy they're being in at least implying most of these features are unique to Pharo in their marketing of it. There is not a single mention of Squeak or Smalltalk, which their project is derived from[1], on the page. It's unfortunate as they have put a lot of effort in expanding on the previous work and created a nice UI to make the environment more productive and accessible which they can legitimately take credit for.

[1] I don't mean 'inspired by', they literally started off with a fork of the code of both the VM and image. This is perfectly legit per the license, but it's hardly a completely original work.
On the landing page they say "You can connect to peripherals, throw the picture onto a big screen, and do all the other PC things you'd expect."

On the hardware page they show it docked and running a normal desktop interface and say "Use your Deck as a PC. Because it is one" and "You can also install and use PC software, of course. Browse the web, watch streaming video, do your normal productivity stuff, install some other game stores, whatever."

On the spec page, it says the OS is SteamOS 3.0 (Arch-based) and Desktop is KDE Plasma.

I guess I'm just not understanding where you'd even get the impression that it would be locked into a Steam account.
