While you've described the ideal case, I don't think it's true that the ship has sailed on affordable housing.

At least in Australia, most of the increase in value comes from speculators and investors taking advantage of very generous tax concessions (negative gearing, capital gains tax reductions, reserve bank handing out low-interest loans to property investors).

Rental vacancy rates in Sydney and Melbourne have remained pretty much static over the past decade (excluding COVID), yet prices have soared by 60-70%.

You have convinced me of the opposite of what you are stating here. Wanting to know the details has nothing to do with ego. You just like to know the details so you can try to make a *comparison between options*. Details like W/h, delta E, size, sheets p/m, resolution, 2FA, software features etc are factual information that allows for a more rational buying decision.
People that cannot make any sense of this are going to rely on different mechanisms to make their choice.

Of course you can present your product in such an attractive way that I hope you will be the winner when I compare you against alternatives, but beware that I will judge it on different grounds.
So indeed, communicate details if you want to have a chance to be picked as the buying choice.

It's not about the water inside, it's about the plastic. I do the same as grandparent, refill disposable but sturdy bottles, I change every 6 month or so. I assume the plastic itself is shedding particles away more and more as it ages. There is a bad smell that develops after a few months. Probably from bacteria build up.

As someone who was brought up vegetarian but later ate meat occasionally, I personally prefer the taste and texture of Quorn pieces, mince and sausages. I’ve never tried the stuff that tries to more directly imitate meat though. More generally I find the rise of vegan foods that try to emulate the taste and texture of meat quite disappointing, but they’ve pushed good vegetarian food out of many menus.

> powers" that work "out of the box" hurts the ego of the nerd. This feeling of hurt is certainly an emotion, so I wouldn't say nerds are less emotional!

It has nothing to do with ego or hurt feelings. I agree it might be emotional, but it’s more akin to a self defense mechanism.

No details ~= person telling you what you can read on the tin. Why are you subjecting yourself to listening to bullshit from a professional bullshit artist?

A marketer is a professional story teller. You get tired of hearing stories without substance, regardless of being a nerd. It’s more likely correlated with being cynical (or an expert in the field).
I buy carbon offsets to try to blunt my impact but I'd also pay a premium for more sustainable milk (and more importantly cheese) that was harder to distinguish.

Carbon offsetting is a poor substitute for just not having a big carbon footprint to begin with. It's a sticking plaster at best, and incredibly hard to verify the impact of as an individual consumer.
Yeah, I didn't want to get stuck in details, but I'm setting up a couple of new mailservers (freshly registered domains, self-hosted VPS at cheap cloud providers (DO, Hetzner, OVH, AWS). And they do get delivered directly into Outlook, Google, Protonmail and other major providers after two days tops (some still employ greylisting for fresh IPs/domains).

There's no secret sauce but there is a myriad of ways to shoot yourself in the foot when setting up a mail server from scratch. E.g. many standard setups may try delivering email over IPv6 if available which currently is a terrible idea but might be completely opaque to the user. Obviously, the results will also depend on what is it that you're sending as everyone uses point-based (or even ML) systems nowadays and headers + contents can earn you either negative or positive points.
Show HN: List of the top 100 open startups (with revenue displayed)
> Beyond that though, I'm really interested in foods that could be created that don't mimic existing foods derived from animals or plants.

That's literally what processed food is. Nothing from a Twinkie to cheese (one of the oldest processed foods) resembles anything that comes from animals or plants.

Humanity has been doing this for all of recorded history.

Often the processing came of necessity: many of our culinary traditions are simply things that evolved such that we could preserve food pre-refrigeration. The problem is that we still don't seem to be very good at making healthy processed foods, and once you stray away from basic foods, there's strong market pressures to optimize for taste (and, let's be honest, borderline addictiveness) above nutrition.
Hi HN, Lamine from MakerLead here.

There are many websites with open startups data (startups that share their revenue and metrics), but I always had trouble getting a clear view on how well these startups were performing.

So I did the work. Now people can filter the data with the little input box on top of the table, and also sort through it (sort by name, revenue, description by clicking on the column name)

Tools:

The data is aggregated using NodeJS and I use ReactJS to display the data in a table form.

All the data points are stored within a Postgresql database

Source of the data:

The data is sourced from the website indiehackers where founders can plug their Stripe account directly.

Later I plan on adding visualizations, charts and more. And also diversifying the data sources.

This is the first version I put together and just launched. Your feedback is appreciated!

Cheers,
Lamine

no, Notcurses supports both Sixel and the Kitty protocol (indeed, i proposed https://github.com/kovidgoyal/kitty/issues/3809, which drastically cut down on the bandwidth necessary for certain operations), in addition to the Linux framebuffer console (where we use a direct mmap of the framebuffer). WezTerm recently added support for the Kitty protocol, and indeed Notcurses was used to validate that work: https://github.com/wez/wezterm/issues/986. i sat down to design the ultimate terminal graphics protocol, and it ended looking so much like Kitty's that i resolved to just advocate terminals pick up that one: https://nick-black.com/dankwiki/index.php?title=Spriteful_TE...

Marketing doesn't work well on nerds, or we would still be using mongodb.

MongoDB is an example of nerds resisting marketing from Oracle and going too heavily in the other direction. Nerds love non-mainstream stuff, so when you come with a solution and say "this is better than the mainstream!" they are prone to believe you. But then once mongodb became mainstream it died since then its selling point of not being mainstream was gone, and there wasn't many other reasons for using it, no matter how much marketing mongodb continued to crank out.
The comment you're replying to literally says the opposite thing.

Some top chefs do something approaching this - not quite at the molecular level in the way mentioned here, in a lab (although it's called molecular gastronomy), but nevertheless experimenting with different combinations and techniques. Artisanal experimentation vs industrial production.
It's not really fair to say that there's no chance of getting rid of cats in NZ, might be more accurate to say it's not something that will happen soon. As you point out, a good step would be to require cat registration, and in some areas that has very nearly become a reality in recent elections.

I'm not a conservation expert, but think it's safe to say that the answer to your question is a bit complicated. We have a national goal to be free of a list of predators including those by 2050 - it seems achievable, but only with a lot of work and political willpower. Stoats for instance can be killed with traps that cats can't get in to, so that's a useful tool in the more accessible areas where we still have pet cats to contend with. One of the more immediate issues in the big picture, is a small but vocal faction that's violently opposed to using a poison that is key in these efforts. To give some flavour, check out this recent and very well-done series: https://www.rnz.co.nz/programmes/fight-for-the-wild

IIRC you can get to high occupancy by doing enough rehashes. After that, if you do no more insertions and only lookups, it is a good deal since each lookup takes at most two memory accesses. So this is useful if you are willing to spend a long time building what will then be a read-only table. Obviously there are uses for that.
For most cars there isn’t much room to increase tire size but maybe you’re thinking of putting a lift kit on a civic, might be a bit hard to pass inspection.

Good. It's remarkable how much cheese is included in restaurant meals. If you want to avoid it then it narrows the choice substantially.

Show HN: RawStr Notes – The missing notebook for developers
Hi HN,

I built RawStr Notes(https://rawstr.com/) as a replacement for Google Keep, Apple Notes, Evernote, etc.. It's an executable notebook based on VSCode's Monaco editor where everything can be scripted.

1. My typical workflow is copying text out of $NOTE_TAKING_APP to VS Code(for Vim) and back. RawStr saves the roundtrip by integrating VSCode's Monaco editor in the browser.

2. I save a list of restaurants to try on $NOTE_TAKING_APP. However, I get major decision fatigue trying to pick one at random. So I made this tool to help me run random.choice(restaurants)

So I built RawStr Notes.

Please check it out here: https://rawstr.com/

> easy to try examples and a sandbox environment.

This. The best marketing tool you can have is an "API explorer" style documentation where each call's documentation page comes with a built-in form to fill out and make an API call and see the response.

Note that it has to actually work. If one of the form fields is "API key", you've squandered most of the potential.

If the procedure to get an API key involves more than entering an e-mail address (which will be @mailinator.com, because I don't want to have your sales pitches cling to me if I decide the API doesn't meet my needs), I'll have to be very desperate to bother.

If the procedure to get one involves talking a human (which often means "in a different time zone" or "not awake at the time I'm hacking on my project"), that means "you will definitely not be able to try this out within the next hour". Since I'm trying to solve something now not in a week, if there are competitors that don't create these hurdles, I'm going to go with them.

If I can solve the problem by either waiting 8 hours for you to come online or write code for 4 hours and no longer need your API, I might choose the latter, because I want this solved now.

No idea how it compares to the RM2, a lot of people seem to rate it favourably but very few people have owned both so I don't know if thats just buy in hype. Theres a few youtube comparisons, but I have no intention of watching a 45 minute video that will end with "its up to you".
RawStr Notes solved a personal pain point with all the cloud-based notebook currently. Hopefully this could be of use to other software developers. Please let me know what you think. Thanks!

>The bottom line is, if you see that all your news sources are repeating each other, it may be time to diversify your news sources.

If one news source reports "this is a sphere", and another reports "this is a sphere", and yet a third reports "this is a sphere", then you better go find and listen to the crackpot insisting it's a cube. Otherwise it's a sure sign you're in a bias bubble. There is no underlying truth about the shape of the thing, so any similarity in reports must have come from the reporters being hacks and bullshitters. Why yes, I am very smart and a free thinker. Let me tell you how you must be in Plato's cave for accepting the sphere-narrative instead of my preferred cube-narrative. I wonder why I am perceived as arrogant and tedious?

Also, we're jaded. We've seen tons of bullshit. If you're omitting the details, I immediately assume that the reason is that seeing those details would make me less willing to buy/use your product.

in general, kitty and alacritty are both pretty damn fast. xterm lags behind, and really lags behind if you're using truetype fonts. wezterm wasn't included in these samples; my general impression is that it's behind them both, but catching up quickly. Konsole and VTE-derived terminals are well behind the Kitty/Alacritty forerunners.

if you're using wayland, foot is a masterpiece.

Oh boy, thanks for the detail, love it. You've probably been more fortunate than you can appreciate for now. I mean, I've not yet had a DO IP which wasn't listed blocked by SNDS (Outlook private block-lists): https://sendersupport.olc.protection.outlook.com/snds/ipStat...

Would be interested to hear from others who've acquired new DO IPs that weren't blocked on that list though. Change my view of the whole scenario.
It would be (and it is tried, but according to dang less than you would think so),

Classical marketing approaches are hard here - I think you would indeed be better off to just provide solid technical details and arguments for the product.
> Germany at least requires cats to be registered and have a chip or tatoo id.

No, we don't. The only requirement is a chip + rabies shot if you are taking your cat, dog or ferret with you across other European countries (per directives 998/2003 resp. 576/2013).

> My ex lives there, has lost her cat, it was captured by animal control and she had to pay a 300€ fine at the animal shelter to get it back.

That is not a fine by the government, it is a charge from the shelter for the trap, medical checkout and accomodation cost.

Which states that the TOTAL renewable energy is 11%, with biomass being the majority.

A Record Type Representation Trick
From Wikipedia: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taliban#Background

> After the Soviet Union intervened and occupied Afghanistan in 1979, Islamic mujahideen fighters engaged in war with those Soviet forces.

> Pakistan's President Muhammad Zia-ul-Haq feared that the Soviets were planning to also invade Balochistan, Pakistan, so he sent Akhtar Abdur Rahman to Saudi Arabia to garner support for the Afghan resistance against Soviet occupation forces. A while later, the US CIA and Saudi Arabian General Intelligence Directorate (GID) funnelled funding and equipment through the Pakistani Inter-Service Intelligence Agency (ISI) to the Afghan mujahideen.[112]

> About 90,000 Afghans, including Mohammed Omar, were trained by Pakistan's ISI during the 1980s.[112] British professor Carole Hillenbrand concluded that the Taliban have arisen from those US-Saudi-Pakistan-supported mujahideen: "The West helped the Taliban to fight the Soviet takeover of Afghanistan".[113] Nearly all of the Taliban's original leadership previously fought in the Soviet-Afghan War for either the Hezb-i Islami Khalis or Harakat-i Inqilab-e Islami factions of the Mujahideen.
