I might be in the minority but I never found the old UI to be confusing. Public buckets were never the default and it was pretty clear when you were making the change. It's good they are making it more dummy proof but I'm not sure it is fair to say they deserve blame

As a sidenote I actually find all the new warnings and stuff annoying (but I'm not saying it isn't worth it all things considered). As a developer I'm quite used to having to pay attention to details already - one typo can be disastrous and there might be no warning (you might say but that is what a proper CI process is for and testing but what if that typo is in the CI process or tests?)
Any suggestions on where to start to use this as a LTE uplink that reads from an SD card and uploads images? I'd like to replace my expensive faulty game camera subscription.

Moldex masks are made in the US. Their unique construction also protects them somewhat from counterfeits since the 3M masks are the low hanging fruit everyone is copying.
Try re-reading it. I didn't say anything about meth manufacturing, although it wouldn't surprise me.
That's what you get by continuing a civilization for 2000+ years without significant cultural gap. But let's hope we soon can start colonizing Mars, I just see no outlet for this earth to avoid a nuclear war given the situation.
Are you asking why everyone doesn't want the same things from their computer?
and given that vaccines target only a segment and pretty much the same segment, such mutation based escape from all of the vaccines at the same time is of very high probability - https://journals.plos.org/plosone/article?id=10.1371/journal... . And the fact that the current vaccines don't prevent delta infection seems to confirm it. Whereis natural immunity targets multitude of the segments (and not only of the spike protein) thus naturally providing much more robust immunity.

We need a vaccine for delta. Unfortunately from MBA perspective it is much more profitable to push the current vaccines down the throat of the populace through forced mandates and hysteric propaganda instead of investing additional billions in the vaccine for the mutated virus.

2 shots don't work, thus the 3rd, "booster", then what? the 4th? It is pretty typical for the medical industrial complex to push to sell more and more product in response to low effect, like that opioid dosage increase.
No it's true. The street closures during pandemic were mostly in downtown commercial areas and were broadly supported by restaurant owners. They hardly impacted residential areas. Politicians who try to increase charges or reduce availability for residential street parking inevitably face a lot of resistance.

Building a new walkable neighborhood is fine. Trying to drastically alter an existing neighborhood is nearly impossible.
It can't be just me, that demo is so janky - exactly how I expect most electron apps to turn out.
A marketing person might consider this a way of spinning a known negative into a rhetorical positive.

Unless people are being bitten by Covid-bearing mosquitoes, blood serum antibodies aren't going to be seeing virus earlier than the upper respiratory tract.
You are being downvoted, but your comment is sadly accurate and not exaggerated.

The members of the Académie Française prescribe the language out of there asses instead of observing how people actually speak it and documenting the language according to this observation. Last example is the gender of "Covid". Unlike our Canadian friends, everybody in France started saying "le covid". Only for the Académie Française to wake up a few months later, telling everyone to say "la covid", out of dubious and easily countered justifications. The members of the Académie are not even linguists. They are regular, if conservative, speakers at best. I don't know why I would even trust them on handling the language better than random people on the street.

But actually, random people on the street are the ones defining the language. The right approach for covid would have been to say "ok, everybody here says "le covid". Canadians happen to say "la covid". Covid is therefore either feminine or masculine". Wifi has both genders in France and nobody died because of this.

English is spoken a bit differently depending on the area of the world and there are rules which are discussed. So what. No academies will change that by the way. French is spoken slightly differently across France, never mind across the world.

Just pick your style and your version, and be consistent in your formal writing if you value this kind of things.

(And yes, you can split infinitives in English, obviously ;-))

Platinum might be a better fit in this "really heavy" category. 21.447 grams/cc versus gold at 19.3 grams/cc.
The splintering is real, but the differences between distros is also real. The pace of updates and the availability of packages is pretty important, as is a large community that you can lean on for support, even if passively by searching for solutions to common problems. Maybe you mean "of the 5 most popular distros it doesn't matter"; then sure.
Agree but it needs to behave like an authoritarian little group - lots of autonomy and decision making abilities.

A lot of car designs are done by a single person aided by a small group of exceptional designers. That brings me to a second point - that team has to be the cream of the crop. Not any goof with design degree but a demonstrated long history of exceptional understanding of human to machine interaction. Apple attracted such people back in the day.
No, and it probably won't unless Apple releases GPU documentation or a kernel blob (neither of which are very likely)
Well, I claim that is a way too broad definition of "transformative". The people kept creating the same products, by almost the same procedure.

Brilliant. Squat then cousin calls the owner and says, we can get rid of them, just pay us and then we'll pay them too. Rinse, repeat.

> but why leave a flat in town empty?

In places with rapidly rising housing prices and strict rent control, it would be better for a speculator to hold the property empty rather than rent it. If you rent it, you lock in the rental price, even if prices go up a lot. If you keep it empty, you can wait until it appreciates the amount you want, and then rent or sell it.
HAHA! You've clearly not been to California recently. You can shoot heroin or smoke meth on in front of the state capital building and no one's going to stop you.
I await their verdict on liker (to like on Facebook) with interest.
It's not so much about availability or even quality as it is convenience for a lot of us. Soviet funk here, favorite TV news theme there, C64 remixes over here, NPR tiny desk over this way, and a rendition of the full original vocal lyrics to the M:I theme which is basically only available on YT itself...

I can't imagine trying to source this stuff independently and keeping up with it, and if some commercial music crept in I imagine it'd be easier to simply stay on YT and ask what level of quality one subjectively needs for dental drilling, or mindless work, or throne-in-lair-sitting, or whatever it is...
> It's not truly convenient if you're stuck with it.

That's a bit extreme. I would say that it's only inconvenient if you need/want to switch - everyone can make a guess about the probability that they will want to switch in the future, what effort it would take and whether that's worth it for the value they will get in the meantime.
The problem is that the big guys will very soon figure out: hey, squatters good, make business for us! And before you know it, the thugs themselves are doing the squatting. And before you know that, the biggest thugs are doing that because they beat the weaker thugs in the squatting turf war: there are no bigger thugs you can call.
Sure, but Netflix is collecting my viewing habits about what I watch on Netflix. That makes sense to me. But Netflix isn't collecting my Hulu and Plex habits. The TV is aggregating all of those, which they have no business doing, and selling that. Though now that I think about it, all 3 probably sell your viewing habit data.
As far as I know there has been progress made to add native linux support for the M1 (the work done by the people at Asahi Linux comes to mind) but there's still a long way to go. However virtualization isn't too bad, I've been using UTM and their prebuilt images and that's worked for most of my needs so far.
Show HN: Blade – A simple, fast, clean and dynamic programming language
Hi all,

I've been working on a new programming language called Blade for a couple of months now and think it's time I introduced it to people and get reactions and feedbacks. Plus, I need people to test it and find the bugs in it.

The repository is at https://github.com/blade-lang/blade and the documentation is in progress and going great at bladelang.com and even though I wanted to wait to write everything before I do this before, I think it's best to get started with letting people know about it now.

There are lots of tests in the repository and experienced developers can basically pick up the language looking at those tests and by reading through the bundled libraries.

There's also a Visual Studio code extension for easy syntax highlighting in the VS code marketplace (https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=blade-lang.blade-vscode).

Also, I am greatly wishing that I'll find some contributors through this post who can fix some of the things I might be missing on and who may as well be interested in contributing libraries to it. The process of doing so is really straight forward and I'm available to guide anyone through the process.

Feedbacks are highly appreciated and treated with upmost priority.

Thanks all!

Yeah, it really was a hindrance to multitasking. Your palette would sometimes reshuffle as you switched applications, making it seem like your screen was about to explode.
From my experience no one cares if they are as long as they more or less work.

> If you are not sure you have the correct system running, stabilizing it is the last thing you want.

Stable in this case just means you are clear what the system is and can keep operating it if you want to.

That is a prerequisite to evaluating the system in order to determine whether it is what you want.
This is the reason why it's ridiculously hard to just get a flat rented in Spain. Ever since covid it has gotten much worse.
You will not believe the checks landlords and the agencies require, the bank needs to play along as well.
Apple has definitely lost a lot of trust in the HN crowd, but I'm not really sure how far that extends to the general public.
I'm not an expert on all of the safe areas but the richer areas of Mexico City and Oaxaca are certainly safe.
Moderna apparently has a 33% higher volume dosage?
It's still under heavy development (see https://asahilinux.org for more details). Developer Alyssa Rosenzweig has been doing great work on getting Linux graphics to work on the M1; just a few days ago she announced that she got GNOME to work on the M1, though without graphics acceleration (https://twitter.com/alyssarzg/status/1429579145827127296). It's still going to be a while until Linux on the M1 reaches daily-driver status.
You should check out touristy parts of India. Kerala backwaters or Himalayan towns of Dharamshala, Manali, Gangtok would also work. Alternatively, be basic and go to Goa. If there is one thing India has, it is good internet.
Because most people are not aware of the issues and actually see members of the Académie as people who have authority on the language.

And yes, their ridiculous, expensive dressing does work.
I've never worked on a Mac, but I have Ctrl and Alt swapped and I agree that it's much more comfortable.
I'd second what the other poster said - your best bet are recommendations of blogs you like already.

Looking at my RSS feed, I'd also endorse Andrew Gelman's blog (applied stats), A Collection of Unmitigated Pedantry (history), and Applied Divinity Studies (rationalism à la ACX).
Honestly, decent health insurance will be the biggest cost in many cases, whatever country you go to. The subsidized stuff is usually only available to citizens and permanent residents. A short-term visitor has to pay full up front. While healthcare costs in lower income nations are lower they're not trivial.

Otherwise, even a high-cost country like Canada (or the USA) can just about be afforded on $1000 a month if you go out in the sticks and cook for yourself and take transit and walk. But non-residents are looking at that much again, for private health insurance.
If you're savvy enough financially that $500k is not interesting to you, just holding, paying taxes and insurance, and hoping for appreciation is a terrible investment strategy.
I don't actually think macOS is any less buggy than windows, as someone who uses both constantly. And wsl2 is decent if shockingly hard to set up properly. But damn, having my macbook not relocate all my windows when disconnecting from a monitor is such a godsend.

The linked issue contains several issues describing the same problem, but what I meant to say was
that which duplicate they were of was never made clear. The maintainers seemed to assume that everyone knew what it was and never provided a link to the original issue.
Considering that in this case there's a finger inside the ring, I'm not sure if that's such an amazing idea.
Eventually it becomes more profitable to automate. See: Sony's automated PS4/5 factory. Formerly these would've been assembled in some Foxconn plant by tens of thousands of low wage workers.
Intel ME is apparently disabled and not connected to the network interface in the Librem 13/15 if I remember correctly.
> It uses 156 megabytes of memory even on this high-volume scenario, so I would say that while baseline performance is low, it doesn't get slower, which is good.

no ! it's not good ! this mindset is why everything sucks :( at no point one should have to accept that "baseline performance is low" for a software developed by a multi-hundred-million-dollar company that was almost bought by MS for a few billions
I've been learning to draw lately. It's amazing how much of what we presume to be natural ability is "just" the product of endless work. During my day job, I do math and it's the same. People say "I'm not a math person," but that's as stupid as "I can't draw." It's self fulfilling.

Personally, I prefer "work diligently" over "work hard" because the most useful mental model for me is that it's a marathon, not a sprint. The idea is to go far, not fast.
Canada also made the bold move of mixing different vaccines, even though there were zero clinical trials of multi-vendor vaccines.
The US is 4% of the world. All else being equal, we would eventually move towards manufacturing 4% of things.
Absolutely, some hedge funds have learnt a painful lesson of a so-called short squeeze..

Put options can also be quite expensive but risk-wise way more attractive than shorting the stock.. To make options position less costly (but also inevitably give up some upside) put bear spreads could be considered: buying 1 put option and short-selling another put option with a lower strike.

It's probably still worth trying to reduce the amount of virus in circulation, even if individual risk is low. There's someone in another thread talking about being on immunosuppressants, for example.

I don't think it's a binary condition either, we can do things that are more effective and less costly (like cutting down on large, indoor, adult social gatherings) and not do things that are less effective.
It's not "make N antibodies". It's a bunch of cells in parallel creating cells specialized to each create a single random antibody. Cells that create antibodies that don't work don't reproduce (linear decay). Cells that create antibodies that worked reproduce (exponential growth). This process stops when the infection is gone.

For the mRNA vaccines, the antibodies only target the some protein, but on the other hand they all target the spike protein.
Natural immunity products antibodies that could match want part oft the virus.

The amount of protection you get against a new variant is related to how well your existing antibodies match the new virus. With natural immunity it is likely that only some of the antibodies match (and since each antibody exists in random amounts, the matching antibodies may be the ones that you have much less of). With vaccine immunity,all of the antibodies produced will work against the new variant if the spike protein is the same, offering nearly the same immunity to the variant as the original virus (assuming the spike protein doesn't change significantly). We know that the spike protein is significantly less likely to change than other parts of the virus so that's a reasonable assumption.
that makes sense, but I also don't see how it's a huge problem. Commercial/industrial space can't be easily converted to housing.
They could.

Once you decide to go outside the law, you take responsibility, do your research and prepare as best as you can.

See, these people don't exactly want to be criminal gangs, they just want a quick Euro for little risk.

So, your house and you want to kick out squatters - yeah, sure. Someone else's house and you want them to break in - no way, we're not insane.

Most of the time.

If you deal with some crazy cunts, they can burn your house down.

Generally why the legal way is preferable. But if you're desperate, you can look at alternatives.
Yes… the wireless card on the Librem 15 has given me some grief due to sticky roaming. I’ll have to look into this!
Sure. The point is that despite the obvious legitimacy of the listing, all the reviews are memes.
I don't really see the problem here. This is part of the deal he signed when he agreed to follow steve jobs. He delivered incredible value to shareholders.

I have no love for apple as a company but they hired this guy to do a job and he did it about 10X as well as anyone expected. I think a lot of folks were expecting another Sculley or Amelio situation.

He is not getting paid in cash, he is getting paid in stock for which he is primarily responsible for the increase in value thereof.
There's videos showing exactly how to do it using vice grip pliers available in any hardware store, it's very easy and takes 20 seconds.
The Queen's English.... Pretty clear.
Is it just me or is a prepayment risk effectively moot for large loan investment companies like banks?

After all, even though their calculations were counting on the profits of that money, having it back now means they can loan it out again, and possibly will receive a lager return if interest rates have risen.

For instance, my mortgage is at 2.49%. Right now interest rates are at 3.04%, so if I paid my mortgage off today the bank should be able to find a borrower who would pay over 20% more for the same money, right?

I get that this could go in the opposite direction, though, so I know it's not a perfect answer.

I think you can make a valid argument against me with this. DCMA is a hell of a law.

To my defense, I would argue that this speaks to production and sale of circumvention tools, and does not actually criminalize the execution of this code. But I weaken my original position about outlawing software. Thank you.

There many cities in Greece where you can live with 1k. Patras, Chania, Ioannina and other relatively small cities offer a good balance between cost of living and access to various activities. Try to avoid Athens and the well known islands & tourist places since rent is expensive. Greece is safer than other Eastern European countries (IMHO), has relatively good internet access, more sun, friendlier people and most people know English. There are many co-working spaces available and there are some government programs running for attracting digital nomads (tax exemptions, work visa…).
