I don't know of anything really magical but for years Apple has been steadily pushing apps towards APIs that give the OS a lot of latitude to manage energy [1]. Grand Central Dispatch, AVFoundation, etc. Then on iOS BackgroundTasks etc (and iPhones have had little cores for quite a while now). I would imagine a lot of that experience transfers to macOS.

The centralized + draconian approach they take has a lot of problems but does help sweeping changes like this.

no but you need a GPU, and your average person with a work lap-top can't run it and probably postponed buying a desktop computer, if they ever considered it.
I lived in a town of about 800 people during the onset and first year of the pandemic. More than a dozen people from my town alone were in Lombardy and a couple of the super early outbreak areas of Germany during 2020 sportlov (the break that stpe mentions in parent comment). I knew first-hand a lot of people who were really ill in March and April, though I don't know if it was covid for sure, since our testing was insufficient then. Anyway, yeah, lots of Swedes traveling to the wrong places at the wrong time right then.

The focusing mechanisms on the bellowless tend to be dodgy or nonexistent, and the good ones cost as much as a bellows camera.

Ultimately, the lenses for these cameras are still not that cheap, so the overall savings on a low-quality body may not be worth it.

Try https://www.spreedly.com/ or https://www.inai.io/, otherwise stripe owns your members cards and in turn your customers (it's not feasible to ask every customer to reenter their cards if you need to migrate). I believe they are required to support card data export under PCI however to another card vendor, so hopefully that can help.
You don't need a high level biolab, a negative pressure tent in your garage and a PAPR respirator would probably work fine. Not exactly super safe, though.
You should already be getting your minerals from your diet, and food is an all around better way to get micronutrients in general. The mineral that's in the highest abundance in tap water is calcium, but there's better calcium to be found in broccoli. Same with things like magnesium... if one's health hinges on what's in their ingested water, their diet is terrible. There's nothing in water you can't get in greater quality and abundance in food.

There's this urban myth that distilled water pulls minerals out of your bones. Go find some high quality studies that demonstrate this incredibly flawed idea and get back to me. ;) Things like calcium in your bones aren't in a form that distilled water could dissolve away even if it wanted to (that's just not how things are working in the body though). The other theory is that the body would cannibalize calcium from the bones if there's no other calcium available; if you're getting even a modest amount of calcium from diet, which is easy to do with even the most unhealthy diets, this is never going to happen. If you are osteoporotic or are at risk of it, no amount of water is going to save you, and the evidence that mineral-free water would make it worse is nonexistent.

If it was dangerous to be consuming water devoid of minerals, the FDA would pull things like reverse-osmosis and ZeroWater filters off the shelves. But people keep repeating the evils of distilled water as if it's concluded fact when it's anything but.

Meanwhile, distillation and reverse-osmosis guarantee that heavy metals, microplastics, and many pharmaceuticals never make it into your drinking water in any meaningful amount. For some people it improves the flavor, as in my case, but others don't like it. But to anyone reading this, try drinking distilled exclusively for a few weeks and then drink tap water again. For me there's an obvious difference in smell and flavor that is tolerable but still off-putting.

That is a class action law suit waiting to happen. I'm not saying it's not technically possible. I think Apple is smart enough to not do that.

Threads about censorship consistently remind me that HN is no different than any other social media platform, subject to users pushing various agendas and misinformation in support of those agendas.

There's nothing wrong with private businesses removing content they don't deem appropriate. There is also nothing wrong with silencing users obviously lying. Thinking differently totally misunderstands social media as a medium.

Web Development in Common Lisp: frameworks overview, templating, deployment
Sort of. It's like shadowbanning/hellbanning. It solves a lot of problems for moderators and prevents angry people from escalating the situation into actually being banned.

I've used it before as a moderator. For the above reasons, but mostly because I'm lazy and don't want to deal with angry people. Still censorship though. I think that ideally censorship ought to be communicated.

These two toggle are funny.

What the encryption key will be used to encrypt the e2e encryption key?
Sure, its a private communication service. Why isnt it okay? You are using FB infrastructure to communicate, they absolutely should get a say in what you are allowed to share.
Author didn't say that everyone needs to fix their habits or anything. It wasn't pretentious at all. It gave some solid tips on where it most often goes wrong if you want to go from mediocre coffee to great.

I don't measure my own coffee on a scale from "terrible" to "enjoyable" because they're all for a different purpose and mindset. The main point is that people enjoy their coffee. If they're often finding the experience lacking, then they should try to fix the process.
I'm going to go on out on a limb and guess that this isn't really a case of censorship, because it's not like Facebook to not tell you directly that they've removed your content. Or they go the other route and post a disclaiming "fact check" under it.. but so far as silently removing posts, and marking them as "sent", seems more likely to be a bug.

When I attempt to navigate to gnews.org the site is very slow, and I wonder if Facebook is having trouble assigning some kind of risk factor to it, then giving up, but ends up sending a "success" response anyway, whereby the front end just assumes the message was sent property and pushes it to your message cache without attempting to fetch it over the network.

edit: since this has been down voted, could you explain why you think I'm wrong?
> Especially if there are DNS records which specify which CA is used for the certificate.

If you're thinking of CAA, those records are not for anybody except the CAs. They're an indication to the CA "You may/ may not issue for these names" and explicitly never an instruction to clients about what's trustworthy.

It's unusual but completely sound to have CAA set to forbid all CAs, switch it to allow just one CA, get a certificate issued, then put it back to blocking them all again for a week or months. I'm not recommending that procedure, but it's sound and if any software can't handle that the software is broken.

The idea here is that all the public CAs are trustworthy but their procedures may not be a good match to your particular way of doing things. For example if a CA does ACME http-01 proof-of-control (like Let's Encrypt) and you let customers run arbitrary stuff on port 80 on your machines that's a bad combination, probably you should get your certificates from a CA which doesn't use ACME http-01 and restrict CAA.

Sure. And because the out-of-the-box is so great:

Your phrasing seems to imply that

I would disagree with both of those implied assumptions
For another example of such totalitarian shenanigans consider the practice of "shadowbanning" : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shadow_banning

Ostensibly used for spam/troll countermeasures. In practice used to dick with whoever they choose for whatever reasons please their black little hearts.

Reddit and Twitter are notorious for it. Other "social media" organisms too.

AND ANOTHER MORE IMMEDIATE EXAMPLE

Consider the way that downvotes progressively remove a post from view.

It's a way of crowdsourcing the task of censorship.

Many hands make light work.

And the blame is neatly spread around.

And the actual shape of the censorship, the form being conformed to, is only indirectly controlled by the admins. Thus more blame neatly escaped.

It's goddamn elegant is what it is!

It seems really unlikely that waymo wasn't aware of all these limitations when they selected the area they were going to trial the service in, and more like they selected the trial area to purposefully minimize demand.
So, let's say I create a Docker Hub image with alpine as the base, then I install a package from the Alpine repo.. let's say Chromium. So now you're telling me, that is a fork of Alpine and I should be forced to recompile Alpine entirely anytime I want to install a package and create a Docker Hub image? I guess that is one way to ensure no one uses Alpine for container images ever again.

You can run linux TODAY, you can run netBSD TODAY. it's not fully featured yet but you can run it. Locked down has a clear meaning and macs aren't locked down. Ipads are locked down, Iphones are locked down. It's impossible to boot a different OS on those.

Linux has ran for years fine on macs. I don't see any reason why it won't run fine on the M1 macs.
Normal filter grinded store bought coffee is too coarse so you'll need a grinder for that anyways.

Or they need the money to speed up the development. In some sense taking any investment is like betting against yourself.
> Too many times it doesn't see some keys combinations I hit.

This caught my eye because I tend to think the opposite of this statement. Emacs doesn't skip a beat on text input -- unlike say VSCode which has perceivable input lag. In my experience, when Emacs gets slow it's a configuration problem, like flychecking on every keystroke, or a slow/poorly written third-party package. Raw emacs is blazing fast.

Disclaimer: I use `emacs -nw` -- no GUI toolkits.

Congratulations on being another vector for misinformation.

It has never been the case that anyone suggested that N95 masks could stop the passage of naked SARS-COV-2 particles.

However, when ejected from the respiratory passages during breathing, coughing, sneezing, the viral particles are not naked, but bound into much larger particles comprised mostly of bodily fluids. N95 masks do a stellar job of preventing the passage of such particles. Yes, edge sealing is an issue, but it is completely incorrect to claim that as a result "they don't do anything beneficial". Citing a single statistic from schools in Florida is not a legitimate way of overturning worldwide, vast-N studies that support the efficacy of mask wearing.
Really? Have you been living in a cave for the past two plus decades? 3D printing, arduino, opencores, etc have been big news and are all open source hardware.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open-source_hardware
Yeah, that’s the general idea. Essentially a state machine with a send queue and receive queue, and four operations:

- Input received raw data

- Output received application data

- Input application data to send

- Output raw data to send

Obviously, since TCP connection state is time sensitive, the “raw data” wouldn’t just be the IP packet and headers, but also a time stamp telling the state machine when that packet was received/sent. If you want the state machine to keep track of time even when no packets are being received or sent, there could be an additional operation just to input a timestamp without additional packets. In effect, time is just another input that the user is responsible for feeding to the state machine at sufficiently fine intervals.

In practice, you could emulate this pattern with a callback-oriented protocol stack by populating an in-memory send/receive queue in your callback function, but that design can be somewhat inflexible because it forces potentially undesirable constraints, e.g. an extra memory copy that could otherwise be elided.
I love that this exists.

God Bless America.
Yup. I wouldn't hate it if it were illegal to write new applications that processed untrusted input in memory-unsafe languages, at least in the not too distant future. The fact that the industry doesn't see this as an urgent need is just embarrassing.
You haven't played it. I was following it for a while and even sent in a couple of patches (I don't think they were ever accepted though). The ground side user interfaces were horribly ugly to the point where it was hard to use:

(Yay I bought a new weapon! Huh, where is it? In the cargo bay?!? How do I get it mounted? I have to sell it and then rebuy it after I sell my current weapon!?)

At the time, the active devs were mainly implementing new shader models for all the ships. There was even some talk about porting the entire game to OGRE (that at least would have helped with some of the UX junk since they could get rid of the custom widgets).

The game code itself really needed to be reorganized. The way things were subclassed ended up with weird things like all the individual parts of the ship including items in your cargo hold effectively having fuel tanks (of nonzero size), blocking those from showing up in text descriptions, and hard-coding fuel handling code to ignore most (but not all parts of the ship). Or maybe it was armor. It was obtuse, but at least if you wanted your missile launcher to shoot missiles that can shoot spaceships it would be supported.
That's not entirely true. Blade grinders are simply breaking the beans unevenly. There's even scientific studies on how bean temperature affects how much fines they produce when grinding.
You should watch some of those clever (thermal?) imaging videos of what happens when people sneeze when using various kinds of coverings (or none at all).

The aerosol spray from even an elbow-covered sneezed is something to behold.
I really like your analysis. But rather than falling apart, for me, it reifies the truth of the entire piece.

As Tarsul points out elsewhere in the thread, he was a profoundly sad man and killed himself a few years after this speech.

At the end of the day, neither the old fish nor the young fish could escape the water.
The claim that learning weird languages will help you learn new ways of thinking about problems that may be helpful in other langauges, and the claim that using 'boring' languages is the correct default for building production systems, in no way contradict.
The article says this about Baratza grinders:

> I prefer the Baratza line of grinders which can be easily maintained over time. An entry level model will set you back about $150 and you may be able to find it cheaper used.

Which I think undersells the best part of Baratza, as a part relevant to HN: the company actively supports maintenance, sells all parts and refurbished models, and has very helpful customer support. I love that they don't need to be forced into right-to-repair. I'm a very happy customer.
>Enter market, disrupt, get fat and lazy, raise prices, drop quality

Exactly this. But, it's funny how a brand's image sticks. I selected Zendesk for a business I ran years ago. And it was the slow-boiling frog experience, where it takes time to ultimately realize the rift between where you started and where you are. But we hobbled along due mainly to switching friction.

Still, I instinctively reached for them when evaluating support solutions recently, based on name and familiarity alone. But, with fresh eyes, it was immediately obvious that they were a complete nonstarter.

MailChimp's the same. They may not have ever been the lowest-priced solution, but time was they made it easy to get started and the value was there for a startup/small-biz. Now, they're trying to be quasi-enterprise with an over-priced bloated feature set.

These guys start disrupting by aiming for simplicity in a value-priced, pro-small customer offering. Then, in the pursuit of endless growth, they raise prices and become staunchly anti-customer in favor of their own economic objectives.

Would be nice to see companies continue to maintain their disposition to original customers and ethos, but pursue growth through new options that are truly optional and not subsidized by the entire user base. That, and adding new, complementary product lines that still retain that original ethos.
I have never understood the love for these.

They're small, hot as hell, you don't prepare much coffee out of it, the coffee is burning hot, it's easy to fail your coffee, and the taste is most of the time very (too?) bitter.

It's not. I don't read have numbers but my anecdata (of probably hundreds of people across several continents) is that maybe 1% of users switch to vi mode and most revert after a while.

I live in Taiwan and I think you're reading a little too much into the "special relationship" here. Japan's concerns are borne more out of the practical fact that if China takes Taiwan life is going to get a lot more difficult for Japan, not the mutual fondness the Japanese and Taiwanese have for each other.

The Japan-Taiwan relationship isn't super comparable to the US-Philippine relationship either. The program you refer to,
under which non-immigrant Filipinos could join the US Navy, was built on the presence of US bases in the Philippines. The program ended in 1992, the same year the US Naval Base in Subic Bay was closed.

Although Japan is getting closer to Taiwan today because of the China threat, Japan still does not officially recognize Taiwan, has no military bases in Taiwan, etc. Japan and Taiwan dispute the Senkaku Islands.

Finally, despite the fact that modern-day Taiwanese and Japanese people for the most part have very favorable views of each other and tourism between the countries was very popular pre-pandemic, Japan's history with Taiwan's indigenous people is not pretty.

Well. Actually you do need to read the documentation. It might just coincide that you already did it in the past.
Your logic can also be applied to questioning whether we should start a war.

Those populations may not be comparable, the headline numbers are from people who were PCR tested to be positive, the population-wide studies are based on seropositivity and modelling. The Israeli study explicitly calls out that it may be undersampling asymptomatic infections.
Microsoft silently censored MSN chats 20 years ago. Couldn't talk about PHP programming easily because any message with 'index.php' was silently dropped. Blew my mind they would dare do that, but I've since learned this is common practice at all major chat apps.

If they don't like a message you are sending they are likely to silently drop it and let you think it was delivered. Just no care at all for the user experience at a base level.
