I believe the Linux kernel has its own implementation of doubly-linked lists:

Edit: Not that I know much about the Linux kernel, but I do remember it being used as a counter example when someone stated before that nobody uses doubly-linked lists.

One solution is to crowdfund higher quality open-source software, including replacement firmware for existing devices.

I would definitely like to flash the firmware on a Smart TV, and would happily pay a subscription for high-quality privacy focused software.
I think that makes sense. Using the technology as designed without the “compatibility” layer is likely a better option. Thanks for sharing as many I think wonder about these DocumentDB and CosmosDB MongoDB imitators.

However, CosmosDB is a managed service, easier than setting up your own database. Did you exclude Atlas from your conclusion for some reason? Ie did AKS do things that Atlas could not?
Flatpak is confirmed to work on 28 Linux distros, and is pre-installed on 9 of them: https://www.flatpak.org/setup. Red Hat Enterprise Linux is committing to a 10 year support lifecycle for its Flatpak runtimes: https://developers.redhat.com/blog/2020/08/12/introducing-th...

AppImage just works on any Linux distribution. There are no external dependencies, since the package bundles all of the dependencies and there is no runtime required. I don't see how an AppImage downloaded today wouldn't work in 5 years.

I don't like Snap because the server implementation is closed source and controlled by a single company (Canonical), but Ubuntu 20.04 LTS (which bundles Snap) is supported until April 2030.
Ask HN: Thoughts on This Idea
Hi, I'm a Product Designer and I've had this idea for about two years but never had the time to work on it until now. The idea is basically combining the subreddits r/RoastMe & r/ToastMe into one app with some other features still in the ideation stage. Let me know what you guys think of the landing page at https://roastortoast.me so far.

If you have any questions or would like to join me in exploring this idea, feel free to drop me an email at contact@roastortoast.me

I tinker with some of this stuff, but almost never deploy it to production. The author, and others who practice this sort of purism, clearly have the luxury of time to dedicate to the hobby. And that’s great. But I have two kids and a wife who works online (as do I) and I just need shit to work otherwise the house doesn’t run and I don’t ever get to have whole days to myself to fiddle about with Nextcloud or whatever.

I have recently started to run pi-hole as I was appalled my the sheer number of awful in-app ads on my TV and my kids’ tablets. It’s messed a few things up but the trade off seems worth it for me.
Yes, thank you for your comment. I feel guilty saying it is my first MVP, but it truly is, as a father. I wish HN allowed changing post titles so I can replace "first" by just an MVP

I don't know the data (or this area particularly well generally), but intuitively I would expect induced demand to be seen in the majority of cases of roads being updated for increased capacity.

Not because of a necessity that any capacity increase must always cause it, but because the decisions of which roads to expand are made by humans who, with the exception of edge cases (maybe the reason for rebuilding was because of the state of the road and increased capacity was a secondary affect rather than the main motivation; maybe corruption led to a poor choice being made; maybe forward looking expecting future demand to increase years later based on other factors like planned new buildings) wouldn't spend money increase capacity unless road traffic has been increasing and looks like it is't about to start trending in the opposite direction soon enough to make expanding the road a pointless short-sighted exercise.

Aka if increasing road capacity wouldn't induce more demand, how likely is it to be in a situation where it's considered worthwhile expanding it?

bicycling and public transit complement each other (almost) perfectly. i don't see why you're advocating for "dedicated public transport lanes instead of bike lanes" as opposed to "dedicated public transport lanes and bike lanes".

> A bus lane will carry many more people more efficiently.

i think it's close. yes, you can cram more people on a smaller space in a bus, but the bus - and upping the lines frequency if necessary - is comparably expensive.

the big difference is, of course, personalized transport.
Hey, I've been tracking this problem - 'Paywall avoidance for submission sites'[1] on my validation platform.

I feel there's a need-gap for a solution which tells the website when there are visitors from high traffic sites like HN or particular subreddits to remove the paywall; Technically there's not much to implement as utm_source or ref parameter is enough but the coverage of solution among major media brands is crucial.

I like the UI of 33mail more. It’s easier to click a link at the top of an email in w/e client you’re using vs digging through apple’s portal and ever changing menus to toggle the right thing off.

Unless it’s gotten easier in iOS15… right now on my iPhone it’s not possible to turn off forwarding.

I need to go to appleid.apple.com,

login, 2FA,

find the menu,

wait for it to load (bec it always seems to take like 5 seconds, even if I just opened it),

figure out which service is the one attached to the email I chose (names of company that makes the app and is thus associated with that ID may not always align with the name I know it as),

turn it off.

Also I don’t get to choose the email address, instead apple makes it a random mix of letters and numbers: which means I must save it to a password manager and hope I never need to manually type it in for some reason (say on a public PC).

With 33mail, the link to disable forwarding is in the header, like any unsubscribe link. You can still manage everything from their portal. You choose the domain and then they set it up as a catch all, to receive everything, except that which you say to deny. So you can have creative names for each service.
I very much doubt it. Apple's M1 SOC is not a standards base design and the OS is very specialized to their hardware. As far as I know they don't even support external PCIe GPUs on the platform.
For me was YouTube playing the same add every few minutes on almost every video I watched (some tooth paste ad) on the iPad. I started by downloading the videos on a PC and watching them later from my NAS but in the end I gave up on YouTube on the iPad and bought a Surface Pro.
Was the leak about the re-stock legit?
>I didn't have any issue getting Samba working in Linux to use with the NAS drives during video editing and transfer.

I switched to sshfs as soon as I migrated my home infrastructure to Linux. It's much faster compared to Samba at least if you have low performance hardware on the NAS side. I wanted authentication and you don't have to fiddle with Kerberos.
I have one response to all that.. fuck that noise.

On that basis I work 864, but I guess in China people are just another natural resource from which to extract value, once all the value is extracted (burned out) they dump that person and take the next one off the heap. Its a sad state of affairs that the Chinese think that this work ethic sets them apart from the rest of the world. It does in a way, but what it really allows is for the chinese government and chinese companies to make them work longer for less and to feel like they are special for doing so.

There is a reason that the west has labour/employment laws that protect people from this sort of exploitation. Sad to see that the chinese people have fallen for this sort of bullshit.

> I don't doubt that T-Mobile could have done more, but it's also frustrating to see this trope that spending more money on security is some type of silver bullet. It's not.

So true. A problem is that "spending money on security" is so nearly always a synonym for increasing the infosec budget under the CISO. Which is useful, yes, but only a partial solution. A bigger ROI would be to spend it on developers who are experts in security and building a culture that cares. But even in enterprise security companies (most of my career), product security is so often seen as a checklist that infosec will take care of, not a core engineering competency.
Odd, I've used it many times and everything works.
I bought an Oculus Quest 2 earlier this year to check out the whole VR situation. It was basically a ghost town with pockets of children and, IMHO, sketchy folks having childlike conversation.

I don't really know what I expected but it wasn't that. Aside from some focus issues the goggle hardware was pretty great but the VR world was not a good experience at all. :/
The entire point of my comment was to say that commodity products like shoes cannot be compared to housing. There is no psychological cost to changing shoes. There is no effect on community development. Moving homes, however, has second and third-order destructive effects, on families, communities, and even individual mental health. The point is not the price-cap, the point is stability in housing is a desirable goal.

Problem: nothing is really confirmed, no source has been provided. People just assume it is, because of the poster's status in the Godot Engine community.

Very interesting paper. The categorisation of upper and lower class could be problematic however. Being a paper from the US, I presume the participants' class category corresponds to assets and income, ergo upper class being simply richer. In other countries, such as the UK, one's class has a totally different meaning.
Collision attacks make for a fun tech demo, but I've yet to hear anyone suggest any plausible scenario where they could be used against Apple's implementation. It would require absurdly elaborate, Oceans Eleven style espionage to achieve any outcome whatsoever. And it would be immediately apparent to anyone involved that a collision attack was involved.

It would be far easier (and far more effective) to just acquire child porn, break into your victim's house, stash physical prints under their mattress, and then contact the police.

Furthermore, the website includes numerous misleading statements about Apple's system, or makes critical omissions on the description of Apple's system. Whatever side you're on, misleading arguments should be dismissed for what they are.

The number of people into furry or anime in the software community is large, especially among millennial generation. But unless we find someone of similar interests at work, we're not going to talk about it (or only describe it in vague terms) because it can creep some people out. Further if you're using VRChat I think you already self-select as unusual beyond that. (Anecdote, my college anime club almost a decade ago was almost all software engineers with an assortment of other science or engineering fields.)
Great link! Do you think it is fair to say the YouTube Premium payout model is similar to the music streaming platform, Spotify?

At the risk of nerd sniping myself, thinking deeper, I wonder if people who sign up for YouTube Premium do less random surfing on YouTube and instead focus on a few channels they love? That would _further_ concentrate their payouts. If true, then the 10x figure sounds reasonable.
FreeBSD Journal: Desktop/Wireless (July/August 2021)
> I don't think people understand how burdensome "proper" Linux binary distribution can be until they actually try it.

I have and it's not really that different from what works on Windows: Compile against the base system you want to support and then ship your own libraries for all other dependencies, statically linking those that you can.

Could there be things to make this more convenient? Sure - one thing I'd love to see is for glibc to support a WINVER analogue to target older versions with the same installed headers. But that is only for convenience - you can just build on older (LTS) distros or assemble your own toolchain if you need newer compiler versions (not as hard as it sounds, there are plenty of resources out there).

> fragment that minority further into Arch users, Debian users, CentOS users, OpenSUSE users, Ubuntu users

How does this matter to binary software distributions? What Distro-specific issues have you encountered that weren't just Arch-has-a-newer-library-so-I-get-an-early-warning-for-compatibility-issues-that-Ubuntu-will-have-in-the-next version.

> all with different glibc versions

So? Compile against the oldest glibc you want to support. All newer ones are backwards compatible and will have no problem running your program.

> Modern tools like AppImage make this at least somewhat standard, but Windows has had sane, standardised installers for almost 3 decades now.

Linux theoretically also has a standard package format (RPM according to the LSB). But just like with MSI on Windows, people tend to roll their own thing for various reasons - and it really is not a problem at all.
We have a different experience. As I wrote elsewhere, i know of two cases where it took months to get the squatters out - and what was left was a ruin. The cases in the news you see from time to time agree.

Squatting is simply stealing. Sorry but I have exactly zero compassion for people who come to my apartment, that I bought with hard earned money, and fuck it up. This is one of these cases where violence is the normal reaction.

I hope that people who support squatters give out their salary and live under a bridge - this would be a true alignement with their beliefs. Otherwise this just hypocrisy ("people should be able to live where they want, except in my house")

Actually with a modern Ubuntu like 20.04 there are not many issues at all. With 14.04 and 16.04, yes, it could be a bit rough with some graphics issues with some Java based programs, drivers etc.

Comparing Ubuntu 20.04 with my wife's Macbook Air M1 I do not see any differences in ease of use.
> Mind you people are still getting compensated in court for autoimmune disorders arising from the Hep-B vaccine, even though no causal link was found.

That's because the standards for being compensated in vaccine court are very, very low, by design, and there is indeed a vaccine court of sorts in the US. It was set up specifically to address the fact herd immunity is so extremely valuable to society as a whole that it's worth having some people be harmed by the vaccine to achieve it because many more people will be saved by it, but not necessarily the same people. Anyone who suffers basically anything that could possibly be linked to a vaccine is then indemnified by that court, even though the vast majority of those who are were probably not indeed suffering because of the vaccine.

Don't take it as a proof that the vaccine is at fault, it's fallacious and is just one in the long list of completely idiotic arguments antivax cultists use. It makes barely more sense than calling ARNm "gene therapy" or complaining about non-existent mercury.
Once I’d already signed up for 33mail I found simplelogin.io it looks great too, especially feature-wise for the price. It’s 2.5x more expensive vs 33mail (at the base plans) but you get a slicker looking UI and a lot more features.

I was excited about 33mail bec the founder hangs out here sometimes.

You’re right I should have kept the disclaimer closer to the link, I’m on mobile and kept adding stuff and lost track of how it looked, it’s too late to edit now.

When a landlord 'exits the business', do they also load the apartment they are letting into a helicopter, and take it out of the city?

The housing inventory doesn't change, regardless of whether landlords are 'exiting'. Like any conscious class, they are just complaining because they, like the rest of us, want more money.
ha, it reminds me of the Croquet Project

Everywhere in Southeast Asia - Thailand, Malaysia, Philipiness, Indonesia, Vietnam plus you have great cuisine and no need to worry about cold weather much.

Smaller towns in Poland, Czechia, Slovakia, Hungary should be also no problem, just forget about top 5 cities in each country, in Bulgaria/Romania maybe even bigger cities, just not capitals.

I would more worry about long term visa situation than about cost.

You also didn't define "living", one thing is sit at home most of the time, cook for yourself and just hang around city without travel, other thing is going to pubs 3 times a week, travelling on weekends etc. Entirely different budgets.

Where are you from? It is a disgusting country because <some fucked up case I will take as the rule>.

It's worth noting for anyone curious: the Quest 2 can't actually interact with or enter the majority of worlds because of technical constraints (they aren't even offered to Quest 2 users unless the author of the world explicitly opts into it and designs their world for it). Most adults are on private, PC-focused servers.

The application is not a stunning technical achievement, but it's unfair to judge the program by jcim's summary, because he seemingly went into it without knowledge of how it worked and wasn't able to access any of the interesting places. It would be like judging Skyrim by an SNES backport.
This is actually against HN guidelines. This is editorializing the article's title which is frowned upon here. It should be edited to reflect the original title.

"the risk associated.... immunity "

I know that it's a very unpopular opinion, but i'd say your statement is unfortunately still not 100% proven for every individual. A healthy 20 yo has "almost" 0 chance of having bad outcome from the covid. He also has "almost" zero chance of doing a hearth infection from RNA vaccines, and we have no idea about the long term consequences of both virus and vaccines, since both are only a few years old.

Making definitive statements in this context is hard.
