Just waiting for some Linux-based VDIs now. Azure Virtual Desktop is all RDP-based. It also used to be called "Windows" Virtual Desktop.

While it's not something I would necessarily use for myself, having the option is really empowering especially for engineers within companies.

I am an Android mobile engineer. I have extensive SDKs and library development experience, particularly with modern android architecture components, Kotlin, and Java. I thrive in a position where I can help other teams solve business problems more efficiently and I love working on fast growth oriented teams. I would prefer a mobile first-centric organization but am open to almost any type. I am mainly looking for a android mobile engineering role but am also open to backend dev roles as well
At some point I made a news-articles site and I took that approach rather than databases: the owner would write XML files for each article that would be pretty simple: e.g. with tags like `title`, `image` (left, right, hero)`, some asides and some basic formatting for the body of the article, and XSLT, templates and CSS would make it a proper page. All the magic happened in the browser. I still think that's pretty cool.
That must be how DrRacket works, right?

I've also dreamed of accessing Racket macro syntax errors at runtime and building my own interface for viewing the errors. For example, send sandboxed DSL code over an HTTP request, and send any errors in a response to view them on a web application.

I also cannot see very far, but I suspect you could whip something like this up using the error-display-handler [1] parameter and the macro stepper [2].

Of course, there is a paper written about DrRacket (aka DrScheme) which you can study [3] as well as DrRacket source code [4].

The county didn't have the power either to do it themselves, it ended up being the voters who approved the additional sales tax (iirc another 1%) at the ballot box. We are probably comparing apples and oranges though, too many differences in government.
> The free Delphi community edition

For a moment I was tempted to look into Delphi again, as I have spend many years in that environment. However, I see now its free until you hit USD 5.000 revenue per year. Not 0 USD, not USD 50.000, but only USD 5.000. Yes, that is the Embercadero that I knew. Probably this 'free' edition is canceled next year. Would not be the first time...

Edit: yes, still only runs on Windows
> usually because proprietary code is not a[s] profitable as proprietary data

Bingo. This is why Google et al. would never sell your data; they just keep it for themselves and merely sell to advertisers the ability to precisely target you (“pick a demographic down to the shampoo brand and we can target your ads to it”). But those advertisers (or anyone else) will never see a single iota of your data. It’s simply too valuable.
Keeps switching between different outputs in games and no matter what I do with the default communication device etc. it keeps happening. I lose audio in games on random intervals and I don't get it back until I switch my output device to something else and back.

Used to happen only in Warzone but now I'm noticing it affects games with other engines as well.

Granted I have a very non-standard setup but it shouldn't be causing any of these issues.
The American situation is very concerning. I suspect it is correlated with the high temperature of the American public discourse. Whenever we encounter a different opinion, we assume the worst and immediately reach for the flamethrower.

Not sure what to do about it, I caught myself doing it and I like to believe I am on-guard for this kind of behavior. I substantively edit my messages to remove first draft inflammatory words. Perhaps the old email advice: put it in drafts and send it tomorrow morning.

I've been thinking lately that even on HN having a 'parent upvoted your reply' signal might be an interesting experiment for promoting civil discourse.

We should be mandating these requirements now for EVs:

1. Allow smart charging and discharging to the grid, to lower the overall peaks of energy demand (these peak periods are what drive power prices/shortags).

2. Direct user road charging, based on time of day, location, miles travelled, and vehicle class.

Its particularly dumb to add more energy demand to peak hours - ie. by allowing cars to just charge as soon as they've plugged in once the driver gets home (which is typically peak demand, right at the same time as solar generation fading).

Maybe they just mean the audio UI? It's complex, and at least on Windows 10 it's a mix of the new UI and old UI.

For example, figuring out how to configure and test surround sound channels means click through multiple dialogs, and it's not clear how exactly to get there.

With Windows 10, it's even harder to access sound mixer than it was on previous versions, and this is what to use in 99% after clicking on audio icon in the taskbar.
Not the parent poster, but I'll chime in.

I have a pretty solid Dell laptop from work, and yet, there is one frustration that beats out anything else: audio.

I can't play music without it stuttering and skipping and sounding choppy and cutting out if something resource-intensive is happening, like Firefox loading a new page (but how often does THAT happen?)

Same with audio notifications. When my "new mail" notification sounds choppy, the underlying system must be just absolute garbage.
> will not have access to the same frictionless services anymore.

Yes they will... They will have access to same exact Apple In App Purchases feature that they had before.

> Suddenly, Epic has %28 more margin

Ok, so then it is not about you having access to the exact same thing that you had before.

Instead, it is that other developers, have more money, and don't have to pay an Apple fee.

Thats pretty different.

You are not complaining about losing something. Instead, you are complaining that other developers, have to pay a lower fee than they had before. But you still have exactly the same thing as you had before.

Generally speaking, lowering costs are not something to complain about.

Lower costs are good.
Quantifying Wokeness
Great landing page. Love the focus on integrations, tho I immediately wanted to know more. None of those logos are clickable, and I was impatiently waiting for the logos to scroll to see if there was an accounting integration. I also don’t recognise all the logos. I’d suggest this deserves its own page, and from experience, this will draw in users / customers via search / seo.

I found a repo for your admin panel which talks about a ‘Medusa Cloud’ account, but I can’t find any other details about this.

There a couple of models with integrations, you can build them as open source, but then you have to maintain them. Or you can have 3rd parties build and maintain them as Saas offerings. Either works, they both have significant positives and negatives. Either way it’s a significant opportunity for revenue generation.

If you’re interested in Xero / accounting integration reach out. I could work with you to build your own, or could connect you with folks that would build out such services around your product.

Minor:

In the end of the video he lists off the number of things he did that were fancier than necessary. One of them was the use of an Arduino for the pulse duration and switching. I found myself reflexively commenting, "It's called a 555 timer." I'm confident that the same function could be more minimally implemented with a 555 timer and maybe a couple other supporting chips. But he's probably getting more consistent control of pulse duration and it was probably easier for him to implement as well.
I don’t understand the legal basis for the lawsuit. Violating TOS isn’t against the law.

Azure powershell docs are the worst. All you get told is the name of fields, no indication of what they mean, or the expected inputs/outputs.
The only time this happens is when the employee was harming the company in any way (insider trading, selling IP etc). It's pretty obvious who the law favors in these situations.

Right. I bet this will be huge for companies like Stripe, Square, and Shopify.
I think with lawyers, the problem is basically GUIs. Because most computer users, even very high-skilled computer users like lawyers, are used to consuming software in the form of GUIs, you tend to get these kind of all-encompassing WYSIWYG programs like Word, with mysterious internals, and an endless labyrinth of useful tricks that lawyers tend to know, which are in one way amazing, but in another way essentially limited by the imaginations of the programmers, because they're monolithic and basically inflexible.

This is basically an education / culture problem. I'm sure in two hundred years, people will recognize that 'sort' or 'uniq' is really elemental functionality like a saw or a hammer, and baking it all into one giant saw-hammer-sanding machine that's really only good for making tables, and occasionally eats your cat, is just not the way to go. Until that point, I don't think that some plucky new startup is going to magic away all the problems. I mean, obviously there are some crazy low-hanging fruit out there, but the fundamental issue starts with how people are using computers in the first place.
My main complaint on windows is more on the UI than the technical audio. I've got like 15 audio devices listed under the audio menu and windows can never figure out which one I intend to be playing from (and gives them terrible names) so I have to constantly be manually switching it around until I find the right one. My experience on Mac and Linux is that they seem to be able to switch to the right device as it connects then switch back appropriately when it disconnects.

I do agree that writing is not _necessary_ to improve your thinking. However, I think that writing about a topic will often if not always improve your understanding of that topic as well as your ability to communicate it.
I think that's because when writing about something you have to be slower, more deliberate and more structured than thinking about something in your head which helps you identify gaps in your understanding which you can easily miss when the idea is in your head.

I think the better way overall though is just to try different methods of thinking and do what works for you. I also think more than one method is almost always better than just using one.

I like this - the hash function is memory-based rather than CPU-based so it's easier on your CPU while being more costly for attackers to spoof en masse.

Good thinking!

This is undoubtedly cool but I'm curious to know of a use case that would warrant installing this. Could this just have been a step in creating "Windows Subsystem for Android" [0] that they decided to release as its own layer?

The screenshot on the github page shows VSCode, Edge, Blender, Xcalc, Xclock and GNOME file manager which are all either available natively on windows or redundant.

> Because that is what the patient can afford.

The whole point of these things is to get them to pay for the costs of whatever the patient needs. These needs are determined by their doctor. If they're not paying, they have no reason to exist.

Not being able to help people because of lack of resources is one thing. These companies hire experts and pay them bonuses every time they find some loophole they can use to get out of their obligation.
Thanks for the explanation. They must be talking about UX indeed.

I have implemented subscription using many APIs (stripe, PayPal, processout, Apple, Amazon, Android...) And Apple is by far the shittiest.

And you cannot even refund your own customers...

> Even if Stripe charged 30%, I would choose them every time over Apple's IAP.

Note that Apple is charging 15% for small developers ( https://www.apple.com/newsroom/2020/11/apple-announces-app-s... ) - not 30%.

Stripe's rates are $0.30 + 3% ( https://stripe.com/pricing ). Paypal is a quite a bit better at $0.09 + 5% for micropayments.

For a $0.99 IAP through Apple (with all of the associated infrastructure to handle IAP) that would cost $0.15 to the developer.

That same purchase through Stripe would cost $0.33... and the developer would need to provide some way to handle IAP. Paypal would be the same as through Apple.

That "set up some way to handle IAP" is going to be interesting too.
Fusion360 is the only thing I run a VM for. There’s a repo out there that sets up wine and installs it but it just doesn’t work very well at all. I’m using VMWare Player and set up the virtual disk to boot from the Windows drive and run it that way. It works really well. Other 3D printing stuff like PrusaSlicer works great on Linux. I’d love to have a native version of Fusion though. Maybe someday.
I guess it's hard to tell without over-parsing his words, but you bring up an important distinction.

It may be fair to read it as a scientist essentially saying "we have no evidence it's possible." But as I read it, the addition of "ever" came across as saying he thought it was an unsolvable problem rather than one that had yet to come upon a solution.
That's true.. in fact, seeing V100 FP16 < T4 FP16 makes me believe you're right, the V100 should be much faster if the tensor cores were being used.
End to wnd encryption is when on one end you encrypt data for every remote end that is supposed to decrypt this data. That's why it is called end-to-end, because all ends are known and nobody can tamper the correctly established communication with correctly verified recipient. That's how all e2ee protocols work, otr, omemo/signal, etc.

If you do not know what end is going to decrypt it, is is just an encryption with a key/password. Anybody who has the credentials can access the data.

These WhatsApp backups could be restored by 50 different 'ends', so using e2e in this context is incorrect.
I think it's the lesser evil in terms of privacy and self-hosting if you need anti-spam protection for something. In today's world spam/not protection is becoming more and more necessary, and even with JavaScript this is less intrusive than a service from Google or Cloudflare or something.

Suboptimal and an inefficient use of resources, yes, but possibly the only way to combat bots without privacy intrusive services. I'm open to hearing alternative ideas, though!

I don't think that's true at all. I just played out the quiz over CDU positions (replacing "America" with "Germany", and correcting for places where German law is already to the "left" of American law). I came up with:

Marijuana: Somewhat pro-legalization

Same-sex marriage: No

Immigration difficulty: Much harder

Reduce regulations: Somewhat disagree

Reduce police forces: Somewhat disagree

Universal health care: Strong agree

Science unimportant: Strong disagree

Raise minimum wage: Somewhat agree

Better Germany than elsewhere: Strong agree

Gun control: Stricter

Whites systematically advantaged: Somewhat disagree.

Abortion: Illegal in all cases.

Economy is unfair: Somewhat agree

Racial minorities can advance: Neutral

Discrimination against whites > blacks: Somewhat disagree

Raise taxes on high earners: Yes

Path to citizenship: No

Wealthy people spur innovation: Somewhat agree

Climate change: Somewhat important

Reduce income differences: Somewhat agree

I think I can cite coverage for each of these positions, and, in come cases, actual votes. Someone reading this actually is a German who pays attention to German politics and can correct me if need be. Remember: these questions are all relative to the American status quo.

I wound up "nearest" the "New Labor Party", but in the top-left quadrant (where there are no party clusters in the American VOTERS data set). As one would expect, as a German CDU member, I'd be much more socially conservative than the "liberal" parties NYT proposes --- but notably distant from the Patriot party! --- and much more economically liberal than the "conservative" NYT parties.

Mainstream German politics are definitely outside of the "liberal" consensus of the US; you're at least half right about that. But there are a lot of positions of the Trump-era Republican party that are way out of the mainstream of the conservative German consensus.

The question is whether there is a what is the greatest cost you are willing to impose on everyone to provide a small benefit to some specific people.

I’ve honestly never had a single issue with it and wasn’t exaggerating when I said I use it nearly every day. I save any/every video I find useful to my NAS because I don’t trust Google not to delete the persons account for some arbitrary reason.

The only “gotcha” is sometimes downloads fail and if you don’t know to check the logs (in the top menu) then that can get confusing for new users, but usually it’s something simple like you need to update the YouTube-dl core (also just done via the menu) or you chose a download format/resolution not supported for that video.
Yeah, it's very confusing.

Array is a monad. Then what's the function that takes an array and returns another? Is it map? That can't be because map takes two parameters, not one: the array and a function that it will apply to every element. Something is missing in the explanation.

And why is Option a monad? What's the associative function that takes two options and returns another Option?
