C’mon, compatibility with the host OS is just one of many deployment issues that need to be solved.

Deployment covers a ton of problems including resource allocation, traffic routing, discoverability, health checks, secrets management and heaps more. Containerisation just provides a unit of management.

I work in Go which has great backwards compatibility, builds static binaries, and since //go:embed you can release a single binary containing literally all resources needed to run an application.

We don’t technically need to use docker to deploy our services but we still need an orchestration platform.

Ironically given the discussion, we’ve chosen nomad over K8s, but nevertheless we needed something, and “backwards compatibility” didn’t really even register.
Hi everyone! I built this as a way to quickly create a mock JSON API.

I've often found when starting a new project, usually someone works on the frontend and someone works on the backend.

This creates a state where the frontend developer has no backend to get data from.

Thats what I built this app for: to quickly create a few mock endpoints that can be shared between the team

Its built with Google Cloud Run and DynamoDB which means this can be deployed and hosted entirely for free
Apple Car seems like an Apple Albatross with an RMS Titanic clamped to each leg. They should've just taken up commercializable fusion power with the kind of money needed to pull off a new car.

They could start by improving light switches, power outlets, and record players. Or even microwaves.
Just to add: if anyone is interested in learning more about the sudden appearance of extremely varied life, this event is called the “Cambrian explosion” and makes for some very interesting reading.
The act of delaying launch takes non-zero amount of time in the real world, so at some point the slippage fraction gets so small that the launch will happen while being about to be rescheduled.
> I wouldn't call it a "meh", even if it comes off as much more expensive than fission.

It's not competing with fission, though. It's competing with renewables + storage + load shifting + efficiency. Compared to those, it might indeed be "meh".
How do projects like LIGO ever get completed? I’m probably totally naive here, but I thought LIGO is physically larger and has many difficult constraints. The LHC comes to mind as well, and that absolutely dwarfs ITER in physical size. What’s the difference? Dealing with heat output? Superconductors are really hard maybe?
I've run into this too. My solution was to add some code in entrypoint.sh that looks for the UID/GID of mounted files, then creates a group and user to match. We can then exec the real command as that user.
Right? I get it. But ship your own self first… then play the regulator game. Talk or walk or it just looks like waaaa.
>- Fragrance: Welcome to life. Everything is scented. I hate it, but putting a scary orange "D" next to it should make you roll your eyes in light of the other fragrances that saturate thousands of other products that don't get rinsed away, and thus stay in the air around you.

No, it's not everything, and it's not everywhere. There are many spaces which are free of fragrance for the most part.

It really does INCREASE QUALITY OF LIFE for many people, who are sometimes NOT EVEN AWARE of the effects this synthetic crap has on their physical well-being.

And all it takes is JUST A LITTLE BIT OF VIGILANCE on the space administrator's part in not accepting and not allowing it into the space.

Just like we are creating safe spaces which are not tolerant of bullying, bigotry, harrasment, etc., many are also creating safe spaces in terms of hazardous chemicals.

You are ignoring a lot of progress in this area when you paint things as hopeless or good enough.

And EWG is one of the most competent, clear, and level-headed organizations working in this space. They provide scientifically supported, solid, and well-researched information in an easy to understand format.

I don't think you are qualified to criticize them given what you wrote above.
Didn't George Costanza make millions with this app idea, only to lose it to Madoff?

Also, NY bathroom pro-tip: look for the local police precinct. They will always have public bathrooms, they exist all over NY, even in the more residential areas with no shops, and the type of people who go and destroy public bathrooms or shoot up drugs in them for hours usually aren't going to voluntarily walk into a police station.
I'd count the unloading phase as well.

With hand-washed dishes, there should be no ambiguity over whether or not the dishes are clean or not (if they're in the drying rack, they're clean). With the dishwasher, not only can I not immediately tell, but often what's been washed is not in fact clean.
Not choosing is a choice as well, the truth is that there are so many possible timelines but we will only ever experience one. So I would get comfortable with not knowing :)
I will go to my grave thinking that we'd have never locked down for COVID back in the 80s, 90s and even 00s.

Matter of fact we didn't lockdown in the early 00s for SARS.

Further it seems to me that the progress in prolonging human lifespan and the collapsing levels of interpersonal violence are not worth it if the price to pay is constantly living in fear.

Whether we like it or not we must admit that the self -confidence and arrogance that causes a bar brawl comes from the same part of the brain that compels people to publish their long odds theory of everything or a moon shot company.

Which is incidentally the same part of the brain which gives people the arrogance to think that COVID is a nothingburger and they'd never catch it , and if they ever catch it they'd never die from it.

People thought that the castration of Western society would have been a free lunch. There is no free lunch out there.
I don't think so; I believe it's foolish to expect to solve 21st century political problems with 18th century political technology. I think concepts like a wikiocracy and contractual citizenship of virtualized territory are where things are headed in the longer term.

The notion that you'll get good results by delegating all your political power to a representative for a period of years is asinine on its face, doubly so when their decision-making is subject to all sorts of perverse incentives, no matter how decent of a person they are. That seemed viable in a bygone era where the pace of change was glacial, to the extent that the America of 1776 would have been easily comprehensible to a Roman or Greek time traveler. In the early days of the American Republic, legal issues fo rhte average person did not change so much from before, except insofar as royal prerogative no longer existed. Many of the early landmark legal cases were about matters of state rather than relations between individuals and the state (obviously a generalization for the sake of brevity).

Over time the US (and other state) legal systems have inexorably grown in volume and complexity, for reasons that are still debated but ably summarized here: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-020-73623-x

This increase comes at a cognitive cost, both for individuals who enter or are caught up in the legal system, and for lawmakers and those who elect them. Endless patching with no practical opportunity for refactoring or rewriting in a situation that should be familiar to most HN readers and whose outcomes are quite predictable: either you freeze the code and it becomes increasingly brittle as the environment continues to change around it, or the code turns into an unmanageable mess that is in various aspects oppressive, corrupted, or exploitable by different actors, and social goods of coherence and predictability are inexorably eroded, a situation in which we arguably find ourselves at present.

Radicals of all political stripes (including myself) regard this as unsustainable but disagree on the values and mechanism that ought to replace it. Those who insist that everything is working fine and as the founders intended tend to be either successful collectors of political rents or naive optimists who have never seriously experienced or imagined life under other conditions, , like users of a software tool who have never felt any need to explore the preferences dialog or examine the paradigmatic foundation of the tools they've learned to use.
Arrays are nicer for the IN case because Postgres does not understand an empty list, i.e “WHERE foo IN ()” will error. Using the “WHERE foo = ANY(array)” works as expected with empty arrays.
That’s an excellent idea!
Here's a render of the completed reactor: https://www.iter.org/doc/all/content/com/gallery/media/7%20-... Note human for size.

It's all completely bespoke scientific equipment hand made for this project only. The cryostat will be the largest stainless steel vacuum vessel ever made-- all welded by hand.

After welding, a substantial number of in-vessel components have to be installed by threading them through access ports, which is also quite a task: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pt70mO2nQac
There's this phrase "elite lawlessness" that comes to mind. Perhaps billionaires stepping on each others toes and getting into legal tussles is our best hope to contain the lawlessness.
Ok, here you can see more examples: https://killedbygoogle.com

There are similar pages for other big companies too.
Big difference between labeling it a "waste of money" to having to prioritize whilst being constrained to a limited budget. I mean there's no words that will console a parent that lost their daughter anyways, not really a metric that should determine policy.
you think this is bad, in South Australia they're making people download a government app, and they'll randomly message you and you need to take a picture of your face and it'll submit your face and location. If you don't respond the police with turn up to enforce it.

>Hilariously from the pov of this forum, Sowell is pretty much a hero of the right wing, having been formally trained as a Marxist at UofChicago only to reason his way out of that position back to sanity and then make a career of trying to educate the rest of the world to do the same.

A big contributor to said reasoning out was his observing the antics of late-1960s black Cornell students (mostly admitted via affirmative action and, Sowell said, unqualified for the university's rigors), their takeover of university buildings, and their justifying doing so by claiming various outrages against themselves that were foreign to the day-to-day life that Sowell, a fellow Cornellian and Ithaca resident, experienced.
Has anyone tried one of those tiny countertop dishwashers? I just got one and I think its neat. I guess thats how I can tell I am getting older.
Never have I read so many words and taken away so very little useful knowledge.
It looks like a really well designed product. But you can just use your phone as a desktop webcam no? Maybe this is a bit less faff
You just keep observing the quantum superposition of launch/no-launch, using increasingly powerful lasers.
In addition, I should add there are synergy effects in having the community (and the major libraries) settling on a common way, and you'll only really get that if there is a built-in.

However, if the philosophy here is to be unopinionated and optimize for flexibility over everything else, I feel I can't really fault them for making that choice.
It sounds like the T production chain might itself be quite messy. Molten isotopes salt and lead? How much of that stuff would you need? What do you do with when it goes bad? It may not go boom Chernobyl-style, but it's still far from the birds-in-the-sky deuterium-from-the-sea fusion dream.
I can tell you as someone who works at the bbc is that the reason it feels like there’s a quota, is because there basically is. Well rather a target. Same for hiring (50% women and 20% minorities). And we’ve been explicitly told managers are evaluated based on hiring and promoting to meet these targets
I would love to just focus on dozens of problems / interesting areas to myself, but those of us without healthy bank accounts don't really have that luxury.

I really wish there was a sponsorship model of some sort where folks that just love programming for the sake of it could be sponsored by those wealthy enough not to worry about money anymore.

While there are still a lot of interesting problem areas within a typical workplace, sometimes the interests one has within programming don't necessarily align with the workplace's needs, making it so that to work on the interesting stuff in your own time, which gets harder as "life" happens and bills become plentiful.

I too though read about those famous folks in science and noticed how they had either financial sponsors, or were themselves already wealthy, and that allowed them to pursue their own learning paths in earnest, where I would say that isn't an option for the vast majority of us today (it also circles back to general opportunity...there are so many smart and intelligent people out there that may never get the chance to reach their full potential due to the lack of opportunity and instead have to focus on more basic needs, etc.).
I replaced docker desktop on my Mac with the CLI brew version and set DOCKER_HOST. This is because my 96-core, 0.5 TB RAM Linux server can run it just a wee bit faster than an old Mac mini.
Haven’t been able to find it either.
I think they're betting this is more than a niche product -- with so many jobs going remote, lots of people are going to want a good webcam for Zoom, etc.

Most people are going to look at the comparison between the Opal and A7 and not see much of a difference, but the Opal is 7x cheaper.
Yes that term does seem to get commingled with different meanings. Increasing money supply vs increasing prices seem to be the main ones.

The former usually results in the latter, but not always, and sometimes with lag. And sometimes prices can rise without an increase in the money supply, for other reasons - a decrease in supply, an increase in demand due to some other factor than monetary inflation, etc.

And that's not to mention the different measurements of money - M0, M1, etc. - as subsets of monetary inflation.

I wish economists and journalists would better differentiate by using "monetary inflation", "price inflation", and/or other qualifiers for exactly which one they're talking about.
The Opal webcam ($300) looks fairly similar in specification to the new(ish) Dell UltraSharp webcam ($200): https://www.dell.com/en-us/shop/dell-ultrasharp-webcam/apd/3...

What is Opal offering over the Dell webcam for the extra $100?
The article is misguided. Assumes conspiracy.

- Studies on CPI indicate that CPI is overestimated, not underestimated.

- It's known fact that inflation does not match the common experience. It's solely because people remember easier large price increases and can't weight them correctly.

- There are other measures but they have even worse problems. For policy issues core CPI is better.

Yes, if you cut away the express context of this person declining the specific things the SEC already said, it does start to sound different.

.

> you really flubbed the wording

You're welcome to believe that. I didn't ask.

I see that after learning that you criticized someone for something they didn't say, your preference is to pursue further criticism.

.

> by not making that distinction clear.

Literally all I had to do was repeat it.

Have a good day.
Possibly, but they couldn't power it by attaching solar panels.
Being in a shadow area would mean it would be in orbit of something, and at best it would be in shadow 50% of the time and still need the same amount of shielding for daylight operations. Being in orbit would also mean its position would be much less stable than it will be at the L2 point.
Ask HN: Use HN Through Tor?
I'm curious how the others here are using HN through Tor. I have tried and it is a bit difficult. The Angolia search launches a Crowdflare captcha challenge that I couldn't complete after 3 times. Is this your experience?

The Canadian plans range from $20 to $250. And the $20 party has neutered it further. But the remarkable thing is that the right wing party actually has a carbon tax in their platform at all. 2 years ago they were dead set against one.
You mean like how opposition politicians are on the governments’ payroll and their job is almost entirely to criticise the government?

The government pays for lots of people who are not always friendly to them. Including judges, anti corruption bodies etc.

I’m in Australia so I don’t know as many specifics about the BBC but our ABC which is modeled on the BBC in many ways (except it’s not a license fee but actual government funding that pays for it) has a charter which says ’as a publicly-funded broadcaster, the ABC is expected not to take editorial stances on political issues, and is required under its charter enshrined in legislation to present a range of views with impartiality.’

Given the number of complaints by government and oppositions at various times it does this job pretty well
I agree.
What I mean by large systemic effects is for example climate change.

I can not know whether me personally, as a specific individual, buying an electric car to go to work is better or worse for the ecosystem than buying a used fuel efficient ICE.

I can know that all the carbon we dump in the air and the general carelessness with which we treat the planet on a large scale are extremely detrimental to our civilisational wellbeing.

I btw highly recommended Breaking Boundaries on Netflix.
> There's even the suggestion that there are creatures that can't really be classified into plant or animal - it's not clear what they are at all.

Could you expand on that at all? It sounds really fascinating.
Gas stations will start going under. Gas prices will increase. Parts will stop being made or have prices increase. Used market will be flooded, in a race to the bottom. New electric cars will become cheaper and charging ubiquitous. Battery charging speeds will improve.

This means that within the decade, EVs will be more convenient and cheaper (already cheaper including lifetime costs).
Logitech is making webcams with good microphones for a very long time. Their highest end ones (e.g. Brio Ultra HD) also have build in noise cancellation IIRC
I'd consider narrow depth of field a plus when it comes to a camera that is supposed to be showing my face.
Every mass-media article on fusion seems obliged to use "the fuel comes from water" line. I wonder if a "just says in mice" style harassment campaign would get journalists to stop saying this.
From an outside perspective it looks like neither of them is going away anytime soon and that they just want you to use the one that you feel more comfortable with.
I had my cursor over the 'buy' button until I saw that their client was Mac-only, and it appears to be the only easy way to modify any of the settings. Seems a little silly to buy a webcam that I can only control with <10% of the computers I encounter on a daily basis.
“I smell marijuana” is probable cause… it’s been weakened recently, but probable cause doesn’t have to be proven. “Bloodshot eyes” is another one that works for DUI cause.

OP is onto something - the mesage should reflect that in such case.

One thing I learned at work preparing countless PPTs and bug reports is that people will misunderstand or overinterpret whatever you write, so better write precisely in an idiot-proof manner and provide context.

I personally would move this to be the navy-colored navigation bar. It could be reasonably understood that this section does not directly represent the item shown at the page. Similar stuff should be together, after all - and that bar links to e.g. accessibility statement, which is also a kind of meta-content.

No matter how you slice it, that's a lot of people. More than the populaton of California.
The most important one now is Climate change, see my other comment.
Modern calculations of inflation use the geometric mean of price increases, while previously it was the arithmetic mean. The reason is exactly the geometric-arithmetic mean inequality [1]. This is the largest theft ever made, and no-one knows or wants to know about it.

Key points:

* Researchers analyzed the nuclei of live muscle cells and discovered novel principles of DNA organization and nuclear architecture.

* The research team discovered that chromatin mainly sits on the periphery and is attached to the nuclear lamina (inner nuclear wall), contrary to the current theory that chromatin mainly occupies the center of the nucleus.

* The researchers explained why the chromatin appeared to fill the cell nuclei in past studies. “When scientists plate cells on a glass slide in order to study them under a microscope, they change their volume and physically flatten them. This may perturb some of the forces governing chromatin arrangement and reduce the distance between the upper part of the nucleus to its base."
Irrelevant definitions aside -- I think everyone can agree there is a dramatic difference between a website like Facebook and a website like HN.

The vast majority of the negative psychological triggers, for example, associated with a platform like Facebook, are missing from HN.
I am not sympathetic. All the regular warnings are easily silenced by changes that are good programming practice, once demonstrated to be false positives. Each new warning after a change deserves any attention it draws.

New warnings about old code from new compiler releases often flag real problems.

The danger is that a big dump of warnings get silenced without proper investigation. It helps to start by patching the most-used headers, first.
