Yes, I totally agree with you, did not mean to come across as contradictory in any way.

I do not fear being downvotes at all on this topic. If I'm not getting downvoted by the few persistent anti-climate-change voters here, then IMHO I am not pushing forward the truth enough! People, even here, have a lot more to realize about the technological, economic, and political implications of the transition that we must go through in the coming decades.

The reason could be as simple as to add just enough friction to nudge people towards a paid support plan. We agree that it's a silly way to create a value add, and we both agree that it's unenforceable because of the choice to license under (A)GPL.

You're being needlessly hostile and made vague claims about whether or not something like this even allowed under GPL. You haven't demonstrated that this isn't allowed, and that's all I was pointing out. Understood?
The use of C++ enables a couple architectural optimizations that would be difficult or impractical in Java, aside from C++ generally producing significantly faster runtimes. The important difference is that C++ is a systems language -- you could replace C++ with Rust, Zig, etc -- whereas Java is not.

Scylla has a highly optimized low-level I/O path that largely bypasses high-level OS APIs and kernel services that Cassandra and other open source databases tend to use. This will typically generate an integer factor improvement in I/O performance if implemented well and makes a big difference for the kinds of write-heavy workloads Cassandra was built for. It requires taking strict control of low-level memory access and behavior, which (for better and worse) is the default case in C++. This code is intrinsically non-portable.

Additionally, there are some important classes of throughput optimization that are incompatible with garbage collection. In principle you can abuse Java to effect these optimizations but it is much easier to implement these optimizations in languages that don't have a garbage collector. If absolute performance is the objective, like Scylla, it is easier to do the implementation in a language that won't fight your intent every step of the way.

tl;dr: The performance isn't so much that it is written in C++ but that C++ makes critical optimizations relatively straightforward and economic to implement.
Of course it is never quite that simple. When people are cash strapped and under stress, pure unemotional logic may not drive all decisions. Making a $140 purchase when you know you can get by in the short term with a smaller purchase just doesn't add up to a person in that situation.

I find link mangling to be a great test for when a service becomes too powerful relative to its users, able to add friction to its product that serves no purpose for its users[1]. Google started doing this around 2004[2]. Facebook didn't do it until a few years ago. Slack and Discord don't do it. Yet.

Maybe keep an eye out on the PineNote. It's bound to be much worse than the reMarkable as a writing tablet, but it should also be general purpose in a lot of ways the rm isn't.
Depending on how the fiber was installed, you’ll probably be able to swap the fiber by just pulling or blowing new fiber down the existing conduit.

You can’t just drop bare fiber in the ground, and cover it up. So pretty much all fiber will probably be inside plastic or metal conduit, which also creates an opportunity to replace it much easier than laying new fiber.
The Onyx Boox series is really good. The writing experience is almost as good as a Remarkable. The reading experience is excellent, and it's runs Android.

Agreed - it seems to me they’ve built a medium that signals at the described rate, but didn’t actually send data? I could be misreading. I was looking to find who’s TCP/IP stack got pressed into service, but I guess that’s for a future story.

Edit: this isn’t my area of expertise, but https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28674318 and the provided link explain why even “Internet” (let alone tcp/ip) might be quite orthogonal to what this technology really is.

Yes - what makes you think you can determine objective reality, and even assuming you, or somebody, could determine it, why should there be a MORAL obligation to believe in it?

Would you say then there is a moral obligation to not believe in god? After all it seems unlikely that god is a part of objective reality.
Credit Karma's Chief People Officer on BNPL: 'Debt Is Debt'
I didn't say it had anything to do with renewable energy, just that they had less reliable power production. And no, it had little to do with that storm, Texas face power problems almost every year. It is systemic, and largely due to politics of them cutting themselves off from other grids and how their energy sector works.

Europe is way more robust since the net is extremely well connected between countries, and I don't think that factories can buy up all available electricity like they did in Texas causing power outages for homes. Rather Europe would shut down the factories and let people have electricity in their homes. Homes losing power for a few days is a huge problem, factories shutting down for a few days isn't a big deal.

Sorta, kinda. Except it tends to turn itself back on at random. Except there IIRC are two auto-plays on YouTube: one for normal videos, one for playlists - and YouTube's search has a nasty habit of returning results that happen to be smack in the middle of some random playlist.

And speaking of YouTube, the other annoyance is the extremely idiotic anti-feature of pausing the playback and displaying "Are you still watching?" popup after you go a couple of minutes without moving your mouse or tapping on the screen. No YouTube, I'm not watching, I'm only listening on my wireless headset. But you already know that. What you don't know is that I'm in the middle of some household cleaning and my hands are covered with caustic chemicals, so I frikkin do not appreciate having to press a stupid button you introduced to get more "engagement".

The Unbelievable Grimness of HermanCainAward Subreddit
Note that DeversiFi uses StarkWare's StarkEx Ethereum scaling technology, and does so in off-chain data mode.

This means that Ethereum transaction fees for DeversiFi's end-users are extremely small because they use almost no marginal L1 Ethereum gas.

So, Bitfinex subsidizing DeversiFi's users' gas fees is not as expensive as it may sound.

In this case, the $23.7M fee was likely in error and unlikely to be money laundering because the fee was paid to a random miner.

This is FB so its always hit or miss, but it's great too see companies end-of-lifing products with an unlocked OS.

Hopefully this means someone will be able to keep it alive, or use it for something useful to them in the future.

> Carmack [the CTO] pointed out that the build will let anyone who finds an unopened Go in the future update the headset to the final version of the OS — even after the servers are closed. He also expressed hope that this will set a "precedent for when headsets go unsupported in the future."

This is such a refreshing perspective from a tech company! I hope this sets the precedent for more companies and more products.
The more I read about the Manhattan Project, the more I become convinced that if it were not for the Manhattan Project, we might not have nuclear weapons even now.

There were a bunch of things that came together perfectly.

1) A bunch of intellectuals of the higher caliber that could be brought into a single location. A lot of this had to do with the rise of Nazism which led to a lot of these high powered intellectuals fleeing Germany and Eastern Europe for the US.

2) A bunch of money that could be poured into the project. At that time, the USA was completely committed to using every resource it had to win WWII.

3) Convince all those intellectuals that working on creating the most destructive weapon ever was a good thing. If there was ever a "good war" in the history of the world, it was the war against Hitler. I think almost everyone in the West understood at that time that stopping Hitler was of the highest moral imperative and that massive amounts of violence was the only way to stop him. Even with all this, people like Oppenheimer had their doubts. (Of course this would end up being used, not against Hitler and the Germans but against the Japanese).

4) The theoretic foundations for all this work were just laid a few decades before. This could not have happened before then.

I don't see such a convergence of factors happening afterward. I don't think you could get the top 100 leading scientists together to build a superweapon now.

If it were not for the Manhattan Project, I think it is likely that we would still be living in a nuclear weapon free world. Though, if that is a good thing or a bad thing with respect to great power wars, I am uncertain.
The whole set of credits for the original Amiga version is less than ten people: two programmers, one artist, one musician, and a couple of producers. This port was done by "FrontLine Design", who seemed to be three more people, according to the text in intro.asm.

I'm not sure you need a complex project management toolbox for a team that size.

(Digital Illusions grew into DICE, who certainly does need complex project management tools; I wonder how many of the original members are still there.)
Finally, warp drives.
You should also probably look at T&C of the services you are embedding to see if they allow it.

There's a limit to how much integration you can add via an API. Not to mention that a lot of services don't even have an API or have outdated ones.

> By displaying directing the content you save one click and you make the workflow more natural (and it also gives the idea to do it, if a user see a link in a blank document he will like "meeh why would you do that", whereas when you see an iframe, you get the logic easily).

Not sure what you mean here by "link in a blank document". Why not just directly open the 3rd party app in a new tab when you click on an entry in a side menu? There's no click saving, really. You are just embedding the tab that'll be opened.

The other problem is that most apps are not built to be embedded in an iframe. While they might appear to work normally initially, one click could break them because iframe is not the same thing as a normal browser window. Of course, you could provide various workarounds for it but the experience will be subpar at best.
I totally agree; I personally hate this style of code! However, people still write it (in the same way they screw up tabs+spaces), and in some code bases it's "the style" they use.

I've also seen a lot of SQL and LINQ (C#) written in this way, as well as things like:

var longString = "Line 1\n" +
"Line 2\n" +
"Line 3";
Doesn't sound crazy at all, there's not really anything in your breaker panel or your meter or the outside wiring designed to stop these signals, it's just that there's also nothing designed to help the signals make it through all that, so you wouldn't expect it to continue beyond your house. Just like they tend not to work very well when used on different circuits, they shouldn't work very well outside your house, which is certainly not on the same breaker at all.

I think the newer ones all have some sort of encryption/pairing system which at least helps you ignore your neighbors transmissions.
You can disable some of this by disabling the wake timers setting in your bios/UEFI menu.

I personally turned them on intentionally, as I mostly use my PC as a music/fine server these days; I configured most of my applications (bubbleupnp, nginx, airsonic, everything, etc) to start up either as system services on boot; the rest (WSL, fb2k, calibre) start up on login via schtasks, so if my they aren't working remotely I can just login via TeamViewer to log into my profile. Without this setup, my computer would _never_ get updates, as I don't sit down at it much anymore.

IKEA and Costco (amongst others) have chartered entire ships in order to secure shipping slots. A few weeks back there was a "Ask HN" posted about how to set up a shipping company. Shipyards are back-logged with orders for container ships. Shipping rates are through the roof.

My biggest concern is that when the bubble bursts (i.e. the global backlog is processed) that there will be a hella lot of insolvencies which will lead to cancelled orders (for container ships) which will lead to lay-offs as shipping prices crash.

The git extension on VSCode is already pretty good at doing diffs on jupyter notebooks.

I distinctly remember this not being a core feature of stock git and needing Jupytext to enable version control on notebooks. So, I feel like this sort of language specific stuff is already happening, but not in any unified product.
You can also get these for running ethernet over coax as well. Can't speak of the experience, though I'd bet it would be better than over power because it is isolated.

My apartment has some places that have coax runs but not ethernet runs.
> Specifically sqlar is a worse replacement of ZIP.

I mostly agree. However, it does have some advantages too, as mentioned in the linked article.

(An alternative way to query archives by SQL would be to implement a virtual table; in this case it can work with any archive format. In the case of ZIP format, it already does this.)

> filesystem and custom metadata besides from simple st_mode

Since it is a SQLite database, you can add additional tables etc, so it isn't a problem.

> solid compression, metadata compression

I think that using separate archiving and compression is good, which would do these things. A separate program should be used for archive and for compression.

However, in some circumstances, solid compression is undesirable (as mentioned before in HN). In some formats, solid compression is optional, but you might want an index, and there will need to be some way to find parts of the file by index. This is why in my own experimental concatenatable compression format, you can add an optional key frame index.

> encryption

Also encryption should be a separate program from archive and compression too, I should think.

(However, there are extensions for SQLite for doing encryption, so it is possible to use those if wanted.)

> the compression mode (DEFLATE vs. uncompressed) is implicitly indicated by `sz = length(data)` and I don't think it is a good idea

I agree; it doesn't look like good to me either.

(Although, the Free Hero Mesh code page file does something similar, but in that case the uncompressed sizes of lumps is always exactly 2048 bytes anyways, so there is no need to store a separate uncompressed size.)

Interesting thought. Jonathan Haidt has a chapter about spirituality in his book "The Happiness Hypothesis: Finding Modern Truth in Ancient Wisdom".

I had a thought some days ago: "Maybe the rise of QAnon, and other similar outlandish ideas, stems from a spirituality vacuum. Given Nietzsches' proclamation and the continuing destruction of their own credibility by the catholic church and other religious organizations, it seems to me those people seem to try to fill their spiritual void with something. Maybe a need for shared consensus or values, which postmodern society does not supply."

I made the mistake in that post of not mentioning that I didn't want to be required to connect the rm2 to wifi, and installing a package manager would mean I would need to do that to install software. If anything it would be something I would temporarily install, use it to install rsync, then figure out how to uninstall it, and in my mind that's functionally equivalent to what I was doing with docker. Pushing to / instead of /opt was my mistake :)

I apologize, I could have better expressed why I took the path I did. I'll edit the post later today.

What I heard: "counter anecdote: everything you said is true and canceling the subscription is an enormous pain in the ass".

Canceling should not be more complicated than signing up. If I can sign up in 30 seconds with two clicks, why would a process with phone calls (with very long queues) be acceptable? Also, I hate questions like "why do you want to cancel?" it's none of your business!

I thought about signing up for NYT, WaPo, and other news sites to get access to some articles I was really interested in, but then I remembered how painful it is to cancel at some of these sites...
