> I would not recommend doing this unless you have a really good idea what running a public facing smtpd involves in the year 2021 for full email deliverability to/from all destinations.

It isn't nearly as bad as your post would suggest. There are plenty of reputable service providers, and plenty of software other than sendmail.

> you need an unimpeachable clean section of IP space, which these days means working with a more traditional ISP that will cost you a lot more for service per month

No, it means working with a reputable service provider. I picked up a VPS from RackNerd. The worst I had to do was fill out a Spamhaus form one time. And that's just because Spamhaus is rubbish themselves.

> Like, not a $5 to $25/mo VPS

I pay $23/year.

> And that's before you get into a proper SPF, DKIM and DMARC setup.

These are the least difficult parts of setting up email service. SPF is a simple DNS TXT record; MX Toolbox provides a record generator[0]. DMARC is also a TXT record[1], even simpler than SPF. For DKIM, things like OpenDKIM exist; Digital Ocean describes how to set it up with Postfix[2].

> I don't see a need for a new third thing that's apparently not designed for large scale production use

Mail in a box and some cheap hosting, then you're good to go. It works really well. Better than Send grid on a shared IP, in my experience.

Subscriptions can be a little scummy because companies know a lot of people forget to turn them off. They're counting on that.

It's far from the biggest evil in the world though.

Personally I just vaguely try to avoid them and instead make an effort to pay people for the content I consume in lump sums here and there.
I rarely open articles on my phone (due to not having an adblocker). Some websites are terrible like one of them tries to stop you from being able to back out or scrolls you down to those bad articles at the bottom of many sites.
It's interesting, because I agree that stuff like this is good work music, but it's not something I would ever put on for normal listening.
My commercial project Video Hub App is nearly free: https://videohubapp.com/

It's a Gatsby website and I used to use Vercel with their free deployments, but because I also needed a subdomain with PHP I switched to my cheap $3/month (unlimited website) webhost to serve the static files; but I also use Cloudflare for their free CDN. And the app demos are hosted on GitHub through Releases. The storefront is "free" through Chec.io in that I only pay a small fraction of every transaction.

Huge thank you to Vercel for making deploying Gatsby websites so easy (I run https://yboris.dev/ and https://yboris.com/ through them for free). Huge thank you to GitHub (I run https://income-inequality.info/ through it).

Reduction of embodying a consumer is another positive from trying one's best to not pay for entertainment. It cuts out a large swath of entertainment outlets that are a net negative to one's life, and often, for the environment as well.

Simple example: Say you want to have fun with your children. Instead of buying an entertainment outlet, like going to an amusement park, maybe go on a hike, write some code, or tell stories. If you insist on spending money, don't pay for the entertainment as a product, but buy some supplies to build something. As a grown-up now, I look back on those events more fondly from childhood than any of the purchased activities.
De-prioritizing delete is one of the things that bugs me about Gmail, but plenty of folks seem to like keeping things around. For a while, my employer kept increasing the sizes of our email boxes. I asked if I could opt-out and was told no. I don't need 25GB for email.

I view the emphasis on the scientific method and empiricism as the legitimate means of determining truth to be a major component of secular values. And for what it’s worth it’s a really valuable mindset for most real world phenomena, but not all.

I know plenty of religious people also like the scientific method and empiricism, but probably only as much as where it won’t conflict with their beliefs. I’m sure a pious doctor would easily dismiss a paper refuting the efficacy of prayer. So to me, at least, this kind of scientific worldview is not really a feature of religious thinking, but the two can coexist up to a point.

You should be able to opt for boosters. In this whole shitfest between bureaucrats on policy, people have lost what it means to have personal, bodily autonomy. Perhaps a faction in the govt doesn't want to fund that autonomy, it's either full consensus access or no funding for mass dev, access.
> Who is any person or government to dictate this to me?

Nobody is forcing anyone to attend public school. Send your kids to a private school if you want.

But if you want to benefit from what public schools have to offer, you have to abide by their rules. And one of them is that expression of religion is banned there.

In much the same way that a guest to your house would have to abide by your rules.
One private study on a campus network found that the distribution of titles followed a power law. A handful of songs capturing most of the volume, and then hundreds of songs with only 1 or 2 shares.

It was perplexing to find a business model that could support independant artists.
I'm not sure the degree to which I want to support professional entertainers as they currently exist in most cases. As I said in another reply, I'd rather it worked more like FOSS does.

Do FOSS advocates want to support the professional developers at MS, EA, and Blizzard? Most are probably ambivalent about them at best.
Sounds like your role doesn’t suit your skills. Which is fine: you can’t be all things to all people. Can you just be more open about your competencies at work? “I love to plan things and have ideas, but I suck at marketing them and hitting the launch button”. Maybe your an awesome planner that needs to be partnered with someone more open to risk?

If they fire you for being honest about your skills, then what? You have won! You’ve gotten out of a role you’re not a great fit for freeing you up to find what’s best for you.
Certain kinds of black metal in particular can have a hypnotic or even psychedelic quality.

The songs tend to be relatively long and repetitive. Guitar riffs are often tremelo picking, drum parts are often "blast beats", and vocals might have a lot of reverb and are generally unintelligible, so it all kind of smears out into a wash of noise.

This stuff is a niche within a niche within a niche, but it's very distinctive and very different from the "aggressive" sound in most other styles of metal.

It also goes back to the early days of the style. Check out the Mayhem song "Freezing Moon" and the Darkthrone song "Transylvanian Hunger" for classic examples.

The one downside of black metal is just how many bands and individuals are either loosely or directly related to or affiliated with white power, neo-fascis, or just plain racism. Finding a new band (mostly from Europe) tends to be a "are these guys Nazis?" dice roll. The answer usually isn't obviously "yes", but it's less often obviously "no" than one would like. It doesn't help that there's a fine line between being "edgy" for the sake of being edgy and actually being a Nazi.
> Then every agency would have to trust some central authority.

They already have to do that! The central authority has to issue the licenses in the first place. Unless you are suggesting some absurd, decentralized driver's license issuing? Even that is begging the question though, as there has to be some centralized process to decide who is allowed to issue driver's licenses.

> A.k.a. a blockchain. You don't even need to restrict write access; DMVs can readily ignore transactions by non-DMV entities.

Alright, you are really stretching the definition of blockchain. Like, lets say someone just mirrors the database. So there is a web interface, and someone else copied the whole thing down.

Does that now count as a "blockchain" lol? Having more that 1 copies, of a mysql database, is a blockchain now?

Not in the USA. In this country it's constitutionally protected.
Well, there are a couple billion people who didn't grow up in a Judeo-Christian societies. And, yet, they seem to have morality and life meaning. So, I think you mean, religion in general.

Also, I'm not aware of record of hunter gatherer societies that didn't have religion. Religion is probably something baked in. At least I know that it's baked into me, so I run with it and enjoy it. It's possible to be both rational and religious.
To me it sounds like you're just lying to look like you're "not like the other commoners."

You're telling me your TV, computer, video game console, sound system were all free? Or that you own none of those things? If you're not willing to watch ads nor are willing to pay, but also aren't entitled to the output of professional entertainers for free (i.e., you don't engage in piracy), you just don't watch videos? At all?

Or I guess you only watch PBS and listen to NPR? (But of course those both have sponsor messages in their content sooo...)

Even if you only get books from the library or hang out in the public park you're still paying for those things with your tax dollars, right?

You don't buy gas or pay a bus/train fare to go socialize with your friends and family? When you are with friends and family you don't buy any food or drink that you wouldn't buy if you were alone? You eat purely for sustenance?

Quite literally everyone pays for entertainment, and I don't think I'm interpreting "entertainment" too broadly here.
Bans are no good. And EVs have horrendous user experience when it comes to charging; the wait, the clogged up grid, the broken chargers and no one to service them promptly.
And you can forget about fixing your car by yourself, they will be like Apple products; that goes for modern ICE cars too ofc. I thought right to repair was a thing on HN, but I see another wind blowing when talking about cars. Sad.

It will probably be better in the future, but producing an EV pollutes close to twice as much CO2 compared to an ICE. And then you would think you are going to drive around in it with green energy at least, unlikely. So we are going to replace all personal vehicles with EVs and a ban on new ICE? We could drive an ICE for many years before it has the total CO2 emission as an EV.

It will take a long time before EVs are more than a niche for the city.
In the meantime I hope synthetic fuel can get a foothold in politics and production, so we can slow down or reverse much of this EV nonsense and solve problems.
I'd say it's closer to auto vs choosing ISO/shutter speed/f-stop.

Web tooling for git is very shallow; I wouldn't want to be without `git add/commit -p` for example.
We do good because it feels good to do good, but also because evolution allowed us to develop empathy.

We feel a natural need to help other people because we hope that other people would help us if we needed it to.

"Today, you. Tomorrow me".

We hold the door to strangers, help them carry stuff, or pick them up they have a flat tire, and none of that requires the existence of a vengeful god who will send us into a lake of eternal fire if we don't comply to his wishes. We help each other because we are a social species.

We do it because most people on this planet are good people who want to be happy and who want people around them to be happy.

Religion and gods are unnecessary for any of this.
Specifically I'd like to see some quantifiable data because any region (including the EU) can be claimed to have horrific social problems without anything other than subjective data to back up those claims.

To be honest, I've never heard of the midwest referred to anything other than boring, which seems like it would be a strong contradiction to "horrific social problems"

Black metal music is complex but ironically repetitive and boring. I also find it hard to get into a trance/flow state without some sort of rhythmic bass element.

The term "pirate radio" came from signals being broadcast from ships without a license. When they moved inland, the term stuck around.
It seems like religious people would be far less likely to seek professional help for abuse and that would skew these numbers greatly, considering the methodology.

Lingen, soulseek and piratebay are all very much alive from what I've read.

> instituted systems that have nothing to do with DMCA.

> Under DMCA, if someone strikes my classical music composition, I write a one sentence counter notice and that is it.

Although I agree that there could be problems if a system has no counter-claim process (although, I think that this claim of your is factually incorrect. I think youtube has counterclaims, even for its "fake" DMCAs), I think that you have strongly mis-interpreted the motivations for having "fake" DMCA processes.

The motivations for having fake DMCAs, is that if someone doesn't get a real DMCA, then there is no longer any legal obligation to perma-ban someone for being a "repeat" infringer.

This draconian, repeat infringer policy, which many platforms have, is bad for everyone. And getting around it helps creators.

> "YouTube sides with the content producer instead of your counter notice" in DMCA at all.

I am not sure why you think this is the case. If there is a counter claim, youtube is required by law to respect the counterclaim.
Understood. I got carried away by the topic, will be more mindful in the future.

I'm a minister, in New Zealand (not the US!). I'd always recommend a Christian counsellor to a parishioner who needed counselling, and I'd always go to one myself. If I'm going to unburden myself on a professional I'd rather have a counsellor who was on the same wavelength about God stuff, and I'd really really rather not have one who thought my beliefs were wrong/stupid/etc.

Looking at the Secular Therapists project they clearly fall into the "think my beliefs are wrong/stupid/etc" category. The about us page talks about religion "infecting minds!"

FWIW I’ve had Google recruiters ask me stuff where they don’t understand the answer and the questions are things like “what is the protocol number for ICMP” and “what port does NTP use”. If one doesn’t work with these things very often, they’re very forgettable as they’re so easy to google and find the correct answer to in seconds, and therefore not worth memorizing. No idea if they’re still doing this, but it was like a crappy version of Hacker Jeopardy (#DFIU!). After about 6 months of back and forth with the recruiter and a few interviewers missing interviews, I just gave up and told them I was no longer interested.
> Okay you say, older clients will skip those.

Yes, that is what I say.

> But then someone wants to add threading, suddenly the entire format needs to change

Does it? If older clients don't want to implement threading, they can just receive the message bodies in the order they were posted. The old API should continue to work regardless of the extra metadata which one provider might be storing about it.

Ideally, the host with the new feature would also add an "In response to #123456789:" line at the top of each message, so that users of the older clients can construct the threads in their mind (assuming that these older clients have been listing the IDs of the messages), but I don't think anyone's arguing that a service is breaking interoperability by failing to add such an affordance.

I'm not trying to convince anyone with my post. It was more in solidarity to another person that seemed to feel the same. However, my life is inarguably better (for me) this way, and for anyone interested, I'd recommend at least pondering the concept.

I only have a computer, which I need for work and other activities, like programming. I do use it for entertainment purposes too, however. Think what you will about that.

For the rest, I do my best not to purchase entertainment as a product, i.e., exchanging money for "fun". Obviously I do buy goods and services, like everyone (except freegans, I suppose).

They just abandoned an irrational belief, so by definition, they are immediately more rational.

Napster, and The Pirate Bay, were my best years on the internet.

I still think The Pirate Bay was the best website ever, but for degenerate disenfranchised Pirates like myself.

This technology was developed in the 1970s.

So, if you want to record 60 minutes of CD-quality digital audio you need about 600 MB of raw data storage. In the 1970s this was an impossible amount of data. 600 MB of hard drive space would cost as much as a house.

Without a way to easily store that huge amount of data, the CD could not be developed. And in the 1970s the computer industry had no answer to that problem.

The solution was ingenious.

They take a stream of digital bits, convert it in to standard broadcast video, and record it with a plain old VCR.

Broadcast video refreshes at 60 FPS, 245 scan lines per frame. If you draw 96 black-and-white pixels per scan line, that works out to three 16-bit stereo samples per scan line.

3 samples X 245 lines/frame X 60 frames/second = 44100 samples/second. Hence, the CD audio standard that we still use today.

So, to answer your question, they weren't burning CDs in '84. They encoding 600 MB of data on to plain old VHS tapes, and sending those off to be mastered.
Hey thanks so much, that's nice to hear.
