I know what mean, but it's not like they're pretending that much if it's an article hosted under nomadproject.io. The first question everyone is going to ask "why should I use this instead of K8s" so you might as well have a good answer.

On the other hand, the Rust project has purposefully avoided "Rust vs X" comparisons on its website. I can't find the HN comments to back this up, but people like steveklabnik have indicated that they don't find that sort of adversarial comparison to be useful. Rust has done an excellent job at community building, so I give a lot of credence to their approach.
Pine64: Introducing the PinePhone Pro
My former comment (uneditable) was not really getting the mechanism: -g does get the URL, as the expanded option name says (though the explanation says something different), and `ffmpeg -i URL` accepts as input the googlevideo.com URLs. Ok.

Also, the costruct seems to accept input, at least sometimes, from e.g. '-f 137' (mp4 1080), so "very Hi-Res", and '-f 140' (m4a 128kbit), which can be then recombined. So, downloads higher than "720 rasterbars" are in general possible - and they are probably frequent real cases, when one needs to obtain a few frames of very high quality video.

The thing is, it seems to download the initial part anyway. The command takes a lot of time to download, and using e.g. 'iftop' one can see that the command starts downloading immediately, e.g. maybe ~5MB with a '-ss 00:00:10', and ~10MB with a '-ss 00:00:20': the use of '-tt range_end' or '-t duration' will stop downloading at the correct point, but the construct does not really "seek" to the starting point of the video.

Maybe adding some parameter to the URL?
Not sure I'd call Rails an independently wealthy person's 'passion project'. He's wealthy because of his startup, which Rails came from. Rails development happens because Basecamp makes things with it...
It’s shameful for YC to invest in this and blast it onto the front page of HN. Unethical and gross. I wish this site was community driven and not used as an avenue for YC to promote their awful investments.

Yes to all of the above. Although namespacing is not enough, the packages need to be built in a specific way so that they don't put files in any system locations. This isn't anything specific to Ubuntu, this is just how Debian works. If you want to do things "the right way" you're supposed to submit your packages upstream and be patient.

This is not exactly a new problem, it's why Docker is popular, it's why Fedora Silverblue and NixOS exist. It's just not done on the OS level in Debian because in some ways it doesn't really need to be.
There are two ways to get cycles in Haskell.

One is through “tying the knot”. E.g. to create an infinite list of 1,1,1,1,1,…

ones = 1 : ones

This will actually be compiled to a list cell with a pointer back to itself. You can construct more complicated self-referential data structures thanks to laziness.

The other way you could get a cycle is that it actually does have mutable data structures, although their use is restricted so they can’t have any observable mutable effect in pure code. But you have e.g. IORef which is basically a mutable pointer.

If you wanted no cycles you would need to eliminate some subset of laziness, knot-tying transformations, recursion, and any support for mutable data structures. But yes, I think it could be done.
Here’s my subjective suggestion and a list of things I like about it in no particular order:

As someone who has used Django, Rails, and Node, I’d recommend Elixir and Phoenix. Elixir has excellent tooling and dependency management, is functional and therefore easier to write concurrent applications with, it stores threads in private memory and uses the actor model for interprocess communications, and since it is truly concurrent, it is much more scalable than the other options I just mentioned.

Phoenix is a flexible, clean, and easy to use framework with very little, if any, magic. LiveView lets you create things like SPAs, without the use of a front-end JS framework, using standard message passing. Phoenix is also scalable as hell.

One of my favorite things about Elixir and Phoenix is the ability to handle issues in a very atomic way. If you compare an Elixir cluster with a Kubernetes cluster, Elixir is able to handle an issue with tweezers where Kubernetes would handle the same issue with a bulldozer.
Really appreciate this example.
Django fan here, but honest question: is there a Flask admin at least as good as Django admin?

The title is misleading and wrong. "AI" from a specific company(Epic) can't detect sepsis. But technology exists from people that known what they are doing, such as Johns Hopkin's spin-off Bayesian [1], and they have been very successful in detecting Sepsis.

>at Vivaldi, we don’t track or profile you. Nor do we collect usage data. In fact, we believe that the unnecessary collection of data is dangerous and has no place in your browser.

Great. Would be better if you also release Vivaldi's source code to public scrutiny instead of just expecting users to take your word for it.
There are still ads on Netflix and YouTube despite that, but yes I agree it is much more convenient.
I do not fully agree on this statement. Arch uses systemd which cannot be caled "keeping things simple" in my opinion. I think Voidlinux is a bit closer to what you description.
If people are worried that WeChat is scanning their photos without authorization, they should see what their government's doing!
To turn this on it's head, maybe the problem is assuming that everything else in the universe is without consciousness aside from certain classes of matter organized in a particular configuration of a brain. If we instead assume that consciousness is an intrinsic property of all matter and space, then the problem goes away. Or to state it another way, either everything is conscious or nothing is.
Well, that very nearly is the method of power generation. It would presumably be paired with some sort of Dyson sphere around the white dwarf. (Remember that a "Dyson sphere" isn't necessarily a solid shell, but just some configuration of matter where no matter which direction the energy goes it is intercepted by something.)

I've been using Vivaldi for over a year and I am very happy with it. To the point that I find FF inferior when I use it on my old linux machine. I love the customization offered.

Thank you for the product
In defence, that is not the idea of God many people would grow up with.

You're supposed to build the string with $wpdb::prepare[1] before running it through get_results. This will prevent SQLi. It's been available and recommended for like a decade, and any WP code linter will yell at you if you're just building queries out of random concatenated strings.

That 450 miles will also use up the electricity stored in the 60kWh battery. So you'd get one day to travel 450 miles and then either have to plug in to charge, or use the solar panels to regain range. They mention being able to gain a full charge in 2-3 days if stationary, which is impressive. Given the 60kWh battery they must be getting around 20kWh/day from the panels.

It sounds like they are averaging around 60 miles/day on their road trip. Given the regular RV loads they will have for cooking and lighting, in addition to cloud days, it seems like they are fully utilizing their solar gain.
I'm not so close to the investment side of YC (i.e. the real business) because HN takes up all my attention. But I'm usually able to find out specific things that HN wants to know.
I’m not the best reader of scientific papers, but it looks like they used human lung cells and Vero cells. I’m not qualified to speak to the rest of the experimental design, but it looks like they’ve at least avoided that old mistake.

> We analyzed pseudotype entry driven by the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 (SARS-2-S) or the glycoprotein of vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV-G) into the TMPRSS2-positive human lung cell line Calu-3 (7, 29). VSV-G was used as a control, as it does not depend on TMPRSS2 for host cell entry. Besides Calu-3 cells, we further used Vero cells (African green monkey, kidney) as a control, as these cells do not express TMPRSS2, and therefore any reduction in SARS-2-Sdriven entry would be related to either unspecific side effects or cytotoxicity.
What really needs to change is the corporate culture that led a person to think that they would be doing the company a favor by lying to the regulators. This probably goes all the way to the top.

Also, whomever decided that a basic software safety check would be an optional extra with a price tag should definitely not be in the management chain. That's the sort of next quarter profit-only thinking that rots companies from the middle out. That is the kind of thinking that results in your brand new product killing 346 human beings.

This is a great description of my current work. Multiple systems, stacks, and technologies to support. It's just constantly jumping from one thing to the other. It gets even worse when you throw PRD support work in there. The context switching is brutal.

Vivaldi is pretty pro-privacy. Every time Chromium adds a new API with privacy implications, Vivaldi makes a blog post publicly committing to disable or remove it from the version they ship. E.g. the most recent update, the headline feature is disabling the Idle API by default: https://vivaldi.com/blog/vivaldi-gets-more-private-delivers-...

They also had a pretty long post about why FLOC is bad, and I believe have committed to retaining Manifest v2 for extensions.

Other prominent privacy or privacy-adjacent features include a built-in ad-blocker and heavy investment into on-device translation features.

I'm not sure how much work they put into preventing fingerprinting techniques. I don't get the sense it's a high priority.
So lie to your child or completely kill the wonder of the whole thing by telling them this is all just a huge lie they paid for. Seems like just employing a fitter wizard is a better choice.
> Too late to stop Rails going out of favor of developers.

I don't think anyone investing in this aims to restore peak Rails hype, so saying its too late to do that misses the point entirely.
It's fair to criticize this, but it's worth noting that this is how subscriptions work in Google / Apple app stores. You really can't do anything else.
I am not an astronomer or involved in this project but I am crazily nervous and excited for the launch, orbital placement and deployment of this telescope. It seems sooo epochal and important.
This is called a newsletter, and managing a newsletter asks more time and legal measures. So I cannot speak for solene, but that's not likely to happen.
One of the problems with closed models is that any model can be found to train on the 'wrong' data point. So e.g. a chest x ray reader determines that images taken with the machine in ICU indicate sicker patients than elsewhere- that's not useful. If you can't inspect the model to check that, they might claim superior performance, but then the model doesn't work as well as advertised when it's tried out. Other biases might occur as well- for instance you can imagine a 'Greyball for healthcare' with the wrong incentives which recommends a certain drug/therapy more often than it should.
This is totally wrong. The economics of monthly billing are awful, and completely unworkable for a new startup. You have to do annual.

Cost of Install: $7.00, for something this specific
Trial Start Rate: 20%, if paywalled like this app is
Cost Per Trial: $35
Conversion to Trial: 40%
Cost Per Subscriber: $87.50

If they charge you $10/month, they can't get into the black on a new customer for 9 months. They have to eat support costs that whole time. It just doesn't work, when you're starting out. You must charge annual.

Medical licensing cartels charge $500-800 PER MONTH. These guys are trying to charge $100 PER YEAR.

This is an order of magnitude more effective.

Said another way: if someone is too poor for this, they're fucked. They're definitely too poor for any other treatment option. On the other hand, this will open up treatment to people who can't pay the medical cartels.

That's amazing, iterative progress.

Let's give props to these guys for making epic iterative progress, not shit on them because they're not working for free.

> People follow it closely, because these speedups might be a fluke, and as the compiler becomes more compliant, they may disappear (that happened in past with some JITs).

They're not. YJIT is really 100% compatible with regular interpreter MRI and already run a small % of production traffic at Shopify as well as fully pass the gigantic test suite of Shopify's 10+ years old monolith as well as GitHub's test suite.

This is not a fluke, that's what you get by building a JIT directly inside MRI rather than starting from scratch. It's harder and slower, but you get full compatibility from day 1.

If we’re being honest, citizens want them to lie to some extent. The want a visionary president to say they’ll fix all the world problems in a way that is acceptable to their voters. The voters completely ignore than no one person can do much of anything. They will be at the mercy of the government process and the people within. All with competing objectives. But, when asked during a debate, what will you do during your first 100 days in office, you can say “it depends” which would be the honest answer.

That said, lying and weaponizing misinformation are two completely different things. Bill Clinton lied about cheating on his wife. Trump lied every single thing. This is the guy that drew over the Hurricane map because he knew better where the hurricane was heading. When you apply that alternate reality to things like questioning the election results and whatnot it’s quite a different level of dishonesty.

Perceptions about this get distorted by hindsight bias a lot, or whatever the bias is that makes it feel like things are always getting worse. From my perspective the mix is not so different than it used to be, and most of the differences have to do with the ocean we're all swimming in (i.e. the world at large) rather than HN itself.

This isn't a smartphone. It is a server that other people (that you specifically get to target) have to use.

It is your responsibility to verify your supply chain. If you can't do that, maybe you shouldn't operate a website that collects user information.

At least before cloud you would have to set up bare metal services which gave people an idea of what they were actually assembling. The fancy control panels and one click installs have created a group of overly entitled administrators who can't admin and won't take any responsibility for running shit, misconfigured, off the shelf services from companies they didn't even vet.

Was it not possible in ECS? Or did your teams just want to use K8s, and decided they would use the opportunity of wanting to organize things better as a reason to switch? It seems to me that with SSO and IAM you could create virtually any kind of access controls around ECS. K8s doesn't solve the multi-account problem, and federation in K8s can be quite difficult.
Compliments are pleasantries, nothing more, don't stake your reputation on them.

It's just a fact that computer technology has only arrived in the daily life of the greater population a few decades ago

I would question that assertion, depending on how exactly we choose to define "few". Computers have been a fairly ubiquitous part of our society (in developed nations anyway) for a good 40 years or more now. And they've been absolutely ubiquitous for probably a good 30 years... ubiquitous enough that it's hard to see how any person who considers themselves an educated, competent adult wouldn't have had the opportunity to develop some baseline of technical literacy.

Personally I believe that anybody who is a functioning adult in our society today, who doesn't have that technical literacy, lacks it due to their choices not due to their age.
Not sure how to say this without sounding snarky, but how is 200kg cargo capacity over 40km "heavy lift"? That barely qualifies as ultralight for helicopters. Cargo capacities of 4,000 kg over 400km, is considered "medium" for helicopters.
There are entire companies whose business model is to give you an admin panel. You get that for free with Django.
I have no idea where that substrate, or whatever, came from, or 'who' created it.

I wasn't trying to answer that.

I'm aware that my comment merely added an additional layer, between us and "the creator"/creation, (however you define that).

My point was more, that I don't believe our universe is unique, as in "alone". But rather that it is just one of many.

That some "God", or event, didn't create a single universe, perfect for (human) life. That's way too antropocentric for me.

Instead I believe that they are plentiful, and by chance one of them happened to be suitable for life as we know it.

We are not here because a universe _was created for us_.

We are here because a universe _could produce us_.
I just downloaded the Android app to check, and it's a similar ratio as you describe for the Apple app store: £19.99 per month if paid monthly, but £7.17 per month (as £85.99 per year) if paid annually.

And on my phone at least, the monthly payment option is also hidden behind a scroll down action: https://i.imgur.com/rV0bMTH.jpg, with the yearly subscription already selected by default.

It would seem they're pushing quite strongly this annual payment option.

One of my more radical opinions in this area is the idea that it should be illegal to sell a closed and proprietary ML model for areas of public safety, specifically in hospitals and in courts/jails. The public’s interest in transparency in such matters trumps the company’s copyrights. Trained experts get a chance to inspect every drug and every medical device that’s used; why shouldn’t they get to see how a ML model used in a hospital was trained?

Yes. Pretty much all the symptoms of ADHD are things that everyone experiences from time to time. People with ADHD just experience them far, far more often, in a way that often negatively impacts their career and relationships. And their lives tend to get better after being diagnosed, as they can start using meds and learning ADHD-specific organisation strategies.
