> There is no equivalent of this today.

I started using computers much more recently, but wouldn't any OS that boots into a TTY provide a pretty similar experience? I'm genuinely curious since I've never used a Commodore or BASIC. Is that environment much different from bash or another shell?
Great leap forward
> Let's make bets on how long it takes before the C&D hammer comes down hard on them.

Hey, free publicity. News regarding C&D hammering tends to spread like wildfire in the open-source community. A boatload of publicity for a meager name change? That's a steal.
To begin, I am not pro-Huawei or pro-China. I am just trying to make an impartial point. While the US can ban Huawei using the national security excuses, the other countries and regions such as Canada, UK, and European countries, South Korea, and Japan can use the same logic to ban American tech companies such as Intel, Microsoft, Google, Facebook etc. with the same national security reason, given that the US has spied on Germany and other European countries as well [1]. The other countries simply cannot afford to have their core infrastructure to be controlled by American tech giants. It does not bode well for American tech industry if the US closes its door and bans Huawei. The US only has more to lose if it goes down that route.

You can make 8% or so with USDC on a platform like Nexo, that’s what I do now. There’s more risk because it’s not FDIC insured but the rates are too attractive for me not to take advantage of it.

You're pissing into a hurricane. Complaining of victim blaming at the slightest opportunity will persist so long as it is rewarded with up-votes.

Agreed!

Having a built-in Data Explorer is clutch. You can get visibility into your database without having a Ph.D in computer science. It's beautiful.

Hi, My name is Mitch and right now I'm looking for a React developer role. I have some experience with React but I believe the best way to learn is by doing. Hence I am looking for a full or part time role that primarily is developing with React. Feel free to reach out to me!
Yes, building an accelerator would have economic benefits for whatever location is chosen as the site. This could be built in Japan (as the paper mentions, it may build the ILC) or even the US.
I think you sort of beg the question on whether or not similar barriers still exist.

My assertion is that for raw performance and capability, computers have gotten more financially accessible. However, for creative activities, things are still difficult. In many ways, more so?

That is, consumption has never been cheaper. Creation, though, remains relatively high. Probably still lower than ever, but still prohibitively high.

As a fun example, I remember coding fractals as a kid. I cannot think of how to do that right off, anymore. And I don't remember when I lost the knowledge of how to do this. :(
Even as a native French speaker who is used to read obtuse political books from French intellectuals of the last century I find him absolutely abhorrent to read.

My main complain is that he ascribed to the notion that it is more important to have the "right" political impact than to seek the truth. That and the fact that he was a pedophile, but I digress.
Your first idea sounds great and very close o some ideas I've been thinking a lot about. If you ever get somewhere with it, please post a Show HN!

On your second, I immediately thought of Fabulous, a package that uses the Elm Architecture to build Xamarin cross platform apps in F#. [1] Have you seen it before?

It's just easier to avoid discussions. It's stupid that people who can be completely rational about most things become someone different around certain topics. Spending most of my time in a county in CA that 55-60% are pro conspiracy theory, it's just easier to avoid certain topics.
Cisco also owns IOS operating system. and I seem to recall the Apple is paying/paid them millions for the name. Was that part of the settlement or separate? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cisco_IOS

duckduckgo looks pretty legit domain to search chicken :D

Chicken sashimi is almost (but not in law) prohibited (except limited area) by Japanese health center but it still served because of those restaurants are stupid. They constantly produce ill customer. To be fair, most restaurants won't serve raw chickens.

Speaking about limited area, Kyushu produces very clean chickens that considered to very low risk to eat in raw (Torisashi). They are allowed by local health center.
Our society is built around evening activities. People work during the day and socialize at night. Socialization is easier when the sun is out.
I still don't get where LXC/LXD shine. Is there a killer application for this tech?
Gauche scheme is a very "scripting-focussed" implementation, with some niceties inspired from scsh. I've used it's repl as a shell of sorts for a short while, just to see if I could.

Janet is a new lisp (heavily inspired by Lua, not surprising given its author had previously started fennel, a lisp which compiles to Lua) which fits a smiliar "scripting" niche. An extension has been made for it (janetsh) to make it suitable as a shell replacement.

In a similar vein, racket has rash.

And if you consider tcl as a "lisp for strings", then it's almost a shell right out of the box. I've used jimtcl (again, like gauche, with a heavily customised shell-focussed lib of my own) as an interactive shell.

Lot's of choices out there, if one is willing to roll one's sleeves up ;-)

> It reminds me I recently had a company ship me a laptop with Win on it. I turned it on and logged in and the CPU was just a madhouse with Edge and 2 tabs open. What is the CPU even _doing_??? Does the company mine crypto on company laptops for cash flow... or, what?

Even in a VM, Windows is constantly doing things in the background, whether it's touching the disk, burning CPU cycles, or making network connections. The background services are both numerous and opaque, so who knows what it's actually doing.
Wow! Do you know what the lizard species is called? I would love to read more on that.
> And when the position was filled I at least sent a 1 line email to the remaining candidates just to let them know that we weren't moving forward.

What a great idea - I wish more hiring managers and companies would consider something similar, rather than the standard "ghosting" approach where they simply stop responding to any attempts at communication.

Or the ever-popular "sorry for the delay - we're still moving forward [on interviewing other candidates to see if we can get someone cheaper/better than you], but [lame excuse] came up so we'll definitely get back to you in two weeks [or ghost you then at our convenience.]"
In most of those countries the transaction fee is a non-trivial percentage of the GDP. Using it as a currency there would be economic suicide. And the volatility would be crushing to the poor.

They'd be infinitely better off with like USDC or better yet, a USD issued CBDC.
In general I do enjoy technical PR blog posts and also in this one I found interesting bits.

What disturbed me was, that the title said "web developer tools secrets", while in the text it is specifically microsoft edges web developer tools.

This style of language I do not like so much. There is too much agenda in it, in my taste. As this seem to imply, there are only one web dev tools - the ones that comes bundled with your windows OS. (Microsoft does have a history)

Now it seems, the edge dev tools are allmost identical to chrome dev tools, so I might have assumed more ill intent, than what was actually there, as most web devs use one or the other.

But it is still not clear to me, what of the posts information apply only to edge for example. What to chrome. And what would also work in firefox. All of them have web dev tools.

I don’t remember Delphi ever being cheap, although you could perhaps get academic versions or gimped personal editions.

About Delphi 2 released 1996: “List price is $2000 for the Client/Server Suite, $500 for the Desktop version, and $800 for the Developer version. Street prices are usually about half the list price, and upgrade prices are even better. Support options are described the Supportability section of this review.” — https://www.thekompany.com/review-of-delphi-2-from-borland/

Prices went up from there over the years, and Embarcadero are now acting more like Oracle when it comes to trying to enforce their rules (I had a friend get an incredibly rude and nasty call from Embarcadero, regardless that he was a super fan, and he had already been paying many thousands to be fully licensed. I have never personally seen a professional company treat a paying professional client so poorly - seriously avoid Embarcadero.)

Somewhere, an ex-Nortel production engineer is nodding with delayed satisfaction.
No, because there is no graphics in a tty. Something as simple as a dragon curve would be relatively difficult to get going nowadays.

That is, this is certainly close. But still a far cry from the environments we used to have.

I remember typing in screensaver style programs from magazines. Closest I know today would be Wireframe magazine and how it uses pygame zero. Which is awesome, but I don't know a computer that boots to that.

It's an approximation to named parameters, yes. JavaScript doesn't support them.
There is an obvious flaw, which is that someone could die between the time voter registration for the election is finalized and when ballot is submitted. The fact that you ignore this suggests that you are not discussing this in good faith.
Yep, this is something I think Python got very right that parameter names are part of the user-facing API of every callable.

This is also one of the reasons Lightning is not a viable scaling solution. If you don't get your LN channel open soon, you'll be waiting until the year 2120. This will also of course consume 100% of the remaining block reward and almost a trillion dollars in electricity.

That, and the quadratic routing complexity.
This is not true. I know several doctors who prescribe exactly this. The issue is patients. Patients throw a hissy fit when told to lose weight, exercise, improve diet, etc.

90% of the time they want something that can be done while sitting on their ass, like an injection or a brace.
Hah this thread is perfect. I just finished building my new four axis robot arm design. It’s all open source. Three months ago I started playing with a new planetary gearbox concept, where the first stage is in the middle with second stages on both sides. The first sun is driven by a shaft that goes through a hole in the second stage sun. The result is a very balanced joint design with parallel outputs. A good configuration for weak materials like plastic. And then the gearboxes and the frame are all integrated together, so this is not something where you assemble a gearbox and bolt it to the frame. The gearbox members and the frame members are unified.

I’m very happy with it so far! Video here:

https://twitter.com/tlalexander/status/1455320442642714625?s...

It’s open source, CC0 licensed. Please fork the design files here!

EDIT: you may prefer to watch the project and wait to fork it until I have fleshed out a few more things. In that case feel free to star this git repo and I will update it as I make progress.

Why would you make a boolean parameter also an optional?
Yeah I’d rather hold assets for anything I don’t have a possibility of immediately needing. Even with more volatile assets like stocks, generally I can expect that it will be worth more at some point in the not too distant future than today, whereas cash is always worth less.

As a result I intentionally have 0 cash savings. Enough to live on for 2-3 months in my checking account, plus I have available credit for emergencies, everything else goes into assets I can expect to appreciate in high single digits worst case. If anything I feel like most people have a much less aggressive allocation than they can probably afford to (although I also have little debt, just a car loan, and a relatively low cost of living which makes this easier)

It's more than an overlap: I would argue that there really is a _spectrum_ of interaction wants and needs.

On one end, you have people with no vision at all. Some of them prefer extremely high speech rates. Others do not. Some may additionally have other interaction limitations (motor control, etc).

Then, you have sighted people who cannot look at a screen at the moment — e.g. because they are driving a car, because their device is at some distance, or because the device doesn't even have a screen.

You have sighted people who get tired reading long form text, or who need text read back to them as they type to support their spelling.

So screen readers are absolutely not a one size fits all product. Even Apple provides a ton of user configurable choices for their screen reader.
I can't see how passing it in as an object property fixes any of those issues.
Buy and hold gme. Got it
Wait, so your contention is that a profession is defined by its worst practitioners? OK, in that case, software developers are all script kiddies.
China's emissions per capita are still almost half the US

With corporations it's more like DLP, antivirus, firewall, and nonstop keylogging.
Have you decided on a specific idea or are you interested in the space generally?

I've been following the space pretty closely for few years now (tried most of the HW, doing development, etc). Right now the greatest number of users and app sales seems to be at the low-ish end but not absolute low end ($300 Quest), and I'd strongly recommend most developers wanting to jump into the space target that as a baseline.

Most Cardboard/GearVR/Daydream devices aren't actively used so the unit sales paint a misleading picture, and due to those devices' limited input mechanisms apps targeting that segment basically require a totally different UI design than apps targeting the slightly higher-end segment with the larger (and growing) number of active users.

Of course I could imagine exceptions here, so apologies in advance if you have some specific application in mind where the above factors aren't important.
Over the past few months, I've been trying to contribute to the rust ecosystem to enable devs to make webapps comfortably.

The latest challenge I've been addressing is auto generating react hooks to use Rust API endpoints. I'm just about ready to publish it soon. These kinds of things are much easier to do in rust rather than other languages.

If you'd like to explore web development in rust:

Carriers will begin decommissioning their 4G networks in the next few years to cut operating costs and free up spectrum.
Sure. A good C compiler for free was a real advance.

But in the 80s a parent didn't need to be unusually clueful to guess that for a kid wanting Turbo C, it'd be a good bet as an investment in their future -- not like a kid's phone or tablet now.
I am trying to look at this rationally: how is this not similar to protesting in the middle of a shooting range? You have high speed bodies coming your way that might not stop.

I am sorry but I will find it reasonable and I am sure I will react the same personally, and bolt (in a car or not) if a number of people start throwing stuff at me and have visibly aggressive intentions. That is the natural self-preservation reaction of fight or flight. And if you are already running, it is likely you are going to take the flight option -- this is biology and evolution.

Thus according to the article: are you damned if you stay and get lynched, damned if you drive away?

Also, I thought it was a fact that the main danger for a majority of police officers and workers was oncoming traffic collisions -- that is why there are laws requiring drivers to slow down and change lanes when seeing the visible emergency lighting of vehicles on the side of the street! And still people get hit and die regularly.

Finally, a legal and insurance fun fact (at least in some states): if you take actions to block a road (in a vehicle or not), you are deemed responsible for an accident if it occurs. This is called traffic obstruction (quick google: https://www.princelawfirm.net/whos-responsible-for-an-accide...). Please read the law and be objective as a journalist.
In a similar vein you can right click on any logged value that's pretty printed in color and save it to a global variable to play around with. (console.log("foo", foo) works with this, console.log("foo"+foo) doesn't)
> This becomes pretty farcical when you realise they are still allowed to use it for 4G (and indeed most 5G configurations bands 4G+5G signals together)

No, it is not a purely political farce. There is a fundamental architectural difference (that amounts to a technical one as well) that translates into a reason why 4G deployments are more «secure» as opposed to 5G deployments.

Unlike in 4G, where the data that is tunneled through the core network is always encrypted, 5G allows for encrypted tunnels to get terminated near 5G base stations to enable the mobile edge computing amongst other reasons. Server equipment that is deployed at the 5G base station site then can take an advantage of the substantially decreased latency for latency sensitive workloads (ehrm, 5G enabled Doom/Quake, anyone?). AWS have a product, Wavelength, that does precisely that, and I am pretty confident there are other telcos/products doing the same.

4G, on the other hand, never terminates encrypted tunnels and passes them through the core network unchanged. Therefore, retaining the potentially compromised 4G core network equipment alongside the 5G one is somewhat «safer» – in the sense that at least the unencrypted email etc traffic won't leak out. Especially considering that 4G is on the way out (medium to long term), hence there is no need to rush and start pouring massive amounts of money into replacing/decommissioning the 4G equipment now, although it might speed up the demise of 4G in the UK and other countries.
