That's the same as making unlicensed prints from a manipulated copy. That's a copyright violation. The physical world doesn't protect you from that either. You need to sue either way.
Ask HN: No Code GUI Tools?
Is there a flexible, on prem, platform that would allow one to create simple guis to query a series of internal REST APIs and databases?

The idea would be to give non-technical people the power to get at data that is available without having to program custom GUIs.
This is a good point, the ratio increases both ways.
So I have found if you put your origin behind cloudfront and set it to not cache you can get similar if not better performance since you have low latency at the edge and the benefit of shared tcp connection for all assets with the origin… the last part means using http2 and serving up your assets on the same domain as the origin….
I was thinking that at first and was originally going to suggest that, then I realised there’s a similar stereotype in the UK despite the mixed land use.

This sounds like the Azure cross-region load balancer: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/load-balancer/cross-r...

"Cross-region IPv6 frontend IP configurations aren't supported." -- sigh.

It would be an interesting experiment to see what is the cheapest set of VM-like workloads that can be spun up in every region...
This is excellent analysis, thank you
Not if jobs in the US keep paying as they have been. If you can work remotely then the US makes most sense from an income perspective.

i think you are underestimating reputation, legitimacy, and community.

sometimes this metadata matters, other times it doesnt at all. its just a handshake between two people.

relationships matter. if you mess up your metadata, rugpull your audience, remint the same works, break the trust with your audience, thnen your not gonna have a good time. but if you understand your community, be transparent and giving, and participate, you will have much stronger connections with others.

nft critics ironically cant see past the money.
Given that it is on Ethereum, you will be spending more on the gas fees than on the platform itself. Wasting more money than you initially put in.

It is metaverse hype. Definitive edition.
IMO, that should not even be possible. Browsers need to start being user agents again.
As long as noone else is able/willing to match pay - kinda. In Poland for example normal pay is $5K but for US startups you can get $10K. Only TikTok or Switzerland has offers in this range.
Except that developers from countries that earn on average less than their US counterparts have an incentive to work for a US company remotely but a developer from the US does not have many incentives to work for less for a company abroad
Hi Steve, I read through

https://twitter.com/search?q=from%3A%40brendaneich%20mozilla...

and wondered which ones you meant. If I burned a bridge I should try to rebuild, let me know.

If you mean the ones about Mozilla holding back tracking protection while Monica Chew was there, or the ones about Mitchell's ridiculous salary, then we must disagree on "burning bridges". I'm not going back to Mozilla, and even if I hoped to, I see no reason to lie or self-censor about bad things they did after I left.
Thanks, the more I understand this, the less I like it.

I'm still not seeing the usefulness but I see a lot of potential problems and complications from redesigning your codebase like this. I work with pandas dataframes all the time. It really looks like they're forcing a functional paradigm in a place where it doesn't fit well.
> The Neo-Andean architecture that has sprung up in Bolivia during Evo Morales’ Socialist presidency has also offered a colorful glimpse at something very different to what we think of as “contemporary” without being hidebound. An example:

I find that this specific example feels cheap and gives a "made of plastic" impression. I would rather have the big blocks of concrete than that, because both feel hollow but at least the blocks of concrete feel "honest".
> WSL doesn't run the full slew of linux processes and uses the same memory space, so both CPU and memory utilisation is much lower than a VM.

Well, I thought this was the case with WSL, but that WSL2 changed this, such that it's really just a full-blown VM now. Are you saying that you're still using WSL 1, or have I misunderstood the nature of WSL2?
I've heard that overwhelming majority of US companies pay adjusted salary to remote workers depending on their location.
I don't believe the US has a monopoly on talent.

The US has a monopoly on being able to go to market.

US corporations are extremely efficient getting funds, putting that capital to work, and deliver a product people want to buy.

Historically they got that advantage because (among other factors) their internal market is HUGE, and successful US products were also appealing in other countries.

As I said there are other factors as well (regulations, overseas taxation, and exports to name a few).
> But seriously, there is a question of whether Apple won the mobile device battle because they were brilliant and revolutionary, or whether Microsoft has lost the mobile device battle because they were dumb as a bag'o'hammers and quit improving their platform for entire years.

There was more at the time than just Apple and Microsoft. iPhone also quickly supplanted Palm and Blackberry and assorted feature phones. Android was not yet out, but after seeing iPhone Google completely redesigned Android to be much more iPhone-like.

So it seems it either has to be Apple really did do something brilliant and revolutionary, or everyone else was dumb as a bag'o'hammers.
As an American who lives abroad, I specifically chose to leave because it's a place riddled with corruption, has a rigged justice system, whose political climate stifles free speech, is totally unaffordable in any of the urban centers, and has a depressingly incompetent bureaucracy on the local/state level (I'm looking at you, San Francisco...).
Why would you trade support for an artist? Do you really think that people want to trade support for an artist? Like "I don't really want to get credit for this artist any longer, so now I sell it for profit!"? How does that make sense? And then the next guy who paid me for it, why didn't he just support the artist directly instead of giving me a cut? It is all just stupid.

> That's not machine readable and it needs action from the original artist.

That is the whole point, I donate to the artist and the artist shows me gratitude by performing an action for me, like including my name in his videos!
Currently the "value" is determined by hype and speculation. The more NFT (or whatever replaces that idealogically) is accepted into the society, the more "real" uses it will have and whatever real (non-pump-and-dump-JPEGs) use it has will stabilize its value when the hype ends.
There are plenty of labor sourcing companies who will happily do all the paperwork (and take on the legal risk) for you to hire someone in a foreign country, but in fact you pay the labor company some fixed hourly rate, and they hire the worker as an employee.

It's a good model, because then when the laws of the foreign country change to say "Women's average salaries must match mens" or "Workers shall be paid 2x rate on religious holidays" or "Employers shall pay extra tax for hiring people over the age of 62 years old"... All those cases can be dealt with by the foreign company who knows the local laws and customs.

Using forums vs. Discord: why not both
I've seen a trending post on HN about the disavantages of using Discord vs a Forum.
Coincidentally I've been working on a solution for that in the past weeks that allows you to create a mirrored version of your Discord server as an online forum.

Original thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29154216
Cython is much easier to implement than people realize. A few import statements and a few types, and then you're good to go. I urge people to give it a try. The speedups can be dramatic.
WSL2 doesn't support sharing part of a disk yet, it's all or nothing.
The point is "proof of ownership" of what.

The misconception seems to be that people think the owned content is inlined in the blockchain, when it more often is a URL in the NFT / on the blockchain. Hence, the proof of ownership is contextual around what content existed at the URL at the time of minting, which might change if the controller of the URL changes the content after minting.
I also had the idea to apply these kind on ideas about nonhierarchical file organisation to music or photo library organisation, and really wish there was a file system level support.
Some NFT platforms also support credit cards. But, I'd rather buy art in a way that doesn't include exploitative third parties that take a significant cut (Stripe, Shopify, PayPal, currency exchange fees when paying an artist in another country, etc).

For reference, the last NFT I purchased on Hicetnunc.xyz had a protocol fee of 0.002947 XTZ (around 1¢ USD) and a platform fee of 2.5%, the rest of the sale went directly to the artist's wallet.

To your second point; this remains to be seen—society can place value on many different abstract concepts, "ink on paper" may not be the only valuable vehicle for art and culture.
>Compare corruption in NYC to India or Thailand or Romania :)

Corruption in Romania and other Eastern European countries is more generalized in the sense that there is more small corruption. Corruption cases in US are more serious.
.NET 6 has been in prerelease for a while, and it's the next LTS release. Makes sense that it would be used as soon as it was available. Upgrading from 5 to 6 should be pretty trivial.
The EU has a similarly sized internal market, but it's consistently self-sabotaging on many levels (EU, countries, state, local) so does not realize a lot of the benefits it could get.
What about a big boat?
> Have you ever had to do modify how it runs?

No I haven't modified its behavior beyond a few of the common preferences in the settings page.
Artists have had Patreon and donation pages and art sales without any sort of nft. The nft just provides a speculation scam to attach to a url pointing to a piece of art. The speculation scam is the problem. Its selling to suckers who think they can resell for more money to other suckers.

I know of a former comic artist that couldn't crowdfund 15k for a comic book but made hundreds of thousands of dollars on nfts of monkeys with zero artistic merit and a lot of generative type work.

Its just a scam with people trying to get in on the ground floor thinking it's the new Bitcoin.

I think speculation scams should be illegal
A bit more L3 cache, then remove physical RAM entirely - boom, M1-like memory on chip

Being introverted isn't the same as social anxiety. I do agree that it seems that way on parts of reddit though (there are also completely socially oblivious people that perhaps are even unable to suffer social anxiety).

That people suffer from it is no wonder when you go from one purity spiral to the next one but that is certainly something large social media companies reproduce at least involuntarily.
Because for some reason people think Windows is a good desktop experience.
Corporately managed desktops/notebooks within Active directory with various security and automation settings applied. (If that sounds scary, to you, well... I have actually better piece of mind for my work laptop than home. As a bonus, I get to know the applied configurations as I was one of responsible to implement them). Yet, powering up wsl to start node application and fiddle around if necessary. To me it sounds great.

Ofcourse, node can be configured on windows too. But then you need different docker commands/builds and docker desktop now is not free for everyone, etc.

By the way, playing around with docker build for npm app within WSL, I happened to npm install the vulnerable ua-parser-js version. Security gave me a call and we were relieved that it was within windows-wsl-docker instance. So after validation, no compromise within upper layers. This was actually an eye-opener for me that, given the threats of npm and stuff, gave some serious bonus points for jumping into docker-fan-bandwagon.

Running VM takes more hassle (but is ofcourse an option). Setting up WSL and playing around was very easy. And you don't have to think about forwarded ports and mapping file system. And running "code ." within WSL felt good - vscode poped up locally but terminal/code is actually on WSL. And you get to browse your localhost on Windows that is actually on linux. Doable on VM, but then one needs to know how to configure ssh, passwordless auth.

If you are Linux-first user, yeah, maybe you don't see value. But think about it - this is also introducing windows folks to Linux!
You say that, but what you do like about the desktop environment on Windows more? Of course we don't need a battle of desktops, just curious about what you've tried and didn't like on the Linux side. (I abandoned Windows in 2000, and have hated the limitations Windows desktop I've tried since, up through Windows 10.)
That's misleading as normal type annotations don't give you any performance benefit at all and you may need to do a lot more than just add type annotations.

I think it's far more accurate to say that Cython is a programming language of its own that is a hybrid of Python and C++, that happens to produce CPython extension modules when compiled.

The performance benefits are really achieved by incrementally changing your Python code to something that looks a lot more like C(++).

This is also reflected in the Cython documentation which literally mentions the "Cython language".

Cython is great as an alternative to writing C extension modules for performance reasons or to creating bindings to libraries written in C or C++. It's not so great just to make Python applications faster as it's not fully compatible[1].

It's not really expensive, since you're mainly re-drawing lines on the road, removing a lane for cars (or reducing parking area) and adding a lane for e-bikes. The bonus is that it encourages more e-bike use and reduces vehicle pressure.
Those middle-man companies charge extraordinary margins. I don't know whether that is warranted. But you could pay $150/hr and get $15hr developer. Something's wrong with that math. I think that's because of lack of competition, basically they charge as much as possible and pay as little as possible, because they can.
Ok, thanks, good to know.
this gives a tiny sliver of credibility to stories about people focusing really hard for really long on imagining tumors being eaten by their immune system and this actually happening. used to sound like total crap, now... just crap? it'd be amazing if it wasn't.
No but it would be very straightforward to do something like what the OP does, and then instead of using tail you just pipe the grep result for PWD into fzf. Which has some advantages: all commands instead of last n, plus of course the killer feature which is fuzzy matching.
Landing AI brings in $57M for its machine learning operations tools
Neither :-). WSL2 runs a full-blown machine but the startup process is considerably different from that of a real machine with a real Linux installation, so when you "start up" a WSL2 shell, it's spawned in seconds, you're already logged in and so on. It's essentially the WSL1 presentation format but with a different back-end.
I'm sure you can automate this.
Ask HN: How do you meet devs in the middle about 'fun' team names?
I've been in several organizations where the developers have chosen fun or silly team names, rather than names that actually describe what they do.

I think it results in a lot of confusion within the organization and additional onboarding friction for new hires.

On the flip side, I acknowledge that it can be a morale booster and gives teams a way to express themselves.

Is there a way to meet in the middle here, or do you just have to weigh the pros and cons and choose fun vs. functional team names?
NFTs are letters patent issued by NSA (Non-State Actor), which perhaps makes them just letters.
My corporate desktop is behind. We're running a build of Windows 10 that doesn't even support WSL2. We're going to have to wait until next year's hardware refresh to get Windows 11, but I don't know if they'll allow us to enable it. All it would take is for one person to point out how it's basically another machine running on the same hardware, and my IT department would probably freak out and demand that we install all the anti-virus and "endpoint protection" software on it.
The "flexible" approach does work, but tends to be quite a drain on workers lives. Theres always someone somewhere who has to wake up at 2am for the weekly 'sync' meeting, or who doesn't see their children after school because their calendar is clogged with 1:1 meetings with all their USA reports most evenings.

I guess it is the answer for how to get paid for at least some aspiring artists...
Again, you’re patronizing people outside the US telling them that they should be happy with lower salary. US tech workers have their healthcare paid in addition to their high compensation. Someone earning 120k in London might earn $350k in the US. It’s not up to you to tell the little Europeans that they shouldn’t want their missing $230k because their healthcare and public services make up for it.
Rebranding the company already happened.

Perhaps the rebranding was timed to take some political pressure off $FB. Or perhaps it is "Cortez burning the ships" to focus the efforts of the entire company so there is no going back.
WSL2 still runs instantly. I haven't been bothered with waiting. I tried wsl --shutdown and then opening wsl - didn't take a second. Cold boot may have been longer, but I don't remember being bothered with startup times. However older powershell console startup time did bother me for sure.
I was going to assume the OP lived somewhere with meaningful gun regulations, so hammers.

The Hollywood portrait of love has done a lot of damage to young people the world over. Believing things like "love at first sight" or that it's healthy to "do anything to get the person you want", "never give up", for example. Or that there's always the "one" person who you're destined to find, and if you don't it's somehow a failure of yours.

Incredibly frustrating beliefs that I suffered myself in my youth. Just hope young people today can see love for what it is: chemicals in the brain, mostly instinctive. Most of what makes it work is unconscious, too... your smell (not your freaking perfume, but your natural smell) may disgust, or arouse a potential partner, for example... same with things you have zero control over, like the shape of your chin or ears, the length of your legs, how symmetrical your face is, the way you walk and talk (you can change that, maybe, but not easy)... It's cruel, but no, if the other person doesn't "like" you, don't waste your time and health trying to make them fall for you - they just won't. Just like you can't control who you yourself "like", it just happens (and it's unfortunate that almost everyone seems to "like" the same few attractive people around... if you're not one of them, understand that as soon as possible to avoid being hurt! And try to be happy with other non-perfect people you can find that also understand that).

It is possible to find a mountain bike for $2K. However, if you are serious about it $6K is probably a more reasonable starting point.
You're forgetting that car lanes & parking spaces on sides of roads can be re-drawn to fit e-bikes and reduce overall car use (which is the goal anyways).
No, not the prekeys. I meant the triple DH itself.

I think my comment/question might of been confused. It appears that in practice Signal only uses prekeys to start things off. The prekeys are just signed chunks of the triple DH just stored somewhere for a time. So from that I conclude that Signal does in fact use signatures just like any other public key messaging system. The issue is fundamental after all...

If we're doing cryptography, then why go through the blockchain at all then? I could sell the original private key I used to sign the picture to somebody, and they can prove their ownership all day long. I don't see the value add of a fancy database.
Like I wrote, for example Nelson Mandela lived in the same period and had much more impact.

> My bet is that he will be remembered as a capital figure for putting half of the planet on a smartphone

He may be remembered for that, but that's because people's poor ability to assess real impact. Similarly, far more people know about Elon Musk than about Norman Borlaug - with the latter being much more impactful.
We’re talking avatars. IRL I can tell at a glance if a Gucci is really a Nucci or a pleather fake.

I think the whole “evil white person” demeans the effort to be inclusive. Nobody is saying white men are evil when they hire a diverse candidate. They are just valuing having a diverse workplace over traditionally looked at traits.
If your desktop environment is Windows, but an open source project you want to contribute to supports Linux more naturally, but Windows is more tricky to get up and running. It is easier with the support VS code has for the integration with WSL2. I can develop in a Windows environment, but run tests and build on Linux.
