Engineers often overlook the fact that most of such deals still closed by old-school sales force I suppose. So if you'd like to have a scaling service business maybe you should hire someone with sales skills?
You do not need to trust third parties to keep you private and not track your every move, which is awesome.

The only way to avoid third parties to run your own server ... but this "metasearch engine" is basically just an aggregation proxy. So every search can still be tracked back to your proxy server by Google, Bing or whoever is providing the actual results.
There is, and it’s turned on. Still doesn’t work unless I leave OneDrive open. “Just works.”
I also gave up on competitive games right about the time everything switched to matchmaking. For all its faults, the old way of just joining servers manually led to a lot of community servers where you could actually get to know the other regulars. When you know the people you're playing with winning and losing aren't nearly as important to your enjoyment. You end up going to the server not because you're chasing a high, but because you just kinda like hanging out with people. Regulars talk to each other about their life, movies they just saw, Harry Potter lore, whatever. It's like a virtual pub.
Dirty tricks were routine back then.

I agree. I don't like receiving more than 1 voice message per week from a person. It's terrible when they start sending voice messages as 50% or more of their messages.

- Text messages require brevity.

- Depending on who you're talking to, Voice messages ramble on and on, without getting to the point. As a result, it can take minutes to understand a main point, rather than seconds as in the case of text message.

Just learned via another comment that playback can apparently be sped up to 1.5x or 2x. That's good, I'll have to look into that.

I think HN is very different from Reddit, in the sense that I don’t think is addictive at all (for me).

HN doesn’t have infinite scroll, doesn’t have infinite pages with different posts. And that’s what I think would make something addictive. You keep finding new content, without leaving the site, as long as you want, until you get some reward.

On HN I have to reload the page to see something new. And I would have to keep reloading the page for several minutes until I happen to see one new post in the front page.

I want to keep up with everything that gets to the front page all I have to do is come back every hour. With a good chance of keeping up with everything checking just every 6 hours or so.

There is no way to mindless get new content in front of you.

Even keeping up with new comments is hard.

HN is no where near Reddit and other social media sites in addictiveness.
Yes, my 13” 2016 Pro has this problem and only has two left side ports. It chews through batteries about once every 18 months. It’s been really annoying.

Prehistoric practices were relatively sustainable because population was extremely low compared to today. It's perfectly fine to cut down some forest to feed your village, it's not a problem as long as global population is less than a hundred million people.
a lot of iOS apps will use certificate pinning so this avoids having to bypass that. the disadvantage is you can't easily modify requests. i actually have an extension to mitproxy that pulls the secrets from keylog file and then performs an MITM attack on the connection based on that. this way you can modify requests without trusting an evil root certificate. but you do need the key material either via keylog file or via an attack on TLS key sharing (like solving DLP on EC). also i've only implemented this for TLS1.2.
Let's just call it what it is, HN is stocked full of people who are smart enough to know better before being placated by a nobody with 20MM in debt trying to profit off of us ostensibly by using our community as a soap box. Do not forget this is a community built on VC.

In my opinion, there is zero tech in Richard, he's all suit. Someone who wanted to be a CEO, and now they're a CEO on full display.
First off, I have no ideas, just questions.

Have you tested your writing? project titles, readme, docs, etc?

I learned to test everything. Basically SEO, but for good.

I've done UI design, technical writing, ad copy, and so forth. Draft project plans, press releases, headlines. I've spent a ridiculous amount of time naming things, crafting pose, framing, messaging, etc. I even obsess over my trolling, sharpening my zingers.

I just scanned your repos. Know that I am not your target audience. So I have no direct feedback. At least none that should be trusted.

Your project for running C++ in a browser, via WASM, is the one I'd be most curious about. My guess is that's the one with the broadest appeal.

I'd compare your written artifacts with similar projects. Push and poke it every way you can think of. Stuff like dropping each project's keywords and phrases into google to assess discoverability.

I'd also test your writing on everyone you can. Peers, non-peers, randos. Both native English and German speakers.

IIRC, didn't @danluu do something about naming repos? I'm probably misremembering.

FWIW, for my last FOSS project, I spent a bit more time on writing than programming. Roughly 55/45 split. (I logged my time on that project. I was curious.)

Lastly, testing writing is in addition to all the other good suggestions. "Yes and", not "Ya but".

Happy hunting.

> I see that more frequently on the content mills that noone wants

Some of those Wikipedia-republishing SEO spam sites seem to take the English Wikipedia and then auto-translate that into other languages instead of directly mirroring each country's native Wikipedia. At least they're good for a laugh because whatever translation provider they're using still tends towards those hilariously literal translations that no longer happen that frequently with Google.
I edited the hosts file on my Mac to send all these sites to 127.0.0.1... doing something means you're quite likely to know how to reverse it too though, hence why I'm writing this comment during the working day.
Turkey bans citizens from Syria, Yemen and Iraq from flying to Minsk
I am curious if you could use flywheels instead of batteries like the gyrobus (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gyrobus) used in the 1950s in switzerland. The biggest problem they had was the change in direction in sharp corners that shouldn't be the case for trains. Especially with the advancement in flywheel technology like suspending them in a vacuum.
The drawback is that it does require 3 times interpolation.
With neares-neighbour interpolation that is not obvious from the example, but it's there.

Each interpolation step causes loss of resolution and the multiple passes might in practice make it slower due to increased memory bandwidth requirements compared to a single pass algorithm.

That of course doesn't take away that it's an interesting trick to know about.

The ACT Legislative Assembly's Standing Committee on Justice and Community Safety has repeatedly raised the issue of access to standards, as have other state parliaments like WA. Little has been done about it, even though they're asking for something as minimal as providing access to standards via public libraries. Apparently there was a COAG working group looking at the problem but they've seemingly achieved little, and they're not even aiming very high to begin with.

Hi, I created inlets out of a need to get HTTPS and TCP tunnels behind firewalls and tricky network conditions. I also needed first-class integration with Kubernetes and containers to be available.

Today I've relaunched the docs website to be clearer on use-cases and tasks to be done. This is in contrast to the older site which some people found confusing due to the amount of information and links present.

If you're interested, I also asked Twitter what they think makes for a great docs site: https://twitter.com/alexellisuk/status/1458776636040560648?s...

> Welcome to the new inlets documentation site launched Nov 2021. This rewrite aims to be less verbose, to connect you with practical task-driven examples and to make it easier to find what you need. If you have comments, questions or suggestions, please let us know on GitHub.

The tool used to generate the site is mkdocs with material as the theme. This is a move from the excellent docsify - which unfortunately didn't have user-friendly URLs and was hard to get indexed by Google.

That seems to me to be a big mistake. People talk a lot about affordable housing but as far as I can tell they aren't talking about housing that would be affordable to build. People seem to only want to talk about subsidized housing in luxury developments, at least in the discussions I'm party to.

Of course only a few of these units get built in any development, after much wrangling from the city, and then the city and the developers pat themselves on the back while the lack of housing is hardly budged and the affordable housing advocates are unappeased. I think SRO-style housing is the only realistic way to make affordable housing widely enough available that people well below the median income for an area can be guaranteed housing.

It's not made up, that's a legitimate thing. If I own a farm and want to do donuts in the field in my car, I can do that without a license. I could do it while drunk if I wanted to, it's all perfectly legal.

You only need a driver's license to drive on public roads. This system changes that dynamic, because the government can stop you from driving on private property as well.
The UK is quite far north, just London a southern UK city is about the same latitude as Goose Bay Labrador in Canada.

I'm surprised it isn't more tundra-like in its geography. I know the Gulf Stream helps moderate temperatures but the sunlight level to me seems like northern Canada.
That's more of an issue with two competing goals: higher efficiency (which larger engines help with), and keeping the same type certificate, which only requires difference training for the pilots, instead of a full training regimen.

Because the original 737 was low to the ground, the under wing engines have been a design issue since turbofan engines became common. Each time the plane has been updated with newer engines, they have been larger, because higher-bypass engines, which have larger fans, are more efficient. The only way to fit larger engines on the Max, while still having acceptable ground clearance, was to shift the engines forward. This changed the center of thrust.

Reconciliation Bill can pay for itself with community savings
As legislators question the economics of climate and social spending, I made a resource explaining how investments in community savings (e.g. lower energy bills) can pay for themselves:

https://rebrand.ly/community-savings

This was made for policymakers and legislative staffs, and feedback has been generally positive, so I went ahead and shared it with 80+ Senate staffers (working for 9 Senators across aisles) on LinkedIn!

https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6864900076066754560

(This struck me as a good way to get eyes/awareness of the concept on Capitol Hill. Do voicemails or emails work for something like this?)

If you have any feedback, questions, or ideas, please share. On a technical note, the interactive Community Savings model is made with Svelte and reactive variables — and it's all open-source. (https://github.com/sbutler-gh/blog)
And yet it doesn't mean his RPi-powered website needs to ever sustain that kind of traffic, so he doesn't have to take the additional risk of running a distributed system.

In contrast, in the cloud you typically take on the risk of the underlying distributed platform (optimized for managing thousands of VMs, etc) even though you only need a single machine for yourself.

Is Ars Technica, supposedly a tech-focused news site, really so clueless as to confuse using a technology, with understanding it?

While the judge might be overly cautious in this instance, it's definitely plausible that Apple, in their closed-source software, is using machine learning-enhanced zoom.
Not sure what kind of inspector you got?

* No general inspector I have gotten was qualified or willing to touch the roof. If I wanted to look at the roof condition, I needed to pay a roofing company separately to come out.

* The electrical inspection consisted of taking the lid off the electric box, and looking for loose wires, and putting a "does this have ground" meter in all of the power outlets. Most of the interesting electrical issues that could exist are burred in walls and not accessible.

* General inspectors are not HVAC techs, and can't really say much about HVAC beyond "The furnace is 14 years old based on the install sticker, and appears to turn on"

* Structural issues were like.. look for visible cracks in foundation, but much is likely behind drywall and unable to be seen. Maybe put a marble on the floor and see if it rolls.

Cloud kool-aid drinkers say "The cloud is always better"

I say that in many cases your own server is better. My company runs its own on-prem confluence, it's been taken down for updates on a regular basis at a known maintenence time. That's far better than losing it because a cloud based one was hosted on GCP this morning when we actually need the data

Obviously in many other cases the cloud is better. You wouldn't want to server a million cusotmers across the world from a single server in your own basement. That's not the only model.

They probably had a way of detecting those clients due to some other differences in their protocol traffic.
I grew up near Oxford and I put the fact I don't get ill very often down to a childhood swimming in the Thames/Isis! You definitely wouldn't want to eat anything from the river there but it's mostly coarse fish anyway - they wouldn't be great to eat even if the water was perfect.

One positive thing in an otherwise fairly depressing picture is that the reds kites seem to be doing really well, I always thought they were carrion eaters but I was fishing once and saw one dive and pull a fish clean out of the water! There were very few when I was a kid but they were re-introduced from Wales and there's loads back in Oxford now.

> Speaking for myself

That's the problem, many other voices were disregarded. Being tracked on the internet is not too different from being peeped on in the shower. Some like it, some don't care, and some definitely wouldn't want to consider the possibility. In that spectrum of views someone will feel "absolutely no loss of freedom or dignity".

Your argument can easily be applied to pervasive surveillance, backdoors, tracking malware, etc. (along with the traditional "only criminals should fear it"). I even heard it from people using this "I wouldn't mind if it happened to me" as a defense for sexual harassment. I'm glad it works for you, what about the people for whom it's not working?

At the very least this should have been a real choice. If people aren't bothered then explain the choice and let them make it. Anything else is abuse.

I read the thing but what the author describes just pushes the problem one step down the road, it doesn't solve it.

At some point you got to assign a probability to the events that the author mentions.

You can't just assign equal probability to all the scenarios , otherwise it's not like you have solved anything.
For the Macbook Pros definitely. Just try a non-4k (or FHD) display to trigger the external GPU to see the fans spinning up. Any ultra-wide screen will do.

Another person replied with the key question: multiple hours of organization and maintaining the system, or multiple hours of getting things done?

I'm definitely not following Allen's methodology exactly. I'm doing what works for me. I'm automating a lot of the bullshit, and ignoring Allen's entire half-chapter devoted to why paper is the only option (there is no paper in my system at all). I also don't have any references to sort or organize- everything is in my google drive, which has a powerful search feature. That may come back to bite me, but it hasn't yet.

I do find I am spending a couple hours a day just doing stuff that I would have procrastinated on otherwise.

I do think that voice messaging is a waste of time compared to reading. You can read fast enough to churn out information, but you need to wait for every second to digest the information in a voice call.
Yes. In TruffleRuby we have to ensure that we free memory returned by FFI calls using the correct free implementation, because that’s not necessarily the one being used internally by our runtime.

It’s annoying but it’s something you have to handle.

As for supporting multiple DLLs using different run time libs, I’d guess that only works because they are slightly more complex than simple shared libs and can sort out thread local storage and the like during thread attach. Without that I can imagine things going badly wrong.
