A decade? 2? a century?
Thanks for the pointer. I figured as much about mining although I do live in a place that has relatively low electric costs ($.07/kWh)
It's really exciting that people from so many software ecosystems are acknowledging the shared goal and duty of securing the software supply chain.

One project I was hoping to see there is sigstore[0], but maybe the ideas behind that will get discussed even without a formal timeslot.

Agreed, I think signs like this are a way of pushing someone's thought from "I wonder if they are ok?" to "They need help." In essence, it makes a situation actionable by an outsider.
Hopefully this kind of story encourages more people to actively shun certified organic products. I do because I think certification is a piece of paper that doesn't mean much about food quality and I resent the pressures it's creating on small, responsible farmers.
Deep Neural Networks to Detect Weeds from Crops. A Review
I wanted to find an optimal neural network for my laser device for detecting weed, in the end I wrote an article
Most of my friends with e-bikes are already on their second e-bike.

One issue is obsolescence. The newer bikes have bigger tires, better frame designs to accommodate the motor, better controls, more battery capacity, and so forth. They are purpose built as e-bikes, rather than conventional bikes with a motor and battery strapped on.

Another is repair. Finding spare parts for the electronics is a headache. The hall sensor went out on one friend's bike motor, resulting in a new bike. Voltages and connector pinouts have to be matched unless you're a whiz with a soldering iron and can find documentation -- good luck.

Conventional bikes had similar issues with both things, but there's a brisk global market for keeping older bikes working, and a sufficient supply of aftermarket parts for obsolete bikes are available in the US. And there's a lot of shared folklore on how to keep old bikes working, along with people who cobble bikes together from old parts and sell them. I can still maintain a 1963 Schwinn. All but one of my bikes are assembled from spare parts. That kind of secondary economy hasn't emerged for e-bikes yet.
My team and I write TCL based iRules for F5 devices. We do it a couple of times a week. They are a very nice tool.

Sometimes we've had to use it like an emergency super power to patch http applications on the wire.

The reason why some financial institutions are working right now is because of some iRules we wrote a couple for years ago.

If your company uses F5 boxes, you should befriend your F5 admins.

I think that can be true, but comes with some big IFs attached which tend to ruin it in practice.

Privacy is the big one. I don't think that needs any further explanation at this point.

Attention span and lack of a way out are the other ones. As a user, I know and respect that creators and services need to make money. But if the only option is to turn me into the product by monetizing my data, screen estate and attention span, which is already running low anyway, I'm out. I'm sorry, but I'm just over it and I will instead spend five minutes of my time to find an alternative and spare future me from the constant brain and data drain.

Unless, that is, I can give you money to never see another ad, at a price that feels appropriate for the value I get out of being able to continue using that site.
Since MAUI works on Android, I assume MAUI will eventually support Linux.
Knowledge of one’s ignorance is also valuable.

I understand how important it is , to monetize things for one’s livelihood.

But 9/10 times, the best content comes from people who dont care a cent about how much people will pay them for what they write, and instead just focus on writing well and making a point.

I appreciate every open blog/newsletter/rss feed out there, who keeps its content up 24/7 for people to read and see through.

Thanks to all of you who do that, its always been one of the best ways to get great content.

And i wish the segment who’s overly obsessed about monetising every single interaction of human civilisation, good luck.
A simple solution would be to have a “-site” option for the search. The same way you can use “site:.gov” to only return .gov domains, we should be able to “-site:Pinterest.com” to never see that noise again.

Oh that, yes. In retrospect the sample fits perfectly with the song, probably because they built the song around it.

If they had picked a different sample, they might have made a great song, that would sound completely differently, making us also wonder how they 'picked out that sample'.

All of that said, yes, it was a keen choice, Greenwood is definitely the real deal.

Seems relevant to me. I wouldn’t choose a framework coupled to Shopify to sell adult content. It’s good for anyone working in tech for sex workers (and for sex workers using built on the Shopify platform) to know this is a risk.
My concern is that they will eventually do this by default for all code even if you're not using CoPilot.
I think people should start pushing for cycling infrastructure on fiscal responsibility grounds. A good cycle path system is an extremely cheap way to provide mobility options to a city, all considered.
Tim Cook told Apple's board that it shouldn't lose out to Korea's IAP bill
reminded me of https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bzkRVzciAZg
Rough Translation of the article:

Apple CEO Tim Cook is known to hold an unacceptable position on South Korea's IAP Act. If Apple does not accept the Korean law, a head-on clash with the government and the National Assembly seems inevitable.

On the 8th, an official from the National Assembly's Science, ICT, Broadcasting and Communications Committee said, "We have confirmed that Tim Cook mentioned at Apple's board meeting that Apple should not lose out to Korea's IAP Act, through a report from a US civic group. Apple HQ also rejected partial improvement plans settled with Apple Korea" he said.

Multiple officials from the Ministry of Science and ICT also confirmed Tim Cook's instruction that "We should not lose out to the Korean market."

The Korean government and the National Assembly have continued discussions with Apple and Google after the passage of the amendment to the Telecommunications Business Act in September, which aims enforcement of a specific in-app payment method. The government and the National Assembly have requested improvement measures so that mobile content providers can freely select and use the payment method they want in the App Store.

In the process, it is known that some law firms and other officials representing Apple delivered the position of the Korean government and the National Assembly to the Apple HQ, but they did not hear any response for the improvement. In fact, in the first implementation plan of the IAP Act submitted to the Korea Communications Commission in October, Apple only expressed the position that "it is possible to use the iPhone/iPad app after paying on an external site." Since then, no further improvements have been made.

The fact that Apple's attitude toward the IAP has not changed even after consultations in Korea is supposed to be due to the will of Cook, the highest decision maker.

Apple is under pressure from South Korea, the United States and the European Union (EU) due to its App Store payment policy. The US and EU are pushing for amendments to antitrust laws to allow 'side loading', which enables app installations outside of the App Store. Apple is concerned about the situation in which if Korea allows external payments, it will motivate other countries for more strict regulation.

The conflict between Apple and the Korean government and the National Assembly is expected to escalate. The Korea Communications Commission will revise the enforcement decree of the Telecommunications Business Act within this year as early as this year to prohibit app markets from restricting mobile content providers using other payment methods or making it technically difficult. After the enforcement decree takes effect, Apple's actions may be subject to legal punishment. The resignation of former Apple Korea CEO Yoon Gu is also interpreted as related to this conflict.
Also, at least in Ubuntu, sudo commands are logged in syslog and are thus auditable.

That’s not necessarily the case if you su as root and run the same commands.
Well, I think the idea is that while it would be difficult to work on an EV motor yourself, it's also much less necessary, as electric motors are much simpler, with far fewer moving parts. I don't know if we have enough data yet to evaluate, but EV's should be much lower maintenance in that regard.

Outside of the powertrain, seems like the rest of the car should be similar though, like tires and brakes, right?
Next.js Tutorial: Building a Multilingual Website with ButterCMS
Fellow Hackers, Thanks for such great guidance. This is super useful and inspiring. I see a pattern among the suggestions for the backend. For the front-end, what's the typical YC stack? Is react still being used?

Did you follow some book/learning resource recently that you found valuable that you would recommend on this topic?
I just wish people would use a system that's integrated into where the code is. I don't want to have to register for a forum when GitHub has a perfectly good ticketing system (and now discussions), and yet I have to register at another place where my details can be leaked from because who knows the technical capability of this one single person who may or may not have done any security.

If it's a company, please have the forum integrated into your software.

I seriously do not want yet another login unless there is a good reason. It's ridiculous. I have nearly 700 logins in my password manager and I'd say probably 500 of those items are websites I've registered once to ask a question (quite often questions that go unanswered). Half of these forums do not even provide the capability to removing my account without contacting the admins, which is just an unnecessary hassle.
I’ve been wanting to build this for years! Especially in a B2B setting, sometimes they simply want a prototype.
Once again they can have all yours data, market and technology but not the other way round.
That's fair, but (in my area at least) they're a lot more rare than asshole cars parking in bike lanes or driving too fast. I'd take over-aggressive bikes over thoughtless and negligent drivers any day of the week.
> I consider Discord to be the best place to build a community right now

Why so?

> I don't think that free software purists have any right to demand that devs build their platforms on something like IRC

Sure, but they can kindly ask, I guess! Don't you think using readily available open source software is a reasonable ask from an open source community?

And well, IRC is not the only alternative to Slack and Discord. You have Mattermost, Matrix, Telegram, Wire and numerous other tools which are decent modern chat apps. However, the points about using chat in the original article still stand with these tools.
My real question is who are they trying to scam? I don't believe anyone with industry experience would buy their outlandish claims.

My current hypothesis is that they are going after government grants? and possibly over zealous companies looking to get their foot into the insert tech buzzword sector.

That’s only true if you presume that demand for roads remain constant. Ideally you’d hope that cycle infrastructure would offset some road use, which would allow the state to reclaim some lanes for cyclists. Given how space inefficient cars are, it wouldn’t require a significant drop in road usage for cyclists to be given all the space they need independent from pedestrians.
I too like mailing list, but most of the mailing list software I have seen isn't that great. Essentially, it would be like a glorified Google Groups which I am not a fan of. They are prone to spam and often leak your email address. I could see a modern system working with remailer support built in, but at that point it isn't much different than a forum. It is essentially Usenet, and at this point I'd rather see Usenet make a comeback.

The issue is that the map data in FS2020 is not 1:1 with what's on Bing. In Bing maps, for example, I can see my apartment complex in bird's eye view, however in FS2020 it's a construction site (a 5+ year old aerial image).
If you're in it for the buck then how are you different from them? There's a time and place to get rich and there's a time and place to have fun. Open source is where we go to have fun and help out. Not everything in this world needs an economic reason. If someone gives you software who is angry and feels like you're exploiting them, then would you want to use it?
Most importantly, I'm pretty sure any other superpower (i.e. the ones who are both interested in the data and who China might actually want to keep the data away from) will just pick it up with satellites. Those things don't just take pictures.
Yes, as mentioned elsewhere, finger-spelling is common when introducing a new person/entity/concept into the conversation.

Regarding the person's expressions, it's common in ASL to employ very dramatic facial expressions to assist and augment the signs themselves to help the "listener" arrive at the correct understanding and feeling.

Not true. Good luck exporting the issues, pull requests, comments, discussions, wikis, etc. and bringing those to another platform.

Ironically (and I am not defending them), Slack[0] is the only one of the three that has an official way to export all messages. GitHub does not, unless you're counting their API, but then maybe you want to consider Discord things like this[1]?

For what it's worth, in the state I live in it is legal for bike riders to treat stop signs as yield signs. It started in Idaho in the 80s and has been adopted by a growing number of states since then.

It's also legal in my state to ride bikes on the sidewalk. That doesn't cause much of a problem for pedestrians because unfortunately there are few bike riders or pedestrians.

I only mention this to make people aware that what's legal depends on where they live.
Except that when people try to use fantastical stories of perpetual motion machines to bilk investors or the like, not calling bullshit does have a net negative.

There is ‘plausible imagining’ and then there is also ‘scammy bullshit’.
I'm pretty sure most of the maintenance costs for a bike lane are for repainting it because cars drive over it and wear away the paint.
From here which was linked in the article:

Why [T comparable] and not [T constraints.Comparable]?

One is inbuilt, the other is just an interface defined in a package? Compiler would check if the types all implement the required operators in both cases, no?

I am no Go programmer and don't know the language specification, just asking out of curiosity.
So just to be clear, Python has one official package manager: pip. It’s built into Python. Both it and virtualenv are part of Python itself, they are not separately installed applications. It’s a bit like saying Rust is confusing because “rustc”, “cargo” and “clippy” are different things.

So that’s the base level. You’ve got pip and virtualenv. Everything else builds ontop of that.

But hey it turns out it would be cool to iterate on stuff outside of Python itself. And maybe there are some useful things we can add to pip and virtualenv? And so Poetry and Pipenv are born.

It’s probably Stockholm syndrome but this seems pretty simple.
The difference though is that verification through phone numbers relies on money that you've already spent, which is a lot more reasonable for the majority of users. People would still be unhappy if they had to pay 5 bucks if they didn't own a phone.

> You'll also need to pay for the people doing the research to buy houses, have cars, retirement savings, raise families, and have a decent quality of life too.

Newton and Cavendish didn't have any of those, except that Cavendish had retirement savings. So while not having houses, cars, retirement savings, the ability to raise a family, and a decent quality of life might be a reason for not achieving more than Newton or Cavendish, it's not a reason for achieving less.

(I suspect that raising a family is actually counterproductive. I've seen an awful lot of promising researchers of both genders stop publishing after their first baby.)

I don't have any of those things, but while I'm no Newton or Cavendish, I can't attribute the difference to my lack of a car. Most of the people in my country don't have any of those except for houses; most of the people here who own houses built them with their own hands rather than buying them.

It's true that if you have to choose between going into data science and owning your own house and car, or doing quantum optics while living in poverty, the former is a lot better for you. But for most of us it's not an either-or choice:

1. Why not both? Lagrange did a significant amount of his work while subsisting on a day job teaching ballistics to gunners. Vipul Ved Prakash wrote Vipul's Razor by working one month out of the year in Delhi, then spending the other 11 months up in the mountains working on whatever he wanted to. Sidis deliberately didn't do anything others would consider useful, surviving on a series of menial jobs, but if he'd turned his formidable intellect on the problems of automatic computation or chemistry instead of collecting streetcar transfers, possibly he would have made significant progress. I've been living on US$6k a year, so a single year of a US$250k salary and stock package at Google or Fecebutt would allow me to survive for 40 years.

2. For most of us, it's neither. Most people don't have a data-science job available, or cars, or job security, or retirement savings. Given the choice between spending your spare time on watching Westworld and setting up experiments with Kerr cells and third-harmonic-generation crystals, what could possibly make the former a better choice? Though I'm one to talk! Here I am wasting my time commenting on the orange website, arguing about physics with people (who aren't you) whose understanding of physics evidently comes from WGBH Boston.

So, while I agree that everyone should live in material abundance, I don't agree with your apparent conclusion that more abundance of non-experimental-apparatus material goods would boost the world's research productivity. Many more people can buy houses, buy cars, have retirement savings, and raise families than 50 or 100 years ago, while the speed of scientific advancement has increased only modestly.
The other thing that might need to grow is multiple supply chains into specialized nuclear components by an order of magnitude. My gut says it’s actually easier to scale solar and renewables by an order of magnitude than those items.

Of course China might have the same motivations of many nuclear powers have - which is a desire to also maintain a baseline manufacturing capacity for nuclear technologies in general.
If you think fast cycling "Lance Armstrong wannabes" are bad, wait until the trail is taken over by 30mph eBike riders that not only aren't experienced enough to ride safely at that speed, but they bolted on the eBike drive to a bike that was not intended for that speed.
I'm blown away by how expensive they are and then how many I see.

$5k-$7k for an e-bicycle?

Yes yes yes, I realize enthusiasts pay up to $10-15K for high-end frames and wheels, with full Campy gruppos[1], but eBike buyer's aren't CAT-2 qualifiers.

On a side rant, the price of bikes in general has skyrockted. With so much of the manufacturing happening in China, I would have assumed that the overall costs of bikes would go down and quality would go up since the 80's (when I was really into cycling in my 20's). But the opposite has happened: quality stayed roughly the same and prices went way, way up. (e.g., A Tom Ritchie frame went for about $1.5k in 1984, and that was hand-made.)

I actually meant central authority in the software sense, not in the government sense. I'm talking about blockchain as a technology, not necessarily bitcoin. Though of course bitcoin is a pretty successful implementation of blockchain.
