"Being indifferent to inflicting pain" is hardly different to getting joy from it.

After all humans who are indifferent to inflicting pain are considered just as psychotic as those who get joy from it :-/
I don’t understand the obsession with comparing the wealth of the furthest most point of the distribution tail to minimum wage, it makes absolutely no sense.

Who cares how much Musk or Bezos have? Have the government seize literally everything from them and everyone in the US could have $1k once. Despite being at the top, their wealth is irrelevant on a societal scale.

To be honest, a 1500 dollar grapics card that has audible coil whine is appalling. Why didn't you RMA it?
It is where it will end up, and that's phoning home, online verification, and more.

And intel already has parallel software running on intel systems, including access to the nic, which is impossible to shut off at the OS layer, so yeah.. they can do that.

(but outrageous, you say! and people will complain. naw. IME has been around forever, no one cares, it has had zero days, you cannot deactivate it, so a little phoning home and license authorization won't matter. This also means your cpu can expire because intel says so.... )
This is 100% true and it's the reason why I think dome houses are interesting and elegant but not necessarily cost efficient.

Often these decisions are much less evil. Some update in the future is likely to require work on the SSH functionality to keep it working and if not enough people use it, they might decide to kill that feature. Happened often enough that a "simplification" of the tech stack or refactoring ended up killing features that were valued by many, but didn't rank high enough in usage stats.

Ask HN: How do you start a new career with minimal qualifications?
This week will be my 16th Thanksgiving in a row working. I haven't had a cost-of-living increase since 2008, the annual merit increases cap out right around inflation (or under) most years, I've been working 60~ hour weeks, working 6 day weeks, for over half a year now. In the past 2 weeks we've had 3 people quit from just my team. Put a fork in me, I'm done.

The problem is, my job doesn't really translate to much. I fill out paperwork all day, clearing international freight through customs. I don't have a GED, I'm still 3~ years out from earning a degree (which I don't actually want, but employers 100% do). I've even been rejected by companies in my industry, Flexport for example rejected me outright for not having a degree at a time when I had 11 years of experience "Hope all is well, Ryan! I wanted to extend a virtual wave and thank you for your interest in joining our team. You obviously have many of the skills we're looking for. However, for the Customs Brokerage role we require a BA/BS degree as well as previous experience in a broker role doing entries and customs classifications." so I struggle to even escape my current employer for a job that pays even remotely what I make (about 39k in central Indiana after 15 and a half years, while McDonalds is starting at $13-15 an hour all over the state...).

I'm at the point where the only joy I have in my life is what little time my wife and I get to spend together, and some volunteer stuff through my religion. Today I'll clock in, work 11 hours, get to have dinner with my wife and do some classwork, then back to bed to rinse and repeat. On Thanksgiving I'll only work 10 hours...

What do I do? I can't get a degree any faster than I already am.
Lesson one at MBA programmes around the world, education is signalling. Education from the "right" places doubly so.
When you run your own email server, you run a significant risk of getting to spam folders, especially at the beginning if one of your first customers marks your email as spam.

You also have to deal with abuse complaints and discovering where the form is for whichever provider is blocking your email addresses while also dealing with a customer who never got an email from you with their receipt or invoice. It’s a pita.

Did it once, never again.
arguing that FSF is some crazy sect or a religion is certainly not constructive to improving what they do

i think that how you framed your concern in this last point is valid from a security point of view. as someone who values knowing security implications i support the argument that they should improve their work on security matters. in saying that, to me FSF is certainly no worse (i would think alot better) than closed source vendors, including ms, apple, intel, nvidia etc as far as making their users aware of security problems is concerned. i actually think that every device should come with a cigarete packet style label that says "might include backdoor inside", not just FSF products. in fact, maybe if only FSF did this, it might create an impression that only their products have this issue
STL works everywhere. Is trivial to parse. And can contain both colors and units [0].

Is there anything stopping us from having multiple solids per file? If not, I don't see the reason for another format.

The mentioned benefit of having slicing settings in the file will not work. Slicing settings are not portable between machines. And not portable between different kinds of filament.

Can someone post the XKCD about additional standards? :)

It's a matter of what you can persuade people is reasonable. It's not surprising at all to me that pretty much all the people in the NSA think that dragnet surveillance is justifiable. In fact they clearly do think that. I have a much harder time believing that CIA agents would think it's ok to blow up the Twin Towers in order for George Bush's cronies to clean up on military contracts, for example.

This:

>I don't personally think that using a subset of an existing language is a pleasant solution for programmers. The language doesn't get a coherent design, and you don't know which parts of the language will be present.

..sounds exactly like the kind of justification I would come up with if I got excited about designing a new system. Something that has happened many times :-)

That's the problem - I don't know a strict and correct definition for it, not even close one. At minimum there are two polar possibilities - 1) any neuron firing due to damage is a "feeling of pain", or 2) only conscious brain can "feel pain". But there can be other definitions, multiple ones.

First option is possible but not productive for the discussion because then almost everything can feel pain, including some single cell organisms I think.

Second option is anthropocentric and at least at a glance looks incorrect.

The thing is the word "feel" itself is anthropocentric, basically we make analogue with our understanding of pain and project it on other living organisms.
> Collapse takes a long time and it's a slow process.

If you're talking about the roman empire, sure. But i'm guessing (disclaimer: not an anthropologist) that some civilizations have collapsed much faster due to resource exhaustion or otherwise destroying their local environment.

> You can't keep fitting more and more people on a planet the size of Earth and expect to increase energy consumption forever.

The second part of the sentence is the important part, and the one it's easier to do something about. There are so many ways to reduce energy consumption globally, but they require a shift in governance to do away entirely with industrial capitalism. I believe most people would be pretty happy about it (do you really prefer having sushi once a week over having 6/7 days free time?!), except for the bourgeoisie whose entire existence and way of life is threatened.

> That means less vacations, less stuff, less high end services.

I agree reducing consumption is the principle idea, but i don't think "less stuff" from an end-user perspective is what really makes a difference. I believe useless stuff deployed on a wide scale (eg. CCTV, cop uniforms, office buildings, car-oriented cities and other concrete/electronics-based nonsense) is what could make a difference via policy shifts. If as a society you start only producing highly-reliable (and repairable!) goods and do away with useless junk that only serves to reinforce existing power structure, chances are we can have a pretty modern way of life without destroying our entire environment. A few days back, i posted some ideas on another threads about how to realistically start doing that from one day to the next (on a regulatory level): https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29241109

Something like 40% of Indians work in farming. Compare that to, say, the US at 1%.

There is probably a nicer way to say it, but the strategic priority of India should factor in the end of small-time farmers. There are a lot of people working in agriculture who need to be redeployed to something more productive. Unless the plan is to live in poverty forever.
If somebody thinks they're better than you, their disrespecting you while you respect them is exactly what they expect. Staring silence shows that their expectation was wrong and they should reconsider.
> if someone else finds a permanent protection, then people will stop using your product and start using his

Whoever creates the permanent solution is likely to maximise profits, charging a premium which people may begrudgingly pay to not have the inconvenience of renewing their protection.

I expect there would be a balance point for those who can afford and those who cannot.
That's possible. No way they would pass inspection here in NL.
Those statements don't really say that none of the .dev domains will ever resolve, only that all .dev domains that do resolve will point to Google projects that are "in development" (which either means services that haven't officially launched yet or services that aren't deprecated yet, depending on interpretation).

One unexpected aspect of unit-of-measurement types is that they don't generalize well at all to anything more complex than basic arithmetic. For example, it's very hard to create a type-safe library that allows you to compute the dot product of (1m 1Hz) and (1Hz 1m) and get 2m/s, but doesn't allow you to accidentally compute the dot product of (1m 1Hz) with itself.
Math tutoring to get some money on the side when I was a student. I was mostly doing it for friends and friends of friends, many of them from poor background, so never got much money out of it since I was often ending not asking to be paid or very little.

10 years later some of them still thank me, because my tutoring made the difference between passing or failing some exam, which in turn made the difference between working in a sandwich shop or as a pharmacy assistance (for example).

Millions of people draw the line at animals in general: vegans.

We don't need to gerrymander the tree of life into edible and non-edible animals and pretend we have rational for the delineations if we just stop eating animals. Folks in developed countries don't need to eat animals to survive, so why bother? In the best case it allows us to eat some foods that taste unique and different, worst case it propagates unbelievable suffering amongst those we choose to eat.

Isn't that a bit naive? Hypothetically, if the conspiracy theories were true, why would an established publisher take the risk to go against a genocidal cabal? It's infinitely easier (and healthier) to align yourself with the winning side.

They should just expand internet connection access to rural areas to enable banking.

Since that's what they need to fix.

But I get it. Crypto is hot, the actual solution is boring and it's easier to benefit and harder to track conflicts of interest from hyping crypto.
That’s an absolute disaster. It wasn’t even UBI levels and it caused all kinds of inflation and a ballon of government debt.

A.k.a. weren’t really looking for work. It’s like uncle Eddie holding out for a management position for years of being unemployed.
That's exactly it, except with businesses with parking lots on each side and lots of cars pulling in and out. Also a 55 mph speed limit that's routinely ignored unless there's enough traffic to slow everyone down.

List of black Friday deals specific to InfoSec
To this, I actually kept a log for a while, on the basis that some people do tend to remember negative experiences more than positive. And indeed, it was interesting to see how I remembered events after a few weeks vs. what I had written down on the day, and it was useful to try to be more aware of this. As a learning experience everyone ought to try this for a short period.

But I don't think introversion and social anxiety is the same thing, though I absolutely buy that they probably often co-occur. To the extent I have any social anxieties, they are very specific and limited, and don't really affect me much, but the energy drain of interacting with people does.
> This statement seems to assume that a limited duration of protection is a given. We don't know that.

you can be sure they will design it like that or select the right versions that have such properties. Thats what you end up with MBAs leading businesses everywhere.
> It was politically hijacked despite having been previously supported by the same opposition who was currently leading the agitation.

That's either ignorance or a plain lie. Rahul Gandhi, one of the leaders of Congress, has been a vocal opponent of the farm laws from day 1. Here's his speech in Parliament on it - https://old.reddit.com/r/india/comments/li5iey/rahul_gandhis... ... At no point has the opposition Congress ever supported the law.

In fact, it was never even given an opportunity to do so!

This law was suddenly introduced as an ordinance, and bludgeoned through Parliament with the sheer majority of the government, without even a discussion in Parliament. Despite requests, it was not even sent to any Parliamentary committees. Worse, the government hadn't even consulted anyone, and the law had a lot of glaringly loopholes for the obvious benefit of the corporate sector.

A agree completely with you that reforms are much needed in India's agriculture sector. And PM Modi could have easily implemented many of them if he had just followed democratic process and consulted everyone. The farm laws passed by him was sloppy too - many parts of these law were bound to be overturned by the Supreme Court too, as it infringed on the rights of states in our federal setup.

The ORM is great ... but is a question of taste/previous experiences. Once you start playing with annotations, DB-side functions and subqueries, it is very nice.

Only frustration I have is the power/possibilities of mysql (which I use 99% of the time for various reasons) versus postgre. The latter seems far better and advanced, and it does reflect in the ORM.

But wait, this isn't linked to django, is it? :-)
The hardware isn't better on the Remarkable. It's a slower weaker chipset than what's used on any of the Oynx devices and the screen in the RM2 is literally the same part as what is in the Oynx Note Air. Both use Wacom EMR for writing so you can use the same pens and nibs on both.

Remarkable has a plastic layer to improve writing feel and optimized software to get pen latency down. The Oynx Note Air 2 supposedly also has improved writing feel but I'm not sure how it compares.
Obviously nothing is stopping me, that's not the point. I was just highlighting the fact that in my opinion the DX of parts of Django is inferior compared to the JS frontend ecosystem. As the Django community, I think this is something we should have an eye on.

Pre-Ikea furniture lasted centuries, not years. By that standard, Ikea is really not durable. Also it's well-known that Ikea kits are full of forever chemicals that we could (and should) do without.

And yet there's nothing preventing it in theory. Just pure capitalist greed. If some governments and corporations really wanted to do something about climate change, they have the power to do so. We as citizens are left only with the duty to sabotage their profiting of the entire situation because they are not going to do shit about it.

Competition only works, if people compete on that market point.

This can be a juicy revenue stream. If intel gets little blowback, expect AMD and others to salivate, then jump on board.
In practice everyone will collude to have chronic treatments and do bullshit clinical trials that prove non inferiority. And regulators are asleep at the wheel.

The bundle concept applies more to AppImages than to Flatpak. Flatpak downloads common runtime libraries and packages and uses them to run all GUI packages in a sandboxed environment using bubblewrap. OStree is also involved.

I dislike Flatpak because it encourages package maintainer obsolescence. I heard a guy from OpenSUSE saying in a MicroOS presentation that why create, manage, and use RPMs when we can just use Flatpak. I also don't want to touch Flatpak anymore because people from GNOME are involved in it.

Just to add, Java now has simd in the form of the incubating Vector API. I found that it is one of the best high level low level SIMD APIs, with automatic fallback to for loops on ineligible hardware, as well as having an option for preferred lane width.
In most cases the lower slots are not electrically PCIe 16x, only 4x or 8x at max, so you lose performance by moving down.
As someone who has lived in the Midwest for the past ten years I think you’ll be hard pressed to find this. In Lincoln NE, for example, all new housing for at least the past 30 years has been in car-dependent suburban developments which has resulted in all but the Haymarket district of downtown being car dependent.

That district has been mostly livable without a car for the past couple years after a grocery store was built there. I say “mostly” because as soon as you want to do anything outside of The dozen or so blocks of the Haymarket a car quickly becomes required again.

This is a common theme of walkable areas in the US and Canada. They do still exist but because of the development patterns of the past 30+ years they are small islands in an ocean of cars. Their scarcity also drives up prices and makes them less affordable than surrounding areas.
Now, you can complain that ecc should be standard, etc but that's a different discussion. But it's classic economic theory: if Intel can charge some people more for ecc, and charge other people less who don't want it, that is an optimal pricing strategy.

I think people object to this because it's a step towards moving hardware to a licensing/subscription model. Because, why let someone pay for ECC once and not monthly? Unfortunately, once that is normalized, everyone will want to have a piece of the pie.

Talking about ECC specifically: ZFS does not need ECC more than any other filesystem [1]. Secondly, many Ryzen CPUs do have ECC support.

I've recently become interested in building a home that would last for a very long time, up to 10,000 years, inspired by this project: https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20190611-how-to-build-som...

They go into various details about the sorts of things they need to consider, such as keeping water out and managing it when they can't

Your list is also provides some good pointers. Do you have any other ideas around building something that will last a long time?

Whenever I look at photos of long-abandoned buildings I notice how plants and fungi take up residence and "quickly" (i.e. over hundreds or thousands of years) set to work in degrading the structure, so I've been thinking a lot about how to keep life at bay from "eating" any long lasting building.
Those look like they have been made by the same manufacturer.
The methodology is flawed but the kernel of the idea is good - which universities provide the best platform for would-be founders?

Things like proximity to VCs, labs with a history of spin-offs, successful alumni angel networks, etc would all play a role.
I believe I once managed to make Toit run in web-assembly.
