I'm not sure how you have a subscription to Lichess when it's a free site. Do you donate?

> My Elo rank on lichess is a full 500 points higher on lichess than chess.com

The ratings difference on lichess is arbitrary. Everyone starts higher (1500 vs 1200), so the average is higher.

> For me games are far easier and quicker to setup with chess.com

Unless I've missed something on chess.com this makes no sense at all.

Because you were a teen when you were seduced, I suggest you stay the torch and consider you are reacting just as though someone said something insulting about "yo mama".
There's no fundamental reason you can't since there are X11 clients for windows, which is what this uses. However, FreeBSD jails and Linux containers have very little overhead on their native OS, whereas Docker on Windows runs a Linux VM, so the experience might not be that great. Only way to know though is to try it!
Can one really be extradited for contempt of court related to a civil lawsuit?
A proper 1 way door for your example would be to build warehouses in a way where cell phones don't work. Once people have died, you cannot make a change to allow cell phones quickly and cheaply. You're stuck with the warehouses, and either have to stop operations and build new ones, or accept the risk that more people will die

2 way doors aren't about making bad choices, they're about the response time and cost for when you identify that the choice was bad. You can make bad choices for 1 way and 2 way doors.

The best example I can think of for your argument is the flint water system. What looked like a 2 way door was actually a 1 way door, when the choice to switch water sources completely destroyed the pipes beyond usability, and any water flowing through the pipes would be contaminated, regardless of the source.

A 2 way door equivalent would stop being contaminated once they switched the water source back, even though people had drunk contaminated water
I really enjoy being able to hide other users, makes it so easy to uncover things that have been wiped over.

Something had said "I am the admin and I get a notification every time the site updates". It'd be really cool as a user to be able to set a "notification area" for a small spot to keep little ASCII chat collabs/flings open to multiple people.
I mean… browse through HN for the day. According to its users you shouldn’t work at any company that pays well because they are all evil. At a certain point you just don’t care what people are writing on forums.
thank you! will check it out.
Heh. I remember a time back when I worked at Google, and we're using a proprietary internal language to construct some monitoring stuff. It took three of us a day to implement some simple thing that was a line or two of code, so opaque and intractable the language was. When we got it to do what we expected, we still weren't quite sure it was really correct. It was really kind of an existential moment where we collectively wondered, "wtf are we doing?"
yeah, i think the comprable product here is aws cognito, not IAM.

except that's not really comprable either, because Azure AD is actually pretty broadly used.
The main interesting bit (to me, at least) is:

* On macOS hosts with Apple Silicon CPUs we now support the 'hvf' accelerator for running AArch64 guests
Politics will have to change with our increased age lifespan as well...

The world, the technology and the social constructs within it are changing faster and faster every year. Arguably we're already seeing issues with large aging parts of society trying to make decisions on New technologies and trying to maintain what they know (arguably climate change is a problem created several generations ago and not being acted on appropriately by those same generations).

It makes my toes curl trying to mentally find fair and equitable ways to answer these issues. I suspect the anti aging technology will progress faster than our ability to react to it, much like climate change...
How do you quantify that it’s more stable?
> The analysis of the Juno flyby looked at analysis errors that could potentially mimic the flyby anomaly. They found that a high-precision gravity field of at least 50×50 coefficients was needed for accurate flyby predictions. Use of a lower-precision gravity field (such as a model with 10×10 coefficients, sufficient for launch analysis), would yield a 4.5 mm/s velocity error.

I buy this explanation as the most likely vs any other more esoteric explanation.

I totally agree on #1 and #2.

#3 I think would solve itself. Wow is US News college rankings big business and important. And uppity New Yorkers seem to know quite well what the pecking order is in elite preschools (I'm facepalming that this is true)

Class paranoia is too strong. Something would serve it.

Vouchers would likely involve a lot of fraud, the charter school system already has. A shift to full vouchers would be an expensive cost, one that democrats won't get past republicans.
Reddit is now a rage generating machine outside of the small niche subreddits. The business is built on rage and some stupid investors in WSB who are enjoying a long bull market.

Doesn’t mean it won’t do well but its just another flavor of facebook.
While Russia technically has laws against cybercrime, it turns a blind eye as long as the criminals aren't hacking other Russian companies/citizens.

it once was like this already. You can spin up your site anytime. You can use tor hidden services to make yourself uncensorable. No need for crypto, pay in knowledge only. And that's why web 1.0 was superior.

edit, ok, tor appeared with web2.0, but still it is more of a web 1.3.
This was an absolutely fascinating read. Thanks for sharing!
To me, the kerning issues are fine if you remember that this is meant to mimic a wooden sign carved with a router. For a typeface on a screen, it's all wrong but it does reflect the original use quite well.
> I wouldn’t be able to put them in public school. It’s a circus. It’s daycare for the 80%

As someone with kids in both public and private school, let me assure you that both are 80% daycare. And someone without kids might not understand this, but daycare is highly educational. Children don't learn by sitting through a lecture, they learn through the process of someone taking care of them.

Also while we're both throwing around totally unsubstantiated statistics about other fields of work, I would suggest that white collar work is also 60% daycare for the worker, since jobs are a in large part an income redistribution technology.
Ask HN: Country says no to DNSSEC. What can I do?
I have a .to domain and the country code registrar (tonic) says they will not implement DNSSEC. Is this a big problem? Can I get protection from dns attacks in some other way? My website is for a financial service so I'm concerned it would be targeted.
Agree with this so much. One of the main things that I try to do is ensure that the turn around time between testing and writing code is as short as possible.

As an example I inherited a codebase about 2 years ago that would take 15 minutes to run the test suite. It was painful. It was just long enough that it would waste an entire day just trying to implement a simple feature. The project was behind schedule and no one wanted to work on it because it just took too long to do anything.

So I spent a few weeks running benchmarks on the tests and figuring out where the slow down was. I did a bunch of different things, reusing SQL tables, only truncating tables ones that were used, refactored how the tests worked, removed some code so that docker was not needed to do the testing, etc.

I got those tests running in 3 seconds down from 15 minutes. And that changed the whole velocity of the project.

Always sharpen your ax.
Wow. This is really good. Manga/anime fans who want to improve their Japanese can learn a lot from this.

I worked as a Japanese-to-English translator for twenty years (until 2005) and wrote and translated some Japanese-language textbooks, but I was never into otaku stuff and never would have thought of producing something like this. Hats off to the author.

They use different rating systems, different starting values for elo and in general, elo is a measure of your strength relative to the player pool you're playing in, so your elo across websites is not meant to be comparable.

E.g. in Lichess you'll always start at 1500, while in Chess.com you can start at 400 or 1200 (and some values in between I believe), so it's pretty normal if your ratings differ with hundreds of points - in fact it would be very weird if they didn't (unless you're 2400+ I suppose).

By the way, an interesting comparison some people try to make is elo in Lichess/Chess.com and FIDE rating and see if one can estimate FIDE rating for someone who has never played over-the-board just from their Lichess blitz rating.
Aw yes, the system that facebook utilizes and everyone across the world loves /s
To this point, I would probably stop using the desktop version of the site if they nixed old.reddit.com.
Lichess starts you out at 1500 vs chess.com's 1200. So the whole bell curve is shifted.
Which raises the question.

Where will people head from the reddit exodus?
My recollection is that the battle of Helm's Deep took place over a few pages, whereas the realization of the novel expanded that to (maybe) hours and offered a de novo romantic side-plot with the major character. Nabokov completely upended the narrative frame for the screen-play of Lolita he wrote for Kubrik, but he certainly did not inseminate it with pure pulp.
You're right about the versions, they also have wildly different starting values and very different player pools (I'd argue that more beginners play on chess.com), so you'd expect a substantial elo difference between websites
It also makes sense

https://artificialintelligence-news.com/2020/10/28/medical-c...
Chess.com and lichess use different rating systems, and give different ratings to new players. Chess.com ratings end up being consistently lower, but that doesn't correspond to you being in a lower percentile of players on chess.com (what parent was talking about).

For reference though, I'm 2000 lichess rapid, and 1700 chess.com rapid. I use chess.com as my "I'm not going to play well right now" site so it's a bit worse because of that, but mostly it's because of the difference in rating system/pool.
Work is not a proxy for survival. Sometimes have to take time off work to keep your baby alive. Taking care of the survival of your family isn't work. Changing diapers isn't work. Work is a social relation.
Wow. Oh My God rocked my teenage world while growing up in Michigan. They were probably the most exciting band to consistently come through my town and blow all of the other bands away at the local venue. We went ape for their shows.

Never ever thought I’d hear someone mention them on HN.
You should still have a front page, but there's nothing but the subreddits you opt in to. All I want to kill is the site pushing content at you that you didn't explicitly ask for.

You probably had the "laptop mode" toggled on in the setup. With it on you will rarely get games to analyse. This will only send you games when the network is stressed. If you toggle it off you should get one game after another almost constantly.

I doubt it's speed. I was getting constant games with an i3-5100.
That's quite interesting, but it's not the only decentralized network that can be used like this.

You could also either create nonstandard clients for the bittorrent DHT, that just use it to find each other, or maybe just have a torrent of a list of domains that you prepared beforehand, but you only provide the next chunk of data with the next items in the list once your old ones are burned.

Shut it down. It’s toxic and shouldn’t be fixed. It’s perpetuating a echo chamber, slippery slope. All echoed ideas are bad as they discourage critical independent thought.
It's a pretty big claim to state that social interaction is 'for kids to figure out'. Social interaction, one of the most important facets of life, requires teaching and guidance as much as anything else. In fact proper socialization if anything requires more guidance by responsible adults than some technical subject.

Given that the manifesto takes a decidedly humanist stance on technology its not surprising. Education isn't just about 'learning stuff' its about having institutions that form citizens and instill some sense of virtue and values, and that can't be done in front of a screen, or replaced by technology. Very relevant today with the amount of covid-related lack of socialization outside of the home.
Part of the problem is that different front ends encourage different types and levels of discourse.

Being able to chose to use a different front end only solves part of the problem.

It started with removing visible downvotes.
That's not what work means. Productivity isn't work. Hence why people take time off work to take care of their kids or house. Work is a social relation. If you don't have that social relation, then nothing you do will be recognized as work.

I always find it useful to compare reddit to imgur. IMO the future of reddit is the present of imgur. The value proposition of imgur in large parts is the same as reddit IF we ignore the part where imgur was hit with a deadly blow when reddit launched in-platform media hosting.

Imgur's push for mobile app and the desparate attempt (I will say plea) to form a loyal community around the product really shows how internet platforms fails to innovate and think community is the only to tool growth and survival.

On the other hand we see another example of Tumblr where communities get in the way of operating a business.

After everything I say I find Facebook and YouTube is successful because community driven platforms work in niches but to scale up you must establish yourself as a monopoly and focus on running a business while juggling all the negativity.
Is there a status page specifically for instances of MongoDB hosted on Azure?
Thanks for sharing this wonderful quote.
Yeah while all the big subreddits are nigh unusable, there's a lot of small/mid-sized communities that are an absolute delight to be a part of.
IBM develops and sells IP. Not to mention having the tech and getting yield and working at scale are completely different thing. I doubt it make much of a different.

VTFET is sub 2nm, on TSMC time table, assuming they use it, you get Nanowire ( GAA ) with 2nm in 2025, it normally get another generation of fine tuning and cost amortisation. So you are looking at 2029 ( 1nm ) for volume production at the earliest.
Ah, so this "direct scanout" is just an improvement over the previous bad situation, not an improvement over the classic double buffered vsync, and not a way to give the application the choice to write directly to the active framebuffer during scanout.
Yes, there are frameworks like Vaadin that let you write a desktop-like app. Your app will send a small bit of precompiled JS to the client, which will handle updating the page when the backend tells it to.

There are also many transpilers that compile other languages to JS. ScalaJS comes to mind, but almost every language has something like this. Thanks to Google's attempt to push Dart, there's even a way to get in-browser debugging for most transpiled langauges.
I hope that no single organization replaces Reddit. Let a billion independent forums bloom. For the sake of discoverability, it would be nice if a decent subset of them implemented more or less the same API that search engines could call from the outside and that their UIs could expose to users so that users could easily move from forum to forum. But discoverability is double-edged - it builds size but it also brings Eternal September and homogeneity.

As for structure, I think that forums and image boards that are basically just chronologically ordered items of text where each item of text can have either implicit or explicit links to previous items of text are in a sense superior to tree-based forums like Reddit anyway because directed acyclic graphs are a superset of trees.

As for upvote/downvote mechanisms, I have never seen a forum that was improved by them. Such mechanisms are probably good for driving engagement but from the point of view of stimulating thought, I think that as opposed to having an outside algorithm preference certain comments over others, it is better when users have to either manually go through a flat chronologically ordered list of comments or implement their own search functionality on top of that list in order to find comments that they want to engage with. If a forum provides advanced tools to search and sort comments, that is good, but I would prefer that a forum not build any given sorting other than chronological into its default UI.

Reddit, at least, still allows users to sort in ways other than by "best". In my experience and according to my taste, large subreddits usually are often pretty useless unless I sort by "new" or "controversial". Sorting by "best" all too often - not always, but all too often - just brings the least common denominator up to the top. Another good method for using Reddit is to make note of any individual users whose writings you find interesting and to then just read through their Reddit histories - this can also be a good way to find interesting subreddits that you might not have come upon otherwise.
This is absurdly good - great work Julia.
Age-related diseases and dying from old age is the tip of the iceberg. A much more important part is how the behavior/personality changes with age. We start out foolish and energetic, trying things out, making mistakes and creating new neural connections at the peak rate. Towards the 30s, we slow down, rely more on experience, most of newly learned things are recombinations and abstractions on top of the things learned earlier. Once we approach the end of the life, we become much more risk-averse, hesitant to wander off known paths, and grasping fundamentally new concepts becomes nearly impossible. Remember making fun of all those pensioners still using dial-up?

It is likely related to the limited capacity of the human brain and I doubt it could be easily worked around. Generational change and the limitless supply of the generation Z, willing to break things and learn from their mistakes, is what propelled humanity out of the caves and made civilization possible. I don't think killing it off in the name of abstract longevity would be a wise idea...

I love this. I made an ask HN post about testing practices for games[0]. The answers I got are interesting and an opportunity to reflect. There are clearly some differences in programming cultural practices.

I’m of the opinion that applying great testing practices to unity programming is very important. It’s been fun synthesizing ideas I’ve encountered into my hobby game dev career.

I’m glad there are others out there doing the good work of generating content to popularize the benefits of good testing practice :)

I believe, this is only the way to produce both high spectral resolution and high spatial resolution hyperspectral data. Or is there a better way with similar performance?

On the other hand recording takes relatively long, 1000 image lines (with spectra) at 20 lines per second will take 50s. Or will it record faster?
Freaking platform risk!! I lost 8 months of my life on 2 projects. One was using robinhood's unofficial API and the other one was Discord's.

So now my whole goal is to built stuff from the ground up.
There has been some recent changes to reddit and it is becoming aggressively annoying. Trying to make me look back on my top posts and comments and flashy buttons on the top. They are aiming for that dopamine hit by showing you your top posts so you can reminisce in all the likes you got that day. On top of that they have a banner across the bottom you can close but it forever comes back nagging you to verify your account. The whole reason I do kind of use reddit is because I am anonymous to others and can speak freely. I can create burner accounts and say one thing and never go back to it. It feels very facebooky with the big push for engagement happening right now but I guess this public offering is why the big push.
The content density of old reddit is much higher than new Reddit. Additionally, I've always been deeply unhappy with endless scroll. Pagination just feels much more stable to me.
Yea---I'm getting tired of acting excited when I hear we have another one on the way.

In the USA, if you have an income (sometimes without any income), judges are putting guys in jail over non-support. It could be planned, or a Netfllix and chill; there are guys in jail over non-support.

There's a part of me that gets it.

Then there's a part of me that thinks the guy should have a say in the matter, and going to jail should not be part of the discussion, especially for the poor guys.

I got off track, and realize the economy needs workers, and tax payers. Extending adult lives might make the modern economic system work?

I just feel like there are to many of us, and kids from wealthy families pollute far more than poor kids over their lifetimes.

To those that believe "It's my body--my right!" I'm with you, but are certain guys who can't be financial providers like society demands. Look up the comedian David Foley if you want a scare. And he's upper middle class, or used to be. I guarantee who might cancel your Netflix, and never have another booty call.

And yes--as men we aren't supose to talk about the joyous event of baby making Ever. It's none of our business?

Except when the judge throws you in jail.

I know a homeless guy with severe psychological issues. (I have no idea why he's not on SSDI.) He's beyond help, other than needing a shelter, and regular meals--which is nonexistant. Ironic that my county is very wealthy. One of his acquaintances decided she wanted a child in her late 30's. "She needed purpose in her life". She asked around town. No one wanted any part of it. She finally corralled this basket case into her car on a rainy night, and poof she was pregnant. She told him she ecpected nothing. Her family is loaded.

A year in a half later ge gets a letter from the family court in my county, and if he didn't show up there was a fine. (delivered to a free po box from a nonprofit)
Honestly, I think their webstore-side is surprisingly weak. As experience that is. Ofc, logistics and so on and AWS is still moving.
