Slow traffic is absolutely fine, if you can actually identify it as slow traffic.

Just by looking at tractors, cyclists and pedestrians you know they are not going very fast, but a car going 20mph where the limit is 50mph is insanely dangerous because your brain instinctually thinks the car is going about as fast as you are and you have to get quite close to pickup the speed difference.

Here in Denmark you can get a fine for going too slow, it's called being an unnecessary nuisance.
I've developed some 4x5 Tri-x 320 film with caffenol-c and ilford rapid fixer and the results were good[0]. No scratches or grain but that might be due to the large format and not needing to agitate in a tank. My development time was 11 minutes which i guessed from these experimental times [1].

Just FYI I'm a mid-level SWE at this time. Not an expert. This is just what I've encountered (corp day job) and personal pains of my own code.

I primarily use ReactJS.

We used a domain-driven pattern. Although there is still that component parent hierarchy thing going on.

TDD (tech design doc), write the code, linter, unit tests (Jest/Enzyme eg. render part of component take code snapshot, assert stuff) and then WDIO for visual regression testing (image diffs). It is a time consuming thing to setup but when you have like 600tests it's nice/assuring. Then it runs on a pipeline (Jenkins) for about an hour before it gets released to some domain.

Personally I am still in the get it done/MVP stage. The above is ideal case when you're established/dealing with many other people changing code.

I am going with a Selenium/functional test though personally for the thing I'm working on now (2-way real time interactive app).

There's different ways to test stuff depends what your thing is. The TAs I worked with use Eggplant.

The main thing though about separation of concerns is important when possible just to reduce cognitive load for the next stuff you add.
In Kodi's settings you can specify a lower resolution for the menus. Not sure if that changes the controls overlay during playback though.
It's the same experience with kodi if you buy one of the cheap amlogic tv boxes with it pre installed
I don't know if "code is law" has to be invoked here. Isn't that a HN-specific strawman argument?

Anyways, of course you can take those coins as when you're running Bitcoin you're strictly speaking not signing a TOS and nobody ever owned those coins.

What people keep private are signing keys for a transaction output. But if you found the key independently, they should be yours too.
I feel like there's a parallel here with social media: make a post, it idly collects likes and comments for that dopamine fix, and the next day your progress is reset (hardly anyone looks at old posts).
Feels like a Hitchhiker’s quote:

"""Coincidentally, 2276709 is also the telephone number of a flat in Islington where Arthur once went to a party, met a nice girl, and lost her to a party-crasher. While the flat and telephone have been demolished along with Earth, they are forever linked to the fact that Arthur Dent and Ford Prefect—against all odds—are rescued 29 seconds after being ejected from the Vogon spaceship."""
That's the point, toddlers don't really discriminate in this case. I'm not even sure if they have the same concept of "strangers" that you have. If we could all preserve this mindset, we would all be better of.
The general "city dweller" politian vs. people living on the land seems to be an issue in many countries.

I think you massively overestimate how much general knowledge about biology people have. For a lot (I would reckon most, but obviously I have no evidence of that) of people, terms like 'paraphyletic' are literally not in their vocabulary.

Thought experiment: if I use 512-bit encryption from cleartext to intermediate blob, and then encrypt that with 256-bit encryption, is there a way to determine, by looking only at the final ciphertext, that 512-bit encryption keys were used in the intermediate step?
I remember our son when he was about 3 or 4 becoming irate in the baggage area of Geneva airport because some kids were sitting on the stationary luggage conveyor belts even though there were announcements telling you not to do that. He stormed off to protest to a deeply amused airport worker about this terrible situation.
Rare but often important.

We all work with computers all the time, and so we have a tendency to try to represent the universe in the simplest abstractions that capture the necessary detail for the project we are currently contemplating. When those abstractions fail to capture a necessary detail, it can be due to:

- a bad abstraction in the first place

- a new use for the representation that we hadn't thought about

- insufficient understanding of what we are trying to represent

I have seen all three of these situations repeatedly. They are all quite common.
That is trivially falsified, the prevalence of mental illness is not really related to the acceptance in society (outside of society declaring things to be a mental illness, e.g. homosexuality). For example in Germany the incidence of people missing work days for mental health reasons is higher in regions with less academic jobs (a milieu which tends to be more open to these topics) and in the formerly socialist parts (where there was a higher tabooization of mental health topics). Similar patterns exist for suicide.

I think I know what you get at, but it is important to differentiate between e.g. someone with social anxiety overcoming their anxiety to take part in society (the good way of "trying to be normal") and someone repressing what should actually be worked on (the bad way, hurting both the person, and, long term, society).

The important point with all things regarding the human mind (education, psychology etc.) is that one strictly can't infer what actually happens from outside observation alone. Let's say there exist two persons, A and B, and both play 6 hours of videogames a day. But person A is a perfectly healthy introvert, while with person B this actually is addictive behaviour concealing mental health problems the person hasn't found the strength to confront yet. It depends on how they feel while playing, and how they feel when not playing.
The title on HN is a bit misleading. You should use the original title of the article. According to the article, what requires an import permit is the "foreign 'data encryption technology employing a key length greater than 256 bits'". In reality, the encryption standards (SM1, SM2, SM3, SM4, etc) in China allows strong encryption. I don't see any clues stating that China forbids encryption technology with a key greater than 256 bits.
That's not what I'm doing but it seems possible you could watch refraction patterns and tell that there are submerged objects, but you'd need to know the water depth without that object there, as there'd be no great way to tell if the object is a submarine or a pile of sand. Also, most of these satellites pass over fairly rarely so wouldn't be super useful for tracking things that move. I'm mostly interested in finding the piles of sand :)

Moore's Law ended. We're just adding more cache to devices now. RAM speeds haven't increased in several years. PCIe 5.0 requires expensive circuit boards that no one can afford. GPUs are out of stock everywhere.

Maybe the next big thing is doing more with less. Rust and Zig come to mind.

> Why don’t real cities see millions of citizens fall into cults in a manner of months? How can they have conferences without (Gamergate-scale) harassment, or clubs that don’t turn people into propaganda-spewing automatons?

If I remember correctly Gamergate was a shitstorm on the internet. It primarily rejected certain media narratives around discrimination, racism and sexism, some of which can certainly be classified as propaganda. You might expect better behavior, or that proponents distance themselves from the worst of the worst, but I don't think that is realistic and appropriate given the indignation in the first place. There were enough shitstorms for worse causes in my opinion.

> If we are urban planners, then content moderators on the platforms are cops, judges, and juries rolled together

I believe some would like that very much.

> These people, who are typically underpaid and over-traumatized contract workers, have been given the impossible task of reviewing millions of potentially problematic posts

Correct, that has to be one of the worst jobs imaginable.

> As a society, we’ve evolved a combination of rules, norms, and design patterns that work, more or less, to rein in some kinds of terrible behavior.

The worst kind of propaganda that leads to foreign interventions with hundreds of thousands of dead people comes from legacy media outlets. Sorry, but no twitter thread ever had the significance of that. Comparing the danger of propaganda by random youtube personalities to this is an insult itself. I hope some moderator deletes the article.

All of the suggested features require user profiling and I would argue that providing safety is not the goal at all. I expect most platforms to profile users to the largest degree sadly, but I certainly don't want such a platform to be able to connect my account to any real persona. Why? Because of safety. Real one, with tangible benefits. Not these safety garden for children the author wants to promote that also subject the same kids to the most predatory forms of advertising and content baiting that is only slightly better than penis enlargement ads or promises of Nigerian princes.

First safety rule for online interaction should be to turn of your computer, make yourself a coffee and read a book. Then the world will look different already.

> either pressure the companies to do the right thing or persuade their workers, advertisers, or lawmakers to force them.

I don't want the government to provide the author with a job to be honest and influence the exchange of ideas at all. This will only end in one way and that is corporations dictating rules for public behavior. I know that some people support that and they will get hostility for that of course, because the net was better without them.
Drat. I didn’t find any money.
This isn’t true at all.

Mining involves guessing a salt which, when added to data for a single block’s with of transactions, makes the hash have a certain sum of zeros.

They are only the same in that they are using randomness to search for some number satisfying a given criteria. But, for example, you couldn’t use mining hardware to search for wallets with open balances. The mining hardware is specially optimized for one thing only.

>And they're left with peddling NFT's

Literally every argument against image NFTs is also an argument against art. Art is not a yield producing asset. Just like NFTs can be right-clicked and saved, indistinguishable to the naked eye reproductions of expensive paintings can be ordered relatively cheaply. The idea of the 'original' is a social abstraction, just like the idea of who's the real owner of a NFT is a social abstraction.

Exactly like physical art, image NFTs are fueled by a desire to own status symbols and the eternal need to launder money, in unknown proportions. They are objectively better than physical art at both. They are better status symbols because it's easier to show other people that you own expensive NFTs than it is with real art. It's enough if your ethereum address is publicly known and it's there. There's no fraud possible. With real art, you have to go out of your way to show it - maybe by inviting others to your home, but then they may wonder whether it's real or a reproduction.
For money laundering it's way easier to sell NFTs for big amounts anonymously than real art.

Those two fundamental properties also make it somewhat of an investment, if you can predict what people belonging to one, or both, of those groups are going to want in the future.

For those two reasons physical art is going to be less and less important.

>The "Web2" would be an empty space pretty soon. Yet it hasn't happened despite over a decade of hot-air

Considering your knowledge of such details as iota's hash functions, it's clear you're being intentionally misleading. Ethereum is 6 years old, and the technology to scale to global levels - zkrollups - only started to arrive in 2021.
Wonder if you have to do the Ask HN: format.

Personally probably not unless I can cash it out right away/I have that choice.

Also retirement is not something I really count on. My own plan is to make enough/invest it. That old FIRE idea. I have hopped around jobs wise I probably have random 401K's here and there with a few dollars in them.
This assumes a uniform key space. If PRNGs used to generate keys are biased, then there may be a way to exploit that bias.
+1 for Porkbun. I used to use Namecheap until I had a couple of negative experiences with their customer support team. I then left for Porkbun (and Cloudflare for some domains) and never looked back. Porkbun is cheaper than Namecheap in the long term, and their website is really straightforward.

SE3... Funny choice. The electrical zone in Sweden with the highest amount of nuclear. At this hour about 70% of the power comes from nuclear, 15% from hydro, and about 3% from wind. SE4 in south of Sweden has 0% nuclear, and is the zone with the highest energy cost and with the highest production from wind.

We are however also talking about two very different kind of prices. My numbers are what the customer is paying, which can be seen either on the website by the electric company or sites dedicated to it (https://www.eon.se/el/elpriser/aktuella and https://elen.nu/dagens-spotpris/se4-malmo/#). What you are describing is the price on the energy market Nord Pool, like those that can be read at (https://www.energimarknadsbyran.se/el/dina-avtal-och-kostnad...).
A very nice tool, but its important to learn the details. For example, how to require multiple args in one command/one arg in multiple command.

Also, I’ve found it very helpful to always have command run from local venv, rather than remote downloads. Downloading can lead to import errors.

Overall, a very, very nice tool, but one you have to put some effort into learning.
”finished” is just a label, all software can be worked on infinitely, at some point production usage HAS to start
Even taking the smaller value of 463439129036942 billion years at 1 billion/second (and therefore 463439129036942000 years at a quadrillion/second), at $10 / hour / PH/s, that’s $4.06e22, or ≈ 480 million years of Earth’s 2020 global nominal GDP.
Beautifully executed. I aspire to solve my problems with such grace. It's difficult and i fail often but not without trying.
These were definitely a thing among my countryside friends. I grow up on the edge of a Swedish city. They always seemed be undergoing some repair or modification. At least upgrading the sound if nothing more daring. Since they only make sense to drive from 15 to 17, they change owners frequently and are often 20+ years old in the first place.
I feel that there needs to be more whitespaces for ASCII to work, i.e. ietf makes nice ASCII graphs but those are hand crafted. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc6587#section-1
Fully agree. I meet with it mostly in typescript’s linter, but recursively having to comment out things is just simply terrible. Of course it is great for prod, but for debug it is very questionable.
>How much work would it be to port over the C# SVG→TinyVG converter to Rust based on resvg?

Probably a day, as long as you know Rust. I can take a look into it if you're interested. usvg (the SVG parser of resvg) is specifically designed to convert a real world SVG with all its quirks into a machine readable, minimal SVG/XML.

One thing to note is that usvg doesn't preserve text at the moment (will be converted into paths automatically) and Quadratic curves.

PS: I also have a longer, but still unfinished rant [0] over SVG complexity if you're interested.

Astronomical. You could convert every computer into existence into hunting for used private keys, and run them for the lifetime of the universe, and you’d be unlikely to find even one used key.
This is one of my favourite articles! But as someone who has recently become interested in botany, what I find really crazy about this is that there are so many different ways for plants to become trees. A listing (surely incomplete):

• Normal trees, like what you see every day, with bark and wood and so on

• Monocots like yucca and aloe and Draecena, which have no bark and become woody through ‘abnormal secondary growth’ (which I don’t properly understand but has something to do with wood development being scattered throughout the plant instead of in a ring around the edge), and tend to avoid branching except when the growing tip is disturbed

• Other monocots like palm trees and Strelitzias, where the ‘wood’ is actually the bases of dead leaves wrapped very very tightly together, firmly enough to keep the plant standing up

• Fern trees, which… I’m not at all sure about, but seem to work on the same principle where leaf bases sorta get fused together. But the Dicksonia in my front yard seems to extrude some sort of thin fiber — does that perhaps help to hold the trunk together in some way?

• And then there’s things like papaya and banana and giant horsetails, which become trees without any wood at all, and have presumably innovated other ways of holding themselves up

It’s interesting to walk around my neighbourhood and realise that many of the trees I see have evolved almost completely different methods to get to the same result!
I would happily wager against you.

I made a similar comment further up the page: I think some people massively overestimate the amount of general knowledge people have about biology. Like the article says, a lot of people are still at the 'did you know a tomato is a fruit??!' stage.
Similarly, I spent ~£2000 on having a wonderful home cinema setup (meticulously organised kodi library on a dedicated HTPC, surround-sound, projector) -- but it’s mostly collecting dust because chromecast’ing netflix from my phone to the TV is so much more convenient.

I’m really hoping that Matter’s open casting protocol takes off, and we can get a new generation of software that combines the best of "self-hosted open-source interoperable ecosystem" and “one tap on the phone to have something playing on the big screen”...
My favourite aspect of this is that the name EPA is coming from a long-since closed chain of stores selling low-quality products, and the teenagers driving these vehicles have for sure never seen one.
Either you assume that the attacker can break 256 bit encryption, then probably yes. Or you assume that they can't, then, why bother?
This is like when you learned programming 20 years ago and realized that if you randomly generated a 300x300 pixel image you could get a nude picture. Exciting until you learned how to calculate the odds…
Generally, all examples you mentioned don’t have competition or compete in different things than UX, so there you go.

One example, banks, especially old big banks. They compete first and foremost on public perception of them being secure. As we know, security and usability are almost always diametrically opposed, so it’s a concept of a bank that makes banking hard to use. Some companies are trying to change it, but it’s hard.
Yeah, var/type name makes much more sense than ambiguity.
I found this a while back, but even though the public addresses can receive ETH, I believe they can't be claimed due to something like the private keys being invalid for transaction signing purposes.
The few numbers for the loans that have been public have been somewhere between 2 and 3%
Banks are a something else entirely when it comes to art of horrible customer service. The other day, I noticed a "security alert" when logging into my bank account. "Someone logged into this account from an unknown device. If it wasn't you, panic" basically. I wanted to write a suggestion that they add an IP address and timestamp to make that message useful and actionable, but they don't even have a contact email address, just phone numbers (even for the IT department!). The "chatbot" doesn't connect to actual humans.
Only if everyone takes that attitude.
