Of the management maybe, but it's not like the Intel staff who managed to pretty much stay competitive with the cutting edge despite them being stuck on 14nm for years forgot how to design a memory controller.
On the other hand, plenty of game modders have started a productive career from modding.

In an ideal world, I'd agree it would be better that that energy would go into free software. But in our current world, if there's a proprietary game someone is hooked on to the point they get excited about modding when they otherwise wouldn't and that modding leads to a career or even just skill development and perhaps connections with other modders, then overall it seems like it's still a productive use of time, if not entirely an equitable one from a monetary perspective.

This would happen on my late 2013 MBP using its original charger. Playing a CPU/GPU intensive game would result in a slow net draw from the battery.
No one? Some people were cared enough about this use case to push it through, so I don't think it's no one. Minority maybe, but not no one.
ChessCraft is a chess variant AI sandbox, with online play and sharing. The full game is free and ad-free, the revenue model is patronware IAP. This has been my passion project for three years, first on Google Play and now released on Steam mid-December. This month was my first with about 500 in income.

It’s down to brute force raw power and performance per watt nowadays. Apple mostly wins the latter but the former is inevitably going to kill demand for those climate unfriendly servers due to cooling and powering problems. We await the high end Mac systems with much interest.
It's always telling that these benchmarks are done vs. old Intel chips inside the Mac and not the current competitors like latest AMD Ryzen series.

Apple chips still win, but nowhere near with the same margin as those breathless marketing posts are trying to advertise.
I think a weekly (or even monthly) option would give better results, daily is just too noisy.
In theory it would be simple to provide a "cloudworkers cooperative" kind of service that just bundles the outbound mail so that traffic is sufficiently large to be whitelisted by the big providers. The two biggest problems are A. Scaling up sufficiently without attracting Spammers. Because even a single Spammer can ruin your reputation forever. So ideally you'd have a tight knit group of friends or similar. Even then you could hardly assure than no one ever gets hacked. B. Edge Cases. Even if your US or West European Traffic is sufficient to be whitelisted by all major Providers, how do you ensure that the occasional Email to a customer of an Indonesian ISP does not get blocked by their provider...
You don't need to run your own email server for this. I do this with a catch-all in Fastmail for $50/year or something. I'm pretty sure Gmail and most others can do this too.
with gmail you can do:

foo+anything => redirected to foo
foo.something => redirected to foosomething (so . is not the same as +)

The + isn't always accepted in dumb email checks though, and spammers know about it...
Alright, greybeards, might be time for a shave. (I'm going to.)
The Asus probably also runs hotter and requires more use of fans. And I doubt the battery will last as long on intensive tasks.

A big part of the M1 performance per watt efficiency is the SoC integrated design. I'm no motherboard designer but I think it would be nigh on impossible to replicate it using discrete component systems (which I assume is what the Asus is).

Will caveat my comment here with a note that I haven't looked at comparisons for a while, only around the time the M1 was launched.
So, you could take the midpoint of non overlapped edge segments? And split that segment as more arrows leave from it? Sounds like a good further step.

Another one would be reducing the amount of crossover between different arrows.
Can you host it on vultr? Just $2.50/mo for half a gig of RAM instance.
Thank you for the idea. We haven’t yet built “share a link to directly join a group” but it fits well with the vision and we’ll do it, just didn’t make the initial public beta scope.
I am surprised you're making $1000/mo when you're not printing and sending out the cards. Have you thought of doing that? Would it make it more profitable?
Klara and the Sun by Kazuo Ishiguro. The firs impression is it seems to be a sci-fi novel, but it is actually much more about humans than robots or future. Started slow but easy to get through. A great read.
Love that, too! I've always been amazed that spammers aren't able (to my knowledge) to defeat such a simple scheme by removing the . or + in the local part.
Should macOS and Solaris also not be considered "UNIX derived" or "UNIX like" because of their use of launched and SMF?
I also get an endless amount of email for a few different people with the same name as me at my Gmail from 2005. I used to try to deal with it but now it's just amusing, especially the photos, family chain emails etc. My name alike is Canadian so it's a little glimpse across the border
Exact same thoughts. Order placed!
Since those high-end Mac systems won't be able to run in datacenters, what's the point there? You're pretty much at the mercy of whatever Intel, AMD and other ARM manufacturers release.
I wish I could make this the accepted answer
Depends if you feel the thermal constraints are inherent to the form factor, or simply sloppy engineering.
Yet another project that promotes the idea of injecting JavaScript from another domain into your website.

I am so tired of this terrible practice being promoted by all these fancy front-end projects.

At least we can now block this stuff with the Access-Control-Allow-Origin headers. I just don't want to have to explain keep explaining to junior developers and designers over and over why loading JS from another domain terrible for security and privacy and does not improve performance.

I assure you, books and libraries need maintenance too. The old books has to be reprinted if you want to keep using them as actual books (e.g. read) instead of museum exhibits.
Never understood why people put stickers on their laptops, to me it seems like a cargo cult. Oh, you’re using this trendy library? Are you a brogrammer or a programmer? Why is libraries and technologies trendy anyway, so much time has been wasted building something using the wrong tool for the job. It also ruins the design of the laptop, just like a phone case does. Maybe I’m just old.
If someone is just one deployment behind you, it may be time to work smarter, not harder.

I don't think you get a static IPv4 address with that instance.
If you have any neighbourgh on your block that has sent spam, then the entire IP block gets a bad reputation. I moved away from OVH because of this. I no longer get the issue )on Vultr) but still get 100% blocked by outlook.com and blocked by Gmail if I'm the one initiating the conversation (I can mail people once they've emailed me at least once)
Interesting (but not surprising) how the color matches camouflage used in each region.
As a person running his own email system, I think it's taking more efforts from people to convince everyone to don't run their email systems than managing it effectively, and I don't have any bouncing even towards gmail et similia. As a company the only concern for me is not managing an email, is more to give third party private for profit companies access to all my communications (even if I guess sending it to other unaware people using gmail / 365 has the same effect), but for me it's crazy that the world has accepted that
I just can't imagine why someone would waste such a high proportion of their youth, only to realize they're probably exclusively driven by arbitrary work in the first place. Wew lads, I'm retired at 35, guess I'll find a hobby for the first time. Oh wait tho, I'm fat and depressed from selling all of my life so far, and have to spend the next 5 - 10 years undoing that while everyone else I meet has developed their life with some kind of balance. All those hobbies I could have done while I had energy, health, and friends, are kind of out the window, and the only people in my dating pool are divorcees with kids!
In my view it's about the interface. Any utopian community must interface with the rest of the currently-not-utopian world. I suspect the utopian aspect can only be maintained if that interface is very small and restricted. Otherwise the property-based wider society will grow to dominate and maximally exploit the utopia, as is its nature. This concept is explored in The Dispossessed by Ursula K. Le Guin.
Honest question: why do you surf the web without an adblocker these days? Are there technical constraints that limit your browser/plugin choice? Is it a moral stance ("I want ad-funded sites to make money if I consume their content")?
Yeah that dot thing is weird with gmail. Could very well be the reason. Good luck reaching a human to fix it though!
> It's actually incredible how many modern designs I see today that are portraying a table, but have recreated the <table> element (and its associated <tr> and <td> elements) in a soup of flex layout divs and such

To play devil’s advocate, <table> can be frustratingly inadequate even for tabular data, if you want to add some bells and whistles.

Things like resizable/reorderable columns aren’t too tricky, but if you want things like sticky rows or columns things get very messy very quickly.

I’m convinced that the negative qualities of modern web development stem from the built-in controls being largely stuck in 1995.
I want to, but I can’t afford getting my email silently swallowed when I’m contacting attorneys, etc.
> nothing except photos you uploaded to iCloud was to be scanned.

My point is that the difference between the approach from Google and Apple is that in one case (Google), we have a tech level blockage, it's not currently possible for Google to even do that.

On the other hand (Apple), the "blockage" is policy or "promise". That's far less reliable than the tech just not existing.
I assume 2021 and not 2012, right?

I have also driven stick shift cars my whole life, and I've only had one that would let you start it without depressing the clutch. It was a 1985 Honda Accord. I had never driven stick before, so when I went to start the engine, the car immediately lurched forward and stalled.

Every car I've had since then has required me to depress the clutch before it will attempt to turn over the engine.
Yes, it has been under development since 2018.

Its name "diagon" has not been a great choice. It means (Diagram online). It is not really easy to discover it on google search unfortunately.
Note that while people here are gushing over performance, it's worth mentioning that you need to run ARM64 virtualized OSes (both Windows and Linux) for it to work.

Getting Intel x64/x86 VMs to work is... fun and they don't perform nearly as well as you'd expect from the gushing praise.

So double check if your virtualization use-case actually is fine with running ARM guests.
> The employer has to put extra effort into communication and documentation.

Not just the employer. The employees also need to put extra effort into their own communication and documentation. This needs to be actively mentored to the employees and included as part of performance management with clear expectations.

A common mistake for first-time remote companies or managers is to think that the managers alone can make up for the communication deficits inherent to remote work. Not so. It’s everyone’s job. Managers should be setting examples and mentoring everyone though.
Not the best choice of title. I didn't realize until I got to the end that this was about large organizations. No doubt for a large university or company this is true.
Wow I hadn't considered that. Something like Google photos that interprets and presumably OCRs every photo that comes through it is at risk.

I tried office 365 for email this year but couldn’t get the marketing emails from Microsoft under control. No matter how much time I spent trawling through the settings menus. Almost every email I got was about some security update or promotion from some ms product I did not use and had no intention of using. And I was paying for O365 too!

I'm sorry that your mother had to go through that. My partner is a neurologist and she hates having to give an ALS diagnosis. It fills her with dread when symptoms align with a possible ALS diagnosis. If she doesn't have a conclusion diagnosis she will sometimes not even suggest that something might be ALS because of the suicide risk. Personally, I think we will have a treatment for it in my lifetime.
Even a service as big as Microsoft's has pretty bad spamfiltering though. It's slightly better than an untuned SpamAssassin config but it's really not a lot better.

A lot of legit emails end up in my spam box.
> Don't work on FOSS you aren't using yourself anymore.

More-or-less agreed.

> This heuristic isn't fully fleshed yet

I'd perhaps extend it as:

“Don't work on FOSS you or people you sufficiently care about aren't using anymore.”

Who qualifies as those you care about and why is an entirely personal thing and I'll not judge anyone's choice there. They could be friends, they could represent a cause you support, they could be randoms and you just get off on feeling helpful, they could be important and you like to be associated, you could be being paid to care, etc.

Also it goes without saying, but I'll say it anyway as I'm in a wordy mood, if you are enjoying working on something even if you don't use the output I'd still consider that to be finding some use in what-ever it is.
It's by design. The option calc-multiplication-has-precedence controls this behavior.
To my ears the author is describing corruption in society. I often wonder if America is getting more corrupt or if we just hear about it much more now due to the internet and social media. I think it's the later.
Nah, most of the performance comes from:

- Massive caches

- Really really good power efficiency due to good manufacturing node

- Massive RAM bandwidth

- Very fast I/O performance of the builtin SSD

It's a big, expensive chip to manufacture and it pays off with overall performance.
The thing is though, afaik there isn't really any penalty for repaying the loan early. Like I have a 72mo on my car, although I expect it to be resolved long before then. I was originally going to do a 60mo but the finance guy was basically like, the longer loan gives you way more financial flexibility with very little downside.. so yeah.
> Don't sign abstract messages, sign bags of bytes.

Isn't the relevant question, "what are the bytes that are being signed?" That's what the specification seems to be answering here.

I believe it's implicit that the signature is actually of a hash of the message itself, which is why they need to serialize the message in a deterministic fashion, because otherwise the hash would be different in different circumstances for the same message. If you want to validate the signature, you need to make sure that the hash being signed is of the same exact string that you are verifying.

> requires canonical representations, a major PITA and source of bugs

Yes, absolutely, especially with regards to JSON, which doesn't have a fully deterministic serialization standard. The scuttlebutt specification seems to assume that JSON.stringify() will produce a consistent output, but that is not really the case, per my understanding, at least not with regards to objects.

From the Scuttlebutt specification:

> The canonical format is defined by the ECMA-262 6th Edition section JSON.stringify. For an example, see how the above message is formatted.

JSON object serialization in Javascript depends on the insertion order of the members of an object, so if you somehow change the ordering in which your keys are updated as the object is built, you will get a different string output, even if the data of the underlying object is the same. And this is just within the JavaScript runtime—if you are implementing this using another programming language, you can't just rely on the ECMA standard to determine the ordering of your object members at the time of serialization.

If I recall properly, JSON serialization is ambiguous in the specification in a variety of ways, which results in different implementations outputting subtly different strings, even under ordinary circumstances.

It seems weird that you would write a formal, generalized protocol specification relying on the idiosyncratic implementation details of JavaScript, for such an important thing as cryptographic signatures, as the Scuttlebutt specification seems to do here.
Since they own duck.com, you wonder why l.duck.com doesn't redirect to the correct URL (or lite.duck.com).

Hello again Cory!

If anyone is curious, czue and I chatted about how he built and hosts Place Card Me at https://runninginproduction.com/podcast/39-place-card-me-let.... Basically a full break down of his tech stack, lessons learned, etc.. It also touches on his Django SaaS example app he linked above too.

Really nice to see your Django boilerplate is pulling in those figures, congrats.
Some ISPs provide VPNs on their AS at cheapish price. For instant milkywan in France provide one with public constant IPv4 for 5€/month in France.
It obviously make the whole setup much more complicated, because it leads to a kinda multi-homing setup, but I think it's still reasonable.

> just like a phone cover does.

If the designers of the phone want to provide a reasonably priced cover that will hold my credit cards and protect the screen then perhaps they can make one that complements the device; and perhaps I'll buy it. Until then I'll have to make do with what the third party suppliers can deliver, there is no way I'm going to carry my mobile without having it in a case.
I believe you can insert dots as you wish but not use it like the plus sign. So abc@gmail.com is the same as a.b.c@gmail.com but abc.new@gmail.com is another account than abc@gmail.com.

Metro Exodus Enhanced Edition uses RT for basically all lighting, doesn't it? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NbpZCSf4_Yk

Same with Minecraft RTX https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/updates/ray-tracing

Though both still calculate the lighting over several frames, so if you want to be pedantic you could argue that it's not strictly real time.
I put one on my work laptop to distinguish it from other colleague's laptops. Zero stickers on my personal laptop though.
Remote != home.

Home _is_ distracting, unless you have black belt concentration ability, and will power.

For a long time I’ve worked from a coworking place near my house.

Before that, when I wasn’t earning as much, I’d work from cafes.

Some days when the weather was especially nasty I chose to stay home and work from home.

Now I have a kid, and I’m forced to work from home due to corona, and my productivity definitely suffers. But I’m being extra aggressively defensive for my work space, and that helps!

A vanishingly small portion of people for which an exception would obviously be made.

This is perhaps the most naive thing I've seen on HN. I hope you never have to deal with a serious addiction, where a simple act like "putting down the fork" evolves into requiring Herculean willpower.

As someone that made the journey from morbidly obese to a normal BMI, losing 80lbs, I can assure you it was not "just a lifestyle choice" - it was, by a significant margin, the hardest thing I have ever done and ever will do.

Absolutely not comparable to getting the jab.
That would be awesome. However, this sounds a bit hard to do ;-)

Would you had any ideas how to do it?
I guess:
1. some custom logic very difficult to write for every translators.
2. some genetic algorithm to reconstruct the input, given the output, using the string levenshtein distance.

Every translators are independants, so this would require
Pretty much. Remember how close they are geographically. IANAG but the gulf stream is probably the only significant difference. Also, they probably should say GB not UK.

Using a CDN is convenient, but entirely optional. You can host it yourself with the same effect.

For open source web projects, a public CDN is a vital tool that lets users try a project with minimal investment. That it’s used by so many people says a lot about convenience and ease of use.
There is probably a "minimum purchase annual volume" that goes along with a commercial account.
Who do you use? After seeing all the horror stories posted on HN, I have been worried about getting banned from $MegaCorp randomly and would like to minimize the blast radius if that were to happen.
Thank you, good observations. Yes, we have designed and built the system in a way that can be sustainable with a reasonably small investment or number of paying users. It’s very intentional to not have pressure for quick growth and “monetizing”, and we can take a bit of time to figure it out.

I agree with your “note-taking or collaborative” sentiment. We aim to provide a different experience from many other chat apps. More… calm? Professional? Boring? Serious? Respectful? We haven’t quite figured out the adjectives, but yes, it is intentional.

A better question, should we change the license of all FOSS to require companies to pay a support fee so that a lot more people can work on FOSS full-time? Or maybe, should we create a company like redhat that hires people to work on all FOSS projects and is supported by industry and governments?
