As part of the biennial internal hackathon for MongoDB employees, I've created an extension to the C# driver to add support for Atlas Search. When you add the NuGet package to your project, it will seamlessly integrate with the driver, and you'll be able to use a C#-friendly interface to Atlas Search just like any other feature of MongoDB. As of Beta 2, the extension is feature-complete, and all non-deprecated, non-preview features of Atlas Search should be supported. While this is being released as an experimental MongoDB Labs offering and is not an officially supported MongoDB product, I intend to maintain it over the long term and strive for the highest possible quality. If you encounter any bugs or missing features, please feel free to file issues in the project's GitHub repo at https://github.com/mongodb-labs/mongo-csharp-search so that they can be remedied in future releases.
Because even if your name is on it, the idea that “you” made it is not really true. Someone made materials for you, somebody taught you the skills needed to make the thing. There was a whole functioning society that allowed the work to be made in the first place. The society was also the thing that enforced the property rights for some arbitrary length of time. At some point, the society that helped create the work should share in the spoils.
I firmly believe, like I said, that nearly all human expression is derivative. It's almost all "fan fiction" when it comes down to it. There aren't very many "primary" works that can't have their influences traced back to prior works. The current copyright regime just gets to choose who is allowed to make the "fan fiction" and when.
Damn, first video I open is of castrating piglets. Can't believe it's done while the animal is awake and with no sedatives. Brutal.

I'd rather have a farm raising plants than do that kind of stuff.
> the original content from Netflix, Prime, et al is available globally and the legacy content is not

This is not always true, and it depends on the nature of the “Original”. There’s really two classes: Originals fully owned by Netflix, and ones produced in partnership with a traditional TV network. The latter are branded as Netflix Originals everywhere except their home country (where they are carried by the local network instead).

> On Prime the only things available outside the US are Amazon Originals.

This isn’t true; the UK also has a lot of licensed content, if you have Prime in the UK. My understanding is they do in other markets where they offer Prime as well, but you only get access to the full library when you’re in the region where you have Prime, unlike Netflix.

That may be part of their content licensing, but that could also be a commercial decision by Amazon. (eg I also don’t get other Prime benefits from Amazon.de with my .co.uk Prime subscription.)
While not endorsing or rejecting your list completely, I'd just like to point out for others that "innovating regulation" is a thing - to the extent that a large corporation can lobby for new, burdensome regulation that only companies of a certain size can afford to comply with, they create large barriers to entry into markets and crush the margins of smaller organizations. This is the case in all industries, not just farming. Anytime you see a corporation advocating for regulation, the first thought shouldn't be "oh, that's admirable," it should be, "how will this affect their competitive landscape?"

So is the underlying detail that is not stated here is?

1. even though arxiv is preprint's, they have some ability to categorize things and in a sense allowing things to be categorized is a way of soft-filtering out stuff "they don't like"
https://arxiv.org/archive/astro-ph

2. astro-ph arxiv preprints are potentially considered better than either being uncategorized, or even worse, being put in some category that may be associated with crackpots?

So essentially the guys saying, hey I'm not a crackpot? I'm just having a hard time understanding what the context here is other than "I submitted my paper and said its astrophysics, and the category maintainers said no its not". I had no idea there was this sort of tempest in a teacup happening related to arxiv categories.. couldn't the paper just be "uncategorized" and its like, who cares?

I feel like a lot of these issues come up when people don't have a habit of writing often. Especially when you're starting off, quantity beats quality.

* If you don't write often, you won't have other things to link to
* If you don't write often, you'll have a habit of trying to make something perfect
* If you don't write often you obsess over things
* If you don't write often then it's hard to throw away a witty one-liner because you aren't sure when you'll get to use it next.

I feel like this is arguing word semantics without attempting to answer the question. I was talking about within a society that already has copyright. Let me ask it another way: assuming that we have a copyright system, why should my copyrights ever expire? Why should our system not protect my ability to make money on my work, and allow me to choose who inherits the income stream and becomes the future owner of the work? Money and property can be inherited and doesn’t revert to public ownership, why should IP? (Again, note I’m asking for discussion’s sake and for clarity, not suggesting my personal beliefs or advocating a specific policy.)

I feel like “default is that they belong to everyone” is a framing that doesn’t quite make sense, it’s mis-using the word “belong”. The less loaded way to phrase what you’re saying is that without copyright, there’s nothing preventing someone from copying my work, not that it’s somehow inherently everyone’s property (which is literally to say that it’s no-one’s property.)
This exactly. They use progressive language to create this image for themselves and their role is only to serve as controlled opposition and prevent any challenge to the current economic order from occurring.

Being a Democrat these days is like being in a “union” that your bosses set up just to try and convince you that you had representation when they were deciding what you were going to “win” from “organizing” ahead of time.

This is why I dislike propaganda aimed at supporting them in television etc. No matter how nice the individual thing sounds, it serves to reinforce this institution who’s only mission in life is to fuck you over and continue extracting wealth from you and your family.
I think you mean hypothesis, a theory is typically proven and accepted as true. This looks to be based on a computer simulation of a chaotic system

If you're making $60K/year, I'm not sure that it's reasonable for you to have a $600/000 mortgage, completely apart from the down payment. You might be able to afford it with a 0% loan, but there aren't many of those...
I would be more sympathetic to cost arguments if they were transparent about it.

In the end I think this starts to raise important questions about sources of costs and benefits of a journal article and who should pay (not about AAS in particular necessarily but in general).
How about just permitting copyright on real people as a non transactable property?

From my understanding, the grief with IP law comes from corporate activity. So if only people can own copyright and the only thing they can do with it is license it for creative purposes everything should clear up right?

EDIT: s/transitive/transactable/
I get my beef directly from a farmer (https://www.mountainrunfarm.com/) and he has not raised prices since 2017. If you can buy your beef at least 200 pounds at a time, and ideally a whole beef (~625 pounds) you can get grass fed beef for roughly $4.50-$5.00/pound including processing.
Copyright hasn't been extended because anyone thought it was in the public interest; it's been extended because monied corporate interests paid to have it extended, and there just isn't much political will in the people at large to oppose it because they have no clear conception of what they are losing. The vast majority of them are never going to create derivative works, and as long as the content is relatively cheap to consume, they aren't going to complain if copyright extends to infinity.

20 litres for a sedate software developer in an air conditioned office, yes. If that dev goes to the gym after work they'd need more! Let alone crossing a desert in the heat.

I'm probably doing 3 litres a day of pure water (plus water from coffees / food etc.) in 30 degree temps, but spending most of that time inside with air-con. It's probably not enough as I am pissing orange still.

Edit: someone like me wouldn't hike in deserts though, so by survivorship bias people that do it often probably need less water to stay cool. But 2l/day even if walking only dusk/dawn seems tight still.

I don't understand your point of view.

If the tax code says that I can obtain a tax credit for investing in solar panels, I buy a shitload of solar panels and get a massive tax credit. That's legal and also deemed moral. It was codified into the tax code as something society wants me to do. If I take all of my profits at the end of the year and spend a pile of cash buying equipment under section 179 of the tax code, I might very well end-up paying zero taxes and my even get a refund. If I amortize equipment over several years based on the schedule mandated by the tax code and, as a result, obtain tax benefits, it will reduce or eliminate a large chunk of taxes due.

All of this, and more, much more, is in the tax code. Society, through our representatives, decided these are worthwhile investments that result in benefits for all. Enough so that they are incentivized through deductions or tax credits. This is moral, ethical and absolutely 100% legal.

You website error is a ridiculous attempt to equate deductions and credits that exist in the tax code with stealing. How dare you? If you think I should not be entitled to a tax deduction when I choose to spend $250K in equipment at the end of the year, then go talk to your representatives and have these provisions removed. Until then, stop vilifying perfectly legal and REQUIRED tax accounting regulations. I say "required" because your accountant has the legal responsibility to manage your tax filing in accordance with the law. I could sue my accounting firm if they systematically neglected to file taxes in accordance with the law.

I love it when people go on and on about businesses paying zero taxes. It reveals complete ignorance of how money, business and the tax system works. Some businesses wouldn't even be viable without the tax code codifying what society wants them to do. Solar and electric vehicles are perfect examples of this.
Ask HN: What's the best note taking app? (a new years resolution)
I'm looking to get my tasks and thoughts more organized this year and alleviate mental storage bandwidth and do a better job at creating lists, writing down my thoughts when I wake up / before bed, and general organization.

What's the best note taking app, excluding built-in Apple Notes and Evernote? Fully Apple ecosystem user (iPad, iPhone, MacBook Pro). Prefer handwriting (with Apple Pencil on iPad) but also would like typing support on macOS and devices when needed.

Open to premium and paying solutions, prefer one-time though vs subscription. Thanks!
Okay, so if Jason Momoa was the one who auditioned best for T'Challah you would say that's a good casting? Because I would say having the supposed leader of a kingdom of black people look completely different from all the people in that kingdom is really poor casting.

> Why are you assuming her blackness means she must have been shoehorned into the role?

Perhaps because every other Nilfgaardian is white. If Nilfgaardians were a mixture then it would be a good casting. Just like if all Nilfgaardians were black then casting a white person as Fringilla would also be garbage casting.

You are free to assume in your fantasy world that outside appearance has no impact on story telling in a TV show but I and many others in the Witcher fanbase have opinions to the contrary.

Most likely it was Babbit. Which is... possibly feasible for someone to be carrying back then. As it could have been used(in a pinch) to repour bearings in the field. Or maybe he was simply just carrying lead for weights used for getting lines up into trees.

Same here. It even mispronounced the basic french words, and inserted some background music similar to what you can hear on the CDs with exercises that come with those "foreign language for beginners" textbooks.
> Samsung, TSMC, and Global Foundries will happily make Intel chips.

And how long will it take to "port" those designs to another fab?

It's not a matter of "make install."

Yes, everything comes together with tools, but every one of those tools and its inputs is verging on full-custom and those designs were tweaked with the characteristics of those tools in mind.

The folks who know how to do that work are currently working on new products (either for Intel or someone else), so are you willing to slip those products?

That's an oversimplification. Pre-existing notions about warrior conduct certainly played a role, but "samurai" were a class (bordering on caste); attitudes descending from bushido were a top-down mandate, enforced by the officer class, not something widespread in common civilian life (save for knowledge of how one is supposed to act towards high-ranking personnel).

If you think that the domestic propaganda machine wasn't running at mach speed in order to shape public perceptions to what would be most beneficial to the Imperial Army and Navy, I don't know what to say. They definitely were, and they definitely pushed, from multiple angles, the idea that surrendering would result in a worse spiritual, material, physical, and psychological outcome than the alternatives (take your pick of whichever motivates you most effectively).

I think I was around 10 years old when I noticed an old x86 (not a 286 -- my god I remember the excitement when that beast first came out) was lying around.

I somehow just liked it. It had MS-DOS. So I learned that. I'm not sure if it had Basic. But it had a manual, and the manual talked about x86 assembly language, and gave examples of how to write programs using the debug command from the command line.

I was hooked. For a while. It was so interesting. I learned about interrupts and how to get the computer to do things. At that age, all I wanted to do was draw pretty colors and lines on the screen -- most of the examples (if I recall correctly) were for "business" apps, like accounting, or database entry.

So I have the hardcore story that I started with assembly at age 10! Haha. But when a 286 arrived, with QBasic on it, I got a book, "Idiots Guide To QBasic" -- that had the same color scheme aesthetic as a Yellowpages, and learned how to draw pretty colors and lines. It was pretty fun. I remember the first modems too, the sound they made, and when 56K was a big thing. I think there was a 14.4K at some point too :)

What motivated me to contine? I don't know--it was just interesting. I just found it fun. Making stuff. Come alive. On the screen. It was pretty fucking cool
I write golang, and am a big fan, however it lacked/lacks some features that i would expect in a modern language.

- Lack of generics(coming very soon) was a huge problem for a long time and resulted in masses of duplicated code, and shonky reimplememtations rather than battle tested reusable implementations.

- Lack of sum types, which is particularly frustrating with go's error handling model (which I happen to be a fan of, mostly). The state of a return value depends on another return value in many cases. There is nothing in the language stopping me from using the value returned from a function that has returned an error. Even c++ has a (half baked) solution for this with optional.

- go's error handling has a major issue; it forces my model to be able to represent invalid state (see above). Because go doesn't let me have a sum type, I'm forced to return a "valid" return value alongside the error value, which means that state has to be representing in my code.

- repetition. Contrary to best practices in every other programming language, the advice given for go on so is frequently "its not that much work to implement the X yourself". Now instead of using an existing well supported library I'm maintaining my own X.

- cgo. Performance is terrible, its completely unique compared to every other FFI style system (e.g. see dotnet), and it doesn't work with MSVC.

> that took into account & understood the practical tradeoffs Go is making.

Just because the language had made decisions because of tradeoffs doesn't make it immune from criticism. If it's OK to criticise c++ for not breaking backwards compatibility (vector<bool> comes to mind), it's OK to criticise go for its shortcomings.

Ask HN: What is one learnable skill you wish was more common in job applicants?
HN, what is ONE learnable skillset you wish was more common in applicants to jobs at your company?

We all take for granted the various views we have about skills versus demand, and hiring ads always show the “bucket list” but never say “We want more applicants with a focus on skill XYZ this time around”. So, for those of you that have hired or are hiring in the past year, what is the one skill you wish more applicants had experience with, over all other skills that they could learn?

- Please choose one skill; no ties, no top three, no shopping lists. Picking one is hard, but it’s worth it.

- I’d especially enjoy hearing from YC startups that posted hiring ads on HN this past year.

- Sample answers: C# operations, git rebase, resolving differences through compromise, understanding EDR/XDR
I don't see the big issue. There is no other way in Linux or Posix to open a file asynchronously (not sure about closing). Dan Bernstein complained about that 20 years ago(?) and io_uring finally fixes it. Before that, runtimes with lightweight processes/threads (Erlang, GHC) used a Posix threadpool to open files in the background. That seems just as messy as using io_uring, which at least keeps everything in the same thread.
