I lusted after the 68k back when I owned a TRS-80 Coco. Circa 1984 a number of machines with advanced graphics came out based on the 68k such as the Apple Macintosh, Atari ST, Commodore Amiga, and Sinclair QL, not to mention some 'workstation' class machines such as the Sun 3.

On paper the 68k was an attractive machine with lots of registers and the ability to access more memory in a more comfortable way than the low-cost microcomputers (that added bankswitching to evade the 64k limit in later iterations) and the IBM PC (which had a segmentation scheme that in some ways annoying but can also be a lot of fun for the assembly language programmer)

In practice there must have been something wrong with the 68k because even Motorola gave up on it and all of the computer lines based on it either went extinct or made a transition to RISC architecture (Apple to Motorola's Power PC, Sun to SPARC.)

I'd love to hear the real story of why Motorola abandoned the 68k.

Opposite for me. The wifi in my office beats out my USB C adapter by a factor of 4.

Wifi is great, consumer grade routers are not though.
But with mobile apps, you can cache more assets on the client and in the case if iOS, as much work as Apple does to optimize WebKit. Objective C/Swift is still much faster.

Mobile apps are also more bloated than needed. But at least you only have to load them once.

Then again, client side frameworks started taking off in 2012.

At least the plugin guy was reasonable-ish. That does sounds like a really odd experience. It does pay to always check all of the dependencies you are using and their terms. When I was younger I got hit by limits when using a free tier of a service, but they just throttled us which lost us users.

Not everything is a server. And not everything that even is a server can be upgraded.

"Normal" SSH keys will work for (pretty much) all systems that support SSH. And the ones that don't will certainly never support U2F.
Here is an example:

Oil was an annoying sticky substance until the liquid-fuelled internal combustion engine was invented in 1876. This invention turned it into the most valuable resource in the world for the next 150 years.

That invention turned useless goo into gazillions of wealth.
Bummer, I guess I need someone to vouch for me/my comment in order to reach Ask HN:

> There is no tradeoff, [Zstd] is always better.

Well of course there’s the tradeoff in memory usage, utterly irrelevant on a desktop and probably even on a server, but you’re never decompressing a Zstandard file (compressed with standard options) on an STM32 (36 to 144 MHz ARM Cortex-M) micro or a similar RAM-impoverished but not entirely wimpy system. That is no secret, though, IIRC part of the original motivation for Zstandard was that modern hardware makes old window size choices obsolete.

A less obvious point is that a modern implementation of Deflate is, if not necessarily always faster, not as catastrophically slow compared to Zstandard as Zlib[1]. (In other benchmarks I’ve seen libdeflate be something like half again as slow as Zstandard, but at least it’s not multiple times slower.)

I've had a pair of Huawei FreeLace Pro for about a year now, using them with an iPhone, and the only issue out of those you described, I experienced, was the "re-pair once in every blue moon", which is an issue that seems to be pretty universal across bluetooth devices.

They support multiple devices, but no automatic switching, it's just a button short-cut to switch between them, works quite nicely for switching from my iPhone to my iPad and back.
Yes, it was a backup account that I moved some of my earliest emails from ~20 years ago into. Stupidly I did not set up 2FA or link it to my primary account - I never used it for anything other than passive data storage, so the security concerns just didn't cross my mind.

One day I decided to browse some of those emails for nostalgia reasons. The pattern of opening emails one after another must have triggered something, because I got locked out during browsing. It's been months and it still won't let me in - I know the password, I've resurrected old hardware, no luck. It's all quite frustrating.

Can one appeal? I haven't figured out how. The one last strategy I haven't tried yet is reaching out to a Google employee.
It's acceptable if it's something you're used to the practice. Many Apple users use their products for seemingly infinite amount of time before retiring the device, but even more users keep buying the newest and greatest when it comes out because A) they want to have the latest and/or B) what they currently had broke and the accepted solution is to buy new.
Through the conversation, you learn the idiosyncrasies of the other person. In a culture where haggling is normal, their “style” gives you insight into their personality and how they might act in other scenarios. And it identifies you as an insider or outsider to the culture. At the very least, you’ve learned their name and face.

I also hate haggling, and since I’m not from a culture where it’s a norm I can’t use it to read deeper into a person. (Or them into me.) But it’s not too hard to imagine how it helps to build relationships.
> It seems to me that its become standard practice on marketing type blogs for corporate websites to remove the date from their posts.

Worse still, I’ve encountered sites that automatically update their edit dates to be current as a way to optimize SEO. I’ve found articles with decades old information claiming to have been written mere hours or days prior.
I've been all over the US and lived in two of the cities you mentioned. Dated and been friends with many different hispanic people and I've never seen this happen.

That's true of my friends and romantic partners of all races by the way. I can't think of a single time I've seen someone be given a racial discount here.

There were a few times at restaurants and grocery stores where they had access to items I wouldn't have, but that almost always came from speaking the right language and knowing what to ask for. I'm sure those places would have been equally happy to accommodate me if I know what to say.

I do have stories of those friends and romantic partners being discriminated against a few times.
For a while, most of the hoodies I bought for workouts actually had a cutout in the kangaroo pocket for routing headphones inside of them. The newer ones don't though, you'd have to cut it yourself.

having a fair bit of experience in SketchUp myself, the author is building as most people do when they first pick up the tool. As in, thinking about building like its a literal sketch on a piece of paper, rather than in 3D. The finished building is just a flat facade more or less. They're also not using components or groups, which would speed it up considerably, improve editing/revision and provide for far more realism when creating various views in/around the scene. Properly geolocating for accurate sun shade and spending more time on materials would provide another boost in realism.

Not posting this to be condescending or critical of the finished product - it looks good enough and for a one off is more than good enough I would guess. But just like any repetitive process with computers, learning how to properly use your tool, patterns, finishing touches make a world of a difference.
It's quite funny to me that people are running these kind of almost scientific experiments on a fully human-generated and in principle knowable system. The reason are understandable of course but it does seem like a waste of human energy.

It is a bit atypical because I wanted a purely static comment system for my static site. Using nginx to just log certain matching URL types to a custom log file was way safer and easier to maintain than anything written in a dynamic language accepting arbitrary internet input. I eventually adapted this approach to receiving webmentions as well and in that context I provide textarea input for webmention response URLs.

My method is not better against spam bots but it does suffer from a different type of them. For example, if a spider follows a link it sees of an existing comment, "...com/something.jpg/@say/..." then my system will interpret that as a comment. So... spam bots don't see it, but normal spiders can cause spam.

Or you can work around the limitations of wireless headphones. At the end of the day both choices have advantages and consumers can freely chose one or the other (or both for different situations!) just so long as no manufacturer is stupid enough to remove headphone jacks from their mobile music devices we'll all be good.
Wired headphones also switch between devices almost instantaneously. Or at least, when you unplug from one device and plug into another, you're guaranteed to have it switched to the right device.

That being said, I use my Airpod Pros almost all the time, because I'm hooked on wireless and being able to stand up and walk around, etc.
I agree with this take. Even though I avoid the clusterfuck of the front end ecosystem like the plague, I have a coworker who is a big proponent of Svelte and from what I’ve seen, it’s really well optimized.

That being said, if I were a front end developer, I would look at the job openings and see most jobs ask for React experience and be more concerned with resume driven development.

I would like to highlight that there are currently other search engine options. We can chose to use duck duck go or even bing. Both of which I have never blatantly experienced things being hidden.
I have a pair which have a cord between them and hooks over the outside of the ears, because regular headphones don't retain in my ears. I don't think I could last even a day with airpods without losing one of them.
I found I was just getting sick of the faff and bulk with my wired ATH-M50x + FiiO A3 amp. I have tried most of the big bluetooth buds (Airpods 3, Buds Pro, XM4, Audio Technicas), I absolutely hated them.

I've ended up using the FiiO UTWS5 (over ear bluetooth hooks that connect via standard IEM connectors) + Moondrop Katos, the setup is sublime. Fantastic sound quality, very reliable and great battery life with no faf and can fit it in my pocket.

If you still want wired, the Apple dongle actually has a DAC/amp that is regarded surprisingly highly in the audiophile headphone community. Just remember to charge your phone.

I think most of the mainstream options for wireless stuff will make hi-fi enjoyers miserable, you just have to look at something a bit more interesting.

The only disadvantage is you don't get so much of the supporting features. Ambient mode isn't great, there's no ANC (I don't really care about these things), and it doesn't have the fancy pair-switching integrated stuff, so wouldn't be great if you switch between laptop and phone.

But for audio, we've reached a point where it is absolutely excellent.
Just do it.

Look up how to install a Linux VM under Hyper-V. Don't waste your time with WSL 2 because a WSL 2 system will always be configured in a wrong way idiosyncratic to Microsoft. You want to configure the VM so it can access the outside world but still have an internal network address that you can ssh into.

I've had the best luck installing Desktop Ubuntu and then disabling X Windows because you've already got Microsoft Windows. To move files in an out of the VM use WinSCP. Any scheme for sharing files between Linux and Windows will screw up in some subtle ways and have you scratching your head at least and crying at worst, so don't. Treat it the same way you would a development machine in the cloud.

Then install and run docker in the VM exactly the same way you would for a cloud development machine.
Cross-country or even cross-state comparisons are highly problematic for many reasons. Many narratives can and have been constructed, which are a far cry from a structured scientific study.

The solution to corporate censorship is not to take away corporate speech. It is to enable competition against corporations that are too powerful.

For example, Spotify doesn't have startup competitors because it's so difficult to get legal rights to streaming. The government could require that music owners of significant size publish prices for streaming rights and apply those prices equally to any streaming service.

Your post is spot on. I'm an immigrant (to the US) from one of these countries. It's easier to get domestic help because people are desperate for money and there is no social safety net. A lot of the domestic help typically has no/little education (maybe only elementary school), so they are trapped in that situation.

Grocery shopping is a huge effort compared to the US. Also, with smaller homes, kitchens, and smaller fridges, you have to go grocery shopping multiple times a week.

Cars and Gasoline are also heavily taxed. Even "rich" families will typically only have one basic car, so you need a driver to drop someone off at work, come home to take somebody to the various grocery stores, etc.

Over the last 10-15 years as job and educational opportunities have improved, more and and more of the people I know complain that it's harder to find "good" domestic help. Lots of people who would typically go into basic construction jobs or domestic help jobs are finding other opportunities. Basically, what is going on in the US right now.

> A significant portion of our economy is post-scarcity.

No, it's not.

The economy is the system of distribution of scarce resources. Anything that is actually post-scarcity isn't part of it.

> Software, movies, tv, books, video games are all non-scarce goods forced to fit into a scarce framework through IP law.

No, they aren't. They are goods based around something with a high initial fixed cost and a low marginal cost. IP law exists to incentivize people paying the fixed costs. That's not post-scarcity.

> The replicator would transform most physical goods into IP

It might change most novel physical goods to having more of their costs as fixed costs, but high initial fixed costs are already a significant thing for novel physical goods and already addressed by IP law.

> In the 22nd, an iPhone is >95% IP

The 22nd is as much speculative future (or fiction) as the 24th.
Show HN: MockRocket – 3D app mockups and animations in the browser
Hey HN,

I've spent a lot of time over the years building mockups and demo videos for my apps with tools like Photoshop and After Effects, always frustrated by how tedious it was.

For the past year and a half, I've been working on building a better way.

MockRocket makes it easy to show off your app, right from your web browser–no experience required. Choose a template, drag and drop a screenshot or video and display it on a realistic 3D device model. You can even animate it to create a video.

You can customize as much or as little as you want, and export in up to 4K resolution. All rendering is done in the browser, not on a server–using WebGL and WebAssembly–so your imported designs stay 100% private.

This is the first release! Please let me know if you have any feedback or questions!
Old links are definitely disappearing from search engines. I used to keep a track of results over a period of 5 years and I could only see that newer results are showing up while the ones from the past slowly fade away.
As a search engine developer I totally get why. HTML in the wild is not well behaved in the slightest. People use title and heading tags in all manner of weird ways. I've seen <title>-tags in the <body>-tag used as headings. I've seen documents where every line was a <h1>-tag.

You kinda need to make the most of what you're given.
The price of the AirPods Pro ($329 USD, though they go on sale for a significant discount quite a bit) might be a reason.

I purchased no-name Bluetooth wireless earphones for ~$55 USD before the AirPods Pro, and they were shockingly good for the price (super small, lightweight, long battery; similar observations that your wife reported about the Nothing headphones). I got the AirPods Pro after that, expecting a massive upgrade, but really the only significant difference was the noise cancellation (which is why I still use them primarily). The easier switching between Apple devices is nice too, but for my use case, I mostly use the AirPods on my phone anyways.

So for the price differential between generic headphones, I would expect a massive upgrade, but now it feels like a nice upgrade but pretty expensive for what it does (especially since I'll have to consider replacing them once the battery degrades).
This One example is not just due to the FDA, but the larger medical system. Yes they shouldn't cost that much and it is a cartel that overcharges, but also yes medical devices need regulation to prevent hucksters from exploiting people.

The FDA doesn't set prices. The cartels provide a product that works, which as far as the FDA is concerned, is all they care about. The FDA does not set prices.

As of 2017 there is already laws being changed to help lower prices and provide OTC hearing aids.

>Government shouldn't be involved in hearing aids, except in the consumer protection arena.

That is what they are involved with...

You seem to have demonized the FDA over one issue they don't really control and are now throwing the baby out with the bath water.
It clearly isn't. It looks like he confusing transfers between availability zones in one region with egress to the internet. A factor 10 mistake like that should be obvious, but he didn't fix it, even after I pointed it out in the comments on his blog (he responded that the price for me might be different due to region/currency settings).
>Wired is dead

For as long as we both live, manufacturers will make wired headphones, and people will buy them. Latency and quality might not be important to the casual user, but for some wired headphones and speakers will be, and will always be, essential.

> and why phylogenetic analysis shows the common ancestry in around September 2019.

September 16, 2019? It's easy: blast at BSL4 lab «Vector».

«On September 16th, 2019, an explosion occurred at the State Research Centre of Virology and Biotechnology building (Vector) in the city of Koltsovo, in the Novosiberisk region of Siberia, Russia (1). The affected building was a BSL 4 virology research centre, and one of only two known sites housing variola virus, the cause of smallpox. The facility has one of the largest collections of dangerous pathogens in the world. Whilst laboratory safety breaches are common and do not usually result in epidemics, explosions are rare. Unlike a needlestick injury or an accidental shipping of live anthrax, an explosion of this magnitude is likely to lead to a physical breach of the integrity of the laboratory, possibly affecting multiple parts of the structure and equipment within. An explosion is sudden, uncontrolled and unpredictable, and involves force which may result in pathogen release into the surrounding environment. An epidemic which arises in close proximity to the explosion could spread beyond the affected region or even globally, which makes this event a concern for global public health.»
