That's clearly not different you can also change your email from Google to Live but you also have to pay in sweat as you say. The difference is you can have some control on your "tribe" as you call it because it's a democratic human organization where Microsoft and Google are sort of oligarchic human organizations, some people have power over them, you're just unable to be part of those people for actual money/power reasons.

As I said I see no technical/organizational reason why techniques advocated for radical decentralization (like blockhain, dht, name-independant routing, etc..) could not be used to make the necessary sweat to move from a tribe to another easier (as there are political framework like the European Union which makes it easy to move your life from France to Germany or the reverse); move you signed DNS record from tribe 1 to tribe 2 so you move routing of your email, give some capability to tribe 1 to sync your data from tribe 2, and forgot about tribe 2. If tribe 2 is unreliable and still advertise that it should receive your email, you can do nothing, people in tribe 2 will lose contact with you. But if (real material) state A claim you are a criminal, and state B give you asylum that's great, but it won't make the danger of returning to state A disappear.

I think that the case where tribe would be adversarial is an edge case, the same way Live and Google do not block each other emails.

Anyway what I say will only verify if some people try it, make a global "user of internet association" with some kind of constitution for governing it democratically, amass some capital, create some infrastructure a la google-suite and see where it goes. If nobody adhere to it, I was wrong :) It seems that in this setting many current technology which needs some trust anchor to have some kind of performance become simpler (global ledger, secure name system, etc..) and very powerful.
Probably a courtesy from the website owner to not cause a runaway browser tab as it tries to render 60MB of image.

We have a broader idea brewing. So, the answer below will touch that and I’m sorry for not just focusing on just the tree planting part. This is a draft and please treat it as such. The final will make it to the site’s FAQ soon.

Here is the list of reasons we are doing a DAO as opposed to a
traditional donation model:

- Easier data sharing among organizations.

- Secure and auditable transactions enabling verifiable and trusted logs of transaction (monetary, carbon credits, monitoring events, donations).

- Decreased inefficiency for currency exchange rate and cross border transaction costs.

- Support for NFT and automatic calculation of carbon dividend.

- Easier reporting and analysis.

- Transparency in operations (which portion is going to what
organization and for what reason).

- Platform of choice for next generation of climate change advocates and supporters.

- Smart contracts enabling decentralized calculation of carbon offset for many daily activities (offset your emissions by planting and monitoring trees.

- Crypto mining is a great source of emissions, its way easier to plug our DAO into the existing networks to calculate and offset transaction emissions in a user friendly way.

- Blockchain allows for more secure anonymous donations which can be essential for some contributors.
We don't, no. Some older (and often very large) buildings here in Belgium do, but most apartments have individual gas heaters.

Some very new constructions rely on district heating, but that's only feasible if there's a source of waste heat nearby (some kind of factory, usually). I doubt we have more than 50 such constructions in the entire country.
Great work!

By “reinvent everything,” I believe you mean to say that you have to make your own linked-lists to have adjustable strings, and you have to create structs with function pointers to have objects…

The simplicity is either in the language and tooling around the language, or it is in the code you read and write in that language. C chose to be simple in the language itself and not in the code.

The single greatest praise that I will give to C is that the entirety of the language can be held in the mind of the programmer using it, with zero need for reference. This is impossible in most other languages.
Ideally I wouldn't learn a single thing about JavaScript, and go straight to WebAssembly. Possibly chose a language that already has a compiler for both so I don't even have to learn the standard.

And no framework either, I'd do my own things with as few dependencies as I can possibly manage. No point tying myself to some protean monstrosity that breaks code every 6 months and is abandoned 5 years later. (OK, not a web dev, so I don't know about that last one. It's just what I glean from the web's reputation.)
Why would contrast be bad for someone with bad eyesight?
The IRB is out of control
This subject is extremely fascinating to me. I've had a very direct experience with perception of time being very non-linear, via N,N-DMT. While there was still an internal sensation of a straight chronology to some extent (as in, I can remember roughly which events happened in which order), my perception of it was such that I actually feel like I saw the same exact moments multiple times, and that at the very least my perception was pulled back and forth along a short timeline that started at the comeup and ended at whatever "now" was during the trip.

The truly amazing thing is that the experience gave me a good solid two months of full relief (or at least perceived full relief) from normal everyday ADHD symptoms, took six months to completely fade, and also helped me greatly in processing my mother's death, which happened not quite a month after this experience. However, it was also immensely terrifying in the moment in terms of the subjective feeling, and so for me it takes a lot of mental preparation to approach it again.

Ever since that moment I've "known" in some capacity that our time perception is very fluid, and of course our brains fill in visual data constantly. Every time we move our eyes, our mind actually rewinds the clock to fill in the gap, hence why sometimes you look at a second hand and the first tick feels like it takes a little bit longer than usual.

I realize that a lot of this can be chalked up to the "drug" affecting me, but the direct perception of such looping (including the feeling of such) was sufficiently striking that it doesn't really matter, if anything it's also an potential argument that "unaltered" perception shouldn't be trusted at all either, since we can never truly actually verify what someone perceived or experienced.
Possibly, but they left out the possible outcomes of "simply refuse to talk salary, or to talk salary in email" and "just lie about the salary and/or the job".
I have a QC35 connected to linux laptop/android phone/toyota car. The problem is the headphones will randomly decide which one is going to win. Sometimes i turn on the headphones, they say they connect to the phone and the laptop, then I join a meeting and no audio. Usually have to turn the phone bluetooth off to get it working again. In the end i bought separate dedicated headphones to use for the laptop.

After all, the purpose of the company would be to offer Google services in Germany - so I imagine, it would either be a subsidiary or a de-facto shell company.

Good point though, that sort of answers my question already.
Interestingly, I have employed a similar sentiment so far, without knowing that it might be actually a good thing. I am trying to give at least one short and comprehensive answer that: I am not looking for new challenges, thanks though. Exceptions might apply to especially annoying recruiters who just don't care and ignore my wishes and send me useless messages regardless.
Yes. And a key component of learning to adapt is learning to make intelligent global-scale behavior changes when it's in our interest, such as banning CFCs and reducing CO2 output.

Perhaps "adapt" is the wrong word; you might see some of these actions as proactive.

> instead of investing in small inventors, they'd just freeze them out until they lose their rights (or use that threat as leverage to buy the patents for less than they're worth).

I'm trying to understand your point but it seems like you are saying that all people with sufficient capital would band together to prevent small inventors from getting funding for years?
A bit. from one point, i wouldn't mind passionately discussing mechanics of a feature, or the strategies of what to build in the next few quarters/years. but every time i enter a discussion about which way the code should be setup, i just can't enter a state of caring anymore. i'm starting to come to the opinion that when presented a path of A vs B, humans aren't well equipped to really understand that even though A seems okay now, it can be a terrible decision for what's to come in 2 years. Same goes for B. So it all just becomes moot. I've seen it happen time and time again
Indeed there isn't. It isn't a discussion either--you asked a question, which I answered, while you continued to argue from ignorance.

> MariaDB, Fast Growing, Popular Open Source Database Software Company

No matter how I turn and adjust the parameters, MariaDB seems to be the least popular of the big databases on the market today (https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=today%205-y&q=...) and looking long-term (2004-preset), it seems like it's popularity is going down, not up (https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?date=all&q=MariaDB).

I wonder what metrics they are looking at to figure out that it's "Fast Growing", under "Viral adoption" and "A leading relational database brand"? Probably they have some insight that I don't, or this is just a press release filled with the usual marketing lies.
The fact that covid managed to get to unvaccinated >1% population suggest that at least some of vax population are carriers, probably asymptomatic. It would be quite hard for these 1% to get infected otherwise.

All I sad that vaccines can't stop the spread and it still looks like that. I didn't say they don't reduce it or that they're not beneficial otherwise.

Personal anecdote time: I got covid from person who was fully vaccinated 2 months before and didn't have any symptoms. Btw. since this was second time for me, plus with vaccines in the mean time, it was like a very mild cold, one day of temperature and some coughing afterwards.

Hm, numbers I'm googling for Gibraltar don't really add up - population 2021: 35.120, fully vaccinated: 40.722. One explanation would be that there are non-rezidents who are working there and got vaxed, while not counted as population.
I was inspired by this Rest of World post https://restofworld.org/2022/wordle-viral-turkish-japanese-t... to make a Hindi-language "Wordle" https://kach.github.io/shabdle/ just for fun.

well, a lot of people don't use SAE sockets for serious stuff. Your IKEA chair might have some 9/16ths wrenches - but for cars and other mechanicals its mostly metric.

A few brake lines and some old exhaust bits might be SAE, but by and large vehicles are done with metric.

Personally I like that SAE has fewer sizes... Its frustrating as hell working on cars with a mixmatch of 6mm 7mm and 8mm bolts. oh this is a 15 but a few awkward 16s! Mostly though, cars are pretty standard. European cars seem to be basically - 7mm 8mm (hose clamps and other tiny stuff) 10mm (air filter housings and such where 8mm is to small) 12mm 13mm (misc bolts, intake manifolds, exhaust, almost everything) 15mm 17mm 19mm (these larger ones are basically suspension and other large components)
dear __boos, I absolutely agree. Seeing how Grammarly suggests fixing in your writing has improved my writing too. How about we see this tool as something to apply when the job needs done and the suggestions are usually acceptable? Regarding those exercises portion, I am out of ideas as of now.
>> Flat-out means at full RPM, which is not a thermal decision. It is a limit based on cylinder size and flame speed. Any higher and the fire is still burning when the exhaust valve opens.

Partially -with some engines, the limit is valve float, or cam shape (which is why electronically operated valves are becoming a thing), with some it is thermal.

With pro-level drag race cars, producing 7000+ Hp / 5+MW, some of the more key considerations are how much fuel can be pumped into the cylinders. But they turn over only something like 900 revolutions each race run and need to be torn down between each run.

The point is that ICE engine design is a massive balancing act between inertia of parts, internal friction, strength of parts, fuel, and thermal. Thermal may not be the main driver of every engine design, but if you claim thermal is irrelevant and not a limiting factor, you're just plain wrong. In many types of road races from F1 to Le Mans, merely picking up a small sheet of plastic or paper on the radiator intake will be a cause to pit almost immediately because the thermal management is designed to handle the requirements.
Hey! Thanks for your feedback. I would love to try and understand what you're saying but I'm struggling a little.

Can you explain what you mean by "There is a time and place for in-house recruiters and third party recruiters." what is that time and place?

I honestly tried to be really nuanced (but clearly failed a little, thanks for that data point).

I think it does speak to the fact that I have seen 20 years of the prevailing narrative that there is zero value to recruiters and this realization was, to me, pretty mind-blowing.

I appreciate that "never" is a word that lacks nuance, maybe that was a little too clickbait of me.

Sorry for that.

Thanks again for the feedback.
The problem I have is that almost every recruiter that emails me lists the positions they are trying to fill. Almost all of those positions are ones to which I am morally opposed. It's a waste of both of our time to respond positively and interview for positions that I won't accept under any realistic circumstance.

Comments like “it’s standard” do not answer the original question:

“I'm curious why Node core has decided to make this an official part of Node?”

The standard describes many functions and classes. What makes fetch more land-able than e.g. the event system, of which node has incompatible implementation? Or feature detection via navigator. Why it? What were the main point(s) of adding fetch specifically?
I can't get past the first 3 words!! Sorry.

"DATA ARE valuable".

Is 'data' like water or like sheep? :) Can whatever-it-is be counted (like sheep) or not (like water). Eg:

Water are valuable. (Wrong!!)

Sheep are valuable. (Perfectly acceptable, phew!)

For me, data is like water.

'Data is valuable'.

'A piece of data is valuable'.

'Lots of pieces are valuable'.

'Data are valuable' <- sounds all wrong!

This may be familiar by now but developers are very lucky.

I left computers to move to investments, make 500k+/year but I envy the stability and choices that developers have. If I lost my job tomorrow it is not clear I could find another similar job. You have lots of options.

It looks like the situation will remain this way during our lifetimes (you never know), but you should at least appreciate it.

Same. If anyone wants to buy mine off me and learn this lesson for themselves, drop me a message.

Thought it was going to be a utopian "intentional community", and build all the things I'd been dreaming of from watching YouTube vids. Turns out that the infrastructure you need to even get started with that is in the way. Wish I'd just gone suburban with a nice garage workshop instead. That way I wouldn't have to worry about paving a road or pumping water up to the ridge.

Perhaps it was that bad for some people. If so, that's unfortunate. But I ended up with Windows Me sometime in college, and it was usable enough that I used it to develop and ship the first few versions of the first commercial software product that I was hired to develop. So it wasn't that bad. Still, once I could afford a PC with Windows XP, I got one and never looked back.

There's no such thing as an unbiased perspective. That's what perspective means. It's a report from a certain point of view. If you tried to be an "unbiased perspective" you'd have to include all details of every part of everything, because the mere act of choosing what to include and what not to include is a result of a perspective, and a perspective is the result of telos. Action towards a purpose.

Have you ever been friends with someone who includes too many details in their story and they lose track of what they were saying? That's what happens when someone tries to be "unbiased". They include too much and it starts to lose purpose. You won't read a book written this way. Perspective and narrative structures are what engage our attention and help us understand the purpose of the story.

Tell HN: Want to see Google fail? Try to find how to create a torrent on iPhone
Today, a friend asked me how to transfer about 60 GB of images and videos from her iPhone to her Windows computer, because the phone is so full that it's not working properly.

The obvious answer is use a cable, but here cable seems to have a loose connection so it cuts out mid transfer. iTunes wants to make a backup which you can't cancel and then the computer stops working.

My first thought was create a torrent file, send it to Windows via any chat app or mail and open it on the PC.

Now before giving her instructions I wanted to try the solution, although I do use an Android, but generally apps are more or less the same on Android and on iOS.

Following my common sense I downloaded the most downloaded torrent manager and then spent a few minutes searching for an option to create a torrent file. Being unable to find the solution, I went on Google...

'How to create a torrent file on iPhone'

Googles gave me only how to download torrents results. But I didn't give up, I'm good with computer stuff!

'How to "create" a torrent file on iPhone'

More or less same results... Welp, let's try Bing don't laugh... No solution.

After about 5 hours of trying, she decided to go for a run and have a dinner.

Oh and she's going to ask a friend to borrow her a cable and an iMac just to be sure.

I also wanted to try to SSH into the iPhone but you need to jailbreak it.

Google Photos has a limit of 15 GB.
iCloud has 5 GB.
Mega.nz has a limit of 50 GB.

Using a torrent would work, but if you can't create a torrent file, then you can't use the torrents.

Why is it so hard to transfer a lot of files from a phone to the PC without using the cable? Did I miss something extremely obvious?

EDIT: Not sure why people think this is a troll flamebait. It's not. I was just surprised that I wasn't able to find a solution even after a few hours...

I shared my day, in hopes of finding a solution, seeing it get flagged is sad.
