Hey! This looks great! Do you folks have automated API testing?

We're in the process of moving from a REST API to a GraphQL one, and I really want to do things right this time with an automated test suite.
Abridged history of Elon's self-driving predictions:

2015: "We’re going to end up with complete autonomy, and I think we will have complete autonomy in approximately two years."

2016: "I really consider autonomous driving a solved problem, I think we are less than two years away from complete autonomy, safer than humans, but regulations should take at least another year."

2018: "I think probably by end of next year (2019) self-driving will encompass essentially all modes of driving and be at least 100% to 200% safer than a person."

2019: "We need to be at 99.9999..% We need to be extremely reliable. When do we think it is safe for FSD, probably towards the end of this year then its up to the regulators when they will decide to approve that."

2019: "I feel very confident predicting autonomous robotaxis for Tesla next year."

2020: "I am extremely confident of achieving full autonomy and releasing it to the Tesla customer base next year. But I think at least some jurisdictions are going to allow full self-driving next year."

2021: "Tesla Full Self-Driving will work at a safety level well above that of the average driver this year, of that I am confident. Can’t speak for regulators though."
You realise that you can set up your own web server and livestream as much as you like (and can afford) from that to as many people as you want? Youtube doesn't owe you free bandwidth.
Lots of suggestions here, my personal favorite for small apps is Dokku running on a Digital Ocean droplet. I've also heard good things about Caprover and DO apps but not tried them.
> Ada, unfortunately, looks cobol-like, so someone who knows nothing automatically assumes a ton of bureaucracy. Run away if you want work done.

Ada looks nothing like COBOL., except perhaps in the most superficial sense (a bit keyword heavy compared to most other languages). The syntactic structure is really not far from what people are familiar with, in sharp contrast to COBOL. Rosettacode is a good site if you want to find some interesting (small) comparisons between languages. This is from the GCD page:

The COBOL version:

IDENTIFICATION DIVISION.
PROGRAM-ID. GCD.

DATA DIVISION.
WORKING-STORAGE SECTION.
01 A PIC 9(10) VALUE ZEROES.
01 B PIC 9(10) VALUE ZEROES.
01 TEMP PIC 9(10) VALUE ZEROES.

PROCEDURE DIVISION.
Begin.
DISPLAY "Enter first number, max 10 digits."
ACCEPT A
DISPLAY "Enter second number, max 10 digits."
ACCEPT B
IF A < B
MOVE B TO TEMP
MOVE A TO B
MOVE TEMP TO B
END-IF

PERFORM UNTIL B = 0
MOVE A TO TEMP
MOVE B TO A
DIVIDE TEMP BY B GIVING TEMP REMAINDER B
END-PERFORM
DISPLAY "The gcd is " A
STOP RUN.

The Ada version:

function Gcd (A, B : Integer) return Integer is
M : Integer := A;
N : Integer := B;
T : Integer;
begin
while N /= 0 loop
T := M;
M := N;
N := T mod N;
end loop;
return M;
end Gcd;

The C version on that page demonstrates what I'd consider a bad practice, but I'll show it and how a clearer version might be written:

static int gcd(int a, int b)
{
while (b != 0) b = a % (a = b); // not clear at all, good way to avoid a temporary variable
return a;
}
static int gcd(int a, int b)
int t;
while (b != 0) {
t = b;
b = a % b;
a = b;
}
return a;
}

Compared to Ada, that second C one is 3 lines shorter, which corresponds to the lack of `begin` and reusing the parameter variables rather than defining two new local variables for the loop. Ada doesn't permit you to assign to "in" parameters, which is the default.

No. They consider that "coercion". So there really is no point in even asking, as the only correct answer is to decline. Anyone who accepts can be presumed to have been tricked into falsely thinking they would get something in exchange for granting permission.
Politicians are trying to get rid of these things but if you have to enter a boxing ring where everyone puts glass shares on the knuckles of their gloves, you’d be pretty stupid not to put some glass shards on the knuckles of your own even if it’s not the arena you’d have exist.
So Tesla is supposed to mimic bad driving of bad drivers? Whatever happened to the promised Age of Road Safety, brought about by smart AI whose ability to make decisions is so much better than the useless chunks of meat menacing our roads today?

>How many people are going to get rear ended because every Tesla stops at a stop sign now?

So bad drivers roll through stop signs, and this behaviour is somehow at equilibrium with terrible drivers who follow too closely and are thus perpetually on the verge of rear-ending someone? Best not upset this equilibrium, it clearly works so well!

>It's the same with following the speed limit on roads where everyone speeds.

Of course it is. Can't wait for speeding self-driving cars taking out cyclists or pedestrians. Whaddaya want from me, I put it in 'hurry mode' because I've got places to be!

>Nobody is going to like self driving cars if they're going 25 on a road where everyone goes 40, where the speed limit should clearly be adjusted. The accidents that occur from drivers not being able to stop for a slow car in time, drivers getting annoyed and attempting to overtake, or drivers causing road rage incidents will dwarf whatever crash rate you'd get by just letting the car go faster.

Speeders that endanger lives of everyone not currently inside a car, now embedded in an efficient algorithm. Whatever could go wrong? My North American barely liveable city is gonna be so much better for it!
Yes, it's possible for companies to act in secret to deliberately not comply with the law.

There have been highly public cases of that blowing up spectacularly for those companies; cases where it becomes public and nothing really happens; and - I'm sure - many many more where nobody outside the company ever found out.

Is there some aspect of this situation in particular where you're trying to ask something more specific than that?
I've tried render as well and so far it's working well.
This really grind my gears too. You want carefully curated content? I like that too from time to time and it is more or less ubiquitously available. You don't have to destroy every platform that might diverge here.

Youtube is long gone from non-commercial use and for me the platform is a lot less interesting, although there still is good stuff on it. But so many people want to go back to church. Every measure is a punch in the wherever curiosity is situated in the body...
These GDPR banners have made the internet a worse place for most users IMO, there needs to be an easy way to consent to all tracking and skip the banners across all sites. I'm fine with this being opt in, but it should be easy to do on a "normal" browser (like chrome or edge including mobile) without the need for an extension. Forcing everyone to deal with these things is bad.

Great perspective, thank you for that! We don't currently have customers, so it's kind of a unique scenario where we _could_ potentially sunset older stuff and start fresh with no impact, but I appreciate the advice. I think the hybrid approach may be best here.
Thanks! We've added a couple of cool features like converting user stories into tests. Let us know if you have any questions:)
Same with Github, you can disable issues or projects or whatever other features they have at a repo level.

I agree that this and feature flags are a great way to toggle things, but unfortunately for apps like Postman you still feel the load in the download and load times for the app. Usually those fancier features are also more code/data which results in straight increases in memory/disk regardless of whether you use something or not.

In IDEs like Jetbrains and VisualStudio, a lot of features are built like plugins which are a separate download and installation and allow you to disable them. I wonder if apps could take that approach to to keep more people happy.
Even if Singapore is the best of all the authoritarian governments out there, it is still kinda fucked up. Even with its nature put aside, Singapore still engages in all sorts of regressive, backwards policies, up to a point where it's difficult to claim that any high govt official from Singapore holds any sort of sense of nobility within them. If this person is the prime minister, he is actively choosing to ignore, detach himself from, or even to support and continue those policies.
> Telemetry has massive direct user benefit.

No. The benefit you're describing is not a direct benefit. It's an exemplary instance of indirect benefit even under the most generous evaluation criteria/process.
Suppose you’re my coworker.

I can’t really speak for you. I don’t know your opinions! You didn’t ask me to be your spokesperson. Cool? Makes sense?

But, I remember that one time you said you’re allergic to nuts.

Next year, somebody’s making cookies for the office. He asks what kind of cookies everybody likes. He’s thinking of making macadamia nut cookies. You’re out of the office that day.

“Oh, I’m not sure what kind of cookies hn_ta_234465 likes,” I say. “But I do remember that he’s allergic to nuts.”

Does that make sense? I’m not your spokesman and it would be weird/rude to put words in your mouth. But it makes 100% sense for me to refer to something you’ve already said.

Simple.
What surprises me is the simple fact that these self "driving" cars are allowed on the road without any federal oversight at all. Meanwhile you could not legally register a Mercedes Benz car that only has ONE wiper blade because it did not meet federal safety requirements.

Yet somehow replacing the human in the drivers seat, the most safety critical part of the whole damn car, with a gpu, camera, and junk code is no problem. Even after multiple stories of accidents and deaths caused by them.

And another point, touching LCD screens while operating a car is perfectly legal but touching a phone screen isn't. At what point did the system stop caring or was paid to stop caring? Have the tech companies subverted the government and our safety for profit? WTF is going one here?
Thanks for sharing. Is the code for httpyac anywhere? I can only find the repo for the docs. I'm trying to check it out, but I encountered some errors when trying it add it as a global with yarn because I'm running a node version greater v14. The extension also gave me a deprecation warning about Buffer() usage.

Oh, I'm with you on this one. So many scars, from so many different shapes of blades.

That's why I'm still using LO and not MSO, despite the fact it's now more stable.
Getting into home automation beyond Google/Apple/Smart things can be a boon, you really have to devote a chunk of time to it. Running useful services at home is one of the fastest ways to learn.
I get the impression that this is a system wherein honest mistakes and failure to adhere to strict rules are punished, while outright cheating is allowed simply because it's difficult or impossible to catch. Meanwhile, the strict rules exist in part in order to try to make cheating harder, but don't actually seem to make it harder to cheat, they just make it harder to complete the trail in an honest fashion.

As such, this seems like a cautionary tale for a wide variety of human-designed systems, especially centrally-administered systems such as in governments and corporations.

That said, I love the idea of a trail like this, and I love the idea of collecting stamps along the way.
You could just, not track. That's always the option and it's what the final intention of these rules are.

Just browsing a website shouldn't be grounds to start tracking users.

Why would a “Summit on Democracy” matter other then to show who the US are pals with and which ones (by omission) would rather be pals with other (opposing) powers?
Arguably, in a company where the primary purpose is legal there'd be teams of legal experts (lawyers, attorneys, etc) that would be the ones deciding features and wording, not the devs themselves (assuming you mean, "who" as in "what developers", since we are in HN)
In 2020, the lab leak theory was dangerous and unhelpful. The incumbent at the White House was easily swayed into acting rashly without thinking too hard, and the whole world was dependent on very limited supplies of PPE and biotech equipment that mostly came from China.

In 2022, the lab leak theory isn't so dangerous to talk about, and China is making waves about Taiwan.

It's all about the time and the place. Sometimes it's better to keep quiet for now. That's not a conspiracy, it's strategy.

I've been using Fastmail for years. Love it. Rarely a problem. Support always responds within 24 hrs if there is. Ended up having to move my calendars back to Google Workspace so they could sync with Acuity (SquareSpace) Scheduling. Really annoying that they can't provide hooks into other standard CalDAV services.
I'm just aghast that they are still trying to figure out if he broke any laws. As in, how in the heck would a retail trader even know if the experts can't figure it out? ...feels like they think his actions results were negative and they want a scapegoat by any means possible.

Ultimately, the sentiment is to protect the financial sector while punishing retail. Business as usual.

No, those people lost their own money, since every third word out of DFV (and everyone even remotely reasonable on that site) is that what they're providing is not financial advice.

That's not just boilerplate, it's also 1000% true. If you lose money because you listened to them, the only person you can blame is yourself.

IMO the biggest issue with the web is the lack of a consistent “contract” between content and consumer.

Compare a blog to a podcast. A podcast is long form content. You know clearly how a podcast is monetized, and accept the advertising or Patreon or whatever.

A blog, OTOH, might literally be malicious to your computer, privacy, and attention. You dont know if it’ll try to hijack your browser or what it might track about you. You don't know if you’ll have a pleasant reading experience or get twenty prompts to signup for a newsletter.

Intermittent reinforcement being the strongest kind, we begin to associate the web / blogs with malicious spam that slows down your computer, even if many aren't.
This is because you hired developers on payroll and it would be a dumb strategic move to fire everyone once the product is "finished." You have to keep building things in order to justify having people on payroll (otherwise you're paying them to do nothing every day).

If you take VC funding you're in for another world of pain, which is that your company may be perfectly profitable but if it isn't growing at a rate your investors want you'll get kicked out and replaced by someone who will take "product growth" seriously. In other words, Postman needs more paying customers so it needs to become more of a "one size fits all" tool.

One might think that the solution is to simply work on another product after Postman was declared "done," but it seems like nobody seriously attempts this anymore because the SaaS model is so much more profitable.
Fundamentally, any radar that can be configured to capture coherent data (ie: amplitude and phase rather than just amplitude) can be a SAR. SAR is basically post-hoc digital beamforming to sharpen the image. If you have amplitude and phase information (which you can get if your radar can be configured to output raw quadrature baseband) you can do SAR processing. There's no fancy hardware required, SAR is largely a software problem.

You do also need information about where the sensor was located at each pulse, but it doesn't have to be extremely precise - there are algorithms that do iterative processing to accomplish motion compensation.
Yes we do! You can check out this doc on how you can integrate API calls in your test case:

I don't know about Russia, but this is not really an accurate perception. US laws tend to protect US Citizens and residents. Even citizens of friendly countries like Australia don't have protection.

In some ways it's worse because Australia is five-eyes, so they can do a, I'll spy on your citizens you spy on mine kind of thing (which we know from Snowden was exactly what they were doing)[1][2].

Your point is decent, it is definitely hard to find another people with similar desire, but I do not going to rid of my computers btw.
Instead I am going to get an extra computer (a typewriter is considered as well) for my garage where energy shortages is a common and where I use to work at some technically-loaded hobby projects. That's why I afraid that the computer will interrupt my workflow via begging too much of my attention. So, I hope to exchange all multimedia options for instant power-up to end up with a typewriter with editing option and nothing more.
the increasing shift to blaming regulators is really notable when you put this on a timeline. Would be nice if people reacted with the historical knowledge about what Musk says rather than just the presumption that he is being true and honest when he blames them for Tesla/SpaceX's problems.

Orbital decay comes from something. At some distance from Earth, you run out of somethings (most critically: atmosphere) decaying an orbit.

So past a certain distance, orbits are effectively "forever" ones.

You just don't get the point, WinRT and COM are exactly the same thing.

COM with .NET metadata files + IInspectable in addition to IUnknown => WinRT

Since Windows Vista all major APIs are COM, you cannot avoid them unless you stuck in pre-historic Windows XP.

SDL on Android works, because Google has exposed the required APIs for game development to NDK, everything else requires a JNI call, or having Java code being called via Android IPC (binder).

Xamarin performance is quite bad versus Java/Kotlin, because they have to cross two layers to do anything meaningfull,

.NET => NDK => JNI and then for every Android event that gets triggered Java/Kotlin => JNI => .NET

Xamarin runs on ART (there is no JVM on Android) anyway, because the only kind of binaries that NDK allows for in proper Play Store applications are shared libraries loaded by Zygote process that owns ART.
Can you elaborate? Is that on files served from the App Platform CDN itself or files that are hosted on Digital Ocean Spaces? I'm trying out App Platform for a few projects at the moment
It might be the Pi wearing out the SD card. The Raspberry Pi Compute Module 4 [1] actually has a PCIe Gen 2 x1 socket.

Jeff Geerling (who's active on HN) has actually gotten SATA working [2] through the Compute Module 4 and the Compute Module 4 IO Board [3].

If you go his route you could potentially set up a Pi with more durable storage. Although, if you watch Jeff's video its a PITA getting SATA working as he had to recompile the kernel with SATA support. Also its pretty hard to get the Compute Module 4 and the IO board at the moment.

LO is fantastic free software. The fact we even have an office suite that isn't controlled by MS or Google or another big player is great for users. My only gripes with LO are that the UI feels dated sometimes (I think they're working on this, if I recall), but that's a shallow take from me. I don't often use anything aside from small spreadsheets and text documents for college essays, so I've never noticed a limitation.

The belief among GME enthusiasts is that the shorting wasn't through puts (options), but rather through straight up short selling.

And that yes, this has been going on a long time and is in fact costing the hedge funds a lot of money. And buying to cover is way too expensive at current market prices, so the hedge funds are bleeding money in hopes that something will change the situation.

Oh, and the belief is also that there are more short sales that need to cover than there are shares of the stock. Hence the squeeze potential.
"That's the career advice I would give, build good bridges and make friends with people."

I agree. Personally I'd include recruiters in that group of people as well.

I don't work with keyword monkeys...the ones that send you job opportunities for jr. sysadmin roles 20 years into your career, because a 10-year-old resume they dug up from somewhere mentioned bash shell scripting in there somewhere.

I work with a handful of recruiters I've developed a good relationship with and who know what I'm looking for.
