Sure. Plenty in the replies here; just scroll a bit.

Folks claiming the idea of "cultural appropriation" is absurd, because they heard that "eating sushi" or "getting a deep tan if you're white" are "cultural appropriation" and so therefore the whole idea is dumb.

It's about as valid as claiming that Linux users are maniacs because hey, I heard there was this one creepy dude at a conference once and he used Linux.
This would be ideal, but from what I understand this addon is built on the framework of mozilla's containers, which can not work in private browsing, which is a shame, I'm not sure why mozilla has set it up this way, although they likely have a good reason.
I highly recommend the podcast Re:Joyce by Frank Delaney if you're at all interested in Ulysses.
He reads Ulysses and discusses it - sometimes an episode is dedicated to just one sentence, sometimes a paragraph.
Tragic that he died before completing it and that his website has gone untended.

Lockdowns in Europe however were pretty brutal, lasting for months at times. I regularly had to wait up to half an hour in line for groceries here in UK, because home deliveries were obliterated by demand.
It really needs some love in the UX department. There are so many icons and toolbars it is hard to understand where to find things or why they are placed where they are.
I think the answer is still related to censorship. Streamers with lots of history also got throttled.

So, ask yourself, why would YouTube need to throttle in the first place? Who is giving all these protest-streamers their first 300 viewers, making them rise in the live-streaming rankings and exposing millions to anti-mandate protests?

I think YouTube is under attack. I think they learned from live-streams during George Floyd protests, which, incidentally, I also was exposed to, even though not caring too much about that. I think throttling is an attempt to avoid the artificial boosting of divisive and polarizing content.

I really do not want to turn this into a conspiracy theory, though Mark Zuckerberg did offer for Facebook to make some changes, with the rest blacked out under "secret weapon" technology. After experiments done on Facebook on emotional contagion, surely, they must have ways to, instead of rile up an entire populace, calm them down. We are at an age where a single out-of-context video of alleged police brutality can shut down the economy.
For starting new projects it does 'just work'. Super simple to set up and maintain.

Yes, it might not work as well when you start to get more traffic, but for getting setup I have no complaints (aside from this downtime!).
The current spike in cases could be seen as a control scenario for what would have happened without lockdowns (remember "flatten the curve"?). For the Alpha variant, the case-fatality rate for the original variant was about 1%. In the US, the latest numbers are 424k/day. So we can suppose that if numbers were as high then, we'd have seen about 4.2k deaths/day, compared to the actual spring 2020 peak of ~2500. And that doesn't consider the probable knock-on effects on our medical system, since the hospitalization rate would have likely been much higher.
How about they apply their own theory to the framing of ‘information warfare’ that they simply assume as a factual part of what is happening but make no attempt to investigate?

Obviously there is literal information warfare in the sense of state funded propaganda and disinformation campaigns.

But that doesn’t seem to explain most of what I observe, which seems a lot more to do with vastly increased access to contradictory information as a result of the internet, coupled with a lack of institutional transparency. That doesn’t look like ‘war’ to me, but rather just that our institutions haven’t adapted to the presence of the internet yet.

WashPo reports a huge spike of federal complaints from Tesla owners starting in Oct 2021, well into the Vision-only Tesla technology

These are some pretty respectable sources. Federal complaints are public.

> “We primarily drove the car on two-lane highways, which is where the issues would show themselves consistently,” he said in an email. “Although my 2017 Model X has phantom braked before, it is very rare, the vision-based system released May 2021 is night and day. We were seeing this behavior every day.”

So we have Electrek, Washington Post, and the official NHTSA Federal registry in agreement over these phantom braking events spiking in October / November timeframe of 2021. I don't think this is an issue you can brush off with anecdotal evidence or anti-website kind of logic.

At least these guys are consistent. Herby in 2020: [0]

My results show that a large share of the excess mortality in Sweden in April 2020 may be partially explained by a vulnerable, elderly population due to very mild flu seasons in 18/19 and 19/20 as well as very few deaths during the 2019 summer compared to earlier years and compared to other Nordic countries.

My results illustrate – and I cannot stress this enough – that plain coincidences may be important when understanding the COVID-19-death toll in a country compared to national lockdown policies.

Personally, it used to be the biggest issues in tackling scripting tasks in Lisp in my experience was slow startup (mind you, we're talking about running from 4200 rpm spinning rust). There are people successfully using it for such kind of work, and generally it used to be common in environments with more Lisp support.

These days my biggest issue is that I kind of lost the need for anything more than Bash for one-off tools, and I do it rarely enough that the incremental benefit faces big hurdle of dealing with development-antagonistic environment (mac)

> If their experiment are zo good, why are the recommendations so bad that I had to turn off the feature that adds items to My List?

They've gotten very good at grabbing attention with cover art, but then you click on it and quickly realise its crap.

In other words, they've put appealing covers on all the boxes, so now you pick ones that are crap only to abandon them 20 minutes later.

I wonder if abandonment rate is a metric too.
- SICP to learn about abstraction(s), divide-and-conque, programming in the small.

- Knuth TAO - reference for algorithms and data structures, as well as reasoning about runtime, and to learn to what length true perfectionists can go (and to also learn that if you live like that you may get famous but you will never live long enough to deliver chapter 12 of the book you promised your publisher as a Ph.D. candidate).

If you only ever read two books and you want to know what is computer science, these two represent the very best in writing that the discipline has produced. But there's plenty more fabulous work, of course:

- Cormen et al. and Skiena about algorithms and data structures - to learn and to become familiar with the standard inventory

- K&R - C programming
- Stevens - to learn about UNIX and systems programming.

- ...and any random Python text book

But after that standard canon one could branch out into the various sub-fields of CS, from compilers (dragon book, Wirth), formal languages & automata (Aho, Hopcroft & Ullman; Salomaa), over machine learning (Murphy; Hastie/Tabshirani/Friedman), databases and data mgt. (Lemahieu/vanden Broucke/Baesens), software engineering (Sommerville), ... each of which have their standard texts.
My blog has been on Wordpress since about 2007.

It works, and I appreciate that it’s free but I’ve always hated working with it.

If someone made a node based equivalent (so I can at least use a modern templating language) that supported comments I would be all over it.

The commenting system is the only real reason I stay. There’s nothing else I can find that doesn’t necessitate stitching multiple services together just to get commenting that I can find.

And as for being able to spin up a local dev version for casual edits — horrid DX! I wonder whether a big reason social media has stolen our online interactions over the years is because there are few (no?) blogging platforms that support comments?!
They're not paying for wordle, the game - obviously that's been cloned a million times over (and it's a clone itself).

They're paying for the viral social network around Wordle.

My family has a group chat where we brag about our Wordle results and discuss our strategies every single day. It's a nice way to connect with my adult siblings. I can only imagine how many other groups like ours exist.

Wouldn't the NYT like to capture that kind of energy within their Games offering, within all their offerings?

It will take finesse for the NYT to land that energy as a profit-making service that drives growth, but that's a challenge they've got to take on, and if anyone in the news industry can do it, it's them.

Great investment at a fire-sale price. Viral concepts like this are 1 in a million.
Because it keeps falling down to earth due to the (very thin) atmosphere at that altitude slowing it down. To counteract that periodically it's boosted by a visiting Russian spacecraft, however that won't last forever. American spacecraft don't dock in the right location to allow the boost.

On top of that, old things require constant and increasing costs in maintenance. At some point it becomes more economical to build a new one than keep an old one running.

And in any case the value of keeping it running has to outstrip the cost of keeping it running, with the cost increasing, and the value not (It claims it's international, but China isn't involved, they have their own space station. With blackjack and hookers), and Russia can't afford it.

By 2031 SpaceX will hopefully have an orbiting Starship, that craft alone has an internal volume around the same as the entire Space Station's pressurised volume. If Starship is successful, a new station based on launching and docking skills built through the starship program, will be far better value for money.
With the robot 9000 project I got the impression people underestimate the number of permutations and how easy it generally is to generate them on the fly.

You don't just got "only 12 tones" but also tone length, pauses, melody length, etc.
I wonder if there is a way to ditch the ISS without contributing to oceanic pollution. I get that this is likely a low-cost solution (disassembling it and transporting it wouldn't be cheap) but it would be nice to not contribute to the trash already floating around.
Holy shit. I have been on Linux for 17 years and while I've used Windows for work, I'd forgotten that the file explorer launcher is named My Computer since the first thing I do is remove all desktop icons. That brought back so many weird memories.
Most large companies have ethics hotlines you are expected to call when there is something questionable ethically or legally going on that might be difficult to bring up to a superior.

Personally I'd refuse to add a dark pattern cookie dialog, but I'm in the privileged position of being able to switch jobs.

But regardless, I'd probably send the ethics hotline an email saying that regulations are violated. Perhaps I'd send an email to the relevant regulator too, just in case.
>How are they screwing users? By showing them relevant ads?

If the true purpose of ads is just an innocent venture in creating beneficial user experiences with helpful suggestions, then we can improve that system by orders of magnitude by getting rid of distortions associated with paid placement.

Then we can reap all of the benefits without having to worry about the experience being compromised by the distorting effects of self-interest, associated with privileged placement in exchange for payment.
Launching isn't the only thing you need to do to build a replacement, there's building it twice: once on Earth and again in space. The ISS was assembled largely by hand by astronauts working out of the Space Shuttle which has an airlock that none of the current capsules have so they'll have to work out of a seed station launched in a single go or we'll have to wait for a crew Starship. That's a long ways off even if you don't account for Musk's habit of promising things are coming soon.
Is there going to be an announcement on the current status of Ferrocene soon?
It's been almost a year since the last blog post.

In the meeting with the lang team last February, I think the consensus was
that the next step would be to create a proposed charter for a project group.
Did that happen?
Right; I’m saying it’s value as advice tapers off as your career progresses
Oh no, the nice thing about it is you can basically configure it to do whatever you want. You can choose linters or fixers, lint/fix on save or on a configured "I've left insert mode" lag, etc. etc. It's actually really amazing [0].

One of the things I've really enjoyed about the Free Software ecosystem is choice, like mostly before Rails the attitude was "we don't presume to know the best anything, here are some options." I'm not saying there aren't tradeoffs (complexity, bitrot, 7 half-baked options vs. 1 incredible one), only that I kind of low-key resent the "opinionated" software that's out there. I guess I don't really see it as opinionated (like I think Rails' convention over configuration was actually a pretty good idea and exemplifies the "execute" phase of the explore/execute cycle of tooling), I see it as "flashy and targets the 80% use-case to get mindshare".

To be clear, I don't think rust-analyzer is that opinionated or flashy or lazy. I think it's awesome. But Rust's linting story is essentially "why would you use anything besides rust-analyzer, language servers are awesome and have no downsides." Which like, yeah they do.

Taiwan is an interesting case!

It's known that the ruling power in Taiwan is descended from the Nationalist government, it's perhaps less well-known that Sun Yat-Sen was a serious political thinker who designed that government, effectively singlehandedly.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_Principles_of_the_People

There's a visible mix of Western (by way of America and Britain) and Chinese thought in how the Yuans are structured.

Taiwan also inherited a large and functional civil service from the Japanese occupation, this is less immediately obvious in the structure of Taiwanese government, but you can find small traces everywhere if you know what to look for.
My understanding so far is that the TCF allows providers to accept 'legitimate interest' (instead of direct user consent) as a valid legal basis to store or process user data. This is commonly used for user tracking and advertisement / profiling, meaning you'll get tracked even if you clicked the 'Reject All' button.

> anti-vax livestream

Is it possible to get more nuanced clarity on this? The word "anti-vax" used to mean one thing, but today can refer to somebody who is against mandates.
I did a double take when I read your comment, but the more I think about it: You are right. Assuming this is not a joke, it is probably a good idea! There must be lots of legacy software from 60s/70s/80s that runs on mainframes for gov't/military/banks/insurance. It won't be replaced, but it would great to add tests when making changes to code.

Edit: Great HN username!
For Clojure there are libraries to refresh the program: these stop the app, reload and evaluate all the source code files, and restart the app to ensure you are working with a consistent state that reflects the source code.

Between such reloads you might end up in inconsistent states,
but you benefit from fast iteration:

My workflow is to update functions in the source code, send to to the repl, quickly test them in the repl, and once done, I save, commit and push the code.
CI then runs the test suite from the source files.
this is a nice start. congrats
i imagine v2 will have real-time connections to services that are mapped.
I'm with the others who have been running pi's for years with no issue. I did however go back into the office awhile back and stumbled across a pi display setup that had gone into read only at some point - most likely an sd card failure.

I would think if you want to take it up a step, you could look at something like an Intel NUC.
> That would be whole-progam analysis which isn't done.

That doesn’t matter.

> This breaks down with mutation, especially atomics, which are allowed as struct fields.

Not true at all. First, the compiler could refrain from doing this sort of code generation on fields with atomics (or any kind of mutable cell). Second, the object could be misaligned in some local contexts sometimes but references passed to functions could be always properly aligned. So a RefCell or atomic could still be copied or moved out and mutated, then moved back in, when the object is known not to have any references.

In general, this is close to reasonable code generation — a local struct could have some of its parts in registers. Its parts might be in noncontiguous stack locations. A language spec needs to specify that a field can be referenced or accessed via its pointer. It might also distinguish this from an alignment guarantee.
I followed up on this and had some conversation with one of the Skywalking PMC members.

They escalated the situation to the company legal of Byte Dance (the parent company of Volcengine Inc.). Then Volcengine has added an Apache license file for Skywalking. Skywalking is open-source software, it has no commercial license. So nobody knew how to evaluate the impact of this violation. And some people thought it was well resolved.

I felt very frustrated about this. It means there is totally *zero* risk to violating an open-source software.

If you have kids you've probably experienced some sort of forced quarantine based on incidental exposure. I would call that a targeted lockdown of sorts. It's interesting that it completely screws over the generations ostensibly most responsible for the future of the country. But we are all replaceable I suppose.
So all the people who refuse to join Facebook and are angry at Zuckerberg have no right to be angry? I can't just be angry that someone is a powerful liar who ignores the rule of law and puts dangerous cars on the road with me and my loved ones?

It makes people in a democracy angry when someone who is unelected (and was born with a silver spoon in their mouth) becomes more powerful than the democracy. I wish I didn't have to care about Musk, but the various regulators who are supposed to stop him from pump-and-dump scams on Twitter and from releasing unsafe, shoddily-built cars are very slow to do anything to him.

> it's deeply unhealthy

Please spare the armchair analysis. It weakens your argument and is off-topic for HN. If you can't make your point without calling me mentally ill, you don't have a good point.
Just chiming in that until it’s fully open-sourced (or at the very least source-available with a license allowing me to build, modify, and run it myself), this is entirely uninteresting as an alternative.

We are many that had trust broken one too many times.

IMO encryption/privacy means nothing if I can’t ensure it’s what it says myself. Ability to self-build is the only way to make that happen.
We do have previous statements that as they get better they are moving to harder situations. Start with empty roads, and once you can do them well start finding harder and harder situations. When you start you avoid construction zones, once you are doing well you start looking for them.
My point is that I want everyone to be provided a clear choice - that's what the GDPR attempts to do. The GDPR doesn't actually outlaw targeted ads, it just mandates that the user is given a clear breakdown of the data being collected and how it will be used and then they can choose whether they're willing to opt-in.

By your reasoning, malware should also be legal and it's up to people to learn the ramifications of it and how to protect themselves. We should not force others to miss out on the "benefits" of malware wouldn't we?
