> Two living rooms (well, “living” and “family”) and two (“formal” and, well, not) dining rooms are pretty common in 1960s homes at the size being discussed.

When house buying in 2020/2021 I looked at over 100 homes.

Very few, if any, of the 1960s houses wasted space on two dining rooms, and a fair number had basements converted to family rooms but it obviously wasn't an original part of the floor plan.

The 1960s split level design is obscenely efficient in space usage. There are plenty of variations on it, but the well done ones, vaulted ceilings, visible interior wood trusses, are still nice to live in today. The only modern amenities they are missing are a walk in closet and a full master bath.

Clocking in at ~2000sqft they can do more than a modern 3000+ sqft home does.

> Tall, narrow houses have been a feature of urban single-family homes for a while, I don't think they are a new trend.

Agreed, but the new breed is much narrower than before. I've been in Chicago row houses, and sure they are narrow, but the new ones they are building around Seattle are insane. It is basically one room then a flight of stairs. 3 bedrooms, one in basement, one on 2nd floor, 3rd on top floor. It borders on unlivable for a family, not to mention anyone over the age of 35.

Honestly it'd be much better if they just made regular condos, instead of 4 across narrow homes of 4 stories, do 4 flats.
I once worked as a consultant for $BigEnterprise. They had a big sales department, and some their staff had these laptops they brought with them to their customers. To actually use them they had to enter a Disk encryption password, Windows login password, VPN password. All in all there were 3 or 4 passwords. They all had to be different. They all had to cycle every 60 or 90 days. They all very strict "security settings".

Every single one of those laptops I saw had a little post-it note on it with all the passwords.

The password cycles especially are just hard to deal with.

Great idea if it worked at all decently - any excess power could go directly toward removing atmospheric carbon. Or some other environmental process that is beneficial. Water purification? Climate modeling datacenters?

The easiest way is to open your PDF document in Preview, turn on View > Thumbnails (if it isn't on already) and drag and drop your image document into the thumbnail pane.

You can combine entire PDF documents this way, either dragging them from a Finder window or dragging the title bar icon from an open document.

You can also drag and drop thumbnails between open PDF documents in Preview, and you can create a new document from the clipboard if needed using File > New from Clipboard. (Note if you want to drag other pages into it you will need to save it as a PDF first.)
~20,000 bookmarks. Typically have hundreds of tabs open across multiple browser windows.
> Pocket only appears on the new tab screen. That's not a pop-up.

I've seen nag "notification"-type pop-ups advertising Pocket and other things, that I have to dismiss.

> I haven't seen the pop in new tab behavior you're talking about. That's so far out of left field I have to wonder if you have some sort of extension installed that's causing your problems.

It's every single time it updates even if there's nothing any normal user needs to know about in it. Just today I remoted in to a work machine with FF on it, and already open, and sure enough, there one of these was, staring right at me. Somehow I get by OK in Safari and every browser before FF started doing this, without having changelogs pushed at me as an excuse to raise my "brand awareness", which I assume is why they do this.

> And all that aside, you've still provided no evidence that Mozilla plans to make this Disney ad a pop-up. It's just a fantasy you've concocted.

You don't expect them to do what they did with the Colorways announcement? Maybe they won't, but I'd be surprised. I don't know why they'd do this and not push it out over their favorite (and, if counted by audience size and effectiveness, practically only) advertising channel, which is to push it at people using their browser.

[EDIT] Oh man, it just occurred to me that they probably did the obnoxious Colorways announcement in the first place to measure its "engagement" precisely in order to sell this kind of stuff. Otherwise there was no reason to make such a big splash and interrupt people's workflows over putting some UI theming back in a browser that already had it, years ago. I'd wondered why they made such a big deal out of that and pushed it out in such a strange way, but that makes all the pieces fit together.

Modern America in a nutshell.

The number of "parlors" I've seen full of boxes is unreal.
so the lesson here is, take out a shitload of debt for a relatively worthless degree and get the American taxpayer to bail you out

Awesome
I worked very hard to pay off my loans, I don’t think my tax dollars should go to bailing people out of debt they agreed to repay.
I heard some great advice a long time ago. Always let them reject you. Never do it for them.
Thanks, I'll reach out soon.
For reference, this amount is less than 0.03% of the total ~$1.6 trillion in student debt.
It distracts from the small pee-pee.
Although, I always wondered if that was a snide way of asking if the machine was a fake, that Babbage didn't pick up on.
> you pay $250,000 to become a chef/cook - that is insane.

Seems like those sorts of situations are well into the territory of "if you owe the bank $1,000,000,000 then the bank has a problem"
I just switched back to XFCE on my desktop, because panel launchers cannot be properly configured in a simple way. Too bad usability made all the good looks useless. And I feel a renewed assuredness, that XFCE is the most productive DE for me. I had it configured in 10 minutes and it does everything I want in the way I want. Also XFCE these days can also look nicely.

Still, usability (and that includes being able to configure things easily) is king and I cannot stand it, if I cannot configure annoyances away.

>Just get a cheap/free 3d asset pack from itch.io and go nuts. It helps to know some concepts about 3d like UVs, normal/AO/specular etc maps, triplanar mapping, vertex colouring etc. but other than learning a bunch of new words it's not that difficult. But making 3d assets yourself is super time consuming.

Oh for sure. I've been 3d modeling for years. I'm big into cad and 3d printing, I used to know blender decently until they moved everything on me in a recently big release. Really should have taught myself shortcuts lol.

>Though it may be fun, setting up a whole streaming platform and engaging an audience is a whole shitload of extra work on top of the actual gamedev, so if you have limited time best to really truly treat it as a hobby and squeeze in an hour or two on certain evenings or something.

While I was reading "How to read" by Mortimer Adler I discovered this list called "Great Books of the Western World":

It sounds like something you would like to try.
The idea is there would be a paid tier of tutorials, art assets, game templates, and other goodies. Eventually we’d like to become a publisher of sorts, spotting the promising games that are being developed by the community.
I wonder if these numbers are the amount sprayed on a field/orchard (I assume?) or somehow measures how much was absorbed by the trees/plants which would be less. What I’m getting at, is where does the water not taken in by the plants go? Evaporates? Sinks to the aquifer? What side effect would there be if all almond orchards were no longer watered (other than to the orchard)?
I build bespoke UI elements for iOS apps all the time and building them in such a way that they look and function correctly not only across light/dark and accessibility modes but also future OS versions is not that difficult, and with how they’re built I don’t see them breaking even if iOS took on a radically different appearance. They might not match perfectly but usability will not be impacted.

If this is not reasonably possible with GTK, then it seems pretty clearly like a weakness of how GTK handles themes. Personally, I believe that CSS is ill-suited for the task and is responsible for many of the issues depicted in that blog post.
You need both, because long-distance transmission is subject to interruption.

Then, transmitted power is cheaper, but storage serves when transmission drops. The effect is amplified when transmission is from or through another country.
I can't think of any time, aside from maybe bootcamp, that I was ever called "shipmate" by anyone other than a green khaki, as you say.
Don't get me wrong, I'm glad to have any measure of control at all. It's just that I'm frustrated that we had infinitely more capable theming system already in place, and it was broken.
Thanks for checking it out and for the feedback! I like the idea of pre-canned scenarios and an easy CTA to get started with one or more of them.
I thought the whole meta idea was like rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic.
Touché, I remember hearing about such a policy for the first time recently. That certainly could change the value proposition quite a bit!
IIRC gzip can't handle this, but bzip2 can; a guy I know wrote an offline Wikipedia app for the original iPhone and had to crunch things down a lot, and he used bzip2 because you can skip ahead to a chunk without having to process the previous or subsequent chunks.

Then he just had to write some code to index article names based on which chunk(s) they were in, and boom, random-access compressed archive.

I started to list out the amount of MFA and frequency I do regularly and it exhausted me just writing it out. Suffice it to say I'm forced through all sorts of MFA with various passwords, PINs, Yubi keys, phone authenticators, and even an RSA token daily combined with other hidden information like varied usernames or paths to things. I probably do hundreds of auth steps in a day.

In addition we have all sorts of paranoid levels of security with network filters and local security software you have to frequently disable to accomplish tasks, using MFA of course, opening temporary windows that have to be opened later. I'm at a point now where being insecure isn't even insecure because if my info is compromised an attacker wouldn't even know where to find or how to do anything. If they did they'd probably give up. I only deal with it because I get paid well to deal with it.
All the DEA knows is how to double-down on being wrong. Even when psychiatrists opposed scheduling MDMA as schedule 1 the same thing happened. A judge had told the DEA to consider schedule 2 or 3 but the DEA decided to give the finger to the judge, the psychiatrists, and the american public at large.

The DEA needs to be disbanded and the CSA repealed. Nothing less, its not a system that is beneficial in any way. It causes more harm to the american public than any drug could ever cause.
I actually really like Japans system they had to inadvertently invent - the north part of the country and south operate on different power standards ( I believe the phase? ). This led to them building MASSIVE insanely high voltage DC to DC connections between the two grids so one side could still supply the other with power. But the other plus is that ( I believe ) one side can also not take the other out or draw too much power. China is investing heavily in super high voltage long distance power transfer and I suspect the US could do the same and use it to connect different areas of the country. Also much lower transmission losses.
0/10 literally unplayable.
They agreed because they had no choice. College is basically forced on every high schooler to the point that your guidance counselors ask you which one you choose and won’t take “none” as an answer. Ask me how I know. HR departments will also pass on your application unless it has a university listed.

With the rising costs of tuition year after year, it’s becoming unreasonable. And when they’re not dischargable during bankruptcy, it’s giving a middle finger to the poor. Saying, “F you, I got mine” doesn’t solve anything. Something needs to be done about it.
Just the kind of people who would embrace absurd cultspeak like "Metamate". They deserve each other.
> Even using U2F for SSH keeps the same restrictions

Er, what? The SSH keys are being generated the same way keys for web sites are under FIDO, which is to say they're random - your physical device has no idea how many keys you have, it couldn't mandate that there's only one key if it tried. It only knows how to tell if these are keys it made (otherwise presumably a different FIDO authenticator made them) and if so use them to sign you in once somebody touches the contact.
Yeah, I think most would say Turing had little influence on computers per se, rather than computer science. ENIAC was built in a clear line of succession with other mechanical calculating devices of varying complexity, but if they got how fundamental a threshold they passed I'm not sure they knew it.
That approach could definitely work if all you need for authorization is context about the user. Sometimes that context does get large, and it's hard to put it all in an HTTP header. This is a common problem for SaaS products that bake a bunch of scopes into their JWT and put it into the HTTP Authorization header. We've helped some of our customers unroll that approach and create an explicit authorization service that the app calls.

Also, once you start incorporating resource-specific information in your authorization decisions, this approach starts to break down. The gateway could be made to understand resource-specific information, but then you're essentially moving the problem from the application to the gateway. And typically you want your API gateway to make forward/block decisions quickly.

I want to afford anyone the benefit of an F/OSS license so they don’t have to waste their life energy recreating a wheel that I’ve already created. If it helps you and saves you time, have at it! In other cases, I contribute back patches so that companies can ship better software to their users (sometimes so I benefit; other times just so someone else doesn’t have to fix the same bug I just fixed).

This license case isn’t about “you can personally monetize it and nobody else” but rather “you and anyone else who wants to can try to monetize it”.

1960s split levels, knock down a single wall and you have an open floor plan. It is an incredibly common remodel.

They often have vaulted ceilings and front bay windows.

While I do <3 a well done modern floor plan, sadly most new houses have garbage floor plans. Ironically, and IMHO, the smaller houses tend to make better use of space out of pure necessity. Take a 1200sqft 2 bedroom house, tell builders they have another 1000sqft, and they'll shove in a 2nd dining room, 3 closets, another bathroom, but no more useful space.

Related, 2 bedroom 3 bath houses make me want to scream.
To this day I remember the "crack" noise of flipping open the spiral-bound Applesoft BASIC manual (https://archive.org/details/apple-ii-basic-programming) and even the smell (slightly musty, slightly plasticky, slightly waxy- not like any book I've held before or since).

I liked it so much, I bought an Apple IIe and a copy of the manual on Ebay. It helped this old programmer remember learning to program.

I pay every possible bill on a 2% cash back credit card that is basically dedicated to that purpose. That way my bills can come out whenever and it is my job to pay off that card every month to avoid interest payments and in exchange for that convenience I get rewarded with 2% of my mandatory spending to be put back into my pocket, and it gives me flexibility should I need to dole out on an unexpected expense with cash.
The digest is 64 characters long, so on average you should get 4 positions where your guess and the digest are the same, which would narrow it down to (1/16)*4 of the possibilities, corresponding to "peeling off" 16 bits of entropy.

Figuring out how to enumerate only those values which generate a hex digest that matches the known characters in the hash is left as an exercise for the reader.
It's a little funny to me you added a literal tracking pixel to your website from a VPN company and then came to HN to preach that you don't do any tracking

That said, due to third party cookie changes, tracking pixels have very limited usefulness these days and it's unlikely it actually tracks people over a full 1 day period
The functions/codepoints are there for reasons. If you want to research the reasons and decide that text processing doens't need them, that's one thing. But to simply dismiss it off-hand with the argument "if you have to remove it for security it shouldn't exist in the first place" is just ridiculous. It's like saying "if you have to properly escape parameters in SQL to avoid injection attacks, SQL shouldn't exit in the first place!"

I am continually baffled about why the HN comment sections are such a hotbed of anti-unicode sentiment. Perhaps most of y'all don't have to write software that deals with non-English text in any significant way.

Are they going to at least take some preventative actions? Curbing for profit colleges? Cutting down on predatory market tactics? Screening people for unreasonable loans (i.e. 60,000/yr for art school)?

Or is the plan just to forgive the loans, throw the money on the govt. balance sheet and let the for profit college owners sail away on their yachts.

> >As for rent, the property owners just pass the cost on to the tenants by increasing rent

> Rents would either remain unchanged or go down.

The rent must cover all the costs of the property (+ some profit). If any cost goes up, the rent will go up by at least that much. Anything else is wishful thinking.

If the costs go up so much that it's no longer possible to rent because nobody can afford it, that still won't make the rent go down because the owner isn't going to start taking a loss on it for fun. Instead, they'll sell the property and now it is off the rental market for good.
