I agree, and even if punishing bad behavior is appealing, I think it'd work best if Scooter Co. added sensors so it could tell/see where the rider parked the scooter, and rewarded good parking with free rides (which would also prevent griefing the last rider by quickly dragging it somewhere terrible to get them punished).
My oldest Child is in their teens.

And I do stuff with my kids every day.

Dad time is a everyday thing with my children.

Even if it is for only 20 minuets per child. Or hours.

Homework and spending time with family are very important for my kids.

I used to think you don't need product people. I was wrong
Are you related to a certain Iraqi Communications Minister by any chance?
An important thing to keep in mind is that a substantial amount of calories can be burned outside of formal exercise. Incorporating more walking into your day, general activities that involve movement rather than sitting at a desk, etc
But if you used Monero, they’d have a harder time proving what funds you may have access to.
> The Donbass milita? They have been engaging in various forms of combat with the Ukrainian forces multiple times since the ceasefire in 2015

Both sides are indicating an escalation, though who escalated is in dispute. (Though the motive for Ukraine to escalate when Russia has massed troops on their border and on the same day that Russia recognizes the breakaway republics is somewhat obscure, while the motive for Russia-backed separatists to do so is blindingly obvious.)
Hangxiety: What Is Hangover Anxiety
My parents simply chose to not have internet. We used an old WRT router to boost the neighbors wifi, cracked it, and then had free internet. They had no idea.
I would be glad to not see scooters as the enemy if they weren't so dangerous for everyone involved. Though I guess space is a big factor in that, now that I think about it.
There are effective non-violent tools that can be used against tyranny https://www.aeinstein.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/FDTD.pd...

but I agree in general empire/oligarchy/ruling class won't relinquish control out of feeling bad.
LTT just gets 1/3 of its revenue directly from sponsors because of the success of its merch store now so it is getting more editorial independence. Though you really can't alienate the tech companies if you want access to tech before news emargos etc.
The value proposition of Rust is that you can Rewrite Stuff in it and it's going to generally run faster, with fewer bugs, taking up less RAM and generating less heat in your processor. The rewriting part is the whole point - that's where all the fun is! I'm not sure why so many devs complain about being told to RIIR. Who doesn't want to be using state of the art tools when coding and developing their stuff? Software is eating the world anyway, so why can't Rust eat software?
That’s not true. Saudi Arabia wants to become a major touristic place.
I think that's the joke being made
Ask HN: Wife's Instagram account was deleted – what now?
Today in the morning, she woke up and browsed her Instagram account on her phone. Suddenly, logged out and redirected to her other Instagram (work) account.

I tried to help her find a support ticket, but there is nothing even remotely close to that on "Metas" help page.

Any ideas? Has anyone experienced this before? Are there any Metamates who can help?

This is the email she tried to send them, but it went to void:

"I was on my Instagram page and suddenly got a message on Instagram that I’m logged off. I tried to log in and it said that my account can’t be found. I did not get any email from IG about my account disappearing or it logging out.
What can be done in this situation?"
It's actually not that bad; SQLite has a very abstracted vfs layer that is pretty trivial to port to arbitrary platforms.
Canada's Major Banks Go Offline in Mysterious Hours-Long Outage
Do you mind if I ask how do you even manage to do 60-70 hours a week of productive technical work? I can do maybe 2-3 hours of programming a day before my concentration starts dropping. That plus whatever meetings I have gets me to maybe 4-5 hours of work per day, the rest is just dicking around while staying online on Teams (before it was chatting with people in the office, now it's doing whatever I want at home).

I know there are also people who work longer hours here where I live, but usually they are in some kind of management positions and majority of their time is spent in meetings. All the developers and technical people that I know tend to be a bit lazy. Maybe it's just my social bubble, though.
People are cheering at Canada forfeiting bank accounts. When such policies are normalized we can expect much more of this. This needs to be stopped, both here and in Canada for everyone’s sake.
What if they set up the scooter system such that if you parked the previous scooter incorrectly, the next scooter you rent squirts water on your pants? It's not technologically that difficult.

Or put little fisheye cameras on every scooter and if you park it incorrectly every scooter you walk past for the next 24 hours uses face recognition and blasts insults at you unless you go back and re-park it correctly.
How long did the process take for you? From getting the word out until sale? Once you had an offer, how long did due diligence take?
>they will compel you to hand over any reported crypto holdings and throw you in prison if you refuse.

Has this been tested in court? If your crypto is stored in a brainwallet, you can invoke fifth amendment rights to prevent that from being divulged.
Well… it’s not like they didn’t fuck with a lot of these countries one way or another.
They didn't use his code so license is irrelevant.
Lots of people replying to this comment without actually watching the video or understanding what LTT Labs is.

LTT Labs is their attempt at producing more investigative and informative content that is less rooted in entertainment like their main channels are.
Nerds are, imo, stereotypically terrible listeners.

It's pretty difficult to fail to classify kind behavior imo, barring people with exceptionally poor empathy skills
This is Bret Devereaux' (a military historian frequenting HN front page) review of a Crusader Kings 3 DLC expansion, CK being one of the remaining major grand strategy games. As I like both ACOUP [1] and Paradox games [2], I found it quite interesting.

Another big one is the default-to-safety nature of fusion vs. fission. With fission, if things go wrong, the nuclear process often speeds up and can run out of control. With fusion, generally when things go wrong temperatures dissipate and the fusion process halts naturally.
I thought civil asset forfeiture was limited to drug crimes. What the hell is "depriving the company of his “honest services” during his seven years of employment"? This sounds like they're accusing him of slacking off too much. Is this even a felony? Why is civil asset forfeiture being applied to what seems like a civil matter that should be resolved via lawsuits?
I had a similar thought; TFA:

> Can I just say “Rust developers spend less time debating about who is responsible when issues arise, and they spend less time figuring out how to get a performant solution into shape”?

The author sneaks in the assertion that issue attribution is the primary cost of issue resolution. I don't think this is true at all. What about actually writing & testing the patch?

If Rust has a technical approach to solving issues, then Go has a social approach. The latter is so darn simple that an intermediate Gopher can grok a codebase and contribute patches relatively quickly. Go is easy to hack; it's C with garbage collection and concurrency primitives (and an excellent ecosystem). That's why it was made!

I think Rust's primary value proposition is expressiveness. People enjoy writing Rust, because they can represent complex ideas with few LOC. Safety is a distant second. It's a language for enthusiasts, not products.

If you want language where safety is truly #1, well, Ada is going on half a century of usage in safety-critical systems including aerospace.
Could you please provide some source? I find this really hard to believe. Quick googling led me to some articles about growing ratio of _young_ adults (16 - 23) living with their parents, nothing about adults.
Well said. I would add to that: pair programming is a unique opportunity to create human connections between teammates, which is very valuable in general, and even more valuable in a remote setup.
I used FreeBSD on desktop for a number of years and switched over to OSX and I've been through some of the window management pain. I generally do as much as I can with keyboard hotkeys but I do have a trackpad connected to my desktop now as well.

As far as window management, I use contexts for my switcher, rectangle for hotkey-based window management, and stay for automated per-app & per-display window management

It is very slow and does more draw calls than a modern video game, melting laptop batteries:

Same guy from this video did a series of videos rewriting the renderer in a weekend or so and going hundreds or thousands of times faster, with more advanced unicode/ligature/language support.
You could have easily gone down the path of lying, cheating and stealing. Not to mention issues with authority could sabotage your career.
It's so disappointing to see people going on tirades against these things for no good reason other than seemingly to fit in with the trendy new "anti-techbro" luddite mindset. Automatic delivery robots and e-scooters are awesome. The future is awesome and we're living it and these people just want to be downers about it.
I just wanted to add salient to sentience and sapience ;)
Your comments about rocket landings just speak of your own ignorance. Even the guy who made video you linked wouldn't agree with your terrible opinion.

> Hyperloop

What lie? Have you actually done any research.

Musk said he worked on something, he is not gone develop it as he has no time, but if somebody else wants to, they can. And to help that he opened up this BluePaper:

https://www.tesla.com/sites/default/files/blog_images/hyperl...

That's literally it. No produce was ever promised. The only thing that was promised was to deliver a BluePaper and they did.

> Semi

A produce they are delivering in slow numbers and there is no question that they will deliver more. Its a question of battery availability and business strategy.

> VTOL with pressurized air!

Again not true. You keep mixing up things talked about and things promised.

For the new Roadster they said they would work on a SpaceX package that would be able to for a small time hover a vehicle. They have neither sold that package only talked about that they are working on it.

> Pedo guy!

So guy was an asshole to him, and then he was an asshole back. They are both not the nicest people. So what.

> FSD! Robotaxis!

Like many others he was wrong in their prediction. Like many others were on the same topic. Ok, fair. But the rest of your comment is nonsense.

> And abusing their workers?

More nonsense. Tesla workers with stock options have done far better then any autoworkers. Many SpaceX engineers retired as millionaires. Overall working at SpaceX its highly likely that you would have made more then comparable engineers specially of comparable seniority.
Which "facts" does the article call "myths"? The word "myth" exists twice in it, one of which is in the heading.

That's just part of phrasing everything in catchy popular science terms. Apparently, if you don't do that, then nobody is going to read your article as it reads too boring. (I also find that sad.)

The "train yourself out of obesity" idea that one of the interviewed scientists calls "zombie idea" is not an "ordinary long-accepted fact". Maybe in bro science circles, where obese people are generally just regarded as lazy who just don't get their act together, but that's now how actual medical experts think about this.

The article is another piece in the puzzle of trying to understand how things work. It's not a "myth buster".
There's actually an awful lot of conversations going on in the background of the first book - loads between House Harkonnen, conversations between Lady Jessica and the Reverend Mother, and with Leto and his entourage. There's also a ton of in-Sietch conversations between the members of Sietch Tabr. The warfare on Arrakis doesn't feature all that much compared to culture and politics!

I do think there's a lot of space to explore (pun not intended) with 4X games - "conquer everything with guns" is pretty overdone by this point. I'm really interested in what games can do outside of violence where the options haven't been explored as much.
People shouldn't fool themselves, Linus is running a business, and the clickbait titles and thumbnails bring in viewers. Linus even stated this in a video.

I do think his heart is in the right place and his team is able to produce high quality, both in terms of the content and the production. If LTT is serious about LTT Labs, then they need someone like Ian Cutress, and LTT is one of the few place that would be able make him a genuine offer.
I don’t get why he was so upset about it. Microsoft didn’t want to accept his offer. But still WinGet is not as good as AppGet. So if he just had kept going his way with AppGet, maybe WinGet would have never gotten any traction. Like a lot of projects, Microsoft more or less abandoned WinGet right away. You still can’t do „winget update“ and update all your installed packages. For me one of the main features of a package manager.
Learning to code a SaaS? Don't use a JavaScript framework
In this context, "behind the scenes" == keep the place running, like moderators I did not name, IT support, etc.
India has a similar law. You will be detained from leaving the country even if you are not the principal borrower and you've just stood as a guarantor for someone else's loan the bank can issue a lookout circular without even approaching a court. One of my offshore resources was arrested at the airport[1] even though he was not the pricipal borrower of the loan.

The funny thing about these incidents is that, all these countries want to have startup hubs, all the while forgetting that the very definition of a startup means risk taking where 9 out 10 companies go bankrupt.

One of the reasons I still think the west (UK, EU, US) are still some of the best countries to have a thriving business environment. You can be assured (at least a vast majority of the time) that no crazy laws like these would be enacted that would encroach on fundamental rights of a citizen over a civil issue.

There are a few VCs that work with defense startups.

Reach out to Josh Wolfe from lux capital, or Delian from Founders fund.
Seconded, they seem to be getting less press samples or have less manpower to write articles. I don't even think there's more than two or three people working there anymore.
I'm sorry, but there are tons of young people from religious or conservative families who wait until marriage to have sex and marry young, and/or don't begin their sexual exploration until well into college. Your anecdotal point notwithstanding. All human beings are equally sexual in terms of their drive and interest, but religion can and does alter psychology and behavior.

There are places where religion is common but isn't taken that seriously, and then there are places were it's common and it is taken very seriously. Sounds like your school was the former and that's fine. It doesn't preclude the existence of the latter.
This is what annoys me most about LTT: they have nuggets of value in most videos, but they're buried under a mountain of optimized dirt.

It's cool to see them try a different format and hope they succeed in bringing proper empirical-mindedness to the top of the presentation.
State of California Covid-19 Plan
Announced by Gov. Newsome today, the State of California will pay almost $2 billion dollars to "combat misinformation" about covid-19, among other items listed.
LXC via Proxmox is great for stateful deployments on baremetal servers. It's very easy to backup entire containers with the state (SQLite, Postgres dir) to e.g. NAS (and with TrueNAS then to S3/B2). Best used with ZFS raid, with quotas and lazy space allocation backups are small or capped.

Nothing stops one from running Docker inside LXC. For development I usually just make a dedicated priviledged LXC container with nesting enabled to avoid some known issues and painful config. LXC containers could be on a private network and a reverse proxy on the host could map to the only required ports, without thinking what ports Docker or oneself could have accidentally made public.
As a counterpoint, Twitter "threads" are a thing and you can find a lot of good discourse on them. I don't know how I feel about the length constraint--part of me thinks that the people who for whom the constraint is a toxicity trap are going to be the same people who don't avail themselves of Reddit's lack of length constraint and thus come across as baity and otherwise toxic no matter the platform.

Similarly, I think that Reddit optimizes for groupthink even more than Twitter does. Good luck having an insightful conversation in /r/pol or /r/conservative or even some technology subreddit.

And mind, I think Twitter Inc is absolutely awful and Twitter is a societal ill. I just don't perceive a significant degree of difference between it and Reddit with respect to discourse.
If it's possible for a parent to set up MDM in a way that a child can't remove, then what's stopping a domestic abuser from setting up MDM in a way the victim can't remove?
I'd argue that "you are wrong" can be hurtful, rather than is. It's all about delivery, the culture/environment you're in, and how receptive a person is to negative feedback.

The second point is a great way to encourage silencing dissent. Interrogating why people made decisions is part of both science and engineering. Assuming they made all the right choices sounds odd to me.
It's interesting to see zig building up steam and surpassing nim at the end. I haven't used either language yet but find them both exciting for different reasons, but it's interesting to see zig's growth. Andrew Kelley has really done a phenomenal job at fostering a close-knit and positive community and I hope nothing but the best for them. It seems like zig came onto the scene right when a subgroup of programmers, myself included, are discovering a passion for getting back to the basics and visiting pure C again for their personal projects.

I also wonder how many of these might not be using zig directly but using it for it's awesome cross-compiler features.
> Doesn't something have to be trash for leaving it somewhere to count as littering? After all, improperly parking a car isn't littering, even if it's a Zipcar or something.

Any object improperly placed so as to be a public nuisance or health concern is litter. If you abandon an object obstructing sidewalks, it's a public nuisance.

In the case of a zipcar improperly parked there are more relevant laws with more severe penalties, automobiles have a whole world of explicit laws governing their safe use for obvious reasons.

In the case of bicycle rideshares we've long had precedent of a more responsible operator; velib in paris had dedicated bike racks for storing the bikes and the borrowers would be fined for abandoning the bikes. Velib employed staff in vans to regularly collect the bikes when they weren't returned to the racks. This is what it means to at least try not be negligent.
I put the couple hours' weather forecast on my Apple Watch display as a reminder to get more walks in on work days (especially in WFH life where I'm not regularly walking to lunch).

It is interesting to watch forecasts shift as conditions change. Having it on my wrist, I find I check it about as often as I check the time. Even if I'm not really planning to do much with the information.

Weather is one of the oldest forms of small talk. Even when you aren't worried about extreme weather events, weather is part of life.
Fifteen years gone by
watching tech fads come and go.
Was that time well spent?

This website had a huge influence over my worldview and I often find myself searching through the archived comments for all sorts of topics. Here's to 15 more years!
I am also not exactly a fan of capitalism, and agree the line between slavery and wage slavery is thinner than most westerners think. But it's a lot easier (in every sense) for me not go party in Dubai than it is to live without pants or even a computer; just like a remedy of "just give them their passports back" is a lot easier to put into action than a way for Bangladeshi tailors to more fully capture their labor value on the global market.

Living there, as in being born there and having family and friendly connections, also presents a different set of moral and personal challenges vs. deciding to open a branch of my business there or taking a vacation there. In an abstract moral sense I'd like to divest myself of the US for a decade now, but that would be both materially dangerous until an alternative citizenship is effectively secured, and unfair to my family members who still live there.
I'm not trying to be critical of your project, sorry if it came off that way. I'm just trying to clarify when you say "it's all been done before", exactly what in the current work had been done in your project. Although they are both in the fusion domain, I don't see how the current work builds on anything done in your work, even in a very distant way.
Agree. Defence suppliers, like the ICE in Neuromancer, need to look more and more like their customers, from hiring ex-military staff to being partly physically colocated, before their customers will accept them and give them hints about which ways deals are likely to go, and which are soon to come out for tender.
The snake is eating it's own tail, reddit has become /r/assholedesign
Civil-asset forfeiture is medieval-level governance clearly designed from the outset to skirt checks-and-balances that are supposed to exist in our legal system.

There are no words too strong or negative for this. It is sick-minded and dangerous.
STH (serveTheHome.com)

LOVE that site..(and it’s forums, and Patrick)
That’s kind of subjective, isn’t it? A lot of people don’t feel threatened by businesses but instead feel threatened by a faceless and unapproachable government bureaucracy. See the DMV.

When anti-business or anti-government ideology gives moral license to antisocial behavior, nothing is gonna work out for you.

Coincidentally, we're working on these problems with Vale [0] by obviating the need for unsafe, while still having single ownership's performance benefits, by taking generational indices (a common Rust/C++ technique) and building them into the language itself, and by moving borrow checking to the region level instead of the object level [1].

IIRC the official line is that it's to prevent destruction of evidence.

Personally doesn't seem like a good enough reason to me. (I'm suspicious it's partly to help their case by intimidating suspects, give a reason for keeping TAC units budgets high, and b/c the TAC guys think it's fun lol)

Especially considering that if you knock down doors in the USA you're bound to get people who shoot back.
