I'm currently using Linux (Ubuntu 21.10 on a 2015 Core i3), Windows (on a 10th gen core i7 laptop with lots of RAM but an iGPU), and macOS on an M1 Mac Mini, macOS definitely feels the slowest.

I suspect if my Windows laptop was closer to the other devices it would be slower, but Linux just feels so much faster than macOS in actual tasks. The interactions are so much "snappier", whereas with macOS most interactions feel like a chore (I think it's the animations).
This is very cool and useful. I will provide some wish-list for this offline. I love the idea and I will use this.
That's not necessarily true. You could be a cloud provider offering compute resources within a container, for example.
Yeah, I didn't see any evidence in that article that it was positive - for all we know it it's the brain serving up a collection of every time you told the waiter "you too" right after they said "enjoy your meal".
Those are true points, but I'll make some counterpoints.

1. I've found the news to be the worst way to get information about covid. My state health department website and other sites like it have given me much better details.

2. Yeah, I need to know if there are things that might block my route when driving. Google Maps does a better job of that than any local news that I've seen.

3. Plenty of people drive Volkswagens and are perfectly happy with them. They didn't let the news tell them how awful they were for this practice. For that matter, they didn't let the news tell them how awful Musk is or how wonderful some other execs in the industry are either. And you know what? They are just fine for that.

Most of your other points don't seem to have much to do with the news being talked about. I don't think the article was telling you not to check the weather.
I think it's reasonable to believe that third party CDNs would pop up in the world.

The feature would be that it's structurally decentralized in a way that decouples content creators from delivery.
Most of this is pretty much nonsense. Battery system are already lighter, and with next generation structural batteries cells like next generation Tesla and BYD the battery added weight of batteries compared to pure structure isn't actually that large.

Next generation vehilces will actually be lighter then comparable ICE vehicles, specially when fully fueled.

An Hydrogen ICE engine is pretty much the worst of all world. You don't get the amazing driving experience of an EV powered vehicle and you have to pay far more for your fuel.

And bringing back emissions and driving with ICE is really just next level stupid.

There is a reason pretty much every non-Japanese company has declared the technology dead. And those that work on it mostly still do it based on government funded project supported by fossil fuel lobby.
Build a project with enough dependencies and there will always be dependency issues which you will need to fix by forking upstream. For Rust and Go the package manager can trace the codepath and identify conflicting type exports.
Except these claims are not empirically unfalsifiable.
I don't think I need to watch any videos from that channel in order to have the opinion "videos from anonymous YouTube channels are unlikely to be high quality news sources."

Even if I did watch their videos, what would that tell me? In what context should I judge them? Do they cite sources other than their anonymous presenter's own knowledge? Do I have sufficient knowledge to evaluate the sources they give me, if they give me any?

You haven't really answered my question: What has this entity done to earn your trust?

Whether the store page is visible. A publisher might want to keep the page up to direct users to a newer title that deprecates the old one. Or they might hide a page if they no longer have rights. I also noticed that Prey (2006) is delisted to presumably avoid confusion with Prey (2017).
> we already know that many of the effects are not possible under the proscribed methods

Do we? This is news to me. Do you have any studies or explanations as to how this is the case?
Let's be clear that the CCLA is not an organization that many Canadians have even heard of (unlike the ACLU), and that their stance really doesn't carry any weight more than any other organization weighing in on this.

The act was passed specifically to curtail charter abuses from the previous bill and in the end, still answers to the charter.
> No one was materially hurt

You must be kidding. As governor, Parson is the most powerful person in the state. And he's threatening to prosecute people who turned out to be innocent (arguably were known to be innocent from the word go). When flagrant abuse of power, and evil intent occur, its impossible that "No one was materially hurt".
They don't mention it, but I hope this means that their titles will now be available on geforce now. IIRC the previous approach of pulling their titles from geforce now et al was due to "exclusivity" or whatever and trying to force people into their ecosystem.

I'm probably just missing some fundamental knowledge, but why does podman need it's own network stack? Doesn't linux include functionality for things like virtual networks, bridges, virtual networks and similar?

EDIT: the second "virtual networks" meant to say "virtual interfaces"
>Monero is explicitly designed to remain CPU mineable

You're not wrong, but it can be and is mined on GPUs. Not sure about the payback period though because it is very CPU sensitive and the top benchmarks are for AMD's EPYC processors which don't come cheap. An i9-12k handily mines several times more than an Nvidia GPU so GPU mining payback is also potentially slow.

At least according to the online guides it's also a losing proposition relative to the costs of electricity. So then allegedly the only way to profitably mine it is on someone else's energy and maybe their hardware too. For anyone truly seeking anonymity it seems like far less work to buy Monero from a localcoin vendor rather than mint your own, unless you have a lot of free time and hardware on your hands. Which may explain why antivirus software assumes if you're mining with xmrig, you've been pwned.

One specific political group derives a lot of their personal identity from being nasty on social media and making it worse for everybody else. I think that's why this alternative platform will fail. I also think it's why they are crying about free speech: their biggest bullshit tool is social media and they don't want to lose that.

Frostbite at the extremities is significantly a consequence of vascular constriction which prevents warm blood from flowing in and replacing heat lost to the elements.

Anything that reduces that vasoconstriction (or actively dilates your blood vessels) will significantly delay the onset of frostbite. On net your body will lose heat faster as a result, but that can be offset by engaging other systems in your body responsible for generating heat.

Your view on what is a good build is different to mine (which it should be!). I as part of my job sometimes fix laptops.

Whilst some folks might marvel at that and think its a work of engineering glory.

To me it just looks like the IT equivalent of a john deere tractor. It'll get the job done, bit fancy, but their going to bleed every dollar out of you to do it...and your stuffed if it breaks and you want to fix it. Also after you've been in their loop for a decade....fat luck breaking out of that companies buying cycle easily. Which results in me thinking....eh avg build. avg device. Its definitely nothing special that's just marketing hype.

You may have interest in the writings of the Niskanen Center https://www.niskanencenter.org/ They work from a similar position. For example, I was hugely impressed by this essay https://www.niskanencenter.org/what-the-pandemic-revealed/

Resume driven development is real. Who wants a crud app on their resume when they can have a crud + ML app on their resume? I remember back in like 2016 recruiters devoured anyone with the slightest bit of ML experience on their resumes: it fed back into the ego of developers, and suddenly everyone was an ML expert who could do no better than load a JSON of data and import keras. What a strange trip that time was
But they are engaged in illegal activities, which you can find with a cursory Google search. And blocking borders and pipelines can arguably be classified as economic terrorism.

They are fully welcome to protest peacefully, on foot, in front of parliament like everyone else.
It's fundamentally non-serious to claim the protestors were following all applicable mask mandates. You're the first person I've seen to claim that. Take a look at any picture in the news, or that the protestors have posted.
This is timely.

A/B testing doesn't lead to coherent thinking, which is essential to success in creative works.

That is, you can run this test in precisely two places: In early planning(what kinds of story do people want) and when adding finishing touches(alternative versions of a scene).

Everything else has to come from self-feedback, a structural plan for what the novel "does": Does it explore certain themes? Does it go deep into a character's psyche? Is it a way to build up a world? Once you've set that plan, you have the tool you need to rubric yourself and determine what MUST be written(as in when you see a MUST in RFC specs) to satisfy the plan and what can be cut before it ever hits the page. And so most of the process never needs another person in the loop, it's just grinding through the technical details of how to make the story work given that spec. Seeking external advice is more counterproductive than not when you get into these details, because, as with the innards of coding, it's a spaghetti of dependencies that you can't get many "quick fixes" for.

When we look at a software product, there's still a great(and probably underserved) need for that kind of structured rubric, but most of the work is biased towards delivering a high quality of service according to specific metrics, which is something that can be evaluated on a feature-by-feature basis. Often, in fact, the metrics get in the way of addressing the structural problem by creating conflicts of interest, especially when profit motive appears. That leads you towards, e.g. productivity tools that dark-pattern in some ads so that you misclick them.
Tianducheng: A housing estate in Xingqiao, China that imitates Paris
I agree that it's not easy. While most major publications in your area have opinion columns and a leaning, I would still read them for the facts they share.

For more local news, I have found a decent strategy. This may sound weird, but I've joined local Facebook communities in my area to track the sources of the articles their members share. If you ignore the pro-/anti- rhetoric in the comment sections, you may find that some of the publications are actually legitimate sources of information about the latest happenings in the community. It doesn't have to be a scandal all the time (it often isn't). Instead, I read about new Covid regulations, about the struggles and successes of local business, about new legislation being tabled by the state government, about elections and their candidates, etc.

Most news is surprisingly human and humble. Opinions and partisan publications have made news out to be this incendiary thing whereas, in reality, it's just a bunch of people trying to live their lives and make decisions in a world of little certainty.
The best and worst thing about stress is that once you get used to it, it doesn't affect you later. so that's the case for me. I felt so numb. I guess what I should have done was to step aside without so much stress, but I didn't. If you have a chance to step aside, I suggest you consider it. your job is not more important than your life.

No, of course not. But let's not change the language in ways that benefits those use cases at the detriment of more common use cases.

Of course, if there are ways to keep more or less the same semantics, while increasing performance, by all means it should be done !

> I'm a firm believer in quality over quantity when it comes to news

When it comes to news, I'm of the opinion that one should strive for diversity of opinion rather than quality. As you noted, all media has a bias so you should see what everyone's biases are. You will never get truth from any single media outfit so cast a wide net.

> What worked well for me was getting a print subscription to the Economist.

Why would you pay for something that has ads? It would be like paying facebook for a facebook account.
It's not. Complaining about something that only exists to strategically hedge against a competitior's dominance but just gets in the way at the user level is not the same as the infamous Dropbox quote.
There is over time, just not at once. You gain much more information working at a company than you have from the outside. If it sucks, quit and go to a better one.

It's that willingness to cut your losers that many people don't have. Lots of folks are miserable in their jobs (you see a number in this thread) but then perform all sorts of rationalizations on why it has to be that way. It doesn't: if you're miserable, that's your brain telling you that it's the wrong place, and you should go put in some effort to find the right place.
Great idea - appreciate you sharing.

> If the original content is solely on Twitter, I question its value on the large scale.

This goes for the web in general I guess, but Twitter, like any source needs some filtering and HN filters just fine. If it makes the homepage with more than 100 upvotes I'll have a look.

> You don't see stuff like Newton's Principia, Aristotle's Nichomachean Ethics, Shakespeare's Macbeth, the Mahabharata, or Confucius's Analects on Twitter.

You don't see them on Medium, Facebook. Wordpress or any one of a 100 other outlets either. The classics are the classics because they went through 100's of years of filtering and in the most literal sense they stood the test of time.

> Conversely, the platform is heavily optimized for rage-bait of the "Burn the witch!" "Lynch the black!, or "Throw the Jew down the well!" school.

There's that. But there is also some pretty good content, you just need to be very selective.

> And of course the overwhelming bulk of Twitter consists of junk like which vapid "celebrity" is currently having sex with which other vapid "celebrity".

As opposed to Google News and millions of other news outlets? You seem to be angry with media in general rather than with Twitter per-se, which I can totally sympathize with but let's not throw out the baby with the bathwater, it is not all bad and that is what this blanket ban is all about.

> It's the supermarket tabloid of online discourse.

No, it also has the supermarket tabloid of online discourse. But it also has fascinating exchanges between scientists and other people with interesting jobs, as well as a huge network of other professionals. Like everything else online: Twitter is what you make it. I get more - and better - feedback on my projects on Twitter than on HN, and the relationships tend to last longer than just an article and the immediate response on that.

I still write to my blog and post the links on Twitter because I want to control where my content ends up, so you won't see me write 'articles' for twitter, though I've done the occasional thread when it was inconvenient to write a blog post, which typically is a very large amount of work.

Anyway, this is all moot: nobody forces you to visit Twitter, you can filter out the links if you don't want to see them, that's pretty easy.
No, I'm saying that too many experienced devs who don't survive fall into the complacency trap. Not that all of them do.

Author of the blog post here - it's very cool to see this on HN!

I wrote this as someone who considers himself a half-decent software engineer trying to use ML for a side project and feeling frustrated by all the effort and "accidental complexity" involved. Why focus on software engineers and ML in this post/rant/company? Because "software is eating the world" and having ML be more accessible to software engineers will broaden the range of problems they can solve.

Thanks for all the comments - I acknowledge all/most of the criticisms as valid. A SaaS/AutoML solution won't work for everyone and definitely not for every problem, and it won't be the only answer to making ML more approachable.
If exceptions are regularly thrown the software has a bad design and must be fixed. Non-exceptional stuff must of course not be handled through exceptions - no exception should ever be thrown if the software operates as it is expected to.
Our society is still learning about and adapting to digital goods. The end goal is obvious but unfocussed, we want digital goods to be treated like physical ones. But how do we get there? How do you craft laws to get that result and things still make sense? I'm not sure anyone knows that yet.
I do not find this advice correct. When we do not manage your anxiety, directing you to anger can put you in very bad situations.
The hardest thing about ML is getting right data in right format. This is the same of pretty much any other program, but ML has a special place.
