If 5G was using spectrum way outside the band that these altimeters are supposed to be using... then we wouldn't have this issue. Those 737s aren't new, they certainly had permission to use that spectrum for years and while they may have had years to fix their equipment, it's certainly not as trivial as "add a high pass filter".

Now, I do agree that this should have been caught 5-10 years ago, when the standard was being developed. Boeing's incompetence wouldn't surprise me, which is probably why we see "FAA says problems for Boeing in 5G" as the headline, instead of "Aircraft companies warn of interference in safety, navigation equipment, ask FCC to reconsider" as the headline, 5 years ago. Although, as noted in the article, it seems that the FAA has been warning about the conflict - I'm just surprised that the FCC would go ahead with 5G if they had been flagged early enough.

So here we are, the FCC, in its negligence, assigned conflicting portions of the spectrum, Boeing, in its incompetence, didn't catch it - and now it's a big mess.
Well, there's nothing wrong with using Anki if it works for you! I know that a lot of folks need offline access and/or other features which Anki provides which I don't have, and that's totally fine.

I always ask this not because I necessarily want to convert people to use my thing, but because I always love to hear what features people need and what I can improve. In case of offline access it is something that's technically on my tentative roadmap, but very far off into the future, so indeed for anyone who needs that Anki's the better choice.

> allowed for Anki exports

That's something that I'm planning to add very soon actually! Well, maybe not exactly Anki exports (I haven't yet researched as to what that would entail), but just generic functionality to be able to export the built-in decks as a .csv (which I'll be happy to tweak/improve to make it easier to import).
I have the same reaction. 4 vCPU + 24GB for free, WTF? I wonder what that's costing them.
Right. Thanks. I was distracted by a coworker and should have read more carefully.

I see you haven't had much experience with American police.
I used to pay for Premium. Then they kept making the service worse and worse. Eventually I decided that they don't deserve my money.

- YouTube Music is trash. I was an inside early adopter and all of my feedback was ignored. I originally subscribed for Google Play Music (which was pretty good) but I switched back to my own collecting.

- They removed email subscription notices.

- YouTube Originals were awful. They took some of my favourite creators to make slightly better content that I can no longer share with my friends. Not to mention that you were never notified of these videos because they were completely different from normal videos in all of the YouTube UIs. (Thankfully went back on this, but I had left by that point).

- Videos always play at 360p on my 4k monitor. I need to manually up the quality at least 90% of the time. My internet is fantastic and I never see a stutter after raising the quality.

- The recommendations are always awful. I don't use them often but when I do it is all things that I have already watched.

- They keep trying to turn auto-play back on. (Although to be fair this isn't new).

- It still has ads! They just promote the Premium content (that I don't want) instead of other ads. Sure, less obtrusive but still annoying. Just let me use the damn service I have been paying for for years.

I understand the argument that I shouldn't be using the service if I'm not paying for it. In fact I don't use an adblocker on most sites because of this belief (I just back out of obnoxious sites). However 1. I've paid enough that I consider it fair for years of future viewing and 2. costing YouTube money is actually beneficial to me, because if it were to fold the content would move somewhere better.

To me YouTube is a great example of the cost of forever quadratic growth. They had a good product, it was profitable with ads or profitable if people payed for Premium. But they need to keep sucking more value from users otherwise their shareholders get angry. But I've been sucked dry and I'm quitting.
>> The night gives you freedom—from expectations, from obligations, and from distractions. It allows you to just be. “The daytime forces all these identity possibilities on you,” Rufus told me. “The nighttime, with its silence and its darkness and its solitude, helps you settle more into who you really are.”

Very relatable. Seems like a common theme in these "ultra-introverts" is the desire to escape in some way. From that perspective, I can see where the concerns of it being an "unhealthy" behavior stem from.

I'm kind of curious why the behavior is skewed more towards night than early morning as I've had similar, peaceful, calm-before-the-storm, experiences from waking up very early (3am-6am).
Yeah, this makes sense. I concede that idiomatic C# uses value types sometimes, although they're more pervasive in idiomatic Go.
How about the GitHub Student Developer Pack? https://education.github.com/pack

You get $100 in DigitalOcean credits. That's 20 months of hosting a VPS; plenty of time to figure out how to come up with $5 per month thereafter.
There was a time before ads on the internet, and there was content there. Great content even. I would love to see what people create when they do it just because they want to, on their own terms and their own time, rather than chasing what will be self-sustainable or profitable.

This still exists in some places. Archive of Our Own is a great example. SCP is another. Wikipedia and StackOverflow too, for this website's audience... Or this website, indeed

A step multiple municipalities have taken in the past is to disband their entire police department and create a new one from scratch, which makes it feasible to eject large numbers of bad actors who would normally protect each other from expulsion while also setting new policies. I don't personally believe that's a complete solution, but it's a logical step and allows you to retain your existing power structures and systems without having to pass a bunch of new laws and create new roles. There are probably many police departments that would not really benefit from this step or merit it.

Another step would be to recognize that you cannot reform american police departments' roles in non-violent crime cases and offload some or all of those entirely to other agencies that don't carry guns. This doesn't fix everything, but it removes many opportunities for things to go wrong while also enabling armed police to focus on the threats that really need them.

Living in Europe this question doesn't compute at all. Such a foreign idea to even contemplate. If it doesn't have a sidewalk, it must be a country road or a highway right? Couldn't happen in a reasonably densely populated area...?
>"OBD2 as is required by the NHTSA, enables anyone with a scanner to view the diagnostic information, as well as the state of variables on a running engine. Say what you will about electric cars, but any vehicle with a standard diagnostic port is easily able to be worked on."

ODB2 reveals only some trouble codes; manufacturer-specific tools will tell you much more about what's going on.

>"With modern telematics, and datapoints that the manufacturers have been able to record, giving the ability to access thay information to third party repair and the customers, you can have more choice, and get this, ability to have repairs done."

I don't understand what you mean by this, and I've spent many years working in automotive diagnostics.

>"Dealers are not anywhere near always the best place to get a car repaired. In 10 years time, when the new cars age, they will need repair and maintenance that the dealer may overcharge for. If I had to service both of ny cars at the dealership, oil changes would cost me 3 times as much as I can do myself, brakes cost 2 times as much as a local shop can perform. Dealers don't provide a greater service to a vehicle than a standard mechanic shop can provide other than verified manufacturer parts at markup. "

I agree that dealers aren't always best, but they're generally quite good when the vehicle is less than about 10 years old. They have all the best tools, training, and experience with those vehicles. Independent mechanics (especially those who focus on a few brands) are generally better with older vehicles.
Yes, but you may not want to give the AI additional training material for it to better identify you (if it were used on a crowd of people for example).
What are the equivalent edge cases in XFS, ZFS, ext4, Reiser4, Reiser5, bcachefs, or f2fs that make btrfs worth considering on a level playing field?
I am perplexed that this makes headlines. Even the free market has spoken. People pay premium to live in a more dense areas where the stuff they enjoy and interact with is within their proximity.

Interesting how successful the car manufacturer lobby was in the US, transforming whole cities and life styles of ordinary Americans for generations.
In addition to incognito, also Chromecast. A Chromecast will insert ads before videos added to the queue by non-premium accounts. As a result I got a family account so I wouldn't have to watch ads before videos my wife enqueued.

Did they fix that you have to update it only through GitHub?
Having worked on a largely ad-supported website in the early '10s, I can definitely say the rise of ad blockers had a meaningful impact on ad revenue. I didn't mind this at all, I much preferred the product investing more effort in making the subscription that removed ads have attractive features, but if users had a way to also get all of the subscription features without paying, I don't think the business would have been able to sustain itself.

> It's weird that people just think because it's available over the Internet it should be free because "this isn't how it worked in 1993".

The idea is older than the 1993. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_wants_to_be_free

when it comes to the vast majority of the content on youtube, it was created by someone other than google with the expectation that it would be free.

There is now an expectation that people should be able to find and listen to any song they want on youtube (to a lesser extent movies and TV shows too), but that has less to do with how people feel about the internet and more about our broken copyright system and that most of that content used to be broadcast to the public.

If youtube were behind a paywall most people wouldn't spend as much time (if any) watching youtube videos and far fewer people would bother creating content for it. That'd be a losing situation for Google since they need the public's eyes on ads and a steady stream of data to mine from both content creators and viewers.
If every Snapchat user paid $2/month, wouldn't Snapchat have decent revenue? For some service the infrastructure might cost a lot, but I don't think it applies to Snapchat (it's a very "ephemeral" photo-sharing platform, after all).

Another way would be to charge for every photo you upload. Those that share more pay more, which would make sense.

You have some kind of fantasy-like misconception of SV tech workers. Most of the SV tech workers I know consider themselves not very rich at all (due to how much the cost of living is here) and definitely not snobby or daring enough to annoy an officer.

I'll note that while body cam footage and citizen recordings have helped bring visibility to police misconduct, in general they don't seem to have actually fixed anything. In some cases they increase unrest because now when a police officer is acquitted for doing something, people can look at the footage and get even more upset about it. Cops also frequently disable their cams and aren't punished for it.

Body cams might be an example of something that is good on paper but actually just distracts people from things that actually address a problem.

Its true that fiat money's value is somewhat speculative, but speculation still has a specific meaning. It means you are investing not because you believe in the future value proposition of the asset (such as dividend payments, or liquidity value increase if all fixed assets of an enterprise were sold), but only because you expect the market price to increase. Often you expect the market price to increase for no reason other than you know many other people are speculating, so there is really no there, there.
> and if everyone were to start using Vanced overnight, YouTube wouldn't be able to justify staying up indefinitely.

I doubt this. Youtube provides google with a lot more than a means a push ads. It gives them massive amounts of data about the viewers and the content creators to mine for their own use. They collect that data if you view ads on the platform or not.
Probably, although I suspect Nim wouldn't have been a good choice because we were deploying on Lambda and we were using a lot of libraries for which there probably aren't good Nim alternatives (e.g., various cloud databases).
Perhaps you never lost data from it years after it was billed as ready for use, but many people did. I've never lost data on Reiser3 or Reiser4. I've not used bcachefs or f2fs much yet, but I've never lost data on those either.
Sometimes the worse outcome for oneself is necessary to demonstrate one's principles, and, when combined with others doing the same, effect a better long-term outcome for everybody in that society.

Edit: Weighing the short-term, personal best outcome against the long-term, public best outcome with any kind of objectivity is usually impossible, due to the highly unpredictable nature of the latter.

They weren't legally prevented from having the feature (e.g. they didn't turn off the feature for public safety reasons), so they made the choice to remove the feature I paid for.

Fayetteville is less than 100K people, and the entire metro area (the so-called "Northwest Arkansas" region) is about 500K people. It seems small, self-contained, and isolated.

I live in Alexandria, a famous historical neighborhood in the Washington DC metro area. Alexandria proper has about 160K people, in a metropolis of 6-7 million, and Alexandria attracts a large number of outside visitors from around the region because of its notoriety.

I think that eliminating parking requirements for businesses is an interesting idea worth consideration. But I wonder how far this can really be taken in my city. We already have high and problematic overflow of visitor parking into residential neighborhoods. I wonder if Fayetteville can pull this off primarily because of its size.
Requiring two-factor authentication on NuGet.org
Sure, but they are still collecting anyway despite them having been unable to put an ad in front of my eyes for several years now. I understand they are probably just doing it "in case of", but the more paranoid part of myself is wondering if that's all there is.
Porn is not sexual, it is anti-sexual. Young adults are having less sex than prior generations. The birth rate is collapsing. To equate compulsive consumption of a synthetic substitute for real sex and the natural reason for its existence is ridiculous.

Like equating criticizing unhealthy eating of candy and junk food to an opposition to "food" would be similar.
Many judges, police, and prosecutors agree with you that the victims "should have known better" and that their cases are not important in the grand scheme of things, which is why it is more difficult at every step of the way to get any sex crime through the court system.

Many in the media also agree with you. So do many in the wider society. (Including many in the ridiculously male-dominated HN.)

All of these factors contribute to why if a victim even goes to court, not only is the likelihood of actual consequences for the perpetrator absurdly low, but the experience of going down that path will be horrible. Instead of sympathy, they get an avalanche of contempt and shame dumped on them.
I think it's more a comment on the general ecosystem and the vendors.

You could have completely FOSS hardware and FOSS software, but if all of the books you want to read are owned by publishers that refuse to sell them without DRM, what's the point? You'll basically be limited to self-published, DRM free stuff and Public Domain books.
>replace it with... a new copy of that something because you didn't change the rules.

You don't abolish police -- you abolish policing. In order to do this society needs to identify and eliminate the reasons for crime in the first place--i.e., ensuring access to basic needs like food and housing, for one thing. Abolition necessarily involves a transformation of our entire society, and may take more than one generation.
Google is so powerful they can basically mold their audience and is one of the most profitable companies in the world. I do not care if consumers want more control over their lives and do not wish to be propagandized by ads. Nor do I mind if they don't want to transfer more wealth to the fabulously wealthy.

The transactional relationship morality being posited is more appropriate for relatively equal parties, or for the stronger party to give the the weaker party. For the weaker parties to owe stringent obligations to the cosmically stronger party creates a positive feedback loop of oppression. You might reply, but that's how the economy works. You have now advanced one step in your understanding.
>" The local mechanics are often more skilled and more experienced than their dealership counterparts (simple money explains this). The whole idea every manufacture found some unique solution to complex rules and regulations, or that skilled mechanics cannot buy the equipment needed to fix these cars is just not true."

Dealership mechanics are usually more junior (less experienced) than independent mechanics, but they spend all their time working on a much smaller range of models, so they're generally better on those vehicles. Having every special tool, and a great deal of training helps too.

>"If nothing else, the number of videos on youtube telling people how to properly fix their vehicles when their dealer gives them some BS diagnostic should indicate the skill level of those dealer shops."

In general, the dealers are very good with recent models, and less good with older ones. The people doing youtube videos are often ex-dealership mechanics, who have a lot of experience with older models, and are usually better than the current dealership staff (on the older models).

>"The less technology that is only fixable by the company's high priests, the better. If they cannot build serviceable items, then maybe the device is too dangerous to be in public. "

There are many devices which are extremely difficult for third parties to service, including aircraft engines. I don't think this necessarily means the items are dangerous, but it does mean you should consider your maintenance schedule and provider when making a purchase decision.
