I'm sorry I don't consider a "curated CSV for California only" to be at all equivalent to 60,000 members across the US of the public who are free to post videos and setup failure cases, and report whatever they like.

> They also don't have professional testers like cruise, waymo, etc do validating releases.

Source? From my understanding they rollout releases to employees first (I assume a subset of those are professional testers). Then to beta testers. There have been a couple of releases that have been halted that lend credence to that.

> They also don't publish FSD data, and their AP numbers are essentially useless for determining actual safety

So is this because you can't see detailed data of their in-progress beta software? Could you show me the beta stats of Waymo/Cruise? Where are they published? Tesla aren't operating any robotaxis - so it's clearly not a finished piece of software is it?

On the AP front, why is the AP data useless? Which data do you need that is missing?
Russia’s Money Is Gone
> Majority of Russians supported (and still support) annexation of Crimea

Nope. Don't trust russian propaganda. Even many of originally brainwashed "vatniks" have not been buying this shit for some years.

> But up until a week ago vast majority didn't care

Those who "care" tend to find "novichok" on their underwear. Terrible choice, no excuses, no nothing but fear of being repressed for a tweet. Me and my family will now pay for this fear with even more fear: of being impoverished, being outcasts, being locked behind the new iron curtain etc on top of even more repression.

I'm not looking for sympathy, nor want to ask for forgiveness for the orders I didn't give. Be safe my friends, even if you consider me an enemy
I have not read this book, but the line you reference seems like fairly standard poetry to me. Is that what it reminds you of? Or something else altogether?
What does a reusable (ie import from another file) `useAutoCounter` look like in Svelte?
sure, I mean the paradigm of using military force, and more generally disregarding international law to achieve geopolitical goals
When I was first learning about UNIX and similar OSes I just assumed that this is how things worked because this is the obvious way of doing it. Why would you fork a process, then try to determine which of the two processes you are, then fix whatever the parent process messed up in your global state, and only then execute what you actually wanted to do? That seems insane (I guess until you realize that the main use case is creating /bin/sh).
Sure it is. That's like saying the four minute mile is not real. It is real. It's just not common. You just haven't had personal experience with it so you don't know.
> regarding auto updates, I disable them basically everywhere because I seem to have buggy experiences too often

With Play Store I agree. With F-Droid, I do not. You can easily install older revisions if you find a problem, which I almost never do with F-droid.
Bear Snores On is another great book for that age, although not as calming still good for bedtime :)
I don’t get comments like these.

Does Putin strike you as an overly emotional guy who gets frustrated easily?

My take is that he is cold and calculating. Not one I’d take lightly.
Correction without Taiwan there is no Nvidia, Apple, or personal computers using the leading edge nodes <=7nm. There would be shortages but there is still Samsung and Intel is catching up.
That's absence of evidence, not evidence of absence. The dogma is that you can't get N. meningitidis invasive infection from food, but this case is no way provides evidence to support that you can't. Also, I oppose the label "disinformation", apparently a bunch of people got confused, including ProMED, no one is/was trying to pull anything.
China being China, and thus economically more savvy then Russia, I guess the will keep Taiwan's industry running under new management. Assuming Taiwan isn't scuttling before the new management arrives. But then I also thought Putin would be smarter than starting a war everybody saw coming miles away and risk forging the west together in a way I haven't seen since the cold war. There seems to be a reason why I'm not earning my living with political or strategic analysis.
CIPS isn't about trusting China with your money, it's just an interchange system. It's not necessary to trust Chinese or Russia banks.
Cutting off SWIFT I believe is a primary way of making it impossible to pay...
Really nothing wrong with the setup. Everything on the network handles it fine except for the pi.

I'm curious what you think is wrong with it.
Can you please throw more info on what you are building? Have you written / tweeted about it anytime?
What are wrapper objects for primitive values?
I feel like if it were actually an order of magnitude less complex, it would be eminently obvious from a blog post about it? Maybe I'm just tired and don't "see it" for whatever reason, or maybe I need to find some better examples.

From the moment I saw a post about immer.js, I was sold because it seemed like an obviously better solution for the vast majority of cases where I would otherwise grab Immutable.js, a library that I wanted to like but inevitably struggled against.

This.. isn't quite as revelatory. I'm not saying it's not all that you claim it is, it's just that from a glance, I don't see how this somewhat different approach addresses the problems I run into often with React in a major way (beyond the claimed performance boost).
The point is that it's not newsworthy. None of this is.
Thank you!
Do you know if its only incorporation in EU countries? I am not quite sure about globally, but since Canadian and US Limiteds are likely out of the question as well that would (have been?) Hong Kong then?

For the banking, is that transactions out of the country or any transaction, so also from money you get from out of Russia? I was more looking through the sanction perspective
> Solid takes these problems and just vanishes them. UI state knows what its dependencies are automatically and only updates when they change – even in a sub-component level!

I haven't looked at Solid but I've used MobX extensively, and this sounds a whole lot like it. It integrates well with React, so you might give it a look if you've got an existing React codebase.
They didn't lie or mislead. You misread their original message. You uncharitably assumed they were a bunch of nasty internet SJWs. You then called them disingenuous when that didn't turn out to be the case.

Sorry if that isn't accurate, I know it sucks when people misrepresent your words.
We've used React with Mobx in commercial apps for 5+ years now. React has been good for us BUT Solid is so much cleaner (and leaner).

Porting most React code to Solid is pretty easy - mostly involves deleting things that are no longer required (useCallback, useRef, etc) and moving prop access into the JSX to enable just those specific attributes to be updated when state changes.

It has come to the point where I really begrudge going back to working in our React code. Unfortunately those apps will still be around for a long time - but we won't be using React for green-fields projects.
There seems to be an oblique critique of people that are suddenly pro-intervention and pro-war that are classified as traditional anti-war/peacenik.

This analysis may be true, but seems to be trending here because of that undercurrent running through discussions of Russia/Ukraine.

I do not think this is some irrational fear stirring within people in the abstract sense. There are very good reasons to see this as far more than just another regional conflict.

Ukraine is a line in the sand against the very idea of modern authoritarianism. What has been occurring for the last 10 years politically is a disturbing trend towards authoritarianism. China is now much more authoritarian under Xi. "Populism" movements with leaders openly admiring Putin.

Putin is the perverse hero of these ambitious strongmen.

Putin's cult of personality among wannabe far right wing movements is a disturbing trend undermining not just some idealistic dream of true liberal democracy, but even the more mundane functional republic we generally have.

Here we have Putin nakedly expressing aggression, as a sort of apex achievement of decades of psy-ops, "fomenting despair", and other KGB manipulations.

What's important here is not to just rebuke Putin's ambitions in the realist/actual political and power sense, in the immediate sense. What is important here is to destroy this god of the dangerous radical far right, embarrass his armies, shame him, show him impotent and powerless before a nascent Ukrainian national identity that should have no fighting chance.
You are not understanding the gravity of the situation. Failures in sourcing fertilizers can create severe food security crisis in the country and will further push farmers who already live on the edge. Farmer suicide is a big issue in India. I would also like to remind you that India is neighbored by two nuclear armed hostile nations who have invaded India in the past.

India doesn't work with Russia because of some world domination goals. It works with Russia to ensure its food security and safety.
Except this isn’t the case at all.

Modern Russia, and Modern China are as tight as ever. Being driven closer by the West.
Which is one of the reasons that made me think—conspiracy theorize—at first that the book was about a critique of capitalism, but then edited to read as a critique of communism.

Then, I thought that both systems can be prone to manifest inequality because of their own inherent flaws, and I realized that we shouldn't be squabbling about which one is "right" (like with the Leviathan of Parsonstown [0]), but rather on what parts can we take from any other politico-economical system to make the best one.

The Ukraine War Is Testing the Myth of Elon Musk
On the other hand, I've owned most Nexus devices and loved stock Android at the time but probably won't be leaving the Samsung ecosystem anytime soon. Until the S6 or so I'd agree it was bloated and unreliable but since then it's been a consistent and reliable experience (with great hardware) and it would take a lot to move back to a Pixel.
I have the same complaint about hooks. Most people seem to ignore that tidbit, but to me it's really frustrating. Plus I recently hit more hook issues when putting a setInterval inside a useEffect. There's no way to do a normal didMount/willUnmount workflow without other hacks (i.e. useRef) just to set up a simple timer. Maddening!

Edit: after writing this I went and read the article. Same scenario I was bitching about lol
Show HN: Declarative Abstraction for Assembling Web Apps (WIP)
If Russia wins in Ukraine, and doesn't stop there, Europe will switch to a war stance. In that case people won't have much choice. You either volunteer, are drafted or are working in an industry that makes your continued civil job more valuable than you being in the armed forces.
There's no "we" because exactly your attitude lmao

You point out some red herring, claim it's the base case, and thus it proves the entire viewpoint that it's some "decaying corrupt corpse"

Compared to what, exactly?
It's actually quite interesting that US has managed to convert quite a few of its rivals to allies. Japan, Vietnam, Mexico, Germany and its allies, many Arab countries come to mind.

I'd argue that even China and Russia, while not allies - are also not enemies.
The article makes clear the turbines are running on "auto mode", out of communication with the manufacturer, and that owners are making arrangements to communicate with their turbines by other means than satellite links.

So, it did not "knock out" the turbines, it only knocked out communication with them. That reasonably upsets Enercon, and maybe Enercon's customers, but appears not to reduce the power output from the turbines, so probably shouldn't worry the rest of us much, if they can re-establish contact without relying on the satellite link, which they should do anyway, and if it does not mean that somebody else can take over control of the turbines.

Knowing how equipment is built these days, it would be not at all surprising if in fact it were easy to crack into these turbines' control channels and make them destroy themselves. That doesn't seem to be what has happened here, yet. But sometimes, forcing somebody to go to a backup control method is a first step in breaking in, if the backup method is more easily cracked into.
Can you buy options, derivatives, futures?
Can you invest in startups?
Can you easily send money anywhere in the world in seconds?

99% of the world can't, either because of where they live, or the government deciding they're not allowed to because they're not rich enough to join the elites.

This is the world Ethereum unlocks - a global financial system that allows anyone to participate regardless of where they were born or their background.

If you value freedom you'll see it's a far superior financial system than the one we have today.

It's not technically ready yet, but the path is clear and it will be there sooner than you think.
This is another area where Solid has an advantage over React. With React you could use Hyperscript functions so the above JSX would be

React.createElement('div', null, `The count is: {this.state.count}`).

With Solid you get the choice, you could use JSX, Hyperscript functions or template literals like in your example. Solid does recommend using JSX because there are some tradeoffs to using template literals without compilation, but it still maintains almost all of its qualities AFAIK and in the big framework benchmark Solid with template literals is the fastest template literals implementation.

With Solid you don't even have to use any templating languages, you can take care of rendering yourself using the tools that the framework gives you. Solid at its core is more of a capable state management library similar to MobX but designed to be used as the only reactivity engine unlike MobX which is usually used on top of React.
I think Namecheap discriminates based on the address, so if you live in the UK you can update it. Not easier for the rest of us.
Battery Eliminator Store – Never Buy or Replace a Battery Again
> I'm trying to understand the scale of Putin's decision

Drastic. Catastrophic. Suicidal. World-changing.

The country (Russia) in its current form has just ceased to exist. The entire parasitic elite class just got cut off from everything they stole during all these years. The entire human potential of Russia just got nullified for at lest 20 years. The push towards green energy (and I hope nuclear fusion) just got accelerated. NATO and EU memberships just became essential for any European country. The prospects of nuclear disarmamant are nullified.

The war isn't exactly a blitzkrieg now, but it still has a good chance to succeed -- but that's not what matters. It's the consequences that matter. They will affect the course of human history.

I think the west (Europe and USA) will be perfectly fine. It's we Russians who are fucked for the rest of our lives.
This highlights one of my growing ethical dillemas.

I am a US citizen, and sometimes I am really ashamed of my country. We have done some really bad stuff. We’ve done a whole lot of shady stuff that is complicated to pass simple judgement on. But the US has done good stuff as well. They loan money, send aid, rebuild, provide. Some times the motives are duplicitous in these acts of good. But the bottom line is, when I travel abroad I feel like I can confidently say “we’re like a two year old, sometimes we do sweet/good things, and other times we’re naughty.”

When it comes to USSR/Russia, I am not aware of the good acts. It’s not just that thy do bad things, it’s that I never hear of any of the good things they do in the world at large.

And so I’m honestly curious, is Russia as a foreign actor just that much more self interested? Or do we not hear about it in the West, because it doesn’t pay to report on it.
> The mess created by US/EU/Russia/Ukraine is their problem and cannot be allowed to affect the Indian Economy

Despicably, blatantly, selfish. US/EU have been burning money trying to help millions of people in severe trouble of being destroyed by weapons. You think Indians should care more about their own money. History won't be kind.
His argument also fails with the Ukraine situation. The world may be a better place today because the USSR disbanded, but Ukraine would not be being invaded by Russia today if the USSR never disbanded.

What is the purpose of isolating the abuse victim from the rest of the world?

Actions like these benefit Putin more than to harm him. If the Russian people are isolated from the rest of the world they'll be less likely do to anything about their oppressive regime.

- You've just finished reading Linchpin and come to the conclusion that you're not doing creative work because you don't have the time.

- But you can do things fast when you're already dripping in experience. (Explore/Exploit problem)

- So, you spend more time gathering experience and use some approaches from The Procrastination Equation.

- Then after all of that you realize thinking outside of the box is hard so you induce creativity using ThinkerToys.

Ask HN: What does your HN look like?
We all know how this community loves software that can be customized and modded.

So, I'm curious what your Hacker News page looks like? Share a screenshot and explain the details of your scripts/styles/changes.

I'll start. My HN: https://i.imgur.com/z9D2XPr.png

I use Stylebot to implement custom CSS rules. I tried many dark HN extensions and most of them have issues with threading or style details I didn't like, so I just wrote my own CSS.

Then I use Tampermonkey to run a simple JS function which adds tags based on how many comments each article has. And I also tag articles as "Fresh" if they have been posted within the last hour.

I also plan to add sorting by comment count. The thing I loved most about HN is the discussions that happen within the comments.

The Pepsi armada was the result of one of the trades with the Soviet Union. Since the Soviets didn't have internationally valid currency, they paid Pepsi with 20 ships... Pepsi did not operate them, they sold them for scrap.
Interestingly, the previous trade had Pepsi selling Stolichnaya vodka in the US...
It is an overly strict interpretation of that rule to assume it prohibits any randomized algorithm.

1) Roll dice to get random number N
2) Get the Nth permutation of the input sequence (for some ordering of permutations)
3) Permute input sequence
4) If sorted: done, else goto step 1
> Do you know if its only incorporation in EU countries?

Anywhere abroad. It is illegal (and has been illegal since 2014 or so, can't remember) for a Russian resident to have a controlling stake in a company not incorporated in Russia.

> is that transactions out of the country or any transaction

It's about transfers of funds from Russia to foreign bank (and "bank-like") accounts. Accepting money from abroad is still legal -- which is confirmed by the fact that they yesterday imposed a requirement of mandatory conversion of 80% of any foreign-currency revenue to rubles.
There are marvelous cleaning products for that, you should inform yourself.

2% market share on the desktop market, or people giving big bucks to Apple instead of supporting Linux laptop OEMs, don't need rebutals, they are well known facts.

>But Starlink isn’t an instant fix, and Musk can’t exactly wave a wand at Ukraine’s internet disruptions. “It’s nice for him to offer, but that doesn’t mean it will actually have a meaningful impact right away,” Brian Weeden, a space-policy expert at the Secure World Foundation, a nonprofit group that promotes peaceful and responsible uses of space, told me. The entire sequence—the plea, the response, the actual effect—reveals some of the limits of Musk’s influence: His outsized reputation doesn't always match what he can actually control.

>These terminals must be within several hundred miles of ground stations that communicate with Starlink satellites before the satellites beam signals down to those dishes. There are no such stations inside Ukraine, but there are enough in neighboring countries to “provide service to the whole of Ukraine without issues,” Mike Puchol, the chief technology officer at an internet start-up who also runs a tracker of Starlink coverage, told me.

>Even if Starlink worked perfectly, the use of satellite technology can be risky in wartime, John Scott-Railton, a senior researcher at the University of Toronto’s Citizen Lab, told me. Transmissions between ground receivers and satellites can become beacons for air strikes. “None of this is new,” Scott-Railton said. “The only new thing is Starlink, which has never really been tested in a context of battle.”
This is not whataboutism and it is so tired. It's about the fact that this isn't about the human suffering caused by Russia, it's a conflict between major power - case in point, all of the previous instances of similar behaviour from multiple countries that went unpunished.

When evidence fly in the face of a narrative, whataboutism isn't a defense. Whataboutism would be if they said it's fine for Putin to commit atrocities in Ukraine because the US commits atrocities in various countries. That's not what was pointed out. It was pointed out that the narrative doesn't follow past precedent.
This is not whataboutism. I am in favor of strong sanctions again Russia, but saying that "Russian companies paid for death and destruction in Ukraine. I feel no empathy. This country should pay for every war crime they committed. There are no innocence in war. Silent complacency what brought it on." is blatantly false, and it becomes apparent when you reverse the narrative. Are all American companies responsible for/complacent with US war crimes?

Not all Russian companies wanted the war, not all companies are complacent, and they only financed it by contributing to the GDP of the country.

Is it fair to sanction them? No. Should we do it if it helps destabilizing Putin? Yes, absolutely, even more than we are doing now.
How to Develop a Text Editor for the Web
Here's an analogy, most people here are allergic to Trump. It would be the same to have blocked US people because Trump got elected.
This is a good and sad point. I was on the wiki page for derivatives and found it was locked due to vandalism. On one hand, we don’t want pages locked because that defeats the point. On the other, how do we stop every troll high schooler who just learned derivatives and messes up the wiki page for lulz? We either need active watchers (surprisingly and fortunately pretty easy, wiki editors are a passionate and eagle-eyed group, but I wonder how long and how much of this is just the initial hard core fans from the early days) or to have some deterrent to vandalism in the first place. For some, maybe this is IP address logging (although as someone else noted in the thread, at what point does this sink anonymity?). For others, maybe creating an account. In practice, neither of these work 100% of the time. I have seen vandals from both IP accounts and registered accounts in about equal frequency.
So instead of saying “whataboutism” you can tell us why it’s okay to be hypocritical, or why the situation is sufficiently different.

Making statements that are hypocritical cheapens discourse, and we can and should have more substantive conversations here.
