Eh, nothing unstandardized about POSIX shell scripts, as opposed to a bunch of ever-changing YAML files with questionable semantics.

> companies would have to sell their parts for little enough that you could buy all the parts for a whole new machine

Something like that could be a law. We could allow them a little markup to cover distribution cost, but one could argue it could be that simple.
> They probably know that paying someone hundreds of dollars an hour is the surest way to get a good answer but lack either the ability or the will to pay it.

And getting a shit answer on an anonymous forum that is not remotely tailored to personal circumstances is an acceptable substitute ?

Especially as the answer will no doubt come from some John Doe who isn't even qualified in the topic at hand but is just regurgitating some heresy they read on the internet or heard from "a friend".

I mean, nobody here has said "I can't comment until I've seen your contract with your employer, can you email it to me ?" .

There are some things that require the services of a professional and tailoring to personal circumstances.

Sure you can go watch videos for free on YouTube that show you how to do open heart surgery, and you can probably buy medical scalpels cheaply on eBay.

But frankly I'd rather pay up and get an experienced surgeon to do it for me.

I can definitely see the appeal of a simplified .NET lacking a lot of the baggage it has from 21 years. .NET core was an attempt at stripping a lot of stuff out but over time they've had to add stuff back because it turns out telling developers they have to rewrite all their code (or give up on doing things at all) is a bad idea.

Node benefits from being a newer ecosystem (~2009) that started out with simpler goals, so it accumulated cruft more slowly. Ecosystems like node also deploy breaking changes more often - .NET 1.0 software can still be run on a modern Windows machine using the latest regular framework, though as of 5.0 they finally decided to kill existing .NET code (the old framework still works, 5.0 and later just use a separate one).

I'm personally still writing and maintaining .NET 4.x code and some of it is working stuff I wrote in ~2005 and it has been serving me well that whole time. I have extensive experience with C++, JS, Python etc and C# is still my first choice when it comes time to solve problems (Python is a somewhat distant but still respectable 2nd place - the REPL is great.)

From time to time I've been able to solve difficult problems with built-in .NET tooling - I wrote a custom compiler for a DSL from scratch entirely using built-in 4.x features and it can do hot reloading, generate debug information, allow me to set breakpoints in visual studio, etc. I simply can't get this anywhere else.
Lost faith in this whole idea of EU trying to force companies to do better after the cookie law.

Now every single website I have to dismiss a pop up before I visit. Yet once dismissed the site functions completely fine so really the law should have just made whatever happens when I click accept illegal because you clearly don’t need it for any of these services to function.

But no, now I have to dismiss a pop up every time instead.
What this could be saying is that it’s very inefficient to buy the parts in units. If you were to buy a thousand of these parts, as a manufacturer might, I doubt they’d each cost £100.

Yeah motors are expensive, but I have saved so many large appliances needing a minor component from the trash with a little basic troubleshooting and a site like appliancepartspros. So often, it's a sensor, a pawl, heating element, belt, or roller that's 1% of the machine's price. This is in reach of anyone with a few hand tools and the internet.

A repair company (always 3rd party now) will charge %50 of the machine's price for a trip charge, marked up parts, and labor.
> EU and US voters will never accept their governments cancelling sanctions

They will when they see their gas and food bills. Everyone is hawk in social networks and enjoys its moral justice, but for many workers in Europe these sanctions mean closing their businesses and increasing paychecks. Of course everyone can say that Ukraine has right to join NATO, but how much are you ready to pay for this right?

For most of people these events are only important when they are all over [social] media. Most of the people who call for immediate beginning of WW3 will forget about it when media will start the Next Big Story(China? US elections?).

How many of enraged US citizens can show Ukraine on the map? Who was in the context of Russo-Ukrainian relationships month ago? When the wartime propaganda is over, people will find a way to collaborate.

About 10 years ago, I was involved in prepping content for foreign studios to have their content available to US streaming markets. Finding translators was an issue. Hiring professional translators with PhDs sounded like a good idea, but a lot of their translations were "technically" correct yet made for not interesting. Out of desperation and making use of a connection we had to a local university, our contact reached out to a professor friend that introduced us to a couple of students that were ESL and were from the country that produced the content. While these translations might not have been as true as the PhDs, they were reworking them to be more intune with an American audience.

The content creators approved this work, and were okay with it. The college students were able to do this as part time finishing a couple of episodes a week. The pay was better than whatever part time job normally available for a student, but less than what a professional would do. Plus, they were able to keep up with some of the shows they would watch if they were back home.

The typical hiring pains occurred as some students were better than others, and some were just not good fits.
So this would impact big players less, leaving startups in a more difficult position. That's regressive.
Writing Help will discourage you from changing the UI much, because you'll need to update the documentation. That's probably a good thing, but if you had some UI changes coming up, you might want to do those first.

Also, even if people don't read Help much (and it makes sense that they've lost the skill because there's so often no Help now), it's a text you can refer to elsewhere.

Anything that justifies it. You still see people claim that losing the headphone jack on the iPhone was "worth it" so it could be waterproof without port covers despite the fact phones with both already existed before it. So expect a lot of claims about how people NEED their laptop to be 1 cm thick, that by not having a removable battery it can have more battery, etc.
It does stand to reason that not driving to work would be more efficient than any form of transport, even a bicycle.
> NATO only around 54%

And opposition to NATO was only 28%. Twice as many people want to join NATO as those who oppose joining.

That's a huge majority and the way you are trying to undersell it means you are either being intentionally misleading or didn't understand how the poll worked.
Here’s the difference: bad publications happen but when they’re discovered that leads to retractions and other professional consequences. For example, Andrew Wakefield did get a bad paper into The Lancet but it was retracted and he’s now a former doctor.
Great advice! BTW, your startup https://creatorml.com/ is very cool, what a creative idea.
the previous poster makes a very important point - Uber re-externalized the costs for fleet maintenance and many other costs and push them outside their balance sheet.
A shortage occurs when price is prevented from rising (price gouging laws, for example), where buyers would spend more if they could, but are stopped from doing so. While it is technically possible that the "shit" pay is a result of a price ceiling, that seems highly unlikely. If you have millions to spend on a translator I'm sure nobody is going try and stop you from spending it. What is much more likely is that the demand just isn't there. Someone thinking something would be nice to have does not mean that they are truly in the market.
Maybe people also need to be able to discover things and people worth reading.

Maybe there are systems that afford that.

Maybe there are systems that are more or less resistant to astroturf, spam, and trolling.

Maybe things like language, speech norms, even laws have evolved organically to allow more productive conversations.

Seems worth thinking about, experimenting, implementing.
While I'm not defending the fact that many companies do rip people off in their spare parts prices,

> Are you telling me that all that steel and plastic and motors and controllers and labor and profit and shipping and everything is actually 75% of the cost, and 25% of the entire value of my dishwasher is tied up in the value of that one part, the one that happened to need replacement?

You're forgetting that the spare part also needs similar logistics, shipping, support, etc. around it, so you would expect ordering one of every part separately to cost far more than ordering a single machine even before they put any further markup on it.
>Are you telling me that all that steel and plastic and motors and controllers and labor and profit and shipping and everything is actually 75% of the cost, and 25% of the entire value of my dishwasher is tied up in the value of that one part, the one that happened to need replacement?

Obviously not, but that's how economies of scale, combined with planned obsolescence and rent seeking works.

That's how Apple who makes disposable earphones that last two years is worth trillions and Sennheiser who makes headphones lasting 20+ years is going bust.

It's not profitable making fair priced products that last forever or are cheap and easy to repair.

I am quite sure the discourse on "rent seeking activities" come with a negative connotation in the wealth of nations. (forgive me if I am wrong, it is some years ago I read it)
In the Islamic world it is against the law to pay or demand interest on money lent. The idea is more universal and less witchcraft.
If you bought a dishwasher one part at a time, how much more is it reasonable to expect for it to cost?

I think a $500 dishwasher costing $2500 if ordered one part at a time is reasonable. Your car is likely well over $100K if you ordered it one part at a time.

If you want to insist that the sum of the parts costs no more than the MSRP of the dishwasher, you won’t find the parts falling to 1/5 their current cost, but rather the dishwasher now listing for $2500 (and likely having frequent deep-discount sales).
In practice it often is -- even in the case of many bad Android phones.

It's just that the lifecycle they work to is the two year phone contract replacement lifecycle, not the longer one you might imagine.

It's Darwinian: as long as the phone is not abandonware by the time the user's contract runs out, it doesn't matter.

And the only Darwinian pressure to resolve this would be longer plan terms.
I have a contrarian view on this. I really don’t think governments should be making technical decisions for the product design unless it directly impacts health issues. If fixed batteries makes product smaller or better then it’s choice of creator, maker and hacker. Consumer should be voting with their wallets and they should have a choice. This kind of constant interference from EU burocrates without understanding technical details is what led to completely pointless “accept cookie” disaster all over the Internet that has already cost billions of dollars collectively while not benefiting anyone.
That’s true, I guess I think bad explanations of good rules are insidious: they alienate kids and create an us-vs-them mentality. If parents stay up late but don’t allow their kids to stay up late, it seems like parents are entitled and even a five year old can sense entitlement.

Here’s the thing, though: it’s true that going to bed early is a good rule, and it’s also true that parents feel entitled; that their rules apply to their kids but not them. That’s one reason kids hate their parents - they often deserve it!

Show HN: A Self-Hosted back end solution in Node.js
Hello everyone! I want to introduce you to the project I've been working on for some time!

It's called Conduit and it's a new platform to build your next application on. I've been working with similar solutions since 2014, beginning with Parse (even after it was made open-source), moving to firebase and then mostly sticking to custom backends. On 2017 I founded a Software Development agency and quickly realised that if we were to improve quality and increase speeds we need a platform to help us do that.

Parse was kind of outdated for us at that point, and Firebase hasn't (even after so many years) caught up to the flexibility the former provided. You can do MVPs yes, but you end up moving logic to the front-end or use the serverless functions that have many limitations and slow cold-start times. So for me and my dev team, it wasn't a solution for anything further than authentication management and push notifications.

So, back in 2020 I begun working on Conduit, with 3 targets: Provide common functionality out of the box, do not limit devs and lastly it should work in the same philosophy a custom backend would. This meant effectively no runtime overheads (or at the very least only minor ones), a flexible API, micro-service based architecture with each service housing a particular set of features (ex. Authentication, Database, Email etc) and of course it uses gRPC for service-to-service communications so devs can create new modules from whatever language and/or framework they want!

Fast-forward in 2022, we've already used in 5 production projects for clients. Our front-end teams love it, our backend teams have more free time than ever to work in more complex problems, and bugs in production have been reduced drastically. It even withstood a user surge in one project were we had more than 10.000 req/min (we spun up more instances to account for the load).

I'd love to answer any and all questions you have about it! And I hope you like it enough to give us a star in GitHub :D

I'm not so sure. If you look at the map, if you want to connect the Krim by land you need more than what was held by the Donbas. That nice wide river coming down from Kiew would make a great border though. And you need something to 'give' in negotiations so you have to take more. Plus Kiew is on that river which would not be great. Would you want Ukraine's capital to basically sit right on your border?

Also I bet you Putin wants these high yield parts, controlling not only Europe's oil and gas supply but also lots of their food supply can only be good for Putin. Look at how much Germany was trying not piss him off even while cruise missiles were destroying Ukraine:

http://static.producer.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Ukrain...

So a little more on the coast too (Odessa). If he does leave some of Ukraine in the hands of Ukrainians to end the war and go back to selling Europe gas and oil then a land locked Ukraine would make much less of a threat later too.

And while we are at it why not try for the whole thing? There's a good plan B there. And if you're gonna threaten WWIII, do it for as much gain as you can.
You should also avoid goods made in Indonesia and Turkey.
Anecdote: we have a Hong Kong location (hkcolo, TKO) and suddenly, in the last 2-3 weeks we are seeing email notifications about positive tests and exposures and contact alerts at the datacenter.

This is new. They were not having these positive test results nor having these exposures at any time prior.

From the outside (thank god) it appears that c19 is running through HK much faster than at any point prior …

Well, if you only watched 1.5 seasons and you have this strong an opinion about it, you deserve the downvotes.

Obviously I can only guess how often you get a new phone, but I'd expect you get a new one every two, maybe three years?

Other data point: I threw away three phones in the same time frame. Each and every single of them had to eventually get a new battery. The first just became too slow to use (Galaxy S2), the second was at some point physically deformed beyond repairability (Xperia Z1) and for the last one (HTC 10) it was the worst: No repair shop in our city wanted to repair it OR quoted insane prices (100 or 150 Euros I think) and I could not find a reputable seller offering replacement batteries. After two weeks of having the battery die on me on nearly every important occasion I gave up and got my current phone.

I hear the same from a lot of friends. While most are interested in each others new phones from a nerdy perspective, I can only think of one friends still acting as if having the newest generation was a necessity or even a status symbol.

So, long story short: My anecdata tells me that having easily replaceable batteries is a huge boon to using the phone for a longer time.
This seems to be split pretty clearly down a "promotion criteria" line.

At small companies, where basically everything is arbitrary, sample sizes are small and there's not enough data to be data driven, titles are perceived as mostly meaningless.

At large companies that do a good job of standardizing how promotion works and what is required to get it, titles are not perceived to be meaningless.
The original source doesn't seem to say "not replaceable", but describes batteries that are glued or fixed in place.

So making a watertight phone (or other device) with the battery inside the seal seems to still be allowed by the current proposal, so long as the seal is the only thing that complicates replacing the battery. Bug or feature? You be the judge.
So we must trust that money printing is better, yet I have not seen any evidence of such a system being any better for average people than a gold-based system.

Do you mind explaining with an example what could potentially happen ? I don't see it. This is all I see :

1. Group A has tons of gold because it's the ultimate (physical) store of value. Group B has nothing.

2. Group B gets nano bits of gold in exchange for goods/labor.

3. Group A realizes the limits of their wealth.

4. Group A tries to convince group B of exchanging back their nano bits of gold for nano bits of paper + x%. They can also exchange their land and other assets for micro bits of paper + y%.

5. The system falls, everybody and nobody get blamed with no-one taking financial responsibility.

6. Group B ends up with tons of paper, zero assets and zero gold.

...

This has already happened several times and even though it's quite unlike in a modern economy, it looks like the world's historical evidence does not support the theory that this is any better for average people holding average nano bits of gold.
