Ask HN: What's the most popular cloud drive storage for non-technical folks?
I'm wondering if its still Google Drive. My audience is mainly smaller enterprises and non-tech people who would be interested in no-code solutions.
I refuse to pay USD$35 (€32) a month for that (the cost of two accounts). That’s outrageous.
https://TakingNames.io obviously. Disclaimer: I run it.
What does this mean in terms of short-term, real-world effect in the US?
The Brit I mentioned elsewhere seemed to think it was the drying that arrested the chemical processes in the tea.

He was also adamant about storing it in well sealed containers out of direct sunlight. I ended up throwing away a couple of containers because of this (although I've kept a couple that are just too beautiful to part with - I store my daily drinker in there since it doesn't need to keep as long). Also explains why my dealer uses mylar vacuum packs for anything over an ounce. No oxygen, no light.
What was the apps domain fiasco? I have a .app domain. How worried should I be
There is still a lot of stuff like this, but it's harder than ever to find, and certainly not anywhere near as much as it used to be. It's a real shame.
It's pretty straightforward, knowing when to use the stack vs heap can improve your performance. Having both paradigms available in the language means you can start out relying on the GC for everything. Later when you're ready, you can look to make more intelligent use of the stack.
Great to see this!

Generics will drastically improve datastructure libraries.

That said, for people worrying about overcomplication, fortunately methods can't have type parameters. That means ergonomic monads are not possible to implement, and we'll most probably not see the whole functional story play out in Go.
I agree, very easy to use. Prices are pretty good, but not the cheapest. But the most important question is: What happens when they ban your account? You will lose your domains.

Congrats to the Google engineers who made this happen. But I transferred my domains out a few months ago because I will never win against the Google AI.
After the 80s expired, in Germany, long-form audio dramas [1] transitioned from being produced to vinyl to cassette (the transition to CDs happened amazingly late in the 2000s, and for quite some time both cassette and CD were typically released at the same time). Basically, all my audio dramas are cassette or vinyl.

What I was running up to say: whereas the quality of CD masterings typically was consistent and befitting the medium, many of my audio drama cassettes have quite varying physical qualities. It esp. gets noticable with long-running series such as the "three ???" series; over 100s of cassettes, you can make out the slumps and peaks.

My suspicion here is that black tea, especially when prepared in the British style, has more caffeine per cup because it's brewed to be much stronger than green teas typically are. So both can be true, black tea typically has more caffeine per cup, but black tea leaves have less caffeine than green tea leaves when compared by weight or volume.
The hooray the Senate is saving our daylight I'm glad somebody is. Take care so much what would we ever do if they didn't save this daylight for us. Maybe they can take some and put it in a lock box for when we need it most.
I used to think this way with locking my car. Made it about three years keeping my car keys in my car until one day someone stole my car. Then a bunch of time was wasted and I realized that maybe locking my car and keeping the key on my person was a better outcome.
“Due process” is an individual US constitutional right to have access to our established legal procedures and rules prior to any deprivation of “life, liberty, or property”.

I don’t see a due process violation in your link — just an example of how abdicating sovereign judicial authority can go wrong, as is the case with diplomatic immunity.
I'm answering your question by suggesting that Obama could have gotten much more done if he had not been so extremely partisan from day 1. When it became clear he was not going to negotiate any changes to the monumental Obamacare law and pass it through on a partisan vote, the only natural response for Republicans seeking to effect their own policy agenda was to block as much as possible. In effect Obama, rather than choosing a 90/10 or 80/20 ratio of democrat to republican polciies to be passed, said there was no point in allowing any republican policies through. And so the only natural response was for Republicans, as the minority, to respond in kind until the next election.

A more mathematical explanation would be that if every law was 80% Democrat policy and you were able to pass 100 policies a term, you could get 80 of your policies through in a single term. You might think getting 100% of every policy in a bill would be better but that might mean you only get to pass 50 policies a term because of increased partisan tensions. Even at 100% that's only 50 Democrat policies instead of 80.

By allowing some compromise you can achieve more.
Part of the incel problem in general is that we generally don't teach boys how to socialize because society generally doesn't respond to their emotional state except when they react violently.
It's a shortcut for content marketing. I would expect a large number of articles over the next few months about launching projects on DO infra. Not a terrible way to get more eyeballs on your product, but if they push things too hard, eventually the site could lose some of it's appeal as a "neutral" source.

Historically, CSS-Tricks has raked in a TON of money from affiliate sales to entry level hosting providers (MediaTemple sticks out in my mind). Imagine all of those affiliate sales now going to Digital Ocean instead. There's potential for a massive ROI if DO can responsibly manage the site and funnel over the next decade.
We understand, alright. My hope, though I'm not optimistic, is that this serves as a shot across the bow and we start the long and hard process of getting our financial house in order.

But yes, you are correct. If we don't get off this MMT crazy train before the dollar loses its unique status in the world economy, we're f**d
I use "recorded on the fly" macros all the time. But other than that, I use vim to avoid using an IDE as much as possible. I keep in the terminal, have all my tools available, don't have to click around or wait for load times, etc. Vim opens instantly and I can navigate to where I need to go instantly.

For instance, just yesterday, I had a test failed that was comparing two (big) classes of objects, and the test suite spits them out as single long lines as a diff.

But looking at long lines are super hard to read, so I can just do something once (ie: take a vertical chunk of text between zero and the next comma, and append it to end of file) then run that macro 70 times, and suddenly that long line I had to scroll through is all divvied up and I can easily spot where the issue is.

All of this is a bit simpler (believe me!) Compared to trying to remember where a certain menu item or action is. I'd probably have to pull up excel if I didn't have vim.

But you've heard this all before
I could see payroll providers offering it as an option, similar to sending money to retirement plans, post-tax insurance, charitable contributions, etc. I have seen payroll plans that purchase goods either up front or on layaway.

Nothing. The House has yet to act, and we don't know if Biden would sign it.
It means software updates for all the things!
I like it showing me when a new device connects to the network; time based usage limits. I'm assuming if I put it in bridge mode and have my own router I'm going to lose that. How is shaw going to know who/what is connecting if my router assigns and manages DHCP?
I like Vim's editing model. Vim itself is a truly awesome piece of software. BUT - it doesn't have IDE style features, which I have come to rely on to do my job effectively, built in.

Luckily for me, Vim's editing model exists in the IDEs I use via Vim 'emulation' plugins. In Jetbrains IDEs and in VSCode, the emulation is quite good. In the incredibly rare instance where I need a macro or some similar 'power user' Vim feature, I just pop that file open in Vim.

For me this approach strikes the best balance. I get to use the powerful modal editing that I've come to enjoy, while also getting to take advantage of the many powerful features of IDEs.

I just answered above.
Bhutan government has done some brutal things to Nepalis in the 90's. Catholic church was much worse when it had actual power. State propaganda can be overwhelming to weak minds but a little history lesson can cure it.

To quote Ryosuke Niwa, one of the main developers in WebKit [1]:

Query your non-hn friends about Google. I swear there are people who just ctrl-f for Google on hn and post the same "when's it going to be cancelled?"

I would wager that almost all of these posters just happen to have philosophical/political problems with Google too.
Hrm, interesting idea. Maybe not a speed limiter, but a force multiplication factor, say 1.25x the pedal force on day 1, 1.5x after a week/10 rides, and 2x after 2 weeks/20 rides. Or even better, gamify it and upgrades would be released after getting a sufficiently good score on various tests. Working up to thinks like threshold braking (shifting your weight behind the seat and using enough front brake to lift or nearly lift the rear wheel), ability to hold your line for 50 feet within 6", proficiency in counter steering (you have to turn left to be able to turn right) as measured by response time and turning g's, unweighting wheels (like a bunny hop or even close). Part of the problem is bikes are a secondary consideration for most roads. So you end up dealing with sewer grates, debris, parked (or double parked) cars, gravel, street car/subway/trolley rails that eat tires, disappearing bike lanes that turn into right turn only lanes, etc. So what would be normally pretty exotic bike handling skills (bunny hops and threshold braking) end up being survival skills I use nearly daily.

Unless of course this changes, there are designs in I think Norway and/or Denmark that treat bicyclist as first class citizens.
I would love someone to propose a bill that requires the elimination of hyperbolic virtue signaling from all future bills, perhaps as an additional step in whatever pipeline is used to produce bills.

Just need a hyperbolic virtue signaling name for it!
Google cloud is at about 20 billion in revenue per year and growing 45% YOY [0] and you think they might just shutter it based on a HN comment?

He's probably not going to see this quickly; the thing to do here is to mail hn@ycombinator.com.
When did virtue signaling become a bad thing? If the goal of the act is to protect people's access to sunshine, why not say as much -- at least the act has a human readable name.
I'm skeptical that accounts with megaproviders can effectively be isolated. If one account gets banned, and Google determines that another account is owned by the same person, they may well ban the other account too.

The solution is to register your domain (at least) with a provider that doesn't have so much insight into their users.

Again, this applies not only to Google, but also to Amazon and others. It's really a problem with centralized reputation.

Are you saying that there's a threat to our children from lack of adequate daylight? And I am just finding out about it now??
I love this. I'd even go as far as to support permanent double daylight saving time. Let's get those daylight hours in the evening where they can do some good!
I use Amazon Drive. It comes with amazon prime. It's great especially for storing photos - as it supports dumping original raw files as well. The downside is that they stopped supporting Dev APIs.

What is your particular use case?
Indeed. Both the Tibetans and the people of Xinjiang deserve much better than what they currently have.

It's not a feature, and it's not a good idea to refer to people with @nicks, because Twitter's @name convention is much stronger and the two don't overlap perfectly (I am not, for instance, @tptacek on Twitter). I use 'nick to refer to people here, in keeping with our lispy ethos, but really anything other than @nick is fine.
On the other hand, does OnlyFans have any future beyond adult content? Even if they announce their pivot tomorrow, I can't imagine anyone using it given the history associated with that brand, but rebranding also means essentially starting from scratch in a market with existing competition (Patreon, LiberaPay, etc) that already have a critical mass of creators.
During my time at Columbia, I would generally enter the gates at 116th and walk to the Engineering corner via college walk. Occasionally, if there was an anti-israel protest going on, the simple fact that I wear a kippa (skullcap, i.e. obviously jewish) would make me a target for harassment by those "protesting". I ignored it and moved on, there was no point of engaging with them. though I can't say it didn't bother or stick with me during the day making those days less or non productive.

Do I understand why they are protesting Israel? yes. do I disagree with them yes? Do I think they have a right to protest, yes. However, all schools should have codes of conduct that relate to how one deals with their peers. If one can't deal with their peers in a respectful manner they don't deserve the right to be at the school. If the only way to protest is by shouting a speaker you dislike down, you are treating the speaker and the students who came to hear him speak with disrespect. There's no reason on/adjacent to a college campus one can't protest peacefully. A silent protest with signs that everyone has to see as they enter the building would get their point across while treating their fellow students in the manner that they demand to be treated as well.

The problem becomes when you "excuse" those who you feel are weaker for acting in a way while only criticizing those who you view as stronger/powerful for acting that way. Why? because the strong/powerful are the strong and powerful, if you excuse it for the weak, they'll just do it as well and with more impact. One has to not accept it anywhere and therefore not give the "powerful" any room to behave this way against the "weak". It's the main reason I dislike the concept of "punching up" vs "punching down". if you excuse "punching up", those above will end up "punching down" much harder.

this is a problem on both the left and right in the US (a pox on all their houses). The problem for most of us is that do a terrible time calling out those who are closer to what we consider our ideological allies than calling out those who are further from our ideological circles.
UniverSQL – Run SQL Queries on CSV and Excel Files Locally in the Browser
I wonder if they're talking about the blurred lines between taste and smell. Most of what we 'taste' is happening in our nose.

Turns out the French and Italians with all of their fancy wine glasses for different kinds of wine are not insane. Glass shape effects the timing of scent versus taste, and so lighter wines have a narrower glass to shorten the time. The heavier the red the wider the glass.
Sum types and pattern matching would be great, and I think they would be much more useful than generics. Unfortunately, Go lacking generics has become a legitimate meme. An article evangelizing .NET recently popped up here and annoyingly used Go’s slowness to get generics as a legitimate point.

I don’t think generics will greatly damage what Go has going for it, but I hope it also doesn’t block the way for better error handling, sum types, and other things that could potentially improve code robustness.
Back in the day it was a true community of creatives and creative professionals. There was a lot of effort put into fostering a positive community, unlike what you saw on many sites at the time. Video quality was always much more of a priority than elsewhere, but basically everyone else has caught up now.
A barrier, of any kind, makes no difference here.

Barriers only influence the order in which events become visible if and when they DO become visible.

Barriers say nothing about whether or not events actually do become visible; and it may be that they never do (if the necessary magic is not performed, etc).

You mention an atomic increment. I don't see atomic increments this in the C11 code, but I'm not up to speed with that version of the specification.

(Note that an atomic increment will solve the write-side problem, but not the read-side problem. The reader must still use a read barrier; but if there's an implicit full barrier, then that's being done.)
Just more things to tie to Google and thus risk losing when Google flippantly locks or closes your account.
You dirty language prescriptivist! If English speakers and writers use it, it's correct.

I've always wanted a sort of "hybrid" line numbering scheme. Show me the relative numbers in one column, and the absolute line numbers in another column. You can set up vim so that the absolute number appears on the line your cursor is on (and the other lines display relative nums) but this isn't quite enough.

I want both, dammit!

Your eyes dilate more to see dark mode than light mode. This causes a softer image requiring you to work harder to see it clearly.

Ideally you want there to be a balance between the brightness of the room and the brightness of the display.
I think people are going to go off the rails with functions that abstract over for loops. I see it all the time in Javascript code, where people iterate over an Array multiple times because that's what the API makes easy.

For example, say you want to separate a slice into two slices, one that contains matches and one that contains everything else. Right now, you'd just write:

var matches, mismatches []whatever
for _, x := range xs {
if x == condition {
matches = append(matches, x)
} else {
mismatches = append(mismatches, x)
}
}

But soon, people will be golfing that down to:

matches := slices.Search(xs, func(x whatever) bool { return x == condition })
mismatches := slices.Search(xs, func(x whatever) bool { return x != condition })

This is twice as slow, but it's less lines so I have a feeling that people will have an uncontrollable desire to use it as often as possible. I hope that my feeling is wrong.

(Do note that slices.Search is not a real function yet.)
There is Lightspeed, which is a buffer search tool thing, bound to `s`.

It's pretty nice, but to be honest I just use `/` and `n` a hell of a lot. And `j` is probably my most used character. :)
I suppose one could claim that at the time of the Convention of Lhasa, Tibet and much of India swore suzerainty to the same nation of Great Britain.

There's also the concept of Arkhand Bharat (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akhand_Bharat) which is the notion of a unified Indian subcontinent.

To mitigate the hot weather of Seville, you can live in one of the smaller towns closer to the beach. If you don't want to be around of a bunch of Americans, avoid Rota and El Puerto de Santa Maria as there is a U.S. Naval Base there. This could be a plus though as it may help you make friends quickly if you don't speak Spanish. If you have any questions about that particular area, let me know. I lived there for 3 years about 10 years ago while I was in the Navy.
It’s absolutely shocking how much pain you can be in before losing control if your willpower is strong enough.
That's not entirely true. There has always been, and still is, a free account, but of course it doesn't have all the features and has a very low upload limit.
Go could have provided message queues with priorities Erlang style or something closer native solutions in Linux/Max/Windows that are known to work. They are safe, allows to avoid deadlocks just as channels and much more flexible.

And with mutex one can build those as necessary, even if interaction with channels is ugly.
Given how easily corruption rots things.... I'd say definitively yes.

I remember, I took part in a modeling competition trying to create a sustainability index for countries. During my analysis phase I realized that almost everything measurably bad you can think of correlated astoundingly well with the corruption index for that country. Even what seemed like very distant externalities.
Oh, I feel the exact same way actually. I was just saying underpowered since the person I replied to did. I'm actually a huge defender of its stock power :P. You can find me on /r/cars fiercely defending it and getting downvoted to oblivion quite often.

I even tried an E85 tune for a bit but honestly stock tune is perfect for me with the 2017+'s gearing ratio. It feels snappy, feels great to rev high, etc.

I've known people to turn off traction control thinking they can handle it and then they don't even think about situations like the road surface being too cold or damp from light drizzle/rain. Known two young guys who wrecked with those exact situations.
I'm not sure how significant that geographic fact is. Tibet is incredibly remote and rugged. Any kind of dam project large enough to have downstream impacts would be infeasible.
What people don't realize is that the simplicity of the language also contributes to the compilation speed, so adding features to the language at the same rate as other projects (that I don't want to mention here) would jeopardize one of Go's major advantages.
It could save ram but presumably if applied wrong you could waste ram by having multiple copies of the code. So you'd probably want to profile guide this.
Would this impose any action on individual states or would this only give them the green light to implement it?

> They're using atomic read/writes with sequential-consistency.

In the C11 code? I'm not up to speed with that version of the spec, but unless there is behaviour invoked by the use of _Atomic, the code looks to me to be performing normal, non-atomic read/writes.

Another reply says there are full barriers being automatically used, but that doesn't address the problem I've described.
On Linux, you're correct, but only because the symbol namespace is global.

On Windows, every DLL with a different name also has its own distinct symbol namespace. Thus, the conflict you describe can only arise if your code explicitly propagates some time_t* value from one library to the other.
