> Also, if the subject is more interesting than the title, then authors should consider being more thoughtful around a title that fits the subject, vs. making sure people click the article.

The problem with this is that, frequently -- as is the case here I'd say -- there is no easy way to properly pin down the actual topic in the space of a reasonable title. The title will necessarily be more broad than the actual topic; if you in general take titles as wholly delineating the topic, rather than suggesting the general space they're in, you're making a mistake.

Sticking only to those topics that can be wholly expressed in the space of a brief title is a big limitation on topics; as I said above, taking titles as topics just leads to the same discussions over and over.
This is how I like to learn most technologies. If e.g. a language does not have proper documentation but rather a bunch of almost-blog-post tutorials, then I have no interest in learning it.

That said, some tech goes too far. You'll never learn C++ by reading the standards.
Judging by history the history has never taught anybody. So if sanctions will be lifted I am sure there will be plenty of Western companies willing to “capitalize on the opportunity “.

The problem for Russia is its ever increasing dependence on China. Sanctions pushes in that direction even strongly. And compared with Western companies Chinese ones has much less problems to bribe Russian officials or ignore local laws if they can get away from it. Plus they are much more strongly controled by Beijing which would make Russia much more vulnerable to any changes in politics in China.

Monetary policy is the elephant in the room that no one in charge dare mention.

A quick look at the numbers makes this obvious. Consider that 80% of all dollars that exist were created in the past three years.

Now ask why Janet Yellen, Jerome Powell, and the Biden administration conveniently forget to mention even the possibility that money printing may have been a contributing factor driving inflation.
I didn't get very far because Silicon Valley is very discriminatory and I can't stomach the denials. There was a long, sordid history of preventing Blacks and other people of color from buying. There were few opportunities to participate in the wealth engine compared to the nominal chances in a place like NYC where the most impoverished tracts in America (Bronx) were just a subway ride to Wall Street.

So yeah, Silicon Valley undercuts itself on talent, quality, ethics, equity and the like and always has.
That is a very heavily commented ticket (600+ comments) so it’s hard to assess all the alternative positions.

However, in my view: as one of the four stewards of WHATWG, Apple have an obligation to either implement the standard, or propose a convincing alternative that the steering group can adopt.

I don’t know what’s more embarrassing; that Apple tried to use market power to modify a standard after failing to do so in committee, or that after six years even that strategy was a failure. Either way it all smacks of institutional arrogance.

If you print a trillion and give it only to me, there is no much inflation because what could I possibly buy much more than I do? Not bread or gas. It will go in financial products and market indexes will grow.

If you give $1000 to 1 M people then you start having inflation because those money go into shops.

This is the lesson from the last 15 years.
Ask HN: Better automated translation with 2 source languages?
I speak French and English. I have localized my web app in these two languages. Now I'd like to add more languages.

I suppose that leveraging the two existing languages can help reduce ambiguity and improve the translation to a 3rd language?

Example:
- the menu has "Home" as a first item, in English
- in French, this item is translated as "Accueil" (literally, 'welcome' in English)
=> together, these point to a precise meaning of the item, that should be close to "Startseite" in German, not the German term for "Home" nor "Welcome".

Do you know of any translation service that would offer this feature?

Shelter is something you need. If you rent, the cost rises with inflation. With the US government, taxpayers effectively pay the inflation for you.

That doesn’t work. It results in emotional blackmail “don’t be the person letting the team down by refusing to be on call”, “share the burden with your team”, “everyone else has no problems going on call”, “I got a call out on my kids birthday in the park at a party, here’s a photo of me sat in the corner on a laptop, it wasn’t so bad”, “take one for the team, we give you free softdrinks and deli bar”
This take that on-call must require you to be compensated at 100% of your normal pay is rediculous. If I got paid 50% of my salary to be on call (noting that I get paid OT if I actually work) I would consider myself to be robbing the company blind.

This is mostly accurate for CodeMirror version 5. But this article is talking about version 6, which was intentionally built in a way that avoids the problem.
The difference between machinery and software in this example is that one is outsourcing manufacturing and the other design.

When you outsource manufacturing you're asking the other party to create exact replicas according to very specific specs your own engineers created.

With software the outsourcing usually includes outsourcing a large part of the design, which is inevitable, as there is no significant manufacturing you can outsource.
Writing the software is creating the detailed specs. In software there is only product design, you don't really have to put a lot of effort into creating exact copies of the original design.
I'm not a libertarian, far from it, but as someone who doesn't give the first #### about watching sports, this really does seem to me to be an area that should be left to market forces. These sports teams are businesses, they have customers, massive income streams etc. If they can't afford the facilities they need, then they need to restructure the business. The taxpayer should not be on the hook, as it's not a municipal service, it's just entertainment for a subset of the population.

I find it weird this happens in the US, where there is such an emphasis on not providing things other countries may see as a state function (healthcare, public transport...). It's not just the US of course, but it seems to be most apparent there.

I have tried both OpenHAB and HomeAssistant extensively.

My recommendation: use HomeAssistant, do not bother with OpenHAB

Rationale:

. OpenHab is very powerful but requires the user to invest a lot of time to configure it properly

. OpenHab data model is very, very (and in my opinion unnecessarily) convoluted and it takes a lots of work/time to wrap your head around it

. OpenHab is implemented in Java and drags along with it all the heaviness/unwieldiness of the Java world. In particular, if you want to do anything a little complex, that implies writing a Java plugin.

. Home Assistant is Python. For simple, code-based changes to the system, YMMV but I personally think that Java vs. Python ... Python wins hands down.

. Home Assistant works "out of the box" for most things, and is also very flexible when you want to

. The Home Assistant community is much larger, and if you are doing exotic stuff, you'll find a ton more support online

I don't think you understood what you were buying. The Pico has no relation to the rest if the RPi product line.

It is basically an Arduino on steroids. It cannot run cron jobs. It has no network stack, kernel or operating system, and cannot run any software not specifically written for it.
> The law of supply and demand is what sets prices across an entire economy, not some grand conspiracy by every company to overcharge consumers.

Nope. Prices are set by what the market is willing to bear. Supply and demand are loosely correlated with the final retail price of things.

Demand for a good is based on its current asking price and how the consumer values that good. If the asking price ends up pricing the good out of the market's ability to pay for it the demand will drop irrespective of the supply.

As for conspiracies to increase prices, that's just a ludicrous position. All players in the market with the same incentives can move in lockstep with zero coordination. There doesn't need to be a conspiracy when every company basically lives by "make the most money".

If you see a competitor raising prices it's the perfect time to raise your own prices irrespective of your costs. If your costs haven't increased then you get better margins for free. There's no need for direct collusion when competitors are looking at the same news and have the same overall playbook.
Totally agreed. We're getting roped into a bullshit war that we have no reason to care about, by people who don't care one little bit about how it affects us. The grossest part is watching these quislings on the internet who have bought into the propaganda try to tell us we're the crazy ones for not going along with this whole scheme.
> Is openHab any better?

I would say: firm no.

See my other comment in the thread as to why.
My solution to this has always been to auto-generate a password and dump it in a by file.

If it's a test instance then this is a nice obvious place to go get it from. If it's not then the service isn't open by default, and in both cases we're not asking people to enable remote access themselves by some scheme which may allow them to do it without setting a password.

Same thing with TLS IMO: let certs be specified, or default to generating some - any option is better then default no encryption.

Ethanol has a higher octane rating. IIRC, the main issue with Ethanol is corrosion, not performance. Your _engine_ will love the stuff.

The tank / seals / gaskets on the other hand... that's the problem.

> and the ethanol is lower energy density and expensive to produce.

So? Its an alternative fuel. If gasoline becomes $10 a gallon, then we use more Ethanol. The idea is to have a plan for the incoming oil shock.

If gasoline becomes more expensive, then ethanol almost certainly will become a better idea, especially because (when mixed with Gasoline), most car engines can use it.
This creates an interesting work model: drive to work via company bus in the morning, drive home via company bus in the evening, just leave your laptop on the bus. Travel time counts as work time. Same route twice a day, so everybody works the same length.
a) It's easier to reduce supply on short notice than increase it. Nobody wants to sell below cost.

b) Deflation is bad but really easy to counteract. Print money and give it to people. Counteracting inflation is more expensive.

Interesting. The conclusion you draw from this differs wildly from my conclusion.

Whenever I read stories like these, it seems clear to me that someone moved to the cloud in order to not have to care about security. The 'cloud does everything for you!'. Just like you imply in your answer that PaaS, the next level of abstraction, will solve all your security problems.
This move, however, will inevitably lead to a situation where people work with new and complex systems that they don't understand (remember: not having to understand them is the sole reason they use them). Unfortunately, working with complex systems you don't understand is the number one reason for vulnerabilities in the first place.

I am not convinced that a service exists that abstracts security away from you.

We’re more susceptible to the narrative in which these stadiums used to get funding (now days more so is my meaning). Goes something like this:

- You have poor shitty neighborhoods

- Subsidize building of a stadium in said shithole, and watch the dollars come in.

- You’ll have increased commerce and development of surrounding area with ample employment for said shitty neighborhood residents.

We don’t need recent history to post mortem this, they figured out it actually doesn’t improve the region much a long time ago.

The only thing that reasonably works is gentrification, but, well, you know … that’s racist. How do you solve it? I don’t know, white people seem to have the money. We have to start much higher up to root cause analyze this, and while I’m annoyed by wokeness, root causing this kind of more or less leads us to ‘why the fuck are there so many white people with money’?.

Anyways, stadiums. It’s just a bug way down the ladder.

The author describes just the most basic of all advice for achieving goals: subdividing them into smaller goals. Depending on the nature of the top goal, it may, of course, even be advisable to have multiple levels of subgoals. ("learn C/C++" -> "write a tiny Linux kernel module" -> "learn about the Linux kernel" -> "learn about Linux device drivers" -> "learn about Linux device drivers for sound" -> ...)
If there is any doubt regarding the stealing, then in this example i prefer the weasel wording version. The first one is incorrect, the last one you're suggesting an accuracy that you can't really back up, in order to convince someone.

So in this case the weasel wording doesn't make the statement weaker as it shows strength to admit you may be wrong.

> Regardless of the word, this should be the approach. That’s what code review is: two or more people collaborating to make a change successful.

Nah, it is review. It is not collaboration, that is just newspeak for review. Collaboration works differently. It does not expect one person to do stuff and other to comment on in when it is expected to be almost done.

And involving that person sooner is just buying compliance here, so that review is smoother.

I think you're over complicating things. I don't know what the definition of 'going over the limit' is in the US but in the UK it is 10% plus 2mph. This leaves plenty of leeway for your emergency dash to the hospital at 5mph over the limit and the occasional lapse of concentration.

I concede that you do already have severe penalties for reckless driving but they are not rigorously enforced except for extreme outlying cases and/or where a serious collision has resulted. And, I think, this is where the true solution may be found since more rigid enforcement of existing laws may actually be enough to deter all but the most determined of miscreants.

IMHO, using the flexible tool has a sunk cost on it. We choose them for the If's and When's. And the majority of times they never come.

My experience comes from React. My love to it came for the freedom, but once I figure my way of working on it, then I realized that I wanted a comfortable way of doing things in React. And that is something that the community "agreed" in silence, not for nothing next.js is getting the 1# of way of doing things.

With this we are somewhat trading the "flexibility" of React. But this is why I ask myself, what is the flexibility I wanted? I am always going to use the same router library, the same ui library, I wanted an "opinionated way of doing things", my own opinion, but I just liked the flexibility of the api of React.

At the end, I understood that we want opinions, but opinions that match our mental model. With the help of those we can figure efficient doings in efficient time. Because too much freedom gets in the way.

If I were starting today I would directly choose next, instead of trying to make my own framework with create react app, I would choose an opinion with solid foundations like next.
