Reams has taken me over four years, grabbing 15 minute opportunities between full-time job, raising a family, the pandemic, etc. I've used RSS for years, but it's always bugged me that reading RSS feeds feels like a chore, a pile of paperwork I have to get through, instead of a pleasure. I love reading, and I love the experience of losing myself in text and images, so I wanted to make something that made that possible.

Reams has an algorithmic layout engine that does lots of text measuring and other calculations to make nice cover pages for stories that have good images. It also uses Tensor Flow to do face detection on images so that if I have to crop them it centres the largest face. It also works really hard to make the typography of each story as beautiful as possible.

It supports Feedbin, Feed Wrangler and has its own built-in RSS client, a Safari share extension for feed detection and to save pages in Reams to read later, plus all the usual bells and whistles (full text view using the Mercury parser, dark mode, etc.)

The source code is at https://github.com/admbtlr/reams. Oh, and I made a website and movie for it at https://reams.app/.

Hope you like it!

I just don’t think that’s realistic. We have all this commotion over dissolving student debt, but amongst minorities, they are saddled with all kinds of other debts.

Dissolve that. Give credit score amnesty. Those house loans will be flying off the shelves if we ever did that.

But nah, let’s focus on the guys that majored in Trombone or Classics at a private school for 25k a year.

It’s technically cheaper for tax payers since credit defaults are usually sold to collections for pennies on the dollar. That seems way more affordable, and gives a proper tabula rasa (versus a 1000 stimulus check). We’ll just subsidize the collections payments which usually settle for way less anyway, and just free people up. We should technically do the same for student debt. Have these dumbass schools send the debt to collections, and we’ll pay the stupid 10 cents on the dollar. Fuck off and never over charge again. Why would we actually pay off the full ridiculous amount?

Calling these tools "knock offs" is not just insulting to the people building these tools but also far detached from reality since several FAANG employees would tell you how much better the OSS rewrite is compared to the original one.
> There is nothing like tyranny of one. Its always Tyranny of interest groups

The "interest groups" that rule Russia is less than 100 people. It's not the same as interest groups in democracies.

> Look at any HDI or UN statistics that matter and see the conditions on largest human population on one side represented by democratic India and on another side by a closed system in China.

India would have to kill millions of its own citizens to get equally bad as China. But you probably don't consider how it was created, just the end effect, right? What's a few millions dead here and there if they can build cheap factories :)

> But a narrative of good vs evil, superior vs inferior is a root cause of conflicts.

Killing innocent people is in fact evil. Systems where you can do that with no consequences are in fact inferior.

And the root of all conflict is politicians starting wars because they think they can get away with it. The narratives are always there, with any implication you want, you just have to choose one and decide to go with it.

The big advantage of democracy is that you don't (in general) get away with it. You can for a while, but not forever.
In layman’s approximation, could this be exactly how modern x86 CPU with multi-level caches work, or is it completely different from such things?
the solution would be to find someone with a t-mobile sim, borrow the sim/lend them the phone and get the phone unlocked.

"Hey, I just bought a used iphone that is locked to t-mobile, which is normally fine, but I'm about to go overseas and need to use it with a local sim card, can you unlock it for me"

I've done this multiple times (spread out by years so not abusing anything).

We need a Hackerdome in Menlo Park.

Sure, we have that Metaface company, a few little robin hoods, and those people who venture onto the sand dunes.

But where can two teams of world class hackers fight it out to the finish? Nowhere, I tell you!

There is some underused land in Bedwell Bayfront Park, at the end of Marsh Road.

It gets a few hikers, some ham radio people on Field Day, and not much else?

We can build our Hackerdome there, and insure that hackers will always be welcome to compete in Menlo Park!

All we need is your support and your tax dollars. Vote YES to support the Hackerdome!

How to Become a Java Programmer?
Businesses and associations frequently hire Java programmers for critical software systems. The demand for Java programmers probably will continue to be strong, thanks to Java’s fashionability and the growing need for mobile operations and assiduity-specific software.Getting a Java inventor frequently requires a bachelorette’s degree in computer wisdom or an affiliated field, but the experience is just as important.

> Who am I to say what they should do?

A voter and a taxpayer?
I mean, sure, like everything (hopefully) it's subject to democratic forces and what the local people want. But there's endless debate over what the state should and shouldn't get involved in. I and my vote, (not that I am eligible right now, as a recent migrant) think this falls on the "shouldn't" side, where community facilities, public transport etc fall more on the "should" side.

> as long as they know it's unlikely to make economic sense

I guess that's the thing - is it made abundantly clear that these things are likely to be a net negative? That those of us not into sports are going to be footing the bill equally and not benefiting from and side-effects? Perhaps it should be more so.
California is supposed to be fifth economy in the world. You can use software produced in California under sanctions by ignoring intellectual rights. This wouldn't work with physical goods. You can't replace oil from one source with oil from another. Deficit of some resource chokes production of things that depend on this resource. And it's a chain reaction.
agree with most points, recently upgraded to OH 3.x though and I have to say they have abstracted a lot of their complexity (particulary like the new semantic model) HomeAssistant I found harder to use for a very very specific reason, it didn't have a MySensors binding. thats it :/ so yes in general HomeAssistant is better, until it doesn't support what you want.
GitHub does have some very generous free tier stuff. But as these sort of things become more common it's destined to be lowered or more heavily limited. Nothing against the project, I think it's an awesome idea with great execution. I'll probably set it up sometime soon.
It is a function of incentives and punishments. The nature of the company you are in and the risk the org is willing to bear plays out. I work for one that puts in a lot of effort to get rid of all the user data if they request a deletion based on the laws of the country they are from which we can expand to any user as needed. Whenever we have found gaps in our existing data storage, we go back and really try to clean it up. However there is a lot of legacy that surfaces out time to time.

The reality is doing this is messy and is going to remain so for some time. One cannot suddenly start after years of no incentives in the online economy to do this and get to cover all areas without huge cost. This requires giving up competitive advantage today. Mid to small organisations that were beyond startup state but not yet having 1000's of engineers, which have to balance growth and operational aspects are left in the most difficult situation. As the laws started taking hold, their incentive structure is still not fully aligned with this as the digital economy does not yet reward them for this enough nor does enforcement create a large enough risk yet. Same thing plays out with some of the larger orgs, just that they have more lawyers to help them stall this as humans are always biased to keep the status quo if it is beneficial to them.

Personally I think we've had a start but its going to take some time to get to where we need to be. I really applaud the idea of the privacy laws and the intent behind them. Its just that one has to recognise we won't be getting to a state of good behaviour within a few years after a couple of decades of not having those requirements baked in from the get go. Old habits have to be replaced as well. The enforcement is hard and that will be something that has to be bubbled upwards from the ground up by users themselves to create a digital economy where consumers/users reward those that respect their privacy. It is just not yet that way today, so why would the organisations change? The risk is low as enforcement is hard and the user demand is not enough.

Most successful would be attempts by large organisations such as Apple and laws like GDPR which forces developers and companies to change their thinking. By asking for change and continuing to iterate on that you can start seeing a slow move towards development practices that will have privacy by default. You need the whole chain of actors to move towards this: The product managers, the engineering leads and architects, the decision makers, the risk assessors. Once enforcement is more steady alongside more demand from users the balance will come. All of this moves slowly whether we like it or not.

Support told me this directly once - almost everything is automated and they have no control over it.

My two month old pixel had the microphone die suddenly. After battling for a week, they refused to send me anything but a refurbished phone. Then they didn't scan the return in when received and charged me the full, brand new price for the refurb. Another couple days of useless support tech I got my money back.
These are all things that most people never notice because they just work.

Taking the example of grocery store logistics, the number of times products are unavailable in my local store makes me thing that's a thing that doesn't "just work". It's something that breaks down regularly, and possibly has lots of people working hard to keep it from breaking even more often.

The same is true for lots of things. Stuff like water delivery and silicon manufacturing doesn't break all the time because lots of people are fighting to make it work, and are actively maintaining it all the time.

I think it's possible that most things don't "just work", and we're just fortunate that there are teams of people out there stopping us seeing the effects of all the failures.

Russian TV news editor interrupts live broadcast with ‘No War’ sign
Do you really think so?

Russia has no way of winning this conflict. Their military is facing huge losses (increasing their demographic problems), there is no way they can keep Ukraine occupied and they have given up on regime change. The Russian economy is in shambles because of the sanctions (which hit a lot harder because of strong ties with western markets) and will never recover. Europe has accelerated its departure from fossil fuels.

Putin has fired some generals and placed the head of the FSB's foreign intelligence branch under house arrest.

How can this be seen other then a total strategic blunder of Putin? Do you really think Xi is looking at this mess and be like "Yeah, give me one of those, too."?
IMO, this belief system comes close to one that mentions to find one's sweet spot between rage & serenity, for real focus & bliss.

Nix is advanced alien technology that was badly damaged when it fell from the sky. In particular the docs/blogs/forums are net negative some ridiculously high amount of the time, like start composing an email: “I have a very special set of skills, and I will find you…” amount of the time.

But once it starts working: how does anyone do this any other way?

- The language is reasonably well-documented and those docs are rarely wrong.

- Learn bash, like really really learn bash.

- Check out nixpkgs and use that to figure out how to do stuff.

- Only do this if paying the entire cost in time and frustration in one aneurism-inducing spasm upfront is a worthwhile tradeoff for having everything work perfectly every time thereafter.

It’s kinda like being Paul Atriedes: you get magic powers but first you put your hand in the fucking box. What’s in the box?

During the monetary expansion post-2008, I recall listening to a number of experts basically predict exactly what's happening today - "the problem with expanding the money supply is that by the time you realize you need to pull back, it's too late and there will be a ton of political pressure to wait just a bit longer".
Y’all need to reevaluate who you’re giving your time to, these reactions are clearly the result of some serious trauma that’s got nothing to do with the concept of being “on call”…

Sure, and my point was much more about funding than it was about land use. Yes, any project of that size is going to require not just a location, but infrastructure, transport etc etc. So perhaps you're right and it can never be a purely commercial project.

To my mind the sports team would also have to pay for the infrastructure improvements etc and knock-on costs too. But then I really have little time for professional sports!

More money supply likely accounts for some increase in demand. But the lockdowns themselves likely had more effect on demand than more cash. People need or want more things when they travel less and have fewer services to consume. When behavior changes in large ways, demand shifts to different things. Printing more cash didn't drive demand for n95 masks. It also didn't drive demand for things like flour and many other commodities. With the exception of those in extreme poverty, most people didn't run out and buy more toilet paper and flour because they got a stimulus check.

> but it seems to be most apparent there

Looks more like they are less good at hiding it or don't need to. In the town's around here the cities usually bail out the sport teams after they go bankrupt (and thus don't) or put the stadiums into massive infrastructure plans so it gets murky how much was spent on it with public funds. Fortunately the trend seems to go towards letting the football (original, not the US version) clubs drown in their own mess more and more but it's far from over.
The draft was written 6 years ago, and didn't get updated for 4 years.

Isn't it abandoned?
Why not?

It’s up to the people of a city how much they want to spend and on what.

Sports happen to be very popular with a large group of people who aren’t interested in the rest of what a city spends on. You can have those people watching sports or you can have them complaining about the rest of the spending because they didn’t get their piece of the pie.

Confession from a Foreign Fighter: “The Whole Foreign Legion Got Eliminated.”
Such a terrible take. Wikileaks did leak Russian intelligence files. The argument that he hasn't leaked the same amount hinges on the assumption that he somehow has access to everything, which is of course nonsense.

Snowden, I think, somewhat blinded by the overwhelming US propaganda machine and the fact that he's stuck in Russia, made an honest mistake. He admitted as much on his Twitter. Nobody's perfect, that doesn't mean they're working for Putin.

Why are people upvoting this as if it wasn't just explained why that's not true? That's only possible when you have (mandatory) block delimiters. That was the entire basis of the comment—that `elif` is used in "languages that don't have an explicit block statement with its own delimiters".
The big name in this is Bulk Handling Systems.[1] They build and sell large complete recycling plants. They do about 90% of the sorting with a series of mechanical processes. The robots do only the "quality control" step, pulling out items that got past the choppers, shakers, screens, air blasts, and magnets. That gets the outputs up to 99%+ of the desired product, so it can go into recycling processes that take in cardboard, plastics sorted by type, etc. It makes the robotics cost effective.

San Francisco's recycling operation, at Pier 95, uses a system built by them.

It's not a glamorous technology, but it gets the job done.

Apart from Putin and his defence staff's public statements to the contrary? We practically have a Mein kampf equivalent of Putin's ambitions.
