Imagine your friend says “I’ve been working on this painting for a year”.

You can say “That’s a lot of dedication, you must be really into this project” or “you should be able to paint faster than that.”

One of these is the right and answer and the other is wrong. HN doesn’t require that you hype up every poster, but if you’re going to minimize their efforts we instead ask you to just not submit that comment.

Aren’t you just making my point? If they have to get a reactor out of a nuclear submarine, they have to cut the whole thing open. Engine work is either done inside shell is cut open and they just reweld it back. It isn’t cheap at all.

> you are really curious and not trying to find the most stupid excuse possible

This sounds like you are trying to make a Reddit comment rather than an HN one.
Kind of unexpected that this hasn't been looked at before esp. given that methane is a greenhouse gas. Didn't you kind of think that we already knew all about all sources of methane before pronouncements started being made about the 'dominant source of methane is cows' or some such. If it turns out humans are a significant contributor just by _being_, then human population growth becomes a consideration ... one that is rarely mentioned btw in climate change discussions.
Another reason for never buying a house with an HOA.
> The platforms are very proprietary and very expensive

Yes, just like "serverless", all that hype is here to serve a pricing model, nothing more. These tools don't do anything IDE like Dreamweaver or some form app generators did at the end of the 20th century. It's just "as a service" now.
Lenses can be added to cell phones through 3rd party attachments. And aren't these ML options able to be turned off? It should make the phone camera much more like a standard camera.

There are thingies called "battery placeholder", you will be able to find them easily[0], but I strongly doubt they are "safe" to lick/chew, probably safer than real batteries, still not advised for this purpose.

They are used in some cases to lower the total voltage of batteries in series, when one or two are replaced with higher voltage rechargeable ones, they are simply a straight connector.

You are aware VPNs are not just Tor right? Commercial VPNs have been in the spotlight for at least a decade as a way to spoof streaming and gaming services' regional lockouts. I have no trouble believing 25% of teenagers at least know about VPNs.
These numbers are around the same as the 1918 flu epidemic. Perhaps there's something in that ?
Personally I agree. Some areas it’s essentially impossible to get a home without an HOA however.

Also, some folks like having a small army of busy bodies go after folks doing things that they don’t like.

Oh neat! Been looking for a better Windows client. I'll check it out.
I've used it for several years before moving onto Bitwarden. While the UX on Enpass was better, I am hoping for Bitwarden to implement a couple of features and optimistic about it. What pulled me towards Bitwarden is the low cost, the huge community behind it and knowing my data is always gonna be super safe.
Hi Anand,

"Wabi-sabi" - perfection in imperfection...

This can be as easy or difficult as you choose it to be. It's seems to me like you could you use a small dose of tough love. So here goes... If you really believe you can be perfect, then you're delusional. However from the quality of your question I'd be willing to bet you're not, so that begs the question, why do you insist on torturing yourself?

If you're a sucker for a pain then keep on.

If you want to be happy however, why not start by realizing or accepting that perfection is not necessarily what you seek but the learning on the journey while we attempt to reach that perfection is the true experience here. Enjoy the ride brother, life's short, smile, be happy, appreciate what you have and keep on keeping on.

You will not reach perfection until you realize you must accept being perfectly imperfect. And when you reach that place where you see your Wabi-sabi you'll be good to go.

I hope this helped in some small way.

Sincerely,
Jean-Pierre

p.s.- if you want, checkout your cortisol levels (stress), thyroid and overall health for stress markers as it could possibly lead to serious issues if left unattended. You can go to a blood lab without having to visit a doctor for a prescription, just go to www.PrivateMDlabs.com (full disclosure, I'm the ceo there).
I don't get it. Isn't the covid virus still out there? It only takes one infection to mutate into another strain, one infection to pass it onto many other members of a community, one infection to cause long-lasting damage to your body.

Why is policy to go back to the office? That's going to guarantee viral spread. Shouldn't we at the minimum avoid clustering until the last of the virus is killed? This policy makes no sense to me.
Yes, intentionally so. In many areas of finance, two years at Goldman is roughly equivalent experience to an ivy-league MBA.
So what? There's no good evidence for QWERTY and it's based on assumptions about mechanical typewriters that are no longer true whereas Dvorak is at least based on something that applies to modern life.

There's adecnotal evidence of both in favor of Dvorak which is more than good enough for me.

Anyway, it was super easy to learn, I was lightyears ahead of my classmates in touch typing, so I'm happy.

Yes, if one decreases relative to the other, it’s easy to figure out that one changed.

You still don’t know for sure that it needs inflated, because:

1. setting tire pressures incorrectly is not uncommon

2. That button is user accessible and might be pressed inadvertently or by someone who didn’t set the tires correctly

3. If all tires change in pressure at the same time, it would be undetectable

This is why these systems generally tell you to “check” your tires, rather than inflate a specific one. If they made that assumption, your car could be telling you to inflate an already overinflated tire.
Show HN: Build a REST API from your data warehouse using dbt metrics
It seems to me insurance companies must break into two categories. The first are honest agents operating on a house-always-wins model. Meaning, over a sufficiently large time and sufficiently large customer base they pay out less than they receive, but only a normal cost + profit margin amount less. Pay out more than that and they go out of business.

The second category would be dishonest agents, which try to avoid payout and have windfall profits and basically skirt the line where lawsuits and reputational damage make that kind of profit impossible. Long term operation as such a business is challenging due to word of mouth, so they must often rebrand or change business names, or just make their products too confusing to understand.
> The fix is: don't mix code from different compilers

It’s more than that: individual compilers can’t evolve (for example change the size of intmax_t), and therefore certain desired ISO C features couldn’t be implemented, because that would break ABI compatibility with code compiled by earlier versions, which would prevent users from upgrading their compiler until all their dependencies have been upgraded, which (a) may never happen and/or (b) may be a newer version with other compatibility breaks. It may be okay in a everything-is-open-source-recompile-the-world setting, but in general it’s absolutely not practical.
Some of my yard already is clover. It still needs mowing from time to time. I have no interest in spending the time and money to replace grass with clover.

Edit: I'm not particularly attached to grass. If clover took over and pushed the grass out, I wouldn't be upset about it.

Another edit: A clover lawn also might not be durable enough for the usage much my yard gets.
I’m not asking you to predict the future, though that would be awesome, but could you share some thoughts on when/how the labor market turning might unfold?

To be fair, a kid after three years of high school is "senior". As is a kid after 3 years of college. Perhaps your word2vec("senior") is what needs recalibrating.
Thanks, that explanation is useful.

The only thing I’m curious about is:

> Telegram stores all your contacts, groups, media, and every message you've ever sent or received *in plaintext* on their servers. [emphasis mine]

This implies they don’t use encryption “at rest” - unless I’ve missed something in their FAQ[0] (entirely possible, I’m far from an expert on cryptography), they seem to imply they do.

If it is indeed the case that they don’t encrypt data at rest, I can definitely see how that would be a problem.

If data is encrypted at rest though, I don’t see how any of that is fundamentally different from the other messengers I listed in the parent - the server still holds the keys, and thus must be a trusted party - but it’s nothing new.

Comments inline but I think the gist of what you're saying is:

* containerization is good in general

* k8s' binpacking is good for efficiency

---

> Than normal processes that are platform dependent.

Why/how is k8s more efficient? Do you just mean binpacking?

> I guess other platforms also solve this, but the concept of containers (and Docker streamlined it) was the first. Everyone followed later.

"We should use containers" is different than "we should use k8s".

> Compared to having heterogeneity, even in your local environment, let alone in a production system.

Sorry I meant "compared to what other systems" not "what's the alternative to cloud flexibility?"

> Agile. CI/CD.

Here again I guess you just mean via containerization in general?
Make sure to check for generic wheels too! I think 90% of dishwashers have the same wheels but with different parts numbers.
I studied CS. It actually depends on where you want to go. For web dev, I offer the following advice.

It's much more important to be able to handle big old-ish codebases than it is to be able to handle all CS theory. Though, I'm sure it's different with FAANG. With FAANG, all that matters is passing the interview ;-)

I have almost never needed my CS theory. It's nice to know but not really applicable when you need to extend an ACL (security permissions for users) or refactor the i18n export function. What is needed is understanding how to quickly navigate in a codebase while touching few to many files (depending on the task).

How to get this experience? I don't know, I studied computer science. I think an internship is best? Perhaps contributing to an open-source project? Perhaps creating your own side project?

I'd think along those lines. Though it could be that other HN'ers have a totally different perspective. I'm curious what they have to say.
I’m not sure why this comment is grey. I know this wouldn’t necessarily work for everyone, but hey voice/video meetings don’t work well for some of us either. Folks, do what works for you and your team. Not everyone has to do the same thing.
Vaguely accurate is just another way of saying wrong.
Given the state of the project, they are mostly looking for contributors instead of players, so linking to the codeberg page is actually the right thing to do, I'd think.

By that logic you will never go back to the office, because the virus will never be entirely eradicated everywhere in the world.
The problem with 1Password is its poorly managed feature complexity and things shuffling around paywalls. Throw in frequent changes to pricing and that talked me out of using it.
It is not dismissive at all. I enjoyed the article, it was well written, engaging, and touches very important points. My points are not negative for the article, are negative for the people involved, and one may agree or disagree.

The "support" was not support, was a selfish desire to fit the other person in a void of affection that needed to be filled by someone. One wanted a new mother and the other a new daughter/mentor. That "friendship" is a case-study in toxicity, when one person had a role that they did not ask for and generates a vortex of endless accusations that cannot have any sort of resolution.

In fact, as far as I understand, they are not friends anymore and they are both better off that way.
They're not difficult, but they are expensive. Which is what ends up in prices.

Check warehouse rates or spot freight shipping.
How is this different than a warranty, which already comes with every device? I agree with you that this should be very explicit, although it’s the consumer’s responsibility as well to understand what they’re purchasing.

Not sure I understand the 2nd part. If Apple or Google don’t want to issue security fixes after N years, should they remotely disable the device? How many of us are currently using devices beyond their warranty period? How many of us will appreciate it if our devices got disabled “for our own good”?
> I've found the hard way that no friends is better than the wrong friends

Can you elaborate?

Unfortunately no. ^That’s the one I have. OralB and Phillips are the good ones and both do this battery not replaceable nonsense.

My 10+ year old OralB had a replaceable battery and it worked fine and had no issues with water safety even though I washed the entire unit under water.

Regardless of whether what he's saying is true, it could still in theory be coerced, which is why there is a general prohibition on allowing POWs to make public statements. And while in this case it does not appear as if he is being coerced, allowing him to make a public statement like this isn't a good precedent to set, as the Russians will start trotting out POWs as well.

"Environmental impact" is very broad - you can argue it to cover almost anything.

I think this the main problem: do you trust a bureaucracy(is. non-technical people working in good faith to make rules for the society) to understand the implications of products or do you trust the manufacturer to do the same. In my opinion the bureaucrat can have good intentions, but lacks technical knowledge, while the manufacturer has the technical knowledge, but has incentives to disregard safety.

One of the things that I noticed that when I lived in India and England, I never felt lonely . It was more walkable and there was less of a comparing salaries and lifestyles and more of hanging out and ‘chilling’. Maybe I was younger . But moving to the US has been bad because how isolating it is - cannot get out of the house and walk to a place or a market or bar except NYC . Most social connections are around an activity like playing board games or running . No one wants to just hang out and talk without discussing jobs and salaries. People from different classes and jobs and lifestyles rarely mix . I do regret moving to the US from a social and friends perspective.
My first programming job was working with Asymetrix Toolbook, which was basically Hypercard with the ability save generated code in the final project. I still think it was kind of cool that I could write something like this in 1992 (syntax is obviously incorrect):
func doSomethingImportant()
hugFamily()
notifyThePresident()
end

set somePage.someButton.onclick = doSomethingImportant()

I could pop that into a console window, save the application, and the handler I assigned for someButton on somePage would be persisted across saves in the IDE.

That simple feature, which they apparently got rid of later, was a very gentle introduction to metaprogramming and I never had that with any of the other visual programming environments I've worked in since.
Being among a person's social media contacts seems like about the shallowest definition of "friend" that there is. It's not much different from getting birthday cards from your financial advisor or insurance agent.

What it has done is create a country full of people who hate Russia, who will escape, sabotage, destroy every aspect of Russia. It has also shown it's own Russian population that another Stalin/Hitler walks in the halls of power(he dare not walk amongst them!!) - who will escape, sabotage, destroy every aspect of Russia from within, and it has shown who the real beast is. After the USSR fragmented, we all hoped we could all return to a normal world. NATO slowly started to wind down via budgetary strangulation heading towards the fate of the not needed - NO MORE - NATO budgets are upped by ~~ 100% or more, people are aware of the nature of the beast, and now Russia is a pigmy compared to the USSR.
Anything below 30 is too young actually, yes some 20yo founders succeed, but being 30+ and thus more mature derisks the entire operation.
There are a lot of green alternatives that don't require the weekly maintenance and are better from a flora/fauna point of view than grass monoculture.
I really don't understand the militancy of both sides.

Some people like the office, some people can't abide it.

A lot of programmers love remote because they enjoy the isolation to do work. Others do not, be that because they need to talk to people, or because the home situation sucks donkey balls.

I suspect the venom is because people are assuming that its a binary situation, you're either a remote company or not. They worry that their remote will be taken from them. I don't think removing the remote option is wise or healthy.

I don't think the future is fully remote _for everyone_, because fundamentally we are social people. On the flip side, I don't think full office 5 days a week is going to be the future either (caveats apply.)

The other point to think about is this: remote work is brill if you are enjoying it, but it licks massive donkeyballs if you don't. Having that dread of the workplace seep into where you are living is deeply bad for your mental health.
There are many more problems in the world than Covid. This myopic fixation on one single thing to the exclusion of basically everything else was not healthy nor sustainable.
> Shouldn't we at the minimum avoid clustering until the last of the virus is killed? This policy makes no sense to me.

You don't get it because you have a totally ridiculous expectation of "until the last of the virus is killed"

sars-cov-2 is endemic, we're well past the flattening the curve phase, it's time to get on with life. Everyone eligible in the US has had more than enough opportunity to get vaccinated and boosted to prepare for the inevitable exposure.
Casual bit of racism. The main reason for despotism/imperialism is just economics.
I’ve seen several medical organizations seeking volunteers who speak Ukrainian to help with refugees. It’s concerning to me how little some organizations value accurate translation. Even when there is potential liability involved.
I’ve heard of a guy who paved his front lawn with green concrete and mounted a lawn mower on a pedestal in the middle.

JAX is really cool, but still somewhat immature. I would love to see it taking more ground and improving wrt e.g. integration with tensorboard and getting all the goodies we have in tensorflow. If you are looking for a higher level framework, I would recommend elegy [0] which is very close to the keras API.

The comment says "and 25% tor specifically"
Ain't gonna happen. Resignation is only starting.
What do you mean "until the last of the virus is killed"? Apart from the very beginning of the pandemic, this was never even on the table.

Covid is here forever, same as any other cold/flu, we must learn to live with it.
Russia’s “sovereign internet”: what happens if it isolates itself from internet?
At some point, maybe. Let's say we are subsistence farmers (as close to self sufficient, pure labor as it gets), and I spend extra time on the side to raise an ox. I cannot utilize the ox to its full potential myself, but I can lend it to others and massively increase their labor productivity without much increasing their labor input (or even while decreasing it). The ox is capital. What creates the extra wealth from others' work here and who deserves to keep it? I'd argue that if it decreases labor input I "deserve" 100% of the wealth differential, or close to 100% otherwise. That labor gets a lot of it is really unfair, although I do admit it's a necessary evil.
My most essential fix is getting the unbranded builds of Firefox so that I can control my own browser. These builds have no FF branding and they've disabled auto-update in them but they have the major advantage of actually allowing you to edit your extensions/add-ons without having to play security theater with Mozilla's automated signing portal every time you make a change.

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Add-ons/Extension_Signing#Unbranded... - the linked 97.0.1 is still exploitable with the xslt bug so you have to dig into the build system at,

https://treeherder.mozilla.org/#/jobs?repo=mozilla-release&s...

And no, running the unstable developer builds is not an option. The dev line goes back to "alpha"/aurora in the old times and it still plays that role. It crashes in my experience on weird setups.
It was revolutionary in the self-balancing aspect.

I don't think it's the hype cycle that killed the Segway so much as the unwillingness of really any national government or major municipality to encourage people to whizz around on pavements using a powered device.

Of course they did. There is also no war in Ukraine and Russia does not plan to attack other countries.
Tell that to the rust belt.
> A Ukrainian friend joked that I’d be in trouble if I was stopped at a Territorial Defense checkpoint and asked to say what had become a kind of code word for sussing out enemy agents: palyanitsa, the name of a soft white-bread loaf.

Ugh. That sounds like the author revealing confidential info, that could potentially allow saboteurs to pass by checkpoints. :(

This is the problem with most homes that have vent hoods. I’ve yet to be in a home that has a make up air fan.

I live in a rental right now that doesn’t even have a vent. I just open the door and a window and hope that’s sufficient. (But it really isn’t)
