You’re touching on a few different points so I’ll try to cover everything.

- We do build on top OSS (just not those programs you listed - see https://pspdfkit.com/legal/acknowledgements/processor-acknow... for a complete list). The layer we build is quite large though, and it would take many person-years to replicate in its entirety. It’s possible though that you don’t need that at all and a focused program that wraps other ones might do the trick for your use case.

- If you build a product based on our tech, you’re taking a conscious decision about risk: while I do think we’re gonna be in business in 10 years (we have solid revenue and last year we got backed by a large investor, Insight), that we would version APIs and support you (not just during upgrades), the reality is that it is indeed possible that we’re not gonna be around anymore, like every other company on the planet. As a consumer, this is the reality for most of the things we buy nowadays. We do take deprecation seriously, as sell SDKs, and I’m sure in case of the company shutting down you would have enough time to migrate.

- Depending on what you need to build, using our product may shortcut your development time by a large factor. It may not, if you just need to rotate pages of a PDF document and there’s a reliable OSS package that does that in your language of choice. It really depends on what you need to do.

- Even if you package everything with OSS, waiting 10 years is a sufficiently large amount of time that it may not work and you have to fork and rebuild yourself. It’s a different type of risk, but still a risk. 10 years ago Docker had just been launched. Whether you build something on OSS or commercial, you would wanna test things once a year to see if they still work or keep up with security and bug fixes.

Ultimately, there are situations where the approach you described is sound: for example, I do my taxes in plain text accounting, using ledger and emacs. I generate the reporting via a couple of Ruby scripts. I do that exactly because I care about longevity: I do my taxes once a year, I don’t wanna spend time fixing the toolchain every time I have to do them. Yet every year I hit a couple of snags I have to fix, but I consider that acceptable.
This account exists ONLY to talk about that app. Every one of my projects is isolated from the others by using different accounts, etc. We should all be meticulous about compartmentalizing our online identity.

This app uses an unusual image codec (BPG) which illustrates that if you control the encoder and decoder, you can choose a format with no mainstream support. I think it is a good point.
The title is technically true, but it makes a strong effort to paint it as a bad thing.
I'm not saying which one is earlier as I have no idea, but comparing these two dates doesn't seem to be a good way.

Implementation of HEIC existed before its documentation finalized.
Show HN: Hyperion – Deploy, manage and debug Helm apps across Multiple Clusters
Hi Everyone, Prashant here from Devtron. With the community’s help and feedback, we built Hyperion - An Opensource tool to observe, deploy, manage & debug Helm Application on Multiple Clusters. We developed Hyperion as a module that comes with Devtron preinstalled or it can be separately installed.

While there are pre-existing tools like Kubernetes dashboard, Lens, Octant; Hyperion is focused on helm charts.

Some of the features which sets it apart are:
- Deploy, manage, observe and Debug Helm charts across multiple clusters.
A. Install, Manage Helm charts, Applications across multiple Kubernetes clusters (hosted on multiple cloud/on-prem) from a single Hyperion setup.

- Visualize resources deployed via helm charts contextually in a slick UI for easier monitoring and debugging.
A. Hyperion groups your Kubernetes objects deployed via Helm charts and display them in a slick UI, for easier monitoring or debugging. Access pod logs and resource manifests right from the Hyperion UI and even edit them!

- Centralized fine grained Access Management across multiple cluster.
A. Control and give customizable view-only, edit access to users at Project, Environment and Application levels

- View and Edit Kubernetes manifests, grep logs right from the Hyperion dashboard.
A. View and Edit all the Kubernetes resources right from the Hyperion dashboard

We have many more features planned for it in coming weeks.

Here are some more links that might be helpful:

> Why would you recover those drones

Because presumably they cost money ( more than a cruise missile in any case), and reuse would be practical. But indeed, cruise missiles are already in the hundreds of thousands USD price range per unit, so single use drones wouldn't be something extraordinary.

It sounds like the surgeon believed that if being misled, op would also be joining the surgeon in jail. Perhaps the wrong side was chosen and the surgeon moved to the other side to finish what was originally intended.

This is such an obvious thing now that I see it. Great idea and execution. One might argue this should be a feature available natively, and a valid use-case for face-detection other than identification and tagging.
"feeds the narrative" - this is not a "narrative", this is reality
Looks great; very substantive. Do you think I'd survive if I haven't done any express, node or mongo before? (I'm willing to give it a shot, but not sure if it would be sensible because I could get stuck and spend time on issues unrelated to docker).

I'll be watching it in its entirety either way.
Apple is even a governing member of the alliance behind AV1 (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alliance_for_Open_Media), so the case could be different than with previous free codecs.
There are plenty of "mundane" explanation for the motion of the object to be real as well, and not just camera glare. No need to invoke aliens. For example, this video shows SDI technology from the 80s:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnofCyaWhI0

which appears perfectly capable (albeit in test) of in-place rotation/motion very similar to that of the object. It could very well have been a drone, but I find it incredible that people dismiss first hand accounts in preference to some internet armchair quarterback.
In fact, it's originally from the US and aired in no less than 16 countries: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lingo_(American_game_show)
I couldn’t agree more. I was using torrents 10 years ago and stopped when Spotify and Netflix had great offers.

But now, every second show is one yet another platform. I don’t even start with movies… So I’m back to using torrent because it simply became easier: there is one place to find everything.
Thanks, this is exactly what I wanted to see.
Agreed that it'd be great to have that phash image index. A full text search of the Wayback Machine's archives would be amazing to have as well..!

I've been putting away the idea of starting a server that would request archives from the Wayback Machine, parse text from the html documents, and create the world's-simplest-search-index i.e. just the location (document id) of every encountered word. There's a ton of problems with this "plan", but... having any search would be better than nothing?

Britain used to crank out popular music. Why that'd stop?

One theory is because the dole was ended. (Thank you Tatcher!) Aspiring pop stars generally started as struggling artists. Now they're just starving artists.

I assume that improving the safety net, eg UBI, will unlock amazing human potential. Give all those undiscovered geniuses a chance to follow their whim, vs grind away as fulfillment center wage slaves.
This is also valuable information when planning implementation of new features. To also address code quality and risks.
I'd prefer it written in Zig compared to Rust, C++, JavaScript, or Cobol ;)
> "maximal freedom of speech protects vulnerable people from erasure"

It's very easy to say things like this without fully comprehending all of the implications. Here's an example: Google restricted the usage of its own product, Google Maps, in an effort to halt the killing of Ukrainians by Russian armed forces, who were using Google Maps to launch their operations. This directly contradicts your claim.
> Can you imagine the infection risk?

Infection is not an automatic outcome. My grandma was an obstetric nurse, she witnessed surgeons in 1950s Southern Italy performing operations with rusty knives; and most patients would still be ok.

Sometimes we forget that the human race survived for thousands of years without the niceties of modern medicine. It's good to minimise risk, but in the end risk does not mean certainty of bad outcomes.
Why not?

Also, it’s a Show HN.

Seems reasonable to share alternatives.
Well its not his license.
I'm sympathetic to the argument you're making, but temper that position with the knowledge that the rates of homelessness aren't the same everywhere -- they're higher where housing is more expensive.

Most things aren't monocausal. Drug addiction causes people to make bad choices that result in loss of employment and isolation from more stable friends and family. If that happens to you in a place where you and all your addict buddies can pile into a trailer on a plot of land nobody cares about, then you won't be homeless. If it happens to you in the middle of a high-COL city like San Francisco, then you might find yourself on the street.

Does that mean "high housing prices" put you on the street or was it the result of your addiction?

Surely it's both, in some sense.
Yup.

Again I'm not supporting any use of substances, but I think everyone of any age or gender should be deciding for their own when it comes to their body.
Good read. I would especially want to know more about the unpredictability of the red code/unhealthy code. The difference between healthy code and red code regarding implementation time is astonishing.
Although one thing the author does owe the community is clarity in the license. The PR in question changed the named of the license from "Apache 2.0" to "Modified Apache." If you change the terms of a well known license, like Apache or MIT or whatever, for whatever reason, you should not mislead others into thinking it is an unmodified licensed.
Again you're confused. In most cases people are not getting banned/cancelled on social media for breaking an actually enforceable law in the legal sense. They are breaking a TOS put forth by the owner of that social media site. Twitter banning someone for inciting violence is no different than a mod banning someone on a web forum for disagreeing that ATI video cards are not the best. You can't call people the n-word on facebook. If you don't believe that is real I'm not sure I have the energy to expand on it for you (perhaps someone else can).

Have you been around public housing? The idea in theory is great, but in the US and in Puerto Rico it is a hub of drugs, alcohol, crime, government dependency, broken families, youth gangs and a slew of other things concentrated into a single area - destroys nearby culture and societal cohesiveness as well as corrupts large swathes of otherwise bright and successful young people that reside within them.

Arnold Schwarzenegger's message to the Russian people
Depends on you BMI.

If your BMI is high, then Keto + intermitten fasting + calorie deficit is your best bet (I use to be 300 pounds and lost 50 pounds in 3 months.)

If your BMI is low, then regular cardio (i.e. calorie deficit at the cost of increased hunger) is your best bet (how I got myself down to 200 pounds.)

If your lazy, then strength/weight training (i.e. increased muscle weight to replaced fat trading off with an increased metabolism) is your best bet (how I plan on getting to 150 pounds)
I think you are confusing it with the free software movement. Their idea of proprietary software being "evil" is why they don't get as much support as compared to open source.
I don’t disagree with this, but I do sense that “teaching people how to have balance in their lives” only goes so far.

We’ve been trying to teach people how to be healthy, physically fit, to avoid substance abuse, and to spend money wisely but it seems that those lessons just don’t stick for most of the population. At some point intervention is needed beyond just teaching people the right way to live.

But I’m also weary of this because regulations can often be poorly thought-out, heavy handed, or unintentionally crafted to make the problem even worse.
I want to defend this article since a lot of people in the comments are bashing it. There are a few facts here that point to housing prices as the primary driver in homelessness rates:
- as an example in the article, King County WA has a homelessness rate 5x of Miami-Dade County.
- Why is that? Florida is obviously not more generous with subsidies or financial help to homeless people, it’s not a climate where people can’t live outside, it doesn’t have way more mental health issues than Seattle
- if you look at the homelessness rates in cities they correspond strongly with rents. Mental illness rates don’t seem to change much between cities.

It’s true that the thing that causes people to become homeless is often a crisis of some kind - adiction or mental health, job loss, etc. What people in the comments here aren’t doing is modeling what happens in a place where housing is cheap vs housing is expensive. In a place where housing is cheap, addiction or mental health issues might mean you can keep living in your shitty apartment and making rent; life is less precarious. Mentally ill people talk to themselves in the comfort of their own home! Obviously there are people who are homeless even in low cost of living areas and they need support to find shelter, but if rich areas built enough housing to lower prices, some amount of the homelessness crisis would be solved “for free.”
Funny how the people who say this always seem to have the same political ideology, which they want to loudly push.
Letting doctors have fun under pressure, or ensuring good outcomes for patients? Mmmh, I wonder what we should choose as a society... /s
I think the issue was that words in the 'word-of-the-day' list are not repeated in the dictionary, so removing them from the 'word-of-the-day' list meant they were also no longer valid guesses.

Presumably this was pointed out to the NYT, and at some point they fixed the bug by adding any words removed from the 'word-of-the-day' list back into the valid guesses dictionary.
This is so obvious the real question is why this isn't the default everywhere.

Heating is one of the bigger challenges regarding the energy transition, and a big user of fossil gas (and sometimes oil, coal and talking about Finland even peat, which is really one of the dirtiest energy sources imaginable). Datacenters generate lots of "waste" heat.

It requires some planning, e.g. datacenters need to be built with connections to heat grids. But given how many new datacenters get built basically everywhere, this should be a no-brainer.
Having been working at large companies where I had the "chance" to inherit some legacy code, I cannot express how much I wished someone had known about the technical debt we faced with the old code. Spent months just fixing issues... I am very much delighted to see this can actually be measured: the sad fact is that managers don't really focus on tech debt up until the point it is out if control and one of the reasons is that it hasn't been tangible enough for them. Until now.

+1000. Almost everyone who's "singled" me out to be a mentor has been some greedy CS + Business grad who asks me mostly emotional or money-related questions that I essentially can't answer other than with "It depends on you and what you personally want."

This one guy specifically, who keeps reaching out to me, once kept me on a call for almost an hour basically asking me whether or not he should re-neg on an offer he signed ONE WEEK BEFORE THE JOB STARTED because he'd kept applying and got an offer somewhere else that paid more. I basically said "I mean if that's what you really want, you should do it, but be aware that the tech world is small and it's not going to look good" and he just kept trying to rationalize it because he'd clearly already made up his mind.

Another time, he sent me an email that started with "I just wanted to thank you for your help last time" but then immediately would delve into some other totally asinine quandary he'd gotten into because he had no integrity and/or trust in other people.

These people are impossible to help...

>> Russia took out Ukraine’s cell towers, which broke their own encrypted comms. They then switched to radio but the Ukrainians started flooding the channels with music. So now they’re on unencrypted personal phones.

> What's the best practices supposed to be for this kind of thing? Satellite phone?

The GP isn't internally consistent (how could they switch to "unencrypted personal phones" if they took out the cell towers), but my non-expert guess is the solution to their problem is probably better radios. It sounds like the Ukrainian jamming might be an amateur effort since it uses music, and I doubt a radio that uses frequency hopping would be very vulnerable to that.

I've also read reports that the Russians troops have been issued civilian radios from a Chinese manufacturer, so we can hope they were dumb enough to have their generals use similar equipment.

IIRC, I read somewhere that one of the weaknesses of the Russian BTG is that they have relied on local paramilitaries to provide security, and the commanders have to rely on cell phones to communicate with those groups.

Google had been building a massive office in central London so I assume they have a reasonable amount of interesting work going on there.

I did go there for a mobile conference a while back and they were not sparing any expense on the conference location and catering etc so I assume they are reasonably competitive. I haven't heard anything bad from the couple of people I know who were based at Google London (although I assume they're still home based, one of them lives near Milan!)

I'd like to posit that using fans getting emotionally distraught may in fact weaken your argument on the basis that a lot of behaviors that fall into that category are overwrought to the point of lashing out.

Gaimans point isn't that you can't feel disappointed, it's that when you try to treat your end of the parasocial relationship as a burden with the direct implication that GRRM directly and personally owes you that you are treating him like your bitch.

I wonder if there’s an opportunity here, for someone to put a frontend on torrents, charge $0.xx per show, and pass it along to the rights owner after taking y%.

With all the people saying they pirate for convenience, not for cost, maybe enough of them would pay to be “legal” to make it worthwhile for rights owners to collect that money.

Sure, but you can't make up your own definition of the Apache 2.0 license, which was the point of the original comment (and the PR in question).
A one-dimensional affine fit (usually called a linear fit) contains two parameters: a slope and an offset. Both have error bounds, and the offset error bounds on this data would be huge. Data presentation that is not intended to deceive would have shown the vertical spread of the estimate too. But that spread would have been so wide that it would reveal that the fit is terrible and that reasonable conclusions cannot be drawn from these model fits. This is not scientific work. It is ideological policy advocacy dressed up as data science.
