Yes. Exactly. That’s what open source is. Nobody is obliged to keep providing you with something you’ve been using.

I personally really like the new editing experience. And had been wondering why WP was so behind the times for half a decade now.
Yes, woops, fixed.
He's not doing it for free. He has a flat rate to do a certain job. I'm guessing his fee wasn't exactly low for a week of work either (50-100k+?). It removes ambiguity and sounds like a method that kept him quite busy at the time.

I'm watching the Kanye doc on Netflix right now and there is a discussion where someone wanted him to give them beats for points. He responded hell no wanted his fee (30-50k) instead. Not every person he worked with was JayZ, so getting paid well up front was a way to remove risk.
Not the answer you might want to hear… but books are usually not a good approach for this kind of topic as

- you will need to look at every single advice with distance and criticism to see if it fits your kid

- there will be hundreds of little things you will have to find by yourself to make it work that won’t be in the book you read.

At the end of the day, I’m not sure parenting books help more than random discussions from other parents who’ll give hint about stuff they are trying. I remember reading a lot about “free range” parenting for instance, and it was basically wasted time. The general idea in itself is extremely valuable, the details don’t matter at all, as every parent will have to rethink it all by themselves to make it work in their specific setting.
For all the many flaws that the USA has[0] there is a massive difference between the cultural imperialism of megacorporations and hard-power imperialism of, say, invading Vietnam.

For all that Facebook and Google and the NSA know so much about us that they’d make the Stasi drool with envy, they’re not the Stasi.

For all that Facebook is getting blamed for enabling and distributing the rhetoric that led to the Rohingya genocide in Myanmar, that persecution predates the birth of Zuckerberg, and Facebook didn’t have any triggers to pull or boots to put on the ground.

[0] and as a non-American, I’d add to the Tribune list with things that most Americans I’ve spoken with do not even acknowledge, and of those who do acknowledge them, most favour.
> My goal was to allow authors to automatically generate new creative text based on text they had written so far (basically a literary autocomplete). (...) The feedback I received was generally favorable, and people thought of my product as a cool gadget. But potentially paying for it? Nah. It turned out that writers actually like to write themselves

Here's what I would pay for: something that would generate a structure / a detailed lists of scenes, given a list of characters and a theme, or the beginning of the text, or maybe from scratch.

I'm an amateur writer, self-published my first novel last year, which is doing reasonably well. I like to write scenes, dialogue, interactions, and given a scene context, can sometimes write fast.

But I have a hard time coming up with what to write, what scene to write, what comes next. I generally know where the whole story is going and how it's going to end, but what needs to be written now, I don't know.

I suspect many authors are in the same situation.
Now the question is does the exponential growth of renewables allows for stopping CO2 emissions before they undo our civilization? I have not seen any credible analysis that concludes that. Only possible with major downgrade of our lifestyle. The copper shortage is only one of the bottlenecks.
I'm planning/trying to restart my personal page/blog thing for a while now, and was considering good ole' Wordpress.com for some time, and looked to the plans and so on.

Today's news just removed that option again. Internet is dividing further. Either you overpay for the convenience or self-host the whole stack yourself. Second one, backed by a static page generator looks more and more enticing now.
Moving the goal post will only result in the end of this debate.
... hesitantly raises his hand

Back in ... 1991? I did use the C version of the Simplex Method almost straight from the book. I needed a concise linear programming optimization module that would be called in the middle of a not-really-concise production programming system handling (automotive) engines and gearboxes production for a couple of FIAT plants.

Basically a short-period scheduler to decide what to produce (slave to an immense system running on IBM mainframes; COBOL, again).

So I quickly put together the C version (with minimal modifications) and it chugged along happily on a VAX for at least a decade.
Others have said, and it’s a good point, that covid and wfh broke people’s habits and enforced time to stop and think. This nudge allowed all those thinking of pulling the plug to consider it. All those dissatisfied with their current situation to determine what to do next. There wasn’t enough “sameness” to keep doing the same thing for people.

Whether this was moving or changing jobs or changing relationships or … being unable to keep doing X and having to do Y (or even Y and Z) provided perspective on X. Thus, we can argue that the pandemic was the final trigger not the first one.
It's really hard finding Greek songs on Spotify for this reason. There are many ways to transliterate (eg "ευχή" can be "efhi", "euxi", and all the combinations thereof, and that's just with two ambiguous letters) and no names are in Greek, so it's basically a game of trying to guess the transliteration for the track you want.
Pointing people to one possible alternative if they just want to blog: use a static site generator.

My company created a static site generator which pulls content from notion. You get the WYSIWYG editing of notion, with the speed and simplicity of a static site. You just have to find a place for static site hosting - github pages, firebase, netlify, etc. There are plenty out there.

Most of the article was the author writing about her own personal experience, and she appears to have but one child, a daughter. The other examples seemed coincidentally (to me) also to be about daughters. So I suppose no.

But if it makes you feel better, I have a son whom we raised this way and he is the same. This was also how it worked at school, at least in Vorschule and Grundschule. That could be a German cultural thing — the US seems to have that kind of thing backwards.
You should. You're at a disadvantage if you don't, because everybody else sure does.
This is just what I’ve heard so take with a grain of salt, but as I understand it sqlite is “mostly” safe to use concurrently. There are situations where it doesn’t behave correctly under concurrent load, the one I’ve heard about being when the sqlite is on a network-mounted drive. I’d love to hear from someone who knows more though.
So I know you can add Blade or Twig templates on top of WordPress to at least make your own code contribution a bit better (e.g. at least some automatic escaping, saner templates), but at what point is it a lost cause and it's time to move to something with a better foundation? I've seen people use WordPress as a headless CMS but I don't think the admin interface is particular good either.

> The problem is the knowledge and experience gap that is between a person, who can write a secure and useful plugin and a person, who starts writing plugins, because they are a WP user and got some motivation to start with plugin writing. PHP does nothing to reduce that gap.

That's my feeling. Anybody used to working with secure and well written codebases with CD/CI, tests and just basic Git versioning will want to run away when they see how typical WordPress sites work under the hood.

The problem is IMHO not that things change, but that parents and teachers have difficulty adapting to that change and prepare their offspring for life. We are trying to establish a protected physical world that does not really teach you much about that "other" life and helps kids to develop resilience.
Parenting is “dedicating your whole life” for some period of time. If you manage to get some of the fundamentals right and are lucky then more of that period can be fun.
This sounds like Montessori. It involves observing the child, making sure they have appropriate tools for their size and ability, taking the time to slowly tech them everything you think is obvious, etc.
What I’m saying is our Bloomberg bill went from $58,000 per month to the minimum usage for Bloomberg of $1,000 per month.

Our new provider was about $10,000 per month.
I also built something similar once when I needed something like ngrok but wanted to use open source:

https://github.com/tweedegolf/henk

It has a very similar approach, but uses about a hundred lines of Go instead of nginx. It's based on unix sockets created by SSH reverse tunneling, whose names are used to select the desired subdomain. This makes it possible to add more reverse proxies with just an ssh command, without changing anything on the server. It's also small enough that it's easy to add custom logic such as request logging.

> This is an unreasonable standard when you do not know in advance how big the output is.

Why is that unreasonable?

Let us say a single job outputs 10% of the free space. As long as you run fewer than 10 jobs in parallel, GNU paralel can run forever, because it spits out the output when a job is done and then frees up the space for this job, while starting the next one.

A simple example:

yes 1000000 | parallel -j10 seq | pv >/dev/null

On my laptop I get 600 MB/s which would fill /tmp in a few minutes, and it does not.

When dealing with big data it is not uncommon that the total data piped between commands is way larger than the free space on /tmp (which is typically fast, where as free space on $HOME is slow - thus setting $TMPDIR to $HOME/tmp may slow down your job drastically).

If you only have 5 minutes, I hope you will use them on providing actual code to support your claim, that "The comparison is not very fair to modern day xargs."

If it takes longer than 5 minutes to code, I would say your use of "easy-ish" is unwarranted.

You leave me with the feeling that you have not thought this through and that the reason why you do not provide any code is because you are now realizing you are wrong, but you do not have the guts to admit so.

Prove me wrong by posting the code. It should be "easy-ish" :)

You can use this as the test case to implement:

yes 1000000 | parallel -kj10 "echo 'This is double spaced '{#}; seq {}" | pv >/dev/null
I think you are missing that const is insufficient for safe concurrency; it requires programmer discipline to ensure there are no shared mutable references.

Const also has no bearing on lifetimes. Constexpr/consteval do, but those objects always have static lifetime so it's sort of irrelevant.

My experience is that it is only safe to have one connection to a SQLite database.
Having multiple connections mostly works, however if the database is stored on a slow medium, such as an SD-card, concurrent queries will fail.
I agree. This sentencing and the implications of it are far more offensive to me than the tweet.

Things are more complex than Ukraine == Korea. Namely, Korea had enjoyed being under the protection of the US against its aggressive northern neighbor. Will the US also ensure Ukraine's protection against its aggressive Eastern neighbor? I doubt it.
It's a sleeve notes problem. Ideally you'd want a complete copy of all the info in the sleeve/inlay. This includes some combination of headline writer/composer, producer, conductor, headline performer, co-writers, arrangers, session players, engineer, studio, lyrics, and random sleeve notes/essay, possibly in multiple languages.

Per track.

Plus artwork. With credits.

Plus random thank-yous and special thank-yous to sponsors and other contributors.

The importance of each field varies with each project. For classical conductor showcase projects the conductor is the headliner. For classical composers, obviously it's the composer. For compilations it can be a concept like "Classical Chill" or "Early Music from the 15th Century." For pop projects it's usually the band/artist name. For movie tie-ins, it's the movie, or perhaps the franchise.

And so on.

You get all of this for free on CD/vinyl labels, and the fact that it's freeform doesn't matter because the sleeve artwork and visual placing of the elements make it clear who/what matters.

Trying to fit this into a single fixed metadata schema is madness. It can't be done.

This is one of those situations where trying to data-fy the information leads to huge loss of detail. You get some nominal (poor) searchability, but you give up a huge amount of interesting supporting information.

What the industry needs is a digital sleeve note standard which can handle all of this and more.

But metadata is designed for sales and stream tracking, not for user satisfaction. Which is why it's so bad at capturing what users want.
> I'm more than happy to spend 2-3 hours on a separate remote call with an individual

Bingo. I've been doing the same with new remote hires (especially jr). I try to block off a couple hours every other day that are 'open'. When they send their first few PRs, I'll call them and go over it which inevitable leads to lots of random questions about the code base.

Finally, I make it clear this time is open to them as long as it's needed.

My goal is to replicate the ability for someone to stop by my office. I think so far it's been ok.

> So given that everyone else treats LGBT as a group, and that everyone else treats them badly

Simply put: Nonsense

A bit more elaborate: some people have something against people who differ in some way, whether that be in their sexual orientation or handedness or skin colour or the language they speak or the food they eat or the god(s) they worship or the parties they vote for or the places they live or the clothes they wear. This has always been that way and will always be so. Most people harbour some preconceived ideas about those 'others' - yes, you do as well. In most liberal western societies these preconceived ideas are frowned upon by official institutions, especially when it concerns such ideas related to 'protected' identity categories like sexual orientation, race and religion. your statement regarding the supposed mistreatment of that group does not hold any water. It is a lie, an untruth, a distortion of the facts - unless you can prove your claim.

Can you prove it? Show us how your statement is true, in what way everyone treats gays, lesbians and bisexuals badly. Just saying this does not make it true, not even repeating it ad nauseam, not even when it is claimed to be true by academics from the grievance studies departments - especially not when claimed by those academics from those grievance studies departments since they are on an ideological mission.
> You build as much new housing as you can afford to, and let older housing filter down to "affordable" levels.

The question is what sort of housing you build. You have a piece of dirt ready to be developed or re-developed. You can put there a mansion which will house one family with enough garden to picnic a whole village and still have space to land a helicopter. Or you can build four detached homes with plenty of garden at the same place. Or you can build two 3-story buildings with 6 flats each and have space for a small comunal park between them.

And we can’t say that the market should figure out what kind of houses should be built, because we already have tax laws, and building codes, and etc which heavily influences what kind of building gets built. The question is not “should we put our finger on the scale” but “which direction should said finger push”?
It's annoying how the article doesn't straight up say what the Maya method is at the start.

I wouldn’t overfit on bullying. It’s a hazard to be taught, as is traffic, but hardly the dominant culture.

Having been a parent in multiple cultures / countries and talked a lot about parenting with family members in others, Americans seem to talk more than others about bullying yet tolerate it much more than most others.
Or we could just stop killing them with pesticides.
Yes, that often happens.

Perhaps you should look at the history and governments of Norway, Sweden, and Finland.

It was a very hard fight, with violence, but it was achieved.

We can also notice that the Nordics aren't exactly hotbeds of growth, although there seems to be no shortage of innovation there.

Yes, it is a damn hard balance to achieve, and harder to maintain.

Yes, many of the capitalists will happily turn towards fascist-like tendencies.

The key is to dial up the market regulation so that the excesses are curbed and to minimize (but not eliminate) inequality. Killing capitalism altogether by having the government own all the means of production is simply a recipe for disaster.

IMO, the Nordic model is really the most sustainable.
I recently found an example shell session in the documentation for mysqlimport that uses ed: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/8.0/en/mysqlimport.html
This is according to the teens themselves, but people still are hesitant to listen…
The problem is they lost the ability to just type as if it was all one document. Paragraphs are now widgets. Instead of dragging a widget into a document and having a paragraph wrap around it, you lay them all out on equal footing.

People really do not care whether they are react components or not - but they do care if it is difficult to just type in a paragraph.

Gutenberg does have potential, but they empowered widgets while making the core act of typing up a document more difficult. If they fix that, it has potential.
Ask HN: What's the best platform for technical writing in 2022?
Over the years I've been writing notes, documents, articles mainly for myself. But as I get older and further in my career I'm realizing there's probably value in sharing these with other folks...but I don't know the best avenue for doing this anymore. And selfishly wouldn't mind building up a bit of an audience for myself in the process.

Are personal blogs dead? Medium? Substack? Something else entirely?
Hmm, fail completely, or just block?

Free is never free but why does free have to go from quite non-shitty to shitty overnight for no discernible reason? The point is here that "just here to blog" bloggers like me have been able to pay WP to have a custom domain, some storage, some SEO and some SM tools managed by WP – and nothing else. But now, to point a custom domain at my WP site, I need to cough up $180/yr. It's not just the free plan shrinking further, a fact you're commenting on, but that the sole alternative plan lies at the other extreme.
Pretty sure they keep starting and stopped it.

Crushed under the weight of fan hype and expectations I suppose.
A lot of people would, and did, isolate even without being told too until they were vaccinated. They would have done so out of fear. All that governments really did by mandating lockdowns was enforce it on the part of the population that wouldn't do it with the hope that it would stop the spread of COVID. In some countries it worked, in others it didn't.

All this is to say there is no causal relationship between the government lockdowns (mandated at the state level in the USA, no?) and the CDC reporting on mental health. Both occured independently. There are however plenty of plausible arguments to make for lockdowns being causal on mental health though.
Yea, it's called "Industridoktorand" and many of the larger engineering/tech companies (say 1k+ employees) I've been involved with had 1 or 2 people doing it.
That's kind of expected, I think. Due to its design, SQLite relies on filesystem semantics to provide atomicity. If the filesystem doesn't provide the semantics, it makes sense that atomicity will fail.

I'm more asking whether it's still unsafe to use in a filesystem that DOES provide those semantics.
One of the reasons is people become less competent in gauging minds …
Social media has been around since the early 2000s, over 20 years, and easily accessible porn has been around slightly longer. So, no, I am not convinced this is it. Smartphones on the other hand is a possible culprit.
It means continue to grow your experience either wider or deeper or both. You don't have do something completely different each year, but you should be thinking about how to expand your skillset. Unfortunately, this oftentimes means changing jobs, but not always.

An example of getting deeper if you're a Java programmer would be to really learn all the collections available (beyond ArrayList and HashMap) and when to use them. Wider would be to learn and improve on your SQL.
> My company created a static site generator which pulls content from notion.

What triggers the site to be rebuilt and deployed? This works well with how pages are usually created and edited? How about being able to preview what the deploy will look like before publishing? I haven't used Notion much btw.
From experience, I've also found the discussion here to often be constructive, but tends to be cut short by being flagged to death. For example, I see that your top comment already has been - which also stops the discussion below it from being visible to anyone who has 'showdead' set to the default.

> My own view is that this is actually something that the large majority of the population thinks a certain way about, but as usual in this day and age a very small minority of people dedicate their existence to 'activism' and cause the movement to seem larger than it is.

Agreed, but also that most people up until recently haven't really thought much about it at all. That the activism of this small minority is drawing more attention and scrutiny of late is probably a good thing in the long run, given all the harmful downstream effects of gender identity ideology, particularly on women and children.

I think this image post, from a radical feminist forum, makes this point well (with examples): https://ovarit.com/o/Radfemmery/67892/listen-to-tims
It’s because of the time base. You need a diverse supply because you have a diverse candidate pool (both people with money, not all who feel like moving right now, and people without, who desperately do).

Also inexpensive housing is cheaper to build than high end housing so there’s more bang for the buck (more impact on the housing shortage/$) than building the same number of high end homes.
There is a middle ground, generate the static site content yourself and then there are plenty of providers who will host your static content for free and even let you use your own domain name. Although I'm not sure why I'm telling you this when the website in your HN "about" already uses Jekyll.
