>I'm confident that sustainable pine is being grown anywhere someone thinks they can turn a profit buying the land and then growing pine. After all, MDF and OSB are originally made from the scraps of these young pine anyway. Sustainably grown pine is hard to grow and mostly comes from the Southern US these days. I urge you to try to grow your own sustainable pine farm if you disagree.

I have land with pine on it, so does a colleague of mine It's a really good long term investment. Plant for $10K, harvest 30 years later for $1M+. I mean do you have land, or are you just hypothesizing? I suspect the latter.

>That's what I mean: ideology. It's "obvious everywhere you look". The flat-earthers say the same thing, along with the QAnon folks. "Trust your eyes not what the politicians say." These ideologies are seductively simple answers to complex questions. Whenever you dislike the quality of something, it's "chasing profits at the cost of quality." The explanation does not need to contend with different input goods, resource types, markets, or anything. No observations, other than personal dissatisfaction, are needed to make the conclusion stick.

If you can't attack the idea, attack the person. It's not my ideology, it's market forces. You haven't show any numbers, just hyperbole. Show me somewhere that the margin on particleboard is less or the same than the margin of hardwood of the same furniture type and it will be more convincing. Companies are motivated by profit, pure and simple. To deny this is to deny understanding of how companies work or their purpose for existence. If they can cut costs, they will. If you think they will never cut costs at the expense of quality, I'm not sure what world you live in. Granted, there are exceptions, but of course they haven't dropped in quality so those aren't the companies I'm talking about.

I don't think he's blaming HN to the point where he's shirking responsibility for what he did. I read this post as a clever way to get play on HN which will help him get some of his stars/watchers back.
It wasn't github. There was no API, and if there had been, I would have been ill advised to trust it.
It was good, but a lot of people didn't get to find that out because it cost money to play.

Good enough and free will beat out better and expensive almost every time (the key part being "good enough", which, granted, makes that rule someone circular ;) ).
This isn’t really a source though, it’s requiring the other commenter to prove the point you made.

Anecdotally, I know people who buy single family homes and rent them for profit. My 3 bed, 2 bath single-family home has a $3,000/monthly mortgage, I could easily rent it for more than $3,500 (closer to $4,000). Take out 10% for maintenance fees, and I net $200 a month.
Reminds me of the Aware of Tongue Peanuts cartoon strip from way back when.
Related is how both storage and processing is very cheap these days, and yet you don't see many ISPs providing an out of the box experience featuring a mini-NAS, Nextcloud server, e-mail server, website server (including a personal blog and a phpBB forum ?)... on their modem/router boxes !
Clearly that's not the only reason or gmail would have been a flop too. I actually think that marketing choice was the only reason they got as much initial traction as they did, without it I think most of HN would never have heard of Clubhouse, rather than that it would have been more successful.
> and offered GitHub money to help

It's not like they can just run a few SQL queries on prod and have the author PayPal them 10$.

They need to create a plan, cost estimate, risk assessment, get management/qa/security/SRE/... approvals, write the code, documentation, reviews, tests, run on prod, create invoice, etc. This means 10-20 people work for 1-2 days. I doubt that the author is willing to pay 20000-60000$ for this.
Hahaha, no it does not. I joined my current place of work a little bit before another new hire, an attractive blonde woman. Nobody gave a fuck about me, I had to walk around and actively introduce myself and try to make friends, whereas she had a literal stream of dudes visiting her office the first week.

I made a joke about this once to her and she rolled her eyes and said it was really annoying, but it did help her get up to speed very quickly on the whose-who and what their roles were. To this day her network is much bigger than mine.

I guess you could argue that this happened because she's hot and not because she's a woman or something like that. My point is corporate environments are nowhere near equalizing.
It occurs to me that if your users are mindlessly doing repetitive things, no amount of "Are you sure?" or other hoop jumping is guaranteed to snap them out of it. Humans are pattern recognition machines.

GitHub may be better off preventing a repo with this size of a following from being made private without a support request or something requiring a second party to confirm.

Was thinking the same thing. It would also predict that animals with higher body fat would have less burials as well. Not sure if that could be checked.
I'm watching this thread with interest and will try to restate my understanding of GP's argument, by means of an example.

If a person's true skill is 5 on a 1-100 point scale, but the person is completely unaware of their true skill and will guess randomly, then their estimate will bias heavily in the direction of overestimating their skill, even if they were not intrinsically motivated to overestimate their skill, simply because far more of the available guesses are higher than their true ability.

In other words, the available probability space itself biases in the direction of overestimating their ability, for those people.

Is that right andersource?

Can people please stop posting this in every tinnitus thread? It’s an actual trigger that makes tinnitus worse for others. There’s nothing useful brought upon by falsely correlating suicidal and tinnitus, and in fact it creates some major negative externalities by making folks have massive tinnitus flare ups or even trigger suicidal ideation.
The article starts with the revolution/coup in 2014 but completely ignores the nearly 8 years in between. Yes western nations encouraged/sponsored Maidan, yes Poroshenko was a stooge.

But something else happened. Poroshenko ended up being less of a stooge as time went on and Zelenskiy is anything but. When Zelenskiy was elected some thought he was too pro-Russia, as a Jew he certainly didn't identify with groups like Azov or Right Sector, his first language is Russian, etc... A lot of commentators and even Putin seem to focus on 2014 and not more recent happenings in Ukraine.

Who wins? No one. Ukrainians are suffering yet another genocide because Russia is being spiteful that they can't conquer Ukraine (due to massive corruption killing their military capabilities). Of course it's not the first time in history (basically all Ukrainian history is powers invading back and forth) so hopefully a stronger Ukraine comes out of this.
Pretty much this. My TCL 4K HDR TV I bought two years ago for like 400 bucks has Roku in it and... I just ignore it. I use game mode on it and it's hooked up to my M1 Mac Mini all day long. I use Parsec when I'm lazy and use my desktop PC that way on it. Sometimes I'll Parsec the other way around from my PC to the Mac while it's displaying on the TV and there is absolutely zero latency that is perceivable when watching a video and the sound on in both places.

No ads ever bother me. No camera to scan me. It doesn't do anything. Even when I disabled my AD blocker on my router it didn't go ape.
Some of them used to make noise. Ours stopped for a while when you gave it a whack from above.
I had the same experience when visiting an anechoic chamber. I think the explanation is that without external stimuli, your brain cranks up the input gain to the max, at which point you begin to hear the ambient "neural noise" from your auditory circuitry. People taking DMT or ayahuasca also often experience an extremely high-pitched sound as the drug kicks in, which also suggests a neurological basis for the phenomenon.
What program was used for the diagrams?
That's only because they're using weak authentication. If they required users to use something like WebAuthn, the bot problems would be significantly easier to deal with.
I find Coc.nvim plugins for neovim are virtually just as easy to set up as VS code plugins, VS code is a power hog and performs worse, and the vim bindings are rough around the edges with macros in particular. VS Code with a vim plugin is not a bad experience, but neovim+coc.nvim is just much snappier.
Group think is real, I have definitely entered consulting gigs in a new topic and asked questions that haven’t been asked before by a group working on something for a long time…
I do recommend that new users just use coc.nvim, but not exactly because of what you said.

Both coc.nvim and the built in LSP implementation use basically the same Language Servers, so whatever updates happen to the server will benefit either approach.

However, coc.nvim DOES have a large community that has built a neatly packaged LSP client framework (and many other tie-ins like completion, snippets, formatting, and things like auto-pairs) that is a much more cohesive experience. The built in LSP is best at providing a solid baseline client for those language servers if you really want to tweak everything to exactly how you want it.

If you like that approach where you don't want to configure everything yourself, coc.nvim is probably the "superior" approach for you.

If you have ever said the word "bloat" unironically on your computer with 64G of RAM, built in might be for you.
I don't think it's even remotely likely the kernel will end up supporting Cargo in any form.

As said in the article, "the world is changing". However, the way the world is changing is that more and more people are aware of supply-chain attacks. While I acknowledge that Cargo isn't npm, it is still the case that of all the software that can not afford to just sorta grab things from the internet, the Linux kernel is arguably #1, straight up. There is no chance that the kernel developers are ever going to accept "well, I wanted some async stuff so I grabbed a v0.5.23 of a package that I found appealing". Even if they pull some stuff in, it will be through a review process and it won't be through cargo in general.

The argument against cargo or any equivalent being used in the kernel is stronger today than it was 10 years ago, and the first derivative is also positive. Probably the second one too, honestly. This isn't about kernel developers being old fogey sticks in the mud, this is about the kernel being such a high-assurance environment, the biggest, fattest target in the world, that things that make sense for most software packages don't make sense for it. And it has nothing to do with cargo specifically or Rust. It's just that the entire workflow afforded by cargo, or npm, or go modules, or the half-dozen Python package managers, or anything else resembling those things is simply not appropriate for the Linux kernel. The only way to make such a thing work would be to pin the versions so hard that you're effectively only using them as a downloader, not a package manager, and you might as well just have vendored code in the kernel repo anyhow.
Another commenter made this observation, but his comment was deleted by HN moderators.

I sure hope Elon Musk takes over Twitter so we will not need HN to have an open conversation.
If you’re completely clueless then hire a great sales rep immediately.
Good sales reps have a process. They don’t make excuses and they keep a healthy dose of realism while staying positive.
These sound like unicorn traits to some but they aren’t. A great sales rep will know early on if a deal is qualified, and will only inform you of the ones that can realistically close.
As for learning sales. As a founder you are already a sales person wether you like it or not. You would do well to hire a good sales director and shadow them on calls. Specifically spend time on discovery and understand why it’s critical to a sales process. Maybe you can even send some cold emails on behalf of your sales director to get a feel for with SDRs go through.
The more empathy you can build for the sales process the better off you will be in hiring and developing such an org.

>he was not sufficiently warned of the consequences

Like most computer warnings it was overly generic, it warned there are potential consequences, but never warned of the actual consequences. If the warning had said hey this is going to effect 55K stars and watchers, he would have known he was in the wrong spot.

The problem is if you expect a generic warning then a generic warning doesn't actually warn. A specific warning is more likely to, but not guarantied to catch attention.
I agree. And I also think that for the same reasons, the psychiatry system, at least the parts that I was exposed to, is abysmal. They prescribe according to whatever scriptbook is en vogue at the jurisdiction and the substances themselves are very far from proven - and also the part where you're guided on the trip you're having can be almost completely missing. There's a huge room for improvement in this area.
Hate to sound dismissive but I've worked with people who can't communicate very well unless it's in person. Writing/reading causes a lot of misunderstandings for them due to comprehension or patience, and video calls don't seem to work very well for them as they are typical scheduled and have less body language.

This is fine, but I do disagree with those people saying "remote doesn't work" for startups, etc. It's just them.
So it's fine to just take another one then?

I had odd bouts of tinitus as a teenager, like you, no obvious causes. It went away and came back with a vengence about 15 years ago. That lasted a year or so but over time it's become more of a minor irritation than a major handicap. I guess, my brain has trained itself to deal with it?

The only tip I can give you is to always have some kind of background sound that you can focus on rather than the buzzing in your own head.

Also, avoid earplugs and headphones, they just create a wierd feedback loop.
Of course both the TV and media player need to be ethernet-over-HDMI enabled as well. And if you want to be able to take advantage of all the latest visual and audio advancements, you'll probably need to use one of the latest cables that comes with ethernet-over-HDMI.

Is it possible to get one of the latest HDMI cables without ethernet? Are there ways to cut ethernet-over-HDMI off at the media device?

I know that there might be things that can be done through the network or at the router (PiHole,etc), but I'm wondering specifically about this gaping hole through HDMI.

(as I type this, I now remember that my router/Orbi can physically block individual devices)

Of course the next big issue will be when the TVs come with their own internet connection. I recall this is already happening with some HiSense TVs that come with 5g. I guess at this point we'll be forced to open these things up and disconnect the antenna.
To be fair, in the random data, you have people of all actual skill levels estimating their ability at 0.

That's going to skew the data somewhat because people don't work that way. While you will likely have some zeros, I wouldn't expect any from the skilled population and I'd expect fewer from the rest of the population.

That's going to make the "difference in estimation" line higher overall, which would make it intersect higher and more to the right.
My prediction is he will not buy Twitter and he is using the hype around his announcement to make a point about social media censorship and algorithmic control of engagement. Whether he will sell his stake or not is still unclear but I think he will if the price goes up.

> We pushed Russia to the breaking point, and now we get to see what plays out.

I wish this argument would just die - it's all on Russia. No one has forced them to have imaginary "safety guarantees" or influence spheres. What people in the west doesn't seem to understand is that nothing has changed in terms of Russian politics since the WW2 - it's the continuation of the same politics of threats of aggression and playing the imaginary victim card and imperialistic politics.

> The Russians have done a surprising and smart thing, which shows that someone in Moscow has the light on still. They've pulled out of the north and completely changed strategy

They were unable to effectively resupply troops in the North, who were out of food, low on fuel, and lacking supply trucks. Ukranians blew up bridges and local railroads and attacked their lines of supply and communication. Belorussians kept sabotaging rail lines. Russians never got control of large cities where major roads pass, and couldn’t control the airport enough to fly in supplies. At the point they retreated they had been completely stuck with no progress for more than a week, and it was only a matter of time before they were surrounded.

They chose (mostly) orderly retreat over waiting a few more weeks and getting routed and destroyed.
Idempotence is a very useful property to have in a distributed system. This is because most distributed systems are (by definition) not atomic wrt state transitions. For example, it is not cheap to guarantee exactly once delivery over an event bus. If you can build in idempotence, your gonna have a much easier time adapting to changing business requirements
I was wrong elsewhere in this discussion. I now think the problem isn't that the original code breaks any rules/promises, but that the transformation to the second version of the code is not valid.

> So, which of the optimizations is the wrong one?

In the original function, the code compares addresses but only modifies through `x`. But since it's a static function, and since it can see all the call sites, it eliminates a test it can prove is always true. So far so good.

However, it's not valid to keep the `restrict` declarations after that rewrite. It changed a modification through `x` to a modification through `y`, so that clearly violates the promise.
Vim added a debugger plugin that is installed by default called termdebug.

Darn yes. I built a web based RSS Feed Reader that can also subscribe to e-mail newsletter. It is really just a stream. No nagging, if there are unread messages. Categorisation and search are only second class citizens.

I found that everything else will overwelm me time and time again.

I really wanted to publish it for others to use. Without any serious subscription or payments, maybe patreon.

The "problem" is, that I'm based in germany and you can't just have a website, that integrates other peoples content without having a good lawyer, I guess.

Plus it would be a really good idea to block any scripts that feed creators put in their stuff to f*ck with other peoples systems. But you're not allowed to change feed content, or at least that might be a concern.
Not to speak of if people subscribe to illegal stuff and you show it on your site (even only to them), maybe?

Too much uncertainty, so I'm nearly sure I will stay to be the only citizen in this neighbourhood.
