Why do you think there's such thing as "real price of the house"? I've sold a house recently. I had 4 offers, all for different prices. Which one of them were "real"? Should I have rejected the highest offer because it's "unreal"? Should I be forced to accept the lowest price - I am sure the highest buyer would appreciate to pay less? Why?

And BTW I also bought a house before (no wonder, since I am not that handy, to sell a house I had to buy it first ;) - and if you hire RE agent, which at least in the US most people do, and they are worth anything, they'd get you at least the rough information on how high you should go, and sometimes even the exact numbers. There were situations where we knew exactly how high the highest bid is, and more when we had decent idea if not exact figure. So it wasn't exactly blind.
Biden says Russia is committing 'genocide' in Ukraine -first time he has done so
This reminds me of the What's New and What's Cool buttons at the top of old-school Netscape.
The position was a paid one. I suppose the offer to keep it open by volunteering would have been worked around their class schedule and be at a reduced level of service compared to before. Still, it would have been open.

There's Endo, which does the loading/importing and dependency resolution. It doesn't have a default user experience at this point, but it creates compartments for packages and runs.

Getting permissions involved will require mapping them to packages in a policy file and there you go - an environment where you can use packages and they can't surprise you with data exfiltration etc.
They will often care about getting you promoted if you are interested (because # of employees promoted or at X level is one of their promotion metrics), but that is a far cry from maximizing your potential.

If memory serves - I have never put it to the test - my HZJ78 Land Cruiser owner's manual says wading depth is 700mm (doors closed), 875mm (doors open) - presumably the added depth with doors open is down to the reduced buoyancy.

Part of me really wants to try it out once, though.
Yeah it's pretty bad.

To enter password via keyboard/paste: right click password element -> inspect -> remove the `readonly="readonly"` attribute.
I've joined such "boring" companies before. Using SOAP instead of JSON/REST. Using email attachments for source control. Having to download every new version of a dependency and attaching it with Eclipse, instead of it auto downloading when I update the version number.

Also my grandma used to have gas lighting and wells. That was fun, but I can't go back to that.

I think people just don't like the uncertainty with new tech, but the old ones can be uncertain too.
Only time I hosed out a car is my uncle's car when it ended up in the ocean. Was low-tide and tons of seagrass on the boat launch. Lost traction and just slowly slid all the way into the ocean. Actually turned out OK after a serious fresh-water bath and carefully drying out everything.

Hosing out a car under normal circumstances is insane. I recently worked on a Dodge 12V diesel 1994 truck. Removed all interior carpet and WIPED out all the nastiness and vacuumed up the bits etc. Got it down to the metal and really nice and clean. Then layered up on Dynamat in prep for installing a high-end sound system and got a great result.

Unless you've destroyed the vehicle anyway by dipping it in sea-water, don't hose out your car.

A really great check to do if you're buying used is to look under the driver's seat for rust. It indicates flooding. In the case of pickups, it means they either submerged it or used it as a mudder. Red flag. Walk away.
That's not that simple, actually. Drain holes by themselves are going to allow moisture in to the car as well, and being holes the edges will need to be protected, usually drain holes will have some rubber insert for that. But then they are no longer flush, so some water will pool. I've welded plenty of car bottoms where moisture had done a very thorough job of rusting things out, drain holes are typically a fantastic way to get a problem, rarely a way to solve a problem.

Some convertibles have this done the right way, but there the whole car is designed from the ground up for this, and that includes the upholstery, the electronics placement, the way the cables are routed and so on. If that isn't the case your best bet is to keep moisture and fluids on the other side of the bodywork.
Sibling comment has some evidence to the contrary but I've always thought of it as a Java marketing term.

It lets you write generic classes e.g. "I can write a generic container class that automatically works for any contained type". It's imprecise (you can describe lots of programming language features as enabling "genericity") but I think it makes sense as a descriptive term.
Honda described the element as having an easy to wipe down utility floor, and waterproof seat fabric. I think somewhere along the line that merged into waterproof floor in peoples minds.

Isn't that only for switching? Do you use it to route, cross-vlan or similar?
Why is it hard to compete with a charity - which by definition doesn't have access to capital in the way that a commercial firm has?

Maybe RPi just knew what their market needed and delivered it very effectively?
Once you've gone the container route you no longer even need to think about virtual servers. You can just deploy it to a container service, like ECS.
Nice article, but wrong title: indoor climate is a thing, indoor tech to reach certain climate conditions is another.

Personally in term of indoor climate I noticed:

- difference in humidity, older houses tend to be humid, new ones a bit dry

- difference in air quality thanks to ventilation, that's specially when I wake up in the morning or someone smoke etc

In architectural evolution terms:

- depending on the latitude much bigger windows

- disappeared the concept of a separate kitchen, now a single room with the salon in most cases

- differently designed bathrooms

- more sliding doors and suspended things
The alternative is a 0.1-1% money market fund. So getting $50/year vs $1 isn’t a huge amount, but it’s something.

Since you, hopefully, don’t ever use your emergency fund, adding $1000 a year for decades adds up.

Of course rates won’t always be this high for I-bonds and so low for MMA, but you get the idea.
> You have to login to some docker repository anyways and know the series of commands to actually run it. Cloning a repo and running a shell script is probably a lot easier and faster than that.

In isolation, yes. But if, for instance, you're already running a container orchestration tool with hundreds of containers, and have CI/CD pipelines already set up to do all of that, it's easier just to tack on another container.
This is why "kind of" is such a popular caveat.
I like reading reviews from film critics, they often pick up on things I don't, and enrich my perspective on the movies, even if I don't feel the same as they do.

That’s blasphemy right there.

Of vehicles designed by Boomers for millennials that ended up only being bought by Boomers, since discontinued for no good reason.

Honda’s major sin here was not updating it with modern electronics or a more efficient engine.

It is smaller than the current CR-V.

Such a shame.

That was a Civic... and that reference is in pretty poor taste.
Also, I saw an assumption about financial investment being a moral positive slip in there. I've become less convinced of this recently.

At the bottom of an industrial, technological, geographic, or demographic S-curve, opportunities are plentiful to forego consumption today in order to create wealth tomorrow. Investment is useful. Rates of return are positive, incentivizing it. Cool. What happens at the top of the S-curve, though? Those opportunities dry up, relative to available capital. There's nothing inherently bad about this. Quite the opposite, it's a good thing! "Our work here is done." It's a big problem if you make your money by investing, though, and everyone at the top of the social pyramid does, so they exercise their immense political power (they're the top of the pyramid, remember) to ensure that the "growth" continues at all costs. It doesn't matter if it's artificial growth, it doesn't matter if it comes at greater expense to someone else, it doesn't matter if it causes social problems -- they keep pumping all the same because it is in their interest to do so, and they keep pumping until something bursts.

In this framing, encouraging financial investment is not an unqualified moral positive. If financial rates of return are low, I'd expect quite the opposite, with investment in financial instruments as a moral negative while investment in, say, better food or used cars would be net positives.

Morality aside, I'd also expect this dynamic to be reflected in rates of return: if rich people can satisfy all of the market demand for financial investment, the best rates of return will be in non-financialized investments, like buying a new used car to replace an increasingly expensive clunker.
> At least in the 90's, most movies were around 90 minutes. Nowadays, if it's less than 2.5 hours, it's a minor miracle.

I didn't even notice this inflation in movie length until I went back to try to watch older 90 minute movies. They feel short now, almost unfulfilling. Gladiator (2000) at 2h35m feels like the right pace.

I think after Game of Thrones (ex the last 2 seasons), I'm used to more drawn out scenes and development
When people suggest using I bonds as emergency funds it's usually recommended in addition to at least a few thousand that remains in a savings/checking account for immediate withdrawal.
I think the new Defender is 900mm doors closed, which is pretty deep!
Well in the article he ended up compiling thttpd statically so he wouldn't have dependency conflicts if he ran it directly. Funny how there's overlap in docker solutions that solve different but related issues for non-docker deploys as well...
They did in fact update the engine (at least once). I tried finding one here in Europe but they are pretty much impossible to come by unless you want to import one from the USA which has a ton of problems for a car that is not officially carried here.
Oh well, too bad you still have to pay for those accidents through your insurance premium - thats how it works. The only difference is that you either pay it over tax or via a private business that will try everything to wiggle out of paying for your injuries.

How much choice and control do you really have by having a private insurance? If you get hit by a car on the street, your kid trips in the stairs, you walk into a wall and crack a rib, the difference between your and mine is that:
1) I don't have to think about what it will cost me
2) I don't have to fully understand every aspect of my insurance agreement in order to understand what I am entitled to
3) I don't have to fight a insurance company if they don't want to pay for it
4) I can just relax, have a beer, and know that I will be taken care of if something happens
> and I replied to that reply, concluding from it that you had no substantive material disagreements. If you're unsatisfied with this conclusion, please reply with, for each disagreement, a quote of the claim, what you believe to be wrong about that claim, and your evidence for your assertion that the claim is wrong, and I'll evaluate your evidence to see whether it convincingly supports your doubts.

My initial grievance is here:

>> (someone) The jump from "bioresearch lab" which to bioweapons. Making it sound as if there was something to "admit" in Ukraine having same labs as everyone has. Then you try to confuse it with bioweapons, anthrax attacks in America and completely irrelevant treaties about bioweapons.

> (me) Who is it that's actually doing the confusing here? It's certainly possible that Greenwald is dog-whistling "bioresearch lab" into "bioweapons", but is he actually doing that, and to a large degree (mostly, etc)?

Here one human is accusing another human (or several), whom he doesn't know, of speaking deliberately deceivingly, making ~invalid associations between things, etc - a not abnormal interpretation of this might be something like "this guy doesn't know what he's talking about, he's trying to tell a tall tale, he might even be a conspiracy theorist".

At the very least, there's little acknowledgement I see about the complexities and uncertainty involved. This is but one of my overall complaints about culture war arguments, people play so fast and loose with the truth. If there's a post about computing on HN, attention to detail and emphasis on correctness is bountiful and uncontroversial. But in a culture war conversation, I proclaim that the inverse is true - and, I also think this abstract phenomenon is a big deal in the big scheme of things.

> Indeed, and, this is extremely important: isn't it possible that you only perceive yourself to be in disagreement with what the original poster said, but in reality, you are in total agreement, and have no complaints or criticisms whatsoever? Furthermore, isn't it possible that you only _perceived_ yourself asking the questions you think you asked, and in reality, you did not ask them? Is this a possibility?

Of course, why not.

But you brought up solipsism earlier:

>> Just take it from an outside observer, you could stand a little introspection to apply some of the solipsistic philosophical musings to yourself.

Perhaps you cannot (or will not) think in these terms without falling into a state of solipsism (or impotency due to indecision, another common complaint), but it's certainly not necessary. It is possible to address these ideas as they are, and take them seriously (as opposed to representing that they are silly, woo woo, bad faith, whatever). Perhaps it is not possible in the mainstream, in 2022, but it is possible.
Well, the point about the party story is that it's incontrovertible. With the handling of the pandemic itself, the media could spin, smoosh and soft-pedal the facts to make Boris look 'Churchillian'. Since they're completely spineless, that's what they did.

Going to a party while a sizeable chunk of people have traumatic memories of doing hospital visits through zoom will make those people hate you, and it's not very easy to smoosh, spin, or soft-pedal. It's just infuriating, and because the trauma of the pandemic was fairly evenly distributed, it has infuriated a very broad scatter of people. Presumably, some of them work in the news. Some of them are in the conservative party, even.

I can sort of feel the fire in my belly over this one because I didn't get to visit my grandad before he died, nor a close family friend. My grandad had no funeral, and I missed the family friend's because of a positive covid test. I'm not a fan of Boris's politics, but the party thing definitely cuts in a different place. I expect there are a lot of people out there who will remember some genuinely hard moments, remember what Boris was doing at the same time, and feel deeply angry.
"Center" does not mean "rational" it just means "non-committal". Sometimes committing to certain viewpoints is rational, sometimes it is not.
Just a heads up, in future conversations you may want to mention the DSL part at the beginning. WebRTC over DSL is definitely not impossible, but you’re going to be dealing with whole classes of issues most WebRTC devs aren’t running into on a regular basis. It’s also unfortunately true that many modern use cases for WebRTC are only possible because cable, fiber, and 3G/4G/5G have increased the bandwidth available to most users. So it may be the case that what you’re looking for does not in fact exist.

But keep looking! Just make sure to mention that you’re targeting DSL so people know not to recommend things you’ve already ruled out.

It can get difficult in a hurry if the rusted out spots are near where wiring is sandwiched between the various metal parts. I've done my share of repairs like these and if you only end up doing what you think you'll be doing when you start the job then consider yourself lucky.

My needs are very basic, so I didn't give Sublime much of a look. I specifically wanted something macOS native, and CotEditor was one of the few, possibly the only, that supports Versions. It does everything I need it to.
The cool part about iMovie and Garageband is they're basically a more approachable UI layer to Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro. They share a lot of the same core code, and teach you the same concepts just without the fiddly pro bits.

I love that bifurcation because it really makes the pro apps more approachable without compromising their usefulness (pro apps require info density, consumer apps avoid it), and it allows their power be scaled down to iPhone and iPad.

I wish more software was made this way!
“The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far.“

This is somewhat like an inference from best estimate used to develop a plan and then disregard that and implement the plan. Why the design of your plan is important to get right, because it’s about to be thrown away. There is even a certain trauma or frustration with having to go backwards, unless you’re prepared for it. Have you pulled your hair out on being questioned all the time by passer bys: why are you doing that? Why don’t you do it this way? (Usually best translated as why aren’t you/why don’t you do it my way) By someone who has no conception of the system that produced the implementation plan? Because I am! Grrr! Or you core dump everything on them and you get: sorry I even asked. Or you go along with it only to find later there was a good reason you were doing it the original way and now there’s a lock on the crit path.

This is disregarding the times you’re the one who is wrong.

Which also hints at why logos is hard. Same with debugging. The sanctity of the system that produces the outcomes. Constantly having to remember details. What is happening? Why is it happening? How do you know? How can it be otherwise? Non technical people seem to be able to get away with the first idea that comes to mind, unexamined.

Frameworks, shortcuts, assumptions are developed only at some point to fail you and shoot you right back to first principles. Or you never leave them and the unconcerned dance circles around you. I heard you’ve been having trouble with your tps reports?

Lua indexes from 1 not 0! Are you kidding me!!!? ;_; I went through 5 Adams before I figured that out.

“Professor Henry Jones : Oh, yes. But I found the clues that will safely take us through them in the Chronicles of St. Anselm.
Indiana Jones : [pleased] Well, what are they?

Professor Henry Jones : I wrote them down in my diary so that I wouldn't have to remember.
Indiana Jones : [angry] Half the German Army's on our tail and you want me to go to Berlin? Into the lion's den?“

To extend further, is that why don’t touch my stapler? Get out of my chair?
Come to Southeast Asia if you care about all that. Well, pay is a lot lower, but there's less taxes, more sunlight, lots of old tech, and good cheap healthcare. Also plenty of beaches, islands, and water parks.
Everywhere? Lots of places have decided to basically ignore it but there's still hundreds of COVID deaths a day in the U.S, China has had Shanghai under lockdown for almost month, lots of 3rd world countries lack vaccines. It's not over by a long shot.
In brief, read 'for the public' rather than 'by the public'.

Another example - public houses (aka pubs) are generally for-profit private (or large chains may be public in the sense of being listed) companies that take your money in exchange for real ale and good food; not social housing!

The more confusing thing is that we now (see history in sibling comments) have 'private schools' too. What you call 'public' are 'state' schools here, or something more specific where it's implied ('grammar', 'comprehensive', 'academy').
I don't know for sure, but I assume that Apple's app was released as soon as the functionality was enabled on the relevant devices (Apple Watch 6 and 7). I don't think this is a case of 'Sherlocking'.
I found that it works to right-click the password field input, inspect and edit the html element, and paste my password from my password manager into the "value" property before submitting.

In my opinion the war is a success if Putin can get his hands on luhansk and donetsk. That's the only way this can end well for Russia. They take some more coal and oil territory, make a few billions of dollars more money and then go back to being a dormant threat and gas station for Europe. Who cares if you are ruining your country if you end up richer in the end?

If Putin actually wanted to get his hands on Ukraine to turn it into a puppet state or kick start a neo soviet union then he completely failed.
It's not online but a little bit of that initial work went into greppo.io. I was thinking more in terms of severless platforms and not dev tools in general. However the theme of my thinking is that I don't know if there is a biz model here. As an open source tool, for sure!
There is no perfect security, so it's always an assessment of are the increasing security measures worth the cost? Even a simple algo of (base password + hash(website_name)) prevents the most common issue of any site leaking your password to a black market password list that just attempts brute force on any of the passwords on said list. It would be much much rarer for you to be specifically targeted by seeing base_password_hash(Amazon) on a list and trying to reverse engineer your bank password from that.

IMO it seems more secure than entrusting everything to a centralized source (password manager) that can be compromised.

Web2's pervasive blind spot: governance
Our official "return to the office" date is very soon. Our second work site has been folded into the main site, and the cubicles in the main site have been reduced to half the size (in terms of square feet) they used to be, to more or less double the density.

Implementation of the changes had already started when COVID hit. People who have been to the office recently say things like, don't hit your knees where the PC is mounted.

I was fine with our (pretty standard sized) cubes before COVID. But I'm so glad we have the option to continue working from home now.
