Ask HN: Any beginner-friendly, low-cost approach to building a Linux tablet?
I am looking to build/get a tablet running Linux for tinkering purpose. I would like to save my money on this project (no need for performance yet). A few approaches came up in my research:
- Buy a PineTab/RasPad/CutiePi.
- Buy a Chromebook tablet and install Linux on it.
- Buy an Android tablet and try to install another Linux distro on it. Ubuntu Touch/postmarketOS are some options that came up on my research.
- Buy a x86 (Intel Atom) device.

Is there any other approach that I am not aware of? Which would you guys recommend for a newbie?
I didn't argue that people cannot work together at scale. My argument, admittedly heavyhanded, is that organizing this work based on altruism does not work. It may work here and there, for a period of time, but it is not sustainable. Organizations that work are ones where people are paid for the work they do, not ones that pay people regardless of the work they do.

By the way, anti-ethical does not mean unethical. It means contrary to, in this case, contrary to human nature. I did not write that communes were anti-ethical. I wrote that they were anti-ethical to human nature, meaning they are contrary to human nature.

There's nothing unethical about voluntary communes, but there's plenty unethical about forcible ones.
Amazing!

Way back in the dark ages of the 1970s when I was an undergrad at a major midwestern university, I blew several hundred dollars for a brand new TI calculator. Alas, it’s use was limited to homework and we were told we could use pencil and paper or we could buy a slide rule. As some here have noted, slide rules helped develop one’s sense of magnitude and estimation. BTW, my old 50 year TI calculator still works.
I recently tried to boot and read a number of drives from 10 to 40(?) years old. (Pandemic. Was bored).

Our ECS containers all run continuously processing Kafka messages. Dev has variable throughput, but it's hundreds of messages per second at least. The containers all use between 256MB and 2048MB commits (they're stream processors, so they don't hammer the memory like a stateful monolithic service would).

My point was just that it doesn't have to cost over $1k on Amazon to run a combination of services which apparently CAN run in a private lab for $5/mo, however that is calculated. I can't run my full stack even without load (due to memory commit) on my 32GB, 3 year old Xeon workstation, and that would cost a lot more than $5/mo at any provider I am aware of.

> I found the AWS vs GPU cost comparison to be fun. 10x the cost of the hardware to run the collisions in the same time window. Crazy.

The real benefit of the AWS solution is that you could rent a large number of AWS nodes and run the calculations to completion right now if you wanted to. As in, literally tonight. And you wouldn’t have to source the hardware, assemble machines, install software, power it all, cool it, figure out all of the power complexities and so on.

Triggered my HN alert on horses. I ride seriously more days than not. It's a huge and rich topic, but short version is - there were no kings without horsemen. It's been the training for officer class for milennia because it uniquely inculcates a fearlessness and physicality and magnanimity that really does elevate and improve men by developing qualities that are transferrable to other beings in nature.

There are men, and there are horsemen. Even in ancient mythology, wisdom originated from the "centaurs," from the "east." It's not woo. I may even write a book on it. Mostly women ride in north america (outside western/rodeo), and the reasons for that are at least as controversial as this thread. Women who ride seriously are usually superior leaders as well, and it's just not something one can easily explain without experience in it.
Thanks for the link!

> None of the big sites are using it because it's frequently far more profitable to track people.

That doesn't explain it. If the only options on accessing one of the "big sites" were to see ads and be tracked, or to pay €200 / year and not be, it is pretty obvious that fewer users would opt out of the tracking than now (when it is free).

If a consent dialogue that required one more click for refusing than accepting is not legal, how can this be?

I'm quite familiar with Clever's work. I understand how it's put together at a pretty deep level - and it's still weird.

You can draw some parallels to the ARM Trusted Firmware interfaces if you squint hard enough, but it's still a really weird hardware layout for what it's commonly used for.

>Nestle used the same marketing techniques in every country. In the United States today approx. 70% of babies are fed entirely or partially using formula.

I have 4 kids, the oldest is 7. I can assure you, there was no nefarious formula marketing going on when my wife was pregnant.

Also, there is a really bug difference between what was being described in Africa and "a baby partially on formula". There were times when we leaned on formula - and it was beneficial. There are moms who are dependent on formula and it is a good thing.

But let's not confuse those positive sides of formula from Nestlé pushing formula in Africa.

New Science's Report on the NIH
I agree but to the parent's point, there is still something non-native about these terminal apps that essentially draw a full blown GUI and build a custom application in there.

What I want is terminal apps that seamlessly integrate with all the standard conventions of the terminal. Your example of history is a great one. Another is, wherever possible enabling things like vi-style navigation, minimal need to move your hands off the home row, seamless integration with command line tools (implementing a search function - don't! let me pipe it through my own one, eg: grep).

As soon as I have to hit function keys, manually navigate to control UI elements etc. it's just a really bad recreation of what we already have in the browser.

You are missing the point…

1.6kw is enough to power a drone for example.

If the receiver is compact enough and light enough then this for examples allows you to have a drone orbiting a surface warship pretty much indefinitely.

Just so you know there is far greater loss of power in extracting oil, transporting it, refining it and then transporting the refined fuel to its destination.

But it’s still better than not bothering with all of that just because the fuel allows you to power up thing that otherwise you won’t be able to do so.

Those are the options that have significant data.

No one knows how other models work. However, note that "stable" comes from the data. Maybe other models are stable, maybe they're not. Without data, it's simply unknown.
It isn't simple typosquatting because it can involve errors that aren't plausible typos (like "mic2osoft.com" for "microsoft.com"), or domains that a user would never enter manually (like "fbcdn.com" or "ytimg.com", which are used for content delivery at Facebook and YouTube, respectively).
If they can run a large enough subset of CSS that it becomes a good enough replacement, that would be a major win if its footprint is still much smaller than Electron at that point.
I think your examples agree with my point: You found minimal-time solutions that haven't caused continuous suffering afterwards, and can be easily removed when the root cause is fixed. That's a good result.

Someone that can crack cryptocurrency needs to figure out how to extract value without spooking the entire market into collapsing.

> Hypothetically some simple restrictions for variable font sizes could keep the simplicity of TUI while also empowering the UX.

The only way variable font sizes work without being isomorphic to a GUI is if the sizes are a series of power-of-N multiples of some base size for some integer N. (Realistically, N=2 is the most likely, though N=3 might sometimes make sense.)

The reason for power of N is that it assures that any set of available sizes used still fit on a grid of the smallest size actually used.

I'm going insane reading these replies and seeing not a single mention of DeFi. It's the fastest growing startup sector maybe of all time, going from nothing to half a trillion dollars in 3 years and yet somehow HN has completely missed the boat and still thinks nothing is being built on blockchains.

I guess all the crypto folk got sick of the pessimism on here and went to build with more optimistic open minded communities.
Where did you get that number, out of curiosity. Google's cloud storage is 2 cents per gb per month and backblaze b2 is $0.005 p/ gb per month. I understand in perpetuity is more expensive but why does it cap out as opposed to being a yearly price per gb (maybe if you assume hard drive storage will decrease at a similar rate?)

Quick envelope math, if they were using backblaze pricing, $5 would give a gb 83 years of storage. But it's unclear if backblaze is actually regionally duplicated

With this primitive type of system, pseudorandom is your best chance to get accurate correlation. You want each burst to differ in as many of the positions for maximum discrimination. If you're just incrementing, every other pair of messages will differ by just 1 bit, meaning it's difficult to tell them apart in a noisy situation.

Edit: Also this circuit is simpler than an adder, since there's no carry
“Humans Are Not Smart Enough to Have Ideas That Lie Beyond Challenge and Debate”
I’ve been doing something similar. After losing some important personal files back in the early 1990s due to floppies that failed, and hearing a lot of stories then about people losing data in hard disk crashes, I got paranoid about my personal archives and started backing them all up systematically and redundantly to the latest media (CD-R, DVD-R, etc.).

My strategy changed, though, with the arrival of cloud storage. Now I have all of my files—about a terabyte and a half—synced to multiple computers through Dropbox, and I back up each of those computers to an offline hard disk every ten days or so. My main computer is also backed up continuously to an external hard disk.

File formats are a different problem. Until around the end of the 1990s, I used a series of different word processor, spreadsheet, page layout, email, and other programs, all for the Macintosh, and I can no longer open a lot of those files. In more recent years, file formats seem to have become more stable, and I have tried to be careful to use formats that seem likely to survive as long as I will—docx, odt, mp3, pdf, jpeg, and especially txt.
