In combination with the pricing... I feel like mechanical drives in particular are getting ridiculously large, too.

I have a large collection of 5TB drives, and it's honestly already at the point where instead of going larger, I'd simply get more drives.

Peaking at ~200MB/s writes means that making practical use of this much data is getting more and more specific (eg: archival). It can make more sense to build an array of smaller drives to get the same capacity but actually useful performance.
Does anyone have any experience with the current version of OpenShot that they would like to share?

I have been using iMovie on the Mac to edit short educational and presentation videos, and I have been thinking of switching to something with more features and flexibility. I downloaded DaVinci Resolve a few days ago and was very impressed by the feature set, but the learning curve seems a bit high. I should note that I am not anything like a video-native person; even figuring out how to use iMovie was challenging for me at first.

Recent mentions of OpenShot on HN suggest mixed opinions [1].

USB-C hubs and my slow descent into madness

https://overengineer.dev/blog/2021/04/25/usb-c-hub-madness.h...

It was recently discussed on HN https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30911598

One interesting takeaway for me was that there are actually some quite cheap hubs available from AliExpress and the "branded" ones are essentially the same with a logo printed on (and hopefully some additional QA).

The cross-platform GUI toolkit I personally prefer is Qt. Bein' I'ma "Python guy" I tend to interact with Qt mainly via PyQt/PySide, but there's handy bindings for a ton of other cross-platform programming languages as well. I've also recently(ish) discovered and been thoroughly impressed by Will McGugan's "Rich" library and the "Textual" TUI library he built for it. Been sprucing up all my terminal output to be more modern using those two lately.

Curses is screen reader compatible!

JAWS might have dumped all their TUI accessibility features now that they think blind users should only use the GUI, but BRLTTY is based around the console. Orca does assume Gnome and/or a web browser, but it's no worse than usual with a console. (That is to say - I hate Orca, no matter where I'm using it.)

If you're making your own TUIs, there's a few things that curses sneaks in to make things a nicer experience. It uses the start of heading, start of text, file/group/record/unit separators from the invisible portion at the start of the ASCII table, which your sighted users can't see, but things like BRLTTY announce.

(Note: I don't use BRLTTY with an actual Braille display. I use it with espeak.)

For me, this was the 'whoa!' paragraph

"... in 2018, the ACLU spent $800,000 on a campaign ad for Stacey Abrams during her run for governor in Georgia and $1 million in an attack-ad campaign against Brett Kavanaugh during his Supreme Court confirmation hearings."

There's more of the same, but it's enough to get the picture.

That's all you need to know. The ACLU is not about fairness for everyone.
Eh. If they exchange one lawyer's time for $3.5 million in donations that will be used for all their other causes, that's actually a pretty good deal. (Or at least would be if Heard paid up, which she apparently didn't.)

We're on a site about tech startups, reading an article about tax avoidance by a tech startup and many people on the board are saying they want to do that tax avoidance. I don't think I have to worry that I cherry picked the type of company as a tech startup.

> How many don't pay local property, income, unemployment, and other taxes?

Well, we're only talking about the founders/investors paying taxes (cause this is referencing their capital gains). So, the founders wouldn't pay local property (in the low-income district they commute to) or unemployment taxes at all, and the vast majority of their income comes from capital gains, which this is avoiding, so yeah, they don't really pay that either.
So what you're saying is we need FoundationDB-like layers on top of the fundamental data store? :D

I didn't know a lick of programming, but just knowing how to trace the 0's and 1's through the hardware greatly boosted my confidence in interacting with the computer.

No matter what program or language got put in front of me, I knew that something on a disk or in memory, or in some storage somewhere was telling the computer to do it.

Then I set out to understand the people who wrote those things and what they set out to do.

Then I realized I probably hated most of you. Because you went out of the way to make having my computer do what I wanted harder.

You could silence tons of scientific studies with this sort of broad rejection of data collection simply because you deem a subset of the group 'vulnerable' (including just as many studies that benefit these groups). It could be applied in many other ways beyond state prisons.

> the US version of the song contest

To no-one's surprise, they didn't capture the true genius of ESC, because they focused on the contest part, and they had a single body that evaluated all contestants. No, that's not what it's about.

Every country participating in ESC selects their contestant any way they want, without oversight or common rules or anything. This leads to the following:

1) Occasionally, a country will send a bat-shit crazy contestant.

2) For a given year, you have no idea which countries are sending serious contestants, and which countries are sending something bat-shit crazy.

3) Occasionally, a bat-shit crazy contestant wins.

Anyone can do a competition between competent, serious, contestant. Whatever. It's the crazy that gets people hooked on it.

Imagine the Olympics, but a few countries just say "fuck this shit" and send a team of monkeys in lycra instead of a team of athletes. Sometimes the monkeys win. That's Eurovision!
Unity stock tanks 28% as outlook falls short of expectations
Couple comments upon looking at the actual code:

- You can promisify randomBytes once and reuse it rather than twice for every invocation

- There shouldn’t be a default value for the company name or people will end up using it.

- The company name isn’t validated so it could contain underscores which would cause issues with the short token parsing as it assumes it’s the second “chunk”

- The equals comparison of the hashes for the secrets is not timing safe. It’s not as bad as if they were plain text but it does short circuit due to how string equals works. Use the actual built in timing safe equals on the Buffer hash (not the stringified hex).

Ask HN: How do you prepare for startup coding interviews?
I can't tell if this a "both sides" butwhataboutism or not. But there's enough of that and enough people who will mistake my statements as "Republicans bad, Democrats good" that I'll address that even if that's not your point.

A better way to reduce my position is "Republicans bad, Democrats slightly less bad". Or, perhaps more accurately, "Republicans bad but effective, Democrats slightly less bad but completley ineffective."

That all goes to my point: the Democrats as they exist in modern US politics are completely feckless. They are way more concerned with fundraising, the aesthetics of appearing to do something and doing everything they can to stamp out any remotely progressive or socialist element of the party. There's no better example of this than the concerted effort to coronate the only candidate in 2016 who could get Trump elected over an actual progressive.

Obama, who I personally like as a person and a statesman, was a pretty ineffective president. Obama the candidate was progressive. Obama the president was just another Democratic right centrist who reneged on many campaign promises (eg codifying Roe v. Wade).

And Bill Clinton was the architect of mass incarceration of Americans (particularly minorities) with the 1994 Crime Bill (which our current president was one of the primary architects of). The 1994 Crime Bill was an abomination.

But you see, all of that makes my point: there is no Left in America. That's why I find things like Elon Musk's tweet so ridiculous and why I dismiss any notion that both sides are now more extreme. They're not. The political spectrum as a whole has shifted right. That's why "both sides" is both a logical fallacy in general and quite ridiculous in this case in particular.

I agree with your conclusion to not write cli tools in Javascript.

However, packaging node in a binary is pretty much what electron does today, albeit with a GUI.

But that's what freedom of speech is for. If you are a citizen of a free country with freedom of speech and voting rights, everything is your responsibility. You are supposed to be the ultimate source of power.

If you think something is wrong in the society, fixing it is your responsibility. You can of course ignore it if you think the issue is not particularly significant or if it looks like other people are already handling it. But if the issue is important and contested, you are expected to get involved.

The deeper issue behind polarization is that people don't agree on the principles the society is built on. The Constitution may codify some principles, but too many people consider them insufficient or illegitimate. There is no fix to this apart from the vast majority of people agreeing on some set of principles.

I think everyone should try living a few years as a non-citizen in a foreign country. It gives a different perspective on politics. You live somewhere in the long term and see the issues around you, but you don't have the same rights as most other people and your responsibilities are limited.
WoLF are representing Andrea Kelly. The ACLU's own filing, that you linked to, confirms that she requested only statistical data, not personally-identifying information:

> 4.8 On March 19, 2021, Requestor Andrea Kelly made a public records
request to Defendant Washington State Department of Corrections that sought the
following records:

> - "The number of transgender individuals currently incarcerated broken out by facility location."

> - "Number of incarcerated individuals who have been transferred from a
men's facility to a women's facility since January 1, 2021."

> - "The number of male incarcerated individuals who identify as female, non-
binary or any other gender identity who are currently housed at a Women's
prison facility."

> - "The number of incarcerated individuals who have transferred from a
Women's facility to a Men's facility since January 1, 2021."

> - "The number of female incarcerated individuals who identify as male, non-
binary or any other gender identity who are currently housed in a Men's
prison facility."

I do wonder if you read past that first paragraph you quoted, because the above section supports the facts of WoLF's article that you erroneously called out as "outright lying".

Serious question how exactly did you come up with the idea for selling what is essentially public available info then convincing people to buy it? Is it just rate limit removal. Why do people pay for what is essentially public info. I see john deer on customers list again just blows my mind.

The real threat is that people believe it and defend it.
Crypto is here to stay but it needs a shake out. There are too many people that just want to make a buck with no thought about their value to society. So a bunch of the crypto space will start to disappear as more responsible players will define their roles. NFT's, blockchain, Bitcoin and Ethereum will survive the shakeup. It's too early to know in what form. There are still many crypto products that will be created but only those that meet a defined need will survive.

Also, in 10 yrs or so you will see the space being dominated by a few big players. The big players will offer services that will be hard to pass up by customers so they will flock to them. The idea of decentralization will still be part of the space but a small part. The big players will be involved on the protocol's definition with the stated goal of improving the protocol for all but they a really looking out for their interest. They want to make sure the protocols don't created problems for them as they change.

Something that must happen is that the services must get to a point where customers find it very easy to use. So any company that can create services that are fool proof will win over customers and be one of the big players.
Older devices! And some new ones that still have USB-micro.

It's quite difficult to buy a USB-C cable that is not USB-C or Lightning on the other end. While USB-A on the charger's side with USB-C on device side is quite common and comes with a lot of devices that don't include a charger.

I couldn't find USB-C to USB-micro device cables at any retail store near me.

Ended up getting them off Amazon.

My transition to all USB-C is also much slower than it could be, since you can't get 6- or 10-port chargers that are all USB-C. iirc best I've seen is 2x USB-C and then 4 USB-A.

Use cases:

- my embedded dev boards are all USB-micro (sometimes 2x of) and worse, USB-mini or USB-B. setup for dev on the go from my MBP now is a foot-long USB-C to USB-micro.

- charging older Kindles, bike lights, etc

> words are not harmful

Then they're not beneficial either. Right?

But this is a very old game of indirectly signaling one's pretensions of superior human quality by implying that things others consider harmful are do not qualify as harms to themselves, and thus less important than the freedoms that they desire to have, some of which may inflict those harms on others.
This may be a definition thing. Some statements that correspond more closely to reality. I call those statements "more true".

It sounds like your definition of "true" is more like "what we all agree on". I don't like that definition, because it means that things can go from "true" to "not true" and back to "true", as the consensus changes. I find that disconcerting, because that isn't how I think about truth. (Note well: I am not saying that your definition is wrong, merely that it doesn't match how I think about truth.)

But I think we can agree on this: Those who care about reality and those who care about winning consensus are talking about completely different things.
