What’s interesting about this is that it would pose a similar challenge to text editing that teletypes did back in the day. The machines where you had to print stuff to paper (no screen). With Ed, Ex, and those kinds of editors. Much less extreme though.
Maybe. One potential problem is that the banks aren't likely going to want to spend time dealing with verifying security and onboarding for smaller operators who want to use the APIs directly for this, which will mean aggregators have to get involved (who in turn will need to take a cut to cover costs and make a reasonable profit).

Useful for things like React Context when using Kotlin/JS.

The other way to look at this is this lets you model your functions dependencies into two different groups:
1/ "Data" your functions is working with - passed as good ol' arguments
2/ "Services" your function needs to do certain operations - passed as context

I guess it's slightly nicer when thought that way, though good luck getting a team of 200 developers on the same page regarding how to use these advanced features.

Code review:

A: "Why are you passing that data as context?"

B: "makes it cleaner"

Cleanliness lies in the eyes of beholder, so how do you argue with that?
I bought an eink monitor. Overall great except I had to switch to light mode for everything since ghosting was an issue. It had a high enough refresh rate to be workable.

(there were warnings though that using the higher refresh rate settings would greatly affect longevity of the screen though.)

7/10 would not recommend.
Plenty of territories have their own TLDs. Many islands that are integral parts of countries have their own TLD (e.g. Reunion Island in France along with most French overseas territories).

There is an 'hk' TLD and an 'mo' (macau) TLD and they don't seem to be going anywhere for the time being.

The claim that 'tw' would be removed is just unfounded conjecture or FUD in my view.
This, by the way, was my first big burnout moment. You put your life into your startup and you truly believe this might make the world a better place, and then a bunch of MBA fucknuts come in and ruin it and you're left with useless stock options and a broken heart. Now I just want to get paid.

Never trust the suits, kids. Never trust their bullshit. And never give your heart to the business. It'll get broken every time.
I've asked that question quite a few times as well, and for most of the people I've had this conversation with, GA simply IS how you get metrics and insights, whether you're interested in anything advanced or just the number of pageviews, GA is how you get that in the same way as a hammer is how you get that nail into the wall. Plus it's well-known and relatively easy to troubleshoot (since there is a youtube video for pretty much any edge case), all the tech people know GA so chances are you won't have to troubleshoot much. There's also the ecosystem of tools and third-party products that tie into GA or GA BigQuery exports, that's also very important for some people as you can build some pretty impressive yet scary rube goldberg machinery out of GA and a bunch of these.

They are rarely seen, as many consumers don't identify them as domains. People understand the meaning of "example.com" in an ad or something. Thus companies are reluctant to put their primary site to not established TLDs.

Companies also always "need" the .com (and country, TLD) as people will always try companyname.com.

New TLDs work for some people's blogs, some places with more technical audience or specific marketing campaigns.
You're welcome, but it's getting worse here as well. The western part gets warmer and wetter and the eastern part warmer and drier. Currently advances in agricultural tech keeps grain output in check despite the problems arising from climate change, but at some time the threshold will be reached were no amount of improved planning/machinery/fertiliser/.. usage will make up for record drought after record drought on our farming belts.

Edit for sources from Norway:

> Climate change will also increase the risk of summer drought, particularly in southern and south-eastern Norway.

And this is where most of the agriculture is.

Great point. Most profitable companies try to minimize their taxable profits, and the same rules that are in place to counteract that can have the effect of overstating the profitability of other firms.
I honestly don't see an added value to such a product. Pushing for minimalism can be nice in a lot of situations, but to me, this seems like it's going a bit too far: The target audience for such a product can't possibly be that large. Visual applications aside, even coding without any syntax highlighting does not sound too great.
Their storefront feels dated and retro — probably why it feels something for older tastes. But their lollipops are amazing. I go there just for them. Just today, I bought a box of chocolate-caramel.
Yes, the Voynich manuscript is worth mentioning here, but it doesn't qualify as a really big, wide-ranging and high-quality corpus: it's about 35 thousand words (if the things that look like words are words), whereas a million words would still be a small corpus by today's standards; it's a single document (for example, it might contain no first-person pronouns, no future tenses, almost no mention of individual people, ...); and we have no idea about the quality (for example, perhaps it was copied by someone who didn't understand it and is such a bad copy that even someone who knows the language and the script would find it hard to understand). Still, it is definitely worth mentioning here.
Didn't azakai just say that?

Technically it would be simple, they'd just need to add a lookup to their database before doing regular DNS lookup.

Back in the 90s AOL did similar with their browser and it was fairly common to see companies list their AOL Keyword in advertising.

I think it's unlikely to happen too soon though as they generally own the search box in chrome and can autosuggest whatever they want when you enter a term anyway which is probably the contemporary equivalent anyway.
> but a fly can make me look foolish.

You should keep trying buddy. Try approaching your hand to a fly very slowly and when the distance will be ~20cm slap it with one powerful movement. Remember that a fly survives ~70% of slaps because it manages to hide between your fingers or something - you need to kill it after slap with squeezing. Keep trying and you will be able to kill flies with your hand with 50% efficiency in average. There are even easier way of killing a fly btw, for example do slowly approaching it with a thin pin which is too hard for a fly to see it coming.

Definitely not the developer experience.

But as it is often mentioend, as companies and apps grow, so do their requirements and the need for flexibility. I can't think of a more flexible deployment target that handles a lot of the PaaS concerns than Kubernetes, warts and all.

Fly is surprisingly great, volumes + containers is very close to universal for a PaaS, but it certainly can't cover everything that is running in my workplace's kubernetes.
Questions

Is this meant to be recursive or authoritative DNS?

Is there an equivalent of query logging?

Are there plans to make this full featured liked BIND, or definitely not because your goal is to keep it "no fat, light"?
Yes, and MARA has only been profitable in one quarter so far, if I read things correctly, and the author argues quite convincingly that even those profits are overstated insofar as the depreciations are understated, and things will quite likely turn worse. At the same time, extravagant salaries are being paid. That is how investors are being taken advantage of.
I always use a small tupperware container to catch flies on a flat surface, seal it of with a piece of cardboard and release it outside.

You also avoid the mess left behind when clapping them. And in some way it also feels better.

It's actually a fun hobby of mine and after a while you can catch them nearly always. I also love watching my children trying to copy my approach. Highly recommended!

> If your house is still on-grid, you still have to pay all of the grid costs.

Yes but building new solar causes new grid cost.

> Because if batteries were a cost-efficient way to deal with solar's intermittent generation, every utility in the world would be tripping over itself to order batteries by the TWH.

They are cost efficient in Germany. So i am not to familiar with other countries situation.

> I also can't optimize my energy usage around the sun.

With batteries you could do that more.

Both have a role to play. Another reason for solar is that people rather invest $10000 in their house then $5000 in shares of a grid scale solar installation. So while it might not be capital efficient it unlocks more capital investment for the green transition. From an economic view roof top solar is a jobs program where well paying trade jobs are created all over the country.
I think you're suggesting something along the lines of using entanglement of superposition to indicate observation (as in a MITM attack) by collapsing, but that's really hard (like, on a physical level) to maintain over useful distances and periods of time. By contrast, the quantum computations that make encryption vulnerable only have to last long enough to spit out an answer, which makes their scalability feasible.

The most promising approaches I've seen in terms of quantum resistance seem to be along the lines of extremely clever zero knowledge proofs, which can be arranged such that party A can prove to party B that they know something particular that party B has agreed is sufficient authentication or authorization, without revealing to party B exactly what it is that party A knows.
This is all true, but with pattern matching for instanceof you don't need the explicit cast:

Object foo = ...
if (foo instanceof String s) {
System.out.println(s.toLowerCase())
}

In this case, the scope of the pattern variable `s` is just the then block, so are free to reuse it elsewhere in the block.
Why would I need an underpowered laptop with a laggy e-ink screen and probably a bottom of the barrel keyboard?

First of all it's a terrible reading experience. Why would I want to lug around a whole laptop to read some books? My 10.1" e-ink tablet is already perfect. And if not books, what else would I read, documents? documentation? as per what reason? to _program_ on that device? so it would need to have a complete desktop OS to deploy everything that I need? on such limited hardware?

Secondly it's a terrible writing experience. Not in a million years that keyboard is going to be better than a model M or even a decent mechanical keyboard. Also, again, write what? A book or a scientific paper? ok sure, if you are so dedicated that you are willing to buy a device only for that to bring with you on your travels then please go ahead. Also writing code would be impossible because as I've mentioned you would basically need your whole stack.

Lastly it seems to really not solve the problem it claims to solve. What's the purpose of this device, to have less distractions? Ok, then why couldn't I just write my stuff on a notebook or with a typewriter? If you want purpose and intentionality those are really the ways to do it, not mash your keyboard infinitely at a e-ink laptop. Same goes for reading, if the aim is to make reading slower and more comfortable then just read a good old book. Nothing slower and more distraction-free than being able only to bring one with you at a time because of the size.

Please then, could anybody tell me what they find interesting about this product? Because I really don't get it

Some discussion (given this is IT site) use IT as analogy, but many IT world cannot be easily applied. Regulation is needed. In fact the triangle of regulation, competition vs facilitation-participation-governance has to be balanced.

Here, I wonder given we are IT site let us learn from one history not gov regulation but military mandate that help - the alternative provider concept that leads to AMD survival along side of intel. (Sadly no Boeing alternative now which it should to avoid the 1 monopoly vs 1 regulator killing the other trianlge). That means e.g. there must be at least one competitor per state instead of one per state for critical sector. (Let one may add for critical sector be American 50+% and controlled by chinese, Russia, india, eu or Brazil etc. or at least buffer for say anti-biotic enough for local produce to replace any issue, like oil reserve).

You know in our field, AMD survived because of this mandate and we have innovative idea. One of the issue of monopoly is not they are poison which they might be, but they do not know alternative. Organisation compete also but once settle down they do one way. And then the regulator was captured. And the facilitator, the participants (stakeholders) and the governance all gone bad. You just do not know any alternatives.

Can 80x86 do 64 bit, say? No, we need another architecture. Microsoft, HP … all followed intel leads to nowhere for a decade. Windows NT has those you know. Even here alternative is there but no need. (And it comes ultimately as ARM… another story.)

History now, and for novice you always wonder have i selected right - amd64. No, I use intel cpu … should I choose the non-amd option. No you should not. It is AMD told us that the x86 can have 64 bit. And the rest is history. But if we have only intel. We still are trying to switch. With a very hot cpu in 14 nm …

Key is not regulation vs competition vs gov oversight/public stakeholder participation/ facilitation and helping hand. It is all.

In many industry you cannot really allow free competition (everyone can be a doctor), but also undesirable to have no competition (single provider - which can be ok if there are alternatives abd competition to provide option ).

Sidetrack but important, in one of discussion, Gov need to help, but not play 2 incompatible role the facilitator AND the regulator at the same time (usda vs fda as mentioned in sone post; or the Boeing incident of delegation of flight safety by Boeing as the regulator … does not really know as they are not from a different background, the so called capture).

China example is the worst. They have too much competition and they break the system by ganging it. And then the regulator, media, … all forced to cover it up.

The “infrastructure” for this is hard (like current Wuhan virus handling and vaccine innovation/certification etc). But the triangular relation is a must. And must be balanced.

A lot of laziness has come from these newer rest/spread syntaxes (something to do with functional programming patterns too?).

As a oldschool Amiga/PCDOS/ASM/C developer who moved on to the web ten years later... it always feels awkward to me to do things like arr = [...arr, ...arr2] because I'm always wondering just how effectively that is handled by the Javascript compiler.
Ideally use-package would simply be included in emacs, so you could rely on it.

Apparently they are getting close: https://github.com/jwiegley/use-package/issues/282

Until then, I have this in my init.el to install it if necessary:

;; Install use-package because that installs everything else
(unless (package-installed-p 'use-package)
(package-refresh-contents)
(package-install 'use-package))

(require 'use-package)
It's easy and people are lazy.
Meanwhile in India, offline micro payment has become more convenient than Cash. Look for UPI. Unified Payment Interface. I regularly make payment of INR 10 ( USD 0.13) for a cup of Tea at a roadside stall.
When discussing external eink screens the comments were that you definitely do get syntax highlighting, just not in color but rather bold, italic, different font etc.

That said, I also think that an eink screen (or tablet with screen) that you can use with any laptop has a much larger audience than having it built in.
You know what the gotchas are.

Hi HN community,

One of the first requests I got for ‘create-rust-app’ was from a friend of mine regarding ViteJS. At the time, I didn’t know how awesome and fast ViteJS was as opposed to webpack and the name sounded like a JavaScript library so I didn’t really see the point. Upon a second review of the project, I realized the best thing I could do for the rust web dev community was to create an example of how to integrate ViteJS-based SSR in rust. And voilà, here it is. The docs also link to an “awesome list” which references create-rust-app [1].

This integration paves the way for things like adding multiple front end framework choices for the project and potentially doing SSG in rust.

The cost of going through a payment processor for micropayments has always been more than the micropayment because the "security checks" over and above using TLS security on a website starts pushing the costs up _if_ done properly.

Saying that those costs should be coming down today compared to a decade or two ago because there is also much better surveillance, more bugs and backdoors/zero days have been found and with the global inflation stalking the planet, ironically it could be the inflation that helps make micro payments become more popular.

This is why advertising fees pay for search engine results and its an excuse to intelligence grab from businesses through their advertising criteria so its not just human end users who get surveilled.

Basically all the things you otherwise forget about or never need to worry about when writing production JavaScript. Yawn. I sound like a curmudgeon and I am: too many interviews I've been in that involved JavaScript felt like abstracted garbage. Nevertheless, good luck!
Looks interesting, especially the frankenstein model in the ThinkPad T41 chassis as that has a lovely keyboard and display aspect ratio.

However I think the biggest problem to tackle here is not the hardware but the software. If it runs for example some kind of regular Linux distribution or Android it won't be very usable as they're just not designed for e-ink. If on the other hand it runs something custom, it would need to be able to sync documents to the exact syncing setup that I currently use for me to consider buying it (and of course also the exact syncing setup of any other potential buyer, of which there are probably close to infinite, especially in the kind of circles that this device appeals to in the first place).
Great resource which I'd like to use, I only wish the search would work like a command palette like on MDN or Tailwind docs... because if this is so complete this could be a great alternative for me from MDN, having more "tutorial" text and examples, not just specifications.

So I'd like to be able to hit Cmd P or Ctrl K or the like, enter "nullish" and then find the article on nullish coalescing op.
When the file is very large and time if of the essence there’s value in the p2p share as I imagine the combined time of sender and recipient is less than the purely sequential steps of party A uploads THEN party B downloads. But for most use case I agree it’s a solved problem
There are other unary operators (!, ~), although I'm almost sure FORTRAN didn't support those, but 1 - -13 => 1 - 0 - 13 = -12 would fail, wouldn't it?
It's similar to how some development choices are made too. Examples: Rewriting the system in a new language, change a framework or create your own from scratch.

I have fallen into that trap myself. I have read about some exciting new tech in a blog and want to try it out in a POC. There may be some excitement around it and suddenly it becomes a MVP and placed into production. Eventually it evolves into "legacy code" that developers hate to touch. The right approach is sometimes to step back, and rewrite the POC in a language/framework that can be supported by others.
even if you live outside of your country, you typically still are considered a resident of the country of citizenship, because to declare you a non-resident someone would have to prove that you aren't still registed as resident or don't don't have a home there any more and are not going to go back any time soon, which you could do any day.
Reminds me of Turing Tumble, marble powered computers (https://upperstory.com/turingtumble/). My 8 year old got one for his birthday and it's one of the very few toys he actually likes better than screen time!

I assume that the kind of things you make when coloring are very similar to the marble computers, the rules of the Tumble components would translate very close to the coloring rules, I think.
This is awesome, congrats! I'd love for something like this to exist for where I live.
Pretty sure that's well within the bounds of normal variation we'd expect between different locations within a major city. There's all kinds of weird microclimates in most cities, you really do have to compare like with like here - it's entirely likely that there were actually higher temperatures in Delhi in the past and there just weren't automated weather stations in those locations at the time.
