There are some measures in place to prevent bots and click-fraud. DOS is less of a concern, as everything is serverless and based on CF/S3.
I'm actively experimenting with pricing and it could well change in the future. You've given me plenty to think about!
A first shot would be a look at the introduction of digital media in particular places or times. Some people have done this with the internet by using e.g. distance to an ADSL exchange as an instrument.

Or, a randomized controlled trial. If it has an effect worth caring about, then it's worth running an experiment on. A real positive or negative effect would be a big deal for policy.
From my original post:

- There is a timestamp where it plans a bad route briefly. That is something to investigate and fix even if it didn't ultimately keep that route.

- It also enters a lane with markings indicating that it shouldn't be entered. That is another serious issue that needs to be addressed.

> It doesn't matter whether Tesla ultimately planned to enter the center left turn lane;

It absolutely matters; figuring out the root cause of the issue is the essential thing, not scaring people. Self-driving cars are already safer to use than regular vehicles. Scaring people out of them rather than solving the root cause of issues with them will kill people.

What I'm doing, which others aren't, which makes me seem so counter-cultural, is that I'm putting this video in context rather than accepting the headline at face value.

This is a video of a self-driving car + human not getting into an accident. People who hate Tesla want to make that seem like a horrifying thing. In contrast, there are roughly 30,000 deaths a year due to driving accidents in the US alone. If you treated self-driving like you treat human-driving we would watch videos of deaths every single day on Hacker News. Every single day, without fail, there would be a new video we could post where someone died. We wouldn't get once in a month a video where someone didn't even get into an accident. People would die in the video, because humans are worse drivers than humans + AI.

I know that context. I know that regular cars are killing people everyday. I'm not forgetting that when I watch a video where an accident doesn't happen. I'm not accepting the empirically falsified perspective that self-driving is less safe, because the stats don't back up that assertion. I'm instead noticing that the video title was editorialized. I'm noticing that goes against the Hacker News guidelines. It disgusts me that it is, because I'm aware that convincing people that self-driving cars + humans are less safe than they are has the net effect of killing people by reducing prevalence. I don't consider that a good thing.

People who are freaking out over Tesla have a very distorted sense of how safe these cars are and a very distorted sense of how safe human drivers are. We're definitely not at the point where the vehicles can drive on their own, but we are definitely past the point where it is better to let the human drive on their own than to pair them with an AI. One video a month where someone doesn't get into accident in a Tesla, but I see as many cases where the Tesla stops an accident. Yet if I engaged in the same behavior as OP for regular cars, I could post literally hundreds of videos of actual death. I wouldn't need to editorialize.
Also, the community forums are generally quite useful when something isn't working. I've posted there with an actual problem maybe twice, but the problems were resolved within 30 minutes.
There were quite a few draw modes (SCREEN 7 had a high resolution, SCREEN 13 had the most colors available), but I would reckon that the text mode was a lot faster and easier than trying to do things with the built in graphical functions.

If you wanted to make anything mildly complicated you were better off using a community built external graphical libraries (there were two major ones, but their names escape me).
It pays for itself in dollars but what about the carbon emissions?
I miss my old Moto G1. Light and with a small form factor, and at the same time it was one of the first phones that were cheap but not low quality.

It made a breakthrough in a market where you either had an expensive Samsung or you dealt with cheap phones with very bad specs. This was ages ago, fortunately today there are more phones that are cheap but with acceptable specs.
> mindlessly

I think this is probably more key than you think.

Mindlessly watching junk food TV is not going to help you a lot. It's not very "nutrient rich" (to continue the expression) in terms of knowledge gained.. but you will probably gain some.

Watching documentaries and, crucially, actively watching them is probably very good in terms of how much you learn.
It's not, I'm living well within my means. If I was concerned about the money I could probably spend more of my time to find the content on sketchy streaming sites like putlocker.
A 1 bedroom in the area only costs around $2100 these days, taking that rent as 30% of your income, that would only require a salary of like $84,000 a year. That's probably on the low end of pay in Toronto for SWE these days, I can't imagine someone working at Microsoft downtown and not being able to afford a nice place.
After the deal officially falls through, because it's obvious that it's about to.

I think it's technically a little early to be getting buyers remorse... since he's not yet bought it.
You're ignoring time.

Eating out has overhead that can easily exceed that of cooking, plus it's one block of time.

Eating out is especially time-wasting for snacks.

Food delivery reduces some of the overhead but introduces delay.

Plus, meals that you cook are more customizable. (Ghost and automated kitchens can solve that.)
It's sad I can't tell if this is sarcasm
> Streaming services still have significant service problems that need to be addressed.

This is true. I spend a lot on media, but also pirate things too, because it's often a better experience. One search engine for everything, and I don't need to sign up for 10 different services?! Wow!
Sorry about that. I'm a one guy does many things. Maybe I missed on video sound, but it's tricky trying to make a text editor look interesting. I thought the music helped.

Now I wonder whether you're pulling my leg.

Nvidia users are out of luck in my experience.

The transference of Bitcoin still relies on digital signatures so the only way to forge transfers would be if ECC (or bitcoin’s implementation of ECC) was broken).
Ya, then they promised to forgive all of the loans so that people would be willing to take out even bigger ones to drive prices up even higher.

The purpose, of course, was a massive transfer of wealth to the colleges and universities which were an important political ally and perpetual source of newly-indoctrinated voters. But people wouldn't have supported "giving a trillion dollars to the elite colleges that support the party"
The right kind of toys, yes... and the right kind of video games.

There are toys, and games, that make you dumber. Especially games designed to emphasize the addiction loop and monetize inconvenience. Case in point: Angry Birds.

It used to be a very fun, silly, physics-based game. Now, it is infested with pay-to-unlock consumables that in some cases are required to get all three stars on a level (because you can't knock everything down without an explosion and the default roster of birds for the level doesn't give you that).

The simpler a physical toy is (a ball, simple blocks) the more likely it is to contribute to a child's development. The insidious "I-need-another-outfit-Barbie" on the other hand only trains frivolous spending. Even Lego sets vary in the kind of play they foster.

Playing with toys and games can have cognitive benefits, but, digital or otherwise, there's a quality spectrum parents have to be aware of.

Zitadel: Popping the competition! (Sponsored by Clearasil)

Honestly, how does this name even remotely relate to what it does? Sometimes I really despise the trend towards "quirky" names in open source projects.
That server does a lot of other stuff. Controls zigbee devices, runs a small intranet search, handles internet archiving workloads...

I believe he is correct. As a more unqualified opinion from someone who codes (not necessarily programs) a lot of spin loops for embedded systems, I am also convinced that software devs should also become drummers. Perhaps not really but the sound would be awesome.

I believe TLA+ is the better and more precise description of state machines and would very much reduce the verbosity for complex systems. From there the abstraction for new languages should happen. Here are some examples for that from Lamport himself:

DAI highly depends on USDC, ETH and BTC. If there is a bank run on DAI, they have to sell their collateral which leads to price drop in BTC/ETH which will make the situation worse. USDC, their other collateral, is controlled by a US company and therefore to some extend by the US government.
Thanks for your comment, I'll be look into these posts today.
Hmmm. Did you look at any of the libraries mentioned here: https://oauth.net/code/go/

I'm not in the golang world, so curious how useful that list is.
Another under-mentioned reason is that iPhones have more efficient processors that generate less heat, and also need less RAM to perform equivalently.

Whereas, fitting a top-line Snapdragon into a small phone is a challenge. There’s a reason why top-tier phones have copper heatpipes, vapor chambers, and so on. All things no iPhone has or needs.

You could still do a small Android phone, but you might have to abandon the idea of including a Snapdragon 8.
That's not what MMT says. It says that excessive spending in the economy can create inflation. A possible way to compensate (not the only one) is to raise taxes.

But it doesn't say that the only cause of inflation is excessive spending. That idea is a monetarist fantasy, who are able to keep saying that even in the middle of a pandemic, with a logistic collapse, an energy crisis and a major war. Still, they think that everything will be OK raising interest rates and taxes.

Totally crazy. I'm curious to see what they will say if we see something a lot worse, deflation, in the next years.
A blog post to not run afoul of SEC regulations? I don't think so..they could easily bring this up at earnings.

I’d love to see benchmarks.
I'm also noticing that Cloudflare support is going terribly downhill.

I have an issue with the Cloudflare infrastructure on my domain since WEEKS, giving me thousands of 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable errors per day (cloudflare side, not the origin server) and nobody seems to care or able to resolve.

Removing the ability to create support tickets on free plan doesn't help at all, I mean, I get it why they're doing it, but asking on their community forum as an alternative it's not an acceptable solution. Neither going after Cloudflare employees on social media platforms hoping for a reply.

If I'm also going to pay for their services such as Zero Trust, domains registrar and R2, why do I have to switch to a Pro plan just to open a support ticket? Perhaps a middle-ground solution like 1 free support ticket per month on a free plan would be a good compromise?

I still think they're giving an incredible service and value for free, but this sucks.
I would strongly recommend seeing a therapist. This is the exact kind of "thought pattern" that therapists are incredibly good at helping you sort through.
I don't disagree with that point, you could probably find everything I've got on sketchy streaming sites if you spent enough time.

> "Shanghai has topped the country in terms of the number of foreign workers, with its population of foreigners accounting for 23.7 percent of the national total of more than 900,000,"

Less than a million total foreign workers sounds like a very small number and practically insignificant in the Chinese context. Does China rely heavily on foreign workers in any industries?
There is watching unpopular stuff and there is watching 30 TB of unpopular stuff.
making 30TB out of 5T drives would need 12 disks with mirroring. That's a bunch of power. It might also be a dual-socket Xeon, for that ECC
It didn't translate 100%, but even a pro player in Starcraft1 unsuccessfully transitioning to Starcraft2 still played at an insanely high level relative to the general population. It was the difference from maybe being a top 50 player before to a top 500 player after. I would say that this is evidence of a very high carryover.

WC3 => Sc2 is a much greater leap than sc1 -> sc2 but still there was decent carryover. Grubby was still a GM or high masters player, even if he was no longer elite.
The article person might want one, but people don't. That's why the iPhone Mini doesn't sell and is being axed.
I worked at a security consulting firm that had an 8 GPU password cracking rig. Teams would be able to send it hashes obtained during assessments/red teams and try to discover passwords.

I was not doing that type of work so I'm not sure what type of software was used but I think it had multiple open source programs available.
I watch some shows on Amazon Prime Video despite the shitty UI because they are great but it does mean that I do no discovery through the app.
At least, most of the volcanic winters they record on Wikipedia seem to have just reduced crop productivity by some amount. It isn't like a "blot out the sun like in The Matrix" type situation. We might be able to make up the gap just by increasing efficiency in our distribution.

Apparently the volcanic winter of 536 lowered global temperatures by around 2.5C, which puts global warming in a worrying light, though.
I agree with everything you've said, and I'm a pretty staunch advocate for gitlab.

I hope that the powers that be are listening.

I still think they're the best of the AIO SCM tools, but I think people are starting to consider disrupting them because of bloat (UI, performance).
I have a decent rip of The Expanse and an amazon prime account!
Yep. Standard Sun resolution for the longest time was 1152x900. The little B&W logos are 64x64 and most of the newer ones are 100x100 so like 9% of the screen width.
I have a question: how do you cope with on-screen keyboard, when screen is small? I'd like to have a phone which doesn't take too much space in a pocket, but I found that below 5.5" I have too much struggle typing. Should we ask for a physical kbd (say N900 style) if we want a new phone anyway?
The link to "rust-bindgen" in page https://anssi-fr.github.io/rust-guide/07_ffi.html seems to be broken. I think it probably refers to "bindgen" (https://crates.io/crates/bindgen).

Wasn't there a thread on HN within the last couple of months that says switching back when things go wrong is actually very difficult? Intermediate servers or something cache the DNSSEC issues and things tend to break for 24 hours at a time. Unfortunately I can't remember the details.
I touch on this on the site. 5% of iPhones sold are minis. That's 10m sold per year! That is more than enough demand to cover the NREs and costs of making a phone.

Before this devolves into an argument about piracy, let me begin by saying the reason I pirate is because I feel fine doing so. I don't care about any arguments for why others might think I shouldn't. I'm simply not bothered by it.

Back to discussion, I agree that saving money could apply to almost anything. However my first point is that, in my opinion, there's a material difference between digital piracy and stealing a car. If I possess a car, nobody else can own it. However with digital media, I'm making a copy of something that has zero impact on anybody else's ability to own their own copy of that data. The only thing that's lost is my physical storage space that could've stored something else, but that's my call to make.

A second point is that I mainly pirate things I wouldn't have bought otherwise. I still watch movies in theaters because I can't pirate a theater experience (AMC A-list is great if you enjoy watching in the theaters IMO), I still buy modern games because I'm extremely cautious when it comes to running executables.

A third point is that ethically, I consider supporting a mega-corporation like Amazon worse than committing piracy. Mega-corporations commit much more morally heinous actions, and at an enormously greater scale, than an average pirate would ever commit. In my opinion, the moral sin is not that pirates commit piracy, it's that mega-corporations have been given almost free rein to shape and exploit our society as they see fit
I just watched Margin Call for probably the 5th or 6th time over the weekend. I love the movie, it's not particularly great in an objective sense, but Zach Quinto and Simon Baker in particular do great jobs in their roles. And some of the scenes are fantastic even in isolation.[0]

We need the state monopoly on violence in order to maintain an orderly society, regardless of which monetary system we use. The energy used by law enforcement to secure the financial system is a tiny fraction of the total, and switching from fiat currency to cryptocurrency wouldn't reduce that energy use at all.

The important change is that it used to be a low-status activity, but now it's becoming a higher-status activity — at least until middle-class people get bored of instagramming their thrift-shop finds.

Although, the upper classes have always valued re-use and handing down. Alan Clark (not a man who would have thrived in today's political environment) once said: "The trouble with Michael Heseltine is that he had to buy his own furniture" i.e., he was lower class. There was a similarly snippy remark made about the furniture in Katherine Middleton's (Duchess of Cambridge) family home—it was too neat and new.

> It's definitely not "human nature" to feel envy towards your friends and family.

Let me tell you how I had envied my cousin when he had a Super Famicom (a.k.a. SNES in North America) with a stash of great games and I didn't (not even the base machine), when I was a kid. He never wronged me. In fact, we were really good buddies when we lived next to each other more than 20 years ago, but I still envied.
A single quarter? Perhaps, though every arcade had a few wizards that, through mastery of the game and its mechanics, could play for much longer on much less money. I couldn't tell you how many were literally impossible on a single play, though I don't see the distinction as particularly important. In both cases, the idea is clearly to have the player continuously retrying, getting more and more skilled, and going further and further. They both absolutely encouraged mastery.
No. It's not. Fast video playback and low latency was a requirement, and you can't do that over the wire with X11 or VNC. Pipewire is the solution for this.

This is why SirCmpwn was right, and the anti-Wayland crowd needs to just shut up. Wayland+Pipewire is the future of remote desktop. Together they solve issues X11 by its nature cannot solve.
That's interesting. I had always considered Groovy as a good language for such tasks. Because fast JVM and many JVM-native libs to work with big data. And also because Groovy is perfect for building a Domain Specific Language.

I sincerely do not believe that this behavior is genetic. As you've said, many of us live in competitive capitalist societies, we are conditioned into a socipathic mindset by advertising, and educated to reduce the people in our lives to numbers on a spreadsheet. This is not how humans are meant to function, we have been conditioned and trained to think this way.
Single-use bags are no more biodegradable than multi-use ones. They photodegrade when exposed to sunlight, and fissure into smaller pieces due to weathering, but their chemical nature is not altered.
