You're trying to tell me they released a feature without even testing the login flow? That's going beyond "oh this is a little accident" straight into almost unbelievable amounts of incompetence. At that point it is more charitable to attribute it to malice.
@BXRekt on twitter shows liquidated short positions on Bitmex in realtime.

https://twitter.com/BXRekt/status/1527462460457984000

Here's a million dollar short that got liquidated all of seven hours ago. Shorting Bitcoin is madness, partially because no regulation prohibits most exchange operators from frontrunning their own customers (besides the ones that voluntarily signed on to become the benchmarks for CME's Bitcoin futures price). Exchanges and market makers will collaborate to artificially push prices around to optimally liquidate shorts -- it happens all the time. They love people shorting Bitcoin.

> I can accept the pain of using new.reddit.com to login

Huh? Reddit never made me do that. The only thing that doesn't work on old reddit for me are those free medal unlocks, which I don't care about. Otherwise it's still 100% functional.
There is so much content here. I may need to write a blog post about this... :)
I don't have an issue with 18 people chosen to be promiscuous under the guise of “noooo, we aren't testing whether it works, we’re testing that there aren't side effects before we test specifically whether it works”

Both phases are awesome studies

People in labcoats like “go out be sociaalll” and a studious kid in Africa like “oh ok, I guess”
Yeah I just tried it to see what the fuss was about, and it works just fine as usual.
Can it be timed to cut off the sound after some pre-set time has passed?
I think your contrarian view is biased and misleading.

The HTTP request for favicon of each email’s domain, which you hypothesized, might be the issue that Google was thinking of. However, your hypothesis has never been clearly stated during rounds of emails between the developer and Google.

Wouldn’t it be helpful to clarify an issue in reply to the developer, rather than having someone post “a contrarian view” afterwards?

>By contrast the official mobile app has become the overwhelming way that people consume the site's content.

because it's forced down people's throat. you can't read anything there except possibly for the default subs populated with shills and redditors. you get "unreviewed content, please install our botnet to proceed" popup as soon as you scroll down half a screen past the op
Well I think this is really your own bias. The article quickly states that it is being rolled out in 2 African countries.

It also fits the context. Countries with the most cases are Russia and almost all countries in Africa (except for the North).
So Africa as a continent is in need of a HIV cure.
It doesn’t let me log in from the old site. Been happening for two days. I suspected it was a problem with my browser protections such as referrer hiding, but I didn’t investigate further. It wouldn’t surprise me if it was an honest mistake since the Reddit engineers are… less than competent.
> Looking at apple's website, their MacBook Air (which I assume is their main model?) has a "retina" resolution of 2560x1600 with a 13.3' display, whereas the framework has a resolution of 2256x1504 with a 13.5' display. So they are about the same, except that one is marketed as "Retina" and one is not.

From your claim, the MacBook Air has simultaneously a smaller display and a significanly higher pixel count: over 20% more pixels than Framework's display in a smaller area.

You might try to argue that the difference is not meaningful or important to you personaly, but they are far from "being the same".
An update on this. I remembered when I enjoyed working out: it was when I would go solo to a clean, low-traffic, convenient gym and do some cardio and weightlifting at my pace, tracking progress.

I started doing this again today!

I have also enjoyed biking, but I don't feel very safe doing it in the city.

Also, hiking and group outdoor games. This requires effort to set up, so it will take some time before I can do this regularly.
not entirely sure, but there appears to be investment from old-school banking, so that could be its on ramp into the classical financial sector.

oh yeah, & this:

but yeah, bitcoin has no utility. you'd just have to wait until The Merge inevitably occurs, or use any of the few PoS cryptocurrencies that are generally better & more capable than bitcoin in every capacity, like Avalanche, Cardano, Fantom, Solana, etc.

Building Oh Dear’s new design: Creating a color system, why and how
you can forge a cert or a painting by copying it. a good forgery can be very convincing and requires expert investigation. see Salvator Mundi in which the authenticity of the painting is still not clear despite years of investigation by countless art historians and conservationists.

if you try to copy a token you will end up with a new cryptographic hash and a new history of transactions associated with it. there are countless clones of crypto punks for example, but the only one that has any real traction is the one that has a clear history of transactions associated with its contract hash. anybody who can tell the difference between two strings of characters can detect whether a token is a forgery or not, it does not take an expert.

yes obviously centralized exchanges are centralized, they are not the ones upholding the ledger or crypto art certs. even crypto art platforms like Foundation and opensea do not own or uphold the certs being issued and indexed by their platforms. it is more like the way that google indexes search results, it doesn't own the websites on its search results.

yes impersonation is possible but often easy to detect on-chain. if a supposed notable artist is suddenly minting new work from a public key different than the address they've used in the last two years, suspicion would be warranted.
So, past trends are the basis of this advice? Not trying to be snarky, just genuinely interested in why we would expect it to climb again.

Are these analytics coming from Reddit themselves? Call me paranoid, but I wouldn't be at all surprised to learn that they were massaging numbers to make it seem like fewer users were hitting old reddit.

> take substantial energy to move around (vs, say, an ebike).

e-bikes are an alternative to cars the same way wheelbarrows are an alternative to trucks.

they are different means of transportation, for different purposes.

I don't own a car and I try to use cars as less as possible, but every time I need to use one, an e-bike would be useless.

When an e-bike could be useful, I can walk or use public transports.
Reddit, glad im not using it anymore. The new design is such a pain in the ass.

Wry – Cross-platform webview library in rust for tauri
Tbf there are third party apps that work quite well, I'm somewhat fond of Relay for Reddit myself and never have any issues with it. The official app is unfortunately complete trash.

Right now I'm not seeing any of these problems that OP is talking about when using old.reddit either. I think I may have ublocked all the banners and popups at some point.
Unfortunately, cameras increase the ticketing, but not reduce the problem that much. Speed bumps are both the most economical and most effective speeding solution in the city, because the "reward" for speeding is both immediate and possibly damaging.

Yes, it's a noise nuisance and comfort nuisance for the law abiding people (I drive through quite a few of them, everyday), but speeding people are much more dangerous IMHO.
What are you talking about? Research chemicals communities? Nootropics frontline forums?
Eh, HN is very much like reddit /r/technology + /r/programming but without fancy editor.
Does usage by third-party apps get bundled with the official mobile app?
Discourse, not discord. Discord is a "we sell your data" app directed towards zoomers and gamers, nobody sane should promote it.

Oh please, it's a random post. You have no clue if the author is remotely saying the truth. Why people has to believe everything they read is besides me.
FYI both Ycombinator and reddit have the same age, both were created in 2005 according to Wikipedia.

It kinda weird because for some reason in my mind Ycombinator was 5 year-ish older.
They are coming from Reddit's own analytics. I do find it interesting how many more pageviews they see on mobile vs uniques?
My bad, I automatically read Discord since it has been gaining huge popularity in the last few years while Discourse wasn't at the top of my mind for 'recently very popular communication software'.
The US adult population is ~250 million. With Bitcoin's ~300k transactions/day, it would take over 2 years for each of them to simply open a LN channel, if we dedicate the entire network just to onboarding.

Lightning will definitely not solve it.

edit: tps -> transactions/day
Well it actually IS what reddit used to be. It's almost a carbon copy of the early versions before subreddits were a thing, though HN has slightly worse css and usability, presumably to keep out the normies and to make it run from that one raspberry pi that ycombinator has allocated to hosting it.

I do sorta wish HN had reply notifications.
At this point it can be used for payments practically everywhere where Bitcoin accepted, but it’s not yet practical for payments over $100 as far as I know, so I still only use the base Bitcoin layer for paying for my travels.

There are new algorithms in late research phase though for much larger payments (like $5000) that are expected to go into production this year. I’m waiting for that before switching to using lightning network.

For people in the US though they can just go into a Walmart or McDonald’s and use it right now.
Interesting to see there is still some more to squeeze out of the old girl yet. Most seem like things that could have attempted before now but I guess weren’t the top pain points to fix, I wonder how many more 4-6% savings there are in there, good to see people going deep and keeping the improvements coming.

I wish this tool was more useful but currently it's nothing but a simple dashboard and other parts are better handled inside a shell.

Graphs, logs and stats are nothing actionable and package manager and service manager was kind of broken the last time I tried and it provides nothing better than command line by showing bunch of entries to make it hard to look at.

Not sure what people use it for.

Usually the neighbors inflicted things like park closures, "no loitering" near commercial parking lots, and vetoing neighborhood skate parks on the skaters, all of which would be further from resident bedrooms, and much safer for pedestrians, skaters and sleepers.

Instead folks seem to hope that by demonizing and inconveniencing a relatively harmless teenage activity that simply requires a bit of outdoor space as "antisocial", skateboarding will just...go away?
No, they're not tracked at all.
Yes, based on this, it is possible that the quality of conversation could get worse.
There's a lot of interesting improvements in PG15, some of my favorites from https://www.postgresql.org/about/news/postgresql-15-beta-1-r... are:

>PostgreSQL 15 introduces the jsonlog format for logging. This allows PostgreSQL logs to be consumed by many programs that perform structured log aggregation and analysis.

>pg_basebackup, a utility used to take full backups of a PostgreSQL cluster, now supports server-side compression using Gzip, LZ4, or Zstandard compression.

>This includes the introduction of parallelization for SELECT DISTINCT statements and improvements in performance to window functions that use row_number(), rank(), and count().

>PostgreSQL 15 builds on its existing support for the SQL/JSON path language by including more standard SQL/JSON functions. These include SQL/JSON constructors, query / introspection functions, and the ability to convert JSON data into a table.
I live in Stockholm which is a very calm and quiet city. Still, it's noisy, simply by being a city, there is no way around that, you have thousands and thousands of people densely packed in a small area, it's bound to have noise even if it's the quietest "bigger" (1-2mil pop.) city I've ever been to.
Thanks, the overall logic is somewhat clear to me but I'd like to understand Justine's work a bit more in depth (like https://justine.lol/cosmopolitan/) but I don't know where to start. Just reading the code or the tutorial requires some background knowledge I don't think I have.

>simply over-generalising

Yes a bit, but:

Snap-Store? Ubuntu-One? You always try to create a wallet-garden with proprietary software as the main-repo/server with no additional gains against other opensource OR closedsource competitors.

Then you guy's see that it's not adopted as you wished, then you stop supporting it. It happened with Ubuntu-One and it will happen with Snaps.

Both times you made the server closed, but the clients open, just stop with that BS, and if you really have a vision at least stick with it (mir, ubuntu touch, unity...) you try to create something, be the leader of it, but at the same time expect that others work on it. If not instantly successful you drop it.

Do you really think someone wants to invest time/money in software that is owned and steered by such a "leader"?

You know when you presented Ubuntu-touch, i was thinking:

Wow that's the end for linux-laptops in like 5 years but no, you dropped it...i was completely disappointed, that was your chance to redefine client/terminal-computing.
What's so much worse / "toxic" about the new user-interface compared to the default old. one?
The Cosmopolitan Libc _start() function starts by intercepting the --ftrace flag. https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan/blob/master/libc/runtim... If it exists, then it opens and sorts of the symbol table from the elf binary. https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan/blob/master/libc/runtim... Then it changes the protection of memory https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan/blob/master/libc/runtim... so it's able to iterate over the program's memory to look for nop instructions it can mutate. https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan/blob/master/libc/runtim... Those NOPs were inserted by GCC. It's easy to self-modify them in memory, since they have the same byte length as the CALL instruction. Think of it like a mini linker. It just relinks the profiling nops. Once they've been rewritten, functions will start calling https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan/blob/master/libc/runtim... which saves the CPU state to the stack. That means ftrace kind of acts like an operating system kernel. Once the assembly saved the CPU it can call the C code https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan/blob/master/libc/runtim... that acquires a reentrant mutex and unwinds the RBP backtrace pointer (via __builtin_frame_address(0)) to determine the address of the function that called it. Once it has the address of the function, it passes it along to kprintf() which has a special syntax for turning numbers into symbols. https://github.com/jart/cosmopolitan/blob/master/libc/intrin... That's really all there is to it!
It includes DCA because you don't know if the market will turn around.
Horns definitely have a use, a fact that was made clear to me when driving a bike in Vietnam (horn is critical to let people know you are passing in a big group).

However, what should be penalised heavily is blaring your horn in frustration or when stuck in traffic. This happens near where I live on a daily basis, and causes my blood to boil. It seems for these people it is almost instinctual, and they will do it at the slightest slowdown or inconvenience.

Not a big fan of enforcement actions, but this is incredibly anti social and provides zero/negative utility. A couple of weeks of police camping intersections and handing out liberal fines might perhaps encourage a change in behaviour.
In the recent years Germany has started allowing companies to no longer issue print invoices. But you still need to keep a copy of every generated invoice.

Initially "digital invoice" meant that you had to get the invoice cryptographically signed by the same government agency also in charge of literally printing money (or an officially licensed company) and then ideally send it using the now mostly defunct monstrosity that is De-Mail because it made guarantees about end-to-end encrpytion and sender/recipient authentication. Luckily this is now largely irrelevant and most companies just send regular PDFs via e-mail and/or make them available for download.
You could have the best of both worlds by making the CI job search the backlog for overdue critical tasks.

> The forgivable hubris of one who outshines most of their peers intellectually while still in a small-pond environment?

Yes, but more than that--the loathing of a bright young mind for the dirty and low world he found himself in, not yet tempered by wisdom which says "seek beauty in all things; do not cry for the dawn, but enjoy the pleasures of the night".

Escapism is a powerful drug, and boy did I want to escape. And I did, but getting out was just a first step. Getting over took longer and needed more focus and patience than I had... And so many detours have been taken. Yet, here I am, capable and much more mature, if less eager. But my heart is larger and less full of spiders. I walk more gently.

In a hundred years, we will be transformed, I think, into a more fantastical world, to our eyes now, but the steps there will all be vain and grumbling... and no one will be able to appreciate it when kingdom come is here, because dirt will still get in everyone's fingernails, and nothing will ever be so good as advertised.

I'm content, I'm curious about life and death, and sleeping dreams. Waking dreams, too, are available but, I think, less within our grasp. I'll sleep now and pray for beautiful dreams.
