> I'm criticising specifically the "I kind of enjoy playing the guitar, therefore music is my passion, therefore I must study music and get a job as a musician and if I get a regular day job and start a family then I've failed" attitude that's shoved down young people's throats.

Where do you see that message? People of that age that I know don't seem to think it. One person quit their engineering job and went to art school, but had no illusions. They found a steady, corporate day job using their art skills and setup their studio at home. Someone else has always loved playing bass and music, and quit their programming job to give it a try. Again, no illusions, but they are at least going to give it their all. I really admire that.
> Use sq foot gardening to plant more in less space

5gal buckets my friend. Cheap or free if you keep a lookout or have winemaking friends. Free-$2 per bucket for food grade. Pretty much the cheapest you’ll get per gallon of plant space. But I use ours to increase our garden space onto valueless concrete surfaces.

I mean my time frame was more like 50 years - assets you can pass onto your grandkids - but you’re fundamentally right if your time frame is 10-15 years
Thanks for writing that up! I was still in high school during the 2000 crash but I still think some things are different today. There are miners (to use the shovel terminology). They are watching Netflix series, running businesses, drive electric bikes around, monitor airplane traffic and all sorts of things. The internet today is just fundamentally required for so much of the economy to function that tech companies are much less bound to crash than in 2000.
Lol :-D
>If you were doing this though (using funds to mint other tokens to sell), the principle was clearly not in USD

It was often in usd.

>"It's 'completely safe', until it's not" which is exactly the point that I and others in this thread started with.

The meaning was: almost all smart contracts were safe, meaning you had to at least check the code before depositing.
I even want an US-Layout, so that's fine.

Wouldn't even have to buy it from the US. Framework sells their laptops in Germany, which is right next to me.

But that means that I have to ship the laptop back to Germany for warranty-related stuff etc.
I have a custom system in place for IPv4 to update AWS Route53 based on this script[0] which I could easily extend to update my AAAA records at the same time, but I prefer a stable IP address. Dynamic DNS (v4 or v6) has a tendency to break down for a time whenever the IP address changes until the old records have expired from resolvers' caches.

Sure, but the parent poster just wanted 50-100 watts to charge a phone. This just has a USB hub on the back you plug into.
> distro preference be too broad to make pre-loading efficient

Others seem to manage by just having one or two pre-install options. Maybe you could do that too?

> Our embedded controller firmware is open

That's good, but do you also ensure that it _works_? There's way too much works-on-windows-and-halfway-on-Linux firmware out there. At least it _can_ be fixed, but being open doesn't mean that it necessarily _will_.

What support do you provide for Linux users?

What is fundamentally concerning about a central bank injecting capital into the system? If anything, you could say the same thing about fiat currency and fractional reserve banking as a whole. Money comes from nowhere!
The third solution doesn’t make much sense since livestock consumption is mostly made up of inedible foods that we can’t eat like husks, stems, leaves, etc. of plants. Livestock is effective for up-cycling foods we can’t digest and turning it into foods that we can such as meat and dairy.

Also there is a lot of food waste in the US. Good food that is suitable for livestock…
Ask HN: Anyone else find Bluetooth to be frustrating?
I'm a relatively late adopter of Bluetooth, having mainly used cables up until recently. I own a pair of cheapish Anker earbuds and now Audio Technica headphones.

I find Bluetooth to be a frustrating experience. Almost every day I encounter issues when I'm trying to pair say, my headphones, with my MacBook. I hold the power button the headphones to turn them on or they're already on standby. I do a few clicks to pair them on my MacBook. macOS says it's paired but I didn't hear the pairing sound. So I try clicking again to unpair. No unpair sound. I toggle Bluetooth off and on and try pairing again. No dice. I power cycle the headphones and they pair with my phone instead. I hold the up and down volume buttons to force them into pairing mode again...

Not to mention that Spotify randomly decides to switch devices sometimes and refuses to switch back unless I kill the app. Or it says my headphones are paired even though Android does not.

On the London Underground, my music often goes crackly/distorted presumably because of interference from the trains and other devices around me. Frankly I never even considered that could be an issue. And it's not a faulty product or anything like that.

This isn't just a complaint about my AT headphones. My Anker earbuds are just as frustrating.

It would be so nice if you could just like, I don't know, bump two devices together and they use NFC to pair or something.
> "A war causing a massive energy crisis" seems to be a good time to increase energy production with more investment in things like fracking, which from what I heard, people are reluctant to invest due to the economy and rates concerns (they borrow from banks too).

Also a bad idea for climate change, which is becoming very expensive.
John Carmack? He's got one answer on stack overflow, limited open source contributions, a few conference talks, no books, no papers. He's known for producing actual results and not for any of the things you ascribe as 10x required.
I’ve been a big fan of this site since it was introduced to me when I first learned to code. But to your point, I can’t really imagine a scenario where it would become an ‘integral’ part of an project.

For use in development & testing, sure. Or just as a goof to one of your coworkers. Honestly, I’ll admit I’ve used it countless times over the years to refresh my memory on a particular code, while knowing I’ll get a nice giggle of from it.

But in the scenario you are asking about, in an important production environment, you would be wise to cache the images and serve them in your method of choice yourself. Or better yet, just clone the repo and add install it on your server. It’s MIT licensed, so no worries as far as getting in trouble. Problem solved! :)
Yes. Abusers often claim to be the victim and turn people against their target. And abusers will often provoke victims, complicating the situation.

> A few times in my life I've known people who tried to control me

And you are aware of a red flag.

Another good tool -- narcissists (other manipulators, abusers) will use fear, obligation, and guilt to control people -- FOG. If you find yourself feeling those emotions around / because of certain people, investigate carefully as to why.
isn't there a saying that goes something like 'Japanese are born Shintoist, marry as Christian and are buried Buddhist' ? Like as if religion was a more mutable part of one's identity, compared to other countries.
Not only is this an excellent discourse on teaching the Iliad but on teaching in general. I wish I'd been taught this way and with such enthusiasm and determination in subjects that I wasn't particularly fond of - and you've guessed it, poetry was one of them.

Teenagers often don't realize the importance of subjects they're being taught and they probably won't until much later in life - and that's probably even more so with subjects that they don't think they'll major in.

Having a teacher that can impart that information as well as being able to keep the kids' enthusiasm for the subject means that he or she has to be the best of breed.
thats a nice tip! thx!

If you haven't seen this before, you should definitely give it a try. I am a big CLI person but I still find it useful, especially for displaying/visualizing metrics/performance.

If you're on a RHEL or Fedora base, it might be already installed and running. You just hit it on port 9090 with your web browser, and log in with your OS creds (same that you use for SSH). If it's not installed yet and/or you want to also add performance co-pilot[1], it's pretty easy to do:

# Install cockpit and pcp and activate services
dnf install -y cockpit pcp cockpit-pcp
systemctl enable --now cockpit.socket
systemctl enable --now pmlogger

# If needed, open port 9090 in the firewall
firewall-cmd --zone=public --permanent --add-service=cockpit

# Alternatively you can open it for just your own IP
firewall-cmd --zone=public --permanent --add-rich-rule='rule family="ipv4" source address="38.14.154.124" port protocol="tcp" port="9090" accept'

Copilot is Closing

Hi,

I'm Tyler, owner and founding member of Copilot.

Copilot was originally built by a team of interns in 2005 at Fog Creek Software in New York City. I was one of those interns. In 2014, Copilot became its own company and relocated, with me, to Denver, Colorado. For the past 8 years, I have been running it independently, providing people all over the world with simple, effective screen sharing.

However, this past year, it has become clear that Copilot is no longer providing the level of service that I would like it to. After much thought, I have decided it is time to shut Copilot down. The reasons are simple: Technology is changing rapidly, and as an independent software vendor, I am no longer able to keep up with those changes, while maintaining compatibility with the older systems that so frequently need support.

The Good News

Because user experience is a key factor in closing Copilot down, shutting it down without an alternative was never an option. So I set about trying to find another company who offers similar services to partner with, to continue giving Copilot users a great screen sharing service.

To that end, Copilot has chosen HelpDesk by RemotePC¹ to provide future screen sharing services. I've spoken with the team at RemotePC and trialed their software extensively. I'm confident it will meet and exceed your needs.

As a bonus, they're offering Copilot users 95% off the first year, meaning that you will get HelpDesk for a full year for just $24.98, with unlimited users and computers. Or, if you just want to kick the tires, you can try it free for 7 days. Sign up here.¹

How It Will Happen

Copilot's servers will remain operational until May 1, 2022, and your account will continue to be active until that time. On May 1, all services will cease and all remaining subscriptions will be ended. For those who choose to move to HelpDesk by RemotePC, your account will be canceled automatically when you sign up for a paid account. As always, you can cancel your Copilot account at any time on your account page² or you can email support@copilot.com with any other questions or concerns.

Thank You

I want to thank everyone who has used Copilot over the years. It's been my privilege to be a part of Copilot from the beginning and to hear how many people it has helped over the years. Truly, thank you.

All the best,

Tyler

It doesn't in HTML/CSS.

I'm not implying they aren't true. Just pointing out Musk laying the groundwork to try and discredit whatever was coming.
I highly, highly recommend cgit. It's a lot safer than hosting accounts, databases, etc. It's a read only frontend for bare repositories.
Again, the fraud requirement is literally impossible - it's a category error - an algorithm can't commit fraud.

It was conflated in the past because without smart contracts ponzi schemes were necessarily executed by people.

>Unsustainable optimistic speculation != Ponzi Scheme

Speculation on a token that doesn't generate any income and isn't backed by anything is one version of a ponzi scheme, yes.
> what's fundamentally driving a lot of the panic are the "high" interest rates

A lot of crazy stuff that wouldn't pencil out without 0% (or near) rates went on for the last couple of years - and to some extent even prior to 2019. When you take away the punchbowl, as Buffett likes to say "we'll find out who's been swimming naked".

> Yes, inflation is high and that's concerning... This too shall pass.

We'll see how long this lasts. The stagflation that took hold in the 70s was difficult to get out of - it lasted for several years and was only finally killed with extremely high interest rates. I think the markets are afraid of this kind of scenario and it's a bit self fulfilling as companies pull back.

Yes, this is a different kind of beast than we faced in '08, but some of it is because we kicked the can down the road back then. Add in the Ukraine war and the effects that will have on global food and energy prices as well as current political instability in many parts of the world - this isn't something we faced in '08. It has some hallmarks of the 70s stagflation (middle east oil embargos kind of analogous to some of what we're seeing now) as well as the .com crash (tech companies were on a tear during the pandemic) and some aspects of '08 (housing bubble). It all seems to add up to a nasty recession. Probably not as bad as the '08 recession, but probably worse than the .com crash recession which wasn't much felt outside of tech - tech is a bigger part of the economy now so tech companies pulling back will be more widely felt.
Yeah, this is my biggest gripe about System76 right now. They _used_ to have HiDPI options, but they all seem to have disappeared. :(

Thanks for posting this, I always wondered why I couldn't be bothered with the whole Marvel franchise and this whole playing it safe, cookie cutting of film scores between movies makes the whole thing massively less memorable than say Blade Runner etc. Though I did lol at the spiderman bit at the end.

It ties in with a running discussion I have with a mate of mine about the state of music, compare the top 40 nowadays with 40 years ago and the variety of genres and styles on display back then feels much more unique and varied than now or maybe I'm just being nostalgic or maybe that's the whole problem with the need to recoup massive budgetry outlays and post the highest grossing box office yadda yadda (tangential tie in with the recent conversation about OKRs)?

P.S. RIP I still have fond memories of listening to Albeido 0.39 whilst playing Elite on my BBC eons ago and going round to my mates and listening to Jon and Vangelis that we'd borrowed from the library.
Yes, I'm not a goldfish.
Corporate/medical ethics is already dirty - those are not my ethics! - but having the wife justify the husband...?

I wonder if he used deep fakes or photoshop
There is a story about how Ridley Scott wanted to use this specific piece and a couple more by Vangelis in Blade Runner, and Vangelis told him: why reuse my old pieces, I can make a new score for this film specifically.

And so he did, in some short timeframe.
Ah I know, coat it in epoxy!
This makes me think of The West Wing back in 2005 with Josh and Santos arguing about whether to pander to Iowa about ethanol subsidies. Josh won, Santos pandered.

I guess if you want this to change, you've first got to stop Iowa being so ludicrously influential in the presidential election cycle.

How is this different than allowing people to turn the knob on your door and all your neighbors as long as they "have good intentions?"
Reading arguments that are so full of wisdom from more than a 100 years ago is one of the very rare things that I truly enjoy these days. If these people were alive today, I would thank them in writing.

It's disturbing how arguments in favor of privacy today are met with criticisms so weak logically that humanity does not stand a chance. It's tough to not explode with rage when somebody says "but in the caveman days, nobody had their own room they could go to be alone" ... Yes but you could walk 30 minutes in any direction and never have to deal with your cave pals ever again.
Simply saying that "Shintoism" led to atrocities is a massive oversimplification of the Japanese during WW2.

This topic is so complex and Japanese culture (especially pre-WW2 culture) is so complex that I hesitate even to comment on it. Ever since the war ended scholars have been trying to make sense of the unique cultural stew that led to the atrocities, mass suicides (civilian and military), and organized Japanese units continuing to fight into the 1950s and individuals as late as the '70s.

Shintoism, Bushido, Zen Buddhism, the imperial system with a living-deity emperor, and anti-western colonialism (just to name a few) all played into it.
this just seems like a lot of hearsay and indirect evidence, from a friend of the ostensibly affected individual. I mean, sure, SpaceX paid that, but it doesn't mean the event even happened, and even if it did... he propositioned her and she said no. There was no exchange of bodily fluids.
We learned to break down barriers to machine learning
It is weird. She didn't write just "race is a pervasive concept" - she explicitly added "in the U.S." to it, singling out the U.S. despite her own experience telling her it's just as or more pervasive elsewhere.
too bad there's no implementation where I can play this online
More precisely, it removed the portion of the bottom of the market belonging to people who were on the fence about upgrading and making their cars available, so in that way it's similar to EV tax credits going to wealthy people to subsidize their consumption, but with the added hardship on the people down market.

I sympathize with the would-have-been sellers. I spent probably 8 hours recently to sell a 16 year old car for $4,200, and it would have been easier to do it the cash for clunkers way. But people buying that car are unable to get something newer or want to get their feet under them financially.
studies have shown ethanol doesn't help the environment at all. at this point its just silly those subsidies exist
If only there was a world where the bussinesses didn't talk to each other so they wouldn't collude or fix prices, or join/buy their competition.
I’ve found the opposite with some of the soundtracks of his I’ve paid attention to:

- True Romance: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BA7WTbzqp2o

- Interstellar: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=zE-qxNVoUSo

- Little Prince: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=PKG_EVEs0Ck

- The Dark Night: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1zyhQjJ5UgY

- Dune: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=BdtiYwSP9ko

He’s very prolific (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hans_Zimmer_discography). Is it possible that you recognize just one style of soundtracks that he composes?

> The simplest useful view of this system is that land and fertilizer are used for farming, and more of either will produce more food. In the context of the model, since land is finite, and industrial output required to produce fertilizer and other agricultural inputs can not keep up with demand, there necessarily will be a food collapse at some point in the future.

Another French academic (can't recall his name) gave a recent presentation explaining that our ability to harvest energy is growing slower than our development of new energy resource. This would also inevitably lead to food collapse.
I live in Detroit, a couple of miles north of downtown. I wouldn’t think twice about wandering around downtown, anywhere downtown, at any hour of the day or night. It’s just not dangerous at all.

There are certainly neighborhoods where I wouldn’t do that, but the most surprising thing for me when I moved here was how aggressively friendly everybody is, and how off-base the “Detroit is a crime-ridden wasteland” comments are.
Narciasism has to be a spectrum, no?
Another way of looking at it:

* math property: x^y = x^(a+b) = (x^a)x(x^b)

* IPv4 addresses are 32 bits (2^32)

* 2^32 ~ 4.3 billion

* So the IPv4 Internet has ~4.3B devices on it

* IPv6 subnets are 64 bits, /64 (2^64)

So, a IPv6 2^64 subnet is the same as (2^32)x(2^32), which means (4.3B)x(IPv4 Internet). I.e., a single IPv6 subnet can hold the equivalent of four billion (IPv4) Internets.

--

A second way of thinking about it:

* Stars in the Milky Way: 400 Billion

* Galaxies in the universe: 2 Trillion

So (4x10^11)x(2x10^12)=8x10^23 stars in the universe.

* Size of IPv6 address space: 3.4x10^38

Find the ratio between addresses and stars:

* 3.4x10^38 / 8x10^23

IPv6 offers about 430 trillion times more addresses than estimated stars in the universe.

From Tom Coffee's presentation "An Enterprise IPv6 Address Planning Case-Study"

* https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Tnh4upTOC4

--

A third way:

On the surface of the Earth (land+water), there are 8.4 IPv4 addresses per km^2. Not counting the oceans, that would be 28 IPv4 addresses per km^2 land.

IPv6 gives 10^17 addresses per mm^2 (yes, square millimeter).

In terms of volume, 10^8 IPv6 addresses per mm^3 throughout the Earth.

I bet sourcing all that sand will be a bigger problem than they expect as sand is a rare and nonrenewable resource that's heavily in demand for concrete and sourcing it has all sorts of environmental issues of its own.

They should look into replacing that with something that's also cheap waste. Maybe crushed glass would work?
