>They locked people out of their accounts and demanded phone numbers for "safeguarding," then used them for targeting in direct contravention of a previously negotiated agreement with the FTC. If that doesn't rise to criminality, the fraud statutes need to be updated.

It's bad, I agree.

But jail? That should be reserved for the most heinous crimes and criminals.
Minikube isn’t intended to run production services. You’ll encounter a lot of constraints that don’t exist on a real cluster, and you’ll likely lose important data if you use it very long.

Docker made sense to use in production because people wanted to run containers.

What could possibly be the justification for running production workloads on minikube?
> How can you have a successful business that spends more money than you make?

Today or tomorrow?

If a company has to spend more than they make today in order to build something they can sell for profit tomorrow, that's investing in the future.

Just looking at revenue or profit is too simplistic. It's also too simplistic to only look at a single point in time.
Most gun owners I know are not going to tell you they have guns - in a survey or otherwise.
I called it ages ago -- this company is an utter train wreck. I am honestly ashamed of the entire industry for birthing and fostering this basically fraudulent company. Its mistakes and lies are compounding on themselves, creating awful outcomes for its employees:

- Company almost certainly juiced its usage numbers, potentially by buying users to inflate its customers revenues, so it could use those numbers to convince new customers

- Used a single deal with a large company (Forever 21) to sell VCs on the vision, while under the hood that deal was clearly failing

- ex CEO picked twitter fights constantly, to the point of calling into question whether he was even capable of focusing on execution

- Biggest competitor (Fast) exploded even before the market crash.

- Offered employees a four day work week while claiming rapid exponential growth

- Offered employees PERSONALLY guaranteed loans to help them exercise the options

- Raised at $11B valuation with 100x forward revenue multiples.

- Cash raised is currently 6-8x revenue multiple, meaning valuation over next 12m makes employee options worthless

- I've never seen the technology used on any website, and I am a frequent online shopper.

Real talk, is this fin-tech's latest Theranos?
McNealy a narcissistic egomaniac? And having been around Jobs in person, that's not the impression at that time, more like headstrong focus primarily, with interpretations thereof all over the place, evidently.
No surprise there - he has been trying to distance himself for some time. Not surprising they agreed to sell so fast. Now it will Musk's headache (seriously doubt the deal will go through). Musk's twitter obsession is ruining his reputation. Owning this turd will likely accelerate that.
The subthread we're commenting on is about the ban, not about the proxy.

I looked up a few articles on semantic scholar showing that vitamin D supplements do help for some things. I suspect it’s a case of “not the whole story” instead of “the story is flat out wrong”
I use DaVinci Resolve 17 for primary video editing, plus Fusion for basic composition. Blender was done for most of the animation work (the semaphores being fusion compositions instead cause I was lazy). Audio is recorded in Resolve, but post-processed through RX Elements 8, and music is from the YouTube library.

Both "we overhired" and "it's because of the market" can be true at the same time.

You get a $335 million in Feb with a common understanding with current investors that you are going to raise $ XXX in roughly 24 month, depending on results compared to an agreed upon business plan. You thus plan for a roughly 24 month runway. 4 month later (now) you get a call from your investors that your planned next series is going to be significantly lower/harder. You now need to stretch your 24 month runway to at least 36 month. SO you have to adjust plans.

They didn't overhire compared to the initial plan, but overhired compared to the current situation, where basically all rounds are 50% lower and many are just not happening at all.

The ycombinator downturn letter (https://techcrunch.com/2022/05/19/yc-advises-founders-to-pla...) just says something like this:

> The safe move is to plan for the worst. If the current situation is as bad as the last two economic downturns, the best way to prepare is to cut costs and extend your runway within the next 30 days. Your goal should be to get to Default Alive.

That sounds exactly like what Bolt is doing.
Big HN – Tiny userscript to increase font size and spacing on Hacker News pages
The kids that find a gun and shoot their siblings, parents or themselves are mentally ill?
I liked the "cut with the grain" comment, someone made earlier.

The UIViewController must be present in a UIKit app. Most classic UIKit apps have the lions' share of code in UIViewControllers.

It's entirely possible to basically use a "skeletal" one, and have the main code in the linkages between the Model and the View, but that makes the Storyboard Editor useless.

I use the Storyboard Editor a lot. It is not my favorite editor, but it allows me to work incredibly quickly, and to make a really reflowable UI.

I know that the app I'm working on now, is larger than any I've seen from SwiftUI (around 40 screens, and communicating with three servers in realtime, using a couple of SDKs). I am able to make it all work.

I feel as if MVVM would make the parts of the app that link the UI to the servers a lot more graceful (it's a nasty state engine, right now -ick). I feel as if this kind of app is the kind of thing they had in mind, with SwiftUI.

I do know that it's really important to derive subclasses, and extend ObjC classes, when using UIKit/AppKit/WatchKit, and I feel sorry for folks that avoid inheritance like the plague. It must be a fair bit of work. Looks like SwiftUI doesn't really need that at all, but I haven't spent enough time with it, yet, to know for sure.

I have no doubt that I'll end up mastering it. I'm a quick study. I've spent 35 years, surfing the tech wave.
> It would be a big step backwards for society if a new wealth gap is created when oil becomes too expensive to continue running cheap ICE cars and only moderately wealthy people can afford cars priced exclusively at "new" values without a 2nd hand market.

That's coming whether you want to or not.

Once we start pricing in the externalities of climate change into road vehicles (which is beginning to happen, slowly), cars will become increasingly unaffordable to those in the bottom quartiles of income.
Amazon basically always had positive marginal revenue - unlike most of the startups.

People like to cite the one case where it worked and seem to be forgetting that most of Amazon’s profit comes from AWS. What are the chances that any of these startups are going to pivot to a competent different vertical to shore up their main business? That’s just like saying all you have to do is rehire the former CEO after a 10 year absence and become a trillion dollar company after almost going bankrupt.

And no Amazon did not use “excess capacity to jump start AWS”.

Well presumably that 1.25B is mostly engineering salaries since its "research and development" (for tax purposes where they probably get huge write offs).

Anyway, they need that org to get their 1.8B in "cost of revenue" down, which is presumably mostly the cost of massive server farms to store what are mostly text mesages. Although these days with all the machine learning/etc to sell ads they probably "needs" all that hardware to run their models and can't just optimize it down to a higher perf system painting web pages.

"These massacres are not natural disasters, acts of God, or random. They are totally predictable, direct consequences of the choices made by Greg Abbott and the majority of those in the Texas legislature," O'Rourke wrote to supporters in a Wednesday email.

Ehh, that's a somewhat grim view, though I doubt I can offer many valuable points about the wider nature of capitalism as a whole.

That said, what I can say is that there definitely is a wide spectrum of different circumstances that people are dealing with and therefore the level of care that certain things will get will also vary.

For example, would it be cool to spend 2 decades working on the perfect GUI framework that'd be tested, dependable, performant and would also have exceedingly good usability? Sure. Is that going to happen in our current world? Perhaps not.

But hey, starting out with a bit of pushback and selling the concept of TDD or quality gates is a start as well, or even having proper tests for all of the important business logic, whilst willingly ignoring (putting off) the things that are just infeasible.
It likely will for a variety of reasons.

People will make up all kinds of reasons why "this doesn't happen anywhere else", they'll completely ignore the actual cause of the violence (a person), they'll make excuses, bring up solutions that are illegal, entirely ignore cultural issues, ignore that psychopaths are looking to be famous, point at more laws which won't do anything because the existing ones didn't work/etc.

“Enlightenment in the Digital Age” Report
Not so much a new game, as a new aspect to current games — I want to have access to NPCs of all sorts under my control (think zerglings in StarCraft, or linebackers in Madden), able to have their behaviors rewritten through a (hopefully) simple script or even some sort of setting of hierarchies of behavior. In addition, having accessible MOO elements undergirding RPG worlds would be a really neat addition. I don't want better graphics — I want more control, the ability to change how aspects of the world (or at least my stuff in the world) functions, and the chance to modify/replace AIs (think about doing this once you've beaten a game you thought was too easy) with plug-in alternates.
You're completely missing the point - it's the principal of the matter in question here. The app _should_ work offline, even if that's not how your actual environment is configured.
I’m basically a prison abolitionist but i don’t really see corporate fines as any real kind of justice at all either, for big or small things. This is just putting a price tag on the behaviour.
He is absolutely, 100% wrong. It may be true for mass shootings, but not for overall gun violence.

A lot of gun deaths are suicides. Those are mental illness.

But there are categories that are just idiots with guns, like people who get into fights outside bars.

There are also a surprising number of men who murder a woman who is pregnant with their child because they don't want the baby to be born.

Sometimes murder is just murder and there is no diagnosis. Not all aberrations in society are mental illness.
That's not a crime, it's an accident.

Mass Shootings Are Contagious (2016)
Now do it in OS/400.
Eventually we'll have equipment on Mars that we want to function for a long duration, and we'll need to solve that problem, but for InSight (and others) death by dust was by design.

It costs money to operate these probes with a whole staff here on earth monitoring, commanding and analyzing the data that we receive. After some time you get diminishing returns on how much you can learn from the same probe, and would be better off paying these people to work on a new probe (improved using what you have learned) or even an identical probe, deployed elsewhere on the planet.

When these missions are designed that is taken into consideration to determine the desired lifespan of the mission, and the probe is designed to that lifespan (with some margin). Spending money (or worse mass) to make a component survive well beyond that lifespan would be a waste, and could cut into the (fiscal or mass) budget resulting in tradeoffs that make the probe less capable during the lifespan it has.

Insight was designed to operate for at least two years with margin. It has hit the limits of that margin after four years and it's time to shut it down.
No. According to the Go project, adding his site to the exclusion list would reduce traffic to his site at the cost of freshness of the data the proxy collects; it would not make it "impossible" for people to use packages from sr.ht.

This is all in the thread that DeVault linked to from his post.
In the US, all cars will have screens now of one sort or another. Laws were passed requiring the installation of backup cameras in all cars. So, you will never see a new car that doesn't come with a screen of some sort. And if it's going to be required to have a screen, they're not going to make it a single use only for backup cameras.
Something can be random and also preventable.
Beto is right and wrong at the same time.

A game with a good, complex and deep magic-system. Magic normally is just limited to cast predefined spells, bought at the shop or learned along the way. At best they have some elements interacts, but barely more.

What I want is something where you can literally research magic, discover new effects, combine them to create new magic in form of spells, artifacts, rituals and so on. It should be easily accessible, after all it's a game, and not work. And have a bit of liberty in world interactions and movements. So maybe a easy metrovanian like Ori or Hollow knight, where you get new movements and open new paths through magic discoveries, but can decide your own difficult-level by either using some slow and safe magic in form of a ritual, or fast and dangerous by fighting directly with battle-orientated spells.

There are a bunch of games which go a bit in the direction, but are not complex and deep enough, like "Mages of Mystralia", or the Magicka-Games. Thinking about, a sandbox-environment might be the best for this, so Minecraft with some mods, or Noita would also go in the direction from a different angle.
"Being a violent criminal" is not a mental disorder; most people who commit acts of violence do not have any diagnosable mental health issues.

Only a small minority (3-5%) of acts of violence are attributable to mental illness: https://www.vox.com/platform/amp/2015/10/1/18000532/gun-viol...

I think a part of the issue lies with the fact that most homes built in large suburban developments of the 21st century don't have basements. My dad kept his tools and camping gear and other less used stuff in the basement. I have to sacrifice a parking spot and still usually need to move a bunch of "stuff" in order to use my table saw or work on anything larger than a bench top.
I'm curious why you doubt the deal is going to go through.
For Win10 Pro users, Minikube can run directly on Hyper-V.
I mean, I overheard my coworkers discussing pretty awful talking points. Ex: saying that gun control won't work because we'll just be killing each other with swords.

Which ignores the fact that its a lot harder to kill 18-children + 1 teacher with a sword, than it is to kill the same number with a gun.

--------

There's also the discussion point where "background checks won't have any effect", except we know that this person legally purchased a gun just days before deciding to shoot his grandma (and continued the shooting-spree into this school).

Just giving that person maybe 2-weeks of break between buying the gun, and having the gun, could have been the time needed for that person to calm down internally and find himself. As long as people can walk into a gunstore, pickup a gun the same day, they can execute these power-fantasy moves.

I'm not sure if a background check would work in this case. But any kind of "innate delay" to the gun buying process, to give any would-be mass shooter some time to think it over, would almost certainly reduce the amount of gun violence. Almost all major mass shootings in the USA for the past decade seemed to be with a very, very, very recently bought gun (within a week or two).

-------

The "background-check" argument seems to point out the issues of spouse-abuse as a high correlation to mass gun shootings. It'd probably work in other cases, but not this most recent shooting.

The "background check" against racism might work, since just a few days ago there was a racially motivated mass shooting.

------

In any case, there's a lot of bad talking points on this subject, pretty much espoused by everybody? I'm not entirely sure how to move forward with discussion.
> If I told you I don’t listen to the Billboard top 100 songs, would you say “nonsense, you don’t listen to music?”

No, but the reponse is more like: I only listen to Indie, Billboard isn't music.

The vast majority of internet traffic, e.g., the most popular sites, mostly require JS. If you only visit obscure indie-rock sites, then fine, but we're talking about the masses, not the small niche exceptions.
6 years of development and deployed to actual products is an experiment?

The issue I have with Google is it's never clear to outsiders when projects are simply "experiments" that google is going to kill later. Dart, GWT, Angular Dart, for example, seemed like more than "experiments" yet google did a soft kill on Dart and effectively a hard kill on GWT.

You learn that something is "an experiment" when all the sudden updates slow or stop and the mailing list stops getting responses.

I don't trust google software because google bureaucracy is fickle and unpredictable.
The Cayley-Hamilton Theorem
The Lotus interior was one of the most glorious interiors of all time. Simple, light and somehow it was so ergonomic, you can road trip in it and not get sore and tired. A true driver-centric design.

Yah, some personal risk might justify some of the salary package. Yah sure your going to make $50M a year, but you might have to sit in jail for 20 years sounds fair.
Are you saying this is nature/genetic or nurture/environment?
That's a risible suggestion. Even DeVault doesn't say that.

This reads as "My work-life balance sucks, but rather than fight for improvement, I'm going to complain about how others have it so good."

A "cannery" of spam, as spam (food) comes in tin cans? :D
That's not a gun crime (at least on the part of the kid) it's an accident. Kids die in accidents, it's a very sad reality. It might well be negligence on the part of the parents or whomever let the kid gain access to the gun though.
A lawn mower game. It's like those games where you use the money you earn to keep buying better gear to cut lawns. The lawns and landscapes get more challenging, from steep inclines, to squirrels that get in the way, and people leaving garbage and old cars in the lawn (but not to the point of absurdity). You earn more when you decorate the lawn more, and start landscaping.

A snowball fight game. A multiplayer game that plays like japanese dodgeball games, like dodge danpei. However, you wouldn't use the super throws willy-nilly, because if other players catch your super throw, N number of times, they'll end up learning it, and can use it on you. You can also build snow walls, forts, etc. during the course of the match.

A time-traveling superhero. A simulated city, where a bunch of crime will take place, and it's up to you to try to save as many people as you can. You can rewind time and redo things, but the things that you do will have other side effects and outcomes that affect your ability to save someone else. In the end, it's clear that no matter how powerful you get, you won't be able to save everyone and some citizen is going to be mad at you. Pick from other time power heroes, that can replay time with another body, or another one that can slow down time.
I checked out your app because I've been wanting something like it but hadn't bothered looking at what was out there yet. Looks great!

One thing I noticed though is that both barbell weight customization and plate customization is coupled together in one purchase. I feel like you may want to separate barbell weight into a free customization option because barbells made specifically for women tend to be lighter (~33lbs). By charging for barbell weight customization, you're inadvertently creating a difference in experience between men and women (for the base app, no purchases).

Interesting. So you can't reasonably turn mental health diagnosticians into detectives. Fair enough.

I buy it. The range of normal childhood behavior is quite wide and often only seems damning post-hoc.

When I was young, I made a CS map of my school (not very accurate) with one bomb site in the headmaster's office. Clearly mentally ill. Or maybe just having some fun.
OK, we're using words differently here.

It's not "Google" you'd be spamming, it's the Go language community, most of which has nothing to do with Google. Please don't make high-drama arguments like this.
No, kids being able to access a gun and ammunition is in fact a crime. But nice try - we do the same thing with car crashes, the 2nd prominent killer of adolescents, and predictably we do nothing beyond calling them accidents.
