It's less than $200 per month to send out 4G daily. If his business can't afford that, there is something else going on.

What is the total daily bandwidth that sourcehut uses anyway? What percentage is go module fetching?
> didn't the buyback miss a lot of weapons? I heard from a friend who lived over there for a while that many in the rural areas ignored the buy back and illegal guns are fairly common if you know where to look.

No law is perfect. Yeah there are some unregistered guns. But i assure you that a "lot of guns" to an Aussie is very different from a "lot of guns" to an American.

You absolutely can sue under the FCRA for violations, but there’s a few major problems.

First, even if you find a lawyer to take it on contingency, there are quite a few hard costs that are still out of pocket. Postage, document prep fees, travel expenses for depositions, expert witnesses, etc. It can literally be thousands of dollars.

Second, if your state does not allow for punitive damages for this type of violation, you need to prove damages. It is hard to quantify what the economic damage is of a credit denial or difficulty finding a lender is, and thus they will tie you and your lawyer’s time up with arguing this, even if they concede they erred.

Third, there is a serious time commitment to make in a lawsuit. Interviews, timely filings, certified mailings, depositions, etc. Easily tens of hours possibly hundreds.

Now, the type of person who can afford the time and expense of doing these things is generally also the type of person who can ignore a small hit to their credit score or a higher interest loan. Thus, these types of suits are not commonplace.

That said, I know someone who did this and was successful in getting a settlement.
No election campaigns either, they are all dictators-for-life unless reddit head office decides they need to be involved.

This is the same issue IRC has. In the old days, if you were lucky, sometimes you could unseat a tyrant, but modern IRC channel ownership is enforced by the server itself.

This is part of why I like Twitter, even though I haven't been active on it in some time. People have to opt-in to you on Twitter. It's impossible to be a tyrant on Twitter, you cannot compel people to pay attention to you there. The disadvantage of Twitter of course is that it's full of bots so you have to put together your own curated lists of people that seem reasonable. I don't even look at the home feed.
In theory you outspend all of your competitors such that they go out of business or otherwise lose out on the some network effect. At that point you flick the profit switch on and start swimming in pools of money.

I wouldn't like to guess what the success rate of this game is though.
I'm casually exploring using logic programming to define rules for games, as an embedded scripting language in a game engine, which would handle input and rendering etc. and be written in a more "conventional" language.

We'll see if performance is an issue, but the space I'm most interested in is turn based strategy / board games, where it doesn't seem to be a big deal if things are as fast as possible.

It feels like a pretty natural fit, e.g.:

can_move_to(unit_id, tile) :-
Unit(unit_id), Tile(tile),
reachable_to(unit_id, tile, move_cost),
unit_move_points_remaining(unit_id, mv),
move_cost <= mv.

You can define a lot of rules from basic unit movement to "what happens when you activate Super Special Rule-Bending Ability" this way, and it's pretty easy to change the definitions if you want to experiment with different game rules / logic. In practice, you want various syntactic sugar.

Haven't got a chance to take this very far yet, just casual experimentation, but it seems like there's potential.
So the solution is that everyone who does not want that behavior should request that they turn of refresh traffic for their domain? How long would it take until they would complain about people spamming their issue tracker if everyone who self-hosts a go module would start requesting this?

Maybe they should request 500 times a day because that's what the proxy is doing.
>>I do not believe that I am misrepresenting the article. The reason I do not believe that is because I am personal friends with an unusual number of historians who work in early US history and the history of race in the US. The quote I pulled from the article very neatly sums up their opinion of the 1619 project.

I have no idea what you are personally told or what views your friends, whatever their qualifications, have. The article's author is generally favorable to revisionist interpretations and even she has serious doubts. As a historical matter one of the central claims of the 1619 project is false and is mostly asserted without evidence. Now, if you produce a work with a thesis and one of the most important (as asserted by the work itself!) test cases of that thesis is false the credibility of that work is clearly undermind.

>>Braudel has claims that are outright wrong but The Mediterranean is heralded as a triumph. Said has claims that don't hold up today but Orientalism is a critical step forward for the field. [...] Historical writing should seek to be based in fact. But fucking up (even very badly) is not a reason to declare a work to be propaganda.

The difference is that those works advanced the field even where they had shortcomings. They did so by rigorously supporting claims and providing evidence. The 1619 project does neither.
I meant more like in the scenario where I use the line-in on one Sonos to play audio on several Sonos players around my house. Is their synchronization better, worse, or same as claimed .2ms skew from this project? That's 10 samples, which strikes me as noticeable.
Problem with the space heap of scrap aesthetic is that in real life space, even aside from all the other problems you need a lot more radiation shielding than that to survive outside low Earth orbit.
This is a great product. Surprised there's not a popular version of this already. Bummer all these people who apparently are too covert to use web apps are sucking the air out of your post.
Ninjam is a neat idea, but it's not really a realtime audio streaming solution (audio is delayed by a whole bar, iirc)
I played W1 and W3 several times and had no problems with the controls, but I was never able to accommodate with W2 controls, so I never played more than 15 minutes at a time, with many attempts. It was kb + mouse.

Can someone explain what that may mean for the >50% of employees at Bolt that bought into this program, now? I'm really struggling to grok what my quoted sentence entails...

>HOLY CRAP. How is this even legal???

You missed the tweet directly under it:

> Therefore, we made sure to give every employee ample time to read about the pros and cons of this decision, including learning about all the risks in the business, and we gave every employee a $300 stipend to consult a financial advisor during the implementation process.

I understand making things illegal to protect people from being swindled because they don't know any better, but if you made decision even after consulting a financial advisor that's on you.
Between them and Treehouse, hope no one tries to spin this to attack companies experimenting with the four-day workweek.
One thing that I find nicer with functional options is building tree-like data structures.

My command line parsing library uses them to declaratively build CLI apps with arbitrarily nested subcommands.

Space for vtables is almost always negligible, especially so on 64-bit targets. So the main effect of inflated vtables is cache footprint. But where that matters most, you probably shouldn't be doing virtual calls anyway.

Compilers don't get to say what you compile. People care about the speed of bad code almost as much as good code, and sometimes more: what bad code wastes, the compiler might be able to give some of back.

Code that has a preponderance of vtables is usually bad code written by Java transplants who haven't learned the right way to code C++. But that code has to run, too.
Bullet hell shmup with a time-travel mechanic. After you get enough hand-wavey energy/points/kills/whatever, you can warp back to some earlier point and play alongside your previous run(s).

I envision kinda puzzle-inspired gameplay: use your skills to navigate the bullet hell, take out high-value enemies; then warp back to clear even more of the screen, or take on previously-unassailable obstacles.

I have lots of peripheral (and conflicting) ideas floating around the core mechanic. For example, maybe you could also spend your warp energy on a high-damage beam that connects your ship with a previous iteration, so you can sweep around the screen with it. Maybe some barriers or enemies can only be quickly destroyed by that beam; otherwise it takes ages and more skill than I possess. Maybe you can siphon your ghost runs so that they disappear before they actually warped back.

Every level should maaaaybe be possible to complete in a single run, if only just. I’m not sold on that though because it seems like it could limit the level design. There should definitely be some kind of bonus for completely clearing the level of all enemies, no matter how many times you have to warp. These two things are in tension.

The whole concept came to me after I played Braid, and from watching more skilled players shuffle their ships through the beautiful onscreen patterns that difficult bullet hell shooters tend to have, especially at the higher levels. I had a very barebones proof of concept of the main mechanic working at one point in FlashPunk, which tells you how long ago it was. I think the premise has some value though. I mean, I’d play it.
- Factorio crossed with Terraria.

- Terraria-like game mechanics, without the cutesyness, and set in a Warhammer 40k, Path of Exile, or cyberpunk universe.

- A game like Sethian, but where there's much more actual learning of an "alien" language instead of the dumbed-down version of learning Sethian has.

- Zachtronics-like games that are closer to actual programming instead of being just puzzle games with a programming veneer.

- A much more performant version of Screeps.

- Single-player PvE MUDs with rich worlds where you can actually interact with everything you read in room descriptions and where the rooms aren't mostly the same.

- More 2D games.

- More games targeted at intelligent people rather than the lowest common denominator.
I speak to a couple of users directly through email. An Apple Watch companion seems to be what people want the most so that’s what I’ll be working on next
What does organic mean to you? Sans synthetic fertlizer? Sans GM?

We should probably stop using synthetic fertilizer and large-scale monoculture system. But to truly address climate change and environmental degradation, you should really consider GM as a solution.

The most likely path to a sustainable food system incorporates GM crops but leaves behind the destructive framework which was built around the first GM varieties.(roundup ready monoculture systems)
> (but at least Organic has at least some science behind it)

Not very much: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organic_food

From the perspective of science and consumers, there is insufficient evidence in the scientific and medical literature to support claims that organic food is either substantially safer or healthier to eat than conventional food.[7]
It's always confusing to me when I see this signal because I never have Google fall on its face so badly that I wish verbatim came back.

I am one of those let go today. It's especially bad, because they seem to have messed up the invite templates. I received one to the Town Hall meeting, even before Majus letter was published, only to get the invitation cancelled and receive and invitation to "Bolt Restructuring". What an emotional rollercoaster. Extremely anxious about the future, as this is my first time being laid off, especially in the current market.

EDIT: I am doubly screwed because I signed up for the employee stock option loan program... and I'm not sure what the bank will want from me now that the stock price has tanked.

I can't recall where exactly I saw OpenZiti, it was probably from some discussion on HN. I went to look at it and thought it looked promising, but I'm already partway down the path of Nebula, and as you say it's partly because of Nebula having Slack experience behind it, partly because I have some experience with it, partly I like the architecture. I'll take a peek at OpenZiti again and refresh my understanding of it.
Mixture of Satisfactory and Subnautica where you build intricate factories under water and the surface is dangerous because of periodical hailstorms that would wreck your buildings there and scorching heat that makes the hail melt and maybe even briefly boil the surface.

As game progresses climate get worse and you are forced to retreat to greater depths with your factories and you need to research technologies that enable that in time.

INTRO: you crashland in a small capsule, much like in Subanutica. You have a multitool with a pocket dimension for inventory but it doesn't let you deconstruct the capsule. So you scout around in shallow waters not being able to do much because multitool is not suitable for biomatter. You find a cave with a pocket of air. Then the first hail comes. Initially it's not that bad but gets larger so it starts dealing damage to you. It could kill you if you didn't retreat into the cave you found underwater. It ends quickly but as you emerge you find out that your capsule was broken into pieces. This time your multitool has no trouble of recovering scrap materials and placing them in the pocket dimension along with a fission battery that miraculously survived. You are building enclosed space under water larger than your capsule but with thinner walls. It's still full of water but you build your first water electrolizer powered for now with recovered fission battery. Oxygen is used for pumping out water to provide space for machines you can build inside. With the structure full of oxygen your suit can create breathable atmosphere inside of itself. Fire would be disastrous, but you are hoping at some point you'll be able to find ways to produce inert gasses to make interior safer. Hydrogen is stored to provide your constructions with neutral bouyancy. You fashion out a knife out of scrap and go out to look for something to eat. You submerge your first building a bit deeper but only as deep as thin walls allow. You are starting to wonder how will you get power when fission battery runs out. You scan your environment with the use of the multitool and when you find useful materials AI of your multitool unpacks new construction plans and production recipes that let you build more and explore further.

Tens or hundreds of hours later you float quite deep admiring your sprawling web of minifactories connected by flexible conduits carrying various material and parts at dazzling speed. Most of the connections go even deeper to rare mineral mines but some go up to get some ice from massive hail that periodically strikes to be utilized for cooling (when summer arives) and for extraction of substances only available in the atmosphere of the planet that get captured in the hail as it forms there. Apart from wildlife there are small drones around that swim in swarms and maintain your structures and upgrade them when it's time submerge them deeper. You wonder, what this planet throws at you next and how bad will it affect your operations and plans.
Drew can often be very abrasive, but does it really matter in this case? His site is basically being DDoS'd.

Yes, there are decent arguments why the golang infra doesn't cache or respect typical norms like robots.txt, but they don't change the unreasonableness of the underlying situation. Surely some mitigation could have been worked out in the year since the ticket was filed?
What are the benefits that this functional options style offers? Is it that you can add more options without having to define a new field in a struct?

One could even add all the With methods to the struct to get some fluent/builder pattern.

Edit: is it so that you don’t need to instantiate a new struct at each call site?
> also he (used to) spam the issue tracker with ads for his services

Do you have links to those ad spams? I couldn't find obvious ones when I was using GitHub's issue search field.

Edit: It seems ddevault opened and/or replied to only 10 issues, which I would hardly call "spam".
I want a game, driven by AI, whose sole reward metric is my biological response, like maximize heart rate, eye dilation, adrenaline, etc.

I want to see if an AI can break me.
> a vast, vast amount of data, because the product involved constant streams of sensor data from a vast number of tiny cheap devices

Even that depends on a lot of factors. Just as an example, if it takes $10 to build and deploy a sensor, and it returns one number per second, then $1 of RAM can hold 2+ years of data before archiving it.
Only works on latest macOS. Also you have to wait a bit for the OCR to take place and there are no indication whatsoever the system is working on it. When it’s done, you can simply select the text.

The Prehistory of NFTs
I am 19 and my parents raised me all-analog(tv and books only) with computer use sprinkled in as needed. Of all my friends I am the happiest and most productive. I am not trying to say I am better, but please consider treating the internet the way we used to(use it for learning and talking to close friends only). It has brought me great returns and the people I've inducted into this cult agree. Reorienting from consuming the lives of the collective to making things just for yourself feels weird at first, but do it long enough and you get this infectious sense of pride and confidence which I've never felt in my attempts to integrate with the social media grid
> People will rave about "heirloom" tomatoes (and some are delicious, currently trying to grow my own) but they are just as mutant as the bland supermarket ones.

I don't know about them being mutants but they definitely look monstrous! They're a thing on the Mediterranean seaside (both in Spain and France for sure). I only buy these, they're yummy...

EDIT: BTW people don't despise genetically modified food for fun... They puke on it because the attempt at creating killer seeds that'd make sure to kill non-genetically modified ones while also making sure that everybody would have to buy the seeds from Monsanto and the like. I'll push for genetically modified ones if that's accompanied with very strong guarantees that people/companies attempting to corner the market like that will end up rotting in jail.

Growing high water use crops (alfalfa, rice, cotton, almonds, etc.) for export outside the US doesn't seem like it would be good water policy for California.
Oh I didn't, but I (shockingly) didn't think it was relevant here in comparison to the $355M dollars that they recently raised. Even an expensive lawsuit would be unlikely to put a big enough dent in that to materially affect their runway, and it's not like "losing more sales" can make their existing revenue much lower (again, in comparison to a $355M war chest).
FFXIV doesn’t really have mandatory grind. They instead make the main story actually good (better than most other FF games) and so people will buy the expansion packs even if they don’t stick around every other month.
Looks great and the price is right as well.
It is a shame it is not PoE, that would have been perfect.
This is actually a great deal when the exercise price is low enough. You pay a nominal-ish amount up front to exercise early and all gains are LTCG. It is not a good deal in any situation where you’re not getting in close to the ground floor though, if the exercise cost itself is substantial.
There are tons of strategies, that is one of them. Many people use it. Doesn't mean this is the right one for everyone.

This comes with risk too. You are at the mercy of the tiktok/YT/IG algo instead of the Google algo. There's lots of work that goes into making content that is engaging and liked on social media. Having your community is not enough because even if you have 20K followers, if your content is not engaging, people won't see it in their feed.

As for relying strictly on word of mouth? Sure, but that's likely a minority of brands. Most people need the distribution from one of the big tech co.
If you are implying there is some sort of ethical harm in undertaking this kind of work, I can assure you the thought was crossing my mind the entire time. My choices were ultimately:

1. Implement this product as specified, doing everything in my power to ensure rules are being followed throughout.

2. Quit my job in protest, bringing down my tiny startup company. 10 people are immediately out of work. Our client finds someone else to implement chex for them anyways.
I no longer use Tor either (unless I have to for work projects such as remote pentesting).

What is you opinion of Landlock (Linux kernel 5.13 and newer)? If we wrap vanilla FireFox in LandLock, proxy that to tor and use Apparmor/Tomoyo to further limit what FireFox could do (when it gets compromised) then I think that would be a much safer approach than using the Tor Browser Bundle.

Here's a landlock wrapper (in Go) for FireFox: https://github.com/62726164/misc/blob/main/go/landlock/firef...

Also, I've only ever been able to get Tomoyo to work as MAC for FireFox. SELinux and Apparmor were too difficult.
