A probably useless tool to replace words in text files.

Speaking of backend development, recently I gave Jooby[1] a try after discovering it was one of the world's top performer in Tech Empower's web framework benchmark[2].

Surprisingly enough, it's terribly easy to put together a REST API with Jooby. I was expecting a lot of arcane tricks to set things up, but it's one of the less.verbose frameworks out there.

I wonder why it's adoption rate is so low.

> I'm more interested in this phenomena with hedge funds treating short term cap gains as long term.

I think what GP means is, your fund has some trading profits, which if an individual did the same trades would be taxed as earned income or short term gains, but the fund actually doesn't have profits or pay taxes at all - it's a pass through entity. You, as an individual investor in the fund, pay taxes (long term or short term cap gains as appropriate) when you exit your investment in the fund.

This is a pretty reasonable way for capital gains taxes to work. The secret sauce successful hedge funds have is not access to this tax optimization, but some way to actually generate those trading profits in the first place.
Fine idea, but I believe the better issue to tackle here is:

- how do I easily create and display how-to guides?

Maybe it's just me, but how-to videos are not as easily consumable as a simple step-by-step guide on a single page. All tools, I've tried for creating the latter, suck. Any ideas for that? :)
Out of curiosity, what gains do you see and where?

Another benefit to the Fediverse is that many clients exists to the same backend, and they all have access to the same API / features. No "official" or "third-party" clients or apps, which has proven to encourage developers to make apps for many platforms (JS, android, iOS, TUIs, GNOME, KDE, etc)

This isn’t true, the US has defaulted or suspended payment multiple times going back to the Revolution when it was the Continental Congress, the War of 1812, the Civil War, and more recently in the 20th century through many artful disguises to avoid technical default.
It is beneficial for their chips: the driver will work exactly as advertised and tested. The drivers do not break clones on purpose, the drivers simply don’t enable clones to work.

Write your own driver if you want to use the clones. It is not Prolific’s job to support hardware they didn’t design, build and test.

Even more importantly it is not Prolific’s job to support competitors who are not going to respect Prolific’s IP.
Just a PSA: "reactionary" doesn't mean "in reaction to". It specifically refers to opposition to social change ("reject modernity, embrace tradition"), and opposition to liberalism and progressivism in particular, like a conservative over-correction (not just rejecting further changes but a desire to revert to an idealized previous state that never was).

Of course the descriptivist in me would say that "reactionary" can also just mean "in reaction to" if enough people just use it that way and that people have picked up the political term through cultural osmosis and apply it to reactions in general validates this meaning, so make of that what you will.

Well. It's a 1 line implementation in APL. The 200 lines are there so that Forth can emulate enough of APL to execute the 1-liner.
> USD has the same issue. The dollars continually get "used up" and need reprinted.

> Virtually every currency is negative-sum, destroying value every time they are spent.

What?! This is not even remotely close to accurate.
> I don't think this is very useful, since "yeah but without society there are no companies, money is nothing" doesn't take us very far!

This reminds me there always exists a path between the current society & a completely different one, and a short path to something completely different is to start from scratch.
Your definition of sabotage is quite broad and creative. There is no damage to the hardware. The driver is simply not operating with hardware that Prolific didn’t get paid to support.

Today, Layer goes open-source to make machine learning more accessible
Afaik, on pretty much every modern car the single main antenna unit (usually the shark fin on the roof) handles cellular and GPS (Rx only) and radio (AM/FM, and often also weather/traffic, Rx only).

So you'll lose the other things if you put it in a Faraday cage.

A cage is a bad way to do it anyway. It's easier to disconnect the cable between the antenna & the telematics module (which has the SIM and control electronics in it). Or disconnect the power to the telematics module. Etc. Depending on the wiring harness style and design of the car's electronics, that may also let you disconnect just the cellular antenna while leaving the GPS/radio antennas connected.

In the future we might see those components getting integrated together... But you can always physically destroy/remove the antenna.
Allow me to summarize this perspective as the future of "cognitive ergonomics" of sorts and second entirely the idea that it's the biggest promise of VR from an experience standpoint. Literally immersion in a wider context, not deliberate focus that by very definition a narrow viewport already covers quite well. Conversely to physical displays, contextual ergonomics is where VR must shine.

The way you expressed it actually reminds me of Iain McGilchrist's "left brain" versus "right brain" thinking model, wherein the narrow-ish "task-focused" approach is typical left-brain concern (essentialist, to a fault), whereas the wider "contextual" approach is typical right-brain associative concerns ("everything is complex/connected"). I'd never noticed this ergonomics question (should I say dichotomy) could be neurologically framed that way, thanks for the insight.
I might need to learn APL. It seems like I'm missing out on something. Lisp was a gift which helped with my C and Elixir. That was a mini-revelation in itself.

Basically the switch becomes a simple boolean input to the Shelly - the actual module is always powered. This allows you to turn it on via the network and turn off at the switch if you wanted to, or completely detach the switch from the actual light and only use it as an input to your home automation controller (maybe you want to use it to toggle a different light than the one it's connected to?).

For no-neutral operation they sell bypass resistors that you can put in parallel with your light to pass through enough current to keep the Shelly powered on.

This sentence:

> Blew up a lot of retailer investors funds through his SPACs although he himself Madeoff quite well given the closing conditions.

does not seem to be comparable or descriptively equivalent to this part:

> CLOV, SPCE, SOFI. If you bought in during the SPAC stage or at IPO, you'd have lost quite a bit on any of these.

Was your reference to "Madeoff" intended to convey a ponzi scheme? Because that doesn't seem to be what those investments are.

Instead googling indicates these are real companies that appear to be operating, albeit in challenging businesses.

I generally like NextDNS, but the customer service is _literally_ non-existent. About a week after becoming a paying member, I had an issue where requests wouldn't resolve at all, and there was no way to move forward, and there was no way to get help from the NextDNS team. So, a good service, but not so great for your family members who can't track down solutions to issues like that themselves.

I agree. Fathers should be included in language. I think it's extremely important that father's are recognized as critical to a child's upbringing, and truly commend you for being present for your little one!

But here lies the problem with "inclusive language": many schools argue that the terms mother, father, and parent are not inclusive.

Instead, terms like "caregiver" or "responsible adult" should be used, to include children who are raised by grandparents or adoped. The desire was to make sure father's were recognized. In a backwards way, suddenly no one was recognized.

If it's bad for society to not recognize the value of fatherhood, is this not a complete rejection of parenthood, and exclusion of children who have a nuclear family? But when you dig into the inclusivity crowd, you keep finding ridiculous things, like the idea that the nuclear family is white supremacy, and needs to be dismantled by erasing the language that supports systemic racism. Children with two biological parents are privileged, so they can yield their privilege and not have their family acknowledged with the terminology used.

Just keep pulling on the thread, and now we're referring to "birthing people" instead of women.

My house is valuable to me even if there isn't a collective belief in it. Most financial assets are backed to some extent by real assets.

I'm happy enough to put value in USD or imaginary-coin if I can swap my holdings in them for a nice house/car/jet. You don't really need "economic, military and even cultural might" - just for the currency to be accepted somewhere where you can buy real assets and for the supply to be limited so it doesn't inflate to nothingness.

Sure - mainland uses simplified Chinese script (in order to increase literacy), whilst Hong Kong and ROC continue to use traditional Chinese script. PRC went through a similar process with Chinese literacy as the US did with Americanisation of English spelling, though of course the Communists went top down mandate, whilst the Americans relied on the successful distribution of spelling guides and dictionaries.

In relation to this story, one of the key artefacts evidentialising the claims actually is contains traditional Chinese characters. A comparator would be if CIA document that uses English spellings, a significant incongruity. To a Chinese reader, this would be obvious but of course the audience for this was Western market

And at some point in the "not too distant future", everything will be running on 5G/6G, and at that point i guess it doesn't matter anymore. I'll revert to the tried and true methods of applying painters tape over cameras/sensors.

Doesn’t work on mobile. Is that a limitation with this no-code platform or just not implemented?
the point is your belief is not relevant, it's the belief of the counterpart to any transaction that may involve your house ("the market").
You can say that about anything though. Most people aren't writing code or building binaries, so you might as well take the ability of the end user to write code or run any unsigned unauthorized executables on their PCs. Also most people aren't running old ass executables, so screw backwards compatibility too. I'm sure it will make operating systems a lot less complex if you do down that path, but most people here would revolt if that was done by any OS vendor.
What percentage of consumers want that? I’m guessing the market is close to zero.

I don't even understand the joke, it doesn't seem funny. The original comic isn't funny either.

>haha women have to do what we say.

I'd flag that too tbh. Clearly posting a linux command in a vacuum is not going to get your account locked (nice clickbait title though), there is the whole context of a shitty joke.

If you don't at least acknowledge that the joke could be interpreted wrong, but instead mald on your blog, and ramble on HN about muh free speech elon mask blah blah censorship, you should probably have your account banned.
Also thanks for sharing, however your second picture in the header screams to me that Streamdeck + sand doesn't go well together and looks like a common combination when kids plus outside play settings are combined. You mention a waterproof enclosure but I doubt the streamdeck itself is IP rated. I suspect a thin transparent sheet over the top would fix that though, or do you just replace the streamdeck every so often?
I don’t see any screenshots in the story containing text. Can you elaborate?
In 6.0 it will.
Not the GP, but I also use YK as a primary auth mechanism and TOTO as fallback.

Since I only use TOTP as fallback, I am much more vigilant if I suddenly get a TOTP prompt. I should never get one, only in circumstances where I explicitly want one. Every other instance is a big red flag. Is that perfect? No. Is it better than TOTP: yes.

>The only profitable division of the company is its Complaints Department, which, according to the series, takes up the major landmasses on three planets. The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy defines its marketing division as "a bunch of mindless jerks who'll be the first against the wall when the revolution comes," and an edition of the Encyclopedia Galactica that had the good fortune to fall through a time warp from a thousand years in the future defines the marketing division of the Sirius Cybernetics Corporation as "a bunch of mindless jerks who were the first against the wall when the revolution came."

> “We have reports from Ukrainians that when they find Russian military equipment on the ground, it’s filled with semiconductors that they took out of dishwashers and refrigerators,”

The war (and thus sanctions) has only been going on for a couple of months so I doubt it's due to sanctions, so if it is true then I'd expect it to be caused by the general chip shortage, however I also doubt it since I'd expect Russia to have a big enough weapons stockpile to not have burnt through all of it in the span of a few months as to need to scavenge components from household appliances to make more.

"So what actually makes the US dollar work as a currency is that it is backed by the long dick of the US government. This is a combination of economic, military and even cultural might."

It's the ability to demand and enforce tax payments in that denomination - with the consequence of not doing that being you will lose property and liberty.

Obtaining the denomination to settle the tax then becomes the discounted option, since the other option is far more expensive.

That alone makes the currency worth holding, since you can always get rid of it to somebody with a tax bill to pay.

As we have seen with Russia that power extends wherever the denomination is used. The US government has 'taxed' Russia anything it holds denominated in US dollars - completely unilaterally and wherever it was held.
