This is actually a really classic use of the 'ad hominem' to try and reject the argument by attacking the source. I do agree that Metro is a bad source, however if you read the article, you'd find it's not actually that bad.

I say this because NPR was running the same angle yesterday, and several "more reputable" sources are reporting the same thing as well.

Frankly, for DDG to spend all this money blasting "we actually care about privacy" advertisements in radio and online, and then to play around like this, it's certainly dangerous. That advertising campaign is probably why news outlets are even discussing this. "You defined your brand standard, why shouldn't we hold you to it".

I'm sure their marketing folks are upset! All that money on a message, undone in a flash.

I do agree about the Ubuntu part. For the updates, if the intent is just to test KDE in a live environment, this part should be up to date and frequent updates should not be an issue.

I would recommend against using KDE Neon daily though. Or Ubuntu by the way. It used to be a really good distro, but it's not so much today I think.

You can't claim a capital loss unless you paid the overvalued price. And then you just lost money anyways.
But then it would be on par with Flask, both performance wise and with regards to integration with third party libraries. That is how I'm currently using FastAPI, with regular sync SQLAlchemy for example.

The difference is that even without the benefits of async, FastAPI offers a vastly better developer experience IMHO, with its integration with Pydantic, Python type hints and the lack of reliance on global objects
> Just using one key as your primary authentication adds a lot of security

Yeah, and look just how often people lose or wash their phones or their keys, or how easy it is to break off a Yubikey that is on a keychain (e.g. when a cat pulls on it). Then you are usually royally screwed.
The core feature of their product is "we will discard all the data on the internet except 10 links". They already "censor" nearly everything.

It is completely reasonable to question their algorithms and processes. I don't see why Russian disinformation needs to be singled out given what is allowed in the corporate press every time the US starts a fight somewhere (can they please downrank all sociopath war mongers?). But while it may be political activism it isn't censorship. If you use DDG you ask for them to make judgement calls.
I moved from DDG to metager and coudn't be happier.
It certainly contributed to it. IMO, the major killer was social media reducing the need for personal websites and blogs for most folks, and now silos like Discord, which don't allow information to be indexed on search engines, unlike traditional forums.

FWIW, I still run a personal site/blog, used to be very active on social media too, but am quite disenchanted with the idea of paying to reach your own audience.

Food for thought: why do people still use consoles inspite of all the progress made so far?

If you answer is inertia, think again.
No, there hasn't been any backtracking on this. The full quote continues "On Google, you get results tailored to what they think you’re likely to click on, based on the data profile they’ve built on you over time."

Unlike other search engines (like Google), we don’t alter search results based on someone’s previous search history. In fact, since we don’t track our users we don’t have access to search histories at all. Those other search engines show you results based on a data profile about you and your online activity (including your search history), and so can be slanted towards what they think you will click on the most based on this profiling. This effect is commonly known as the search filter bubble, but using DuckDuckGo can help you escape it.

This does not mean our search results are generally “unfiltered” because, for every search you make online, a search engine’s job is to filter millions of possible results down to a ranked order of just a handful. In other words, a search engine has to use algorithms programmed by people to determine what shows up first in the list of results, what shows up second, and so on. Otherwise, for every search you’d just get a completely random set of results, which of course wouldn’t be very useful.

However, we do this ranking in a strictly non-partisan manner, and not based on my politics (or anyone's for that matter). I left another comment here on how that works: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31557837

"It clearly won't retain how the subtle variations of an analogue drum computer no matter how many pictures I takes."

Yes it can, it's all just waves. Results will depend on your sampler, settings and audio signal chain. Now if it's just the analog vs digital (44.1k/16b) difference you're hearing then, to use your photography analogy, you're pixel peeping. Insignificant, especially in the final mix, especially on consumer reproduction gear.

"Now to be fair the latest MPC line (X/Live II/ One) do have a complete emulation of an analogue drum computer on board since version 2.9 I believe."

So which is it? Is it a complete emulation or does it clearly not retain the subtle variations of an analogue drum computer?

The lack of inflation was literally the lack of use of the "extra money". When the fed started buying assets and giving "new money", a lot of banks held onto that money instead of using it. The fed paid interest on holdings at the federal reserve bank.

It took a while for banks to extend themselves based on capital like they did prior to 2008. Once they did, the full extend of the "new money" drove inflation.
> But it parses fine as the sum of the product of s, i, and n(x), and the product of c, o, and s(x).

No it doesn't because math lexes greedily (and is also context sensitive anyway.) 'sin' is a symbol just like 'x'. There's no ambiguity in your example.

_maybe_ but it's not a guarantee. You still need a heating element in the dishwasher as there's no guarantee that the hot water is actually at the correct temperature. If the supply is a hot water tank, the tank might not be full, and in an on demand system you might have cold water in the pipes.

> It's not as if the dishwasher hoards very much water for a load.

Apologies if I misread this but dishwashers absolutely _do_ hoard and reuse water. My dishwasher claims to use about 12l of water for a full wash, which really isn't much at all.
Ask HN: Looking for webdesign templates for a consulting/software dev company
I've been doing webdesign for many years for a number of customers. For my own company/brand I struggle to create something I'm really happy with. Having created multiple MVPs to evaluate design decisions and none of them are really satisfying, I'm looking for a ready-to-use solution. They don't have to be free, I'm perfectly happy to pay for a good product. My company is focused on consulting, software development, project management, testing, etc. The services we provide get billed by the hour (time and material).

Because this "project" is already taking too much time I'm thinking about using a design template that reflects the current Zeitgeist and looks unique enough to be used more or less "out of the box" so I can move on with my life. Maybe some small modifications on the colors and typeface.

A lot of design templates I have found are tailored to product companies that have content elements (heros, placement of images, listings, price tables, etc.) to promote a concrete product. I've tried to use such a design template for my context (consulting, not product) but I always end up having to change too much that it doesn't make any sense to start with the design template in the first place.

I tried to get some inspiration from pages like Behance [1] and the like but very little fits for consulting. I like online tools like the "No-code website builder for startups" from designmodo [2] but they also seem to be more product oriented.

I'd apreciate some links and tips on design templates for consulting companies.

Hi everyone,

So this is something that I'm trying to build for College students where they can buy/sell their extra stuff within their campus and also some of the items made using their skills such as Handicrafts or Artworks.
This is to make them financially empower in someway. As Indian students usually depend on their parents or guardians unlike the foreign students.

Would love to hear the feedback from you guys to improve it.

Thanks

$100-$500 is a drop in the bucket for projects of this scale.
That’s where I found Netcup. Hasn’t let me down.
Exactly.

A VC putting in $1M for a Series B and getting $100M out is within the realm of possible.

Buying $10M of public stock and having it turn into $1B isn't quite so realistic, at least not on a continued basis that an investing thesis would require.
> there were two systems in China that had recently broken this barrier

Allegedly broken this barrier. There is a reason that science is conducted in the open, in a reproducible and traceable manner. Those systems might not function properly at scale, or might not have run at an exaflop in double precision compute.

Frontier is certainly the first publicly verified system to achieve Exascale on the internationally accepted standard measurement.

Everything in your system from the keyboard/mouse, the USB charger, the USB chipset, the SSD, the monitor, even the CPU itself etc all have some compute capability running firmware of some kind implementing protocols for transferring data or instructions. Probably most of them have some sort of vulnerabilities in the protocol parsing. I think the best analogy is microservices.

The business model of the internet is ads.
I think this is just a normal PWA,though. In fact, I think this is a rather website-like PWA at that, with the obvious links at the top.

This is the system Google intends PWAs to be, just quick, snappy, easily accessible websites that behave like they belong on your device. Sadly, most "apps" seem to copy the bloated, heavy, mostly JS-based approach we find in native apps, which is besides the point. Take the Twitter web-app, for example, that's a bloated mess that needs some serious optimisation. The alternative front-end, Nitter.net, does a lot better in almost every aspect. It's fast, accessible, and does just about everything except writing tweets and putting together a wall of followed accounts for you.

I like mastodon but I still prefer a native app over the web UI because it just feels that little bit too "web" for me. The main advantage obviously isn't the UI but the decentralized nature of the platform; a clean UI just helps them be a better alternative for the closed ecosystem of traditional social media.

I would happily use Tether, Shib, beanie babies, USD as medium of exchange if I trusted that the exchange took place in a timeline I wanted. I'm not comfortable holding tether for more than a few minutes, and I'm not comfortable holding USD for more than a few years.

The problem is getting stuck holding the asset for a long period of time. USD will lose 80% of it's value over the next 50 years. Tether likely will lose 100% in that time frame.
This. Why would anyone subject himself to appliances connected to the Intertnet with stupid software, poor security and push updates that take away ownership and make your life miserable.

But the worst isn't that such appliances exist. That would just be opt-in, the worst is that entire lines of products become "smart" and if you want to avoid all that complexity, surface of failure, surface of attack, and in short, headaches, you just have no option.

Try to find a "dumb" TV with more than 32". It's basically impossible in my country. There's no such thing. I've been trying to replace my old TV since 2019 and I see I won't be able unless I get into the second-hand market, which of course will dry up of such products one day.

Then you go to complain to your techie community and you get responses like "just don't connect it to the internet dude!". It's depressing to see that so many techies miss the point entirely.
If you think the distribution of disinformation is uniform across both sides, you've also been brainwashed good. There is plenty of peer-reviewed research on this, but here are two that I found after brief searching:

yeah, I've kind of felt since DDG first showed up, it's weird that people just take it at face value. IMO, privacy first === open source, everything else is smoke and mirrors.
This "collective belief" is somewhat more than mere "belief".

It has been translated into laws and social contracts backed by established enforcement that is sufficiently effective and has been demonstrated to the satisfaction and judgment of most people.

It's true that in the event of nuclear war, this could all evaporate --- but this probabilty is low enough for most people to reasonably ignore. Labeling this a "belief" is thus somewhat disingenous in the fact that it is reason rooted in logic and judgment and probability.
I'm not familiar with the market, but it sounds viable.

I've used xournalapp++ recently mostly to sketch diagrams as I would on paper. I don't see it as a real note taking, just paper replacement.

That said what you said is absolutely true and in my projects idea folder I called this "Inner knowing". The main problem is that note taking apps are marketed as a replacement for human memory ("brain dump", "second brain", etc). Hence they create a dependency on them as they decrease the ability to remember. When infact what we need is the opposite.
