Yes! Everyone should know that about clothes, forgot to mention it. I found a shirt I liked in a department store, probably Izod but I don't remember now, and they didn't have my size. Went online, to the mfg site, and that shirt was like 20% cheaper, and had my size. Now I just order direct!

My kid loves her Gap clothes I buy super cheap from gap factory outlet online. 5 bucks for shirts, maybe 10 or 15 for jeans.

I'm struggling to see the point of department store clothing if they do nothing but mark up clothes.

It's in the city's response to this article: https://sacramentocityexpress.com/2022/04/19/city-corrects-m...

Reading between the lines here, the most likely course of events is pretty obvious: he let non-operational vehicles sit in his backyard indefinitely while 'working' on them (i.e. thinking about working on them and putting it off until next week every time), those turned into rats' nests (fed, at least in part, by the uncollected fruit from the trees on the same property), and the neighbors started complaining about rats everywhere that they couldn't do anything about because most of them were living on the guy's unmaintained property.

I don’t think much can be learned from this war aside from some interesting drone and mortar tech.

Russia’s performance has just been so poorly executed. Learning lessons on the general state of modern warfare would be a terrible training set.
It's interesting to see the 30% pop up again in this context. That is roughly the percent who are Trump supporters in the US and there are similar fears that with various voting impediments and fraud that is enough to win.

Are there other populations where the 30% figure holds up in this context?
"Supply" as in inventory is a totally different concept from the actual structural supply of housing. To say housing is supply bound is simply wrong. Inventory is low now and will be high in 6-12 months.

To extrapolate out permanent conclusions from a point in time inventory metric is completely flawed analysis.

I'll refer you to the generationally low inventory in the 2000s, coupled with similar widespread shortage narratives. It won't end via the same mechanism, but each bubble is unique.

Inventory will continue to rapidly increase as rates stay over 5%

And again, rate of construction relative to population growth is at an all time high. Every narrative around a supply shortage focused on inventory is clearly and obviously flawed/wrong
The more people refuse to allow new housing in their area, the more thus makes sense, to be funded by tax on these areas.
1.6 cents per month seems pretty reasonable to solve what would otherwise just consume some of your time. An ideal world, there wouldn't be a processing fee but we don't live in that world.

Aa far as the credit card opt out, you can also freeze your credit and I believe that has a similar impact since no one can make unauthorized inquiries.
Great, thanks for your response! That sounds good. I have put it to the top of the list to be watched next. I'm not a massive Western fan but there's something about them that makes them easy to watch.

I'd mention Dead Man (1995) as a Western or Western themed movie to watch. I would give it a very similar description to yours.

I was looking for this website again for junk mail. It looked so sketchy the first time, but I’m gonna bite the bullet and see if this saves me time over the next ten years from having to throw away junk mail. $2 is worth the experiment.
"Rat infestation" is a subjective term, but multiple neighbors complaining enough about rats for fines to stack up indefinitely isn't a subjective phenomenon.
Even if that were the case, I'd still agree with OP's wording that it's a mostly unencrypted chat. It's encrypted at transit for the milliseconds it takes to reach the server. Once on the server, a third party has access to the plaintext until the end of time. It's a minimally encrypted chat.

And if the wording wasn't precise enough, context still matters more in this case. I'm sure everyone here knew what was meant, despite the familiarity with cryptography. Telegram claims your messages are "heavily encrypted" which is just false, aside from their very limited secret chat feature.

HN prefers substantive discussion, not nitpicking over semantics.
I’ve done both and it was worth it. Highly recommended.

One can also consider a mail processor if you’re nomadic or on the road often; you give out that address, pay $10-$20/month for the service, and they dispose of the junk mail and scan in only paper mail of importance for review.

Edit: will return with mail processor recommendations when not mobile.
Frankly, I try to avoid shopping on Amazon. One because of the problem you mention, but also because it's a poor deal for underlying businesses. Amazon eats most of the margin, while the underlying small businesses get the short end of the stick. Most of the time I find I can get the same items locally for the same price, and the small business simply gets a better margin. Sometimes I wonder if this disparity contributes to the scam problems.
I was trying to make recommendations that I'd be comfortable playing while a young child was in the room. I wouldn't recommend giving them to a small child to play.

It's very nice indeed, but PowerShell pipelines are at another level of beauty: think what you could do if instead of just STDOUT (and STDERR to be fair) you had data structures with names

On Windows try for the fun it:

Get-ChildItem -Path HKLM:\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\DeviceAssociationService\State\Store\ | Select-String -Pattern Bluetooth

Now look at how it parallelize the request by default, and how it returned you several columns of data per line.

Want a regex?

Get-ChildItem -Path HKLM:\SYSTEM\ControlSet001\Services\DeviceAssociationService\State\Store\ | Select-String -Pattern Bluetooth | ForEach-Object { $_ -replace 'HK.*-','' -replace ':', ''}

Want a CSV? Add "| ConvertTo-Csv"

Let's do another, to filter only devices (a named property)

Get-PnpDevice -Class 'Bluetooth' -PresentOnly | Where-Object HardwareID -match 'DEV_' | Get-PnpDeviceProperty | ConvertTo-Csv

Now I'm learning how to do better things like lambdas on the pipeline

PowerShell is weird the first time, but it's so well made it'll give you hours and hours of fun :)

Most interesting is it shows this is not a single variable issue.

There are lots of factors involved and they probably change across geographies.
I have been reading ISW's daily updates since the war started. The shift from enthusiasm for Ukraine's victories to frustration in the east has been palpable. Ukraine is fighting at its limit and Russia still inches forward. Opportunistic counteroffensives near Kherson have not yet broken out.

I want Ukraine to win quickly and decisively and every dollar we spend sending them stuff is well-spent. But I think it's going to be a slog. OTOH Ukraine will not back down and I think the Western backing is probably pretty deliberate, serious, and long-term. We want this to be Russia's second Afghanistan. But Afghanistan is about what I'm expecting.

Grimly, I am somewhat satisfied that Europeans are being reminded of the fury they must summon when an enemy arrives aiming to crush them like ants.

Regen braking works by letting off the accelerator, not by pressing the brake.
For a given gravity, temperature, salinity and life cycle there are a single best and more efficient solution for moving and survive. Evolution will prune all the bad paths so with enough time will go closer and closer to the more efficient design, Crabs evolved to protect their delicate eggs from mud and debris. You need that if you pass most of your time hiding buried in the mud.

This means also that with enough data about other planets we could even made a raw guess the shape of creatures that could live there.
Author here: it actually doesn't break. Been running it for 1,5 years. It's bash, there isn't much that can break. And it uses Docker cli with no hackery or experimental options.

The only thing I am working on right now: a way to avoid building special images for MacBooks or ARMs, but rather have a patch-tool (a bash script, essentially), which would pull any image you want from Docker Hub and then run patches on it (patches are also simple, readable Bash scripts which would work kind of like migrations for DBs), so that you will quickly have a Dock-compatible image and if you wanted a Python or a Ruby env you'd use an extra set of included patches or write your own.

It sounds more complex than it would actually work, honestly.

Designing Zero Downtime and Zero Data Loss Cluster Migrations on MinIO
A while ago I watched a video on YouTube about a guy reviving an old rs6000 workstation from ibm, running aix, with the ultimate goal of running doom.

When it talks about compilers, the c/c++ compiler suite was price at like 4 k$… although supposed/allegedly (that is, according to ibm marketing) it won over 4x over gcc (in the performance of the generated code i guess).
Fair enough, I missed that nuance.

But to be honest, I don’t care what happens 10yrs after I die. I don’t want to be surveilled for the whole time I’m alive…
They're not selling it as far as I know, but you're essentially providing them with free training data for their autopilot/self-driving AI which they do/plan to make money off of. In that respect it seems odd that they would be so stingy in handing data over to the person that generated it though you can apparently purchase a connection kit to access the event recorder data for about $3k.
Yes! It's absolutely unbelievable we allow this charade. It's usually akin to the crypto scams in that your equity is worthless.
> Makes me wish I had never spent so much time pirating in my youth.

Listen, I feel your pain, but don't feel bad about this. Streaming services didn't exist back then. The best we could do was have some reasonably-sized collection on purchased CDs that we ripped to MP3, supplemented by a digital collection acquired through ... different means.

It took the (recording) industry years before they woke up. That's not your fault.

Thinking back, I could even imagine an alternate late 90s / early 2000s, where the RIAA was tolerant of the streaming model, but most peoples' connections were still dial-up / weak broadband, so we'd all be content with ~64kbps-quality MP3 playback lol
I might have been too casual with jargon here... I used class D as a name for modern IC switching designs in place of the old class A or class AB designs that traditionally provided decent fidelity. I guess there are really quite a few classes here now and I don't really know which I have.

I bought a rather mid-level Yamaha home theater receiver with Dolby and DTS decoding back in the late 2000s, It is labeled as an HTR-6140 and must be discontinued for many years by now. It has a bunch of DSP scenes/modes. Other than wanting surround decoding and HDMI + TOSlink inputs, I did not geek out on specs. I merely assume it is class D because the whole receiver is pretty light, so no big heat sinks, and it doesn't seem to produce much waste heat compared to older receivers I've used.
There’s just “value”. People use the term “underlying value” as a proxy for “real value”, in opposition to “not real value”. You can verify that by looking at any example of its use in this thread.

I’m saying it’s a rhetorical crutch that doesn’t lead to meaningful discussion or insight.

If people acknowledged in these threads that “value” is way more complex and nebulous than these facile comparisons make it out to be, we’d have more interesting discussion.

The tracking beacons the mailshot was sent to tell people they should be worried about don't even need throwing in the trash...

Brave is using a USPS commercial mailshot service which openly encourages the use of personally identifiable information to target unsolicited marketing (name, age, income(!) and other demographic info) to promote the idea it respects privacy and opposes collecting data to run ad campaigns for third parties. That's not a great look, and explaining that actually this shouldn't have been a problem because (like the customers of Facebook, Google and most display ad networks) the service they're paying keeps the targeting data to itself is probably even worse.
Hah; yes; that'll teach me to do stuff from memory on phone :D Thx!
This is a very interesting situation for privacy respecting products.

Say you want to advertise to your potential audience, what do you do? You have very few privacy respecting methods.

1. You go with passive advertising like billboards, TV ads, blog ads etc. Not particularly effective since you can't do it across the world.

2. You go with something like Google with a huge ad network. But if you go with Google...you are tapping into and making use of personal data of your very own privacy respecting people. In a way, you are feeding the beast.

Which method should such a product go with? Which method would conform with their privacy respecting model best? Which would bring in a lot of users?

Not all ads are bad. Not all ad networks are bad. Some, very few, do it ethically. I think Brave itself is one of those. But these networks are very, very small compared to Google.

At all time the temptation is there to go with targeted ads because it's the most effective & affordable way to get potential users. The moment you do, are you still privacy respecting?

Edit: as to your question about banner ads. It depends. If you are using Google's banner ads they aren't static by any means. Google targets and rotates based on their huge database of user data. But if you just put a banner ad somewhere on a blog etc, that comes under the category of passive/non-targeted marketing.
Many e-commerce sites are guilty of this.
> As a matter of principle, I am not paying a $2 "processing fee" to stop people from sending garbage to my mailbox.

I feel like that must be relatively new. I swear I used that site and I'm pretty sure I didn't have to pay a fee.

I bet they added it to discourage people from going through with the process.
Are you saying that Wyoming doesn't have those requirements?

If they don't have anything to hide, why not allow access to the logs? I highly doubt the 0-100 claim. Raw sensor data of the accelerator is likely to be sampled at a high enough rate that should make something like that impossible. In fact, the car should have at minimum a low pass filter and reject sudden accelerations like that, which would indicate sensor or signal failure. If it's a digital sensor, and sampled high enough, even if someone did "floor it", you'd still be able to see a gradual increase, just at a faster rate. When a sensor all of a sudden reports a huge, non-linear jump, it generally means there is some sort of failure. And if that's within normal operating conditions, the sample rate of the sensor isn't enough to tell the difference between failures and intentional (real) readings, and reject a failed sensor. And that's a problem too and 101 in any sensors and signals implementation. If it's a digital sensor on something as important as braking and acceleration, there had better be redundant sensors, a mechanism to fuse the data together, and reject a bad sensor from the state estimate of the pedal.

Either way, just based on the statements they made anyone who has worked with anything robotics or autonomous can tell you that first instinct would be sensor failure. Of course, all of this is impossible to tell without the raw log data. Companies who are unwilling to provide such data or make it difficult to do so generally have something to hide in either their implementation, data quality, or the actual findings from the logs themselves.
I contacted for 10 years and managed to save up about 200k. Started at pre IPO company and walked away with 2.5m after taxes in 7 years. Big difference.
Nice, thanks for naming a project after me. :P

I also like the ALBERT lite-BERT model (https://arxiv.org/abs/1909.11942). Although this was just a matter of time. The other names which match to "*bert*" were already taken.

Anyway, going on topic: Such a project really should have a related work section, right at the beginning, because there are many existing launchers, and just say how this is different (maybe better). E.g. see here (https://alternativeto.net/software/alfred/?platform=linux). But I also would be interested on differences e.g. to Alfred (Mac). I really wonder why such comparisons are very often missing.

Also, a bit more information would be nice. Is this cross platform? Or Linux only? It seems Mac is on the todo-list (https://github.com/albertlauncher/albert/issues/1050) but I don't see a Mac binary download, so I assume it's not ready yet? Although the issue was closed.

Btw, the last commit is from on 9 Oct 2021. So maybe already abandoned?
1. Geographical decoupling. HVDC connections are barely even newsworthy anymore.

2. Smart consumers. Electrified transports are perfect where you can shift the charging to any point in time it's not actively driven. This without having to pay the round trip efficiency loss since charging the battery is valuable work.

3. Better utilize hydro to compensate for the last bits of intermittency left.

We're so far from a grid where large scale storage would be necessary that dwelling over it and putting forth nuclear as the only solution is ridiculous. You could make hydrogen from your renewable energy and then later burn it and still come out ahead of nuclear. That's how uncompetetive nuclear is.

I don't see the point of evading Dockerfiles. All of these customizations to me seem like they're just doing what you would do in a Dockerfile for creating a base image, but in a non-friendly way for people not using Dock.

From reading, there seems to be planned support for VMs, which is where the mental click is for evading dockerfiles to me, but when creating VMs you have the same thing. The equivalent (in my mind) of this for VMs exists as Multipass, where you pass a cloud-init file for configuration.

I think it's cool for playing, but if I could create a Dockerfile in the directory of the project, as simple as "FROM ubuntu:latest" and when I run Dock it takes this Dockerfile and then builds a new image ontop of it (with all these customizations, dropping me into a shell) that is where this would shine to me. It may just be a workflow thing, but if I am building a container, I am already building Dockerfiles. They're not just for Docker, many many tools use them for containers more generically.

The painful part when building a container is when I am doing something decently involved (e.g. implementing a proprietary software daemon & driver for a German camera manufacturer that has to have custom udev rules and many, many customizations,) and just want to extend my natural terminal environment into that space to explore what's up. Then when I am done, I should be able to run docker build and get the clean, bare container. It's very rare that I just need an arbitrary container that will go away when working on a project. Periodically I may generate an ubuntu pod or something, but it goes away fast and generally lives for less than 10 commands.

With that being said, I don't mean to poo-poo, as I do really like the aesthetic, the documentation is beautiful, and the thought put into it. I just don't see where it fits into my (or many people I know)'s workflow pretty much strictly because of the Dockerfile thing. Some of the other tools look cool though, so I threw a buck or two in the hat :)
Bad title. Dropping from extremely expensive to very expensive is NOT crashing. It is still a lot more expensive than DDR4 with no matching performance gains, so it is a false statement. Luna was a crash, not a 20% price reduction.

More seriously, what appeals to me about films like that is how 'real life' crime (as far as I can know) is not like a glamourised action movie. It is more haphazard, and contingent on personal decisions and people's character flaws.

For me, the line 'I am sorry I called you an inanimate object. I was upset' is more real than any number of Godfather movies.

I think they’re trying to say that “higher construction costs” is literally the “multi-million dollar bids” to own property without going through a HOA.

For the average person, this makes the land and construction costs unobtainable for the average person, effectively creating a monopoly for the builders and the HOA organizations with deep pockets to bid.
