> more single points of failure

Multiple single points of failure is an oxymoron. Either there is one point of failure and it's "single", or there are multiple and by definition no longer "single".

Thank you all for your feedback, thoughts, help and comments!
You and I have very different career experiences. I have worked for 5 Fortune-100 technology companies over the past 20 years and never once did I feel like I was an expendable resource. Outside one particular experience, every one of my managers (Directors, Sr Directors) treated everyone with respect and honesty. Furthermore, they were genuinely concerned about health and family issues (family health, PTO, etc). Even in my current role, my company goes out of its way to provide a solid work-life balance (additional PTO for COVID, extra volunteer time, etc).

I hope others on HN have had the opportunity to work in places such as these...
Yep lost my phone when I was outside the US. Couldn’t get it replaced for a month and lost all access to any accounts that had 2FA set up for that amount of time. It’s also almost impossible to get your sim replaced when you can’t show up in person and show identification I learned.
The law itself may have stifled the creation of other power systems; we may have had micro-usb-G by now without it
It is Open Source, but under a Non-Free License (PolyForm Noncommercial License 1.0.0).
Indeed, but that's not really a good source to estimate market share as there will be a strong bias towards stacks that are more conspicuous.
JPEG XL is the standard to beat them all. Like how Opus became the definitive codec for lossy compression for the web.

JPEG XL covers nearly every use case for images, even replacing GIFs with it's animation support.

Existing JPEGs can also be re-encoded losslessly into JPEG XL format/data structure and get significant file size savings. This backwards compatiability is very important in transitioning to web to JPEG XL seamlessly.

What I'm most excited about for JPEG XL is progressive decoding, I had been following the FLIF project for a while and was disappointed with it's lack of adoption. But it's future found itself in JPEG XL.

Without a doubt 5 years now JPEG XL will become like Opus and set the standard for next generation image formats.
I read an article in the newspaper about this which quotes analysts saying this isn't about Target trying to fix its prices, but because Target is trying to recover from a series of big mistakes.

Apparently, it handled the start of the pandemic poorly and couldn't keep anything in stock. Then just as the winter wave started to ease, it bet big that people would continue to stay locked up and bought tons of home improvement things it should have had in stock a year ago.

Personally, my Target runs have gone from every other week to almost never, because it simply doesn't seem to ever have the things I want and need anymore.

I would agree with this.

It may be worthwhile to have someone create a bunch of deepfakes of politicians saying "This video has been faked" to drive awareness of this as a threat model.

E: Forgot the key bit, it would need to be spammed all over Facebook/Instagram/Mainstream social media.
Yeah it's all over Reddit too. I can't wait to read all about it in Ad Age and MM+M. It's a good campaign...burnishes Cuban's image while building the brand.
How naive to think that Taiwan (or the US) wouldn’t “disable” those facilities if threatened with invasion.
The tutorial talks about doing this with SQLite, in a way that suggests that this is the only option.

Which should be fine for a lot of applications.
Why would a Taiwanese company build a plant in China??
> So the police will literally stand across the street and watch a street vendor get robbed and do nothing.

Are you saying that SFPD is not stopping crimes that are occurring in front of them because they believe that the suspect will not be prosecuted? The police are not prosecutors - if they are failing to stop crimes, the fault lies squarely with them.

Can you provide some examples of when this has happened?
Exercise for one - I like listening to music to keep a beat going while exercising but I also want to occupy my brain and watch a video. Especially when watching live content, such as lectures or slow conference presentations, it can be nice to have some chill music in the background. Finally, there’s always the use case of wanting to listen to your own music while playing a video game and not miss out on the video game sound effects.

Even better if they can use some of their advanced AI on an app-by-app basis to remove noise in videos or remove music tracks from videos automatically and focus on the talking. Then I could put my own music in the background or leave it silent to focus better. I can do this on a computer with Rogue Amoeba’s apps and VST plugins, but I can’t do anything remotely like this on an iPad Pro.

Prolog itself does not have exponential complexity. It depends on the problem you're solving.
You chide me for not considering the totality of Tesla engineering while focusing on the self-driving group, yet it seems you're doing exactly the opposite: hanging your hat on whichever engineers you respect while ignoring the negligent practices of the self driving group. So maybe we're talking past one another a little here, but at the same time I don't think the problems I point out could persist in a corporate culture where engineers were empowered.

> focus them on nothing but the failures.

To be clear, the failures I'm speaking of here are deaths due to Tesla's negligent engineering. Actually I take that back. The real failure here of Tesla's engineering is not the first decapitation but the second one. That's a process problem, and is indicative of rot in the entire corporation (starting at the top; Musk's ego is the whole reason Teslas self-driving group is kneecapped). You want to look at the corporation as a whole? Start with the fact that their product killed someone, and they didn't fix the failure mode which resulted in that death, which then resulted in a second death in the same way. And they still haven't fixed it, so it's only a matter of time until the next decapitation. What kind of sick organization lets this kind of problem persist? I'll tell you: one where it's more important to be right (we don't need no stinking LIDAR!) than safe (LIDAR are safer than what Tesla is using). That's an ego problem right there.

Anyway, I see you didn't address any of my points except to say that there's no reasoning behind my words and my attitude is "dumb". So unless you want to respond to an actual point instead of just asserting without fact that Tesla is so amazing, so innovative, and so proven (I mean, yeah, they are certainly proving themselves, but maybe they are building the wrong reputation...), then I think we're done here.
The point is this might stop inflation in its track.
This was already done once for micro-USB 12 years ago:

As an American, I'm surprised to see so much lip service paid to reducing waste in our country and then describing a universal plug as "overreaching regulation that will stifle innovation."

Want to roll back the styrofoam ban too? Lots of new innovative (and greener) packaging resulted.

(you could have just edited your first reply to include the appeal to authority)
Qualification of a design takes a lot of time and money, and would need to be at least partially redone to replace a microcontroller. You need to be risk-averse when you sell hundreds of thousands of an expensive product with warrantees, and much more so when human safety is involved. I work in aerospace, not automotive, but I guess the industries are similar in that changing a microcontroller can easily take 1 year of time and 2-20 person-years of effort.
> When was the last time you gave something extra life instead of throwing it away?

My phone. Its a Xiaomi 9T that hasn't had any updates for over a year, so I moved it to a custom ROM - Arrow OS. Still tempted to buy a new Samusung S22; but I'm trying to keep this running. Main problem now is that it sometimes fails to charge because the USB-C port is wearing out.
Some times, the process of automating something provides enough positive returns in and of itself. For example, you might learn how to do new things along the way. Or you might be able to give the task to some one new so they can learn.

Or maybe in the process of automating, you discover new things about the process itself and can improve it.

I agree that one should be careful to consider work priorities and return on investment, but there are often hidden returns to something like this that leaders don't understand and take into full account.
Ye I wonder what the shift from local consumtion to tourism etc leads to. All WFH porches are built by now.

> Inbound container volumes to the US are reverting to pre-pandemic levels

Does not sound too drastic.
These things are indeed possible while maintaining fully semantically secure encryption. Recent, mostly theoretical work shows that this is possible using fully homomorphic encryption. The basic idea is, the client can encrypt its query, the server can process the encrypted query and produce an encrypted result, and send this back to the client. It sounds impossible, but it isn’t! Very cool stuff. There are actually also some practical implementations that work… so it’s gradually exiting the “theoretical only” stage.

MongoDB is very short on details, and I suspect they do something worse than homomorphic encryption, that does indeed make some kind of compromise between privacy and convenience.
They want something with good UI/UX and that is maintained and that they don't have to spend hours a week futzing around with?

There is nothing "free as in beer" that even comes close to this in polish. This is gorgeous.

PC and x86 took us pretty far... And that was mostly carried on interoperability... I doubt we would have gotten to technology being as ubiquitous as it is without it.

i haven't bought anything but food in last 4 months, the only thing I bought before that was a table subsidized partially by work firm. i have this estimate/sense/quota whether if i've over spent recently, and if i splurge on something that quota gets filled that i spent too much and need to delay or let go of future non-essential stuff, but recently just paying inflated prices on grocery has been triggering that sense and therefore not really even considering spending on anything else. Really feel the difference when $30 gives you only one bag and not too long ago it was 4 bags worth of items. hell i'm eating more carrots and eggs now, just stings less to eat this then say fish which costs $9 for small piece, that you need two of per person to have sizable portion for one meal only.
Target recently announced that they are now overstocked. Automakers are saying the chip drought is almost over. Lumber prices are going down. Seems like we are returning to normal?
It's been internet meme for few years when TSMC node lead was evident, and recently someone at US Army War College picked up on concept and wrote a paper suggesting TW should blow up their own fabs to deter PRC invasion when PRC had eyes on invading TW before semiconductors even existed. I guess TW media saw this as serious traction and pushed some articles basically saying "leave TSMC alone". The idea is flawed because preserving TSMC is the only barginning chip for TW, especially post war reconstruction. It's the difference between rebuilding from a advanced/developed economy to rebuilding from a agrarian one. Even with chip act and all the expansion on going, TW is projected to hold onto 90% of advanced node production for a while. It's not in TW/US interest to burn this. Nor PRC but direction of profits and reliant industry means it affects west more. Imagine being the TW leadership asking to be evacuated to US for protection after destroying supply chains of US companies worth trillions. Guessing in 5-10 years when PRC has semi sufficient domestic production, even if a few nodes behind, the meme will be PRC will preemptively destroy TSMC to make TW less desirable to protect.
Which is counter intuitive. If your money is going to worth less soon, you should probably spend it. This is the idea behind why “gentle inflation is good”.

I’m looking at expensive hard good rights now. Purchases that I’ve been putting off for awhile because I know those prices are going up soon.
Part of the problem is that there's a difference between having the skill of math and having the skill of applying math to real-world problems, and the latter 1) isn't taught, and 2) is really hard to teach.
>What is this snarky attitude? Be civil.

How am I beint uncivil? If I reply in short sentences I'm uncivil, longer ones have my words twisted and picked apart.

"That's rude. Who cut the cable?" is a legitimate question and perfectly civil.

If you are perceiving something as "snarky", that is on you. You cannot see into my mind.

(If I didn't care, I'd just smirk to myself and not even ask who cut the cable.)

Now, do you think the above is uncivil? If so why?

And, as I asked previously, do you know who cut the cable?
> But why are you talking out of your ass?

Keep it civil, please.

> The point of going to the moon was never to dimly increase utility to the public.

I think maybe you've lost the thread of the conversation?

The original claim was that scientific research/projects should be funded based on evident utility.

My point is that if you fund such projects purely based on immediately evident utility, then projects like Apollo (among many others) don't happen.

My unspoken corollary is that that would represent a loss to humanity, and that pure utilitarianism is too narrow a frame to use when assessing the value of a given project.

Honestly, I think we're in agreement, here, and I'm not sure I understand your aggressive response.
How are you doing time-lock encryption in this instance? Is it based off of a separate blockchain contract or is it one of the more traditional methods?
The morale of the story from my perspective is: Dont rely on online services. Anyone should remember: A cloud is nothing else than vapour...
> If we see significant wage increases and Real Estate decreases, the millenial generation might start to procreate to a reasonable extent.

The leading edge of millennials are already way out of their best reproduction years. Middle's very much iffy. The youngest are OK but will be starting to enter that "your risk of complications and birth defects are increasing a ton year over year" territory soon.
Does "cutting" a note mean taking scissors to cut it physically? Can you cut it in the corner or it has to be "across" a sensor boundary somehow breaking connectivity?

Can you tear the note apart and have it work too, if you don't have scissors on hand for example?

Maybe you can sell a kit that comes with the notes and a special cutter, like a cigar cutter with a box
I initially tried to learn Haskell by creating a small Physics programming project. It was fun, and I found some great math libraries, but eventually got frustrated by the slow pace and switched to Python. Specifically, the amount of time I spent debugging types and signatures was really frustrating, and often left me googling the same error patterns to figure out where my mistake might be.

I'm excited to try out Dhall and see if it has a smoother onramp.
Thank you!

You're not alone, I've ran into quite a few cases where working from a thread will suffice (big and small companies). We are still team dedicated incident channel but there are a few things that threads do better.

For example, the number of incident channels that get spun up can get out of hand. Threads are a lot cleaner for that. So we built a workflow that'll let you specify an auto archive behaviour.

We also don't want you to lose context of your threads or conversations, you can run /incident convert in Slack and we'll pull that context over. Lastly, we often see people working from threads from a primary #incidents or #outage channel for better visibility. We'll actually let you specify exactly who you want to notify whenever an incident gets opened/closed.

But generally we found we can do a lot more powerful things in dedicated channels around integrations or even assigning roles if that is important :)

Happy to chat more on your use case tho!
I have the same problem after a year or so with my Xiaomi Redmi Note phones (7 and 10). In the end it is sometimes easier to charge with a USB-A to USB-C cable, because USB-PD signalling easily breaks if the connector is worn out. I do not understand why we need more than 2 lines to charge.

I also have a Lenovo X395 laptop this one has the problem that the USB-C socket is not deep enough to snap in. I am hoping it will die before the end of warranty. Because if not, it will die a week after.

At least we can keep the chargers as all our devices will die early because we cannot charge them anymore
European Union rules all smartphones will require the same charger from 2024
Straight from supply crunch to recession.
If you made one with USDC I would probably buy some as gifts
I'm not sure that anyone thought it important enough to gather the data before.
This.

I never understood MFAs. In terms of ability to "log back in", it creates more "weakest links", where failure of one can lock me out of all.

Most consumers don't, but I use 3+ phones at a time, picking up whichever one has battery and is near me, and replace phones multiple times a year. MFAs and similar "future-looking" security solutions seem to target majority cases, whereas I think such security solutions need to support edge cases.

Currently, my best guess is magic links where I can set aliases like "this particular email" to be the source of truth, such that I can lose a device or two and still access the email, and still replace entire email if email is compromised (or regularly, just for best practice). But definitely does not feel satisfying...

Big respect for experts who are thinking about this problem day and night to solve it for the humankind. Seems hard and is definitely critically important!
The fundamentals are always the same. Start with a rough shape that vaguely resembles the thing you’re drawing. Work over it to make it look more like the thing. Look at real examples of the thing if you want to. When you reach the desired level of detail, call it done.

The details change over time. New conceptual tools, new mark-making tools. But the process I use as an artist is fundamentally unchanged since the first caveman saw firelight flickering on a bulge in a cave, said “hey, that looks like a bull”, then picked up a bit of charcoal to make some marks that make it look even more like a bull.
I thought Trump got rid of NAFTA?
> Did you know you can charge the laptop via the other usb port, next to the power port?

I knew, but would you believe: with the new motherboard, even that other USB-C port is bricked, it doesn't charge the battery either. :-( Speak of one-two punch.

Thanks for confirming the original issue. I've been a Lenovo user for 13 years, mostly trouble-free, but this nuisance is incredibly untimely. I've already put in a request for a new replacement laptop when I'm back in 3-ish weeks.
Those protocols were developed without government mandate.
I disagree with the implicit belief that every game should be fun. There are other metrics to judge games by. Though it might be needed in this particular game, it's not true of all games as a whole, nor of every mechanic in games.

The Beginner's Guide did not need fun to keep me, at least, engaged. Dwarf Fortress's fun must be made almost entirely by the player. Boring or downright hostile mechanics - such as long travel times in X3, or the long slog of rebuilding an army after a disastrous war in Mount and Blade, or permadeath in Darkest Dungeon and roguelikes - are not fun, yet I contend that without them the rest of the game would feel boring, even weightless. The unfun parts don't just "pad out" the game, they give meaning to the player's decisions and make choices matter.

> OP's problem isn't even specific to Github, the entire "aaS" industry seems rife with over-promise, under-deliver.

I agree with this perspective significantly more than I don't. My (again, smaller) disagreement lies with cost: the entire "aaS" industry generally is in the ballpark of $15-$30/user/year [edit: /user/month]; you are getting what you pay for. $250/user/year is in a completely different class.
Being fed up with people asking to use my laptop (some 20 years ago), I cleaned its keyboard and put the caps back on at random. "Yes, of course you can use it, here you are! Oh, sorry, I forgot the keyboard..." Peace and undisturbed working ensued...
Foxconn is a taiwanese company that builds factories in China. I think generally the answer is cheap labor and supply chain coalescence.
Are you using Dark Reader? It definitely made it gray-on-gray for me and I needed to turn it off to make it look normal.
Thank you; I don't know too much about Monero -- while I see that it does have multisigs, I can't tell if they can change over time. This is pretty important to ensure that we as the note issuer can never block someone from ultimately claiming the funds off of the note.
This happened to me last year.

Completely out of the blue I forgot my PIN, the PIN I had used every day for years. I was at an ATM trying to withdraw cash, got it wrong twice. It was just gone.

Luckily I cancelled it before the machine ate it, but I had to borrow money from someone to get a taxi home.

I had to request a new PIN and I still can't remember what it was. I now keep my pin in my phone under a contact.
USB charging usually works unless you care about max watts. Apple chargers would be different based on the brick. Lots of barrel chargers were not compatible.
It's usable (like right now) and certainly will be when Apple drops macOS support for it.
Windows CE on ARM and Windows PocketPC on ARM is older than that. But all of it has the same issue: you nearly always need a specific rebuild for a different ARM-machine because there isn't a single "ARM PC". Just like x86 pre-ACPI where you need different HALs and bringups for different systems. The problem here is twofold: firstly windows is closed so you can't actually add/modify components and rebuild it, only binary hacks and additive installation (like driver packages). Second issue: licensing. ARM isn't available unless you are an OEM. So there is no legal way to run Windows on M1 unless you are Apple and Microsoft signs you a contract (and that hasn't happened either).
I’ve been trying it out and this tool has been so helpful! Love the branding on your website too

Can't afford, not "don't need". And that is not good news.
How the TLDs work is a really classic example of US imperialism. For example .gov is impossible to get for non-US entities, yet literal towns have .gov domains within the US, and there are even examples of people using .ca to mean california. Meanwhile outside countries have to resort to things like .gov.uk. That's right, tiny rural towns in the US have a better domain than the main UK government sites.

Likewise .com typically implies US, as affirmed by the .com.mx, etc variants

If ICANN wasn't super biased towards favoring the US, do you really think .gov would have been approved in the first place?
