Usually, but not always. I’ve seen them collocated more frequently of late and almost made the same mistake before comparing price. The text was so small I would not have noticed without price setting me off. It clearly can be deceptively packaged and I would imagine many marketing departments will try if they think it’ll make them money.
A google search for 'damus social network' has this HN page as its 5th hit. That is pretty impressive for a page created 33 minutes ago, with (as of yet) zero tracktion.
Haha yeah no, Epic Games is a software company, they should have known better, period. Asking for free labor from people who already created a free product you want to use is disrespectful and clearly incompetent. It's not my responsibility to arrange your business, and make a reasonable counter-offer. I'd just want to say "no, thanks but no thanks" and risk Epic Games not utilizing my OSS project. If they think that's too bad for them, it's their responsibility to then follow up and make a $$$ offer for the labor they request.
So Web2 has gotten such a bad name due to centralized bullshit that entire democracies are up in arms. And the Zucks of the world just say “Calm down. Breathe. We hear you” and proceed to continue to do the very thing people have been mad about (Libra? Beacon?)

Zuck correctly described the situation early on: “I don’t know. They ‘trust me’. Dumb f#%ks”. And it’s still true today and you want to bury any alternative to that system.
Any time you hear a CEO say categorically that no layoffs are coming, layoffs are definitely coming.

Go to phone Settings -> Music -> toggle off Apple Music.

Boom no more annoying pop-ups and it defaults to Your Library in search.

I subscribe to the (under-rated) iTunes Match service [0] which matches all your music in your library with the Apple catalog version and syncs it across all your devices. It will also 'upgrade' poor rips to the official DRM-free AAC 256kbit version. Turn on “Sync Library” setting and it syncs with the desktop Music.app fairly seamlessly.

I feel like 16-bit MCs aren't popular because they aren't popular.

They offer a straight-up 2x performance increase in most applications and something like a 4-10x performance increase with 32-bit numbers (not to mention the space savings from fewer instructions).

Despite this, the 16-bit MCs all seem to be rather niche. I'd love for an open RISC-V variant that could fill this gap and allow sourcing of the same ISA from multiple companies.
The DMCA section 230 says that YouTube isn't liable for the content its users post, so it's going to be an uphill battle.

The poster of the video could be sued, though.
This sounds more combative then I mean, so do take it in the best light: In what ways do you think it can be different?
Savvy folks know that no CEO will ever say "yes, we are planning a layoff", and so they know that "there are no layoffs coming" really gives you no information. Naive and younger people will believe it though, so there is still value in saying it.

The key is to listen to the case the CEO makes. "There are no layoffs coming, I promise" is a signal that layoffs are coming.

"There are no layoffs coming. We are growing X% YOY and hiring pace of Y% has not slowed. Yada yada yada." is a signal that it's true.
Author here, very excited to share this with HN. Been seeing a lot of engineers thinking about getting into climate so I thought people might find it interesting. Happy to answer any questions!
It makes you wonder how parents coped before the advent of modern medicine. Infant mortality was so very high - many of them wouldn't even get marked graves. This is also why the median age of death in the middle ages was so low.
If you do try it again, then go for a park/forest with less people.

Surely it would be easier to make public transportation more accessible in a non-car oriented city than making driverless cars, which then have large amounts of continuous infrastructure costs, health care costs from less exercise, social costs, and also the fact its still not known if this is even entirely possible.

As a thought experiment, we have no cars other than emergency vehicles and some commercial vehicles occasionally. Everyone is able to walk to 90% of destinations, and bike or public transport the last 10%. It would be easier to have people who can't walk well in small electric personal transport devices (wheel chairs, segway, electric bikes, motorized scooters seen at walmart) that if they crash do not pose any threat to anyone. Surely adding wheel chair accessible elevators to train stops for public transit, is easier than building out entire car centris highway infrastructure that requires continuous expensive maintenance. Public transit and walking is already more accessible to the blind than automobiles, that is a nil point.
The unambiguous word in these situations is "liquor", at least in US English.

He was really persistent with his attacks, even received a warning from dang.

I found it really surprising, because before the release he wrote:

Scary. I recently did some research into what's behind the 'Jungle Builders' channels (two guys pretending to build flashy, but completely dysfunctional, pools somewhere in a forest with little more than their hands as tools). Seems to be a similar scheme, it doesn't invite viewers to recreate, but they leave a lot of litter and moscito-infested concrete pits behind. Most of them are actually in the same tiny forest somewhere in Malaysia that looks like a v2 of the Banksy theme park now.
Just like work, and in life, you're going to come across a myriad of people who handle criticism in different ways. Be it for cultural differences, deductive reasoning differences, even down to childhood upbringing, you know the story... We all do. It's 2022.

Not that you've done so; but others seem to reciprocate back with bullying, and with twice the force of any denials. A lot of people need to get the wisdom that others are different from them, and simply move on. The same threads, blogs, comments have come up on every single V post - living rent free in many people's heads.

I've seen it be done, either publicly or privately; in smaller companies I've even seen people be told "you will be laid off at X date if we don't get Y funding" as a heads-up; especially when the management doesn't want to lay people off.
Every time I lived through layoffs, they were absolutely not going to happen.

No manager wants the fire in building attitude with everyone running away.
PTSD is hyperbolic obviously. But it was pretty bad to live through and I didn't even live in the city. And it was hugely over budget and schedule. Fortunately, thanks to Tip O'Neill the rest of the country at least paid most of the bill. Thanks for that!

But, at the end of the day, it was a huge improvement for Boston even if traffic is still mostly pretty bad. Just getting rid of the elevated highway to reconnect downtown to the North End is a big improvement for the city--as is airport access which was pretty ridiculous before.

> The video in question wouldn't have triggered that manual review threshold because it's not even close to a million views.

What makes you say that? I don't have a source on that specific video, but socialblade says her channel was getting hundreds of thousands of views per day in the week after that video went up, three weeks since her previous video.

Edit: Bing cache says 720k as of some point. Archive.org says 1.5 million as of three days ago.

I would have set the manual review threshold no higher than 100k anyway.
> they could be using these very same chips, but with an open source driver.

You are not understanding the issues. If it was an option, the Rpi foundation would have taken it. Shipping closed drivers, to an opensource project is a ball ache, and leads to lovely people claiming that the foundation is there to stifle this and under mine that.

Its far more dull than that.

Its either a compliance thing (opensource drivers might need re-certifying the wifi) Contractual: its a seller's market and in order to get the best value, the foundation had to use the drivers provided.

>Taking a moral stand against repair-and-reuse in general is weird

Nowhere did I do this, and the claim is confusing because I am a supporter of repair-and-reuse in general. People are extrapolating from me saying specifically that a toaster is not worth it. Toasters cause house fires. I would always sooner replace it for $25 than salvage one.

>And throwing it away without replacing it punishes everyone in the house for the kid's mistake.

A lack of a toaster for a day or two hardly punishes anyone, and the child sees that other people can be impacted by their recklessness.

> Some people are on a budget where replacing even a $25 toaster is not a painless expense

Yeah, I am one of those people actually. I have an emergency fund that I would happily use for this 1-off incident.
> The outlet was stuck in the wall box so I reached a flathead screwdriver in to try and pry it out, and turned my screwdriver into an arc welder for a second.

I've got a screwdriver that incorporates a non-contact AC current sensor. Mine is a Gardner Bender SDT-354 [1] that I think I bought at Home Depot or Lowe's.

When the current sensor is turned on if you bring the tip of the screwdriver near a live AC wire an LED in the handle starts rapidly blinking and a beeper starts rapidly beeping.

It once may have saved me from a nasty shock. I have an outdoor light over the garage that is controlled by a light sensor, and the light sensor was going bad. It would turn the light on when it got dark but not turn it off in the morning. So I'd flip the breaker for that light off and then back on every morning.

When morning when I went to open the electrical panel in the garage I got a shock from the panel door. I went in and got the current sensing screwdriver and went back to the garage to see if I could get an idea of what the heck was going on.

As soon as I stepped into the garage the screwdriver started blinking and beeping. A little experimenting showed it would go off anywhere in the front half of the garage that was more than about a meter above the floor.

It turned out that the metal garage doors and the metal rails their rollers rolled on and the metal tracks the garage door openers pulled the doors on were all connected to live AC.

I got the fuck out of there and called an electrician.

What happened was that in the shed next to the garage that houses my well some critter had chewed through some of the insulation on some of the wiring for powering the well pump. I'm not sure how but that somehow made the cover and door of the electrical panel and all those metal parts of my garage door system electrified, but without stopping the well pump from receiving power.

A lot of the businesses were already struggling (as per the article) and given the 'death of the high street' and the pandemic, probably would have died anyway. It unfortunate, but natural, that if you improve an area with newer housing and amenities that different people will move in and lots of businesses will no longer be required while other types of businesses will be required.

For Java Emacs is terrible. I loved IntelliJ. But for Python, Haskell, Common Lisp, Clojure, OCaml, I turn back to Emacs, because it is very familiar, and very nicely integrated.
>This is a hollow argument since none of their competitors that also are faring any better either. SpaceX is delivering close to their promise now years before they have to. It's an alarmist piece by teleco like the clock is close to timing out and things are heading south. Over time they will improve the hardware to have higher bandwidth capability, such as with their v2 satellites, with further improvements to the hardware likely later on.

I hope they improve it, but Musk has a strong history of over promising and under delivering. Time will tell, I do not think this was a alarmist of fluff piece. Merely a reminder of their promises and current results.

> It's not "entertainment". It's actually delivering value to underserved customers, there's no need to inject politics or personal vendettas into this.

This is arguable. Musk depends on tax payer funding to keep SpaceX afloat to get to Mars. Nothing about politics or vendettas, but this is a billionaires joy ride. The US government also has a history of spending money to help the under served which has historically never panned out either.
Thank you. I got really tired of these vague accusations over the last 3 years.
In the UK, you can find Dualit stuff in stores that have a kitchen appliance section (John Lewis, say). I've seen them in shops in Germany and the Czech Republic, too. Not sure where you're based, though. Mind you, there is a little shopping trolley icon at the top right corner of the page ...

Or the site map has "shop" listed:

https://www.dualit.com/products

Don't know if that's international or just UK. A basic search shows Dualit stuff at Target and Home Depot, though. Amazon, too.
> People developing other languages and their communities didn't like it, and decided to attack it.

I honestly doubt this is the case. Aside from some cargo-culters (which are far from being a majority), most programming language enthusiasts are very welcoming to new languages and ideas they bring with them. I have never seen a "language war" happening this way.

Personally, I admire the V's ambitions (if the autofree() ever reaches production-quality it would be a total triumph over Golang's garbage collection approach), but I dislike the unprofessional approach to the community (explained in many other comments - particularly false claims about language capabilities, deleting criticisms, unwillingness to admit shortcomings and making up excuses for each of them, etc.).
> The flow of electrons in a copper wire is much slower than a wireless or fiber optic signal, so over longer distances, theoretically it could be lower latency

"flow of electrons in a copper wire" has little to do with the speed of a signal transmitted via electrons in a copper wire - what we care about here is propogation delay[1]. Assuming that the speed is about c in air (a bit less but whatever) and at least 0.6c in copper, and assuming a minimum threshold of say 1ms of delay being noticeable to an audiophile, then you would need a headphone cable about 450km in length to noticed the difference.

Yes. You can get an 8-bit for $0.15 in quantity and they go down to 6-pin SOT-23 or even smaller parts.

The PIC10F320 is an interesting one as it can replace a fairly large amount of discrete logic very easily. I think I paid $0.47 in one off quantity for those! It was used to entirely replace a couple of timers and a state machine.

Yeah, that really sounds weird considering games is their core business and now they're doing layoffs after just purchasing WETA that's kind of outside the core business.
But, like I said, you described a mountain, but your sources indicate a spec of sand.
The comments on this thread are suspiciously hyperbolic.
You don't want private entities making decisions on what content they host on their platforms, but you do want the government to make that decision (host everything) and force those private entities to abide by that decision under threat of penalty? And that is how we avoid dictatorships in your view?
The idea is if you let it out that layoffs are coming (which isn't a real big deal because the employees know it's coming most of the time, no matter how much it is denied; when layoffs are not coming nobody asks) then the best employees will leave ASAP and the worst will stick around until the layoff date.

I haven't seen it myself, really, and post-layoff date your best employees may already be looking anyway (especially in a layoff as the company folds vs a "rightsizing layoff").
It's amazing how for some people hatred of the political opposite causes glee when tech companies fail and people lose their jobs. People who may not be political and who probably need their job.

All of this being done on internet forums and social media produced and managed by those same people.

50/50, not "everything" there is Bali, which is much more for Tourism, Foreigners - and more to the point that most people do not think Bali is Indonesia.

Culturally Javanese and Muslim, yes but there are sects of Christianity, and outside Java it goes dependent of island, Manado, Bali, Lombok, etc. There is religious freedom.

Java is a success story, for most of South East Asia and Central Asia.
Yes, this needs a (2021) tag. It's also not clear what purpose "Then things got worse." serves - other than clickbait - so it could really be removed.
They are indeed an abbreviation for "change". change {root,own(er),mod(e),gr(ou)p}...

I am one of those who say "c-h-..." as well. For some reason I find it less awkward to say than "shroot."

Perhaps the first thing I think of with "ch" is the hard C or K, like "character." That sound wouldn't work in those cases. 'Kroot', 'kown', eh... no, so "C-H-..." it is.

On that note the page mentions"char" at the top, lists "care" and I more frequently hear others use "char" as in to burn. In my groups I think I'm the only one that pronounces it as first syllable of the actual word.
Nobody is working on refrigerants bc they're nerdy and hard. Recoolit is super important!
One part of the development of Indonesia that is conveniently left out of the article, is the annexation of West Papua. An area rich of gold mines.
Unfortunately for the indigenous population, things didn't end with the annexation. An estimated 500,000 West Papuans have been killed in the bloody conflict that has continued until now.

It's a conflict that rarely makes it into the news, a common thing when the victims are poor and lots of money is at stake.

Hi there!
I made Spliit because I was sick of Splitwise, of all the ads on the app and all the features I never use that just add noise to my user experience.

Spliit is a web app that offers you to create groups, share them with other participants, add expenses, and see how to reimburse each other in an optimal way.

You don’t need an account to use it, and it is free to use. I just added a tiny premium feature; to be honest it is more a way to support the app and its hosting cost :)

I hope you like it!
> Simply, V is very divisive.

How is an open-source programming language divisive?

Seems the people brigading are toxic and divisive, not the language or it's maintainers.
> Avoidance is the safest strategy, she said. "These big cats are shy—they tend to avoid human contact as much as they can. They're really extreme introverts of the animal kingdom."

There are lots of large predators that "avoid human contact". I think the reason for that is not some intrinsic physical thing, but because humans have historically hunted and killed these large predators. However, as humans stop killing these predators, how long until they lose their fear of humans and see us as prey?

Categorically false but at least functionally true for me.
You could say that. A very simplistic way to sum it up.

There's no ownership in V and it's not planned.

But it does borrow immutability, sum types, some elements of memory handling.

V is much closer to Go, about 80% close I'd say:

Well that's just the impression i get, it's not like we can have actual data on the matter.

But every discussion I've seen where economics have been brought up, anti-regulation, pro-business, "free market will fix everything", "all the problems come from the regulation and because it's not a true free market" opinions seem to be the majority. Regardless of the topic - be it environmental regulations, monetary policies, the amount of work required to open a restaurant, EU regulatory work against Bit Tech or other oligopolies, etc.
