When so many common, consensual and mostly-harmless activities are criminalized, especially in communities with less resources to keep things in private homes, "perfect enforcement" becomes impossible by design. Instead, law enforcement have a vast catalog of infractions and suspicions they can use to target people at their discretion. Before we can ever hope to have equitable law enforcement, we need to reform this culture of criminalization. And vastly increasing privacy rights, the same ones being gutted by the current Supreme Court, wouldn't hurt either.
> It was their choice to invite consumer complaints about radio interference in unlicensed bands using a crafted UI.

When I go to the FCC link you posted, I don't even see what you're talking about. I see a menu of: TV, Phone, Internet, Radio, Access for People with Disabilities, and Emergency Communications, Affordable Connectivity Program and "Tell us Your Story". None of those initial menu options would even apply - this isn't disrupting your TV, Phone, Internet or broadcast radio services. "Tell us your story" is just a free text entry form - nothing about radio interference/unlicensed.

So maybe you can clarify.

>> Are you hoping they will carve out a slice of new spectrum for AirPods and give it to Apple for free?

> No.

Well then what, really? Why not just call the police then?
If each company is selling an FCC certified device that is running within the parameters of its certification (which is likely the case) - the FCC has nothing to act on. You are asking the feds to intervene on no actual rule breaking. Devices sharing the "trash" ISM band are often going to interfere even when operating within specification. You might have a better bet with the FTC or a civil case.
Yes, it would be nice if Logitech or Apple did something to play nice, but it's not a federal communications regulations issue.

Also you asked for the FCC to respond. If you look at the FAQ, the FCC does not directly respond to consumer complaints - it would totally overwhelm them with the terrible signal to noise ratio. They indirectly respond insofar as demanding a response from the provider for service related issues https://consumercomplaints.fcc.gov/hc/en-us/articles/2050828...

I'd imagine the stimulus requires some weighted response in order to trigger for fastest response time which seems rational to assume that requires a biased selection criteria. Given it was a fairly constant trigger such as a clock tick tock, it would seem like it would either not work or generate perpetual anxiety; not mutually exclusive and more likely to include other cons.
(Disclaimer: not a lawyer so may be wrong here)

There's a third outcome not mentioned here though. The author loses both cases but Microsoft's Copilot is still legal. That's because there's major difference between releasing a product from AI generated code, and Microsoft releasing the AI itself. Microsoft Copilot might generate code derived from GPL, but it's up to the developer to ensure that it isn't before releasing it.

The precedent that Copilot sets is that you can train AI to generate copyleft code, but that doesn't mean you get to release it.
It might have been a few months ago, when prices of lumber reached their historical peak. Concrete houses are more expensive than wooden ones because of the material and labor costs. "Printing" might save something by removing some labor but the machine they use is not free so you need to amortize its cost. And the walls are a small part of the cost of the house so even if this construction had been significantly cheaper, it would be a small difference in the total cost.
I see quite often that many people here on HN lack basic awareness of others, empathy, and humility. It comes with the territory. It has taken me years to recognize and outgrow those points of view. Perhaps the reason I persist is the hope that I can help others see how self-defeating such behaviors can be. Most people will not engage with people like I do -- it exacts a cost to deal with people that don't show much generosity or willingness to meet in the middle. I'm not saying this is you -- I don't know you -- only you and people that know you can reflect on it and assess. I would encourage you to ask people that know you well.

You call my writing obscurantism ("the practice of deliberately preventing the facts or full details of something from becoming known: I've been accused of obscurantism and willful misdirection.") which implies that it was willful.

This is in incorrect assumption on your part. I was elaborating in the hopes that you would understand. If you re-read the comments, it is clear that I pushed back against the desire for a simplistic answer, since I think doing so is limiting and foolish. My elaboration provides context to help you understand.

Put another way, what you call obscurantism is better thought of as elaboration. You didn't understand, and then you lashed out. That was an egotistical, unkind thing to do. It is hard to admit you don't understand. It is easy to blame someone else for not explaining it well.

Also, using a term like obscurantism makes it plain that you are making assumptions about people's intentions. Another approach would be to simply ask and/or operate on good faith, which generally meshes with the HN guidelines. Being judgy won't do much to encourage people to take the time to discuss with you.

A useful approach here is to be patient and recognize that communication is a sense-making process.

Based on your other comments, I'm inclined to think you probably are aware of Theory of Mind, at least intellectually. The upshot is this: it is very hard to communicate effectively when you don't know what other people know. Acting in ways that do not build goodwill tend to make it even harder.

So that leaves a key question: why would you make it harder on yourself? Because of the human condition. Call it pride, ego, status-seeking, venting, whatever. But it doesn't really help much in the long term.

I'll try to summarize in the hopes that it will be clear this time. If you are willing to let go of the desire for simplistic questions and simplistic answers, then I hope you will be able to understand. (You don't have to agree to understand.)

Liberalism and pluralisms don't categorically deny the truth of other viewpoints. But they are incompatible with some other viewpoints.
Fascinating how an article cautioning against the dangers of ideology manages to entirely miss its own susceptibility to ideology.

Yes, ideology has poisoned the West. No, trans people using the bathrooms corresponding to their gender is not an example of that poisoning, nor is the working class being driven to "rioting" (read: responding to violence more often than not instigated by police shooting tear gas into peaceful protests) by an apathetic-at-best socioeconomic system an example. If the author is so concerned by the poison that is ideology, he is encouraged to stop drinking it by the gallon.
Are you arguing that it is rational to presume a conflict?
Half a million people died and they get away with a slap on the wrist. Mckinsey should be dismantled and its members involved in the opoids promotion sued and tried.
The timing is eerie. Declared public health emergency in 2017 and most media coverage and high profile lawsuits was in 2017-2019. Insiders like McKinsey knew about the dangers much earlier, perhaps better than anyone.

Supreme Court leaks, then CA AG....
I’m very confused
That's not really how it works either. Everyone makes decisions individually based on their understanding of the best rules and also tries to keep the network from splitting. There aren't any competing chains, because issues are debated and solved externally. If this consensus fails, then the network splits and there's a fork. After that, everyone can choose either Bitcoin or Bitcoin Cash. Neither of them is "correct". Everyone chooses whichever version they like most. I call this economic consensus, because I believe that this consensus tries to find rules which would maximize long-term economic demand for the currency.

This is completely different issue than chain consensus disputes, which means that inside the chosen rules there's disputes on which history is correct. I.e. it's the double-spend problem, which PoW solves. PoS is subjective, and it's impossible to determine the correct history without asking someone. [0]

I'd say it is not wrong. Similarly related is Unfettered Mind: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Unfettered_Mind
I was hanging out with my pharmacist friend and he mentioned that a decade his friend invited him to go into business opening up a pain clinic but it was pretty obvious it was a pill mill and he told his friend no thanks. His friend went on to make multiple millions of dollars very quickly and will never face consequences.

It got me thinking that there were probably tens of thousands of people who each made millions of dollars knowing full well what they were doing was killing people and they will never face any consequences for their actions.

Problem is not the agile, but useless sinecure managers trying to rebrand "agile" as something in which projects don't need planning, can be completely chaotic and any requirements can be changed at anytime without affecting the deadline.

"Hey we don't really need to make any decision ever or even know what we are doing. That's the great thing about agile!"

Are checklists common in the western/modern dating scene?

I came up with the concept of checklist from my female friends in the USA. I found the concept bizarre.

We were talking about liberals and conservatives. Conservatives are not universally religious and liberals are not universally irreligious. What is more disrespectful is attempting to change the subject to take the discussion in a direction that, if it were headed there to begin with, I would not have engaged.

> poor support for style libraries like tailwind

Can't relate. Tailwind works fine with anything that supports PostCSS. I run it with Vite and there's zero issues.

> the state management ecosystem is fractured between vuex and pinia

This is also just not true. Pinia is officially replacing Vuex as the recommended store library for Vue [1]. They're also vastly similar in how they do things, so the knowledge transfer over from Vuex to Pinia. And Pinia just address most of the design goals mentioned in the article in the most simple way.

As for Vue 2 -> 3 transition, lots of the larger UI frameworks in the ecosystem is struggling to migrate, despite lots of efforts on the compat layer to smooth the transition, which is a bummer. But as long as you're not doing those sophisticated things, Vue 2 examples should work out-of-box on Vue 3 as well. There are surely less resources for the composition API, but the official introduction guide has been good enough in my experience.

You're favouring larger companies over smaller ones then, instead of what HN users actually put forth and vote on.

No thanks.
Projects tend to need substantially less planning than people think.
Users often don't know what they want, but they frequently know better than rando companies.

Apple's strategy worked during the era of Steve Jobs because Steve Jobs was miraculously good at intuiting what users want. Since his death, Apple has lost that ability. See: The Butterfly Keyboard, the Touchbar, the 2013 Mac Pro. Apple's recent successes have been things consumers very much said they wanted: iPhones with larger screens, Macs with better performance and incredible battery life.

Nintendo does seem to have some leaders with Steve Jobs's talent, but I'd argue they're more hit or miss than he was. The Wii U didn't go so well, and the Wii—while an initial success—was ultimately kind of mixed.
...if they don’t try to fight crime in a minority neighbourhood then they are “racist” (focusing on the rich neighbourhoods). If they do try to fight crime in a minority neighbourhood then they are also “racist” (for “targeting” specific races/cultures).

Let me outline the counter claim. Police spend more effort on actually solving crimes in rich neighborhood (as per article) but they still need arrests in poor neighborhoods so they arrest people more randomly and on flimsier pretexts. When people complain, they throw out the line you have above.
Classic. And when you tell incompetent management that 9 women can't deliver a baby in a month, they'll proceed to try with 10 women.
The fact that you should avoid allocation when possible has absolutely nothing to do with how fast allocation should be when you need it. And code not written with performance in mind should still be as fast as reasonably possible by default.

I would assume that quite a few people actually trying to write fast code would just assume that malloc, being provided to you by your OS, would be in the best position to know how to be fast. Certainly microsoft has the resources to optimize the two most frequently invoked functions in most C/C++ codebases, at least more than you yourself would.

MSVCRT being stuck with the current extremely slow thing, even if there are truly good reasonable reasons, is still a horrible situation to be in.
You can build an advertisement tracking system unilaterally and release it to the world. You don't need permission to do so.

On the other hand, fixing the climate, recycling, agriculture, the political, system, etc. require you to convince other people to change their beliefs and habits. You also might need to raise prices on things they hold dear (e.g. carbon tax) or tell them to stop doing something they find convenient. These are hard problems.
It is, and for a lot of things that works. But if your DNS server is not your router, it needs to be at a stable address so other hosts on the network can find it.

As I understand it, we (admins of ipv6 networks) are expected to run both public and private sets of addresses internally. The public ones may change if your ISP makes you, but your ULAs never do.

You can find that in most cities. 2,700 Canadian can rent a house in Toronto if you leave the downtown area.
HN auto-titler removes the word “How”
I moved home to NZ from an OE in Silicon Valley 20 years ago .... but kept my US job (and moved to others) - living in NZ it's a great deal, but local salaries make it virtually impossible to take a local job and keep my current standard of living.

I work remotely, consult so I pay tax here (lower marginal rates than the US - plus you should pay tax where you live), but suffer when the exchange rate goes against me (damn those Japanese dentists!)

> And yet a single Police incident gone wrong will completely overshadow the reality of this.

that's because when the police kill people, there are no repercussions for them, no matter how much obvious bias, incompetence, disregard for human life, and malice is apparent in their activity. police can literally murder people on a whim and 99% of the time not even be suspected of any crime much less prosecuted. The George Floyd murder required that it was videoed from start to finish for there to be any chance of an actual criminal trial proceeding. All of the police murders that we hear about now are all news because there is now video. Think of all the decades and decades when there was no video, how many people must have been murdered on a whim, without the event even being considered a crime. But even today, obviously immensely negligent acts, such as the murders of Tamir Rice and Eric Garner, still basically have zero repercussions for their killers.

This is nothing like the usual "murder rate", where the violence that occurs between people who are not cops is all considered to be crime, and is handled as such. There's no disagreement on what justice looks like. Murder is bad, but aribtrary murder by state actors with no accountability is worse.

> Imagine being a police officer risking your life every single day.

please review the accounts of Uvalde as children and teachers were murdered over an hour while heavily armed and armored police stood around and did nothing but prevent anyone else from being able to help. There are many ordinary jobs that are statistically much more dangerous than that of the police including things like roofing, truck driving, construction (source: OSHA https://www.invictuslawpc.com/most-dangerous-jobs-osha/)

Perhaps surrender to the idea of "having an accident" as a blessing. I mean that in multiple ways. You sound quite analytical, that means you'll be able to figure out any problem your family ever requires of you. Surrender to passion, have some fun, make love, the babies are what matter more than anything. You don't need to be convinced that you love someone to have a child, you can make the relationship work and find love within it. The love of a child vs a partner is a thing of itself to sprout purpose and 'family.'

It's about the kids, relationships follow after. You have a fear of being a single mom. Try to release that fear. Less mind, more gut. The mind can't feel passion, it directly convinces oneself to avoid it. Passion, love, is very much in the moment and also in and out. Obviously you'd sense a deadbeat. Obviously you have good head on your shoulders. Let fate do its thing and stop over analyzing.

Set an intention that you're going to have a kid, surrender to the universe and flow with what comes your way. More like dancing, less like tests. You know pretty immediately if you vibe on the dance floor. Swing with that flow and just listen to that heart.
They do hit disproportionately.

If you work a low-end shift job and miss a shift, you're likely to get fired almost immediately, or put on some sort of suspension, or otherwise punished via poor shift assignments and the like. At the very least, you lose income for the shift, and that is likely a substantial amount of money for you. The "court fee" is a substantial amount of money to you. You end up with a public defender who has little influence with the other officers of the court - the judge, the DA, etc. They have a docket a mile long for that day and needs to triage their time and resources, so they push you to plea out so they have time for the guy who is facing a felony or even capitol charge. If convicted your choices are jail or fines, and the fines might be days or weeks of pay you don't have.

If you work a professional job, you have "personal days" you can cash in, your employer provides you with things like free legal assistance via EAPs - or you probably already have established professional relationships with at least some sort of attorney, who you can afford, and who knows someone who knows the judges and DAs in the district you're going to be appearing in, and maybe the whole thing just goes away. The court fees are a rounding error in your weekly pay. And the laws are all "jail time or X dollar fine." So even if you're found guilty - the fine is a rounding error to you.
It just felt easy together. And I felt he deeply saw me for who I was.
Sometimes the point of the advertising is to make you ignore its competitors.
This is such a pet peeve of mine, especially when peeking at other programming domains I don't typically work in. Seeing readme's say "Simply..." or just throw around domain terminology with 0 context immediately puts me off using the library.
Possibly more common is when the company is bought specifically to shut it down, because the product's success would hurt, or is hurting, sales of their own product.

There used to be a category of software called "electronic design automation". It presented an interactive editor where you could enter the schematic diagram of an integrated circuit, and also enter a chip layout, and it would ensure that they matched. It was big business. But "silicon compilers" that needed only the schematic, and generated the chip layout, threatened that business.

So, in the mid-to-late '80s the biggest EDA company set about buying up early-stage silicon compiler companies and shutting them down. That was doomed, but bought them several years during which silicon compilers were (therefore) not available for people to use. The company is still in business today, but sells very different things.

General Motors bought up more carmakers to, effectively, shut down than probably any other.

Sometimes a company can be bought for less than it would cost to hire as many staff as they have. So, they are bought and shut down, and the employees are put to work on various other projects. Google's hiring system is so Byzantine that buying companies, bypassing it, might be their main recruiting method.

One might even buy a company because its product has a name they want to use for their own product. The momentary importance of domain names in the late '90s caused a fair bit of that.

None of these contradict one another. A company might be bought for any or all reasons at the same time.

So when your company is bought, expecting its product to come out the other side is naïve.
With IPv6, your ISP gives you a block of IP addresses which your router then divvies up among its clients. Each device on your network has a unique public IPv6 address, rather than sharing one and your router using NAT and port forwarding to direct traffic.

This makes dynamic DNS much more complicated because you can't just update the AAAA record with the address of your router, you need to update records for all clients that need to be externally accessible.

This is not an unsolvable problem, but it does make things a bit more complicated than just punching your DynDNS credentials into your router config or running Namecheap's DNS tool on one of your machines.
