>On the other hand, this doesn't mirror my experience in the mailing lists, incl. debian-devel, which is one of the heaviest mailing lists I have ever participated,

You may be filtering them, because I have seen a ton of flamewars on the debian mailing lists. Almost as many to rival lkml.

>The link I shared was 'The official kernel mailing list", and the person who wrote the mail is a Kernel maintainer.

I have read a countless number of flamewars from various maintainers on lkml including each of the ones you're sharing, I don't feel I need to read them again, sorry.

>Are you trying to say that you know (or one of) these people, and they don't want to remember these things, because they feel bad about these events?

No, I don't know any of these people personally. I am saying I would rather not remember these things because they are not an effective use of my time. It was also not an effective use of my time to pay attention to this when it happened originally, it is none of my business whether some other developers have some personal issues between each other.

>The criticisms I shared as a comment are still valid. Do you want me to carry them to mailing lists and start another flame war?

No. I would ask that you rephrase your comments to be less accusatory, and do your part to not start another flame war or revive an old one. Perhaps the reason you are not getting positive responses may be because your tone is causing other people to become defensive. I understand english is not your first language. Just make a small list of the problems you're having, do not make it about "refuting" something anyone else has said and do not make generalizations about other people. A simple way to do it is like this: "I can't do A, it's hard for me to do B, it crashes when I do C" and so on. Only mention issues that you personally can attest to first-hand, avoid discussing rumors and do not say things like "I heard A, I read B, someone told me C". That is not the way to problem solve. Does that sound good?

>Also, please read the guidelines[0] of this site about commenting, language, tone and general behavior.

I have read them, I would prefer that you please do not link to outside messages featuring these flamewars from other forums which have much more relaxed requirements about tone, language and behavior. This a technical way to evade the guidelines even though it would be inappropriate to post those type of comments on HN. Many of the insulting, derogatory or passive-aggressive comments from lkml maintainers (including from Mr. Torvalds himself) would get you ban here but for some reason people think it's appropriate to keep re-posting links to them. I really don't think it is.

Iridium Go is 2.4 Kbits/s compared with 350 Mbps here, and data is charged in minutes (i.e. the slower/worse the connection the more it costs). Apples and oranges.

Iridium GO is cheap, but that's all you can really say positively about it. It is arguably not even offering "internet" in the normal sense, since loading a website would be incredibly expensive/bad and is therefore restricted to low data rate messaging and plain text weather updates.

Is $5K/month a niche product? Undeniably yes, and I hope to see more flex offerings later, but this isn't a good comparison.
It could be either mirroring all the traffic to an agency-provided black box, or sending just NetFlow (or sFlow) metadata about the traffic.

And if someone thinks the first option is not realistic - this is how almost every ISP in Russia works (search for SORM-2 and SORM-3 for more detail, typically traffic is mirrored at ISP's border gateway(s)). Sure, Russia or China wouldn't be great examples, but the point is that it's technically possible, even at scale, and all the real problems are in the meatspace (legal enforcement or coercion).
After hunting for a desktop and mobile Gmail replacement for a while, I have settled on Bluemail for both. Along the way I tried Mail.app, Thunderbird, and various open source thingies. None were close enough to the quality level of Gmail.

This new situation is probably good enough to keep me off gmail for good.
Another option could be, so, that this is a somewhat realistic pricing. Assuming Iridium and co. do know what they are doing.

> I don't think the argument that the mere existence of clients that work differently ruin the modern features somehow is really that fair (see below).

It totally does, though. If I write an emoji thumbsup, and the recipient only sees a tofu box, they won't know if I'm agreeing, disagreeing, or saying something else.

If I'm participating in a heterogeneous environment, I need to refrain from including any mission-critical information in a form that can't be read by all of the participants. And since writing the same information twice is usually too much work, the extended functionality winds up completely unused, or at least only gets used for low-value spam.

> Or do you worry that the person you are talking to on slack might just be connected via matterircd via IRC

Yes, I do worry about that. If I find out that one of my coworkers is using a Slack client that doesn't implement all the functionality in the reference client, and can't just talk them out of it, then I'll have to make sure not to use anything that they can't see.

I might even start doing an IRC bridge myself, in fact, since at that point there's really no actual purpose in running a chat client with a bunch of functionality that I cannot use.

A major part of Slack's value is that this is very rare. Almost everyone just uses the reference implementation.

There's nothing wrong with "Don't Repeat Yourself" except if it applies to code rather than knowledge.

Good points, but I do feel like people who turn off telemetry should understand and accept that this means their use cases won't be considered for product development.
The second sentence in the paragraph at the top of the home page is pricing.

Bravo. All web sites selling a product should make the pricing this prominent. At the least, have a pricing page with actual prices on it and not a "Call us for pricing" call to inaction.

Me spending time on your site researching a product which turns out to be out of my price range is just wasting your time and mine, and I don't like you when you waste my time.

I accidentally walked through a Rio favela one evening. Never ran into anyone and didn’t realize it until the next day when I was looking at a map. But I believe by most accounts, that was foolish and lucky. Crime, including robbery and kidnapping, is quite common in Rio. It’s common for nice buildings to have armed guards outside them.

I’m American so I’d love to hear locals tell me how wrong/right my belief of luck/foolishness was.

They're about enlightenment: overflowing energy (magic porridge pot), sleeping beauty, snow White, the princess and the pea... many have a connection with 7 things (the chakras) or in the case of the last one having the sensitivity to feel into the root chakra.

> They're convinced Chernobyl can happen again

Of course it can! It's almost certainly much less likely now, but I don't think anyone has presented convincing evidence that it's impossible that something like that could happen again.

And that's a really big deal. Even if the risk of another Chernobyl is ridiculously low, another Chernobyl would be so bad that it's worth considering.

Having said that, I do support nuclear energy, and wish there wasn't so much FUD spread about it. But let's not delude ourselves into believing there are no safety concerns, or that we've solved the waste storage/disposal problem.

The problem is that VR sucks and there's no way around that with the current trajectory of tech.

Take this cringey "demo" from meta: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SAL2JZxpoGY

It's not possible. It's just not possible with the tech we have or will have any time soon. Start with 35 seconds in. Person on the right is floating legs out. This is impossible. It's possible to render that, but it's impossible to feel like you're floating in that position. We can ignore the presumed motion sickness. The video heavily implies that is her reality. But it's not. We cannot achieve the kind of presence you see in this or other popular things like ready player one. What is she really doing in the real world. Sitting down? Standing up?

Mark says "Whoa, we're floating in space", which is, for the record, so incredibly unimpressive for a digital world but whatever. He is not floating. He will not feel like he's floating. He will need either shitty physics or stupid controllers to move around. Which is fine for a game, but it's not going to set up the scene they're showing here.

They're also nimbly dealing cards with their hands. Good luck building that network replicated physics engine and hand inputs.

Black girl does a backflip. Sure, we can do backflips in games. But she also clearly has a lot of fun doing it. This person really feels like they're doing a backflip. Impossible.

And lastly, looking at abstract shitty visuals is not that interesting!

People can't spend the majority of their time in VR if they're not at home. Everyone can always look at their phone they aren't immediately preoccupied.
Not anything like a shader, really, just standard non-shader masking and blending. (I mean, you can implement them in a shader, but that's besides the point). Nothing standard fixed pipelines haven't been doing for ages.

My biggest fear is that the next generation of warfare is going to be lost only due to lack of imagination.

I am starting to see a new opportunity emerge for the skills and tools held by AAA game studios and fintechs. Building a UX/UI that allows for you to interact with your next-gen weapons system is going to be the biggest challenge in my view. How does 1 person manage a fleet of 10k drones in a strategic conflict? How do you integrate hundreds/thousands of these fleets into a cohesive force? You are talking about potentially millions of battlefield actors. And billions of discrete events per second. How do you process all of this data and then make a rational decision by the time the next loop comes around? Every millisecond that goes by without a decision is a substantial step closer to defeat.
1080p why
Interesting but puzzling at the same time.

I don't disagree modern wars will result in whole classes of equipment being found obsolete or not cost effective, but this strikes me as odd:

[quote from the article]

> "The military we have—an army built around tanks, a navy built around ships, and an air force built around planes, all of which are technologically advanced and astronomically expensive—is platform-centric. So far, in Ukraine, the signature land weapon hasn’t been a tank but an anti-tank missile: the Javelin. The signature air weapon hasn’t been an aircraft, but an anti-air missile: the Stinger. And as the sinking of the Moskva showed, the signature maritime weapon hasn’t been a ship but an anti-ship missile: the Neptune."

Well, none of those types of missiles are fundamentally new, and have existed in one way or another for decades (e.g. the HMS Sheffield was sunk by an Exocet anti-ship missile during the Falklands War in 1982!). More importantly, they work because the Ukrainians are fighting a war of resistance against an invading force; were they to go on the offensive (hypothetical, imagine they -- like the Soviet Union in WWII -- were to advance into Moscow and decapitate its leadership) they would need tanks, and airplanes, and other allegedly "obsolete" equipment.

The Ukrainian defense works where they are given support and weapons by foreign powers and because of a Russian mismanaged offensive.

Say -- again for the sake of argument -- the invasion was a coordinated effort by NATO against an hypothetical Ukrainian rogue state. How long would they last with their Stingers and Neptune anti-ship missiles?

As a devil's advocate against my own argument, Afghanistan ended up "defeating" the US in the very long run, for reasons not directly related to the weapons they used. And what weapons did they use, anyway? (Good old) Stinger, RPGs and AKs? No Neptunes in sight.
Maybe, but if you want to connect networks between two nearby towns for example, it’d be nice to be able to run that off commodity hardware that’s a bit higher-bandwidth than what you’ll get on LoRa.

And realistically I suspect that people using it for the same sort of use cases they’d use Meshtastic for will be using the same LILYGO (and similar) hardware.
> What stops someone from going somewhere and just pretending they're unvaccinated and getting a shot? I was under the impression that a booster was just another dose.

I don't know if they'd actually check it, but most (all?) US states have vaccine databases, and I assume COVID vaccinations would be entered into it.
Souvenirs seem like really tough business, constantly changing trends and all that.

A branch of the family owns two restaurants in Venice and they are making money hand over fist. The quality of the food is completely average for Venice, but the locations are good, the menu is optimized for consistency and tourist tastes (north american, southeast asia/chineese and european primarily), and most importantly (according to them) they spend a ton of effort optimizing their presence on food review apps like tripadvisor.

Not sayings restaurants are easy, but they are making a shocking amount of money from selling very average food.

Yes, use Fetch API to retrieve the resources, and pass the resulting data to a function that uses the DOM APIs to create the table element + children. If you're not attaching event handlers to the elements, and if the data is properly sanitized, you can also use a combination of `innerHTML` + HTML written in template strings to dynamically create the markup.

Often people will see this and say "that doesn't scale!" Well, yeah, unless you start writing optimizations, at which point, you maybe created your own framework or view library and maybe you should start looking at something like Preact or Mithril.
