Horse shoe theory. If you go far enough right you have all the same concerns of an state ran communist state. Small group of people pulling the strings only difference is allotments vs rent/lease/mortage/debt.

The fear has been that if you go left, you won't own anything. But then introduce companies like Blockrock that take advantage of owned assets during inflation to leverage more debt to outpace the consumers ability to buy their own assets.

So becoming more moderate it to admit something. This isn't about having a well function economy that is based on innovation. This is just speculative meta game that has ursped innovation itself as a profit mode.

This doesn't include the impact of global trade and the ultimate effect on an economy that doesn't produce anything for itself. We need factories that can make goods to the exact needs of the user. Not arbitrary mass manufacturing that only winds up in the landfill on a couple years.

Want something endless to drive the economy that doesn't rely on making endless junk? Look at the mobile game industry, digital goods, entertainment, blueprints and simulated protypes.

Going "right," does not trend towards progress. The democrats must become more "conservative." The fundamental flaw of speculation is the reliance on previous investments and the inability to liquidate to switch towards renewables.. etc... etc...

Which kind of speaks wonders how well the community is aware of good debugging tools, or willing to contribute to improve them, versus the commercial OSes.
Funny, I was thinking quantum computers are actually replaying the transition from analog to digital. The qubits you get from pure analog control are too noisy (1e-3 gate failure rate). You need error correction to get to good error rates (like 1e-12). Error corrected operations are digital: they come from a small finite supported set, and you achieve operations outside of that set by composition. For example, operations with continuous control (like arbitrary rotations) would be decomposed into a series of axis-aligned 45 degree rotations. Similar to how an analog voltage addition gets digitized into a series of FULLADDER/HALFADDER blocks.
By default firefox only prevents content with audio from autoplaying, which I can't think of any way to circumvent and it's probably good enough for most people.
If you can use emscripten to compile all stuff to Javascript, then what’s the point of WASM? Smaller instruction set? It’s a serious question. All the JS has the same properties, it seems, as WebAssembly. The runtime implementers can reason about it better?
Sherlock Holmes stories are interesting. The last ones were published in 1929 IIRC. So there are still some under copyright, and so Doyle's literary estate is still claiming some rights.

Mid 20th Century, the term was 28 years with a 28 year extension.

Let's see, 56 years ago is 1966, so a whole lotta goodies would be public domain under that regime.

Now it's life of author plus 70 years. So a 22 year old writes a book, lives to 92, then another 70 years. So it's in copyright for 140 years. That seems like a long time.
> I went to dominos.com and saw they have a 3 topping large pizza for $8 (pickup).

Ah, the in-app coupons. Honestly, these are kind of a requirement nowadays if you want any fast food for a decent price.

Go look on your phone for the price of that same Domino's pizza without the coupon: for me, that same pizza would be $21.24 before sales tax. The coupon is a 62.5% discount!

When the had the "$3 off pickup" coupons for a while that stacked ($10 minimum), you could extend it to a 69.5% discount.

--

Earlier this week I coupon stacked and got a McDonald's double cheeseburger, a large diet soda, a Wendy's Crispy Chicken Sandwich (+Tomato, +Pickles) and a Wendy's large fry for a total of $2.88 across both transactions, sales tax included. 1300 calories that served as both my lunch AND dinner. I couldn't make equivalent food at home for that price, despite sale shopping.

Without coupons, and deal stacking? $9.54, which means I got a 70% discount.

If I bought all that in just one of the stores (instead of going to two, since they're next to each other), it'd likely be closer to $11.
That's semantics imo. If pacifism results in extinction, then any revision of human nature that involves it is irrelevant. Humans don't exist without violence.
That speaks more to socialism's enduring PR successes than reality. Lenin's Red Army didn't roll into Poland in 1918 to spread worldwide revolutionary socialism with just flowers and poetry. That happened basically immediately proceeding from the success of the October Revolution.
You skipped that part of the Wikipedia article: "but none of these have achieved wide use."

Arobase is used a lot in France, probably like the other Spanish and Portuguese terms. However, the English ones not so much.
Hi HN! Exciting to see this model get some attention.

Admittedly, it is mostly a sketch. I created this model in self-study but published it just in case it might help someone else. As Brené Brown says, I'm trying to get it right, not to be right.

Still, I think there's a few key insights here:

1. As other replies have suggested, this model might not fit you. Procrastination is an umbrella term that describes a variety of issues, and sometimes those issues interlock! If you're struggling to match intention with action, find your model. Also, talk to a counsellor. They really help.

2. Systems sketching — in combination with self-study of our thoughts and behaviours — is a really interesting way to understand our own cognitive-behavioural problems. In my case, I sketched this model after realizing for the first time that anxiety might play a role in my procrastination behaviours. It helped me see how powerful that role really was.

After creating this model at the beginning of 2022, I engaged a counsellor and have been doing a lot more self-study. A work-in-progress on a far more involved (and idiosyncratic) model is available here: https://embed.kumu.io/fc78b8660224a57734e0bb6c52cebbd8

(Oddly enough, this was shared about 24 hours after I finished a research paper on all this work. I'll share that via my blog if and when it gets accepted by the destination.)

Thanks for a rich discussion — and thanks Kumu team for addressing the traffic spike issues.
Yeah, no need for semantics, we agree on evolution "emergent" property.. I was just trying to explain that the aggressive nature of boys is not just a poor defect. In a random bath of beings, if you're too passive, the more aggressive ones will stomp you brainlessly.
I love the comments debating over what chip specification should be advertised... if a chip is stable at 2.2 GHz, and many are unlikely to perform at 2.4 GHz, it should just be advertised as a 2.2 GHz chip (despite many being able to perform better).

The BCM2711 in the Raspberry Pi 4 model B (even the older B0 revision) was clocked at 1.5 GHz by default to save on heat, and for stability, even though most (in my testing, all I've ever used) can run at 1.8 GHz without issue in most environments, and 2.0 or more with better active cooling.
Interesting the way that you group "not very smart" and "girlfriendless" with "delivery rider" as if being a gig worker makes you some kind of undesirable loser. Nice casual elitism.
Hugo in combination with the Congo Theme (see https://github.com/jpanther/congo) has scratched this itch for me. The theme is well thought out and has all the features I need.

There's the usual youtube and vimeo integration, but also

- integration with Flowcharts through mermaid https://jpanther.github.io/congo/samples/diagrams-flowcharts...

- charts through Chart.js https://jpanther.github.io/congo/samples/charts/

- and even LaTeX support: https://jpanther.github.io/congo/samples/mathematical-notati...
I spent some time in Northern Syria and there were quite a few "child" soldiers there (mostly teenagers), as well as people who grew up as children in war. I'm sure it was partially a coping mechanism, but I found many of them embraced and enjoyed their existence fighting the enemy that claimed the lives of their family members. The military also provides a sort of place for brotherhood and oddly stability (food / depending on where youre stationed shelter) at least until things really go sidewise.
Reminds me of the Corriganville park, just inside the TMZ (thirty mile zone).
This will be twisted to mount an argument to get people back into open plan office hell.
You can run LaTeX-to-HTML/SVG/... server-side too.
the ability to externalize one's thoughts

If you're truly stuck in that scenario I'd agree. I'd add that physically writing helps [1] even more than typing, since you're slowing down the externalizing and writing was one of the first means of expression you mastered unconsciously at an early age. I personally spend enough time expressing myself into code/"the internet" that writing feels less formal and it gets me away from screen burn.

Even further, thinking about how God, family, and friends would describe your events or provide their input also provides some of that cognitive boost. Like imagine writing the same journal entry but from five different perspectives.

That said I really don't try to invite social isolation into my life for long. Talking to a friend for 20min is better than any VR, Zoom, journal, etc. Part of the reason is it's also an opportunity to give back to friends... Give encouragement, give your time, give energy, give perspective. You can only love others so much through a journal, and as one Jesus once said "it is more blessed to give than to receive"

This was basically the first lesson in automation class, which made an impact at the time.

A safety switch should be normally closed, energizing a normally open relay, such that any broken cables or connections would be like hitting the switch, causing the relay to de-energize, subsequently cutting power to the main circuit.
Up over 2020 which saw a global pandemic and a shutdown of most of the developed world.
I'm still missing the "share tab" option in Google and Jitsi Meet, without it work meetings get a lot less private. I've found a pretty good plugin to fix the 'tabs that don't look like tabs' design problem, though it's a real pain in the ass to install and a major problem when switching to new devices. I'm not sure why they changed that, the old design was a lot clearer. On the other hand the fact that it doesn't support Chromecast is a big plus, since that's impossible to turn off in Chrome with recent updates and can it be problematic if you're not the owner of all Chromecasts on your damn network.

As of right now Firefox stays the side browser for code testing and whatnot, but it falls short for daily use for me.
This is not a legit way. That is illegal.
That genre seems to be in the midst of a rush, with every publisher Indy or large trying to pump out games in that genre.

I generally like it, but my steam queue are now filled to the brim with crappy, rushed survival games trying to copy everything else all because I played Ark and Valheim a few times.
> Having an education and little investment in the existing social order

The problem back then was the latter. Many of them were not interested in productive work of any kind, simply because their pre-modern worldview would've equated this with a loss of station. Hence the sense of "elite" entitlement and ensuing "radicalization".
The theory at least, especially at a smaller public company, is that a fair number of people potentially have access to information about things, including some feel for where financial results are ending up. Therefore, rather than shrug and tell people to use their own best judgment about their trading on material non-public information, you put a trading window in place that takes a fair bit of judgment out of it.
This is what’s typically done for founders—it’s called reverse vesting where the company gradually loses the right to repurchase them over time. Generally this is done when the company is new, pre-409a.

There’s nice tax advantages to this approach if you make an 83b election since the shares start counting toward long-term capital gains immediately.
The democratic party in the US spans center-left to center-right and is expressly in favor of more rights to the people for common concerns like who a person is allowed to have sex with, marry, and choose to reproduce with (or not).
Fair; but at the same time I have a feeling we would not hear much about it if theirs was issues
I am curious. I barely know any webdev and only program C and C++. Are there things that one still need JS for even though using webassembly ?

If you think so, why?

(Second-hand) Anecdata: My Grandpa was born in '39, was 6 when the war ended and lived very close to a big city / region that was bombed regularly by the Allies from '42-'45. He was old enough to remember this and the (light) fighting when the Americans arrived.

After the war, he and the local kids played with live guns that the German soldiers just threw away. They used a Flak (anti aircraft cannon) as a carousel, played with the shells of it and used the local bunkers to play "soldier", with some playing the Germans and some playing the Americans.

So I'm not sure whether or not spending the childhood in a war zone actually changes the perspective of children (to the better). It sure can later, when they become adults, though.
Is there a way to make TST look nicer? I’m sure a lot of people appreciate its UI, but it really stands out to me in a negative way.
Taco Bell food is more like the Subway sandwich quality food. Its not the best but its available everywhere. We have places that sell Döner Kebab but its small chains here and there.

Capitalism does it pretty well problem there is that outside information technology those frontiers are kinda closed now at western countries thanks strong regulation or need for several years of education.
I often feels that when digital components are numerous enough, you fall back into statistical/analog thinking anyway (even if it's just a case of a few thousands of VMs respawning on need). No more discrete perfect information.. but flocks of potentials.
I dunno, but they’d probably use catchphrases like “And so, my fellow Americans, ask not what your country can do for you -- ask what you can do for your country.”
The answer to this is sports. War is competition through violence. When you remove the violence you get peaceful competition. It satisfies the tribal urge to fight things different than you, but also encourages healthy behaviors. Respect for your opponent. Accepting loss. Recognizing your weaknesses and working to improve them.
Right, it would be silly to intercept the syscalls and just pass them on as is to the host kernel. If you just want to validate/filter things for security reasons, there are existing Linux APIs for that.
Ask HN: Death of a thousand (dark pattern) cuts
Went to set up my new car payment...stymied because I could only find 3 of the 4 things I needed. (one, single, hardcopy had the account number in full)

Went to cancel Paramount+...instructions online didn't match the steps needed to do so. (Hit star on your roku and unsubscribe...but it only worked on one of our Rokus)

Went to add information to my insurance claim only to find they'd closed it and the location to add info was well hidden. (All communications are on the claim associated with the vehicle...until they submit the first check, then it dives 8 layers deep, in the closed claims dungeon)

Streaming service? That one's intentional
Bank? Probably intentional to cut down on fraud

Insurance? Probably intentional to cut total audience interaction by X%

Man does the internet seem to suck, the closer I look at it.
Interesting article but he wants to tax the “profit of compute, network, etc…” but how you can legally define the profits generate from network data or computing power?

You can already tax the power consumption, or the company profits, but I see hard to find what he describes in the article. And also lots of super computer are made by states/research centers/universities and companies already pay to use the computing capability.
Superfood animals because they eat literal garbage; you're still not escaping the order of magnitude conversion loss going through a trophic level. In addition we don't know all the long-term impacts of eating poultry (or any animal for that matter) given growth hormone stimulating factors. We also know that red and processed meats definitely cause cancer, and cooking "lean" meats / fish creates compounds likely to cause cancer in humans (and proven in animal models).

You could use chickens to deal with food waste, but you could waste less food? Most chickens are grain fed anyways—typically corn and soybean. Those calories are already food, you don't need to convert them besides cooking them. You're also using a living being as a means to an end and giving most of them a terrible existence to fit 72B on the terrestrial surface.
Common should probably give way to expected. The Navy uses tehtered control on its torpedos for the utmost in stealthy attacks. If the best the Navy and military budgets can come up with is tethered control, not likely something in the hobby world will be better.
What customization do you use? Personally I only customized FF by adding a youtube video downloaded, and I just open Firefox whenever I need that.
Any general purpose VM is fine, including the VMs behind JavaScript, but just double check that's actually what's being compared instead of inter JavaScript and VM performance. How many times per second you can call 1-5 line functions from a webpage's execution context is comparing the latter and as the article notes at the end:

> definitely don’t go converting all your websites’ JavaScript to WebAssembly! However, that’s not really the aim of WebAssembly. Its aim is to enable richer experiences on the web that require higher performance, for example machine learning, virtual reality, or gaming.

WASM functions aren't meant to replace small JS functions on your standard website. It's meant to be a general purpose VM you can target large amounts of non-webpage code to.
Only if you were white middle class.
The 'long run' is just a bunch of 'short runs' glued together in an infinite sequence.

Given that what Graham said does not falsify what the author of this piece claims.

Sure maybe the cults would rotate, so today is all about Tesla and Gamestop tomorrow will all be about cryonics and life extension companies, but there will always be a certain % of cults in the stock market, and they'd dominate the conversation because of the meteoric rise in the price of the stock, that would compel people to think about how their lives would have changed had they thrown their money at it in the early days.
Oh, I forgot to add: Tim Pychyl's work and podcast was such an essential resource for me as I started to take my procrastination issues more seriously.[1]

Tim's a procrastination researcher out of the University of Ottawa, I think. The podcast does a fantastic job of making current research on procrastination accessible and engaging.

Note that the Swiss railway is charged fines for lateness to be paid to the state - so while I wouldn't say it's impossible that they just went and decided to take these measures to prevent rail buckling proactively, it's just as likely that they did the cost vs. payoff math.

So yes, society did solve this problem by electing officials who put those clauses into the railway's operating license - but there are a lot of steps in there that shouldn't be overlooked.
Nothing. People have been able to compile other languages into java bytecode for decades already. That didn't turn java into the one true runtime to rule them all, and webassembly will not be any different.

I wish browser makers would focus into making the browser user and development experience actually work instead of going after the latest shiny feature.
War is plenty of fun as long as nobody gets hurt - but that's kind of tautological. Real wars are no fun, and that's what pacifists argue against.

Dropcash – A crypto wallet with no network fees
I thought I might share a project we’ve been working on for those interested, and would love to hear any thoughts on what we’re building.

We’ve been working on a crypto wallet that will have no network fees or near-zero network fees. Scalability issues and network congestion have led to increasingly high gas fees, making it less feasible for users to transact on these blockchains.

Gas fees have always been a pain point for newcomers and existing crypto users, and we believe that for crypto/Web3 to attain accelerated adoption, the future of transacting within these applications will be near zero-cost or completely gas-less, just like it is on Web2.

The wallet will operate on the Ethereum blockchain to begin with, as this is where high gas fees are a major problem and can cost an exorbitant amount. The idea is to build on top of a layer-2 protocol/zero-knowledge rollup to solve Ethereum’s scalability whilst retaining the security and integrity of the Ethereum blockchain. We’re also looking into using meta-transactions to help prevent users from having to deal with gas fees every time they transact.

We think solving the problem of network fees and focusing on greater usability will play a paramount role in making crypto/Web3 more accessible, and we hope to be able to contribute to onboarding the next wave of crypto users.

We're at a very early stage and are currently still building and ironing things out, but I just wanted to share our approach and thought process.

We would really love to hear any input or feedback, thanks!
They've already messed with it a few times, the dog isn't the same as it used to be (and the polish sausage isn't an option anymore iirc) and the soda went from Coca Cola to Pepsi; I assume they made a deal with Pepsi where they get it for free.
That information is outdated; I build FF from source a couple of times a week, and use python3.9 for mach's python. I do agree the build is special needs, made worse by all the rust, but of the things I really hate about Firefox, the build is pretty low on that list

The Chromium (and its derivatives) builds makes it clear they have a compile farm of unlimited compute and ram, so it's just "which kind of bad" I nowadays, I guess
