Minecraft is teaching kids a lot about computers, especially if they get the chance to use the more hackable Java version. It's not usually as low level as we got to in the 80s, but there are exceptions to that too (I don't know exactly how old the guy who built a pipelined RISC processor in redstone is, but I suspect they're at least 15 years younger than me).
How do you know? The font number does not matter as the website wont see that. To check uniqueness of the fonts you would need to actually compare the content of installed font, not only the name. It would be totally possible that the installer is packed with the font, but dynamically alters it before actually installing it.
> To my mind the biggest problem is the hours of human life wasted on performative make-work while most citizens in a supposedly rich country barely spend any time on things that are actually fulfilling for them.

The idea that citizens of a rich nation has some natural right to live a fulfilling life just because the country happens to be rich, is hubris on the one hand, and also entitle on the other.

People work to obtain the resources to live off. Some can produce _more_ (due to luck, or skill), and those are the ones who would be able to give up productive work and focus on "what's fulfilling" (aka, climb up the maslow pyramid).

Some people don't get to do that climb - that's just reality of scarcity of resources today. Until the day the world becomes like star-trek, where people's basic needs a completely covered without any labour input from any humans (in which case, they spend time exploring the galaxy!), it cannot be that all people fulfill their higher needs in the maslow pyramid.
Wow, thanks. I was wrong. I will check out the other TTF fonts.

Show HN: Calcutext – Do calculations with your written text
I was finally able to finish this open-source project that I built to about 90% completion nearly 2 years ago when my daughter was born, during my 1-month parental leave, and then sadly left untouched until a few weeks ago. Hope you enjoy trying out the app and looking at the source code! :)

That is super odd - I’m wondering if they just messed up some CSS. Another win for reader mode I suppose.

> Then there are collisions of galaxy clusters at high velocity, like the bullet cluster or the el gordo cluster. These are difficult to explain with particle dark matter, because dark matter creates friction and that makes such high relative velocities incredibly unlikely. Yes, you heard that correctly, the Bullet cluster is a PROBLEM for dark matter, not evidence for it.
As long as you don't have to keep the string connected to use the device after pairing, I think that's a good idea.
The apparent desire for paternalism unnerves me. Any time people are free to choose who they associate with, they run the risk of coming across bad actors who would scam them or worse. In most domains of life, we have special protections for the senile elderly and children but everybody else is given freedom and subsequently expected to develop and exercise a sense of good judgement, because freedom is more important than security.

But in the specific case of iphones, the argument is made that giving rational level-headed adults the freedom to associate with the software they wish would imperil children and the elderly, and you don't have to look far to find somebody arguing that that risk outweigh any other consideration. If this belief were likely to be limited to iphones I wouldn't really care, I'd simply not buy an iphone. But I fear special-case exceptions don't stay that way forever, and I fear Apple's style of paternalism (which is very profitable) will inevitably spread and become difficult if not impossible to avoid unless stomped out soon.
I'd suggest that the current yellow isn't very useful. Right piece wrong move=yellow seems much closer to the spirit for me
Carlsen was 2853 rated in November 2016, December 2016 it was 2840 after playing the WC match against Karjakin in November.

Winning against Anand in 2013 gave him 2 points. I think he got 1 point for beating Nepo in 2021.

With that, reaching 2900 seems almost impossible. He was at 2882 two times, but when you need almost perfect score to achieve it it's hard.
The object of a public transportation system is to transport the public, not individual people. That means mass design considerations, which are the same considerations as anti-congestion. Reducing pollution is a nice side effect.

NYC needs a broader bus network, but it doesn't need to use the existing large (or XL articulated aka bendy bus) to do so.

Hong Kong has Public Light Buses that carry 1M passengers a day: https://www.td.gov.hk/en/transport_in_hong_kong/public_trans...

Dollar vans effectively do this currently, but it's cheaper than any light rail or other solution, especially for outer borough transportation.
> The reason this regulations went through easily is that they mostly target foreign operators.

Because 1) foreign operators do the fuck they want in unregulated markets such as the US and 2) there are no such operators in the EU because they have already been regulated
Mm, kinda. The following hypothetical feels fairly likely within 12 months of 3rd party app stores being mainstream:

(1) App deals with sensitive or linenced content — doesn't matter what, DRM, medical info, private chat, take your pick.

(2) App integrates 3rd party library to look for other apps that might be trying to steal your data and/or record the DRMed stream you're playing. This 3rd party library injects itself at the lowest level possible in order to catch anything injecting itself even lower.

(3) Bug in library (or supply chain attack in the app as a whole) means the phone is now less secure than if the app had not been installed.

The difference from the status quo is, the iOS app store won't let apps root the phone. (IDK if the Android store prevents or allows that).

(I know games aren't "must have" apps, but this has already happened with anti-cheat rootkits. And "has this phone been rooted" software already gets used, but doesn't yet need to preemptively root the phone itself, at least not so far as I've seen).
> Micro-services require justification

Since the micro-service craze started, I've been yelling this from the rooftops. Making everything a micro-service by default is pure insanity. The overhead to maintain them requires exponentially more resources than a monolith or a few services. A few weeks before I left my last job, a very high level engineer gave a presentation where he stated, in all seriousness, that we should be producing one micro-service per day with the goal to be two per day after one year. I didn't need any motivation to leave but that would have done the trick.

> They forgot the noscript/basic (x)html interoperability for the web.

I agree that interoperability on the web should be protected at least as much as on mobile, since the web as a platform has the potential to be more open than the tightly integrated mobile ecosystems.

Unfortunately, what that would look like in practice is harder to say, as I don't think governments could mandate "Semantic Web" versions of all websites, even though that would give true client choice and allow the building of complementary services.

My main disappointment with the legislation is that "core messaging interoperability" doesn't also require interoperability between social networks, since a Facebook user should be able to send a DM to a Twitter user, for example, and ActivityPub solves the more general issue of social network federation.
I think you'll find that most operating systems have this built in, syslog for Linux and the event log on Windows. We actually use SPLUNK which has lots of tools for collecting data from apps using different methods, and also tools for viewing and querying the data.

Florida is connecting Miami, Ft Lauderdale, and Orlando this year for a total cost of $3-4 billion. That’s $7.3 million per mile, and it was mostly paid for by private enterprise instead of the government. Development started in 2012, with Miami to West Palm Beach opening in 2018. CHSR started development in 2008, and isn’t slated to operate anything until 2029. When it does operate, it’ll link Merced and Bakersfield.

Florida will be operating the fastest trains in the US this year.

My Toyota only plays my iPhone bluetooth if (a) my car is in bluetooth "mode" and not radio and (b) I have my music app open.

I've never experienced what you (two) describe. 2020 Toy and iPhone 11.
It's just an ekranoplan with a lower range, lower speed and less capacity than a traditional jet powered one. And even those didn't catch on because of the calm seas requirement and because it's easier and more practical to just fly.
Bluetooth works ok if you're not sharing receivers or if you don't have more than one device acting as transmitter. Anything beyond that where you're mixing and switching devices, or sharing receivers (like multiple speakers in your household etc.) it gets so easily confused.

I've even had problems following my wife's car. Despite being fully paired with my car and working great, the transmitter (phone) will keep trying to connect to hers.

It's probably one of the most frustrating mainstream technologies that you're basically forced to use as physical connections become less and less available.

I remember Caruana mentioning how he wasn't prepared for how much Carlsen "understood" him (not exact words from the video, but something to that effect).

It sounded sort of like a side mind game that Carlsen plays on his opponents. It made it clear that Carlsen really studies his opponents and not just their past games.
Yeah. The live element brings something else to the table. It's not only knowing what to do, but being able to execute.

I've played Starcraft off and on, mostly through the Brood War days, and never super competitively. My friends and I had a standing Friday night game we'd play. We were ok.

My brother-in-law came to stay with us for a while and he had never played Starcraft before but wanted to try it out. So I said, sure, we can 2v2 the computer so you can get a handle on things. We'll play Terran since it's the most like Warcraft. He told me he's played Age of Empires, he knows what RTSs are like. He'll be fine, he wanted to 1v1. I asked him if he was sure because Starcraft was a much faster game than AoE. He said he was sure, it would be fine.

So we played. I played a pretty standard build order, sent out my 10th/11th worker as a scout, found his base, saw he was still on his initial set of workers and building a barracks with one of them. So I built my second base on his expansion spot, got it up to speed, built a couple of barracks, and a couple of machine shops, cranked out some marines, medics, and siege tanks, and to top it off, I build a starport and some drop ships. Loaded up the squad and dropped them behind his mineral line, obliterated his economy, then rolled through his base.

Public transit that is not subway on rails suck big time.

I have wasted thousands of hours waiting for the bus that either came early, or is late, under 100 degrees of sun and under snowstorms. Add to that the <10mph average speed that a typical bus that stops every 2 minutes achieves, and a 2mile commute can last easily 45 minutes.

I have walked thousands of miles because the bus stops do not align with my destinations.

Since I got a car and live in the suburbs, I pay much lower housing costs, I start exactly 20’ before my punch in time, I park under my office building and I am never late (maybe 1/300 due to an accident). Oh and I always arrive dry.

Commuting in general is bad. Commuting by bus is one of the worst things that us peasants have to deal with on a daily basis.
> People are very time sensitive.

People have been convinced they need to be time sensitive. "30 minutes or it's free", "next day shipping", etc. are everywhere. In many cases, we're not as time sensitive as we've been trained to think.

American public transit is so frequently poor that it often means a 10 minute trip by car might be two hours by bus, but a whole bunch of people would be fine with a 30-45 minute option being available.
>When you're arguing SHOULD, you're not arguing DOES.

As is the person who I was reply to, their comment was that the government should not need to view taxation as revenue, I disagree

>You're also wrong about the inevitability of currency collapse

In the extreme of the parent comment, were a government ceases taxation (since they do not need the revenue) and just prints money to pay for everything the collapse of that currency is inevitable.
Ok but if nobody has to work why aren't we better off? Isn't it strange that humans fear every day that they keep getting more and more for less and less until they get everything for nothing?

It is the future, getting the large inefficient buses off the system is the goal.

His thesis that the vehicles meander and no technology will fix that is refutable in that technology can identify opportunities to minimize inefficiencies. A good algorithm will create efficient routes for the flexible transit.

Finally, the author is a public transit consultant. He is not going to be good for a reference when he is on one side of an item. He may be a subject matter expert, but he is blinded to what can be accomplished. Judging from other people’s comments from other countries, my thesis is more accurate.
I have a theory which I can’t substantiate, just anecdotes and conversations I had throughout the years. But, I’m convinced a lot of depression/anxiety stems from thinking too much and that in turn is caused by an ever complex word with looser and looser guidelines or norms.

I’m not making judgements weather this is necessarily good or bad but rather observing.

In the past, even as recent as the 50s but certainly before the 20th century, a persons course in life was mostly determined at birth.

You’re born, you play, you grow up, work the fields or a job, get married, have kids of your own and die. Society was more rigid and pretty much funnelled you through a “tried and tested path”, for good or for worse. And the lack of information made things “simpler” in a way in the sense you had a small number of people to get input from. Take child rearing for example. Many modern people worry so much and research ways to “optimise” their children for example ( I’m thinking of a lot of questions I saw on the parenting stack overflow ) whereas in the last, you’d just ask your own parents. And, since they were older, the assumption was they knew what they where talking about, even if it was not necessarily true. Same with health, same with sexuality, relationships, a lot of things.

Essentially lack of information and a rigid social structure meant fewer choices which meant less thinking. And less thinking meant less depression and anxiety.

Now when you have a world of information at your hands, you have way more things to think about, to worry about and to look for information on how to fix or improve.

I’m not sure medication, even “working” one is a sustainable solution to what appears to me to be an environmental problem rather than a biological one.
i'd say the free market is more efficient than a command economy. Even if it's not perfectly efficient, it's quite close.
The DMA and DSA will be enforced by the Commission, rather than by member states' local authorities which - hopefully - will avoid the problems we've seen with the GDPR.
I was in a Volkswagen rental last week and the Carplay integration was a disaster. 50% of the time, attempting to play a song on spotify would crash Carplay. It would refuse to work again (or hey, crash again) until you'd left the car off for a lengthy amount of time. Presumably the car turns off the infotainment system at some point, so this is a reboot, but there was no way to reboot manually... So it would remain broken for the drive.

Seems like manufacturers aren't integrating particularly robust systems on the average

I take the buses in Brooklyn pretty regularly, and I don't find the routes themselves especially lacking[1]. But higher volume would be nice, and I'd be interested to see evidence presented that smaller buses would accomplish that (versus more dedicated bus lanes and high fines for blocking the lanes).

Barring internal labor politics, infrastructure immediately near docks and rail shouldn't be an issue to upgrade as the sheer scale of modern cargo vehicles means you could get all the resources for such in a single load.

Also I believe most ships are "hybrids" anyway, in that their props are driven by motors directly connected to generators on their engines, since when you are dealing with engines that are literally two stories tall creating a matching gearbox becomes quite difficult. As such the biggest pain point will be battery capacity, but if we are willing to forgo the logistical difficulties of super-massive ships can be brute-forced with lower quality batteries in even more massive ships.
No, but it's one way to expose them.

So what I'm hearing is we need to just invest in more trains.
I believe the point was more than if you have a team of, say, ten people, there's always someone who is not busy for some given night, and there's some reasonable trade that can be worked out, the moreso if oncall risk is considered low by the team. Obviously as you scale down that becomes less true.
How practical would it to open source advanced chip designs and focus on making them easy to make.

Could it be possible to spin up a fab within a few years at a price or under 10 million. Even if your designs are 10 or 15 years behind that's better than nothing.

Or I guess you could establish an electrics recycling program and strip old GameCubes...

There are some concerning departures from this with medical approvals based not on treatment, but biomarkers.

Without getting too political, two noteworthy recent examples come to mind. The first is abelacimab for alzheimer's, approved based on plaque, not disease progression.

The other is juvenile covid vaccines, approved based on antibody presence.

I’m excited to check this out when I get to a desktop! The widgets on the landing page are getting scrunched to death on mobile.
Why is Apple able and willing to offer free, easy to use Remote Desktop capability for both macOS and iOS, but Microsoft does not?

I've always felt like there was something wrong with how outliers were framed, as though they were wrong, errors, illegitimate, mistakes, noise, etc. They are just, possibly, points from some other process than the one you're interested in.

It’s Time to Say Goodbye to These Obsolete Python Libraries
You buried the lede for this piece. It doesn’t say that micro transit is a bad idea, just that its objectives are different than fixed route transit. Specifically, it optimizes for coverage instead of ridership, which makes sense for low density areas.

Even the NPR article says that larger cities are experimenting with micro transit but only for harder-to-reach areas.

It has a place as a complement to fixed route transit, not as a replacement.
