That's no uncommon. I've tested hundreds of apps on every Windows OS from 95 to 11 over the years. A bunch that required drivers or tied in more deeply to the OS just failed on Windows XP 64-bit. It does make sense due to Windows XP 64-bit using a different kernel version than 32-bit.
Show HN: International Legal Dictionary
I'm a pro bono attorney, and have been really interested in making the law easier to understand. I also see a ton of government resources online in varying degrees of usability. And for sure, there's no interoperability between them.

This is an international legal dictionary, an experiment in improving the situation: glossaries are scraped and parses from official sources: https://github.com/public-law/open-gov-crawlers. The results are saved as datasets in well formed JSON with Dublin Core metadata: https://github.com/public-law/datasets

I add Library of Congress subject headings to the sources, to enable filtering (still to come).

The web app is basically an old-school mashup, which I've always liked.

Another experiment is using the Dale-Chall readability formula to improve the reader's experience. Here's an example of it at work:

https://www.public.law/dictionary/entries/amicus-curiae

This is an experiment, using readability as a relative metric. I.e., not extracing an absolute grade-level score as its normaly used. Instead, using it to compare different definitions of the same phrase. My theory is, there's strong scientific validity for this use, even when applied to very short passages: All I simply want is to figure out, "Which is more readable? Passage A or B?" And then, my code sorts the definitions in order of readability to (theoretically) produce a newspaper-article-like effect: A reader can read the first couple of sentences to get an overview of the story.
I’m not too proficient with containers so maybe I am ignorant, but I view containers more like a package manager.

A proper golden image pipeline can work well, and you can rightsize your workloads easily.

All of the additional features such as ingress controllers and other complexities make debugging a bit obtuse, especially if you are not extremely proficient.

I could be an old curmudgeon but simplicity is my priority.
I have always had to treat different licenses differently. BSD, MIT, LGPL, GPL, AGPL, Apache, etc. They all mean different things which have impact on how and where I might place them.

Subdividing "source available" as implied but not well defined in this article, into its own group does not substantially help me. When someone describes a useful "open source" thing to me, one of my first questions is which license it is under, and that would be the same whether someone said "source available" or "open source".

Perhaps there's something more behind "punch in the gut", but I don't really know what that is. There's a link to a tweet about these projects being boosted under the open source term, but the tweet has little engagement: 20 project logos, 43 likes. Did it actually reach beyond direct customers? Did the term open source have any impact at all here?
> As a society we should not create our support creating through inaction an environment where people feel it’s necessary to sell their dignity. Would you agree?

Does Amazon run other local warehouses 'out of business'? I wouldn't imagine there to be much competition between local warehouses unless there was a shortage of labor.

Sorry, let me try to be more clear. I believe people are exploring ways to move beyond and no longer have the need for APIs. Webhooks and event architectures are, I believe, stepping stones towards that goal.

That is instead of an architecture that relies on multiple APIs to interact in near real-time. I believe the direction is fewer services that interact with each other asynchronously. And their coordination will be by a Kafka type event log.

I lived in Utah. There’s plenty of MLMs and Ponzi schemes due to the religious culture. Oils, beauty products, blankets, weight loss solutions, workout pants, you name it.

There are many stay at home mothers who get involved in these schemes to make a few dollars here and there. They end up buying plenty of product up front and not being able to sell it.

Hope that helps.

This brings back so many memories. I was in a same situation (reading a book) and needed on digital offline dictionary. I couldn't find anything for my phone back then. It was a Sony Ericson phone with 64MB memory and J2ME as development environment.

Right, the point is that the main article links only to the conspiracy theory and not that article. If it linked to that article people hearing e.g. Jordan Peterson use the term and then googling might be given a history of Marxist theory being applied to culture. Instead they see only that it’s an anti-Semitic right wing conspiracy theory. It’s made worse by the fact that “Marxist cultural analysis” is mentioned in the second paragraph on the “main” conspiracy page but not as a link.

Regardless of belief, and I’m by no means a right winger, do you not see how this will sway the opinion of anyone who googled the term cultural Marxism?

> Forced institutionalization is plainly unconstitutional

It is not illegal to arrest someone for stealing/drug use/etc. and then have a psychiatrist examine them to determine whether they should go to jail or be institutionalized. Courts regularly examine criminals for mental fitness to stand trial already.

> no particular evidence that you can disappear whichever group of undesirables you see fit and guarantee that more won't appear

Funny, because that's exactly what lots of cities do and it works pretty well. Take a look at any wealthy SoCal city and you'll find no homeless.

> a universal housing mandate, and adequate social services (including harm reduction)

So, spending more than the median American makes per year on tents? Or allowing crazy drug addicts to trash temporary housing and hotels? Because that's what happens in SF. From the SF Chronicle, which is a super left leaning publication: "Residents have threatened to kill staff members, chased them with metal pipes and lit fires inside rooms, incident reports show. At the Henry Hotel on Sixth Street, a tenant was hospitalized after a neighbor, for a second time, streamed bug spray into their eyes, public records show. Last May, less than a mile away at the Winton Hotel, a resident slashed another tenant’s face with a knife, leaving a trail of blood out of the building" [1]

And from the director running one of these programs: "“We throw all these people into our hotels who have no demonstrated ability to live independently, who have severe problems and need to be elsewhere,” Shaw said"

Clearly the problem is not housing, it's the lack of support around getting mentally ill people the treatment (i.e. institutionalization) they need. And obviously, a crazy person is not going to consent to treatment for their craziness, so you need to force them into institutionalization.

Not being poor or in debt also helps quite a bit. Having a perspective and not being stuck in jobs that will never pay a house no matter what you do might also help. Having successful parents also helps, otherwise it's difficult to read all the subtle social cues that make a difference. Never felt as anxious and isolated as when hanging around with privileged art students. Subjectively society got a lot more focused on social status than it used to be. People from different backgrounds don't mix up easily anymore and it's subtle. Lacking a perspective and feeling excluded it's hard to not experience anxiety. Experimenting and being brave is also easier if you know you will fall soft. If you don't know how to pay the rent next month you are not going out and make new experiences or learn new skills - you are stuck and nervous. Might be hyperbole but I wouldn't underestimate that as it's difficult to relax in such a situation. Avoiding unpleasant situations and becoming addicted to your phone/internet/media might either be a cause or an effect of this - it's not helping for sure.
Depends. I remember reading a while ago that the average time for a person to fall asleep is 15 minutes. I personally believe I fall asleep instantly, but maybe that’s just me not being conscious enough during those 15 minutes to remember them.

Hydrogen can do that.
Likewise. All negative or positive aspects of the religion aside, the geographical aspect to Mormon congregations build affinity networks quickly. This is both an asset (it can integrate you into a community quickly) while also being a liability (more MLM and Ponzi schemes).

I learned this weekend this geographic designation for local congregations is shared among the Amish, where congregation (to my understanding and happy to be corrected) are between 20-40 families.

Cool concept.

I don't know what it is, but from the article it appears to be a secondary device (Meshtastic) you pair with your iPhone/Android phone via Bluetooth. This secondary device has the giant Lithium cells and microcontroller with the LoRa antenna setup.

Some software package on the phone, perhaps a messaging like app, sends message data (AES encrypted) between your phone and the Meshtastic device. The Meshtastic device somehow knows which other Meshtastic devices to send/receive from?

Feels like the phone shouldn't even be needed is a simple LCD display and tiny keyboard were added to the Meshtastic? (And I suppose the en(de)cryption would have to be done on the device now.
the reason that creative commons isn't confusing and hasn't been co-opted isn't because it makes so much more sense. the reason that it's maintained it's meaning and can't be co-opted is because it is trademarked. if you make something that isn't creative commons but say that it is you can get sued. if you make something that isn't open source and say that it is you cant.
That was the point of the comment you are responding to...
That’s basically what I meant.
Very interesting article and it's worth considering how even though we can easily recognise these stories as being laughably fake these days, it's worth keeping in mind that fearmongering stories like this continue to be peddled to people with certain prejudices, and the only thing that's really changed since then is its shape and approach
This presupposes that economics are the most important thing.

That isn't really the case.

It doesn't matter how much money you have when the climate burns to the ground around you, while energy sources that work when they want to fail to provide for your needs.

> The moon has pits and caves where temperatures stay at roughly 63 degrees Fahrenheit

OK wow. I didn't expect to read that, ever. This is similar to a trip to the all-season beaches near where I live.

How much energy savings does this represent in terms of stuff you would otherwise take with you to the moon? I'm just curious because sometimes there are discoveries like this that are great, but then people jump in to yawn about it because it doesn't really change the going-and-living-there story.
The meetings will continue until morale improves.
the revolution will start across this dimension at some point in time. We're looking at unikernels (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unikernel) and boot times of nanoseconds for these super specialized VMs. The tech and the ideas around it are not quite there but this is an exciting space to watch in the next 5-10 years.
The NSpire was running Lua at one point…
Here's a simple analogy: you have a 2 foot kiddie pool in your back yard. The pressure is whatever pressure water is at under a depth of 2 feet. If you have 2 pools, one radius 5 feet and one radius 10 feet they're both at the same pressure. The depth of the water didn't change. Length of the wall doubled (circumference) but the area squared. This is why you can hold back a storm surge with sandbags. The fact that effectively infinite water is behind it doesn't matter.

If you have some gas stored at 100 psi, you need a wall thickness to withstand 100 psi. If you create a sphere with twice the radius you still need a wall thickness to withstand 100 psi. A bit more than that because the tank also needs to support itself, but that's minor relative to its contents. That's why methane storage tanks are big spheres, to minimize surface area: https://i0.wp.com/tmicoatings.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/09...

I'm not sure how applicable rocket motors are to this comparison (maybe you missed that they were talking about rocket motors?). Rocket motors have a big bell and throttle at the end, which is analogous to a big load. And the bigger the rocket combustor the more thrust it needs to support. This is a whole different kind of load, it's not a simple pressure vessel.

In particular:

> The pressure load trying to cause such a separation is proportional to the surface area of the slice.

This is probably taking into account something like greater fuel combustion. Because otherwise it's blatantly wrong. A tank at 100 psi still has 100 psi of pressure whether it's got a volume of 1 cubic meter or 10 cubic meters.

It does, thank you. I hadn’t considered the stay at home moms.
Insightful comment, thanks. Finding better ways to frame things is an important tool.
This comment is filled with replies from obviously privileged people. I’m very glad there’s people who can look at the world and still think it’s more good than bad, and I sure hope those are the majority, but that’s simply not the case for everyone. Some people unfortunately live with fear not because they read too many news, but simply because the world is hostile to them, and we have to acknowledge that as well.
Can we see a screenshot or some other confirmation that this happened?

Not saying it didn't, but it'd be a great way to tank a competitor's business if it were fake. I wanna be sure before I get a pitchfork out.

To the extent this is legitimate, it definitely seems like grounds for a lawsuit. IANAL, so can't say if it'd succeed, but I am not convinced the last-minute EULA change would save them.
> opportunistically turn a profit

Would you have felt the same way when companies started hiring former slaves, chinese, irish, italians, women, etc.? What you're identifying is a market advantage that companies can gain by being non-discriminatory. You've zeroed in on a major strength of free market economics. Bigotry costs companies money.
That’s a great reason to pick a different term, since “open source” can’t be trademarked. Something with “OSI” in the name probably could…

BTW, I don’t think you can reasonably argue that “attribution non-commercial share-alike” is not more specific and not a better summary of the license conditions than the generic term “open source”. Trademark is a good point, however I think you’re wrong to say that better license titles is not part of why CC licenses are less confusing to a broad range of people.

But there is, and it's likely cheaper than the nuclear answer.
At first I thought it was silly, but in a way, it's like they are acting like the director of a publicity agency. The director doesn't have to know how to draw or paint or whatever, he gives the idea and the direction. There is a lot of talk about the impact the DALL-E revolution will create, I think this is one of them.

People will be like the "directors" of a publicity agency, but as it always happens, some are more skilled with words than words and now to better convey a concept.
Ah! I see your point, Thanks for sharing your perspective.
[I'm not 100% sure if you saw my response, apologies if this is repetitive] Below are a few differentiators than existing solutions

1. Less expensive, 2. Encourages collaboration between internal dev teams by connecting to active directory (or source of authentication & authorization), 3. Curation i.e. takes care of the lifecycle management i.e. design, arch. approval, development, test, release, production, versioning, monitoring, deprecation. 4. Compliance - PCI compliance and app management (generating clientIDs and secrets, rotation included) 5. Multi cloud-native 6. Simpler UI/UX experience 7. API based role access.

Fully understand that these feature sets may overlap with existing players.

Interesting no points on the ecology of what the water might bring to the West. I’m sure there some other concerns missing.
Agreed. Natural gas is not a feasible alternative to coal and oil on its own as the greenhouse emissions are simply to high. However, a natural gas power plant that runs only when demand calls for it and renewables (+ stored renewables) are unable to supply is not an end of the world scenario (which our current climate trajectory certainly is).

I’m even hopeful of a future where these natural gas plants will have carbon capture employed. But you are right, as it stands natural gas power plant is not a solution to the climate crisis.
Both major parties have a terrible track record on surveillance and censorship, but one is still much worse than the other.

I'd rather have Labor push some bullshit legislation then shelve it when it's unpopular than the Liberals who just ram it through because God told them to.

Btw those "90% of Australian Internet users being censored" was a couple of major ISPs putting in a DNS block that can be worked around in 5 seconds. These days it's probably more like 20% because most people are on one of the newer ISPs like Aussie Broadband that don't truck with that nonsense.

The whole thing ended up being a classic "let the industry regulate itself so we can save face" maneuver in the end, virtually identical to just binning the policy entirely but with much less political blowback.

Passing the AA bill in 2018 was a much bigger failure from Labor (btw I'm happy to see our "protection over Christmas from ISIS then we'll revisit it" has lasted going on 4 years now, couldn't have fucking seen that coming). But again, it was literally a Liberal party bill, so I don't see how they don't take the lion's share of the blame for it.
If you ignore the fact that wind and solar work when they want to, you're absolutely right.
Design Is History
Not at all. I am just pointing out that there is a lot of virtue signalling going on and very little problem solving. Don’t you agree that inviting a single homeless person into your home or backyard will actually solve a real problem? Imagine if 30k people decided to do that? It would take 30k homeless people off the street! Just like that. So why don’t you go ahead and do that? Show leadership and inspire others? Be a hero!

This already happens at other companies, check the grandparent comment.

I have found a few articles which claim Amazon's contracted delivery drivers (which is a pretty sketchy practice tbh) work 14 hour days.

14 hour days aren't great, but I don't think it's particularly stunning. Nurses regularly work 12 hours shifts and often pick up more hours for overtime pay. Truck drivers drive a maximum of 11 hours a day, which is probably pretty close to what Amazon delivery drivers do once you consider time picking up packages and getting up to deliver them.

If delivery drivers work ~40 hours a week (~3 days a week on, 4 days off) that sounds like a pretty okay arrangement. If they're working 14 hours a day, 5 days a week, then that's rough. Based on some quick Googling it seems like they target a 40 hour work week, but maybe there are some articles of them being pressured/forced to do more.
You get promoted at Google not for improving and maintaining great products, but for building and releasing a product. This is why you see them building seemingly competing products for the exact same sector (Duo and Allo anyone?). Someone leads the project, they get dozens of engineers to work on it, it gets released and announced at Google I/O. The manager who got the project completed gets promoted, the product ends up languishing.

There's no incentive to maintain a product, or improve a product, so Google just puts out an endless series of half baked products and abandons them, while existing products are barely touched. If their only real goal is to produce new executives and higher level managers, the system works great.
So strange. I had never heard of. Go ask Alice, and then last week I was listening to a 5-year-old podcast episode of "I Only Listen to the Mountain Goats" and they were talking about it.
