"Would like to" is doing a whole lot of heavy lifting here. I'd argue that a large fraction of people live not where they "would like to," but where they can afford.
We can only hope. The FTC and SEC have been largely absent in the 21st century. We need the CPC to start taking priority over stock price and the market.
Yes, using the correct definitions of words is very silly, especially when it is politically inconvenient. Very, very silly.
I've a Xiami / Roborock S5 for almost 5 years now (give or take a few months) and their LIDAR implementation is absolutely genius - no issues whatsoever, no matter what gets moved around or not...

Must've been Neatos implementation i suppose...

On top of the really top-notch LIDAR the S5 is beautifully engineered as well - basically everything is a module (i.e. wheel+motor) which is plugged in and secured with a few screws - really good repairability and also spares are available (needed so far: 1 LIDAR motor, 2,50€; 1 resettable fuse for charging).
The last couple years they've been way better as well, somehow that massive "we're fixing customer service" push kinda worked
C's secret to portability is called #ifdef spaghetti and mostrosities like autoconf.
I don't know, I think there's also room for people (like me) who understand the tracking going on and are frankly just fine with it. These privacy fears have been around since the 90s, when people were terrified of using their real names online. But they're just not a big deal to many people.

Watching Apple and Facebook duke it out was mildly entertaining, but at the end of the day, life went on without much difference.

I've had my Google account privacy turned way down for years because I found that recommendations were better when Google knew everything about me. I didn't mind giving Google all that data. What finally stopped me wasn't privacy concerns, but that all my trivial web searches started to leak into a redesigned Google News, leading to it becoming useless. I was sad, because I would rather they have implemented more controls over the feed algorithm rather than force me to turn off history-based recommendations. Guess they're taking a play out of tiktok's book?

For a decade, Google has known my precise location at all times, my browsing history, my weight, my heart rate, my emails and texts, my pictures... and you know what? Nothing much has happened. It wasn't a huge positive or negative.

Privacy just isn't a big deal day in and day out. Nobody has any today and somehow we're OK...
The obvious counterpoint is that if I followed your argument to absurdity, then I would also have to conclude that if I am conscious, then you can't be, because the atoms of our brains aren't arranged in precisely the same way. It clearly makes more sense from a monist point of view to consider consciousness an emergent property of complex systems, rather than one particular process.
The answer to that question is pretty obvious - most people prefer a firm billion dollars now over the possibility of 100 billion in two decades, especially if they're not independently wealthy already.

The FTC can't do anything about human nature, so they're left dealing with the part of the problem they do have some leverage over.
I'd be unable to sleep worrying about whether one of my - should really be a +, or whether I stumbled on one step of "index gymnastics".

Or I'd be wondering if someone would ever spot the deliberate <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beatosu_and_Goblu> trick of changing a single \mathrm{B} into a \mathfrak{B}.

Or both.

However, the authors are in close communication with many of the other authors in their extensive bibliography whose work this follows (and in turn who likely be provoked into further work). The progress (seen in the paper's review-like parts and the bibliography) has been towards proving that less and less "gentle" vacuum spacetimes aren't irrevocably upset by gravitational waves passing through them. The bibliography cites a number of pre-pandemic preprints that were in "to appear in <journal>" state. In that sort of academic bubble, which is far from unusual, errors are liable to be found fairly quickly. Also I would guess that the authors revisited their self-cited previous work, which sometimes produces forehead-smacking.
Similarly I would doubt that anyone actually thinks that the past was good simply because it came before the present. The desire to return to "the way things were" is born of a critique of specific aspects of "the way things are", combined with a sense that tradition is likely to embody hard-earned wisdom that may not be immediately apparent or perfectly defensible by abstract argument.

they work locally(local network via app or physical buttons) unless you want to use it remotely via internet. The annoying thing is that it still forces you to "create an account" when you set it up. This was not required 4 years ago but it's required now.

From the article:

I'm not sure what problems you're referring to. What I'm getting from the article is that there are good and bad years for the reef, and at present there is no evidence of long term decline or some kind of permanent destruction.
I disagree. Buying Dell and Samsung laptop in that price range I'd say it is an overpriced rubbish if you compare to current Apple produce.
There is really no comparison when it comes to build quality and performance.

I can tell you right frigging now, the average person is trained through education to build up confidence they know what they are doing, then over the next decade plus face-checked against reality to build an aversion/paranoia matrix.

The modern world is essentially orchestrated by people who build self-sustaining support structures of specialists. We've done a great job at building co-dependent specialists, but a terrible one at building generalists.
As much as I would trust the router os to separate and route traffic across ports. or perhaps you mean the switch. in which case I would probably spot check ports to make sure the switch firmware was not doing something weird, but in general yes, vlans are well specified and commonly used and I would mostly trust the switch vendor to handle them is the specified manner.
Another interesting point is - does the smartphone experience translate to the laptops. We usually open the phone tens of times a day. The laptop screen will get much less movement.
It sounds reasonable for non residents. But as someone paying taxes in France I would be royally pissed if this applied to me.

Look, I hope as much as the next guy that a competitor emerges with a better offering, against all odds beats the incumbent, and unlike the last 5 times this happened does not follow the market incentive to become evil, but hope is not a strategy.

Great, now fix "Phrase Match" on Google Ads. Google is constantly pushing Broad Match, to the point where they loosen the definition of phrase match to include synonyms. If I want Broad Match, I'll use it but please let me use Phrase Match as it's intended. Match the phrase exactly, if not don't show my ads.

Quality of search still has some improvements open. Searching right now with quotes for the title of this HN post:

"We're improving search results when you use quotes"

The first three results are interesting:

1- First result is the Google announcement but not this post. The title is
"How we're improving search results when you use quotes"
not "We're improving search results when you use quotes"
and the search was with quotes, but to be accepted, maybe...

2- Second result is this post

3- Third result is a quackery page made by some SEO spammers. Now what is interesting is that is almost a copy-paste of Google with changes like this:

Google announcement text:

"...We’ve heard feedback that people doing quoted searches value seeing where the quoted material occurs on a page, rather than an overall description of the page. Our improvement is designed to help address this...."

SEO Spammers write on page ( with enhancement misspelled):

"...We’ve heard suggestions that folks doing quoted searches worth seeing the place the quoted materials happens on a web page, somewhat than an total description of the web page. Our enchancment is designed to assist handle this..."

And the page becomes the third link from Google results...

I was actually born in Poland and spent the first half of my childhood on the outskirts of a mid sized town, 2 blocks from a huge forrest, and enjoyed it a ton, as a 10 year old I was able to walk or bike to any corner of the town on my own.

I'm not being condescending about living in suburbs or rural areas, just the design of a large portion of car dominated suburban areas of the US. As an example, I just got back from Pittsburgh, where I was staying in an AirBnB that was only 2 miles north of the city. I was really excited to explore Pittsburgh and was hoping to bike or walk down to the city after work but it would have been a 50min walk down a narrow road that's dominated by F150s and mini vans, something that even as an adult I didn't feel safe doing. I got to see a large portion of the northern suburbs of Pittsburgh and most of it looked like that, as I was driving through it it hit me that there are no kids out even though it's the middle of Summer, the only place we saw any was at shopping malls with their parents.

NYC is not a soul crushing place full of condescending people if step outside of the touristy areas of Manhattan. I grew up in Queens (Ridgewood / Kew Gardens Hills) and lived in Harlem and northern Brooklyn as an adult, all of which are some of the most diverse zip codes of the world with a ton of friendly middle class people. As a teenager I was able to bike or take the train to any basketball court in the city, say hi and play with people from all over the world. These days with all of the bike lanes that they added I can bike to almost anywhere in the city in under 30min and it's my main mode of transportation.

This is being dictated by companies who don’t quite have their own compass and seem to follow whatever X CEO(s) are doing. The fact that majority of these startups were dumb enough to ramp up growth with everyone locked in to only consume shows how much business just seem like going through the motions than actually knowing their business, knowing the market, and properly navigating. Then again they’re all pleasing investors more than creating a sustainable (not always necessarily “record” profitable) businesses.
If what you said was true, then no one would have any privacy at all.

But yet certain people have seemingly perfect privacy, like Satoshi Nakamoto and Jeffrey Epstein's employers. How?

I now realize a lot of people on HN are hard liners when it comes to privacy and think there's only absolute privacy and no privacy.

I think you all forget that not all information is the same. You can keep private channels open "just in case" while using public ones.

You can also enhance your privacy to a degree better than most people with simple, easy-to-do steps.

Anyway, the "all or nothing" mindset is detrimental to your cause and makes the average person feel like it's not worth it.
No. Anyone can link into the app store with an ad from any provider, and this still happens today.
This is ads inside apple’s own app store.
The same way that I can’t use anyone else to place an ad in youtube.
Your argument is utterly farcical.
That "history lesson" is misleading.

Aquitaine was, by marriage, property of the King of England for a three-hundred-years period. That territory was still however subject to feudal homage to the King of France, and not "part of the Kingdom of England".

There is no insurance company that will insure you on doing that. Unless I don't know something - for which I would be glad to hear back that I am wrong.

Any travel insurance I have seen always excluded all kinds of sports which is also mountain climbing. They exclude everything that requires specialistic gear.

I also work in insurance industry as a software dev - nothing that I have seen would let insure someone who would go under-prepared. One could fill in form that he goes fully prepared but once lied insurance company won't pay anything.

Basically they will sell you insurance if you are fully prepared and basically you don't have any chance of claiming insurance.
libmad "tutorial". The + does nothing.
Out of curiosity: Why?

Again, the + symbol isn't a command and does nothing. If you searched for [libmad +tutorial] we saw that as as search for pages with both or either of two words, libmad OR +tutorial, plus any related words or synonyms, like tutorial.

So with that search, we're trying to show you things we think are relevant, and there aren't a lot of pages relevant with the word +tutorial on them. Tutorial, yes -- but not +tutorial.

In this case, what you really want is this: [libmad "tutorial"] -- that says get pages that have both words or words related to libmad but ONLY pages that actually have the word tutorial on them.

>I'm in Europe...

Then how do your kids communicate with those who only have android devices? That's a big social issue among teens in the US.

iMessage is never popular in Europe, as everyone here uses cross platform apps like Whatsapp, Telegram, Snapchat, etc. due to the lower market share of IOS vs Andorid.

Your case seems like an outlier.

I hate using checks. I have little trust in a flimsy piece of paper that you often have to mail to be the method of transaction.

It boggles my mind how checks are still so prevalent. When we have tools like Venmo, Zelle, ACH Transfers, Apple Pay etc.

The few times I've had to use a check (and a cashiers check at that) its been to sign a new lease on an apartment and it is one of the most nerve-racking days I have.

I would absolutely prefer to transact exclusively through digital transfers of any kind.
I know there were a lot of simple vac only bots in the roborock line up. S5 and similar the mopping funciton is a small pad that you manually wet and it drags along behind. It kind of sucks but if you were in the market for just a vacuum, you remove the bracket and it's fine. The robot has no knowledge of the mop as there isn't a tank.

The S6Max that has a tank, you can also remove (easily, two button clips) and it'll not attempt any mopping feature. It also supposedly doesn't squirt water on to the pad when it knows its on carpet, but at some stage you may be dragging a mildly damp cloth on to the carpet. (was never an issue for me, the pad was never that wet that you could reasonably detect it on the carpet)

Overall mopping with drag-behind pads is pretty... opportunistic? Its not great and you'll be in a position where you have to manually mop. Many models are switching to the spinning buffer pads which is a much better solution (that's the Dreame W10) but it refuses to do carpet. So its always a matter of finding a model that fits your use case.

>That means I would need two vacuums anyway as they haven’t learned yet to climb stairs.

Many allow for multi floor mapping on a single bot, but stairs will always be a problem for the Daleks. :P

Notice:

Last year I made it public and due to lack of my marketing skill there was no traction and I shut it down.

This week someone on Twitter was asking the exact same service and I decide to re-deploy the service. I submitted here because I want to see if anyone like them are planning to use it.

What I observed is people don't want to use these as the paid service. So today I shut it down again and will publish as the open source project.

https://github.com/blogstreak will be the new place.

Thanks for understanding. Cheers.
Everyone always talks about what people in the suburbs want as if urban life is so terrible and suburban life is amazing. I’m not a huge fan of the suburbs as positives are few and far between. I choose to live in one because finding a great school in the core of the city is next to impossible and when it occurs it’s next to $5 million dinky bungalows because the land prices are insane. I’d be thrilled to own a decent 3 bedroom condo in a good school district but under 10% of condos are 3BR and almost all condo buildings aren’t sending their population to good schools.
While I can relate to the author, I also agree with this.

As much as I'd like to remember in the moment that riding my bike or some creative project is fun, and get excited to get up and at it ... I don't.

In my better times, discipline has worked like a starter motor, getting me over that initial resistance in a way that no conscious thought really could.

If you want the old, good, Google back: Turn on Verbatim Mode.

Instead of Google throwing away 90% of your search query and looking for the "top hits" (and returning almost entirely auto-generated pages), it keeps every word you entered and returns actually relevant stuff.

Using BSD licensed code in a GPL program
Hi!

I need to borrow a structure and an array definition from mount.c (https://github.com/openbsd/src/blob/27d3e8ada1f03120e88616f430372e9617e250b1/sbin/mount/mount.c#L74).

Do I need to include BSD license header and The Regents of the University of California copyright somewhere? If yes, how should I do this given that the rest of the code in the modified file is GPL.

Or is it better to rewrite it?
It doesn't cost that much. The land costs a lot, and permits can cost a lot. The labor isn't that much, and materials are cheaper than ever (though most houses in the past were built with free labor with material prepared on site and so you don't realize how much it costs as nobody was getting paid)
"Well, the key to life is that we also need to do things that we find "boring", and that no amount of sugar-coating would make them appear fun to us."
Sounds like a mother that doesn't want to argue about clearing the dish washer.
The key thing is to learn that all boring things should and can have a playful funny side and if you can't find them than you must make yourself one.
So clearing the dishwasher can be playful with dancing and singing or as a game. That's why google gamified the boring crowd source activity of repairing the local search.
The key is to cheat yourself a little bit.
I hate notifications and talking on the phone, and after years I developed a pavlov reaction to it whenever my phone vibrates or makes a sound so I keep that at a minimum for important notifications, I used to love the samsung notification led but the iphone doesn't have that, so having a haptic feedback whenever I want to move the cursor (which is lots of times) makes me cringe.
