Calendar sorta works -- the meetings yes, but things like suggesting a new time or co-viewing calendars to find a time don't.
Yes, originally CGA and MDA at the same time. Hercules was a non-IBM standard, based on MDA. Hercules has 64k of memory, where 32k is in the area of MDA, and the second 32k overlaps with the CGA area. You could disable the second 32k when you had a CGA card in your system.
EGA and VGA were also made backwards compatible, and could co-exist with an MDA or Hercules card.

The demo Stars by NoooN (https://www.pouet.net/prod.php?which=301) has an easter egg for a combination of VGA and MDA/Hercules: on the monochrome screen, a Snake game appears, which can be played via keyboard while the demo is running.
While the app was rubbish, it did stir up some interesting questions.

I do wonder about where the biggest critics of it are now? There was the whole issue of slowly taking peoples rights with the assumption that they would never come back - and yet all of them where returned in good time - even if a little early on some.

This cannot be serious and no person would risk their child to test such an unproven safety critical system. If it is serious, then it proves the Tesla FSD (Fools Self Driving) delusion is real.

Definitely is a translation of the above tweets and FSD in general as: 'Some of you may die, but it's a sacrifice I am willing to make.'

We have already seen the results [0] after months of updates and promises by Elon, and the many close calls and accidents with FSD, yet we still have some of the Tesla FSD crash dummies who want to recruit John and Jane Doe's children as crash dummies.

It is unsafe, doesn't work in both day and night and it puts many drivers on the road at risk; as well as pedestrians as well; which explains the many investigations.

The default chat app and the technical merit dosn't matter. What matters is what people we want to chat with. Most of my friends and groups are on WhatsApp. Some prefer to use Telegram, me too. A very few living outside the country use FB Messenger. Nobody use SMS unless for emergencies, if they think the recipient has no data connection. RCS is totally unknown. If I say RCS somebody will ask me "the newspaper company?"

Making people switch is possible (use Telegram to chat with me), making a group switch is impossible as there is always at least one person that doesn't want to install a new app or can't (phones with tiny storage.) Anything else is irrilevant in my country. There are probably some friends of mine using iMessage when chatting with somebody they know to have an iPhone. They still to have to use WhatsApp to chat with everybody else.

Because I have seen so many laypeople operate off the misconstrued idea that computers literally work like that!

Granted, many of these people have been around since before typewriters and phones were a common thing, but the ”1s and 0s” explanation does not offer anything tangible for people who cannot see the trees from the forest (sic), and thus it only widens the ”digital divide”.
It'd probably consume less power, and as you'd have to leave this on 24/7, that is worth considering.
Incel terminology is so horrible to try and explain. But yeah, for anyone confused, basically any word can be affixed with -cel (from celibate) and it “works” — e.g., numbercel, wordcel, gymcel, heightcel, narutocel, ycombinatorcel, etc.

Typically these would’ve been used by the incel community to describe why someone is an incel (e.g., “heightcels” supposedly being too short to be attractive and so on). Now, I see the terms being used not only unironically by actual incels but also ironically, usually on the fairly leftist/chapotraphouse-adjacent parts of twitter and such.

But even race conditions are well-defined in Java: you can’t get so called out-of-thin-air values. Some updates may not be visible from another thread, and of course dead/live locks are on the table (but they are everywhere, even the actor model doesn’t solve those).

Obese patients ‘being weight-shamed by doctors and nurses’
Reading your message brought flashbacks of 2006, when C and C++ programmers were politely but passionately explaining to Java programmers why the Java ecosystem was a hopeless pile of bloat.

I would have thought that in 2022 the failure of Java to conquer any kind of market on the most popular platforms and 2nd most popular or any kind of popular plus the rise of languages like Swift, Go or Rust would have made that point perfectly if not painfully clear. Even in Android, Java’s big success story, both the VM and the language were either outright replaced or made legacy.

I suppose it’s a matter of perspective, but I like to think of the server not as Java’s last kingdom, but more as Java’s last refuge before being finally banished.

Note that I don’t dislike Java. I’ve used it successfully on Android and it helped us achieve our goals of writing a passably performant application. Neither do I think it’s a bad technology, like many would argue. It is very uninspiring and bureaucratic though…

> The primary focus of the creation of Tornado Cash was to facilitate money laundering

This is a GIGANTIC claim that you're going to have to evidence. Alexey Pertsev, Roman Semenov, and Roman Storm all studied STEM subjects at university, spent years working as pentesters, QAs, SWEs etc, as some sort of long-con to create a money laundering platform? What a totally absurd thing to say, and is quite frankly insulting to the entirety of this site.

That was how the predecessor 8088 MPH worked.
Area 5150 however is aimed at a TTL RGBI monitor, and as such, does not use NTSC composite artifacting. It can only display 16 colours at once. So in this demo, you get 640x200 in 16 colours, where additional colours are implied by using dither patterns.
(Technically 8088 MPH did more or less the same, except these 'dither patterns' would result in NTSC artifact colours).

Why do you want this app you are building to be cross-platform?

You've shared technical requirements, but you haven't shared business requirements. You should ask yourself whether you can actually achieve your business / user ends with a cross-platform approach. The three platforms are unique and users across the three have different expectations. For example as a Mac user, unless the software is super specialized such that there isn't any competition, a native Mac-focused solution will always be preferable to something that "kinda sorta" looks and acts like Mac software.

Without knowing the purpose of the software you are building, one has to really wonder if it needs to be native or should rather be a web app (for example), or even mobile first or tablet preferred.

Just some thoughts.
> Like what? What could be easier than going to AWS, click a few things to spin up a Postgres instance, click a few more things to scale automatically without downtime, create read replicas, have automatic backups, one-click restore?

Not do that and not have to maintain that? Just a regular AWS instance with SQLite will be far easier to setup, with regular filesystem backup which is easier to manage and restore.

> Trying to put SQLite on a VM via Kubernetes will likely have a lot of secondary decisions that will make "scaling to millions" far harder and more expensive.

The issue is assuming that "scaling to millions" is a design goal from the start. For a lot of projects, the best-case-scenario does not require it. For another big set of them, they will never get to it. For the few that do, it's possible that the cost of maintaining the more complex solution while it isn't needed plus the cost of adapting over time (because, let's be honest, it's almost impossible to get the scaling solution right from the start) is more than the cost of just implementing the complex solution when it's actually needed.

Don't most cars with GPS already do this?

Our EV likes to suggest a route that takes 33 minutes instead of 28, but uses 30% less electricity (and avoids rush hour backups, as a bonus). It's using HERE WeGo maps, from what I can tell. (They're underrated in my opinion. They're formerly known as Nokia Maps; it was the default on windows phone, still is free phones, and still works offline.)

"Eco friendly" is a function of the car's aerodynamics, weight, regenerative breaking, auto shutoff at traffic lights, etc, etc. It seems better left to the manufacturer to set those parameters.

I'm personally ashamed that auto manufacturers are destroying the environment and making life difficult for all electronics manufacturers because they want to embed literally hundreds of micro-controllers into cars, just so that they can make it break when one single component fails.

Leo Fender and the Fender company gets the credit for making the first successful solid body guitar - the Telecaster.

The common wisdom is the Stratocaster was the successor to the Telecaster - but in my opinion, I think the Telecaster is the superior guitar. The simplicity makes it indestructible, the string through fixed bridge makes more stable in tuning. It allows one to easily use alternate tunings as the Stratocaster whammy would be complete useless in this scenario.

Just take a look at all of the guitars players over the last 15 years or so have re-discovered the Telecaster. Not to mention punk, heavy metal and even thrash meal guitarists are picking them up. The running joke is that Jimmy Page sold more Les Pauls then anyone else playing Telecasters :)

Check out this video that compares the tone of Telecaster vs Les Paul:

>I am really not an back-to-the-trees kind of guy, but knowing rough and wild nature life and knowing and seeing the systematic suffering in our modern meatfactories (whether for humans or pigs) I remain very sceptical that everything is so much better now, than how it used to be.

Yes, unequivocally, and by every real measure life is better now than it has ever been for more people than ever before. You claim to "know rough and wild nature life" but how do you propose forcing it upon 8 billion human beings with your self indulgent logic? Nothing stops you from living this supposed rough life consistently, yet here you are regularly commenting on HN, participating in tech industries and contributing to the use of a wast, worldwide high technology infrastructure that extracts resources from the Earth to sustain itself. It's not just meat farms that contribute to massive natural resource use.

The aside about antidepressant use as an argument against the previous claim about improved living standards is just bizarre, because for one thing it does the opposite of negate a claim of improved conditions for people and secondly, it's such a minor thing relative to billions of people living longer, better, more calorically and medically stable lives than has ever been the case in any previous century.

SQLite backups aren't quite that easy.

Grabbing a copy of the file won't necessarily work: you need at atomic snapshot. You can create those using the backup API or by using VACUUM INTO, but in both cases you'll need enough spare disk space to create a fresh copy of your database.

I'm having great results from Litestream streaming to S3, so that's definitely a good option here.
But why? Ok, no foreign key checking, so it’s fast, great. Why not include the foreign ID in the local table? What’s the purpose behind a global “relationships” table?
What made my implementation disastrous turned out to be that there was no enforcement of string encodings, and users started to see all kinds of garbled text.
I did a comparison of Julia vs numpy, cython and pythran [1] some time ago, for a typical dsp routine we use in our work, and Julia was quite a bit slower than the alternatives. Now I'm by no means a Julia expert so I might have missed an optimisation opportunity (although I posted this and nobody could point to something obvious) , however the whole advertisement behind Julia is that one gets essentially C speed with the ease of Python. That's actually my main gripe with Julia, the community advertises it as something that it isn't. I think otherwise some really cool stuff is happening in Julia Land.

How to choose the right Python concurrency API
> I can send text, photos, etc. and it works.

Only if "low quality blurry images and video" is your definition of "it works". Or maybe you've just never checked what the image actually looks like on the receiving phone.
This would have happened after I left, so I'm just speculating based on experience.

1. You create a function in your application that maps a customer id to a database server. There is only one at first.

2. You setup replication to another server.

3. You update your application's mapping function to map about half of your ids to the new replica. Use something like md5(customer id) % 2. Using md5 or something else that has a good random distribution is important (sha-x DOES NOT have a good random distribution).

4. You application now will write to the replica, turn off replication, and delete the ids from each server that no longer map to that server.

Adding a new server follows approximately the same lines, except you need to rebalance your keys which can be tricky.
This is the reason why a lot of countries will elect the mayor or governor of some part of the country. Having successfully administered a smaller part of the country is probably the best predictor we have for being able to administer a larger part.

Yes, tulir works for beeper. But I think they stopped doing that iPhone thing, and if you use iOS there are less features available: https://github.com/mautrix/imessage/blob/master/ROADMAP.md . A Mac with SIP disabled is now the recommended method (apparently this can be a VM too!)

That iPhone thing was something they did in the beginning, before they used the name Beeper, I forget the name they used.

I like the idea of Beeper but self-hosting is important to me, so I use the ansible playbook instead. For hosted services there's also Element One by the way, though that doesn't include the iMessage bridge.
I assume that iplocation.io works with usable resolution only in a few countries, if in any.

If I open that page, I see 4 sources.

3 of the 4 sources provide the correct European country where I am located.

2 of the 4 sources show correctly the European city with millions of inhabitants where I am located.

Only 1 source shows beyond the correct city a postal code, but that is not mine, it is a postal code for some building of my ISP, very far from me, in a completely different part of the city.

So not even the country is provided with 100% certainty, much less the location within the city, which is provided correctly by no source.

And I have owned that IP for 20 years, it is not a dynamically allocated IP.
If one considers applications as GUI programs running on consumer hardware like desktops, laptops or smartphones Java is in reality not at all great at this task. It’s better than Rust sure, but definitely worse than C++, C#, Swift or Objective-C which have access to the native UI frameworks of their respective platforms.

I’ve had the opportunity to observe Java’s floundering in this area for a couple of decades now and the only decent Java application that I can tolerate is an IDE from Jetbrains. I’m not happy with the performance or UI, but the alternatives are often worse, because in an unexpected twist they’re written in JavaScript.

Solidarity in Poland, supported with plausible deniability at arms length by the CIA.

Solidarity was a Polish labour union that grew massively in size from its foundation in 1980 to evolve into a civil resistance social movement using non-violent means to achieve change.

In 9 years Solidarity went from inception to leading Poland’s post-totalitarian communist pivot towards democracy.

In a program called QRHELPFUL, CIA provided cash as well as communicatio/distribution equipment via 3rd party cutouts to prevent the Soviet KGB and Polish UB/SB from portraying Solidarity as a western puppet.

It was incredibly successful, but it would best be described as providing a bit of tailwind to existing organic momentum.

CIA didn’t create Solidarity, they simply backed the right player in a non-kinetic way that has had lasting impact.

Poland’s post-communism pivot initially led by a Solidarity coalition government would be considered a considerable success for the people of Poland in terms of economic value creation and political freedom.

Where is that in the essay? It’s almost entirely not about compilation. I am still a bit confused about your original comment, the reason I asked for clarification was to see how it relates to the points the essay makes, and I still don’t see it. The main points the essay makes about compilation is that undefined behavior was accidental and contrary to the most honest view of C (obviously, the one the author has). And then the complexity comes not from the compiler’s procedures for optimizing code, but rather the inane language semantics the committee has adopted, that permits them to be lenient with how they map C.

I suspect the ocaml compiler qualifies for your usage, to add a much different language to your corpus.
