> being flexible in what you accept when possible

I disagree with this. When working with rxjs I wanted to emit a single string in an error handler. Since strings are iterable I ended up with the characters being emitted.

The library authors added this "flexibility" (implicit conversion from values to observables) which caused a subtle bug that took me a while to figure out. A type error (expected observable, got string) would have prevented this.
Let’s not forget that all of this only applies if you’re of the “right” religion. There’s a thick glass ceiling in vast majority of Indian professional world if your name sounds a certain way, no matter how good you might be. We like to ignore this facet but on the ground level, this is the obvious reality. Around election time one has to worry whether their family member who has gone out for an errand will return in one piece. Yes I know you might’ve not have to worry about this particular aspect (HN crowd is generally a lot more privileged), but it’s the ground reality for a large number of people. Families will literally take out loans against their entire sum of generational wealth for a mere chance to leave India, that takes pretty strong push factors than just “status” within community. In summary, outside a handful of big cities, and if you belong to the “right” religion, life is incredibly rough for the majority. There is simply no comparison when choosing to plant one’s roots in India vs a western country. It’s great to visit, but not to build a family life. Yet.
Try this command: nslookup DOMAIN 212.230.255.1

That is a random public DNS server I found on a DNS checker site that works (as it seems to be down from all the common ones like 8.8.8.8, 1.1.1.1, etc). DOMAIN can be your actual domain or the long heroku alias.
good to know it's friendly to sailfish
Woot! Thank you - that seems to work, just used the first IP that came up on ST (there were 4 listed).
You can also just put a filter on the lens that cuts out light.

for someone out there, "Uncanny valley porn" is their kink.
Safe in that there's a good chance that everyone has an answer for the question. It's the same thing like asking about the weather: it's easy to observe and most people will have some kind of, even minor, opinion about it. It's called "small talk" for a reason and is meant as a conversation starter and/or to avoid the awkward just-staring-at-each-other moments. Even a tiny human connection is still a connection.
Anybody know what the risks are for doing this? We have not one but 13 heroku domains running where we might do this.

What are the chances that their current work on the DNS issues might replace the underlying IP-addresses and hence we are making it harder on ourselves?
This worked for us, thank you.

And for those using Cloudflare, this method works.
Or just use Aurora store!

You dont have this problem because CalyxOS has a workaround for SafetyNet, i hear its pretty hacky, but it works.
Only tangentially related but I think about "choices are votes" frequently when choosing where to spend money.

Every dollar spent at a business is a vote for that business to continue existing.

This framing pushes me to support more local businesses, even if it's a couple $ extra. Same with attending the local events that you want your community to continue offering.
> Eating carnivores is not a good idea because they have higher concentrations of poison etc.

Presumably you would control their diet to avoid food chain toxin accumulation if you were to farm them. Tuna is carnivorous but that doesn't stop us from farming it much less catching it in the wild.

I would wager dog meat/slaughter is almost exclusively banned in the places it's banned due to cultural "ick" factors and nothing more.
This is better actually. You want to have as little blown out as possible because you can always crank up shadows in post. Whereas if you overexpose the sky for example, there is no information there for you to pull down because its been blown out.
I don't think this matches standard wisdoms.

Culturally, 'Western Europe + USA' are more similar to each other than Indian sub-cultures among themselves. In most cases you are interacting with other white people coming from christian cultures. Even the People-of-Color that white people do date tend to be deeply integrated into western culture to the point where they're more culturally white than Indian.

In terms of cultural exchange, most of the effort to integrate is being put in by the Indian. (replace Indian with any non-western cultural group). The extent to which the cultural exchange is unidirectional isn't even funny.

There isn't a lot of great data on this, but limited dating data tells us that it is actually white people (esp men) who have strong intra-race-dating preferences as compared to Asians or Latinos. [1] [2 Table 3]

I just checked, and the only telemetry setting that I have in my VS code config is `"telemetry.telemetryLevel": "off"`. I have the non-free version installed (i.e. not Codium). I installed OpenSnitch and started running it, and it caught a grand total of 7 requests over a few minutes of coding: 2 to marketplace.visualstudio.com (one to port 443 and one to 52), presumably which occurred during startup to check for updates to my extensions, and then 5 to a subdomain of vo.msecnd.net (split across ports 443 and 53). I hadn't heard of this domain before, but from a quick google, I found it listed in the VS Code documentation as their CDN (https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/setup/network). Overall, this seems...not that crazy? I'm not sure if they just are less egregious on Linux machines or if the CDN is just where they send the analytics to, but it doesn't really seem like much sketchy stuff was happening behind my bacl.
My guess is that it's now approved for obesity, a lot of drug plans in USA approve of it and that's led to a supply issue: https://www.novonordisk-us.com/products/product-supply-updat...

I wonder if metformin does the same thing, but the patent fell off too soon, so there just wasn't much marketing for its benefits to decision-makers.

metformin for 26 weeks lead to a net 6.6kg weight loss in non-diabetic obese patients (I would've preferred BMI reduction as the outcome measure, and a placebo-control arm, but can't have it all):

Thanks so much, worked for us as well. I created A records for all three of the listed IP addresses but it started working for the first one already.
Please check out withcoherence.com (I'm a cofounder). We manage the nuts and bolts of apps using ECS/fargate on AWS and Cloud Run/GKE on GCP. We also integrate managed cloud IDEs and managed CI/CD pipelines using the same simple configuration, and put a dashboard on top of it!

I suspect both AWS and Verizon fall into that category.
Thanks, for some reason this worked!
Oh my god, thank you so much. You're a lifesaver.

For those on Cloudflare, this will still work. I just deleted the existing CNAME, added the 4 IP addresses as seperate A records and it came back up instantly.

hahaha. I can see a future of unsolicited non-existent dick pics being sent to people.

As a dyslexic person, syntax highlighting is amazing. I don’t care that the highlights are 100% correct or even useful for understanding what the code does.
What I care about is that it breaks up the characters with something other than more characters. It helps keep my eyes looking at the “important” places in the code, or close to it. The shape of the code is important and highlighted code just “looks” a bit more correct.

Keep in mind, I’m no novice. So, my opinion is absolutely unrelated to the article… so it is on HN.
If memory serves me right, one of the biggest selling points for IPv6 to end users (at the time) was it's "built in" support for IPsec (ESP and AH are standard extensions in the protocol). These days I'm not sure how beneficial something like this would be, Wireguard outperforms it AFAIK.
> Moreover, we did not find any 240/4 prefix in the official prefix list shared by Amazon

Yeah, so about that:

https://github.com/seligman/aws-ip-ranges/commit/2e0d9d87d4f...

They did briefly list 252.0.0.0/10 in their published list of IP ranges. The people I spoke with about this at the time either claimed it was a mistake, or the state of the world that I should get used to (it broke some surprisingly fragile scripts on my side for silly reasons).

Given they removed it from their list of IPs 27 hours later, I'm guessing I wasn't the only person freaking out. But yeah, they use it internally, and it leaks from time to time in surprising ways.
It's also as simple as paying the appropriate fees for including this transaction... everyone has a price, even (especially) miners.
Yes. But the gamer niche is just that. A niche. A toe hold. A position every up and coming brand / product dreams about. They can extend out from there.

MS on the other hand, drank its own Kool Aid, threw it's weight around, went all in...and walked away empty handed. There was little value add. There was zero coolness. Etc.

There are some similarities but that was then, this is now. A device that's "proven" - and some privacy tossed in - can probably find a market just beyond the gaming niche.

In mathematics we're currently living through what is from one vantage a dark age that started when Spaniards arrived in Yucatán. So stuff they had was just...but it's cool I managed to salvage some. It actually works out great in digital circuits, uses the exact same number of transistors as current stuff but better answers. Well however it is wildly incompatible with the current way things are done and can literally induce brain pain or headaches or confusion when explained. Only time I felt pain from thought. And it screwes up mathematical ability for hours.
Yeah I’m not sure the “just” is justified, and it’s not good but it’s certainly different than being able to send tweets as a particular user. IPMI access was typically only given to SREs.

I was there and I did feel shame, but what can really be done? While I agree in spirit, I have to believe the problem is more complicated than "apply money."

Depression, drugs, debt/money based homelessness, abuse derived homelessness, and psychosis are probably a subset of archetypes each with very different solutions. Chronic vs Temporary homelessness are probably entirely different problems, and my understanding is Chronic homelessess surprisingly isn't the main problem in SF. Then you have the questions of creating an institution of some sort to deal with it, which involves staffing it and fighting corruption within it. Then you have the NIMBY's. Then there are DA's willing to tolerate entirely unacceptable behavior. Historic abuses of vulnerable people in homeless addressing systems. Historic underfunding, understaffing, and lack of safety policy for workers in that area. Homeless immigration. We don't like to be around homeless people, but homeless people don't like to be around other homeless people either which makes scalable solutions harder. Then there are entire policies around requiring homeless to "make progress" or not use drugs or other things like that which has shown to fail. Then it's downright unamerican (not to me) to have the government do something rather than contract out to businesses. Then there is how the tax burden falls. Does San Jose pay into SF's homelessness fund? How do you design and execute outreach or policy or funnel people into your "remedy"?

American culture is biased towards "if you don't help yourself, then you don't deserve help." There are probably a significant number of people who need help adopt that mindset and don't believe they deserve help themselves. How do you make cultural progress? Do we even have any idea how many people are homeless and trying vs homeless and hopeless?

So funding, employment, research, policy, culture, laws, and a potential "homeless industry," all have elements that need to be addressed.

Then there are the straight alignment problems: Who wants to work on that problem when they could be studying engineering and making the big bucks? Who wants to get payed government wages for low reward probably unsafe jobs that probably suck?

Where would the ambition to solve, not hide, the problem come from?

Google "why is homelessness still a problem in San Francisco." There isn't even any kind of consensus on where the root of the problem is. There's not even an authoritative or high quality source or organization explaining the problem or explaining policy in the results, it's all news which is beholden to engagement, not problem solving.
It's not just one gov't, it's Five Eyes. I guess if you're uncomfortable extrapolating from there, that's your business.

This is kinda getting away from sunny 16, but with digital cameras in daylight, I find it better to not expose for the scene, but to expose for the brightest thing on the scene: the sky. That will leave you with a camera image of a well exposed sky and puffy clounds, and a dim foreground or subject perhaps, but thats a non issue. You just shot in daylight at probably iso 200, that means you can import that raw file into Lightroom, and pull up the shadows and have that dim part of the image look fine, while preserving the sky.

If you expose for the scene, you are probably going to blow out the sky. Once its overexposed like this, you can't just crank down the highlights in lightroom. The sensor just reads pure white light in this region; there isn't any information there like in the shadows.

This is kinda the opposite to how you'd expose with a film camera. For film, its better to expose for the shadows. Too much light hitting the film emulsion doesn't matter, you can fix that when you image your prints by using less light, no information is lost with overexposed film (unless its REALLY overexposed e.g. opening the film door). If you underexpose something severely, then information is lost because not enough light hit the film emulsion to impart an image.
Also Washington DC. I love my city, but it's not a great place to be a car.
I thought about this, and it can't really get any worse than 'total outage', so I thought it was worth taking a shot. It can't go any more down.

It worked for me, so once Heroku has sorted their s*t out and their DNS system is back up it's just a matter of deleting the A records and replacing it with the CName.

Worst case scenario is the underlying Amazon IP Addresses change and it goes back down.
Worked for me as well! Thank you!
I’m disappointed at Microsoft and GitHub as the next person but open source happens on GitHub. Period. I have a GitLab account with some code there but unless there’s a huge shift, I’m not gonna be contributing to OSS on GitLab. It’s just a hassle to remember where everything is.
Worked for us on Cloudflare
Will it bring its own surgical linen, or is there some DARPA-funded cutting-edge laundry detergent research for after the procedure?
We use cloudflare. If you look up the IP address for your public domain name, you will get the cloudflare IP, yes. If you lookup the IP address of the CNAME target, you will get the heroku IP.

Having skimmed that section, it hurts, not helps Musk. It's basically complaining that Twitter is prioritizing accurate, quantifiable metrics that directly impact finances over woolly, unquantifiable "platform health." Worse, executives are motivated to be honest about their metrics!

He's complaining that Twitter isn't measuring what he wants it to measure, which doesn't help, because it isn't saying that Twitter is actually lying about its metrics (and, as noted, it's indirectly implying that Twitter isn't lying).

> A) Finland and Sweden havent yet joined and may not

After Russias constant rhetoric that Ukraine is only the first country on their “let’s genocide post soviet states” list their is 0 doubt that Finland and Sweden will finish the application.

> B) There are no ethnic Russians in Finland or Sweden in need of protection from paramilitaries sporting swastika tattoos.

The largest group of paramilitaries sporting swastikas and killing Russians in Ukraine is Russians from the neo nazi Wagner group so ironically if Russia left Ukraine there’d be less Russian deaths by (Russian) Nazis.

> C) No border disputes either.

Wasn’t any border disputes with Ukraine until they discovered vast natural resources in the Donbas region that would threaten Russia as a gas and oil provider to Europe. Then suddenly there were all kinds of problems then appeared over night and people who suspiciously looked like FSB and GRU officers started a civil war in Ukraine.

> E) It's highly defensible terrain (see the winter war) unlike Ukraine.

Either Ukraine is very defensible or Russia is terrible at war the losses so far have been staggering.
As a young kid in 1982 I thought those graphics were stunning, at least compared to text based games I'd been playing.

For the future I personally think it really depends on if mainstream AR/VR will get traction or not, and there are so many challenges for that. Flight sims (and combat, driving games etc) are a great but very small niche of whales that benefits from the tech, but it needs a bigger consumer base than that to push it forward. AR is a better bet I think, and I could picture flight sim's using that well. I currently use either a VR controller in a 3D space or a mouse to flick switches in the virtual cockpit, but mixing real-world and the sim would take it up a notch - especially if haptic.

Graphically VR is still pretty awkward for this sort of thing, as even though 3164x3096 per eye the clarity struggles for real-world simulation like this (lots of detail in a cockpit). We need variable focus depth, higher refresh rates and better (non-fresnel) lenses tech. Meta/Apple/Valve hint at it, and Varjo has some good new things, but it's a race condition between having a monster PC to drive it = niche market vs stand-alone AR/VR for consumer adoption. I guess streaming the entire experience from the cloud via high bandwidth and stand-alone is really the only way this is going to go.

I'll post back in 40 years to see if I was close. ;)
This worked for us too - thank you!

Edit: It also works for subdomains.
Heroku - if you're listening. Please do NOT migrate IPs / load balancers here for a little while. You might also do some work to detect those of us who have bypassed your DNS, and give us some nudges individually to move back to your DNS when the time is right.

You just caused a very painful outage for your entire customer base, and a number of us used this hack to get back online. If you don't recognize this, and cause ANOTHER outage (the third in the past few weeks...) we're going to flee even faster to more stable platforms.
That's blaming the wrong entity - again. No-one seems to read error pages nowadays, not shocking. Also, Steam never used CF services, and user reports about CF are that - they looked at their favorite Substack (https://substack.com) and just seeing a CF page they assumed it's CF's fault.
Well yeah, like I said:

> Transportation is expensive.
Wouldn't the worst case be the underlying IP address changes, and your site now points to some other service? Since Heroku doesn't offer static IPs, I don't think.
As soon as adoption starts hitting 80%, lazy sysadmins won't bother setting up ipv4 support, and suddenly the ipv4 internet will get less useful, and things will snowball to IPv6 (in public at least - I'm sure internal company LAN's will remain IPv4 behind a proxy for decades more).

To get from 40%to 80% just requires a few ISP's to make it the default on their routers, which they have an incentive to do as soon as they run out of IP's and CGNAT starts to get expensive to run. Enabling IPv6 immediately halves the load on the CGNAT boxes because all the CDN traffic immediately uses IPv6.
I think they were logging them in clear text, so server side, prolly ended up in splunk or elasticsearch.
