Note that we are not discussing a demand for Cloudlfare to reinstate KF's service, we are discussing a demand for Cloudflare to stop doing business with KF.

This thread is not about defending KF, it is about defending Cloudflare from demands that they stop doing business with some organization that some have decided is undesirable.
This is pretty similar to my situation. Unmarried partner of 7 years, made similar income for a while, but I'm ~2x now.

The number one reason it works for us is we also both live well below our means (house payment is ~4% of combined income, low COL area & bought 8 years ago) and are generally frugal people (think thrift stores, buying used stuff when its logical, mostly eat at home, etc...). If one of us was extravagant constantly and the other wasn't it would probably cause issues in general. We are 100% transparent with each other about how much we are putting away in savings.

We split everything evenly by default via a shared Credit Card and bank account (very low running balance in that bank): eating out, vacations, etc... I own the house from before we met, so that's not split evenly out of fairness since I'm building equity and she isn't technically. So, I pay 70% of the cost (100% of maintenance costs) and build equity, and she gets to save a ton on housing.

The separate finances has become an issue exactly one time, recently, and we have what we think is a pretty fair solution. We are ready to live somewhere we both really like, in a nicer (but small) house with more privacy. We are still looking at stuff below our means, but it will be ~4x current housing costs. The plan is if we find something we love on the cheaper side, we just split it evenly, the end. If we find something perfect that's a bit more of a stretch we will start splitting it unevenly in both down-payment and mortgage payments (60/40 or something) and will have a separate legal agreement outside of the title stating the ownership split.

The summary is: it works for us because other things about each of us keeps us from spending a ton, so the income gap is largely irrelevant. Personality wise, I'm the one that will go extravagant on something every now and then so it works out (think: replacing a broken dishwasher with a really nice one that isn't on sale, not "15k vacation")
from what i've seen only children tend to grow up more spoiled and with worse social and coping skills.
I am 73% confident that there is a 50% chance that the above comment was generated by GPT-3.
I had an E46 330Ci that was just a joy to drive. Those in-line sixes are bulletproof, and the six-speed manual never failed to bring a smile to my face. Great cars, annoying upkeep
I took a lot of time to understand that American slums are parking lots with trailers.
Because speech has real consequences, especially misinformation?
http://readsomethinginteresting.com/ is also great.
I know a lot of Americans who are well-travelled and have seen world-class transit in Europe and Asia, and most of them still choose to live in suburbs.

The average American wants to live in a detached house that they own. This does not lead to dense cities. It leads to sprawl, which is what we got because it’s what we want.
The problem isn't really with the internet, but a handful of websites that have come to mediate the internet for a lot of people (despite appearances to the contrary, the two are not the same).

This is a critical distinction, because the former is a problem like "the water is too wet", like you can't really fix that. You can build new digital infrastructure though. That's a solvable problem.
So if I find a WebKit bug in the latest iOS beta, file it with both Apple and WebKit, and get ignored, I should just fuck off? I can't fork it (Apple won't use my fork) and it's unlikely my fix would be complete and accepted for upcoming releases, so I guess you're right. "Fuck off" and let iOS devices crash is my only option.

This is purely hypothetical (e_e)
Aren't they multiplexing the service people between a dozen different calls? Only half joking - a second might not be enough time to give the impression that you're being assisted.
While I’ll agree that things have gotten too political for my tastes, don’t you want a say in how your company operates, what products it builds, and how the products you build are used? For me it’s definitely not just about the code.
In a similar MyFitnessPal alternative vein, I've been using FoodNoms[1] for a food diary for a while. It's focused on only that, which I appreciate compared to these "literally everything smooshed into one app" takes.

I like Pixlr, I use pixlr.com/e. It's free and web based and has always worked well for me.

Did that happen recently? It says in Pixlr's site they're owned by INMAGINE.
Good idea, if indeed everyone would do that.

As it is, you're introducing a competing standard where lowercase b suddenly has a new meaning, making it incompatible with everything that was already written correctly in the past. Maybe it's a better system in the end, but is it worth breaking compatibility and trying to convince millions of people in the industry of a new better standard?
Nothing from any of Musk’s enterprises has been even slightly innovative, scientifically. He is an industrial technologist, which is fine, but it means he scales up known processes.
I agree completely!

We learned this the hard way during the Civil Rights Movement: there needs to be some public participation in the restrictions that private businesses can place on their customer base.
At this point I think most Americans simply can’t conceive of a society that isn’t car centric. Some want a car centric society because they don’t know another way. Walkable communities are overall healthier and I think it would be best to get away from a car centric society even if it’s something people don’t desire. The average commute is something like 20 miles one way. This number increases as the population increases and maintaining that infrastructure long term is a waste of resources and environmentally unsound.
I think about this a fair amount. Either games these days are completely different or I am; now that I've played streamlined modern games I don't have the time or patience to deal with games that are incredibly fiddly or have rough edges all over the place.

I have been trying Kerbal Space Program recently for the first time. I put it off many times because I opened it up and looked at the controls settings and saw ~100 key bindings to remember (depending on the build/launch/orbital situation) and bounced right off. Now that I'm in the career mode I see that the bindings that you actually have to know get introduced slowly, but if the game came out today I think it would benefit from more polish and hiding the complexity before you're required to think about it.
Hmm… I have no need for having both separated formal dining rooms and living rooms, too, but I also don't want the kitchen's smells, fumes and heat entering uncontrolledly into my living room, either.
iOS does it automagically if you didn’t know. Fastmail gives you 600 but with your comment now I want a plugin to do it from the browser.
Refreshed few times. 99% of sites were about IT, programming, gaming, tech, STEM in general. That's really narrow representation of internet. Maybe it's just my luck.
Government issued ID perhaps?
Search YouTube for “stroad” (edit spelling) there’s a guy that’s very passionate about this topic with a lot of high quality videos on it.
Sure, but that's really a separate conversation than what this thread has been talking about so far -- which is whether or not we can trust that DDG is more private than Google.
People who remember all the grey-market Cisco gear they could buy that came from China, might well be skeptical that Russia has been truly prevented from buying chips that are made in China...
>It's always been about trolling and harassing.

That is not the point of the site.

>Why are you defending them?

Because I've been a member of communities where outsiders inaccurately describe the community to others making it seem like something it isn't.
Our homes are also designed in way that causes alienation from family members. Many rooms have TV and the seating is arranged in such a way that we can compulsively watch to dull our anxiety instead of having meaningful conversations with wife and kids. This is the default and without everyone’s okay in the family it’s hard to change this.
The streetcar “conspiracy” is a tired old cliche. Americans wanted cars. They would have saved the streetcars if they had valued them as highly as they valued cars.
In this environment, curating services like https://thinking-about-things.com/ or https://essays.findka.com/ are becoming increasingly valuable.
ZeroMQ is not a messaging queue, but a messaging network library for broker-less communication.
There are a lot of people claiming they did it with Haskell (e.g. https://www.stackbuilders.com/blog/wasm-and-cloudflare-worke...). But the compilers don't claim to support it.

I am still to make sense of it.
Kiwifarms members are literally terrorists. They use fear and violence to push an agenda. They have literally killed people. I don't even just mean by pushing people to suicide (which I do believe is violence as well)- the terrorist who killed worshippers at the mosques in New Zealand posted on Kiwi Farms before the attacks.

This isn't hyperbole. Cloudflare is working hard to keep a website linked with actual real terrorists online.
Cool. How? Can you elaborate on "I crawl myself." Do you mean you are the search engine and your search engine is an index of stuff you found that fits your criteria? What criteria, precisely?
Looks great at first glance. Thank you!

Could someone at Apple buy this from the OP and replace the garbage calculator that comes with iOS?
Ok, so why not find a job as a contractor for a European company?
No, and I prefer it that way. Spending another 45 minutes with people I already spend 50-60 hours a week with is not something I need or want. Lunch is for me the opportunity to take a well-deserved break away from work and from coworkers and the office (whether virtual or physical).

Lunch is me time, not work time.
> This is precisely the position Cloudflare is in: they are entirely within both their rights and the realm of acceptable social behavior to remove nuisances from their premises.

No, Cloudlfare is more in the position of a random person coming to the counter to ask that one of their customers be thrown off the premises because they have posted on a forum that someone should be murdered.

While Cloudflare does have the right to ask anyone to leave their premises, they also have the right, and are well in the realm of acceptable social behavior, to not investigate what their customers are saying, and to ignore people coming off the street to demand they throw customers out.
> So, It's best to use permissible license for the open-source version of the application in case of dual-license if we want to take back the contributions to our non open-source version.

That's one option; the other is to require that contributors assign you copyright of their contributions (perhaps with compensation) so you can release it in the same manner as your own code.

Narrowly focused on the effectiveness of the dual license scheme itself, permissive licenses "don't work as well" because there is less incentive for anyone to pay you for the other license; typically all they'd be avoiding is the attribution requirements.
> Not only can you track your diet and exercise, this application gives YOU every feature you need to holistically manage your health while also allowing PARTNERS like pharmaceutical manufacturers, health systems, and payors the ability to integrate their patient support programs directly into the application. You can do this all from your fingertips on iOS and Android right from the Redi Health app!

Erm, no thanks. This is a privacy nightmare!
1: I do not wish to charge my headphones.

2: I have many headphones with higher quality sound than earbuds can provide.

3: Bluetooth still kinda sucks, even after all this time.

4: Bluetooth is subject to denial of service, security concerns.

5: Apple's purpose with the decision was to increase revenue, that is all. You all are now paying $$$ for headphones with batteries, etc. onboard, and they no longer had to implement an audio amp or jack. win for apple, not the consumer.
Some thoughts as a guy who worked help desk/call center for many years.

1) It's sad that we need this. However, I've talked to many, many customers that are not at all shy about being openly racist, and as long as we continue to entertain that "The customer is always right" mentality, it won't go away. I had customers who would get very hostile with my coworker adjacent to my desk who was from Pakistan but lived in the US, and often the customer would not believe that he was in the US until I audibly walked over to his desk and said in my loudest white-guy mid-Atlantic accent, "Hey, Mohammad! What seems to be the problem?"

2) I don't think this approach will work, if for no other reason than that Indian-British English has a distinctive style to it that extends beyond the accent. I once took a Udemy course (might've been on Elasticsearch?) and it was very clearly written by someone in India who then paid a white guy to read all of the slides in his American English accent. The results were hilarious, because the guy was clearly trying to do his best to make "do the needful" sound like something a Bay Area dude would naturally say, but, it simply wasn't.

3) For what it's worth, while I can immediately tell when I've called into a tech call-center based in India, I've been genuinely surprised at the relative lack of "foreign accent" when I've called into a call-center based out of Singapore or the Philippines. To my ears it sounded like non-distinct English (e.g. not quite American but not quite British either, and certainly not Indian).
So, the parent comment is flagged out, but the comment was a lie. I followed up the sources, watched the videos. Teaching people how to use Twitter effectively isn't setting up a massive "bot" farm.

The comment was a pure lie.
If that was true, then NIMBYism would have no political force — but it clearly does.
No one can give you advice on this. We miss a lot of the details.

> and she was worried that I was taking advantage of the situation

We don't know how serious these events were.

> In the end, we decided that the buyout money would go to retirement and not be touched.

Is this a shared account or her account.

> she would put in a rainy day fund for home improvements or traveling etc.

Is that her fund or a shared fund?

> This arrangement kind of worked until it came time to use that rainy day funds and she started feeling that we were spending her money.

Is that a surgery or a buy a boat situation?
Yup “security third” is a very real idea, most startups don’t have time to worry about security much, they have to get a product launched
You are literally describing their sales model.

It is a fishhook constructed between an implied social/free project and a corporation’s revenue source.

You took the bait.
Salesman: Current cost $x, Future cost $x/20

Client: Sold. Can you do accounting? HR? IT? Actually, I just want everything you sell. I know there's a language barrier but we can sort out the details later, let's roll this out now.
For sure. This seems to be a press agent "inspired" article. Even if you use Bluetooth headphones, why wouldn't you want the option.
If this were true, I'd think Manhattan apartments would be cheap.
> Why should cyclists, who got the roads built in the first place, be driven from the roads by motorists?

This feels a bit like saying that the US shouldn't have abolished slavery since it was founded by slave owners.

> Roads used to be shared between horses, carriages, bicycles, vendors, and pedestrians.

Lead used to be in paint and gas. Doctors used to perform surgery without even washing their hands first. People used to use chamber pots instead of toilets. And roads used to be disgusting from being covered in horse manure.

> The car is a monotheistic religion, there can only be one god, the car, and you have to devote your whole life and society to it.

No, we just want different spaces to be used for different means of transportation, similarly to how you wouldn't want someone riding a motorcycle on the sidewalk.
My understanding is that QUIC will not help much if your page is self contained (no references to outside resources). Because this page is the only resource and QUIC is all about parallelizing multiple resources. In regards to congestion control QUIC is very similar to TCP [1].

Basically QUIC avoids a case where your image #2 waits for image #1 (head of line blocking). It loads both images in parallel streams. In classic HTTP, TCP was asked to load image #1, then it was asked to load image #2 and TCP have to provide responses in order. So even if a single TCP segment of image #1 is lost, image #2 will have to wait. Browsers try to open multiple TCP connection to avoid head of line blocking, but there is a limit to that.

QUIC also combines TCP and TLS handshakes, so initial latency should be improved somewhat

This is such a clear hit piece. HelloAlfred isn't some high tech R&D startup that you can just extract value by knowing information.

No investor (esp. one who has built companies before) tries to build a new company just because they can't acquire enough. There is always a price to get it done and that is infinitely cheaper than investing your own time. The likely answer is that the company was underperforming and not executing the way Neumann wanted.
There's always Leetcode and Hacker Rank.
If you get involved in an open source project your horizons may narrow quickly, so it's best understanding the strengths of being a generalist or being best in a particular area.
The key thing in the development sphere is that nothing stands still, and neither should you.
Last time I check, these 'dense' urban area aren't exactly great for anybody but cars.
> Now they should have lower fidelity audio

Like most things audiophiles say: I call bullshit.

http://soundexpert.org/articles/-/blogs/audio-quality-of-lig...

> Audio quality of Apple Lightning to 3.5mm adapter (A1749) is almost as good as in-built mobile audio solutions by Apple, though it has slightly worse df-measurements. Mostly due to the higher jitter. But if you listen music you will not hear the difference; it is too subtle to be perceived.
I’m told that we don’t spend anything on education so this must be false.
Basically they say you are violating their patent. You can license it for $X and then everything is good. If you don't license it we will sue you for patent infringement.

The problem is typically defending yourself cost you a lot more money than it would be to just pay the $X. In other countries if you defended yourself and won, the loser would have to pay your cost, but not in the US making it a less risky venture.

Often times small companies are quite busy and just pay the license fee to make the trolls go away. Unfortunately that just ends up creating more trolls.

There are ways to invalidate a patent, but the US Patent Office that granted the bad patent is immune from any financial liability from the damage their bad patent caused, so the US Patent Office keeps granting them.
One or two of the remaining smaller social media platforms?
Chaos Theory Explained with Plinko
To me, and some tech friends I know who actually understand the implementation, the CSAM debacle is more about control and freedom, and not about privacy. I am not paranoid enough to worry about hash collision, so I am not worried about one day my phone will send my private data to Apple. (I just don't want to pay for a spyware that runs on a device I own, with the intention to work against the owner's interest)
In some ways they already are digitally generated in the sense that they rose to prominence on the backs of recommendation algorithms. Celebrity, at least since the 20th century, have always been an at least partially artificial construct as well: from movie lights to digital vtubers, there's a whole industry of abstracting person from image.
I've seen so much anti-car, pro-walkability, pro-transit, pro-bikeability sentiment online recently.

I really hope this is proof of the younger generations -- Millenials, Zoomers, and younger folks even -- waking up to the idea that the USA in particular has become a toxic environment thanks to cars. WFH was a big wakeup call, I think -- once you step away from the commute for a year or two, trying to sit in traffic again seems insane. I guess it's a successful "unboiling of the frog," where we realized that car infratructure has been turned up for the last century to unbearable levels.

I hate cars. I don't want to use them on a daily basis. I'm cheap, and I don't want to own one, or maintain one. I try to do everything I can by biking or walking, or transit if those aren't feasible. It is nearly impossible in 95% of the USA.

Selfishly, I really want the USA to bring city centers back to livable levels by banning most cars and redesigning them for humans. Otherwise I'm absolutely going to end up moving to Europe eventually -- likely the Netherlands -- because driving a car is just so unpleasant for me. I'd rather not learn a whole new language and leave my family and friends so far behind, but especially since covid I've come to realize that driving makes me miserable, and I need other ways to get from my home into the world.

Symbolic reasoning based AI goes back to at least the 1950s. You're missing almost a half-century of history there.
Add Jews to the list other commenters have provided here.

“The History of White People” by Nell Irvin Painter covers this idea in depth.
You don't get spam on Snapchat? I think you might define it differently than I do. Since those walled gardens have a verification step before allowing sending messages, spam on those platforms consists of "friend requests" from unknown people. If one is foolish enough to accept one of those, the more traditional spam message soon follows.

So yes, most walled gardens' two-step approach makes the spam more civilized, but they don't eliminate it.
Pickups are very American -> I would expect stick shift to go away there first before hot hatchbacks etc.
That being a major factor in the demise of streetcars is highly disputed. There was an interesting conversation about this on hn last month. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32166175
I wonder if there are AI generated posts on HN that fly under the radar. There probably aren't as many as social media platforms since there not enough money to be made by doing it.
That one looks good, pity it's an iOS exclusive.

Been using FatSecret[0] myself on and off for the past few years. Name is terrible, and over time it's slowly been becoming more of a featurespam bilkfest, but for the time being it's still perfectly usable without handing over a subscription fee or whatever.

Probably not what your looking for, but my two cents is that the 3090 will be very relevant for ML workloads for years to come. Even the GTX 1080 is still being used for local Stable Diffusion models, and considering that the 3090 has AI-specific hardware in it, I think the card is a pretty safe bet.

Just try and get it as far under MSRP as possible. Nvidia has an enormous GPU surplus now, do a little shopping and see what you can find.
I wouldn't say it's abnormal -- startups are in a constant state of SNAFU (situation normal: all fucked up) -- but it's definitely not acceptable.
