Cultural norms change. Everyone thought that the people were going to look silly and pretentious when the AirPods came out. Now it’s normal. The same with the Apple Watch.
Indeed, but on non-connected pieces of physical hardware that use physical media, the experience is similar enough to "owning" something that generally thinking about such things in terms of "ownership" makes sense (even if it's just a convenient fiction).

In the modern era though, with DRM and phoning home etc, it's much more obvious that you "own" nothing.

Yes, and I've worked on browser-based games that are built on top of webhooks. But what percentage of people could forego webhooks entirely if they weren't doing any personalization or tracking? Or could at least get away with webhooks without any "real" queuing infra? I'd wager a large number.
You can also use a custom domain (and/or anything else Fastmail lets you choose), this way you can put all the randomly generated emails coming to you in a single folder (as a rule).
There is some compute cost with supporting infra migrations for them.
Not sure what the difference is. But it does seem that no matter how much money you throw at a problem with no measurable impact, there will always be people claiming just a little bit more is needed because this time something will be different and it won't be squandered.

> I've been hearing people say all this since the 1970's. What's different now?

Right, because the problem accelerated when we unpinned from the gold standard. What's different is that the current balance is upwards of 31T dollars. Purchasing power of the U.S. dollar is down significantly from the 70s.

> Crime rates are not rising, they are low compared to the peak in the early 1990's.

They were. And then all of a sudden, they're on the rise again [1]. What might have caused that? Forcing people to stay in their homes, shutter their businesses (leading to employees being laid off), and lose their livelihoods.

> You are unable to consider other possible explanations.

I'm not unable, there are just none that make as much sense. I can throw the same back at you and say that you're unable to consider that government is causing these problems (at the root, meaning direct or indirect). Can you tell me why they're not?

> Your reasoning begins and ends with the premise that the problem can only be government.

Did I say only? No, but in that specific example, it's easily ID'd as a root issue. That's the point of that type of reasoning. I have a hypothesis, does the logic supporting that hypothesis track all the way from the root to the effect and back. If so, I trust it (not in an absolute sense, but enough that I can quickly identify other outcomes as being descendant from that). I can certainly find other fringe causes, but if I had to pick out "the one," it'd be the government, nearly every single time.
> I believe the truth of the matter is the owning a vehicle enables so much more movement and activity.

So it's then fair to say that our society is built around motor vehicle ownership and that an inability to afford one excludes you from all that our society has to offer?
Well it maybe true to some degree and I'm all for being the best version of oneself. But many factors influence what a "man" is and one of them is the opposite sex.

By local repo, do you mean like how Heroku's `git push heroku` works? Or do you mean you want to deploy from your local machine's repo? The `fly deploy` command is a local deployment in the sense that it copies the files of your application and deploys it to the server, regardless if you have git or not.

If you launch Fly from the CLI to test the free tier, you don't need a credit card. Obviously when you exceed the limits of the free tier, you'll need to provide a credit card.

The value of the image is in the human prompter (in the overall concept) but the overall style - the aesthetic is stuck in the past. Its almost impossible to describe aesthetic in text without referencing examples of that aesthetic. Its the case of one image says more than thousand words. It has to be seen.

I am not sure finding new aesthetics is even the playingfield nowdays. Its probably not because we’ve been stuck for decades. Its more about cyclic trends of things forgotten. So who cares. But this will just solidify that even more. But yeah it has already happened and since the tech will be firmly in private hands everybody will be just exploited and pushed by it instead of it helping anyone.
Given all the urban unrest and pandemic in past couple years, this reads like a reactionary or PR piece to discourage even more people from moving out of cities.

I agree that government investment can be very beneficial. For example, there apparently have been some impressive improvements to medical care in Rwanda.

But it seems like you’re making assumptions that poor people in poor countries are bad at spending their money in ways that will matter. GiveDirectly has some good studies so I don’t really believe that.

Also, is replacing a leaky roof “consumption” or “investment?” How about starting a small business or sending kids to school?
Absolutely. I just want to echo this for anyone in this thread considering using rush. Straying from the way rush wants to do things will bring pain. It is definitely not a good fit for every project but embracing it has solved a ton of problems for us (having tons of duplicated node_modules directories bringing intellij to it's knees, keeping versions in sync, path resolution, publishing, deployment)
How do you interpret the sentence "we should strongly consider how much effort we devote to this"? A number of comments (on Reddit and Substack, besides yours) take issue with it, but I can't seem to figure out what it even means, let alone how it's objectionable.

> I think most Americans would like to have the conveniences of a walkable area and the space/affordability advantages of a suburb

I don't know about that. It seems to me that most Americans will sit and wait in their idling car for several minutes so they can get a parking spot that is 100 feet closer to the store's entrance.

I personally park my car immediately when I get in a lot and start walking, which makes it very noticeable how many people would rather hunt for a spot slightly closer. Also, in larger shopping centers my observation is that most people will move their car between each shop to minimize walking.

My understanding is that VSCode's use of the LSP does a lot of "horizon shortening" to keep things performant in a large workspace. If the workspace is small enough it does seem to check every file all the time, as the workspace grows it starts to prioritize open editors and gets lazier about checking other files, and I've even seen situations where it prioritizes the current editors (visible tabs/splits) entirely over even the rest of open editors. I don't think it's necessarily "a bug", but it's certainly seems an intentional laziness to prioritize the editing experience over the compile experience.

Which is a long winded thing to say that it's still often useful in VS Code to keep a full tsc --watch process around even if you think the LSP's horizon is wide enough to catch everything because tsc --watch will always have different performance priorities to VSCode's editing experience.
There are a lot of rights and integrity issues this brings up. It will be interesting to watch.

Thinking about the artistic integrity issue, if people could so easily do things in my own style, I think I'd start to visually integrate words similar to poetry, which in many ways AI sucks at.

Hell, I'd even write my own prompt words into the image and watch models struggle to output anything like a perspective on their basic strength and weakness...

DuckDuckGo has been profitable since 2014 through private search ads, and our company is not controlled or beholden to venture capital (or VC or other money).

Our product vision is an "easy button" for privacy, an all-in-one privacy app. Email protection is part of that, along with search, browsing, etc. Put another way, we see email protection as part of our core product, and within our app we autofill duck addresses in email forms.

We will take your comment into consideration, though we prefer free services where possible so more people can get privacy protection, which is in line with our mission. This service comes with it a set of privacy guarantees here: https://duckduckgo.com/email/privacy-guarantees and we will not be putting ads on it.

But the US seems to have worldclass outliers in just about any field you can think of.
> the reality already is that there is a massive move into the cities not the other way around

That's not what the data says, at least in the US. We consistently see a net change of about 2 million people per year moving out of cities and into the surrounding suburbs: https://www.pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2021/12/16/in-2020-few...

The same trend can be observed in Czechia.

The EU seems to be rather obsessed with achieving an end state where a huge proportion of people (like 50 per cent?) have a degree, but this necessary leads to dumbing down of the curriculum and emergence of mediocre colleges.

We already have people with bachelor degree who can barely write gramatically correct Czech, even though they are natives.

Science brings facts.

Politics deals with how we use those facts.

If the fact brought about by science leads one group of people to kill another, we are faced with a political decision. Do we allow this or do we stand against it.

We need the separation of science and politics. Otherwise, important facts will be politically suppressed and falsehoods will be presented as truth for political gain.

It’s a story as old as the world, I don’t understand why so many people still want to mix those two.
It really depends on the shop. The idea of running and monitoring what you build is essential to truly understand what your code is doing in production so you can make it more stable and secure. At the same time, expecting developers to know everything there is to know about operations is absurd. A logical middle ground is to have operations facilitators able to help developers complete the details like CI/CD pipeline setup and maintenance, log analysis and alerting, etc. Developers need to have active insight into all of these things but ultimately they are hired to write the code to solve problems, not to know off the top of their heads without Googling who to set up the pipelines for deploying and monitoring production code.

Life is very short. If living in a walkable city is a major goal of yours, just move to one now rather than waiting and hoping your not-walkable city will transform itself.

First of all, it probably won’t. But more importantly, even if it does, 20% or more of your remaining healthy lifespan will elapse while it’s happening.

Don’t wait. Carpe deambulatio.
I think the key isn't so much making the single-family homes more dense, but allowing more mixed development mixed into the larger neighborhoods.

Take my neighborhood (south Reston, VA). The main road is about 2.5 miles long. There is a strip mall at both ends, leaving homes in the midde just outside easy walking distance (from my house, by footpath, it's nearly 2 miles to one end and a bit over 1.25 to the other). There is a major intersection about halfway down that main road. Instead of allowing a small shopping area, it's more houses. Hard to change now, but if it had been zoned mixed-use/light commercial at build time, there could be a coffee shop and small grocer there. And bring between 1/3 and 1/2 of the available customers in the area within walking distance of at least some of their regular errands.

Additional benefit of this would be reducing the size of the malls at each end, mostly by removing parking spaces, freeing that space for townhouse, apartments, or more shops.

Take my office... it's 1.25 miles away, and I walk. But, the complex is all offices. If there were a grocer there or on the way, I could eliminate my 1x weekly carload, instead grabbing things as-needed on my walk home.

Same office. I have coworkers who live closer than me, but refuse to try walking because the sidewalks and street crossings from their direction are less user-friendly. Crossing on/off ramps without signals. Crossing a 4 lane highway with 50mph traffic. Etc. Some simple crosswalk modifications could make the office complex walkable to some of these coworkers. But, traffic planners don't even appear to think of these things when building roads - it's almost 100% car-focused.

It seems to be more about the development of the American university system during the 20th century rather than the current status of research in American academics (which is highly corporatized these days, with attendent quality and openness issues).

Also, the average quality of American universities isn't very high, from the paper:

> "The American system is well suited to producing top schools, although at the
cost of inequality. To illustrate, del Corral (2020) compares the performance of
Spain and the United States in a recent Academic Ranking of World Universities list often known as the “Shanghai ranking”... The United States accounts for 40 of the top 100 universities; Spain for 0. On the other hand, 83 percent of public Spanish universities (delivering in-person instruction) appear somewhere in the ranking that only 23 percent of their American counterparts do."
This.

This is also the reason I'm not particularly excited about DDG in general. They have exactly the same business model as Google, so there is no reason for me to feel confident they won't follow the same trajectory as Google.

Oh, that was always true. It just wasn’t possible for those people to spend all day yelling at each other for it.

The context of the disagreements was largely limited to newspapers and politicians. Some assumption of professionalism, editing and journalistic integrity was included with nationwide dialogues.

The internet, Twitter, political amplification, bot amplification, media consolidation, etc have made it 1000x worse.

Before, you could disagree on a topic and go about your day. Now you are beaten over the head with every topic constantly to remind you how much you disagree with it.
The Netherlands is pretty rough without a car. Public transport is pretty bad compared to other European places. I'm dutch but live in Barcelona now which is a lot better. In the Netherlands everything is privatized so each line has to run a profit whereas here they view it as an investment into making the city liveable. So even people in the cities own a car to get around and the results are massive traffic jams.

Same with health care, there's an excellent public system here which is free (paid by tax) but in the Netherlands you pay a private company a lot and there's penalties if you use it.

If you live in a big city in the Netherlands and don't need to leave it much you'll be ok work public transport but there's a huge housing crisis there too so city apartments come at a huge premium.

FWIW I love not needing a car and I hope I'll never need to own one again or even drive one. I've always found it so stressful.
I don't know about that. If I recall correctly, there was a time when Google was trying to tamp down on pages with excessive advertising, so SEO spammers just switched to making pages that superficially looked like normal informational pages, but the content was all either ad copy or spun text, and all their links went to products they wanted to sell.

Show HN: I built a tool to help you read Hacker News on Kindle
Hi HN,

I'm Daniel Nguyen. In June, I quit my job to start indie hacking full-time.

The idea of KTool first came to my mind when I was reading "Ask HN: I'm a software engineer going blind, how should I prepare?"[0]

I've been wearing glasses since I was 5. My right eye is basically blind. Doctors said there is no chance to cure it.

I was genuinely scared. Like holy shit, if my left eye stops working, my life is done. Since then I've been very conscious about time spent on computer screens.

That's when I started using Kindle-related products: to offload as many reading materials as possible to the Kindle. I was a happy customer of Push to Kindle. Great product!!

Then I ran into multiple limitations which led me to build KTool: a tool to send anything online to Kindle. Blog posts, Twitter threads, Hacker News discussions, RSS, newsletters... you name it.

If you're a Kindle owner and you read a lot of online content, give KTool a try.
