Indeed, and for a Linux user, you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem.

It doesn’t mean Kubernetes isn’t a useful turnkey solution, especially if it’s managed.

Are they now? That's a shame; I sold my last one to a scrapyard after someone stole both cats out of it, a week before I was going to move - I just didn't have time to deal with it.

I was always skeptical of the P38s because of the airbags. How do you deal with that over the long term?
Tuna fish migrant populations plummeted to only a 13% of its former numbers. Mediterranean seals vanished from Spain some decades ago also.

So orcas are trying to get the attention from humans, because they know that humans have tuna. And they do strange things because they also know that humans trow dead fishes discarded in nets to the sea.
The way I see it, if they're basing a pay cut on the pay they could offer someone else, they should just fire the employee and hire someone else for that lower rate. If they're not willing to fire an employee, then that employee is providing something beyond what a new hire could, and that makes them worth more than "any other work-from-home employee in the market".
It's a little annoying to do it each time, but please always put a disclaimer you're the founder / project-creator when recommending it.
Careful, your opinions might be considered heresy by some.

It's been shocking to observe how quickly society descended into "trust the science", when time and again the public has been betrayed for trusting these institutions, the pharmaceutical companies, the politicians and even scientists.

I'm not saying I agree with one side or the other completely, but it's a relief to see the tide of public opinion turning toward critical thinking. (Maybe not though, the manufacture of consent is as powerful as ever.)

Tell HN: Heroku alternatives with generous free tiers
Here are the three that I know of that are equivalent to what Heroku used to offer([1],[2]):

- https://fly.io/pricing (requires credit card)

- https://northflank.com/pricing

- https://www.koyeb.com/pricing

Runners up:

- https://render.com/pricing (sleeps after 15 minutes, 30s spin-up)

- https://qoddi.com/#pricing (no custom domains)

- https://railway.app/pricing (only runs 500hrs/month, but doesn't require credit card)

- https://appliku.com/#pricing (only Django, no custom domains)

Note: Fly.io is the only one of these I have actually used. I like it so far. I plan to migrate my Heroku apps to Fly. Edit: just tried their automatic migration tool ( https://fly.io/launch/heroku ) and it works like a charm!

Yeah but that's what users want. `<project manager> init` is a de facto standard way to say "Ok, new tool that I don't understand, make me a blank project."

Just because Deno's blank project is literally just `/* main.ts */ console.log("hello world!");` doesn't mean that the `init` command is useless.

It's not useful if you are already aware how Deno works. The point of adding it is to help people who don't know. It's about discoverability.

To me email is one of the most worthwhile services to pay for—it is the backbone of your digital identity after all.

That being said, there’s probably not much need to pay more than $5/mo. I’m very happy with Fastmail at $60/yr.
Holy cow! BTRON is awesome. It's like the gaslight home-lighting era, in the modern day. A web browser?
I've been using Gadgetbridge with various Mi Band models (currently Mi Band 6) for years. Works perfectly.
It's kind of a familiar mainstream sound and doesn't seem to do anything new or exciting. There's a lot of content out there these days and I suspect if you haven't got a cashed up label driving engagement with your videos, you'll end up with an organic viewcount more like this.

It's not the sort of thing I care for that much anyway. I'm more into electronic music like acid house.
Huh?

The advice is very much in alignment with the "Zero to One" book. They are explaining how they made their startup "successful". But that doesn't mean if you follow their foot steps your startup will be successful as well.

This line of thinking is not far from the type that leads to cargo cult or any other superstitious belief.

So, not necessarily good or bad advice, do whatever works best for you, but it's important to measure often to know if things are actually working.
The current format promotes intellectual diversity both in content and comments, instead of creating segments with lower diversity. It also seems to help promote a forcing towards higher quality content as there is less available space to compete in. Attention-wise, it's nice to only have to check one page - and consistency-wise, simplicity seems to promote longevity.
There is also the principle of the benefit of the doubt where, in doubt, assume the writer is not a complete idiot. Goes a long way to filling these communication details without forcing the writer to write a philosophical thesis.
That’s a big no.

Also, it's not a problem with the original article, it uses units correctly - it's a problem with the title, and with some comments.
The art-psychology on your site is really similar to what I see in designers for startups. I can see why you'd wonder.

- Good is bad / bad is good / value is best understood deeply, not in a shallow way

- Relations & roles are not set in stone; why should they be?

- Driven-enough by personal values to decide in a mature way whether they are a match or not

- Able to nurture a new vibe without fearing what it will turn into, etc.

- "Medium-sized" kind of sounds lame to them tbh

Startups are so variable in all kinds of ways...Good luck with wherever your career takes you.

They should have mentioned JAB Code (ISO standard 23634).

By default they use 8 colors or 3 bits per cell instead of the 1 bit per cell of most black and white codes, but can go up to 64 colors per cell (6 bits). The format also seems to be a bit more flexible and offers MUCH larger code sizes than QR at present. The goal as I recall was to store biometric or ID data locally rather than being forced to hold just a URL. It's also patent-free.

Ya, certainly a concern when going from well-funded org with hired experts to just yourself.

For myself, I just run automated security updates (uptime is not a pinnacle concern for me), do the basic fail2ban set-up, ensure I have a bit of reporting. Most importantly, I pray to Cthulhu I'm enough of a low-priority target that all I need to fend off is drive-by attacks.

I try as much as possible to isolate e.g. credentials and sensitive information from public infrastructure. Everything else that is more sensitive I stick behind tailscale, usually hosted at home on Pis or my NAS.
Definitely do not show them Spirited Away as a young child. I was permanently scarred (emotionally) by the grotesqueness of no-face as a child (~5). It really depends on the movie, but the ones with more mature themes should be left until they are at least in their teens. As a blanket statement, I would not generally say Ghibli films are as suitable for really young children as Disney/Pixar films are.
Oh dang, thanks for flagging this. It's fixed now :)
I was interested in the concept and applied for a position on the team but was rejected without a phone screen. Thought my enthusiasm would at least warrant a preliminary discussion.

Phishing awareness is one thing.

When they check emails, they should always double check who is sending it. One common question I get asked - "Is this email legit?", where the email claims to be Microsoft, Google, etc. saying they _need_ to click this link to do X for their account.
Only if you get something actually accepted on a big OSS project can you make it look like someone else did it. You can't just magically get stuff committed to Linux or Chrome or whatever, that project would need to accept the PR. You could make people look bad/weird by making and accepting PRs for your own project though. But I think most people seem aware of this nature of unsigned git commits having any email address that the author wants

I always figured the LA story gag of driving 5 metres to your neighbour's house was only a mild exaggeration of reality...

It's not far from reality. But mostly because so much of the US lacks sidewalks, so driving is the safest way to get A-to-B.

When getting anywhere useful requires navigating places like this [1], using the car for everything quickly becomes the default.

1 - https://assets.bwbx.io/images/users/iqjWHBFdfxIU/ijhV2hgcKaq...

Edit - yes, that photo has sidewalks, but there are so many intersections and road crossing, it's not a pleasant place to walk. Many places don't have sidewalks at all, or have some, but they're disconnected from each other block-to-block. Or you have to walk across a massive parking lot to get to the shops. Much of suburban US really is quite dystopian in this regard.

If this link works [2], it's the intersection to enter th nearest shopping center to my house. Note the lack of sidewalk on at least 2 corners. Crosswalk only on one side (if you live on the close left corner, there's no way to safely walk across the street in either direction). Lack of bike lans on the crossing street (the street has some, but they inexplicably end JUST before the shopping center). And even if you do manage to walk/ride into the shops, you have to dodge cars trying to park before you get to the actual shops. I wish this was unique, but it's extremely common in the suburbs.

The only materials I used were JavaScript documentation and math I learned in 8th grade (I was a few grades ahead).
I didn't need tutorials. Sometimes I literally dreamed about those projects at night. Occasionally I would see solutions to the problem in the dream, and implement it in the morning.

You are plagued with doubt.
You don't actually have to do that before having a child, you can do that while having a child.

If you are not wasteful (constant new things, fancy vacations etc), young children are not expensive. It really only gets expensive when you have to pay tuition.
I've not tried the webcam and microphone, which I guess i could from Firefox.
Battery life is less than when the drivers further evolve, because I think it's imperfect in going into sleep mode.

The distro is Asahi Linux, which is ARM ArchLinux. All ARM binaries.

If you follow the Asahi Linux page, it updates super frequently, as drivers get tuned and so on.
My bootcamp at FB in ~2015 had like 4 or 5 speakers who didn’t even show up to their allotted slots.

It revealed a lot about how much FB’ers respect their colleagues’ time! Pretty gross if you ask me.
GC pauses are inevitable unless:

- you think it’s ok to crash your program with an OOM just because the GC couldn’t keep up with allocation rate. To my knowledge, nobody ever thinks this is ok, so:

- you inevitably pause. Maybe it’s rare. Maybe you are “real time” only in the sense that you want responsiveness 99.99% of the time rather than 100% of the time.

- you prove schedulability. The “good” alternative that I would assume few people do is prove that the GC can keep up (I.e. prove that it is schedulable). To do that you need to have WCET and WCAR (worst case allocation rate) analyses and you need to feed those into a schedulability analysis. Then there’s a bunch of ridiculous math. If you’re lucky, you can prove you’re schedulable, but it seems like a strictly worse dev plan than just writing C/Ada/Rust/whatever code that doesn’t GC.

I list the third option because I know it’s theoretically possible to do it, but I don’t recommend it and I don’t consider it to be a serious option if you’re building something that lives will depend on.
>Cloudflare has already made an editorial statement in the past

I know that Cloudflare previously did this. I don't think they should be taking an editorial stance like that.

My point is that it is not typical to have a CDN taking an editorial stance. It is expected that a newspaper will.

>Visa and Mastercard won't processes payments from dispensaries even though they have (effectively) no limit on the number of transactions they can support.

I think weed is still illegal at the federal level? Visa and MasterCard could easily be accused of facilitating a felony. This seems clear cut to me.

Is Visa and MasterCard doing this in countries where weed is completely legal?

>Visa and Mastercard threatened to cut-off OnlyFans unless they dropped "explicit content".

Visa and MasterCard claimed they were doing it because banks require there to be proper validation against child porn. This is not Visa and MasterCard directly.

Regardless, who is to blame in this situation, they are not taking an editorial stance. They are saying that OnlyFans is facilitating child porn which is against the law.

I don't know about OnlyFans, but before getting threatened by Visa, PornHub clearly wasn't doing enough. They appear to have knowingly kept multiple child porn videos up even after being informed multiple times that they were child porn. Perhaps onlyfans is better than pornHub, but I doubt it.

Regardless, you can't really compare on of the most heavily regulated industries with one of the least.

It is not clear to me that KiwiFarms is actually violating the law or not removing illegal content. Do you have any examples of Kiwi Farm facilitating criminal behavior like PornHub and probably OnlyFans were doing?
Ask HN: How to pick a CS Master's thesis topic?
I'm currently enrolled in a MS in Computer Science program and need to come up with a topic for research before I take my thesis credits next semester. We have the option of doing either a project or a thesis, and most of my peers have chosen the project option so I don't have many good examples of successful theses at my institution. I would like to apply for a PhD program in the future so looking at doing original research and a thesis.

For those of you who have written a thesis, how did you select your topic? Were you able to parlay your MS research into successful placement in a PhD program? Any advice on how to find a research topic within a larger domain (for example, programming languages)?
I meant with regard to the ability for anyone to use it without, say, violating patents. Plenty of drugs discovered and developed with NIH money go on to be patented by private companies.
How common is it for HTTP client libraries to respect HTTP 429 Too Many Requests and the Retry-After header? And how many APIs actually implement it?

1. There isn't as much of a difference here as you think. Contractors do turn around and use components developed in public contracts for other consulting projects. Most commonly with other sovereigns, especially when the original contract was with a city or state, but sometimes at the national level as well.

2. With respect to R&D, one big difference is that the government doesn't provide seed funding. They provide grants. If the government wanted equity in research labs, they'd have to pay a lot more. You'll see this in practice if you ever have the extreme displeasure of doing non-useless research in academia. Companies that insist on IP ownership/sharing end up paying much higher premiums for university research contracts. Repealing Bayh-Dole would have no effect on the accessibility of actually useful research; universities and companies would privately fund the useful stuff and leave the government to fund the labs of politically-connected/twitter-famous but otherwise totally useless academics.

(To be clear: we're on the same side here with respect to open access publications.)
I think it’s the managers who are worried about employees being more productive without “oversight” - who needs to crack the whip?
in my case i could use it as a daily driver, since i'm just needing a fast browser and Linux with compilers etc. but i've been using macos as a daily driver despite loathing (since the dawn of time) its font rendering.

As a candidate, it's an awful feeling to spend time only to get ghosted.

It's usually not malicious, just disorganization. From a hiring manager's perspective, it's too easy for things to slip through the cracks. When the volume of candidates increases, it's hard to keep track of all the zip file submissions + individual repos while making sure the eng team reviews them all.

This is one of the problems my team is hoping to solve through software. So far, we're seeing teams working with us getting back to 100% of candidates (often with personalized feedback), with median times as fast as 1 day. I hope we can reduce the frequency of terrible take-home experiences.
Good points. Also, constitutional constraints apply to public schools and universities so they are not supposed to push a state religion such as marxist theology. It is also illegal to fire someone or discriminate against them for not adopting a faith.

Right now the job is to make more aware that marxism and by proxy wokism doesn't just look like a religion, it is a religion and has a clear theology, so constitutional protections against state religions apply and this should stop the woke abuse of political power for religious aims.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fqj-MKG9SnU&t=1s

Likewise constitutional protections apply against enforcement of the marxist faith using DIE.
Let’s hope they don’t start eating tide pods.
I wonder if it applies to overseas labs?
I don't see how any of this applies.

The infrastructure isn't paid for when it's built (including the public house). It's financed on debt. Pay-by-use is just a form of tax payment.

It's just that the "use" for information is nearly free, so it doesn't make sense to charge for usage.

If the road was already completely paid for by tax-payers (no debt), and then a toll company wanted to operate the road for a 99% margin - you'd see a lot more people complaining about that.

Street parking is an interesting example in that the demand charge is probably unrelated to the underlying cost. However, it's just one of the many examples of taking tax dollars from Pot A to pay for things in Pot B.
Some people have disabled spouses.
It doesnt. Bulverism would like to have a word with you.
A federal ban has nothing to do with totality. Any federal ban will include an exception for medical reasons and may include a rape exception as well. That is hardly a "total" ban.

As far as I know no country has a total ban and there isn't any significant effort in any country to introduce one. Maybe you could provide an example where there is a total ban?
#4 (general caution/conservatism) also seems believable to me. If things were going very well pre-covid (like if you’re a Google or Facebook), and you don’t know how much of that was attributable to the office environment for your particular company and processes, it’s less risky to RTO now and avoid the unknowns associated with transitioning to permanent remote work vs trying to undo things a few years from now. And if there’s too much pushback they can easily just not push RTO anymore
the people who run government funded health facilities are a different set of people that run education or transportation. Only the funding source is the same.

The extra syntax is to fix having to count the number of items to get the value you want like ‘$$=foo($7, $3, $4);’ because if your count is off you end up sending in a bad bug report to one of the industry leaders in computer graphics which is kind of embarrassing.
That may be true for billing, but Hetzner killed all access to my dedicated server on a weekday afternoon and when I reached out to them within 30 min, the response was “it was done by the networking department, I can’t do anything about it, but they’ll look into it tomorrow..” .. :|
