FWIW I’ve had a blast with GFN, but I have fiber internet and use a wired Ethernet connection to the router. It’s not very good over wifi IMO. I would recommend it but only for those with great bandwidth and a wired connection.
Lots of highly opinionated clickwarriors in this comments section. Free time brought to you, almost certainly, by having relatively few kids.
I found that it worked really well on the free tier. There are hiccups and i can’t tell why my isp gives me 1-5% packet loss but I really like that it kicks me out after an hour so I have to have reasonable play sessions. Wait times are rare the service is too good for a free tier
I can find no evidence that DDG is not run by spammers. Any claim that it is not is clearly what would demand solid evidence.
Its a bomb solution and available today! https://youtu.be/oPQjXLry4X8
Even if they do server-side profiling, they can only track you on duckduckgo.com. Last I checked, DDG did not also own an analytics service that has infested half the world's websites.
I’m honestly not sure what you are referring to as the contrary or contradiction here. The referenced help page is the most complete explanation of how our news rankings work. Put another way, what would it take to convince you?
> I can only assume that the bug classes you are referring to would have been eliminated by using essentially any language with a type system.

That's not entirely true. As an easy example, Go has a type system but it's relatively anaemic and recreates the "billion dollar mistake" of nil. I have personal experience with Go applications that have broken in production due to nil dereferences, to bugs related to type-switching off `interface{}`, and to the language's inability to enforce exhaustive case statements in general.

While the unique safety features in Rust are generally about memory safety, it still takes a much more safety-conscious approach in general than most languages that are statically typed.
> Uh, no? This is managed policy, and this is a 100% good way of letting the user know that someone else has control of their settings

So Google's defaults are "un-managed" and imply no control over users' settings?

Why shouldn't the Google built Chrome binaries display the same warning and a binary from a specific linux distro should?
It's a pattern, but definitely not dark or undisclosed.

The system and rationale are explained in the HN FAQ and repeatedly reiterated by the mods.

i.e This is one of the things HN gives back to YC, for funding it.

Compared to online advertising, jobs posts targeted at a technical audience seems like a reasonable trade.
Oh boy, never learn about BGP and you'll be much happier.
really arbitrary moderation imho
What is "force posting"?
That's not how the burden of proof works here.
Yup, same here. Pool all your money and don’t care who it came from.
Yeah, I wish it was only America, but the UK have their own antivaxx propagandists. What's the motivation behind this anyways?
Aren't there other topics to make money off off, like spreading flat earth information?
It's better if you have Ethernet, that way I get no stutter and the lag is almost unnoticeable (I get 9ms ping which is lower than the duration between 2 monitor refreshes at 60Hz)
And you can extrapolate this correlation between energy consumption and Bitcoin price into the idea that a Bitcoin represents some unit of energy.

I wonder if there's a graph anywhere showing the value of 1 BTC in kWh.
> that discourages housing as investment if we are to maintain housing as shelter.

There’s a difference between owning two properties and owning a fund of thousands of homes (PE and REITs). The former is fine, the latter should be banished
We share money. It's not "mine" or "hers", it's "ours". That works for us, but I can see why it might not work for everyone.
I don't understand why people don't want more proliferation. It would make world safer. Just imagine if Afganistan and Iraq could have delivered a nuke to USA soil.
I hate that some universities teach dynamically typed languages as first language in their curriculum. I think for CS students the first language should be as "strict" (not in the mathematical sense) as possible, so the student is forced to think very carefully what is going where. This is of course a controversial opinion, especially among proponents of SICP (which is, in my opinion, not a good book for beginners. Yes, downvote me).

(Obviously, I am talking about CS students here, not about the general public who just want to learn what writing a program means)
Forget little bugs... the big picture is far more important. I cannot recommend anyone use this product given recent (years) inattention.

Since you work for Heroku / Salesforce, letting your users know if this is a dead product or not would be a good first step. If not dead, explain why there have been no updates and what is to be expected moving forward.
On the other hand a computer/car/house can also be 10 years old but not 0

Really? When I buy a new PC, to me it will get 1 year old only after a year. Before that it is just NEW. Is that what you meant?
> As in, "we have a PHP monolith used by all of 12 people in the accounting department, and for some reason we've been tasked with making it run on multiple machines ("for redundancy" or something) by next month.

Usually, your monolith has these components: a web server (apache/nginx + php), a database, and other custom tooling.

> Where would someone start ?

I think a first step is to move the database to something managed, like AWS RDS or Azure Managed Databases. Herein lies the basis for scaling out your web tier later. And here you will find the most pain because there are likely: custom backup scripts, cron jobs, and other tools that access the DB in unforeseen ways.

If you get over that hump you have done your first big step towards a more robust model. Your DB will have automated backups, managed updates, rollover, read replicas etc. You may or may not see a performance increase, because you effectively split your workload across two machines.

_THEN_ you can front your web tier with a load balancer, i.e. you load balance to one machine. This gives you: better networking, custom error pages, support for sticky sessions (you likely need them later), and better/more monitoring.

From thereon you can start working on removing those custom scripts of the web tier machine and start splitting this into an _actual_ load-balanced infrastructure, going to two web-tier machines, where traffic is routed using sticky-sessions.

Depending on the application design you can start introducing containers.

Now, this approach will not give you a _cloud-native awesome microservice architecture_ with CI/CD and devops. But it will be enough to have higher availability and more robust handling of the (predictable) load in the near future. And on the way, you will remove bad patterns that eventually allow you to go to a better approach.

I would be interested in hearing if more people face this challenge. I don't know if guides exist around this on the webs.
That is really not true. For most people modest speed connections are fine for working. Starlink certainly be sufficient in general.
Whatever drug the anti-war crowd was going to use was going to get banned by Nixon.

“You understand what I’m saying? We knew we couldn’t make it illegal to be either against the war or black, but by getting the public to associate the hippies with marijuana and blacks with heroin. And then criminalizing both heavily, we could disrupt those communities,” Ehrlichman said. “We could arrest their leaders. raid their homes, break up their meetings, and vilify them night after night on the evening news. Did we know we were lying about the drugs? Of course we did.”

- Nixon domestic policy chief John Ehrlichman
> You have no authority over someone else's body. It sucks, but it's reality.

That's obviously untrue. For example the state claims the right to confine (and sometimes even execute) the body of people convicted of murder. And most people are ok with that.

Where the line is, is of course a complicated question, but the absolute version where the state cannot ever control people at all, is obviously false.
What do you mean “compared to online advertising”? It is online advertising lmao.
sorry man i shouldntve said some of that, i got kinda hot under the collar cause the constant "you're a puritan" pisses me off after seing so many friends struggle with it. i'll proofread before posting.
I think I see what you're saying, and in my idea I'm suggesting the same - sending the function(s) to the data.

I was having some issues with a Dell 4320 (?) and one of the things Dell support suggested was updating the firmware (download from Dell website). That was the first time I'd ever heard of updating firmware in a monitor.
I'm in Brooklyn by prospect park and only have 1 ISP choice for my apartment. And it's coax based, so every plan caps at 20Mbs upload. It's that or satellite internet. I miss having fiber.
At our last startup we told people during the first interview that if they joined it would be the hardest they'd ever worked in their life. Some people opted out. Some people were excited and energized by the challenge. I don't see what's wrong with there being more than one company culture in the world. Not everyone wants to work at Google.

I wouldn't actually do that again, my views have evolved a bit, but I don't regret it.
Similar situation in our household. The only potential issue that could have come up is if one of us would have to relocate due to a potential career move and the other would have to follow and potentially hurt their own career. But due to the rise of remote work in recent years I doubt this would ever come up.
Love this in concept, but life turns out to be complicated over the long term. It's easy to say it's "our" money when you both agree on the same goals and life trajectory, but people have a propensity for change. In 10 years, what if your life goals start diverging? Will it still be "our" money?

This isn't a personal question for you, but more something to consider even for myself. I love simplicity and I love trust. But through the years I've experienced relationships that transform from pure love and admiration to pure confusion and being on completely different pages. This may be because I'm young, and maybe relationships become more straightforward later in life. But something tells me people never become less complicated, maybe they just become more complacent.

That all being said, I recognize that sometimes overthinking or planning for the worst can be a form of self-sabotage. By you trusting your partner with the things most important to you, including money, you are creating a stronger bond by laying it all out on the table and working as a single unit towards your life goals.
IANAL, but isn't there a law about online ads similar to what you mention? But then again job postings probably aren't typically considered ads...
The primary thing that happened is the rise and power of the catholic church, which saw the "direct" spiritual experience offered by psilocybin mushrooms and other psychedelic plants as a threat to their gatekeeping role and violently stamped out knowledge and use of such substances.

Similarly, the moral panic about psychedelics was because it threatened vested business and corporate interests (and the economic war with communism), especially when slogans such as "Turn on, tune in, drop out" because associated with them.
I feel like it's better, they must have boosted the transmit power or something - it was basically unusable, so they probably had no choice. I can use them in that spot now anyway.
Uhh I'm not even married and reading this feels like more of a self-report than anything. Caring about money (which has fundamentally no real value - "I've never seen a Brinks truck follow a hearse") more than your partner is a huge red flag and like another commenter said, there are only a few likely outcomes from where you are right now. Best of luck to you.
I wonder how much energy is wasted by transmitting and storing messages of users complaining about Bitcoin's energy usage.
The reason they were banned from Harvard is (allegedly) mainly because the researchers were having sex with the undergrads, not because Leary was telling kids to drop out. IIRC it was Andrew Weil who wrote the article about it in the crimson.
I’m surprised their lawyers don’t understand this. Sanctions are not a thing that you get a alerted to. You need to follow who and what is sanctioned and bake compliance into your entire company when handling money.
Take the same mentality and apply it to the politics today; gets interesting. What’s being vilified? What are the associates that may or may not be factual? Everything is propaganda
What’s more mind boggling to me is Americans driving around with freedom written on our big ol trucks but we’re not legally allowed to take…a mushroom. The cognitive dissonance is huge.
I'm not "hyperventilating", I am attempting to answer your question...no need to be rude. Clearly it's a matter of opinion about where the line of "dark pattern" starts.
Poll: How do you use/understand the term “open source”?
This gets argued on here not uncommonly, and I'm curious what the community thinks. I tried to capture the main differences I hear talked about.
I use the OSI definition
Open/free for non-commercial use is enough
Source-available is enough
I'm Richard Stallman and have some obscure complaint
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31190064 explains it well:

> The GPL is a copyright license. It applies when copyright law would otherwise prevent distributing some program. If I were to violate the GPL, for example by sending someone a compiled version and refusing to provide the source, then there's a clear legal theory by which copyright law could be applied.

> That "one added requirement" in the AGPL turns it into a EULA, because it's an attempt to regulate for which purposes a user may run the program. If I were to run a modified AGPL'd SSH server on my own hardware, the question of whether I'm violating the AGPL depends on whether I'm allowing others to access it remotely. If the AGPL can be violated without copyright infringement, it's clearly in a different legal category than the GPL.

My wife makes about 5-6x what I make

But I do make $200k/y

So what we do is that her money is hers and mine is mine

If she wants to spend her money on joint things like our house than that’s fine but I am clear with her whenever I won’t join those projects because I can’t afford it

It’s been working just fine

I know from friends though that it can be a issue if one of the partners has a income below a certain threshold
It's going to be incredibly hard to blind a study on psychedelics due to their unique and powerful effects... the best might be some sort of VR experience with a dissociative to mimic a psychedelic experience, but even that seems unlikely to be an effective control.
This seems like the healthiest approach I've seen so far in the thread. Honestly surprised hearing about managing incentives, and accounting for this and that. My wife and I also just have one big pot of money. We budget and spend from shared accounts and financial services. We talk through major financial moves (investments/purchases) before either executes. I cannot imagine having my life this intimately entwined with someone else, but then carving out our finances as something to keep separate and negotiate over.
> - remarkably unhelpful use of space in the inbox views,

I agree with you here. The one time we saw a progression with Google Inbox (which showed cards of events, photo-previews, etc.: https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/thumbor/vRLmb7RDrySSxylcMGIoV7dWTK8=...), it was quickly followed by a regression: they closed it, I suspect because the previews were costing them too much bandwidth. The day I see a well-made OSS replica of Google Inbox is the day I go back to doing my own email.

The components of fairer housing

- A fairer society. Yup I went there. Every other solution that tries will eventually be pulled apart by this unless the wealth gap is kept under control. This means changes to funding of courts systems, health, education, massive changes to tax system, inheritance law etc etc etc. Everything that makes people who use the term SJW scream.

- oh ok.

- sorry

- Weirdly access to mortgages is an important component - because mortgages are leveraged borrowing over 20/30 years you can front load the price of housing massively. Turns out that is a bad idea.

- land wealth tax. UK built two whole new cities after WWII by announcing 100% land tax. If you owned a field right next to that shiny new train station / school / hospital, then you know it's going to be worth a fortune once fifty houses are built on it. So you are a fool to sell it at agricultural prices. But that just means the social value that the hospital / train station creates is immediately swallowed up by private sector land deals.

If instead everyone knows that egregious profits just get taxed away, everyone settles down and does sensible prices deals, and suddenly all the future value is left in the future and not dumped into todays mortgages.

> Nope. Sorry but you don’t get to hijack the term “open source”. There’s a reason we have gone to considerable lengths to define it https://opensource.org/osd

We have a legal mechanism for dealing with this situation. They could have trademarked the term "Open Source", but that wouldn't be very open then.
I've followed other forums where company representatives can post, and I think it takes a person with an exceptional skill set to handle the comments and discussions that result. It's not a "normal" skill that I'd expect of any normal job duty, even HR or PR. So I think the proscription of comments is necessary to avoid frightening those people away. I've seen otherwise competent and articulate people get baited into losing their composure or taking the low road. Forum interaction is, for better or worse, a performance art.

Anyway, somebody can always start a thread about the same company.
What suck is what people came to do with email.

Using it as notification system? That is a big no to me.
I want to like Outlook, even on my Mac. But it doesn't handle quoting in replies the way I want it to, and I have several correspondents whose email chains get heavily into replies to replies.

I mostly use Apple Mail, which is acceptable, if not great. I guess I need to look at Thunderbird (which I haven't looked at since I've been using a Mac) and, maybe, Vivaldi.

I personally like to split up the idea. While I make the money in the household, I have the power on how I want to spend my money (I can blow all our savings on GME stocks). BUT as a couple, we both have equal say on where we are now and where we want to be. Like if my spouse wants to buy a house in five years, and I agree, then we would work towards that goal. Who makes the money doesn’t get more authority in making that decision.
Yeah, this was what I was thinking as well, but I think researchers should just accept that blinding is fundamentally impossible in studies like this:

1. With a high dose of shrooms, you're definitely going to know whether you were tripping or not.

2. If they can find another agent that mimics the effect of tripping, well then it's not really a placebo anymore.
What's really invigorated everything is cheap microcontrollers and USB/bluetooth. That lets you take your weird layout with you instead of depending on soft remapping.
Well if they do go bankrupt, I am sure we can bail them out and buy a large stake at a discounted price per share.

Is it true that the Ethereum foundation itself doesn't develop a fully usable set of clients anymore for the post-Merge network?

There seem to be only 3rd-party and seemingly commercial entities developing the "consensus" client which is needed to use the PoS network?

As a user it would be rather "meh" to not have an official client to rely on :|

See:

"Ask HN: Does the Ethereum foundation really not develop a post-Merge client?"

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32586172

TL;DR: To use the new Proof of Stake network, you'll need 2 pieces of software in parallel ("execution client" and "consensus client"). It seems only one of those is developed by the Ethereum foundation - implementations of the other one are only developed by various seemingly commercial entities.
Obligatory, there are a lot of memes on this subject:

Actually yes. Gpu miners undervolt their cards these days and mining is a consistent load on the cards.

The mining cards experience less stress and wear compared to gaming.
