> the only working federated protocol

Even if you're going to discount HTTP, DNS, and IRC for failing to meet various criteria from some definition of "federated", I think we mustn't overlook Matrix here.

Sure, you can claim that email is the most popular working federated protocol, or the oldest, or the best, and you could make some weird restriction like "only popular federated store-and-forward protocol", but I'm not sure if that's a helpful distinction.

The rest of what you say makes perfect sense though, thank you.
Even as a regular consumer I see the benefit. I buy a new game, and its typically something like 100GB. Gigabit internet is the difference between waiting 15 minutes and 1 hour to play my new game. This is not an uncommon use case and the difference is quite large.
You need to look up what surrogacy means. The surrogate women is doing the "pregnancy" part, with prior agreement and IVF from a different couple.
When I started using the xbox cloud gaming, I thought it was wishful thinking, a gimmick. Boy was I wrong. It's absolutely mind blowing.

You do notice artefacts when you move fast in FPS type games but you even forget about it most of the time (fully wired internet) as it mostly occurs on the orbits of the screen, where you don't necessarily focus. For most games it's hard to notice unless you look for it.
A 'dark pattern' presumes intent to deceive. Here it is pretty much the opposite:

Hackernews started out as a way for YC to talk to their would-be founders (it was called 'start-up news' originally) and the rest of the postings are the noise and those are the signal. If you are unaware of the relationship between YC and HN you could be forgiven but after more than a decade here I don't think that excuse holds.

Marking job ads more explicitly won't change anything, it is just a way to pressure YC into making some change to satisfy nit pickers and there is far more important stuff to do, and is as far as I'm concerned off-topic given that the question was 'why can't we comment on these postings' and that question has been answered afaic.

Furthermore: the who is hiring threads are there as well for everybody else as well, which given the audience and the fact that these compete directly with YC funded companies should be proof positive that no malicious intent was ever present. If it were then those threads would have never happened.
A dark pattern has nothing to do with whether they're justified in doing it (for instance, because this is a free site). The submissions could be marked with "YC Sponsored Post" they're still totally justified in doing it, but it would be less of a dark pattern than it is now.
I'm worried enough that I just run my own services on hardware I own. My data center could shut down sure, but I would be informed, and come retrieve my hardware and find another site to host it.

Things could be destroyed, but I'm currently linking into an extra colo facility. 1U of rack space is very cheap, and I've replaced several paid services this way. all in all I'm saving money I think.

The most irritating thing about these suites, is often they know setting the IP lawyers on them costs more than the claims. However, if you have an extra $60k in tax deductions to burn, than enjoy the show with popcorn.

Well they already sort of did, but that was 10 years ago, when the Internet looked very differently and they were in a different position.

Today they don't just have legal concerns, they arguably have to worry about regulation as well.
Steam games is the biggest benefit I saw. Modern games are in the tens to hundreds of GB now so gigabit internet is the difference between waiting 15 minutes and 1 hour.
>But of course if you used it with a PS4 then you didn't have any way to do that and just had to suffer this stutter every 20 seconds.

If we all could spend a million on lawsuits… dunno if that is good.
There are two sides to every trade. Who would be willing to give up their BTC and ETH for banned Tether?
Happened to me for no reason I could discern at all, twice. If you have anything important tied to it, I'd worry. Better still, put your actually important stuff on an account that you pay for somewhere else.
I can't recall a single 502 response that I've ever gotten from DDG, but plenty of them for presearch, to say nothing of their closed-source node software. I enjoy advocating new tech as much as the next person, but not "route searches through who knows what, and only respond to queries some of the time" worth
I do this, too, especially for pedestrians in crosswalks but also for cyclists and other motorists. The funny thing is I've never seen anyone else do it, yet everyone I point at always seems to immediately understand.
Check out the roadmap.
What do you consider "high-level code" and in what way does deeply understanding how a computer works influence your approach?
I see lot of people get around this by purchasing their own domain and using a service like Fastmail. In theory you can switch all of the pieces (domain registration, DNS, and email provider) at will as there are many alternatives available for each piece.

I'd like to go this route as well. I've got a domain and Fastmail checks all the boxes for me, but inertia is a powerful thing.
Debian just didn’t adjust the defaults correctly.
The patent in the complaint doesn't even have anything to do with what we do as a company! It describes a system that calls 911 when it detects a crash (like onstar). Ignore the (very generic) title and read on in the actual patent. https://portal.unifiedpatents.com/patents/patent/10454707

We write open source ADAS software, and it doesn't have any functionality like that: https://github.com/commaai/openpilot

But for the purposes of attempting to extract a settlement, it doesn't matter. It will only matter after a long and expensive trial.

(I would like to invalidate the patent entirely, which several of their patents already have been. But even if it is valid, it also has to apply to us)
Meanwhile in both India[1] and China[2] (two biggest countries by Internet users count) IPv6 is mandated by the national policy. Everyone else should do that, otherwise the transition would never be finished. ISPs and other network businesses should be forced to do upgrades by the law or policy, otherwise they will never allocate budget and resources for that.

To make the parallel clear:

If Russia executed people that were waging war against Russia from within the US, that the US had already convicted of making war on Russia, was the US also trying to capture or kill at the same time?

I'd expect the US government to say "thank you".
Use any IRC client - I use MIRC on Windows.

Join a good IRC network - I use Abjects. Subscribe to the shows and movies you want to automatically download, one of their bots sends you files as they are posted. Write a script to copy them to the appropriate folder that Plex monitors.
I agree with both of you, I don't want to feel compelled to attend to my boss' emotional needs. My OP was more how to gauge my reaction if my boss broke down in front of me (during a layoff or no).
Have you tried talking to the TikTok generation? They don't do email. Most don't even sign into the email clients on their phones.
I'm a mathematician too, and it doesn't make sense to me. It seems somewhat arbitrary depending on the application, i.e. I think it is a type problem. We use an Int to mean something special about array elements. I'd be happier with first() and last() methods really, I don't care for coming up with meanings based on implementation details.
Is the US racist against all the Yemeni people and government who also wanted him dead?
>Who are all of these people who struggle with email?

The default outlook app is terrible. It keeps hiding important emails from me and putting unimportant ones front and center. It's bad enough I use thunderbird exclusively to manage those mail boxes and read emails only on the desktop/laptop.
Agreed. After spending the better part of a decade watching Hibernate a) fail to scale or b) get confused beyond a third level of association, I find myself writing bare SQL and/or refactoring to implement the repository model. ORMs are great for prototyping or if your data model is simple; beyond that you're better off without them.
This is also why nvidia should just give a Linux machine mode as well. No licensing fees, let people play whatever they want.

Since this "premine" (the 59%) was really a token sale, I don't think it's too problematic (mining is buying tokens with electricity/hardware).
When you say you’d lose 1M before paying a trash human 10k and mean it, I’m cool with it.
Nothing goes through decades of testing, they go through human trials and then monitor safety at a mass scale for a year or two and then they're done. Same as with the covid vaccines.
Let's be generous and assume that we need far more reach than what is realistic in this scenario, take it at 10km between the subscriber demarc and the CO where these connections would presumably be terminated. A 10km LR optic is only $27 [0]. Amortize that over, say, three years and that's $0.75 per port, multiplied by two, so call it $1.50 per port/month over three years. Scantly driving up the cost per port. The physical fiber linking the two ends is more expensive (though you could depreciate and amortize over a longer period of time).

The 25G optics are barely that much more, LR/10km for $59 a pop. [1]

Okay so how do you solve for calendar <-> inbox integration?
I don't necessarily disagree, but playing devil's advocate:

What about ill-informed, irresponsible adults? 30% of Americans believe in astrology [1]. A growing number are anti-vaxers.

The number of people that believe some amount of utterly batshit things is not small!
I don't know what a book could do for you, as it would be too literal/linear regardless of the meta. What I do know is that understanding sarcasm requires critically evaluating everything you take in, and being keenly aware of the context around it. (Hence it being good to tag impersonal written communication - if we were meatspace friends you'd already have a strong assumption that I wasn't a Ma Bell lobbyist drone). And hearing corporate marketing speak parodied sardonically makes you less likely to just accept it when you're earnestly inundated with it. I'd also say this topic is closely related to "security thinking" where one critically examines the converse/implication of every statement.
>>>If states make a regulation that cannot be shown to be more effective because it's administered at the state level rather than the county or city or neighborhood level, it should be struck down.

I propose we create federal legislation that food companies need to label their food with their exact ingredients. According to this comment, this regulation will be struck down until it can "be shown to be more effective because it's administered at the [federal] level rather than the county or city or neighborhood level". How is "it should be struck down" different than "it is bad"? Because I read it as you saying this regulation is bad until I can prove it is necessary to happen at the federal level.

>regulation should be questioned... What is the alternative? We accept all regulation without any criteria as to whether it's effective, correctly made, or minimal in scope?

I'm not arguing that regulation needs to go unquestioned. I said in my first comment that there is both good and bad regulation. The alternative approach is that we don't have some universal rule like you are suggesting and instead judge regulation on a case by case basis. Like I said in my first comment, the answer to bad regulation is good regulation. Your stance still seems to that the answer to bad regulation is no regulation.
Even in the worst case scenario you propose, where DuckDuckGo is deliberately lying and collecting more information than they claim and where those clickthrough requests are sending as much information as is possible for them to send, this is still exposing you to way less risk than Google Analytics.

It is still, I would claim, objectively more private to use DuckDuckGo than Google even in a world where they are lying about their privacy policies, purely because DuckDuckGo does not have the same surveillance scope and level of infrastructure as Google.

And that's really what we're arguing about here, unless you have a more private alternative to DuckDuckGo that has been subject to more rigorous audits and can scale to support being the default search engine for a bunch of nontechnical users?
Maybe the problem is that culturally, email is treated like face-to-face talking. We often talk to each other just to be pleasant. It wouldn't be weird for someone to remind you about a meeting if they saw you, or to ask if you're going to the company picnic. Actually, it would be weirder if they just posted it on the calendar and said nothing else.

So, maybe email clients aren't the issue, people are the issue (like most problems).
+1 for Xbox Cloud.

Easy to use and the games are already there. I am not a gamer anymore, I occasionally play here and there, perhaps couple hours once or twice a week. Sometimes nothing for days, then a Saturday playing 6 hours.

One thing that Xbox Cloud did for me is to eliminate buyers remorse or thinking I have to try a game a little bit more because I paid money for it. If I don't like something, I just move to the next - in fact, sometimes I think that's actually _too_ easy and I wonder if I stick for a while the gameplay won't actually get better.

Anyway, for $15 a month you have an Xbox ready in 10 seconds and dozens (hundreds?) of games at your fingertips... the value is ridiculously high. I can't see myself actually buying a console and paying $10-$60 for just one single game.

edit: Think about it: you have $60 and a game you want to play is on Xbox Cloud. You can either buy the game (supposing you already have the console) or have access to ALL of cloud games for 4 months. It's a no-brainer!

Also when I have bouts of extended hours at work or when I travelled to Brazil to stay there for a few weeks with my family, I just cancelled the membership and re-started it later. It's so convenient.
They totally managed it in the video rental days though. There were no exclusives then, at least not where I lived.
You may be interested in the Curry-Howard correspondence https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curry–Howard_correspondence

Tactics can be thought of functions that manipulate proof contexts (e.g. sequent calculi https://encyclopediaofmath.org/wiki/Gentzen_formal_system). Tactical proof is like imperative programming where one specifies explicitly how a proof should be constructed. Ideally we want to move towards declarative proofs, where one specifies lemmas that can be checked automatically. To be exact, suppose H1, ..., Hn are hypotheses (including known axioms and theorems), we want to derive Th by finding a sequence of propositions L1 ... Lm (=Th) such that L_(i+1) can be derived automatically from the hypotheses plus L1 through Li.
Yes, those are much harder to deal with because we can't simply switch them off—other than disabling replies, which I don't want to do because most replies are good faith questions.

I've even written code to specifically monitor all the replies that get posted in those threads, but it still requires moderator review energy—a scarce commodity if ever there was one.
The well known “Numerical Recipes in C 2nd ed.” talks about how the first edition promoted exactly this - offset the pointer after allocation and you can use any indexing origin you want. And they promoted 1-indexing and wrote all the algorithms as such, before switching everything to 0-indexing for the 2nd edition.

I agree with you the subtraction instruction is not exorbitant, especially considering malloc is much more expensive and always has been.

Not sure if we are going to see this in the future, but I'd love to see video streaming / content production move to 60fps. You're right that beyond 4k doesn't really give you anything but the improvement 24fps to 60 is absolutely massive.

Would also be nice to see video call apps upgrade from the absolute worst qualities to something nicer.
This. I have been facing this issue recently more and more. Account creation emails aren't arriving to my custom domain recently. Some software companies seem to not send emails to custom domains. I use a well known commercial provider with DKIM and everything setup. Yet. I am beginning to use my custom domain only for human communication and all else gets directed into Gmail.

For one brief shining moment, Google Inbox existed. It was the best mail client I've used, dating back to Eudora. Simple, focused. Not everybody liked it, but it was one of the few apps that I immediately loved, and that made me more productive.

Then Google sunsetted it, and folded some of the best features from it into Gmail.

Heads up: you don't fix an overly-complex application by adding the features from a very simple application to it.
This reminds me of a similar experience I have from a time when I was briefly working in the field on machinery containing huge (multiple megawatts) industrial motors. We had finished doing some work on the control electronics, and the plant operator warned us to turn off our laptops before he started up the main motor because he had previously noticed they would always BSoD and occasionally completely fail to boot afterwards due to disk corruption. This was in a room far from the motor, and it was not very loud even without hearing protection, but the vibration was still enough to hit a resonance in the HDD.

Of course, that was so long ago that this "CVE-chaser" culture of paranoia had not yet appeared.
I strongly recommend that you read https://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?isbn=9780674537514.

It explains the economic reasons why it is hard to get collective action to happen. It also explains why any government organization organized for collective action in time is likely to undergo regulatory capture, meaning that the people you wanted to regulate are in control of the regulations and manipulate them for their own purposes. It also studies the various approaches that have been taken to solve this, and how effective they have or haven't been.

You'll learn WHY we don't simply all self-organize to act in our collective best interest.
Not really. Input latency is what matters here. Even with great netcode, streaming games just doesn't fit certain genres.

With how many technologies get caked unto the rendering pipeline and CRTs being replaced by slower response time LCDs (unless you pay a premium), you might even argue it got worse compared to the olden days.
Not german here, this is standard and I'm a bit confused by your comment.

Comparatively, I play a fair bit on Google Stadia, a similar Gaming-in-the-cloud service powered by Google.

My experience with Stadia has been pretty great. Since November 2020 I've been playing Destiny 2, an MMO FPS, so perhaps the worst-case latency-requiring kind of game, and it's been pretty great, at least for PvE activities. (PvP has been less great, but perhaps that's more the fault of my aging reflexes than near-imperceptible network latency)

When traveling, I've been playing Destiny on Stadia on an iPad (!) with an Xbox controller paired, using the host Wifi.

That, alone, was enough to sell me on the value of Stadia. I'm gladly paying the $10/mo (half that of GeForce Now) for the Pro tier, which gives me 4k HDR, and a bunch of games free each month.

People like to harp on Stadia, and it's true that their player numbers are low. In fact, a couple of days ago Destiny announced availability on the Epic Games Store, and apparently on Day 1 the number of players via the Epic Games Store outnumbered the number of Stadia players by 10x. There was a promotion on Epic which helped, but still, 10x!

Google has certainly tarnished their brand by killing well-loved products, but I also feel like they're under-promoting what they have. For example, if I try to go to stadia.com right now from this mac/safari, I'll just get a page that says "Stadia requires Chrome", with no promotional content to entice the user.
It's pretty obvious how GP values other people vs themselves. They've stated it clearly and repeatedly.

It’s almost good enough. Much better than Stadia. I can imagine if your geographical location was close enough, and with fiber gigabit, it would be good enough to never need a gaming rig again (for noncompetitive single player gaming).
In addition to taking on and crushing patent trolls, someone needs to also go after the USPTO for causing these people/companies financial hardship by granting these bogus patents in the first place.
Any instructions on how one goes ahead and play with openai codex themselves?

As a kid I used to dream to talk to the computer and it would make code happen as a repl. This appears to be close to it.
More people commenting here need to pick up on this; this is how it's supposed to be.

The author also mentions:

> In effect, we are shifting complexity from end-developers to library developers.

This is not a valid complaint. This is obvious and self-evident; and also true for any lib developer in any language - you can't avoid it. Libraries exist to abstract away complex logic so those devs consuming the library don't have to worry about writing their own implementation - an app can delegate functionality to a library and this has the benefit of reducing the app's maintenance burden and speed up dev time by re-using another developer's work. And for lib devs, this inevitably requires they spend effort to make their library easier to use.
I feel this also follows the concept of narrowing down from a large set to a smaller set. Using FROM first is the large set and then you're selecting from it.
The devil doesn't need an advocate.

And at any rate, "illegal" is not the same as "immoral". Even if the troll's actions are within the law, in my opinion they're utterly immoral and scummy.
That doesnt disprove the point though! H1Bs congregate in specific areas, research hubs or tech hubs

> and using the same local hardware (keyboard, mouse, etc) to send the inputs, and then the same local hardware to display the server rendered output (your monitor/TV)... how can be true that GFN doesn't add at least the same input latency as running it locally?

Something is a little weird with the numbers as shown. 120hz to 60hz only gains 18ms on PC, but it gains 45ms on xbox. Presumably with the same peripherals, tv, network connection, etc. Not really sure what's going on there.
I don't think the rotational speed of the drive is that relevant; the resonance that was being excited is certainly different as otherwise the drive would've excited it via its own rotation.
