I'm convinced that splitting out management logic and pipewire-pulse was the wrong choice so far for desktops. It exposes regular users to the failure modes of race conditions (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=438565#c21, likely https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/wireplumber/-/issues..., https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/-/issues/24...) and inscrutable wireplumber "100% CPU burning" bugs deep in Lua interpreter call stacks, as the price of complexity which only benefits complex users like cars.
money is downstream of power. far, far downstream. shuffle the money around, they'll win it all back +interest in less than a generation. eliminate the money entirely, they will change their operations over to a different status marker, which will become the de-facto currency in-turn. contrary to the marxist lie, there is no political answer--especially in a democracy. the only effective counter is the personal one: self-control, self-denial, the way of the boycott & doing more with less. of the thousands of talking heads we have today, cathy fitts is the only one smart enough to understand this.
Just trying to get my router set up to use QUIC for http 3.

I thought this would be easier, I guess I could look into opening my router up a bit, but security isn't optional.
I also find jesters and clowns hilarious as well. Some of them don't need to dress up, but just love to professionally complain and grift on top of another grift and point fingers at everyone being an extreme crypto supporter.

Eventually, they will give up just like the other critics did and it will be on to the next one.

Ask HN: What are your thoughts about the looming EU energy crisis?
I am a EU citizen living in the EU. The futures for gas an electricity for the next few years are eye-watering: https://twitter.com/JavierBlas/status/1562821466198278153.

A Belgian PM said the next 5-10 years are going to be tough: https://markets.businessinsider.com/news/stocks/belgium-pm-next-5-10-winters-will-be-difficult-as-energy-crisis-persists-1031704120.

US navy to replace touchscreen controls following NTSB investigation
On August 21st, 2017, the USS John S. McCain collided with the Alnic MC, a Liberian oil tanker, off the coast of Singapore. The report provides a detailed overview of the actions that led to the collision: when crew members tried to split throttle and steering control between consoles, they lost control of the ship, putting it into the path of the tanker. The crash killed 10 sailors and injured 48 aboard the McCain.

Unpopular opinion, but they should ban all new touch screen controls on all new vehicles built past the year 2025.
Japan focused on solid fuels because they needed to build rockets that were impractical enough to not be usable as ICBMs.

Information hoarding leads to internal empire building. In a startup this is absolutely deadly. I've experienced this personally twice before learning my lesson to be careful surrounding this point.

The Los Angeles watershed already extends 1,500 miles eastward, to the eastern front of the Rocky Mountains.

If you look at a population map of the Western US --- generally west of the 100th parallel --- what you're looking at is a political power map represented as the function of urban areas to secure water rights within an otherwise arid landscape.

You might be surprised to learn that all fresh water was in fact rain on someones property. Rainfall is the water in streams and rivers. I'm not sure what logic allows illegal use of rainwater but doesn't allow illegal use of lake water.
The "marketplace" concept seems to be a recipe for disaster. It's basically leasing out your legitimacy and goodwill as a vendor to businesses that wouldn't be able to pull off their own ecommerce experience.

As others have said, when something goes wrong, they're not going to remember "Oh, marketplace seller biteme42069 was a rip-off, avoid them", they'll just blame Walmart.

It's funny-- Amazon has managed to so squander their reputation that Walmart-- once the epitome of schlocky retail-- had managed to look decent by comparison. They had a strong enough nationwide logistics network that they could challenge the "but-but Prime 7-minute delivery" argument, and the direct nanufacturer connections to ensure they had authentic, controlled inventory. They could have been a more trustworthy choice.
I added a new feature: Allsearch Rules. Similar to !bangs, it allows the user to define rules that will automatically launch certain macros or engines based on strings in your search. Rules also allow you to replace certain strings with other strings (so, for example, @r can be replaced with site:foo.com).

Also added in the ability to import and export your Allsearch config.
But that is what happens, when you use the icloud backup. You log in, you you create a new passcode, and the app automatically looks in your icloud folder for a backup, then restores it automatically. There is no account creation involved in the process. What you are asking for already exists.

What you are asking for is the manual backup you create to automatically restore.

I used vim years ago, and the list looks like it was written then.

e.g. the package management. vim-plug seems fine, it seems odd to me to mention the others. (Pathogen's readme now mentions that it recommends vim's built-in package management. Vundle and neoplug haven't had a commit in years).

In terms of vim distributions, https://github.com/SpaceVim/SpaceVim probably deserves a mention, as inspired by the popular Spacemacs.

It'd probably be worth mentioning NeoVim.

Don’t worry about leaks. At this stage, nobody else cares about you.

But what you should really worry about is risk appetite. Your employees will have different appetite for risk to you. That’s why you’re a founder and they are not.

That’s neither good nor bad. It just is.

Be conscious if this when you share things. Even if you can control the message, different people will respond to events differently.

For example:

- You have 6 months of expenses worth of of cash in the bank, and you are spending 110% of MRR each month. Is that plenty of runway, or not much at all? The answer depends on risk appetite.

- You decide to bid on a contract that’s way beyond your current product’s feature set. If you win the pilot you’ll need to build a stack of features fast and might neglect other customers while you do. Is that exciting or awful? Depends who you ask.

- You turn down an acquisition offer. If you accepted, the other 6 folks could have each put a deposit on a nice house. But you believe you could be 10x bigger than the offer. Will everyone else share this belief or would they rather cash out? Depends on their… you guessed it.

If you have a GPU with >4GB of VRAM and you want to run this locally, here's a fork of the Stable Diffusion repo with a convenient web UI:

https://github.com/hlky/stable-diffusion

It supports both txt2img and img2img. (Not affiliated.)

Edit: Incidentally, I tried running it on a CPU. It is possible, but it took 3 minutes instead of 10 seconds to produce an image. It also required me to hack up the script in a really gross way. Perhaps there is a script somewhere that properly supports this.
Is there a tutorial on how to run this on Paperspace?
I use them and have no issues, but some editors don’t respect symlinks when making backups when you’ve opened the symlink (Rename existing file, make new file with the old name, and now the symlink is renamed and subsequent updates are unlinked as well).

Thanks for the links and the nomenclature.

Not a bad way to go, but it's always so sad because these kinds of fatalities always seem to have been avoidable.
I just don't understand what we're talking about here. The source article doesn't say that anyone has stalked him, surveilled him, or threatened him. His complaints are that someone said he's "inciting violence" when that's not an accurate characterization of his perspective, and that someone said he works for an organization he doesn't work for. In the US neither of these things are a big deal and could not be a criminal issue.

Again, I do understand that the stakes are higher in the kind of country where people are routinely lynched for blasphemy. But I don't think it's a lack of cultural sensitivity or some blindness to consequences that stops Twitter from applying different standards here! Most Pakistanis would not, I think, appreciate being told that because they live in the wrong country Twitter won't let them speak so freely.
Hey, we use logical replication on RDS. Never considered pglogical. Do you have a link to Amazon’s recommendation of pglogical?
First of all, why would an authoritarian government want an impartial moderating office for media in their country? If anything, I expect Pakistan to soon demand government control over censoring Twitter, not the other way arpund.

Second of all, Twitter is a bit player in media. Comparing it to McDonald's is absurd. If we were talking about Facebook, this may be a different matter.

Third of all, government relation to media is significantly different to government's relationship to beef. There is no government in the world that wants a bad beef industry, but many many governments that actively want a biased media industry, and are more than willing to sacrifice monetary concerns to achieve this goal. Countries much smaller (at least in population) than Pakistan have actively kicked out platforms like Twitter - see Russia for example.

I will say it again: it is not realistic to expect a foreign media platform to fight government propaganda inside an authoritarian country. Twitter is not the BBC or Reuters, and even those places don't often try to publish in authoritarian countries.

Ask HN: How can I do to land my first scrum master job?
Hi,
I've been looking to land my first job as Junior Scrum Master (is a Junior Master an oxymoron?) but I have been unlucky on my search.
I'm exposed to the day to day meetings from a dev perspective as my partner is a dev.
I did study Scrum master and then got a certification from scrum.org and they study and then pass without reading the test for SAFE dev (partner had to do it so I use the practice test as gauge bar), then pay for the SAFE scrum master course and pass the test again without reading.
I've been searching for a position using job boards like indeed, dice, and applying via staffing agencies for months (around 5) with no luck, not even a single email for a follow up interview.

As background I have a bachelor degree on psychology, and a master in logistics.
I migrated to USA so I have a job gap of 2 years, and before that on my country I did also have a gap of around 8 months after a layoff from a very big telco, I used to work in the logistics department.

How can I do to land my first scrum master job?
Any recommendations?
Email on my profile.

I think retargeting makes it worth a lot more. Airfare is low-margin, but hotels are much higher margin. I could see knowing you're traveling to X be surprisingly valuable because you can show users targeted hotel ads when they're likely looking for hotels.
How is it selfish? SLS is a tremendous waste of resources and talent. A "successful" launch means that it will continue to waste resources and talent for many more years; a failure means there's some chance we can cut our losses.
Lack of money and time. I have schizoaffective disorder and the medicine for it makes me very drowsy. So I sleep a lot and lose time. I am on disability for it, because nobody wants to hire me for my mental illness I cannot hide.
This would be a very different forum if the only things we discussed were the bare necessities of life.

Anyways I'm not irritated. This conversation was started because I asked what the good reasons behind obvious design issues are. So far the conversation has been about how you can work around them. That's great, but not the point.
Maybe someday :-) If I ever focus on one subject long enough for a book...

Really? Maybe you missed the recurrent theme on HN, that of disruption of bloated and inefficient legacy companies that should be dead already but government subsidies keep them afloat. And they innovate precisely as if they have zero skin in the game.

I completely agree; the biggest issues on my issue tracker regard better labeling the site and making a more explanatory homepage.
You create terms split by the character in the top left, and then (ideally), learn teaches them to you.

e.g.

do, act, drive ago, agere, egi, actus

love, like amo, amare, amavi, amatus

dare audeo, audere, ausus sum

hear audio, audire, audivi, auditus

fall, perish cado, cadere, cecidi, casus

sing, sound cano, canere, cecini, cantus

You first get multiple choice questions, then short answer questions. Later, we want it to show you the flashcards first so you don't have to read through a boring list of terms. Critically, it keeps you from learning more than five novel terms in a row, which is proven to help immensely compared to flashcards.

I agree with you. I’m currently in the process of developing a app aimed partially at an educator / student crowd, and partially at a general audience of people who are obsessed with words & dictionaries. My app is almost the poster child of generic iOS interfaces.

It’s not released yet, but my beta testers seem to love it. Most of them are non-technical. I haven’t written the on boarding stuff yet but the generic UI/UX means they get up to speed quickly even without a tutorial. I’ve received considerable praise for how intuitive it is.

It’s developed in SwiftUI. My first time working on iOS. My experience is similar to others. 75% of the time, it’s a joy to use. 25% is spent pulling my hair out over internal bugs and bad documentation.

Dumb question: what make this domain “Web3”?
How many people do you know have tried it? How many clinical studies have there been on this? How many people have tried it And it worked?

How many people know that it might take up to 240 mg of zinc sulfate for a week to correct this? How many people are taking way too small doses of any of the supplements to make a difference?

The fact that it is the simple is what is causing people to overlook it as a possibility. If you can come up with a better sourced reason why this is happening to people I’d be interested to hear it.

There’s nothing in the material I presented that is false. But yet you can’t believe it.

Make that two somebodies. I'm a huge space fan, follow everything worth following, and grew up with the Shuttle program, which was amazing despite its many, many flaws.

I'll be watching tomorrow morning hoping for a spectacular explosion that takes out ground facilities along with the rocket. Perhaps then the ensuing government finger-pointing will expose this mess for what it really is -- a poorly conceived, incredibly expensive jobs program masquerading as a "moon rocket".

People have made the inevitable comparisons to SpaceX's Superheavy/Starship, and there have naturally been responses pointing out that Starship is far from proven. That's absolutely right, but think about this: If SpaceX never reuses a single nut, bolt, or hunk of stainless steel, SH/Starship is by far the better launch system. Fully expendable, it would cost somewhere in the range of 10-25% of an SLS launch, while delivering something like twice the payload to orbit.

I'm super-excited about the growing enthusiasm for going back to the moon, landing on Mars, building larger and more capable orbital installations, and who knows what else. SLS enables none of that. It is both too expensive, and too rare, to be a part of any effective program. By merely existing, SLS sucks money out of other programs that could show real results.

I promise you this: If we go back to the moon with SLS, it will make Apollo look like the better program. That, in spite of 50+ years of technological advancement. I'd rather sit here on earth than let our spacefaring dreams die that way. The other day I turned 50, which means I'm too young to remember any of the moon landings. If we rely on SLS now, it's unlikely that I'll live to see the next attempts.
I remember reading a collection first hand accounts from Germans taken after the war, and one thing that stuck with me was genuine shock from the Germans that the Americans landing on DDay didn't even bother to bring horses with them.
But do they really need some kind of elaborate fingerprint-and-retarget scheme when they've already got your name, address, credit card, and possibly passport details?
Why stop at grapefruit juice? I've heard citrus juice can have unpredictable effects on any drug.

Yeah, allocations were reduced after months of negotiations prompting a ton of teeth gnashing. Tijuana, for instance, gets almost all of its water from the Colorado River and is already subject to water outages.

We all need to look for ways to cut usage, including passing the true costs on to agriculture.

Agreed.
I mean, they're using as much water as they want now. The difference is that they'd actually pay a high price for it.
Ask HN: What should I know returning to dev teams for the first time in 7 yrs?
The first couple years of my career were relatively normal. Full-time software development work involving teams, not always local or in-house teams, but I had at least a couple of other engineers to work with. After 2015 work was sparse. I couldn't catch a break most of the time with interviews and had to settle for solo freelance work to tide me over. It helps fill a few holes in unemployment, though.

However, I am always applying to full-time jobs, and want to know what to expect going back to work with a team of developers.

My past team experiences:

There was no unit testing and engineers weren't really expected to own their testing. The philosophy in every workplace I've been was "that's what manual QA is for". I hear manual QA testing is on the decline- is this true?

Code commits are like throwing an update over a wall and let the lead developer worry about it. You submit a PR and lead reviews your code. No automated CI as far as I know.

In fact I don't recall anything that was heavily automated. There was not a lot of big oversight with the dev process as everyone above senior or lead level was completely non-technical.

When off-shore devs were involved it was usually handled poorly. A miss in communication could mean losing a day of work because one overseas dev might accidentally un-do the merge by the time we step into work in the morning.
How does one come across one of these pre-bunkings in the wild?
The prices should not go up a lot, because if they did, farming would become unprofitable.

E.g., tomato farming produces around $4000 worth of produce per acre and year[0], and requires 2.5 feet applied water. ($4000/acre)/(2.5 feet) = 0.5 cents/gallon. If the water got that expensive they'd need to stop growing tomatoes, since just the water would already cost more than the produce would be worth.

By contrast, residential water is 0.7 cents per gallon[1], so the prices involved are really tiny compared to what human users are already paying.
