Cool, did not know that. Indeed I see this in shared/afunix.h:

#define SIO_AF_UNIX_GETPEERPID _WSAIOR(IOC_VENDOR, 256) // Returns ULONG PID of the connected peer process
#define SIO_AF_UNIX_SETBINDPARENTPATH _WSAIOW(IOC_VENDOR, 257) // Set the parent path for bind calls
#define SIO_AF_UNIX_SETCONNPARENTPATH _WSAIOW(IOC_VENDOR, 258) // Set the parent path for connect calls
// NOTE: setting the parent path is not thread safe.

SIO_AF_UNIX_GETPEERPID is something I did not know about either, although apparently a bit buggy – https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/4676

What does the "NOTE: setting the parent path is not thread safe" comment mean? Not thread safe if multiple threads are sharing the same socket? (Which seems like an acceptable limitation.) Or something worse than that?
Well, small claims is not that hard to prepare for (vs "real" claims), and you can hit them up for a few K.

But you are right, they might claim inability to pay.
Call it professional deformation, but I came into this expecting an article on the sneaky ways in which automatic janitor services can mess up a digital system. I cannot count on two hands the number of times the culprit of mysteriously disappearing records/files turned out to be an overzealous janitor service. I will try to be nicer to them next time.
Will I be allowed to watch it for free for 72 hours too?
I don't really have any trouble using Emacs on the "modern" C++ codebases that I'm working on. I've tried lsp-mode and eglot with clangd but found that really all I need is a little bit of elisp to call clang-format, dumb-jump (<https://github.com/jacktasia/dumb-jump>) to jump to definition, and project-compile to build the project and collect warnings/errors into a buffer.
I used to be able to locate the computer section of WH Smiths or John Menzies in the 1980s and go and play on the ZX Spectrums and Commodore 64s (and other oddities - the one in Arbroath had a couple of Memotech MTX512s!) by hearing the 15kHz scan line whistle from the CRT tellies they used for displays.
A lunatic web framework for the Rust language

Most reviews I read noted the terrible writing and at best mediocre acting from several of the main characters.

On a personal level i don't care much if it's true to the source material, I haven't read it. Nor do I care that there are PoC in it. I do care that it's just at best a 6/10 (maybe a charitable 7?), which hurts based on the potential it had.
It's more complex than this.

The situation would be more like, there is a forced checkmate in 12 but it involves navigating a sharp position that is complex and any miscalculation could equalize the position.

On the other hand, you can simply exchange queens and rooks and have a clear winning endgame, but it will only result in a checkmate in 20 moves.

Almost any human would opt for the latter to avoid the risk. From the computer's perspective, there is no risk.
yeah that's fair. i should have said "a large proportion of the 0/10 reviews i looked at" and even then i admit that there is no perfect way to determine what is and isn't a fake review.

i guess i have very little faith that any platform does any work to combat review bombing so i take a very skeptical look at anything i see. i'd also wish for more powerful user tools to automate some of the things that looked suspicious to me such as filtering the score to exclude new accounts, accounts which have only reviewed one thing, reviews that are just the exact same sentence, reviews which have tons of "helpful" reactions the moment they are posted.
I don't know what scams you are looking at but regenerative agriculture is incredibly complicated and time consuming but not physically labor intensive because it is compatible with mechanization.

Conventional argiculture is the simple and lazy version where instead of trying to understand your local ecosystem you just douse everything in fertilizer, pesticide, etc so you don't have to care what is happening in your soil.

Number of people isn't necessarily the best metric, better to look at expected years of life lost, and by that metric covid looks less significant because it kills the old and infirm at a much higher relative rate than e.g. the flu.

Then there is the problem of deaths being attributed to covid any time the person who died has a positive covid test in the month prior to their death. It's easy to find numerous examples of people who died in car crashes or from suicide being reported as covid deaths, even still.

And interestingly, the mortality rate could even be inversely related to long term effects-- after all, if covid kills you then you don't have any long term effects (except being dead).
I use FKs and have migrated/updated the scheme multiple times over the years. If something goes wrong during migration that means I don't understand my own scheme properly. Getting rid of FKs for that reason feels like disabling all compiler warnings, or wrapping every single method in java in a try-catch block with an empty catch part.

I don't see a cheater, I see someone who's been grinding for a while and finally popped off. Dunno if he can keep it up though, might be one of those miracle performances that he never recovers from (ex. Linsanity). He comes across as arrogant and a little affected (the hand flourishes, stylistic pauses), but I like him a lot better than Hikaru. Hoping he continues to see success and smooths out his interview performance over time.

If anything, I'm suspicious it's was a throw from Magnus, or at least subconsciously choosing when to relinquish the throne. This is the guy you want to see in the spotlight. He's interesting, confident, and puts his heart into the game.

Zoom Calls of the Past
A company I worked at handled a massive c++ code base, and nearly all the devs used Emacs as their main editor. That was back in like 2012.
> Yet at the same time these studies were happening, we were carrying out actions, ostensibly well informed and in good faith, that promised to be able to effectively eliminate COVID if we just e.g. shut down the country for 'x' weeks.

I don't think that's true. Pretty much within a month or two, most of the conversation was around "flatten the curve", which is explicitly not about stopping the total number of cases, but rather lowering the peaks of simultaneous cases.

And when the vaccines came out, it was clear fairly quickly (though maybe after this study? I don't know) that the major benefit of them would be to the severity of the illness, not to prevention of spread.
Can imagine it's for a lot of reasons. Like:

- Improves morale

- Focuses the team

- Makes the task more approachable

Etc.

The important ones will probably bubble up again in due time.
My personal experience is, that when I code something mathematical, it sticks. If I had learned math stuff this way, I would know much more today, than I do.
Never did. Never saw any need for it.
On the theory that the valid and important enough bugs would've been fixed within 6 months?

Any idea the breakdown of the bugs that were closed?

(Guesses at percentages of which were user error, applied only to an older version, duplicates, irreproducibile, valid but would happen only in freak circumstances, low impact, etc.)
I did not know that one can flash openwrt on top of mikrotik. I have nothing against mikrotik, just not a big fan of learning yet another command line interface for doing same stuff I do for living on linux - manage firewalls and stuff.
Bajau people 'evolved bigger spleens' for free-diving (2018)
Yea, I find the people who complain about Star Trek and its 'wokeness' who also state they are diehard fans confusing. TOS was very heavy handed in its progressiveness at the time. Uhara and Sulu were considered groundbreaking characters from a diversity perspective.

I also agree about the uneven quality.
How to change hardware identification numbers in Ubuntu?
When I was in Windows, there were tons of tutorials and I could do it very easily within 30 minutes.

So, please tell me.

I want to change:

1) All disk ids, i.e C,D,E,F. local disk ids. They're called sth else in ubuntu. I want to change them.

2) All the USB ids, i.e mouse and keyboard connected via USB.

3) Monitor ids

4) Charger id if that's possible

5) RAM id

I just want to change stuffs that can be accessed by any application be it google chrome, firefox, or any desktop softwares.
The Epicurean guide to digital life
About your flagged child comment: you are stating as fact you know how others think - you are wrong and even worse, you are rude. Are you assuming that others think like you do? Take care: I think your attitude is likely to result in strongly negative effects in your life.

Also, please follow the HN guidelines - the guidelines were created to help encourage intelligent discussion. https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
That sounds extremely bad but please don't take HN threads on generic flamewar tangents. What this leads to is every thread converging on the worst things people have to bring up. It's not that those things aren't bad (of course they are—that's why people bring them up). It's that such a site would be completely against the mandate of this one (as described at https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html), so we have to be careful not to let it develop that way.

Not only are you nitpicking, you are also wrong.

https://www.grammarphobia.com/blog/2013/07/architectural-cri...

We should add that the use of “architect” as a verb isn’t a recent phenomenon. The Oxford English Dictionary has written examples going back to the early 1800s.

The earliest example in the OED is from a July 23, 1818, letter that the poet John Keats wrote to his brother Thomas after visiting Fingal’s Cave on the island of Staffa in the Inner Hebrides of Scotland.

Here’s how a poem in the letter describes the cave and its distinctive basalt columns: “This was architected thus / By the great Oceanus.”

Your view of language is incredibly prescriptive. If I want to, I can say architects architect buildings. There's nothing wrong with that. If there's a useful distinction between designing and architecting then there's 0 reason I shouldn't bring attention to it.

For example. If 'to architect' is synonymous with 'design', would you say someone architects a logo?

You can just archive the bugs somewhere, so you can open them again later if you want to. (You don't need to completely delete them or so.)

I can see how this can provide psychological benefits to some people.
Ask HN: What company for EU based startup
My cofounder and I are currently working on an idea that we eventually want to turn into a startup.

Our plan is to build the MVP, show that there’s interest in the product, and then pitch to VCs to get funded. For the time being, the company doesn’t have any real operations other than the two of us building it on the side. We are looking for the best option in terms of costs now and we are trying to avoid legal headaches later on.

Coming from Germany, our natural choice for the company would be a GmbH or UG but that’s not very attractive for US VCs. We can’t really estimate how much of a hassle it is to convert this to a C Corp later on. Has anyone here ever done that?

Starting with a Delaware based C Corp would put us both in uncharted territory. We would need experts for basically everything. Which would make it quite costly. We can’t really estimate how much this would cost us per year. Looking at Stripe Atlas, it’s $500 initially + around $3000 (including legal fees) yearly to run the company.

Another choice would be a UK based Limited. Easy to set up and relatively cheap to run. But here, again, no idea how easy it is to convert it into a C corp later on.

Any ideas, recommendations greatly appreciated
Based solely on my anecdotal data it seems like many comedies where I live are local (aka not from the US).

Some of them do well others don't but they are certainly there.

Is there a similar set of movies in the US (aimed at the national/state level market) or is all the money sucked up by productions for the international market.
All that tells me is that if you are a supremely fit individual, you will likely not see any cardiovascular damage from the vaccine OR covid (hard to tell which).

That doesn't describe me or the vast majority of the world's population.
Recreating Optimisation
what s stopping them from continuing after day 8.5
Here's my correction. My power meter has just arrived, it says my wifi router only consume 3.0 W at start and then drops to 2.4 W, so:

- google "how many hour in a month" = 730 hours

- 2.4 W / 1000 W * 730 hours = 1.75 kWh / month
Not that I'm interested in arguing against your intent, but the second and third paragraphs clearly lay out the article is about the younger generations not knowing what a file system is.

I linked it here because, with regards to "already standardized the hosting side of static sites by using the file system", it means squat if the webmaster-to-be doesn't know what a file system is. There's no preconception of using files to hold and serve data from if you don't know (and possibly don't care) about file systems.

If we're going to be discussing attempts at changing the paradigm, then it stands to reason to understand the environment at large that might be encouraging it. If we're going to be talking about something replacing file systems for data storage, it's pertinent to know first of all that the younger generations give zero bits about files.

Also, SEO is at best a tangent to data storage and serving. Some webmasters might not even care to bother with SEO if they don't care about search engine rankings.
People used to think that Emacs was bloated. Like:

'Eight Megabytes (of RAM) And Constantly Swapping', back when 8 MiB was big.
And his involvement in SegWit2X, which was dead in the water because of an off-by-one error by his hand. Had that code been run in production, the entire bitcoin ecosystem would have ground to a halt.

So yeah, bit of a burned reputation.
Not trying to normalize, just adding to the horror: Slavery is huge in South East Asia for all kinds of industries.

In Cambodia it's well known that people from neighboring countries (especially Vietnam and Philippines) are lured in with promises of good jobs and then have their passports taken and aren't allowed to leave. It's like a combination of slavery and ransom. Or worse up to and including organ harvesting.
> Just look at the death counts, COVID-19 is killing 10x more people than the flu per year. You realize over a million Americans are dead in two years from COVID-19, right? The flu in a similar timespan kills ~100k.

That's fallacious reasoning. Even assuming that every one of those deaths is from Covid, comparing a disease that has been circulating for 3 years with one that has been circulating for many hundreds of years is misleading.

Of course the virus with little population immunity is going to have more of an immediate effect. That does not imply that the virus has greater long-term impact, greater overall severity, or anything else. It says that nobody had this virus before, and everyone got it, quickly.

On top of all of that, the ~100k people that flu kills, in an average year, is biased toward the young. Covid mortality, on the other hand, is almost exclusively amongst the elderly and infirm.
"I am likely not the target audience, seeing as how Amazon provides ~14 languages for closed captioning - they may be seeking a more global audience with this content."

Because you have nothing in common with folks that aren't fluent in English? Even when they live in the same city and neighborhood as you? I really don't understand this. Lots of folks have common interests even though not all of them are fluent in English. Subtitles are so widespread and entertainment so international that even streaming sites tend to have decent subtitles. I truly don't understand how this says anything about the content of the show.
Engineering can never supersede the limits of Physics.

Agree, listing only 0.1 A without saying at what voltage is is not informative. Recently bought a power meter and it says it actually only consumes 2.4W. I posted my correction on the replies above
Much wider hardware support with OpenWRT. If the hardware is accessible and supports Linux, there is an OpenWRT target for it.
There’s even a x86 and a raspberry target.

If you’re happy with DD-WRT, no pressing need to change it.
But if you want more features or specific packages, OpenWRT is the thing to look at.
I am dumbfounded: did they really not write the rocket equation?

It is good to be accessible to everybody but, honestly, this seems like a silly omission.

Ask HN: Which software do you use for your presentations?
In need of a software that will generate slick presentations for demoing product features (target market is software developers). Total noob here when it comes to making good presentations.

Must have:

1. Nice motions/transitions (rules out Pitch who have been taking forever to implement it)

2. Embed videos

3. Must be really easy/fun to use

Apart from this, do you use any specific software to animate code blocks? I really like the Cypress documentation videos where certain parts of the code blocks are highlighted, with rest dimmed out, while explaining specific functions/methods (An example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1rHmOYyGDo).

Any tools that you use to make your presentations stand out can also be included.

P.S. I am really averse to Powerpoint. Haven't explored Keynote enough except for some basic presentations. Is Keynote good enough? Please let me know.

P.S.S. Prefer indie tools which I can support (if they are good enough). If you have developed one please don't hesitate to link here.

Thanks!
The limits are actually pretty darn extreme for CF Pages — no bandwidth limits, 20000 files, and 500 deployments per day.

It's mind-boggling for me to read the comment section with people paying (and recommending!) anything above 0$/mo for static page hosting, because most likely GitHub / CF Pages can handle more requests than that and requires zero maintenance.
The problem is not the type of causes funded, it's that the money was collected under the premise that it was urgently needed to "keep Wikipedia online", "ad-free" and "independent" - including from people in India and South Africa whom I'd rather see funding local causes, supporting people who are in real poverty, than have them sending money to a wealthy country like the US to support diversity causes there.
They are ecologically significant, sadly. Things feed on their larvae, etc.
Lots of shows have black people in them, and most of them don't get tons of negative reviews.

So here's my theory: LOTR is extremely popular with a huge number of fans. This show is subpar. Subpar adaptation of very popular thing means lots of disappointed fans, meaning lots of negative reviews.
Screw a pulley down to the seabed. Run a cable from a float through the pulley to a reel on a winch driven by a motor-generator. (Could be on shore, in a boat anchored out there, or bolted to a wind-turbine post.)

Crank the float down toward the seabed when you have power to spare. Let the float reel back out when you need that power back.

For extra credit, attach a whole series of reels to one winch, with clutches, so one winch can crank down as many floats as you have reels, one or two at a time. (Floats, pulleys, and reels are cheap, motor-generators expensive, so it pays to share.) Maybe, instead of a winch and clutches, the reels are driven with hydraulics.

Size the floats so the winch is a catalog item, say <1000-ton capacity. Use as many motor-generators on winches as you need for the MW you must generate. Use as many pulleys/floats as you need for the MWh you need to store.

The deeper the pulleys are, the more MWh each float can store. Keep adding floats until you have enough.
That's brazen. They annoyed France with nuclear energy, they especially wanted to close nuclear reactor near Germany.
Fessenheim finally got closed last year, only to prolong their own nuclear reactor.

In my opinion, Germany lost all sympathy they may have had. All their acts only show one thing: they care about their money only.
> Tolkien several said he wanted see what other people with their own creative vision could do set in Middle Earth.

That would explain why the Tolkien state sued "Dungeons and Dragons", and Warner Bross, and anybody trying to clone middle earth in their own shows...

This explains also why the Witcher would need to find a way to have elves depicted as much different as possible from Tolkien's elves. Tolkien's elves are extremely advanced technologically and the "de facto" standard now for the term, Witcher's elves are a tribe of poor forest people, closer to the (copyright free) traditional goblins, but that went extinct with Tolkien's work.
Frankly this has more to do with the fetish of building overly large nuclear power plants. They are usually far bigger than coal plants but they get connected to rivers of similar size.
It actually looked like a corrupted elf, which makes it that more scary and sad.

They also portrayed elves really well. Vain and ideological.

It's these lore holes that normal people dont have and they miss out on a lot of connections watching this series

He's talking about FK constraints right?

We do not use them for write performance concerns.

There's plenty of nice features of the DB we're not allowed to use under the excuse of "performance". But I'm told this by people who live and breathe SQL, so I trust them and I hope they have evidence to back it up. Because a lot of these features we're not allowed to use would make our lives 100x easier if we could!
The construction: “There is a concern…” is perfectly normal in either place. It’s not a dialect difference, I don’t even really understand how you can make this point, unless I’m misunderstanding.
How about when the ID in a FK column has been generated outside the RDBMS but the target of the ID has not been written yet?
This might be an OK strategy for an internal bug tracker but for an open source project or something else with a public bug tracker just closing unresolved bugs is the best way to alienate your most dedicated users who have taken the time to file bug reports.
