I don't know if I'm just lucky or something, but I somehow managed to turn quite a few contacts on LinkedIn, that I've never met before, into really nice in person connections. It's almost surreal. One became a friend, with kids playing together. Others are cool to meet for beers and good conversations, etc. Just last week I was on a plane and recognised someone, who I thought was one of the people on LinkedIn. Dropped a message just before the flight, ended up going through customs together. Got invited into a tech meetup, etc..
I've been avoiding any google product lock in for years now. These ban cases might be rare but i would never trust them enough to build my livelihood on it.
You're just wrong about this. It's still possible to find large fallen American Chestnut trunks from the blight.

Trees will increase their biomass, hence sequestered carbon, for decades, and if left where they fall, it very much depends on the tree. A poplar will be gone in a couple years, a sycamore/plane will substantially still be there in a cenury.

Silly question but why is the Pi necessary?
Isn't this a Linux project, or actually a C++ project?
My guess is it's because device names are a -mess- between Linux (etc) devices (starting with, the same device has different names ex /dev, lsusb, alsa|pulse|pipewire list devices; multiple layers of indirection does not make for a great casual experience), and this simplifies the mess to one well-known device to make it less of a hair-pulling exercise. Which is telling, because Pi is sold as a learning kit, and it takes away this most unhelpful level of knowledge.

I guess looking for a meta project where the driver was a specification, 'stereo-96+khz-active' (that survived reboots/hot plugging) would just create one more meta project? Like https://editorconfig.org/. But maybe its about time, cause "Linux" and even "open source" loses a lot of value when getting something running is 90% arbitrary yak-shaving, where people need deep magic to get audio working the way they like. I mean, you have to be a 90s-2020s cruft (no other word for it) expert to play with supposedly user friendly software.
You need to host your email somewhere else. Any of the big name VPS providers are going to be on a blocklist. I've tried a bunch and its always the same pain

Gave up hosting my own, just not worth the headaches.
I am confused, are you for or against FOUC? Or for optimizing against it?

My core industry is e-commerce, have been doing it for over a decade. Our fastest sites are the fully cached, single CSS file sites. You get sent a small amount of CSS and HTML, and you are off to the races. Javascript comes later, and is not necessary to operate the site until checkout.

What kills a sites speed for us is usually shitty CDNs and bloated assets, we don't have those. There isn't a single e-commerce platform popular today that I feel does this well, but that is because they are all enterprise platforms full of enterprise features.

My home lab sounds pretty similar to the author's - three compute nodes running Debian, and a single storage node (single point of failure, yes!) running TrueNAS Core.

I was initially pretty apprehensive about running Kubernetes on the compute nodes, my workloads all being special snowflakes and all. I looked at off-the-shelf apps like mailu for hosting my mail system, for instance, but I have some really bizarre postfix rules that it wouldn't support. So I was worried that I'd have to maintain Dockerfiles, and a registry, and lots of config files in Git, and all that.

And guess what? I do maintain Dockerfiles, and a registry, and lots of config files in Git, but the world didn't end. Once I got over the "this is different" hump, I actually found that the ability to pull an entire node out of service (or have fan failures do it for me), more than makes up for the difference. I no longer have awkward downtime when I need to reboot (or have to worry that the machines will reboot), or little bits of storage spread across lots of machines.

Slightly off-topic, but what should you be ashamed by something that is totally independent from you, that you can't control in any way? Personally I'm ashamed only if I do something wrong myself.

To the downvoters of this comment - why are you disagreeing with the sentiment that people should be able to form groups to petition their government?

What's your alternative proposal?

It looks to me like the system is working as intended; if something matters to you, form a group and petition the government.
If you keep your LEGO sorted then many builders suggest sorting by part rather than by colour - its a lot easier to identify a pink vs. hot pink 1x4 brick, rather than to find the 1x4 brick in your hot pink box.

However, sorting by part can be frustrating. Imagine only 1x1 tiles/plates (i.e. the pieces which are 1/3 the height of a regular brick), to my knowledge there are:

* 1x1 square plates (i.e. with a stud on top),
* 1x1 circular plates,
* 1x1 circular plates, with a hole running through,
* 1x1 square tiles (i.e. with a flat top),
* 1x1 circular tiles,
* 1x1 arch-shaped tiles,
* 1x1 quarter-circle tiles,
* 1x1 circular tiles with a nubbin on top

Could you elaborate? What does "smooth async" and "reactive subtrees" mean in the context of UX, that sounds more like developer experience than user experience.

Generally if you can do it on mobile you can do it elsewhere, right? If you want something like ReactJS and coroutines/async/await, look at Jetpack Compose. It's inspired by ReactJS but for Android/Desktop: https://developer.android.com/jetpack/compose

You don't need any particular UI toolkit though. Many years ago I did a tutorial on "functional programming in Kotlin":

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhA-Q7MOre0

It uses JavaFX with a library called ReactFX that adds functional utilities on top of the UI framework. It shows how to do async fuzzy matching of user input against a large set of ngrams. I guess that's in the region of what you mean too.

Oh, I understand the why of wave energy being challenging, there's a huge amount of energy available to be harnessed, but on the other hand there's a huge amount of energy being put into any equipment, before you even have to deal with the generally hostile environment created by salt water.

Back when I did it before the pandemic I got in contact with a lot of interesting people through local (Sth-Swe) meetup groups centered around both programming languages and entrepreneurship. Sadly those seems to have kinda fizzled out (but are kinda getting new tracation slowly), no idea if this is feasible in less populated places though.
Education is about exercising the mind. I don't think many play with inflated balls in their adulthood, yet it's very important to teach children hand-eye coordination, team play, and other concepts so that they become better functioning humans.

There are problems with the curriculum though, one of them that it plays catch-up with the state of the world. IT in particular moves very fast. Graphics programming is not one of these things however. For example, if you've done the courses, and experiences just how hard it is to crate anything in 3d, you can better appreciate the work that goes into modern 3d engines. Look at this beautiful breakdown of the inner workings of the GTA V engine:

I would always recommend the OpenBSD coreutils over the GNU coreutils as they are much cleaner and less hacky. To be fair many of the tricks being used in the GNU code make the code run much faster but they're not a great starting point for a casual code browse.
I think the general idea is that you should contribute twice the drinks you consume because not everyone will always play by the rules and this will not necessarily be a bad apple. I can easily imagine myself drinking from that fridge for days, then one day bring back three 6-packs into the fridge because I saw an offer and carrying them to work would not be an issue because "I'll go with my car next week".
Something alike :)
Carnivores are a fairly recent phenomenon.
The studies linking meat to health issues were done on the McDonald's and coke population.

There is also zero commercial interest in pushing meat over carb filled diets.

Look inside any supermarket. It's literally 95% non-meat processed food with long expiry date, an easy manufacturing process and the added benefit of keeping people addicted and hungry.
I like the idea of weighting the problems by a difficulty score that is calculated from the number of users solving it.

I think the idea as presented ("A person's score is the sum of the difficulty ranking of every problem they've solved") would not work great on its own because there will be a large number of people who have solved every single problem.

But certainly we could do the thing about adding up people's per-problem ranking with a weighting based on the problem difficulty! I will experiment with this.

The thing I don't like is that it can result in the leaderboard changing, even for people who have solved all problems, simply because more new people attempt a particular problem, which can alter the relative weightings:

Imagine Alice has 1st place on problem 1 and 2nd place on problem 2. Bob has 2nd place on problem 1 and 1st place on problem 2. Problem 1 is considered twice as difficult as problem 2, so Alice is ahead of Bob overall.

Bob doesn't like this. He wants to be ahead of Alice. He signs up for thousands of accounts to attempt (but not solve) problem 2. This makes problem 2 look very difficult, so now problem 2 is worth more than problem 1 and Bob is ranked ahead of Alice.

What sort of fiscal policies are you referring to? If you're referring to things like FINCEN and FATCA, I would argue these only strengthen the reliability and dependence on the USD abroad.
They likely do not live in an apartment and are trying to apply their home office square footage to an apartment. Based upon the many zoom backgrounds of coworkers and interview candidates, many set at most a desk as a permanent WFH space. The more common is not having any exclusively WFH spaces and using the work laptop in various sources throughout their apartments.
"upcoming recession"

Maybe, maybe not.
Most Amazon tablets I see aren't being used as cheap ebook readers but are being used by kids because their parents don't want to risk them damaging an expensive tablet.
You fail to see my point. Cheap electricity is our only competitive advantage (well, in addition to a well educated population). We cannot compete on labor wages, which are much higher here than pretty much anywhere in the world.

If we give away that advantage for shortsighted profit instead of using it to build our own industry, we will only strengthen central europe's industries, while we go back to being a resource economy.

I think wanting a "beautiful" graphical Markdown editor defeats the purpose of the format.

It isn't a natural law, but it is an EU law.

A two-tiered system would also need EU on board, since currently such a system is considered anti-competitive for some reason (unclear to me why).

Although I don’t use an amp modeler I ripped the guts out of my Twin Reverb and replaced the heavy ceramic speakers with neodymium speakers and an external solid-state amp head from Quilter. No more moving cart for gigging and I still have a pleasure of standing next to an open-backed 2x12!

I’m too much of a minimalist for a modeling amp. I want physical dials and switches that are easily tweaked during performance and I want to be familiar with the entire range of settings along the audio path!

It's incredibly easy to cheat this since you actually, in real-time, can see the feedback of how random it thinks you are.
Automation is useful, even in homelab environments, since manual configuration introduces human errors, and automation can speed up recovery from disasters.

> plenty of copper conductors can be switched to aluminum

Aluminum is cheaper than copper today. Don't you think, if it would be viable solution to use aluminum instead of copper, it would have already happened?
I think the headline is stressing the wrong thing.

Whilst it's true that most available cars[1] have an upper charging limit well below the common charging station max of 250kW, not all charging stations are created equal.

There's a lot of smaller charging points that have to be small because the grid can't supply 250kW so you only get 50kW or 9kW.

Even if you do have the grid capacity to supply a few high current points you might be able to double the number with localised energy storage. Flattening that peak demand when all points start charging the same time.

Right now there's a lot of contention and queuing for those high capacity stations at certain times of day.

As long as the cost of an energy storage system, regardless of how it works, is lower than the cost of expanding the grid locally it's a viable option.

1. e.g. Audi eTron can only charge at a max of 150kW and the rate drops off as the battery fills.
FWIW, airtel broadband, one of the largest (or the largest?) fixed line broadband providers, doesn’t offer IPv6 for all customers. It seems like mobile broadband from even a lower ranking provider (like Vi) does offer it. I doubt if all ISPs will meet this goal by the end of this year.

I used to work in concrete construction, doing post tensioned and SOMD for elevated slab. Coring might be simpler for SOMD, but post tensioned has such a high density of cables that I don't think it would work.

It has: significantly cheaper internet access once providers have to charge extra for expensive v4 addresses, complex NAT solutions and gateways.
Once you work in enterprise IDC, setting up home labs is nothing but a liability. Unwanted stuff like UPS, cooling and more bills. I have one Intel NUC running FreeBSD 13 (dual SSD with 32 GB ram and Intel i7 CPU 8th GEN) with one jail and VM. It acts as a backup server for my Ubuntu laptop and MacBook pro. Nightly I dump data to cloud providers for offsite reasons. Finally, I set LXD, Docker and KVM on my Ubuntu dev laptop for testing. That is all. No more FreeNAS or 3 more servers including 2 RPis. I made this change during the first lockdown. They (I mean fun and excitements) went away once I handled all those expensive IT equipment/servers/firewalls/routers/WAFs funded employer ;)
First thing I would check would be to see the new company is profitable or it is well funded and on its way to profitability. If that is the case, I would consider switching for sure.
>he doesn't do any self promotion. He doesn't write blogposts, he doesn't do interviews, he doesn't have any hot takes on Twitter, he doesn't comment on HN

IMO, that is what makes him so unique and a bazillion times better than other so-called "greats". And he gives away all of his work for free. He lives by actual principles, morals and ethics which most of us only mouth.

What i really really would like to see is an in-depth interview with him on his Worldviews, Problem solving approach, How to focus on studying something, Productivity tips etc. I can't help but feel that he has a certain approach to life, studies and work (not just hard work) which if we could learn from would make us "better".
Obviously they will need to sooner or later. IPv4 address space is mostly depleted; at one point or another, regulation is the only thing that will help.
And if this was a coordinated deplatforming, who knows how many properties of theirs went down simultaneously, including cache from various search engines. E.g. If they used their Gmail account for emails to all those services mentioned up in the thread. Your email is your identity and it's not owned by you atm.
Midwest and I've definitely always believed "different to" was a British phrase and not even grammatical in US English (i.e. a native speaker who hadn't encountered it throughout life in UK publications would judge it as flat out wrong)
Show HN: Typing Cyclist
The app started from the idea to see if we can make a developer friendly type training app. One thing this app should accomplish is being fast and intuitive with minimal distractions. Another requirement was that it should help with training your typing speed when writing code.

Currently the demo app comes with a couple of modes and settings. Most importantly the are three difficulty levels (basic, intermediated and advanced) as well as a code mode (for training your type speed when writing code). Furthermore we have some rudimentary statistics (like avg. typing speed over time and error rate on a per key basis).

Finally as the name implies, you should be able able to cycle through the training via shortcuts, being able to navigate from one course to the next, without having to leave the keyboard avoiding context switches.

There are more features like focus mode (larger text, zero distractions) and even the possibility to add your own custom texts and try with them.

Last but not least, maybe the most important feature: dark mode.
You can try the demo over at http://typing-cyclist.vercel.app, let us know what you think.
A really interesting thread - thanks for sharing
Forcing micro USB and now USB-C on electronic devices has been one of the best ideas by the EU overall. Remember using ten different charging cables? Gone, due to a helpful piece of regulation by the government.
Yeah, and I'd like to have a driver's license that will never expire.

But neither of these things will ever happen, for approximately the same reason.
To agree with you and further what you've said...

Even if the map is infinitely perfect, your understanding of it is imperfect. Because your mental model of the map is the actual map you follow, it is the actual map that you follow. Because you are imperfect, even if your map is perfect, the map you follow is imperfect.

Therefore, the saying is always true.

The whole point if nationalism is to have self-governance in order for people to be able to effect their destiny. If modern nationalistic governments are to be seen as distant and impervious, then how is that different from the imperial era? And if the people do have control over their governments, then why should they not feel shame over not exercising that power constructively?
I've been considering the same - I could add maybe 30%-40% on to my salary based on my career direction over the past 2-3 years but a good friend cautioned that I'd switch out being in an established role that would pay me out if I were made redundant for a better paid role that could get rid of me with little notice if things went badly.

Last in, first out.

There are other factors besides salary at work that are leading me to consider options right now so this isn't purely financially motivated, but my decision is that the broader context right now to be telling me to weather it out where I am for the short to medium term.
