sorry to hear this and thanks for sharing. my mother repeatedly sabotaged and discouraged my projects in life, and would blame anything that went wrong in my career on me. she knew i wanted a company of my own and so when i dropped out of a phd program to finally do it she gave me a little cash to get started but not enough to be able to get anywhere. that has been a recurring situation. don’t say no and help, but then do not offer any encouragement and do just enough so you can’t be blamed. eventually i was able to bootstrap and when we were at a crtitical scaling point and needed support to get to the next level i had to deal with endless shouting and arguing and mental manipulation to the point i made a bad decision and it went under. i still carry the PTSD from that to this day. i have since rebooted the company but everything has changed and it’s been an uphill battle since… i had to move halfway a across the world to distance myself and try to rebuild my career and company. to this day she tries to control me and uses money to do so. i made the mistake of relying too much on my parents financially which further complicates all of this. i wish there were more mental health and support systems specifically for startup founders.
As jaywalk has pointed out, he isn't saying they disagree with him. They disagree with what he and the FSU stands for, i.e. the underlying principles and positions. Not that the FSU really has many positions beyond free speech being good - they defend people on both sides of the political spectrum which is why it's hard to figure out what PayPal are upset about here.
Show HN: I put my résumé into a DOOM WAD
I was tired of of old and busted PDF résumé, so I thought why not try adding some of the information into a DOOM WAD instead. As a way of conveying information to an employer it's terrible, but if it takes longer than 30s to play, it might be looked at longer than the average résumé.

No, however it is resistant to conventional forms of analysis via UTXO and tx hash given the nature of stealth inputs.

One drawback to Monero specifically though are light-blocks, which unfortunately fingerprint the user as they cross from TOR<->clearnet or start/stop the daemon sync process. Announcing which transactions you have in your current sync state announces which daemons you're speaking to and where you're located via process of elimination.
The change in sub split is entirely unrelated to the gambling. I don't mean to imply otherwise. That's been coming for awhile.

I only bring it up because it's part of larger Twitch changes this year. It's going to hit streamer revenue. The banning of crypto slots is another massive blow to a lot of streamer revenue.

To be clear, I 100% support the crypto slots ban on Twitch.

> opening a door to further normalization and mainstream acceptance of gambling

Meh. I don't know that that's resolvable. The fundamental desire for this in the market is real, the job of regulation is just to keep a lid on the worst excesses. Given the choice between a very large regulated market for a good and a somewhat smaller but completely unregulated black market for the same good, most people would prefer the former even if there are sharp edges.
Because at some point the manufacturers will need to choose whether to comply with sanctions, or get cut of the Western markets. Russian market is relatively worthless, so it's not a hard choice, and we're already seeing Chinese vendors leaving Russia.
At that time I wouldn’t have believed this was all true, but I do now.

> Not maxing out our current petri dish should not be controversial.

It should be controversial if it means that the middle class of the developed world have to lower their standards of living, and the global poor will never get the chance to attain the next level of energy consumption per capita fueled by abundant and cheap energy sources like fossil fuels, all the while the elite advocating for such changes hold on to their jets and mansions.

If A > B then, duh!
Twitch already censors a lot of other content and also this isn't just people streaming, they're making money off of it.

I don't think this is comparable to other sites like Twitter banning users because Twitch isn't a communication platform, it's an entertainment one and only allowing certain kinds of entertainment is par for the course.
It’s not equivalent to 393k though, is it?

It’s worth absolutely nothing unless it can be converted into actual money, which is appears will be quite difficult to do.

Now you just have “I have a lot of worthless ether” bragging rights and pretty much nothing else you didn’t have before except maybe legal woes.

Sums up my feelings about crypto pretty much completely.

> You still have to aggregate somewhere.

Tbh, I'm not entirely sold on this - although I see this (server-side aggregation a cross data sources) as the main idea behind graphql. So seems like it belongs in your graphql proxy (which can proxy graphql, rest, soap endpoints - maybe even databases).

But for the "somewhere" part - consider that your servers might be on a 10gbps interconnect (and on 1 to 10gbps interconnect to external servers) - while your client might be on a 10 Mbps link - over bigger distances (higher latency).

Aggregating on client could be much slower because of the round-trip being much slower.

In addition, you might be able to do some server-side caching of queries that are popular across clients.

Amazon was a good gig to join (on the AWS side) 4 years ago, not so much now.

Reason being everyone I know who got in around 2018 has options that cost a fraction of the current stock price. The job is still boring/miserable but when you are clearing 600k+ annual income...

Now if you join, you can bet its a far worse deal and you will make far less than those who just happened to join earlier, even if they're checked out...

There in lies one of their problems, the incentives are for checked out people to stay and 'click buttons' while performing as much CYA as possible.

> Now in the last 2 years or so, gambling has really started to dominate the platform. This is quite literally people playing slots on auto-roll for hours every day, sometimes for $1500/spin where each spin may well be 6 seconds.

What I don't get: who the fuck watches this kind of stream, and why? Are the viewer counts actually real or is all of this just a massive scam where everyone is inflating counts with the endgame of defrauding advertisers?

I'd like a bit more differentiated discussion on this - does LGBTQ actually mean sexual topics or does it include a book where having same-sex parents is shown as normal? From skimming the article that wasn't quite clear to me.
I know the article is serious, but it has the writing-style of an onion/babylonbee article lol.

esp the last paragraph:
>As time ran out, Matthew Wilcox asked whether kernel developers should be writing idiomatic Rust code, or whether they will be writing "C in Rust". Ojeda answered that code might be more C-like toward the beginning; adoption of more advanced features (such as async) might take longer. Gleixner asked what could be done to prevent developers from using unstable features (once the features used by the kernel are stabilized); the answer was to specify the version of the compiler to be used with kernel development.
Absolutely nothing wrong with that.
> And it's not like buying your stuff solves this problem anyway. This very site is filled with complaints and reports of proprietary software failing to work the way its users intend too.

I've had proprietary software break on me. It was actually our fault. Literally, it resulted in there being a call with a developer at the vendor and they fixed our code for us.

I've had proprietary software break and got money back for SLAs. You get a fix real quick when there is an SLA.

I've had proprietary software have release dates pushed back because we couldn't handle the time to rewrite to the new version and we still had a support contract for that version. We could have choosen just to keep paying for support on the old version at a higher price but obivously choose to rewrite to the newer version.

At the same time, I've had pull requests go unmerged even though they had tests and fixed bugs.

For me, even if it's just the ability to complain I thnk paying is worth it. You complain to an open source project they're screwing with your stuff you're an entitled user. You complain to a vendor that they're screwing with your stuff, you're an rightfully angry customer that gives them a reason to spend time to fix the issue causing you problems.
AWS console is one of the most poorly developed builder tools Ive ever encountered for a company like Amazon, from a UX perspective at least.

> If you're coming from Java, the most difficult thing you'll need to learn is memory management,

I'm coming from a largely Java background (though I program a lot of C and assembly as a hobby), and this statement is very true. Getting used to the borrow checker and reference lifetimes has been the largest obstacle so far. But once that is understood, the rest of Rust is basically learning the idioms and ecosystem.

I will likely change how I write C based on my experience with Rust's memory ownership model..

>> Personally, I think the way forward is source available.

I'm not sure that's the best solution either. One thing I think is often overlooked is license compatibility. Open source benefits a LOT at time when code can be taken directly from one project and used in another. In fewer cases it also benefits from the ability to fork a project.

In my opinion we should stick to a tiny number of licenses depending on which makes sense for a project: MIT, GPL, and LGPL. Now I realize there is a lot of BSD out there which seems equivalent to MIT. And as everything is moving to the cloud I can actually see AGPL as a good thing, but even that IMHO should have been merged to GPL3 to prevent license proliferation. In the same sense I think the OSI made things worse by "approving" more licenses that are technically open source but just fragment things. Similar for the Apache licenses.

So no, we don't really want to solve these problems with another license. OTOH if your product is stand alone and not likely to have code useful outside itself then it might be OK. But then you're just inviting outsiders to contribute to your commercial product while also offering a limited use free version. I'm going to guess you don't get a lot of contributions?

I've been having the opposite problem. Things are going to my spam that are obviously not spam. The worst part is gmail automatically deletes after 30 days, with no way to configure that time period. I had to email some people recently to check whether they had reached out to me because I realized it probably went to spam (it did). Who knows how much other stuff I've missed.
> That's gambling minus the possibility of making money.

Lootboxes are extremely scummy, but doesn't the fact that you can't make money from it make it not gambling? Otherwise wouldn't places like Chuck-e-Cheese with ticket prize arcades be considered gambling? Or card games like MTG and Pokemon? In those cases you can even sell your prizes to other people for real cash.
I wonder how credible this could be considering that Bobby Fischer eventually turned into a conspiracist and and international shame to the US. A bright mind that had its ghosts.
Its not that:

> PEN America defines a school book ban as any action taken against a book based on its content and as a result of parent or community challenges, administrative decisions, or in response to direct or threatened action by lawmakers or other governmental officials, that leads to a previously accessible book being either completely removed from availability to students, or where access to a book is restricted or diminished.

Parents saying "I don't want my kids reading this" is very different than a parents' complaint which reduces access to or availability of that book.
I'm surprised Torvalds is so sanguine about Rust. Maybe it's age but I remember his epic gamer rant about how he would never allow C++ in the kernel. Either Rust is significantly better than C++ in his view, or he's accepted that C is likely not going to be the dominant systems programming language forever and opted for the least dangerous alternative.

Guess I should start my 5th attempt at finally getting good at Rust.
Yes, unfortunately that button will do that. I'll fix it, thank you!
One reason (may not be their main one) could be that system calls have more overhead than function calls, and some things (like futexes) make more sense to implement on the userspace side. As another example, imagine a function for measuring time. You don't want that to be a system call if it's meant to be efficient, and when a better mechanism comes along, changing the implementation on the user space side is a lot easier and potentially more efficient if the kernel interface can be changed without breaking compatibility.
The list of banned books is incomplete.

>After years of silence, Twitch announced on Tuesday that it’s banning the streaming of unregulated gambling on its platform. It’s about damn time.

i don't understand the comments here about censorship. is Twitch above the laws?
Unless you can make a compelling case that gambling is speech I'm not really sure you could call it censorship unless you really stretch it. I think the best you can say is that it's a private company enforcing gambling rules in their little fifedom that are more strict the laws of their enclosing regulatory environment.
99% fine here too
Book bans just feel silly and antiquated in the age of the Internet. If kids want to read something, they can get it on their phones—that and probably much worse than anything that would ever end up in any school library.
This articulates why I became disillusioned. The fantasy described in the beginning is what I typically see in solarpunk literature, which is just as unrealistic.

I find myself with a lot more optimism about what comes out of permaculture design. Whether permaculture design and regenerative paradigms ultimately can help, still requires us to change our way of life.

Now, no one is going to that. I think most people want to cling to the fundamentals of their way of life. Even giving up fossil fuels for “green energy” is giving up something more superficial while still clinging to the fantasy of unlimited, on-demand energy. Nothing fundamental has changed about the way of life or the world view that goes with it.

Fortunately, for me at least, I think a found a path that works even if most people don’t want to climb on board.

Naively, if our EROI halves, then we should be at worst half as rich, right? If that's the case then (again, very naively) you might expect that we would "merely" have to accept an average standard of living from when the world was half as rich, which would be about 2003-2004.Now, the world was much more very unevenly developed in 2003, so that doesn't mean rich countries won't have to come down while poor ones come up, but it doesn't sound apocalyptic to return to the Bush years in terms of wealth.

That said, I think the naive interpretation is wrong. IMO most of the wealth we've been creating since the 19th century is mainly about the task of applying cheap energy to new problems: perfecting power looms, artificial fertilizer, transportation, etc. If the energy becomes twice as expensive, it's not clear that we would only be half as rich. We might in fact be much much poorer than our ancestors were before the cheap energy, because the biosphere (our previous primary source of low-entropy raw material) is in far worse shape than it was in 1800 and needs to support many more people.

One hope is that green energy can actually exceed the EROI of fossil energy. If we can get high-efficiency, long-life (don't have to replace it for 100 years or more) PV, then it should be pretty easy to exceed fossil fuels' EROI. You have to dig more coal for every unit of coal-fired work, whereas you can manufacture a solar panel once and let it do unlimited units of work as long as it exists and the sun is shining.
