That's great. I had a conversation with the owner of rsync.net about why they require zfs-enabled customers run on a separate bhyve VM (thus requiring a large minimum). Iirc it boils down to zfs destroy permissions somehow affecting other tenants. I see mention of zfs destroy in the linked patch, I'm curious how that relates to rsync's experience and requirements.

It's more gun deaths in the US.

If you compare to Canada which, compared to all Western countries besides the US, has comparatively lax gun laws and high firearms ownership rates and a similar overall culture:

* US sees 12.21 firearms deaths per capita per year to Canada's 1.94.
* US sees 4.46 homicides via firearm per capita per year to Canada's 0.52.

(The UK stacks up at 0.20 and 0.02, so significantly lower still.)

This pattern holds over basically all numbers relating to rates of violence at every level of division.
I think they aren't in effect yet, but were announced in this blog post from last week: https://blog.heroku.com/new-low-cost-plans

I am not sure if it will meet your expectations though, it doesn't really provide something much cheaper than 7/month or for an always-on production service. As I see it, the "eco" dyno is mainly a way to more easily save money with transient dynos (used for things other than production services) -- it does meet your concern about hobby dynos not sleeping though!

There's also a new cheaper very limited postgres corresponding to the previous free postgres.
All the handwringing about stifling innovation is on its face ridiculous as mandates to use micro-usb didn't stop android phones from adopting the new and better standard as soon as it was viable.

I'm not sure I understand your logic here. Android phones were able to quickly move to micro USB because they weren't restricted from doing so by a government regulation.

If there was a government mandate requiring phones to have whatever connector came before micro USB, wouldn't that have prevented the Android phones from changing connectors/choosing the new innovation?

Or was there a location where micro USB was required by law before, and since I don't live there, I wasn't affected by it?

Edit: Strike that last sentence, since I see in other responses that there was, indeed, a location where micro USB was mandated. So my new question is: How does a company change to a new/better connector, if it's required by law to use an old connector?

Edit edit: Looks like other responses show there was no mandate, that's just something that people on HN assume. It was a recommendation, not a law, like it is now.

> You can already buy non-Apple branded lightning cables.

Lightening cables are not a standard and thus Apple dictates terms even with non-Apple lightening cables. As lightening cables are not an industry standard the prices are influenced by Apple and artificially inflated (even for non-Apple ones). And they can only be used with Apple devices. (Lightening cables have seen a recent price fall only after Apple shifted to USB-C for some iDevices, as the market fears Apple is already preparing to switch to USB-C).

USB-C cables will be even cheaper in the future as they are standardised, and since they can be used with multiple devices (due to such regulations) you need to buy fewer of them too.
This is a great example in that residential electrical systems evolve at a snails pace. There's almost no innovation and most houses are full of dangerous legacy systems because regulation makes updating difficult and expensive.

Also of note: you aren't required by national or state law to use any kind of electrical system in the U.S. The National Electric Code is not a binding document. It's up to individual municipalities to decide whether they want to adopt it (or some other standard, which they're free to do).
I'm sure the EU isn't single-threaded.
Fair point, but my lived experience of USB-C is that several of my Micro-USB cables dotted around now have little converter heads added. My tablets and battery packs (and other gizmos) still need the Micro-USB port so I can't just replace the cables.

Yes, being able to plug in the connector both ways around is nice, but it wasn't that inconvenient not to be able to do that, especially when put against the inconvenience of needing these extra heads.

I can certainly imagine someone having similar frustrations when Mini-USB gave way to Micro-USB. I can only hope that when USB-D connectors come around, there's more than only small incremental improvements to get me on board.
And just like that, 100s of 3rd party devices become obsolete and worthless.
Good point. Early release access definitely seems like an almost separate use case bundled with the "Buy" feature, but like you mention most people aren't doing this to buy the movie but to watch it earlier.
The friction you are overlooking would be, e.g., the platform to sell the media and the likely cost to do so. Not only that, but you are also not aware of the fraudulent price that is charged for the media now precisely because the market is a monopolistic fraud. If movies were priced at what they are really worth, they would be some … and easily significantly … lower lower price, e.g., $.50 rent and $2 to buy.

If you want to evaluate how much the movies/content is really worth, just take the price you pay for a streaming service and divide it by the content you consume.

For example; $5 month, divided by 80 hours of viewing (which seems low for most) and you come to $0.06 per hour, or about $0.12 per movie. Using this conservative estimate, are you going to bother selling a digital movie for less than $0.12? No. But that is precisely why the industry has monopolized the market and added DRM, because they want to keep their fraudulent scheme going to deprive people of their earnings.

But what it’s really about is, as instituting a new form of slavery where you are given everything for “free” just like like slave of all other eras, but you are deprived of far more at a far greater intangible cost for it.
This assumes that you would fallen in love if you met earlier which isn’t a good assumption.

It is a fun exercise though and pretty cute to do.
Welp, UUCP still works.
4 words that explain why, if I ever wanted to collect movies, they would all be DRM-free torrents.

When the "legal" way to do it is self-evidently a scam perpetuated by corporations and governments working together against our interests, then they only honourable ways are either to watch illegal downloads or not watch movies at all.
They probably can, but PayPal is actively working to make it seem like they can't. All part of their craft.

Have you seen this outside Italy? Everywhere else in Europe I've always seen the Europlug, it's only Italy where sometimes you have the weird 3-in-a-line plug, at least in Western Europe
It will not, the previous one didn't either.
Are you old enough to remember the early 2000s when every phone and portable media player had it's own charger, which often wasn't even transferable between devices by the same manufacturer? It led to lots of old chargers when devices were replaced, which were useless for anything else (I remember having bags of cables and chargers). And if you wanted a second charger for whatever reason (this was before you needed to charge your device every 3 hours), you needed to find the specific charger for your device. If it was a few years old, it might not even be possible to purchase one.

Then almost by magic everyone switched to micro USB. You could charge different devices from different manufacturers with the same cable. This wasn't some feat of magic, it was because the European Commission worked to bring manufacturers to an agreement on a common charging standard.

Well, everyone except Apple, who did actually sign the agreement. They just decided to bundle a dongle to be compliant.

Mini-USB was introduced in 2000, so manufactures had plenty of time to choose a common interface themselves, but decided not to.

Even amongst Apple's own devices it is a mess. To charge an Apple Pencil with an iPad Pro you need not one, but two adapters.
Was that a question? Of course not. In fact the parent comment even provides an example.
Presumably this is why the cloud/hosted version OP is working on has a good chance of being profitable. Open source means it's hostable as a backup plan, but the cloud version is there for those who want the convenience.
This is the same technology used by Google, Facebook, Linkedin, Pinterest, Snapchat, and Twitter. There are other services like Clearbit that offer just the data part of this, without the social media network attached. Every major ad network does this.

There is nothing unique about TikTok's tracking implementations other than how much data they attempt to take in.
Correct! In fact it can even help innovation.
For my hobby programming and other tech projects, to record my learnings I use a traditional blog hosted at a low-friction blogging platform. I post frequently but not always daily. These posts report on my experiences, the issues I face, the solutions or workarounds I come up with, and so on. The blog is a valuable reference resource for me.
Film grain is a funny topic... if it was the original look then it can be considered highest quality/fidelity to retain it. Filtering it makes for easier video compression.
Have fun.

Seriously, stop trying to be focused and give yourself permission to enjoy life. This is key, giving yourself permission. Right now you are trying to hustle, you are trying to optimize, but you need to give yourself permission to just stop trying to optimize everything.

Explore, try new things, and don't settle on anything. Just live.

Most importantly, go out and try new things. Even things you might not otherwise have wanted to try. There are countless free classes out there where you can go spend a couple hours after work and learn something new. You don't have to stick it out, but this gets you out of the house and trying new things without any expectation. You'll meet new people, and while you might not make new friends, you might as well.

This is from personal experience. I believe you need to give yourself permission to just exist. Taking time off is pointless if you don't give yourself permission to just relax and enjoy.

Anyways, that's what helped me.
Knowing google they'd have 6 competing dystopian nightmare programs running concurrently. All would have similar names.

Locally hosted PBX SIP Trunk suggestions? VoicePulse ending service
Having just moved us to their newer service offering, FIVE, VoicePulse is apparently now ending that service as well. We just received another mildly confusing e-mail stating that we need to port the numbers out now if not sooner.

Do any HN readers have good experiences with an inexpensive SIP trunk provider that works with an on-premises FreePBX install?
Bell Labs allowed others to produce transistor based hearing aids royalty free. Volvo allowed others to use a 3-point harness system royalty free. Apple created Lightning to solve a problem and wanted royalties on all products using it. Naturally, the market moved to another solution.

While Lightning may be a good piece of technology, I think Apple is largely to blame for its demise. Standardization is good for consumers. Apple had control over its fate. I don’t blame them for wanting to collect royalties, but they were the only major manufacturer on the market not playing ball with a standardized port. Yet even their other products use USB-C, and the MacBook was actually an early adopter.

Accordingly, I don’t think this law eliminates competition. It brings simplification to consumers for a simple, boring port that can now be shared with many of their other goods and a single cable.
Why are you assuming that people will live in poverty if we address historical injustices? I’ve addressed this elsewhere but if that were to occur we would have failed at righting these wrongs and invest even more resources to correct this wrong if we had done it correctly the first time. Poverty in America is a governmental failure, and in some cases is intentional (racism is behind the intentional subjugation of these people, see the Nixon tapes as one example) or the result of bad governance and a political process corrupted by greedy people and those driven by hate or delusions to deny reality.

I don’t think you understand what rehabilitation entails, America, as a general rule, does not facilitate rehabilitation so it is outside our cultural knowledge. Generally speaking this rehabilitation in practice looks like restorative Justice. Punitive systems lead to worse societal outcomes. Undertaking a restorative Justice project for victims of American subjugation would require actions like paying restitution, expunging criminal records, drawing the architects and agents of these systems of repression under charges for their crimes, returning land stolen from indigenous peoples, etc.

This is not the gotcha you think it is, and if you’re going to refer to a small minority of a demographic you should name them so it doesn’t seem like you’re moving the goalposts when I take you at your words. Police brutality is not a subject up for debate, this term refers to police using force in excess of what they were trained to do. A severe problem in police departments across the country fostered by a toxic culture and poor oversight. What Nigerian or any Americans think about it is a pointless exercise. Either we hold violent criminals to account or we don’t. In America some violent criminals are excessively punished, others are not punished at all and instead celebrated for mercilessly assaulting the right people. These are systemic failures.

enforced victim hood mentality is a racist dog whistle and I’m not going to engage with you further if you can’t help but use hateful language. This article could be helpful in your understanding, however you will need to do the work of relating their examples to America and considering the adjustments to your outlook needed to drop the dog whistles and underlying prejudices.

What term would you use instead of shadowban when one or more entities are blocking a person (or in this case a company) and access to their website without revealing why the block was in place in a transparent manner?

The aggrieved party has filed a Right to Information petition with the Indian government agency (equivalent to a Freedom of Information Act request under US law).

I think the term is appropriate esp. since some ISPs are not blocking it.
...Britannia a knife crime problem because good people can't kill the bad ones from range...you snowflakes are insane!
Yes, it won't. As parent points out, the EU previously mandated micro-usb support (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Common_external_power_supply) which worked fairly well, and hasn't stifled the innovation that's resulted in USB-C.
Babylon Bee is probably among the least dangerous of modern conservatism. Babylon Bee writers themselves have been known to admit they have a really hard time writing anything decent.

The same could be said though of DVD. Remember that DVD is completely proprietary - we've just done a fantastic job reverse-engineering it. Blu-ray, ironically, is still proprietary, but the specification on how the DRM is implemented is actually public information and you can just download that online. You won't get the required encryption key for your new device without a contract though for it to work, but if you want to read the details, that's fine.

Ultimately, if all the manufacturers decide to stop sale, there's nothing you can do about that. I'm not too worried about Blu-ray yet, as it is still in the PS5 and Xbox Series X, and I don't think gamers will be excited about losing physical media as an option (considering PS5 with Disc has outsold the Disc-free version, like, 4-1).
>So far as I know there’s no ADHD blood or other objective test.

There's a few genes that have been found to be responsible/correlate strongly i believe but I assume genotyping goes a bit far for common diagnosis.

I'm sure it's not the same for everyone that's diagnosed tho and there's a good amount of misdiagnosis too.
> If there was a government mandate requiring phones to have whatever connector came before micro USB, wouldn't that have prevented the Android phones from changing connectors/choosing the new innovation?

Dunno, we have a test case tho: how'd the Micro-B to USB-C transition go in EU markets?
> To give some old-school examples, how differently might industrialization have gone if rail systems weren't mandated to operate under some shared standards?

I'm not sure that analogy holds particularly well. The UK did build rail systems without shared standards, and only standardised on gauge in 1846, which was very late in the industrial revolution: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Gauge_War - Standards for other things like signalling also came late, and broad gauge was still in use until 1892. (Notably though, this did happen just at the turn of Railway Mania, so affected a lot of the new lines.)

Effectively, the UK let (mainly by omission, not intentionally) the solutions compete and then selected the most broadly used solution to standardise on.

(I'd love to see any scholarly research on this though; I haven't seen a huge degree of it. Obviously things are different outside of the UK, but given it's where (uncoincidentally) both the industrial revolution and railways were born, that's the clear case to look at.)
I disagree.

Certain systems are more efficient if they operate with high trust. The TTC is one of the places where we go with the more efficient option that allows defectors to gain at the cost of others. I actually know someone that is a communist and refuses to pay TTC fare on the basis that he thinks it should be completely socialized. He estimated that the one time he got a ticket paid for only 1/3rd or 1/5th of his total usage.

In other words, defectors are still net-ahead. The system is under-policed.

But the small amount of policing that exists exerts enough social pressure to stop widespread flouting of the rules. I was happy to provide proof that my very-soon-to-be-expiring transfer was from a valid trip.

I'm sorry that you've had a poor interaction with an officer, but I think it's partially a matter of how one treats officers. Even when I've been in the wrong, I did my best to treat them with respect and I quite honestly have been treated well by every police I've dealt with, save one exception when I was pulled over in America. I accept that this happens, and a curt reply and a stiff ticket is not the end of the world and I am happy to have largely lived and traveled in places where the police were civil.

And related to this, don't get discouraged if it ISN'T ADHD and medication for it doesn't help.

I thought I had ADHD and was frustrated as to why medication made it worse until I discovered I actually have PTSD + crippling anxiety that meant I avoided stability because I didn't trust it and 'flight'/taking on a new identity is one of my preferred 'fight, flight, freeze, fawn' responses. Basically my body only knows how to exist in chaotic environments.
