Lack of ads IS the killer feature for me. What I use an iPhone for could just as easily be done by Android.

If Apple is enthusiastically running towards the ads hellscape then it might be time to get one of those Linux phones and start developing some apps for it. I need less than 10 apps for it to be a viable replacement, or if it get's really bad then I could make do with even less.
Some arguments would be nice…
From your source, you chose the the one that's near the bottom of the milk production range. If you're trying to make money with a dairy goat, Alpine or Saanen would be better options.

> A goat farmer can earn $8 to $12 per gallon. The most profitable dairy goat breed is the Saanen, in which you can profit up to $36 per day.

From https://backyardgoats.iamcountryside.com/goat-breeds/nubian-...

> Productivity: Average 6.6 lb. (3.9 kg) milk per day/1920 lb. (871 kg) over 305 days with 4.8% butterfat and 3.5% protein. ... Although yield is lower than for most dairy breeds, the high levels of milk solids impart a rich flavor and improve coagulation, making it an ideal constituent for making goats’ cheese.

Compare with https://backyardgoats.iamcountryside.com/goat-breeds/saanen-...

(digging) - this gets to https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1755-1315/640/3/0... - the saanen appears to be about 15% - 30% more milk in the same time frame depending on the source.

The "sample dairy goat budget" on the page you provided is an interesting resource.

The price for goat milk - https://milklife.com/articles/nutrition/differences-between-...

> ... For about a quarter per 8-ounce glass, cow milk offers more nutritional value than just about any other beverage you can buy at this price. Goat milk is nearly five times more expensive, ringing up for $1.24 per 8-ounce glass.

The budget worksheet puts the milk at $6.50/gallon.

My math was based on a that very rough $36/doe/day math without accounting for expenses. I was interested in the "is the herd size a dozen? two dozen? or a hundred? ... in order to live ok?"

The worksheet puts a rough estimate of the total receipts which the worksheet puts at $1,323.10/doe/year.

The returns over variable costs per doe per year is $359.01 and returns to management is $225.72.
“Really isn’t worth it” - hearsay. It totally is. Also - power shell is better for long scripts, you say, but what are you going to use for short ones?

Flagged articles aren't removed or shaded differently on this alternative frontend, which is a huge waste of time.
The problem seems to be more fundamental. Attention is not inherently bad, the issue is how and what kind of attention is rewarded. Many platforms reward engagement of attention seeking behaviour, both good and particularly bad ones, as it easily evokes primal emotions in the audience. And so there is incentives for content creators to continue peddling shitty content.
Sorry for unrelated but I've been curious about this for the last few days! Does anyone know why when I have an alias like

It still shows python 3.9 if I do print(sys.version)
Humans ... us people things, etc ... are prone to our most immediate concerns. It used to be that predators were our concern, now its social media. We react, we make noises, we continue. The unfortunate thing is that there are no lions to take out the weak anymore.
I read book samples on the Kindle app, and then order the hard copy if it’s good. It struck me that it would be amazing if Amazon gave me the full Kindle version until the hard copy book delivers. I ordered hard copy Saturday and it doesn't deliver until Wednesday. A long wait for a page-turner.

Ask HN: Is there an open source database like this?
1. Has multi-group Raft like CockroachDB.

2. Can be columnar and supports SIMD vectorized queries.

3. Has many useful indexes like bitmap, skip list, & full text inverted index.

4. Separate compute & storage. It stores cold data on blob stores like S3. Even better if the compute is serverless.

5. Can query external tables stored in Iceberg, similar to Trino.

6. You can perform all these in a nice unified SQL dialect.
In a non-compounding pharmacy (which is what most pharmacies are now days) I presume they are not making pills or capsules. So one could eliminate almost all of the chain if pills just came pre-packaged in containers closer to what is given to the consumer. I.e.: put this stuff in small jars at the factory with a machine.

I expect that there will be only half a dozen different models. They will all be bland and black. But to you point, they will support fashion accessories. Sort of like fashion smartphone cases. Some people will be fine with bland and black.
The problem is the google chart puts the zero line for the two stocks at their IPO date even though they have different IPO dates, as almost any two stocks you choose to compare would. If you're going to compare the two stocks at the same point in time, they should probably be both at zero on the first day when they both have a price, as Yahoo's chart does (switch to 5Y).

I'm scratching my head trying to figure out why Google Finance would graph stocks this way. The only thing I can think is they didn't consider the intersection of "comparing stocks" and "they might have IPOed in the time range".
There's also now an open source recreation of the original client, all written in C# that actually uses a GPU so it renders 4k at 250fps instead of 800x600 at 12.5fps. It's a very mature and stable reproduction at this point.

> if you want your distributed database to generate unique identifiers, partition the id space so each node is guaranteed not to overlap. You trust to nodes so you don’t need blockchain.

You can also generate unique IDs by giving each server/node a unique hash and then use (node_id,1), (node_id,2), ... etc. Its more complex this way but this approach compresses way better if you have a lot of IDs. (Thanks Martin Kleppmann for this trick)
Interesting it took them this long to purse the opportunity here.

Something like 10-20 drugs make up like 80% of the maintenance meds dispensed in the US daily.

Supply chain efficiencies like this were monetized 20+ years ago by most of the major PBMs/health plans (look at their 'mail order dispensing pharmacies' to see them in action).

Doing a regionalized fulfillment play for your high volume geographies will likely save hundreds of millions in opex i'm guessing.

Will be curious to see if WBA can scale as quickly as they want here. I'm sure there are many industry partners who could lend a hand :)

> How would structure your dating app to be different?

Honestly I dont know. But here's an idea that came to mind.

Men pay per swipe. (men tend to over swipe and inundate women with messages, make them not.

Perhaps also women receive a token amount for showing up to a date, not ghosting as reported by the man. (Ghosting is a real thing unfortunately. It being a token amount means no sane women would endanger herself to get the token, but it might be enough to say, cover the first drink or part of the uber ride there) .

The current political climate probably wouldn't allow functionality required to optimize the cisgender heterosexual experience. (Because that would require taking a stance about gender differences and designing systems that are suboptimal for other dating patterns) .

I avoid synthetic fabrics to begin with because in a fire they turn to melted plastic and cause instant 3rd degree burns. Natural fabrics will char, protecting you a little bit in the process, and simply not make your injuries any worse. This spray fabric is sure to be far worse, an absolute nightmare in the event of fire.
Remember that US prices include health insurance, I’m not sure the EU ones do (for state-provided healthcare). I’m not sure how the account labor costs.

Google Hacking vs. Criminal IP
In the era of anti tracking, Amazon doesn’t need to worry about it. It’s knows what consumer preferences based on “revealed preferences” - what people buy. It’s a “strategy credit”.

Amazon also created its own line of devices and its own fork of Android and replaces Google Play Services APIs with its own. But how many applications are successful distributing only on Amazon’s Android store? How many western developers are going to bypass Google Play Store?
Very likely, Brazil has the same issue. An iPhone 14 is R$ 7599, basically double the US$ 799 price tag.
For those that don't know, "William the Conqueror" is also known as "William the Bastard".

This was not the name used by my school teachers and I just wonder how different history lessons would have been had this name been used.

The Normans were Vikings that 'co-opted' the women in Normandy to become 'Normans'. Not the first empire to expand with rape and pillage, but it is interesting how British history accommodates all of this with that tapestry that makes Harold a weak guy with an arrow in his eye.

The City of London is a tax haven. It is the interface between all those British dependencies where taxation is not normal and everything is a 'holding company'.
Jupyter runs a "kernel" as a child process that actually runs the code in your notebooks. The python version that runs Jupyter can be/is different from the kernel python version.
Any way to deactivate that feature?
As a huge fan and experienced implementer of merkle trees in my modern work I really wish I had known what they were at the time :)

Merkle trees don’t solve the forgeability issue, just the unbroken chain of what you currently have. So, if you have control over the server you can just create a set of events with your “+5 billion gold” event injected in it, recalculate the tree and root and voila: forgery.

PoW doesn’t prevent this, it just adds computational time provably spent between the events so that if you DID try to inject a false record a year ago you’d have to spend that same amount of time calculating the resulting merkle tree.

Merkle trees all the way down!
Are 1 UO gold coins even individually addressable?

Kinda strange and related but one of my first “wow cool” memories of working life was working at a company where we used Unix/Linux servers as workstations. Yeah big iron HP/DEC/Sun boxes.

So anyway my co-worker did a for loop directly as a CLI command, probably using Tcsh at the time but it stuck with me.

It was like a “wow you can just”:

for F in `seq 1 10`; do
echo $F
done

And it stuck with me because he used variable F and to this day that’s my go to variable when just blurting out a bash/zsh for loop at the CLI.
This is essentially what they do. A console detected running modified software gets banned from PSN.
So, it varies, and is loosely coupled at best, even looking from a macro-level.

The problem I see is that while students have enormous incentive to match a company's standard, companies have very little incentive to be a part of that process.

A student pursuing a degree in a larger pursuit of a career is faced with a founder's dilemma. They shoulder all of the risk of failure, and have no recourse. It isn't a company's problem if they aren't trained properly, nor is it a professor's. When starting a company founders are able to seek funding and declare bankruptcy, but students are expected to take out loans that cannot be defaulted on.

If the macro-level goal is a highly trained, highly effective workforce, then why aren't students supported in pursuing training by any of the institutionsthey interact with on that macro level?
Ah the classic: it’s worse elsewhere so we don’t need to look in the mirror and be accountable for our actions; out of hand dismissal. Just because you’re not ready to look in the mirror does not give you the right to stop others. I hope you get there soon.

I’m not blaming white people as a monolith, but that seems to be what you want to interpret from my post. Telling. I’m blaming the people who made the choice to hurt others, see the bit above about without respect to one’s status, wealth ,or demographics. I meant that. All bad actors should be rehabilitated or imprisoned. Black white pink, gay straight trans or female, or Democrat. These things do not matter for the purposes of identifying bad actors.

Have you no capacity to emphasize with others? It seems you don’t. Minimization, and suggesting victims of state sponsored abuses should shut up and take it because America seems better than your cherry picked examples? Have a long face to face conversation with someone that repulses you just listen while they tell about their life. Imagine yourself in their shoes.

What qualifies you to make sweeping off the cuff assertions about all black Americans? Have you any similar assertions for gay Americans? Lesbian Americans? Trans Americans? Japanese Americans? Korean Americans? Irish Americans? Catholic Americans? Indigenous Americans? American communists/socialists/anarchists? I’d love to hear more of your hot takes on what these large and homogenous populations need to heal.

That's probably the first time I see a java web framework api that actually makes me want to try it.
It does, but account creation is kind of slow, and the whole control tower / SSO / etc. stuff is fairly janky. Clearly Amazon have been trying to make the account a more common level of isolation for some time and it's improving, but it's still not fantastic. Support also still has a minimum monthly pricing and isn't cross-account.
I worked at one company where our build engineer wrote 7500 lines of exceedingly complex Bash code to analyze our source tree and identify "code owners" - i.e. whoever had worked the most on each directory and was most familiar with it.

I asked him about it, and he said, "It is a lot of code, but it does a lot. And if I'd written it in C++ it would have been a lot more code than that!"

We were a Python shop.

Probably not a popular opinion, but I think we can do away with the vast majority of pharmacist. There are machines that can properly identify, sort, bottle, label, and provide prescriptions with little to no human intervention.

I think you're thinking about corporate/org-scale attention seeking. Putting things into historical context, getting attention today is certainly easier for a random individual. In fact anyone could directly compete with large organisations and even surpass them in some cases.

Totally true.

There is a saying, no product survives first contact with customers. You state you finished it, but we all know that software is never complete.

You need to get over the fear and not tie the reception of your product to your personal perspective of self worth. The reception of your product is not a reflection of you.

More important than the initial release is how you receive feedback and criticism, and then adjust your product.

Let me know if anything.
Because as you skip pages with most pagination implimentations the DB has to scan more index keys. If they allowed paginating so far, without some kind of expensive preaggregation, you could easily create a DDOS attack.

?afterId=x will perform much better than page based pagination and doesn't have this problem as much, but it can still cause undesired io and cache activity in the DB when you start paginating a lot to unpopular content.
Ukraine tank breakthrough in south towards Kherson
I was a bash sympathizer until a post made the rounds about how, even if you `set -euxo pipefail`, `declare x="$(err)"` will silently eat the return code of the subshell. This applies to `local` too, and tbf is mentioned somewhat offhandedly on some man page, but was the straw that solidified my opinion. There's just no reasonable way that even an experienced user of Bash (ie. the kinds of folks who think that set command has them covered) could be expected to know about this footgun. The solution is to always declare and assign variables separately. Still use it all the time, and I guess "now I know", but, wtf Bash. Safety options are poorly bolted on.
No, stacks are stacks. They’re an object id with a quantity counter. Each stack, however, was capable of holding its own separate script and objvars; there were event triggers to handle special cases like “onStackAdd” and such.

Discussions about syntax devolve rather quickly into arguing about sources, because there are so few studies done and everyone has an opinion (or cause). Bash syntax is horrid and that's enough for me.

Just wait a couple decades and languages slowly improve or they die. Sometimes it takes a long time (in comparison to a person's lifespan) and that's ok.

Lossless formats work great for some content categories (e.g. audio, images), while others (e.g. film) are more practically archived using formats designed with archival purposes in mind (e.g. ProRes 4444/4444 XQ).
Perhaps you haven't, but what are your customers doing? Even if you're not directly building ad products, you're likely not far removed from the businesses that are.

I'm not trying to make an excuses here, I'm simply pointing out that the entire foundation of the internet economy is built on the premise that what you do on the network can and should be tracked for profit, and to complain about one of the wealthiest companies on the planet finally in the game demonstrates naivety. Business does not care about morals, business cares about making money. That is how businesses are incentivized to behave. There's no legitimate counteracting force (sorry but individuals angrily venting frustration on an internet forum is not a threat to their business) to motivate Apple to behave any differently. They know that they just need to keep providing a better service than the alternatives and as long as the ads are slightly less crappy than Android, people aren't going to leave Apple.
