I'm aware of Pleroma, but didn't mention it because I find that allthough it's easier than mastodon, it hardly is simpler. And being easier, IMO, isn't enough. The focus of pleroma is very much on the "lightweight" part. Which is good, bc that also desparately needs a solution. But we really need something that is all of it: easy, simple and lightweight. Not just easier and lightweight.

Pick-and-choose taxes are a terrible idea for the simple reason that they're very easy to weaponize.

If some guy walks into your government office and says he'll give you ten million dollars to increase everyones' salaries, but only if you arrest all the homeless people on his street, you just created a perverse incentive. You can claim that anti-bribery laws fix this, but it's a who watches the watcher problem. To be clear, regular government has this problem too in the form of political donations and lobbying, but removing even the thin veneer of legitimacy that our current taxation system has (where you can't opt out of paying for social safety nets or into specific initiatives) makes open bribery almost inevitable.

Show HN: Generate PDFs at Scale on Kubernetes Using OpenFaaS and Puppeteer
I've had a few calls with users recently who are moving from AWS Lambda to bare Kubernetes, and struggling to get this kind of working scaling right for them. So we sat down and put together an example to show how it could be done.

Why is this Show HN? It's a code example, it's something we wrote that didn't exist before in this way and you can run it and try it out. We also added a detailed write-up that we're posting here.

Disclaimer: we both work at OpenFaaS Ltd and maintain the OSS project full time.

My reading of the paper is that the new 4x4 algorithm only works in Z/(2), where there are no issues of roundoff errors. (Z/(2) is the field of integers modulo 2.) The paper seems to say that for real numbers, Strassen is still the best known algorithm for the 4x4 case.

What do you mean by irregular or inconsistent? That some substances extremely harmful to society are loosely regulated while mostly innocuous ones put people in prison? That is troublesome. But if you mean variation by state, I think that is normal and should be moreso. I like my content labels, but I don't understand why the protection of interstate commerce means the FDA gets to tell my doctor which drugs they can prescribe for which conditions. Federal prohibition of alcohol required an amendment. The federal prohibition on any substance for any reason should require the same. There are plenty of items that are contraband in one state but not the next, that is no reason to ignore explicit limits on federal power.

In 2017, I finally--courageously, in my opinion at the time--decided not to subject myself to my dad at Christmastime and bailed on a trip to see family for Christmas.

Only a few days after Christmas, my sister, who was 8 months pregnant, died very suddenly and with no warning.

I missed my last chance to see her alive, and I wound up spending a month staying with my parents anyway immediately after that, trying to help them manage.

With the information I had when I made the decision, I still think it was the right one, and I'm reasonably sure I would make it again with the same amount of information.

But I'll always wish I had made it differently anyway.

Thanks for the answer! The blog has visitors from other geographic locations (both in EU and outside EU). Those visitors also post comments with their names included in comments. Those comments are then made available on the internet. So I am doubtful if it falls in purely personal use category.

It's because it's not easy to catch up. In some cases, it can actually be impossible. Particularly if issues such as embargoes, sanctions and/or blockades can functionally block access to required equipment or talent. For example, it'd be hard to bring a new fab online when the ships or planes carrying the fabrication equipment get blown up.

Take a look at how Russia attempted and failed to scale up semiconductor fabrication into the 1980s and 1990s. They weren't 2 nodes back. They were WAY further back than that, and even today are still struggling to bring online nationally-developed fabrication technology of which the equivalent has existed elsewhere for 20-30 years.

China's SMIC is going to be bringing on "7nm" soon, despite being unable to purchase EUV equipment due to sales embargo. I can't imagine the effort that was required to make 193nm DUV machines produce chips reliably with a "7nm" feature size. EUV isn't required, but it surely makes things much easier.

We keep seeing more and more abstractions, but unfortunately they are the wrong abstractions. We need working process isolation, not endless VMs inside other VMs. We need a logical layer on top of TCP/IP, not crazy complicated VPN schemes. Etc. This is completely obvious to some people, and seems completely incomprehensible to others. Unfortunately, the companies with resources are mostly staffed with the latter.

> The fediverse needs this as well: just plop a binary on your VPS or homeserver and you're running. Such lean and simple servers are being worked on, but Mastodon itself is a huge, slow and hairy beast.

Even if you get the tech stack solved to an easily deployable package: The problem is you still need to invest immense amounts of time on moderation. Some of that responsibility is enforced legally (e.g. CSAM, warez, US COPPA, EU GDPR, German NetzDG), some of it socially (e.g. kicking Nazis, conspiracy spreaders or other forms of hate speech out), some of it by the federation system (e.g. kicking spammers out) and some of it you need to do to keep your community healthy (e.g. kick general trolls and creeps out). If your instance allows adult material, gambling or games, you'll need to moderate your instance as well in some jurisdictions. And you'll need someone always available to support police, court and secret service requests.

Maintaining a service that hosts user-generated content is a thankless nightmare, and no matter what you do it is a huge liability. In the end, either you make your users pay for it in cash (subscription fees, patreon/gofundme/paypal donations), with their data (advertising) or you'll eventually burn out (such as the author of the blog entry).

Oh, and add on top of all of that the constant dealing with abuse: 4chan edgelords DDoS'ing your instance "for the lulz", random skiddies constantly running exploit scans against your server (which additionally means you have to have someone 24/7 to upgrade software in the case of a 0-day), people reporting your server / IP to blocklists to get you booted off the net... then you have to take care of hardware maintenance itself, making backups, testing backups. It's a full time job essentially, requiring an awful lot of time, money and connections (e.g. lawyers).

I don't really care about your argument here. Mine is very simple. If you write a crap sentence a good editor will flag that sentence for being crap. Maybe the editor cared about ideology. Maybe they did not. But if they didn't flag that sentence they would be a bad editor. Because it was a bad sentence. For us to assume that there is additional reasoning behind it would be pure conjecture.

It's not a convincing piece of evidence to point out that an editor removed a nonsense statement as evidence that the editor has ideological motivations. It's not proof that they don't have ideological motivations. It's just an irrelevant edit of a bad phrase.

This feels like the classic Community scene in which Chang is trying to pitch "Bear Down for Midterms" as the school's slogan, and everyone says "What does that mean?" to which he tries to defend by asking if their issues with it are a race thing.

I should have given web development in the 90s my complete attention while in high school but thought it was too complicated and too great a challenge. There weren't as many resources to learn from and I didn't have access to mentors. I didn't have any idea what was involved with the work. I regret not trying. I had the interest and the time.
I can definitely understand not realizing that you could lose access to your account if you lose your phone number. But once it happens the first time, could you not pick any free email that does not require 2FA, and warn fellow homeless to avoid gmail?

I disagree with the idea that because a very, very niche audience is in dire straits that the design decisions should be based on their needs. The forced 2FA system has probably prevented identify theft and financial loss for a very large number of people. I'm saying this as someone who thinks Google is a shady and dangerous entity in general.

It's similar to the idea that hard cases make bad law.

Rather then measure expertise with practice (subjective), I feel like it’s much more productive to measure it with time spent (objective, hence 10k hours) on it.

Time spent feels much less stressful than “I’ve practiced heavily regularly”.

Since humans inevitably improve with repetitions or practice, it’s less scary (for me or imo) to just “put in time” versus “practice” to get possibly better or intimidated by what’s “enough expertise”

My condolences to the admin, this is sad news.

This strengthens my conviction that federation is a bad architecture for something like Mastodon. A fully distributed system, urbit being the easiest to try right now, can't stick someone with the responsibility to keep a bunch of other people online. It can't stick those people with the responsibility to move off the server. Each user runs a server process, locally or on a remote machine. If any of those goes offline, all the services and data it was providing are gone, but no other user accounts are affected.

Federation works fine for Matrix, although I still think the full peer architecture will dominate long-term. It's less disruptive to something like chat to switch user names because a homeserver shuts down.

Mastodon instances get linked into, and all those links are going to break. Running a redirect for those URLs to the numerous new account homes is impractical given that a lack of time and commitment to server maintenance is the issue.
I am afraid it is a lost battle for now.

On the high end only Sony offers a jack on the Xperia 1 and Xperia 5. Everyone else abandoned it.

Mostly true, but John Deere is currently not able to prevent farmers from repairing their own tractors, per the exemption granted to the Librarian of Congress. This exemption must be actively petitioned for renewal every three years.
London has an interesting climate - despite being fairly far north it doesn't get that cold in winter. It is common there to not have whole house heating. Norway isn't far London, but it is enough worse a climate that pretty much everyone has some form of central heating and keeps their house warm year round.

For this discussion is means that in London the indoor climate is livable, but terrible for trying clothes, while in Norway the indoor climate is nice and drying clothes indoors is helpful for adding humidity.

In that particular example, regret would be justified, as it would be a remainder not to listen to the bad advisor.

However, if, at some point, both advisors decided to leave and never come back, and you started thinking about how one of them always gave you wrong advice, and regretting listening to him, then that regret is pointless.

This is not just the homeless, there was a post on HN from a librarian talking about the same issues for the elderly and socially disadvantaged. The issue is that Google forces 2FA on them, even if they otherwise don’t have a phone.
>Google search (as we now know it) will be retired.

I think so too, but I think it's still pretty far out.

In order to do this, Google's AI-generated text needs to be better than the web results they return today, 100% of the time. It's the same reason why Google has never made 100% of the first 10 results ads. If users make a search and advertisers aren't bidding on the keyword, Google will return 0 results, and the user is less likely to come back and make a new search.

Google's AI needs to consistently be better than the content created by webmasters. Across billions (trillions?) of different search phrases.

Maybe there is an intermediary step where Google uses AI-generated text in a small subset of searches, and then expands out gradually. But there is so many unique searches it seems like a tall task.

Also, if Google displaces webmasters with AI-generated content, what incentives do websites have to create the new content Google will need to train their AI on to answer whatever humans want to know over the next 50 years?
