Hey, please leave money out of climbing (joking, there ain't any worth talking about yet, unless you do Honnold stuff and that's mostly due to NatGeo and North Face's money and Jimmy Chin's propagation of him and himself).

But seriously, I truly wish serious money would be left out of sports. Yes I know pros need that to train (and buy their yachts/ferraris in certain fields), but I would be extremely happy to see sports being performed on lower level just like first olympics were, but done by people out of pure passion for it, not chasing sponsors / desperately trying to get views. It just degrades whole idea.

Thus I completely ignore all major sports since once you look at it via that sort of lens, you can't go back and its a sad sight anytime. I know I am a minority with this, but hey its way more interesting to stay out of sheepish crowds anyway.
There are gas turbine engines for terrestrial vehicles, there is one in the M-1A1 tank.

I can picture the chemistry working out for a diesel engine, which burn a fuel which isn't too different from jet fuel.
Sounds awesome. I've only ever used 8" jointers. Does it take a long time to spin up? Bet that needs a lot of dust collection power, too. By sheer coincidence, in the editor's note of the current issue of Popular Woodworking, the editor is talking about his work restoring a Towsley 24" jointer, and will be publishing articles about the restoration process over the next year.
The price would have to drop dramatically (30%, the amount the last bubble dropped, would not be enough) to get a lower monthly mortgage payment.

What have OpenBSD developers done to you? :-P
> they also agreed to support other inits in the distribution.

That's true, but with systemd being the only init that packages had to support. Accordingly many package maintainers choose to only support systemd.

So if you want to run Debian without systemd, you have to be prepared for your fave packages to drop support for the other inits. It follows that you can't rely on the Debian package repository. So to support a Debian-like system without systemd, you have to fork the whole repository.
That would be the case if there were fungible inputs, some of which were decarbonized and some of which were not.

But that's not the case, as far as I understand any Apple's inputs. New supply chains and new accounting for all the supply chains will need to be created.
Great news - affordable housing is around the corner! This will also deep-six people speculating on real estate or buying homes to AirBnB them (won't be profitable). All good news.
Even though majority of HN'ers write Java code (judging by the numerous developer surveys from various companies).

It may not be hot and cool like some hip new language, but Java work is very important and quite literally makes the world work.

The blog post says maintainers have been hired, as well as the Blender blog post is months old, seems like this has been public knowledge for a while, but that it is just formally being announced now.

Edit: seems I am getting downvoted, but I searched
dachary who has a financial interest in Gitea, and has posted about the company in the past, so he clearly has known about this for a while.

I wonder why he happens to not mention a conflict.
I do see evidence of people renting, because they intend to buy next year when the prices are lower. So I do think rent will be a lagging indicator, and will keep going up for a while. That will keep the inflationary pressure on the Fed to raise rates higher and for longer.

The oils of safflower, rapeseed ("Canola"), safflower, corn, cottonseed, etc go rancid during the production process. They are usually 'refined' with steam to remove the distinct odor of rancid oil. All the 'vegetable' oils at a modern grocery store are refined.

After pressing, the remaining oil is removed from the little seeds with the petroleum distillate hexane. The hexane is mostly boiled off and captured for reuse.

Olive oil can be produced without much in the way of modern technology. It's got a little more Omega-6 than ideal. Sometimes I pick up a bottle of unfiltered olive oil at Trader Joe's.

Coconut oil is stable at tropical temperatures, but doesn't have any vitamin A.

I think it's important to avoiding Omega-6 oils. Pig/chicken fat mostly reflects what the pig/chicken was fed. Ruminants can bio-hydrogenate PUFA's, but this system gets overwhelemed when they're finished on grain...

The whole description is wordy but astonishing.

It is strange that the part that strikes me the most though is this one:

"The Coast Guard amphibian gained altitude and flew off. (I learned later that he headed for a squadron of minesweepers that was returning to the United States from a tour of the Western Pacific. He was unable to tune to their radio frequency for communications. But this ingenious pilot lowered a wire from his aircraft and dragged it across the bow of the minesweeper, the USS Embattle. The minesweeper captain understood the plea, and veered off at top speed in my direction.)"

That is such a fascinating operational ingenuity by the pilot and the captain, I am thoroughly impressed!
Because Dyalog have failed to implement a HTTP->HTTPS redirect. Without this you rely on all your users understanding the difference between HTTP and HTTPS. Most don't and links to the HTTP version of your site will proliferate.
You're not wrong, but it's dramatically worse than it was even 6 years ago.
Feature not a bug. Recruiters want qualified applicants, not applicants. The easier the application the more absolutely stupid applications you get. If you've ever handled incoming resumes you know what I mean. I'm not saying the line cook couldnt learn how to become a lead software engineer but they probably should at least have some experience as a developer first.

HR/recruiting and the managers actually with open roles dont always have the same goals.
Except, you don't sue the individual. You sue the company since the individual was acting as a representative of the company. The company has much deeper pockets than the individual.

On "slam dunk" cases, some lawyers will work for small retainer and large cut of settlement. You no longer have to spend time chasing. You just supply lawyer with info when requested.
I don't think you have less dep when building other c++ projects. People also use automake, autoconf or whatever to generate makefiles. It is just that the author choose python here. I never see anybody writes makefile manually and build moderate or big size project. There are always tons of tools used.
How would you know? Companies aren't going to tell you they rejected you because you failed to fill out an informally required field that was marked optional.
> I can see a lot of good coming from this...

Yet you don't name one single thing except that "bad things are possible" without it. I'm quite sure bad things are possible with or without everyone's personal data in a public lookup service.
Thanks, I did some stress-testing and infra is scalable enough but I forgot about the AWS quotas, my bad. Quota increase requested and servers are killed off so hopefully "soon" the issue will go away.
I think the cost savings is more than just the cves. You also get faster features and have to write fewer tests. You can use higher level abstractions with fewer rough edges. You may even be able to take advantage of the ecosystem more.

And you don't have to rewrite everything at once, you can do it at the function or file level bit by bit. Perhaps the parts that are changing the most are done first, or perhaps the parts with the most bugs.

I'm still not saying rewriting is always right or wrong, but I think it isn't as cut and dry as some make it sound.

Well great. If you didn't buy a house last year, you won't get another chance for 10-15 years.
These are people who know that anything written down will eventually be used in a lawsuit. They’re not going to use slurs. I bet they wouldn’t even have any problem with their children marrying an Asian. But it’s their job to keep the Asian percentage down below what it would be if the student was White, and very far below what it would be if they were Black, among students with otherwise similar credentials. If that doesn’t qualify as anti-Asian racism what is it?

The reason the holistic admissions system was made up was to avoid having too many Jews. Now it’s used to prevent too many Asians.

Plus ça change, plus c’est la même chose
Thanks for the correction, this is quite important. I had taken statements that Unix and Posix time excludes or ignores leap seconds to mean that it increases monotonically in a continuous manner in sync with whatever atomic clock is the standard; on the contrary, it recognizes and implements leap-seconds with a discontinuity deviating from the steady tick of that standard.

Examples: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time#Leap_seconds

I also learned that 00:00:00 UTC on 1 January 1970 is a proleptic time, as UTC was not in effect then, though I am not sure that makes it subject to subsequent planetary motions.

I have been wondering about this for years.
What does "Kayak on the internet" mean in this context (with the capital 'K')? Do you mean the canoe-like boat? Why does kayaking require a camera? Or do you mean the online travel site kayak.com, which doesn't make sense.
And he is wrong. GDPR is Swedish law, and governments take GDPR issues very seriously. Every community must by law have a GDPR compliance officer responsible for handling issues and reporting them to the government.

There has been some quite public cases where government orgs, communities have been fined for GDPR violations. And these cases are of course also public so that can't be hidden.
Windows does hardware support primarily though proprietary drivers specific to that hardware. Outside of that, its own innate hardware support is quite lackluster compared to other OSes (especially Linux, due to the pressure to put drivers in the kernel, where they're open and maintained.)

Sure, they can unilaterally kill any software on their platform, it's perhaps an important thing to note about it and other platforms where this is true. (Answering questions of ownership and user rights that inherently arise from this and other similar facts are left as an exercise to the reader). However, that also comes at the cost of disabling the hardware that the driver serves, at least until it's fixed.
No OP but I have a personal fascination with this tech as well.

It was one of those technologies that was way ahead of its time. They just could not get the density on the disk such that it would make sense longer term but given people still had records, they fit into these collections as-in given their similar form factor. They sported better picture quality and (debatably) better audio.

They also were natively able to produce an analog signal (RCA video and component out) as format is not actually totally digital.

They are just super cool piece of tech from a blip in history but they did set the stage for all our compact disk formats we use today.

>Current renters will have lower potential to save on a monthly basis

It's cheaper to rent than to buy in many markets and if you own you have to factor in maintenance, property taxes, and insurance. It's definitely not as black and white as you're making it out to be.
That's the trick you failed the first challenge : "Did you try to turn it off and on again?"
Financial Ignoramus here - looking back - were ultra low rates a mistake? It seems insane that this number has grown so much since even last year. Would slowly growing them over a longer period have been better than these huge jumps? It seems wrong that I refinanced a 500k mortgage last year and I would be paying ~35% less per month than someone who did the same thing today.
Open Source Metering and Usage-Based Billing API
I don't say nice things about Oracle very often, but they deserve some praise here. Graal is a very, very ambitious project, and Oracle has been funding it for years. It's still rough around the edges, but it promises to enable new programming languages to run on a high-performance JVM, compiled to native code. Write-once, run anywhere, at native speed. And now they're donating it. It's very decent of them.

Exactly, prices don't fall in symmetrical ways as they rise in happy times due to people's greed (or patience to wait). Seen it in 2008 and even before.

Now it we are facing truly cataclysmic long term situation down the road never ever seen before (or at least comparable to 1929) that's a different story, but few insiders believe that now.
I don't have one directly; my wife has been following this case (as she has a background in art and is getting a Museum Studies degree), and she reported this from some of the articles she read about it.

No, it's completely against my philosophy to memorize things just to remember; and things like Laplace transforms you look up in 'Beta: mathematics handbook' which you're typically allowed to bring to tests in engineering and in applied physics, at least here in Sweden.

What I mean is that if you know calculus you can do it fluently, like a language. You don't remember the solution, you calculate it, preferably in your head.

Edit: Though, back at my university tests took five hours, and I understand one or two hours is normal in America, and I could imagine that those shorter tests mean that there's more memorization and less sensible study.

And those power lines can have very real effects.

When I had a computer network/support business, a somewhat competing business (they were mostly Mac, we were mostly Windows) with strong marketing and weak tech decided to move to a new location. The new location was on an upper floor of a converted old mill building near the river, railroad tracks, and high-voltage power transmission lines, which were just outside the windows on that floor (like only a few meters away).

Several months later, they were out of business. The rumor around town was that they'd frequently lost large amounts of data and/or customer's entire drives (floppy and hard).

I'm not sure if this was because they were all marketing and weak technologists and it just caught up with them in higher error rates with more biz, or if it was just one big error of being ignorant of the EM fields from the power lines outside windows (which I did hear second-hand that they'd started having random data loss in the new location, took too long to understand it, and were doomed by the time they figured it out).

I'd also read about when the Tennessee Valley Authority started installing some of the first high-voltage transmission lines in the US, a clever adjacent homeowner buried a long wire in a set of coils under the lines and ran it to his house to supply power. He was eventually caught and argued that he wasn't stealing electricity because he was only collecting ambient power. He lost, as although the device was not mechanically contacting the lines, it was still of course electromagnetically coupled — the phenomena of which he was taking advantage.

As a long-time reader and fan I broadly agree with the highlighting choices. My only further suggestion would be, maybe for the final "body and soul" category or maybe for those who already have some familiarity with the author, Radio Free Albemuth.

This has an interesting history: PKD declined to make changes requested by the publishers who appeared unhappy with the novel's political content - it is in part a biting satire on Nixon era politics - and it languished until Dick's friend Tim Powers made a MS available which was published posthumously in 1985.

The novel itself was written in 1976 and was PKD's first attempt to process the unusual experiences which inspired his later "VALIS" fiction. As such it contains autobiographical elements: some of Dick's real-life experiences happen to protagonist Nick Brady, who swaps theories about them with his scifi author friend "Phil".

Because of this, apart from its value as a novel, there's lots to interest those curious about the author himself. For example, one episode in particular puts the existence of PKD's letters to the FBI condemning Stanislav Lem as a commie agent of some kind, which I read somewhere were retrieved by the FBI from his garbage, in an entirely new light!
Yes, I still have hobbies. I sometimes write about them on my personal site, but not all that often. I don't really post anything about it to social media regularly. If you looked me up online you'd be hard pressed to know what I do with my free time these days, because I'm spending that time doing things I enjoy not talking about it to strangers. All of my hobbies actively cost money and are not really monetizable in any meaningful way, and I wouldn't have it any other way.

There are thousands of people doing what I do (not necessarily my specific hobby, just doing their thing without posting about it), you are just unaware of it because we don't post about it. I would recommend you get off the Internet, go do something that sparks curiosity or interest in you, and stop worrying about other people, what they're doing or what they think of you.

There's likely a generational element here, younger people are more consistently "always online", but I think this eventually gives as they grow up and they too realize the value of disconnecting.

This is kinda diving into the deep end, but this is a great overview - https://mitp-content-server.mit.edu/books/content/sectbyfn/b...

the gist is you treat memory as a big array, then write a program to manipulate that array. it's really just a decision about what you want to "take as primitive" in your implementation. could be brk, could be malloc and free, or something higher level.
Nix Flakes: First Steps
My father, in the 1970's, took an adjustable rate mortgage because he thought there was no way they would keep hiking rates with a presidential election coming. However, Volcker and company hiked the rates anyway (to levels far higher than today's), and he took a financial beating on his house payment.

I'm sure the Democrats are not crazy about higher interest rates (although inflation is also bad politically), but they don't have control of the Fed, at least not in the short term.
Based on your architecture diagram it looks like you're spinning up an instance per-user? As you're probably finding now, you will hit AWS limits quickly.

You might instead want to have a smaller pool of (larger) servers that you run co-resident VMs on with https://firecracker-microvm.github.io/. That will avoid account limits and also keep your AWS costs more predictable.
It's also a generic compliment, a way of saying that whatever you've created is nice enough that a stranger would pay for it.
I think there may be some bias to your information sources. For example, I have a friend who was long time single and one day he told me that marriage is awful, nobody likes it. Well, turns out that none of his friends were married so all his information was discussion in the break room at work, of course people are much more likely to complain about their spouse then suddenly profess their continued domestic harmony. When was the last time someone shared over r lunch how they didn't argue about something? In this case people are more likely to talk about an activity if they are interested in the money angle.

I have hobbies with and without money. I never talk about the ones with no profit aspect. I just spend time enjoying them. I like woodworking, cycling, and making things around the house.

I do talk about my tea shop. It is a hobby business and I love it. I run it as a fairly serious business, and it makes a decent amount of money, but I don't optimize for profit. Eg, if someone is unhappy they get their money back regardless. I optimize for fun and happiness.
I feel this weirdly common in Scandinavian countries for some reason.

Maybe their society lived in this "everything is peaceful and we have no corruption so nothing bad happens" long enough to have such an absurd level of trust in the government?
How will this be financed?

In residential solar, panels are largely subsidized by federal ITC or financed by banks claiming the tax equity which covers the maintenance, upfront costs, etc; hence the zero upfront residential solar model. Will this be similar?
You can write a C compiler in Java. The output of the C compiler doesn't depend on the JVM, it would be a regular old program written in C. Writing a Java runtime would be similar, the output would be an executable that doesn't depend on the JVM.

This has been the largest criticism of InfluxDB in the past. Kudos to the team for acknowledging and solving it!

> IOx supports SQL natively and our cloud customers can connect using Postgres-compatible clients like psql, Grafana’s Postgres data source, and BI tools like PowerBI and Tableau.

Initially InfluxDB had InfluxQL, a SQL like language for querying data. Then they transitioned to Flux, indicating it was superior to writing complex SQL queries over time series data. Now they are highlighting native SQL support. Since this was only announced today, hopefully there will be clear messaging on which query languages will be supported going forward.

It’s also worth noting that queries can also be executed over an HTTP API that platforms like PowerBI can consume today.

>First introduced in 2020 as the open source project InfluxDB IOx, the new storage engine is the product of sustained development by InfluxData and considerable contribution from the InfluxDB open source developer community. Today, the new engine based on IOx arrives first in InfluxData’s multi-tenant InfluxDB Cloud service, available to developers worldwide.

Will this later be available in an OSS package for self-hosting?
