I would say yes and no. Yes, obviously the renderer is there but at the same time it's only doing what it was told to do. Taking Unity and Unreal as examples, you can make something look plastic, cartoony, realistic, a mixture, or really anything you want. Usually there will be art director(s) (or a someone with a similar title) that make sure the art/graphics stick with a certain look and feel so I would put the blame more on them than the engine.

It's fine if they branch out, but they abuse their users with popups, and by not being able to hide these extra features. I just want to listen to music without having to repeatedly tell them that's all I want to do.

Fantastic! Thanks for this. Do you plan to open the raw data you collected for others to tinker with it?
All of this has happened already, see this:

"Cryptographer Bruce Schneier says the attack may have been "either the work of the NSA, or exploited by the NSA."[6] However, this has been disputed, with others saying the NSA had only detected a foreign intelligence service using the fake certificates.[7]"
Many HNers use Fastmail. I'm one of them.

I think Fastmail is 100% great, but there are always some mailing lists and other recipients who might treat you as a third or fourth class citizen for sending mail from your own domain, even if you do all the deliverability stuff right.

Some people think Fastmail is a little pricey, particularly for a large inbox, but you get what you pay for.
Great to hear thanks! Let me know if you want more info about it!

Like the antivaxxers protesting at and trying to block vaccination sites? Like the antivaxxers screaming obscenities at people wearing masks? Like the antivaxxers hunting down nurses and doctors who work in vaccination centres, in an attempt to intimidate them? Like those antivaxxers telling others to “shoot to kill” doctors and nurses?

Yeah, just like those antivaxxers.

Fire – Make Web3 Simple
I’m Jeff, co-founder of Fire and we believe everyone should know what they’re agreeing to when they sign a smart contract - yet very few actually do.

Not too long ago a friend of mine was telling me how he lost his Ape. One day he woke up and poof, it was just gone due to an approval he gave while signing a smart contract.

It got me thinking, I’d never sign a contract in real life without reading it first. Yet, so many people are transferring hundreds of thousands of $$ without any idea what they’re actually agreeing to.

So… we built Fire (https://www.joinfire.xyz/).

Fire is a Chrome extension that sits in your browser and simulates a transaction before you sign with your wallet, giving you visibility into exactly what you’re signing. We work with any wallet and don’t have access to your private key and will never access it.

With Fire, you can preview what will enter and exit your wallet BEFORE you sign a transaction.

How it Works: After downloading the Fire extension, it will catch signature requests from your browser, run a simulation, and show you the results. If everything looks good, you sign the transaction using your wallet.

The Fire extension can’t control any of your funds since we do not have access to your seed phrase (and we will never ask for it).

Be sure to check our minting game for everybody to see the power of Fire. We wanted to incorporate NFTs and community into the onboarding and core of our product.

If you’re interested in trying the product, we recently launched our Chrome Extension Here’s a link to our chrome-extension store page:
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/fire/kglcipoddmbni...

We’d love to hear from the HN community about your experiences using and building in Web3.
You made an incorrect assumption! I wash them after about 2 weeks of wear, or when they get pretty visibly dirty. (The drool from my mastiff doesn't count, or they'd be washed every 15 minutes.)

I will say, "a year or two" is an exaggeration for some of my jeans. But I usually only have 2-4 pair with no holes that I rotate between, and most develop wear in the knees if not outright holes by the end of 2 years.

> Fossil fuel is going to end human civilization as we know it within the lifetime of people born in this century

And New Yorkers in the 1900s thought that the existential crisis facing their city was too much horseshit in the streets, and scientists in the 1960s thought an ice age was imminent. But sure! Civilization will collapse because of fossil fuels.

Mark my words: more people will suffer and die in the coming decades from the fallout of so-called "green" policies and the increasingly authoritarian approach to achieve those objectives, than ever will from climate-related disasters. Just look at Sri Lanka for a sneak peek.
I think your assumptions are incorrect, but it would be really fun/interesting to test our thoughts out with a user survey.

You're skipping how Apple made Lightning a closed standard and charged big royalties for it. I can reasonably point to that licensing as the reason a legitimate Lightning to USB cable costs at least $15 instead of $1.50, cause the latter is how much a good knockoff costs.
> The semicolon turns an expression into an expression statement.[1]

And more relevant, this has the effect of suppressing the expression's value when used in tail position of a block, by moving from the second to the first branch of the block expression grammar: https://doc.rust-lang.org/reference/expressions/block-expr.h...

Which also explains why it sometimes doesn't work e.g. in non-block match arms, because they're not blocks, and thus don't accept statements.

Yes he had some loyal people who worked for him but even they tended to say they were loyal to him because he made them successful, not because they loved him as a person.

> Speculation is that people were buying cars they couldn't afford using the stimulus checks as the downpayment and then immediately asking for a halt on payments due to COVID.

I wouldn't be surprised if that happened a few times, but I find it hard to believe that it was widespread enough to significantly impact car prices. I certainly haven't heard of anyone doing this.

That said, I'd welcome a reduction in used car prices. Someone ran into our car and totaled it earlier this year. We replaced it with the exact same make model and year, and it cost us several thousand dollars more than buying it the first time, despite it now being several years older.
I'm not arguing about English vs non-English programming languages, I'm talking about symbols available on the keyboard. When you start out programming, you're being met with symbol you probably haven't extensively used before, such as the pipe ("|") or even curly braces, as you usually don't come across those in prose. But you can look down on a keyboard and see how you can enter those symbols.

Contrast that to APL which has you enter symbols that are nowhere to be found on a keyboard. You need to manually look up how to enter the symbols, or run specific software to have it on-screen, and if you forget, you can't just look at the keyboard, you need to look it up again.

I'm sure it becomes second-nature after a while, just like entering pipe characters or curly braces. But it's definitely harder to get started if there is more to remember than just concepts.

I have not forgotten how long I had to learn English, as it's not my mother language and I had to learn it in school at a certain age. I'm also currently learning a fourth (speaking/writing/"human") language currently, so I'm well aware about that there are other languages out there.

I'm also not arguing against APL as a language as a whole, I'm personally curious about it as well and will probably give it a go as it's currently missing from my repertoire of languages, which is wide already but still missing things. I'm simply arguing against it as a first programming language for people to learn, compared to languages that don't contain symbols you cannot "normally" enter on a traditional keyboard.
Off-the-books immigration is by definition tough to quantify. But it doesn't seem likely that illegal immigrants are either renting or buying houses in large numbers since they don't tend to have a lot of money. More likely they're doubling up with family that's already here and as such not causing a significant amount of housing demand.

Yeah, I get it, even my bishops have said that vaccination is an act of mercy.

But how many acts of mercy do we owe our brothers and sisters?

Five? A dozen? Per year? Per month?

It was inevitable that the COVID-19 vaccines should require a followup and a booster and there were variants that mutated and then we just had a neverending cycle of vaccine opportunities.

In the '60s when polio was a spectre, it just began to be civic duty to get your round of shots. You got the polio and you got the pertussis and you got x y and z. Then people were taking in their babies so they could load up on vaccines before they were even threatened and then stuff was eradicated.

But what's the endgame for that? How many is enough? Who's gonna recommend fewer vaccines? Not the manufacturers. Not the pharmacies or physicians. Are insurance companies gonna put a rate limiter on vaccines? I don't know. It's hard to tell what is truly Medically Necessary and what is just putting on a show.

Another possible issue: arcing/stuff burning on to one of the lightning pins. IDK why it happens, it’s probably lint or something, but it’s easy enough to mitigate: If a cable stops working all the sudden, the first thing I do is wet my fingers and rub both sides of the lightning cable’s connector. Most of the time that does the trick, no new cable or tools needed!

An example of the issue I found searching the issue real quick: https://www.thetechmentor.com/posts/fix-lightning-cable-burn...

The point of this essay is that buildings do change, but different parts change at different rates - and the same with software.

You don't change the language your application is written in every day, and likewise the structure of a building isn't changed every day. But the stuff inside a building does change frequently.
You might think it's impossible to beat a modern 98% efficient gas furnace, but electric heat pumps can have effective efficiencies greater than 100%. (sometimes 200% or 300%!) They can do this because they "steal" heat energy from outside (yes, even in the cold winter air)

Ask HN: How do you set up a system to track customer's usage in AWS?
Hello,

I have created a tool on top of AWS Textract(a OCR tool). I am trying to add a paid tier account but I am not sure how to set up tracking of usage or what the term for this is called to begin to google resources for it.
Googling tracking usage in aws only brings up personal tracking of cloud costs.

Better IDE support is huge. I know a lot of devs who liked the idea of Deno but weren't in a position to dump a lot of their development tooling to pick it up, so this effectively removes a big barrier to adoption for a lot of folks.

I worked with the extension Webstore and the Android Play Store. The Webstore is absolutely way worse.

We took the resolution really seriously at first, and we tried our best to find the issue and fix it, but then we realized we had about the same resolution rate if we just changed a random character in the codebase and resubmitted. We had contacts at Google, but even they couldn't tell us what was wrong.

Play Store was/is much better, but we aren't dealing with complicated phone APIs, just basically a React Native app with REST calls. We rarely have any issues getting rejected, and when it is, we get very fast turnarounds on emails.

Play store had a much lower

I'm not sure what part of your project is web-based and what you mean by "web-based". Do you mean executing Lisp/Scheme code on the browser side or the server side? In any case you should consider Gambit Scheme that has a complete JavaScript backend. For example check out the https://try.gambitscheme.org site to see the online REPL in action.
Why is this even an argument? Lightning is not something obscure. You can go on Amazon now and find hundreds of cables that are not “MFI certified”. You can’t believe all of these Chinese cables are bothering with certification.

But the only reason we care about carbon-free energy is because of the pesky people. If displacing people isn't a big deal, then climate change isn't a problem and we don't need to care about carbon-free energy at all. We'd just move populations as the climate changes.
