Having recently just gone through the acoustic vs digital purchase decision, while you're right that an acoustic breaks down, so too can a digital.

But IMO fixing an action or motherboard on a 10+ year digital is much scarier than fixing a purely mechanical acoustic. A well looked after acoustic has a reasonably forgiving depreciation curve if it's a decent brand too whereas I picked up top-end digital for 45% discount even though it was less than a year old

Ask HN: Thoughts on Windows Explorer?
Windows Explorer and search has a lot of complains of being slow and unconvenient still everyone is using it on a daily basis. I tried third party tools like Everything but those are too complicated for an avarage user.

I was curious what you guys are using or maybe it's just me who hates Windows Explorer so much.

Any comments, good or bad?
Five reasons why you should learn Rust:

- Rust guarantees memory safety without garbage collectors or automatic reference counting.

- Rust is extremely well designed — separation of data (structs) and logic (implementations); generics are done right with the ability to add implementations of functions only for specific generic variants.

- High-level languages often abstract things like “how many bytes is an integer” or “is this going to be allocated on a heap or stack?” Rust puts these decisions in your hand and makes you accountable for every clock tick of the CPU.

- It makes you a better developer

- Even though the language is not easy, the compiler is your best friend, your mentor. Not only will it tell you exactly what the problem is, but in many cases, it will suggest the correct solution. So, in a way, it’s a private teacher for free that helps you understand your code and how to improve it further :-)
Yeah for now the data sources are a bit limited. I combine data from a few place but its mainly wikipedia/data. I am working on a browser extension that will let you save from any page.
The phenomenon isn't all that rare. Both senses of "sanction" derive from its original sense of "decree" - you can decree that something is allowed, or that it's not allowed.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auto-antonym lists several similar pairs, in which two contradictory senses developed from one older sense. (Along with many more pairs that are the results of different patterns.)

It's simply zero covid working better than the best vaccines which will still lead to millions of deaths at PRC scale and with PRC's relatively lower per capita medical infra. Economically it sucks, but despite disruptions PRC exports booming and moving up the value chain until global slowdown due to UKR war, while being huge producer + cheap RU energy + reserves = slower growth + low inflation, and PRC is still doing relatively alright simply because most others are doing so shit. I imagine not even CCP knows how it ends long term except currently the cost benefit of waiting is worth it, especially with unknowns like long covid, or possibly useful excuse for impending global slow down that's going to impact PRC economy anyway. Might as well as weather it under guise of saving lives. TLDR is it's still sustainable status quo.

Seattle and WA, where Dicks is, has not had a tipped minimum wage exception for many, many years. And also, Dicks is not a restaurant with wait service, so I have no idea why a tip would be expected.

Even without the tipped minimum wage exception in WA/OR/CA, tips are still socially expected for wait service in the West coast, so waiters would probably continue to earn more in Minneapolis.
Thanks for the tips !
Just because "brakes slow a car down" is a prediction of a simple theory of an idealized car, doesn't mean that a more complete and nuanced theory will give a different prediction.

Furthermore, interest rate policy is basically a single lever with "up" or "down" positions. There's not a lot of room for nuance in the policy, regardless of whether the theory that recommends that policy is simple or nuanced.

I've spent the majority of my working life so far on the minimum wage and I only relatively recently escaped. I would have been open to paying for a service back then if it was only one hour's wage a year. If it's one hour's wage every month like Musk is proposing then no: I wouldn't have been.

In my experience, poor people are not adverse to paying things, they are just being priced out by poor salaries and greedy shareholders. These services don't need to grow and change. Every company does not have to be a trillion dollar rocket ship of growth. Hacker News has been the same for years. Just offer me a basic, functioning service and a small fee for the upkeep. Anything else only serves shareholders rather than actual users.

HN does not itself have one, that's the point of the Minimalist mention. It's an extension that lets you override parts of any website. On looking at what is actually active for me on HN, it's actually another extension I use, named Stylus, (which does much of the same thing, but Stylus is focused on just the CSS while Minimalist also lets people provide modules which provides a list of options to turn on/off) which provides the Dark HN theme. I've gone back and forth between a couple of different ones over the years, and one of the older ones was Minimalist, but the one I use now is apparently Stylus -- been a few years since I touched the settings.

Stylus is here: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stylus/clngdbkpkpe...

You can find themes to suit you here: https://uso.kkx.one/browse/styles?search=Hackernews (or search for any other site you might want to alter)

> Whenever I saw anyone attempting to have everything dark, half the things looked awful, the dark theme was not even an afterthought...

That's exactly why you pretty much need an extension like Stylus or Minimalist to get proper themes made by people who cares what the sites end up looking like.
10 years is quite a long time for things to change though.
Sure many sources might have existed for a long time, but it sounds like the way the company is going to use them, how quickly it will turn them around will improve. It's not transactional per se any more, more real-time (depending on the specific use or update). As for the same management, depending on your perspective, that might be a sign of stability.

Ask HN: How do you communicate with inexperienced clients?
Sometimes I get clients who don't know how development works and end up getting angry when I charge them more than expected hours.

For example, they ask me to add a feature to their app but then I take 10 hours to install their project on my computer because the previous developer added package-lock.json to .gitignore. Then I take a couple more hours getting through the spaghetti code so that I can actually figure out how to add the feature.

Have you experienced this before? If yes then how can you communicate with the client that you're not trying to scam them?

I’m not sure what I just read, but it felt like it was AI generated.

… full of words,
and absolutely no information.

Even the linked page (https://www.tomtom.com/tomtom-maps-platform/) really doesn’t make it even remotely clear what they’re announcing, or why we should care.

> The world lacks a truly open and collaborative mapping ecosystem, one that doesn’t follow a one-size-fits-all model but is flexible so that businesses can build according to their needs

What does that even mean?

I’ll tell you what it means: no, our API pricing for whatever this service is will not be public, not be self serve and not be for small time developers to play with.

Ah wait, I get it!

> With its new map, TomTom is using AI and machine-learning techniques to speed up the process and make a much greater volume of changes in a much smaller period of time. With the masses of data used, the quality of the new map will be a step above what’s currently available on the market

I see! You’re going to compete with google maps and others but you’re going to pour The AI Machine Learning on your offering to make it better than the others.

…well, I guess we’ll see how it goes.

That approach (same as everyone but we have AI!!!??!?…?) is really a bad business model.

The problem is that everyone is doing it; and only a very small number of people are doing it at a level that makes any meaningful difference, and for those companies it’s a core competency, not a value add.

An exception should be recognized: open models - free of charge, with no strings attached.

I think this is the best approach because:

(1) Models are public, so everyone can benefit from them.

(2) Such models can be trained on public data for improvements.
(No complexity involved over paying for data, no copyright risks regarding data, etc)

(3) Companies can sell services.
(model-as-a-service, customization, apps/tools, education, etc)

(4) Companies may lose competitive edges, but they can enjoy the bigger market.

It looks like Amin is confusing "open source" with "free" (as in free beer).

He seems to be pissed off that Red Hat discontinued the free CentOS distribution. And instead of paying for Red Hat, it goes to Rocky Linux, a free fork of Red Hat, just like CentOS. It is fine (at least legally), but the paid Red Hat distribution is no less open-source than Rocky Linux, in fact, the latter exists because Red Hat is open-source.

That's why I think this article particularly ironic, it says that Red Hat is not "true" open-source and then made a move that is only possible because Red Hat is open-source. It didn't even go to something like Debian, which is the most "free/libre/open-source" of the major distros, it went to the clone of the distro they criticize.
I know! And I use it. But it's not super visible. I'd love to see colour shading on the route lines based on the gradient or something. OSMAnd does know the gradient, it just doesn't show it in the map view.
I remember a time when my family called any GPS head unit a “TomTom” - not sure if it was that way outside of my family though. Almost like they nearly had “Kleenex” levels of brand recognition. Unfortunately for them the iPhone moment happened. iPhone GPS wasn’t nearly as good, and they even had an app on the iPhone (That sold for almost as much as a separate unit, at a time when developers could actually sell paid-up-front apps on the app store…)
Yeah, I have a spaced repetition learning feature on the roadmap.
Just made this decision (as an experienced player).

The other comments are pretty solid, ultimately a DP is great for dipping your toes in and a 1k digital is probably better than a 1k acoustic.

That said as I heard someone say there is something magical about the physical and sonic experience of playing an acoustic and feeling the sound reverberate through you and hear all that resonance.

Until you get to the top end of digital pianos (like your Kawai CA99 / Novus 5S) which have a soundboard or you're a very clued up audiophile, you'll never get close to replicating that physical experience and for some people it's that magic that makes them fall in love with the instrument.

I ended up going digital as I like playing at all hours of the day and can practise in ways that will drive people crazy (I recently spent ~100 minutes working on a single bar of Chopin nonstop without break after having too much guarana in an acai paired with a coffee). My other half also pointed out that given how much I love playing, will practising/playing with a mute pedal on be enjoyable enough if I'm always holding back.

If you have the budget you can also look at silent pianos, I considered one but the one in my local Yamaha showroom was poorly regulated which gave me cold feet but a decent silent should carry you pretty far.
If rates don’t affect spending, what’s the mechanism by which raising them will “unnecessarily [cause] a crash and a big recession”?
It's kinda scary that there are so few mainstream Linux distros that people are willing to trust on their servers. Debian, RHEL, that's about it. And only one of those is commonly supported by major vendors like Dell, HPE and EMC.

I think using it to train an AI model falls into the "analyze it" part.

And bout the mirroring, I'd say what happens is the same as whatever happens if someone sold you something stolen. I don't know exactly but I think the same kind of law applies.
I find your post funny, since I'm regularly using TomTom on my Android phone because it has a better UI and some nicer car navigation features than Google Maps. Based on the number of downloads and TomTom's financials, I'm not even close to being alone.

I've also seen it as a default navigation provider in many car brands so I find your bubble biased post pretty funny - and kinda sad, because we see a lot of those here these days. Is it really so hard to stop for a second and think whether there might be people out there that don't share your preferences?
Guess for most places there is too little data for 3D models and design factors, making the places hard to recognize ...
Wow, this comment has been here for 2 hours and hasn’t been downvoted to oblivion. We are getting there slowly.
Yeah, VAG cars totally support having navigation with no screen! It seems quite funny by today's standards, but I guess the idea is it's like having your passenger navigate and read directions to you.

>It's a _phone_. Phone calls are it's primary function.

No, it's not. You sound like a dinosaur. A phone's primary functions are 1) text-messaging apps, 2) camera, 3) dating apps, 4) banking apps, and various others. Phone calls are somewhere around #20.
