I always thought this is the only future-proof way of dealing with "censorship". Leave it to the different governments to handle.

Social media has been having problems enforcing censorship by different cultural standards for years. In America people are outraged if they see a nipple. In Europe, people are outraged when Facebook takes down a photo of a nursing mom. Let's not get started on political moderation in places like Russia, Iran or Saudi Arabia.

Instead of a bunch of silicon valley liberals pushing their perceived standards and values onto the rest of the world, build tools and delegate the task to the local authorities.

They don't like the content? They can spend the time to moderate and remove it themselves.
Funny you mention that, because hidden check boxes and radio inputs are often used creatively (in a kind of horrifying way) to store app state and avoid using JavaScript entirely, while still having complex animations. For instance, you can make a fully functional image gallery carousel with controls to navigate between each image with zero JavaScript like this, and this is just one of the simplest examples.
We have a Slack bot that sends out this kind of message for us as well. For my team it's 17.00 local time.

I also track everything I'd put into my update in Workflowy (and more, sometimes) throughout the day, so I end up with a bunch of daily logs to look back on if needed. I use it a lot, especially for our longer-form written "end-of-week" updates.
I know, but as some one who was a spectator to the drift, I feel it was an outlier.

There are always people threatening to move, but rarely does it happen (remember Voat?)

Digg is an outlier IMHO.
Scott's concern with encouraging young programmers is, I think, completely genuine, and a huge part of his writing.

But the line between being genuinely humble and humble bragging is sometimes thin, and people have a different tolerance thresholds for the latter.

It's when he phrases this encouragement as "look, I also felt like an idiot at the start of my career, and look at all the awesome things I've done since then", it also comes across as a bit self-serving, even if unintentionally so. I think some people are simply more prone to pick up on that than others.
> A good markup language describes an abstract hierarchical structure of the document, and lets a separate program to adapt that structure to the desired output.

This is why I like FB2 and dislike ePUB.
> Now there’s a goddamn paper trail of who asked for it and then the entity performed it. Get that shit in discovery if there’s actual harm. Odds are it’s mostly pearl clutching about how somebody’s elephant ...

So governments are going to agree to oversight of these requests then? Because that's what a paper trail is, if it's not public then it's not a paper trail. And if it is public that's true, then why do we only hear about it now?
Unlike a lot of the old generation of Star Wars fandom, I actually liked a lot of what the sequels were trying to do, and I wanted to see a fresh, revisionist (even deconstructionist) take on the lore. Instead we got A New Hope for the third time and an incoherent mess of wasted potential and mutual sabotage between directors.

It's actually astounding that they would treat one of the most lucrative properties in history the way they did. Maybe they just assumed Star Wars was so big it couldn't fail.
> Seems like a reasonable and simple idea

It's not that reasonable once you consider who the current verified state is actually assigned to:

- People with huge fanbases like popstars - sure, they'll pay.

- "Normal" people who are verified and known in a community? Unlikely - they're who twitter wants stay and write on the platform to keep others there. People should be paying to read them, not the other way around.

- Journalists / others verified because of their work - depends. But someone did a quick calculation for keeping everyone from a single publication verified (from WaPo I think) and the cost of that was basically unrealistic. (can't find the tweet, I'll link for specific numbers if I find it)

So if they want to destroy the "verified" brand and tax pop stars - that will bring money and alienate users.
Which model exactly do you have?

Specifically which CPU/RAM and display option?

I've just got a new X1 Carbon Gen10 with i7-1260P/32GB/WWAN/OLED screen, and it's one of the quietest laptop I ever used.

I did heard sometimes coil whine on my old Gen4 X1 Carbon, but not that it was super annoying.

I initially was spooked by the reports that 12gen Intel processors are not a good fit for an ultra-portable and may overheat and be too noisy, but that's not the case.

Did you had the same problem under Windows? Maybe it's some Linux-related problem?

In my case the only problems so far that webcam (that comes with OLED screen) and Fibocom modem are not yet supported under Linux ...
All except that phony made-up one...lol
The website being discussed in this thread is about the reproducibility of the crates (or other packages) themselves.
While coal was a major part of the electricity generation in Germany, it has been declining rapidly in recent years and is being phased out completely before 2038 which is roughly in line with the switch to EVs.

In the meantime renewables, especially wind have been growing rapidly and have accounted for more than 50% of all electricity generation in 2020. In 2021 Wind alone was nearly a quarter of the whole electricity production.

Had a Kaypro back in ‘82 that I used to create a neat umpire for a board war game. It had a markup language and could run things that let me get on arpanet and run Kermit. Lots of time has passed and programs used to be way more “efficient”. And the workstations and mini supers that followed shortly had great graphics it just wasn’t a card as much as a system. SGI’s and specialized graphics hardware such as Adsge and the stuff from e&s. Lots happened before pc’s.
I think your definition of "reproducible" is somewhat different from the one usually used. Reproducibility means that by running build process you always get the same binary, nothing more, nothing less. Having a bunch of generated Rust code or blobs in a published crate makes it harder to review (which is why I consider it a bad practice), but such crate is still completely reproducible.
Yes, a better fit. There's probably a delusion for "think they understand how to apply DSM to casual comments"

I recently subscribed to the weekend edition of the SZ. Print news still seems to have some sort of quality filters applied to it, and the choice of what is covered (or not covered) leaves me informed without becoming enraged.
Or just accept that drinking is overall harmful to your health, and quitting entirely, rather than keeping it in check, is the solution. It's the solution I came across after nearly a decade of on/off relationship with alcohol.

Not really. It's actually more difficult than disassembling a C codebase. Chris used a macro assembler and wrote _a lot_ of macros. You'd only see what the assembler expanded, but you'd have no idea how the code _actually_ looked like.
Thanks, merek. Happy it was helpful to you :D
By tailoring your messages and content to fit your target accounts' specific needs and interests, you can significantly increase the likelihood of conversion.
Well there is an IRCv3, so it is evolving. And honestly Slack/Discord don't bring that much IMO, at least for the cost of running on a damn ElectronJS app in a proprietary system. All that for what? Reactions to messages?

The fact is that average users don't make any considerations about privacy/freedom/technical merit: they just jump on whatever is used by their own contacts. Nobody is using Mastodon because nobody is using Mastodon. It feels like one solution to that would be marketing. And given who is behind ATProto, they may have a shot at convincing many people to use their new shiny app.
I don't like having to choose between commenting on the blog itself or on the social share of the blog post; those two should be integrated.

Wouldn’t that be something of quality between usual youtube and facebook comments? If all comments here on HN were from all over the internet, would you even sign up? (If you perceive HN as “social shares” of course).
Genuine question: I don’t understand who the typical customer is for having the blue check. How does it make one’s experience better?

> I somehow feel sick and constantly tired.

Because you have been drinking so long, your brain's neurochemical levels (specifically dopamine) have adjusted around the alcohol's effects, and now that you've removed it, these chemicals are out of balance (this is called downregulation/upregulation).

This is a very common effect of long-term drug/alcohol use (really any medication too), all you can do is stop the alcohol use and wait for it to improve - it 100% will, but it will take time. A supplement called N-Acetyl-Cystene (NAC) can help, though of course it is not a magic bullet
> I think the "blue check" verification on Twitter is its most powerful asset.

That seems like a business idea. A mastodon instance without public registration, requiring manual verification, making crossposts to other platforms built-in and trivial. Once established, charging the rich for verification/access, while inviting the known and worthy for free to keep the standards up.
Unfortunately, almost all of them are terrible for accessibility. Most of them cannot be focussed by keyboard. And even more do not have a focus styling. I did not check their code, but that alone does not make a good impression.

Please consider accessibility when you have the urge to build custom (form) components. For checkboxes, have a look at https://www.w3.org/WAI/ARIA/apg/patterns/checkbox/ for some guidelines.
What are you describing here, compile time for a local verification?

If so, how would you imagine that could be sped up?

- If the distro is working on reproducibility, they should have a dashboard somewhere with reproducibility status.

For arch that would be https://reproducible.archlinux.org/

It would be done in their CI and there should be no reason for you do also manually verify this, unless you are a very targeted individual and you think its reasonable that arch linux infrastructure is hacked to target you.

Basically, either you trust your distro or you don't. If you are running local verifications of reproducibility, I am guessing you are not.

So consider switching to a distro that you do trust.
Because customer said so.
Btrfs has snapshots too. That doesn't rule out bugs in it.

Making something someone else's problem doesn't magically make the problem go away.
This is why things like reddit / hn exist; a raw list of links gives you no idea what’s interesting and what’s just irrelevant.

I think the tldr is, in the last month:

- 1.5 model came out; its ok. Incremental improvement, not really significant.

- new VAE came out; this actually tangibly improves fine details, like feet and hands.

The rest is random crap around supporting tooling or vague hand wavy research stuff.

Don’t get me wrong, lots of stuff happening, that’s great, but a lot of it is basically nothing really worth paying attention to unless you’re specifically invested in the topic.
Sure, but the whole point of the article is about progress that is being made. You can't point at Deep Blue and ignore all the things that have happened in AI chess since then.

Cool, but is there a way to store electricity generated by renewables? I have no interest in candle light dinner on dark winter day without much wind.
Obvious Troll post, but your massively misinformed.

CPU performance per watt, has massively increased.
(https://www.cpubenchmark.net/power_performance.html)

GPU is not stuck, it has also massively improved.

The solution is to write better software, there's an awful lot of low hanging fruit in all most every program. (Things like the GTA V loading bug)

Langages do matter here, but only marginally for most projects.

*Actually kind of correct on the memory, but that ignores much higher throughput.
What window manager are you using? And how many windows can you comfortably manage with it? On my current machine (KDE on 1366x768 screen), after 10 open windows their titles disappear, leaving only window icons. And "comfortable" number for me is even lower - no more than 5 windows on a single virtual desktop.

But I'm a tab user, and would like to hear about other approaches.
No it's not all form. Ventilation, climate control and light have changed a lot in recent years. At least from my amateur point of view.

Thanks! No, I use banana.dev because I currently have too little traffic to run the GPUs 24/7. That's why the initial generation is currently a little slow, but hopefully that will be improved with some new changes they're implementing soon.
Good point. Indeed looks like only a few have. I'll try to add focus styles to all of them in the future. Thanks!
Mine is Gen9. I could go for Gen10, but that would be a good bit more expensive, and I don't need the additional performance. I think I'd rather go for a Dell XPS then, which would be like one third of the price.

It is not Linux related, the sound is the same before I even booted Linux and go into the Bios settings for example. If you check the Google link in my post, you can see that it is a common problem with Lenovo.

Gnome as DE is extremely poor in a "non-windows management" software. Native file manager has no two panels mode, no tabs, thumbnails are too small to be useful. Pdf reader is nothing in comparison with Okular. Terminal... terminal is outdated in comparison with Konsole (no ligatures, for example).
The all good points about Gnome are in windows management. KDE's WM is very flexible, of course, you can tune it as you want, or not tune it at all, but Gnome has some hard explained _cuteness_ of windows management. But no more. Because we need more applications than a cute windows management :(
Well at least you have still chance to fight them on Windows and Android.
No, it's not about the reproducibility of crates or language-package-manager-packages, it's only about the reproducibility of packages in specific linux distributions.

Those linux distributions often include their own custom build scripts and patches to make things reproducible. Debian isn't just execing "npm install" or "cargo install" when you "apt install <package>", so "reproducibility" in the context of this webpage doesn't necessarily mean anything at all about specific crates/packages, other than that the debian/arch/opensuse maintainers were able to make their build process for that package, possibly with patches, reproducible.
Hash tables are something I learned in college and was just mind-blown, so simple and so useful
And also that they must offer users the possibility of disabling SMS-based authentication if another scheme is enabled.

On Microsoft 365, if you setup "forced MFA" on your organisation, then they additionally force users to add a phone number which can be used for account recovery.

I get why Microsoft wants to keep account recovery possible in this manner, but I am not someone who needs it, and there needs to be a way for me to make my account more secure where my phone company can't take over my account...
And it is possible to reuse old cells for grid storage etc. If only they were standardized...
Mastodon/Friendica/Diaspora look way too weird to normal people. Their branding doesn't have mass appeal (it's like they coordinated to deliberately pick bad names) and most people don't care about decentralisation at all. People want a cool app that has other people on it (their friends, other people they know about and celebrities).
QR codes are a liability for the restaurant.

Restaurants are places where the regulars gather at predictable hours, and predictable days, and predictable tables, and don't see suspicious to give personal dietary info linked with credit cards.

Is really surprising that nobody has tried still to swap a chunk of paper or put a stick over the QR code at the table to substitute it with a different QR code hacked, so when you order, they redirect you to the official web and at the same time silently copy your personal info in a different web.

Or replaces he lamb dish of a notorius iman with a dish containing pork.

Or allows a paparazzi to change the impossible meat hamburguer of a famous vegan actress by something made of real meat. The paparazzi takes photos and sell some profitable outrage disguised as restaurant error.

Or change the dish of a CEO allergic to peanuts by one that contains a sauce made with spinach and peanut butter

Or spice the dish of a major league baseball or tennis player with a drug, so it fails the next anti doping test. It does not matter that he wear dark glasses, has grown a beard and is unrecognizable. Will be instantly caught by the personal data linked to him.

Or orders somebody in a kitchen to put a pinch of polony in that dish in the table 5. Don't need the complicity of the waiter anymore, and the dish will be served with a smile and no sweating by a waiter that will end in jail without even suspecting it.

The possibilities to abuse the system are endless. They are like the .exe dancing banana attachment of our time, except that you eat the banana now, so this time the target is your body instead your computer.

Most restaurants would not notice the replacement until later (or would never notice it if the next client in that table restores the original QR code). Specially in a world where people don't talk with the waiters anymore, or were replaced by robots.
Well, Group B was peak rally popularity, but as drivers (and public) started dying, it had to be regulated to oblivion.

Totally agree with the first.

The last one - isn't that already the case? The browser treats the server as hostile and often overrides what it wants to do with extensions.

The issue with additional modularity would seem to be that things would become less hackable in general, because you'd have less insight into the internals of modules as there would be more variety and they might not be open source. How does ad blocking work if the core infrastructure doesn't know much about what's being rendered?
Saving your team from alert fatigue
The only clear and no margin for confusion is the one with "X" vs "check" inside the circle. If that "X" would be red and the check green that would add even more clarification. I hate UI's where I have to click everything first in order to understand what's what, I prefer intuitive design instead.
Over here there's a ranking system (Crit'Air) for vehicles on the road, largely based off of the EURO-{x} norm. For cars:

- 0: EV or hydrogen (a.k.a Zero Emission Vehicle)

- 1: plug-in hybrid, LP gaz, EURO-5 or EURO-6 petrol (2011 onwards)

- 2: EURO-4 petrol or hybrid (2006-2010), EURO-5 or EURO-6 diesel (2011 onwards)

- 3: EURO-2 or EURO-3 petrol or hybrid (1997-2005), EURO-4 diesel (2006-2010)

- 4: EURO-3 diesel (2001-2005)

- 5: EURO-2 diesel (1997-2004)

- unranked: anything older

There are two cases where it can apply, on specific geographic Low Emission Zones:

- 24/7/365 rules

- air quality degradation peaks with more stringent rules for the duration of the event (depends on event magnitude, usually it's capoed at 2)

My local LEZ has the following timetable:

- 2020: unranked soft-forbidden (warned, not enforced)

- 2022: unranked forbidden (enforced), 5 soft forbidden

- 2023: 5 forbidden, 4 soft forbidden

- 2024: 4+ forbidden, 3 soft forbidden

- 2025: 3+ forbidden, 2 soft forbidden

- 2028: 2+ forbidden

Which leaves us on the road (not sales!) with a soft ban on diesel in 2024, enforced in 2025, and modern petrol+ZEVs in 2028, with full ZEV looming over for 2030.

This in turn has effects on sales way before each ban because no one in their right mind would buy a car (new or second hand) that can't be used a couple of years down the road (nor resold, because no one would buy it)

I mean, if one buys a diesel today it's going to be soft banned in a little over a year and fined to death (through automated license plate reading) in two years, so essentially some indirect sale ban is already in effect. Apply that reasoning in the 2025-2028 period and it would probably not be a good idea to buy a petrol car either, leaving only ZEVs (i.e EVs since there's no hydrogen powered car on the market yet)

Also note that this is not about residency, merely passing through the LEZ makes one eligible for a fine, so this has rippling effects outside the LEZ.
> In truth, pretty much nobody really knows for sure what policies actually will increase GDP...

Have they tried securing access to large amounts of cheap energy? It is a bit of a win-win because either GDP goes up and case closed or they can sit back and relax in luxury mulling why GDP didn't go up despite massive increases in the general prosperity.

Energy isn't the entire story because there also need to be people around who know how to transform it into whatever you want, but it is a rather important part of the puzzle. After that, freedom and education are probably going to make up the rest. What else is there? I suppose land ownership.

The puzzle isn't that complicated. We all know what comfort looks like. Asking how to make GDP go up is the wrong question, it is just a tool to point out when policies are wasting resources. More waste -> less GDP -> notice that and waste less -> reorient to secure prosperity.
