Rikers is down about 50%-75% in occupancy since 1991 and there's a similar big dip in crime.

Distributed jails just make financial sense, though there's lots of other "progressive" reasons to make the change too.
After using Adobe stuff for many years, my stubbornness, with regards to subscriptions and cloud things, led me to buy the various bits of desktop Affinity software. I think they were only about £30 a piece, which isn't bad, but you really aren't buying Photoshop or Illustrator. Designer is a bit of a kludge, and V1 did seem like a work-in-progress. I was hoping a knife tool would be added before we got to V2.

There are techniques I'd been using for a long time, complicated little tasks with, on the face of it, simple results, that I wasn't able to reproduce in AD without a lot of thinking and farting around. For better or worse, this pushed me to change things up and explore other methods, and now I've learnt how to achieve things with programming, whether that's Processing or little things for Blender.

I know people operating businesses who've just stuck with an old computer running an old non-subscription version of the Adobe software they depend on. They don't really need anything from modern versions (some have been doing things since the '70s, adding computers to the mix in the '90s, and their techniques have not really changed all that much), and its Affinity kinda-equivalent is missing some little thing.

For me, just looking at the changes, V2 isn't terribly compelling. There are things I was doing ages ago in Illustrator that don't seem to be in Designer v2, like vector pattern swatches. Once you really get going with it, the absence of features or rough edges (see post in this thread about dashed borders) will leave you frustrated.

All that said, good on them for creating this affordable software, with no subscription.
tens of thousands if not millions of small, single proprietor or only slightly larger businesses are run entirely through facebook. it's the only way to learn about them, their hours, or contact them, and often the only way to buy things from them online.

In principle you can also use a phased array to remove the reverb. I'm not aware of any non-academic implementations though.
I agree, insofar that the integrated cellular emergency alert system is not good. I disabled all but presidential alerts (which should theoretically never happen until ICBMs are flying over our heads, except that one time in Hawaii), and signed up for City/County EMA texts for weather and hazards warnings. I also have a weather radio sitting in the corner with SAME alerts enabled.

Sure, that might not work well when I'm on travel, but when I'm on travel I'm typically in places with a ton of built-in mass notifications systems (airports, metro & train stations, roadside state DOT banners) so I don't feel I'm missing out.
You don't need to ask your manager, why not go to HR and stress that this is a sensitive topic you don't want making back to your team? No guarantee they'll honor your privacy, but I'd say it's worth a shot.
The Netherlands apparently has 17.5 million people, presumably some of which are children.

The USA has 332 million people, at least 3 of which are children, and gets about 200 Amber alerts/year (usually not nationwide, only locally, which can be an entire state).

The numbers line up if you count the "app notice" only ones.
That's the one thanks! I was just searching for the link.

This article seems to be confused or maybe just grinding for SEO.
Eg the section "Difference Between Flash and SSD Storage" doesn't cover the question, just has random flash facts and then makes some confused distinction based on form factor.

SSD is a higher abstraction term covering storage technologies like DRAM, SDRAM, and XPoint in addition to flash, and implies there's a storage management layer that presents a block addressable interface (like SATA or NVMe or USB storage etc). This layer also known as a FTL. The non-flash part is not practically very relevant those are extremely niche or extinct. But the abstraction part is relevant, some flash storage presents as SSD and some doesn't. For the latter the device storage driver stack needs to have more intimate flash device knowledge, and using specific flash device filesystem.

In the context of FlashDB, it supports raw flash without the SSD abstraction. This is to be expected as tiny embedded devices typically have raw flash and not SSDs. Eg here: https://armink.github.io/FlashDB/#/demo-esp8266-spi-flash
Surely you must have considered FHIRbase :P
When you work with a rebase-oriented workflow, it's very common to submit a PR for review and then address incoming review comments as fixup commits: https://blog.sebastian-daschner.com/entries/git-commit-fixup...

This necessitates force-pushing to your feature branch after all the fixup commits have been approved and then squashed. At that point you can merge the cleaned up feature branch in to your develop or trunk.

`--force-with-lease` is slightly better than `--force` because in the event that you're also working on a collaborative feature branch you won't overwrite any commits that somebody else pushed up that you haven't fetched yet.

> Have you ever laid someone off or fired them? Was it so easy?

I've heard this sentiment from people who have laid those off and it always falls flat to me.

Laying off 1 or 100 people compared to being laid off - especially when the person doing the firing, usually a Director or above, is making 3-4x at least what the line employees are - is like comparing pricking your finger with a needle to cutting it off with a dull knife.

It should be difficult if you're not a sociopath, but they're so incomparable it's not even a statement worth making or considering.
Oof, thanks for that warning. So it will blow away changes you haven’t merged (only fetched)?

I guess git can’t tell the he difference between “not merged yet” and “don’t want to merge, please destroy”
To have profits, you first need to create something of value. The game creates nothing of value, and it even fails to provide entertainment value (otherwise playing would be a reward itself, not a chore to outsource).

It's just another financial scam promising to create money out of thin air, and it even reinvented sweatshops as a side effect.
I would hope that's pretty obvious and a desired side-effect. Don't waste space on parking lots, but if you have to slap some solar over it.
Sounds like speculation, but the sh-101 (which was re released as a fun little $300 battery powered toy, great gift idea) was at the time one of the most accessible synths at the time. Knowing that, they are probably just extrapolating that he would have had access to it because it was so cheap and widespread.
It's expensive because Luxottica keeps quiet. It's a monopoly and needs to be broken up.
What about squashing commits in a merge? I don't do that all the time, but it is useful for certain things. Like repeated code changes to test something in the CI/CD pipeline (that I can't replicate well locally), where only the last change that got it working is of any interest.

You can get the same effect by reverting-to/checking-out a merge commit, or doing diffs between merge commits. You can also get a fairly clean history by only showing merge commits.

My rule of thumb is that any commit that has been pushed to a shared remote should never be re-written[]. If you're going to rebase, do it on your computer before pushing, or on your own repo before opening a merge/pull request.

[] exceptions would be removing accidentally committed secrets or large files that are no longer needed.
My point wasn't that this strategy was the right one, but that having a clear strategy is more important.

I personally prefer a more rebase-heavy approach, but what we had worked very well for us.
The iPhone even does this with the "find my iPhone" alert, it starts out vibrating and then makes noise and gets louder and louder until you find it.

Finding time to practice is tough! I am fortunate that I work 30 hours per week and can make time to practice for at least 30 minutes to an hour on most days. When time is tight I do things like practice electric bass in the kitchen while I am waiting for water to boil / food to cool / etc.

When I worked 40 hours per week often I didn't have energy to practice most days.
There is a big difference between something that is highly used, and something that is highly valuable.
Good to see more people realizing the kind of control browser makers give Google via this misfeature. It should not be acceptable for an unaccountable for-profit corporation to decide what the average person can or cannot see without any due process for site operators. Yet here we are. Get you software flagged by machine-learning algorithms? Too bad, pretty much every browser will prevent users from downloading it. And yes, prevent - even those browsers that still provide an override hide it well enough that many users will not find it. Appeal? If you are lucky and Google doesn't just deny it without reason then look forward to getting re-listed in a couple of weeks.
Also, keep on mind that Git is the engine with which Continuous Integration is made. CI is developers integrating with the work of one another on a regular basis. If the product changed since you started working on your new brach, then your branch is stale and you need to integrate with the recent changes. Why wait until you're done to find out that your branch can't be merged anymore and you have to make a ton of changes when you can keep on top of things at regular intervals and make the final merge as easy as possible, not just for you, but for the code reviewers, the QA guys, the DevOps guys, everyone.
The surprising benefits of blue spaces
Sorry, I misread it as wanting a different mechanism. Which I don't think is needed. Some compilers used #pragma for it, but that was ugly and ill-specified, and made it hard to work around missing features by defining your own version.

Forgive me! It's a broad topic, and one must always choose what to cover in a short internet post.

In short I think speaker selection and placement are about an order of magnitude or two more important than everything else. If those are the only two things you pay attention to and don't drastically screw the rest up, you'll have a nice sounding system.

Room correction (which is also speaker correction) is probably the next most important thing, although well into optional territory IMO.

There's lots more that I fuss over, but I don't want people believing that they need a lot of elaborate rituals and room alterations to achieve good sound. It's not true, it's counterproductive, and scares people away from this really fun hobby. =)

No EQ on earth will get rid of the reverb in an

So EQs can help, but you should also think
about the actual surfaces of the room itself.

You're completely correct, but I don't emphasize room issues too much for beginners. Why? In my experience, most residential rooms are actually pretty acoustically decent for a few reasons.

1. They tend to be filled with comfy padded furniture, bookshelves, etc. which do a nice job of breaking up high and mid frequency reflections.

2. The brain already performs a lot of "room correction" and it's particularly good at performing it in familiar spaces like our own homes.

3. Most people's home systems (especially those of beginners) aren't putting out the kind of massive low frequency output that's really troublesome to tame.

Of course there is always going to be a room mode or three, usually with a prominent one somewhere in the midbass range.

Who doesn't love spending 5x as much per megawatt hour and getting it delivered in 20 years instead of 3 months?

The answer is usually somebody who wildly overestimates how much storage is needed and wildly underestimates the feasibility of delivering that.
> Not to mention crime has been increasing...

Rikers was opened in 1932. It's seen far higher crime rates than this year's.

Murders, for example, are 1/4 what they were in the '90s: https://twitter.com/brianpmangan/status/1588275665350012928

Coverage of crime, though, disproportionately spiked, which is likely why folks think crime is high: https://twitter.com/brianpmangan/status/1588277958556274688

I think he meant the other option, if done by square meter. Then suddenly you have what would have been an 80 spot lot, is now a 90 spot lot, and a lot of dinged doors.
Think GP is saying that if lot owners are forced to bear the cost of installing solar panels, this could encourage them to squeeze more spaces in. It could be that France has some regulations on car parking space size which would prevent this, however
Good question. I don't know the answer. And that points to the problem, really. In rhe world as ut is, there isnt really a way to realistically imagine a CEO doing anything meaningful to take responsibility for a self-admitted error lile this.

If, just for the sake of argument, I said he should resign or compensate the affected people out of his own pocket, I'm fairly sure that people here would think I was being naive. People here are already saying that corporate leaders wouldnt take decisions if they had to be held responsible for the outcomes.

So we end-up with a bunch of people who everyone knows (a) are not responsible for mistakes, and (b) are tacitly understood to be able to make statements that habe no meaning. In other words, lies.

And thus the domain of trust becomes smaller and more fractured.
Show HN: Free, open-source Codespaces alternative with automatic HTTPS
Hey HN,

Eleven is the second project that I've built to learn Go. It lets you create code sandboxes, in your cloud provider account, easily.

What's a "code sandbox"? Just a VM, running in your cloud provider account, with some runtimes pre-installed, your repositories cloned, a way to connect to it with your preferred editor (or via SSH) and a way to serve your apps easily via HTTP (with automatic HTTPS).

You could use it as a remote development environment, to test some code or even to deploy your app. It's up to you.

For example, to deploy a Node.JS app:

$ eleven aws init hello-world --runtimes node@18.7.0 --repositories eleven-sh/hello-world

> Success! The sandbox "hello-world" was initialized.

$ ssh eleven/hello-world forever node index.js

> Forever: command started. Run "forever stop" in current path to stop.

$ eleven aws serve hello-world 8000 --as hello.eleven.sh

> Success! The port "8000" is now reachable at: https://hello.eleven.sh

$ curl https://hello.eleven.sh

> Hello World

Still learning Go by the way, so I'm open to any suggestions to improve.
I made a change that should help.

By default, animations start and end "softly", because it's just nicer overall.

For the buttons in question, I updated them so that they have a hard start and a soft end.

The result is that if you reload the page, the animations start much more quickly and it's more obvious what's happening.

The problem with a simple click is that the transformation would be instantaneous, and it wouldn't look very good. Or, I can start the transformation with a click and let it end later — but then I'd need a reset button.

Anyway, I appreciate your feedback!

OP isn't saying it's "easy". They are pointing out that forming a startup is achievable by a small (scores = several 20s ~= 60-100) number of people impacted.
It's not really, but there are a couple minor differences in practice.

First, it assumes the name of your upstream repository is "origin" which is fine in most cases as that is what `git clone` defaults to naming the remote.

Second, using `HEAD` always pushes your current checked our branch to your remote with a remote branch of the same name. It's a neat trick to skip the "`git push` -> you need to set your upstream branch -> push command the git outputs" loop.

Lastly, `--force-with-lease` is a safer version of `--force` or `-f` because it tries to ensure that you don't overwrite history accidentally. The `--force-with-lease` flag will fail if a coworker for example pushed a commit to your branch that you didn't know about. Where a regular `--force` would just overwrite that change.

I assume that the command is meant to be "safe" and "foolproof", in that this command should always work.

Since the parent post recommends a lot of rebasing in their other commands, you'll need a `--force` or `--force-with-lease` to push new commits because they won't be "fast forwardable"

France is not the US, covered in car parks. Those large, open-air car parks are pretty much exclusively located at the out-of-town shopping areas/malls (say where your local Ikea is located, 'zones commerciales' in French like, for instance, this beauty [1]) and out-of-town large office campuses.

They are built because they are needed, and regulations do not make it easy to build more of them. They also do not really "impose costs" on society.

what is "vanced"?
A normal push will only advance the remote branch if your local branch has the tip of the remote branch as an ancestor. This ensures you're only adding commits to the remote branch and not replacing any commits on the remote.

But if you've pulled the remote branch, rebased, and now wish to push, the tip of the remote branch is longer an ancestor of your local branch. In this scenario, to update the remote branch you have to do a force push.

But now imaging that another developer has added new commits to the remote branch in the mean time. If you do a force push, you will overwrite those new commits.

Using "--force-with-lease" ensures that the tip of the remote branch hasn't changed since you last pulled it, so that your force push isn't erasing any commits on the remote by accident (i.e. it ensures the remote branch has not changed in between when you last pulled it and your current force push.)
