B612 – Airbus Cockpit Font
B612 is an highly legible open source font family designed and tested to be used on aircraft cockpit screens.
Hi HN, author here. I set out to do a casual comparison of deploy speeds between Reflame and other popular services, not expecting a whole lot of differences between the others (since most of them were just spinning up VMs/Containers and running the same CLI tools).

I ended up finding out that Netlify had some _really_ long queuing times that made it 50s+ slower than it needed to be (and made it fall wayyy behind the others). This queuing was fairly consistent on weekdays, and I've tested dozens of times over the past few weeks with similar results.

Until they do something about this I'd recommend looking into one of the others tested here if you care about deployment speed: i.e. Vercel if you want something popular and works as a drop in replacement, Reflame if you want to never wait for a deploy ever again, even for a second, and don't mind doing putting in some upfront work (I'll be around to help you through the process ofc). :)

I also made a Twitter thread here if you want an abridged version: https://twitter.com/lewisl9029/status/1591530406909997056
But, you always have good editor support. Lisp/Scheme has traditionally been coded using Emacs or its equivalent. With that support, the parens seem to disappear after you've been writing lisp for awhile.

Beginner lispy languages come with a suitable beginner IDE, e.g. Racket or Logo.

A typical lisp statement has a leading '(' and a trailing ')', which replaces the ';' in Algol-like languages. So, one additional character, which brings a lot of benefit when writing DSLs and macros.

(Python doesn't have the ';', but its whitespace is ambiguous, so that's not a fair comparison.)

Sane people don't write lisp using Notepad.

I said 85% of HN people would probably agree with an anti-telemetry argument. Something closer to 95% would agree with "trends towards closed source development tools are bad". My question for you: why do you "regret" these comments? What aren't we hearing about this story right now? This isn't adding up.
I sometimes take commuter flights between San Jose and San Diego, which are almost always Southwest 737's, and I've only seen 6,000 feet on the barometer when I've checked, probably about half a dozen times out of curiosity. FWIW.
Fair point. I wonder if there is a big difference depending on where one lives. For instance, if one were to live in the country, surrounded by trees...
> It reveals the UAE’s bid, spanning multiple U.S. administrations, to exploit the vulnerabilities in American governance, including its reliance on campaign contributions, susceptibility to powerful lobbying firms and lax enforcement of disclosure laws intended to guard against interference by foreign governments

What can you say?

A political system dominated by electioneering, where democratic success is determined by campaign financing, is guaranteed to attract this type of behaviour. Can't really even blame the UAE for doing this, no doubt everyone else with the resources is doing likewise. Got a problem with these outcomes? Plug the holes in the governance, reform the political system.

OpenSCAD is extremely tedious to use, although I very much like the idea. The main Problem to me seems that it has zero facilities for helping you do parametric modelling.
Usually, if you want to have a certain 2D shape in a parametric modeller you can specify a few basic parameters and let the software derive the rest, in OpenSCAD the duty is on you to derive a geometric equation which gives all points for the shape given the parametrs.
It very quickly becomes non-stop highschool geometry for everything you want to do.

I think you could have a language where you programatically specify a shape, which is then compiled into e.g. an array of points and can then be used in the programm.
Good thing we create things like "forever chemicals", nuclear waste, single-use plastics then I guess ;)
Or they got screwed and thought about how to screw the higher ups even more. They never need to cash out the money to do this.

Nobody will ever not be suspicious of SBF and his inner circle again after this hack.

If it were just a big collapse and it went like an ordinary bankruptcy with the creditors getting a haircut, he'd just be considered an idiot. Money mysteriously vanished? Now he's malicious as well, and any court is going to ask SBF where it went, and even if he didn't know nobody would believe it.

Weird to see meta employees humanized in this way. They all made the choice to throw their lot in with zuck, and they continued to make that choice every day they showed up for work.

It's hard to feel sympathy, everyone there can get a lower paying job that is beneficial to society and they choose not to. That's on them. Nobody at meta lacks other options.
IMO Google has been slowly condensing/removing the address bar in Chrome so people think Google Search == web, and I think your anecdote shows that it's working.

The business model for all CAD software companies inevitably trends toward stagnation and lock-in, because CAD software companies don't use CAD software -- they just develop it. The motivations are self-defeating.

Typical CAD companies can only ever try to keep up with user demands and keep them from leaving to greener pastures, while squeezing customers for profit. Examples: Dassault Solidworks (stagnant), PTC ProE/Creo (dying), OnShape (bought by PTC, on the road to death), Autodesk AutoCAD (stagnant), Inventor (stagnant), Fusion (new, cloud-based, pay-to-use vending machine).

The only commercial exception to this is CAD software from Siemens, which is forty years old and continues to get better. Siemens is an infrastructure company [0], not a CAD software company. They use the software they develop to do the things their company does. Their CAD products -- NX (top-tier) and Solid Edge (mid-tier) -- are used by Siemens to design the hardware (motors, turbines, and so on) that make up their core business (trains, generators, etc.). Revenue from selling CAD software is just a side-effect.

Improvement and maintenance of NX & Solid Edge serves to improve the product for its users, who are also its owners. They are not motivated simply to find new ways to increase profitability by squeezing out recurring revenue from their CAD customers. This is why Siemens can license the Parasolid kernel to other CAD vendors -- because the others will will never catch up. For years, Siemens barely marketed Solid Edge at all -- they are that good.

(Apple is another example of a company that uses the tools and products they sell to develop the tools and products they sell; Steve Jobs may not have been a programmer, but dropping acid probably helped him to understand recursion.)

It strikes me as a naturally human and totally understandable thing to do.

This seems like their way of reclaiming some agency over what happened to them, as well as trying to put a brave face on things. Also it probably helps them (re)connect with some sense of community — the article mentions they'd usually post these things on their internal forum, but they were ripped away from that community too quickly.

Some might even say it's a classy move — take a step back and reflect on the good parts, hand out some "thank you"s, etc.

I never got into the whole "posting on LinkedIn" thing — and I probably still wouldn't in this situation — but I think it is easy enough to empathize and see why someone might. These are weird and rough economic times, and they're just doing their best to stay afloat. Same as you or me.
That's your (and my) goal, not corporate America's or totalitarian regimes', which are both different flavors of authoritarianism.
It's really going to depend on your experience.

Low years of experience or a poor resume/CV? Yeah, I bet it's a bit harder than usual.

10+ years or a great resume/CV? You're still getting flooded, although Amazon and Meta spam have stopped for a bit.
No, I've never claimed that. Regardless of what you think about Bitcoin, if it's useless or not, don't you agree that net negative is better than zero?

Burning methane (flaring) is most definitely an improvement over not doing it. That's just a fact. It accounts for about 20% of global emissions and is 25 times as potent as CO2. https://www.epa.gov/gmi/importance-methane

You would use Bitcoin mining as a monetary incentive to flare methane. You could do other things but it requires more infrastructure investment and might not even be possible in certain locations that are far from where the electricity would be used.

Maybe not as easy as at the peak, but still not that bad. However, you can definitely have just a run of bad luck, no matter what the job market is like. Maybe try companies in a different industry than the ones you've been interviewing for so far?
got a feeling CZ is the hero in this story, especially if SBF is found to ultimately be behind the Celsius and Luna / Terra crashes earlier in the year
Yeah, thanks for assuming the best about me.

Your last paragraph has lots of words, but completely misses the point. The ruling said that the President can't spend the money without Congressional authorization. That is what makes it unconstitutional - the President can't spend money by executive order unless it's previously authorized.
The tone of this comment is abrasive, but I agree. I _thought_ IFixIt's whole scoring system was about repairability. Not performance, not best value but also repairable.

Feels weird to just throw that out.

Also how does this get a 7/10 when you still have to unglue the screen to do anything but a storage upgrade?
Just like cash is a crime magnet, so is Crypto at rest, and for the same reason.

If anything, Crypto is easier to track and stop the looting, compared to if someone left a key to a warehouse containing a billion dollars in cash in it with no security cameras, which is what FTX seems to have managed to do.
BRL-CAD is CSG instead of B-rep geometry. Different use-case.
They can either send it back or add it to their ledger. You are conflating sending to an address with an exchange keeping a balance. A cryptocurrency and an exchange are two very separate things.
I think the parent comment is alluding to the notion that the very entry level programmer enjoys being able to use notepad. That is to say the initial barrier of eMacs is just too much. Obviously worth it in the long run though.
I'm afraid I think the long term coevolution of gut biomes ship sailed around the time we started indiscriminately slaughtering those gut biomes with antibiotics. (not to mention importing large numbers of unfamiliar alternatives through changes in food systems, and at least in some cases raising kids in crazy-sterile environments). So I tend to agree with you that this doesn't seem like a good thing to rush into, but it's interesting as a possible form of repair.
It's crazy, I got banned from a silly subreddit for not really doing anything wrong but fair enough, it's one where the mods are known to be like that.

I have a different account that I use on a work computer, I ended up posting in that same subreddit without realising my original account was banned (hadn't logged into it and noticed that was the case)

Reddit Perm banned both accounts for ban evasion and for awhile any other account I made, even though i did nothing wrong or didn't post on that subreddit again, until I made sure to use completely clean profiles whenever I want to use reddit.

Annoying.
> "Narrow" would have been something like "this bill authorizes spending $X on Y", leaving the executive branch to decide which of those specific authorizations to take advantage of in that specific Act.

What you describe is how things are generally done, and there is no legal issue here, nor would it be challenged in court.

If you are referring to executive order on student loans, then IIRC, some amounts were authorized for student debt forgiveness, but they were not in the same timezone as what the executive order was trying to spend (which was $430 Billion). I know this is an emotional issue for many people and hits their personal finances, but that's a lot of money to spend by executive order. One can even say that the fact that so many people would have their finances improved by this EO is kinda proof that it involves spending a lot of money, it's more than the budgets of the US Airforce and the US Navy added together.

With the surface pro 9 its worth noting theres only two usb-c ports, and no headphone jack.

Frustrating as i currently use an HP elite x2 tablet and make full use of the three usb-c ports (charging, tethering, and many times a keyboard) and headphone jack. It's fairly repairable too since its considered more of an enterprise-class device, sadly been discontinued afaik.
It's an AP news wire. The point is to report about the event, not the details or background of the situation
Hehe that is a funny comment.
>There should be more discussion about how to store value

What value? All crypto is people trading checksum numbers.
> They're a business, not a public utility.

That's the standard line. And it has problems when applied to companies with tens of millions of users.
You still have to unglue the screen though. And it gets a 7/10?

I really like the Dell Latitude 2-in-1 (tablet) as my Surface clone/replacement. It's held together by screws and it has had Thunderbolt for quite a while now!
I came to the comments explicitly looking for this :)
What if its a frame job?
Yes, that could be the case. I'll keep looking, I'm not in a hurry too.
Being banned from GitHub can prevent you from doing your job or gaining future employment. Being banned from a single McDonalds doing prevent you from buying fries at 90% of places that sell fries.

How does that happen, the smaller plane would appear to be almost perfectly placed to see the B-17?
I mentioned to a doctor that my weird symptoms stop when I take doxycycline. He declared I had Sjogrens. An autoimmune condition. Says he’s seen that lots of times.

Went and got tested. Doctors told me I was nuts and antibiotics have nothing to do with autoimmune. All results came back positive. Doctors still say nothing related.
First, I don’t think there’s just one metric to use, and it’s a tall argument to say funding of all things should be ignored.

Second, I think the stat you focused in on probably doesn’t tell enough of the story, either. Crime rate is HALF what it was in 1987, so police per crime is significantly up since then. Also, advancements in policing and technology would lead to fewer officers needed per capita if they’re like most industries. For instance, we have 25% fewer pilots per capita[1], but 3x the flights of 1990.

For those long time smokers. Who remembers KB or kind bud?
Yeah that's my question. How would I remove more CO2 than I produce.

I've got the window closed, I have a few houseplants, and I am already considering getting rid of Mr. Tiddlesworth, my cat.

Is there some sort of machine I can buy? Like direct air capture?

I only need this in like two rooms of the house.
Hehe. Mostly I just troll but I did mean this seriously.
This is not going to change anytime soon. No one really cares about staying alive; climate change, diet, COVID. And COVID is now endemic and a pandemic.

So either quit your job or learn about staying healthy when exposed to viruses that deplete zinc and other nutrients.

Zinc deficiency lowers Tertrahydrobiopterin, which lowers coupled NOS, which lowers your immune system (NOS2) and gives you hypertension (NOS3) and makes you mental (NOS1). The Lower zinc also gives you diabetes. PubMed links for anyone who cares, but you probably don't.
> From your tone it seems like you think I'm trying to defend crypto in this thread.

Yes I got ranted at for suggesting "fools racing towards a cliff" as a better description. These threads appear to have attracted a lot of people looking for a fight and will jump on any nuanced post as a "pro" side.
Freezing property tax ends up being wealth redistribution from the entire rest of society to landlords as the article walks through. Second order effects also end up locking up the housing market as a whole and pushing prices ever higher making everyone worse off in the long run.
Yeah and it might be the case that the timing is pretty bad, hiring freezes probably matter.
3500ppm? That would imply an average CO2 level well above 1000ppm. No wonder why it's impossible to stay focused in lecture halls...

I notice that if I perform a large amount of physical activity during the day, like playing soccer, I'm tired (obviously). However, the lack of energy applies to both physical and mental tasks.
If your employment is limited because you are banned arbitrarily from a tool for any reason then the situation is wrong.

Regardless of that, my entire org relies on github globally. If we could not onboard or retain someone due to this I would raise this with our risk and compliance board and the product would be written off from the accepted vendors list almost immediately and cause a fuck load of evaluation and migration work and a $100k/year enterprise customer to disappear for them. That's how bad this is.

We already did this to two other vendors and we don't get a choice. It's a business risk.
A 20cm antenna will be a 1/4 wave at 375 MHZ (and a half wave at 188Mhz, etc), and thus will be a very efficient radiator at many different frequencies.

Even a tiny signal can be enough to block the operation of a nearby police repeater (which is also trying to hear weak signals).
The lifestyle divide is obvious. If its not an enriching activity (or something you genuinely enjoy), its just a fad exercise to go with a fad diet.

I've been enjoying golf for 3 decades now and skipped the gym and other sports. I still embrace it like the 1st day.

Golf is unique though. It takes a genius to break their own body with such a beautiful sport :)
