So, you are telling me that my girlfriend's college IT department, has the capability, through Office 360, of manipulating which folders to backup on the clients side? Man, I really hope it's Friday and my brain is exhausted and not getting what you said straight, otherwise, this weekend is gonna be a session of urgent OneDrive removal and Linux indoctrination for her.
It's not the public who is pleased. It's the talking heads, the newsroom bosses, the politicians, the corporate officers. The people who can spread the message that the public is pleased, regardless of whether the public is actually pleased.

And as long as the public is not incredibly angry, they'll mostly just quietly go along with it, because it's not worth fighting against. But they're not the source.

It's manufactured forgiveness.

No worries, I do think it's an interesting point that people talk about mental like it's reaching zen enlightenment. Though for what it's worth with roughly balanced teams, keeping your and your teams morale up and not getting mad seemed to be the biggest X factor a individual could bring, both in impact and because it seemed to be a fairly uncommon ability, which maybe ads a bit to the mystique.
Am I correctly summarizing this statement, for my own understanding?

“All values in the cosmos are integers. Decimals exist to help humans make comparisons between objects.”
Fleeing one centralized platform into another is futile, and will end in the same problems.

I wrote more about this below, covering less centralized protocols like Mastodon, Farcaster, BlueSky, nostr, and others:

What’s the evidence for your first statement? MySpace was a long time ago now. FB and twitter are “stagnant” but have been around for over a decade, even with other platforms popping up around them.

I think there is a bit of poetic license there.

Can't it?
Basically. Lots of people hate Musk. Lots of Twitter blue-checks hate Musk. This is an attempt to capitalize on this hate and come up with yet another platform that would be identical to all the other platforms.
There are 31,557,600 seconds in a year. And every year, 55 * 10^9 animals are killed (in the U.S.). That means at a frequency of 1.743kHz, life is extinguished, day and night. Just image a single wince of pain coming from getting punched unconscious. And then in the semi-hazy state, throat is slit as life grinds to halt, skin is removed. But it doesn't happen just once... it happens so often that if there was a single faint tick of clock each time, it would blur together into a high-pitched whine in the center of the most sensitive portion of hearing (between 1kHz and 4 kHz). 24 hours per day, every day of the year!

Check out "Entrance of the Gladiators" (ie, the stereotypical circus song.)

It uses all the notes on the chromatic scale, so it doesn't "fit" into a specific key. (But it's still considered to be in a specific key. The notes outside that key are the exception not the rule.)
mastodon is surprisingly good, imo. I joined about a year ago. It worked fine, but it was basically dead for me. I didn't know who to follow and I couldn't find anything interesting to do. Everything changed in the last couple of weeks. It's busy now. People are posting and interacting. A large chunk of German twitter moved over to mastodon completely. And a good chunk of electronics twitter is also now on mastodon. My timeline is simply a chronological order of post of people that I follow, no suggested post, no advertisement, etc. It's very possible the whole twitter-is-dead talk will be over in a week. But mastodon has some real traction.

The other Twitter threads on hn have been extremely bandwagony and contemptuous, and after reading hundreds and hundreds of replies, almost none were substantive, thoughtful, or informative.

Which is why it was so nice to see somebody talk through the technical risks rationally like this person. Interesting write up! I definitely learned something

Here’s hoping the discussion will be of similar quality as the referenced tweets!
Ask HN: Smoothest way to Remote Desktop from a Mac to local headless Ubuntu box?
I have a NUC in a closet running Ubuntu 20 with no monitor (but I have one those hdmi plugs in it that tricks it for resolution purposes).

It’s currently just a media server, but I’d like to run some scrapers and other projects on it, so I want a Remote Desktop that is as fast as possible. I currently use team viewer but it’s slow and latent and wouldn’t fly for any long term usage.

Any tricks here? I’m open to either doing some technical work to set something up or to pay for software to solve this

Sure, there are embrace-and-extinguish scenarios with decentralized protocols. But the alternative is that you’re always in the grip of some billionaire’s fever dream right from the start. Mastodon is live and resilient right now. The future is up to the users.

The quicker the technorati accept that Mastadon will never have mass adoption even remotely close to Twitter, the better. Glad Mastadon is doing its thing being like the IRC of twitter or whatever, but there's absolutely no way it ever truly competes. It should just be happy being a niche product for a niche audience.
> Ideally, IPv6.

Yes, if you have it everywhere you want to host services and everywhere you want to access these services, that's great. Realistically, I think it's going to be decades until an IPv6-only service is feasible.

> Otherwise, NAT traversal techniques such as STUN, or hole-punching.

Neither of which Wireguard supports out of the box. To be clear, it absolutely shouldn't – it's a different concern, and the appeal of Wireguard is specifically that it isn't trying to do everything and the kitchen sink.

So, is there an easy-to-use NAT traversal orchestration service for Wireguard out there that isn't Tailscale?
I absolutely was obsessed with MLB Showdown as a kid:

Card collection + dice game simulation. Was so much fun.
I meant it's not a "random tweet" from anon. As for "like we trust the press to be objective" you are free to trust whoever you want, but I have seen what "anti-MSM" people share in their uncensored places, and that's no better than mainstream journalism at all.
There's not really a process for monitoring what happens on an internet-connected app's backend.
I assume you understand basic economics in a capitalist system, supply vs demand, etc, so I'll interpret your first question as "why isn't it banned," which goes to your second question:

Sure, "we" can ban it, Ohio and the US are still nominally representative democracies, it just requires you and millions of others (people or dollars will work) to make your representatives care enough to enact legislation.

This is generally when ennui sets in and people move on to the next thing in their feed.
you're missing the point that not all of it was bullshit nutrition science. Research is an ongoing process.

> Whose P.R.-purposed apology was worse? Al Franken’s or Louis C.K.’s? ... At SorryWatch.com and @SorryWatch, Susan McCarthy and Marjorie Ingall have been

Let's take a look at what they say about those two, at https://sorrywatch.com/al-and-louie/ .

Franken's first apology was a not-pology. The second is described as, on the whole, a good apology.

As for Louis C.K.'s: "People! He never says he’s sorry! So many words, and none of them are “I’m sorry” or “I apologize”!"

And from https://sorrywatch.com/a-roundup-of-good-celebrity-apologies... : "Look, I’m feeling kinda demoralized by people thinking Louis CK apologized well, what with him not actually saying he was sorry. (As we note repeatedly here, REGRET IS NOT APOLOGY, chant it with me.)

I don't see how the author of this piece connects Franken's apology to "performed remorse". How are we to conclude it wasn't an expression of real remorse?
The cannnabis co? What were you using flowcharts for?
While I agree with your overall point, a longstanding previous trend does not indicate a present trend. This is a popular "fallacy fallacy". The metrics of evaluation can change while dumbing down still occurs.

If you look at the demographics of top 40 listeners today compared to forty years ago, the popularity of the hits are more narrowly confined to teens and young adults, particularly in the working class US and in developing Latin American countries. You can also look at the ethos of the top genres, such as rap and country, which are less broadly appealing than popular genres of the past such as rock, R&B, or even jazz.

This is driven by economics. Young people have more free time than adults, and they have greater access to music than they did in the pre-Internet age. So unless we think young music streamers have comparable taste to music-buying adults of the past, it seems likely that dumbing down to a certain point to meet the audience's expectations is more profitable than the alternative.
Sounds like you're describing RT America, which operated unimpeded until fiscal realities forced it to withdraw from the country. Was it a scummy network? Yes. Was it protected by 1A? Also yes.
Personally speaking, the main setback of fresh fruits and vegetables isn't the taste or the inconvenience of cooking with them, it's the spoilage. They go bad so quickly that it's a chore to keep them around and make sure they get used in time.
This is a good development and shows that there is appetite to move on to new, safer languages.

What would be even better, IMHO, would be to bring full software fault isolation (SFI) into the kernel and move to a model where many kernel services are implemented as Wasm modules.
I give builders the benefit of the doubt, especially if they've done it before. Especially if they've put rockets in space.

That he deleted that stupid tweet was admission it was stupid. Where did he say he never posted it though? It's highly unlikely he said that and wasn't joking. He knows everything he posts is captured immediately.
Atom cores were getting pitched a lot for micro servers at the time. At the time containerizing tech hadn't really taken off; Vagrant using full VMs was still bleeding edge env orchestration.
I think that Twitter won't fail anytime soon. These rash HR moves probably have a mid-term goal of completely replacing the company personnel. When 95% or so of donations made by Twitter staff went to Democratic party, it is safe to say that his political stance of allowing free speech for all parties will be heavily resented by the current workforce, and might lead to demotivation, low productivity and even sabotage. Replace potentially unloyal people who don't even want to go to the office with a new skeleton crew, get everything functioning, then bring in new personnel to work on new features.
Well, you probably enjoyed the art of artist that made it coz he was tripping on drugs at some point.

And in some cases that boost to creativity might've earned them a lot of money.

But yeah, I'd wager in vast majority of cases the outcome is neutral at best
Shocking to learn there’s bias in user curated content on the internet.
The i4 is overrated there. I think the 70mph test was only ~240 miles. The 3 LR does ~300 on the same test. The 3 also wins on charge speeds.

The Mach-E and ix are both a little better than they look though. The ix actually does amazingly well on range tests.
Did you see the Show HN post announcing cozo 10 days ago?

Note: there was a fair amount of discussion about the license; the author eventually switched it to MPL2.
Also keep in mind that everything assumes the equations are Lipschitz in order to guarantee uniqueness of the solution given specific initial conditions. But this is too optimistic.

Or you know, you can’t fire that many employees and expect things to go smoothly? There are open source projects at the cornerstone of the whole web that has a bus size of 1, and those are trivial compared to twitter. How anyone in their right mind think that they can just do away with than many people is just completely bonkers. Even the very best programmer is completely useless for a month on a new project, that’s the amount of business knowledge that is required.
A question... Why do humans (or at least engineers) work so well in 1,000?

I mean. I use milli/micro/nano/pico as an electrical engineer every day, and it's so intuitive to me.

But why three orders of magnitude? Why not two orders, or five?
> Had he hired an adult and done all of those changes with some thought instead of what he did I doubt anyone would have batted an eye.

I think that would probably have been a better plan, but people would still have absolutely lost their minds over it, because it's Elon.
Yes it is, it just isn't necessarily a form of processing to be avoided.
Not really... you are out in left field here. The fundamental rule of international trade regulation is reciprocity within classes of goods and services. It flies in the face of basic WTO principles to allow one partner to ban a whole host of services without reciprocal penalties. In practice, this sort of reciprocity gets broken all the time, but it doesn't make sense to say "we don't want to mirror other countries" when in trade policy, mirroring is a basic mandate of the WTO framework.
Not sure what you mean here? as_of() is easy to do efficiently, so long as you have tree indexes (it doesn't really matter what type of tree, though fractal trees would not be good).
But you need direct access to the tree, rather than having an index that's built using a tree, since then you can't build the phases.
> Small islands of decentralized communities (USENET newsgroups, dial-up BBS, vBulletin/phpBB forum websites, this HN website, and recent Mastodon interest, etc) do not accomplish the same thing.

Not true; you can build and own your own "island" and grow the population of your "island" to be quite large. This can and does happen quite regularly. It's the only sensible thing to do, really, if you want to build a sustainable platform.
Also Braeburn is mediocre?!?1
I used an extremely weak Acer netbook — the kind that shipped with Windows XP and still slowed down — as an Ubuntu home server and it worked surprisingly well. Apt didn’t mind the small, slow hard drive and everything seemed to actually run relatively fast. (I guess it just really hated drawing a GUI?) It was mostly a printer server, serving CUPS for a USB-only printer, but it did its job well for years and years. Plus the battery had an upside of serving as a UPS, heh.

But I did learn the hard way that they’re really not meant to run like that: the fan became increasingly noisy until it sounded like a car ignition, and the heat (when the fan was working fine!) managed to slowly wear out the membrane keyboard, killing more and more keys, making in-person debugging kinda difficult.

But it was really cool. And I still have its more performant cousin Asus netbook somewhere!
> Post will be a civil place to debate ideas; learn from experts, journalists, individual creators, and each other;

If a licensed practicing doctor recommends against getting the covid vaccine, for reasons, is he an expert or an anti-vax extremist?
Housing is typically cheaper in Japan because:

1. Depopulation

2. Efficient zoning laws

3. Rapid depreciation of home value over time due to natural risks(earthquake etc) and cultural norms
yeah, also, it would probably help to think in terms like "raw foods are better" instead of "processed food is bad". When shopping, just try to get as close to raw as you can instead of trying to determine the dividing line between good and bad.
Shop from local farms, if that's an option for you. All suffering won't be eliminated, of course, but if you want to consume animal products, it's way better IMO to support local farmers who are invested in ethical animal treatment and sustainable practices.
Musk dumping lots of Tesla shares to reimburse the loan may well crash Tesla price.
The current burst of activity is very much a "scramble for lifeboats" as people attempt to preserve a fraction of their social graph on Mastodon. But there won't be a big drop off in Twitter activity or relevance until Twitter goes full fail whale. Or there's a serious effort to kill the community somehow.

(posting "joinmastodon.com" on twitter now gets you the "not allowed to post that link error. I guess this is what Elon means by free speech)
If you have two competing theories, one requiring fine-tuned parameters and the other not, then the latter seems more plausible, because it requires less assumptions. Our universe being “typical” in the context of some theory just means that it requires less fine-tuning, and therefore the theory arguably has more merit.
Mac has a built in app called Screen Sharing that requires VNC to be setup and running on your Nuc. I did the same thing in fact. I wasn't able to find another way that was superior and the experience wasn't bad.

I don't see why those principles should apply to a foreign country with malign intentions, they aren't a person nor do they represent a populace given that China is authoritarian.

Did the author even read the abstract let alone the paper?

> We also found that while risk for the six outcomes in our analysis combined was minimized at 0 g unprocessed red meat intake per day, the 95% uncertainty interval that incorporated between-study heterogeneity was very wide: from 0–200 g d−1. While there is some evidence that eating unprocessed red meat is associated with increased risk of disease incidence and mortality, it is weak and insufficient to make stronger or more conclusive recommendations.

Doesn't sound like it particularly slams years of shoddy research.
William Archibald Spooner
The purpose is to fire or force self-termination of anyone who is not a 110% Elon fanboy who believes in building a new Twitter.

Whether or not that’s a good idea is debatable.
This is a misleading headline. The study restricts its focus to unprocessed red meat, indeed the word 'unprocessed' appears 72 times in the study.

https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-022-01968-z

Furthermore, the study does not separate growth-hormone-treated and antibiotic-treated meat, which is widely considered to have higher health risks.

Similarly, there's no mention of food-borne illnesses due to microbial contamination, again a higher risk in combined and processed meat (hamburgers, hot dogs, sausage etc.)

> "Approximately 128,000 Americans are hospitalized and 3000 die each year from foodborne illness. A ten-year study of 4589 foodborne outbreaks attributed 46% of these hospitalizations and 43% of the deaths to meat. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the primary federal agency tasked with regulating food, is aware of these statistics, and characterizes them as “largely preventable.” It is becoming clear that modern meat production methods allow pathogens to spread with ease, creating great food safety risks."

If FDA Does Not Regulate Food, Who Will? A Study of Hormones and Antibiotics in Meat Production (2015)

https://sci-hub.se/10.1177/0098858815591528

A single animal, raised on crops not contaminated with pesticides and herbicides, nor treated with antibiotics and growth hormones, and butchered in a food-safe manner with due regard for avoiding microbial contamination, is not a health risk.

This rules out, what, >95% of domestic USA meat production, at least?
I think it's not so black and white. When you eat meat you essentially eat what the animal ate. Wild elk is going to be a different "red meat" from factory farmed beef that ate only low nutrition corn grown with pesticides
Yes, its complicated. Most people are more concerned with highway miles in the real world, but the big number that gets printed is combined milage.
There's a golden mean between insufficient patriotism to defend your kin domain from an outsider whose victory would be genuinely worse than the current status quo, and insufficient self-criticism to prevent your kin domain from becoming worse than the current status quo through inertia. Navigating that kind of dichotomy can be learned through practice, I think the challenge in the US in particular is that the two political parties so associate the other one with one of the unhealthy extremes that the center has trouble holding.
It's called pipelining. If you have 5 floors of space to work with, there's no reason you couldn't run a 48 or 72 hour bacon-making process on a portion of the pork running through the facility.
Yes, that's the one. I found a compiled version somewhere because I was too lazy to install/learn Maven/Java stuff in order to build from source.
Bit of a stretch to call Rust a Corolla. A lot of the time they both compile to equivalent assembly, and when they don't, the run-time performance is usually very close.
I believe bacon just describes the cut. In my area of the US, you can buy a package of uncured bacon right alongside the usual cured varieties. I don't know for sure, but I'd imagine the slaughterhouses described here wouldn't be doing any processing outside of the slaughtering, butchering, and packing.
The root cause of the "environmental impact" is not meat itself, it's the number of people.

Like for most environmental issues it all boils down to 8 billion human beings and counting on this planet.
