Most of the "tiny house" that are on a trailer are because it's legally registered as an RV, same as a real travel trailer. With a trailer title for the underlying frame registered in your state with a license plate in exactly the same legal way as if you bought a boat trailer or a flatbed cargo trailer.

Theoretically this means it doesn't need to meet building code and go through the approval process in whatever rural location you put one on land as its only dwelling, or as an ADU. It's an attempt at a legal workaround saying to the local government "this is totally NOT A HOUSE it's my RV trailer!".

But by the time you hook it up to water supply, electricity and sewage disposal it effectively becomes fixed in place.
It's completely irrelevant to what I wrote and to the wider thread.

US/NATO needs the capacity to deliver, well, stuff that goes boom, regardless of whether it is a murderous regime, a peace-loving hippie or anything in-between. Its weapons procurement will look basically the same in either case.

I could argue about what you wrote but as I consider it OT, I won't.
> UB is clearly undesirable, but assuming it is impossible and deducing other outcomes must be meant are clearly wrong assumptions by the compiler writer.

Compilers can and absolutely do assume that UB is impossible in this code (no integer overflow) and deduce other outcomes must be meant (the loop operates on contiguous memory):

void foo(char* arr, int32_t end)
{
for (int32_t i = 0; i != end; ++i)
arr[i] = 0;
}

(Based on code from the gist comments.)
You're using the words "low trust society" to mean something different than I am, which doesn't strike me as particularly helpful.

If you as a person do not want to trust government regulation, that's great! Please do your own research, test food quality yourself, and inspect the kitchen every time you want to order a burger.

Also, if you don't want "the others" in "our diverse society" to be seen as a dog whistle, you should perhaps choose some different phrasing.
You seem sincerely misled. If you consult more reliable sources, you can cut past the propaganda machine, on this and on other topics.

There has always been plenty of money available to people willing to seek to mislead you in this way. It is absolutely legal to publish falsehoods, even in what looks like legitimate media.
People who lie to you about X will happily lie to you about Y.

It is embarrassing to learn you have allowed yourself to be misled, but they are often very, very good at it. The US was fooled into invading Iraq, as in previous wars.
“Our 500k developers would not pay to use it. Our diagnosis is that individual developers do not pay for tools.”

I don’t like depending on something I could lose in a month or tethers me to the internet. I consider that more a service than a tool. I’d prefer to just buy something once that just works, but that business model might be dead too since people will pirate things that aren't tethered to some serverside component.

I guess what I’m saying is that I want to buy tools, but people are only renting. Personally I’m largely holding out hope this becomes someone’s open source passion project and I can truly own my tools.
Every single time? Mine don't do that. I get the occasional suggestion, that's it. Maybe the suggestions were more frequent when my Google home devices were new and I needed to be "trained." How long did you use yours before giving up?

In that case, try Poland. It was destroyed very thoroughly and methodically, with all the famous German attention to detail, so to say. And the subsequent occupation by the Soviets didn't help either.

Looking at contemporary Poland, one would hardly believe that the country was a heap of ruins and dead bodies mere three generations ago.
To your point, I've noticed open floor plans often offer less flexibility. E.g. having a formal dining room allows you to turn it into an office or another bedroom much more easily.
Hey if we're going to talk language, maybe you should just use 'Kife', it looks like Kite and means to steal. (Allegedly derived from Old English word 'kip', net says it's British slang, but I've heard it a few times in northeast US.
It's a hard situation: the relative safety of standard investments contributes to bad judgement when people end up in a red in tooth and claw unregulated market. Similar people used to theme parks going to a national park and falling to their death in a waterfall or being gored by buffalo.

Not that I think the safety rails are bad... if you had to be maximally cynical you'd never even bother taking an investment with only 2% yield, it just wouldn't be worth the meta-risk (the risk you misunderstood the risk!).

Probably one of the worst things about the FTX press puffery is the implication that FTX was more regulated or pro-regulation, ... probably causing people to think it was a part of the relatively safe major markets where the risks are usually reasonable and the asset returns tends to be fair relative to the risk.

I filed complaints with the government over the Gemini earn program because they were heavily marketing to retail users with comparisons to savings accounts while, AFAICT, actually consisting of effectively unsecured investments in ponzi schemes ('yield programs') whos risks weren't meaningfully disclosed. Never heard back, now that it's imploded perhaps I should try FOIA-ing any communication resulting from my complaints.
One is marketing and/or hucksterism.

The other is a moat.

They absolutely are not going to announce/reveal their moat, especially when it loses a lot of its value as a moat when it is revealed.

It seems like there are some doubters here.

Just remember that you heard it here first when it happens.

Expect 500-600 mile range for current vehicle line and substantially lower prices for current “long”range of ~320 miles, probably sold as one-motor “standard range” in order to keep the markets siloed.
Does it seem to only understand imports of public libraries? If so, it's likely that, rather than understanding the contents of those libraries, it's learning from others' use of those library APIs. If not, it is likely just understanding the words in the API at a shallow depth.
Yeh this blog post felt like they had a title and something they wanted to write about, but the two weren't on the same topic.

If you're going to talk about accountability your closing speech ought to at least mention the idea.
Music works for me, as long as it has no complex lyrics and I don't spent too much time searching for the perfect music to listen for the task at hand.
> There's a sort of naive head in the sand acceptance or embracing of hype that pervades everything,

I don't think this is true. I think that people who are selling things generate hype for those things that they're selling, and our media not only depends on those sellers to pay for ads, but additionally is owned by people who are also invested in those things that are being sold.

I think this can easily be misinterpreted as everything being hyped up, rather than everything being designed to trick you into supporting things that benefit people who sell, whether they're politicians or toilet-brush sellers. This is happening because our politicians, toilet-brush sellers, and media are owned by the same people. They rely on you buying in, or at least not being able to organize or sustain an opposition. We've allowed the world to consolidate so much that separating sales and news is impossible. They're operating from the same address.

Main point: not everything is being hyped. Scams that benefit the people who own the media that hype spreads through are being hyped.
I have one slightly smaller one (180sqft) and while I still have yet to live in it full time (it's a WIP) it already feels claustrophobic sometimes. Every inch counts, but it's also important to have open-ness outside the tiny home too.

What I really wanted was the ability to experiment with so many things I would not be allowed to do in a traditional home, without worrying about blowing a bunch of money or hurting a $200k+ home I don't own/have a mortgage on. There's a lot I inherited from the previous owner, but it'll have custom automation and control software for the climate (dehumifier, heat exchanger, monitoring of power usage, etc), my dream programming space (converting the previous owner's "balcony" into a sort of indoor/outdoor deck with a massive transparent rollup door), and integrating more screens into my life (controlled by me, not loaded with any proprietary stuff that will inevitably hurt me).

But it's also just me and my cat. I've told partners already that I don't think I could live in this with anything more than that.
> The adversary has a limited ability to monitor short-range communication channels (Bluetooth, WiFi, etc).

That seems like a pretty big assumption. From what i understand there already exists deployment of wifi hot spots to track people (both for advertising purposes and for spying purposes) to the extent that phone providers started radomizing MAC addresses.
It's not just about system time, it's about unpinned dependencies on external things. E.g. if you run apt update, after a package is updated upstream, it may install a newer version.

There aren't enough dwellings near the jobs. That's the whole problem.
Increasingly, the network is a failure boundary people take for granted.

Micro/3rd party services exacerbate this problem. You may see latency increase for a particular call, but what tells you why latency is increasing? What's measuring all of these tech choices, how do you know your 3rd party api is serving you traffic reliably?

Can you manage ACLs through this? Anyway looks sweet, I’m going to try it on Monday at work. This is definitely something I’d pay for.
Except sometimes you do fix it later.

Approve the PR when there's a bug/task filed to fix the thing later and then prioritize that work as necessary.

Just as bad as never fixing things later is never releasing anything until it's perfect, which it never is.
Show HN: New cost of living daily game
Hi everyone, decided to create a daily game (yet another one), this time based on numbeo.com information about cost of living around the world.

Give it a shot at https://www.costerly.com, feedback is welcomed

And share your results!

Thank you.
That looks correct. I was referring to the 911, which has a steeper angle.
Tangent, but I never understood the cargo-cult anti-smoking culture in the US; it was a perfect reflection of their media hypnotization. The people that would do a thousand different rebellious, risky, or damaging stuff would recoil in horror if you ask if they ever had a cigarette, as if one puff will char and shrivel your lungs or something.
For work we are using their API together with our data set. Works great.

> Another key piece of evidence, the failure of all FSD attempts trying to use ml/dl thinking its more than just statistics.

I would almost put FSD as a good example here. Yes, some attempts here are very naive and try to use ML as a magic black box tries to covers a long stretch of the system from vision to turning the steering wheel. However the best performers just utilize ML for small well-defined parts of the system and in a "statistics on steroids" way with most of the other parts utilizing much more traditional methods.
Your question is understandable given the hysteria about those connectors, but they're power connectors and it seems there were only ~50 cases in total, mostly down to the connector not being inserted fully (with a handful due to manufacturing defects).
There should be a devil's dictionary entry for "systemic" or "systematic" or related terms like "structural"
"I also question how well tiny homes make sense as a solution for long-term housing"

I also agree. This article is one of the few examples of a tiny house situated in what seems like a dense urban environment. In contrast, many tiny homes are placed among open space. The tiny homes don't feel cramped because they're surrounded by nature, with beautiful long uninterrupted views out of the windows. No noisy neighbours or traffic nearby either.

But take away the countryside location of these tiny homes and could the tiny house work in an urban environment? I doubt it. The future for housing for most people on the planet (including the US) is in cities and urban environments. Can you live in a tiny home where you don't have long, uninterrupted views out of your windows? Or where you only have windows along one side of your dwelling (e.g. single-aspect apartments). Do you feel you have enough privacy when your apartment or house is joined with your neighbour's home?

Millions of people already live in homes like this and have to contend with these issues. Can we have small or modest-sized homes that give us light, space, privacy, quiet and comfort in a noisy urban setting? It's one of the most pressing and important issues in housing design - and one that architects and home builders have failed to address.

Also, space can be 'modest' in size rather than 'tiny' and still be sustainable or amenable to high density. For example, London has it's own housing design guide that recommends new one bedroom apartments for two people to be a minimum of 50 square metres (538 square feet). That's still less than space standards in continental Europe but it's enough space to live comfortably even if it doesn't count as tiny by Western standards.
> AFAIK that was limited to the first $10k in deposits, so it seemed plausible as a some sort of customer acquisition cost

$800 per year per customer? Ehh. Also, above $10k and up to $10m it was 5%/yr... which I think breaks that explanation as no one is going to argue that a half million dollars a year is a reasonable customer acquisition cost! :)

> going rate for decentralized lending protocols,

Don't use euphemisms here, the term is ponzi schemes. These yield programs were across the board ponzi schemes with no substantial source of income other than the deposits of other users.

(and don't let the fact that Bitcoin critics have called it a ponzi scheme in the past confuse you: Bitcoin has never promised a yield, it doesn't need a source of income. The fact that bogus criticism uses a word doesn't make it less legitimate where it applies.)
I lived on 32 sqm until very recently (I moved this Thursday) and now I have 118 sqm.

700 sqm sound like an endless dusting and cleaning chore to me, unless you can afford to have servants.
When I tried kite over a year ago I was relatively unimpressed with it. Even though it ran as a plug-in to jet brains IDE it required a windows installed service and two separate executables running in the background (kite.exe, kited.exe), and that stuff continue to run after exiting my IDE which was unacceptable for me.

Kite may have been the first to market but copilot blew them out of the water in terms of overall functionality.
Building a completely p2p (no servers) e2ee messaging app is not hard except one big problem: contacts discovery. I looked through briar website and it seems the solution is to constantly ping all contacts and hope that everyone is online plus at least one of IPs stays the same between pings. Did I miss something more interesting?
Kite has been around for a lot longer, if anything Copilot was Github copying them

Thank you for the reply. Truly. To get further into this we would need something more conducive than the comment section.

I wish I understood why you see Redox and SerenityOS as so similar ( other than POSIX of course ). I love Redox but it seems to have very different ambitions and choosing Rust felt like its biggest decision. In terms of innovation, the Redox filesystem seemed to be swinging for the fences the most. The filesystem is the one area that SerenityOS has shown very little interest. I hope Redox is not dead ( though it does “feel” slower ). It would be nice if Relibc got some traction outside of the Redox project as well.

To repeat one point, the hope I have for the mono repo is precisely that it will protect the project from getting trapped in technical stasis and frozen in a wasteland of dependencies. If SerenityOS gets popular, it could be exactly the vehicle for taking some of those academic ideas you cite out of the lab and into the real world. If it is to do this, becoming popular first is why it may succeed where decades of projects have failed. SerenityOS made a change not that long ago which altered what is returned by “main”. The mono repo made that possible.

Oh, and I am not sure Andreas has set himself up as the BDFL. SerenityOS has substantial chunks that have been added without him and I am believe there are already at least a few areas that he does not even have to approve or review. SerenityOS has its own Linus for example and I am pretty sure he can check-in without Andreas now.

Anyway, thank you for the back and forth and I hope you see an OS emerge that interests you. I hear what you are saying.
Adding telemetry plus yet another service to fix the complexity of having a lot of services sounds a bit like de-escalating a conflict by slapping someone in the face.

It always depends on the specific use case of course, but maybe it's also worth investigating if reducing the overall complexity of the system + amount of microservices could be a solution.
> They're stupid inflated right now. Pre pandemic, they were selling for ~7500 used in the US.

Some stats indicate that second hand car prices are plummeting at the moment now that supply chains are normalising. I suspect this won't extend to electric cars which kind of have their own supply-side problems though!
That's interesting because it does seem like despite how unhealthy it is, it was very much a social activity. And I think the indoor smoking bans only reinforced that social ritual as smokers were forced to gather outside bars and restaurant to smoke. "Do you have a light" has probably been one of the biggest conversation starters in history. What I see now is mostly people having a cigarette in one hand and the smart phone in the other. The chatting with fellow smokers seems to have been replaced by scrolling. A smoke break used to literally be taking a break from whatever it was you were doing. Now it looks like more of an opportunity to satisfy two addictions at the same time. It seems kind of depressing.
No, reporters didn't "scam" readers.

I'm sick of people trying to twist words to mean things they don't.

Scamming someone requires obtaining something like money in the process (fraudulently). SBF ran a scam because he took people's money and used it fraudulently.

Reporters just ran puff pieces. But they didn't defraud anybody. The reporters weren't investors in Alameda. They didn't obtain anything except the normal salary they get for any story.

So no, reporters did NOT "scam" readers. They just engaged in run-of-the-mill journalism. You can critique that all you want, but it still falls under the category of "journalism", NOT the category of "scam".
That might work for some but moving away from common infrastructure creates other problems. I found this video [0] a decent dive into issues and possible long term solutions. None quick or easy but I think are most likely to succeed in a lot of places.

Structure follows strategy. There are various reasons product manager exist but the role doesn't exist unless the team grows to a certain scale. All founders serve as a product manager some point in their start up journey because they need to know if the thing the built works. There are companies wanting to spend energy on building things that work and skipping a layer of communication is one way of doing it.

That's also how compiler speed up a program sometime, by inline expansion or by loop unrolling. It doesn't work all the time. But as an option.

Right now there seem to be an orthodox in product development

> Unless they are sitting on a new battery chemistry, which I doubt, they would need to develop a new one.

I am willing to bet that there is a new design that is “in the can”.

I am also willing bet that they will continue optimizing that design until the market dictates that it has to go to production.
Briar is nice, too bad they don't have a Linux app (only an Android app)... Also, it chews through battery in no time.
Not the sRGB used in monitors and simple color-pickers, no? Might be wrong here, but I'm fairly certain that day-to-day RGB that most programmers are familiar with is a direct representation of the brightness of the various colors of pixel in a given region (modulo green). The CIE-XYZ color space is the one which tries to represent human vision. RGB isn't crazy far off, but the R, G, and B values certainly don't map directly onto the activation of the L, M, and S cones. (0,255,0) is legal RGB, and displays a particular color, even though such a combination of activations is clearly impossible in the human eye. So given that RGB is a simpler, more tractable representation of a more complicated system...I'd call that an abstraction.
For an editor, maybe, for the files that you mount. But when e.g. a language server or IDE is involved, they need access to the tools that are now only inside the container. And then there's the shell itself, your shell history, etc.
I'm with you that we should consider clean air a human right. Personally, I find vehicular exhaust a much bigger problem than weed smoke though.
It's a curve. Try to model how many people would pay 50%-100% premium on a small car EV car when they the $25-$30k would be getting a bigger/better car, and compare with many people would be willing to pay the 20-30% premium of a Tesla (or a EV Mustang, or EV BMW, etc) vs the ICE equivalent.

Let me put another way: if the market for smaller EV cars were an actual profitable opportunity, don't you think that at least some of the car companies would be going after it?

I think the real reason is that developers are maybe some of the hardest to fool customers on the planet.

Since we literally build all of this our B.S. detection meter is really high.

Kite thought it can go after the up and coming new developers by doing slightly shady things.

However, developers also have an incredible allergy to such tactics and it forever taints your brand.

So overall, developers do pay for tools, just not useless ones with shady growth tactics.
