It would be very ironic if unbanning Trump caused an infra issue that broke the site.
The same thing that would be bad about using your phone GPS location sensors to automatically send you speeding tickets every time you wander >1mph over the limit.

Even without intending to, everyone would go from a ticket or two per decade to dozens of tickets on every commute.

"But the law is still the same!?!"

Of course it is, but changing from poorly scalable human-required surveillance to always-on, fully-scaled electronic surveillance, changes it from completely reasonable to massively oppressive.

If everyone's productivity is fine, and people take unauthorized breaks, no one will notice, all is cool. If one or two people are noticeably unproductive, the manager will likely investigate and fix the unauthorized breaks, which is also fine.

But with constant electronic surveillance, it's no longer about meaningful productivity differences, it is about oppression.
I work on a project now, very large scale where the architecture and requirements do not lend themselves to a cloud architecture yet that is exact ly what the powers that be have declared we'll do. You get the impression they don't want to feel left out more than anyone familiar with the project thinking this is a good idea. Never-ending that the Financials don't add up at scale.
At the risk of gushing a bit about Emacs, I'm going to share just a few things that I have gotten out of Emacs that I don't believe I have gotten out of Vim or VS Code.

A minor thing, that perhaps betrays my lack of commitment to really devoting myself to Vim, but I find the keyboard macros in Emacs clicked for me, far more than the equivalent functionality in Vim. I've read arguments that the Vim functionality can actually be superior because it can be applied after the fact, but Emacs keyboard macros are what clicked for me.

And given easy keyboard macros, that can cross buffers (and therefore even embedded shell invocations) you can construct your own text based workflows that are more flexible and streamlined than anything you are going to find in another editor or IDE environment. And that is without even having to deal with Emacs Lisp.

I find the Emacs keyboard macros also get supercharged when you combine them with Evil (Vim emulation) mode. That ability to record and play back complicated multi-state evil commands is awesome.

I also credit Emacs for exposing my son to his first experience with hacking / looking at source code. I showed him the Adventure game (yes, Emacs ships with an embedded text adventure game). And then I showed him how to find the data structure that describes the maze in the game, and he used that graph to figure out how to navigate through the maze.

I could go on, but that's probably enough random thoughts for now.
Hyundai/Kia seems to be doing a great job with their electric cars, in terms of design, fast charging, etc.

But it appears they are only selling them in a few states, and in pretty small quantities. With dealer markup problems in some cases.

The Genesis version is the most appealing to me. I'd strongly consider buying it... except they are not offered where I live, in the middle of the country.

If they can increase quantities, it would be great to reach where Tesla has been for years: fill in a form on your phone anywhere in the US (and various other countries) and pick one up for the published price in after a (sometimes short, sometimes not so short) delay.
Even in war, we don't universally take "I was following orders" as a valid excuse. People writing surveillance software are not innocent - not as guilty as those that gave the order, but still guilty.
> There may be consequences to quitting, perhaps disproportionately felt between you and the company

This is why unions are so important, even in a field like software engineering. If you quit on your own, the company may not care. But using the threat of strikes, workers can demand better conditions for themselves and more ethical directions for their company.
I’m actually the opposite but thought I’d reply to your comment since they’re opposing ends of needs.

I have a Spark EV that did 130 miles new, now ~100 highway miles after 6 years.

The warranty on the battery lasts another two years and they don’t make that battery anymore anyway. Replacement car would be a $27K Chevy Bolt, which is much longer range and way more expensive than I need.

I’d love to see a standard battery back that was around 100 miles range that cars would use 1-4 of them to achieve whatever range is desired.

Not to mention a standard form factor that would be available for 2-3 decades to prevent a car like my Spark EV with just 50K km from becoming landfill in a few years.
address my issues with the platform

What are your issues? What could Substack be doing better for fiction writers?
It's the internet, if you breathe, someone somewhere will find that offensive.

That being said, inevitably someone will start with a question of, "Why do you NEED 1500 miles of range?", point out that most people commute less then that and state that you can rent an ICE for when you need it, and proclaim that's all you really need.

Edit: And there you go, someone's already chimed in with the question.

Taking the other side - you’d rather live in the society we have today where policies/laws are selectively enforced based on whether cops/supervisors have a good relationship with you, are biased re your race/gender, etc?
Artemis I – Testing WiFi Signals, Radiator System, Go for Outbound Powered Flyby
Funny you mention weather because I have worked in the field. We had to make a change in the discretization scheme, and pretty much all of the assumptions of the super optimized parallelized production version had to be thrown away, to the point that we had to abandon it completely.

Software engineering needs well defined boundaries to design between them and test edge cases. When we are doing fundamental research we don’t have this. Literally anything can change in the logic, the inputs, the outputs.
Yes, I tried to be cautious in my assumptions, but I suspect the colors in the photos to be substantially different from what they originally were. I’d be curious if the original colors could be reconstructed by analyzing the dyes, but of course with 800 pages (I don’t know how many color patches) that could be a lot of work.
Probably Musk’s way of running Twitter will need to stabilize to a reasonably predictable long-term state, before it is feasible to spin up the council idea - if he even still wants to do the council idea.
RIP Truth Social’s investors, being Trump’s personal Twitter clone was the one thing keeping them afloat.
>the Duran podcast, which is a good source of geopolitics from a realist perspective

The Duran is a heavily pro-Kremlin source:

>Founded in 2016, The Duran is a strongly right-leaning news and opinion website with ties to Russian state media. Based in Cyprus, the website’s editor is Alexander Mercouris, who in 2012 was disbarred as an attorney in London. According to the Telegraph, he then went on to become a “pro-Russian commentator on world affairs for Russian TV news outlets and websites.”

>In review, The Duran publishes news and opinions with a conservative and pro-Russian perspective

Nice. Hold on a sec while I uninstall all the random apps I have left over on my phone...
> If you use an address under someone elses domain, they can.

I suppose that's true. Google can ban a gmail account that is inappropriate on a Google Groups list, or a university can ban a student's account that represents the university inappropriately. Those are narrow cases, though. It's not in the same ball park as a mod deciding to ban someone. An instance for just the account seems the best option, but I don't know the devs' intentions.
oh tell us more details on that story :-)
Did you use regex?
Here are the results for various EVs in a real world highway range test:

- https://insideevs.com/reviews/443791/ev-range-test-results/

- Updated with the Hummer EV: https://insideevs.com/reviews/612030/hummer-ev-range-test/

The Lucid Air meets and the Mercedes EQS very nearly meets your 400 mile benchmark. The BMW iX xDrive50 did 345 miles, so a 600 mile trip could be done with only one charging stop with enough buffer to find a charger.

Due to the nature of EV charge curves it can be faster to stop multiple times and charge from a low state of charge to a maximum of 80%. The remaining 20% will charge slower to protect the battery pack.

The ideal would be a battery pack capable of a high and flat charge curve. A 100 kWh pack that could sustain 500 kW for the whole curve would charge 0-100% in 12 minutes. Still not as fast as fueling, but 12 minutes for a full charge would be very practical.
An analysis of the new World Cup ball
You might be confusing IPFS with something else, like Freenet.

As far as I know, there's no such statistical anonymity in it.
No. But in theory you could implement a wrapper, sure. But do yourself a favor, and just rewrite your application with a modern framework.
>A lot of time it would end up being DNS

Ah, good old "it's always DNS"!
How could they tell who exactly triggered the system? Also, they didn't already have security cameras?
You can use it to configure the build mode: `build/bootstrap/make.com -j8 MODE=rel o/rel/blink/blink`; no MODE will build a default config. This is used across all cosmopolitan projects; for example, this is for redbean: https://redbean.dev/#source.
It's a fascinating project and a real shame funding was cut off. The deep borehole in Mexico was also stopped due to lack of funding.

Maybe they can use global warming dollars to renew these deep borehole projects around the world, as I suspect there is new geological science to be discovered as observations appear to deviate from theory:

"Because of higher-than-expected temperatures at this depth and location, 180 °C (356 °F) instead of the expected 100 °C (212 °F), drilling deeper was deemed unfeasible. The unexpected decrease in density, the greater porosity, and the unexpectedly high temperatures caused the rock to behave somewhat like a plastic, making drilling nearly impossible"
Yes, and in the case of technology, it is REALLY EASY to simply sell no technology to any authoritarian regime, for any purpose.

There are dozens of academic and GNOs that track democracy, e.g., [0]. Just select a reasonable cutoff of some level of democracy, and don't sell to anyplace below that.

That does require management and sales to have ethics. Some do.

Yeah, it's kind of amazing that the Ionic 5 and 6 are using completely different design languages - and both look really nice.
I wish that such benchmarks included bad old std::map, too, so that I could beat my stubborn coworker with them until he finally started using hash maps by default.
I think that's just what happens if you read memory that hasn't been zeroed on the gpu. There's no out of bounds checks or anything on GPU memory. (probably/hopefully there is on the web)

I've seen many bits of cahced browser viewport textures when writing shaders and making mistakes. I've been wanting to create something procedurally from it somehow ever since I encountered it.
> People get triggered when I say this but I’m holding out for something over 400 miles in range.

I have almost the opposite desire! I want something that is maybe 100-200km range at a much lower price point. If I could buy something like an electric Mazda 3 with that sort of range at anything like the price point of the ICE version I'd buy one tomorrow. It would suffice for 99% of my driven distance, easily.

I think this car will sell for over $70k here in Australia, from a quick websearch. This pushes it straight into luxury car [tax] territory; I am not a car person & have no interest in dropping that much on a car.
yup, which is different from the claim that was made. TFA incidentally also was caused because of 32 bit software running on a 64 bit linux system.
This is pretty cool. I'm personally not into TUI's for everything, but I totally get their appeal.

Does anyone know of a rss reader that presents multiple feeds in columns like tweetdeck by chance? I dream of a dashboard of rss feeds.
I'm glad to not have my tax dollars subsidizing import car sales personally, so fine by me to limit that EV tax credit to domestic vehicles.

However, I would have preferred the fed not bailout big auto (or banks, or what's the latest socialized losses situation... Intel?). Either let it burn down when they fail or nationalize them and where's our national dividend?
Here's using "triggered" to mean "respond emotionally" rather than "offended."
Where’s the pun?
> We don't yet allow pinning on a per-package basis within nixpkgs, but we're working on that.

Where can I view that work? That's a feature the whole Nix ecosystem could benefit from. Is there an RFC for Nixpkgs to change the policy on versioning, or is this an effort to rig up some kind of frontend for an index that lets you pull package recipes from different versions of Nixpkgs?
It looks like this was decided via an online poll. Has he abandoned the idea of a "content moderation council" or is he just reserving it for unimportant decisions?
I used to work at vrc. My feelings about the app rapidly swung between euphoric highs when I would hear about this (bringing back some of the old internet spirit was a particular fixation of mine as a geocities/irc kid) mixed with terrible lows when stories about something like grooming would come out.

Awesome to see this written out!
I once had the task of measuring powdered dye for industrial soap. A coworker told me to make sure and tamp down the can. Turns out tamping the can kicks up just enough dust that I had blue snot for a week. Not an OSHA approved practical joke, but funny nonetheless.
And for Twitter. Free speech deniers leave and Twitter becomes more open and divers. I like it.
Python on wasm is still very much a work-in-progress. But even if it weren't, wasm wheels are only compatible with wasm Python, which is not what most users of your library out there are going to have.
This was very obviously Musk’s plan from the start. Everyone who spent 2 seconds thinking about it knew it. It gives Musk enormous power over US politics and greatly increases the overall user engagement on the platform. Win-win for him. The whole political spectrum in the US cannot and will not stop clicking on everything Trump.
I'm not sure I understand- if I am not in a CRM then a sales person cannot call/mail me? Or is this some kind of facebook-like thing where you can infer I exist if you also have my colleagues details ?
Those drop too quickly, the air separates near the top. It doesn't buy you anything. Compare to the first Honda Insight; that's about as perfectly aero as a practical car can be.

But I don't see that being a priority. They're selling well as-is.
Such places don't exist outside of the fever dreams of libertarians and minarchists. Governments have an interest in maintaining order and civil society even in public spaces, and the rule of law always applies.

Well, there is: It's Nix's buildPythonApplication.

Trying to use Python in Nix is frequently a bother, but at least once it works, it works.
Wow, reading some of these comments ... I feel blessed to be in such company.
I've created and promoted the largest channel on the QuakeNet IRC network.

It’s funny that this line is considered famous as a borderline mistranslation… it shows that English got it relatively easy.

I remember playing FFVII in Spanish as a kid, and I cried with laughter at times.

- people talked to Barret using female pronouns half the time.

- Barret constantly mentioned he was cold (in the English version he used “cool” as an expression and it was translated literally).

- NPCs talked about savepoints as if they were a person called Point Saving.

- characters were constantly celebrating things (party was translated as celebration rather than as “your group of people”).

- the mayor of a city was called the City’s largest. (Bad translation from “major” I guess).
It’s an interesting hypothesis.

I still think Elon never meant to buy Twitter. He was just swinging it around and smacked into Delaware Chancery Court.
Isn’t “Al” the Arabic definite article? The article keeps referring to it as “The Al Rihla”, i.e. “the the Rihla”.
Ask HN: Any nonprofits looking for open source engineering volunteers?
Inspired by the recent post about Open Library (Internet Archive). Sometimes when someone wants to get involved in open source, they are pointed at libraries or tools on Github. But for some people they find more value in contributing to a nonprofit they believe in. Want to share any you volunteer with or know about?

I can start -- Lichess.org is one of the largest chess websites out there, and it is a nonprofit powered by open source software. Anyone interested in Scala can surely find some issues they are interested in.
Really, now?? You say the problem is we don't know how to drill that deep? Does it not occur to you that whatever you put down your hole will have the same problem?

And how do you plan to keep your hole open? Rock flows at that depth.
I built an email archive for Novell GroupWise that went on to sell into the millions :-)
Yeah, I don't think I disagree there. If you want to automatically delegate methods, you can always use a type alias, and if you want to have delegation but type strictness (i.e. not having the alias and the original being interchangeable), you can do it manually. I think the two things here that I personally don't prefer are not having some way to opt into delegation (e.g. the `Deref`/`DerefMut` traits in Rust) and the more general paradigm of interfaces being implicit (which if I understand correctly is why it would be ambiguous about whether the wrapper types implemented the same interfaces as the wrapped type), but those are much larger philosophical differences. If you do want interfaces and wrapper types to work the way they do in Go, I agree that having a method for length would probably be less consistent with the design philosophy.

I do feel like the FAQ could be a bit more explicit about the rationale though; most people who read that page and have that question aren't going to as experienced in Go, so they aren't as likely to read "interfaces on basic types" and go "aha, yes, that would be weird with wrapper types!". That said, I also don't really use Go at all due to the philosophical differences I mentioned above, so maybe my reading isn't going to be representative of their target audience anyhow.

Elon: "Mr. Trump, I reinstated you on twitter and you won because of all the free media expose you get from it. Now please award me multibillion dollar contracts for Space X, my solar company, my satellite company, and Tesla."

Trump: "OK"

And now you know the real reason for why Musk purchased twitter. To get those fine juicy government contract when Trump becomes king."
Maybe we should rather use rowhammers and spectres to gain information about parallel universes. ;)
I’m curious what others think: will this have a positive, negative, or inconsequential effect on employee retention?

I have a feeling most employees will be thinking, “oh here we go again…”
Post-2008 I think a big issue is down payments. Yes with 1% interest and 25 years you can turn a massive principal into reasonable payments, but how do you come up with 5% of it to get started?

It's hard to save tens of thousands of dollars unless you're lucky in your career or have a second earner dedicated just to that (and no school loans or other debt to service). Other than that you're waiting for a windfall or reliant on your parents re-mortgaging their place to give you your down payment.

I got lucky with my company's series A. But I know a lot of people whose parents helped them. And a bunch more whose parents can't— those people are still renting in their late thirties, waiting for a bus that may never come.
They don't ban those pedestrian-killing tall trucks. I'm not sure checking people's brakes is saving many lives.

He doesn't need many. All the news sources will hang on everyone of his tweets and amplify every single one.
But to blow up more than one pipeline by this accident at the same time would be an unlikely coincidence. My point is that everybody knew it was sabotage from the outset, and this Swedish team was supposed to be trying to figure out who did it. If in the end they have nothing to report but the obvious, what good did they do? It seems like their investigation was compromised and any evidence buried.
Or 1/100. Crazy. But as said not sure I aware qemu is so small. Thanks.
Teaching: you can still comment and edit. And your edit in the PR is reviewable by the author.

Wind would need to guarantee dispatchability on demand to fix a price. Offering low prices when it can is not the same as reliable on-demand sources.

I won't cut parts for beehive frames again. What a pain using 2x4s, and slightly dangerous with such small pieces.
perhaps mkoubba meant “closer to the metal” than the average programming language, like, say Swift or even C#, not “closer to the metal” than C++. Otherwise it the comment makes little sense, as I would not even consider Rust “closer to the metal” than C++. Maybe C or x86 Assembly?
They might be right.
That doesn't really clear up my confusion here at all. If anything, it's even more of an argument not to refer to the continent geographically as "EU" instead of "Europe" in modern times, and certainly doesn't make it more obvious why it be referred to that way when talking about the 1910s.
It comes down to cost, and what costs society's are currently and consistently willing to bear. Would ADA laws have so much force if FDR were able bodied?
I've worked at companies you know that 100% fall into both categories. It's all a matter of corporate culture, and there's no rule that corporate culture has to be a certain way (even just for successful companies).

If it's a big company though, accept the corporate culture is always going to be how it is.

If it's not to ones liking, it's easier to find a different employer.
Elon would have restored Trump's account regardless of the results of the poll.
Wrong. Storage has opex, because it has energy losses. Not all the energy that goes in can come out. 2nd Law and all that. On top of that, there will be maintenance and operating staff costs.
Yea, computational geometry library. What’s unfortunate is that it’s basically the only quality implementation for some pretty niche algorithms.
