It's not about detection, it's about legality.

Bittorrent is legally clear-cut, because the sharing part is a clear copyright infringement (you are distributing the work without authorization).

Streaming (typically) isn't that clear, because consuming the work is technically not forbidden by copyright law in most countries. It's a bit like reading a book in a bookshop without buying it.

Detection is fairly easy in both cases, they just cannot go after consumers.
If you know most Linux file systems well, you would probably choose one in a few seconds. If nobody has ever asked you to pick a file system before, you could probably spend a couple of days researching.

I think there’s a lot of decisions like that to make in Arch

Legal gambling is a lesser evil. It would be better for society if gambling did not exist, but if we ban it, it will just happen anyway. Gambling is primarily legal to be able to regulate it. Illegal gambling is a major cash cow for organized crime. (Although organized crime has also been known to muscle in on legal gambling)
But even their shipping (with Prime too!) is getting slower and slower. Prime's selling point used to be free 2 day shipping. Shipping is still "free" but many items take 4 days (or more now).

I don't use Bluetooth. I even use my DualSense controller wired.

A true UNIX is hard to beat. I grew up with macOS and was devastated when my Mac broke & couldn't afford a new one. Been despising Windows for the past ~1.5 years. OpenBSD is nothing like macOS, but it is still UNIX.
Consumer reports and similar really doesn't and can't give you a good sense of long term reliability. Nissan and Kia have longstanding reputations for cheaping out on things that matter to reliability that no "predicted reliability score" should ever be able to counter. The word predicted is them admitting they have no idea yet.
Any potential integration with Latex ?
not sure exactly how that would work; it would be nice to either embed d2 code in a block and make the rendering part of the latex compilation. Similar to tikz.

I guess for now I can use d2 and then insert the generated svg but I would like sth closer to that holy grail of version-controlled documentation where you type and everything is magically done in one step and you store no data in the repo.
But isn’t that the whole point of Arch. It is advertised and promoted and therefore its well documented with a lot of support.

As a novice, if I am stuck somewhere the odds that I find the answer in the Arch Wiki or can ask an Arch enthusiasts and get an answer is orders of magnitude higher than the equivalent sources for Debian.
This passage:

> In his week of eating like poor people, he had missed two crucial ingredients: fear and shame. While he was looking forward to breaking his fast that night, poor people don’t get to do that. They don’t get to look forward to the end of impoverishment, to a good meal. My friend would eat a healthy meal that night, and he had known throughout the week that he could stop whenever he wanted, that all he had to do if he missed healthy food was open his refrigerator.

Reminded me of Common People by Pulp:

Rent a flat above a shop

Cut your hair and get a job

Smoke some fags and play some pool

Pretend you never went to school

But still you'll never get it right

'Cause when you're laid in bed at night

Watching roaches climb the wall

If you called your dad he could stop it all, yeah

The entire song has some of the best lyrics I've ever heard. It pictures life in England's left behind towns perfectly and also the disconnect you experience when you have a rare encounter with one the bourgeoisie. Fun fact: Jarvis Cocker supposedly wrote that song about the wife of Yannis Varoufakis, the left wing Greek finance minister who was in charge during the EU bailouts.
That’s not true though. They actually started using more durable writing materials. Parchment can survive much longer than papyrus which is why we have some many manuscripts surviving from the late dark ages.

IIRC if any ancient work was transcribed around 9-10th century there is a pretty decent chance it survived until today. The thing about ancient Roman/Greek texts is that they had to be continually copied every few generations or so. So 50-100 years of extreme social upheaval might be enough to lose a significant proportion of all literary works.
HN has always been quite anti-crypto, but I'd like to pose a counter argument. I run a remote services-based organisation in a related industry, and we switched to 100% crypto payments across the business.

It's massively simplified our processes, and improved UX. Our customer base is already crypto-native, which is what makes this possible.

Users pay us simply by sending funds to our wallet. Our entire payment processing engine is under 300 lines, including USD-denominated fees in crypto. Payments arrive instantly, with almost zero fees, from any country.

We have no chargebacks or (traditional) payment fraud.

Our remote staff are paid in crypto, arriving instantly with no cross-border issues.
Like Schwarzenegger.
The effect wouldn't be the same.

You’re probably right. As an industry IT seems to reinvent the wheel on a cyclical basis, and every time it seems we get a lower-resolution polygon (combined with a drop in performance due to the ever-growing number of abstractions).

No need to ban fossil fuel burning, just tax all pollution at the level required to clean up said pollution, then use that money to clean up the pollution.
Grateful to the founder for so openly sharing their story, including mistakes made and tough lessons learned.

There is plenty of survivor bias here, as other comments have already mentioned, but it is still useful to have such an open account into their story.
That's all fine, except in this case there are some extreme externalities unfortunately. We are all going to pay the price in the long term for this environmental waste. Sometimes regulations are required to protect a shared resource.
“Global leaders are pushing the World Bank and other international development banks to revamp their lending practices to help poorer nations address climate change and soaring debt burdens.”

It shouldn't be subsidized. That's the real problem.
I dont think this is the whole picture. It is generally true that selling products and making a profit is the goal for both.

Optimizing the best result for each query can result in a terrible result for the minority of shoppers for that query. More importantly, it can lead to a terrible result for the majority of shoppers across many queries.

The problem is other considerations that A/B testing metrics often leave out (Satisfaction in the long term, in searches that dont lead to sale, and across multiple changes)

That is to say, on average most shoppers might want cheap shit for a given search. but sometimes, they might want a different/better product and get frustrated.

If you over optimize for the typical use case, you might still lose the typically user because they not typical in every way and every day.
Happy user of git-bug for several years here, it’s a great tool, and the author is very receptive about bug fixes and adding new features.

Probably my favorite is the built in TUI interface, that feature rocks.

I don’t recommend it for larger projects where you have lots of committers, the in-built feature of GitHub/GitLab probably works better for those types of setups. Where I think this tool really shines, and the perfect use case for it is with the dozens (or in my case, hundreds) of little repos you have where A) either you are the only committer, or B) the project is small (for some definition of that term), or C) if you want something setup quickly to track issues/features/milestones, you can always switch to something else later.
Ad and junk… I recently ordered speakers and I got broken ones that looked like it was rescued from a bin / dumpster.
Mullvad UX is pretty sweet - I especially like how they don't force signups, and still let you open ports.

I wish there was a premium tier to let you pay for more bandwidth though, the fact that down speeds are capped at 300MBPS and up speeds much less made it not really usable for me
Its definitely not in my bookmarks. when i start typing, its under the section titled "top hits". google maps is right beneath it, but never first place
If the goal is to log in new users immediately after registration, is it possible to not leak whether a username is already registered?

If hn@example.com is not registered and I register it, I will be logged in (even if it does not belong to me).

If hn@example.com is already registered, the site can neither let me register it nor log me in.
The Computational Beauty of Nature (1998) by William Gary Flake
The net hashing that goes into mining increases the security of the network and is quite different from a lottery. The energy consumed produces a real energy barrier that makes it hard to produce a different variant of the next block. It is not a waste, but a sacrifice made to make the blockchain strongly immutable.
Yeah that's what I'm saying, if you're writing 50 shades of grey you can't claim to be Shakespeare. Both are putting letters on paper but they have virtually nothing in common.

The article is way too forgiving in its analysis, especially with these generalisations, if anything the generalisation works better the other way
average? Have you read this? [1] I think they do a lot more then other VPN providers!

To name a few:

- no logging (no hdd in their servers even!)

- pay with cash (via post)

- audit of their infra

It'll be sufficient for known malware. But if malware hasn't been identified yet, VirusTotal won't pick it up.

Is it possible that you can download malware and VirusTotal not pick it up? there's a small chance. But, in my estimation, no one is really going to burn a novel strain of malware on free ebooks. It's not targeted and that site isn't a good watering hole to deploy novel malware.

Novel strains of malware are usually reserved for specific targets. Unless you're a high profile target of an authoritarian government or known to have a high networth, I don't really think you're going to get hit with the novel stuff.

TL/DR: VirusTotal will probably be enough for the average user. But no one can guarantee safety when you're downloading random files on the internet.
Hint: this is a feature for people proposing this sort of thing. They want legislating to be pared down to where nothing is regulated, and the only crimes are property crimes.

Everyone else just likes stability, knowing that the law tomorrow will mostly be the same as the law today.

This is a plain lie. I'm buying most of my things with Bitcoin (using the lightning network).

Have you ever checked out Furnace Tracker? It's very similar (with compatibility for deflemask modules) but with expanded PSG support and a lot of fixes to accuracy.
Not like I always get two day shipping anyways. They now shuffle things between warehouses so they can say it shipped in two days (from the closest warehouse) but the effective shipping time can be longer.

I took that stance with my Tesla stocks when he ridiculed the person who saved boys from Thailand Cave. He put technology ahead of humans, something that I am not comfortable with.

My view has changed back and forth, his values being incompatible with mine, and his risk taking abilities which are sometimes good.
Your reasoning seems unsound.

It would [let us assume for the sake of argument] be better for society if proof of work systems did not exist. But if we ban it it will just happen anyway.

It would be better for society if murder did not exist but even though we banned it, murder just happens anyway.

An Introduction to Probability Theory and its Applications

By William Feller, written in 1968 but feels very fresh even today.
This amounts to demagoguery.

Because yes, it's a fact that in a "pure functional program" you need to re-engineer half of the program if you need to put the log somewhere where it's "oh so pure", and where you didn't need logging before [1]. Or thread IO through the entire program to begin with.

> Sometimes a couple of 100 lines need to be rewritten - that is the max that I ever had to do.

Where in a pragmatical language you just add `Logger.log` or equivalent

[1] Spare me the pontification of "if you need logging, you're doing something wrong, this must be covered by tests or type systems". There are things you must log like metrics, audit logging, tracing values through the system, and it is a 100% certainty that you will add logs to places where no logging existed before.
Who decides what is useful? There's gotta be millions of people playing video games on their 600W RTX builds - how about we ban it as they're obviously not producing anything useful?
Geohot had this weird mystique that was pretty appealing when it looked like he was building really interesting things better than (or as good as) large corporations. He should have stayed put because now he looks very average. Makes me feel better about myself but I really did think this guy was special.
Similarly, if the parcel service marks it as "attempted delivery not home" (even though I or someone else was home all day) and drops it of at a pickup on the other side of town (even though they have a branch around the corner) I can just order it again and count on amazon to refund the first order (and perhaps demand the delivery service be less shit). For a smaller seller a) I probably need to contact them to get a refund at all, b) more than likely they want me to eat the delivery fee for sending it again and c) even if they cover it they don't have any leverage with the delivery service to be less shit.

We also desperately need people like that as legislators.

HN definitely has a range of ideological bents, and in my experience you'll run into a huge variety of ideologies. But among them all, pro-worker anti-capitalist is pretty rare.

Feral Hogs on Your Texas Ranch? Don't Rent a Helicopter, Buy a Wallaby EV UTV
The main benefit of Arch Linux to me is that when you do a drive-by patch to some software project, it is not unthinkable that the fix reaches you through upstream and an Arch package update in a matter of hours. This flow is not possible with distributions that run pretty out of date software and have long release cycles: the version that's included with the distribution is usually too old to be able to check out the source, test and directly apply fixes to the upstream repository, and getting those fixes back would take months. This also applies to security updates, as it's easier to rely on instant upstream project updates than on some distribution package owner to remember and backport those fixes.
none of those details justify egregious waste of power
Totally agree with this, actually.
William Shatner (!) covered that song well IMO: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ainyK6fXku0

'cause everybody hates a tourist
The only pro of amazon is that you can contact them months after the purchase and still get a free replacement/refund. With aliexpress I doubt they'd refund you even if you received a bag of dirt instead of your product
All of this can be achieved through a person VPN rather than a commercial subscription one by ssh -D whateverPort user@ip_address and setting up a SOCKS proxy in Firefox on that same port.

>there are often posts which criticize the use of a VPN

Often they specifically critique the likes of NordVPN etc. The off the shelf solutions rather than personally setup VPNs. What disgusts me is that they charge fees that are multiples of what it costs to run a basic Linode or DO Droplet for a month and a virtual machine is far more useful than a commercial VPN.
> all Proof of Work does is to calculate trillions of hashes

There's more to mining than hashing [1]. My Cuckoo Cycle Proof-of-Work scheme for example searches random graphs for fixed length cycles.

It would be more correct to say
all the Hashcash Proof-of-Work does is calculating hashes.

$8 billion in government subsidies? That critical DOE loan, for example, wasn’t even available to anyone else.

We democratically voted for governments that made those rules to be followed by people doing business here.

Not sure how that is supposed to be undemocratic.
Oh I agree. The Twitter fiasco is just the final nail in the coffin after cringing at his antics and generally being disgusted with him for some time now.
This is slightly embarrassing to admit but when I went on my honeymoon I brought my iPad along so that I wouldn’t code. Still, we had enough relaxation time that at some point I just set up a $5 digital ocean machine in Europe and I was able to code just fine with a cool eMacs split screen setup and an external iPad keyboard.
Health and the ability to not have burnt out
Why do you think is designed this way? Some think that proof of work is essential in order to have a monetary system that it’s really hard to corrupt hence essential for them. Search for thermodynamically sound money. I’m sure proponents would be open to alternative designs if desired properties are retained.
I already use family sharing. But family sharing "locks" the library of the person you are borrowing from.
On top of that, if you happen to have two copies of the game (1 for me, 1 for wife), there will still be no option to choose which library to lock, ending up with potentially the library the child want to use, already locked.

I appreciate family sharing, but it has some limitations that aren't amazing.

GOG is just "you are playing that one game". Way easier.
I don't think it has to scale though, maybe it can but it might just perpetuate poor conditions for care workers

I think it could be as simple as a few standardised processes and contracts. If a village wants to try it they follow the steps and set it up themselves
It is exactly the explicit job of the government to say exactly such things. That's who.

Not because they are god, because they are how society codifies what it wants and sets policies to achieve it.

Cryptocurrency isn't even banned, only proof of work.

It's a completely valid thing for a government to set a policy about.

Especially now that the experiment has been allowed to run without meddling for many years, and the results are well and truly in.

There might be an argument about invalid interference on day one, but not now.
In Switzerland everything is expensive, but it is still worth it even at 60 francs.

The poster has a point, though, in that after the sale the vibe changed. The connected hotel used to be reasonably priced for their smaller cabins/rooms to stay the night after a soak in the Therme. Now the entire Hotel is focused on Chinese/middle-eastern wealth clients. They even have (or at least used to last time I checked ~2019) free helicopter pickup within Switzerland if you stay there (as if heli traffic in the valleys wasn't annoying enough already).

I used to go there after hiking in the mountains for a couple of days, and it was a fantastic cap to a short excursion into nature, spent without showers in mountain huts. It's just not possible anymore - and apparently not desired by the new owner.
I'm looking into it, a Polish user is having the same problems. Don't hesitate to sign up so I can let you know when it's fixed :)

Köszönöm a hozzászólásodat, ez segít nekem! :)
Because then someone would have to hold China to account, and too many US politicians are in China's pocket.
I’m going to produce a new currency which will be backed by blasting CFCs into the atmosphere. 1 ozone coin is awarded per hour, based on a lottery where you get tickets depending on how much CFC you managed to blast.

If people are willing to trade this, it must be valuable and also thus must be worth more than the environmental damage being caused.
I would also welcome a global carbon tax levied at the source (on raw fossil fuel) as it would solve a lot of issues but it's just not gonna happen for political reasons.

Given that the global carbon tax is unlikely to happen, we might has well take action against proof of work now since it would still be a net benefit for mankind.
I can only get "200 internal server error" entries in the dev console :)
The article is not wrong.

I find myself “shopping” by looking at my previous orders and selecting things that I liked before.

Amazon Prime is now more of a $10/month source of streaming entertainment content.

It does feel good to buy direct from manufacturers but I do a price comparison with Amazon first.
It's in the context of a thread where Elon is being demonstrably cruel. Read the op for examples.
You very conveniently ignore the cost to society that is caused by the extra pollution. That is an externality that is paid by society and not Bitcoin miners, and thus society has a say about whether miners are allowed to run on fossil fuel in a particular state or not. As it turns out, a lot of things are profitable if you ignore societal costs.
There are times i still use amazon and i actually bought a few items on Tuesday.

Amazon's delivery date is friday? Want to guess where amazon's distribution warehouse is? A few blocks away from me.

The point you are attempting to make is unclear. If the distribution hub is within walking distance from me, why does it take days to ship?
