Rclone is another great example of open source being better than a commercial product. I'd rather use it than gsutil or s3cmd, it's simple, the commands make sense, and it doesn't bring in a lot of other cruft.
No, it's not "cancel culture". If you're not an expert in the area, you need to know how trustworthy the publication is. As it stands, there are indicators that it's not trustworthy.

[edit] Sure, the article might have some value. I can accept that. Thank you.
Here in Spain it definitely isn't.
The problem I fear is the needs of the few who are not technology minded, don't want their browser (or in their eyes their internet connection) to stop working because their ISP issued router uses a DNS based captive portal to onboard people (I've seen this used by atleast one major ISP in the UK to on-board devices onto their per-device content filtering system - BT, however I think they rolled back on that after it was caused issues with IOT devices).

However I believe (not read the docs in a while) FireFox works around this by falling back to DNS if an issue with DoH is detected.

EDIT: However I'm still on the fence if it should be a browser decision. Yes browsers move more quickly then OS & ISP changes and can make things better for the masses quickly, but i'm also wary of those changes screwing up the avg person, the people like my mother who can just about order things online via her ipad but thats about it, if she accidentally lowers the screen brightness of her ipad I soon get a call about it. Its for those kind of people I don't like the idea of a browser messing around with a connection in unknown network conditions.
So much to say on this subject but will try to keep this concise. This class of drug is absolutely a miracle cure but with some footnotes.

1. The problem it solves is obsessive appetite. I used to read about people saying things like "oh, I was working so hard, I forgot to eat" and I wondered how that was even a possible thing. This takes certain types of people from being constantly hungry to what appears to be "normally" hungry. If you are overweight because you are CONSTANTLY hungry, even right after you eat, this is the solution for you.

2. To everyone else, the people who just really like donuts or whatever, I am not sure what this will do for you. I don't mean it won't help, I just literally mean I have no idea, because my personal experience doesn't speak to this.

3. Intermittent fasting. Because it's impossible to talk about dieting without someone bringing this up. I think IF is wonderful, but, for people like me who have appetite issues, these drugs are helpful for following IF. But I would say the two are not related--they solve different problems.

4. I had zero side effects, but had to jump through an INSANE amount of hoops to get this stuff.
Heh. The first thing I do with a new ethernet cable is to break the clip, laptop side. It's orders of magnitude better to have an occasional disconnection than to trip with the cable and make the laptop fall from the table.

I did not invent this. I've seen legendary graybeards do it. I see it as a rite of maturity, like cyclists who discard the caps of their presta valves.
And to carry a few around at my pockets everywhere.
I've been seeing this redirect for literally years. It's not new.
The lottery that is based on non-existing concept like gambling where all the fees piped to one party? Not to mention you can’t use your brain while “playing” since calculating winning locations is illegal. Also it sound like you missing the whole point why all these hashes are discarded and what is being produced at the end of each cycle.
I quit Intel after working there for a decade. The open source work they did (still do in some cases) was great and I loved it.

I couldn’t stand supporting products that would come out “whenever” and would be marginally improved or not at all. 14nm++++++ was a joke. Our customers hated us so much. It was obvious in calls.

I got the feeling that Pat G cares, but I think fixing Intel is like changing the orbit of a planet.

That said, all my managers were awesome and the people were great. Sadly, having so much experience at Intel is almost a red flag on my resume.
I don't think those results are personalized which makes them worthless compared to twitter's suggestions.
How about you fire them if they don't perform and only hire people who perform well. Even with this incentive most CEOs don't perform well and many gut their companies to raise the stock price and leave.

Crypto has its own meanings and cryptocurrency also has some of those other meanings (not just the historical connection to encoding).

I especially like some of the biological metaphors:

That's not correct. Wasmer aims to be a fully sandboxed WebAssembly Runtime.

If anything fails, remember, I wish you a truly happy thanksgiving, and I hope you can finish this day better than you start it.
The book came out in 2019. The first WSJ story was 2015.

I don't think the media turned into a mob until after the book, as you said.
Wow, really? The CEO needs to be incentivized 399 times? Pretty sure anything more than 0 would work. Wow, just wow that someone can actually think and better yet write it out. Nobody needs a 399X incentive. That is just stupid.
> an international ponzi scheme involving politicians and journalists

We have no evidence any politicians or journalists were compromised. (Journalists at no-name outlets writing puff pieces is unfortunately banal.) That makes this a crypto story, and one whose victims are particularly unsympathetic at that. Those have a niche. But they aren’t mainstream.

CEOs getting insane pay doesn't exist in a vacuum. You can't use the "trickle down" economy as a proverbial carrot when people can't put gas in their car or heat their home while Bezos&co buy a new yacht every other day

Continue selling ports to China, continue selling sport clubs to Qatar, apartments to Emiratis, continue to delocalise industries to third world countries to save on labor, continue to force people into precarity, to force them into shittier and shittier jobs while asking them to work longer hours and retire at 67 for less and less quality of life. I'm telling you, at some point people won't have anything to lose and heads will start rolling

So funny! I just spent a few hours last night setting up rclone for the first time on my Macbook!

I've got one of those legacy Google Drive unlimited storage plans, and for years I've been using it to store all my code, video projects I work on, etc.

The way I normally use it is inefficient: if I was importing videos for a project, I'd use the Google Drive web UI to upload them into Drive, where I'd later organize them, etc.

Over the years I tried a variety of Goole Drive syncing tools, but all eventually stopped working, or were so unbearably slow that I couldn't justify it.

Last night I spent some time and set up rclone for Drive, along with a persistent mount so that Google Drive is always accessible via ~/Drive. So far it seems like everything is working well -- really amazing software! <3
After shipping several production applications in Elm over the last five years... I can confirm that the development experience is an absolute joy.

With a compiler this helpful, and sub-second builds-on-save - you get really tight feedback loops.

I can't say enough good of it.
I used to self-host VPN on different public clouds but most of the time got many captcha challenges (even banned, depends on websites/CDN) and I gave up, then switched to Mullvad the captcha challenges reduces a lot.
Sampling in hip hop is about taking 1 or 2 audio sources mapping them into some new audio, SD was trained on 2.3 billion data points. In a diffusion model you put noise on an input image, until its recognizeable. For a song this would mean, making it unrecognizable by making it literally sound like noise, and then try to denoise it, this process wouldn't be very helpful i assume, but might be a good experiment. Open AI's Jukebox uses an autoenconder method with autoregressive transformers, given this architecture, i would assume you can theoretically do stable diffusion architecture on audio, to generate new audio. https://openai.com/blog/jukebox/
I was shocked by how spammy Amazon.com's search results seemed compared to what I'm accustomed to from Amazon.de. I'm not a regular user of Amazon.com but have had occasion to do so since I'm visiting family in the US. Amazon.de is the "local" Amazon where I live.

Is this an affect of differing laws in the EU versus the USA? Differences in leadership of Amazon.com versus Amazon.de? Differences in perceived market expectations? Perhaps the average American consumer is expected to be more tolerant of this kind of thing? (I wonder because I compare the robo-call-infested hellscape that we've made of our telephone system compared to the rarity of such abuse where I live in Europe and wonder if we, in the US, are just more prone to behave in a way that produces tragedies of the commons.)

I miss that the comparison is made only on the base of growth, without mentioning the absolute size of the companies, or the volume of their sales.
Feels good to ask people what they're grateful for, taking a moment to think and be a little more introspective is nice.
I've not noticed a major difference in the UK from before Brexit. Some products would come from elsewhere in Europe but most would be local then too. London alone has several Amazon depots, so lots of things are same day delivery here.

Maybe it's down to competition - for lots of products I'd go elsewhere if they didn't offer at least next day delivery.
I had a friend who was 150-160 with a 315 max so is it really?

Others who are that weight can hit 350+

To be able to bench over 200 you have to have done at least some chest/press training

I believe CEX is Centralised EXchange as opposed to DEX the Decentralised equivalent. This is just my best guess based on what I’ve learned from following this scandal so could be wrong.
TLDR: FTX is not the only centralised exchange behaving in the manner being discussed (according to parent)

I absolutely cannot understand why any engineer would chose to stay at Twitter with the way things are.
The front bezel is clipped in, it's quite hard to detach, but can be carefully removed, and then the screen just sits behind with a eDP connector. Quite a contrast to an iPad.
I'd say for a big org the priority isn't "not fucking up", it's not objecting.

In a small growth org, despite severe rank differences, you're likely to have some impact on direction if you disagree. In a big org, there is no impact. You either are the wavemaker or those gleefully riding the waves. It doesn't matter how many "we listen to everybody's opinion" there are in these big orgs, wavemakers simply keep a lot of key information to themselves which puts everyone else within at a huge disadvantage. This also causes innovative thinkers to propose ideas less, because they got burned that one time when a wavemaker shut them down with previously hidden information.

Foam, I wouldn't really want to evaluate it for taste either....
No, what they are talking about is all Google properties (eg Google search) now being able to collect your location every time you use them, if you granted permission for maps to get your location.

So it’s now not possible to block location for search, and grant it to maps (at least using the standard browser domain permissions model).

As shown by this and countless of other articles, including comments here and places like Reddit; Amazon has gotten to Day 2 years ago on Jeff’s watch

Just to ensure that you don’t buy a fake product, it’s now normal to check if there are any 3rd parties using Amazon warehouses in the Other Sellers section
People blame Reddit, but it's not Reddit alone and this is extremely evident if you could see it for the demographics where nor Reddit nor English-based sites are the norm.

The main problem is the network effect (which Reddit did right) and what at 2010-2012 there was a massive change in the demographics of the new users on the Net: more and more people started to interact with it through the phones only. phpBB-like forums never had usable UI for the phones (though they are still a magnitude lighter and usable than modern Reddit, lol) and had one main problem: discoverability.

To Average Joe (who thinks Internet is that 'F' picture on the phone) the process of discovery (Internet search) and registration (e-mail based, captcha ridden) is way too much.

Add all other shortcoming listed in the other comments (notably the need to spend money, time and brain power on just maintaining the forum itself) and it's pretty evident why most of the forums died.

NB I still frequent one forum, site OP moved it to XenForo from phpBB years ago and did numerous modifications and integrations both for the old and new versions, which isn't available on Reddit at all.

Another forum is still running ikonboard, but it's userbase is... I'd say "not Discord/Reddit-compatible", which is also partly answers to your question: it is viable for some small (on Internet scale of things) community to thrive on a 'classic' forum software... but only if Discord/Reddit doesn't provide way less friction and/or discoverability.
Having been up since 3 AM with a child, I can say the cost-benefit fluctuates wildly.

Would love OP to indicate if they do not know the benefits and want to know, or if they know the benefits and want others to know as well.

I have a PhD in physics. I gave my assessment of the article in the first reply above. You're welcome to disagree, but since it seems you're mostly interested in rejecting the article on the basis of who published it instead of the content, perhaps this is a dead end.

Edit: appreciate the edit :)
Tax code is just a program written in the English programming language.

Like any other programming language, by definition, 50% of programmers are below average.

If 70% success is a "passing" C grade, that means you have a 7 in 10 chance of choosing a programmer of failing quality. In other words, your odds of picking someone at random is biased towards failure.

This holds true for almost anything where you are choosing a skilled worker at random, including tax preparers.

Unfortunately, most people do not have the knowledge or expertise to adequately interview tax preparers to increase their odds of picking one that is in that 30% passing grade side of the curve.

And, I think, many people in skilled trades get by or even rely on that fact in order to stay employed in their line of work.

And that's why I continue to do all of my own tax filing, because, for me as a programmer, the US tax code is nothing more than the source code for a program written in its own language which happens to be a special dialect of English.
Seems like you’re saying that one of the worst parts of being poor is living around other poor people.
Indeed so! Closer to tropics, such places abound though. "Excess" solar generation can go there.

Unlike in the north, where there's no excess.
I gave mosh a shot on a whim, and it's just magic. The only time I have to re-run it is when the client is powered down. Otherwise, I've had a rock solid remote terminal for months, surviving VPN and network finickyness.
I agree. The situation really shows how little the law protects the workers.

Avoid long running recursion in Node
It's easy to rationalize it as benefiting the users, so I'd imagine it's an explicit OKR, maybe even a few levels up in the org.

Like, one thing I've wanted on occasion is the ability to search for brick and mortar stores in a given radius who have the thing I want -- either because I want to physically inspect it before committing to a purchase or because for whatever reason the time/cost of shipping wouldn't be practical.

That sort of query is hard for Google to serve right now though for reasons including the lack of relevant location information in both the search results and the queries whose user behavior would help drive relevance rankings for those location-specific results.

Location information is a bit of a double-edged sword too though, even ignoring privacy concerns. I have to spoof my location and change my search language to get some results because of aggressive filtering happening behind the scenes. If a given query doesn't match Google's current understanding of the user then the right results existing in the corpus often won't imply that the user is able to find them with _any_ search operators.
I prefer libgen for free computer books :)
> What we really need is to limit food stamps (or SNAP, EBT, whatever name) to healthier options.

That'd be super fun for me, as a person with MS. I literally don't have the energy to cook a lot of the time, and am often only awake for 1-2 hours when I'm not at work, during which time I already have to shower, do chores, pay bills, etc.

Oh, and I'm hypotensive and on medication that often means I don't feel hungry. Junk food is great because it's so easy to eat even when you don't feel hungry. Eating healthy foods often results in me severely undereating calorie wise which causes more problems. Junk food is also easy to snack on at work because I don't get sit down breaks some days. A little salt every few hours keeps me from fainting.

And RIP anybody with any kind of dietary restrictions.

Side tangent, what about that revenue graph where Singapore is second. I can see China being number one just through size, but is every Singaporean buying ten PCs a year? Or is there some huge OEM based in Singapore that's just evaded my mind?
I tried to follow a number of prominent scientists, people doing programming language research, and various other technical topics to experience what you describe. Almost every single one of the people I followed devolved into commenting on politics and niche social issues more so than the technical topics I followed them for, so I gave up. There were only a handful of exceptions like one person that makes commentary about niche literature I enjoy. The format and culture of Twitter seem to inherently discourage thoughtful discussion and amplify politics, rage, and zingers/gotchas.

Show HN: Consumerizing Stable Diffusion
After generating our first image with Stable Diffusion, it was almost impossible to not drop everything we were doing and bust out a simple interface to consumerize the magic of this AI.

Upload your face, train a model, and make great prompts. The challenge we faced was scaling cloud GPUs for each user who trains a model while still keeping a profit margin. But we'd like to think we did it (to some degree), and would love for Hacker News and those that haven't already created a model to give it a go.

Will be a fun way to spend part of your Thanksgiving :)
Kia entered the 'western' market by basically selling the cheapest new cars you could buy. While this bought them much needed market share, it also gave them a reputation for being cheap, crappy and unreliable. While 'modern' Kia has moved beyond this, and as you say, the EV6 is been getting pretty great reviews, the memory of those days of cheap unreliable cars still linger.
It’s what the kids call click bait of the subspecies known as “trolling for controversy.” It comes in two flavors: “woke” and “anti-woke.” In all cases the goal is to get you to click so someone can sell ads.
Visas, in the short term at least.
If that "someone" was the Bible, yes. Apart from his occult work (which like most Western magic was done in a heretical Christian context) he published numerous works on Biblical literalism and prophecy. That Newton considered his work primarily an expression of his religious views isn't exactly a secret.

You made the mistake of reaching too far back in time, searching for an example of someone who should have been aghast at the premise of applying faith to science, and found someone for whom they were one and the same. Although he did reject a lot of the orthodox views of the church, he certainly didn't reject religion outright for its lack of verifiability.
