The Twitter Files are much less earth-shattering than what Elon implied with the response we are talking about. That is, the planned, deliberate muzzling of political figures _for their political views_, ordered by other political figures or in-power government figures.

I have no doubt Part 3 will be forthcoming, and if it unequivocally points to that, I will sit up and take note.

That said, all of this drama is for something that is now dead. That is, Twitter is dead as a platform for political discourse. Even given the previous Twitter administration's apparent overmoderation of rightwing voices, it was still the loudhailer for what was almost an overthrow of the US government. For better or for worse, those shackles have been removed. November 2023 and on may see a replay, and the loudhailer has no filter anymore.

Didn't realise at first that some of the demos were interactive, e.g. the cloth can be pushed around with the mouse. Impressive!
I've merged the threads into the current one. It's later, but it's still on the front page.
You were pretty clear. I just completely misread. :)
Worker ownership is not the same thing as wage labor. Wage labor bifurcates people into an asset owning class and laborers who don't own the assets they're forced to depend on to eat. Wage labor divorces workers from owning the fruit of their labor in place of wages, whereas worker ownership doesn't.

Wage labor was imposed upon people hundreds of years ago with the enclosure and privatization of common lands that people had relied on for centuries to provide for themselves. It was imposed because people voluntarily chose not to become wage laborers, as they preferred their lifestyles as is. To rectify this, a landless class of people was created, that could only rely on selling their labor to survive, through the enclosure of the land they had relied on in the past. People did not freely accept becoming factory workers, for example, they were forced into situations where it was the only option, and in many places, those that chose not to work were arrested and forced to work anyway.
People don't believe me when I tell them Amiga ended up in the worst possible hands.

This is something to point them to.
How would you enforce per-driver speed limits? As it stands, car insurance sort-of does this: German policies usually reserve the right to refuse payment if you’re at fault and were going more than 130.

How could this be managed for all the non-German vehicles that pass through? How invasive would this be?

As a sibling comment said, the difference in speed is what makes for the danger, and the driver who stays well under 130 because he feels that’s safer for him and everyone around might be less-prepared to deal with you popping up at 200 as he’s trying to pass a truck lumbering along at 80.
There lies the problem: in todays society, I’m not free to choose how I live outside of a pre-approved selection of careers due to a small portion of people deciding they wanted this specific setup.
They won’t steal it but they will float it to their networks for validation and if any of them are looking to pick something up and run with it, now they’ve got the same idea from a known-quantity team.

It absolutely happens.
Fatalities should be measured in terms of miles travelled. Not per mile of highway, or per number of cars, or per capita. Someone who drives five days a week, 60 miles per day is going to have a higher risk of getting into an accident that someone who drives only on weekends, 30 miles per day. This does have any bearing on how safe the roads are.
You're missing an important distinction that I may not have made clear: a lot of activities that can be harmful to children can also be valuable. There's a lot of harmless fun on television, walking alone to the park or a neighbor's house fosters a healthy sense of independence, weight training done safely can help build strength and confidence and sugary caffeinated sodas in moderation are… tasty? (Not sure about the benefit on that last one.)

Like these activities, social media can have their benefits even for young people: contact with friends and family far away, connection with others with similar interests, and a broader view of the world, among others. With guidance, kids can experience those benefits without too much of the harm.

In most of the cases you point out — drinking, driving, buying firearms, and sharing pornographic pictures of themselves — any good there may be is vastly outweighed by the dangers. I don't believe the harm so disproportionate with social media, but I suppose others might disagree.
That's pretty easy to catch in code review, or to set up lint rules for.
They could do water cooling underneath. Probably not worth it though.
I understand and partly agree with your sentiment, but "offsetting" technologies/components are all over the place. E.g. combustion engines also need mufflers, catalytic converters, etc.
If a source behind an IP4.4 router sent a packet to an IP4 destination, then yes, the source router would need to apply NAT to the source address. But this is already a standard IP4 router capability, and I think that most connection origins on the internet are already behind a NAT.

I don't agree that it wouldn't have been easier to migrate. No changes would have been needed within retail ISPs for starters. Source code changes to existing IP4 stacks would have been minimal, without requiring a whole new stack like IP6. Practical migration requires only that the source and destination networks be IP4.4 aware.

The idea might make less and less sense over time, but if we'd done this 20 years ago we would have reliably had all the address space we needed 10 years ago, no further transition necessary. So much money spent on IP6 could have been saved, not to mention the opportunity cost of IP4 space being hard to get in recent years.
I tried this as well. I’m working at Meta and I think this is 10x faster than our implementations
That's how it looks with the benefit of hindsight.

In 2007, there were plenty of people who thought the iPhone wasn't charting a brand new course across undiscovered seas. They thought it was an expensive, overly engineered toy. They thought the smartphone market of Blackberry and Windows Mobile devices was already mature.
I think you're skipping some steps there.
Three demerits and you will receive a citation. 5 citations, and you're looking at a violation. 4 of those and you'll receive a verbal warning.

Only if you keep that up, you're looking at a written warning.
I agree, and if we had decided to create an autonomous car only line where the speed gets controlled by a central computer, this would apply.
You still shouldn't ignore that the higher the speed, the more likely larger speed differences can appear. At some point external force will slow down cars significantly faster than the brake of the vehicle behind.

And a complication that is bad practice because a malicious party can detect the blind handoff to shell and serve malware.
e.g.
wget file.sh ; vi file.sh
and you get safe code
curl file.sh | bash
and you get malware.

This attack requires a malicious server, but it’s still bad practice.
One technique is to dock some of your fingers against known reference points such as the corner of the screen, then you can stabilize the finger pressing the button and rely partially on muscle memory to locate the target button.
I just find it interesting, the difference different perspectives can make, especially on a website where people are often bikeshedding things they have no experience with.
The Tesla semi design is the exact opposite of the iPhone's keyboard removal. It's larger but still less useful and flexible because its use of space is so inefficient.

The smartphone's lack of a physical keyboard is a tradeoff that works well for most users who tend to consume a lot of media content and rarely write long texts on it. According to that truck driver the Tesla semi is not a tradeoff but a downgrade without any upsides.
> which part of the fatalities happened > 130kmph?

Usually (not always) you realize that something bad is going to happen so you are going to brake. Let's assume there is an obstacle in front of you that is 150m away. After a reaction time of 1 second, and with continuous braking over 100m you are able to get from 180kmh to 100kmh at time of impact, but if you had started from the generally suggested 130kmh, you would have stopped 40m before the target (assuming -8.83m/s^2 braking acceleration).
If I remember right, the team that made the Amiga was the Atari 400/800 team and the team that made the Atari ST was the Commodore 64/128 team.
Presumably the poster would have posted about the overall platform instead of the processor, if that was what they found interesting and wanted to discuss.
I drove through Germany few times. While there were mostly no speed limits on Autobahns, the were a lot of “repairs” when halve of the road was closed and another was converted into 2-way road with a speed limit of 60-70 km/hour and very narrow lines. And then such section can last for 10-20 kilometers with zero activity besides couple of spots. I have never experienced such way to do repairs in Denmark, France, Italy or Spain.
I can't wait for a future were we could (hopefully) artificially grow meat in a lab so the meat available that didn't come from a dead animal is closer to the real thing. In an affordable and sustainable fashion at least. Maybe I'm being too optimistic and hopeful on this one.
I think there are different groups of people for each one of those cases and lumping them all together as programmers is a bit of a generalization. I get your sentiment that the cases conflict, but I don't think it's the same person each time holding that view.

I could see people who are against major corporations being for paying inde groups a premium for less than perfect service, just as people who are against Microsoft and Apple will tolerate less than ideal user conditions in Linux.
I have no problem with political discussion, as long as it’s informed. Regurgitating nonsense from memes or lobbyist talking points is not that.
That's one reason why co-operatives are interesting, same as unions, they change the balance of power to favor the oppressed by capital, relative to their size.
Heh, yeah.

That's awesome! Good on you both.
This isn't for OTR though, as most truck routes are shorter in nature. They aren't gonna touch long haul for a while. Though they do apparently charge up very quickly.

I agree there are a lot of negatives though. Not a truck driver but the ipad light seems like it would be very annoying and then reading instructions while driving, especially where you have to turn your head away from the road is really bad.

Ultimately I think people are too worried about the interior. It's not gonna be that hard to move seats over if needed.
Ask HN: How do I get a personal page design that doesn’t suck?
I just want to focus on content. I want a minimal, fast, legible page that is built from Markdown.

I’ve tried four or five times now. Dozens of hours wasted learning frameworks and testing out themes and designs.

I don’t have thousands of dollars for a designer to come save me. So I’m feeling frustrated and lost at how to get something that’s serviceable so I can move on to the content.

Every blog I see linked on this website seems so nice in comparison!

For reference, my current attempt. I hate it. https://todays.pointless.click/
I think that's a joke, reads like one at least. I think even if you're in a "tribe" like that, you can recognize the cult-like environment. Many Clojure followers would acknowledge the community can sometimes be like a cult. Same thing for Rust and a bunch of other languages. Doesn't mean we don't like it :)
For kicks I once saved a local company I was working at about $30k by installing a wordpress caching plugin.

Their website went down when they got some international attention, and the consultants they hired designed a "solution" which involved big dedicated machines to host their (essentially text+image) wordpress site. The site wasn't my job at all, but when I overheard the price (and read their engineering plan) I asked for admin access and told them 10mins later to fire the consultants.

The director of engineering (an awesome guy) advised that I register a business and not use my name, then he hired me under pseudonym as their new consultant and I billed them at twice the rate they were paying me during the day for a few hours here and there at night (in retrospect, a total steal for them as I was an intern..)
I just bought a thin client and replaced three of my Pis and added a lot of spare room to host a Plex server and a Pleroma instance. The only remaining Pi in use drives my 3DPrinter. Thin clients seem really great for most typical server-type use cases with low power needs.
FYI interest rates were 4-6% during the dotcom boom.
I’d be happy to point them to the UI for disabling awdl0. Let me know when you find it.

This is a ridiculous strawman fallacy. HN loves gossip about tech companies getting caught doing things all of the other times it has happened. Hundreds of comments and upvotes on each one. But not this time? What's the difference?
CNN agrees with you, saying it's Hashimoto's thyroiditis, the most common cause of hypothyroidism. Page has publicly attributed his hoarser, softer speaking voice to vocal cord paralysis, although the original Google+ post that the stories about it seem to have used as their source is no longer available.
I was able to order a pi 4 B+ this morning by watching this site. They sell very quickly once listed so it took couple weeks before I could land one.

Emissions are not taxed anywhere close to the cost of damage they cause. Electric cars still pollute (tires and brake pads).

In general cars and car infrastructure is very heavily subsidized and the least we should expect for it is drivers not engaging in wasteful and dangerous behaviors.
How much of Sun wanting to use the A3000 is an over-exaggeration? I've read this before and never understood it. Sun was more than capable of producing their own 68K workstations. They had done so since the early 80's.

680x0 Unix machines were pretty long-in-the-tooth by the time the Amiga 3000 was available. Sun themselves had moved on to Sparc. NeXT was about to give up on hardware. SGI would move on to MIPS CPUs... etc

Atom used a very different extension model than Visual Studio Code. Atom was designed more in the "everything is an extension" mold and even "core" functionality could be replaced or extended in ways that VS Code likely will never allow. On the one hand greater potential power, on the other hand more potential responsibility (Atom did have some notorious performance issues with comparison to VS Code and "everything is an extension" can be hard to performance adjust at scale).

Given this Pulsar page makes a big deal about trying to preserve the package source (list of extensions), the different extension model and history/long-tail of community extensions was probably important to them.

Roland was founded by a hacker who was rejected from the Japanese university system, but has a little more of a top-down culture. Yamaha is the oldest Japanese music company, having started selling pianos in the 1880s, but focuses more on the pro audio & education markets nowadays. Also the only musical product company with a subsidiary that does everything from racing motorcycles to industrial robotics.
I've been trying to find a pi zero 2w for quite a while, and have started looking at whatever else I can import at a decent price.

so far, I've run into things like https://www.aliexpress.us/item/3256804186541934.html with such interesting features as:

* Performance garbage, single core, very cardy to use
* Some software porting risc-v has wonderful bugs
* No GPU, very laggy

and really nothing exciting on arm. I'm expecting these to disappear soon as well. really hoping some fab time opens soon to get even the allwinner devices back on the market at reasonable price/quantity.
People have day cabs now that they cant sleep in... So what's your point? This is a day cab.
Temporary solar panels are interesting to me - where I live there's a large chunk of the year where weekly solar output plummets. Stacking them in the garage overwinter is appealing, I might try this soon.

Whoever is following you and using the chronological timeline will see your tweets just fine as they happen.

Twitter deciding not to promote your tweet in the trending-ish/follows timeline doesn't seem close to shadowbanning to me.
I think we can see why the payment processors stepped back now.
> Myth #4: The climate impact of speeding is obsolete with electric cars

LOL. Some myths may be tricky to debunk, but it's hilarious that this one even got to that stage.

People don't notice the fuel needle going down as much on ICE vehicles (they may notice their gas bill at the end of the month to have been substantially higher). But EVs have much more precise energy meters and people do notice a massive range reduction at higher speeds. The difference between 60Mph and 70Mph is massive.
I’m a big fan of Nebula (Slacks project maintained by Defined Networking)
To expand on that, it is because Tesla fundamentally approaches design like a tech company instead of a manufacturing company. For example, you see this with how they make changes to their cars. They don't have any real model year. Any car of one model can be slightly different from others of the same model from the same year. They could also be nearly identical to once produced two years earlier. It all depends. They just make changes to them whenever they feel like making a change.

The tablets are there for the same reason. Instead of spending years fine-tuning a dashboard design through research, they can throw a tablet in there and release whatever software they currently have. They will get feedback from people like this Twitter user telling them they have it all wrong, then they iterate and release a software update. Maybe that process eventually gets them into a better place like it often does for tech companies, but the bigger problem is that this approach completely fails when it comes to their other design choices. You can't push out a software update to change the angle of the windshield. And this lack of focus on the initial design is what leads to making the bad choices highlighted in that thread.
Funny this guy was arguing, in 1883, that automation could reduce the average workday to 4 hours.

Good example to consider when reasoning about the current AI wave
If 90% of people are not cooking, it is by choice, not because they would have to steal time from sleeping. Modern marketing is very good at convincing people to do other things with their time than what is good for them.

Some small subset might have to make hard choices about sleep versus cooking. Not 90%. Most are choosing something else over cooking.
What is the difference between following and just going to their submissions & comments pages? Are you looking for a notification when a person adds something new, a "feed" of the latest from your followees?

Just curious what you specifically want to do?
Updating UI and potentially getting used to new layouts is really something that will improve road safety..

People, this isn't kindergarten or high school. Traffic is serious thing, not a playground
Their range is awful that's why. Most of them have ranges with less than half of what the Tesla Semi has.
This is the problem with Tesla in a nutshell.

The underlying tech is great, they just honestly aren’t great at making vehicles because they insist on throwing out everything about making a vehicle that has been learned over the past century. In a few instance this has led to interesting improvements, but a lot of times it has led to compromised vehicles.

The problem Tesla has is everyone is catching up on the tech and in 5-10 years, with diminished tech advantage, how many people are choosing a Tesla?
Do we need video games? Do we need Marvel movies? Do we need distractions from the ennui of daily life? What's stopping you from only reading AP news wires? What's the point of this post? Congrats, you've escaped the system and gleemed hidden knowledge, you're so smart.
Layer one encompasses the physical layer so I'm not convinced there's an additional layer to be had. It does require a deep understanding of the physics involved though.

I gather that you're not in the US, then.

Worker ownership is at least a respectable alternative. But it has a problem with capital-intensive industries. The workers typically don't have the resources to pool their funds and build a semiconductor fab.
I basically said this exactly same thing in a previous post. Why would Sun need Commodore? They had their own 68K systems and had moved on to Sparc anyway.
But why buy a truck that has such a narrow use-case? Economic situations can change a lot over the lifetime of a semi, and not being able to drive longer routes is a notable limitation.
For 260 km of Autobahn driving, 130 kph results in 2 hours for that distance. Even a mere 160 kph (~100 mph) saves 22.5 minutes rather than the 10 minutes you're suggesting.
I agree with you that miles travelled is a better metric.

But traffic density would be another interesting metric. Temporary speed limits on the autobahn are typically dynamically adjusted to the traffic situation.
I'm no trucker, but I've been doing design analysis for decades. I love this guy's takedown because when I studied the Tesla Semi cab design I also had about 5 of these damning observation points too.

I hoped they had some Expert in charge at Tesla and simply Knew Better. I suspect instead they fell prey to the trap of min-maxing some set of goal metrics. Where they make design choices to hit their target numbers, no matter what it takes, even if it causes other qualities to go to hell.

Shame on Musk.

Because its the sort of thing his time would have been better focused on, than his (also erratic and bumbling) Twitter takeover. As CEO the buck stops with him.
Typical article by a lefty who wants to ban fun.
1. You should not learn to code "faster". You should learn to code well.

2. This site is about all sorts of JS frameworks like Node and Angular and React. No other languages nor even clean JS without any framework or web apps. So, limited value IMHO.
> I've never met someone who is like: oh if I cannot drive 200kmph I'll be late to my meeting. That's not why people drive fast. They do because it's fun!

There’s nothing fun about going 200+ in a straight line. It’s more fun to drive fast on a bendy country road. The thing is, most people have no clue how to handle a car. People drive fast on the Autobahn because of the ego and because it is allowed.
