I recently tried a bit self-hosted https://www.netdata.cloud, looks very good but I wonder why it's not more popular?

It does have 64k stars on GitHub[0], but I had to google for months to find them.

How is Verisign any less of a monopoly than Google?
Oof - to clear a few things up:

>There is no way to know that a specific OAuth call is made by a specific desktop client so the whole concept of a client secret is incoherent.

What makes you think you can’t issue per-Client, client secrets at install time?

And aside from the authorize call itself, every other OAuth2 call is authenticated to a user and client via the grant type used.

>PKCE… overkill… you’re on a mobile platform in which case you can used authenticated https URLs that get captured by your native app.

It’s explicitly because you cant guarantee that another app hasn’t hooked into your URLs that PKCE exists.

It would be pretty easy to tell a plausible lie, though, especially if you can think of a plausible less-painful poison to pretend you used. Tell them it's something moderately painful, so you can still tell them, "look, it's still better than torture". Just don't remind them about the edge-case scenarios where it really has to be fast and reliable, and they probably won't question it too hard...
Nsmecheap does with these new domains like .party etc. Not sure who is responsible for it, namecheap or whoever runs these new TLDs
I guess the better we get at keeping up with everything the more competition there will be for our attention.
Contract law is pretty comprehensive and has been forged over centuries by scammers and grifters, I doubt there would be much new here.

This doesn't sound like it's retroactive, they're negotiating a renewal and Google changed their price. Doesn't seem out of the ordinary unless there were some particular terms about pricing and renewals.

Google isn't a charity, they're a greedy non-ethical corporation that is not famous for providing reliable consistent products. I'm surprised this kind of behavior comes as a surprise to anybody in tech.
until only a few years ago solar panels were enormously more expensive per square meter and per peak watt, so doing things to increase their efficiency was a great way to reduce $/watt hour

At that point you might as well just write an AArch64 emulator in uxn and run Chrome that way. It wouldn't be much slower than the "native" build.
You are deluding yourself if you think the US is doing well on traffic fatalities. From the graph at https://www.nytimes.com/2022/11/27/upshot/road-deaths-pedest... we can see that US car deaths/capita have dropped slightly (10-20%?) since 1995. Meanwhile, in France where the rate about matched in 1995 they have dropped by 3x, leaving the US rate at about 2.5x the French rate.
Yes, they can pull the shenanigans.

Registries (like Google for .dev, Verisign for .com/.net) set the pricing for domains under their TLDs. Registrars like Gandi add just a very slim markup.
Meat substitutes are ultra processed foods. No real surprises here.
Also from central PA: my dad and I had this discussion years ago and he argued the syllables made the count: (1)A (2)Few and (1)A (2)Coup (3)le. I was in the other camp that a couple is two (husband and wife) and a few was much more loose on definition (2-5).
If I'm reading the Gandi cart right to renew "fly.dev", yes they can pull these shenanigans. It's showing $780 to renew. I can't tell if that's one year or not.
As someone who is all in on .app and .dev, wtf. I build a brand using these domain names and Google is going to sell them to the highest bidder??

Interspersing standing panels with crops looks to be an effective strategy, some crops suffer from too much sunlight and require a little shading for optimal production (many vegetable-type crops fall into this category). Some strategies employ vertical bifacial panels. See:

Solar Panels Plus Farming? Agrivoltaics Explained
There has been one couple of years since the beginning of 2021 and now. Quite exactly like the text you quoted says.
Flat makes more sense the closer the panels are to the equator. At high latitudes, the more atmo the solar must penetrate -and- the less efficient a flat panel is. Some good diagrams here: [https://www.altenergymag.com/article/2005/08/solar-energy-po...]
The same way you deal with any secrets on a desktop: OS-supported crypto, like the CryptoAPI in Windows or if you really wanted to double down on security: password based key derivation functions or physically attached crypto hardware (like Yubico devices)
I made one of these about 18 years ago. It was a stack-based machine which meant I could get the instruction set under 32. I wrote a compiler for a little Forth-like language targeting its instruction set. I wanted to turn it into a fantasy console, but never wired up the graphical, sound, and input bits for that.
I don’t exactly like it, but isn’t it an effective measure to reduce scalping? So many .com domains are owned by entities who bought piles of dictionary words just to slap them on a SEO ads page, only willing to part with them for exorbitant prices. What better means are there to fight these people who insert themselves into the internet namespace to siphon money while providing zero value?
The average heritability is 49%. This would imply heritability and environmental influences would be about evenly split, no? So, all human traits are influenced by heritability, but they're also influenced by the environment. This finding seems less ground breaking then the title initially suggested to me.

I'm not sure that's the case. I assumed the author bought the domain initially for $850, thinking that at renewal it would go down to $12/yr, like most .com, .net, .org, etc. do, but was surprised to find out that the .dev premium domains charge the higher fee every year.

I doubt forum.dev would have ever been $12/yr. Most single word .dev domains are marked as premium and vary from a few hundred to a few thousand dollars annually. I know because I had speak.dev at one point and it was $350/yr and renewal was $350/yr as well.

Now if by some chance they initially paid $12/yr for it and now it's $850, then that is not ok and means that any .dev domain is at risk of dynamic pricing, which I feel like would kill the whole TLD forever for me.
Generally it's done by the company running the TLD (called the registry). Registrars like Namecheap generally can't pull these shenanigans and have to keep their markup reasonable because otherwise people will just transfer the domain to a different registrar which doesn't pull the shenanigans.
Actually, the game art uses tilted panels (crammed closer together than they'd be in real life, so the shadow of one falls on the one behind it), though I admit I did think of Factorio solar panels in the sense that in the game you can make an area inaccessible to pedestrians by spamming the ground with them.

I did a bunch of research on thin clients before buying one and I found a site[0] that compiles data on a bunch of different machines.

I ended up going with a Wyse 5060, it's a quad-core machine at 2.4ghz + 4gb of ram. It was pretty widely available for ~$35 on ebay so I figured even if it didn't work out, I wouldn't be out too much money.

As far as other retailers go, every discussion I found online basically told me to look at the usual places. eBay, FB marketplace, maybe craigslist. Unfortunately I didn't find any independent retailers.

Also, depending on your use case, you might want to look into AIO thin clients. You can pick up a full machine with a screen for under $50. Unfortunately, the specs on those machines were a little underpowered for what I needed, but it might be a better fit for other projects.

It may be too big also for Japan, so maybe fine only for Australia?
I wonder if this will help the uptake of Swift on Linux?

Swift is an interesting language. I more or less like it and use it about 10% of the time when hacking on personal projects, but I have only written one app in Swift (and SwiftUI.)

One interesting thing is how much Apple has improved the Playgrounds Swift IDE that runs on iPadOS and macOS. The iPad version now has functionality of publishing directly to the Apple Store. You say, probably correctly, that Swift missed the chance to be a generally popular language. Perhaps Playgrounds will increase interest?
Out of curiosity- you're stating that more terse means less maintainable? Code golf and "cleverness" are hard to maintain, but more verbose does not mean something is more maintainable. Unless it's entirely boilerplate, more verbose code seems to generally be more complex than necessary
You don't need to worry about it scaling to supply a burger hungry world. The market for burgers will clear, no central planner needed. Maybe they wont be available for $6 they will cost $12. Then again, not everyone needs to get the bulk of their calories from burgers.

The U.S. needs to stop trying to feed the world, especially with extremely cheap (and low quality) corn and soy that are exported primarily for use as feedstock or for biofuels.

We have created enormous imbalances in global food supply by driving out of business local producers, making many countries dependent on a small number of producers for global staple crops, which is a dangerous proposition that puts the world at risk of famine should trade be disrupted.

We pay the price for lack of nutritious food in higher health care costs and lower quality of life in our later years.
Sorry. It's Google registrar service and they own .dev and .app and can increase and decrease prices whenever they want. Just like how Donuts owns .io and has increased renewal prices a while ago. [0]

Don't expect Google to care since they are after your money.

I have yet to run into the first type and I hope I never do. I’ve had such wonderful experience of people willing to help. Even big names like Steve Klabnik graciously offered some responses to my very elementary comments and questions.

The only community that’s been just as wonderful is the TypeScript community on Discord. Gosh they set the bar high for expectations on getting language help.
According to the author's previous tweets, this domain wasn't premium when he purchased. Google decided to make it premium AFTER purchasing.
I just checked in the commercial rates are slightly over 7 cents today
.com is operated by just a single registry, Verisign, which has just as much of a monopoly over .com as Google has over .dev.

The difference is that Verisign's registry agreement with ICANN prohibits this kind of pricing shenanigans whereas Google's does not. Expect Verisign to try to renegotiate this when their agreement is up for renewal.
But there’s a whole spectrum of heritability between “all traits are heritable” and blank slate.

I had to look up this story, and it's about as ridiculous as it sounds. This source places the event in 1835, but I believe it's the same incident:

http://southernghoststories.com/the-witch-of-fentress-county

>When Joseph Stout went before Judge Abraham Caruthers, Attorney General John B. McCormick refused to prosecute him. The witch-hunters tried to argue with Judge Caruthers and cited the Statutes of Henry VIII and James I which made witchcraft a felony. The judge shot them down and told them that the statute only applied in England and had no standing in the state of Tennessee.
Here are some of the methods I use:

- Put a chair in the garden and sit in it for a while. I like a big camp chair and a foot rest. Sometimes I'll listen to the shortwave, sometimes I'll whittle, sometimes draw. (If it's cold then it's a test of my winter gear too)

- Lay down, put on some favorite music, grab a portable keyboard, and play along.

- Similar with a suggested music playlist, putting Bluetooth speaker near my face, taking a stereo separation sound bath.

- Simple home tasks, like I enjoy sweeping so I put on some headphones and sweep leaves for a while

I usually do this kind of thing when my head or eyes start to feel that tired feeling. If I can, I try to give the activity at least 30-45 minutes. It's also a nice reset to prepare for some planning.

Good luck in finding whatever ends up working for you.
Chinese mobile carriers used to (and may still) do exactly this. Numbers with multiple 8’s were more valuable because 8 is lucky, whereas a single 4 (a homophone for “death”) meant a reasonable discount.
You're working under an inaccurate mental model of the web...or at least how the web used to be.

The OG model here is one of decentralization. In this model, the registrar (Google) isn't the owner of the domain. They're just a business that deals with the annoying details around registering a domain on your behalf, and you pay them a small fee to do so. Once again, the registrar can't sell or rent you anything, because they don't own anything to sell you. The registrar only sells the service of acting on your behalf.

Premium domains were originally seen as a shitty thing to do, because it put the domain registrars in the business of acting against their customers. Instead of registering a domain on behalf of their customers, they instead would buy the domains for themself, so they could then sell them at huge markup to their customers. Some registrars then took things further and pre-register domains their customers searched for, even if they never had any interest in buying the domain originally. Extra shitty.

The current .dev (or similar) situation once again feels really dirty to people thinking of the web under this traditional mental model. Domains aren't supposed to be just GIVEN to a single company to then charge whatever price they want. The web is supposed to be decentralized, and instead...we're here.
For particles of uniform size, a simple uniform grid will work best. If you set the grid cell size to the particle diameter, then you only need to search the adjacent voxels for each particle. The uniform grid method is also easy to port to the GPU, unlike other acceleration structures like BVHs or Octrees.
But how much different is that from googling and getting a crappy stack-overthrow answer, or a poorly written blogpost? In the areas I am an expert in, the information I find is often incorrect, insufficient, inaccurate, invalid and often downright incredibly shitty. Still better than nothing?

A bigger problem is that GPT depends on us all writing and publishing answers and examples, which we often do as part of our discovery or learning process. If we are just given answers, perhaps we won't publish answers, and then GPT will not have the material it requires for it to give its answers. Also we are mostly motivated to write because we have an audience: however with the intercession of GPT, the audience disappears and there is less motivation to publish.
Yeah, Google really takes NIH to another level - you need to set up a different build chain specifically for Google-written dependencies.
> Hourly (time and materials) seems the most common, but customers will still ask you estimate for tasks. If the task gets big you will feel tempted to make up a number that feels right and multiply by the hourly rate. That turns it into a big fixed-fee project.

Well okay, but don’t do that? Estimates are estimates, not commitments. You can make it clear that it’s an estimate, that you’ll stay in constant communication re: status/progress, and that costs/timeline could change, and then charge strictly time and materials. If the estimate changes, it changes. Clients who understand this model are my best clients. Clients who view estimates as an unbreakable agreement are my worst. That’s the single biggest differentiating factor between them. It’s usually an indicator that they generally understand software as a practice, and not an outsourced service in the same bucket as lawn care or something.
If I'm reading this right it's just an ultra long (methinks the lady dost protest too much) mental gymnastics session about why nobody should question covid hysteria? Correct me if it ends up somewhere else
Why would you build value into something that can be so arbitrarily changed though? Let's say I build my company "beyondfoobar" to the #1 company on the planet, and therefor make my website beyondfoobar.dev extremely valuable. Why would I trust that Google won't jack the rates on that domain since it's now premium? Like it's said above Google has demonstrated that they deserve zero trust, and when building value into a domain you have registered, you kind of want to trust the registrar and tld owner. My company publishes our phone number, and we don't have to worry about how much we pay for our phone number each year based on 'popularity' metrics. We expect the same for our domain name.
What's being produced and who are the market actors here?
It's also a thing with US-based numbers, e.g. repeating digits. However, the pricing not variable year over year, and may even be only a one-time fee if at all. Once you are assigned the number, it's yours and the annual reservation price doesn't change significantly.

This instance is straight up Google acting in bad faith with the bait and switch. Are they really that desperate to make a few extra bucks? What PM decided this was a good idea?

> I don't understand why people think that Twitter, a private company, should be more like the town square than Disneyland.

In a way I agree with you. Twitter is a private company, and it does not necessarily have legal or moral obligation to be neutral or be a town square. Its staff should be perfectly safe to be biased towards left or right, or moderate content with or without facts or consistency.

I also agree with you that Twitter's staff needed to consider brand safety and how to retain advertisers. That's also the theory of Stratechery and why Ben Thompson thought that Elon needed to find revenue stream other than ads to really push his ideal of free speech on social media.

On the other hand, I do wish that Twitter a town square and they do have neutral or at least consistent moderation policies for practical reasons: millions of people do get news or information from Twitter on a daily basis. Millions of people do engage in discussion on Twitter on a daily basis. As a result, Twitter does become essential for facilitating and spreading information. In that regard, moderating debates, especially the controversial ones, can be harmful to the public. Imagine what it would be like if you were Botzmann yet you couldn't discuss your theory, or you were John Snow yet you were silenced for thinking cholera was not spread by miasma. Miasma was the mainstream theory in the late 1890s, no? In the eyes of the people in 1895, Snow was spreading "misinformation" that "could danger people's lives", no? We could safely bet that if there were Twitter at that time, the staff would be sided with the miasma theory, no? Another reason is in the spirit of "veil of ignorance". Society changes. People change. We're progressive today, but we can be conservative tomorrow. We can be left-leaning today and love projecting and attacking people's motives, but we can be right-leaning tomorrow and declare heresy this and evil that. I bet Robespierre believed that no one he guillotined was innocent and he could stay in power for long enough. I bet many people believed that the protestants in St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre deserved the death. I bet the elementary school students in China believed that they were righteous when they beat their teachers and school principals to death with knuckled belts. Without us believing that we can expressive our opinions in public safely, there will be guarantee that truth could come out quickly, and there will no guarantee that your group of people will be safe, no matter how dominant you are for now.

> This feels like outright theft.

Theft of what? You never really 'owned' a domain there in the first place since Google outright owns the TLD and can increase / decrease prices at any time.

It always has been 'rented', meaning you never truly owned it.
