First thing I thought when I read the title was that Mick Lynch [1] got replaced in the UK RMT workers union, who are currently fighting the railway companies (along with, it seems, almost every other union on the island).

Should have realized Labour was spelled incorrectly :-)

Every time Elon tweets TSLA goes down- you would expect the rate to be parabolic but impressively it continues to be linear.
No, the older ones are much larger, and still in common use in audio studios and for musical instrument connections. They are exactly the same form factor as the ones used for patching and routing phone calls on the old switchboards, as your comment lists, and the addition of switches behind and next to the plug to be operated by the insertion of the plug is a pretty old practice as well. I've never seen a TRRS or a TRRRS in 6.3 mm but in 3.5 TRRS is pretty commonly used for the headset connector (and, just like in the days of old, when you plug it in the sense switch will disable the speaker and mic on the phone and route the signals through the plug instead).

I still have an old phone (not a smartphone) that uses a 3.5 mm TRRS jack for that purpose and I would not trade it for any Bluetooth gizmo, it works perfectly, you just need to be a bit careful with the cable. But no stress about the earpods running out of juice.

The first time I saw a 3.5 mm was in my 1975 six transistor Japanese little 9V AM radio. It came with one of those weird pinkish earpieces.
So basically people raised enough stink that ElonJet was unbanned, but with the policy changes will likely be banned (again) but this time under the guise of violating the rules and policies. And now the other jet accounts are being removed as well in order provide convenient cover.

It gives incorrect information about the process all the time. For making LSD one of the steps was waiting for a specific color change, but with the wording of the prompt changed it used the same context but specified a different color.
Society as a whole is making "raising kids" harder. Kinless seniors will increase in numbers. I think we will just die for lack of care if we are in this situation 35-40 years later(I am in mid thirties).
Ok, you're too clever for me
PCI could be hot-pluggable actually. It requires a lot of fiddly bits though. Especially, you need to setup enough address space for the cards without knowing what they are.

It's not clear that it will do something completely idiotic if you mess up a parameter. The documentation didn't mention it, so I figured I'd try and see what happens.

This is the worst of dynamic languages: if you mess something up and you get an error: okay, fair. If you mess something up and you ignore it or do something insane: that's just stupid.

"Read the documentation from cover to cover to something as simple as sending a HTTP request" isn't really much of solution.

> The reason being that the browser isn't responsible for determining what goes into the request, only that you can make one. JSON isn't the only option. It could be YAML. It could be base64. It could be null.

The standard data type for POST is form data, so it could just default to that for objects.

Or it could throw an error.

Sending [object Object] is not reasonable behaviour in any shape or form. I guess it just calls the JS "to string" logic ("logic"), but spreading that to new APIs is just not a good design, especially when it's "hidden".
The average is not the only stat though, and doesn't tell everything. Even if it were true that FSD was safer than the average of human drivers, replacing some manually-steered cars with FSD cars could result in more pedestrians getting hit, depending on the breakdown within the two groups. The overall average isn't enough information and obscures the internal distribution of skill/safety within the overall population of drivers.

It matters who is driving what cars. If you're taking safe drivers and having them drive FSD cars, and comparing the average of that against the average of all non-FSD driven cars (which includes a lot of really shitty drivers in the average), then the net safety impact of this could be nothing. Introducing FSD cars would have no impact to overall car safety, and might even have a negative impact, if the FSD software is worse than the good drivers who are now not driving manually-steered cars but are driving FSD cars instead.
Dr. Guillotin's invention still is the most humane execution method.

I do not share your frustration, but perhaps your pain points are a sign that you shouldn’t put your trust solely in a PIN. If you can forget it that easily, and if manufacturers seem to favor design over security, is it really a proper form of authentication?

Relevant to my point: one of my previous banks used a PIN to confirm transactions. The keyboard for this was randomly re-generated after every keypress and had no visual or haptic feedback. I was also forced to change my pin every once in a while.

It's happening at the same time that there is an unsupported rumor from unidentified sources claiming that Twitter is talking about doing that. They are not actually doing that now, nor do we know if they are discussing it.

This is how news bifurcates into two sides - rumors are assumed to be facts by people when they support their internalized narratives, then get repeated as fact without context or any of the details.
Wouldn't endianness be a concern regardless, unless you are literally only reading/writing (null terminated) strings? Which I would imagine to be a much rarer case than writing a mix of data-types or just plain text.

I tripped it up with a somewhat ambiguous question using pirates.

Q: There are two boats in the ocean. One boat has 11 regular sailors. The second boat has 8 pirates. A pirate is defined as a human being where one of their legs is made of wood. How many real human legs are there in total among the two ships? Explain your reasoning.

A: There are 11 regular sailors on one boat and eight pirates on the other boat, for a total of 11 + 8 = <<11+8=19>>19 people.

Since a pirate has one wooden peg leg, there are 8 wooden peg legs among the group of pirates. Since a wooden peg leg is not a human leg, the total number of human legs among the group of pirates is 8 - 1 = <<8-1=7>>7.

In total, there are 11 + 7 = <<11+7=18>>18 human legs among the two boats. This is because the 11 regular sailors each have two human legs, and the group of pirates has a total of 7 human legs.

Once I was far more explicit in explaining the logic however it was able to get it correct:

Q: There are 2 boats in the ocean. One boat has 11 regular sailors. The second boat has 8 pirates. Sailors always have two legs. Pirates always have one leg because the other one is made of wood. How many real human legs are there in total among the two ships? Explain your reasoning.

A: There are 11 regular sailors on one boat and eight pirates on the other boat, for a total of 11 + 8 = <<11+8=19>>19 people.

Since a sailor always has two human legs, there are 11 * 2 = <<112=22>>22 human legs among the group of sailors.

Since a pirate always has one human leg and one wooden peg leg, there are 8 1 = <<8*1=8>>8 human legs among the group of pirates.

In total, there are 22 + 8 = <<22+8=30>>30 human legs among the two boats. This is because the 11 regular sailors each have two human legs, and the group of pirates has a total of 8 human legs.
Elon loves free speech that he agrees with.

The dude is obviously within his rights to ban anything he wants on his private property, but it can’t be the world’s public square if he does so.
> "physics person dismissive of other fields"

This reminds me of an old physicist-lawyer joke:

A physicist goes to see a lawyer. He knows that above all the lawyer is interested in getting his money. So the physicist not wanting to be taken for a sucker walks into the room and fires right away:
- Hi, how much do you charge?

The lawyer fires back:
- $400 for two questions. What is your second question?
Tiny nit: the labels on the Arduino headers are z-fighting when zoomed out -- maybe offset them a bit to counter loss of precision?
Not for competitive reasons (I tend to dislike hypercompetitive games and most of my favorite games are co-op), but in general I find games with this property really frustrating from a mental perspective.

Games of the style "everyone plays somewhat independently, with some interaction such as blocking, but mostly you race to score points" have the key property that you can do much better if you spend a lot of mental bandwidth carefully tracking the state of all your opponents (how many points they have, what they're doing), which also contributes to a strong "a computer, or computer-assistance, would make this better" feeling, which in turn makes a game feel less fun to me.

I actually really enjoy Catan, in large part because of mechanics like inter-player trading and the jostle for the 3:1 / 2:1 trading ports, which makes for much heavier interaction with other players. Ticket to Ride, on the other hand, is a textbook example of the mechanics I find frustrating and un-fun.
Well, there goes any linking to spacecraft trackers, since if they list the ISS they fall foul of this rule. Or to Nasa's homepage, since they often include the location of currently active crewed spacecraft.

Probably can't link to SpaceX either, especially if they're running a crew up to the ISS.

Or the plans/sightings of senators who escape to Cancun.

Or "I met celebrity X on this flight and they were really awesome!" posts.

I tend to agree with your assessment, but I see a key difference is that computers are simply versatile and you can make them do everything you want (skills in configuring/coding notwithstanding) but even big leaps seem so much easier than working with electronics or hardware. So even the people in my parents generation who were good with hardware could do some fun stuff, but the possibilities of any computer (and access to the internet) can do so much more if you want to solve a problem or create something - that's where I think the comparison breaks down. To solve something in a mechanical or electronic way I need a very high level of skill/knowledge, but to do it with software (even just making several tools work together) enables much more in less time/less knowledge.
Why do they need to "pivot"? They should be prosecuting all those crimes, not just some of them.

The game that ruined Eurogames(2009)
The new MuseSound data files seem to be the result of the StaffPad aquisition. I haven't done an exhaustive comparison, but the sounds are the same SFZ-format, Opus compressed sounds that StaffPad uses. I don't know if the new MuseSampler is the same playback engine that StaffPad uses.
heya, i don't know of any terminal-based hypermedia, but that's an interesting concept

maybe gopher as a prototype example?

adam stepinski (creator of hyperview) is one of the heroes of hypermedia in that he didn't just develop a hypermedia format but also developed a hypermedia client, and you need both for a proper hypermedia system

so, I would say... maybe you are lookin' at the person in the mirror who is going to make that terminal app hypermedia?

(XetHub engineer here)

We're working on perforce-style locking on XetHub, and I believe git already supports things like only cloning the latest version of files. Cloning the full repo without "smudging" (pulling in binary file contents) is already possible, and cloning while smudging a subset is on our roadmap. We're definitely on a path to making git UX for dealing with large binary files as easy as perforce, and there are lots of advantages to keeping a git-based workflow for teams that already work with git.

I’ve asked it to give me reasons not to vote. It says that would be in appropriate.

But rephrasing the question slightly removes the objections.
Common sense says that this policy was not put in place to stop one-off photos of individuals, but to reasonably prevent individuals/groups from continuously tracking someone in realtime and broadcasting that information out to others.

It will be interesting to see how it is enforced though.
When I say valuation, I mean P/E (or, in the case of an unprofitable company, P/S). Two years ago, the QQQQ's valuation was much higher. Today it's much lower. TSLA is just following the broad market trend. It's not complicated.
> I mean making sure that private capital doesn't exist seems also pretty authoritarian to me.

Not really. It's really the other way around - the existence of private capital requires the state to enforce it. The only thing that makes, say, a privately owned factory actually "owned" is the fact that the owner can get the police to evict anyone trying to use it without the authorization, and drag any such miscreants to the courts. If society simply refuses to recognize private ownership of capital, and, as a consequence, refuses to enforce ownership claims, how is that authoritarian? There's strictly less use of force involved.

I would also argue that "democratic" and "authoritarian" are not actually opposites - it's entirely possible for a democratic majority to use authoritarian measures to keep the minority in check.
Mine was a 2018 Q5. Had a central knob, which I thought was nice for navigating around the screen. But yeah, overall the software and system was pretty lousy. In fact, I was _never_ able to get it to connect to my carplay (or whatever I was supposed to do) to show a map. My wife had that working with her phone. But I couldn't do it! I also couldn't charge my phone and stream music at the same time. And obviously, the software - which already seemed behind the times in 2018 - was never updated in four years. I got in the habit memorizing entire routes from my phone before I drove. It's interesting now to have a car where the map is front and center.

First thing I did with this Tesla is turn off the heated steering wheel for my driver profile. My hands sweat easily, so it was undesirable.
When I was in Google Patent Litigation, I volunteered to work on Nest because it sounded cool. So I spent a couple days over there (they weren't on the Mountain View campus) and sat in on some deposition preps. They were being sued by a Texas company called Allure, which was not a troll; they actually had a product that, at one time, you could have found on the Home Depot web site. I'm not going to reveal any legal secrets here, sorry.

I did a ton of research on this space, and dove into their source code. Literally all over the world, companies have been working on this problem for decades. How you know when someone is coming home so you can turn on the heat or A/C, or how the utility company can do it for you: all that is very, very well covered. I don't think there's anything fundamentally new about the Nest, and I don't have one in my house.

I actually stayed in someone's house that had two, so it's not as though it's completely foreign to me. I don't think that web-ifying your whole house is ever a good idea and I'm never going to do it. YMMV.
Of course he CAN do it. He did do it, after all. Have you never heard of criticizing someone for something they can do?
Man the circuit simulators I had to use at university a couple of years ago were old. They were in color and the TA's told me that was a big deal.
I find that to be true of most games that are simultaneously complex and require one player to mechanically implement a bunch of the rules. The new Arkham Horror fixed that largely by having an app implement the rules.

(D&D and similar require one player to DM, but that player also gets to be subjective and improvisational and do storytelling and pull in player ideas, which is much more fun than being the mechanical interpreter of the rules.)

(I do think the new Arkham Horror still has some issues, notably an excessive opacity of mechanics sometimes that leads to "you just lose out of the blue for unforeseeable reasons". But it's still usually fun.)
They have been prejudged and sentenced accordingly.
I’m pretty burned out by devops and backend solutions. I think the number of cloud native services and tools is similar if not more exhausting than FE in terms of depth and complexity.
A lot the most famous Cold War spies were "walk-ins", meaning they were Soviet citizens who turned against the Soviet Union (often on ideological grounds) and then literally walked into the US embassy in Moscow or another Soviet state. If they were onsite they'd be debriefed by the CIA personnel there to determine if they were sincere or a plant, and then assigned a handler.

Often times that handler was on a diplomatic visa and they'd have a KGB tail, so one part of tradecraft was learning to lose a tail so they could go dark and meet up with their contact or pick up documents/photo negatives at a dropsite.

There were plenty of US walk-ins as well who walked into the Soviet embassy in Washington. They seem to have typically been motivated by financial goals.

According to the Wikipedia page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_War_espionage#Known_spies...) on Cold War spying, it doesn't look like there are cases of spies being sought out and turned within the Soviet Union. Although, it does mention that some came over to the US when they were Soviet officials assigned to posts outside the USSR, so it's possible they were sought out then.

Now that there are business cases to be in China and Russia, we might have non-offical cover agents in those countries without any links to the embassy, but obviously that's just speculation.
wait is the code actually FOSS or is this just freeware. I only see docker files.
There's a lot of people still making that mistake.
> I hate that, because honestly Javascript and the web would benefit form removing a lot of the cruft.

This is the primary argument against worrying about N+1 standards. We know it's bad, if we simply do nothing at all, we know it will get worse. We can and should at least try.
I agree. Western governments are doing just fine delegitimizing themselves as positive forces without our help. They'll either become more transparently honest brutal oligarchies, or they will collapse.

I'm good with either direction.

Sometimes a BFD tech comes around. Even if it’s not immediately obvious, Tailscale is a BFD.
Definitely one of the best. I’ve played many many hours of this with and without expansions. Very playable with two, but best with 3 or 4 players - the negotiations between players is where the game really shines.
Ask HN: What do you read for economic and market analysis?
I read Bloomberg and the WSJ, but it seems there's more politics and specific company news than meta analyses. In fact what I'm looking for is a variety of market prediction, economic meta analyses and diverse perspectives. A bunch of essays of VERY recent events.

The goal is to use this to base investment decisions and to be generally informed of current events and opinion pieces of what might happen, but also build my theoretical knowledge.

I'm curious what others here read.
Public figures have always had fewer privacy rights than regular citizens. See paparazzi. You can also often find out where politicians and journalists by calling their offices. It's not private data.

So, yes. I would be OK with it. So long as, like with the flight tracker bots, it's not included with an incitement to violence.

Ah yes, you bring up data, only to paint the data that doesn't agree with you as "they're obviously partisan". Not interested in having a conversation with someone who isn't debating in good faith, or who paints all the data that doesn't agree with their preconceived notions as invalid.

I wouldn't worry. This policy was made specifically so that Elon could take down the account that posts where his plane is and any reincarnation of that. It won't be enforced on anyone else, unless you're protesting Elon. Or one of his autocrat friends. In which case you should use a different platform anyway.
