Oh wow, I had no idea light socket splitters existed. That solves a big problem for me! Thanks for all the detail here!

As for day-night cycling, I basically achieve the same thing through lighting, and I'm very happy with that. As my lights get warmer and dimmer in the evening, I very naturally start winding down. To get that with Hue's own automations requires me putting in something like 8 steps, though, so I'll soon be going back to my own software. Especially because I use my lights to change my time zone before trips to the east coast, so I'm not jet lagged when I arrive.

For video calls in particular I have an Elgato Key Light clamped to my desk at maximum extension and facing almost straight down. It gets me good brightness and controllable color temperature as well as pretty even lighting, which makes my calls look pretty good.
Some "less technical" suggestions after being inspired by other creative suggestions here:

Put brandings/personalizations/signatures in your pages that are not easy to remove to remove automatically. Include your site URL if possible. The idea is that if a visitor sees these on a different site, it becomes obvious that the content doesn't belong there.

Write an article page about these things happening, specifically mentioning the mirroring site URLs, and see if they will also blindly mirror it.
As someone who is writing I can understand why nobody reads them. If you actually read them you will find out company is not responsible for anything and can do whatever they want with your data, so it's kinda pointless to read them since your options to fight the company are basically non-existent besides the very basixc rights like right to erasure, data portability etc.

Yup. Even if you only look within a relatively small category of films one per year can miss a bunch. For example, consider the category of animated feature length films released after 2000 in the US, and pick one per year by picking the winner of the Academy Award for Best Animated Feature.

In 2001 you'd miss Monsters, Inc. because of Shrek.

In 2002 you'd miss Lilo & Stitch because of Spirited Away.

In 2004 you'd miss Shrek 2 because of The Incredibles.

In 2005 you'd miss Howl's Moving Castle and Corpse Bride because of Wallace & Gromit: The Curse of the Were-Rabbit.

In 2008, no Kung Fu Panda because of WALL-E.

In 2009, no Coraline or Fantastic Mr. Fox because of Up.

In 2010 you'd miss How to Train Your Dragon because of Toy Story 3.

In 2011 no Kung Fu Panda 2 because of Rango.

In 2012 no Frankenweenie, ParaNorman, The Pirates! Band of Misfits, or Wreck-it Ralph because of Brave.

In 2014 no How to Train Your Dragon 2 because of Big Hero 6.

2015 no Shaun the Sheep Movie because of Inside Out.

2016 you miss Kubo and the Two Strings and Moana because of Zootopia.

2019 No How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World because of Toy Story 4.

2021 you'd miss Raya and the Last Dragon and Luca because of Encanto.

Most of the winners are good...but if you just put all the above mentioned films in a pool and asked most people to pick their top 14, most would have a lot of films on their list that were not among the winners of the aforementioned years.

For the naysayers, yes, this should be part of the engineering process. But there are thousands of teams of programmers not doing this. Arguably, they aren't doing engineering, they are coding, or something else. In which case you can correctly say "this is be part of the engineering process", and point out that teams (some of which I've consulted with) who ignore this aren't doing engineering.

And yet, the number of systems embedded in our daily lives that are built without "the engineering process" is stunning. They are not typically the essential systems, but just everyday things we depend on and for which the loss would be much more than inconvenient, but short of catastrophic.

The author's points may be a rehash of old news, or even trivial, for a substantial portion of HN readers, but for many programmers and their managers, this could make them part of the "lucky 10,000"[1].

Its unnecessary conflict. If everything is the same level of disagreement, what are you _actually_ arguing and what do you just _happen_ to be arguing? You give the other party no capacity to gauge your actual level of interest. It makes the entire process that much harder for everyone and wastes the "argument budget" on ultimately meaningless stuff. Its a very similar idea to being "penny wise, pound foolish".
Even with cassettes we used a sticker. The labelers know their craft.
Other commenters arguing against you seem to be missing your point somewhat. I think right-sizing infrastructure to the community (and tax base) that supports it is a good and important idea.

It took me awhile to realize the necessity of building infrastructure this way. Strongtowns talks a lot about this -- for instance, see this piece about how many cities in the US cannot afford their own water infrastructure [1].

It makes sense that larger, more dense, more economically productive areas need and can afford different infrastructure than more rural areas. If you mandate or incentivize rural areas to use the same infrastructure as the more urban ones, you can often end up with problems.

Mastodon's at the "email in 1994" stage--the general public is starting to become aware that it exists, and folks who were running small servers for their own purposes suddenly find themselves in a position to earn social capital by handing out accounts.

I think the winning scenario will be old-school webhosts including a personal Mastodon instance with their default package, like email.

Telstar 1 started blasting TV from space in 1962.

I don't know how that required Gargarin or Shepard to be in their tin cans first.

Also, we sent up SCORE in 1958, and famously Arthur C. Clarke wrote about using satellites for telecommunications in 1945.

TIROS, the US's first weather satellite, preceded Gargarin.

KH-1, the US's first spy satellite, meant for photographic surveillance of the Soviet Union, was even earlier.

These certainly didn't require humans in tin cans first.
(1) I wasn't aware of it, but I am not surprised that something like this was written into the standard (presumably. I doubt carriers rolled their own thing)

(2) All the ways I can think off are significantly harder than rooting, so essentially no.

(3) I don't really mind that much, I have Google services running on my phone and I am certain those can do far more than my carrier could ever dream off. I have begrudgingly accepted those, so it would be a bit hypocritical to complain about my carrier turning cell broadcast back on. Especially since "turning cell broadcast back on" is a use case that I can see the argument behind.

It you care about this then I suggest you look up the relevant standard documents, probably you will find this behavior documented there.

I'm not by any means well informed on the matter, but isn't the lunar surface covered in tritium deposits?

> the nature of consciousness

As per my edit in the parent post, I am talking about "useful" Intelligence: that may be entirely different from consciousness. A well matured though, "thought at length", may probably be useful, while a rushed thought may probably be detrimental. I am not speaking about consciousness. I am not even speaking of "natural intelligence": I am speaking about Intelligence as a general process. That process near "How well, how deeply have you thought about it".

> my reading "devastatingly bad"

What made your reading devastatingly bad is the part in which you supposed that somebody said that "it cannot be implemented" - you have written «above any sort of imitation». I wrote that, having insisted on "modules to be implemented", you should have had the opposite idea: the constituents of Intelligence - with which I mean the parts of the process in that sort of Intelligence that "says smart things having produced them with a solid process" (not relevant to "consciousness") - should be implemented.

Thank you. I should have been more explicit.

The settings I am referring to are under "Apps & notifications"/"Wireless emergency alerts". They are about controlling whether to and which alerts one wants to receive on their phone.

This not only seems very user-facing to me, it's also something I definitely would want to have control over.

It's an unlocked Android One device. The carrier seems to be able to remotely change these settings (see the referenced Reddit post as well), which I would never expect. It seems to be because of the SIM the phone uses and the network it connects to. No user-controlled software change like updates.

That is not a requirement specific to Google. Most inbound SMTP services require this, even most open-source implementations. This requirement is not invented by Google, but caused by spammers using botnets.

Also, not being able to set a reverse DNS for a domestic IP is not Google's fault, it is your ISP not allowing you to 'own' an IP, and not allowing you to set a reverse DNS for the IP they lease to you.

This is why ISP offer business packages. These will allow you to own the IP (block), and set reverse-DNS for it.

I looked at the slides and the start of the paper. I'm mainly confused about two points:

- What's the advantage of introducing a new lambda calculus extension? What will we understand about Verse in virtue of the existence of VC that we don't understand about e.g. minikanren?

- How does the rewriting based execution compare with the search procedures of existing logic programming systems, and how does that impact how one would use Verse? For example, it sounds like they both want Verse to be purely declarative and performant enough to support the metaverse. But:

- The way the slides expand out the choice of two variables makes it look like it's working in DFS order. The paper makes a big point of rewriting expanding out values "spatially" rather than in time. And I guess it's relatively clear how the rewriting system would produce DFS-like behavior ... but that's a problem isn't it?

- E.g. minikanren as one of its key design points chose its interleaved search so that search could give comprehensive results on problems where DFS would (naively) never return, because it would go down some infinite rabbit hole. And minikanren, wanting to be more declarative, doesn't rely on "extra-relational" operators like "cut" which are important for prolog. This was supposed to have the impact that users don't need to worry about imperatively controlling the search, but this is only half-true in that users must pick the order in which variables are introduced extremely carefully.

So if one says "x, y, z are all nats in (0, 1, ...) and x * x + y * y == z * z", it seems that, as with DFS, the rewrite system would include a path which tries to expand out and then check all of the (0, 0, z) possibilities to the left of any of all of the (0, 1, z) possibilities, etc. So even if under lenient evaluation there's _some_ tree that finds (3, 4, 5), and this may be reached in chronologically finite time, there's an infinite pile of work to be evaluated _to its left_. So can one never take the "first" element from this sequence, since it seems this means "left-most"? Or does this whole thing need to implicitly be restricted to searches over finite domains?

It seems like either one must loosen assurances of ordering within sequences, or one must include "extra-logical" means to control the rewrite process.
