It really depends upon what you are doing with your machine.

If you're dealing with new hardware, situations like the one described in the article may pop up since vendors will focus their testing on Windows (and possibly macOS) so there is a good chance that it will work on the commercial operating systems but not the open source ones. That is going to be especially true to more exotic hardware since there will also be less testing by the open source community.

On the other hand, I find managing a Linux system significantly more time efficient. Some of it is because of the nature of open source. For example: installing, updating, and removing software is much easier since the licensing model allows distribution maintainers to create a universal software management tool. In other cases, it is simply because of the approaches typically taken by open source developers. For example: it is usually easy to copy configuration files from one system to another.

My art professor lived in a geodesic dome commune in the southern Colorado. Also discovered aperiodic tiling before Penrose who still sued him (and lost).
I think people often conflate empathy and sympathy. I agree it's worth to try and have empathy with billionaires - otherwise, like you said, we can't build useful models of the world. The problem is that we usually can't empathise, because their reality is so detached from ours. Except when they behave extremely petty and stupid in public in very predictable ways, then it's possible to build empathy with them via these very revealing actions.
And they are steel reinforced to be able to do that.
I know this point is made a lot but I’m not sure it’s that meaningful.

WW2 boats were not the enormously complex network and sensor systems that today’s are. While, yeah, 10 years is extreme, but I don’t think 39 days is physically possible.
How did this get on the front page with 3 points and no comments? I see much higher point counts with comments that are still in new.
Thanks Fabien!

Also I love all your retro work. I have a NeXTStation Turbo Color that's my retro pride and joy. Have you seen or been involved in any of the Demoscene activities? It's amazing the graphics that people are able to squeeze and abuse out of older hardware.

Off topic, but folks might enjoy Poems for Bugs, a talk where Linus Åkesson talks about cycle accurate coding to exploit GPU bugs in the C64.

they certainly do not move data to another country without your explicit direction.

I was thinking more along the lines of them not having servers in my country, so I have to send my data abroad if I want to use the service at all.

Not everyone used windows in 1994, either. What they both have/had are significant market shares in certain markets that they abuse to maintain control.
That can kill you. In fact even a personal car tire that goes can wound or kill you if you happen to be holding it.
Yeah. My Y goes farther, (much) faster, fits more stuff, seats more people, charges faster, etc... than all the competing cars. You can find one item on one model somewhere where it falls short (c.f. Hyundai's 800V charging speeds are about 20% better and the Mach-E can keep up on range numbers, but both cars are otherwise inferior).

But really it's just the whole experience where it wins.
It's a robot that drives me around town on its own, every day! Trivial and actually-working phone-as-key implementation that lets me walk up, drive, and walk away without ever doing anything analogous to "un/locking" or "starting" the car. I can turn the climate control on over the internet and watch the exterior cameras. My kids can make the turn signals emit fart noises!

The Elon hate has always been bad, and the complete dumpster fire at Twitter has made it even worse. But... they're the best cars in the world. They really are.

Seconding this, I like that contest much better than the original.

To anyone reading them and wondering why the funniest entries aren't necessarily the winners: Lyttle Lytton tends to prefer sentences that read like a bad first sentence of a serious novel, not a good first sentence of a comedic or otherwise intentionally-absurd novel. The latter sort often make the list to some degree, but rarely end up at or near the top.

Technically Google already has per-service bans for Google Ads and YouTube. That doesn't help if you get banned for a reason unrelated to those services however.
This is so beautifully written and really touches on the core issue. So much wealth and power coupled with such small thinking and a very unhealthy mind.

Yes, he could even solve world hunger, or just US hunger - how much to pay for the food of all school kids who get nickeled and dimed for their school lunches? He could even die on Mars.

Or, we could establish a proper wealth tax and make wealth extraction and inequality of such ridiculous proportions less possible.

I know, first we’d have to un-institutionalize legal political corruption which sounds as impossible as changing the laws of physics.
I didn't mean it adversarially, but I can see how you came to that conclusion. Communication is hard.

I was trying to convey that they wouldn't exist because it hadn't been asked for. People aren't mind readers, ops has to vocalize their needs. Which is what the post was doing. And I don't think those needs are unreasonable, either. My point was more that the work to make sure those things are available needs to happen higher up than you'll be able to reach by talking to any individual developer.
Now, of course, I understand that even Google can't reasonably be expected to provide free 24/7 customer support for the entire Internet.

How about only paying customers outside of consumer subscription services (and maybe even those)? I don't know why it's reasonable to expect them not to be able to provide that service at volume when I can and have reached amazon support for small sales and even before sale events and I'm sure they move more stuff around than google does pixel phones.
You are off by a factor of 2. If you exclude deaths in early childhood people regularly made it to their 60s
I'm so weary of this sort of 'society is in decline' clickbait articles. Let's take some minimal amount of data, analyze it by some absurd criteria, and then present as some stunning insight.

There's so much wrong with this article that its hard to know where to start. The fuzziness of 'page count'. The absence of any consideration of digital readers and whether they even know the page count when starting a book.

Who ever said longer books are better than shorter books and how could they possibly justify that?

There's also trends that could easily account for this. Trilogies everywhere and one could argue that reading a trilogy is reading 1 large book vs 3 small books. Are graphic novels included?

It's all so silly
Except, of course, that the story about the Russian soldiers in Chornobyl was completely made up.

> any radioactive dirt that gets stuck on you or your equipment can do its damage for a long time

If it's outside of your body ,at the level that remains after 3 decades in Chornobyl, it's completely harmless. It starts causing problem if you ingest it, *and your body metabolizes it* (which is the big problem with iodine, but radioactive iodine has a very short half life and is completely gone now). And even in that scenario, you'll suffer from a cancer many years after, that's bad but that's also very far from the made up stories about soldiers' acute irradiation).
It sucks that this seems to be the only way. Why can’t we support both. Given how QR codes are forcefully replacing menus with no paper fallback options seems to be the only way
You can literally just compare platforms to parties in other industrialized democracies to figure this out. The democrats would be firmly center-right with centrist social positions anywhere else.
Your results match the animal studies very well. When you give rats artificial sweetener in their water and free access to all the food they could want they eat more than rats given plain water.

The sweet taste seems to stimulate appetite and feeding beyond normal needs. It’s not hard to see how American obesity keeps increasing given even this one simple experiment.

I don't use any Apple products at all, but it seems like they'd have to be better if only because they have physical stores you can go in and complain your way up the retail chain to force some sort of response.

Google in my experience is basically a giant black hole if you need any real service on the consumer side. This is one of the various reasons that like others in this thread I've disconnected myself from any reliance on Google services over the past few years. Having the vast majority of my digital identity linked to a single gmail account was super convenient, but there's way too much downside risk if someone at google decides to shut you out for any reason.
Sounds like some awesome freedom of speech going on
Yes, otherwise it would be unusable by anyone living in a city, given that underground parking (esp multi-level one) tends to have no reception at all. Not even mentioning driving through countryside stretches on road trips.

The only things that won't work with no cell connection while you are in the car are things like spotify app in the car (but you can still use spotify through the car bluetooth connected to your phone, if you preloaded the songs on your phone) or being able to see live stats of the car in your phone app.
If you don't mind paying a bit and only need a few accounts, AWS Workmail is actually pretty decent. I use my own domain for it as well (also managed thru AWS). I've been using this setup for ~4 years now.
Ask HN: Suggestions on storing entity-attribute-value model
I'm building an attributes store for storing aggregated attribute values to be used for segmentation and targeting. I'm wondering if anyone has any suggestions for the storage of such a model.

I've been reading the following:

- https://inviqa.com/blog/understanding-eav-data-model-and-when-use-it

but wanted to get a sense of real world usage and what storage has been used.
> Google can't reasonably be expected to provide free 24/7 customer support for the entire Internet

IMO they should be legally required to provide an appeals process with a real human and reasonable turnaround time (e.g. 1 business day would probably be fine with me) for all forms of account banning or website banning. For payment disputes they should also be legally required to provide human assistance within a few business days. If you can't do that then you shouldn't be allowed to take payments.

I had a location-based file sharing website banned across the internet because Chrome falsely labelled it as a suspicious website or some BS. That new Chrome version marked the end of that project. No way to reach a human. I can't imagine how many businesses and startups have been ended because of Google's rash policies and no appeal process.
This is a good reminder of why legislation is a good thing. We can’t rely on peoples individual ethics alone.
The «inhabitable for thousands of years» is a myth. Do you know how many people live in Hiroshima and Nagasaki today?

Poeple vastly overestimate the dangerous of this stuff after a few years. Fukushima and Prypiat are probably safer to live than the average Asian city center due to air pollution, or even the Midwest due to pesticide exposure…

Net metering doesn't make economic sense for utilities since it pays retail rates for production and doesn't charge for a connection to the grid. It makes sense at face value, but once you dig into cases like someone only producing power or everyone using net metering, you realize you have to change the payout structure to match the utility's costs.

Nope. People still very much don't want that.

There's no conflict between saying that and also saying that chanting 'free speech' over and over while banning people for what they say about you just makes you a liar.
same here, it’s been pretty stable and trouble free for me
Because that hit you by surprise, or because you intended to keep all those photos while on the free tier?

It seems to me like deleting the files over your storage limit is the easy path for both you and google and I don't see how this is an example of holding you hostage. At most bad communication and a lack of warning.
Common issue and not nennecessarily remote related but it might have become worse the past couple years because of it. Whether its your meeting or not, you must keep things on track. It's your responsibility more than anyone if it is your meeting but as a team, you have to do it together. I interject and even interrupt if I have to.

Sometimes it can be abrupt and seemingly a hard response but I try to say things like "Hey all, this is a good conversation but let's get back to XYZ topic for this meeting." Other times it can be helpful to state a reason why its off topic before you draw the group back. Contextual.

It's also a great team feedback/retro discussion to have with examples and how you can stay on better track in the future. This includes training how to run meetings and like wise how the team can support staying on track.

I think you got the wrong takeaway from that.
Sure, just multi-hundred amp capable infrastructure run in the middle of the street, installed to withstand weather and seismic events, with someone on call to fix it when it fails, liable for injury or other harm...

PG&E might be shite, but the hand-wavy dismissal of modern electric infrastructure is overlooking something that is a real benefit to society, and that infrastructure has real costs to keep it running.
The part it contained about "10% for the big guy" (Joe Biden) was 100% newsworthy.

It wasn't fake news and deep down all the downvoters know it.

Suppressing it when it was known to be true was also a story.

>Twitter decided the responsible thing to do for them was not to be complicit in spreading fake news this time.

Actually they were at the forefront of spreading fake news as three actual journalists disclosed. Did you not even read the coverage? Because it sounds like you didn't. I even provided links to all of it above.

Let me know after reading it if your views have changed.
With Buy-All Sell-All you buy all you use at retail rates and sell all you produce at wholesale rates. Buy-All Sell-All has a later breakeven point than Net Metering, where you buy what you can't produce at retail and sell back the rest at wholesale or better, which is an indirect subsidy for a resilient power grid with residential renewables with external benefits.

What you describe sounds like Buy-All Sell-All, except you're allowed to use and store what you produce before paying retail rates for electricity purchased from the service provider.

Is it anti-competitive to deny residential renewable energy producers the right to use the clean energy they invested in producing if they want to purchase electricity?

Another exclusive monopoly contract: if you buy water from me, you can't use the water you capture yourself.

Net metering > "Post-net metering" successor tariffs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Net_metering#Post-net_metering...

We want there to be renewable residential energy. Subsidizing renewable energy will hasten adoption. We should subsidize residential renewable energy if we want there to be more renewable energy.

If we make the break-even point later in time, residential renewable energy will be less lucrative.

I’ve just filed an issue (https://github.com/google/forma/issues/11) describing how, on an old GPU (AMD 7990) but using the CPU device, it fails to start.

This looks like an issue with wgpu-rs, but am I wrong in assuming that the CPU device would work regardless of the graphic card?
In the past dietary science consisted of paying scientists to fudge results to sell more sugary products.

The @joinmastodon account had posted a tweet that linked to the ElonJet account's new home on mastodon.social.

Banning them for that seems aggressive (vs: blocking/removing that tweet), but it's at least consistent.

Banning all links to any Mastodon server is pretty indefensible, though.
I also didn't think to look in the "language extensions" section of the manual, instead going to the API docs and clicking on the "Effect" module.

It’s not just the number of points that matter, it’s points over time. 3 points very quickly will rocket you over 20 points in 4 hours or something. And comments factor in too, so commenting “why is this on the front page” just helps it be on the front page

"... And That's Why You Should Be Terrified"
At least it’s stated and the results qualified as low confidence.

Everyone else has free agency too. Read the fine print rather than assume it’s Sesame Street out there. Adults should know the drill by now. “Grin and bear” it or get more involved spreading what you think is a better message in a more constructive way than ranting in barely noticed HN comment section.

Personally, I am going to be an adult and accept the world does not owe me coddling my sensibilities and lean heavily into DIY living. On the upside is society collapses or globalism contracts greatly, I have shit tons of hours behind me building wide and deep set of skills. And if it doesn’t well, I wasn’t sitting on social media.

I'd love to see a thorough guide on removing one's reliance on Google products/services.

I much prefer Android over iOS, but the fear of Google just being able to completely shut me off on a whim keeps me up at night and is seriously tempting me to switch. I pay Google for Fi, Pixel phones, Home/Nest devices, One Storage for Photos/Gmail/Drive, YouTube Music, and probably some other stuff. My company pays Google for Google Workspace and their 30% IAP tax.

Despite being a paying customer, I know that there's a pretty decent chance of all of that getting shut down with absolutely no recourse for no reasonable cause. It's clear the bad PR from this isn't enough to make Google care. At this point, there needs to be regulatory pressure to stop the casual cruelty.

At the moment, it doesn't. If you don't believe me on my word, I can record a screen capture video for you.
I prefer cash and would at the same time use an encrypted messenger to communicate with the government.

While cards are certainly convenient, they have failed me at very inopportune moments. I’ve also recently witnessed how someone could not book a ticket for a ferry in one of the mostly cashless European states - cash wasn’t an option and they didn’t have a card. This was at the official counter at the harbor.

A few month ago, card terminals of a widely used type failed hard in Germany, only cash payment was possible.

Being able to do some purchases anonymously is also a good thing - even if it’s only my wife’s birthday present.

I prefer a society where cash is an option for all (in-person) transactions. And preserving that requires exercising the use of cash.

Encrypted secure communication with (and within) the government, or my medical provider is entirely orthogonal to that.
I don't know that its good to learn it instead of any of those, but its fantastic to learn in addition to.

It's just different. I love haskell, but also love lisp. For very different reasons, but they're both delightful expressions of thought.

Makes a lot of sense with German culture IMO. There's a culture of doing your job very well, but not much of a culture of thinking outside of the box or shaking things up.

Some Herr Doktor probably followed all the best practices to implement "trust zones, certificates, authorization features, and much more" in the ID, doing their job really well. But actually changing the processes to use those features is not anyone's job, and might actually eliminate a lot of jobs, so it never happened.

I think we'll have to agree to disagree there, I think the charitability is a feature not a bug. I think it makes the argument accessible to Musk supporters & keeps it focused on the target of the criticism. I tried to make it more vocally critical and I felt it was less effective rhetoric.

But cheers, I think the comment is better for having your comment under it.

Powerwall gets a 30% federal tax credit (plus possible local, state, or utility rebates).
