From the documentation side it still kicks paypals ass all over the floor.

Will definitely be collating the few stories of this I've seen though. We have a couple of large clients considering moving from PP to stripe, and while slow and somewhat useless, they could always talk to a human account manager at PP..
Talk to a medical professional before engaging in any change to your diet or medication, especially if you have mental health issues.

This kind of thing is how you spiral out of control, I've seen it dozens of times. You and anyone else struggling need to find QUALIFIED people to help you, not random Internet people.

Your life literally depends on doing what I'm saying here, not in experimenting with fad diets and snake oil medications.
Think its important to note here that you can use any tool and technology here (incl. pieces of paper by topic). I found that most prolific thinkers never used a PKM but have their own and usually very simple systems to take on information that is important to them and use it in the future.
> anyone who posts about this issue on reddit gets downvoted and teamed up against by established Reddit accounts, that I have to imagine are owned by Stripe.

You seem to be underestimating the power of fanboyism. If someone is a fanboy for a company/technology/whatever, they will defend it vehemently without even being paid for it.

> mainly talking about coding in PERL. It's a little sus.

But this now makes me want to ask you if you think those accounts are in the room with you right now.
Yes indeed. IIRC std::sort's sorting network is only 3-7 elements wide. With SIMD we can handle 256. The trick is to minimize shuffling by reshaping 1D input to 2D and first sorting the columns. Previously one would then transpose (expensive) and then again sort columns. We instead fuse those two steps, see https://arxiv.org/abs/2205.05982.

People? Or sockpuppets?

I'm quite suspicious of the large amount of anti Elon propaganda going around. Especially on this platform where comments are usually more measured. It just looks different to normal and it has my Spidey senses tingling.
PayPal does. And they have indeed helped me when my account was frozen.

A large company I was working for transfered all money out from Paypal every night. I would never leave money with Paypal or Stripe.
Ask HN: Dual adjustable arm keyboard setup?
Hi HN, have you ever seen anything like what I'm describing or have ideas for how to build it? Essentially I want to have a fully split keyboard with each side resting on / attached to a tray which is mobile. This way, I can adjust the position of my hands relative to my monitor throughout the day, mitigating "rest is strain".

Thanks in advance.
“[…] you cannot have a namespace which has all three of: distributed (in the sense that there is no central authority which can control the namespace, which is the same as saying that the namespace spans trust boundaries), secure (in the sense that name lookups cannot be forced to return incorrect values by an attacker, where the definition of "incorrect" is determined by some universal policy of name ownership), and having human-usable keys.”

The QOI benchmarks shows it only lagging a small bit behind PNG in compression ratio, while performing much faster (multiples) in both encoding and decoding. Doesn't seem like an awful trade-off. Surely you'd expect a much larger, slower and more sophisticated encoder and decoder would at least net 25-50% improvements to compression ratio, but it seems to net much less.

If you are artificially or truly constrained in either CPU usage, or maybe just static code size, it seems like it would have some appeal, even if niche.
IMO- an intro level college courses in GIS and/projections would go a long way here. I’ve often found that to be the case for the software community.
The secret to life is that there is no real secret. Everything is just about going and doing stuff, experimenting and tinkering with things, choosing one area of focus and then doubling down on what works.

This applies to everything. Relationships, health, personal development, business, learning etc.
In isolation, bugs don't suddenly reappear no. So if you only regression test on unit-level, it's very unlikely the test will ever fire red again. What you should do is write use-case regression tests. This will protect you from major regressions, such as "user-registration is taking several minutes", because this is a major bug that can occur for a million new reasons, even if last time the reason was isolated to "database query x was running very slow", your test should track the former, not the latter.
After a quick skim, it looks like Unicon is pretty much Icon (which had an unusual-for-the-time failure-driven control-flow option) + objects + "batteries included" libraries for graphics, networking, etc. Have I missed anything?
I've read into this some more and it seems like the county has been accused in the past of not doing enough about the stray cat problem. It seems like that they've had beef with activists in the past and decided to send the cops in to teach them a lesson
I think it will be a long, long time until a solar panel which can be driven over is price competitive with a normal one.

Anyway, we’ve signed up for a bit of desertification already with climate change, right? So there will be somewhere to put the panels in a nice space efficient shape like a square.

Honestly I wonder every time it comes up whether the solar road was a straightforward grift or something more nefarious like an attempt to make environmentalists look ridiculous.
You can simply use the steam decks UI on any Linux system and it works great on AMD. Hardware acceleration on Nvidia is somehow super messed up still, so not recommended for those just yet.

That is a fun side note :) Do you have a source for this? I'd love to read more about it. I assume it's because when you're actually taught this specifically, you remember it, as opposed to native speakers who "learn" the spelling via osmosis or something.

Thanks for sharing this!

The takeaway for me is - to try and never respond to intimidation and fear with productivity, only respond positively to a positive stimulus. Lest I’m already in some kind of a simulation running software development workloads.
I really like seeing how others use Obsidian. As an Obsidian user and a (neo)vim user, I think there's a lot of overlap in why you should invest just-enough-time to make it work for you.

Disclaimer: after 10+ years of vim and too much time customizing it, I ended up with LunarVim an I'm very happy with it.
Considering you are posting this on HN, and you crated a new account to do this suggest you should have known about HN for quite some time.

The quickest way to get Stripe support is by posting on HN. You should have done that first.
> god knows it probably exists if it's legal

It most certainly exists, even if it's actually illegal. I mean, come on, how many are there C codebases with more than 10k lines that have absolutely zero UB? I've seen several C programmers who, when "wrestling the compiler" to emit some certain kind of pattern in the resulting assembly, would do bloody anything without much regard whether what they wrote was legal, or implementation-specific, or UB. "It compiles to what I want with the compiler we use today, that's all that matters. We'll probably change it in the future if it breaks".
An old saying goes that it is better to be a doctor than an architect. A doctor buries their mistakes, but all an architect can do is recommend their client plant ivy.

This might be a fine application for immersive IT on the grandest scale. Provide the fully complete 24-hour sensory experience of actually living in, or next to, one of these monuments to oversized municipal egos before the first shovel touches the dirt. Use IT to determine if the benefits match the (simulated) lived reality…before the City has an ugly, dysfunctional 50+ year problem on its hands.

And have the members of the current Community themselves provide an evaluation of whether the project as simulated meets their wants and needs, and not just the needs and wants of the City Council, builders or architects. There would have been a lot fewer Brutalist buildings and high-rise urban renewal housing projects built, if such an accurate immersive simulation had been available in the 50s-60s.

Such a simulation is probably beyond the capabilities of this generation of IT professionals. It would be a very hard job to model the diversity of residents, situations, environments, future economic scenarios, etc. over the lifetime of the proposed large building. Validating the QoL of the simulated environment would be even harder. (Maybe start with known failures and see if the simulation predicts the observed issues.) But if the QoL impact of large projects can’t be properly assessed, maybe smaller, more human-scaled projects are the responsible approach. Sprawl or no.

>It was never stated that a Turing Machine could be simulated completely, but that one can choose an N that is large enough for a given need.

What I read was that an FSM can be used to simulate Turing Machines that always halt which was then edited to claim that an FSM can simulate a Turing Machine that halts for a given input. Both those claims are false for reasons I explained.

You have further revised the claim to state that for a given bound on the length of an input, there exists an FSM that can simulate a Turing Machine for that same input. That's technically true but that's no more insightful than just saying that FSMs are a proper subset of Turing Machines. For example you wouldn't say that the FSM corresponding to some regular expression, for example "a*b*", is a simulator for a Turing Machine that's a decider for strings that start with zero or more "a"s followed by zero or more "b"s.

If you put a fixed bound on the length of the input then you can just take a notebook, list all inputs in lexicographical order along with whether that input maps to true or false. Since presumably the length of the input is bounded by some fixed constant N, then the number of inputs is also bounded by 2^N (assuming a binary alphabet).

The confusion that really needs to be avoided is the idea that there's a subset of Turing Machines that can be simulated by FSMs on the basis of whether or not the TM halts, as though TMs that halt can be simulated by an FSM, and that the key differentiator between an FSM and a TM has to do with infinite loops.

It's totally possible for a TM to halt on all inputs and yet there is no corresponding FSM.
I don't have a single Google device in my residence for this among other reasons. I bought a tablet once while traveling just like you with my cc, didn't have time to use it much, just streamed video (never signed in, don't even remember my google account from years ago), the tablet has no gps or mobile data capability. As soon as I got home it connected to my wifi automatically. I thought I lost my mind for a few minutes. My phone being connected and somehow associating me (they can fingerprint you by your device sensors -- patented) with the stores ssid is my only explanation.

I get MS and apple are locked down but why the hell would you use a product by a company that treats you like google does. Apple and MS are just greedy or shortsighted, google is openly hostile, it's not that they don't care about your privacy but that loss of your privacy is their main product!
I think its pretty useful distinction. I know everywhere is different, but everywhere i have worked the roles have been very distinct. Engineers, especially senior ones, mentor people of course, with that being a significant part of their job, but that is really different from having someone report to you.

So why didn't they use the same option you do rather than getting their own special web portal for it?
Are you a lawyer? Did you ever talk to one about an issue you had? You'd be amazed how much wiggle room for action a good lawyer can find on an issue that seems cut and dry at first.
> The QOI benchmarks shows it only lagging a small bit behind PNG in compression ratio

The benchmarks are misleading. By size, they mostly consist of photographs and other true-color images, which neither compressor handles well. This has the effect of hiding QOI's lackluster performance on synthetic images which PNG does compress well.

In particular, QOI performs dramatically worse than PNG on synthetic images containing any sort of vertical pattern. As a worst-case example, an image consisting of a single line of noise repeated vertically will compress down to basically nothing in PNG, but QOI will fail to compress it at all.
That does not absolve them from abiding to applicable law.
> Maybe you think it's a revolution but older folk see that as an evolution.

I don't know what you consider "older" folk but I highly doubt you speak for every member of that group.

Also, I don't think the distinction here between "revolution" and "evolution" is so clear cut (or important.)
That technically counts, but they're not really lending any expertise, just a few thousand to pay for the intern.
And even more go extinct! :(

But forreal. As someone who generally loves going down botany rabbitholes, I'm quite confused as to why this was posted. I guess it has a lot of stamens and lobes for its genus and it looks quite pretty, but there's definitely other genera that commonly have much more and can look just as pretty
PayPal is a bank in the EU. Seems to work fine. Same needs to happen everywhere.
Does that just mean that the color space is untagged / undefined? (That is in practice how I see a lot of games rendered - way oversaturated on my wide gamut screen.)

> It doesn't really matter _why_ the dolphin doesn't believe algebra is possible, their subjective experience of being unable to imagine something is all it takes. The dolphin doesn't think it's a scientific or technological limitation, they just don't think it's possible.

By the terms of the principle I proposed, it does matter. Now, maybe you are arguing my proposed principle is wrong in saying that matters – but, I don't know if considering a dolphin really helps get us anywhere in that argument: dolphins are – as far as we know – incapable of the kind of abstract conceptual thought necessary to even consider the question "is it possible that nothing could have existed at all", so why would what they can or can't imagine be relevant to that question?

> What about "not existing" is impossible as an inherent property of nothingness?

Essentially what I am arguing, is that it is inherent to the very idea of existence that at least something exists. The idea of some particular thing not existing is coherent, but the idea of nothing existing at all isn't.

> And why do you think your ability to believe or picture something has any impact on whether it's real or true?

Consider a statement like "the square is both entirely black and entirely white", or "1 + 1 = 3". For such statements, it is both true that (a) it is impossible that they are true, and (b) it is impossible for us to imagine what it would be like for them to be true. Now the question is, is it merely coincidentally true that both (a) and (b), or are they both true because their truth is related in some way? To me, the later seems far more plausible than the former. In which case, if we know (b) is true of a statement, that gives us at least some reason to think that (a) might be true of it as well.

Of course, we are aware of specific cases in which (b) is true without (a) being true – but, all such known cases involve limitations of mathematical/scientific knowledge or technology. Is it possible for (b) to be true, yet (a) being false, for a reason unrelated to limitations of mathematical/scientific knowledge or technology? Nobody has proposed any such plausible reason, so I think it is reasonable to conclude that there probably isn't one. Hence, if (b) is true of a proposition, and we have no good reason to suppose our inability to imagine is due to limitations of our scientific/mathematical knowledge or technology, then that's a good reason to believe that (a) is at least probably true with respect to that proposition.
I don't know what you can do except make noise here. I hope it works out.

>...we start getting attention we get payments of $3300 and more.

Thinking of others that may encounter this issue, I wonder if it's possible to spread orders between separate payment processors based on order $ value.

Processor #1: low average order value

Processor #2: high average order value

That way each processor handles orders within 1 standard deviation of the 30 day average (or however you might calculate it). I've never handled inventory for ecommerce. Just wondering.

If that's not possible, should ecommerce sites only ever have a min - max per unit value that isn't too large? e.g. $10 - $100 unit values, with avg $50 orders. Not $10 - $1000 unit values, with avg $50 orders.

I'm not a lawyer of course, but I don't think it's as simple as saying you signed it. You could give up your right to any form of holidays or accept to offer your first born in case of default on a contract but those clauses would be unenforceable when presented to a judge.

Also I could see it with zstd (which is a lot more than 100k, though very fast indeed) but I’m a bit doubtful about lz4, it’s generally worse than deflate (which png uses) at compression and qoi lacks filtering.

Put simply, "when most of the thieving stopped, the thriving stopped."

Britain faltering is not "strange" and has little to do with political party, rather its ability to use violence to extract capital from productive outside entities and support its welfare state is nearing an end.

> In fact, I think one could make the argument that her banning increases the freedom of speech on Twitter, given her well documented history of doxxing, making false accusations, and cancelling those she politically disagrees with.

So it seems that her history of doxxing other accounts has finally caught up with her and the ToS has now been enforced on her account on Twitter, resulting in a ban.

It's only a 7 day ban, so it is not the end of the world.
Not defending Stripe here, but DO NOT HAVE A SINGLE POINT OF FAILURE! Have 2-3 payment processors hooked to a common abstraction layer, split transactions between them. If one fails, switch to others while you try to sort it out. Unfortunately, "computer says no" has become the harsh reality when dealing with any kind of corporate entities, so you need to be ready. It sucks, but that's the world we live in.
Oops, isn't there an app to recover lost phones in Uber cars?
Fine, but can you forward the interest payments to Stripe? No?

> Methadone/Suboxone are opioids prescribed for addiction and are often free through low income programs. If they were made more accessible would that solve the crisis? I don’t think so.

It is unsurprising that if a person is addicted to substance A, trying to substitute it with substance B, which has different properties (even if chemically related to A), doesn't always work. The real solution is to supply them, legally, in pharmaceutical quality, and for consumption under trained supervision (whenever safety demands that), the actual drug they are addicted to, not some substitute.

> High quality government heroin/pills and supervised usage would likely work but it’s clear the US would never consider that an option.

Okay, but if you aren't willing to seriously consider every possible solution to a crisis, that makes your stubbornness a major part of its cause. Government drug policy is a huge contributor to the crisis, and if the government isn't willing to make major changes to its drug policies, the crisis is likely to continue, and the government deserves every blame for that.
JavaScript developers tell me that disk space and network bandwidth are cheap these days. While they're mostly saying that to try and justify extremely bad architectural decisions (what's a couple thousand NPM dependencies between friends?), maybe we can apply that logic here. Maybe it's worth making every image file twice as big, if we can use a much simpler decoder implementation that's not a constant source of bugs and security vulnerabilities.
I created a PR to add a note similar to that, and a link to the Obsidian web page.
Reacts performance problems don't come from JSX, but rather how single updates can affect the entire tree below it.

Solid uses fine-grained observability like Svelte and achieves similar performance [1].
SwiftUI uses static diffing, fine-grained observability, and avoids re-renders by comparing view dependencies [2]. It is performant even on watches.
