> I was working on web development after school and got laid off, but all that meant was I had to eat the food my parents made for me instead of eating at fast food places with my friends..

A good reminder that economic downturns can be actually healthy for people, families, and the environment. With less money, people will drive less, travel less, drink less, eat less meat, spend more time with loved ones, etc etc
If you self-host with your ISP, then isn't your ISP also a choke-point? If your ISP decides to block you for some reason, you have to change ISPs or possibly your location if there is only one good ISP at your location.
Even GPT is aware that something that does not yet exist has no substance and is all hype.

Be fair. They'll do that for peaceful non-disruptive protests. Usually the term riot is applied after the cops start tear-gassing and the news can re-frame footage of people running away as "dangerous rioters".

Fun fact: most people arrested at protests end up arrested because they try to follow police instructions to disperse. The police keep directing them into a closed off area (aka bottling) and then arrest them in for failure to disperse.
in golang I can write a function and call that function in the next line of the same file. the body of the function is reusable

in terraform I can't do this

don't get me wrong, terraform is a great accomplishment. BUT there are normal 'every programming language does this' features that would make it better

All of the examples given use only the standard lib, afaict.

I actually agree with this.

Want to start a new EV company? Could build a barebones, rugged EV that is cheap as hell, easy to hack, and has no unneeded electronics / no connectivity. I would switch over to that in a heartbeat.
You mean it would be legal to copy Windows 11 from one PC, and put the copy on a barebone system? :-D
> Stick a barebones haproxy on it. Run it in tcp mode pointing at a wireguard client ip for the backend.

If you have just one backend server instance, you could also use a DNAT iptables rule instead, which would have the advantage of not hiding the originating IP from the backend. Or am I missing something?
An example that you don't have to just be smart and hardworking in order to succeed in business. You need to be lucky as well. MySQL was the right product at the right time.

Edit: Forgot the "just to be smart and hardworking"
Nope, your recent discovery of partisanship in DC, or the strength of your personal hatred of a justice or two, still does not make their appointment "court packing".
In 1996 a high end SGI desktop workstation cost about $45,000. The low end was $14,000.

In todays dollars that’s $85,000 for a high end graphics production workstation to $27000 for a low end.

Kids these days are spoiled.
I haven't tried any of the community plugins - if any of them come close to what you want, why not file issues outlining what needs improving? I've only used Obsidian tangentially, but from 10000ft it does look like the app tends to incorporate the best plugin ideas over time, so this route might get what you want into the app eventually.

Emacs org-mode does demonstrate that it is possible to create a usable interface for text-mode tables.
This is what you stated:

"You are being dishonest by trying to redefine an already established term."

Yet you claim I'm the one being emotional? Lol. Hypocrite much?
I've seen some long running work on the rust compiler to use high level guarantees (lifetimes, ownership...) to improve codegen and one of the big tasks seems to be 'remove unnecessary memory copies'. Fun to watch, I hope there'll be a cool write up.
> Liking to make money and liking to enjoy money are different traits, I suppose.

I get that. My dad was never that excited about making money, but he still described TurboTax as his favorite video game. Sometimes you just want to optimize the number, no matter what the number is.
Your interpretation is correct: I meant "faster" (and easier) in terms of UI/UX, not app speed. I'm confident the problem I'm experiencing can be fixed only by improving the UI/UX within the current technical stack. No need for a rewrite or a port to native apps, Tauri or Flutter.
The over and over is important. A lot of people do get the hint eventually. It's hardly as simple as showing a video.
The solution is to weaken the liability limitation of LLCs. If a company willfully breaks the law, its shareholders need to be held responsible, in proportion to their ability to affect change in the the company.
I think if a business is the beneficiary of a number of public subsidizes and allowances, then they lose a lot of that discretion.
You might have noticed already, but your reply is quoting the same person you're replying to.
> Farmers only get reparations for proven wolf kills, meaning you need to find the leftovers, and have them DNA-tested.

Of course. And this is done by two solid reasons.

1) Because farmers unavoidably will try to game the system to optimize the money obtained, until sucking your reserves dry.

Europe could tell you about thousands of cases of corruption in this subsides. We could write a book with the tricks and plots.

2) Because a surprisingly large amount of those "wolf kills" are in fact killed by dogs.

Feral and also domestic dogs. How do we know it? doing DNA tests.

If your dog kills a cow, why should I be blackmailed to pay for it? Is your responsibility, not mine. Feed your f*ng dog, don't let it roam around at night, pay insurance, and keep it lashed when close to my animals.

Even more, do you know who are the owners of those dogs in thousands of cases?, the same farmers that cry wolf.

Everybody knows it in the village, nobody will talk because... hey! I have a very ill sheep and the vet bills would be expensive, can I borrow your mastiff? the morons in the city will gave us free gold!
Well it is a fanless laptop, I have to keep that in mind for comparisons haha.

I used the same preset on my R7 3700x which is not the fastest CPU by any means, and managed around 70fps. But I imagine power draw is a lot more than ~3x higher.
I really like https://kinopio.club/. This canvas is definitely a step in that direction. I hope they (or a plugin) support a feature parity too
Does it? Maybe indirectly. The stock price of a company doesn’t directly translate to its power in the world.

But even then the cases you’re talking about are probably not black and white. So the answer is likely a further “maybe partly, maybe indirectly”.

Then if you take the profits and put it towards doing good in the world, have you done net good? Probably.

It’s complicated.
They stopped doing that a while ago. They realized it didn't matter and was more beneficial for them so they can scoop up more public domain and make more movies out of it.
There are people living just about everywhere. Open up Google Maps, switch to satellite view, zoom out until the scale is 2 km / 1 mi and scroll until you no longer see farmers' fields. I had to go 500 km, and I only actually found the edge of human settlement because I live in Canada and went north until I hit ~55° latitude.

If wildlife is only allowed where there's no people, it's going to be confined to the most inhospitable places on Earth.
Metropolis + AI could result in some cool outputs.
Yeah that actually makes a ton of sense. I almost added a flippant addendum to my post along the lines of “unless you’re running 1000 orchestral VSTs at once”.

And sure enough, that is a real workflow! Thanks for the knowledge.
I see it as things returning to how they were. In a small town, the person running the fast food joint often did work there for decades and everyone recognized everyone. Theft was hard to get away with because you don't just blend in to the masses like a modern city. Now tech is allowing us to hold people accountable again.
I've participated in quite a bit of peaceful protesting. I've never been shot at, but the number of times I've been teargassed for being in a park or on a sidewalk during the "permitted hours" and in the "designated zone" is much higher than the expected 0.
You and me both. Please share the memo when you it.
> Exploring historical art from new perspectives is interesting and valuable.

It's valuable to you, fine. And some people critique its premise and existence. Why do you get upset when people critique it? Why do you dismiss any criticism of feminist thought?
Seems to work if you right click and open in a new tab. Although I do agree it's a bit of an accomplishment to break an otherwise already working browser feature. Sadly not an uncommon one.
The fucked thing about this is that as it's normalized and justified it allows companies and venues to start blocking people it doesn't like for whatever reason and essentially banishes them from society for life.

Critical of Ticketmaster online and they start to take notice? I guess you wont' be allowed into most venues or concerts for life on this continent. We also won't tell you why you were banned or offer a way out (because that's how Google and Facebook operate and it suits us). It's allowing people to be kicked out of "real world" walled gardens.
DeJoy and a few of his peers have shares in Oshkosh. It makes sense that he would award the contract to Oshkosh, a military contractor, to build even more vehicles for the government. The more immediate problem putting aside the obvious favoritism is that Oshkosh had and effectively still has no ability to actually build passenger vehicles, and is reusing the drivetrains they use for their military vehicles. Meaning they're dirty, inefficient, and stupidly overbuilt diesels instead of batteries and in-hub electric motors that would benefit from stop and go routines all day, and charging at a central location in a fleet overnight.
So in theory every streaming service could put all these movies on their service, right?

Rust in vscode with rust-analyzer: Select the symbol, cmd+shift+p to get the command palette, type rename and select 'rename symbol'. Or right click and pick rename symbol.

It’s in that direction, but I also think VS Code offers more and more flexible extension points.

I was reading the plug-in development documentation [0] this morning and the ways in which you can extend Obsidian feels relatively limited. I hope they’ll add more things to hook into.

For many years USAA banking was open to everyone, but it isn't now.

I'm not sure how great a loss it is-- USAA's formerly amazing quality of service has declined dramatically in the last two years, at least on the banking side.
Not because it's impractical to check IDs, but because facial recognition is less explicit and thus more easily "normalized".
> You may have misunderstood what humane means in this context. It is definitely society's business that our fellows don't live eating out of garbage cans while swearing obscenities at no one in particular on the sidewalk. Encampments also breed rats, disease, drugs, and prostitution.

You can offer as much help as you want, but you can't force it on anyone. I think we should give them all free housing, food and whatever else they may need, but we can't use violence and imprisonment on them in any other case than self-defense. That would be a violation of bodily autonomy and extremely illiberal.
The US government rationalizing its own propaganda:

That didn't happen.

And if it did, it wasn't that bad.

And if it was, that's not a big deal.

And if it is, that's not my fault.

And if it was, I didn't mean it.

And if I did, you deserved it.
Ask HN: I'm looking for a hacking talk that discussed USGOV logos and satellites
I'm looking for a security/hacking talk. I have scoured the archives of CCC and Defcon but to no avail. My memory has provided the following:

* Man presenter who covered privacy and surveillance
* He talked about different US government agency patches and untangled hidden meanings
* He is a photographer that uncovered fake businesses setup by the US government to hide their activity
* I'm pretty sure it was at CCC, but could be wrong

I'm sure this rings a bell for someone, but it's escaping me.
We're supposed to say "United States" instead of "America" since the latter refers to more than just the U.S.

But what are we supposed to say instead of Mexican American or Asian American? AFAIK there is not an adjective in English that means "from the United States", aside from "American".
If you cannot see the asymmetry of power between an individual warehouse worker and Amazon, then everything progressive will sound like forced choice.

If you start from the assumption that people should live and die under reasonable expectations of health, growth and participation in labor, able to bring up their children to aspire to a better living standards than their own, then progressive policies will make sense.

If you start from the assumption that people deserve the life they have and everyone can pull themselves from their bootstraps, and only thing people lack is ambition and hard work, then the progressive policies will sound like stealing from the successful people.

I personally believe that corporations should exist to serve their customers, their workers and then the shareholders, in that order.
Houses aren't selling in hours anymore, sure. A ton in my area are sitting for days, but prices haven't come down all that much.
I mean, the Great Oxygenation Event is ~2 billion years in the past, and the Cambrian Explosion is only half a billion years ago. If intelligent, space-faring aliens checked it out, there's a 75% chance they arrived while the most interesting thing on Earth was, well, I can't think of anything that wasn't "technically before the Cambrian but like, only by 50 million years". Fungi?

We should look for oxygen-rich atmospheres, but we need another signal before we jump in a rocketship and go looking for someone to talk to or eat.

The idea that women shouldn’t have sexual and intellectual autonomy is antiquated, immoral, and should be fought against. As it pertains to women’s rights the views and mores of Afghanistan’s men are abhorrent, disgusting, and worthy of ridicule and mockery.

This is independent of the many flaws and faults of western colonial powers.
Absolutely, barring any environmental issues (moisture or heat), they will probably image just fine. But please note that Amiga formatted disks won’t be possible to read in a standard PC floppy drive. You’ll either need to use an Amiga with some kind of transfer software, or custom hardware for disk imaging.

Edit: I just noticed that they are discussing this very thing a little further down the thread, with lots of concrete options.
Some claims don’t seem to match the source…

They show an arabic anti Al-Qaeda account in Yemen with two posts. One has 1 like. The other has zero likes. We’re supposed to believe that’s with Twitter “amplifying” the account?

This post also doesn’t say what the author claims it says…

“Drone targets Al-Qaeda car and news that Abu Jandal al-Hadrami and Abu Hashim al-Sharuri were killed in the airstrike in the Al-Abra area of Hadhramaut”

The typical Dutch response to this is “You can fall and hit your head when walking too, but no one walks around wearing a helmet.”
Can anyone also look online to see what types of furniture you have, how often you replace it, how you have it arranged, if you have children in the house, how clean/cluttered your home is kept, how often/quickly you put things away, whether or not you are a hoarder, if you have pets, etc.

Continuously updated maps of your home and its contents over time is a lot more revealing than just a basic floorplan.
Yeah this seems like a Dolan special: petty, poorly thought out, and potentially costly.
Tbh it would have been better if we just allowed corporations to continue paying to extend their own copyrights forever and everything that's no longer commercially viable or doesn't have an entity owning it just gets freed quickly.
I’m not suffering that much and we shouldn’t make HN a place to spin a yarn for cash, or we’ll lose what makes HN great.

The story is largely truthful, except for the character who has a pathological need to follow every rule. In reality, I’ll be late on my rent, my various credit scores will take a hit, but I’m not going to get evicted that quickly and should be on my feet again before the end of January.

The lack of employment is entirely my fault, with the peripheral assistance of crippling anxiety and self-doubt. But I can choose to make ends meet bagging groceries, etc for $15-17/hour. I’m also a reasonably median performance programmer in C++ and Python so I should be able to find salaried work in the next month or so!

If I was actually post-eviction / move-out negotiation with my apartment I’d probably sleep in a car if I owned one or set up a very hidden tent far away from other homeless people near a $10/mo gym with showers and lockers.

Those plans may be illegal currently, but they are also still probably the best choices for a homeless person looking for work. Done properly, this doesn’t result in harm, inconvenience, or cost to the public. IMO, if someone can notice me enough to complain about me…I’m not being safe.

Star Trek and the like also have utopia levels of medical tech. Physical level problems are all solvable with their level of technology.

In Scifi: Real bad people exist. Real people who need help exist. Real people who just need some time to talk out their problems with the ship's / a local counselor exist.

Real people who can't be helped don't exist, they reductively condense into one of the three classes above because society and tech are advanced enough. (Except in cases of extreme breakdowns; E.G. Voyager wasn't the only ship mostly sucked to the delta quadrant.)
Imagine doing a chargeback on Google for a bug in their app purchase, and your Gmail accounts being revoked.
Math education: Microsoft hires hundreds of math graduates yearly, an excess of those would be beneficial to Microsofts bottom line.

Ultrasound technology: Microsoft has a "digital health" department that would benefit similarly from more graduates in the field.

Construction technology: Microsoft has existing partnerships in construction technology, and would similarly benefit from an increased number of graduates in the field driving down wages.

Why are these things that benefit Microsoft the "future our grandchildren deserve"? It seems to be a pretty biased view of the future.
Two monks were walking when they met a swift but shallow stream that they needed to cross. There was a young woman stood on the bank who also needed to get across, but she was scared, so she asked the monks for help. The
monks had taken vows of chastity which included never touching a woman and the younger monk refused. The other, older monk, picked up the young woman and carried her across, gently placing her down on the other side.

As the two monks carried on with their journey in silence, the younger monk blurted out, "You took a vow of chastity! You promised never to touch a woman! How could you have just picked her up?"

The older monk replied; ”My brother, I put her down a few miles back. Why do you carry her still?”
There was an entire layer of software companies that were struggling to hire and fill roles because the big players were hoarding talent. All those companies are still hiring, the roles may not be as flashy, and the challenges may be different but they all need good engineers.

One useful thing a person could do is try to come up with a means of teaching a larger percentage of the population to have the ability to think in the manner that you have here. It is a very tricky problem space, but the payoffs could be huge.
this is huge. Would also love the ability to draw on one of these (something like tldraw.com)
I keep wondering if there's a market to build things in this style. Either smart-home/Raspberry Pi controls or something similar.
This has been my take as well. I can drill-down into third-party packages, rename stuff across files, and use the debugger.

I'm not saying JetBrains isn't fantastic, their products certainly are, but the examples given as to why I should switch are less than convincing. Just use whatever works for you.

It's similar to the flak I get for using an iPhone instead of Android. "You can't customize it!"... I don't want to.. I just want it to make phone calls and browse the web.
Have you never heard of bias response teams? People can literally be reported for using language that someone else heard and was offended by. This list would be used as proof that a particular word is harmful.

Yet there's almost no real discussion of how to use the standard library here, and a lot of talking about example code that's mostly useless (seriously - why is biorhythm pseudoscience #2, and how is displaying a calendar on the CLI going to help me...?)

I agree with the top post - I have a very different idea about what "built-in" means than the author of this article.
That's a bit '-ish'.

The bar is too high and there are huge numbers of really decent companies that need some kind of liquidity.

We're just not set up for it. Maybe it's a matter of just bringing more attention to small caps, I don't know.

Or another vehicle.

There are just too many truly great value creating business out there whereupon it's very difficult for founders to get their accumulated value out of it. People have devoted their lives to doing some good thing, but it's pointless if it's hard to market the company. This absolutely has effects on the industry because it's literally not worth the devotion required to do so many things if there can be no upuside even a good scenario of making a decent company.

It leaves way too much money in the hands of bankers and speculators and not those to took the biggest risks, made it work and likely created surpluses for everyone.

Definitely we need a new model.
