I still develop with localhost, but instead of running my Rails apps on my Arch machine’s ruby install, using Arch’s postgres, etc. I run everything in docker containers based on the same version of Debian as production. This catches almost all deployment issues ahead of time, and the rest are caught in the staging environment.

Even for those. Swapping a CDN or infra provider is difficult, but hardly impossible.

It's much easier than the same operation for physical infrastructure.

```

that is exactly my major gripe with TDD style development. It just seems too /incremental/ and smacks of prioritising getting /specific/ features done, rather than finding the best overall design. with this tactical style development, it is quite easy to end up with a mess.
These days its incredibly easy to find or write something up to extract data from a service. Take Spotify or Apple Music for example - its very easy to export out of either despite neither of it allowing it in their TOS or providing any tools to do so.
I'm just paraphrasing (likely poorly) Associate Professor of Mining Engineering Simon Michaux. He wrote a ~1000 page report on this. I assume he understands those definitions of reserves etc. Lithium is only one of the minerals we seem to be short of.

Yet you need to install flatpak package and its dependencies to run flatpak applications. Not to mention the flatpak package contains a four ".service." files, too.

They might not be triggered and launched all the time, but this mode of operation is different from .appimage files, which are just ordinary binary files you directly run.

What century is this? Most people would probably think it a bit ridiculous to spend $40-50k a year trying to prevent kids from being "of the world" or "ending up silly". Even as someone who went to a private university, these are not good reasons to do so.

I'd also be interested in any evidence in the supposed downturn among elite universities - last I saw they are still quite effective at putting graduates into the highest echelons of government and industry. Even the supposedly more iconoclast industries like tech are largely inhabited by graduates of top schools.
The issue seems to be the lack of data modeling interest/knowledge of users. ChatGPT could be trained on the schema and so be able to map user's plain english to api calls. So minimally the front-end could be GPT -> api-encoder -> api-call.
And the quite capable computers that do things like being controllers for your hard drive, or wifi or other devices on your "computer" ?

A relevant example is this article "Evil never sleeps" https://arxiv.org/abs/2205.06114 about the ability of those "secondary computers" to function without the cooperation of the primary computer, in this case the iPhone where they even work (sometimes maliciously) while the main device is "turned off".

When your app is really 50 microservices, or one really big monolith, there's no great way to run it locally. And if you have one single job that takes up more RAM than you have, or requires tons of parallel CPU, the laptop is a bottleneck. And heaven forbid your corporate overlords saddle you with horrible virus-scanning crap or mandatory HTTP proxies with custom certs...

A lot of this will be solved if the people making our OSes ever decide to build a real distributed OS (either SSI or something more like P9). The OS is supposed to make programs easier. Why we keep trying to reinvent the wheel inside every application, and tie them together with duct tape, I don't know.
Keepass XC works only on desktop systems. I need mobile. Indeed, when I used only a desktop system, I was happy to keep my passwords in a text file and use Awk in the terminal to retrieve them.
This seems like a massive amount of work and frustration instead of admitting that mono repo doesn't work and scrapping that.

Plus super frustrating to have somebody preconfigure your environment because they will inevitably get it wrong.

My wife and I don't watch a ton of tv, but even with our couple of streaming services one can see how the bill starts to creep towards what traditional cable costs. I can't imagine watching commercials ever again.

I still think the og (Hbo) has the winning combination.
The Manhattan Project cost $2 billion, equivalent to $23 billion in today’s dollars — for the entire project.

~$2 trillion was used to bailout big businesses. If money was properly accounted for, $2 trillion could fund approximately 87 Manhattan Projects simultaneously in today’s dollars.
This is a big security issue, because the operating system security model relies on assumptions that can be (and are) broken by these devices in ways that the OS can't control.

The appropriate model would be exactly the one described in the original article above - explicitly treat the computer as a network of devices, and have the OS on the main CPU acknowledge that it is effectively sending a message to e.g. RAM over a shared network that also contains multiple other devices, potentially untrusted.
> What is clear is that it was known that linking to Mastodon accounts was not allowed on Twitter, which is why PG, attempting to evade a ban, did not provide such a link.

The user avoided posting the link so that he would be compliant with the rules as the CEO interpreted them. Your expectation is for the user to avoid posting any content that runs against Twitter's financial interest, even if that content is compliant with the rules. That is not a reasonable expectation, and the unreasonableness of this expectation caused the backlash that led to the account being unsuspended.
I don't even understand what is being "extracted" in the first place. If I go and take coal, diamonds, fish, what-have-you: yeah, there's a problem here. But learning about people's cultures...? How is that even remotely similar to mining? Do they now have less culture to share amongst themselves because The White Man came and "extracted" some of it?

There was a story some months ago on HN about an anthropologist recording a dying language with just a few speakers left. They described just how eager many of the elderly people were to share their language and culture, glad their heritage wouldn't completely perish when they would. It's my experience most people are happy and willing to share their culture. Exceptions apply for some cultures, but the Nuxalk people here agreed to do the interviews, so I presume they were in the "happy to share" camp.

And all it takes is a few words: "do you mind of I record it?" Here she is making the decision for the indigenous people instead of empowering them to make their own decisions. I believe there is a word to describe that sort of thing...
I look forward to paying for value myself, instead of taking it from future subscribers.

The more money the streaming companies charge, the more they can spend on bigger productions.

Imagine the level of content you could produce if every subscriber paid $50?
Subscriptions are fine for services I can live without. The barrier to entry is lower than a full cost of the software and I can cancel the subscription whenever I want. This is to me a win-win situation.

I would absolutely reject a subscription for using my operating system though.

So yeah, subscriptions are fine but not for everything.
In a bout of blasphemy, I’d like to be slightly productive and learn something:

Not sure why NewtonScript rather Self. Self is the originator of prototype-based programming and differential inheritance (although the term differential programming was preferred). NewtonScript adopted them, as did JS and Io.
I have streamed my worksession with nomachine and I have used VS code remote. nomachine is really good, but I would still prefer to have a beefy enough machine.
Car MPG doesn’t account for the number of people in the car either, but the point is simply to be a consistent point of comparison.

Having big stickers with annual costs on them at point of sale is just as much about influencing manufacturers as consumers. Think about the steady improvement in refrigerator efficiency, it’s not that everyone compares these numbers it’s that more people do.

Someone being able to roughly find this out if they jump through some hoops isn’t particularly meaningful to the overall market. Someone building 1,000 homes however has to predict consumer behavior and looking obviously worst than the competition is never appealing.

I think you have to factor in the amount of technology (i.e. video review of technique, mocap, etc), training level, 'performance' programs (diet, additives, etc) and of course pay/background funds these athletes compete through. More time, more training, better stuff that many past athletes could only dream of.

In saying that, Messi is on another planet, with perhaps Pelé , Michael Jordan and Ayrton Senna...
>I basically pirate everything that requires a subscription now or us a FOSS alternative, even though there was a period of time where I would pay for software between when I was poor and had to pirate everything and now when I can afford to pay for subscriptions but the situation with lack of control over SaaS is so fucking untenable that I just can't.

Same and similar. I resurrected an old pc and re-installed som backed-up old software and it mostly worked...well!! Apart from that, I prefer portable, non-installable software. I got burned a couple of years ago - spent €100s on some music software, two months later it went to subscription, for some Reason.
I had occasion to listen to Kim Kommando once or twice back in the late '90s.

My impression at the time was that she didn't seem to actually know _that_ much about computers and software. But she knew which words to say so that she sounded competent to anyone who didn't know any better (which was almost everyone back then).

Presumably, she's had some time to brush up on things since then...
I have a lot of trouble understanding people on group calls. I wonder if something like this software could help me?
Bold of you to assume Elon Musk would be able to use ssh.
And that's before we get into the total system efficiency issues.
I know you are joking but Tesla had an entire team devoted to making sure Elon does not fuck up important things.

I believe it is well documented that critical personnel were hidden when he was visiting the factories to avoid getting them rage-fired
There was a period of about 8-10 years where I didn't think much about pirating content but recently I find myself leaning more towards the dark side because it is cheaper, quicker and more convenient.

The earlier days you can see it speeds you up a lot. The later days (such as today) you still want to wrap your own head around difficult computer science concepts so it is kind of useless.

Such measures will improve some stock and eliminate some stock, but won't produce new stock. So they drive up housing prices.
How do you run a job that requires 64GB of RAM and dies when you run out of memory? Or is very CPU intense and takes 3 days on your laptop? If you test it in CI, how long is the dev cycle waiting for your CI to run? What if every dev ends up with slightly different local env that creates different build deps, that turn into test differences? How do you connect the cloud stuff to the non-cloud stuff without running into yet more complexity trying to connect them together?

As a non-native English speaker I find this kind of efforts to outlaw some words in English language and replace them with others hostile to non-native English speakers. Speaking English is already hard enough and now I should also try to avoid this kind of woke minefield and perhaps I will be somehow punished because it is hard to remember what words should be avoided and how to express your thoughts without using the "wrong" words. And replacing single words with euphemistic multi word expression can make constructing sentences difficult.
Fusion is different: we know what we want it to do, but it's proving very difficult. It's a problem in search of a solution, unlike lasers which were (initially) a solution in search of a problem.

My theory is that MS never expected macOS to stop being OSX (version 10) and once Apple came out with MacOS 11, Microsoft had to follow suit.
>1. That would still be ridiculous.

How would it be ridiculous? A water leak in your flat is causing damage to the flat below yours, it's your duty to address this. If you do not address this, someone will in fact go to court and take control of your flat.

This is something that happens all the time in cases where compliance with specific performance orders seems unlikely.
I'd plug the thing into a switched wall socket!
The thing is it's not even necessarily cheaper or quicker but it is more convenient. Rather than a show being on one of half a dozen services you can have it all in one place, e.g. Plex, and you know it will always be there. Especially if you're starting a long running show that could be dropped from the service before you've finished.
Pardon me, but I don't think you get the big picture either. Chip industry is now seriously considering photonics based on-chip interconnect for better speed and efficiency [1][2]. However having this hybrid system of electronics and photonics required conversion overhead that's being lamented in the posted article. Ideally, having native photonics based computing and communication systems is going to be a game changer for better speed and efficiency since no conversion is necessary.

PDF documents have two main benefits. The entire document is a single file, and we know that old documents work.

I regularly read papers from 10 or 20 years ago and sometimes even ones from 30 years ago. The old PDF documents work without any major issues. I have much less confidence that future browsers will continue displaying old HTML documents laid out using then-obsolete techniques in a sane way on future hardware.
Sadly, piracy.

Unless I’m missing something devious hidden in the dense terseness, it seems every single execution of the REPL leaks memory (that call to `wd` in the print/execute loop mallocs memory but never frees it). I guess this was so much a proof-of-concept that Arthur Whitney thought even rudimentary memory management was unimportant.

It’s also amusing that he chooses to spell out “noun” and “verb” but nothing else. Maybe his brain got tired by that point and could no longer remember the meaning of so many single-letter variables and functions.
Thank you for the details.

Did they do that in the past? Or will they just invest more into anti-piracy lobbyism, that ocassionally busts some ex-pat server farm half way around the world?

One would demand active change and interest in the user, the other is easy scape goating. The ugly truth is, the state has no interest in preventing piracy. Piracy keeps the poor dormant and busy.
Piracy reduces other crime and works like paracetamol on societal problems.

Services trimming their libraries will certainly become more commonplace as they seek to cut costs and drive up profits. This will remove a giant reason to subscribe to them in the first place.

Compound this with ever more streaming services, and it is an easy bet people will turn back to piracy. In this case, I think it is an ease of access issue vs a cost issue. Having 3-4 streaming subs is still vastly cheaper than cable, but when shows start vanishing and libraries become smaller and smaller or filled with junk, people will look to alternatives.

These days, VPN's are cheap and it has never been easier or better to set up a media streaming app in your own home. I've seen one that automatically downloads shows and movies with no input from the user. That is the type of ease of use coupled with the notion that content will always be available is likely to be a draw for a lot of people.
Whenever I feel too tired to focus on something "productive" is when I clean the house, because most of my productive work involves thinking and most of the tidying/cleaning is a set of repetitive tasks that I can do on "autopilot" and so ironically I find it easier to carry them out when I'm too tired to get caught up thinking about software projects.

But the tricky part is remembering to nudge myself into starting tidying etc..
My experience is completely different. I haven't tried the oculus but I did play around with game development with the Vive 2 at university about 4(?) years ago. Maybe because it was room scale VR (eg you were physically walking around) but it was extremely good at immersing me to the point where memories of being inside (our rudimentary) game feel like memories of being in a space rather than memories of playing a game.

I think it's dumb to compare this to audiophile stuff with no proven benefit, it is a fundamentally different way of experiencing. The feeling of presence (as it is called in VR terms) is something that was really noticeable for me.

I suspect that maybe the immersion/presence just doesn't stick for certain people? I do know that I'm unusually good(?) at suspending disbelief and getting totally absorbed in media.
The term "slash fiction" is rooted in Star Trek too. Back in the 70's, a very popular fan-fiction subject was a Kirk/Spock romance (with other gay pairings popular as well). I believe it was mostly women who were into these stories.

Energy labels on a scale like that don’t really convert to costs in peoples minds very well. It also focuses on the upper end of the scale when most of the benefits come from removing the least efficient housing.

Cost however has a great way of ordering the scale because the biggest differences are also the most impactful differences.

I knew someone who even in the early 90s was supporting a stock control database he'd written on the Commodore PET that constructed queries in 6502 assembler from user input, and then loaded them onto the CPU in the drive which could then chunter away assembling output while the user-facing app continued to respond normally.
Pretty much "everyone" in the valley had large layoffs coming. Only Apple and Google have escaped it so far. This is a product of the stupid "grow unbounded" consensus that reigned there, not any idiocy unique to the companies.
