never mind but, yes simple .html, may do it but... also your page (to give an idea)

my question is about the 'around' guess i do not want to be hosted on a page with hm illegal stuff around... so can someone make a look-around, telling me who's next?

I want to thank you for another possibility to host something...

...but still can't open 'venoid' due to a 'lack-o-scripts'... (-;

Just for fun, I used ffmpeg's `minterpolate` (https://ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg-filters.html#minterpolate) feature to raise the framerate of my Mad Max 2 Road Warrior DVD from 24 to 100 fps. The results were interesting.

If you pause the video and step through one frame at a time, it's very clear which frames are from the original film and which frames were conjured by the algorithm. There's no AI involved, so the algorithm doesn't really understand background from foreground, and objects in the artificial frames are distorted and unnatural. But at 100 fps you don't notice this, or at least I didn't, and motion seemed very smooth and fluid.

The soap opera effect definitely held. It didn't feel like watching a classic movie from 1982, it felt much more like watching a contemporary reality TV program. There was definitely a sense of realism, but the realism was not that you're witnessing an actual post-apocalyptic society clinging to survival. It was realistic in the sense that you felt like you're on a film set, and if you could just peek outside the frame you'd see George Miller and the camera and microphone operators with the lighting and rigging and make-up and costume departments hanging around the catering truck.

A lot of people felt that HFR ruined Peter Jackson's The Hobbit series (or was one of the many contributing factors) because it broke the pretense of fantasy. In my experience raising the frame rate did the same for The Road Warrior. Those outlandish costumes looked even sillier at 100 fps, but man those stunts are incredible! You do get a visceral sense of just how dangerous a lot of those stunts are. It's a miracle that nobody was killed.
You missed the science types: paleontology Twitter was a thing, for example.

I quit Twitter because I realized my valuable Intellectual Property was going towards enriching Twitter shareholders. Any Twitter replacement must address that problem, otherwise people will hold back anything other than throwaway memes and rubbish

And this does two kinds of damage. Some kids will end up actually becoming vulnerable to things they otherwise wouldn't - this is just needlessly increasing the sum total of suffering in the world. But some other kids will figure out the same thing people pushing for and enforcing such lists have: that this gives them power over others.
Because I suspect that under focused analysis the signal won’t quite look like cosmic radiation background.
Now I also haven’t done the analysis, but information, and entropy are funny things. Will they get to watch a human TV show ? Hell no. Would it look “random” versus showing that it once contained some structured information ? I think that’s a very open question.
There are probably more serious papers that deal with the matter and how long and far “techno-signatures” survive in the noise.
> NOT pay monthly to someone.

You pay your internet and electricity, no?
I think we need to ask ourselves what we're testing and why.

An untimed at-home test has very little value to me, because it's unlike anything you would ever be asked to do for work. And let's not forget the real reason we have schools is to prepare us for work.

Never in my entire career have I been sent home to work on something without a deadline. It's always "get this done by noon from your desk".

What we SHOULD be testing is people's abilities to find answers, not memorize them. I want someone with amazing Google skills. Because Google knows far more than any one person could ever hope to even scratch the surface of.

We need to think about the Internet and computers as tools. We wouldn't ask a carpenter to build a house with nails and a hammer and a saw (etc). Not even on a test, just to see if he could do it. Tradespeople are trained with their tools in hand.

For knowledge workers, the Internet is our biggest tool. AI is a tool. If I was a teacher, I'd want to test my students on their ability to make the most of the tools at their disposal, not how they perform in artificially constrained scenarios.

EDIT: I could imagine some exceptions that prove the rule. For example, a surgeon should know everything they need to know, because they can't just pull out a phone and Google it when they're elbows deep inside of someone. But to me this proves the rule, because it's about a real world application: If you're testing prospective surgeons, make sure they only have access to the information and tools they would have on the job.
> But it does mean something to some ppl, and some of these ppl do notice it being said or avoided

Yes, but that is very context-dependent. The rule of thumb is “don’t be stupid” and “don’t be a dick” (yes, offensive to eunuchs and people who think this excludes women; in which case replace with “twat”). The words you need to avoid to that effect depend on who you’re talking to and in which circumstances. Blanket bans based on lists of words someone is crusading against are counter-productive.

> And after hearing that from someone you care about

The first time can just be a mistake; people you care about do not have the exact same mindset you have. In that case, a short explanation should suffice, without implying malice. If it is a pattern, then the people you care about don’t care as much about you.

OTOH, it is unreasonable to expect a random stranger on the Internet to be aware of your sensitivities.
In theory, yes, but it's known that these gangs who do platform manipulation somehow acquire SIM cards in bulk to register accounts en masse. And that costs money.
The last vote had 17 mil votes. If I were Russia or China, I would gladly pay 150 mil if I could steer Twitter into a direction I want.

> I don't really buy this argument that you can rent and pay $1000/month, or you can buy an equivalent home and pay $1000/month, but now you can deduct interest rate and build equity.

Back in 2013 I was renting an apartment for $1600/month, but my dad made me do the math and I ended up buying a condo about 10 minutes walk away, larger and far higher quality everything and the mortgage was only around $800/month. Even with the monthly assessment fee (for the management company to handle the property and facilities) it was lower than what I was renting for. Just had to get over the down-payment hump.
That sounds like a scummy tactic to dismiss someone's argument based on their choice of words. I'm so glad debating isn't a thing much.

Show HN: Eventful, a social app for meeting people (IRL, IRL)
I love meeting new people. Eventful was born after trying to figure out how to make the right people meet each other.

The way it works is by being a very good invitation accountant. A host organizes an event, then defines how deep of an invitee can invite. When people you invite can also invite, they bring new, great people that they think will like the event.

Eventful makes sure not to prevent over-attendance and manage a wait list. Things that are impossible to do manually using the old ways of event hosting.

This creates an event of people who have a high chance of liking one another, creating new friendships and who knows, even more than that.
Not fully agreeing with parent, so it's more adressing directly your comment.

In casual conversation with people you have the context on, it's probably fine.

As a wording for official documents and dispkay that will sit prominently on public/semi-public places it might have wider effects: some people might not want to use it because of the naming, while it was set aside for them. Some people will be more aggressive towards user of this space if they feel they don't deserve it (not visibly handicapped enough) etc.

Signaling disabilities or special conditions is a real minefield to navigate properly. And thing is, you're putting time and effort yo have the widest acceptance possible, so what people think is kinda central.
No, it isn't dependent children but dependents...very big distinction in practice.

Being financially self-sufficient makes no difference because they are still using more resources. We aren't selling citizenship like St Kitts, it isn't a car boot sale.

What hostile environment? Every other country in Europe is deporting Albanians, we can't. Denmark is returning Syrians, we can't. If your visa expires, there are ways to claim right to remain if you are already here.

Okay, and that is why I gave the gross number...which is the highest number ever. And again, the evidence suggests that the UK is retaining more students than expected now (it was the opposite a few years ago).
That's interesting to me, since teenagers were really the only ones who ever used it. It's not just the subtext, since everybody says "idiot" and "moron". But I have a hard time imagining an f-bomb-throwing 50-year-old casually saying "retard" after a meeting or something like that.
It's also 0.37kg (0.77lbs) heavier, which is almost +40%.

I've used the Pi (both a 3 and 4) as a temporary server when moving (read: leave the old server up at home until move-day, while placing a Pi in the new home, configured to take the www load normally pointed at my old server. I'm hosting 14 sites from home, none of which are high traffic, but under those circumstances, the Pi held up just fine. Once move-day comes, I'd make the DNS change to point at the new Pi, pack my stuff, move, then reverse that process once I've brought the old server back online.

I'd say unless your web app is resource-hungry, the Pi is totally viable as an option.

... at the end of the day, HN comment might not be the place to explain the theory and history of animation from late 18th to early 21st century, it just don't seem to make sense to do so to me. Maybe some of [0] or [1] explains why frame interpolation for animations is a bad idea(even for some of CGI animations), if they don't, I just don't have words for that right now.

Mastodon is not an “open garden” and can easily, if not more easily, be as arbitrarily administered as any of the social media platforms you’ve mentioned. Each servers admin can and have cut off access to other nodes.

> my maths skills are lacking

The majority of computer programmers do not use or know any math beyond the high school level. Math is great and I won't discourage you from learning it but for an entry level programming job it's 100% unnecessary.

> The Art of Computer Programming

It's really weird to me that you've even tried this book. Despite the name it's a really serious computer science text that would be struggle even for students with a graduate level knowledge of computer science and mathematics. I would not expect you to get anything out of it right now.

What exactly is your level of programming knowledge? Can you write a function that prints a string in python, what about a function that determines if a string is a palindrome? Figure out where you are and then work on getting to the next level.

> I feel like everyone but me can sort of 'see' the code in a sort of 'logical' engineering kind of way and that's the skill I'd like to develop.

You might be expecting too much, too quickly. This is an ability that just takes tons of repetitions to develop. You need to struggle with bugs and errors for 1000+ hours to get anywhere. Intuition comes from practice, not reading or lectures.
I like APL (and k/j). Problem is, outside trading (and even there it's a niche), it is just not popular enough. This also because most people dismiss it as line noise / write only programming language; that's usually only people who never used it or used it briefly saying that. But it's hard to promote anything that has a reputation like that.

What is a fairly interesting observation (more people have made it, including Arthur Whitney); being able to reason about a program for which you can see all the code on one A4 without having to clickthrough into functions, search, browse through files, classes or even having to scroll is incredibly powerful. All you need is the cheatsheet (provided in your article) (which you know by heart in no time flat) and the program, which, often fits on 1 A4 or less. Modern example of that would be Aaron Hsu his 17 LoC parallel APL compiler[0] (from his thesis).

Wait a second, the requirement of a government to get a sim card is kinda standard practice in multiple countries. Also, when it comes to privacy, US based companies must be last ones to talk, like as if China is the only bad guy who infringes upon peoples right to privacy.
China is dangerous, but it's not the only dangerous thing in the room.
Also, your comment doesn't make sense. If you are committing your public credentials while diseenting against the government, you are doing it wrong.
Also, any publicly committed credentials are like literally tracked by thousands of both within minutes. Its not like if China really want to scan them, they can't do it without Github telling them they found something.
They're just words. They are incapable of causing discomfort absent some context in which they are used.

It's crazy how much hardware has improved since streetview was launched.

Buy an Insta 360, mount it to a car with a selfie stick. Drive around, set the camera to take a snapshot once a second. Dump images to S3, extract exif to DB, display on top of an open streets map.

You'll have to navigate using clicking on a map. With a bit of extra work, create a linked list of the images, then display buttons on each image for prev/next.

That's the "Tier 1 (entrepreneur) visa".

Without taking away from your first paragraph at all, if any dissidents are publishing their access codes to GitHub repos, they are 1) doing it completely wrong and 2) are already screwed.

If something visits us from another star system it's also likely to be an AI.

Hibernation for thousands of years to travel between stars would be almost trivial for machine intelligence. Just turn yourself off. It'd be easy to tie this directly to solar power. Have an array of solar panels that powers you near a star and in interstellar space you just naturally go to sleep. When you approach the next star system the light generates power and wakes you up.

Star travel is easy if you don't have a fixed life span or are able to just deactivate. No need for crazy physicists' nightmare propulsion systems to travel close to the speed of light or wormholes or any of that far-out stuff. Chemical propulsion will do just fine.

For humans or any other biological entities to travel between stars they'd need to be able to basically die and be resurrected like tardigrades. We can imagine an alien biology that would make this easier, but for humans we have no idea how to do this and survive.
I'm so glad to hear that your primary concern around immigration is the impact on other countries.

Good news! It turns out that while your thesis sounds reasonable it is in fact not the case.

Here in the US our two largest immigrant groups are people from Indian and China. It turns out that both of these countries seemed to have benefit greatly from the exchange. While many very talented migrants have chosen to remain in the US, a sizable number of taken the skills and experience they've learned here and brought them back to their home countries.

Not only that but during our period of highest immigration, salaries from those very companies hiring the most migrant workers were some of the highest in the world, much higher than typically seen in, for example, the UK. At the same time we've also seen salaries rise in India and China.

I'm guessing on seeing that your theoretical concerns don't pan out in the real world you'll likely change your stance on the issue. If not that there must be some other logic I'm missing that is guiding your opinions on the topic.
Scanning repos for secrets has been a thing for a while now. But seeing Tencent might put people on edge.

This whole movement is just about control and power over other people - from people who have no control in their life and desperately want it. If they tell you that you cant say a word, and you abide, it gives them power over you and that stokes their ego. Its the same with pronouns. Its just an avenue to bully people and tell them what to do. At first it was somewhat reasonable, and now its just hijacked by selfish people who are making the whole thing crazier every day.

> The sad thing is such smartcards do exist, you're just not allowed to have them because they're all locked behind NDAs (e.g. the ST32 line - not to be confused with the popular STM32 microcontrollers by the same company). These typically feature a 32-bit ARM core and flash, and are used for bank cards and so on. And you can't have one.

Actually, you can. German company ZeitControl sells cards you can program on your own in a BASIC dialect [1]. Been years since I last played around with my set, but they're still well in business.
