That's basically kind of how it is with a lot of night clubs in the US as well, just with a different demographic criteria (i.e., not race).

If you come as a group of guys (or, most of the time, even as a mixed men/women group), you will be waiting in a long line at the entrance before you get in. Oftentimes, 45+ min wait, if the club is busy that night and popular.

But if you come as a group of attractive women (or, sometimes, a mixed group of attractive women and some guys, but with no more guys than women), clubs will often take you out of the massive line and let you through without almost any wait at all.

Not blaming the clubs for doing this, it kinda makes sense for their business, given the establishment type, so it doesn't feel that wrong (but i understand it is just my personal subjective take, and is very debatable).

Doing it by race (or foreigner/non-foreigner designation) though, like what your comment had described, for some reason to me feels actually awful and wrong to do though.

Holy cow. I'm in Austin. There a some lagging gas stations, but it is easy to get regular 87 gas for $2.45/gallon. The lowest price I've seen (cash price, not needing a membership card) is $2.37/gallon. It has been below $4 for a long time.
What are you going to recommend? I’m leery of just moving to another cloud provider.

Mail-in-a-box is seriously awesome. I was super impressed by how easy it maid emauk hosting for me after hear all the FUD about housing your own email.

My suggestion is to get a new domain and then try it with that. Once everything works, and your IP reputation is in the clear, you can port your other email domains as well.
Disclaimer: I have been a software developer, a product marketing manager, a co-founder, and most recently a senior product manager and people manager at one of the big cloud companies.

The question you pose is (no offense) somewhat nonsensical. If a computer could write its own code, what is the need for programmers? :)

The biggest value add for a product manager that I’ve seen is at the strategic level. Assessing the market conditions, being an expert in the broader space, and having a pulse on where the industry is headed. While I do get pulled into design discussions, I’d rather not, but that comes from our designers & researchers not having enough technical depth to fully create experiences and insights for the developer audience (I create cloud services for developers).

We had an interesting case recently where we rolled out a new service that isn’t seeing traction over the past year. Big investment, was initially led and kicked off by our engineering team. However, if you were to have examined the fundamental value props of the service and who this tool was valuable for earlier on in its lifecycle, some fundamental flaws in the assumptions would have popped up. Does this mean that those tech leads and engineers were “bad” at their job, or did they just not have the skill set necessary to assess the value of what they were building? Note: a research study was also done prior to building the product, which clearly missed key gaps and analyses.

How many tools should be in a single person’s toolkit? If they had involved a (good) product manager earlier on in that lifecycle, much of the current pain could have been avoided. As somebody who is currently running a side company, I wish I could hire only “jacks of all trades”, but those people are incredibly uncommon. Most people self-select into a strength and lean into that. Thus, divisions of roles are born.

Hubble could have been done without the Shuttle, and for a small fraction of the > $200B cost of the entire Shuttle program. This is true even if multiple Hubbles would have had to have been launched in lieu of repair missions (and making a series of them would have accrued considerable economic benefit from economies of scale and experience.)
Anything that you both see happening. For example commenting on a cute dog passing by is a great conversation starter because everyone likes cute animals but everyone has a different opinion on what makes them cute.

Some people will go for your conversational hook and jump in. Others will ignore you. That's just life and normal, don't worry about it.

If someone joins your conversation, be sure to give them plenty of space and time to talk themselves. Most people who feel shy make the mistake of filing every conversational gap and every silent minute. But that other person maybe just needs a moment to remember a funny story to tell you.
He makes the assumption that aliens wouldn't have their own seemingly-arbitrary date and time system. Honestly it's biased for a "everyone but humans are entirely logical and never deviated" viewpoint that cheap (bad) sci-fi goes for.

Honestly this is a really boneheaded take. Ignorant people maybe don't realize that, historically, journalists were widely considered to be low status scribblers and political hacks. The hagiographic efforts of the profession notwithstanding, many people still see them that way (for good reasons). Got news for you, mate, the real world IS journalists barking at each other on the internet, defining discourse, eroding civic society. Folks like you will eventually see it, too, when the journalists say it's safe and acceptable to see it.

I think this misses the point. With Fastmail, if they mess up, I can still talk to a human. With Gmail there is no customer support to begin with so you're screwed whenever something goes wrong.

...yet.

My allergy to mustard used to barely register. It still scores near the bottom on my skin prick and IgE blood tests. And yet, over the past few months, it's evolved where if I'm even in the same room as someone eating mustard, I begin to go into anaphylaxis. Food allergies are absolutely absurd and you can't trust them to stay the same.
Tesla calls it FSD, not "Nominal FSD".

To nitpick your metaphor further: A 2x4 plank starts off as 2" by 4", and it is shaved down to 1.5 x 3.5 side to straighten it out. A Tesla "FSD" car has never been in its life fully self driving.
This is kind of scary, it seems they’re trying to use black box Ai/ml for parking where a simple PID controller would do excellent given an input of a target box and current location.
Musk said that by 2020 there would be a million robotaxis on the road. To say that anyone who bought it thinking that FSD wasn’t real is a very, very stupid statement.
In the United States, there is case law[1] establishing that an exact replica of artwork that is itself in public domain is not eligible for copyright protection, because "originality" is a necessary element for copyright protection to exist. Works that lack any originality are therefore public domain even if they require effort or technical skill to produce, such as photographing a public domain painting, or presumably scanning a public domain bust.

Is there any similar law or regulation in Germany?

> Nearest X place" is a task for map apps, not broad Web search.

Why? I have a big search bar and I dump everything into it. That’s the reality of how I search the web.

Every search engine worth its weight has an integrated mapping feature and it will punt you to a map for certain queries.

I tried chatGPT for restaurants and it made up places. I personally don’t need it to be a concierge telling me about places appropriate for certain occasions (although that would be useful to many i admit) when I can’t trust the results anyways. Fool me once… and I fall back to Google because I don’t have patience to be fooled twice.

> restaurant reviews in general are problematic.

Not related to chatGPT but I think everyone gets this wrong. Yelp et al are good for auditing a restaurant selection, but are terrible for searching. I find that those listicles from major publications that list “Best X in $Location” are great for discovering if you don’t want to walk around and actually look at storefronts. So I think there is trustworthy (enough) review sources, but the ML models can’t know that.
> Just think about it - what happens when everyone has a self driving car? All of those cars that are otherwise parked are now on the road.

Why would that be the case?

I would keep my self-driving car the same place I keep my normal car now. Why would it be driving around when I’m not in it? That would waste electricity. It would drive me somewhere, park, and wait — just like I do with my current car.
An open source product I use is maintained by Russian devs. When Russia invaded Ukraine, they inserted code that caused the end user to see pop ups with the message “Stop the War in Ukraine.”

I’m not judging their actions. But it took us time to change the code to prevent this behavior.

For front line devs, the answer is to be aware of potential problems and react only when they occur.

Policy makers and security services need to be more proactive, but they shouldn’t be asking Hacker News.
That's some painful projection.

Best of luck on your trials.

Uber predicted it was just a few years away in 2016.[1]

Google's Sergey Brin predicted driverless cars by 2017.[2]

BMW predicted we'd have driverless cars by 2020.[3]

Supposedly sober industry analysts predicted 2019.[4]

It's also worth pointing out that many of Elon's predictions were not predictions of a finished product, but rather predicting when Tesla would have a system "capable" of self driving, not necessarily a system capable of driving consistently and reliably. (In much the same way, I am capable of hitting a target with a crossbow, but not consistently and reliably.)

To be clear, I'm not defending Musk's predictions, only pointing out that such predictions were widespread and Musk was just one of many, many, many people who turned out to be wrong.

Mail in a Box just does this as part of its natural installation. It works with a conventional DNS server but, if you point the domain at its internal one, new email accounts in new domains are up and running automatically.

I agree with the other commenter that running BIND is not too difficult but, if you are going to run a server, MIAB is a good way to kill both birds, mail and DNS.

Also, the MIAB DNS UI is good.
I appreciate that a lot, thank you!
A key reason docker became as popular as it is and thus contributions from the open source community was that the clients were free.

Really we should blame all the executive administrations for not forcing the DEA to do their job properly. Keeping cannabis as a Schedule 1 is completely scientifically unjustified. There was already an existing legal framework available to legalize the drug. But since the DEA/FDA is so corrupt, we have to fall back to checks & balances available in the states and Congress.

Your note about local services is super important. Local lawyers, accountants, banks and suppliers. People who understand the land, the crop, the challenges and all that.

The problem is, most people don’t sit around and look at numbers to make decisions. They directly look at what impacts them and what’s happening around them and change their habits. These habits make the recession almost self fulfilling.

Even if inflation is falling faster than most people know, the way fed has played is hand is going to be devastating. Stock market has been destroyed. Stock market != economy is not true in this case. Most people’s savings are tied in the market one way or the other (401k, pensions, actual investments etc.). People who don’t have savings or have any form of debt have their debt have its interest go through the roof. People are losing jobs at the highest level of the economy, which will trickle down as the rich and the upper middle class downsizes its spending. Housing prices won’t go down because the supply/demand dynamics are still terrible in most places where people want to live. And people who bought at inflated rates are not selling anytime soon unless they absolutely have to.
Fun list! Other things I'd recommend trying:

Huffman coding

Let's be realistic here, your only option is to sell it.

Recap the facts:

- You've confirmed you have no experience ("I have no experience in this at all")
- You've confirmed your dad had no experience ("nor did he") ... so how do you know it's "good" land, or you dad did a good job until now ? Are you sure there are no "skeletons in the cupboard" ?
- You haven't got long ("around 2026"), we're entering 2023 now, 3 years will fly by. You have no experience, you have no coffee bean buyers lined up (in what is a very competitive market).
- Remember you are also taking on MORE financial risk by continuing because you will doubtless be required to incur CAPEX and OPEX expenses. So not only could it become a mental headache for you, but it could easily become a financial blackhole too.

You could lease it out, but do you HONESTLY (a) want the headache of managing tenants, legal contracts, collecting rent and all that jazz (b) have enough experience to make sure you are not getting screwed and your tenants treating the land well ?
What product are you using now?
One of the true innovations coming from progressive authoritarian academics is the “words are violence” dogma. Intolerance must be eradicated; we must punch nazis. Who is a nazi? Anyone who doesn’t fully embrace our tolerant progressive authoritarianism and its postmodernist crusade against white colonizers. These heretics must be identified and eliminated.

This same principle applies to code. Code is just a form of language and nazis want to use language to do all sorts of problematic stuff like pretend that “Western Culture” is a thing. Any code written by nazis must be deleted.

If you use any code written by Russian nazis who intolerantly fight Ukrainian neo-nazis or genocidal Chinese nazis who mass murder Islamists, then you are a nazi. Burn your laptop, burn To Kill a Mockingbird, burn intolerance and help usher in a new era of authoritarianism where the authoritarians support our warped world view now, so surely they will continue to always act in our interests once we’ve fully eliminated our heteronormative patriarchal “Constitutional Democracy” (which was incidentally drafted by slave-owning nazis)

When apple has a $5k iPhone it may once again become a status symbol.

Almost 50% of Americans have an iPhone of some version. It’s obviously not a status symbol of everyone has one. iPhones, like cars, are mostly undifferentiated.

Apple has a lot of room to build a status symbol, but admittedly they haven’t been too successful when trying with the Apple Watch, so I will admit the odds are low they’ll succeed, but I believe the market exists in the long run.
A random observation à la Seinfeld is always good.
The fact that either the Republicans or the Democrats can influence the SCOTUS is worrying in itself.

Justice mixed with partisanship is incredibly dangerous to democracy.
That's the best you can do though. Politics is only one way to slice the problem. People can act maliciously for lots of other reasons you may not know about or expect, up to the totally random "this person was trustworthy until they got paid $$$$ to not be".

There’s a tipping point where the hype becomes excessive or even fraudulent.

Nice read. I wouldn’t have minded more technical details about the implementation and challenges, but that’s probably because I’ve had to write generic SVGA drivers to support generic graphics cards before. (I’m not clear on what was the more convenient alternative to VMs that the author ended up using, though?)

Side-bar but still on-topic: It really irks me to no end that Windows 3.x and Windows 95 could get a fairly hardware-agnostic (fallback) software-rendered GUI fully up and running and exposed to user space in the early 90s and even today Linux/BSD can’t manage that (even just in SVGA mode) without vendor specific drivers. Xfree86 and then Xorg with the fb driver were attempts at doing the same but I can attest they never achieved that same universality. I had hoped EFI fb could finally give us the same for modern PCs but the chances of open source efifb drivers in userland working on a chipset/implementation they haven’t been tested against are a real crapshoot.

I had “success” (compared to the status quo, not compared to the situation on Windows) writing X drivers that wrote to the kernel framebuffer but that broke when everything was rewritten or deprecated in order to support EFI. Even then, the support for listing supported modes and changing to them was very poor (which make sense given how little serious use the kernel frame buffer sees), never mind figuring out what modes intersected with those the display supported. Laptops with integrated plus discrete graphics cards (or desktop motherboards with the same) were also problematic for various reasons.
It's a custom VM running inside their app, though calling it a VM might be a bit of a stretch because it doesn't appear to be a general purpose computing mechanism but more of higher level command processor.

It sounds like the forthcoming part 2 article will go into more depth.
