Heh, I was on the fence here but you single-handedly convinced me that this startup is good and justified, and should continue. Naomi Klein is all but openly using climate to advance her unrelated political agenda. She and the likes of her are anti-nuclear for the same reason, and their predecessors in the movement might be some of the main culprits of climate change, by helping bog down nuclear for 50 years. Not to mention indirectly helping prop up dictators from MBS to Putin.

Saying she is the best argument against something is to me like saying ISIS and Breitbart released a join resolution against something. About as strong argument-from-authority for that-thing as one can make.
Well, yeah, they want specific meteorites for research. I meant in general do they care about collecting the vast majority of them that fall on the earth?
"User friendly, clickable in the browser, api urls" seems like... a made-up user requirement? Have they nailed their product so well that this is the highest value work outstanding? There's some neat technical details in there but to me this is the definition of engineering procrastination.
On a related note, I started purchasing CD's again - not because I play them on a CD player (though I did also get one of those for my living room audio setup) - but because they are easy to rip at full quality and upload to plex. Now I have a huge collection of HD music that I own completely, with physical backup, for pennies on the dollar
On youtube, Notjustbikes states that mixed commercial/residential areas solve most transportation problems. Living in such an area, I absolutely concur.
The Great Southwest Meltdown of 2022
Let's make a movie, call it "Meteor" and we can have Jodi Foster star.
Yeah, I tend to run at 97.5 normally and 98.6 usually comes with some aches and pains and a slight feverish feeling that I suspect is an abortive infection (tend to get those 1-3 times a year in the fall/winter, although I didn't at all throughout the 20/21 fall/winter). "I have a normal temperature so I kinda feel half like ass and think I'm going to stay home today"
On the flip side, most of these meteorites would go I found if there wasn’t motivation to collect them. It might not be so bad
Is it not all just an attempt at re-branding to avoid the stigma attached to the labels? A subgroup turned “vegan” into a culture and now the word is broken for use as an objective descriptor.
I like how US federal overtime laws specifically exclude agricultural workers.

I cannot imagine any reasoning to do this other than to take advantage of farm workers that are poor and probably do not know English.

So politically, the nation wanted people to have a minimum, albeit pathetic, pay to quality of life at work ratio. But even then, it was okay to explicitly screw at least one tribe of people. And entering 2023, there is still no political impetus to fix this.
It's not a group that's like this, it's a widely distributed human behavior (I'm not quite cynical enough to call it a universal human behavior although some would.)
> Windows 11 isn't really good, and cracked software gets no support

Microsoft does not care anymore. You can use no product key, and you only lose some stuff in the "Personalize" menu and have a watermark. It will get Windows updates still.

LTT video showing it https://youtu.be/M3bezYerYxQ?t=474

or just crack it as you say. Cracked using massgrave activator gets Windows updates just fine. I use it in a VM.
The Rise and Fall of Aim, the Breakthrough AOL Never Wanted (2014)
I've been checking ebooks out of the library and stripping the DRM from them. That gives me the best experience with minimal hassle, and I can use Calibre to customize the format to what works best for my e-ink devices.

Sometimes I have to wait a few weeks in a queue because the library has a license for a limited number of copies to be "loaned" out at once, but I have a backlog longer than I have time to read what I already have. I figure the publishers get paid the same whether I read the book during the time I have it checked out, whether I scan my ebook reader page-by-page, whether I do absolutely nothing with the digital file and let the loan period expire (probably happens all the time with other patrons), or whether I strip the DRM and keep the epub file around until I get around to reading it later.

The act of checking out the ebook from the library signals demand and leads to my tax dollars and local library donations (yes, I do in fact donate to my local library) being allocated toward the publishers of those books.

I've heard there are pirate web sites that host pre-stripped epub files, but I don't want my IP address logged or tracked with pirate sites, I don't want the hassle of a VPN just for the occasional ebook, and I want my taxes and donations to veer toward the publishers of the books that I prefer to read.
Good article I would still prefer that they would put the 3nm in quotation marks.As great as the advancements of TSMC were over the last decade their naming scheme is anything but and it's also not in relation to their actual node size anymore.
They weren't talking about FLOSS here. They weren't talking about free or proprietary software, they wanted no software

> Personally, I prefer no computer control.

They're not arguing for free software controlling their car, they're arguing for no software controlling the car. No software controlling the car means generally less safe cars with higher emissions on the road. Higher emissions hurt the people around them. Not having common safety systems like ABS and traction control make the cars harder to operate on normal roadways, leading to a higher likelihood of collisions.

They're arguing they should be free to operate less-safe cars which emit higher emissions on public roadways, and that everyone around should just accept it. Arguing otherwise is arguing for an authoritarian socialist dystopia.
Co-sleeping and SIDS data is highly mangled.

I will not trust medicine on this. It's just too vague and enough babies have been killed because "sleeping face down is better".

If one of the strongest parental instinct is sleeping with your baby, I'll trust mother nature this time.

Sorry, I'm particularly bitter about this. We have been pushed away from Co-sleeping due to poor education and when we did, we got from 2 hours of sleep per week to 8 hours per day, and a lot more cuddles.
> People who love remote work seem to be senior, well established employees who were already fully ramped up and had a social foundation in SV before the pandemic. I left my entire life behind after college to relocate to SV

The other ones who love it are the vast sea of workers who chose to stay near family and friends rather than leaving to chase money in expensive coastal cities. Not being constrained to 3rd-tier-landlocked-city rates is great.

[EDIT] Ah, you mean specifically the ones already in (or recently-late-of) SV who love it. I'll leave the comment but it's less-on-topic than I thought on my first reading.

Yeah, I assumed this one was a DOS game created recently by OP, like those people creating new games for old platforms (e.g. GB Studio for Game Boy Games)

I think I have lost count at how many security issues and breaches people have tolerated with LastPass to realise that enough is enough.

By just searching "LastPass" it is almost always a security breach or hack. [0]

This also makes for very expensive SRAM (paying for cutting edge 3nm pricing but only getting 5nm product). AMD is ahead of the curve here with their 3D cache, but that only helps L3+.
I understand what you are implying. Elon Musk has aligned himself with what appears to be a power structure that aims to replace the current dominant social order. If a social revolution comes due to war, economic restructuring or some other black swan event and The Daily Wire becomes the new CNN and Saturday Night Live skits come straight from The Babylon Bee, yes, the crowd that sees Teslas as toxic will be marginalized.

We'll see if that comes to pass. I'm guessing it won't, but if it does I'll adjust accordingly to the new reality as will we all.
Where's the sound? This game needs to be played with the original sound.

> What is the point of using an RPi for heavier compute, and not something like ODroid [1] [2] or a beefier Orange Pi [3]?

I have an Odroid XU-3 as well, and intend to buy some more Odroids also. But this thread is specifically about RPi and I still want more RPis because they have a much much bigger community than anything else :)
ULIDs and Primary Keys
It appears that in this case, litigation is avoidable. The project would be purposely engaging in a legal battle at their communities dime over some names.
Same here. However we discovered that the windows service "messenger" had to be re-enabled on the target machine to make this work again. So we'd sneak into a gullible person's computer, log in (each one of us was an admin, yay!), run "net start messenger" and were back in action!
If only the world were made up of more free thinking people like you. Seems like these days everything has to fit into either a blue or red box. Ugh.
We used to do this in high school all the time.

The other thing we did was access network shares which you could see, but if you tried clicking them in explorer they'd say "access denied". The administrator apparently didn't lock things down very hard so a two-line .bat file:

@echo off
net use Z: \\administrators

Would get us access to all sorts of crazy stuff.
The only punching down happening is the media campaign against the man. He's still solidly for saving the planet and that hasn't changed. He just sees that there's now additional existential risks that are looking to prevent him from doing that coming from the political side because they're gaining control of the means of communication. This is his attempt to fight back against such forces that are much larger than himself.
The post looks a bit weird on first sight: "I always knew LastPass has a ton of flaws, but promoted it anyway".

This may make sense though. LastPass seemed to be the only one with a good enough UX. And without a good enough UX, you can't make users actually use it. Using an imperfect but usable password manager is still much better than not using one with better security but poor UX.

(Here comes the old adage: make the friction low for the customer, and any shortcomings elsewhere will matter little.)
Choosing ID strategy is one of those early architecture decisions that has to be done upfront and that can give a lot of headache later if the choice was wrong. So I wouldn't call it procrastination if it's made before starting development. To change it later in the process, just for vanity purposes, would certainly be risking wasting time on the wrong thing.
When I was studying Norse mythology (for fun, not academically) I read that even though Scandinavians were in close contact with Romans, Greeks, Arabs and even Indians via trading routes, they didn't really commit too much to writing. They had runic inscriptions on stones and gold, but that's kinda it. They only really took to writing after they converted to Christianity, which is why we have stuff like Snorri Sturluson's Eddas.

They do mention that after 32nm they name of the process node is meaningless.
You don't own the text, but you do own the manifestation of the text as a physical book. Sure the text doesn't magical stay with you after a fire burns down your house (like all other items in your house) and it isn't eternal (like all other things aren't) but as long as you don't damage the item you own, it has value: the text.

Weired argument to say that you don't own a thing because it can be damaged or fall apart. You own it even if it is damaged by the way. The paper shreds after the fire are still yours.
When I was in college I realized that they hadn't disabled net send with wildcards on the CS computer network. We all had individual logins.

One day I walk into my lab class and see that a poor soul forgot to logout of his session. I'm sitting with my lab group and explain this "net send *" macro that would send a message to every single account on the system.

Another person in my group says "I'll do it." He types it in and presses enter.

We log out of the account, then log into one of our accounts, see the message, laugh and move on.

The next week, I get to my lab and this kid walks in and says to my lab group member sitting in front of the computer "Can I speak to you outside?"

He goes outside and we think nothing of it, but then I hear my lab partner outside the door say in a raised tone "Look, I have no idea what you're talking about! Goodbye!" and he comes storming back in.

This lab partner was absent the week before and didn't know what had transpired. We ask, "What did that guy want?" He says, "Some BS about how he thinks I sent a message through his account to everyone on the network because he forgot to logout last week and now he's in trouble with the CS department because they think he did it."

Our jaws dropped and I think if he had spoken to anyone else in the group we probably would have laughed and he would have known it was us right away. I still wonder how much trouble he got in on our behalf for embarrassing the CS IT department. Didn't seem like that big a deal to me.
Are you aware of supabase? It's rather nice.
Here's a few options at different places in the spectrum for ease of UX vs. work required by the search engine:

Make search engines (appearing in that list) installable as apps.

Have search engine websites include some metadata about the API. When this metadata block is present, add a "make this site the default search engine" to the Safari menu.

Allow the user to enter an arbitrary URL with some substitutions.

I ran a team where myself and the TPM were local in SoCal, QA was remote in NorCal, and developers were in Texas, Chicago, Argentina, and the Netherlands. It worked surprisingly well but that boiled down to 80% having the right set of personalities.
Conversions from business to mixed or residential have happened so it's not an impossible thing either e.g. 70 Pine Street.

And while business buildings are not internally designed for 24/7 occupancy, their accesses are scoped for much higher occupancy as businesses tend to have denser occupancies than residential.

So most of the problem is the interior setting, which has to be retrofit anyway.

> Also, when some natural disaster hits and the city loses power? You can't go home. Your home is 50 floors up. Nobody is walking that.

Plenty of folks knew LP was always bad. I've been using 1Password for years, not just because it's so good (it is) but also because LastPass, which I previously used, was horrendous. Even canceling my family account with them was a nightmare.
I’m more interested in my actual question. If there is some sort of interoperable API or something, not engaging with hostile glib one liners.
Limited in scope, it’s an important ideal, hard to ever achieve. The more an organization expands its scope, the more certainly it will not only fail to achieve its goals but do great harm.
I think the anticompetitive aspect here is different. Suppose you're some amazing new search engine startup with rapid promotion through word-of-mouth. Normally, all you'd have to do would be to present some convenient links (or walkthroughs) how your search engine could be added as the default search engine.

Except for iPhones, there is suddenly a gatekeeper. If you don't convince Apple to add you to the list, it won't matter how good you are or how much people want to make you the default engine, as long as Apple says no, they can't.
Classic Jack Welch move. Get out before the shit you created hits the fan and leave the next guy to deal with it.
Senior/married/ADHD/work-was-social-circle: I fucking love remote work, I'm straight up never going back to an office.
A few days ago they declared a "state of emergency" in a few airports, which they're pretty transparently using to squeeze staff.

I don't see any non-bogus reason to, for example, stop accepting doctor's letters from telehealth visits only in cities where they're particularly short staffed.
Amazing that he does this for free, even though audits are some of the most expensive services in the Ethereum ecosystem right now.

No, HN is not social media - it's a forum.
poor-man's market research:

Would you (not your belief about others) be interested in co-working / co-living locales, in different countries (think Costa Rica, Tenerife, Zanzibar) with excellent maintained QoS connectivity, and (higher tier offering) where your right to work (local work visa) for your home-country employer / clients was looked after by the company hosting the network of sites?
Goal: to liberate you to maintain your employ but hopping from locale to locale on a monthly or even weekly basis, with diverse life experiences to go with it.

(cue HNers posting links of offerings that already exist but I promise from experience don't really offer at any ubiquity or scale)

Important caveat: assume your home country's tax regulations have no contest with your working physically from outside its borders.
Err, with all due respect, the alert seems a bit stupid in the current form: as a tourist you would have to eat fresh food, healthy wise. Also it is most likely you want to learn about the kitchen - eating could be of benefit so.

True, getting invited is an option then, but this is likely not possible for all tourists, so they would have to buy something to eat.
I think - and obviously this is speculation - that “real” software companies (where their primary product is a software thingy with appropriate unit economics) will not really be able to lower comp regardless of where it is. There’s a reason engineers in SF get paid 300-500k TC easy, and it’s because they generate multiples of that in return. Software is ridiculously high-margin and (not to toot our collective on horn, but) it’s not something anyone can just do, especially at the mix of technical and soft skills that many FAANG type places require you to be at once you’re at senior/staff levels.

And let’s be honest, if places really could, they would’ve already outsourced to people where COL is 99% lower instead of 20-50% lower.

I do think people tend to overestimate how much cheaper it is to live in flyover country. Even real estate isn’t that% much cheaper unless you’re literally buying a farm with no good internet. And iPhones cost the exact same. So it’s not like companies will be eyeing Kansas as the next India or Estonia. It’s just not enough of an arbitrage to be worth it. Most places I looked at recently were only geo-adjusting base comp by either 0 or 10%.

This is all for senior software eng positions though. Junior and mid positions might be a very different story due to supply being so much higher.
Can Prezi be used to make webcomics? Looks like it costs money and doesn't sync sounds and actions like this.
It's a relatively low effort comment, but I'm not actually sure why you're being downvoted for this.

If you value being able to use your device in whatever way you please then I'd agree it's kinda silly to use an iOS device. If you're the kind of person who's going to want to use obscure search engines or side load apps then maybe an iPhone just isn't for you.

I suppose the pushback would that "freedom" comes at the cost of usability so from a practical standpoint it makes sense that there is some limitations.
From the Tesla proxy statement for 2022:

> In order to mitigate the risk of forced sales of pledged shares, the Board has a policy that limits pledging of Tesla stock by our directors and executive officers. Pursuant to this policy, directors and executive officers may pledge their stock (exclusive of options, warrants, restricted stock units or other rights to purchase stock) as collateral for loans and investments, provided that the maximum aggregate loan or investment amount collateralized by such pledged stock does not exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the total value of the pledged stock.

In other words, Tesla directors and executive officers are supposed to keep their margin debt under 25% of share value, regardless of the terms of their margin loans.

Several Tesla insiders had a very large percentage of their shares pledged against margin loans before the price declined by 70%. I expect Elon is not the only one who needs to check up on their compliance.
I was working a tech conference, probably around 2001, with about a hundred PCs networked together. A colleague of mine intended to send a simple "net send" message to only my workstation, just as a joke. He messed up the syntax and the popup appeared on every PC in the conference, including the giant screen in the main conference hall. The message: "Fuck you". He was fired the next day.

(Don't feel bad for the guy. Getting fired was the best thing that ever happened to him. He was a weekend "action photographer" [surf/skate/snowboard/...] who decided to go full-time after losing his job. He rode the early-2000s "extreme sports" wave and ended up being quite successful, and more importantly, much happier.)
Most document signing solutions out there use no cryptography and are equivalent to someone claiming that someone else signed something. In this case, short of actual cryptography, you'd at least want the claimant to be a neutral, unbiased third-party - a self-hosted solution would raise lots of issues because you will be able to trivially and retroactively falsify signatures or documents.

PostgreSQL + PostgREST IS my "API backend." They're one and the same. There are no other layers. Using an ORM would ADD a layer, not subtract one.
