"Simplicity is a great virtue but it requires hard work to achieve it and education to appreciate it. And to make matters worse: complexity sells better." -- Edsger W. Djikstra

Complexity sells better because it's cheaper. This is not the, "look at this novel abstraction I wrote and proof of its correctness with respect to our specifications," kind of "complexity" that folks often mean. It's the hand-waving, just add the simplest patch you can to make it work for the business problem at hand, type of complexity. The kind of complexity that ends up with giant balls of "really simple" code that nobody understands entirely anymore.

It sells better for all the usual reasons that driving slightly over the speed limit gets you where you're going a little faster. It's only a problem if you get caught or cause a collision.
Be an engineering mentor for your local high school robotics club. From personal experience, I can guarantee that you will come upon aspects of engineering where you are a rank newbie, yet wish you had even a little competence. It's exhilarating when external and internal motivations coincide to push you to develop new skills.

Yes but it’s a fuzzy term, what I meant was more in the “animal” realm of living.

Just to give an example, I (and I think most humans) feel negatively about deforestation or destruction of plant life because it is destroying or profaning something beautiful. It’s like burning art.

Same with the chickens. I’m not sure I consider factory farming immoral, and I definitely don’t consider killing animals for food immoral. I grew up raising chickens (laying hens, it was a family hobby and not a business)and don’t feel any moral or aesthetic issue with killing them. I also hunt and fish a lot, my freezers are full of wild game whose lives I personally ended.

Still, certain kinds of factory farming, like the raising of chicken-blobs, disturb me because they take something I find beautiful and make it ugly. Not sure what to make of the disturbed feeling tho, it’s not a moral condemnation or political position.

That’s the best way I can put it on the internet.

Diving to the Sesotho it could is an impressive feat.
Hmmm, I don't know about this example.

I'm kind of a certified idiot and the first one seems way more intuitive than the second one because it is succinct with much less abstraction. It's easier to "keep in my head" than the second one for me and, again, I cannot stress enough that I am not a clever man.
Has this been a thing for years and is just returning, or something? Could swear I went to one of these in Tokyo some years ago.

You can now simulate Ethereum Transactions for free with Pelta Shield
Even the most experienced blockchain users fail to protect their assets every once in a while

In 2021 14 Billion USD were scammed from users, according to CNBC.

That's why I've built Pelta Shield, a free tool that allows you to simulate your Ethereum transactions before forwarding them to the network.

It's available today on mainnet and on the sepolia testnet!

Feel free to try it out here: https://pelta.tech/quick-setup.html and let me know if you have any feedback.
Chernobyl is terrible. Anti-nuclear and anti-soviet propaganda disguised as a "true story". I can't stand movies and TV shows who claim to be historically accurate while being almost completely made up.

Rick and Morty is also bad. After two episodes I was already bored of the shtick.

Fargo is by far the best series on that list. Seasons 1 and 2 are incredible.
I wonder if it's a time-zone thing with when the link was posted.

I think I remember reacting myself at least somewhat negatively to Gemini first time I heard about it, so on some level I understand how someone's initial reaction could be hostile -- but I also feel like "limited tools producing tight-knit communities and specific community-tailored content" is right up HN's alley, and I am also surprised to see so many people questioning why this should exist.

"It doesn't work for the majority of the web."

So? I assume the project isn't lying, it does actually support HTML. I just don't see how it's a bad thing to have a lightweight browser that handles static HTML; I don't think anyone is advocating that anybody uninstall Firefox over this.

----

I'll kind of go a step further here and give a mildly hot take: nobody should be doing normal browsing on an indie browser in the first place; I consider that a likely security/privacy risk. The vast majority of indie browsers do not have full-featured uBlock Origin support, they don't have the browser hardening features that something like Firefox ships with by default.

So on some level I feel like "can I use this to read CNN" is not necessarily a great metric to use for an indie project, because if you're reading CNN it should probably be in Firefox with uBlock Origin installed (or something comparable, but I typically advocate that Firefox and its derivatives have better tracking protection than other mainstream browsers).

In contrast, if something loads in this browser, what is your security risk? Limited MITM attacks and network analysis? I don't feel the same aversion I feel to most indie web browsers when I think about someone reading a limited number of indie web articles in this thing or building projects around it.

By "know how much distance", you mean "able to decompose it into smaller subunit"? This is different from what I mean when I say knowing a distance.

I have a i9-13900K with just a noctua air cooler and itll happily churn along with cores loaded at 5.5-5.8ghz on the performance ones and whatever peak is on the efficiencies (I have forgotten off the top of my head) and it sits around 89C.

so... don't get a top end model or undervolt/underclock it if you care that much?

I don't get all the weird complaining about /halo products/ and /highest end models/ potentially using a lot of power and producing a lot of heat.

Public school in Alabama. Never once used Fahrenheit for anything. Most stuff actually done in Kelvin, although as I am sure you know there is little difference.
RSS is a hassle in so many ways.

Ken Sheriff posts a blog post every few weeks. I’d really like to get notified of his blog post the instant he posts and and be the first to post it to HN. To get that kind of immediacy I’d have to poll his blog at an unreasonable rate. His blog is just one of 100-1000 independent blogs that I’d like to follow.
> It seems like you definitely need at least an AIO watercooler

There is another problem with watercooling, which is that once the water warms up (which it will under sustained loads) your CPU temperature will begin to climb.

Then it becomes a game of "do I have thermal mass enough to run my job before throttling", and often it can be the case that radiators are unable to effectively cool down the CPU; but the additional water becomes thermal capacity; sometimes giving the appearance of better cooling when in actuality your system will throttle after 10 minutes of work.

Your heatsink is one of the better ones, an NHD-15 might be better but only slightly, after which point: I don't think it can be expected to cool a CPU at a sustained load with any AIO system, even the triple fan ones.

I'm probably not communicating this terribly well, I went down this rabbit hole when I was watercooling my old GPU and CPU in a custom loop by EK, I ended up discovering that if I wanted to do sustained work (which I did) then a direct airflow system would have worked better, so I ripped out the loop and it did work better for sustained loads.
Would it make sense to change the title?

> Half a century of food trends has created an environment where more than half the food consumed by American adults is ultra-processed, often optimized to hit the body’s fat and sugar sensors to release dopamine.

On first sight, this looks like optimization problem. Food is optimized as to be more pleasant than other food on shelves, so that particular food is selected more. The problem started when we had food that was so optimized to be tasty that it became irresistible for many people (like me). Cynical solution - make laws to make food more bland. Good solution - not found yet and this article also doesn't provide any solution, only states the problem.

[edit] - A little edit to add clarity that I'm not another "just do X" commenter.
Yes, we (Medium) think federation is a feature and so we have to find our niche. That makes sense to me as a business: just find something valuable to do and do it well. I'd guess that there will end up being a GMail sized instance, but we are committed to a bundled subscription. So if we move beyond just getting authors online we'd be aiming to be more like the hey.com of instances.
A good metric I once heard was:

Fahrenheit is what humans feel

Celsius is what water feels

Kelvin is what atoms feel

Also, for converting between km and miles, using the Fibonacci sequence is a 'good enough' estimator.

5 miles is ~8 km, 21 miles is ~34 km. 13 km is ~8 miles, 55 km is ~34 miles.

Drop or add decimals to get to numbers not in the sequence. If you want to know what 6 km, use 5.5km and you see that its a bit over 3.4 miles.
That Finland has a sizable Swedish-speaking minority? The guy was considered Swedish back then; Finland was simply the Eastern half of the Swedish kingdom.

There's plenty of Finnish speaking Swedes too. Is that also an argument for invasion?
It sounds more like there are a pair of systems where one operates as the primary and the other as a backup, and these can swap in case of problems with the primary. That's fairly typical in critical infrastructure.

I've done testing on these types of systems in the past (carefully) and the owners will often let you test against the system that's currently the "backup".

So they probably restarted the "primary" after performing a fail-over.

Hardly. I was raised in a rural space (with much lower access to neighbor children) and had tons of access to "urban" space because I used a bike.

Nothing of today's suburban spaces prevents this same kind of access.
Its a chicken & egg question, what came first? The caste separation or the genetic separation? I find both plausible.

90%+ CPU load at... what frequency? That rule doesn't make a lot of sense unless you are meaning "90%+ load while sustaining maximum core clocks"
It sounds to me like WhatsApp is being used for safety-critical stuff:

> Previously, each train could automatically identify its proximity to another one. “It is designed to stop so trains don’t collide,” said Pérez Varela. Now, human operators, who had initially been hired as a fail-safe to manually halt a train if the automatic pilot failed, need to intervene more often. Trains usually run at 70 kilometers per hour, but when the autopilot signals that it is not working, operators must take immediate action to manually reduce the speed to 35 kilometers per hour to avoid derailment.
>
> Since the trains are increasingly manually driven, real-time communication among operators is essential. “We are all provided with a radio but it doesn’t work properly,” Jaime, an operator who has worked at the Metro for 17 years, told Rest of World on condition of anonymity. “That’s why we started using our cellphones.”

That reads to me like they need communication to ensure they don't run into the rear of the train ahead.
Maybe next time you can take your gun with you and shoot the next person running by, like Ahmaud Arbery. Gotta protect the neighborhood.
Many americans seem unaware of many things that happened before 1776. How many americans even know that the constitution wasn't made until many years later, how many even know the articles of confederation exist, or the politics of 1600s colonies? Many americans seem to think the declaration of independence is legally binding.

We are an incredibly stupid country, because many of us actively devalue education, or otherwise denigrate people who learn. The requirements for teaching and education varies wildly state to state, including many states that basically have NO requirements for teachers, and we have actual, real, paper textbooks purchased by southern school systems that teach slavery as "not that bad"

Guessing part of the concern is that lower income folks might have historically substituted eggs for meat when money was tight.
Let's just say, the sudden upswell in advocacy and promulgation just seems non-"organic" and seems more like coordinated memetics.

For example as another kind of ordinance which is more organic is the adoption of bans or phasing out of gas-powered leaf blowers.

Also, second-hand smoke from puffed weed is detrimental to non-smokers' health --can I expect the same virality?
WordPress serves as kind of an ad hoc CMS for many different kinds of backends. Because it’s easy to extend and a lot of people are familiar with it.

When I worked at the CDC, the entire backend of cdc.gov was a heavily HEAVILY customized version of WordPress that did static publishing. I’d guess it’s still that way.

It’s why WooCommerce was so popular. Role your own eCommerce.

GraphQL is good because using WP headless is popular these days.
But, of course, _all_ yaml documents are from hell.

Suburban neighborhoods are built to limit high speed through traffic. Perfectly accessible with a bike (or no less accessible than they ever have been).
> You don't need to create a custom proxy for that.

Wrong, you still need a custom proxy server for this to work.

The programs you suggested only help to (temporarily) inspect the Request/Response, as you say, but you would need to manually modify the responses every time they come through the proxy, which could easily translate to hundreds of requests per day while using a single app. Surely no one wants to have to sit there modifying every single HTTP request while using an app like Adobe Photoshop.

Instead, what you want is to inspect these requests/responses once using one of those programs you suggested, and then immediately translate your findings into a permanent API endpoint in your custom proxy server, which is constantly running in the background. This way you can use the app as any other user and the app will think that it is communicating with the real (remote) API.

Your suggestion to use either Burp Suite, Charles Proxy, or mitmproxy only helps if the app you are trying to crack checks for a valid license once in its entire installation lifetime. Unfortunately, the great majority of apps out there try to validate the license every few days, hours, and even minutes, for example, Sublime Text sends a request to license[.]sublimehq[.]com/check/<license> several times in a day.
Some geothermal systems use deep wells, others use coils of pipe buried a few feet down, below the frost line. If you're lucky enough to have a deep pond or lake nearby, you can put the coils of pipe in that.
I don't disagree with any of these points. Where I disagree is that style differences make code less understandable or more difficult for others to work with to any meaningful degree. To me, it's roughly equivalent to stylistic differences in how people choose to communicate in written form. I'd genuinely be surprised if someone has more difficulty understanding code because a brace is on a line all by itself or not. I'd not be surprised to hear they have a preference or that they're annoyed to work with code that is not in their preferred style.
I read this incident as they in fact did have a DR strategy, they knew how to execute it, did so successfully, and still failed.

What threatened globalization was when COVID exposed just how fragile all of our supply chains were. Making them more fault tolerant isn't "protectionism" or "zero sum thinking", it's just good sense.
Yes, because the world has always needed more government education and government healthcare to have children... I seriously wonder how much you actually critically consider your beliefs and how much you just take them in as indoctrination? https://www.forbes.com/sites/ebauer/2019/08/09/is-sweden-our...

"The conventional wisdom goes like this: ... countries such as Sweden, with its heavily subsidized, always-available daycare, generous parental leave shared by both parents, and a culture ordered around community and family life rather than work, hit the "sweet spot" of replacement-level fertility rates."

"Except that the notion of a replacement rate fertility in Sweden is itself a bit of a fantasy. As of 2018, the total fertility rate in Sweden was 1.76 children per woman. Among native-born Swedes, it was even lower, at 1.67. To be sure, this rate is higher than that of such countries as Germany (1.59 in 2016, or 1.46 among women with German citizenship), and even slightly higher than the record low rate of 1.72 recorded in the United States in 2018, but it's still not the replacement-level of 2.1."
It was planned from the start to have an official package manager and have it be part of the main compiler executable.

I’d be interested to hear about your Balkans real estate investing if you’re up for a convo.
Not just the competition between poultry farms either, but competition with any other protein a person can eat. The closer eggs gets in price per calorie to meat (or nuts, cheese, etc), the less people are likely to choose eggs. There’s plenty of food out there, and a large part of the historic popularity of eggs has been their cheap price.
It sounds like an interesting thing to look up. One thing you might want to remember though is that some in Europe, Irish and Scots particularly, get a kick out of winding up guys from America who look a bit gullible and inquire about some connection they have to someone’s country. You’d be surprised how many times I’ve heard Oh you’re from Scotland, do you know Kenneth/Hamish/Calum/etc?” and it is genuinely tempting to say “Yes” and make something silly up.

So just mentally prepare yourself that this could end up being the punchline of a joke that was originally told 100 years back :-)
Because when my generic store-brand eggs are sold out, I will be looking to buy your Pasture Raised Organic eggs.

Or: the only reason I was buying generic eggs in the first place was that they were half the price of your Pasture Raised Organic eggs. Once they are almost the same price, I might as well buy Pasture Raised Organic eggs.
Eh, I dunno. Back when that particular phrase was coined, everyone was afraid Microsoft was gonna somehow destroy Linux, and yet that never happened, either.

Open platforms and protocols are incredibly powerful and resistance to balkanization. Heck, I find it really ironic you mention "the web, javascript and any number of ostensibly free and open platforms and protocols" as examples of things that companies supposedly made theirs or destroyed, given the web itself is more open and standardized than it every was. If anything, Microsoft's failure to push proprietary solutions/extensions into the web (HTML extensions, JScript, ActiveX, Silverlight, etc) is a great example of how resilient the web truly is.

Yes, they're used as a substrate for building walled garden services, but how do you interact with those services? Using open protocols implemented by interoperable clients and servers.

You're right to be wary of pigeonholing people: thinking that Alice "isa volatile" and Bob "isa stable", and viewing all interactions with them through that lens, will be more harmful than helpful.

But there's value in recognizing and categorizing instances of behavior in these terms. It's hard to effect change over something you don't understand, and giving it a name is a useful step to understanding.
