No, of course not. But pilots aren't going to aviationweather.gov while they're flying, either. They get that info from the controller or ATIS.
As I said in another comment. You people keep moving the goal post. If I produce wrong software, it is my fault I agree. But I can still produce correct software without any value. Should I be at fault to producing something you asked for but that doesn't have any value in market?

The problem is putting the pressure on software engineers on producing software that has value. This need other competency that the business should study and plan properly. It is not just a software engineering thing.
Lots of easy problems is a good way to build up muscle memory, though. IMO the brute-force method of, say, Saxon Math really makes sense for things like basic elementary school algebra and probably intro calculus, where the student is sort of learning the math equivalent of how to walk. Not sure where the switch over ought to be, though.
Congrats on the launch! OpenTelemetry/Distributed Tracing has been in dire need of quality of life improvements, so I'm glad to see more folks filling in the gaps.

I see you're injecting trace IDs into programs. How do you guarantee that this doesn't break the binary or flag any security/compliance requirements?
Maybe we aren't seeing the same things, To the left of the table of contents there is a lot of wasted space still. and to the right there is even more wasted space.

Navigating is also slow, it takes a second to scroll down, while before it was instantaneous.
No, those come from ground reporting stations which feed into a whole bunch of sources - online stuff will give it to you including Foreflight, or just key up the ATIS and listen for a few seconds. Or ask a controller.
Yeah the bit at the end was kinda silly, eh? Sure, we don't have magic AI yet, but what do we do about what we do have?
Huh, interesting. I stand corrected.
I did the same, but I had not updated it since 2020, now I can't remember the passphrase I used back then, I probably should have kept a separate paper copy of the passphrase. Or I should have use my GPG private key to do the encryption. It is also possible that my keyboard was not in the right language or I made a typo, I have tested hundred of combinations with no luck so far.
Yes, but as a thought experiment it is considered by many as the only way to make unbiased decisions about moral principles and how society should be structured. Moral philosopher John Rawls's uses the terms original position and veil of ignorance. You can think of them as "What we'd all decide for the world if each of us did not know ahead of time which person they'd would be born as".

https://open.library.okstate.edu/introphilosophy/chapter/joh...

> The Veil is meant to ensure that people’s concern for their personal benefit could translate into a set of arrangements that were fair for everyone, assuming that they had to stick to those choices once the Veil of Ignorance ‘lifts’, and they are given full information again.

> One set of facts hidden from you behind the Veil are what we might call ‘demographic’ facts. You do not know your gender, race, wealth, or facts about your personal strengths and weaknesses, such as their intelligence or physical prowess. Rawls thought these facts are morally arbitrary: individuals do not earn or deserve these features, but simply have them by luck. As such, they do not deserve any benefits or harms that come from them. By removing knowledge of the natural inequalities that give people unfair advantages, it becomes irrational to choose principles that discriminate against any particular group.

What is your expected UX for a toggle with poor network reliability?
Far right is a pretty loaded term.

I’m actually really happy that they extracted terms from McCarthy. Everyone who spent time slamming these 20 Republicans should publicly apologize and write them a thank you card because they got more victories for their constituents than most politicians ever do. Here’s what they got:

- Jeffersonian Motion to vacate the chair. This allows a single person to make the motion to remove the speaker if he goes back on his word or policy agenda.

- A "Church" style committee: this allows us to look into the weaponization of orgs like the FBI against the American people.

- Term Limit Vote

- Single Subject Bills(that can't be loaded with irrelevant nonsense

- Texas Border Plan

- A budget that stops an increase in the debt ceiling and holds senate accountable.

- Ending emergency funding and all COVID mandates and funding.

- 72 Hours to read a bill.

These all sound like objectively good things regardless of your political orientation.

You misunderstand what free speech under the First Amendment is. It stops prior restraint from the government on political speech. It does not stop post restraint, and has zero to do with you posting things using resources from public companies.

It's a governmental restriction, not a company, employer, parent, or societal restriction.

Note the First Amendment prohibits Congress from passing a law restricting the free speech of the press. Social media companies are more like press than anything else - and the courts give them the same first amendments you have. They do not have to post your content if they don't like it, in the same manner you don't have to let them put yard signs on your property expressing things you dislike.

>Letting billionaires decide what is “misinformation” is not.

They're not stopping you from free speech. They're not letting you post anything you like on their property. You can speak all you want, you can organize, make flyers, start competing companies.

And billionaires are certainly not some monolithic group - for any one piece of information or misinformation there's plenty of billionaires on all sides of it.

This is a good post, I feel the same way about the startup I am currently building. I've followed a similar path - built out a very detailed requirements roadmap to keep me on track and there are features on that roadmap that in the past would definitely be "We add that once we have initial traction"

But I also have ideas for ways of pivoting if the full build struggles.

I think MVP is an outmoded idea for a lot of new startups. Unless you truly have some kind of revolutionary tech (like OpenAI) or idea that nobody else has, you have to differentiate on other things like execution and cost.
Apple famously cannibalizes their existing products deliberately, so I don't think that's what's holding them back. It's also strongly possible that Apple's eventual product will require an iPhone to function, so cannibalization might not even be an issue.

Apple also famously tries not to release products first, waiting until they can deliver something that fits well into their ethos. How well they succeed at that is an open question, and whether it's a wise approach is an open question, but it's their approach.

I'm not sure Apple can deliver another home run, but so far they've delivered more than anyone else I can think of, so I wouldn't bet against them either.

Passwordless is going to make this even worse - there's no migration path (yet) from platform ecosystems to each other. I've not seen any serious progress on how to switch from Apple to Google, which doesn't involve doing things one by one, site by site.

And more to the point, a way of handling "I've lost my phone and had to buy a new cheap one" seems to be a potentially problematic edge case. Bootstrapping trust and authentication for end users without any physical token is hard, but seems necessary, especially for non technical end users, for whom password reset processes might even be the default route of access.
Possibly a dumb question, but how much plastic exists in tires? I figured they were mostly natural rubber. Naturally, that must be outdated.

From my own naive Google search on "how much plastic in the average tire", I see https://www.nationalgeographic.com/environment/article/tires... says, highlighted by goog:

> By 1931 the U.S. chemical company DuPont had industrialized the manufacturing of synthetic rubber. Today tires consist of about 19 percent natural rubber and 24 percent synthetic rubber, which is a plastic polymer.

It's worth thinking about, but it's hard to say. Perhaps Google would voluntarily turn over the info without a search warrant, and/or would do it quietly without telling the customer even if not required by law to keep it quiet -- but the small pharmacy with the relationship with its customers would not. Perhaps law enforcement already has a relationship with google and established channels for accessing this info, whether with or without a court order.
Minor comment: the improvement over the state-of-the-art is in the second order term of the exponent.

Their formula express det. with B_n = exp( n ln n - n lnln n - O(n)) terms.

The old formula had exp(n ln n - O(n)) terms.

It's a nice bound, but won't change much for non-theoretical results.
Passwordless is MFA -- something you are and something you have.

I'm not a yubikey expert, but I don't believe that losing your Yubikey will open up your company to a breach.

For a typical passwordless solution, losing your phone isn't a risk, given that no one can reproduce your face or thumbprint.

So they are filtering for a ethic that accepts boldface lying to them is necessary to cover essentials.

There's only one thing on that list which isn't food/seasoning/salt: methylcellulose. However, it is derived from plant cellulose, and is basically a semi-synthetic equivalent of pectin, a natural product (or other dietary fibers). Methylcellulose is better than pectin because it's just easier to get standard properties.

There's nothing harmful about it and the body treats it exactly the same as pectin - it passes straight through like other dietary fiber.
I didn't realize that was the official name..I just thought it was a region thing.

I would encourage you to explore this more thoroughly. I frequently find myself working with three machines at the same time. My Windows box because of needing to use speech recognition in conjunction with copilot and VS code. My Linux laptop for local endpoint, and a VM endpoint somewhere (the old man says standing in the yard shaking his fist at the cloud)

Far too often I find myself making all my changes on my Windows box, or copying them to one destination, the other, or both. Then bug fixing on the local machine as part of my test cycle. Then I have a few moments of confusion when I try to remember what I changed where and how to pull them all back over to my Windows box.

So yeah, something like your proposed tool would be quite useful.
As a sample, I just glanced at the UBI discussion there. Each claim pro and con, when clicked upon, seems to break into another level of claims pro and con. And apparently crowdsourced as well. Looks like a fantastic resource. Very much what I was hoping for.
>You have no right to someone else's property

This is totally false in every sense. Try kicking out every African American customer from your restaurant. The Feds will bury your ass in lawsuits if not trumped up hate crime charges.

> be careful what you wish for

Why does everything you say sound more like a threat than a real argument? We can have different laws for the internet and telephone. Who are you saying would punish Americans by restricting speech further if we demanded more of it?
However, they do represent a significant fraction of the government's budget and they are directly impacted by government shutdowns. That Republicans continue to play childish games regardless of their impact on veterans is shameful.

Hey, thanks for commenting. Your comment actually got me thinking of something I've been meaning to get deeper into for a long time, so I wrote another post about it: https://tegowerk.eu/posts/death-of-the-author/
The WFH that came from Covid is probably the best thing that could’ve happened to my wife and I. I’m 10x happier and 10x more productive. I could never imagine going back to an office 5 days a week. That would be torture.

I’ve lived in 5 different states, seen 10+ national parks, countless more state parks and days out hiking, and been more active than ever.

> the alternative is cheaper and simpler

What's interesting is that it seems like the microwave version was the cheaper and simpler alternative. And the engineering problems were apparently solved, since they were building the product for their first deal, and were demoing the tech to the popsci reporter who visited.

Nice example, thank you. Worst when the hairdresser change the style throughout the process because they think something else is better for my head. Maybe at the end I go home sad and frustrated, because (a) I didn't get the style I asked for (b) the one I got does'n fit my face and worsen my value and (c) I had to pay too.
I moved my personal blog to Grav a couple of years ago:

There are plugins for WordPress to generate markdown files from your posts and then you can import that into Grav. I self-host this in Docker and find it much more pleasing to actually write things. Statamic is another similar markdown-based CMS that I've been eyeballing.
All you're doing is letting your imagination run wild because you don't want to believe the simplest (and most likely) explanation. This isn't helpful to anyone.
Foundations and Fundamental Concepts of Mathematics, by Howard Eves
* The Art of Probability by Hamming. An opinionated, slightly quirky text on probability. Unlike the text used in my university course its explanations were clear and rigourous without being pedantic. The exercises were both interesting and enlightening. The only book in this list that taught skills I've actually used in the real world.

* Calculus by Spivak. This was used in my intro calculus course in university. It's very much a bottom-up, first-principles construction of calculus. Very proof-based, so you have to be into that. Tons of exercises, including some that sneakily introduce pretty advanced concepts not explicitly covered in the main text. This book, along with the course, rearranged by brain. Not sure how useful it would be for self-study though.

* Measurement by Lockhart. I haven't read the whole thing, but have enjoyed working through some of the exercises. A good book for really grokking geometric proofs and understanding "mathematical beauty", rather than just cranking through algebraic proofs step by step.

* Naive Set Theory by Halmos. Somewhat spare, but a nice, concise introduction to axiomatic set theory. Brings you from nothing up to the Continuum Hypothesis. I read this somewhere around my first year in university and it was another brain-rearranger.

I think there's a difference between "90% baked" and "in retrospect, didn't have features it's most commonly used for now."

I mean, iPhone didn't have 3G or the ability to run third-party apps at launch, but nobody could credibly claim it was only 90% baked in 2007.
> - A "Church" style committee: this allows us to look into the weaponization of orgs like the FBI against the American people.

The purpose of that committee is to be a factory for clips to show on Fox News and Newsmax. I appreciate your optimism but it's unwarranted.
> It might, if economics was a settled science. But a lot has changed in the last 50 years, and half-century old intuitions are actually less than useful by this point and have the real possibility of leading us down paths of ruin. Also, cognitive abilities decline with age.

Wow, that's very ageist.

> What "evidence" would appease you that's not written in the WEF bylaws?

Precisely that. The article could have given a little context by saying something about the WEF bylaws. If the WEF is just this man's private enterprise with no other purpose than to be an alter-ego for him that makes money for him, then sure, why not. If it's a listed corporation, there are shareholders to consider. If it is a tax-exempt foundation, there is the question of tax fraud to consider. I simply don't know what the WEF is, and it would be useful for a reader of this article to know that, before they get to be outraged, which outrage, presumably, is what the article is driving at.
Many years ago, I lost my phone with Google Authenticator (which doesn't have a backup option like Authy does) and got locked out from AWS. The next day there was a production issue with our website. Long story short, our website was down for more than 2 weeks while I was trying to regain access to our AWS account. #2faneveragain
Won't somebody just think of Googles pocketbook. The only way they can stay afloat is telling people to go fuck themselves when Google messes something about their entire online identity up, clearly.

Ask HN: What will the future of consumer social look like?
With incumbents dominating the social media industry for more than a decade, what would it take for a new social app to come out and at least compete with these platforms (IG, Snap, Twitter, Facebook, TikTok). I refuse to believe that the current platforms we have will forever be the go-to social platforms, there needs to be a change in consumer social, something different. The question is: What will it take for a new social app to compete with the current platforms?

What are your predictions for the future of social media?

Passkeys as implemented are normally multi-factor. You need to both posses a device whose platform authenticator contains a key registered with the site, and also enter either a PIN, or use biometrics. On mobile devices this is done via the same options available on the lock screen, while for Windows this is "Windows Hello". I'm not sure how MacOS works here, but presumably similar to iOS.

As an alternative to using a platform authenticator a FIDO2 security token can be used over USB, bluetooth, or smart card NFC.

It is up to the site to specify if user verification (i.e. a second factor) is required, or not. If required, the authenticator must verify the user, typically via biometrics or PIN, although a desktop OS may fall back to login password. The website may instead specify "preferred", which generally requires a second factor, but allows an authenticator to skip in in some circumstances (like if a classic password is the only verification option available, as opposed to a PIN or biometrics, since in that scenario requiring the user to type their computer login password every time is generally not a good user experience, and would be best reserved for extra sensitive scenarios).
Wolf Incident Postmortem
I think that it's still pretty unique to the US. I completely agree with your point in general, and I think that internet discussions are often centered around America, so there's a huge selection biais in online discourse. But I truly think that the "the empire is under siege"/national security discourse is much more prevalent in the US. Which makes sense considering it is the empire ;). We don't really have that where I'm from. Instead of a siege mentality, we have a prevalent inferiority complex hahaha.
