I’ve been on the lookout for a better way to do embeddable videos. The YouTube one is fine, but for a landing page, it’s not great that YT (of course) tries to get you to watch recommended videos right afterward.

I was actually going to say, Wistia has a nice player but it’s expensive - and then I just checked their pricing and they actually have lowered prices quite a bit! There’s even a generous free tier now.

I’ve also been curious about how hard it’d be to self-host an embedded video. Naively it seems like the hardest part would be encoding it into a bunch of sizes and chunks… and then keeping an eye on bandwidth. I found a good blog on it a while ago and can’t find it now.
You surely could be hacked, and while it unfortunately could be said about pretty much anything, this particular case doesn't seem to justify passing PII to the second party.
There are alternatives like simply pinging the servers or one of the many alternative DNS servers like 1.1.1.1 or 8.8.8.8 that are out there.
Think of the opportunity cost relative to making that same investment in BEVs.
I see that GCP support is "coming soon"--even just a quota comparison would be really nice, as these are numerous and a big pain there. Any ETA on when there might be something for GCP?
Covid is not just a respiratory disease. It can affect "the heart, kidneys, skin and brain. Inflammation and problems with the immune system can also happen," according to Mayo Clinic: https://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/coronavirus/i...

They're mainly talking about severe cases, but it doesn't seem that unlikely that it could also have more mild effects to those organs.
Looks interesting! What it's missing that Syncthing has (from a first glance) is the ability to setup encrypted sync on a possibly untrusted node.
I assume because Debian/Ubuntu works more likely out of the box. I tried to use Alpine but ran into various issues in our sad big corporate setup. Additionally, ruby provides base docker images in these too.
I had absolute zero interest in digital art before, now I have some and would at least react to the artists often mentioned in prompts. They didn't get any money from me before, but the chance is > 0.0 now at least, I might at some point commission some original digital art and now I would checkout both the AI and the humans. Before this I might instead have opted for a stock photo for $5.

But who knows how the numbers turn out in the long run. I don't think the artists is the group that's going to get the most annoyed in the next couple of years - copy writers and programmers, 3D artists, basically anybody who's doing grunt work..

I think the main problem with all of this is that it has entered our lives so fast, compared to other revolutions.
The technology is coming one way or another. You can stop Stability AI but you can't stop OpenAI (Microsoft) or Google, who can afford to license training data from companies like Shutterstock. A restrictive interpretation of copyright law will just keep it in the hands of the biggest corporations.
>> I've told them is to get out of any online stuff and hit bars

> how the article compares the unequal distribution of sex partners with the unequal distribution of wealth

I think Houellebecq's quote from 1994 is what popularized the sexual marketplace

> “It's a fact...that in societies like ours sex truly represents a second system of differentiation, completely independent of money; and as a system of differentiation it functions just as mercilessly. The effects of these two systems are, furthermore, strictly equivalent. Just like unrestrained economic liberalism, and for similar reasons, sexual liberalism produces phenomena of absolute pauperization . Some men make love every day; others five or six times in their life, or never. Some make love with dozens of women; others with none. It's what's known as 'the law of the market'...Economic liberalism is an extension of the domain of the struggle, its extension to all ages and all classes of society. Sexual liberalism is likewise an extension of the domain of the struggle, its extension to all ages and all classes of society.”

I wish he wrote another future-looking book about the next decade

> a bad economy and bad job market makes it difficult for young men to become independent and that makes it extremely difficult for them to become sexually active

I m not sure about that because a lot of the frustrated guys are nerds with lucrative jobs (hence why they hang out in reddit). They make great uncles but are not considered boyfriend material.
That sounds good, but we might need a class attribute that disables filesystem corruption in case we need to access `___________super_ultra_private` somewhere
Given the push for mental health & disability visibility as part of DE&I initiatives, is there a reason that you think long covid would garner you more sympathy than saying you're suffering depression as the result of a traumatic experience?
I wish i could use Go, but we are not there yet framework-wise, so I'm either using Phoenix or Rails, depending for the team.

I had to pause a bit for this while reading the page. This was a brand new phrase for me, never expected to see it in a mobile app.
You should put an example badge on the page :)

(I first looked around the page, then around the main github repo looking for an example, before eventually reading the rest of your comment and seeing one there :P)
I do agree, the local stores get mostly picked over by early December and often won't get restocked once sold out by that point.

> Amazon actually has some innovative products

If innovation is 72% of the products being immediately trash at delivery, count me out. It seems to me their real innovation is getting people to accept that an 72% failure rate is a good and acceptable thing.

Imagine if 72% of the apples you bought at the store were rotten by the time you came home. Imagine if 72% of the cars manufactured were scrap in the first 10 miles.

72% of the things you bought here were trash at delivery, and its being hailed as a good thing.

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills.

Please, quit supporting marketplaces that shovel trash on us.
I wasn't implying you were advocating for that, I agree with you, I was just pointing out that justifying your position by appealing to tradition is not helpful in convincing others (though it is great for virtue signaling).

On the Japan note, I actually did an internship in Japan over the summer a few years back and the work-life balance I saw there was actually depressing. Lots has been written about Japanese work culture (and I've heard Korean work culture is similar), but thankfully, I don't see the US quite getting to that point. If anything, we're pushing firmly in the opposite direction. Most people I personally know (in software engineering) hold a healthy work-life balance and are all the happier for it.

Japan's issues with reproduction seem to mostly stem from that, but the source of the problem in the US to me seems to be either overly-high expectations or over-correcting cynicism, both influenced by pop culture. On one hand, we have groups who believe fervently that "perfection" as seen in movies is realistic and are disappointed constantly by reality. On the other hand, people who have grown disillusioned with the world see everything as a chance for disappointment and avoid commitment to anything, leading to self-sabotage.
Keep getting LinkedIn messages from Tezos recruiters, quoting surprisingly high salaries. By all sensible metrics (e.g. token value, trading volume, actual real-world usage) they are just another dead crypto project. If I were in charge, I would take whatever cash I had extracted from 'bag-holders' and retire. But I suppose they want to keep up appearances for a little while, and this bit of news is probably good for a little more exit liquidity.
I'm not sure, it might be. If you're not careful, CPU can become bottleneck when you have a 10Gbit network card.
> Do you want to live in a future where anything 'original' an artist creates has now blocked anyone else on the planet for the next 99 years and you must pay them royalties?

No I don't want that but there's a very clear distinction between people who are truly inspired by each others' work and produce an average human output that maybe covers their bills and AI that can pump out billions of replicates per day to drown out all original work, with entirety of that value captured by some corporation.

> I honestly want to live in a world where this 'worrying about paying for rent' is not a problem that we're concerned with, and a world with AI that can create and make we far more apt to achieve that than with the status quo we've been following so far.

Hey, me too. But those human issues should be addressed first, not after automation is allowed to wipe out people's livelihoods. I'm not anti-AI, I'm anti-big tech that seeks to exploit billions of people's original work for their own benefit.
Fair enough, trendy restaurants and bars also probably do well.
Looks cool! I created something similar a while ago, which allows you to store any kind of data in the url (web pages, audio, games,...).

The equation is: if it isn't already in orbit, and it doesn't hit the atmosphere, then it flies past.

For an incoming object to start orbiting earth, it has to decelerate through active propulsion or aerobraking or something like that.
They opposed it because they said there wasn’t enough information. That is the excuse for doing nothing — an argument repeated ad nauseam during the pandemic.

Certainly there is an argument that children will be harmed if we do nothing. It’s a difficult decision because children a small number if children die from Covid, but it’s still not zero. The best way forward is to proceed with caution.
Does recruiting ever comprise more than 3% of a company's staff?
I'm looking at Europe and I'm a bit confused how this would be a causal relationship.

9 countries have legalized prostitution: Germany, Netherlands, Austria, Switzerland, Greece, Hungary, Latvia, and Turkey.[0]

Human trafficking, in order of severity, is most linked to: Netherlands, UK, Romania, France, Germany, Bulgaria, Italy, Poland, Hungry, Portugal.

From this list alone (these tend to follow power laws) there's a higher correlation with being a Bloc State than legalized prostitution. Unsurprising to see UK and Germany here considering they are not only the most wealthy countries, but also the most populous. Netherlands... well I got no answer there but this is just a quick look.

Just given this quick look, I'd be shocked to learn that legalization of prostitution was a major causal factor in human trafficking.

> Reading stuff like this makes my current work feel stupid by comparison.

It makes our economic system seem stupid. Jesus, we're not calculating astrophysics or quantum mechanics. A made-up system should not require or depend upon this kind of speed or precision. Maybe we should chill.

Reminds me of those pro StarCraft players who keep unnecessarily clicking the mouse to keep their APM (actions per minute) stat high.
So... We had record low interest rates for years, the PPP, rolling shutdowns in China...

And people are blaming the stimulus checks? Shows you the power of business interests in the media.

I am constantly coughing up several fluid ounces of clear phlegm daily. I have to clear my throat with disgusting noises for at least a couple hours per day, ideally for at least 5 minutes once per hour, just to feel like I'm not drowning. I could take a picture of the puddles of phlegm daily to prove it. I've already seen a few doctors and none of them can tell exactly what it is, nor have any suggested treatments helped. Personally, I have found that using a toothbrush to brush the back of my tongue to induce a gag reflex to induce a major, choking, heaving coughing fit where it feels like my lungs are turning inside out, reduces the sensation of drowning but does not slow down fluid production. Obviously, having do to this would be very awkward in an office environment, and overall it's just extremely depressing that I'm crippled like this when I'm otherwise a very healthy 30 year old. Been living with this for 2 years and keeping my job but I'm sure everyone talks about how annoying my constant coughing is, nevermind the unlucky people who hear me clearing my throat or catch me spitting up puddles in the office parking lot.
I don't use Docker locally except for building/testing production containers. I also found them not helpful for development.

That said, I recently discovered that VS Code has a feature called "Dev Containers"[0] that ostensibly makes it easy to develop inside the same Docker container you'll be deploying. I haven't had a chance to check it out, but it seems very cool.

This article got me thinking about the use of the term smart. I'm not sure why we call the every connected device smart. For the most part they're connected devices not smart devices. Smart to me means more than just being able to be controlled remotely. I think this is likely been pushed by marketing, but just because corporations say it's 'smart', does that mean we should all blindly start following suit.

On a bigger note, we probably do this blindly for lots of products and services, trust and use the terms we're sold by entities that are mostly only interested in one thing...

I'm as guilty as anyone, bit it would be good if we wised up to this stuff a bit more.
No, they are not. Laws are about the same.
Just an FYI, many artists create with no financial incentive.
Thank you for running this. I'm using it for a few weeks now, and have been getting a good use from it.
I second Sapolsky, fun to watch, dry humour.
Not going to imply you need dozens of partners but no, you need at least a few. Like every dance partner produces a wildly different outcome so does a relationship. You learn a lot about yourself in the process. Enough that it should be considered a prerequisite to a mature relationship.
What is your gender? I'm 46 and male, and more and more women (my preferred gender!) seem to be attracted to me over time, though surely at some point that trend will go into reverse.

I've heard a lot of women around my age suffering from the opposite trend.

It depends on the MVP, but I'd (still?) use the MEAN stack with the latest Angular and Node. Expecially because I made a boilerplate [1] that allows me to start any project faster.

Ahoy! Thanks to whoever posted a link to Airframes here on HN. I'm the founder of the project.

It's been a bit of a crazy 24 hours, and I haven't had enough time to fully surface and understand the impact that the ADSB Exchange sale has on everyone, the community, and Airframes.

Most of the Airframes effort has been fairly heads down, built in a tiny corner of the community and was not prepared for the events of the last day. Until now, most people weren't even familiar with technologies such as ACARS or VDL, limited to a mostly a small cross section of the community.

It has been a careful and deliberate effort to grow feeders & ingests slowly due to the nature of the data and infrastructure/storage needed, from both discovery (figuring out the data structures) and process (how to make use of it) perspectives. Requiring much of the efforts on the backend that the currently simple web app does not exactly reveal.

A new web app in development (there are some obvious and glaring issues/quirks with it now), and several other components, such as a desktop app, a mobile app, and a multi-architecture radio-focused OS to easily setup feeders (to Airframes, and the other aggregators) that will expand to other radio interests in time. There has been a lot of preliminary work on each of these.

The plan is to open source much of this over time.

If there is interest, I'm happy to elaborate more. I have been very transparent about the development process and implementations on the Discord in realtime. You are welcome to explore the dev channels there to get more background in the meantime.

Note that due to current events, I am taking on higher traffic than usual, unexpectedly, and everyone is still trying to understand what the impact of the recent events are.
> articles are split into 4 or 5 subheaded sections; at least one of the subheadings begins with "which", "how" or "why":

This is interesting. I always thought it was structured this way to get into the Google Answerbox. I hated this trend because this type of repetitive articles defeated the whole purpose of hypertext in the first place.
Layoffs are rational and are common in downward cycles.

What downward cycle?

All I'm hearing is panic and hand-wringing about the economy, but I don't see what the problem is.

We had a "recession" in Q1 and Q2 of 2022. GDP dropped from 20,006 to a low of 19,895, then it went right back to its previous growth path.

Inflation is high, but it's dropping. It maxed out at 9.1% in June of 2022. Now it's down to 6.5% and expected to drop in the upcoming update (Feb 14).

We weathered a global pandemic, subsequent supply chain issues, and a war on the other side of the world that disrupted the energy economy. We're doing great, but people are fretting like it's 2008.
That’s a convenient narrative, and the answer is “yes, where possible” — but replacing a single family home with a duplex is theoretically possibly anywhere, and would be extremely profitable — but is practically impossible (for the reasons listed in my earlier post) in too many locales.

It’s only the huge developers that can acquire large parcels, or many parcels that can be joined together, that are able to push through the current nightmare to get projects done. The small developers that would be happy to do small conversions don’t bother — because they can’t spend 3 years fighting city hall with no guarantee of success, incurring taxes, fees, paying for staff, etc — for a measly $300k gross profit; it would be eaten up by all the waiting!
Well the problem is obvious --- hardware is lasting too long.

They just need to refine their non-removable batteries so they die faster/with fewer recharge cycles.

Antennas on cheap consumer devices are often just a trace on the PC board. Still not that hard to remove (could just cut the trace), but harder to do without damaging anything than unplugging an external one.

I think they were talking specifically about dating apps. You either go on a date right away or never talk to the person again. There is no room to slowly build a relationship after "bumping into each other" over time.
fly over :)))))
> Arranged marriages worked for generations.

Existed, sure. Whether they “work” or not is... well, for most of history no one was gathering data, but arranged marriage still exists now, and there is evidence linking it to higher rates of suicide, for women particularly.
Few feedbacks:
- It think description in the store is too exhaustive. Be more to the point.

- I like the concept as I was using mindfulness app mostly for the breathing exercises but ended up downloading the video and playing it to myself. I like that the whole app is just around this.

- I personally would enjoy a mood tracker and a daily notification or quiet time moment reminder to increase adherence.

- on top of this some motivational aspects and smileys can help :)

Good job by the way.

PS: I manage a patient facing MS app will many trackers:).
I'd likely go for a mobile first approach and start with:

create-universal-app : https://github.com/chen-rn/CUA

Which would give me:
- Tamagui
- React Native Web Lite
- Expo
- Next
- Solito
- Prisma
– Clerk
- tRPC

But I'd likely throw out Clerk for a cheaper option:

- Supertokens, since it's also easy (lots of enthusiastic reports about it), has a managed solution (which is cheaper than the alternatives), is secure and scalable (rotating refresh tokens with JWTs), open source, offers passwordless / magic links, and the architecture of Supertokens would allow me to simply and quickly eject to self-hosting it if/when I'd eventually need to (if the app ever reaches mass-market scale).

And I might throw out tRPC for the equivalent GraphQL and TypeScript inference experience (esp. if business strategy dictates I need a 3rd party API):

- GQty.dev on the client, for inferred queries/mutations. For rapid dev speed. Simple code example: https://gqty.dev/docs/intro Then move to URQL or Relay at scale, or just skip GQty and go with URQL from the start (if scalability trumps dev speed).

- Pothos http://pothos-graphql.dev on the server, for auto building the schema from your TS code (aka. code-first). Better than Nexus (e.g. Max Stoiber moved from Nexus to Pothos on his Bedrock starter template because Pothos is best in class: https://bedrock.mxstbr.com/tools/pothos/ ).

And I might throw out NextJS (Webpack) for the equivalent experience in Vite:

- vite-plugin-ssr, since both architectural control (libraries > frameworks) and Vite rocks. I'd likely then have to make solito-vite https://github.com/nandorojo/solito/discussions/157 to have a unified navigation between React Native and Web, but Solito is allegely tiny, so recreating it should be doable.

(If doing all of these replacements, maybe starting from scratch would be easier than modifying create-universal-app ... That said, I think if someone made a starter repo with the above choices it would be a real killer!)

Then I'd also likely use:

- Vercel (and try their Edge Functions, for a serverless sweet v8 isolates experience without slow cold starts), or maybe Cloudflare Workers (cheaper, slightly more hassle?) for hosting.

- Planetscale or Supabase for the DB. (Not brave enough to try EdgeDB or SurrealDB just yet, though EdgeDB is close..) Unless I had a specific use case where a more specialized/optimized DB would make sense.

This stack should stick even post-MVP, as it's not only optimized for a solo developer but for scalability.
+1 to Ben Eater! His videos helped me so much during university, it was like finding real gold between fool's gold.
It doesn't primarily attack lungs. It's novel, so it hasn't evolved a particular favourite target. It attacks everything. If you really want to hang a sign on it, a large number of symptoms are repercussions of vascular damage (in the lungs, brain, kidneys, etc). Many are arguing that Covid is far more a vascular problem than a lung ailment.
> I would contest this. Don't apps do exactly this, on a global scale? They bring people closer at all times, have regularity, and even have silly competitions, self-promotion , and all ways for people to 'hook up' with each other.

No. "Same place" means here "same people, repeatedly over prolonged periods of time". Dating apps are, AFAIK, not making same people to keep in contact "until the spark comes".
