I used Mercurial at work for over 5 years and never once had a stack trace.

The fact you mention it in reaction to a Git detached HEAD suggests you think that is an error condition / bug in Git. Although I hate Git, I know it well enough to know that a detached HEAD is not a bug and it can even be useful sometimes. Or maybe you're referring to half-finished rebases - those exist in Git too. If you did think these are bugs in Git then I think that proves how confusing Git is!

Git won over Mercurial because (1) it was released before Mercurial (by a fairly short margin), (2) it was written by Linus and that's a level of celebrity to devs that is hard to beat, and (3) it's the basis of GitHub (partly because of 1 and 2). If the top open source hosting service were HgHub, or Git had been written by some other developer, things could well be different. (But now that we're in this situation, I agree it's better to use Git like everyone else even though it's an inferior tool.)
That's buying and selling. So, whoever is facilitating the buying and selling needs to keep Tether inventory on hand so their customers can trade crypto generally. Those holders of Tether inventory -- exchanges -- will be "free" to redeem their Tether when crypto transaction volumes decline on their exchanges. So when the crypto ecosystem broadly loses cachet, beyond a certain threshold, exchanges that hold Tether inventory will be "free" to liquidate.

The issue at that point will be that exchange volume is the business value behind the "paper" that justifies Tether's USD peg. So declining crypto trade will generate sell volume against Tether and also pressure the peg.

Which is all another way of saying-- this is like when Enron or whatever other financial scandal you pick-- gave shares to an off-balance-sheet vehicle and loaned itself money from the vehicle. It's designed to fool someone into injecting real money into a funny system. Thus, an alternate mode of failure is that whoever did the injection wakes up and calls the bluff, notwithstanding the technical quasi-market-based peg.
Understand your point, though you might make voting requirements that for example require a residence duration. Problem with that is it would likely result use of cost of living increases that would make residence unaffordable by default.

That said, would be extremely interesting if the whole world was allowed to vote how things would go, never know until you actually try. Likely closest existing comparable would be the UN, not because of it’s democratic representation, but because on the global nature of its membership. Also, easily see other countries actually making dual citizenship illegal, which would mean to
They are clarifying that it should not affect SSO, but games relying on Twitter SSO are already moving towards deprecating it for fear.
I've recently dropped and then readded (a few months later) a zone to Cloudflare for a domain only I ever owned. And they refused to add it for "policy" reasons, so I had to wait a week or so until Cloudflare just unlocked it without providing any rationale.

It's not a company I trust to not randomly screw me over out of the blue anymore.
Perhaps OP is saying that that reference means a little more if you've read Don Quixote?
I see a lot of work going on making the compiler faster (which looks hard at this point), but I wish I just would be able to make correct changes without needing to recompile code at least.

The extract function tool is very buggy. As I spend a lot of time refactoring, maybe putting time in those tools would have a better ROI than so much work into making the compiler faster.
Last but not least, Stripe support.
I went to look at your website to see what the service was about… but of course it’s down :(
Maybe a playpen? Or high chair.

Or avoid cooking in real time. Prepare food at other times. Have healthy snacks available.

Or use things like steamers and slow cookers or oven, all of which need less continuous attention than frying or boiling stuff.
My favourite:

S: "Do you think this show constitutes cruelty to animals?"

W: "Not unless you're watching it."

Comes to mind pretty much any time I see an advert for a reality TV show, a lame YouTube video, etc, etc.

Not always fair, but always fun to remember.
I swear I watched a fun documentary about some guy who travelled there just for the fun of it, but I can't find it. However, it seems radio hams don't disappoint and travelled there in 2016 to get some QSOs: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ro5jmvu4jkM
Even on a much smaller scale, the algorithm is incentivised to radicalise you. A few years ago I would watch videos of helicopters with my 4-5 year old son because he loved helicopters and enjoyed watching them lift things, cut trees, put our fires, etc, etc.

Then the suggested videos started including helicopter crash compilations and he was super keen to see those and lost interest in the more "vanilla" helicopter videos. That was the end of that avenue of entertainment and it's only now he's 11-12 that he's getting some limited access to youtube again.
Aluminium melts at temperatures that, as far as ovens are concerned, can be classified as "tame".
Sure, the oven needs to be built heat-resistant, but a melting point of just 660C allows things like uncooled structural steel to be used. This is so tame, that the molten salt type nuclear reactors (well, some of them) are able to serve as a heat source for such an aluminium recycling oven. 10 years ago there were coal power plants in active development that used high-pressure (around 350 atmospheres; 75% higher than what consumer-grade pressure washers tend to max out at) supercritical (700C) water to drive the first stage of their turbines, in an effort to extract more of the coal's chemical energy through exploiting a greater temperature drop. The aluminium oven does not need to handle such severe pressures, or contact with fast-flowing liquid that is as corrosive as water at those conditions (they can use a gas between the heat source and the aluminium, and fire brick style material between the aluminium and the structural walls of the molten-aluminium-bucket).
Cloudflare: MitMaaS

It's sort of a pet peeve of mine that "the immune system" is somewhat misleading nomenclature in that if I say digestive system or circulatory system, it's possible to name all the organs in that system. There's no similar list of organs of the immune system because it just means "how the body defends itself."

Your skin is a first line of defense against invaders.

The mucus in your respiratory tract and gut is a first line of defense.

Your bone marrow is where white blood cells get produced.

Etc.

The antigens we produce are not the entirety of the immune system. It's like saying the alarm is all that's involved in securing a building and hand waving off the walls, doors, locks, etc.

There are myriad ways to trick the white blood cells and the body also has ways of killing stuff other than the white blood cells.

For my example, no, it's not pertinent.

People with cystic fibrosis are prone to being too acid. Everyone in the CF community knows this but it's not deemed medically significant and goes largely untreated.

The body will strip the bones of calcium to mitigate excess acidity in the blood and people with CF are prone to very early onset osteoporosis. But it's also known that high levels of calcium inside a cell are associated with cell death.

Instead of drawing the conclusion that calcium is being used to buffer the cell against chemical derangement, some people with CF try to limit consumption of calcium because they they the calcium causes cell death rather than thinking the calcium signifies a desperate attempt to mitigate extreme acidity.

It's 3am. This no doubt rambles.
The article completely avoids the question of whether the balloon has any capability at all to intentionally change course.
"Spin" is the presentation. Calling it "uncontrolled immigration" is to put a maximally emotive framing on the subject. It's intended to trigger negative emotions and conjure up images of hordes of people arriving in chaotic fashion ("uncontrolled").
I replied when this has no upvotes and was nowhere near the front page.
I admit that the never ending algorithm of YouTube is problematic, but your point about kids fixating on things highlights it is nothing new. When I was a kid it was TV and video games. We had rules about when both could be used, and they were often taken away as punishments.

As we got older, my siblings and I had full on fights over who got the use the phone and when.

My point is YT is just another thing parents need to manage.

Show HN: DriftDB – an open source WebSocket backend for real-time apps
Hey HN! I’ve written a bunch of WebSocket servers over the years to do simple things like state synchronization, WebRTC signaling, and notifying a client when a backend job was run. I realized that if I had a simple way to create a private, temporary, mini-redis that the client could talk to directly, it would save a lot of time. So we created DriftDB.

In addition to the open source server that you can run yourself, we also provide https://jamsocket.live where you can use an instance we host on Cloudflare’s edge (~13ms round trip latency from my home in NY).

You may have seen my blog post a couple months back, “You might not need a CRDT”[1]. Some of those ideas (especially the emphasis on state machine synchronization) are implemented in DriftDB.

Here’s an IRL talk I gave on DriftDB last week at Browsertech SF[2] and a 4-minute tutorial of building a cross-client synchronized slider component in React[3]

Right, it's possible for the tax code to be complex but still present a simple user interface. That means that it would, hypothetically, be possible for the e-file process to include a simple user interface (using, as you say... software).

If you chase up the comment chain you replied to, you're really agreeing with me using a tone of disagreement. sockaddr says that filing has to be complex because tax codes are complex. We both disagree with that.

it is not the typical "song radio" approach that would provide more a popularity / artist similarity based playlist but a real "similar song" google like search.
I think that is valuable to discover new music, especially to find unknown artists. But if someone were to embed it into streaming clients that would need to be a different feature too, probably more search related.
I was lucky to attend a series of jazz workshops by Conrad Cork at the start of my playing career. Conrad authored "Harmony with LEGO Bricks"[1] approach to jazz improvisation and used the workshops to test his teaching technique on live subjects at the college where I was working. In a nutshell the approach links listening, understanding and improvising. The book is pretty dense, and I feel very grateful to have had the benefit of the author explaining it to me.

I play jazz as a semi-pro but have backed some pretty hardcore players from time to time. Conrad sadly died in 2021[2] but I've had decades of benefit in terms of confidence on the bandstand from that course.

Eating is immensly boring and I hated it as a kid. I wish I had something to distract myself from the boredom of eating.

Despite not having anything like that as a child I now, at 43, eat all my meals in front of a computer while gaming or watching or reading something.
Probably just BS by GPT3.
It's the fundamental difference between WSL1 and WSL2. As designed in the 90s, the Windows NT kernel can have different subsystems that offer different userspace APIs to different software. Originally there were the Win32 subsystem, the Security subsystem, the Posix subsystem and the OS/2 subsystem. The latter two fizzled out, but WLS1 is basically just another subsystem that provides a linux-compatible API to the Windows kernel. As it turns out providing full compatability is really hard though, so WSL2 is a complete rewrite, ignoring the subsystem concept. It basically just runs linux in Hyper-V, and adds some UI/UX to make that convinient.

That Windows is then running virtualized is just how Hyper-V works, as soon as you turn on Hyper-V the host Windows runs as a guest in Hyper-V, though with special privileges [1]

Because a child doesn't know when to stop.

As an adult, I can always feel the pull of real life. If I keep watching YouTube or playing video games I know it's going to impact my job, wife, kid, etc. Some adults aren't even that good at regulating this, but I think kids are, on average, way worse about it. Many don't know real consequences or regrets for failing to manage their time.

Although I'll admit I do agree with your comment in the sense that I think I should stop using YouTube entirely. People are discussing how it can really mess with a kid's brain, and I don't feel like I'm immune as an adult. Yes, I have more discipline than a child, but this feels like it can be a cheap acknowledgement made as a rationalization, like a chainsmoker saying his lungs are stronger than a kid's, or an alcoholic saying the same of their liver.

Weird, when I visited the site it was already Feb 3rd in my time zone (Europe/Oslo), and the local time in my time zone was 6:15 am, but it said that it was Groundhog Day.

When I visited the site again now, a few hours later but still Feb 3rd in my time zone, with the current time being 12:12 pm (middle of the day), now it says instead when the next Groundhog Day is (“364 DAYS UNTIL GROUNDHOG DAY 2024”).

Not sure if it is intended exactly like that in terms of time zones or not.

Regardless, cool site and it was interesting to learn a bit more about Groundhog Day. Thank you :)

You can't square that circle because the money laundering controls aren't solvable enough to be in a regular jurisdiction and have psudonymous permissionless blockchain transfers.

I was a single Dad of a 3yo (long before YouTube) and I can't imagine having done it without having some form of electronic entertainment to keep the kid distracted. I suppose I would've relied on other family or expensive childcare options.
There's a concept in engineering called "Reißlänge" (≈ breaking length), which is how long a cable of a certain material can be before it would rip due to its own weight if suspended by one end [0].

The values for some materials are actually much higher than I remembered, with Kevlar reaching ~250 km. From a purely hold-its-own-weight perspective it seems like it might actually be possible!

Obviously there's a ton of other problems that wouldn't make it feasible, the first I can think of is the weight of a 50 km tether wouldn't allow the balloon to even take off. I'm sure you can think of another million reasons it wouldn't work.

With GitHub, sponsorships are either one-off payments or regular subscriptions. FWIW I've only ever been paid once through GitHub sponsors and that was a one-off payment. This payment ($500) was actually from GitHub itself because they use the software I work on.
I'm always unsure how to read this.
One one hand it is nice that there is someone in the company willing to do work which is in the interest of the customer (of sorts).
But on the other hand it shows the company is willing to let quality, support, customer care, service and everything else decline but when it comes to public image is prepared to do everything within their power, even (yuck) their job in order for damage control.
Now that I'm writing this I know exactly how to read comments like "now that it's in the public eye, we'll do something - maybe".
It is so often I see kids sitting in buggy chairs wearing headphone with a phone.

It is unwise. There is a bias. Not just against conservative opinion, but all political opinion. People are unwilling to change their own opinion, so debates are nonsensical, with people finding evidence to support a false belief rather than acknowledge that their belief could be wrong. Everyone gets further grounded in their opinion and more polarized.
I don't buy that reason. Malicious bot owners will just run automated browsers and use the regular UI, or MITM the private API used by the apps.

Sure, they're probably using the public API right now, but that's just for convenience. Bad actors will ways find a way, this only hurts legit bot owners.
I have received almost the exact same message, but not from Coinbase. I’ve never fallen for a scam, but I fell for this one. I was in a rush at work read the message, called the phone number and realized with all the background chatter it was a scam call center and hung up. I was so shocked I had fallen for it, I wrote my family a summary laughing at myself that even a tech guy who watches YouTube scam revenge videos can get fooled.
Keep in mind that the people working on rustc are not the same working on rust-analyzer, even if there's some overlap in contributors and there's a desire to share libraries as much as possible. Someone working on speeding up rustc is unlikely to have domain expertise in DX and AST manipulation, and vice-versa.

Disclaimer: I'm Jacek's brother - so I know the story. What impressed me, though, is his human-centric approach to creating the Warsaw team. I visited his office and experienced a lot of thought on how to make the office and structure designed for people. There was a whole voting process on how to paint different rooms. Except for the ones visible in the blog post, there is even more visual diversity (trees, rainbows, Sierpiński's triangle, Lem's planet). Or that except for typical IT spaces for beer and entertainment, there were (more popular in general) places to relax, and also ones for employee's children. He created a culture that takes workers' needs and work-life balance seriously. (Here, on HN, it may sound like blasphemy.)

Sure, I know I am biased here. But I have also heard the story for a few friends of mine, and their account was similar.
As a business user of Google Workspace, it is a very different situation. Any one of our Super Admins (we have 3) can quickly unlock an account of any employee that has been locked out. We can also adjust the sensitivity of the auto lockout. For example, we currently get notifications of "suspicious" logins but do not auto lockout the user.

> Drawing a map, recreating it inside a first person shooter, then spending hours playing (training) memorizing the map? I believe anyone could see that as a terroristic threat.

I'd like to point out that "legal" means "not forbidden by law", which in our default-allow mode means "no law exists that prohibits it". This affects both criminal charges for playing CS in a school-like map as well as the behaviour of the school in response to that.

The correct way to assess legality is therefore not "anyone could see" but "is there a law that prohibits it?"

(Note that the hurdle to expulsion may be lower than for criminal charges.)

We didn't, we just read and understood it - in particular, just because a site is classified "socmed", doesn't mean any kind of contact with it will instantly materialize those negative impacts you mention. Or that just because a site is classified "vod", it's substantially safer.
