The fact that you didn't comment on this yourself shilling TinyPilot is another glaring indicator that running a business might not be something you're cut out for. I can't manage to get a job at Google though so obviously we all have something we're really good at.

Posting here is FREE advertising, (I OWN a TinyPilot) why not include "building TinyPilot" or something "Raspi KVM" in the title? This is the lowest hanging fruit.
Thanks for sharing your experience Michael! I found out about TinyPilot a while back ago. I made a similar device for a completely different industry and learned that TinyPilot has nearly the same architecture but a completely different use case. Unfortunately, we weren't able to turn a profit with that device either. It seems streaming video is a tough market to crack :(

Oh yeah, existing plants can be operated at very low cost -- if they're sited in safe locations, and certified / refurbished for extended use beyond their design life, it definitely makes sense to keep them running for as long as possible. If Japan overbuilds their wind resources while maintaining their nuclear fleet, they could send the nuclear electrons the other direction and power Korea with nuclear.
If your attitude is adjust your workforce at will then who cares. If I can hire twice as many people and get X done twice as fast then do it. At some point it is likely X is done and I don't need the people. Dump them on the streets. Unethical maybe but not irrational.
Ask HN: Share your experience with Cloudflare workers and associated projects
Hi Everyone,

I wanted to use cloudflare workers + cloudflare pages + R2 + Durable Objects + D2. I want to know how has been your experience working with it? Is this stack good enough in terms of cost/performance/scalability. I know they look like great products.

Some of the points to provide reasonable feedback on :

1. Ease of development
2. Availability of third party library integrations
3. Scalability
4. Cost against a more traditional dedicated server based deployments

I am thinking of using cloudflare workers for pretty much all projects. Before I do that I wished to collect some feedback from real experience.

Idk what planet you're living on but every smoker I know spends closer to 300 a month on weed than 300 a year.
Unless youre smoking like a single puff on a 1 hitter once a day, or unless you are getting insane deals on ganj, this makes absolutely no sense to me.

100 in a month on alcohol seems about right if youre an alcoholic (or if you're buying your drinks at a bar)

Twitter API updates, February 13 2023
Not sure if I’ve seen an API update with such little in the name of clarity of direction.

——

Hello,

We are excited to share some updates regarding the Twitter API so you can keep building and innovating with us. Twitter offers one of the world’s most powerful data sets, and our recent updates will enable you to continue to tap into all its potential.

Basic access
On February 13, we will introduce our new low-cost, basic access that offers a low level of API usage, and full access to Ads API for a $100 monthly fee. This basic access will replace our previous access levels (Essential, Elevated, and Academic Research). We will provide instructions on how to subscribe to the basic access through our website on Monday.

Limited free access
As this is extremely important to the developer ecosystem, we will also introduce a new form of free write access to the Twitter API limited to Tweet creation of up to 1,500 Tweets per month for a single authenticated user token, as well as including free access to Login with Twitter. If you are currently on a free tier and you want to take advantage of the new limited free access, no actions are necessary - you will automatically be switched to the new free access on February 13.

Premium API deprecation
On February 13, we will also deprecate the Premium API access. If you’re subscribed to Premium, you can apply for Enterprise access here to continue using these endpoints.

We truly believe that the developer community can continue to create value with our Twitter API. We hope you are excited about this new chapter of the Twitter Developer Platform as we continue to invest in our ecosystem’s success. Please continue to follow @TwitterDev for the latest updates.

Thank you,
The Twitter Developer Platform team

The Django/Postgres-specific Datasette "cousin" Django SQL Dashboard [1] lives side-by-side with the Django admin so you could in theory use the Django admin for a bunch of crud and build Datasette-like dashboards next to it with relatively low code. It's mostly still the database model building in the first place that is the bottleneck.

To me - it seems the existential fear around climate change is the topic of the day for environmentalists only because nuclear ended up not gaining traction. Nuclear waste/proliferation is not the number one existential threat these days only because it's used so little (both because of PR issues and lack of economics/long term maintenance challenges).

The masses of environmentalists moved on from nuclear in the 80's but would surely return if nuclear regained traction.
Now that techcrunch has this hot scoop they'll have to hire people back..
I empathize as I had the same issues for decades. I grew up in the midwest and spent considerable time in NY too. I had three sinus surgeries before turning 30. I've been in SoCal for almost four years and my sinus issues rarely flare up.
Hollande wanted to diversify France because it's not and they had to pay for this stupidity and still do to this day.

Fessenheim is the perfect reason for why Hollande wanted to close some of those plants: old, accident ridden, one of those which have to be closed down in summer due to possible overheating of nearby rivers and to top that off: it's in a region which may have earthquakes for which it is not prepared...

> The issue with construction isn't that it's hard to build a safe power plant, it's that there's been no will from anyone, or active harm from incompetent shitheads.

Weird because there are plenty western countries which do have popular support for nuclear energy but still struggle with construction times and costs in astronomical ways.

Translated from this piece published in November 2022: https://www.tv2.no/nyheter/innenriks/settes-i-beredskap-rask...

So the planes were not in operational service at that time of the explosion.
Seems to me equally likely he's saying they'd pressure Germany to not use it or introduce sanctions (to bring an end to Nordstream 2, as a source of foreign currency for Russia and as leverage over the EU). Additionally wasn't Nordstream 2 not yet operational, and mostly Nordstream 1 that was sabotaged?
Absolutely no offense intended here, but I keep hearing about "bedtime stories" lately and I have a few questions since I am not a parent and my parents did not do this.

Is this a useful parenting technique or just a cute tradition? What problem(s) does it solve? If it's just trying to get the kids to fall asleep is it as effective as tiring them out some other way (games, exercise, big dinner, etc.)?

Is the goal to just steer their dreams somewhere peaceful? Wouldn't a story be less effective than just tucking them in and telling them words of affirmation? I would think there's too many things for them to worry about in a story.

As for literacy and imagination, I was given books and toys and stuff so idk... kind of drawing a blank on the value of this.
>That is a rhetorical tactic that kind of misses the point - it's not that weapons reactors produce fundamentally leakier waste than civilian reactors, it's that the military has a long history of not disposing of dangerous chemicals the right way. It happens with non-radioactive toxic waste too and a lot of bases and the areas around them are contaminated.

No, it's a plain statement, not a "tactic". Power plant waste is different from weapons waste, and disposing of power plant waste has never been a real problem. She's talking about power plant waste because one major barrier to replacing climate changing coal fired power plants is the usual indoctrination people face regarding nuclear waste, with no distinction drawn between power plants and nuclear weapons waste.

Talking about weapons reactors or the military not disposing of chemicals properly is entirely irrelevant to the article and the discussion at hand.
Substack stole their thunder.

Superficially Substack looks a lot like Medium, to the point where I'd say Substack was forced to prove it was something much better than Medium from the very beginning.

Substack gets much better engagement with subscribers because each Substacker has to earn each subscription. A Substacker can get a passionate audience that rewards good writing.

Substack though has the serious problem that somebody can make their own email newsletter + credit card gateway script for $20,000 or less so the kind of person who makes $1,000,000 a year on Substack can go their own way and keep more money. Substack makes almost all their money off two handfuls of writers so having the best ones walk out is a constant threat -- they are saying "we aren't a mailing list company" and would like to have a richer engagement platform, like OnlyFans, that substackers would find harder to replicate, but it's never easy to get people who play game A interested in playing game B, and if they do play game B they are as likely to do it on a "best of breed" platform for that game.
That's coming. Just wait.
I’ve always like PBR & MGD (when I’m feeling more premium) and really dislike IPAs. It’s really nice to see local small brewers finally making their way into pilsners and lagers. I’ve had some really good ones that remind me of the Leinenkugel’s of yesteryear.

In the Phoenix area Huss and The Shop are knocking it out of the park with their lagers. Spotted Cow is still the best; even though it’s an ale, it drinks like a lager.
> That is equivalent to “your stock portfolio will never grow”.

Realized gains are the only gains that are taxed. You aren't paying capital gains taxes on stocks when you aren't cashing them out.

So if a person has $100 million in stocks, some of which are up, and some of which are down. Decides to take out $1 million for a birthday party. And then wash trades a million dollar "paper loss" in their portfolio to cover for the $1 million they cashed out.

They'll still have practically the same portfolio, some of which has gained, and some of which has lost, minus the shares they sold to pay for the birthday party. If they invested well, it's possible that their overall portfolio has indeed gained. But thanks to the wash trade they don't have to pay any taxes on the $1 million in gains that they just cashed out.

> “Wash sale” prohibition harms ordinary stock owners, like me, much more than it harms Steve Balmer.

If you own it in a 401(k) or equivalent you can't claim capital gains losses as a deduction regardless (not until you start taking it out following retirement).
The game works fine, actually. It's getting played every day. I just spent so long getting it working that I never got good documentation. I have, like, a thousand photos of solder joints, pinout labels, the moment when the problem happens, etc. I recently stitched together some of the phone videos I took in the middle of the night while I was there and working on it.
There will be good documentation at some point. But not yet.
I mean maybe I'm just not up to date on recent history, but when was the last time we shot down anything in our our airspace prior to last week?
These errors largely sound like obfuscation... like a potentially true narrative with the names and places changed:

- Instead of revealing the fishing vessel, he describes a vessel that it couldn't have been.

- Giving the real timing would expose the vessel, so he gives timing that wouldn't have worked as a placeholder.

- Too many people were involved, because only a subset were actually involved - or maybe even just an analogous group.

Hersh eliminates the intelligence value by obfuscating exactly who did what and how, but provides lay readers (to whom the specific details don't matter) a story that conveys a general sense of how the mission was achieved.

> For jobs in or near city/urban areas it's probably fine.

I suspect most small commercial vehicles service this type of area. It takes a lot of service vehicles to keep a city functioning.

I have some friends who do residential window washing and other odd jobs like leaf blowing, Christmas light installation, power washing, and gutter cleaning. Even a long day for them is less than 50 miles of driving total.

When I worked on the farm the longest we ever drove in a day was 60 miles, occasionally with a trailer. But that was at low speed and only a few times a year. We could have used the grain trucks for that towing if the service truck didn't have the range.

Heck, I have seen a landscaper in my neighborhood that uses all electric tools and tows a trailer with his Tesla. You could eat his lunch with an EV swapped 2014 Silverado.

The one constant with all my work vehicle experience is that the owner is obsessed with fuel prices.

My boss on the farm would have loved the idea of electrical arbitrage. He was doing something similar with jerry cans and the three gas stations on the way to the shop.

Napkin math:

At 12k for an electric conversion, 50 miles a day, and $3.60 a gallon gas I figure a 8 year payoff for the driving we did on the farm. But we did a lot of summer driving. If gas prices went up to $5.00 a gallon the conversion could pay for itself in 5 years. For year-round work EV conversion pays off in 5 years at 12k conversion cost and $3.60 a gallon. At $5.00 a gallon it pays off in 4 years. If you drive 75 miles a day it could pay off in less than three years. At 100 miles a day and $4.00 a gallon payoff is in 2.5 years.

It's not about rent so much as density. Seattle has this "urban village" concept where designated areas have zoning that allows apartment buildings and usually has a commercial strip. I'd guess the urban village map [1] overlaps the 15-minute zones pretty closely.

Outside of the urban villages, Seattle is comprised of neighborhoods of single-family homes. Those areas can't all be 15-minute walkable because catchement areas don't have the population needed to support those amenities.

But it's also certainly a class issue. The people walking to the grocery store are mainly the poor, students, and a small core of idealists who go out of their way to live a "city lifestyle". Everybody else drives everywhere. Which has a strange effect that wealthier neighborhoods are less likely to have things like a pharmacy, because the wealthier are in the habit of driving everywhere. I get my prescriptions filled at Costco, five miles from my house, even though the closest pharmacy is one mile.

Wow, this looks like a great challenge, and I like how easy you made it to start coding in. The different colored track lines is really smart.
Or that Oliver Alexander is not a reporter, but a stenographer.
Condescension is actually rude, and for that reason not a smart way to persuade people you're right. It gets you upvotes on Twaddle or whatever, but only from people who already agree with you.
Some people work with "umbrella companies" in order to be able to fit better within the constraints of IR35.

The point of umbrella companies is for clients to make sure the work falls outside the scope of IR35 while dumping the corresponding massive tax hit and extra paperwork on the contractor/freelancer instead of paying what they're explicitly supposed to be paying themselves. It's basically industrial scale tax avoidance by large clients but since HMRC still gets its tax anyway the government doesn't seem to be in much of a hurry to fix it.

Of course this is the same government - or at least a lot of the same politicians forming a government - that seems to be in denial about the results of the recent IR35 changes while simultaneously complaining about how we have no growth in our economy and we need to support industries like science and technology more. Really? Go figure.
That’s why I suggested public companies only. Their stocks can be easily sold at any time.
Is the "ah ah ah youtube format" this thing?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sown0l_Sxak
I understand the nostalgia for a youth and place that is gone, but it’s interesting to point out in one sentence — “Austin was beset by racial divisions” and in the next paragraph discuss the hope that the city would institute strict zoning to keep out newcomers or as the writing says “if we won’t build it, they won’t come”. So much of this piece is dedicated to the problem of housing, but ignored is the problem in its infancy. If you want artists, creatives and musicians you need to build them cheap places to live.
It is rendered server side, but typically the server keeps track of only what needs to change and sends as small as possible an update to dynamically update the DOM. You end up with a user experience that feels close to an SPA, but a dev experience that feels close to traditional SSR.
The previous owners of my house are, from what I hear around town, in hiding from the EPA for kinda similar reasons. All kinds of interesting mail comes for them, only to be returned to sender.

> But radiation hasn’t harmed anywhere near as many people as fossil fuels.

The implication with both this statement and the map is that we should be comparing the total number of people who died from radiation, and the total from fossil fuels, and see which is bigger, but there are other ways of evaluating (potential) harms.

Nuclear power and other radtech is not equally common around the world, and neither are fossil fuels. In the context of promoting transition from one to the other, the important question is the relative harm of these two choices as a function of their deployment over time. There have been events from minor leaks to world-changing disasters, all of which are contingent on human factors which vary widely across time and space. So it's not clear that increasing global rollout of nuclear power will be as consistently safe in the future as it has been in the recent past.
Your baseless theories ascribing borderline malicious intentions on the part of actors like environmentalists and nuclear construction interests are amusing, but I fail to see why they should be taken seriously.
Some of the greatest bull-shitters work for intelligence.

Let me give you some direct feedback on this then - it reads as 'content' and not an article. ChatGPT seems to blow out word count in a fluent way but the resultant text seems to have much lower information density, the sort of thing you might expect from a student learning to write paragraphs. Genuinely I asked if it was AI generated because it felt like filler.

Perhaps you need an editing down phase?
15k people. It's spread out but is called a "city" on the sign. All the grocery stores are centralized and beside each other on the main drag.
Call me chicken little but my beef with nuclear has always been about the people not the science. If we paint the Earth with reactors it’s a statistical likelihood that through corruption or incompetence someone will screw up. We can’t even keep 50 year old bridges from collapsing in the U.S and meanwhile every time a republican gets into office they bleed FEMA and the EPA dry. We currently have 55 power plants total but would need about 100x that to even put a dent in our electricity bill. Who’s going to build them? Contractors? How are those F-35s Lockheed made going? Another issue is that there are significant odds that global society is on a path towards collapse or backslide due to climate change. If we entered a period of catabolic collapse and governments around the world no longer had the money or infrastructure to manage the upkeep of these facilities what would happen. You can’t just flip a switch and turn the whole thing off. I’m not someone who thinks the world is going to end in a day but look how quickly things have deteriorated in Pakistan recently. Would governments have plans in place to deal with reactors if their economy suddenly collapsed? Honestly the biggest thing to me though is that nuclear is greedy. We’re trying to find cheat codes to avoid conservation and continue consuming copious amounts of electricity. It would be vastly more cost-effective and far less time consuming to dump all that money into energy reduction measures but that would disrupt capitalism and America’s addiction to endless consumption. Residential energy usage in the U.S is higher than commercial usage. Imagine if we banned cars in cities tomorrow, dumped money into public transit and high speed rail, banned meat, built sustainable urban housing, forced tech companies to do away with planned obsolescence, stopped flying unnecessarily, and so on. We could solve climate change in a decade through conservation but that would destroy the profits of those in power. Nuclear might sound great on paper but it’s the planetary equivalence of taking tums instead of putting down the Costco hotdog.
Sure, but I'd say widely ignored in practice? Crypto's stigma feels FAR worse.

Getting rid of macros (and all of their well documented pitfalls) is good.

Getting rid of the preprocessor and conditional compilation may not have been necessary. (as the feature is needed anyway and have to be implemented in a different manner)

The thing is that comptime, even if better than macros because everything is written in the same language, might end up not being much better than C macros.

Many of the macro pitfalls still applies, if you think about it...
