> some external HDDs that I keep outside the home.

Personally, I'm not remotely meticulous enough for that to work. Properly rotating drives sounds like a lot of work if you want to be rigorous about it. You start with running the backup to drive A, then shipping that drive a couple hundred miles away (to be properly location redundant), and then next week, run the backup to drive B, ship that drive a couple hundred miles away, but then at some point, you're going to want drive A back, so you can rotate drives and put a more recent backups on it. How do you retrieve those external drives, and consistently?

And then while the drive is in transit, and hopefully not lost, you don't have access to it, it's not an online (referring to its availability) backup solution.

So I mean, I do perform backups to an external HDs which I also keep offsite, but because that's nowhere near as rigorous as what teams of engineers and data center techs can do with a much larger budget, I supplement my backups with a cloud storage solution. And I encourage you to do so as well (especially considering encrypted backup services), but you do you.

As far as the mdisc; I mean it's interesting, but I'd also consider getting an LTO tape library. They're more purpose build for backing things up, and my personal opinion is they're going to be better for longevity given everything else.
Do you have reading comprehension problems? It's not about when the driver arrives, it's about not standing intentionally with passengers wasting their time by design, in the middle of the road. I feel like I'm getting downvoted by people with reading comprehension level of bots.

It's better to have an optimistic schedule that sometimes gets late than a pessimistic schedule that always wastes everyone's time making pubic transport extremely slow in all circumstances.

It's not about the driver. It's about the passengers. It's about not stopping idly during your route with people on the bus. Buses aren't trains, they usually don't need to stop at all stations and the difference between stopping in all stations and not doing it is huge.

If your train schedule is so bad that a train, which has no traffic at all, can come 30 minutes early from schedule, then it could always do that and you're planning something wrong.
Maybe they're like those people you meet that "hate drama" yet it somehow follows them around every turn.
My perspective here was that 1 database query implemented by a framework with: good caching, perhaps canonicalisation to ensure small caches (e.g. query parameters ordering?), the right database indexes, the right response behaviour, etc, would be fine, but implementing this well in a middleware added by developers using a framework would be hard to do well and could be significantly higher cost.

In my experience, implementing things like access control, requiring a single database query, in a middleware that applies to every request, does actually become a noticeable overhead and problem at some point. Sure many pages might be doing 20 queries so adding one more isn't a problem, but at some point there might be an API that needs to respond quickly, does <1 query on average with caching, and therefore has _double_ the cost with this feature. Because the URLs are supposed to be opaque in the general case, this still needs to be applied everywhere.

This can definitely all be optimised, but I think doing this at the framework level is a much better solution.
Exactly, as soon as were to butcher my english, a certain amount of credibility will be incurred, even if the communicators are aware of it. It could probably eloquently explain the workings of a Retro Encabulator fluidly and you’d nod a few times and thinking it’s fine.

If words not right said for listen like now, think you might not be smart as is tho.
If those are the content moderators responsible for the political bias and censorship we saw (and was discussed on HN many times) pre-Musk, yes.
It is a different "stream".

The OP means the Phoenix Liveview new "stream" feature that allows you to efficiently update a list of HTML components without having to keep the whole list in memory, but only explaining the changes you want to do.

The double sense of that name will trip some newcomers for sure.

Happy that you like it though!

I was using Quad9 until they had infra issues where latency skyrocketed from ~40ms to an unstable ~250ms... soon after I noticed that the routing was changed to another country with a latency of stable ~70ms.

A DNS resolver in another country breaks several things for me such as Wi-Fi Calling and certain CDNs that do not support EDNS Client Subnet, so I'm using Cloudflare Gateway DNS (DoH) for the time being.
Have you tried the official guides in the doc? It should be up to date.
Also - does it really really matter? 101% worker vs 95% worker but one is an insufferable pr*k who makes everyone else 75% workers ...

Everyones approach looks like it works because if everyone is between a 90-110% worker and the team gets along and works together you will get solid results.
Yes, it is quicker... I don't know if it is because you do not have such an experience to compare with but is quicker and easier. If your hands are full of things then it does save a few seconds.

>The value in understanding mathematics is not the ability to be able to recite the quadratic formula or to be able to perform long division in your head, it's knowing when to use the formulas and understanding their applications in your daily life and work.

You can do both, really. You should be able to recite the mathematics you use in your daily work without having to look it up. I've never met a good scientist who wasn't able to.

EDIT: okay, may be one exception is for example something like tedious calculations from QFT or something, but you should be able to gesture at general parts of it, you should be able recite certain simple equations or particular approximations. If you have to refamiliarize yourself with your work every time you look at it, I do not know how you can advance in your research.
this reminds me of the anti-tracking legislation, let's be honest it's a complete failure and further forces people into large silos

at the end of the day legislation won't save you and there is no substitute for competition, this is true for tracking policies and AI too

even for surveillance this is true - surveillance is most dangerous when it cannot be countered with individual citizen empowerment, by either having the choice to avoid it or to flip some surveillance back on the State or corporation
This isn't really how it works though. She would take AT LEAST half of what you currently have, including stuff you had before you met. You would also have some responsibility for providing for her and your children in the future at a similar standard of living to her current one. You would have pension liability and could lose part of your business if you have one. This could likely be the case even if she was unfaithful. Not meaning to preach, just some things that I found out after the fact, that I never thought about when "young and in love".
Jack the Ripper was a very successful murderer.
It isn't a magic bullet. I've had people perform well then tail off and while it may be a failure of my management that I couldn't help them perform better again, it isn't the norm and replacing those people isn't easy.

Rightly so, it should be hard to fire people and should require first showing evidence of trying to work together and help in good faith.
This is the circuit used in most DC fast chargers:

https://www.researchgate.net/publication/261875419/figure/fi...

If any of the 6 transistors on the left fail, you simply turn off all of the other 5, and your car is safe.

If the bottom right transistor fails short, you will get an overcurrent event in the top right transistor, and must turn it off before it blows up - which will typically need to be done in nanoseconds.

If the bottom right transistor fails open, the top right transistor will blow up unless you have a backup body diode across the bottom right transistor.

If the top right transistor fails open, nothing bad happens.

If the top right transistor fails short, you need to immediately turn on all the other transistors, and deliberately blow a fuse on the AC input (this will be destructive - every transistor will fail most probably).

> You could theoretically have a functioning one as long as you build way more than people need, housing then becomes elastic despite the land below being non elastic but the math quickly breaks down.

I doubt this would ever work out, as a high availability elsewhere won't help here. People pick a place to large parts due to job availability, social factors (close to friends/family), infrastructure (shops, restaurants, sports, schools, cultural activity) which is hard to replicate to some scale.

On a very narrow scale there can be an effect, say in Tokyo, where JR builds some railway station and develops that into a new urban center with lots of local infrastructure and connection to job, school, friends, but that is still benefiting to proximity to the other.
Well, the Steam Deck is meant as a dedicated gaming PC, and explicitly supports replacing the OS, so Windows performance is eminently relevant.

Also, every single reference to Windows is in the context of testing whether the performance issues they're seeing are OS or hardware related, which is exactly the sort of analysis work I'd like to see more of.
I wonder if people still buy discrete sound cards today.
You should try working in an international company, on the Europe side, and communicate with the US side.

You'll quickly learn that what the EU does is very very very good for privacy,
I have contacts in a major company and they were shocked at how the US branch operates, they have absolutely no sense of privacy, no anonymisation, no limitation on what is stored or tracked, no consent, &c. they just scrape and store as much as they can for "future use"

Can you elaborate? Everyone of the banks I use have an affordance on their website/app that allows me to see my credit score, history, etc. The bank puts it pretty front and center, so if even juts viewing it has a negative impact, why do you think the bank would make it so easy?

if we set aside morals, is it scientifically possible to clone them as of now ?
I don't see how your comment contributes to the discussion. It seems aimed at shutting it down only allowing praise.

The scope of the creation and whether it actually produced something novel is quite important to the discussion and part of the claim (although the author is very open to be proven wrong, in the article).

Your claim n the second to last paragraph is false. That's relevant. This is HN.
All I ever hear about the EU and tech is in the context of regulating something or another, don’t remember the last time they loosened a rule or two to make innovation easier.
FWIW, if nothing goes wrong, the non-USA Librem 5 should be in stock in Q2 already. The official lead time is very defensive at this point because the project already suffered from plenty of unforeseen delays.
The comment I replied to talked about subletting in general, then about special AirBnB clauses, I was only talking about the subletting part.

I actually like "maybe later". As soon as it's provided with "no" together (which IME usually is the case), I have no issue with it.

tracking pixel ? Are you sure you know what you're talking about ?

You can do `-no-assets` or `-no-html` or even delete that file. All the generated code is here to get you started and generate the default "hello world" page. But none of it is necessary.
Max has graphics support and is much used by artists and people making arty minimalist (interactive) media.

TD has more of a game-ish aesthetic. Max/Jitter is better for chopping up and distorting video streams and grunge-ifying them, with some simple renders and FX on top.

As a music system - it's in a weird place, because it's incredibly awkward if you're used to even the most rudimentary coding. A construct that takes a minute or two in Python can take five or ten times longer in Max.

But it has some decent DSP features, including custom DSP coding, so it's a good way to get certain things done. Or at least prototyped.
They would mind the price. All of the videos at the time of announcement highlighted how hard they tried to keep the price down.
Oh I love this! I share the same opinion on most of your design principles.
A shame if a child that accidentally threw a ball in your garden steps on them, or even just the overweight neighbours cat. Or a visitor stumbles on them duling a bbq. But such casualties are apparently a small price to pay for feeling safe.

Unfortunately it is for the people who have gotten their mortgages at those lower rates. It's a ticking bomb for many of them.
I think in Finland having too many credit lines would actually hurt you with loans. However well you have handled those. As important factor is total amount of loans or capacity to get them.
Oops, thank you
I recently played through Death Stranding which is more recent, better graphics and seemingly better optimized than Fallout 3. I'm pretty sure if the CPU can handle Death Stranding (and other more complex games) without problem, it could handle Fallout 3 if the programming was on point.
Doesn't change the fact that ".... before that all games were rendered in software." isn't true.
Tbf i think using a static website like you describe is a better use case anyway for this. Phoenix and co are for things that are quite dynamic or personalised to a user.

Ecommerce is not that :)
> I don't like this possiblity to use so many syntaxes good

There other side of the coin is having specialized syntax for each construct. For example, PHP currently lists [56 keywords][0], and each keyword generally comes with their own grammar rules (I picked PHP because it was an example you mentioned above).

Elixir, on the other hand, has [15 keywords][1]. Defining modules, functions, conditionals, and so on, all use the same syntax rules. At the end, you end-up with less syntax because the whole language is built on the few affordances above. The other benefit is that developers can also extend the language consistently, since the constructs for designing and extending the language are the same.

> The creator of Elixir himself answered that one of the things he thinks he could do better at the beginning was to make the syntax more strict

If I could go back in time, I would have made it strict since the beginning, but we have already made it strict over time through deprecation warnings in the last 7-8 years. Given a time machine, I'd probably not have changed the notes you mentioned above. :)

Practically everything will be marked by it. Using `Vec`? Marked. Reading file? Marked. Printing something to stdout? Marked.

The idea behind Rust's unsafe is to cover unsafe bits in safe API which (assuming correctness of the unsafe code) can not be misused to cause memory issues in safe Rust.
No, because we had low interest rates before Trump and didn’t have the same low end job growth. “Good for the economy” isn’t the relevant concept. Immigration can grow the economy overall, while putting lower end workers in a relatively worse position.
I can relate with author. It takes me a while to actually synthesize questions thrown at me, and sometimes I look like a fool staring back silently but I'm enumerating through a bunch of responses in my head. Ultimately, it's like a chess game where I don't instinctively make a move just yet.

I bought one that's not only discrete, but external: I wanted S/PDIF output, and neither my laptop nor my dock had it. While we hit diminishing returns on output sound quality a long time ago, the occasional physical footprint advantage of a discrete part can be useful.

This is a good idea that I hadn't fully considered. There are a few issues that make it tricky in the general case though – for existing implementations there may not be a prefix that can be used, and if we're talking about adding prefixes to all new systems, we could just use frameworks that have built-in support for this.

Additionally, web scraping isn't perfect. It assumes static content, which may not be possible with ACLs or other behaviour. It also assumes that there's a single link entry point to the content, or that all the necessary link entry points are known. It could also be very wasteful – storing a tweet in a database is much smaller than storing the JSON response for that tweet, or the HTML of the page the tweet is in.

This is an interesting idea to consider, and it could be simpler in some cases, but I'm not sure it's a better solution in all cases.
It puts the user in the right domain for computer music, which is music/sound made through direct coding and control of software data structures.

The point of computer music is to invent new things that can't be done elsewhere with software, not to copy existing things that have already been done.

If you just want to mess with loops and plug-ins, use Ableton/Logic/Cubase/etc. They use the studio/sampler metaphor, which is completely different.
Everyone did it.
It's actually an excellent chip but I find I have frequent audio problems, with the left channel dropping out in stereo mixes.
It's not quite comparable, but you can get free audiobooks through your local library via the Libby app (US) and listen to books at 2x (300-400 WPM).

It's slower than speed-reading, but my ears are available for 2-3 hours per day, so I end up "reading" a lot more with this strategy.
Your stance reminds me of an adjacent concept:

Ristretto is not a curve, it's a group.

Curve25519 is a _curve_ that implements a non-prime order _group_. Ristretto255 is a prime-order _group_ that uses Curve25519 as an underlying _curve_.

In other words, Ristretto is a pair of encode/decode functions that map points on _curve25519_ to _ristretto group elements_ and vice versa. It's called "ristretto" because it's a restricted (specific to curve25519) version of Mike Hamburg's Decaf format that "reduces amount of coffee/cofactor by 4" for Edwards curves.

People sometimes tell me I explain or write well. That's usually because I don't understand the thing I am dealing with and have to explain them to myself. And I want to really understand which can make me seem "slow".
I don't know whether your model is accurate, but it's plausible enough that the paper should address it.
Exactly. When the first news came out about it's ability to "understand" code, find bugs and improve uppon it, I tested it with some snippets of mine. It just gave boilerplate best practices you find on 100 of blogs, but was not able to make meaningful contribution. It claimed to have introduced a feature while only having found another way to write the same snippet. On other things it straight up invented variables & functions that didn't exist.

As long as the task is in it's training set, it can give you a decent answer, but it can't code it just mimics doing so...
Do you realize how funny that is coming from twelfth place?
Agree. Pizza baking is kind of the same, it is impressive how deep down the rabbit hole you can go with it.
That is what I consider part of the process. You learn to write because it is a requisite skill and part of your craft, but eventually, as a professional, it becomes part of what you use to distinguish yourself. It is a part of your professional persona, in the same way writing in creative senses (blogs, novels, etc) is.

It's one thing to automate dry responses (email bots have been doing it for decades now) but automating writing in your career work leaves little left of your career, and further, it dilutes what you add in value to everyone else you work with.

My 2005 vintage T42p wants to have a word with you. In all its years it has seen the following parts replaced: the (PATA) 2.5" hard drive, now using an SSD through a PATA-SATA adapter.

That's it.

I still regularly use this machine even though it not longer is my main portable device. The only thing keeping me from doing so is its 32-bit CPU which now that 32-bit support has mostly gone the way of the dodo. I much prefer its 4:3 form factor 1600x1200 screen, keyboard and construction over the P50 I'm using in its stead.

Show HN: GitHub EMarket Project
Dear Colleagues. I want to introduce you to our project on GitHub, which was founded in 2018. This is an online store engine project made in PHP and JS. We also used Bootstrap 5. I would like to describe everything in detail, but it seems to me that on the project page it will be more convenient to get acquainted with the project itself and its capabilities. I hope that our project can be useful to many developers. Sincerely, Alexander.
