I first found Podman when looking for alternatives when Docker broke on my laptop in the midst of all the Docker Desktop licensing changes. Frankly, I use it because it has been more stable lately, not because of any long run marketing campaign from Red Hat. I suspect a lot of its userbase will be in a similar place as the experience with Docker continues to degrade.

I look at it like so:

But all operate under the same restrictions and set of considerations.
It could have been designed with a self-host option or a torrent/ipfs backend for near-zero hosting costs and still be 'just works' for the user.
It's nice to see how GPT-4 fulfills one of the crucial requirements of a real Turing test: to knowingly lie to a human denying its being a robot.
I studied AI ethics (a recent grad course) and it was all about manipulating data to get the desired outcome. I am not sure how that can be even philosophically fair. It wasn't about re-weighting samples to make overlooked rare examples count, it was literally "I want this outcome, what do I need to do to data to get there?". I wouldn't base any real-world decision making process on such data.

I think docker is potentially just another example of service that can change terms and leave you in the lurch. Imho we are entering a time where portability and the ability to control your own destiny is going to be very important. That means when you do commit to a provider, or host, make sure you can move off. Maybe use methods that mask the end user from back-end provider changes or shenanigans, etc.
Although it UK appears to be a democracy but in reality it is not. One of its true test is whether the people make the govt implement the key policies they want or whether the will of the people is truly reflected in the way govt conducts its business. It seems there is a big disconnect.

The general sentiment amongst people that no one listens to their plight & problems. I have felt this sentiment since Tony Blair's days. There appears to be a permanent establishment which influences the key policy making no matter which party forms the govt. This is not democracy.

This has resulted into feelings like nothing radical is going to happen to reverse the decline of the British empire.

Yeah, that is part of why I never switched; I figured it was too good to be true.
I've been a Mint customer for about 4 years, paying the annual upfront payment, which works out to $15/mo. And shaking my head at those who are paying double or triple that rate on T-Mobile, even though Mint uses the same exact network.

In terms of why T-Mobile is making this purchase, I'm pretty sure it's to take out someone who was eating their lunch.

I've always found it strange that an MVNO is able to operate on the T-Mobile network the entire time and undercut their rates so much that they become a threat.

I guess T-Mobile thinks there are two ways to resolve this: lower their rates to compete with the MVNO, or buy the MVNO ... which I'm sure will result in rate increases, even though they say they have no immediate plans to do that.

> Is there something I'm missing? Is rent in the valley $80k a year or some bizarro world number?

I moved from a LCOL where I paid $1200/mo in mortgage + escrow on a 2600sqft 4br house, to a MCOL where I pay $3600/mo in rent for a 1200sqft 3br townhouse. The Bay Area is a HCOL in the US, for a similar property what I have now, it'd be $5k-$6k/mo in rent, plus everything else is also more expensive. Back of napkin, $191k/yr is roughly $128k/yr after taxes, which is roughly $10800/mo after taxes. If rent is $6k/mo, utilities are $400/mo, a car fully laden is $700/mo, and food is $1000/mo, you're left with just $2700, and I'm ignoring significant other expenses. If you have a child (which I do), childcare in SFBA is around $2500/mo, it's around $1800/mo where I'm at now.

Best case scenario, you can save $2k/mo, which puts you ahead of the majority of Americans. You're also renting, which has a continually rising cost which you have no control over. To buy a house you need 20% down to get a traditional mortgage, a typical (for the rest of America) home in SFBA is $3M on the low end, but probably closer to $4M. To save up the $600k you need for a down payment on a $3M house, it'll take 300 months saving $2k/mo, which is TWENTY-FIVE YEARS. So it'll take you 25 years, just to save the down payment so you can get a 30 year mortgage for a house in SFBA on $191k/yr. In 25 years, that $3M house /will/ be at least $5M just due to inflation, which means you're hitting a moving target, if you predict the rise and target it for savings, now you need 500 months or just shy of 42 years to save the /down payment/.

The SFBA is nearly the most expensive place on Earth to live. Norway doesn't even come close.

I make >$300k/yr in an MCOL, I did an analysis and determined if I wanted to move to the SFBA without a massive sacrifice in quality of life for my family, I'd need to earn at MINIMUM $700k/yr to match what we already have, and more realistically closer to $900k/yr. $191k/yr is not even worth considering in SFBA.

EDIT: That said, if this was a remote offering, that's a very decent salary in most of America, and Oxide is a very interesting company with people working there I'd love to work with just so I could be surrounded by their brilliance.
The refresh rate escalation is a complete jerkoff bit of tech spec nonsense. "Far better cameras" is an exaggeration, as most are marginally better. iPhones have been incredibly fast since the XR, almost five years ago.

There was a period of dramatic progress but now things have largely settled. I recently replaced a 12 Pro with a 14 Pro and it is likely nothing at all changed. There is zero impact in my life. Have the 12 Pro waiting in my drawer for my son with an XR to upgrade, but he doesn't even want the hassle of doing the transfer and then setting up the apps that don't properly migrate data.
Apple will even accept old official cases to properly dispose of them. Always an option when I am trading in an iPhone directly with them.

This comment right here is proof of the bubble - normalising 300-500k per year salaries. Developers don't have a skillset that is harder to develop than university academics or mechanical/electrical engineers in industry. Out in the real world for equivalently skilled professionals in other industries, a 100k salary is great and a 150k salary is fabulous. I'm a 16-year-experienced engineering team leader responsible for process safety on multiple billion-dollar oil and gas facilities and I'm on a great base salary 140k, which is more than many of my peers. There are engineering professors who outstrip my skills level by a factor of ten who are on half my salary.
The exponential elevation of dev salaries into the stratosphere was a natural overshoot of demand vs supply of suitably skilled labour. Now the overshoot is resolving itself starting with decreased demand. Anyone who banked on 300k-500k salaries being the norm has made the same mistake as oil and gas folk have done in every boom throughout the 20th century.

Show HN: Ply – Build internal features into your apps
Hey HN,
I'm Guy, co-founder & CTO at Ply. Excited to share our internal feature builder.

I've built a lot of internal products over the years, they can be really powerful when done right.

After experimenting in our previous company with different approaches for this, we came up with a new approach that worked really well - internal products inside existing products.

We've built a nocode platform that lets you build internal features into the apps you already use. (Think Gmail, HubSpot, Zendesk, etc).
You can add buttons that trigger interfaces inside those apps (Chrome extension based).

The features you build can use contextual data - data from the current item like an email in Gmail or a ticket in Zendesk.

You can also build instances of ChatGPT that are fed with contextual data about the item you're on, so it can do more than just answer an email but also use data about the customer, your schedule or anything else.

The product is geared towards "citizen developers" but you can add code (only javascript for now) and make API requests.

I have built my own terminal. What do you think about it?
4 years ago I started to build my own terminal out of interest. I am a programmer and was not happy with what was available at the time. I wanted a terminal that would run on different operating systems and look nice. I also found myself looking for the same command over and over again because I just couldn't remember it. I mean, I've typed it a thousand times. Why the hell can't my terminal tell me the exact syntax right away? So I built a self-learning auto-completer into my terminal. And that made it surprisingly efficient to use. It was not planned to publish it. It was just supposed to be my little fun project, but at some point a colleague noticed it and wanted it too. Now almost everyone in my company uses Cogno and it has become something bigger. And if most of my colleagues like it, maybe some of you will too. I would like to know your opinion. What do you think about Cogno? Any help is welcome.

Why didn't Docker ever offer managed container hosting? That seems like the obvious logical next step when you create a tool for easy deploys. Instead it's 2023 and we finally get that with Fly.io.

Yeah, but curl is used to access and download all sorts of data, which are all hosted by multi-million dollar companies. Just like git downloads and uploads data to git repositories. curl and git are valuable, but so is GitHub, and websites in general.

Thanks! The process function runs as a Ray Actor (https://docs.ray.io/en/latest/ray-core/actors.html). So we have the same serialization requirements as Ray (https://docs.ray.io/en/latest/ray-core/objects/serialization...)

To me its sounding like they are saying "it's more complicated than that" as a way of saying - hey, yeah, racism exists in the south and is probably far more prevalent there than other places in the US, but there is a perception that every community in the south is racist on the whole, and that most or all individuals in the south are raised to be prejudiced.

Well that idea is obviously wrong, and is prejudiced view to have of the south, ironically.

Anybody who's employed full-time at a tech company is a tech worker. That's how regular people would see it.

When we hear about banks shedding jobs in a recession, we don't really distinguish between equity research, sales and trading or capital markets employees. Correspondingly, the general public doesn't distinguish between FE, back-end, devops, PMs, HR, admin and all the other types of people that got the sack. It gets rolled up into one big headline number. That's what people remember.
There’s over-confidence espoused by economists, the idea that we can measure inflation with any kind of precision is challenging, never mind building on top of this shaky foundation that there are behaviours which regardless of circumstance will lead to a given outcome such as hyper inflation.

This is not to say that hyper inflation isnt a severe risk, it is. it’s to say that the mechanisms through which it’s created or avoided are not well understood nor proven.

> I’d imagine they would pull from the same pool as auto manufacturers and other “anyone can apply” plant/manufacturing jobs.

What is this pool?

The cost of living in the US is (according to my very lazy Google search) about 4 times as high as in Taiwan on average. From what I understand from afar (I'm in the EU), $36k/year really isn't enough to buy a good quality of life in the US. I don't see anyone but those who have very little bargaining power working in these fabs...

My point was that whether it's the US, South Korea or Taiwan, the pool of available workers is probably the same and I suspect the birth rate of the country has very little impact on it.
> Browsers don't have the same access as native apps, and shouldn't.

Indeed. That's why browser vendors (well, some of them) take a dim view of "oh just let them access anything, just pop a confirmation prompt in there"

> There are permission prompts, privacy controls and access limits.

And users are surely aware of those and can definitely understand where to find them, and what implications those have? Literally the entire history of computing tells us: no.

> This is not at all "random access to your computer"

It is. This is already done by MacOS with its incessant "app X wants to access files in Y". Even I, a programmer, and a power user, end up clicking "to hell with it, yes" more often than not. Especially if I'm in the middle of an important task.

No fan of crypto, but the idea of bank protection is kind of a joke. If you authorize the money transfer, they likely will not help you, nor cover the loss. No better than crypto in this regard. Wire transfers are internet for speed, not safety. Banking will always have inherent risks.
Oh to be clear I agree with the OP that they were incompetent/greedy, I just think that missing a CRO is at best a symptom and not a cause. Every single invite to a risk committee meeting should know exactly well what sort of rates risk they had.

As for the hedge, it’s probably a greed/returns question. If you buy then 10 year and sell everything between say 2 to 10 years as a curve hedge, you’ve basically bought the two year with extra steps. There’s no free lunch where you get returns of ten year without the risk on ten year.

You could imagine some imperfect hedge might be better but sort of same problem.

Because the capital market is opaque and corrupt. Execs aren't selected based on their ability to perform, they're selected based on how acceptable they are to the upper classes that control the capital. Even for those (few) who work their way up the ranks, jumping up levels will be based on politics and ability to be perceived as upper class and not based on performance (which is basically impossible to measure in a managerial role unless you want to give all of the credit of the worker's output to the manager).

Imagine you shipped software that included references to docker hub images. That software will no longer work if any of the referenced images are deleted from docker hub. This will be the case with any helm charts that reference images that are deleted from docker hub.

Some of those charts will not have variables that let you override the docker images and tags, so some of those will not be usable without creating a new release.

This is one of the primary reasons to vendor your third party docker images into a docker registry that you control.
