P2P in browser was improved a lot in the past years. Your two machines could now connect via WebRTC and then send data to each other directly, no need for bluetooth. This works great and has a low latency. With rxdb you could even realtime-sync the whole application state [1] without connection to a server farm in virginia.

So each social network has to find ways to make you send another photo, or it has to deploy a brand-new feature and encourage you to use that, too. More usage, more space for ads, more money for investors.

“We want to show our kinky side!” Tumblr users blogged to the heavens. “Sorry, can’t do it,” said the overlords at Yahoo. “It’s scaring the advertisers!”
It's not snark. Safety is a serious issue for me when it comes to my kids. An issue that I don't have to worry about here, but I'd feel quite a bit different if we lived in an area where you have to take the possibility of school shootings into account. It's good to know that's not an issue everywhere in the US, but I honestly wouldn't know in what part of the US it's not an issue; from the outside, it seems they can happen anywhere.
What if a server has most of its request processing io blocked? It can process more requests because it has empty CPU RAM but load balancer will think the server is fully booked.
I'm still having trouble understanding what you meant by "Capitalism is just the producer"

> If consumers don't purchase the products produced by the capitalist factories then the system would come to a standstill.

What about buying from a socialist factory? Is socialism also just the producer?

> This means that as a consumer, I can influence the system by not purchasing certain products. The larger consumer group, the larger the change.

This seems like you are talking about markets, not really capitalism.

Show HN: The Wizard's Apprentice, AI-Powered TypeScript Project Suite and CLI
Hey there, my name is Joe, and I have just finished my second major project, The Wizard's Apprentice. In short, it is intended to be a coding partner that sits along side you and carries out any coding activities that it can.

Ultimately I set out to create a group of functionality that would be beneficial while working on a larger project I am developing, Awayto https://github.com/jcmccormick/wc. This is a large scale framework including a Typescript project which defines the api and ui components. I wanted a tool that would help me make new features in the site, as well as continually work on issues, as if it were a subordinate.

The Wizard's Apprentice has a bunch of functionality I thought was important like being able to manage prompts, control their desired response formats (insofar as rejecting requests that don't conform), and give me some insight into the validity and success rates of my prompting.

A beta version has just been completed which features a CLI and importable functions so the package can support more use cases and be used for server side tasks if needed. I hope you're able to check it out. Any feedback, questions, or comments, are greatly appreciated! Thanks for your time.

High volume low latency message queueing is already a problem people have had and implemented solutions for that (for their use case) cost little enough in terms of latency that the advantages were well worth it.

Also there's no reason to poll the LB/queue/etc., you just tell it "I'm ready" and it sends you something to handle when it's got something.

Pull/push here is about who decides when a server is ready to receive another request.

So ... I'm not an expert on actually implementing it, but I've seen systems in practice that -were- in such situations and it worked out extremely well.
> girls who spend more than 4 hours a day on social media have two to three times the rate of depression as girls who spend an hour or less.

Not that it proves anything, but the converse argument, that depressed girls spend more time on social media or online in general, should also be examined. If the data could support this thesis to a similar degree, there is no conclusive statement about social media really inducing depression. It isn't just about effect size in my opinion but I don't see this problem answered.

That said, it doesn't need to be depression, there are other venues for negative influences. I am always ready to yell at the cloud for that.
The map is indeed not the territory. There is an insane amount of people who live in a fantasy world, where they believe that theory equals practise, which is absolute and utter nonsense. They do not understand the value of experience, most likely because they don't actually have any.

Nothing. It's an oddball comment, for sure!

As a minarchist (form of libertarian), I would love to see the state operate more efficiently. That would achieve a part of my own personal political beliefs. I recognize the need for a state and the role society must have in shaping it for it to be a stable, functioning state.

Surprise rules dramatically increasing taxation due to political judo performed six years prior is horrible.

Uroda to temat, który interesuje wiele osób na całym świecie. Chcemy czuć się dobrze we własnej skórze i wyglądać pięknie, ale jednocześnie zdrowo i naturalnie. W tym artykule skupimy się na naturalnych sposobach dbania o urodę, które nie tylko pomogą nam wyglądać pięknie, ale także będą korzystne dla naszego zdrowia.

Zdrowe nawyki żywieniowe to podstawa pięknej skóry. Dieta bogata w owoce, warzywa, orzechy, pełnoziarniste produkty zbożowe i zdrowe tłuszcze, takie jak oliwa z oliwek, ma pozytywny wpływ na kondycję skóry. Warto również pamiętać o piciu dużej ilości wody, co pomaga utrzymać odpowiednie nawilżenie skóry i pozbyć się toksyn.

Naturalne kosmetyki to kolejny kluczowy element zdrowej pielęgnacji skóry. Wiele kosmetyków dostępnych na rynku zawiera szkodliwe substancje chemiczne, które mogą podrażniać skórę i wpływać negatywnie na zdrowie. Dlatego warto zwracać uwagę na skład kosmetyków i wybierać produkty z naturalnymi składnikami, takimi jak oleje roślinne, wyciągi z ziół czy ekstrakty z owoców.

Regularne ćwiczenia fizyczne to również ważny element zdrowej pielęgnacji ciała. Ćwiczenia poprawiają krążenie krwi i dotlenienie skóry, co przyczynia się do poprawy jej wyglądu. Dodatkowo, regularne ćwiczenia fizyczne pomagają zredukować stres i poprawić samopoczucie, co ma wpływ na naszą urodę.

Relaks to ważny element zdrowia i urody. Stres może wpłynąć negatywnie na nasze zdrowie i wygląd, dlatego warto zadbać o odpowiednią ilość snu i czas dla siebie. Zrelaksowany umysł i wypoczęte ciało to gwarancja pięknej skóry i dobrego samopoczucia.

Podsumowując, piękna skóra i uroda to wynik nie tylko stosowania kosmetyków, ale również zdrowych nawyków żywieniowych, regularnych ćwiczeń fizycznych i relaksu. Warto zwracać uwagę na skład kosmetyków i wybierać produkty z naturalnymi składnikami. Dzięki takim praktykom możemy poczuć się lepiej we własnej skórze i wyglądać pięknie, naturalnie i zdrowo.

“Anti” coddling to me is rejecting the notion of participation trophies, emphasizing in a healthy way losing and winning.

Pushing through discomfort and, god forbid, seeking out discomfort. Being OK and perhaps wanting discomfort. Knowing that discomfort is 9/10 a healthy stress that builds you.

Not playing the victim. Taking responsibility for your circumstances, no matter how shit of a hand you were dealt. Yeah it sucks XYZ happened. The answer is to work through it and build from it, not give XYZ power to hold you back.

Sometimes things suck, and sometimes things are sad, and that’s okay. Common notion in many cultures is you can’t know happiness without sadness, light without darkness, etc.

Many of these things are better handled in a good upbringing. A stable household which has a motherly figure there to provide you warmth, protection, and love. A fatherly figure that provides structure, pushes you when you have room to do better, and sees potential in you and sets you up for success. Sometimes people don’t have this structure, refer to the above point.

It’s odd to me some of these things seem outside mainstream rhetoric, but that’s the Overton window at work.
Amortizing makes sense for things that have a huge up-front cost and value over time, like - indeed - a robot, or a laptop, or a house. But salaries are not that, they are a continuous cost. I can take a loan on a house (mortgage), and laptops can be bought on 0% payment plans over 3 years. But how would that work for salaries? I'm forced to take out loans to pay the duplicate tax over salaries (and other minor expenses) over the amortization period. That's the insane bit here.

Talk to a few of your trusted peers about the effect (not the mechanics) of the vulnerability.

As in, "If you hand me your iPhone, I can unlock it without knowing your password." Don't tell them how, just describe in 1 sentence what access you need, and what you're able to do. If your trusted peers (not drinking buddies who do other jobs) are impressed, then widen the circle a little - tell strangers (like HN readers) that same thing, and ask if it's a vulnerability.

It'll just help you have a sanity check about whether or not it's actually a vulnerability that Apple needs to fix, or perhaps it's someone else's, or not really that big of a deal.
The point is, if I could buy a Pi I'd pay attention to these interesting blog posts and maybe following those instructions. But Pis are nowhere to be found at a reasonable price or quantity, so why bother? It's basically a dead platform by choice of its manufacturer.
Just retry each X seconds. Also browsers have a navigator.onLine property which emits an event at the exact time the client is online again. I am doing this with rxdb and it works great.
I think you're misunderstanding what the poster was talking about. You're taking "the popups we see today were never recommended nor required by the original regs" to mean that the popups have become something that wasn't intended by the regulation (but the regulation did require popups).

I think that the poster was saying that the popups themselves as a concept were never recommended nor required by the regulations.

You’ll have to be more specific. What political goals do you think are being accomplished here?

For 11 years now Haidt has very deliberately identified as a centrist, partially because folks like yourself unfamiliar with his work find habit in dismissing his research as being politically motivated. Just because a researchers findings don’t align with YOUR politics doesn’t make the research itself politically motivated, it’s more likely your worldview was politically steeped from the beginning.
Googler opinions are my own. I know little about BQ.

My understanding of Big query is that at least some of the tech it's based on allows for handling very large datasets. I'm talking being able to search BI that is petabytes in size. I don't think it's really designed for small datasets.

If you can stick the data in SQLite, I think you're using the wrong tool.

Searching around, it looks like BI Engine may help in cases like this. See: https://cloud.google.com/blog/topics/developers-practitioner...

It's quite hard for me to judge this topic because I am so thoroughly convinced that social media is toxic for mental health.

I think unfortunately it has become pervasive enough that you can't avoid experiencing it's toxic influence.

There has been a complete loss in any interest in meeting a middle ground and like the use of stocks in medieval times the concept of cancellation is much more power than any reality.

Twitter show cases this best, it's prison politics in web form. Everyone's in a gang and god help you if you aren't everyone will have a go at you.
Super, so we can get rid of all banners then. Because ad tracking cookies absolutely improve the user experience. It's unarguably better for users to see a small number of high quality targeted ads than to see a large number of low quality animated flashy barrel-scraping casino ads, which is what you get when there's no ability to track preferences or interests. And nobody's privacy is being invaded because they aren't linkable to any individual identity anyway.

Given that the EU has now conceded that point, we can finally get rid of this noise and move on. Hurrah!

Now, some of you may disagree with the above analysis, but your analysis is no more valid than anyone else's. EU privacy law is deliberately vague and open to interpretation so you can't complain when someone interprets it the way given above.
So maybe I’m too much of an optimist but I’be been thinking about Tailscale a lot recently because of how much of a game changer their product has been for us. I shudder to imagine what our VPN setup would look like at work if I hadn’t discovered Tailscale a month or two before the COVID craziness all started.

Maybe Yubikey could do to PKI what Tailscale did for VPNs: make the whole process dramatically simpler and easy to use. Still sell Yubikeys, please, but set up a funnel to capture corporate recurring revenue by solving this problem better than the alternatives.
That's correct, but it's not possible until mobile gatekeepers such as Apple/Google allow this practice.
Well, in short, yes.

> I always thought that for hundreds of backends and above 10K RPS those algorithms scale poorly

https://www.haproxy.com/blog/haproxy-forwards-over-2-million...

> First of all, scaling beyond single load balancer becomes a problem.

If you are in DC or have L3 access to the underlying network ECMP is VERY easy way to scale to 4-16 loadbalancers. Over that just... use multiple IPs. We use ECMPed setup of 4 nodes since forever and it works very well.

There are theoretical improvements that could be made by doing L4 loadabalancing into L7 loadbalancing, but you'd need a hell lot of traffic to ever need that

> The cost of updating counters becomes significant. If responses are quick, the cost additional bookkeeping adds doesn't pay off.

Essentially, yes but if you have some architecture that talks very little (say just few packets per connection, let's assume some IoT garbage), you probably just want different architecture altogether; like "first request gets you assigned server, then you talk to it directly without LB". L4 balancing is also an option.

In essence, if somehow performance of leastconn algorithm is your bottleneck, you're both big enough and specialized enough to go with another approach than "just dump all traffic at few loadbalancers"
> People would likely still farm and produce and maintain, even clean and repair, everything that is deemed meaningful and important, but few if anyone would voluntarily open an Excel spreadsheet ever again or schedule an entirely pointless meeting.

Somehow I doubt that most people working in agriculture would continue to do so in a post-money society. When they collectivized farms in communist russia and china, productivity plummeted and millions starved to death due to government incompetence.

> Lol. That was done to placate the slave owners.

The 17th amendment was passed ~50yr after the civil war, a point in time when the overwhelming majority of the electorate had no memory of overt slavery and the people who did or who's parents did were even less influential than before due to immigration waves and industrialization (which concentrated population money and power in the northeast and Midwest generally speaking). Please f right off with your revisionist history.

>Anyone suggesting that the US Senate as constituted for the last century is a populist institution may require institutional help of another kind.

This is rich coming from the guy that just said an amendment passed in the 1900s was done to placate slave owners.

Regardless of the intent of the amendment, only a complete fool would claim that making appointed positions directly elected doesn't make the body formed by those positions more subject to populist sentiments than it previously was.

I'm not entirely sold on the idea that direct electing the senate is a bad thing but it doesn't take a genius to look at the situation before and after and see that there are pros and cons to both. Like you can literally pick up a history book and look at the influences the senate was beholden to and strongly pushed around by before and after the change.
When you lay it out like that...

In this case the optimistic UI might be good to have a step like “this request is pending”. So when the form is submitted the data is ready to send and will send when it can. Ideally with an indicator that the user is offline and needs to be online to sync.
Google could solve this problem.

A new ranking boost for high reputation outbound links similar to the current boost for high reputation inbound links would encourage citations because editors would encourage the practice from journalists.

Some check might be necessary to make sure the citation fits the context of the article, however current NLP tech can manage that fairly well - and again I vaguely remember that Google has a some kind context check for outbound links too.
When you do, please think about a special price for existing customers ;-)
It also strikes me that it might be interesting to model least connections with two or three LBs with and without such shared state.

My instinct is that you'd still get most of the advantages even with each LB keeping its own independent connection counts, but given the number of times I've fired up a profiler and gone "wait, seriously, -that-s the slow part?!" I'd suggest nobody believes me and measures it instead.

No one optimal solution. Per-seat licensing can make buying prohibitive. Running your own SAML IDP isn’t trivial but you get full control at a fixed cost. Paying a third-party provider gets you running right away but may have limitations you have to work around.
There's another consideration too: the wealthy people stop caring about funding the public tier because they can afford not to care about it, lobby for policies to cut public funding to lower taxes. Two tier systems typically degrade the public tier over time.
