None that seem vaguely close to my vision. And one killer feature I would like to focus on (though it's on the roadmap for post-launch) is the ability to notify you if an URL of yours stops being accessible, i.e. you forgot, after a redesign, to set up a redirect from the old URL to the new, which is a nightmare for both users and your SEO.

I've seen that happen countless times, and no service I've tested was able to monitor for that use case satisfactorily and/or at that price point.

In other words, my goal is to create a service to uphold Berners-Lee's "cool URIs don't change" mantra.

I was one of the original authors of ds_cinder (a multimedia framework for building interactive designs.) it’s been actively developed since 2012 and has been used to make hundreds of interactive displays and experiences. Some features may seem normal place today, but there weren’t general frameworks with pdf, video playing, amx interface, multitouch support, and a ui engine built for touch screens back in 2011-2012.

Wright's been civilly found to commit perjury-- but they just hit him with a fine and he keeps going. He was hit with a criminal contempt charge two decades ago for perjury and forgery in court, sentenced to 30 days in jail but he got it reduced to community service. But even if it hadn't been-- so what? He'd probably ultimately benefit from it by spinning it into a story about that time when he went to jail in for standing up for his beliefs in the face of a corrupt judge or whatever.

The main consequence of perjury in civil court is that it tends to cause you to lose. But when you're bringing cases with no serious prospect of success for collateral purposes... it doesn't really matter if you lose, and if lying is the only way you might win... The other consequences seem calibrated for otherwise upstanding people that actually care about the consequences of their actions, not for grifters using the courts as a weapon.
This is not yet a victory, but progress is already good. To really trust AI in medicine, we need to conduct an incredible amount of research and tests. I don’t think that today you can blindly believe its diagnoses.
I've read most good - and much bad - dystopian fiction. I am very familiar with the word. Modifying the word "beauty" with it does not make a word combination fitting for these ugly structures by any reasonable stretch of either words' meaning.
You're completely wrong- look at the wikipedia page for differential diagnosis: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Differential_diagnosis

Literally the majority of the page is basic arithmetic, mostly Bayes. Diagnosis is a process of determining (sometimes quantitative, sometimes qualitative) the relative incidences of different diseases and all the possible ways they can present. Could this be X rare virus, or is it Y common virus presenting atypically?

My gas (propane) cooktop works but you're not "supposed" to use it if power is out because it won't automatically reignite if the flame goes out. (Doesn't really matter as I have all sorts of camping backup I can use but I'm probably not supposed to use those indoors either.) I don't live in New York but I should probably get the propane fireplace insert I've been meaning to get before we ban it too.
Don't worry, it's strong military grade crypto, uses AES-256 /s
Uh, you're forgetting the logistics of dealing with the losses of 100-300 million people. Look at how COVID-19 filled morgues globally. India is in absolutely no position to deal with the logistics of a loss of life on that scale, and thus it would absolutely be noticed, disease spreading rapidly, creating a secondary humanitarian crisis.
kdeconnect is great for this too!
During the COVID19 pandemics I wrote an app to help my mom cook with anything she had at home, so she could go fewer times to the supermarket, considering her heavy smoking and old age, the best is to avoid exposure.

The app is just a search where you input the ingredients you have and you get a list of possible food you can cook with it. I crawled over 6000 recipes over the network. In fact I have over 120k recipes in Portuguese but can't display them due to legal restrictions. After some time I decided to create a site and open-source it:

https://feitaemcasa.com

I added some recipes in english as well.
That is a lie—in terms of funds being controlled specifically absent owner signatures, by the developers, how did even Bitcoin Cash set such a precedent?

In fact, there are specific counter-examples with Jeff Garzik's godmode patches which were so roundly denied and rejected that they were DOA.

Ethereum is irrelevant because of how much total premine it was and how they misrepresented it, and misrepresented the involvement of famous cryptographers like Ralph Merkle.

None of your comments about key ownership have any basis in reality or even logic, because of the direct counter-evidence of key ownership for the keys he is claiming ownership of.

So, you also have no idea what you're talking about.
Adulting is hard, isn’t it? Yes, if you have more money than time you should just get a laundromat to do it.
do you also suffer from ( sometimes socially compromising) misophonia as well? I also have what I consider to be above average hearing sensitivity, although not to the point where artifacts from music compression bother me that much. I don't have an official testing result to prove or define this in quantifiable terms, only that I seem to notice things in the ambient sound environment that most others either don't notice or tune out, and this has at least as many downsides as benefits.

If someone is a loud chewer, or drink slurper, it's as if I can hear every single bit of muscle and conjunctiva flexing and saliva sloshing around inside their jaw, and the glorp glorp sound of their swallows, if we're both in an otherwise quiet room. Or if there is a car alarm going off or dog barking three blocks away, sounds other people appear to be completely unaware of or passively filter out can sometimes drive me into quiet boiling stress that is completely irrational yet impossible to reason myself out of, and i just have to leave.
Good News Update and Bonus Article
I think this is just propaganda. Empathy is a "qualia", meaning it's part of the hard problem of consciousness. Qualias are non-computable, so a computer can't display empathy. I'm sure it's good at inserting little sugary cliches and platitudes in each response, but to call it empathy is a real stretch.

Perhaps it's rated as more empathetic because it's more likely to tell people what they want to hear since the patient is leading the questions and not the other way around.

That's another issue: since the A.I can't compute qualia; it can't discern if the patient has psychosomatic symptoms, so it is more likely to give a false diagnosis.
The data does not support your claim. US government expenditure as a fraction of the GDP was lower in the 70s (30-35%) than it is now (35-40%). The government revenue, about the same (around 30%). So the tax base is roughly the same relative to economic output, and spending slightly higher, with the difference made up for by deficits.

The Transcontinental Railroad was built in the 1860s and the Hoover Dam in the 1930s, both when government expenditure as well as taxation at all levels were a single-digit percent of GDP. I suppose by your logic we would be a galaxy-faring species if only we were able to tax the likes of Bezos and Musk?
Bob Dylan says "you don't need a weatherman to know which way the wind blows".
There'd be no funding for a project that developed and deployed an automated decision making system for nuclear launches. Pretty easy to enforce if it's not able to get into the budget.

Plus, DOD program offices are rather notoriously shitty at software and IT development these days so it'd probably take about $1 trillion and 100 years to develop anyways. Self-limiting.
It's surprising that the article doesn't seem to consider the potential benefits of heating, especially when it comes to mitigating the adverse effects of cold weather. For instance, this study conducted in India [0] found that cold-related deaths significantly outnumbered heat-related deaths. Given this, I think it's important to weigh the advantages of heating against its drawbacks when discussing this topic.

Ugh, I think this is a terrible idea for heating.

I've installed 2 Mitsubishi hyper heat pumps in the past 5 years with 3 indoor heads totaling ~48,000 BTUs of heat capacity. I don't think people understand how much more expensive heat pumps are than a traditional natural gas furnace. I paid $25,000, and that was 5 years ago. This is for a small house of 1500 square feet. If you had a larger 3 or 4,000 square foot house, you can double or triple that price. In contrast, I know you can get a 250,000 BTU gas boiler for ~$20,000 with install.

Plus, electricity is still way more expensive than gas, even with the price shocks over the past year and even with the high efficiency of modern heat pumps. And it's not that green, given that you lose ~7% in transmission, and usually it's coming from a coal or natural gas plant. If you had solar to offset some of it, that would be great, but usually there isn't enough sun in the winter to account for all of your heating needs, at least without a gigantic array.

I think this is pretty impractical and misguided. I've tried to be green, but next time I buy a house, I'm going to try to go back to a gas furnace.
A+ joke.

"Naturally", it can take so much time to accomplish something working with nature, time is one of the most likely natural forces to cause expectations to exceed accomplishments or even possibilities.

Most tech companies don’t run lean. They run bloated because they are trying to chase a dozen different things at once in the hopes of finding the thing that lets them 10x to please investors.

A lot of companies can do what Twitter just did and come out relatively fine, perhaps better in some ways.

I’m surprised people here ever thought Twitter would collapse. So many of us have worked at these companies. We know how bloated they are. You can spend a decade at Google, Facebook, Twitter or Amazon and make an amazing salary but never work on a single thing that makes it to market.
replace rails and laravel with django and...these frameworks are great, but require great discipline and the ability to factor systems correctly!

but TBH, discipline + correct factoring is kinda the baseline to produce decent systems.

It's still leagues better with django/rails than with "microframeworks" which are basically a giant spool of rope for anything more than a handful of endpoints
I think you're discounting how connected everything is.

When you buy XYZ stock the company is able to borrow more and at better rates. They are able to attract buyouts, pay higher salaries, hire more employees and generally spend more in a number of ways.

When individuals like Jeff Bezos add another zero to their net worth they are able to borrow against their own stock holdings as well as are more likely to splurge on other things (like his new yacht) such as funding Blue Origin and Project Kuiper so Musk doesn't pass him as the richest man in the world.

All this results in more money spent and entering the economy ultimately trickling down to purchases of milk, bread and starter homes while making many other stops along the way.
totally agree, and yeah, "you eventually memorize all the arcane bits" definitely isn't a point in favor of powershell

there are also some commands I use all the time that don't have built in aliases like the json converters, so that makes cross-machine alias consistency for some important things not great
Thanks for the video link! Very cool. The poor singing combined with the on-the-fly guitar tuning gave the piece a grungy punk-like feel, at least to my ears. I rather enjoyed it.

A cute (translated) comment from the video: “To sing with this guitarist is easy! Just praise the Lord and he does the rest!”
I mainly use termux for the script API (which is incredible btw). I usually write the scripts in bash or ruby on my computer and scp them over, but I also have a small keyboard that I can plug in to type directly on the phone.

Even if you don't use the CLI part of Termux often, it's still an incredibly neat piece of hackery goodness. I once needed to text about 50 people and have it be from my real phone number. Rather than hack around with Twilio or AWS, I spent 5 minutes writing a ruby script to send the texts from Termux. If you aren't familiar yet with the API, it will take a little longer than 5 mins the first time. Once I had that script, I kept finding neat usecases for it. I sometimes still just text from the CLI because it's easier than using the built-in messages app depending on what I'm doing.

You can definitely get an amazing experience on Android without Termux, but Termux is like if Android were a really nice bicycle, Termux is a small powered motor you can bolt on somewhere to automate parts of your life.

Aside: I find Termux easier to use than Tasker. I'm a CLI native old man though, so don't take this as a knock against Tasker.
For us to get a better understanding of how well this tech works I suggest ChatGPT becomes integrated in HN in this way: it generates 1 response per comment; the responses written by the AI are clearly marked as such (e.g. different color); the user can turn them off; these comments can be up/down voted and the votes can be seen by any user; of course users can reply to the generated comments.
Which repo did you look at? The one at [0] seems pretty active, specially for an application that probably doesn't need updates all that often anyways.

Apollo 11 was set to land automatically using the computer when Armstrong took controls at the last minute supposedly to avoid a Boulder Field. It's not really clear that his takeover of the automatic controls was necessary - what is clear is that mankind landing for the first time on another celestial body using automatic computers is probably not cool. ... And NASA was driven and sold to the public as a human interest project ...
How far does it go on your own case? Are there degrees of it?

Can you do the level harmony recognition like in the video below, or it's more the individual notes when played on it's own?

Thank you, I had to look up the term. The markets are so insidious these days.
No, I don't think the oil fund (https://www.nbim.no/en/) is responsible for the culture to be on time or is connected directly to the public healthcare finances. Though being a state with money helps, obviously.
60/40 did really well in 2009-2021, so all it did was give up some of its earlier gains. It still works in the longer term though.
Public search no longer works. I don't want to have to give Twitter a phone number just to use its search bar.
Oh dude! That's such a great idea. So great that (like most great ideas) it's extremely obvious in hindsight and I feel silly for not having considered it :-D
I think the problem is a little more subtle.

With Rails, you can call `relation.map(&:id)` and `relation.pluck(:id)` and get the same thing — an array of `id`. But using map is 50x slower because it loads the entire model into memory (ActiveModel is very expensive) before enumerating; pluck fires a query and hits the result set from ActiveRecord — very inexpensive!

Average ability participants then fall for this foot gun (and others like it) and end up designing things poorly. One overlook quickly turns into accelerant at scale. This isn't unique to Rails, but Ruby — the delight that it is — makes it almost too trivial to do.

I've seen this happen at Rails shops many of us have an account on, where I wouldn't consider the people I worked with average ability participants either.
Ask HN: Android is rapidly losing the US market. What can Google do about this?
It's looking quite bleak for Android. The iPhone has conquered 57% of the US smartphone market, which is the most important market. It is the most culturally influential and people have the most dispoable income. Losing this market would be disastrous and there's no recovering from that.

The Android brand has become so undesireable by the US population that you will be ostracied from group chats and your potential dating pool shrinks when they see those green bubbles. Can Google stop the bleeding and do something about this or is Apple going to swallow the entire US market without resistence?
_For Northern Europe_.

On average Europe has a much milder climate than Canada, despite being at the same latitudes. That may come to an end.

But that's a local effect, and doesn't change the global long term average story.
Wow you sound very confident in your speculation. Surely predicting the outcome of lotteries is a more lucrative use of your skills?
It would be nice if some enterprising smart people could make AI to stop dictatorial nation states & political parties, stop big corruption, stop large-scale brain washing, etc. I am sure there are currently at least some people of that caliber. Because there may be huge efforts already underway in the opposite direction.
Why does this apply for math but not for being a doctor?? It can do basic math, but you say that of course it can't do math- math isn't language. The fact that it can do some basic diagnosis does not mean it's good at doctor things or even that its better than webmd.
Completely this, I was so confused by OP because naturally this is how my playbooks configure my systems.
I'm really impressed by the guitarist making her sound better and her pitch was all over the place

Home Assistant is a great self-hosted tool for smart home things. They have a list of compatible devices that may be useful. Would require setting up a home assistant server somewhere, but that seems like a small price to pay for managing your own data.

Not really. I said that based on the experiences from my close family. The sample size is small.
I'm glad others feel this way. My coworkers look at me like i'm a psycho when I talk about coding on side projects on the weekends.
Do you or anyone else know what the state of kdeconnect is on gnome? Last I tried it out it didn't work super well and the functionality was spread out among a handful of different apps. If you didn't already know what you were looking for, it was very difficult to discover what you can do.
What are some examples of these types of mods?

Read SICP and build your own Scheme in Scheme.
I dunno, maybe it's because the jargon is stupid?
Could you elaborate on your method? That's quite impressive considering it's widely believed to be untrainable past a certain age (at least that's layman my understanding).

Did you start with a complete inability to identify notes, and now are able to identity them immediately (i.e like acquiring a new language?).
>It’s like talking about the water content of wine being 88% when you’re really interested in the other half of the equation

So, 88% + 50% = 'the equation'. Would this be where we get those fascinating units of measure such as 'the tipple', etc?
The "this incident will be reported" message always struck me as having the same vibe as the "provided by the management for your protection" labels they have on toilet seat covers.
I'm not blind but I wrote an EPUB to Text-To-Speech reader using Coqui (a really good AI TTS project). There are books I wanted to listen to while doing other things, and I couldn't find audio-book versions of them, so this worked out perfectly. It could be that I did not do enough searching, but I was surprised I didn't see anything out there that already worked this way.

I thought all math was similar due to the ability to work with it requiring decent working memory. Both mental math and conceptually complex items from theory require excellent working memory, which is a function of IQ
Yeah, clipping is bad mastering. But you'd be surprised what happens when you simply reduce levels to the point where the odd freak wave outlier does not clip. People mock the loudness wars, but the amount of effective volume you'd get after naive "just make it not clip" mastering would be too low for even the loudest loudness decriers.

Levels on vinyl don't have a clear maximum beyond which the levels are cleanly clipped: they keep going, just not as good. It's more like the red zone on an engine's rpm, you wouldn't want to operate up there for prolonged periods, but a race driverwho never ever dipped the needle in there for even the shortest time wouldn't be good at their job. A good CD mix will achieve target loudness exclusively by dynamics compression, a good vinyl mix can achieve the same with a mix of noticeably less compression and the occasional flirt with the red zone.
Ah, I also should've looked up EAV since there's a lot on this. I don't see what you gain from this other than not having to define new tables/cols for new use cases, and the downside is any DB structure has to be enforced entirely in code. I've been down routes like this before (not EAV but other sorta polymorphic DBs), and it's never ended well. Became unsafe to touch the code at some point, especially in a team setting.

On the more technical side, I don't know if Postgres would handle this efficiently. The `attribute` col has the classic low-cardinality problem for indexes. The one big table you use would have many very different access patterns. There are DBMSes more designed for this use case.

I'm also not seeing very much EAV adoption mentioned on Wikipedia. I can see this working for some specialized use cases, though. Has this worked well for you in the past?
Sure, but extensibility often comes with complexity. If I'm making something non-extensible it's to keep things simple or to prevent a bunch of bugs around people trying to extend something with complicated state.

They always have the nuclear option of forking and making those fields no longer internal. They'll have to take on the maintenance overhead that I shirked, but that should be fine if they need it that badly.
> Building a KV store into the language is kind of nuts.

Isn't it part of the standard library rather than the language? Anyways, Erlang has mnesia [0] and ETS [1]. ETS is practically a KV store, which can also be persisted to disk.

I don't think "pitch taste" is a good way of describing it. It's not about the pitch itself. It's about the timbre. Musicians wanted a brighter sound, which they could accomplish, for example, by tightening their strings a little more. I personally really like a darker mellow sound and very much enjoy the 415 A and historically informed performances. I also think pushing to a 443 modern A is stupid and tune all my ensembles to 440. There is a little practical bonus to starting higher, though, which is that it helps mitigate the tendency of pitch to drop over the course of the piece.
I don't think podman systemd integration handles blue/green style handoff, but pod man's integration is pretty nice.

Really painful to manually call a docker container from systemd normally, lots of edge cases to manage
Oops, not sure how I missed that. Thanks.
