What nonprofit do you trust to run such a thing? When their employees receive targeted harassment from political vigilantes, what do you think is going to happen? When the nonprofit board is stacked with Musk or Trump acolytes, what do you think is going to happen?

Media organizations are hugely vulnerable targets and they — nonprofit or commercial — are not proving resilient to outside pressure and influence. Decentralization is the only sustainable way forward if you want diversity in social media.
Can we get the specs for this so that we can implement it ourselves for 'unsupported' platforms.

Ask HN: Is Anyone Else Planning to Wait and See on EVs?
I need to buy a car, but it seems like EV technology and adoption is changing so much right now that there is a good chance I would regret my purchase in 5-10 years. If I buy a new car I plan to drive it until it won’t go anymore.

Solid state batteries [1]
LiFO
Electrify America starting to maybe give a shit [2]
Tesla charging network opening up
Every OEM going EV over the next 5 - 10 years

It seems like if I buy a used ICE now and save the money for whatever EV is best in maybe 5 years, the choice is going to be a lot easier to make.

Is anyone else feeling this way?

Can a Linux derivative OS comparable to macOS be written in Rust?
Rust appears to be safe and cool language, many discussions going on about rewriting existing parts of kernels like bootloaders to make them memory safe, etc. Is Rust a good candidate to write an OS like Mac OS? AFAIK, there are two aspects to such an OS - it should be super smooth and performant, and secondly, it should be able to expose a sophisticated toolchain and SDK to create apps, much like Swift/Cocoa for Mac. Can Rust do both as of now? Can the Rust-GTK combination, as mentioned here: https://bit.ly/3VHwkcE, enable creation of beautiful and performant apps like Mac OS apps? And can it expose an SDK and toolkit as sophisticated as Cocoa/Swift/Clang for developers to do their jobs easily?
"God made man, John Browning made man equal."

There is no other tool in the world that puts a 90 pound woman on equal footing with a 200 pound man. To deny people their right of self defense, or putting strange technology on top of such a right, is tantamount of tyranny.

Everyone seems to "care so much" about gun violence right up until they need a gun to defend themselves. Maybe you'll get more traction when every progressive candidate takes the first steps by disarming their bodyguards and refusing to wear body armor. Or are these people special in that they are allowed to defend themselves because that matter more than you, your mother, your father, your wife, your daughter, or your son? They would like you to believe that though I'm sure if you searched in your heart long enough you'd come to the conclusion you matter more than they do.

The only people that benefit from a disarmed society are the elite and the politicians. A government afraid of it's people is an effective and fair government. I cannot believe people exist that trust politicians.

Also, as a side note, your sources are garbage. The Atlantic is hardly unbiased especially with regards to guns and your quoted data is demonstrably false by simply going to the FBI homicide database and watching the trendline go down below almost every other form of death since the 1960s (historically the most violent period for guns in history). Leftist misinformation mills like gifford's law and moms demand action are the anti-vax flat earthers of the self defense world. Absolute smoothbrains.

EDIT: Downvote me all you want, it doesn't change reality. It is no surprise that gun crimes occur most frequently in gun free zones. Yet our solution is more gun free zones. This is the moronic smoothbrain flat earth thinking typical of moms demand action and their politicians in their pocket.

The Little-Known Legend of Jesus in Japan
For one, England means "land of the Angles" (or in French, "Angleterre": "Angle land"). The Anglo-Saxon majority people group of England descend from the Angles, Saxons, and Jutes, from the coastal German regions of Anglia, Old Saxony, and Jutland. There's also significant admixture from Norse invasion/settlement (and also the Normans, who were Norse who took over a region of France and adopted a dialect of the French language, before conquering England in the year 1066).

Going further back in time, I'm guessing you're aware that modern Scotland corresponds roughly to the area of Britain that the Romans weren't able to conquer. The Roman settlement of Londinium became London. We also get our English word "pound" and its abbreviation "lb." from the two halves of the Latin phrase "libra pondo", dating back to Roman Britain.
That doesn't contradict with my point. There are also logistic advantages in making the device small.

They had the technology but not the power, so most games still only had bits and pieces using ray tracing and were not globally illuminated by it. Not to mention you have to make the game work on old equipment too. That means all the downsides of old lighting techniques remained and none of the art efficiencies are realized.

We are at the third generation of cards with RTX and there are almost no games using ray traced global illumination, and even if they do they still have to offer rasterized lighting for older hardware.
There are a couple of reasons not to worry about this upgrade:

A. 3 -> 4 required very very significant changes. 4 -> 5 and now 5 -> 6 are nowhere near that.

B. KDE really learnt their lesson on this and they are very careful not to create anything similar to that. Thus, not big rewrite/changes like 3 -> 4 are in the works.

This is just to get the whole project going with Qt 6 which isn't that much different from Qt 5.

Edit: Disclaimer, I used to be a very minor contributor to KDE around 3 -> 4 time.

As someone that self hosts email, hell no.

SMTP by itself has no authentication and we had to add crap on top of it like SPF, DKIM, DMARC. Don't have it? Oops, sorry, to spam it goes. Oh and don't forget about a reverse DNS record for your IP address with a correct domain, otherwise some mail servers will deny you. Want other mailservers to send you emails via TLS? Well, there is DANE, but that uses DNSSEC so Gmail doesn't support it. MTA-STS exists, but it's kinda silly and was made just for people that don't want DNSSEC for some reason, but at least Gmail supports it. For some reason there is also TLS-RPT for reporting about TLS use, so mail servers will send you emails that they used TLS, yay. Want your email address to have a picture? There is BIMI, but some mail servers won't display it if you don't pay few thousand dollars a year for some special certificate. Oh and it needs to be a pretty small SVG.

Oops, your email still went to spam? Maybe your IP is on some obscure blacklist for no god damn reason? Or Outlook just randomly decided to ban your IP, but will offer you to unban it automatically by filling some weird form? Or maybe Gmail decided to randomly put your reply email to spam to someone that emailed you first?

Want to retrieve your mailbox? Oh, do you want IMAP or POP? Obviously you don't want POP, you want IMAP, but you remembered that there is this "new" standard JMAP that is saner than IMAP. Oh what's that? Nobody supports it? Oh well.

The kidneys turn salt into fructose as far as I know. When u're diabetic and you consume salt it's much better to have it in liquid form. I don't think the reasons are known, but it doesn't raise the serum sodium as much.
Orwell wasn't a linguist, so his ideas about language are suspect. Linguists study languages as natural things because that's how it works: Humans speak, humans change how they speak, and language evolves, whereas "Newspeak" was deliberately constructed such that "correctness" was controlled by a tight coterie of people in charge, utterly without regard for making language useful, which you'd know if you read the novel it comes from.

Why people think they're entitled to their own ignorance is quite beyond me.

> " ...the froznitch comprises the gronfuzzle ..."

> What we have lost by comprise being commutative is the ability to make that inference.

I think you’ve realized the value of trying to maintain precise meanings of words.

In fact, technically, we haven’t really lost the ability to make that inference, since that’s what the word means. That’s why its definition is “be made up of”. The froznitch is made up of gronfuzzle. Adding “of” to the end shouldn’t change anything. The usage of the word in reverse is the problem, and has been maintained as incorrect for hundreds of years. “Nine players comprise the team” is not grammatically correct. (Although as is noted, this has changed somewhat recently, and editors would argue not for the better)

So in fact this proves the point that editors making such changes are what help maintain the value of precise language.

I’ll just leave you with the following, since arguing definitions of words is always a losing battle, since language is too fluid.

It’s not wrong, nor “bad” to wish words change or be used in certain ways, especially when common usage of a word can cause confusion or be more ambiguous.

There’s always a place for editors, those seeking to make the written word more precise and clear, and even if you disagree with this one, or others, I would simply say that the assessment that editors are pointless, or “twits” is unfair and dismissive of their value.

> “Drivel spoken by poor colored folk is destroying our language!"

This statement comes across as virtue signaling. Pidgins, creoles etc are spoken by people of all skin colors and statuses. They are also amazing parts of cultural history.

But there’s a difference between speaking with your family, fellows, community etc, and publishing written text for mass consumption.

I don’t think anyone would argue that we’d be better off with encyclopedia’s being published in pidgin, leet speak etc etc.

Sony didn't want anything to do with this project. This was all Ken Kutaragi's ambition, and after the Nintendo disaster he joined forces with the Sony Music side of the business (!) to form Sony Computer Entertainment, and was basically given full autonomy to launch his console. Sony Music knew retailers, knew how licensing worked, and knew how to take advantage of Nintendo's greed by undercutting their margins.

As a non-native English speaker, the issue that I've had with the dual meaning of "comprise" is that I was first introduced to it via the "is comprised of" usage which resulted in me equating "comprised" with "composed" or "made up" As in: "X is comprised of Y and Z" == "X is composed of Y and Z" == "X is made up of Y and Z"

Some time later, I came across the usage "X comprises Y and Z" and, based on my previous understanding that "comprise" == "compose," I took that to mean "X composes Y and Z" which, in other words, means "Y and Z are made up of X". But really, it means the other way around which is that "X is made up of Y and Z!" Only when I learned about the dual meaning of "comprise" did I correctly understand it to mean the latter.

To this day, I still have to actively juggle this arbitrary "dual-rule" in my head when I come across "comprise."

You cannot be disappointed in this system which you know is blatantly just a "win voters by any means necessary" reward system.

> But then, unfortunately, I will admit also that about 92% of emulation, is so people can play games they did not pay for. The sense of entitlement from these people when they talk about it is often stunning, and I cannot support it. As for Homebrew, despite people talking about it, I have yet to see anyone say “XYZN is a fantastic homebrew game that really shines on the Switch specifically.”

Who cares? Most of the people using a PC have used it for piracy at one point in time. Do you think PCs should be banned? The fact that some people are going to use emulators for piracy is irrelevant, especially in the scenarios where many of these people do not have the option to purchase said game if they live in regions where they're no longer serviced. And as we've seen before, companies have had no problems taking away things you've purchased or preventing you from playing games you own.

Emulators are both legal and a public good. They are the only reason why a lot of games still exist, as there are many games that never left the consoles they were released on.

I agree with some of the points you've mentioned, but I also think that there definitely are great use-cases for AWS Lambda, and that they are (especially when using a good deployment tool) a great option for many different types of applications.

The biggest problem is that the computing model, or the architecture that is commonly required for this sort of apps (event-driven and asynchronous) is hard to develop, manage and reason about (especially with the async-lambda integrations that by default retry their work if they fail). This means that you need to think about them and architect them in a way that makes them idempotent.

If you configure everything properly, event-driven, AWS Lambda-based apps can be extremely useful. I just don't believe that the complexity required to add them to your application is worth the complexity that needs to be added to your app to make it all work.

What I wanted to say is that Lambda functions have their use-cases, and that if used reasonably, they can heavily simplify the application that they are used within.

Our product (https://stacktape.com, disclosure: Im a founder), makes it easy to deploy both container-based (ECS Fargate and ECS EC2) apps, and lambda functions, with almost no changes in the configuration). This allows our users to always choose the right technology/computing model for the use-case they are working on.
Advanced driving courses have a decidedly mixed record on improving safety, unfortunately. I believe the evidence suggests that they improve confidence more than they improve skill.

As for the Plaid, from what I’ve read the yoke and the high-speed handling are frankly dangerous. If somebody gave me one, I’d sell it and buy something where the drivetrain, the handling, and the aerodynamics are better matched.
> I'm honestly confused why researchers in one or a few fields haven't already gotten together and said e.g. "okay, instead of considering publishing in 'Cell' to be the most prestigious for biology, let start an open-source co-op journal called 'Flagella' that by design has exactly the same level of publication pickiness, and works with exactly the same peer-reviewers, as 'Cell'; and then let's all walk around getting signatures on these threshold trigger agreements at our field's conventions, where those agreements would say that that once we have enough people behind this, we'll all switch over to publishing in 'Flagella' at once, considering it to be just as prestigious as 'Cell'; and after that point, we will all be contractually bound to never publish in 'Cell' again."

There are several reasons why this has not happened.

1. The most important, researchers are not publishers and are already completely overloaded with other work (most academics typically work 60h+ a week). They neither have the time not expertise to get this started and make no mistake there would be a significant effort required to get this started.

2. There is a certain percentage of researchers who are quite happy with the status quo. These are typically the very successful researchers which don't lack funding so don't see a problem with this (obviously there are exceptions) . Unfortunately they are often also the ones who have a disproportionate influence so if they are not on board the effort is much harder.

3. The vast majority of researchers highly depends on publications in high impact journals for their grants, careers, jobs... (for younger researchers a publication in e.g. Nature can really set off your career). For a new journal to get a high impact takes at least several years, so this is a bit of a chicken and egg problem. Before the journal has the high impact most can't afford to send their best work there, but without that work you don't get the impact.
