I used a Garmin vivofit 3 for about a year and a half without a battery change. I liked it and it felt a little bit like an F91W. I switched to an Apple Watch 4 for a while and I'm back on Casio for now but I might consider another vivofit if they keep making them.

FYI small claims courts are limited -- in NY, for example, I'm fairly sure small claims can provide equitable relief but not punitive or injunctive (pay back money, but can't give you a penalty or force FB to do something).

In practice it doesn't matter (you just need to get their attention + they will fix). Depending on FB's TOS, they may try to move you to arbitration, though once again, you don't care, you just want to get expert attention.

Maybe read the TOS before filing -- you might be able to trigger arbitration directly.

FWIW I had a similar situation last year, my FB account kept getting disabled for nonspecific rules violation. After months, it turned out to be an edge case in their billing logic.

Main takeaway: they probably aren't doing this on purpose, and would like to do a good job, but can't because they don't know how.

Useful advice I got, both from their tech support person + reddit: create a business manager acct and use it to manage your facebook account. Give access to multiple people. That way if one gets disabled you can continue your business.
Firewalls pretty much have made the internet and web the same thing, as discussed on HN in many threads. About the only services on the internet that are not wholesale blocked are DNS and HTTPS. The internet's usefulness as a tool has been greatly compromised because of this.
All of the things you listed are still additional steps compared to just ssh and run the cli tool. Web UIs are nice too, for some things. But for many things, for at lot of us, the cli is where it’s at. And that is where it will continue to be.

We use Web UIs for some things, and cli tools for other things.
He has a small business, he should have a lawyer on retainer anyway. As such there may be no cost for a conversation (of course check with the contract - generally there is a cost). Even if there is a cost, one conversation with a lawyer is not $800. The costs add up quick if he goes to court, but odds are good he only needs one conversation and so the costs are minimal. A bit of legal advice can go a long way.

If he does go to court with a lawyer the costs will be a lot more than $800, but he can sue for legal fees as well as the loss. If Meta is being unreasonable enough that it has to go to court he will get those fees. A judge will not like seeing this trivial cost go to trail, if it gets that far the judge will be looking to see who is not reasonable and slapping them with as many fees and costs as he can.
When I stayed in New York, I was asked to pay a $95 a night “cleaning fee” after I paid for the room in advance. Definitely avoid “yotel” if you can.
To view Facebook as "complicit" is probably not the right way to view things. The fact of the matter is that at scale, it's almost impossible to prevent these kind of thing. Facebook is "complicit" in the same way that, say, the W3C is "complicit": by providing the tools.

Could Facebook be doing better or more? Probably. But they are surrounded by malicious actors from all sides, ranging from people who issue coordinated takedown requests like in this story to people who use Facebook to maliciously push "fake news" stories to just banal and boring spammers to outright scams. Balancing this all out and keeping a grip on things at scale is very hard, perhaps even impossible.

Even HN would be vulnerable to these kind of attacks; HN's scale is much smaller than Facebook's but still much too large for anyone to really get a "grip" on. A few years ago one of my stories got flagged[1], and while I'm probably biased I don't think it should be (I probably should have email dang about it, but I didn't post it myself and didn't really want to bother him with it). Was it "coordinated"? Probably not. The end result is the same though: people abuse the "flag" feature to hide stories they would prefer to not be seen. I also know for a fact that some companies will coordinate employees to upvote comments and stories because I worked for a company that did this.

Is HN currently under attack from coordinated flagging? Maybe, maybe not. I would be surprised if it hasn't happened on at least some occasions, and the only reason it doesn't happen more often is that it's small enough to fly under the radar for most of these kind of government agencies.

I think it's important to have a good understanding of the situation as only with a good understanding can you come up with a good solution. "Facebook bad" may or may not be true, but it is not a good understanding of things.

Keycloak is good for most use cases. I heard that some teams failed with Cognito (AWS).

But for the current product I built my own server. I was tired of fighting some Keycloak specifics like
- No "stay logged in forever if you use the (web) application from time to time".
- Bugs around caching (especially in integration tests).
- No zero downtime deployment (should be fixed soon, too late for me)
- Weaknesses around configuration. I used to use keycloak-config-cli, which is good enough for most use cases.

And some missing functionality that needs to be implemented very often, like "Accept ToS before profile is created". Having said that, Keycloak is a very good product and I haven't found a better free and open source product. But sometimes it is not the right choice.

By the way, I personally don't plan to outsource user data and credentials to a 3rd party service. Although Auth0 is very sexy.
I think your intuition that gpt4 could function as you described is frankly highly unrealistic.

Hello,

Currently, my script is in the very early stages of development, and I'm still in the process of fine-tuning it.

At its core, the script reads all comments of a given post and performs sentiment analysis to derive insights. While my immediate focus is on sentiment analysis, I plan to incorporate classification capabilities down the line. The results will be presented on a web interface in the form of graphs and text to help users better understand the data.
We are very lucky that Valve is privately owned and that GabeN retains majority control (at least he did last I checked). He is famously "pro gamer" and IMO one of the main reasons Valve hasn't gone through enshittification (yet).

My fear is that once he goes, the bulwark goes with him.

> Biochar is the lightweight black residue, made of carbon and ashes, remaining after the pyrolysis of biomass. Biochar is defined by the International Biochar Initiative as "the solid material obtained from the thermochemical conversion of biomass in an oxygen-limited environment".

You may be thinking of biochar specifically as a soil amendment, where it is sometimes loaded with probiotics and such:

If the goal of a project was to, "use a type safe language" then it can only be successful if you use a type safe language.

If the goal of a project is to, "create a crud app for your 5 coworkers" then it really doesn't matter whether you use SQL or not.

If the goal of a project is to, "server 100 billion requests per second" then maybe you should consider microservices in a monorepo (those things are not mutually exclusive).

Success, or not, only matters in the context in which you have defined success.
IMO, part of having a social platform actually retain quality long-term is not ever making it too good. You've got to discourage the masses of people who mainly post memes, puns, and jokes to everything if you want the people who actually make insightful posts to stay around and write posts, and for them to be visible and upvoted.

Reddit is kind of an example of both - how low-quality the discourse is in big default subs and on their new interface and app, and how quality is still retained in some places with much smaller memberships with users who mostly prefer the old UI or mobile apps that are more friendly towards reading and writing longer posts.
I think it’s important to note that this is just showing that Neanderthal were sailing long before modern human remains of sailing were dated to - lll

Modern humans and Neanderthals (and Denisovians) coexist for about 100-150k years before modern humans basically killed them all after interbreeding.

I doubt it, the ruling members of the party are pretty much there since the end of the war and look much much older than the population, I'm not sure they even grasp the modern Vietnam much as seen during the disastrous covid food delivery by the army.

There's a power divide but also a generation divide.
If there existed a magic wand to make longer addresses work with existing stuff sure, but since there didn't, you have all the exact same problems as ipv6 which is already basically the same thing as ipv4 anyway with 128 bit addressing, and some minor tweaks to how the "arp" works.

If you can articulate how this magic wand would work in practice we're all ears since you solved a worldwide problem, but I'm betting my salary that you can't.

Is this not a problem that is easily solved in principle. For each 1 million views of a Stranger Things episode (after some date threshold), the writer gets n dollars. The contract would state that this clause transfers to any new ownership (just in case Paramount+ or whatever it's called now buys them and their catalog out).

Sure, they won't want to negotiate to allow this... but what's the difficult here besides unwillingness? It's basically the same thing as now, except that as rights to Friends and Seinfeld are bandied about, the value proposition for those is a little more clear (some network paid $1.1 billion to be able to air reruns for the next 14 years or whatever).

You'd think if there was some neutral arbitrator, they might settle what the format/pattern of that residuals clause would be, so that the two parties could just sit down and haggle out the actual numbers.
Stop the credit card immediately. Get rid of the card; not new number. This staunches the flow.
Ever wanted to use an API and found the documentation to be lacking?

GitHub code search pretty much solves that. For any API you can find an example of someone else using it.

I've been using it for this for a year now and I wouldn't want to live without it.
> Peter Hitchens is a loon

Hitchens is certainly out there. But everybody knows that, and expects it. He's a controversialist, and whatever views you have, he'll have written a trenchant article denouncing at least a few of them.
> One restaurant that decided to franchise early was The Hobby House in Fort Wayne, Indiana. There, Colonel Sanders befriended head cook Dave Thomas. The seasoned veteran took young Thomas under his wing, providing the novice with sage advice and mentoring him in the ways of the restaurant. Thomas would go on to manage several successful Kentucky Fried Chicken franchises. Later Thomas founded his own franchise, a hamburger chain called Wendy’s that has enjoyed some success.

It seems like his life was an unbelievable series of escapades and coincidences.

Though the article didn't mention that he eventually did retire, to suburban Toronto to manage his Canadian franchises that held out for longer with the original quality, and never went back to live in Kentucky.
Ask HN: Are junk email filters getting worse?
For the past 2 years I've watched my outlook email inbox devolve into a cesspool of junk and phishing emails. I need to go through about a hundred junk emails daily to find just a handful of actual legitimate emails. I noticed recently that my gmail inbox has also started to spiral out of control for the past few months. I feel like it was never THIS bad before. With all this growth of AI and LLMs I would think that seeing emails in my inbox promoting male enhancement drugs promising 4 more inches would be a thing of the past. If that wasn't bad enough these emails are often flagged as important (in the case of outlook).
Fair point. I guess im coming from the perslective that these records are already in EPIC and other medical record systems, why do we allow this if were gonna get offline docs? And if theyre already loaded, why not have a system that allows that data to be useable to us in a digitally native format?
Thanks! Hmm, can you drill down into sets of pages like you can in UA? That was a pretty key feature.

I'll have a look, seems promising.
It's a crap argument. We have evidence that certain states -- China, Russia, Israel, Vietnamn, etc. -- employs state-sponsored troll groups. We don't have evidence that most countries use such strategies. It's like claiming that Japan has the worst ninjas since good ninjas don't expose themselves and we haven't heard anything about other countries' ninjas.

No, the purpose of Intel is to make money.

> If the only true end goal of every corporation is to make money, then eventually we would eventually end up in a financial shell game where money is shuttled around ledgers while nothing of value is created

No, we end up with Intel manufacturing chips (in order to make money). If Intel becomes unable to make money manufacturing chips, I guarantee they will stop doing it.

I feel so uneasy with a ‘division?’ of government defined as “ends justify.” The Constitution does not exist in those halls (as evidenced), and if one assumes an limit to infinity state, many tyrannical actions could take place.

Do you feel that fear is misplaced? Or do we derive societal level benefit from the unfortunate things that could (and do?) occur?
Yeah, I figured =D
I don't think using LaTeX for the resume matters. I've been using Markdown to build my resume for ages, and I've seen resumes that are handcrafted HTML, and I've seen resumes that are just a text file. The format only matters as much as it display something about you (if you're a web developer/frontend person, you should have a high quality web resume) and how it affects readability. Otherwise, I don't care as a hiring manager / interviewer.

If LaTeX helps you get it done and lets you generate multiple formats easily, go for it. I use pandoc + markdown to generate mine, and it supports LaTeX inputs as well. Don't expect the person reading the PDF attached in the hiring system 10 minutes before the interview call to care whether you used LaTeX or not, or even to comment on it.

Summary: Rifle rounds are more deadly than pistol rounds, which is well known to anyone who knows anything about guns.

Aside from that one sentence of common knowledge it is just a lot of fear mongering about AR-15’s.

“ The Post determined that there is a public interest in demonstrating the uniquely destructive power of the AR-15 when used to kill. “

Firstly, there is nothing unique about an AR-15 compared to other intermediate caliber rifles. There are a plethora of other rifles on the market with the exact same capabilities.

Secondly, the .223/5.56 round they use called intermediate for a reason. It is illegal to use for hunting deer in many states because it doesn’t have enough power for humane kills. The reason militaries use them is for better recoil control during fully automatic fire and so you can carry more ammo for suppressive fire.

It is nonsensical that gun control advocates hold it up as some kind of absurdly powerful super bullet and a clear indicator that they have no idea what they are talking about.
Look, I've never seen microservices done well. I'm negative about it because people are implementing this architecture in applications that as far as I can tell should never even consider it. Maybe they're just doing it badly. But as far as far as I can tell it's a pretty awful architecture pattern.

To implement microservices, one takes what is a service in a normal application, a handful of code files in a normal application. Maybe some model files, a service, validators and a repo file. A slice of an application.

One creates a new project file, build files, etc. Maybe a new repo, maybe not. You then wrap that simple service in a bunch of boilerplate plumbing code so it can actually work on its own.

So, basically, a ton of extra code, right off the bat. Each time.

Then to do it right according to this thread, you duplicate the definition files between your services, multiple times, add JSON schema files that you didn't have to maintain before, and, someone else has mentioned, create an extra library on top of all this so your colleagues can implement it as if it were just a normal method call.

Even more code!

And that's your microservice. A lot of extra work. Busy work as far as I can see, no benefits. Just to do exactly what it used to do.

But, worse still, it has huge drawbacks, including:

1. Very slow "method" calls. Normal method calls are obviously orders of magnitude faster than whatever you're doing. L1 Cache is always going to be massively faster.
2. Poor debugging
3. Complicated devops requirement
4. Hidden complexity in the interaction between services that is impossible to see

I just don't get it. Never have. I tried to play along, but I personally think the emperor has no clothes. If a client is going to insist on microservices, so be it, but it's a massive waste of time and money in my opinion.

I haven't met vercel. Hudson, buildbot, in house thing built from scratch for some reason - all bad associations here.

A CI / deployment pipeline that you can't run locally is absolutely a disaster. You end up building different code to prod, in different fashion, and generally hoping that bugfixes to the local one will be meaningful in the CI one.

Buildbot calling a top level makefile that does everything, fine. Some java thing that is configured through a web gui and thus can never be restarted if it ever disappears, not fine.

I love the idea of CI and loathe every instance I have ever used.
> A table with 2x10 table with the data is not going to make an article too long

It is if you're going to do it for every statistic. eg. in a story about gen Z skipping college, you could have statistics about tuition rate, student loan amount, time to graduate, graduation rate, earnings after graduation, etc. Add to that, all of the statistics but separated by various demographic factors (eg. geography, age, race), and you can easily have dozens of tables. That's fine if you're writing a 20 page graduate dissertation, but for a daily article on npr.org or whatever that's just overkill.

Not to mention, in many cases the reason why it's being omitted from news stories isn't because of some nefarious motives by the author, it's because the source material only mentions medians. eg. most of the BLS news releases only has medians/averages: https://www.bls.gov/news.release/empsit.toc.htm, so any news stories based off them are inevitably going to not have decile level data like you demand, through no nefarious motivation on the part of the writer.
