It comes from the same place the human market maker profit came from; there's just much less of it, because computers bid the price down.
Yeah you really need a weight-mile tax to pay for roads. This opens a bit of a can of worms: people don’t want the government tracking where they go, but you kind of need that info to collect the tax. Or at least enough info to know how many driven miles were in which taxing jurisdiction.

New Windows is bloated with the stuff I don’t want to see as well.
Quite a few of my faves already mentioned in this thread so let me throw in a couple of relatively lesser-known ones:

- City by Clifford Simak
- Everything by M.A.Foster, but Waves and the Transformer Trilogy in particular
- You Must Remember Us...? by Leonard Daventry
- The Green Man and Other Stories by Rand B. Lee (in particular the story Knight of Shallows)
- The Star Wolf series by David Gerrold

And a few easily overlooked ones by Philip K. Dick:

- Clans of the Alphane Moon
- The Game-Players of Titan
- Now Wait for Last Year.

Oh, I see. I hadn't heard of Vaultwarden.

edit: It was recently renamed from bitwarden_rs which I was familiar with.
To the contrary, I'd wager the price is the first thing every Apple shareholder would care about after demoing a VR product. Many of these people are not stupid investors and know the market is hot. Even if Apple doesn't explicitly tell them the price, these people know that price is a constraining factor. Especially if they're handed a piece of hardware with a battery dangling off the side like it's a 2012 Oculus demokit.
SF stores have closed because their employees are no longer safe. Conferences are leaving SF. Mostly everyone who starts a family leaves SF.

Shoplifting, car break-ins, homelessness, drugs, public defecation, public intoxication, high costs of life. Used needles, empty bottles of alcohol.

There is no reason to be in SF anymore. If you think otherwise is because you've lived there so long that you've lost perspective of what you can acquire with whatever you are paying there.

The authorities in SF are the encyclopedic definition of learned helplessness.
agreed, same with tempe. Should be way cheaper than it is.
From a building safety perspective, I wonder if meth labs in such apartments is a relevant risk.
It does the literal opposite thing: it provides value to every market participant (except the inefficient human market makers and commercial brokers it replaced).
Austin isn't exactly a poster child for affordability these days - $1-2M houses are common there, and don't get you much more than in SF or on the Peninsula.

The advantage of Austin is that the suburbs still have reasonably affordable homes (< $500K), while in the Bay Area you're looking at $1M+ even out to the Tri-Valley area. But high housing prices follow money, for pretty basic supply & demand reasons. If a place starts getting widespread prosperity housing prices will eventually catch up.
Isn’t supply and demand the right solution here? Low pay means less people want to be teachers or change careers. Then there is a teacher supply crisis, and pay has to go up to deal with that. Since you can’t force people to do the job if they think it is not worth doing, can’t we reach an equilibrium?

And if teacher shortages persist without pay being touched, isn’t that to be expected?
Seems like you're using btrfs for repos.archlinux.org. Any problems with reliability and/or performance? Very rarely does someone share their experience if everything is working fine, regardless of a technology in question.
The mid frame and thermal module costs are unlikely, but not strictly impossible. I can’t contrive of any scenario where there would be $20 of microphone BOM in a headset though.
These keyboards are “interesting” to look at, but I find that the more ergonomic they are, the more they reinforce the idea that you’re a human, who needs human shaped things, and a human is all you’ll ever be.

As such, I do not like using them. In fact, my favorite keyboards are Ortholinear, where keys are arranged in a straight grid of rows and columns with no deviation, and I especially enjoy combining this aesthetic with blank keys. There is no better looking keyboard than this, it appeals to an intellectual’s sensibilities, and when you master the use of one, you feel you have ascended beyond the status of mere human, and into something more. A union between man and machine.

Now that is how a keyboard should make you feel: ergonomics for the soul.
Am I crazy to think Oakland won't be affected nearly as much as SF?

We never had much of a boom, and I don't think conditions have deteriorated nearly as much. In part because they were never great to begin with :)
As an author better known for other genres, C.S. Lewis wrote an exceptional as Sci-Fi trilogy beginning in the 1930s. He would finish it in by the 1950s. Heavy in philosophy and combatting the currently popular ideas of eugenics and Wells’ ideation of human conquering of the solar system and eventual universe, it was a great read.
Techbro8615's comment is a reference/verbatim transcript to the opening bit of American Psycho (the movie): A psychotic yuppie internalizes self-care marketing to such an extent that their life turns into an infomercial. The satire is as biting now as in the 1990s, hence the cult status of the movie/book.

Edit: this reference is as obligatory here on this topic as an XKCD reference for other topics.
I really don't know how many accounts I have, for most of them I don't even store passwords, I just generate them in a deterministic way with a little password generator I made[0].

Some time ago I realized what a waste was to store so many secrets, even more knowing that for the most part I'll probably never need them again.

For the - proportionally few - important secrets, I use (and really like) Pass[1].

I didn't test it with curl because I was assuming it would be used on the frontend, but as afn mentioned, I think it should work correctly if you add -g as shown below:
curl -g -v 'https://echoserver.dev/server?query={"headers":[["foo","bar"...}'

Also, I am using render.com for hosting, and render.com uses Cloudflare internally, so it seems that related headers are also included. However, I believe this should not be a problem for testing purposes.
In the same way, any ripple effects are just the natural consequence of a market economy. We chose this, and we’re getting exactly what we ordered.

> more money to be spend on QoL improvements than renting office space

Who is going to spend money on QoL improvements? The corporations who would've spent it on office space will keep it as profits, not invest it in the city of San Francisco. The city will have much less money to spend on QoL because of greatly diminished tax revenue.

I don’t reread books as a rule, but I’ve reread these, and TLR at least five times.

I can rattle of an endless list of authors I like, but by organic evidence of “favorites” these stand out.
In my humble opinion, having a one-shot shift on your secondary thumb is something everyone should try.

I personally use auto-shift (long press for shift) on my 34 key layout, but I think most would prefer the one-shot shift.
>> It's an emulator collection but their goal is perfect compatibility over any effort to optimize performance.

Then I can easily see why Dolphin would have no interest in joining such a project; what with the incredible focus on and borderline unbelievable achievements with performance they’ve made.

Totally different projects, totally different goals.
Unfortunately we subsidize driving way more than public transport, so I’m not sure how well this works.
Many cities, towns and villages in Europe are arranged like this, traditionally.

Surely the push is towards moving industry into dedicated areas (outside town) though.

I'm gonna add that soon :) I wanted to get the flat design right first, but I've already figured out rounded corners using SVG masks, so supporting them properly shouldn't be too hard
Being poor and famous is probably the worst case but money alone isn't necessarily enough to protect you if you do not have power and a support network of loyal people.

Both Amy Winehouse and Britney Spears come to my mind as having become enormously popular (and rich on paper) very quickly but lacking the power and support to distance themselves from people that were bad for them.

I remember the story where Amy Winehouse served tea and cake to the Paparazzi waiting outside in the cold for her. This could have been a brilliant joke if she was above all this, but we know she wasn't. She was feeding the predators that were after her and that despite having enough money to pay for protection.
The education can be grueling, you have to spend lots of time in the computer lab while your friends in other majors are drinking/partying. A lot of people claim we develop bad mental health and social skills. That definitely limits supply somewhat.
I've read a lot of scifi but I'd recommend only one to make sure you get the point:

The "remembrance of earth's past" trilogy (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remembrance_of_Earth%27s_Pas...) which is more known as "the three body problem". All the books are great but my favourite by a large margin is "the dark forest" (part 2)
Microsoft got people to pay $3k for a 2010 version of this tech. And USD is worth 40% less since then.
Denver is an interesting case because, historically, a lot of the commercial real estate has been occupied by oil and gas (roughly 20%), as well as industries that serve oil and gas (lots of lawyers, etc.).

Oil and gas is a notoriously boom and bust as an industry. The knock on effect is that some management companies will hold back some vacancy at extremely high rates for the next boom. When you are dealing with 10 and 20 year leases, it can make sense to sit on an empty building through a few years of bust until a big tenant flush with cash shows up.
The Expanse books are great. The TV show is a pretty good adaptation too, but I love the portrayal of the characters in the books.

A recent thing I started reading (first book release this month) is The Last Horizon series by Will Wight (author of Cradle, and Elder Empire books). This one's more of a sci-fi and fantasy blend, if you're into that sort of thing. In a nutshell, it's magic-as-technology, but with space travel.
The intellect(God-adjacent) / animal dichotomy within humans and their condition is a an old embedded quandry of theology.

The weather is nice, I'll grant you that. Any Atlantic climate place with volcanoes has nice weather. I'll take the volcanoes over The Nederlands, thank you.
Berlin's Pergamon museum is also closing soon - 4 years completely, and some sections will be closed for 14 years.
The bar exam is stupid and a joke anyways, and is not a test or predictor of "lawyer competence"
That it's not like npm, pip, or maven is a plus in my view: I despise all three of them.

I don't like the proxy system at all. It is not, in fact, easy to set up a private proxy that "just works." Also, it is quite trivial to have "sync" issues with the go.mod and go.sum files that manage/"lock" dependencies. `go mod tidy`, `clean -modcache`, etc., are required far too often. And it has the same problem with dependencies-of-dependencies that python does. It leads to bloat and sometimes inconsistent behaviors in applications.
Here’s a book I don’t expect to see on too many lists (and I’m surprised it’s on mine, as I don’t typically like big-property universes like Star Trek): The Final Reflection, John M Ford. It’s an ancient book (by Star Trek standards-1984) set in the original ST:TOS universe, but it did Klingon world-building before that was a thing (it’s not canon, as it did this long before Klingons were fleshed out in any real way). Loved the worldbuilding, loved that it made a then 2-dimensional alien into a rich 3-d society.
First they brick machines on purpose by requiring on-brand ink. Now this? I hope they are sued. Repeatedly.
Roger Ebert always tried to review movies on what they were trying to do and not on an absolutist scale of good/bad.

IMO the Bobiverse books are trying to have a fun go at a few different big sci-fi concepts and on that basis I think they're fairly successful.

They encourage accidentally quadratic behavior if they are easier than calling sort().
The recognition-driven founder is vulnerable to manipulation and eventually to losing the company. In the past that could come from over-raising, over spending (size of raise and number of people and press feeds the desire for recognition), VCs then have a blank check to change the leader at first signs of struggle etc. The healthier approach to this would focus on the customers and making the business successful with or without funding. PMF without funding is glorious and reason to go for funding at a much better valuation, or to wait out for better market environment. The people who need to care are you customers. Everyone else doesn’t matter. Especially when the moment you start advertising that you’ve raised money is the moment you wave a juicy steak at the face of your competitors and asking for them to come after your market.
This is great, thank you! Any chance you'd consider making binaries available for download? I wanted to try out the CLI but I haven't used rust before, and I got as far as installing `cargo` via `rustup` but I can't figure out how to download and build the cli.

The badges look great and I love that this is available as both a web service (easy to link to) and as a CLI tool (no risk of depending on your web service).
Conversely I think these are some of the worst books I’ve ever read (and I’ve read basically everything mentioned in this thread). The characters are uninteresting, the plot is haphazard and the ideas are derivative. I can see how it would be appealing if you don’t read much at all but once you’ve experience some higher quality stuff it’s just bad.
> Redis is a database

Do you have an example of an use case for which using Redis as a database works significantly better than using say Postgres or MySQL?
Maybe they produce the same results (I don't know), but Pylance using Pyright doesn't mean that Pylance is Pyright.

One important difference in this case is that while "Pylance leverages Microsoft's open-source static type checking tool, Pyright" [1], Pylance itself is not open source. In fact, the license [2] restricts you to "use [...] the software only with [...] Microsoft products and services", which means that you are not allowed to use it with a non-Microsoft open source fork of VS Code, for example.

The license terms also say that by accepting the license, you agree that "The software may collect information about you and your use of the software, and send that to Microsoft" and that "You may opt-out of many of these scenarios, but not all".

Is there a reason why you have a mix of github and gitlab?
you dont need CS degree to be employed as software engineer or consult, you need law degree / license or what have you in US or anywhere else to practice law

never said lawyers work only 1 or 2 hours on a case, but still imho lawyers consulting for 1 hour is much more common than software developers consulting for 1 hour.
> So I decided to roll my own, using a Rust library and Cloudflare workers.

What is Cloudflare workers Rust support is like? I'd be a a complete Rust noob and looking for a dev environment with some code completion. Is that feasible today? Could you share your dev environment?
HN has had thousands of posts like this by someone making something that was interesting to them and sharing it with others. That's part of the hackers ethos.

I wouldn't consider myself a developer or programmers, but more on the support side. I've made little tools like this when trying to figure out what's going with our proprietary software. By setting up 'fake' servers that dump as much debug information as possible you can get a lot of useful information. Especially when the application developer decides not to put functionality like that in the product in the first place.
Thank you for your comment! I appreciate your constructive advice. I will take it into consideration for the next implementation.

Ah but here's the thing: for things that affect me alone, perhaps just let me do it. An alternative, that I believe could be effective, is a bond that is paid into and managed in a similar way as 401k plans are.

E.g. say I want to try heroin. I furnish the $250k into the fund, get to try it, and 4 y later I get my money back if I pass a heroin drug test.

It's too bad more languages don't support tail call elimination. Tail recursion is even more difficult to grok than ordinary recursion, but once you grok it it's much easier to express many algorithms that way than with loops. Even though the assembler code generated from both may be identical.

As a Common Lisp programmer I think in mappings and tail recursion and I dislike using the loop construct. Sometimes loop is still the best solution but it's not as elegant.
Contrastively I really enjoyed the museum’s collection and also the rooftop restaurant! Perhaps the art wasn’t to your taste?

These renovations are expensive yes, but they provide good jobs and economic stimulus. It’s been a while since I’ve been to Paris but when the renovation is complete I’ll be sure to return.
I would be inherently suspicious of videos. They are poor ways to engage critically with something. They can engage in exaggeration, misrepresentation, and outright lies, and you can't easily check them.

It would be so much more believable to just provide a link to the publisher or Amazon. But it's so easy to make a video and have people repeat the accusation.
That is maybe for the lowest cost, lowest quality houses in the US.

See "Average Construction Costs of Single-Family and Multi-Family Residential Buildings Per Square Foot in the U.S." on [1] for costs within major cities, you will see that costs are much higher than that, even if not 1k psf.

Kurt Vonnegut, Neil Stephenson, William Gibson. Though Vonnegut would fight the label, his first free novels could be considered sci Fi. I like them better than the later ones
My absolute favorite is Stand on Zanzibar by John Brunner, The Jagged Orbit was also excellent. Other than that, of course Snow Crash is a masterpiece, but I think my favorite Stephenson book is The Diamond Age. Another excellent one is Daemon by Daniel Suarez whose books are quite fascinating and look at generally pretty topical plotlines (I was just thinking I have to revisit his book Kill Decision about AI enabled killer drones).

This is unnecessarily reductive, but it probably sounded good in your head or if someone only considers it for a few seconds before thinking about it.

Of course meaning can be instant, and value can be delayed.
From another article:

> That Paris’s Pompidou Centre is to close for four years from 2023 for yet more maintenance comes as no surprise. Weeds have long sprouted from its ultra-finicky superstructure, while the job of keeping it scraped free of pigeon poo and painted in the prescribed infrastructural colour palette – red for people, blue for air, yellow for electricity and green for water – rivals the Forth Bridge for unrelenting laboriousness.

It sounds like the Centre has maintenance problems nearing the coastline-paradox variety...

> ‘There were two options,’ France’s culture minister Roselyne Bachelot told Le Figaro. ‘One involved renovating the centre while keeping it open, the other was closing it completely. I chose the second because it should be shorter and a little bit less expensive.’

It's interesting that this logic somehow misses or skips the weighty symbolic aspect of shutting down a cultural landmark. Presumably this is most of why the news is newsworthy.

Maybe everybody hates the place, but still. Closing down completely sends a pretty big message in the primal sense in which things are alive or dead, usable or not, up or down, and what you typically aim for at worst is a set of circumstances that strike a balance between those aspects.

It's also going to be a slower option in terms of visitor access, which is kind of funny in that it's a near-reversal of the logical benefit one would rationally want. This makes me wonder if the budget gets any benefit at all from visitor payments...(I've worked with cultural sites that flat out told me: We don't want more guests here, and we definitely don't want more membership-holding guests)

Only the murder itself should be illegal. If it's some kind of weird pornography, for example, then the filming and distribution of it could be illegal.

If we try to prosecute whether it's viewed for pleasure or not, then we are trying to prosecute thought crimes. We are trying to prosecute someone's state of mind there.

No, just viewing someone's death does not violate privacy laws, in my opinion. But if you share the material with others, than it might be right to make that illegal, in my opinion.

We should take such material down, but nobody should ever see jail time or any form of punishment for viewing or reading anything, in a free society. Any situation otherwise is a hallmark of a police state, and it shows how far the Overton window has shifted. How much the frog has boiled over the years.

And seeing the harm caused by the War on Drugs and countless other cases of overcriminalization, it may well be we are living in a de-facto police state, and unaware of it. We've internalized and accepted loss of our fundamental liberties over the years. And this trend started roughly around 1980 or so.
