> A newspaper owned by one billionaire might on occasion dig up some dirt on another.

This does not describe the story above in any way.

A choice of billionaires is a very poor menu.

I don't "just dismiss them for that reason", I gave some reasons above.

What do you mean by "alternative news sources" ? Give an example.
I used slog for a project a few months ago; then I stopped working on it and continued on it a few weeks ago and there were all sorts of incompatible changes.

That's completely fair; it's still in development so this isn't a complaint! But just saying, at this point you need to be prepared to have to deal with that.
The best keyboard controllers are made by companies that also make pianos. What I'd recommend is searching for the term "stage piano" -- these are compact instruments that are designed to be a piano first but can also be used as a MIDI controller. You'll get solid piano sounds and an upper-end keyboard action from these out of the box, but can also hook up MIDI to your laptop if you want to explore software-based synthesizers/VSTs.
$53M sounds like a rounding error for accountants at Meta. Why was this such a big deal?
This seems like a weirdly public rollout.

I've always had the intuition that bigcorps with relaxed anti piracy enforcement were better off because of networks effects and goodwill.

This honestly makes me want to cancel my subscription.

Why not just silently do this? What's the actual deal here?
I still have a Netflix account as my family in another country use it. If get this letter I will probably close the account
Are they actually blocking extra users, or is this just the precursor?
Probably relevant to this opinion is that AM radio is a cesspool of blatant conservative lies and rage bait. It's what the angriest folks on the right pay attention to. That's why it's "Free speech" despite being the single most regulated form of communication.

No other form of "speech" needs a license, yet they think it's the free-ist there is.
That was not a description. I merely appended the primary motivation for pipelining. We trade latency for throughput in pipelining.*

It's also not opinion. When pipelining, the communicating peers are not sychronizing their interactions; it occurs in an a-synchronous manner. Where does opinion get into the picture?

* since we typically end up packing a multiplicity of requests in a given MTU and further we can saturate the link (on both ends) since we are not blocking for a response before sending the next request. In synchronous protocols, the full bandwidth can't be utilized as there are cycles where the link (on respective sides) is idle.

As for description of pipelining, this question came up years ago in Redis's newsgroup and I posted the following (It starts sync and the final segment is 'pipelining' :)

I do all my HN browsing on this "minimalist" mobile client called Glider. It's actually great, feels modern and you upvote and reply with swipe actions instead of buttons, which I actually like.
Somehow I find “clarifications” which rescind an obviously boneheaded move to be more annoying. At least the bad-update isn’t an attempt to totally gaslight us.
Rural voters as a bloc seem determined to vote in support of laissez-faire socioeconomic approaches which incentivize this result. I suppose it’s possible that they don’t intend this and merely are thoughtless about it from a policy standpoint, but if we’re being generous it also seems plausible to assume they’re not being stupid and this is either acceptable or part of the intended result.
When I paste my writings from Emacs into a textarea I don’t get this I get a captcha instead.
I don't understand their logic.

First: you can subscribe to n simultaneous streams/downloads. Ours is 2, and sometimes the kids complain, and end up sorting it out somehow.*

Second: if you have a kid at college, they "live at home" for various other mechanisms (count as a dependent for taxation; qualify for parents' health insurance, can vote in their home district regardless of where they live; can be part of a family phone plan, family apple plan, etc etc...)

* And third: they don't seem to argue about netflix much any more; I think if I dropped the sub to a single session everybody would still be fine. Netflix seems to have an increasing density of junk content, losing its distinguished position.
Time will tell if this is the right move. Personally I can't remember the last time I watched any content that came from NF. I think the last time I even considered something on their platform was when Stranger Things season 2 was released. Maybe.

Something tells me this isn't going to go the way the would have hoped.

Hello, I'm an aspiring entrepreneur looking to validate my idea focused on privately syncing your personal events to your work calendar so that your teammates do not schedule meetings when you have personal events booked already.

The initial solution would involve a website where you can connect your personal and work calendars (Google/Outlook) and then setup syncs between different calendars. Then it would synchronize
all events from a calendar to another while making those events private. It also would synchronize new events as they come up and delete events that were deleted from the original calendar.

I'm currently trying to guage how much of a problem this is in people's lives, as such I'd greatly appreciate your input on a brief survey. Thank you for your time and valuable feedback!

FTFY. China is the actively belligerent party when it comes to Taiwan. The US doesn't want to invade either one. Don't forget the ongoing Uighur genocide in Xinjiang.
From previous information I've seen, they'd have to physically go home once a month and use Netflix on their device there. Otherwise that device will get flagged.
Reminds me of Aksak rhythms in Middle Eastern / Mediterranean traditions. If you try to translate it to Western schemas, it is roughly 9/8. But that's not really correct, as that would imply 9 evenly spaced notes, with an emphasis on every 3 notes, or maybe a 4+5, or something like that. It's closer if you break it down like 2+2+2+3 (baka baka baka bakata), but that's also not quite right if you actually feel the flow. It's also not exactly the same duration eights. It really feels like a free flowing pulse (at whatever the 4/4 tempo would be), with a hiccup, almost like 4.333/4.

Master of Puppets has the same sort of feel going on. Chugging on 4/4, and then a lurchy measure of truncated 3/4 (like 2.5/4 and change). It doesn't feel "5/8-y" to me at all. It's fundamentally not on the meter - it's a groove. Much like non-Western tone systems don't map squarely onto 12 equal tones (or even 24). It's just a different schema.

I don't know if it was a conscious or subconscious choice, or if it just "sounds sick, man", but I feel like the solid 4/4 pulse that gets you headbanging, and then a measure which just gets yanked out from under, really invokes the feeling of someone who doesn't have control, who is having their strings pulled.

My "became even dumber" was somewhat tongue and cheek, but a lower brain volume is what they are seeing in humans, bonobos, elephants, dogs - when compared to the "wilder" cousins/ancestors.

>Like this is what people talk about when they say a lack of privilege ages them prematurely.

I don't... know if I agree? I think generally being oppressed by the privilege class is quite detrimental to one's health, as well as having less access to things like healthcare. Compound this with a complete gaslighting of the privilege class telling the lesser that they actually DO have it well off and have NO reason to complain - all the while distancing the haves to the have-nots, and it's no wonder that well: there aren't as many violent uprising happening (and the ones that are, usually are spun to not be seen that way). Yeah - yeah: that can age someone.
The fact that in extreme circumstances we pull explanations out of our asses (or even that we do so in non-extreme circumstances) doesn't mean we are incapable of genuine meta-cognition. No one is rational most of the times, but mathematicians can be rational for brief periods on limited subjects.

That'd be me. With adults out of the way, I learned to be self-sufficient and I learned how to navigate complex social situations on my own. In short, I learned how to think. Whatever stuff in my life worked out well - I can trace it all to that.

My 5 kids had always-present parenting (because independent growth became effectively illegal+impossible). Being it's such a counterproductive situation, it required strictness to pull it off.

They're adults now and all live with me.
I only use Debian in theaters.
It's not even close. Each air passenger on a fuel-powered plane generates the equivalent environmental externalities of an entire electric train...or more.

Market pricing is not an indicator of the cost of externalities; it is an indicator of the cost of internalities. They're called "externalities" precisely because they're not represented in the price curve.
Why don't you subscribe to the more reasonable explanation that accenting male genitalia doesn't confer an advantage and instead seem to be advocating for a "it does, but it's illegal," stance which doesn't seem to be rooted in reality?

Based on your comments, what seems to be driving your position instead is an assumption that there is a grave social injustice aimed at men. Is it not?
Also the bird is gigantic (relative to the laptop)!
What are the customers going to do, buy someone else's car that also has a terrible touch screen from the same manufacturer?

American businesses are hell bent of ignoring anything but the dollar sign at the bottom of the balance sheet, and since they all use the exact same value and prioritization system, they can all do the exact same thing without technically colluding, preventing any consumer from ever doing the free market thing and buying something better.
I think this fits, implicitly anyways: “Theophilus, don’t perform oral sex on girls against the city wall like a dog.”

> Overall it'll be interesting to see how much impact this actually has or doesn't have for subscription volume. My guess is maybe not as much as the usual uproared comments would have you think.

I suspect you're right about this. This change has no effect on the people who aren't sharing their account, so those people have very little incentive to comment except perhaps out of sympathy for those who it will affect. So most of the uproar will understandably be negative, even if a majority of users do not share their account.
From https://www.cnet.com/tech/services-and-software/netflix-is-c... :

> "We love people sharing Netflix," CEO Reed Hastings said Wednesday at the Consumer Electronics Show here in Las Vegas. "That's a positive thing, not a negative thing."

> Hastings, who earlier in the day also revealed Netflix was now in 130 countries, didn't address broad password swapping, but did say a household sharing an account was fine. A lot of the time, he said, household sharing leads to new customers because kids subscribe on their own as they start to earn income.

I mention this lest anyone wrongly think Netflix has the moral high ground on this. Their CEO explicitly said it was OK to share your account, especially with your kids. It's not like those of us who did so were trying to be sneaky and steal service.

If Netflix wants to change the rules, that's their right. I loathe that this is sometimes being portrayed as a crackdown on piracy, though.
Didn't we largely solve this with the sky crane for recent Mars missions?
So I would not be allowed to watch Netflix on my work computer during my lunch break?

If you read the GPT-4 technical report you can see that the unrestricted model (that people could be running at home) are capable of some pretty large-scale horribleness.
I found it odd also, I was under the impression that hospitals made their money on private insurance and lost on medicare/Medicaid. I do recall hearing that rural hospitals are reimbursed at a higher rate from the government, perhaps that explains the discrepancy.
Apple tried. Recall the huge IP licensing battle from a year or two ago where Apple challenged Qualcomm on base price for royalties and what was considered FRAND given some of the patents were incorporated into the communication protocol standards.

Netflix once had an advantage, mostly tech and UI based, as well as network effects. I feel all of it has subsided. They did well to weather the studios and networks pulling their content into their own services. While deciding to invest in original content early, they built a pretty decent library, but they're still way behind with other networks who have 50+ years of content.

While their focus now to cover the breadth of programming like cable as opposed to quality content, means they will likely stay where they are (lose selective subs, and gain cable subs) but just not as an emerging tech co. with new ideas that was once the N in FANG, but just as a legacy media network, while their consumers have a wealth of choices fighting for their time including social, gaming, real world events, etc.
They’re evoking the Vim vs. Emacs rivalry; like these stickers, another defunct 90’s meme.
I have a teammate who think Sindre is the worst person for releasing ESM only packages. He feels so screwed, so de-emapthizes with.

Personally I think it's well past time we make es2015 happen, whatever the pain. We are making it worse by having cjs still around. There's a couple notable holdouts (jest has struggled) but mostly it works.

Beyond the technics, I think it's interesting how weird & how hard it can be to have empathy for so many cases. I can empathize, but I often do it with great pity & sadness in my heart.

Incorrect assumption, look up the left pad fiasco [1]. Its importance is really a personal opinion; convince nearly always trumps security so if the NPM way allows you to increase sales by ~10% you'll see people continuing to do it.

Google is fairly principled though, all of the 3p code is internally vendored and supposed to be audited by the people pulling in that code/update.

> downloading Linux ISOs starts to look more and more attractive

Is that a veiled reference to piracy? If so, why not just say piracy?
I have not tested this, so I cannot recommend it one way or another, but I am taking notes and will test it in the future... Thanks a lot for the interest and the idea.
Pirating is seizing a ship for material goods. People get hurt or killed when this happens. And the economics of material goods are literally otherworldly from those of digital goods. (You can't download a car -- copying a car for practically free.)

Torrenting is just choosing the most convenient distribution mechanism for data that you own. You can buy DRM-free music, but not DRM-free shows or movies unless they're bound to physical media. The reasons why have to do with backdoor meetings and lobbying by the MPAA, and I don't care much about them. And Netflix expects me to own nothing and be happy while leasing tenuous network access to compressed streams of content by paying indefinitely. Cute.

I think it's funny they got us to implicitly condemn solving their greed-based distribution problem with a term as hyperbolic as "pirating" though. They want to remain in meatspace, where the old economic model makes sense -- scarcity, wear and tear, manufacturing costs per unit, so they try pretending we're all still there in cyberspace by guilt tripping us with meatspace vocabulary.
Oy, double T. It's "enshittification". And that's even the way Doctorow spelled it.

The root word is "shitty". Double T.

I've seen this a couple of times now without the double T, and it pains me.
I don't think they have SSID on most devices.
> Generics seemingly split the community. May be some libraries won’t get used because they picked the wrong side.

I haven't really observed that at all.

One thing that is going on is there hasn't been a massive disruption while everyone stops to rewrite the world in generics, and generics are not suddenly everywhere, which is what some people had predicted would happen. I think part of the reason is that in some cases another solution (closures or interfaces or whatever) can be a better fit, and the evolutionary approach to generics that Go took means you can use generics in conjunction with non-generic libraries or other pre-existing approaches without suffering from an ecosystem split.
Here here! There are 2 or 3 other goodies they lock behind their paywall which I think would be prudent from them to release so they stop ceeding ground/mindshare.

I was pretty much allowed to do whatever I wanted. Overall, I was punished only once in my teenage years (was told I had to skip a ski trip because I came home very drunk one night, at 15 or 16 yo). All in all I'd say I did pretty good, I'm already FIREd at 42 years old.

This irritates me (I know it's a silly thing to be irritated by). I'm far from a food nerd. I'm not a cook. I rely on following recipes to turn out decent dishes (I'm good at following recipes).

It would have been nice if someone had clued people like me in to their special definition of the word before now. I'd have saved a whole lot of time and frustration.

But now I'm presented with the other problem: when a recipe calls for caramelized onions, how am I supposed to know if they mean caramelized onions or "cook until translucent"?
> The idea that the world will isolate China on behalf of Washington

Countries are doing it because of economic coercion.

China has banned Australian products from import (in violation of WTO rules) because of its position on Taiwan, Quad, Chinese foreign investment etc. Similarly for Sweden.

Which is one reason why EU has not been keen on a comprehensive FTA with China.

To be honest, for the UK at least I've always thought it was because as an English speaking country we have no moat from American media. So we're way more susceptible to the propaganda pumped out by big corporations.

> To your point, the issues plaguing the US ( and indeed the world ) have not changed that much over the past four decades.

Inside the US, this sounds wrong both anecdotally and from the data. I'd argue the cost of "living" has gone up quite substantially. Since 1980 rent has risen 140% and incomes 20%[0].

Anecdotally, in the 1970s it was entirely possible to live in an acceptable city or suburb on part-time work, and you could have your own apartment on minimum wage. You might not have nice things but I know many people who spent their 20s very comfortably like this not worrying about how to afford living. (having a family on this budget was not feasible, but that's another thing)

Conversely today I don't know anyone making less than less than 40k/yr who is not constantly stressing about food costs and how they'll make rent.

I mean, barring legitimacy on 2023 doom-and-gloom rhetoric, those who grew up during the Cold War do have this generation beat when it comes to warmongery worries. Problem is, there was not nearly as much domestic disarray back then - and there was still a sense of unity.
