> Those complaining probably aren’t clicking the ads

The ONLY real reason people are complaining is because using the official app means seing ads.

All the arguments thrown around there are whataboutisms to try to justify the fact that they want to keep profiteering off of Reddit, that's it.
And she was getting some strange on the side with one of the other guys (Stan Getz).

Like other commentors, I always thought it was an allusion to zipping up some sort of storage or container, like a suitcase - zipping would still be useful even if it didn't compress, as it's a way to send a folder as a single file.
Let’s say you are driving down the street in a suburban neighborhood. You see a kid throw a ball into the street. You see from how his body moved that it is a lightweight ball and that it doesn’t require drastic (or any) measures to avoid. Or you see that it is a very heavy object and requires evasive maneuvers.

How exactly does a certain type of sensor help with this? Isn’t the problem entirely based on a software model of the world?
Related question:

As filters age, they change colour. Mine start white and turn dark grey when old.

However, I noticed that even the outlet side got darker. That made me wonder if a 'blocked' filter was actually allowing more small particulates through (for example perhaps because all the surface area that a bit of PM2.5 could electrolytically stick to has already been stuck to).

Does this sound plausible? Anyone got test results for small particulates of different materials and how the filter performs as it ages?
> What if it's correct? That this does actually make the world measurably and substantially better for the vast majority of inhabitants?

If it would actually make the world substantially better for the vast majority of the survivors, that doesn't imply that it's correct/ethical/okay.

This is why you have the power to turn off auto-updates on anything that has auto-updates. And you should exercise that power. That way you'll wake up to the news of a horrible change, not the reality of already being part of it.
RedReader is entirely open source and has accessibility features.
> You do investigation. You hire private investigators. You find courageous individuals who will blow the whistle and have the courage to do so publically.

Agreed! And it happens daily in at least the serious news media. Though I'm not sure where private investigators fit - the journalists are already professional investigators.

> "anonymous sources" ... have shows themselves completely worthless

Speaking of worthless, these claims seem pretty empty of value. Certainly many exceptionally valuable, true things have come from anonymous sources. Certainly there aren't always alternatives to them.
When people say "they don't know the difference between an A and a CNAME" they're not just talking about the basic definition of these concepts, which I agree with you is trivial.

But can you remember _which is which_? For instance, can a host have two A records? Can a host have two CNAMES? one of these might mess with mail delivery but the other is pretty common. Do you remember which is which?

DNS is an onion. At first it makes tons of sense. Then you learn a little bit and it makes less sense. Then you learn some more and it makes more sense. It is a bit tricky like that in a way that trips up lots of people. This speaks a little bit to your "levels of engineers," I think.

Yep. Bought one at one of the donation stores for $2. Made in USA, must be about double my age, and still works great. Amazed that a little fan like that can just keep spinning for that long.

I don't use "sites", I use the internet. I don't know, beforehand, which page I'll land on.

Some sites I do use out of necessity, because I follow the "content"/"community", and it happens to be there: YouTube, Facebook. It saddens me to no end a lot of groups of niche interests are only on Facebook, but if I don't want to end up talking to myself, I'm forced to use it.
Meh. Henry Ford got a medal from Hitler.
It is a matter of public record that the USGov has (a) assassinated American citizens abroad and (b) used "extraordinary rendition" hundreds if not thousands of times to lock people up on black sites for torture or worse with absolutely zero due process.

So no, it's definitely not my imagination.
I don’t believe so. But Apple is acting here as its own Xerox PARC trying to do the right thing.

They’ve done immense RnD into what is clearly (to me) the next computing platform. Now they have to release and see who figures out what to do with it exactly.

From memory no one knew that the biggest seller for GUI Macs would turn out to be desktop publishing. But when it happened they grabbed onto it.

Did anyone know what a personal computer would be used for either? Wozniak and Jobs were selling it to other enthusiasts. They didn’t think about spreadsheets and GUI or anything of what people would do with it exactly.

For a homelab use case, Zabbix is all you need. No grafana or ELK or Kibana orother overcomplicated solution, just a Zabbix instance. Simple TCP checks will cover most of your services, and there's web monitoring for special cases. Beyond that and CPU/RAM/Storage monitoring, there's nothing much else to do.
The worst localization bug I'm aware of is the default conversion of string to datetime in MS SQL Server.

If the session language is non-US, the ISO formatted string '1991-02-03' becomes 2rd March rather than 3rd Feb. yyyyMMdd works as expected.

I feel like the author really overstates how hard it is to make a new crate. Making a cargo.toml is simple and frankly you don’t do it so often as to be a burden.

Also, I didn't say tax breaks was the only reason. I also said commercial real estate prices. Even companies that don't own buildings need commercial real estate to stay up, either because their owners own some elsewhere, or because other business products are priced based on commercial real estate (one common example is corporate insurance treasuries often hold a lot of corporate real estate).

Having tried both, prop fans seem to beat centrifugal fans for the pressure drop across typical filters, and deliver more air per watt through a filter.

I suspect the pleated nature of the filter means that the static pressure drop isn't all that much. Haven't got a manometer to measure it though.

Reminds me of a wifi connected sharp air conditioner I bought. Great device all in all but at some point sharp decided they want more revenue, so now the app to control the expensive hardware I bought is displaying completely random banner ads

I can already imagine the thinking process to hit some arbitrary OKR to somehow increase revenue per user or some crap like that

Very frustrating
Nope, the singer is watching her walk down the sidewalk.
I still hope that Reddit will reverse its plans to charge money for its API, but with every passing piece of news like this it just feels less and less likely.

Not to mention the Play Store requires $25 per listed app - removing the "anti-spam" argument some are making.

The issue is paying $99 to even be allowed to think about making an app - plus the arbitrary requirement it must be built using a Mac.

Not all apps are commercial, and not all apps generate revenue, and not all apps are even on the App Store!

It's just an absurd requirement. Stockholm Syndrome, anyone?
I don't think fees are a viable argument anymore. At least not at face value. Last I looked, Google, Apple and Valve all take 30% cuts. I believe Nintendo does too. Unless there are some backroom sweet heart deals at least with the major studios.

> To complain about Unicode's complexity is to tilt at windmills.

A specification that people don't want to fully support is a bad specification;

Complaining about programs and tools that don't implement everything there is to Unicode is what is tilting at windmills.

At the end of the day, the programs win; they determine the functionality you have, not the specification.

A specification that people don't want to fully embrace is a bad specification.
The word you really needed to know was dictionary, not analgesic ;-)
Yeah, “don’t beat children” seems like a pretty good thing to have advanced as law.

Are you sure that your "fully adjustable" bulb is giving you the spectrum you think it is? Syonyk's posted a few RGB bulb reviews recently, and they tend to have a lot more blue light than you'd think. And if you use the RGB functions, they tend to get REALLY spiky instead of having a smooth emissions curve.

Im hacking some really dumb code this week & just tried to get StarCoder.cpp to give me some help, but I don't have any idea how to prompt it to work with code I already have.

I was really surprised that all the HuggingFace stuff needed an account. I didn't have any faith my data would stay local, I didn't understand what that was all for. Which sucks a bit because StarCoder seems to have a fairly friendly vscode extension, Im just too scared to use it.

I think maybe the trick is to just write code comments & ask for help in them? The vscode extension seems to just upload the file, wrapping everything before your cursor in {start token}/* your code here */{end token}.

I'm obviously a total newb here, but new a little tiny bit about LLM, how they are tokenizing systems. It still stuns me a bit seeing that these systems absolutely have the most minimal ability to capture context/hints from the rest of the project, from typescript definitions.
I see this all the time, why use multiple 1" thick filters to build a box, when you could just use 1x 4" filter. They are pleated, and the surface area should be equivalent. I documented my setup here before: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28395232

I've monitored two whole sites with Zabbix, dozens of servers at different companies, and everyone was very satisfied with it, myself included. Zabbix has extensive documentation, no one should be confused after reading the manual, all is explained there. I've fed it through zabbix_sender too, and while it can be a complicated setup, if you design it well it will seldomly need maintenance.

There's a tradeoff between the cost of excess solar/wind and the capacity factor of the electrolysers. You can get a handle on where the tradeoffs lie by looking at optimizations using historical weather data.

For Finland, the 2030 assumptions number (for "synthetic baseload" from renewables + storage) is just under their "EPR" number (which may be a bit optimistic, given your experience with an EPR). As I said, Finland is a tough case for renewables. The solution has > 400 MW each of solar and wind, and 110 MW of electrolysers (to provide 100 MW of synthetic baseload).

This isn't an idea - this is how it works everywhere except Apple.

You pay for the benefits of being listed in a curated app store - such as Play Store, Microsoft Store, Steam store, etc. The benefits include discovery, audience, services (billing, distribution), etc.

But you don't pay anything for the privilege of making an app. That's just absurd.
Tech Fantasies and Impostor Syndrome
When Is a Token Not a Security?
This is almost exactly backwards. "Controlled burns" are the workaround, not the solution. Timber land naturally burns regularly, but we started fighting those fires in the last century to protect the lumber industry. The problem then becomes, a few decades later, that you have a forest filled with dead branches and snags that would have burned, piecewise, over decades, but didn't. Now eventually something gets out of control and you have a fire anyway, except that now it's much (much) larger than it would have been naturally.

So the workaround becomes creating corridors of excess-fuel-free forest via "controlled burns". But that's not the fix! The problem was preexisting.
Are you sure you bought the air conditioner, or just a perpetual license to use it? Check the EULA, and you may find you have a license to cool.
That may true on Linux, but it is not the case on Apple platforms. On Darwin the base system is immutable and the dylibs embedded in an application bundle cannot be changed without invalidating the codesignature. In order to have this sort of issue occur you need to opt out of multiple security settings that are enabled by default (such as the hardened runtime and library validation) AND then be sloppy with your use of relative paths or dlopen() calls.
In reality ethanol is not used as a renewable fuel, although it is touted as such. It is simply used to increase the octane rating of gasoline. Without ethanol we'd need lead. Or some stuff that would be worse. Or, we'd put up with the lower octane rating, and so less efficient engines, and fewer mpg, and more CO2 emissions.
Oof. That's a "Please explain why we shouldn't make a criminal referral for prosecution of you, your company, and your associates under 18 USC § 1001" kind of letter.

Fairly off-topic, but I've been having the hardest time finding a Wireguard configuration guide that lets me connect two peers (my phone and an SBC at my house behind my router) to a VPS peer (with a public IP) in a way that routes all the traffic from my phone through the SBC (via WG) and out to the internet via my home fiber connection. All the blog posts and tutorials I've seen have traffic going out through the VPS peer, with little explanation of how all the firewall and iptables commands might change if I wanted a different configuration. Has anyone seen a configuration like that, or know which networking concepts I should keep searching for to go in the right direction?
Yup! It's a U-Net style convolutional neural network that runs on the spectrograms. There's a short 2 page abstract here: https://archives.ismir.net/ismir2019/latebreaking/000036.pdf and they cite this prior work as where they got the architecture from: https://arxiv.org/abs/1906.02618

You can ask that the mortgage not be sold, and continue to be serviced at your local bank. I don't know if this increases costs, though.
I disagree, especially for the desktop. I think there's great value in being able to update a shared library and get a fix in place for all applications, versus waiting for each application to update.
As a corollary, any private information that a publicly owned company has is for sale (since the company could be bought or merge), and any information any company has can be force-sold during bankruptcy proceedings.

Any time a company has physical access to your data, and says they will not sell it, they are lying (unless it is privately held, and never takes on debt / pays after delivery).

In particular, EULAs and other contracts do not protect your information in the above situations, since debt and shareholder obligations generally come before customer obligations, and the data is considered an asset.
I think it’s something else. If you sell me a thing and we both agree the price is fair, then I have no problem with that. It’s when you then try to exert ongoing control or establish an ongoing revenue stream from me that I have a problem with.
