You may be joking, but the specifics insults there are indicative of a certain worldview. OP only used words that would come from a small percentage of the population and insults that wouldn't be relevant on most subreddits.

For example, these wouldn't be the insults you would here from anyone who qualifies as centrist or anything further right unless you are legitimately doing something wrong. There are also plenty of more conservative subreddits with awful mods too that would never use those insults. And if someone calls you a "transphobe" on some niche gardening subreddit, odds are you are doing something obnoxious and off topic that would upset the mods regardless of whether you are actually a transphobe.

Combine that all together and it starts to sound like OP is one of those people who is "running into assholes all day" without ever questioning whether that is any indication of their own behavior.
I hope they do support it. Edge as well. The more browsers/OSes that do the more demand there will be for Chrome to support it.
You are right - it is not better - not even close.

It is 2-4X WORSE on Liquid Piston's main advertised claim to fame "lightweight" "power/weight" than many available actual Wankel engines.

And the fact that this is still in development a decade+ later and 7-8 years after I was first vetting them for a hybrid multirotor drone company indicates that your suggestion is correct — they have many nagging and serious not-easily-solved problems.

If it was that expensive to host the API, they wouldn't have done it for over a decade. Reddit's popularity was at least partially built on the labor of 3rd party devs building mobile apps, moderation tools, useful bots, all types of stuff.

The bottom line is they'll happily pull the rug from under those 3rd party devs if it means they can pump their numbers for their IPO.
So it doesn’t matter if they have any good developers or not. By your logic they will never put out a good product. I guess you just found a way for Reddit to save a ton off payroll: let go of all senior developers and hire a bunch of cheap code monkeys as the result will be exactly the same.

> at this point there is nothing lacking or unable to run

Sure there is. You just haven't run into it yourself.

Faster, cooler and more power efficient hardware is great. I just don't think that it makes up for depending on a small team of volunteers to resolve all hardware issues in an ecosystem hostile to OSS, which might break at any point Apple decides to do so.

And the incompatibilities with ARM are not negligible. If all your software runs on it, great. If not, good luck depending on yet another translation layer.

I'm sticking with my slow, hot and power-hungry x86 machines with worse build quality for the foreseeable future. The new AMD mobile chips are certainly in the ballpark of what Apple silicon can do, so I won't be missing much.
I suppose what is the difference between trading in a laptop for an upgrade vs doing it yourself. The number of people willing and able to replace parts on their computers gotta be not that large.

The upgradability comes with trade offs, in reliability, price, size and weight.

I totally understand how in a perfect world i could just swap parts on my macbook, but if it makes it twice as thick and heavy, with shitty plastic panels everywhere I don’t think I want it all that much

I recently sat and thought about it, and I made the bold claim to a friend that the development of CUDA over the last 15 years.. just that activity, as a whole, is one of the largest use of human intelligence to ever be focused on any one thing in history. It's less people than worked on getting to the Moon, but if you measure the project in PhD-person-years it is probably off the charts. And if you include all the engineers and scientists that the program affects in the same way you would have included all the subcontractors for the Apollo program, it is way, way bigger.

I think the only reason CUDA isn't talked about like the monumentally important human milestone in technological development that it is, is that it is a pretty abstract thing that is difficult for laypeople to visualize.
Well, soon enough you will have to lock back, and go back.
I think this is unfortunately what is going happen in the next few years as more tech companies will price their APIs out of reach of small businesses :/

I was involved in a VC/incubator situation in LATAM some years ago. The conundrum then was that local talent could build all the tech apps/platforms/companies they wanted, but the local market could never be turned into customers/consumers. I'm guessing things have evolved since, but all the LATAM companies I encountered were building for the world-not-LATAM in terms of market.
"Hundreds" of fake users doesn't register in the grand scale of things.

Nobody would accuse a waitress of fraud for seeding the tip jar with a few dollars.
> Until then no idea why any dev would build just for the Apple ecosystem and not something agnostic.

The standard reason given is that iPhone users are much more valuable than Android users, in that they're a lot more likely to pay for things. If I'm creating a workout app with a fancy form-correction feature then I might well want to use Apple-platform things that make it quicker to develop, at the cost to me of only slightly restricting my actual market.
Assuming Apple’s product has all the deficiencies of failed products from the past will of course lead you to conclude that they will fail.

LNG carrier are volume limited, a freighter carrying bulk lithium ion batteries is mass limited.
Have you considered rethinking whether you misread a parent comment before accusing them of "reaching for the stupidest possible lie"? Let's re-read my comment:

> LNG is 20x the energy for a given volume than Lithium ion batteries. It's 50-60x as much energy for a given mass. The mass is the limiting factor for ocean transportation.

Liquid natural gas is less dense than water, so of course ocean transportation of it is not mass limited. Did it really no occur to you that I was referring to transportation of lithium batteries?

Anyway if you doubt that ocean transportation of lithium batteries is mass limited here's some math for you:

The biggest freighter has a volume capacity of 24K TEU and a mass capacity of 235,579 tonnes: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evergreen_A-class_container_...

TEU to volume conversion is inexact, but the most common 20' x 8' x 8'6" container is 33.2 cubic meters. This yields 33.2 * 24K = 796800 cubic meters for our Evergreen Ace.

The density of lithium ion batteries is more complicated. Sources say a 18650 battery weights 45g. The dimensions an 18650 are 18mm diameter base and 65mm length, yielding 16.54 cubic centimeters. So mass per cubic meter is 2720Kg, or 2.72 tonnes.

If we filled the Evergreen Ace with containers full of lithium ion batteries we'd have 2.72 tonnes per cubic meter * 796800 cubic meters would yield 2,167,296 tonnes versus our DWT of 235,579. We're almost an order of magnitude over weight if we fill out ship to the brim with batteries. Sure, there's nuances like packing efficiency (there's gaps between battery cells), but transportation of lithium ion batteries are overwhelmingly mass limited
It's part of his job, otherwise how can he do it?

In this case, from what I've seen, SEC can not even say what is "definietly illegal" like you say. So they can not be trusted

Ask HN: Your Experience Buying / Selling Used Macs
It seems to me that one of the nicer parts of having a mac is that it maintains some significant resale value a few years later

I'm making a spreadsheet of the cost/year of ownership of various macs, adjusted to consider resale value. Modelling it as though the computer were a subscription (eg, every x years, upgrade from mac<ofType> to newer mac<ofType>)

When you sell your macs/macbooks,
- how many years have you had it?
- what percent of the purchase price do you get?
- where do you sell it, and why?
- if you were to buy a used mac, where would you look?

Finally, what was your experience buying and selling used macs? Was it a major pain, or pretty smooth?
Thank goodness it's Tuesday!

Show HN: Arroyo – Write SQL on streaming data
Hey HN,

Arroyo is a modern, open-source stream processing engine, that lets anyone write complex queries on event streams just by writing SQL—windowing, aggregating, and joining events with sub-second latency.

Today data processing typically happens in batch data warehouses like BigQuery and Snowflake despite the fact that most of the data is coming in as streams. Data teams have to build complex orchestration systems to handle late-arriving data and job failures while trying to minimize latency. Stream processing offers an alternative approach, where the query is compiled into a streaming program that constantly updates as new data comes in, providing low-latency results as soon as the data is available.

I started the Arroyo project after spending the past five years building real-time platforms at Lyft and Splunk. I saw first hand how hard it is for users to build correct, reliable pipelines on top of existing systems like Flink and Spark Streaming, and how hard those pipelines are to operate for infra teams. I saw the need for a new system that would be easy enough for any data team to adopt, built on modern foundations and with the lessons of the past decade of research and industry development.

Arroyo works by taking SQL queries and compiling them into an optimized streaming dataflow program, a distributed DAG of computation with nodes that read from sources (like Kafka), perform stateful computations, and eventually write results to sinks. That state is consistently snapshotted using a variation of the Chandy-Lamport checkpointing algorithm for fault-tolerance and to enable fast rescaling and updates of the pipelines. The entire system is easy to self-host on Kubernetes and Nomad.

See it in action here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X1Nv0gQy9TA or follow the getting started guide (https://doc.arroyo.dev/getting-started) to run it locally.
