The near term significance is that 2023 gives everyone a taste of what was supposed the new mean in 2050.
The bathtub curve is real, but it's hard to know where it is for a given model and production date. My personal experience is that hard drives often continue working past their warranty date, so I'd guess the other end of the bathtub is closer to ten years than five. I've run server fleets with a few thousand drives, and didn't find the other end of the curve because five year old drives are both out of warranty and relatively low capacity; we would retire systems with old drives because a new system would have much more capacity, rather than because the drives were old, but we still didn't run too many old drives.

> Also drives can start building up bad sectors that you cannot write to, but may be able to read data from.

Bad sectors are a pre-failure indicator. It's totally reasonable to stop using drives when they collect enough bad sectors. My threshold is 10 for drives you don't regularly monitor and can't easily replace, and 100 for drives with automated monitoring and simple replacement procedures.

I wasn't ever able to figure out reliable pre-failure indicators for ssds. In my experience they work nearly perfectly, until they disappear, never to respond to commands again. Thankfully, at a much lower rate of failure (per drive) than mechanical disks.
Does Coke Zero or Pepsi Black taste any better to you? I don't like diet coke or diet pepsi, but I do like the newer coke zero.

I agree matching a refresh rate to a video's frame rate is great. It makes the experience that much better and I have my video player change the refresh rate automatically every time, so good on Netflix for exploring this.

However, this wouldn't bring me back to Netflix. In large part I cancelled Netflix because they lowered the bitrate so much I got sick of seeing muddy blurred detail and macroblocks, especially in darker shades.

Quality of the image is more important than refresh rate matching.
I thought it was the Chrysler New Yorker that used "door is ajar"?

Yes, why do you not? Or why do you need it so bad? You can do whatever you were going to do anyway.
If you can, start to lay off all sweets. Your taste will change, but you need to be patient. The end result is less desire for sweets. Totally worth it.

Pea protein with no flavor takes some getting used to but is quite healthy and filling. You can mix with some sugar free almond milk to help the taste.

Overall my suggestion is to start viewing food as fuel. Of course you should enjoy some meals but don’t allow yourself to be picky or give into cravings.

Again, once your mind and body start to correlate eating good foods with feeling good you’ve got it made. You won’t even want to drink alcohol, eat sugar or seed oils. You’ll shutter at the thought because you know they will make you feel like crap.
Shouldn't moderators and active users (through posting, commenting, voting/curating, etc.) then at the very least get a discount? After all, those people are and have been compensating the platform for any lost ad income far beyond even that $2/mo.

Which I appreciate. My biggest worry about the doom of Reddit is that Reddit has replaced forums for compendiums of knowledge and solutions to problems and that will all go away.
Yeah. I spent quite a lot of time in SL - I had an art gallery where I showcased my RL photography and interacted with the visitors when online. My avatar was a sort of steampunk soviet artist manic pixie dream girl, just for the Lulz originally but eventually I really liked it.

I had zero interest in interacting with brands. It was much more fun to go to a public space and sit there coding using the in-world dev tools - making something like a radar that sent alerts when people visited your parcel of a land, or a comedy UAV, and then explaining what you were doing to a journalist or psychology student or vampiress or predator or similar.

Except that posts like this should change your beliefs towards who the biggest privacy invader really is
The point of this ruling is that you can't use the parody protection for your own trademark. If you have a trademark of your own and include a parody of someone else's trademark on your items, then the parody test would apply. For example, if the dog toys had been coming in boxes that proeminently featured the toymakers' logo, then they could have probably applied the parody standard and not have to discuss customer confusion at all.
They were so accurate about many things… Including our beloved ChatGPT.
I still use Windows 7 + Firefox + third-party personal firewall (to control network activity on per-process level). Despite FUD from Microsoft trolls, I have not had any malware in the last 10 years.

If the last two versions of their OS are crap, then it makes sense to consider previous versions IMO.
This is not remotely democratic without discovery. E.g. if you start an alt, the original would need to be force to display the alt as an alternative. Otherwise it's too easy to control the narrative and prevent anyone from even finding out about the alternative. Today, the primary sub generally actively bans any mention of alternatives. Also the most obviously named forum will attract the new users simply because of the name.
Hehe, that specific case is probably something that most people run into at least once. I've seen several cases of it in production too, where someone refactored something years in the past and accidentally disabled the cache without anyone noticing.

How do they know what they want?
Oh I completely agree this would be the most stupid thing they could do. I wrote it because this is something I can picture happening at some point (I do expect the protest to multiply), you say they don't own the community but I'm pretty sure they think they can control it.
I remember this too.

Honestly I should go back and thank the mod/poster because that little splash of cold water prepared me for everything that has come after that. I think about it every now then when I run into the newer variations of that theme.
Ask HN: Code signing certificates, and Stripe Atlas
Has anyone gotten their Stripe Atlas formed LLC verified by companies that provide EV certs for Code Signing?

I've made several attempts, but they're asking for things like phone bills in the name of my company, but since we don't have physical offices, I'm unable to provide that. How did you proceed?
> According to the CEO, Reddit is losing money. It won't survive long-term if that doesn't change. If people care about reddit and its community, it seems like that's what they should be thinking about.

You are correct. There are two ways to solve this. One is reducing expenses. How many paid employess would a site like reddit need? I would be surprised if that number was more than 50-100, and not surprsed if that number in reality is much higher.

Second is increasing revenue. Increasing the price for the API is probbly a wrong move as API increases distribution which is what you want. You do not want AI companies scraping and reusing content for model training for free, so you make separate terms for that.

Instead, you try with paid Reddit plans. Would be nice for users to own their piece of reddit and pay for their favorite scoial platform with some perks included (freemium). Also it does make sense for subreddits to pay a fee proportional to their membership after some threshold of say 1,000 users. After all, owning a huge subreddit give a lot of power in many ways. If I had a subreddit with 1,000,000 users I think I would pay $100-$1000/month to have that kind of distribution power.
Big Tech is still US centric, so it's not surprising a tech focused site would have US focused stories.

Having said that a lot of the stuff isn't US centric, like recent stories being "Linux Foundation Announces Collaboration for 'Open Radio Access Network' Prototypes" or "Debian 12 'Bookworm' Released" or "OpenAI, DeepMind Will Open Up Models To UK Government"
Looks like someone's first action logging in was setting the password to something else. I've reset it back to "helloworld".
as the mods of Ask Historians have explained, and I have seen in the subreddits that I visits. Finding unpaid labor is much harder then finding paid labor, and many companies can not find paid labor right now....

Most of the subreddits were already having moderator staffing issues and were very much understaffed with no one wanting to do it...

Couple that with the shit show moderating the site will be with only official tools and I think this idea that the admins can just boot all the mods and snap their fingers with all news mods is a bit fantastical

It’s crazy. I used Edge when it first switched to Chromium because it was a nice, clean Chrome alternative with working sync. Today it’s obvious Microsoft can’t be trusted.

This “feature” is insane and it makes me concerned about what Windows might be doing in the background.
Just to back this up, here is the SCOTUSblog page for this case which does a much better job of summarizing the actions in this case than the Reuters article: https://www.scotusblog.com/case-files/cases/jack-daniels-pro...

For those following along at home, when a case is vacated and remanded per the Judgment, what happens from there in a particular case is for the lower courts—SCOTUS opinion in-hand—to decide, if the parties choose not to settle anyway.

EDIT: Also, just as a background again for those following along at home, here is an explanation of the Rogers Test: https://moellerip.com/the-moeller-blog/the-rogers-test-free-...

> Thus was born the Rogers Test, which may only be applied to non-commercial marks, which determines that the title of an artistic work is protected under free speech from the Lanham Act when a) the title of the work has some artistic relevance to the underlying work and b) that the title is not explicitly misleading as to the source of the content of the work.
The fact that commercial airlines don't have many crashes is due to a completely vertical integrated system beyond just the analysis of crashes. Are you saying we need to integrate virology globally?? I'm for that, sure. General aviation is 3x as dangerous as motorcycles.
Not even break EULA, just download from Microsoft and install without activating.
To be fair, this particular deviation we are seeing in the ocean temps was knowingly and intentionally caused by changing the environmental regulations around sulfur content.

So it’s a weird state to be in where the environmentalists are pushing dramatic warming policies.
>This drives me crazy. You don't know anything about this guy.

Doesn't have to. With some empathy you can often tell. Also don't need to know anything to know that 70+ year olds don't work at some menial service industry job in countries where they can afford to retire.

>He loves driving the bus, he does this to stay busy, he's retired but enjoys having a purpose and talking to people (such as myself). My point is you have absolutely no idea why anyone does anything, unless you ask them.

That would tell you even less in many cases. I wouldn't necessarily believe the story a stranger would present for their circumstances either. Part of it will probably be saving safe, or making himself look better than "70-something that can't afford to retire and is forced to drive around".

The fact is, loving it or not, he probably works because he 100% needs the money. So a health incident, or some emergency (like his house needing repairs, or a rent hike) could wipe him out.
In practice it has been free for home users for many years. I assume the only reason they still keep up the facade that Windows costs money is so they can sell it to OEMs and volume licenses to businesses, which still makes them big bucks.

BUT THE INTERNET IS SUPPOSE TO ROUTE AROUND TTHIS STUFF.

Remember when crypto promised a decentralized utopia of distributed systems that any interference wouldnt work, but slowly but surely it all congregated into a couple of oligarchical companies?

Surely by now the technology of the internet has matured enough that these conglomerates are going to do the same but with a bit less fraud involved.
Here’s a better explanation:

There's literally nothing a "bottom-up" approach will do to effectuate any serious change on the climate. The climate is a dynamic system, and "climate change" is a tautology. At which point, ever, is any "climate" in a static state?

Never, because systems are dynamic, and it's chaotic. Now, if anyone (the State powers and corporate interests) actually WANT to "solve" this "problem," it's, uh, very very clear where to start. Nuclear.

But like many other scissor issues, it will continue to be used as a lever to slice apart groups so's they can fight each other.

When was the last time you asked yourself "What made and or makes me confident in my belief that this is actually a crisis? Why?"

Which papers and statistical analyses have you written? Are you "trusting the science?" Are you versed enough to truly understand how we'd even be able to measure this? Or is it just esoteric enough that it can be used as an engine of disruption, corruption, etc...

I was refused a mortgage because of my student loan payments. The articles point is not that having a student loan ruins your life, it is that it makes it harder to do things like access housing (true) and that that means education is for many a net negative for their other all wealth (true for at least some people).

It's oversold, but it's still true when you get past the oversell...

> Honestly don't really care. Use something for as long as it's free and when they start monetizing it move on to next free thing.

As a person who grew up on the internet, went from AIM to usenet/forums and stopped this entirely in my late teens/early 20s, when do you give this up?

Despite being a millennial, at the very core ages mind you, I missed social media entirely because of how predictable this all was (the only thing they could monetize was your data, if you grew up in the early internet/chaning why would anyone willingly give this up?) so my question is: why bother?

Platform hopping is a thing for people with more time on their hands than anything else, migrating platforms seems to me like something that is something that would fall out of favour after your late 20s, when you're more likely to bother pretending to be something you're not on the internet which just leaves having endless rants with bots for engagement in your 30+ for fake internet points, which is incredibly sad... so what's the point?

Personally speaking, I just keep a close circle of friends who I speak with via Signal or Telegram if we cannot meet in person (most live on other continents) or can't do PgP encrypted email.

I have held highly social positions most of my career in and outside of tech, and I just cannot grasp why anyone would want to do use their free time on these platforms to interact with people; let alone be willingly be used as a pawn for big data based organizations, including nation states and their respective intelligence agencies.

> I honestly have no idea why you believe that the members of your government are more fair/just/whatever than anyone else, including Musk. They're not, and that's why they should have limited power.

I'll just dip out of this conversation right here. We have a fundamentally different view of how society is built up, functions and should work.

> Your views may not be uncommon, but they're certainly not universal, and even if they were, that wouldn't make them correct, or even well thought out.

Touche.
The vast majority of SCOTUS rulings are narrow and largely irrelevant. They also usually attract little attention.

The cases where SCOTUS attracts the most attention are the ones where fairly broad decisions are made, or at least hinted at.

The public is usually wrong in their understanding of it -- as non-experts practically always are. Nonetheless, SCOTUS does make, several times a year, decisions that have a direct bearing on people's lives. They may not understand the nuances of the decision but they know when their rights have expanded or collapsed.

Such decisions are usually issued at the end of June. Expect there to be several significant and not-at-all-narrow decisions very soon.
If you rent in the UK, you experience a form of poverty that has been unknown in continental Europe since the 60s. Regular evictions and rent hikes, pest infestations, mould, damp, etc…

You would fall under the definition of a homeless person in a more serious country.
I wish I was better at recording what I've done at work, uni, private. Just for my own sake.

Some screenshots, notes etc of projects I've been part of. Cool to look back and reminisce about what I've done over about 20 years of programming. Most of the early stuff is lost or forgotten.

But the few things I can find from the early days I'm quite happy to rediscover. Even if it's just a page full of construction gifs and marquee tags I made as a teenager.
Its very different. Its as if BBC ran article about saving whales by using the new apple vision pro ski googles and why arent more people doing it?!?11
Niche hobbies are not that easy to find local groups for.
Having just experienced a startup that attempted to do what you suggest, I will say that in this case, it did not work. First of all, there is so much more institutional knowledge to document than just installing something. Second of all, the first step in automating something complex is to document what it is to document.

If there is no documentation for the system architecture or how to solve common problems, everyone on the team wastes cycles solving problems that others already have, and doing it in different ways, so the codebase becomes an inconsistent pile.

Documentation is truly a force multiplier. It allows an entire team to learn from the experience of a single person, and that person can help the others passively and asynchronously.
the specific probability was irrelevant
> Jehovah's Witnesses do, are they a hate group? Environmentalists? Libertarians? Socialist organizations?

Affirming the Consequent fallacy.

I'm saying "If A then B", at no point have I claimed "If B therefore A".

Hate Groups spread themselves across the internet and real life. (IE: If Hategroup, then spread). At no point I (or the article) claimed "If spreading therefore Hategroup".

----------------

If some group of KKK members meet up in some basement secretly and don't plan on spreading themselves, then I'm basically cool with them. I don't like their views but whatever, I know I can't convince them or otherwise change their viewpoints.

But if they're an advocacy group and try to grow, then yes I'm much more concerned about it.
What we have already done is enough to keep the momentum of global warming going the next centuries. That's a very difficult political reality, it is a great challenge. How can we deal with politics and everything else when the facts look like this?

When the best we can do is to "not make it worse", then it's very hard for people to see the benefits of the changes we have to make.
Can't prove it's not aliens.
Brave has much worse issues than this. The link hijacking incident alone was reason enough never to trust them again. I'm convinced the whole point is selling snake oil to semi-privacy-conscious people. I even heard an FM radio host advertising Brave, if that says anything.

They are trying to replicate the assault on your taste buds that is sugar soda. They've gotten pretty good at it.

The problem is that the levels of sweetness, acidity, salinity, carbonation etc. in diet soda have become normalized. People give these dessert drinks to children, and drink it like it's water.

You know how overpoweringly strong some chocolate mousse can be? The kind where you can't finish a tiny slice of cake because more than a tiny sliver on your fork is too rich? Or how some foreign cuisines can be so potently dosed with curry or pepper that you can't taste any other flavors in the dish? Imagine replacing white bread throughout your diet with that chocolate cake. Or the punch of salt and pepper on an egg with that level of curry.

Ask someone from 100 years ago to sweeten a glass of lemonade "to taste" and you'd get something so weak that a consumer of diet soda would mock it like the meme "hint of hint of lime" or "transported on a truck near strawberries" flavors of LaCroix.

Yes it's better that they drink diet than regular soda. No, it's not good to normalize that flavor. I think human appetites are just not set up to handle some stimuli that previous levels of foraging or farming, chemistry, and distribution systems could not create.

No, you are wrong here. Maybe it's semantics or whatever but a rights owner can impose restrictions based on conditions.
