Thing is, high value users won't use a site that has no content. There's no there there any more without the userbase.
So what keeps Reddit from 'taking over' these subs? They probably already have auto moderation in some form, they could outsource manual moderation temporarily to some companies. Probably some people who contribute a lot will get angry and not post anymore, but the world is big. Until a new similar platform pops up, you will still find new contributors who might not care about this protest.
Why are you worried about tests failing on master? There are literally homeless people (your master's SaaS took their job!) outside your window!
I’m currently living this lifestyle for the past 5 years and I can say I’m exhausted from it.

It’s fun and rewarding but it can also be very annoying and atrocious quick. Airbnb support was always good to me at getting refunds but nothing else.

I’ve had all levels of hosts and such. You really need
To be ready to move with the punches and book farther ahead to get the best deals. Even a 2 week out reservation helps tons from filtering the last minute bad places that no one else wants.

Photography on Airbnb is everything. I’ve seen horrid pictures and the place was amazing and then it worked for me because of poor forecast I could book with the host cheaply, direct with no worry about guests booking.

I’ve also been fooled with amazing photos and “fantastic” reviews but the place was absolutely meh. The reviews on Airbnb are pretty worthless, people protect their rating at all cost and will not write bad things. I actually get better insight from new guests writing their first reviews vs “experienced” ones and fearfully I’ve just write reviews good and above - if I had a bad experience I won’t document it, the chilling effect is to strong and future hosts can see what reviews you leave.

I also use it as a host so that works a lot too - I’ve had many host say they had competing reservation requests and chose me because of more reviews and also being a “host.”

It is conflicting. But to reiterate it is exhausting - you do live out of a suitcase or two and that can be freeing or exhausting
Generating 10k+ sessions/month with programmatic SEO
I think its fair to say that trying to just rip up "structures" with no respect for the unconscious structural organization of people in society will naturally lead to a re-enforcement of previous hierarchies. But I'm slightly more radical than the author here, in claiming that there is a way to do it, but one that requires constant critique and constant shifting positions of power in the structures generated. It's quite neurotic to try and ceaselessly force structure into a social world to have some sort of stability--structures can never quite capture the full life of a social world and are always resisted for that reason.

>It's dangerous to talk

A bear charging at you is dangerous. Talking is not.
Some added context: MIDI 2.0 is still not that widely supported (in hosts, plugins, etc). It's also not present in 99% of currently on the market hardware synths and music controllers etc you can buy, and it's available in 0% of older hardware.

There's also MPE which adds some more expressive capabilities to existing MIDI hosts, plugins, and hardware, which has some (small still) adoption. MPE is an extension to MIDI 1.0 to add polyphonic expressivity, and a lot of companies have added it in an ad-hoc fashion (what it offers is within the bounds of MIDI 1.0 "extended" modes).

So, unless you're living in the cutting edge, MIDI 2.0 will not be of much use for modern music production for the next few years at least.
The issue is the third party apps were given a short amount of time to implement anything. Not enough time to make code changes, test, submit to app store for approval, release, etc.
My bigger wish - why do all the current social networks desperately want do die?
I think in the original the "that is widely used" was ambiguous, as to whether it refers to MIDI or MIDI 2.0.
Show HN: I wrote a book about Google Maps
Hello all,

After 8 years of developing with Google Maps, I'm publishing a handbook with carefully curated examples that demystify the GMaps JavaScript API and provide a solid foundation to build on.

Included are loads of tips & tricks, recommended tools, related resources, and useful links.

I would love to hear your feedback about it!

That is certainly a quibble. DCA is an artifact of retirement plans in Western countries, notably the United States.

It is certainly possible for the United States to dissolve in an asteroid impact, but those tail risk type events are not worth worrying about for the type of investor that is going to be thinking about dollar cost averaging.

The word “that” can refer to both original MIDI and the overhaul MIDI 2.0:

…the original MIDI protocol that is widely used by musicians.

This is a lazy comment, but just for completeness if others without context read the comments, I'll engage.

There have already been multiple analysis done that no 3rd party client can survive this given the new pricing for the API. $2 a month won't cut it.

There were many options Reddit had to improve its API, define a contract with API callers, etc. but, Reddit didn't do enough.
> If something loses me 20M$ per year and I have an option to buy it for 10M$ or kill it for 0$, I would choose the latter without much thinking.

Weren’t the $20M reddit claimed they are losing, missed opportunity costs? I.e. if Apollo users wouldn‘t use Apollo but the official app, they would make that amount of money off of them. So buying that amount of revenue for $10M sounds definitely reasonable to me. If what reddit claims would be truthful that would be a guaranteed 100% ROI.
It's very arrogant to take your understanding of the benefit of the truth, finding it lacking, and then assuming that this is same negligible benefit the truth will have for everyone else.
Can you show us "definition of done" for your process of closing a ticket? It looks like the "* [ ] update relevant documentation and list link to the documentation changeset" step is missed.

> Am I? Why would you not expect it to become cheaper overtime?

Ride sharing services are amenable to network affects. I.e. they tend to end in monopoly. And monopolies are not known for reducing costs for the customer. If some effective regulation could counter the network effect, i.e. make it easier and cheaper to switch between different sevices, then a monopoly could be avoided.
There's some really interesting stuff in his biography[1] about his experiences in war. Including this poem:

"""
Thy name is on our foes’ lips and on ours,
Strong in thy name we break and burn and slay.
And Thy priests tell us in our dying hours
That ’tis Thy will, and bid its victims pray.
From this dark pit of desolation
Full of black smoke and shattered limbs of men
Buried in the mud of their damnation
We curse Thee God, and swear that not again...

IMHO the federation aspect needs to be completely hidden from users unless they go out of their way to search for it. 99% of users don’t care about it, and offering instance options at signup must be killing conversion. As with all FOSS projects, it’s built by developers, for developers. The project badly needs a UX person streamline things.
reddit intentionally ignored commercialization requests from 3rd party apps, so the latter isn't an option.
> You meant Ukrainian terrorist attacks on civilians.

No, Ukraine, unlike Russia does its best to only target military installations and military outposts. But surely if you think this is terrorist action then you must think Russians are the biggest terrorist in the world.

> Reminds me of what Chechen terrorists were doing long ago. How much time until Ukrainians take hostage a maternity hospital[0] or a school[1] and demand to end the war?

Ah yes the rampant speculation from a deluded mind that has no basis in reality, I wouldn't expect much more from a Russian propagandist though.

> In fact, the leader of Ukrainian 'heroes', the neo-Nazi Azov battalion, promised to emulate Chechen tactics by attacking small cities inside Russia.[2]

He suggested it, he didn't promise to do it, a distinct difference.
I've lived in Airbnbs on and off for the past few years and am currently 6 months in a row. Quality is really a roll of the dice.

I use a travel router which solves most internet problems that are fixable.

The biggest issue for me is that it's so much work due to a a lot of small things. You have to constantly learn where the light switches are, how to master the shower, etc... I rarely even bother hooking my chrome cast to the TV anymore. These seem small but they steal your time and cause mild frustration. It's worse because you know it's coming again. I'm hoping to get a real apartment soon.
If you want a "glyph" you are trolling yourself because selecting and assembling glyphs in fonts is an additional layer of punishing complication on top of Unicode itself. Correct text rendering requires passing as much text as possible (even multiple lines) to a "black box" library that figures out layout, ligatures, glyph replacement etc.

If instead you want to find, as is more likely, whole grapheme clusters that can be treated as editing units (e.g. select/copy/delete "the character after the cursor", move the cursor N "characters", count "letters" in a string) you can go forward through your string, codepoint by codepoint, and decide depending on how those codepoints are classified where a "character" ends. Your ideas and requirements about the criteria might or might not match those of your libraries and of the Unicode standard itself.
But then they'd also have to obliterate Microsoft, Google, and who knows what else. This won't happen.
Personally, I've seen JPEG XL source code and I'd rather not have it in my production, unless it's rewritten or at least security audited / Google fuzz-tested. It's a bit of a mess (the last time I checked was 6 months ago)
So you are really a proponent of the post-truth society? It is better to believe a lie than to believe the same truth as right-wing people?
It will recover. Google has no other choice. Quite honestly, Google needs Reddit more than Reddit needs Google.

How about error handling? How about security?

Also, just peeking into the demo code, this is the first thing that caught my eye:

int id = requestCycle.getPathArguments().get(0).getValue(Integer.class);

This is something I would never write like this. get(0) is a big no-no, and this style also makes it hard to follow what's happening (what parameters / arguments there are), because the URL pattern is not next to this.

In comparison, an annotation next to the method declaration is far superior for readability.
I really think the whole "hallucination" thing is a terrible framing. All that gpt-4 does is spew out bullshit. Now, it applies a bunch of statistics to attempt to spew out believable bullshit and those statistics cause it to sometimes accidentally be correct. The base assumption with this should be that it's wrong, and so we should instead be framing it as like sometimes accidentally producing "actualities" or something.
You must be doing something very, very wrong.

Lets hear the special needs you have.

Playwright as a Chromium Extension
I wasn't thinking of DeepRL, but more on the more classical side of things with approximators other than neural NNs; but what you describe makes sense.
Given that it has been used succesfully for 30+ years, for all kinds of musical applications (aside from keyboards - including all kinds of exotic controllers), in huge productions (Hans Zimmer level huge), I can believe that it is not optimally (or even badly) designed, but I find the above statement needlessly hyberbolic.

It also (contrary to popular belief) supports far more finegrained granularity in parameters than 256 levels. Also MPE uses existing MIDI protocol (1.0) capabilities to map the polyphonic messages.
And now I think everyone is playing along and it whooshed over me...
Yikes! If they end up deprovisioning capacity and then some of those subreddits come back after 48h, the engineering teams are gonna be in for a rough couple of hours. I'm expecting that they have frozen autoscaling during this time.
The last one looks the creepiest - like a dystopian matrix glitch. Could be a cool effect to illustrate that.
The system is a little more nuanced than that because there is a "private review" portion of reviewing where you send a final message to the host specifically about the things they can improve about the space they are renting. The review isn't posted publicly. The host can also send an equivalent review to the guest.

This presents a more honor-based opportunity to leave a review that doesn't risk reputation but still gets a message across. It's honor-based because the host and guests have little pressure to improve from the reviews they receive privately. You don't always need to publicly humiliate people if you have an experience that isn't 100% perfect.
:(

maybe a nice Ghidra plugin, then?
> Allied powers occupied Germany which made sure that Germany won't simply use that money to re-arm for the next war. No control like that existed for Russia.

I mean; look at China? The US didn't need to occupy them. They're much worse than the Russians when you look at the organisation of their political class - trigger that sort of prosperity in Russia and we'd probably be seeing them just bunkered down waiting for Siberia to thaw through global warming. It'd certainly have allayed their fears about an eventual US attack if the US had been investing in their success instead of spending the last few decades preparing a military response.

> The idea that Russia would just like that lose its imperialism, if only we were nicer to them, is naive.

Russia literally dismantled their own empire in 1990. They aren't a top-10 power. They aren't going to reclaim the USSR; they can barely even reclaim the Donbass. Even without US interference they couldn't plausibly fight Poland or the Nordics without being ruined. Norway, population the size of a large city, has an economy within spitting distance of the economy of all of Russia!

People can pretend that Russia is an imperialist power, or driven by imperialist ambition, or whatever but that just casts doubt on all the other propaganda being thrown about. They can't plausibly enact any sort of imperialist vision.

> I don't think US is prolonging the war intentionally, but simply because of real constraints.

Well, think what you will but the US has done nothing to end the war. They could negotiate and end to all this without too much effort.
Ask HN: Why can't I comment on a link I just posted?
I just submitted a link on HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36289888) and wanted to provide a comment to explain a bit more about my submission, but I cannot comment on this, there is no form.

Why is that? Is my link pending review or moderation first?
> The Reddit staff/leadership can just decide to un-darken those subs and I'll "cross the picket lines". I suspect most are like me. That's the honest truth.

But it’s not about lurkers. Who is going to moderate those subs and prevent them from turning into a cesspool of spam and other less savory content? Reddit is dependent on literally tens of thousands of volunteer moderators. Un-darkening subreddits is surely going to piss them off even more. Without moderators they can close their doors as no advertiser is going to want to put their brand name next to an endless stream of spam and filth.
The problem with remote work is that it effectively solves more problems than it creates and this is a nightmare for those who live off speculation under the guise of "changing the world".

Now they have at risk the millionaire rents they charge their employees.

The worst part is that the decentralisation of talent puts their monopoly at risk.
Yes, they did. The reddit frontend on mobile is total garbage and actively user hostile.

Recently, they decided to move you to an absolute blank screen after login. Nothing is happening. You have to activate "desktop mode" before the page loads. Or you have to open a subreddit directly and click on the "Home" button afterwards. It's a joke.

The chat is a nightmare as well. Now you have the legacy and the new chat tabs. As a user, there is no notable difference between those two. I was able to pop out the chat in previous versions into an own window. They removed the button to do that, but it still appears sometimes.
Bean counter moment.

So, yes ~$2-3/user/month. The 3p app has to charge the user and then pay reddit. In the case of Apollo, it is to the tune of $20M a year. Apollo (the app) is developed by 1 person and so are most other 3p apps. Suddenly (with months notice) they are going to be billed millions.

Even after the user pays to use a 3p app, they cannot access any NSFW content through it.

This isn't a case of opportunity cost or lost revenue, reddit simply wants 3p apps gone.

Some possible solutions:

1) Desalinate sea water and pump it up to Lake Gatun.

2) Build catch basins next to each lock that can take half the water from each lock when the level is being lowered and can then give it back to the lock when the level is being raised.

3) Lower blocks of shipping containers that are heavier than the water they displace into a lock to occupy any space a ship does not occupy. Less water will then be needed to operate the lock.
I think this might be the end of cool die photos, now that all the cool stuff will be hidden in between two layers of wiring.

No. A motivated person can find all the comp sci and programming resources for free online. A good mentor can take the place of a professor, even better since professors usually don’t have industry experience or domain expertise.
To do it correctly, you decode the unicode. Then you apply whatever algorithms you need. Decide things like "are the diacritics on combined characters extra glyphs or not" and "how many characters is '﷽'" and "ௌௌௌௌௌௌௌௌௌௌௌௌௌௌௌௌௌௌௌௌௌௌௌ is technically a single glyph built around several character combinations but it's as long as a sentence". Actually, you don't want glyphs, you're probably interested in grapheme clusters.

You can try to be smart and measure the width of the rendered string, but then you find out that Mongolian is written top-to-bottom and that Zalgo allows for freaky combinations that break the line boundaries.

The real answer is the answer to the question "how do I deal with timezones in my code": you use a library by people who already put the effort in. Take something like ICU and let that deal with the text. If you need to ask the question, you're probably not a programmer with a minor in linguistics so letting the people who do know do the work makes everyone's lives a lot easier. Just make sure to read the documentation right.
