No, I think we need to stop contriving obviously skewed examples like Aldens vs Crocs. Boots vs shitty holey rubber sandals isn't a good comparison.

Maybe compare backpack, or suits, or something along those lines.
Thanks for the feature. We made the website with https://build.mmm.page/. It is the most fun wysiwyg builder I have used. Highly recommend it, bugs included.
It’s (mostly) just a US thing to measure in feet and inches, so most people don’t learn the shorthand for feet and inches.
It would get awkward when they find the US backoor built in to every server headed everywhere ... I guess technically outside the scope of the headline so you can just leave it out.

Self determination? I thought people of Crimea and Catalan enjoy the same rights. You seem to be comfortable for dual standard western policies here.
My time and attention is limited and I'd rather not spend it on the scribblings of someone whose intellectual work is only read because of its association with his more famous work sending letter bombs.
I've never worked on a localized project but Fluent's explanation for why they use identifiers makes a lot of sense to me. I didnt see anything in your blog post addressing their issues with English source identifiers.

https://github.com/projectfluent/fluent/wiki/Fluent-vs-gette...

> The most important difference between gettext and Fluent is the choice of a message identifier. Gettext approaches the problem by taking the source string (often English). While the choice seem simple, it has long standing consequences in form of two limitations that this choice imposes.

First of all, it means that any change to the source string invalidate all translations of the string. This severely increases the burden on the developers to never alter messages in the source language as it results in all translations having to be updated.

> Secondly, it makes it harder to introduce multiple messages with the same source string which should be translated differently ...

> Fluent establishes a social contract between the developer and localizers. The developer introduces a unique identifier and provides a set of variables such as number of unread emails or the name of the user, and localizers are using Fluent syntax features to construct the best possible translation for that identifier.
This seems useless. Sorting has 360k down to $7. Either make it hourly wage or yearly salary. Both in 1 is confusing.
CBV doesn't require you to do anything in particular other than implement retrieve/list/etc. methods on the GenericViewSet as needed, and get/post/etc. on GenericAPIView. You can use the convenience methods in Django and mixins, but as soon as you get beyond a simple case, they start to become a hindrance.

The only thing beyond that that I'd recommend is specifying a get_serializer_class method since it simplifies your boilerplate and plays well with drf-spectacular for generating your API documentation. I generally don't use ModelSerializer unless the logic is very simple, I've been meaning to write a blog post for a long while about avoiding it when your data model is split across two database tables.
This surely would stick with me. Wild story.
Care to link to a major equity exchange's product page and/or sec declaration that details exactly how this works (ie, criteria for getting "first dibs", what that actually means etc)?

Or are you talking about exchange hosting, where you get lower latency if you pay more to colocate?

Quality of output is at same level as GPT.
The biggest issues for us:

1. text-bison limited to 1024 output tokens.

2. Output format we ask for JSON. But it is not valid json many times (, after last element, missing } after element etc). We have to write our own parsing code in the end to work around these JSON format issues.
After a quick read of the article, it presents no new data, and is replete with innuendo pointing at the Wuhan lab, rather than any direct evidence.

Most importantly, the general reader should know that all labs researching viruses do research on dangerous viruses. After all there is no incentive to research benign viruses. So the fact that the Wuhan lab worked on coronaviruses is not in itself an indication of any ill-intent. Additionally, the closest relative to SARSCov2 that has been identified (RaTG13) was found in a cave in Mojiang county in Yunnan, over 1,000 km away, with no evidence that it was ever studied in the Wuhan lab. Further, genetic clocks show that RaTG13 and SARSCoV2 diverged almost 50 years ago.

The map presented upfront from is also misleading, the early cases clustered around the market not the lab [0]. Furthermore, several different isolates were found in the market, indicating that SARSCoV2 had been circulating before the epidemic took off.

[0] The Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market in Wuhan was the early epicenter of the COVID-19 pandemic. https://www.science.org/doi/10.1126/science.abp8715
How do you know whether it was too aggressive or not? They could have always revised their estimates when they did the calculation for how much each call costs as well as how much lost revenue they get from third party apps not showing ads. Sure, they could have given more than a month's notice but the bill comes due at some point. Based on the API call figures Apollo has posted and having worked on API products in the past, I can entirely see how $20 million a year is reasonable given how much Apollo is pulling from Reddit's servers.
> Your logic is: there has never been a not-for-profit large online community, therefore the value comes from the specific for-profit company that currently exists.

No, my logic is: there has never been a not-for-profit large online community, therefore the value comes from infrastructure, network effects, and brand recognition – and not from "the community" as commonly claimed. Once the infrastructure is in place (which requires immense upfront investment) and enough money is spent on promotion, the userbase will cross the critical threshold required for growth, and content will be generated as a result.

Just think about it: If it's really "the users" that bring all the value to the table, then why can't those users manage to organize into a community that's not run by greedy profiteers? Because the "running" is where the real difficulty, and thus the real source of value, is.
2 years ago is ancient for a feature that was supposed to be delivered in 2016?

This is one of their major selling points and part of their strategy with locations positioned on the highways between major cities, to the point that they even have jokey billboard ads along the lines of "Only 300 miles to Buc-ee's, you can hold it".
3rd party app developers are the freeloaders I would argue. They contribute no revenue to reddit, are exempt from displaying ads but incur OpEx costs. Some are as big as 1B reqs a month but act as though they are the victim. Not only that, instead of being a professional business partner, they go on their respective subreddit to complain about reddit management… on reddit. Kind of hilarious actually.
Even in Düsseldorf, building an entire new subway tunnel for several lines through downtown was about a billion euros. Hamburg's new Hafencity lime was in a similar price range, and the new U5 will be as well.

New York for some reason is spending 10× that.

Yes, I also remember reading that it's designed to be lightweight enough to run on a mobile device.
There was a follow-up Tweet that “explains” the problem:

https://twitter.com/JustJake/status/1667492928758095872

From the call with Google just now:

Them: "You exceeded the rate limit"

Us: "We did 5000/10min. The quota was approved at 18k/min"

Them: "That's not the rate limit"

Us: "What's the rate limit"

Them: "Not sure have to check with that team"

So, the quota is completely cosmetic...
At this point, Spez's behavior is so out of touch that I'm genuinely wondering if the stress of being a pre-IPO CEO is causing him to have a breakdown.
Well, yes, it's their platform. No one forces anyone to use it, if they don't like the terms they can go elsewhere.

Good for you. Reddit will not cease to exist.

People are comparing this to Digg, but Reddit is not changing at all, so the vast majority of users will stay and will continue to comment share and moderate subreddits for free/points.

People think they have any power whatsoever over “their” subreddits, I don’t know how they can think that Reddit won’t just lock their accounts and reopen the subreddits.

Don’t forget that Reddit can and already did close a bunch of subreddits that they didn’t like, so it’s their community, not yours.
This is another site that promises the same info: https://h1bdata.info/
Yep. About 1.7 MB of JavaScript (yeah, less across the wire) to do literally nothing interactive, and have a janky, ridiculously-scaled document where everything is the same shade of blue, links are not distinguished in any way, and a decorative image even collides with the text in one place. The whole thing should have been under 20KB of pure HTML, SVG and CSS.

Found a tracker in it that the usual uBlock Origin lists aren’t blocking, too: https://api.june.so/sdk/{page,track}.

Really doesn’t endear mmm.page to me.
People using Reddit essentially laid their eggs in someone else’s nest, on purpose and with intent to get value for zero investment.

Reddit offered in the free market and everyone chose. Those who didn’t choose Reddit are still out there not on Reddit… nothing was taken that wasn’t given by choice in the past.

You can’t moan and complain your way into owning Reddit, or it’s api or web services, etc.

Just take your invaluable content elsewhere.
If we want to get so nitpicky there are poor and isolated areas along the coasts too. And heartland areas outside of major cities are less able to sustain independent media. Modern institutions like the military shuffle people around to and from these less notable areas and many broad trends do not fit the simplistic narrative you're presenting (for instance, many rural areas have large immigrant populations who work in farms, meat-processing facilities, and similar).
Looks like they have just described Apple’s mixed reality distortion field in action.
Or force a US investor to buy it out.
Just another data point: walking to work takes 15 minutes for me. Same time by metro. Driving is 45-60 minutes.
His content is incredible. But prolific? He's posted three videos on his main channel in the past year.
Wow, this looks very impressive. Going to check it out. Is there any plan to support languages other than Swift? I’m assuming that has quite a few technical hurdles associated.
My x270 could pull about 20 hours on Linux when it was new (it did degrade a bit over time, as batteries do). I don't recall if I fiddled with any settings as this was five years ago and the laptop since died in an accident, but I don't think I did other than setting it to "power saving" instead of "balanced".

Before that I had a Dell XPS, which lasted about 7 hours IIRC, which was pretty good for the time.

My Acer could pull about 15 hours when new, but it is a fairly underwhelming Celeron CPU so that probably helps.

Maybe other systems are worse; I don't know, but overall things always seem to work well for me.
Perhaps this is what they were talking about: https://www.cvedetails.com/cve/CVE-2019-13640/

The dev recorded things. You can hear it for yourself. To me it's pretty clear that he's saying 'my API is loud in terms of API calls, it would be quiet if it went away' not 'I will go away quietly if you pay me hush money'
Sounds like they were following standard industry best practises.

Getting arrested for it is beyond lousy, as many other IT professionals will be doing the same things because they're industry standards. :(
I'm pretty sure nothing will happen either. People will use this as a moment to grieve and vent, management doesn't budge and things return to business as usual.
At last, we can construct physical monuments worthy of dril's genius. I think I will have to go for the Betsy Ross tweet.
Very interesting article on the history. I also first saw these high quality convenience stores in Japan, then after having stayed in Taiwan for a while for a short while thought that the whole worlds 7-11s are like the ones in Taiwan only to be sorely disappointed everywhere I go.

I don't know how the ones Korea are, but for me personally Taiwan seems to be the gold standard of convenience stores. Yes, the average food is a little bit better in Japan, but Taiwan being the Trade capital it used to be has settled with having the best of everywhere.

While in the Japanese ones you get everything Japanese in Taiwan you get the best of everywhere. Award winning chocolate from south America. The best sweet choices from Japan, Germany and elsewhere. The best isotonic drinks from Japan. The best lemonade from the south of Taiwan.
>calling a teacher's union a 'rent-seeking institution' is nonsense.

The evidence, an example of that which I provided, shows that they are.

May I ask if you or your relatives are in a union? If so it may be hard for you to be objective about this.

>As a libertarian you should be cheering for unions because they are the natural consequence of workers using their power in a free market to come together and negotiate as a block.

The unions that exist today are not operating in a free market. They leverage laws that mandate the employer - which in the case of the public sector, is the government - to engage in collective bargaining with them, to the exclusion of all other parties.

This provides them with an extreme barrier to competition from other workers, which in turn allows them to extract economic rent.
yeah it is wild that it is an unpopular opinion, perhaps my tone was a bit aggressive here towards Apple – but after all these years using their software – i detest most of it, and especially where they want to intervent my content for whatever cause.
Oh my god. Thanks!!
Doesn't make sense in regards to what lumb63 said. They're talking about society as a whole
For folks who don't care as much about iron-clad protection against mutability and side-effects, but want an elm-ish language that prioritizes functional code, derw is an interesting upcoming alternative.

It also targets good interop with typescript which is a big plus in current state of frontend ecosystem.

Protect them from what? Being blamed? What does that do except stoke fear? There are actual things to talk about like their aggressive naval horseshit why do we have to make them nefarious mind controllers or secret world saboteurs or whatever this lab leak hypothesis is supposed to prove.
And I think Reddit will be delighted to get rid of the "troublemakers".

the problem is that the "troublemakers" are the cool kids that make the site interesting, so it's a bit like gentrification kids out the cool folks that made the place interesting in a first bit

That's the very point I'm trying to make about this dubious article and all the people posting conspiracy theories here. How can we say they aren't trying to cause xenophobic feelings?
if that's the case then why are they going after 3rd party apps? If they are a niche among the user base then the benefit of killing them is hardly worth losing moderators who've been doing work for free.

Weimar Germany was mostly dominated (to the extent that it could've been, being such a mess and of course they never had an outright majority) by the socialist party. They hated the bolsheviks as much as(if not more) anyone, even going as far to having them shot and thrown into canals...

Arguably without Stalin and USSR supporting German communists most of their voters (~10% of the country) would've shifted to the Socialists party. Strengthening the Socialist-Liberal-Christian Democrat coalition and making it harder for far-right parties to take power.

UK had a socialist government between 1929 and 1931 and the Labor prime minister continued running the government until 1935 supported by the Conservatives after the Labour party split (and unlike today the Labour party considered themselves to be actual socialists). Socialists also had significant influence in the French republic as well.

> Herr Hitler looked like a respectable man because he was very much against socialism

Or rather the French and the British were much more preoccupied in dealing with their internal issues during the Great Depression to pay too much attention to what was happening in Germany.

Also The British prime minister at the time when first came to power and for the 4-5 years after that was a self-avowed socialist. Which would have made it a bit weird if what you're saying was right.

> In the case of Stalin, the issue was lending credibility to socialism

Why are you equating Bolshevism/Communism with Socialism? The bolsheviks overthrew a Socialist government to come to power after all and suppressed all socialist parties whenever and wherever they could.
I don’t see how that would work. A fraction of Reddit users use Apollo. A fraction of Apollo users pay Apollo. A fraction of those users would be open to also pay Reddit on top of that.

Why would the Apollo developer keep working on their app if this subset of users bring in $500/month at best?

I do agree however that it would have probably caused less trouble, because suddenly the users have to pay Reddit rather than the developers.
It's not for everyone, but FWiW the overwhelming majority of people I went to primary school with did exactly that, as had their families since they'd walked across the world to get there.

Why would you possibly assume reddit's leadership team isn't completely inept? I would need extremely strong evidence to think anything but.

reddit got lucky - right place, right time, and locked in a strong enough network effect to stay alive despite the best efforts of their leadership. Look at their atrocious UI. The clumsy desperate attempts to drive users to an app. The boneheaded copycat features that never quite work, or are just downright baffling.

In an alternate world a smaller team would have focused on site reliability, mod tools, and a small set of features that made sense. Use third party ad tools until, or if, you get a better homegrown solution. With this route reddit would have been profitable and probably good. Instead...
> infrastructure, network effects, and brand recognition

That's reasonable, but then you leap from there into giving credit to Reddit per se, instead of a Reddit-like company that would exist in Reddit's place if Reddit didn't exist. That's where we disagree. In Reddit's absence, another company would rise to do the same thing, therefore Reddit is providing little to no unique value to the world. The delta of the world with and without Reddit is close to zero. Hence no value.

> If it's really "the users" that bring all the value to the table, then why can't those users manage to organize into a community that's not run by greedy profiteers? Because the "running" is where the real difficulty, and thus the real source of value, is.

This is a conflation of necessary and sufficient conditions. Infrastructure, by itself, is a necessary but not sufficient condition. So are users. Either of these things in isolation have no value because neither of them are sufficient conditions.
Are you implying the lab shouldn't have existed at all? And/or future coronavirus labs shouldn't exist either?
I don’t get the “completely inept” or “valid, urgent reason” dilemma. The decisions Reddit leadership is making seem foreseeable / obvious, under the assumption that they own lots of Reddit stock and want an IPO.
Indeed it does happen https://www.cvedetails.com/vulnerability-list/vendor_id-26/p...
Seriously, why do we so often see mental illness as an excuse for simple evil? As far as I know in most non-authoritarian countries if a mentally ill person commits a crime the factor that decides if they get punishment, treatment, or both is not if they are mentally ill, but if they knew what they were doing at the time was wrong. The burden of proving that is on the defense and it's not easy to do so as it should be.

Someone could say, but his mental illness made him believe he has to kill those people for the good of humankind. Firstly, how do we truly know this as true? Perhaps he just loved the feeling of power it gave him so he came up with the justification. Being an intelligent man he came up with a convincing story.
What did I learn from OpenSnitch this summer?
imgur started as site to host and hotlink images published at reddit (they wanted to change it to be profitable, but entire point of Imgur was to enable "freeloading on Imgur's platform")

1. For people with only access to gpt3.5 API, does this still work?

2. Also does it work for repositories not hosted in github (ex: gitlab, bitbucket)?
So you (y’all) are focusing on some of his incidental points, not the conclusions/purpose of the manifesto. Makes sense! Thanks for taking the time to explain.

I was writing a whole thing about why I find looking for nuggets of wisdom in a work that you fundamentally find severely flawed is a waste of time, but I think it’s best dropped. “Did you find these critiques interesting” isn’t even something I could really convince somebody to change their mind on lol, given all the paragraphs in Hacker News
Honestly these stores add a layer of functionality to Japanese life (along with vending machines) that increases QoL much beyond reasonable expectation. They have become a bit of a meme, but it's one thing I really miss from my brief time living there.

They add affordable right-around-the-corner convenience to every situation, and that you would have to be much more wealthy in another country to expect.

Possibly, but duplication means weighing and that is important in unbalanced trainingsets and improves the results in practice.
