"Early to bed, early to rise, work like hell and advertise." - Ted Turner
A stop is double the amount of light. Useful for equivalence across different ways of changing exposure. So I halve my shutter speed I’ve lost a stop. But I increase my aperture from 4 to 2.8 I’ve gained that stop back. Or I double the sensitivity of my film or sensor (eg. iso 400 to 800).

So yes, in terms of data if using linear gamma exactly equivalent to bits. This is why log gamma curves are used to store for eg 16 stops of light info in 12 bit format
Was there one listed? As of this moment it says there are none.

Thanks for taking the time to reply. I've thought about what you wrote, and came to a realization that the answer to the question:

> What would it take for you to find walking interesting?

Is... no longer feeling like everything is slipping away or collapsing around me; no longer being stuck treading water. It's more of a therapy problem than HN-on-exercising problem.

I never particularly cared for nature, and still don't - except at the biomolecular level, where life fuels my dream/curiosity of functional nanotech. But this is separate to enjoying a walk down the park, or a hike with friends, which I realize I don't mostly because of the internal stress about not doing something better with that time. The few moments I take the plunge or get forced into a situation where I can't do anything but enjoy the time outside, after initial anguish they become relaxing. But I can't make myself engage in such things on my own, not without having some convincing excuse for this helping to get me out of my various predicaments.

> There are definitely cases in history where wrongs made rights, two or more.

I can quote quite a few cases from history where this kind of thinking has led to the worst kind of atrocities. Especially when one side wants to satisfy a resentment that has been built up over decades or centuries.

Including virtually every major case of genocide from the 20th century that I can think of.

> Some sort of moral balance has to be achieved before two forces can move forward. It will feel reasonable to both sides when it happens.

While, I can think of cases where this would apply when the restoration of balance happens directly after the offense (such as actions taken against Germany and Japan from 1944-1950).

However I wouldn't be able to come up with a single example of such "restoration of balance" successfully happening 100+ years after the initial offense in a way that was seen as reasonable by both sides after.

Would the relationship between Germany and Israel be restored if Israel nuked Berlin, killing 5 million people?

Maybe you can provide your examples?
Mumble was the best free voice communications app and briefly took over after Teamspeak fell out of popularity.

Discord was really the best place to hang out with your friends outside of games. Social media was too distant and Steam friends didnt do enough. The old IRC chatroom / Discord format with voice comms and screen sharing is THE way to relate to friends online now.
Exactly. QR code scanning abilities of new smartphones has gotten so incredibly quick at scanning the code. I barely point my iPhone 14 Pro's camera at the code and it already scans and displays the information. Even with the motion blur on the camera as I'm pointing the phone at the code.

I think the focus should be more on the ability to interpret damaged codes via ML capabilities as most QR codes are outdoors.

> consisting of the type of omega-6 that in any but the most miniscule amounts are harmful in a number of ways, and a poor source of metabolic energy to boot.

I have been hearing this for years, but I have never found a reputable scientific source for this claim about omega-6 and omega-3. All I can find are sketchy websites trying to sell something.
It's time to bring back Olestra. You heard it here first.
Works great for applications where you spend most of the time waiting for a database.

The dynamic type system makes it easier to write testable code with less abstraction overhead.

Faster to train up junior devs.

That said, you * must * set up the codebase with appropriate guard rails or bad things can happen.

I'm an Atheist but: if people actually believed in God they would be kind and generous, turn the other cheek and be humble about it.

Those who do behave like this are obviously not the ones we hear the most noise from.

What we're dealing with is some other phenomenon which has labeled itself as "Religious" but doesn't believe in the core philosophy. People can see the value of being part of the "religion club" or "religion tribe" and realise straight away that they only have to pay lip-service to its values or that they can argue their way from the values to what they want to do with a bit of sophistry.

Hence the Spanish Inqisition, Cusades, Holy Wars, Terrorism, Subjugation of native populations, religious racists and so on.
What a weird site and product. Why is text selection broken on what should be such a simple page? Why does the cookie banner say "we partner with Google", that's a weird way of describing using GA. Why would a developer link to their Softpedia page when they have their own download, mirrors like that seem to have been unnecessary for a decade or more. The copy is all just a bit weird, way too much "personality", and not in a charming or endearing way.

As for the actual product, it's not really a combination of features that I could see wanting as a developer. For installing system software... perhaps... but I don't tend to get that from PyPI or NPM, and in those cases I'd need to know it's not going to mess up the development environments for those ecosystems, and there's nothing of that mentioned on the page.

This strikes me as a labour of love from an individual that has received or taken in little to no feedback throughout the process – another piece of software that comes to mind for being in a similar position is Calibre, although in that case it seems to be strong resistance to feedback rather than lack of it.

This sort of development process can produce great technical achievements, but in my experience, rarely results in good products.

I assume CSS colors are defined for an sRGB color space and the iPhone displays are calibrated, so they show a smaller color range than they could. OLED is able to go well beyond sRGB.

Bytes does imply a level of precision, however, which affects the mathematical meaning. Perhaps there’s a metric that captures both.
> I am sure you are not genuinely claiming that it's impossible for them to be influenced by PR firms or external marketing spend? That you sincerely believe they are never influenced by external marketing of people? How might you suppose they find people to write profiles on? I personally know that it isn't chance.

"PR people pitch profiles to writers" is very different from...oh, what did you write? "From everything I personally know about the media, articles like that are usually paid for..."

The former is normal journalism. The latter is an ethical breach. So, yes, let's talk about tone for a moment: in your post, you accused multiple people of ethical or legal breaches, on the basis of, oh...your feelings?

Very respectful of you! Yes, my "tone" is direct. But I didn't accuse you of anything unethical, did I?

> I do use my real name for whatever it's worth, I have absolutely no problem wearing these statements on my sleeve

Hahah, OK then.

> I'm really happy you took the the time to respond to me though

Oh, but I did. As far as I can tell, you made one, and only one, technical claim: that Signal's reproducible builds aren't useful because they don't cover the NDK code. I asked you, twice now,

"As I said, in which codebase does the key verification and encryption live--is it in the native code, or in the Java code? I suspect you don't know, or you don't know why that matters."

You have twice now failed to reply to that. Care to try for a third time?

Edit: Seems like Signal's reproducible builds now do cover native code, though I haven't tried this myself: https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Android/blob/main/reprod....

So, like...what was your point again? Other than that you don't know what you're talking about?

I'm on Beehaw, and I like the way the defederation was handled. Here's the latest from them: https://beehaw.org/post/594843 You can see some positive comments from users about the change and a transparent road map for re-federating.

To put it another way, would you want to join an instance that isn't trying (or is failing to) contain harassment and other forms of bad actors? That's the challenge the de-fed is addressing: https://beehaw.org/post/567170
I used to do this with shoes as well because if they're worn, they fit well. They've adapted to your feet (or your feet to them?). Whereas with new shoes, you still have to make them fit well.
Videos of people being killed do not belong on HN. No matter why they are being killed.
I'm not sure that this is the reason, could be totally unrelated. Just a theory. Also, check the web socket traffic to see more info.
Yeah you don't even have to get silly before you reach impossible.

One client's compliance jobsworth demanded a tour of our datacentre (AWS) to inspect physical security for low grade employee PII (email, name). I was younger and poorer then so bent over backwards to still get told "er, no thank you" from Amazon.

Client's security weren't happy with third party security certifications (of which AWS has most) so they reported up that we were likely hiding something devious. I think they'd had some sort of physical breach in the past but it just makes using an external service supplier untenable if you're going to treat security like it's 1970. I think we still got that contract but it took high-level meetings to ELI5 modern infrastructure's features and limitations.

We've had others rock up at third sales meetings (pretty advanced) saying they now "need" source and data design before they sign. One asked me to get a criminal record check. To reiterate, we're storing light employee data and everybody knows and understands that, but some people just seem to treat all data exchange as nuclear waste.
I suspect it will transform your adoption rate.
That's terrible, so sorry
There is something to be said about being obliviously spoiled, privileged or entitled, and also trying not being this way when you come into money.

When I joined my second job in tech, it was a massive bump in almost every way, and immediately I noticed the people around me were drastically different than the colleagues I had in the previous place, a frivolous tiny start up. The new people had almost no appreciation for money; they moved about like nothing could really go wrong; and while they weren't mean, they were somewhat spoiled and detached from reality.

I remember thinking to myself that no matter how much I make, I don't want to be like them in terms of character.

I know people who were born into wealthy families and hearing their silly complaints about how some miniature detail is not 100% in their otherwise perfect and seemingly challenge-free lives was almost physically painful.

However, it made me realize something too. Being happy and having substance does not directly correlate to how much money you have. Evidently, a lot of very rich people aren't particularly happy, and in this article, the author also found no meaning anywhere until they lost their job.

It's the ability to appreciate whatever you have, your assets, your health, and strive to be a better person, have some goals to aspire to. When I catch myself getting upset about something completely meaningless, I try to remember this.
As the term "creole" is used in linguistics, it means a language that: a) started as a contact language, and b) has become the mother tongue of a group. So, I think you might be right, because Spanglish originated as a speech among English-Spanish bilinguals rather than as a contact language between English and Spanish communities. If Spanglish became the mother tongue of a group who couldn't speak Spanish or English, then, well...I'm not sure.
They also did it with two people talking to each other over screens in two separate mri machines.
That only works as long as you're the sole developer working on a project. When enough programmers work on a project, each using their preferred subset of C++, the whole language ends up being used (including C). Refusing to learn features beyond one's preferred subset usually isn't a tenable position.
Airline barcodes aren't QR codes. They are Aztec codes or PDF417 codes, and software for reading them is generally less robust and less smart because less investment has gone into clever ways to align the codes quickly. The codes themselves also have less good alignment markers, especially for dealing with lens distortion.
I imagine this will only work (and only index) threads. So the context can be gathered from the thread title/body and underlying messages reflect the discussion.

Some communities I'm in have #support channels which only support threads. So you create a thread, add a title and a body message and people can reply to your thread by clicking on it. There's no way to post individual messages; only comments in threads.

This solves your context problem. Still not sure if this is the right direction we want to go in. This just proves to me that Discord is not right tool for the problem at hand.
Is seven times brighter in terms of light output or perceived brightness?
It makes regular white look dim/dull so adverts programmed to take advantage of the superwhite will attract more attention.
good point. But HN should do better than that
It’s male mice only.
There were a lot of neurodivergent and highly functional people who used to mask their behavior with much mental effort. Now, one can be neurodivergent and not face (as much) discrimination. Nowadays, it’s generally more acceptable to be different, and there are more protections in place. Hence, people are more open about being neurodivergent.
SiFive's U74 (found in the VisionFive 2, Star64, PineTab-V, Milk-V Mars) does this. The conditional branch travels down pipe A, the following instruction down pipe B. If the conditional branch turns out to be taken then the instruction in pipe B is NOP'd rather than taking a branch mispredict.
Not a Flutter Dev, but have you tried 'flutter_rust_bridge' [0]. Seems provide some interop between flutter and rust and looks like a popular and active project. I'm native mobile dev and just curious about this kind of interop myself. If it's seamless then looks like good balance to do mobile front-end in flutter and mobile backend in rust.

We're tight on money with 2 young kids, and we buy our clothes second hand for very little money. They're cheap and look well, even branded stuff, but its for a fraction of the new price. With your kids it makes a lot of sense. When they get older, sure you get peer pressure but also clothes will last longer.
Sure. But it's magic enough for me if I don't have to create a ticket for adding existing database field to a DTO every single time.
We already have voice cloning with Eleven Labs and at least one other good one.

We are getting close to the point where you search for "clone person" and ten different websites come up that will make a video of your subject saying or doing whatever you ask for less than $200. You can already do some weak versions of this. Will probably be very good within a couple of years.

I assume its already illegal to use this to impersonate people. But that doesn't stop the technology from becoming popular. People will just add a checkbox to the page that says "I certify that I have permission..".

Within five years it will be so easy to do that people might not even take impersonation seriously anymore. We might need to start relying on some kind of cryptographic identifying signatures or something.

Oh.. I forgot.. we may almost be there already. https://m.twitch.tv/trumporbiden2024/home

Actually you could imagine say in five years or so the technology is so good that people use it to "be" in multiple places at once. They train an LLM with all of their work and ideas, another model that can simulate their face, speech generator, and hire it out.

Imagine CBS in 2033 decides that (since it's now an affiliate of Tencent) that they want to do a Chinese version of the late show actually featuring Stephen Colbert. Probably not even particularly hard at that point since it doesn't need to be live.
> This actually happened to China

That was an atrocity then, and if China is returning the favor, it's an atrocity now.

> especially when our own pharmaceuticals companies are doing so much of the damage.

There are probably quite a few people in those companies, or among corrupt doctors and politicians taking their bribes, that belong in prison.
The current main problem is that Qt often releases new modules under GPL and commercial only licenses. For example, the new Qt GRPC implementation and then it is all or nothing. Qt commercial would force us to essentially buy two licenses because we have a second app that acts as a third party dll loading app. These dlls often crash and thus we moved them into a dedicated app we could simply restart, but Qt license would force you two buy two licenses only because they talk to each other. So, no thank you Qt we will stick with LGPL for now, and move to something else in the future. See my blog post "Current Issues With The Qt Project - From The Outside Looking In" [1].

You think it matters where the key lives? Why do you think that?

Do you think it irrelevant that your phone auto-updates without consent (citation in TFA), do you think it irrelevant that the reproducible builds are -- not, you wouldn't ever need to touch the key to bypass signal. You want me to go into semantics but anyone with half a technical brain knows that RCE, logging, remote screen capture, or anything that can read memory will easily break security and doesn't have to be colocated with the code that actually does the encryption/decryption.

Also I made multiple technical claims:

* "third party clients are a no go"

* "third party networks are a no go"

* "Automatic updates are enabled and forced" (due to "move fast" ;))

* "The code on the server has been provably non-public"

* "Forces the use of a globally unique number that can often be tied to personal identity and will always be tied to physical location"

Care to answer these? ;)

EDIT: seems like Signal has a spotty relationship with reproducible builds but they are trying to keep it and even have an automated job for it, though it seems people are often unable to reproduce: https://community.signalusers.org/t/beta-feedback-for-the-up...
They'll auto-SPAM anything in the hopes that it gets them somewhere (like a forum) where they can do even more SPAMming, I think. A forum that I look after, even after lots of filtering, seems to get about 90% SPAMmers with made-up plausible big-name email-host addresses. (Requiring verification though those addresses stops those ones dead.)
Phones typically have glossy screens which can be a real problem if there are light sources in the sourrundings that can be reflected - including the scanner's own lights which, yes, should be turned off when scanning a phone barcode but this is not always the case in practice. Upping the brightness of the phone display itself mitigates this.
> It is possible that CIA or some other intelligence agency has infiltrated Mullvad and logs them but that is nothing that will ever be used in a normal court case.

Just so everyone is clear on a few facts, it is possible for a TLA or agency from another large government to just try to blackbox the VPN nodes and be done with it without needing to infiltrate Mullvad. Just pressure the network provider of the VPN instances to get flow data, and at that point they can match up traffic going in and out and the VPN disappears from the picture.
