Same with the bot accounts offering tickets for sale on the event page for concerts. It seems like such low hanging fruit to clean this sort of thing up that should be noticed by anyone who works there and actually uses the site.
Yeah, further incentivizing banhammering anyone who displays any independent thought.
Carrying around bulky power banks or worse, chargers to then tie you to sit close to an outlet and wait for the battery to charge, is not entirely ideal when you're on the go, foreign or domestic. It's also less anxiety-inducing to not have to worry about where will I get my next charge and how long will it interrupt my plans for.

> Can you turn which moderators affect your feed on and off?

Right now the site is very basic. But this is an interesting idea to explore, for sure.

I'm also thinking of similar ideas. Examples: moderator logs for transparency; ability for members to vote moderators out, etc.
I think you need to face the fact that you derive value from other people's comments, even if they were posted more than a day ago, yet you're depriving others of the same, leaving one-sided exchanges behind you. And that's not a fair exchange.

There's no "foul stench" of comments more than a day old, that's nonsensical.

You're obviously under no legal obligation to leave your comments up, but it's simply not playing nice with others.

I'm not going to comment here any more but I sincerely hope you're able to think about this. And take in the fact that there are actual real-life people having a conversation with you. We're not "software". And you might have a more rewarding experience online if you're able to take that in. Good luck.

> Great example of why diagrams are a waste of time.

I need something for the tech people, and I need something for the money people.

The diagram gives my target audience (again, non-tech people) an overview of the system. There were sequence diagrams for all the functionality we wrote code for. Technical specs and documentation were also written up, but the money people won't bother to wade through that to understand how it works; the dev team can read that.

> Why does the app have to generate the id for example? What's wrong with the email address as an id?

The example was extracted from a project I worked on a couple of years ago. I obfuscated what the "id" field is on purpose. If it helps, think of it as the unique device identifier used to send push notifications.

> So not only is it uninformative, it's probably wrong.

They were not inaccurate.
My theory: Reddit wants total control over the UI, the current one (as bad as it is) supports dangerous levels of discussion and collective cognition, and having the masses thinking for/between themselves is rarely a good idea if one is in the business of maintaining an illusory political regime. Just think of how much of reality is manufactured and distributed among nodes on this single platform.
>But I'm not alone, that's why this whole fiasco will likely blow over. Most people don't know and/or don't care about these apps, but they use Reddit. The HN crowd is not your typical home user, or a "get off my lawn" type like myself. Even though I have multiple decades of working as a software engineer.

I mean sure, its not the vast majority of users utilize 3rd party apps. I also wouldn't say its a small number. RiF has been downloaded on the Android App store 5 Million times. That's just one of the apps. I know apollo has even more users. I'm not on IOS so I cant really search it right (not willing to lol).

I am sure it will blow over also, but the site is going to be worse for it.

If you judge “quality” by “the ability to sideload”, an iPhone is not “quality”. I’m sure you also want user replaceable parts. In that case, why spend thousands on products that don’t meet your needs?
The portable battery pack is no more bulky than carrying around portable phone batteries?

If I were reddit I would probably think "LLMs will moderate just fine".
When the mods said their blackout would be for 2 days, the silent majority rolled their eyes, but did not voice their opinions. Over the years we've all learned that folks who disagree with a mod's opinion will most likely get banned from the subreddit, so since the mods promised the subreddits would be back after 2 days, it wasn't worth arguing about. When the mods refused to bring the subreddits back after that time was up, they broke their promise - they've lost all the trust that the various communities had with them.
Damn. I am older, but just by some days.
> So how come they aren't making car (EV) batteries replaceable?

I don't think 500 kg batteries can ever be easily and quickly user-replaceable, no matter what the EU mandates.

You should complain about the laws of physics (or the weakness of humans) rather than make this ridiculous comparison.
> With the kind of money Facebook has, they can't set a honeypot account up and post 'my account was hacked' on it?

All of those posts still count as "engagement" and even scammers generate ad impressions, so why would they not only kill the golden goose, but actually spend money doing so?
For your use case, powerbanks work very well. Because then you dont have to turn the phone of.

My main motivation for only using battery removable phones is privacy, because I know they are really off, when I remove the battery.

But the choice is currently very limited.

Most people can't make money from their businesses. I'm not sure why that means they shouldn't try.
I find it interesting how apparent inflation is to the average person, we could probably place it somewhere between 30-50% since 2020.

Now, if you ask a specific political party fan what the inflation is, they will repeat the CPI number.

The CPI number is awfully low considering what we see around us.

This group stands by the number, saying everyone else is wrong. No, just because a Taco Bell burrito went from $1 to $1.69 in 3 years, we haven't hit 30% inflation! Meanwhile real humans are pricing their products and services at this 30-60% higher rate, regardless what the government numbers say.

These same people have no issue calling China's numbers gamed. They can't imagine that an administration might do tricks to lower the CPI using policy, soft power, or even corruption.

You can't even blame the inflation on a single party, a person could easily blame the other side. However there is this religious approach to those CPI numbers. I don't know why they do this, just blame the other party and accept the inflation for what it is.

I genuinely don't understand the point of burying your head. It makes you do terrible decisions. I imagine they are having a really hard time buying houses since they think everything is overpriced, these people wouldn't be able to hire labor, or even make a commodity buy(without cognitive dissonance).
> In order to ensure that portable batteries that were incorporated into appliances are subject to separate collection, treatment and high quality recycling once those appliances become waste, provisions to ensure the removability and replaceability of batteries in such appliances are necessary. Consumer safety should be ensured, in line with Union law and in particular Union safety standards, during the removal of portable batteries from or the replacement of portable batteries in an appliance. A portable battery should be considered to be removable by the end-user when it can be removed with the use of commercially available tools and without requiring the use of specialised tools, unless they are provided free of charge, or proprietary tools, thermal energy or solvents to disassemble it. Commercially available tools are considered to be tools available on the market to all end-users without the need for them to provide evidence of any proprietary rights and that can be used with no restriction, except health and safety-related restrictions.

>"I believe that the average replacement rate of smartphones is less than 3 years."

It is probably the same as with PC. Initially each generation was way more powerful and allowed "better" and more powerful applications. But at some point your generic PC has become powerful enough to run nearly everything the average person wants and there are no more reasons to upgrade. Smartphones may have reached the same point.
Yeah, I see now that it has free starters plan. Consider however OCI, those are real machines that you can use for free. You can not just run backend on them, but for example run Kubernetes on a set of such machines :) They didn't pay me to talk about them hehe but I like them very much. Also what they offer for free of charge are very very powerful machines for unlimited amount of time.
If you are thinking SFF in terms of smaller than itx, then no, not really.

If you think creating a new form factor that others want to standardize means pushing boundries, then no.

Beelink and Minisforum don't sell motherboards. They sell barebone PCS with soldered on CPUs. And certainly not anything in the HEDT space. So they are in a completely different category IMO.

But utilizing the existing standards of itx/mini-atx (or nearly so), ASRock is far and away a leader in this genre. They are packing so many features into these form factors that few, if any, are able or willing to replicate.
Is it useful to protect an $800 device from being ruined by accidentally dunking it in a pool, lake, toilet?

Yes.
It's a combination of:

1) the economic situation in some countries such as the UK being so dire that the risk/reward calculation of crime now starts to be worth it. If people see no way out in a legitimate career, they will turn to crime because they have nothing to lose.

2) would-be criminals are finally noticing that law enforcement has completely dropped the ball on investigating/prosecuting these crimes, so it's literally "free money" with no actual risk of being caught
* ...reported results from 380 patients who could not be revived by defibrillation, making their odds of survival particularly bleak. Among those who received the new CPR method within 11 minutes of cardiac arrest, 6.1 percent survived with brain function intact, compared with just 0.6 percent who received traditional CPR.*

6% of 380 is 22.8 people, 6.1% is 23.18 persons. This makes no sense, and is also not remotely statistically significant. What am I missing?
From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_earthquakes_2021%E2%80... there were 44 earthquakes with a magnitude >= 7.0 in the last 2.5 years. That is one every 17 days. The GP is almost correct: There is a high chance [1] of an earthquake somewhere in the world, including oceans, in 17 days.

[1] If you want to be fancy with probabilities, 64% of at least one earthquake. In some 17 days periods you will get no earthquake and in others you will get more than one earthquake. In average you will get one.
I'm saying contemporary chat bots, even with GPT-4, are incredibly crude simulacra of human intelligence and agency, so to see someone become emotionally invested in one is pitiful on the level of a scared monkey clinging to a piece of cloth it's confused with a mother.

If the author doesn't like real humans disagreeing with them, they're free to make more chatbots to tell them what a great idea this is.

I'm legitimately curious what the alternative is. You refuse to work anywhere that starts programming before they have a complete specification of what they're building? You only work at places where you have a fixed spot in the waterfall model? Where your job is to take high-level specifications, turn them into UML diagrams, and hand those diagrams off to the next person in the chain?
random reddit posts have saved my butt several times in "oh god oh god I broke the data lake" or similar situations.

Some rando post from 2 years ago, too. Deleting them after 24 hours just kinda takes away the value prop for reddit. If I want a real-ish-time convo with someone then i'll get on Discord; the value of reddit is the posts live on.
That’s my perception too. Most social media started kinda good because there were mostly enthusiasts at first, then they descend into insanity. I feel for my mom, caught up in Facebook because most people her age is also there. It’s a mix of political trolls and ignorant people arguing over things they don’t know with all kinds of fallacies together in a sort of crowd crazy that I see nowhere else. I try to make her leave sometimes, as it is bad for her mental health, but she doesn’t listen to me and I admit it would cut her out from the only group she’s part of, which is family spread across the country.
I don't see how this would work given modern supply chains. It can be extremely difficult to track down all of the owners of a particular IP and when you do, many of them may not even exist any longer making it near impossible to get any sort of permission to do something like this.
If it drives an uptick in sales in the EU you can count on it being eventually implemented for customers in the US and elsewhere too. Though it's even possible Apple knows it will help sell the devices better - at least initially, but they prefer to have users more firmly locked into the Apple ecosystem.
What? They're not gonna put a bunch of edgy 4chan guys on the mod teams, that's not what advertisers like. They'll get the type of people who moderate every other mainstream site. Extremely left-leaning authoritarian types.
This sounds distinctly different from one raising their proverbial hand to gain moderator powers on one of the most popular subreddits on the site. How many non-moderator users don't care about moderating a subreddit with 1 user but do care about moderating a subreddit with 1M users?
And doing the equivalent of partial compilation by just dragging and dropping your php install over FTP and telling it to ignore the unchanged files. Then writing .htaccess files everywhere to tell Apache what to do if you had a 'front controller' pattern.

When considering your own wages per hour it can be helpful to consider whether you could have converted those hours into those wages or if that avenue is already saturated.

For example if you are an employee and establish your rate that way, you probably can't work more to get more anyway.

So repairing things for yourself is just cream on top in that case.

While it seems neat, the principle behind it seems to cause massive morphing and smoothing, and that's creating a lot or artefacting.

This is fine for gopro footage or stuff like that, but for production video, the aim is to retain as much information as possible until export. I think the level of artifacting is just unacceptable for general stabilisation needs - and with today's cameras being 4k and up, framing 10-15% wider to adapt to the stabilisation crops makes much more sense.

Let's go through them one by one.

> 1. stock options

> 2. stock grants

Very few regular people get these. Negligible if you consider the average worker.

> 3. health plan

I have not heard of an influx of health plans getting better over the last few years, have you? If anything, they seem to tack on more fees and deductibles every year.

> 4. 401k employer contributions

Negligible variations here, it's usually a single digit percentage. Haven't heard of a ton of employers suddenly upping these or anything.

> 5. sick leave

> 6. vacation leave

> 7. maternity/paternity leave

It's possible that employers have actually gotten a bit more liberal in these respects over the past few years. I am glad to see more companies acknowledging that paternity leave exists.

> 8. employer paid social security taxes
> 9. other payroll taxes supposedly paid by the employer

Huh? How would this change my life for the better? Not sure this is a “benefit”, the employer wouldn't pay it if it wasn't legally required.

> 10. retirement benefits

You mean just the existence of a 401(k) plan? That's quite standard, few employers offer any sort of perks here; and they are usually large tech companies.

People are really horrible at personally estimating such things.

Small amounts of inflation hit harder than you'd think; anyone living paycheck-to-paycheck is suddenly having to cut back if costs go up just a few percent.
Its way easier for the speaker ports, you just seal the drivers well enough and they'll be sealed unless there's just too much pressure. The seal never experiences any mechanical wear, you can practically just glue it around the edge.

Similar thing with the charger/data port. The outside of the port can be completely sealed up with just the electrical connections going through. The port isn't ever opened, there's no mechanical wear of actually going in and out of the sealed area. Glue it all up but leave the electrical connectors exposed and its sealed.

A battery door is a whole 'nother issue. Starting off, its probably going to have considerably more perimeter needing to seal, especially if its like the doors of yore where you popped off a significant part of the back. Then, you'll need this seal to handle a lot of open/close events and be able to handle the dirt and debris which it will be exposed to. Keeping the device's profile thin gets way more complicated with all of these requirements, and the seal will probably still be less reliable than the seals for the charging port and the speakers/mics.

I had a phone with a removable back and wireless charging back in 2012. This isn't rocket science.
Whatever the culprit, I would really like my next phone to be thicker than its camera¹. This is such a bullshit design, but every single phone manufacturer adopted it.

1 - Without paying 4 times more. I don't think I can get it even paying 4 times more nowadays, but this was always how phone manufacturers lied about the features they wanted to push, by offering an alternative that costs 4 to 10 times more and using it to show nobody wants it.
