> It's been very interesting to see who did and did not migrate

The people who migrate are basically the people in the intersection of technically inclined, "we need social media," and "big tech is bad."

I think having a protocol that can be abstracted away to meet user needs is a great idea. But as it currently exists, Mastodon will always be niche. Too many weird tradeoffs that can only be forgiven by passionate advocates who understand their technical roots. Perhaps there is further development to the protocol or abstraction that can change this, but as it stands, Mastodon is only for passionate social media users who are technically inclined and resentful against big tech.
> The overhead of cross-process context switches is inherently higher than switching between threads in the same process - and my suspicion is that that overhead will continue to increase. Once you have a significant number of connections we end up spending a lot of time in TLB misses, and that's inherent to the process model, because you can't share the TLB across processes.

I do, but only as a hobby. I could have taken it as a career choice but the fun is in pursuing my own ideas, designing my own characters, design the cinematics, the dialogue, their equipment and how they use it...and of course the code and visuals to make it happen. The idea of working on someone else's design seems atrocious.
Firefox removed built-in support for RSS feeds years ago. When I try to view the feed in that image, Firefox just downloads the RSS file (sometimes Firefox will show me the raw XML instead). You probably have an extension installed that styles them.

Similarily in Poland. We have an organisation called "State's Forests" and it has 24% of the entire surface of the country under it's management. (30% of the surface of Poland are forests). These are not "old growth" forests(such are only in national parks), but we'll managed commercial forestry. In general (despite the usual issues in organisations of this size) people are pretty happy with it. It is also because of the laws we have here that essentially give certain use rights to the public. For example, everyone has the right to collect mushrooms and or berries etc. Everyone can enter and use the forests for recreation (except when it's too dry due to fire risk). Also timber production and sales are pretty transparent (anyone can bid online). But as anything that matters to national economy/security it's under attack by various groups sponsored by shady money.
Searching for it, it seems to be a nickname for Googles Mountain View HQ, in reference to Willy Wonka and his busy little Workers. And it seems to be around for around a decade, so it's probably not some trap to troll AIs.
Yeah. The best example is going to a party/bar/club alone, while most other attendees are there with their friends. Being there alone can feel incredibly awful, except if you are a high extraversion type who can make new friends quickly.
Having no UI sounds horrible. I don’t want every random desire I have to be satisfied immediately. I’d rather have what I need available at the appropriate time and in a reasonable quantity and have the parameters of that system be easily adjusted. So instead of want pizza = have pizza it would be healthy meal I enjoy shows up predictably at the time I should eat and the meal and time are configurable so I can change them when I’m planning my diet.
This seems absurdly reductionist to me. Wouldn't all work simply be attributable to the first proto-human who grabbed a stick or rock and used it as a tool? Surely even proto-humans communicated knowledge by demonstrations amongst themselves, even if they lacked complicated language.
It's weird, I spent 3 years working on one of what must have been the largest TCL codebases in existence, since then I've reached for the language exactly zero times in personal or professional use. I have very little fondness for the language.

I would think it would be extremely difficult to provide residential IPs in a privacy-preserving way, from what I've heard most services that offer them are quite sketchy in how they go about "acquiring" those IPs. The very nature of "residential" IPs means your traffic is flowing through some random person's home internet, which certainly isn't something I would want, even these days where almost everything is encrypted. There would be no way Mullvad could provide any kind of privacy guarantee if they don't control the endpoints.
Spotify still uses RSS as a distribution channel from your host to Spotify - you supply a RSS feed through Spotify for Podcasters or another ingestion service. They don't allow adding by RSS feed for end users, but that's not all that rare among players.
Firstly, let me say that this looks great. I really like the classless approach. One minor question/nitpick:

> To make a button primary, add the data-primary attribute to it.

For things like this, I feel like a class would be ok while still calling the library "classless". Is there some advantage to using a data-* attribute here or is it just to retain "purity" of the classless tagline?
Yeah, because the only thing that happened in Europe for the past 20 years was social media and ads...?
yeah, good catch.

The other half is the magic that worries me ;)

And I'm not picking on Haskell here, I've lost countless hours to weird Spring failures when multiple annotations on one class or method interact poorly and produce a stack-trace deep in the bowels of Spring's annotation processors.

Or, well, gestures at Hibernate in general

Likewise, Django classes that defy type annotations because they override __new__ and inject nested classes into types, or queries over joins where the join logic between attribute A and type B is magically parsed from an undeclared keyword argument like "A__B__filter" that includes attributes, types and actions in one convenient keyword that no IDE can predict.

Like your unevaluated thunks, trying to figure out why "Foo__Bar__bomb_baghdad" didn't actually bomb Baghdad takes a large amount of time.

The magic is convenient until it breaks :)

The problem is that no one can define magic. The thing that you might find magic is someone else mundane code or vice versa. It's simply a catch all statement that a lazy reviewer can slap on code they don't like. Just explain why you don't like it and be done with it.
Because this topic doesn't exist in a contextless vacuum. It's certainly possible that an internet commenter happened upon the same arguments, using the same language, as popular online anti-feminist movements use. But believing that unlikely coincidence is far beyond benefit of the doubt and we have no obligation to extend that far.

You yourself were enough aware of this context and dynamic that you carefully phrased your comment to avoid it. It's dog whistle shit, intentionally plausibly deniable neutral-seeming language. Corin called it out and you're saying "but plausibly, couldn't they deny this?" Yes! That's the point of it.
hope so, it's embarassing

Yelp Supports Review Extortion - Please Help HN
From Feb - May our business was targeted by someone who was cyber harassing, hacking us, and publicly defaming us by writing over 90 fake reviews online across all the review platforms.

We filed a report with the local police, FBI, IC3, and ultimately hired a top law firm to pursue a case against the individual. Ultimately, all of the platforms they wrote the reviews on (Ie. TrustPilot, Sitejabber, BBB, GlassDoor, Bluebird, GoogleMyBusiness, UpCity, and more) took them down except for two: Yelp! and Pissed Consumer. The second of which was demanding money each month.

Despite providing Yelp! all of the evidence, police reports, and other material about this attack on our business they still kept nearly every review live and only hid most of them while keeping others live - the only reviews now displayed, since they also hid our real reviews accumulated years ago.

Not only were all these reviews fake, but the person responsible for writing them we discovered writes thousands of fake reviews on their platform that are presumably also published.

A new paradigm is needed of responsible review platforms and hopefully AI can solve this. Businesses are being criminally attacked by these review monopolies and we need new solutions to prevent this.

We please ask for help from the HN community to put pressure on Yelp! to stop these unethical practices and have measures in place to prevent fake reviews, as they are clearly incentivized to keep them since it simulates user activity and as you can imagine, this has caused us a sublime level of terror and a deep depression this year as we watched everything we worked to create upended by one corporation's lack of incentives to police themselves.
And google is nonetheless happy to have countless other coders use their experiment, just not their own.

Leave other LLMs to the side on this issue. There are a variety of different issue that arise when Google employees might use a non-Google LLM, so that prohibition is in a category with different reasons.
There's also the set & setting that is good to consider. For example, I bet lots of the scripts in my current employer's DevOps infrastructure have filename handling bugs that could've been avoided by meticulously following these rules. But these scripts are not meant to be used by customers - the people using these scripts are other developers working on the product wanting to set up the development environment. The script might fail if you do some stupid / unexpected stuff, even as simple as having a space in your Unix user name (i.e. home directory path) or VCS clone directory.

I would feel weak from the knees if someone exposed these scripts on a web server and let them process input from untrusted external parties. Yet, I don't care if the scripts aren't 100% perfect if they work as long as the user doesn't do something silly. Plus, many of them are portable meaning you can run them out of the box on Linux, MacOS or WSL (Windows) without installing any extra software.
Homeless people also have families and friends and community ties. They are as unwilling to break those bonds as you would be. Possibly more because often their survival literally depends on them.

Europe is vast, culturally much more diverse than US for better and worse. States have almost absolute independence, so they don't adapt to rules from above if they don't want to, there is no easy 'federal' lever to ie enforce laws everywhere, voting is democratic and representatives are very diverse, nothing like 2-party US system.

Economy in the west is not that stellar mainly due to much more focus on social aspects, more paid time off, free education including universities, free healthcare, we take care of the poor, disabled etc. Of course none of this is free, we all pay for it. Economies in the east have their own issues, relatively poor and corrupt is never a good mix.

Some people don't give a fuck about anybody else, its just me or just the closest ones, and for those US system looks much better and numbers alone do support it. Only to the point when societal issues hit back. Or you want to raise kids, and they want to study on university. Or not to worry about your health issues, which will inevitably come to all of us unless you die suddenly without any prior health issues.

So yes its by choice, but I don't think most folks understand that choice, done for them in the past, without them having a say.

Ah, the final nail in the coffin of art.
Arguably, I believe a JVM-like stack machine would be an easier endeavor over the proposed one - I feel it is still a bit too close to Brainfuck and doesn’t strike a good balance between ease of implementation vs ease of use as a target architecture.

Even if we take the whole, complete with GC, it is well within the “implementable by a semi-gifted CS student over at most half a year” category.

> And you only know if you’re fully complying with the GDPR if you have a legal team that can navigate the ambiguous definitions

Honestly, it is incredibly easy to comply with GDPR in a "greenfield company" if you value user privacy and follow best practices. Most of the law is what I consider common sense and minimizing data collection (which I view as a sane default).

It's only hard if you have already built a large enterprise two decades ago and need to apply technical and organizational measures now. (Especially when letting a 3rd party process your users' data)
> Def 2 is actively bad and wrong, though. It happens to fit simple apps (and simple bits of complex apps) so it looks reasonable, but what's really needed is an off-ramp to let the model actually be what it should be, which is a domain object.

I somewhat agree. The problem, I think, is that MVC is great at explaining the types of contributing code to a software project, but it doesn't lend well to a directory structure in a project. There are just so many more models compared to controllers/views that it's logical to make each type of model object be its own top-level directory, along with controllers and views (well, top level within an `app` directory, as is custom in a Rails project).

So you end up in situations where people either have a "Model(record)/Service/Decorator/OtherModelPattern/OtherModelPattern/OtherModelPattern/Controllers/Views" system, a system where all the domain logic is put into ORM classes, or a system where all models are organized within the `models` directory, but possibly interfering with the intuitive file lookup of the framework (eg, if you tried putting all active record models in an `app/models/records` directory and having a huge break from Rails tradition).

If Rails simply used "Record" instead of "Models" for the directory name, a lot of this could be a lot clearer, but we're now what, 18 years deep into the muddying of the MVC waters? As much as I'd love to see a return to using MVC properly, I'd rather concentrate on doing more productive things.
I dunno that I would trust feed readers to do content negotiation properly. Again, I work with mostly podcast RSS feeds, but clients are generally atrocious about following standards (just ran into one recently where Apple Podcasts flat out ignores XML namespaces).
Would be interesting to see this study. I personally feel more lonely in nature, especially in forests. I need the energy of big cities to feel a warm glow. I suspect I’m not the only one and there’s a large percentage of the population who are similar to me.

When I used to live in small towns, I would have a strong need to periodically visit a big city to restore my emotions. I love the feeling of being in a crowd even if I never talk to anyone. I love the bustle and noise and potential for new encounters.

Nature feels isolating to me. I wonder if I’m wired this way because I grew up in a big city. We’re wired to look for places where we can feel we’re “at home”, and that’s usually a function of childhood experiences.
Over an extremely long time-horizon, is the Turing tape any more 'natural' for future programmers to interact with than e.g. the env or store structures (associative maps) of an SECD or CESK machine? Does the central place that Turing machines and the idea of a linear tape retain in CS reflect some deep mathematical truth, or is it a cultural preference based on Turing's key historical role?

Unironically Powershell. I agree with you, I don't get how people can justify having a string of bytes and then parsing that to communicate between programs. Powershell functions off of data types. You can so ls (an alias for Get-ChildItem). You can also do (ls).CreationTime, just like in most languages since it returns an object. Or (ls)[0].Name, since just like you would expect, it returns an array of objects. Or do ls | select-object Name, CreationTime. And grab those variables out of the object. And when you pass things, it passes an object. Much safer, much easier, whether Powershell or something else, this idea is the future of terminal.
When I've seen people speak to the devs, they've always seemed very hostile to hosting your own instance of the program. Beyond that, the setup process is one of the worst documented and admin hostile I've seen so far.
Well it could be that the replacements are substandard, I mean otherwise they'd have to be a matched pair. And if you damaged one, who knows what shape the other one is in.
