A lot of replies here talk about short term memory, needing to truly understand information on a deep level and have the "why?" question answered, using software to externalize information and a lot more that I can't really mention right now on a phone in the middle of the night browsing HN and coming across this gem.

A lot of this stuff seems highly related to ADHD. I exhibit them, and have done quite some amateur research myself on these behaviors and others seem to relate as well.

P.S: I am also an i3wm user btw ;)
Same, we regularly see lots of language used in the media and parliaments of Europe to do anything not to refer to these refugees as refugees or even people ("migrant ships") and I've never seen this called out on HN or in similar circles.

The hypocrisy is staggering.
There’s a funny, widespread phenomenon of people invoking cultural relativity and Christian particularism specifically on issues with the most cross-cultural consensus.
Oh, that sounds wonderful. None of that has really come up yet. Thank you! I'll give it another shot.
"Ah, I see he's got the 'Elon Musk school of thought' in regards to cutting corners in vehicles carrying people's lives and seeing safety regulations as a nuisance hindering his "visionary progress" that these pesky gray-beard engineers just can't grasp.

Fucking idiot CEO, took 4 innocent people with him. Aero, naval, automotive, all have a a history written in blood, and all those rules and regulations aren't to hinder innovation but to save lives based on what we've learned from all the people who lost their lives in the past."

I agree, except maybe on the notion of "innocent billionaire". They too usually have a history of blood. Except maybe the 16yo tho. Maybe.
It's that "corporate speak" that wins paid contracts for software that needs to run for a decade or more.

I saw this and got excited but no, this isn't discord voice channels. This is an integrated jitsi meet call. It looks like some sort of prototype has been merged to develop though:

Great question. It has two components for OpenMeter:
1. My personal frustration when I had to do usage-metering at Stripe and wanting to have a standard for it, like how we have it for metrics. I also find it silly that every company trying to figure this out on their own.
2. We want to build usage collectors for common cloud components and third-party APIs and I think it's going to be easier to do it together as a community instead of working in silos.

But yes I agree, it's more challenging to build in open but I think it benefits the customer, the quality has to be there.
Bad things happening to well-off people gets outsized attention not because people care more about the rich, but because it knocks the wheels off one of the foundational beliefs of capitalism: that moving up the wealth ladder will shield you from the miseries that befall the poor. If being rich doesn’t protect you, then nothing can, and that makes capitalism rather meaningless.

Might not be true in this case - the very idea of people locked up in a submarine is attention grabbing - but its certainly true for countless similar laments where people will point out the outsized attention a random investment banker getting attacked would get vis-a-vis the many murders in the inner city on any given day.
"Sublime Code" isn't a thing at all.
That sounds like a narrow idea of what kind of businesses a person can start. If you target the general public with your offers, there is no nepotism or relationships involved. That's the beauty of an open society.

All businesses started as small businesses, we tend to forget that.
There are a fair few that were made into movies in the 60s and 70s that are definitely worth a watch. I saw Taming of the Shrew for the first time in a long time and caught some hysterical jokes that I completely missed as a kid.
Is this for sure all paid with tax money?

Here in the alps, if you have an injury hiking and need a helicopter ride then you are required to pay for the ride (normally a few thousand euros). I assume it's the same if you're lost.

And I would assume it's the same on high sea...
Just google Melenchon and Bolivarian alliance. Melenchon dreams of making France be part of an alliance with Cuba, Venezuela, Bolivia, to name a few, with Iran and Russia as observer members. Sounds like he loves "democracy". He also had some crazy outbursts, screaming things like, "I AM THE REPUBLIC", on camera, that would have ended any other politician career. But he gets a pass, somehow.

Not really. There's a process for suppressing data, but it's not a viable option for most people.

Code should be easy to read to the relevant parties. If you're doing scientific code, the relevant parties know the math, and coming up with your own creative name merely obfuscates the meaning.

It's not like programming is completely devoid of terms of the art already. What's a Class? or an Object? or a Map? Etc. Etc.
I write. It’s like having an internal monologue slowly repeating you whatever you’re thinking so it let’s the brain re-structure knowledge. It’s super helpful to force myself to pay attention. I rarely read what I wrote but because I did, there’s a higher chance I remembered.
Indeed, SuSE is a much more likely alternative than others that are being thrown around.
This is a natural outgrowth of being owned by IBM. They are in the business of harvesting revenue from existing customers until they revolt. They don’t care about open source or smaller customers. They care about squeezing and auditing the enterprise. This is bad for RedHat because there are other options.

Surprised to learn that magnesium is lighter than aluminum. Is it also more expensive? There must be some reason people still mostly use aluminum.
If the rumors about the window being certified to a maximum safe depth of 1300m are true, we’re well in “crazy negligent” territory. It’d be a surprise the sub survived so long.

Honest question: how is htmx/svelte/alpine any different than other trends? Could it just be that you prefer this particular spot in the trend cycle?
It's a little weird to avoid quoting the rest of the passage:

> In January 1951, MacArthur refused to entertain proposals for the forward deployment of nuclear weapons. On a similar note, showing MacArthur directly rejecting the use of weapons of mass destruction when he had the power to answer a subordinate, in January 1951 he immediately rejected Lieutenant General Matthew Ridgway's urgent request to use chemical weapons on Chinese and North Korean soldiers. Though MacArthur made many statements regarding nuclear weapons after 1951, there has never been evidence, like memos or transcriptions of meetings, provided by anyone that MacArthur ever requested to use nuclear weapons or tried to push Truman or other Pentagon officials to use them during the Korean War while he was the UN Commander.

MacArthur may have been pro-nuke in public statements, but I think it's telling that, when the actual, real-world opportunities presented themselves, he actively refused to entertain the idea of nuking anything. He wouldn't even authorize the use of chemical weapons.

I don't know a lot about MacArthur, and have no dog in this race; I'm just reading more at the link you provided.
Unfortunately Youtube pushes shorts into the channels feed, presumably because shorts are normal videos under the hood.

For a time shorts had the string "#shorts" in their titles which was great for filtering those out but then youtubers started using custom tags. And filtering for "#" seems too risky.

I recently found out that my feedreader, Feedbin, allows a media_duration field in their search/action syntax. Now I’m using that experimentally for filtering.

Sidenote: Interestingly enough Youtube’s feeds don’t expose duration. Those feeds are ancient, apparently untouched for 15 years. The <media:content> element still advertises its videos as application/x-shockwave-flash. Feedbin, according to its code on Github, does some custom extraction of the duration from the Website for its data model.

(Googlers who may read this: Please, for the love of god, don’t change anything. A crappy feed is still better than no feed at all.)
Gas-filled cavities in the body instantly compress. So this means that your lungs, stomach, etc. instantly get crushed, rupturing in the process. Depending on circumference, depth, etc., the hull itself moves at speeds of ~1000+ mph towards itself, crushing everything inside in less than 100 milliseconds. Someone linked a great safety video of what happens under a pressure column (not gore)[1]. Though as some people mentioned, since carbon fiber was used here, it's more likely that the hull shattered, essentially turning it into shrapnel. I think this depends on the exact proportion of the life support gases they are using, but, due to the relation P ∝ T, the gas inside the submersible can ignite (like an engine piston essentially), turning all organic matter to ash instantly.

Hence my use of the word "encroachment". I'd be more than happy to eat my hat in a few years if it doesn't happen, but like I said, "pardon my pessimism".
Ironically, Red Hat is one of the biggest supporters of Linux Kernel and now needs to actually fund that support and dev time.
Doesn't directly answer your question, but somewhere I read that by using carbon fibre, the craft was positively buoyant on its own (then weighed down with ballast).

Otherwise it would need expensive pressure-resistant floatation devices.
I found https://www.quora.com/When-a-submarine-exceeds-its-crush-dep... to be more descriptive

> When a submarine implodes, a variety of fairly ugly things will happen to the crew. If we assume that a pressure hull implodes at 2000 feet (~60 atmospheres), the pressure will increase from 14.7 to about 875 PSI almost instantly. In the parts of the submarine that have volumes of trapped air, it would be like being inside a diesel engine cylinder when begins its compression stroke.

> Anything flammable would burst into flames until a huge wall of water slams into the area and snuffs it out again. The impact of the water would cause significant injury to anyone unlucky enough to still be alive and there would be no time to suffer the effects of oxygen poisoning or anything else.

> As others have stated, most human tissues are fluid-filled and are for the most part, incompressible. Human lungs and sinuses would be crushed instantly and the immense shock would render them unconscious immediately. Of greater concern would be the surge of incoming seawater, bulkheads, decks, heavy equipment, motors and other random bits of equipment being slammed into the crew at high velocity.

> Essentially, the crew would be killed several times over in less than a blink of an eye.

and from another answer:

> When a submarine hull collapses, it moves inward at about 1,500 miles per hour - that’s 2,200 feet per second. A modern nuclear submarine’s hull radius is about 20 feet. So the time required for complete collapse is 20 / 2,200 seconds = about 1 millisecond.

> A human brain responds instinctually to stimulus at about 25 milliseconds. Human rational response (sense→reason→act) is at best 150 milliseconds.

> The air inside a sub has a fairly high concentration of hydrocarbon vapors. When the hull collapses it behaves like a very large piston on a very large Diesel engine. The air auto-ignites and an explosion follows the initial rapid implosion. Large blobs of fat (that would be humans) incinerate and are turned to ash and dust quicker than you can blink your eye.

> Sounds gruesome but as a submariner I always wished for a quick hull-collapse death over a lengthy one like some of the crew on Kursk endured.

While specifics differ, it would be over very fast.
I'm a little confused how this new move still complies with many licences.

As a paying customer you receive access the sources, as you're supposed to - but under contractual terms that you can't share them.

Take the GPL as the most famous example. Providing me GPL'd sources that I'm not allowed to redistribute under the same terms definitely feels like it's against the spirit of the agreement. I'm too warm-blooded to argue whether it's under the letter.
the first COTS videophones appeared > 50 years ago (though very expensive). either that adds to your existential angst or now you can frame this as a leap forward: “50 years without any widely deployed open source video-conferencing stack and suddenly it was rolled out to millions of users in the last 5% of that timeline with the majority of those end users not having to go out of their way for it.”

it’s up to you.
> it started there but that's not like the only goal of the thing

According to the website and the core spec it's still the main goal

I'm old enough to remember when node.js was also marketed as "web scale" and high performance.
"Titan is equipped with a real-time acoustic monitoring system, which OceanGate claims can detect the onset of buckling in the carbon fiber hull prior to catastrophic failure."

I see a number of potential flaws with that plan. You are assuming it will fail in a way that produces a warning and then stays intact enough to resurface. You are also relying on an electronic device to not fail. And audio processing algorithms... how many of these carbon fibre pressure vessels did they test to destruction to get test data? Zero?

"Rush holds a patent on the system."

Ok.... I guess that explains it. I'm getting an impression of real "I'll just invent a magic device that makes it safe" energy here.
I’ve never heard that definition. I thought democracy was about voting.

You get a real expert engineer answering your questions and even fixing package source verses an outdated answer on SO.
Erhm, and the "letter to the editor" and response comments on published science papers... they should all be scrapped now?

Debate is what moves science along. What about that, does the distinguished Vox author not understand??
Implosion at 400 atm probably takes a fraction of a second, with catastrophic decompression of 1 atm you’ll be conscious probably for about a minute.
Why on earth would they do that?
It really makes you think about other tech CEOs, when they say something is safe, or private or something similar.

Honestly, I would have had this concern ~10 years ago, but it's 2023. Unicode is ubiquitous, to the point that you'd need to pretty aggressively go out of your way to find things breaking due to it.

The "obscenely safe" remark was directed at "regulated" vessels, not at his own sub. He was acknowledging that he was taking risks by not conforming to regulations.
Yes, and as far as I can tell it's not even certain that what was picked up from the San Juan was an implosion. But on the other hand, the Polar Prince was sitting right on top of the Titan listening for pings, and apparently it didn't hear anything.

I'm not suggesting anything nefarious, I'm just hoping someone who understands these things better than I do comes along.

Randall Munroe probably said it best, "You would just stop being biology and start being physics."
Yeah couldn't agree more. "Into thin air" about a disaster on Everest describes very well how some, if not most, of the people in the group had never been anywhere near a mountain half as challenging as Everest.

Some even had brand new boots, which anyone with half a brain knows is a bad idea. A few did turn out to be tough bastards though, spending several days up there alone in a state of delirium and eventually making it back down on their own accord.

Guardian also mentioned a Mexican Youtuber having taken the trip down to the Titanic in that titanium coffin, just for clicks & views.
Gnome was a major lever in making it hard for other distros to avoid systemd, early on. The way Wayland's been structured and that... transition, such as it is, has been managed, smells a whole lot like a fire-and-motion move, and besides, dominance there was necessary to keep Mir from winning as the successor to X-Window and making it possible for Ubuntu to follow Red Hat's playbook and use it to push some of their other, deeper-in-the-stack projects (they'd have been neatly positioned to interfere with both Systemd and Gnome, had they won). I don't think Red Hat would let Ubuntu push anything of note, at this point, without countering it, for (justified!) fear of their own tactics being turned on them.

https://www.joelonsoftware.com/2002/01/06/fire-and-motion/

Systemd's the main body of Red Hat's army here, if you will—no doubt that's the most important part of all this—but other projects have played other important roles in supporting or defending it, at times.

The business hustlers of Hacker News demand everything be given to them for free so they can then extract maximum margin for their Salas built on top of free (as in beer) software. It angers them when they find out that someone needs to pay for OSS development too.
A large portion of the effects and studies mentioned in that book have been retracted or refuted, just fyi.
It used to be for standardization, but I've seen more commercial tools provide Debian / Ubuntu support than Red Hat lately, since the late 2010s. I also think the amount of changes and the issues with licensing here mean that more people might up and convert to Debian than before. But IDK. I also hear that more ML work is done on Debian, and yes - with the containers becoming big - less need to run any particular linux, so I could see swapping out the underlying Linux.

And from a company perspective, Red Hat has already done a big swap out from satallite to Foreman / Puppet to really pushing Ansible. Similarly, they've stopped doing oVirt in favor of cloud style OpenStack, nee OpenShift. Which is great if you're building your own cloud fabric, but not really the VMWare / HyperV competitor oVirt was which is something lots of mid size orgs need. ProxMox still seems to be going.

And for people who aren't paying for support - I imagine they have skilled in house teams that can certainly figure out Debian if they've been orchestrating CENTOS and now Alma say.
Two things.

1 - it's not as if he made an experimental unsafe submarine and then killed himself in it. It's as though he made an experimental, unsafe submarine that many people told him was unsafe and unsuitable to dive at that depth at a minimum, but really unsafe to dive at any depth and then told people that it was safe and good to go, and then sold seats on it before even properly testing it.

2 - they have caused the taxpayers of several countries to foot the bill of this hugely expensive rescue operation, with no plan or way to pay it back.

It's not right for innocent people to bear the burden of this person's irresponsible negligence, both with their lives in the case of the passengers, and with their tax dollars in the case of us taxpayers
Yeah I was getting worried there for a minute wondering when I'd start to see it, but I've got the /48 setup and can also confirm no issues yet on my end.
Doesn't mean they increased the "level of safety" by a margin that was actually necessary to make it safe.

And completing extensive further testing doesn't necessarily invalidate or address the prior criticisms raised.
Sure I get that. A hole will be like a water cutter.

I was thinking more like a screw with resistance along the threads such that the pressure goes from 5800 psi to say 20 psi at the last thread or whatever. Then you might get a stable leak.

I don’t think people should be too surprised that the news cycle doesn’t exactly reward the biggest tragedies. Not to mention the fact that it only became such a big story largely because so many people were dunking on the company/passengers. Unless you’re suggesting we should be spending more time dunking on dead refugees?
