I just setup Obsidian a couple days ago and have been using https://github.com/vrtmrz/obsidian-livesync which seems to work ok. I'm curious if SyncThing would be preferable. How does it handle conflicts? How often does it sync? Does it drain the battery on mobile if it syncs too often?
At first I was confused as I only ever saw Formula 1 races, where tires are replaced at every pit-stop, so info gained would be minimal, but it seems Formula E stipulates you can only use 1 set of tires for the entire race making the info strategic.
Where there are existing standards:

* Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, KDE, Gnome, etc... all have existing human interface guidelines, and those should be respected if you are making software for those platforms.

* For the web, PWAs and electron-ish apps, I'd love to see guidelines that help developers understand where you should not go: i.e. disable zoom, left-click, etc... and then jump into the usual discussion about layout, widgets and so on.

> Like men dont also have caregiving activites.

Data has shown they do less of it and society has been setup this way. Women have been giving up their career - not because they want to but because that's what society and their family pressured them into.

Data has also shown men's view of what counts as domestic work is vastly different from that of women. Sadly a lot of men only do 1/2 the job.

This is gonna be really funny when Meta launches Threads.

Mastodon is already in a froth over whether we absolutely without question block all Meta instances from the Federation, or whether we should leave the door open for known bad actors and give them a chance at collecting all our data and ruining this too.

Adoption will be a torrent in a moment, and most likely a lot of the current users will be on a splinter Federation, much like we're already splintered from Gab.

I can't speak for everyone, but I think I speak for most of us when I say that we like it exactly like it is, cause right now it feels better than any other social thing I have used on the internet, going right back to irc.

I don't use a password manager. You shouldn't, either, probably, unless you want to share passwords with a group or something.

I have a file of hints which are only meaningful to me. Even if a malefactor got hold of the file, it wouldn't help them. (no, I'm not going to give examples; if you can't think of some combinations of characters that only you can remember, then fine, use a password manager). I'm always thinking of new ones, too.

You don't need a unique one for every site, either. Having 15 or 20 that you choose at random means that an invalidated one doesn't affect everything you do.

Occasionally, the Hint file has an actual gibberish password with no hint, where I have to copy/paste it. I think this is fine once in a while.

All I really have to remember is the password for the place where that file is stored, and my email's. Often it happens that my stored hint doesn't work (maybe I forgot to update it), but every site has a Forgot Password link.
I _think_ this was sarcasm, but...

Not as far as I know. Full-size SUVs used to be classed as trucks and (were?) exempt from many safety tests and standards. They used to have the worst safety ratings, actually, despite mass. Modern engineering and production with multi-material crash zones also means the mass is not necessary.

Plus, smaller cars don't kill everyone involved in the accident outside of your car.

People are just like "my car is bigger than yours", aka super-size me.
> People have needed to take care of children since forever and remote work is pretty new.

In the past that meant women had to give up on their career and/or the children was sent to a child care.

Remote has opened up other options.
Two differences between weather and AQI forecast:

- AQI strongly varies with local human activities, e.g. a coal power plant in between the 2 places 100 miles appart.

- temporal and hardly predictable human activities, e.g. a chem industry without good attenuation system that boost its production to fill a special command. Or an attenuation system that breaks.
My 1Password has 1000 passwords/license keys/ssh keys/api keys stored for me, along with the associated username + 2fa code. There's no way I'm going to be able to remember more than a handful of those.

> And why would you even trust a cloud based product.

1Password's security model sounds pretty reasonable to me. The convenience of having my Passwords backup and synced to my devices is worth the tradeoff in security in my case.

As a guy, now that I've been working remotely for a few years I don't plan on taking a role that involves going into an office on the regular unless there's a massive comp jump involved. The time, money, and sanity that gets spent on commuting 5 days a week is undervalued to a stunning degree and regardless of line of work, should be compensated.
Thanks for your perspective, and kudos on the article, impressive work!

So it is a matter of lack of support and general tooling around it. Anyone interested in the technology needs to write support for each individual tech stack and infrastructure to run it. The amount of complex work and the scarcity of people knowledgeable enough to do it is a huge hurdle.

Whereas Docker came around at a time when the low-level building blocks were already in place in Linux. Containers were already widely used in the industry, but each company had their own tooling around them. Docker made this technology much easier to use, which in turn helped define the standards that we use today.

So I'm still hopeful that something similar will happen eventually with unikernels. There's been a lot of work in improving the tooling around it, as your company has done, adding support for various tech stacks, optimizing hypervisors to run them efficiently, etc., so hopefully in a few years a tool that greatly improves the UX will be built, and an industry standard will emerge.

I think open source is a crucial part for this to happen. BTW, Nanos looks very cool!
IG is evil. So many small businesses seem to mostly have Instagram. And you can't effectively browse without signing up, the sign up will decide you're not real and lock your account, etc.

They definitely attempt to detect frequent visits and circumvention of their walls to do harder blocks after. When they decided my account should be locked every visit to a business page started 404ing or something similar.
>The team consisted of an engineering manager, an engineer, a designer, an APM, and me.

I feel for that lone engineer with 4 people breathing down the back of his neck.
There is an element of ponzi because none of the actors have an interest to break the cycle. Mutual hallucination might be a better term though.

Like you would think the asset buyers would have an incentive to stop holding the loans and the whole thing would collapse, but because the buyer are investing with other peoples money they are also incentivized to keep the cycle going.
The people whose money is eventually going to be lost have no way to stop this because the money is either in a pension fund or they aren’t knowledgeable enough to understand the issue

It's not that big of a risk to be honest. People did it all the time before the internet. Some people are not pathologically risk adverse and might even enjoy being surprised.
Most people don't have a $1000 iphone, which is even more problematic, because if you have a cheaper $3-400 phone, that $99 replacement would be very expensive.

Yeah, based on the other comments here I think I have quite a different view than most. To me, trad climbing vs free soloing seems like riding a bike with or without a helmet - it’s the same sport, just with different levels of safety equipment. But it seems like that is a qualitative difference to most people, which is interesting.
Yes, "The user (syadmin) doesn't touch /usr, except /usr/local", where compiled in applications reside with full path so /usr/local/{bin,sbin,share,...}.

If you're deploying an especially big application, you may also prefer /opt/$APPNAME/{bin,etc,usr,...} (A full filesystem tree, basically).

We manage a fleet of systems at work, and I don't remember editing or touching a file under /usr, unless the period I was developing .deb or .rpm packages to deploy on said fleet.

There are many written and unwritten rules in Linux world, and sometimes people disregard or ignore these rules so blatantly, so I can't understand whether the post I'm replying to is a sarcasm or irony.
LA at least gets a lot of its food from Mexico. Most of the farms in that region are for specialty crops that get exported anyways. Like almonds. I like almonds, but most people don’t live on them.

But the point isn’t to get rid of the farms, just that LAs water usage as a city is tiny in comparison to California’s agricultural water usage in general.
Definitely. How could you not? Even w/ auto-complete/CoPilot coding is never as fast as thought, especially when mapping out broad outlines of an implementation.

Besides, test-first development is inherently writing pseudocode where you write MagicFunction() and then TestMagicFunction() and iterate to flesh out both.

Also, who doesn't write a first pass of some code and then drops a comment that says /* handle special cases x, y and z here */ for later?

All of that is pseudocode.
ps wxa | grep <cmd> # or pgrep
strace -f -f -e trace=file <cmd> | grep -v '-1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)$'

IIRC there's some way to filter ENOENT messages with strace instead of grep?

It’s not just you. Twitter has done this to me, when they assumed I was a spammer. Made me verify extremely difficult captchas that were intended not to verify me but to annoy me so I would give up.
I still use my licensed 1Password version from like 10 years ago. I share passwords over Dropbox to my other computers and I cut and paste passwords. It’s not hard at all and I don’t have to pay a subscription.
As a sister comment says, the least bad automated option I have found is going to the Play Games app, scrolling to the bottom, and filtering by Paid, No Adds and No IAP. You can also filter by genre.

But to be honest, the very few mobile games I have found in the last few years have been through asking in forums, saying what I like, and getting answers from humans.

Google docs can only represent a subset of the document formatting and features in markdown (yes, there are html literals in markdown, but even then it isn't enough). Markdown could be an import/export format... but I can't see it working well with the Docs editor.
IMO, automatic DI frameworks were a big mistake. An idea that looks useful at the time, but actually leads to spaghetti mess code that is harder to maintain than it would be without any automatic DI.
You can mount Drive to a drive or mountpoint and edit it with a local tool.

You can style the document in some other form of markup.

You can use the tools given to produce the result you want.

It strikes me as modern cargo-culting to expect cloud providers like Google to cater to niche crowds. We already know they don't care very much about the long tail. If Drive isn't supporting markdown, it's pretty obvious by now that it is not a priority for them.

And the tone of the title on here is pretty damn presumptuous. It's like new gamers complaining that some new game doesn't come with photo mode, cloud save, 100% customizable clothing, etc, all these optional things that used to be ancillary but are now somehow a requirement.
Android is almost as responsive as things like that. Linux is good, sometimes, windows seems better.

1GB programs are rarely instant but that's usually just the price for very complex functionality if it's too interconnected to load parts of it on demand.
This feels like what you'd come up with if you wanted to minimize the EV advantage. Edward Tufte would not approve.

They had so much faith in their infographic they added the text "Production emissions for battery EVS are ~40% higher than hybrid and combustion vehicles".

They could have added similar text to the usage or total section, but didn't.

Ask HN: Damn Vulnerable Web App alternative for web devs?
I was wondering if web developers has something similar to DVWA(Damn Vulnerable Web App) where the app has most concepts of needed in web development implemented?

Asking the question in another way, is there any working web apps made for educational purposes only, where they have most common features(ORM, Caching, Error Handling, Form Validation, Redirection, Routing, Streaming, Middlewares, Sessions, Logging, Uploading, APIs, Authentication, Authorization, Rate limiting, Versioning, Testing, Mailing, ...) implemented

Edit: Something like this https://github.com/shadcn/taxonomy where the author tries to implement as much of a framework's features as possible. is there a directory where can I find repos like this?

> In a ponzi scheme, money is deliberately directed to early entrants to cover the conscious absence of any mechanism to produce actual value.

I don’t think the “deliberate” part is particularly important. It sounds like you disagree. There’s a whole discussion to be had here about mens rea, and that discussion is important in the context of criminal justice, but I think it’s less important when discussing systemic problems because you need a different toolset (besides intent) to discuss problems with economic systems.
Do you think that could be addressed by certification or curation? For example, an org that reviews mobile games and gives them a stamp if they’re not exploitative.

Maybe somebody will start a “real games” App Store on the other side of all this anti trust stuff.
I think what makes this a "fuck you" pattern is the fact that you are given a "teaser" of the content before being forced to log in.

Like, if IG forced you to login to see anything, you might dislike that, but it wouldn't feel manipulative.
Twitter has a different ‘fuck you pattern’ when you are trying to sign up a new account and they believe you are a spammer. They will force you through never ending captchas that are not meant to verify you, but annoy you until you give up.
How hard would it be for a company to start manufacturing small, barebones cars, compliant with safety and emissions, 4 seat, 4 door harchback and a 2 door version? Barebones meaning single/double din radio, hand crank windows, no cameras.

Oh and if I may, no CVT, and made for easy access to parts. Oh and a transmission fluid dipstick. Oooh and a cheaper manual version.

Selling something like that for..say 10k? Less maybe?

I guess it won't work since it's competing with the second hand market..but people would like a new car, feels more reliable.

Oh it'd be so nice.

Edit: Oh and put the oil filter UNDER the engine, so when you remove it the engine isn't covered in oil.

Yes, this is a thing. But the key difference there is... that's being done ... in user space.

We live in a world where just last week Google turned off io_uring access on a pile of machines, and that's only "executing" restricted sets of operations. Executable code in kernel = big giant target painted on back.
It's not just stupid, it's demeaning to the audience. Be like Intel/BMW and give your models numbers that roughly correlate to the performance/size/features.

Sony/Apple/Samsung have this one solid - just release the next semver and market the hell out of it. Don't make me confused when I'm thinking about paying you money. Note: even the ones that aren't "on the version treadmill" do poorly: "iPhone mini" vs. "Samsung Fold" etc are niche products and exist to essentially sell the mainline item.
It's going to be hard for FB to get people to download yet another app to see short-form posts. And early indications are that it won't be federated at the start.
Exactly. For the last few years of my Mother’s life she had her iPad with her everywhere. Given her failing eyesight and arthritis it was the only thing she could use and she loved it. She only did Facebook, scrabble and email but that kept her connected. And I was delighted when she ditched the PC so I no longer had to worry about what virus it was going to get next. I agree with others that much more could be done about accessibility, but picking on what for many is the best solution yet is a bit weird. And anyone who has had to be ‘informal IT’ for a non-tech savvy user will know the appeal of an appliance.
This is a minor thing which I found useful- The "help" functions of all my bash-defined functions report which file they're defined in (such as: `echo "This function is defined in ${BASH_SOURCE[0]}"`). If I could do something similar for my environment-defined values (hmmm, now I'm thinking...), I would. (I could create a function that tracks at least the changes _I'VE_ made to these values, which could help...)

Can you elaborate on the twitter bot that finger prints?
The really interesting statistic in this article is the dramatic drop in “hours per day spent caring for children” for women while the number for men stayed relatively flat. Interesting for a number of reasons:

1) The numbers for men and women are much closer together now which narrows (but does not close) a gap that has existed for hundreds or even thousands of years. Would be amazing to see it close completely.

2) If I’m reading this correctly women are doing less childcare but men aren’t doing more … so are children being cared for less? That seems impossible as a consequence of remote work, which provides much more time for at-home tasks like childcare.
I've started watching Regular Car Reviews on youtube recently - he waxes poetic about those cars, it's just beautiful to hear. Really was a nice time.
Expensive? It’s like 50-70€ to swap an iPhone battery and you get a warranty for the battery.

There’s no way a user-swappable battery will be cheaper than that.
