This happens every year in professional sports leagues in the US. For a recent example from the NBA, John Wall got a $40M salary from the Houston Rockets for the 2021-22 season and didn't play a single game.
Leads that come pre-tinned have to have a compatible solder on them. When you buy components now, the suppliers declare whether they're RoHS (lead-free) or not. You can't easily buy eutectic (lead bearing) tinned parts anymore because it's easier to have the global supply chain conform to the EU regulations. Note that military parts often come with gold plated leads which you can use your choice of solder on. You can't easily buy such things anymore from commercial suppliers.
With Reddit API changes, and now this I think the universe is sending us a signal to start being productive
Sue under the ada, no idea why in all of this hemming and hawing only Reddit is willing to put their money where their mouth is.

I get that reddit doesnt have a physical location, but it certainly facilitates access to public accommodations. Argue a new online-only definition of public accommodation. The world has certainly changed since Robles vs Domino's. Argue that all of the brand-representing subreddits are themselves accesses to public accommodations.

There's an old phrase that says "It's all over but the shoutin'." That's what this feels like.
Indeed, I thought HN of all places would understand that the last 15 years were a bubble of zero interest rates. Now, companies have to be profitable or die.
This isn't really what I'm getting at and I don't really agree with the characterization. Saving memories and sharing with people you know is totally fine. That's very different from, e.g., monetizing your kids through short-form video.
How does the performance compare to wasmtime or wasmer?
>That's 6.25 tweets/minute if you did literally nothing but scroll through twitter all day long for 16 hours straight. Please explain how that makes the site "unusable" unless of course you are a non-human bot scraping site content.

Are you kidding? 6,000 tweets is literally like 10 minutes of scrolling through twitter. You're assuming each tweet to be worthy of being read. They aren't. You scroll through hundreds of them to find good threads.
From: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liebeck_v._McDonald%27s_Restau...

> McDonald's current policy is to serve coffee at 176–194 °F (80–90 °C)

> Similarly, as of 2004, Starbucks sells coffee at 175–185 °F (79–85 °C), and the executive director of the Specialty Coffee Association of America reported that the standard serving temperature is 160–185 °F (71–85 °C).

That 9 degree gap between McDonalds and Starbucks isn't very meaningful since both those lower bounds are more than hot enough to cause third degree burns. 155F coffee can cause third degree burns to children and the elderly within 1 second of contact: [PDF] https://www.regionalonehealth.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/02...
Since Amazon & Microsoft own the hosting infrastructure, could they not cook up a Twitter/Reddit clone without having to rely on ads?
I see login. That's the reason why?
I like tildes much more than lemmy, to be honest.
The world is an impersonal euphemism for human culture. All things apart from physics and human nature are dentable.
I'm sure advertisers are overjoyed...
This is one of those terrible studies that looks at every disease under the sun and inevitably something comes back with a positive association (even though it's probably just statistical noise) and they publish that single result. Take it with a huge grain of salt.

Looking at their other study using this same data, they found an INCREASE in major cardiovascular events among people with lower-than-average BMI with Vit D supplementation which was statistically significant: https://academic.oup.com/ajcn/article/115/5/1300/6496028

In other words: if an HN reader clicks on this thread and has the question "should I take Vitamin D?", the answer is: no one knows, and this study likely can't inform your decision.
For 16 hours straight with no breaks? Your phone's battery would die before that was exceeded.
That's not the same thing - one is redistributing the API (which is what we're talking about here) and the other is implementing an API.
Also many so-called paper or cardboard products are partially or entirely made from plastics and not wood pulp.
Interesting to imagine how a Mars colony might be run under this sort of leadership.
I'm not downvoting, but fish free food is higher in meat? "Succulent Chicken" Same problem, animal farming is disastrous for the environment https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pet_food and it concern a minority of pets (and it's because of allergies, not for environmental reasons)

Pets should eat insect-based food, and there should be less pets, that's I think a better direction
What's weird to me is posting any of this stuff to social media. It's great to have family photos with the great grandparents, but why does it have to go on Facebook?
The centralized platforms seem doomed to reach a point where they’re squeezing as much cash out of users as they can while users provide their content for free. If we need to create multiple accounts to fight back against enshittification, I think that’s a fairly minor downside for increased competition.
It seems the limit does not apply to Quotes and Liked tab on users profiles.
Didn't help that Jack jumped ship back to Twitter
I'm surprised Paul gets upvoted so much, no matter what platitude he serves up. His writing is good for a software engineer, but doesn't hold a candle to a capable journalist or writer. Basically it feels like you're reading a documentation page about the last idea he's had in the shower.
With a more normal 100 tweets viewed per minute, a verified user would hit the limit in an hour, which is quite low for the kind of power user that would purchase twitter blue.
It's unfortunate that when a company DOES chose to release old software, the entire revision history is thrown out due to processes like that. In the software world, this probably doesn't matter too much, but video games can go through massive changes during development. But it also depends on factors like if game assets were even stored in version control in the first place.
Actually it seems to be 900 detail views. So it is 15 minutes.

Marriage is about exclusive sex, you can't make an analogy with that.

It wasn't me asked, but I personally wouldn't mind my exclusive masseur having sex with someone, but I would mind if he massaged someone else.
That description sounds great but the docs are less compelling. The integration is you can write a C++ file that exposes individual functions to lisp, https://clasp-developers.github.io/clbind-doc.html.

There doesn't seem to be any way to feed C++ headers into clasp and get out template instantiations accessible to lisp. It looks like SWIG or pybind but you write the shims yourself, and it's function pointer based so templates are wrapped one instantiation at a time.

Garbage collection in the docs is a one paragraph stub which suggests you're on your own for lifetime management across the languages.

Cool thing to exist. Seamless interoperation is either overselling it or the docs are out of date.
There are no systems without the individuals that make it and propagate it. In this case it’s the parents who want to show strangers their children’s private moments.
It may be retribution. Maybe a yacht propeller maimed or killed an important orca, an elder or a child, and now they want retribution. Or maybe it's just a fun thing to do, or a teenager right of passage thing. Or some combination. It's fun to speculate!
> Compare it with TV though, which is what youtube is; nobody blocked ads because they couldn't, there was no escaping them unless you physically exit the room.

VCR & fast forward.

> In my country that worked, because ads were neat 5 minute blocks every 15 odd minutes, but in the US it seems every few minutes there's an ad interrupting - but they're too short to tune out / do something else.

The US television ads switched to that format to make them more obnoxious and harder to fast forward over.

This battle between attention spam and users thinking that's obnoxious has been going on for decades.
The devs should produce passing tests, not spend hours clicking around in their app like a QA person.
"Temporarily" my ass. It took me literally less than half an hour to reach the ridiculous 600 tweet limit.

Today has just been bonkers. First Reddit actually being dumbass enough to kill off the third party clients, now Musk is killing off Twitter.
If you compare an 0xide rack with a standard combo of Dl380s, Nexus switches, netapp filers and Vmware licences, and look at the specs page - “ 1024TB of raw storage in NVMe” - there’s no way this is tens of thousands and I’d be a bit surprised if it was in the hundreds either.
I worked in AutoCAD Support during these days. We hated the dongles ("hardware locks") as much as our customers. We eventually got rid of them. I haven't used any Autodesk product in decades so I don't know what they do nowadays.
6.25 tweets/minute is nothing. The feed generates a ton of junk (ads, redundant QTs, straight up noise) so there are certainly periods where I will scroll past 6 junk tweets in 1-2 seconds.
> 3.) calling a function pushes everything onto the stack

This is a very C-centric view of it.

In FP, sometimes they're functions, sometimes they're closures. Sometimes they're fully applied and sometimes they're partially applied.

You're probably on the heap, not the stack for two reasons: tail recursion, and variables very often outliving the return.
Yeah no, people are aware of the stupid excuse.
> Calling I/o side effects makes FP seem hopelessly academic.

But "imperative" has such bad mouthfeel that I had to swear it off altogether.
How much XP does it take to become a rockstar coder, Philipp? Is CEO a class we can spec into or a race?

This misapplied market research that tries to make jobs "cool" (upskill!) gives me powerful Ballmer "I love this company" vibes.
The most secure place to keep it is on your person *under* your clothing. Waterproof protection would be a good idea if you're in a warm climate.

It most certainly can be done--I wore mine basically 24/7 for a year. The only time it wasn't under my clothing was for border crossing or bathing--and in the latter case it almost always was under a traveling companion's clothing. No close calls--but someone else in the group wasn't so cautious and hers was snatched. Fortunately, the thief wasn't sophisticated, kept the cash and dumped everything else quickly.
To those who are blindly accepting this supposed reason, the answer is simple: engineering.
There are also far fewer creators/posters and far more value per post, especially when you consider that YouTube carries a lot of commercial content (music & music videos)

Would I pay for ad-free access to a giant catalogue of music (even though I can use an ad blocker) or to support talented people putting hours into composing and editing content I like? Sure, why not. Would I pay to see people's random short-form thoughts? Hell no.
Would be a pity if so, such a promising technology where you finally have a chance to own your content and connections
An “AI Manhattan Project” sounds like “SKYNET” with extra words.
Yeah, I also think having the option to censor communities in specific is a good way to do it. So you could just choose not to host /c/hatefulcommunity. I'd imagine blocklists and community reputation systems would be created much like what exists with e-mail.
You learn so much faster, it can be the same cost to get to a certain level as group classes, just faster.

If you're in the US and what you're learning is something that can be done online, then things are extremely in your favor. I've hired a Spanish tutor in Colombia and a math teacher in Serbia to great effect.
That’s right! You can consider the user input a source of randomness even if it can only take two values, like heads or tails.
I see absolutely no examples in that link there where they assign into a register via C code, not using it anywhere else, and then assume you can read the same value back from that register in an asm() statement without declaring it as an input.
In theory, wouldn’t continuous scraping by AI farms et al put a log of this infrequent data into cache though?
I used to interpret PG's self-assured tone as wisdom. Over the years though, I've come to realize what it actually is: hubris.
There are also large differences in salaries and income across the country due to variance in cost of living. Poor in New York may be a decent wage in Gary or Biloxi.
To address extreme levels of data scraping & system manipulation, we’ve applied the following temporary limits:

- Verified accounts are limited to reading 6000 posts/day

- Unverified accounts to 600 posts/day

- New unverified accounts to 300/day

The BlackCat Cyberattack: Unraveling the Sophisticated Malvertising Scheme
In most countries, the officially suggested intake of Vitamin D per day is 800 IU.

There is a study that showed that running around naked in the sun for 30 minutes is equivalent to taking 15000 IU:

https://ar.iiarjournals.org/content/29/9/3495.long

Considering that our ancestors were doing that for more than 30 minutes per day, I wouldn't be surprised if the suggested amount of Vitamin D intake will increase in the coming years.
One correction: It’s tweets fetched via the API, not tweets actually viewed. An unattended open tab could easily bust the limit as twitter fetches more for your feed.
Funny, I wasn't even able to view the replies to the tweet.
Hopefully the data scrapers give up so that these restrictions can be lifted.
Same here. In terms or privacy it's one of the easiest things you can do to give your kids a fighting chance early on. We still do regular photo updates over a messaging app not owned by Meta.
I think the main problem is the cognitive and the technical overhead. Most users just want to use the site, they don't care about the underlying infrastructure. Federated services always have a cognitive overhead (where do I register? who do I follow) which centralised services don't have.

The real solution would be a regular, centralised service run by a non-profit.
If only Twitter had a 1:0 signal-noise ratio.
I see this as the canary in the coal mine in case our Alien Overlords™ turn up. At least we'll be able to glyph what they're saying.
Great, I wasn't even able to see the replies of the tweet
The Bank Robbers Who Are Stealing Their Own Money
The best way to learn a subject or material you're really interested in is to gain a basic understanding of it on your own, and then try to explain it to someone else who asks a lot of questions. Those questions will reveal holes in your own understanding that you'd have difficultly finding entirely on your own.

Taking a formal structured course with graded assignments (or demanding workouts etc.), under the supervision of a paid teacher is mostly useful for when you're lacking in self-discipline (which most of us are to some degree, so it is a good idea particularly to develop necessary skills in areas you aren't all that excited about).
At 100 tweets/minute they would reach the limit in an hour, wouldn't they?
This is just insane. He really wanna take this app to zero users. Can't believe there exists people who think Elon is smart.
Talk about a dishonest comment. You are literally replying to a thread in which a History Channel feature of a confirmed CGI video was used as evidence that "there are videos of" ball lightning.
Does that work? I might be in market for a new GPU if AMD had something that beats NVidia for ML (for sane price)... I can't really justify buying NVidia GPU, anything decent is too expensive.

It’s the responsibility of the parent to work on gathering their data. Not knowing any better is not the responsibility of the child, but the parent. I would accept this probably in the early days of social media, but there is mounting evidence now that parents who monetize their kids are doing it intentionally and willingly. It’s child abuse in my book.
Additionally, any wannabe CUDA replacement needs to support PTX and polyglot development, or is a non starter for lots of workloads.

Sure, it's most dependent on the age of the company/software. The older, or lower level the code, the more hacks and workaround that appear in a codebase.
This seems like a really basic problem that would have been uncovered by some basic load testing. Y’know, the kind of thing you do (in addition to penetration testing, operational prep, etc) before you let customers use it. Fundamental stuff.
> pored over

Let's change this. That's disgusting. Literally.
I mean, it’s clear the Musk overcorrected. The fact that managers were asked to name their best employees, only to then be fired and replaced by them, or that musk purposefully avoided legal obligations to pay out severance/health insurance payments (I forget the exact name)/other severance, and that the site has had multiple technical issues that make it feel like there’s no review/QA process all show that he doesn’t know what he’s doing.

He got laughed out of a Twitter call thing with lead engineers in the industry for saying he wanted to “rewrite the entire stack” and not having a definition for what he meant.

Doomed or not, Musk is terrible at just about everything he does and Twitter is no exception
The fact that even paid subscribers are limited to 6000 posts a day (seems like a lot, very much isn't if you're a remotely active user) is utterly bonkers. What other platform works like this?

Show HN: Use Reddit via JSON feeds without authentication
Hey guys,

As Reddit makes it harder to use their API, I decided to make a wrapper around their undocumented JSON feeds. This allows you to get data from Reddit without authentication. This is only suitable for getting public data. I hope this helps someone out there.

I'm also planning to make an android app via CapacitorJS using this library.

Feel free to ask questions or give feedback.

Thanks!
I've got a question for you. Some people are very carefree with their use of psychoactive drugs. I'd say nearly everyone I've ever seen post online about trying mushrooms, LSD, etc. has done it for fun (or the experience) instead of spiritual, psychological, or medicinal reasons.

What risks are they exposing themselves to? I'd hate to have a friend hurt themselves.
It’s not feedback, it’s a call out. I’m calling out your bad faith marketing practices. I’m criticizing your intentional usage of misleading fake reviews to scam people, which I see you’ve conveniently removed.
It’ll probably get worse if anything

I ran vega 64 in linux for 3-4 years, it was really nice. It also worked without bugs with proton, the 3060 I have now gives me a lot of artifacts like incorrect lightning and even X crashes once in a while.

I'm considering switching back to an AMD card due to this.
My first thought on reading this was: "I'm going to unfollow some high volume posters in that case", so they will lose some followers too.
If users can't use the platform, there's no data to scrape. Scraping problem fixed. This is a 4D chess move.
I remember some really nice macro usage.
I think that’s always been known, but the tacit agreement between users and Twitter has always been “I’ll post my content and anyone can see it, if they want to engage they make an account”. From a business perspective this feels like a big negative to me for Twitter. I’ve followed several links the last few days and been prompted to login, and nothing about those links felt valuable enough to do so.
There are only 2 types of people who are interested in pictures of kids:
1. Their friends and relatives - it's easy to share those pictures with them privately.
