> consumers and delivery drivers who will mostly pay for it

The players: restaurants, drivers (current and former), platforms and consumers. Former drivers, those who don’t make the new cut, will lose. Drivers who stay on will gain. Looking at leverage, consumers are less likely to bear the burden than restaurants. Given the new fixed cost of operating a delivery platform, the incumbents’ threat of competition from new entrants is reduced; that will help them.

If I were to make predictions, I’d expect to see some consolidation among the platforms with the winners squeezing restaurants and consumers waiting longer more than paying a higher price. (It is notable restaurants have virtually no representation in this debate.) The pie will be smaller. But the platforms’ role in it will be more stable and secure.
This looks good! It has not reached my distribution yet, I hope this refreshed UI will be more convenient than the current one (which has done its job for the past 20 years but has some quirks like not having a straightforward way to follow a mail thread to my knowledge - well, it has but all the mails need to be in the same folder but sent mails are in the sent folder and received mails are in the received messages folder)
Here are some more detailed images (mind the clear key caps with inlays): https://www.retromobe.com/2019/10/sharp-mz-80k-1979.html

The keys can be a bit "squeaky", though, and, at times, I find the cursor keys annoying (which is due to training and muscle memory from other keyboards). I once wanted to quickly edit a Christmas themed image, using all those fancy graphics characters, and kept failing over the cursor keys all the time… :-)

But, yes, it could have been a fresh start all over. There were even a few alphabetically ordered ortholinear keyboards (especially on the pocket computer variety, since you wouldn't touch type on those anyway), as manufacturers thought this may be more accessible and mechanical constraints didn't apply anymore.

Also, worth a visit, the entire article at oldcomputr.com, showing the assembly with all the various components: https://www.oldcomputr.com/sharp-mz-80k-1978/ ! (This also mentions, "It’s a bit hard to get used to the keyboard." :-) )
Prior to channels, we'd add a ConcurrentQueue<T> from System.Collections.Concurrent to the service then expose a public method that enqueued an instance of T. Controllers then received the singleton instance of the services through DI and would invoke that method to add a job item to the service's queue.

Obviously, that created a direct coupling. You could set up an interface and have the controller consume the interface instead, but it was still a coupling in practice. I suppose you register the public method as a delegate or something instead and just inject the delegate, but that's a bit hacky to me, and I think my juniors would find it confusing.

It is more than event routing, you do not really want for any client to be able to claim any combination, without any further insight by either compositor or user.

Ideally, what you want, is for the client expose a set of (described) actions, with suggested key bindings. Users can then enable / disable / change the bindings in some central place, which would also take care about collisions, reserved global keybinding or reserved local keybinding (key shortcuts, that are always supposed to be available to the focused app).
The z88dk toolchain supports the MZ-80K as a target. So you could write new software in C or any other language that can output C code.
Having made the flip the other way, I highly recommend listening to your instincts.

Neither side is objectively better or worse, but having experience in both has changed how I approach problems.
You could cook a meal for a family of 5 for ~ $20, likely way less. Unless its pizza, sounds like it'd be closer to $100+. Using these delivery apps feels akin to buying a bottle of water at a concert or alcohol from a hotel mini bar. One of the biggest rip offs out there.
Yes, but of course it is debatable how relevant realizability is in practice; we have long history of using displays that have significantly smaller gamuts than whatever nominal colorspace being used.

Yeah. I had a Cyrix CX486DX4 up until 2000 when my family got an AMD 1000 MicronPC (aka Crucial) running Windows ME. That thing was SUCH a headache until I upgraded it to Windows 2000. My parents were ALWAYS mad at me for “breaking the computer” but that was just the natural state of ME, it would just stop working after a couple weeks.

In conjunction with the video from 'dkbrk below, I'd recommend "The Unreality of Pro Wrestling"[1] as an excellent introduction into the ongoing storylines, etc., that WWE has on top of the 'super-human "stunts"'. Certainly opened my eyes and definitely shows that the winner isn't a "moot point" but plotted and planned well in advance to keep the soap opera going (and indeed, that storyline continued right up to a couple of weeks ago when they did Money In The Bank in London.)

Nice updates from Thunderbird team.

But will E-mail on the whole ever get features like other chat platform? Even conversation view is not good on the eye. Quoting is ugly in long Email body.

Maybe only protocols are getting updated!? I think email is only still here because its a form of identification.

Most companies and groups are moving towards Discord, Slack, etc. for a proper discussion.

Not sure exactly what you’re arguing here but I think I disagree quite a bit.

I’ve been lifting for about six months, and I think this is the longest stretch I’ve been able to go without getting bored with it, because I’m at a gym this time and have access to a ton of equipment.

Variety can really make a difference, and some will say it’s good for your muscles anyways to do different exercises that are targeting the same muscle groups.

And the point of apps like this is that it makes it easy to say “today is push day, push is chest and triceps, show me chest and triceps exercises.” What’s wrong with a novice saying that?
Could have been worse. It could have been "by reading this license, you agree to its terms" which is essentially what website EULAs do.
I was never a fan of these maps for timezone selection anyway. MacOS clung onto it a bit longer, but they were too small - some areas are too dense with timezones and using the pointer to select an area on the map always seemed to get it wrong.
Nobody forced them to use this business model. If it isn't profitable without exploiting workers, it was a bad idea to begin with.
But that's KDEs fault.

They want to have everything built in-house, they could join forces with Sway/WLRoots but when approached they declined.

I am fine with having multiple implementations, we don't want to get stuck with a defacto standard, but don't blaming KDEs choices on Wayland.
Calendar in the mail client is very useful since invitations are sent by mail. You click accept, the recipient knows you did and the event is added to your calendar.

But indeed if you don't use it it does not get in the way, which is perfect.
I think destructive/high-consequence flows is the one case where dialogs are prudent. Dialogs add a lot of friction and extra actions, but that is sometimes a good thing (nobody ever complained about a poolside not being slippery enough).

There's a reason why the emergency services requires you to enter three digits when dialing. Sure it would be a smoother flow if you only had to press a single button or dial '9', but you'd also get a lot more butt dials.
Seems pretty interesting at first sight! The Readme is well written. Good look on that!
Sadly, I'm one of those that needs air to live, so if my air-intake pathways get even semi-blocked it can make me fall unconscious, and it is just unpleasant in general. I do clean my nose in private though, never in public.
Meta note about the announcement:

> contextual options based on the tab or Space that is currently active

I find it quite amusing that two whitepace keys/characters, tab and space, are also used to refer to areas of the UI in thunderbird :-)
> it sounds like they might be able to under this new law

If the apps are idiots, perhaps. In practice, this law basically all but these companies to employ a fleet of drivers.
> more and more useful software drops X support and goes Wayland-only.

I can't think of any such case, any example?

Besides even if X support is dropped by an application, 12to11 - or any other Wayland implementation that runs under X - will keep it working. It isn't like most programs use X directly anyway.
There was also OS/2 which was co-created by Microsoft and IBM as the DOS replacement. At IBM’s insistence it was designed to target the 286 protected mode.

Bill Gates grumbled a lot about that, he would have preferred to wait to use the 386 instead. And he was right because no interesting applications emerged for OS/2 1.x.
(My memory is that we kept on influx including 1.7, but it was a while ago now so memory might be fuzzy)

I guess influx perf and efficiency is really depending a lot on your data shape then :)

Our experience was that performance dropped off a cliff if you had too much data, too much tagset cardinality, or else your query was too broad. And when it failed, it lost data.

In fact, it lost data generally. When we were replacing it we dual-ran an ACID DB version (which, with tokudb, was fast enough to keep up (although we didn't index every tag column)). So we did a diff and discovered just small random holes in the influx data that we'd never noticed before.

We had other considerations when we went mysql, as in, we were already using it. If shopping for a standalone solution to start a new project on, I'm thinking Timescale is the go-to these days?
Just jumping in to say I'm also incredibly happy to see this change (and the other expected improvements).

Thunderbird currently looks dated, and I'm glad to see it brought into the 2020s.

Sometimes current users can be dismissive of UI changes, so it's good to see fellow users who are happy. Moreover, let's not forget the new users, who were previously put off by the dated UI.

They are moving for instant discussions, but not for proper discussions.

Instant messaging is the death of knowledge. Emails aren't much better IMO, but there's still a bigger feeling of permanency and availability than IM.
The error there may be in extremism: relativism means that something is relative, not necessarily everything is relative.
Entropy drives the creation of life?
It seems like this is the outcome of this line of reasoning.
There should be a lot of life out there.
And then the reason we haven't seen any, is because of distance and time, and maybe we are early.

EDIT

Perhaps I'm downvoted because the linked article states the opposite, that Entropy doesn't lead to life. Because life is 'ordered'

I had veritasium on the brain. The veritasium video more clearly shows that life as 'ordered', is a very rare configuration of atoms, and thus 'higher' entropy.

And because entropy always increases, and life increases entropy, that maybe entropy leads to life.

Others linked it, here again since it is worth watching because it somewhat either contradicts, or highlights the gaps in the linked submittal.

Absolutely not. One thing happens because of a set of physical laws that govern the universe. These laws were discovered due to a massive number of observations of multiple phenomena by a huge number of individuals over (literally) thousands of years, leading to a standard model that is broadly comprehensive and extremely robust in its predictions of millions or possibly even billions of seperate events daily.

The other thing we have a small number of observations of happening over the last 50 or 60 years but mostly the last 5 years or so. We know some of the mathematical features of the phenomena we are observing but not all and there is a great deal going on that we don't understand (emergence in particular). The things we are seeing contradict most of the academic field of linquistics so we don't have a theoretical basis for them either outside of the maths. The maths (linear algebra) we understand well, but we don't really understand why this particular formulation works so well on language related problems.

Probably the models will improve but we can't naively assume this will just continue. One very strong result we have seen time and time again is that there seems to be an exponential relationship between computation and trainingset size required and capability. So for every delta x increase we want in capability, we seem to pay (at least) x^n (n>1) in computation and training required. That says at some point increases in capability become infeasible unless much better architectures are discovered. It's not clear where that inflection point is.

> Commercial Use means corporate use intended for commercial advantage, monetary compensation or profit-making, including but not limited to e.g. offering ownCloud Infinite Scale based software-as-a-service (SaaS), platform-as-a-service (PaaS) or any other types of hosted services to a third party. Whereas scenarios in which such a commercial advantage is intended to be realized indirectly by leveraging ownCloud Infinite Scale, e.g. as a cost-free add-on or as an embedded value-add proposition for supporting monetarization of other products or services or the like constellations, is also considered as Commercial.

If my reading of this is right -- this basically boils down to "You cannot host this for commercial use for someone else. You may self-host this in a commercial setting for your own business" -- basically an Anti-AWS clause to protect against the ElasticSearch/OpenSearch thing.

That must be right. I got let go from my last job because I refused to use 5+ different instant messaging software and instead stick with email. In hindsight, I guess I should have been wiser.

> If it isn't profitable without exploiting workers

There are two classes of gig workers whose interests are at odds: the ersatz full time and true part time. The former, whom worker rights activists highlight, is being exploited. The latter, which companies like to talk about, benefit from a high-flexibility additional source of income.

The ratio of the former to the latter increases with density; there is more work to fill the hours. Below a certain level of density, the former cannot exist. It’s absolutely possible that the optimum for New York is not the same as in rural Kentucky, where outlawing the odd job an otherwise stay-at-home parent takes to earn extra cash does more harm than good.
At this point, whenever something says "maximize your freedoms" and does not explain further, I think it is adding spyware or otherwise restricting my choices. Decades of US policy doublespeak, I guess...
If you're new to lifting, your form is likely to be terrible, it's easy to do some damage to your lower back and knees.
I agree with most of your points, save for alt-tab. macOS app and window management is completely different from Windows, and trying to use it like Windows only ends up hurting.

Minimizing a window in macOS takes it out of the working set. You can't quick switch to a minimized window, and it doesn't even show on Mission Control. You have to click the minimized window in the dock to bring it back. In short, minimizing a window is not just a visibility setting, but a workflow choice.

And now they've released 3.0.0 in their cloud, which they claim is backwards compatible, but lets see.

I sometimes wonder if vendors realize that they put their customers into a buying mode when they do this, when our options are:

- Upgrade to the new version of product X.

- Change to vendor or tooling completely as we're already changing everything.

We might pick another system if we feel like it is more stable.

It's crazy the last email blast was ~6 weeks ago.

And the shutdown isn't even a month / quarter end, so seems even less like a billing cycle thing.

There's so many more mature ways to do a graceful paid service shutdown. Disable reads first so people get errors & contact support. Then disables writes as well. Somewhere a few weeks later you can consider deleting data.

As others have said, I've worked at megacorps with internal systems that had more mature migrations than this. Honestly I have run internal apps at sub-1000 employee firms where we did various forms of scream tests and soft deletes before MONTHS later, even daring to delete data on disk.

Ask HN: How to sell small volume of European products on Amazon
Short story is, I bootstrapped 250 units of a physical product I was attempting to sell in the EU. I was planning to fulfill and ship orders myself, and due to bootstrapping and the low volume I started out with, I didn't get around to registering a business entity. The project has been a money-sink, and I've decided to shift focus to a different project ant not to scale it further. For personal reasons I moved out of the EU so now I can't fulfill orders manually either. I wanted to send the existing products to a fulfillment center and automate the sales, but all of the fulfillment centers I've seen require an EU business entity, and you can't really use them as a private person. It seems that starting an EU business entity requires a lot of paperwork and paying an accountant on a monthly basis. I'm a dual US/EU citizen, another option would be to send my inventory to the US, where it's both easier to register a business entity, and possible to use fulfillment centers as a private person. But then I have to pay customs taxes to get the inventory to the US and my most interested customers who are in the EU will have to pay high shipping costs and customs taxes again to get the product back to the EU.

So, the TL;DR of my question is: how can I automate order fulfillment in the EU for 250 units of a product without registering a business entity? Is there such a thing as a third party seller who would sell the products on my behalf? How would I go about finding that?

For context: my EU citizenship and inventory are currently in Hungary, and the product is a niche card game.
