(dev here) Yes, this is still the proposal that I'm planning to move forward with. It's always possible that it doesn't work out and will need to be changed, but I think it's a pretty solid start.

Just updated the docs with this info: https://docs.orbstack.dev/faq#free
Is that not what it does?
You don't think Apple will have a problem with running their OS and software on non Apple hardware? I would expect this to be "fixed" soon.
It doesn't really work that well. 15% just isn't enough of a motivator when considering the other factors at play on the inside (except for people who aren't totally broken that have kids they want to get back to or family members that might die within that window).
It does though. If it failed to rise today due to some cosmic anomaly, it would very likely fail to rise tomorrow.
Oh I would love to be able to get rid of iCloud and host my own version but I'm guessing the integration for this is not possible on iOS?
Because hotels charge 100x the rate per night, all else being equal?
Looks cool! I really like your focus on not needing a database and just using a free Vercel account to run your website. I love seeing stuff like this communicated well; gives me hope one day that I can tell some of my less-technical friends they can do that. :)

There's also the possibility that Chrome decides to bundle this CA like Firefox mobile does, which would mean the majority of users won't have a problem. From 5.0 the builtin webview is updatable too - I think it uses Chrome's engine.

That leaves other browser's such as Samsung's one which probably has the most usage, no idea if they bundle root CAs or not.

Would you mind answering how old you were when you went in?
It's certainly "a measurement", but needs to be taken in context. The first time I decided to see how far/fast I could run, I had been doing martial arts and crossfit for two years. I had never really run more than a mile before. Ended up running about 16 miles in 3 hours. The next two weeks I couldn't walk and my knees were permanently injured. So, sure, you can pass a fitness test, but that doesn't mean you can (or should) sustain it.
These blogs are wonderful. I'd read them before figuring out firecracker snapshot/restore, but wanted to say it here.

Dogma and tradition are two very different concepts. Dogma is forced down from "above" and tradition is consensual. Tradition is "organic", dogma is proscribed.

Tradition: "We chase a wheel of cheese down Coopers hill in Gloucestershire and invite severe injury, for a laugh" - won by a somewhat concussed Canadian lass this year, well done her.

https://www.theguardian.com/food/2023/may/29/woman-wins-coop...

Dogma: "This is what we believe". Here is an example - https://www.catholicnewsagency.com/resource/55423/the-four-m...

Dogma is a religious thing. Originally Catholic but seems to have spread further.

Tradition is something that is done because that is how it was done. "Was hal" - be you hale ... that's where "wassail" came from.
I dodged the draft and in partial atonement, I did some work with Operation Code, which is for vets and their spouses to learn to be techies. I did a podcast with them:

https://operationcode.org/podcast

These people are not in any way, shape, or form "dumb." A lot of them go to 4-year colleges on the GI Bill, but a few did code school. One works for Google now. Almost none of them actually saw any combat.

My favorite was Dick Sonderegger, who enlisted in the Marines during the Vietnam era. He said he wanted to fly close air support in 'Nam, and they said, "No, you're going to be a computer programmer." He never left the States.

They do yell at you in Basic Training, all of them said.
Sure. Product manager, product analysis,... they're bunch of "configurator" whose jobs is learn by heart how to config a system.

They're critical !

The issue is, their salary and their "political position" in a company is a concern. How can that "boring" role compare to a Senior Developer, or a Designer overall ?
Seems like you're misunderstanding what is being said. Life doesn't care if you have ambition or have a large family and everyone is happy. It doesn't care if you're apathetic and unhappy. It doesn't care if you have cancer or if you were cheated on. It does not care. It cannot care. Life is not sapient nor sentient. It merely is.
The only solution is to build stuff. Small, big, it doesn't matter, just do something. Soon it becomes a habit, and after a while, you have a nice portfolio of stuff.

I can give you ideas, or even invite you to work on some of my projects, but it will be best if it comes from something that you want to do.

A simple first step would be to brainstorm ideas. Write down 5 ideas of things that you could build. Then, for each one, write a paragraph of how you would accomplish it. Then throw out those that no longer interest you, add a handful of others, and repeat until you come up with something that you really want to work on.

Good luck, and have fun!
I just checked out the Home2 offerings near where I just stayed in an AirBnB. The prices are significantly higher and there are only three options (AirBnB had 25+).

So not quite there yet. :)
I’m from Haiti (living expenses are a fraction of US ones and I’m in EST), I’m also a good dev and speak English well. So, I guess it felt like hiring someone from South Florida at a bargain price.

Also I learned quickly how to avoid bad clients ;).
I've taught high school and college for more than 2 decades. Please ignore me while I rant.

Before we can fix public education, we need to admit that humans are inherently unequal. Not everyone is at the top of the class in math. It is a teacher's job to bring the kids at the bottom up as high as we can, but some of them will not get it on their first try. That is nature.

Then we need to motivate them. Stop grouping kids into math classes based on what grade they are in. That does not match the workplaces we are preparing them for. Instead, we need to group them by interests. Let me teach a class of kids who truly love cars. I'll bring an old engine in and start teaching them arithmetic, geometry, and algebra.

Let me teach a class of kids who want to be streamers and YouTubers. I'll use DSLRs and Premiere Pro to teach them arithmetic, geometry, and algebra. They will learn the same math as the future mechanics, but they will not use the same examples.

Let me teach a class of kids who love money to do the accounting for the auto shop kids.

The only problem with grouping them by ability is that most (85%) of public school students have the intellectual curiosity of tomatoes. They love only app games and music. They are vegetables. The fix to that is to kick them out and let them try to earn a living until they (the ones that survive) come home and beg for a chance to learn enough to earn a living. Then they will pay attention in class.

We need to incentivize the learning of these public schools students while we kick their inflated egos out from under them. They think they are smart enough to be the CEO of Intel. We need to call them on that. Let's see them earn their lunch money replacing the shocks on cars, creating marketing videos for Fiverr clients, or keeping track of the accounting for the other classes. I'll teach them what they need to know.

Above all, do not let anyone supervise a teacher who is not qualified to teach that subject. Public schools prepare principals to run high schools in 4 steps: First, have them teach kindergarten for a year. Second, be an elementary school principal for a year. Third, be a junior high principal for a year. Fourth, be a high school principal. Imagine if the head of OpenAI started doing tech support for Microsoft Word, then because a supervisor over Word Tech Support, then moved to be the head of developing Microsoft Office (without being able to code) then move to be the head of OpenAI (without being able to explain what a GAN is.) Seriously. I've had public school bosses who saw no reason to ask the kids to log into the PCs in a computer class. They wanted to see me "teach" meaning talk to the kids without them touching the PCs in a computer class. They were stuck in kindergarten.
6.1%, those using 7.0 and older will be affected. But that number will have fallen a bit by the time the certs actually expire in a year.
Oh, I know. But they are correct that the policies state that this is the case, even though Tumblr does still have quite a bit of porn, both compliant and not.
Sorry, new app. I didn't know it would do that.

This appears to be the same article:

Many European countries have records going back to the 1600s as does the US so there is just a wealth of information.

Americans are generally fascinated with people's origins and origin stories. I am sure some of that is historically - unfortunately -racially motivated. But also we are taught from an early age that the United States is a melting pot and we are fascinated by the immigrant story. The motivations on why someone would pick up and leave everyone they know to move to a new unknown place and also the cultures they bring with them.

With that, Americans also don't accept the United States as someplace people are from. Even if you're family has been here for 500 years, people still want to know where you're family came from originally. Only the indigenous Americans are "from" America.

The United States is young and with so many people coming from somewhere else, it is also a chance to connect with history. It can be fun to find an ancestor that fought in the revolutionary war, or was part of the Salem witch trials etc. It makes our history more real, and we have a lot less history to connect to than most of the rest of the world.

For me personally, it somewhat is inspiration and motivation. If any of my ancestors lived a different life, I wouldn't be here. If my great great grandfather didn't survive dysentery in the civil war, I wouldn't be here. I have family that left Ireland during the famine, following their history helps me contextualize big historical events. And helps me realize that people who weren't

I only recently started capturing my 97 year old grandfather's stories. Making it a project had helped me connect more with him. He grew up in a completely different world. Hearing his experiences listening to WWII breaking out or even little things like seeing his first movie and then his first color movie is so much more impactful than reading about the era in a book.
Yeah, it seems fully in the spirit of the “hacker” part of Hacker News. I thought it was cool.
Exactly, I am curious if they were providing the script directly from domain of the main website, and that probably would be an issue.
I think this is a topic that much cleverer people than me have thought long and hard on. Of course nothing practical remains unbreakable forever, but it seems weird that for example the default key size for ssh-keygen isn’t in the “probably two lifetimes” range.
this is a meta-analysis of carefully selected studies.
Employers don't care about burnout. If you are unfit for use they will discard you and get another person. They'll work the rest of your coworkers harder. It would only matter if everyone were to feel burnout at the same time. I mean, in the US, we don't even have a minimum PTO threshold and sick days are often from the same pool.
Could you elaborate on Cloudflare's support? My understanding was that unless you're on a plan ($20+/mo per site) you don't get access to support at all, just community/forums.
> Following the announcement of my resignation, Canonical decided to pull LXD out of the Linux Containers projects and relocate it to a full in-house project. That’s the news which we announced last week.

So is this like retaliation? Or an effort to reduce Stephane's influence over LXD? Or was it just that he'd been the one who pushed for developing LXD in the open, and with him gone they figured 'why bother'?
Perhaps adopt a hybrid model where you keep the features added before and up until the end of your subscription term? Then if you want features added after that, you have to renew your subscription.

> Seems like Apple is doing a better job of convincing / allowing folks to move to a more recent version of their operating system.

Much simpler than that: Apple doesn't allow third parties to make iPhones, while Google allows third parties to make Android phones. Devices don't get updated because manufacturers stop providing updates for them.
Thank you for submitting your support request through the Stripe back channel support network. Your ticket will be reviewed by nobody, unless you happen to be extremely lucky and win the Hacker News lottery. Best of luck!
It’s a bit anthropocentric to talk about not making sense from an engineering point of view. One example is the recurrent laryngeal nerve which always appears to take unnecessary detours to people because of what is thought to be historical evolution. But there is deep wisdom and insight we have gleaned in this, but I think it’s not for us to say well we could engineer this better, we don’t have the total knowledge of tools yet & it is dismissive and say disrespectful of the wondrous biological systems that have been made to sustain life.

Hubris and attempts to alter inherent nature are often tied up ironically. But we can benefit a lot more from biological humility, realizing there are many unknown unknowns.
Not the guy you're asking, but I prefer POP3 over IMMAP for the exact same reasons as you pay a third party: "reliability of not losing my emails, and also because I tend to access my email from several different devices and I want to make sure everything is synchronized"

The difference is that with the third-party approach, the third party is really a risk factor of unknown magnitude (even if trusted and paid). With the "local" approach you are in full control.
The important point being, with Google, Notion, Slack, Confluence, etc. your company has an actual contract with the vendor, properly signed, with provisions about data handling that your company (and unlike you as an individual) can effectively enforce. There's an actual relationship created here, with benefits and losses flowing both ways.

The Terms of Service? They're worth less than it costs to print them out.

Case in point: right now, Microsoft is repackaging OpenAI models on their Azure platform and raking it in - the main value proposition here is literally just that it's "OpenAI, but with proper contract and an SLA". But companies happily pay up, because that's what makes the difference between "reliable and safe to use at work" vs. "violating internal and external data safety standards, and in some cases plain up illegal".
Oddly USMC combat arms have some of the highest ASVAB scores going in. We're not dumb, just mean.

Are you sure it works this way now?
Oracle is not, has never been, and never will be a champion or leader in Open Source. Oracle has obligations they need to adhere to in the short term regarding F/LOSS licenses - though the end goal is _always_ extortion.

Oracle owns some great tech, they have always had great engineers. Oracle has ALWAYS leveraged their technology to prop up their protection racket. I'm constantly astonished they haven't violated RICO enough to free that Hawaiian island Uncle Larry bought, even considering their In-Q-Tel roots.

Well, Google Photos works on iOS. And I presume they would be as much a third party app as anyone else. So it is possible. From what I remember reading in the past it is possible to get wakeup events for GPS location changes. I think that's one trick to get an app to run in the background.

I agree though. It's a shame how iOS is completely crippling background apps.

I'm hoping for an alternative for Google Photos and I'm paying for ente.io. It works fine on Android, but background sync doesn't work on iOS. So for me personally it is not ready to replace Google Photos. If it can't be set and forget for non-technical family members it's not going to cut it.
It does feel like we keep going backwards for functionality while resource requirements keep increasing.

Picasa had face recognition, basic editing, and a bunch of sorting features and ran on computers that had something like 1/50th the CPU performance.

Meanwhile modern replacements like DigiKam, Lightroom, ON1, and so on are incredibly bloated with very slow UI response even on a very powerful desktop PC.

Although Immich does at least work well, the webUI is extremely fast and loads images instantly.
> Only ship something you are proud of.

meh. lots of companies are wildly successful with crappy products built by 9-5 teams. or startups with founders that are embarrassed by v0.1 or even v1.0.
The best products and features I've ever worked on were run by engineering and design working very closely together, while the PM role was pretty much exclusively stakeholder / client communication.

It's a shame how large organizations always form a layer of "product owners" who fight amongst each other for ownership and control.
If I use your copied credit card to buy software, all that happens is (a) some bits get written to my computer's hard disk and (b) some bits get written to a Visa or Mastercard server's hard disk. Why would you get upset about that?

EDIT: ok, it's fun playing obtuse, but more seriously it is also very obtuse to pretend that intellectual property is not property. I think you have to be pretty stupid to not understand why an author who spends a decade painstakingly creating a work of literature is entitled to ownership of reproductions of that work.
At Microsoft many years ago, they used to put a lot of product design work on PMs (who didn't have the training or time / bandwidth to do that well). I think this was the Ballmer era...
Sure. I don't know enough about those companies so I'm not complaining about them.

But I know Samsung has the money and manpower to drastically improve the situation, yet they don't care.

With the right abstractions, they would only have a single version of "Samsung OS", like you only have a single version of Windows/Ubuntu. And all devices within reason would be able to immediately update to the latest version of Samsung OS, like PCs can.
Definitely open to contributions, but I'll note that the barebones nature is mostly by design. I'm happy to take any usability improvements (of which I can imagine many!), but I don't want to introduce dependencies on design/component frameworks or even CSS libraries.

Generally, all the content for a day's lifts should fit on a single small mobile phone screen to make it dead simple to record a lift and then get to the next one.

Yes. Years and years and years of it.
You can use it for photos, but for those contained within the photos library that's handled separately through the PhotoKit now. It should be technically possible to backup your photos library through syncthing, I only think the automation of such and the permissions required would probably be annoying to deal with. Not sure if Mobius developer(s) looked into that yet.

If you don't use the photos app, you can keep them all in the files app and it syncs just fine. Annoying to use since the files app is nowhere near as nice for photo browsing/management.
Can't find it now but recall an Eno quote about loathing audiophiles because they use your music to listen to their system.

3D sound with be tech? Like really? I don't remember Eno being an idiot. He's aware of the existence of stereo headphones and that they are not new tech. Does he think the rest of us are stupid enough to swallow this BS whole?

I guess we all gotta get paid and this is relatively harmless.
Through several metrics we continuously measure we determine reliability of users. So, empathetic and positive users that are constantly providing good answers receive a higher score and in the contrary the opposite is true.
The higher the score the more questions the user gets assigned and the more he earns per response.
People that are better qualified thrive and people that are not fall behind on this meritocratic system where users have to earn their place.
> Stepping back... having higher "productivity" or "GDP growth" does not make a cut-and-dry "winner". Everything is a trade-off.

OK, so what's the upside to working almost twice as long to achieve the same output as an American? Doesn't seem to be happiness, because Japan seems to score a good deal lower there as well, and that's after GDP adjustment:

https://ourworldindata.org/grapher/gdp-vs-happiness?country=...

As I said, I'm aware of plenty of metrics that Japan does significantly better than the US on, but I'd like to see one that's linked to low productivity and low growth.

on connect, a user is presented with an option to preselect a wifi network and input their geographic location. I managed to stuff a zip code lookup table into the code, but lat/long is really cumbersome to input, and using the phone's location sensor requires an HTTPS server
> It’s already obvious that a quantum theory of gravity is needed because we need a way to talk about superpositions of spacetime curvatures.

But it doesn't seem to be that way, at least not necessarily, and that's what the article is about. What makes it obvious to you that there is no room for unification theories (of GR and QM) that don't involve a quantized version of gravity?

Note that I'm not claiming gravity is not quantized. I'm just saying it cannot be ruled out yet.
My dream. Over my entire Army career, I went between failing and barely passing the sit-up test. I did just fine on the run and push-ups and was always doing a ton of additional sit-up exercises, but it was always a major stressor whether I'd pass that damn test on any given morning.
Physicians are some of the larger victims of this inflation, no? Also “they” are not doing anything with ACGME in general, that’s an entirely separate issue.

I really dislike AirBnB, but I don't think they've got anything to worry about with Hotel2. Even calling them a competitor seems like a massive stretch. Just poking around their site to see what's available in my area: $240/night gets you what is, well... a hotel room. Except that it has a couch and a microwave in it. Calling such a thing a "suite" makes me feel like Hilton is gaslighting me.
