Ask HN: Is there any software you regret making?
After watching the new Oppenheimer movie, it got me thinking how vast science and technology is. A lot of things can be used for evil. Maybe the question is not about complete regret or not developing the software at all but about changing how it was developed or for who.
No add documents or memory context?

That's definitely polite.

Might $FamousTechPersonality also be described as publicly enthusiastic about things that he has invested in already, so he feigns certainty as a mind game to get others to invest themselves, to his earlier investment's benefit?
They’re doing the Kodak maneuver. Meaning they’ll be spending cash on innovation because a minority of shareholders want to see them investing in the future but almost everyone isn’t willing to see actual losses. So then they’ll just keep spending on innovation but barely change their corporate strategy and then eventually fizzle out.

Interesting guess find a town a half hour commute from San Jose and the cost of living my guess is you won't see a real improvement. I estimate this from having to turn down several jobs in Cali over the years. The one was almost doable but the commute was an hour and a half because of traffic, and a 10 her work day with 3 hrs of driving isnt sustainable. Especially after I asked how often people pull more than ten hours days...
You sound exactly like anti-EV people. I don’t need EV, it’ll be too expensive, etc, etc.

Toyota, at least historicity, is targeting mass market, where they can make affordable and reliable car. Current EV works for you? Great! But it doesn’t for many others.

I have EV and PHEV, and I won’t abandon my PHEV (big car) till battery is significantly better - I need a second big car, with a big range, that comes without any asterisks.
What about people who use non-ASCII sets?
This is a smart move. Current EV’s have not quite solved enough of the issues to make them viable for most non urban areas. Hybrids remain the most in demand and the best of both worlds with current tech.

If we can get a battery with a massive range then charging issues subside a bit and these vehicles become much more viable for most if not all of the US.
Hope they open source it, but probably not
Just because there's a named principle with its own wikipedia page doesn't mean many web devs aren't just lazy slackers and either didn't notice the usability problem, didn't care enough to change it, or just didn't know how and didn't care enough to figure it out.
You aren’t trying to change culture, you’re just being selfish. If the “custom” you are bringing back only benefits you at the expense of others, you need to rethink how you are “being the change”.

Stiffing waiters is shitty behavior, especially when you know the expectation, and withhold expressing your intent to act contrary to custom to your own exclusive benefit. Ask for them to include service in the price they charge you so you can protest without it being at someone else’s expense. In countries where tipping isn’t the norm the service is built into the price, so if you are going to skip tipping, make sure that you also aren’t skipping the behind the scenes changes necessary for that business model.

If you wanted to actually change things you would speak to management and workers and explain that you are trying to change the world and why.

How is a waiter or management supposed to differentiate your noble intentions from those of a selfish prick, seeing as how the actions and effect are identical?
Rather, the large tech companies are some of the worst offenders, but it's coupled with egregious arrogance and a self-held belief that they're better and smarter than everyone else. Google is in an even more unique position as they can bully their way around the internet by breaking and influencing standards at their whims. Ever tried to get support from Google? Go ahead, I'll wait.
My understanding, but maybe its fake news over here in the UK, is that Jobs dropped out, Zuckerberg dropped out, Gates dropped out, Brin and Page both dropped out. Cant comment on the other two MS blokes, or the other bloke who co founded Apple.

But getting a decent education here in the UK, where you dont get beaten up by teachers, in my experience is quite difficult. I even dropped out of one schools six form to enroll in another six form, perhaps demonstrating my willingness to learn, but even one of those courses was sabotaged.

To be honest I think the mentality of the british empire was and might still be pervasive with state school education, viewed more as an institution to contain people of a certain age than a place of learning.

Perhaps that is why law is not taught to everyone at school even in a TL;DR fashion?

Free movie trailer discovery web app
Hi all, I'm a high schooler and aspiring dev/founder. I released my first ever web app called trailerly after working on it for a year. I'd love some feedback, how do you think we can improve the product?
This is why I moved away from web frameworks. I could feel them making me incapable of solving really simple problems like this.

Autofocus & tab order are a nightmare-tier mission if you absolutely have to get them right but find yourself trapped inside some dynamic DOM circus.

As far as I am aware, whatever magic is happening inside the browser's HTML engine is infinitely more reliable and predictable than what any JS framework could provide on top. JS certainly won't be making it faster or more responsive.
I am a self-taught web developer and between all the available technology stacks out there I still love LAMP. Linux, Apache, Mysql + PHP is like the Walmart of web technology. It isn't shiny or cool but does the job and you can create products people pay for.
Understood, I'll think about starting a newsletter then :)

The intent was to gauge potential interest among users but yes, I get where you're coming from. It's likely to be seen more as a pull strategy instead.

Thanks for your input!
People will move to places that already have people - people that want to protect their resources, and will react with hostility to climate refugees. It's already happening. Pretzel logic doesn't change that.
>Kombucha is another one I haven't seen mentioned here...you don't really save money in general and decent commercial products you can easily get many places are as good or better.

Kombucha is the exception.

I make kombucha at home. The labor is extremely minimal (basically the same effort as making a gallon of sweet iced tea) and the economics absolutely make sense - the cost less than $1 a gallon for me to make it vs $3-5 for 16 oz at the grocery store. Plus I already have pounds of tea at home.

The other reasons I make it are to avoid having to haul heavy bottles into the house and because I prefer unflavored kombucha and only flavored ones are widely available commercially.
I don't follow how society's not a reliable source of values, which I agree in principle, but Abraham (that we only know of thanks to spotty written records post-fact) is.
lol. I guess you can’t count. It was 100s if not more looting.

Oh loon you did the same thing you complained of. “5 people looted”. 5 people is just theft.

The real issue is conflating the two groups. When somebody is saying looters they are talking about looters, not protesters. Ans when somebody is talking about protesters they are not talking about looters. No reason to ever bring up protesters when talking about rioters or looters.

That being said. We are told that white silence is violence and the lack of action makes you complicit. So if there are protest going on and under the cover of the protest some subset loot or riot then maybe the protesters should be held accountable for not stopping said bad actions?
Ironic that you're downvoted by the Certified Experts that love telling people we're nothing more than "stochastic parrots".
Then we’ll die if we can’t innovate fast enough.

The last couple of decades have shown what happens if you warn people about some imperceptible (to them) danger and tell them sacrifice personally, even in minor ways, to stave it off.

Frighteningly little happens. The change that does happen has been frequently coming in on a wave of technical innovation making greener options superior to old ones.
I understand the scenario you're describing but I don't think it's the only one.some services need resources to scale. It can be a mutually beneficial feedback loop for customers to express interest, and producers to validate fit and understand the magnitude of their market.

The big bang go-live approach you describe isn't always the best for either side.
I can't speak for why SH4 was always unofficial, but from a vibes perspective today, RISC-V feels like an architecture on the up. That probably helps attract more developers, and ultimately it takes people to do the work.

> Of course that's no LA or NY, which I'm sure have better public transport.

Yeah, if you intended on talking about large cities, New Mexico would not be included in that list. New York, Los Angelos, San Francisco, Seattle, Chicago, Denver, Dallas, Austin, Boston, Washington DC would be a few real metros that you could refer to as a "large city" around here with decent public transit systems. And that public transit usually extends out to their suburbs fairly well. Trick comes with crossing from one large city to another, or through wide open rural ways. Efficient transport just doesn't spiderweb out across all that open prairie in the US.

Touching on your point too, I believe trains in the US are typically of the slower variety when compared to trains from other developed countries. They also often make stops every few miles to pick up and drop off passengers that slow them down quite a lot. When you consider how far some of these train tracks go, a stop every 3-8 miles or so adds up to a lot of time.
Blowing away the form on submission is the worst sin if form design. Only blow it away if it was accepted!

I wonder if this is a deliberate (legal) submission reduction technique.
When rich people invest, that means they are buying something. That thing gets taxed because they bought it. When they want to sell it to get a profit, someone has to buy it and pay taxes (factoring that tax into the equation also lowers selling price which is effectively a tax too).

Poor people spend MOST of their income on their primary residence, food, utilities, and a couple other staples. You could simply eliminate taxes associated withe residences under X amount, taxes on staple foods, residential utility bills under a certain amount, etc. At that point, poor people would be paying few taxes while rich people would be forced to pay for all the things that make it worth being rich.
Debian has hard dependencies on a ton of GPLv3 packages (coreutils, bash, etc). As a result, you can't legally ship a product containing Debian unless you give your users the ability to modify your root filesystem.

So: if you're making a consumer-facing product that has secured firmware updates, then Debian (or any derivative like Ubuntu) is probably not what you want. Assuming you care about license compliance.

Weird how the largest pandemic in 100 years, supply chain issues, and huge demand for the Model Y made changing plans a good idea.

The web is not designed to be useful for any purpose. It is designed to demonstrate plausible "technologies" developed by companies whose investors want to sell them to other companies.

I've used https://github.com/PromtEngineer/localGPT for this and thought it was nice. So I packaged it in a docker container for easy use.

docker run -itd --gpus all -p $(PORT):5111 --name llm-local-wizardlm-7b obald/llm-launcher:0.0.2

just use localhost:port in the browser and upload docs then ask questions in the gui.

Really nice for easy lookup of rules in boardgames and such. As it provides the relevant text from the docs in addition to the query answer.

I've always wondered, couldn't screenreaders and similar just disable autofocus? I can't imagine a scenario where a site would break by disabling it, all I can think of is they don't have that much control over the browser, which seems even more insane...
Simple usually means fewer parts. Doesn’t mean those parts are cheap. Raw material costs for EVs are still a problem, although the increased demand in the past few years has spurred mining annd refining companies into action and we are now seeing drops in the Lithium and other commodity markets. The invisible hand at work.
The defaults probably are probably close to the minimums required. Remember this is a conservative operating system. They will not look at your system and guess how you want to use it and make more guesses at your partition size should be.

They assume since it's your disk you best know how to partition it. One is free to edit the default save them to file for next time.

If one wants to manage the details of a computer system with documentation describing the implications of each decision OpenBSD is perfect.

There are plenty of other operating systems that will most do the right thing. How many operating systems do exactly what you tell it to?

Yeah, you can't be anything blue-collar remotely. As well as jobs like healthcare. Lots of jobs still require you to physically interact with people or things.
Some might but it’s honestly a drop in the bucket. There are over a billion more people in the developing world who want a middle class life, and we have no right to sit here in our privilege and tell them they can’t have it. Even if we do their response will be “fuck you.”

What we can do is develop decarbonized energy and transport tech and hope we have it ready for them in time.

Remember that this is a global problem. The US and Europe may have gotten this ball rolling but at this point you could turn both of these off and Asia would still take us way up past 500ppm.

At this point we aren’t going to avoid some dangerous climate change unless someone invents Mr. Fusion next year, but we could probably still avert the really catastrophic outcomes if we can at least flatten the emission curve over the next decade or two. The crazy projections are based on total business as usual.
They're best suited for people who had a good experience with a BSD in the 90s and are sentimental about that. Otherwise, there's really no reason to go with them over a Linux system.
I think the two are separate.

If I can look at a board such that I don't have to ask in standup what's going on with a ticket (unless it's going much longer than expected), then we can use that for more valuable conversations.

The whole point of the standup should be to handle learnings like "we don't need this work" or "we're doing the wrong thing. Let's fix that!"

> In the present day we are informed of risks in a sometimes random way. Automobiles are perhaps the most dangerous things in our lives. And they certainly do go bad and explode. Or crash into people. Yet we still drive and cross the street. We manage our risks.

We manage that risk through rules and safety regulations, like ABS and airbags.

> Our food supply is now managed for us by giant corporations. They try very hard to make as much profit as possible - often by using materials and processes that are untested and may cause unexpected problems.

Pasteurization is just heating milk. It's one of the best tested processes in existence.

Rejecting safety measures is just rolling back centuries of progress. Those giant corporations would love it if they didn't have to take elaborate precautions to make food and cars safe, because those take effort and cost a lot of money to provide.
Openwrt also makes an excellent base embedded distro - it's designed to run from a read-only root which is important for any serious embedded device, whilst still having the ability to add packages. The common ringlogger simplifies system logging, and the UCI settings stuff is well thought out and simplifies device configuration backups/deployment.
This interpretation of GPL compliance doesn’t match anything I’ve seen before.
Notes on e/acc principles and tenets (2022)
And that is unlikely to change any time soon not because they just want to wait for 2027 for unknown reasons despite massive demand for EVs and PHEVs that they still can't make in large numbers.
You have to make those procedures first, and just like software, manufacturing technologies change fast. Each manufacturing technology has its own bugs and a lot of older technologies you can't even hire for anymore.

Now get this, someone could say "we're going to do it with AI from day one!" Blow 40million, to contractors because ew who wants to own their production, and fail. Black box technologies and contractors have different risks entirely.

There's a lot of reasons why attempting to revive thirty year old practices to still be profitable is more than a challenge. Hence why they failed.
I thought it was that it’s a more efficient use of lithium to make one hundred hybrids instead of ten EVs?
I'm enjoying this book about the product-management (as opposed to the project-management) challenges of implementing government policy.

A favorite nugget: Too much policy is "vomited" into difficult-to-use online paperwork such as HealthCare.gov, food-stamp signups, etc.

The big challenge, the author says, is serving users' needs as opposed to the government's needs.

Have you ever read GPLv3? It has a so-called anti-tivoization clause that covers exactly what I'm describing.

That clause was the reason why the Linux kernel stayed on GPLv2, and so did a lot of core embedded software like BusyBox.
My larger point is there is a very big difference between dropping out of an elite institution just before the finish line because you think you have a billion dollar company on your hands, and just dropping out. Even if MS, Facebook and Google all failed Brinn, Zuckerberg, and Gates would still have been able to walk get a job probably. They didn't drop out because they failed out, they willingly left to pursue their ideas, and were otherwise top notch students.
