In this case, the TFA notes that Shopify offered the ISV a path forward and Mr. Leteyski chose "go to war" (Option B). He killed the business, not Shopify. He may chalk that up as a "win", but I'd bet his customers and employees don't.
Consider focusing on managing the team through this: "there are a lot of skeletons in the code & infra to worry about." Sometimes what happens is you have seniors who know the technology and product inside and out, but don't think in terms of team dynamics and the organization's ability to deliver effectively.

I run into that problem a lot, to be fair.

Though my approach is to fork and maintain the fork until my PR is accepted, merged, and in a tagged release.

Another is to apply a diff to the dependency within the build system, which is what I do a lot in Nix (mainly to solve cmake issues on hermetic builds).

Either way, it isn't unsurmountable. It doesn't really matter so much if it's used as an executable rather than as a library, though in the case of the latter it's really handy to be able to e.g. pass a custom spdlog sink for logging.
Some small businesses do in fact charge a card processing fee directly to the consumer which you don't have to pay if you use cash.

Of course they do, unless the processes are regulated by a country (such as handling highly addictive opiates in the US).

In a response about the Turing test on this site, LLaMa 2 used the phrase “to exhibit intelligent behavior equivalent to, or indistinguishable from, that of a human” which appears to be copied verbatim from the first sentence of the Wikipedia article on the subject (as well as quite a few other pages in Google). Makes me wonder how many of the responses are just repeating and rephrasing memorized content written by humans, which will of course appear better, while ChatGPT makes more effort to avoid this (and might be able to generalize better to things it hasn’t memorized?).
And there are other situations in which a constant connection to the cloud might not be preferable

I know this is only discussing the few places where constant connectivity is still rare such as airline travel but there are plenty of times where I'm on a limited connection. Such as being throttled on AT&T at concerts, at the mall, etc.

I'd love to see more applications built in a "local first" manner where I'd be able to do what I need without thinking about the throttling and they just sync my changes when its possible.

I hate when my connection drops and slack says "Couldn't send!" and forces me to decide when to retry... just hold on to my message and send it when you see connectivity again!
Why wouldn’t they? This technology is not a competitive advantage for their company, wouldn’t make sense for them to sell as a standalone product, and it helps their engineering department attract good talent.
EV batteries are less efficient cold weather and hot weather too. Yes, ICE would be more efficient in cold due to cooler/more combustable air entering the combustion chamber as evidenced by the use of intercoolers in turbos to cool the hot compressed air from the turbo mechanism.
> Brave is, at the end of the day, in the same boat as Google: they make money on ads.

And that should be the main distinction between browsers today - relience on ads for monetization has profound impact on incentives.

There are browsers that are directly (or indirectly) ad-supported, and those which are not. The second group is very small though - how many browsers you can buy today?
An interesting take. The only bit I strongly disagree with is this:

> One advice we got was to file an antitrust case against Shopify in a European Court.

> Theoretically, we could’ve argued that Shopify uses anti-competitive practices to get rid of their checkout competition. Similar to what Spotify & Epic Games did against Apple.

> While that might’ve been a viable option, honestly, I don’t have the balls to pick a legal fight with a multi-billion corporation.

> On top of that, I believe that crying to the regulator is a bitch move. After everything, I still believe that Shopify built their platform and they should be able to do whatever they want with it.

I have no insight into how the EU's competition laws would or would not apply here, but that's literally the regulator's job, and it's certainly not a "bitch move" to hold companies accountable for anticompetitive behavior (if that's what's happening).
Obtuse non-sequitur. No one is talking about traveling with a gun. Chrisco already explains why.

Countries can make whatever restrictions they like; we don’t have to support them. That’s the power of choice. Has nothing to do with entitlement.
If only the rest of social media were populated by cowering conformist milquetoasts, like HN is, the alleged censorship would be unnecessary.
IDK how you feel about using legal force to strip someone of a civil right, but that seems pretty active to me. It's certainly less of a stretch than characterizing OP as "blatant lies", but I guess your standards for precision of language only flow one way. Have a good one!

Every few month I make a new one. That's because I like to share personal information when I discuss certain topics. I don't have secrets to hide, but I just don't feel comfortable having it all in one place. I want to stay as anonymous as I can. I try to avoid an account that paints a comprehensive picture of my thoughts, interests, job situations, hopes, whatever, you name it

There is a bullet point in the guidelines about exactly that. It's not desired behaivor. But I don't feel bad about it, because I don't intend to misuse it.

Kind of related: I'm worried about the new language recognition tools of today and tomorrow. Last time I've seen a post about HN users, they needed 10k (?) words from an account to make a connection between accounts.

> Like Fox News doesn't coordinate with conservatives

It think the general case they are making is that Fox doesn’t have Section 230 immunity, and is therefore responsible/liable for its editorial decisions. (See: the Dominion settlement.)

The claim is that social networks are having their cake (immunity from liability of content) and eating it too (getting to make editorial decisions).

The more general issue being that they are using editorial discretion to remove content that the government politely asks them to remove, rather than stuff that any law says they must control. (And the claim is that of course they would not acquiesce if a Republican government made a polite request to remove something they didn’t like.)
Ok? https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/jay-zs-decoded...

Don't care for his music, the person, but my point still stands that you can't be held up for a drug dog at a traffic stop is a real thing you should know and according to Jay Z himself it's exactly what it's referencing.

Whether he stole the hook or not doesn't really matter in this context, and has nothing to do with #metoo, I don't even know where that fits in as well.

So?

"Stirring shit up" doesn't mean doing anything illegal. If they also get views WHILE calling out the bad stuff, why is that bad? They aren't violating the law. They aren't forcing anyone to do anything. I really don't see why not breaking the law is suddenly frowned upon.
I mean, the fact that this guy was making $7.2MM a year in revenue from his software seems relevant.

Republicans are insane, Democrats are cowards, neither lead.

This is what you get when you try to get everyone to vote. Your vote counts! But when too many people who have no idea what's going on vote, the game of who gets elected becomes "who can take advantage of the ignorant masses best?". Which is why we got a reality TV personality as a president and zero pressure by the electorate to get the Democrats to get anything done.
Couldn't you come to the same conclusion about making the 2nd floor cantilever over the entrance and call it engineering? I guess it depends on how you personally arrive to the conclusion, but the results can be interpreted.

I suppose the same problem largely lands for "components." Especially as you get related components?
Recent W&M Condensed Matter Physics Grad. Worked closely with HT Kim, not on this project. He is a trustworthy guy, knows his stuff. I think he is right when he calls the paper very sloppy, I am confused why there is no phase diagram and the sample purity seems suspect. These are things I think would have been addressed in peer review and would give me more confidence overall. Probably not fraud, but doesn't mean it's superconductivity.

Not optimistic about replication in the next week too, Solid State Synthesis seems "easy" but in my experience can be problematic. Not an expert in that part though
If they ask you the questions on the travel authorization form at the port of entry instead, would it be better?

If you get denied the travel authorization, there is a chance you would have been denied in person after a long flight instead without this initial step.

They are just asking questions ahead of time.
So what you're saying, is that even with a weaker el nino, we still have higher global average temps? And this is somehow "sensationalized?"
What's the point of basing it on Chromium when Chrome exists?

Brave seems intent on actively trying to sabotage the Google ad distribution business model and inject their own ad distribution system. It's kind of weird to base their browser on the browser maintained by an entity with objectives that are at such odds with their own.
The majority of cars sold are used cars. Yes there are some who won't consider a used car, but they are a minority (a large minority, but still a minority). The average car last 12 years, the typical new car is replaced every 3 years with a newer one.

A salvage title is only used when someone intends to restore the car, and then it goes back to a normal title once restored (or at least that is how my state did it 15 years ago - each state is different). You get the salvage title only to justify paying taxes on the actual value of the car (sales tax on a car is for actual value not the price you paid, so a salvage title is useful to prove it isn't worth what the book says) It will show up on CarFax as restored then. (though as you note most such issues never get a salvage title as they are not sold)
Epilogue of my time working at Twitter
There seems to be a certain type of personality/intellect that tends to develop a powerful aversion to oversimplifying abstractions.
When I used own a Model S, it nearly left me stranded in a mountainous highway, in winter with its optimistic range meter. Ultimately, I had to drift behind a truck, drive at 45 mph, and reach the Supercharger with 2% charge remaining.
The magic sauce is the empathy part. Which is different than what was done back then in male-dominated, boomer-centric work places. It's equivalent of making a safe space before embarking on the rest of the standard design/dev processes.

How you feel about safe spaces will be analogous about how you feel of design thinking. A lot of consultants cashed in on this trend to sell all kinds of stupid things. That's also what he's talking about.

Now with new generation coming in, empathy is by default. Therefore, if you really think about it, design thinking is fizzling out because it's now the standard.
I think they use a shard of the end of an ferrite loopstick antenna to fake the so called levitation. With some help, as seen in the video, it will orient itself in the field lines of the magnet.
Seems like if the cops keep a cool head and follow the law there’s no content, no?

Funny how the absolute bare minimum requirement that one would expect for police would make most of this simply disappear (obviously some of these are about actual laws which are unconstitutional, which may need to be handled in court post-arrest)
Can someone help me understand what it means for a superconductor (which should have zero resistance) to have such a low current capacity? Does this mean it's possible to have a voltage drop across the superconductor? Does that voltage drop somehow not result in power dissipation? Is it something like capacitive or inductive reactance?
This is already a solved issue.

They don't maintain changes that take too much manpower to maintain.

You have to pick your battles.
The Wikipedia cited reference for the lyric being about a police dog (but only when sung after the 2nd verse) is from 2011, so I think you have your #MeToo timetable wrong.

Considering that Jay-Z himself tells us what those lyrics mean to him in his 2011 book, how would you consider that a "PR accomplishment"? The person who wrote the song ("stolen" line or otherwise) is the best source for what the artist intended, no?
The problem is what are normal driving conditions? Another poster mentioned having efficiency numbers by the grade of the road, which would provide more information to buyers.
The product of the industry is still a product of, and dependent on, that industry. Otherwise the industry would not exist, and the product would exist, but in much different form than most people encounter it today.
Definitely agreed there. More SQLite is more good in my book.
Using base chrome is worse then though right? Google causes infinitely more damage..
It's remarkable when stories like this reach the top of Hacker News, but then people still do not understand why one might want to build an application on a "Can't Be Evil" platform like a crypto network.

Scalability/costs/complexity aside — this is why Ethereum and similar decentralized computers are attractive.
> I have no idea why all of you settled on "OP was equating taking their civil rights to genocide" but the reading seems clearly bad. "Trivialising genocide" is quite a take and one which I think is clearly silly. The same movement which would take away same-sex marriage is openly salivating about using legal force to commit violent reprisals against the LGBGTQ communities, and lawyering about the precise wording of a comment is stooge work.

From your first response to me you have been unnecessarily rude. "Facile"? "Bad-faith"? "Stooge"?

Just because a large number of people don't believe that preventing same-sex marriage is the same as the holocaust doesn't mean we are acting in bad faith.

FWIW, I get the same response from ideologically pure believers when I nitpick their use of phrases like "stare-rape".
> Then, out of nowhere, they just implemented it themselves!

If I'm understanding the timeline and details, it isn't that Shopify came out with a better solution which lost them customers. Shopify banned them from adding any new customers and at some point later Shopify delivered something that replicated some of their features.
Yep, but the model I referred to (DICE) had been developed by him (and others) over many years - unsurprisingly, since it's what he won the prize for.

Superhuman for Android
We've been working super hard to bring Superhuman to every platform. We started with Gmail, on the web. We then added macOS, followed by iOS. Last year we launched Outlook, and earlier this year we launched Windows. Today, we are launching Superhuman for Android.

We've now built an email client from scratch several times over, with an emphasis on performance each time. Many mistakes made and lessons learned along the way. AMA!
Which ICE cars use resistive heating? I've never seen an alternator large enough on an ICE car to do it. (I'm also skeptical of how well that'd work on a 12v electrical system)

People pay more for digital media than physical media in other contexts for the convenience. I'm not going to buy a DVD on amazon to save a few dollars.

It's subjective, I'm sure there's still people buying DVDs, but you can't say that there's "zero upside"
I work in tech and the arts and my experience is that some of the most emotionally disengaged people are in STEM, not everyone of course, but comparing the two, it’s not even close. It’s actually pretty rare to find anyone serious in the arts emotionally dimmed, a large part of the job there is dialing into emotion. That said, seems people at the top in STEM (shaping the field) and on the fringes (doing experimental, cutting edge work) are usually experts and highly emotionally engaged. Take it all with a grain of salt, I guess.

The answer I got with the prompt "You are a git expert. How do I search for a string in dangling commits?"

Was:
Dangling commits in Git are often referred to as commits that are no longer reachable from any branch, tag, or the HEAD. These commits usually occur when you create a commit and then move the branch pointer away from it without creating a new branch or tag. They can also occur during rebases or other history rewriting operations.

Git has a garbage collector (`git gc`) that will periodically clean up these dangling commits, but until that happens, they're still in your repository and can be examined.

Unfortunately, Git doesn't provide a direct command to search for a string in dangling commits. However, you can find these commits using the `git fsck` command, which checks the filesystem for errors and dangling commits.

Here is a way to do it manually:

1. List all the dangling commits using `git fsck --lost-found`. This will print out all the dangling commits and store them in `.git/lost-found/commit/`.

2. For each dangling commit, you can search for a specific string using `git log -p <commit-id>` or `git show <commit-id>` and then pipe the output to `grep`.

Here's an example of what this might look like in a script:

mkdir -p .git/lost-found
git fsck --lost-found
for commit in $(ls .git/lost-found/commit/); do
git show $commit | grep -q "your string here" && echo "Found in commit $commit"
done

This script will print the IDs of any dangling commits that contain the string "your string here".

Remember to replace "your string here" with the string you are searching for.

*NOTE*: This operation could be time-consuming if you have a lot of dangling commits or a large repository. Also, this approach might not work if the garbage collector has already cleaned up the commits. Make sure to be careful when manipulating Git's internals like this, as it could potentially corrupt your repository if done incorrectly.
Do you want to learn a framework or just new JS stuff?
https://eloquentjavascript.net/ is a great way to get familiar with JS. React has the most traction behind it, although I found Vue easier to pick up. I suggest trying your hand at things and seeing what sticks with you. I've been having a blast with Vercel.
Bootwind? Tailstrap?

I bet there's a market...
Most of the stuff I have read on this presupposes that some kind of phase transition(think of the early universe being in a 'boiling' phase and then condensating) occurred that caused the field which drove inflation(with the force carrier called the inflaton) to decay and release all the energy in the field(that is, the inflatons decayed). This decay process is what we conceive of as 'the big bang', as in the start of the energy dense Universe we see a glimpse of in the CMB.

You are right that the goalposts have been moved. When analysis of the CMB began, it was noticed that it was far too uniform in distribution and temperature for what was previously thought to be possible. It was at this point that an inflationary period was tacked on before 'the big bang' because that was the only way to get the kind of 'big bang' we seem to have had.

Look, I get it, some people love these cars and will stand no criticism, fine. I had one, they are lovely. We are allowed to want things we like to be better.

But all the "just use nav estimate" arguments miss that some people drive more than one place?

If I am driving out an hour to do some shopping, visit my parents, and then drive back.. it may be a total of 90mi but the first leg is 30mi. Do I need to pre-enter my round trip as multiple waypoints to get an accurate view of whether I will make it home or not?

Seems silly.

Just guesstimate a more accurate dashboard view range like you do in other place sin the UI.

You are 100% correct that this could be a giant psy-op constructed to convince people of something insane like aliens. From what I’ve heard, the ICIG has gotten testimony under oath from people purported to be apart of the reverse engineering programs, and they have provided locations and photo evidence. There’s also a report that one of these craft are [so large that it can’t be moved](0). Congress could send a special envoy to investigate this and find out right now if this is a ruse or not. Do you think they should?

I’ll admit, I went into their repo expecting to find Rust, or at the very least go. Pleasantly surprised to see C++ code though I would need to look further to see if it’s “good” C++ code. The naming conventions of the source tree lends me to suspect it’s not.
