Tom from Codecov here. This is so true, 80% is usually a much more reasonable approach. It’s better to write good tests than all the tests.

That's why I wear an rpi connected to four lcd's on my face that display randomly chosen beard tiles.

It's also why I started Our Lady of the Anonymity Pool where we gather for music and fellowship, and to recharge and distribute beard screens to our congregants and visitors.
That's why I cycle everywhere. With my phone switched off and stowed in a Faraday bag.
The EPA estimate is for 55mph driving in optimal conditions, and is fairly accurate in my experience.

It's very easy to exceed EPA estimates in the city. The optimal speed to drive a Tesla is about 15mph. At that speed a Tesla will exceed EPA range by about 20%.
Doesn't seem like a good idea to actually do this, since the car phones home all the time.
Tesla could blacklist you from supercharging etc.

What the documentation for Elixir and its big libraries (Ecto and Phoenix) lack in quantity of documentation, they exceedingly make up for in quality of documentation. Who needs a bunch of garbage blog posts about how to do xyz, when the official docs painstakingly lay out not only what you need to know, but also present it in a readable and discoverable way?

I agree. They read like "I don't want the additional work of creating ISOs" to me. Which, honestly, is plenty good justification for not making them on its own. There's no need for further justification.
Reddit has rolled out a bunch of changes to the logged-out web experience
Popularity is a multiple faceted issue w/r/t quality of engineers in any given language.

One caveat to any of it is the easier a language is to grok and the more use cases it has, the more likely it will attract all types of developers and there will always be more "bottom end" developers than "top end" developers, as is patterned out in any large distribution.

That said, here's some facets to consider about this

- Its not likely its the language (or to be charitable, not just the language) at play here. As noted above, the more popular something is, the more likely you end up with a wider varieties of folks at very different backgrounds / skill levels etc. Python and PHP have similar issues.

- The more popular the language is, is often correlated to its use cases. For example, JavaScript is hugely popular in a wide swath of problem domains, from the server, to the web (its de facto monopoly right now) to desktop apps to even now mobile (Ionic, NativeScript etc). This leads to the top developers in the language often going to very lucrative positions that one would also presumably have to be working alongside or as part of to be working with them

- Its harder in a bigger pool to work with the top N % of developers in any given language or (better yet, any given environment / problem space deploying that language as part of its core technological backbone). The big "sea" in the middle is what you're most likely to be apart of

I think smaller communities benefit from organic interest, people who are enthusiastic to use the technology and therefore often the perceived quality of those developers is higher (and often it does correlate, see: the history of Clojure)

I don't think a language in and of itself is to blame, except in that maybe, because some languages like Python and JavaScript are so easy to pickup as opposed to say, Java, Kotlin, C# or Rust, that they attract more developers in general. That said, I think its the laws of distribution at work, and not really the driven by the language per se.
I think that as a business and given the fact they are now charging for a previously free service (public IPs), offering a now paid service as free would nullify the reasons for doing what they are doing. They don't owe anyone anything for free.
I have reviewed the threat model carefully before. AMD never claims that their confidential compute offering is immune to attacks involving physical access. I assume what you mean by confidential compute is technology like AMD SEV SNP? Those are very different in that they allow you to run a trusted virtual machine on an untrusted hypervisor. This attack is completely different; it's akin to breaking Secure Boot on a PC.
you don't have to break even on implementation. you will get billed every single year, so if you can have two dudes solve this in 3 months, you can break even in 3 years and every year after that you saved money
Judging by you mentioning "no car days" you don't live in the US. American cars are very quiet at the city speed. Americans, on the other hand, are not quiet at all. Especially when they are moving by foot in a walkable neighborhood with drinking establishments.

Someone else pointed out LD50 is ~700ppm

It's unlikely you'd be exposed to this level for any period of time unless the battery ruptured into the car, underwater, with the windows up, in which case you have bigger problems. You're unlikely to to see 700ppm in an outdoor situation like a car wreck or battery malfunction on the highway during a rainstorm. Atmospheric CO2 is about 450ppm for comparison.

Ammonia is a superior refrigerant (widely used in industrial circles, and causes no ozone depletion, is biodegradable, etc) but not used in residential applications because it's highly toxic if there's a catastrophic seal failure and not vented outside, despite the fact that humans are very efficient at smelling even the slightest ammonia leak.

Entirely depends on where China sits in this discussion.

Two problems with that theory.

2. I've been doing this for my whole 15 year professional career. Doesn't seem like a phase.
So if you buy a Tesla and the T&Cs prohibit you from hacking it/modding it, then you decide to hack away at it anyway, what happens if Tesla were to brick the online features of your vehicle and/or completely cancel you as a customer?

- it’s an easy to make room temperature superconductor!

- ok it’s hard to make but still RTSC!

- ok it’s superconducting at 100K but its a novel class of SC! <= you are here

- ok it’s not a superconductor but it still has interesting properties!

- ok it doesn’t have singular properties but it could have!

I predict there will still be LK99 truthers in 20 years arguing that this amazing discovery was buried by big copper conspiracy.

I got my TI-99/4 confiscated by law enforcement when, after watching War Games, I wrote a script to "war dial" connection strings on the local Tymnet POP. Turns out one of the systems I connected to was the backend clearing system for Credit Suisse. They were neither happy nor had a sense of humor. After logs showed I didn't try to steal money or do anything damaging I got my computer back in a couple of weeks.

A couple of takeaways:

a. Credit Suisse did not have a username / password to log in. They were using "security by obscurity" in 1980.

b. The local FBI guys in Dallas didn't know you could purchase a modem for a couple hundred bux and hook it up to a $1000 personal computer. They seemed truly surprised to discover I wasn't part of a well-funded white collar crime syndicate and just a kid in jr. high school whose parents eventually gave in when I begged for a modem for a couple months.

c. You can apparently do damage to your reputation at 300 baud.

> The customer didn't pay for a car with heated seats.

Well, when you buy a car your payment gives you ownership of the entire car.

There may not be a written contract or specification explicitly saying that the valves in the tyres are included in the deal, but they're your property nonetheless (in the absence of obvious errors like the dealer letting you drive the wrong car off the lot)

The customer paid for a car with heated seats present but inoperable. If the customer wants to modify their property, that's their business.

The conservative-majority court rejected policies used by many U.S. colleges and universities to use race as one of multiple factors in admissions in order to boost enrollment of Black, Hispanic and certain other minority students. Blum's group had argued that such programs discriminated against white and Asian American applicants.

Discussions about this topic usually happen with nobody bothering to verify, or even explicitly state, their assumptions about the demographics of Harvard/the Ivy League. Effectively arguing in the dark. Let's shed some light on the issue:

You're definitely not finding a 2bd/1ba apt in a safe area in DC for that cost, and I've looked. Not anymore.

Look, Arlington is fine. It's a fantastic suburb if looking at it stats wise. It's educated, the foods weirdly good, and the schools are good. That said, it's pretty interchangeable with a lot of new build suburbs across the country but expensive with pretty awful traffic. You could put me in most places in Arlington and I couldn't tell you what state I was in. To me that's just not a place that has the type of character I'm looking for. I'd rather a shittier place that has some soul, than Arlington. It's why I loved Richmond much more than anywhere I lived in Arlington.

Obviously this is all personal opinion. But I've definitely noticed that certain types of people struggle to be in the NOVA area, so they leave. The people left are people I struggle to relate to. Doesn't mean they're bad people, they're just not my people
No because Netflix is not a one time purchase, it allows to use the service for as long as you have an active subscription. Also you should know that the download function is limited to 100 titles.

If the game had a base cost of 0 and a monthly price to play it it would be acceptable. Quake Live worked like this and I believe Game Pass.

I've only found this to be true on the internet. In the real world, it is much less common.

Yeah but that’s what I’m also getting at. It’s the kind of ritualised control that’s done in a very baroque way and in total plain sight, but nevertheless slips under the radar or virtually everybody, or the confusion around it leads to even articles like the one posted thinking that “King Charles” owns those lands, when in reality it’s a corporation he’s the frontman for, same as he’s the frontman for the British state. Being the frontman for one isn’t identical with being the frontman for the other, yet hardly anyone even notices, including the author of the article.

What I’m saying isn’t even controversial, it’s simple to look up. I’m not some “believer” in a conspiracy. It’s just that how an entity such as “The Crown” wields its power is done in a way that confuses almost everyone, because it’s not really an entity like any other, being some hybrid of government, corporation, trust, club, society, and one whose members all do other things and are embedded in other roles in the state, so it’s both clear and in plain sight while actually being totally weird and hidden. Just go to the Square Mile in London - you’re in London and not, both at the same time, and there’s no passport control, but it’s nevertheless some kind of alternate domain that’s privately, not state, controlled at its fundamental level. It’s not woo woo, it’s just how it operates, and has been doing for about 1000 years.

See also the Dutch East India Company - a private company / entity that acted as if it was a state, because it had the backing of the Dutch state, and why not, it may as well be the state given it’s on the other side of the earth and there’s nobody to stop it acting like one.
But if you have 100 backend servers that mostly communicate on the internal network/VPC and need their IPv4 mostly for updates, it seems easy to justify standing up a proxy and reconfiguring your template. At least if your engineers aren't in Silicon Valley and thus don't cost you $400/h.
Maybe you find “CRUD” apps boring…? (Which is quite a reasonable view. Nothing wrong with CRUD, but it might simply not be everyone’s idea of fun.)
Some people don't want to pay for a 4th bedroom. Turns out the builder found it cheaper to just include the extra bedroom rather than differentiate on blueprints. What's the big deal? The ability to change your mind and increase your mortgage without having to deal with construction in the future seems like a nice bonus. Everyone wins.

Cars are property. It would be absurd to think portions of my property are off limits to me. The best part about all of this, is that none of these car manufacturers are going to win, it's a rat race and plenty of people are going to buy the cheapest car and mod the car software. I actually love it. I also love how the people doing this have physical access to their property and nobody can stop them.

What does “changing loans” mean? Some people might lose equity if they bought when prices were highest. But they would also be able to buy at a cheaper price. Either way, maintaining a few people's equity is not society's goal.

The only reason a loan is harder to get when interest rates increase is because the monthly payment at a given principal goes up, and so the lender needs to see more income to trust the borrower will be able to pay. If the price goes down, and hence the principal goes down, then the monthly payment goes down, so the lender needs to see less income to trust the borrower will be able to pay.
Own it. You're hardly alone.

Let everyone else travel as a herd. It's cliched, but you're clearly the type of person who thinks outside the box. That makes you a trailblazer.
That's fair, but a truck with the same payload and rated range will do much better at hauling bikes.
That doesn't follow, because the reason is that IP addresses are scarce.
I believe HR is commonly targeted by attackers, precisely because they have access to sensitive personal information on their employees. I used to work at a company where a high-level HR employee received an email purporting to be from the CEO, asking for a list of all employees and SSN's. Rather than asking critical questions about this request, they simply collected the requested information into a spreadsheet and emailed it to the attacker. Presumably all of our information was subsequently sold to identity thieves.
If they have no need to why would they?
That would be a better comparison (with bundling a game and DLC into single binary) if Netflix insisted that you keep those files on disk past your subscription period. If they did that, yes. But since they don't, no.
We don't care about any of that; we just care about HN discussions being fresh and interesting vs. tedious and boring. Generic flamewar tangents are the latter, especially when they're re-repeated as often as this one has, so please don't take threads in those directions.

If you have a substantive point to make about resale value, or something like that, that's totally fine, as long as you do it in a way that isn't flamefodder/snark/name-calling.

For my personal computers, I primarily use linux. For work computers I advocate for linux based servers and have succeeded in a few cases but I can't get rid of windows for our end-users.

However, as a sysadmin I uninstall as much spyware as possible from our images and add any non-service interrupting blocks that I can to make it difficult for M$ to spy on my coworkers.

That statement is a follow up to my earlier argument (in the GP comment) which includes substance. But saying "I have never seen evidence so there must not be evidence" is a clear logical fallacy.
That's a trivial / statisically insignificant issue - foreign visitors on exit visa shit list is triple digits (less than rounding error) and most know they're on shit list and wont return unless coerced too. Other groups of concern are those PRC doesn't want in country anyway, they'd get filtered out at VISA stage. Not to mention majority of inbound visitors to are predominantly diasphora not tourism.

Biggest issue is ticket price to PRC exploded especially Q1 (range of this article) right after end of zero covid and PRC consulate have massive backlog of visa and paperwork to process. Most of the diasphora I know wants to return but won't because too expensive or can't because paperwork. There's also UKR war + US/PRC disputes over resuming flights drama with respect to overflights over RU territory = current US to PRC routes was like 5% precovid a few months ago.

WSJ article trying to imply marginal foreign tourism numbers is a problem - then admits it impacts PRC little relative to tourism dependent countries). Meanwhile PRC domestic tourism surged due to people being stuck in country (covid controls + now expensive tickets). Relatively RoW has much more problem with lack of PRC outbound tourist then PRC lack of inbound tourism what is also backstopped by raising domestic tourism.
Absolutely. That's what makes it hard. It feels like wasted time and effort.

I don't do woodworking, but I do fairly complicated electronics projects as a hobby, and a similar effect happens. I made a special display case where I put those failed projects on display, next to the final successful one.

> Now lets talk about CO2 output of driving around extra dead weight

We're talking about a few grams of extra weight on an ICE vehicle over 1.5 tons, if not even an SUV over two tons. If you put a spare bottle of water in your car you'll most likely have similar dead weight.

Now, I get where you're coming from, but the amount of dead weight this adds is so miniscule compared to the general overhead any modern vehicle carries that making this argument is borderline disingenuous.
What this is referring to is that the AWS SDK is built into the Risor binary. This means that using Risor you can call any AWS API without needing to install extra packages/dependencies/etc.
I suspect doing so would probably draw some major anti-trust scrutiny.
In the early 90's I worked for Louisiana State University's AG Center purchasing department and had a mainframe TSO account. I figured out how to use Gopher to various other research universities and download weather satellite photos and other various weather data (sometihng I was interested in at the time). I was then able to subsequently use Zmodem downloads over a 3270 dial up session to do this from home. I thought being able to get this info was pure magic at the time, since it was primarly only available to researchers.

My supervisor got the next month's TSO departmental chargeback bill for my user account from the University's IT group, and it was tens of thousands of dollars of TSO time :). They told me "don't do that anymore"
If the models aren't available in a repo for download do they actually exist?
> Given that most of that list is meat farms, that would be a lot of forests, a lot of carbon storage, and a lot of biodiversity.

No, most of those farms are in Australia, and they're so big because it's so arid. They're not taking the place of forests.

Hot take. IPv6 adoption is never going to hit 100% because SNI routing covers most of the cases people actually need. If UDP functionality is necessary QUIC will be used. I wish this wasn't the case. It would be nice if the software was good enough that more people were enabled to self host.

Ouch... The psychology is not science, though. It is kind of shamanism that is trying to be science. Raven progressive matrices are measuring your statistical biases in the first hand. The better you solve the patterns in this test, the more often you'll jump to conclusions on a base of insufficient data. And that is what they call an IQ. I have passed that test with a very high score, and I was surprised this test was as easy, and my results were as high. Then I had to think about this test for a while. The problem that I fight in myself (jumping to conclusions with little statistical evidence and insufficient data) for decades is regarded as high IQ. Bullshit.Disclaimer: I probably jumping to conclusion right now based on my own test, which is not a statistical evidence.
