This might work for companies that are not able, on their own, to add any text content to their website? I would guess, even badly written content containing the correct keywords, is better than a website with no text paragraphs at all.
Aeroflot was widely regarded as worst international airline (on par with say Nepal airlines but for very different reasons) way before any invasion started. Typical russian mentality and alcoholism is simply not a good match to highly structured and regulated environment of very complex machinery.

Everybody I know tried hard when travelling from Europe to Asia to avoid using them, even when they were often the cheapest.
I'm a huge Firefox fan (both on PC and Android) and I think Firefox for Android on ChromeOS is terrible, practically unusable. I know my Chromebook is cheap but Firefox runs ultra slow. It also randomly flickers to a black screen and crashes occasionally.

I don't know if it's just me or this is just how it runs.
That's not how probabilities combine.
It may be more than the _hosting_ cost, but what about the labour in actually generating that insight or maintaining and updating the content. Or what about recompense for, you know, providing such value in the first place?

'The bare minimum hosting cost' is a pretty poor bar for informational content.

They weren't just given permission I'm sure. A lot of development happened on closed off circuits, and only after those passed could they file a request.

And if that request included "All tests will be done under supervision of a driver that will intervene in case of issues", then... why not?

Plus, if California didn't approve it, these big companies would move their operations to a state that did approve it.
Sorry but i have to comment. Hackernews should not be political but still. In Russia there is currently an all time high support from the current regime. The small moscow bubble you are referring to isnt remotely representing the common Russians. Most of that bubble was anti regime before the war anyway.
Braindrain? You know how many Indians and other nations are currently immigrating to Russia? Tech is booming right now in Russia. Factories are opening everywhere. The whole country is ramping up production. There seem to be unlimited funds (Chinese, Isreal) Investers are pumping a lot of money into the country.
The country is in 100% war mode. It is convinced that it cannot lose the war in Ukraine. And they are probably right. And not everyone hates Russians btw.

You're probably right but my naive hope was that things like PageSpeed insights that measure things like accessibility and page speed would be a part of search rankings.

I went from an average page rank position of 4 for relevant keywords to nothing and now there's 0 growth for views of my site. I'd have been better off just not touching it at all. Sad.

It's going to be a heinously asymmetric exchange. Good longterm trade demands equity. Not equality, but some basic equity. Australia's experience with US trade negotiations is that it's highly distorted and suits America better. The TPP was shedloads better without the US, for everyone else.

I'm not saying it's a bad aspiration, just "be careful what you wish for"

That said, NAFTA wasn't bad for Mexico. There's hope.
This issue is going to get worse once we are a multi-planetary species.
The problem is binary artifacts of compiled software. Those native binaries have hardcoded paths to dependencies and so by changing the location, you're forcing homebrew to compile everything locally to use a different path. It's the same reason Nix is still at /nix, despite the quirky installation requirements it forces on modern Macs with SIP.

There are tools to rewrite links in binaries, but they only work until you get a program calling dlopen or equivalent

I’m still here: back online after a year without the internet (2013)
What I ask myself about this article is if and how the outcome would be different almost 10 years on. "Digital Detox" of course is a thing but rarely if ever does it go beyond a couple weeks, maybe a month. Would we now also see this sort of "diminishing returns" that are also described in the article? Would we experience them faster?
I’m pretty sure we do driver harrowing on purpose, here in Portugal. This is not to excuse rash driving, which is rampant, but rather to indicate the presence of sadistic individuals in our roadway infrastructure safety and design areas.
Everyone likes to say they’d contribute - but the percentage of people who are actually willing to put there hands in their pockets is minuscule.
Just wondering, in what context did you have to do that work? Seems like an interesting rabbit hole to dive into.
Yeah that was this one, the camera doesn't do the actual visibility justice. If it was proven the cyclist wasn't visible, AND the driver was proven to be paying attention, I'm sure she would've been exonerated.

But the driver wasn't paying attention. They were watching stuff on their phone and killed someone. They were responsible for the car, not Uber and its self-driving systems - that she was responsible for testing and overseeing.

I'm kinda happy for her that her punishment is fairly mild - I mean after all she'll have to live with the guilt for the rest of her life - but she's definitely responsible for it.
Now do Chrome on FirefoxOS.
The amount of hyped discussion here on HN based on such scant evidence was astonishing.
My experience with SEO is that it's very easy to rank for sufficiently niche sites with little competition. Even a 1 page site with keywords in the domain and the right H1 and H2 and maybe a paragraph of text.

If you're in a competitive field like a web dev agency imho the only way to rank is is write relevant articles for people looking for an agency to throw thousands of euros at (how much does a site or app cost, how long does it take, what to look out for, what are maintenance costs etc)

If you succeed at educating visitors maybe a few will think that hey these guys seem to know what they're talking about maybe I want to become their client.

It's as "easy" as that. Word of mouth would honestly be a lot better though.

Like they said themselves, "how to create a React slideshow" is irrelevant for a business looking for an agency.

Climate change is just one of many problems our civilization faces.

Our civilization is an extemely complex system.

I appreciate it as much as you do, but its negative externalities endanger both our continued existence and the health of our environment.

The system's rules also harbor numerous inefficiencies and injustices.

You might not agree, but I believe we should address as many of these issues as we can, and do so urgently.

You might feel that minor adjustments to the system are sufficient or that technological progress will eventually provide solutions.

I'm genuinely concerned that such an approach isn't feasible. From my perspective, we need to overhaul the system's rules and reboot it.

Anything less is superficial and inadequate. It might postpone the inevitable decline, but eventually, it will crumble, much like Rome or a Jenga tower.

If you can move beyond the beliefs like the "current system is an immutable physical reality and best possible version" and "anything other than capitalism equals communism," and start to consider even a fraction of the challenges we face — delving deeper and aiming for the system's ideal state (while being wary of local optima) — you'll realize that transformative changes are crucial.

I studied economics in college long time ago and now view much of it as a safeguard, an upholder of status quo, as overly simplistic, even naive. I've lived in both socialism and capitalism, and each of those systems has its own, serious problems. I don't claim to have all the answers, but I'm convinced that addressing the systemic issues is the key to resolving our problems.

I wish I had the time to write a more concise or refined comment. I'm sorry, but unfortunately, I don't. Thank you for the discussion.

Report: https://www.unep.org/resources/emissions-gap-report-2022

As growing climate change impacts are experienced across the globe, the message that greenhouse gas emissions must fall is unambiguous. Yet the Emissions Gap Report (EGR) 2022: The Closing Window – Climate crisis calls for rapid transformation of societies finds that the international community is falling far short of the Paris goals, with no credible pathway to 1.5°C in place. Only an urgent system-wide transformation can avoid climate disaster.
It would be great if they didn't of course. But historically, I've never had issues with kernel patches. In large enough deployments you get everything rolled ahead of the publication, or care enough to run grsec and custom profiles. In smaller ones, the kernel side is far down the list of things you care about.

So yeah, in the ideal world, let's have everything isolated. For now it would be great if they worked at all.

Also... There's a bit of practical limitation to how useful the isolation is. It's cool that the FS module runs in the userspace. But if it can create a suid-equivalent file and point an arbitrary config at it, you're not gaining much.
I won't be surprised if the narrative within Russia reframes this to "Western airplanes are inferior to Russian planes. So for your security we have grounded all Boeings and Airbuses" in near future.

I can only hope this happens before western planes start dropping out of the sky due to missing parts.

>why is it that you can't install any os you want on almost all phones?

Because the OS typically has device specific drivers that are not included in the OS for another phone.

>Even something as basic as a root shell is hard/impossible to have on so many models

What it may seem basic to you is poor design and poor security. The android way is for the OS to expose APIs that to apps to do privileged operations. There is also typically a permission required to use such an API. There shouldn't be a need for the user to use a root shell.

>Why phone model and os are so tightly tied together?

Because the OS is one of the distinguishing features of a phone. It's one of the ways Android phones compete against each other.

He was meticulously careful to omit mention of someone who is, though possibly of ambiguous allegiance, an all-time favorite of Italians, patriots, and Roman Catholics in these United States, to the point where many statues were erected... unfortunately, this proved to be temporary.

I did find this gentleman named on the webpage with Ctrl+F... as a major city in Ohio where you can Find a Therapist!!1

Also totally omitted: religious leaders not counting Michelangelo: surely a few popular Popes or Cardinals are good role models: Pope St. John XXIII? Pope St. Pius X?

And don't forget to mention that Stefani Germanotta is totally Italian, so is she complicit in perpetuating her own stereotype, on screen and stage?

Why, oh why did this supposedly Italian writer close his article with a Spanish word? Another stereotype?

Many believe that F# is better for functional code and C# is better for imperative code. Hence F# immutable core and C# immutable shell.

But I think this is a myth. F# the language is better than C# at most things and certainly better overall. If you are going to use F#, you may as well go all in and get all of the benefits.

For web services, Giraffe or Suave combinators are much easier to reason about than ASP.NET MVC patterns.
> At the start of each year, I produce a small list of 3 to 4 high priority goals and 1 optional low priority goal of what I want to achieve by end of it

This inadvertently made me realise that I am one of those people who will 100% start with the low priority goal because, in this framing, it's likely to be easier and more achievable.

Which is totally not the point. Thank you, Pedro, for the possibly life-changing behaviour nudge.
On GTA III map you can even animate the camera around. That's actually impressive from a technological standpoint.
I have never been to Moscow but I'd guess many of the shielded comfortable 0.1% who live there are people who care the least. They know what's happening is bad but they are "above politics" (that is, supporting the regime by default) and will be until s*t hits the fan. See prices for flights from Moscow to Tbilisi on the day of Prigozhin debacle...

And the other side is people elsewhere in Russia who are not above politics but whose politics are based on watching TV.

The remaining people may well be a minority. Perhaps more than half of people support Putin. That's why it's futile to change from below, if thinking people want revolution they would have to fight their own zombie neighbor first.

Ramping up production, factories every day, not gonna lose to Ukraine smells like another dose of fantasy agitprop itt but I'm v curious to hear more about Israel funding!

And you misread my comment, at least regarding Russian hate by Westerners. I do not see Western people hating Russians in any meaningful way. But I see Russians definitely thinking so. Because that's the image Putin wants them to have. Us vs them.
They're not. C# support is much deeper and more solid.

I am 100% in agreement here. A lot of the shady practices thrown around by agency operators in the name of getting you leads, and showing you busy work. Social, SEO, PR, all are the same.

Everyone promises a bunch of future results and charges on basis of work done not on outcome.

At the end of the day as an operator and a founder you first need to figure out what works for you and use an agency only for scaling what you know works. Bring the agency for operating and not for strategy at all.

Even for scaling you need to have the playbook dry and cut. If you get the agency to sell you snake oil by promising leads by doing work, or getting you from 0-1 with a channel it never ever works out.

A whole lot of agencies go about doing a bunch of copy-paste work and well designed reports all to keep you chasing mirages that never manifest.
There's nothing petty here, it's just semantics.

When people use the word Linux they have a specific definition in mind which may or may not match the definition you have in mind. Some (you included I assume) think that the definition should include Android and some (like myself) think that it shouldn't include Android.

People will continue to use the definition they find to be the most useful, and the less useful definitions will eventually become niche. For me, defining Android (or ChromeOS) as Linux is not useful since it does not live up to any of the properties that make Linux useful to me. For me, calling Android "Linux" is like calling a table a stool. It may technically be appropriate (I can technically sit on it, it has no back support, etc.) but not useful (for example, it would be awkward to place a table in front of a dining table for use as a stool).

For another such example you can look at how the game genre Roguelike transformed from meaning "Similar to the game Rogue" to "Having procedural content generation" and how RPG means "You can level up" (though it feels like in recent years the term is starting to morph into "Has a story we think is worth following").
for a company like this, the real reason is because you can give users 0% return while on the backend actually making return with their money, same as any "bank" that holds usd.

Hey Richie,
As you seem to support the Kafka + Kinesis(?) API:
We have developed Kadeck (kadeck.com), a control plane and collaboration layer for Kafka & Kinesis teams. I have looked at the documentation and reckon we should be supporting a lot of Warpstream already. Is there any quick way to test this out? Would love to share this with our users!

Whether dead or alive, there's no denying that Kafka, or data streaming in general, is one of the most exciting fields today. Happy to welcome a new member!
- Nothing against Russian researchers, but apart from Iris who is somewhat anonymous and doesnt have the required equipment to create good samples, I havent seen anyone from there interested in performing expts on this

- There have already been some retractions from China after the initial replication claims. I get the feeling they have been overeager about this to prove themselves. Maybe if they approach this with cooler heads, they could be depended on more.

- When i said western labs, i spiritually include japan, taiwan, south korean labs in that, since they generally have similar practices and rigor (even if geographically they are in the east)

It's actually impressive Lex is this bad at something he has been doing for so many years.
Only as a side note, trying to debunk stereotypes about Italians (being uneducated) and closing the (IMHO poor) article with:

which is not at all Italian does not help much.

Is "Salud!" something that Italian-Americans (or their Hollywood representations) use?

In general it should just be smashed into smithereens by a thousand hammers, because it can't be trusted with anything important anyway. Can you imagine what would happen if a bank actually trusted a client device and then somebody broke the attestation? That's not how ATMs work. You make a deposit and the funds are not available the same day, and it's not because their computers are too slow.

The only thing it's good for is anti-competitive prohibitions on interoperability, which only works if the law makes it illegal for competitors to extract the keys and use them.
>This is plain false. Sent from my Librem 5, which I daily drive.

But what does this prove? The market share isn't there for these devices. Even the vast majority of hardcore Linux fans daily drive iPhones or Androids and only use those toys for tinkering. You being a Librem 5 user doesn't move the needle on how niche these devices are in the wild.
