It's unlikely. As people live longer but want to retire at a similar age to their parents demand for risk assets is going to be even higher in the future.

I mean, as much as interest rates have dramatically risen recently, real yields on 30 year UK government debt (as measured by the inflation-linked gilt yield) are at ~1%. That's just not going to cut the mustard given how little people are able or willing to save in to their retirement fund.

To give you an idea, the difference between a 1% real return and a 4% real return, investing monthly over a 30 year horizon, is having 64% more in retirement.

Around that time it was normal to have your own language if you were a big enough company. It made sense because "universal" languages were quite low quality (or there were commercial languages you had to buy). But, maybe there wasn't really much of thinking / planning put into it. It was just what everyone was doing. People sort of expected it. I think, mostly people thought about it as convenience, as in having all tools under your control...

I worked for two such companies, but it was already the time when having your own in-house language started to feel weird. I believe that both transitioned to using something generic quite a while ago.
Because people like being able to read texts that already exist, so switching to a different writing system is usually a downgrade.

(Also, learning to write English probably consumed more of your time than just a Saturday per week.)
802.11 (wifi) uses ARP also.

I meant that it's typically (for end users) the protocol between the wireless interface (MAC) and network gateway (IP) now, rather than:

> the missing link between your MAC address (what Ethernet runs on) and your IP
And even if it is representing a moment of time, it may not be representing exactly sixty seconds. It could in fact be an idiom representing an indeterminate longer interval:

This particular usage has been around, colloquially, for a minute.

Haha I did that a lot! the sequence became hardwired in muscle memory, like when you learn to solve a Rubik's cube and moving this to that becomes second nature.
> if your latest migration is destructive - you want to seed data and then run the next migration.

We have added supabase migration up [0] command that runs only pending migrations (ie. those that don't exist in local db's migration history table). You can use that to test destructive migration locally with data from seed.sql.

After testing, you want to update your seed.sql with a data-only dump [1] from your local db. That would make CI happy with both the new migration and the new seed file.

> 2. run a preseed script that disables any triggers and removes default data that has been previously seeded in migrations

It sounds like the default data is no longer relevant for your local development. If so, I would suggest running supabase migration squash [2] to remove the default data.

To disable triggers before seeding data, you can add the following line to seed.sql [3]

SET session_replication_role = replica;

Show HN: DomainHacks – no more boring .coms
Hi folks, I am Till, the solodev behind the little side project domainhacks.info.
The story began 7 years ago, when I taught myself coding using the good old LAMP stack. This was my very first project and was as-is on the internet for the next 7 years. Fast-forward to beginning of the year, when I got laid off during the great startup recession. I needed something to entertain me and I decided to revamp the whole site using NextJS and FaunaDB.
Now, the site has 15 unique hacking methods like LEET hacks and phonetic hacks, using all 1466 available TLDs.
I've also just introduced pricing tiers after the previous affiliate program only earned $60 despite over 2000 (possible) domain registrations in the previous 7 years. Try it out with keywords 'grapefruit', 'awesome', or 'outrageous' for a sneak peek of all results. However, with the free tier you'll already get 99.99% of the good results.
Happy to discuss the tech stack, features, feedback and lessons learned!
Ha, that's some intense spite over EDNS.
Google search ranking involves lots of neural networks nowadays.

There is no way the PR team making that tweet can say for sure that deleting old content doesn't improve rank. Nobody can say that for sure. The neural net is a black box, and it's behaviour is hard to predict without just trying it and seeing.
XRes was interesting, it would do all the imaging operations at reduced resolution to make them work quickly, and then when you saved the document it would perform all the actual work at full res. It sort of worked, but saving could appear to be really slow.

> You can learn a lot of Group Theory trying to make a mental model of how the rotations work

I didn't have a clue what group theory was back then (I was 10yo or something), but I clearly remember discovering these. Pretty sure it ended up become formative for my surprisingly quick group theory understanding in later maths class.
I think OP’s point is, even “influencers for all kinds of niches” are still… trying to either sell you something or pushing some version of propaganda. It’s the same across all industries and social medias. Opening Twitter and accidentally scrolling through “For You” feed kinda shows how awful tech influencers are as well.

I think the difference between the “private” development of Dragon and the “government” development of Mercury is exaggerated.

Like Dragon, the Mercury capsule was (mostly) designed and (entirely) built by a private contractor, McDonnell Aircraft.

Like Mercury, Dragon was designed and built with input and strict oversight from NASA, including a contingent permanently on-site with the contractor. NASA always had total visibility and the final say on everything.

There are some important differences in the contracting models of the two programs, but a lot of the “private”/“commercial” framing of the ISS crew/cargo programs is just leftover vibes from the 2000s when ”harnessing the dynamic private sector” was the way to frame a new program that you wanted to get funded.
It falls into an “identity fraud” bucket. When vendors mistake knowledge of information for message authentication.

In a more typical scenario, a piece of knowledge maybe a name, an address and ssn and a message is a request for a loan from the bank. In this case a piece of knowledge is the name only, and the unauthenticated message is an AI gibberish.
This article raises some interesting points. However, it is lacking in references (I checked them) so much so, that it seems little more than an opinion piece.
A similar reason why US hasn't switched from imperial units, just way bigger.

The current system works, replacing it would be a massive multi-decade long change with a lot of opposition. Cultural pride/arrogance plays a big role. It's not inconceivable to think that the Chinese regime might fall in the process if it tried to pull it off. Given all these, the benefits just don't outweigh the costs/risks, at least in the horizon of the next 100 years.
Because our alphabet doesn’t work for tonal languages and inventing a new one requires a king
Human-rating the then-new Falcon 9 launch vehicle was part of SpaceX’s award for Commercial Crew starting in 2011, and the launch vehicle did not delay the program, so I think it counts. Falcon 9 had flown twice when NASA made the initial award, it certainly wasn’t a proven launch vehicle and it’s easy to imagine it tanking the whole program if it went differently.
it's always interesting to see when a group of people extract value of a resource without giving any back get the end of the stick. maybe the users themselves who are the cause of it. pretty sure the vast majority of moq users never donated to it in the first place.

Dissecting the anatomy of a ‘superheroic’ science class
I mean, contractual terms that are implied by statute exist. In English consumer contract law—which since 2015 has been extended due to the EU Consumer Rights Directive to cover digital content—includes an implied term that the goods are of satisfactory quality, and when it's a continuing service (including something like a digital content service like Netflix or Spotify, or a software product with updates), it doesn't radically depart from what's initially offered.

See https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/2015/15/part/1/chapter/...

Most jurisdictions have something broadly similar (albeit often not quite up-to-date around software and digital products). Everywhere in the EU will have laws that implement the EU's Consumer Rights Directive.

Which is great and would apply if you'd paid money for it. NightOwl is free (as in beer). The expectations the law sets out regulating the sale of goods and services do not apply when no money has changed hands.

Which I'd argue is pretty much right: while it sucks that companies get taken over and have spyware crap put into products, the idea that, say, a teenager who is hacking around and building stuff to learn how to code, puts up a project they've made as open source or a freeware download, does something silly like the left-pad debacle, then gets sued—potentially by a big corporate behemoth with very deep pockets and very scary lawyers—for a series of acts which involved them writing some software for no money. Regulation of technology should rest far heavier on the shoulders of Google, Microsoft, Apple and so on than it does on a hobbyist or small indie dev creating freebie menubar utilities or Chrome extensions or whatever.

The difficulty of ensuring those little freebie and open source apps don't become a vector for supply chain attacks remains difficult. Much better sandboxing and OS app-level permissioning, good network monitoring and anomaly detection on a per-app level, and building trust into packaging/distribution processes - these are all slow, grinding, incomplete ways to improve this. Lawsuits probably aren't.
> Do you know? Care to explain?

I'm not a historian. But in the history, actually there was an attempt to "romanize Chinese".[1] And it failed. It's a complex issue, mostly a political one, and to say there is one single reason that it failed would be a gross simplification.

My anecdote is:

1. Chinese is a very "easy-to-read, hard-to-write" writting system. It's compact and information dense compared to alphabet based system.

2. There are too many homophones. In a daily conversation, you provide extra context with body language and your tone. But in a written context you have no such tools. All you have is "icons".

Stripe's manual service may be replaced by ChatGPT
Using Stripe After Two Weeks. In that short time, a few of our funds were held up. We provided our ID and face photos as required and our account was re-enabled. But just three days later, after receiving another order, our account was again closed.

We've provided all the necessary documentation for an appeal, except for our new company's bank statement, which we currently don't have.

Every email we've sent to Stripe has been met with silence, save for a generic acknowledgment. Post-document submission, we received a mere closure notification.

The major concern here is that the products we've already sold are about to be refunded. However, we've already shipped those products, which means we're about to incur a loss for both the product and the money.

We sell clothing. Here's our website:magicwardrobes.com

I've come to realize that Stripe's security and review team seems extremely busy. Anybody else facing similar issues?

And if there are any Stripe employees lurking on HN today, could you please shed some light on this situation?
Becauses strokes convey meaning beyond sounds.
Football (and most other similar sports) offer more chances for creativity and variation than batting in baseball. Hitting a baseball is a very narrow and defined task with limited room for novel development or breakthroughs. Unless there are significant rule changes in baseball we're not going to see any batters revolutionise the act of batting in any meaningful way.

Getting a ball past several defenders and scoring a goal on the other hand can be done in a near infinite number of ways, meaning there is much more room for variation, improvement and evolution.

The closest equivalent I can think of in football is a penalty kick, and I don't think there is any evidence that players are getting significantly better at scoring off penalties.

Non-experts build their own houses even in developed countries. For example there is a subcommunity of folks helping each other to build DIY houses out of straw bale https://www.homebuilding.co.uk/ideas/67k-straw-bale-self-bui...

Self-sufficiency and other "simple" things are possible in developed countries, they are just intrinsically hard and this is probably a good limiting factor because basically lots of things (eg foraging) don't generally scale if a lot of people want to do them.
You are describing corporate red tape for your organization. Those things were already possible before the cloud hype of last 5-8 years.

Anyway the point is also not that cloud didn't solve any issues but that by solving 1 issue, you get 5 new issues, and you solve one of those and you get again 5 new ones. And the loop keeps going endlessly.

How many words did you memorize in English?
All it's inconsistencies like butcher were the pronunciation isn't recognizable from the spelling.

Is it read or read?

I doubt you can simply map the pronunciation of the chinese spoken languages to the latin alphabet.

And that's only the words, you also need grammar and different languages have tenses that don't even exist in other languages. Just compare Hebrew to English.

After that you need to train a billion people, you still need to conserve the knowledge of language or all the historical written texts are lost.

increasing unemployment

That is irrelevant, because of how it's measured: 1 person working 40 hours/week and 9 people not working gives an unemployment of 90%, but 10 persons working 4 hours/week gives an unemployment of 0% -- yet both scenarios have the same amount of work. Of course using part-time jobs reduces the unemployment figures. It says nothing, however, about the availability of work.
Harvesting the algae is one of the problems, but the more pertinent problem that breaks the economics is that the energy density at the generation point just isn't good enough. Going from sunlight to biodiesel via algae seems to have single-digit efficiency.

To be clear: I speaking somewhat in jest, and I'm not really talking about academic versus industrial programming. I'm snarkily referring to the fact that that many developers didn't see the value in a lot of Scala's features and labeled Scala as an impractical, over-complicated academic language. And yet: Kotlin has seen great success by spoon-feeding Java devs a lot of those very some features (with the benefit of second-mover advantage).

In terms of actual examples, I'll point to JEP 443, linked in the Java 21 article that kicked off this topic. That feature comes from Scala, by way of Kotlin.

>> To clarify, I was informally referring to the standard correspondence with propositional logic [1], but generalizations of this to include quantifiers also seem possible [2].

The order of logic doesn't matter. That "standard" mapping of probabilities to logic doesn't work with classical logical semantics and with the common assumption that all probabilities sum to 1. I pointed out why in my previous comment: mapping true to 1 and false to 0 makes for too many 1's to fit in the open interval (0,1). The wikipedia article (which lacks relevant references) and the LessWrong post do not stop to address this foundational inconsistency and instead plow on with building on top of it, but they're only building a house of cards: one cannot draw safe inferences from inconsistent assumptions.

As I say, I get the impression that many such attempts to marry logic and probabilities come from people who understand probabilities, but not logic. They might be considered "standard" in communities that simply wish to do away with logic and only have to think about probabilities, but they are a cop-out supported by sloppy thinking.

On the other hand, there are a number of frameworks that avoid the cardinal sin of mapping true and false to 1 and 0, which they do by eschewing classical semantcis, for example Łukasiewicz logic:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%C5%81ukasiewicz_logic

These are the obvious choice of logical semantics if one wishes to combine probability with logic, but somehow I rarely see them used. Possibly because they are not as well-known as propositional logic.

In general, I propose to anyone who is interested in the subject to get at least a functional understanding of classical logic, if not as good an understanding as they have of probabilities and statistics.

>> I'm curious specifically what doesn't fit. I understand there's tension between logic and probability, and learning and human-like reasoning are obviously still burgeoning fields, but the rest seem fairly well explored with plenty of correspondences.

What I mean by "the pieces of the puzzle don't fit" is that the various abstractions we have to describe computation don't work when we try to apply them to human thinking. All the formal systems we have are missing something. Trying to work outside formal systems of course leads away from the realm of science and into the world of wild speculation and wishful thinking.

>> Which is kinda what you'd expect from evolution by natural selection.

I don't follow. Evolution by natural selection should be expected to make us lose all hope of building consistent theories?
... The exact point being that Taiwan by and large does not use simplified Chinese. They are different countries. They speak effectively different languages.
Not the original commenter, but I live in Singapore where I am surrounded by Chinese characters and several Chinese dialects. The first issue is that there isn't one "Chinese" language. Mandarin is dominant as the official language in China, but even here in SG one can still hear Cantonese, Hokkien, Hakka, and a few other dialects. While these each have unique grammars, the characters for the most part can still be understood across dialects (and for languages like Hokkien, have been mapped to those characters). Also, for Mandarin, there are very few distinct sounds (phonemes), even accounting for tones, so there are many, many more homonyms than in, say, English. The characters help disambuguate, whereas spoken or phonetically-written Mandarin relies heavily on context.
DVI was created at that same time. I know some PostScript, but I don't know DVI, so it's hard for me to judge which one is better. DVI though, from the start, wasn't a commercial product, and, I believe, was also "open-source" (even though the term might not have been officially established).

Unfortunately (for DVI) Adobe started off by incorporating PostScript into printing hardware, so there was little reason for anyone in the printing industry to look for alternatives.

It was a huge let down though when Adobe decided to replace PS with PDF. It still kind of is. I think about PDF as being a missed opportunity. Too many things in this format have been poorly designed, and, on top of it, it's forced for the situations where it shouldn't be used (eg. storing official documents) which generates a lot of hate for the format.
If you bothered to Google it, you'd see ENDLESS articles about different events exactly like that.
