I completely agree and that's what I was trying to say with the "right up to the line" part but you explained it more succinctly and clearly, thank you.

In addition, not every discussion/content belongs everywhere. I've seen "well if people upvote it then they like it and it should stay" argument made before and I've also seen it fail. Memes, jokes, or the more extreme example, porn, might get upvotes but that doesn't mean it belongs in a certain community. That's not to say any of those things are bad or don't have a place but not every place needs to cater to or allow them.

Some people want spaces to hang out that don't discuss politics and/or want to stay laser-focused on a certain topic and that's ok but some people see that and scream "censorship!". What it really comes down to is that person wants to say whatever _they_ want to say, but they certainly don't want a real "free speech zone" because that would drive them away too in the end. No, they want an exception to the rule for themselves and when they don't get it they cry foul.
Is it possible to add SD XL support for this?

I'd love a colab notebook if anyone has the skill and time to do so.
I'm pretty ignorant on which is the best self hosted LLM for such a task or how to fine-tune it. Do you know of any resources on how to set that up?

It seems like llama2 is the biggest name on HN when it comes to self hosting but I have no idea how it actually performs.
Indeed, this cannot be a solution for most of the business out there, as date and time are tied together to ingest a certain event. But this could be an easy fix for some businesses
So much wrong in this article, but some things are correct. First a smaller rim and higher profile tire wouldn't have prevented the problem. Whatever was hit was hard enough to knock a dime-sized hole in his tire. That's almost three quarters of an inch or 18 mm for the rest of the world. This isn't some light scrubbing on the sidewall or damaging your rim from a curb scrape. This is full on you blasted into something and poked a god-awful-sized hole into the side of your tire. No profile is going to save you from that.

Second the trend of using these wheels and tire combinations is partially because consumers want that look but primarily for stability of these obnoxiously sized chassis to body ratio that people want in vehicles. Partially due to emissions standards and partially due to ride comfort manufacturers are using car chassis and bolting on effectively high profile truck bodies to them (that's your typical crossover). You put on a 14-in rim with a 75% sidewall tire you have a handling nightmare that will result in rollovers. Sticking a large rim with a small profile tire greatly reduces that.

Lastly, yes larger rims are heavier and result in more unsprung weight but the trade-off is (for a factory setup) always worth it for increased handling and stability. This can reduce ride comfort but since you're on a car chassis anyway the suspension is making up the difference for what the tires used to do back in the '80s and '70s and '60s.

This author seriously needs to go find a bone stock car from the mid-70s or even the late 60s and compare it to what he has today. I give this your range because bias tires are just garbage and by the late 60s most manufacturers had started installing radials at that point. Still cars were given high profile tires. A sports car would not be uncommon to have a 225 65 R15 tire. Total mush with atrocious handling. Still if you're going to smack curbs enough to put dime-size holes in it the only thing it might save is scratching up your steel rim which was also god awful heavy compared to modern alloy rims that are bigger.

If you want smaller wheels and tires you need to go with smaller overall vehicles. Manufacturers don't do this for looks as their primary reason. They do it because it's what's required to keep the car safe and stable and meet the safety standards that are mandated. Nobody wants smaller cars because the safety rating goes through the floor because smaller cars you can only make them so safe due to the weight constraints of having a smaller car.
I can't help but remember this back and forth between a functional programming geek and a older cynical programmer.

FP: It's terrible functional programming isn't used more.

Cynic: What do you mean? More people use functional programming than anything else.

FP: Wait what?

Cynic: People write more excel spreadsheets than anything else.
I would say that it absolutely deserved to be flagged because it was a comment of little engagement.

It both isn't directly related to the original post, and also didn't even make any particular arguments. It was just a 5 word declaration of fact, that is borderline offtopic.
For a simple HelloWorld or a PoC development a flat list of .java files would work, but once you go past that (20+ files or so) a standardized directory structure is an important element of managing the complexity.

And using the JAVA ecosystem standard makes it easier for fellow/future developers to continue the support and expansion
Social media's addictive loop compels users to share mindlessly
This looks really cool - and as a side note, your diagrams on https://github.com/ergomake/layerform are super clear!

Agree that "preview apps are hard" is a massive bottleneck - especially when specs are evolving and a feature may spend some time being QA'd by technical and non-technical team members before being ready to land. Not to mention that processes for securely populating seed data from recent production data are highly domain-specific!

We've built our own system for preview apps on k8s, with a complex Github action that tries to encapsulate everything we can into a set of helm charts that are installed into a dedicated namespace for all the databases and services for that specific PR.

Of course, this can only go so far, and doesn't easily allow for tracking assets outside of k8s. But given that we can keep many of those shared, we've in part stayed away from Terraform due to adding yet another learning curve - but also for lack of tooling for this shared-some-things-but-not-all per-environment customizability - the exact problem you're solving!

I'm excited to see where this system goes - and am excited to see what value-add layers you build on the UI and governance/cost-control side!
then the US pushes a lot more aircraft through its busy airspace this way

This may be true overall, but San Diego is barely top-25 in the US in passenger traffic.

And Heathrow is busier (even measuring per runway, since it has 2). And both Gatwick and Mumbai handle more flights on a single runway.
The way I see it, it's only the people who don't have concentration camps that have the moral standing to complain about them.

You don't get to play "do as I say not as I do" on the world stage and the US should be laughed off it when it tries (this is happening more and more). That is the cost we pay for being evil.
What is really going on under the hood is this: in large companies, the vast majority of employees are unnecessary. They are kept on because having a lot of people underneath you in the org chart is a status symbol. The more people report to you, directly or indirectly (the latter being preferable because managing direct reports requires actual work) the more power and influence you have, and so people with a lot of people reporting to them tend to command the resources to allow them to accumulate more people who report to them. Actual productivity is a secondary consideration. Being docile and obedient are the primary qualifying factors because most employees are essentially pets for the powerful few, not much different from maintaining a ranch or an aviary or a stable of race horses.
I heard somewhere that one of the particular challenges of Twitter's scale is not the average fanout, but the outliers where millions or tens of millions of users follow a single account. Does your simulation take that into account?
+1 the comparisons are not great. How much engineer-hours did it take to build Rama itself?

The numbers they got for Twitter likely include the time it took to build their infrastructure, common libraries (like finagle,…)
3DS prices have held up pretty well over the last year or so. I keep waiting for them to drop because they make decent retro handhelds, especially when rooted.

Realistically you're either deploying consul on top of 1-N kubernetes clusters, or Nomad.

If deploying on kubernetes, you now have all the problems that come with kubernetes, plus additional problems of trying to get consul working.

I spent a week just trying to stand up a federated multi-datacenter deployment of consul on EKS before my company decided it was too much hassle
Fuck. You guys made me want to grab my ATCQ albums out of the garage. My ears will be far happier than my lower back.

It's actually very easy!

You can abuse the fact that systemctl has the edit subcommand. It meant to modify the existing service file, but nothing means you can't just save it out elsewhere and then modify it.

Additionally, if it's a long running service it should be located where other systemd unit files are located (`$HOME/.config/systemd/user/` for user units, `/etc/systemd/system/` for service units) and just copy them while the unit is still running.

systemd-run --user -u test -t bash
cp $HOME/systemd/user/test.service /new/path/for/test.service

Of course this requires it to live long enough.
Yes, we discussed this at length in the post.
This is a bizzare take. The work nap prevalent in East Asia is taken post lunch. People feel dozey after a meal and a short rest is physically and mentally refreshing. Calling it performative is ridiculous.

I'm afraid I don't understand your question but here are the basics: HN has downvotes (on comments, not submissions). The ability to downvote requires > 500 karma. When a comment gets downvoted, both its point score and the commenter's karma go down (in most cases - it's more complicated than that but this is the principle). Does that help?
Twitter can (likely) do this, but, similarly, observers can make fun of Space Karen for doing it.

I didn't forget to mention that - it's simply not what the word shadowban means, as I've always understood and used it.

This is a big problem with trying to explain these things - people mean very different things by the same words, and it leads to misunderstanding.
DynamoDB’s DAX cache espouses the same approach.

A thief like that doesn't steal just one package. Multiple thefts like that can easily add up to a felony amount. This is why the theft still should be reported. The cops won't look for that package specifically, but they could bust that thief for something else.
Nearly all LLMs will be multi-modal
You should run your own LLM if you can. Just keep in mind that many hobby users simply cannot do that. They represent the majority of LLM users - not the majority of power users. These people will struggle to use LLMs without some technical support, not because they cannot learn, of course they can, mostly because it is not their priority. LLMs as a technology needs to be made more widely accessible by making it open-source, so folks can run their own instances if they decided to do so, but also hosting it and providing it as a service for those who simply do not have the skills or desire to run them themselves.
It will affect categories of business users (programmers) who currently embrace terraform: amazon, google, microsoft, oracle, alibaba cloud.

Like it or not, cohorts of engineering organizations like the above (cloud providers) have a very outsized weight and already have contender products they can choose to vigorously fund tomorrow.

From the article:

The license does not allow you to use Terraform if you meet both of the following conditions:
You are building a product that is competitive with HashiCorp.
You embed or host Terraform in your product.

My $0.02: the management of hashicorp is following a stupid trend and should have thought about their customers more.

It will come out to what lawyers think, I guess. Lawyers usually say no to things with poorly established precedent.
Where would he be vs current baseline of $220B?
Thanks, this is a good idea for a another post.

The basic operation Rama provides for evolving an application over time is "module update". This lets you update the code for an existing module, including adding new depots, PStates, and topologies.
Interesting. I knew about the difficulties of the micro in BW but didn't think it would be the defining feature of the game like that. Maybe those elements can still be "fixed" while keeping the balance of the races, with same units and tech trees. At the very least I think it could be worked around in order to let new players enjoy the game as well, and maybe ramp up to using those advanced techniques.

I think fighting games like Tekken, Street Fighter are good examples here. Tekken has largely remained the same game, with the same moves, with new features built on top. Every sequel is expected to maintain this transfer of the core "rules" (not necessarily mechanics) such that players can master their Tekken skills over decades. Also, you have SF6 adding a new "assisted" controls for new players. This allows a stepping stone for players to later reach the harder controls which are equivalent to the 300 APM micros in SC.

RTS has to make a comeback. It's like a better version of chess, if only game companies would innovate the genre in that direction.
And once you buy 6 4090s for 6x24=144, and add the other components, you are not that far off from 15k. The 4090s are still a bit cheaper and with a more standard setup, but it's close enough to consider the alternative.
Nice!

Minor typo nit: the ::placeholder bold selector name has been copy-pasted in the sections for ::selection and ::marker.

To the extent this is true, the only counterforce I can think of is competition.

Companies like this can be outcompeted by others that manage to be less bloated, at least for the moment.
I enjoyed writing React functional components a lot. But the leaky abstractions spoiled all the fun. This is why I like Solid. Never think about what gets why when rerendered, if it's necessary or not, using memo or not, ...
IANAL but it doesn’t seem like much, unless you’re planning on building a terraform-as-a-service company to compete directly with hashicorp. Honestly I’m not surprised given hashicorp’s enterprise offering are basically just… hosting the .tfstate file for you? I still can’t figure out what their upsell is.
Here's 2min & 57 seconds that sums it up.

Bill & Balmer didn't even have an agreement with Seattle Computer Products when they pitched it to IBM. They waltzed in, lied & said they HAD IT and they could SELL IT knowing it could go into millions of computers. Then, they bought it for chump change from SCP. SCP was a tiny nothing of a company.

It's like finding a homeless guy with a stamp collection & buying his Inverted Jenny for $1,000 USD knowing damn well it's worth over $1.5M USD (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverted_Jenny). Is it illegal? No. Is it greedy and cruel for no good reason? Absolutely. Did it help SCP? Sure. Just like it helps the homeless guy to have a thousand dollars while you keep $1.5M simply because you could take advantage of him and there was nothing he could do about it.

Again. Gates is a liar and a thief. It's probably damn lucky for him Epstein "hung himself" in that jail cell. Otherwise, we'd probably have proof a few more choice names to call him as well.
From UPS's website, the average package delivery driver earns $140k in total comp (incl. benefits). The average long-haul driver is $170k.

Some high school friends drive for UPS (local package trucks). It's a solid income, but it's not a walk in the park either. They have quotas to meet. And late Fall through late Winter is a mad-house. That said, I believe they're union and both will be retiring well before me.

Only one worth mentioning though apparently
It sounds like you would prefer a reporting system where Status is the priority item. That's totally fine, especially if your child is in danger. I agree! I'm just pointing out that that is not the reporting system offered for consideration in this article, where Status is relegated to second place.
This call should be extended to governments and public utilities, maybe with some instructions of easier onboarding.
I think you will be affected by the bigger picture. Mongo did this move also but there they were mostly in control before and after. Here there is a huge community of plugins. If before AWS shared a provider without hesitating, now they will ask themselves why contribute to a closed and possibly competitor garden.

I did performative work for a while. The company I worked for was purchased by another company, a huge national company.

The new managers had us submit paperwork detailing what our job duties were. I saw what was coming and simply didn't turn anything in. I slipped right through the cracks.

I ended up assigning myself tasks and variously worked with IT and engineering. Each group thought I was attached to the other group. I kept myself busy most days, but some days I'd surf the internet and essentially do nothing but keep my seat warm.

Most fun were two projects I started. I convinced management that our UPS was insufficient and that our SAN was trash. At my behest, what we ended up with was gigglingly massively overspecced and overpriced. The UPS got its own room and was stunning when it was finished. The president of the company even commented on how amazing it was. He looked at the new LCD screens on my desk and I told him they save piles of electricity over CRT's. Very shortly afterwards, every desk had brand new LCD's.

Not bad for a guy with no boss and no job title.
I looked and didn't see any such news. Do you have any links?
this is similar to other opencore debacles, Hashicorp wants you to use their managed Terraform rather than someone else's integration. This means that if you choose TF today for you managing your IaC you'll potentially be locked into using Hashi products down the road. The community is all but guaranteed to fork TF which means that over time the two forks will diverge and you'll have a bad time when trying to read docs, debug, contribute fixes.
You can continue to use plain Terraform forever. It would only affect you if you use a tool like Env0, spacelift, Gruntwork pipelines, etc instead of something like the Terraform Cloud.

These tools are not going to be able to be used with users using new Terraform versions (though they can always use the current or any previous versions, or can use their fork these companies are jointly supporting).

Then there are open source tools that don't directly compete with Hashicorp that are in a bit of a gray area, but I've seen Atlantis, Pulumi, OTF, and other tools all claim that this does not affect them. I would presume this could also apply to things like Terratest, Terragrunt, etc. but I don't know. I am not a lawyer.

And if none of these company/product names are familiar to you, then you shouldn't have any noticeable difference :)
As a regular end-user, the main difference in the licenses is that it forks the ecosystem. If the fork goes ahead, and you were using some HashiCorp products and some software that is moving to OpenTF, eventually you won't be able to use that combination of tools any more. So you will have to pick what license you are going with, even if you don't care about the license directly.

Re archive.is - see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37130177
As a Free Software advocate and supporter, I'm thinking about the answer to this question:

- MPL is a weak-copyleft license, which allows companies to grab and run Terraform codebase, provide it as-is (as Terraform), or as white-labeled Terraform compatible feature/layer. This is alright (because license allows this).

- These people also contribute their own fixes upstream, which is great, and maintain their own patches if Hashicorp decides to reject them (which is fine, too, this is how ecosystem works).

But, HashiCorp says that, the thing we develop (i.e. Terraform) is used by others and generate revenue for them, this is great, but we can't generate enough revenue from it to keep the company afloat and continue providing TerraForm development, and sell it as a product at the same time.

What should they do? I'd advocate AGPL, but xGPL licenses are avoided like a plague, because Free Software is not "closed forks" friendly, and companies hate to open everything like that.

BSL is neither Free nor Open, which we all hate, but it allows HashiCorp to survive to a degree (this is not a fact, this is what HashiCorp is thinking).

So, just because people adapted it, and HashiCorp cannot survive, should they say, we're closing shop, it's all MIT now, do whatever you want, bye!?

Weak copyleft licenses are not designed for software that big. Or they assume that the developing party is untouchable. Strong copyleft solves this, but companies hate it because its unrelenting transparency.

What should we do?

P.S.: I neither endorse, nor support BSL, or HashiCorp's decision (or any company treads the same path).

Edit: I mistyped MPL as permissive instead of weak-copyleft. Corrected, sorry.
