My point was you can be unhappy with the system and not be mentally ill.

When I was in school STEM was not considered the only path to success. The oft repeated argument was you're a better candidate for high level jobs with something like an English degree than somebody with no degree at all, which turned out to be pretty terrible advice. I only had one teacher who said that was a terrible idea (he compared it to a degree in underwater basket weaving).

ForgeFed is the noblest attempt to decentralise git after GitHub made it popular.

It is potentially more DDoS resistant and secure, since your git web front-end (e.g. Forgejo) only needs to record ping-like messages, and you can react to them in your time, separate from public interfaces.

This is really my problem with the "don't encrypt anything static" argument. I don't encrypt for security (or at least not primarily; I am not under the illusion that encryption makes my data unassailable) but for privacy.

There is a big difference between every jump between me and example.com seeing "example.com" or "example.com/so-you-think-you-might-be-heading-for-divorce.html" (just an example; I am happily married, in case my wife ever sees this).

I think if you've spent more than 2 full weeks trying to figure out an effective note-taking system, it's time to just design and build out your own. Nothing will ever be more perfect for you than the one you build for yourself. Mine's at https://github.com/gsuuon/note.nvim

I just wanted easy daily task tracking and timestamped notes at first, now I slowly add things to it. I can deep-link to items or sections in other files (even at different commits) and have helpers that effectively exposes an API for my tasks. Everything else is just standard neovim things, like using Telescope for finding labeled items.

Yes however the risks and costs are on the organization, not the individual. Even if the organization goes bankrupt or catastrophically mismanaged the fund used for the pension, the employee still gets their pension regardless of whether this occurs while or after they are working for the org.

That's the important point. The costs and risks are on the org. They can guarantee the pension with low risk investments or dollar equivalents and have effectively no risk or they can try higher risk investments in an effort to save money but at the end of the day the employee/pensioner gets the amounts promised from the beginning.

I always found the whole ID situation in the US comical.

Using the driver's license as a default document seems like it was an accidental thing. You then get the Department of Motor Vehicles involved in tasks outside their scope (i. e. the parallel non-license ID document), and it guarantees a lack of standardization and then trying to hack it back into place (see: Real ID).

We should have had a meaningful federal ID probably from the 1960s if not earlier-- once it became evident we needed some uniform way to identify people. Whatever department ended up owning it would be the obvious place to provide an API collection, which would probably end up looking a bit like oAuth with a variety of different grants (age, address, citizenship, other qualifications) that would be very evident through the login prompt.

But that would freak the hell out of the Mark of the Beast people.

I spent a lot of time a few years ago helping people trap and neuter their feral colonies, keeping the population under control with the support of the caretakers rather than fighting them.

Unfortunately, this won't solve the problem of feral cats, it only mitigates it. Culling doesn't really seem to work either though. Chemical sterilization is a promising approach, but hard to enact on large scale without sterilizing other species by accident.

Switching between those modes and input paradigms, while maintaining some level of context would be a really great experience.

Despite how popular it seems to be, I think framing it as "it's bad for certain use cases because Apple is evil" is a bit reductionist, and sort of gives up on the power we do have to mold tools to our needs.

I suppose if you want them to eat regularly without bringing them in your home, taking them to a vet to get spayed/neutered before releasing them back outside works just as well at keeping populations down. I'm sure cats regularly fed on tuna and salmon are eating fewer birds and squirrels too.

That said, probably still best to get them indoors where they don't have to worry about being hit by cars or attacked by other animals or any of the other harms in the wild... although it's hard to say if every cat would choose to trade sunshine and freedom for the extra safety and comfort. They are barely domesticated animals that evolved to live outside after all.

You could probably do something similar with that, but it's not quite the same thing.

With that setting there's no native way to distinguish between threads that are intended to be blockers and threads that are just comments. They all must be closed regardless of intention before merging can happen, and because there's no way for the commenter to signal their intent that process is error prone. If anyone and everyone can resolve comments then you'll get merges that shouldn't have happened. If only the commenter can resolve comments then you introduced a ton of friction in cases where a comment was just a comment.

It's not that you can't accomplish the same workflows with GitLab's current features, it's just the GitLab doesn't help you the way the other forges do.

Ask HN: Best secure self-hosted solution to host download links?
I'm starting a service that involves me generating large files (model weights) and delivering them periodically to clients.

Payment is done via gumroad (also open to gumroad ecom flows) and I run some basic scripts that eventually result in a large 200GB file or so to deliver. I don't want to pay for bandwidth in aws s3 and I have G fiber so I'd rather just host it myself.

Curious if anyone has used existing open source tools for this? I basically need to be able to generate custom download links that will expire in a few days time that are a bit more secure than just SFTP or an open directory.

Cheers!

> Organization will automatically happen.

People will surely, as you say, adopt certain habits, e.g. ordering notes chronologically for lack of a better idea.

That doesn't mean that there isn't a "best" system, which anyone who wants to be productive should adopt. But what I regret is dogmatism unsupported by empirical evidence of superiority (=unscientific claims), and the world of productivity systems (including note-taking) is full of that.

Notes may contain ideas that need to be captured so that they aren't forgotten.
Notes may contain event logs that need to be capture to verify later what actually happened (or not).
Notes may contain task lists, potentially with commitments and/or assignees and associated promised completion dates.
(Many notes can be repurposed later: an informal list of things may become a list of chapter titles in a book one day - I guess that view makes me a pragmatist [pragmaticist, more precisely, c.f. Pierce], maybe not surprising for a student[yours truly] of a student[Spärck-Jones] of a student[Masterman] of Wittgenstein).

The good thing about computers as tools that support our personal knowledge management is that we do not need to worry that much about the organization compared to e.g. a paper-based system, because we can always fulltext-index
everything, so at least there is a high chance of re-finding things (known item search) at least as long as we give things specific names or we can recall sets of keywords we likely used in describing something.

EDIT: PS: My personal note on note-taking is that indexed plain text beats any particular software anytime - because notes (any data, really) live longer than the note taking software of the day, so you don't want lock in.
Easy:

10 years ago Western companies though they could and should make businesses in China.

Today, even many Chinese companies believe that China is not a good place for making business (e.g: AliBaba, Ever Grande, Country Garden, Tencent, etc).

Slightly off-topic: about 15 years ago Golman Sachs would say that the BRICS were the next countries to become rich.

Guess what...

Brazil and South Africa reverted back to its historical kleptocracy, Russia to autocracy, China to communism and India stuck in its economic protectionism.

It would be more privacy preserving and just as effective to have a policy of bulk erasing devices when they cross a border. The e-waste version of being forced to buy bottled water in the airport.
Exactly. That's the problem.

Companies don't provide pensions anymore because it is always cheaper for them to provide a 401k or IRA and offload that risk. People only let them do it because we had fairly substantial periods of prosperity where relying on the stock market seemed "guaranteed" even though it is anything but.

What I'm suggesting is that not providing a pension shouldn't be seen as acceptable. I don't know if I'd suggest going as far as mandating it by law but I think workers should be demanding a right to a pension for themselves and all their fellow workers at a given org or in a given industry.

The labor movement is having a bit of a revival at the moment so hopefully unions can start pushing for Qualified Direct Benefit Plans (aka pensions) to be a standard again.

> how reliable do we expect those states to be in the coming decades

The federal government provides guarantees for qualified pensions through the Pension Benefits Guarantee Corporation (https://www.pbgc.gov). Even if the states fuck up, those state employees still get their pensions.
Don't the mainline builds not support ZFS though?
I can't understand this impulse. It seems blindingly clear to me that the international influence of China is rising and will continue to rise, and the need for Mandarin-English bilingual work will continue to skyrocket. If you do not believe that China is going to be an even more massive world power in the coming decades, then I guess I understand the drop in interest. I just cannot fathom how that could happen, though.

The article puts some import on "soft power"... but is the economic rise of China really going to be soft power? The manufacturing capacity in China is amazing. We're not talking about exporting cultural goods. It's real goods and real power.

The money quote for me:

> The market may have also got more competitive. Bilingual Chinese graduates now fill many of the jobs that require Mandarin. In terms of language skills, they are often more qualified than their Western counterparts. All Chinese children start learning English by age eight, some even earlier. University-entrance exams in China require a high level of proficiency.

So basically, the US students are being out-competed by the Chinese students. Learning Mandarin is not incentivized in the US.

I do not look forward to a time when all the important jobs require Mandarin proficiency, and none of the US graduates have the skills to occupy those positions.

I look forward to deeper comments or at least substantiated refutations.
To be fair, the article also says:

> That is, these numbers are not in the image of the aliquot sum [0] function.

And that function is specifically defined, using ∑ notation, as the sum of all (distinct) integers that are the proper divisors of its input.

More generally, in my experience, uniqueness is generally assumed when talking about divisor sums and their variants, unless otherwise indicated.

The biggest issue with the iPad Pro is macos. It should either run macos, or get a compatibility layer that runs macos programs, but Apple's sitting on this fence for a decade neither pushing the mac to get touch, nor letting the iPad become desktop class.

> Too bad Qualcom/Samsung/Mediatek can't figure out how to compete with Apple

I'd argue Microsoft did, and they're at their 9th iteration of a decently good product. As do Dell, Huawei, ASUS and the other makers shipping windows tablets. They're definitely there on the "Pro" side.

Samsung also pushed some pretty good devices on the Chromebook side, which I'd argue is a more direct competitor to iPad if it comes to elderly or kids in school where you need a more constrained and touch first experience.
> not expressable the sum of all proper divisor of any positive integer

(Emphasis on all mine)

A proper divisor is a positive integer divisor of n other than n. Examples: 1 is a proper divisor of all positive integers except 1, 2 is a proper divisor of all even integers except for 2, 3 is a proper divisor of 6, 9, ..

By all proper divisor of a specific positive integer n we mean the set of all positive integers that divide n and are less than n. In particular the set does not allow for repetition (you cannot count a proper divisor twice). So 1+2+2=5 is not valid since you are counting twice 2.

10 is not untouchable since 1,2,7 are all proper divisor of 14.

5 is untouchable because it cannot be 1+p+q with p < q since p > 1 so q > 3 so 1+p+q>5 (recall all proper divisor are distinct). It cannot also be 1+p because then p=4 and if 4 is a proper divisor also 2 is a proper divisor of a number so 1,4 is not the set of all proper divisor of any number
It's has nothing to do with the Bayesian Base Rate fallacy.

In this case we ABSOLUTELY KNOW the base rate is lower, since it was a preventative scan. The fallacy only happens if you then subsequently fail to adjust for the differing base rate.

If doctors later in the diagnostic process fail to take the differing base rate into account, that is not the fault of the preventative test, that is an error in determining what the correct follow up care is.
I don't have any quibble with your stats. Thanks for supplying them.

I was kidding about the 1990s. :)

Have you seen the maps that show where PFAS are? (Nearly everywhere.) Micro and macro plastics? (Pretty much everywhere.) Pollution (air and water) is absolutely up from pre-industrial levels.

Look, I am really not saying that now is worse than any time in the past. I think things are pretty good right now, except for a few real tragic issues and localities. All I am saying is that I am not 100% sure that now is undeniably better than at any time in the past of human history.

I think your stats make a pretty compelling case that the story is a bit mixed at the moment, especially depending on how someone might define what the best time to be alive would entail.

(Really, the 90s thing was just a joke.)
