I use it purely for the Groups. In particular, one group called "The Evolution of Sci Fi" which I've been a member of for some years now. They have a monthly read which I rarely have time to acquire and get through, but have sometimes read recently enough to contribute. Plus various interesting discussions about sci fi past and present.
So as a last resort you'd have to boot a live image (windows or linux) to extract docs and configs in order to reinstall from zero ?

The one I got recommended once (despite not being subscribed) was AITA. Which is cheap (and I'm certain 99% fake) reality tv content. I clicked it once and now that's it, that's all I get.
In the future that will probably be Auracast (Bluetooth LE Audio) and using personalized earbuds (or hearing aids). Then everyone can manage their own volume and preferences.
Do you think that all or most the crimes condemned prisoners in the US are currently convicted of actually rise to the level where you agree that it's appropriate?

>The rest of the world is letting crime run rampant on their streets through lenient sentencing...

There is extensive evidence that the severity of punishment has very little to no effect on crime rates. It's simply not something criminals generally consider when actually committing crimes.
The person you're replying to didn't mention climate change, nor did the WSJ article they linked. The article says things like:

"West Maui dried up over the past 150 years as water was diverted to support an
expansion of sugar plantations and then real-estate development."

And then talks about how the sugar plantations were abandoned and non-native grasses took over, real thick nasty invasive flammable grass. People said "we should do something about that grass" and they did a bit, but the only way to get rid of the grass is to dig it up, and who's gonna pay for that?
Sorry, why would unbundling avoid further antitrust investigation? Why would that magically stop you from still being investigated and inevitably be found guilty of antitrust practices?

i feel like this author does not fully comprehend the topic (docker)... dockerfile is NOT declarative.

"Docker Engine which takes a Dockerfile and runs it on a Linux host natively" no, not really, you have to build the dockerfile into a container. There is a lot of different steps between.

This post is four things and i'll leave it to the reader to figure it out
There are more justifications for punishment though as deterrence and incapacitation are also discussed in the model penal code. Now, some certainly argue that deterrence isn't effective but I think it's a better justification than retribution.
Title is the one that always confuses me since titles are basically non-existent here. It seems really like a really important thing in the Anglosphere and I have no idea why. I just always pick "Dr" when I'm forced to pick one. So far it has never made any difference.
This is true for Postgres.
But might not be true for other databases. For example, for MySQL, in some cases OR is faster than IN operator based on our experiments.
You had never used vault uh?
Ask HN: How to be better at writing internal proposals and design docs?
I'm hitting a point in my career as a software engineer where I'm spending a lot more of my time writing internal design docs & technical proposals within my company. Writing (especially technical writing) is a skill that I've under-invested in for the past few years.

How have you improved your technical writing, and also what are some of the best examples of clear, concise technical proposals?
And why are all the other office suites allowed to have video/chat?
Ask HN: How effective are coding interviews?
The consensus here appears to be that experienced developers who struggle to answer interview questions possess poor problem-solving skills and are considered low-skilled developers.

One guy working for Amazon told me that majority of the developers are low skilled hence some kind of filter is needed and people who can't pass coding interviews are unskilled.

My view:Problem with coding interviews is scalability.
Poor quality of interview question,lack of good interviewers and can't filter out candidates who have memorized interview questions.
> If your view is that all fossil fuel assets are headed towards zero over the next 3-4 decades, then you want to extract every last penny from the existing assets and move them into the pockets of shareholders.

I can not locate the long piece article now but I read a piece from someone that effectively got invited into a Shell (UK) think tank and heard exactly that from some vp/executive at a dinner table.

That they aimed to diversify (think corn/algae based fuels, hydrogen infrastructure, charging networks), but that they ultimately still believed that the public opinion would still make it palatable to continue hydrocarbon fuels extraction for another 2 to 3 decades.
How much of the increase in violent crimes is not due to a leniency of capital punishment, but due to no effort in actual rehabilitation due to city/state/federal cost-cutting measures?

Privatizing prison builds an economic model that incentivizes creating repeat offenders. Withholding or making rehabilitation unattainable for the majority benefits the prison, but offers zero benefit for America as a society.
I've had a similar problem with YouTube. What helped me was a) disabling the history; b) heavily curating my subscriptions. I only try to consume content that comes from either my specific searches (e.g. "how to change oil in a motorcycle") or from the channels I follow. You still get occasionally sucked into "recommended" videos, but it is much better than having to rely on the front page of my account feeding all kinds of garbage.
Just another facet of the lovely enshittification diamond. Fortunately in OSS land, there's a deshittification tool called the fork.

"the rise of online retail has made the expense of doing IRL business prohibitive. And so, rather than going to a local bottle shop for my craft beers, I have them sent to me once a month."

What? Who does that? I go to the store to get my beer, books, clothes, etc. etc. In fact, the urge to leave the house (I work at home) means that even things like food that I might otherwise prefer to have delivered, I go get in person since it's an excuse to leave the house. Sure, I have some subscriptions, but most of my shopping for stuff is very much IRL.
At least in Germany, titles are still rather important. I agree that it's silly but if you have a PhD you're very likely to put "Dr." on your doorbell name plate.
The conundrum reminds me of "On Exactitude in Science" by Borges:

> …In that Empire, the Art of Cartography attained such Perfection that the map of a
single Province occupied the entirety of a City, and the map of the Empire, the entirety
of a Province. In time, those Unconscionable Maps no longer satisfied, and the
Cartographers Guilds struck a Map of the Empire whose size was that of the Empire, and
which coincided point for point with it.
I tried to navigate youtube search by simply sorting by view count, since I figure that's at least moderately more difficult to game, and not subject to the algorithim.

But it turns out that for more general search terms youtube will simply not show lots of high view count videos, and which ones specifically can change with each search. (It does always does show a large amount of music videos, Indian media, disturbingly repetitive gaming/meme stuff, children's videos, etc...)

So even a ranked list of which video has the most views apparently is algorithmic to some extent.
It does though. My gmail account has a dot. For some reason someone with a similar name to mine must have for believed his address was the non dotted version of mine and to this day I keep getting emails addressed to this other person... and yes, it is a real person who I've managed to contact.

The point is that without the dots rule I'd never get those emails, and the senders would get their message bounced back right away.
BlackBerry didn’t have a second act. They put all their blackberries in one very nice basket and failed to invest their riches into the kind of deep, speculative R&D that keeps Apple, Microsoft, and Google on the cutting edge on multiple fronts simultaneously, ready to pivot when the opportunity or threat presents itself.

Is it a tragedy, though? I think most companies are doing well if they manage to return billions to their initial shareholders by exploiting a breakthrough product for a few years. Companies aren’t meant to last forever. They exist to enrich shareholders for a while - hopefully a long time, but everyone realizes most companies eventually are bought or fail due to changing market conditions.
The Next Magic Button: A recipe for LLMs to conquer the web
How is it adding functionality a bad thing for the end user?

Maybe Slack or Zoom should add office capabilities and try to compete on features and price?
It is inherently not possible for Dockerfiles, as a format, to generate reproducible outputs/images. You can run whatever command you want in a Dockerfile. Docker engine itself has no way of knowing whether that command's behavior is reproducible--and in turn, has no way to guarantee reproducible images from a Dockerfile.
One challenge there is that many of the factors driving the location wants aren't entirely unreasonable: That "want" to live in proximity to the VA hospital that will provide them the medical services they need, they "want" to live in proximity to family members they can get (or sadly, often harass) some support out of. They "want" to live in a place where a poor ability to manage themselves and/or their substance addictions won't result in a quick death from exposure (or arrest).
That thread is nuts! More than two years of complaints about the installer bricking the OS, followed by crickets from Docker and the thread being automatically closed. Yikes! How can you have a piece of software which you know might completely corrupt the user's OS just by installing, and not at least notify the users next to the Install button? "Warning: may be Docker, may be virus, use at your own risk."
I think it shows the huge benefit of OSS. If TF had been closed from the start, users would have no recourse at all. Instead, there is a viable path forward.

Beyond what some of the other comments mentioned, Nintendo also took a different approach to their consoles compared to Microsoft and Sony which kind of forces them to lock down their first-party titles.

The Nintendo Switch is very underpowered compared to the other consoles of the same generation (PS4/5, Xbox Series X) but has a huge advantage of being the ultimate handheld / travel console. While Sony and Microsoft consoles can generally push out more FPS or better graphics (usually they lean towards better graphics), the Switch is very limited since it needs to strike a balance of form factor (less space for hardware) and battery life (what's the point of the handheld if you can only game for 30 minutes?).

For a big chunk of their user base, including the folks interested in these type of emulators and using them legally, they would probably prefer to use their other consoles and/or a PC/Mac from a pure performance perspective.

I also suspect that they would get less revenue per copy sold on other platforms compared their own platform, especially with games released by in-house studios.

With the above in mind, releasing a game on other platforms will cut into their revenue stream pretty significantly.

I do most of my reading via library books, either physical or digital - a bookshelf wouldn't help me there, nor would it help me organize books by multiple categories, or remember what I rated them as, or let me easily leave and search notes about them.

I don't use GoodReads' social aspect at all, but I do use it as a book database, and will continue to do so until they remove the ability to exfiltrate my data.
Docker is just one thing.

Docker is a command that can build, fetch, and run docker images from a docker registry and orchestrates running those typically on a linux host or virtual machine.

A docker image is a set of hashes that identify layers in a layered filesystem. A docker registry stores those layers and the docker looks up layers from the registry. The combined layers form a filesystem that is mounted when you run the docker image. A running docker image is called a docker container.

To create a docker image with docker, you use a Dockerfile that specifies a sequence of steps that modify the layered file system, typically starting from a base image that is specified in the first line.

The company Docker Inc. is a major contributor to the open source docker code base and also owns and runs a popular docker registry called Docker Hub, which is what the docker command uses as default place to look for docker images.

While docker is popular, there are alternative tools that are able to run docker images. For example Kubernetes implements its own way to run docker images. Likewise, there are build tools that produce docker images without using the docker command or a Dockerfile. And the docker registry API is simple enough that you don't need docker to fetch layers either.

Consequently, there are several popular tools in this space. That do similar things with varying degrees of compatibility. Many of these can run docker containers from Docker Hub.
I have been a reader of this website since 15 years.

I belong to one of the Poor states of India, one of the bimaru states.

We are not eligible for

Healthcare by government

But we pay 4/5th of our incomes as taxes.

My parents do not get any help, pension, from the government
I have to use all my leftover income to pay for healthcare of my parents

My children will be having to work 3/4th harder than anyone else for the same colleges seat, and will pay at least 7 times more fee for the same college seat.

We never had any generational wealth, no farm lands.

The politician have been Gaslighting us since decades that somehow we are the culprits, just for been born.

The politicians have been ignoring, trolling, downplaying our concerns since decades in these 4 states.

The politicians only want 70% of our income as taxes and we have to watch our parents die because we don't have money.

We have to watch our children get injured on roads and use cheaper medicine because we don't have money leftover after paying taxes.

Do not let anyone Gaslight, do not let anyone convince that you are the culprits just for being born.

Just because something exists on the internet doesn't mean it's correct.

Do not believe anything written on the internet unless it is vetted by all sided

From the last 4 decades, 10% of the population has been deprived of 50% of the government jobs.

Not all of That 10% doesn't may not have generational wealth.

Do not let anyone convince you that that person is oppressed.

Ask about the generational wealth, ask about the real estate owned by the family.

A person who pays 7times fee for the same college will not own a house as compared to a person who pays 0 few for the same college.

Do not let anyone convince you whose parents are government job holders that he/she is oppressed.

The only oppressed people in India are those who pay their taxes and get nothing on return, have to watch their mothers die, have to watch their children heartbroken for scoring extremely good marks and still be denied admission.
Having not been in this position myself, my instinct is to drop the greeting line in emails altogether. I’m sure you considered that and had a good reason not to drop it.
Yep. Since OP mentions working as IT consultant, I can easily see how that field being dominated by IT shops that merely checkbox one or more of H1B critireas. I can see how his/her perspective is colored.

But if you make visa program too punitive, then folks will simply chose not to come. A person in their 30-40s, want stability so as they can raise their kids, have a place to call home and not be on a perpetual cycle of anxiety.

In my mind, this will disincentivize folks who have most to contribute to US economy. I don't know much about China but for folks who are really good, salaries in India is already pretty high and closer to US salaries and will have fewer reasons to immigrate.
Companies undermine potential markets for others all the time - that’s what adding new features does. Facebook adding chat was a huge blow to MSN messenger. Reddit adding image uploads natively to their platform was a huge blow to third party image hosts. Excel adding python scripting is a huge blow for a large class of data analysis tools.

And yes, O365 adding chat was a big blow for Slack. But I think Teams' displacing Slack has more to do with the fact that Slack doesn't offer value equivalent to it's fairly high price. There are lots of features in O365 that never disrupted "premium priced" competitors - BaseCamp exists despite O365 ToDo, project management tools exist despite O365 Planner, etc.
I wish they would just provide a simple stereo mix for those of us that don't want to clutter their living room with a receiver and speakers. Netflix actually provides a stereo mix that works quite well, while Disney plus has an horrible Dolby mix where you lose half of the speech unless you increase your volume to insane levels
The loss of slack totally grenaded the culture at my company. There used to be a lot of cross site conversations, folks knew each other.

Teams is so dense, it's almost designed to avoid those general chat situations.

Not to mention if you have any amount of Linux users, they're basically second class citizens.
By LRU you mean caching/preloading being terrible (and there being a lot of latency) because there wasn’t enough load to allow things to properly preload?

I had no idea the site had groups!
If the Slack desktop app had a way to open a workspace in a new window I'd put the Slack window of each of my customers in the virtual desktop of that customer instead of having to move Slack to the workspace of the moment.

Except for that, they could stagnate. For example, what the huddles were for? Did I miss any new functionality that they added to the old calls?
That's not the consensus. Indeed, I would say that there is no consensus. Every HN submission about coding interviews results in massive disagreements and arguments.
First, Kubernetes is a resource allocator/scheduler. Find a place for this workload given my constraints. If something goes wrong, find a new place.

Second, Kubernetes is a dev-friendly app management tool. Start 5 copies of this app, restart if it fails, mount this config file, etc. Most Kube apps look roughly the same across teams and companies, so skills are transferrable.

Third, the Kubernetes API is a standardization layer between compute/cloud capabilities.

Fourth, the Kubernetes Container <foo> Interface (CxI) is a implementation layer to plug in to compute capabilities. You can swap Docker, CRI-O, etc with the Container Runtime Interface (CRI). Use cloud block storage with Container Storage Interface (CSI).

Fifth, Kubernetes custom resources (CRDs) are a standardized extension point for building custom behavior into a cluster in a sane way.
> Since 1973, at least 190 people have been exonerated from death row in the U.S...

I don't really have a dog in this fight, but I'm wondering if you know if "exonerated" in this case means "found clear evidence that they were not guilty" or just(?) "the conviction was overturned." To me, those are two different things.

To be clear, I don't want anyone in prison (or on death row) that didn't get a fair trial -- even if they're guilty. But I do think there is a difference.

I think it's anticompetitive because MSTeams is a software of a very low quality, lacking lots of features found in other software for years, yet everybody is using it because... nothing. So how can we encourage competition if the most used software in a field got there not because of its merit, but because of corporate practices?
FWIW, keeping prisoners on death row is also more expensive for tax payers than even life imprisonment. This money can be put to better use than pumping it towards lawyers and legal fees, for sure, whether it's prison reform, or anything.

allowing victims legal means of retribution/revenge, then capital punishment is absolutely necessary for some crimes

How can you be so sure? Dennis Shepard famously didn't want the death penalty for his son's murderer. You also hear of stories of the families of victims not getting any closure after a convict is put to death. The victims themselves are often dead and can't obtains things like retribution or revenge. It's not as "absolutely necessary" as you're painting it here.
