To the author: thanks for all the work that goes in to sharing this. When people share with this much detail I always find at least a couple things that improve my setups.

Here are some I can share back:

- If you mount the data and config folders for a docker container you can skip backing up the container itself and back up the mounted folders with bog-standard backup tools. Recovery then means verifying the mount positions in the docker-compose file and running `up` on the new host

- When running cron (I also use separate cron containers as it’s been the cleanest and most stable solution), there are two handy tools:

- have the cron container use the image from the application itself: `image: nextcloud-app:latest` (easiest if you use a Dockerfile for the “base” image, even if it only contains `FROM nextcloud:stable`)

- use extension fields (https://stackoverflow.com/a/59796964)

I bought 800 acres of land that was clear cut in the early 2000s, I'm letting it reforest naturally. The dead wood was gone in less than 10 years, 20 years is a stretch.

To be clear, clear cutting is a horrible practice, as is mono-culture planting.
Yes, huge problem here. I don't even care anymore when I hear about it.
Revolut is a bit cheaper than Wise for FX changes.
It only lacks support to spin up/down multiple VMs via a simple configuration file (like Vagrant, for instance). If I want to spin up a small lab with N VMs with specific private IPs and the like, UTM is not the most dev-friendly tool. I think there's place for some tool in between UTM and QEMU.
but how do you avoid people only reading the title and getting a very different picture if not by carefully formulating it

they should have called it that _in_ the article

but due to the very unhealthy way ton of people consume articles (title only) title have to be written with a lot of care
This is why I hate SQL. Once an abstraction fails so badly that you must understand minutia of its underlying implementation, it's now a burden instead of a benefit.
OT but blog posts like this make me think that I'm nowhere near in the capabilities, energy, skills and problem solving attitude of some other engineers out there.
For everything outside the canvas (sidebars, toolbars, etc) figma is a react app.
I wonder if there should be a website like busfactorone.com that lists projects maintained by one person to assist with surfacing this.

It could be it’s resolved though funding them, or getting more people across it. Anything to help mitigate the risk.
H1B is a non-immigrant visa. They're not supposed to be here long.
I use it on Windows, and it's not the best application I've used, but I can't think of many meetings where I was unable to attend...maybe a minute of kill teams + restart. But, I hear it's more flaky on macos.
I've been nerd sniped.

What are the "rules" of these problems? Are you allowed to use calculators and programming? Or should the solutions be pencil and paper only Olympiad-style?
Not accurate. Renewables can be multi-used. You can put them on agriculture lands, on buildings, on parking lots. You can put a wind turbines in the deep sea (where you have constant wind). Geothermal works all the time and you can put it in the middle of a city without disturbing anything.

When you have a large enough territory then you always have power from one or the other. Storage is enough to cover the rest and still keep the costs down.
> "I've been looking forward to watching this film, but it's frustratingly not been available in the UK ... this regional specific delay feels really quite outdated."

Now days, most big budget/big studio films are released simultaneously in major markets around the world. For example, Barbie and Oppenheimer were released on the same day in most of the major markets.

But smaller independent releases like this typically aren't, because different companies often bid on the distribution rights separately for different markets. In this case, it was released in Canada by Elevation Pictures, in the USA by IFC Films, and internationally by Paramount.

In the UK & Ireland it will be released (exclusively in cinemas) on October 6th, and looks like it will get fairly wide distribution.

Serious question. Why in the 21st C would any modern language require a "layout"?
Those two different versions are being merged into one. There's a beta client version out which has those merged.
I'm using a 24" (4K, I wanted the DPI). I don't even use the laptop screen (either clamshell mode or I just turn it off). It's enough for having two windows side by side (docs + code). Anything else is a context switch, so I don't mind Alt|Command+tab or using virtual desktop (when I need to preserve the context).
My company pays Wise around £100/month in transfer fees so reducing that to £3/month piques my interest but the headache I would experience if anything went wrong would cost me a lot more than £97. My worst nightmare when using a new financial platform is that I get caught up in some KYC nightmare after transferring money and it is stuck in purgatory forever.

The website doesn't include anything to reassure me that the service is as reliable (or more reliable) than Wise. There's no social proof. I found the news article with your first annual report and that's quite compelling.

- Add average transfer times so I can see what most people are experiencing when using the service

- Add social proof: positive reviews would be very helpful

- Add real time information about volume

- Shout about your reliability: Wise has reputation that does the work for them, you don't

- Mobile app only is a little concerning too for business usage: I use Wise for business and personal, business on the website, personal on my phone (I can't articulate why but using Wise for business on my phone "feels" wrong)
Check out his philosophy on the site.

I especially liked his calculation on how many intstruments he can repair during his lifetime. His conclusion isn't existential panic, or a plan to 'scale', but seemingly, that he needs to make them count.

I can see why he has a waiting list.
Emails can only be forwarded to verified accounts (i.e, owned by the person setting up the forwarding rule)
I won't die on this hill but the point article makes is slippery slope.

2200 survey participants -> 42% have dogs -> 56% of (some other group ?) dog owners oppose rabies vaccination -> 37% of (still the same group ?) dog owners think vaccines cause dog autism -> dog autism doesnt exist -> all dog owners who oppose vaccines are insane because dog autism doesn't exist.
Do either of those examples convey to kids that it’s okay for them to transgress social expectations and norms? Or are they practical responses to exclusion of women from theater professions?

> You have some pretty blinkered preconceptions. Home school.

Nope, just a normal person (very liberal by global standards).
Thanks for the reply, I did, but it didn't seem like something I could directly integrate with from within my app, I'll dig into it a bit more.
I am pretty sure IIHS is setting up lights according to the DOT regulations when they test. As the report says: "The low beams never exceeded glare limits".

It's simple geometry - headlights at the same angle will intersect with the ground farther when they are higher off the ground.
it would be interesting to go back a few years to see how Sweden has changed.
Has there been a huge increase in crimes in the last 10 years or so?.
Yeah maybe it's not the best term but it's quite accurate and I didn't spend more than 5 seconds thinking about it.

The point is, however, that this ("gang violence") isn't really happening in most of Europe (or other first world countries like Japan), and wasn't happening in Sweden 15 years ago.

Also, did you consider that the reason there's no casualties is that people are so afraid to go out or walk around these "gang areas" that there's just noone around? I wouldn't exactly call that a positive...
Can someone give some details or references on these gangs?
Slack is harming itself more by being stagnant. Even discord is way better than slack.
I'm a big Windows hater, though I need to use it in order to build and test the binaries for win32. After experiencing any other OS, Windows always feels like a bully. Like you're using some kind of public computer in the airport and you have to go through all of the popups, ads, and shit in order to look up something quickly and leave. I hate it when at startup it shows me EVERYTHING I don't want, and there is no clear way to disable it without knowing about how to reach that nested five levels deep WinXP style setting wizard to do it. I would really love it to be COMPLETELY STILL when I enter the login password, without a single pixel of the interface moving away or animating, without a single network packet sent away, but windows is an arrogant pushy salesman who wants to shove up his context up your throat no matter what you think. I don't feel like I own any part of this system at this point. It feels alien. Rented. I would not be amazed if it was a subscription service, because it feels like one. The design is blatantly inconsistent and overstuffed with functions I would never use or want. Updates sometimes completely break my apps which just worked perfectly before. Privacy? I don't even want to think about it when I'm using this system because I know EVERYTHING I do is sent to the internet, and without my consent, it won't even install. Even buying a code sign certificate for this platform is a humiliating process designed for intermediaries to get their free money on sales. I don't understand how this still stands up as something popular, whereas almost every competitor beat it in quality at the current day.
This is far from the first time someone has pointed out that Sothebys is selling looted antiquities with bogus provenance. It's no secret that virtually the entire antiquities market is guilty of these kinds of things. If you listen to experts in this material outside the institutions that participate in this market, the unanimous message is: don't buy antiquities. The buyers who continue to participate in it are either willfully ignorant or they just don't care.
Ditto, that kind of mania is a force to be reckoned with. On one hand you get insane productivity and momentum from it and on the other hand can cause you to momentarily neglect some responsibilities. I have a love/hate relationship with that side of mine.
> There's a beta client version out which has those merged.

That's good, though temporarily, that means one more possibly simultaneously installed teams :)
Chandrayaan-3 confirms presence of sulfur and other elements on lunar South Pole
(Former Microsoft employee speaking :)

Windows has become ---let's face it--- a kind of malware. The various tricks they use to force you to use Edge & Bing are deplorable.

I almost only use Ubuntu now, which is much, much, much faster than Windows. I only use Windows for PhotoShop.

That said, some other Microsoft products and technologies are excellent: Office, Visual Studio Code, TypeScript to name a few...

With Microsoft, it's hate or love :)
For now, H1Bs don't replace truly highly skilled workers. What they do have an impact on is companies not investing in hiring junior employees and training them up. Thus, the disadvantaged people that can't attend college, who would customarily be trained by their employers, are left out in the cold when you can just import already trained people from overseas.
Oh, and make sure you can handle long names. Example:

> Every other word is a euphemism.

What do you want the news to say when it is not yet known who did it and what exactly exploded? Do you want them to lie? Or do you want them to push through the police cordon and do their own investigation faster and better than the police does?
Since immigrants in Germany are not throwing grenades, it is an unnecessary generalozation. It is also an over simplification of the situation in Sweden. And premature, as nothing seems to be known for certain yet.

And it is a tiny bit racist, ypur comment I mean.
True - maybe I should replace "unintended" with "calculated"
It's not really a competition. Ramping up nuclear will not make fossil fuel burning go away. You just have two sets of problems.

Both industries have a track record of allowing "can't happen" events to happen. Oil & gas gave us climate change disasters, Deepwater Horizon, Exxon Valdez, and so on. Nuclear power gave us Chernobyl, Fukushima, and a bunch of other incidents that pale in comparison.

Big oil took control of their political situation. Nuclear power never did. So we get political hyperfocus on the risks of transporting nuclear waste while tanker trucks are exploding on a daily basis.

Hydropower has limited opportunities and known costs. The other shoe has not yet dropped on what happens with a massive scale-up of other energy sources like wind, solar, maybe fusion...
please stop putting words in other people mouths

what I'm was saying is that from only reading the title in international press a lot of people would get a wrong picture

nothing in their says that what they did is okayish

just far less bad then idk. trying to kill as many people of a specific group as possible with a bomb

which is what I would think happened when I read gang bombings in US media
That's far from my experience. Where in Europe and for what kind of payments?

I only use POs with my customers. I'm based in Sweden, doing work mostly in Germany, Switzerland, and England, as software sales and contract work. No one has even blinked.

In Swedish it's called a inköpsorder, but often abbreviated PO.

As an example, https://www.betydelse-definition.com/ink%C3%B6psorder has "Inköpsordern (ofta säker man PO som är kort för Purchase Order) är det viktigaste dokumentet i en inköpsverksamhet och är ett avtal mellan två parter. POn definierar vad som köps in och under vilka villkor och förutsättningar."

In English: "The purchase order (often said PO, which is short for Purchase Order) is the most important document in a purchasing operation and is an agreement between two parties. The PO defines what is bought in and under what conditions and requirements."

Looking around, here's a description of purchase order use in the UK: https://gocardless.com/guides/posts/guide-to-purchase-orders...

> Purchase orders are a helpful part of the procurement process, allowing business owners to keep track of incoming orders and to monitor stock levels. It’s a way to see exactly what money is being spent where and at what moment. In some cases, purchase orders are a basic requirement for doing business. Many government agencies and authorities insist upon PO forms being issued before they’ll agree to settle an invoice.

It wasn't hard to find similar examples for other European countries.
Why burned? In most tree plantations I visited branches were placed in piles for insects, small animals and shrooms to enjoy it. It then degrades over a year or two into some soup of carbon, nitrogen and potassium I guess.
Here’s a compilation of hundreds of social media comments explaining why agile/scrum is so problematic

Can a Canadian client pay me, in Europe, using Revolut?
Yes, places where people spend money are the only map info Google cares about. Outside of cities and towns it's a joke.
Why I don't see this jobs?
There is a big tech out there, hidden from most of us.

Let's name it manufacturing (I'm not a native English speaker, so may be there is a better word).

I've been working as a tech for more than 20 years and I've never seen such kind of jobs postings, never!

There are a lot of factories producing machines, which does for example a pack for your milk or
print a circuit board for your refrigerator or whatever. And I'm pretty sure they need tech guys
to code all these stuff. Moreover, they need guys who will support the supply chain including
general front-end, backend, QA specialists.

This is a big industry though I've never seen jobs from they. Why? Do they use another not
so fancy tech stack or may be they've had another hiring and working culture.

Just curious.
I'm just going to quote dang to you here:

Could you please not post unsubstantive comments and/or flamebait? Your account has already been doing it repeatedly. We're trying for something else here!

If you wouldn't mind reviewing https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html and taking the intended spirit of the site more to heart, we'd be grateful.
Every time you hand your card to someone they could grab the info. If they use it to buy something, that's fraud and they'll hopefully get in lots of trouble. But if they just use it to track you to your home neighborhood or place of work, is that illegal?
Yes. Fascinatingly enough it's not been as bad in neghbouring countries, leading to the term "we don't want Swedish conditions over here".

It probably is because Sweden has taken on much more immigrants, to the point where the percentage of Swedish residents born outside Sweden is 3x higher than in Norway and Denmark. This has probably overloaded the capacity of the social security system, and has lead to a greater extent of neighbourhoods where almost every older adult is a poor first-generation immigrant.
Show HN: Become fluent in a language by practicing with an AI Tutor
Hi everyone!

After recently moving from Toronto to Montreal, I was trying to become more fluent in French.

I downloaded a couple language learning apps, but quickly realized that it wasn’t helping me hold a conversation in everyday situations.

I then downloaded some language exchange apps, but it was difficult to keep the conversations going with different time zones, and my language partners weren’t always properly correcting all my mistakes.

So finally, I got a real tutor but it quickly became expensive, and I couldn’t just practice anytime, like on the bus every morning.

So I built Tutor Lily, a mobile app chatbot to help language learners like me become fluent by practicing real-life conversations with a friendly AI companion, who corrects and explains all your mistakes, making personalized tutoring both affordable and always available at your fingertips!

But this is just the beginning, I have many interesting ideas that I hope to launch in the coming months to enhance Tutor Lily's capabilities.

Excited to see what you guys think, and get all your most honest feedback!
Going to hard disagree here and say this is extremely person-specific. I already knew how to code in C++ and Python from high school AP classes. CS61A was awful for me and made me hate computer science. I tested out of 61B. 61C taught me how computers actually work and simultaneously made me quit the major.

Here's my take: if you are interested in computer science, the combination of these classes is great. If you are interested in being a software developer or building things quickly to solve problems there are far better resources out there.
If you have an iOS app I suggest looking into https://developer.apple.com/documentation/foundation/personn...
Other console makers make a profit on their consoles as well. Typically it's either a small margin at the beginning, or maybe they're eating it somewhat, but as time goes on the components get cheaper, production is improved, or they make revisions to reduce complexity in the circuit boards, or they release a newer smaller version of the console as well. But it's not fair to say that Sony and Microsoft lose money on their console hardware but Nintendo doesn't.
Probably not. If people you speak with commit time/reputation/money then it’s a much stronger signal.
Only you can answer this question, especially without showing your product. As a rule of thumb, when you have idea/product, use this early version as an MVP, try to soft-market it to a small circle of pelple, be it your friends, or people in your living area. Get their feadback. If overwhelmingly positive, make it a startup slowly, and iterate from there. If not positive, but not negative, add some more features from the feedbacks, or completely change it, make a statup. If completely negative, dong' give up yet. Using the same idea, pivot towards a completely NEW(but similar) product. Always iterate!
I'm sorry but the lifespan of the power plant is irrelevant.

LCoE is measured in dollars per MWh. If your powerplant is projected to go from $55/MWh to $110/MWh no amount of lifespan doubling is going to change that.
>but I am not going to buy a console just because of one game..

You might not but many millions do consistently.
Its £3 per transfer, not per month:

And they do mention gangs! The exact word is used twice.
As far as I understand, it’s probably a bit further out for psilocybin. Compass Pathways are the furthest along I believe, with Phase 3 reads-outs expected next year for treatment resistant depression. Unless it’s fast-tracked, 2025 seems more likely.

2024 can happen for MDMA, though. MAPS has completed (I believe) Phase 3B for comparing PTSD.

It’s happening, but slowly. I fully expect these wonderful molecules to be widely available in clinical settings within 5 years, including LSD and ibogaine (which seems particularly promising for addiction treatment)
1. Options: give them the answer they’re looking for, even if its bullshit.

2. Stonewall and give them answers so confusing and incongruent they’ll eventually stop asking.
That's the first thing comes to my mind too
They track EVERYTHING. They know how long you pause while scrolling and a Tate video comes up. They have cookies from other website you visit cross referenced by source IP
I’m sure they’re not doing it for the money, but their Patreon brings in over 2k/month. Not enough to quit your day job, but pretty good side money. Plays Zelda better than the Switch too!!
Sorry, poor phrasing on my part. I typically make 1 monthly transfer which costs me about £100 with Wise and would cost me £3 with Atlantic Money.
No, the link shows data related to weather without sun and wind for significant time periods ranging from 1995 to 2015.
There are horrible people who loves the idea of being able to use someone else's identities. Not just made up but stolen. I - I don't want to know why, nor what they're normally thinking.
I bought a Switch OLED to play Tears of the Kingdom, plus the game - $420 all in. If I could play it on my laptop which has a better screen and speakers, I would only pay $60. Plus, now I’m more likely to buy another Nintendo game to increase the utility of my new gizmo. As a business I’m pretty sure I’d rather have 7x the revenue.
With that timing, you might look into long Covid.

For me? Maybe 55? But it wasn't a sharp thing, so it's hard to put a firm age on it.
My brief experience of living in Germany says that they're doing a better job of integrating immigrants. In Sweden they're basically dumped in a suburb and ignored, until they start blowing things up that is.
EU has nearly identical KYC and AML requirements...
I don't know why you're aggressively attacking this guy, it sounds like agree with most of what he says.

The Rav4 is basically the kind of car most people should get instead of a lot of what's popular today. The Rav4 is a hatchback on tall suspension. What car enthusiasts want is the hatchback without the lift because tall cars don't handle as well and to top it off, are usally less efficient.

Road wear is a cubic function of weight and our roads, I think it's reasonable to ask why cars have gotten so big and who's going to pay for the increase in damage done to our roads?
