At least in the article, I didn't see anything mentioned about incentivizing cycling or walking (or infrastructure investments to support them).

They're simply reducing subsidies to EVs, which will only be slightly less heavily subsidized compared to ICE vehicles.

Anyone from Norway know what they're doing for walking and cycling that isn't in the article?
i like the fact that i can have a list of session at mouse reach. i like that i can do stuff like have sessions with different color schemes, or sessions that run a command on startup.

i like the fact that it's scriptable. at my previous job i had a python script (that i could recall from a button within securecrt) that would enumerate stuff off consul and create/update sessions on the fly, with all the necessary hoops in place (eg: setting a jump host).

i have to say, i also have some nostalgia of my first job where we used securecrt heavily (or maybe i'm just nostalgic about being 24 years old? i don't know...).
It's somewhat ironic that the country which seems to have the most people fear-mongering about "one world government" is also the country with the most people who think that their government is the only one in the world.

As a software engineer, I would use 25gbit daily, particularly during EU and US work hours (my team crosses continents).

I'd download those yuuuuuge deployments in seconds instead of minutes.

And the scary thing is... I'd be super tempted to actually get it if it were offered here. I already have 1gbit fiber and the hardware for 10gbit. I wouldn't need to upgrade much to utilize it.

Well, I would if the servers I'm downloading from could provide at that speed. I'm pretty sure they're connected at 10gbit for a lot of the same reasons.

Not planned for the current minimalist version but I think that’s a good idea for a settings menu.

> I love the music, but a bit frustrated with the sounds

Sorry to hear that. Out of curiosity, is it the capturing sound in particular you’re referring to, or do you feel the same about the (less frequent) other SFX ones? Would be great to understand a bit more too what aspect in particular of these sounds you find suboptimal (genre, volume, frequency, specific audio, etc.)

Double Commander is amazing and I've been using it daily for years.

The ability to save frequently used (but complex enough to remember) commands as buttons is extremely helpful.

The benefits a GUI brings to the table when it comes to complex file manipulations are undeniable, as long as the tool doesn't stand in your way and, for the most part, Double Commander does not.

Double Commander also comes with Lua scripting which opens a door to even more customized workflows.
When they brought back the X-Files for one season a few years ago they did an episode on this premise: the shadowy conspiracy master actually releases youtube videos describing what he does, on the grounds that nobody knows the difference between truth and untruth anymore, so it only helps him to further muddy the waters.

As someone else noted, SBCL's `SB-EXT:SAVE-LISP-AND-DIE` ends up producing hilariously large executables. The solution I've settled on for bags of small, sharp tools is to simply have an omnibus program that includes a variety of functionality as subcommands, and that can dispatch to the appropriate function based on the name it was run as (i.e., the value of argv[0]). One of those commands will pepper a directory of your choice with soft links to the omnibus program, each named for a subcommand.

I live in a city with a halfway decent (very good by US standards) transit system (Cambridge [Boston]).

My car is comically faster to get almost anywhere I have to go, unless I’m trying to get to the Dunkin’s or newsstand at a T station.

The random route ability of cars (and bikes) will dominate fixed route radial spokes from the city center as is overwhelmingly common from mass transit systems.
As someone who built a React based AI foreign language chat partner using the davinci GPT3 model all the way back in 2022 purely for personal use, this space is already hyper competitive - it's not a defensible moat at all.
I spent the day on an island with very few cars, a bus service, a ferry and lots of bicycles.

Getting back to the mainland and having cars everywhere was a bit of a shock. Life on the island was better, best cycling ever and I could ride side by side with my friend, chatting.

There was also an abundance of fresh fruit - blackberries - so I didn't have my lunch, I just ate all that I could eat from the fresh food available at the roadside, all of it organic, none of it washed, all of it freshly picked fresh.

With the quietness due to the absence of cars I could say hello to people cycling the other way. Beeping or waving through a window in a tin box is just naff, and not as civilised.

The road surface was also pretty much perfect, not ruined by motor vehicles. There was a complete absence of the grey filth that is on the roadside of the roads on the mainland.

The sooner we get rid of cars, the better. They are economic traps for people. Obviously we have all got to eat, but, on the island with just a ferry, bus and lots of bicycles, they seemed to be correctly nourished - no fat people in cars to be found.

On the client.

Data is already stored in the ZIP file deflated, so I can just send whatever is inside the ZIP file back to the client if they accept that encoding (which is pretty much always the case, given how ubiquitous deflate is).

The server parses the ZIP file and stores that information in a hash table for quicker lookup but it's otherwise not decompressing anything. This hash table is kept for a few minutes to avoid having to decode the base64-encoded data and parse the ZIP file for every request.
That's what ReactOS kinda wants to be — it targets Windows Server 2003 compatibility right now. It's still far from a usable state though.
I think it's totally legit to say that hyperscaler Linux adoption isn't dispositive of the Linux's stack's performance advantage over FreeBSD. I basically think of this FreeBSD vs. Linux stack debate as unknowable (it probably isn't, but it's liberating to decide I'm not going to resolve it to anyone's satisfaction). So I'm not here to say "Google uses Linux ergo it's faster than FreeBSD"; that adoption is a useful observation, but that's all it is.

Very low unemployment (aka labor shortage) is bad for business owners, not capitalism. There is a difference. Capitalism is a system that everyone plays a role in in benefits from; it's not a group of people.

One could consider labor shortage good and healthy for capitalism itself, since it increases worker wages and thus builds political support for the capitalist system.

Sure, but if it's just for pedagogy reasons, there's plenty of things you can do in order to learn about HOFs, the type system, typeclasses, Monoid, Functor, etc. before reading in some input, and if that becomes necessary, a teacher can always provide some template with a disclaimer "don't worry about it, we'll cover that later" - same as they do it for Java that forces you to learn what classes are before you can write a program.

OTOH, the promise of Haskell is that while it takes longer to learn and getting used to, the payoff is that you can get rid of certain classes of bugs. Whether that's true or not is a different matter entirely, but a priori just because something is hard to learn it doesn't mean it's not worth it.
The analysis starts with structural violence, which seems to be the same as what was once called “class struggle”:

> This kind of violence can be traced to inequitable opportunities among members of society. It creates social injustice and indirect suffering, resulting from a divided society with the upper class dominating social resources and the lower class having limited access to those resources

With that lens, I don’t think you can find any acceptable solution for anything unless you change the wealth/power distribution. So I am not sure if this really says something about the merits of EVs.

> Finally, we conclude that eradicating private automobility is necessary to realise climate and transport justice. Focusing on inclusive strategies, such as supporting public transportation, shared mobility, and active travel modes, instead of offering incentives for EVs, are the means of progressive redistribution of wealth and can satisfactorily meet people's basic needs and governmental climate targets.

> Its always been an open question to me in the case of Adobe if rampant piracy in the 2000s helped rather than hinder them.

it's not an open question, there are studies about how piracy helps industries (it was about media, it was financed by the EU, but when they got the results they didn't like it so they didn't advertised it much).

if not for product advocacy, consider product training: training is expensive and takes time, and most teenagers would do that themselves for free on your product. so if you're a company and pick a product that's heavily pirated, chances are some random applicant already knows the product.

Plastic parts most certainly do have both an elastic region and a Young's modulus. Young's modulus is the slope of the curve during elastic deformation (the form of deformation where the part returns to its original shape after the force is removed) and is a measure of a material's inherent stiffness. All solids have a Young's modulus. Take a piece of plastic and bend it a little, then let go. It is elastic. Plastic deformation is the state passed the yielding where the part will not return to its original shape. Plastic the material and plastic the form of deformation are independently named from the greek plastikos: able to be shaped or molded.
The image people have of flying cars will never happen.

Any attempt at making a hybrid airplane/car will be shitty at being one or both of them. A hybrid helicopter/car is going to be too loud to use anywhere near a residential area, as would anything that relies on using turbines to push air downwards to pull the car up.
Nice! That's exactly what I had in mind.

As usual, no idea is unique--it's all about who executes first!
Those are very fair points! You use to be able to write a credible site with a text editor and an FTP client, but that's a long time gone.

They don't, It's just a better result for the users who get newer and better software, and a better result for the sellers who only have to support one version and get a consistent cash flow.
Crew won't be launching on Starship any time soon. IIRC the approach being taken for Nasa's human landing system (still several years away) will have the crew launch on SLS, a Starship launching uncrewed and getting topped up in-orbit by tanker ships. Crew will board in lunar orbit to descend/ascend: nobody will be on the booster-assisted part, and launching from the moon will use different thrusters situated higher-up the ship body to avoid digging a hole.

There are private flights proposed, but AFAIK there's no firm schedule. The approach to certification is similar to Falcon 9: have a long series of successful launches. (Unlike e.g. SLS or the Shuttle, which are crew rated during development).

Edit: Maybe you're thinking of Nasa's SLS rocket, which had a successful launch and is meant to be taking crew on a lunar fly-by soon (probably slipped from this year)? (SLS is orange and white with side boosters; Starship is silver and black with fins)
Even presuming the will existed in Microsoft, there's enough licensed code that open sourcing it as is would probably be a non starter. Probably a more viable approach would be open sourcing individual components as the rights are cleared and eventually replacing the third party components which aren't able to be renegotiated with freely available or internally built replacements. That being said, they -might- be able to free something like WRK with only a little prodding on legal's part, and that would be interesting in itself bc NT has a quite elegant internal architecture and not too many people get to see it overall.

A ubiquitous tire rubber–derived chemical induces acute mortality in coho salmon (2020)

> In U.S. Pacific Northwest coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch), stormwater exposure annually causes unexplained acute mortality when adult salmon migrate to urban creeks to reproduce. By investigating this phenomenon, we identified a highly toxic quinone transformation product of N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N′-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine (6PPD), a globally ubiquitous tire rubber antioxidant. Retrospective analysis of representative roadway runoff and stormwater-affected creeks of the U.S. West Coast indicated widespread occurrence of 6PPD-quinone (<0.3 to 19 micrograms per liter) at toxic concentrations (median lethal concentration of 0.8 ± 0.16 micrograms per liter). These results reveal unanticipated risks of 6PPD antioxidants to an aquatic species and imply toxicological relevance for dissipated tire rubber residues.

> Second, it's not you, it's the programmer labor market.

I keep hearing this, but then I’ll see the opposite, that the market has already corrected and it’s just incompetents that joined the industry in the times of low interest rates can’t get hired now. It seems about 50/50 what I see and hear.

> Third, to survive in the meantime, you may have to take a crap job for a bit

I’m definitely trying, but even this feels difficult in spite of the constant new about how great the general job market is.
> I started programming as a kid, and always knew I wouldn't like it make it in the industry.

What made you think that?
It sounds like you might have some self esteem issues that should be addressed. Not all tech work is glamorous, but if you can solve real world business problems, you would be employable. Sometimes lack of confidence can turn a potential employer off.
Not every employer will directly ask you this, but have a good answer for: “what piece of software did you write that you are most proud of?”
Think about it and what you’ve learned and hopefully that will translate to improved reception.

> This has been tried, and results in horrible oppression within just a few years of implementation. I can see the appeal, but you have to re-invent humans to make it work.

From 50,000 years ago to 10,000 years ago there were no capitalists, no kings, no slave owners.

production to the needs of the community, distribute the work to be done among all those able to work and guarantee a livelihood to every man, woman, and child. The education of the individual, in addition to promoting his own innate abilities, would attempt to develop in him a sense of responsibility for his fellow men in place of the glorification of power and success in our present society.

It is not a system of horrible oppression, it is how the few remaining hunter gatherer bands live in the Amazon right now.
True the temperature is not the issue. The issue is unmaintained bike paths in most of Norway during winters. I did mention that.
That will send the content to the server for unpacking. A slightly more convoluted option might be to put the zip in the anchor part instead and have the response serve code to unpack it from there client side. Though now the server can't scan for damaging content being sent via it, even if it wanted to, as the anchor part does not get sent to the server.
We have been doing feature engineering, then we got into architecture engineering, and the future is dataset & prompt engineering. All models learn more or less the same, given the same training budget and dataset. But better data makes a better model.

Same for humans, the better the education and more advanced the science, the more we achieve with the same brains. The key ingredient is ideas, both for humans and AI.
Sometimes it’s a matter of communication style with the LLM, some communicators mesh much better.

Basically, but the general concept is "content-addressable file service".

Globalization is indeed unpopular with those who lean left economically. Because it means more opportunity for exploitation of workers, mostly. It's capitalists who like it (which tend to be center to right economically).
One bit of trivia that came out of it is that since WWI, the FBI has received from USPS a photograph of the destination and return address of every letter mailed in the US (the analogy with telephony metadata is pretty obvious).
I didn't like the movie or Cumberbatch's portrayal, but not sure what you mean here. Turing being gay was definitely a significant part of the plot. It comes up quite a bit and the movie literally ends with him being discovered and being forced to take the "medication".
I’d transition to worse and more expensive healthcare if that’s what it takes to get to healthcare for everyone.

The transition will be painful for many who have good employer provided healthcare, but at least then we’ll have a somewhat unified voice demanding better care at better costs.

Every politician would be beholden to every voter on healthcare issues during every election.

If you have any tips or can share examples of successful HN posts, I’d greatly appreciate it.

Your insights may also benefit others trying to do the same.

Thank you for your help!

If you are pushing nix-snapshotter images to a Docker Registry, then it can only either use what's in your host nix store, or fetch from a binary cache.

The same is true if you are using the special image reference like `nix:0/nix/store/f8b1hia3hcqwa5d46anzy3cszi3s6ybk-nix-image-redis.tar`, it just means that instead of fetching the image manifest from a Registry, you are using the Nix protocols.

You will only build from source dynamically (and a mix of caching) if you are doing `kubectl apply -f ${podSpec}` as a full deployment Nix expression. See the README's asciinema and this file as an example: https://github.com/pdtpartners/nix-snapshotter/blob/v0.1.0/e...
