It's wild because it isn't true.
It was true from Sam's perspective, where all of those holes provided cover for fraud, embezzlement, and self-dealing (possibly up to and including the large “oops, unattributable hack” loss right as Sam was about to be shoved out the airlock.)

But that's because the holes were actually directed added utility from that perspective.
"Enshitification" is a trivial but pessimistic meme that mostly just means Internet services are not forever. They will change over time, sometimes for the worse. Most other things in the world change, too.

But this can take years to happen! If a website has good services for now, you can use them for now, and then shop around for a better deal if they get worse, or something better comes along.

Instead of trying to stop the world from changing when you can't, better to learn some resilience. Learn to live with transience.

It's also possible for websites to improve. Who knows?

But wait, you're talking about building a social website?

My advice is that more users means more problems. Many users are pretty deranged these days, by this and many other terrible memes. Don't worry about scaring them away, they'll scare themselves away regardless.

Build something for yourself and a few people you like. Explain up front that it's not for everyone, and you're not going to run it forever. Why commit to something that's not fun?
Ask any resident who lives in a town that has a Highway Bypass, whether or not their town is doing better since the Bypass went in.
At one point, my game playing and work kind of merged together.

Delivering features became quests, finding and fixing bad code was the equivalent of breaking barrels for the loot, and there are always lieutenants and bosses around generating defects...
Not really. A framework is something that has opinions about the structure and architecture of your whole application. A library doesn't.
I am a "Group Product Manager" and at least on skim, this article doesn't seem crazy. I would expect myself and folks on my team to articulate these things - or call out when we don't have something for a good reason (eg we're making a speculative bet.)

The thing that I don't expect is that the roadmap would stay static. Reality changes over time, you encounter new customers and opportunities, learn what's harder or easier than you thought, etc. So I would say "this is what we have today" and if that evolves somewhat even a few months down the line as we learn more, great. But at any given point, you should be able to articulate your best understanding in something that does hit against these checkpoints.
> JSON schemas to replace XSD

Mostly unused.

> YAML/JSON templating to replace XSLT

Generally much more user-friendly.

> jq to replace XPath

And much better at it, if only due to not shooting yourself in the foot by default with namespaces.

The problem with XML isn't that it supports schemas and namespaces. The problem is that it forces everyone to pay the costs of those things up-front, even if they don't use or care about them.
I've worked on react codebases, and non-react codebases. Maybe it's a coincidence, but I find the react ones in general to be harder to debug. And not great for my sanity either.

Glad it resonated, and I'm happy that your rule stops it from getting between you and your responsibilities
Electric tags in emacs make it mostly not a problem, and most editors have some equivalent: ‘it’ and ‘at’ motions in vim as well as vim-surround and emmet.

But, I agree that this is one of the worst parts of XML
I wouldn’t call it breakthrough, a step forward yes, but nit a breakthrough, since these movements are recorded and then replicated, it will be a breakthrough if for example you only teach the robot how to hold a spoon, and then it can figure out by itself how to use it.
Is the pancake and spatula problem actually that constrained though?

I know it isn’t as open ended as plenty of more important problems in robotics, but this doesn’t strike me as easy at all.

I’ve only dabbled in robotics as an entry level hobbiest, so I really don’t know the answer.
A lot of the Bud Light outrage wasn't just Mulvaney - their marketing exec openly said they didn't want those people as customers, so they complied.

There's the difference: People didn't want to buy Bud Light anymore, so their sales tanked.

One feature of cancellation is that the cancellee usually has people who want to hear the cancellee and buy their stuff, but activists try to get them kicked off intermediaries so the cancellee and their customers can't conduct business.

If it was just about making the person unpopular, that'd be an entirely different matter.
Good point, filing an issue to make that clear.

We do want to be international, but we did everything we could to narrow the initial idea. We see significant opportunities to facilitate Europe/Japan/US/other trade.
yamllint – A Linter for YAML Files
Yes, and you wouldn't believe you're made out of cells as well.

The brain can't see, hear, smell, etc directly and neither can it talk or move hands or feet. "All" it does is receive incoming nerve signals from sensor neurons (which are connected to our sensory organs) and emit outgoing nerve signals through motor neurons (which are connected to our muscles).

So the "data format" is really not that different.
Here's what my serious error likely was: not putting double quotes around IPv6 addresses with netmask, as is seen in this example YAML snippet:

allowed-ips: [0.0.0.0/0, "2001:fe:ad:de:ad:be:ef:1/24"]

Note that the IPv4 addy didn't need the double quotes, but the IPv6 addy did.

The parser should have picked this mistake up, and the server shouldn't have been crippled to the extent of needing a rescue.

I'm a pro musician and play a lot of gigs (and mix a lot of live music) on a 2016 12.9" ipad pro.

I used Forscore and have a bunch of fakebooks and custom charts on it. Even with a regular stylus it's been very useful (though I occasionally wish my 1st gen pencil had not died).

If I had to replace it I don't think I'd bother with a super new one, as this is plenty of horsepower / memory for the things I use it for. So probably way less than $1k, I'd think.
No no no, k8s mistake was actually not using YAML hard enough. They built an object system on top of a format that can act as a typed serialization format for generic objects and then decided to just ignore all that and implement it on top of primitive types

I don't know. JSON isn't much better.

{
"servers": {
"alpha": {"ip": "10.0.0.1", "role": "frontend"},
"beta": {"ip": "10.0.0.2", "role": "backend"},
}
}

YAML also isn't great:

{
"servers": {
# Frontend server is called alpha
"alpha": {"ip": "10.0.0.1", "role": "frontend"},
# Backend server is called beta
"beta": {"ip": "10.0.0.2", "role": "backend"},
}
}

Or, depending on your preference:

servers:
# Frontend server is called alpha
alpha:
ip: "10.0.0.1"
role: "frontend"
# Backend server is called beta
beta:
ip: "10.0.0.2"
role: "backend"

I don't think XML is much better or worse:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<servers>
<server id="alpha" ip="10.0.0.1" role="frontend" />
<server id="beta" ip="10.0.0.2" role="backend" />
</servers>

All of them suck in their own way. All of them work fine with autocomplete, type analysis, and autoformatting. The more things change, the more they stay the same.

JSON lacks comments, that's the biggest differentiator in my opinion.
The only reason that megalomaniac Zuck is open sourcing his LLM is because he is behind Open AI, so AI safety be damned.

That billion people can free themselves. They don’t need us ‘enlightened saviours’ coming to tell them what they should be doing.

Humans operate at community scale, not global scale. I don’t want a billion people in my community.

You might think that self-centered but it allows actual community bonds to form - on my instance last month I paid the $236 that someone was in arrears for their rent because they were part of my community and in need.
Everyone said this about global surveillance before Snowden and yet. I don't see the value in questioning if this is true or not, rather I think we should assume it's true and act as such, isn't that what modern security is about? (see: HTTPS/DNSSEC/DoH etc)

I frankly wouldn't be surprised if it's actually happening.
Regardless of the styling, Netplan is such a footgun!

I'm not convinced they'd define a sane schema for either.

Like you've noticed... the trying logic is naive. IIRC if this passes the mild sniff test it will go ahead and apply.

It can't realize changes on specific/named interfaces -- it insists on all or nothing.
High fixed costs, low marginal unit costs do seem like the sort of thing that ends up tax funded in a lot of cases. Like basic science (distributing the results if cheap), the electrical grid (one more connection is usually cheap enough), etc.
Show HN: A website that gives voice to unfulfilled customer needs
How does it work?

You just write a short title of what you want like “24/7 cafe in my town”, a short description why you need it - “I like to work late, don’t like to work at home and all coffee places close at 9” and how much you would pay per visit. If many people subscribe to your idea, hopefully someone will see it and open that coffee shop. You can also see what others want and maybe get inspired. Or you can just use the website to track your ideas.

What problems am I trying to solve?

1. Many startups fail because they build something that customers do not want
2. Customers do not get services they need because their voices are not heard

This project attempts to solve the two problems by giving the voice to the customers and a platform for startup founders to research customer demand backed product ideas.

The project is at its earliest stage, so any feedback, bug reports and feature requests are welcome!
16% of new car sales are BEVs already, and this percentage has been doubling in recent years. There's million EVs on UK roads. The infrastructure has been growing quickly too, and it's becoming pretty decent (I've been road tripping across UK and Europe, from middle of nowhere in Wales to middle of nowhere in Poland. It's fine. It works.).

A BEV used in a city needs to be charged about once a week. People who've never used one think cars are like cellphones.
I love how snappy and no-nonsense this is compared to other sites out there. I play casually at the moment and don't really buy/sell singles, but I like looking up card prices.

Any interest or possibility to add more card value information, like average market price or a history graph? If you had the best "card lookup" site in that sense, I would probably never feel the need to visit TCGPlayer again.

Another minor observation, looks like newlines in card flavor text are being rendered as a literal "\n" rather than being parsed.
I've owned a few EufyCams and a couple doorbell cams. They work pretty well; the motion sensing is a little too sensitive for an urban area, but they'd be perfect for suburban/rural areas. They can detect people, cars, and animals. The newest base station can be upgraded with a SATA HDD/SSD.

There was a security kerfuffle last year because motion notifications sent to your phone contained video previews which were then stored insecurely. They fixed that, and it's a feature you can disable. It's not nearly as bad as what has happened to Nest/Wyze cams where attackers can gain access to live video and even talk through the speakers.
Sorry to tell you, but your brain is doing millions of dot products - it's what the biochemical reactions in the synapses between neurons amount to. We already know how the brain works on that level, we just don't know how it works on a higher level.
In theory, the government is only bearing the cost for people who want to depend on socialized meals, which is different from giving everyone $500/month. With UBI, people are also putting that money back in the private sectors. With socialized meal programs, the government lean on the wealthy to ensure everyone has access to food, and uses that to employ people in the public sector.

> Both are equally prone to be inflationary as they require workers to provide the food and shelter without receiving anything real in return.

I'm not sure I follow why this would be inflationary, but it's also not what I was suggesting.

Even if this does lead to more inflation though, it ensures the government is responsible for securing food and housing for everyone, rather than something like UBI which might result in people who can't find work not actually being able to afford the essentials.
I like this idea. Don't know if I could go without `sudo` on my computer though, I tend to use it for work...
Here is a good analysis of the flash crash from that day: https://twitter.com/austerity_sucks/status/14523324727258194...

- Only 2% of that was at price of 10K or below.

- Most volume happened in $20-30K range, over 50% discount to mkt.

What's your experience been with innernet?
I guess it's going to be the new "enshittification."
The article explains that the difference is mostly due to tax changes (hence the "After Taxes" qualifier in the title):

This dramatic difference can be attributed to key changes in federal tax policy.

In 2022, several policies enacted by the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) expired, including an expansion of the Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) for filers without children and full refundability of the Child Tax Credit (CTC) and Child and Dependent Care Tax Credit (CDCTC). ARPA also increased the maximum amount of CTC.

In 2020 and 2021, most households also received Economic Impact Payments (EIP) that were no longer issued in 2022.

The rollback of these tax policies had the largest effect on post-tax income among the nation’s lowest-income households.

In 2021, for example, post-tax income at the 10th percentile, meaning at the bottom of the income distribution, was 17.1% higher than the corresponding pretax income estimate, reflecting the substantial boost that lower-income households received that year from the EIP and expanded CTC.

In contrast, the 2022 estimates of pretax and post-tax income at the 10th percentile were not significantly different (Figure 1).

It may not be wise, but it’s true.

I only know what OP wrote. And my money is that they will play.

The point of my comment was to help OP develop a long term strategy to help with their issue.

It’s no more one size fits all then “I’m never going to play this game.” It’s just one idea that may or may not work.

That being said, I’ll bet you $50 that OP plays BG3 within six months.
TIL about Parallel Sysplex. What a great name.
because copy and paste has trained everyone to expect information for free.

computing has no tools to protect software (tpm,
ect not running yet) and people wondering why nobody pays?

if i could copy and paste stacks of gold bars for free, i would. and i would never pay for gold bars again.

valuable software has to be protected if you want to cut out the intrusion, manipulation and addiction.

the missing option to protect valuable software is a big hole in the guts of computing. let free be free, let protected be protected.
That's a very good point. I guess we need a version type? Or something.

What about by-hand-inlining `std::find` makes the code better?
I believe XML has it baked directly into the official spec. JSONSchema is great, but I wouldn't call it a standard yet, and anecdotally I haven't seen it as often as I'd like in use (i.e. I either need to run kubectl --dry-run or use a separate third party solution to validate my changed yaml).
That's 2 years of the upstream LTS kernel. I would expect that major Linux distributions such as Redhat RHEL and Canonical's Ubuntu would continue to do their extended patch cycles against one of the upstream snapshots as they have done in the past. I think 2 years for upstream LTS is probably fine if the vendor patching methodology remains true. This also assumes that the usage of smaller distributions such as Alpine are more commonly used in very agile environments such as K8's, Docker Swarm, etc... Perhaps that is a big assumption on my part.
Regarding display production: I recently bought a Studio Display from Apple with the thought that it should last a very long time.

It bricked itself with a software update after maybe 3 months. I realized these things depend on Apple supporting the A13 chip in order for it to remain compatible with new technologies and, absurdly, to remain secure from exploits. A monitor.

I couldn’t regret my purchase much more and feel pretty stupid for not figuring this stuff out before I pulled out my credit card.

To add insult to injury, the display has been getting repaired for almost 2 months and there’s still no ETA on a fix. I highly recommend looking elsewhere for a display, both for ecological reasons but also because these things likely have a software-driven expiry date, with their hardware being relatively complex and error prone compared to most displays.

Also, they come with a barely usable camera. Audio is fine but it’s mind boggling how bad the camera is. What a waste.
In practice I think giving a stipend to buy shelter is less useful than providing shelter directly in our current political system where large amounts of local regulatory control have been captured by existing landowners — so more money in doesn't mean more production of housing. For example, it's illegal to build significant new housing in most of San Francisco, and NYC zoning and planning restrictions mean that the city has built less housing in the past decade than it built during the Great Depression, despite vastly more money being spent.

There's also the tough tradeoff that money is useful for more than just food and shelter, and so there's high incentive for unscrupulous people to try to get you to transfer it to them instead of covering your basic needs: for example, by spending millions on advertising campaigns to get you to stretch yourself to buy things you don't need; or just regular, transparently illegal things like extortion, selling addictive drugs, etc. It's not that people are dumb, it's that other people have incentive to try to get you to do things that are bad for you but good for them, if you have money. If you have shelter that can't be transferred, there's just a lot less incentive to try to abuse you.

Not that money is bad, just if we're trying to run an efficient program that covers basic needs (but not much else), directly providing the things we want to provide is IMO likely to be more efficient than cash transfers and unaccountably hoping that the cash is spent on what the package is aiming to provide.
> They cannot sell, offer you services, etc. ...unless you agree to something else, usually hidden in theirs reward program contracts.

The narrative is that the WEF is in kahoots with world leaders, since world leaders attend the WEF. Making this a moot point.

> All that is gone the second you move to using apple et al instead of a card issuing company.

Apple themselves state that they don't keep track of your information. Presumably, whatever authority that prosecutes credit card companies for using your info would also prosecute Apple. From what I found online, Samsung Pay and Google Wallet also refrain from using your transaction info.

There was a lot of optimism for these things a few years ago. Currently it is the end of the hype cycle, so lot of negativity. These transformer powered generative AI models has been a thing for years now, so most of the initial hype died down a long time ago.

And even though it was late in the hype cycle it was mostly optimism that got upvoted when ChatGPT got released, but since it was so late in the hype cycle of transformer models overall that hype died down in a few months.
Haha love your take on the extreme opinions people have on this game. And yeah, the thought has occurred to me that, like most anticipated things, it probably wouldn't be as exciting as I'd imagined once I was really playing it
> The most ancient networks on the planet, religious institutions, do it pretty well still.

Do they? What do you think has more impact today in the formation of a teenager living in Greece: the Orthodox Church or TikTok?

The problem to me is not so much the lack of existent alternative networks, but the sheer dominance of the shitty networks over the majority of the population. Even those who try to refuse engaging in these networks still have their lives affected by them.
I see a little bit of an accusation in OP that the media made up these stories about him considering charging all users. Elon seems to have some strong gaslighting abilities over some people here is where he claims it is fake:

Am I taking crazy pills or is he not, in the timestamp the community note pointed to suggesting exactly what the community note says the media made up? Is the community playing some kind of prank? Did his followers not click the link or am I missing some nuance?
Millions, billions, it's just one letter difference, right?
> How to avoid social media enshitification, if no one pays for it?

Paying for it is orthogonal. Social networks can be widely used, or they can be high quality (or they can be neither). They can't be both.
> but it doesn't for others

But it does work for others. Millions of people who play despite addictions or urges to play.

I’m familiar with addiction and the stories we tell ourselves and others. Just because I say “moderation doesn’t work for me” doesn’t mean it never works.

Just like when I say “I’ll never play again, this time I mean it” that doesn’t mean that works either.

People are different and there’s different things that work or don’t work. Addiction is weird and it distorts our perception of reality. Never trust anything an addict says, just trust their actions.

I’ve been to a lot of addiction meetings and it’s never very useful to trust “I’m not going to drink for 100 days. I promise.” It’s much better to focus talk on “I haven’t had a drink in 100 days.”
