Someone has to move the produce from farm to market, no? Transportation is a not insignificant cost of the food chain.

Nothing stops farmers from transporting it themselves and capturing that part of the value chain.
Similar to the "UN journalists" publication that shared that 20% of journalists killed were women, and that women should stop being targeted.

Blatantly ignoring the 80% of men of course.

Not to mention, who are they talking to anyway? Do you think people killing journalists will now say: OK, sorry, I'll stop. Or maybe pick only men?
They encourage people to wait to buy their product only until they aren't able to repair their current one.
Regarding formats: prior to the advent of straight-to-Modern sets triggered “rotations”, Modern was much cheaper to play than other formats. You could build a deck and keep it for years, with only marginal updates as new cards came out through Standard sets. High buy-in price, but low upkeep cost. This was opposed to Standard, where yearly rotations kept the format fresh, but was also a treadmill of having to buy new cards to be competitive.

In a large part, Pioneer has filled the void left by pre-“rotation” Modern, although it is arguable that from a gameplay perspective, Modern is much healthier after the Horizons sets.

I agree that EDH/Commander is problematic as the most popular format. It’s the “deep end” of the pool, per se. However, I think WotC has done a great job managing this with their balanced pre-constructed products, that have a decent upgrade path.

I don’t see Brawl as anything other than a digital-only format that is basically something else to do with cards you collect in MTGA.

Regarding acquiring new players, I think WotC has done a great job of this with Arena. It has resulted in the death of in-paper Standard, but is probably what has brought more players to the game than anything else, although it has its own set of issues.

But you are right that several things about the game are suboptimal.
This is a foundation of the liberal tradition and one on which e.g. Smith and Marx would agree: human-scale industry is among our most fundamental (and prolific) predilections

Moreover that it tends to produce better outcomes than the frantic, often brutal thrust of the greater industrial revolution

This is not to condemn labor-saving ingenuity but to advise deep consideration with regard to social and material technologies
Because due to climate change and human action the land has been drying up over the past 50 years and it's not economical to raise cattle there anymore.

I agree: if you want a non-terrible social network, it has to be exclusive, either in people or in ways to engage with content.

If everyone is on it and can see everyone on it, then the worst people with the hottest takes will always get the most engagement, which the service will prioritize (because it’s lucrative, or because it thinks the things people engage with are the things people are interested in) creating a death circle.

Trending lists, virality, etc. ensure that platforms will get worse over time. I don’t think paying for it changes that math at all.
Someday?

There is CardTrader that is mostly Euro too, and that is a solid website IMO. Europe has much lower fees (~5%), so competing there is different than in the US (~15%).
Just to be clear I’m explicitly saying the feelings are valid, but that saying them over and over doesn’t add anything to the conversation.
I think those people would be equally addicted, anxious or inept on a 'healthy' platform, if such a thing could exist. Short of net-nannying every taxpaying American, there's no real way to stop people from hurting themselves with technology. It's entirely fair to say "not my problem" to something like this, what you're largely describing are self-enabled behavior loops.

You want the real blackpill? The back-shelf, hidden box with an expiry of 'sometime soon' pill?

There's no way to reconcile what everyone wants with a single platform, product or set of laws. Twitter flew on the borrowed wings of RSS and regular blogging, serial-killing every syndication platform it could find to sustain the business of information. It's the "solution" to our current problem, except it's got a history of being owned by despots and is struggling to turn a dime in a slight recession. What Elon Musk did was a more extremist version of what Dorsey would be forced to do someday, which is why Jack and his shareholders folded.

In my opinion, what's happening right now is the inevitable curtain fall. The emperor is plainly naked, and we're still running articles about his new clothes.
Not a poker player, so maybe I'm missing something obvious, but: How did he think you were cheating? You had no way of knowing what that card was, right? And if you did somehow know what it was, surely you could have pre-arranged more subtle ways to tip off a player you were conspiring with?
I developed and maintain two apps, both in native versions. We do quite a bit of custom graphics, prefer animation, lots of BLE (we push it in interesting ways, both characteristic counts and throughput) as well as have a mapping component that includes custom overlays which are user editable through direct drawing/dragging on top of the map. Oh, and some on device persistence, basic http fetching, and mqtt as well.

I agree with the sentiment that Android is just such a years long train wreck. I am currently rewriting one of the Android apps in 100% (as much as possible) "modern" and @Compose Android. So far... it seems better. But maybe the newness will eventually wear off. Some will the credit the "paradigm", but UIKit demonstrated to me that you could be a solidish "OO" ADK. I attribute @Compose to just being better engineered as a quasi functional approach than Android original stuff ever was as a Java implementation.

I am so worn out with the overall approach though. It is a ton of duplicate work. But I despair that the alternative would be no better? It seems that while today, I duplicate a lot of work, I get to choose how complex and coupled the various layers are. I do my best to just use stock stuff and not mash a bunch of stuff in. With a "web tech" solution, it seems the duplicity just rotates, so that the duplicity is just replaced by the complexity of trying to coordinate lots of disparate technologies, having to grow versed in even more domains, so that intelligent assesments can be made when things don't work as expected, and in which bucket/layer to focus ones efforts for each feature.

All that said, would you still encourage me to do as as you've done? I am honestly open.
You’re saying you have partial sync already working for browser sized datasets say 5k rows which are an arbitrary subset of server records which are much larger? What limitations are there on the query criteria for client-synced records, can the subset be expressed as an arbitrary join? How do you implement local first on arbitrary join?
It’s a little strange to call the government sending or not sending checks to people that didn’t owe any taxes to begin a change in tax policy. They are changes in social spending policy.

I don't understand how anybody can be surprised by this. You help lower income people, suddenly there's a whole new market for products that were previously out of their reach. You cut back investment in the lower classes (austerity), or implement "means tested" benefits, the economy suffers, and people suffer.

It seems like, idk, maybe we should do our best to put money in the pockets of the poorest people (regardless of the cost) and create the postwar great society that JFK and LBJ were championing.
I believe, the traditional exchanges either won't fill outrageous trades or would undo them if the counterparty can prove it was an honest mistake.
There are already methods to do that in neural networks, it's called "pruning"

Are those really competition anymore?

They're just legacy now IMO and their long term support requirements are a result of this, companies that haven't gotten rid of them by now aren't likely to do it any time soon.

I hate seeing them go. I wasn't such a fan of Solaris but I was of HP-UX. But its days are over. It doesn't even run on x86 or x64 and HP has been paying Intel huge money to keep itanium on life support, which is running out now if it hasn't already.

At least Solaris had an Intel port but it too is very rare now.

No offense to the creator of YAML, but: The fact that it became one of the de-facto standards for cloud tooling is an absolutely damning statement about the state of the industry.

I get that XML is about as sexy as mainframes, and that a lot of folks here probably have PTSD from working with Java/Spring web apps, but YAML is about the worst of all worlds.

Though I think the real problem is that real-world configuration files are way too complicated for a simple/dumb/logic-less representation like a .ini/.conf file, so someone thinks to add some logic to is - which is just config-as-code. In a terrible programming language.

If you want config-as-code (and you want to!), just do it properly and use a proper programming language for it. Don't care which one, be it JavaScript, Python, Go, PDP-11 Assembly, or Rust. But please stop with these half-measure DSLs that just don't cut it.
They refused to replace it for quite a while and just recently agreed to replace it, but that was a week ago. It’s been a brutal customer service experience. It got 2 new logic boards while they tried to track down the problem.

At this point I still don’t know when I’ll have a working display in my possession.

I suppose the laws where I am don’t work in my favour. I firmly insisted I get a refund after about 45 days, but they flatly refused and shortly after agreed to a replacement. I still don’t have that, though.

I acknowledge there's pattern of high-profile assassinations in history that raise questions and seem interconnected. However, attributing them to a small covert group is a logical leap.

What would convince you they're not conspiring together?

As for international organizations, my point is that even ratified and official organizations are not immune to political pressures and special interests. How do we ensure transparency, efficacy, and fairness when the existing entities can't do that sufficiently well to maintain unipolarity?
The problem isn't that XML's decimal type doesn't distinguish between 1.2 and 1.20 - it's that versions aren't decimals in the first place.

The fact that versions often contain numbers separated by decimal points or that often times, versions only have two components or that minor versions may rarely exceed 9 for a particular product are merely coincidences.

1) If you go click Magic on TCGPlayer, it doesn't get rid of all the non-Magic stuff. And the feature development isn't focused everyday on MTG, it's focused on TCG, and it's missing an infinite list of changes that we personally want. Plus, you can't build a community around TCG, but you can around MTG.

2) TCGPlayer is the market price, and it's a nicely liquid market. And their owner eBay is worth $25B. And there is stiff competition from whatnot.com and goat.com in collectibles. It is an incredibly hard and fun world to build in. I think e-commerce is going to continue to evolve, and Amazon or whatever isn't the end state.

I know anti-car attitudes annoy some people, but we really should drive this home(pun not intended but taken advantage of). People keep using "a tank of gas" as a fungible, graspable unit of carbon emissions while not realising reducing that very thing often has an out-sized impact on carbon emission, sometimes more than other things like reusing clothes, internet usage of this or that services or saas, and so on. Transport is by-and-large the #1 source of emissions in the US[0], the majority of which are passenger cars and trucks[1]. Reducing car dependency would be one of the largest contributors to sustainability the US (and many other nations, but likely not as much as America) could do to have an impact on climate change

[0] https://www.epa.gov/ghgemissions/sources-greenhouse-gas-emis...

[1] https://www.epa.gov/ghgemissions/sources-greenhouse-gas-emis...

Pulled quote from [1]: "The largest sources of transportation-related greenhouse gas emissions include passenger cars, medium- and heavy-duty trucks, and light-duty trucks, including sport utility vehicles, pickup trucks, and minivans. These sources account for over half of the emissions from the transportation sector."

Hadn't heard of that dagster feature, thats really cool.
Google showed up & offered to pay a huge amount of money to extend LTS support 3x, iirc.

At the time, Linux 4.14 was shipping I think.

Personally it made me a bit sad, because it created real permission for Android to never upgrade kernels. I'd hoped eventually Android would start upgrading kernels, thought the short LTS would surely force them to become a respectable ecosystem that takes maintenance seriously. Making Super LTS was a dodge; suddenly it was ok that 4.14 straggles along until 2024.

Also an interesting note, supposedly there's a "Civil Infrastructure Platform" that supposedly will have some support until 2029 for 4.14! The past never is gone, eh?

Supposedly Project Treble is a whole new driver abstraction in I think mostly userland (maybe?) whose intent is to allow kernel upgrades without having to rewrite drivers (not sure if that is the primary/express goal or was just often mentioned). I'm not sure if Android has yet shipped a kernel upgrade to any phones though; anyone know of an model running an upgraded kernel?
I think helm's use of YAML makes it worse because it uses a text template library to manipulate structured data, and thus requires annoying stuff like {{indent}} and {{nindent}} when you want to insert objects. To me, whenever I find myself using one of these indent functions I'm reminded of the well known pitfalls of using regex to parse HTML.

I don't know what I'd prefer, exactly. Probably JSON, or better yet JSON5.

You are not surprised, yet your explanation is entirely about indirect effects, even though the cause is removal of tax credits and that $1400 EIP checks were sent out in 2021 but not 2022.

With the "never break userspace" guarantee, is there ever a reason to want to be on an LTS kernel instead of the latest stable one, other than proprietary kernel modules?

Small comment on framework only somewhat related to its sustainability as a country. I live in Asia (Singapore) now after buying mine in America, and I cannot buy replacement parts now, even though most of the parts are made in Taiwan which is quite close to here. I am guessing it's likely because framework cannot make their nice markup if I buy from their Taiwanese suppliers directly, but it has dented somewhat the repairability of these things when the effective supply chain you have is not present (available for Americans and Europeans on their online store but not people in Asia).
Honestly if the config layout fits in ini, there's no reason not to use it.

YAML is great for human-readable config, and there are footguns.

XML is terrible for human-readable config. JSON is not great for human-readable config. TOML is okay for human-readable config.

The problem is there's no clean way to abstract strings, bools, lists, objects, trees, etc. into a human-readable configuration syntax that does not have a footgun.
It's not clear that people do not want to pay for it - none of the major social media network people want to be on have ever offered a paid option that would disable ads/dark patterns or add valuable features.

The very few social networks that may have tried this were too small to matter even as free services, let alone paid, so no surprise it didn't work out.
What was the trademark situation?
So I haven't been keeping on top of this so please correct me if I'm wrong anywhere, but what I've seen to get around this in some experimental hydroponic designs is using piezoelectric ultrasound emitters to make a fog that plant roots hang into, keeping them at a certain level of humidity. The issue I recall they encountered was that the roots ended up making these dendrites that kind of went nowhere and it inhibited growth. I wonder if they've come up with some kind of hybrid method at this point which solves any of these problems because that sounds like a pretty good use case for that kind of technology if water retention is important. I think I saw something like this at a ritz grocery store in California growing basil somewhere but it didn't really look like it was making the best basil I've ever seen or anything, and I didn't really look that hard to see how it worked but it did look a little foggy in there.
$1400 checks amounted to 8.8% of household income? I think the math is off here.
Ask HN: Dealing with Service Hassles in California – Need Your Advice
Hey Everyone,

I hope you're all doing well. I'm dropping a message here because I could really use some advice on a situation I've been stuck in as a customer of California-based companies.

I've been a customer in good-standing for a long time and have generally been pretty happy with the service. But recently, I've hit a bit of a snag, and it feels like I'm caught in a never-ending loop of service requests.

Whenever I reach out to their customer service, it just leads to more of the same service requests, and I'm finding it tough to get any real assistance. They schedule it on their time with a very short window to respond (which has often passed by the time I see the message). It's a real pain because it's eating up a ton of my time and energy, and I can't help but wonder if they're doing it on purpose.
;
So, I thought I'd ask you all if you have any ideas or tips on how I can tackle this. I'd love to find a way to sort this out without having to fill out more of those pesky service requests. Any advice you can share would be awesome.

Thanks a bunch for your help.
I've played one of those spots by union square. Was fun to feel like a gangster for an evening but ultimately not a crowd I want to spend a lot of time around.
Open datasets may still make the trainers more vulnerable, as I don't think the plaintifs even have proof OpenAI is training on full copyrighted material directly.

But even if thats not the case, small time trainers do not always have the resources to fight a takedown. This could given large entities like OpenAI an advantage over smaller trainers.
I'd take that bet, will give me more motivation to prove you wrong ;)
You can deduce odds by seeing a burn card. It could help more or less in certain situations
Can you explain why that is?

I find hooks are flexible enough that I tend to be able to implement more sane and manageable reactivity, not the opposite.

It was called OpenTF or OpenTerraform. Hashicorp might have had an issue with using the name Terraform.
Always loved his contributions to the Ken Burns Civil War doc.
Yep, I agree with this. The game’s complexity is an order of magnitude greater than the early days, and much of the issue is self-inflicted by WotC.

However, I’d argue that the only eternal format of significance is EDH, and it is very much not competitive. It’s popularity is just as much a curse as it is a blessing for the game, IMO.
