This really speaks to me - rrdtool is criminally underutilized. Great work!

I did something different but in a similar vein for one server network. We had Seq already deployed for log monitoring so instead of setting up a separate network/node/app health monitoring interface I configured everything to regularly ping seq with a structured log message containing the needed data that could be extracted and graphed with seq’s limited oob charting abilities in the dashboard. Not perfect, but simpler.
Thank you. Any suggestions for locating pictures on various os's and devices ( iphone, android, linux, old windows boxes)?
Every now and then I Facebook conspiracy nuts talking about how “15 minute cities” are a way for Big Government to enforce a police state and take away people’s freedom of movement. I always have a good laugh because nobody is actually daft enough to seriously consider using the police to force through an idea that is so squarely meant to be a guide for urban planning. I’d imagine that the fantasy of a police state enforced by commuter limitations is squarely the hobby of that particular conspiracy niche.
I love that spelling for some reason. Can't put my finger on why
No, no, no, and no. In all of those cases the killing is justified by more than just bloodlust. I am not a pacifist and never have been.

Executions are different. People are not afraid to admit that they support executions because they like knowing that hated people will suffer. That is not something I will consider acceptable under any circumstances. If there were any evidence that capital punishment served a purpose beyond feeling good I might change my tune. But there isn't, so I won't.

You yourself admitted executions serve no practical purpose, so your self-defense hypotheticals are irrelevant.
Clearly, Amazon is not concerned at all about AI written books.

Anyway, it's getting late in the UK and I have two more books to write before bedtime.
Now imagine you don't give a shit about EU customers and just having to think of what our idiotic rules are is a waste of money. And all of this because I want to use google analytics and see how many people my landing page is getting? I would redirect us as well.

I did the same for VATMOSS when I was not in Europe: if I need to spend 5 days implementing VAT rules and collecting proof, I need to evaluate what I'll make from EU customers and if that's not likely to be significantly more than implementation cost you can all go and buy stuff somewhere else.

I just blame our idiot EU politicians for restricting freedom on the internet.
Says who?

That’s a childish and destructive line of thought. No surprise it’s common in tech.
Mathematical knots use endlessly slippery and stretchy rope. Most real knots operate on friction one way or another.

Anyway, as a more direct answer to your question, mathematical ropes use a single loop of rope. By definition the only one that can be tied this way (without breaking the rope) is the unknot.

There are several different real knots that can be tied from an unbroken loop of rope.
Language Design: Rust’s Struct Initializer Syntax Was a Mistake
Well, yes, Amtrak in the Northeast is convenient if you want to go downtown at a stop. It’s mostly a poor choice if you want to rent a car and go somewhere else in which case you’re probably better flying or just driving in the first place.

Not sure about car-centric philosophy. It’s about the destination for a given trip. No judgement about it.
(just to add, the Latin plural of or "stylus" is "stylī", so in English we can use "styli" or "styluses")
If people/teams are as or more productive working remote than in the office, wouldn't Amazon make more money by keeping them remote? Why would they choose to bring them back into the office where they'd be less productive?
> They experimented, and they discovered what happens if you try to claim land that isn't yours.

Well, its about claiming land that the Croatian government doesn't even claim to own.

Ironically, the fact that the Croatian government kicked them out, harms the Croatian government's legal claims with Serbia.
When I do sand blasting a have a little box I do it in. With windows. I wonder why they don't have such an arrangement for the bench cutting. No matter the health hazard, it doesn't sound economical to cover a whole kitchen in dust for a two feet cut.

Some of the immediate things that came to mind were making a case that integrates the phone with the keyboard; and a small battery to extend the life of the phone since the keyboard adds to the formfactor anyway.

Bonus points if this creates a market for a small phone again (iphone 12 user here).
These companies are gonna die and they will become cautionary tail for the future.

Ford's situation is particularly interesting because until Tesla, they were the only major US automaker to never go bankrupt.

Their taking in massive losses (EV transition) and their balance sheet looks very ugly.

Also as an aside, it will also be a early warning signal for all these companies. It will provide an entire cohort of CEOs with the mandate to invest heavily in automation to bridge the gap.

You how the saying goes, "be careful what you wish for"
I think there’s a misunderstanding about what communism is and that “natural human desire”, well what doe it mean, really? I’ve heard this narrative before but it sounds so self-serving.
They're doing it because unions pay people while they're on strike, their war chests aren't big enough to maintain a full strike for long, and striking members might not be eligible for unemployment (this varies by state).

Picketing all three automakers at once might have been a mistake because it means any strike will ultimately be shorter-lived.
The first time I found money stamped with this .wheresgeorge.comI looked up the ID on the site. The person had written pages and pages of how much they hated their ex wife and how this website was the only way he could connect with his kids. Kind of weird and funny and sad all at the same time. Also not at all what I expected.
How will you charge for the api calls? Upfront in the game prize? If yes how do you handle players that play a lot?
Fair enough! I'll dismiss that statement of yours.

> This situation is effectively the exact same one as Pakistan harboring Osama bin Laden, then USA killing him on Pakistani soil, in spite of the two of them being "allies". Replace Pakistan and USA with Canada and India respectively.

There was absolutely no dispute in the international community about the guilt of Osama bin Laden and the direct connection between him, Al Queda, and dozens of terrorists attacks including 9/11.

As far as I understand, the same is not the case about Nijjar, and he is in no way believed to be the core "mastermind" the way Osama was.
It's a good point, but I'm not sure how to use those gestures for text entry. TFA didn't go down the multi-touch route either in their proposal. But it's possible I'm not being creative enough!
I wonder whether USB Network might be an option to reduce the latency a little. L

Plus then keeps the Pi WiFi free for regular use rather than as a private AP network.
Neither of them claim it. Why is their opinion on land they do not claim relevant? (Other than because of force.)
Thanks for the thought on AdWords, that's at least one route to possibly verify. Setting up something where you can at least check if a "secondary expected result", yet not an "obviously connected result" occurred.

Out of all the people Google is charging me for, did anybody actually buy anything? It's not obviously connected, but if you got 1000 people clicking, because they were "supposedly" interested, then you'd figure 1 or 2 might actually buy what they clicked on (or at least start the shopping cart process)?
Seems like Serbia’s position is that Croatia owns it and Serbia has no intent to administer it given that, while Croatia’s position is that (1) either Serbia or Croatia owns it, (2) it's probably Serbia, and Croatia makes no positive claim, but also won’t force the issue pending international arbitration to clarify the border, and (3) Criatia will continue administering it as an interim matter until the border is resolved.

So it seems clear that (1) its either non-ceded Croatian territory being administered by Croatia with a diplomatic choice not to make an affirmative claim without arbitration of the border, or (2) it's by prior treaty Serbian territory, which may or may have been ceded to Croatia, which is being administered by Croatia without challenge to any rights Serbia (and only Serbia) may have.
You're thinking bandwidth, not latency. The lag is detectable with a single keystroke.
Why would you think it doesn't matter? It seems rather unlikely that a major organ would consistently retain a whole lot of useless complexity and functionality across a huge range of animals.
The snakeberry (also a nightshade) -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solanum_dulcamara -- has fruits that look almost identical to a tomato, and while not deadly... incredibly uncomfortable and bitter.

I came across these on a trek in the woods, and thought they were wild tomatoes at first. Fruit looks identical. But of course, I knew never to eat a nightshade. It's not surprising that Europeans thought tomatoes were poisonous. Nightshades are no joke.

People produce less text with more errors in more time on mobile. I actively avoid having to type anything on mobile. If I have my laptop open, I'll use whatsapp or signal on that. I often wait replying on either of those until I get my laptop. Just way less frustrating to not have to correct >25% of my key presses. If I have to use the mobile keyboard, I'll often just send a message with typos, no capitals, and skip some of the more redundant words. It seems lots of people do that. Phones just suck for text input. Longform text entering on a phone is by and large not a thing for most people. It's mostly a read only device for passively consuming news and media. And taking photos.

I find it telling that one of the more popular addons for ipads are covers with a builtin keyboard. It's a way bigger device than an iphone. But yet the keyboard sucks enough that Apple sells covers with a keyboard. Of course, all the touchscreen keyboard problems that the ipad has are magnified on their iphone. Yet, they don't have a solution for that. And they also sell a stylus for the ipad. Because fingers lack precision. It's the same OS but there seem to be no such options for the iphone. Does the stylus even work with an iphone? Is that deliberate? It's not like people are going to be magically more precise on an iphone relative to a huge ipad. Conclusion, Apple just accepts that that's the way things are. And besides, Steve Jobs would turn in his grave if they dared to ship an iphone with a stylus.

Hardware keyboards on phones used to be a thing. I worked at Nokia back in the day. Really nice keyboards. Blackberries were popular too. People wrote lots of stuff on those things. I wouldn't mind a little pocket laptop. It's not like my pixel 6 is small or subtle in my pocket. It would be more useful with a slide out keyboard.
Would that even work? In the “seated at the table” position, the edge of the chair seat is below the table top, so if you purely rotate the chair, I would think the backrest would hit the table top before you have turned the seat by 90 degrees.

That’s why some picnic tables have seats that swivel out. That requires a heavier table, though.
Ideal Scholarship Application Process
If you make it free, then everyone will choose the fastest one.. which means it will no longer be faster. So in order for time saving measures to work, you have to require selectivity.

Paying is an easy way to select for those who value it the most, which are the frequent fliers. If you’re a business traveler or otherwise someone who travels a lot, the price is small compared to the flights and the time saved is very large. That will be the inverse for those who need it least, the infrequent travelers.

Yes some people who travel infrequently will choose to pay for the faster line, but then they are also subsidizing the extra cost of staff to run the other systems.

The idea that this is meant to put tranches of society on display is ludicrous.

Knowing a number of people who have to travel a lot for work, I might even say that most of the poor shlubs in the precheck lines who have to travel monthly or more frequently are the real losers in the grand scheme. Traveling in flying sardine cans to make a living is no fun.
I was recently introduced to the “lottery factor” as a less morbid alternative. As in, if one of us won the lottery tomorrow and quit on the spot what would happen.

As an excellent application of knot theory, the video demonstrates two ways to avoid the problem of untangling messy earphone cords. The first one, which I happened to figure out by myself, is to store them confined to a tight space. The second one, which strains the cord a bit more but still appears practical, is demonstrated around 31:20.
that's what should be illegal: to give discounts based on whether you disclose your PII or not. that's because they were already investigated once on allegations that they would sell this data to insurance, but that's hard to prove. if the discount was straight up illegal, prosecutors would have a much easier case

in the Brazilians drugstores case, it's absurd, it's like, a $400 drug sold for $300 (mumbers in local currency) if you agree to disclose the equivalent of your SSN. how can your data be worth so much?

truth is that they don't expect so sell a single unit for $400 - the price difference in this case is enough for, in practice, providing your PII is mandatory
The rat/postrat scene is full of scams. Look up Rheos Propulsion lol - they’ve flipped to ‘muon weapons’ now and still desperate chasers throw money at them.

Clojure.

Clojure is an objectively superior language, and it used to have a lot of potential. I used it for four years, and even built up a nice sized engineering team around it.

But its ecosystem was already tenuous when Rich Hickey curb stomped it with a rant about how the ecosystem didn’t matter — only Rich Hickey mattered.

At that point it became clear to me that the ecosystem would gradually vanish into non-significance, especially given the core team’s tendency to co-opt popular existing libraries into Clojure itself (thus stifling any further innovation).

Clojure is an objectively better language than Python and JavaScript, but both have an objectively better ecosystem of frameworks and libraries. It would be foolish to choose Clojure over them.
I don't know about that, anything red looks tasty to me. When I was a kid I tried to eat holly berries before they were smacked out of my hand. Of course not all tomatoes are red, but I assume at least some varieties back then were.
Alot of games came out that were termed point and click during that time. They mainly used the scumm engine and were cartoony. Myst was unique since it tried to create a realistic environment and the story was geared towards adults.
It's kind of amazing that we have all the technology to that easily in a web browser.
I believe it's stuck in some of our memories since it was not fast pace so you really took in all the sights and sounds. Each frame of movement was like an artwork.
Also btw "die" is a matter of perspective. The shareholders will be wiped out, a huge chunk of the management core will replaced and probably a massive layoffs.

Oh and their pensions wiped out (can't have pensions without a company to pay for them).

If your friends are looking for feedback, you can pass on that at least one person on the internet finds it in very bad taste for them to describe the delay in treatment as a "civilizational embarrassment" while planning to charge $20k for a dose.

You know what was great about text selection on the N9? When you dragged the cursor, you got that haptic tick-tick-tick for each character the cursor passed over. I'll admit I don't entirely understand why this was so beneficial, but somehow it made it substantially easier to get the cursor to the right spot.

Dairy is scary: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcN7SGGoCNI

Derived from a bovine's udder, cow milk is essentially a white, viscous secretion containing fats, hormones, bioaccumulated pesticides and herbicides, and sometimes pus and blood from infected teats, all filtered through a mammary gland that often comes into contact with dirt and feces during the extraction process.

Cow milk, routinely touted as a wholesome beverage, can legally contain up to 400 million somatic cells (often referred to as pus) per milliliter in the U.S., and traces of blood, all originating from inflamed and possibly infected bovine udders, making one wonder about the purity of the seemingly innocent white liquid.

Cow's milk also naturally contains hormones, including Insulin-like Growth Factor-1, estrogens, progesterone, prolactin, and oxytocin; also some cows receive artificial hormones like rBST to enhance production; when consumed regularly, those hormones may impact the growth and reproductive functions of consumers.

In the relentless cycle of dairy production, cows endure forced impregnation and a shortened lifespan — typically 5 years instead of the potential 25+. The record lifespan for a cow is 48 years. Newborn males are typically culled immediately, while females are separated from their mothers shortly after birth, crying for each other usually for weeks.

And we haven't addressed the land needs and environmental impact of dairy production. This includes deforestation for pastures, high water use, greenhouse gas emissions from cows, runoff of pesticides and fertilizers polluting water, and contributions to soil degradation and biodiversity loss.

But sure, soy mik is worse ;)
1) I expect a lot of people saw the site and didn't realize it was satire, 2) as a Leftist tech person who reads Hacker News, whenever there's a discussion on here that is even slightly political, and I see the responses from a lot of HN users, I remind myself I read Hacker News for the insightful tech discussion.
Sweet. We could pull the colours from an array instead of generating them randomly:

javascript: (function() {
const colors = ['red', 'green', 'blue'];
const setColor = (el, idx) => {
el.style.outline = `1px solid ${colors[idx % colors.length]}`;
[...el.children].forEach(child => setColor(child, idx + 1));
};
setColor(document.body, 0);
})();

Thus green is always inside red. Any advances?
Yeah it's just a joke, lightly poking fun at contemporary commentary worrying about the viability of open source projects perceived as too centralized around one key person. I don't know how serious the concerns ever were, though keep in mind that the idea of relying on open source software was still novel at the time.

As I recall, a lot of the world wide web seemed to be jestful writing of a similar tone (irreverently humorous but ultimately playfully cynical at most, not darkly cynical as today) in those days.
I don't quite follow. If a child dies due to abuse by a single parent, who is it who you suppose would become a vigilante? The child is unlikely to have had any adult friends or relations that would want retribution so much that they kill the late child's parent.

If this was manslaughter/murder of an unrelated adult, then I could see that there could conceivably be some friends or relations inspired to vigilantism, but this thread has mainly been about manslaughter of children by parents due to incompetence.
The solution to data tracking is more data tracking?

This would work if everything would be done in bulk and by officials. It wouldn't work if it was just something citizens would have a right to know but would have to do all the legwork in order to uncover (sending out dozens of requests) and then would have to sue entities in court.

It seems simpler to regulate PII based on consent and strict need-to-know principles.

This strike and the Hollywood strikes are going to be really interesting to watch play out because both are industries in transition, and there's more negotiating from positions of weakness rather than strength on both sides.
I really like the idea behind μMon. It reminds me of when software was simpler. I remember using a program called "Everything" by voidtools. It was small but could search a lot of files quickly. Nowadays, some projects use big tools like Elasticsearch just to search a few things. Some even use PostgreSQL, a big database, for small tasks. I wish more software would keep things simple.
Some had a trackball which was fairly precise.
Being cynical about everything is intellectual laziness.

It feels like you are being smart and critical but blindly rejecting and doubting everything is no different from blindly accepting or believing everything. Instead of observing each new idea and evaluating it on its merits, you've already determined what your response will be. It's a biased filter on everything you see.

We should aim to be openminded but also willing to reject things that don't make sense (looking at you, NFT bros)
> why is this mandate lacking data

Easy: it's a decision made by the S team who can get away with not justifying themselves to ICs. They usually would show their working even though they don't have to, but in this case that would reveal their true reasoning (stealth layoffs, pressure from local governments who gave tax incentives to build now empty offices). So, they make up some stuff about RTO increasing innovation.
