> Wouldn't this account for well under 10% of potential ticket buyers, though?

For this specific example? Sure. But then people have other kinds of conflicts with other people.

And pissing off even 10% of your customers is bad.

> At any rate, you'd still have the option of returning your ex's ticket, and buying a new one in your new partner's name.

By then they're sold out. You can't get any other tickets. If you could exchange the ticket you have for one in another name then so can a scalper.

> The funny thing is that, while on occasion this situation might come up, and someone will end up paying a little more to see the show, overall they (and everyone else) will pay less to see shows in general, since scalping has been (in theory) eliminated.

The problem in this situation is not that you have to pay more, it's that you can't go to the concert with your current SO even though you have two tickets. You can get a refund for one or both of the tickets, but you don't want a refund, you want to go to the concert with your new SO.
Yeah, people are wierd. I don't know what kind of narciscism you need to have to think you and what you have to say is interesting to someone else. I don't strike up random conversations because:

a) I'd have to listen to them discuss (probably) the footy, or their Rav-4. That's incredibly tedious.

b) They sure don't browse HN, and to have an interesting conversation, I'd have to explain a lot of things instead of being able to debate or explore them.
Is that why most advice you see online is to go rock climbing or hiking to meet friends?
This is good feedback. If anything, we should all be more paranoid about whom we share our data with. And the contacts in your phone book are especially sensitive. Let me take a note and see what we can do about that. I don't see why we shouldn't allow for users to add their contacts manually.
Did the people who you saw do this mid-flight/mid-unwanted-conversation, in order to escape their chatty neighbors, or was this more in the early phases of the flight when people were getting settled?

When people see my seat and see that it’s better than theirs, and simply ask me for it, sometimes I cave in in the interest of being nice. It’s cool that they want a nice gift from me, but even if I say a polite “no,” it makes me feel defensive about occupying a seat that I picked for a reason, under the same rules by which they picked theirs.
Wezterm does pretty much everything.
Just start the server using:

python -m http.server 8000

to share a directory over a local network. Then you can point a web browser on another device to port 8000 of the server's IP address to download files. However, this can be slow for larger files.

A friend wrote a faster and more sophisticated version of `python -m http.server 8000` in rust which also supports uploads, you can read about here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37628347
Of course you are free to use whatever words you want to use to means what you want to mean, but we're talking about social norms and communication clarity. Open source has a specific meaning to specific communities and I see no reason to change.
> Regardless, s-2 glass fiber is probably a better choice

I would appreciate if you can elaborate on that. Not being a material scientist, it's not obvious to me which option is a better choice here, but I am curious to learn.
NFT strategy was rather simple: hire so called celebrities to advertise the scam, profit from suckers, pull the rug.
Ridiculous editorializing, spider silk is remarkably tough. But it's specific strength is less than fiber glass.
I mean that's not my point, but the guy on Twitter, I was merely answering the previous poster who far fetched it.

If "relationships matter" and you need an app to remind you of that, I'd posit you have a larger problem than any app can solve. Consider putting down the device and connecting with your peeps in the real world every once in a while.
It was determined the same way FAANG, Banks, and others have determined in-person is best: "haha, the economy is slowing, get back to the office you F*(&# losers".

Absolutely breathtaking level of cynicism from executive class that as soon as interest rates went up, hiring market cooled, and the power balance between workers & bosses swung back their way, suddenly in-office was "most productive".

100% vibes and "because we say so / we can get away with it".
The parasite is mainly in Hawai'i (it reported said that many Hawai'ians do not eat salads anymore) and now Florida, expanding northwards in North America.

Up in Canada I've been eating my garden leafy greens, but experts say global warming and globalization are involved in the spread.

This year they found rat lungworm in Valencia, Spain. Experts are calling this an emerging disease problem, previously confined to tropic and subtropical countries.
I sympathize with your situation, and I appreciate that you're trying to be a cool parent who accepts your daughter unconditionally for who she is, but I wonder if it's even possible to know where the limits are on that, or how much she feels that way. Personally, I grew up in a really supportive family, but I still had a whole lot of hangups as a teenager that meant I didn't always want my parents to see what I was doing or looking into on the internet. Some of those private interests turned into major parts of who I am, and I don't really want to imagine the world where I had to worry about what my parents saw.

Would it have been better if I'd talked these things out with my parents? Maybe, but would I have? Or would I have just self-censored my dreams rather than face that conflict?

I guess maybe as a middle ground, maybe keep watching while she's young but pull back as she gets older?
For ethical AI, its research must be independent from big tech
... and clearly not viable. Do you think an artist can do 1000 shows a year?
https://devblogs.microsoft.com/oldnewthing/
I don't see any reason why platform and artists are alright with tickets reselling, it's madness to me that no artists "consortium" has demanded a change already.

In France, a famous youtuber has partnered with the major platform to forbid any ticket resell for their show, and it worked pretty well. But still it was only one time.
All court records, filings, judgements, laws, and reviews are public records unless sealed by the courts. It's a matter of whether they have been digitalized or not.

The thing is, the penicillin anecdote was the only evidence she cited as the reason for capitalism being good, which is the main thesis in the video.

What people are criticizing that the video isn’t well argued, and that even the only evidence she gives which favors her main thesis isn’t—and doesn’t even directly support it might I add—isn’t even true.
In person is better because the latent bid for tech workers has gone down, and now they feel comfortable demanding we all come back to the office. It's as simple as that.
> the bands I see today are cheap and unpopular

This is the way. There are a ton of bands you've never heard of that are really good, they just aren't popular because only very few acts are ever popular. You can absolutely see good live music cheap.
> Or just be short in your answers and don’t ask anything back. Most people get the hint quickly.

Hah! As someone who used public transport for most of my life, I've suffered through more than my fair share of narcississtic self-obsessed extroverts who don't get the hint.

And some people's tolerance for tedious conversation can be higher or lower. Mine's pretty low, so I know where the P is coming from.

What's really rude is to waste people's valuable time and peace of mind.
It's a red herring, unless they're saying it's sensitive or unethical to potentially put law professionals out of work.

Is "good AI" now the new "true Scotsman"?
You didn't ask for clarification on which meaning was used or even bother to lookup the term on your own first.

I fail so see how providing you with the correct meaning is "jumping down your throat".
Apparently he is unstinting in collecting royalties on the works in question:

https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/tribe-call...

And he did, after all, play them in concert, though condescendingly (and perhaps realizing that if he did not, future earnings from performances would come to reflect how well-regarded his preferred works are.) In aggregate, his behavior looks to me to be petty and entitled, rather than high-minded.
Sure, and the faster you did that the more you would have made. I don't think AI is equivalent, the emperor has some clothes on here, they're just not quite as nice as he's been led to belive, but the same principle applies. Move fast, break stuff, sell while the cat's still in the bag.
> In the wild, most of the glass food storage containers that I see have silicone lids, not plastic lids.

A quick survey of "glass containers" on amazon and walmart does not corroborate this claim.
A lot of venues already check a id’s at the entrance for alcohol sales, and that doesn’t seem to hold up the line, especially with modern machine readable id’s. No reason why that couldn’t be applied to name checks too.
The initial claim included "below cost", intel argues it didn't sell units below cost. Likely they swamped the investigation team with spreadsheets of all processes and such included in those costs and then I can see it being hard to make progress since you need to go through it to determine if they sold below cost or not.

But the important part is that Intel stopped doing those things after the investigation started so that AMD could compete. If they didn't it would be very easy to prove that they are anti competitive. So even though the fines are late the effects have already been here for a long time with AMD doing well today.
Not really. The demand is what it is, and the supply of tickets is fixed. That sets the price, not the number of different people selling.
I imagine the actual reason is the complete opposite of everything you said except for 'vibes'.

Just cause you can't imagine why anyone would care about being in person doesn't mean the only remaining reason is a greedy powertrip. You're just not being sufficiently imaginative.
Generally there's a promoter in the middle. They sign the artist and then have a deal signed with their ticketing partner. They'll then sign contracts with venues for the given tour. The contracts between promoters and ticketing agencies vary a lot depending on the country but that's how it often works in the states.

The "face value" (base price) will usually be determined between the artist and promoter, the venue will apply a fairly generic fee on top, as will the ticketing provider.

How much of the face value goes to the artist will depend on their leverage in the contract with their promoter. This is usually best improved by the confidence that the venue will sell out, meaning artists with bigger audience and social media presence will usually get the best terms.

I don't have a paper or article I can link to as a source, but I have experience in the industry.
Nothing’s Bulletproof
Only linking this because the tank crew were German soldiers entering into the conflict in Ukraine. This could maybe result in escalations outside of Ukraine. Not sure why this tank was not on a train. If any of the journalists or Youtubers that quietly lurk here investigate this please find out if it may have been a false flag.

Flag is fine, journalists can still see it, thx.

> That rush of new users had even prompted Bluesky to halt new user sign-ups for a time as the website buckled under the influx of traffic.

When you have to close the gates due to not being able to handle the demand, I would consider that missing the boat. Fact is there's still one team in charge of who gets an account, not very distributed of them.

On one hand I don't want to dismiss the teams effort, I can appreciate going slow and doing it right, but as far as I'm concerned the whole twitter genre of social media is a little played out, we're not going to see the enthusiasm or growth that we did 10 years ago, all they can do is siphon users from the other twitter clones.
I wouldn't say it's PNW specific where that's true but in my experience those types of things are great ways to meet people and build social relationships. It could also be through any other sort of recurring activity like friday night magic or a local code meetup etc.

Edit: the downside of this, in my experience as well, is getting pigeon-holed in some activity with others. Especially when something like alcohol is involved
Oh adding a CI pipeline into the server is smart, that probably makes deployments a breeze. I mainly deploy manually with scp, would be awesome to automate that with a CI/CD flow haha

Same here on containers, in theory they seem great but my projects have been small enough where a container feels like more hassle than it's worth. I might need to just take the time to learn Docker properly though
The way we see it is that most people want to be connected and want to be good friends. But they either

a) Lack the social skills or

b) Lack the time management skills

> Perhaps my only criticism would be of their artificial hampering of some of their products, which they do in order to appease certain PC gamers by excluding the gaming market from usual supply/demand effects

Can you elaborate what you mean by this? I thought Nvidia is outpricing their PC gamer customers because of their focus on AI?
I’m curious how they have hampered their products in your opinion.
Shockingly, the "tech community" is full of nerds.
Do they also have (serious) plans to build new matching hospitals and the like, to support those houses?

Hoping they do, as it's required. Just haven't heard any mention of them doing so (yet) is all. :/
I don’t know much about YC but I do know it isn’t a regular working environment. It’s a lot more intense and hands-on, qualities which indeed tend to be better in-person.

It’s also for only 11 weeks. Other companies probably want to be always be intense and hands-on and have the YC atmosphere, but that’s actually a terrible way to manage a company, a recipe for getting everyone to burnout and quit, and even if people stay after awhile the intensity will cool off.

I don’t doubt YC is better in-person, but also that your typical boring company is better remote.
Great topic, really impressive, though the first step is still hard for me.
> none of the ones still in use consider it a prime.

"has no factors other than one and itself", AFAIK, is still used by school teachers (and others) introducing the concept of prime numbers. I agree that that definition is wrong, but that wasn't the point I was making.
Because it's not gaslighting

Confirms there is a known problem and could provide an option to terminate it
Same in Canada. Maybe because all major public transportion infrastructure projects in North America use European and Japanese technologies, emanating from say, three different - yet very convergent - conglomerates?
Saying a household averages a consumption of 1000 watts over the course of a day makes exactly as much sense as saying someone averaged 30mph over the course of a day on a road trip.
Why on earth would you use a microwave emitter for heating rather than some sort of resistive heating wire? The latter is way simpler and is orders of magnitude more compact.
These gigantic valuations for AI startups are only there because the startups aren't choosing to exit yet - big demand, low supply. Whilst acknowledging my lack of a crystal ball, I would imagine that once the few biggest companies have had their fill of acquiring AI startups for billions at a time, the remaining startups won't be so desirable any longer.

YC needs to make sure they actually have a market to sell these startups to before their valuation starts dropping again. Predicting that requires a certain kind of intuition, whereas 'traditional' software startups have a more predictable lifecycle. I'm not the 'hype type' myself - I don't really trust stocks without intrinsic value behind them :)
Would you be open to sharing an invite?
> Also, the idea that energy efficiency should be a top concern basically undermines the whole idea of developing new technology.

I’m sorry but this is such a dumb argument. Of course new research will burn energy - there’s no question about that. To suggest that ML is like any other development, when it’s well documented how much power these algorithms (LLMs for example) use is kind of bad faith.

The argument is not that we should halt technological progress, but in doing so always be considering its impact on the planet and evaluating if it is really worth it or not.
> The way Billy Joel puts it in that quote is like you have some obligation to be more commercial, just because you signed to a big label or because you sold records.

I don't think that's the implication - I think it's more "don't sign with a large label for the extra exposure and income, while also complaining about how you never wanted to make it big because all you care about is the music. You're lucky, just enjoy it and keep doing what you want to do."
Interesting! We haven't thought of it so far but shouldn't be too much of an effort to port to the web, given that we use Flutter.

Could you elaborate the particular reasons as to why you'd prefer a web app? (Would a desktop app be relevant as well?)
I think it goes deeper.

When people become very skilled at programming they have the urge to scratch their own itch, either writing tools to solve software development problems or creating something with a technology that they want to use. They are uninterested in mundane, boring, vertical applications, but that's often where the money is.

The guy in the article did some development tools but some other things too. At the end of the day, imagining a market is no substitute for finding one.

I agree that some security is required, but it's worth noting these guns were caught without the assistance of

Does below cost only apply for selling certain types of 1-off physical goods?

A lot of online apps tend to operate at a loss to gain a large audience and then once they've gained market share they often increase fees or more generally make it more expensive for users. Their business model forces smaller competitors out because a larger funded company can in theory hold out for a longer period of time at a loss.

It's surprising this is ok but selling a piece of hardware at a loss is not ok. What about Costco selling rotisserie chickens at a loss to get people in the store or the idea of a "loss leader"?
Looked into this. Apple chose a sync strategy that will lose users data in certain conditions, so they didn't "bother" users about conflicts too much. They opted not to use much older techniques that would have kept conflicting revisions.

Can't you just talk to someone for the simple heck of it?

I have had a few interesting conversations with strangers on planes. Most recently, I talked to a former government worker from Hawaii. I never saw them again, but I enjoyed just hearing their experiences and views because they were a random person from a completely random walk of life that I would otherwise never encounter as part of my normal weekly routine.
Sure for a bootcamp or intensive project or whatever, in-person can have benefits.
For juniors and mentorship and whatever, sure helps there too.

But the lingering question is...
Why is it that everyone was super cool with hybrid & remote, even past COVID danger, but as soon as FAANG had massive layoffs we went from 2days to 3days to majority back in office at many tech companies?

And the east coast bank/fund/finance tech companies quickly dragged everyone else back to the office as soon as we all stopped quitting for FAANG jobs?

Hard to tell what the cause could possibly be.

Correlation, causation.. who knows!
Ticket marketplaces take fees on every transaction, so incentivizing multiple transactions on a single ticket is in their interest.

Additionally, resale fees tend to be higher, on a percentage basis, and prices tend to be higher on resale tickets for high demand events.

But this does not mean ticket marketplaces are incentivized to sell to resellers initially instead of actual event-goers.

Primary prices and fees are lower because artists and venues demand it. Ticketmaster's continued ability to source tickets to high demand events is more important than marginal revenue from resale on even a large number of those tickets.
Did you read the article? Bluesky has <1 million DAU. Mastodon has 8 million DAU. Threads went from 50 million DAU to just under 10 million DAU. Twitter has 237 million DAU.

"Record usage" for them, yes, but nothing compared to the others. It's not even competitive with Mastodon.
Intel absolutely tried to drown AMD in the 2000s. The fines are warranted.
You can also launch an admin container and type `sudo sheltie` in it to get a root shell on the bottlerocket host OS if you need to debug things.

We've been using Bottlerocket together with its update operator on K8s for about a year now and we are really happy with it as it solves patch management by swapping out an immutable host OS image instead.

You didn't actually give an alternative reason for why FAANGs and banks are doing this. Some also obviously don't hold for YC (real estate losses).
Hopefully you never get to peek behind the scenes of much of the world's running infrastructure.
In practice most pilots use an iPad app for flight planning and navigation. No technical reason why open source hardware/software could be used for that if it had good UX (which is pretty uncommon in the Linux desktop space)
