Yup, TicketMaster/Live Nation is fully vertically integrated. They own venues, they manage artists, they sell merch - and yes they run the ticket platforms. The contracts basically require everything to stay in the family.

Good diet and exercise can lower your risk. They cannot eliminate risk. You can do everything right and still get cancer.

Thus diet and exercise are also not reasonable substitutes for researching better treatments for those who do get cancer.
Have you actually read 1984? Which part of it reminds you of the idea to assign human staff to new automation? (Whether for safety, or social reasons)

It will need to be compatible with any changes made for the standard frontend, it will need servers to run it, the code can't forever keep running on Java 1.2 or PHP 4.2 or whatever, you will need to retain expertise on it all, etc. etc.

Maintaining these things, even without user-visible changes, can actually be quite time-consuming and difficult.

Still looking for a lib that supports fibers... boost::asio is... well, boost, and therefore annoying. It also does not support it out of the box
I'm confused in how this article defines "fiber." At the beginning of the article, fibers are described as a lightweight userspace thread, similar to what is provided in the runtimes of Haskell and Go, and has been recently revived in Java as "virtual threads."

However, later in the article (after a long and apparently irrelevant digression about stack management), they describe Windows API functions that are required for using fibers and seem to suggest that fibers are OS-level, and not application-managed.

Am I missing something?

I'd need to see what the argument is for "Family dog, which can be trained, can communicate its needs, enjoys play, is capable of empathy, and feels emotion isn't generally intelligent/sentient"

IMO - We're building specialized devices on our way to building family pets, then humans, then perhaps something greater than humans.
Does anyone receiving these feel like it's personal enough to be meaningful? I can't help but think that even with some cutesy text, if it wasn't exactly the tone of the person who sent it or it didn't contain some kind of inside joke, it would just come across as a cookie-cutter afterthought. It seems like the Bitmoji of greeting cards, all splash and no depth.

I think the really enlightening factor here is the actual data on numbers of complaints per 100k vehicles sold. Look at those numbers for all the top makes and models in the U.S. Tesla is always at the worst end of that list, however you sort the numbers.

Yet when you transplant those same numbers into China or other countries, the same number of complaints per 100k vehicles puts them at the top of the list -- because everyone else is so much worse.

Tesla is a case study in doing all the things because you have to do something, and this is something, and therefore you have to do this.

Some of the ideas that Tesla has come up with are great, but the execution has been piss poor. And some of their ideas have been truly horrible, like using all their customers as lab rats so that they can gather more data more quickly and trick more people into also becoming more lab rats.

But as bad as Tesla is, I don't see any other way to force the entrenched car companies around the world to make the kind of changes that have to be made for this planet to survive. We have to get off fossil fuels, and if that means that Tesla has to destroy the rest of the industry to do it, then I think maybe that's a case where we need the devil we don't know (as well) to help kill the devil we do know (better).
I try to use KDE every year or so, and I've been doing this since KDE 1.0. It consistently keeps not delivering the experience I want. They have an uncanny ability to keep inserting "jank" everywhere, making the whole experience feel almost good but not quite.

Ah, but it's not good being tied to one of each service; it's just extremely impractical to have parallel infrastructure in some cases. (I've been without plumbed water before because the water service failed locally. It would certainly have been nice to have a competitor available.) The fact that monopolies exist isn't evidence that more monopolies is what we want.

The answer to the rest of your questions is "… yes, isn't this pretty normal?".

Multi-homing your Internet connection is in a completely different category of service because it's so trivial to fail over, but in fact my phone is routinely multi-homed (to a WiFi network and through 5G), and my laptop will fall back to its hotspot, so yes; aren't many people? That redundancy is enough for me not to run my own Internet infrastructure.

I have two parallel medical infrastructures (the NHS and private insurance), which I routinely switch between as appropriate; again, in my social class this is common. I have multiple credit cards, which is the closest I come to PCP, which is again common, and again I routinely switch between them.
PFAS (aka "forever chemicals") are present in everything including drinking water and breast milk so yes, you are eating PFAS.
Ken is a good friend in the industry and always has the best interest of email security at heart. This may have been an architectural oversight but they are not wrong that SPF is surely a cause for concern, as is misconfigured DNS based trust and recertifications via arc (which was supposed to solve a problem for forwarding scenarios).

The centralization of email services to a handful of providers basically has led to multihoming of millions of domains that open SPF auth to the same handful. Any integrations by them or changes to existing stack can cause issues to pop up, because delegation of sending rights isn't strictly auth controlled. The same also happens with dkim delegation to saas providers who share backend keys across other customers of theirs and if their API is open to experiment (or an account gets popped) then the customer domains are possibly at risk.

Email is hard to do right. No auth no entry should be the default. But majority of domain owners aren't very good at figuring out how to secure things, or have business/product interests that are a priority, specially when delegated and authorized to third party senders on their behalf.

There was some implied context in my comment given the HN audience.

Gmails spam filters are quite bad, but even worse than that is staggering amount of important emails they classify as spam. So gmails spam filter is only decent if you don't care about email. And if you don't care about email, sure, you can find reasons to tolerate gmail.

Why you'd do that, well, that is another question.

Search is also particularly bad with gmail.
Agreed. I think the two of us can talk all day about the necessity of it becoming a “large and complex field”. I accept I am an old miser about it, but it is indeed the reality.
I'm the opposite.

I'm convinced that automated trains are the way to go.

I don't think diet and exercise are the full story. My initial comment says diet and lifestyle, not diet and exercise.

I'm trying to step away from this discussion. It is kind of off topic and I don't think it's productive.
It might be a factor, but I don't think that's the main reason. If you're an outdoorsy type, you have that immediate common ground with fellow campers, and have a whole host of starter questions pertaining to that interest that will usually kickstart an entire conversation. Same with the marina-goers: boats are an interest that you can start a convo with. Makes it easy.
If all the neurons of a brain would be distributed uniformly in the entire body, keeping the same connectivity, there would be no difference in the behavioral abilities of any animal (except the reaction speed), even if it would not have any recognizable brain.

There are two reasons why all animals with a great number of neurons concentrate them into ganglia, and eventually into a single big brain.

The first is that when moving most of the neurons close together the total length of the interconnections between them becomes much smaller, so a much less quantity of materials is needed to build them.

The second is that the speed of signal transmission on the interconnections between the neurons is quite low, so when the interconnections become shorter, i.e. the nervous system becomes more concentrated, the propagation times decrease and the speed of reaction of the animal increases.

The very low speed of signal transmission is why all animals have the main brain in the head, close to the most important sensors.

For a humanoid robot, the speed of light for signal transmission makes irrelevant where the brain is located. Instead of having the brain in the head, a better position is in the chest, where it can be better protected. So what is seen in many SciFi movies, where humans completely disable some killer robots by cutting or shooting their head, would be unlikely to work against a correctly designed robot.
Apparently it's good for a comment on HN.

That said, I'm pretty sure it was just an introvert/extrovert clash. She couldn't imagine not chatting over coffee. Whereas I have a job working with people (teaching), which I like, but it means outside the job I am even more introverted...

Yes, I was a bit confused about this too. Bash (1989) itself is a modern Linux tool. The Unix classic (released between 1973 and 1985 according to the author) would be sh (1979) or perhaps ksh (1983).
From what I've been told by people who know way more about it than I do, it is complete. One thing to consider is that official published precedential caselaw is from the appellate level up. From what I understand, lower court cases aren't published, though I believe they can be accessed through PACER... But I have no real legal research expertise. The first part of the project entailed a lengthy process involving several decades-experienced legal librarians, lawyers, and archivists mapping out exactly what reporters exist and which ones were "official" (considered authoratative by the courts) and when. Apparently nobody had done it before— well, nobody that made their data available, anyway. HLSL is a library of last resort for law and all but a tiny fraction of the books we scanned are in their collection.

I understand the benefit of this solution, but it seems to me that this will enable more of the problem. Now we have AI to figure this out, so let’s go wild on duck taping more policies. Let’s even add contradictions and it will just give you an answer when you ask for it. Seems they’re afraid of making the tough call of simplifying it.
Traditional ethics? Is there some modern non-traditional ethics these days as well?
power grids and similar have gauges that can show phase offset between 2 supplies, in the old days they would have to flick the switch once it was exactly pointing to zero offset, but would assume modern equipment can do it automatically.

Or you can just use basic HTML with a custom stylesheet that makes it look more 21st century and you have a lightning-fast, sleek experience.
Diets don’t fail, people fail to follow diets. Which is probably fine in the long run, because they’re always there for people who want them. There’s probably never going to be a wonder drug for obesity though. But Anavar or Trenbolone would work better than Semaglutide, and the side effects likely aren’t that much worse (all of those options are still bad ideas).
The main benefit (indeed the purpose) of gron is that the output is much easier to manipulate into what you need using basic gnu utils, instead of trying to shoehorn it into jq's syntax.

When the system is heavily stacked against you, such that you cannot change it meaningfully through legal means, what other options are there? If you want to totally reform the entire government, you can start a rebellion.

A military may be more merciful if it's just a small insurrection, but if the government is in real danger, a military has far, far more power than needed to put down any rebellion. So what, do you expect the citizens to storm the Bastille? The only reason any uprisings are successful is because the military allows them to be.

Sure, we can absolutely make smaller changes with votes, but when it comes down to it, if you have the support of the military, you have all the power. And because of that, citizens have relatively little power.

I'm not advocating for an insurrection against any government, but "that is on you to change" is nonsense.
If you learn from others you save yourself a lot of time. Imagine if you had to invent all of mathematics yourself. I think learning from your own experience is best but there is just not enough time to always do it.

It was easy to see there was something wrong. I've been trying to find a similar machine and couldn't find one, the closest was an asus zephyrus, but I didn't really wanted to pay for an nvidia discrete GPU just to disable to due to shitty drivers, nor wanted its plastic case.

I ended up just replacing the battery on my old laptop in the meantime. TBH the only reason to upgrade would be the screen

> Whatever is there that has a higher profit-per-target is already being done.

This is a good point. The sort of activity that could easily afford to pay to continue to access Twitter on day one of a policy change is presently underway. A large chunk of spammers would simply have to spend a small fraction of their current profits to maintain their profitable business without having to make much meaningful change to their business models.

For this reason, charging for Twitter will shut them down. The high profits and relatively low cost will cause them to pack up shop and go legitimate.
The Cure did this as well. They also kept the prices very affordable.

What I always love about “the rewrite” is the sheer optimism of the people involved - “we’ll be done in six months, and the new system will be a thing if wonder”. Fast forward to several years later. The original proponents will have moved on leaving behind the accumulated bodges and shortcuts from the increasingly desperate efforts to try and get something live… and then the cycle repeats.

There are ways to do this properly, but no one wants to put the effort into understanding the existing code base and the reason for why it is the shape it is. Everyone is happy with the “who wrote this crap - we can’t work on it” line.
> Free service

Nothing is free. You just pay differently.

> Perfect deliverability

I have never lost an e-mail with my non-GMail accounts. GMail is not the only reliable service out there.

> never having to spell the part after "@"

Sad to think that this would be the reason for GMail's monopoly, but well...

> great spam filters

I don't get much spam with alternative services, not sure if there is a formal comparison somewhere?

> not having to "migrate" your address and emails anywhere else

And not being able to, ever. And once you get out of free space because for some reason your smartphone automatically syncs with Google Drive and you don't know how to remove stuff you don't need (and you certainly don't want to lose that picture you didn't know existed), then you can start paying 2$ a month to get more space and keep your peace of mind.

No really, the one reason I see for GMail is that it is well known (no need to think about what server you want) and it is free. The rest is basically lock-in.
This is an appropriate deployment for one L4 load balance with some machines, or for one machine.
> On June 21 or so every year, Earth’s North Pole reaches its greatest tilt toward the sun. When that happens, the sun’s path across the sky takes it the highest above the horizon all year, making for the longest days of the year and giving the sun maximal time to heat the ground. We associate this time of year with warmth and sunshine.

The duration of daylight can't be the complete explanation for why summers are warmer because otherwise the North Pole and Scandinavia, having super long days, should be hot during summer. He forgot to mention that the angle of the suns rays, depending on where you are, is also a factor for the warmth, right?

Now that I'm thinking about it, which is really the bigger factor in having a warmer climate: your angle to the sun (your latitude) or the duration of the day? (I realize that they are connected, but I'm trying to imagine separating them.)
My alternative solution is just to quit lol.
Rewriting is so attractive.

If the code has aged and is suffering from many code smells and anti-patterns, a rewrite becomes even more attractive.

"Why should I spend all this time adding a simple feature to this crappy code??"

But writing code is the easy part.

Architecting a correct solution that meets today's business needs and can be built upon, as well as walking the data, users, and business workflows over to the new system, are the hard part.

I've never seen it go smoothly. I want to see it happen, because I'm an optimist, but so far it's not gone well.
How much "view of greed" has fallen on airline companies for fluctuating the price of their seats based on demand?

Some cycling water bottles already do that kind of thing:

> The Purist WaterGate Bottle features an amorphous silicon dioxide coating that's infused into the inner-wall of the bottle. Essentially, this forms a glass-like finish that provides a totally natural, and completely inert, solution to the problem of your drinks staining the bottle or leaving behind any residual aftertaste. This infusion also shields your fresh water from tasting like plastic on very hot days, making it akin to drinking straight from a sparkling clean glass.

It's not perfect in practice though (I find that the bottles can still absorb flavors of sports drinks, especially if you forget to wash them immediately after a ride). But they definitely don't have the plastic taste and smell of other bottles.
Local-first web apps are (hopefully) the next frontier for web apps.

One of the technologies that enable this are CRDT's (Conflict-free data types) which apparently was "formally defined in 2011" according to Wikipedia.
