The tax is typically on fuel, which employees pay for. In theory this ought to filter through to employers who may well end up having to pay more for in-office employees to cover the extra costs. Whether that plays out in practice I'm not sure.
There is also the plaid api to gnucash [1], which should work with a lot more banks. Personally, I have not used any of these. My banks allow csv downloads, which works well enough for me. I wouldn't give my data to a 3rd party in any case.

Gotcha, totally understand. But I will say that ideas matter far less than the ability to deliver quickly and with high quality. IRC technically has nearly all of the same features as Slack and yet...

So far you're far ahead of the competition in multiple of the ways that matter most. I've tried all of the competition and I don't want any of it on my computer.

The fact that it is dead simple to install, migrate, and use also gives you a huge leg up when we consider adopting it for our company. I absolutely don't want to spin up a support channel to help people migrate to or troubleshoot podman or rancher.

> Apple has also shown they're a bad partner for game companies (nuking 32-bit support; crummy OpenGL support; no Vulkan support; shaky record on OS updates breaking stuff). My experience is there's generally a lot of bad feelings and skepticism about Apple and macOS in the gaming industry due to that record.

In your opinion, what steps should Apple take, and in what order, to make Mac a compelling, long-term platform for third-party game developers? They're certainly showing some interest in making games happen (GPT, raytracing), but most of the efforts so far seem to be pre-aligned in their favour (Metal, Apple Arcade).
Yes. They sell items via loot boxes where you don't know what you're buying until you've already opened it. It's gambling. Distributing purchases this way is well known to increase spending and hurt people. It's why they do it.

Ask HN: Why everybody speaks only about Tailwind, what happened to Bootstrap?
I tried Tailwind, made a simple project with it and I liked.

Recently had the chance to work on a Bootstrap 5 project and I think is really good too.

I see the every single dev speak about Tailwind like if it's the only good framework and Bootstrap is not good any longer.

Why this?
Struggling with this today, and numerous other days. It's so bad. Stop trying to build an operating system out of YAML. I'll always use and recommend Gitlab from now on.

Maybe: if you have a postgres (no "t") service provider and you can't install postgrest on it, then you can now possibly run it in the browser.

The people crossing with those guns are doing it legally. I've talked with ex security detail for one politician here and he explained, you can just take apart the gun and bring it piecemeal across the border without question. In my mind the solution is controlling the purchase of guns.
Eh, I mean in this situation it's pretty cut and dry that Kia & Hyundai is doing something different as opposed to the police. I doubt close to 1/3 of all the vehicles in Milwaukee are KH but they make up 2/3 of the thefts. If the police are a contributing factor you'd expect it to increase evenly across brands.

But "Greater Police Presence" can deter crime depending on what police do. The presence of police cars on highways does slow down drivers. If you want a ton of traffic, I mean cars following the speed limit, then a "Greater Police Presence" archives that (until drivers recognize that cops won't pull them over until they're going +20).

I really doubt organized crime will steal powertools from home depot while a cop is in the same asile. Of course they may just go to the lowes down the street. GPP has both a scalability issue but also an enforcement issue; you can commit many crimes in the presence of a cop and they will do nothing.
> Distinguishing between a simple bug and a vulnerability requires contextual knowledge and expert judgement that simply cannot be built into bureaucratic organisations like MITRE.

Why can’t it? MITRE runs FFRDCs. Having worked for an FFRDC (although in electrical engineering, not computer security), if you were to tell me that engineers in FFRDCs or UARCs in my domain simply cannot utilize contextual knowledge or expert judgment (or that their knowledge and judgment would be completely overridden by management such that it appears they can’t) then I would wonder if you ever interacted with that kind of organization.

Is computer security somehow different to e.g. radar or comms systems engineering?
The US does not have the capacity to make vast amounts of ammunition that the US military does not use. It isn’t a Soviet-style military that relies on shear volume of dumb ordnance to win battles. The US does have vast stocks and reserves of the equipment it does use. For ammunition it does use, the US has large overages that they can give to other countries when the need arises that greatly exceed what they have a use for. A lot of the equipment that the US sent Ukraine was rescued from the scrapyard and would not be used by the US in any case.

The US military heavily relies on quick, precision fires in a way few militaries do as a matter of doctrine. Quantity matters much less than quality in these cases. Though the US has absolute numerical superiority for a lot of land war systems (e.g. the US has ~8000 Abrams tanks), half of which are in storage because they don’t have a use for that many. Ammunition for these systems is similarly in cold storage.
I can’t see any valid reason not to use Postgres at the back end, unless you are in some sort of environment such as embedded or cloudflare workers that requires it. Or if you need a graph database there are better choices than Postgres.

Postgres is good on multi core, incredibly feature rich, multi user, supported by everything, lightweight and has all the tools for production workload and management. All stuff that is important.

Most important difference to me being SQLite I understand lacks flexibility in modifying table structures.
There are plenty of attractions outside of Disney or Universal. I'd guess no more than 10% of rented cars have zero activity.

Regardless... these are families who live in South Florida. Cost of driving is a tank of gas each way. Can drive right up to the hotel's front door, no Uber. Can visit both Disney and Universal. Mom or Dad can easily go to convention while kids go to parks, etc.

It's a very rare confluence when paying more and giving up the freedom of a car makes much sense.

I recently wrote a production system that uses SQLite as the main backend. SQLite is in memory in this case and its entire state gets rebuilt from Kafka on start. The DB receives about 2 updates a second, wrapped with rest api aiohttp and odata filters. It has been able to handle close to 9k requests/second ands it’s a primary system in a financial institution. So yes SQLite is fully capable prod db.
To confirm your fear, you can't use the updated_at timestamp as a proxy for commit order. The commits happen in a different order, and can be arbitrarily far apart, like hours or days depending on how long your transactions can last.

Steam Input and Steam Play both work fine with games bought elsewhere, you just have to add them as non-Steam games to your library.

Though even if they didn't, I can't see how these features being exclusive to Steam "punishes" users for buying games elsewhere. The most probable alternative scenario is that these features wouldn't exist at all.

The biggest alternative to Steam Workshop is Nexus Mods, which is ironically far less friendly to mod developers.
The context switch time is much smaller, so yes, better performance.
My number one complaint is that they still don't have managed ARM runners. Considering how overpriced runners are (compared to cloud instances), I'm sure they would make a ton of money here.

My choices here are either to use a different CI solution (but I quite like Actions, and they are better integrated in the Github UI than alternatives), or to use custom self-hosted autoscaling runners (but there doesn't appear to be a good solution available at the moment, and I definitely don't want to managed infra for CI.)

To me the biggest problem with GPL is compatibility. The majority of coding effort is commercial and will be for the foreseeable future. If the frameworks are GPL then the commercial interfaces will likely be incompatible with free software. Thankfully they are mostly BSD so commercial software works on free software systems and vice versa.

For user-facing software, GPL is fine, but fewer people actually want to write that.
1. I'm not saying he doesn't still have control over governance at Amazon. As executive chair he most certainly does. Operational decision like these are not subject to the board of directors though. He also couldn't "easily" unilaterally fire Jassy. With all the clout he likely still has if he told the board they should vote to fire Jassy over the decision to run ads on PV they would tell him to get bent.

2. You're literally describing a minority stake here.

3. Last data point I saw was around 3% of internet traffic running through AWS. Also I'd say there's quite a large difference between the internet as an entity and the cloud infra a tiny part of it is run on.

4. Most people I know would prefer to get Prime for free but that's never gonna happen either. I'd wager that at this point the only cash flow positive streaming platform out there is Netflix which is simply not sustainable. So it's either cancel the product eventually, raise prices, or introduce ads. The vast majority of people would opt to go with the ads.

well of course not. These aren't product that directly make money. Maybe a small chinese startup can do it, but they would still prefer to ship with Windows.

I only really played Portal so I have no real fond memories of TF/CS/HL. But I'm just saying that Valve definitely has the money to invest in games if they really wanted to.
One major weirdness with ipv6 is that it occasionally works with ipv4 and it's unclear why.

Example: we run a bunch of endpoints on ipv4, but get ipv6 IPs in our logs. How? Are there 6-to-4 translators out there at ISP edges?

Unknowns in networking are bad.
Why would you do that when it's better to do the opposite? Given a model quantize it and compile it to direct code objects that do the same thing much much much faster?

The generality of the approach [NNs] implies that they are effectively a union of all programs that may be represented, and as such there needs to be the capacity for that, this capacity is in size, which makes them wasteful for exact solutions.

it is fairly trivial to create FFNNs that behave as decision trees using just relus if you can encode your problem as a continuous problem with a finite set of inputs. Then you can very well say that this decision tree is, well, a program, and there you have it.

The actual problem is the encoding, which is why NNs are so powerful, that is, they learn the encodings themselves through grad descent and variants.
What separate DB server? I was talking about installing the RDBMS on localhost, right inside the server where your application runs. No other EC2 instance, no extra charges. Preferably connect to it over a Unix domain socket instead of TCP. That's the only way to compare SQLite performance with an RDBMS in an apples-to-apples way.

The point about operational overhead makes sense, though, and IMO it's the only point in this unnecessarily long article that's actually worth considering. I do have a couple of other apps running on SQLite, so I appreciate the simplicity.
Show HN: I made a VPN on GitHub Actions
Yep.

I work a federal entity tied to DoE and that's the biggest workstream cut out for us. 90% of our environment is either dual stacked or IPv6 native. We would love to kick IPv4 out under us and go full IPv6. Problem is that the vendors who are largely private don't have the same mandate so there's varying degree of "we support IPv6" which makes planning bit more difficult (especially at the discovery stage).
This is much more in-depth and interisting than the sweary title might lead you to believe.

The bit about ventilators in particular is tragic.

We offer a demo Postgres instance for getting up and running. You can move the sync to your db when you're ready for production. Therefore, should be compatible with extensions like `pg_graphql` (can't think of customers using that extension, but we have quite a few using Hasura).

Yeah, it's an American thing mostly, I think (it originates from Quicken). I know that Germany used to have another standard, HBCI (which is now FinTS?) and I'm not sure what other countries do.

OFX is a huge PITA to implement, I've tried it and realized I would want to get paid to put up with it :) I'll try the CSV import, if it works then there's no need to overcomplicate stuff.

The Demo looks really good by the way, and props for actually having one!

Soft paywalls aren't, like many nouns that need an introducing qualifier (think homeopathic medicine for the most common example).

More specifically, a soft paywall isn't a starving artist trying to get their daily bread from valuable content (If they were I'd be biased to support them, because I'm among the smaller crowd around here that rather likes IP law and procing things, and kind of enjoy poking the gibs me dat for free beehive. I even probably support, horror of horrors, what I heard was Musk hard-paywalling twitter to make it profitable, and he's neither starving nor an artist), it's a malicious trick to hijack when you're trying to find free information on a subject by bait-and-switching a, say, promising quoted section from the middle of the article on a search result. It's like a digital used car salesman who promised a great deal or free benefit in an ad but is all out of non-full-price inventory once you drive all the way out to the lot.

Until these sorts of sites stop shipping their whole catalog to be indexed as available while hiding behind ever-more-sophisticated ui barriers (or browser drm soon, maybe?) and firmly take an honest and upfront stance of either freely available to read or benefiting from paying customers I think the right stance is that silver beats gold; You only survive if you do unto others as they do unto you, so for as long as they're putting out bait we should take the worm and skip the hook: https://archive.ph/X3gHI
