Why? What's the (supposed) fear?

Disclaimer: I have never worked for Amazon but I can add some input from the assorted medium to large companies I have been employed with. I won't mention any names. This is for someone I know reads my comments wink wink

I am not justifying it, just adding some of the bits I experienced. There are many security devices that do not have the same capabilities on IPv6 as IPv4 yet. Some enterprise IoT devices only support IPv4. Adding to this some network engineers don't want to step outside of their comfort zone and tooling/scripts to generate configurations automagically do not yet support IPv6. As the company grows they hire less Sr. Network Engineers and some of the new people depend on but do not understand the automation. e.g. someone wrote some API and they retired or changed companies. Some tooling may remain stagnant for some time. It's also a heavy lift to retrofit some enterprise environments for smaller changes so people fear the outages they will induce implementing IPv6. In some companies it is a major change just to migrate customers to a new load balancer endpoint. There may also be hundreds of undocumented things due to employee churn and lack of change control running that when broken will cause extended outages. And then there is internal politics and finger pointing...

Again, not justifying it, rather I think there are too many moving bits and complexity that people have added over the decades and they are paralyzed by fear and risking the loss of their paycheck. And then there is the embarrassment that comes from having to acknowledge that nobody knows the current state of an environment and that embarrassment can go all the way up the organizational chain.

That is based on my experience of being brought into companies with the speicifc task of, "Hey, make this simpler, reduce outages." It's rarely strictly a technical challenge but rather having to navigate politics, personality types and individual sub-org leaders that have had independent control of their environment for a long time. The more I think about it this could be a topic in and of itself how companies induce self inflicted bloat as they grow.
I remember using Steam for the games library and using Xfire for the ingame chat features. At some point steam because the only survivor there.
I’ve friends say this but I haven’t figured out how to make it work. It takes so much time to sort and filter and there’s no way to get a proper “feed” without constantly scrolling through crap that’s injected.

I asked a friend to show me and he walked me through their workflow and it boiled down to “spend hours on twitter everyday and some decent percent is manually filtering.”

HN has an easy interface -front page. I can hide things I’ve read and I don’t see them again, or I can leave them to read later. And comments are threaded. Twitter doesn’t seem to have these things.
I'd like an invite too! Email is on my profile page.
You can look up the royal grading the UK uses for classical pieces and use that.

A single difficulty score is a bit difficult (hah) as a piece will have many technical dimensions to it, and ideally you're comfortable with most of it but a few dimensions push you out of your comfort zone.

I think these standard grade scores attempt to give some kind of loose ordering to when you might want to tackle the piece.

> Everyone from Canonical, to Nintendo, to Activision/Blizzard should be worried about Valve

Valve have got their shit together regarding technical stuff, but not regarding creative stuff. Nintendo will be fine.
I mean, "content is king" is the exact opposite level of respect for the material in the mindset the author was talking about, where it doesn't matter what it contains, it's all just "content" to the provider as well as the user.
> fast and cheap online payments

but proof of work / crypto isn't fast, and nothing makes it particularly cheap.

If we are talking fast and cheap online payments, micropayments instead of subscriptions, let's go. Too much of crypto is a solution looking for a problem (and finding ones that don't fit).

Do not have very positive experience with influxdb, but the strange for me that clickhouse was not even mentioned in the article
And they were pretty upfront about that when they started their Linux work.

That said I'd bet they're pretty happy with that decision, I don't know that Linux has made them any money yet but Microsoft has definitely continued to shenanig

I think it depends on the use. The kind of AI you're suggesting wouldn't need to ingest the entirety of every book and movie you've seen, it would just need to store a summary and a location for the original file.

It's legal for me to make digital copies of copyrighted works I own so long as they're not redistributed. If I have a local AI maintaining my personal data for reasons other than generating competing works, that shouldn't involve copyright at all.
No, I don't expect them to do what's good for humanity without being forced. The answer isn't blame the rich, it's force the rich.
You missed a few chapters here mate, Twitter doesn't exist anymore :0

The tech skill requirements are fairly low if someone hosts a homeserver everyone joins, or everyone joins a public.
Good luck administering IPv6 networks, they are so much easier to understand.
They've caught a TON of criticism for Counterstrike cases, which is where they make an absolute crapload of money. I don't think it's a big deal, but others do.
Crazy to read his announcement all those years ago, and yet, here we are. Linus is still spearheading the project diligently (which is also crazy to me), and now it's the backbone OS of the internet. Almost every server room of almost every large corporation is comprised mainly of servers running Linux (or a custom internal derivative).
This!

Making >> Not Making, always.

You make, you learn, perhaps one day you will make something better, perhaps not — but at least you've been building something. Ignore the armchair critics, criticizing is so much easier than building.

I wrote about this a few months ago, right before OpenAI released ther Plugin feature: https://faingezicht.com/articles/2023/03/02/federated-langua...

TLDR, the essay explores how LLM could evolve into front-end routers that connect users with specialized tools, leading to a future where federated models determine the best-suited system to answer specific queries. Not too different from today's federated search approaches.
Would love an invite also, if still available :-)
I think it has potential! However to me the piano is too small and hard to see.

Check the Flowkey app for reference, their piano representation is more sophisticated, but note that it takes half the screen (landscape mode) and there is no wasted space on the ending left and write.

Either way, cool project!

Scholz is a meme.
If Jeff Bezos said "I've got enough", perhaps Prime Video wouldn't exist, which would be a net loss to their employees and their consumers who pay for that. It would also mean that Netflix and Disney would very likely be charging more, due to less competition.

Now, if you meant he should just be running this kind of stuff pro bono, consider that Prime Video cost about $16 billion USD per year just for content last year. Even if he puts all his wealth into it, Prime Video would last less than 10 years as a free service before it had to shut down.

I think we should tax the hell out of billionaires by the way, but that's an unrelated issue.
Thank you for your response. I have previously dealt with IPC for a different project and it was painful indeed.

But I found out that there is this new Preload module in electron that lets you use Node.js very easily via normal export and import. I'm using a popular starter template and it works great so far.
Honestly, this is the wrong question, but I understand the intent. What you really should be asking is "Where is the online community for your hobby/interest?"

The thing with HN, is it works for the startup/hacker/tech community, and that community has evolved here over time. If you want a link/topic sharing site for other interests, the answer is almost always going to be a subreddit.

But if what you really want is to be immersed in a community, those communities will be in weird corners that you have to discover. The reason for this is that a community almost always wants to be semi-private: discoverable by others that share the same interest, but just far enough out of the public eye to not get bombarded with bots/trolls/obnoxious people

Some examples I know of:

- Voron (3d printer)? You want to be on their discord
- BigGreenEgg (kamado smoker)? eggheadforum.com
- MMA? sherdog
- Electronics/Robotics diy style hacky projects? hackaday and go to the comment secion

The cool part about finding these true pockets of a community, is you can learn a ton about what truly makes them tick. What do they get excited about, what do they have an irrational hatred for, etc. If you've ever asked yourself "how do I market my app/website/saas", it's almost certainly because you haven't yet encountered where that niche community resides, and are falling back to more generic strategies. Find the community, and they'll tell you what they want in spades
Hey ! I see Tailscale Funnels as maybe a good replacement for Ngrok, but not for Cloudflare Tunnels.

Your Funnels are in Beta, MUST use your tailnet’s domain name, have bandwitdh limits, no failover and no load balancing. If my website goes down, I close shop. Cloudflare Tunnels are just way more mature for production loads. CF Tunnels technically don't have load balancing, but if you set multiple Tunnels with the same ID, you get some sort of load balancing AND failovers if a tunnel goes down. And after that, they have a paid Load Balancer option.

Even for internal admin portals, the mention that "Traffic over Funnel is subject to bandwidth limits." with absolutely no defined numbers is just a turn off. If you added a number to that, like a limit of MBPS or GB/Month of transfer, it would be something I can bring to my colleagues, something we can discuss and weight on. For now, with no number, it's just a threat.

Everything else about Tailscale is chefskiss tho ;)

A lot of them are probably the same companies. Brands seen online such as xkgjd and hjafskdj are not meant to last.
> That was a shift that happened.

You could say this about anything. When did loads of people start saying "shift" instead of "change"? Or "space" instead of "garden" or "room" or "atrium"? Saying something changed doesn't give it much significance.

cheers!
What's TAO?
It's less good when the state machine traversal is only known at run time. Necessarily you can only capture the errors at run time, so you get less benefit. You can wrap the states in an enum, but then the enum needs to implement the interface of every state. In that pattern though, you do get the benefit that the enum level dispatcher has to properly obey the types' interfaces, so you get lots of confidence that the runtime errors will be correct (or at least, an error will happen if the state is called incorrectly).

Still, it's a great pattern that I use as often as I can!

I wonder who's stealing the bikes? Maybe that's worth looking into, see if there are any patterns?
Its worth complaining about to hold back the stream of shit for a while.

But you are right eventually ads will get everywhere and even if you are willing to pay more it just means you are making enough that they can charge you even more.

The solution is to abandon any platform you can where you can't block ads.
How to cope with job search stress
So what kind of good outcome you propose? If I correctly understand what you are talking about:
- demand open source projects to fix all CVEs within short fixed time AND all projects integrate all upstream and dependency changes almost immedeately (or else, maintain array of older versions that are still used by someone)
- demand proprietary software vendors to avoid using any open source project that does not provide the above, and in a short, fixed time switch from using any such dependency that has ceased providing these guarantees (e.g. maintainer quit) to another one that does.

which still leaves you with the risk of breaking stuff on upgrade, because now your product is basically baby debian sid, because you must pull newest versions all the time, and cannot stay on a stable version (that will not get patches)
Are there really any? HN has the quality it does thanks to dang's tireless efforts, and I don't know of any other site with similar moderation.
Logos on shoes are useful. Here's how I used to buy shoes:

1. Go to a Payless ShoeSource store.

2. Find the sneaker (AKA trainers, tennis shoes, kicks, takkies, sportex, and many other names depending on where you are in the world) aisle.

3. Look at the logo on the shoes I'm wearing.

4. If they have the same shoes in my size, and I don't see any others that are noticeably less expensive, buy those shoes again.

5. If they no longer have the same shoes or there are shoes that are noticeably less expensive, try on shoes to find out what they have that is comfortable and ergonomic. Then pick a pair and buy them.

I say "used to" because after 40 years of buying shoes that way Payless closed. When the announced they were going to close I went to the two local Payless stores and bought all the comfortable ergonomic sneakers in my size. I have not yet settled on a new shoe buying strategy.
I think you've turned this into some sort of word game and no, your examples still don't work. We can call something a developing country because we know what a developed country looks like. We cannot call something a late capitalist country because we do not know what a post-capitalist country looks like.

My complaint was merely that the term "late capitalism" implies that we are in a late stage of a process, that it will be surpassed soon, and that something new will come after. That's how the term is used, in the article posted and in general.

Direction is not implied. It's a description of state of capitalism under domination of multinational corporations, consumerism, increasing commodification of life (seems to be the part author had in mind), growing inequality. And it was described in 1902.

The term is not used to refer to the entire 20th century. It's used to refer to a more recent era.
Be careful admitting this in public: you are going to get comments from people telling you that it is impossible to learn how to play piano on a cheap keyboard because it doesn't have the same feel as a real piano, and lacks pedals. Fortunately, they are wrong up to a certain point. There is a difference playing the two, to be sure, but it's like saying you can't learn to drive in a car with an automatic transmission.
Crypto was a great bubble for GPU companies. Now “A.I.” is pushing hardware. Both products also sell themselves as a way to free users from centralized government and private monopolies.

This is really awesome, congrats on shipping. If you don't mind me asking, what do sales look like on average for an app like this? I'm hoping to someday make a "music education app", but I'm skeptical if people would pay for it. Thank you!

Which means it is time for the alternative to rise again - piracy.
> “Nuclear reactor design has evolved, but key additional safety features have not been included at Barakah, with the chief executive of Areva, the French nuclear cooperation, comparing the Barakah reactor design to, quote, ‘a car without airbags and seatbelts,’” he said. “So the Barakah reactor design may prove inadequate defence against significant radiation release under what’s known as ‘fault conditions’; in other words, an accidental or deliberate airplane crash or military attack.

> “And what’s particularly worrying is the lack of a core catcher, which in the event of a failure of the emergency reactor core systems, would retain the nuclear fuel once it breached the reactor pressure vessel. On top of that, concrete cracking in all four reactor containment buildings hasn’t helped, nor has installation of faulty pilot-operated safety relief valves.”

The Expanse, The Boys and New Bandits are three original series with very different styles that I found entertaining.
You've set the bar pretty high if Burning Down the House is rather pedestrian. I can't think of another funk album that is stronger than this all the way through.
> copyright owners can dictate how their work is used (with some exceptions), and if that use hurts the copyright owner, the owner should have the right to forbid it.

Consider a poet who publishes poetry in some unique meter, or has some other unique stylistic structure for which they are well known... should they be allowed to sell copies of their poems that can be used for reading only, but prevents usage of those stylistic devices by other authors?

I'm going to assume that we agree the answer is "no, the author should not be able to prevent those uses" at least for human consumers of their works. This is how art has always developed... even though that use "hurts the copyright owner" by diluting the market for works with that style, the owner does NOT have the right to forbid it.

Now, let's say that same poet drew a lot of inspiration from a bunch of out-of-copyright poets. Let's also say that I train an AI model on the poet's inspirations, but NOT on the poet's work directly. Then I ask the AI to write a poem in the style of the poet's inspirations, and to include the unique stylistic device for which that poet is famous. In your world, is this OK?

I have been a gamer my entire life and about three years ago I became a full-time digital nomad. I preordered the Steam Deck the moment the window opened and received mine in the first couple of batches. It has been absolutely phenomenal. It is not perfect and not everything runs great, but _almost_ everything I want it to run works and _almost_ everything I play on it runs pretty well. I have even been playing BG3 on it. When i do finally settle back down and build a new gaming rig it will run Linux.

I agree completely. FWIW, this sentiment is why we're seeing a lot of cloud "platforms" crop up that do exactly what you're talking about. Rather than get mired in the component-zoo of virtualized datacenter (read: pretend) networking, just abstract all of it away.

I'm very glad that my value scale doesnt concern itself with the difference between $3 and $10, I can't imagine going through day to day like that with that level of granularity. That is literally less than the price of a single pizza. A single potato at the store is probably $3

EDIT: I just signed up for Kagi. Youre out of your mind if this isnt worth $10, holy crap this is awesome. The amount of configurations and settings is out of this world. Unless you use google 5 times per month this far exceeds its cost.

I have heard that in the US people will exclude you from group chats if you are on Android because they can only manage iMessage.

I have known Americans who would mock Android users as being "poor", because they don't want to use an iPhone.

Not really. That's not what/how MoE models work. It's not an ensemble.
You seem confused. A road can be used by people who aren't sending their location to Google.

I would also be surprised if every single road in the world has seen usage in the past decade. I'm sure there's a whole bunch of roads that just aren't ever used any more. Doesn't mean they won't be useful in the future. Doesn't mean they should be removed from maps.

Implementing your suggested algorithm would probably make the map less accurate, not more accurate.

As mentioned, this group is composed of techies who have an innate distrust of proprietary platforms, and the Reddit debacle (following so close on the heels of Twitter's ongoing debacles) was enough to tip the scales against continuing to operate the Discord. For groups of non-techies who care about convenience over all else, sadly I just think you're going to have to wait (or contribute yourself!) until Element/Matrix adds more UX polish.

That said, one thing that did help a lot was having the server host a default client. Anyone can still connect to the server using any client they want, but now they can also go to the server's URL and get a good client without any hassle. We chose Cinny as the default client because it's solid and extremely familiar to any Discord users.
You mean how do I find cinemas that are local to me? (Or streaming services, I guess). Again, pull. Search engines. Various categories of information broker.

What I'm pushing back against is the idea that advertising is necessary for society to function. I'm defining advertising in the broadest sense I can for the purposes of the thought experiment - information that you pay to have put in front of people. It can be entirely replaced by information that I pay to access.

It always will exist of course, because the incentives of a seller aren't aligned with mine, but it isn't necessary.

Here is a similar Thin-Crust Open Core model https://reactflow.dev/blog/asking-for-money-for-open-source/. But I hear CH and understand their move. I think OSS Sponsorship has failed; it does not generate enough money to pay a team of top engineers. The best move would have been to implement better paid support model and allow more users to pay for support. Currently CH charges immense amount for their support, so only large corporations could afford.
