The sense of the word "luddite" (I guess until this recent rethought) has always been pejorative, and has zero dependency on political ideology. Why even bring it into the conversation, unless you're trying to stir some shit up.

Sure, we should have higher density apartments in more areas, but they'll probably still all cost the same, the demand is pretty unlikely to be met and landlords will continue to charge insane rents no matter what. They'll probably all be luxury apartments as everyone is looking to maximize their profits.

For your edit: 'honest questions' (which are in fact anything but: the person asking has no interest in the answer, and the question itself is often leading) are a common disruptive tactic used by people (normally pushing extreme right-wing ideologies) to derail a conversation.

I'm sure that you're not doing that here, but unfortunately people with genuinely honest questions have become collateral damage caused by disingenuous actors, especially among people with itchy downvote-trigger-fingers.

> It would be awesome to run Linux on a MBA M2 as a first-class citizen, like it used to be possible on MacBook Airs from the early 2010s. Everything just worked.

My current personal laptop is a ~2010 i7 11" MBA running Ubuntu. Had to dump OSX a few years ago as updates eventually murdered performance on it (Tried clean install, still completely unusable after I made the mistake of letting OSX upgrade).

Battery is kind of crap now, but still gets ~hour. Enough for it to sit plugged in next to the couch for a quick dig into something, I'll plug in if I need more. I am tempted to upgrade, maybe a Framework? but.. Why? I love the size, and it's still plenty fast enough.
First thing I notice is that the notch is now highly visible.

Even with a dark wallpaper or no transparency everything is the wrong shade to hide it.

I'll bet some MBA at Apple thinks it's really import to get that notch into everyone's face. :(

Yes, software breakpoints are difficult to get correct (the main reason why I started with hardware breakpoints). It gets more complicated with kernel debugging, where a single step (trap flag) could get pre-empted by an interrupt handler. And you can't always single-step a CPU and leave all other CPUs frozen.
FYI, there's a somewhat related topic at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37630804 concerning the difficulties of editing text on a mobile under the heading Text editing on mobile: the invisible problem.

As is my usual wont, I had a long rave about such matters but one of the points I raised that may interest those here was the lack of Bluetooth keyboards, especially the more portable types with good mechanical switches.

After posting, I thought I'd better do a updated search to see if the market had improved and I've just discovered a complete range of keyboards of which I was unaware, namely NuPhy https://nuphy.com/ (perhaps I'm a member of the mushroom club and the last to know). Anyway, it seems the market has improved significantly in the last year or so since I last looked.

There's good range of KBs with combo Bluetooth 5.0 + wireless + USB-C cable + hot-swappable keys/key types. Some reviews seem favorable but I'd be interested to hear experiences from others who've actually used them.
The Windows itself may not use dotfiles (although VS Code does IIRC), but lots of stuff lazily ported to Windows, including Git for Windows, do place random dotfiles straight into %USERPROFILE%, which they arguably shouldn't.

Show HN: Agiler – Serverless WordPress Hosting
This is something I've been working on since the beginning of the year, after noticing a surprising lack of serverless options for WordPress (given how popular it is).

It's built using Golang on AWS, using EC2 with LXD containers for the workers. Each PHP request runs in a separate worker; and the MariaDB instance starts up concurrently. A proxy is used to serve non-PHP requests (images, js, etc) so they dont need to be passed to a worker. I also built a request queue so the server load could be controlled/balanced and the PHP code execution time is somewhat consistent.

A big goal for this was to allow WordPress to run without modification. So there are no modifications to WordPress itself or any of the PHP code. So updates and plugins can be used just like with any other WordPress hosting.

Feedback appreciated.
The main problem with the glasses, in my view, is the cost. It means those of us in developing countries cannot afford it, meaning its only available to a select few. This seems to be common for a lot of assistive technology solutions, even software.

I think without a major consumer product as a platform, it will never reach the number of people it wants to help. AS in example take what the iPhone did to the market of braille note takers.
I guess YC has a vested interest in SF being a liveable and safe city which seems reasonable.
I'm not following the details of this closely, but it sounds like he's a Democrat criticizing Democrats in SF for going to far left. Often these critiques from within the party are the best. There are lots of voices on the Republican side who see that party shifting too far right. I find those voices trying to pull to the center the most useful from both sides.
Your proposed solution doesn't solve anything, it only delays it.

As long as workers are not self-organizing, top to bottom, up to and including what to produce, how much to priduce and how to produce it, the domination will exist. What is the added value to the society of having bosses ? Of having people not producing but deciding how to produce ?

Scratch the destruction of machines, the sudden uprise, the distinction between what group acted and what group negotiated. The real lesson to learn from this all: society doesn't need someone telling you what to do if they're not also a worker.

Warming oceans are fueling destructive hurricanes earlier, study finds
>Major hurricanes — which cause devastating damage on the planet’s coastlines and often well inland — are forming “significantly” earlier in the year than they did generations ago, according to a study published in the journal Nature Wednesday. Warming ocean waters, boosted by human-caused climate change, are thought to be a primary driver of the trend, which has both forecasting and societal implications.
Ukraine's history with Naziism is very complicated. When the germans arrived, many Ukrainians saw them as liberating them from Russian occupation/aggression, and didn't mind or were ideologically aligned with Antisemitism. The Ukrainians had come out of a genocide committed against them by the Russians and so Naziism, as the primary anti-communist force in Europe, was aligned with Ukrainian nationalism. Whether you fought for or against the Nazis, you were joining the bad guys.

To be fair that might be partly the fault of TLS libraries. There should be a single sane function that does the least surprising thing and then lower level APIs for everything else. Currently you need a checklist of things that must be checked before trusting a connection.

I was forced out of college 20 years ago due to rising costs.

In my first year, going to an in-state school, I was already paying the limit of what I could reasonably get through loans.

Then Gov. Pataki killed the Tuition Assistance Program and SUNY decided to raise tuition by 40% into the next year. I heard that the year after that they did another 30% or-so tuition hike, but by then I was already gone and working full-time.

On the other hand, I've tried many keyboards, including the ErgoDox and Kinesis Advantage, with the latter being the most comfortable for me. While the Moonlander boasts impressive customizability, I found its untypical angle of the thumb cluster to be a drawback for my personal typing experience.

Given its premium price point and the extended delivery time from Taiwan (mine took almost a month to come to the UK), I'd strongly recommend trying it out before making a purchase to ensure it meets your ergonomic needs and avoids potential disappointment.

StarLink has made satellite internet service vastly cheaper (overall), so I'll guess you mean Earth observation data.

How do you figure that any of the ~tiny companies in that market could benefit from a major price cut? Demand (at anything near current prices) is limited, and ramping up capacity (operational satellites) to take advantage more business would be very slow/expensive/uncertain.
One particularly aggravating manifestation of the medical industry's inability to be wrong is its tendency to blame patients. It is famous for doing so in the area of obesity. But one rather entertaining incident happened to me: I was in the hospital under observation and (for medical reasons) fasting. They had me on IV saline which, apart from the medication I was getting, was all I took in. After a day or so, I was informed I had developed a potassium deficiency, and given a supplement with the air of someone who needed to fix a bad diet.

My potassium had been just fine when I came into the hospital. At this point, I stood up and read the content of the saline bag, considered how many times I'd seen it changed, did a little noodling about sodium potassium balance, and dramatically downgraded my opinion of the experts in charge of my care.

Sure, but the original slogan was "reduce, reuse, recycle". In that order.

Recycling is a farce in that for decades companies have focused on it to ensure we don't reduce how much we consume. For example, I just heard an obvious greenwashing advertisement on the radio for some product the other day that said we should all "recycle, reduce, reuse", i.e. "consume the same amount, consume maybe a bit less, and if you really have to don't consume".
I've never run one of these models locally, but their README has some pretty easy to follow instructions, so I tried it out...

It's true that I don't have an NVIDIA GPU in this system. But I have 64GB of memory and 32 cpu cores. Are these useless for running these types of large language models? I don't need blazing fast speed, I just need a few tokens a second to test-drive the model.

Effective tenkey entry _is_ a touch typing skill and it's much faster for number entry than the number row.
Yep, some items are locked up almost everywhere, as the post you replied to said. What's unique to SF is the amount of uniformed security and amount of items locked up versus what you'd see in the same store in Manhattan, for instance. You can discount the anecdotes all you want, but what's going on in SF is not the same as other urban areas. Perhaps it's a west coast contagion, since the apologists mostly point to other west coast cities, which are suffering similar issues?
Indeed, but there is a very different risk profile in this sort of situation. A human might be able to say: "I can't see that label very clearly, but I think it says X...", and the user might make their risk assessment based on that implied (lack of) confidence. This tends to be a weakness in AI solutions, where there isn't often good feedback on the model's own estimate of its error rate.

On the plus side, I suppose in this application with the humans there's always a risk of a malicious volunteer outright lying, which presumably isn't a risk with the AI solution.
The “Libertarianism” that you refer to here is a word stolen from the Anarchist tradition (e.g. Chomsky), a socialist tendency that has nothing to do with the radical right-wing ideology of entities like the Libertarian Party in the US.

Such “Libertarianism” can't even claim that their own name originates with themselves.
I've also been impressed by the progress in Ladybird. One point though is that there is an incredibly long tail of work in the major browsers related to OS-specific work, performance, browser-specific features, edge cases, legacy support, etc.

I'm not saying Ladybird "needs to" have all this, just putting some of it into context. And it's no slight to the project either; they've managed to get a lot working with a paucity of person-hours.
The problem really seems to be with running arbitrary untrusted code.

Dean Preston and his whole coterie of trust-fund socialists should be posted back to Connecticut where they came from. Peskin and the other do-nothing landlords can retire finally.

Man's greatest advantage over (Generative) AI is his creativity, originality, ingenuity, spirituality and commonsense. Our defeat is sealed once we become more impressed with statistically produces results (including the obvious hallucinations and subtle lies by mission and omission), rather than trusting our God given qualities.

We are and should not try stopping technology: we just have to sublime our human qualities and keep proving technologies' limitations (many of which are so obvious as requiring only some commonsense).
To their credit, a lot of people went back a decade later and fixed those. Although it doesn't stop people from repeating the mistakes.

I'm just disagreeing that the patches are the same. I agree that Miculas did do the hard work by finding the cause of the issue in the first place - but he's correctly credited as the reporter.

As for the clean patch - part of the issue is that Miculas was slightly overengineering some of it with the additional macros and added noise with extra conditions on the fpidx declaration.

Ellerman's "I don't want to coach this rookie" vibe is somewhat understandable given this is the security mailing list - it's just not the time and the place to be going back-and-forth.

It is plagiarism by definition if you don’t give credit to the person who wrote the original patch. Paraphrasing a source without citing it is certainly considered plagiarism in non-programming contexts (even if you think that you improved the prose style).

Increasing any amount of supply will decrease prices while demand stays constant. Do you have reason to believe demand will grow at the same rate as new housing is built?
If you're paying a developer by the hour, and want your app released in the app store using as few hours as possible, then this approach can be the most cost efficient one.

The entire industry of 'hot takes' is a waste of time and participating in it cheapens and does a disservice to pretty much all of the participants.

By AI guardrails they mean: AI cannot be used to write or rewrite scripts, and cannot be source material; but writers are free to use it if they wish.

Reminds me of how elevators originally had operators, until everyone realized how wasteful and silly it is to have someone whose sole job is to press elevator buttons. As AI improves, we will come to feel the same about writers.
Shit is crazy! I did not know about the amount of fake scholarships private colleges give until today! If I knew it in high school I would have applied to more expensive colleges. I only applies to public universities in my state in high school because they’re cheaper.

Do the discounts aka fake scholarships rates apply to public schools as well? I’d think not.
> (What is it about tech and the word effective?)

I'm with you on the silliness of putting "effective" into all sorts of places where it should already be implicit.

But I do like the awareness among engineers and other practical people that any idea can be executed badly, many flawed ideas can be executed well, many good ideas resist successful execution for a long time, and many good-seeming ideas resist successful execution indefinitely. It's an everyday reality for some people, but to others it's a bizarre, suspicious-sounding line of reasoning, most likely invented to avoid doing the <all caps> obviously right thing </all caps>.
Of course, this all makes perfect sense if you live inside the LKML bureaucracy. From the outside it just seems bonkers. This is why it's important to reconsider policies that don't make sense.
