...I'd like to point put that the Pi 4 without any overclocking basically replaced the first non 486 my gamily owned as a family computer.

The Pi 5 will end up replacing my first gaming spec'd E-Machine.

Considering the wide variety of use cases I got out of both of those computers growing up, it takes very little imagination imo to figure out what to do with them.

Even on e I get around to actually getting an x64 server spec'd machine for actually doing grunt work, I figure these little Pi's will be perfect for little oneoffs like mirroring repos I care about. Constrained dev boxes, network jiggery pokery boxes. Hell, might even get around to trying a non traditional form factor builds one of these days

Ask HN: Developers, do you use Postman for API testing?
Great! I'm looking forward to getting a few of these. I currently have five Raspberry Pis running in my house, mainly for dashboards:

* Zigbee2MQTT in a closet in the middle of the house

* FullPageOS [1] dashboards on the bedroom TV, living room TV, and a screen in my office

* RetroPie running emulators and video screensaver on an old CRT TV in my workshop

It would be nice to make all of these a little bit faster.

Sending humans would be difficult (technically we have the technology already [see Project Orion], it's just illegal), but it's certainly possible to get a probe out there far faster than New Horizons. Travel speed is mainly determined by the delta-v of the upper stage. New Horizons used a Star-48B solid rocket motor to get to its escape trajectory. However, if the probe were smaller, or the launch vehicle bigger, it could have multiple upper stages, significantly increasing the ultimate speed. It might also be feasible to use an ion engine stage with solar panels and a route that dips down below Venus' orbit to get even more speed without increasing the probe mass significantly. In other words, with a large enough budget, we could easily get a probe to those distances in under a decade with no new technology required.
Except Singapore does not really allow "immigration" from non vetted people via the employment pass system. Additionally the permanent residence process is heavily controlled with a huge bias (documented via govt stats just in case people are curious) to south east asian immigrants. So the situation is quite different
SongTradr's main business focuses on earning money for musicians. We aren't in the business of owning music and then licensing it, we're in the business of connecting musicians with companies that want music. some of it is advertising, some is YouTube/content creation, and some is for streaming (https://pretzel.rocks, which is how I joined the company).

We support the artists by finding diverse ways for them to monetize their music. I've purchased a dozen albums on Bandcamp. All of the artists are already on pretzel (our content acquisition team works hard, especially on internal referrals), but I look forward to simplifying the process down to a simple click (right now it's DDEX and spreadsheets)

I'm not a fan of our marketing, but it's more aimed at content licensees, not licensors.

React is a terrible patchwork of a solution, which literally doubles the UI logic and work needed to get it performant. But it works, it solves the issue of being straight-forward to make platform agnostic by following tutorials.

I don't see any other way to go trully multi platform without making separate UI for Android and iOS.
Or if you are going desktop, without using a platform agnostic graphics engine like something on top of OpenGL/Vulcan (which, v8 under electron is. A platform agnostic graphics engine). But, you are never going to get the native feeling/snapiness, because you are literally placing a canvas (your, multiplatfom app), on top of another canvas (Native UI engine of your platform)

IMO, if you want to build a service for someone, which carries some actual, real world utillity. And you can sell it to someone. You can't go wrong with a WebPageRenderer like Electron and some frameworks if choice underneath. This way, you can easily let the customer in on the joke from whatever device they are comfortable with.
And only if you are working with a tool for pro IT or you are well funded, go for experimentation with faster UI. And even then it is not a rule, of which examples are VSCode & intelliJ dev tools. Both built on top of JS & Java platforms, both hindering their true potential like a stone tied the scrotum...
Then the dev team never gets to write anything because they're always being interrupted. On top of the fact that developers are almost never in charge of prioritising their own work - that's what project and product managers are for.
That's by design. you can access content on any federated mastodon (and others) instance even if you have an account on another instance. You don't have to be on instance to communicate with their users unless they ban you or your instance or if they aren't federated.

Oddly looking at Japan etc you’re likely to see worse traffic as population declines not better. People end up abandoning areas and concentrating more so you get ghost towns and mega cities.

It becomes much more expensive per person to keep a small town water treatment plant running and roads cleared etc as population declines. So not only is useful infrastructure abandoned early, you now have people migrating into already densely populated areas.

Recessive genes that make a carrot orange
It's definitely not simple, but I think it's approachable, even for a beginner, but you've got to put in the work. Find parts that you think might work, then dig into their datasheets and read the related application notes. Look at the eval boards. When you find something you don't understand, look it up. Manufacturers want you to use their parts, and often they will provide everything you need to know to be successful. Look at Texas Instruments and Linear Technologies / Analog Devices for excellent documentation.
> Prioritising the replies of people who pay money for it was a body blow

A Twitter reply thread will only load around 200 Tweets in total, so on Tweets which have been in front of a lot of eyeballs, it's more likely that your reply will never be seen by anyone even if you pay, which defeats their whole purpose for ruining reply threads as a selling point. Just an incredibly short-sighted change.

My browser extension for Twitter [0] can hide replies from "verified" users - if you look at any Elon Musk tweet with this feature enabled, you'll be lucky if you see more than 1 reply.

Quote Tweets are where it's at now if you want to find comments on busy tweets which are somewhat better than all the boosted Twitter Blue users posting cry-laugh emojis, and they've recently made those take multiple clicks to access, from one of 2 different menus (my extension also restores the old Quote Tweets link).

I just clicked it, and it shows $107 for the 8G/128G version.

But either way, I think your seriously conflating a lot of variables. Things like power draw are not really comparable unless you pick a workload and measure the perf/power, as just clamping the max frequency down, or putting less ram in it can constrain actual power draw, while still possibly being as performant as the rpi.

I don't see pricing for the case + fan + power supply on the rpi, but the 8G model is $80 for the board. So you have to find at a minimum a battery for the RTC, a case, fan, powersupply, and 128G SD for $30. But then SD isn't in the same ballpark as even the cheapest SSD with respect to longevity or at $10 likely perf either. Plus, your shit out of luck if you need 16G of ram on the rpi vs paying an extra $18 on the beelink.

In the end, the rpi is going to be a fun hack device, while the beelink is going to just work with a wide variety of software (windows anyone?) and Jeff G won't have to complain about his m.2->pcie->graphics card not working out of the box either. OTOH, if you actually need to design a HAT/whatever for some special purpose it might be easier than designing a m.2 PCIe device, or it might not be. The GPIO on the rpi might be very handy if it happens to work better than a ESP/whatever attached to the beelinks USB port driving GPIO pins.

Much of this is going to come down to how much one values their time for one off devices, and for larger production runs the fact that the beelink is just one of hundreds (likely thousands) of similar devices that can be drop in replaced when beelink has a supply issue. Particularly because there are devices that are just a $100 more with multiple 2.5G links, sata ports, whatever.
Sure, the president proposes things for legislature to adopt so he (or she) can sign.

Amendments don't touch the President's desk, and the Senate and House get mad when the President meddles in things that are for them alone. If the dream is to pass an ammendment, it might be more effective to form a single issue party, like the Prohibition Party and raise the issue that way. Prohibition passed, but their presidential candidates never had a chance of election.
Novelty.

Current search is determinative (in theory, Google ad-meddling aside). New search is stochastic. Two queries may yield different paths.

I mean, it's blatantly a new level of dark patterns, but it's being seized up on by the psychopaths and sociopaths for that.

It feels instantly novel.

Right, Google already had that in 2015.
1) Job titles can be pretty meaningless and are inconsistent throughout the profession. A senior or lead developer at an average non-tech company might barely qualify as a junior developer at a more technical firm. Some 26 year old who isn't very good might manage to get an inflated title simply by consistently job hopping every couple years.

2) If you had to give an objective definition of a senior developer, it might be somebody that can design and plan out complicated product features on their own and who others turn to for guidance. That doesn't mean that seniors don't sometimes need to collaborate with others, but generally they can figure out how to solve most of their own problems without having their hand held.
Hey, im Sebastian,

Over the past 4-5 years I have been traveling all over the place. Natively I speak Norwegian, and English when I travel.

Benefits = I get to practice A LOT of English
Downsides = I feel like I am losing Norwegian words.

I spend a lot of time working on my computer and I wanted an easy way to build vocabulary. The result: AtomicVocab

Build your vocabulary in English and Norwegian, straight in your browser! The words chosen are the more uncommon words that still can be used to communicate your ideas better.

Would love to hear your feedback!
It’s Google not because of Pixel but Android.
Same! I'd greatly appreciate an invite too.
In hindsight, the victor claiming they won because they were better than Bing et. al is exactly what I would say as well if I rigged the game.

We are so commonly assuming that Google has the secret juice that makes search work, and we are so deep in that we can’t trace our steps back and see if this statement still holds in 2023 or not!

Same goes for companies perpetuating the myth that they only hire mega-brained geniuses. That is far from the truth! Most exceptional companies are bound to regress to the mean at some point :)

As a consumer, having my freedom of choice so severely limited appears decisively anti-capitalist. Ffs Firefox please remove Google as the default.

You don't understand how evolution works. You need to read "The Selfish Gene" by Richard Dawkins.
Turns out there is! __builtin_launder seems mostly equivalent to what the author proposes but probably more reliable. Facebook’s folly library appears to use both, preferring the builtin.
Lots of people don't.

If they did they wouldn't have these problems of wondering where functions are defined.

Who are these people not using an IDE when working professionally with a team of people? That's a much bigger red flag than putting using namespace std; inside a compilation unit.

If there is ambiguity, then you can just add a std:: in front of a function. This is all within a single compilation unit anyway.
Because you have to get the materials into orbit to make something free floating. A telescope on the surface of the moon can be built from locally sourced materials - the moon's surface is largely aluminum oxide, and aluminum is an excellent material for mirrors in an environment where there is no air to form an oxide layer to dull it - so instead of having to send up the entire telescope, you just need to send the equipment to build the telescope (which for big telescopes can be quite a lot smaller and lighter).
Like I said, it's possible that it's my bubble of following mainly spaceflight, programmers and comedians.

It breaks down when dealing with anybody who selfishly wants more than they deserve. A child stamps his feet and demands the biggest piece of cake, should you give it to him? Treating people the way they want to be treated rewards greed and selfishness.

On the other hand, treating other people the way you wish to be treated is self-moderating. If I am greedy, the golden rule commands me to be generous to others. If I encounter somebody who's greedy, the golden rule only obliges me to give them whatever I would think myself entitled to.

The golden rule can't make everybody happy, and isn't supposed to. If there is some delta between the way your grandparents expect to be treated and the way you want to be treated, so be it. I don't think this is a reasonable objection to the golden rule.
Does anyone else feel as though Twitter-now-X has somehow gone, in recent times, from being a questionable but tolerable hotspot of widely used, observable human interaction, to becoming a tacitly hostile, alienating door-closed-in-your-face non-entity?

I was never an active user of the thing, but at least I interacted with the site - via links, etc - on a regular, if minor, basis. It was a Thing, it had (for better or worse) global influence, and even a form of purpose, in the name of fast, ubiquitous human intercommunication of news and such.

Now, it's like the whole thing just doesn't even exist anymore. Or barely. Swathes of its purpose (such as it was), brand, and presence have just been ... wiped out. The only news on X that seems to make it to the mainstream any more, is news about X - such as this very topic.

It is difficult to fathom.

Surely Elon would enjoy his life more had he never become involved with the whole thing.
It is subjective. They are "more correct" from your historical context.

Assuming you're in a western nation, this means a Christian context.

Other nations and religions see it as immoral to eat pig or be homosexual. You might say they are "less correct" definitions, but that is from the Christian ancestry of which the western world was built from.

Counties that don't come from Christian roots, don't have the same moral definitions.

There's no point in graduating more doctors per year if there are no residency program slots for them.

I think Mastodon will win by attrition. It'll win over users when Twitter does something to piss off progressives. And then it'll wane for a while, but never quite die because there sort of isn't anything to die. And then something will piss off conservatives and there will be a growth of rightwing Mastodon. And then it'll wane somewhat. And so on. Ups and downs but like Bitcoin the trend will be upwards.

From what I have known and used, PuTTY seems to be the oldest software still in beta (0.79 at the moment), with it's first version released sometime in 1998, not sure about the exact date.

PuTTY's first Git commit shows "Fri Jan 8 13:02:13 1999" for beta 0.43, from r11 of SVN.

Professional associations often do organize themselves and then proceed to engage in the same, hideous forms of profit seeking that the big names do, especially if their journals are high impact. The incentives are just wildly misaligned and an attitude of “if they get away with it, why shouldn’t we do the same” is pervasive.

It's sort of the equivalent of trying to find your headphones by walking around with the bluetooth menu open on your phone and waiting to see if they pop up then they must be nearby, except all you know is that they're somewhere on Earth and you don't know where until you come within ten feet or so of them. And in reality it's even harder than that, since the surface of Earth is essentially two-dimensional as far as finding things goes, but a search for a planet would need to cover most of the volume of the greater solar system.
