You are right, the trade off between space & time has limits.

And that limit is just another form of the “speed limit” of light.

But it is interesting that within that limit, space & time can be traded against each other.

All time delta’s can be traded to space delta’s (simultanaity), but no space delta, bring 3D can ever be fully traded for time.

Two events at different locations can never be made to appear at the same location, unless you could travel at the speed of light, which we can’t.
> I don't think OS becomes any less vulnerable than usual Linux/Windows installation.

A modern Linux with SELinux enabled (the default in e.g. Fedora) running apps inside rootless containers (Podman doesn’t even need a daemon) is likely much more secure than your default MacOS or Windows.

We will have countries against each other fighting for their borders but world war is v unlikely in our lifetime.

We love our cheap goods, cheap-ish energy and ability to change presidents and prime ministers.

Yes China, North Korea and Russia banding against the rest of the world is a real threat but China has shown it is selfish too and cares more about its economy.

I don’t think most people would go through the trouble of changing it. Tbh bing isn’t much worse than google nowadays.

As long as people find out which celebrity was in what movie or what restaurants are nearby, they wont care if it’s google or Bing that tells them.
I was thinking the same. Websites for people wanting to set up a small business seem to have died for this reason. Within 10 mins you can have a page on Facebook or Instagram. That is what bands, small bars, cafes etc are using in my part of the UK. This is zero work and cost. Using WordPress hosted or Squarespace would cost them at least 100 $ a year, but also require more thought about their requirements.
You also avoid Kessler with geosynchronous orbits anytime soon because everything out there is all doing the exact same orbit and thus the relative velocity is very low. It also helps that the orbital shell is so huge.

what points to morocco being the culprit? Alex Jones maybe? :'). people dont need to prove innocence. they need to prove guilt. so where is your hard evidence. do science, not baseless statements. I have visited morocco many times and am intimately familiar with both urban and rural morrocans. they are afraid of and highly protective against extremism in any form and are peace loving people. that is my personal experience.
All the best political analysts work for hedge funds

Capital hill bloggers are too emotional and ideological to be good analysts
It's not even interesting for people in the industry, but it garners clicks so even reputable publications produce this drivel.

The number of "Random Goober XYZ made 200% this year" articles that turn up on Bloomberg is quite high. By and large it turns out that they had one really good year in a sea of mediocrity, or the P&L is an accounting trick (hello Universa and the disingenuous numbers that got pushed around them).

In a sufficiently large collection of clueless people, there'll always be a small number whose bets happened to be very good in a particular year and the media likes to run with it.
"Ms Freeland, you are a lifelong expert in Ukrainian and Ukrainian-Canadian history and politics, I'd love it if you looked over this list."

or

"Mr Speaker, I hear you're putting together a set of speakers for Mr Zelensky's visit, it would be great if you would share that set with me, as I have a special focus on this area"

I'm sorry, I don't see the confusion here. Unless you think that would be partisan interference with parliamentary procedure?

Putting it another way, if she was my MP I'd be pissed. Because she's not "just" the deputy PM & finance minister, she's an MP in the Canadian parliament in the governing party, and this has been one of her lifelong areas of study, and I would expect her to be applying her expertise on the public's behalf, because that's how she got voted in.
They sure did make some money though "killing" would be an exaggeration given what they had to put up in capital. It also could've gone the other way too; hence aptly called 'betting'.

One would assume they had appropriate hedging strategy in place, but given how hedge funds perform poorly in aggregate, I'm inclined to say these funds just had a little bit of luck on their side.
I dropped my Kindle in water a year ago and got a Kobo as a replacement. Haven’t regretted it one minute.
Bluetooth Low Energy Audio with the LC3 codec should be finally able to do it. And some of the newer headphones support that. In theory. How good this works in practice, I don't know, manufacturers aren't even advertising proper duplex, probably because they would have to admit that the old mechanism is just crap.
Murdoch's WSJ is Fox News for the tophat/monocle class.
LTCM performed a similar "arbitrage" with no edge. It's risky, and professionals underestimate the loss from a deal failing (these bets require a lot of capital) and often don't have serious models to explain why the delta between the market and acquisition price is too large. It's possible to understand a powerful individual and an institution well enough to bet for or against them with an edge, but easy to be influenced by a subjective narrative about them without realizing it. All that said, when someone has a good streak going, it's sour grapes to complain it's only luck. :)
> If you play indie PC games you can’t boycott Unity without missing a ton of really good games.

That may be true, but so what? There are more great non-Unity-based games than I have time in my life to play anyway.
Especially when never bringing up what some of those more important things could be.
So you don't like Unity because of everything happen and how they threated game developers. And for that reason you want to refuse to pay those game developers?

As it's now Unity dont collect any telemetry.
Yeah, without context this makes no sense to post. Almost feels like karma farming from that certain other website.
Lombok's headaches are because they are touching Java compiler internals to accomplish their magic. This won't fix that.

Lombok wouldn't be nearly as troubled if it was just doing simple bytecode manipulation.

If lombok wants to stop the pain, then they'll need to stop reaching into internal APIs. They'll possibly need to remove a few features (like some of the `private final` work they are doing).

In other words, you can expect lombok to be a headache for years to come. (Maybe consider not using it? That'd be swell. Speaking as someone that curses lombok everytime jdk updates roll around.)
This is largely correct, though I would add that prior to 2004 nearly all broadband was delivered over telephone wire. That made it Title II.

The first real net neutrality enforcement action was when FCC chairman Michael Powell under George w bush stopped Madison River from blocking a VoIP provider. Powell used Title II.

It took about a month from complaints to action because the FCC had clear authority.

That's why an agency needs clear authority.

If the FTC would have had to act, it would have taken 2 years and the FTC would have had to approve him that that provider had some sort of monopoly power.
Not sure where you’re getting your Opera figures from, but I’m seeing 4x Firefox than Opera, even with Firefox typically shimming away Google Analytics.
If anything ONLY huge for-profit companies have the knowledge and resources to build their own engines. Without Unity or whatever takes its place thousands of indie devs would never have get off the ground.

I couldn't find the comment again, but as somebody else said here on HN a while ago. The comment was like ..

We live in special times. Until 100 years ago we had just news from other people, mouth to mouth. So we had to decide what is wright and what just BS. Last 100 years we had newspapers, radio and TV. News was mostly true, we could trust what we saw on pictures, on screen. But now again .. pictures can so easy be just fake. So we have to decide again, what is true and what BS:
They ran the story as a claim that a US soldier was taken hostage, not as a fact that a US soldier was taken hostage. From the NYT article:

"The authenticity of the militants' claim Tuesday could not be immediately verified. Defense officials at the Pentagon in Washington said that the U.S. military was investigating the incident but that had no indication any of its soldiers were missing in Iraq."
What decision would that data help you make?
I'm on safari 16.6 and reader mode seems to work just fine on this site.
Going to financial publications and "talking your book" is a common thing for hedge funds to do. Keep in mind they can also influence the market like this, and generate inflows to their fund. Generally financial publications allow this barefaced aggrandisement because everyone knows the bias, and just like you learned in high school history class, biased accounts are just as useful sources of information.

> the runtime fee policy has been almost completely reversed

Oh, that sounds good!

> Under the revised terms, there is no runtime fee whatever for any game developed with a current version of Unity, only for those developers who adopt the latest version in 2024.

So, not at all reversed, just pushed further into the future?

> Overall the changes seem to address most of the issues people had with the new terms, and importantly it is more or less opt-in

This makes it seem like this is a submarine post trying to help Unity to regain some sort of control, rather than a journalistic investigation into the event, where the journalist at least would try to be impartial.
it's the same in Italy: you either don't pay VAT but clients cannot claim a rebate or you pay it so your clients can ask for a rebate.

Depending on the kind of clients you have (end users or commercial entities), one is preferable to the the other.
I find most of my photos to be cruft, and take time to delete photos that are no longer relevant, or have lost their initial value. I don't take many photos, I'm talking about memes and interesting things I found online. Over time these build up if you don't take the time to delete most of them. Then when I reach ~1000 photos in my camera roll, I just put them in cold storage on Amazon Glacier and forget about them.

Unfortunately the government has teamed up with the corporations to continue to push it for decades:

Sometimes I use the other searches just to see how different they are, and they are pretty good. There are less ads on DDg and brave which makes the experience at least a lot better.
The current law is more general; it’s the current policy’s consumer price heuristic that has become a bad approximation to the law. I like “The Economists’ Hour” on the topic.
i'm excited about duckdb and have used it for a few "what-if?" projects here and there but keep getting bitten by the file version breaking changes. i appreciate that it's under rapid development and that there's a way to export and import to mitigate it. excited for when that portion stabilizes a bit so that i can roll out some of those prototypes in a more formal and meaningful way for my team
Depends, if you’re big enough, it will come back to you after it orbits once.
Sounds like a great idea to me. Compute neutrality, storage neutrality, etc. Bits are bits, don't look any deeper!
Major developers are too focused on things that hardly matter like cutting edge graphics, and hardly interested in things that do like gameplay. Indie is where people are more forgiving, and keeping as much profit matters. Thus in house engine development is a more viable strategy.
Seems like the headline is misleading. The FCC is a tool of political will. Some politicians who will determine future FCC rule-making wish to reinstate net neutrality.

Seems like this back and forth could go on for some time. It would probably be better to come up with a solution that can supported across changes in control.

Given the discussion here it isn’t clear to me what the middle ground might be other than some scorched earth. Maybe net neutrality for consumer benefit only on a non discriminatory basis?

For example, a MVNO could not penalize any Internet traffic but they could offer a no capacity cap service as long as any other comparable service had the same access. Such a setup would probably be cause for a large number of lawyer billable hours which will make lawyers in both sides happy.
66% accuracy is not "great" and definitely not the best there's ever been.

Just had a lightning bolt: I predict _linking itself_ will be broken in a few years time. Imagining spammers doing their most efficient to get eyes on ads, they’ll have AI generate copy with fake source and supporting links that just send users to ad-riddled malware sites. This will inevitably make any link untrustworthy.

Without linking, how does the web even work.
How could they possibly have done that? Dont they have a EULA that users have to consent to? At least the PR disaster raise a big red flag.
I would have guessed higher than 78%.
During initial setup, allowing product owners to choose what browser they want, whether its Safari, Chrome, or Firefox, with their respective browser engines, would be nice.
It feels like most of that frustration is (or should be) directed at other commentors. I tried to frame my questions in a way that someone who does not read sheet music and is also unfamiliar with tabs might frame them. I saw the developer had been replying to comments or I wouldn't have bothered. I was hoping he might elaborate for potential users of his app. I certainly didn't claim it wasn't a good idea, merely that my frame-of-reference gave me no indication of how it worked for piano.

My parents never bought us a piano. My grandmother passed her decidely-not-Steinway down to us, and also paid for lessons with a school music teacher. I joined the band in 5th grade and played a school-issue trumpet until my parents could afford a used one. After my 10th grade the band teacher lost almost all his trombone players to graduation, so he taught me over the summer before I started my junior year and gave me an old trombone with lots of dings, which I used through my freshman year in college, after which I dropped band because it was a 1 hr credit and took about 25–30 hours a week (practice with band, practice on own, perform at games), and I wasn't a music major.
They enable experimentation: show this page variant to these users, that variant to those users, and make sure neither group overlaps with a third group in another experiment...

The games market is large, but not infinite. Like, there may be many space games, but only one space sim that has the depth and complexity of KSP 1, and that’s KSP 1. Not to mention that a lot of gamers have no idea what engine their favorite games use. For instance, I was shocked to discover that Disco Elysium used Unity because it looks so different from the “stock Unity look”.
What does 'down vector' mean in this context?
I got an AirGradient like 2 years ago and was very disappointed with the quality of the firmware. I wrote my own with Arduino which was good enough for ~2 years. But last week I found out about ESPHome, and they have a blueprint https://devices.esphome.io/devices/AirGradient-DIY that just works. My (slightly) customized version: https://gist.github.com/M3t0r/b81ce82796a2ec30f5470f1345f9ca...

Whatever you think of the openness or quality of the firmware, the hardware is open enough to just flash your own.
Our friend has not visited Tiktok lately or played any of the popular online games. These kids are fucking HOOKED 24/7.

A ton on here like to pretend to take a moderate viewpoint when espousing strictly conservative views or talking points.

Exactly.

How is "We've decided not to open ourselves up to legal liability by retroactively modifying TOS conditions, and instead only make the same changes in the future" a 180°?

Fuck Unity's corporate ownership. And so fuck Unity.
Not exactly. I don't trust Unity because they've clearly demonstrated that they can't be trusted. I'm not avoiding Unity as some sort of solidarity with wronged developers, I'm avoiding Unity because I don't want to support a company that behaves that way.

> As it's now Unity dont collect any telemetry.

Maybe not (but maybe -- how would I know?), but Unity clearly has no problems throwing people under the bus if it suits them, so again -- they can't be trusted. On this point or any other.
If we have to go through a holocaust or a genocide to get to that utopia where people can sift through this flood of information with well-honed critical thinking skills, will it be worth it?

Because, in the extremes, that’s what we’re talking about. Genocides often come as the result of a long disinformation and dehumanization campaign.
That's what Unity did, they are ~freemium, and tried to raise prices on paying users. They just showed you can do it incredibly stupidly.
Guide to the GitHub Universe ‘23 agenda
Thank you for clarifying what I said with different words :)
> I think the time has come when android and ios should make a special versions of their online shops for children and teenagers and simply ban those types of games from those shops. This will at least prevent children from having their brains rewired. Of course this will remove the vast majority of games from the online shops, but so be it.

Amazon did this with their Kids+ service, at least they did 5-10 years ago. They had a selection of popular apps with all the monetization removed. My daughter and I played a lot of OG Plants vs Zombies as a straight game, really fun. I later installed the public Google Play version to revisit it, and it felt completely different, with all the gates and upselling we avoided back then.
Bring them down to San Diego too! I can’t get over how fun a solution this is for reducing very flammable areas.
> In Finland and AFAIK all Nordics, all invoices must be VAT inclusive. If you are selling up until 15k EUR year you can do it VAT free, which is too small to be considered a professional business. Alternatively if you are selling services outside the EU (freelancing internationally).

Isn't there provision for reverse charge (effectively zero VAT) on B2B transactions where both parties are within the EU?

I have heard this argument a lot. Let me tell you it is categorically false. I run multiple bootstrapped software businesses which culminated in a $4 million profit last tax year. After many many years of failure.

The biggest mindshift required here is you need to really think what can technology solve. Most products being developed by bootstrappers are competing in a space where the problem is already solved. For example the nth job board. Yes in that case if yours look shitty people won't use it. But that is not a problem at all if you are solving a real problem.

I will give you one example, and this is me sharing one of my products for the first time: a custom mobile app for housekeepers in rich families in the UK. The mvp for this was built over a weekend using just basic ios tools. Important thing to understand in this market (custom apps for companies) is that you have to go after companies for whom the branding difference is whether they are number 1..3 or 4.. and 4.. companies die due to competition. So if you can in anyway help them stand out for a large annual contract, they will lap it up.

There are many opportunites like this. Instead if you are building the next app that you are seeing online, ya you are too late.

The other thing is alpha products that are rough around the edges still exist. Forget the Twitter screenshots. When you used Twitter for the first time, did it look like that screenshot? No it didn't. Because by the time it became popular enough, it had been polished a bit.

So what you are doing is comparing a product which is popular now vs a screenshot of the thing before it was popular. If you actually look at the first alpha version of things of popular apps now before they were popular, you will see that they are still rough around the edges.
Maybe a little bit less so as a lot of ui frameworks are available now.

Also older stuff look rough around the edges even more because ui trends themselves have changed.

So don't fall for this myth.

Solve something hard using technology with a ready to go ui kit and get the v1 out there as soon as possible.
