I really think it's a mistake to assume that there will be one thing which replaces Twitter. This has ~never happened (I think possibly the only example would be the Digg->Reddit migration); normally people leave a dying social network for a _variety_ of other things, not for a copy of the dying thing.

In an ActivityPub world, this is particularly unlikely to happen. Arguably, we've actually had a social media ecosystem a bit like this before; there was a time when Wordpress (self-hosted or service), MovableType and a few others could interact via things like pingbacks (a sort of early quote-tweet).
Well, yeah, but it's the same way on the other side of the Curtain: Such as, France had its own nuclear weapons and was in complicated relationship with NATO, but it gets totally conflated into the Western bloc with no reservations. Same with neutral Sweden and even Finland.

So I don't see any point to nitpick.
Writing assembly is rarely a good choice in modern days. Whether assembly code is correct or not depends not just on the target CPU, but also on the target OS.

See that bug for the example what gonna happen https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=121838...

TLDR: Windows ABI conventions say xmm6-xmm15 vector registers are non-volatile. When a function uses them, it needs to backup old data, and restore before the return. Linux ABI conventions say all vector registers are volatile and don’t need to be preserved. Chromium has non-trivial pieces written in assembly, and crashes.

When writing C or C++ with intrinsics, registers are managed by the compiler. Modern ones follow these ABI conventions very carefully.
Except the space (opportunity cost) of building more housing
Asset inflation at this point is a runaway process caused by companies raising prices to cover increased costs and adding a margin for safety because of volatility. Companies in one area raising prices has a downstream effect, both in raising costs for other producers, and in allowing other producers to raise prices because of people's expectation of "inflation."
Yes, I know. But leaking grandchildren is still a problem for the grandparent.
I have no great love for GitHub, I avoid it for my own projects but their official cli client is pretty functional and there are just tons of other clients, graphical or not for GitHub, GitLab etc …

I say that as someone who don’t like GitHub, but overall it’s far from the worst tool an employer may impose to its employees.

But active noise cancellation removes (perceived) sound. Wouldn't that make it worse, then?
I think I said this in another comment, but I'm not shitting on Spanner or DDB's right to exist here. Obviously, there are _some_ problems for which a globally distributed ACID compliant SQL-compatible database are useful. However, those problems are few and far between, and many/most of them exist at companies like Google. The fact is your average small to medium size enterprise doesn't need and doesn't benefit from DDB/Spanner, but "enterprise architects" love to push them for some ungodly reason.
I don't think it is misleading. Although there is a name-collision with the SI time system that some people call metric time [0] already. I don't know how many people, or how official it is. I'll probably keep calling decimal time metric time, and we'll see if there is a real collision/confusion/misleading.

GitHub has a CLI https://cli.github.com/manual/gh_pr_create
Every mail server/provider that provides 2FA that I used allows for configuring "tokens" (called a bit different everywhere) which are a high entropy random string, and some of them require TFA only for IMAP or POP, i.e., getting mail, not SMTP, i.e., sending mail.
“Want to contribute? Subscribe to our mailing list that sends a hundred emails a day.” Nope.
The community would rather either have cheaper housing for actual residents, or the wealthy person spending their money there regularly. What we have is the worst of both worlds.
Nope, this is a completely different proposal.
Amen to always having good ear plugs.

I tried many including the Eargasms and never found a comfortable fit. So I got molds and custom ear plugs from Westone.

They are so comfortable and high quality they often improve the quality of the music at a concert.

My only regret is not getting great ear plugs sooner, as I recently developed mild tinnitus from DJing and going to lots of clubs and concerts.

The good news is that with the ear plugs I have returned to all my previous behaviors and the tinnitus is not getting any worse and actually mellowing out.
The market can stay irrational longer than individuals can stay unhoused.

Show HN: Tomoropomodoro – Pomodoro for Coffee Shops
For sure we all have used some kind of productivity apps and most of those are not that effective.

I see pomodoro apps as some kind of fake concept with no real impact on my productivity, it doesn't make sense at all. yet it is on the top chart of App Store...

And throughout the years I find only effective to work for me is to work at coffee shops with random background music selected by the shop operator.

So I developed my own "pomodoro" app with a simple function that toggle your reward circle in different ways.

Please use this app at a coffeeshop or any places surround with music :)

Any feedback is craved!
Show HN: Play Euchre with AI Bots
Hey HN,

I built a website where you can play euchre -- a team-based card game -- with and against ai bots: http://euchre.fewworddotrick.com/

The bots use counter factual regret minimization (CFR) and perfect information monte carlo tree search (PIMCT) to select their moves.

Everything is built in Rust:

* Dioxus for the web page: dioxuslabs.com

* Actix for the server: actix.rs

* "regular" Rust for building and training the bots

All of the code is here: github.com/swpecht/swpecht.github.io/

I created this to make it easier to get a human baseline to evaluate the strength of different card-playing algorithms.

Any feedback is appreciated -- especially on the performance of the bots or if you have ideas on how to improve them.

It's terrible, plastic recycling is a myth told by the petrol industry, that purposefully messed up the recycling labels and greenwashed the entire industry.

It's physically not possible to recycle plastic and get the same propriety back. About 10% of the plastic is "recycled" worlwide, meaning it's been reused to do something else but can't be used for the same thing (e.g: bottle -> insulation)
It's a different story between country, in Europe some country recycle a big part of their plastic:

Insurance is a similar market - and big earthquakes might wipe out a whole decades profits.

Yet there are still plenty of players in that market.
The key feature of the integration isn't the thumbnail, but that Slack indexes your Google Drive files so they show up in search. That is absolutely worth it IMO.
I don't think it's quite that simple. After the offer was submitted he famously tried hard to NOT buy Twitter. In the end his attempts to back out of the purchase because of the supposed undisclosed bot problem were thrown out in court, but iirc he could still have pulled out by paying "only" a couple billion dollars in fines or something. I guess it comes down to "do you believe Elon Musk when he says something" and plenty of people understandably didn't.

That doesn't make them "literally illiterate" though.
> You can have centimetres but that not in the spirit of the metric system really.

"Centi" is an SI prefix just as much as "kilo" is, and has been part of the metric system since 1795 just like "kilo". I don't see how it's "not in the spirit" of the metric system. It also fits in neatly in that 1cm^3 of water is roughly 1 gram (the original provisional definition of gram was 1cm^3 of water at the melting point of ice; the current definition is more precise), and so 10cm^3 of water is roughly 1 liter.

The SI system has prefixes going up and down one power of 10 up to 10^3 and down to 10^-3, and then in steps of 10^3. They're all equally part of the system; some are just more common in some contexts that others (e.g. we use hectograms but rarely hectolitres, and decilitres but rarely decimetres, and centimetres and centilitres but rarely centigrams) depending on what happens to be convenient.

E.g. kilo(10^3), hecto(10^2), deca(10^1), deci(10^-1), centi(10^-2), milli(10^3), but then mega (10^6) and micro(10^-6) are the next steps.

> Most sailors are using paper charts for tricky sections anyways — you just normally have a constant GPS location provided by your navigation system.

My experience in Marine SAR is that this is no longer true. Apps like Navionics, SeaPilot, etc - often without any backup at all - are by far the most common form of navigation.
There’s no conflict. Developers are building and selling as soon as they can. That’s their job and that’s their business model.

The people withholding units from the market are your normal landlords and speculators who can stomach reduced rents in the income. They need to be taxed out of existence. LVT continues to be the right answer here, both for incentivizing development and disincentivizing speculation/holdouts.

Nope, again this doesn't really happen any more.

Hilariously enough, because of all the anti-tax haven stuff, Ireland has ended up with the cleanest dirty shirt and now books lots of revenue from corporation tax.
It's still not for sale.

I sent the last prototypes to a couple of Beta Testers (Actual Composer/Music Producer, no Youtubers) and took their feedback to make a lot of Hardware/Software improvements.

If you're a professional Music Producer and want to test a Prototype, just send me a mail via the website.

The next batch of Prototypes, planed for EoY, will be a bit bigger, to get even more feedback and there are a lot of requests from reseller that want to try it out extensively (Thomann for example).
I'll also have to do a new EMI/ESD check (hopefully the last one)

As I said in another comment, I aim to have a Batch of 100 ready for sale around May next Year. But lets see how this plays out. Hardware is hard ;)
The comment is addressed to the informed reader who is the only one with a hope of being persuaded on this point.

To teach this, from scratch, I think is fairly easy -- but there's few with any incentive to do it. Many in academia wouldnt know how, and if they did, would discover that much of their research can be shown a priori to not be worthwhile (rather than after a decade of 'debate').

All you really need is to start with establishing an intuitive understanding of randomness, how apparently highly patterned it is, and so on. Then ask: how easy is it to reproduce an observed pattern with (simulated) randomness?

That question alone, properly supported via basic programming simulations, will take you extremely far. Indeed, the answer to it is often obvious -- a trivial program.

That few ever write such programs shows how the whole edifice of stats education is geared towards confirmation bias.

Before computers, stats was either an extremely mathematical disipline seeking (empirically useless) formula for toy models; or using heuristic empirical formula that rarely applied.

Computers basically obviate all of that. Stats is mostly about counting things and making comparisons -- perfect tasks for machines. with only a few high-school mathematical formula most could derive most useful statistical techniques as simple computer programs.
The mugger, through no coercion of Bentham, chooses to go down a finger. It is obvious that the mugger has an insane utility function, but it isn't obvious that Bentham letting him act it out is causing a drop in overall utility.

If the mugger doesn't want his own finger, it is Bentham can choose to trust him that 9 fingers are better than 10. Maybe the mugger is even behaving rationally, maybe the 10th finger has cancer, who knows. As the story illustrates, giving him $10 didn't stop him from losing his finger. There are many factors here that make the situation unclear.

Yup, locals in vacation areas always like to complain about their revenue & employment source.
Having a large cohort paying full property taxes without consuming services (police & school being the largest) either suppresses the locals taxes or increases the services they would be able to get otherwise.

Everyone wants to live in the goldilocks situation of a desirable area with low prices, good services, low taxes, good commutes (low traffic and-or good transit), and plentiful jobs. I've lived in various areas from rural, suburban to Manhattan and.. you can usually have 2.5 out of 5 at best.
The point here is largely that reality (at our level) is not something which can be simply solved by the application of a couple of rules, from which Right Action will thenceforth necessarily flow.

Reality is a big, complex, ball of Stuff, and any attempts to impress morality upon it will be met with many corner cases which produce unwanted results unless we spend our time engaged with dealing with what initially look like tiny details.

The trouble with that is moderation. Presumably there exists some Nazi who has a Wordpress blog. If they're a particularly noisy Nazi, that could get Wordpress.com banned on a lot of instances, because the Fediverse's primary and easiest moderation route is nuking badly-behaved instances, and many instance admins are _particularly_ sceptical of corporate ones (some instances have _preemptively_ banned threads).

This way, every Wordpress blog is for practical purposes its own instance.

That said, the username component does seem unnecessarily unwieldy.
Not to be confused with grindr.
Yes, but the advantage with the "push options" is that I can put it in my .gitconfig and it just works automatically when I do a git push without using some proprietary platform's cli.
You could use the same exact reasons to justify wage inflation while suppressing asset inflation lol. Of course, we know who has the power to get what they want. It's called capitalism for a reason.
That’s your bias showing; GitHub is primarily designed for getting work done, as it is a paid service that needs to serve its customers.

Metric time is about factors too, but it prioritizes the factors that simplify the comparison across (literally) many orders of magnitude. This is way less helpful for everyday life because we usually only reason within 2-3 orders of magnitude, but we deal with tons of harmonic subcycles that the 24h clock makes easy.

For a fun, a more justified usage of metric time, check out Vernor Vinge's "A Deepness in the Sky" (also IMO one of the best sci-fi novels of all time). A spacefaring humanity that stretches their life across journeys and projects that span centuries, and which has to artificially produce their own daily cycles, gets a lot more value out of metric time.
What I've done is to tune a sine wave to match the frequency of the tinnitus, then notch that frequency in white noise, and blast the result for a few minutes. My tinnitus has not been permanent, it's just the rare occasion where I forget earplugs for a concert, and come home work ringing in an ear.

This technique makes the ringing go away for a while, but it creeps up again after some time. Thankfully, it has always completely gone away after a day or two.
Not just people, people hired by the business selling the repairs. Didn't you read the article? Businessmen are not beyond hiring thugs to commit crimes in order to increase their revenue. This is a sign that people cannot be trusted to regulate their own market. People will do anything they can to increase their profits. That's why an unregulated market can never work. Just simple human psychology.

> I haven’t opened Google in a few years but I’ll try to remember to compare some results and provide you screenshots tomorrow or this weekend. I’m surprised others haven’t already done this!

I've seen a lot of people give concrete examples on how Kagi is worse in different situations, but yeah no real good solid examples of how its better. If you're doing a compare, please compare with DuckDuckGo as well. That is the one I use and am most interested in. Thank you!
JSON does have one advantage over XML: it maps cleanly onto primitive types in Python and many other languages. XML attributes don’t really have an unambiguous way to be represented using list and map primitives (other than maybe an “everything is a map” model, which sucks from a usability perspective).
For what I have down (2k and down, main) the quality has been OK. I have also read some complaints about quality at high res, but I am a happy customer
I would interpret "accessible" here as meaning relatively accessible compared to what it could be. The underlying concept is inherently difficult, and so it will always be somewhat inaccessible, but within the space of all possible explanations, I would agree that it's on the more accessible end rather than the less.
It's not feasibly impossible, it's very hard, but for some type of plastic, you can recycle it infinitely (like PLA).
Why would sleeping time be a fraction of 2pi?

Well, actually one uses floating point arithmetic, which isn't rational numbers either (as shown by the classic example a = 1/3, b = 3*a, then b != a)
This is the same reason a point is 1/72 on an inch - many factors make convenient typesetting.
Had it after sickness at the age of 14, it dissappeared itself, but at 32-33 had it because of neck issues. Yoga and neck exercises solved it, as blood vessels became less obstructed.

Some diehard yoga exercises like standing on my neck with legs up lead to neck- and head-ache for couple of days accompanied with noteable noise in ears.

I have a friend who's an osteopath. He points out that if, at wakeup, you have symptoms like feeling of swollen head or cant breathe with nose despite there's no snoot, and these symptoms go away in few minutes, it's neck issues and obstructed blood vessels and lymph,,which work ok with gravity, but not in horizontal position.

ZITADEL Co-Founder here.

Thank you for the nice words you describe well what we try to achieve!

With ZITADEL we aspire to become the best of Auth0 and Keycloak in more modern package. Or in other words are a end-to-end open source identity infrastructure. I know this sounds a little unspecific but our goals are:

1) Have AuthN/AuthZ, Login, SSO as Turnkey features but also allow people to build their own UIs

2) Have an audit trail that allows people to see all changes ever made

3) Give devs the ability to extend zitadel with custom code (actions)

4) Support well given standards (OIDC/Oauth/SAML/LDAP) with certification if possible

5) Be ease to operate and scale

6) Provide APIs for everything ;-)

Btw. its always nice to see other projects to solve problems in the identity space. To me it feels like Obligator can, at the moment, be best compared to Dex since it feels a lot like a façade service that has little user management capabilities (not that this is a bad thing) but wraps them for easier usage in multiple services. But please take this observation with a lot of salt since I have not used or tinkered with Obligator.

I think education is a major issue here. I know I used to recycle plastics, but after reading through comments on here, I would rather just throw it in the trash and know it will be at a landfill. This makes me feel better than the alternative, in which it is sent overseas and more likely to be dispersed throughout the environment.
