I think most of the Jellyfin ecosystem is open source. Was curious if the code for your desktop client is, too. Would be fun to poke around the GitHub for a project like this.
It's because when a news website wants to talk about the vulnerability they get a webpage to link to that is canonical and has all the information someone would want to get an accurate description of the issue.
Perhaps that's how it should be in a perfect world, but in the world we live in that isn't the case and doesn't seem likely to be the case - there are some local markets for CO2 incentives, but on the international level there's no willingness for major emitter countries to pay other countries, no evidence that (or why) this willingness might appear, and there's no global government that could make or enforce any rules unless countries opt-in; nobody can force nuclear countries to pay others.

1. Tax companies for their portion of CO2 generation. Let costs trickle down to customers. 2. Split tax collected evenly to each citizen/perm resident via monthly check. 3. Let market figure out Co2 reduction solutions. 4. Create whistleblower process to keep carbon sequestration companies in check.
my comment was not meant to be absolutist - what I'm looking for is just a very reduced and usable simple car - I don't mind a non-offensive screen if it's required and where it's useful and well made a touch interface might also be useful - but I don't need 99% of the digital things that are packed in a car - I'm not familiar with the building or cost setup of modern EVs but I could imagine that reducting in sensors and cabling might have an effect. Then give me that backup camera, some minimal android auto interface or whatever there is - I can't imagine there isn't a market for that.

> Know someone who was just wrong about COVID? to the point you cut them off? see if you can talk to them again.

I knew someone like that. I cut him off (just in that conversation, not the whole relationship). Turns out that, as we learned more about COVID, he was not completely wrong like I thought he was.

But I can't talk to him again. He was my father, and he died last year.
"If it was easy everyone would do it"
I kind of do this. I keep an engineering notebook of all the progress made on a side project. It is helpful for when you need to come back to it after a week or two.
Hi! Author here.

I have spent a lot of time thinking about this and believe that the most straight forward solution for long running (or even forever running) workflows is to allow hot upgrades.

A hot upgrade would only succeed if you can exactly replay the existing side effect log history with the new code. Basically you do a catchup with the new code and just keep running once you catch up. If the new code diverges, the hot upgrade would fail and revert to the old one. In this case, a human would need to intervene and check what went wrong.

There are other approaches, but I feel like this is the simples one to understand and use in practice. During development you can already test if your code diverges, using existing logs.
It will have on-board nuclear plants to generate helium /s
The Erlang "telemetry" module can even be used "applicatively" with good uses.

An example of that is a "caching reverse proxy" in use at https://transport.data.gouv.fr/, which helps protect data producers servers from excessive load from data consumers (which we manage for them).

"External" requests come to us (via proxy.transport.data.gouv.fr) and if the response is not in cache (for a configured TTL), we forward the request as an "internal" request to the target (3rd party) server.

The proxy uses "telemetry" to generate events for these internal/external queries, without knowing how they will be consumed (https://github.com/etalab/transport-site/blob/master/apps/un...).

The main app receives those events and does what it wants, in this case upserting metrics in the database (https://github.com/etalab/transport-site/blob/master/apps/tr...).

As a result, it's easy to use LiveView to create a real-time dashboard to show these metrics (https://jumpshare.com/s/rdGtTa47CzlcgOz4jsOI - low traffic at time of posting) or generate stats for the data producers which are behind the proxy (EDIT: LiveView source code at https://github.com/etalab/transport-site/blob/master/apps/tr... and https://github.com/etalab/transport-site/blob/master/apps/tr...).

It's all quite natural to do because it's really baked into the runtime!
Isn't that exactly what https://www.cve.org/ would be for?

I saw some (in a Youtube vid) so narrow, in whatever mountain, that people doing MTB rides had to... unscrew the handlebar to make it loose enough so that the handlebards could then be turned 90 degrees. Otherwise the bike simply wouldn't fit (and there was no other way than that tunnel).

I forgot where that was.

"Feature complete" can still be an awfully long way from "content complete", let alone "ready to ship"
1. some cars are easier to get under, or have more expensive cats (hybrids fit the second category)

2. cats are usually traded for drugs, so such operations are more common in areas with more drug problems (the kind of people who can recycle them tend to have drug connections, and the kind of people willing to grab them tend to be addicts)
Basically, you can have your server follow another instance as if it were a user account. Assuming the remote instance allows follows, their local feed gets duplicated to your federated feed. If they allow mirroring, you can configure the server to mirror in different ways. You can mirror the N most viewed videos, new videos, and 'trending'. Then you can set a disk capacity limit, and have videos fall off after so many days. Presently I'm sitting on 320GB of mirrored videos. 300 is automatic mirroring.

Then of course you as a user can manually request a video be mirrored. I typically mirror everything I watch. I wish it had an option to automatically mirror your subscriptions, but it should be fairly trivial to write a script that does it.

There is no design flaw. The catalytic converter is mounted in the same place as on most cars. It's larger than on most cars and tends to get less corroded, both consequences of the hybrid design, but that was not a problem when the cars were new. These thefts mostly affect the second-generation Prius, which was discontinued in 2009.

The "design flaw" is that, in the few years leading up to 2021, the price of platinum nearly doubled, the price of palladium nearly quadrupled, and the price of rhodium increased more than tenfold.

I claim no expertise. These facts aren't hard to find.
I don't think this is more centralized, because it requires taking out multiple companies services. To take down three of these networking companies at once is something we've never actually seen, and that's the level needed to be comparable to a CloudFlare failure.
This is hosted on GitHub Pages, so it takes very minimal resources to setup and keep running. The domain is also likely $10, assuming they didn't need to pay a squatter for it.

I think it's just a trend for any any huge-scale vulnerability research team to put together a website for it, as that amount of effort will indicate a certain level of attention the exploit requests of the reader / the security community at large.

And it doesn't always happen. Log4shell, for example, was not its own website: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29504755
I remember when it was $700. Inflation is getting silly.
I disagree: if you're a good product owner, it will aid with the goal of scaling.

For example, when you're sitting there walking them through something they could do alone, are you just playing back some script, or are you getting an understanding of where they went "aha!" and making note of how you can embed that aha moment into the product itself?

It could be interesting to simply waste time for that hour, while still being co-operative. Answer extraordinarily slowly, be as verbose as possible, go on as many tangents as possible and go into as much detail on your first answer as you possibly can imagine, so the first answer takes the entire hour.

You're still being co operative and answering questions, they just run out of time before you get a lawyer or they cut you loose.

With a «right to roam» law this isn’t a problem. Most land around me is private, but with the right to roam I can move over private land as long as it is not farmland or someone’s house property (garden, parking lot etc). You can also move over grazing land as long as you remember to close the gate and you can move over farmland in winter time. You can also walk through people’s garden if needed to access trails etc. usually land owners have no problem with this and works together with local groups to maintain trails and access to trails. Granted, there’s not very much good farm land here, mostly mountains.

I just got to know that svelte components can be complied into web components.

If so, then probably using svelte as a compiler for web components can be one way to do things.

Not sure about routing though. Maybe page.js or something.

Even for vanilla js, till might need vite, postcss, tailwind in some cases.
I personally loved the book.

I don't think it gets enough credit for keeping its message concise and approachable.

Plenty of nuggets of wisdom in there to glean from.
So, I’ve been seeing Kodi dying and thinking about a move to Plex, Emby, Jellyfin starting from zero knowledge.

I pretty much ruled Jellyfin out for what appeared to be lack of enthusiasm.

Ruled out Plex for privacy issues.

Looks like it’s going to be Emby I guess.
Many years ago, I was on a working group looking at different ways to improve quality within a fairly large software development company. One of the most useful ideas the consultants brought to the table was that we should have “technical reviews” at key stages in the development process. The arguments back then were much the same as they are today: identify potential problems the original developer missed, share interesting ideas in time to consider and use them, making changes earlier is usually easier and cheaper, etc.

Today code reviews have become common practice, which is definitely a change for the better, but I rarely see assets like specs or design work reviewed with the same consistency and attention to detail. If anything, the trend has been to minimise formal requirements capture and to reduce or eliminate any kind of up-front design work, as if there is some kind of bizarre dichotomy where the only amounts of time you can invest in these activities before starting to write code are measured in either months or minutes. I believe this is a mistake that often leads to avoidable wasted work and tech debt.
I get that this guy tries to take a perspective based on error reporting, but it really has nothing to do with the difference between interpreted and compiled.

I've built a scripting language with a full lexer and parser. It is capable of giving errors in both stages. It does not make it compiled or even interpreted. It is first when you execute the instructions of the language it becomes an interpreted language.

It is a good point that "compiled" is not a boolean property. A language like C# can be interpreted, JIT compiled and AOT compiled - it all depends on the toolchain used.

However, usually developers refer to compiled languages as those that gets translated down to machine instructions, and to my knowledge, CPython does not do that.

No, that's the place where you get an identifier for the issue. You still need a place with answers to frequently asked questions, more details as to how the attack works, artifacts and proof-of-concept code, etc.

> as that amount of effort will indicate a certain level of attention the exploit requests of the reader / the security community at large.

Feels like a dangerous way to gauge the severity of issues. What if the discloser doesn't have the funds or the skills to setup a dedicated website? Will it not get any attention since there's no yodawgiheardyoulike0days.com website to float up to the top of HN? This is what CVE severity scoring is for and what should be used, not the presence of a dedicated website, no?

I liked the story, but I'm not sure what the moral is. I don't think running a company is really what people mean by "lifestyle business". I also think the author seems just as disappointed to not be rich just as many of us are disappointed to be employees that never experienced an exit either.

> Don't tell me they didn't know what all the costs of this was going to be.

They... didn't. You think, back in 2017 when they were planning the service, they knew how much programming they'd producing six years in the future and at what price point?

Corporations aren't nearly as smart as you think they are. Budgets are changed on a year-by-year basis according to how consumer behavior is different from what they predicted, and how the competition and overall market is different as well from what they predicted.

> They get deals by committing to prices for a number of years.

No idea what you're talking about. What deals? Committing to what prices? Apple TV+ isn't purchasing existing shows. They're making Apple TV originals. The budget for each season of a TV show is set shortly after that show gets ordered/renewed for a first/subsequent season, and it changes based on how successful the show is.

They're not "going into it blind", but predictions for anything -- viewership, costs, competitor prices -- are very often off by a factor of 2 within a year or two in the corporate world. Apple isn't made of oracles, just regular business analysts.
