This term pre-dates the alt-right by decades. The term "dog whistle" was popularized by William Safire in 1988, who campaigned for Richard Nixon among other things. It's historically understood to be a tool used primarily by social conservatives.

"In 1981, former Republican Party strategist Lee Atwater, when giving an anonymous interview discussing former president Richard Nixon's Southern strategy, speculated that terms like "states' rights" were used for dog-whistling"

Maybe you are thinking of a different principle? What you are saying sounds reasonable, but it is just not Occams Razor.

Occams Razor litterally just says that you should eliminate unnecessary entities from an explanation. It is a philosophical principle and not a statment about the natural world.

But the statments “the simplest of two theories is most likelily to be true” on the other hand is itself a hypothesis about the world which can be examined empirically. But I very much doubt this have been proven true for real world scientific theories. Perhaps for randomly generated theories it would be true, but theories are not typically generated at random. To follow the theme of the article - how would you falsify this hypothesis?
The LICENSE file does not explain which features are exclusive to the 'Teams' or 'Enterprise' plan of SigNoz. You need to dig through the documentation to find that. For instance, when you check for setting up SAML at https://signoz.io/docs/userguide/sso-authentication/#saml-ba..., you will find that it is not available in the free version.

I don't have a problem with open-core software, but please, be open about it and show a feature matrix of how the different versions compare.
How does this relate to the prior comment? Why does some random person elsewhere opining on whether 'there were no issues post takeover' or 'Elon made Twitter profitable' matter ?
Interested folks should check out the Allam cycle [1] and NET Power [2], which has successfully built and operated a carbon-dioxide turbine test facility and is now building a full-scale plant in Texas.

NET Power's approach has some significant differences from the DoE's. In their cyclical approach, natural gas and pure oxygen (obtained from an on-premises air separator) are combusted to form high-pressure CO2 and water. This mixture goes through a turboexpander, which generates electricity and lowers the pressure of the CO2-water mixture. After passing through a heat exchanger, the water is separated out as byproduct, and some amount of CO2 is also pumped out as byproduct. The remaining CO2 passes through the heat exchanger, brought back to high-pressure, and returns to the start of the cycle.

It's a quite incredible all-byproduct, no-emission energy generation process.

In my experience, people who are assholes in small ways are almost always also assholes in very big ways as well; they just don't know it. They don't have a strong ability to reason ethically and consider the risks and ramifications of their actions, so instead they learn a lot of social rules (e.g., it's wrong to steal, it's wrong to hit women, etc.) and think it means that they are a moral person where it matters.

However, when good behavior or bad behavior is not directly spelled out to them like that, they cannot easily differentiate between them and often select the bad behavior.

When I meet someone who is an asshole in small ways, I quietly put them on the list of people I do not trust or respect. I make sure they do not know I feel this way about them (due to not trusting them), but I take steps to undermine their ability to do harm in the world: I subtly discourage mutual friends from becoming close to them, I subtly push against them being promoted into managerial positions, I subtly warn friends who have crushes on them, etc.

There's a cousin to your comment with a guy refusing to accept that CO2 is a greenhouse gas.

I disagree. The older the code is, the more hands it's been through, which generally means it's stronger, hardened code. Each `if` statement added to the method is an if statement to catch a specific bug or esoteric business requirement. If a rewrite happens, all that context is lost and the software is generally worse for it.

That being said, I agree that maintaining legacy systems is far from fun.
Agreed.

It wasn't worth $44B when he bought it, so I'm not sure why the NY Times would even use that number in any way. If I pay someone $100,000 for a stick they found on the side of the road, it doesn't make that stick worth $100k.

I doubt Twitter was worth $19B even before Musk overpaid for it. It was a 15 year old company that couldn't make money.
"Either" implies there are only two parties, the buyer of the business and the seller of the business. The third party, the public who would use the services of the business, is the one being harmed if the buyer of the business also buys all other such businesses in order to create a monopoly.

This can also be done with products — not usually pens, but quite commonly with tickets for events. The buyer and the seller of the tickets can be quite happy, but the person who now owns all the tickets is free to tout them for higher prices to the detriment of the general public who would otherwise have bought them directly for less money.

This is annoying enough when it's just tickets (I'm told, I never go to the kind of events that touts do this at), but we also saw it with random goods during the pandemic.
I talked about localized marine cloud brightening, but why would you choose something toxic like SO2? There’s a reason why the first emissions trading market was one that controlled SO2 emissions: acid rain.

In the case of the arctic there are non-atmospheric (i.e. surface) interventions being investigated as well to change the local albedo. In fact the best way to brighten the arctic (and glaciers) is to reduce particulate emissions — and it’s happening!

> Ok, well, we've gone from;

Yes? The parameters of the discussion have shifted, so I am responding accordingly. This isn't a debate, let alone a sports game; there are no goalposts to shift, simply points to be addressed, not scored.

> I should not have to spend mental energy or time telling an (in your words) activist, edgy-millennial that encouraging people to build guillotines is not a good PR look and doesn't represent me.

I can understand it's an additional annoyance, and may be a dealbreaker in your book. I respect that. It is my position that it is a regrettable trifle and not all that different from when one's company PR, or even execs, make regrettable public statements. An overcomeable difficulty.

> If there were only one or two unions for software devs, (like OP implies) then it would be inescapable.

Sure, but it's such a different state of affairs from reality to seem positively absurd as a phantasm.

> What is there to motivate co-op founders to put their blood, sweat and tears into a new co-op?

I don't know, why don't you ask the founders of the Mondragon Corporation, or even the Arizmendi Bakery that bears the founder's name? Specific to software, what motivates those who start FOSS projects, or open hackerspaces or makerspaces, or create content for freeCodeCamp? Seems like there is precedence for autonomous, self-governing enterprises in tech, and I doubt that those behind them do not put in blood, sweat, and tears.
> No, Ads per visitor were roughly $18/m/u lately

What the hell, really? I thought run-of-the-mill web ads averaged out to like cents per visitor usually. Is Facebook really charging advertisers such a huge premium? Are people really spending so much time on it? (The last one may sound rhetorical, but still, I’d think most people couldn’t afford to spend a lot of time there, even among those who are well off enough to be on it in the first place.)

It seems to stem from the Python packaging story being driven by PyPA, rather than the Python foundation, which appears reluctant to pick a packaging solution and ship it with CPython. setuptools was kind of an in-between, it was included in CPython but in many cases you have to update it or add plugins...
My original comment was going to reference the "crab bucket" phenomenon but I toned it down a bit. Whether such support is reasonable or not is highly dependent on the specific rule/topic under discussion, and some of them are certainly not reasonable. And often such times such discussions don't even center around rules per se, but rather whether someone was "respectful" enough to said authority figure on a personal level.

I, as a free speech advocate, agree Elon is free to say his core values are freedom of speech while censoring peoples speech.
The fact that he tried to get out of the deal is evidence that he had acted impulsively.
that's a perfect example.

So this seems to be talking about consensus algorithms that have a fast path when a new transaction doesn’t conflict with in flight transactions and a slow path when there is a conflict.

I don't think that is what they are saying, and I haven't seen any evidence of that. It makes the most sense to me that either (as GP said) they got rid of the H264 hardware to save on paying Broadcom for the rights to include that hardware block in the chip, or to save on the die area they take up (as RPi said), or both.

You know what, maybe I did judge a book by its cover. Let's take a look a the next several sequential usages of "climate", no cherry picking!

> This is something the average climate activist doesn’t seem to understand. Even if we could stop climate change, our civilization would still have the problem of dwindling resources.

> To accomplish that, the damage we’ll do to the environment could potentially outweigh the damage done by climate change.

> If you don’t believe me, I’m going to quote a letter written by experts in Earth science and delivered to the United Kingdom’s Committee on Climate Change a few years ago.

> And unfortunately, climate change is making it harder to grow these trees. Droughts and floods are making them struggle to survive, and tapping too much of the sap (which is used to make rubber) can kill them. Plus, they are very vulnerable to white root disease, and climate change is making leaf blights like that more common.

...and its exactly what you would expect from the title.

This is almost exactly how accounting works. Whenever they want to decide how much something is worth the answer is the most someone else would pay for it.

Doesn't make it less insane, especially in the presence of idiots with huge sums of money.
> They typically don't need to dedicate the same resources to compliance as large entities though, and this feels fair to me.

They typically don't actually dedicate the same resources because they don't have much money or operate at sufficient scale for anybody to care about so nobody bothers to sue them, but that's not the same thing at all. We regularly see small entities getting harassed under these kinds of laws, e.g. when youtube-dl gets a DMCA takedown even though the repository contains no infringing code and has substantial non-infringing uses.

"Though only about the size of an office desk, household refrigerator, pony, credenza, or golf cart"

Wow

"the new turbines are powerful enough to generate the electricity equivalent of 10,000 typical homes"

Average home power consumption is about 1kW... 10MW output in a turbine the size of desk/refrigerator/pony/credenza/golf cart??

Wind turbines are 10-20 MW and just the generators are around 150 tons... or 300 ponies
When WebRTC was being developed, a lot of the underlying protocols were derived from existing standards (RTP, SDP, etc), ostensibly with the intent of making it easier to bridge to legacy video-conference systems that may have been running SIP or similar.

Beyond that, there is a ton of stuff to accommodate different device capabilities, network conditions, realities of the Internet, etc. WebRTC has tried to be a "nice thing" for developers from an API perspective for the use-case of streaming realtime video to the browser, but of course all those knobs under the hood make it seem like a hodgepodge, rightly or not.

Would a clean-slate design with more tightly scoped goals fare better? Probably. But the underlying complexity needs to be handled somewhere and there are always trade-offs between control and ease-of-use.
What did you do during 10 months? Just put that.

Before I decided to leave it due to its horrendous false positive rate, gmail was driving like half of notification emails from my servers and mailing lists to spam, despite me never marking them as such. I was regularly missing important things.

It's much better with just regular client side bogofilter and some training on my personal mail/spam archive. And I do zero server side filtering, it's just all content based.

I don't care about capabilities, I just want near 0 false positive rate on the kind of email I receive (and not some common model), even at cost of some false negatives, and Gmail doesn't deliver there at all. And I don't want any arbitrary 5xx rejections for my senders, since I know how annoying that is on the sender side. Gmail will not guarantee that.

If he really wanted to be on the board he could've stopped at 9.2% of twitter instead of making a purchase agreement ...

Price feels fair for saving me time, but I have no use for a fairly low-res image. Do brands really want logo images that are less than 4k resolution and aren’t vectorized?
A stick that someone paid $100k for is absolutely a stick worth $100k - what people are willing to pay for things is how we assign them value. Twitter's stock was trading at ~$45/share before any rumors of acquisition - so somewhere around $35B - they'd made roughly $1B in net income in the year prior to the buyout. This meme about them "not making money" is so silly. Aside from a one-time settlement in 2020, Twitter had a very stable and fairly profitable business - hence why Elon had to pay $44 Billion to buy the company from the existing shareholders.

Yeah both Revolut and N26 are involved in a constant stream of complaints from people on social media, I guess this adds Wise to the group of shady fintech corps that probably shouldn't be trusted with anything.

I once went to an Atlassian conf and they resold all our emails to dodgy people. Or perhaps leaked them over the black markets.

Not only I keep receiving almost the same email suggesting to buy 5,000 email addresses of Atlassian customers with always the same fields, but it’s always from different domains.

I didn’t think of submitting an Atlassian ticket for each spam I receive. That would teach them.

NEVER give your true email to Atlassian.
$19B ?! I think they forgot the comma here. And even that would be generous.

All advertisers are gone - it seems like most advertising is some absolute crap. No way it brings any real money. Linda Yaccarino was recently caught lying (or rather, presenting the state of affairs in Elon's way) - suggesting and even naming some big brands that are supposedly back, while they are not (or spend 0.1% of their previous spending).

Creators revenue sharing seems to be a 'fake it till you make it' attempt - with first payouts an order of magnitude higher than the last ones. And of course, it's completely opaque - nobody has any idea what the payouts are really based on. But hey, Twitter open sourced 'the algorithm' ! Even Elon fans appear to complain and realize that they may have been mislead.

We are definitely witnessing history in the making. A guy, that 4 years ago had a legitimate shot at becoming an absolute legend, decided to push his 'optimism' way too far (for which, I believe, he will end up in prison) and then on a whim, to buy Twitter for $44B, only to burn it to the ground.
I have my personal mail hosted on a hetzner server using mailinabox. I didn't do anything fancy except whatever mailinabox's default config is.

I have no problem with email deliverability to gmail/outlook. I think the difference is that my emails are two-way communication. I email someone, they email back or vice versa. Not a continuous stream of unreplied emails from my personal server to some gmail address (which does look like spam).

I imagine if you set up a script to reply to these emails from your gmail account with lorem ipsum and then deleted those replies after a few days, your problems will disappear.
Losing actual money is not a good tax write off strategy.

Can you list a few examples?

I've never encountered a bonafide example before on HN that did not serve at least some purpose(s)/benefit some group(s)/etc..., after a careful analysis. So I'm a bit skeptical as to the claim.
That's the cost of free speech apparently.

Elon's cause is more noble than sheer capitalism.

Advertisers don't want to be on a platform that allows honest, open communication. A sterile non-controversial platform is much safer for them.

At some point as our rights and our freedoms in this country slowly erode, we're going to be grateful to have Twitter and to Elon Musk for being one of the last platforms to put our freedoms over sheer capitalism.
“No choice” was when I was in university. Text books didn’t have web sites then. To be honest I have no idea how frequent they are now. In any case, solutions not being available to students was a normal and expected situation back then, and it helped me develop grit for solving problems, because I’m otherwise quite lazy.
