Not to be a dick but there is a pretty apparent correlation between being able to hold down high paying jobs and interpersonal/emotional skills as well. Which is not to say that all people with low paying jobs are unreasonable assholes, nor that all high income people are saints.

But in my experience highly difficult people who complicate living situations tend to struggle to keep jobs for the same reasons that make them bad roommates.
It may be frowned upon to link to it here. But If I were looking, I would do a google search for "Microsoft Activation Scripts" and I would probably find an excellent github webpage. ;)

I would also probably need a separate ISO for Windows 10 LTSC IOT. I think I would check archive.org for something like that. ;)
I mean what choice does wikipedia have other than blocking the UK and still maintain their stated purpose and defense of liberty?

" Obviously books from the past can and do enlighten us about the present, and they don't literally have to talk about CNN to be clarifying about the nature of propaganda, but there are limits to what Plato can tell you about a world with 8 billion people in it." I wrote that in my first post. Nowhere do I suggest that the bed rock of the human condition obtains the contemporary. In almost literally every post I've made I refer to the value of classical knowledge and literature.
Read, “The Millionaire Next Door”.

And seriously, profligate spenders generally seem to have income sources that quickly replenish their coffers. Or they are owners and have those kinds of tax advantages. Or, they inherit. There is a generational shift in wealth going on.
I think that "for writing" is incredibly generic and a terrible search term. If you were talking to a human being about this, and you clarified that you weren't simply looking for text editors, but text editors "for writing", I would tell you that you hadn't clarified anything at all. Do you think one doesn't "write code"?

You might as well had said "for typing". And even THAT might have implied voice vs keyboard.
It‘s interesting how polarizing this thread is. The fact is that the portuguese state does not have the resources to create enough housing in Lisbon without foreign investment. The Portuguese will realize this when they have removed all measures that made cash flow in in the first place.
Not sure the snake is symbolically better!
Thanks for the reply !

With respect ingredients such as onions, I am concerned that what I think of as a medium onion, may not be a medium onion in other countries/cultures. Like, I generally will consider an onion of about 5cm (2 inches) as medium-sized, but if I am off by 1cm from the author's perceptions that's 50% less, or 70% more!

If a recipe could say '125g chopped onion (1 medium onion)' that would be so useful - catering to the geeks like me and normal home cooks!
Our scientists were so busy trying to figure out if they could, they never asked whether they should.
Come back to HN when it can run rust ;)
Great insights. The hosted version functions in a more or less same way as DocuSign with an added advantage of knowing what the code is doing under the hood. We dont intend to provide root/admin privileges as its going to be a multi-tenant system at the end of the day.
Been using Kagi now for a couple months and overall find it better than G. G also returned lots of rubbish depending on the query. At least in Kagi I can blacklist obvious SEO spam sites and never see them again.
You just made me think about what it would be like for people to take and summarize the interesting submissions here on tiktok, and more importantly the interesting chunks of comments, and I definitely would watch that if well done.

It would take a lot of skill to do well though, and I think that's the secret sauce, as I would read it just as easily as watch it if it existed in that "done well" state.
there have been other posts related to Arena based allocation on hn recently and I was grateful because it wasn’t something I was aware of. I found this interesting - I see this post is part of a trend.
> Yeah, just one quick look on Craigslist and you will see dozens of people throwing out thousands of magazines for free just to get someone to lift them.

The question would be how many of those are magazines which need preserving. You'd be wasting your time scanning old issues of National Geographic, for instance; there are already comprehensive archives of those.
Yandex gave relevant results for me for your query
(step 4 is something only some types of agents do)

For another definition that incorporates these elements (explicitly or implicitly), see Llamaindex's high level concepts page [1]:

"Agents: An agent is an automated decision maker powered by an LLM that interacts with the world via a set of tools. Agents can take an arbitrary number of steps to complete a given task, dynamically deciding on the best course of action rather than following pre-determined steps. This gives it additional flexibility to tackle more complex tasks."

I currently follow 447 people on Mastodon, and 258 follow me. I think on Twitter, after 15 years of having an account, I followed about 1000 people, many inactive by the time I tired of Naughty Old Mr Car’s antics, and was followed by about 1000 (presumably ditto). _In my niche_, it’s a perfectly adequate replacement, and is better than old-Twitter in some ways (it is so much better than the post-Musk mess it’s not even funny), but it would not be for everyone. I post about as much, maybe a little more (it’s easier to have a conversation, for a variety of mechanical reasons.)

I do miss quote-tweets as a mechanic; while they could certainly be abused, there were legitimate use cases. Mastodon plans to add them, but AIUI getting the appropriate changes made to ActivityPub to allow for consent-based quote-posting is a whole thing.
Because this means the game runs even worse on pretty much every PC out there, since the majority of gamers don't use the most powerful GPU on the market. And it's not like this game has some outstanding visuals which would somehow justify such performance.
> That's wild. I've never experienced anything like that -- not with AirPods or Bose or a cheap brand TOZO.

I had something similar with a usb 'sound card' I was using with a mac. I had to use some DSP software to artificially reduce the sound level to about 1%, and then it was usable. Worked fine on windows as I recall. I had a similar issue with a set of logitech usb speakers; one pair worked great, so I ordered a second pair, where (on windows) the lowest output volume is tremendously loud, I couldn't get the DSP software to stick though, and ended up replacing them.

In conclusion, computers are awful.
Funny how it had the opposite effect on me. Sure, I already think the whole thing is distasteful (to put it mildly), but all that "meandering prose" only drove it home to me, paragraph by paragraph, just how despicable the whole thing is.

"How some TikTok manager games the system" is an abstract thing. A deep dive into a real step-by-step approach of pumping phony "content" and sneaking it past viewers' defenses - that's a concrete thing that couldn't be more disgraceful, save only for if the article explained that it's all done for a singular reason: every part of this self-referential loop of "content" is an opportunity to get viewers to spend money. That's where the funds for all of this come from: everyone there is a piece of the advertising machine.
Like nearly all social engineering/behavioral economics theories, they fail the moment they're exposed to reality. So while Monibot et. al. can make a fine caloric calculation, they fail to imagine what'd happen when you start telling cultures with millennia of food traditions what they can and can't eat.

So you and I agree in that it'd be too expensive to bother – namely that you'd be attempting to erase some of the most important cultural traditions 'for the greater good'.
They were called "soap containers" (мыльница) by people in Russia (although they weren't allowed in afaik) because many soap containers were made of cheap plastic and that is what this car was made out of. It also smelled like it too. Lots of them in Poland back then...
There are probably a few parts of a relatively nearby large city where I wouldn't go out of my way to gas up late at night. But I can't personally think of a time when concern for my safety was something I remotely thought about when getting gas.
Ugh. Gross article. I hate SV dystopia-food dorks as much as anyone, but this sucks.

> The holistic approach, typified by Savory, sees human beings as stewards of the Earth, a force for good when guided by the right principles.

Where's The American Conservative stand on regulation to guide agribusiness by those "right principles"? Since, you know, otherwise they'll just keep doing whatever makes the most money. Any plans for dealing with the resulting higher costs for staple foods, using these approaches? What's the rate of voluntary adoption look like? On track to account for a majority of food production within the next couple decades, say?

Yeah, that's what I thought.

> Monbiot and his fellow Cartesian rationalists handicap their ability to understand complex ecological systems as soon as they make measurement of inert nature, out of context, a condition for understanding. In argument with advocates of holistic agriculture, this leads to all sorts of name-calling—“pseudoscience,” “greenwash,” “climate denial”

OMG.

Waste of ink/pixels.
Yeah, it looks dreadful.

We will get downvoted, of course, because omitting css is "cool" on HN.
If you receive b before a and combine them as b*a, that's commutative. Both properties are useful in parallel programming, but you may only need one in a specific case, depending on your application.
Say I run a porn site and a british 14 year old accesses it, and I don't have up these verifications, I just broke the law in the UK and now they can easily extradite me because the US and UK governments are -very- friendly. Seems like a good reason to block UK IP addresses to me...

SQLite is great, the article is not. The author seems to be compiling bunch of marketing claims and tries to sell it as a best practices. Anyone seend Exabyte sized SQLite databases in production ?
Its harsh to say it, but Wolfram tried his best at a computational theory of everything and failed.

We didn't know this is in the eighties, when the first cellular automata ideas were conceived. So it was a worthy thing to explore in earnest. But it did not work. There is nothing to show for it. It did not strike a vein. These things happen. All the time. You have a great startup idea but no market fit. In this case the market is the Universe. And you cant fake it till you make it with the Universe.

The universe most certainly has a mysterious affinity with mathematics. And computation is a mathematical concept. So its a decent hypothesis. But there are a lot of mathematical concepts that dont manifest in any shape or form in physical reality.

From the simple geometric thinking of ancient cultures to Newton's and Leibnitz's calculus and then all the subsequent glories of 19th and 20th century physical theory, when new mathematical concepts "fit" the way the universe works there is just an avalanche of prediction, verification, learning, refinement, further prediction etc.

Its wrong to think we have reached the end of "mathematical physics". So new ideas are needed, and computation is as good an inspiration as a falling apple. But prunning dead-end ideas is a faster way to get closer to the truth.
That other tone was my comment which I posted to offset this one :p
There's so much fanboyism around EVs, I think that EV proponents seriously overestimate their appeal and impact. To must of us a car is just a car, not some statement to the world about my alignment with the right causes and the cool kids. It seems like a highly emotional topic for those that are proponents, not a good sign.

The automakers, not wanting to be left out, jumped in once it became clear that EVs were kinda workable. You can't blame them, they have to follow the market. I'm sure they had internal doubters, but you have to see plans through just in case. I'd argue investment in EVs is just a hedge for at least half of the automakers.

Outside of a few diehards proponents, no one I know is particularly interested in owning an EV. EV proponents can't stop talking about how world changing and life affirming they are. I'm sure that's where part of the lack of interest stems from.
Something something `use rust`.
This doesn't work because the average internet user isn't an hn user. How many people here do you think would fall for an sms phishing campaign? And then ask yourself why they are as common. It's because this is a bubble and the average internet user doesn't even know what ssl is or has heard of the term astroturfing before. This is being abused all the time and it won't change.
The volume which comes out of speakers and into your ears is dependent on many different things. Some that come to mind are the sensitivity and impedance of the speaker drivers, the amplifier in the earbuds and the fit over/in the ear.

They are most likely just setting a toggle at a percentage of maximum volume level. The phone has no way of knowing what the sound pressure is at your eardrums.

You can rest easy knowing that you can ignore the warning if you think it isn't loud enough with the caveat that you could be damaging your hearing over time.

I haven't checked how they handle it for VS Code, but you probably agreed to some term before using it, and they're probably relying on legitimate interest

Glibc and the situation on Linux is not involved at all here; we're talking about OpenBSD that takes invoking system calls via libc very seriously.

The libc can enforce some minimal sanity checks on the syscall arguments. For example the number of arguments and some early validation to avoid entering the kernel if failure can be foreseen. But the main utility is to make it more difficult to use Return Oriented Programming to build exploits.

That doesn’t provide any guarantees that he’s not evolved into, a crank with money.

Looking at Physics historically there are multiple examples of scientists who did productive and fully credible work in their prime and later ended up stuck on crank theories.
Best transit card I have used has been in HK. The value on the card can be used in small shops around the city up to $150 dollars.
As indeed we do.
Do you have 120V at your parking spot? I know several people who bought electric cars, planning on putting in a charger in their garage. And then never bothered, because 120V was good enough. You can come home with an empty battery Sunday, plug in every weeknight, putting on 100 miles of charge overnight and taking off 50 miles every weekday for commuting and have a full battery by Thursday or Friday.
I used DuckDuckGo from 2018 until Brave Search came out. I know HN seems to be mixed on Brave Browser but their search has been great for me so far. And necroforest is right, you probably just need a more appropriate search query; "text editor" is almost universally understood as code editor nowadays.
Well it depends on preferences. I find the idea of paying someone to do basic tasks degrading, even though I could in principle afford it. So you would need "7 people who have similar opinions about the ethics of doing housework".

Related to the reason why I always avoid roommate ads if they advertise paying for housecleaning once a month, because I can only really imagine living with, um, adults.

(this gripe does not apply to people who are working around childcare)
I haven’t used Google Search in so many years that I can’t recall when I last used it. I’ve been using DuckDuckGo and it has always found what I’m looking for. Maybe I’m missing out on some results, but I have no way to know without double checking on Google, but I’ve always been satisfied with the results I’ve received and have seen no need to go looking elsewhere.
You know that there's nothing stopping an open source project funded as a not for profit from doing the same thing right?

If something is hard, that's an argument for making a standard not for profit version of it, so it becomes a common good instead of platform rent seekers keeping out competition by saying it's "too hard".
If I were considering an electric car, which I'm not, I would probably look at maps that presumably exist on the Internet before I'd trust random spottings on my part.
I want an EV really badly - just not the current ones. Give me a Subaru crosstrek type vehicle with 400 mi range, I.e a car with 8-9 in ground clearance and 4 wheel drive. If it’s 40-45k that’s okay.

Not sure what the ground clearance will be on the upcoming rugged edition of the smallest Volvo ev crossover, but that could be getting close to my requirements.
That's the beauty of Kagi, you can hide and downrank the noise and junk websites so that you only get the high-quality domains you're looking for.
Strange comment for Hacker News. Maybe the author wanted to learn more about COBOL and this was a fun way to explore that and share their findings. Not every personal project needs a business case to justify its existence.
The last major parking garage fire here in Norway was also started by a diesel car catching fire[1].

Although several EVs were parked and started burning, the batteries did not[2]:

Observations during the fire indicate that electric vehicles did not contribute to the fire development beyond what is expected from conventional vehicles.

I’ve found Pi to be useful for this. The app has a voice to voice mode that works pretty well. The speech synthesizer has some tone and inflection variability, which makes it feel more like a conversation. The personality can be kinda over enthusiastic, but it’s way better than just a raw voice to text approach.

It’s pretty good for exploring a topic. You have to double check references, but the basic orientation is useful.

Every AI service has an API so it would be easy to write a driver for a headless comment bot that checks comments with AI and then replies or updates a comment based on the API results.

I think bots are against the rules on HN but the implementation would be very easy if the bot didn't get banned.

I think a more effective lever would be giving owners of apartments and other multi-families properties a property tax rebate if they install level 2 chargers. Particularly in cities, the lack of a place to charge your car in your apartment is a huge impediment to adoption. Property taxes are state revenue, but the Federal government could set up a program that makes states whole if they set up such a scheme.
Are we still doing this stupid ass reasoning around FP? Is the CPU really that serial, when it literally reschedules your instructions based on the graph of their interconnections?

Also, just think about all the optimizations your "serial" programming language does -- are your yourself really write all those mutations? Or is that the compiler, that in many cases can do a much better job? Now what if the language's semantics allowed even more freedom for the compiler in exchange for more restrictions on the language? Sure, we still don't have "sufficiently advanced compilers" that would replace programmers, but FP languages absolutely trade blows with most imperative languages in many different kinds of problems. Very visibly when parallelism comes to the picture, as it turns out, a smart parallel-aware data structure will easily beat out their serial counterparts here.
Same. The problem is the current EVs only market certain demographic- status seekers, truck people, and commuters. No decent suvs for real people yet, which is a large untapped demand.
Not really trying to compete with google, more like trying to provide a minority report for the stuff you can't easily find elsewhere.

This answer is incredibly technocratic, and misses the mark on what a digital signature is.

A digital signature is a legal construct that stands up in court.

The movement might have begun, but you need to change your perception. You have to stop talking like a technocrat and address the business problem that signatures solve.
