How do you know?
Mastodon.social is also federated, so will end up doing a lot more work. If anything, you'd expect a totally isolated instance to be cheaper to run.

1. You realize this thread is about EU?

2. 500, even in 1995, is a token amount of money to the representatives. I highly doubt they changed their vote for that little money.
What really blow my mind is that now we need so much energy and be that thankful to the EU for something that should be so basic and obvious.

When you compare how scandalous and impossibly excessive was looking the story of "1984" a few dozen years ago and that now it is the new normal.
In a lot of countries, even democratic ones, we are already far worse than what was described in the book. But very little persons are shocked about that...
I don't know if you are doing that intentionally, but you are completely ignoring the context of the argument, which is advocating of mixing and matching statically generated content and using component based spas only where it's needed.

In the parent coment alone I emphasized that I acknowledge that Facebook as a whole provides more then just a forum, but it's core content inherently doesn't differ much from being one.

Moreover, functionality like notifications or suggestions are inherently server generated, as such they don't require content itself to be served in specific way.
A race to prematurely submit not-yet-released software.
Wouldn't this be the using a VCR for data storage thing that was done way back in the day? The higher resolution would allow for greater data density but this seems like a problem that largely is solved. Just needs a bit of reimplantation for YouTube.
They don't per se, the precursor wave travels through the ground at the speed of sound in whatever medium (usually rock in nevada tests), which is about 5x the speed of sound in air.
I don’t understand how hospitals and insurance are constantly getting away with this nonsense. Even if people are against socialized medicine and free markets, they should at least make sure that there actually is real market where all participants have the necessary information. And hospitals should be forced to follow rules like sending itemized and accurate bills on time. When I worked in the office I often overheard people being on the phone daily for hours to deal with hospital or insurance. They can basically ignore callers without any repercussions.

I don’t understand how this abuse can be accepted.
YouTube to require disclosure when videos include Generative AI
You still own it and can still sell it. There is just a clause in the original bill of sale giving Tesla the right of first refusal at a pre-negotiated price within the first year. You can look at the $50k (or sales windfall) as the cost of breaking the ROFR clause of your original sales contract. Tesla can opt not to buy it and then you can resell it. The “consent” is implicit at that point of their refusal but you and your buyer will want that refusal in writing, so that any subscription or warranty requirements of the vehicle can transfer to the new owner.
Mirroring everything gives me the ability to not just build existing software independently of crates.io outages or decisions, but also to not be impacted in software development by such incidents. To me development involves using packages or package versions I might not have used before.

Of course if your development is already set up in a way that prevents you from easily adding, experimenting with or updating dependencies, maybe because of how the vetting process works, that might not be an issue for you. And many places are completely fine with just being able to build
Sorry, are you saying that winget, chocolatey, and brew are equivalent to the mobile App Store? Because for the average user, that is not remotely true. The App Store is how you install programs on mobile by default. On desktop, however, the default installation process is to download an installer/executable from a website. Only very technically literate people (basically just software developers) will be installing things via winget, chocolatey, or brew
Old folks living "fuller lives" on the Moon, hundreds of thousands of miles away from their grandkids and everybody else they know? Have you ever been to an old folks home? Wishing people visited them more often is most of what most of them talk about.

A sad few with no remaining attachments to the rest of Earth might benefit from a reduced risk of hip fracture, but that hardly seems like a good economic basis for a Moon base.
The empirical evidence suggests a theoretical competing alternative is doing nothing to stop this or other enshittification trends in established markets.
Still not a big improvement for most of the population, maybe a few middle-class hardcore space fans spend their life savings to make 1 trip to space instead of going to some beach resort multiple years in a row. Good for them.
The developer world can be roughly split up into two camps. Those that are developing software for a single tightly specced hardware/OS combo, and those that are developing software that can be installed by as many people as possible. Neither of them are wrong in their respective approach, but those in the first camp won't care about or understand the problems faced by those in the second camp.
Didn't say you could. I said these are among the reasons growth hackers cite in public for side-loading.

I'd be happiest if even payments and subscriptions were still required to go through the customer-centric system Apple set up, the number one dev complaint.

For users, ideally Apple would relax nothing for a side-loaded app, and would maintain a stringent review process for whose certs can authorize apps, and a zero strikes policy for revoking such certs. Unfortunately, some of these will be relaxed.
* AI is good at hard (to human) tasks like explaining complex code but bad at easy (to human) tasks like counting C files in a codebase.
* AI is particularly effective at taking over repetitive work full of toil e.g., reviewing large PRs. As a result, it will allow more developers to focus on fun things like building new features.
* AI will increase the number of developers worldwide because it reduces the barrier to entry for programming.
* AI will reduce the fear involved in starting large-scale projects like migrating codebases from one framework/technology to another.

Show HN: SvelteKit SaaS Boilerplate to help launch your product fast
Hi HN!

I am a indie hacker and love building apps with SvelteKit, so I built a boilerplate with the tech stack I always use.

It has almost everything needed to launch a SaaS/tool/AI app, like auth, db + orm, email, payments and styling.

You can view everything that's included on the website and the docs (https://docs.launchleopard.com)

Would love to hear what other features or tech you'd want to see in a boilerplate like this!
> Russian attacks already having hit EU territory.

On 15 November 2022, a missile struck the territory of Poland at the village of Przewodów near the border with Ukraine, killing two people.[1][2][3] ... It was the first incident of a missile (vis-a-vis prior UAV incursions) fired from Ukrainian army[6] landing and exploding within NATO territory ... Initially Ukraine accused Russia of striking Poland,[9] while United States claimed that the missile was likely to have been an air defence missile fired by Ukrainian forces at an incoming Russian missile.[10][11][12] This was later confirmed in September 2023 by the Polish Prosecutor's Office, which stated that the explosion was caused by an out of control air-defence missile S-300.[6][13]
I tried saying those words in a fixed time (12 seconds) while looking at a clock now, it still does not seem hard. Appears to be easier once you attach parts of the phrase to time offsets, and probably easier yet with a teleprompter.
Fair, I didn't know about this. They are farther ahead than I knew.

But Intelligent Speed Assistance is way more lenient and it is up to the car maker how stringent they are. It can be as little as a beep which should be very easy to wire into a dashboard that already shows the speed. Indeed, this removes a lot of plausible deniability for speeding and arguably really is helpful to the driver.

Standardizing and implementing a limit, however, would take more time and testing. Mistakes could result in dangerous situations.
Exactly, European (aka "the whites", but I don't want to enter into what's white in the US vs rest of the world) had some advantage, they used it, gained more power and as everybody with power does, hold on to it by all their means. And even if rich families or dynasties come and go, the accrued wealth tends to not move too much. And it moves through generations, as you pointed out.
The scientific term is Variable Rate Operant Conditioning. It's where you press a button, have some chance of a reward (winning money or seeing a video you like) and can immediately play again. It's the same mechanism.

From rats on up to humans this is known to be an extremely addictive behavioral pattern. Social media like Tik Tok can perfectly balance how much reward to give you to keep you engaged while filing the non-reward results with ads and other messaging they want you thinking about.
I'd be supportive of this with all social media
"Recruiter" usually refers to a person whose role is sourcing talent. Their responsibilities are more like identifying candidates, salesmanship toward the candidate, and minor filtering that doesn't require too much subject matter expertise (resume review, canned questions with correct/incorrect answers)

"Interviewer", by contrast, is much more often an actual practitioner whose main role is something else (it rarely makes sense to keep a stable of people around who are solid enough engineers to give interviews and not have them do actual engineering).
1) You’re right it’s cheaper than people think.

2) You aren’t going to move the needle much with 5 figures for anything at a national level.

The real work comes when you hire the congressman’s favorite PR firm for X and their cousins polling firm for Y and their former chief of staff for $15k a month retainer and so on. The vast majority of this gets done via “consulting” agreements and public relations firms and law firms, where the nominal work is irrelevant and the relationships and introductions are the product.
"if you must sell the Vehicle within the first year...and Tesla agrees that your reason warrants an exception to its no reseller policy"

I don't own it if the original seller gets to decide if I'm granted an exception to sell it. Note there's no listed criteria for that decision, so it's arbitrary, at Tesla's discretion. All the things you're citing hinge on that exception being granted by Tesla in the first place. There's other problems with the language as well.
They should roll it out in to a separate library. Call it the Blender Toolkit, or BTK.
Analogs systems aren’t about dividing, are they ?
it's stupid to wish a guy to be your ideal hero. hero is to be admired, not worshiped.

>They describe themselves as "overemployed" — and remarkably, they seem to be getting away with it.

As long as they perform the tasks of their jobs, why shouldn't they be "getting away with it"?

It's seems as if the "free market" exists only for the companies and bosses.
My YT shorts algorithm has turned into softcore porn and its truly disgusting
I guess you are talking about Ylva Johansson, who is the spearhead of this. Every time she opens her mouth on this subject any person with knowledge on this subject breaks on the inside a little more, she has no idea what she is trying to do. Or maybe she does and it's all a smokescreen, I don't really know.
But this styling lives in your component file, doesn't it?
So it makes just as much "wall of [code] soup there as it makes it here".
Tailwind was just an example pointing out you don't need a separate your code across entirely different directories, not recommendation of specific technology
> There's no technical solution to that, really.

There is. Theoretically speaking, you could confine libraries to their own sandbox.

But Rust can't do that.
> I don't think there's a topic where lobbying doesn't work to at least some degree.

I wasn't saying lobbying doesn't work at all.
I’m the same way. I like people too but can’t stand to be around them for very long. Especially now that our culture is so vapid and hyper political.
As many HN readers know, the flexibility of startups comes from being able to achieve similar outcomes with different mixes of time, money, and staffing to larger entities.

Just as a thought-exercise for hackers (who delight in solving problems which do not exist* in the real world, especially when they involve artificial constraints), can you figure out some good ways to leave your country assuming that you have (a) almost no time, (b) almost no money, or (c) almost no chance of expecting help —or even neutrality— from strangers?

* at least not now; we left all that behind in the 20th century, right?
"a facade of legality and civility" is literally the point of rule of law. It's why if you detain someone it's a crime, but if the police do it it's normal law enforcement.
Maybe EDRi, which also acts as an umbrella for smaller and local orgs.

> ...that do the same job more efficiently.

I could argue details - but notice that, after battleships were no longer so important, it remained a critical priority for the U.S. Navy to be the "Reigning Superpower" on the world's oceans:

https://www.history.navy.mil/research/library/online-reading...

Vs. how interested was the U.S. Gov't in retaining "can go to the moon" capabilities after Apollo 17 (in Dec'72)? Can you name any post-Apollo, pre-2000 manned-moon-mission NASA programs which received serious funding?
Because Congress won’t fix it.
Haven't written a novel before. I had an idea a few months back and had been taking notes here and there (fantasy genre). I decided to participate, setting myself a 500 words/day goal. Just crossed 12k words and now I'm hoping to end up around 30k at the end of November. If that pans out, I'll push to finish the first draft in December.

My main goal is to have fun and I did feel great a few times, especially when I thought of something clever or spotted a mistake that'd not work with what I had written a few chapters back.
>The key point made there was that it wasn’t even health insurance companies that were the issue, which is what many people assume. Rather it’s the hospitals.

It takes one to now one. Health Insurance tells the hospital what they will pay for servicing their "client". Plus the Insurance Company will tell their Client "we will not pay for your life saving treatment" if they determine it is too expensive. I will not speak to the rates they charge for malpractice insurance.

There is a reason health care is too expensive. Plus I am sure the bonus an Insurance Company CEO gets dwarfs the total of all bonuses people in the non-profit hospital gets.

Try telling this to GitHub customers. Half the world was unable to work in the last GitHub outage. Not to mention NPM.

CPI for all items unchanged in October; shelter up
I've finally managed to complete it in 2021 and 2022. This year is much harder because writing prose causes a lot of hard topics to get brought up from my subconscious into my everyday, but I'm still aiming for 50k this year and not giving up.
The previous commenter is not correct. Parliament votes for its own position on this law, which is then negotiated with the Council ( the 27 national government representatives) which itself has already developed a position. The two institutions negotiate a compromise (wir support from the commission as broker) which then both institutions must vote on in order for it to become EU law. So they can still vote something down later, but generally if it comes to a vote on the final text it is already a position parliament agrees with. In the EU processes laws that are unlikely to be agreed usually don't even get to a vote, rather the commission withdraws it's proposal and provides a new one.
It also allows newcomer startups to exploit the free tier and create a business with only time investment.
Hello, stranger – Talking to random people
While enjoying my fresh wok lunch in Amsterdam, I noticed something odd: other folks coming in for something to eat ignored the person standing at the counter, preferring to order through a digital kiosk. The crazy thing about this? They are just centimetres apart!

In fact, they are so close that the staff member peeks at the display to get a head start on picking the right vegetables – all without any words spoken. Now, I get it: modern technology allows us to be more efficient, but I think I might be witnessing something deeper: we prefer not to talk to each other anymore.

I decided to dive into this and do a little experiment: talk (more often) to strangers.

I made this blog post to tell you about it, give it a try!
Silicon Valley City Wants to Ease Housing Crisis with $150k Cargo Containers

They need to make a video that shows what goes into the modifications of a $6k to $9k container to raise the price to $150k. Plenty of DIY'ers on Youtube modify these things into mini homes for significantly less. Cities have better purchasing power than DIY'ers.
Making more food on less land definitely is.
Nothing beats that truly emotional moment (here at 24:15) when you get something working/fixed/debugged after hours of attempts. Brings a smile to my face every time I see somebody’s cheesy grin!

Brooooo how do you even. I wish I had that time it takes to get this good at Blender. I might actually end up releasing some solid indie games.

Demoscene people are the guys I'm most jealous of. Not some linux kernel maintainer of some fancy filesystem. Nah, but the things that can transport you into an entire new universe in your head.
There are apps like Robot36 that can decode sstv right on your phone. Just holding the phone near the radio's speaker will get you a recognizable image, though not great. I imagine getting the proper cable setup would work quite well.
Not sure if you've seen std::visit or if it's covered in this talk, but it's another triumph of the possible over the sensible using C++ lambdas.
In our case, our use case was we wanted a chat interface into our docs. We provide dour docs, forum, and open source examples as the knowledge from the GPT, via this crawler.

> "It is a very specialised GIS tool, isnt it?"

I wouldn't call it very specialised. Seems like a fairly general tool for visualising and manipulating GeoJSON and similar data? I actually need to create/manipulate a GeoJSON data set myself for a current project, so I think I'll try this out!
Interesting -- this is the first I have heard of it.

The only reference I can find is this:

I will see if I can find out any more.
Resorting to a conspiracy to explain facts you miss the opportunity to construct more precise mental model of engineering. And of economy of these big achievements.

It works this way with any conspiracy. It is you mental model, it is your decision, but it is little sad to watch people choosing ignorance over knowledge.
>I believe _this_ is what everyone has been suggesting someone do about fake DMCA for a while so,

The problem is the "_this_" in this thread's example is a full-blown lawsuit by Google. Yes, this is a change from just blindingly obeying DMCA notices but filing lawsuits is not scalable to apply to all the other frivolous and illegitimate takedown requests. These 2 men just did it in high enough volume to attract the attention of Google's lawyers.

An example of all the other illegitimate DMCA takedowns "flying under the radar"...

A few years ago, I was selling some Total Training DVD tutorials of Adobe products on ebay like these:
https://www.ebay.com/sch/i.html?_nkw=total+training+adobe+cr...

Ebay then mysteriously cancelled my listing after a few days. Why? Because Ebay has a VeRO (Verified Rights Owners) program and Total Training sent a DMCA takedown request to remove my legitimate listing. I then sent a harsh email with my invoice to Total Training that proved I bought the DVDs directly from them so they are not counterfeit pirate copies and warned them not to interfere when I re-listed it. They didn't takedown my listing so I was finally able to sell it. Total Training wasn't really trying to stop piracy; their real intention was to prevent lower-priced used DVDs from competing with the sales of their new DVDs by intimidating sellers on ebay.

That's the type of small-scale DMCA abuse that happens constantly on Ebay, Youtube, Google search results page, etc. Abuse the DMCA to their advantage but not enough to attract lawsuits.

100% agree, I think the 26% will greatly increase over time... or the ones that don't will decline as a business over time.

the 13.4% is likely leaders in ML for some specific use case like fraud or recommendations. it would be great to have access to raw data with anonymized demographics.

is there a probability that these keys will one day be broken, YES. A high probability, with lots of time, YES. Even higher if the values of these early coins/keys are multiples of what they are today, YES.

Again, this is you repeating your claim. Repeating your claim isn't evidence. You haven't given any numbers, explanations, information from expert cryptographers or any external links at all.

Do you understand what evidence is?
I think the question may be:

What significant difference does it make if we put a woman (or woman of color) on the moon first vs putting another white man on the moon. [with modern technology].

Well, they basically wrote their own GUI toolkit. And IMO a very good one, with tiling windows and everything is nicely scaleable. I especially like the command search with space and little things like dragging over a column of checkboxes to toggle them all.
Doesn't work on my Firefox either. Brought me to the real site. I do have all privacy options on, and ublock Origin. So maybe something just deleted the referrer. Or it got deleted because it points to google (I have google container on).
