Hey, you don't need to bash pgadmin that hard. I also have issues with it, but it's not really worse than that much other software.

It even seems nicer than some other software in some aspects - it can actually be surprisingly and refreshingly fast (once loaded) and interactions I don't expect to work often enough actually do (like editing displayed values).

Sure, it could be more intuitive. But it's not all that bad.

What's the Future of Unified Cloud Storage?
Hey, HN community!

As we increasingly ascend to the cloud, the amount of data multiplying across different cloud storage providers is staggering. It got me wondering: Where are we at the stage of Unified Cloud Storage? And where do we see this technology advancing? From Dropbox to Google Drive, from AWS S3 to Azure... we all have got data spread across so many different platforms. While they're all fantastic in their specific domains, managing multiple interfaces, protocols and credentials can become a bit cumbersome. I dreamt of a single unified interface from where I could connect and manage multiple cloud providers seamlessly. A central hub that makes things easier, quicker, more efficient. I am definitely attracted to this idea and am exploring the concept of a multi-cloud storage management solution. But I would love to hear your thoughts. 1. Do you personally see a need for a unified cloud storage interface? 2. What challenges do you face managing multiple cloud storage providers? 3. Which features would you find most useful in a unified solution for cloud storage? Your experiences, insights, and ideas regarding such a tool would be invaluable! Look forward to hearing your thoughts!

Of course, and there's a lot to like about Alexander's approach. Though while designers may lean heavily one way at first, maybe they could also sample the perspective of the actual thousands of people who will occupy the space before construction starts? Priors are just that: priors. They are meant to be updated to posteriors, whether by an individual, or whether by thousands of people. Sometimes the update will be minimal no matter what sub-population you sample, which is a good sign something is actually deep and inescapable, but sometimes it will be rather large because even thousands of people can share a few specific characteristics not so prevalent in a random general population sample where the prior came from and which absolutely affect what feels habitable to them.

e.g. Active college students, so also mostly young, mostly unmarried, freshly liberated from the parental household.. And of course the main activities of the building and its rooms, like sleep vs work, should be considered more strongly before applying a general pattern. I don't mean to assert that form should always follow function, though, or that architects don't already consider inescapable tradeoffs, which by their nature some people won't like the decisions because they would have traded differently all else equal.

On a tangent, I was reminded of a funny architecture crime. CS students at MIT got a wacky Gehry building (the Stata Center) while the architects have and keep a very normal and tasteful building (the Rogers Building). Gehry was even sued at some point because the building had functional issues. That goes back to the point about windows: frequently it's actually not enough to just block a window. They change the environment more than just letting in light or not, they affect things like temperature (sometimes for the better! Ability to open one for a breeze or window AC is a blessing in many rooms), humidity, structural soundness, and ease of mold growth. When you have a window or two in the bedroom that you block out, it still affects where you can place things because of those other concerns.
Wow. That's more than 7% of global output.

.. there are fertile mules. Rare, but they exist.
Absolutely. I’m “surprised” by every new plot point in every book.
I don’t think that’s a problem - more like it’s under-appreciated how smart it is. A lot of hardware enthusiasts like to talk about raw capabilities but you can end up with something like the Cell processor if you aren’t careful to make sure those features are used. This is where Apple’s approach is an interesting long-term play: they have been pushing things like the Accelerate framework since the PowerPC days (when you could see e.g. MATLAB get big performance wins simply by dropping in a new BLAS library to replace the unoptimized one it shipped with) and now they’re in the unusual position of being able to line everything up on the same release schedule, too. Sun could have done that on paper but their hardware was rarely competitive and they bit off more than they could chew trying to reinvent every concept of computing portably in Java, and Microsoft has always suffered from being downstream of Intel’s decisions.
I believe you may be using a vernacular definition where others are using a technical definition from economics.

In this context "scarcity" does not mean "There is not enough stuff", though that can be implied. It means there is a fundamentally limited amount of stuff and the aggregate demand is greater than the aggregate supply.

Given that the demand for resources is functionally infinite, I think this is basically accurate. Your objection to the existence of rich people is an objection to part of the aggregate demand, rather than to the description of resources as scarce.
> But displacing 1.7 million people[3] is disproportionate.

Firstly, you fight to win, not to be proportionate. If the Americans were proportionate in WW2 they would never have invaded Nazi Germany because the Nazis never invaded the USA.

Secondly, displacing people is so they don't die. Apparently you'd prefer them to be human shields.
The use of the phrase “tragedy of the canon” does highlight the author’s concerns. I sent this article to Dr. John Bickle, a philosopher of neuroscience, to review.

If you know it's being delivered through USPS, have it delivered to 'general delivery'[1]. Problem is Amazon and many others don't let you choose your shipper and most post offices (reasonably so) don't accept general delivery from 3rd party carriers.

Alternatively, ship it to a UPS store that offers 'Package Acceptance' service. They charge per-package - usually $5-$7 though I've seen some as high as $15. Or you could open a UPS POBox if you receive enough packages to make it worth the cost.

> The idea of paying for use instead of data collection is a good one.

This is not what this is.

It's paying or seeing ads. Tracking is done anyway. For the ads they do still sell on other platforms.

What should really be the case is to have untracked ads as an option instead of targeted ones.
While they are, everyone else is allowed to ignore them doing this, particularly when it's silly. For instance, there was a period of about 18 months in the early noughties when the Royal Mail (the UK post office) changed its name to Consignia. Everyone sensibly ignored this, and they quietly changed it back.

The first few years of this century were _weird_.

The left scroll wheel can: play/pause/next/previous/vol up/down in Normal mode

If you press the wiper button on the steering wheel it can change wiper speed

Long press is a custom function

When there's a call it answers/declines, mute/unmute, and ends a call

The right one actives autosteer/tacc/fsd, adjusts follow distance and max speed

There's 3 buttons for left/right/high beam on the left, and on the right, buttons for wiper mode, voice, rear camera, and in the middle, horn.

Not sure I need a button for steering wheel tilt, should only be when stopped. Also do I change gear so often I need a dedicated stalk? It's not a manual car. Direction/park is only done when stopped too.

Talking about preferences I hate motion sensor lights I usually rather to walk in dark and get my eyes used to darkness. I still turn on lights when I get to bathroom or I get a glass of water in the end but somehow it feels better if I turn it on at the destination.

Other thing is I hade all kinds of status LEDs - it is just insane with the bright ones. I know it is nice for quick troubleshooting during the day to know if the internet is on or not - but in the middle of the night they should be lowest brightness on all appliances or turned off. But not all vendors provide the option.

But why is it that musical awareness of what you're actually playing on the instrument has to be the "not so fun" part, compared to just mechanically following some existing tab? I would dispute that point. I would also dispute the notion that "the guitar is too unlike" other instrument families and standard learning methods cannot possibly be applied to it.
There is also the problem that you would pay them per month to not see ads and then they would still collect data on you and sell it. Where is this idea coming from that they are going to stop data collection just because you pay them to stop serving you ads?

Your first sentence betrays lack of familiarity with EA. It is offensive to me that you state it as fact.

EA started as a continuation of Peter Singer's argument in "Famine, Affluence, and Morality" (1972), as a progression after the founding of Giving What We Can (thousands of people giving at least 10% of their pre-tax income to cost-effective charities).

Why public Slack chats are better than direct messages (2019)
If that's a bug that only happens with AMD CPUs, I think that's totally fair.

If we start adding in exceptions at the top of the software stack for individuals failures of specific CPUs/vendors, that seems like a strong regression from where we are today in terms of ergonomics of writing performance-critical software. We can't be writing individual code for each N x M x O x P combination of hardware + software + workload + configuration (even if you can narrow down the "relevant" ones).

I like this direction. But the passage talks about the ease of doing so.

I suspect this is why "post-scarcity" is generally used to describe a state of affairs that does not currently exist, such as the idyllic Federation in Star Trek. In this context it was used to describe a society fundamentally different in significant ways from any past or present human one.

I don't know if I agree that post-scarcity cannot exist. I know that imagining a way to get there is very challenging. Knowing that scarcity is real certainly informs my politics, though.

Yeah I’ve always been suspect of these critiques of Teslas UI. Besides the climate control you don’t really need to tap on the tablet for anything critical to driving WHILE driving. At least that was my experience in my brief experience with a 3.

I’d still add maybe another physical dial for stuff like climate, maybe even make them programmable. But that’s for convenience.

I find the rare times you need to use xdrive on BMWs which is a physical dial + a few buttons just as distracting as using a tablet while driving.

Syncthing is great, and I use it at home. For a robust multi-user alternative to Dropbox (or *cloud), I can also recommend Seafile. I replaced Dropbox with a self-hosted version of Seafile and have never looked back. Also, for a fantastic mail server solution with a great webmail client, look at Axigen. Their free version is more than enough for a personal server, and you can use Amazon SES for outbound mail to avoid reputation issues. I host mine at Linode and love it. If you have a business need or are larger than the limits of the free version, their license costs are quite reasonable.

If there’s any lesson I’d draw from this, it’s that trademark law should have high barriers to claims for generic names. If you want total control, invent a new word.

Germany is not the US. We are not energy independent. In fact, we are not independent of anything other then water maybe.

Germany is reliant on exports. Tariffs are not helpful there. If you can’t manufacture a product at competitive prices on the world market, Germany has no real business in manufacturing anything anymore unless in a war economy.

As a leading economy in the EU you might have the means to stretch that out for some time, but ultimately this makes matters worse in the end.

Germany is currently trying to subsidize what remains of the industry at the cost of consumers. This is already causing substantial backlash from consumers, voters and even the federal courts. Good luck with all of that.
