I don't think I'd be comfortable with it having elaborate editing functionality. PDF editing in a browser is finicky, and an enormous bug fest.

I do PDF editing offline, on the desktop, then re-upload to paperless. Not the most integrated flow, but much more bulletproof. I want the PDFs themselves to be immutable once on paperless. Only metadata should be editable.

While it is important for cars to have speedometers so that drivers can learn to judge their speed, with a little bit of caution, a journey during which the speedometer fails can be completed both safely and within speed limits.
> They don't make anywhere close to $10 a month selling ads to a user.

This is somewhat incorrect. In Europe (which this is about), Facebook's average revenue per user is about $70 per year (~$6/mo), and in the US it's around $232 (~$19/mo). Taking into account the additional overhead of collecting payments from individual users, support, etc., it's definitely not orders of magnitude away.

Very cool.

When it mentions a bare metal kernel, I thought about the BareMetal OS by ReturnInfinity: https://github.com/ReturnInfinity/BareMetal-OS
Big use cases can be overkill, but I like to take on the small things as automation projects. Easy one - if everyone has left my house for a time, turn off all the lights. If we have left but the dog is home and the sun sets, turn on a few lights for her (my dog has a wifi collar). If I arrive home after dark and open the garage door, turn on the mudroom lights so I don't walk in to a dark house, then turn it back off 10 minutes later when I forget. I've left town before and had to let my parents in my house, and it was nice to be able to let them in without a key, and see that it was them on a camera. Then there are the fun ones, like setting the lights or closing blinds when I start a movie.

I'm glad you enjoy maintaining a wood stove. I like asking my house to turn things on and off when my hands are full, or automating my bad habits and forgetfulness away.
Is it possible to just create a crate with this implementation and encourage its usage?
This is my main concern. These lenses are much more obvious than the Google Lense cameras as well. I'd love to use some cool tech like this but I can absolutely see some people seeing the lenses and being confrontational and trying to act like you are purposefully filming them, or their kids... or something along those lines. Yes, it is legal to film in public but I'm not trying to have those sorts of confrontational interactions.

I don't have an iPhone, but on Android there is the "Paperless Mobile" app (https://github.com/astubenbord/paperless-mobile), which can be used to scan as well. There are just some documents that I would prefer to have in proper and consistent "document scanner"-quality; I am always having a hard time with lighting using those phone scanners (although Paperless Mobile is one of the better ones I have used).

Luxury of web dev?! I'm not sure I agree it's luxurious.
How is losing $62,000 a year per unit "basic economics" or a sustainable way for any company to run? Just because you don't like the externalities doesn't mean every company producing them ought to go bankrupt. What if we applied these same rules to the software industry? Meta should operate at a loss until they cease to exist. Any company that has ever done anything bad should just hand over all it's assets to the government and then fold, in whatever world you seem to be describing.

There's a project called "wmonad" on GitHub, but it's actually another X11 window manager, no relation to Wayland.

There was the Waymonad project, but AFAIK it was never usable and is now abandoned (last commit 4 years ago).

The main use of raw pointers in practical standard C++ is that they still don't have an analogue of Option<&T> so raw pointers (which can be null) let you write analogous code albeit in a less friendly way.

But this isn't so much like C, where raw pointers often express ownership.

You aren't going to really learn "everything" in C++ anyway, regardless of how you approach it, the language is a vast sprawling mess, the fact somebody wrote a serious book just about initialization [https://leanpub.com/cppinitbook] in C++ gestures at the problem. Freeing themselves of the need to have a language which is well-defined, or which can be demonstrated to be sound, or really follow any principles whatsoever was doubtless briefly convenient but the result is unmaintainable nonsense.
Drop it. After all the shit they pulled last year (no oss server code anymore, killing bridges, bugged clients) and hiring a PR person you just know they are going for entshitification. I wonder if they will recognize that their commercial offerings are just not up to spec.
I think that’s how Large Language Models manage to be somewhat useful: most things one would ask have been asked and answered many times, and the LLM fishes those instances out, blends them toghether and delivers the result.
Much more effective than scrolling through endles partial search results.
If you want to jump to the conversation/replies to the OP's multi-post, this is a lot less scrolling than if each part of the OP's multi-post was automatically expanded. There's an advantage of the setup for you. This might be desirable as it could encourage participating in the conversation, though an argument can be made that it comes with a risk of people skipping the content and joining the conversation with incomplete context.

The fade effect on the line of text shown is in line with how "click to show more" is done in many places all over the web. It took me a thoroughly minimal amount of mental capacity to realize there was more. I clicked, and got more. It's really not that confusing.
How John Riccitiello kept the top job for so long is a mystery. This acquisition never made sense.
> I cannot understand why a billionaire will work until the age of 99..

It's that insane obsession with collecting more of what they love: $$$.
We don't have scarcity… what we have is uneven distribution of resources.
> But on the other hand, like, why not solder at 82 (Lead)?

Two reasons: (1) solder largely doesn't contain lead anymore. It's been completely banned from plumbing solder in most countries, and its use in electrical solder is rapidly declining. (2) As you say, I valued different things than you apparently would. Solder in that position would not connect meaningfully with other heat-related tools, which otherwise form a nice column. I did that for copper and copper alone because there are such a large and attractive variety of brass and bronze tools it was just too good of a category to pass up, and because having a skipped beat in the cutting tools seemed like a good idea. (Four sets of ten cutting tools in a row could get monotonous in the book, so each row is broken up a bit, for flow reasons).

> Also I am pretty sure even-sized wrenches (hex in particular) is a reference to 6-member carbon rings, very appropriate.

Oh My God. Believe it or not, the fact that even-sided wrenches are in the carbon space, and that the image prominently features the one wrench I have that looks most like a benzene ring, is completely accidental. I absolutely did not plan it that way. Thank you for pointing out how brilliant even my subconscious mind must be.

> You could fill halogens exclusively with welding processes.

It comes down to page counts. Choosing 118 categories isn't just to arbitrarily make it fit the periodic table, but also to very non-arbitrarily make it fit the page count my publisher aims for in all of my books (this being #6 in the same visual style). Sure, there could have been a few more or a few less, but 118 plus introduction/conclusion is a good fit, and so why not make it exactly fit the table format? Splitting up welding would have required dropping other things, and on balance I made the decision that all welding has to fit on one page.

> I don't think about it in terms of shape, count, or location even.

Here is where we get into fun vs. deep meaning. The iconic shape of the real periodic table is one of the most recognizable shapes in the world. It's like the Nike logo, the atom symbol, an apple with a bite out of it, etc. It's a shape billions of people recognize. When you take that specific shape, and none other, and repurpose it into a classification of something else, it creates the momentary dissonance that is the essence of humor. Periodic Table of Tools is of course not nearly as funny as the classic Periodic Table of Vegetables, but it's way funnier than the Well Organized and Sensible Classification Table of Tools. Fun sells.

I appreciate your appreciation of how hard this is. It is not until you start actually trying to create a real, specific arrangement of actual tools that you see all the subtle issues. Believe me, if you came up with your own periodic table of tools, you too would end up with compromises and inconsistencies that would get you sniped at on hackernews.
Cool to see this Avikalp!
There was also IMP/Horde and these days we have rainloop too.
I have an expectation that people I'm speaking with aren't filming me without making it clear that they're doing so. Anyone doing otherwise I consider a creep and would rather not interact with.

I wish paperless-ngx included native advertising to printers for the "Sent to PC" feature.

The players deploying robotaxi right now are entering a market that resembles shared micromobility(scooter, e-bike) - what they need is not just vehicles, but to get on the side of the appropriate regulatory bodies and to get eyeballs on the product. It's a fight won one city at a time, and it favors partnering with companies like Uber that have built experience in both of those aspects.

This is a fight that Tesla doesn't seem to be engaged with - it's staying on the manufacturing side of the issue. Its opponents are going to see this as a gun they can fire to shut out Tesla's supply-centric economics: install regulations on robotaxi - vehicle form factor, signals, testing - that make it impossible for anyone but a well-capitalized player to enter. Then it doesn't matter how cheap the vehicle gets if the other costs required to operate legally keep small players out.

Tesla's recourse in this market is to either sell a commodity product that passes regulation, which is terrible for their bottom line, or to become a robotaxi company themselves, which is not unfeasible(they have the Supercharger network, they can grow more vertically) but which they aren't currently aimed for. If they did that the fast path would be to find a ridehail partner and acquire them.

I believe in the robotaxi concept, but I don't think it's settled as to what form it ultimately takes.
Things started going downhill when the physical controls became indistinguishable by touch.
I guess I was wrong about that. I remember reading years ago how shockingly little revenue targeted ads actually generate per user, but that must have changed. Also curious why FB is making 3x as much per user in the US vs Europe.

Ok, so how long have you had these? I also was unaware they had released these but they look pretty fun AND the price point is surprisingly approachable.

Are you wearing these out in public pretty regularly? Are people noticing the lenses? My main concern with buying these is that I will end up not wearing them in public eventually, which kind of makes them not super useful. I worry about that because I can see some people seeing those lenses and going off on the whole bit about am I filming them? am I filming their kids? And we all now the rabbit hole of uncomfortable public social iteractions this can take one down. So, I worry I would run into too many of these people downtown or something and end up being anxious about even wearing them out anywhere.

What is your experience and how long have you been wearing them around in public (if you are)?
If you read any news in Ukraine you would know that. I'm Ukrainian and everyone in Ukraine who isn't a russian supporter shares my opinion. Some Ukrainian singers live and work in russia, most stopped going there after 2014, even more after 2022. It's you who doesn't seem to have any idea what you're talking about. Ukrainians and russians do hate each other now. russians celebrate the killing of Ukrainian civillians, and almost every Ukrainian hates them. Belarussians are different, most of the don't support russia and lukashenko.
Ahhhh... This brings back sweet memories of a music theory/practical harp, grad student that I used to date. She was always able to instantly play any pop songs I requested as harp arrangements; watching someone truly play an instrument as if from feeling is magical.
But I really feel like guitar playing is a different beast all together. There is no other instrument with the amount of "players" that the guitar has, ranging from low skill to high. But in general, I've watched multiple people teach themself up to a level where they can go no further on their own. Then you take your learning on a specific path. Classical training if you want to end up as a studio musician or composer; non classical if you want to be the guitarist in a moderately successful hardcore band. (Does playing Warp Tour make you a success?)
That's what happened to the three best guitarists I've known, and I suppose my point is this: GP can, and should, skip the not-so-fun stuff for the time being. Guitar is unlike other mainstream instruments, and simply playing is the best way to improve (even if it means developing bad habit)
How does this apply to a discussion about the logged out view?
Noyb has a very good tracking of succeeding with their efforts, as they take pragmatic down-to-the-letter-of-law approach.

They are not activists (there's other orgs for that, like Irish Council for Civil Liberties, which takes much more aggressive approach to privacy rights. Them undertaking these efforts means that it's very likely they'll succeed.

GDPR legal text quite clearly establishes that consent must be freely given. Ultimatums (pay or else) aren't freely given. Also, Meta used their primary color (blue) in the UI modal for "consent" or pay to highlight the "consent". They just can't but not build the case against themselves -- using manipulative UI patterns (priming) to get the choice they want.
There's a pretty enormous gulf between what you did and nothing (also it sound like you went a bit wild with home automation). I think you'd be doing your due diligence by just providing a list of products littered around the house, without also spending dozens of hours.

Not quite sure my statement and yours must be at odds. There is a diplomatic solution to all wars. Likewise, there is virtually always a political reason for every war. If those in power wished, war could be avoided in nearly every situation.

That said the evil, greed, and/or anger of our leaders ensures wars will always be around. But I don't have to participate in them. In the face of an equal force, I'm happy to stand my ground. In the face of an overwhelming force, I am not too proud to flee.
Yep, it's an example of whataboutism.

No. The shootdown of KAL 007 took place at night. There was no possible way to identify the aircraft other than via the lights coming out of the windows. A militarized 747 is called an E-4[0]. A militarized 707 is variously called an E-3 (some are AWACS) [1], KC-135 (a now-retired refueling aircraft) [2], or an EC-135 (electronic warfare equipped 707) [3].

The wikipedia page for the shootdown incident [4] lists the time as 1349 GMT. Most readers will go "they shot it down just before 2PM" instead of realizing that the location was 12 hours ahead of GMT. During the time of the USSR, Vladivostok used Moscow time, even though they are 11 timezones ahead.

As an idea, and an ideal, it's hard to seriously criticize EA. Sone pretty shady people have done really unethical things while claiming it as a rationale, but I don't understand how that's supposed to convince me that "most good for the least cost" should be anything other than a North star for moral action.
I'm curious, have you ever gone to any EA meetups or interacted with these people in person, or is all of this just based on a certain pattern of blinking pixels on one of your devices?

The analog speedometer it replaced has been digital behind the scenes for ages. The cluster is just sat on a CAN (or similar) bus and controlling a servo for the analog gauge. The pure digital speedometer is significantly less failure prone (and indeed when it does fail, it’s obvious).

Hey neat - I once destroyed a $5000 prototype disk drive (I was a Firmware engineer at Quantum in the late 1990s at my first post-college job), also with back-EMF (it flowed from the braking spindle motor into a power chip and melted the circuit board). I felt terrible and that was multiple orders of magnitude cheaper. :)
I have been revisiting Godot this past week after feeling that I didn't give it a fair shake a few months ago.

I don't know that Unity has a future. Unity is still better than Godot, and in some ways by a wide margin, but Godot is gaining ground fast, the learning/tooling ecosystem has exploded in the last several months, and for most "indie" projects, which Unity's pricing change was targeting, Godot is the better choice. It might be the best open source tool I've ever worked with.

Unity is going to either need to position itself at the top of the productivity curve between Unreal's raw power and Godot's "Blenderyness," or it's going to have to become a more mature ecosystem that caters to bigger games (which might be harder after the brand damage). Godot is going to become better, faster in the next 18-24 months.

Effective altruism is the result of not teaching STEM majors enough classics and philosophy.
