> But many customers lose out, because they're selecting distributions that don't offer this service, because it is time consuming and difficult to do.

Sure, but if they really need that service they will gravitate to distributions that do provide it, so, I think, no harm done here. It's to me like JDK distributions. Some give you six month, some give free LTS and others give you LTS with a support contract. LTS with backports is work, someone has to pay for it, so let those who really need it pay. Everyone else can enjoy the new features.

tl;dr: I'm with you in the camp that you can leave it to the distributors.
Does Confirmation of Payee even exist outside the UK? Even if it did exist within other countries, I highly doubt there is international integration.
I had exactly the same experience and just skimmed the comments for a mention of this before posting..

Pretty cynical from my side.

But re: Kraftwerk: that tune is pretty good IMO! I like the original as well as the 90s remix and discovered both of them as a kid. The soothing ethereal synth melodies and the scary theme of the title go so well together, eerily.
Title makes it sound too much like Valve is making the decision and that it's not a Mac-only thing. Apple is who chose to end 32-bit support.

Thabks for that. I've not been paying attention - the major labels have all sold (almost all) their stakes over the last few years.
What did they do before DoorDash?
I've never really gotten this. We can speculate about the intelligence of VCs, but I assume most of them know a bit of basic math. I wonder if perhaps they are so deep into a bubble of wealth and privilege that to them, spending $50 for a (cold by the time it arrives) burger seemed reasonable. Perhaps they thought that once everyone could experience this for an amount of money they find trifling, it would catch on?

I've used these services a time or two just to see what the fuss is about and I don't get it myself.
Spotify is largely owned by those businesses, that was part of the deal to get them to even open their catalog
I should add: this is one aspect of what it does. The "ring buffer" is a powerful mechanism that allows retrieval of historical telemetry on demand. So the product is about real time control of telemetry coupled with the ability to retrieve historical data based on more recent conditions.
I think it should be illegal to ask for a variable tip before a service is substantially completed. Go ahead and charge a fixed gratuity, but prepaying tips is silly.
Yes - why are some many strangely dissatisfied with the obvious way to deploy panels - it's just too simple? Panels are cheap, steel frames are cheap and there's plenty of cheap land available. And such a set-up is very cheap and easy to install and maintain.

Why the need to add complexity? Putting panels onto domestic rooftops, trying to construct roadways with panels, floating panels on bodies of water, adding tracking mechanics, adding active cooling systems, etc. - all increase installation and maintenance costs and decrease reliability and simplicity. I just don't see what the problems are that these efforts are trying to solve.
I think you _could_ reclaim your own domain if you wanted. You'd want to have a banner at the top with a clear note directing people to the new domain for the compiler explorer, so that people realize immediately that you're not domain squatting. A few people might put up a stink, but I'm pretty confident that most people wouldn't mind, especially since the tool itself is so useful. The name, for those who don't know it as your last name, is fun, but it isn't the reason people use the tool. Eventually, over enough time, people would start remembering the new URL, and you could shrink or remove the banner (and/or put a note elsewhere on the page).
Just call it Twitter. Let's deny Elon the pleasure ;-)
So the suffering of the sick and disabled is of higher value (by some measure) than that of DoorDash gig workers? Why not both? DoorDash can have less profits, and government can provide some support, and everyone comes out ahead except shareholders getting a bit less return (oh noes) and management having lower comp (again, oh noes). These are the people doing the actual work.

You are pitting the wrong socioeconomic strata against each other via your argument.
The cost of an employee is significantly more than their TC. It's a function of many resources, including compensation, hardware, space (real estate), corporate services, software licenses, taxes, etc.

I developed a Telegram bot [1] that allows users to save text messages on Google Sheets, including simple text parsing to arrange the content into columns. Upon signup I automatically create a spreadsheet for the user so that they can start using the bot right away, but they can also change it to a personal spreadsheet later. And of course multiple users can add to the same spreadsheet if they know the link. Note that the bot uses a local SQLite for its own data.

Technology-wise it is just a Java app running on my raspberry and using Google's libraries for Drive [2] to create the spreadsheets and the actual Sheet API [3] to modify content. Authentication was a bit hard to figure out mostly because of the poor documentation. Each query to these APIs takes about one second, so it is definitely not suitable if you require low latency on the client's side or lots of concurrent accesses to the same spreadsheet. Not sure about pricing since my bot is not so popular and I am still in the free tier (:

I actually wonder if in the limit of video encoding we could just get a diffusion model that can in real time render realistic video based on a script. Then downloading a movie is just downloading a few megabytes of a prompt and you get a movie playing based off it locally.

>It would be trivial to write a backend that oauths with dropbox/github/etc and sync data through it, but there's little point in doing so

I don't know what your project is, but on any given day I'm switching between three laptops (one OSX, one Linux, one Windows), an iPad, and my iPhone. Localstorage is really great for prototyping but doesn't sync between machines. Export is ok, but sync is awesome. Plus having access to the raw data, for me, can be really beneficial for integrating with local tools. For example, I believe I once had a Python script that could parse out specific attributes out of a Drawio document; I wish I could remember more details from that.
It is not overstating the case, I don't think. Large security teams have done population-level studies on this. You feel like "freedom means users can be phished". That's fine, private companies are going to make different choices on the freedom/security spectrum than you'd prefer.
Not sure why you got downvoted, its true. These platforms are all a race to the bottom to capture market share and then jack up of prices to recover lost revenue. Overall, it ends up being a terrible experience for the customer and the driver/deliverer.
Character amnesia is a unique phenomenon to hanzi/kanji and is absolutely incomparable to English and French orthography. Native Chinese and Japanese speakers learn characters largely through muscle memory, which deteriorates rapidly if you don’t regularly write by hand. Many university-educated adults are unable to write a supermaket shopping list without hesitation.[1] Conversely, in English I learn difficult spellings (Gloucestershire, syzygy, rhythm) by aural-mnemonic tricks which stick around in my memory essentially forever.

Whether this had any effect in this study, I don’t know, but it certainly seems relevant that the experience of writing by hand in Japanese is utterly different to any alphabetic script.

The basic concept of food delivery existed long before tech and VC and was viable.

The irony of this comment coming from a 4 day old account with nothing but baseless shrieking.
Oh wow, this is actually interesting.

Out of curiosity, do you happen to know whether the threshold for hiding the full tip amount is based on a percentage of the total order cost or if it is just a flat number? I.e., “anything over $6 gets truncated to $6+” vs. “anything over 20% of the order gets truncated to ${total_order_cost*0.2}+”.

Or could it be based off the 3 pre-selected options for the tip that are displayed at the checkout page, and if it is more than the largest option, then it just shows `${largest_predefined_tip_option}+ `?

My personal guess is that it is the last one, but that’s just pure speculation on my part here, hence the question.

Sure. But that’s because Nintendo’s flagship products are the draw to Nintendo’s platform. But nintendo would surely love to sell you “Among Us” on the Xbox.

Nintendo is a weird company either way. Not the same business model as what is being discussed.

Other game companies all operate their walled gardens to protect and promote their safe software revenues. The real competitor that would make them quiver in fear is steam on Xbox.
As a former PhD student who made $28k (which was on the higher end, most made $20k) I’d always known there were better paying jobs out there.

Unfortunately I have no source to give. The FBI employee was just giving an example of illegal behavior he knew of. He didn't cite jurisdiction or the names of people involved. Hell - even if he did, I likely wouldn't have remembered it as this was roughly 8 years ago I was in the audience for this (I know I said roughly a decade ago in my prior post - but I checked a receipt for the event and it was in 2015).
Accessing password hashes already in a DB is not the same as preventing, during account creation, the reuse of a password known to be compromised.

The Open Web Application Security Project's Application Security Verification Standard recommends that you do a hashed password check [2].

For bigger companies, sure, go talk to legal, but for young startups, my feeling is it's not worth the $200 or whatever your counsel will charge to say it's ok. I personally did not ask anyone (am cto), I just added the check.

Depending on what the data format is, it's also a hedge against product obsolescence. If it's a JSON file that gets stored in my Dropbox and your product goes away I can still extract my data out of it and do something useful with it.
Proprietary apps are allowed to play podcasts. Audio that's only available within the ringfence of those proprietary apps is not. If it's not published as a digital file that I can get my hands on to play, save a copy, transcode, and sync to any of the devices under my control how I want, then it's not a podcast. Podcasts are about user control—over when they listen to it, where they listen to it, and how they listen to it. If you violate any one of these you're not talking about a podcast. You may be operating a successful platform, and you may have a billion marketing schmucks bandying the word around, and you may have a gajillion people with a fuzzy idea in their heads of what a podcast is and who are comfortable playing along, but it doesn't change what a podcast fundamentally is.

Ask HN: Where do the smartest people you know work?
I was cruising LinkedIn this afternoon trying to find the name of someone I interviewed about a decade ago. Of course, he's moved across the country and now works at Microsoft.

Which put a thought into my head: A lot of smart people I know work at startups, but all of the smartest people I know work at FAANG/MAMAA. In fact, none of the smartest people I know, to my knowledge, have ever pursued a startup.

Does this ring true for you as well?
The VCs are hoping to hype the product enough in the early stage to achieve a lucrative exit, and do that 10% of the time(or whatever). What happens with the product once the company is public is not of their concern.
Jobs can ask if you have ever been arrested outside of CA. (Note: not convicted of a crime).

Also you are going to spend a long time being arrested before the appeal goes out.

"In California, a criminal appeal can take several months to several years. The length of time depends on the complexity of the case and how quickly it moves through the appeals process."
Right, of course there is always compromise. But this compromise is made by a third party authority with NO business interest: The authoritarian government. This type of compromise is unbiased and that's why it's able to move faster and be more effective. And like you said, public opinion can be shifted via propaganda and manipulation towards more environmentally positive outcomes.

In the US compromise is different. Compromise is active corporate entities with zero interest in the environment trying to further their own self serving goals. When two people are debating with each other they use any means necessary to stop the other party which usually results in a a standstill outcome where nothing is changed. You can see why it's less effective. Additionally, because of freedom of the press propaganda, from both sides can influence public opinion which leads to division of opinion.
That's a somewhat outdated narrative to still be parroting.

Not that easily! The UK felt compelled to (re)build its own, independent nuclear capability after WWII when the Americans cut off technology sharing from the Manhattan Project.

This was especially annoying from an ally which had learned much of the foundation essential to the endeavour from British Tube Alloys research.

France saw this happen and drew a very similar conclusion.
I personally feel like outsourced delivery for hot food orders at peak hours is a flawed idea. I've used Grubhub and it seems like they try to group deliveries. In my situation, I had a driver pick up my food only to drive it around down and deliver it to me 40 minutes later. If I order from a place and they don't have a driver on staff, I won't order delivery.

As an industry, we need to get back to having security releases separate from other sorts of releases. There are tons of people who don't want to, or can't, take every feature release that comes down the pike (particularly since feature updates happen so insanely often these days), and this would be a huge win for them.
What you are suggesting is comparing "your left foot with your right ear". It makes not much sense to compare podcasters across platforms by pure numbers. Precisely because the platform itself can hugely skew the numbers. Obvious example: Ninja and Mixer.

for those keeping up with Django’s async story the biggest updates with Django 5.0 are:

> a race to the bottom to capture market share

That is the real problem, not that the concept of food delivery is unprofitable by itself.
CA commission says Cruise withheld data about parking atop of a pedestrian
Agreed. Food delivery is a luxury that should only be afforded to the wealthy. There are far too many delivery drivers serving low income areas. We must price out those neighbourhoods immediately.
They can keep it. I refuse to bribe someone to deliver my food with a tip, before. I'm not even going to get into when a driver eats the meal, you have zero recourse, in practical terms.

I'm done with companies not only charging more, but requiring that I assist them AGAIN with payroll.

Fucking pay an actual wage or fuck off.
Over the last decade, income disparity has increased dramatically (and correspondingly, cost of living and housing). The poorest 10% barely saw an increase in income, before considering the negative impact of inflation. The top 10% saw their income almost double during the same period. And since much of this had to do with high tech companies setting up shop in an already-full region, cost of housing went up dramatically.

One might ask why all these companies moved into SF, especially into areas known to have more "progressive" leadership, but that's a different topic.

As for rubber hoses, that would be met by large numbers of angry people - many of whom would arm themselves in some way (including guns). Would you then propose just firing live ammunition into crowds as a solution? These types of solutions are like cutting off a limb because of a skin rash; usually that's not the right answer. If you think street drug people are bad for business, just imagine frequent street gun battles.

And driving the people to the city limits and dumping them? We already have evidence that the more organized property criminals are driving in from outside the city. Obviously they can't afford to live in the city anyway.
There is a keyboard and mouse attached to the server already, but few if any services run, and if they do they're fairly locked down, or in some degraded state.

It's not a server I need to access often in this way. But I think these necessary-but-limited-use scenarios will be interesting should passkeys really catch on like passwords did.
Poor people can't afford luxuries. It is an unfortunate truth. Having another human do something for you requires you be able to afford their labor. Sometimes we subsidize if you cannot afford it (healthcare). Sometimes we don't (fast food delivery). If you believe you're entitled to undervaluing someone else's labor below a living wage while being poor yourself, can't help that. Belief systems are weird.
It's only the time between accepting a delivery and finishing it. Time spent waiting for a new delivery offer is not paid.

> After a few minutes of waiting, you are offered and accept an order and drive 10 minutes to get to the restaurant. You wait 5 minutes at the restaurant, then drive another 15 minutes to deliver the order.

> In this example, you spent 30 minutes actively on the delivery, which includes the drive to the restaurant, the wait at the restaurant, and the drive to drop off the order.

Yes, safe. I would guess that the absolute failure rate of nuclear power is likely a function of reactor design count, not reactor count, and that the current failure rate at reactors is greatly increased by the part where every reactor is essentially unique and bespoke so you can't easily generalize learnings from post-mortems. Compare to aviation safety, for example, which can just not have repeat failures because after one crash they refit every plane of that model with a new posterior tertiary retroencabulator and then that particular crash never happens again.

Plus, y'know, the part where 1 GW of current real world nuclear power at the current real-world failure rate is safer, quality-adjusted-life-years-per-megawatt-wise, than 1 GW of coal or oil, even before you take higher-order effects of greenhouse gas emissions into account.

Similarly, the cost to decom a reactor is paid once per design, and scaling up would amortize those costs across the fleet rather than across a single unique reactor.
