Nothing wrong with ethernet, but listening to Musks statements, especially in fields I have some not even deep knowledge, alwqys like listening to a very confident, but otherwise clueless, 1st semester student selling you semester 2 basics as the latest and hottest shit under the sun nobody else even considered possible so far...
Suggestion: A constitutional amendment that says if the budget did not balance at the end of the year, then next year's tax rates all increase from this last year's rates by double the percentage that would have been required to balance last year's budget.

This would override all measures by the legislature to set tax rates.

I don't agree with that being clean code in the first place. It's just adhering to the DRY maxim, which is one perspective on clean code, and imho the worst one. DRY causes you to mix use cases and glueing stuff together just because it's the same code.

DRY caused so much problems in my professional life. I'm now in the "DDD, ports & adapters" fraction and I encourage people to duplicate logic as long as the implemented use cases are isolated. That produces code that's easy to read, maintain, test, and is intertwined with the business logic. How often couldn't you explain business logic to stakeholders/customers because the code you write is worlds apart from how the app operates?

That's what the author also means with "My code traded the ability to change requirements for reduced duplication, and it was not a good trade." I guess.

Really good self-reflection though.
I’m wary of making Kagi a habit since I am positive in medium term they won’t be profitable with their current model. Flat rate won’t cover outliers and abusers, so once they really start losing money on expensive LLM-based features the regular users will get burnt—either I will have to pay more, or the experience will get worse due to cost-cutting measures, or they betray my trust by monetizing user data, accepting more investment which never comes without strings attached, or just selling the business.

The best possible, most honest and sustainable option would be usage-based billing, but it appears that Kagi have decided against that route.

I’m a moderately happy customer and would hands down recommend Kagi, but personally wouldn’t use it by default as the inevitable cost of changing my habit again in future puts me off.
What matters is energy but what's being carried by the wire is charge. A given amount of charge can have more or less energy, which is what voltage is. So if you give each unit of charge more energy then you can carry more power by only moving the same amount of charge. You get a similar thing in mechanical systems: a shaft is sized based on the maximum amount of torque it can withstand, but the amount of power going through it also depends on the RPM. More RPM = more power, for the same amount of torque, so if you are for some reason limited in the size of the shaft, you can use a gearing mechanism to rotate it faster and then gear down the other side and get more power through a smaller shaft. It's just that in mechanical systems gears are a lot less convenient than changing voltages is in electrical systems.

(RPM and voltage are in fact related in EVs as well: generally speaking a higher voltage motor will be able to produce more power for the same amount of space and materials, but mostly by spinning faster, not producting more torque. You then need to gear it down to be practical in a car. But the trend is that things that make higher voltages and higher RPMs possible (the technology in transistors, insulation, bearings) are already cheap or getting cheaper, while things that make higher currents and torques possible (generally more raw material like copper and steel) are staying the same or getting more expensive. So EVs in general are pushing to higher voltages for lots of things)

I mean, I think _intent_, and scale, probably comes into it. Clearly, Facebook does not want this sort of material; its existence is merely a failure of moderation, and something that advertisers can lean on Facebook to fix. It also, realistically, isn't at all prominent; Facebook is not going to abruptly shove it in the face of 165 million people. On the other hand, Musk himself in the past few weeks has posted "Great Replacement" and Pizzagate far-right conspiracy bullshit, broadcasting it to his 165 million followers. Based on this alone, I think most reasonable people would doubt that Twitter has any intention of cleaning up its Nazi problem.
I first bought a FP1 and I am now on a FP3. The FP1 is still just about operable as an emergency phone, and maybe a tiny bit of browsing. The FP3 is going fine. I have chosen not to upgrade the camera module, though I am still thinking about it. The 'F' has fallen off the backing plate so I in fact own an 'AIRPHONE'. A friend by the same token owns "A PHONE" which I pointed out is an entirely accuate failure mode! B^>

Where I live (in Germany) there are 8 or 9 supermarkets within half a mile distance, two of which organic and one a "center" (i.e. big). I find that the inventory is limited only in 1 or 2 of the smallest ones. In all the others I typically find everything I need.
I bought a FP3+, still using it after 3 years, but would not go Fairphone again. Despite supporting what the company stands for, I feel they didn't deliver on their promises.

I was hoping for more upgrades to be available over time, but that was never the case. Instead, two new models appeared with a year interval and the 4 didn't even get any upgrades. Worse even, the 3.5mm jack was removed, following the trend of getting customers to buy headphones with a limited life time due to their battery. The promise of being the responsible choice for the planet is fading away.

I also faced issues when it came to repairing my device. After only 3 months the USB-C port died, impossible to charge it and once out of battery, I couldn't get my data from it. I contacted the support and they offered me two solutions: I send in the phone, it will get fixed but wiped clean or I order the part online and they reimburse me (they couldn't just send it from the repair center...). I chose the latter as I didn't want to loose my data and felt it was the more ecologically responsible choice, especially since the phone is so repairable. Well, the part was not available on their store, checked every retailer in Europe and third party parts don't exist. I was stuck with a brick for 4 months. The irony is that if I had an iPhone or Galaxy, I could get it fixed the same day at the phone repair shop around the corner...

I appreciate all the efforts Fairphone put in setting up more responsible supply chains. But in my opinion they still failed on their sustainability promise. The devices aren't well supported, it's difficult to repair them and they quickly fall behind due to the lack of upgrades (that also goes with the main board not being replaceable). New devices follow the disastrous trends of other brands with a new model each year and removing the headphone jack. Sure, they are a business and need to make money, but not by going against their own values.
Glad Alan Wake 2 did so well. Brilliant game.
People really don't understand the attack here.

It does not matter who is providing the notification service. No amount of encryption (actual E2EE encryption) prevents that ability for a government agency or criminal enterprise to functionally compromise the service to determine which users are getting push notifications from which other users or services.

It also does not matter if you use push notifications (which are vastly better for performance by every metric), or polling. Necessarily the intermediary (Apple, Google, Signal, FB, etc) know the origin and the destinations of anything that would currently be a notification. Requiring polling does not stop that.

Having lots of different services does not stop it either: the orders given to google and apple can just as easily be given to any other company or organization, and more importantly it sounds like google and apple were only able to say anything because a US Senator explicitly asked them so we have no way to know if any organization that was not explicitly asked is also subject to the same orders. The same applies to a criminal organization compromising such a service, only providers aren't prohibited from saying anything, they're just oblivious.

If you are using a service that necessarily involves a third party, that third party can be subject to orders that require them to turn over anything about you or messages you send or receive, or criminals compromising the provider watching the same thing. Encryption (real encryption, not just TLS, not "no one other than you or the provider can access it") can only protect the actual content, the sender and the receiver cannot be protected.

The term 'clean' is ambiguous. I aim for 'simple' code. That means as few lines of code as necessary, as few abstractions as necessary, as few files as necessary. I have a rule of thumb that every abstraction I 'invent' should be relatively easy to explain to a non-technical person. So far in my 12 year career, I don't think I've ever had to invent an abstraction that was so complex that I couldn't explain it to a moderately intelligent business person and I've worked on some very complex systems.

Edit: Heat released is also proportional to the temperature differential between the wire and the outside world, as well as a constant associated with how well it's thermally insulated. The wire temperature rises till either some sort of breakdown occurs or that rate of heat release balances the rate of heat production. The spirit of that original comment is correct, but this feels like a nuance that might matter to somebody new to the topic.
for me, it was anyways the case because of windows 11 limitations (inability to undervolt on laptops) and the hardware issues of my laptop (heavy thermal throttling)

it was much easier in the past (when hyper-v is disabled) with windows compared to using specific tools in linux. however, now it is a matter of whether it is possible at all or not.

The routing table won't get flushed in between the slumber of the WiFi or 5G modem.

Pull does not solve the problem. The attack here is the metadata "what was the origin" and "what is the destination", and pulling data does not solve that.
On the flipside, I whole-heartedly recommend Kagi because I haven't gotten the sense they're running an unsustainable VC-backed business. As long as Kagi exists and provides such a competent search engine, I'm willing to give them my money monthly. I don't see an alternative if I want something other than Google or Bing.

They've repeatedly adjusted their pricing and usage rate billing based on their needs so that I don't feel there's a real risk from abusers/exploiters. They seem to be pragmatic enough to clamp down on that kind of thing as soon as they see how the costs develop under current circumstances and caused by what users/user habits.

I have that faith in them because so far they've been very transparent in their blog posts about when they've made changes and why.
Similar here. I didn't know Kagi until, as I remember, there was an article here on HN. I thought too why should I pay for search?

Kagi basically won me after I realised I can exclude whole domains from search results - now Pinterest, Stackshare and all those AI-generated content filler sites are gone from my search results. Search results are great and it's just worth it.

The only advantage Google so far has IMHO is location-aware search. For certain keywords (like "gym") it feels like Google better looks for results that are within your area, whereas Kagi needs some more input (like a city/district name).
Would be interesting to see how all those jpegs fared if run though ECT (https://github.com/fhanau/Efficient-Compression-Tool). I’ve found it can save a surprising amount of space sometimes.

My point more was on what kind of platfrom Instagram and Tiktok want themselves to be. Do they see themselves as a way to increase positive feedback of memes and interesting stuff or do they want people to fight within their walled garden. I have found lot of accounts making funny memes about serious topics and the comments are hilarious as well. So maybe these accounts are trying to be Colbert Report or Jon Stewart's Daily Show.

> Final thought: Every user should be able to choose a "Notification Provider" for every app

That is too much I think? It would be weird to trust one notification provider for some stuff, and another one for others? Every user should be able to choose a "Notification Provider" is IMO enough.

On that front, there is already a push standard which is called WebPush which allows to do this seemlessly. Except it's only in browsers (also I don't think any major browser allows customizing it?). On non-Google Android, you have UnifiedPush. (It isn't a standard. Not sure it would make sense to make a standard of an Android API?)

I've been thinking of making a OwnerOS: a bare Android who lets users pick every component they want. You select which store you want, which assistant you want, which notification provider you want, which SystemUI you want etc. All of which currently require to root your device to customize.
pihole works by filtering whatever device is on your network, even if it doesn't support ublock... and coming changes in Google Chrome manifest v3 doesn't impact pihole.

Cannot judge on the quality filtering tho.
While your approach to rotating the WPA2 shared secret (SSID passphrase) is efficient, it does have the drawbacks you mentioned. Fortunately, there are incident management tools to minimize the cost and downtime for your organization. We use Squadcast, and we've experienced a reduced client update burden. We're maintaining the existing SSID, and automation is also possible for runbooks.
With 1GB or more of memory, you don't need a specific distro. The most popular ones should run, albeit with not too much ram to spare for browsing with the default desktop.

You only need to install a lighter wm like icewm, windowmaker or fvwm and you are good to go.

And if those machines haven't soldered components, a wee bit more ram and replacing the spinning drives with SSDs would transform them to something functionally very modern.

Having said that I would have probably gone the openbsd/netbsd route with those machines.
So, I've been off Twitter since last November, but before I went, until I blocked him, virtually every Musk tweet was showing up in the algorithmic feed for me, and it was constantly suggesting I follow him. And, like, a lot of the material he's been tweeting lately is very far from family friendly, unless you're a rather odd and frightening family.

(Of course, possibly it doesn't do the Musk hyperpromotion thing anymore.)

>Clean code is not a goal. It’s an attempt to make some sense out of the immense complexity of systems we’re dealing with. It’s a defense mechanism when you’re not yet sure how a change would affect the codebase but you need guidance in a sea of unknowns.

My diet is rather unremarkable, I don't consume a lot of sugar or sweets but don't refrain from them either. I brush 3 times a day. I do have occasional halitosis but it seems to be related to acid reflux, my breath seems to be fine when I have no reflux.
Because the scenarios in question are only concerned with emissions from transportation, but more importantly disregard storage.

Multiple countries at present, at times, exceed their energy demand by renewable production...but the excess is pretty much just lost, their isn't adequate storage to bank that energy.

EVs do bank that energy, and more importantly they're likely to do it during the parts of the day demand isn't as high (i.e. peak sunshine).

Moreover, centralized emissions control or reduction is much more addressable then 1,000,000 individual combustion engines.
Very lazy journalism. I would have liked to see how many child sexual abusers were found until now due to the lack of encryption.
Singapore is a bit more westernised, so people are more familiar with dairy products. We also have enough people from the wider Indian subcontinent (India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, etc), who traditionally have more of a dairy culture.

Plus Singapore is reasonably fond of her time as a British colony.

No way is it cheap. Figures for Christchurch:

Building 101km of cycleways across Christchurch to cost $301m

population 405000, So that is $750 per person, which is about 1% of median earnings for a year. Yes the spending is over many years, but so what.

3% of trips are by bicycle, so this is a pretty shitty deal for the other 97%: https://greaterchristchurch.org.nz/our-work/indicators/urban...

People are not voting for this with their bicycle trips. This is just local government spending public money for rather unpopular outcomes.
