>In other ways, I’m upset and jealous the author got there first.

If it makes you feel better (or worse?) I wrote something very similar to this 20 years ago and still use it every day. I wanted my own RSS reader back then, hated all the ones I saw and wanted one that looked like a normal blog (not inbox, similar to OP's requirements) that I could design however I wanted. So I basically wrote an RSS feed parser to give me everything and designed it to look like my normal blog does.

That got modified to going to grab the full article if the RSS feed only had blurbs. I didn't want to have to click outside my reader to view the full post, I wanted everything in my feed reader. Since I had a basic page scraper, I used that for other sites that didn't have RSS feeds, this helped a lot when social media became popular so I never had to actually go to any social media sites at all. I could just stay in my own feed with the content I wanted (I was never really into social media anyway).

And as you can imagine, it being 20 years old means it's written in old tech, PHP and XSLT, because that's what I was writing 20 years ago. And it's still written in that.

In any case I highly suggest making your own. It's a fun project. Sure mine is crufty and old and sometimes doesn't generate the right content I want (scraping is fairly imperfect), but it's mine and it's been my daily reader for 20 years and I love it.
That depends on the viewer. For this viewer,some of the available talks are truly worthwhile.

While QA and testing is important, I’m not sure you can convince the people only concerned about profits… I think the “release it fast and patch it later” concept here to stay due to the internet being so accessible. Why bother spending tons of money and time when the users will just report the bugs and you can release updates over the internet they can download. Ever since physical copies of video games and software were replaced mainly by downloads, it seems like patching is cheaper. Of course this leads to horrendous security issues, bad user experience, etc. but who cares as long as the guy on top is maximizing profits.
>My comment had nothing to do with trigger warning or any kind of sensitiveness

Yes it did. Here it is, reproduced:

>Couldn't you have said "compartmentalized", or "dominated by hostile silos" or anything else that doesn't involve comparison of the state of online chatting with wars that have killed humans? I agree things were nice with adium.

In this comment, you have nothing of value to add to the conversation. Your comment could be replaced with "adium good" and it would retain all its utility. Yet, you felt it was necessary to police the language of someone else using a benign and commonplace term ("Balkanized") because it offended your particular sensibilities.

Welcome to the internet. People say things you disagree with regularly. If the term Balkanized offends you, please do not visit 4chan, reddit, twitter, or mastodon.

Your comment quoted above is of the absolute lowest quality, adds nothing to the conversation, and serves only to drag the quality of conversation down into the muck where the rest of the faux-intelligentsia strive to find new things they can be outraged about.
This is really cool, nicely done
That tracks. IBM acquiring Hashicorp was a persistent rumor I heard during my last year at IBM (timing was not long after the Red Hat acquisition).
Super cool they found a way to build them above the foundation, thanks for sharing, glad to learn something new today.
> Also why look at dumb things per day when what matters (to me) is the enormity of dumb actions?

Elephant does what elephant does and ants complain. What do you expect?

> He bought Twitter for way more than it was worth because he had a hissy fit.

You don't make mistakes? Your ability grow wealth is superior? How then do you judge?

> He’s “concerned” that AI isn’t allowed to say the n-word.

Might he be concerned about censorship in general? If something against the law it is against the law but what gives you the right to impose your notion of "proper" speech on others? Do people have a right not to be offended? The attack on the Charlie Hebdo newspaper office in Paris by Islamic extremists you think they were justified due to being offended by cartoons?

> He did a live public call with Andrew Tate, Alex Jones, and Vivek Ramaswamy.

Now you want to impose rules on others about who they are allowed to talk to in public?

> I could do one simply dumb thing every day for my entire life and not live up to the sheer stupidity of this man’s actions.

Elephant does what elephant does. Ant does what ant does. You can not compare them. I believe strong feelings cloud your view.
Does it? I have an MS, but never put it next to my name. I'm doing well :)
We had free texts before iPhones nevermind WhatsApp. Not unlimited but hundreds of SMSs a month was common. That said another thread here implied that carriers included MMS messages in free texts, not just SMS? If so that might explain as MMS aren't free in my experience.
If you were trying to convince me that hacker news is extensively astroturfed by companies to support their viewpoint, you did that. Ouch.
I still use this feature all the time (we live in a rural area with many pockets of no reception). Yes, it will still try to fetch live data if you have a connection, but if you're out of LTE/5G range it won't. Or you can just turn on airplane mode and it'll always use the offline data.

In recent versions, it will also auto-cache tiles along the way if you navigate somewhere far away, even if you don't explicitly tell it to.

Both features have saved me from getting lost many times...
My intention was to point out that the price gap wasn’t as great as it was made out to be. What part of my response can I clarify?
Good. Now allow self-signed extensions like literally every other browser that supports extensions.
A ceasefire is no solution and no one is calling it that. It’s a moral imperative that anyone with a shred of humanity can support given all key observers, including Biden, has called the Likud campaign indiscriminate bombing.

The bombing is not going to do anything. Hamas is not a regular army, there are 30k+ Hamas, when IDF tells people to clear an area, do you not think the Hamas clears it as well? Then what will all this bombing achieve?

Hamas will perform these attacks again, so long as Israel keeps closing millions of people in a box, in the world’s largest starvation camp, this cycle will come continue.

The only rational solution is a two state solution. Right now, Israel is pushing more people into Hamas, you can’t kill people’s children with your bombs and then even attempt to shift responsibility.

With nearly 20,000 people killed, Israel conducts an Oct 7, every 4 days, does so with impunity and cruelty.
Worth mentioning that when you ask people in such regions, it becomes quite difficult to explain the difference between the police (or military) and cartels.

Applying your concepts of what those terms should mean can be quite counter productive.

Ask HN: My co-founder fired me, sold the startup, and I haven't gotten anything
Some relevant details:

- Some of my equity had vested before I was fired, and I have proof of my equity ownership

- I found out from a PR release that the startup was acquired by a PE firm

- We raised $2M in total from a VC. I'm aware that if the startup was sold for less than $2M, all of it would go to liquidation preferences

- I heard through the grapevine that the startup was sold for less than $2M, but I have no idea if this is true, or if there were any shady dealings involved

- I've emailed my co-founder to ask for details but he hasn't replied or informed me of anything

As someone who isn't a multimillionaire, I have no idea what I can practically do to learn more about the acquisition terms, figure out if I'm owed any money, or if I'm getting screwed in any way. Is there anything I can practically do that would be worth the money?
Yes the hack is gross and yes I would love to use Helmfile. But our use case is to fit into customers' helm processes, eg ArgoCD et al.
Other people may remember this differently. Some things are a bit of a blur. My brain selectively blocks some of this - It was basically an exhausting two/three year crunch to rewrite Fennec as a modern Android app.
Part of the reason UK switched over quickly is because of much higher international texting needs which these apps also neatly solve. Your average American just straight up does not need international messaging capability
Or… one could just cringe and make the effort not to think any of these thoughts about people IRL. As a patient, or ever really.

There are usually plenty other criteria available to base decisions on with available medical practitioners. I find it’s usually a pretty good idea to not get smart with doctors, and I take the one that shows up.

As for medical admissions, I’ve spent a good few years working collaborating with surgeons. And good grades, like looks, are a distant starting point for such people. Not one particularly relevant to one’s ability to navigate the actual decision making in job or the long-winding process of actually getting to that point.
Can this be used alongside a Git repo?

I have an odd use case in mind:

1. Git handles intentional releases / commits

2. Klunok handles "timelapse" recording of development to avoid full screen capture

This would make it easier to re-play development and re-render code with zooming and styles as needed.

CMG Local was mostly spun out from Cox to the PE scumbags (double negative) at Apollo.
For a long time you couldn't actually fork it because qmail didn't have a license and djb refused to add one due his unconventional views on licenses and his general stubbornness. So the only thing you could do was distribute a "patch set". And all of this also meant it wasn't packages in many repos.

By the time he finally added a copyright notice it was kind of a "too little, too late" kind of affair.

This is the story with most "djb-ware": daemontools, djbdns, qmail. I think it's a real shame because all of these had great potential to be picked up by others after djb himself lost interest. I suppose daemontools is the most "successful", but only in the form of the runit re-implementation.
Probably when e-mail was the primary form of digital communication.

Or maybe referring to RL. You know, actually talking to someone on phone or in-person. Although then you have to deal with different accents, dialects, languages, and even regions specific lexicon.

It's interesting to simultaneously see takes complaining about fragmentation and apple having monopoly power in this thread. In sympathetic to the fragmentation take honestly, apple doesn't stop you from installing Whatsapp, but it's an interesting situation where it's folks who opted into a closed system that are complaining about the system being closed
Ah so do "free texts" in the USA include MMS? That might explain the continued usage. In the UK MMS often aren't included, if anything they're charged stupidly high, so you'd never send a pic via text message.
Carriers typically charge the actual media portion of MMS (e.g. the photo or video) as data.
You would be surprised how controversial this is. Try saying all civilians should be protected, or should have equal rights. The racist will come and tell you how one side is more important than the other to have the same rights to life, dignity and safety.
No one has even asked me to install WhatsApp or Signal or anything. I'm not sure where the tantrum is happening. I mean, if someone wanted to send me a message, I'd ask them to do it with SMS first, since I already use that. But I've never seen any evidence of any tantrums.
So did iMessage back then.
Automated tests take manual testing from 60% to 50% of the time to develop quality software. Valuable, but not a bullet to manual tests.
Ask HN: Tool to compare OSS communities to each other
I'm looking for help from the larger community. I'm looking for tools to help compare OSS communities to each other.

I'll be even more specific. Say I'm an OSS OLAP database and I want to have as much mindshare as Trino. Is there a tool that can tell me how I compare my OSS product/community to theirs. I'm thinking along several dimensions.

- Technical Parity: Focus on core functionality, performance, and query compatibility with Trino.

- Ecosystem Parity: Ensure smooth integration with existing tools and ecosystem.

- Community Parity: Strive for similar levels of user engagement, contribution, and support.

The closest I've seen is just measuring my own community using Common Room (commonroom.io) but they don't provide scorecard features that track key KPIs (they do track new members numbers and engagement rates but want more) and telling me what we need to work on. Thoughts?
In late 1977/early 1978 I used a Honeywell Level 66 mainframe whose timesharing interface was lower-case. My memory is hazy, but I’m pretty sure I typed in the FORTRAN in lower case, and the printouts were in upper case, including the comments. Probably, as mentioned by other posters, the line printer only had an upper case train. Certainly I typed lower case into the command prompt.

The operating system on that piece of overworked big iron was GCOS, formerly GECOS. This is the very same GECOS that’s still a field in /etc/passwd, where it was originally used to store the user’s GECOS account name. Bell Labs had a GECOS system and you could spool jobs to it from the Unix systems, so that was why the field existed. It shows the Unix creators were familiar with that operating system.

In 1977 Unix Version 7 had only just come out and was beginning to appear outside Bell Labs. Its influence on the wider computing world would have been slight.

However, I doubt the Unix creators got the lower case directly from GECOS. They had worked on Multics, which was also lower case. (Coincidentally, Multics ran on the same hardware as GECOS, with the addition of a memory management unit.)
You have a deep misunderstanding of what "control" means.

Hang out at places like Barnes and Noble while you code and drink coffee.

Pick up books from subjects that you think might interest you while you hang. Read a few chapters and decide if the book/subject is for you.

If you really love it; buy the book and take it home.

I did this for a number of years, and absorbed a lot from coding, general physics, quantum mechanics, and even tried to dabble in Astro physics.
> I would want to go much further, disrupting consumption.

If you make it cheaper and easier to use tasty, varied, local production rather than factory farming, you will also disrupt consumption.

I like my meat, but I used to happily eat vegetarian at one restaurant that grew a ton of their own produce. Everything there was excellent even if it wasn't to my taste.

That's how you disrupt consumption.
It's not the equivalent.

If the third party phones allowed users access to Ma Bell's network, switching systems, etc, without paying Ma Bell - then it might be equivalent.

I'm pretty sure that would be considered theft of communication services.
Beeper (Beeper Cloud) is a cross-platform stack that supports multiple messaging systems (not just iMessage) and has been in development for years.[1] This is different from Beeper Mini, which is a recently launched Android-exclusive app that only supports SMS/MMS and iMessage.[2]

The release of Beeper Mini certainly gained publicity for Beeper Cloud, and I don't see why Beeper Mini would cause Beeper Cloud to go defunct.

>Is this some European thing I'm no aware of? Gig workers can accept jobs from multiple apps and log on anytime they want.

Don't know about it only being a euro-thang, but what you describe is almost the very definition of gig-working. Except, they often can't do 'anytime they want'.
Are you sure it doesn't? Google Maps on Android does, for me.

Zoom into some location you've never looked up before, in some country you haven't been to. Turn on airplane mode. You can pan around and the nearby areas will still be there. Zoom out, and previously cached tiles will still be available. Go to some other part of the world, and a coarse resolution version of their polygons should still be visible.

I think as of a few years ago, it also auto-caches tiles along a navigation route, but I can't find the announcement stating that anymore :(
Depends on industry. Some care about quality, they respect qa.
That's easy. Now people used to high quality displays, even cheap now are good.

But this was not always. First videomonitors was very moderate quality, with huge distortions, and they even wear out (yes, OLED wear out is not new problem for industry). Only later, appear professional monitors, and after looong time, near all monitors become digital, and high quality and long life.

And UPPER case is much more readable on moderate quality monitor. That's all.
> It's going to get increasingly difficult to bootstrap new languages unless they are available in LLMs.

Or maybe you'll teach your new language to the LLM and it will make porting and binding to everything else easy.
I came to the comments to say more or less the same thing; however, I would also propose that it should probably be updated to use python for maximum accessibility of the cool ideas therein in this day and age (said even though I am a certifiable schemer).
If NASA can't contact it again and it has bravely gone into the great darkness alone with a piece of us, let's hope it's eventually found by a race capable of understanding the fragment of memory it carries.

Both AMD and Intel (and Qualcomm to some degree) just don't seem to get how you beat NVIDIA.

If they want to grab a piece of NVIDIA's pie, they do NOT need to build something better than an H100 right away. There are a million consumers who are happy with a 4090 or 4080 or even 3080 and would love for something that's equally capable at half price, and moreover, actually available for purchase, from Amazon/NewEgg/wherever, and without a "call for pricing" button. AMD and Intel are much better at making their chips available for purchase than NVIDIA. But that's not enough.

What they DO need to do to take a piece of NVIDIA's pie is to build "intelcc", "amdcc", and "qualcommcc" that accept the EXACT SAME code that people feed to "nvcc" so that it compiles as-is, with not a single function prototype being different, no questions asked, and works on the target hardware. It needs to just be a drop-in replacement for CUDA.

When that is done, recompiling PyTorch and everything else to use other chips will be trivial.
In addition to what other people mentioned (if you design something to have a 99.99% chance of lasting x years, it'll probably last some multiple of x), a lot of failures follow what's called a bathtub curve (visual depiction: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bathtub_curve#/media/File%3A...).

Once you can make something work for 1 day, you're past the most dangerous phase.
The kubernetes provider, and kubectl works, but its not the nicest way of making changes. Its slow, quite clunky, and its not particularly intuitive. If your just getting started, and you know terraform its ok though. Its useful to bootstrap gitops tools like Argo or FluxCD though.

Helm diff will show you a similar diff to terraform. Running Helmfile in CD isn't a bad move, its really simple, and its a pattern that is easy to grok by any engineer. I think this is still a valid approach in a simple setup, its what some people call "CD OPS". It's a push model instead of pull, and there are downsides, but its not the end of the world.

Ultimately, at scale, i think gitops tooling like Flux and ArgoCD are some of the nicest patterns. Especially Flux's support for OCI artifacts as a source of truth. However then you will venture into the realm of kustomize, and much more complex tooling and concepts, which is not always worth doing.
Tofu/terraform provider?
I think you can forgive yourself. Single-point mutations are just about the most random things that can go wrong. A cosmic ray can cause one.
Sorry, thought it was a fairly familiar acronym. IC = individual contributor.
The part keeping a star together is its gravitational pull to all of its pieces. The part keeping it from collapsing is the outward push of its fusion (and also the electrons pushing against each other since they can't all occupy the same space).

This is usually balanced and you have a nice star. When the fusion slows as the star exhausts fuel, gravitational pull dominates and everything falls inward in a collapse. That presses the inner bits together nice and tight, and then the outer bits bounce off it.

So you have a collapse inward with an explosion as everything bounces off. Wikipedia has a nice picture.
NASA definitely does overengineer things at the beginning, but it's worth noting that an incredible amount of work goes into keeping these things alive past their end date. For example regularly updating the software to be more efficient so probes can keep functioning and communicating despite having less and less power and being further and further away.

There's also lessons learned once a mission is in progress, like "if we move in this weird pattern we can shake some dust off the solar panels."

Finally, a lot of these missions that continue long past the predicted end date do so with some limitations - maybe going forward a particular sensor is unavailable or certain maneuvers can't be done anymore - but there's still enough to justify keeping the mission going.
You have made a solid argument for why we should believe the Euro NCAP scores so I will accept their assessment that Tesla is by far the worst.

Your link shows Tesla scores 36/100 in assistance competence, the lowest score by far. The second lowest is 52/100 and the average over all models (excluding Tesla) being ~67/100.
Just a side thought, with all due respect:

> The controversial worldviews such as multi-cloud that we founded this company on are now mainstream and broadly accepted.

Emm .. no. It is not mainstream. Multi-cloud may be forced choice for some regulated fintech, but no sane project will double the infra codebase just to get from "lock-in". I see no other benefits. And double the codebase is quadruple the bugs. This is main Terraform's sales pitch, and it has to die. IMHO.
