I don’t think it’s correct to extrapolate from “copycat rule is applied unfairly” to “don’t make apps at all”.

I think there _is_ an interesting tension though. Original developers should receive protection against copycat apps. Users who hear about a compelling app should be able to find it, instead of a poorly done clone.

Should other developers be able to riff on the original? A word game in a different language that’s not being served by the original sounds to me like it should be allowed, but I haven’t thought about it before this morning.

Is this an instance of “reviewer roulette” letting some copycats through? Or is there a hidden test that this app fails while others are passing? Is that test insufficient?
Yeah, it's weird and arbitrary.

It wasn't always "out of control". There was a fairly well defined set of tipped employees. It was a legally recognized category -- they were usually paid almost entirely in tips. It was weird and arbitrary, but controlled. You just memorized the custom, like other mandatory social customs.

Tipping got "out of control" during the pandemic, when we realized that a lot of face-to-face service employees were absolutely essential, and had to take their lives into their hands. People understood and wanted to do something. The existing tipping system was easily co-opted.

It made sense, except that it steps right into the ugly "tipping is optional except that it's not" problem. Now that people aren't really risking their lives any more it should just fade out. That won't resolve the underlying weirdness, but it'll at least revert to the status quo ante.

Some might find your take bizarre, but the early architects of the internet were against NAT as well. Although, in their idealistic scenario IPv4 would not have held up as long as it did, and probably would have hastened the introduction of IPv6 - not to mention the security concerns like all devices needing competent firewalls. Some people just didn't like that computers could be locked behind a network veil/wall.

Introduce an error epoch and let maintainers advance it at whatever pace they'd like. You could even select a more recent epoch for your local builds and keep your CI builds on an earlier epoch until you've qualified against the most recent one.
I’m not sure how accurate it is but according to this video they’re pretty close nowadays: https://youtu.be/uY-tMBk9Vx4
No they are not going to scrapheap, those PCs are going to chew on for many years, while being parts of endless amount botnets as free units. So Microsoft will be forced to support unless they want to see internet breaking DDoS every week.
It is shitty is that your ISP blocked NAT, that is certainly a crime against humanity, as running your own server is such a pure expression of freedom.
How exactly does it break the spirit of the Internet? The spirit of the Internet is that we run out of IPv4 addresses and everyone who uses the Internet has to learn IPv6 and be an expert on firewalls?

I can't tell if you're being elitist because your defacto position is that everyone who uses the Internet has to be a cyber security expert, or if you're just being obtuse because a couple of Google searches will usually set you straight on setting up port forwarding through your router.
I see 'no fault' divorce as an extension of islamic divorce law - in practical terms its not an aberration though - we'd been employing various legal fictions in divorce cases to grant pseudo no-fault divorce as far back as the 1840's - where yes 'fault' was meaningless in the context of the granting of divorce - it just had to exist.
It’s obviously not meant to be an exhaustive list of such books, which would be impossible. And any such list on the internet is just an opening for an argument.
1) that’s not JSX, it just looks like it

2) it’s still an external library, which is OPs point
> Pop open a command shell and use ping, it still goes out through Tor.

Nitpick, but since there's no way to send ICMP traffic through a SOCKS proxy, using ping from whonix workstation is impossible (i.e. it won't work). But any other kind of beaconing (DNS leak, curl to a clearnet website) will be properly torified.
1. The Chromebook doesn't need that much performance. That would be like putting a V12 engine in a golf cart and limiting it to 5 MPH. ChromeOS is very limited.

2. That eliminates the budget-friendly aspect of the Chromebook which schools love.

You are complaining that a product meant for a different purpose and different users doesn't meet your expectations. You are not the target audience for the device.
NAT is an accidental consequence of IPv4 address shortage, but it turned out to a blessing in disguise. NAT gives every home a basic hardware firewall for free.

Everything, for better and worse (mostly worse) is connected to the internet nowadays. Your watch. Your dishwasher. Your TV. Your light switches. These devices are all comically insecure but because they can't accept outside connections because of NAT it's not such a big deal. IPv4 limitations make outbound connectivity easy but incoming connectivity hard. This is what you want 99% of the time.

The author repeatedly mentions that his new headphones are a bit too sensitive for his liking, hence the hardwired gain adjustment.
Proposition 1A says:

* San Francisco–San Jose: 30 minutes; this would require about 100 mph (160 km/h) on average

* San Jose–Los Angeles: 2 hours, 10 minutes; this would require about 200 mph (320 km/h) on average

Which is rather uninspiring compared to traveling by air, and somewhat worse than the Nozomi Shinkansen travelling between Tokyo and Osaka.

The slow leg between SF-SJ reminds me of taking the TGV from Paris to Nice. The part between Marseille and Nice took just as long as from Paris to Marseille.

With all that said though, I would still take the CA HSR once it is built and I am looking forward to its completion.
Boy am I glad to see American Gods on that list. I started reading it on someone else's recommendation, whom I obviously should not have trusted. I gave up halfway, convinced that Neil Gaiman is a pen name of Garth Marenghi.

I bought a $25 headphone amplifier and that solved most problems for me. Around the same time, I also built my own desktop speakers from components, which made me appreciate how everything in my office is basically an RF emitter and receiver.

You need to be 13.

>On the other hand, cloud services require you to have a debit or credit card, which you can't get without an intervention from your parents if at all.

With parental permission, a 13-year-old can open a free bank account with a debit card that works online. It's not a new thing, I had one 15 years ago.
We use some of these techniques at Groq to make the world's fastest LLM appliance! You can see for yourself how fast it is at https://groq.com/ (click "Launch demo" in the top right). The model is Llama 2 70B.

Our hardware is an "LPU" (language processing unit). The silicon has a very regular/uniform/homogeneous design with compute located close to memory, which allows us to get a much lower latency for language models than a GPU can. A lot of the smarts is in the compiler toolchain, which can fit high-level model descriptions (say Torch, ONNX) to the hardware without the need for handwritten kernels. I work on the assembler part of the toolchain, which is written in Haskell.

EDIT: To the downvoters, I guarantee that once you've tried the demo you'll be so surprised at how fast it is that you'll change your vote.
> We had propulsive rocket landings in the 80's.

Didn't the Apollo project use propulsive rocket landings to land on the moon (which was kind of necessary due to the moon's lack of a dense enough atmosphere)? IIRC, that was much earlier than the 1980s.

Sampling wouldn't have helped in the VW emissions case. All the cars had the same software to detect if it was on the road or at a test stand and adjust the fuel mapping accordingly. Maybe in the future, they'll do road tests. IMO, any time you can test it in a higher fidelity environment, the better. There's a lot that needs to be worked out on the testing side to prevent gaming the system.

The original designs had the hyperloop above ground. The later ”loop” (no hyper, drive a car onto a skate that then shunts around under the city) were underground; there might have been an early iteration of that urban design that contemplated vacuum though.

Of course you _can_ go underground but that doesn’t make sense economically for long-range (nobody is digging a tunnel SF-LA). And the hyper bit (vacuum pump and acceleration at each stop) makes less sense for short-range transport in urban environments.
Hyperloop is technically distinct from either of those.
Thanks for the clarification. I have no problem paying money to support open source development, or to pay for support or sponsor open source features I need, etc. I don't use non-open source code for anything critical in my business, and avoid it whenever possible even outside of critical functions. That includes proprietary extensions to open source cores.

I don't mean to sound entitled, I always want to express gratitude to developers for contributing to open source. But I will say that I would never pay for proprietary features- not because I don't want to pay, but because I want open source features, and I am willing to pay for open source features.
I really prefer sizeof(*c) in that expression to protect against a badly-sized allocation of c's type changes.
A little empathy might be in order. This book is infamous for never getting finished even among scientists. Clearly you suited its style if there was even one. Maybe you were just in a very motivated state when you read it. Doesn’t really mean much when the preponderance of evidence isn’t in that direction.
Our second baby didn't really like the Snoo (however, he's nearly a year and a half old, and he still doesn't sleep well), but for our first kid, we got the Snoo after going crazy from a month and a half of colicky baby screams. And—I'm not making it up—she slept through the night from nearly the first night. It wasn't consistent from there until she was older, but I'll never cease to praise the machine.

Are you running any servers? I can't find it now, but I remember reading somewhere once that ISPs force IP changes more often on residential users that they detect are running servers.
Arguably if people had somehow rejected NAT more violently, IPv6 might’ve been popular much sooner cause you gotta solve the “woops there are now more devices than addresses” problem somehow.

For the sake of running a home server from a network not behind a NAT router, you don’t need to understand much more about IPv6 than how to copy&paste an address.
I have mixed feelings about standalone USB dac/amps these days. Back in the early days of digital audio, they made a huge difference. For example, when the Cowon U2 portable audio player came out:

https://www.cnet.com/reviews/cowon-iaudio-u2-review/

The iPod basically couldn't output bass because their dac couldn't maintain anything close to a square wave. (There used to be online comparisons of this thing with the iPod, similar to what you linked.)

However, that was 20 years ago, and it hit -95db of hiss, 20-20khz frequency response, with way more power than is needed for in-ear monitors (which is my use case). Apple ended up shipping an iPod with a non-terrible DAC the next year (I think the touch was the first one? Can't remember).

Anyway, now you kind of have to go off the beaten path to find consumer stuff that's perceptibly worse than ideal. In particular, you can get a USB-C -> headphone dongle from apple that's actually a decent DAC for $9 (look at the THD graph. They use the $9 Apple as the cutoff between "yellow" and "green"):

https://www.audiosciencereview.com/forum/index.php?threads/r...

These days, if you're getting noticeably bad performance out of your laptop DAC, it's probably a shielding or grounding issue. The standalone USB DAC will fix that, but only if it's externally powered + grounded (or if you get lucky with how your laptop is wired / shielded), but so would bluetooth (which even supports lossless audio as of 2021).
> From what little I understand the Tanzanian government may be in the best place politically to use these stress tests to focus more attention on port health and capabilities.

The government isn't really in a good place to capitalise on this, they recently signed a deal with DP World to operate part of the Dar es Salaam port. Sentiment on the deal has been pretty negative (massive understatement of the year, no official polls but anecdotally, everyone was pretty pissed with it).
https://www.ft.com/content/f5776df5-9375-438f-bbeb-bc7e8c296...

Considering this existing agreement, the murky dealings surrounding it, the circumstances we found out about it (it was leaked). I don't see them seeking anyone's attention, or even making a show of the increased burden to show that DP World or other "investors" are needed.
Nope. IPv6 still isn't supported everywhere.

When you're running out of addresses, you need a workable solution at the moment.

Not something that requires all networking equipment worldwide to be replaced with a new standard all at once, with is a practical impossibility.
That's a toughie.
Apologies for being naive, but how do you calculate noise?
> At the risk of speculating, I get the feeling you may not want kids, and are projecting those feelings onto other people.

Oh it's fine, I like to consider each possible alternative hypothesis! Speculation is the name of the game!

There's a risk I could rationalize.

There's also the possibility the desire to have kids is baked in the utility function.

If it's baked in, how much of that is mental/software based(cultural) and how much is biological/hardware based (ex: animals want to mate, without having the need a large brain to rationalize this, all they need is a pulse)

I think there's a large risk that having kids is a culturally defined "normal want", but one that serves the group yet goes against the interest of the individual, something that can be seen only if/when the individual has access to consciousness/culture/knowledge etc and also doesn't need "extra pairs of hands" to help on the farm (technological progress)

Animals can't see that, but humans can: then the declining birthrates globally would just be a "correction" by people realizing that having kids is not something they really want.

Yet societies want that (otherwise they'd stop existing) so they would push for whatever narrative or rationalization is serving society's purpose. Most individuals would internalize and accept that (like how most people accept and don't question the religion they're raised in)

It wouldn't take much people opting out for the population growth rate to become negative: anything less than 2 kids per couple on average, and the X (in X^N) goes below 1, meaning X^N decreases.

Now that more people see the rigged game, they opt out, causing a difference families having more than 2 kids (say very religious families or whatever) can compensate for.

It's funny how it's men bothering with that (the title is written to conviently exclude half the population): I guess it's easier to see something as a problem when you don't have to personally bear as much of the costs (in wear and tear of the body + risk of death a few centuries before)
I loved this course and would strongly recommend it to anyone who works with computers that hasn't taken low-level CS classes.

This course does an exceptional job of giving you an intuitive understanding of some critical parts of how a computer works that affect higher-level programs and programming languages (for me the biggest aha! was grokking the difference between the stack and the heap). It is also incredibly fun to appreciate how magical it is that these complicated machines we use are just built from these simple circuits that you keep building up and building up through the course. Finally, the teachers did a fantastic job of simplifying what could be multiple semesters worth of material to quickly give you the gist of things like assembly languages, without oversimplifying.

Really can't recommend this enough if you have the time to do it. FWIW, the first part of the course (from NAND gates to building a CPU) is very fun and fairly easy. The second part (going from a computer to a full operating system) is quite a bit more work.
> But that's not how our roads were built and that's not how humans drive.

Oh, it emphatically is how our roads were built. Most miles in the states were still laid down in an era where cars didn't do more than 45. As for how humans drive... I'll direct the audience's attention to the 3,700 per day road fatality rate in the United States. Even if they brake check more than human drivers, an automated vehicle being forced to follow its programming to maintain a healthy follow distance may very well save lives, especially in an ecosystem where they are the dominant vehicle on the road as opposed to human operated vehicles.
This is just outstanding. It's so exactly what I wish for out of a scratch pad.

My feature request to add to your pile (possibly a lonely one, since maybe it's just unique to how my brain works):

I really want a scratch pad like this to have UX that supports "inverted" order. Meaning, new blocks get added to the top of the page instead of the bottom. The blocks naturally flow in descending order of creation rather than ascending. The scratch pad always opens at the top of the page. Over time, blocks thus end up "decaying" toward the bottom, with the most relevant at the top.

It just fits better with how my brain works.

I also +1 the sentiment given elsewhere in this thread to bias toward ignoring the vast majority of these feature requests and preserve the simplicitly of what you've built. That includes mine!

Ask HN: Why is there no such thing as "open source marketing"
Marketing commercial open source products requires a unique set of skills, strategies, and approaches that deserve to have their own category of growth methodologies. Much like there are practitioners of Product-Led Growth (PLG), Community-Led Growth (CLG), and Sales-Led Growth, it seems like there should be an OSSLG equivalent that focuses on elevating the strategies that can be uniquely successful with open source projects and their commercial counterparts.

Does such a thing exist, and I'm just not finding it?

If it doesn't exist, does anybody want to start it with me?
Second recommending Ben Eater. I love his videos. Two of my favorites are the introduction of loops, and the introduction of interrupts. Seeing the code he wrote re-written using these to be so much more elegant was very satisfying.

“Hard to read,“ of course is a function of how attuned to the book you are at that stage of your life. Also, anything forced upon you will be a hateful read. That’s why people hate a lot of good books with compelling plots, eg OHYoS mentioned in the article.

OTOH, of course, some books do expect you to toil through, generally due to their scope or aspiration or both. In fiction, Ulysses mentioned here, and In Search of Lost Time would be examples that are very different but people have found challenging. For nonfiction, The Road to Reality and Gödel, Escher, Bach would be some examples.
