Didn't say anything about freedom of speech. And again: I'm not the one to talk to. I don't have any strong feelings on the topic, but if you do, you should take it somewhere that people who can do something about it will see.

I tried to find an existing discussion to help get you started, but couldn't. You can start one here: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues

It's easy to sit here on Hacker News and say "they should just..." Well, there's they. Go suggest it.

Coming up with a standard filter list for an international project will be a long, noisy discussion. You'll tread on internecine conflicts you had no idea about. Old wounds from past related discussions will come out. People will soapbox. The topic of the mere inclusion of the text of the slurs in the filter list will be 500 pages of yelling.

This is why I have no interest in discussing it. It probably won't go anywhere in a place where it actually could. It definitely won't here.
Erulabs is all about Bazzite shaking things up and bringing back the good old peer-to-peer days of the internet - it's like a digital revolution waiting to happen. And heyoni?

Then there's mikepurvis, who's been down the DIY media center road and found it's not all it's cracked up to be, making the dream of a simple, plug-and-play system super appealing.

while it's true that not all web applications leverage the React library, it's important to note that Next.js inherently supports React. However, the choice of technology stack depends on the specific use case and requirements of your project.

I fear reinforced concrete disease and sea level rise will make housing disappear at a faster rate than people for the next 100-200 years. Conventional reinforced concrete is not like traditional stone buildings that may last centuries. The rebar inside rusts on timescales about ~100 years, and many buildings built over the XX century will be in bad shape and very hard to recover by the end of this century.
Not only US. There are many other countries that forbid retroactive laws.
Yep. I got in the habit around the time I last lost a ton of weight (about 45lbs or 20% of my weight). Only way I could do it then was working out every day and eating under 1000 calories a day.

Obviously that’s not sustainable so I’ve leveled out and work out less because life.
Most people would be comfortable with the assertion that it is absurd to compare a fictional episodic cartoon animal comedy to real life human cannibalism in modern society. It seems you are among the exceptions.
> I already know my favorite 3-4 episodes of every show I've watched

I did try the site, but the 2nd "static episode" of the algo was a fantastic finale (Venom of the Red Lotus), and it made me realize I'm kinda like this too. I already knew the best few episodes.

I don't remember every show, and not always by name, but I think I remember the best episodes of shows I would bother discussing with friends.

Seems impressive!
First, Japan's entire history is a story of radically changing their culture. Adaptation and cultural syncretism is the norm, not the exception.

Also, the vast majority of immigrants to Japan will always be from other Asian countries. It seems like a stretch to assume none of their neighbors (from whom Japan adapted much of their own culture) share anything in common with them.

But of course, this isn't about Japan. It never is. This argument is always an orientalist proxy for Western xenophobia and racial prejudice. A polite way to say "I don't like the brown people in my country who speak a different language and worship strange gods, wouldn't it be nice if we could be more like the noble Japanese, who are willing to fall on their katanas and go extinct rather than suffer the impurity of foreign blood?"

Not setting the alarm is just part of the story though… to make it work, you also have to have a good sleep routine all around.

Or you can just wait until you hit your 50s and suddenly can’t sleep as long because everything hurts anyway. That’s been working for me.
> As far as i can see there is quite a lot of "quantum safe" encryption so what kind of historical data exists lying around with lots of value?

I find this statement funny, not at your expense.

In public discourse, speak about quantum encryption too early – such as within the last five years – and the common opinion on say Stack Overflow/HN/Reddit/among the outer circles of cybersecurity is "don't model a threat before you get there".

Now apparently there is a lot of quantum-safe encryption - not true, NIST barely came to a standard in the last year, which failed quickly, even though there are quantum-resistant strategies which have gained tentative adoption in companies like Signal and MullvadVPN. But interesting that this is a perception someone has now, and suddenly quantum computers are being put under popular scrutiny again, perhaps driven by advancements in inner circles and higher tiers of tech.

It's tiresome to see these discourses out of sync
Thank you! Fixed that typo.

When I read about Markov Chains and hallucination of LLMs, the first thing that comes to my mind is Reggie watts [0] performances, also remind me i used to do the same thing when i was bored in the classroom, but on my paper notebooks,just nonsense that seems plausible, it was kind of entering in a meditative state, it felt good. when i discovered watts i thought to my self, 'what?! I cloud have done that for a living?'.

Nice. Your work eliminates jobs and transfers their salary to the business owner! Seems more like bean counting than tech.

Would be nice if there was more focus from software tech on making more opportunities for people rather than the trend of eliminating more humans from the workforce.

You are doing USBMIDI you can use

Is this really different from what we've always dealt with? We have ghost stories, drawings of monsters, fiction books, staged photos, etc. The history of fiction goes back as far as non-fiction.
>The reality is that web is fast enough

No its fuckin not.
We have devices running literally billions operations per second, orders of magnitude faster then what we had just few years ago, yet they struggle with rendering websites which comes down to presenting some good looking text.
It's insane how my pc can compute entire 3d world with millions of triangles, 120 times a second, but it lags when I open few websites because some front dev crambed some 'cool' paralax effect onto it, or because facebook, (who literally invented react) can't handle it well enough to not make memory leaks everywhere.

Did Usability of the web moved forward since few years ago? Sure. But compared to what computers can actually do, it's insane how bad things are nowadays
>Is this basically Tauri, but with zig instead of Rust?

WebUI is language agnostic so I guess Tauri but not limited to Rust would be a better description.

This is awesome. Since Steamboat willy is officially in the public domain as of today.....

So, it installs in windows powershell https://i.imgur.com/1Yt1V5v.png - but attempting to run it just pops up with "what program do you want to open this with" - I tried it in powershell, Anaconda Python CMD, regular CMD/run as admin - all the same result.

How troubleshoot?

Could I run it in a docker more easily?

Running this on an android table might be fun - but the menu UX might need to be more ribbon-style?

I just threw up a ubuntu VM and installed it there: https://i.imgur.com/nbtmXwN.png

As I understand it, AES isn't particularly susceptible to quantum computing (similar to classical computing).

> 99 times out of 100 you are way overestimating the value of what you're delivering and people's expectations for it, and underestimating the value of time i.e. shipping quickly.

Thanks for your comment. I was diagnosed with ADHD as an adult late (after 4 x 2 hours sessions with extensive questionnaires and iq test). Originally I was really worried that I'd be incorrectly diagnosed with ADHD despite not having it so was reassured by how serious the process was.

One thing that jumped out at me though with regards to your comment about medicine. I started taking concerta and quickly noticed that if I'm the slightest bit sleep deprived, concerta doesn't amp me, it doesn't make me have more energy but instead it makes me sleepy. With it, I'm visibly calmer and quieter and I also have a lot less craving for chocolates (which I'd keep eating non-stop during the day). It's quite magical actually.

Thanks for your input. Being honest, my situation has been like this for so long now I’ve given up hope and lost interest in it ever changing. Used to my own loneliness nowadays so it doesn’t really matter. Fine with being someone who is only ever in the background of other people’s day.
Which popular frontend framework advertise their DOM mutation speed on their frontpage exactly? Most frontend frameworks I come across nowadays advertise their developer experience and their features, not their DOM mutation speed.

And when I say state manipulation I'm not talking about performance, I'm talking about the architecture and people working with the codebase. No one cares about state manipulation performance because as you said, it's a solved problem.
In this case, imperative with spread would be just as slow and no more readable.

The real issue is that this should have been wired up with an iterator. At that point, you aren’t using a for loop and your iterator might actually be faster with property tail calls.

> honestly how great was a community to begin with if as the only thing keeping it from becoming a hotbed of fake content is that the users didn't have the tools to fake it

It only takes a few users willing to post fake stuff to drown out a much larger number of real ones.

> I'm sure very few people would agree when I say that nothing of value has been lost, but honestly I think this is more about people's illusions about the online communities they engage in becoming harder to maintain than those communities becoming worse somehow.

You could easily do the same thing with HN.

Note that real contributions and moderation don't scale whereas fake stuff does scale. So nothing is proof against an avalanche of fakes.

The number of affordable still very powerful SBCs has grown to the point we probably need something like the rosettacode (.org) site, but aimed at comparing ways of obtaining the same tasks in a few chosen languages but on different hardware, for example how to flip a gpio, how to send a pwm signal to a mosfet, how to read this or that sensor, how to draw on graphics LCDs, communicate with RF modules, etc. followed then by a list of boards and method to accomplish the task on all of them using similarly named functions and variables when possible to make comparison easier. In some cases the code will likely be identical, while some lower level or optimized stuff will need to be more specific for a given hardware. A site like that could quickly become a place to go when looking for ideas and/or compare different SBCs. Opinions?

> But once the team gets to a size where that isn't possible, you have to implement and enforce process in order to make sure that those who don't have that skill can be effective at their jobs.

But why did the team need to grow to that size if they were highly effective before that? Doesn't the growth and the adoption of those that don't have the skill handicap everyone else?

I've seen quite a few teams kneecap themselves this way by essentially hiring and growing: the team would've been, net-output-wise, more effective staying as a small team and not hiring.
The official meshtastic app can only transmit text messages (max ~230 characters) plus location data (GPS). Optionally it can also transmit sensor data (see RAK WisBlock devices, where you can add sensors for temperature, humidity, air quality).
I met most of my close friends (about 20 people) in my mid 20s (I'm in my 40s now). I created a meetup group and ran it for almost 10 years. People would come and go from the group and eventually, a solid group of friends (and my spouse) came out of it.

I have 2 young kids, which makes things challenging. Half the group has kids and half doesn't. We make it a habit to reach out and get together at least once/month (much more during the holidays) and have an active Facebook group for random texts about something cool or scheduling the next get together.

I think the key is just initiating.

Idk. First, the obvious candidates: those with small, low quality text corpora. Second, I expect LLMs to perform less on long distance dependencies. English has a pretty strict word order, and the constituents are close to each other. There's also a lot of input available, so there are more large gaps to learn from. But (some) Germanic languages have some weird rules which allows constituents to move far away, so it's likely LLMs will make more errors there. Also, free word order languages might be a problem, although I've always suspected that those languages aren't that free in reality: speakers probably have strong preferences.

3nm finally going mainstream. Zen 5 and Zen 5C coming. Resurgence of Mini LED ( or basically LCD ) and is taking more market share in large size TV, not completely dominated by OLED as previously thought. ARM Cortex X5 finally catching up to Apple M2 / M3 in terms of IPC. x86 on Server remains strong, even though AWS is moving to everything Graviton. We may have seen the cheapest NAND and DRAM in the next 2-3 years ( and dare I say next 5 years ) and they will rebound to or at least stay a roughly current price especially NAND.

World Overview

Hong Kong and Mainland China officially enters into recession, we may see the rest of the world follows either in late 2024 or 2025. For a lot of people, this will be their first taste of recessions. Large part of the world enjoy stable growth since 2008. This one could be ugly.

UK Still trying to figure out whether it has officially Brexited or not. And still haven’t figure out its place on the International market. As they continued to “levelled-down”.

Taiwan will still be safe. Hot War still on-going. ( God I wish I am wrong ).

Full Manufacturing Chain forming just outside of China. South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Vietnam. And India. Japanese Manufacturing back in full force. MIJ to become a thing again.

There may be another pandemic coming from China.

Others and Wishful Thinkings

FreeBSD usage picking up.

I can finally register a .web domain name.

We see the Fall of All Big Tech apart from Microsoft. And Windows 12 may be surprisingly well designed.

The world see more appreciation for Nim 2.0, Zig, Ada and Crystal.

Ruby Rails makes a come back.

More frontend moving to Turbo / LiveView like development. Browser makers finally cares more about interactive web page rather than full blown web apps.

JPEG XL gains momentum, and hopefully a video codec based on it.

GPU design that put more focus on Nanite.

x266 releases, along with official VVC decoding in FFMpeg.

The return of AirPort Extreme with WiFi 7. And Time Capsule for iOS.

5Gbps Ethernet becomes the norm replacing 1Gbps AND 2.5Gbps.

We are still no where near Lv 5 AV or AGI but we see continuous improvement with ChatGPT and Generative AI.

Rapid switching to 5G so we are all better off.

The world finally give more respect to Technology outside of Software or Silicon Valley. i.e Technology that is not Software. From BioTech, ArgiTech, FoodTech, Construction Tech.

With the introduction of VisionPro, VR. The whole software industry finally put “latency” on their mind map. Everything right now is painfully slow.

And finally. Find time to work on my project and show it on HN.
Most quantum computer experts think that this is not the case, that it is very unlikely that quantum computers can solve NP-complete problems like travelling salesman more efficiently than classical computers. (In particular, the popular intuition that quantum computers “try a lot of solutions in parallel” is basically totally wrong, at least from the perspective of making a useful heuristic for what quantum computers are good for.) This is an older article, but its conclusions are still about right: https://www.cs.virginia.edu/~robins/The_Limits_of_Quantum_Co...
The hard part of programming should be the problem you're solving. Fairly frequently, the hard part of programming is all the incidental crap that gets in the way.

You change the existing system slightly and a bunch of not obviously related parts fall over. Someone updates the OS on the CI box and now you're dealing with dependencies with dubious ideas about semver for the rest of the day. Nothing changed overnight but now the performance bot is reporting a regression.

Actually, a superstar will welcome and mentor other capable "superstars". She or he will not have patience for one that expects to be taught everything. One thing they understand very well is while everyone won't be at the same level as them, helping other people skill up leaves them space to go do other interesting things as well

So what you have isn't a superstar. That's a jerk who will burn out fast and your management isn't responsive enough.
I don't see how Starbucks is going to trigger this. The NAT device is physically in the same building as the laptop, so the segment between the laptop and then NAT (which is what results in the difference in TCP/IP ping vs websocket ping) would be very short and undetectable.
