Because US protecting global shipping is overexaggeration.

US protects US flagged shipping - non US flagged vessels got hit without US intervention during tanker wars for years without US lifting finger. MENA oil exporters had to reflag under US flag (pay US taxes/protection fees) to be eligible for defense. US didn't step up to end tanker wars until bunch of US sailers killed with USS Stark was hit.

Prosperity Guardian is happening right now because Maersk and other civilian shippers that DoD depends on sealift was threatening not to transit through area. Including the ones being paid and contracted by DoD, carrying military hardware. Likely for Israel. Including DoD Maersk ships, who basically "threatened" DoD that no Maersk ships would transit Red Sea unless US protects all Maersk shipping. US is pressured to protect shipping right now because they've offloaded so much sealift to multinational civilian sector, that is now undermining US DoD logistics to leverage US to protect all shipping, not just US flagged shipping.

PLANavy has assets in region, busy gathering USN antiship interception data. Entire reason they have Djibouti base for antipiracy deployment is because they know US can't be relied on for protecting shipping. There was UN taskforce for antipiracy in Africa not because US couldn't protect against a few Somali fishing boats but because USN doesn't do global shipping protection by default. Regardless PRC has little incentive to engage, Houthi has been largely discriminary, leaving PRC shipping alone. Unless it spills into broad regional war, PRC gets to quadruple dip. They get data on US antishipping performance. Lost cargo = more purhcases fron PRC factories. Lost ships = more work for PRC ship yards. More redirected maritime traffic around Africa = more work for PRC ship yards since you need more ships for same demand. Meanwhile, PRC shippers gets to go through red sea, on shorter/faster route, and charge premium. All by just not doing anything, because it's profitable, and they get to do nothing and profit because they're not mired in MENA shit show unlike US.
To do this you would need to have a comprehensive definition of "quality", and that's anything but easy, and it will be at least partly subjective. It's also hard to include omissions in your definition of "quality" (and again, what should or should not be omitted is subjective as well).

For example, let's say I search for "Gaza"; on one extreme end some engines might only focus on recent events, whereas others may ignore recent events and includes only general information. Is one higher "quality" than the other? Not really – it depends what you're looking for innit?

All you can really do is make a subjective list of things you find important and rate things according to that, and this is basically just the same thing as an anecdotal account but with extra steps.
Recently I've seen "small web" sites referred to generically as "tildes", despite some sites trying to claim that name for themselves (e.g. tildes.net).
What are you using to read/post to HN? That would likely be enough to run Cuis on. I've run Cuis on a Pi 2 and that was fast enough to provide a reasonable interactive development environment with a useful amount of memory. Running without a GUI is generally not likely to lead you in an interesting direction. The thing to understand is that the Squeak VM expects to encapsulate 'high level' hardware including a bitmapped display, keyboard, mouse and a sound device. Anything less than that and you're putting yourself more in the role of VM developer instead of Smalltalk developer. (Honestly, if one were starting from scratch today there are more interesting places to start than the Squeak VM as its lack of SMT support is becoming a crippling limitation. This is a design limitation of the language/environment and can only be overcome fundamentally rethinking a couple of core concepts.)
"Not reacting" how? There's been an ongoing war for almost a decade now.
Been thinking to just get a Synology with ECC support, but what I find weird is that the CPUs they use are 5+ years old. Feels wrong to buy something like that “new”

Same with TrueNas mini
Most people interested in using social networks have no interest in running a WordPress site or care/know about the details of an OS outside of the fact that it allows them to access the internet.

Self-hosting a social network brings them no benefit.
Lemmy, a Reddit clone?
AKA the entire point of the market. Distributed, decentralized decision-making.
Great point! I'm thinking of analysis courses that begin with measure theory, also differential geometry and calculus on manifolds (though those definitely can be undergraduate). Some graduate level math-in-engineering topics are things like linear systems theory, convex analysis and optimization, nonlinear systems, etc.
Jeez yeah do not like this
In lay men’s terms this is called ass kissing.
The US has virtually zero dependence on trade through the Red Sea area. This is more about assisting allies and maintaining regional hegemony.
Thats not what I am saying. Im asking what you are advocating for and against?

Are you saying we need more wars to prevent wars? Economic solidarity in sanctions against bad actors?

It is easy to say "wars bad, peace good", but more difficult to articulate an actual plan for preventing them and promoting peace.
Why don’t the people in charge of measuring just agree on some unit of resolution?

I think it would be easier to read if the line spacing of the titles were much smaller, and similar design tweaks to help the eye group and prioritize information. It's a little mentally painful to read compared to the old styling.
The Maidan Massacre Trial and Investigation Revelations
By funeral are you saying the field is currently moribund? Is it going through some kind of crisis? I had a few control/systems professors in the past, what appealed to me about it was it was a kind of "theoretical engineering" approach to engineering.
That fixed it! Many thanks.
A kernel level invasion of privacy is required to stop flying players? That doesn't sound right to me. Not to mention that apparently it isn't working if your friend is witnessing it.

So players of those games are sacrificing privacy for no security at all by the sounds of it.
Please tell that to Github, where I first created my most simple/straightforward named account (very similar to my real name) using my company's email address. Company folded. Now I can never get my simple named Github name back.
For those interested in repurposing a small mini-PC with no Mini PCI ports available as NAS, I recently purchased a ICY IB-3780-C31 enclosure (USB3.1 to 8xSATA), and although I still have to put it in operation (will order new disks soon), I tested it with a pair from my spares and can confirm it works out of the box with both Linux and XigmaNAS (FreeBSD).
Just beware that although it can turn back on after the connected PC goes to sleep and then wakes up (the oddly named "sync" button on front panel does that), it doesn't after a accidental loss of power or power outage even if the connected PC is set up to boot automatically, which to me is quite bad, therefore having recently moved to a place where power outages aren't uncommon and can last longer than a normal UPS could handle, I'll probably modify the enclosure by adding a switchable monostable circuit that emulates a short press of the power button after power is restored. That would mean a big goodbye to warranty, so I'll have to think about it, but the problem can indeed be solved.
64k watermelons ought to be enough for anybody.
The quality of the content, at least. Reddit grew by having the co-founders use sockpuppet accounts to cross-post things from other link aggregator sites.
A Discord server seems to meet many of my “small social network” needs. The hacker spirit of this post is fun but it can be hard to get friends to value it as much as the person running it might.
If you're interested in running SteamOS on a Linux PC, I'd recommend: https://github.com/HoloISO/holoiso
If you have an network card over PCIe then there may be an issue with the card. I have never had an issue reaching low sleep state, you can modify WoL behaviour too. Wifi is, again in my experience, uses significantly more power. I have seen 3-5W and usually switch if off.
I’ve been professionally making database since 1997 and “natural” primary keys was an antipattern even back then (along with the int sequence since it only allowed 2 or 4 billion).

Socials change. Emails change. Seemingly natural, unchanging things change and mess up all the foreign key relationships.
JSX on the server doesn't make sense to me.

It makes sense in the browser because it was made to mimic the dom api. But the interface between the browser and server is text.

When using jsx in the server you're extremely limited. You cannot just use any html tag unless the framework has a specific solution for it.
> “There is something so vulnerable and frightening about doing your own thing, because it’s your fault if it doesn’t work. And then there’s this other kind of work, where you’re paid an extraordinary amount of money, you’re the hero before you walk in the door, you’re not even held that accountable, because you have a limited amount of time, and all you can do is make it better.”

This quote from Frank resonated with me as very similar to software dev. It’s so much psychologically easier to work a day job than even small side projects. And that’s for a variety of reasons but I normally focus more on the “mechanical” obstacles like context-switching and the difficulty of shapelessness. But with enough reputation your job can also give rise to something of a “risk-free” external-affirmation loop that your brain doubtlessly pushes you to keep spinning.
The size of the community definitely correlates with the quality of content and culture. It seems to peak around 2-5K.
You can buy a domain 10 years at a time. If you forgot to renew it one year ahead, the domain probably wasn’t important enough for you.
I suppose they are referring to black box methods like those based on deep learning.
Disagree with that statement. Social media started it's decline when they became platforms. That's the thing ruining it. Facebook was fun-ish when it was just friends posting party pics and became bad when it started to become a one directional platform for non personal accounts.
I don't like using email as an identifier because I never know when/how Google could just arbitrarily delete my account. I've looked into alternative email providers but none seem to offer a customer support number where you can actually speak to a human. If anyone knows of one, let me know!!
A police officer once told me officers liked having something concrete and easy to catch someone with. His mode of thinking was "if someone is willing to risk jail for something as simple as weed, imagine what else they'd do for a greater reward"
It’s overkill for personal networks, but as others mentioned if you manage a fleet of devices of various types (mobile vs desktop vs laptop). Then managing connections via profiles is the way to go.

Push updated profile via MDM. End user should transparently receive the updated profile before logging into corp network.

No reconfiguration required on the user end. Reduced or no calls to internal tech support.

Personally, I just use the method you describe. Post a QR code for my guest network and be done with it.
Ask HN: Has anyone tried using a TCP Handshake as a pickup line

You can yes, but they're also primarily focused on following users. Can you disable that part?

I'm no ActivityPub expert but I'd want a software that does not publish individual user actions to activitystreams, only if they're done on a topic. And then you can only be notified of the action if you subscribe to the topic.

Kinda exactly like how reddit works but without the option to follow user accounts, that came much later.
It depends on both. Anti-cheat used by Destiny 2 is supported, but Bungie needs to allow it first.
I don't think it's an issue with the card. It's a combination of ethernet and PCIe features that make this happen. There is a standard called "energy efficient ethernet" that makes it not happen, but my switch doesn't do it.
Ha! First: I appreciate the detailed and thoughtful reply, even if I feel wildly judged.

It's distinctly possibly that you're simply "better" at reverse engineering than I am, which really just means that you might do it frequently and I might do it a few times a decade. This isn't going to keep me up tonight, because my identity isn't tied to being someone who reverse engineers things.

That said, I am pretty thrilled with this solution. I launched a web-enabled version last night and so far about 1100 people have used it to convert 6800 files after I replied to some posts on relevant musician forums around the web.

In my defense, what you're not taking into any consideration is that until 48 hours ago, I'd never looked at the MIDI spec or opened a MIDI file, before. You clearly have a huge amount of domain knowledge that I don't pretend to have.

I also, shocking as it may seem, haven't worked with binary formats in over a decade. I'm a web developer. Binary formats aren't an alien mystery to me, but all of the tools for working with them had to be re-learned as I was working on this.

Anyhow, don't fall into the trap of equating typing speed with the time it takes to learn a domain and consider (design) an approach. If I could think at the speed I can type, John Carmack would have nothing on me.

In the end, I absolutely did get lucky. The proprietary format was, as you proposed, a bunch of 1 track/format 0 MIDI files, bounded by hierarchy metadata that was discarded.
How do you keep track of all local, state, and federal laws?

Since I stopped using Facebook, my "Family" Whatsapp group is almost the only way I have to keep in touch with my extended family. Several of us post regularly, exactly because we only want our relatives to see our posts.
Both, that's the whole point of these models. Also size compared to the distance is true to scale.

The difference with Tether is that its value is ostensibly pegged to the dollar, with each Tether being backed 1:1 with real dollar reserves. So its price doesn't float with supply & demand. Instead, for each Tether that is "locked", it's one less person who has a claim on Tether Ltd's bank reserves.

It's debatable whether Tethers are actually backed by dollars 1:1; people have long suspected that Tether Ltd mints them out of thin air based simply on promises (i.e. fraud). And occasionally the price has dropped below $1 as suspicions grow and folks try to exit Tether. So it's good for the company to have Tether holder accounts locked, as it means they have fewer liabilities and less chance of a bank run.
Correct it was not. I let it expire. I forgot the Twitter account was registered with it. Later when I needed to relogin and couldn't remember the password, I couldn't do a password reset.
Looks cool!

If it gets support for ollama or the llama-cpp server, I'll give it a go.
People have the wrong mindset about all this. The most continuously integrated / continually deployed code process in the world is desktop publishing. You draw. You press print. Something prints.

Contrast to printing per se: You have some text and graphics. You do wire frames. Now you have to decide about the next part of the process: are you going to go with litho or a more traditional layout process? Now you do either cut & paste or cast / etch / burnish plates and / or masks. Now you print, which actually involves doing multiple prints in different colors which all have to line up. (And that's the simplified version, it's a lot more complicated than that.)

Desktop publishing is actually a code development process. A Postscript(r) printer knows a programming language called "postscript" which interfaces to something in the printing engine which is called the "raster image processor". Postscript programs have libraries, and the printer gets transpiled code for the RIP to execute. (Does this sound like your web dev shop?) The location of the RIP has meandered back and forth on the workstation <-> server <-> print engine continuum due to various factors; this looks a whole lot like the compute / display continuum and the endless debate about how smart a display device needs to be.

Now, the color is never quite as good with DTP, mach banding, dithering, blah blah blah. Like I tell my wife, the artist, the only person who knows that's supposed to be insane blue, and that over there is outrageous orange is you. (When she prints cards she secretly does hand touchups with the true pigments which are a mote in her mind's eye.)

For most things on the planet, normal people will settle for desktop publishing's shittiness. What's not shitty about DTP is the democratization. Instead of one person publishing to a million, it's (potentially) one to one.

I wish, I truly do, that all of this mattered for the web but it doesn't. The web is largely free, and at the scale of free everybody gets the same unique experience. On the other hand if I have a $1,000,000 warehouse facility even if there are 100 people working there I want them to have the best experience possible. I'm going to tailor that experience based on job function, where in the facility they operate, what they do. If someone is missing a finger, they should have an interface which takes account of that. $50,000 piece of machinery with one user? Optimize that user to optimize that machine. Welding gloves, or gloves covered in fish guts? Special interface for you too.

A good low code solution comes with OT drivers, speaks to SQL and microservices; produces true and correct (legally speaking) audit / transaction / snapshot logs (because if someone gets poisoned by the product or loses a hand working with the machinery...); has MES (workflow) as a low code function.
Standard should be - tool tells you where it's configured, how to change the config, and choose a 'standard' default config, such as XDG.

Assuming you aren't doing weird things with paths, I can work around 'dumb lazy' developers releasing half-assed tools with symlinks/junctions, but I really don't want to spend a ton of time configuring your tool or fighting its presumptions.
He was doing it for the money (at least at the end)! That and the psychological safety of not doing his own things.
The concept is thriving though, it's group texts, dm groups, emails, chat apps.

There is just no reason to go onto an app for it
How does a department store bathroom janitor benefit from multivariable calculus, complex analysis, partial differential equations, linear algebra, probability, vector fields, transformations of time to frequency, ad infinita?

He goes on to become something other than a janitor - at least that worked for me.
You need workstation chipsets to have ECC on intel desktop CPUs.

And yes they start at around 500.
I'm sure they've considered it, but have they considered it enough? I dunno, the back-and-forth over the extinction status of the ivory-billed woodpecker gave me pause about this sort of thing. It was considered extinct for many years, then was declared not-extinct based on a single video of a single bird flying away from the observer at a fair distance through the trees. (Or at least that was the only 'hard' evidence. There were also testimonials from expert ornithologists that they had seen it, and/or heard its call.) All of this made me think that the standard of evidence for these things is not all that high.

There's a gap between extremely talented and whatever Ford does. It's like comparing IBM and Open AI. IBM is full of smart people but we're kidding ourselves by drawing an equivalence.
Flying is like the physical internet, a true miracle in human evolution, step in and in a few short hours you step out on the other side of the world. And yet the insane complaints about lack of comfort, especially in Y, blows my mind. Finally some sanity in a thread about 192Y easyJet A320s.

I'm self-employed and I run a website for a living. The website is about the area where I live, but I could run it from anywhere. I'm gone about a quarter of the year.

I don't offer services, so I am not bound to a place or time zone. I do have online meetings once in a while, but they can be moved around.

I still keep social hours, although I'm not a stickler about it. If it's sunny outside and it's about to rain all week, I can work later.
Oh no, it is only for resetting password. Like in addition to asking for email.
Here's where my Emacs is putting the most effort when it comes to completion: shell sessions.

In my line of work (infra / automation) I may not write any new code that's going to be added to some project for later use for days, sometimes weeks.

Most of the stuff I do is root cause analysis of various system failures which require navigating multiple machines, jump hosts, setting up tunnels and reading logs.

So, the places where the lack of completion is the most annoying are, for example, when I have to compare values in some /sys/class/pci_bus/... between two different machines: once I've figured out what file I need in one machine in its sysfs, I don't have the command to read that file on the other machine, and need to retype it entirely (or copy and paste it between terminal windows).

I don't know what this autocompletion backend is capable of. I'd probably have to do some stitching to even get Emacs to autocomplete things in the terminal instead of or in addition to the shell running in it, but, in principle, it's not impossible and could have some merit.
The NUC and Optiplex aren't bad either. There are also very good AsRock boards (I can't remember what the modern ones are called but H110T is one, I used this for a bit, idled at 6W, laptop memory and power brick). But Fujitsu is the S-tier.

In practice, I found I needed a bit more power but you can get some of the Fujitsu boards with a CPU for $30-40, which is hard to beat.
