This is quite the hit piece, I would not expect such motivated content to make the HN front page. L

The page constantly refers to criticism of the Full Self Driving system "in passing" when FSD is mentioned. It also implies that features such as heated seats are a paid subscription option even if the hardware is installed - that is true of BMWs, not of Teslas. Even referring to the feature menu as "Elon Mode" is a swipe at the company's CEO, implying some god complex.

Is there not a neutral article available with the technical information but without the offhand commentary?
Google search now does this. The only way now to search Google for the actual terms you want matched is to put them all in double-quotes. Otherwise Google will ignore terms you provided even in the first result in order to show you some SEO-optimized content that matches synonyms or fewer terms.

I don't think the idea is that software should never change. If requirements change then software obviously has to change as well.

But over the course of 10 years a lot of things can change that have nothing to do with changing requirements.

Open source projects are abandoned or change direction. Commercial software gets discontinued. Companies get acquired. App Store / Play Store rules change. APIs go away or change pricing in ways that render projects economically unviable. Toolchains, frameworks and programming languages, paradigms and best practices change.

I think the point is that you don't want external changes that are unrelated to your requirements to force change on you. It's a good principle but as always there are trade-offs.

There is stable and then there is obsolete. The difference is often security.

And what if an important new requirement is easy to meet, but only if you bump a vendored library by seven major versions causing all sorts of unrelated breakage?

What if there aren't enough people left who are familiar with your frozen-in-time toolset and nobody wants to learn it any longer?

I think careful and even conservative selection of dependencies is a good idea, but not keeping up with changes in that hopefully small set of dependencies is one step too far for me.

I have three 2160x3840 27inch screens in a H layout, with the side screens vertical. I use FancyZones windows PowerToy to create drop zones on the side screens, and so can just drop terminals/slack/browser windows there.

Last time I checked I couldn't even get my all my upvoted stories/comments from the reddit API (restricted to last X years and/or Y votes).

I have a Garmin Venu 2 that acts like a thumb drive when plugged in on Linux (and I assume other OSs). The files it stores exercise data as are accessible with a few FOSS tools. You can also put music on it this way. I haven't tried to extract and view sleep data to desktop, but it will show sleep scores and charts on the devices screen. I believe most Garmin behave this way when plugged in, so can be used without cloud/app interaction.

I would be interested to know if others have interesting linux desktop software or workflows for working with this data when it comes off your watch

> The Lightning Network works. Not sure what you are referring to

Im referring to the fact that it theoretically works but is in practice not particularly widespread. Also, it’s supposedly capable of handling „millions of transactions per second“, but if that is actually working out remains to be proven.

> not sure what you want to say using your first sentence.

It’s just my annoyance with crypto bros being obsessed with one particular monetary system that played a role for some time while being mostly ignorant to the fact how and why modern currencies work.

This is where those naive obsessions with BTC supply being technically locked etc comes from.

SCA did this back in the J2EE/SOAP days. An SCA interface was just the interface but the boundary itself could be implemented either as an in-process plain Java call, a cross-EJB call, or a SOAP call, so that in theory one could be swapped out for the other. In practice IME, it never was but maybe I just never came across the right use cases.

It is. Their interest in AI isn't about how to make it cheaper or more effective, it's how to make it "healthier" and "safer" by which they mean more ideologically controlled.
If that is the case, we are fucked anyway.

There is no way 80% of the planet is willing to give up any comfort to stave off future ecological problems they cannot feel yet. We saw how much effort it took with global warming, and I doubt that will have made subsequent changes for the better easier. In fact, I suspect a lot of 'what, there is another thing wrong according to the scientific bozo's even though I can't see it' that will make people more resistant.

Actually reducing consumption globally won't happen. Not until it is too late. The best we can do is slow down consumption, and make consumption better. We have seen decent improvements in plastic free packaging. And power draw of devices is also getting much more attention.
One big point here is pricing in externalities. That will push people into the less damaging choices.

Not to say that we should give up, nor to say that we should be quiet about other issues, nor even to say that people shouldn't reduce their consumption. My point is that a global reduction of consumption isn't going to happen voluntarily, and therefore shouldn't be the solution we pursue.
Audi just released a statement that they're scaling back their EV efforts to develop more ICE models because "demand isn't there".

As a matter of standards compliance <https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9110#section-9.3.2-2>:

> However, a server MAY omit header fields for which a value is determined only while generating the content.

I find omitting Transfer-Encoding quite understandable and reasonable; the whole purpose of HEAD is to say “don’t bother doing the work that GET would trigger, I don’t care about exactness, I’m just getting a general idea”. Though I do find cases where Content-Length is omitted, even on static resources, disappointing. Saw that happen for I think the first time a few weeks ago (that is, a Content-Length that was present in GET but absent in HEAD).

But certainly I’ve seen more than a few 405 Method Not Allowed responses to HEAD, which is definitely bad.

Yep, he was there and issuing statements & reports before the invasion. His team had to leave because we were about to invade and it wasn’t safe to stay.

I truly can’t believe there are still people who buy the lies. They were lying about Afghanistan[1], needlessly because that war had plenty of support, so why would anyone suppose they weren’t lying about Iraq? FFS, half the important people in the admin signed and/or penned published documents advocating that the US look for any excuse to invade Iraq, in the late 90s. It was beyond plain they were bullshitting about the justification.

[1] example: the insane GI Joe playset diagrams of massive, secret, advanced underground bunkers they claimed that Al Qaeda had a bunch of, despite it being impossible to carry out that much earthmoving and concrete pouring (let alone buying all that equipment) without giving away the location to everyone with satellites. Tenfold as true if you tried to do that somewhere not right next to a city (because your supply lines for the huge hundreds-of-millions-of-dollars construction project would be even more plain, and the work itself would stick out like a sore thumb). It was clearly a lie.
Amazing way to gather patron attention
Good. We need to solve global warming a lot more than we need to reduce the kind of ecological damage done by dams, panels, and windmills.

If we refuse to choose the lesser of two evils, we will be fucked.
With no or minimal communication how is it possible to build anything new? In real world if you need to build something new and it requires 10 different companies to do that, it would be virtually impossible.
The first Turbo Pascal IDE, with compiler and debugger, ran as a .com file so all the code and data had to fit in a 64KB memory segment.
The example with experimental features is soo weird.
It is like the author knows why experimental features exist but trying to play confused to fit the narrative.

OK, nighty builds. So, some features could be coded, but haven't been tested for a long enough time to say "this feature is rock solid and the behaviour is good for all combinations of code". In the formatter, we probably would not wanna change the behaviour of a flag once it goes stable (and in the formatter there are always several ways to do anything, because it is just how code is).

So, there are more or less two options when adding new features: only merge a feature branch when you are 100% happy (that could make releasing hard) or have a feature behind a flag and document it is an experimental. In the real world - having feature behind a flag is good. For some reason people assume that open source projects have a huge team, and all their time is free. So, adding a new feature to a formatter is "easy and trivial" (and make that feature stable is "trivial" too).

Sorry, was quick to hit send - from our experience the AI will be a very permissive DM. It usually agrees with everything you say.

To add more structure and challenge to it, we took a hybrid approach of letting it do it's thing, while enforcing some strict rules in code.

Hope this helps!
We can do without beaches. We can give up some land, and some spawning grounds for fish. If it means we can help against global warming, it is clearly the lesser of two evils.
Thanks, you seem to get it. ;) My remarks were partly in jest, because I get a little sick of all these definitions. They seem to be used on purpose to make people believe or doubt anything, and that works because these words are so elusive. As programmers - I think most people here - we all know that naming is very important.

I don't want to be too rigid and I also like to play with names, but the use of the word AI is getting out of hand and laypeople and professionals alike are believing stuff that these programs are not (yet) capable of doing.

This started for me some 10 or 15 years ago with the word 'cloud'. I was out of the field for some time and had a hard time understanding what the 'cloud' was. The word 'smartphone' also comes to mind, although this one is less elusive.
Still burning O&G - the goal is to not which means you need that base load which means nuclear where hydro/pumped storage is not an option.

These are amazing people, and I like what they do, but they are still chasing the churn of newer hardware, which also introduces incompatible APIs. The incompatible APIs are often introduced commercially for business and not technical reasons, either out of ignorance, legal worries or in order to gain a market advantage.
Mcroservices at the very least require very high investment into proper CI/CD and observability. If you are not willing to allocate resources to get those right things are going to go badly.

I'm a total noob when it comes to graphical Linux environments, but isn't the issue with scaling caused by the applications themselves? Like GNOME only accepting integer scales, etc.

Setting X11 DPI worked just fine for me to achieve exactly the scale I want.
At least on OS X, using a free utility, I can set two apps to exactly split the screen with two key presses and one mouse click. ON a 16:9 it comes back to being an actually decent aspect ratio for reading text.

wow, Americans still have a knee jerk reaction to hinting at communism by describing land use policies in almost all non European and non central Asia cultures? or just by hinting at inheritance tax.

it's extra funny because the guy who probably inherited nothing is arguing against the tax with the guy who is likely a trust fund baby. this is comedy gold.
> Being unable to communicate what you have learned is a serious disorder and not a learning style issue.

It's absolutely a learning style issue if those teaching are not able to pick up on the issues with learning if the person being taught is unable to effectively communicate how they are struggling.

I spent years trying to explain to teachers why I did not understand some of the concepts they were telling me, and they would often tell me to just 'accept it' and move on. Bad teachers perhaps, but that's all part of the learning and others seemed to be fine... so that is a learning 'style'.

Your suggestion of 'serious disorder' is also misplaced.

I often have had the feeling that people tend to try to solve code-organisation issues with microservices. Sure you can code a tangled mess in a monolith, but adding TCP connections and Kubernetes to the problems you have probably won't make things better. Instead, rewriting some code to use whatever applicable design pattern probably will make it better.

An analogy that comes to mind is looking for a new house. Most people can't see through the current decoration and furniture of a house and imagine themselves living there in their own style. So real estate agents try to get rid of as many personal items and clutter.

It seems to me that many developers can't imagine how to refactor an existing messy monolith into a tidy monolith, but they can imagine an empty repository.
The obvious fix for this is better education and a good understanding of the meaning of words ind different contexts. It is a way better than broadly applying various labels to the point when they become completely void of any special meaning.

Greenwashing is an intentional effort to portray greenhouse gas emissions as safe by relativizing their contribution to the climate change. Calling natural gas natural according to an old tradition is not the same.
For laptops definitely. Screen above ~24"? I don't really think this is that relevant and if have multiple windows open side by side it's the opposite (16:9 is more ergonomic than 3:2,).
On the contrary, I have a 49" 32:9 monitor, and for a laptop it's wonderful. The support for a single monitor is just way better than any dual (or more) setup.

I can just connect it directly to my laptop, and it just works. When I had two displays I needed a docking station, and truth is most of those out there suck. Unless you go for the top models, and then you've lost all the money you saved on cheaper monitors. In addition you generally need a thunderbolt compatible dock, and that seems to come with it's own category of issues, assuming your laptop even supports it.

Also found ultrawide easier to configure hotkeys for windows management.
Daft question: would it be possible to attach an accelerometer (edit: or gyroscope) to the monitor and connect it to a script to update the display angle on the fly?
I think 27" 4k with some scaling is a good spot indeed.

32" 4k is nice as well, if you scale down to 2560x1440, or 3008x1692.
On 32" 2x scaling (1920x1080 is just too big, and native (3840x2160) is just too small.

But if money is no problem, 3x 24" 4k, 2x 27" 5k, or 1x 32" 6k is really the endgame.
That 2x scaling is just soooo crisp. :)
That's a really interesting point, I'll think about it.

There's a tension between "making it clear what the change is" and "making it clear what the old and new versions are".

One approach would be something like --[MOVED X: blah blah blah]-- ... +[FROM X: blah blah blah]++.

A more radical one is --[>>>]-- ... ++[<<< blah blah blah]++ where you actually delete the content from its old position, leaving only a marker.
There is a certain type of ex-software founder who likes the pose of philosopher king. They like to describe themselves as 'first principles thinker' but have never engaged in serious thinking since nobody challenges them on anything.

They often end up funding non-profits on AI policy, criminal justice or education reform with absolutely disastrous consequences for everyone who is not able to economically insulate themselves from the fallout. Typically, the things they end up funding espouse principles that fly in the face of everything that made them or their parents rich in the first place.

Everything I have seen and heard in interviews from this guy gives me this impression.

>They said thanks but no thanks, Melbourne doesn't need you - whereas tradesmen, plumbers, miners etc have no problem whatsoever moving there, year after year.

Well, tradesmen build houses, schools, and hospitals people and a growing society need. There's only so much demand and value for society that (non-SV) programmers add. You could survive in a world with only tradesmen and farmers, but not so much with only JS coders.

Programmers are valued in places like the US because US is the home to big-tech, an industry generating trillions in revenue for the US, but the US is the global outlier here. In other places of the world that don't have big-tech, programmers have much less value to society.

As a counter point, the danger of damns stops when the damn is empty. The danger of nuclear waste is on a longer time-scale. Hence it might be that there are future deaths due to current nuclear power that are not being counted.

I say might, because there is no way of knowing how many deaths will occur (or even statistically should be expected to occur) simply because we don't know what will happen to the nuclear waste.

I favor nuclear, but I'd love to see hard numbers on the 'headroom' nuclear has on deaths/GWH compared to dams, with some argument about whether long-term nuclear waste storage is likely to be less deadly than that headroom.

The 40% electricity is emissions free, but it has more adverse effects on environment than fossil fuels. Solar panels, once they break down its difficult to dispose of them without harming the environment. The metals in batteries like lithium, cobalt etc are very harmful for people and environment when they are mined. So not something much to be happy about. We need more innovation.
