I don't mean to make assumptions about your life or your conditions, but in scenario A you describe a reality where there are a meaningful number of people who would be content to sell their labor for less than $7.25 per hour. I do not find this believable, given how little that amount is in today's dollars. At the point that you're okay with working for, say, $5/hour, why work at all? What lifestyle permits that as an income? What percentage of people do you believe would be okay with this?

Additionally, you are describing an effect where removal of the minimum wage would result in more people working, but what of the wages of people who currently work for minimum wage? Clearly the jobs are economical at that rate, but I have a hard time believing that employers paying $7.25/hour would continue doing so if they weren't legally required to. I would be willing to wager my life savings that the loss in income associated with that would dwarf the amount of money being made by the hypothetical class of people you're describing.
Unlikely. Planes with GoGo's (Intelsat's) gear connect to specially-equipped cell towers with antennas mounted to the fuselage. (As far as I understand it, these are regular cellular antennas that point up instead of to the side.) Since these sat towers will present themselves as terrestrial LTE-capable towers, theoretically, this equipment should be able to use them as-is. (Software might need to be updated though.)

> The most priceless thing though is safety for your family. I read about accidents people had in their nice 5 year old gas cars, and it’s just sad to me that they didn’t see the options for what they were, and could have easily afforded a much safer car, but instead based their choices on bad information about supposed long charging times and supposed long lines at chargers.

Huh? On what basis do you believe EVs on the market today are safer than their ICE counterparts?

Oh, interesting! I heard other array programmers talking about jq, and (having not seen your website) went off to study the json transformation language, which is also kind of cool, but nothing to do with kdb or q. :)
Haha, I almost added a footnote explicitly excluding players/customers because this is way more of a grey area, but I didn't want to dilute the original message.

However, you're right. Player feedback is arguably even more important for indie devs than big-studio devs, since they're often operating on what feels fun versus operating on player data (especially from previous games, industry metrics, their own industry experience, etc) and getting that raw feedback of "is this actually fun?" is vital.

The big difference, however, is that the creators of indie games still have the "final say" on that game game. It's generally a Very Good Idea to listen to your players (and listen hard!), but it's rare that your studio will e.g. have its funding pulled if you _don't_ listen to them[0], unlike with (some) publishers and other stakeholders. That's a big difference IMO.

[0] With the obvious caveat of equating funding == sales when you try to release a bad game after not listening to players
I've found a use for APFS' copy-on-write cloned files.

I like to work with git worktrees, and I work on an app that has a large (2 gb) node_modules directory.

Previously, every time I made a worktree, I had to `npm install` to get a fresh node_modules, or copy the full directory, which was slow.

$ time /bin/cp -r node_modules /tmp/node_modules
/bin/cp -r node_modules /tmp/node_modules 1.98s user 58.26s system 63% cpu 1:34.17 total

The -c option to /bin/cp on a mac is "copy files using clonefile(2)", making clones instead of full copies. It's still not super fast, but almost a minute less of waiting for the copy is a nice improvement:

$ time /bin/cp -rc node_modules /tmp/node_modules_cloned
/bin/cp -rc node_modules /tmp/node_modules_cloned 0.43s user 29.85s system 79% cpu 38.211 total

The one downside is that GNU has an incompatible option for creating clones (`--reflink`), leading to this very ugly conditional:

I'm building Choir. Choir humanizes ChatGPT, augmenting the AI response with messages from humans that are relevant to your prompt. Each prompt you write into Choir gets saved to our database, so the more usage Choir gets, the smarter the Choir collective intelligence becomes.

I have worked with some catch logging data, and there is certainly some weird stuff in some of the data that points to something like that (but super interesting to untangle and figure out, from a personal perspective). It really is a game of finding clear, understandable regulations, but at the same time put a lot of work into checking whether they are upheld.

In an interview with Niklaus he was talking about a 500 page document...
> I wonder where are these people. Do you know any? Would you be "happy" to work for less than minimum wage?

I'd be very happy to work for less than the minimum wage if that's all my work was worth and the alternative was no job..

> Sure, gommunism is when minimum wage. Most of Europe is in fact gommunist today, while its bourgeoisie gets richer and richer by the year.

The root cause of this wealth disparity is the fiat money printing. The value of the units of currency are halving every decade without people realising, so most people have been getting an annual real wage cut for the last 53 years only offset by consumables becoming less valuable through efficiencies of production.
The prices of hard assets like real estate show the true extent of the currency debasement.
Why stop there? Why not harp on the 21+ laws, or the 18 to vote or the or the or the? Then you can take the same logic and apply it to why do we have laws that restrict anything? Very soon, it's anarchy
I wouldn't find it acceptible but also I don't do that. Like people said more like 15 minutes. There's some art to it - don't charge to full during the trip, and to reduce your trip time, reduce your velocity to lower than max safe speed.

I do find it would be reasonable to pass laws to force you to switch to an EV even if it causes you some inconvenience, so that the likely future of my children and their peers is better.
Hi esafak. I don't really care for competitors. In regards to use cases there are so many! Currently I am working on few tutorials on how to build different applications like a Hackernews clone with a real-time frontend. These tutorials are to bring light to the functionalities of the database and give users ideas. Yeah I don't know those companies, nor do I care to. I built and designed the database the way I wanted to use a database, simple as that. I have my own use cases for a transactional email service relaying what comes through an Observer to client webhooks for example.
i'd say predictive text/t9 was way faster than any other phone input method ever for texting. nothing else comes close imo, not even blackberry keyboards (unless you need more fine control over capitalisation and punctuation and stuff e.g work emails)

We use a combination of surprisingly powerful and effective things to deal with abuse (spam/phishing/etc). I'd love to show them off because some of them are very cool, but as an older gentleman that used to work at Geocities once told me (he works at the internet archive now), "don't train abuse people, don't let them figure out how you're finding them". Great unsolicited advice that I took to heart. It's always kind of an arms race, but I'm confident we can stay on top of things.

Maybe I'm naive, but things like UL or ROHS or GDPR or SOC2 seem analogous to me. Want to be a supplier for an organization that needs a certification? Then your product and all of your suppliers and all of your competitors need to be able to meet that requirement, and it's just a table stakes feature.
You have competitors whether you like it or not -- unless you don't care for users, either. A sibling commenter asked "Why not just use Couchbase?" If your answer is "figure it out yourself; I already wrote documentation" you are shooting yourself in the foot. Documentation is not marketing. Marketing means helping potential users understand why they should use your product rather than something similar.
I solved this issue by getting a 13" macbook air as my second computer. It is small and lightweight enough to be comfortable to use as a personal browsing and communication device in the situations where you'd probably be using your phone and trying to type too much on it like long group chats with friends. it is the ultimate portable typing machine for me when I don't want to be bound to a desk.

> I've never been faster and more accurate at typing on my phone than when these were a thing.

It's easy to believe the accuracy claim (after all, you can feel the keys and there's fewer of them) while doubting the speed claim (since you have to perform 1-3x the number of keypresses to get the same result).

Woah woah woah that's an extreme take. You don't know why she did what she did. You are pretending that something subjective (what type of media included in this article) is objective evidence that the author doesn't care about doing things the right way. That's quite a leap.
Seems extremely poor they couldn't have built a bulk export tool. The FAQ says documents have to be exported one by one.

Passkeys and OIDC are not directly related. If all you want is "authenticate to AWS" then yes, passkeys would work, but so would a simple password, or a TLS client certificate, or whatever other technology you like for authentication.

OIDC works for things like "use my employer's login to get access to AWS resources without having a separate AWS password".

For certain OIDC authentication implementations, you can actually use passkeys. Standard passkeys should work perfectly fine with Keycloak's WebAuthn implementation, for example, either as a second factor or as the first factor in the login flow.
Given there's a number of countries competing with their economies, they are subject to the evolution and survival of the fittest. If there was a better way to do things, if would occur naturally. Clearly, given capitalism gave birth to the largest economy of the world, it won't go away anytime soon.
> 12 language

Well, as this is also depends on parameters. What languages the team members know, what languages the problem domain maps to well, how much capital do we have, what's the schedule, what's the expected rate of modifications on the system, load, security and safety hardening requirements.

All bridges, tunnels, houses, roads, pipes, and dams are more similar than websites, Android, databases, videogames, and embedded software.

Mostly because the former had hundreds of years to settle down somewhat. (And of course there are huge advances due to materials science advances and because of better structural modeling, due to software advances.) And that settling down allows for time to develop models for the common scenarios. That's why there are engineering standards (building codes).
Looking for App Feedback
> The work you do on FPGAs is already a filter enough so that I don't think anyone is getting passed that and then giving up because the tools suck.

About 10 years ago I was doing some FPGA development in a startup. We were using Vivado. It seemed like we spent about 30% of our time working around Vivado bugs. I come from a hardware background originally and then got into software development (EDA tools) later on. After the startup gig ended I could've gone more in the direction of FPGA development. I decided not to because the tools suck and life is too short to deal with that day in and day out. And it's not simply that the FPGA vendor tools are some of the buggiest software known to humankind, it's that the FPGA vendors don't care to make them better.
We have an innovative cycle app- but the market is crowded. Looking for feedback to help us blow this thing up.

Don't judge the identity server space by Cognito, I beg of you. There are a lot of other players out there (I work for FusionAuth, one of them) who are working to make this easier.

Most have not been abandoned the way Cognito has. (Funny video on the topic: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x70EypnAH1Y .)

I don't know why Cognito hasn't seen more improvement. From the outside, it seems like CIAM would be worth investing in as a cloud provider. Say what you will about Azure and GCP, they both have CIAM platforms that see more love than Cognito (Azure AD B2C, Firebase).

> What’s insane to me is that it feels like nobody has actually managed to make this easy for developers yet. If they have, I don’t know about them.

There are definitely folks making it easier to add login/logout to applications (I see some of them pop up in sibling comments, and we are working on that at FusionAuth as well). But some of these are component libraries to proprietary SaaS applications. In this case you lose some of the power and standardization of OIDC. That works great for some use cases and not so good for others. The nice thing about OIDC is that almost everyone works with it (or with SAML). Certainly more than proprietary session based authentication providers.

I will tell you that as we are trying to make authentication simpler at FusionAuth, we have customers coming to us with pretty complicated use cases around federation, scale, automation, permissions and more. It's a balance to try to appeal to the developer who just wants authentication to work as well as the sophisticated customer who has these complex needs.
AMD is a showcase for why competition is good for consumers. I have little doubt that had AMD spent the last 30 years as the pc chip leader, it would have turned to all the exploitive and anti-consumer practices of intel and nvidia.

Dominant market leaders tend to lock down their position, while those who are not, must innovate and build relationships with consumers by other means, including support, or open drivers.
I'm just riffing, but it seems to me a reoccurring theme, and one fresh in my mind as I try to migrate from Windows to Ubuntu Budgie, but their lock down of Office and Windows means I must run an unwieldy full VM.

Special file types have been around in other file systems for a long time now.

For instance, Hard Links have been a thing on NTFS disks since the first version of Windows NT.

Deleting a hard link for a file on on an NTFS disk doesn't result in freeing any space, until you delete all the hard links as well as the original file.

There are several people in this thread explaining it is about 10x cheaper.

If you drive every day, a plugin-electric can save you a LOT of money. And that's before the savings in oil, brakes, and other maintenance.

I'm stuck with street parking, so it is much less appealing to me.
