I dont think anyone is denying that remote can be great with the right culture. The claim is that building that culture is much more difficult when remote. Some companies just dont have the leadership needed to pull it off. Its not like the culture at those companies is great in office, but in my experience it is significantly better.
It is really cool. It would be interesting to make the speed proportional to the either the number of squares owned or the square root of that. Because right now as the area the ball owns gets smaller, the number of hits will increase at the same speed.
They think, maybe rightfully so that this hurts the out group more than the in group (minorities), disclaimer: I'm a white male, except say that group is black or Hispanic, and have families that tend to vote the opposite way, then they're in effect hurting their own power hold by forcing more births.

They're so worried about immigrants taking jobs what about the anti abortion baby boom making jobs more scarce in 18 or 20 years, and changing whole political landscapes?
I work with students learning to code, some of whom use AI in various ways. I can definitely see AI becoming a valuable tool for them in the future, but most students are currently ill-equipped to take advantage of it.

The most common error I observe from students is not providing sufficient information to get useful results. They'll omit what language or libraries they're intending to use, or restrictions on the set of language features they are or are not familiar with. Because of this, they'll get confident, often correct, responses, which are entirely unhelpful for the work they're doing.

The other issue they'll run into is over- or underestimating the capabilities of tools like ChatGPT. The first time they run into a problem which it isn't immediately able to solve they often give up on using AI as a tool entirely.

I do think AI has value for learners, primarily in an "explainer" role. Allowing students to take a piece of code and ask "what does this do" to get a plain English explanation is extremely powerful. It also can act as a substitute for documentation, as new learners are often disinclined to parse through official documentation, which is rarely beginner-friendly.
This looks really cool! I feel like we need more libs where we have bindings to native code where CPU intensive tasks can run. I've been meaning to create a fast local search lib like fuse.js, but native.

Nor should default search engines be allowed, be it on browsers or on entire operating systems.

Defaults are a powerful mechanism of platform dominance.

Google should also not be allowed to dictate how cookies and tracking and web standards work. They're clearly trying to set themselves up as the only company that can do online advertising with measurable results.

It's actually insidious how Google can ride on the bandwagon of "cookies are scary" to get exactly the outcome they want.
I quote that exact part of the documentation in the post. I also talk about the difference between "Device encryption" and "BitLocker Device Encryption"

My argument isn't that this isn't documented. It's that it is a bit counterintuitive.

My points are:

1) It would be best if Microsoft just asked if you wanted encryption if you create a local account. This is what Apple does in this situation. I imagine a large portion of the people who are creating local accounts on Windows 11 Home are the sort that want to manage their own keys.

2) If you are in that set of people, you should double check your setting if you never thought about it before, because it's easy to miss.
> That at least tells me who is the buyer and what benefit I will get

That is our problem. Taking a software product global (i18n/localiation/marketing) targets multiple personas and buyers (managers, developers, translators, designers, etc). We started with a dev-focused line but that didn't work for everyone else.

Are product pages clear(er)?

IIRC they swept because Hugo membership is open and they made a coordinated effort to join and sweep those categories. The idea of a coordinated anti-diversity effort pissed off a lot of people. For a few friends of mine who are lifelong sci-fi nerds, it was motivation to finally join Hugo so they could vote “no award”.

Do I read between the lines here that the default setup for home users (who have a Microsoft account) is to have an encrypted drive, but Microsoft gets sent a copy of the key...?

> fetuses are not babies...

This probably is the central question on this topic:

* When does the gamete/zygote/embryo/fetus/infant/whatever go from being not-human to being human?

Next:

* Just because it is/may be human, is it owed anything? [0]

Peter Singer for example has argued (in the past?) that even up to ~two years of age, the 'entity' should not be considered human:

> In Practical Ethics, Singer argues in favour of abortion rights on the grounds that fetuses are neither rational nor self-aware, and can therefore hold no preferences. As a result, he argues that the preference of a mother to have an abortion automatically takes precedence. In sum, Singer argues that a fetus lacks personhood.

> Similar to his argument for abortion rights, Singer argues that newborns lack the essential characteristics of personhood—"rationality, autonomy, and self-consciousness"[65]—and therefore "killing a newborn baby is never equivalent to killing a person, that is, a being who wants to go on living".[66]

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peter_Singer#Euthanasia_and_in...

The various positions on the topic, if taken to their logical end, may lead to conclusions that folks may not realize if they haven't thought about it thoroughly:

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophical_aspects_of_the_a...

[0] Thomson for one argued that we do not,[1] and even if you were (e.g.) in a cabin in the woods,[2] and one day there was a bay left on your front door, you could step over it and without any moral qualms

[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Defense_of_Abortion

[2] > Some philosophers, like Thomson, think so, but very many philosophers disagree. If I live alone in the woods and wake one day to find an infant on my doorstep, am I obligated to care for it? Or may I simply step over it and go on about my day, until it dies from exposure and neglect? To think I am obligated in justice to help it, as a great many people (philosophers and non-philosophers alike) do, is to think we owe things to other people simply because they are people. And if we can owe things to other people simply because they are people, then Thomson’s argument falls apart. If the fetus becomes a person long before birth — as even Thomson concedes — and if we can owe things to people simply because they are people, then we can owe things to the fetus as well, long before birth. https://www.dallasnews.com/opinion/commentary/2022/06/05/phi...

And the moment china stops US companies from buying silicon, the US will throw a fit.
This wasn't a question being posed to HN readers, it's a StackExchange post.
I've been looking for a job recently, and almost every applicant tracking system I've been shoved through requires an account. The ones that use "vanity" domains (like `companyname.superats.com`) require a unique account for each of those domains. I have something like 40 new accounts on services I'm never going to use regularly or consistently once I succeed, just in the last couple of months :( A few of those jobs actually required that I go through a specific resume-crafting-via-AI service with no other way to apply.

Now I get emails from at least a dozen services several times a week saying I'd be a perfect fit for positions that are in-office but not in my province (or even country sometimes), that are not things I'm interested in (retail lead in a piercing shop, for example), and are not things I'm even remotely qualified for (chemical engineer has popped up a couple of times, weirdly).

Not only do these systems suck, they're invasive, annoying, and counter-productive to the job searcher in many cases. If I could only have "guest" access to apply for that specific job....
I’m curious about trading on your supply chain partners.

Can Apple buy stock in a chip manufacture before they sign a deal with them?

Can they short them before not renewing a contract?

Another way of asking, is trading other companies based on insider knowledge from your company legal?
I thought it would be neat to have a physical copy, but holy crap: they're selling the second-to-last copy the have on hand for $5,000: https://irdial.com/conet.htm.

There's a misunderstanding in the article and the comments worth clarifying for people on SAE/WPA3 and the 6Ghz/6-E Bands.

WPA3 is only required when operating on the 6ghz bands.

For 802.11ac/ax its not required on the 5ghz bands.

So it is possible to spin up an AP on 6ghz with SAE only, and another AP on 5ghz in WPA2/3 mixed mode. It's not an all or nothing choice for the pi which first of all only supports 802.11ac and secondly does not support 6ghz with the builtin wifi card.

In terms of range and capabilities we've found the mt76 series to be very reliable and support wifi6 and 6-e on the pis with speeds easily reaching 600mbps.

These are the A8000 cards from netgear and the ALFA AWUS036AXML. They're pretty good for what they are. I only wish they were Dual Band Dual Channel.

WiFi 7 will see clients gaining Multi Link Operation capability, they'll be able to simultaneously hit 5ghz and 6ghz and 2.4ghz bands for 2-3x throughput.
Great feedback. I'll forward it to Nils, who is responsible for communication. Reply from him should follow on Monday
The EU didn't wake up to the massively critical gas dependency on Russia, what makes you think it will wake up to core tech dependency to the US.

That ship has sailed for the EU. We just accepted that all the cool SW comes from the US and we just buy it from them instead of making our own. Who cares about SW jobs in the EU anyway?

Oh well. It's not like you have the right to recoup or profit from buying a house. You paid what it was worth to live there at the time. It's a place to live, not a stock.
> Epic would be a bad example, they took the fight for their own exploitative empire.

No, Epic is a good example, at least if they would have been successful in their objective. Financial motivation of companies or individuals is definitely the best cause for anti trust as it clearly shows someone is really affected rather than anti trust which just sounds good on paper.
Isn't this collateral damage of waging war with a terrorist organisation embedded in civilian population? I don't this this counts for genocide, as sad as the results are...
Like the card game, "War", it seems to self-regulate that way. I assume neither side will ever win.
An alternative to the rekeying interval is potentially a DFS channel being used and a radar or causing a channel switch.
Exactly. It's literally called "insider trading". There's nothing "insider" about an customer discovering something about the company's product while using it. The source of the information was not from "inside" the company.
It was evident from the complete disregard for scalability and amateurish dev and ops processes that Teams was not regarded as a serious project right until COVID began and the org pretty much spent all of 2020 fighting fires to keep up with the pressure. In the years that followed, the org likely quadrupled in size to keep up.

Teams was very much the sleepy rest-and-vest corner of the company that people transferred into to quiet-retire. Teams is not just a reskinning/re-clienting of SfB's backend. They are separate systems.
Saw them get kind of intertwined briefly.
Why? I would imagine life on Jupiter’s moons might be something similar to these creatures, for example.

It looks like pasta shapes are patentable [1], but I wasn't able to find a patent for this specific pasta shape on Google Patents.

On the podcast, they talk more about the process of creating the cutting die and how much that costs, etc. Also, they had some trouble finding a pasta mill to make the exact shape they wanted. So, even if it's not patented, it might not be profitable to just copy it. After all, most other shapes are cheaper and no "real" pasta company is going to get into a PR fiasco just to sell a different shape out of the 100s they already have.

Great post!

You should submit a Hacker News post for it!
I'm surprised that the general sentiment here is that Teams is terrible. I've been using it for a very long time and have had almost zero issue with it. I prefer it in most cases.

We are currently moving from Teams to Slack at my workplace and I miss the ability to view my full calendar, join meetings, schedule meetings, share common files, and call others all from one application.

Is there another application that does all that Teams does but better?
> The latter sounds like it would be iterative in exactly the same way

I think you're comparing different things.

The alternative to "create a new service" is "refactor existing service iteratively".

The alternative to "slowly migrate" is ... nothing. You don't need to do this if you refactor the existing service (incrementally).

If the service has state (like DB), then this "slowly migrate" usually becomes crazy complex.
"Safety" collars still get stuck. Sometimes the mechanism can get wet and freeze stuck.

And I call bullshit on your 75% number for cats. That has to include false alarms where cats are just out for a really long time which is rare, but it happens. In those cases, the cat will just show up at some point completely unharmed all on its own. Usually it's owners freaking out because it hasn't happened before. Another common thing is some asshole in the neighbourhood takes it upon themselves to feed your cat, and it starts hanging out there for days at a time.
Firefox renders group titles using bold italic font while indenting the items under it, so it looks like a header.
this is a good post, but there's missing context about the kinds of situations where this approach can work, and what distinguishes them from situations where this kind of incremental long-term refactor approach is unlikely to be feasible.

contexts that could make this approach more feasible:

- it's technically feasible to incrementally transition from the current state to the target state. there's a variety of safe stopping points where the system can be in a weird hybrid partially-refactored state, and continue to function, pass QA and ship.

- the changes that need to be made in order to transition from current state to target state are internal to a single component owned by one team, and don't require changes to any external APIs / interfaces, or large-scale coordinated migration activities by internal/external consumers or dependencies or users

Movement is relative, momentum is not. Run as fast as you can and then come to a screeching halt where you lean backwards. You can’t do that on treadmill. You might be able to simulate the screech and the lean by moving you on the treadmill, but the rest of your body can feel that relative motion.

Technically he wouldn’t be a tipper (vis a vis the stranger on the other side of the fence) even if he were speaking English. To be a tipper one has to have intent to share the information inappropriately. I only included the language bit to make it clear he was taking some level of precaution, and had a reasonable expectation that he was not spreading the information around. Even carelessness does not make one a tipper vis a vis a stranger, IIRC. But it’s been a couple decades since law school, so I could be wrong, laws could have changed, etc.
Probably not. A pasta tube is the easiest shape to make by extrusion (and difficult to make by hand) and it was likely the first thing they tried after thinking of using extrusion to make pasta.
I have bi-dir sync from/to two computers, one running Windows 10, the other Linux, using Google Drive as buffer. All data are encrypted client-side because I don't want Google to know my business. But the sync is every 30 min, not immediate. I have no fancy GUI over it, like synchthing etc. just plain CLI command triggered by cron and the task scheduled.

"9 meses de invierno y 3 de infierno" (9 months of winter and 3 of hell) - an old saying from my old city in Mainland Spain. -5C in winter, 40C in summer. Also thunderstorms, golf-ball sized hailstorms, prolongued droughs and quite a few wildfires.

Is that extreme enough by your standards?
it’s not a great business model because it’s a big space with a small number of people at a time… and the games are fun but more arcade like due to needing to get people in and out of there

I use a case that slides on to a tag collar like a belt loop. Like these: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BGQGZLP6/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b...

Also, while air tags will help in some situations, they are useless in many others. I use them because I don’t think it will hurt, but I wouldn’t count on them. (I also have a Fi collar for my risky hound, which is a GPS collar. GPS collars also don’t always work.)
In the specific hypothetical case mentioned, wouldn’t that constitute “public” information if it was overheard in a non-controlled location?

Us Italians, we are very conservative about food, sometimes irrationally so. Maybe because my favourite has always been the rotella/ruota, I tend to try exotic shapes pretty often - recently I had some radiatori and they can be pretty good with amatriciana or other "strong" sauces.

This said, I think the actual pasta quality will always be more important than any fancy shape. Cascatelli that overcook in an instant will always be worse than some old-fashioned penne that don't.
There's a famous table in the AD&D Dungeon Master's Guide where, if you came across a prostitute, you could determine what kind of prostitute it was. AD&D was weird and arbitrary and unbalanced and a mess. It was also... more fun to explore.

It’s contingent on the fact that being a musician is a very difficult thing to do profitably intrinsically. It always has been. The question is whether it’s getting harder or easier; but it’s always going to be hard.

It seems impossible to square the fact that my listening is comprised of small acts who would never get mainstream radio time in a million years with the idea that it is harder to be a musician. What were those bands doing before, with, at best, a small local following? There’s just no way that the bands I like would reach me in the old days. How could a band have an easier time in a world where they have no exposure? How could harder dynamics result in a massive wave of more bands making music than ever before?

I’m not seeing this explained in your posts.
So here's the first thing I thought of: remember those "spaceship" amusement park rides that sat about a dozen people, with the space adventure playing on the front "window", and it tilted front/back and side/side to simulate the effects of acceleration and deceleration.

And I don't think there's any way of actually telling whether you're accelerating or tilting, as long as you keep the forces within a certain limited range?

Which immediately makes me wonder -- what if you put this HoloTile floor on top of a platform that can tilt on both axes? What if the moment it starts to detect you walking forwards, it tilts "uphill" in the direction you're walking? When you suddenly stop walking, it tilts backwards slightly for a split second, then resets to level.

Because this actually matches what our body experiences on a sidewalk -- when we walk forwards we actually tilt our body slightly forwards as we accelerate, and tilt it backwards briefly to stop. (Same as a Segway does, if that's easier to picture.)

So if the floor tilts... would that be good enough to complete the illusion, and send the right signals to the inner ear? Because the liquid in your cochlea is now sloshing around in the right way? The interoception is matching as well?
I've never seen those galletti anywhere in Italy. I guess they're just not very popular.
Well, I’ve figured out how I’m spending my spring break- buy a ton of cheap stock in some random startup, dress head-to-toe in Microsoft swag, and then spend a few days hanging out in various SFO lounges working on fake PowerPoints declaring intent to buy the startup
While rsync is different than cp and mv, I dislike the cp and mv destination-state-dependent behaviour.

With rsync, destination paths are defined by the command itself and the command is idempotent. I don't usually need to know what the destination is like to form a proper command (though oopsies happen, so verify before using --delete).

With cp/mv - the result depends on the presence and type of the destination.
E.g. try running cp or mv, canceling then restarting. Do you need to change the arguments? Why?

mkdir s1 s2 d1
touch s1/s1.txt s2/s2.txt
# this seems inconsistent
cp -r s1 d1 # generates d1/s1/s1.txt
cp -r s2 d2 # generates d2/s2.txt

mkdir s1 s2 d1
touch s1/s1.txt s2/s2.txt
# I don't use this form, but it is consitent
rsync -r s1 d1 # generates d1/s1/s1.txt
rsync -r s2 d2 # generates d2/s2/s2.txt
# Same as above but more explicit
rsync -r s1 d1/ # generates d1/s1/s1.txt
rsync -r s2 d2/ # generates d2/s1/s2.txt
# I prefer this form most of the time:
rsync -r s1/ d1/ # generates d1/s1.txt
rsync -r s2/ d2/ # generates d2/s2.txt

I simply try to use trailing slashes wherever permitted and the result is amply clear.
