Not wrong, but the main “collapsing” problem I’ve observed isn’t dormant CSS code that isn’t used, but code which, whether legitimately used or not, is not scoped to the component it supposedly belongs to (and may sit alongside in the source tree), interacting with or cascading to other elements unexpectedly. It seems like something you’d just solve by convention, wrap as SCSS around whole files, and just demand of your front end developers. But still I’ve never seen it done thoroughly. Too many broad rules slip in there. I guess it’s why styled components are popular, as inelegant a solution as it is :(

The best elevator pitch I've heard is "AWS APIs for on-prem datacenters". They make turn-key managed racks that behave just like a commercial cloud would with all the APIs for VM, storage, and network provisioning and integration you'd expect from AWS, except made to deploy in your company's datacenter under your control.

Private State Tokens enable trust in a user's authenticity to be conveyed from one context to another, to help sites combat fraud and distinguish bots from real humans—without passive tracking.

An issuer website can issue tokens to the web browser of a user who shows that they're trustworthy, for example through continued account usage, by completing a transaction, or by getting an acceptable reCAPTCHA score.
A redeemer website can confirm that a user is not fake by checking if they have tokens from an issuer the redeemer trusts, and then redeeming tokens as necessary.
Private State Tokens are encrypted, so it isn't possible to identify an individual or connect trusted and untrusted instances to discover user identity.

This is a really, really good point -- and is a result of the model of Linux being only a kernel (and not system libraries, commands, etc.). It means that any real use of Linux is not merely signing up for kernel maintenance (which itself can be arduous) but also must make decisions around every other aspect of the system (each with its own communities, release management, etc.). This act is the act of creating a distribution -- and it's a huge burden to take on. Both illumos and the BSD derivatives make this significantly easier by simply including much more of the system within their scope: they are not merely kernels, but also system libraries and commands.

This weighed heavily in our own calculus, so I'm glad you brought it up!

It's nice that it works if you adjust your compilation environment like that, but the thing with the "release build" is actually the wrong way around.

- in a debug build (assertions enabled) with UBSAN you get a diagnostic or trap, so far so good.

- in a debug build without UBSAN, you get… undefined behavior, possibly some optimizations. Optimizations would generally be set to a low level, but that doesn't preclude you from getting UB.

- in a release build without assertions, … the assertion would be disabled … so you don't get any optimizations; instead you get proper "DB" for the case that should never happen.

It's essentially the wrong way around. If anything this is an argument for converting assertions into this definition in a release build, which might be reasonable in some code bases. (In my main code base, we have an "assume()" macro instead; it is by policy very sparingly used to avoid risks of running into UB.)

It's not intended to be snarky, just as noted I've run into similar issues with posts by this author. I haven't counted it up but it feels like a 90% rate of being just dangerously half-right about something.

Very much this. The (standard model's) "answer" is that the four vector potential probably is the "most real" and we're all just excitons along for the ride.

At some point the definitions become almost circular and opinions about what it fundamental have shifted a bit over the centuries. The cgs system of units -- which differs profoundly from SI in the treatment of electromagnetism -- was associated with those who viewed D and H rather than E and B the most fundamental. I'm quite happy with the level of theory used being appropriate to solve the problem at hand. There's always a bit of wiggle room around exactly what that problem is, however ;-)

So in this case, you still have to manage fan speed yourself. Overall the bigger picture would include cost of filters over time, as well as electricity (which may be in favor of the commercial unit.)

Especially since Oxide has a big fancy firmware stack. I would expect this stack to be able to do an excellent job of securely allocating bare-metal (i.e. VMX root on x86 or EL2 if Oxide ever goes ARM) resources.

This would allow workloads on Oxide to run their own VMs, to safely use PCIe devices without dealing with interrupt redirection, etc.

I maybe don't understand the point of downvoting. Am I unwelcome on HN because of a differing opinion that strikes actual thought about a topic that is overwhelmingly run by a one sided story of solar good?

It would be fine if it didn't prevent me from replying. But since it does, it feels exactly like you covering my mouth while you yell in my face.

It surely doesn't make me think that I should vote for solar. If anything it makes me sure that people aren't doing any critical thinking. Aren't interested in scientific debate. And are simply pushing a marketing agenda without discussion. The Nazis did the same thing. I'll take CO2 over a world where we can't speak any day. It inspires me to rally against solar. Surely if it was scientifically sound it would be easy to defend without covering my mouth?

Go ahead and downvote again. It says everything I need to know about YC and HN and the kind of regard that you people have for human life, which is apparently none.

An echo chamber of lies and self serving agenda. Certainly not a place for science. And definitely not for the betterment of the environment. It's disgusting in short.
That is not the valid question. We know from other cities around the world that when transit is good many people will choose to use it.

However your question is phased in such a way as to kill hope: most people don't have the imagination to think of what great transit even is, much less how it would change their life or if they want it.

Most of the costs of a car are fixed costs: your car payment, insurance, and taxes are the same on the car if you buy it and leave it sitting in your driveway all year, or if you drive it 70,000 miles in a year. Thus once you have the car you may as well drive all the way into work and not have to deal with the local transit system. (Unless traffic is really bad or parking is expensive this is the smart thing vs a park and ride). Work is another problem with your statement - if you still need the car to do your normal shopping, get to Church on Sunday, your volleyball club games at night, or whatever else you do with your life outside of work - then the incremental cost of driving to work is trivial so you may as well (again unless traffic or parking is an issue).

The real question is can we as a society afford cars? Cars costs thousands of lives in accidents every year. Cars need a lot of space: more and more expensive lanes on are roads, and many parking lots. A great transit system would save most people a lot of money, and a lot of lives.
Any clear line would be gamed pretty quickly I imagine.

Show HN: Simple mathematic syntactic sugars for Ruby
While writing code with a lot of hard to read math functions, as a joke I wrote this:

π = Math::PI

And after using this tiny substitution, my code became way more readable.

So, for fun, I felt the urge to add many more mathematical symbols to be able to write a Fourier series like:

a0 + (1..n).∑ { |n| a[n]*sin(2*π*n*x/p) + b[n]*cos(2*π*n*x/p) }

So I continued doing this and added support for ∀, ∃, ∄ in Enumerable, even without immediate use, and kept going adding more stuff.

This became this simple gem, that could be used either as refinement or monkey patch.

So I started to wonder if this wouldn't be useful to anyone else besides being a joke.

Being used at a script that only me (and possibly my wife) would read may be fun but pointless.

Assuming that in most cases code is read a few more times than written, it would make sense to take advantage of the possibilities of other Unicode characters to write mathematical functions and this joke could be useful.

What do you think?

(BTW, I also did this to play with static typing and refinements in Ruby and got a bit frustrated for the lack of support having to duplicate a lot of code. Tips and advices would be very appreciated)

> But the only way to do this is to require ID checks

Not necessarily, consider the counterexample of devices with parental-controls which--when locked--will always send a "this person is a minor" header. (Or "this person hits the following jurisdictional age-categories", or some blend of enough detail to be internationally useful and little-enough to be reasonably private and not-insane to obey.)

That would mostly puts control into the hands of parents, at the expense of sites needing some kind of code-library that can spit out a "block or not" result.
Is this better than GPT4's Grimoire?
Say you have a user U who wishes to demonstrate to site S that they are at least 16, and we have a site G that already has a copy of U's government ID information.

Here's one way to do it, with an important security measure omitted for now for simplicity.

• S gives U a token.

• U gives G that token and shows G their ID.

• G verifies that U is at least 16, and then signs the token with a key that they only use for "over 16" age verifications. The signed token is given back to U.

• U gives the signed token back to S.

If G saves a list of tokens it signs and who it signed them for, and S saves a list of tokens it issues and what accounts it issued them for, then someone who gets both of those lists could look for tokens that appear on both in order to match up S accounts with real IDs.

To prevent that we have to make an adjustment. G has to sign the token using a blind signature. A blind signature is similar to a normal digital signature, except the the signer does not see the thing they are signing. All they see is an encrypted copy of the thing.

With that change a breach of G just reveals that you had your age verified and gives the encrypted token associated with that verification. These no longer match what is in the records of the sites you proved your age to since they only have the non-encrypted tokens.

Someone with both breaches might be able to match up timestamps, so even though they can't match the tokens from S directly with the encrypted tokens from G they might note that you had your age verified at time T, and so infer that you might be the owner of one of the S accounts that had a token created before T and returned after T.

This would be something people trying to stay anonymous would have to be careful with. Don't go through the full signup as fast as possible--wait a while before getting the token signed, and wait a while before returning the signed token. Then someone who is looking at a particular anonymous S account will have a much larger list of items in the G breach that have a consistent timestamp.

Also note that to G it is just being asked to sign opaque blobs. Occasionally have G sign random blobs. If your G data shows that you are getting your age verified a few times a month, then it is even more likely that if one of those verifies is at about the same time as a particular social media signup it is just a coincidence.

Having a solid on-prem rack product to me is a great thing. I like IaaS services a lot, don't get me wrong, and I think they're the right pick for a bunch of cases, but on-prem servers also have their "place in the sun", so to speak :) I could present any number of justifications that I don't think I'm qualified enough to defend, but the gist is that at the bare minimum, I'm glad the option exists.

As to why I'm personally excited: I enjoy the amount of control having such an on-prem rack would afford me, and there surely could be a great amount of cost-savings and energy-savings in many scenarios. Sometimes, you just need a rack to deploy services for your local business. I like the prospect of decentralizing infrastructure, applying all the things we've learned with IaaSes.
