Ergodox EZ is ortholinear. Ortholinears by their nature tend to not have spacing issues but they require (extensive) retraining.

There's a very good chance that the above poster was looking at staggered layouts if it's their first foray into custom keyboards, and not even considering orthos.
Surprise bill for at best "the checksum didn't match so we gave ourselves another paid workorder to investigate the filesystem of your headunit"?

It's more likely that you get it back with a new software (and all your modifications wiped), because as part of the routine maintenance some blue-collar technician connects a USB-dongle and blindly upgrades the firmware.

Unless of course, the modification is so popular that searching for it becomes part of the vendors routine maintenance protocol...
This is a thing that already happens in Japan, where physical personal and company seals (inkan) are regularly used for all sorts of documents and transactions that would get signed in the West. But they've evolved protocols to ensure they're secured and stored, which is why this rarely causes problems in real life.
100%. Containers are essentially language-agnostic software libraries, and the config we write for them is analogous to the wiring we'd normally do in a to wire libraries together. Yet, our current tools aren't adapted to write and distribute the "programs" formed from gluing them together.

Sorry, I confused monkeys and apes. In german, we have no nice single-term for monkeys, just Affen for Primates and Menschenaffen for Hominidae, and I didn't thought about that before.

But it makes not much difference. A friend of my wife once gifted her a capuchin monkey, so I could observe the astonishing behavioural similarities to humans (human children) first hand. Since then, I see more and more of them, especially in group behaviour.

And, btw, I don't give a damn how other people use the terms.

What's your experience with tiktok? How well does it perform in terms of attracting people to buy your stuff? Do videos besides plays on popular memes du jour do any good?
Have you seen any large site with user reviews? Amazon? Yelp? Any feedback on a page that matters will be gamed, because anything over what you spent to game it is pure profit. This is not a solved issue in any meaningful way.
He did say that having successive revisions is doing it wrong. Literal quote (from the translation)

"So then you get these version numbers, even with decimals, version 2.6 or 2.7. That's nonsense. While version 1 should have been the finished product."

So I think the nuance you are trying to make is unsupported. He did mean: think it through once, write it out once, version 1. Done.

I wonder if the next invention will be a "powerbank" for cars... rather than those dumb e-scooters littering the sidewalks, how about a giant battery on 4 wheels you can leave next to your car to charge it? When it's close to depletion, just like the e-scooters, a van can come around and take them to a hub to be charged. Or I suppose a car driver can put them in the trunk and return to that hub, in case they're driving that direction anyway (plus, they can collect another one to place in their neighborhood).

Sadly it'll probably need protection against people whose denial of the climate crisis involve violence and vandalism.
Crazy idea: instead of fighting the consequences of surveillance society, how about we fight the surveillance ITSELF? Everybody here agrees surveillance is bad, yet I bet right now there a few HN readers working on surveillance tech, and not at least most of us are voters, some even involved a bit deeper in politics. How about we actually do something against that what we know it's wrong?
Seconded. A fascinating book.

This list has a unique non-development related factor which is that you have to have a minimum number of followers (varying from country to country) so you might be very active and contribute much more than most of the people on the list but do not have the minimum followers required (38 in your country) so you are out.

Spotify isn't a great example because barely anyone makes money with it. It only works because the musicians are exploited to the max. The reason this won't happen with film and TV is because of unionisation. Why not just buy discs? People keep repeating that discs are dying but so many releases are coming out there is way more than I can buy.
Pointing out that a proposed solution to a problem creates more problems is not the same as saying the original problem doesn't exist or isn't worth solving. Nor does it imply that some random other solution is better.

The more you compartmentalise the more obviously you decrease efficiency of your operations.

But then you are competing with other countries, these countries may be compartmentalising less and be more efficient due to that and then you will get beaten by these countries.

If you compartmentalise extremely few will have good idea of the full picture, and from my experience I know that it's really hard to work without knowing full picture or why exactly you are doing something.

I ran up the last Ubuntu-based version in a VM and I was surprised to note that it took about the same RAM at idle... But that was running from the ISO, not installed, so it is maybe an unfair comparison. It is a smaller download and I think it would be a smaller install.
Ah you are right, I missed the "except the common header" clause. Probably because the preceding part was in bold, possibly because "common header" is defined further down the article so the clause didn't mean much when first read.
Nice to see another 40K reader. Recently I realised there are new Inquisitor books so I binged Penitent. Felt like reuniting with old friends.

Smooth scrollback in a terminal emulator using the mouse/touchpad, with terminal tabs, is way too useful for me to switch to tmux for general use. I use scrollback a lot. Sometimes I search scrollback too, which some terminal emulators do nicely.

If they would just add a tty protocol for good scrollback! :-)

I do use GNU Screen on servers for long-lived sessions. Just because it's more familiar than tmux to me. It's great for persistence, but really annoying to have to use key combos to look through and search the scrollback in Screen sessions, so I tend to log all sessions to files and read the real-time logs with `less -R` and `ripgrep` when I need to look back through session history, even though I could use the Screen interface to do it.

A product manager needed to change stuff to justify their job. A designer who isn't changing things that the product manager wants changed is replaced by one who does. Therefore, designers get paid for doing what product managers want.

Sometimes the changes get A/B tested, sometimes they don't. Sometimes the A/B test is gamed, sometimes it gets gamed by accident, and sometimes the tests get ignored when they are clearly wrong.

Finally, sometimes the directive is "get people to stop using this feature because it's unpopular with management".
The other side of it is if you want to distribute your code not as a server. If you write a CLI in Node + TS + ... then it might be pretty fiddly for someone to clone that repo and get it running locally. You'll certainly have to document exactly what's needed.

Whereas with Deno you can compile to a single binary and let them install that if they trust you. Or they can `deno install https://raw.githubusercontent.com/.../cli.ts`, or clone the repo and just run `deno task install` or `deno task run`. For those they need to install Deno, but nothing else.
Fuzz Testing, Uncovering Software Vulnerabilities
Dive into the world of cybersecurity through a series of blog posts, starting with: "Fuzz Testing, Uncovering Software Vulnerabilities". Learn how we apply established techniques like fuzz testing to enhance security and software quality in our ongoing development efforts.

Fuzzing is more than a technique; it's a journey into the intricate world of software vulnerabilities. Join us as we delve into how this automated testing approach enhances our processes, from API development to smart contract security.
When I told my wife this, her immediate reaction was - “oh no, the families with 2 or more children that needs a bigger car will be penalized because of the SUVs driven by those who don’t need it”. And I said may be this is a two birds one stone moment.

Give out SUV passes to those families with 2 or more children, and make it absurdly expensive for the rest. This way either you help increase the birth rate in EU or pay for the luxury of driving a huge thing on the road disproportionate to others.

I see the article didn’t go about that way, and didn’t even apply for residents. Just for the tourists…. Meh.
It’s been amazing. I’ve had about 30% of people that follow me join my Discord which is 10x higher than I expected.

But I enjoy learning which videos do better on each platform.

In Poland, where I'm from, it's pretty much the norm to be self-employed in Poland in the IT sector.

I believe that around 50% of workers are technically contracted one-man companies, and this percentage is inversely correlated with the seniority level - the greater the earnings (and the sense of job security that goes along with expertise and experience), the greater the incentive.

Going B2B makes a substantial difference in terms of fiscal burdens. Other than that, your day-to-day work looks pretty much the same though. You're just sending monthly invoices to the same employer, typically a single one, sometimes for years on end.

The legend on that chart says "U.S. electric-vehicle sales, change from a year earlier"

That's a plot of the first derivative (which is still positive [+42% at the last measure, meaning for every 100 EVs sold in Nov 2022, there were 142 sold in Nov 2023]) and the slope of that line is a derivative of the first derivative, or a second derivative.

tl;dr: EV sales are growing. That rate of growth is slower than it was before.
I have been using Zellij since pretty much when they announced it, but it still lacks good plugins and a stronger ecosystem.
I remember there was a movie whose creators decided to get super strict about piracy. They made sure the movie was not available on any pirate website. And they indeed were able to achieve that. However, the movie financially failed. The reason was that nobody heard about the movie — there were no pirates to let the world know about it.

Don’t fight with pirates. Treat them as your free, word of mouth marketing channel.

I wouldn't say that bringing batteries home like a wheeled luggage is exactly a convenient option, although it's better than no charging possibility at all... But that can be a showstopper for many people who don't have access to charging spots: putting gas in a tank is way simpler (although clearly not ecological... but that's still secondary for many people, unfortunately).

Imagine old school TVs. It would be the same problem as if you had TV be hard wired to a physical channel. You need to have 3 TVs at home to watch different channels. That’s what’s happening today.

The solution is easy technically speaking and has been solved for decades. It’s called interoperability.

Now, the issue is businesses don’t like it. Even though the customer value is huge. Why? Because there’s something they want more than to sell content: to control access. Your player, your recommendations, promotions for more of their content. Heck, why not triple dip and throw in some ads and data harvesting too? The end goal of platform control is to become the only one. Dominance, like Spotify. Then: relax, lean back, raise prices, and watch the stock ticker.

So they only like interoperability when they are small and growing, and then do a 180 when they get bigger. Their end goal is incompatible with yours, the consumer. Back in the day, governments or similar neutral-ground organizations enforced/supported interop (telephone, radio, tv, etc) not perfectly, but enough to break the prisoners dilemma of monopoly-seeking competing businesses. Of course, that’s gone now, in the US. Standards support (the carrot) is only for rudimentary tech, like encryption, and anti-trust (the whip) is back in some other century going after hypothetical cartoon villains.

So… either one of them wins, or a duopoly, whatever is acceptable to the average consumer. Or, more likely, it remains like this: a fragmented shit cocktail and losses to piracy. This works as intended – piracy is an extremely good pressure valve and canary litmus for market failure.
The worst part of it was when it was time-based advertising content. We were forced to watch commercials for "coming soon" content that was going through a marketing cycle but often turned out to be garbage.

So before you even get to the launch menu for this specific movie you selected, you're subjected to a trailer for a 20 year old movie with a 24% on rotten tomatoes. And an advertisement for a pizza restaurant. And a threat that the film company is going to take all their movies and put them in a vault for 10 years so you really need to go buy more DVDs from them.
That’s an opinion piece. It attempts to “infer” the purpose of bombing from select statements like a Presidential speech.

It’s not all that convincing.

But regardless the point stands. Proportionality is a subjective rather than objective measure.

The paper claims that “less than 10% of the individuals killed were military personnel”. Ok, so what percentage makes the bombing legal? 50%? 90%? What if based on all available information the death toll was estimated at 90% but it turns out to be 70%? Is it still illegal? And could you even reliably determine the number? Is someone in the military a civilian because they took their uniform off and went home for the night?

I'm not sure what your requirements are, but I've had a good amount of success with converting Node.js libraries to native libraries by embedding a CommonJS module into the binary, then running the actual code through QuickJS. Much smaller binaries.

If you really are pressed for space, you could use upx, or store 7z compressed code and embed the 7z library to decompress before passing it along to QuickJS.

> A true need-to-know basis policy requires way more discipline than we have today.

I don't think it's just discipline. It will decrease efficiency massively having to work around those bureaucratic hurdles.

> That requires every level to actually be competent enough to deeply analyze the problems they're trying to solve and generalize their requirements.

That could be right. Your solution perhaps could work, if everyone was superhuman and was able to work with limited information, having perfect communication without knowing the big picture or the goals.

From working with corporations, to me it's almost impossible to work well without knowing big picture. It's a huge difference, how much of everything I'm able to know. It can easily mean 10x or 100x or infinite efficiency difference.

If everything is compartmentalised and you need to do your task, you need to know something, but in order to know it, you may not even know who to really ask. And if you do, then who knows, when you will receive the answer.

Requirements of everything are just far too complex to be able to perfectly share this information without the context.
And here I will interject and argue a third point that it's primarily an organizational problem, and I am already working on it.

There are some of them (like Zoé and the e-208). But even if the option is there, not everyone can afford it, and if everyone would, production would be insufficient, and if production were sufficient, then raw materials imports would not be enough.

There is no magical switch, we have to accept that any transition will be long and messy.

No it isn't. Compare that to any other activity and the price would be similar for how often you do it. If you eat out once a week you'd be paying a similar amount if not more. Most people watch things more than once a week.
Well, not all web development is exclusive of JS nowadays, we have the WebAssembly based Blazor framework where you use C# throughout 98% of the web app development, no JS library is ever required of you want to.

Based on the frequency of data leaks and such, very much yes, that information tends toward finding freedom. Attempts to secure such records are necessary because they "want" to be free. Avoid leaving a trail of that information where you can, and keep as much as possible off the internet.

The notion of "information wants to be free" should be taken as an observation about the nature of things and the folly of corporations trying to have it both ways—information made broadly available yet on their exact terms—not as a value statement on any inherent goodness behind freeing information.

Show HN: Rank a random subject every day
Hi my name is Chris, I'm the creator of Rank a Day.

I don't know if it's just me but I love ranking things and discussing them like "Who's the best sports person?" or "What's the best Matt Damon film?", so I decided to create a simple web app that gives you a random topic to rank every day.

Once you've selected your top 3 answers you can submit them, see how they compare against other peoples answers and share them on social media.

I have a few Whatsapp groups I'm in and every morning we share our answers, it's just a really good conversation starter.

I'd appreciate any thoughts and feedback.

Thanks!
how does kW/h even work? because W = J/s, making kW/h kJ/s/h.
I just opened it and it seems to be a simplified version of the app lacking a lot of features like stops and groceries.

Curiously I just realized it's the same view I get from the app on my phone a lot of the time due to some kind of error when loading the normal app view.

To be fair, the sentiment was "it will be a landslide in favour" (like the electric scooters). It indeed wasn't, but still went in the expected way.

People visiting Paris were not polled, only Parisians were, that's why I only explained this point of view. But yes it does benefit everyone that doesn't visit Paris in a SUV.

Note that it also impacts Parisians with a SUV when they are parking outside of their resident zones (a resident parking permit allows you to park in 4 zones around your home).
