Hey Steve, thank you for this comment, I did wonder if Oxide systems did container orchestration; now I know :)

Totally get it re certification etc. There is probably some kind of bilateral standards arrangement with one of the neighbouring countries but I agree with your general thrust - we’re a long way from the point where that’s actually a consideration.
Good news from the climate though of course a little late.

And it isn't driven by climate concerns alone, our dependency on Russia has taken its toll and probably helped a lot to drive this change home.
This feels like it is still pretty good when you are on a common host like github pages.

Hey, thanks for the reply.

I was specifically looking for info about toasters (not toaster ovens) because ours (quite old generic one) recently stopped ejecting toasted slices. I've also read quite a lot of positive Sage/Breville reviews and test results so that's why I was curious about real-life experiences.

In the end, I managed to track down one of the last Bosch models ( https://www.trustedreviews.com/reviews/bosch-styline ), which was a bit cheaper (but still quite expensive for a toaster) and seems to work fine.

However, they claim that this model "uses quartz heating for even toasting" - yeah, no. ;)
Where is the datasources to practice them?
I don't think there's an immediate victim with this, but I wonder at whether or not easy access to this sort of content would increase the risk of real world offending.
It's still CO2 emissions at the end of the day. The issue is nuclear power is right there as the better option. At the end of the day natural gas is still liberating carbon which was locked away and won't be put back anytime soon.
Some background, since this is posted on HN. I'm one of the GitHub cofounders and I helped start GitButler to see if we can rethink the whole idea of what the user interface is like for our local version control tools. It's important that it works great with GitHub (and all the other git-centric things, like GitOps) and that it can be used by just one developer on a team.

Our big focus right now is better branch management. We came up with a new way to do branches called "virtual branches", where you can manipulate more than one branch simultaneously in your working directory.

I would love to hear what people think would be cool in a new version control system. What doesn't work great right now? Where are your frictions? What would an awesome version control experience be?
Why make stuff up?

All android phones have the home screens, the bottom app drawer, the app switcher, and the top drop down menu for quick settings. The only big differences between Android phones are extra features that a phone may have. For example, Pixel has a bunch of interactions you can do with it that you can't do with other phones.
There are the kinds of defects that people notice, and then there are the kinds of defects that people don't notice. Crashes are usually noticed, while nonsense calculations and undefined behavior are sometimes not noticed.

I worked at a company that sold a product that some customers used to make decisions involving a lot of money. A program misbehaved, or gave the wrong answer, or returned from a function too soon, or something. It didn't crash. A customer lost a lot of money, and we were liable.

It turned out that the bug was a symptom of undefined behavior that would have been caught by one of the flavors of assertions built into standard releases of the core C++ libraries. The team in charge of the app in question had long ago disabled those assertions because "they keep crashing the code."

Infrastructure within the company then went through a small internal crisis about whether to force assertions down people's throats or to let it be wrong on prod. The compromise was to have the assertions expand to loud warnings on prod. Ops then had a tool that would list all of the "your code is provably broken" instances, and that went to a dashboard used the shame the relevant engineering managers.

Not sure if it worked, but when you have a _lot_ of C++ code, a great deal of it is broken and "it's fine." Until it isn't.
> Every time you get a new android phone, you need to relearn new UI quirks specific to that device.

“Everytime” is in fact every 3+ years in average! At this rate, even iOS changes its UX in a way you need to learn new stuff, and that's fine.

And while there are undeniable differences from one device to another, it's a completely pointless metric! For the user the only thing that matter is what happens on your device.

Pretty much no-one cares if their neighbors' phone is the same as their own, what matters is how easy it is to use your phone. Also I can tell you, as an Android user, it's orders of magnitude easier to use any other people's Android phone than it is to use an iPhone with its undiscoverable hand snaps to get to the previous screen! Long term iPhone users (and MacOs users for that matter) have internalized the idiosyncrasies of their platform, and forgotten that there's actually an non-trivial learning process. Obviously it's “much simpler” once you've already learned it, it's the kind of statements people make about the command line as well…
It is a SerenityOS project. You can find the answer to that question in their primary project's FAQ[1].

"Solves" is a thing now? We need to brainstorm a solve for the problem? Eww. Not in my company you don't.
React was developed by Facebook. I don't think they did it for small components on otherwise static sites.
Definitely agree that the modern frameworks are better for complex stuff. Ideally there’s not really a middle ground - you’re either doing complex interactive “app-like” stuff with a framework or adding modest dynamic features to otherwise static content (e.g. static export of WordPress with some jQuery for your forms).

I personally would love to setup a new infra with Oxide systems. But for 10 VMs anything will work. If you've looked into Oxide maybe you will like SmartOS to bootstrap a small infra. Otherwise Nomad, proxmox, LXC, even VMWare is fine. If I think I need something more "serious" (understand supported/scalable with some robust cloud-like api) I would look into cloudstack from apache, which seems a lot cleaner than openstack [Removing the part about VMWare as I saw the comment about self-sufficiency]
> Also, you can’t tell what the back button will do - is it going to close the app or go back?

I've yet to encounter a single app that “closes” when pressing the back button…

> or one gesture that takes you home and one gesture to take you back.

And while gestures are ok in terms of UX, they aren't discoverable at all, hence my argument about bigger barrier to entry for beginner with iOS.

> That’s also part of the reason why Apple wants to keep it as a walled garden.

Nope, the reason is a mix of company's culture and profit motive. Since job's death Apple has largely departed from its former design consistency obsession.

> Once you deep dive, they might be about the same but Apple still has the consistency advantage.

The consistency advantage Apple has only exist compared to different Android phones (jumping from one Android brand/OS version to another is generally confusing), but it only matters when you change phones, and people have refrained to upgrade their iPhones to newer iOS version for years now so jumping to a new iPhone also come with a feeling of confusion if you were used to a former iOS version.

As I said before, most of what you're talking about doesn't really exist except on Apple's marketing and fanbase mind.
Team is pretty bad but in a former life I had to use Oracle ERP… don’t do that.

Document Management Systems are also very annoying.
Fracking is bad not only because it generates CO2 but it's very polluting as well. This is why it's not popular here. Emissions aren't the only thing. The Netherlands just shut down their gas fields because it's causing too many earthquakes.

And I really applaud Germany's decision, the coal is temporary and will be replaced by renewable too. Nuclear is just too expensive, long-term dangerous and sensitive to mess with. Again, emissions aren't the only thing that counts. And this also plays into the nuclear discussion because nuclear advocates often claim very low death tolls from nuclear, but ignore environmental pollution problems.
I do not see the contradiction. It is not so different rationale, considering that the point of purchasing a gpt3.5 license is privacy-related, as was the ban. But Italy is much bigger and less inclined towards social-spending than norway also, so yeah you would not expect it to buy such a license, especially back then.
The whole point of the project is to write a completely independent browser from scratch. The effort seems focused to me, write a complete engine. Not write a small part of a browser.

But why would reusing something be better? Reusing someone else code wouldn't be competing with them, it'd be depending on them.
Optimizing XLA CPU with OneDNN [video]
I don't think this is necessarily true, most of the standard library docs have switched over to using any, even when generics are not involved.
This is a simplistic view. I implement nil/null values everywhere including integers and at the external border there is a test for that special value. It's not like you're using this sort of thing for just another number so it's natural that there is an adaption.
Methane stays only 12 years in the atmosphere versus CO2 which stays 300 to 1,000 years.
What goes missing in the analysis of energy sources is their geostrategic impact. The vast majority of government motivations for 'green energy' is geostrategic.

Oil/coal/etc. is distributed 'unhelpfully' for western and asian interests, and it's use once. So the countries which have it must be permanently available for oil trade. Whereas with green energy, barring the provision of somewhat renewable metal supply, states do not need particularly complex diplomatic relationships.

The reason for the world's attention now being drawn to the middle east isn't as simple as Hamas. Europe needs trade open from the middle east, and it needs oil. This is at the heart of trying to balance interests in the region wrt israel.

Both china, us and europe are overwhelmingly against any disruption in the region which is why it hasnt spiraled into a full-blown regional conflict yet.

Issues such as these play strongly on the minds of states as they try to transition. China's "going green" because its a net importer, and very worried about its dependence on russia and the middle east.

This, I think, should give us hope. Whilst going green is an economic hit, it's a massive security boost. And states almost always trade wealth for security (, since, in the end, without secrutiy your wealth will disappear).
It's Germany, they've already built them. About a decade ago they had 17 reactors in operation powering about a quarter of the country. Three years ago they had 6 in operation responsible for about 13% of produced electricity.

The decision to decomission them is a political one, made directly after Fukushima, and fully completed last year. Nothing to do with building them, public was against them and the government listened.

My point being when Germany says they're gonna stop using coal and go all in on renewables, there's historical evidence that they'll follow through. It's just gonna take some years to complete.

Because Apple is a religion[1], that's it. Worshipers will say whatever it takes to defend their cult, that's basic human psychology.

Regarding the US switch to natural gas electricity and the closing of coal plants - it seems that a good fraction of the US-produced thermal coal is still being shipped overseas, particularly to India(36%) but also The Netherlands(13%), Egypt(9%), Morocco(7%), Japan(6%) and China(5%):

https://www.reuters.com/markets/commodities/us-thermal-coal-...

> "The thermal coal export earnings were the second-highest since 2017, following 2022's $5.7 billion. The total volumes were the highest since 2018 and came as U.S. power producers cut the amount of coal used in electricity generation to the lowest this century."

Someone probably needs to explain to the green clean energy enthusiasts setting policy these days that it really doesn't matter where you burn the coal, at least from a global atmospheric standpoint (though not for local pollution fallout of sulfur and mercury and arsenic). However, hindering fossil fuel exports appears unlikely for any US government, see the LNG exports to Asia and Europe over 2023:

It does not take decades to build.

The largest owner of wind power installations in Sweden is China. The 5 largest producers of electricity from wind power, 3 of them are foreign (Finland, Germany and Norway).
My opinion: irresponsible for children; it's just that some civil servants want to show that they understand the trend. They love to do this kind of movement in order to "show off". But the fact is that they only have a partial understanding of this technology and follow what others say.

There is no information that they compared open source models and considered whether to build their own data servers.

You should at least do some experiments to show that gpt can improve quality in education, right? Although I know that data manipulation is common in scientific research nowadays by picking the data that better serve the wanted assumption, but this time they even skip this step.

Took about 10 seconds to get the correct answer on ChatGPT.

But, generally speaking, if you don’t have some way of verifying what the correct answer is, how can you be sure that the answers you get in 10 seconds from the LLM are actually correct?
You need energy now. Nuclear was phased out. That's it. That was the decision. And in 2021 was "barely" producing 13% of electric energy with the last 6 reactors.

So either you follow one approach (= mix between imports and solar/wind) or the other (=import until 2032, then import and produce with nuclear energy), with the first approach being oriented to the long run (=independent from other countries, less co2 emissions, etc.).

The consensus is clearly 100 to 1000 of the background extinction rate, and that biomass is decreasing in wide range of categories (like mammals, insects, fishes, plants, etc). How they refuted that? Are there more and more diverse bacterias, and the rate of how diverse they become increased 100 fold?
Your point about a TPM PIN being more secure than a password doesn't make sense. Both are passwords. If you're assuming the user stored their PIN safely, then you can also assume they would store their password safely.

Your broader point is fair though. Because this explout is nullified by a built-in TPM (already here) or the lanes being end to end encrypted (ship has sailed)
XMPP "without extensions" doesn't even have group chats :)

A bit of a tangent, but... "XMPP without extensions" is generally not a useful thing to discuss. It's not like XMPP was ever expected to be used without extensions (for IM, at least, which is one of XMPP's most popular use cases).

The core protocol was standardized at the IETF as an RFC. The rest was always governed by the XMPP Standards Foundation.

Server-side message archiving is part of the XSF's compliance requirements for XMPP-based IM, and it is implemented and deployed everywhere, so who cares about "XMPP without extensions"?

These are effectively different layers. E.g. Linux/POSIX is not incomplete just because it doesn't come with a spreadsheet application. However such functionality is expected by most users and provided by most distros.

The modularity is what has allowed the protocol to evolve over the years, rather than being frozen in time (something that happened to IRC, and that IRCv3 is working to fix).
These numbers seem to support the grandparent comment that the absence of controlled burns was causing more fires that covered more area. 2023 was a ridiculously low fire year, and at least one reason for that is the last few years of destructive fires finally kicked in the political will to do controlled burning. https://www.fire.ca.gov/incidents/2023
> Only someone in the USA would claim that car ownership is very expensive without knowing how much it cost in most of the rest of the world

I know quite well what cars cost in several countries, I live in the US, why do I need to bring up and compare random countries?

> Insurance is basically risk pooling, and you need someone to calculate the risks, and get paid for that work. They also have to setup a lot of other things. Now, the government could be the insurer of last resort, but they aren't going to be very good at it without profit motive, or maybe it will be heavily subsidized like flood insurance in Florida

Yes I get how insurances work. I don't want the government to risk pool like an insurance, I want them to offer the option of subsidized debt, much like student loans not like insurance.

> We are already able to shop around for insurance. I changed insurance companies 2 times in the last 5 years because their premiums jacked up beyond what I was willing to pay. If it were just the government, I'm not sure, I guess it would be like medicare

We are not talking about insurance existing as an option but being legally mandated.

> it would be more like student loans?

Yes, the requirement would be to sign up for the student loan like debt which you don't pay into so long as you don't cause an accident and have to pay back only the cost of the accident but unlike student loans there is no interest, only admin fees (student loans should be direct loans from the government with 0% interest but different topic). If you don't like that, then you have to get basic liability insurance.

Either you protect yourself and get insurance in case of an accident or protect your cash flow and liquidity so you can own a car,home,etc... faster so that even if you get into an accident, paying it off wouldn't be as impactful as a life long debt.

For me, as an example my average basic liability was around $150/mo, which is $1800/yr and $90k if I owned a car for 50 years. I have to pay that amount no matter what. The maximim coverage of basic liability here is $25k, so long as I don't injure a person or total a car to a point where I max out insurance at $25k more than 3 times in my driving life I lose $15k. If the total liability cost was averaged at 1k/yr, that's 40k I am giving up. That's several cars, a house payment, several medical emergencies!
I'm going to need a source for this, because the mechanics of storage aren't the same as generation sources which can be switched on and off (power plants "running out of fuel" essentially doesn't happen - no one finding "cheap" grid scale storage though is showing weeks of banked energy).

> but ignore environmental pollution problems.

What “environmental pollution” are you talking about here?
GKE since 2017 here. Healthcare. I think we had one major outage that involved the cluster itself. It resolved itself and we never discovered what caused it. That was in the early days, so I recall very little.

Now I'm using Fly.io. They both have their advantages. Folks tend to make kubernetes sound way more difficult than it is. It can be overkill but it can also solve so many challenges out of the box. At least when it's managed. It'll cost you though.
We just care more about pollution in Europe. Greenhouse emissions aren't the only environmental problems (and those are also worsened by fracking of course as it's still a means of producing fossil fuels)

I totally support our stance against fracking. And the dependency on Russia was a bit of an issue for the first winter of the war but prices are back to normal now.
When it comes to filtering, there's enough unique selections a user can make that, if you're letting the eBay API handle filtering for you, will cause far too many cache misses.

At a previous job I considered a system that would use synchronous API calls to the backend API until it went down (or we got rate limited). When the backend was unavailable we'd switch to filtering in our service using the data we'd previously cached.

I.E. if a cached query asked for (cpu>=3.0Ghz, cores>=2) we can also answer (cores>=4) by filtering the previous result. This wouldnt be able to find any CPUs with less than 3Ghz, unless it there were other cached responses. This works well when a "best effort" response is desirable, even when it's incomplete.
My experience in across a range of technical and consulting roles has been that junior folk understand the need gor their work to be reviewed and checked, because they know that they are inexperienced. Good senior folk want their work to be checked because they are experienced enough to know that they are fallible. It is the mid level folks (especially those who are promoted above their competence to senior roles) who think that they are good enough not to need hheir work reviewing.

Here is my favorite example of errors due to overflow:

std::vector<int> vec;

// test for sorted..

bool sorted = true;

for (size_t i = 0; i < vec.size() - 1ULL; ++i)

if (vec[i] > vec[i+1]) {

sorted = false;
break;

}

I believe the google c++ style guide rues the selection of unsigned integers as the return type of size() in the standard library for reasons like the above. Personally, my preferred behavior would be to have a compiler flag that could be used to enable a trap if unsigned arithmetic resulted in wrap-around, as in the above case when the vector is of length zero.
