> it really isn't worth it in the long term to take on a new external dependency for a bit of code that (1) is a critical part of the team's development and release process and (2) can be written in-house in maybe an hour.

This seems to be quite a contradiction. If it's so easy to just write from scratch, then why would it be scary to depend on? Of course, it's not that easy to write from scratch. You could make a proof-of-concept in maybe an hour... Maybe. But they already took the proof of concept to a complete phase. Made it work with Podman. Added tons of integration code to make it easy to use with many common services. Ported it to several different languages. And, built a community around it.

If you do this from scratch, you have to go through most of the effort and problems they already did, except if you write your own solution, you have to maintain it right from the git-go, whereas if you choose Testcontainers, you'll only wind up having to maintain it if the project is left for dead and starts to bitrot. The Docker API is pretty stable though, so honestly, this doesn't seem likely to be a huge issue.

Testcontainers is exactly the sort of thing open source is great for; it's something where everyone gets to benefit from the wisdom and battle-testing of everyone else. For most of the problems you might run into, there is a pretty decent chance someone already did, so there's a pretty decent chance it's already been fixed.

Most people have GitHub and Dockerhub dependencies in their critical dependency path for builds and deployment. Services go down, change their policies, deprecate APIs, and go under, but code continues to work if you replicate the environment it originally worked in. The biggest risk with code dependencies (for non-production code like test code) is usually that it blocks you from updating some other software. The biggest risk with services is that they completely disappear and you are completely blocked until you fully remove the dependency.

I think people depending on Testcontainers are fine and doing very well with their risk analysis.
No one knows how much care costs. Insurance companies and providers hide the real Costa when predicting in the guise of "information security" which makes choosing a facility on price literally impossible.

Time isn't a factor, if you have insurance that covers it you rarely if ever know how much it will cost.
This is why appetite increases in winter.
Back when I was in an office, we switched desks once a quarter. We randomized the selection order each time and the only rules were you couldn't sit at the same desk or next to the same people. The value was that sitting next to new people created more social connections and created more trust and a change in scenery was refreshing.
A tale as old as time. Literally, this is the story of Moses.

> Yet the top answer is "this is gibberish"

They're not wrong really. It is gibberish on it's own. We don't know where in memory that it starts or the places it is referencing in the jumps. If it were ASM source code those jumps would likely contain labels instead of just raw dogging memory locations.

The fact that it just so happens to be from COMMAND.COM from MS-DOS 3 is a wonderful bit of detective work, but it doesn't make the snippet any less gibberish.
I think it does. And even gives some concrete examples.

> you're just paying attention to what the other person is telling you they need right now, and what kind of conversation they want to have.
You argue that we should ask more "deep" questions. How come?

> Deep questions ask someone about their values, beliefs or experiences. When we talk about those things, we talk about who we really are. And they're really easy questions to ask, right? If you've met someone who's a doctor, you could ask: "What made you decide to go to medical school?" Or "what do you love about practising medicine?" Those are both deep questions, because they invite the other person to say something real and meaningful about themselves. And they make it easy for us to reciprocate to tell them why we decided to do our job.
re 2) People will reject more expensive options if and only if they have the time and energy to reach the point where they know what the price differential is.

Almost no medical practices in the US will tell you what the price is until after you've had the service there, and that price might even vary across multiple trips depending on how your insurance processed the claim _that_ time. (Ask me how I know.)

So you would need to schedule appointments and have the entire medical procedure done multiple times to have any price visibility, and even then, there's lots of nonsense around things like doctors operating in hospitals but billing separately, which completely obfuscates the end cost to someone.

People can and will choose the cheaper option, but I personally, as someone who has limited time, cannot afford to go through totalling all the bills for having the same procedure done twice every time, with all the months of back and forth for setting up being a new patient, scheduling things, being lied to about the doctor being available for the consult, showing up and having the staff gaslighting everyone about how it's not a problem on their end, everyone angrily waiting in the waiting room clearly got their appointments wrong, even if you have the reminders written by the staff at your pre-actually-seeing-the-doctor visit in hand showing their system is wrong...

It's incredibly exhausting and involved to visit a new doctor for even the most trivial things. Most people cannot afford the time commitment to do that multiple times even if the procedure is something where it's not a one-off or urgent.
I have 112 paid PC games in my steam library and over the years I've owned 6 consoles as well as building or buying many gaming computers. I'm definitely in the market for games and machines to play them.
Yup. And that's the part that needs to end. The angry part.

I have seen people understanding, but with a "oh, you're one of those people" looks on their face. That too is entirely uncouth. But people should start recording these interactions, not obtrusively as the purpose is not to intimidate, but instead just make a record of what transpires.

I think legislation that makes it completely legal and admissible in court, any recorded retail interaction, might be an interesting change.

Because if you are presented with a contract and "JUST SIGN THE DAMN THING!", or "It just means $x", or "People are waiting, just sign it!" and so on, that would likely go a long way indicate compulsion, or even (by describing intent) change the entire contract itself.

If this happens, it may be cheaper to just have sane contracts, and do non-dumb things, then try to train every employee that has public contact.
Now would be their time to shine. I know they do plenty, but this would be a great time for them to show up.
I mostly agree with you, but consider that in 50 years, the "least complex thing" might seem much different than it does today.
Unless I'm mistaken, this is only a problem if you're forwarding ports from the Docker containers to the host machine, which isn't necessary if the test itself is running from inside a Docker container on the same bridge network as your dependencies. (Which compose will set up for you by default.)
ah thanks. iirc it used to be like that ( when use without cloudfront).
I agree. Sampling logs.. sounds dangerous. Obviously every system is different.

At least in GCP you can apply a filter to prevent ingestion and set different expiries on log budgets. This can help control costs without missing important entries.
> Better to just design with filters.

I wonder how frequently the filters need to be clean/changed? After every flight? After X flight hours?

And what is involved in changing them?

I imagine, initially at least, they'll remove all the engines after every flight, and that will give them easy access to inspect/clean/replace the filters, when necessary. However, I expect the longer term goal is they don't want to have to remove the engines after every flight, just like how a commercial aircraft doesn't have its engines removed after every flight.
The chairman of OKX TR, said that the business has also set up a local office in Turkey.
The debut is timed to coincide with the country’s changing stance on the crypto sector.
In a formal announcement, crypto exchange OKX has introduced OKX TR to the Turkish market. The launch was announced by the corporation on February 27.

In partnership with regional financial institutions, OKX TR offers a deposit option and an on-ramp for the Turkish lira fiat currency. Fibabanka, VakıfBank, İş Bankası, Fikret Bankası, Şekerbank, and Türkiye Finans are among the banking partners for the new platform.

Users in Turkey will be able to use OKX Wallet, a non-custodial Web3 wallet supplied by OKX Global, and the platform will include significant cryptocurrency pairings with the Turkish lira, such as Tether (USDT). Customers may use the wallet to access decentralized apps (DApps) and non-fungible tokens (NFTs). Mehmet Çamır, the chairman of OKX TR, said that the business has also set up a local office in Turkey.
That's because I was replying specifically to your part about "1500 years of participation". Those two Roman Christians were both very influential thinkers on both Christian and European thought. Eventually direct slavery in Europe was largely eliminated long before the 1500's, at least slavery of Christians. Institutions like serfdom still continued, but there were limits on it.

During this era no other major polities that banned slavery that I'm aware of.

The traingular trade began in the 1440's and some Pope's even supported it at first. It took longer for earlier Christian thoughts against slavery began to be applied to non-Christians and among European colonies but they were eventually. Pope's began condemning enslaving Christians in the new colonies, and later ones condemned the Portuguese slave trade (part of the triangular trade). Many leading abolitionists in the British empire such as John Newton or William Wilberforce were directly motivated by their Christian faith and were very influential in outlawing slavery in the British Empire. It was similar in the US as well.

I cannot read this due to the paywall, but a high fiber and protein diet made consuming fewer calories a lot easier for me.

My go to became stir fries of seafood/pork/chicken and dense veggies like broccoli, carrots, or potatoes. It's simple food that can be eaten so many different ways and where small indulgences with huge flavor like butter or cheese have minimal impact. I also got into herbs and spices that improved my palate and cooking. I also replaced my soda habit with plain ice cold carbonated water.

In other words weight loss is just the capstone of a more disciplined lifestyle where you cook your own food, which in turn also requires a routine of housework, grocery shopping, and avoiding fast food. Exercise can just be some basic calisthenics and daily walks. It's... pretty much what you were already taught way back in grade school.
It's like that joke. Something about an honest politician being one who stays bought after you've given them money.

A lot of people want (as you describe) the “least-complex thing I can find that does the essential job I want done”

But what you then go on to describe is the antithesis of other people’s definitions.

People want an experience that works out of the box. That they don’t have to think about package managers or maintenance. That’s low complexity for the vast majority of people.

That’s why people are going for Apple and Tesla.

I did this as recently as last week... when we were cleaning up our unused AWS resources, and accidentally jettisoned a reserved IP that an important script was still apparently connecting to for live updates. I got 8 phone calls in 3 minutes at 4:30am while I was sleeping, immediately guessed what had happened, and it was just faster to SSH in from my phone and change the script than get up and open an IDE.
Few things: only one doctor visit is allowed and for some insurance companies asking about health problems voids that.

Preventative is very narrowly defined to exclude anything considered a sickness in anyway.

Getting something done that will ensure you don't get more sick might be considered preventative naively but is considered fixing a problem and so not covered.

So basically this covers vaccines (make sure if you get multiple you don't see a doctor past the first or you are paying) tests unrelated to medical problems and a single non diagnostic visit to the doctor per year.
Being more reserved about phrases like "tons of research" and "primary hypothesized reason" when sharing one study that proposes a small but unexpected contributing factor and some intra-industry coverage of that study would have saved you some downvotes and conflict here.

It's a really fascinating phenomenon and I'm glad you shared it, but the researchers likely wouldn't stand by your phrasing and if you trace the stories and search results, you can see that it's really all just reporting about the same single bit of research from those researchers. So those pushing back on your own claims about it here have a point.
I suspect that the "Switch 2" is going to be like the GameCube -> Wii, where the hardware is backward compatible and largely just a faster version of the previous generation. Essentially being a suped-up Switch means Yuzu could immediately work much better with whatever they come out with next. I think that is why they are going after Yuzu now, to try and get ahead of another Dolphin situation occurring much earlier in the lifecycle. Should Nintendo get a favorable ruling, this would open a huge can of legal worms for the tech industry as a whole.

Reading through the comments, I'm quite shocked to see how many deterrent conversations are happening without any understanding of the underlying tech stacks being tested. Testcontainers can be fantastic, especially when you are facing test environment overhead challenges, assuming you have the appropriate architectures / service boundaries to support it. I believe there is more code out there in existence with architectures that make using Testcontainers more challenging than it is worth.

They can, but not all prose needs to rely on them. Indeed, the quoted semicolon could easily be swapped for a period with no loss. In such a case it serves more as ornamentation than semantics.
Yes, everything someone does is motivated.
That's actually what gets people to do anything, physiologically as well.

That's why someone who is not motivated won't do anything, disciplined or not. Lately people have been discipline at the forefront but motivation comes first and needs to be sustained. Just an aparté.

You're not wrong.
You're the one bogged down in mechanical details, trying to nitpick the definition of "malfunction". I'm only trying to argue that a DDoS isn't meaningfully speech.

> which means your sharding scales proportional to the frequency of the most common token in the log

inverted index entry for frequent token can be sharded itself. You can imagine that google doesn't store all page ids in internet for the word 'hello' on the same server.

> This is really important because the vast majority of log and event and telemetry in general is never accessed. Like 99.99% of it or more.

for log processing you are likely correct. I was more wondering in general why do you think inverted index doesn't scale.
Wide events described in this article seem to equal structured logging but a more loose dumping ground. So yeah to an extent it has this problem, just more so.

How does tracing? Are folks adding PII to spans? I suppose you could but I'm not sure why.

I see testcontainers being used in tests making the test code style feel more like typical unit tests with fake implementations for system components. Which is misleading as these are more on the integration testing side typically. In essence this is another DSL (per language) for managing containers locally. And this DSL comes in addition to whatever system is actually used for managing containers in production for the project.

Open Source doesn't necessarily mean free of charge, but even when it does (most of the time), plenty of people still choose to pay for open source products today (eg. Red Hat). A product being open source doesn't mean the people working on it shouldn't be paid somehow; in particular, Yuzu do early releases and other closed-source-ish things (which is one of the reasons Nintendo is able to bring something to court here).
The linked article (notably not a paper nor reviewed) states:

> Taking the high end of the range of estimates of radiative forcing could result in up to 0.18C additional warming by 2030 and 0.25C additional warming by 2050, though most studies have found lower forcing estimates than this.

A general useful tip is to eat slowly. Deeply masticate every bite, put the food or fork down for a bit after every bite.

I'm someone who eats really fast and barely chews. It allows me to eat competition-level amounts of food, and my waistline can quickly suffer as a result. But pacing myself makes me feel fuller on much smaller portions (read: 500kcal days).
At the moment I got a visa that allows me to stay for 15 months, which provides a good deal of stability. I think a few years is probably the sweet spot before moving on.
The problem is I think Apple would want to be premium above existing luxury cars. I don’t think it would be 60k. I think they would be 90k or even 120k.

Sure Apple’s $60k car is better than a $30k Honda. But is it better than a $60k Acura or BMW or Lexus?

That’s where I think the trouble would be.
Ask HN: LinkedIn Verification with ID due to "your profile photo was changed"
Long time user of HN, using anon for obvious reason.

Just got an email from Linkedin saying "Your profile photo was changed.

If you didn’t take this action, let us know it wasn’t you by using this link. For your security, we’ll require that you reset your LinkedIn password."

The email looks legit. But instead of the normal password reset that sends a verification code to my email, they opt to do ID verification (sending pic of my ID) to Persona.

All seems legit, after password reset, the page contains a link to https://www.linkedin.com/help/linkedin/answer/a1342692

I don't trust Persona's system to not store the ID, so I didn't and don't plan to do so.

Linkedin support requires you logging in, which I can't.

Googling their login-less contact shows links that do require log in.

I just don't get it. If they trust my email enough to send me this info, how can they not trust it for account verification? How can they not offer support w/o login?

Anyone knows of some hidden support link that don't require login or offer any help?

thank you.

Edit: The email is a no-reply, so can't reply to it.
