Open source decentralized streaming project
We're thrilled to share the vision behind our open source decentralized streaming project, which is currently in its alpha stages of development. Our primary objective is to build a stable and reliable foundation that will serve as the cornerstone for future growth.

Here's a snapshot of our ambitious goals:

1. Cluster: Create a decentralized media server cluster with multiple zones. Our commitment is to support a broad range of SDKs and mainstream protocols like RTMP, SIP, and SRT to ensure seamless compatibility.

2. Marketplace: Develop a sharing marketplace that will enable resource sharing and monetization. This marketplace platform will not only help our partner scale during high-demand periods but also reduce costs during lulls. With a long vision, the revenue generated from this marketplace service fees will be instrumental in funding the project's development.

3. P2P Network: Our long-term goal is to establish a peer-to-peer network where servers act as fallbacks, significantly cutting infrastructure costs and paving the way for limitless scalability.

Currently, our focus is laser-sharp on achieving Goal 1. To stay updated on our progress details of our project roadmap, please visit our github page or follow our updates at 8xFF Foundation page.

We're excited to embark on this journey and can't wait to share our progress with you. Let's build the future of media servers with us!

The reason to rehearse martial arts is to get in fewer fights. You spar to drive home the point that a fight entails the other person landing punches and all you will walk away with is some bruises.

Nobody likes you more because you won the argument. "Yes, and..." is much better tool. Even when dealing with socio-paths because saying one thing and doing another is also useful.

What I mean is that what works for me is to realize that my deficit is social skills. The solutions are negotiation and forbearance, not violence.

Good luck.

>Make it work, make it pretty, make it fast, in that order. And don't optimize without measuring, another trap that many people (present company included) fall into.

This view is common nowadays, but I think people need to dial that back by maybe 30%. Too often, it's used as an excuse for software that's extremely wasteful, when with minimal tweaks it could be efficient.

I am a "simplicity uber alles" kinda guy, and even I think you should add a line of code if it'll shave off half the runtime.

I've heard people quote this, and the infamous Donald Knuth line, as an excuse for not knowing how to do basic things, like binary search. I've even heard people complain about caching network IO without a benchmark to show RAM is faster than DNS.

Programmers, more than other people, have a tendency to take a pithy soundbite and make it their life philosophy, and I'm saying it's better not to.

On the bright side, I think Japan is socially / culturally well positioned to suffer through this change. Taxes will likely go up significantly, but the young overburdened Japanese are unlikely to emigrate in large numbers (which would exacerbate the problem), older people are often in good health and choose to work, there's this communal attitude to solving problems.
I'll go out on a limb and say that 99% of the people buying "Glide" dental floss at COSTCO have NO IDEA that they're coated in toxins (PFAS) and if they pick up a gargantium bag of Cheerios for their kids they also probably aren't aware that those too are coated in Chlormequat chloride. Modern living.
This is extremely clever, now people are thinking with portals. I want this idea to be applied to everything. I want to run my own thoughts through it and see what it says.

This is gonna be really fun for therapy which is basically this but as a sport.

You've misunderstood the "right" way's purpose. It's right because it solves a problem in a particular context, not because it's the best way in all contexts. You're not coordinating with other humans, so why have a mechanism to coordinate your efforts on a personal project? You're not risking people's incomes with minor downtime, so why build a resilient system? The right way comes at a cost of time and effort - why pay for things you don't want?
Firstly, I said absolutely nothing about any “Google Tax”. If companies are creating PWAs to avoid appstore tax are doing it to avoid Apple Tax as well as Google Tax. I ignored that straw man in your previous post.

The problem is developers who want to easily create cross-platform apps and games, who are finding it harder to do so because Apple won't let them, because the tool they want to use might reduce Apple's ability to unfairly tax developers.

Apple tax is the why. Apple potentially inconveniencing everyone by breaking existing features in a hissy-fit is the how.
To me this seems not altogether dissimilar from the already common advertising practices in the food industry. Have you ever compared the dilapidated, tired sandwich you get from a fast food place with the image on the menu display? They use all manner of deception and trickery to make the picture look far more appetizing than what you're going to be served.

Things like motor oil as syrup, white glue instead of milk, or hair spray to simulate moisture.

What is the difference?

Don't get me wrong, I'm not on the side of the AI tricksters. Instead, I think we should be coming down on ANY advertiser that is illicitly altering the product in advertising.
I feel this is bit of a recurring theme in Python world where nice simple things are dragged into serious (enterprise) production world and then they accumulate gazillion bits of cruft, hiding the originally nice simple thing. It's quite fundamental problem trying to please both the ad-hoc small script and X million line production system users; Python straddling the gap imho ends up pleasing neither.

My preference would be to focus on excelling on the small-scale stuff and leave the complex stuff for ecosystems better aligned with that; basically let Java be Java and Python be Python.

This is very weird take. I'm struggling to understand why this is incident as a reflection of "super negative practices" or is somehow a "scam". The CEO came here and publicly apologized for the mistake and mis-communication, and the issue is resolved for the user with no charges. What am I missing?
This is why copyleft is necessary, and also why large companies have spread a lot of anti-GPL propaganda.

In a larger sense, we desperately need a societal shift in perspective from naively viewing companies as benevolent by default, to viewing companies as they actually are by default: they'll literally kill people if it's profitable.
True, but add telemetry, and all other sensors who have shown nominal performance throughout the flight and that gave them the information they needed with the time resolution required to see an highly energetic cascading failure from one engine to the others.

It's a very interesting space (no pun intended).
Been using Netlify for 7 years now and I'll be moving all of my projects to cloudflare this week. That's a hell of a lot of risk to host a few hobby sites that virtually nobody visits. Cant imagine running a bootstrapped business and having this happen. Seems extremely predatory.
You're not running away with it either. You should just release it as a proprietary tool or SaaS if you think it will be useful for people.
They aren't engineered, they subsidize (more) enginnering effort , and (are meant to) cost less as a result.

They do. But of course maximizing profit is the sole true prerogative of capitalist enterprises. And the market is not totally competitive. So yes your intuition was correct, to be cautious against over enginnered pricing to get y'a.

I mean those companies cater to hobbyist. Then ...

Render seems more fair-play. Until a change of mgt occurs of course.
Their confusion is somewhat forgivable when authoritative-seeming but absolute garbage articles like this abound: https://unacademy.com/content/neet-ug/study-material/physics...

This isn’t quite not-even-wrong but it’s not far off being that bad. It’s like a page from that book of false logic that naughty fids have to read in Anathem.
That's the explanation I came up with for myself, too. As humans, we rate most things not in absolute but in relative terms to what we are used to (see studies about happiness or how rich people don't realise how wealthy they are when they don't leave their bubble). Why should we perceive time differently than in comparison to our timescale?
PFAS are not natural, so I think we make all of that particular problem ourselves?

Fertility is sub-replacement in East Asia, Europe and arguably the entire American continent (there are a few pockets with natural population growth).

We may as well focus on places that speak English; then everyone on HN can follow the news and review the stats. Asia is nice and all, but we can't read up on what is going on so easily. I'd bet a dollar their journalists aren't much better than ours and are getting a lot of the story wrong.

It's true but other risks are usually discrete. PFAS exposure continously decreases your health while driving a car has no effect on your health until you get into an accident.

The risk calculation feels different in those cases.
japan has been in the media since the 1980s, considered the 'the future' of the world. I think that idea still holds in the mind of many readers.

It would work for lan gaming since you are within your network, but not for Steam since Steam essentially is a form of DRM and you'll need to "check in" eventually. I know Steamworks is their actual DRM library and that developers can decide if they want to use it or not, but Steam essentially made DRM flourish in the industry. As much as I love Valve and the games they've made early on, they definitely have hurt the industry in this respect.
Small population isn't a problem, getting there is - quick fertility rate drop means you'll need to support many pensioners from not that many productive workers.

For such an article, I would expect the author to spend some time talking about their real-world experience with React at scale.

> Much of the innovation in the UI space is now happening around the edges of the React ecosystem: Solid.js, Preact.js, Svelte.js, Vue.js, Astro.js, Qwik.js, Marko.js

> How can I be out of order when I can piss clear across the Mississippi River?
>> We seem to have stumbled over the solution to overpopulation. Wealth.
> I'd be careful about drawing that conclusion.

Right reason wrong conclusion. Look at the living standards of people in EU. People are educated enough to know a childbirth is huge financial burden. When both people in a couple work and barely can afford a living the only way they get a child is to have an accident and they are religious enough to not have an abortion.

Poor people back in the day did not have tools to prevent babies. Or did not care as children were treated... more liberally.

Wealth or rather lack of it, combined with contraception and basic financial understanding make for no babies.

Its not a rocket science.

A point to support it. There was a credit union in US whos CEO made a snap decision and gave everyone 75k base salary (10yrs ago or so) a follow-up with employees... house ownership through the roof people have babies and are more productive (to no-one's surprise except other CEOs and economists)

Microsoft's comeback in recent years has been very impressive to witness. Although I still can't make the jump to Windows, I'd at least be open to it at some point. Last time I booted a Windows machine, it showed me an ad on startup. Get rid of shit like that and I'll consider it.
> The information about boot disk like … evaporated

That seems concerning.
I would presume the code before was better than the code after, so that's how you could get two sets. It might not be much of a boost, it could depend, and I'm sure there are other data augmentation techniques. Good model improvement is usually an iterative loop, trying things out to optimise an objective.
That's nice that you've got that in your home.

But at scale? For the rest of us?

I think the parent comment made a reasonable point and did so in a calm manner. It in no way overplayed the misery of the past (I'd argue it vastly underplayed it).

Now, to your contention that "we've screwed up as a civilisation". What do you mean exactly? What civilization and when did the screwing up start?
I've been journalling for 10+ years. In addition to forcing me to actually write down what happened that day, reviewing old entries provides a feeling of history that makes life feel soooo long and so rich. I can review my now-wife's rocky courtship and feel grateful we made it. I looked back 3 years ago and found the day our children were conceived :D (we have twins). I can review the anxieties of my PhD years, etc etc.

For some reason, feeling like my past life has not been short helps me to feel that there's so much life left to live. Looking back at the phenomenal changes of the last 5 years (or 10), shows me that I can do a lot with the next 5 years.

Novelty and so on may help to "slow" time, but for me the perception of the shortness of life is best fought by reminding yourself that it is not short, and there is so much change coming - more than you could imagine.

(and I'm horrible at doing it every day, maybe every week or so during slumps)

We're at our computers all day every day. So I just lowered the barrier to entry with a few bash tricks. It's helped me keep the habit up.

https://jodavaho.io/tags/bullet-journal.html

Now, I review 1, 5, and 10 years ago every day, to re-live my life from those years, so to speak:

# list dates from 10 years ago +/3 3 days
# get years and day range from args
echo "### $years years ago"
for i in `seq -w -$days $days`
do
olddate=`date -d "$years years ago $i days" +%Y-%m-%d`
longdate=`date -d "$years years ago $i days" +%A\ %B\ %d,\ %Y`
echo "### $olddate.md ($longdate)"
cat $olddate.md
done

Google here routinely sends people on really bad tracks you have a hard time turning around or backing around from unless you are experienced with/on them and with the car you are driving. People this happens to are usually tourists with rental cars so they don't know the terrain or the car. When they turn to ask for help I often ask how you thought it was a good idea to get of the actual road with signs and asphalt and got onto the dirt track that seems to be made of loose stones and sand and goes on a 20+ degrees incline into somewhere you cannot see. Didn't you look on the map before you went right, to see if there even is anything there. Google said they had to go there even though most of these paths don't go anywhere... Did they use to? I don't know but not the past 15 years I have lived here. It's weird.

Also, reminds me of: https://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/real-life/news-life/man-fr...
I feel like you already know the answer.
There is rarely an incentive to claim responsibility. And in the case of finding a smoking gun held by some national, the geopolitical consequences of pointing a finger are consequential. Nations must decide if those consequences are in their favor. For Nord Stream, pointing their finger either at Russia or Ukraine would result in consequences that are not in Nato's favor.
Ultimately the Quest is designed as a VR game console and it does that well for an affordable price, but it’s the AR aspects of the Vision Pro that people are excited about.

Head to head the Meta Quest 3 has worse screens and cameras, only runs one app at a time, requires controllers, less comfortable while reclined etc. And while Meta removed the mandatory Facebook integration that really damaged people’s perception of the brand.

In the end more affordable products sell, but people still lust after supercars not daily drivers.
Yes it's the same as edible.

The big difference between edible and smoking/vaping is that with edibles your liver metabolizes delta 9 THC into 11 hydroxy THC wheras with smoking the delta 9 goes directly into the bloodstream and to the brain.

Your brain reacts differently to these two:

- Delta 9 will make your brain feel more high.

- 11 hydroxy will have more of a psychedelic effect.
What price would the dude have to pay if he didn't publish it? How often does this happen and why is there no protection against charging free customers 100k out of the blue. Why charge it and shock the customer if practice is to waive it? The CEOs response kinda just made the situation worse.

I don't think the surface is porous so much as you didn't clean the pan and left capsaicin behind in it. You could try this with other materials - can you eliminate all the spice from stainless or glass without using soap as a surfactant?

It's fine to wash cast iron with soap, and when you're working with spicy things and others use the pan, you really ought to consider it. Even if you don't usually wash your pan.

Definitely. I've been on the Dark Island for about 6-12 months now and been loving it. You definitely need to be more conscious of the apps you use and all of that (Which I already have been for like a decade at this point through the use of Linux and FreeBSD, and using more open source apps - although I still use proprietary stuff if necessary). But once you are conscious about the apps, then going offline is not as difficult. You'll know what apps you can and can't live without, what apps work without internet or not, and workarounds that can be used with certain applications. You'll also know what offline installers and other setups you'll need to back up. For example, since I've gone dark, but I still want to continue working on Cactus even after Windows 10's EOL, I've downloaded the entire Visual Studio 2022 Community Edition archive, and can install everything completely in an offline environment.

your claim seems to be that merchants can harm consumers more without the government's help than with the government's help; that is, that when the government attempts to help merchants harm consumers, the government's help is not only ineffective but actually counterproductive, instead having a protective effect

stated thus, the thesis seems both implausible on its face and empirically falsified by abundant historical evidence; not only does history contain such egregious counterexamples as the great leap forward, chernobyl, the opium war, and the congo free state https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Congo_Free_State#/media/File:N... but also abuses less serious in degree but far more numerous and long-lasting, such as the british raj's regulation of the consumers of thread and yarn https://www.sgbgatelier.com/world/2019/11/21/5-ways-imperial..., the predatory pricing in mining companies' so-called company stores, and the recent intentional addition of allergens to many food products in the usa
