I've been a flickr user since 2005. I haven't uploaded a single image since 2014. Why? Because the quality of the service went downhill and I knew that it would eventually go away.

I think we have different perspectives on things. Flickr wasn't a way to archive content, it was a way to share it before social media showed up. The need for Flickr died over the years.

I don't really care if Flickr deletes the photos or not, they were all backed up when I originally uploaded them because I've been conditioned to services just deleting content on a whim. Those of us in crypto say, not your keys, not your coins. Similar mentality. I'm accustomed to hostility.

Sending a FINAL NOTICE and then a more friendly reminder, and then not doing anything, is hostile behavior intended to extort people to pay money for a service that really hasn't seen any improvement in a very long time.

My $0.02... listen to them and shut it down and stop burning money on it. But you won't do that cause 'the choice' must be profitable enough to keep it going.
People take it seriously and all it got us was a bunch of idiot cyber box-checkers and a lot of paperwork.

The fundamental problem is pushing to digitize everything way too fast and being totally irresponsible with the data. You should have to pass a competence test before you integrate computerization of a lot of these kinds of processes, but obviously the tech lobby would not like that one bit because they only exist on account of selling their victims a sense of overconfidence.
yeah, for deep frying certain frozen food products, it might be better to reach temperatures above 170 °C, so the oil doesn't get too cold as you add the frozen food.

> Can you repair your hairdryer? It’s literally a Chinese motor with a Chinese resistor, the two most frequent objects in the world.

Most hair dryers don’t come with parts manuals so we wouldn’t know exactly which replacement part to get. And there’s more to it like a switch, a cord, etc. These things could be designed for repair but they would have to provide reliable part numbers for the internals, which they currently do not do.

> Objects in the industrial world can’t be repaired.

Objects in the industrial world most certainly can be repaired and it happens all the time. For example here is how a giant excavator tire is repaired:

Looked to "analog" for Bay Area - center of advanced tech, and for the US, which from my country perspective was way more advanced.

I must've be n dreaming about the rides I've taken in a Waymo recently in Phoenix then. Driverless cars aren't for every situation, but they're very capable and safe in many situations already. I'm personally very excited about a technology that makes transportation more available and safer for all road users.

That would work perfectly yes! It's not the internet connection that bothers me (in fact I'd probably use the sync).

But usually developers don't care enough about the tiny userbase of FreeBSD to even consider that. If you would do that, I would really like it, though I can imagine that from a time/gains perspective there is no point. Which I do totally understand.

One thing I like is that your monthly fee is very reasonable. Obsidian costs double the price of my entire Microsoft 365 subscription :) Besides it being electron that's another issue for me. Especially because it's just not really that great.
I suppose I’m the guy pushing k8s on midsized companies. If there have been unhappy engineers along the way - they’ve by the vast majority stayed quiet and lied about being happier on surveys.

Yes, k8s is complex. The tool matches the problem: complex. But having a standard is so much better than having a somewhat simpler undocumented chaos. “Kubectl explain X” is a thousand times better than even AWS documentation, which in turn was a game changer compared to that-one-whiteboard-above-Dave’s-desk. Standards are tricky, but worth the effort.

Personally I’m also very judicious with operators and CRDs - both can be somewhat hidden to beginners. However, the operator pattern is wonderful. Another amazing feature is ultra simple leader election - genuinely difficult outside of k8s, a 5 minute task inside. I agree with Paul’s take here tho of at least being extremely careful about which operators you introduce.

At any rate, yes k8s is more complex than your bash deploy script, of course it is. It’s also much more capable and works the same way as it did at all your developers previous jobs. Velocity is the name of the game!

I wasn't chiding that commenter for human nature, I was chiding them for breaking HN's rules. If they hadn't broken HN's rules they could have human-natured all they wanted and much as I might have disliked it, I wouldn't have posted a moderation reply.

When I post a reply of the form "I know it's [... understandable/forgiveable ...] but [... you still broke the rules ...]", it's the second bit which is the active moderation ingredient. The first bit is there to express something in common with the other person, in the hope that they won't feel like they're being attacked personally by the second bit.

More importantly, though: consistency is impossible!
It seems every domain and human endeavor in existence has some form of disagreement between practitioners who desire progress/advancement and people who are content to never change or learn anything new, in spite of glaringly obvious benefits.

It's brave to say that no one has come up with better ideas than Unix and C because it's bound to rile up users of (your favorite platform + language here).

I also think that someone saying that there aren't any better ideas than Unix and C might just have different values/interests in computing.
Hopefully: the eventual pursuit of Utopia.

I think the Humans may need a bit more of a push than this though to get their asses in gear and their brains turned on, but removing/minimizing the advantage of only certain actors having access to powerful tools is a big deal imho.

> Not everything the CIA does is bad

Name one good thing.

> There have been protests to stop musicians from inserting subliminal Satanic messages in music, and protests to "stop the steal", and against some basic COVID measures. I'm just saying ... because there are protests doesn't mean anyone is correct there.

This is a ridiculous response. I said massive protests. The 2003 anti-war protests are actually in the Guiness Book of World Records: https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/world-records/74335-lar...

My point wasn't even about who was correct. My point was that not everyone believed the lies. In fact a very large number of people disbelieved the lies at the time and didn't need "hindsight".
Not to mention the blatant attempt to steal the last election using fake electors and behind-the-scenes calls to various elected officials.

The author’s spot on about framework.

I tried out Observable Framework and built a little interactive plot (https://github.com/willmeyers/observable-ssta). It was incredibly easy to setup and get data plotted.

My only gripe is that I wish you could configure Python data loaders to use virtualenvs.
Oh yeah good point. I never checked that one out because I don't really use owncloud but it's worth a look.

Great thing for appealing to what performs better, and then code in that manner.

That’s a great point that everyone else is overlooking. The comparison is obvious if you have a little experience with frat culture.

(I was never in one, but I went to a college where fraternities are a huge deal, and I never felt comfortable there. I packed my schedule with extra classes to get my degree and get out as soon as I could.)
It was the tone you used. Your post had strong statements like

> employers need to feel the negative consequences of their behavior. Their business needs to suffer

This is not merely encouraging personal autonomy. It’s the prescription of political action. It’s dialectical materialism. Could be a strange coincidence.
It mainly means fewer bureaucrats and administrators and more luxurious campus facilities. Which is where all the growth is in university spending these days.

> Have you built a school in Nepal?

Yes. Sponsored the build anyway. I didn't lug the bricks miles from the nearest road!

>Do you have a link where I could?

https://thejunipertrust.org/

>You want 1000 schools you need 1000 schools worth of raw materials and 1000 crews to build them and roads to get all that stuff there and utilities to be extended to cover it.

If you had $10M to spend, then building 1000 small schools probably wouldn't be the best approach. For the reasons you say. But I don't have $10M to give.

>our society is set up to allow for billionaries and you think it should be fairer and that all that money should be easy to spread around more equitably

Yes. Rich people should be taxed more. Not a popular viewpoint on HN, I'm sure.

We could fix it, if we wanted to. But the billionaires have the power, and they don't want it fixed.

>You don't get that it's 100% cognitive dissonance to believe that Nepal is any different? The only difference is the scale of the numbers.

Nepal is a poor country with chronic inequality. But, because it is a poor country, your dollar can do a lot more good there.
Google Maps have supported offline maps for many years.
Why is it always public cloud (aws, gcp, azure) vs. "bring your own hardware and deploy it in racks".

There are multiple providers that offer VPS and ingress/egress for a fraction of the cost of public clouds and they mostly have good uptime.
The harm can be from the initial screening too. The lifetime risk for complications from routine colonoscopy is around 1.6%. The lifetime risk of colo-rectal cancer is 4-5%.

So already before investigating the result, there's a very real consideration whether increasing the number of colonoscopies is likely to be a net benefit.
We did it when I lived in student co-ops back in 2009.

> If you're expecting app/FE devs to have to learn it

Why would anyone expect it? It's not their job, is it? We don't expect backend devs to know frontend and vice-versa, or any of them to have AWS certification. Why would it be different with k8s?

> Just chucking a container on a non-k8s managed platform (e.g. Cloud Run) would be much simpler, and no pile of bash scripts.

Simpler to deploy, sure, but not to actually run it seriously in the long term. Though, if we are talking about A container (as in singular), k8s would indeed be some serious over-engineering
Good point about k8s vs. AWS docs — a lot of the time people say “just use ECS” or the AWS service of the day, and it will invariably be more confusing to me and more vendor-tied than just doing the thing in k8s.
This one is probably more for Scaleway to gain experience than for customers to use seriously.

Of course, that excuse could be true for customers too.
> To quote the designer: "I remember wanting it to feel very locomotive - like a massive fist moving through the air"

Says it all really.

Not mentioned in this video are the correspondingly higher headlights. I'm sure that contributes to the danger (are there any studies that confirm this?)
If you're talking about OpenShift on rented commodity compute, maybe. If you're talking about GKE/AKS/EKS or similar, I disagree wholeheartedly; you're then paying several multiples on the compute and a little extra for Kubernetes.
The explainability/methodology is lauded.

Not sure what a letter to the editor would accomplish. The nature paper only interpreted radiographs and the only claim of the authors was basically that the model is a better predictor of pain than KLG.

Your comment misinterpreted this as “using the patients' symptoms and objective data” (when they only used objective data) and added “may actually outperform current medical standards” which was not the claim as current medical standards already consider patient symptoms in addition to objective data, as stated in the article reference to the TKA guideline.

When I report a joint xray I’m not assessing the patient’s pain level, they can be asked that.
The T-Head C910: no. It is considered a bit of an old core by now. It is open source so it has been adopted a lot.

The RISC-V standard has extensions for both scalar and vector cryptography instructions but yet only a few cores out there support one or the other. Look out for CPUs based on the SiFive P670 which should have the latter.
When Android smartphones with RISC-V show up, they will also have vector cryptography.
It is a fundamentally bad idea to do without very specific understanding of the risks. E.g. many programs intended to expand mass screening for breast cancer were reconsidered after it became clear that it was not a given that they would provide a net benefit, because it takes a very low level of risk from screenings and subsequent follow-ups before mass screening becomes harmful when applied to groups where it is likely to save many lives.
An interesting point (Dutch interpretation), since it obviously causes the writer of the article to be in pain and embarrassment. Which may also be a secondary point. It self selects for those who are willing to go through the hazing.
I know that. I'm just saying, rather than buying cheap olive oil for cooking which is probably very impure and diluted with cheap vegetable oil, there are other oils which one can purchase which aren't imitated with frauds as often and which have higher smoke points.
It’s interesting because they got so much right but they just couldn’t quite imagine the computer so they have humans pulling levers, remotely operating machinery, being carried by advanced surveillance helicopters…

Yes. I’ve been running it on a VisionFive 2 and a BeagleV-Ahead.
The US is too weighed down by legal and regulatory barnacles for this to have a chance.
In the case of The Juniper Trust, the vast majority of the organizing is done for free, by volunteers in the UK and Nepal.

Why would it cost anything to get 'the local authorities on board' to build a school - unless the country is totally corrupt?
You might like kubernetes kustomize if you don't care for helm (IMO, just embrace helm, you can keep your charts very simple and it's straight forward). Kustomize takes a little getting used to, but it's a nice abstraction and widely used.

I cannot recommend terraform. I use it daily, and daily I wish I did not. I think Pulumi is the future. Not as battle tested, but terraform is a mountain of bugs anyway, so it can't possibly be worse.

Just one example where terraform sucks: You cannot both deploy a kubernetes cluster (say an EKS/AKS cluster) and then use kubernetes_manifest provider in a single workspace. You must do this across two separate terraform runs.
So call it RPC. The author is being pedantic, which is fine, we all are in our own ways.

But the first example is clearly unusable to anyone with a quarter of a braincell, so who cares?

It's also interesting to see what they could not envision. For example, they obviously could not imagine that women could wear anything other than a dress.

> I recently needed to fix some issues in something I filled with the government. Email support used to exist but probably cut due to budgets. Chat support used to exist but probably cut due to budgets.

With all that said, what makes you hope any government LLM will escape the whims of budget cuts? I'd rather walk in and wait for hours than share a 500 token/sec chatbot with thousands of other users and never get a resolution.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/P-adic_valuation

It's nothing fancy, get the prime power decomposition of your number and pick the exponent of p.

There's a clever way to do that for a factorial, but I have the Pari/GP app on my phone so I just did:

valuation(52!,2)

which gives the answer 49, so 52! is divisible by 2 forty-nine times. Interestingly chatgpt4 turbo got it right with no extra prodding needed.

> But I also do not discount the possibilities that, sometimes, the regulators are wrong.

On which grounds? Wrong as-in, you disagree with their interpretation of the law, or as-in disagree with their punishment? Or do you have evidence the regulators lacked?

The greatest lawyers in the world were payed yacht-club money to figure this out, and the furthest they got was saving Microsoft from a breakup. I don't agree with every law or court decision either, but in hindsight it almost feels like the US hasn't done enough antitrust regulation. Google and Apple are both well overdue for a reckoning.

> If Apple's limitations are uncompetitive, then Apple will simply die.

Well, not exactly. Pretty much every single modern antitrust lawsuit has arisen because the company in question won't die. Anticompetitive behavior often benefits users to entice them into defending a broken system, like offering ActiveX or free long-distance service. Again, neither of those things necessarily "killed" their parent company (nor effectively functioned as a defense in court).

> Let them decide how they want to handle their company.

That's a good note to leave things off on. Likewise, let Europe's constituent states decide how to handle their markets and neither of us will end up disappointed.

The problem with that is that even "essentially no risk of false positives" starts adding up when you do millions of tests every year.

If those tests are done on demographics where the chance of a true positive is also very low and the difference in risk profile between catching it during such screening vs. waiting until the patient discovers it is not very significant, it can take a very low rate of complications before it becomes a problem.

But, yes, we do limit that, and that is a major reason there are very few mass screening programs.

I don't think there's anything wrong with pointing these issues out, even if you think AI is merely an accelerant of existing social issues. And it's not necessarily a question of how left you are to believe so. Ultimately what's important is the outcome, and if the outcome is an increase in marginalization, then I think something should be done. Stopping AI is probably suboptimal but the alternative that preserves the rights of the marginalized is getting everyone to agree that society should be more fair, and in that context can you really blame people for espousing a belief they find more actionable or practical?
I don't know about this.

Ping pong and badminton are immensely enjoyable and played by both boys and girls without regard for the other's level of participation.

Female participation in track hasn't reduced male participation. The US female running team is incredible - with the level of flash and charisma that's on par with the the best men in history (I'm thinking Usain Bolt).

Other sports such as surfing have seen much higher participation from women - their skills and quality has improved considerably, but that doesn't seem to be making the boys avoid surfing.

I think many boys just want to play with someone that's close to or better than their skill level. I think this is also true of many girls. Then there are people that want to just play "for fun", but things get ugly when one person's fun is another person's utter boredom.
