We have 400 Mbps symmetric with Hotwire, and whenever I do a speedtest, I get at least that much, sometimes it bursts to 600.

But then there's something wrong with their peering or something. Youtube videos randomly buffer even at 1080p. Downloads randomly drop from 400 Mbps to 10. Sometimes the problem lasts an evening, and then goes away. I have no idea.
I personally loved taking busses and trains when I lived in the city. I didn't go far but with a pass I'd take them all the time. I now live in a suburban sprawl and I can never convince my wife to bus it. She usually has a point: it's pretty inconvenient to get from our home to a bus/train stop. I live by a train but would love it if they were electric though that'd do nothing to reduce brake dust.
Software is about creating automation. Automation is never about increasing costs over existing methods. It is in the end about scaling up. If the system had to have just as many more people to scale it wouldn't be worth it. Therefore devs are scaling themselves out of work.

It's a natural outcome of mega corps and the laws designed to allow them to be mega. Business size should be limited and most tech intellectual property invalidated. That way the devs that can't get hired by the existing market can create new markets.
What do you mean by "rewriting everything"? Or maybe your definition of "per-tenant database" is different from mine. In our product, it's just a small layer which routes requests to the target organization's DB. When an organization is created, we create a new DB. Most of application code has no idea there are different DBs under the hood.

There are logical DBs (folders/files on a single physical server), and there's a few physical servers. We're currently at the stage where the first physical server hosts most of smaller organizations, and all other physical servers are usually dedicated servers for larger clients with high loads.

I have no idea where you get that acceptance of same sex marriage arises from Christian ideas. Because in my personal experience it really doesn't. I live in Italy and a lot of discrimination against gay people (me included), and a big part of the reason why we don't get actual marriage, is catholic rhetoric. Most of the homophobia I've experienced in my life, anecdotally, has been from devout christians: the more devout, the worse the discriminantion. So although I have no data on hand, I have a very strong suspicion that Christianity has nothing to do with it. If anything, it seems like at least in Europe, the more secular countries tend to get better rights for queer people and they get them faster (I think the first European country to get gay marriage was the Netherlands, back in 2001. And they're one of the least religious countries in Europe)

Excellent! With my solid expertise spanning nearly two years in Python, Django, Flask, MySQL, REST API, Git, GitHub, HTML, and CSS, I'm eager to leverage this platform to discover roles that align perfectly with my skill set and experience. Can't wait to explore the exciting job opportunities it has to offer!
What's wrong with 40mbs? I honestly don't need more than 20. The only time I even notice faster speeds is when my podcasts download.

I'm curious what types of situations require more than 40mbps, and why the inability to do those tasks would mean that someone doesn't haver "real broadband access". I was pushed from 50 to 75 a while back and seriously hardly notice it.
>and you will be lucky if it lasts 10 years.

I have at least 20 various pieces of furniture from IKEA that have lasted more than 10 years, some even closing on 20, even after multiple moves to various college dorms. Dresser drawers, dining table, sofa, bed platform, sit stand desk, etc.

I do not think I have ever thrown something out for breaking. Maybe gets scuffed or scratched up or chipped, but you can mostly use one of those latex paint touch up markers and make the damage nearly invisible.

Reminds me (tangentially) of when a coworker got let go, proceeded to open source code that I solely wrote (just some internal tooling), but editing the files to show he authored them. Think he was doing this to help find a new job by posting projects on GitHub. Company proceeded to contact him and the rest is history..
This is fantastic thanks for sharing.
I have used it in the share sheet when tapping share on an image and it works but given I am already providing the image, the screenshot is redundant.

That may also be the case, and not knowing a lot about this case it does seem like prosecution is probably merited here, and we should push back on tendencies like that across industries. My comment still stands, though; we should be quicker to disbar over a thing than to prosecute, evidentiarily speaking.
It’s also a good opportunity to remind family that bandwidth is cumulative. That is nonobvious to quite a few people I’ve talked to that are not super internet savvy. What I mean by that is that if zoom uses 3.8Mbps that means they probably maximum two people can probably be on a zoom call simultaneously comfortably in a 15 Mbps household while other people are doing regular things. 3 if that’s the only thing happening in the household.
But freedom has never been what these people have been about, it's just been about:

They don't like paying tax

They like having firearms and the right to murder other humans, king of the castle rules etc.

They want to control other people's genitals

Pretty much everything falls under those rules, which is the opposite of anything that Jesus said yet call themselves Christian.
>If you want professional ethics, you have to create a vehicle that can enforce professional ethics or wield political power -- a trade union or guild.

How's that working with police and/or teacher's unions?

Moreover, it's unclear how "professional ethics" would interact with legal and/or business decisions. If you think it's unethical and the legal department says it's A-okay, then what? For professions like engineering you could plausibly make the case that engineers should have the final say on decisions involving safety or structural soundness, but that's less convincing for business decisions. For instance would civil engineers be expected to reject building a luxury condo on "professional ethics" grounds because the the building would gentrify the neighborhood and displace marginalized groups?
Materialized views with pg_cron to refresh them? (Or even just cron and your usual interface, if you don't want to install something extra)
Been using Newsblur for a while after having tried out almost everything out there for android, Windows, Linux or the web. Really like that you can like/dislike authors or publishers to get more/none of their posts. Really helps remove the clutter which I don't like.

Does anyone know of a way to get daily summaries of noisy websites? Say, a website publishes around 200 of new articles which appear in the feed. What if instead of that, I get a single post with all the day's article titles and links so that I can quickly go to what peeks my interest? Category-wise per day would also be fine.

> so in fact there is an enormously strong legal case to justify their influence and power over lands that they never legally ceded to British Columbia or Canada

Not that i think this is a good thing, but arguably since this is all pre world war 2, wouldn't the land, in absence of a treaty, be british by right of conquest? Like its a pretty recent development in international law that you actually have to get the other side to ceed land. Most of history was brutal and violent with might makes right.
Well, once a copy of a public domain work is published, you can reproduce it from that publication without permission or license.
beds are the worse
Pardon my sloppy phrasing, I was rushing this out with my thumb because the GP was going grey fast.

I meant that in the “karma bombing” sense as far as “explicitly” goes.

And I should be more clear in both this subthread (as well as one other comment) that the guidelines I’m referring to aren’t the succinct ones on the literal guidelines page, but rather the evolved apparent consensus under “the @dang administration”.

This is a pretty natural and healthy seeming extrapolation of the idea that rigor should go up as contentiousness goes up, something I personally fail in too often even these days, but will always apologize for failing in.

Threads about OpenAI have set a new record for karma bombing proportional to front-page exposure, blowing away classics like crypto and social media and patent law, I’ve got at least one or two tuples of adjacent comments where the high-quality one got bombed and was on a #1 submission and the far worse form of the argument got too many upvotes on a less-engaged submission.

I’ll decline (for now at least) to speculate on the mechanism/explanation around this (apparent) trend, but it’s inching into “concerning”.
The way I see it traditional databases are frameworks, and we need to switch to something more like libraries - use the high-level interface when we need it, but be able to dig underneath. Postgres has taken some small steps in this direction with e.g. making the parser available as a separate library; some newer systems (e.g. distributed-first datastores that combine LevelDB with some higher-level layer) go further.
> You can't just run Java code. The JVM has a lot of tricks you have to customize for based on your workload.

This sounds like something you would hear 10 years ago in relation to the CMS garbage collector. Since Java 9, G1 has been the default gc for multi core workloads and is self-tuning. The CMS gc was removed 4 years ago. If you do need to tune G1, the primary knob is target pause time. While other knobs exist, you should think carefully before using them.

We run all of our workloads with vanilla settings.
I’m willing to bet a million dollars there was no CGI in figures recent video. What video are you even talking about??
How come I never heard of AllDone? Was the startup actually called something else?

Searching Elgoog doesn't turn up much..
Having used Postgres for many projects, yet never having used any of the other tools in the ecosystem, I'm surprised by how many tools there are!

How does one go about finding paying customers when developing a new database tool? How does one figure out the size of the market, and pricing structure?
Yeah, because that's what regular people like to eat. What, never had crackers with ham and cheese? Now, if you are going to serve gourmet meals in schools, go right ahead, I heard it's a thing in France. But don't delude yourself into thinking 8 year olds are going to eat boiled broccoli and whatever unappetizing thing you conjure up for protein. It's not "weak rules", it's no money and cultural attitudes. Either fix these, or let kids at least enjoy their lunch.
> Why would I willingly give up on everything I enjoy and make myself depressed?

This is a very dramatic take. Where in the article is anything even remotely approaching that implied?

This is just another form of protein that could be good, tasty, and healthy, and doesn't require animals to produce. There are many reasons this is a good alternative to have.

You could eat this for one meal a week, while still eating "real" meat the rest of the time, and help reduce the pressure on our ecosystem just a tiny bit.

Why'd you downvote me for asking a question? Or are you personally affiliated with the libraries?

My issue with Fiber is the documention.
The upload verification afaik requires:
- copy of ID
- clear photo of self holding up a hand-written sign saying either PornHub or a random phrase that is given

After that they manually compare the ID and photo.

But I can imagine there is going to be a market for verified accounts if access is given this way, and they can't do this process on every login. Plus it will require logins to access content in general, while I think most PH visitors never log in.
There is really nothing in Go that Java ecosystem lacks, in their 30 years of existence.

The only thing one could arguably argue that Go does better is value types, but even that requires careful coding so that escape analysis is triggered, and in that sense, it is only a matter to use a JVM implementation like GraalVM, OpenJ9, Android ART, PTC, Aicas, Azul.
Coming from the MS ecosystem i can definitely vouch for EF core, but I am more of a Dapper person myself.

But I don't use PG because my needs are not so heavy nor have I the data sizes or advanced features that makes PG a more reliable choice over sqllite.
Postgres is still single-node-first, and while Citus exists I'm skeptical that it can ever become as easy to administer as a true HA-first datastore. For me the reason to use something like Cassandra or Kafka was never "big data" per se, it was having true master-master fault tolerance out of the box in a way that worked with everything.

Yes it's similar to teleport, but I always found teleport way too expensive and and complex to set up. Also as you say it's not really open source.

Of course Kviklet isn't as mature yet but since I just want to target databases I think it has a bit of it's own niche.
If they bring that to Seattle, we’re going to need to print a lot of blue tickets. A lot.

Cyclists here operate in a gray area a mile wide. They are nominally supposed stop at stop signs and red lights, respect pedestrian right of way, signal turns, and all that stuff. But virtually none do, and I’ve never seen any consequences.

Well, I did witness one karmic consequence where one cyclist t-boned another cyclist as they both sailed through stop signs in SLU, sending the victim flying through the air. Luckily nobody was hurt.

Perhaps this gray area is intentional -lax enforcement due to prioritization or even a tacit understanding that cycling needs encouragement, and tickets are a bummer.
OSB is durable but you still need to be wary of formaldehyde in your home
LifeSpan Fitness TR800 Portable Walking Under Desk Treadmill. This was 800 (7 years ago?). I've heard good things about new treadmills.

The worst thing about the one I have is that it's 96 lbs and heavy to move. When you move it out of the way to sit down it is a real task. What you want is something you can setup easily and use and just put it away. Heck. I'm considering to upgrade.

I am also considering to get a new one that goes up to 8 mph where this is locked at 4... Maybe there is safety concerns but we'll see. (8 mph?...maybe I should get a real treadmil already.)
Preaching to the choir here, in your first two paragraphs.

It is available in my state but does not handle some detail (this year) I need. But still I won't touch it with a ten foot pole with F.R. etc, and not going to be chastised for saying so.

It's not like complaining here on HN is going to influence even one percent of the non-technical public anyway. And I learn things from others griping. :-D
IAAL but likely not in your jurisdiction, and I agree with this, because the biggest "legal" concern I would have as the linked OP is the company coming back and blaming me for some software I wrote that was out of my job scope entirely.

I would add that the goal isn't just to convince the company to delete the software, but rather to acknowledge and accept that there is no support, no warranty, and if things go wrong it's on their hands.
Top 3 in my experience:

- Scope creep.

- Bad product market fit.

- Insufficient time / money / talent.
The midwest can definitely get dark, but the "seeing" isn't as good as the oregon outback for a few reasons, 1) elevation, most of eastern oregon is above 1200m, steens mountain is almost 3000m. 2) climate, the midwest can be very humid and hazy, whereas the high desert is very arid and clear, 3) obscuration, eastern oregon is covered in mountain ranges with dry basins in between (hence "basin and range" name), and you only have to go over one range from any kind of town to have its light totally blocked.
For the definition I used earlier, the bytes don't change shape in between. That makes MMU and interpreted access direct, and compression indirect.
The Jebusites (who were a type of cannanite) if you believe the bible. If you don't believe the bible... while who knows if the battle is even a real historical event.

If you are trying to make some allusion to modern events i think its pretty silly to talk about 3000 year old battles that way, and even if you did, both sides of the battle are probably more closely related to modern jews than any other modern ethnic group, albeit who really knows when our only written source is the bible.
They keep boasting about having a lean tech team, but it is one of the worst things they do.

If you just look at their forum, the average time to complete a feature release is 4.5 years (Eg: SWP, STP (still not released), XIRR in their platforms, Instant withdrawal)

I signed for their products solely after being impressed by their tech blogs and Nadh's writing. After joining, I reported 4 bugs within a week. Their customer support is terrible (replies fast, have to give them that). They keep gaslighting me into believing problems I report don't exist, and then keep closing tickets. They take a week to reply for some tickets, but then close it if you don't reply in a day. Such policies show they are interested in just the metric of tickets "resolved". So I too gave up reporting them. I guess I created too many tickets, and was really annoying them.

I really wanted to enjoy using their products, but am stuck in their sub-par "ecosystem" now due to high costs of moving out (DP charges will be huge due to such a large quantity of unique shares, them holding MFs only in demat meaning I can't switch easily).
And because of your post I was prodded to learn more about layers, thanks for that!

I have a handful of sites I run on a VPS with a basic setup, including MySQL.

One thing I've always liked about MySQL is that it pretty much looks after itself, whereas with Postgres I've had issues before doing upgrades (this was with brew though) and I'm not clear on whether it looks after itself for vacuuming etc.

Should I just give it a go the next time I'm upgrading? It does seem like a tool I need to get familiar with.
Why downvoted? Genuine question.
If you're ever in LA, I recommend checking out the Getty. I'm by no means an art buff in any capacity, and honestly I thought going might be boring because I did the Getty Villa in Malibu when I was in elementary school and wasn't appreciative, but it completely changed my mind. Even if you don't like the art or the exhibits, the views of Los Angeles are amazing, probably better than Griffith in my personal opinion.

This solves the same problem, just not as well, the idea of an incrementaly maintained view is that only the update needs to be computed, so a count will increment or decrement as rows are inserted or deleted.

It means complex views that could take minutes or hours to calculate from scratch can be kept fresh in realtime.
On the contrary, I believe the existence of and ease of disbarring works as a substitute for prosecution, albeit under different terms of "law" and "justice-- if you can call it that.

At the same time, the very existence of disbarring without the due process required for convictions, also means, the "good ones" wouldn't risk it by speaking up and demanding "prosecution" of their peers.
That is a bizarre thing to care so much about.
This isn't a Getty Images initiative, but rather being run by the Getty Museum which is under the Getty Trust. My partner actually works on some of these systems at the Getty and you're right, it's daunting. The sad part is that the Getty gets to do these kinds of things only because it's one of the best endowed institutions on the planet with funding to pay researchers/archivists/developers to do this work. There is so much more that is locked away at large, medium, and small institutions that would be available for the public, but just isn't because of lack of funding.
> According to data from a Kantar Worldpanel ComTech report for the last three months up to August this year, Windows Phone-based devices accounted for 9.2 percent of smartphone sales in Great Britain, Germany, France, Italy and Spain.

You can play pedantic and assert 9.2 isn't the same as rounding it off to 10, anyway.
Privacy is one of the reasons I use an Android phone. I don't want Apple to know my location every time I read the GPS. I don't want Apple to know every app I install on my device. I don't want to give Apple my billing details just to make my own apps.

Whether you want more privacy or more functionality, the solution is the same. Use the device that you can control.
there's nothing wrong with soy itself but growing it at the scale we do is bad for the environment. most soy grown globally is used to feed livestock though so if we would just stop that and grow it for ourselves, it wouldn't be so much of an issue.
You're also legally bound not to compete with your company. You can't work for Google and build a search engine "on your own time". you can't work for Nintendo and make a game on the side.

What it means to compete will be decided by judges and lawyers in the gray areas but probably not hard to imagine clearly problem areas and likely not problem areas. If you want to know for sure, ask a lawyer and get a contract/letter from your employer to clarify.
One of the more obnoxious "features " of English.
for me at least, healthy sources of fat are the bigger problem. I'm pretty intolerant to carbs and processed food in general. So I ended up on a high fat diet. I'm sure I could survive on protein powder and butter.
So I think, Protein taste isn't the problem, getting the fat right in this mold-patty is probably going to be an issue.
