That's the approach I used, but I wanted a document I could collaborate on and without having the risk of leaking it on the internet. In GDrive it's as simple as share -> specify email address.

In cryptpad you have to share your profile, the person has to "add you to their contacts" from your profile page, then they will appean in your contacts and you can add them as collaborators.
The reverse is also an option: ask them to share their profile link, then you can add them. Unfortunately non-tech person don't even understand where their profile link is.

There is also a concept of "team drive", which is cool, a bit rough around the edges. In that case you can send invites to people and they can join and share a single directory, which is great.

Overall nice piece of software I'd say!

This isn't how the mortgage market works. Qualifying mortgages are guaranteed by Fannie and Freddie. The Fed's participation in the mortgage market has been for liquidity, not credit, purposes.

Kill Fannie & Freddie and the 30-year mortgage goes away. Ban the Fed from buying mortgage securities and rates go up a bit.
The article is about Hertz renting out Teslas in the US. That's what I was talking about, and that's what I thought you were talking about because you didn't mention that your experience was based on renting a different brand of EV in a different country.

Teslas work fine with 3rd party chargers. It's just that (as you noticed with your Polestar rental) 3rd party chargers are inconvenient and tend to be poorly maintained.
Yeah on the subject of single beginner jumps, you're allowed to jump on a static line without too much training. What this means in practice is that you have to get yourself out of whatever situation is causing you to approach the ground at terminal velocity. Someone I worked with did a static line jump for her first skydiving experience and her chute twisted together. Luckily she remembered the training they gave her and she was able to kick her legs and get the chute untwisted, but she was probably in the top 10-20% of people I've met in terms of her willingness to pay attention and remember directions. I think a lot of people would give in to panic.

When I skydived it was tandem, so at least I would be going out with someone who was experienced. I would probably do it again if I wasn't married with a child.
Traversing a rectangle of grass at 2mph in a backyard is absurdly simpler than self-driving cars on open roads, and the absolute worst-case is something like a foot or pet injury.

There are multiple companies that already sell automatic lawn mowers in the $1000+ range. Some you bury a boundary wire around the target area, others figure it out with cameras.
I agree except for the part about monopoly. There are in fact competing card networks.

The bitter pill to swallow is that consumer preferences played a role in evolving this system. Card networks are managing a two sided market, and that means offering value to both the merchant and the consumer. Reward programs are examples of consumer value. If Visa decided to kill its “signature” interchange tier, those customers would move to MasterCard.
I suspect you have no idea what the “top 5%” looks like (in the US).

The bottom of that 5% looks like extremely upper middle class. Big houses, probably a vacation somewhere nice once a year, new cars fairly regularly, etc.

The middle most likely live in gated communities, with any kids going to private schools. They fly first/business class everywhere and can probably even afford to buy one of those tickets at a moments notice. Their closet is worth more than most people will earn in several years of working.

At the top end, these people have multiple tennis courts, pools, basketball courts, etc in their back yard. If there is something they want, they most likely have staff on hand to handle it. If they want to go somewhere, they hop in one of their private jets, helicopters, or chauffeured cars and go there. Oh, and they have a team of lawyers ensuring they never pay a dime in taxes.

It is a good question! The 404 status code is useful context. The browser (or user agent, crawler, your code!) can act however it likes in response to the 404. A browser will render the page still, thus all the funky 404 pages
since sites can apply their branding to the error. If this were not the case the browser might show a generic message to the user (people would get used to this).

An example of where the browser might ignore the body is
in a 301 redirect.
It is undefined behaviour to modify objects declared as const (except if those objects have mutable members, in which case the mutable members can be modified).

const int a = 1;

If you try to const_cast away the const of x to change its value, you have undefined behaviour. As for pointers, if you make a const pointer to a non-const object then all it means is that you cannot modify the object via that pointer, not that the object will never be modified.

int a = 1;
int b = &a;
const int c = &a;

a = 2;

Both b and c are now 2 and this is absolutely fine, and the compiler won't try to optimise out any reads of *c and assume its value is still 1 as const/non-const pointer aliasing is allowed (C has the restrict keyword, it's not in C++).

Show HN: My AI-native newsletter platform to keep families connected
Hi everybody. When I first got on facebook as a tween it was a great place to keep up with friends and family. Social media has grown into a lot of amazing platforms but the thing all of them are terrible at is keeping me up to date on what the people I care about are up to. Every time I open Facebook I can feel my brain sweat (not a joke). I hate notifications and clutter, so I just turn it off instead of engaging.

One day I was looking at my fridge and had a family christmas card hanging on it with a magnet. It was one of those "family update" type cards if you've ever seen one. That's when it clicked.

I and two friends have since built "Easy Letter" to be your weekly AI powered newsletter about your family. You create / join groups, post updates on your profile however you want, and then an AI collates those updates into a per group summarized newsletter emailed out weekly.

If I could get my family to use it, I'd sit on the couch every Saturday with my coffee and just scroll through a single email to see what's going on with my family. I'm running ads but I haven't gotten any users. I really hope someone fills this gap.

If you have any constructive criticism please share. I'm still a coding newbie though. Sorry!
I think it's poor form to bring the unvetted outputs of a pseudorandom algorithm to a discussion with real people who are investing their own mental effort and emotional energy. If you couldn't be bothered to have the thought, why would you expect other people to listen to you?

That's the opposite of having "lots of variety of opinion and passion as a society". It's outsourcing cognition to a machine designed to emulate the most banal, superficial, and mediocre aspects of human expression.
Beautiful presentation. I love when visualizations serve the goal and not the other way around. Tufte would be proud.
I've found that during my time as a front end developer the amount of time spent wiring stuff in ways that could be automated was high enough to build something new.
> How did you call a function if you didn’t have a stack for the return address or local variables? Here’s how it worked. First, the compiler defined a secret global variable for each inbound function parameter, plus another secret global variable for each function to hold the return address. It also defined a secret global variable for each of the function’s local variables.

I always assumed that functions did something like this behind the scenes. At the lowest level, all of memory is just a very large, globally-accessible array of numbers. Functions are just JMPs with fancy syntax sugar.

...is that completely wrong? Do modern computers actually have some type of hardware support for functions?

Very hard for me to understand why, in a world of Google docs, anyone would want to deal with the bloated mess that is ms office.

I was helping an elderly relative who works as a translator and hasn’t touched a modern version of word in about 5 years.

They had a new computer and I got an ms office sub for them.

The poor person re-did about 4 hours of their work 3x because they couldn’t find the file MS Word had guaranteed them it had saved, so they had to start from scratch.

It did save it. In their fucking cloud and made it so opaque that the user couldn’t possibly understand wtf was happening. It took me, a tech professional a good 5 minutes to snap out of the dark pattern and realise what was going on.
I was stoked as a kid making games in "Unlimited Adventures" and exchanging them for free online. I did this in addition to spending time on my useless education (which eventually turned out to be useful to me), not instead of it.

It's frustrating that the unattended upgrades apply to every package, but luckily you can blacklist things that cause problems. I've had problems with NVidia tools being upgraded before the driver is (since I rarely restart), and don't like upgrades that require restarts, so I do this first thing:

sudoedit /etc/apt/apt.conf.d/50unattended-upgrades

In Unattended-Upgrade::Package-Blacklist, add

"linux-";
"nvidia-";
"libnvidia-";
"xserver-";

When I do a planned restart, I run apt dist-upgrade just before it to do the updates.

How am I doing that? I am claiming that LLMs lack imagination. They are incapable of creating out of whole cloth or interpretation.

Saying they cannot create based off of a vague suggestion is very much in line with that claim. I consider it a vital difference between Stephen King being inspired and LLMs mashing training inputs together.
I'm less surprised if AWS internally pays AWS list prices, because that's just internal accounting. From the even relatively small AWS customers I know, none of them needed to get very far into the 6 digits per year spend before a couple of quiet mentions to their account manager that they were reviewing other options was enough to get steep discounts.

Add in lots of credits, and if you pay list price, you're being taken to the cleaners..

I've done contract work for clients to be ready to migrate both as part of maximising credits and as part of negotiating posture, and the savings can be enormous (though it'd still usually be cheaper to use managed servers).

You're making a huge assumption that their markup is the same for credit card transactions! You're also making broad oversimplified assumptions about the what merchants do in response to transaction fees. Multiple implausible things need to be true for high end card users to be losing out on this scheme. Most likely the high end users come out at least slightly ahead and most of the cost is borne by lower end users and merchants.

Don't the most recent documents appear on the welcome screen when you open MS Word?
Nice.

Are any of the many "safe versions of C" getting any traction? There have been so many. It's not a technical problem. It's a mindshare problem.

The future in this area may be something that takes in existing C code and uses a LLM to recognize idioms and annotate. Without some automated way to convert legacy code, this isn't going to happen.

(One big problem with converting to Rust is that Rust's data model is so far from C/C++ that you can't really convert much existing code. You have to rethink the design to fit the affine type model. That's hard.)

“the Jewish lobby” is widely—and correctly so—regarded as an anti-Semitic trope. Anyone should refrain from using it. Even Albanese regrets having used these words a decade ago, and has apologized for doing so.

If you want to talk about AIPAC and similar groups you should use the more accurate term Pro Israel lobby, which Albanese has indeed used since. In fact I would argue there is nothing Pro Jewish about AIPAC. AIPAC doesn't really care about American Jews. They only care about furthering Israel’s war machine and that Israel’s human rights violations continues to go unpunished. Even when this policy harms American Jews.

Also the trope that Israel controls the USA is also both untrue and anti-Semitic. The USA is perfectly capable of aligning them selfs with a criminal foreign governments on their own if it somehow serves their interest. They did so with Apartheid South Africa, they do so with Saudi Arabian, and there was no “Jewish Lobby” making them do so. The truth is that Israel is an antagonistic country in the Middle East, and it serves the interest of the USA to keep this region unstable. You don't need an evil race of people to keep colonialism alive, you just need plain old capitalists.
There are a ton of free services only accessible to those with money. For example, if you buy jewelry from any luxury store you can often also bring it in for free cleaning. But they will honor this for any piece you bought from them. And if you bring in a mix of pieces they will often clean them all.

Luxury retail isn’t often worth it, but when it is it comes with lifetime services.

For anyone else who gets stuck with a window where the draggable part is off-screen on Windows, if you click the icon in the taskbar to "focus" the window, hold Win+Shift and hit the up arrow, it'll maximize the window so you can see the controls. If it's on a different monitor, or on a "ghost" monitor your computer thinks is plugged in but isn't actually, use Win+Shift and left/right arrow keys until you can see the window :)

Still a very stupid problem to have to solve.

> Is this allowed by Google's terms?

Why does it have to be?
Right, and I'm not doubting the value of creative pursuits like Roblox. I made and distributed calculator games during math class. What I'm doubting is that they can function as a useful alternative to school for most kids. (This is what you're suggesting, right?) I can see it as supplementing school for some, but not as a replacement.
I think you're right. The actual rental car model is to garner large discounts from the auto manufacturer, rent the car for a time, then sell it via the rental car used-car lot.

The purchase discount (maybe fleet rate) is usually wrapped in a contract - the car must NOT be sold within a certain time or under a certain mileage - and in this way does not compete with the manufacturer's car dealers.

Hertz and Tesla did not have any sort of contract like this. This means that Hertz did not have any concessions from Tesla. Instead of Tesla having a special relationship with Hertz - a car discount, guaranteed quick repairs, possibly special rental-car software helping renters onboard with the car - Hertz got NOTHING.

It should have gotten something, at minimum some sort of fleet rate. It was a VERY good customer. Instead Tesla gave nothing and got a lot of bad PR in the end.
Elon believes in doing his own PR, but Tesla does not, simple as that. If I'm to believe that Tesla does believe in PR then, as I mentioned in response to another user, I'd wager they'd be doing a lot more to improve their image given how much of a negative impact Elon's poor attempts at shaping public discourse via Twitter has had on Tesla lately, where their stock is at, etc.

An "about" page is bog standard stuff and a pretty paltry effort in the grand scheme of the things a PR department at a company the size of Tesla would otherwise traditionally be doing. It's like, yes, technically that's a form of PR, sure, but it ain't much.
There are things you have to do while tandem but they're things that make it easier for the instructor to control the descent, and also things that lower the risk of you breaking something when you reach the ground.

I was wondering about that. It is more mature an less complex so it seems probable it is safer.
the primitive state of charging in the US was a very large factor in the decision. i own an EV (egolf), so i'm already used to how terrible charging can be.

last year i went on a trip to LA and got a polestar for 4 days! car was fine, but finding a working and available charger was a nightmare. after spending 10m on one charger that would take my CC but not connect to the car, i moved to another spot and tried again. that charger would actually connect to my car, but it wouldn't take my CC. a few minutes after that, i called chargepoint tech support but neither of us could understand as i was in a parking garage.

after 15m on the phone before giving up and about to punch something, someone left and a new charger spot opened up. that one worked, but it wasn't chargepoint so i had to download a new app.

so, it took over 45m for me to get the car plugged in and a ton of stress for the ONE charge i needed to perform. i can guarantee that my experience is far from out of the ordinary, and i will never rent an EV again.
recursion is compressing the domain so small it eats itself, crafting a small set of function is mirroring this, kinda like grammars

I don't think this means anything. At best it's a completely abstract claim with nothing backing it up. It isn't "compressing a domain" to do iteration differently.

afaik map and fold were defined recursively

Fundamentally they are useful because the do the iteration for you. Internally it doesn't matter if the iteration is done in a roundabout way with recursion, they aren't about recursion and don't really have anything to do with them, just because some language decides to do iteration with recursion.

that was what i was pointing at, iterators are not encapsulated enough

You keep saying iterators, I keep saying iteration, but the only difference here is that the recursive version hides the accumulation in the arguments on the function. There isn't any more encapsulation, just a variable moved into the function argument. The brevity is from haskell's type deduction, not recursion.

Human-sized robots (arguably needed for some of the tasks you list, being able to walk stairs, etc.) will be creepy due to how physically imposing they’ll be, and with a risk of being dangerous due to how massive they’ll need to be. For example falling over due to malfunction/collision/tripping, and potentially crushing a small child. I don’t see such a product happening for home use.
> Very hard for me to understand why, in a world of Google docs, anyone would want to deal with the bloated mess that is ms office.

My mom had to buy a copy of MS Office. Her university provided free ms office online, but there were certain features missing from it she needed for her papers. I am remembering wrong, but it was annotations? Citations? I do not remember.

Libreoffice kinda could do it, but I could not find how online, while MS had it properly documented on their website and so many youtubers making videos on MS Office had it listed on their website.

Edit: also found out MS Office can screen record and record her webcam. Very useful for her giving a remote presentation during covid.

I don't get the point of your comment. They were only owned by Opera from 2010 to 2013, that's more than 10 years ago.
Exactly. Especially for contract negotiations & track changes with a counterparty. Only MS can figure out their screwed up document formats. Office is terrible these days, it is so damned slow. I remember Office 97, so fast and responsive on a Pentium 90, now back in the dark ages of slow bloatware and network latency. It takes so long to open a document, I forget what I was doing the week I double clicked on the file.
Very strong constant magnetic fields don't seem to be dangerous (at least at the kind of levels MRI machines work at, which are within an order of magnitude of the strongest magnets on the planet). A very rapidly changing strong magnetic field can be dangerous, because it induces currents in your body, like in your nerves. There are safety limits (very conservatively set) in MRI machines on how quickly they adjust magnetic fields, as if they were to really go for it there's a risk of heart problems (in the moment, it's not like CT scans where more exposure means more risk later in life).
I wouldn't want any of those devices in the first place because they're all locked-in trash.

The first time I hit on something I couldn't do because of an arbitrary Apple limitation, I'd throw the thing in the garbage where it belongs.
