Don't even bother trying to get a rational explanation for this.

This kind of mentality is not rational.

the more expensive saw is 4 to 5x as much as a standard issue table saw of similar capabilities (barring the safety part). I don't think this will pan out when Congress critters get the details and tradeoffs.

Yes you will have an S3 fetch latency for downloading a layer file for such data. However we don't page out aggressively so it's a very unlikely event. Most of the time you will be fetching from a locally attached SSD which is superior and more predictable than EBS.

Where it works super well is the long tail of small and rarely used database - it pushes our costs way down.

Another advantage is that if the whole region goes down the S3 copy survives.

Finally if you separate storage and compute you can be serverless and scale to 0.
EnerJ – The Language of Good Enough Computing
So much this. I notice it a lot since I only use a dumbphone, and haven't bothered setting up a new laptop since my old one died during the covid times. It means that in social situations, I'm actually on board to engage with real people, since I'm not carrying any other distractions.

I feel a distinct drain in the social energy when some of the people present have their eyes glued to their phones. It would actually be better if they weren't even there.

I think that feeling of draining comes from the fact that if you do want something from them, like asking what they're ordering for food, or if we should go to another venue, you have to put in more effort. They need to do a context switch in which they look at you blankly while you bring them up to speed on what is happening.
This isn't about 'compliance'. It's fine if you didn't know about the practice and its purpose but that's neither my fault nor a reason to misrepresent what wrote.
> And unfortunately, the cmd.exe has different escaping rules compared to the usual escaping mechanism.

This "usual escaping mechanism" is a bit of a weasel word. Windows passes a single null-terminated character string to a process. Every application run-time must parse that into arguments itself.

I think what "usual escaping mechanism" refers to is the algorithm implemented in the Microsoft Visual C Run Time which takes the command line string and produces a char *argv[] for the main function.

There is no telling what uses that exact algorithm and what doesn't. Programs built with Microsoft languages probably do; obviously VC and VC++.
Managing your anger does not mean forgiving or not taking action, it just means you have freedom to do it so on a rational basis rather than emotional.

So you write your angry letter, burn it, then do what needs to be done, free from angry.

It could be from a place of empathy: I wish you to be happy, but I wish you to be happy very far away from me.

Or from a more selfish perspective, you simply want to know you did the best you could so that you don’t need to have any guilt on it.
Ooof. I really need to pick up another HD, these model sizes are killer.

Lacking a godly GPU, I will probably hold off for a quanitized version which has the potential to run okish on CPU or my modest GPU, but really appreciate the info.
It was his nth trip of how many? I think by 1504, the asshole might have brought trade goods of some sort or another, rather than committing robbery. Just a thought. Not big on the "wokeness" thing myself, but not a big fan of flimflam artists and extortionists either.
Videos are not as information dense as text - both because people talk slower than they read and because authors are forced to spend more time planning and editing. The difference between Loom and Tiktok is Looms don't have to compete for an audience (they are required to watch in order to do their job) which means they are orders of magnitude less carefully made.
SawStop was never against licensing the technology, and from what I'm reading about FRAND, it doesn't force the patent holder to open their patents, only to negotiate in a good faith manner that does not discriminate between licensees, meaning they cannot license the tech to DeWalt for $10/saw and try to make Bosch or Ryobi pay $100 per saw. It doesn't say they are forced to give away their IP for free.

I try not to be one of those people, but when I'm in a meeting with 20 people and only 3 are actively contributing it sure seems like some/many are doing just that. Any non-dev in a standup typically mentions how many meetings they went to yesterday, and will attend today, as if this is some badge of productivity - and I say this as a manager myself, someone who attends a lot of meetings!
> it might be true in places with icy/snowy weather. Many people try to reach that magic number on the sign no matter what the conditions are. That means that people driving to the conditions are going far slower than the other people, and as you said - the difference isn’t a good thing, in addition the the fast people being a lot more likely to crash on their own.

For an anecdote:

I went to Dallas to watch the eclipse. I got on I-45 to go home to Houston. Traffic was going great, typically about 90MPH in a 75 zone. There were several cars doing 110+ and zooming between lanes while several others were doing a mere 55. The worst were the people doing 55 in the left lane, being passed by people doing 65 in the right lane. The weather was "fine", just cloudy but a pleasant 85F.

Then, just around Richland, there was a sudden massive downpour and visibility went down to about 100 feet. I could feel my front-wheel-drive wheels losing grip for seconds at a time, even at 75.

It was unusual for my vehicle to lose grip at that speed, but I'm used to driving on slippery gravel roads. I also had expected (planned for) it because I had looked at the weather and knew it would be raining by the time I was home. Gotta keep everyone staggered and plenty of distance between each other. So I let off the gas and coast down in speed until traction was regained.

Even so, we didn't have to go very far on the freeway before everyone was 100% stopped for about 45 minutes. The weather was moving northeast (to a good measure of perpendicularity), so the weather will have hit that whole stretch of freeway about the same time. Someone at the "front" hydroplaned and wrecked with someone else around Streetman where I-45 turns west-ward. By the time I made it to the front, all of the emergency vehicles and both damaged vehicles were nowhere in sight -- so at least there's few rubberneckers.

Driving for the _current_ weather is a bad idea, and not enough people will consider what the weather could be in 30 seconds. That's only considering the weather. The fact that's people doing 55+ and people doing double that is also a massive safety issue on a 2-lane freeway.

Even inside of Dallas and Houston, people are RIDICULOUSLY crazy. If you drive for a few hours at speed limit on the freeways, then you will pass dozens of people doing 20 below in the left lane, and also have other dozens of people scoot between you and other cars with mere single-digit feet between you and them. There will be countless instances of other vehicles coming into your lane and immediately braking to avoid hitting the vehicle that was in front of you but now is in front of them. If you're ever in slow or stopped traffic, there will be a half dozen vehicles skipping past the traffic in emergency lanes.

So, I think speed limits aren't the only thing that need fixing. There needs to be much better safety education and enforcement. There's more to my opinion but I doubt it'd be popular -- consider how empathy, greed, and modern timeliness also contribute to these problems.
Isn't she the one that wrote that anti-trans moral panic book based on interviews with parents of trans people, but not actually any trans people?

Her other book was pure culture war opportunism, what's different about this one that makes it worth reading?
The biggest difference between enigma and Lorenz was Lorenz was broken without seeing a physical machine. It was broken as a very long message was transmitted twice with minor changes. That allowed recovery of of the plaintext and key stream
There's more than enough competent people who aren't asocial edgelords. Most people are happy letting other people live their lives and will in fact shit on people who don't allow others to do the same.

That's not hall monitoring, that's what the both of us think we're doing. Difference is one of us is shitting on people who would exclude others based on their identity, and the other is shitting on people who would shit on people who would shit on people based on their identity. You're not against shitting on people, you just want to be allowed to shit on other people without consequence. That's not how the world works. Talk shit, you get shown the door.

XP "fisher price" UI was trivial to disable in settings, giving you that same slate gray look of 98/2K, but with 24-bit color icons.

This was actually possible to do all the way up to and including Win7, which even had the icon taskbar working in that "Windows Classic" theme. And it was very good design - pretty easy on the eyes and not distracting, but you could also tell which element is which easily at a glance (unlike these days, when everything is flat).
Please elaborate and help us understand your view.

How does having an eMMC onboard make the board useless to you, even if you don't use this feature?
This is amazing!! Thank you! I don't even have a PS controller and I'm grateful this exists.

I hope you'll do one for Xbox Elite controllers and button remapping next :) It sucks having to boot into a Windows VM to remap them.
I agree with a lot of what you're saying, but I have to wonder if, at certain frequencies, normal emotions become harmful. Like it's normal to experience sadness, and our brains are built to process it. But I'm not sure our brains are able to cope with reading about (and seeing video of) industrial warfare, genocide, and serial killings all in the same afternoon. It's similar to how our physiological stress response remains constantly elevated in the modern world. Once adaptive, now harmful. We know that social media companies target normal emotions like fear of isolation and outrage because they are addictive. In our ancestral environment, those fears probably triggered from time to time and our minds could handle them. But can we stand having that button pushed all day every day?

>> Slides suck ass to communicate ideas,

Slides are not, and should not, be the primary medium for communicating information. They're a skeleton to hang together a presentation, set tone and context, and anchor your ideas. If they are information dense you need to be very, very careful; typically it's a sign of failure when they're too dense.

I love a good presentation, a well designed deck that compliments a presenter who knows their stuff and has (gasp!) practiced... I can't stand bad slide decks and have no tolerance for the lazy garbage that is the majority.
Thank you for your feedback. I hadn't considered pivoting to NSFW content; that wasn't my original intention. I will address the NSFW issue as soon as possible.

> When they see their parents glued to their phones and scrolling Instagram all day, after being told "Oh, don't do that, it's not good for you" they know their parents are full of shit.

Watching your parents turn into smartphone zombies should be a warning sign, maybe even something to rebel against.

Unfortunately children do tend to pick up their parents' behaviors, bad and good.
Interesting! Thank you for that. I don't plan to become an "employed" dev - just want to build my own projects :) Curious what part of the world that is? I know in Japan Rails is big.

In Australia, a "chick magnet" is a large attention seeking car owned by a young guy. It is intended to attract girls (chicks). It always has a serious stereo, and probably has a modified exhaust.

Young guys spend a fortune on their "chick magnet", presumably to indicate that they could spend a fortune on potential girlfriends. The desired outcome often fails to eventuate - many "chick magnets" are only driven up and down the main street occupied by the single owner and his single friends ;)
Indeed. I remember running Windows 95 on a 32MB machine and stayed on Windows 95 even after 98, 98SE, ME, 2000 were released simply because that's what worked well on the machines I had at the time. IRRC I had a P166MMX with 32MB of RAM from 1997 which remained my main machine for some years. Win95 only needed the correct drivers for the newer post-1995 hardware. I ended up skipping 98, 98SE, ME, 2000 and going straight to XP for my next upgrade at some point in the early 2000's as I had acquired a new machine which couldn't run Windows 95 without a whole lot of patches and Firefox eventually dropped support for Windows 95. By then the hardware I had was good enough that XP worked fine.
Claims V support, but in reality the CPU module is ClockworkPi Core R-01, which itself is based on Allwinner D1, which does NOT support V.

It supports an incompatible custom extension, based on the 0.7.1 draft of V extension.

Claiming V support here is both wrong and unethical. Avoid.

Most of the movie hacker moment is often people who want to setup and configure and maintain each component of an email server manually, compared to a reasonably compiled package to allow more administration of it.

If this package isn't someone's cup of tea, products like MDaemon continue to exist and crush it for self-hosting email using a windows server just fine for the past 15-20y.
We as a society need to stop associating happiness with good mental health.

Sadly contentment doesn't sound as good, but is a better measure of emotional state.
It happened to me, I called and talked for an hour and managed to get my money back. I finally got the person on the other side of the phone to agree to “discuss with my superior” after asking them to describe what the word theft means and explain me that adding a service without my request and charging me for a year did not fit in the description.

Then one day later I requested to move my phone number to a different company.

Then they called me back telling me they could permanently lower my bills, and made me even more angry :)

I’m still happy I never paid them another cent, but in the back of my mind I know the company I moved on is doing more or less the same tricks.
I feel like me and everyone I know exclusively use wireless but the Internet would have me believe I'm weird.

Primarily because you not only need to think about memory, but you also need to think about the general care and feeding of the GC as well (the behavior of which can be rather opaque). To each their own, but based on my own (fairly extensive) experience, I would not create a new DB project in a GCed runtime given the choice. That being said, I do think C# is a very nice language with a high performance runtime, has a wonderful ecosystem and is great choice for many / most projects.

Show HN: I made a movie details sharing app
Hello there! I would like to share the early version of an app that I have been working on for quite some time now, called Moviegist. The idea behind it was to create a platform similar to Genius and IMDb, where people can share details about movies they love, but with an added feature of being able to connect those details to specific moments in the movie.

The current functionality of the app includes creating new movies, connecting frames with actual details, images, and timestamps, as well as leaving comments. There is also a simple leaderboard and a profile section.

Please note that the app is still in its early stages of development, and there may be bugs. But, I would really appreciate any feedback or suggestions you may have. Thank you!
Good for them even if they did embezzle. If it was an exorbitant amount and for luxury, fuck that. But what they did was convert a space for modest housing on a small budget. Rather have my tax money go towards that than insanely overpriced gov contractor projects riddled with fraud, waste, and abuse

Raymond Chen mentioned that some programs peek into the internals of old dialogs (a sort of automation) and so they left a lot of old stuff intact to avoid breaking such programs.
The analysis I read listed various reasons why existing manufacturers wouldn’t adopt the technology (sorry, I can’t find the link). Increased cost per saw was one, but adopting the technology would also create two product lines: “safe” saws and “unsafe” saws. So any manufacturer who adopted the tech partially would have to argue that half of their product lines were unsafe. Even if the license costs were zero, these problems would exist.
Based literally only at the foundation of the building.
Thank you! My curious but busy/lazy ass wanted to know the answer but wasn't gonna do the legwork.
coroutines as a control flow construct within a thread are quite useful.
In theory yes? In practice I'd imagine all African folks in America would be called "Black" --- in the same sense that we're not at all careful about whether we call me "Irish" (which I half am) or "Slovak". But yeah: what you're trying to recognize with the capital is the distinct, uniquely American constructed ethnic identity, the ethnicity of the blues, of the Harlem Renaissance, of the AME church, of cornbread and grits (a great example, because you only get it by mixing African influences with Native American influences).
We don't have to tolerate assholes even if they're really, really good.

But uhhh... Lyude, Alyssa Rosenzweig, Xe Iaso, Gankra, Ariadne Conill, Sage Sharp... There are an absurd number of highly competent trans developers who have made profoundly significant contributions to the open source ecosystem and justly ascended to leadership positions because of it. Right-wing edgelords? Not so much. In fact without trans people you wouldn't have a computer to type your right-wing screeds on: Lynn Conway invented VLSI and Sophie Wilson co-developed the ARM architecture. So yes, ban the fascist edgelords. Nothing of value will be lost.

Hacker culture is queer, furry, neurodiverse. Deal with it.

It's the same in most computers. Wiping RAM is effort.

The feature here is that AmigaOS will try and reuse the ExecBase structure if found.

Such structure has a checksum, which is checked. If the check fails, a new one is made. This happens e.g. on power on, or after running games that are not system friendly (i.e. most games).

But if the check passes, this structure has important information, such as a list of memory regions, the "cold/cool/warm" vectors, which are function addresses that get called if non-zero at different points of the boot process (non-surprisingly a virus favorite), as well as and a list of reset-resident modules, which become allocated memory, thus protecting them.

A popular such device implements a reset-resident memory-backed block device, which the Amiga is able to boot from.

Considering it costs $900k for affordable housing, I'm not sure what the word wrong even means at this point. If democracy is good (the greatest?) and that's what it produces, I think we might have to start redefining the meanings of plenty of words...or should, anyways.

Oh well, I'm sure it will all work out fine as long as we think positive.
