I was on some great LAN parties.
Nice memories.

Four years ago I attended a LAN party where I was the youngest one (26 back then).
All others already had kids but swore to keep the old spirit alive.
Never have I seen such a well organised party with actually working games :D.
They used the "eti-launcher"
Isn't Elm the name of an email program that runs in a UNIX enviornment? Similar to Pine?
Nothing special about casts and type checks. It’s just a simpleish workaround for when nominal typing is more useful
The 'News' bit of this site's name connotes that a majority of articles cover current events. When historical information is presented, the best practice is to cite the year parenthetically in the post's title. If this practice were followed more consistently, people less interested in purely historical content could skip over it more easily. HN could even grab the 'last updated' metadata from the linked page programmatically.
There is so much content supporting this thesis with a 5 second google search.

As I have mentioned above and in other replies. Meta platforms has quietly introduced a filter for certain political topics that was pushed to their user base with no notification.

Since IBM loves the Linux Foundation it's not impossible that Terraform and OpenTofu will merge like GCC and EGCS back in the day.
The geothermal heat pump is different from what they’re talking about but it is for real.

About 10 years ago the word was that the climate in Upstate NY was too cold for an air source heat pump but the air source heat pump was a great choice a little bit south. Recently air source heat pumps have improved and are recommended for New York and even Alaska.

Not practical given a large amount of documents.

Sure! I was just replying to this:

> the danger of passing anything derived from user input into the TEMPLATE side of a templating engine. Why in the world would you ever do that?!?
I wonder how this will work with Red Hat. Traditionally, Red Hat and HashiCorp competed more directly than other IBM portfolio products, fighting over the same customer dollars.
...but doesn't this just seem completely delusional?

They were unable to stop drug cartels. And drug cartels need a highly centralized and sophisticated organization, and need to ship a physical product across a border.
As a TypeScript beginner, I was bitten by this. Typing in TypeScript feels quite bad for some reason; a lot of effort for effects which are still potentially wrong at runtime. I didn’t struggle so much in Python, Rust or C#, for example. Python is surprisingly… sound? in comparison. It can do nominal as well as structural typing.

Technically, Sir Tim Berners Lee invented the first web browser. Perhaps the first commercially viable web browser is more apt for Andreesen.

I certainly loved Netscape 3 back in the day.
Completely agree on performances... I've had a renewed appreciation for a lot of music after seeing it performed live (even on video), and/or hearing live album versions.
I remember showing up at my first LAN party, ~20 years younger than my online friends. They just couldn’t believe I was actually 13. They were really nice. One woman had a son my age that I went to a music festival with when I was 20. Another got me my first job as a programmer.

Somehow I just don’t see that kind of stuff happening nowadays; sending your kid off to some unknown destination with his PC to sleep in a gym hall with some strangers from “The Internet”. Either the world was smaller and simpler back then, or my parents were crazy, or both.
Uh, Google was kicked out of China for not censoring search results, Meta and others are blocked for not submitting to censorship. This is tame by comparison.
They just separated out Servers in Endpoint Central, where servers now require a different license. My use of the product will not change, the price of renewal goes up 12%. I'm paying more this year for the same thing. Strategic pricing indeed, lock'em in and crank'em up.

Also, Redhat and CentOS are 'servers' under this new licensing, but Ubuntu is not a server.

I've found Endpoint Central to be rather buggy, and not really improving over time, they just keep introducing new bugs.

Endpoint Central, now with arbitrary pricing.
I'm listening to some Amapiano now... and loving it.

Care to share some of the other genres you've tried before this one?
Barring a time machine, we've very little way to know when it comes to one specific incident. Again, people distracted by their cell phones kill people on a very regular basis in vehicles without autopilot.

If we had better aggregate stats we could compute the statistical likelihood of it, but this stuff isn't tracked anywhere near as closely or completely as, say, aircraft accidents. I don't trust Tesla's self-reported cherry-picked stats.
Design doesn’t cover all use cases. There’s nothing weird about wanting different types for “user id” and “organisation id” so that you don’t use the wrong argument by mistake
I don't think you're completely alone, but you're probably statistically insignificant (don't worry, I'm right there with you).

Like you, I can't stand the music I grew up with all that much (maybe a few songs here and there), but I went through the trance/electronic fixation in the 2000s. Now it's almost anything that I enjoy, which probably doesn't say much, but I'm presently listening to some chillstep and was listening to metal covers of the sea shanties "Santiana" and "Roll the Old Chariot Along." A few weeks ago, I was listening to Norse-inspired works by Einar Selvik.

I can't imagine we're that statistically significant or if streaming may have some impact on availability and interest. I'm unwilling to believe it's a personality trait, for instance. (For another data point, I was born in the early 80s.)

From what I understand, Google, YouTube, the web site that used to be called Twitter, Instagram, WhatsApp, and Facebook are all banned in China already.

So I suspect the state department would say something like, "the state department recommends banning TikTok."
That article is extremely biased.

Basically it's accusing Meta of should have knowing that their algorithm and their user generated stickers was spreading this content.

Yes in an ideal world they should catch any campaign of this sort, but global moderation is difficult and they offer no proof that Meta knew about this.

It's disingenuous to say that Meta agitated this event. Those specific users of Meta agitated it and Meta did not catch it.
...but even if Bytedance turns their nose up at this (which they won't, because they want to be in good imperial standing), why would users care?

They'll take 20 seconds to install one app to route around the ban, and then forget about it.
Read my comment again. If you're listening to a playlist, you're not mindfully choosing each song. There's nothing wrong with playlists, but my point was to describe how listening to music from Spotify's playlists often isn't a mindful experience (excluding when your attention is grabbed the occasional standout track).

A GOOD playlist can keep your attention, and those are often handcrafted by other users. Just look at some of the other responses in this thread. Plenty of people have the same experience.

I also said that music from playlists is often (not always) groovy background noise - This isn't a mindful experience - And that's okay.
I think this fundamentally misunderstands how to use LLMs. Out of the box, an LLM is not an application - it’s only the building blocks of one. An application could be built that answered this question with 100% accuracy - but it would not solely rely on what’s in the training data. The training data makes it “intelligent” but is not useful for accurate recall in this way. Trying to fix this problem is not really the point - this shortcoming is well known and we have already found great solutions to it.
Also in a city and own a petrol car I don't drive much.

I have recently bought an e bike and they are great fun and pretty good for getting around. Fun facts.

- Lower CO2 emissions per mile than any other transport apparently including walking and pedal cycling - humans eating food to cycle emit more it seems. Not that it's necessarily more environmentally friendly as you have batteries to deal with but even so it's good.

- Probably the fastest way of getting around central London. On google maps bikes usually beat cars and tube and ebikes tend to go faster than regular ones.

I'm not sure how long it will last before been stolen but it cost me about the same as two tanks of gas for the car (second hand).
i'm not responding to those comments because you clearly aren't informed about the definition of socialism, particularly the nuances and the debates that leftists have about this definition all of the time. nor do you understand what a cooperative is. it's not worth my time to go tit for tat in a debate if we're not operating on the same knowledge, and you're not willing to learn.

you are just somebody who argues on the internet, a natural contrarian who thinks they are right about everything, while being totally wrong. i call it the hacker news contrarian effect. it's quite amazing to witness. good day, sir.
I bet they'll organize it under Red Hat, and Red Hat will apply their open source policy to it, and that will involve reverting to OSI approved licenses
It is, but it's not worth the massive sums some executives pay themselves.
That’s scmp for you.
Man, I bought some stock a bit after IPO, it dropped a bunch, and I idiotically sold later at a slight loss in 2013 after people all around me constantly went on about how they would never make money. It's now worth 17 times what I sold at.

I also remember around Google's IPO people questioning how they'd ever make money.
The only goal of software is automation. If a given software doesn’t replace human labor, or even a human job, what is its actual value in financial terms? The answer is always negative because software is a cost center that requires time to write, maintain, and document.

AI costs a lot to develop and maintain. That means AI is not financially viable unless a lot of humans are replaced. The ethics then aren’t whether AI should replace humans, as it absolutely must, but whether or not the quality of output qualifies the loss of human participation. That will not be immediately apparent until quality is lost and unrecoverable.
Overpriced, haha.
Thank you so much! Love this feedback. May I ask for an example of the type of dashboard you have in mind?
I feel stupid even responding to this. I'll take your comment on the assumption of good faith.

If the vehicles can generate revenue people will buy them looking to make money for themselves. Tesla makes money on the sale and the recurring ride hailing revenue. If 1% of consumer vehicles sold are autonomous robo-taxis that alone makes a significant bump in Tesla's bottom line.

Just did a quick search for ride sharing TAM ~100 billion. If Tesla can capture some of that at high margin (bc no driver). It's a lot of money.

I loved lan parties. Putting all my heavy gear in my cheap old little car. Big ass 19 inch crt and a big tower full of useless buttons and knobs. Spend the entire day and evening setting everything up. Of course everything broke to the point windows had to be reinstalled. Driver issues, network issues, hardware issues. But then finally at 1am we started playing serious sam, unreal tournament, dune 2000, 1nsane, moha, quake 2 or 3, team fortress 1 and many more. Good old times.

This kind of mistake is quite easy to make, especially when somebody writes a function that takes several IDs as arguments next to each other. I've seen it happen a number of times over the years

Don't do that. You will regret it.

> they also have to remove the addiction algorithm

Whoever they sell it to, if they end up doing that, is going to be more than willing to put in place their own addiction algorithm, in just the same way that American social media and other adjacent tech companies have implemented them.

I'm in no way a fan or user of TikTok, but thinking this will improve the app seems naive.
I’ve using classic shell since W10 came out because i found its start menu unbearable, that way it works more or less like W7, also clover is a great tool that gives you tabs in the windows explorer.
Not weird, have family in Iowa. My car gets about 500 miles per tank on I80 East. When I stop to get gas, it takes me about 5 minutes, maybe 10 if I stop inside and grab a drink or a snack. Can an EV in 2024 with even the best most advanced charging station charge my battery in 3 minutes from say, 10 miles left on the battery to 500? Is there an EV with a range of 500 miles?
> Does the legislation in fact specifically require sale to a US buyer, rather than a non-China buyer? Like EU buyer wouldn't fly?

No, you are correct. Thank you. It must simply be no longer controlled by a foreign adversary [1]. (And yes, the term foreign adversary is defined in law [2].)

An EU, Gulf or Indian buyer would be totally fine if done in good faith, i.e. without being a front for Chinese interests.

I didn't know IBM still had money to throw around like that. What do they even do these days? Who are their customers?
I’m torn between not prying, and wondering how you get a family to $120/m, when you can get a basic personal Google account (which comes with access to all of the usual apps) for free?
I'm guessing a big chunk of those losses are from selling the hardware at a loss, which is a fine strategy if you're Sony or Microsoft and can easily make that money back from game licensing and subscriptions, but the Quest has (a) a reputation for people buying one and then barely using it, and (b) a subset of active users who only use it to play SteamVR games without ever giving Meta a cent after the initial purchase.

I don't know exactly how much they're losing on each Quest they sell, but the fact that it's significantly cheaper than any "dumb" headset that requires a PC or PS5 to do all of the heavy lifting, despite having what's effectively an entire smartphone built-in says it all really.
But would a new US-Tiktok not try to expand globally? Original-China-TikTok would then compete with US-Tiktok in Europe and elsewhere.

The problem with the TikTok ban is that it is now, as a US citizen, it is exceptionally more difficult to consume content that is not filtered by US hegemony. The Israel/Palestine conflict was an eye opener because on every other platform, pro-palestine content is actively suppressed.

It's also strange that Americans are uniquely afforded this privilege and many consider it a natural right, but don't consider that their relationship with TikTok is same relationship the rest of world has with Meta. French citizens, despite the GDPR, have no recourse for accountability when it comes the US government.
I remember when there was a lan party aboard the USS Hornet aircraft carrier in the SF Bay Area.

I think that would be the pinnacle.
No, I think bobdvb has a point, and mostly where I think I'm going with this is that abusers should just be shut down. In the context of FOSS, I think that means some combination of a) don't tolerate their attacks and b) shut them out. Whatever that might look like, basically it just deprives them of using your project as a platform to satisfy their perverse interests in making someone feel miserable.

So, I'd rather not frame it as "abuse the abusers," because I think that risks escalating the situation.

Five years ago I may have agreed with you, but a lot has changed in my life to recognize that it's just not worth the time trying to engage someone who enjoys being mean.
Prog is making a bit of a comeback. Black Midi brought it back to the limelight for critics I think and the london scene is kind of all in on the sound.
I disagree. If we had a runtime we'd have to inject that all over the place and compatibility with javascript wouldn't be a given.
>and if they feel that is in their national interest, why can’t we return the favor when we feel it’s in our interest?

By the looks of it, it seems like you want the US to be more like the CCP than the other way around. Imitating authoritarian governments harms America's global reputation for "freedom and democracy", if that reputation even still exists.
It diminishes the story that Databricks is the default route to privately trained models on your own data. Databricks jumped on the LLM bandwagon really quickly to good effect. Now every enterprise must at least consider Snowflake, and especially their existing clients who need to defend decisions to board members.

It also means they build large scale rails necessary to use Snowflake for training and can market such at every release.
Recently, my friends and I recreated our old LAN parties. Went up to a cabin in the woods, brought some cheap network switches, and had everyone install OpenRA (https://www.openra.net/, open red alert), and had a blast, even with everyone on laptops (mac/win). You can still do this in 2024 and it's worth it!
In what sense did they side with OpenTofu?
Genuinely curious.
it's very obviously "creative" accounting. Facebook is throwing lots of other expenses into the VR bucket to make other departments look better.
The heck? My earliest memories before I was walking I couldn't see far away. I was born nearsighted and with a lazy eye that caused me to see double. There wasn't anything anyone could do to prevent this. This article is bringing up a whole lot of data but it's not passing the scrutability test. It almost sounds like it wants to blame people for having nearsightedness.

Man you are just pushing one bad faith argument after another in this thread aren't you?

If the product wasn't something that people truly loved, would the callers have had that level of commitment to follow through?

Seeing the lack of political action in this country, I'd presume the answer to be NO.
> So far I've, for example, found my banking app running something called a telemetry service, in the background, even if I set its battery profile to restricted. No way to stop that other than to uninstall the app.

Lambda: The Ultimate Goto (1977) [pdf]
It is maddening to see people who usually are pretty serious and mature turn into zombies parroting whatever political propaganda the state decides to push out this year.

Some key facts:

1. Tiktok isn’t allowed to sell because their AI models and algorithms are trained on Chinese citizenry data. These items have been marked as non-exports for some time now, and this is a well known fact by the people pushing for the bill.

2. The bill was only passed since it was shafted into a bundle of other more urgent bills that have to pass.

3. Not all American media companies are banned in China. Some refuse to comply with local laws and pulled out. For example, Apple and Microsoft complied. However the competition in China is immense and not every business can survive the capitalistic competition.

4. While there were talks about the ban, it was not until the overwhelming amount of Pro Palestinian content that led to the heavy push for the ban.

5. The US is a relatively tiny market for tiktok, so tiktok is likely to just pull out.

What I think:

1. The date set for the sale is highly political, and IMO its meant to weaponise Gen Z against the democrats.

2. Pro Palestinian content is highly searchable on tiktok, and that made a lot of people unhappy and uncomfortable.
I been hearing this term 'enshitified' a lot lately. I am curious to its source and why it seems so much more prevalent recently. Do you have any insight into that?
A few corporations still have a separate department dedicated entirely to generating things like PowerPoints. McKinsey for example. The consultants are good at creating PowerPoints if they need to, but they can just outline it or flesh it out as much as they like and toss it over the fence to the "PowerPoint department" which will complete it overnight based on the instructions/outline/information/draft sent in by the requesting consultant.
