chimera definitely goes for its own type of experience, the source of the core tools does not make that much of a difference in that (they were mostly chosen for other reasons anyway)

that said i was a freebsd user for over a decade so it must have left some mark (even though generally the systems have little to do with each other in their general design)
The way that people describe degenerate behaviour online baffles me.

They are humans just like you and I. They can choose, as you and I do, not to engage in this sort of nonsense.

To pretend that they are somehow some sort of different species and can't help themselves is abhorrent to me.
Yeah, may be an indicator in the tool that is mastered.
Why wouldn’t you just use it and fork it if there’s an issue? It’s largely just “finished” at this point. Not everything needs to be churned for years.
windowblinds is a window decoration customizer - LiteStep does nothing of the sort :)
LiteStep completely replaces explorer.exe as the shell host and you can then customize what functions you want to have in your UI. The windows themself would stay looking the same.
> positive drug culture

The same mafias setting up that drug supply chain for your dealer in the Netherlands are the same one who are attempting to assasinate the crown princess, prime minister, and justice minister [0] and have caused over 100 bombings and shootings in Rotterdam by mid-2023 alone in a city where stuff like this was almost unheard of 30 years ago [1]

> embraces party drugs and music culture.

Party drugs like XTC are smuggled as well, leading to a massive gang war in Israel in the 2000s [2], where most XTC in Europe is synthesized.

(Side note - most of the Israeli mafia are ethnic Moroccans just like their Dutch compatriots)

Oh my. Same here. I mined quite a few bitcoins on a friend’s PC a long time ago. Then we tried to do something with them but you couldn’t even buy a beer. So we forgot about the bitcoins and the disk is probably on a trash heap somewhere now.
Do I bill them for my time hourly, or as a cost plus project?
Hehe. Oh to go back to simpler free thinkin’ times
You also have to actually do it and not just say you're doing it. There's no point in jailing people for marijuana possession while parts of the government are selling cocaine to generate revenue.
While it is good to take this stuff seriously, there's also no reason to scare people. Having lived in an area where ticks are common, I remove them weekly, if not daily, from myself and the children. There's no reason to be scared and there's certainly no reason to wait for a professional.

There's a lot of advice in the Internet why these must be removed in a special way, with a special compound, or whatever. This advice has no scientific standing. Just remove it, with your nails or a pair of tweezers, and really make sure you remove all of it.

In an area where tick borne diseases exist, be on the lookout for symptoms. Do not try to self medicate or take prophylactic antibiotics unless specifically requested by a physician or you get a rash a few days after. After all, not many ticks carry them. You are likely to be absolutely fine. Living in an area where Lyme disease is common, I've had it a few times and it is treatable with antibiotics.

There are however other diseases that aren't as easy to treat. Encephalitis for example. If you think Lyme can be nasty, that one is downright bad. Take the vaccine where it exists.
And most mobile phone operators in the UK put back roaming charges as fast as they could after Brexit. So you know they were screwing everyone over.
Okay but really now, how am I supposed to pay for $250,000 a year to my software engineers in San Francisco with that kind of attitude?

Indeed, this happened with Symbian. An IPC server could panic the client. As an application developer without access to the OS source code this was pretty terrible. Not all preconditions were easily understood and could vary between devices and OS versions.
If only it was built using .NET and WinUI, chances are it would've not been so slow (though I did hear complaints about WinUI not prioritizing .NET enough...lots of C++-only mindshare there, and Windows teams have been decimated many times by all kinds of restructuring from what I heard anyways, not expecting much)

Also a fun one:

There are two cloud drive clients, one uses WinUI and is snappy using ~100MiB of RAM, another one is written with React Native and uses ~250MiB of RAM. Which one is written by Apple and which one by Microsoft?
I did a PD collection of Wilfred Owen’s poetry for Standard Ebooks if you’re interested in reading it: https://standardebooks.org/ebooks/wilfred-owen/poetry

Yes, Bun uses uWebSocket internally. I think OP was saying the perf gain comes from the combination of Bun + uWebSocket. For http, most of that is coming from uWS, which is pretty much best performing HTTP framework out there ime.

There is very little risk of anyone launching a major nuclear attack onto the US. The US would always be able to retaliate against such a strike. I would be more concerned about Trump doing something silly, either launching a nuclear strike or provoking a situation in which nuclear weapons might get used.
I wonder if there’s a new leak out there with actually recent passwords we just haven’t heard of yet. If Apple got their hands on it and confirmed a significant number of passwords were active then taking drastic measures is their only option.
All mail synced locally with local search is still best.
I see gross margin, where is the net margin?

No other business is subject to this scrutiny. A food service business increasing their prices based on labor cost is well documented in the different Big Mac prices across the country.

Who is out there telling McDonalds to keep their prices down because the gross margin on post mix soda is 98%?
No, still files called `.DOC` but with a different internal format.

There have been at least 3 successive MS Word file formats:

Word for DOS, WinWord 1/2/6/95: old .DOC format

(I think this also applies to Classic MacOS Word 1-5.)

Word 97, 2000, XP, 2003: new .DOC format

(Classic MacOS Word 98, X and 2001 were based on a port of the Windows codebase. Mac OS X Word 2004 and later are OS X-only, but are still based on the Windows codebase and use the same file formats.)

Bought a brand new MacBook last year and set up a fresh iCloud account to go with it. Problem was for the First and Last Name I entered some variant of Unknown User / Unknown Account (for privacy..) and chose a username “user.mailbox.unknown@icloud.com”. Everything was fine but 24 hours later, I could no longer sign into the account. It was saying my password was incorrect! I was 100% sure this password was right so wtf? In a panic, try to remove the account from my brand new device and can’t! You have to sign in normally to remove an account in settings. Obviously I called Apple support and a high quality American sounding woman took my call. She said my account appeared like it had been deleted, like when a user deletes their own account. She placed me on hold and found out what’s going on. Apparently “engineering” had my account DELETED. My only guess is they didn’t like my user name / mailbox name and suspected I was a fake person. Anyways the lady was able to get my account temporarily reinstated right there on the spot and I was able to login and delete that toxic account off my Mac. I made a new account and everything’s working fine. Needless to say I was very impressed with how they handled my situation, within 20 mins no less.
...and in that circumstance, the author reports finding, apparently serendipitously, that it helped with development: "Initially I was concerned that I’d made the kernel too aggressive, but in practice, this has meant that errors are caught very early in development. A fault is hard to miss, and literally cannot be ignored the way an error code might be."

What do you mean by "The attack surface of Vim is admittedly small" ? Recently I had to access a file owned by root. The IT gave me the permission to do sudo /bin/less /etc/the_file. That was enough to launch a shell with root permissions. If someone can send commands to Vim, he can launch any command and own your computer.
Just use Gemini, or Gopher. Gopher can be read with POSIX netcat+echo+less or gawk. Gemini, with Gawk and OpenSSL:

http://git.vgx.fr/gem.awk/

On chess, telnet/netcat to freechess.org 5000. Use awk+nc or gawk to change the replace the chess pieces into UTF8 if you care.

No JS, No ads, no nothing. A 486 can still play networked chess, lurk at HN or Reddit via gopher://hngopher.com and gopher://gopherddit.com, read news via gopher://magical.fish (and even translate things from English to French or Spanish) play Nethack/Slashem, emulate the GB, play MP2 and MOD files, use IRC, use chat services against bitlbee.org with an IRC client, telnet to SDF and do crazy things with Emacs (from reading novels to comment on Mastodon/IRC and even play IF with Malyon), also, coding in Elisp.

Also, when the Gopher->Gemini bridge gets ready, you will be able to browse UTF8 Gemini and web sites wth just Lynx and a dumb 386 with a relative modernish GNU/Linux, such as a minimal install of Delicate Linux. Add gemini://gemi.dev on top of that and even modern web will be at least article-(text) readable, such as Ars Technica, Wired and The Register.
And the bandwidth usage will be good for any user, too. No more data caps with tethered connections, gopher/gemini can be ridiculously small on bw.

With gemini://gemi.dev I could read news far away from a city, near train tunnels. The size of a web page was reduced from near a MB to few KBs.
No. As I admit in the comment, it’s too expensive. It’s similar to the Mac II, the first color Mac, which was also, for the time, inaccessible to most households. But, it often takes a few tries before a technology vision sticks.
Thank you, I think that was it! How did you find it? Googling or searching HN?

The carbon cycle is a massive over simplification of how the ecosystem works though. Nature isn't that simple and we are fooling ourselves thinking that we can boil it all down to one simple lever.

Beyond that, energy consumption just can't grow indefinitely without having a negative impact on carbon, if that's your primary concern. Not only would the entire energy infrastructure have to be carbon neutral, everything we use that energy for would have to be carbon neutral as well.

Let's say that is even possible, if all that matters is the carbon cycle are we totally fine with cutting down every forest on the planet as long as we find a different way to sequester carbon?

I'm well aware that scenario takes it to am extreme, but we have to play it out that far to see if the core principle is right. We need to use less energy and consume fewer resources, we can't get around that fact by moving around carbon in computer models and mathematical equations.

You can have two domains at two different registrars, each hosting the recovery mail address of the other.
This already exists via VPNs that allegedly give you better routing/peering to the game servers.

No idea if they work. I can see conceptually why they might (internet routing is often more of an approximation of a best route than the actual best route), but the problems seem too individualized for a generic VPN to help. Happy to be wrong if someone knows how well/why they work.

Wife got locked out yesterday.

Got a message on her phone (settings notification). She had to change her password through the settings app.

Called Apple just to check and they said they weren’t seeing any weird activity. That they did see the password was changed, but no weird login or attempted logins.

So, in my sample of 1, that wasn’t the case.

Not, strictly speaking, on the topic that you were talking about but the display server has been broken up somewhat and compositors don't implement all of it. Compositors generally can't do some core functions that the XServer did - so we end up with the compositor acting as the part of the display server that managed ... compositing, funnily enough and display. But we also seem to need other servers like Pipewire's runtime to abstract Wayland clients as shareable objects.
Absolutely normal in areas where they are common. You learn to pick them quickly after a while.

If you have animals such as dogs and cats it's much more than that.
I live in a densely populated city. The wifi spectrum is already horrendously congested. The last thing I want is my modem polluting the airwaves, degrading my service from inside my home, all for Comcast's profit.
The only thing that will work is if you get rid of the reasons why hoards of people do drugs in the first place.

That is likely incredibly complex - beyond the ability of any government (many of which actively contribute to the destruction of society and increased drug/suicide rates) - and very expensive.

I doubt getting rid of the discounts would ultimately help. Price discrimination and the psychological allure of a discount are powerful tools.

When I worked in Singapore, the whole office had an Uber Eats account and every day we could order lunch from anywhere with no consideration of any fees. There are plenty of price insensitive users like that who make it worth while to keep your base fees high.

And I also know plenty of people who compulsively order things whenever there's a promotion, but would rather starve than pay "full price".
I'll preface this by saying that this is not a defence of Apple's SSO issues as outlined in this article; but I think I can bring some quantifiable points to this discussion.

Anecdotally, after over a decade of professional computer use:

- No laptop as light as an MBP that I've been exposed to comes close to the weight-to-stiffness ratio of that case

- No laptop out there has a trackpad that feels anywhere close to the MBP, that I've seen. It's a combination of palm rejection, latency, fineness of controls, and correct handling of multi-fingered gestures, with the actual glass of the trackpad being nice too.

- Most other laptops out there don't ship with as good a display. Granted, the MBP displays aren't P3 calibrated or anything, but the colour reproduction is great, and the HiDPI clarity is excellent. Font rendering in particular is outstanding.

That's just to name a few headline features. Is it possible to buy/build a laptop with those similar qualities? Hard to say. Trackpad drivers in particular tend to be tricky, and Windows precision drivers are the closest I've seen to Apple's trackpad feel, but those will typically fall apart on material feel.

I doubt that you'd be able to make or buy a daily driver that feels as good while spending a reasonable amount of money, and you'd likely spend a good amount of time sourcing parts.

I've had the opportunity to use three other laptop types during my career: two reasonably recent (at the time I had them) Lenovo Thinkpads, a Framework (briefly), and a recentish Dell Latitude.

The Thinkpads stand out, but fall short on the display and trackpad points; otherwise they had a reasonably rigid keyboard compared to the MBP. The Framework was fine, honestly. The modularity is excellent, but the deck flex on the first-gen model was way more than I'm used to, and the display colours were deeply meh. The Latitude was bulky, but I mitigated that and other issues by just running it closed-lid and plugging it into a display, mouse, and keyboard.
Slightly tangential but I'd sometimes wish for a 3rd party option for such accounts. You can have a gmail, an icloud mail or your own email domain as email is a (well?) defined standard. Why can't I do the same with my iPhone? Back up my device to my own NAS instead of iCloud. Having such a standard would force accountability - not that I consider Apple's security poor, but rather that it could be better.
Hey, for me the generation takes too long I've been generating my page for about 1-2 minutes and still no results

Maybe I could have phrased that differently, I said "we" there thinking about all of us individually running into situations where we make choices that go in the face of bigger concerns we otherwise feel.

In this case, I'm torn on the idea of us needing companied to take shots like Vision Pro when I also personally think we as a society need to be consuming less and using fewer natural resources overall. I see others run into the same thing when someone, for a very specific individual example, uses petroleum based products to glue their hands to a street in protest of climate change.

I do not understand how you could say "I don’t think any mature, temperate, and healthy human being desires to use or abuse drugs, and even if they have a genetic predisposition to abuse" followed by "Having some chamomile tea or a cup of coffee or a beer is fine in moderation."

Caffeine - and especially alcohol - are absolutely addictive drugs. Alcohol especially has many negative effects on society, and is in a similar class as GHB, benzodiazepines and even opiates. Drinking alcohol IS using drugs, even if society has accepted this drug. Coffee is a stimulant, just like Adderall (i.e. speed) and meth.

Weed is another pervasive drug that's used by many mature, temperate and healthy humans. And frankly, I would argue the same of psychedelics and MDMA. I don't know how you could even argue otherwise besides "no true Scottsman."
Or it might just be price discrimination. The people who are just mindlessly ordering are probably not that price sensitive, so you can charge them higher, whereas the deal hunters that would actively seek out and stock up on 20% off gift cards likely weren't going to pay the inflated asking price to begin with.

It is silly to think that question is one that can be investigated by scientific inquiry. The only thing that study (which you haven't linked to) reveals are the opinions of those who funded it.
This definition of drug abuse as thrill seeking or corruption of facilities is overly broad as it would cover a lot of normal behaviours.

Drug abuse can be identified with drug addiction. If you get blind drunk once on your stag night, that’s not abuse, if you do that every night salaryman-style then that’s a problem.
Are those apps profitable though?

US apps like this were cheaper for awhile too while they were still lighting investor money on fire in order to gain customers quickly. I think DoorDash is out of this mode now, and there may be less investor growth money being poured in in the US at this point since it’s no longer early days and the market there has matured.
Well there’s so much customer churn in part because many aren’t willing to pay for the actual cost of the service. Food delivery does work in some cases—Dominos or the Chinese place in a probably urban location.

But it seems tough in general. Personal services even by fairly low-paid workers are pretty much luxuries in much of the West.
Yup, have read that useless advice a lot. Did you read that I did 4 hard resets of all HomeKit devices? Of course multiple reboots too

Even if that were the cause of many issues, it seems like a really simple fix to adjust the selection algorithm. So why haven't Apple done it?

> I don't know what the app/driver split is, but in developing countries, the total fees are typically $1-2 for food delivery on Grab, Food Panda, Gojek, etc.

But how much are the drivers making? If labor is dirt cheap there it's not surprising at all that they can offer delivery for $1-$2. I find it strange how you went from "developing countries, the total fees are typically $1-2 for food delivery" to "there's no reason they need anywhere close to what they're charging in the US and similar countries" without at least doing a cursory analysis of the labor costs.
