Comparing some of the weird geometry effects in the doom video, like things sliding sideways when you move forward, I feel like it's reasonable to call this doom non-euclidean!
I have 3 LG dryers which support notification via app when a cycle is complete. I find this feature extremely helpful and am more than willing for LG to have my laundry data in exchange. 1 dryer is in my home where the laundry room is far enough away from the main living spaces that the audible notification can’t be heard. The other 2 dryers are located in the tack rooms of the 2 horse barns on our property. Washing of the saddle pads usually takes several loads and knowing when one load is done so the next can be immediately moved to the dryer is very helpful.

So, you are just building a huge pool of personally-identifiable data that you are holding onto for no commercial or business reason or benefit to the user?

You’re literally the reason the law was passed. Don’t do that. Like what happens when you get hacked or leave an Amazon bucket public and someone sells all your customers’ PII on the dark web?

A lot of HN’ers “”struggle”” with the concept that the law isn’t “confusing” or “bad” it’s that they themselves are taking actions that are socially harmful and laws have been passed to target this behavior. But it’s difficult to make a man understand something when his paycheck depends on not understanding it.

The axiom has been for businesses to hoover up as much data as possible, and that’s explicitly the mindset the EU wants you to stop. Being asked to at least catalog what you’re hoovering up is a tiny tiny ask, let alone the immense risks you’re running with other people’s identifiable data. Don’t create these targets for people to hack in the first place, especially when they self-admittedly serve no useful purpose even to your marketing.

You’re literally the guy getting mad the government is making him clean up his superfund site. Moving the drums is riskier than just letting them sit there forever… up until they inevitably rust out.

> Likely they are just filtering out all data produced in the EEA.

It's very subtle.

There's a difference between emotion-based coping where you try to fix some perceived problem and a more intrinsic drive that aspires to make a change. The difference lies mostly in what the primary source of energy is.

Negative stimuli is a nice way to bootstrap an effort but it's not as durable or the same as internal motivation. I've tried to make many changes on both types of fuel and the only thing that is suitably durable for very long term projects is intrinsic motivation.
My wife and I run a small (2 person) business in the EU. The largest hurdle was finding a hosting provider (VPS) that wouldn't transfer data outside the EU so we wouldn't have to add SCCs to our privacy policy. As a business owner, I'd say the balance is still positive, it forces some self-reflection on data gathering practices.

Not sure about the "hosted on US soil" part, if you are a US company, the data gets transfered anyway when you view it.

Thank you HN for showing me enough papers on "Gaussian Splating" that I was about to pick it out as the method visually from the examples.
90% of desktop users use an OS which supports DPI scaling and doesn't have this problem. The remaining 10% have intentionally chosen to buy a computer where ordinary peripherals like monitors or mice don't quite work right by design, and instead have to remain within an "ecosystem" of products primarily from the same vendor.

In other words - Macintosh's "retina standard" is the issue. Use a computer which is fit for purpose.
My point is that there is a difference between a Python function's returning false and the function's raising an error, and sometimes the difference really matters, so it would be regrettable if logic teachers actually did use ⊥ to mean false because programming-language theorists use it to mean something whose only reasonable translation in the domain of practical programming is to raise an error.

I have no idea what your point is.

Generally agree. I know of at least two protocols using protobuf payloads over raw UDP and seems pretty good that way (dnstap and some networking asic's in-band telemetry). My biggest gripe was protobuf v3 changing things like not including default values and not being able detect field presence which I found very annoying.

Show HN: OCaml scripting framework that scales to full-featured apps
I wanted a way to distribute small pieces of functionality (ie. scripts) to users. Functionality like:
- Downloading and configuring JDKs, Gradle and Android Studio so that users could use my software development kit.
- Launching a complex cross-compile in WSL2.
- Metaprogramming code-translation tools: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38748249

/Distribution problem/ I needed these scripts to be usable by junior engineers (devs who have had only one programming language course in high school) and work on the major desktops (Windows, macOS and marginally Linux). My initial solution was to distribute a set of POSIX scripts (MSYS2 on Windows). That was highly error-prone even with a good linter, and it was hard to troubleshoot problems (stack traces are really useful!). My second solution was to distribute CMake scripts and that worked for quite a while. The problem was the CMake scripts didn't scale well ... if one CMake script included another CMake script but a function's parameters changed, I'd get no signal until runtime that the software was broken.

/Hackable problem/ And over time, I realized I had a new requirement: my users should be able to edit and adapt the scripts to their own needs.

So, I created and have been using the "DkCoder" scripting framework for the past two months. It is an early alpha based on OCaml, and I haven't finished porting my CMake based scripts yet. But I surprised myself: I thoroughly enjoyed using DkCoder for scripts that I had no intention of distributing to users. This was a new use case I hadn't anticipated. In a week I was able to create a real production service (a webhook) that interacts with AWS SES, Stripe, GitLab and 1Password to manage subscriptions for my software kit. And much of that week was low-level REST plumbing because I wanted to simulate scripting for SaaS teams that didn't yet have their client libraries ready. That is one of three examples included with DkCoder.

I'd like feedback whether or not this scripting framework is something you could see yourself using.

Given that single-parents manage (sort-of), it seems logical that adding reliable free child-care into the mix shouldn't make things harder.

I do have a friend who was making little enough to qualify for SNAP that made it work. It was definitely tight for him for a while, but after a series of promotions he's making a lot more.

My wife is also a SAHM, but we are in a rather unique position (I make a lot of money and we fostered and adopted children with attachment issues). Now that the kids are old/emotionally stable enough she's looking at working again and the earnings would be less than 1/4 mine; with us already in a high tax-bracket the total added income is an even smaller amount. Still probably going to do it though because she wants to work, and no matter the budget adding even just a few thousand on the margins can make a big difference.
Obviously as it's the left-leaning New Yorker they will choose the least sympathetic examples.

I think the Trad Wife thing should be more about motherhood than what sort of a wife you are. People - women especially - should consciously weigh up the pros and cons of spending your life doing PowerPoints for some company that would replace you in a heartbeat if you dropped dead at your desk vs being more present in your children's life (or even having them in the first place).
Like shrink wrap in rhino?
Yeah except the electric ones that I've used kinda suck. I have an electric leaf blower from Ego and a gas backpack one. The electric one is awesome for blowing the grass off the driveway after mowing or other light tasks. OTOH I used it to manage the leaves in our quarter acre or so backyard last year, and it took me three charge cycles using two batteries each every time I tried to move the leaves. I ended up just raking both years. Last year I finally bought a backpack blower after trying one out with a friend on a much smaller property. It blows harder and has the endurance to actually finish the job.

It's a trend I notice in many articles about consumer behavior and trends, even in prestigious mainstream publications. When I dig just a little, the people mentioned are never "normal people." Either their considerable outside wealth is not mentioned, or they are selling something and in need of PR. The ridiculous recent article about "couples who use Slack" is a good example.

I haven't put any leaves out on my curb the last two years, but I still use my electric leaf blower. Early in the season, I use my mower to mulch some of the first leaves to fall into the lawn(which consists of grass, clover, violets, dandelions, etc). But eventually there are just too many leaves to mulch, and they would smother everything, so I blow them into big piles. Then we take the dogs out to play in the piles. Then we scoop them up with tarps and spread them all over my veggie garden beds. In fact I went and "stole" some leaves from the piles my neighbors put on the curb to get even more coverage of my gardens. Now in spring, the leaves have smothered a lot of weeds, and the ones that do grow are easier to pull because they have to push through the leaves and the dirt stays moist longer. I see a lot of insect life living in the leaves as I go about weeding. I hope the ecosystem is strong to balance out pests on my veggies.
You're just replying to yourself. This is sad.

Come to think of it, long enough has probably passed that I might enjoy replaying it.
I feel like this is another example of culture wars where people on one extreme using the people on the other extreme to justify their crazy extreme ways.

When most people are simply more balanced and feel that focusing on the family and having one spouse take care of the kids in a more traditional way is perfectly reasonable.

You can be a housewife and not be submissive, that’s totally rational and most people in America do that without demeaning the housewife in a balanced and rational way.

You can believe in women’s rights and equality and that women should be able to have a great career or education and succeed while still respecting people who crave and coexist in traditional relationships, and it’s okay if you don’t want to do that.

It’s dumb the way we’re like. My way of looking at the world is correct, because look at these crazy people.

Hopefully modern phones prioritize GPS or NTP derived time and timezone information over NITZ (which is how networks provide it). At least Android has the capability to do so, but it's ultimately up to device manufacturers, as far as I understand [1].

Medication isn't something they just hand out to anyone who asks. The reason it exists is because there is a large body of scientific research that all points to it helping treat disorders such as ADHD, whether you believe it or not. Meditation may also provide benefits, although there is less scientific evidence today that it does.
More important than speed is the perception of speed and how users react it. I usually don't notice things are slow until I see my wife using them. She has absolutely zero patience with tech, so if she taps/clicks something and it doesn't react in 0.3s, she's going to tap or click it again. I realized how slow my last smartphone was when she tried to used it and got extremely annoyed, then I couldn't unsee it anymore.

I am used to just waiting a few seconds even when there's no UI response at all, and don't get annoyed at slower stuff, unless it's something like an ssh session or a video-game, something where input is constantly causing output.

But to answer you: I think it really depends on which software and which hardware you're talking about. There's no general answer here.
I read perhaps the most compelling reason for men to not couple up with aspiring trad wives on 4chan, of all places. The crux of the argument was that women are, more-so than men, subjected to social pressures to conform, and since the trad wife is a societal niche, those women are disproportionately radical, perhaps even mentally ill. The true successor to the 1950s wife is your typical Uggs-wearing, Starbucks-drinking, 2-kids-having soccer mom who works as a nurse.
A lot of my bookmarks from 2015 onwards (the year I bought my last laptop) are 404'ing. I wish I had the foresight to bookmark Internet Archive pages instead. But I too switched to just Googling instead of referencing my bookmark list.

The UI of bookmarks needs to be updated so it's more than just a favicon and page title. Google shows previews of the page content in its links, so it's easier to know if the link is the page you're looking for.

There are bots on HackerNews, 3 kind of them:

- Comments bots (like on other threads), usually to promote a crypto-thing.

- Submissions bots to farm karma (likely one of them here).

- Upvotes bots (taboo).

Recent karma is necessary for upvoting other posts, as there is a system which makes you can't upvote if you didn't get upvoted yourself.

If you can upvote some posts on HackerNews (as it would be on Reddit) you can help people make a lot of money, but again, you need recent karma.
