Pollution caused by congestion and manufacturing cars kills everyone. By riding a bike people can put their money where their mouth is regarding views on climate change; you're making a statement that says "I'm putting the environment ahead of my personal safety". Also, if you convert enough people, motorcycle riding becomes safer for everyone. Getting bumped by another 150lb Vespa isn't as nasty as getting hit by a "green" 6000lb tesla truck.
I don't know, (technicshistory.com) kinda give it away immediately for me.
Nowadays you see them everywhere, but originally they were made popular with retirement communities (age restricted 55+) because the HOA is what is required to establish that restriction. Governments can't discriminate on age legally but an HOA gets an exception. In practice they often soft-discriminate in a plausibly deniable way on many other characteristics including SES, race, etc.

My parents are elderly and live in one. They have there share of stories, some of which are pretty bad. People have moved out solely due to conflicts. They kind of hate it actually. But I asked my dad if he agrees with all the enforcement and he said basically, well you don't want someone to paint their house purple. Which I think illustrates the preferences of people who seek these communities.
I read that comments were forbidden in json because some json generators/parsers started putting data about how to interpret them in comments, fracturing the standard.

Loading json as javascript also led to seemingly odd patterns, like putting an infinite loop before the start of a json payload to prevent injected javascript stealing data.

>To begin at the beginning is tricky. Did the empire begin when the emperor Constantine moved his capital from Rome to Constantinople in 324? When the city was consecrated by both pagan and Christian priests in May 330? Or did it begin in 395 when the two halves of the vast Roman empire were officially divided into East and West, or even later in the late 5th century when Rome was sacked, conquered and governed by the Goths, leaving Constantinople and the East as the sole heir of the empire?

The article explained this here. It is elusive, when the Romans stop being Roman and start being Byzantine is a line drawn in the sand.
Oh... ye that is a great idea. I'll need to try that some time if I ever do a user facing app.

What choice do they have? Their job is nearby, and long commutes are not so far off from a prison sentence. Literally hundreds of hours per year trapped in a tiny space that you can't leave.

Only so many houses/homes are for sale, and every time a critical mass of busybodies manifests, they can vote in a new HOA which is effectively immortal. They're simply easier to create than they are to uncreate. Until we get where we are today, and you may very well not have any non-HOA choices.
FWIW it placed me 10 miles away.

Right city, completely wrong part. Maybe that's where my ISP has their connection?
What I always enjoyed about Scully's character was her skeptical approach. She understood that the job of FBI agents is to build a case, to document, and be rigorous. She followed the evidence.
this I think is exactly the reason, I was going 3-4x times a week to the movies in the 90s, but once I had more pocket change and "spending" money, really started investing in quality home theater gear, and over the years it fulfills 90% of my movie watching needs. Reducing my "going to the movies" to twice a year, if at all.

there is also so much content available, that there is no real urgency to watch the movie at release. "Waiting" for it be available on bluray/streaming, is not even "waiting" at all.
I am not most people, but I keep a backup modem of a different brand which is properly configured.

Granted, I use it once a year because lightning toasts many of my appliances and I have to wait for the replacement from the ISP.

At least my ISP modems can disable OTA updates. A happy oversight on their part.

For a 4096x4096 matrix its symmetry group has size 4096!. The Stirling’s approximation gives ln(4096!)=4096ln(4096)-4096 which is about 10~11 bits per 4096 numbers. This is less than 0.003 bit per parameter saved.
The US is not a democracy. Not even at the state level. For many aspects and holons it is a representative republic.
The induced demand argument is sort of crazy. It is saying you shouldn't build something because if you do, it will be extremely popular and widely used. We shouldn't build libraries - if we do, people will want to check out books. Instead, let's penalize people who read books. That will destroy the demand for books. Problem solved.
I'm the only one wondering why that should be a (good) news?

I mean: are the user rewarded for the attention (the logic behind BAT) or it's just another search engine with another search ads ?

Mine is an honest question, not a complaining.
If someone speeds up when they see a car in another lane signalling that they are going to merge, in order to prevent that car from safely merging, when the merge would have been safe to perform had they not sped up to prevent it, they are definitely driving incorrectly.

Having a "right" to repair something doesn't really mean much if the vendors can legally keep documentation and spare parts from you, does it? The point is that this law does not give you any more rights on that matter, it only grants those rights to professionals.

Furthermore, "you can do what you want with it" is misleading if doing what you want with it (e.g. repairing it) will have unreasonable consequences such as unfairly void warranties and so on.

If you don't want cheap, shitty USB-C headphones... don't get them? I really don't get your point.

3.5mm to USB-C adapters are tiny and can include a much higher quality DAC than most phones reasonably will. Into those, you can then plug any headphone your heart or ears desire.

Audiophiles are such a niche market all things considered, and on top of that they seem to prefer their own DACs and/or headphone pre-amplifiers anyway – why waste space and money for a headphone jack that most users wouldn't use, and the ones that do would augment with external dongles anyway?

And for users that just don't want to deal with charging and pairing Bluetooth headphones, cheap headphones and adapters do just fine as well.
Felt this when I bought my first house and a week after the sale finalized, my situation changed dramatically and unexpectedly. I needed to move across the country, but the HOA had a strict No Renters clause.

So, I had to choose between 1) Spend 30 years paying the mortgage for a house no one can use. 2) Turn around and sell the house I just bought.
Super cool! But it seems to think that very small elevation changes are like mountains. The couple small hills in my local park don't cast a shadow haha.

Photoshop can do GIF editing per frame. At least, my old copy of CS2 could.

It just represents each frame as a single layer in the stack, and then combines them in order on export to GIF.

Nowhere near as nice as using an animation tool-style horizontal timeline, but it does work in a pinch.
The truth is that OA is a childish illusion that got “absorbed” by the adults in the room who tapped the kids on their back and said “no worries, we’ll take it from here”. Then they turned traditional publishing, which was already an elaborate expensive ruse, into OA which is an even more expensive (but less elaborate) ruse. Now everyone is happy, except someone trying to do actual research and having to read 1000 meaningless papers a day.
> The trend in UIs to use space and reduce interface actions to the most important actions is both aesthetically more pleasing and more functional.

Aesthetics is a matter of taste, of course, so there's no right or wrong there. Only if you like it or not.

But the trend towards minimalist UIs is something that actively gets in my way and makes the software more difficult for me to actually use. That's why I dislike it.

What they did is akin to saying Grandma can stay with me, but she's dying so I'm going to sell her wheelchair. Then I send her to stay with my sister and make them rent the wheelchair back, so other care can't be afforded and her health suffers and she dies.
Then you come along and say, "She was already dying".

Widening I-25 probably won't do any good (didn't do much good last time we did that), but we keep talking about light rail all the way as far north as Fort Collins, and nothing ever happens other than RTD making money earmarked for new light rail disappear into the aether.
Point #2 is false.

Brave partnered with a few crypto exchanges. The issue (which is on GitHub) was a bug in the URL auto suggestion feature of the chromium browser. Instead of suggesting the links, it was replacing them ONLY ON THOSE 2-3 CRYPTO WEBSITES.

The bug was fixed before it became news. It was fixed on day 1 of the report.
Ideally you would have to change how zoning and planning works to create denser more integrated neighborhoods that can be efficiently used with public transit.

If that's too difficult the next best compromise is a park-and-ride scheme. Put a couple stations with huge parking lots in strategic locations between suburbs, and offer good rail or subway connections to work places and shopping destinations. That doesn't enable anyone to get rid of their car, but it gives people a faster alternative to the most congested roads
Appropriate enforcement of regulation of short term rentals is key. This happens in the US as well.
I guess the accuracy really depends on your location or ISP.

I believe my ISP rarely or never rotates IP addresses, and on top of that I think my ISP provided router is assigned an IPv6 address and it prioritizes using it, because when I visit whatismyipaddress.com with JS disabled, it can only show my IPv6 address, but if I enable JS it can show an IPv4 address too (I assume through the WebRTC IP leak method, which requires JS)
Fossil energy is artificially cheap (the price its consumers pay does not even begin to pay for the negative externalities of producing and burning it -- and most of it goes into private hands that don't intend to use it for any kind of mitigation anyway).

This causes all kinds of problems, has all kinds of causes, and is generally a disaster all around, but at the very least we shouldn't deliberately make it worse by also artificially juicing demand in one of the main fossil-fuel-burning sectors of the economy (any more than we already are). Every petroleum-powered mile not traveled (and energy is to a certain extent fungible, so in principle this also applies to electric cars burning "free" solar energy) is a win for human civilization.

This isn't hippy-dippy environmentalism, just soulless Chicago economics: mispriced commodities do real damage to a political economy, and in the globalized era, there is effectively only one political economy anymore.
range and efficiency go hand in hand, so those numbers are really interesting, and not having to stop, at all, for 1300 miles is a win in my book.

Yep, being simply “anti-induced demand” is pro-human suffering.

I agree that there could be alternatives to widening highways that will make everyone better off but I rarely see all the tradeoffs being carefully considered.
> 1) It's extremely unlikely that you will actually hit a major issue because of scale or wrong software architecture which will bring your system down

that's definitely not the case. In a side project, usually bad architectural decisions are the ones that makes your programming effort more difficult. Refactoring is only a good reason (for side projects) if that will help you ship faster with better quality.
I suppose the commons issue depends on how you define the commons. HOAs often have communal areas like a pool. A communal pool with many owners no HOA would quickly become a disaster and probably form something like an HOA really fast.

An optional HOA would just be opted out of by the worst offenders. If the whole goal is to keep your neighbors from ruining your property value, the ones who do would just opt out. The guy with the car on blocks can just sell himself his own house to get out of it.

How is anything you get into willingly an infringement on your rights? Nobody ever had to buy a house that had to remain inside an HOA. They chose to and can choose not to.

That’s what I meant by the EV thing. You’re complaining about a choice other people made willingly. Why not just not make the choice and let others do it?
I know about certbot and have considered it, but our customers can use their own custom domain name, which means we need to be able to select the certificate depending on the SNI hostname, which is a bit tricky in nginx. It's possible to use the $ssl_server_name variable in the ssl_certificate and ssl_certificate_key directives, but then the certificate will be loaded for each TLS handshake. And also need to be careful with race conditions when refreshing the certificate, to ensure that the certificate and they key are matching. Overall, it's doable, and people do it, but it's not as straightforward as just using Caddy.
the politicians are in denial or are choosing short-term gains over the future the rest of us have to live in. we even have agreements to do something, but then don't. we're operating on copium and delusion right now and many parts of the US are facing climate change related disasters already, but it doesn't move the needle. i don't have any answers, but i don't think any particular disaster is going to change people's minds.
scary headlines with no real evidence.

To meet the DSM-5 criteria for post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) the person must have:

Been exposed to actual or threatened death, serious injury, or sexual violence.

With significant impairment in personal, family, social, occupational or other important areas of functioning.

In my long time experience:

Students may be suffering from stress or acute anxiety but not PTSD.
Crucially, the road network also operates at a loss
> If you do not want to be part of an HOA tell your real estate broker that this is one of the criteria for where you want to live.

Yes, tell your realtor "I don't want to look at any of the properties you have for sale, or any properties within the greater [insert city here] metro area, or for that matter any geographical location within 100 miles of here". He'd look at you less strangely, and might even chuckle instead of telling you to go fuck yourself and to not waste his time.

And the best part of all is that these two requests are essentially identical.
So from the observation "a Google USB-C device does not work properly on an Apple phone", you immediately arrive at "Apple must be out of spec"?

I'd also be really curious what's going on here, but you just seem to have an axe to grind. In my experience, Apple has been pretty ok at complying with standards (assuming they even implement a given one, anyway).

For example, I've had a USB-C Chromebook charger that would cycle on and off when connected to my Macbook, while several other USB-C chargers (including very particular ones like the Nintendo Switch one) were able to charge it without any problem. From my point of view, the one Google product I used was the outlier, but I wouldn't go as far as saying "Google's USB-C implementations are crap and a money grab".
The moral panic is real, and warranted.

> Does the telephone make men more active or more lazy?

Proven, the telephone (especially with integration of computer) has made men less active and more lazy. Obesity and media addiction skyrocketing. Cops called on kids playing outside.

> Does the telephone break up home life and the old practice of visiting friends?

Confirmed. When I was a kid, we just went to a friend's house to knock to see if they wanted to play. Nobody does that anymore, and so much spirit of adventure has been lost. Everyone is glued to their pocket phones.

> it would be so easy to talk that we’d never leave each other alone. [...] Thanks to the telephone, motor-car and such-like inventions, our neighbors have it in their power to turn our leisure into a series of interruptions

Also confirmed. Constant addiction-engineered notifications from social media apps. Everyone always chatting. People are losing the ability to walk up to strangers and strike up conversation.

> Wouldn’t it create Too Much Information?

Sure did. First we had phone books to find peoples' contact. Then we got search engines and shift through websites. Now there's so much garbage most services just let it rot, and we're looking to AI to organize it all (good luck).

> the telephone sped up life, demanding instant reactions

Happened. There's no time for things to play out and integrate it anymore. It happens, it spreads instantly to all corners of the earth, and people suffer without having any time to ponder the ramification. Mental contagion is a real phenomena.

> The use of the telephone gives little room for reflection

Confirmed. Everyone is glued to their screens, avoiding deep and difficult conversations. The screen instructs them how to think, what to say, and especially what to buy.

> It does not improve the temper, and it engenders a feverishness in the ordinary concerns of life which does not make for domestic happiness and comfort.

Yup. People get so angry and worked up about social media. In particular, old single women of tiktok are convincing younger women to divorce their husbands over nothing, leading to lifetime of loneliness and misery. Half of all western women are projected to be childless and alone forever. Most of them will regret it.

> Young ladies, some fretted, were at romantic risk.

Dating apps have decimated romance. Ladies stuck on promiscuous hypergamy, "dating" a tiny percentage of men. Romance is the prime motivator for men to work hard, so this has far-reaching repercussions.

> It changed people’s ideas of social trust [...] We could no longer read someone based on face-to-face social cues.

People don't even interact face-to-face anymore, and when they do, they are clueless to cues as texting has none.
It’s fun to guess what something is on HN just from the title before going there or the comments. In this case my guess was that someone was

- rendering Doom then using an LLM to get a text description of the scene

- asking the user what to do

- converting their text action into a couple seconds of doom input

- re-render and repeat until dead or stage clear.

I was wrong but still fun to think about!
But wrong is wrong one has to address the one way culture invasion.
It's surprising that the Watery nature of steam isn't mentioned in the article at all, as it is a terrible material on which to build any reliable consumer technology:

* Corrosive
* Heavy
* Does not lubricate
* Huge heat capacity, i.e. you get cooked if even a little bit of it gets on you)

About the only advantage it has is being cheap, available, and nontoxic which is cool for factories built on rivers
The other purpose of the ad is to keep the product top of mind. Those bubbles-and-ice ads aren't to introduce you to the concept but to remind you that you want one - now.
I think that is a touch strong. Though, I agree that largely nobody really factors in costs of scale, as absurd scale just isn't something that makes sense. This is true in physics as much as it is in economics. Things that work in one scale do not in another. Things that work in changing scale don't work in fixed scale.
Lucid's share price has collapsed ($55 in 2022, $2.86 today), and they have about 12 months of runway left.

https://www.fool.com/investing/2024/05/25/lucid-group-buy-se...

Like all companies, Lucid has limited access to media. Peter Rawlinson ought to use his media coverage carefully, highlighting Lucid's successes, rather than attacking competitors.

It's especially wasteful to make partisan political attacks on Elon Musk like all other sufferers of Musk Derangement Syndrome. Boring, predictable political tribalism won't make Lucid's press appearances stand out from the crowd.

Lucid needs to sell more than 6000 vehicles a year if it's going to survive. Rawlinson needs to focus on Lucid, not Elon Musk.
