I know this is controversial, but I was in his EXACT spot and I did something else that many of us at some point in our lives ended up doing - I wrote my own CMS. But, I wrote mine for the last 10 years. I iterated it with various different languages, frameworks and eventually settled for a Phoenix/Elixir based backend that is locally / cloud hostable, with a more or less similar UI to Wordpress. I actually wrote a lengthy article about it if you are interested to follow on its updates: https://medium.com/@ideatocode/what-i-learned-as-an-artist-w...

The thing that keeps people hooked with Wordpress is actually the UI. For most people, it is stupidly simple to use after they play around with it for a couple of days.

In Singapore, I met this florist who was running her entire business based off of a shared hosting hosted Wordpress that wasn't updated in years. I asked her what kept her on the platform still as it was slow af and she said "it just works". She got hacked a couple of times, but no biggie, she was also back on track after just a support ticket to her hosting provider. That is the power of Wordpress from a user's POV.

Thanks to Wordpress, almost my entire career was built on top of it, just detesting it (unknowingly).
The term "fake news" is so broad and fraught with ideological positioning, linguistic overreach, and self-righteous, naïve realism that it really ought to be banned. It does not do what it seemingly intends to do, which is to make people more critical of what they read and share; it does the opposite, just labeling sources as bad or good, which is as close to propaganda as it gets.

A more nuanced classification than the "fake news/good news" binary is sorely needed.
Aurora has essentially constant replica lag times, it’s one of the best features. Should be around 30-50ms always, are you seeing different?
k is widely used by a handful of big investment banks and big hedge funds for quant/finance stuff. There are only a handful of such companies in the world but they are extremely price insensitive, especially with regard to technology that lets them get a market edge. I suspect this is the dynamic that kx, the company, tapped into over the years. I also suspect this open source release is mainly because investment banks have come around on their desire for open source (rather than proprietary) software over the years, at least on some teams. You can see the open source release doc explicitly positions k vs Python, pandas, and polars.

For example, I have an old friend from a major investment bank who used to work on an internal (proprietary) pub/sub system but who, these days, works on integrations between that system and Apache Kafka.
They said that websites would stop operating in Europe if GDPR got through and guess what, instead they built privacy teams to be compliant and applied the stricter privacy rules more globally. It's all empty threats.
200 KM means there is room for improvement. If you reach out to support and provide a correction, that will be quite helpful. If you mention that you came from HN, I can report back on why we had such a deviation.
When you’ve been unhealthy and struggling to maintain a healthy body for years in a society that indexes way way way to heavily on carbs because they’re cheap and equally isn’t honest about the toxicity of glucose, you can kinda see why people get so enthusiastic about it. Sure it can be annoying but there are problems on both sides and people that say sugar is fine eat it at will are starting to come off as maliciously delusional to me of late.

Insulin resistance is a quality of the cells in your body which cease responding to insulin at their receptors. So higher levels of insulin fail to reduce blood sugar levels. This is the hallmark of T2D.

You are confusing this with beta cell function, which also becomes impaired in many T2D people, where the islet cells become damaged, insulin production is subsequently impaired as well, this is a later stage effect in T2D progression.

T2D likely manifests from prolonged energy surplus leading to oxidative damage to cells and accumulation of excess fat stores, particularly visceral fat stores in the organs - the cell damage and overfull visceral and sometimes subcutaneous fat stores both lead to hormonal and epigenetic changes and directly to insulin resistance.

That's still oversimplified, but it's a useful model.
Reminds me of the day after 9/11. I was working at a small company located a few hours drive from NYC that was a subsidiary of a much larger company headquartered further west.

For whatever reason, an employee in one of the lead administrative groups at 'HQ' was forwarding very high resolution photos of the previous day's events and the group email address they were using happened to include everyone in any organization that was in some way under the management chain, so anywhere from 10,000 to 20,000 people likely received those pictures. They sent about three emails before stopping, or being stopped.

For better or worse, the people suffering from RSD have moved to Facebook.

That’s bad but not an interpretation one should jump to in a context where it was very easy to get things wrong and rather little incentive to lie.

You think CDC et al didn’t know they had limited public credibility with which they could guide public behavior? These people live and breathe questions of institutional credibility all day every day. They obviously know their careers are put at risk even by being wrong never mind by lying.

> But it’s clearly not what people want. Ask any person if a search for a hex encoded ID should be a fuzzy match for a different ID and the answer will be no.

in a search field explicitly for hex encoded IDs it shouldn't be

In a generic web search that has to guess if my term was a hex encoded id ('cafe' is but almost certainly isn't intended as one..).. it's less obvious.

in the case of a clear hex encoded id of sufficient length, i would like to know there are zero exact results, but as long as it's still fast I would love some fuzzy matches after in case there was a typo in my term or in the indexed document.

What's the argument for file sharing ruining music? I would think more the opposite, that it improved distribution and discovery for lesser-known artists, and so helped diversify music.

One of the earliest mentions of it was on fake news sites owned by Guo Wengui claiming it had child porn on it, presumably because they'd planted some on it - the suppression was so effective that the people claiming it's real don't remember this either.

IIRC the articles had very poor ideas of what Americans would find scandalous because they spent much of their time talking about how big Hunter Biden's penis was.
I was going to call this out as something I super loved.

> The first repo archives the page as-is with a cronjob. The second repo turns the first repo into cleaned-up Markdown with an English translation with another cronjob. The third repo turns the cleaned-up Markdown into a Hugo website with a third cronjob.

This is a super awesome pattern, imo.

You all never have two systems try to make commits onto the same head, no clashing. If one process goes bad, you don't have to meddle with interweaved history, your source history is pure. It also makes the event sourcing easy; when a repo changes the next process starts, where-as you have to start filtering down your edge triggering if you conflate concerns together. In this case the author is using cron jobs, but this would be a viable medium-throughput modest-latency event-source system with little change!

This to me is much simpler. There's little appealing to me about conflating streams. Having the history show up as a continuous record within a repo could be seen as an advantage, but even still I'd rather make a fourth repo that merges the streams after the fact.

Simplicity is in the eye of beholder. Not conflating different concerns feels to me much simpler.
I’m devastated by this. Being able to quickly capture todos and shopping list items, and then have them sync through Todoist, is one of the two or three reasons I’m still in the Alexa ecosystem. I suppose they’re in a “monetize or die” phase and the users are losing because of it.
Again, on a practical level - what’s easier to over consume? Carbs and sugars or fats?
The AT&T breakup is a little more complicated.

Long distance prices actually dropped tremendously under AT&T especially when you include inflation. Night/Weekend 3.10$ per minute (35.23$ inflation adjusted) in 1955 down to 0.87$ (3.50$ inflation adjusted) in 1980. They benefited from that 90% price drop in 25 years as people would make more and longer calls at lower rates. https://www.scribd.com/document/422152895/FCC-Report-1950-19...

People often show price drops after the breakup, but AT&T started installing fiber in 1977 so those price drops are mostly a continuation of the same technical advancements rather than competition.

Aside from some nitpicky numeric issues, you're considering the benefit without the cost. If we ever achieve real AI, the sort that could realistically start replacing labor pools with high efficiency, then you'd destroy your own economy. The people that work for you (in a broad enough picture) are the exact same people buying your stuff. Kill your labor pool, kill your demand, kill your economy. Then unemployed people get angry, start torching AI systems, and electing what will be called 'luddites.'
Snowflake’s customers are the victim, not Snowflake.
The definition of rent seeking is manipulating the political environment to create new wealth for yourself without creating net wealth for society.

The classic example is the owner of a section of river imposing a toll for boats traversing the river. The rent creates value for the owner but exactly the same amount negative value for the rest of society.

A toll for a ferry the owner created would be creating wealth. As would developing a resort there.

Modern examples of rent seeking are usually related to regulatory capture or housing politics.
The entire argument from the utilities is flawed. The solar customers are providing electricity in the middle of the city. So they are doing distribution in the sense that there are almost no transmission losses going to the city from generation.

The generation credits are not tou based and therefore they gutted their duck curve argument. And they already had the tou lever if they wanted to control the power curve. Increase the price for evening. Why punish solar customers who actually would have helped by generating power in evening. Sunset is at 8 PM.

Shouldn’t regular customers install battery to help with the curve? They should decouple solar and battery.

You are torturing the word optimal so I think it is meaningless to discuss that feature.

I also reject your view that everything is social tradeoffs. I think it is a extremely narrow perspective that completely ignores culture, norms, and behavior.
First I do the "pre sales" for free, meeting with the customer and their team, get to know what exactly they need, how much time, signing an NDA and studying their current infrastructure if they're interested. I do this for free because it helps me understand if the customer has a good position and if the work makes sense for me.

Then I write the contract, usually separated in phases. Each phase has its own schedule.

For "short" contracts (like one or two months), I send an invoice after the first phase, with about 50% of the value. Then 50% after the work ends.

For longer contracts (6 months+), I divide the total cost between the months. So if a project is 10k for 5 months, I send an 2k invoice each month. Depending on the customer, if they don't pay in at least 5 business days after the invoice is sent, I stop working.

After the contract ends, I usually provide 30 days of email/chat support to answer questions (and not hands-on work).

This is working very fine for me, but sometimes things could go wrong, so having a good lawyer ready is great as others said in this thread.

Good luck!
You do get a discount when you buy more ahead of time, and guarantee that you will buy it.

This is different from wanting a fixed price for a spot-priced product.
Correct. Not your bits, not your program (from their point of view anyway).

Even relatively simple games tightly integrated with Steam are basically rendered non-functional after getting in the poor graces of the facilitating platform. At that point, your only hope is to learn the way of the Linker, and brush up on Reverse Engineering skills and you might be able to get something working after excising or replacing the library call implementations of the people who banned you.

Try sous vide. You pre-cook the meat without losing any of the water or fat because it's sealed, then you finish the outside with a pan or grill.

My steak pipeline:

* Buy uncut slabs of USDA Prime grade ribeye from your local butcher or wholesaler like Costco. If possible, avoid blade tenderized meat.

* Individually hand-cut steaks of about a pound each. You quickly learn to eyeball this.

* Individually vacuum seal them while sucking out as much moisture as possible. A FoodSaver or similar can do this cheap and easy. Buy bulk bag rolls from Costco, first-party bags are more expensive for no benefit, while pre-cut bags cost a lot to only save a few seconds.

* Freeze them until needed. With the moisture and air gap removed, they basically become a slab of solid marble with a shiny finish. There will be 0 crystallization or freezer burn if you sealed them properly. You are now set for months of superb steak with minimal further fuss.

* When needed, put one or more of these steak modules into a 137F sous vide for at least 2 hours. Season / fry / grill / etc from there as preferred.

A simple system is built so that not many parts are intertwined and hard to understand how it is built.

A easy system might be very complexly built, but presents and easy interface for you to use. If complex it would be hard to understand how it is built and how to modify.

Basically simple describes how the system is built, while easy describes how much you need to know to use it.

They are orthogonal, so a system can be both complex and easy, both simple and hard.

I remember how out of control the lawsuits got by the mid-2000s. A friend had to drop out of college and move back home over some multi-million dollar claim on behalf of the RIAA that his family "settled" for $40K. It wasn't even clear he was responsible (the lawsuit was based on IP), but he was scared and admitted to using "file sharing services", and that was that.

I'm still disappointed that laws against barratry didn't become more prevalent in the US as a result of "copyright trolling". Instead, exceptions have been slowly chiseled out of the DMCA to restore a sliver of the rights we used to have.
They basically said:

- no expected damage for the leak

- no cost for any remediation

- no cost for any legal issue

- no expected cost to ensure it does not happen again

If you believe that they should be impacted then it's kind of a Fuck you.

They are not the ones making the law but it certainly looks like they will plainly use the fact that they can continue business as usual with almost no impact.

Not necessarily. If you add density to an existing lot, your land increases in value, and since it’s likely the majority of the value of your property, your property probably goes up in value. Then, the increased supply decreases the cost of shelter.
I'm surprised doing this more or less full scale was worth it compared to testing individual components. As a software engineer it's always eye opening that processes like integration testing are just as important in physical domains.

One of the funniest moments in modern music history, to me, was when Kim Dotcom got a bunch of superstars to sing on a track about how much they loved MegaUpload. One of the least funny moments was when the RIAA and MPAA essentially directed American and New Zealand authorities to raid his house, shut down the MegaUpload website, seize all the servers, and jail a bunch of his employees (Kim himself only barely escaping extradition).

Episodes like that really do make me fearful of what corporations might push government to do. If they want to get you on something that isn't illegal, they'll try to make it illegal. If it's already illegal, they'll try to make the punishment as severe as possible. Oversight of, and accountability from, these entities is paramount.
