> Probably because they don’t have the same needs that you do?

To be clear, my entire workflow could easily be done on my laptop. It's just that I found the downsides to be minimal to non-existent and there exists only upsides.

> My primary machine is a laptop and it’s very powerful without me having compromised on its portability to any meaningful degree. I enjoy the myriad benefits of not doing remote development, such as not requiring a stable internet connection at all times.

I think a suitable development environment almost always requires a stable internet connection. But I do live in a cushy first world country, so I admit I'm privileged in that regard. From my POV, this is the only potential upside to not doing remote development. I'm curious to hear other though!
iirc (it's been over a decade), the Oyster card is a plastic card with an NFC in it. Montreal's Opus card does the exact same thing (and is probably modelled off of it and similar implementations in other cities). This article is describing the disposable, single-use ones.

If you don't want to use disposable ones, the same kiosk that dispenses the temporary cards will allow you to buy a permanent one which you can load with fares as normal.
Hitler was a unique threat that doesn’t justify an overarching global military regime that interferes with regional conflicts. Nazi Germany was used as precedent to justify countless mistaken wars in the second half of the 20th century, from Korea to Vietnam to Iraq. The US has spent trillions of dollars since 1945 intervening in border conflicts that weren’t in America’s interest.
Most of these ux enhancements should be browser addons, in my view. We have gone way beyond what a website should be responsible for versus what’s up to the reader experience to implement.
That helps explain how they were able to stay calm as the assistant stretched the limits of professionalism, hah
This was a brilliant and informative read, deserving of its own post really. Thanks!
Ask HN: What is the cheapest video streaming cloud service?
I am looking for an alternative to aws/cloudflare/google cloud/vimeo
These all seems to costly. I am looking for a cheaper alternative. May be < $5/TB
I mean yes and no. In a CL Macro you are manipulating lists of symbols and other atoms and in a sense that is code. But code has some static properties (of which lexical bindng is one) which are not reflected in that structure and which you can break pretty easily in a CL macro. A scheme syntax object carries that lexical information which is so critical to the meaning of the code and because it does it is much harder to accidentally manipulate the code in such a way that meaning of the code changes. It is exactly the static lexical binding semantics Common Lisp which introduce the conceptual tension in macro programming that requires the programmer to manually worry about gensyms. Because picolisp lacks lexical binding manipulating code lacks this complication (and, in fact, the complication of a macro system almost reduces to a trivial combination of quotation and evaluation).
This seems like an odd take. Micro LED would be a huge boon to TVs, they’ve wanted to get there for a while. And just because Apple isn’t using it doesn’t mean other device manufacturers wouldn’t.

Sure you don’t get the large funding that Apple can give. But killed? The article even says they spent $3 billion on it. So they funded it quite a bit.
> I’m not planning on doing articles or videos on my ventilation setup. Mainly because well… it is just an on/off switch?

The irony of the author responding to another request on his site with the sentence "well… it is just an on/off switch".
> Anyway, OP can just inform their parents and fix this thing, if that was really the problem.

Yes, the little time we have in our lives, I really want to spend talking with my parents about topics like browser choices.
Okay - but I'm genuinely struggling to see an example. Is the worst symptom of this issue that I'm sent to sign up on an open platform like the Web?
The linked article of the other person (about cargodist) says it distiguishes itself from an opentd extention called YACD which seems to be more what you are suggesting.

I mean, canceling a check costs money, and a charge-back (or perhaps more accurately rephrased, the request for a charge-back) on a credit card can be declined by the financial institution if they don't believe it's the correct action, and they'll usually ask you to work with the merchant first.

I'm not saying the middlemen you mention there are beyond reproach, merely pointing out the alternative systems that are implied here to be more/perfectly effective aren't exactly that either.
In practice, it was unlimited before the original change. many people had 100s of TBs and never had any issue until the policy change requiring them to move to a different product that clearly had a limit stated.
> Funny to use that homogeneity of the market as an argument here. The EU is the very institution that is working to make the market more homogeneous in Europe, and the DMA is part of that same goal.

Regardless of EU efforts, the EU can never be as homogenous of a market as the US. Even if all laws become uniform across the whole of the EU and there are no longer VAT, legal incorporation, etc. differences (probably ot happening in our lifetimes) if nothing else, any company has to translate all their content, apps, websites, etc. to the respective language(s - yes, there are countries with more than one official language, a few of them in fact) of each EU country to be able to cover the whole EU market.
For a public forum, let's just say there was a long history of expedient decisions which I had no hand in but many of us regret :-/ Understandable but there were almost certainly better paths.
What a totally braindead take.

Dismissing something innovative and hugely impactful as “kubernetes” as “not good” says all you need to know about the quality of this comment.

Also your point that none of the acquisitions have been innovated on since their acquisition? Android was originally an OS for a handheld camera.

Or are you going to bundle all the innovation into your clearly ignorant “not good” bucket as well?
Justified text is beautiful ... in narrow-ish columns with good hyphenation. But hyphenation sucks on the web, and without hyphenation you can't even do narrow columns even in the rare cases where it would make sense for the reader.

> If you want to show progress while the reader is somewhere in the middle of a page, you could use a page progress bar.

There used to be a great feature available in every scrollable window which showed one’s position: the scrollbar. The bar itself was nice and wide, and there was an indicator right there which showed where one was in the document. They were useful, and they were consistent.

Then scrollbars got skinny, and then they disappeared. And so now each page which wants such a thing has to reinvent it. Also, it’s very difficult to actually scroll windows anymore.

Edit: yeah, he does mention that it’s nice to know position in the article versus in the comments. Point, and while separate windows/panes/frames/whatever would be one way to handle it, his suggestion is probably better.
What 'type' of project ideas are this? don't need to share the idea, but in general:
webapp,networkapp, desktopapp, does it have a GUI, is it a CLI tool, etc.

These different types will likely have very different learning paths and things for you to explore that will get you to a practical skill level in the areas you want quicker than going the assembly -> c -> c++ -> script engines route for example. This last one is really a long journey (to me atleast), and it will bare fruits only near the end unless you're into embedded stuff because hardly any apps these days are written in such languages (c++ being a bit more common).
The technology just got mature enough that it's not exciting to write about, but it's still really widely used.

Message queue-based architectures are the backbone of distributed, event-driven systems. Think of systems where when this particular event happens, then several downstream systems need to be aware and take action. A message queue allows these systems to be loosely coupled and supports multiple end system integration patterns.

Notice, this is systems or enterprise development, not application development. If you're using a message queue as part of your application architecture, then you may be at risk of over-engineering your solution.
"Many." Sounds like potential propaganda to me. Who are these "many?"
Any idea if there will ever be a fix for the majority of linux distributions that cannot run cosmopolitan C applications without the bin fmt fix?

Not any orientation – if you present a QR code ticket the wrong way around, or even just angled away from the plane the reader focuses on too much, it doesn't work.

Contactless tickets work both ways, and in addition to that usually have a larger, more forgiving "landing area". On top of that, they can usually read through a wallet (but that's more relevant to regular commuters, arguably; tourists and infrequent riders will likely have purchased the ticket just moments before using it).
I don't see how that's relevant. The game studios can use whatever OS they want. It's not about "windows was never involved", it's about "I'm not subject to their BS"
The black box also reflects our own tendencies via data, so accusing it of biases almost requires admitting that we have the same biases. It’s a very effective barrier to criticism.
Image recognition is AI. LLMs are the latest flavor of AI, but that doesn't invalidate the term for everything that has been around before.

Nice list! I like many of these "microfeatures" too. Some I have on my site (https://evalapply.org), some I don't because I don't want to require Javascript for blog functionality. I think I have a few others not in that list.

This is my set of "microfeatures", which are all available in the post I linked below [1].

- All posts must have title, summary, dates (published, updated), one tag at least, and hot link to top of post (it's always #main)

- Open graph metadata for all pages (title + summary)

- All first-party content must be accessible as plain HTML

- Typography and separator elements to establish structure and distinguish functionally different areas of content

- In-page navigation (especially jump links to and from footnotes)

- Table of contents when needed, in a disclosure element

- Custom navigation to group a series of posts

- Markers for external links

- Captions for images and embeds

- Disclosure elements for extra context

- Footnotes (with links back to the referring text)

- Index pages with summaries (the main blog index, and each tag's index)

- RSS feed (global)

So far I'm reasonably happy with things as they are. At some point I'd like to participate in a webring.

Funny, I started to code some of my linux x86_64 programs... using RV64 assembly (the new C), with a small in-process RV64 assembly interpreter.

Everything seems to converge more and more toward RISC-V these days.
Most of my media content is podcasts, and I still consume all of my podcasts via RSS feeds. I have yet to run into a podcast where this did not work. RSS isn't the past, it's the future, and painting it as dead is an odd characterization in my view when it's alive and well.
Primary, non-rechargeable lithium batteries typically contain metal lithium [0], and are actually more likely to catch fire when mishandled, compared to Li-ion stuff.

Specifically, most common Li-ion fires start when overcharged (especially with high current and in cold), and from short-circuits (e.g. when pierced). But only have a very small chance of spontaneously igniting from just disassembly alone [1]. Still non-zero chance, don't open them!

Primary/metal lithium batteries, on the other hand, are much more likely to burst into flames when opened. Notably, lithium-iron disulfide (AA/AAA "alkaline replacement") cells are notorious to do that just from air exposure, even if one is very careful to not short/pierce anything.

I have memories of coming back from nursery to watch a particular children's programme and my mum minding another child regularly. I also remember visiting Spain/Barcelona around that time (aged 3)

My first computer memories, were playing attic attack on a spectrum when it first came out and my uncle getting a miniature handheld golf game, which must have cost at least £60 in 1982 approx and then a c64 soon after. My cousins also had an atari 2600, even then I thought it was terrible! The defender clone was good though.
And for organizations, it's only $419 for the first year. It's $251/yr from 3+ years on.

It should be noted that $419/year is $35/mo, which is still $10/mo cheaper than the Visual Studio 2022 Professional monthly subscription at $45/mo. $21/mo at 3+ years is less than half.
It’s well understood in the field. It’s not well understood by laymen. This is not a problem that people working in the field need to address in their literature.
You can’t outsource liability to a random Chinese supplier with no significant presence in US. Small Chinese company will sign whatever agreement you want and promise to do whatever checks you need - and then do absolutely nothing. What are you gonna do if something goes wrong? Sue them in Chinese court? Good luck.

If you want actual compliance, you have to send actual person (that you trust - it’s another big problem as that person can get bribed) in flesh and blood to verify everything and essentially be part of supplier team. That’s the only way.
Kitchen rat from 16-27 years old, worked shitty dives to fine dining. Realized working kitchens is not healthy or profitable long term so I made my hobby (tech) my career. Overall it was a great decision, but I still deeply miss the kitchen. If I could have a sense of normalcy and decent pay I would strongly consider going back to the line.
It's a rebuild with a few more patches on top (like ksplice). If you need a RHEL rebuild, they're the first to release security updates of any of the rebuilds I've tested. See my other comment for more info.

I wish they would add ZFS to it.
Certainly the overwhelming view of HN is that they're morally equivalent, but that's more an indictment of blinkered HN groupthink than a statement of fact.
Maybe not as much in the EU, but in the US it's completely insane:

"Stay in our ecosystem or else your friends/family will stop including you in group chats, stop sharing pictures with you, stop sharing video moments with you"

Apple leverages your personal social connections against you in the US...and by and large people don't seem to know or really care.
I'm not a daily driver of windows, but I keep it installed on 1 box for optionality and to act as a beafy steam streaming box. Its frustrating enough to fight through the microsoft account stuff in the more recent versions, but the thing that pisses me off the most is their insistence on adding and/or re-enabling things _on every update_. I dont login often but when I do theres yet another service enabled or re-enabled on startup that I need to remove. Its the most frustrating game of whack-a-mole ever.

Dont even get me started on trying to do the same with my kids accounts on the same box. I suppose group policies are probably the answer but it shouldn't be this hard, and it shouldn't be this frustrating.
Actually, they do matter.

Assembly lines give you GREAT control over where the code is located, how it's lit (consistently), and what you do on read error (can't shunt off the passenger to a read error bin, so they don't hold up the line). Rotational angle doesn't matter, perspective skew does. And then - it's a leaf of paper, so you get folds and obscured parts (yes, correctable...up to a point).
Where I live, I'd be far better off not buying the tickets. The fine is less than 2 months with a pass and I'm checked 2-3 times a year. Yet most of these checks don't find anyone without a ticket. Monthly ticket costs about 1.5% of average monthly income for that city, less than 4% of minimal wage. I'm quite convinced that reasonable pricing is the key.
Online pay providers show that it is very well possible. There are tons of payment providers which are widely supported. The only difference is that some of them have a physical presence while others do not.

With a common standard, the available of card-based payment providers would indeed increase. In europe, you often can't pay with Diner's Club or American Express. If they would not all have proprietary systems and were compatible, then their adoption would in-fact increase.

Naturally, not every grandmother and their dog should be able to use this standard but there must be a well-respected authority behind it. Taken to the extreme and we couldn't trust anybody we couldn't have root certificates.
With an improvement of 87.5% to reliability compared to land-based data centers.

I wonder what factors led them to discontinue the project.
Xcode only works on a Mac, and to do it you need to be registered in the Apple developer program.

So if you want to develop an app for iPhone you can do it no problem, as long as you buy another apple device to code it on, pay Apple the subscription fee to join the developer program, and then you can install it on your Apple phone.
Interesting. Is there any indication as to when we can expect the ruling?
'Fit2Drive' transforms assessing older drivers with cognitive decline
Sure, and I've bought those for myself. Doesn't change the fact that they're (perceived as) useless for nearly all business use cases.
True but gives you some additional time, and yes don't rely on ext. support, neither from RH nor Oracle. It just gets harder and harder to upgrade, as i wrote further down my preferred upgrade time-frame is 3-5 years max.
That's a problem of ads/comments being even there.
They're one of the most powerful, and one of the most scrutinized. Keeping them insulated from political pressure is incredibly important. Otherwise you end up with a monetary policy of "drastically cut rates right before the election to protect the incumbent".
So most businesses.
that theory doesn't seem to encompass all that is know.

> Wallace notes: “The mitochondrial theory of aging holds that as we live and produce ATP, our mitochondria generate oxygen free radicals that inexorably attack our mitochondria and mutate our mitochondrial DNA.”1

if aging is killing the mitochondria, why then the mother passing mitochondria to the offspring give them a blank state if they got dna-damaged mitochondria to begin with?
> I suspect the STM solution may overall have less waste. If you read the article, the chip is the size of a grain of salt.

The antenna isn't, however. In any case, I think there's a pretty high chance these tickets will not end up in a dedicated recycling facility that can properly separate antenna from paper and recycle both, disregarding the chip.

For similar reasons, Japan is phasing out even magnetic stripe single-ride tickets out of recycling concerns (in favor of QR code based ones).

> Imagine someone who is spending 20 minutes to save themselves 4 pennies on their electrical bill

That's not an appropriate comparison, though. Buying a reusable token doesn't take 20 minutes more than buying a paper ticket.

Imagine instead a device manufacturer spending some months of R&D to help every single household in a large country save 4 pennies on their electrical bills, and it doesn't seem so absurd anymore.
I want white collar criminals to see justice, but sentencing in the USA is crazy extreme. 25 years plus a lifetime ban on securities trading is just fine.

Yeah, I thought so too (since they're only moving from COS signed to RH signed), but it's hard to describe. I've had everything from proxy issues; to python; to PHP-fpm breaking after the upgrade. It's just a constant flood of 1 step forward 3 back. Some from random gremlins. For example, last week I wanted to try a test conversion of a box to Alma linux and it worked fine, but broke PHP, so I had to revert the snapshot.

This week, the analysis blows up completely, despite nothing changing on the box. And that's just dev systems, I have zero confidence to move any prod systems.
"what would a grad student know about the real world" is seeming like fair analysis given this.
This seems like evidence that there is a natural division and you're in the second camp, no?
This is R&D, I guess they would have to design new ML methods.

Very unfortunate. I’m really rooting for South Korean battery manufacturing.
Not sure if the last paragraph was sarcasm. One third of global shipping passes through the South China Sea. If war breaks out and it becomes unsafe to ship along those trade lanes, it will be absolutely cataclysmic for the global economy, and while the US will be more insulated from the worst shocks than many other countries, Americans will absolutely feel it hit their wallets on day one.
Regional land grabs are a constant throughout history, including in America’s history. How did we end up with California again?

The fact that there was a war worth fighting 80 years ago doesn’t mean that the US needs to police every border in the world in perpetuity. Your own example proves it. Imperial Japan, alone, wouldn’t have been any of our business had it not attacked us directly. China and Korea could be speaking Japanese today and it would be fine for Americans.
I messed with it a little more before going to bed. The prerelease version changed the error and at least felt like it was closer. But I also found there was a new SDK release in the last few days that I have not upgraded yet.

Courts and judges may not understand how science works, but they understand how false statements work. They have centuries of experience with that. Libel, slander, lying under oath, false testimony, perjury... they've seen it all, over and over and over and over.

Willful data manipulation? They may see it more often with financial data, but they've seen it, rather often. And they aren't finance experts either, but they still deal with it competently.

The alternative is that science exists outside the legal system. A scientist can engage in misconduct in a way that gets believed for a while and results in multiple deaths, with no legal consequences? That can't be right.
such a data center would have been under a lot of pressure to perform
