Wow that’s one of the most beautiful fonts I’ve ever seen but I’m not seeing it in this document is it the actual nasa logo?
> Matrix is optimising for security/privacy at the cost of UX in other ways, and I get why.

I wouldn't say so. Have you used Element Messenger? The default trust policy is certainly optimised for something else. Similarly to default and encouraged synapse configuration. Not saying it's the wrong tradeoff but Matrix/Element are certainly not fundamentally putting privacy above their other goals.
Puzzles featured on their channel are usually too hard for me. Not all, but I spend 5-10x more time than regulars and get stuck often. So I solve these with Simon in a parallel tab (there’s a playable pink under every video). Sometimes I yell at him because he solves it in a very complex way when there was a sudoku move available.
The thing is that it's literally ILLEGAL to build low-rise buildings in big parts of the US.

Like the Brownstones many people like, can't do that. Walkable cities like in major European cities (low-mid size buildings, stores and cafes on the low levels), illegal.

There is a midpoint between 500 sqm house in a suburb and a 30sqm apartment in a 5 million person city. But not in the US, you can't do that.

What most people actually prefer would be a 200sqm two story house, with stores and schools within walking or biking distance - with proper safe sidewalks, not those foot-wide weird concrete things Americans tend to build.
well the original voice/tutor demo by "open" AI was heavily choreographed, wasn't it? it seems like it's just different people doing it, so they just have to learn from the same mistakes again.
Yes, and as mentioned in the Italian media, they were caused by lightning strikes damaging instrumentation on the rails, or by planned maintenance work. There is no suspicion of sabotage.

So churches and cemeteries need to be within walking distance, but a small mom & pop corner store is absolutely horrifying?
Why would they need to lay it out? NASA already did that. In any case, it doesn't cost 100 bucks to print a book, that's absurd. The longest Harry Potter books have 700+ pages and they don't cost hundreds.
The US has a culture of contempt for the law. I get made fun of for suggesting that people obey speed limits. Drug laws are seen with contempt. Fraud is free speech. And one of the candidates for president is a convicted felon. At that point, who cares if the guy who fixes your roof doesn't exactly have the right paperwork?
The scale is different: "thousands of travellers" vs "hundreds of thousands"

One line was blocked because of "two optic fibers" in Germany "for around three hours".

Now in France three main lines are blocked: West, North, East (+ attempt on South), the disruption will probably last for days, it's a lot more than two optic fibers.

Awesome job, giving me all the warm fuzzies from when I messed around doing the odd bit of pixel art on my old A500 way back when :)
Something like this was the first thing that came to my mind when chat gpt and their ilk started showing up. The amount of knowledge in so many fields is so vast that it is impossible for any one or even a group people to access and utilise properly.

I'm not a huge audiophile, but everyone I saw commenting on Reddit said that Plex works amazing on the Shield, with the various audio on their files. I think the primary audio feature they sought was Atmos.
Isn’t the browser inspector more than sufficient? You get the interactive object inspector in the console, live expressions, log points etc.

For node you it’s possible to hook it up with the browser inspector as well
... and then the ads move to those alternatives as well.

Look, we have been through this cycle multiple times now. It's not hypothetical.

And not, ad-free experiences are not always available. Not even close to it - consider for start the subject of TFA: public spaces covered with ads.
Choosing a platform which Google itself keeps creating and abandoning alternatives is very, very risky
It only works with 3+ disks. All data needs to be on two disks.

e.g. you have 3 100GB drives, total capacity in raid 1 is 150GB.

If you replace a broken one with a 200GB one, the total capacity will be increased to 200GB.
> I guess we all just wanted java with JIT

Oh god no. What an abomination.

Greater than 95% of the incompetence in JavaScript comes from two camps. The first of those are people who absolutely cannot program at all. The second of those are Java developers who were taught Java in school and it’s all they can do, so everything must look like Java.

The result of both tribes is pretending to do something they cannot do on their own. When you’re a pretender vanity becomes excessively important because everything is superficial, so you get layers of shit you don’t need that they cannot live without. Any attempts slice off the unnecessary bullshit always results in hyper emotional distress because people feel threatened when exposed. That right there is why I will never write JavaScript for employment ever again.

Everybody would love to see the aggressor get what's coming to them (quite deservedly), but I think they're wisely choosing to remain on the right side of history to refrain from becoming just as bad as the Russians, and so maintain their essential humanity, which the brutal Russians have clearly lost, or never had.

I don't know the ins-and-outs of btrfs in detail, but having dug into other systems that offer redundancy-over-uneven-device-sizes and assuming btrfs is at least similar: with your two drive example you won't be able to write another 50gb to that array.

For two devices, 1x redundancy (so 2x copies of everything) will always limit your storage to the size of the smaller device otherwise it is not possible to have two copies of everything you need to store. As soon as you add a third device of at leats 100gb (or replace the 100gb device with one at least 200gb) the other 100gb of your second device will immediately come into play.

Uneven device size support is most useful when:

♯ You have three or more devices, or plan to grow onto three or more from an initial pair.

♯ You want flexibility rwt array growth (support for uneven devices usually (but not always) comes with better support for dynamic array reshaping).

♯ You want better quick repair flexibility: if 4Tb drive fails, you can replace it with 2x2Tb if you don't have a working 4Tb unit on-hand.

♯ You want variable redundancy (support for uneven devices sometimes comes with support for variable redundancy: keeping 3+ copies of important data, or data you want to access fastest via striping of reads, 2 copies of other permanent data, and 1 copy of temporary storage, all in the same array). In this instance the “wasted” part of the 200gb drive in your example could be used for scratch data designated as not needing to be stored with redundancy.
CSS syntax have specific rules for how to handle unexpected tokens. E.g if an unexpected character is encountered in a declaration the parser ignores characters until next ; or }. But CSS does not have arbitrary nesting, so this makes it easier.

Comments as in your example is typically stripped in the tokenization stage so would not affect parsing. The TpeScript type syntax has its own grammar, but it uses the same lexical syntax as regular JavaScript.

A “meta grammar” for type expressions could say skip until next comma or semicolon, and it could recognize parentheses and brackets as nesting and fully skip such blocks also.

The problem with the ‘satisfies’ keyword is a parser without support would not even know this is part of the type language. New ‘skippable’ syntax would have to be introduced as ‘as satisfies’ or similar, triggering the type-syntax parsing mode.
> Make public transit better, that is how you get people out of cars and happy.

This is fantasy, you cannot snap your fingers and make this happen, nor are the people in charge incompetent. Never has a city "simply" made PT better at a pace that allowed for significant car reduction without making car users unhappy. Again, car users will always complain, unless the PT takes them less time to commute, which is physically impossible to accommodate for all car users.

> That is elitist "fuck you I got mine" mentality.

No, car users have the "fuck you I got mine" mentality: they have a short commute because they are rich enough to pay for car space in the city, and want a perpetual right to this.

> Rich people in city centers able to afford expensive houses will make it harder for poor people in the affordable neighbouring cities to move around and get to work.

Rich people live in the outskirts in big houses, but want to able to steamroll with their car right into the city center, regardless of the impact to people living in the center and along the way to it.
It's amusing, because you'd agree more with Marx than with those "commies" with those "idealist delusions" you mention.

E.g. Critique of the Gotha Programme has a whole sections where Marx rips the then still largely Marxist precursor of the SPD for trusting the state too much, for not understanding that equal opportunity means distribution can't be equal, and The German Ideology has Marx pointing out that "eat or be eaten" means socialism according to him is impossible in a society that isn't rich enough to meet sufficient needs to remove poverty entirely through redistribution.

Overall, Marx central thesis is that workers being forced into a choice of "eat or be eaten" is what he believed would eventually force them to rise up and end capitalism once capital gains sufficient upper hand to drive labour costs down so much it's rising up or starving.

These "idealist delusions" about greed not existing annoyed him enough that there's a whole section in the Communist Manifesto mocking them, and the reason Marx and Engels used the term "communist" instead of "socialist" was to set themselves apart from socialist movements that believed that people could just be convinced to stop being greedy.

If society isn't driven by greed, that would invalidate the central theses of Marxist communism. All of his core predictions rests on the assumptions that greed is what drives the evolution of capitalism towards a stage where he believed workers would eventually not put greed aside but understand that the way to maximise their own benefits would be to work together to strip capitalist of power and wealth.

Whether or not we think he was right or wrong about that, it's in any case clear that the major inspiration of communist ideologies explicitly rejected the notion of ending greed.
Ehhhh.... Why can't the government keep the road neat? Isn't that the government's job?

The problem with including a stipulation in the contract, for the private company to keep it neat, is its hard to objectively monitor (Unlike say the money paid for advertising), which will therefore 100% become a way to extort the private companies.

The optimal solution will just be 'pay off the government inspectors & spend as little on actually keeping it neat as possible'.

People need to understand a government policies is like a software program, its not trivial to just 'add a feature'. An extremely corrupt government, is like hardware that flips bits randomly all the time, so please don't make it do even more things.

Seeking Feedback on a New DEX that you don't get Rekt
Hi there!

I'm excited to share an idea for a new decentralized exchange (DEX) we're developing and would love to get your input!

Pain Point:
The cryptocurrency market is highly volatile, and traders often face liquidation due to short-term spikes or market manipulation, even when their investment direction is correct. This volatility risk can wipe out positions in an instant, discouraging traders.

Solution:
We're creating a DEX that addresses this issue with a unique exchange credit mechanism. This feature allows traders who get liquidated to recover their funds, provided they continue trading on our platform. This way, we help traders stay in the game despite short-term market volatility.

Unique Selling Proposition (USP):

Exchange Credit Mechanism: Recover funds after liquidation by continuing to trade on our DEX.
Mitigate Market Volatility Risk: Protect against violent market beta risk and manipulation.
Stay in the Game: Encourage traders to persist despite short-term volatility spikes.
We believe this DEX can set a new standard by providing a safety net for traders and encouraging continued participation in the market. We would love to hear your thoughts, suggestions, and any concerns you might have.

Looking forward to your feedback!

Thanks,

Joseph

“ In the US you couldn’t realistically bike anywhere nor does public transport go everywhere.”

This does, of course, depend entirely on where in the US you live. People commute by bike year round in Minneapolis, and it’s a stereotype for people in New York City to not have driving licenses because they take transit everywhere.

What's your take on the UI of Gmail? Or this very website you're using right now?
In september there were about 300k soldiers in the parts that soviets later occupied. If you don't think that would slow Germans down you're wrong. But more importantly during the occupation Soviets killed thousands of people in Katyn and other places, and sent close to 2 mln to gulags. They stole art, books and removed machines from factories. They raped women. And they kept doing all these dispicable acts even after the war ended. There is not much difference between ethnic cleansing that Germans did, and the one did by Russians.

Poland didn't need Stalin and his murderers. Soviet Union, and mostly Russia is responsible for millions of deaths before, during and after the wars. Even 80+ years later Russians still think that killing people is a way to save them just look at what's going on in Ukraine.

Just because Soviets pushed back Germans doesn't absolve them from all the crimes they committed. Not to mention that they cooperated with Nazi before 1941. They even widened their economic cooperation in January 1941. They didn't care that Poles were being exterminated in the Nazi occupied parts. Why would they- they were doing their part to exterminate them at the same time.
the CoC was a concession that resulted from the same timeframe the article i linked from, and it's very explicitly anti-contributor covenant, almost like they're reverse virtue signaling because they don't like its author or mission.

on that topic: invoking virtue signaling is a cheap way to discount the sincerity of people who's opinions you don't like. if you check the commit merging this CoC you might notice drew actually had some constructive criticism and not performative snark.
And for different topics too. Corporations need to understand that the only reason they are permitted to exist is to benefit the public. If they are a net negative there is no reason we cannot or should not get rid of them.
One option to increase availability though is to reduce partition times.
With RAII, it is not terribly hard to build dynamic scoping on top of thread_local variables in C++.

template<class T>
struct scoped_replace {
scoped_replace(T& ref, T new_val)
: ref(ref), old_val(ref) {
ref = std::move(new_val);
}
~scoped_replace() { ref = std::move(old_val); }
T& ref;
T old_val;
};

thread_local int val = 0;
int foo() {
return val;
}

int bar() {
scoped_replace _(val, 42);
return foo();
}
int main() {
foo(); // returns 0
bar(); // returns 42;
foo(); // still returns 0
}

Let's be real: you are not the poor person, you just want to ride your car for whatever reasons.

Poor people will chose a job that is nearer, rents and salaries adjust to job opportunities - it's a good thing to decentralize, we cannot keep concentrating more jobs and dwellers around already problematic zones.
Show HN: Rezolva – Entity resolution for everyone. Minimal. No dependencies
Hello HN! I'm excited to share rezolva, a project I've been hacking on recently. Rezolva is a lightweight library for performing entity resolution - a crucial task in data integration that involves identifying and linking different representations of the same real-world entity across datasets.

The goal is to provide a wide range of out-of-the-box functionality (matching algorithms, preprocessing functions, etc.) while also offering a framework for modular/customizable pieces of the process. To ensure easy integration into projects, the base library is built entirely using the Python standard library.

It's still in the early stages, so please proceed with a healthy dose of skepticism. I'd love to hear your thoughts and feedback!

Some planned enhancements for the near future include:

- More resolution algorithms / methods

- Larger list of default preprocessing functions

- Examples integrating with other systems for candidate selection (i.e. pgvector, hnswlib, etc.)

- Examples integrating with other systems for candidate reranking (i.e. distributing on dask/spark/etc.)

- A more functional suite of utilities for comparing resolution implementations against each other

- Utilities for auto-tuning resolution parameters

You can check out the project here: https://github.com/joshmeek/rezolva

I'm particularly interested in hearing about use cases or integration scenarios you'd like to see supported. Any contributions or suggestions are welcome!
Teaser has a mangle props feature. The mangle props by exact name or pattern has worked for me, but it might affect library objects or browser built-ins that I definitely don't want it to, but I've not gotten the mangle all props of this object version of it to work.
Idk where you got that info from because it is definitely. The CSS stack in Firefox was written in Rust in the context of Servo and then ported to Firefox.
You may be listening to the media a bit too much. The concept of 'climate' is increasingly used in a similar way as 'social justice' in some political discussions – as a broad idea to justify various authoritarian policies.

LabXchange: Interactive Learning
I had a friend who lived in New Jersey in a water front property - he used to ride a jetski over to New York to stop for a drink at a bar in a marina. The issue was you had to pay marina fees to be allowed to dock there, so while it was fun it was actually a pretty pricey way to get to NY (and you'd be wearing damp clothes) - but he still thought it was a lot of fun.

He was OK but apparently the was a lot of boat theft in that area too.

There's plenty of Rust in Firefox, see https://wiki.mozilla.org/Oxidation

You might be thinking of Servo, which is a (purely?) Rust rendering engine that Mozilla abandoned, though it's not completely dead.

It would be nice if map showed titles of all articles on extreme close up.

Overall it's interesting tool but I think for people with small amount of comments this is not much informative.
Not an insider, but I can try:

1. I don't know if Rust is being used in Firefox today (edit: turns out it is, see my sibling comment), but I can imagine why they wouldn't: Mixing C++ and Rust is probably non-trivial with the kind of portability they're aiming for. A lot of the UI and "business" logic in Firefox is, and has pretty much always been, implemented in JS and XUL (which was also available to extensions before WebExtensions, which is why Firefox extensions could back then change almost anything about the browser). So with JS available for a lot of the logic, Rust is probably mainly interesting for replacing the lower level C++ parts.

2.Back when Rust was created, it was used in a project called Servo - a new browser engine. To my knowledge there were never concrete plans to switch Firefox over to that engine, but Firefox adopted a lot of the techniques they pioneered. Mozilla was a different organisation back then, happy to experiment with no clear path to revenue. I didn't find any of those developments too surprising. I'm definitely not surprised they don't undertake a major incremental rewrite these days where it's more about fast profitability.
In general, the issue is that we can not NAVIGATE INTO sections in files, but just can FOLD THEM AWAY. Also, a system of linking to sections is missed.

Some tools can do that however:

On Windows I use Code Browser – https://github.com/nilslindemann/Code_Browser_49 – It has its bugs, but I still love it very much. Does not work decent on Linuxes (Newer versions do, but miss features)
