The non US companies I have tried this with in the past also had a US number, but their receiving account was non-US and I am fairly certain that is what they trigger off of. The protection in place is intentional and if anything I have asked the bank for even tighter controls. I want something closer to the 3rd parties that allow making specific rules, unique card numbers for specific vendors but getting a bank to do that is difficult. My card does not have strict foreign alerting, it has explicit blocks of non US that I put in place. If someone outside of the US tries to use the card, it completely disables the card until I walk into the bank which is not a problem as they are just down the road and they all know me. The only option with Fastmail is to disable my protections for a day. I don't mind that as they have earned some limited trust from me and they are inexpensive. VPS and server providers can get more expensive really fast so I am less inclined to do that unless they show up as a US entity as far as the bank can see. That's why I was asking if others here also had to disable their protection or if they know for certain they show up as a US entity.
Yeah, it was all 90s ROMplers and soundfounts. I can definitely record some dungeon synth bangers with my Kawai K1 (which is basically ROMpler, just samples are single cycle waveforms) and it sounds just right.
July 16: "Elon Musk announced that ... Twitter is moving to Austin Texas"

August 7: Twitter moving to LA.

What made LA more appealing than Texas?
Sure thank you. Intel variation will be awesome. It will be much cheaper than existing AMD variant i think. And any idea when we can get ARM vps?
Sitting still for long periods is naturally difficult for little kids. Of course they shouldn’t be allowed to go nuts, but a kid who just sits quietly for long periods with no signs of antsiness might be having their spirit crushed by authoritarian parents (or might just be unusually calm). Good parenting is a give and take.
That is a cool project.

I wouldn't use it for testing my software, though, as it's a bit too "edgy" for that, but it is a great way to keep your old kit going.
Same here, even shared with my family with note: "Pelisky on top of hackernews today" :D
A few things to consider:

- You don't have to worry too much about efficiency from the ground, since resources are plentiful unlike the sky where every gram counts. For example it would be completely fine to have a 20% efficiency from the ground to the sky (if we don't take into account the heating of the wire), for example spend 2kw to get 400w in the drone. Not ideal, but acceptable to many.

- Also, the efficiency can be greatly improved by using high voltage AC and a transformer on both ends. Very similar to how the power grid works, you can use thin cables to deliver a lot of power, I would not be surprised if 90% efficiency can be achieved. This field has been well researched, tethered drones can fly for hours, but the ranges that are useful in war (10+ km) are a novelty.
>Isn't it what's everybody does in the industry?!

We built against Stripe's sandbox and never had to test in production, so I never had to use a real credit card. It may have happened when going live for the first time, but that would have been two/three charges with one time payments and recurring payments (hardly what you'd call robust testing). Issues observed in production can usually be reproduced in the sandbox. There's some other caveats between the environments though that I'm forgetting but I don't think we ran into those.

We also had an ACH payment provider (add your bank account, verify it, we deduct from it, etc.) that also had a sandbox and had no issues there either.
How would that allow you to distinguish the coil from its mirror image?

AMD has been doing really well on their CPU side the last few years, but with Intel's recent issues at the some time as Zen 5, I have to imagine this is going to be a good time for them going forward.

I remember when AMD was the budget choice that threw raw speed and cores at the problem with CPUs like the FX 83XX chips and Intel was the real player (memories of building my first computer in high school). I love the switch up. I hope Intel can get their comeback as well (without just throwing 240W at the processor). I love some competition in the x86 market.

Solr is seen (probably unfairly) as passé by many people.

I used Solr back in 2008-2009 or so and it did a great job, but people didn't like that it used XML rather than JSON. Then we had a requirement for something like Elasticsearch's percolate query functionality, which Solr didn't support. So we switched, and subsequent projects I've joined have all used ES.

As I understand, Solr now has a JSON REST API and it's improved in other ways over the years, but ES has quite a bit more mindshare these days: https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=solr%2Celastic...

So now in addition to the "does it do the job?" question, teams might also ask "can we hire and retain people to work with this technology rather than the more popular alternative?".
Looking forward to more US locations.
I think it is a fair price and for such low volumes I'm not sure how they are keeping costs so reasonable.
Good PR review from a skilled and more senior developer catches these things, most of the time.

Just like how tests catch functionality issues , most of the time — bugs still exist in tested software, because people make incorrect assumptions about how/what to test, or implement the test wrong.

> it can be assumed that comments will eventually go out of date.

Don’t make assumptions. That’s just a lazy excuse for not trying.

The same thing could be said for tests

> it can be assumed that tests will eventually go out of date

So why should we bother updating tests? They’re just going to go out of date?!!

Because it makes the codebase easier to work with for someone brand new.

Same as comments.

This lawsuit is ridiculous. If Twitter can sue companies for not advertising, can Tesla sue people for buying vehicles not made by Tesla? Can Google sue companies for advertising on Bing? Can Rivian sue Tesla buyers for not buying Rivians?

I think it's super subjective, and I'm sure it's just my mental block from 30 years of C style languages.

I have trouble with the equals sign being "pattern matching". There are other syntax things like that, where it seems like too much is being done in odd (to me) ways that are hard to grok.

I know a lot of people love it, and I really did try, but for whatever reason the syntax just doesn't work for me.
It's a natural fit --- con artists can appreciate a good con.

I will second this opinion.

Mozilla has strongly displayed a willingness to be "the other side of the coin" to Google's browser monopoly. They go hand in hand.

IMO poster above is correct - they exist mostly as a scapegoat Google can point to in order to avoid monopoly claims (And Google is paying Mozilla more than 80% of their revenue to prop them up in this act).

Mozilla markets themselves as the "privacy focused alternative" but in reality I find that marketing mostly whitewash.

Please do pretty much anything else instead of giving this money to Mozilla.

> Xcompose only offers sequences started with the "compose" key (whatever it is mapped to)

Not correct. For example, on my usual keyboard layouts¹, I use sequences starting with <dead_A> and <dead_U> for superscripts and subscripts.

> and resulting in a single X key-symbol

Also not correct. I certainly have a few non-single-keysim entries in my .Xcompose, e.g. <Multi_key> <R> <2> ↦ ℝ².

It's not quite so clear cut. Close. Even OWASP acknowledges there are trade offs:

> The problem with returning a generic error message for the user is a User Experience (UX) matter. A legitimate user might feel confused with the generic messages, thus making it hard for them to use the application, and might after several retries, leave the application because of its complexity. The decision to return a generic error message can be determined based on the criticality of the application and its data. [1]

Though it's a pretty low bar. Given the common uses of Wordpress, there is certainly a very strong argument that it warrants the extra security.

I'm not defending its UX, I think it should have more generic errors. Just pointing out that this one particular example is not in and of itself the best banner to hold up when it comes to bad security as it is not a clear cut answer. A person could be very considerate of security and still come to the conclusion that the better UX is worth the risk.

The key idea is a bit obscured.

A rational number is a finite computation of integers. It is finite but in magnitude and in level of detail.

Thus, if you can rewrite a computation as the same computation but with only a subset of the terms, or with smaller (absolute value) integer terms, in a repeatable way, then the computation must either collapse to 0, or be infinite in either number of terms or size of a term. That is, not rational.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proof_by_infinite_descent

Any finite set of rational numbers is equivalent to a set of integers.

> I've nerve seen it on glassware though.

No but the process that strips the paint off delicate crockery is self-evidently abrasive, which stands to reason when you look at the scratch marks in glass that has been through too many cycles.

It's not on glass because an individual washing won't destroy it but repeated washing eventually scratches the glassware to hell. I've seen it with my own eyes.
There are a few very bad neighborhoods and the videos you are seeing accurately depict them. Most unfortunately, those bad parts are mixed into downtown where most offices are.

As a resident, it’s extremely disheartening and must be fixed. The Tenderloin has been bad for years, but fentanyl has taken it to the next level.

However, most neighborhoods are different. Most are free from encampments and open-air drug use. Many residents just avoid downtown and some aren’t wise to how bad it really is.

Hence why the city is still so expensive.

It makes it so much easier for attackers - they then can know that a user has an account there too, and can then use that information to find that user's other known passwords. It's offering up information the attacker might not have.

Well, you did a bad job at explaining.

Both are scummy behaviors aimed at "hacking"/exploiting the human psyche for ill intents. And, in any case, I provided an even more apt comparison in the followup comment: drug lords and mobsters. Or scam artists of any kind. Such an article wouldn't be flagged on HN if it explains something technical or about the human psyche; but it's ok to respond "gross" if it contains a sentence such as the one which sparked this conversation.

Agreed.

Beer drinking being casual isn't a counter argument. Even if its a minority, there are a lots of beer 'nerds' who take drinking beer seriously. And those are usually the people who have some amount of influence threw various mechanisms.

As a Guinness fan I gladly go to a pub that does it correctly, compared to one that doesn't.

So the idea that there is a business impact to having lower quality experience even visiaul can not just be ignored by saying 'drinking is causal'.

As a pub you have to try to offer something that you can't get from aluminum cans in the park.

Damn neat, congrats! Some minor feedbacks to get potential users hooked perhaps even more likelier:

Took me a while to hit the "Walk" feature, given that this is perhaps for many the major showcase highlight here. First, having to scroll down on home page to "Try it out", then it defaults to "Fly" mode and the Fly/Walk toggle is kinda down&right, would suggest top&left (unless RTL default in user agent =). And when this default Fly mode first opens up, the apartment box is pretty small (1/5 of horizontal space here), might consider defaulting to the biggest zoom level that will still show it completely in all rotations (that's what the user'll do next).

Nice that the glassy surfaces reflect in Walk mode! Was surprised about lack of specular-highlighting, isn't that fairly cheap compared to reflections? Or maybe planned. Not a dealbreaker on the user side tho I'd guess. But given all the gfx goodies from reflections to ambient occlusion in there, I was a bit curious.

Another thing is that sometimes the canvas goes white with Chromium (Version 126.0.6478.182 (Official Build, ungoogled-chromium) Arch Linux (64-bit)). But the slightest redraw provocation (click-that-actually-moves, or drag-that-rotates) resolves that. (But if you know under what conditions your canvas would fill white, you can look around for what might mistakenly cause such conditions..)
The first years of post-reunification were not good years for innovative companies from the former GDR.

There was lack of money for investments unless you got sold to Western investors who might or might not have understood the value of your product. Eastern companies notoriously had old machines and low productivity and no experience in sales & marketing. Wages had to be paid in hard currency all of a sudden while traditional markets in the East did not have this hard currency. Western markets usually were already very competitive (as mentioned in the article where they tried to sell to Western Germany a couple of years before).

Additionally, there was no internet back then, so crowdfunding wasn't available, direct selling to consumers was very hard, and sophisticated market places did not exist.

I know those glasses, they were indeed very good, but kind of out of fashion in the early 90's.

I’m an MR tech. We see a lot of truck drivers and builders. Bad backs do seem prevalent in those professions.

Being overweight seems even more likely to cause trouble.

Basing views off the people I see rather than actual stats is bound to be problematic. Eg does every rugby player have a bad neck? Does every soccer/football, netball and league player have a torn ACL? Every golfer has a bad elbow?

We don’t scan the healthy truck drivers.
Good - Mozilla is only propped up in this position by Google, it's time to kick the crutch away.

I'm tired of hearing people who think Firefox is the alternative to google when they're clearly both happy with the terrible status quo.

Break the chromium team out of google and put some actual damn laws in place for data collection.
As advertising is a huge part of Google's revenue, I'm surprised they've let an extension like uBlock Origin work on Chrome as long as they have. If you haven't tried Firefox in a while, it's time to give it another shot. If I could get Firefox to handle Microsoft Teams meetings, I wouldn't even have Chrome installed.
