I had a roommate with a Rand-McNally 1942 globe. Really interesting to see the state of the world in the middle of World War II. A few American states as territories, Yugoslavia, the British Empire, Africa practically unrecognizable all carved up and of course, Nazi Germany and Europe in the middle of war.
>The Russians already did the math. They are accepting the butcher's bill because the trendline is obviously heading towards a Russian victory.

If it was so simple no war would ever be fought since the losing side would just decide it's not worth the fight. It was clear Japan and Germany would lose the war the moment the USA entered, yet they fought on for four more years.
Right, I don't see the point of this at all. If anything it seems like more of a pain in the ass than just using ssh directly.

The problem with "source-available" is that it has no real definition and it conveys no user freedoms at all outside of the loose freedom to read the source code, which is why the term has never taken off with anybody. It's wholly inadequate. That's why we needed a new term that does have a concrete definition and does convey user freedoms.

Fair Source is meant to sit on the gradient between Open Source and source-available. It's not meant to replace Open Source, diminish Open Source, or claim to be Open Source. It isn't Open Source, and never has been. It's definitely not trying to be a "pseudo-open-source."

It's a new term to clearly communicate something that's close to Open Source, if we envision that gradient between Open Source and source-available, and something that eventually contributes to Open Source via delayed Open Source publication (DOSP).

The standardized protocol already exists and it’s called DLNA which Chromecast initially cannibalized in its first release and then basically killed off every single other DLNA provider and app because they Sherlocked the feature into the Android operating system and to the Chrome browser.

Now that they are at risk of being split up for their monopoly, and as they lose an Antitrust case for their search monopoly, they are probably looking to kill off the Chrome brand because Chrome is how they entirely dominated the web, warping it to their standards and killing more open standards in favor of their Proprietary technology.
Google Cast was originally built on top of DIAL, but DIAL itself is mostly about device discovery IIRC. Nowadays it's all mDNS instead.
I'm a little confused on the callout that the lambda encodings for numbers are infinitely precise? Is that not the case for typical encodings? Our typical "primitive" data types are size bound, but that is a practical choice, not a required one of the encoding scheme? (This is a genuine question. I'm assuming I am misunderstanding something.)
Gotta take all of this with a grain of salt, especially since this whole article is explicitly based on people who did end up in prison, whose plans did all fail, regardless of their hubris.

> Yet one of the hallmarks of a criminal thinking style is something called super-optimism. On a scale designed to measure this tendency, high scorers act as if they’re wearing a “bullet-proof” vest, in the sense that there’s no way their plans can fail.

Super-optimism doesn't seem like something to emulate.

Ouch, this one hurts. I lost my Dad to pancreatic cancer last year and had a very similar experience - he loved jumping on the tractor and cutting the grass on his little farm, but we went so quickly from him asking me do it temporarily while he recovered from surgery to him never getting on the tractor again.

So sorry for what you're going through, and wishing you some peace wherever you can find it. My email is in my bio, please reach out if you need someone to talk to (I have no useful expertise or advice of any kind here, but will gladly lend a listening ear).
I'm not sure why people keep considering the cost of the target like this. In the grand strategic scope it sort of matters. If you want to win a war economically you need to inflict more damage on them than they can afford, but a lot of people seem to think that means that if I spend a dollar on a munition it should cause a dollar in damage to my enemy. But even in this Grand view it doesn't work that way because each side has a different amount of dollars.

What a military really needs to look at is how much damage can that target do if they don't break it first. If a target only cost $1,000 but can somehow do a million dollars in damage to me and me spending $900,000 to service that target is $100,000 savings. This is why during some wars the US was using cruise missiles on teams of dudes in Toyotas with discarded anti-aircraft guns strapped to the back. It's not those 'shitty technicals' were worth the millions of dollars like a tomahawk, it's that those things could drive around and do millions of dollars worth of damage if unopposed. If all you're cheaper assets are already working on something you might assign a multi-million dollar munition unless the target can't do as much damage as firing the munition.

Because an unserviced enemy target can generally cause an unlimited amount of damage in wartime it generally becomes cost effective to take any opportunity to disable an enemy asset.
If you have anything, you can always lose 100% of it.
My experience was the opposite: my gen1 Chromecast's unreliable streaming is what made me get a Raspberry pi 3 :) IIRC the problem likely was the lack of support for 5Ghz WiFi combined with crowded channels in my area.
My understanding was that the main interest of SendGrid, Mailgun et al was precisely that they manage to (more or less) reliably mass send email through the great MS/Google/Proofpoint, where hitting the recipient's mailbox is less than guaranteed if you self-host.

I hope they can get access to the materials collected by "The Art of Sierra" team. That team went around collecting hundreds of documents including many original background paintings and then completely failed to produce the intended art book.

"The Art of Sierra" was started something like 15 years ago and it's been 9 years since their last facebook post. The project is totally dead but they still have all that priceless memorabilia.
There's a lot of quackery around these days, especially with regard to tech and finance.

There's quite of bit of quackery just with nutritional supplements, too. And people and companies try to bypass the FDA all the time with fake cures, the COVID-19 epidemic was just the latest version of that.

The FDA is over-zealous with their testing requirements. However, without them we will see an explosion of fake cures for everything. The legitimate pharma companies will lose money, or otherwise start cutting a lot of corners in the pursuit of profit.

We need something like the FDA to keep things in check.

Portlander here since the late 90s. Downtown for much of it. I think most people are very aware, but just aren't really too concerned about it. Well, about drugs anyway. A certain degree of "live and let live" and just general anarchism is embedded into the DNA of the city. Everything going on in Portland today are the same things that have been going on in the city for decades, it's just become much more visceral and in your face over time as the American landscape has changed. Drugs are harder now. Resources are more constrained. Everything is more competitive. It's just not nearly as easy to get by. Guns are a different story, however. I think everyone of all stripes are pretty collectively worried about that. I don't know what the answer to all these problems are, but I think it comes from US society as a whole becoming more introspective about how we ended up here to begin with.
Also Canada. The rationale is even more dubious now that streaming is the ubiquitous form of consumption.
The approach I took for a recent project was to generate raster tiles for 0-7 zoom levels on the server. This is done in the data pipeline when new data becomes available. I then load the dataset into memory on the tile server and any requests for zoom 8 and above will generate tiles on the fly and cache them for other requests.

Its worked out very well so far, but I'm working with time series that adds a new set of data every 5 minutes so I need the "on the fly" approach. After some heavy optimization it's become quite fast and often the generated tiles are returned before the base map layer is.

The upside is that it works with any map system that supports raster tiles, so any platform really.
Someone needs to tell their marketing copy writer that "more premium" is not good English (doesn't mean anything).

" Android TV has expanded to 220 million devices worldwide and we are continuing to bring Google Cast to other TV devices, like LG TVs."

This line in particular puts a bad test in my mouth, because my $2k LG G2 OLED has the worst support for casting I've ever experienced. In fact the software in general is so bad I was excited to pre-order the new Google TV Streamer this morning, so I don't have to deal with it again.

You can do as you want of course, but that feels like you're limiting yourself to the point of absurdity.
In this comment https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41166082 I linked to our document discussing our decision.
The whole idea that Watson & Crick "stole" the data from Franklin was actually created by Watson himself in his not very truthful memoir "The Double Helix" because he thought that was funny (although his idea of humor is questionable). In reality, Gosling took the photo and Maurice Wilkins, who shared his graduate student Gosling with Franklin, gave the photo to Watson & Crick. People can certainly argue that Wilkins should have consulted with Franklin before sharing the data (and for that matter with Gosling, whose opinion never seems to be considered) but the idea that it was solely her data (or that she herself even took the photo which some accounts claim) is simply false.

Although I would normally agree with an article like this because I'm not a left-tarded liberal that typically infects the world, I don't think they really made their case.

No doubt the wikipedia is left-tarded as are most institutions but it doesn't appear to me that wikimedia has captured it yet. The two appear to be operating quite independently for the most part. The article talks a lot about wikimedia funding and its pretty clear that its fully left-tarded. But there is no indication other than one editor firing that wikipedia itself is being affected directly.

Its similar to Nature. The editorial pages and blogs are filled with social justice nonsense. But the actual journals are filled with just regular nonsense..they have yet to reach peak nonsense.

I’m pleasantly surprised by Apple Airplay. I can cast anything from my iPhone or iPad to my TV, they just need to be on the same WiFi.

> It isn’t their fault ... It’s the fault of ...

These statements are the very essence of the nihilism in the article.

It doesn't matter if a situation is less advantageous to you than it was to someone 10, 20, or 50 years ago, or why the situation has changed. What matters is how you can best deal with the situation you find yourself in now.

Giving up, saying it's too hard so there's no point trying, blaming someone else all have the same outcome - nothing will change.

To use a card analogy: maybe you haven't been dealt the best cards in life, but if you fold every hand, you're never going to win. But if everyone else has terrible cards too, you can easily win with a bad hand if you play to your strengths.
This!!

People keep trying to look at war economics as each side spending a dollar to cost the other a dollar.

Really it is a countless series of wildly inequitable exchanges. Sometimes you waste a cruise missile on a single dude because that guy was a sniper and could cause tens of millions of dollars of damage. Sometimes you spend $1,000 on a single drone and take out a billion dollar parked strategic bomber.

Trying to look at each Exchange in an economic context is ridiculous, not that someone doesn't need to look at economics. But looking at it at the scale of individual targets and price tags isn't the right way.
Vote on Algolia vs. Trieve HN Dataset Blind Search Relevance Poll?
Hello! We at Trieve are working to build better search for HN and are testing some strategies. We would really appreciate votes on our poll if you have a minute or two.
I'm sorry but "we should be more adaptable" is clearly just misdirection from the actual thing at stake: the need to stop this insane rate of change caused by humans.

The fact that there were or will be future rapid changes is insignificant, considering their frequency and scale compared to human caused change. See the hockey stick graph or https://xkcd.com/1732/.

I don't know what feverish polarized politics you refer to since I'm not in the US but you have to understand that the words you are writing mirror the tactics used by big oil to delay change.
Show HN: I built a serverless data API builder – no storage, low latency
Hey HN,

I'm Bo, cofounder of Fleak.ai. Over the past several months, our team has been hard at work developing Fleak, a data API backend builder, and we would love your feedback on what we've built so far.

What Fleak Does:
Fleak simplifies the process of building and deploying API backends. It features a no-code IDE UI that lets you create workflows by chaining together steps such as native SQL transformations, calling LLM models, AWS Lambda functions, and more. With a single click, you can deploy these workflows to a production endpoint (during test, we are able to handle 5000 QPS without LLM node).

Key Features:

Native SQL Transformation: Work with SQL directly, without the need for a storage layer.
Simplified Setup: No more cluster configuration and script juggling.
Efficient Deployment: Streamlines the deployment cycle and reduces the need for constant monitoring.
The inspiration for Fleak came from my frustration with maintaining production data pipelines, especially with the added complexity brought by LLMs. Fleak aims to simplify life for data practitioners.

Known restrictions:
1. not all SQL syntax is supported, we are adding daily
2. free version has rate limit due to cost
3. LLM node latency is not optimized due to cost, but our base rate limit is higher than out of box models and can be elastic.

Our codebase is meticulously maintained, though it's not open source yet as we're still considering which parts to release.
You can check out Fleak at www.fleak.ai.

Seems like this should be obvious, but it's not about the grass. It's about the loss of agency.
They're not a monolith. If they're purchasing from Bandcamp artists, then they aren't affiliated with the RIAA anyway. The middle man is slimmer in the music underground. For the larger "industry", artists also seem to benefit more from concerts.
AirPlay or more accurately "screen mirroring" does cast sound and more often than not recognizes the video content and casts it full screen (from most iOS media apps such as youtube at least). It doesn't always work on my samsung TV without an Apple TV device though, in about 10% of cases it'll just fail to connect to the TV altogether

I would rather require a tool to manage host keys. I really wish to write them along with the host configs in my `~/.ssh/config` instead of `known_hosts`. Additionally I think other host keys e.g. from GitHub should be delivered in a better way. For example, on Archlinux I would prefer getting them from package manager instead of being prompt during connection. Unfortunately host keys can only be written in `known_hosts` and `known_hosts` does not support importing or other method to seperate into different files.

EDIT: I was wrong. See comments.

Does anyone have any suggestions?
I appreciate your thoughtful explanation. Thank you.

*FYI, I don’t see anything other than “flagged” at the link you shared.

That really depends on the label.
Show HN: Tied – Track your calories by taking a picture
Hi HN,

I recently wanted to track my calories consumption in order to lose some weight.

Unfortunately when I use existing app, it's too cumbersome for me to enter the calories.

Yes some app do allow you to take picture as well but you still need to select which meal you are eating. So you are just selecting from their database.

With Tied, not only can you take a picture of the food you are eating, you can also describe it and it will give an estimation in an instant. I find that I can save my meals much faster this way compare to other apps.

It's still very early in development but I do hope you guys give it a try.

Any feedback are most welcome!.
Yes, but this argument isn't based on how people actually listen to music.

It's really unclear whether an artist-centric model would make any real difference to artists - under an artist-centric model the more an individual user streams the less the artists get per stream, so if you have a small number of fans who listen to you a LOT the artist-centric model means you get less money
push != force. The definition of the word "forced" (which you used) I gave you is from Merriam-Webster. The definition you're giving is of the word "force" which is different. Google isn't forced to maximize profit at all costs if it breaks the law, no company is. No boards are vulnerable to lawsuits for not maximizing profit either. That's a myth. Having market forces doesn't mean involved companies are forced to do anything illegal. Do you think because it's the same verb that it has the same meaning, or did you just Ctrl+F "force" and copy the first instance you found?

Github already has vim inspired keys (/ to search, gX to navigate and so on), I don't use Confluence or Jira but a quick search shows me they also have some (/ to search, gX to navigate, n/p for next/previous) without changing any settings. All your examples has vim keys without me doing anything at all.

In my browsers I use vimium, and you can embed actual neovim into textboxes with a few different addons, one of them firenvim. I rarely use GUI though and that's my point, I don't have to since 95% of my work is in the terminal.
