> If you're dipping into Calico and friends

That was my homelab (all bare metal, except for one node that was an VPS), so full DIY setup without any clouds, meant to try things out and learn how they work. I tried a bunch of CNI options, I remember at least Weave, Calico and Flannel. I just opened K8s page about networking and looked at the presented options, trying them out.

The idea was to learn stuff. I’ve yet to see a complex system that never fails, so I wanted to see how it works (and what are the limitations, thus the v6 experiment, heterogeneous node architecture with one aarch64 node, etc.), how it can fail (accelerated through less homogeneous and less reliable conditions) and what does it take to debug and fix it. On my terms, when I can tolerate downtime and have time to research, not when a real production system decides it wants to satisfy Murphy laws at the worst possible moment. And - no surprise - it had its failures, and I learned that debugging those aren’t easy at all. Was nice when it worked, of course (or I wouldn’t have bothered at all).

> Regarding your GKE Cluster, I find it improbable that k8s itself was borked

Well, what can I say? It did, and it certainly wasn’t an application-level error.

Actually, now I remember (it was five years ago or about so - quite a while so my memory is blurry) it did that not once but twice. One time I diagnosed the issue - it was a simple conntrack table overflow, so I had to bump it up. Another time, I have no idea what was wrong - I just lost database connectivity, but I’m certain it wasn’t the application or the database but something in the infra.
I used to do this, but virtually all streaming sites etc block VPS IP ranges now. The beauty of OPs idea is that you get a nice domestic IP instead of one belonging to AWS/GCP/etc.

I've also resorted to putting tailscale exit nodes in foreign relatives homes with Pis in the past.

There are enough weird issues with pretending to be a domestic internet connection from a VPS IP that I've given up trying.
We do know. Tesla wins, obviously in the US, and apparently also in Europe:

Could it change? Maybe. But right now Tesla is the most popular EV in the US and Europe.
It makes you wonder what the legal implications are of owning an Amazon, Google or Apple device with a voice assistant turned on in one of these jurisdictions.
Only if you don’t care about accessibility and common controls.
headline was misleading and so is any theory explaining false events
The first project (swgp-go) which makes traffic resemble random noise, can be trivially blocked. The DPI calculates the ratio between number of 0 and 1 bits, and if their amount is approximately equal, and traffic doesn't match allowed protocol (like HTTPS), then the connection is blocked.

If you don't want to stand out you should use steganography and masquerade as a legitimate and popular protocol. It seems that MASQUE does exactly this.
It's 50/50. Yes, ideally it gets punted to the states, the states can mark their preferences (see abortion). What's great about that too is you can move to a state that matches your believies.

The 50/50 part of it - still there is federal vs state jurisdiction. If there's stuff on federal jurisdiction that's just a mess as far as congress never fixing it (say - immigration), states can do this and that about it somewhat (sanctuary city) - they can manage some rotten branches - but they can't touch the rotten root of federal jurisdiction
You shouldn't actually need that much disk bandwidth to run something like a reddit though. 192 GB of RAM (which gaming motherboards can support) costs under $1k and should be enough to keep several weeks worth of threads warm. On the other hand, a large thread might need to transfer ~100 kB, so at 10k requests/second, that's ~8 Gb/s. I can't find stats on how many page views/second they get, but I imagine it's more than 10k/s and less than 100k/s, so presumably somewhere between 10Gb/s and 80Gb/s you have more than you need for that use case.
That's very true. But ... there has to be a change somewhere to get a different outcome. There has been no change, so there is no different outcome.
See other child reply upthread, lots of service-to-service style interactions that look more like distributed state than a CR. And my view was across an org scope where even “infrequent” quickly accumulated. AWS is on the order of 50,000 SDEs, running 300 public services (plus a multiple more internal), and each team/microservice with 50 independent deployment targets.
Like everything else it's a tradeoff. If you are running _everything_ inside Kubernetes you can easily move away, but I think you're loosing much of the benefit of being in the $big_cloud to begin with. If you have the staffing to provide your own db's, block storages, caches, IAM, logging/monitoring, container registries etc in a reliable way "as a service", the jump to some much cheaper bare metal hosting is not that far.

For me the sweet spot is to have all compute in Kubernetes and stick to open source or "standard" (e.g S3) services for your auxiliary needs, but outsource it to the cloud provider. Fairly easy to move somewhere else, while still keeping the operational burden down.

But agree that having e.g all your databases in a proprietary solution from the cloud vendor seems sketchy.
No it sells cars and adds to margin right now
That’s a phone. You are describing a smartphone. Does this make all phones “AR” devices?
Only if you chose to configure an unreasonably low cap.
Rust emits unreasonable amount of debug information. It's so freakishly large, I expect it's just a bug.

Anything you compile will dump gigabytes into the target folder, but that's not representative of the final product (after stripping the debug info, or at least using a toned-down verbosity setting).
What are you talking about lol. It's best selling car in the world over 100k and widely loved
I should probably add:

JSON(5, with comments) as a config storage format? And optional editing UI? Oh heck yes, that's perfectly reasonable.

Requiring manual JSON editing, even with fancy autocomplete? Hell no. Turn that into a UI with the same info you show in the autocomplete. Obviously. WTF VSCode. WTF every tool that has copied this. This is not even slightly acceptable.
This is funny but six them are in one comment, another four are in two replies :P

I feel like I must be missing something here. Why not store the ID of the top-most visible list item, and just render the next n until you run out of box height? Surely you're not trying to draw thousands of items that aren't even visible on screen?
Speaking of rope. Right this moment GKE clusters can't provision large volumes (~4TiB) because their CSI driver receive OOMKill when formatting volume. Problem was reported back in Apr and still not fixed.
Makes me want a wearable white noise generator, except it's specifically tuned to jam speech transcription AI.
Japan was so dominate in video games in the early days it has always surprised me that they did not create tech companies the way the US has.

Why?
I was surprised they didn't have any idea how to use Find My. That and their iCloud account was all kinds of messed up.

I think we take for granted how easily these things come to us as tech people.
It's already succeeded in the embedded world, displacing not only a lot of use of Arm, but also pretty much killing off all other custom ISAs that some company engineer invented in order to not have to go through the hassle of licensing a core. All the major FPGA companies now offer a fully-supported RISC-V soft core as well as cores with their proprietary ISAs, and several FPGA companies already offer chips with RISC-V hard cores. In ASICs Synopsys now offers ARC-V and Cadence has some deals in place.

In applications processors chips about to come out in the next 12 months, such as this XiangShan and the SG2380, are getting up into the performance level of 10 year old Zen and Core i5 etc, which is still a perfectly fine performance level for many people and uses.

Linux has been available for RISC-V for many years, a number of distros have 2nd tier support for RISC-V, probably moving to 1st tier soon.

Android is working towards 1st class support for RISC-V, with the desired ISA extensions, fast enough hardware, and full software porting looking to converge into competitive products around 2026-2027.

Arm is NOT a "common ISA". It is proprietary and support can be arbitrarily removed at any time. Since 2023, Arm's highest performance CPU cores have dropped support for the 32 bit ISA(s) even for user programs. That's orphaning an almost 40 year history of 32 bit Arm software, restricting it to being used only on legacy CPUs which will rapidly have much less performance than newer high end CPUs.

At the same time, the low end Arm microcontroller family remains 32 bit only. And the 32 bit and 64 bit ISAs are totally different to each other.

RISC-V vendors on the other hand are happy to license you a 64 bit core with Cortex-M0 or Cortex-M3 size and features. These are often valuable as a control processor in a bigger chip with 64 bit applications processors and >32 bit address space.

In RISC-V the 32 bit and 64 bit ISAs are almost identical and it's very cheap and easy to support 32 bit code on a 64 bit CPU -- the RISC-V spec fully supports this, though demand is low as there is not yet a lot of legacy 32 bit RISC-V code. Most current RISC-V CPU cores don't support this, though for example the THead C908 does.
Whilst it doesn't have the mindshare or some features which are tablestakes for enterprise customers, I've found Linode's pricing to be extremely predictable for small projects. Even post Akamai acquisition. I'm sure other smaller players are also just fine.

Couple that with the fact you can achieve quite a bit on simple set-ups that are adequately sized to begin with, you can save quite a bit.

Not all of us need elasticity, or environments being spun up/down on commit.

Local LLM topics are a treadmill of “what’s best and what is preferred” changing basically weekly to monthly, it’s a rapidly evolving field, but right now I actually tend to gravitate to Gemma2 9b for coding assistance for Typescript work or general question and answer stuff. Its embedded knowledge and speed on the computers that I have (32GB M2 Max, 16GB M1 Air, 4080 gaming desktop) make for a good balance while also using the computer for other stuff, bigger models limit what else I can run simultaneously and are slower than my reading speed, smaller models have less utility and the speed increase is pointless if they’re dumb.
Car designers have lost the plot. Fake vents, fake grills. Black naked plastic bumpers. Yuck! Just make the whole damn thing one color.
I'm more surprised that there's not a way to message the owner (or whomever has Find My registered for the airpods) without revealing their full information, but I guess that's a bridge too far, and they figure that Find My is good enough.
Meanwhile the actions of BMW's founder (Herbert Quandt) have been largely forgotten.
The article is about European sales though. I know some European people are obsessed with American politics as if there was nothing worth discussing that's European, but the number of people who knows and cares about whatever happened at Nancy Pelosi's house, then knows what Elon had to say about that, then deciding it's so egregious that they can't buy a Tesla anymore it's probably single digits.
"Yes, they do," was my first thought upon seeing the article title.
On Windows I use whisper-standalone-win: https://github.com/Purfview/whisper-standalone-win

It has a few customization features that are nice: https://github.com/Purfview/whisper-standalone-win/discussio...

Works miles better than plain faster-whisper, in my experience. Not sure if there's wildcard support but that's easily scripted.

That's the thing. Many of these work in mice because mice have such a short lifespan. Whereas if they lived much longer, they'd die from the side effects.
I don't know if it's similar, only because I don't really use Google products. You can ask the HomePod to turn on the Apple TV and play something, or to read out your messages (depending on your settings and whatnot). I don't really have an issue with it doing anything but playing music. I use it for HomeKit controls constantly, and love my HomePod mini's.

>general purpose cross-platform application UI development

because of the immediate mode paradigm it's not really a general purpose framework. The constant redrawing is just a complete resource hog in non real-time applications. The reason other graphics frameworks retain internal state (which Imgui exactly avoids) is to only redraw components when necessary. In theory you could write yourself some sort of widget state manager on top of it but then you've just reinvented react or Qt or what have you.

It's so popular in games and real time visualization because that's one of the domains where you redraw constantly anyway.

Personally, I decided to not to buy a Tesla because of how he over hyped self driving and then tried to weasel out by calling the system ‘full self driving’ when it’s clearly not. It doesn’t mean the cars are actually crap, but the company just came off as hella sketchy. Like how they didn’t care about panel gaps or similar issues because people were buying cars sight unseen, just gives this cheap vibe without actually hitting that price point.

It’s not that uncommon for people to quietly boycott companies. My mother refuses to get Starlink because of Musk.
Surely the dealers leasing those vehicles are factoring cost of maintenance into the lease, no?
Tesla has a market cap twice what Toyota does. They have a P/E ratio over 60, vs about 7 for Toyota. Clearly the market thinks Tesla's future is not as a car company, because compared to literally every other car manufacturer they are wildly overvalued.

My personal opinion is that TSLA has only one direction to go for a while. Down. Nothing about the business supports the market optimism. Not that I'm going to run out and short the stock, mind you, that old adage about how long the market can stay irrational seems very on point in this case.
Typing Four Characters Crashes the iPhone
Mercedes is taking legal liability for their L3 system. That's better than Tesla

GM's supercruise allows safe hands free driving as a L2 system. That's better than Tesla

Waymo is operating a true L4 system in multiple markets. That's better than Tesla.

Tesla has a better than average L2 system in autopilot. They have a downright dangerous L2 system in FSD that through its very design encourages unsafe driving habits. It lulls drivers into a false sense of security, but FSD can still hand control to the driver at the very last moment when they are unprepared to safely operate a vehicle.

Research has shown the L2 systems that border on L3 capability are dangerous, which is why all of the competition is staying well clear of that design and yet Tesla is forging ahead. There are times when going against the grain is a path to innovation, like Tesla using thousands of small cells to deliver viable BEVs. Or SpaceX using fast iteration on cheap reusable rockets. This isn't one of those cases as research has shown this pathway is not just non-viable, it's a safety risks to the public. There is a reason everyone else is working on L3 and L4 and developing it under carefully controlled testing conditions and methodologies. Tesla just slaps 'beta' on it and sends 4000 lbs of steel out hoping it doesn't run anyone over. When SpaceX rockets blow up during testing no one gets hurt. That is not true of FSD development.

I love my Tesla, but FSD is dangerous and the marketing was well into scam territory. There is a reason NHTSA and the FTC both have gotten involved.
What's the joke here? There are like a dozen Fidelity trusts on the list.

Edit: my Karma been flapping on this one (bot-monitor, and I'm on vacation).

Is the joke because of Puritanical ideals and Twitter don't get along?

Really, as others have said, Fidelity is in like everything. And, loads of big companies have all kinds of trusts. I don't see the perfect fit.

But if there is a joke I can share with my friends that work at Fidelity I'd like to know - more than just "haha bad investment"
99% of eligible buyers don’t care one way or another. As big as it may seem to you, the US neoliberal bubble is not really that large. That’s why Tesla sold 1.81M cars last year. It is a formidable number no matter how you look at it.
Most of the EV market are people who find his politics disagreeable. He’s not doing his duty to shareholders by driving them away, especially for such pointlessly offensive things which have nothing to do with the business. This is why you almost certainly know nothing about the views of the CEOs of any other car company, and why Musk is almost certain to face lawsuits after the inevitable decline - a meme stock can’t last forever, and the fundamentals don’t support the current valuation at all.
Thanks! This is helpful. It seems like I took an overly-simplistic explanation of the small scale and took it too literally. There's still a nugget of truth to the idea that our perceptions only partially tell us what the universe is really like, but it's not as disturbing as my initial thought that I was somehow observing something ghost-like as if it were solid.
BMW has not abandoned it. i3 was a cool cheap car, with a carbon fiber cell. It was ugly as hell, but cool tech.

BMW platforms now are both for ICE and EV, but "Neue klasse" that will start to arrive soon is a from-scratch, new, electric only platform. That will really make the cars more spacious. The sportiest platform is supposedly architected for 1350 hp, so it will be interesting to see if BMW will take up the lap time fight with Porsche. That would be interesting.
yes, all the time. It's more of an issue of no runtime type safety, which makes it a poor choice for many backend projects. There are workarounds, but it's silly when there are many better alternatives.
Some of us just can't return to the C programming language. We never left it.

Names are fuzzy things, and what you write on a piece of paper can change. What's on your ID can change over time too.

I've known people who couldn't get their name into the system (no last name), couldn't fit their names into the system (two last names, no hyphen), changed family name (spouses), change first name, put in a different first name (sometimes Timothy, sometimes Tim), their name didn't _fit_ in the field (too many characters, unexpected character encoding), trans people.

This should be expected by computer systems, and expected by staff.
I think it has more to do with Tesla being the modern EV pioneer. They were the only game it town for a while, and had the best charging network. However, there have been a lot of stories about build quality issues for years.

As the established automaker move into the market and charging is standardized, it would stand to reason that Tesla would suffer, as people see they can get higher build quality from experienced brands. The cool-factor of Tesla also starts to wear off when they are everywhere. Last time I was in a place I needed to Uber a lot, 4 of the 5 riders were in Teslas.

Do you already have a background as a dev?

As someone who's run in software startup circles on the customer support side for years, I couldn't figure out how to make it do anything. Took several minutes even to notice the "save and preview" button to get my "edit this text" edit to work on the code editor. I first tried the "refresh" button on the preview, after realizing it didn't update automatically, but most of the text for the correct button wasn't visible.

Then, when it asked me to make a "val" that did something, I tried looking at the templates, hoping to figure out what they even mean by "a val." The page loaded halfway down the screen and wouldn't scroll, so I gave up and went back to the site to see if the About page would tell me anything useful.

I ended up back here hoping someone in the comments had figured it out, only to find that for some people, it clearly is entirely intuitive, which makes me think the whole platform is just for "other people," people not like me in some important way I haven't identified yet, even though it sounded like it was targeting people who have ideas for projects but don't know how to build them themselves.
Fog is a great analogy here and indeed much less unnerving. I think what I mean is that I'm unnerved by the fact that our perception only gives us a partial view on what really makes up the universe.
When you go over the cap everything turns off, otherwise, what’s the point?

Totally. I was there, porting a FoxPro DOS app to Visual FoxPro and one of the biggest fights with the boss was about why I was adding multiple windows in the app.

And I remember that the mouse was something that confused users.

And the joke about using the CD drawer to put the coffee there? I see it.

Yet, all those users (school managers and a lot of old ladies) get it anyway.
Any % each of those owners actually own? For me that would be the most important aspect of ownership
Show HN: I'm building an app where you can validate your startup ideas
I've launched two other startups this year, without validating the idea or requesting feedback on them. Got 0 interest as a result, they failed flat on their face.

This experience led me to learn more about startup product validation, but I had a problem: where do I find the users of my product and how can I contact them?

Why shouldn't this be easy, why not have a centralized platform that can connect the person with the idea with potential users and get validation before committing.

The startup is called PitchPeers. It's work in progress, but you can join the waitlist.

If you have any feedback, I would love to hear it. Thanks!
