The last versions of KDE Plasma 5 offered tiling windows as an option, and it could be configured to be used only with the keyboard, like a tiling WM. However it was not so polished (I was waiting it to be more usable) and I kept my KDE + XMonad configuration.

However, after Plasma 6 that option was missing, and I my KDE + XMonad setup doesn't work anymore (perhaps I need to adapt it but I didn't have time to do that so far). Also, Wayland doesn't help: using a desktop environment with other window manager only works on X11.

Does someone know what happened to tiling on Plasma 6?
KDE also has extensive keyboard shortcuts for window management (among other things) but most of them are not set by default.

Alternatively, we adjust the tax code to reflect the instinct that people should deserve to keep a larger percentage of money when they actually worked to earn it, and that income that's essentially free to people who already have lots of money should maybe be taxed at a higher rate.

I realize this is a spicy take, but we've really got to get away from this thing where we advantage passive income for wealthy landowners. It didn't work out well for society in enlightenment-era France, it didn't work out well in Victorian England, it didn't work out well in Tsarist Russia, and I'm not convinced that removing birthright qualifications and primogeniture makes all that much more equitable in the modern USA than it did in any of those periods that we tend to look back on as being indefensibly elitist.

It is not. SG&E [1] includes a lot of things, including all labor costs (all the salaries for all the employees) and all rent.

As an example, Novo Nordisk, the maker of Ozempic, has annual operating expenses of about $20 billion and in 2023 launched an advertising campaign for Ozempic/Wegovy of a bit less than $0.5 billion/year.

I consider myself on the higher end of bandwidth consumption, but it's challenging to see myself ever saturating a 7Gb link. I've been struggling to get 10G working in my house -- 2.5Gb sort-of works, but there's just so much equipment to upgrade in the meantime. I had to get a fibre link installed just to connect two parts of my network together and doing that as a regular-joe consumer is practically impossible.

I wonder if they are counting on the fact that it's practically un-saturable as a home user.

Show HN: Speech to Calories (just speak to log your calories automatically)
I started this as a fasting tracker app, but then I realized I was using ChatGPT a lot for tracking my meals. It was a bit inconvenient as I couldn't make edits easily, no dedicated UI etc.

There were a lot of apps that have photo to calories functionality (this app has it too) but I find it much less useful than speaking, as I already weigh my stuff and actually read the nutritional info. So I've made this app, and I'd appreciate any sort of feedback.
Woah, you are so right. I should try this out sometime
That it isn’t the same translation they read as children and that was used in movies.

It is not a particularly high-brow debate, as HP, unlike Dostoyevsky in en-world, is read by everyone. People usually concentrate on proper names. Rowling uses a lot of “meaningful” names like Snape, Sprout or Ravenclaw, and translator have a choice of adapting them or leaving them be. Either choice leaves somebody unhappy. The same problem was with LotR a generation before. (LotR broke through the iron curtain only in 90s).

When I read HP in original, I realised that the “proper” translation is also extremely bad. I don’t know what I should do when/if I have children. Either I’ll start working on my own translation during the pregnancy, or I’ll teach them English from the birth.

Oh it's much simpler and immediate than that: Trump wins and stops funding Ukraine, like he has already promised to dozens of times. That would instantly lead to the EU having to double their spending, which would certainly mean increased unrest within the EU and a whole lot of grudges towards the US.

And it wouldn't be the first time Trump specifically caused grudges. The US just giving up on the Iran deal has certainly already done the same. Not only was the EU also a signatory, but so were the UK, Germany and France individually. And then he moved the embassy to Jerusalem, which was also openly opposed by the three I've already mentioned. So now the EU has to second-guess every treaty the US signed, because apparently that signature means less than it used to mean.

But those two past actions would be nothing but a sentence in history books compared to at least a paragraph about the US cutting funding to Ukraine.

That sounds good, but it seems like every time I've seen body cam footage used, it's always had so much context removed as to make the police officers look as bad as possible.

>135. RealPage acknowledges that revenue protection “may seem counterintuitive to leasing needs.” In June 2023, a landlord complained to RealPage that “something in your model is broken” because “the pricing model is not lowering rents dramatically” despite the client’s high exposure during a busy summer leasing season. RealPage explained that, with revenue protection, “the model still sees the way to make more revenue is to lease fewer units at higher prices.” In other words, the model seeks to “raise rates to get the highest dollar value possible for the leases we can statistically achieve” and ignore those leases that the client wants but the model predicts, using competitors’ data, the client will not get

It doesn't seem like it would be that preferable to other package formats given how platform specific it is. The ZIP-based version of the TextBundle spec (aka TextPack) seems far more generally useful to me given the ubiquity of ZIP as a cross-platform package format.
I use xmonad for well over a decade now. I tried others because ghc is a pretty big payload to maintain on a gentoo system but always came back to xmonad. I invested quite a big time in my config (I dont speak haskell, so it was sometimes pretty hard) but I would say my general config is quite minimal:

3 displays. 9 workspaces, named. Pretty basic tiled layouts. Named "scratchpads" (basicially popups with fixed client/programms; like a fullscreen popup with my terminal emulator with a tmux session a semi transparent pavucontrol and clipboard manager/copyq).

Important: one hotkey to send the actual client to fullscreen (I have no idea why this feature seems to be a hard one when testing other tiling WMs).

Hotkeys for switching displays.

This seems (for me?) pretty basic needs but I found thats not easily reproducible with other tiling wms.

Some time ago I introduced my GF to a thinkpad with my xmonad config and she was within a hour absolutely able to use a multi monitor setup comfortable with her keyboard. She really liked it.

Valid concern, security and safety are essential for anything that can access a production system. We use k8s RBAC to ensure that the access is read-only, so even if the LLM hallucinates and tries to destroy something, it can't

As we will eventually move towards write-access, we're closely following the work in LLM safety. There has been some interesting work to use smaller models to evaluate tool calls/completions against a set of criteria to ensure safety

Ask HN: How do you handle users asking for freebies?
I have a consumer app which is introspection-related, hosted on the Play/App stores. It gets regular customers (~$6k MRR) but I also get a surprising amount of people emailing me privately asking for a free subscription. Because I am really worried about tarnishing my ratings on the stores, I usually give it to them for 6 months or so and ask them not to tell others I gave it for free. Also I do sometimes feel for their stories, but I want consistency in how I deal with users.
50% of the time there is no thank you or positive review given, and the rest of the time they are genuinely grateful. I'm aware this can't scale (unless I actually build some sort of concession system in the app, which I'm unlikely to do), but is giving freebies the right thing/neutral/a bad thing to do at relatively early stages of growing a user base?

You are arguing against the concept of "division of labor".

You are a few logical layers removed, but fundamentally that is at the heart of this. It isn't just about what you think can or can't be leveraged. Reducing waste in a centralized fashion is excellent because it will enable other waste to be reduced in a self reinforcing cycle as long as experts in their domain keep getting the benefits of other experts. The chip experts make better instructions, so the library experts make better software libs they add their 2% and now it is more than 4%, so the application experts can have 4% more theoughput and buy 4% fewer servers or spend way more than 4% less optimizing or whatever and add their 2% optimization and now we are at more than 6%, and the end users can do their business slightly better and so on in a chain that is all of society. Sometimes those gains are mututed. Sometimes that speed turns into error checking, power saving, more throughput, and every trying to do their best to do more with less.

It only really works because it isn't N:N, it's N:1:N, and it's aggressively sharded (you have to have a separate EU and US shard if you don't want one to have transatlantic latency, which is 50ms all on its own). While you can have a few thousand people in one place, the interactions are limited in ways which avoid N^2 blowups.

Ask HN: Should I quit my project and move on?
I’ve been working on a project called Expose Menu for the past few weeks. It’s basically a website that returns reviews that reference a specific menu item regarding a specific restaurant. I’m really close to being done but I’m being plagued by the thought that nobody will use it. Honestly, I don’t even know if I would—I’d have to see what the final product looks like. But building it out would require spending some money and a significant chunk of my time. And I really don’t want to build something no one wants - I’d die of embarrassment and I’d just be sad about wasting my time.

This is my first time doing something like this, I’d really appreciate any advice!
Looks neat, but what exactly makes it "serverless"? It's literally an application that you have to run on your server.

Edit: turns out (thankfully) that it's only the author of the article using that term. The project site (https://dokku.com/) is very descriptive.
Neat form factor, but no stylus support when you fold it down with a screen out? Students would love that. I'm pretty dubious of the longevity of such a complex looking mechanical hinge though.

Yes, this my first knee jerk reaction as well. Just because the fiber is cable of a speed does not mean that you will receive that speed. Unless you are trying to serve multiple devices simultaneous, there's very few things that will support that bandwidth.

For GNOME, the Tiling Shell extension works well for me. I've also used, and liked, gTile. Of course, with an extension there's always the danger that it will break between releases and/or the developer will get bored and stop maintaining it.

The nice thing about Tiling Shell is that it's not all-or-nothing tiling. It's tiling when I want it, otherwise just "normal".

COSMIC Desktop is promising, but has a lot of maturing to do.
The way for crowd strike to avoid their incident was adding a very basic (borderline trivial) step in the merge/release pipeline to make sure machines could still boot after running the to be deployed version.

That’s really not much overhead nor is it a novel or groundbreaking process. They chose not to do it or maybe were told about it but decided not to spend any engineering time on it.

This is negligence to me.
Wrong. My original wager would be a successful deployment, but sure that could be interpreted as a weasel word.

What I mean by successful is that the LLM can generate accurate (>80%) incident response reports and propose correct fixes.

They ditched the existing stuff which were handled by third party software and started implementing new tiling functionality from scratch. It's a good faith effort to embrace tiling natively but this change meant they caused all existing solutions to break without providing anywhere near the same functionality. Hopefully they or 3rd parties will fix this in the future.

>a house that cost $80k in 2012, that exact same house now costs $360k in 2024

I think this is making a similar mistake in sampling. Your baseline is a price that still hadn't recovered from the housing market crash of 2008-2010. I lived in Michigan during that time and I distinctly remember the ability to find reasonable homes for less than my annual salary. To be clear: I am not saying housing prices aren't inflated now, I'm just saying it probably isn't as bad as the author insinuates because they are cherry-picking their comparisons and also not controlling for important factors like home size. Houses built in the last decade are 40%-50% bigger than those of previous generations (although this trend may be reduced in more recent years as a response to increased construction cost).

>But the people here are holding Masters Degrees and student debt

I think this is a real driver of unaffordability, but not necessarily home prices. If all student loans were forgiven, I would expect home prices to increase (because people now have more money to pay for a home without a commensurate increase in supply). My opinion is that there are too many bad incentives in the housing market. Local municipalities prefer high property values because it increases tax revenue. Existing home owners like high housing prices because it makes them feel rich and gives them a revolving line of credit in home equity loans. When people have 70% of their net worth tied up in a single asset class, they are going to go to great lengths to protect it even if it screws other people over.

I think tiling is great for terminals, but not for the whole desktop (I don't want my web browser or video player to be resized because I open a new program).

So I use a "normal" floating environment (xfce, but could be another one), and I use Terminator in full screen enabled on a specific shortcut, so that I have tiled terminals.
This sounds like propaganda:

> RealPage helps tenants pay their rent on time with an innovative financial product, supercharged with AI, that allows tenants to break up their single monthly payment into two digital payments. This helps tenants manage their finances and even supports reporting to credit reporting agencies, allowing tenants to build credit history.

"supercharged with AI"? Did you copy and paste this from RealPage's website? What does AI do to allow splitting payments?

There's a very cogent argument to be made that this credit reporting is an abuse of the credit system for one very simple reason: rent/leasing is NOT a credit line. I have never, ever seen a residential rental or lease agreement that allows you payment in arrears. If you're paying upfront, you're not being extended credit by the landlord, so why should they be allowed to report this to the CRAs as such, not to mention, of course, any delinquencies.

> RealPage is a great help to property managers, but really shines when it comes to the tenant experience.

This literally sounds like astroturf, and not exactly subtle at that.

Also given that one of RP's design goals is "maximizing rental profitability", how does that benefit the "tenant experience"?
