Yeah. But Reddit has been drifting in this direction for a long time, the LLM Bots have just accelerated it. Long ago it used to be the place to go for authentic discussion, now it all just feels like one big spammy botfest.

They're correct that the RFC technically requires registration, and looking through the existing list of contact information for registrations I'd be likewise intimidated to attempt to register something that's experimental.
The optimization solver landscape changes slow enough that a 5 year old overview it is still very relevant. However, in recent years the open source solver HiGHS (https://highs.dev/) has emerged and even surpassed the older open source solvers.
This demo is lame and it isn't really providing much value. Hopefully it is just the beginning, but it currently isn't impressive.
To me, a SRE is *both* a sysadmin AND a programmer, developer, whatever you want to call it. It's a logical-and, not an XOR.
By sysadmin, I mean "runs a mean Unix box, including fixing things and diving deeply when they break", and by the programmer/whatever part of it, I mean "makes stuff come into existence that wasn't there before".

The main issue i see with that is the companies usually aren't willing to advertise and pay SRE salaries for actual SRE skills.

The skillset described in the above quotes are essentially the skills of an SWE and of a Sysadmin. So essentially you're doing two jobs for one salary.

There are people capable of doing two jobs, but you won't find them until you start advertising and paying actual-SRE salaries.
Show HN: Redefining Issue Tracking: Introducing Supabugs
Hey everyone! I'm excited to introduce you to Supabugs, our new SaaS that's going to revolutionize how you handle issue tracking.

We built Supabugs because, frankly, most issue trackers out there are a pain to use. They're often overcomplicated and just don't mesh with how modern teams work. So we decided to change that.

Now, here's some exciting news right off the bat: Supabugs is free for up to 5 users. Yes, you heard that right - free! We wanted to make sure that small teams and startups can benefit from great issue tracking without breaking the bank.

So what makes Supabugs special? Let me break it down:

It's super user-friendly. You don't need to be a tech wizard to figure it out. Even your non-tech savvy clients can report bugs without breaking a sweat.

It's customizable. You can tweak issue types, priorities, severities, statuses and their colors - pretty much everything to fit your workflow.

It's API-first. This means you can report bugs automatically from your apps. No more manual data entry headaches.

Sharing is a breeze. Want to loop in a client? Just send them a link, and they can view issues without the risk of messing anything up.

We've got a cool widget. Just two lines of code on your site, and your users can report bugs directly.

Our webhook feature is awesome. You can send all important events to your favorite platforms like Slack, Discord, or Telegram with just a few clicks. New issue? Status change? You're instantly in the loop.

We created Supabugs because we've been in your shoes. We know the frustrations of issue tracking, and we wanted to build something that actually makes your life easier.

Whether you're a solo developer, a startup, or a growing company, Supabugs is designed to scale with you. And remember, it's free for up to 5 users, so there's no reason not to give it a shot!

Ready to say goodbye to clunky systems and hello to smooth, efficient bug tracking? Head over to our website and start your free trial today.

No credit card required for up to 5 users!

I wonder if this could be avoided by boarding the plane from the rear.
Being denied privileges if one does not do something is not the same as forcing someone to do something. I get many privileges for being employed, I'm not forced to be employed.

I also have to work to afford soap. That does not make me a slave.
Note that I said mindset not skillset.

I have zero doubt that I could do an Ops job well, what I can’t do is switch between writing business logic and maintaining servers at the drop of a hat. Similar to how I can’t go from QA to engineer without a context switch/penalty.

As I said elsewhere in this thread if I could clone myself and do both roles I would in an instant. But if I have to pick one I’d pick writing code (as my primary thing), not saying that Ops doesn’t write code, just not the same type of code.
Offshore wind has always been allowed.

Onshore wind was technically allowed but in practice the rules were so restrictive that it was very difficult to get any projects approved. So yes technically not a ban, but it was a de facto ban.

> To me the main contributing factors to power efficiency are the architecture

Also is this really true?
Intel doesn’t have an answer for ARM (including Apple Silicon), and NVIDIA in traditional desktop and portable computing form factors much less phones and tablets.

Not to mention a high performance intel chip today requires liquid cooling. That was a niche product for enthusiasts going more mainstream simply due to intel failing to innovate out of this situation.
At our organization, a bunch of devs which were interested in improving/automating infrastructure split into a separate DevOps team. They first called themselves DevOps, then renamed themselves to SRE, then again to Production. Every time they changed their name they prepared presentations for the whole company explaining the name change and why the previous name wasn't correct after all. Everyone is still confused and always forgets what's their current official name.

Other than that, there's also:

- a separate IT department which manages networks, telephony and access

- the ones who push people to update software/OS is InfoSec, a separate team

- ordinary developers can make changes to k8s/grafana/Prometheus configs for their services, if it's reviewed by Production as the owners (they're understaffed compared to the multiple dev teams)

- there's also the "Core" team which deals with the microservice platform on top of bare infrastructure (how microservices should communicate, etc.)

Often the lines are blurred and it's not always clear who you call if you have a problem.
I assume you mean the FTC Act. Indeed it gives broad authority, but it isn’t unlimited.

FTC says “[..] it is an unfair method of competition—and therefore a violation of section 5” in their rule.

Indeed, the act gives them the ability to regulate unfair practices, but it’s not clear that this is unfair. Is it unfair if I get paid a good salary in return for not working for competitors? If they pay me for the years I can’t work after resigning, I would very much say no. If they don’t pay me for those years, I would say it could be seen as being unfair.
But the rule is a blanket ban on all noncompetes essentially, even for senior executives! (Unless I’m reading it wrong.)

I’m for banning noncompetes, but I don’t think you can reasonably argue that the FTC has this ability.

I do think they could ban the subset that are clearly unfair without any issues FWIW, and I do hope they switch to this direction.
which points to a absurdity of s0, it seems to consistently miss or have bugs in things I would expect to be core aspects like

- monitoring if power is unpluged

- monitoring if battery level sings below threshold

- monitor CPU temperature

and take appropriate actions, like transitioning to "classical" S3 or better hybrid S3

it's totally a misterious for me how that doesn't work well even 10 years later

I mean bugs which idk. unexpectedly drain a bit more battery etc. are to be expected but I would expect the UEFI to be like "uh that's too much CPU heat lets stop here", "uh that's draining the batter too fast let's stop", "uh only 40% batter better not even try anything". And sure you want hello to work even with <40% battery but that's if its enabled, which often it isn't.

How to migrate off EIP on EC2?
Elastic IPs (EIPs) now come with charges, and AWS also limits accounts to a maximum of five by default, with requests for quota increases often being rejected.

Currently, to run an EC2 instance under a custom domain, there are two main approaches:

A Record (Route53) -> EIP -> EC2: This method uses a paid Elastic IP, which is subject to the strict quota (max 5 by default). It works but becomes costly if managing multiple projects.

CName Record (Route53) -> Dynamic IP Service URL (e.g., No-IP) -> EC2’s non-static IP: This involves updating the IP dynamically via a script with each deployment. It's more affordable, removes the IP limit, but may cause some downtime during updates.

Are there any other options that could be considered? Hosting small-scale projects on AWS has become more difficult and expensive over time. While $5/month for Option 1 may seem manageable, costs quickly add up when running 10-20 projects. Even if you're willing to pay, the limit on IPs can be restrictive if AWS doesn’t approve an increase in quotas.

About Me: I am an IT specialist of just over 30 years who has spent years dealing with the complex issues surrounding norms, standards and frameworks, and who has actually worked with strategic IT my entire working life to date. I am currently in the process of reorienting myself a little, moving away from strategic IT and looking for opportunities in the SQL area to get more in touch with development again. Standards in which I am specialized: ISO 27001, TISAX, DORA, China Sox, IT-Grundschutz. This could perhaps be an interesting combination with SQL and databases (e.g. building special authorization concepts or data queries).
It's still two factors regardless of storage. Say you accidentally paste your password into the wrong field and post it on a forum. Whoever gets that still needs the second factor.

Sure, if your password vault gets breached then everything is exposed but that's extremely unlikely and you have a lot of work to do in that event regardless. It's an inherent risk to using a password manager: everything is centralized so it's a valuable target.
Uhm, like this one https://www.amazon.com/ELECOM-Pencil-Feel-Compatible-Scratch... ?
“Placebo” isn’t a mechanistic explanation, it is jargon to label what you are observing- confusing labels with understanding is a trap that prevents investigation.

Also, the “resolution” at the end that one might (meaninglessly) apply the word placebo to isn’t the interesting part IMO. What is interesting is seeing where our understanding of the human brain fits/predicts or fails to fit experiences like this.
With all the talk of rising oceans... Taking some sea water out might be a good thing ;)
I think Steve might have forgotten (so many helper functions...), but Rust's slices have a `copy_within`[1] function for exactly this scenario:

fn main() {
let mut buf: [u8; 16] = *b"D04GOKUD09OVER90";

buf.copy_within(7..16, 0);

println!("{:?}", buf);
}

It does only support types that are trivially copyable, but it's implemented exactly you'd expect: bounds checking then memcopy handling overlap.

The fact that our experiences are not the same should tell us something.
Is this suitable for reading technical pdf textbooks (math, programming, etc)? Last I checked the screen size was smaller than A4 and ReMarkable had a focus on writing and taking notes rather than displaying books...

So any suggestions here?
Plang and similar logic languages are compelling when combined with AI large language models plus anti-fragile programming techniques. The article's example shows goal-driven code that knows how to ask the LLM for how to improve the implementations, and also the goal planning.

However, Plang is unusual because it requires up-front payment to try. For example, the main website says " On first build you will be ask to pre-purchase credits" and "Each code line incurs usually between $0.005 - $0.035 fee via LLM". I respect developers who ask for money. At the same time, it would be great to have a lower-quality local-first way to try Plang.

There are far more cities with Dem mayors than Republican mayors, so comparing raw counts is pretty meaningless. (Similar to counting comparing total homicide instead of per capita.) There are 10 Republican mayors amongst the 50 largest cities, and furthermore, these are heavily concentrated at the low end.

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_mayors_of_the_50_lar...

It turns out the relationship between crime and population is non linear, and that nonlinearity is also true outside of the US and it's political context.

https://crimesciencejournal.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.11...

So, what you're seeing is bigger cities with higher per capita rates due to the underlying relationship between population density and crime. It also happens to be the case that in the US, urban areas strongly prefer Democratic mayors.
I love my Remarkable, it forces me to stay in creativity mode without jumping to the internet since it doesn't have a browser. That being said, the inability to simply put your own templates in the machine and have them persist through and update is so close to being a showstopper for me that I am not sure I would consider buying a new one.
The RM2 template manager is great, but you have to update your templates after every firmware update and I hate that with a passion!
Remarkable is very open source friendly and you can ssh into it from the get go.

I'm really looking forward to installing Zed on this thing!
That is frequently enough, but for a lot of folks who are fans of Remarkable, the preference is based on one or more of these three:

(1) e-ink for both paper-like visual texture (the pixels are not square) and eye comfort (impossible with traditional screens)

(2) single-purpose note-taking without distractions (although some hate that)

(3) paperlike haptic feel (the only thing that can be addressed by screen cover on an ipad)
Dear god.

Do you understand what you're advocating for? You're advocating for literal lawlessness. For anarchy. For giving the government absolute power.

Given that government abuses non-absolute power you can bet that when they get absolute power it'll take about a second to turn any country into Putin's Russia.
It's the same everywhere I look, the dead internet theory is in full effect.

Instagram and twitter are particularly bad too, overall I never know if something was posted by a 70 IQ politically brainwashed person, a troll, a 11 years old kid or a bot, it's virtually impossible to tell anymore
Not that trash Kaleido faux-color e-ink, very nice.

This may be the first legitimate color e-ink tablet with good (EMR; see: S-Pen, Wacom, old style Thinkpad) pen input.
Yes they exist and they work. However to build them requires stringent regulations to make them a viable cost solution.
If it is ok to blow out the toxic smoke the high end solution will not be built.
The best thing is still avoiding waste.
Paper texture is not the same as e-ink. The latter retains state when power is removed.
I do not. And won’t get one just for this hut as I’ve considered it here & there I’ll have to keep this in mind!

As someone who used to work at Microsoft, this is spot on. The sheer amount of arrogance coming from (some of) my peers who worked there was incredible.

Microsoft decides for you how you would like to use your computer. If you don't agree, use Linux. Or Mac, but Apple is really no better than Microsoft with regard to arrogance.

Who's going to do that? Most of the time, when I use my Yubikey, I'm using it in a text field in a website.

So all an attacker needs to do is swap my Yubikey with a fried one. Maybe someone will figure it out if they're tracking the numbers written on the outside.
I get it why this analogy is so tempting. If we consider the visible wavelengths being from 380nm to 780nm, that’s almost precisely one octave. If we could see the “ultraviolet octave”, and/or the “infrared octave”, would it resemble a rainbow? Would be neat if it did. When I was a kid, I wondered if violet and red were actually the same color, somehow. To me personally it feels like red and violet have much more in common than blue and green, for instance.

If you're going to contend that solitary confinement is "denial of privileges" rather than a punishment designed to compel labor, then we just aren't going to agree and I don't see much point continuing. "Do this work, or I will take an action that is costly to me in order to worsen your life" is forced labor in any definition I can come up with.

You are not required to work one, specific job that can be changed at a moment's notice without your consent to afford soap. Almost any work one might do in the market economy is sufficient to pay for basic hygiene products for one person.
I mean, it’s very easy to prove.
I read arxiv content on the Remarkable 2 and I am satisfied. The reader auto-removes the white margins, so the smaller screen is not a problem. The zoom functionality is snappy for an e-ink device from 3 years ago (slow by modern standards). The quick-view thumbnails used to scroll through far-away pages is sufficient for my workflow. Generally I am very happy with the device for consuming static academic PDFs.
This uses the E Ink Gallery 3 display, of which you can find many reviews online.
That is the only thing I use mine for these days. Screen size is fine for that.

I miss an API to their cloud storage. It is simply a dealbreaker that it aims to help avoiding distractions but leaves no room for building an automated workflow around it.
No, but if the air is saturated with H2O then sweating doesn't work. Swamp coolers are useful up to a point; ideally they bring down the temperature until you don't sweat. If they can't, and saturate the air instead, then they're worse than nothing.
E-ink is not "paper feel". It's a super low-power display, it only consumes power when the content on it changes. Since it works by moving around physical pigment molecules inside little cells, the screen will continue showing the last thing that you put on it literally forever while consuming no power.

I have an e-ink tablet, the Boox Note Air 3 C, when I use it as an ereader or notetaker the battery lasts for weeks. A little less when I use it for web browsing or apps that change the content on the screen a lot.
