I usually remote dev on an instance in a VPC because of crap like this. If you like terrible ideas (I don't use this except for debugging IAM stuff, occasionally), you can use the IMDS like you were an AWS instance by giving a local loopback device the link-local ipv4 address 169.254.169.254/32 and binding traffic on the instance's 169.254.169.254/32 port 80 to your lo's port 80, and a local AWS SDK will use the IAM instance profile of the instance you're connected to. I'll repeat, this is not a good idea.
For those who were as lost down the [garden path](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Garden-path_sentence) as I was:

There are some domains. The domains were pointed at Z-Library. Some of those domains are expired or had previously been seized.

There is an order. The order is to block sites used for piracy. The order was produced by a French court. The order targets the domains.

The following things are *not* what the headline is discussing:

- There is a site for French pirates

- There is a pirate site based in France

- The French pirate site (either version) is blocking anything

- There are expired order targets

- The order targets (expired or not) seized Z-Library domains
> but I think it started as something way more manageable than what it has become.

Hard disagree here. Rust team is continuously making the language easier to work with by removing limitations and making features more orthogonal. A notable example is non lexical lifetimes, impl Trait in return position or async traits. Also they have removed some features eg before it went 1.0, it even had GCed references built in with special syntax.
You're making a terrible mistake here

That's clear, my question is why the +e is inside the loop and thus is set at each iteration, while the -e is outside it and thus is set only once at the end.
What?

HTTP is just a protocol. Stateful or stateless is orthogonal. HTTP is both and neither.

Also, HTTP has no concept of files (in general), only resources. Files can be resources! Resources are not files.

I’ve had firsthand experience of a lightning strike hitting some gear that I maintained…

My parent’s house got hit right on the TV antenna, which was connected via coax down the the booster/splitter unit in comms cupboard … then somehow it got onto the nearby network patch panel and fried every wired ethernet controller attached to the network, including those built into switch ports, APs, etc. In the network switch, the current destroyed the device’s power supply too, as it was trying to get to ground I guess.

Still a bit of a mystery how it got from the coax to the cat5. maybe a close parallel run the electricians put in somewhere ?

Total network refit required, but thankfully there were no wired computers on site… I can imagine storage devices wouldn’t have fared very well.

Power strips make this easier of course, but every outlet usually has two plugs and most* of the time they are wired together. You just need to plug into the other plug.

* In case they are split for whatever reason (switched plug, different circuit) whatever, just take off the faceplate, pull out the outlet, and now you have direct access to the screw terminals and copper wiring on the outlet. You could wire into the plug using the second set of terminals or via the other connection method (one being the screw terminals, the other being the "insert into the hole" depending on which is used) and take the whole outlet with you.

> The only reasons to turn your hard drives off are to save power, reduce noise, or transport them.

One reason some of my drives get powered down 99+% of the time is that its a way to guard against the whole network getting cryptolockered. i have a weekly backup run by a script that powers up a pair of raid1 usb drives, does and incremental no-delete backup, then unmounts and powers them back down again. Even in a busy week theyre rarely running for more than an hour or two. I'd have to get unlucky enough to not have the powerup script detect being cryptolockered (it checks md5 hashes of a few "canary files") and powering up the bav=ckup drives anyway. I figure that's a worthwhile reason to spin them down weekly...

>I'm starting this comment with the letter I. I don't know who decided that we needed a symbol for that particularly combination of sounds, or why they decided it would sometimes look like a vertical line with optional top and bottom bars and other times look like a shorter vertical line with a dot over it. That all seems incredibly arbitrary. In fact, every symbol I'm using to express this idea is incredibly arbitrary.

We simply differ extremely on this, and it’s fine. Let me explain, though.

On the symbolic level, "my mind" will be eager to know where the symbols come from, what are the proposed histories of their formation through time. It’s a great way to gain completely unrelated knowledge. That is, unrelated in a discipline domain driven manner. Sometime it does come with some additional insights on the domain itself, or at least goes back to some references to the domain itself. For example the equal symbol (=) was selected because "nothing is more equal than two parallels lines".

On the representational level, the term "I" can be a very misleading one. Striving to supersede it completely in all utterances is an interesting challenge, one that can open original perspective compared to the most mundane ones. Seeking to put apart the "current conscious attention", which can detach itself from all the illusions that that often entangled in the term "I", is a rich and profound experience. For casual chitchat, it’s still nice to use "I", which can be a quick efficient way to make others aware that there are some emotions and personal engagement put at play in the exchange.

> I would much rather write "A⇒B" than "A implies B" 100 times on a page.

Wouldn’t it be even much better to do none of this? In Ruby `100.times do puts 'cause implies consequence' end` is valid code that will do that without any painful effort to make the aimed page.

If it’s too painful to produce the specimen that is aimed, the way it’s produced is to be reconsidered more importantly than the usability of the aimed specimen.

>using a symbol reinforces that we're referring to a strict mathematical interpretation and not the vagaries of ambiguous English

Using terse scriptural symbols per se doesn’t prevent to go into esoteric non-sense. And anything that can be expressed in graphical symbols can just as well and as clearly expressed in any spontaneous language if given the same careful attention.

It’s not like having the option to use terse scriptural symbols is always necessarily bad. It’s fine to have options and be aware of tradeoffs we are using one or the other. Going back to the previous Ruby snippet, `puts "cause implies consequence\n" * 100` works just as well, and might be more convenient to type in an interactive console, while the previous version might be a wiser selection to integrate in a large code base which strive to keep maintainability at its highest level.
Unless you have pinned the exact version numbers in requirements.txt (which you should) or kept you conda/venv..etc around it might be hard. I know at this stage this would be too much compared to what we are talking about regarding python scripts but non-python dependencies are real painful.

I know that this is probably beyond bash scripting vs python scripting but I was just replying to how 6 months project can have problems.

Also not a 6 months scale but the python standard library definitely changes and I would take bash anytime if I have to use venv for running util scripts.

Edit: When python3.8 removed 'time.clock()' it was annoying to change that. I know that it was deprecated since 3.3 (as I remember) but this is the example I have in mind now. But probably it was before I was born that people using

start=$(date +%s%N)

end=$(date +%s%N)

Oh were it that easy. While, absolutely, you could not gain weight with a calorie deficit, a targeted calorie deficit alone is not a direct path to loosing weight. If what you eat goes straight to fat (sugar, highly processed foods etc), you’ll still be lacking immediately available sugars to fuel your day. Cue your body slowing down the metabolism while resisting using the fat reserves. What you say is true (and, per personal experience, even the discomfort might not be there) only if the food eaten is of high quality and varied.

I think you mean close to the average water usage of ~1300 European households, as 1 cubic meter of water = 1000L.
Why do we read the news? (2011)
So if you’d watch the movie you’d learn that you won’t burn much more calories when you start exercising, perhaps at first but the body rebalances until it’s back on budget. Your body keeps that, they say for some evolutionary reason, very constant.

It sounds paradoxical but I know people struggling with their weight and to them it must sounds like a very good explanation.

So perhaps first change your diet and don’t exercise? It’s less healthy but it’s more effective for weightloss.

I have multiple 5tb external disks attached to my main tower that (among other things) serves up Plex content. I switch each one out every year, for equivalent of about a hundred dollars each. I try and find a compromise between the amount of read requests and availability for these disks, but in the end, if they're read often enough, they die soon enough.

What killed the last one was an experiment with installing Emby. Like many similar systems, it bewilderingly has no rate-limiting function, and will thrash a disk to within an inch of its life in order to index it. And that was the most recent thing that killed one of my external Plex drives, with multiple series and movies on it.

So yes, just keep refreshing the media, at reasonable intervals.

PS Yes, I know this is a poor method of content storage. NAS is looming up for me one of these days.

While good, those ideas will all increase costs.

Basically, in order to stay relevant, Open AI and others are just going to do more meta trainings of smaller LLMs over LLMS, so you are going to get some specialized LLMS that do good for certain things, but you aren't going to see any massive improvement in functionality until someone fundamentally rethinks architecture down to the core.

As an LLM-skeptic, I still think this is too pessimistic as an outlook for the future. I do think there is a good chance that LLMs as they exist will not change anything nearly as significantly as the hype is predicting. But I think there is scope for the technology, if it continues developing, to significantly help people.

The most interesting and clear AI-based product I can imagine is a true personal assistant, that can autonomously handle tasks like "book me a barber's appointment this week" (while taking into account my work days, my meetings, my other personal appointments, etc) or "I want to meet up with Joe, Susan, and Mary for a nice dinner, book us a table" (and your personal assistant would sync up with their personal assistants, or with themselves directly if they don't have one, to arrange this, and suggest some possible venues and so on). And it would help remind you of important upcoming events, help organize your shopping and so on. And of course, it would do all of this semi-interactively ("The best slot I'm seeing for your barber appointment would be on Tuesday at 3 PM, but you have that call with Andrew, can that be moved?").

All of these things seem relatively doable in principle, with existing technologies, as long as AIs improve on their reasoning skills and someone spends the time and effort to connect a single AI to several core technologies (in this case, email, calendars, web search, maybe some reservation apps, and some camera apps to help recognize various things).
The word “loophole” usually means a bypass of a law/rule in its spirit due to its language, thus leading to a void / gray area of enforcement that is beneficial to the exploiter.

I say that because everytime the topic of “closing a loophole” comes up, HNers act like it’s metaphysically impossible. But if you just think a little bit more, you’d realize that the existence of a loophole shows that the said law is specifically NOT covering the edge cases, but is covering the general cases without problems. Hence, fixing it would most likely affect the exploited case, not the beneficial case.

I cook chicken and turkey and any other kind of meat (after removing all bones) in a closed glass vessel, in a microwave oven, without adding anything to the raw meat (i.e. no oil), except salt and spices.

This produces very tasty meat, which is very similar to roasted meat, except for no or minimal browning.

This method produces no particulate pollution and it does not require any kind of ventilation in the kitchen.
CSS as a language is different from the style attributes that you can insert into `style=`, mainly because it's a lot more powerful. You can do things like set a background colour on hover, or apply a style only to the first child element of a parent. None of that is possible with the style attribute.

This is also the key difference between conventional CSS classes and Tailwind - it acts less like a set of predetermined classes, and more like a DSL for directly writing CSS inline in the "class" attribute. The result is arguably less reasonable than directly writing CSS, but on the other hand, it's a lot less boilerplate.

In my experience, it really clicks if you write a lot of components, in which case you've already got a way to reuse your code, and so tailwind fits in really nicely with that. If you're mainly writing whole-page styling, then Tailwind usually results in a lot of repetition and doesn't produce much better results than writing everything in CSS in the first place.
