I see more and more companies shutting down their web portals in favour of mobile apps.

At the company I work at the moment the customer base is 2-3% on web, rest is mobile. It's such an incredible waste of time and money to keep the portal functionality on par for such a low number, and I hope they shut it down soon.
we need this in all countries. In fact it's curious that this is not the first priority
Apple did nothing of the sort. NeXTStep was already old and established, then they had to add a whole classic compatibility API layer because developers balked and they had to change the UI to make it more classic Mac OS like. They only bought NeXT because they failed at building their own next-generation replacement for Mac OS at the time Microsoft succeeded with Windows NT.

That's not true at all.
Stripe is a no go. Period.
Don't misrepresent me. Bad as it is for forums to assume default US context on anything, it's worse for a blog to title itself "Shops can refuse to take cash even though it’s legal tender..." then lead "A [15-month old] post on Facebook with over 300 shares claims..." about a debunked old claim from the UK that wasn't apparently made in any noteworthy way in the first place. Then commenters here jump in to disagree that it doesn't work that way in the US, which is doubly irrelevant.

There is an incompatibility between title clarity and HN guidelines about keeping the original article title, and it gets worse the more vague or misleading that article title was (which is not the OP's fault). In such extreme cases we should probably editorialize the title with the missing bits to remove ambiguity. I haven't been active on HN too long but I believe this discussion has been revisited many times.
Make real tdraw is just amazing. Love it.
> the most advanced cheats

How do they work? I know that in a game (Red Dead Redemption 2, for example) cheaters have infinite health and so forth. How? The server is responsible for validating all actions performed by players to prevent cheating, such as verifying movement, health, ammunition, and other game variables. It is not supposed to accept health values sent by the client without verifying against expected game logic. The server is the authoritative source. It is not supposed to rely on the client for authoritative game state, and if it does, it is fundamentally and terribly flawed.
Another aspect are HSTS (HTTP Strict Transport Security) headers, which can extend to subdomains.

If your main web page is available at example.com, and the CMS starts sending HSTS headers, stuff on subdomain.example.com can suddenly break.
I had success in a project using Sapper, a precursor to SvelteKit, with using an early version of this called server routes. On server routes, you could define a JSON api which could also have its data statically exported.

On the other hand, I’ve seen server actions abused in large production apps leading to lots of sprawl when handling similar data patterns. Everything becomes an action and it becomes difficult to update the system cohesively or get data externally.

I do feel there could possibly be a bit more magic with Server Actions to generate actual API endpoints. I’m a fan of FastAPI’s handling of pulling path and body variables into an endpoint, typing the params and then accessing them in Next.js on the other hand feels more burdensome. I could very well just be not using it correctly.

To simplify admin cops could write you up a fixed fine then send your fine to IRS who will calculate your additional fine at the end of year...

Indeed.

It forces the question: What is the point of amateur astrophotography?

If you just want to admire the results, go to https://welcome.astrobin.com/ for photos that are better than most people will ever have time or budget to accomplish in a lifetime.

So if you want to do it yourself, the end result is not the point of doing it.

The process of doing it yourself is really the only point, to enjoy doing it. The journey is the destination in astrophotography.

Since these automatic telescope cameras bypass the human process they fail at delivering that enjoyment and they also fail at delivering the end result quality.

So what is the purpose?
Sure, it just depends why you go out there. I'm not saying never get an EV. But also - I don't mind levelling myself, looking for an object... and then spotting something fun only to discover it's something else. My Mk1 eyes are just fine for my Mk1 humanly needs.
I ran the demo on their own paper and it went off the rails on page 7. I’m not sure if it is related to the nearby LaTeX or if it is some token limit.
Not that it's well priced, but just because they're both "soy sauces", doesn't mean they are really comparable products intended to be used in a the same way while cooking. It's like the difference between an expensive olive oil you would use in a simple vinaigrette, eating with bread, or drizzling over a dish once it's cooked, and a cheaper neutral oil for sauteeing in the early steps of a recipe
They were cool, until you loaded them into a 4 cd autoloader and they got stuck. Not that I ever did that... :)
Ultimately, I don't disagree.

However, I also try to make it a habit to not blame people for not knowing something. This presents as a structural problem in that company: they needed to hire people who do know how to secure server code and put them into a position to do so. Blame the company and those who decided to save every last penny in personnel cost.
nice, that's awesome! I'm intimidated by the prospect of doing it but there's no reason I cant, just a matter of facing the challenge (and planning in detail). Are there any good guides/vids/etc. you followed or otherwise found useful? No worries if not, just figured I might as well ask!
Think of it like the difference between idly leafing through a book, versus studying a textbook as if your life depended on it - one is an inconsequential pastime, the other is an exhausting task made all the more stressful by its importance.

Emotional labor is dealing with other people’s emotions, not in the first sense described in the paragraph above, but in the second - paying close attention, thinking critically, interpreting what you see and hear and feel in an effort to help someone in some way. It’s shouldering their emotional burden, to some degree, to support them, as best you can - same as physical labor might be.
I have cat6 running to every room. Because most things need ethernet, wouldn't fibre just mean having switches throughout the house?

For example, I have some rooms with WiFi access points and things like scanners or Sonos speakers. Adding another PoE switch would be overkill.

I'd recommend cat6 that you can power if needed and fibre just where you think you'll need the speed.
Is that the engine exhaust on the right image? With the flames? Crazy...

1. The guy who owns the dealership doesn't get the credit card fee

2. If they charge you extra for using a credit card, they're breaking even

3. If they _don't_ charge you extra for using a credit card, they're paying 3% of the purchase cost to the credit card company (so, $1,000+)

So yes, it's a dick move to pay via credit card for any purchase in the thousands of dollars, if you have the option to pay by check or debit card. I always offer to pay by check if I know the money for the CC will come out of their pocket.
Isn't there a distortion in decision making in projects when you start sharing about progress and become dependent on opinion? Not all projects are created for the public.
Humans have never before been this high – spacewalk w no airlock
Because there is no airlock in the SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft used for the flight, the only way to perform a spacewalk is to let all the air out of the spacecraft, and then open one of the hatches. That requires all four crew members to wear spacesuits.
NASA and Soviet astronauts conducted spacewalks in a similar manner in the 1960s.

As the Crew Dragon swings around Earth in an elliptical orbit that swings as close as 120 miles to the surface and as high as 460 miles, Mr. Isaacman and Sarah Gillis, a SpaceX engineer, will exit the capsule for about 15 to 20 minutes each.

They will pass through the hatch at the top of the Crew Dragon with the help of a handrail that SpaceX has named Skywalker, moving around carefully and deliberately. The two will not be outside the spacecraft at the same time.

The other two crew members, Scott Poteet, a retired Air Force pilot and the mission’s pilot, and Anna Menon, another SpaceX engineer, will remain in the capsule to manage the umbilical cords that will feed the spacewalkers oxygen and power, and monitor the readings to make sure everything is proceeding properly.

After Mr. Isaacman and Ms. Gillis return inside and close the hatch, the inside of the capsule will be repressurized with oxygen and nitrogen.
The entire spacewalk, from letting out all the air to refilling a breathable atmosphere, is expected to take about two hours.
What I've heard from leadership at more than one company is that they choose a percentile of the market they want to pay and then set the compensation there. For example, they may say "we want to pay at the 75th percentile for SWEs with X experience in the Bay Area".

I certainly don't trust that this doesn't hold wages down overall, particularly in the boom hiring market we had until recently.
I’d say Ubiquiti is still the best pro-sumer for home networking. They’re expensive, but they really do have a quality and ease of integration/setup/use that just isn’t matched, even when you get to enterprise level (go setup a Cisco without your CCNA and then come tell me about how great it is).

Train LoRas for models that can take them
Because I own the machine that runs the code. It's that simple. Their code will do what I allow it to do. It's not really a "take it or leave it" deal. I have numerous options available to me. If those options aren't there, it means I don't own the machine.

If they don't want others to "tamper" with their code, they should run it on their computers. Keep them safe and secure on their servers. Code that runs on our machines is and should be completely under our control. Anything that enables them to usurp this control from us is an attack on computing freedom and should be illegal.

Yeah, I don't use a dynamic IP. The IP is fixed and reserved. I wonder if he misunderstood it.
This title keeps landing body shots right up to the KO kubernetes cluster. Well done.
While most of this is true, it applies far wider than just to "staff engineers". How much influence and direction you can assert hugely depends on how much trust and autonomy you are given by your manager even if you are a VP of engineering, Director of Engineering, a Technical Lead, an Architect or even a Senior or non-Senior engineer. I've seen cases where each of them could significantly influence mid-size company technical direction, but also get ignored.

And come to thing of it, I've seen it play out in Product Management, Design and even C-level suites.

Obviously, those in higher positions have more experience recognizing lack of alignment so they "part ways" sooner rather than later.
I can think of several enterprise brands that are also all three of those.
I'm curious as to the capacity of the bare metal hosts you operate such that you can oversubscribe CPU without exhausting memory first or forcing processes to swap (which leads to significantly worse latency than typical scheduling delays). My experience is that most machines end up being memory bound because modern software—especially Java workloads, which I know Netflix runs a lot of—can be profligate memory consumers.
I'm confused about that part. He said he used a 0.8mm thick board. But the repo he linked said the board should be 0.6mm.

Why are all the variables functions? They're just numbers. There's no need at all for them to be functions that just return numbers.

I hope the astronauts stay safe; their radiation exposure during the space walk is expected to be on the order of several weeks on ISS.
It does not exist outside of diy enthusiasts in the west as a used electric car will have more range and be cheaper.

Wonder how many parts of the product are also ai generated and - as the front pic - somehow "creepy".
Yet after decades of this messaging, we still have these people touching the server-side code. Is it likely another few years of the same messaging will fix it?
Yeah, I would get a shutterstock image, not perfect but much better than AI images.
Yes, I had a really hard time getting used to the UI. Later found the ModernUI Workbench plugin which made it a whole lot better.

But it's a signal among many. If your employer purposefully goes out of their way to make these kinds of decisions consistently, it sticks with you.
Please fix the title as it doesn't seem to match the original article (at least from the phone).

It's also false if we consider it from a perspective of a coordinate system based on Earth (center of mass or surface): humans have been to the moon that's a lot "higher".

I've not heard that nickname in 20 years! I went to his same highschool (liceo), he's two years older, and I was always pretty amazed by the guy - including how he took what was effectively an offensive slur against him ("carrot hair", pel di carota) and claimed it as his nickname. Doing that as a teenager takes balls. Great to know he's sorted for good, I wish I was (lol)...
No kidding. I had a one letter .tm domain name back in the 90s and they (Turkmenistan) increased the fee to $1000/year.
Love everything about CH. However, we were at wits end syncing things to it from postgres. Airbyte was a let down with no normalisation (they had it but removed it). Meltano was seamless but with no ui. However, we have had issues with it as well. Peerdb is a welcome addition - will give it a go soon.
I would understand that the tasks package is per user and each user would use up their tasks at an individual pace.
I agree. I cringed the moment I read "basic React site" and "self-hosted Kubernetes cluster" in the very same sentence. It immediately discouraged me to click on the link.

I mean, there is absolutely zero reasons to discuss "basic React site" and "Kubernetes" in the same discussion, let alone Kubernetes being the step #1 of any React project.

Let's think about it for a second. Does a "basic React site" require supporting something like csrf? If not, you're deeply in static file hosting territory.

If you feel your basic React app needs to support csrf or any server-side thing, all you need to do is setup a single service.

Do you need Kubernetes to run a single service? I don't think so.

It reads like buzzword soup.
Brazil once had a similar problem. Banks used to force users to install these obnoxious "security plugins" into their browsers. One day I got fed up with the inexplicable slowdown they were causing and decided to see what they were doing. Turned out they were intercepting every network connection.

There is no limit whatsoever to what a bank feels is justified in doing when it comes to preventing fraud, money laundering or whatever else that impacts their bottom line. They literally believe they are entitled to any and all access.
Sorry, all I'd meant was that Berne's typical games annoy me in exactly the same way spam or indiscreet advertising does (I have a lot of sympathy for the purported motives of the aliens encountered in Blindsight) so recognising the start of one and then (contra St G, "the ebbing tide"?) tuning out until it recedes, leaving one's kernel of sanity undissolved (and perhaps even lotus-like, letting the muddy vibe just bead up and roll off?), really helps in the equanimity department.

I'll be low on bandwidth for the next few days, but will try to think of insanity inducing games. The glass bead game being good for pareidolia, I could imagine that if one played it to the point of seeing everything connected to everything else might lead to institutionalisation about as often as to enlightenment?

(Mark Vonnegut's experience as detailed in The Eden Express (1975) suggest that mixing psychedelics with stress is an insanity-inducing game)
Why not just running a shell script? Is there a benefit doing this on a cluster?

I am honestly amazed that these researchers held off for as long as they did on publishing. If crappy startups are given 6 months to close egregiously bad privacy holes like this, they will continue to abuse the privilege they have in collecting this information to begin with. I say give them 2 months and then release. Fuckers need to learn not to play dice with people's private information.
Eternal September. Everyone starts somewhere, it’s just all the time now. In ten years, the dev will explain to a junior how bad they messed up, and why they have to validate this way. Well, I don’t know, but that’s what I hope.
Adding to above, CH should take ownership of CH airbyte connector. There are so so many users waiting for it. Have a look at that issue/discussion in airbyte github repo.
Junior developer probably opened a Jira ticket, saw a UI of a permission dialog, and did exactly that task with nobody senior enough to know better. That's how you reproduce the bugs that were in-fashion 15 - 20 years ago in my experience!
Ah, that's the one I remember. That's wild. People mention they bought that CPU for 60 cents. That was five years ago.

I think I'd maxed my 386 server out with 8MB of RAM.

Yeah there is zero reason for mac.

Freecad on Linux is great, and for commercial packages, onshape on chromium on Linux runs better for me than fusion on windows did.
I'm sorry, you are simply incorrect here. Some members of the Democratic Party are left of center, but by and large they are a center/center right party.

They broadly support capitalism, broadly support imperial military power, broadly do not support single payer health care, broadly do not support nationalization of industry, oppose criminal justice reform, oppose upzoning, oppose transit, oppose large tax hikes, and are active in the eradication of minorities.

Biden shut down a major labor strike, he expanded drilling for oil, he made it easier for states to medically and socially discriminate against trans people, he's pumped up the police, and he's continuously armed a state accused of genocide. Biden has put forth one of the most restrictive border policies we've ever had, and kept many trump era policies. The democrats also had the opportunity, years ago, to permanently secure abortion access and chose not to. They have by and large expanded the carceral state (and coined the concept of super predators to ensure Black people remained incarcerated.)

Also, and this might be a shock, democrats are anti gun, while many many leftists believe in gun ownership. (Karl Marx, Martin Luther king Jr., Malcom X, etc were all believers in individual ownership of firearms.)

Leftists generally believe in nationalization, limiting corporate and executive power (or eliminating it), social housing, socialized medicine, free food and water, elimination of oil drilling, trains, dense urban areas, mutual aid, "wellbeing for all", free education, free childcare, etc.

I've never once seen a Democrat say that we should abolish private property. If you think democrats are left wing you simply don't understand what left wing means.
The equality is that the fine is for hours of your life it takes to pay that fine. If you make $20/hr and the fine is $100, that's 5 hours of work that you could use to pay for whatever, that you have to use to pay the ticket. If you make $200/hr, then the fine is $1,000, also 5 hours of your life. That's where the equality is. No matter who you are, violating this thing costs, in this example, 5 hours of work.
I am sure you will appreciate this nuanced analysis:

Yes I know about eFuses, they were used on the Xbox 360 console as well. As far as I know, they are similar types of eFuses on the Tesla that are capable of changing their state via firmware instead of one time blow (different application) but I could be wrong. Its just in this case the thing being controlled is not a checksum for what firmware can be installed, but a checksum to confirm if current should flow to a specific path.
