I wrote i, the beginning and at the end of my blog post. I love brands that provide quality made products, not just on hardware level, also on software level. I used TP-Link's Omada and it's not even close. Yes there is a premium, but you get for what you pay for.

Second, my cameras were dying, I had to replace it, and I had to make a choice. A friend of my who use Unifi cameras was very happy, so I thought that's a good reason to start using Unifi.

Anyway, both of these, I wrote in my blog post.
Git bash breaks password entry on certain tools that hides character input.
All of the world’s most successful unions (bar associations, the APA, UAPD..) achieved the greatly increased remuneration by increasing the costs and barriers to entry as much as possible. It makes sense that any employer would want to lower those barriers to entry as much as possible. The reason this trend across all employers has been emerging is simply because they started to realise they could get away with it, as in there were qualified candidates that didn’t have college degrees. All employers benefit from the increased labour pool from this, because increasing the supply of anything is going to put downward pressure on its price.
Most interesting. How about lawn sleeves, or is that only for bishops in the House of Lords?

I will add that at widely separated times I have lived in the same neighborhood as two bishops of the Protestant Episcopal Church in the United States of America, the US arm of the Anglican Church, and have never seen them in anything but standard American clothing.
I'm the smarmy prick who, when somebody says they bought a lottery ticket, I say "Give me the same amount you paid for that lottery ticket, and if you win I'll double your winnings."

Them: "there's no way you could afford to pay me!"

Me: "I won't have to."
What exactly does “wayland support” do to an existing x11 app? How they managed to ship either the app or the wayland without mutual “support” before?

What’s DE integration apart from tray and notifications? Why does an app need any DE integration beyond a tray icon?

These questions are valid, not odd.

Distros removing versions is a distro’s problem. Most gtk versions are installable on popular distros, afaiu.

Anyway, I find most of these points are moot, because they mirror winapi. Gdi -> directx, fonts scaling, need for msvcrts and so on. Looks like an argument for the sake of argument. You can’t make a modern app with winapi either, it will be a blurry non-integrated win2k window like device manager or advanced properties. The difference is you can’t migrate them at all, even MS can not.
Yes because while traveling from one jobsite to the next everyone has a full kitchen available to them.
The only coverage in the entire southeastern US is a gas station in Alabama. It's an interesting project but "openly licensed streetview" is overselling it by several football fields in any country.
Don't think APs are only about the internet speed. I have a Synology NAS, so streaming and copying files between devices (wirelessly) is also important.
Yes, getting through the article I was happy to see that wasn't the case and was just vulnerabilities that had existed in those programs.

Definitely they could have worded that better to make it not sound like they had been intentionally contributing bad code to projects. I'll update my original post to reflect that.
It’s really cool to see the kinds of stuff I learned in school using closed source turnkey remote sensing and GIS software being done in a more open, programmatic way. There’s just this far nicer feel of control.
More like a 20-30% pay cut. You trade it for the only semblance of stability that exists for such jobs. We are used to getting chucked on the street every few years. Once you get into a gov job you are in until you leave.
Here's what you said again for reference:

>It _can be_ useful. It can also _not_ be useful to others. It sounds like it's not a choice in this case, but a forced feature, and that's fine for some and not for others.

>So again, why _must_ Linux have an equivalent?

That is very different from simply asking why Linux should have a "Direct3D" built in like Windows does Direct3D.

>What do I gain?

To answer this again and more in-depth this time: A central, powerful subsystem that can be assumed to exist. We can assume Direct3D is and always will be available in Windows.

One of Linux's biggest problems is you can't safely assume anything will exist, in particular cases not even the kernel. This is the reason containers were invented, because you need to bring your own entire operating environment on account of being impossible to assume anything. The cost for this workaround is performance and complexity, the latter of which most users abhor.

>Is that always a good design choice?

Yes, it enables users thereof.

> Is that true of Windows Server, and if so, why do I need 3D rendering baked into my Windows Server? What about Windows Server Core... does the NT kernel have it baked in there?

If the server is a media server, say, having DirectX means the server can do encoding and decoding itself and that's something many people want.

Windows itself also needs Direct3D for rendering the desktop, which Server also obviously has.

There is next to no practical cost for the user.
On Android you can use a lot of programming languages inside Termux[0]. It is a terminal environment with a package manager. I'm mostly using it for writing small automation bash scripts and a little for Nim programming.

What surprised me is the fact that Termux always ships the latest version of Nim. They're practically the first to update the compiler on new version release, even compared to rolling Linux distros, OpenSUSE Tumbleweed and Arch taking second and third place after a week or two.

I also have full blown Neovim IDE configured for Nim. In combination with a custom 7-row keyboard[1] it's even somewhat comfortable to use for a quarter of an hour =).

Thanks for sharing! I've been running an EdgeMax router and U6 router for some time without issues, but hope to upgrade to a DreamMachine some day. The information you shared will definitely help when that day comes.
Not in any particular order:

Java, Spring Boot, Angular 1 & 2, React, CSS design tokens like Tailwind or Bootstrap, Oracle DB, MySQL, PostgreSQL, AWS and AWS Gov Cloud, Amazon SQS, Kubernetes, Rancher, New Relic, GitHub and GitHub Actions, Service Now, Confluence, Jira, and so on.

Study up and understand AGILE workflows, and a 2 week 10 business day sprint working cycles. Then tie that back into continuous integration/continuous deployments mentioned above.

You’re the one who is unaware of the GPU market here. The 3080 is last generation’s hardware.

If we are comparing equivalent specs, we should note that this new PS5 Pro is not going to be equivalent to mid-high end graphics cards that cost $500.

Many outlets are comparing it to the RX6800 [1], which would put it at around a $380 retail graphics card like an RTX 4060Ti.

Here’s my PS5 Pro equivalent build:

https://pcpartpicker.com/list/q24H6D

It’s $900, but remember that PS5 online play costs $80/year. so you’re breaking even after about 2 years, not counting the cost savings of PC games (I can buy Elden ring for under $50 via cheapshark.com, but it’s $70 on the PS Store)

Also, common components like case, power supply, and storage almost never have to be replaced when a PC is upgraded. Sony is making you throw out all those common components.

Certificate Transparency exists to catch abuse like this. [1]

Additionally, Google has pinned their certificates in Chrome and will alert via Certificate Transparency if unexpected certificates are found. [2]

It is unlikely this has been abused without anyone noticing. With that said, it definitely can be, there is a window of time before it is noticed to cause damage, and there would be fallout and a "call to action" afterwards as a result. If only someone said something.

Still got mine. Still write code on it, too[1] although it's now connected to the Internet with a Spectranet card. My 9-year old self would have been astonished that there's still a lively scene surrounding the Spectrum and some quality games still being released for it today. Or that I'd still be writing Speccy BASIC code projects[2] in the 21st century!

It's remarkably fun to tinker with still, and I don't think it's purely nostalgia for me. Although there's certainly an element of that at play, I think it's more the "zen" like simplicity that's appealing these days of hugely elaborate cloud-native stacks and hardware so complex there's no way anyone can hold it all in their heads. The Spectrum and other 80s home computers in contrast were so accessible and people did (and still do) astonishing things within those limits. The Speccy no doubt launched hundreds of thousands of careers, mine included.

Plus, with those limitations, games simply had to be playable to be successful as they couldn't on gimmicks! I honestly prefer a good game of Manic Miner over any modern title. The Spectrum & Amiga years were the glory days of old-school gaming for sure!

If you look back in history, there was a point in time when only the rich and wealthy could afford to have artists create paintings for them. A portrait was reserved for the aristocratic and nobility.

Now, anyone can go into TJ Maxx or Home Goods and pick up cheap printed artwork from China. Want a portrait? Snap a picture with your phone and print it out. No skill required.

It was once the case that if you wanted a bespoke sculpture, you either needed to have the skill or the wealth to pay an artist to create one. Now anyone can 3D print one or use a CNC machine or injection molding to create one.

Is there something inherently wrong with that? Does that mean that award winning photographers and acclaimed modern painters are degraded to the same level as anyone with a phone? Are world renowned sculptors and artists no longer a thing because of 3D printing and cheap access to injection molding?

> Really good chance with no audience Picasso just does something else too.

The people that want to be really good at their craft will continue to do so. The people that appreciate the effort, artistry, and skill will continue to do so. The presence of cheap mass produced wine doesn't degrade expensive wine; the presence of cheap mass produced whisky doesn't obviate the market for expensive small batch whisky. It's the opposite; in fact, it elevates it onto a pedestal.

But more than that, the power of generative AI is to create an experience that otherwise doesn't exist because no game or visual experience can be tailored exactly to my tastes, preferences, and style. What gen AI promises is that every person can get exactly the experience that they are seeking by simply tweaking the input.

"Feels like this deviation is always used as a distraction to divide and conquer the workers and voters on race and skin color and have them fight against each other to prevent them collectively allying against those from the top actually oppressing them and eroding their rights and wages."

It does seem that way, slightly. There seem to be some natural causes for misalignment that I would think are more influential. One main issue is that different people and groups of people have different experiences. If you've never been screwed over, you might not see the problems in the current system. If you have been screwed over and seen other screwed over, you might just think that's the way it goes.

What are the alternatives proposed to the unfair impacts? I want to see the objective rating criteria that can reduce or prevent people from getting screwed over. I do think tech unions can help with this a little, but I haven't seen any successful approaches to things like ratings. Even the places that set standards seem to have subjective criteria, or you work is subjectively applied.

I've been screwed over and passed over multiple times. I also have a disability, no less it's one that causes inconsistencies with policies and treatment to jump out to me. I still haven't seen any solutions that will work until the members agree on what are the problems and how do we fix them. Many of my coworkers think my company is great, but those also tend to be the people that consistently get high ratings and promotions. Meanwhile, I struggle to point out all the contributions I made, align them to the standard, and otherwise do my manager's job of rating me for them only to get an average rating. It also doesn't help that I have to tell them what the corporate policies say when they try to misuse them against me (holding time off against me, holding prior period performance against me for this period, not providing accommodations that were promised, etc). Nobody else seems to have this hard of a time so why would they risk anything to speak up for people like me? I've learned to live with the disappointment by giving up any dreams of advancement and just trying to keep the job I have while fending off as much BS as I can... and perhaps complaining about it on HN.
I am currently locked out of online banking becuase my Bank uses a security lib of questionable value. One of the "security" mechanisms is a block list of other apps installed on your phone.

In the past it was magisk in there, since I can't root my current phone I don't have magisk either. My only way to use online banking is copying the app into my work profile profile, or using an older version which I have to sideload from apkmirror.
I was going to say... interactive rebase addresses a lot of the "diff soup" comments that the writer complains about. It's really only done by disciplined engineering teams though (who bother to learn some more advanced features of git)
And much the same with Apple and the DMA most recently. Do I think Apple is being a bad actor re: the DMA? Yes. But it does also seem like the EU is doing a lot of "Well, just release your product and we'll tell you after you ship it if we're going to fine you for billions of dollars". You see this with things like the upcoming iPhone Display Mirroring features that aren't coming to the EU where Apple has said they're not shipping them in the EU because they think it would violate the DMA, and the regulators have just blasted Apple for withholding features but explicitly not said whether the feature is compliant.

Having companies afraid of massive penalties if they mess up is fine and good, but only works if the conduct you're trying to disincentivize is one you're ok with them not doing at all.

Let's just agree to disagree.
I'd recommend using child workflows for directed graphs. The building blocks are start_workflow to split off a child, and then you can wait for the result at a later time. Workflows can also send events / messages to communicate back and forth with each other.

One neat thing about starting a child workflow is you can assign an idemopotency ID, which might be intentionally calculated in a way such that multiple parents will only start one run of the child workflow.
The experience from the past is that we cannot unfuck a goat.

New technologies don't need to be "banned" forever, what a daft idea.

How can NGOs best use AI internally?
I work for a large global NGO with offices in 50+ countries and ~4k staff, innovating health care services in partnership with governments. Would love HN to help us understand what the best use cases for AI are as an organization. We're NOT looking for AI use in our client-facing programs - ie, not looking for 'AI will help with patient HIV risk assessment at a facility-level.' That's baked into various health programs. What we're looking for is best use cases of AI to streamline business processes, internal and external communication, administration, fundraising, etc.
In my view, which is mostly inspired by Huizinga's works, the game is a constructed set of rules. The main game is the culture itself, that branches into the great playing tree of humanity. The video games are not that different from any other set of rules, but they are interactive, immersive and self-governing/autonomous, which is an unusual set of qualities for a media.

I made one for fun last year. It was quite easy to get two hosts talking to each other in a natural manner. It's just a python script where I tell it which Reddit discussion or other topic to make an episode segment about, and it works fine as long as I cherry-picked out of a few generations.

> I think the reason we tolerate this problem with infrastructure is that the benefits outweigh the risk.

The thing is, we absolutely don't tolerate this with infrastructure. We have entire systems in place to make sure that we can find people who use our infrastructure to kill people. The USPS has its own entire law enforcement branch whose sole job is to track down people who misuse the mail. I'm sure there are processes in the UK for the same.

With our infrastructure there's some non-zero amount of abuse that we acknowledge we won't be able to prevent in order to make everything work without infinite enforcement cost, but we don't just close our eyes to the abuse and not even try to do anything about it at all.

The difference between the post office and Tor is that Tor is very specifically designed to make tracking a sender of a bomb threat impossible. State-run postal services at least try to have an audit trail for what they send.

I would say it's far better in the private sector, but the bar is low.
This is because software dev is a volatile market. It doesn't matter how "talented" you are, it's about your rank in the social circles and it shows in the product.

There is now far more devs than there is work for them. This is a planned strategy to reduce salaries.

If you're "talented". Make your money and get out asap.
