>Take the recent Lichess downtime, for example. Their main server had a hardware issue that required physical intervention. This meant the site was down for over 10 hours, and there wasn't much they could do except wait for OVH to send a tech.

If you not a HN person with systemadmin skills yes. But is NOT that hard to have in house RADI hd setup, with failover server. Or failover NAT gateway. AWS and cloud provider are just a rip off.

> The reason that IPv6 is so lightly used is that it’s cheaper to use IPv4 + workarounds

Cheaper? Hetzner and other hosts give IPv6 addresses out for free and charge extra for IPv4 addresses.
But if you’re constantly pinging the container (as suggested above), it will never scale to zero.
That's ultimately the question. It comes down to cost and time. If you have enough scale that hiring a full-time person is more cost effective than paying for managed, great. On the flip side, you don't necessarily want to take engineering hours away from building the product you sell.

It's so obviously cherry-picking, I have no idea what you are even thinking. To not be cherry-picking would mean that it's actually ready and works fine in all situations, and there's no way Musk would not shout that out from rooftops and sell it yesterday.

Obviously it works some time on some roads, but not all the time on all the roads. A film with it when it works on the road it works is cherry-picking. Look up what the term means.
>GPUs are different, unless things go very poorly, these GPUs should be pretty much obsolete after 10 years.

Not really much for gaming, especially here in third world cou tries, OLD or Abandoned Gpu's are basically all that is avalaible for use, from anything from gaming to even video editing.

Considering how many new great games are being made(and with the news of nvidia drivers possibly becoming easily avalaible on linux.), and with tech becoming more avalaible and usefull on these places, i expect there to be a somewhat considerable increase in demand for GPU in say here in africa or southeast asia.

It probably wont change the world or us economy, but it would pribably make me quite happy if the bubble were to burst, even as a supporter of AI in research and Cancer detection.
But that's not a thermal thing? It's energy absorbed.
For law enforcement purposes most CGNAT operators should keep a log of who had what address at what time. You can still get blocked by websites until you get a new address, though.
I agree, that answer is misleading. The way I've always understood it: light is an EM wave, and it interacts with medium that it travels through. When traveling through a vacuum, the "beam" source is the origin, but when traveling through a medium the "beam" is a propagation of emissions from the matter absorbing, oscillating, and re-emitting a photon. These interactions take (an extremely small, but nonzero) amount of time, but the light being absorbed and emitted always travels at c.
Which is bullshit, because the auditors ALWAYS miss stuff, even things I would think are painfully obvious. It’s a cottage industry that allows the C-Suite to assure investors that they have taken all necessary precautions, so when they get hacked they can point and say “we were certified!”

It's mostly just the first. And to achieve the first people use languages that they're productive in, which is often Rust or Go due to being able to compile a binary and performance. Sometimes people use Python, Ruby, or Node, and that's okay too.

Take this prior art for example:

~ $ ll -d $HOME/.local/share/Trash
drwx------. 5 me me 47 Jan 15 2020 /home/me/.local/share/Trash

Home directories and the root they're stored in aren't generally well-protected, trash directories should do so to avoid leaking.

Per the XDG spec if this is open, you want sticky bits. More justice (and considerations) here: https://specifications.freedesktop.org/trash-spec/latest/

It's the result of MBA-driven enshittification.

"In the beginning" the clouds promised to use their scale to soak up your unpredictable demand. You as the customer didn't have to think about capacity, or planning ahead, budgets, opex, etc... Just swipe your credit card and go from zero to any number you please and back again at any time of your choosing. Because there are so many other customers using the cloud with you, the unpredictable nature of your individual usage is averaged out and the cloud vendor gets a (slightly) noisy but manageable usage level of their resources. They have to work a little harder to predict future capacity needs, but you pay a premium for this.

"A little later" the MBAs realise that they can squeeze 5% more profit out of their customers with lock-in contracts that make everything "nice and predictable" instead of the stochastic noise they had to "deal with" before. Getting rid of that makes things a lot harder for you as the customer, but they don't care. They care about that 5%.

Ta-da... we're back at having to "procure", we're back at budgets that have to be planned for 3 years in advance, we're back at having to have time machines.
I only have the opposite. Great support with amazingly deep knowledge at every level.
I like the theme with a graveyard, decompose, perhaps not with seance though
The teacher will have to know the students better I suppose. If suspected of cheating a student should be given the chance to provide a writing sample and demonstrate knowledge in a face to face interview. It seems like the assignment here was just a summarization of some body of knowledge being taught; not something requiring original insight. It is the original ideas and analysis that, at this point, seems out of the reach of ai. And I guess more assessments of students should be testing the ability to produce such original insight, rather than what amounts to just a test or comprehension.
Of course it's similar: they're all instances of a capitalist "boom -> boost -> quit" cycle. At least this frontier is mostly digital in terms of resources being destroyed.

Maybe we will get a nuclear energy renaissance out of this, who knows.
I imagine @dang is pretty on top of clapping antisemitic comments on this platform, he’s not one to mess around.

I worry that softening the definition of antisemitism by saying things border on it is ultimately weakening the severity of the accusation long term. Like bigot and pedo, antisemite will soon be relegated to just another empty accusation before long.

My problem with PG is it just doesn't seem to help much with my situation. I want to write apps that work offline and sync data across devices using the 'cloud'. I think that means Sqlite on the client, but ?? for the server. I have yet to find a good book explaining techniques for this kind of replication/syncing.
Next.js (v15), React (v19), Auth.js (v5), shadcn/ui, Postgres, Hetzner.

More here: https://achromatic.dev/docs/tech-stack

Choice had a big impact, because I don't have to context switch, only have to implement validation once, can re-use a lot of the logic between frontend and backend and the UI part also looks neat. Furthermore with React server components and server actions a lot of the boilerplate code for an internal API is just.. gone. Super easy.

Now with Next.js 15 RC 2 and stable coming out next Friday, I'm in a very good position. Using the app router with Next.js 13 or Next.js 14 was like having warts. But now with Next.js 15 caching is good again and the speed improvements for dev mode were good enough to not bother me anymore.
Author acknowledges how the tmpdir can be a bad default, so that’s why you can change it :)

> Graveyard location.

> You can see the current graveyard location by running rip graveyard. If you have $XDG_DATA_HOME environment variable set, rip will use $XDG_DATA_HOME/graveyard instead of the $TMPDIR/graveyard-$USER.

> If you want to put the graveyard somewhere else (like ~/.local/share/Trash), you have two options, in order of precedence:

> Alias rip to rip --graveyard ~/.local/share/Trash

> Set the environment variable $RIP_GRAVEYARD to ~/.local/share/Trash.

> This can be a good idea because if the graveyard is mounted on an in-memory file system (as /tmp is in Arch Linux), deleting large files can quickly fill up your RAM. It's also much slower to move files across file systems, although the delay should be minimal with an SSD.
The network experience on Nintendo devices always seemed janky and home-grown. I feel like they built everything from scratch at corp HQ complete with wonky edge cases.
Well at the point where you are going to question the flow of time, or why any law of physics exists. Then also, why even use words. What words have any meaning. What does the word 'rational' even mean. What is a 'question' to begin with.

This seems more like category errors, or applying words from one level of meaning to another level.

If you are going to go go that far, then nothing even exists to discuss.

I would prefer to say "free of charge", because that support is not actually free, it has a cost, you're just not required to pay for it.

But you as well as I know, that what the other participant in this conversation means, is that if a for-profit entity relies on support that is "free of charge" in this way, such that it can continue to profit on the back of their product support, then the for-profit entity really ought to seriously consider a voluntary donation of some kind to support the continued maintenance and support of the product.

> I thought it was common knowledge that it was impossible to tell whether text was generated by AI.

I think it is, however the dream among educators of an “AI detector” is so strong that they’re willing to believe “these guys are the ones that cracked the problem” over and over, when it’s not entirely true. They try it out themselves with some simple attempts and find that it mostly works and conclude the company’s claims are true. The problem though is that their tests are all trying to pass off AI-generated work as human-generated—not the other way around. Since these tools have a non-zero false positive rate, there will always exist some poor kid who slaved away on a 20-page term paper for weeks that gets popped for using AI. That kid has no recourse, no appeals—the school spent a lot of money on the AI detector, and you better believe that it’s right.

Now imagine the ChatKGB in the USSR culling portions of the population with a "calculated acceptable error rate". Stalin's secret service wet dream.

1. Would you give that power to a World Government to measure you in a behavioral scoring system hence technologically enabling bureaucrats to vote that error rate value somewhat as they do for interest rates today "to ensure progress" (uniparty propaganda)?

2. What makes that impossible to happen?
TL;DR:

Workplace loneliness remains a widespread issue despite increased awareness and efforts from employers. Factors like remote work are often blamed, but research shows that work location is less of a factor than social opportunities, team dynamics, and organizational culture.

Top fix is shared lunches, happy hours, or chit chat in meetings. Cultural boosters include building slack into the day, managers having people's backs, and intentional outreach to lonely employees to significantly improve connection. Companies should measure loneliness, create time for relationship-building, and foster a culture of pulling together to reduce loneliness and build employee well-being and productivity.

---

On the other hand, as with most such studies, one suggestion is pushing introverts to be more extoverted: “In other words, our data shows that lonely employees might hold back when social opportunities are presented... The good news is that initial resistance can often be overcome with targeted and sincere recruitment efforts.”

Less conventional research suggests letting people self-select into activities that add to their energy levels rather than require energy to participate.

(Based on that research, for example, rather than mandated group outings, we provide every employee a monthly "3+ shared lunch" budget to use or combine, which can be used 3 people at a time or pooled for larger teams without asking manager approval, allowing social interaction to develop organically instead of being a "company" or "HR" event. We do work out and offer company sponsored events such as karting, bar or arcade takeovers, or private dinners, and sponsor entire company gatherings a couple times a year, but do not require attending them. Finally, we fully stock a self-prep kitchen — think microwave, not stovetop, and dishwashers to clean up after yourself — with an oversized shared table. This area offers the proverbial watercooler all day, but meaningful shared lunches or brainstorming syncs as well.)
I agree but would slightly modify it in that if you have taken VC money, growth probably matters above all else. Don't waste time on activities not related to the product being sold.
I meant you don't need to feed it your corpus if it's good enough at mimicking styles. Just ask to mimic someone else. I don't mean novelty like pirate or shakespeare. Mimic "a student with average ability". Then ask to ramp up authenticity. Or even use some model or service with this built in so you don't even need to write any prompts. Zero effort

You're saying it's not good enough at mimicking styles. others saying it's good enough. I think if it's not good enough today it'll be good enough tomorrow. Are you betting on it not becoming good enough?

I don't understand, would you recommend that they just give up democracy willingly?
Yeah this is the thing. Investors are only looking for the next bitcoin these days. Something that will pay back 10.000-fold in 2 years. They're cheering each other on and working themselves up drooling over the imagined profits. They no longer have any long-term vision.

If it doesn't meet those sky-high expectations it's a flop.

The same happened with metaverse, blockchain etc. Those technologies are kinda shitcanned now which is unfair too because they have excellent usecases where they add value. It was never going to be for everyone, and no we weren't all going to run around with an oculus quest 24/7.

I think these investors break it more than they do good.

As someone who grew up in India but lives in the US, the situation is pretty comparable. US has a gun violence problem but only if you are at the wrong place at the wrong time. Or you are part of a gang. Otherwise you can spend years in the US without even hearing a gunshot or seeing a gun in real life.

Murders, Rapes, kidnappings are the same in India. Unless you are at the wrong place at the wrong time or part of a targeted group (not necessarily gangs), you may not even know these happen.
Traffic accidents are more common (and lack of a good emergency response system - like EMTs in the US, make it worse).
Perry crimes of opportunity are everywhere. Like pickpockets or scamming people with higher prices/fake goods. But this is relatively easy to look for and avoid.
At risk of saying something you know, CRDT’s may be a good fit for your use case.

The problem is of course making changes offline that the user assumes are permanent but then later, when sync time comes, then turn out to conflict with changes made in the meantime. So changes can’t be made permanent. Either that requires difficult UX to reconcile or something that always will give you something consistent, like a crdt.

> I've landed on making take-home assignments worth little and making exams worth most of their grade.

I feel like this is almost exactly moving all evaluation into the class. If "little" becomes nothing, it is exactly that.

I feel this was always the best strategy. In college, how much homework assignments were worth was an easy way to evaluate how bad the teacher was and how lightweight the class was going to be. My best professors dared you not to do your homework, and would congratulate you if you could pass their exams without having done it.

The very best ones didn't even want you to turn it in, they'd only assign problems that had answers in the back of the book. Why put you through a entire compile cycle of turning it in, having a TA go over it, and getting it back when you were supposed to be onto the next thing? Better and cheaper to find out you're wrong quickly.
The biggest design failure of IPv6 is that it was not designed to be backwards-compatible with IPv4. Technologies with established user bases need to evolve with backwards compatibility if they want to take advantage of existing network effects.
Mastodon offers to migrate relationships between accounts automatically, so moving both people you follow and people following you. But it doesn't offer post migration between servers. Since it doesn't use anything like DIDs, it'd be pretty hard to reassociate your posts as other servers know them with a new account ID.

I know of one other software, Firefish, that would migrate your old posts, but just not federate them. So you could have the archive of them still attached to your account, they just wouldn't be seen across the network.
