I'm entirely in the "make it easy" camp. I'd rather spend more time gathering, cooking and eating recipes than developing an over-complex schema which I have to think about all the time. I found this [0] which converts markdown and just keep my recipes in Obsidian with a simple ChronoSync to periodically upload stuff to the family recipe website. I did dabble with a scraper that turns web recipes into this same markdown format which is quite fun but really just simple as possible is the way for me!

There are metro systems where trains sometimes stop in the tunnels or go at slower speeds.

I'm guessing this app won't work that well there. In fact it would probably generate false positives when labeling stations... ?
> I'm guessing parent was requesting an alternative that was demonstrably better rather than examples of how it's bad - and thus saying that GBoard is actually okay on this front, regardless of how actually usable it is.

Yeah... this style of "polite" commentary ("Oh, you're claiming it's bad? Show me something that's better, smartypants!") drives me up the wall. Old farts might call it an offensive application of blowing sunshine up others' asses.

It's entirely possible for something to be both godawful and also be the only available option! People are well within their rights to complain about things that are godawful! [0]

[0] For the seeking-VC-funding crowd: If folks didn't complain, how would entrepreneurial-minded folks learn that there may be an opportunity to make money doing better?
Oh I’m not wealth motivated at all. My regrets are about uselessness of that time itself. E.g. I could learn ML instead and do nothing useful with it, rather than not doing nothing useful with my perl knowledge today.

I think a 2000 kcal single meal would work, but good luck making it a single pill, absorption would suck.

Maybe an advanced liquid, like for parenteral nutrition, and even then the volume would be pretty big and it would have to be eaten slowly.
Unless you want to go straight for the mainline and bypass the gastrointestinal system via a banana bag, which has some risks.

Such a diet would be extremely boring though.

CICO is true but has the absorption and metabolism caveat.

Thats still surprisingly unsolved problem. I was daydreaming about pulling my laptop out somewhere without known wifi and it automatically using my phone as a hotspot, without going trough manual process of enabling said hotspot. Somehow we connected the world but forgot to connect out devices..
> It is ludicrous that we are leaving this up to the free market.

If you leave it up to the government, inevitably you're going to get only information approved by the people in power in that government.

You could call that search engine "Pravda".
I'm not sure this demonstrates the issue without more context. If the people meant to use it were happy, what problem did the "leaders" have with it? Was it a huge moneysink whereas it was supposed to be an extra income source or like what kind of issue even
Correct me if I am wrong, but this looks like something that Google would buy for 3.14B and quietly roll out to anything including your smart toaster.

My point is, I see only one real business case for this.
Thank you, really appreciate feedback like that! :D
Control of the hotel is required in a sense. Ownership isn't. It's actually much better for you if you come to an informal agreement with the owner of the hotel than if you take a legal ownership stake.
Surprised this passive agressive comment is not further downvoted. Doesn't add to the conversation.

Anyway, OP has a point. I hate traveling on the same day everyone else plans to due to some holiday gap / bridge / whatever.
The thing is, comfort is sticky (as I well know sadly, second class is hard to bear for me).

Low-cost companies targeted people with low disposable income at the cost of comfort.

People who used to have low disposable income have now not enough to travel by plane (or at all), and people who had enough to use standard companies have still enough to use them.

A very interesting fact is that median income grew in the US (less than average, but close enough). The standard deviation (from memory, if this isn't the translation of 'écart-type' I'm sorry) grew also, which indicate that the recent economic 'boom' the US experienced since the end of covid took more than 50% of us citizen with it, but clearly not a huge majority. Germany experienced a very similar thing since 2012. To my knowledge, in Germany it was most likely caused by a transfer from progressive taxation to a fixed one, reducing purchasing powers of people with low disposable income. In the US it seems it's a direct income issue.
Show HN: ROMI Tracker – Measure and Improve Marketing ROI, Fast and Free
Hi HN,

I wanted to share a tool I've been working on:(https://romi.felixoginni.com/). It’s a simple, free way for marketers, teams, and entrepreneurs to track their Return on Marketing Investment (ROMI). Inspired by the lightweight, no-signup-needed approach of Pastebin and JS Fiddle, ROMI Tracker lets you create a tracker with a unique URL that you can share and collaborate on without any login barriers.

What It Does:

- Create a Tracker Instantly: Start tracking your marketing campaigns right away, no signup needed.

- Shareable URLs: Share your tracker with teammates or clients through a simple link.

- Visual Performance Insights: View and analyze your marketing ROI through clear, charts and key metric tables.

Backstory:
I developed ROMI Tracker after noticing that many available tools were either too complex or required a significant cost commitment. As a designer and marketer, I wanted something lightweight and accessible that could be used without the friction of account creation, especially for teams needing quick collaboration.

Why It’s Different:

- No Barriers: No signups, logins, or paywalls – just create a tracker and start using it.

- Easy Sharing: Collaborate with your team through a simple, unique link.

- Simplicity First: Designed to be straightforward with essential features, focusing on what users need to track marketing ROI effectively.

Next Steps:
I’m exploring how to expand ROMI Tracker into a more comprehensive tool with advanced analytics, AI Insights and integrations with marketing platforms. I’d love your feedback on how useful this is for you and what additional features would make it better.

Try it out here: https://romi.felixoginni.com/ I’m around to answer questions and would really appreciate your feedback!
Why do you think JPL has a simpler task? Are you aware of all the missions they run? The Mars rovers? The Psyche asteroid mission? Juno? Europa Clipper?

If anything, SpaceX should be far more efficient. They essentially operate a single product, the Falcon 9, with occasional launches of the similar Falcon Heavy. Starship might need a few more people, but I'm not sure its more complex than designing and operating Mars Rovers. And Starlink should also be pretty simple to operate now, assuming they have taken advantage of automation. Whereas JPL is designing and operating a lot of unique and very different spacecraft.
My gut feeling is that there's something going on here with dueling priorities between (A) the best editing experience with a plain text editor vs. (B) the clearest storage format. This leads to things like "too much inlining" or "too much duplication".

In contrast, imagine relaxing the everything-in-notepad requirement, imagine a renderer that can easily display cross-referenced materials in a readable way. Or a step beyond that, an editor which also gives you "jump to definition" etc.

That change permits a much more internally-consistent XML file, such as one where "materials" and "steps" are separate sections, and any step can references a material that is being used as input or output, with something like <mat_ref id="sliced_uncooked_apples"/> .
Shouldn't be too high cost if you only run 2x the instances for a short amount of time. A reasonable use of Cloud, IMHO, if you can't figure out a less disruptive bandaid.
I guess the inclusion MBP battery allows drawing higher current than a USB C power supply can provide?
There will be a lot of apologists coming out of the woodwork to tell people that real mushroom hunters will also make similar mistakes like these AI bots with no sense or hint of any irony.
While I never dove deep into Rust, until now I have kinda naively expected for some reason that Rust's lifetimes and ownership model prevents these trivial deadlocks at compile time. Thinking about it now, there's no reason why it would. Still lots of footguns.

Also, from my experience, acquiring and releasing a mutex multiple times within a single code path feels to me like a smelly, subtly faulty code. Are there legitimate cases when it is inevitable and correct?

Hallucinatory advice is inherent to all LLMs. Nothing that comes out of an LLM can or should be trusted unless you can verify the output some other way via a trusted 3rd party, preferably human one.
It would be great to set limits on how much leave is scheduled at once or per quarter. My company says you should ask a manager if you book more than 25% of leave per quarter, so it would be good to know the max I can book without having to ask for permission.

Satiation is only relevant in the short to medium term, while you're adjusting to the diet. It's been tested with super low volume foods way back. And unfortunate starvation experiments, people literally stop feeling hunger just go weak.

Who's pretending? I build and host my own package updates, host my own NTP, etc. None of my machines do anything that leaves my network unless I'm the one actively doing it. It's not that hard.
timestamptz is not more than glorified unix timestamp with nice formatting by default. And it's great! It provides easy zone conversions directly in SQL and allows to use your actual language "date with time zone" type.

Naming is highly misleading though.
It’s a shame that ASUS cancelled the NUC Extreme line. I know it’s quite a bit bigger than other NUCs. But the 13 Extreme had expandability, good cooling, and fast CPU options.

this is a reality in organisation: " it’s paradoxically often better for you if there is some kind of problem that forces a delay, for the same reason that the heroic on-call engineer who hotfixes an incident gets more credit than the careful engineer who prevents one." Its ironic in many areas. A leader (Project or Political) who ran projects and shipped smoothly is less valued than a leader who created a mess and got them fixed ...who is more celebrated. :(

I tried to hint at the issue of the jab getting into the bloodstream directly instead of the muscle, which can happen when no aspiration is applied.

Defending the jab in a Stockholm syndrome manner is getting quite boring by now.
Some trains even have modern technology called "screens" that display their current location, next stop, route and so on!

(Although in fairness they so often get this laughably wrong, and cycle through useless "remember your luggage" style messages so you have to wait like 20s to see the information you want - critically bad on a train.)
Is it really breaking in, if one person steps out and another just "slides" in.. the door was open.
I think it has to do more with familiarity than complexity. You could have a good understanding of features like the ones showcased in the blogpost, but it could take you a minute of staring at a line to parse it if someone uses it in a way you're unfamiliar with. Doing that for potentially hours on end would be a pain.

It's definitely something I'd write for fun/personal projects but can't imagine working with other people in. On a side note, I believe this is where go's philosophy of having a dead simple single way of doing things is effective for working with large teams.
Similar thought, and Google acquire does seem like a plausible route. However, checking over on Play [1] they've apparently got In-App purchasing at $3-50 and 300+ cities and 1000+ transits that let you buy fare and passes. Seems like they're already making money anyway. Teams pretty extensive though, so it does look like a lot of annual money's probably necessary to float. [2]

1. It requires extensive metabolism and absorbs quite poorly alone. That and you're probably running on ketone bodies when doing it, rather than sugar, which has different metabolic properties.

2. I love N=1 experiments. That said, I also like spinach.

3. Most terrible state of things, since bad nutrition makes everything worse, and then there are diseases which are heavily dependent on what you eat.

4. Were it so. It so happens that barely anything people usually eat as food has serious other effects, and when it does, it's low to very low effect size. They don't even exactly add up.
For those who don’t want to click thru: the link shows Gen 4 60 TB drives from Western Digital and Solidigm for ~$7,262.00 ($121/TB). The Micron Gen 5 part is likely much more money.

Note on eBay there are currently many listings for 2018-era Intel 8TB P4510 Gen 3 drives, some for as little as $50/TB. These drives have great (enterprise) endurance and performance and became a key part in the sale from Intel to Solidigm. The Micron listing is certainly a milestone, but the NVME market is getting as crowded as CPUs (e.g. 10-year-old Haswell is still plenty useful today).
Notable example: freaking printers.

But now the subscription is canceled, and I have to look for migration options (there will be pain). Maybe Debian is the safest? I don't have much time these days to maintain or install Arch, or even have time to keep an eye on telemetry gathering practices of my OS.

Why cant we get any of the new nice connectors on consumer hardware? The fact that you will have to get old enterprise hardware to get ECC and any kind of pcie drive connections apart from M2 is stupid.

Increased protein has been indeed a staple of dieting. Requires more energy to process into sugars, and is filling.

That said you won't starve on rabbits, but you will go low weight, akin to Walford's. Assuming you eat most of the rabbit, not just the meat.

That said, make sure you don't have gout or kidney stones or other similar problems, or you will be in a world of hurt.
It's quite simply grift. They are privatizing everything and we'll love it.

I disagree that there is a consensus about genocide at all. These are very selective experts and their argument is for the most part ridiculous, with few exceptions. It is those whose work lead to many resolutions against Israel which highlights their lacking perspective

If these people claim to champion the Palestinian cause, the people in Gaza are in peril even more.

And no, Gaza was left to its own devices in 2005. With devastating results because there was nobody that had the ability and will to form a state.

The Saudi crown prince calls it a genocide too while openly stating that this is due to populism. He has an excuse, which one have these special international lawyers you refer to?

What do you suppose will be the future for Palestinians now? They fare worse than before the attacks, what perspective do they have?

Again, calling it a genocide is counter factual, regardless of your law degree.

The cases in the ICJ didn't even call for a ceasefire, because they knew Israel has the right to defend itself. And recent events have show that it is necessary.

If champions of the Palestinians cause cannot come up with more than accusations against Israel, Palestinians don't have a lot to look forward to.
I've realized that majority of engineers have no critical thinking, and are unable to see things beyond their domain of speciality. Arguments like "even when accounting for potential incident, your solution is more expensive, while our main goal is making money" almost never work, and I've been in countless discussions where some random document with "best practices", whatever they are supposed to be, was treated like a sacred scripture.
I have a project where one function (reading metadata from an Icecast stream [0]) was causing a memory leak and ultimately consuming all of it.

I don't remember all the details but I've still not be able to find the bug.

But this being in Elixir I "fixed it" with Task, TaskSupervisor and try/catch/rescue.

Not really a win but it is still running fine to this day.

Hey there, I worked on the benchmarks from the Prisma-side.

First off: Thanks for your feedback and questions, we're trying to create a meaningful comparison of ORMs and will be iterating on the benchmark setup and re-run them at some point, so your input is very much appreciated!

> It's not clear how many records were generated in the sample dataset for these benchmarks.

To clear the confusion: We've indeed used a sample size of 1000 records for the benchmark. If you click on the hyperlinked "real-world infrastructure" in the intro paragraph on benchmarks.prisma.io, the pop up shows you this information.

> I'm more interested in what latency and resource consumption look like for each query under any type of load.

This is great feedback and we were already considering adding this kind of information to the next iteration of the benchmarks. Thanks for this input!

> The issues that we were seeing with Prisma [3] were latency in acquiring a connection and executing a query when many queries were running simultaneously (with idle connections available in the pool and a high connection limit on Postgres).

That sounds like something our Engineering team may want to look into! Did you by any chance create a GitHub issue for this? It would be super helpful for the team to have more context on the issues you're describing here, so they can get fixed.

> I'd also be curious about the difference in performance for something like a nested `updateMany` where depending on how the query is generated, could deadlock or place a lock on more rows than necessary -- and where the generated queries actually matter.

This is something that hasn't been on our radar yet but I'm taking a note off for the next benchmark iteration as well!

Thanks again, please let us know if you have any further questions about Prisma or the benchmarks.
My understanding of CarPlay is that it does offload GPS to the car (when available, not all units/manufacturers might support it).
It's very nice. I'd like the feature to set some "fixed time off" (e.g. school is closed) and substract them from my days of.
Maybe, but it's a slipery slope. They could make it worse in a month, and worse the next month and so on.
My feedback for you is that this community expects a disclaimer when you're promoting your own product, and that the product is too tangential for this plug not to feel spammy.
