I read that Iceland asks people to change their names if they naturalise there (because of the -sson or -dottir surname suffix).

But your point stands - not everyone in the system will follow this pattern.
HN is a court of law: some things may fail to meet some legal test, but not that in no way means it automatically becomes subjectively "right". I am adding a datapoint on what's arguable and leaving the judgement of cogency to the reader.

My previously-unstated opinion is: remunerating directors like executives blurs the distinction between those 2 roles in ways that are likely detrimental to long-term shareholders.
How the Insurrection Act Limits Domestic Deployments of the U.S. Military
Not in any significant way. The decompressor could be changed to require you to feed the files into it in the correct order or expect some other sorting.

What you're saying is like saying that you encoded info in filenames because decompress.sh expects a file "compressed.dat" to exist. It's not describing any meaningful part of the scheme.
In many cases materials were used in areas not possible by our understanding of their level of technology. Or similar structures appear around the globe before global travel. Or folklore mentions contact with aliens or alien described technology.

I don't believe its a race division . In the past most ancient powerful knowledgeable civilizations were not white/European but when they were they were equally labelled like Stone Hedge is from white/european origin but often is linked to UFOS origin.
>Point 1: I do not want my program to only run on only one OS, or to require custom code to make it multi-platform.

To run on only one OS at build time? I usually just set up cross-compilers from linux if I am making cross-platform C/C++ code.

>Point 2: What if there's no OS?

You can use a system like bitbake I think.
People keep calling the right stupid, but at least everybody can understand what they're talking about.

This isn't the enlightened take you think it is. Lack of education led us here. Fuming at intellectuals when they attempt to address complex issues reminds me of our evolutionary ancestors fuming at the creation of civilization.
I think those things you’ve mentioned are what most people came to social media for originally, but it’s gotten lost in all the noise. The original point of social networks was to be social and connect with people in your industry or who share your interests or share a locality in common, and X especially has drifted far from that ideal — lots of users now log onto it to find something/somebody to be angry at and to argue/troll.
I agree it doesn't have much of a story. It reads much more like a non-fictional recounting of events, but provides a lot of food for thought about how things might unfold. Just don't approach it like your typical novel.
Starlink signals are essentially line of sight right now. The bump up in power to penetrate even a single layer of drywall is almost certainly way outside the power budget of a Starlink satellite.
The problem is the scale at which it happens and lack of methods-to-go in most runtimes/libs. No one and nothing is ready for unicode complexity out of box, and there's little interest in unscrewing it by oneself, cause it looks like an absurd minefield and likely is one, from the persepective of an average developer. So they get defensive by default, which results in $subj.
iPhone’s camera supports raw output, so if you use an appropriate app with an appropriate option you can definitely disable most of the funky stuff the default app does.

However, it is likely the more you turn off, the more the physical constraints will show. A regular dumb camera with a big sensor provides much more space for deterministic creative processing.
We're about to see so much propaganda pulling government line items out of context so you can get mad about it and support a political movement to defund everything of value in the state.
too late to dominate in the industry of electric vehicles and thus, control/own large % of the wealth generated.
So the ToS explicitly says Bluesky does NOT own your data.

However, data on AT Proto is fully public and it’d be trivial for someone to extract the data for AI to train.

For example, this app shows you entries hosted on the protocol: https://atproto-browser.vercel.app/at/nytimes.com

Hoping that the people who made twitter what it is will somehow create a different outcome when doing the same thing is ... something.
the solution to DLL hell is to patch the applications to all use the same version of the library.
Right hand rule is just an arbitrary decision defining counterclockwise to be positive, but I guess it's true that it could be "less arbitrary" if certain things are more counterclockwise than clockwise
Not really.

The issue is that social media sites produce feeds and content matching, forcing alternative views in your face.

Its like, they have decided to push metcalfes law as far as possible, to see when the breaking point is. Like a giant social experiment.

But if everyone is in one place thats still the most desirable network to be on. Just dont push Joe Blo's dumbest political opinions in my face as sponsored content.
My rule of thumb is to treat strings as opaque blobs most of the time. The only validation I'd always enforce is some sane length limit, to prevent users from shoving entire novels inside. If you treat your strings as opaque blobs, and use UTF8, most of internationalization problems go away. Imho often times, input validation is an attempt to solve a problem from the wrong side. Say, when XSS or SQL injections are found on a site, I've seen people's first reaction to be validation of user input by looking for "special symbols", or add a whitelist of allowed characters, instead of simply escaping strings right before rendering HTML (and modern frameworks do it automatically), or using parameterized queries if it's SQL. If a user wants to call themselves "alert('hello')", why not? Why the arbitrary limits? I think there're very few exceptions to this, probably something law-related, or if you have to interact with some legacy service.

Oh I see, this is a fantasy.
China poised to turn on one of most powerful sources of x-ray light
The doubts about the size of the investment in that Wikipedia article are funny. It's a bit like "We cannot afford to invest in education", but the Chinese are saying "We cannot afford not to invest in education" (Famous quotes, it's more about R&D here). China's leadership is probably terrified of falling into the middle-income trap. It might be the biggest issue on their minds right now. At least I am watching from the sidelines, wondering "Are they gonna make it?".
I don’t know what you are referring to. I’ve never seen someone self-censor Bluesky. I see people talking about it on X all the time. Mainly to highlight some of the worst content they find there but that’s another subject…

I tried checking out Bluesky the other day. The feed was mainly unhinged political rants of a very particular flavor.
For sure. Being an SEZ put Shenzhen on the map. Infrastructure was an additional boost and raised the ceiling on their growth.

In the US we already have market capitalism so there’s not much to gain there. But infrastructure is lacking. That’s the key takeaway.
Recall that Elon re-domiciled from “activist” Delaware to… whatever you call Texas and it’s reputation for corporate governance.

And now, he’s becoming some sort of circus act to disrupt the bureaucracy of the Federal government. So I wouldn’t count on the SEC doing anything.
I use mine as my Tailscale exit node.
I compile a lot of C++ code from a lot of places, and the only time I run into code that somehow simply doesn't work on newer versions of C++ and where the developers aren't even sure if they will accept any patches to fix the issue as they claim it "isn't supported" to use a newer version of C++--even for the public headers of a library--is, you guessed it: code from Google.

Meanwhile, most of the C++ code from Google seems to be written in some mishmash of different ideas, always at some halfway point along a migration between something ancient and something passable... but never anything I would ever dare to call "modern", and thereby tends to be riddled with state machines and manual weak pointers that lead to memory corruption.

So... I really am not sure I buy the entire premise of this article? Honestly, I am extremely glad that Google is finally leaving the ecosystem, as I generally do not enjoy it when Google engineers try to force their ridiculous use cases down peoples' throats, as they seem to believe they simply know better than everyone else how to develop software.

Like... I honestly feel bad for the Rust people, as I do not think the increasing attention they are going to get from Google is going to be at all positive for that ecosystem, any more than I think the massive pressure Google has exerted on the web has been positive or any more than the pressure Google even exerted on Python was positive (not that Python caved to much of it, but the pressure was on and the fact that Python refused to play ball with Google was in no small part what caused Go to exist at all).

(FWIW, I do miss Microsoft's being in the space, but they honestly left years ago -- Herb's existence until recent being kind of a token consideration -- as they have been trying to figure out a tactical exit to C++ ever since Visual J++ and, arguably, Visual Basic, having largely managed to pivot to C# and TypeScript for SDKs long ago. That said... Sun kicking Microsoft out of Java might have been really smart, despite the ramifications?)
I don’t get much trouble myself personally either, but it shows up in the replies to the posts in my feed which isn’t great and why a good block feature is necessary.
I thought the same thing. Surely a random binary sequence will have some (small) repeating sequences? So as long as we can find them and (efficiently) mark their locations, we can have some small size reduction.

Which is basically what he’s done here. He’s cheating by marking the location of the repeating sequence using unique files, rather than some other actually more efficient location system.

This is a fun discussion! I think it helps to make compression feel more approachable for armchair enthusiasts.
You’d be swapping an open-source vendor independent API for a cloud-specific vendor locked one. And paying more for the “privilege”
Yeah it's going to suck for Americans as the US has to lower their total emissions to match the country of Denmark.
You're making the same mistake: the languages are different, but the script is the same (or trivially derived from the Han script). The Ideographic Research Group was well aware of this, having consisted of native speakers of the languages in question.
I’m still using an RSS reader for that very purpose. I want my trusted content displayed chronologically; miss me with the algorithm and the recommended influencers. I’ve been on the internet long enough to know what I want and how to find it.
You'd have to give me an example. YAML is certainly better at representing tables of data than a shell script is.
I mean, the way AT Proto is designed, moderation primarily happens on the app layer, not the protocol layer. So on an app like Bluesky, you can have a lot of moderation. But the protocol itself allows hosting arbitrary content in a distributed/decentralized way.
npm, maven, and NuGet have caused me far more problems in trying to reproduce builds than the OS package manager ever will.
you DO need to be a wizard to launch a large C++ project.

Yes, languages that are beginner friendly are ... friendlier. Yes, languages that stick to one or a small number of programming paradigms are friendlier. But if you want the "flexible efficiency and raw power of C" and "something higher level than C", C++ is your baby.

Maybe it would be better if we all used Java, Rust, and Go, but C++ sings its siren von Neumann song to the wizards, and there will always be wizard musicologists who steer their projects toward those rocks and, when they have just enough wax in their ears, they sail right past the rocks and come out the other side of the straits leading the rest of the fleet.

You can choose to follow them or not, for there's no shame in coming in 4th.
> just maybe not in Denmark

exactly, and we're talking about Denmark, after all
They're lucky they didn't get summarily shot in the eye sockets with "non lethal" pepper balls. BPD was a bunch of unaccountable thugs, and this "incident" was yet another for the highlight reel. When the Sox finally won the Series and we were all out celebrating on Comm Ave only to be attacked by those juiced-up-on-federal-terrorism-propaganda paramilitary fuckers, I was hoping I was going to get to bat one of their grenades back at them with the broom I was carrying (sweep!).
I'm not sure Threads ever had that much of a spike in usage beyond the first day of new accounts. Got the impression a huge number of people curious about it signed up due to the very easy onboarding if you already had an instagram, looked around a little and then never went back.

Outside of the tiny number of Threads users who didn't have an Instagram account beforehand, the act of registering to BlueSky is a far more engaged move than Threads ever had imo.
$25-$40 is insane. Spypoint offers 250 pics for free a month and 1000 for $6 a month. As long as you can connect to a cell tower (1 bar is enough). That probably covers 80 % of hunt properties.

What is there to respond to? "This thing may happen at some point in the future" isn't insight or commentary.

I can formulate a response, but it's already required more thought and effort than you seemed to have put into your comment. Engagement farming and bait isn't what HN is generally for.
Did thread have significant traffic to begin with? The last four to six times I logged on it was a ghost town.

> Lack of education led us here.

No. Belittling people for their lack of education led us here. People don't follow those who consistently treat them as barely-human tally marks that we (their betters) tolerate as long as they vote the right way. Eventually they get sick of being treated as less-than, and eventually someone comes along that makes those people feel important.

There are only really two reasonable ways out of Trump's populism at this point: learn from him and recognize the importance of the less-educated, or reduce the franchise and prevent people from voting unless they pass a certain educational bar (which not is not actually an option for so many reasons).

Any other approach will either take generations or is doomed to failure.
It then turn down to "soft" warfare. Iran will give some guy a missile to shoot your cargo ship. I'd like them to do that for countries that can't do anything though (ie: some countries in Africa). Good for the citizenry and no side-effects.
> All of us sharing a singular global network was an exceptional and ephemeral circumstance.

Did this happen at all? Social networks have always been balkanized by culture.
You've described the Terran Accord from "Human Domestication Guide".
> Other nations have socialized healthcare, where anyone can be treated. Other nations have calm safe and clean public transit. Other nation’s redistribute wealth and provide strong safety nets. Other nations don’t have mass violence. Other nations guarantee retirement and pensions. Other nations trust their governments.

I feel like this is very much in flux, and not a constant anywhere. And it's something that is contested over continually. In some places there have been generations of rising quality of life, but not everywhere, all at once.
I've tried many times to setup PowerDNS and never complete it because I get bogged down in the complexity. I saw they had an ansible / terraform script for deployments. Do you just use the team's docs or something else?
> Who would read it?

Presumably, normal people who want to interact with people they already know? interaction with journalists and politicians is valuable in an entirely different manner.
T-Mobile is claiming it will be available to anyone who has a SIM/eSIM from them: https://x.com/TMobileHelp/status/1860715395851882683
The duplication there is mostly to remain compatible or trivially transformable with existing encodings. Ironically, the two versions of your example "A" do look different on my device (Android), with a slightly lower x-height for the Cyrillic version.
> My standard lecture teaching developers how to interact with K8s takes almost precisely 30 minutes to have them writing Helm charts for themselves

And I can teach someone to write "hello world" in 10 languages in 30 minutes, but that doesn't mean they're qualified to develop or fix production software.
Both are needed. If you want to transmit this solution from one computer to another you need to store the size of each file (or insert a fancy delimiter that takes even more space).
That makes a lot of assumptions about the nature of the content provided by the recommendation algorithms, as well as human nature. A good recommendation engine, for example, would recognize when someone either likes a broad range of sources politically speaking, or likes a neutral region.

Conversely, it's unclear that a recommendation engine would be able to predict what would be best at "disrupting an echo chamber", and more importantly, when that is desirable, and what "desirable" even means. It's also unclear that the first model is successful at all in disrupting echo chambers, as opposed to exacerbating or amplifying existing positions. I think there's good reasons to think that provocative can be less effective if anything.
Centurylink ran fiber down the nearest highway to my rural Oregon property a couple of months before Starlink became available. AFAIK the timing was more coincidence than anything, but you're entirely right about the logistics of fiber being non-trivial. As usual, last mile is the hardest part. Even with fiber at the highway, the only service Centurylink would offer us was 10Mbps DSL. I bet they would have tun fiver to my house for $$$$$, but Starlink is plenty fast and it would almost certainly take a decade or more to recoup the one-time costs of getting fiber installed all the way to my house.

Tariffs are a good way to ensure you still have a domestic capability. If Germany/korea/japan/China outcompete all US auto makers and they die, along with it goes a ton of jobs, manufacturing knowledge & capacity, cultural influence, an ability to keep capital flowing domestically, downstream suppliers, and ability to change factories from autos to military equipment in wartime. If China just keeps taking industry, then all we have left is an outpouring of all capital and a bunch of “content creators” left. Not a good prospect.

US auto companies already try to compete globally in situations with/without tariffs. That provides plenty of competition too.
Both sides have become ridiculous and unreasonable. Neither have any of the morals they are talking about.
So in your opinion, what hat would be the standout 80s American cars for enthusiasts and collectors?

Off the top of my head, there’s:

- bronco

Anything else would be selected primarily for idiosyncratic nostalgia reasons (eg “this is the faux-wood station wagon I grew up with”)
Any file upload can be used for unintended purposes, eg encoding files into static to upload to youtube and all other sorts of tomfoolery: https://github.com/boehs/awesome-cloud-storage-abuse
> Neither was the case with me. If you want intellectual stimulation, just go talk to the professors!

Many of the professors don't make their own slides. They just read stuff someone else wrote and pretend to understand it. Then they proceed to buy a test bank and grade us on content they don't fully grasp.

I don't even care about the education; it's just wanting to meet like-minded people and not being able to.

Really, the only thing that's motivating me is the job I'm going to after graduation. I did a 16-month internship, and I don't think I've ever been happier/more emotionally fulfilled in my life.

The worst part is when you want to bring along people that are not as much of a wizard as you are. I've been prototyping some multiplayer, online video game with MMO-like sharding for a while now, mostly the backend and core stuff for the project and wanted to get two of my friends on the project to develop the gameplay logic which is largely done through a dynamic scripting language, but some features (that, say, I did not foresee needed yet), require source changes to expose the APIs to the scripting language, now, these guys are capable of doing these changes but the onboarding process for a single potential co-developer is such a pain, I basically have to explain to them how to download a compiler, a package manager like vcpkg (which wasn't even that much usable for these types of things pre-versioning, and is still not working properly - i.e. trying to pin LuaJIT version to 2.0.5 for VM bytecode compatibility will attempt to build LuaJIT with cl.exe on Linux), a build system like CMake, and so on, then guide them through all the steps to get the compiler, the build system, and the libraries working, and then hope that in the end they will actually work and not force you to spend an entire day over a remote desktop software trying to get them to become productive.
Some people are hypermobile and no amount of strength training will fix that. After many years of trying to get various types of ergonomic chairs and standing desks to work I eventually gave up and got a reclining chair.

Why do you think Kuiper is dead in the water?
> why Farmland?

Because trees don't grow well in the ocean? :)

There is developed areas (cities/towns/industry) and farm land.

Most of the land not suitable for farming was turned into farm land. Through extremely hard work over the past 150 years. Like straightening rivers, draining marshes, and planting up the heath.
Hardware takes a long time. Adding phone-tablet-laptop convergence features to future Tensor silicon is a good start. Those features can be used by tablet hardware partners or even future Pixel phones when connected to a dock.
I've studied in the area and, as a bit of a night person, often drove past at night when driving to or from parents. A very cool sight, though the smell is often less pleasant :D - presumably nothing toxic, that would be illegal, but it does smell bad. Kind of like burning plastic, but without the harshest components of that smell.

Anyway, cool that Germany still has the biggest of something ~heavy industry.
