I bought a Bunn VP-17 commercial coffee maker over a decade ago and use that. It makes a fresh pot in 3 minutes and it can make 4 gallons of coffee an hour.

Edit: I just looked at the prices these go for currently and I definitely did not pay that much for one. At the time it was around $200 instead of the $400+ they sell for today.

They are not that hard to find on eBay. Unfortunately, here in Europe they are quite rare, but I bet that, in the US, there are abandoned warehouses full of these.
I think Avicenna also deserves a mention as another way educated people would naturally interact with Aristotelian thought.
There’s got to be more to it than just “playing as the bad guys”. There’s at least one Battlefield game where you can play as the Nazis. But I don’t think that includes committing atrocities. If the next Battlefield game included Nazi-mode where you get to re-enact El Alamein from Rommel’s perspective, then it could be viewed as an interesting exercise in alt-history. However, if it included Nazi-mode with the objective of righteously industrializing genocide, then I expect it would be viewed as beyond the pale.

So I wonder which route this game takes. Is it a straightforward combat simulator with one team that happens to be labelled Palestinian, or can you press F to rape?

Double standards happen in international politics. Things are regional and promoting certain events are considered a security threat as it’s not exactly as if there isn’t a problem with terrorism from radicalised Islam in the UK.

Also worth noting that the content of this is considered distasteful among the Muslim community here as well. It makes them look bad too.

Stuff like this sows the seeds of division between the communities.
I used Markwhen recently to make an interactive Gantt chart for a proposal to a collaborator and it went swimmingly. (We got the gig!) So, thank you!

For the record, I used the Obsidian plugin to develop, then deployed as static HTML.
As much as I love Ruby and Rails (and Elixir even more so), the IDE type checking of Typescript combined with LLMs is insanely productive. So I tend to agree, despite very much disliking node/JS and it's ecosystem. I've never been so productive in terms of getting ideas out of my head into functional products (ideate with Claude then start with bolt and move to Cursor after tapping that out).
Kind of a niche, but the open world Spiderman video games stopped including the Chrysler Building due to licensing issues after it was bought by new owners in ~2019
I was a fine dining chef for 17 years. If you were in San Francisco during the 90s, I might have cooked for you. A simple way to increase demand is to remove or change the least popular menu item every week or every month. This technique has been so successful for me I wouldn't waste much time doing anything else. Once I made a Napoleon pastry for a desert special while at La Folie on Polk st. which sadly closed recently. I had extra pastry cream and made Paris-Brest because we never threw out food. One waitress sold Napoleon on every table and the other waitress sold nothing but Paris-Brest. The dishes were fundamentally the same so I made both anytime I did one or the other as a special because waitstaff for reasons not explained in the article will sell nothing but one and others the other. I made cheese dishes to sell before the desert and fruit soups in the summer. This is the mid 90s and we were tracking data. The chef pulled me aside and showed me the sales from the previous month because I sold 1.2 deserts per customer.

Nonetheless, for the last six years I cooked I was a private chef on a mega yacht. People ask me if the guests told me what they want to eat. I say never because I never asked what people want to eat. I cooked what I want to eat and then make enough for the guests and crew. It is the best menu strategy. In fine dining, the customers make decisions all day long and in the case of being a private yacht chef, the guests are making million and billion dollar decisions. The last thing they want to do is have to decide what to eat for dinner. The family I cooked for rarely ate off the boat. And when they did it was because I said something like, "I hear there is a very good restaurant in St. Barts named ....," which was code for "I want the night off."

I believe the reason one waitress would sell every last Paris-Brest and the other would sell every last Napoleon was because they told the guests in the restaurant what they wanted to eat for desert. They made the decision for the guests.
This is utter hyperbole. The kind of rhetoric stirred up by Musk et al, but not even remotely true.
The single greatest restaurant trick is to give the table one wine list, so they're much more inclined to share several bottles instead of each drinking what they want.
I just went over a year worth of updates/release summaries and nothing suggest that Oct 7 attacks were added! If it's judging by this [1]:

> The game drew the attention of terror police because it included scenes of players paragliding into an Israeli army base and killing soldiers.

That's the only connection to the Oct 7 attacks.

Also when you look at the graphics and gameplay, the 'combatants' are all in military style uniforms. Nothing even remotely suggest there are civilians involved.

> COD famously did this for the airport scene.

Wasn’t it just an intro where you play as bad guys to provide background for the conflict? The game wasn’t fully based on playing as bad guys.
Why would you ask the other commenters on Hacker News this, to try to work it out from first principles? It looked more like you were trying to cast doubt on the work these scientists have done because you’re either reflexively contrarian, think they’re making it up, or both.

If you really want to know, the paper has citations, and those references will have citations as well.

Tweets inciting violence and hate crimes. Which led to actual riots and attempts at lynching of immigrants.
As a sysadmin in a mixed shop in the early 1990s I found that I could do just fine with traditional CLI and scripting tasks without using HP-UX's SAM or Sun's Solstice tools, but AIX's SMIT and smitty really got in the way of that sort of cheap and dirty automation. I understood the purpose of all those tools, but AIX pretty well made SMIT and smitty obligatory and that did not sit well with me back then. In the context of what you've said comparing SMIT and systemd, I would agree based on my experiences of way back then.
I very much enjoy the cat and mouse game of assumptions regarding part 2, it always makes me happy when the second part is just a simple adaptation of the existing solution.
Just thought you might want to know - it's "per se" not "per say"/variations thereof.
Basically:

The colors on the screen will look more like on a photo print. In addition, if your monitor supports more than 8 bits per pixel color information, then you'll be able to see more vibrant colors.
The marketing and the reality are somewhat different. Ignoring the fact that “the west” isn’t one political regime, it is about balance. While the US prides itself in allowing people to run around cosplaying as nazis under the guise of freedom, other countries consider that to be offensive and would legislate against it.

It’s a wide spectrum. Any extreme of censorship and a complete lack of censorship and control will quickly lead to the decline of society. Nuance is where everything is. No absolutes.

Great write-up and theory, holds up well against the observations others have shared here
Show HN: Connect any Open Data to Claude (and soon, any other LLMs)
Problem: LLMs need context data to give accurate answers and thousands of great publicly available datasets remain vastly unexploited. Anthropic’s MCP servers are awesome, but we need many more servers and an easy way to discover them.

What if it took only one command to connect any LLM to any open dataset?

Open Data MCP, a 2-in-1 solution:

1. Access Open Data:
- 10 seconds setup to query any integrated Open Data MCP server from Claude (and more to come)
- Simple CLI tool

2. Access Open Data:
- Create your own Open Data MCP server(s)
- Get templates, guides, and community
- Get instant distribution — your data becomes discoverable by all users via our CLI

What’s next?

A) Build many Open Data MCP servers to make all the Open Data truly accessible

B) Make Open Data available to all LLM applications (beyond Claude)

The bottleneck is A)!

Call to all Hackers! We need the community’s help to build MCP servers for the millions of public datasets out there, e.g., from governments, public entities, companies, and NGOs!

What Open Data would you expose? How about building your own Open Data MCP server?

Go go go!

Red Harvest is in there? You can be sure that number of film and TV writers, and perhaps directors and producers, have set their alarm clocks for that one. https://crimereads.com/the-strange-cinematic-afterlife-of-re...
Indeed. I think an important concern is what constitutes a "full application". I think that's where the community (I've even seen this at my own agency) has lost the plot a bit.

> I am the TL of all the setting pages

Ok, now I'm intrigued. If you're interested, I'd love to hear more about this. As someone who has (aside from a 2 year stint at Microsoft) only worked on relatively small teams (15 max) I'd love to hear more about what it's like to work on a team that's responsible for the settings pages. If you're interested, I'd be happy to connect for a chat. I just added my contact info to my profile here. If not, no worries! Cheers.
The opening scene in their Steam page is Hamas fighters dropping down into Israel (flags visible) with paragliders.

I don't have a side here but that is in really bad taste, and not comparable to any other mainstream shooter.
Yeah I don't understand the particular revulsion to showing ID here. The concept of showing your ID to get access to something is very well embedded across alcohol, driving, cigarettes, your myGov account, Medicare, air travel, all sorts.
Money can't appear and disappear. There should be always a destination. It helps accounting a lot. If someone owes anyone, liabilities increases (active/passive accounts), but this liability is spent somehow, which could become an asset (Goods Purchased using a Loan), so you can track all the chain through account statements.

Destination is the key. You can't just arbitrarily change an account balance using a transaction in a ledger. There should be a destination and this the second record.

This what GAAP, IFRS and even all the Basels for banks describe in strict detail. But every accounting system and practice is based on double entry and not just keeps the balance sheet consistent but adds a meaning to every transaction using predefined types of accounts.
I was skeptical about whole thing, but then getting Jewish pogroms in the middle of freaking Amsterdam in 2024 wasn’t on my bingo card. Some things are better be blocked for good.

And before I get “but Counter-Strike!” - it is set in imaginary universe with made up factions.
According to post by YouTube, the game is banned in Pakistan as well:

Anyway, trying to actually prevent a program from modifying its own memory is really hopeless, right? So any promises beyond “syntactic sugar” would be resting on a poor foundation, perhaps even dangerously misleading.
Knuth vol 2 has a nice discussion of floating point operations and shows how to reason about them. Wilkinson's classic "Rounding Errors in Algebraic Processes" (1966) also has a good discussion.
Unfortunately, public domain isn't everything. There are lots of works that we know of and that we should be able to share with one another, but it's hard to come by copies. To give one example:

The novel Red Harvest from 1929 is listed as entering the public domain next month. But the thing is that prior to being published as a novel, it was serialized in Black Mask magazine, and since all installments were published pre-1929, they're all already in the public domain.

The trouble, though, is that despite being public domain, actually getting your hands on these issues, whether in real life or figuratively as scans is something that poses a challenge—we simply don't have easy access to this material.

And that goes for lots of other stuff that we know about but don't have copies at hand.
Eh, the TPM is a hell of a lot less functional than security processor on a modem arm board. You can seal and unseal based on system state, but once things are unsealed, it's just in memory
The video in their steam page starts with the October 7 scenes in-game.
Generally these are the drag & drop visual editors like Microsoft Power Apps and the like.

Like the article said, my experience is that they're Great!™ until they're not, at which point you're painted into a corner.
No one has been specifically prosecuted for speech as far as I am aware of. The individuals locked up were quoted as being prosecuted for speech by less than accurate media and were persistent offenders and violated their release or suspended sentence terms.
Wars are not due to overcrowding. Wars are fought because of religion and geopolitics.
This feels like the exception that proves the rule. Gitlab has one of the largest Rails codebases on earth. It's also been built by a decentralized remote engineering org from the start. I think that explains a lot.

Compare that to my personal experiences and that of my colleagues who work heavily with Rails: We show up to a new job at any level of seniority, spend a week or two learning the codebase, and immediately have a firm grasp of all the major components of the application. And I want to stress _firm_ grasp, since everything from the model structure to the ORM to where you can expect to find tests is standard.

Obviously no framework or convention will hold perfectly in the extremes
Life is tough, unspeakably horrible things happen daily. Never feeling happiness would be on the bad end of even that spectrum.

But nevertheless, as someone who is acutely aware that unspeakable horrors surround us, an accurate prediction of never feeling happiness again doesn't logically lead to feeling a sense of hopeless, so it doesn't follow that depressed people are more likely to be working from an accurate world model.

The logical thing to do is to either look for ways to feel happiness or ignore it and salvage some meaning from whatever is left besides happiness. Easier said than done I know, particularly for someone who is depressed. But logic is what it is.
Nothing beats aws tbh, the level of extra detail aws adds, like emailing and alerting a gazillion times before making any changes to underlying hardware, even if non disruptive.
Robust <24 hour support from detailed, experienced and technical support staff, a very visible customer obsession laced experience all-around.
Ovh has issues with randomly taking down vps/baremetal instances at random with their support staff having no clue/late non-real time data on their instance state, they lost a ton of customer data in their huge datacenter fire 2 yrs ago, didnt even replicate the backups across multiple datacentres like they were supposed to, got sued a ton too.

I use OVH because the cost reduction supremely adds up for my workloads (remote video editing/ custom rendering farm at scale with a lot more cheaper OVH s3 suitable for my temporary but too many asset workload with high egress requirements) but otherwise I miss AWS and get now, just how much superior their support and attention to detail is.
Traditional publishing can move fast when it wants to, but it usually doesn't want to pay the rush fees. I've worked on projects that went from manuscript to finished books in a couple of months. You have to do things like split proofreading jobs and pay freelancers extra to turn things around in a few days.

Most of the time the schedule has little to do with technology. Where I work, sales and publicity want to have first-pass proofs seven months before pub date, so they can do sales and line up reviews before the book is distributed. For specialized books, you might be able to shorten that, knowing you aren't going into every bookstore.
Hanging your name on things has always been a double-edged sword in any context, but science is actively held back by cults of personality. Your contributions might be foundational, but your legacy is harmful.
If 0 is not an allowable value for b is necessary but not generally sufficient.
No harm, no foul. :) You might very well be right, but I chose to interpret it literally (there are lots of people that are otherwise pleasant that I don't get along with and that's fine) rather than as an insult.

I actually had a huge laugh about it, because I was reading R.A Salvatore's Starless Night which is peak nerd material and not even a good book, I read this trash literally because it's D&D. Doesn't get much nerdier than that!
very good point - if everyone could sleep 2 hours we’d be working 999 hours
How do you know when it’s out of Alpha? Also why do people even consider letting it anywhere near the public in let’s face it a completely unfinished buggy state. It’s not unique to you just a mini rant.
I have enough side projects on the back burner as it is. I even picked up a data processing one over thanksgiving.
I'd love to know! Too bad this website only gives a small selection of what those items are, despite the entire lists already being published elsewhere! Very useful, thanks Hacker News!
The first year was the best year for me. It was really fun and I think I got 22/24 days done. After that my participation rate has been shocking, I really want to do it but I get this weird anxiety that I'm not quick enough.

Which is weird because that is not a thought that entered my mind when I did it for the first time. It was pure fun!
> pogrom: an organized massacre of a particular ethnic group

Not what happened in Amsterdam by any measure. Israelis started a row on the streets and got backslash from the local Arab population. No casualties.
I actually enjoy it in this context, not so much in JIRA.
Oh, Here we go again.

“How can West call itself freedom of speech if I can’t even spew nazi crap, dress as a terrorist or offend women and minorities?!”
An offline version could be an "Exit" advent calendar game. Now that advent has started, you might find them discounted at a local board game shop.

Note it's a single-use game.

I would expect a cube to be measured in cubic feet rather than square feet.
you mean for the printer to print its own scaffolding?

Any scenario where the printer itself moves but continues to print an in-progress object requires the equivalent of auto-bed-leveling. But rather than checking the location of a fixed bed with known parameters, it would probably be checking the unfinished face of the printed object. Sounds challenging...
Saying 1/0=∞ means creating a new number system with ∞ as a number. Now you have to figure out all operations with ∞, like -1*∞, 0*∞, ∞*∞, ∞/∞, or ∞-∞.

Making wrong definitions creates contradictions. With 1*x=x, ∞/∞=1, the associative property x*(y/z)=(x*y)/z, and ∞*∞=∞:

∞ = ∞*1 = ∞*(∞/∞) = (∞*∞)/∞ = ∞/∞ = 1
Show me a fun game you could make out of Holocaust and I'll be impressed. You can't look at a game purely from mechanics perspective. Nazi flag is just red, white and black in an intricate order but it produces an emotional response in people. You can deconstruct it at some level, but in the end you're just hopping over trip-wires.
Another fascinating comment by motohagiography.

I wager the movement is less a rebellion of the few, and more the unbelief of the many. That is, people just don't believe there's a personal benefit to being virtuous. It's a completely rational calculation when there's no deep spiritual or religious belief in far-off rewards or punishments. Unfortunately, our age's contempt for belief in the "deep down" turns people to worship physical characteristics & preferences instead.
According to Israel's own figures 393 of the 1139 killed on October 7 were active duty military, so it's certainly possible to construct a game mission around it which does not involve actively hunting down civilians.
Different Ampere, not the ARM CPU people.
Honestly hetzner supoort has bren outstanding from my experience.
They are always there and very responsive using email
Yeah, that's my point: describing military-styled persons paragliding as "October 7 scenes" is really stretching it.
I don’t rely on LLMs as much as I did when copilot came out, but I 100% agree regarding static types: they make it so much easier to tell when the LLM is spewing nonsense. I probably wouldn’t use one at all with a dynamically typed language.
I didn't think I was disagreeing with you...
