Perhaps one can see it as the inverse of a tax on ICE vehicles without adding a tax? It will be revenue negative for the state but I think the net effect on consumers would be the same?

I guess one could argue that a tax on ICE vehicles are to pay for the externalities of pollution

Scheme is a general category of probably 100+ implementations of various versions of the language based on various specs and standards. Small educational languages based on R4RS, R5RS. Then there is the more controversial R6RS and later a R7RS small and attempts to define a R7RS large. Then there are 100+ of language extensions in various states described in SRFIs. The there is an official language standard IEEE Scheme, which is not widely used (AFAIK). Then there are various subsets of the language Scheme used in education. For example in SICP there is a minimal Scheme subset used in the book. Scheme also spawned its own dialects (or maybe derived language), like Racket, which then has a new dialect Rhombus...

Lisp is either a family of language families (Lisps, Scheme, Logo, ML, MDL, JavaScript, Dylan, Racket, R, ...)

or

a more narrowly defined family of languages (often recognizable because they identify as Lisp in their name) and based on the core from Lisp 1: Lisp 1, Lisp 1.5, BBN Lisp, Interlisp, Maclisp, Franz Lisp, ZetaLisp, Le_Lisp, EuLisp, muLisp, Common Lisp (a standardized language), Emacs Lisp, Standard Lisp, ISLISP (a standardized language), ...

You'll find often in the Scheme literature Lisp described as a different, but related/derived, language (more symbolic, less functional, more procedural, procedural macros, less clean, less systematic, more dynamic, ...). Scheme is seen more functional, more lexical binding, less procedural, more minimal, one namespace, cleaner, ...).
The downside to cloud run is you don't get a disk. If I could get a pd attached at runtime to each instance, it'd be a lot more compelling.
So, what, you’d advocate declaring all function parameters and returns as void* to maximize flexibility with respect to future changes in requirements?
There's a case to be made for expecting misdirection more often, but the fact remains that most people, including malicious actors, don't have the foresight and skill to pull it off. You do need both. Unless you plan a consistent fake story from the very start of an identity, execute it consistently, and hermetically isolate it from any others, you'll leave clues.
> As for the cable, all it needs is a punched hole in the wall, hidden behind the screen, and another directly beneath it by the floor.

Likely against code to do this. Power cables are not meant to go behind the wall. There are products that exist to do this, but please don't just run the actual power cable this way.
There are genuine reasons for running multiple clusters. It helps to sometimes keep stateful (databases generally) workloads on one cluster, have another for stateless workloads etc. Sometimes customers demand complete isolation so they get their own cluster (although somehow its ok that the nodes are still VMs that are probably running on shared nodes… these requirements can be arbitrary sometimes).
Pixel 7a phone. Purchased for work, intended for infrequent use. I created a new Google account since I didn't want the phone associated with my personal account.

After a couple of months of inactivity, I needed access again. The finger print didn't work (not accepted after a time of inactivity), and I cannot remember the PIN or Google account. I'm essentially locked out.

I can easily prove I'm the rightful owner with an invoice or bank statement, however neither the retailer nor Pixel will do anything, despite multiple conversations.

It raises the question of who owns the device: The person who purchased it, or the person who initially set it up? The Pixel is designed for the latter. I would argue it should be the former since transactions can be verified through intermediaries, whereas anyone could have set up the device, however I understand the complexities of Google verifying retailer receipts.

So I'm left with an unusable device, and I've run out of possible PINs to try.

Hopes for the future:

- On initial setup, a big ugly warning about being permanently locked out, and that I should ideally add recovery options to the new account, and be careful in choosing the PIN

- Requirement for retailers that stock Pixels to accept refunds in these situations, either through the kindness of Google's non-evil heart, or consumer law ("fit for purpose"?).

Any suggestions for what to do with a "bricked" phone would be welcome!
> Alex Jones is upset the auction was sealed and they couldn’t attempt to outbid anyone else.

The problem is that the judge himself in the emergency hearing on the matter disagreed that the auction should have been closed.

EDIT: Give me a sec and I'll go pull up the recording where I heard it from. (The section in question on where I heard the court recording, with commentary from actual lawyers, on the matter is 2 hours long, so I gotta find the right timestamp for that part where the judge is not happy at all)

The original Russian colonization of Crimea brought in many Ukrainians as well, though, so that alone did not make it lean Russian so strongly by itself. The naval facilities in Sevastopol, though, meant a lot of military personnel with their families from all over the country would come and settle in the city, and that specifically tilts the popular opinion there today strongly towards imperial Russian irredentism.
Luddites were highly educated, skilled workers whose work was being replaced by machines. They just wanted to operate the machines and share in the increased productivity.

I bought about 20 halogen ceiling lights for my housei last year when we remodelled. The electrician installing them could not understand why I didn't go for LED. I mumbled something about CRI and R9, but it seemed to just confused him more.

Best decision ever. The lights are dimmable and they have such a beautiful glow. It's so noticeable that guests comment.

I also now buy halogen on sight from the hardware store and stockpile, as their days are surely numbered.
In compiler context, "devirtualization" I encountered usually meant compiling a virtual call to a direct call. See for example "Devirtualization in LLVM and Clang" on LLVM blog: https://blog.llvm.org/2017/03/devirtualization-in-llvm-and-c....

"Devirtualization" in this post is something different, being an inverse of virtualization which is an obfuscation technique to hinder reverse engineering.
Most control planes are not free anymore, they cost like 70$/mo on AWS & GCP. Used to be a while back.

The difficulty entirely depends on whether discarding the occasional invalid write is possible. If you can simply return an error and ignore the write/transaction, you're golden.

If you can't, it becomes incredibly complicated

A huge company is using unpaid artist's labour to create tools that will reduce the potential for these and all future artists to get any paid work at all in the future.

If you do find yourself wanting to create a cluster by hand, it's probably because you don't actually need lots of machines in the "cluster". In my experience it's super handy to run tests on a single-node "cluster", and then k3s is super simple. It takes something like 8 seconds to install k3s on a bare CI/CD instance, and then you can install your YAML and see that it works.

Once you're used to it, the high-level abstractions of k8 are wonderful. I run k3s on raspberry pi's because it takes care of all sorts of stuff for you, and it's easy to port code and design patterns from the big backend service to a little home project.

> Single file, 187 lines of JavaScript, no dependencies, does one thing and does it well.

Even though I understood your point, a cursory glance suggests it only maps a JavaScript object to a SVG. Hardly something with more than one responsibility, or something you need anything other than plain JavaScript to do.
They acknowledged the exact date in 2022 just before Windows 11 was released: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/lifecycle/products/windows...

But even then, what point are you even trying to make? Windows 10, like previous releases before it, when its support end, will mean it was supported for a solid 10 years. I mean, that's a lifetime in tech; 2015 was the iPhone 6s.

> Tesla has a better product

Isn't there room for a different "better product" for each individual?

You may like a MacBook and I may prefer a ThinkPad. One is not better than the other, it depends on our individual needs.

My Kia EV6 is a much better car for me than any Tesla.

Just a few of the many reasons:

Physical controls that are so much like my old gas Kia: A stalk for the lights. Another for the wipers. Plenty of buttons on the steering wheel that I can find by touch. And regen paddles like the gear shift paddles on some gas cars, so I can adjust the regen level without taking my eyes off the road. I only rarely have to use the touchscreen while driving.

Dual displays, with essential driving information right in front of me, and "infotainment" functions on the center display.

"Vegan suede" seats that feel like a high quality cloth seat and keep me cooler than a leather seat (vegan or not).

Of course if a Tesla is a better car for you, I have no quarrel with that. I'm glad you found the best car for yourself, just as I have.
> just use a PaaS like Google App Engine, Amazon Elastic Beanstalk, Digital Ocean App Platform, or Heroku.

This is the right way for web most of the time, but most places will choose k8s anyway. It’s perplexing until you come to terms with the dirty secret of resume driven development, which is that it’s not just junior engs but lots of seniors too and some management that’s all conspiring to basically defraud business owners. I think the unspoken agreement is that Hard work sucks, but easy work that helps you learn no transferable skills might be worse. The way you evaluate this tradeoff predictably depends how close you are to retirement age. Still, since engineers are often disrespected/discarded by business owners and have no job security, oaths of office, professional guilds, or fiduciary responsibility.. it’s no wonder things are pretty mercenary out there.

Pipelines are as important as web these days but of course there are many options for pipelines as a service also.

K8s is the obviously correct choice for teams that really must build new kinds of platforms that have many diverse kinds of components, or have lots of components with unique requirements for coupling (like say “scale this thing based on that other thing”, but where you’d have real perf penalties for leaving the k8s ecosystem to parse events or whatever).

The often mentioned concern about platform lock in is going to happen to you no matter what, and switching clouds completely rarely happens anyway. If you do switch, it will be hard and time consuming no matter what.

To be fair, k8s also enables brand new architectural possibilities that may or may not be beautiful. But it’s engineering, not art, and beautiful is not the same as cheap, easy, maintainable, etc.
I'll let you in on the joke. The joke is the demand for 100% availability and instant gratification. we're making services where anything less than 4 nines, which is 5 minutes month, is deemed unacceptable. three nines is 10 minutes a week. two nines is 15 minutes a day. there are some things that are important enough that you can't take a coffee break and wait for, but Kubernetes lets you push four nines of availability, no problem. Kubernetes is solving for that level of availability, but my own body doesn't have anything near that level of availability. demanding that from everything and everyone else is what pushes for Kubernetes level of complexity.
Maybe they realised what they were really doing after the fact and changed their minds. They can’t really do anything about it so they are doing what they can.

It a bit silly to think people won’t learn new information and change their minds.
Actofit body composition smart scale. They insist on tying measurements to phone numbers/profiles. I have to go to my phone, hit record and stand on it to sync. The login broke, so I left a play store comment and they denied the problem exists. Its very low in ratings thanks to too many angry fellow users.

Later I got one from Omron, an actual medical company. It stores my vitals without phone and displays almost all the data on device and autodetects user. There is syncing for my data which I can do once in a while. The app's headscratching/feature ratio is moderate but since it has no bullshit features its enjoyable.
No. Especially if one day the alternative solution (chip, OS) is good enough for the better hardware to draw people voluntarily to this alternative solution forgoing the default American solution.

Or in more direct speak: yes you can ban chips. It'll slow them down. Yes you can ban an OS. It'll slow them down.

But we've seen it with mobile chips in particular. All of them are fast and good enough for everyday use or can ANY of us REALLY tell the difference between an iPhone 16 Pro, 15 Pro or 14 Pro in day-to-day performance?

Chips as well as OS don't even have to become as good as the most modern Qualcomm/Apple chip or Android/iOS. As long as it becomes good enough for day-to-day use people will buy based on other differentiation factors (design, form factor, other capabilities such as battery run time, cameras, etc).
Yeah, hilarious. Now lets go back to working on open source so that corporations can use it and openai can train on it
>JavaScript float-to-i32 casts

To be clear, the behavior in question is Intel behavior that snuck its way into the JavaScript spec; ARM just doesn't wanna use the word "Intel" in public documentation. For similar reasons there's a few other places where there's an "alternate" execution mode that exists solely to emulate x86.

There's nothing wrong with resisting bad working conditions, unfair pay, or getting replaced by a machine without adequate social safety nets in place.

If businesses decide to replace workers with AI, then it's also their collective responsibility to pay for their retraining, or if that isn't possible their social security.
Are you worried about your wife, as you mention hormone issues?

My wife was depressed for a time after our first child. This was a difficult time for her and I felt like an absolute failure. My church minister asked me one day did I think my wife was depressed. My wife and I talked about it, she went to the doctor, took medication for a month or two and was back to her normal self. She had never taking similar medication before or during the last 30 years.

Do your bit, be a good provider and hopefully one day like myself and my wife you will be drinking hot chocolate in your child's apartment like we were last night, having a laugh and a chat.
Ask HN: Tips for iOS ASO?
I just launched my first iOS app (an app to track and discover books) on the App Store as a public beta.

What's worked for you in terms of app store optimization?

I've personally almost never discovered an app through the App Store itself, so I'm skeptical, but several friends have sworn by it as a growth channel.
Lopez is required to act in the best interest of the creditors, and the creditors can always get a better deal working with The Onion, because their interests are aligned.

> After next month's hearing, Judge Lopez would have the option to approve the sale, to order a new one or to flip the outcome and award Jones' media company to FUAC.

> But University of Florida Levin College of Law professor Christopher Hampson sees that third option as unlikely. He says the deal from The Onion and the families may be somewhat unusual, but it's not necessarily beyond the trustee's discretion. According to a court order, Murray has the authority to use his "reasonable business judgement" to set, modify and add "procedural rules that are reasonably necessary or advisable" and to select the "highest or otherwise best bid."

> "That is expansive language," Hampson says. "There are lots of totally fair ways of running an auction [and] it's not clear to me that the process was problematic in any way."

I don't see how America will smoothly transition to EVs. It feels like we'll live in an ICE/EV dichotomy for a long time. EVs work great for a lot of people, but not everyone with an ICE vehicle wants an EV. Given the current status quo, some of them will never want an EV.

A significant number of homes only have street parking available, thus no place to plug in. Not having access to home charging makes EV ownership a burden.

A lot of people live in massive multi-family dwellings, where charging infra is difficult or impossible to provide for all residents. If every resident switches to an EV, that's either a lot of load or everyone is left fighting over a limited number of charging stations.

Up north, EV range drops 30-50% during the winter. Maybe that's not a problem if you don't drive much, but most EVs already have shorter ranges than gas.

It seems incredibly impractical to have to schedule your life around EV shortcomings.
Outsider perspective:

- EVERYONE wants to keep chinese EVs out of their marketplaces, EU included. It's gov on gov subsidies fighting and you either accept your own markets being crushed by loss-leaders or you don't. The fact that people see this as a red v blue stuff is mind boggling.

- you play politics with your companies, you pay the price. This current admin had an EV summit and didn't invite the top dog? I mean, politics is supposed to be that thing where you swallow your pride and meet with people you don't like. They couldn't do that. What do they expect now?

In general the retconning and my team vs their team you do in the US right now is really on a different level. You have traditional eco camps shitting on ev companies, traditional anti-reds military hawks wanting to stay out of literally rendering the traditional enemies useless, you have that middle east stuff where camps are literally 180 of what they were 10 years ago. This world is going whack, and I can't believe people on the Internet don't see it, and still try to find ways to argue for "their team".

Luckily the people I meet IRL aren't as hyper radicalised as the online folks are. In both red and blue states, the people are ok. Reading stuff online you'd think there's a literal war going on. Hopefully this will pass in a few years...
And per ToS, accounts cannot be sold.

> How can you both think AI will do a soulless garbage job and that it will displace all the creative people who put their blood sweat and tears into doing art.

They don't, that's why they're saying 20% of creative departments will remain. The part that will go is the part that's already soulless - making ads in the style of the current trendy drama series or what have you.

> If you think it can be 20 times easier to make a movie, then it seems to me that it would be 20 times less impactful to make a creative work, since the market should quickly react to creative success by making a ton of cheap knockoffs of your work until the dead horse is so thoroughly beaten that it's no longer even worth paying an AI to spit out cheap knock-offs

That seems pretty backwards, given Jevons paradox. The ease of writing knock-off fanfiction didn't mean people stopped writing novels. The average novel probably has a lot less impact now than in the past, but the big hits are bigger than ever.
When you delve into badly-performing web apps, DOM is almost never the actual performance bottleneck. It’s other things they’re doing. And in the rare cases where DOM is the bottleneck, it’s always that they were abusing it.

As for this case, I have never encountered a web app with performance (throughput and latency) problems like this. Not anywhere near it.

Promoting competition is always good for the end consumer, and certainly Tesla doesn't need any help in that regard.

As for the politicization of this company through his owner, that law is nothing more than a small speed bump because for the 4 next years, people will be outraged the other way around - no doubt that a lot of laws will be passed to favor Tesla (and SpaceX, Starlink, etc.)

Honest question - why would you want stateful workloads in a separate cluster from stateless? Why not just use a namespace?
Or Unpoly. I've been working with it for a month now and it's a real pity such a robust library it gets so little attention.
I didn't mean to imply that, but that's my fault for just quickly using it as an example.

I do think there will be some slowdown of the technological development, but I think the situation will be similar to flying cars: regulations, social behavior, etc. will prevent AI from simply devouring everything. Specifically, I expect there to be a system which verifies humanity, and thus popular content will ultimately end up being verified-as-real content.
