I know how NAT works under FreeBSD and it doesn’t ignore remote IP/port. Would be surprised if Linux differs in this regard and most home router are based on Linux. I know little about CGNAT but one shouldn’t trust ISP with protection from unwanted connection and there is almost always a home router with one more NAT even if ISP uses CGNAT.

Huh, you're right. I thought it only kept record of the last visit to any URL, because that's what it shows in the GUI, but the DB does have prior records... It's weird how they went through the trouble of hiding entries in the GUI.
It's impossible to do graphics in pure C, so what are the alternatives? Whatever you do at whatever level of abstraction/portability (SDL, OpenGL, Metal, Vulkan, Unity, ...), you're leveraging zillions of lines of other people's code.

The only way arguably you could do it in pure C (with undefined behavior) is in enviroments that let you write straight to graphics framebuffers without any abstraction layer and even when you can't do keyboard or mouse input in C without library and/or kernel support.
Anything that weakens Iran and its proxies is good news. They‘ve been the main reason for instability in the region. The cutting of supply routes to Hezbollah is another nail in the coffin for a militia that‘s kept Lebanon from eventually becoming a functional state, instead keeping it in perpetual war or near-war with Israel, which only serves Iran and the people Iran supports financially. Iran has torpedoed any attempts at normalizing relationships between Arabs and Israel even though most in the region just want to move on and prosper. It also weakens Russian influence in the region, who’ve had the same aim as Iran: Sow chaos and destruction to weaken US allies and prevent anyone aligned with the US from taking the lead in the region.
Show HN: Run10K Trainer – Personalized Training Running Plans for Your 10K Race
Hi HN! I’m a professional runner and programmer, and I built *Run10K Trainer*, the app I wish I had when I started training. It’s a web and mobile app that generates personalized plans for 10K races, tailored to your schedule, experience level, and race date.

After months of development, I’d love your feedback to help make it even better for runners everywhere. Does this sound like something you’d use?

I don't know what kind of package manager you were using, but I've never seen an update take a good part of an hour before Nix.

Seriously, are we going to shame people who can't afford to buy lots of storage?? My smaller laptop has only 250GB, but that's freaking plenty if I stick with apt. But I can barely run Nix on it.

I wonder how many people actually have seen those index card shelves[1] IRL. Everyone have heard enough of music box analogy, the Tacoma Narrows, etc, but I don't remember this technology covered often enough.

One set of shelves has cards for books sorted by its ISBN. Another by titles, by authors, by keywords, ... libraries(of books, of employee records, of manufacturing blueprints...) would have had whole rooms worth of these shelves for searching and indexing.

Data normalization, SELECT, and JOIN, are just separating information on cards into separate shelves, hand picking cards, and laying out matching ones side by side on photocopiers. I've never had to mess with it, but apparently that was literally the database.

> I'm sad because I no longer an doing my civic duty to stay informed and have an educated opinion

At the same time, you must have been questioning whether you were staying informed, or was used as a democracy puppet by lobbyists. It takes a lot more energy to stay informed than to just read news.

Here in Switzerland, the people vote on lots of things, four times a year. But the participation rates are always 40-60%. It's almost like people only need to stay informed about the particular questions they care about. I find it a refreshing organisation, compared to my native Sweden. When I only vote for politicians, I need to know their opinions on everything. That, I find, is exhausting.
I've always wondered why the name "Direct Rendering Manager" was chosen, given the existing definition of DRM. It could have just as easily been "Direct Rendering Layer" or some other alternative.
Aaaah! That’s what it is.
The New Product Liability Directive
Russia has not been winning on the ground. It's two and a half years into the war and Russia is still stuck contesting edge territories. Russia has overwhelmingly larger numbers, but with as high as 7:1 casualties to Ukraine and with a significant increase in casualties over the last eight months.

The frontline is stabilized and the ruble is collapsing. What exactly is being won here?
Absolutely..check Kevin rose's X account and Digg X account.
The western aid was an important lesson on the importance of proper timing for investments: it was always too little to win, but too much to loose outright. Had Ukraine been able to strike with full force from the beginning, the world could look very different right now.
It shouldn’t be surprising that a country with a war economy has a higher first derivative at producing material, the question of import is

1. What is the difference between absolute quantities comparing against all relevant players,

2. How long would it take to bridge the gap at current production rates, and

3. Can that rate of production be sustained long enough for it to alter any fundamentals?

The point to rebut isn’t that Russia is making more, it’s whether they can continue to do so ongoingly before Ukrainian advances, regime falter or economic collapse, US/China step-in, or internal unrest will dramatically weaken or make the current Russian negotiating position untenable.
It is this toxic platform and the people it attracts. So many down votes and flagged posts because of the type of people here. Drives all the successful happy people away and keeps the negative tone alive here.
Assad was backed by Iran & Iran has been bad news for that region for some decades. the new coalition is backed by Turkey, and since they share a border it makes a lot more sense than Iran ever did.

way too early to say much more right now. next few weeks/months should be interesting though.
“Actual Syrians” isn’t a thing for this — it’s like wanting to hear from ‘actual Americans’ what they thought of the US election.

Depending on the ethnicity, religion and politics of those Syrians you’ll get wildly different views.
Most Syrians I know have unbounded love for their country and their people. You'd be surprised by the number of people who are not motivated purely by financial gain.
I'm actually still disappointed that they did not chose some bold and modern solution. France has no shortage of gothic cathedrals, many of which are much more interesting than Notre Dame of Paris, this was a once in a century chance to do something completely new and interesting, and they got cold feet. Such a shame. It's still very good work, but it will forever feel like a missed opportunity to me.
Yes, and even a few new diggnation YouTube videos. They're coming back!
Well, technical IS supporters (who did not participated in killings themself) are political imprisoned citizens as well.

The point is, that no matter what they did, they are all free now.

The reason Lybia turned to shit was French and US secret services battling through interposed assassinations and supporting people with army but not popular support.

Us secret services seems to have won (at least Hillary's leaked emails make it seems US services got what they wanted), but since their candidate was really bad,the country split (not saying that what the French did was any better by any mean, but at least their initial candidate,pre assassination, had grassroot support.)

Still, the original Sin was French, so they're the main culprit of what happened in Lybia. Especially since it's possible that the war was started to remove witnesses of illegal campaigns fonds transferred from Gaddafi to Sarkozy, but we only have circumstancial evidence. Mostly because Gaddafi died shortly after being captured alive in the hand of french-supported rebels, his finance minister unluckily drowned himself in Vienna, and one witness retracted himself after a weird assassination attempt.
The ISP I own will give you dedicated if you desire. We charge an uplift for the installation (due to additional splicing) and a little bit more on the monthly price for the consumption of dedicated ports and cores rather than using the PON. However, as is the case with most provided services like this, the majority of the cost is covering the risk of the SLA. The likelihood of an outage is not too dissimilar to the likelihood of outage on PON, so really it becomes a financial and service guarantee more than an uptime guarantee. As a healthy middle ground, we will also offer BGP on regular services and we do a bit of a referral system with a couple of other friendly ISPs, who will also do BGP. I actually prefer multi homing to “dedicated” from a resilience perspective because it separates you from the entire network stack all the way to the transit and peering.

Ask HN: Nineteen Year Old Seeking Career Advice
Hi everyone. I'm a second year in college and I'm really struggling with having a career vision for myself.
I enjoy many subjects including programming, biology, physics, math, chemistry, medicine, electrical engineering (robotics) and everything in between. I could see myself pursuing any of these fields yet I realize that the US college system essentially guides you to commit to one (or two) fields and get a job.

Some advice I've seriously considered is just reading and learning as much as possible then starting a company when I come across an opportunity [0].

Yet my main qualm with this strategy is lack of job security. I.e., what do I do if the startup fails?

Also, is it worth it to go to graduate school or medical school? How do I decide?

Thank you in advance for any advice and I'd love to clarify if I've been unclear

Thank you

> how many of them could have done anything to make a difference for their given situation?

Lots of them. Pretty much all the major players were democracies and it isn't that unreasonable to think that democracies can be persuaded to do sensible things. It is hard to evaluate counterfactuals but it is certainly plausible that if they'd actually understood how dire the situation was from better information the course of events was changeable. There are a lot of 1/10,000 people out there. It really is just a game of convincing a few of them to behave sensibly and they move mountains politically.

I'd suggest that from your perspective it isn't the information making you feel hopeless, your starting point is that of helplessness and hopelessness and the information is just making that more apparent. The world is hardly hopeless and the people in it are not helpless. Just ineffective on average and very poorly informed - problems that can be minimised by lots of information.
As one such masochist, I hesitate because the tabs aren't tabs. I'm not saying there should be tabs, but this is different. I tend to see a page and open interesting links in new tabs, so the tabs to the right of the current tab are related to this tab. So, there's a tree-like organization to the tabs, even though they're presented linearly. In this browser, that kind of information seems lost, at least in its stock configuration.

Windows are also about particular topics, but here all windows have all buffers available.

The fuzzy search doesn't really do anything for me. I'm not really interested in seeing e.g. all Amazon tabs together. I'd prefer to see some Amazon tabs that are about particular selections of books next to other tabs of various URLs and titles that are also about those particular selections of books, and in the tree/linear-like order they were opened in.

Also, the tree-like order isn't always from following a link. I may, for example, check out a book on an Amazon product page, and a reviewer makes mention of other similar books, so I may open tabs next to this one that search those titles somewhere (DDG/Amazon/etc).

If I were to make this usable for me, it's probably by automatically keeping record of what buffer I was on when I opened a new one, then making a buffer that presents this information in a modifiable tree. The fuzzy search can be replaced by a search in this buffer. It would simply scroll to the spot, so I'd have access to ancestors and descendants from the match.

A benefit of generalizing to buffers rather than webpages is that presumably I could make simple placeholder buffers that act as parents representing topics where I would have used windows in the past.

Also, I'd need keybindings to walk the tree like Ctrl-Tab and Ctrl-Shift-Tab. Maybe also a way to set the root node for a window, to limit the navigation of Ctrl-Tab in it.

Another thing is that it also facilitates closing tabs when one's done with a topic. Firefox has "close all tabs to the right" for that, though one can also middle click a tab repeatedly until enough tabs have been closed to close a (sub)topic. The buffer tree would simply need to have some "close this and descendants" type of option.
Somewhere between 0 and None, which is a good thing for literally everyone. Unless we’re now cheering for ethnostates and a full blown Turkish invasion. Even the Syrian Kurds don’t want independence, rather just autonomy as part of a multiethnic Northern region.
Sorry that my comment read that way. That was not my intention at all.

On the other hand, I understand what a photo like that means for the person who’s taking the photo. I’m both an amateur photographer and used to play in a symphony orchestra.

In my case, I both don’t want to potentially distract a performer, and don’t want to break my immersion and give my brain an excuse to be lazy. At the end, I leave every event happier and more satisfied.

Everybody is different and this is my perspective.
I’d imagine it will remain a reasonable choice for quite some time since it’s just a bunch of primitive operations.
HTS was at some point related to al-Qaeda. This hasn't been the case for almost 10 years. The biggest sign that this isn't only appearances is that they've pivoted from religious rhetoric to that of liberation. I don't care who the US has a price on. It's not a sign of anything at this point.
I am an unbeliever and I visited a lot of catedrals, basilicas, mosques and synagogues in my life.

You can admire the art and the dedication of the builders without being religious. France itself is a secular state with a division of the State and the Church, and yet President Macron is there, because Notre Dame is a national treasure, not just a religious one.

Also, don't kid yourself about the history of the Church and money. While always verbally pro-poor, in practice, it also always sought connections among the rich. Obscene riches of the high clergy were one of the triggers for the Reformation.

Plus ca change...
Most Syrians I know are celebrating. I could have a biased demographic tho.
Turkey is relatively liberal (for an islamic country) and they backed the "revolutionaries". I'm kind of wondering what Jordan is going to do in the coming weeks/months.

"Sure, it can always be worse"

Yes, I would argue the islamic state was indeed worse. And so far I see nothing preventing them or a similar force taking hold again. I mean turkey is the moderating factor here and turkey under Erdogan has gone the authorian islamic way since a while.
Jesus Christ, this blog is absolute trash, peddling a massive number of conspiracy theories, from vaccines causing autism to FDA doing massive coverups. Even going as far as to blame the Biden administration for things going on during the COVID vaccine period (when Trump was in power).

Honestly, just _fuck_ off with this nonsense. "I have a treasure trove of data that shows vaccines cause autism, and it can be verified. But I won't release it, but trust me."

I'm sorry the world isn't more interesting and there's no shadow government in place pulling the strings. The simple fact is people have always been autistic, and just went undiagnosed. I could even see arguments for it being less apparent when those children didn't have the comfort of the Internet to avoid developing their social skills etc.

If the French welfare state, by far the most expansive on the planet (France spends around a third of its GDP on social expenses), is too small for you, you will be sour for the rest of your life, because your demands are unrealistic.

In practice, most people including me prefer to spread public spending into various projects, and yes, that means that the homeless don't get an absolute priority.

I suspect that you, in your private life, do precisely the same. If you wanted to live your preached values, you would have to live Mother Theresa-like life of ascetism, spending your days and your income to help the poor instead of buying yourself nice electronic gadgets and eating good food.

Do you do that? If not, why do you complain about the rest of the world not doing it either?
There's no one-to-one comparison, but a decent one would be a drug cartel making and selling fentanyl. Sure, the orders come from civilization at large, I guess, as if no one were to buy the stuff then they wouldn't produce it. IG Farben also has similarities.

I don't think anyone is arguing that economy-wide changes aren't needed, nor did anyone ever propose that if only we took down IG Farben, WW2 would've ended.

Correct relative blame assignment is still very important, as the Farben CEO to Nuremberg and the screw factory worker should be rehabilitated regardless of having played a minor (yet still essential) role.
I kept hearing that "air fryers are just convection ovens" and was very confused, because I know air fryers use a fan. But it turns out Americans call fan ovens, the one type of oven that specifically does not rely on convection, "convection ovens". Another thing on my list of things Americans say that mean specifically the opposite.

It makes me wonder, do Americans take into account the fan when following recipes? Common wisdom is to lower the temperature by 10 degrees for a fan (assuming recipes are for a real convection oven). Or are all American recipes written for fans?
Rebel? How about we just call them for what they are, Turkish proxies in the north and US proxies in the east.
> * how will Turkey negotiate with this facing the pkk and Kurdish nationalism?

Hopefully Turkey does the honorable thing, recognizes an independent Kurdish state and apologizes for decades of oppression, murder and state-sanction terror? Unlikely though.

All of this is irrelevant if Ukraine crumbles first.
That would be nothing short of cultural vandalism. It's certainly the prerogative of the French people to do that if they wish, but it would be an awful thing. The world doesn't need more ugly modern buildings.
>Almost seven million Syrian refugees might have the chance to return home and rebuild now. That’s great news.

Just because they might have chance to return home and rebuild doesn't mean that they will. Somalis arrived in the 90's, and they never returned back there except for vacations.
Why is this so downvoted, especially with all the replies claiming that it is correct and understandable (title) English?

The occasional not-tech story on HN is equally welcome for myself, as the level of comments, and opinions are so much 'higher' than other places.
There's always some comment/s that allow me to appreciate another pov, without getting too snarky.
It does switch in the recipe popup to whatever is set on the main page. There doesn’t seem to be a way to flip it within the recipes.
Its not so clear cut why its done. For sure its for privacy which has higher requirements in some spaces but nowdays majority of clubs have no photos rules. Thats trend around europe not only Berlin. Even when there are no stickers there will be no photo signs and bouncer will remind everyone about this.

Imho it helps multiple issues.
Honestly, I don't care about "olive oil fraud" from/within the EU. As long as the final country that bottles it is responsible for food safety, then I am OK with it. Seriously, if you told me that tomatoes were mislabelled from Portugal instead of Spain, I would not care. What are the tangible drawbacks for consumers of mislabelled olive oil from EU?
