Albanians gratitude to the USA continues beyond Woodrow Wilson: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Clinton_Boulevard
Totally anecdotal but to your point, the engineering jobs in my hometown followed the manufacturing jobs in leaving town in the 1990s after NAFTA.

Engineering seems to be returning as domestic manufacturing increases thanks to foreign auto companies setting up shop across the state, replacing what the US companies left behind.
Not going to dissuade anyone from having fun hobby projects.

But legitimate question: why would I choose this over Lua, which is probably faster, super easy to embed and has a larger ecosystem.

(Please, saying "Rust" or memory-safety can be assumed already to be understood, but not considered compelling arguments)
Show HN: A tool that scans websites using Firestore for publicly accessible data
I’m launching a tool I developed back in March 2024. It lets you analyze websites or apps using Firestore for publicly accessible data.

You just need to enter a website URL or select an APK that uses Firestore, and it will analyze it and generate a report with its findings. It may not be fully accurate all the time, but it usually is. The tool was made with benevolence in mind and should not be used for malicious purposes. I'm releasing it under the MIT license.

I’m releasing it now because it's something cool, and it was just sitting in cold storage without any use.
This could be for one or multiple monitors. I’d want to ideally only have to describe my snapping rules once and then just have windows snap automatically, but also be able to tweak my instructions as I maybe discover edge cases.
The thing is that one did not need to be Twitter user to check updates from company on Twitter when needed. This is no longer that easy. That is why some companies (in my country, like train company) move to platforms that can be viewed without account. There are no many users there but anyone can follow link there when he needs it.
Because Apple invented this kind of walled gardens.
That value has also been criticised as too high.
Are you sure that LLMs, because of their probabilistic nature, would not bias against certain edge cases. Sure, LLMs can be used to great effect to write many tests for normal usage patterns, which is valuable for sure. But I'd still prefer my edge cases handled by humans where possible.
> Jenkins, TeamCity

Yeah-yeah, but it's not like they allow you to run your build definitions locally nor they address some other concerns. With GHA you may use nix-quick-install in a declarative manner, nixify your builds and then easily run them locally and under GHA. In case of jenkins/tc you would have to jump through much more hoops.
SEO is also damaging the search engines, and IMHO should be considered as a viral activity.

It is not uncommon to find a legitimate software site on the second page of a search, while all the hits on the first page are crap, often with malware added.
There's a huge JLR presence in Solihull right next to Birmingham.

It's also one of the wealthiest areas outside of London. But house prices in the really nice parts of Solihull are also high.
The problem with this interpretation is of course that it lets you be as intolerant as you want to anyone you decree intolerant. Which is why it is so popular.
I would like to see what happens if Germany imposes export controls on Pfizer 20 years from now because Biontech developed the mrna vaccine sold by Pfizer.

Overall I don't think Wasm GC is for realtime graphics.

Wouldn't the garbage collector cause a framerate drop when rendering? Usually garbage collectors are not used for graphics heavy apps.

My impression was that WasmGC was perfect for writing business logic in Go or C# or other garbage collected languages that were not running perfectly before in wasm.
That's called liberalism. Literally liberalism.

Capitalism posit that capital owners, not labor, decide what should be produced by a company, and how it should be produced. That's all.

Curiosity, what else? It was for a few weeks, I get curious about many things.

Points to me is a light positive signal that they are "a part of HN". I've seen a similar effect as you with many low point HN commenters. So I don't see low point as a negative sign, but high points definitely as a light positive sign (i.e. you can assume they read the guidelines, etc.).
I'm not from the US, but from India, and it's the same here. "Left" and "Right" may be misnomers, but there are effectively two main blocks at the national level, and supporters of each block get slotted into one of the two. Of course there are disagreements between members within each of the two blocks, but ultimately all the fine distinctions boil down to which of these two a voter would choose!
Global Database for Serverless and Edge
Its pretty much this, nothing seems to be blocking any third party slicer like Orca from working with bambu printers as they are now.. just the print button would now send the file to Bambu Connect, where you would most likely only press an extra button..

Getting info from the printer or AMS? MQTT still works. They specifically said they are not touching that.

Sadly the usual groups of people are screaming, and the open printer people are laughing. But at worst.. this is just friction.

Anyone pointing this out seems to get downvoted. But its all there in the bambu press statement and subsequent pages. Those that are upset seemed to have not read those, and instead just read or watched something inflammatory.
I was talking about useDefineForClassFields and Object.defineProperty with which I encountered performance issues.
Thanks for these references; I've been going down the research rabbit hole :)

I check my A1C every six months and I'm ok. I'm in decent shape also: regularly powerlifting, running, etc. I have a suspicion that there is a genetic component for me; there are some autoimmune issues in my family that haven't been attributed to a particular disorder and there is a chance of an underlying condition causing these autoimmune-like symptoms.

I don't think I've noticed facial numbness, but my limbs fall asleep quickly and my hands fall asleep if I am reading my phone/book while lying on my back after a couple minutes. I also drink a TON of water when drinking alcohol and am hungover for days afterwards. Since my electrolyte revelation, I started knocking back pedialyte before sleeping which helped a ton.
It's not quite that bad - the news obviously makes it seem like it's worse than it is. Also we finally got rid of the Tories, so at least things are heading in the right direction. I made a list of some positive changes Labour have made already:

* Allow onshore wind

* Means tested winter fuel allowance

* Inheritance tax for farms

* Assisted dying bill (controversial but I think generally people are in favour of this)

* Scrapping the public footpath registration deadline

The only stupid thing I think they've done is the porn site age testing thing, but that was also a Tory policy.

IMO the big problem is the right-wing media. Take something like the winter fuel allowance. Very obviously the right thing to do, and even pensioners were generally in favour (check this article: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c4gegy4r9ndo ), yet it still somehow a huge controversy with disingenuous articles even on the BBC like this one fuelling the faux outrage: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c80l9lde5yjo

How can we make any improvements if such obviously good changes meet such an irrational reaction?
Why did you misspell the VP's name 3 times like that? It kinda makes your entire message seem very unserious.

The truth as always lies somewhere in the middle.

Some splitting of a big complex thing makes sense.

Think where this went wrong isn't smaller orgs copying big tech tech, but rather that they copied it with the same granularity of splits. Not every widget needs to live in a pod with a health check, a metrics sidecar a logging sidecar and horizontal, vertical, diagonal and barrelroll scaling.

Just split it front end, back end and DB or something

I’m already writing a Rust system. I’ve tried integrating with mlua. It works, but Rhai is simpler to embed. Simpler to build.

(I also tried Piccolo which is very cool but also not simple.)

Rhai also doesn’t include a lot of complexity that Lua does. It encourages you to write extension types in Rust, which is what I want.

Rhai doesn’t have GC, just refcounts. Rhai also can disable a lot of features, say if you just want an expression language.

I use it to write trading logic. I like that it’s stripped down and simple.

This type of comment comes up here a lot, but maybe you should show us what exactly you mean?

Because at least for physics and chemistry, those are topics where, in my experience, you need deep, sustained engagement to make any personal progress on them.

Sure, you can probably learn a few fun facts through TikTok but really what's the point?

There are only 24 hours in a day. The hours you spend doomscrolling through - in the best case - fun facts about physics and chemistry are hours you spend not doing anything of value, like learning about actual physics or chemistry.

I get that you don't need to be doing something super productive all the time, what I'm saying is that I think you're fooling yourself if you believe that TikTok and co. are anything more than the shallowest form of entertainment available.
Have you seen the national debt under the conservatives? It's massively increased.
It's the same champaign socialist argumentation you are using, just that it's not affecting you, but when it does affect you, you have no argument.

The question was simple, why do you support illegal immigration in a country's borders as being OK, but not crossing in the borders of your house?

It's easy to be virtuous and generous with other people's money/resources.
> The Chinese government carefully controls foreign access to its market already (unlike the US)

Is there any reason you’re skipping the past 40+ years of turmoil in the Middle East purely from the US trying to control oil fields? Because Iran would like a word with, and there’s a hell lot of other countries behind them waiting their turn
ASML gets to see the Chinese government sink the big money into rendering them obsolete, they get to see their stock implode and to shut down RND. But the Netherlands will get to see ASML pack their bags and leave. This of course besides further unpredictable retaliation from China.

We also love it when our government takes marching orders from the US.
>It is the same issue. The reason that medical care is so expensive is that it's bottlenecked on a small number of people who are qualified and licensed to provide it. If it weren't bottlenecked on them

That bottleneck is unrelated to the baumol effect.
It would be really interesting if in order to compete and not being able to get anywhere with photolithography if they come up with some other material to make processors or something else. Silicon is the thing that has been worked on and billions have been spent on it over decades. Now with chinese government as well private companies spending billions on a break through we might get something out of left field where private companies would not have been willing to invest in.
As they say competition/war speeds up innovation.
At this point, just pause with Github Actions and compare it to how GiLab handles CI.

Much more intuitive, taking shell scripts and other script commands natively and not devolving into a mess of obfuscated typescript wrapped actions that need a shit ton of dependencies.
It's not only potent, but fantastically cost-effective. There is a reason it's popular, or so I've heard.
>not to overwhelm the novice with verbosity

that doesn't make complete sense, in unixland it's old-timers who understand the beauty of silence and brevity, while novices scan the screen/page around the new prompt for evidence that something happened
After using Parinfer for a few years the editing experience felt less like typing and more like a cross between magic and the scene from Ghost in the Shell with the split hands. It's a real shame they weren't able to add it to Calva.
The rise of Islam through military conquest perhaps, but as a religion it is difficult to say. It spread in (East) Asia mostly through peaceful means all the way to China and South East Asia, for example.

None of the unofficial Android builds allows me to access to the secure element in my SIM card to use my e-signature, which works with SIM menu prompts triggered OTA by the application I'm currently using, mostly governmental services.

Freedom o expression does not guarantee you freedom of consequence in Europe. If you make fun of a politicians they or the state can come back after you for it.
If a president can decree amendments, the Constitution means nothing. If you can break the constitution to change it, as Biden attempted, then how do you have a constitution?
Securing my partner's digital life
As a precaution, I've blocked my A1 mini from Internet access on the router, and will not apply any firmware updates anymore. I will also not update Bambu Studio anymore (or completely switch to Orcaslicer). I was already using LAN mode exclusively.

Kind of annoying, but I'm not desperately waiting for Firmware updates, everything works fine so far.
We were told in 2022 that the Russian army was incompetent, people had no gloves and were fighting with shovels. Probably not entirely without reason, because the Ukrainian counteroffensive in 2022 was relatively successful.

So the gas money definitely did not go to the army. Now, after the sanctions, on the other hand Russia keeps producing missiles and other things and trades with China.

By the way, Saudi Arabia does have a history of invading Yemen. Not an EU country, but a "military operation".
In 1998, ASML formed a European industrial R&D consortium dubbed ‘EUCLIDES’ (Extreme UV Concept Lithography Development System) with ZEISS and Oxford Instruments. Then EUCLIDES joined forces with the American EUV LLC in 1999...

"The CRADA consisted of a consortium of private companies and the Labs, manifested as an entity called the Extreme Ultraviolet Limited Liability Company (EUV LLC)."

You have this title, then a TSX page in the example.

Are JSX/TSX pages considered "old-school" now?

You both agree that expression is wrong. Why do you have to further recreate argument of the blog? These discussion based on loose associations are pointless and everyone will talk past each other.

> It seems you are confusing the details and conditions of a contract never disclosed publicly

The details have never been disclosed but it is well known that this agreement fell within the domain of national security and export controls.

Here's a press release [1] directly from ASML that references these export controls. Even though this PR actually relaxing DUV controls with respect to the U.S., it reaffirms that "EUV systems are also subject to license requirements."

I am also wondering, why they don't do online learning with their LLMs. Seems silly not to. Maybe they are performing some irreversible post-training steps, that do not allow for picking up training again afterwards. In any case, being able to feed an in production model new training data would be one of the simplest ideas to come up with.
FTA the author says some claims they insist are fallacies. Two stood out to me as being factual rather than fallacy.

>Microservices improve team autonomy.
Microservices make change of technology easier.

I think for 1 to be factual, each service does need to live in it's own repo. Giant mono reporos often don't have a dedicated group of folks to help maintain the health and tooling. But individual repos allow folks to approve and merge w/o explicit reviews from other teams because they are not sharing code, they are sharing API.

And for the second, if you want to tell me it's easier to swap your entire monolith in Play framework to anything else, than it is for me to port 5 stateless endpoints to an arbitrary framework, I'm going to laugh all the way to the finish line.
Exactly. And that lack of principals is what we should be punishing as a society, not any particular position. The rest will work itself out in time.
You don't even need JavaScript to build a website...

And then the website promotes a TypeScript framework!

I'm so confused.

The specific situation applied in Burdick.

The court ruled they could reject a pardon given before prosecution thus avoiding the need to testify about someone else. It would be a moot point if the pardon was invalid.
NextJS does SSR for SSO and speeding up first loads, but it "rehydrates" on the client side. You are still running a big honking React app in the browser.

Forget the architecture - I take significant exception to the basic arithmetic of these posts...

Here's what they say

> A simple LAMP stack server on an average 5.000 EUR server can – configured correctly – easily serve up to 6.000 requests simultaneously, probably even more if you use NGINX instead of Apache, because you do not hit the thread limit.

> Now let us assume that a request takes 200ms to complete at the 99th percentile and that each user interacting with your offering sends a request every 10s in average. This means that you can serve up to 300.000 concurrent users, i.e., users that interact with your offering at the same time with a single LAMP stack node (6.000 * (10s / 200ms)).

The server they reference has 20 cores. Let's say 40 threads. No LAMP (or probably any) stack is serving 6000 requests simultaneously on that, unless it's just a static html file (in which case they could serve considerably more).

They're implying 6000/40=150 php workers per thread. That's insanity. The cache thrashing and context switching that would happen would make it so each page would take minutes to load.
Beside it not being true for paper it's also not true for electronic screens.

I was also trying to raise recently. It's interesting to me that the UK has an absolutely incredibly generous startup investment scheme (SEIS)[0], and still hasn't managed to make this work. SEIS is ludicrously generous, and should make getting funding a breeze in the UK, and yet ... somehow it isn't.

0: If a few hurdles are jumped through, then an investor who gives you £250k can get £125k relief on their income tax (not what they'd have paid on £125k, literally the whole £125k), and then claim a further 50% back of the remainder from the government if you go bust.
Why some experts suspect younger generations could lead shorter lives
But the spread of Islam into China (in reality Central Asia - there's a reason Xinjiang has historically been called Turkestan, Uyghur is the closest living language to Chagatai, and why a Kashgari family has managed the Jama Masjid in Delhi for centuries) and South East Asia was itself because of Islam's prominence in Central and South Asia.

The early Islamic preachers in what became Indonesia and Malaysia were South Asian or Iranian in origin, and a major reason why Persianate motifs are prominent in Southeast Asian Islam. Same with much of Central Asia.

That would have not happened if the Byzantine-Sassanid War did not happen, because what became Yemen and Oman would have remained under Sassanid suzerainity and much of the Levant would have remained Byzantine. And thus, Khorasan, Gujarat, Sindh, and Punjab would have not become Muslim.

That said, I agree with you that the spread of Islam was HEAVILY dependent on trade.
