Most of the generalized aliasing domains get blacklsited. If you are going to do aliasing set it against your custom domains.

From what I can tell: Atlasian and Stackoverflow try to reject you based on your mx records on the domain (which makes that a problem)

There are a few other companies that try to restrict you to gmail or hotmail domains. (Which is even more frustrating)
Well, there is now some truth to it. For example, low quality HDMI cable will may be only good enough for low bandwidth, that would limit refresh rate, and/or color fidelity (e.g. chroma subsampling) and/or resolution.

So yea, “digital” cables are not immune to signal integrity issues, and better cables do perform better.

I understand that monster takes this to the next level of bullshit — but in principle, yes, more expensive cable cable can yield better quality. Or should I say — crappy cable can result in quality degradation

> Your answer is to literally add more of the thing creating the pollution.

No, the pollution in the subway contains high amounts of iron which comes from the trains (the metal wheels, brakes, and rails) and doesn't come from the cars on the street. Cars have their own pollution problems sure, but they're also out in the open. The neurotoxins produced by the trains are building up in tunnels and flooding enclosed stations every time a train goes by.

If you have to spend an hour either standing outside on the sidewalk near the deadly and evil cars or down on the platform near the trains, choose the sidewalk.

If we're determined to use things like congestion pricing to strong arm more and more people into going into the subway tunnels the very least we can do is make them safe to breathe in first. Improved ventilation and replacing the wheel system on the trains should help to do that. Then we can reduce the number of cars on the road without knowingly poisoning more and more of the population in the process.

Yes, the Roosevelt Hotel was used for housing for asylum seekers. US immigration law allows for asylum seekers. Those asylum seekers must be housed somewhere. Certain states (e.g., Texas) transferred asylum seekers to New York City for a (arguably justified) political stunt. New York City used the Roosevelt Hotel.

> Unsustainable and terrible waste of money. There are millions of people that would pay money out of their own pockets to come to the U.S., educated people who are self-sufficient and we wasted money on making a bad problem worse.

That isn't how US immigration law works. Everyone agrees US Immigration law is a disaster. As I mentioned, there was a bipartisan agreement to help fix it. Trump derailed that effort.

DO THIS TODAY. One of my aliases at the vendor Thermpro got compromised by them. I got list bombed pretty badly. Because it was an alias, I was able to turn it off. I got over 2k messages (Most of it "sign up for our mailinglist") within the first 12 hours. Reaching out to the vendor got nowhere. (Pretty sure they don't care that they were compromised)
What about unified memory? I know these APUs are slower than traditional GPUs but still it seems like the simpler programming model will be worth it.

The biggest problem is that most APUs don't even support full unified memory (system SVM in OpenCL). From my research only Apple M series, some Qualcomm Adreno and AMD APUs support them.

I wish all companies took such an approach. You catch more flies with honey, and all that.
Strongly, strongly disagree. This is a GNU-ism, and needlessly verbose. What's with people refusing to use the vast amount of memory in their brains and actually learning, instead lazily going for the lowest-common-denominator approach relying on "loanwords" from English?

>One of the main value propositions of RHEL (and RHL before it) is that each distro version has a fixed ABI throughout (kernel included), making it a valid compilation target for binary-only software. Neither Stream nor even Alma are that.

Maybe for current point releases of RHEL and derivatives, building against CentOS Stream may not be that great of an idea. For example, EPEL has different build targets that build against RHEL or CentOS Stream to account for the differences between point releases such as libraries (especially qt libraries!) and also to make the transition easier for their users between point releases when running a dnf update on the next RHEL point release.

As a side tangent: In my opinion, I think vendors should be compiling software against CentOS Stream to ensure compatibility and validation for the next RHEL point release, which should work for the next point release of RHEL, Rocky Linux, AlmaLinux, and even Oracle Linux. I've not seen many vendors do this, though.

With that said, the differences that AlmaLinux have should not cause incompatibilities (and if there are, I can't see them being anything more than minor issues). This means that builds on an AlmaLinux build root should allow the software to still work on the others. Any of the distributions in the family should be fine as build targets.
You said it, what a legend. Highly recommend the documentary "When We Were Kings". RIP Big George.
The vec pattern has some advantages though, in particular you can often get away with 32 bit indices (instead of 64 bit pointers), making it a little more cache-friendly. I did it for regex ASTs that are supposed to be hash-consed, so never need to die until the whole matcher dies [0].

A more contrived example is Earley items in parser that point inside a grammar rule (all rules are in flat vec) and back into previous parser state - so I have 2 u32 offsets. If I had pointers, I would be tempted to have a pointer to grammar rule, index inside of it, and pointer to previous state [1], so probably 3x the space.

In both cases, pointers would be easier but slower. Annoying that Rust doesn't really let you make the choice though...

Show HN: I built Envs.AI – Free env variable manager for dev teams
Hi HN,
I built Envs.AI, a free tool to solve the headache of managing environment variables across different environments and platforms.
Envs.AI lets you store all your environment variables in one secure place and easily integrate them with Jenkins, Python, and other platforms in your tech stack. No more scattered .env files or sharing secrets through Slack messages.

Some features:
- Central repository for all env variables
- Secure storage with proper access controls
- Simple integration with CI/CD pipelines
- Easy access via API for different languages and frameworks
- Team collaboration features
- 100% free to use

I built this because I was frustrated with how environment variables were managed across projects and teams. Would love to hear your feedback and suggestions!
Haha, that's funny, but that's basically what electric knives already are, right?
I had no idea Monster sold anything other than over priced guitar cables... About 15 yeard ago, I knew a guy who exclusively bought Monster... well he had two of them, one from the guitar to the pedal board and another from the board to the amp.

But it wasn't because of their alleged improved sound quality or whatever, it was because they had a lifetime warranty. Dude had bought two monster 1/4inch cables and gotten them replaced "for free" like 5 times.

From what I can tell they got rid of the lifetime warranty around 2018 and have mostly transitioned to licensing their name.
Show HN: Font Pair – I was wasting hours choosing fonts, so I built this
Hey HN

I built this little tool to solve a personal pain — I always get stuck picking fonts while designing or building something.

So I created Font Pair – a one-click font pairing tool. You can:
- Shuffle heading + body font combos
- Filter by serif, sans, display
- Preview them instantly
- Use keyboard shortcuts (S, H, B) for speed

Would love feedback from devs/designers here.
Built with just HTML/CSS/JS.

Thanks!

RIP. My favorite sports story. Heavyweight champ at 25/28 and 45.
I got my first software job while I was still in high school and when I started my career I mostly worked jobs that I really enjoyed for a lot less than I could potentially make otherwise. I didn't have a family yet, I didn't have a lot of expenses, I didn't care. Later down the road I joined a "real" startup and started getting paid much better (coincidentally or not around the time I had my first child) and since then I've sort of been in the rat race so to speak. Can't complain though but most of my later jobs were not as fun as my earlier ones.
I think one issue is less extant Rust code to train on. As more Rust is written and published, LLMs should in theory get better.

Oh, that explains a thing.
A decade or so ago, I was a well regarded engineer at a FAANG who got an offer from a startup. I told my manager I was probably going to take it, as it sounded fun.
He and his lead tried to talk me into staying, showed me other departments I might find more fun.
Really, they could've offered me a trivial raise and I probably would've stayed, but I was too meek to ask for money, and they didn't bring up money at all.

That always struck me as very strange; I assumed it was either a mistake, or a "if they're going somewhere that is a pay cut, clearly it isn't money, and if you offer them money they'll leave in 6mo anyway". But, if they don't have that level to pull, that's a much simpler answer.
> So yea, “digital” cables are not immune to signal integrity issues, and better cables do perform better.

Better cables perform better, but not at all in the way that Monster suggests.

Gold plating and oxygen-free copper doesn't matter.

Any certified HDMI cable will operate at least to its certification, whether or not it is gold plated with triple shielded conductors.

I wish the HDMI forum would officially deprecate all older HDMI standards, so that companies like Monster couldn't advertise that their cables provide "better color, higher resolution, better sound", etc. All the cables in the store would be 8k HDMI 2.2 cables, or they wouldn't be allowed to use the HDMI trademark.
Interesting. Can you share an example of this?

"Any portrayal of a husband" on TV?

Comedies often have some mockery built in, and comedies aimed at kids in particular like to take shots at authority, but there are a lot of examples I can think of in just the general-TV-millenial-vibe-y things I've watched over the past couple of decades. More than the "bumbling dad" type, I'd say, from things I've seen in the zeitgeist (I guess one recent super typical example is Rick and Morty, though everyone sucks there):

* Arrested Development: Michael is the most competent of the bunch. His father was also quite competent, if an asshole and eventual criminal. But, you know, that put the "sit" in sitcom...

* Luke from Gilmore Girls is pretty consistently more sane than Lorelai, turns out to be a good dad too IIRC; other fathers include a loser and a number of very successful businessmen, teachers, etc.

* King of the Hill: doing his best, often the most sane of the bunch

* Bob's Burgers: haven't watched a ton of this but from what I've seen Bob is a goofball but respectable and wholesome, kinda a Hank Hill. Not a lazy Homer

* Parks and Rec: Ben Wyatt is a pretty positive character

* Brooklyn 99: Terry is practically a superman of competence and seems to hold is own with his wife and kids. Holt is a supremely competent husband. Boyle is a goofball generally and in dating, but that does not really extend to his eventual marriage and child, where he seems to be doing quite well.

* Schitt's Creek: Johnny is the competent center of the family surrounded by comically exaggerated crazy wife + kids

Dramas seem even further away. Where do Breaking Bad or the Sopranos land?
That is an unattainable standard for the average joe though. Savvy people have their ways to keep things secure, even if it's inconvenient. It's the masses that fall prey to these avoidable traps.

Because not everyone has 20 or more years of flag memory from using Linux, and they’ve also got to maintain the scripts. If you’re not familiar with every arcane invocation of find or tar or whatever, or even if it’s just been a while, the long options are a godsend when you’re skimming a script trying to figure out what it’s doing.
I wonder how Apple's ProRes would work for remote desktop over wired networks, especially now that consumer equipment is starting to move beyond 1GbE. They have hardware encode and decode on everything newer than the original M1, and ProRes only does intra-frame compression so a fairly low-latency implementation should be possible.
The point is, you can replace "Cursor" with "hot new dev toy" and it's exactly how his channel functions.

Using nix has really spoiled me on this. Everyone gets the same versions of all the CLI utilities in the dev environment, whether on mac or linux, and those are the same versions that run in CI and any prod systems.

Back when we had the government ran labor bureau in the Netherlands the slightest unserious behaviour would get a company kicked out for a few years. Perhaps one day there will be a similarly serious job platform.

The bureau did other hilarious things like pick 2-3 candidates for you then act offended if you didn't like any of them. Something like, we do have more qualified people but that level of skill is not required for the job you offer.

If you fire the new hire (even few years later) they wanted to talk with you and learn why that is. Don't show op or the excuses are insufficient? You won't be listing job offers for a while.

Applicants got their social support cut for not acting professionaly.

They would set the time and date for the interview. Hiring people is more important than whatever other activities you think should take priority.

It wasn't cheap either. In today's money 1000 euro per job listing.

They took the job very seriously. Get people out of social support and make the economy work.

Part time jobs, temporary work or zero hour contracts were allowed but the applicant had to specificaly ask for it. You didn't have to apply and it didn't count for your minimum number of monthly interviews.

I don’t care about milk, but in general we don’t want the health care system swamped by preventable things on a large scale. This an issue in Covid that was impossible to hammer into the freedom nuts and current measles fans. I say this as a physician who worked covid wards. Here there were times when there were no more icu beds or ventilators available and people with unrelated medical issues were badly affected by that.

You can make an argument against me by extending it to saying let’s ban antifreeze or whatever by my logic but that isn’t usually something that scales the same way because it’s a relatively rare but serious event someone drinks it compared to public health measures in a population level with a small change to a high frequency but variable event rate.

I didn't know who George Foreman was a little kid, so I saw him in the commercials for the George Foreman Grill and assumed that he was the inventor.

I was very confused when I, at age 11, read a comic published in 1990 (I think) and saw an advertisement for (I think) a boxing video game with George Foreman on the cover. I thought "huh, I wonder if he's related to the guy who invented that grill on TV".

I asked my mom and she laughed, and that day I truly learned about celebrity endorsements.

Four years in to using it at work for dev environments across mac (x86 & ARM) and various linuxes and can’t imagine going back.
