Djay’s killer feature is algorithmic stem extraction. The streaming audio services that have integration (Tidal, now Apple Music) don’t allow this processing. It’s an arbitrary technical limitation that I suspect is rooted in a licensing agreement from the rights holders.

tl;dr this is great for playing with sequencing, but a lot of modern djays will want to be able to do stem separation even when exploring, and live use was always a tough sell with a no-internet kill switch.

I'm already feeling like entrepreneurship is out the window.

It's a combination of AI being owned from these mega corporations and corruption at the highest level that I'm losing sight of what is the purpose building my startup business in an authoritarian landscape.

Trump illegally promoting Elon's corporation with a yard sale, kissing his feet for donating millions to his campaign thanks to citizens united, allowing him to ransack the federal government as an unelected official, to making vandalism a domestic terrorist act for people fed up when him,and now putting Elon in charge of investigating Signalgate.

People need to stand up now before they cannot.
As someone who's been reading Daring Fireball since 2004 and considers themselves an Apple fan, I think the algorithm is working exactly as intended if it's designed to limit intellectually dishonest content.

Gruber has built a career on a predictable pattern: vociferously defend Apple's every decision (even contradicting his own previous positions when Apple changes course), construct elaborate post-rationalizations for their missteps, while simultaneously maintaining meticulous, years-long grudges against anyone who makes incorrect predictions about Apple.

There's a stark difference between having perspective as an enthusiast and being a reflexive apologist. The "Something Rotten in Cupertino" piece is the exception that proves the rule - a rare deviation that doesn't erase the pattern of selective criticism that's defined his work for years.

What's particularly frustrating is the pretense of even-handedness. I'd respect the work more if it were openly presented as Apple advocacy rather than positioned as independent analysis. The community's collective flagging behavior isn't "censorship" - it's quality control from readers who've recognized this pattern.

HN's algorithm isn't suppressing contrarian viewpoints - it's responding to content that consistently fails to meet the intellectual honesty this community values.
Because maybe they’re not doing something column oriented? Because it has a notoriously finicky API? A dozen other reasons?
The important thing to me for such articles is that they demonstrate how ignorant we are about the functioning of the brain.

Most European public universities have low tuition because taxpayers are subsidizing them. This can only work if the number of students is kept relatively low. You can't have both cheap tuition and widespread access to higher education. The math doesn't work.

It will also be interesting to see what happens now that Europe has to get real about defense spending instead of freeloading on US security guarantees. Since defense spending is going up there's going to be a lot of political pressure to cut higher education.

> I remember using Blender when everyone was saying how terrible of a UX it was.

I remember those days too, and I also remember that once I actually adapted to how Blender worked, it turned out it was superior in many ways to other 3D software of that time period. The workflow was just too different for a lotta folks to adapt to. Fast forward a couple major version numbers, and Blender's mostly kept everything that was great about how it worked, and managed to cater in many ways to those who could not adapt to how different it was. It's been so much ongoing massive improvement without all the usual destruction of everything that it was already doing right that we so often see.
I could do better tbh, more used to Reddit also fasting so its been interesting how it detracts my concentration when it comes to time to break the fast and afterwards.

> Tesla has no product to justify a stock P/E ratio that is 10X that of a typical auto manufacturer.

Tesla has at times been valued at a number higher than Toyota, Volkwagen Group, Hyundai/Kia, General Motors, Ford, Nissan, Honda, Fiat Chrysler, Renault, Suzuki, Daimler, BMW, Mazda and Mitsubishi. COMBINED. Actually, Tesla was valued at significantly more. Let's close the gap... nope, worth more than all of these AND several Chinese manufacturers: SAID, Geely, Changan, Dongfeng.

The insanity is that this didn't sound ridiculous, but reasonable to a non-negligible portion of the population.
the flip side to that “high” that comes with working super quickly for me has been a crash associated with a sinking feeling that I’ve outsourced too much.
Same could be said about Fender and Gibson.
"When a professional prognosticator's prognostications continue to be falsified by actual events, year after endless year, at some point don't people stop listening to them?"

Yet people still listen to Musk about when Tesla will have autonomous driving.
In fairness there are also several ambiguities with JSON. How do you handle multiple copies of the same key? Does the order of keys have semantic meaning?

jq supports several pseudo-JSON formats that are quite useful like record separator separated JSON, newline separated JSON. These are obviously out of spec, but useful enough that I've used them and sometimes piped them into a .json file for storage.

Also, encoding things like IEEE NaN/Infinity, and raw byte arrays has to be in proprietary ways.
a16z has been wrong about everything. Most VCs have been. The thing to understand is that how the first VCs invested in companies like Apple and Google, people still have an outdated model of this game.

Right now the VC game is closer to a giant ponzi scheme. The whole goal is to sell it to the next fool down the road and if not any then retail investors.
Blender was open source software that was freed after the original developer couldn’t make money and, IIRC, was purchased by the community.

It did not start from scratch as OSS.
Ah, that makes more sense than anything I could find on the page (version only appeared as a substring of conversion.) Having only used blender for "minor tweaks to a collision model of a robot workspace" which got managed in git, model-aware version control sounded interesting.

Hoo boy; the idea that “intellectual honesty” bubbles to the top is an … interesting take to say the least. I don’t think it’s well-supported.

Thank you for calling me on this.

He seems to have been "Adamah", or "dirt" - which is not far removed from "Adam", I'll grant.

But "Eve" is the one that really changed. She was named by Adam "Ishah", feminine version of "ish"/man. Or maybe "Chivah", a variation on the Hebrew word for life. I'm not clear. Then the Greeks made her "Zoe".... Fast forward a few hundred years, and a couple languages, and it becomes "Eve".

An early computer translating program took "out of sight, out of mind" to Russian and back, and returned "invisible insanity". A fairly reasonable translation, in some respects.

If the dongle acts as a wifi AP with a DHCP server, it could give the iPhone an ip address but no gateway upon connection. This will cause the iPhone to talk directly to the dongle via the WiFi interface, but talk to the rest of the internet via the cellular connection.

You can determine this by checking the WiFi network's properties after the connection is established. If there's no value in the "Router" field, that's how it works.

Once you load the firmware update page, JavaScript on the page instructs the browser to fetch the firmware payload from a server on the public Internet, then relays that data to the dongle's web server to execute the firmware update process.

As the other reply mentioned, this can be tricky, as CORS likes to prevent this kind of data transfer for security reasons, the right configuration on the web server will make it work.

It's a fairly clever setup.

If you want a low-tech way of confirming this design, try running the firmware update with a device that doesn't have two network connections, like a laptop, instead of a cell phone. If it doesn't work from such a device, the scenario I described above is probably how it works.
There are some decent arguments for BEL over NUL, however given you posed that as a rhetorical question I feel I can say little other than

I like how the first half of your reply assumes the difference between errors disappears, and the second half of your reply assumes the difference doesn't disappear. Just because I share handling doesn't mean I would throw out all the information, and if I have a filesystem error while setting up a file I'm going to do the same cancellation paths no matter what particular filesystem error it is.

> Then you've forever hitched your horse to their code. A better or more performant replacement comes along in the future and you want to use it instead? Too bad. You can't without breaking your own API – and for what reason?

No, I did not say that. What I said is that the place to prevent that is not every function call. If my code goes 4 functions deep, I need at least one of them to handle errors I didn't cause, or convert them into my own errors for the sake of a stable API. But many of the other functions can pass errors through.
Plus the 64-bit integer problem, really 52-bit integers, due to JS not having integers.

When you look at how type acceptance works, all Boeing planes are going to be a "737". When you actually look at the 737 MAX and compare it to earlier aircraft, it's pretty obvious that they've created a whole new aircraft. Hence MCAS trying to pretend like that didn't happen & dead people.
No.

You're confusing chimps with gorillas.
While there are a variety of different interest groups that have influenced current federal government education policy, most of them don't seem to be trying destroy it just for the sake of destruction. Instead the policy seems to be based more on the perception that the education system has been co-opted and corrupted to indoctrinate students with values and political philosophies that conservative or right-wing politicians find abhorrent. They see this as so damaging to society that it would be better to have no educational system at all rather than what we have now. I don't agree with this perception or their actions, but there is at least a kernel of truth to their viewpoint. In a politically diverse nation if we want to maintain broad based support for higher education then we need to find a way to keep universities at least somewhat politically neutral.
Eventually with AI translation, and the proliferation of machine generated text everywhere, the word "yes" will be the way people say "forks" in Spanish! You would say at a restaurant "Necesitamos dos yes, por favor."
Probably not at this point in time. Back when Blender was released, I think there was less reliance on third party libraries (in general), but especially those that would complicate releasing the software as open source later. I don't think this was as much a conscious decision as it was about making sure you had full rights to the code you used back when Blender was started and open-sourced.

Now so many projects take on dependencies that require NDA and proprietary licenses, it's unlikely that this type of creative tool would see the light of day after being closed-source. I can't imagine any industry leading creative tools not getting to market more quickly by purchasing software that gives them an edge for the operating system they are running in. I hope that I'm completely wrong, and possibly there is someone out there that is using software that is easy to rewrite, or replace, if the license doesn't allow open-sourcing.

I was in classes in the early 2000's with people taking multimedia courses, and Blender was just starting to become more well known. The school I went to taught 3DS Max and Maya, which had their own learning curve. I think 3D rendering is just difficult from a UI/UX place, and Blender got in at the right place at the right time. I was in software development, but my friends that had their heart into 3D rendering said Blender was a bit different, but not so challenging as moving between Photoshop and GIMP. That's not anything against GIMP, just a point of comparison, I think GIMP is fine the way it is and haven't been able to follow the UI of Photoshop since CS2 era.
Aside from all the usual and well-deserved high praise I'm seeing, I feel like there's something more worth pointing out:

Blender has made 3D work much more "mainstream". I see many videos/pictures/tutorials with views in the millions(!), and much more overall interest in using the software. Not just the pretty visuals and talented people, but the whole program itself seems to be gaining traction with the more "normie" crowd.

That also made me realize something else: Blender is now the default for anything that's not extremely high-end/resource-intensive. If you ever hear about anyone doing any kind of 3D work, they're probably using Blender.

And this has creeped into the mainstream in a way only very established brands like Coca-Cola have. Nowadays, "Blender" might as well mean 3D photoshop/illustrator for most people.
This has nothing to do with arity?

Lactose and gluten intolerance often come together, so it wouldn't surprise me that people get confused on that is causing their problem. It's easier with lactose because there are plenty of products that have lactase added during production to produce lactose free milk / cheese etc.

My wife is gluten and lactose intolerant. The irony is that she was pretty unsympathetic to people with food intolerances before developing her own.
I've seen many examples of people creating containers for Linux; I wish it were comparably easier to create containers for Windows. The fundamental software exists on Windows (AppContainers are how UWP apps work) but the documentation around AppContainers is very sparse/opaque because Microsoft doesn't want you to use AppContainers to make a general purpose sandbox environment like Snap or Flatpak; they want you to write UWP apps. It would be immensely helpful if you could run any arbitrary win32 or higher application in a sandboxed AppContainer where the NT System calls only had access to, say, the application's local folder and its %APPDATA% folder.

Alas, I think that Microsoft has simply given up on Native application support on Windows. Currently the only good way to write native apps for windows is still Win32/MFC and Winforms.

In fact, I think that secretly even Microsoft knows that everyone hates their UI frameworks/runtimes (and the fact that Microsoft deprecates them 2 years into their lifespan) because Microsoft STILL provides modern .Net 8/9 bindings for Winforms in 2025. If only they would just replace the GDI renderer with Direct2D, it would be literally perfect

Yes. Homeowners of different political stripes are united in their unabashed desire to prevent the building of housing in order to maximize their own home's value. Rather than an outright attack on their fellow citizens, which it is, this is always phrased as protecting the value of their investment as if the outsized growth if the real estate sector was something their family earned rather than the result of piss poor policy.
> why you think they need new laws to detain you and deport a non-citizen

I did not suggest that they did. That's not what they did, though, is it? She is from Canada; there are flights to Canada all the time. There is no indication that she was indigent and unable to pay for her own return flight after being refused admission to the US.

I think most reasonable people would agree that refusing entry to a person not legally allowed to enter is one of the core duties of immigration personnel. If they had put her on the next flight back to Canada, there would have been no story here.

What we did instead was we incarcerated her for weeks across multiple prison facilities. There is no suggestion that anything caused this beyond her paperwork being "no good," as you say.

I'm not getting into the politics of it. I'm just saying that I would not get on a plane to go to a country where a visa snafu could land me in prison for weeks, and I can understand why people would not want to take that risk. That's the part that's not normal among civilized countries.

People could reasonably disagree with this point, especially where the current administration is concerned.
I was also confused. The HN title is weird. As I hovered over the description deciding whether to waste my precious seconds RTFA I had dreams of some sort of version control for 3d assets, but no.
> But many of the other functions can pass errors through.

If it only calls one function and isn't part of the public API it is likely that you can get away with it. There is a time and place for that, but if that time and place is most of the time like your earlier comment indicated and something that can be counted as many in this comment... I'd like to see this codebase because I am highly skeptical that it is something anyone would ever want to work on[1].

If it calls two or more functions, then you're back to the "which function was it?" problem.

[1] And, as it happens, Google actually commissioned a study on how frequently that kind of code is actually written based on open source projects and other code they had access to when evaluating an error handling proposal. They found it to be an unusual case. It being "most" or "many" is definitely limited to within your works, not something applicable in general. There just might be a reason why your ways haven't caught on, but thrill me!
People in the US don’t want to use public transportation due to the demographics of those who do use it.
I suppose the Google Doc team initially thought this would surely be a bug in their own code, not in Chrome or in V8, so it wouldn't help to bisect their own code. Nobody really begins to debug by blaming the compiler.
