Have you read the mar a lago accord essay?

In it, the author says:

- 10% global baseline tariffs

- Countries can be penalised with higher rates as negotiating tactic

- Countries that retaliate will be outside the defence umbrella

So the points aren't contradictory, just the comms is typically ham-fisted.
I haven‘t yet read the book but his Youtube channel is always my first go-to place for ideas on how to communicate these concepts easily. My work involves using ML in econometric analyses and most economists do not intuitively understand ML.
If there are 10,000 murderers out there and you lock up most of them along with 20,000 innocent people, you get the same result. (Bonus points if you happen to snag some annoying journalists, activists, and civil rights leaders in your dragnet, since they can push back on your power play and cast doubt on your stats.)

But you can just read the article if you don't believe me: "While polling consistently shows that Bukele is quite popular in El Salvador, surveys also show a steady increase in fear of public criticism of the government — to degrees that sometimes match the president’s approval rating. 'There’s a sector of the population that feels better, because it’s true that we perceive more security, we’re no longer afraid of the gangs. Now we’re afraid of the regime,' says Ramirez. 'We see soldiers everywhere, police everywhere, patrol cars, and they’re arresting people.'"

I agree. Sorted by percentage: 2025-04-04 is #7 (−5.50%) and 2025-04-03 is #12 (−3.98%)
It's so strange how all the federal agencies all spout obvious propaganda now with this new regime and its loyalty tests.
Just know that the entire rest of the world will generally not be queueing up to kiss the ring. Absolutely no human being, let alone nations full of them, enjoys being humiliated and ground into the dust as a mere opening ploy in negotiations.
Humanity will route around the USA. What sane actor will make deals with a psychopath that rips up contracts it made yesterday?
Second this! I just got hired for a short-term project to extend a payment solution I once wrote when I was employed by that company.

I was amazed to find that a) nobody maintained the project after I left, there were only two minor fixes because their house was on fire, and b) I really took the time to write almost complete documentation on all the important topics, which helped me get back on track faster.

You are absolutely right, and I have experienced this most of the time. The problem is that it is an uphill battle to explain to most stakeholders why you are "wasting" so much time on non-customer facing documentation.

It is hard enough to convince even technical stakeholders (e.g. product owners) to write automated tests.

While at the time I mostly think it's bad, later on it forces them to pay me twice as much, so I guess it's not as bad as I always think in those moments :D
If you put the end date of Russia's democracy 2 years after its start date, I'm not sure it's right to say it ever had one.
This piece hit me hard. I always stop myself from writing because I think no one will care or that my ideas aren’t good enough. But when I don’t write, I feel upset and frustrated.

I’ve learned that writing is the only thing that helps me feel better. It doesn’t matter if it’s messy or not perfect. I just need to write. It’s okay to make mistakes. Writing helps me be myself and feel free.

Thank you. you reminded me that I don’t have to be perfect. I just have to write. Even if it’s messy, it’s okay.

So here’s to messy words and broken rules. And to hell with perfection.
I appreciate the ones that acknowledge that its probably them that deleted the page and broke the link, instead of saying "looks like you're lost"
On the other hand, an audit that makes your customer look good to their customers is great for repeat business. The trick is checking for things that people actually care about, rather than box-checking activities.
Similar topic explored in videos from a friend of mine I call the "Adventure Game sommelier," because he's played so many of them and can recommend you one for precisely your needs. The first

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOPiSYUSrQ0

and the second, which is one of my favorite videos of all time (if you only watch one, I'd pick this one)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMVl5U3SlS0

I think he mentions Old Man Murray's piece in the second!
Yes. The chiselled face look and a cleft jaw, strong.
the reality is people need to feed themselves, and sometimes a job that feels shitty is better than no job. I’m sure you know that, i just point it out to say “it’s ok”. They signed up for that job because they need it. It’s not slave labor.

If you feel guilty about the class difference, then do what i do, and tip very generously. I like to leave $100 tip on the bed for housekeeping (at fancy hotels) upon checkout. Tip your taxi / uber well. you get the idea.

It's a super interesting video on the history of fonts and how digitizing it works.
As an outside observer, I believe that it's dangerous to disregard the threat of a dismantling of the democratic system. The current administration seem to have little regards for any traditions or rules of law, and is actively targeting governmental institutions that limit how they can wield their power.

Democracy is not some magic spell that will bring the administration back to normality. Democracy only works as long as all players continue to act as if democratic decisions are binding. The executive branch have already shown they are more than willing to go against the judicial branch. They could do the same with the legislative branch. Questioning the legitimacy of elections, or actively rigging elections, is a possible next step in the same playbook.

We should focus on how the actions of the current administration work as means to consolidate their power. A powerful minority can rule over a majority, as long as their keys to power are upheld.
News from the time [0], certainly suggests that regulation was the cause, rather than synthetics being "better".

> The trouble involved the cooling unit for the automatic transmission oil, which is placed in the car's radiator. The fittings between the cooling unit and the radiator gave no trouble when whale oil was the fluid, but the substitute allowed the fittings to corrode. That permitted the oil to get into the radiator's cooling system and the radiator's antifreeze to get into the transmission.

Are “freedom of speech” and “due process” not American fundamental values? It seems to me that the people hostile to fundamental values are the masked ICE officers kidnapping random, harmless people from the street and moving them to a different state before the judge had the chance to order them to not do that.

Or did Trump add “disregard for human decency” and “imposing widespread fear through arbitrary state violence” to the list of fundamental values with one of his executive decisions?

I grew up in a "developing country". Our family travel was limited to around 200km radius. The first time I went somewhere with only a friend that was like 1,000km, I felt the same as you describe! It was like going to another planet. People had very different accents and liked different types of music, different food etc.
In my 20's, though, I managed to migrate to a rich country and started meeting people from all over the world. I met people who spent 6 months in each country, more or less, and had been to like 20 countries in the last few years alone. These were not millionaires, they were young backpackers who did small jobs to pay for their travels. I did not even know that kind of thing was possible at the time. This changed my perspective and after a few years I started doing the same! Went everywhere I could, staying on backpacker hostels. Like many others are saying, it gets tiring after a while. Today, like top commenter, I prefer to stay at the Fours Seasons (or whatever 5-start hotel is available) and just get slightly off the beaten track... but I still want to talk to the locals and try to experience as much as possible the local culture as it is still illuminating to me.
Thank you!

Is it possible to do something like:

faultdef {
FOO, // comment
BAR, // another comment
BAZ, // yadda
// Maybe this would work, too (for docgen if available)

or something like that?

Does C3 have a way to generate documentation?
I am not exactly sure, but comparing Ferron 1.0.0-beta5 and Caddy 2.9.1 in a benchmark where HTTPS, HTTP/2 are enabled, and default Apache httpd page was served, Caddy used so much memory, that at 12,600 requests per second the system with 16 GB RAM ran out of memory, while Ferron didn't use that much memory, and benchmark succeeded up to 20,000 requests per second. Maybe it's a bug in Caddy?
Discovery is a great album but what this article misses is that Daft Punk, like a lot of electronic artists, heavily used samples.

I couldn’t find anything on the samples used in Something About Us specifically, but chances are they did sample a few funk tracks to create that.

Discovery is a great album. And the anime story that runs through the album is a delight to watch too.
That's ridiculous, by this measure font ligatures are also contributing to fraud. Or, heck, even fonts themselves, who stops a font from displaying A as B?

That is a very long way to say, "That's why I keep a picture to remember her by."
Angular is powerful and modern framework for secured and standard that provides almost every basic developers needs in one package, from form validators, Rxjs library, PWA integration and lots more. However, it also gives room fr integrating other API such as Recaptcha (the main concern of this article). Hence, i will be putting you through on how to integrate reCaptcha to angular (v8) and how to validate at backend with nodejs.
For a while I switched to mee6 pro's with some squishy foam cushions, they were around £30 and had a surprisingly flat response. Of course, that will sound bad to a typical listener until you realize the v curve you are used to has been hiding details in the midrange
>The solution's so obvious it's a farce. Just go back to what we were doing before! Global trade used to be expensive, and a lack of global trade seems to be a big piece of the puzzle as to why the economy was the way it was back then

Global trade became cheap with the advent of modern container ships and their containers. This happened well before the decline of the industrial base in the 1980s

It really came from lack of investments in the sector and poor industrial policy.
This is the most important doc to read. I'm surprised even the FT don't mention it (although commenters do).

Next step is currency devaluation. Think I'm going to sell all my US stocks despite the recent battering as they're likely to fall further.
Ask HN: Is it worth building a non-AI software company?
I have a product idea around cloud security and I have been working on it for the past few months. Quit my job about 4 months ago to work on it full time.

But lately, I am getting distracted because I keep wondering that whatever I am building can be built by anyone with the help of AI. Moreover, I see big companies launching AI models focusses around cyber security. for ex: the sec-gemini model released yesterday by google.

I can't shake the feeling that I am not building anything novel and someone with basic software engineering background can replicate the idea with the help of AI.

what are your thoughts on it?
Practices for Effective Continuous Software Architecture [video]
People certainly thought they were still living in one in 1996 and 2000, but there was no golden path out of it. The press was fully compromised, the security apparatus was in the hands of one man, and parliament was an irrelevant sideshow.

But you can't see any of this, when you're on the inside looking out - and you can't be certain of it when you're on the outside looking in.
You've gotten inaccurate information. Only the Secretary of Defense and Navy chief were appointed by Trump, the rest were appointed by Biden. (The incoming chairman will also be a Trump appointee, of course.)

imo it should be considered to achieve the 404 design with minimal complexity. Keep the document small, to prevent i.e. old touch/favicon requests from wasting lots of bandwidth.

(Not intended to criticize this post)
This is a really good Caddy replacement. The configuration format Caddy uses sometimes feels oversimplified in that complex configurations are hard to read. My instincts tell me this could scale better without getting more verbose. I'm definitely considering a migration if this project matures.
No. His policies are all aimed at fighting China.

- He wants to choke them with tariffs (and now has leverage to get the rest of the world to join in).

- They want Greenland to defend the North

- He wants to onshore manufacturing as a strategic wartime capability

Once you understand this, his policies make sense.

And the whole business of putting tariffs on everywhere is so countries can't export from them to evade the tariffs.

So because of this he seems to think effects on markets will be a one time correction that's worth the cost (not to mention is probably shorting it to pieces)
I can't recommend this video enough about how digitizing fonts work and how copyright works for fonts. It's short (5 mins) but is so wonderful.

In the early days at least part of the problem was marketing. The fact that it’s got Java in the name when it’s actually a very different language to Java confused a lot of people. They tried to use the language like Java, had a bad time and concluded the language was bad.
I have (re)installed it recently and I can't find the apps backup. The only backup that seems to run in settings is the coolify instance backup.

Moreover I don't see a way to restore a coolify hosted app from the gui (couldn't find one in the doc too).
The documentation around traefik and caddy is lackink a bit. It seems they want you to expose the coolify server directly on the internet. I prefer to host my services behind a cloudflare tunnel and it was a bit janky to setup.

It's low maintenance and stable and certainly has come a long way since I tried it about 2 years ago but there is still many improvements to make.
I meant the other new shiny stuff.
Anything you want! Check out Sparkfun and Adafruit, they have kits for everything!
Almost certainly given that pretty much all Rust webservers are, and this one is built on the same dependencies as others.

I run a few websites on fly.io VMs with 256mb using Rust servers that never actually exceed 64mb of usage.
With all due respect, and I understand that you probably mean well, but did 2 different people write this?

You're drawing the line at things that are already happening. Legal citizens are being put into literal camps (the fact it's a modern warehouse or a Salvadorian prison doesn't make it less of a camp) solely based on their appearance.

He's blatantly making moves to enrich himself (see meme coins, tariff back and forward, etc), and unless you live under a rock, the collateral damage should be clear to you now. He's constantly lying when he speaks and I'm sure an educated person as yourself can see that.

You say the other side was more dangerous long in the long term, and although I don't like either side either, it was clear which side was still progress.

You somehow got into a mental state where you're able to trust someone to do things in good will and at the same time say that he's "not a nice man".

You support what is being done, and at the same time you say you don't understand it and you admit it's possible he doesn't either.

Please, take a second to think why billionaires of all people, would be interested in doing anything that doesn't benefit them. They're billionaires because they spent their life doing just that, they don't care about you and I.

You're clinging to the hope that maybe what they're doing somehow benefits you, but you're not even sure how that would happen.

> VI don't really get why people feel the need to repeatedly accelerate up and then slam on the brakes, when leaving reasonable gaps makes everything go smoother.

My feeling observing some drivers: because they feel like if they leave a gap of more than 110% of a width of an average car (which is way below reasonable, not to mention safe), some idiot will immediately slot themselves into that gap. Which shouldn't even matter to them, but somehow they prefer to not leave a gap than to risk another take it.
I ask for help from ChatGPT before I go all in, and it creates these old-fashioned ASCII graphics to show how the flow will be. I think newcomers will not have the bad habits we have/had.
I have much more peace of mind when it's not in chroot but even better inside systemd unit and all that ReadonlyPath and capabilities applied. In the ideal case network access beyond localhost and may be db is denied for greater safety
Why do the increasing weights also look larger? Also, since they've shown it white on black a few times, aren't fonts supposed to have different weights for black on white vs white on black to compensate for different perceived weight?
I’m definitely not qualified to answer this.

I would like to say, from my perspective, that it seems to not matter how “good”, even “exceptional”, business listed on the stock market do; the outcome is hostile and negative to the customer/consumer. Costs have only gone up, dramatically so. In my case; entirely disproportionate to, if any, income increase coming in.

Market does good. Market does exceptional. The experience has generally been negative?

Market does bad? I expect a lot of us can connect the dots, and will no doubt be impacted again.

Maybe the market, in my perspective; is not a beneficial experience.
That's only if American tire companies choose to invest as if the tariffs will stick around for longer than Trump does.
All glyphs are indistinguishable from Source Sans. The 'thin'/'light' weights are kerned further apart (and in my opinion, worse) than in Source Sans.

Given these, why does this typeface deserve a new name? It is Source Sans, full stop.

At least Arial (Helvetica copy) and Segoe UI and Myriad (Frutiger copies) have a handful of distinguishing glyphs.

I have a very hot take—with typefaces, you absolutely get what you pay for. I don't like the vast majority of SIL Open Font Licence type faces, with a handful of exceptions. Most of them have glyphs that are an absolute eyesore, are weighted, sized, hinted, and kerned terribly, don't have any character whatsoever (they're all copies of copies of copies of Helvetica) and don't encode nearly enough glyphs/combining marks in Unicode.

Hint: if I can't type IAST/ISO 15919 without tofu showing up, then the font doesn't have enough Latin glyphs.

The majority of digital fonts are either not hinted at all (which makes them look like crap on low – medium resolution monitors), or appear to be hinted on and for macOS, which doesn't have sub-pixel anti-aliasing, but rather greyscale (i.e. full-pixel) AA. The result looks quite bad on Windows and Linux. It looks bad on macOS in monitors with lower pixel density, too.

I will gladly pay for a well-designed typeface (or by proxy, pay a font database subscription). The effort that designers have to put in to design something new from complete scratch is immense. Designers have to come up with unique glyphs, and then when actually setting up the curves, then have to think about how the typeface will vary along several dimensions: weight, size, display pixel density, print versus display, and so on. It's no wonder that the best fonts cost thousands.

Good fonts that have both character and are immediately legible without being unnecessarily fancy is an extremely fine line to tread and in my opinion only a handful of typefaces have managed to balance all of these through the centuries. Some of my favourites follow.

Sans-serifs include Helvetica, Frutiger, Futura, Myriad, Johnston, Optima, Transport, DIN (and its many variants; my favourite is FF DIN), Ocean Sans, and Segoe UI.

Serifs include Roman-cut (including Trajan), Garamond, Minion, a handful of Didone types, Berkeley Old Style, and Palatino.
Simple, yet almost impossible.

We're living in a fake world alright. Either the lie is powered by fear that leads to hate. Or false hope.

The truth is the simple cure but we've normalized the lie well enough that it's practically impossible to escape.
While I like the idea of using it in a graphics application, I have to say that I do not see the advantage of using it in a web application instead of a simple CSS solution.

Can someone enlighten me as to what advantage a font solution would have for displaying bar charts?
> On the other hand, the solo traveler is a recent phenomenon largely enabled by 20th century technology and political developments.

I think people like Marco Polo were not so uncommon for most of history.
Every year, I go on a long winter solo trip. Some trips were incredible, and others felt exactly like what you describe.

The main reason is that I'm leaving a rich home life and quickly miss my people and the things we do together. Every other night a new place and a new hotel room, and a meal alone in a crowd. It feels weird to leave home specifically to get so uncomfortable. The opportunity cost grows, because my roots grow deeper every year.

I'm currently on one of these trips. The last ones felt exactly like what you described, so for this one, I went back to the drawing board.

This time, I dotted the solo journey with people I know. I meet with friends in different places every 7-10 days.

I also slowed waaaay down. This is a motorcycle trip, but I only average 100 km per day. I now have time to linger in cafés. I can read, sketch, or just work for a few hours. I can take the slow, twisty roads across national parks and avoid highways completely. The ride is shorter so I arrive refreshed.

It worked. This is one of the best trip I've taken in years. Above all, it's the first motorcycle trip I consider successful since 2019.
With High Tariffs, Has Trump Ended or Revived Neoliberalism?
They mention a few times that they travel with the intent of making money. That’s the root of the problem.

I wouldn’t like traveling anymore either if I did it mainly to make money. Oops.
