Sorry you feel that way.

Or maybe the government could take a serious look at how insane their spending is and do something about it. And Bernie is an idiot who thinks more money in government hands will solve problems. Social security and medicare are in trouble. Billions of COVID money went unaccounted for. The Department of Defense routinely loses track of billions in spending and the State Department is a hot mess of spending without accountability.

I cannot even see the thing because of error - Cannot load page. Too many redirects (more than 20). What’s up?

Sad. Here comes HashiWatson. IBM will totally trash Hashi’s awesome products is a sea of “enterprise” trash.

Would be good to have an index!

Such a click-bait headline. Rapidly means about 100 years. Article talks about 2120. Ok, in geological time this scale is a rounding error. But still.

This is so ridiculous it hurts my soul. Hey Microsoft, maybe work on software quality and security and skip the ads.

How long until an adversary figures out a way to inject something nasty through the ad network? Only a matter of time. I can’t wait for the Blackhat talk.

Me too. Just why?

I just went through a hellish Microsoft experience _trying_ to get Office 365 working on a Windows laptop. Got stuck in a fail loop: Create account -> Email already used. Login. -> Cannot login, account (email) does not exist. -> Create account. DO FOREVER.

The crazy thing is on Microsoft's own support (term used very generously) forums there are multiple threads with many pages on this very same issue. Imagine, I want to pay you for your product, but your rats nest of services is such a hot mess that it's nearly impossible. Unbelievable!

Converted the laptop to Linux dev box. Doing project using Pages and Keynote on my Mac.

Detailed article but not a single sample of an XmR chart.

+1 for Golang + fiber + htmx. Big fan of this stack, plus maybe some AlpineJs as needed.

Recently looked at templ-great features, but somewhat awful looking generated code.

So much yes! Perhaps this shift in capital supply will fund fewer copy cat "X for Y" type businesses (Uber for Y), (Tinder for Y), etc. and focus on truly innovative ventures. I think true innovation in the energy and biotech spaces, to name a few, would still find capital. Like the saying goes, "nothing focuses the mind like half the budget."

Having used HTMX for several projects, no it’s not over-hyped, it’s an awesome way to build on the web.

This is awful on mobile :(

I’m wondering what this is doing on HN? Why?

I have a 2018 Subaru Crosstrek. Just this weekend I stopped for lunch and had XM on until it timed out ~ 10 minutes after key off. I’ve done this since I got the car. But when I went to start the car the battery was low voltage (which really freaks the computer out) and would not start. This story fits the fact pattern!

I think the time to “address” data security concerns are before you get pwned and millions of records get taken. It blows my mind how many companies get taken for millions, tens of millions, or hundreds of millions of records and only find out after the fact.

Doing something like this—add fault tolerance mechanism(s)—and your potential attack surface is exponentially reduced compared to “typical” microservice architectures.

There are also potential performance gains because there’s a lot less network hopping around.

I’ve done some big data processing using a single big box strategy in the past and it worked very well—as the saying goes, “distribute when you must.”

One more example of Microsoft acting against the best interests of users which they do often (like making browser choice a pain, hiding settings they really don’t want users to find, etc.) How about work more fixing crappy UX or improving security? Asking for a friend.

Utterly horrible idea that 100% will be abused. Look at the hundreds of thousands of illegal searches FBI did just last year or the outright lies on some high profile FISA warrants or the intimidation the FBI had been engaged in of late. One minute it’s fighting a botnet next minute it’s illegal collection or worse. This must not happen in any form.

US MIL also needs to get more lethal. Smaller, cheaper (relative), and smarter are good measures moving in a good direction, but lethality a critical factor for winning wars.

Can anyone recommend a classic text or two on atomic/nuclear physics that would be good places to start for someone with a background of graduate math, some physics (mechanics, thermo) and computer science (advanced degree)? Much thanks.

Such a great post. Super clear, great screens. And where the hell have I been that SQLime SQL playground is new to me. Wow what a great tool. See sqlime.org.

Bounds checks on arrays/strings. This would prevent the largest class of errors (buffer overflows) seen in C code.

Moving fast and not implementing labels (yet?) is akin to making a new gun model and selling them without a safety. They can message all they want about “trust and safety” but empirical evidence says otherwise. FB cares about one thing: money. Period.

Sorry to post twice on this thread, but this concept gets so little relative attention, and to me, this is a huge and viable idea. And low cost. Sure you need to cover a lot of land but if this technique was applied to farm lands it cloud have a disproportionate carbon sink effect relative to things like direct air capture or carbon storage. Worth additional attention IMO.

And India is coming up fast as demographics propel them to become the world’s most populous country, replacing China.

HN headline is very click-baity.

Context: Collapse around the middle of the century or as soon as 2025. (That’s a big error bar.)

(CNN) A vital system of ocean currents could collapse within a few decades if the world continues to pump out planet-heating pollution, scientists are warning – an event that would be catastrophic for global weather and “affect every person on the planet.”

A new study published Tuesday in the journal Nature, found that the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Current – of which the Gulf Stream is a part – could collapse around the middle of the century, or even as early as 2025.
