Crazy that Deno is still not workable on FreeBSD because of the Rust V8 bindings not being ported.

Try to actually use a recent version. Never had a problem with late plasma 5 and recent Plasma 6 on Arch.

Very clearly written article - didn't feel like they were trying to sell you their viewpoint - just laid down the facts concisely.

Hopefully 8Gb isn't reserved for Apple Intelligence?

Just tried asking Llama 3.2:3b to write a YAML file with Kubernetes Deployment definition. It spit the yaml out but along with a ton of explanations. But when I followed up with below it did what I want it to do.

>>> Remove the explanation parts and only leave yaml in place from above response. apiVersion: apps/v1 kind: Deployment metadata: name: my-deployment spec: replicas: 3 ...

Alternatively this worked as well >>> Write a YAML file with kubernetes deployment object in it. Response should only contain the yaml file, no explanations. ... ions. ```yml apiVersion: apps/v1 kind: Deployment metadata: name: example-deployment spec: replicas: 3 selector: matchLabels: app: example-app template: metadata: labels: app: example-app spec: containers: - name: example-container image: nginx:latest ports: - containerPort: 80 ```

If anyone has an idea how in the modern day one could run a search engine, be sustainable and provide quality results without being influenced by advertisers, SEO hacks and also maintain security around it all - infected pages etc. - they are not on HN and are probably too busy implementing their idea. Kidding aside as a thought exercise what can people think of to kind of sort of make modern search engine work?

I am asking because I get the feeling that there's not much you can do and Google's way is the only thing anyone can do and still be in business. Now how much they rely on ad revenue and how much more they have to compromise is another story. Probably Google should be thinking of including better search to paying Google One customers?

Biggest problem is inertia - that would have to be solved - one way is that Google search gets useless and people have an option to move to something better. I doubt this will happen. Other way is someone builds not just a marginally better product but a 10x better product and people move there - I don't see that happening anytime soon either.

Posting link points to home page. So just like an ad or does the careers page need updating?

I guess that's one way of keeping Solaris alive :)

Seems premature. You don't write successful browser engines using relatively new language that is optimized for one platform.

But it was predictable - Andreas comes from Apple background so.. The other thing is no one can build a browser alone - the ability to attract the right people is what differentiates a mainstream usable browser and a toy one. IOW focusing on adding another language that is not as popular amongst the right developer demographic seems like the wrong thing to focus on at this stage.

Yes, I am not arguing against having the ability to deal with it quickly - I am saying canary/ staging helps you do exactly that. Because as we see in the case of Intel CPUs and Crowdstrike some problems or scale of some problems is best prevented.

Ok. But the good old push code to staging / canary it before mainstream updates was a simpler way of solving the same problem.

Crowdstrike knows the computers they're running on, it is trivial to implement a system where only few designated computers download and install the update and report metrics before the update controller decides to push it to next set.

You said data doesn't show they drag their feet and then proceeded to present anecdote of your personal preferences and use cases while adding that thoughtful UI and battery life are the features and not web standards or the implementation quality of it nor the lack of 3rd party browsers on iOS - https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31902707

Sure they have recently implemented some features like IndexedDB but the data does indeed show that they dragged their feet!

Edit: not the site owner.

Just scroll down - the jobs link in an anchor to it, for some reason it doesn't scroll there.

I recently got a UDM and don't recall having to sign in and I was able to set it up and everything functions including automatic updates. Where did you have to sign in and for what product?

So you are saying I can rely on API key being always required by AI overlords and there would be no point in the future where somehow things leak out without needing the key?

You see if you don't meddle with my terminal data in the first place I would feel much better that I am in control of my data, and not reliant on. 3rd parties to accidentally drop guard and leak my data out.

That'd be you sir because the change log says and I quote -

> This release adds some safety valves to eliminate the risk of private information leaving the terminal via the AI endpoints.

If it's still not clear - I don't want my terminal to even have the possibility of leaking my data.

Got rid of it, switched to Kitty. I will miss the password manager from iTerm but that's ok - I can chill knowing AI won't upload my passwords someplace.

I guess they can shift to Microcenter model at least at some percentage. Knowledgeable associates that actually help, selection of a wider variety of stuff that competes with online warehouse retailers.

They had an advantage after all the other electronics brick and mortar retailers cratered but they blew it away by dumbing everything down and making the store experience boring.

Skin absorbs stuff without having to inject it below.

That wasn't what the case was about. It was about the propensity of the car to catch on fire and faulty door latch design that prevented the passenger who survived the impact from getting out.

Well sure, but the scalp underneath the hair that's gotta have some skin properties - sure it's thicker than the rest of the skin and has some protective properties against some forms of environmental damage but the dye does go in there and years of use should cause _some_ thing - not sure there's any research around what exactly.

Hair dyes would have similar absorption mechanism right?

Yeah, I used the word similar but sure! Just to be even more clearer I wasn't at all saying her job wasn't hard - I was merely saying IT jobs paying that can be equally hard.

I don't about others but based on past experience if one really attempts to do their $240k software / IT job well they ought to encounter similar if not in some ways worse challenges - some just realities of the tech industry/stack/complexity and some injected by bureaucracy, incompetence, mismanagement and not to mention the ever hanging sword of change in technology and possibility of layoff for no fault of yours. It adds up.

When you are signing up for a job it's not just the money and the physical things you do - it's also the intangibles, the time spent in unproductive meetings, time spent afterwards feeling unproductive and worried, the resulting stress you have to manage etc, it all adds up and takes away something more than the money. I would argue that well managed jobs with some semblance of stability, human connection and predictability/routine are quite pleasant and easier to do compared to Software/IT.

That's exactly the point - it is being used by a post below as such.

Per Wikipedia Eugene Debs was convicted of federal charges for defying a court injunction against the strike and served six months in prison. The world we live in means that someone is going to draw an equivalence from similar words for political gain. For e.g. prison is prison doesn't matter if it's for defying anti strike injunction or financial fraud. Likewise anti-war is anti-war be it a WW2 or Vietnam.

OTOH I have been hearing about ARM's rise since a long time now. It's not just performance per watt and even that's just Apple beating everyone. See Windows on ARM.

x64 is here to stay with its incredible ecosystem and OSS friendliness - Coreboot, Intel and AMD GPU drivers, great choice of operating systems and apps with a fairly long usable lifespan even with Windows updates.

Ah yes forgot about Publix - and yeah more than once I have been asked by Publix employees if I needed help pushing the cart - they seemed to be happy to do it too!

Not Costco's - have been to many over the years and they have some of the best maintained, good quality carts you don't mind dragging across their gigantic parking lot.

Opposite - the TPM is hardware TPM and that's why it was easier to sniff the communication between it and the CPU over LPC. fTPM resides inside the CPU so sniffing is not as easy.
