It’s not a charity if it becomes or serves as part of a standard. Sort of how semis and the various suppliers/buyers of that industry wind up agreeing on standards despite being competitors in some cases. Definitely things like the Lin

Pretty sure the usual infrastructure bills from the 90s/00s were frequently in excess of a trillion. So, just do it.

“Inflation is falling mostly because energy prices are down, a trend that will not last for ever. Underlying or “core” inflation is more stubborn (see chart 1). History suggests that even a small amount of sticky underlying inflation is har

But seriously what if modern OSes were as responsive and resilient as QNX? Though after building a modern desktop recently, it does kind of feel like building a minimally viable desktop and mounting a secondary computer for graphics into it

Thing is, flat earthers are a minority. And if the systems of government succeed in representing the relatively quiet majority instead of the loud minorities then transport policy won’t stop working for at least that reason. (Still could fo

Explain cat videos. But more seriously, it is important to consider just how much importance any internet discussion should be given. I would say a strong down weight in general is most useful. Consider whether it really helps matters or se

I wonder whether an alternative could be like a Reddit or mastodon with paid-for subreddits/servers (not familiar with mastodon) being able to be started like a colocation service ala linode. Ie customers just sign up and the backend p

Seems like the Hampton inn suites are the hotel alternative for family vacations. The ones I’m thinking of are basically complete with a fridge, cooking range, and apparently on premise laundry. Being able to get a separate room for kids wi

Ah but “hail zone” isn’t quite the same order of magnitude problem as “flood zone” for the places that can’t get flood insurance. Those are starting to look uninhabitable due to encroaching sea waters. Hail’s just freak weather.

I experienced a once in 100 year hailstorm once in the west. It would probably be more cost than it’s worth. They seem to spring up with little warning, are highly localized, and last mere minutes. Edit-and I live close to this area. We cou

The problem with confrontation is people tend to start acting as if they’re playing a role that they don’t know how to leave. As though they’ve seen in movies and places where two sides get ramped up, confront one another, but there’s usual

I’m reminded of a general trend I heard of from sociology decades ago-societies birthed around plenty of water tend to be more sexually liberal than those from dryer places. The US is somewhat a mix of that while UA seems to have consistent

This “degrowth” stuff probably makes sense if we were all at the carrying capacity of an interstellar generational ship. But simply housing, clothing, and feeding the disadvantaged humans would provide rocket growth for decades to centuries

Imagine telling a FOSS developer to “f off”? This language and sentiment has no place on HN. Edit-Read the commentators other comments. They’re almost exclusively negatively targeting OpenBSD since 2021.

Importantly, it’s lack of trade barriers but all the rest of the mix, too. Ie if one part of a bilateral trade deal doesn’t honor IP rights of the other side there’s problems. Also linking countries with hugely different wage levels can be

A real problem is we’ve entered a period of society where certain actors have seen certain other actors repeatedly act awful and get away with it-because society has just accepted that behavior from those repeatedly abusive actors. So the n
