It’s kind of why I settled on “annoying” as my descriptor. I know just enough about it to do what I need and nothing more. So maybe that’s the reason, and it’s a good reason, or maybe there’s also other good reasons. Honestly don’t know. I’

I gotta say, as someone who uses Java for the majority of my professional day-to-day work, Java’s keystore and truststore workflow is very annoying. Compare to Go, Rust, etc. where you just point your HTTP server (or what have you) at some

Naive thought incoming: If these old galaxies are so dense, could that help explain why their black hole is disproportionately large? With so many stars so close together, maybe they’re gravitationally interacting with each other far more,

One thing I expected to see mentioned but didn’t (or may have missed?) is the B-52. Its engine replacement project is delayed to 2033, making it a 15-year program. Much longer than it took to develop the original airplane in its entirety

It’s pretty irresponsible of the Independent to continue pushing the conspiracy theory that John Barnett died by suicide.

This is the first I’ve heard of anybody actually using Oracle’s cloud offering, so congrats to Larry Ellison.

I'm not sure what the value of a per-capita measure is, or why it's worth making a distinction at "utility" (I'm assuming this means consumer) level. Wouldn't the most relevant measure, at least as far as emiss

The Guardian, +972 Magazine, and Local Call apparently jointly collaborated on this story, and all released their articles today (modulo local timezones). Multiple people have posted these articles today, most instances of which were flagge

Leaving aside your despicable call for genocide, the threats and harassment by Israel, as described in this article, started in 2015.

The counterpart +972 Magazine article, which goes into more details on the communications interception side of this, was posted earlier as well. The articles are complementary, IMO https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=405024

Genuine response: the “wider positions on the nature of the I/P conflict” are essential to informing the situation, and cannot be divorced from the discussion. Israel has no ethical response because there is no ethical means by which o

Dunno I can’t speak for the program, but it makes sense to me, the way the people the article interviewed talked. $10 or $11 for a week of being clean isn’t going to do much for anyone who doesn’t want to get sober but can be a big deal for

It’s kind of like you’re asking why people in AA like getting their 5 year chip. Having an external “thing”, even if it’s of token monetary value, can be a huge motivation to keeping clean. It helps give focus and grounding and makes you fe

Everyone has outsourced all their cheap and low-quality manufacturing to China, therefore China is only capable of manufacturing cheap, low quality items. Is this your argument?

If you take microservices to mean more isolated and lightweight runtimes and moving away from “single bigass server”, then disagree. I remember multihour deployments where each team would have to stage and coordinate their rollouts with eac

In the US, average transaction price for new cars is a bit north of $47k, and the average loan duration something like 67 months. It’s no wonder the US is throwing up anti-competitive protectionist policies. https://www.coxautoin

What’s it called when a government maintains a near-zero interest rate for years allowing that same VC money to prop up otherwise unprofitable tech companies? That’s a subsidy right?

A little google searching says BYD, for example, makes somewhere around $1250 in profit per vehicle. What do you mean by “artificially cheap”?

I don't understand how someone would take any chance to live in a world where a terrorist nation run by religious fanatics have the nuclear bomb. This is an extremely apt description of Israel and the US though? Nonproliferation is p

Iran's attack came more than six months after Hamas terrorists invaded Israel on Oct. 7, after which the Israeli military began its bombardment of the Gaza Strip. Yes Oct 7 is definitely the most recent, relevant event before Iran’s

Crowing about interception rates misses the point. This was Iran’s targeted retaliation to the 1 April embassy bombing. And now there’s reports that Biden is planning a “diplomatic” ( not military) response, and will not help Israel attack

I remember hearing almost exactly the same weak excuses when Israel bombed the Church of Saint Porphyrius. “Well actually it was the building right next to it (that is exclusively used by it)”. It’s not fooling anyone.
