This is really applicable to any products that are valued based on their marketing efforts instead of intrinsic value or utility. Costume jewellery, designer clothes, some kinds of art, all derive their value from the story the creators tel

I don’t think the sculptor was planning to sculpt an outlandish alien nose. The problem is that if your statue doesn’t look right heads will roll. The story isn’t about the selection of outlier data points as being representative - its more

I'm in a major city, and the grid isn't very stable, but stable enough for me to get an electric vehicle that I need to charge once a week. Solar panels are easy to get, but the utilities are realizing that nett metering isn'

Shameless plug, If anyone’s building one of these cards, I made a wallet microservice ( https://github.com/sudhirj/notecase ) for a movie ticket site I work on (justickets.in) It’ll let you track recharges, spends and ba

They do, automatic = electric. If you're not applying force from your muscles to move something, that force is being applied by electricity.

Think the OP meant in conjunction with each other, I.e going off grid. Solar panels on the roof, a full power wall and an electric car. That’s enough to keep you going as long as you can manage food and water.

Yes. The Heroku developer is still fantastic and pretty unique, and hasn’t been replicated (yet). If Heroku intends to maintain the lead, it’ll have to keep moving - the new offerings like Kafka and Redis before a pretty good - providing S3

You forgot to mention the child's ethnicity - that would obviously make the answer really easy :-/

In the same way that pants or trousers are singular, yeah. It’s really a pair of pants, trousers or scales. With all these things you need two to make them work.

@amzans any reason you’re doing a show HN now? Been following this for a while, and just noticed a new release... is there something in it that makes you feel it’s ready for prime time?

The great leverager that isn't mentioned or discussed generally is domain knowledge. The company has leverage if the cost of replacing you is low, and if your focus is React or Go or whatever, then the cost of replacing you is the cost

But won’t people get bored and just stop playing? I wonder if songs have gotten longer since the rise of Spotify and Apple Music.

The Netflix or Apple Music model might work. Fixed price per month for a catalog of games, with revenue shares happening based on play time. This a basically a solved problem for video and audio content, games don’t need to be different.

No it sounds like he was either an engineer or engineering manager somewhere in the DoD.

Think that’s the premise of Pascal’s wager, that if you simply multiply cost with expectation believing in God is a better bet. Of course with something like a general AI all bets are off. This neural link think is a horribly bad defense, b

The reverse argument made here is usually the turkey fallacy. For turkey, all logical evidence points to a continuously improving quality of life, with every need met and a constant availability of food. There’s no evidence that it’s going

That's why if find postings like this dangerous. If an author is asking someone to run a command, they really need to explain what the command does and what the tradeoffs are.

The users who really know what they're doing are going to refuse to disable system integrity protection. I paid a shitload of money for the T2 chip, secure signed boots, a virus-free environment and complete peace of mind from malware.

There is, but even the control click will only allow you to open signed software. Unless you build the software yourself (I'm not sure how homebrew still works) you cannot run it if it's not been notarized by Apple. Firefox was br

But isn’t the variance on this completely useless? It’ll depend entirely on the size of your cache, the region you’re in, the traffic at that time and rack you’re lucky enough to be on. Will also depend on AWS configs, which can change dail

Also note that you don’t necessarily have to scale down all the way to zero. Also works for workloads that are very spiky, like breaking news or weekend or work hours heavy loads.

On the order of tens of seconds, for a cold start from zero. Enough time to load your RAM cache from hibernation and boot up OS and Postgres.

I don't think the bacteria are eating the clothes, they're probably eating your sweat and shed skin. Leave them at it for a few days and they should naturally starve.

At the risk of sounding like an AWS apologist, this is really great if you have a use case for it. Don’t use it if you don’t. We’ve been waiting to use this for our dev and test environments - the devs and testers work irregular schedules,

Huh? Why wouldn’t it protect you from malicious modifications to the image in the future? Past mods might be a problem, but these are the official images we’re talking about.

The same problems that apply to production environments also apply to CI systems - you need to make sure those build agents are project-aware, up to date, and if you decide to move to a new JDK on one project you'll need to update your

You can use the official images and tag them with the SHA image ID - that should give cryptographically enforced security and reproducibility.
