Playing with fire. It could be potentially construed as an attempt to steal personal info.

Have you ever publicly fought for consumer or other rights? Please link to where you've made a difference in the world.

Worthy if its own hacker news post. Would love to see it.

The alternative is enshittification of the entire product lineup to include ads, exorbitant subscription prices, reduced functionality along a painful price gradient, morphing into a dopamine social product, or a goal to rent real-life assets for to an increasingly impoverished population. Pee in your piss bottle while delivering that Amazon package until we can figure out how to automate your job away too. The shareholders demand it!

... and then there's a falling out in your friends circle, and someone is reported.

100%. I've discovered the floor: Small cars that probably aren't safe, trashed interior, and drivers who smell of literally every vice while talking on the phone AND playing whatever music all together. "Premium" is simply not that experience.

Running w/ my opnsense router. All-in-one.

There's a future, not in the short-term, where 99% of folks don't need to or want to own a car. You hail a ride, and a vehicle shows up, perhaps with 3 of people in the vehicle in their own bubble internally designed into the car. You get in, it drops offs others in the vehicle, and then finally drops you off. The vehicle exhausts its entire electric charge, recharges, and then gets back on the road. The number of vehicles on the road is down 50%.

I'm constrained by libraries with guaranteed version compatibility. Unless you're operating in NIH universe, I bet you are as well.

Why even publish a comparison? Raptor Lake processors aren't a functioning product to benchmark against.

Could there a be a future where consumption is met with equal parts restoration and environmental investment by the companies themselves? I'd like a progressive system where whole foods nutrition, clean water, shelter, and medical care is subsidized below cost, but then everything else requires us to pony up when purchasing.

And yet here you are.

Intel is already running their CPUs at the red line. We're seeing the margin breaking down as Intel tries to remain competitive. The latest 14900KS can even pull > 400W. It's utter insanity.

I wonder why many don't consider working with a lot of data off of a NAS that could benefit from the cleaner network setup. 6Ghz is also clearly helpful as an early adopter.

After I took ownership of my home, I cataloged over 100 issues that needed to be attended to post-construction. I want a home without obvious in-your-face-faults. The construction crew wanted to finish and move onto the next project. Our incentives were not aligned, and that's the problem.

Next time, I'm specifically going to ensure another contractor is hired to ensure QC of the home during construction. No moving onto the next stage until the 1 foot hole in the subfloor caused by a falling drill from the 2nd story is fixed.

Letting go is so important because it what lets you move on. Without letting go, I've seen people who anticipate the situation happening again every time the context is the same. They relive the stress/situation even though nothing bad is actually happening, and then resent their partner once more for it. It's a never-ending cycle of pain and anger. Please just make the decision to leave it!

All of my 10g equipment is silent or near silent. Most recent purchase is the TP-Link TL-SX105. Take another look the next time you redo your home network. At least consider multi-gigabit.

Additionally, companies do not have a right to exist. If your business needs to pay minimum wage, profits are thin, and employees are quitting to find something better, it probably shouldn't be a thing any more. There isn't a labor shortage - your business isn't providing enough value for the labor it requires.

Multiple comments here talking about releasing the source code, as if it's just throwing it over the wall. Open-sourcing software successfully is a commitment to engage with the community on design and implementation over time. Otherwise at best it will be forked and then then lead by another group.

This new city most likely depends on getting necessary regulatory and code approvals that would be impossible elsewhere. There's also a reason why towns become ghost towns, and the investors putting in $400B in funding probably don't want to start with one foot in the metaphorical grave.

It'd be interesting to follow the particulate levels in Paris before and after this change occurs.

Looking at FreeNAS's page, it's all "Get Quote" nonsense for anything rack mounted. Needs a system configuration page with prices to play around with.

We (the guy in the article and myself) live in a nation where insurance companies would rather see you die than pay out, insulin is $350/bottle when it's $7 to produce, and politicians that we elect are entirely for it all. We have ourselves to blame for setting the moral standard.

This is an extremely narrow point of view, and one that actually hinders the support of properly dealing with climate change.

Halo car engineering results in trickle down effects to all of the vehicles you and I drive on a daily basis. Tire materials and engineering, aerodynamics r&d, suspension improvements, and so forth can apply to all types of vehicles, regardless of whether or not the power comes from an ICE engine or electric motor.

So while you may see this as a needless exercise in achieving 300 mph on a combustion engine, I see this as perhaps something that could give a 1% increase in fuel economy to VAG's entire fleet. Of course it's not a given, but let's applaud and support the potential.

Strawman. Nobody claimed the ATX standard enabled innovation. It enabled the reduction of e-waste as OP indicated. Think of this the next time you trash your innovative phone or laptop because the non-user replaceable battery/ram/ssd/display/whatever failed.

We have metrics such as cyclomatic complexity, however they don't connect with software engineers yet to drive decision making from my experience.

When I was 15, I discovered Usenet and the various binaries subgroups. This was beyond what my folks understood was on the PC. Your son will access content beyond your current understanding as well. Additionally, you might have a monitor on the PCs you own, but you don't have a monitor on his friends PCs either. The monitoring game is already lost. You indicate a loss of trust, but it goes both ways. There's absolutely no way he's going to tell you anything now that you've dealt the monitoring card. He's not going to thank you in the future. He's simply not going to say anything about it.

Exactly. Immediately from the premise of the paper, I was looking forward to a discussion on how they tried various strategies to tune their JVM/GC parameters and found nothing. The "well I guess we gotta replace this with a C++ solution" sentiment smacks of poor software engineering practice, despite the results.

What would be the cost difference moving to Google Cloud or other cloud provider? The reason why I'm asking is that the move itself requires a re-consideration of all production configuration. The indicated savings assumes that Dropbox was using Amazon 100% efficiently to begin with.

The key to microservices is a framework and tooling around them to make them work for you. Release management, AuthN/AuthZ, compilation, composition, service lookup, etc. should all be "out-of-the-box" before microservices should ever be considered. Otherwise the O(n) gains you get in modularity turn into O(n) FML.
