Oh shoot. Sorry I didn't even think about having a content blocker running on my phone. Sorry for the distraction.

On safari mobile it's a page with the title header and a footer. Theres no content rendering.

Because the page lazy-loads comments that link doesn't work either.

Full text of the comment from migrated 9/11/2020, 1:38:27 PM:

I saw the same Reddit post and decided to investigate. I skimmed MCP 1.12 because I still have it lying around and that version is affected.

In what it calls EntityBoat’s updateFallState, if the boat’s status is not ON_LAND, fall damage is nullified. That will be the case when falling from most heights, because the last time the boat’s status was updated was before it hit the ground. There is only a small exception because the boat checks blocks up to a thousandth of a block below it when updating its status. If it ends up just barely above the ground, its status becomes ON_LAND before hitting the ground, allowing fall damage to take effect.

This happens at the given heights because gravity subtracts 0.04F from the boat’s Y velocity. If it were exactly 0.04, the boat would have fallen an integral number of blocks every 2 ticks out of 25: 12, 13; 49, 51; 111, 114; 198, 202; and so on. The boat ends up falling very slightly less than that because 0.04F is rounded down as a 32-bit float, placing it just above the ground and allowing it to become ON_LAND before hitting it.

ipython saved me this week when it color coded

  b'\x100'

Which was not obvious to me in the print output that it is \x10 and a literal 0.

Money, of course. Both greed and comfort.

Can add any detail to "sell you out"? Was it explicit violation of expected privacy of the conversation?

Porter also had a breach recently. I assume it is as tightly scoped as they say to not have publicized it.

> 30 db instances

They didn't say that and the article didn't allude to that. 1 instance with 30 databases.

Serious fear I have.

I brought it up two years ago and get downvoted when I brought it up a couple months ago.

There is a story on the front page right now about someone losing their child's family videos from a youtube ban. We hear about this stuff all the time. I suspect we are gonna be in somewhat of an arms race with AI products as the bubble grows over the next 18-24 months. This makes me worried about how disadvantaged people are going to be if they lose access to the better platform (whichever that ends up being).

Do you think AI is going to be so important that we would benefit from legal protections for access?

Or do you think the models and technology will become so small we will be able to personalize / decentralize the tech and it still be useful / competitive?

why did you seemingly create two HN accounts?

Edit: I see this appears to be a contributor to the project as well. It was not obvious to me.

The left stick is generally used for throttle and is not centered with springs but rather adjustable and holds its position in the Y-axis direction.

Would love to. My email is my username at gmail or my first name at my username dot com.

I am building a very similar thing after a short stent at a robotics company in 2024. The industry is very far behind more general dev experience and tooling.

I am forced to accept the popularity of ROS but I find it to generally be a terrible experience. Are you considering an alternative? Have you used foxglove?

It's on the front page right now below this link but just for anyone looking later:

Not OP but of some bird owners I've see that let their birds hang out in their house / on their shoulders and such the birds willingly go to their cage to rest.

I built something on top of DuckDB last year but it never got deployed. They wanted to trust Postgres.

I didn't use the in browser WASM but I did expose an api endpoint that passed data exploration queries directly to the backend like a knock off of what new relic does. I also use that same endpoint for all the graphs and metrics in the UI. Just filtered out the write / delete statements in a rudimentary way.

DuckDB is phenomenal tech and I love to use it with data ponds instead of data lakes although it is very capable of large sets as well.

And "data pond"? Glad I am not alone using this term! Somewhere between a data lake and warehouse - still unstructured but not _everything_ in one place. For instance, if I have a multi-tenant app I might choose to have a duckdb setup for each customer with pre-filtered data living alongside some global unstructured data.

Maybe there's already a term that covers this but I like the imagery of the metaphor... "smaller, multiple data but same idea as the big one".

I remember a somewhat prominent dev in the DC area putting on Twitter around 2012 or so something like "I do plenty of open source coding and I don't put a fucking license on it" and it stuck with me for all these years that it was a weird stance to take.

Stop letting things sink in—that’s just negative imaging. Instead, let your ideas soar! Focus on high-level vision and limitless growth. #GrowthMindset #Innovation #Leadership #ThinkBig

I had no clue this was a thing. Thanks for sharing your thought...

I think it's a combination of our pesticide usage and general food processing but like a sibling said these are educated guesses.

Signed up to walk my first ever in my life 5K at the end of this month and I'm already getting some improvement in my balance with just walking more and faster.

Tell me more about the slackboard... any particular way you play with it? 41 and have lost what very small amount of snowboarding skills I had in my 20s before I was 30. I have looked at them and the balance boards because I know I need to do _something_.

I always assumed that was one of the benefits of FAANG offering onsite company doctors.

I never had full 90 degrees up on one wing but I had 40-60 degrees which was enough for me to know I didn't like it.

Winds aloft were 30-40kts and there is a pass in the mountains east of Asheville NC at Chimney Rock we would fly over regularly. On that day I caught what I assume was mountain rotor and it was like being on a mechanical bull.

Scroll back search is coming. You can try it in the nightly.

Correct

Neat!

Social previews would be great to add
