It means certain proxies that proxy claude to opencode will still use subscription credits. So yes, indirectly this will mean you can still use claude with opencode without API credits.

Linus torvalds famously said you shouldn't rebase for shared work, it's not a clear cut thing that not knowing how to rebase is bad per se since you shouldn't be using it a lot in the first place in his philosophy, refusing to learn is a different story however.

Dictatorship is very good at combating crime if it's under good hands (which itself is a tall order imo), just look at Singapore, the problem with dictatorship is the lack of accountability and 99% of dictators simply suck at governing hence democracy is usually better since most dictators have a severe case of Dunning–Kruger effect. People like Bukele and Lee Kuan Yew are very few and far between.

I've always wondered why people dismiss dedicated hosting without a second thought. It's actually cheaper than AWS if you factor in all of the performance you get.

I do recall reading somewhere that Amazon.com isn't actually hosted or fully leveraging on the AWS platform, mostly due to the political struggle between the AWS and the merchant department.

Universal healthcare is not the same thing as government-run and provided healthcare.

This is one of the generation gap thing. Kinda like knowing how to install Windows 95 OS on a machine, you need to run all sorts of command line utilities before you can actually perform the installation, and you have to go out and get the drivers manually, and sometimes you have to use your floppy disk to install the CD rom driver so you can install the network driver from the CD, then select the right .ini file in the driver folder that matches your CD readers spec. People used to know how to do all of that, but nowadays?

I think we'll probably have a generation of drivers who will simply not know what to do and would probably get lost easily if their phone breaks/data-plan runs out.

Same here, arguably this is one of the most important elements on the front page, open source or not.

Look at this open source project for example: http://activeadmin.info/

The front page doesn't leave you wondering why the fuck do you want to use ActiveAdmin for.

I would also use Typescript as well, because, type safety is super helpful when it comes to debugging. Unless you never programmed in a static typed language like C# or Java before, there's not really any good reasons for avoiding it imho.

If you are planning to ditch jQuery, make sure you consult this:

I'm opposed to using it for beginners who aren't familiar with the phonetic system of the language. Once you learned the phonetic system properly, and you know the character's in Romaji and Pinyin don't represent the sound you know in English, of course it's then helpful for learning how to type Japanese or Chinese.

Don't get me wrong, Romaji has useful purposes, such as representing place names in Japan for foreigners, etc. But as a learning device for learning Japanese, it's not a very good one.

I'm against Pinyin for the same reason as why I'm against using Romaji for learning Japanese. Pinyin and Romaji uses latin alphabet for representing sounds in a foreign language and if you are a native English speaker like most of us on HN, it's really bad because your brain will try to associate your knowledge of English with Pinyin you are reading. If you use Zhuyin for Chinese, or the Kana system for Japanese, you are telling your brain to start learning the phonetic system from scratch, which makes learning Chinese or Japanese a lot easier phonetically at least.

Actually Canada is a weird one when it comes to immigration. Work based skilled immigration to Canada is certainly easier than the US. But if you want to marry a Canadian and want to move to Canada as an American citizen, you have to wait 2 years for the visa to get approved, and there is no fiance visa or anything to speed up the process.

It doesn't really address the question at hand but I do agree with you, especially considering the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

not which country has suzerain over which scrap of land

Personally, I don't care much for which country "owns" which scrap of land either, but usually it is the very same passionate nationalists that you referred to that disagree with us. Which is why, I've asked the original question, with what right does any country own a certain piece of land, or not own certain piece of land.

In what way would you say those terroritories do not belong to China, or any other country in the region? Or better yet, what makes even places like Canton, Shanghai even belong to China? (Keep in mind I'm not saying these lands do or do not actually belong to China, but I'm merely asking under what grouds do you make these claims)

China and Japan actually only hated each other in the last 100 years (maybe 50). If you look at the period of time of last 2000 years China and Japan were on much more reasonable terms.

except when in PHP you occasionally have a feature that itself is a security hole by definition, aka. register_globals

Can anyone tell me what's the obsession with updating the OS? I've been trying to turn off OS updates for android because it's very annoying.

> It dissapoints me to think about how much legitimate human knowledge has been wiped from WP

Wikipedia has never been about collecting sum of human knowledge, as it claims. It's about collecting sum of human knowledge that it can verify.

Wikipedia is designed from the beginning to be a tertiary source, and it's not an accident. This is why if you try to put any original content in it, it will usually get reverted, not because the content is wrong or even unhelpful, but the fact that nobody can verify it. (I'm not saying whether this is a good or a bad thing, it's just the way Wikipedia works) If you want to contribute original knowledge, don't use Wikipedia as a vehicle for doing so, you are better off writing to a blog/magazine/academic journal.

Well, how else do you think http://www.bennylingbling.com/tag/schrodingers-bug/ originated

I'm pretty sure it was done on purpose judging by the title of the blog and the type of font he used.

There are no known good implementation of scrypt in php (http://stackoverflow.com/questions/10149554/are-there-any-ph...) So I don't know how "production ready" that is considering php is the most popular platform for the web as much as I hate the language.

The problem is, notability in Wikipedia is different than notability you are used to in general language. In fact Wikipedia notability is a misnomer.

Wikipedia actually doesn't really care about you being "worthy" of notice or interesting. What it actually cares about is that if there are reliable sources that could back up your claim, which is what Notability is mostly about. It's there for a more pragmatic reason, of writing a encyclopedia where contents could be verified by an external source.

From personal experience, there are not much difference in access time from China to servers hosted in Japan or United States. They are both slow as hell to access. (If there are any difference in access time it would be very small for any users to notice). The cause may be the fact that Chinese ISP's proxies all requests to foreign sites.

If your customers are indeed coming from China, the most logical place to host your server would be Hong Kong IMO. It has good access time from the Chinese mainland and from other Asian countries.

This article reminds me of "Things You Should Never Do Part I" by Joel, and it certainly echo's the same kind of sentiment towards rewriting your application.

You are going to the undetectable silent jail for posting national secret on HN

Percisely, this is why sometimes articles that do not have very good notability gets included without problems. Wikipedians are biased, like any other people, which means some articles may never get challenged for notability, and some editors may decide to keep the article that would normally fail notability test. Other times, mainly but not exclusively biographies of living people, are often placed with a much higher notability standard, mainly due to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_biography_controversy

In fact Wikipedia has a page called http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:IAR which encourages editors to ignore policies and guidelines that hinders them from improving Wikipedia. (How well this policy is applied these days, I honestly do not know)

However, just because notability is a guideline, doesn't mean I should make up a word like "xryzcbslmrwp463vnfd" and define that using Wikipedia.

Now, with regards to wikipedia admins deleting articles overzealously, this is indeed a problem in my opionion, and I have undeleted articles that would of be kept if it was actually discussed in Articles for Deletion. The thing is, most Wikipedia newbies, do not know how to contest the deletion of their article, or even know they should be contesting it because the notability is there and can be asserted.

Bands which sold 3 copies of their CD tend to have no reliable sources indicating its existance even, with no sources, how is anyone able to ensure that it even exists? (Perhaps I should of reworded that). Notability criteria in a nutshell, basically means, the subject of the article needs to be mentioned by some reliable source. If we had no notability criteria, then we simply have no ways to ensure that the subject of the article exists or even real.

Note: I'm pretty much summarizing what's on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:N If you think I'm biased, please read the policy directly on Wikipedia itself.
