Hi there, I work for a mobile payments company called Zoona (check us out at http://www.ilovezoona.com). Our tech team is based in Cape Town but all of our actual operations are in Zambia, Malawi and expanding to a few more countries soon. Getting some help on the dev would be awesome, and I'd be happy to chat more about what might make sense.

Feel free to get in touch and we can see if something makes sense - hans@ilovezoona.com.

(Same goes for anyone else reading this! Depending on your interests, may be able to link you to a few other projects doing some interesting stuff)
Until this post I didn't realize it wasn't going to orbit Earth in roughly the same spot as Hubble -- it's going to be roughly 4 times further away from Earth than the Moon is, orbiting L2!

To be fair, there are plenty of totally legal things you can do that open you up to lawsuits if you write them down. This wasn't one of them, but an email with the same text could have been completely innocuous.
There's no real opinion being given here. That would be like suggesting a general contractor on a new home was fired for difference of opinion, when the reason was he just didn't have insurance.
You're proposing holding good governance hostage. You assume those people care about good governance.
Exactly how I felt. I think this is because I focused on the left part of both pages instead of the right. The left side of the left flyer is much easier to read because the right flyer's text is too small and kind of ugly.

I found the right side of the left flyer less clean because of the lack of distance between the borders and text, but I wouldn't have even bothered to look there had I not read that the right was supposed to look cleaner.
Objectively, for virtually any definition of 'fidelity' vinyl has less fidelity than digital systems. If you read about the production on vinyl you will get a pretty good idea of the series of compromises in fidelity that are required to create a release. That said, the inherent deficiencies of the medium necessitate different and typically less aggressive mastering. Many listeners, including myself prefer this. If you were to listen to a digital recording mastered the same way you might be surprised to hear even more detail.

Fun fact: Some producers that use digital recording systems will mix in analog noise because the noise itself can be very pleasing in the right dosage. In this way it is used more like an effect rather than an inherent limitation of the recording process.

If you meant wildcard for receiving ... well ... few people can tolerate such a thing these days. The first brute force address guessing attack means you get everything they send. Then you get all the spam to those zillions of valid checked addresses.
I keep hearing from people here and there to use Dhall.

Anybody has direct impressions?
The difference is small. vonnik started it with the flamewar talking points. But I'd say generic_user made it worse in two ways, by upping the rage ante and by making it purely ideological, i.e. completely unmoored from anything factual in the story. Once things get to that point, people are just taking turns bashing each other tribally and trying to outdo the other in venom, and that's always bad for discussion here.

My issue has nothing to do with Scalia; it's the venom. There are plenty of examples in this thread of thoughtful, substantive critiques of Scalia. Consider https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11096422 and all its replies. That's how it's done.
Lawyerspeak: "It's just boilerplate."

Translation: "Yeah, that's one of the parts where we really screw you, but you don't have a choice, lol."
So, all this doesn't sound great, but... the specific accusation in the tweet is that they're tracking other applications that are open. Their privacy policy does not say they do that, and the Zoom twitter account says they don't either[0]. Now, it's a matter of trust, of course (and after [1] I wouldn't blame people for a lack of trust), but to state authoritatively that Zoom tracks other open applications seems like completely unsubstantiated fear-mongering.

The twitter thread in the OP says "collects data on the programs running" without backing anything up. Seems like FUD from the face of it. Yes, the privacy may not be perfect (according to EFF admins can see time spent by others in the organization on meetings etc.), and zoom can notify the meeting organizer about participants not having the window in focus. But that's it?

Not exactly the gravity touted in the linked twitter thread, saying "If you manage the calls, you can monitor what programs users on the call are running as well". No proof of that...

Kinda scared by how much a single tweet can make something blow up, without a shred of evidence backing the claims up.
Did they change an option to disable lineWidth? In 1.* it was not possible, which was my single biggest issue with Prettier.
Many times it made code less coherent, due to forcing a few lines to be collapsed into one.

See Prettier example in ESLint section of "How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Types & Tests", https://p.migdal.pl/2020/03/02/types-tests-typescript.html#e....

Germany has the lowest death rates on record even though the population of infected per age group was similar to Italy, but they are being very selective on testing dead people, so it could be a very misleading statistic - we may not know the true data, Germany may be doing something better than Italy or it could be worse and we just do not know, same as with all the states in the USA, if something is not being measured, all bets are off without a representative sampling or full sampling.
I'm learning how to refinish my decks. Needs some rotten wood replaced. A massive clean. A repaint. And a whole bunch of gross looking misaligned cuts replaced too. I'll then re-do the wiring for the staircase lights and outlet.

I like this project because it isn't blocking anything (like if I took the kitchen out). And when it's all done, this will be the summer I made our back decks beautiful rather than the summer we were stuck inside feeling anxious.
Your reference 1 is a deep-link that skips the intro. The intro says:

> The course designers believe that you are probably comfortable with mathematics. Therefore, this unit begins with an equation:

> good documentation = knowledge and skills your audience needs to do a task − your audience's current knowledge and skills

> In other words, make sure your document provides the information your audience needs that your audience doesn't already have. Therefore, this unit explains how to do the following: ...

This is the kind of fluff that turns many people off. Worse, it is confusing and tries to make a formula out of a sentence. The whole thing could’ve been replaced with the first sentence of the 3rd paragraph I quoted.

Your reference 2 contains this gem:

> Short sentences communicate more powerfully than long sentences, and short sentences are usually easier to understand than long sentences.

And the section title immediately after that sentence is:

> Focus each sentence on a single idea
How about investing money and/or developer hours into securing libpurple then? :)
bag of words is really old, and the post doesn't offer anything new with or about it (author doesn't even implement it)...why is this here?
> H never follows C in Slovak or Czech language

"viachodinový" (multihour), "viachlavý" (multiheaded)... in Slovak. Not sure if there are examples in Czech.

Essentially, in Slovak it is impossible to implement algorithmical alphabetical sorting without understanding the language, to determine whether "ch" appears on the word stem boundary. But yeah, you can sort 99.99% of words by assuming it does not... and maybe increase it to 99.9999% by making an exception for words starting with "viac-".
Emergency funds are for emergencies, and you never know when an emergency is going to happen. Stock market tanks and you lose your job, bet having all your money in stocks will feel real smart at that point.

It’s about balancing risk management and wealth. That balance is going to be different for everyone, but you always need to be a little cautious.
OK this is a fair point. Never thought of it this way.

Only OP can clarify but I hope it's just something he spent play money on that shot up 100x or something.

However, the rest of his portfolio isn't something I would emulate either.

I would consider someone more credible if they practice what they preach.
Does that mean that there are automated trading accounts that just buy whatever people tweet about? Which in turn push the price higher?

Is it like making link farms to game Google but in this case they are gaming the stock market?

If so, the issue is the algorithm.
Why did you believe the box fan did better? Did you do any kind of testing to verify that? The Blue Air's CADR is 2.7x that of a box fan.

I do agree that the box fan solution is a great low cost option for small to medium rooms, but if you need 1 device to purify a large area, it's not gonna cut it.

That is not normal native usage. If you make $50k, you're salaried at $50k, but you take home considerably less than that.
The additional benefit here is with a loan there is no tax event, a major advantage over selling.
Frankly, they are bad programmers. They are smart highly intelligent people who don't have either knowledge or aptitude or willingness to be good programmers.

My pet peeve in this business are supposedly good programmers who get praised despite never having actual results. And it is not like they would be rare.
Also who’s proposing a 40000 / year UBI? Most figures I’ve seen are for 2000 / month, aka 24000 / year.
I hope Emily can learn to separate work from not-work, and set those boundaries early in any new role. It's not healthy to work all the time, and we all need our own time.
I have one that we keep in our daughters nursery. The thing I like most is that it can run in auto mode and night mode meaning that it’s on all the time and the fan only runs from level 1-4 out of 10, which also means silent operation. It has a sensor for air particle and VOC that causes it to turn up. It seems to work (like if I fluff pillows or make the bed beside it it will detect a spike in particulates on the graph around that time. So, set and forget, silent operation, and safety for small fingers made it the best choice for us despite tests showing lower efficacy over a defined time frame.
I think this is a miss guided application and it's a sign that the cryptocurrency space is struggling to find a use case beyond as a store of value.

Please upvote my very original opinion that hasn't been rehashed on nearly every cryptocurrency thread on hacker news.
The results highlighted in the blog post are incredible, unfortunately, they are also cherry-picked: I've played with the prompt a bit, and every result (not involving a drawing) was disappointing…

I may have not been so disappointed if they had not highlighted such incredible results in the first place. Managing expectations is tough.
I was too. Linux is one of the least secure popular systems today.
It means there is much more money than profitable investments for it in the world. i.e the balance of power is shifting towards people who can build things.

There's a leading zero in the Fibonacci sequence? I thought it started 1,1,2
I find that I use my "favorites" on my browser a lot, then change computers and don't have the links I stored.

Google and Bing are very good at what they do, but there are certain articles/how-tos and such that I find very useful to keep around without having to remember the exact query I used to pull them up on Google. Also, search results change over time, so that blog article I loved might not score on the search engines like it did last year.

Bookmarking sites also offer some of the functionality a site like HN does, with popular/recent links coming in over time.

That's what I think is important, anyway.

Who cares if it's a startup or not? I'll take a paycut to work on something challenging and fun.
I think instead of a lower base salary and equity of a startup trying to go big early cashouts really call for higher salaries than big companies to be appealing.
You won't. Without exceptions, all founders I know that seem to have a chance to succeed are huge manipulators. I even think that this is a prerequisite to startup success. Those founders just have this special combination of personality and charisma that makes it almost impossible to say "no" to them, even if a minute ago you blamed yourself for allowing to exploit you.
> In the past, one could count on their hands and feet the number of contracts that one would enter into over one's life.

More recently - and still IMO OK - maybe you entered into more than 20 contracts in your life, but you were unlikely to have 20 contracts ongoing simultaneously. Today? I don't even know how many contracts or pseudo-contracts I'm involved in, but its in dozens.

That's my biggest reason I started to avoid SaaS and subscriptions as much as I can. Because every service you subscribe to is a relationship you enter, that you now have to manage, keep in mind. These add up quickly.

Uber lost in pretty much every market where they had local competition. Are there any counterexamples?
How many of those 74 million (Biden got 81) are on r/DonaldTrump?

So Parler should be mandated to host democrat/left views, too, right? After all, it'd be egregious to shut down the views of so many people.

Wait, no, Parler openly and happily deletes "non right wing posts, users and forums". My bad.
Take Twitter and remove even more context from a 10 year old comment.
I did not mean monopoly in the literal sense, just used it to express my feeling that a lot ends up flagged as spam that is not from these major corps servers.
Oh, I think that’s just a convoluted way of saying you lived in a bubble.

It was quite clear that this was going to happen. No one on my timeline is shocked at all. In fact, I’ve been complaining about these deplorables since 2013 (even before the phrase was coined).
You just admitted that "it's common". That's another way of saying "in most scenarios". I don't know why you're splitting hairs like this.
RNNoise is also available as a native voice filter in OBS and it works very well there.
The irony of people complaining about free speech and censorship when this happens is if you post ANYTHING even remotely against the current narrative in those subs you will be immediately banned by mods. You can literally quote trump word for word in /r/conservative and get banned if it happens to go against today's collective reality.

Rules for thee but not for me is the modus operandi and Wednesday was just an extension of that.
The people screaming "Free Speech" are well aware of the content and viewpoints espoused by sites like Parler and T_D. The fact of the matter is that they are supportive of people being killed and white supremacist autocracy being installed.
How did it let you slip into extremism?
GMail censors emails containing archive.org links to Damore memo

If you send an email containing the text in this image:

https://ibb.co/vYZvCW5

(the link is to archive.org of a website that used to contain the Damore memo)

then even with surrounding text, the email will be bounced by GMail with a generic message:

“The response was:
Message rejected. See https://support.google.com/mail/answer/69585 for more information.”

I made an earlier post on this topic, but it was deleted. See screenshot here:

Yeah their implant hardware is really impressive but "mind pong" is a pretty common starter project for at home EEG hacking, let alone legit BCI research. The internet is littered with examples of mind pong for the Muse like this one: https://medium.com/@nayvelt.lina/playing-ping-pong-with-my-b...

Granted it moves slower than actual Atari Pong, and takes a few minutes to get the hang of controlling the paddle. But IME it isn't much harder to control the up/down of the paddle with the EEG than it is to play a game like flappy bird, and that's using a couple random scalp electrodes from a consumer device.

So yeah thanks for bringing this up, because I feel some of the comments here are acting like this is much closer to "mind reading" than it actually is. Not that it isn't cool, but the overhyping kinda kills it for me lol. Is this how robotics people feel when Boston Dynamics releases a new video?

When you wake up you will find that the current president is not bullying twitter or making racist remarks thereupon whereas McTrumpie and S Cohen are looking to take down twitter. But you knew that.

I've never had that problem. :D

But for example, I threw Kubuntu (21.04 beta) on my Lenovo Thinkpad X1 Extreme 3 days ago. I'm already running Ubuntu 20.04 on a different partition and it runs fine.

Kubuntu + Wayland, omg, clean install, firefox wont run properly at all, if you change to any other theme the menu bars disappear. Running X11, mad screen tearing and makes the fans spin up like crazy. Wont detect BT so can't use headphones. It's a headache :(

Jason, thanks for sharing.
C/C++ highlighting is also a bit underwhelming; it's only coloring constants, comments, and strings. Kewords, precompiler directives, etc are ignored.
I'm pretty sure that both Microsoft and Sony are on a 10 year plan with both of those systems, which means you won't hear anything about a PS4 for another couple years at least.

That said, this seems like a pretty smart move on Nintendo's part. They get to release hardware thats not the most expensive/fastest available, but still beats the current market, and gets to live at the top of the performance chart for at least a few years.
This is exactly what I had in mind when I started working on http://collabde.appspot.com/ I used codemirror with mobwrite and appengine channel api. It currently works only for python though.
Govt is not smart enough to monitor day-to-day illegal/immoral activities of big corporations.

I'd like to add this:

- There's the possibility you will do something very wrong if you roll your own from libraries

For example, HTTP serving frameworks are popular because the HTTP protocol is complicated, not to mention best practices around security that have evolved over decades and are still evolving, and the (ideal framework) will handle a lot of high-level protocol logic (do you really want to parse mimetype ranges and do Accept matching? How about CORS? Cookie signing?) on your behalf, calling into your code only for the business logic.
Interesting, trying to do that in Safari gives an error (in Italian). Something about those URLs not being allowed. I'm guessing that Chrome does allow you to do this?

Same problem here in Aus, except I think things might be a wee bit more competitive here than NZ (judging from when my mate lived there a few years ago). Still it's not enough to make people want to share their tight quotas.
Stategic reasoning is one of the very few things that makes us truly human. Running fast is and never was our thing. We compete, sure, but there's something eerie about a machine entity out _thinking_ us.

OP is saying something like "when I cook things with my freezer they don't get hot." It's that non-sensical.

Git can't do (at all) what he wants to accuse it of doing wrong (because it has nothing to do with what git does). So I'm just pointing out the closest approximation to what he's aiming at is to use pull --rebase.

Personally I like to have a straight line history as a default and only merge when required. Rather than always merge by default.

Edit: Ok, I'm not sure I understand the point of the pastebin. Maybe. If you want the lower C to become X you need to git checkout master and then git rebase c. Not the other way around. Is that it?
