The thing is that many X apps DO have fractional scaling under X, but not under Wayland. This implies that it could be made to work but for some reason isn't.
You could say that when you have that much wealth, you can retire and live the good life.

But it's true that these people keep going. Like Elon could have retired at any stage when he sold a company, but instead invested it in a new one. You know, spend time with family and friends. Instead he's running multiple companies.

My theory is that this is exactly the reason why they are so wealthy, and the rest of us are not.
> i should add, anxiety level can influence this system a lot

The interesting thing is I have very low anxiety, I actually am taking this whole Covid thing in stride. I'm more of the "if it's my time, it's my time" sort of thinker. But when you stand up from a prone position and then world starts fading to black, it's not anxiety related!

I often forget this can even happen (it's not in the back of my mind), and when it happens again, I find it "extremely annoying", if you can believe that, rather than scary.
These techniques are also used by everyday “boring” brands to sink bad reviews and similar. In many cases it’s primarily US-based companies that are leveraging some of these EU protections in addition to all the copyright/DMCA stuff in the US.

It’s not really that expensive either. You can go with a reputation management company or just use your own legal team once you’re large enough.

The more-annoying part is that it is getting harder to see who and what has been taken down so it’s harder to track the information that’s being targeted and the people behind it. Google has been providing less information in the DMCA notices (they used to basically be a complete list of the offending content) - I think now they just list paths or domains but not the complete URL.
What kind of terms do you mean? Opening with "I might procrastinate" will make interviewing much more difficult - many companies will disqualify you regardless of their mental health initiatives.
Have their profitability prospects taken a hit because of whatever happened at ARM China?
The idea behind that comment seems to have been: "MS has a known motive: they want to sell you software and make money. This is a business model I understand, and can deal with being on the other end of." The same argument is used in iOS vs Android debates: why isn't it the same shit, different smell? Because Apple sells you hardware, and Google sells You.

The glib terseness of the comment is a metaphor for the relative harmlessness of the business model. Not indicative of the actual product selection or annual revenue.

I think, anyway...?
And the virus is mutating.
"which you then immediately stick in your mouth."

Sticking the food into your mouth isn't much of a concern, there's no evidence that covid-19 can transmit "foodborne".

The actual issue is an infected food prep worker contaminating the wrapper or the food itself, you touching the wrapper or the food, then touching your eyes or nose prior to washing your hands.
Monads are very simple. If you know how futures / promises work (the chain of .then), you already have enough intuition about them.

Also, (Glasgow) Haskell has ghci, a rather nice REPL. You only need to learn to use :{ ... :} for multiline stuff. It's very good for quick experimentation with zero build time.
Firewalls can redirect port 53 to another IP. That prevents things from hard coding to a specific IP.

Also, there's a lot of people in London who don't really have the space to keep large stockpiles of food in, or necessarily much in the way of decent cooking facilities.
Ask Matteo! It is probably not that expensive, but in a pandemic supply chains get squeezed and hackers come to the rescue.
Put a caching reverse proxy in front of dynamic content, like Varnish. That way the technically less inclined can keep using traditional UIs. Keep in mind most people don't even grok the static/dynamic distinction, they just want to publish content

I don't think it's about professionalism. It's about aligning the presentation with the reality.

I believe such designs are appropriate and well-suited for all-volunteer, community-run projects and there should be no generalized push to change them.

git may not have been the best example - but I did really like the monster.
You should focus more on the "why" aspect. I enjoy the cheeky, opinionated angle that this project is taking on the act of unfollowing, but I don't think you've taken it far enough.

What are the different reasons someone might hit the unfollow button?

They might unfollow because the other person tweets too much. This would probably warrant a polite notification: "Your tweets are cool and all, but they were getting in the way of other people's tweets!"

They might unfollow because the other person said something that deeply offended them. This could involve a little more snark, but if you really want to sell the "let them know" approach, you should probably ask the unfollower to indicate which tweet was the "last straw."

I really like the simple design and unambiguous layout. Keep tweaking it, dude!
The number-one thing Disqus had going for it was Daniel Ha's omnipresence and superhuman kindness. When they had a forum, Daniel Ha made an effort to answer every question, no matter how ridiculous or rude, in the most elaborate, inhumanly kind way. If a blogger - oftentimes a big one - mentioned Disqus but expressed some reservations, Daniel would be quick to contact them with offers for a complete transition walkthrough - and I am sure a lot of people took him up on the offer.

Second, you can not whisper Disqus's name in a toilet stall in the outskirts of Siberia without Gianii or Daniel hearing you. They've got all kinds of alerts configured so they can respond to every publicly declared frustration with Disqus, and they're impeccable at what they do.

Daniel Ha's effort to fight any reservations and unfounded doubts about the service is a case study that should be in every entrepreneur's mandatory curriculum. I think of his philosophy every time I consider the community aspects of a hypothetical project.
Bouldr is DEFINITELY one of the sites in the "Should be incredibly popular, but isn't" category. I'm a member and can't really figure out why it's not as popular as it should be.

Best of luck! Keep up the good work.
Who would host the servers though? A standards organization? I doubt they could afford it.

That, or it will be like email, where everyone has @example.com appended to their username.

Neither situation strikes me as desirable.
I've even seen this happen to people in good shape. The combination of no sleep, low blood sugar, heat, stress from speaking, and then standing for a period of time can all add up. Especially if you "lock" you legs while standing, which can lower the blood pressure to the upper body (head).

Still, it is wise to visit a doctor ASAP to have your ticker checked.

I hope Bill is okay - what an awesome individual!
Actually you can, they're called mockups and focus groups, you don't actually engineer 20 iphone models or 10 different shaped cars.
I'd rather not get into a discussion of what "privacy" means, but Twitter (and Facebook) are almost certainly violating most of their users' perceptions of what Twitter does with their tweets. That said, if they anonymize the tweets and hold the buyers contractually obligated not to de-anonymize them, I think most users would be OK with that. Each user owns their tweets, as does Twitter, but only Twitter owns all of the tweets.
He doesn't actually work for the company. Rapiscan Systems is a client of his security firm Chertoff Group. Here is a more detailed article http://www.boston.com/news/nation/washington/articles/2010/0...
I consider myself very fortunate, despite having a very strict [e.g. practically nonexistent] work-from-home allowance. It's not something I take lightly, for better and worse.

For instance, at the moment I spend ~40 hrs in the office and ~40hrs in grad school and on side projects. As a result, I have very little time available for leisure or even meaningful relationships. My extra-work effort is driven in part by a fear of skill obsolescence, and competition with my peers - who are among the best in the world at what they do.

At times I wonder if my priorities are a little backwards, but at times I feel so driven I'm not sure I could truly relax even if I wanted to.
Oculus Rift. Please.
Pakistan wants to be a Middle Eastern country.
The two are not interchangeable, though. XML allows mixed content, i.e. something like

<Foo>Some text <Bar>more text</Bar></Foo>

while JSON does not. So there isn't a 1:1 mapping, at least not in the direction XML → JSON (and the other direction only works if you have a schema that defines data types for the document).
The former director of Public Prosecutions says that it's "a recipe for injustice". More importantly, it isn't going to stop anything. Oh, and on top of all that, "king hits" and violent crime has decreased in Australia, so why implement such an idiotic, short-sighted law? Oh, to make the populace who have been riled up by the media feel better.

Mandatory sentencing is a blight on the rule of law, and takes away the point of the justice system.
I've found there's a broad categorization talent/skills in QA, but a lot of it boils down to this separation -> Able to do development related tasks (set up their own envs, run different versions of apps, etc.) or not.

Anecdotally, it also seems to correlate with how useful Developers usually find their peers.
Pakistan is about as Middle Eastern as Iran is.....
Can you report back on the results? I'd be very interested in finding out how they respond. I think they have to register a crime and give you a crime number if you ask for one.
> Now it's amazing that this in this day and age that is acceptable but i guess you can get away with anything if you say the magic word: "It's my religion/culture".

I don't think anyone here is saying it's acceptable. But maybe there's a easier way than instantly rebelling, losing her funding for living expenses/college, and possibly getting a headhunter after her. Perhaps she can keep up the "denied entry into the US" lie long enough to make it finish college and become more independent, and then have the strength to fight?

Being pragmatic instead of idealistic isn't always wrong. Especially when your future life is on the line.
I have been learning Emacs for a few months now, and am loving it (mostly), but I'm going to skip the Emacs issue and focus on his problem with xml.

"Doing this effectively requires your data to be tree-structured."

I have actually been replacing XML with YAML in lots of places. I find the structure much less verbose, and easier to understand, and has features that JSON lacks, and I almost never have problems with delimiter collision. If you haven't yet, I really suggest checking out YAML, but that's just my two cents.
Agreed.

Focus your 20s on personal growth, relationships, skills. The money is a distraction and not a very inspired goal, it will come.
I cannot vouch for that either way. My experience from Europe is that A LOT depends on your clothing and general demeanor.

An Indian dressed a in silk three piece suit and a Philippe Patek watch on his wrist will be treated with obsequious deference by the store personnel. A Roma guy dressed as stereotypical Roma will be suspected and followed. Their skin colors are identical.

At the end of the day, money talks.
> If 1000 people live in California and 100 of those people live in Berkeley, even if all 100 people in Berkeley agree with something, if the majority of Californians disagree it would and should override what the Berkeleyians want.

This comment is facile. Your stance is much more broad and encompassing than "mandatory voting" if you're saying that higher levels of government have unilateral authority to override local authority.
> But I can't really see much benefit to that

Look at the recent Nagorno-Karabakh conflict to see how much UAVs are a game-changer:

"With Bitcoin, a private key, picked at random, is run through these algorithms to generate a public key. And the Bitcoin protocol uses the hash value of this to create a public Bitcoin address.

A quantum computer could reverse this process and derive the private key from a public one. And voila! Bitcoin’s claim of inviolability and unhackability is gone, and you have access to any Bitcoin wallet you want."

This is both right and completely wrong at the same time. It does mention that addresses are hashes of the public key, but then goes on to the unjustified leap that quantum computers would let you access "any Bitcoin wallet you want." That's absolutely false: addresses which have received Bitcoins but never sent them have not revealed their corresponding public key. There's no technique I'm aware of that would let a quantum computer efficiently invert the hash to find the public key. Most Bitcoin wallets are configured such that each time you send bitcoins to someone, the "change" of the transaction goes to a different address.

The risk comes from when a single address is re-used multiple times for multiple transactions, and has sent those proceeds to other addresses. Such multi-use addresses have revealed their public keys, and thus would be susceptible to a quantum computing attack. This is way, though, the advice since the inception of Bitcoin has been never to re-use addresses in this way, but instead always to generate new ones as needed.
Female pattern baldness and alopecia are (IMO) much more impactful to a person than male-pattern baldness.
C was ported to any platform. Free crap (when it comes to programming languages) win, because they can be used everywhere therefore a better thing to learn. For example, Borland never opened the sources of the compiler, and Turbo Pascal has never been ported to platforms other than DOS/Windows.

Free crap in other areas (such as computer graphics) did not win over purchased quality. For example graphics designers even choose their Operating System based on available (non-free) quality software.
Zoning period only exists to stop people of particular races from moving into neighborhoods.

All the other things we see as benefits of zoning came later, in order to justify that original reason.

And most of the things we assume zoning is protecting us from are misunderstandings. "A rowhouse across the street from a high rise building or factory" is not something government has any constitutional basis to regulate on its own; all that comes from a court case that was pretty explicitly to keep black people away from white people.
I don't like everything the GNU project produces, but I do find that they tend to produce working software, at least among the stuff I commonly use. One of the first things I do on non-Linux boxes is install GNU coreutils, because the alternative coreutil options (Solaris, FreeBSD, etc.) tend to be some mixture of slow and buggy. One of the things GNU got right in its early days, imo, was to declare "no hard-coded arbitrary constants". So GNU awk and sed don't crap out with messages like "awk: record too long" because your line was longer than some hard-coded buffer size. Also, everyone else's grep seems slow.
"get the job done regardless of how much time it takes"

Here's the problem. In my previous job as a programmer (video game development) we were given more work than was possible in the usual working hours. So we had to do work additional hours (unpaid) to catchup - which was pretty much constant throughout a project. This meant my employer was getting work done for free.

Honestly the additional hours nearly made me quit full-time employment. I felt stressed all the time, and took it out on my friends and family.

Never again.

Now I work for the government and get full overtime pay. All is well :)
This does a good job of illustrating how patterns in nature formed by cells can self organize. I haven't dug in to see how similar the implementation is, but when you look at the way these textures develop it sure looks like it.
Let's say the chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee learns via his work that a high-ranking member of the CCP is sending secrets to the United States in exchange for safe passage out of the country. Is it ultimately beneficial for that information to be made fully transparent?
Off topic: Self promotion is not prohibited on HN, in fact it's even (semi) encouraged. But I feel like I've seen link to your blog too many times lately. And indeed, looking at your comment history, it seems to me that every other comment is a content-free plug to the blog. That's a bit too excessive
The problems you cite depend on the implementation. Wikipedia could require ads to be unobtrusive, from a diverse set of advertisers, and placed via a system (perhaps completely automated) that insulates from advertiser meddling in content. And, anyone who's truly offended by ads could turn them off at their option, just like the [X] on the campaign ad.

Such a system might generate 10X the revenues. If Wikipedia doesn't need them all, either for current year operations or a lasting endowment, they could liberally fund other free-culture projects with the surplus.

The biggest risk I see -- and what I believe to be the de facto reason ads haven't been more seriously considered -- is that a large portion of the editor community shares your (IMHO irrational) fear of ads, and this fear could become self-fulfilling if the introduction of ads drives away editors.

Even this might be addressable with careful handling, though. For example, what if there was one official Wikipedia mirror that had ads -- rather than the hundreds of unofficial ad-drenched mirrors? The default site would still be ad-free, for all editors, users who opt to visit or link-to the ad-free site, and inlinks from ad-free or primarily non-commercial sites. But, inlinks from major commercial entities (like say Google) would go to the ad site, unless that user had opted differently.

Doesn't that give everyone what they want -- lots more money for free culture projects with a large default sphere insulated from the 'corrupting' influence of money?
If Yahoo were really planning to sell Delicious all along, why would they sack everyone?

Pushing a fix for that now. Devise is one touchy bastard. >:|
The code I'm working on right now is littered with functions which take "url" as a parameter, and normalize it with this line:

url = url_normalize(url)

It's often convenient, for the sake of clear code, to be able to modify the values of the function's argument variables.
I see you fixed this. :)
Even taking that into account. YC companies didn't used to describe themselves as (YC Xxx) until after they went through the process.

AFAIK there's always been a winter class (the second class I believe took place in Winter 06)
That's it. I'm doing a "buy a pixel" ... and with an little extra to choose color, of course.
Maybe we can start weekly office hour threads here and we'll all upvote the thread so the newcomers eventually see the service.
There is another interesting startup in similar space from Australia.

... it is a good side of having only 300000 of population.
My observations convinced me that there can be no democracy with population bigger than 50E6 people.
To some extent education tries to do that, but imo it's pretty bad when it really does it consistently. The person who spent a lot of hours on a-not-really-working project gets a better grade than the person who actually produced an impressive result, but managed to pull it off the night before and made the mistake of not hiding the fact that they didn't spend a lot of hours on it. That's not actually that uncommon in college, since there's a huge range of ability and prior experience in a typical class, and professors do try to base some of their grade on how earnestly the student appeared to work on it: to save face, they can't give an A to the student who did the whole semester project in a day, even if the result was objectively better than most of the others.

End result of that approach is that the kids learn that hard work matters, but results don't. Now you have someone who'll optimize for "hours put in", worrying more about whether they're impressing the boss with their work ethic than about the quality of the end results they're delivering. Sort of a common feature of corporate culture, where the guy who stays late and comes in weekends is praised, even if the guy who went home at 5pm every day is the one producing most of the working code.

The other lesson you learn from that is: if you solve a major problem in two hours, withhold the result and pretend you spent two weeks working on it, then present it later and get praised for working hard on the problem for two weeks and solving it.
The one I linked to is exactly the same as the one in this HN submission (on an alternate mailing list archive site, because the one used in the submission seemed to have failed under the load at the time).
