None of that really matters. I have no doubt he would have won if he didn't say so many stupid things and act like a disrespectful moron.

I think the election was stolen, but stolen by Trump alone and basically handed over to Biden.

If anything, Trump stole the election from his supporters.

They should be pissed he couldn't show restraint and just shut his mouth to take the victory so he could continue with their favored agenda.

Instead, he actively sabotaged himself. His ego prevented him from seeing that unfold. And nobody could reign him in at any point. That's crazy.

Doesn't matter how many good things you get done if you show everyone you are incapable of humility, incapable of listening to advisors and data and fabricating things on the regular.
Boeing is a publicly traded company based in the USA. That is different from being owned by the USA. Amtrak (which provided passenger rail service in the USA) is owned by the US Federal Government. Boeing on the other hand is owned by a multitude of individuals like you and me and probably a good number hedgefunds.

> The usual list monad is only one of infinitely many ways to turn the List functor into a monad.

So simple, and yet this is a point that I think is rarely made clear enough in "monad explainers." For instance, they almost always talk about "the Maybe monad" -- but this is conflating two things: the Maybe data type, and the Monad instance defined on that type. Propagating "Nothing" is not inherent to the Maybe data type, it's just a convenient behavior to have.

Talking about "the List monad" is even more confusing for a newcomer. When they hear "the List monad implements a kind of nondeterminism," it sounds like nondeterminism is a property inherent to lists themselves -- but of course it is nothing of the sort. All Monad instances are, in a sense, arbitrary.

What do you have against landlords? Every situation has an economic element to it. It shouldn't be assumed that every person who is a boss, landlord or business owner is assumed to be some sort of crook for having money. Maybe the landlord is upside down on his property and takes a loss every month. You just don't know.

Perhaps, but the Web is now effectively requires Chrome, or things which look enough like it.

It's a little odd, to see that a browser "must parse", but also "may either ignore the ping attribute altogether, or selectively ignore URIs".

It strikes me as a bit clumsy compared to the typical MUST/SHOULD/MAY wording.

This is a really well-written article about a common way to trampoline Rust methods into C embedded RTOS tasks, which often work in exactly this way. I've done just this in the service of getting ChibiOS and uC/OS II running Rust code.

I really don't care for the snide tone of the article. Bomb shelters weren't weird; they weren't irrational. Recall that WWII had involved mass area bombing of civilian targets; many Europeans and Brits were alive in the 50s due to their nations' bomb shelter programs (I don't know about Japan or the Soviets, so I can't say there).

A nuke isn't some magical death-and-destruction device: it's just a really powerful bomb, which releases some really nasty pollutants. It's a difference of degree, not of kind: other bombs are weaker and still releases less nasty pollutants.

Sure, no home bomb shelter could survive a direct hit; but home shelters weren't made to resist direct hits: they were made to resist blast waves from hits on nearby cities; they were made to resist nearby conventional hits.

What made them less useful investments was a factor of several things. Precision targeting made area bombing less likely. Improved air defenses made large-scale WWII-style bombing raids less likely. It might also be the case that larger bombs made the risk-reward ratio different.

While cleaning out my grandparents' home a few months ago I came across a government civil defense pamphlet my grandfathers' firm had republished. It was full of good, scientifically-accurate, well-founded advice. It wasn't alarmist; it was up-to-date for the time when it was published.

It certainly wasn't weird to be prepared for something which at the time was likely to happen.

I don't understand why Yahoo doesn't try charging for it. Monetizing it was tough, definitely, but it's been shown that actually CHARGING customers (as opposed to going with a straight advertising model can work).

If you're going to shut it down anyway, what's the harm in trying? Maybe have a "stay of execution" for a quarter - tell users you're going to charge $10/month for the service, and see how many users sign up. If you can break even, why not keep it?
"The diary also had her indicate emotions she was feeling from a list of 50 items. Her average score of fear was 0 percent, while for other emotions she showed normal functioning."

Far apart from the brain structure involved, what amazed me the most is the severability of fear from other emotions. For someone untrained in neuroscience and coming purely from an experiential point of view, it seems impossible that one emotion could be completely absent without having any effects on the functioning of others. For instance, even with an emotion like happiness, it seems like there's some component of the feeling that relates to the enjoyment of being free of fearful things. Perhaps the emotions don't actually function the same, but her perception of them is similar to unaffected patients?

If I'm doing accessibility testing for a bank my thoughts are probably less valuable. Unless it's horribly broken I'm tech savvy enough to usually get by. I don't expect all blind people to have 20 years of programming experience and the general technical aptitude that comes along with that.

> the implication is always they should get paid proportionally to the company's additional revenue due to their work

Being proportionally paid with the value you bring isn't even remotely comparable to being paid everything you make. In fact, proportionality of pay is quite common in plenty of industries, e.g., real estate, law, etc.
> Isn't WhatsApp still purportedly end-to-end encrypted? What data is "on the table" when it comes to sharing - just contact lists and phone numbers?

It is, and same is claimed in their privacy policy and ToS. According to the original article it will include, what is already being collected:

User phone numbers
Other people’s phone numbers stored in address books
Profile names
Profile pictures and
Status message including when a user was last online
Diagnostic data collected from app logs

Along with possibly:

Purchases
Financial information
Location
Contacts
User content
Identifiers
Usage data and
Diagnostics

A little more than contact lists and phone numbers.
I, as European, always find fascinating when US people says: "The only legitimate purpose of government is to protect rights"... I feel the purpose of government is to protect and nurture the community and give the citizen common services.

I'm a little more cautious about this and would suggest three caveats:

1. Building an API from day one can be premature. Typically when you start building something is the time when you know the least about the problem you're trying to solve and the issues you'll face solving it. That problem is subject to much more change early than late. If you build an API on day one may just be creating more work for yourself later on;

2. If you provide a public API, you are quite possibly exposing your data model and any assumptions that underpin it. This can make it much harder to change later as circumstances change. Think of it as making everything (including data members) public in class. It's abstraction; and

3. What value does an API provide you as the service provider?

Twitter is an easy example of this: it doesn't really matter where the Tweets (sorry nytimes) come from as Twitter owns the graph, the distribution and the Tweets.

Now consider a site like Stackoverflow. What if you could ask questions, search for answers, vote, view your summary information and so on completely via an API. What value would there be in the SO site? Not much at all and it's the ads on those pages that pay for the site (well that and $x million from USV).
A sufficiently-slow connection will make even a reasonable amount of data take a long time. I'm sure Flickr has users that upload large photos over satellite links...

There's also no reason why you need to time this person out. If you configure kernel and application for small (or auto-sizing) buffers and use an event-based structure for the application, you should be just fine.
Depends on what you want to get a CS degree for. If you want one, so you can get a job, i don't think thats that important(but it probably helps). But the valuable part of a degree is the fact that you'll be exposed to topics which you are unlikely to study on your own, for example graph theory, logic programming, compiler classes, discrete math. Learning how to hack php or ruby sites is easy and not that valuable, learning the general principals of computer science is. And its wicked fun!

One thing I'd personally like is an analytics type of view for my stats. i.e. graphs of different stats over time to show improvement. I don't know how much social stuff there is to be done, because steam already has a decent community view. I'd definitely like to talk in depth about it if you're looking to discuss things. My contact info is in my profile if you're interested.
I am super talkative today, but anyway:

The insight 2 about how low the expectation is in software stability is interesting because it implies a high expectation in the raw responsiveness of software. And thus why Google Chrome picks up so fast in China. When Firefox slows down, even if it didn't response in a few seconds, people will try to nuke their browser process because they think that the software is dead or malfunctioned.

problem with sony is that they fail so much with pricing things .. they cannot charge as much or more than apple products because frankly the design and the build quality doesn't match up. I still remember them trying to sell a netbook for around 1K$ ..

I saw some questions some days old and even answered well are still in top list(front page). Please add a feature of "Yes, I got the answer." in hacker news questions. if the asker get what he wanted to know, he would click on it and the question will no longer be available for up-votes from other members. This will allow other questions to eventually come on front page and get noticed(and hence get answered).
>> If one does it in 1% of the time of another, it’s probably a matter of talent.

The original article seems to base this on the flawed assumption talent and choice of tools are not related.

This article echoes a talk Bryan Cantrill gave two years ago:
https://youtu.be/S0mviKhVmBI

It's about how Joyent took the concept of a UNIX pipeline as a true powertool and built a distributed version atop an object filesystem with some little map/reduce syntactic sugar to replace Hadoop jobs with pipelines.

My understanding (from an undergraduate US law class) is that you actually own the column defined by your property lines up into the heavens (and down into the Earth). You implicitly grant an easement (a formalized privilege allowing someone else do something with your property) to aircraft and other things like that. I imagine that this easement doesn't extend to drones doing something they're not supposed to.
I think, in many peoples minds, extensibility == pain; either lots of code configuration (hello java, ejb), or xml (hello hadoop, java, spring, ejb), or tons of code (hello java, c++), etc. When nice languages don't make things painful, it sometimes feels like it's wrong, or not really enough work, or in some other way, insufficient. But people can mistake the rituals of programming for getting actual work accomplished.

> I tried out Lisp sometime around 2009 or so and immediately realized it was a toy language.

There are definitely toy languages in the Lisp family (after all, there's quite a lot of lisps), but it pretty ridiculous to call Lisp a toy language.

> Interesting for it's unique approach to structuring code, but ultimately designed for a certain kind of mathematical elegance over practical functionality.

Most that I've read on the history of Lisp seems to show more of a preference for pragmatism than theoretical elegance.

> It grew especially popular with ai researchers, because they were searching for beautiful answers to the messy problem of intelligence

It grew especially popular with AI researchers because it was designed specifically to address needs in AI research.

> And it grew fans here and there for certain low-performance applications because it was one of the first languages with productivity enhancing features like garbage collection.

Lisps breadth and depth of production use has been considerably more than "here and there" and "certain low-performance applications".

> Lisp may have been "mind blowing" before untyped scripting languages were a dime a dozen

Being an untyped scripting language isn't the thing that is generally considered "mind blowing" about lisp, its the flexibility that comes from the combination of its minimal syntax, the macro system, and its homoiconic nature making code and data isomorphic.
Agency, trust, and autonomy are great, but they're no replacement for rock solid health, vision, and dental benefits, plus a matching 401k. Now that's sexy.

I’ve actually been writing a post about just this concept. When I think simple, I think solving the problem in a way that adds value and doesn’t have unnecessary overhead. I think it’s important to highlight the differences between simple, complex, and complicated (like from the Zen of Python). The basic idea is that if possible you want a simple program, but most problems aren’t that’s simple. So the solution needs to be complex with lots of parts. Those parts can and should be simple though. Complicated means adding things that don’t any value. Maybe it’s using containers on a CRUD app that doesn’t need it because it looks good on a resume.
I personally hope it fails and they redesign since I don't want to be forced to drive around in a city with a bunch of these on the street - they are that ugly to me, viscerally ugly. And I waited for the better part of a year to watch yesterday's live stream, hoping they would get it right while worried they would miss the practical side of things after the odd choice on the model x doors which allow for no roof racks. meh. But the basic tech is phenomenal.

Because Rust has a vocal community and that noise far over represents its usage here on HN.

People aren’t searching for Rust much:

https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?q=%2Fm%2F0dsbpg6,%2...

Because it’s not a popular language, cobol and prolog are more popular: https://www.tiobe.com/tiobe-index/

And yet hardly a day goes by without a rust story on hn and for the past 5 years it’s scored most loved language on the annual stack overflow developer survey.

That said, Rust has an exit from cult status and a starting path toward mainstream in its sights. If Rust makes it into the kernel then that is the beginning of Rust.

> 1. Women still lag in almost everything that matters (engineering, entrepreneurship, science, math)

The assumption that engineering, entrepreneurship, science, math are everything that matters, is seriously problematic, and is likely at the core of the genuine gender inequality that gets the feminists upset.
If Microsoft implemented Cocoa on Windows and Apple implemented WinForms on Macs, would you really think it would work 100% identical on both platforms?

The problems are not web technologies but them being implemented inconsistently across browsers and platforms.

I agree though that the load of new features of HTML5 will increase this implementation diversity.

As you have agreed to in the comments, there are already a few competitors in this space and some of them have been there for a long time. I like your pricing model but I am wondering if that alone would be enough to win against the competition. The core idea is small enough that I can't imagine how different you can get. Have you thought of a customer acquisition strategy that would give you an unfair advantage?
"rivers" and weird spacing from the OP's first link are a bit distracting, yeah, but here's my personal easy-to-believe reason for non-justified text:

Ragged edges make it easier to detect different lines of text, because you can see the lengths easily.

This makes it harder to lose your place, and easier to slide your eyes back to the left edge to continue reading. Every subtle clue to your location is helpful for quicker reading, and justified text pretty much destroys it. And personally, quicker often == easier, as if you can read it quicker, it somewhat implies a lower "cost" to the mechanics of reading that text.
One approach to countering sock-puppetry as a general problem is with increased transparency. Personally, I think lobste.rs' notion of a user tree is a step in the right direction: https://lobste.rs/u
This metaphor has worked well for me too, to show people that they already expect there to be limits on what the government can do to keep people safe--even though they might have not have realized it.

So it's good as a throwaway metaphor for illustrating that concept, but it's not great for arguing against surveillance, because Internet traffic is not the same thing as getting dressed every morning. Most people get a lot less worked up about email and web surfing than being naked.
