It's not exactly a catchall; it's per user, and you can also set up rules to route to different folders based on receiving address. If there are 2 users 'joe' and 'bob' on the domain 'foo.com', joe can use any '* @joe.foo.com' address and bob can use any '* @bob.foo.com' address. Fastmail pricing is per user.

And this is exactly why I read the comments before I read the articles themselves.
It's a sample size of __three__. I have no idea why people are actually discussing this as if there's actual evidence here. I wouldn't be surprised if there was discrimination in that area, and if there is it is obviously a problem to be solved. However, let's not jump to conclusions based on such little evidence.
I believe "tricking" is the correct term to use.
Unless we made some big advances I'm not aware of, as far as I know we really don't know much about how the brain works. I doubt anyone can answer your question.
I think in order to understand this properly you have to build and try out Arcan for yourself. It took me a little while to understand the LuaJIT application structure but without that in mind this seems like- "a terminal with graphics attached" which it most certainly is not. This is more of a solution to the vast amount of protocols used to shovel data to the user in the UI message pump in a fairly static way. Shmif allows sharing this data between apps without all the translation, stubs, and overhead that normally comes with the territory: https://github.com/letoram/arcan/wiki/Shmif
"The reason for this is that rather than deal with the flaky "unsubscribe" you can just disable emails from that sender."

It would be convenient to be able to email your own forwarding email with the unsub email in the subject and a PIN in the body to turn off an of the forwarding.

You almost never have USB link that directly connects two devices (host to function in USB parlance) except in case of PTP ("direct printing"). Any normal tree of USB links ("bus") contains some hubs in it, which have to understand your alternative protocol. And mayor reason why everybody uses USB is that there is large pool of silicon implementations of almost anything and well tested soft-IP so you don't have to spend large amounts of money on developing hardware dedicated to connecting two devices together, this essentially precludes anyone sane from coming up with some USB-like-but-not-quite-USB interface with same connectors. Actually, completely opposite thing happens now: many companies use completely standard high-speed interfaces (USB, PCIe...) on proprietary connectors (original XBox's controllers and memory cards, IBM/Lenovo's UltraPort/Bay, expansion ports of various mobile devices...) or with slightly stricter tolerances (to make it slightly cheaper, e.g. Intel's Direct Media Interface, which is essentially PCIe with less noise imunity).
It's OK, could be better, used to be horrendous (do a search of "Streamyx Sucks" and you will get the idea).
I remembered another one, the teleporting turtle algorithm. http://www.penzba.co.uk/Writings/TheTeleportingTurtle.html It's a neat way to determine if there are loops in a linked list (among many other uses).

We start with the turtle and rabbit pointing to the head, and then on each clock tick we advance the rabbit by one step. After a while, assuming we've neither found the end of the list nor caught the turtle, we teleport the turtle to the rabbit's position, double the length of time we're willing to wait, then go again.
That could be because Skyfire is, frankly, crap.
Opera Mini browses the web. It's a browser.
Seems like the post article just wants to belabor a point Bill Gates did not actually make.

The points he did make, actually agree with the article's sources, but he does not reach the same overall conclusion. He did explicitly say that seniority matters and that the difference peters out mostly after ~5 years (he put a graph on the screen with sources). He mentioned other metrics should be applied as well, but did not specify exactly what the metrics should be (whereas this article concentrates on test scores as if he presented that as the only valid metric).

Gates minor conclusion is the reasonable one... seniority does matter, but not as much after a certain period of time, therefore it cannot be used as the only method of assessment. Furthermore, seniority is a rather indirect measure of competence. I don't see the opposing view as being arguable with a clear conscience, frankly.

And, in fact, if you listen to the speech, he does not state budgets as a priority -- yes, an obstacle to be overcome, but not the focus. The focus is in better outcomes.

I think it would be a lot easier if idle elevators have idle fire every time someone presses a button.

That way the elevator can evaluate the new situation. Now you have to look up an elevator in the button event, and the API does not specify many properties, only events.

While YouTube may suspend anyone they like without warning or for any or no reason, their own about page is somewhat strange [0]:

I gave a book of her poetry (Penelopiad) to a friend of mine, a talented poet herself. She said it made her angry: this was what she'd been aiming for her whole life, and Atwood made it look easy.

I'm glad that Handmaid's Tale has brought her to a wider audience. It would be easy for her to be shunted into "genre fiction" for that book, or into "chick lit" for most of her other novels. But she's one of the most gifted prose stylists I've ever read. Her nonfiction book Payback, about debt, is actually quite insightful as well -- it came out at the heart of the financial crisis, but was developed before it began and is a very astute criticism of the entire financial system.
For context: When I was growing up and going to school (in Canada in the 80s), all of her work was generally classified as Canadian Literature, aka canlit. She was (and still is) considered one of our biggest home grown literary giants.

I don't think anyone here even thought of her work as science fiction back then.
It obviously is. The front is all the same angle.
Whoops - I think you are suggesting deploying GitLab the application to your existing Kubernetes cluster. The issue, and highlight from the blog post, were about deploying your applications (in GitLab projects) to a Kubernetes cluster.
In Polish months are named after plants that bloom then and weather conditions. Quite poetic to say "I will meet you on the 5th day in the month of linden trees" :)

The funny thing is that other Slavic countries use similar names but some are moved 1 month back or forth because flowers bloom earlier/later there :)

And days of the week are simply numered starting with sunday = "niedziela" (not working day), "poniedziałek" (after not working day), "wtorek" (secondary day), "środa" (middle day), "czwartek" (fourth day), "piątek" (fifth day) and "sobota" (sabbath).

I never remember the names of the roman months and have to count them starting from january.

the other video standards (Europe used PAL) aren't much different in principle than NTSC, just some different timing and encoding parameters, the same D to A techniques work. PAL is higher bandwidth (and higher quality) than NTSC and Woz's timings were on the edge for NTSC so PAL versions didn't do color till a little later.

Felix Rosenquest (IndyCar driver) was talking about sim racing and he said that it depends on the driver. Some drivers feel the car by their body/ass and they will struggle for a while in a sim because there is no feedback from G-forces and the sort.

Other drivers which mostly take their information visually, they tend to do much better and have less issue adapting.

Obviously the feel is not the same, but many drivers use it for training and find it quite enjoyable and useful. To dismiss it because you don't smell fuel and tyres or get g-loads in the corners is too simplistic.
I started building a tool that simplifies video scripting [1] and the first version worked from JSON. Although this was aimed at a technical audience, people really struggled with it. it's difficult to add comments, and ended up being very error prone. My second choice was YAML, but this ended up even more error prone due to whitespace issues.

My lesson is that JSON and YAML are great for machine-consumption when people just need to do something once and leave it (eg config files), but far from ideal for stuff people need to edit over and over (such as script files).

I converted the input to markdown (with some small extensions) and it made a huge difference. it's less fiddly, much easier for humans to edit, and the parser can point out errors much better. for some nice examples check out https://github.com/videopuppet/examples/

In conclusion, YAML and JSON are great for machine-to-machine communication or human-to-machine for things that do not change often and aren't complex. for human-to-machine that is more frequent, we should be kinder to our users.

I don't want to diss an effort made with good intentions. though this is like using duct tape on fatally flawed design - it doesn't solve the problem. We're dealing with an inherently hostile company which aggressively uses dark pattern, ignoring privacy and security best practices. Not only are they ignoring these things they actively bypass the security control on the host-system where it is installed - this is literally what malware does. You don't put duct tape on malware so it works better for you!

If they would be a Chinese company they'd be banned and probably even sanctioned. Stop using this shit and stop justifying its use just because your employer makes you use it. Grow some balls (or eggs) and speak up naming it for what this is (malware) - so that we can all have nice things and not be forced to engage in endlessly justifying ourselves because "team or company XYZ is using it too and it works great for them ..."
They sure figured out which local bat store was the cause too.

Regardless of how well known those relationships are in certain circles, Wired should still disclose them when publishing a story, given that they have a much wider target audience.
In my career I've never encountered an IT lab so your product isn't clear as to what it does/replaces. I suspect I'm not your target audience, but I feel that under all buzzwords there are real problems shared across businesses. Try to find and use those problems as a starting point rather than language which might limit you to established ways of thinking.
What bugs me is that whatever solution you'd want to use requires two SSL certificates and with that, at least two distinct IP addresses.

Especially the latter is concerning considering we are running out of addresses.
I disagree, this is more milliondollarhomepage than anything else. Sure, they could make money like the way Steam do (http://store.steampowered.com) but not with this specific model. There is legs in the bundle model, but I don't think it requires any investment... it's a 0 capital start up, they've made their name so when they approach other indie developers they can work based on their name alone.

I would however seriously hope they don't do what you're suggesting (weekly) the idea has very limited usage, there are a finite number of games out there and a finite amount of interest, this works based on the publicity ("Viral marketing") and not just the idea. Take a look at appsumo for an idea, their bundles are crap now (compared to what I as an "early adopter" got accustomed to) and most lost interest.

This is not an idea to milk.
I'm not a fan of Wired, but Salon (and certainly Greenwald) have been doing a very similar kind of reporting.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I do not believe that the FCC would need congressional approval to do anything proposed in the parent article or what I've mentioned. They are a regulatory commission that designs and implements regulation.

The concept of following still (at least to me) implies seeing all the content said person is posting. Twitter liberally uses the word "follow" but then doesn't deliver.

They are not being transparent about your experience being manipulated for the purposes of generating engagement either. Most non-technical people don't immediately associate "contains ads" with "will use all kinds of nasty tricks to make you spend more time looking at said ads".

Are they? The amounts of arguments and toxicity on that despicable website (enough to prompt highly-upvoted posts about quitting the website every so often) suggests they aren't?

They profit from the fact that it's defective, so of course to them it is not a defect, just like a printer manufacturer will tell you that ink cartridge DRM is not a defect, or some smart juice press manufacturer will tell you that its online-only requirement and juice pack DRM is also not a defect.

Heck ya! : D I could work on embedded and datacenter gear for free if I didn't have bills and a spinning circular vinyl noise-makers addiction.

Yeah, I've been pining for highly-integrated, hyperscale datacenter metal. Only Fortune 50 corporations and partakers of OEMs/ODMs like Quanta QCT / Dell DCS deliver somewhat okay customized gear, but not a completely-integrated, managed fleet. I remember eGenera BladeFrame, but it's still nothing like a hyperscale, intermodal-container LEGO datacenter solution.

It's a good example of how curiosity is sated not by truth, but by anything purporting as such.

The image of dinosaurs that became canonically entrenched in popular culture is almost certainly completely wrong, but the truth is of little consequence, exactly because it is not used for anything that might depend on it's veracity.

It really does not matter whether it be accurate or completely false, for this purpose.
Thanks for the kind words. Paypal - a good idea! I can probably add it, but I'll have to take a look. The whole subscription model is tied to Stripe currently, so it will take some refactoring.
Let's put it this way. I've professionally used 3D software since SGI/Amiga days, day in day out. I used them all, pretty much. The great UI/UX unification that happened around early 2000s was great - that's the period when most of the apps standardized around (Q)WERT keys for example, etc.. I tried getting into Blender numerous times, but muscle memory just couldn't give into the weird UI. So I thought, because even before this great unification, I used all those different tools without issue. There was something about Blender that just wasn't compatible with my brain.. which worked for eons in all of those apps, day in day out.

Long story short, I've been professionally out of VFX/Animation for two or so years now, taking a break doing something else.. and recently I had to do a small type of work in 3D. Naturally, I lost access to most of my paid licenses during the period so I said, fuck it, let's try Blender again (2.8something). I kid you not, I managed to move my way around it on my own, with a bit of help of reading docs, and finished the actual work and be satisfied with it. I still did a little bit of work in Houdini, since I knew the tool better, but 90% of it was in Blender and it was great (Cycles is great too! We'll see about Eevee).

So, something happened, probably recently, where Blender morphed (UI-wise) into this love child of Cinema4D meets Modo kind of thing and one can get around it with no to little help, if you have prior experience with similar tools. I also picked those industry-standard navigation key/mouse bindings and everything's almost there where you expect them to be.
A note from the front line. I actually use 8601 dates in a date-heavy consumer product ( https://clubman.app ) and it’s hands down the feature I most consistently get user feedback on.

It’s always “Why are the dates all American format? Can you change them to English?” And then I try to patiently explain that they’re actually international format.

People seem to have internalised that any date format they find slightly unfamiliar is “the bad American one”

I’m in the process of cutting everything I can over to “24th Jan 2020” style.
Hamlet is a good example of the non-primacy of books. Hamlet was meant to be performed, not read silently. It's far better to have access to a recording or taped performance to study it than the text alone. And yes, a plot summary or additional commentaries could be a big help as well. In our current information golden age I can pull up a dozen full performances on YouTube including a 360 degree VR experience where you can stand on stage with the actors. In 1990 such a thing would have been pure science fiction and you would have never encountered a person to even discuss the topic of serious Shakespearian study.
I mostly use mpv that has this behavior and it can be annoying how often an accidental mouse movement causes the controls to appear. I suspect extremely few people, if any, will have trouble finding the controls. When it comes to video in particular, always-visible controls seem much more distracting than useful.
Interestingly enough, it could be that said VUEditor embeds Excel. These days it seems forgotten trick, but all of MS Office on Windows provides components that allow you to embed features inside your own programs
We all have our sore spots, and one can't always stop feeling something simply by deciding one shouldn't. So that expectation might be too high. One can, though, be aware of them and stop oneself from responding reflexively when they come up. (Or, more easily, edit the defensiveness out of one's comments after writing them.)

The quantity and range of posts to HN—plus the fact that there's one big community and not a bunch of little siloed ones—guarantee that whatever buttons you have will eventually get pushed here, just like any exposed spot will eventually get wet in a rainstorm. This isn't personal; it's a statistical process. But we're not hard-wired to experience statistical processes, so unless one is careful, it feels like one is dealing with a person—usually an annoying adversary with demonic powers to drive one crazy. I think this is why people often post comments personifying "HN". We each have a different imaginary arch-enemy in our heads.

I mention this in the hope that it might be helpful to anyone else who recognizes the pattern. In our case, exposure to it is an occupational hazard, so we've had little choice but to learn about it.
I guess I'm confused then. If I wanted a complicated standard but one with broad consensus and lots of library support behind it, why wouldn't I just use XML-RPC? Other than not being XML, what does JSON API offer? Because at first glance, it looks just about as verbose and unfriendly as XML-RPC to me.
It would be cool if the chart would link to a random sample comment for each sentiment, to see how accurate it is.
Except the book is free, probably a good resource for people who need help, and it's in the footer, not tied any particular blog post.
The conclusion should be that unless you're paying for an SLA, you aren't going to get an SLA.
