Obligatory comment on the ethnic cleansing of the Hindus from the valley. Over 700k Hindus left the valley in 1990 as a result of the Islamic insurgency. These Hindus were original inhabitants of the valley, of the same stock as the Muslims. They were not outsiders. Even the most hardliner Kashmiri Separatist will not consider them outsiders. Yet they were forced to leave in violent circumstances.

Hence when the reporter writes that the political culture is tolerant, I am immediately reminded of not making sweeping generalizations based on one visit to the valley and interviewing the people there.

PS: I was one of the people who had to leave in 1990.

Thank you for your explanation. It seems like for any renaissance man programmer, either of these areas are ripe for indivuality and invention in terms of new experiences in the form of apps for these vr and ar devices. Thoughts?

And to maybe extend the discussion abit, what about devices that plug right into the centers of consciousness. Is that just more invasive, arguably better AR or is it VR? What do better hearing aids that sample at 10 ghz and connect directly to the nerves instead of hair cells. What are they considered? What about when I pipe my FLAC uncompressed music through the hearing implant -- VR or AR? It seems like the future is a combination of the two in far more complex ratios than just one or the other or split screen. VR probably has limits of perceptiveness if it fails to take model of logical non chaotic reality. It therefore can eventually become an abstraction of an existing event or well..present stimulus. Anyhow, I think the ideas are all really profundo. Looking forward to replies.

I thought when reading about that "Drop the mic" joke, that gmail will temporarily drop recording from the users microphone, and will not send the audio to google, so they won't be able to listen what is spoken in that room.
I thought that's a neat feature, unfortunately only temporary.

Romanian government used that tactic for some years on all old cable phones, until google brought that feature to the masses with the new smartphone and laptop technology.

You're arguing for the sake of it- it was just a bad example. If $red was $leadcolor or something similar, you can define it at the top, comment it to explain what it is, then change it across the whole site in 10 seconds (including the borders which are defined as variables 5% darker and lighter) when the client says "I like it, but the red needs to 'pop' more, do you know what I mean?"
This is a really interesting model and I hope it catches on with many more similar initiatives.

Both ads and search engines benefit greatly from greater user profiling. The path I see for a privacy-sane future is a system where users get to have a personal program (like the Brave Browser) that manages their information and acts like a privacy firewall for third party applications.

I look forward to the day when I can search for something without Google and the likes trying to profile me to give me better results but simply ask in a anonymized and privacy conscious way a contextualized search query from my personal private information broker program.

The Brave ad system looks like a first step in the right direction where users get to control their information.

Non-linear utility of money.

Going from $1bn to $50m (a loss of 95%) in wealth might be psychologically damaging but you're still independently wealthy. You'd lose the jet (if you chose to buy one), but you'd keep the house, the car, the neighbourhood, etc.

Going from $1m to $50k (a loss of 95%) is absolutely enormous. You've lost the house and the retirement fund and you're starting from scratch with a deposit.

The realistic case for most labourers is worse than that. How much risk is involved in moving to a new town for a job? Training in a certain discipline? Deciding to have children or not? All of those are far more impactful on the middle class than on the wealthy.
In fact, also the Nationalist side had quite a number of international volunteers, to fight communism and its evils.

Not quite as many as in the stalinist-run International Brigades, but certainly over 10 000 volunteers. And not just from the fascist-run Germany or Italy, but a large number of countries. General Franco even turned down legions from Greece and exiled White Russians.

The British Communist party had found George Orwell "politically unreliable", and as we later saw, for a good reason. Likewise, Franco must have considered e.g. the Russian volunteers "politically unreliable", and probably that was also for a good reason - it would be surprising if such volunteer forces were not infiltrated by the NKVD and whoever.

Thank you. It should have been noted that these are labeled scientific drawings with phenomenological ids for any spots or effects. Not just silly sketches. Its probably an easier task to OCR the sketches than to even get the guy to use new software or use images of the sun and detect spots. Kind of interesting, are there any sunspot softwares that use actual photographic data from digital scopes? Ie. Is what this guy is doing these days only a spiritual release?

Ask HN: How critical was “time-to-market”?
I am seeking (only) first-hand experiences where time-to-market determined success vs. failure of a startup.

For a story to be relevant, the anecdote must be first-hand, and time-to-market must be the factor that predominantly influenced the outcome.
I have a lower than average Uber rating for this exact reason. I've never been anything but polite. If anything, a little quiet, and untalkative if I'm tired. You're right - these systems generally select for the wrong things.
I appreciate much of your sentiment, we've used some flexischooling when we've been able: but your emphasis leans towards children being there to fulfill you rather than the reverse (or probably more correctly a balance of both).

There is a spectrum of characters in children, some don't respond well to homeschooling (or other non-school based education). Moreover, some parents don't have the knowledge, imagination or general wherewithal to be directly responsible for aspects of their child's education.

Children are also for society as a whole, as much as continuation of the species is considered a moral and necessary good! Even if you can't see them all the time there is still good reason to be involved in their being raised, educated, integrated in to the future of our species ... we could perhaps plan it all a bit better though.

Affordable housing is a misnomer. Definitionally: afford: 'To have the financial means for'.

Affordable housing in London, UK.

Does it cost 3.5x the minimum/living wage, affordable to a single person? ;-)
Does it cost 6x the minimum/living wage, affordable to a couple? Not there yet.

Instead it costs some percentage of market rate.

Which generally ends up being 20x min wage or similar. Yes - as a person you'd need to become three, four, five times more useful before you can get this starter home.

As far as I can tell it's just trolling. It genuinely feels like those with wealth laughing at the lower classes, there's no other explanation for such a ridiculous use of language.

A Bentley does not become 'affordable' if I offer it to you for 50% off.

Even minimum wage would be a high bar to set because it doesn't feel affordable to everyone. But at the moment we're saying 'the top 10% can afford it so that's fine'.

IMCONVERSION REVIEW THE CONVERSION TOOLKIT
I don't think it is realistic to try and bring regular cops up to that standard of discipline

Why is that? I can understand if you think there's a practical problem with doing so (but would still lament that), but I think that ideally "regular cops" should absolutely be held up to that same standard. I mean, look... these people are literally given life-and-death responsibility over the general populace. They should be held to a ridiculously high standard.

Two things:

1. Police purposely buy and insist on camera models that have very limited vision, range and abilities because they want it to be as bad or worse than a cop's limited observation ability

2. Police have learned a new trick - they do not legally have to release the camera footage at all - it is essentially for their own purposes only - so if it helps them, they release it - if it works against them, they don't release it and nothing you can do about it

If we want to change this, the same lawmakers that give police millions of tax dollars for cameras needs to set higher standards, better cameras and full release of videos to all involved parties in a very timely manner or face criminal penalties of their own.

I'd say police aren't civilians because they're not acting in their own right; they're a specific designated extension of the state.

It probably depends on your state and your police force though. Gendarmes are military trained IIRC, also in Italy there are something like 7 different types of police.

Show HN: ExDOS 64-bit version source code release
Hi! I'm just posting to announce the release of the source code of the 64-bit version of my hobby OS, ExDOS. My site is here: http://exdos.co.nf/ and my source code is on GitHub: https://github.com/omarrx024/exdos64
It's licensed under GNU GPL v3 and has many improvements over it's old 32-bit version. This one has a truly functional ACPI driver on real hardware, a window-based GUI, a real disk driver independent of BIOS, and some other things.
Just like with mobile apps, battery info can help websites decide whether they should run a complex operation now. It also helps detect regressions if a commit happens to suck power faster. Unfortunately, it's more bits available to deanonymize users across websites.

Data channels are useful for synchronizing your phone and your laptop. All native platforms support this. Most websites do it with a roundtrip to the server. So it would be mysterious to the user why a permission is prompted for something that should just work. Obviously it's bad for privacy though.

So painting it as having no legitimate uses is a bit one-sided. There is no easy fix.
Performance for Sass has not been an issue since libsass. Not once have I been able to switch to the browser faster than my Sass has compiled. Most of the time I even miss the browser-sync reload.
That only applies if you serve from a public CDN, which there are reasons to not want to do.

Including jQuery in browsers is kind of a ridiculous idea...

Hardly a joke. The 1MDB saga has been broiling Malaysia for the past year.
Can someone tell me why they went from C to Go despite the huge difference in compilation time?
Except it's not lying. If the unit of work is good, then watching the developer go backwards and forwards and making mistakes that stop the software from even compiling isn't even helpful - in fact, you can sometimes get multiple of these errors stack up in a row. Trying to bisect, even with bisect skip, is painful in these cases, and it doesn't even help with code reading.

The general rules of Linus Torvalds are the only real sane ones in this situation, at least IMO:

1. For a clean commit, make sure you rebase only on your private history. If the branch is public and in any way used by anyone else, then unfortunately it's not something that can be considered "private" any more (at least not unless you give strict warnings that no serious work should be done on the code in the branch until it is finalized).

2. Once your code is committed into a public branch or into the master branch, then you can't change it. No rebasing on this code!

3. Do NOT rebase other people's code, even if it is very messy. If you pull in messy code, then complain about their messy code or try to avoid depending on it. Which basically means that developers that collaborate need to practice pushing and merging clean code.
