A joke about the internet being promiscuous means that the person cannot move forward with society? He even did say that being promiscuous was a good thing for the internet. And this whole thing seems to be completely reasonable to you?
Whats wrong with a walk up? Stairs certainly aren't unique to NYC. Also what is wrong with old? . Pre-war buildings are actually more desirable as pre-war buildings spared little expenses with both construction and materials. In a pre-war building you will have plaster walls and poured-concrete floors which means much less noise or hearing your neighbor. This is opposed to post war in which you will have sheetrock walls. Pre-war buildings will also get you character like high ceilings, stamped tin ceilings, plate rails, tiled hallways, wood reliefs. Buying an AC unit isn't a big deal, you buy it and have it for 10 years.

Its completely possible to live in a one bedroom that is not a dump for less than $4k a month. There is no absolute minimum as you state. Lastly, "old" does not necessarily imply bad or dumpy. You are correct if you want to live in a brand new one bedroom with all "mod cons" - heated floors, stainless steel appliances, central AC, an Amazon locker etc., it is going to cost you significantly more. But you can also get that experience as you imply just about everywhere else in the world. These places also tend to have less in the way of character. Some people don't want that.
How to Boost Up Business Conversation with Business SSL Certificates
I tend to have a visceral reaction when indie devs proclaim that paid software is "over". (Which is not what David Smith is doing, but what a lot of commentary in this genre tends to look like.) It's not that ads are inherently bad — podcast sponsorships, The Deck, and affiliate links tend to be decent and respectful — but what kind of software future can we look forward to if the only way to make money is to sell our UI real estate to the highest bidder? There are many ethical lines that are all to easy to cross in the pursuit of profit. This is the same path that has turned mobile games into exploitative, IAP-driven casinos — and the web into a murky bog of autoplaying videos and 10-second load times.

Here's my opinion: pay-once software will never disappear. Not now, not on an infinite timescale. For things like Twitter clients or text editors, sure — it'll be very difficult to sell your wares at a premium when there's so much free competition. But certain pieces of software are just too unique to be cloned. Nobody minds paying money for Model 15[1] because it's the only one of its kind. Maybe instead of spending years and years working on a single productivity app, we should focus on building stuff like that.

Again, we're not talking about something that happened by accident, or about sexual interests which are somewhat abstruse but entirely lawful to pursue.

Perhaps you'll elucidate the connection.

They seem to have the same problem Jolla has – a phone OS without devices. Every once in a while a smaller hardware manufacturer (BQ, PuzzlePhone, FairPhone, Turing Phone, etc) makes some promises or actual releases a model with some support, but those companies are struggling themselves for any real market share – or mind-share. I guess the margins are too low to grow fast enough and get leverage against the big manufacturers and the default Android choice.

I really hope one of these more open-source friendly companies gets a foothold in the phone space, even if it happens by courting markets in countries like Russia and China who are politically less than thrilled about handing over too much information to American companies like Google and Apple.

This does not seem like the exactly correct diagnosis.

ext4 doesn't care if there's collisions in the dir_index hash - they're entirely expected. The dir_index hashes are just used to look up in a tree, the lowest level of which points you to the directory block that contains all the directory entries for names with hashes in a given range.

However, those hashes do get used for the directory position used by telldir() / seekdir() - and those are only 32 bits on 32 bit architectures. So I suspect that something involving those calls is generating the ENOSPC.

Also in the UK the dominant sect of Christianity is Church of England, which in the UK is very casual compared to the Catholic church.

They're basically different solutions to the same problem of letting two people listen to the same source via Bluetooth.

Douglas Crockford is a grumpy old man who has a history of making politically incorrect jokes. There are a handful of inclusivity activists who campaign against him because of that.

The main Nodevember organiser recently dropped Douglas Crockford as a speaker. No one knows why because they haven't properly explained themselves. But presumably it's because they're sympathetic to (or scared of) the inclusivity activists.

This is part of a wider battle between inclusivity activists and their critics, hence the controversy.
This just confirms the old principle that anything taken to the extreme turns into its opposite.

If you fight for inclusivity, prepare to exclude people.

If you strive to make everyone comfortable, prepare to face some very uncomfortable situations.
Also in the UK the dominant sect of Christianity is Church of England, which in the UK is very casual compared to the Catholic church.

Agreed. I was baptised in a CofE church etc.

However, there are probably lots of people in the UK who have a vague connection to the CofE without calling themselves Christian. I was mostly interested in the number of practicing Christians in tech. My guess is those people keep their faith pretty quiet.

Or they dine out somewhere else and appear in someone else's anecdotes. Many restaurants attract or repel specific age ranges, often as a deliberate marketing policy: if a restaurant is full of young people it is, usually, a restaurant for young people, for example because it plays trendy dance music fairly loud or because it's close to a university campus.

Well, if the auditor wants to play willy-measuring tactics: I've been using Unix since 1982 (Bell Labs Version 7, since you asked), and I rather suspect that I've more experience than he has.

UNIX and derived/lookalike systems like Linux have _always_ stored passwords one-way encrypted. I have precisely no idea how he expects the sysadmin to provide a list of plaintext passwords, short of replacing the passwd utility with a hacked one that stores the pre-crypt version somewhere for retrieval, or asking staff to email their plaintext passwords to the poor sap he's badgering.

Either way, a massive security breach. The whole point of one-way encryption is that there is no persistent trace left of the original plaintext password. This guy's way of auditing security recalls the Spanish Inquisition's way of auditing witchcraft. Damned if you do; damned if you don't.

His company's far better off using a payments provider with a clue - and a competent auditor.
Lets assume that on the WhatsApp-Team there is a least one father or mother.

Lets further deduce that s/he implemented on his own time the following filter in Pseudo-Code:

Select(p1.age < 18 | p2.age < 18 ) =>
Select(p1.age > 16 & p2.age > 16 ) =>
Filter(FamilyGraph.Related(p1, 1, p2) =>
NNFilter(Contains(conversation.content,sexual)) =>
CreateReport(vicitim= NNFilter(p1.conversation.history, traumatized) | NNFilter(p2.conversation.history, traumatized), suspects = SUB(conversation.person, victim))

Ask HN: Should I force myself to touch type?
Most of my daily activity revolves around coding, whether for work or for personal projects.

Thing is, I have never received a formal programming education and my typing style is very "improvised" - whatever my hands got used to while growing up using a PC - I only use my index finger on the right hand, and three fingers on the left hand.

Work gets done comfortable fast, but I wonder whether I should try and force myself to learn how to touch type properly. I tried giving it a shot for a while and if I choose to commit to it I can see myself having to go through lots of frustration due to slowness and clunkyness as my hands re-learn how to type.

Has anyone gone through a similar process?

PS recipe easily for accessible websites:
- avoid JS to modify change the behaviour of element (see last point);
- no JS for generating URL (see last point)
- no IMG
- ALT on IMG / use of captions
- avoid significant information in IMG
- if the sites renders on lynx it works on a braille terminal
- avoid async
- avoid table based presentation BUt use table for presenting table
- avoid CSS contorsion (like presenting tables without using table)
- fire designers, UX specialists
- if JS is needed, jquery is the only js framework that took a great care in being accessible (non-obstrusive)

Basically, anyone reasonably competent in HTML should be doing an accessible website by default.

If your site is not, your devs are just craps.

"<escape> colon w q <return>" is too many 'actions' for me personally (and anything that needs me to reach to escape is really asking for it), and I sometimes even mess that combination up (I used vim before using Komet). I learned about :x recently which is only just slightly better, but not in my muscle memory yet. Then one may need to decide when to use q! or cq to discard..

I also prefer using a native editor and am more productive with spell checking and auto correction, surprisingly.

edit: I'm also not a user that uses the keyboard all the time. After using Komet, I am surprised how often I actually used the mouse to hit commit instead.

Ask HN: Recommendations for a startup bank account (UK)
I have a new venture starting trading at the beginning of Q4, and I'm going through the financials right now. I need a bank account.

Background: b2b products and services, LLP, two partners, initially no staff or regular payroll requirements, mostly electronic deposits for money in (i.e. few or no paper cheques), electronic payments for money out, no loan or startup capital requirements, public liability insurance offering optional.

Pretty simple stuff to get going. Beyond the initial interview stage, I can't see a need to limit my shortlist to branches that have a local branch nearby, either. This makes the decision easier, and in some respects much harder.

I've had previous experience of Co-operative Bank (not great), NatWest (OK) and Lloyds (expensive), all of which are traditional banks with a history. I'm also interested in newer banks with a different/fresher approach to banking, if such a thing has been done.

I'd be interested in your experience of UK banks at this company stage/scale, and whether you'd recommend them.

Thanks in advance for feedback.

That's really not important though is it. If you're being prosecuted (at least in the UK) for such crimes then the age of the children and the level of the pornography is assessed and taken in to account in your sentencing. If the only image you'd acquired was a nip-slip of a teenager -- or you had a selfie with a same-age partner -- then the sentence would be entirely different to having thousands of images of pre-teen rape. Whilst USA law is often ridiculous it doesn't seem to be that lame that such differentiations aren't being made.
