> I would constrain this even further to "Write to stdout only if information is useful as input to another program."

No. `foo --help' should never ever write to STDERR. It breaks piping the
message to `less', so I need to either juggle with file descriptors (bash) or
use special syntax sugar for this juggling (zsh).

Whatever lands in `less', it's hard to be considered "input to another
program", because it's mainly message for human that just happens to be
paged.
They all seem to have URLs with random-looking fragment identifiers at the end, which I guess makes HN think they're unique.
Thanks for the suggestions. Some of those might work. The only problem with k/v stores is the serialization/deserialization cost, as most of them can only store strings.

Is this the resolution we've all been waiting for regaring a longstanding issue many on HN have had with how nginx handles PUT/POST/DELETE on timeout?

*) Change: now if there are no available servers in an upstream, nginx
will not reset number of failures of all servers as it previously
did, but will wait for fail_timeout to expire.

It fragments the discussion.

Perhaps the dup checker might profitably ignore fragments, since it seems like Medium isn't the only site that perverts them.
But this is a /workaround/ for the base system being poorly maintained. Apple provide Ruby, Python, and a whole host of other languages and tools on the base system. There's little excuse for them not to keep it up to date and functional. The default "experience" is miserable.
> LibreSignal was abandoned according to their github, first of all.

Yes, because Moxie threatened in the discussion you linked?

> Secondly, the issue is that OWS doesn't want "others" using the servers that they own and maintain for Signal

The issue is that Moxie refuses to federate, or allow others the right to develop third party apps interfacing with his server (Which, btw, he can’t prohibit in the EU anyway).

> Afaik, he also encourages people who don't like the GCM build in Signal to swap it out with the rewritten open source one and build with that.

Yet he threatens anyone trying to distribute an alternative build with it stripped out.

How the fuck is that open source development, if you threaten anyone forking it, and don’t allow any PRs that could make it more open, AND refuse to allow federation? That’s not any better than just using Facebook Messenger.
The developer does not seem so concerned that the app was removed - it can be reinstated - but that the attempts to do so are being stonewalled while a significant amount of cash hangs in the balance.

Facebook should not be silent in the face of a $160,000 problem they created.

FWIW I agree. I live in the UK and don't think we have a particularly litigious culture but, and I mean no disrespect to facebook in saying this, you're on a hiding to nothing trying to deal with their support department. Nobody in there has any authority to make anything happen.

With $160k on the line (and, by the way, well done: with ~$80k monthly revenue you are living what many of us would consider to be the dream) you need to lawyer up. This isn't about taking facebook to court: it's about making your case to a group of people that can actually get something done for you (facebook's legal department) in a language that they understand.
This is probably off-topic, but are they using different colors for male and female escalator users? Does it matter? They already have different graphics, but for some reason felt the need to make it really clear that there are different gendered people here, riding escalators? Very strange.

Also, it doesn't seem to address the "total time for the ride", the minimization of which is of course the reason why people want to walk in escalators. That's the egoistical reason, to minimize overall throughput is perhaps somewhat less interesting to each individual.

That said, optimizing the system as a whole for throughput is a good goal so perhaps it's time to change escalator culture!
For bash:

$ help complete
complete: complete [-abcdefgjksuv] [-pr] [-DE] [-o option] [-A action] [-G globpat] [-W wordlist] [-F function] [-C command] [-X filterpat] [-P prefix] [-S suffix] [name ...]
Specify how arguments are to be completed by Readline.

For each NAME, specify how arguments are to be completed. If no options
are supplied, existing completion specifications are printed in a way that
allows them to be reused as input.

Options:
-p	print existing completion specifications in a reusable format
-r	remove a completion specification for each NAME, or, if no
NAMEs are supplied, all completion specifications
-D	apply the completions and actions as the default for commands
without any specific completion defined
-E	apply the completions and actions to "empty" commands --
completion attempted on a blank line

When completion is attempted, the actions are applied in the order the
uppercase-letter options are listed above. The -D option takes
precedence over -E.

Exit Status:
Returns success unless an invalid option is supplied or an error occurs.

There are a lot of canned completion approaches, usually tweakable in small ways, but for heavy lifting `complete -F foo bar` will call the function `foo` when you are asking for completion of a command where the first word is `bar`. Information on what words are already on the line, where the cursor is, etc is passed in in shell variables starting with COMP_. See the "Programmable Completion" section of the bash manpage for much more detail.

Note that it's settings for a specific shell process, not global across all instances of bash. "The right file in the right location" is only relevant 1) to set up your shells a particular way by default, and 2) if the function called references a file.

I'm not the only one who think Safari is a joke compared to the competition. While IE6 was much much worse than what Safari is today, I feel like history is repeating itself again. And ES6 support is irrelevant when the main goal is to make sure websites renders and behave correctly, which is more painful for Safari than the other browsers.

I still have flexbox issues on Safari https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=136041
Haha, most excellent.

One thing that I'm only now (and stupidly late) realising is that tech journalism almost never critiques new trends.

Sure there are some gut "this fucking sucks" but there is never a real effort to provide some critical thinking about the PR emanating from whichever source.

For example, soylent is the brain child of someone who has possibly crippling [OCD](http://robrhinehart.com/?p=1331) (Having been blighted by it for most of my teenage and childhood.) It looks like one of his coping mechanisms.

I'm sure its a great product, but I wouldn't want to emulate someone's OCD lifestyle. Yet we are asked to "emulate the habits of these successful XXX" without stopping to ask, are they happy?

Yet no one seems to ask the question: "is this good?" or "whats the logical outcome?" They just seem to be keen to breathlessly relay the PR line, possible with a pithy snap reaction.

I'm not suggesting a flame war for every press release, just a health helping of critical thinking, and some research.
ya, I found that total unrelated either. Maybe they just wanted it to look more colorful...
And how do you correct a fatal design flaw in a Phone without a recall? How do you do replacements without having a fixed design?

Samsung did the right thing here.. the fact that other companies don't isn't the problem. And, yeah, it probably was marketing driven as much as anything else, but I'd rather see this as a decision from a company than some of the deny, deny, deny tactics that other companies seem to take as a default strategy.
But I need my site to work in IE9 too.
Microsoft SQL Server and tooling (SQL Management Studio) is actually very nice to work with. Agreeably there's not much you can do with SQL Server that you can't do with Postgresql, but perhaps you're already a Microsoft shop, and then SQL Server simply fit in better with your deployment, backup and administration software.

In regards to documentation: Microsoft have very good documentation for developers. The SQL Server documentation is at least AS good as the Postgresql documentation, if not better.

It's really weird to approach Microsoft from the developer side, because they have absolutely wonderful products like Visual Studio, C#, Exchange, Active Directory, and SQL Server, but at the same time they have Windows. I feel that Windows, at least the desktop version, is somehow a second tier product, where the quality isn't on par with their other products.
I disagree. Samsung seemed to have proactively started replacing phones. Even before the media hyped it up. When they tried replacing, it still would overheat. Eventually management gave up mostly because as others have said they couldn't figure out why the phones were heating up in the first place.

I think a more important point is that you should design your website to still be functional even if Javascript is disabled.

Why? Because some users, such as those who use Tor, may have legitimate reasons to disable Javascript execution while browsing. Another reason is that Javascript-generated content can screw up your website's SEO when crawlers visit your site.

Using Javascript for your form validation is okay if your form will still work with Javascript disabled. Yes, the user will lose some functionality of not seeing pretty validations, but it's okay if they can still use your site. [1]

Where JS becomes a problem is when it's used in ways where disabling it completely breaks the page... Single page web apps: I'm looking at you.

-----

[1] One way to improve the experience of form input validations for Tor users could be to have both a JS runtime validation and server side validation of your form inputs, and then put the validation messages that both would generate in the same place so that they stay in sync.

SpaceX's target cost is talking about a long-term goal when the R&D costs are amortized by the number of launches. Ie. talking about the costs in 2040 (earliest) when they've had about 10 years of experience of regular Mars flights.

Pretty sure that their costs for sending the first few humans to Mars are on similar orders of magnitude to Govt plans.

What they outlined in their presentation was a long-term vision. We should be comparing to their "Red Dragon" efforts.

There is a chance this is political because of Thiel's support for a Trump presidency.

It may be ironically the case that Denton is receiving financial support and that what they are accusing Thiel of doing, they are actually in the process of doing. That would be right out of his playbook.

It's been suspected for ages that Gawker and Salon were a front for some kind of political organization in Washington which focuses its attention in Silicon Valley. A PR pre-emptive strike force if you like. It would explain something about their selectivity in their choice of targets. Mysterious money moving in mysterious ways. Take a look at Salon's wikipedia page, and then google for information on Gawker's profit and loss accounts. I can't believe they never got hit by the IRS, which potentially signifies the pull that political organization has.

Localized custom validation messages for the provided pattern should be added as part of HTML spec. Someone should follow up on that, because it'll probably be too much of a waste of time for me.

In the meantime, this works and gets around a bug in FF: http://stackoverflow.com/a/20189012

<input type="text" id="username" required placeholder="Enter Name"
oninvalid="this.setCustomValidity('Enter User Name Here')"
oninput="setCustomValidity('')" />

where setCustomValidity could provide any text, even localized text from some other source like a DB, potentially, since it's JS. Requires a modern browser, though.

> Sure, you might not need javascript. But maybe you should still use it.

Yes, but if you are writing for a general audience, make sure it's accessible: http://webaim.org/techniques/javascript/

Someone should put together a site that, given a set of browser restrictions the user provides, gives examples of each of these to show the most accessible and standards-compliant version of the code to use, minimizing external libraries required, with and without localization, because not everyone has the resources to provide localized content, unless localization could be provided by a built-in library in the browser or OS, which would be another great project.

Yes, there are sites that provide a matrix of supported browsers, but I don't think that would be as simple to use; developers like copy-and-paste examples, for better or worse, e.g. StackOverflow.

I'm not even sure what you are trying to argue at this point.

The republicans played to a sense of white aggrievement over the 40 years since the 70's while using the political power given to them in the name of that aggrievement to disempower the people that gave it to them.

I agree that he does speak to how middle and lower class whites still feel aggrieved but he does it in a way is still consistent with white privilege. You mentioned Arlie Hochshchild in another comment. Did you catch her comment about how Trump is playing the white knight role and that he shames everyone but white men? What about her "deep story" explanation? She's said that in two different interviews that I've heard her in. The one thing that she doesn't include, because its outside the scope of what she's doing, is the extent to which these people are complicit in the construction of their own circumstances. If you only look at this as an economic class struggle it's impossible to explain the reason that people supported parties that were explicitly opposed to their self interest. The class based explanation of the exploitation of poor people without including race is incomplete at best and disingenuous at worst.

It's "safety net" in that he's going to get some "safety net" for "you" and not "them". You have to be willingly ignoring that to not see it.

EDIT: Saying that the southern strategy was only for pro segregationists in the 60's and early 70's is so demonstrably false that it makes me think you are purposefully being misleading. It BECAME the Republican mainstream. It didn't go away. It won.
I've got a launch system in my backyard with a target cost per person to mars of $4, that's a factor of 50000 better than SpaceX. Where do I pick up my legion of internet fans?

SpaceX has done great stuff but they also have a history of overpromising and underdelivering. Falcon Heavy was supposedly going to launch last year.
