Don't be so sure. I've run across counterfeit books on Amazon before. The quality of them was vastly inferior (covers printed on inkjets and laminated, basically), and of course no money is actually going to the author. I'd much sooner buy a real softcover book than a fake hardcover book.

Astronaut translated to Chinese is 太空人 which is spelled by the romanisation system in mainland China as tai-kong-ren or taikongren. Not the extra 'g'.

A quick search of matches in actual translated texts returns 'astronauts' as the term in the vast majority, and a few cases of 'spaceman' and 'man in space'. 人 'ren' in Chinese is genderless.

Taikonaut is however used by the Global Times and China Daily, tabloid and broadsheet papers published in the mainland. Am pretty sure the term wasn't termed in China, however. Otherwise the pinyin would be correct.

Point of fact: the UK's internet filter was originally implemented about a decade ago, to block child pornography. And (to borrow your turn of phrase) at the time, everyone swore "it's just the child pornography, there will never be a slippery slope!"

My final conclusion is relative movement, the jet stream is moving at speed X vs the ground and the airplane at speed Y vs the surrounding wind, the airplane moves then at speed X+Y vs the ground.

My question is now, a GPS based speedometer will read X+Y speed. A wind based one will read just X.

I should have asked if the airplane is moving faster vs the surrounding wind.

Hi, one of Hawkpost contributors here.

We actually use Keybase as well, and that was one of our inspirations for the exact same reasons! Since one of our main use-cases was to receive secure data from non-tech-savvy people we wanted to remove as much friction as possible, and that included sending the encrypted blob. We're actually thinking of ways of integrating Hawkpost with Keybase.io, namely fetching/verifying keys (as we already do with keyservers).

> Condemn Guantanamo from a moral viewpoint if you want.

That's what I did from the very beginning. And repeatedly throughout this discussion.

> (Note that all POW camps will certainly have innocents, so the same moral apply to the whole Geneva Convention.)

No, my moral problem is that there's no clear path to resolution for Guantanamo detainees, not just that some are innocent. I feel like I made that clear in my first response to you about Guantanamo. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=12736359

> But stop arguing against legal facts when you don't have a clue... Don't trust the media to inform you.

"Don't have a clue" is rather unfair since I provided citations into the text of the Geneva conventions to support my understanding. You on the other hand have been flip-flopping between different interpretations, claiming first the relevance of article 118 and later stating that only article 3 protections are provided. I don't think you're as well informed as you'd like to be perceived.

I also don't think "the media" has any relevance here.

This is my ethos. I have two young boys--one 4 year-old and one 18 months--and this is how they are growing up. My four year old was riding without training wheels by two and on skate ramps by three [1]. My wife was initially against it but through my stubborn insistence, she's come around. As I mentioned in another comment, my sister and I grew up doing all sorts of dangerous shit and I will forever be grateful to my parents for not raising pansies. We build a rickety tree fort high in a tree and threw balls of mud and rocks at each other and the other neighborhood kids who played with us. We rode our bikes across major streets, we made homemade fireworks, and we had a trampoline in the neighbors' yard and a skate ramp in the driveway. It was an amazing childhood and it's exactly what I want for my boys. When we moved out here to small-town Kansas from the Seattle area, we spent time looking for the right street and we found it. Packs of kids roam unsupervised and there are few backyard fences. It's perfect. I hope that "playborhood" does become a thing again because there's no better way, IMHO, to raise kids.

> I suppose one could argue that cities in the early - mid 20th century weren't as heavily populated. I could be wrong, but I would also assume that noise levels were much lower and the streets much less congested.

That is wrong I think. Inner London for instance still hasn't recovered the population level that it had in the 1930's. There are also videos that show a lot of traffic, and huge numbers of pedestrians. Go back another 30-50 years and most of the traffic would have been horse-drawn carts, which means enormous amounts of excrement, and extreme levels of noise, because before the invention of pneumatic tires wheels were metal on stone.
I think for me the main issue is the lack of a decent search. Take for example buying a power supply from Newegg.com or Amazon.com:

I want a 750W PSU, made by Corsair, Seasonic, Antec, or NZXT with at least 4 Molex, at least 1 GPU power (8pin) and a Platinum efficiency rating.

With newegg I can set those filters, then sort by lowest price or highest reviews or re-evaluate the filters.

With Amazon I can search for 750W Power supply, and then maybe have some of the choices on the left, but not every vendor lists their product correctly.
Amazon's search system is terribly broken, in many way. For example, if you try to sort by price, perhaps to find the cheapest option, then the results will be filled with random other items from completely unrelated products, no matter how exact your search is, or whether or not you are searching in one department/section or another.

The sad thing is that, unlike many other areas, parenting in the U.S. is getting worse, not better.

How a terrible pitch landed $23m in funding
Yes. For a long time, I felt like they were on my side. But that was before the introduction of ads, obviously manipulated reviews and star scores, and vast arrays of garbage products. Now I feel like they are starting to see me as an object of exploitation.

That, alas, is the natural outcome of a metrics-driven management style. If you use short-term measures and see revenue increases as good, then you inevitably stop seeing your customers as people; human relationships are subtle and long term.

For a long time no competitor could have gotten my interest, because I trusted Amazon. But now I'd be willing to switch.

> From an evolutionary perspective, the obvious question about risky play is this: Why does it exist? It can cause injury (though serious injury is rare) and even (very rarely) death, so why hasn’t natural selection weeded it out? The fact that it hasn’t been weeded out is evidence that the benefits must outweigh the risks. What are the benefits? Laboratory studies with animals give us some clues.

Very nice read. I particularly love this sentence:

ESL here, so bear with me. Is this the right use of "repudiated"? The definition for "repudiate" is:

"refuse to accept or be associated with: she has repudiated policies associated with previous party leaders."

I can't find a logical link between this definition and the sentence in this post.

The premise: A web browser aimed at information presentation, largely textual. It will offer a standardised format, non-Javascript, uniformly presented readable Web page, not intended for apps, but a sane set of presentation defaults for a given site.

Site-offered CSS would be ignored (or at best strongly deprecated). Straight-bog HgsML 1, 2, / HTML5 sites would render best. User could opt for specific client-side stylesheets, e.g., night mode, large/small font, etc.
People been reporting shit on Trump for years but it's scattered everywhere. If I was accused of shilling, I'd put that together into a report slamming him too.

Yes, and what came before was a discussion of the morality of drone strikes. There was never a discussion of the legality of anything except maybe Trump's claimed sexual conquests.

So paddyoloughlin is 100% right and "You were the one, in that very post, who started confusing morality with law, leading to the jumble of responses since."

I'd like to see some evidence that today's sites are less readable than those that went before us. Otherwise, it just looks like nostalgia for the 'good old days'.

Well I remember the 90s when we there were plenty of unreadable sites, ugly monstrosities with unreadable typography and garish colour schemes. Meanwhile, much of the web is now dominated by sites like Facebook, Google, BBC, etc - all of which are extremely readable.

Both then and now, the reason for the bad sites is that they are made by amateurs. They're the same people that make those terrible leaflets with 20 fonts and loads of clipart. Just because they exist, it doesn't mean the web is getting worse. My anecdotal experience is that it's improving.
They give tours, and they are well worth the time. It's a family owned company, so you get a lot of cult-like adoration for their dear leaders, but it does seem like a great place to work.

That being said, Frank Lloyd Wright hated the location because it isn't suburban. The reason none of the buildings have normal windows is because Wright thought the surrounding urban/semi-urban landscape was too ugly to look at.
It looks like it's working too well. The site is unreachable for me.
And yet, the vast majority of bullying takes place in meat-space, not cyber-space. Most sexual abuse of children happens at the hands of family members. Most self-esteem issues are caused by interactions kids have with other kids, or experiences they have in group activities, sports, etc.

I've never seen a peer-reviewed meta-study that suggests that the Internet is any more dangerous for kids than ordinary life.

There's an element of that, but it exists in combination with the air of hysteria and constant panic influencing the decisions of police and other public officials.

Having fallen off a roof before, I feel like going straight to the 'kill your kids' is a little extreme. I would guess that most falls that result in death are from either a higher than average roof height or onto ground harder than dirt.

Also, how will a child learn about the dangers of heights if they never fall and hurt themselves? You can teach them, and that might work for some, but some children have / need to learn the hard way and that's okay.
