It's the same for me. Although owning 2 mechanical keyboards I'm actually feeling fastest on good low profile keyboards, like the 2015 Macbook Pro keyboard. The Non-Pro-Macbook keyboard however seems awful.

However this superior typing speed seems to be only a subjective feeling for me, some typing speed programs suggest that the end result about the same. I don't think the reason is the key travel alone, it's also the height of the keycaps and the overall keyboard. I find it easier to move the hands around on the lower profile ones.

For less key travel you could try the offerings from Logitech (Romer G Switches have less travel than) or the newer Cherry Mx Silent Switches (which can however only be found on some rare Corsair offerings). I have a Logitech one and the feeling is significantly different to classical Cherry. However the keycap and keyboard height for all of those is pretty much equal to classical mechanical keyboards.
Wix is still in the wrong though. Saying your vendor is in violation of their license doesn't give you any right to violate their license.

When you are a sculptor, you can (among other materials) use clay or marble.

With clay, you start with nothing and fill up the space until you get the shape you desire. With marble, you start with a slab and cut out the bits until all that is left is the statue you desire.

You're claiming that only one of these two things is sculpting, and the other is not.
You're assuming I didn't read it. Maybe you're psychologically projecting.

The government doesn't own what we receive in private trade. Taxing what we earn is government intervention. This is the conventional understanding. What you're doing is what Orwell describes as doublespeak.
When I saw the author talk at LL4 at MIT, he did note that GNU units was an inspiration (and was an inspiration for a precursor special-purpose language.) https://frinklang.org/LL4.html#slide2

I'm a huge fan of the "units" program too. It rules, and I've used it for decades.

The best part is that Frink is "units" plus a Turing-complete language, (which is a provable rung or two up the Chomsky hierarchy,) so you can save values in variables and use them later, write loops, define functions, etc.

You have a point, but it would be rather jarring to go straight from the light touch of a scissor/butterfly switch to the rigidity of an MX Green or a buckling spring. MX Reds and Browns can be a happy compromise.
> Can I put power into all of them?

Yes though it will only charge from one of them. A neat consequence of this is you can now connect multiple power supplies for redundancy. Not at all important for most people but there are some scenarios where it's nice feature to have available.

I'll take serious issue with #12. There's undirected scatterbrained interfaces and that's bad sure.

But there's the other extreme. Like in Google mobile search, you can't do custom date ranges... they've removed one menu item just on mobile.

On SoundCloud mobile you can't delete your own uploads. On reddit mobile you can only do text posts. Or that new version of gas buddy or Google maps or in Google photos on mobile they removed the download option (but then put it back in).

What this process has morphed into is supporting a narrowing and increasingly specific user narrative.

Instead of seeking genericity, it's specificity. This is manifested as removing ports, keyboard keys, headphone jacks, save as menu options, disabling highlighting of text, or an ability to edit the spelling of a word without having to retype it, or an assumption that you want to tag a person and want a drop down menu of your friends instead of type something...

This is done supposedly in simplifying the product but it would be like making a paintbrush that only strokes vertically and only in primary colors...or a microwave with the number pad removed and only 6 auto cook buttons...

I'm not sure what the appeal is personally about mechanical keyboards. As long as I can feel where the keys are so I don't need to look down and feel that I've pressed them I don't understand why you'd want a lot of noise and a lot of travel to the keys. I'm very skeptical about having to work with a touch based ESC key though on the new MacBooks.
Of course not, that's why Einstein worked at the patent office.
He will soon understand and fill his place with keyboards.
Grocery stores have something like a 1-2% margin, and people are often price-sensitive when shopping for food. So they'd have trouble raising prices. Probably they'd try to depend on self-checkout machines more. I imagine fast food companies like Taco Bell would lose sales.

High-margin software companies wouldn't care about the cost of their janitors, like you suggest.
I've just realized that both Dave and Thomas have been focusing on the topic of abuse prevention, while my comments concern fixing the inexcusably wrong treatment of victims. That must be source of the major misunderstanding here. Huh.
> They look at all the new libraries and the fact that they have the most code on github as a good thing, instead of as a warning side that they are already spending way too much time re-writing stuff.

There is a post, somewhere around here, that characterizes the JS culture as being one where shipping is the win condition. And I think this reflects what you describe better than the idea that other cultures merely value stability; JavaScript seems to value Github stars. And, as you say, that leads to a desire to rip out, rewrite, and own things, even if it doesn't necessarily make sense.
> The FSF argue that the App Store's ToS restricts app redistribution and therefore is incompatible with Section 6 of GPLv2: "You may not impose any further restrictions on the recipients' exercise of the rights granted herein."

I anal but why would it restrict recipient's exercise of the rights? I believe as of iOS 10, you can compile your own apps on your iPhone without paying an Apple tax and I imagine the apps have source code publicly available in summer git repository probably on GitHub anyway?

I don't think the argument is that you as a developer are prohibited from using GPL code on apple app store. The argument (rightly) is that you should not participate in that ecosystem because it is a serfdom but then emacs exists on Windows which despite all the overture of "Microsoft loves open source" didn't come even close to saying in practice "Microsoft loves free software". Such is life. You can't win them all, Charlie Brown.

tl;dr I anal but I don't think the GPL prohibits you from putting your app on the app store. Just make sure you somehow give the source code to everyone who installed the app.

And once the Weed is in existence, it can rely on transfer by car, truck and train.

The problem is not the GMO are not financial viable (they are, as long as there are no resistant weeds), the problem in my point of view are not health risks (though some of the in abundance used pesticides are on the carcinogenic watch list here in the EU)- the problem is the same with developing antibiotics. You do, and everyone and his dog uses it for minor injuries, resulting in a fast resistance.
Meaning, this whole genetically engineering is a constant uphill game against statistics.

This company then better not employ any American engineers.
That's funny, some of my co-workers have cherry blue keyboards but the sound doesn't bother me. Most people in the office have one of those Microsoft Ergonomic keyboards though, and the sound of those drives me absolutely mad. I hate it. Maybe I should lay hints or ask them to take their keyboard home and play with it there...
No, I'm concluding it because I have read it so know disconnected from reality your interpretation is.
Decent, yes. On the other hand, if diet changes were able to increase life expectancy by say 10 years (which is what some people claim agriculture reduced it by) then I'd jump at that.

I watched the whole video I didn't see him arguing with authority and violence. He said there can be other factors and he wants to open up a debate.

> As a corollary to this, it means prying into people's personal affairs to determine how much in income tax they owe ...

His argument is to have finanacial transparency which does not mean taxing everything.

As far as progressive taxation is concerned, Organised groups or individuals generate Income by exploiting resources which are either natural or is generated by other individuals. Towards what end they accumulate this wealth? To use within the social framework? So when they use that money won't it impacts society? so I actually fail to understand why they should not be income taxes?
I see the importance of escspe analysis as another indication that tyical Go code does not generate a lot of short-lived objects on the heap. It is just the language does not allow to express particular stack-allocation idioms requiring the compiler to infer them.

Compare that with Java where rather sofisticated escape analysis does not help much besides allowing to return several things cheaply from a function. Typical code there just does not follow stack-like allocation patterns.

Ask HN: Why are SIM cards still a thing?
Using SIM cards in mobile phones seems antiquated. Should there not be a software solution that lets you select which network/s the phone should connect to?

He supports heavy taxes on private property. Tax laws are based on violence.

Socialist ideology relies exclusively on aggressive violence.

>His argument is to have finanacial transparency which does not mean taxing everything.

Transparency is a euphemism for violating people's privacy.

>As far as progressive taxation is concerned, Organised groups or individuals generate Income by exploiting resources which are either natural or is generated by other individuals. Towards what end they accumulate this wealth?

"exploiting" is such a leftist buzzword. People in a market generate income by trading something of value that they generate for currency that others freely give them. Their income is what they receive through private trade. They come under no moral obligation to provide income to other co-nationalists simply as a consequence of making private trades.
Protection in programming languages
People should realise that Matt also has for profit company Automatic and it's mostly defending his cash cow rather than spirit of open source.

Also speaking about originaly MIT licensed editor code which suddenly becomes GPL:
Taking someones work adding modifications on top and slapping different license on top wildly unethical. As it benefits only the person who slapped GPL on top. As I know if you use GPL licensed code you must have GPL license. At least in wordpress case: https://wordpress.org/about/license/. So author can not use the improvements Automatic engineers made while using his library for profit.

Report: Apple is working on e-ink keyboard for future MacBooks
This is a low value comment. A substantive comment would identify parts of my argument that you believe are disconnected from reality, and would substantiate the claim with logical arguments.
What you say would be true if property would be an issue with two people when they meet one-to-one.

There are different kinds of property on a sliding scale.

1) Your personal belongings, tools of trad and other things needed for living are considered yours by everyone in practically all cultures. That's property protected by ethics and morality.

2) Anything past that is service that society/government provides for people living in advanced society. It's not a moral issue anymore. It's a issue of society agreeing on tax rate and forms of property protection.

It would be helpful to at least acknowledge that most people dont' agree with unlimited property rights morals and stop preaching like it's god given truth.
"financial intervention"

I would laugh if the ridiculous lengths you're going to in order to euphemize violence and imprisonment wasn't so fucking terrifying.
There are people whose labor is worth $8/hr but not $11/hr.

You seem to think value and price are the same thing and both can be absolutely determined. Also it sounds weird to talk about people's labor as if they were potatoes, while you assert that minimum wage will result in them not having a job as if it's a nature law.

I'd try to reason with you, but it seems we're not in the same world anyway.
It has been tested in court. Not all aspects, but there is no question as to whether it is enforceable.
First, a single prototype isn't a mature platform.

Second, what makes drawings suddenly less worthy of compensation than a single prototype? Don't they have value?

Third, it's not like the rules suddenly changed here. He knew the rules going in, and he built something he couldn't sell. That's a failure to find a market. Your idea opens up a scam of building impractical, yet dangerous weapons for government compensation.

You should be able to just create a folder that matches the name of the alias and it just works (assuming you turn on wildcard aliases). Incidentally this opens up an odd vulnerability that allows people to effectively store email directly in your drafts folder. Add to this the ability to blacklist any email address that ends up on a spam list (using a disabled alias) and you're pretty much spam free.
Interesting idea, and I definitely see a need for this sort of focused site.

But.

You seem to assume that teams have exactly 5 members.

The site seems to effectively be static HTML, the sidebar links all go to the homepage, the same teams are displayed on every page view, and search is a no-op.

Is this actually a working web app, or just a static HTML MVP to gauge interest?

Is it just me, or does $19M sound ridiculously low for building a prototype of a military vessel?

Most larger yachts that are built for rich people seems to cost around this ballpark, and for them I would expect that no new technology has to be integrated from scratch, in to the core design (as in: motors, geometry of the hull). Exceptionally ugly boats, like Venus built for the late Steve Jobs claim to cost $100M!.

With a innovative new concept, I expect a lot of individual systems to be prototyped, scrapped, reworked. Let alone the effort needed for designing this thing. This is a startup with 20 People (17 of them now being layed off) operating for several years building a SHIP.

Anyone having numbers for typical effort/money/time/headcount spent in designing and building novel boats?
The confidence comes from two things: proportional representation and direct democracy. The people vote about the tiniest of issues (should the sound-proofing be extended on this bit of highway?), which gives a feeling of direct power. It's awesome, but probably doesn't scale all that well since everything is 'scoped', i.e. only those affected by the outcome get to vote, meaning the bureaucratic effort is immense (maybe that's something where AI can help?).
>2) Anything past that is service

That is just an arbitrary distinction to justify your greed for the property of others.

We either have a moral right to make exclusive use of natural resources or we do not. Whatever argument you make for the right to appropriate natural resources as 'personal' property can be applied to the right to appropriate natural resources as 'non-personal' property.

These debates get very philosophical, but when you step out of the theoretical for a moment, and think about what it means to tax someone's income, it's self-evident what property rights are, and that violating them is an authoritarian infringement upon human rights.

Taxing income requires a law demanding that a person disclose personal information on all of their private income to the government. Anyone who refuses to surrender their privacy and disclose this extremely personal information faces the potential punishment of being thrown in prison, where they are kept in a small enclosure, and where they often develop mental illness, and suffer from physical and sexual abuse. This is overt mass-surveillance enforced through threats of incarceration.

Then, once a person has disclosed this personal information under threat of imprisonment, a tax on income requires demanding that people hand over a share of this currency that they've received in private trade. This tax debt is unlike other types of debt. It's a debt obligation that a person assumes without their consent.

If I receive currency in private trade, that's my property. If you came up to me in the street, and demanded I give you a share, and attacked me when I refused, you would know, instinctively, that you're being an aggressor, and so would every bystander who witnessed the assault. It's merely the obfuscation provided by using layers of government intermediaries that obscures this fact when you do the same thing through the political process.
That is the problem with jokes on writing.

While I agree with the main thrust of your post, a couple of things jumped out. First, Cloudflare is a CDN, not an ISP. Second, 1.8 Petabytes per month is 5.48 Gigabytes per month. That is alot, but it isn't THAT much. For comparison, CDN's occasionally handle several orders of magnitued more traffic (although admittedly not for cheap).
I bet it has more to do with the amount of use these ports get (i.e. less and less people using ethernet). And besides, when I get to work, I hook up my laptop to a plain old USB hub which has an ethernet connection.
