My G9x mouse. I got it shortly after release, so it is about 8 years old now.

It is still going strong and the most comfortable mouse I have ever used. There is nothing that I dislike about it - apart from not being able to buy it anymore.
>adds A64 support

A64 as in the chip that sits on the Pine64? I happen to have a Pine64 model PA642GB (aka PINE A64+ 2GB), which I bought after reading a comment on HN. After I received it I learned that the Linux support was actually terrible so I put it aside and haven't touched it since. Perhaps the situation is better now then?

If it helps, try pretending that she was treated this way because she was black. Would she still be "irrational" to want to stay in a job and earn a good wage without harassment and degradation?

Would I have quit? You bet. But you have to understand that my freedom to do so is conditioned by a few assumptions:

1) I have the financial freedom to quit.

2) Working conditions are appreciably better at competing companies.

3) I'm able to land another job with comparable pay.

4) Quitting won't have negative repercussions on my future career.

Can you say, unequivocally, that all these conditions (and more) are met for her? I can't. Nobody knows that but Susan.

I understand you don't mean to, but you're coming awfully close to blaming the victim. Her quitting would have done nothing to change the environment except to reinforce the culture further, and we have no window into her personal reasons for staying. The point that everyone in this subthread keeps harping on is that they are not at all relevant. Period.

That she stayed is completely immaterial. That's -- legally -- her choice. The fact that, by choosing to stay employed, she was subjected to repeated sexual harassment and misogyny is as deplorable as it is illegal.
the most painful design loss on the new MBPs is the lack of MagSafe.

I have to argue with the last one, I think this garlic press https://www.bedbathandbeyond.com/store/product/oxo-good-grip... is superior. When you're done with this one, you rotate the handle all the way around and the rubber cleaner on the back cleans the press.

I've used both, and mine is easier to clean.

You've hit on something though - it's amazing how many people out there suffer with badly designed kitchen utensils. it's like a blindspot where you don't realise that you could buy a much better vegetable peeler / potato masher / garlic press that would literally make your life easier every day, for the price of a cinema ticket.
Looks great. Why not make this self-hosted possible?

You can charge a continuing fee like $1-2/yr for updates for the self-hosted software. This would bring in more users because it's self hosted and they don't have to worry about them losing their notes on your website or you spying on them. And you're obviously not looking for a lot of money since you're not asking for much.

One actual suggestion is to offer more fonts in the premium in case you want to go ahead with this business model.

The Nokia N9 (specifically the alarm clock)
When trying to find a clone for Android, I found this guy's blog post which explains why it's perfect:

http://www.nition.co/2014/08/the-nokia-n9-alarm-clock/

The swipe interface of the operating system is also the best I've ever used. If I play around with the N9 for a few minutes now; then go back to android, it feels clunky an inefficient again.

#2 The Nintendo Gamecube
It just works without having to setup profiles or download updates, the controller is awesome (subjective) and it carries the greatest Mario Kart, Smash Brothers and Mario Party ever created (also subjective).
Your guessing sounds rather sexist. Why not stick to data instead of guessing? There is enough bias against men already.
Good grief dude, turn off the TV for a couple of days. The Trump has been president for like a month, and literally nothing has happened. Unless you have a burning desire for war in Syria and Russia, why would you strain to find noble intentions in intelligence agencies, of all places?

Indeed. The Perl `rename` is based on the module [File::Rename](http://search.cpan.org/~rmbarker/File-Rename-0.20/).

This name clash makes that the perl module cannot be easily used on CentOS, since the CentOS utility is required for building RPM packages.

You'd have to edit Makefile.PL of the Perl module before installation, to avoid that clash. (I'd prefer to keep the name as "rename.pl", in this case; though file-rename, as on Windows, would work too.)
I've been programming a while now and it definitely is a bad sign if you're rewriting any code often.

Firstly, it takes a lot longer than just making the necessary change. It's a waste of time.

But more fundamentally, I can understand getting it wrong the first time. Throwing what should have been a prototype up without rewriting it. Whatever.

But how the hell did you get it so wrong the 2nd time? And the third time? And the 4th, etc., etc.

Now I'm not afraid to do refactors, massive ones if needed. But there's a big cost to doing it. The big problem with constantly rewriting stuff is that you almost always introduce new bugs. Or you misunderstand the reason behind some of the edge cases and cut them out.

Sounds like the actual problem here is classic NIH syndrome with new programmers coming in, not liking the old programmer's style and rewriting the whole thing.
My "data" is every woman I know in tech sharing this story with a comment like, "A version of this happened to me" or "I know so many people who have had this happen to them." Also multiple stories of women reporting harassment and being forced out of companies, as well as multiple women I know signing NDA's as a condition of receiving severance pay to avoid discussing a company's poor treatment or management of harassment.
...along with "companies must put the profit obligation first."

At risk of labouring your point; which also certainly isn't true in a legal (and thus actual) sense.
Expect everything with DRM to have this problem eventually. Start moving to OSS wherever possible now.
Very interesting. I wonder: what about gunning the engines until they fail? That would leave the plane unable to go far, but still able to make a risky crash landing using a nearby sea, road or field. Or even an appropriate runway if one timed things right.

> I'm not sure I agree with your premise that Russia was only involved to undermine the legitimacy of the election. Do you think Russia didn't care which candidate won? That they don't prefer Trump (who has links with and has made overtures to Russia during the campaign) over Clinton (who has taken a tough stance on Russia)?

I'm sure that Putin in particular may have favored Trump over Clinton because he is alleged to have a personal vendetta against Clinton, but I don't think it matters that much in Russia's decision to mess around in our politics.

Hillary was also only "tough on Russia" in contrast to a self-contradictory isolationist like Trump (who may flip his stance if he's persuaded by the people he has chosen to surround himself with besides Flynn). It's not like she was going to challenge Russian geopolitical shinanigans more aggressively than the previous administration.

> It is ridiculous to suggest that people should stop demanding that the Russia connection be investigated

There's a difference between wanting questions about Trump's connection to Russia investigated and using said questions and possible answers to them which are only tenuously supported by evidence as the centerpiece of a "Resistance" strategy. The first option is perfectly fine. The second option is playing straight into Russia's hands, and has the additional negative effect of desensitizing people to actual misdeeds of the Trump administration when they're finally revealed.

program is native function calls, often poorly performing animations look like this, the connection is not immediately apparent because the calling function looks like it takes a disproportionately and innocently small amount of CPU time.

Admittedly I did not check further so maybe i'm wrong, but that function is at the top of the list for the JavaScript code, if it's GC the connection is easier to establish because you can look at the objects on the heap and see if they are created by that function... if it's native canvas or webGL on the other hand I find I usually have to change the code to find the relationship... maybe there are more advanced ways, I know there is way more to chromiums dev tools that what I use.

I too pissed to dig deeper... why couldn't the site authors be bothered to properly debug some animation code that is clearly runaway.

Solution:

• Mozilla Sponsored Add-On Migrator/Converter that transpiles to equivalent WebExtension code

• Separate lightweight container hosts with DTrace for Core and Extensions (not sure if that makes sense, can you help?)

In fact a friend of mine pursues his Dr. degree on Model-Driven "API-Transpilation" (that's how I call it, albeit limited to CMSs), such that API-breaks caused by CMS upgrades don't result in high integration costs for add-on migrations. Having a complete model for the CMS allows him to support convert add-ons to other CMS too.

Why all the anger? Because API-Breaks cause friction, are avoidable and are commonly known as the biggest "cost-centers & risk-factors" in the software industry.
Software-Architects should instead try to find a composable architecture that supports the transition, instead of moving migration costs to the developers. That would allow everyone else to move over more easily.

The anger caused by the limitations of WebExtentions, are they in fact unavoidable? HN, you've a collection of the most clever engineers of the World! Can we find a solution to this?

My question to HN: Do you know an example or show-case of any complex software that reached similar goals in a way that is transferable or at least advisable to Mozilla? I am really interested, if there is a way to migrate from old to new platforms without "API hiccups". Moving (avoidable?) architecture-debts to a huge fellowship of developers doesn't sound like the way to go. I hope you know about guidelines that removes such frictions for us HN devs that we can just follow suit.

PS: I'm a n00b, but incrementally recreating kernel-level APIs on user-land, then writing an abstraction layer ontop, then exposing a limited set of it via Java-Script doesn't sound elegant and counter-productive. Why not reuse an existing kernel and create drivers and bridges or DSLs ontop of that?

Happy Monday and thanks for your time! :)

Ask HN: Simple TCP Monitoring
Dear HN,

since a few good hours I am looking for a solution. I googled everything in all keyword combination but still can't find a very simple TCP monitoring tool, with a REST interface. It seems:

- all comercial offerings are total kitchen sink
- open source variants do not have the REST API, and require CLI or some very 90's style web cluttered interface

Thank you in advance for any hints!

The issue (in the US) is how many people read those Pulitzer winning stories vs. watched Fox News and other sources that are driven by the Murdoch/Ailes/Koch agenda.

Most fountain pens have the nib and feed as one glued unit (confusingly, informally called the 'nib'), so you can't adjust the flow. Compare the 'nibs' at the top and bottom of this page. https://www.gouletpens.com/replacement-nibs/c/294
The ones at the bottom can only be used in Noodlers pens.

The Noodler's also have the feed made of cutable ebonite instead of cheaper plastic, so you can carve out a deeper ink channel if you want.

Neat Haxe coding tips
I have done that before. I just have a long list of things I want to do, not necessarily learn, but don't end up doing them.
Do people not still believe that the best way to get a rounded perspective is to read widely? If you suspect the sources you are reading are biased you may very well add yet more sources to that list to try and compensate for the lack of integrity of those you are also reading.

Of course that only gets you so far when all of them are just reporting from the same source, which itself is a false story.

There is a technology example I often consider - the release of the 3900 series processors from Intel. I and many others read all the reviews from all the reputable (and non reputable sources) and all of them concluded confidently on release day the 3930k would overclock to 4.9+Ghz. It didn't however, in retail they topped out at 4.6 and more frequently 4.4Ghz. Intel had sent out golden samples of a stepping they never sold. Did reading widely help those purchasers make an informed decison? It didn't. Did the journalists report unfairly?! Well maybe. What shocked me was that they themselves never broke the story of the steppings, just random people buying CPUs organised on a forum worked it all out from CPU-Z and their own overclocking results.

I don't have a solution, I don't think there can ever be one when humans are so willing to lie to make money or just attributation.

"Pariah" might be "like the n-word in south India" because in India the relevant castes and ethnic groups are still there and applying the term to an Indian is an actual insult, but for everyone else it's a purely metaphorical reference to a specific and remote historical instance of people treating other people with extreme contempt or worse.

What scares me is that there is no evidence, only allegation. Yet people are jumping on the bandwagon, making sure to pillory anything they disagree with in connection to an alleged incident. Guess what? People lie. Until some proof is offered, you should treat the accuser with dignity but assume the story is false.

In Canada civil servants and researchers would go on the record when they spoke to the press. Those type of "leaks" were very different from the current ones that have anonymous people attributing beliefs to 3rd parties that promptly deny.

The real lesson is that when the media doesn't do its job of ensuring leaks are accurate (where is the proof? can I see some documents?) they descend into partisan attacks which discredit them and weaken the role of the media as a check against executive power. Wikileaks is the role model: its leaks were factual and credible and could be checked for accuracy.

How to Innovate in E-Commerce Industry: Tips for 2017 and Beyond
My grandfather's [1] Nikkormat FTn [2], which is more or less a consumer version of the Nikon F [3]. It's equipped with roughly the same features, but implemented somewhat differently - for example, shutter speed is adjusted via a ring on the lens mount, instead of a knob on the top. It's by far the simplest SLR I've ever used, and in some ways also the most capable - you do still need to know how focus and exposure work, but once you have those basics under your belt, the camera gets right out of your way so you can take the pictures you want to take. It's also built like a tank - the kind of thing where, if you drop it on your foot, it probably won't break, but your toes might. And, like any handheld machine engineered to tight tolerances, it's just a pleasure to use.

That camera's served three generations of my family very well; my grandfather and father each used it for years, and I learned the basics of photography with it. It's honorably retired now, but if I ever start to shoot film again, that's the camera I'll use to do it. And if I don't, I'll still have benefited massively from having used it, because the Nikon D5300 I now use (and used to take [1], a few minutes ago) can still take any glass with an F mount - which not only means that I can still use Grandpa's and Dad's old glass, but that if I want, say, a 500mm tele, which I do because the moon is far away and hawks take it amiss when you approach to improve your shot, I can spend $100 on a manual lens that I already know how to use, instead of spending $10,000 or more on one that supports automatic focus and aperture.
