Well if you're willing to compromise on security by trusting a password manager / encrypted volume (plus user opsec) to store your passwords, there are other compromises one can make to facilitate easier memorization. Security by obscurity is a worthless feature when designing a cryptographic system, but it is an invaluable tool for your own personal opsec. Reuse some passwords for services with a lesser threat model, with slight changes. Is it sub-optimal? Sure, but so is trusting a black box program with your passwords, probably running on your everyday (read: unsecure) computer. As your parent noted, you can't automate low tech cryptanalysis, and you're really not that important.

I would say that everyone had or has role models, even without realizing it. First, people at to the large percent are products of their childhood impressions, family, society. It's easy to see, how rarely they take paths completely different from what they have seen and were surrounded with. If you analyze you life paths, decisions and choices, you'll find some particular reasons why they took place: because something influenced you. To me, role model is not just some particular person to follow. If you see that some group of people are common to show some particular behavior and is successful as a result, it gives you a clear signal that 1) you can do the same since you belong to that group 2) this pattern is a proven path to success. No particular person, but a very strong and potentially life changing role model, that many people don't even realize influenced thei life path and desisions. 0% of, say, women in some field is a negative role model, because if you are a woman and never seen successful women in this profession, why on earth should you start thinking that it is a great or feasible path? People stick to what is normal around, all their context is a role model of what is likely possible and what is not.
Ask HN: What the fastest internet speed Larry Ellison could buy for his boat?
Let's make a few assumptions:

- needs to work anywhere in the world a mega yacht can travel

- using today's technology and infrastructure (aka no launching new satellites)

- focusing on raw speed, not latency

- combining multiple signals is not cheating

- price is no object, as Larry is doing this to one up his fictional buddy who has the 2nd fastest possible Internet connection
Thanks!

As for the Pinboard sync: not really. Since I made this mainly for myself and for personal use and since I don't use Pinboard I never thought of adding it. But it does seem interesting, maybe in the future.
This is mostly true, unless you specialize in legacy technology to serve a niche, like COBOL mainframes. In this regard the profession is similar to that of a doctor or a lawyer, where the knowledge body is not as impermanent.

I do pretty much the same thing as you for "working tabs" but I bookmark each tab set as something like "[WIP] coffee shops to visit in manhattan" so Chrome doesn't get bogged down with 100+ tabs and multiple "sessions".

I also wrote some AppleScript code to move open tab sessions back and forth between Safari and Chrome [1]. You also might be interested in some of the alternatives listed in the readme, like OneTab.

Lots of soft skills in this thread (which is not a bad thing; plenty of good stuff there) so I'll give you a technical one:

I have been following Typescript and I increasingly believe that it will displace traditional backend web development, and we'll end up with Typescript on the backend and the front end. I think this because:

- it's a very modern language with great type features (it's clearly better than JS in my mind)
- it's got tooling support in all the major IDEs
- it's under rapid development
- it's being pushed ahead by Microsoft, and other big industry names
- it's been/being adopted by many projects, and it seems especially by people in the React space.
- Node is mature for server-side

If I was a Rails developer in particular) or a Python person who only does web (Python's not going away in scientific computing) I'd be keeping an eye on it. The way Typescript is going it may end up being a better, safer, faster language than Python [0], with the benefit of running in browser, on the server, and as a mobile app via React Native.

[0] this might be part of why Python is slowly starting to move on the typing front, but given there's still a lot of people on 2.x it'll be a while before progress is made. And it's only type hints, not enforcement.
Also looking at you, HN commenters. Keep your fucking theory of consciousness to yourself please, and go learn about what practicing neuroscientists actually do.

> What my respond should have shown you is that it isn't clearly black and white.

And you completely failed to do so. All you showed was that there exists somebody who doesn't want net neutrality. You didn't even show whether they have any non-selfish reasons for that opinion. You showed the existence of opposition, not the existence of reasonable or viable opposition.

The merits of a side's arguments must be considered when judging whether an issue is largely one-sided, because it is always possible to construct unreasonable arguments against something.

I'd like to know roughly what you would consider to be sufficient justification for calling a politicized issue one-sided with respect to its public policy soundness.
Smacks of conspirology and pseudo-science. Who cares if it's GMO? All food we eat is GMO. Non-GMO animals and plants hate to be eaten (well, most of them, some use being eaten as distribution strategy, but even those aren't targeting humans), and take measures to avoid it. That's why thousands of years ago humans started the project of genetically modifying them to make them more eatable. And we were spectacularly successful.

Not sure what genetic variance of the soy I'd eat would make for me - the genetic material would be destroyed anyway once I eat it.

Also not sure what it has to do with micro-organisms.

Phrases like "incredibly hostile to basic function on the cellular level" again sound like pseudo-science - what it actually means? Which function? How hostile?

Soy certainly contains amino-acids - e.g. see here:
http://www.scielo.br/scielo.php?script=sci_arttext&pid=S1516...

The total content of the following amino acids were quantified in the soybean samples using NIRS: Glutamic Acid (Glu), Aspartic Acid (Asp), Alanine (Ala), Arginine (Arg), Phenylalanine (Phe), Glycine (Gly), Histidine (His), Isoleucine (Ile), Leucine (Leu), Lysine (Lys), Methionine (Met), Methionine and Cystine, Proline (Pro), Serine (Ser), Tyrosine (Tyr), Threonine (Thr) and Valine (Val).

Etc, etc. - in short, I'm not sure what you're talking about here except for evil Monsanto capitalists being out to kill us all.
"Paint every day" is great advice for staying sane and remembering the craft of programming (or for that matter painting).

I don't know how old the author is, so I have no idea what "5-10 years" means to him, but for anyone not at the beginning of their career I might add:

1) Add value well beyond any specific "engineering" you do. Beyond a certain point you will be valued for what you bring to the business; your coding mojo becomes less interesting to everyone as you get older.

2) Be good (get better) at the social part, including the boring meetings. Or make your "F-you" money in the startup world and do whatever you want... but if you don't do that, over time you will need to be good at the interpersonal side of the business you're in.

3) Don't treat #1 or #2 as excuses to stop caring about the code. Even if you make SVP and can't (shouldn't!) care about the company's code in detail, you should still care about your own, and about good code in general. Otherwise they will see your soul at the edges of your eyes, and it will be corrosive.

Like probably most of us, I need to work more on #2, and get better at explaining #1.

I do code every day, meaning 5-6 days a week; but I admit that I struggle to actually paint regularly (I am also a painter). Working on it...
I've been driving my own car with/for uber for over a year now. I have the grandfathered 20% Uber share fee deal and driving for them is barely break even. For the past 6 months, I've posted signs facing the PAX, taped to the back of the front seat headrests that clues them in about Uber's misinformation campaign which convinced riders that the tip was included and that it was distributed to drivers. Also I printed out any of the numerous national magazine stories (U.S. News and World Report, for one) and stuffed them in one of the seat pouches for PAX to read. The tipping in some cases has been generous ($15-$20) and in others, just a few dollars. The tipping makes the Uber driver experience marginally profitable until something better comes along. Most PAX feel good about tipping once you diplomatically clue them in. Like some will say "nice car, very clean." That gives me the opportunity to thank them and say it helps by encouraging tips. They're all surprised at that until I explain that Uber is fighting to be the low cost rideshare—especially when compared to lift, which includes a tipping mechanism in their app. When the rider compares destination estimates—which may be materially the same—Uber wins it for them because they really believe that the tip is included and that you don't have to add it as you do in Lyft's app. This is another example of how the unscrupulous and immoral Uber continues to climb to the top on the backs of the drivers... who, trust me, are not getting rich and barely making expenses.

The most successful terminal system is the web browser, of course.

It's not a conventional terminal, in the sense of a monospaced grid of characters, but the architecture is the same: server and client are separated, all "business" logic resides or originates in the server, and the client is generic and reusable. I could offer public services over SSH, and anyone with an SSH client could connect. (Makes me think of BBSes.)

A specific application offered over SSH requires no pre-provisioning on the client; likewise web applications require no pre-provisioning. Of course, the web wasn't really intended as a terminal system, it was a hypertext system theoretically divorced from any given user interface, but it's certainly become an applications platform, and the way it's managed to inherit some benefits from terminal systems is a major reason why.

Nowadays probably most line-of-business, intranet applications are web-based, but there appear to be exceptions. I did see one business who kept its orders in some unknown application accessed via PuTTY, used quite proficiently by salespeople who AFAIK were otherwise nontechnical.

Here's a study that found "Increased religiosity in residents of states in the U.S. strongly predicted a higher teen birth rate.... With data aggregated at the state level, conservative religious beliefs strongly predict U.S. teen birth rates, in a relationship that does not appear to be the result of confounding by income or abortion rates. One possible explanation for this relationship is that teens in more religious communities may be less likely to use contraception."

I wish the author had gone into more detail as to how we elevate users to the skill level that they can use more "power user" oriented interfaces. Is it more training for the elderly, more exposure to computers when children are young, a combination, or something else? Per research from the Neilsen Norman Group (https://www.nngroup.com/articles/computer-skill-levels/), the vast majority of users are simply not at a "strong" level of computer skills. As a UX professional, if I had to make a UI that was tailored to the general public, I would specifically focus on power users last since they make up the smallest user group.

That being said, I agree with the opinion about superfluous animations. More programs need to have the ability to turn them off.

Here's what the UK means when it talks about portion size.

http://www.nhs.uk/Livewell/5ADAY/Pages/Portionsizes.aspx

> Small-sized fresh fruit

> One portion is two or more small fruit, for example two plums, two satsumas, two kiwi fruit, three apricots, six lychees, seven strawberries or 14 cherries.

> Medium-sized fresh fruit

> One portion is one piece of fruit, such as one apple, banana, pear, orange or nectarine.

> Large fresh fruit

> One portion is half a grapefruit, one slice of papaya, one slice of melon (5cm slice), one large slice of pineapple or two slices of mango (5cm slices).

Note that this is for fresh fruit, and definitely not juices or smoothies.

> Unsweetened 100% fruit juice, vegetable juice and smoothies can only ever count as a maximum of one portion of your 5 A DAY.

> For example, if you have two glasses of fruit juice and a smoothie in one day, that still only counts as one portion.

A rough rule of thumb: one portion is what fits in a cupped hand.

One thing that I think is worth mentioning: This was completely avoidable. Git isn't that old, it wasn't taken by surprise by the SHA1 attacks.

The first paper from Wang et al, which should've put SHA1 to rest, was published in 2004, the year before the first ever Git version was released. It could have been easy: Just take a secure hash from the beginning.
Author here - some of it applies to all databases generically (performance characteristics of a B+tree and cost-based optimization).

But MariaDB diverged from MySQL 5.5 (2010); so there is a lot which is different.

Maybe I'm a little dense here, but that reads very strange to me and does not seem to make any sense. A burger made of 50g chicken and 50g poly styrene would still contain 100% chicken DNA.

How much DNA (in what metrics?) does a gram of chicken contain compared to a gram of soy?

I think you're right, but I also think that there's very few examples out there of animations that I'd consider within the bounds of making acceptable trade-offs between the usefulness of their visual hinting and their effect on productivity.

For one example, Apple designers are considered amongst the best in the world, but every animation on the iPhone could stand to be 10x faster. It's frustrating for me even just waiting for it to move from an app to the home screen after I hit the "home" button. Even though the animation is relatively short, there's a non-negligible effect on my workflow, and that adds up as I do it a thousand times a week and thousands of times a year.

I'd personally rather see all animations disabled rather than what we have today (or even just an option available to us to do that).
C2: Why We Hate Lisp
You seem to be hilariously ignorant about the realities of aerodynamics, rocketry, and orbital mechanics. Due to atmospheric turbulence and normal thrust variations in the rocket motors that would have to be used for de-orbit burns, any unguided projectiles would have such as huge CEP as to make them militarily useless. Unguided projectiles launched from aircraft today can't reliably hit anything at distances over a few miles; satellites are much farther. A (sensitive and fragile) terminal guidance system would be an absolute necessity. Contrary to what arrogant programmers might think, DARPA isn't run by idiots and they gave up on such nonsense schemes for good reason long ago.

As for asteroid mining, hope doesn't count for anything. There is no shortage of essential raw materials here on Earth. No one is going to commit the hundreds of billion $ necessary to do it on more than a trial basis. There's simply no economic incentive nor is there political will to spend that money. Sorry to burst your bubble.
> and then attack each other for apparently including unjustified assumptions in those general statements

So, are the assumptions unjustified or not? polarization is self-fulfilling, if people believe that it is "us" vs "them", then it is "us" vs "them".

> Do you disagree?

Disagree with what? The statement is very general.

The statement "some things are True, some things are not True" is tautologically true, and utterly unproductive.

but I think you've missed the point, the intersection of the two:

> it's well known that our perceptions are often wrong

If this is an example of a "generalizations across large groups of people", then you claim to believe that it "degrades our ability to see the nuance and diversity of opinion and perspective that clearly exists".

You can't be exact about large groups of people to absolute resolution, there is always a degree of generality. Your own statements show that, either a) there are some statements, perhaps due to their passivity, can be made about large groups of people (but as a result, say very little) OR b) there is some acceptable level of generality when talking about large groups of people.

My conclusion is that either, there is a correct level of generality (that you don't establish), or that you can never talk about large groups of people, or at least say anything productive about them.

> I didn't think my initial comment was going to result in this contentious thread

I think everyone speaks at some level of generality about many things, whether they realise it or not; so simply language policing others on that basis begs a lot of questions.
>The people with the wealth pay people for one reason and one reason only: they have to.

No, that is not true. Human beings are complicated, and different people do things for different reasons. There are lots of rich people like Andrew Carnegie and Bill Gates who spend the first part of their lives doing everything they can to get rich, and the second part giving it away for the benefit of mankind.

Tough crowd! I'm not going to get too detailed here, I'll let you do your own research:

-Hormone disruption from the lack of useable amino acids and 'bad cholesterol' from which your body cannot properly create/maintain cellular function (immune system, endocrine system, gene expression.) Alternatively, with healthy fats and saturated fats from unprocessed red meat, including the good balance of proper amino acids, for instance, your body can create the required hormones more efficiently and in proper form. Your endocrine system (HPTA axis) is incredibly important (and sensitive to disruption) to so many aspects in your body and controls the basic cellular function in any mammalian being. Huge contributor to neurodevelopment, mood and subsequently mental health.

-Hormone disruption from pesticides commonly used in todays farming (especially mega-farms specific to producing for these restaurant chains/grocers.) I encourage you to do your research on these specifically.

-Microflora, more specifically good gut health, is incredibly important in mood regulation and neurodevelopment. Your gut is commonly referred to in the medical world as the second brain -- over 90% of serotonin alone is produced and stored in your guts.

Good day.
