>From what I see, there are two Turkeys - the liberal Turkey which resides in cities like Izmir and the conservative ones which come from places like Bursa or Gaziantep. Currently, there are fewer liberal Turks than the conservative ones.

The people you think are liberal are anything but. They used military might to maintain control since the founding of the Republic. They have never won a single election. Every free election has gone to the conservative/Islamist parties. Until AKP in 2002, those parties were all removed by the military. Sometimes their leaders got executed in the process.

So if you want to know why the PEOPLE support Erdogan, its because the alternative to an Islamic Democrat isn't a Western Liberal Democrat. It's a secular Dictator like Assad/Saddam/Al-Sisi

If you think (half-halfheartedly) blocking random websites and a few dozen journalists in prison is bad, why don't you do some research on what life was like when the secular Turks ruled (CHP) Here's a few fun facts:

-Calling yourself a Kurd got you jailed.

-Speaking Kurdish was a crime.

-Having foreign currency in your pocket landed you in jail.

-Standard Old Socialist Econ Policies: Price Controls, High Tariffs, long lines for Butter, coupons for food, etc.

-Couldn't wear headscarf to school/court/etc.

-A female MP who wore her headscarf to parliament was arrested, stripped of her Turkish Citizenship, and exiled.

I could go on, but the point is: Zero freedom of expression or religion in Turkey when the 'liberal' Turks were in charge.
Remove only and replace Islam by Abrahamic and I will come close to agreeing.

Are there implementations of infinite scrolling that delete DOM elements outside of a specified range of the viewport? Then the scrolling still appears responsive to within X pages of scrolling from the current viewport, but any pages beyond that range are actually inserted in on demand when the viewport moves towards them, saving browser memory at the cost of bandwidth and computational time on both the browser and server sides.
More likely that they plug it just around the corner.

If they don't have it near the entrance to their building it means that there is one very near by, the council will not put a new one if there is one within walking distance from your residence.

The street level charge spots usually have a hour limit for this reason even for resident parking.

Check out the Life expectancy report (https://worldoscope.cxjs.io/8nhpbo6).

Below the Life Expectancy in Russia - Female vs Male (1966-2014) it says:
"The Forbes article also states - "What’s interesting is that alcohol-related deaths fluctuated with the times. After Mikhail Gorbachev's 1985 alcohol restrictions, the authors point out, alcohol consumption – and deaths – fell by 25%. But after the fall of communism, both went way up. And after the alcohol policy reforms in 2006, consumption was reduced again by about a third." You can see the ups and downs connected with the mentioned years in the graph above."

It's remarkable how life expectancy in Russia seems to be directly correlated to alcohol consumption, as can be seen on the graph. Each event mentioned in the quote is followed by the appropriate change of the life expectancy on the graph (alcohol consumption presumably goes up, life expectancy goes down and vice versa).

The graph coloring is a bit misleading though, having blue represent the female and red the male population. :)

I'm not sure that this is the way. It's much easier to get a small amount of knowledge about a lot of topics. If you want to be a generalist then that's great, otherwise, I think it's important to keep asking yourself "How can I drill deeper?"

Sure, ridiculing such information is easy, especially when you describe it as you have, emphasizing the easiest targets for ridicule. If your intent was to ridicule the information, I get your comment makes sense. But, IMHO, that's not a very substantive contribution for HN. IMHO, it would have been more worthwhile to highlight the less-easy-to-ridicule aspects of the page, such as the quotes from, and discussion about, the Los Alamos patents for NTBM. Please don't interpret this as an attack on you, I'm just trying to rightly do the information justice, encourage substantive discussion. Also, to point out that if your goal is to discover useful information, then it does not work to discredit the valid content of a comment or page, by measuring all its info by the standard of the easiest to ridicule parts.

Finally, from my point of view, getting your ridicule feedback hurts because my aim is to contribute to substantive discussion here, and I don't want to feel discouraged from posting something substantive because it might also have info that could be cherrypicked for ridicule, then letting me feel like I wasted my effort contributing because the info was later unfairly presented. I don't want to feel like I have to do extra work "defending" the original effort to contribute, against such ridicule. So, please, before you rush to ridicule something, really take a look to see if there is substantive content there, and refrain from misrepresenting it, thanks.

Human behavior isn't exclusive to one country or one point in time, so if you want to improve where we are going to be tomorrow, it helps to look at the past at one's own history, and all around, and to use this information to make better decisions.

You might see trends or evidence of causality, which may not necessarily happen, but might. Being aware of it can help you, and me, and all of us, to reason and to make the right choices.

For example, you may not believe that your president will become a dictator, but then you look at other countries, and realize that neither did their people, until they got a dictator. There's a lesson in there somewhere. It helps to be aware.

Exactly. Somehow we humans are built in a way it is very easy to plant ideologies and make them spread in the society. If you somehow get a group to feel collective guilt for something, you are already halfway of achieving your goals. Groupthink takes care of the rest.

I suppose it is the same mechanism in work as for religions in general.

Adding this because it is not very well known. Cows have never been on that universal "do not slaughter" list of Hindus that it is now made out to be.

Tenets of Hinduism contain cow slaughter rituals. One can argue though that these rituals were special cases and not frequently practiced. Even if we leave such rituals out, beef eating have not been something that would have raise eyebrows in certain Hindu population. Even the so called caretakers of teachings of Hinduism, the Brahmin caste have freely consumed beef in for example Kerala. The current wave of beef ban is just one part of the insular but politically empowered right wing population imposing its morality on the other.
If you think that religion can't be violent, but politics can, I'm assuming you think they're separate. But to quote the Grand Ayatollah Khomeini: "Anyone who will say that religion is separate from politics is a fool; he does not know Islam or politics."

Interestingly, the term "reference type" has been removed from the Go spec in 2013: https://github.com/golang/go/commit/b34f0551387fcf043d65cd7d...

Yet some semi-official sources (like The Go Programming Language book) do refer to channels as "reference types".

Perhaps react virtual list (https://github.com/developerdizzle/react-virtual-list) ?

I've investigated the problem on a VueJS app which rendered a live-updated table-like DOM with thousands of rows, and was quite slow in rendering and scrolling, especially on mobile. For my use case the easiest solution was to render the first X elements, on-the-fly render the next elements as you scrolled down and disable the VueJS watching and reactivity logic for the DOM elements outside the viewport, so that when you scroll back up the elements are still there and you do not spend too much time recreating them (the DOM is slow).

I had to use unexported, private VueJS methods, I raised an issue on Github asking them to provide public hooks but it was declined.

This method works when you have a big but not huge list. In the latter case the bottleneck is not your JS framework but the browser, so yeah, you should delete and create DOM elements on the fly.

(I'd share my code but it's on a commercial app, and a huge hack that I'm surprised I've managed to make work.)
Agreed with your statement in general. I once added a [citation needed] to a non-controversial technical statement that was false by definition only to have the edit reverted. When I asked for an explanation, the editor replied that the tag "has no place on a highly visible page". I never participated after that point.

Are those comments that you are talking about online publications of some established Russian media outlets, or are they just comments of some random visitors to the sites?

As for invasion and NATO aggression, I think it’s worth reminding oneself that there are several opposite narratives battling each other and pushing different agendas — God knows whose. Russia is certainly meddling in Ukranian affairs (and it’s revolting) — but invasion? Isn’t it an act of war? Aren’t countries at war with each other if one country invades another? As for NATO, both NATO and Russia seem to be saber-rattling, each side responding to the demonstrations of the other by further threats. This is plain madness!

It's easy to blame it on "ignorance" as "I am not there, so I don't know". In that country they also voted for it.

Why don't we simply face the ugly truth that most people who voted for YES are the alpha-males, unable to speak the country language, living in parallel societies, who want submissive women?

That's the kind of stereotype that Erdogan wants. I mean, Kurds are nice people, but for some reason they need to be wiped out. Boh!?
Those are some pretty flimsy criticisms of this article.

1. Did you really read what you linked? Twice? Because I saw clear prediction in there. I'm also not sure which predictions he's referring to, but that's certainly not evidence of Taylor being untrustworthy.

2. Yes, John Taylor, brother of Jerry Taylor about whom this article
Is written, is a climate denier. This is addressed in the article. It's weird that you're using that as evidence of Jerry Taylor's untrustworthiness.

3. The criticism in the last link you give is vapid and lazy. They don't prove any of their claims, they just assume premises that allow them to draw negative conclusions.
Oh no I'm actually completely with you on that one. I think Bush and Obama were two sides of the same coin, although I don't think anyone knew that in 2008.
That's actually wrong.

An employer can require you to inform him about side jobs but is legally not allowed to prohibit you from taking a side job unless you work against his interest (eg. negative impact on your performance or competing with your employer).
You are very unlikely to go to jail for left wing speech. This isn't a matter of placement on a political spectrum though.

The law is as follow:

1) No Nazi symbolism outside of a historic context.
2) No inciting racial hatred.
3) No expression of hatred against a protected minority (the wealthy are not a protected minority).

These are very easy to prove, but none of them apply to normal left wingers. There are Islamist left wingers that fall into these categories because of their anti-semeticism or anti Christian sentiments.

4) No denying crimes against humanity.

This DOES apply to left wingers. If you deny Stalin's genocide against the Ukrainians that would be illegal. It also equally applies to holocaust deniers. I don't know how often it comes up though.

5) No speach which undermines democratic values and seeks to opress others.

I don't think that this is ever actually used. Though it might apply against left wingers.

This 'boring company' is one of the worst ideas ever.

The intelligent criticisms I have read of this concept don't claim that it "won't work" or that it isn't possible.

Its just a really bad solution to a problem we have at least a dozen other, easier, cheaper, simpler solutions for already.

Imagine we wanted to go to the moon, but the shuttle and all its parts had to be made of platinum. We also have to make sure all the astronauts have at least a 40 BMI and will bring everything they currently own with them. It might still be possible, but its stupid.

Ask HN: Home finances app
I'm looking for some good solution to looking after the home budget. I've checked a few apps and web services already and they all seem to be... pretty terrible :-( The are only a few features I require:

- ofx / qif import

- recognising transfers between own accounts and cards (transfer is not an income+expense)

- categories (with some guessing about classification, or rules) + monthly report

- ability to mark a card transaction as 50%, or 100% owned by another person, so I can share a credit card and know who owes what this month

- Does not require sharing your bank account password (looking at you, pocket)

Money manager ex doesn't do automatic classification, skrooge is weird about transfer if I import both source and destination account, gnucash is... really complex.

I'm still using a spreadsheet for this and it kind of works, but I'd really like a better solution.
This is putting your head in the sand. The problem is the people, the voters, who put Putin and Erdogan in office and kept voting for more autocracy instead of democracy. Those presidents are just manifestations, symptoms.

There's always going to be a candidate like that to vote for, and democracy can only survive as long as voters prefer candidates who uphold democracy.
I'm surprised it was all driven solely by rendering a single word "handgloves". The diagram hints that it might have even been an all-caps "HANDGLOVES". I wonder if the results would have been better with a longer phrase that included other characters, or some mix of lower/upper case.

Keep in mind that angular is not made for small, simple apps. It's designed to support large web applications and I think it does a great job doing that. Addiitionally, there are seed projects which you can use to avoid writing your own build tools. I agree that the build is complicated but it's much more complicated to make a large scale app without using the abstractions that the build tools provide you with.

I didn't say it wasn't possible, but I've found that hot-swapping in languages that use mutable data structures, and have heavy type systems, makes for a poor experience. If I can constantly cripple the runtime with hot-swapping, or I can't change any type definitions, then there is little point to it.

Most of the Turks I have had contact with in Germany are racist against Germans (they are jealous of the lifestyle, or for whatever other reason).

The reason they are against asylum seekers may be simpler as it seems: they know that the situation was going to create troubles and escalate, and therefore it will be blamed on the dark ones (the focus is on them). Can you distinguish a Turkish from a Syrian, for example? Furthermore, with this huge expenses for refugees, the social money is likely to be reduced, and I don't have the numbers, but many of them live off of the social security provided by the state.

I believe the idea is to make it so this technique isn't useful for analytics anymore (edit: because your MAC mining data would be telling the user is in 100+ places at once). If it would work is an entirely different story because since the devices are stationary and not moving (like a device in your hand or pocket would) would it be easily detectable that it was a "faking" device.

absolutely true! Which says a lot about those people who voted for him.

Thank you! These are my thoughts exactly. I mean, I remember the Soviet times, when the Russian intellectuals, having zero confidence in the official news, used to listen to foreign radio stations over AM radio – Voice of America and BBC World Service (and perhaps Deutsche Welle too) being the most prominent among them. What happened that now the Western media loudly complains about RT? One might even think that the situation has now been reversed, and that the Western world somehow trusts RT more than they trust their mainstream media. But this does not make any sense!
You are describing the more modern half of Turkey aka the vacation belt.

The other half is much worse than what most western people who are familiar with the Turkish resorts imagine.

It's like looking at SF or SV and extrapolating from it the mindset of the Bible Belt.

Erdogan has support of at least half of the Turkish population and in many ways when compared to the more extreme mindset of it he's a moderate.
