I remember a few years ago when people bought 10MB. And WhatsApp for a whole week.

In fact, till today, my dad doesn't subscribe for data. He uses WhatsApp on a PAYG basis which would be financial suicide with other apps or browsing the web.

For instance, Skype can eat 1mb+ just by launching it on Windows.

WhatsApp is fast and easy on resources. I know someone who still uses WhatsApp on blackberry bold!

Skype on the other hand takes forever to open and a few more to connect on a 1GB ram phone.

The only time skype beat WhatsApp on speed of launch was when it was baked into the bareboned SMS app on WP.

One area where WhatsApp stands heads above the rest for me is notification. It's timely, and doesnt get lost. Notification counts are accurate unlike skype which always displays (1) pending even if you have 10 new messages - even On desktop.

WhatsApp understands the market better than the rest who mistakenly believe that the rest of the world has similar high, reliable, cheap network speed/ fast devices.

It makes me wonder why they all collect usage, device info, network data... at all.
On the other hand you have the same kind of problems with Maven. You have to state your dependencies explicitly which can be a pain. And Maven does not support multiple versions when running tests. Everything is lumped into one classloader (afaik), where I sometimes wish Maven would make use of something OSGi like. With regards to dependency declaration both are pretty similar.
Huh, this is the kind of silly moral outrage I'd expect from far right religious conservatives.

The arguments here that

> While certain sex doll manufacturers have argued that their products might act as an outlet for customers' aggression or criminal predilections, sparing potential human victims, experts worry that those behaviors could easily bleed into real life.

remind me strongly of the old, tired lines about how violent video games are "training our kids to be killers". And it sounds just as specious here.

> For sex workers, 45% to 75% of whom experience violence during their careers, the possibility that their customers' conduct with dolls might be transferable is very real.

Okay, but a) does any data show that that actually happens, or is this just the pearl-clutching it sounds like, and b) do we ban activities because they might cause our attitudes to change in a negative way? If a study showed that, say, eating Doritos made one more likely to rob a bank, would we then start banning different brands of tortilla chips?

> It's also real for any woman whose partner might be sneaking off for sex with dolls, which raises yet another pertinent question: Who asked for this?

Lonely dudes, presumably?
Congress Should Leave Alice Alone
I frequently visit the area of the future (present?) Bears Ears National Monument. It is interesting to hear people say "traditional uses" of the land out there. Each person has their own definition. The problem is that non-native people didn't live out there until relatively recently. For example: how can cattle grazing in a desert be considered traditional if it has only happened for 100 years or so? It is a desert, after all, not a lush grassland.

Also, the propaganda that calls this a "land grab" is misleading. The land was already owned by the federal government. They aren't taking anything. Yes, they are placing restrictions on use (which will negatively impact me, btw), but the popularity of the area has exploded just in the last few years. I don't think the current "free for all" (which is fun) approach can continue forever.

The only thing that concerns me about national monument status is that they might try to make it into a Disney Land experience like the other national parks. It would be ruined in my mind if they created giant paved RV campgrounds with flush-toilet bathrooms.

Find a copy of the book "Desert Solitaire" for a better written summary of the issues out there. My views track pretty closely with the author's.
> Gender balance is a good thing for the economy and our future as a nation

Gender equality is a good thing. I'm not sure why the assumption is that this means perfect parity across every industry.
This is fascinating. How in the world does the body "raise antibodies" that are effective against arbitrary proteins it hasn't seen before? How does this get "remembered" and how does the memory get communicated through the body?

No, I am very neutral, but it's good to check myself. I just vent on HN. I believe the eye rolling is not just people in my group. It's a response to repeated promises that go unfulfilled. They are actually quite verbal about it too. I'm usually the one trying to calm the group, which is why I built up quite a bit of frustration about the topic.
> People are also extremely crafty about carrying all sorts of improbable objects (I saw a dining table once!) in a way that wouldn't be out of place in Indonesia.

I find it easier to carry heavy objects while cycling than while walking, because the upper body can be much more stable, less bobbing. The speed difference is negligible though, because you really don't want to outrun your severely encumbered braking.

Except it's really not. Reality is an equal number of female and male voices.

It's ridiculous movies don't tell women stories, nor show women characters; just "love interest", "plot device", etc. Even in fantasy a female lead is surrounded by a male ensemble or is a proto-male.

Hollywood: we have creative freedom, movies can be whatever we want, and we make them sexist.

IMHO, seeing Hollywood's sexism really ought not to be a too hard a place to start. People resist this. But they can't! Just google "best <genre> movie" and see all those male faces on posters. WTF Hollywood!
The device somebody needs to make is a little 3x2 home/end/pgup/pgdown/ins/del block of chicklet keys with an adhesive back that I can stick on to my Macbook Pro to turn it back into a computer.

Most (all?) other manufacturers have also ruined that little magic block of keys, so there would certainly be a market from folks like me who were brought up in a world where you could delete a character or jump to the end of a row with a single finger.

Charge me $500 for the thing and I'll still buy it.
How long would you tolerate not having a fellow staff member, upon whose work you depend, away from their position? 8 weeks seems like a long time to have someone away from work, or to have to cover someone elses job during their absence.

A lot of things can go wrong when people are gone from their work environment in that situation.

From that perspective, it seems more than reasonable.

Exactly. In about 2002 I worked on a PS2 game where you played a dog (Yes you could do a turd. No you couldn't lick your balls).

I spent ages tuning the code that determined how high to place the dog's centroid above the ground. I gained a lot of respect for the amount of geometry calculations a real dog has to do in order to keep its face out of the floor when running. The code needed to start reacting to a probable landscape collision hundreds of milliseconds before it happened in order to prevent the need for unnaturally large forces.
I looked for information on the national park you linked to. This says that grazing, hunting, fishing, recreation, etc., would all still be allowed[1]:

>The monument designations maintain currently authorized uses of the land that do not harm the resources protected by the monument, including tribal access and traditional collection of plants and firewood, off-highway vehicle recreation, hunting and fishing and authorized grazing.

It's apparently also an important deal for tribal sovereignty[2]:

> Under the Bears Ears Monument designation, an intertribal coalition will partner with the U.S. Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management to manage the area — which is slightly bigger than the state of Delaware — ensuring that tribes have access to food supplies and firewood.

This[3] says that existing grazing is usually grandfathered in, but that new grazing is limited. I get the impression that there's a lot of disinformation out there.

Aside from your development skills and portfolio I think you have to work on your self-esteem. Even if you have great knowledge about js and react if you act like a junior who had no jobs before they wont hire you. I've gone through this and when I realized there are many companies in need for developers I knew I'm valuable. Be a little more confident and don't let them scare you - they need you as much as you need a job. Of course you have to have knowledge with this attitude, but it's easier to gain knowledge than gaining confidence. Just be optimistic, don't give up and I'm pretty sure you'll find jor full-time job.
This was _literally_ your opening sentence (look it up if you don't believe me):

> So he took philosophy out of the normative, positivist, Hegelian world

Former philosophy person here.

In analytic philosophy, those three are generally understood to be all at odds with each other. "Normative" has to do with values, typically moral ones such as "good" or "ought". Positivism in analytic philosophy generally refers to an early 20th century school of thought (see, for example, the Vienna Circle) that roughly held that the only meaningful statements were those that were empirically testable, or that were a priori; all other statements, including normative ones, were simply meaningless. Positivism exerted an enormous influence on analytic philosophy that is still felt today, though few if any philosophers identify themselves strictly as such anymore. As for Hegalianism, that was/is a major influence in Continental philosophy, but has had very little influence in the analytic tradition.

I haven't read much Nozick, but considering the article discusses his reaction against the analytic tradition, the closest thing he was reacting to of your three was positivism, mixed with the intense influence of philosophy of language that evolved out of the work of Frege and Russell.

The chargers I've seen are actually built into the parking log. [0] Image of ones similar to the ones I've seen. People who have an electric vehicles at home do, indeed, have a large cable similar to what you see on that image. It's better than it looks, because it retracts into the wall. I've never had a close look at ti, but I assume the coupling is protected from water somehow.

Keep in mind that I live in the countryside. Large cities have serious parking challenges. I'm not surprised that San Jose has lots of electric vehicles on the streets (more than Japan), but that is hardly typical of the US. Overall, both countries have very little penetration at this point.

As for hybrids, the top 2 selling cars in Japan last year were essentially the Prius with over 300k vehicles [1]. Admittedly, there isn't anything else making a big impact, but that's still quite a large percentage of the overall market.

I've met with the BLM folks out there and helped them repair trails. The BLM isn't anyones enemy.

They have gotten a lot of guns pointed at them by people who are upset that they can't ride ATVs in an area with lots of sensitive Anasazi artifacts, though.

The BLM gets along just fine with many ranchers. There are a few bad apples out there that think that because they were the only ones using the public land for a while that they should keep it. Ranchers in general get a pretty sweet deal from the feds. Be skeptical of claims that they are getting screwed. The prices they have paid are extremely low.

Seriously. The primary problem with prostitution, and imo the only reasonable argument for it being illegal, is the fact that women (and girls) can be, or at least feel, pressured into it. Now, one could argue that criminalizing it in fact makes these problems worse, and makes the act more dangerous, somewhat like criminalizing drug use. But leaving all that aside... this place hurts literally no one. So if some guys enjoy going there, fine!
Exactly this. The character control in some games (eg GTA 4 and 5) feels laggy and imprecise because stopping, turning, reversing takes a lot of time. Yes, it is "natural", "realistic" and it looks nice if you're watching someone play, but playing yourself it feels like steering an oil tanker :)

I wonder how long this will matter. When we're all living in shared studio apartments in car-free megacities, will there still be interest in going places whose whole appeal is being out of mass transit range? Will we still own camping and hunting gear?

Will rental cars be economical when leisure is the only remaining use of the automobile?

To be frank, most users often don't have a better performant alternative (outside of maybe a browser tab) so it seems like a redundant point.

At least in the short term, having a few charging spots here and there (similar to parking spots for handicapped people) might be enough. Make them free to use for overnight parking/charging, and people won't need a garage. Of course you have to plan to scale up the infrastructure in time (which is hard because a parking lot full of chargers can drink electricity in the megawatts), and sooner or later it won't be free anymore, but it's a start.
