I wake up at 5:45, work on project from around 6 to 7:15 or so and then hit gym near work and begin work around 9. I am web developer so I still end up beating most of my team into the office most mornings. As far as bedtime goes, I shoot for around 10:30. This lets me spend the evening with my wife so we get our time together.

Large numbers of people visiting part sounds like a success - the only purpose why the park exists in the first place is so that the residents can go there and visit, so if they're doing it more than before then the park is achieving it's goal and it's great!

It would be reasonable to expect that the job of these city officials should be to (a) encourage the people to visit parks even more; and (b) maintain the parks adequately to their usage - if people use the parks more then it obviously costs more to maintain, but it also obviously means that people are getting more benefit from the parks and they want them to be maintained more.

Enforcing the rules about littering and trampling flowers is part of maintaining the park; but if people are routinely staying past park hours (the whole concept of park hours is a bit strange to me, I'd expect parks to simply be unserviced but otherwise available 24/7), then likely that's a sign that these hours should be extended - the purpose of littering restrictions is obvious but the only legitimate purpose of restricted hours is that the population wants the hours to be restricted for safety reasons or whatever; if now it turns out that the population doesn't want that restriction anymore, then it shouldn't exist.

I clean my personal iPhone/iPad once every few months. I think it's much easier and more possible to sterilize a glass/metal ipad than a keyboard (especially for onboarding of patients in a waiting room.)

I'm not sure that there is. Bookmarks don't work as well because you can't preserve a session as easily. For example, I can just create a new tab group for a project that I want to work on, and then it will stay in the background until I have the resources to work on it.

I don't know about other people, but I find it really useful to research a project and then leave it alone for a month or two before working on it. When I do this I often have a better perspective on the project than if I were to just jump in. With my setup, when I return to it my session is just as I left it; making it very easy to get up to speed.

I would love get rid of chrome and to switch back to firefox as my everyday browser, but simply can't get over how messy/ugly the tabs(even in compact theme) and window title look compared to what chrome does with tabs and title bar, and lack of window title bar.
> The above paragraph strikes a certain horror in me

So you prefer a library's handling of a book over a restoration?

I'm not trying to defend the guy's actions - I just find your reaction curious.

As a bibliophile myself (though certainly not one like your ex - I certainly wasn't aware of such a thing as "book darts", and I certainly know nothing about "special magnifying glasses"), who along with my wife own a quite large collection of fiction and non-fiction books, I find that - while I understand the purpose - libraries tend to treat books poorly (to a certain extent) in the effort to catalog and preserve them; however, without these efforts, the books couldn't be shared and cataloged properly.

Things have gotten better with the addition of barcodes (I wonder if hi-density QR codes have been used?), but practices of the past still linger.

Shinn's efforts - though put to the purposes of deception and fraud - to an extent possibly made the books more aesthetically pleasing. If there is "horror" to be considered, it would be whether or not doing what he did caused ruin to the book, which would depend on his skills and the book of course. For instance, having the original pages, even with markings, is likely of more value than having restored pages, though the restored pages might be better to look upon (and he must have been able to do and exceedingly fine job, in order for the books to pass the scrutiny of collectors and such paying top-dollar for the books).

It's really too bad he went this route with his life; given the little I know from this article, it sounds like his talents could have been most useful for book restoration and preservation efforts...
Did anyone here NOT write their own pw manager?
My biggest frustration with Firefox is that you can't 'Tab to Search' as you can in chrome. Every time I attempt to switch to FF the lack of this feature just kills my productivity and I end up switching back.

So wish this was possible.

It's not the same.

He means something that can access all commands available in a given application, not a launcher.

Ubuntu's Unity has that, giving search access to all the menu entries in the opened application.

Sublime Text implementation is even more powerful, giving search access to all commands, and the list includes commands provided by extra packages added to Sublime.

So I can do, for example: 'ctrl+shift+p', install package, gitsavvy, <enter>; 'ctrl+shift+p', git diff current file, <enter>;
Things have been lazy loaded on startup since Firefox 13: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=711193

but the feature itself is much older.

The problem was that the xul/xbl code creating the tabbar was still doing a lot of work for the not-yet-loaded tabs.

AFAICT XWayland is a server that speaks the X protocol and not an Xlib replacement compatibility layer that emulates X11 client+server in-process and speaks Wayland protocol (though, I imagine various mismatches prevents that sort of thing from working well at all).
For Chrome, the Great Suspender plugin had fixed the resource usage for me, it's kind of like lazy loading + freezing of heavy background tabs, and it enables quick startup even with 100 tabs.

But it should be a core feature of the browser itself IMHO.
Ask HN: Determining how much you should contribute to your 401k
I have no first hand or second hand experience on 401k's, IRA's or other retirement accounts, so how do you figure out what's the right contribution rate for yourself?

4 out of my last 5 jobs have been 1099 employment. They were mostly contract-to-hire or contract with a low hourly pay (think, roughly 25% lower than the average local salary, with none of the taxes withheld). As you can imagine that made it very difficult to save money. I made sacrifices like moving back to live with my parents well into my 30's.

So I'm 33 now and looking to start a retirement plan. Currently I have 2 grand in liquid savings. I have no kids and not married or in a serious relationship. I'll try to get a job that gives me a 401k and figuring out what should I do to make sure my employer matches well. When I start, how much should I be contributing for someone in my situation?
I've looked @ Blizzard jobs and they pay remarkably low. They consider it a privilege to work there. Supposedly it gets better after 3-5 years of proving yourself. Just seems like your typical enterprise position.
I've grown up in cities, dense suburbs and typical suburbs. As a kid I loved the city and dense suburb way more. It's great to be able to walk or bike to school/friends places or the park and have independence as a kid. In the suburbs it's crippling not being able to go anywhere without having your parents drive you.
Firefox lazy loads tabs on startup, but not otherwise. So if you open a YouTube in a new tab it will start playing. Chrome, on the other hand, will not start playing the video, which is nice.

I'm a Firefox user though so that's where my chrome knowledge starts and ends.
Exactly right. This work needs to be entirely automated.
I wonder if the 100+ tab people are also the ones who can handle dozens of cups of coffee a day. I guess I'm boring. Whether tabs or coffee, I do 1-2 at a time/per day.

I didn't ask for references, someone else did and then this person spouted a whole bunch of obviously inaccurate stuff. You can hit the relevant pages on wikipedia and trivially verify that no egyptologist thinks Egyptians during the fourth dynasty lived in the stone age or had barely developed written language (and for that, I did put in a helpful link). The rest is exactly the same - uncontroversial consensus stuff you can get from wikipedia - I don't really need to defend egyptology with meticulous citations.

You can also google the weird claims made by this poster and you'll find that underground lakes below the great pyramid, 'legend of Enoch' and a strange obsession with Herodotus invariably appear on crackpot sites. It seems reasonable to ask for better references for such claims.

Agreed, especially the statement from the company that they wish him best in future endeavors generally means he is not leaving of his own accord or at best the decision was mutual. There are definitely differences in being an inwardly facing VP, Engineering and an Pre-IPO member of the executive committee. Maybe just wasn't his bag.

>“He never argued his ideas. If people didn’t believe in them, he ignored those people.”

I think there's a connection here which reveals a common misconception about intellectual creation, namely that scientific theories are born in a legalistic fashion by criticism, argument and debate. In reality the role of criticism is to defend against ideas we don't like. Ideas we do like are shielded from explicit criticism, for instance by ignoring critics, and allowed to grow in our brains over time. It's a pleasure to return to such ideas again and again, while they remain interesting, so 'patience' isn't required either.
Right. I guess as an engineer, I would be afraid to use something for data storage that is intended more as ephemeral state. But I suppose if you back it up you can always go back.
My whole life I haven't needed a single intervention by the CDC nor the military, and I haven't used a single road in the American southwest. I think we should get rid of them since I'm not getting anything out of it.
A few months ago I switched to Chrome from Firefox for a couple of reasons. However, about a month later I switched back... I just feel dirty using Chromium =/

Although I think the dev tools in Chrome are superior, I love the way I can step through the code and have all the information I need displayed neatly against each step without having to manually watch everything.

Is there anyway to get Firefox to do something similar?

Tabs handled by the OS / window manager seems to be the direction things are headed. MacOS already has a tabs api [0] and Windows is experimenting with a feature called "Tabbed Shell" that would provide a tabs API for the devs that want to use it and would wrap existing application in a tabbed shell for apps that don't.

I would suggest putting in at least as much as your employer matches. Preferably more than that, given that it seems you getting a later start on the 401k savings than many people.

I would guess it's correlated to the rise of other manufacturing competitors like Japan, Taiwan, and later China. After World War II the US had an easier time as much of Asia and Europe's capacity was destroyed.
Even if you're poor, powerless, and uneducated, you still have agency, and the ability to make choices, no?

Women generally have less agency than men. I have an unusually high degree of agency for a woman. I still feel like my life is a lot harder than it would be if I were male. In spite of my determination to exercise agency (or perhaps because of it), the world seems to slam an awful lot of doors in my face.

I think it is really disrespectful of such women to act like they want their lives to remain in the toilet. They probably don't.

But I still stand by the assertion that it's wrong for a judge to use the position he's in to push a birth control agenda on people in a coercive environment.

I guess I am less clear than you that this is simply coercive. The judge may have zero power to offer birth control on a completely voluntary basis. He may be seeing a need and trying to find a way to fill it.

The world seems to not be set up to just do the right thing for the right reasons and yadda. That seems to be a serious uphill battle. It seems far easier to try to slip a little good under the door in spite of the world by calling it "punishing bad people."

That doesn't mean the judge is right. It just means that I don't think the article really spells it out that well and I don't think it is as simple as people are painting it who hear it and immediately dislike the idea on principle.

In theory, theory and practice are the same. In practice, they aren't. Knee jerk rejections "on principle" are often a situation where worse options get chosen because they are more PC, not because they actually, in fact, are better solutions.

> I wonder if this "I want to read this but I'll set it aside for now" model of browsing might be better served with a different UI metaphor...

Sure, you're welcome to design it, I'll even give other methods a try occasionally, but for me every other metaphor has proved worse in some way and I'm perfectly happy working this way, there could be something better, but it isn't bad in a way that I feel needs to get fixed.
> During World War II, those friends included Alan Turing, with whom Shannon struck up a lively intellectual exchange during Turing’s fact-finding trip to study American cryptography on behalf of the British government.

This little tidbit has always fascinated me from a What-If perspective, because of course because of the War and secrecy, Turing and Shannon did not discuss cryptography, the Bombe (Turing's Enigma-cracking machine) or the Colossus (arguably the first electronic computer, except its very existence remained a secret until the 1970s).

How would've things gone had they been able to talk freely?
Is that a Chrome feature or Chrome-only Youtube feature?
Sure a better history along with bookmarks and a pile of things could indeed fix my problem. But using tabs also fixes my problem perfectly well.

I wonder if Google has enough data to look at the search history of (150+) tab users and make a correlation with mental health searches.

I've often felt that the number of tabs I have open was both a symptom of ADD and something that made it worse.
Yes, it's "it's just more aggressively lazy loaded". Unless you are trying to say it's now not doing less work because it's 1) lazy loading but because 2) they don't know how to implement a tabbar and should have used some native component like Chrome.
> My point is that when government sets its bureaucracy on what might otherwise be a good idea, they can taint the benefit that it was supposed to carry, making it ineffective.

Not always. Section 1603 of the 2008 ARRA created a program whereby the Treasury would cut you a check (not a tax credit) for 30% of the cost of any commercial renewable energy installation. There was minimal red tape. You basically had to provide a subset of the documents you as when you financed it. This significantly sped up solar and wind adoption in the US.

Edit: The Treasury would send said check within 30 days of you proving that the system was operational.
I don't see the relevance? I am on the 55b1 and the behaviour I described is with that release. (I only use the location bar, anyway; I've hidden the search box.)

He did things like buy books full of illustrations, took them apart entirely and sold each plate individually because this was essentially untraceable (IIRC). He was not lovingly restoring these books. He was a book predator and the object was financial gain.

My reaction is more to the idea of seeing this stuff and knowing the intent was not at all good. Kind of like the movie scene showing instruments that make it clear the Morlocks eat humans and these instruments are used to kill them, prepare them as meat, etc. I have no fear of, say, knives per se. But in a certain context, it becomes clear what the intent of the instrument is and this can be horrifying.
It's possible today, almost everywhere in the USA. In fact, the power company will usually buy it from you at the same rate that they are charging. My house is turning the meter backwards as we speak.

To do this, you need extra components to protect your house, the power grid, and the electricians who work on it.
Different people are different. When researching a question without a direct answer, it's more effective for me to open up tabs as I read a page and then search the most likely candidate.

I know I'm a power user, but I miss how effective old Chrome was at this.
