> a very basic one

With my language-nerd hat on...

While they may seem basic as a user, designing a language means you need to think about edge-cases. Methods in Rust have some special rules around dispatch, and in order to implement one or both of these features, all of that stuff needs to be considered and designed.

In other words, a lot of work goes into new features, even ones that are easy to use.

In Rust's case, we haven't ruled out adding these features completely, but nobody has put in that work to come up with a proposal. Part of that is that while people tend to see the lack of these features as a mild annoyance, it's not enough to prioritize over other work. We'll see how it all shakes out.
>getting your nails did

The problem with that phrase is that it's a lazy shortcut that doesn't offer any insight, is racialized in a suspect manor, and ignores interesting reasons why people might in your opinion "waste" their money.

Economically if someone is purchasing a nail job, which in many areas is dirt cheap, they may be receiving utility that you are not taking into consideration. A nice nail job may confer social status/capital which can ben spent in place of cash. It may be useful in attracting a more fit mate who can split costs of housing. It may be useful in maintaining your appearance for a customer service job.

Surely, to your point some people do "waste" their money, but it's not necessarily cut and dry what that means. Short sighted expenditures may confer short term value and alleviate short term problems where the capital requirement for a lasting solution may be too high for an individual to afford on minimum wage. This is part of the reason that poverty is a trap.

Hi - author here. I'm afraid I don't have any statistics on this matter - in this case I was relaying what the staff told me. I will see if any of my friends in engineering can confirm this.
Leasing has nothing to do with reliability. You can buy a used car that's still under warranty and sell it when the warranty ends, if that's what you want to do. It's still cheaper.

Unless you value having a brand new car, the 10-20% of the value that the car loses as soon as you drive it off the lot is not worth paying for. You pay for it regardless of whether you lease or buy.

While it may be true that JavaScript has had a large installed base for many years, that installed environment was only capable of operating within the context of a single page load, as long as the browser was open and active, and really was only useful for manipulating the DOM (and JavaScript was a sorry platform even within that ultra-narrow scope).

Node.js changed things by making the platform available on the backend, allowing programs to live longer, but the notion that JS was "important" as a general development solution is incorrect. It certainly was not the "native" or obvious solution for anything beyond manipulating page UI, and this remains the case for the overwhelming majority of the "billions" of devices with JS execution environments. It is still harder to configure Node.js for use on a server than something like PHP.

When I say an "important development platform", I mean that from the perspective of practical use of the technologist, in the sense that the platform is can be expected to host projects that are recognized as clear leaders within a generally applicable space, strongly motivating adoption of the underlying development platform if not already adopted.

I don't know the nuances of this study but I am curious about the role of personality. I have lived much of my life with large groups of caring family and friends and I was miserable. I have lived parts of my life as relatively isolated and reclusive and was enormously happy. Have any related studies accounted for personality? 5,10,20% of the population might be the exact opposite?

I don't know what I am doing wrong, but it seems like I've had a ton of apps just crash/freeze on me as of late (looking at you Google) and the only way to fix it is to force quit apps. If an app does crash/freeze in the background how can I be certain its not draining my battery after all?

Yup, it's really crazy that you have the same timezone like Germany. The most Western point of (mainland) Spain is at -9.25 Longitude, and time would be correct at +15 Longitude, that's more than 1.5 timezones. Even Barcelona at around +2 Longitude is almost a whole timezone off.

Sorry, would you rather me say “tier”? It occupies the top spot in the league pyramid and is fully professionalized.

A virtual person staring at them probably would have done the trick. People engage with avatars for some strange reason and I probably could have predicted their outcomes to each of these approaches.
Perhaps. But within the context of gay rights it is the government that behaved improperly. Society bundled behaviour and innate characteristics into a single thing. That was wrong, and it is important to highlight that.

Of course in a post homophobic world the distinction is rather irrelevant. It makes no difference to anyone if homosexuality is innate, or just a set of chosen behaviours. Why would it matter either way? But for a while it was necessary to remind people that you don't have any choice about being gay, or about having gay relationships. That claim was a response to homophobia, not something rooted in science of philosophy
If you're curious why:

Income before taxes is not "income before taxes net of transfer payments." (It can't be, because one of the most salient transfer payments in the US, the EITC, is administered through the tax system.)

One might assume that poverty is sticky and therefore the bottom 20% of earners is relatively constant, but while poverty might be sticky "low income in a year" is not sticky on a year-to-year or decade-to-decade basis.

Many people in the lowest 20% for income were middle class N years ago and still are. They're spending out of their savings faster than their savings throw off interest/dividends. That's OK; their retirement math mandates it. ("Wait, how can you afford a mortgage on $10k a year of inc... oooooh.")

Some folks also deal with substantial income volatility on a year-to-year basis. Relevantly to many HNers, there are a variety of structures in which business owners hit the bottom 20% in formative/bad years.
The problem with DNA is that the theoretical random match probability gets thrown at the jury (like one in whatever billion), while in reality the error rate is dominated by lab error (like one in a hundred). But judges tend to exclude evidence of lab error rates (I guess to avoid people thinking the other way, that DNA isn't reliable).

Well, what do you think how long astronauts on the ISS will survive if we stop all flights to the ISS?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_biology ?

Overall, I don't really understand what you are trying to say?! That there is no damage we could possibly be doing to ecosystems that couldn't trivially be undone? That we don't really need any ecosystems, but could just trivially transition to completely artificial food production? That planting 10s of millions of trees will bring back extinct life forms that had yet-undiscovered secrets in them that we could have used to derive new materials or drugs?
nice idea, very simple. the admin interface should be enhanced.
Drug trafficking funds human trafficking. It's not the other way around. Removing profit incentives from bad behavior is an easy way to improve human behavior. Our murder rates plunged after prohibition was repealed, for example.

And human trafficking is for a purpose, take away it's incentives and it mostly goes away too. Legalizing prostitution eliminates a big incentive for human trafficking. Rationalizing immigration laws eliminates most of the rest.

This is an important point. I think 1Password folks need to hear that for a lot of customers, it will never be the case. There are many of us that consider managing the storage of our vaults as a fundamental safety feature of a password manager and will never cede control over that function to the company behind our password manager. Moreover, subscription pricing is a no-go for many of us. The possibility that a company will cease operations and the software will cease to function makes this kind of pricing a non-starter for something as crucial as password management. I'm perfectly happy to continue paying for major releases and will always upgrade provided the added features are compelling. But every version I purchase should work in perpetuity and should come with bug fixes, especially if vulnerabilities in the product are found. I don't think I'm being unreasonable.

I love 1Password, but I hate their move towards being a service. There are alternatives that, while possibly not as good/polished, will allow me to continue to manage the password storage the way that I currently do and will continue to work, as is, for as long as I choose to use the software. Using them is a compromise I can make. Having a subscription password manager is not a compromise I can make.
Difference is, you're not a programmer professionally. "Carpenter" strictly implies a profession--I think. Native English speakers feel free to correct me :)

In my head, "carpenter" just has a different connotation. But it's not very clear-cut. I used to DJ a lot at parties during my university years, was I "a DJ"? I prepare dinner for 8-10 guests regularly, am I "a cook"?

It kind of depends, I guess. I've drawn a large number of cartoons in my life, but (with few exceptions) never sold them for money. I wouldn't call myself a cartoonist (mainly because I don't do it as much recently), but I would definitely not call myself "not a cartoonist" :) That would be selling myself short :)

I'm not a programmer professionally either. But then, I do have a CS degree, and I still write code almost daily. I'm a programmer.

I also generally don't feel that the fact if you do something professionally (for money) should really count as "what you do" (identity, in a sense), as this comic illustrates: http://i.imgur.com/MNJzpqL.jpg (I didn't draw this, btw)
Ask HN: Do I keep bootstrapped cash in personal or business account (pre-rev)
My two other founders and I are each coughing up 3k for our app to get to market.

We're incorporating next month before launch (Gust or Clerky).

It's going to be allocated to customer acquisition, operational fees, incorporation, etc.

We're not going to see revenue for a while.

Question:

For tax purposes I am wondering: should I keep it in our company bank account, or should we keep most of it in our personal bank accounts and pay off the CC through the company as we incur costs? Is there even a difference? I'd assume marginal if any, but want to be sure.

They are deprecating local vaults.

Given that vaults contain secrets, and data shared with third parties is not secret in any legally compelling way, that effectively neuters the product.

Diversity: The Key to Staying on Top
Generally speaking, security solutions have (at least) two goals that are often at odds with each other: (a) Minimize the number of trusted third parties / components, (b) stay out of the way from a usability perspective.

Most negative comments here imply that 1password severely compromised (a), to the point of making it useless, in exchange for incremental-to-zero gains in (b). For most people here, using a third-party sync service is probably more convenient than avoiding whatever mass-market-cloud-thing 1password is trying to move everyone to.

(I haven't used 1password, but am planning to switch to some other password manager, and this article just knocked 1p off my list of candidates).
this seems trivial to do, couldn't you extract the public key from the private key, encrypt something with this extracted key and see if the decrypted message matches?
Have you put much energy into making sure that Enpass is secure? Do you know who's reviewed it, and what their review looked like?

It bothers me when people point to other password managers as alternatives to 1Password because of packaging and pricing issues. It's easy to find other commercial password managers that have attractive packaging and pricing! That's not the hard part!

I happen to like 1Password as a product, but that's not why I recommend it.
They mention relationships. Not size.
So it doesnt seem to matter if you have many or few relationships. Just that you are happy with them.
I obviously don't know anything regarding your mom's condition, but SAH (a form of hemorrhagic stroke) by itself can have very complete recovery. The real question is how much ischemic stroke there was with it. If the answer is "none", then, if she survives (scary caveat, obviously), then her recovery could be very very good. Having said that, ischemic injury is common (as is herniation, which is similarly permanent and very very dangerous). I hope she comes through it ok.

Quoted below is from Pale Moon roadmap [0]

Long-term plans

Our long-term plans for Pale Moon involve (potentially) moving our browser to the UXP (Unified XUL Platform) that is currently being worked on alongside the browser. This will at its earliest be somewhere in 2018.

Plug-ins

Pale Moon supports NPAPI plug-ins. Unlike Firefox, we will not be deprecating or removing support for these kinds of plug-ins. This means that you will be able to continue using your media, authentication, and other plug-ins in Pale Moon like Flash, Silverlight, bank-authenticators or networking plug-ins for specific purposes.

The point is that gansterism will become a smaller part of the economy, have "less funding" if you want to think of it that way.

Gangsterism is funded by various econmic oppornities which for one reason or another are illegal. Some things like assasination and extortion need to be illegal by their very nature.

But by passing laws that make new things illegal, we increase the amount of resources available to fund criminalality.
2) is easy, but leads to two queries no matter what, because you have to do a whereIn

3) here's the code:

const EagerQL = (info, allowed) => {
let fields =
info.operation.selectionSet.selections[0].selectionSet.selections;
return fields
.map(field => field.name.value)
.filter(field => allowed.includes(field));
};

// in a resolver
user(_, args, context, info) {
let eagers = EagerQL(info);
console.log(eagers);
// ['posts']
}

This will give you fields that were queried for so you can do a big join. Hope this helps someone :P

Big organized crime groups often have access to exactly the kind of logistics required to manufacture and smuggle drugs across large distances.

Yea and attacking peoples fine as long as you threaten them first.
This is the difference between how it should be, and how it is. When you solve something simply and pragmatically it won't impress the non-technical or semi-technical manager. They also want to see microservices, bells and whistles.

Believe it or not for many managers "I refactored something and fixed the problem in an hour" isn't very desirable. When you go to your next interviewer they won't be impressed either, though they absolutely should be.

People have the right to control what goes in their bodies. I don't have the ability to see if my weed is "violence free", because drug prohibition took that away. You can't hold me responsible for violence among marijuana cartels if you don't give me a clean source for my marijuana.

It's not a semantic argument. It's important to make it plain, before having a reasoned discussion, that there are legal drugs that people use every day but wrongly categorizes as "not drugs." Alcohol, nicotine, and caffeine being the main culprits. Food, exercise, and social media also cause experience-shifting changes in neurotransmitters (the drugs that are always mediating your experience). It's important to get this straight before lumping things that are illegal into a poorly-conceived category.

I'm sorry to nitpick and I mostly agree with you, but similar to a casino game that favors the house, if you are lucky and quit while you're ahead, you can avoid capture.
