This is a very emotion-based response to a rational post. I understand you are in the profession and it is important to you, but that shouldn't mean

> This is a terrible idea for so many reasons

So list some of the reasons, rather than just dismiss the idea.

> I am a first responder and I would gladly carry insurance if I was compensated for it.

So now it sounds like it isn't a terrible idea at all and you agree with it if compensated. The take away I get from this is "first responders are paid too little to be held responsible for their actions." Lots of professions are paid very little and are still held responsible for intentionally reckless or malicious behavior.

> I would now like to be compensated for the exposure to disease, injury, environmental toxins, and more.

Sure that's fine as well, but against has no bearing on a person being responsible for their actions. Again it sounds like a justification of "first responders don't have to be responsible for their actions because xyz other concern". And shouldn't your union be negotiating for compensation for these things?

To me it sounds like exactly a viable solution. First responders must carry insurance for extremely negligent or malicious behavior, and should have an increase in salary across the board to cover average insurance cost.

Both of those say "open source code". It's not a phrase like "open source" alone. The emphasis is on "source code" not on "open source".

While it sounds pretty brain-dead to put "open" in front of anything, to the point that it seems like the most natural thing for it, most people did not use this term and there was very little widespread understanding of what "open source" meant. If it wasn't for OSI, we'd still be saying a bunch of disjointed things instead of being universally aware of something called "open source".

Every time I have this discussion, someone comes along and thinks, "wait a minute, there's no way that OSI coined that term", but yes, they did. This is probably a Mandela effect.

It is not plain added entropy. You can't multiply the complexity (or add the entropy) because there is a signal when the attack makes a partial guess (he gets the openssh prompt).

The added entropy is a bit harder to calculate, but unless your password has 16 bits of entropy¹, it will round pretty well to zero.

1 - Why TF would you run a ssh server that accepts passwords anyway? But nearly everybody I have seen that thinks changing the port is a good form of protection also sees no problem on accepting them.

When DDG shows an ad, is there no tracking involved in that? For example, if I were to click on an ad (after turning my ad blocker off), does the destination site not get any information about me or specifically what I searched for?
It's a noble goal, some thoughts on the license.

I really wish it made clear that the license was irrevocable. I think the understanding in the community is that once you give permission for software to be used under a license you shouldn't go back on that, but other licenses, like Apache, make that clear.

The phrase "Any modification to the software submitted to the authors may be incorporated into the software under the terms of this license." could be worded better. I think Apache nails this, "Unless You explicitly state otherwise, any Contribution intentionally submitted for inclusion in the Work by You to the Licensor shall be under the terms and conditions of this License, without any additional terms or conditions". This gives some wiggle room for submissions under different license, if they are explicitly called out.
Probably, I haven't really seen much other value so far in their fork. I would love to see more effort go into PHK's ntimed.

Anyway, it's a very handy interface and easy to play around with inside about:blank to prototype things.

More so, it is common to want to go to more than one place in an outing. Most of the time when I am searching for the "nearest" X, I'm really searching for the X that is least out of the way between points A and B.

> I've taken fire before for suggesting that any job should go into a database, but when you're using this sort of pattern with an ACID-compliant store like Postgres it is so convenient.

+1 to in database queues that are implemented correctly. The sanity of transactional consistency of enqueuing alone is worth it. I've used similar patterns as a staging area for many years.

This also allows for transactionally consistent error handling as well. If a job is repeatedly failing you can transactionally remove it from the main queue and add it to a dead letter queue.
Huh, that's king of a weird decision, but I guess it is probably going to be near the USB connectors on the board, anyways. I guess that probably means it's falling back to a normal SPI interface instead of the faster quad-SPI MMC interface? Maybe they don't want to spend one of their chip's QSPI peripherals on storage expansion.
Well it still maintains some geographic info by keeping the direction. This helps for instance in identifying clusters of places, so user can think: "If I go that way there a N other places nearby too". Also the cardinal directions are still preserved, which help to interface with user's preexisting geographic knowelege.

Those were also just a few examples. Companies negotiate reciprocal agreements for baskets of patents all the time. Who knows what's in the basket? My point was that they have circumstances that don't apply to any other company, and there's no way to know what they are. Either the license itself, as written, works for you or it doesn't.

Yes, but there is now incentive to weed out the few officers that are the source of all the complaints. The ones that give good officers a bad name and are a walking lawsuit waiting to happen.

Noone (neither police nor citizens) want them on the force as they make everyone's life more difficult. But right now there is zero incentive to remove them, and only a union fighting to back them no matter what.

I'm assuming if you have a stream of 20-30+ excessive force complaints against you over the past two years, based on past behavior you are very likely to have them in the future and be the cause of a terrible situation leading to a lawsuit.

Politics in this context is heavily influenced for the need to simplify concepts into more binary states. The problem is that nature isn't binary.

For example, something is a "disorder" has historical been used as a bit more value neutral word for variance, but the more it is used the more it has become synonymous with disease. Similar for "medical condition". For example, we don't call left handed people to have some form of mental disorder, as that would imply today that there is some form of problem rather than simple variance. It also don't match at all those people who are ambidexterity.

If we found a genetic marker for handedness, it would likely also not be called a genetic disorder. If the variance cause additional problem, then the additional problems would be the disorder and the handedness a simple side effect.

One could argue that gender is more important than handedness, but then we enter values and believes into the mix and that would definitely be political in nature.
But you may want to add a compiler flag, or change the path of the binary. If the binary is called in multiple places it does make sense to constantize it.

You can work around the GOPATH issue by using Docker. If you build go within a Docker container, you can structure the folder however you like and it won't affect the host.

The only downside is that your text editor might stop offering some features when editing a go file, since the import paths might not point to the actual location.
Interesting pricing: Base $5/month for 250GB storage and 1TB outbound traffic. No cost for requests. Additional storage is $0.02/GB/month and additional outbound traffic is $0.01/GB.

Compared to BackBlaze B2: $0.005/GB/month for storage and $0.02/GB for traffic, plus tiered API call fees (see https://www.backblaze.com/b2/cloud-storage-pricing.html)

So Spaces is better for serving assets (lower traffic cost) and B2 is better for archiving data (lower storage cost).
Announcing Sourcegraph 2.0
I'm not sure "centrist" is really a thing because I'm not sure voters fall on a simple left/right spectrum. I thought this was especially clear in 2016 with strong populist sentiments giving strong showings in both the Republican (Trump) and Democratic (Sanders) parties.

In other words, many forms of populism are neither Republican nor Democrat, does that make them part of the "sensible center"?

EDIT: Do downvoters care to explain their objections?
> Do I need to refer to every red sox fan

"Fan" is short for "fanatic" (noun) and not, for example, "fanatical" (adjective), so this statement seems to advance the point you are purporting to refute.

> Also, the semantics change by using "the gays" as opposed to just "gays".

Who says that?

I hear, "gay people", "our gay brothers and sisters", "the gay community", "the LGBTQ community", etc. But I only hear "the gays" from people who use it in an uninformed and disparaging way.

So again, you're making the point you're trying to refute.

This tweet from Equifax to a website spoofing the correct website has been up since 6pm last night:

They grew out of that before they realized there's little value in writing a new license when there are already so many to chose from.

I was just starting out when Google Code announced it would only host projects that used an approved license, and Google had a very short list of approved licenses. Sourceforge was more flexible than that, but they still discouraged people from striking out on their own.

It took me a while, but I was eventually grateful to Google for being so effective at hitting the brakes. Opensource.org currently lists 83 approved licenses. Fsf.org has a similar list. For a new license to be valuable to me it has to be measurably better than each of those 83 licenses in some way that matters to me. Otherwise it's an annoyance, at best.
(FYI mods this is a repost of my original submission: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15294218)

Ideally Equifax will listen and either move it to equifax.com, or take down the site altogether. Since the real version seems to be answering randomly, they may as well just shut the whole thing down.

But seeing as they're a massive, bumbling, bureaucratic organization, there's probably a non-zero change they'll try to sue me instead.

I completely agree. We are using Angular 1.x at my day job and my team and I are feeling the pain. Manual DOM manipulation compared to React's virtual DOM feels like what it must have used to feel like comparing jQuery to Angular 1.

Perhaps frameworks don't rust in the sense that they deteriorate in terms of capabilities over time. But that doesn't mean that they don't become obsolete. Especially when you're building a product and trying to stay competitive, all the while all the the innovation surrounding a framework has packed up and left for a nicer camp.

It's a pretty good attempt at what you're asking (it's college level chemistry with fantastic instructors, for free, online)

It's worse than that. Even in the households with vehicles, there will be members who are unable to use them due to age or disability. So at the very least they will be dependent on another family member for basic getting-around-town capabilities. Together with households that are too poor to afford a vehicle, about 31% of the US population doesn't have access to a car. (Note that is inclusive of non-driving children -- but IMHO they should be able to use the city, too.)

This is why public transport and good urban design are so frigging important. Imagine if some other demographic of this size were forced to be dependent on others for going shopping, going to the doctor's, etc. It would be an outrage, because, in truth, it is a outrage.
To be clear, I'm not an Equifax customer. I have no business with them, creditors do. I have little to no recourse against them. I can't stop using them. Remember that we are not their customers, we're their product.

Or pass and enforce laws about yielding to pedestrians. The difference between Oregon (with some of the most pedestrian friendly laws that are actually enforced) and California (where I've watched cop cars slowly roll through crowded crosswalks) is pretty marked.
Please stop making new licenses. You do not need a new license, you need to understand how to use the existing ones and how they interact with one another.

The number of license interactions you need to mange on any project is the factorial of the number of licenses in the project. With even just 4 licenses (pretty easy when you're just trying to make it work), that's 24 sets of interactions. Just wait till you get to 7 licenses.

I'm acquainted with the general manager of a local hardware chain in my small town that used to run a gas station. The sense I have from talking to him is, the gas station shut down because 1. Kroger put in a gas station that nobody can compete with, and 2. they couldn't sell liquor (because they were across the street from the high school). The gas station also used to have a successful auto repair shop attached to it, so apparently the gas and liquor problems were severe enough that even the auto shop couldn't justify continuing to operate the location---though, I gather, the Kroger gas station was the straw that broke the camel's back.

Obviously this is just one gas station in one small town, but then that's probably all there is to this discussion.
