I think we can save Rams' list by stipulating the following: design is an activity. If you don't need to innovate, you don't need design, you should be following prescribed/conventional practices. The final rule underlines the sentiment: whenever you engage in design, you should only do as much of it (innovation) as you need.

Architects, for example, are always dealing with slightly unique or novel spatial circumstances, which is why they are considered designers. Building identical suburban houses from a pattern book is not design -- and it's not innovative.

I think Rams' thoughts do all make sense if seen in this light.
What do identity fraud statutes cover (NY, national, or otherwise)?
What does equivalence have to do with it, though?

1 USD is worth .87 Euro or 1.3 Euro (at any given time), where 1 feels like a magic number; but 1 USD is worth (right now) 6.6 Yuan or 113 Yen, where it's more obvious 1 is not a magic number.

So I'm confused by the belief that .001 or .00001 is closer or further than where something 'should' be. How do we reach the conclusion that the value should be this thing or not this thing?
So what is the "specific law or legal authority" that makes it illegal?
I had Comcast for a few years at my old house and bought my own modem. It was a no brainer, $80 for a modem vs $10/month to rent theirs. Well after about 2 years I got a bill saying that I owed them for rental of the modem. I called and fought with them. Even when I cancelled my service they kept asking for their modem back. Luckily, my new house is in an area that has Metronet fiber internet. I've switched and use them for internet and TV and love it. I've had zero issues so far (though it has only been 7 months)
this is where you should buy your own DOCSIS3.0 modem which is a dumb L2 bridge with no NAT, routing or wifi functionality:

I was a part-time web developer at the time. I remember that PostgreSQL didn't run on Windows. Most hosting providers also only supported MySQL. Back then I used [Xampp](https://www.apachefriends.org/index.html) to do all my development on Windows.
Computers Will Think Differently from Humans, Letting Them Outperform Us
"Packages" in homebrew are nothing more than Ruby install files called Formulas[1]. So using Github works really well for their use case and I don't think there is any thought of changing it. Updating homebrew, new formulas, etc, is nothing more than a `git pull`.

The parent comment suggests becoming a billionaire through a short. The people who bet long are likely leveraged to some extent, and if they have enough of a BTC portfolio to allow a short against them to make you a billionaire it's not unlikely that they just won't have the money to cover the bet.

We saw this prior to the Great Recession, and in the 1929 crash too. I'm ignoring the potential for a bank run to complicate matters, just sticking with counterparty risk which is easy to model.
That's not enough. Defaults are a powerful thing -- the vast majority of customers won't go through the process to disable it.
I got excited about Mill a couple months ago after watching some videos (I finally understood a little bit, after seeing their materials pop up for years). It's refreshing to see a design that crosses hardware/software boundaries rather than just hacking on one side of the fence.

But then I noticed that Mill is not an ISA but a family of ISAs? (Small, Medium, Large or something like that) They are hacking LLVM so that it knows about all of the ISAs.

But doesn't this cause a problem for say JIT compilers? (JVM, every major JavaScript engine) Every single JIT compiler has to know about 4 ISAs? I get that they are similar, but that seems onerous. Debugging tools have to know about them too. Even strace is coupled to the ISA. I think the costs may have been underestimated.

Anything that changes the hardware/software boundary is already risky because you have to change two things at once. But if you're going to do that, I would think it should be a single stable interface?

In other words I think the coupling between their own compiler tech and the hardware is too close. Not everything is a portable C program. There's still people running Fortran, not to mention non-LLVM based compilers like Go.
I think this is cool, but -

"...it is crucial that users take direct peer-to-peer trust relationships seriously"

I personally doubt that most people will take it that seriously, especially if they're new and in a position where they find it difficult to make transactions. There's also the issue that inevitably, even if people 'trust' someone else currency, that person acts deceivingly and is malicious. How does the network protect against a certain number of 'broken' trusted links?
Apparently they don't think that competition in the market will keep prices as low as possible. Increases in circulating money supply do not automatically turn into inflation/increased prices. Relative to the money supply, when producers can meet the increase in demand, there will be little inflation. I'd argue we have an excess in global production capacity that can quickly be mobilized to accommodate a large increase in demand, thus leaving inflation modest.
It's the thing everybody fled to once MySQL got Oraclized. It was always a bit more superior in terms of features and reliability but once Larry Ellison appeared with his whip people really started running.
When I used to drink regular coffee seriously, I degraded from making it with a Melita drip cup using Cafe Grumpy’s beans or something like that to a Keurig machine.
Not the op but connecting through SSH works great in my experience and is very straight forward in the UI. I feel like updates are pretty frequent as well. I also love that it saves all my queries unlike psequel.
Sorry, I don't believe proclaiming "Bitcoin is a bubble" is a "well-measured criticism" of Bitcoin. And people taking time out of their day to make such baseless claims are coming out of the woodwork lately.

When the iPod was announced, people frequently commented on purchasing apple stock, or how you can't go wrong purchasing apple. No one was calling apple a bubble when taxi drivers were making those statements.

Sorry for speaking up against people who make baseless bubble claims.
Is it possible that a rise in geospatial applications is partly a driver of Postgres’s rise in popularity? PostGIS seems to be the best option for storing geospatial data in an RDBMS (open source or otherwise).

But any humor that one does not like can be branded as some type of racism, bigotry, sexism, chauvinism, profanity and so on. So in a way this quote is correct. What liberal would consider as humor conservatives might not and vice versa.
This isn't a new, or original, thought. It's an allusion to an ongoing conversation within what is considered mainstream comedy about why we (as a culture) seemingly have a plethora of mainstream liberal comedians (especially political comedians), but a dearth of conservative ones.

And, this conversation is an extremely important one to have. It relates deeply to the whole "fake news" obsession that seems to have taken hold of particular strains of "conservatism" (the right).

"Facebook can never be a tool that you use as needed and everything has to be a 1984 horrorshow"

Oh, please. My circle of friends uses it extensively to plan gatherings and such because it's fairly easy and most everyone has it. Most of us don't post very much or spend all that much time on the platform. I'm glad that you and all of the others who have managed to see beyond the seventh veil by deleting Facebook are doing well by it, and I also have my dislikes and reservations about the platform, but most of those are easily assuaged by simply not posting and browsing the news feed.
I think the fact that car companies are not tech UI/UX design experts is the reason infotainment systems are so terrible these days. They can design a nice interior, but designing a system that looks nice, works well, and can play nice with iOS/Android/Windows/etc isn't their forte.

Lightning doesn't scale with users. It can handle 1 million transactions between 2 people in seconds, but 2 transactions between a million people would take weeks.
Perhaps I'm odd, but I'm not going to go past ES5. ES5 feels like the last version of the JavaScript language that is true to itself ("As in, pure WAT?" No, I mean not huge).

When I want more capabilities, I will select from the many wonderful compile-to-JS languages that are a genuine departure.

>And what's more magical than to pull some Latin American station out of thin air?

Pulling the entirety of Wikipedia and Youtube out of thin air?

That being said, I totally agree - I love books, my manual film camera, dream of owning a typewriter (but have no use for it) and love records.
Not an economist, but wouldn't competition keep prices lower? Also, inflation happens when supply cannot meet demand. More money in circulation does not increase prices until it starts bumping into production capacity limits.
> there is no 'app' for the kind of satisfaction you get from receiving a painstakingly type-written letter with a bunch of stuff crossed out or a morse code message just for you. ... And what's more magical than to pull some Latin American station out of thin air?

Obviously, I don't know whether you experienced these kinds of things the first time around, or how long you've been experiencing them this time around, but I'm wondering how how much of the satisfaction or magic you're feeling is due to novelty? Will those feelings stick around at that same level of strength?

I didn't experience e-mail till I was 17 (in 1994), and I didn't have a mobile phone (let alone smart phone) until several years later. I remember receiving letters... and certainly the tangibility is cool, but I didn't think it was that great. I don't see why pulling that station out of thin air is any more special than being able to listen to foreign radio stations or podcasts on the internet today.

Be careful of that though. I recently went to the ER for "chest pain" it wasn't a heart attack, and I had every reason to believe before I went that it was just a listed side effect of my medication. However since it was chest pain I couldn't ignore it. This is not unusual, ~60% of ER chest pain visits are nothing. (I suspect that increasing that number to 75% would be a good thing as it would mean a few more people come in when it is something)
There's a fantastic quote from Orwell about Hitler's rise that points out that the appeal of fascism was struggle and conflict itself. I'l see if I can find it, but it is something I wonder about from a sociological standpoint: When we have our basic needs met, how do we deal with the alienation that results? If we don't deal with that alienation, can we expect someone who promises adversity to arise?

Being poor, lacking healthcare, experiencing violence, etc are all terrible things, but overcoming them often strongly informs our identities.

If we manage, through politics and technology, to achieve a safe, post-scarcity society with all basic needs met, will we have to deal with a collective identity crisis (or millions of individual crises) and if so, how do we deal with it?

Found the Orwell quote:

“[Hitler] has grasped the falsity of the hedonistic attitude to life. Nearly all western thought since the last war, certainly all “progressive” thought, has assumed tacitly that human beings desire nothing beyond ease, security, and avoidance of pain. In such a view of life there is no room, for instance, for patriotism and the military virtues. Hitler, because in his own joyless mind he feels it with exceptional strength, knows that human beings don’t only want comfort, safety, short working-hours, hygiene, birth-control and, in general, common sense; they also, at least intermittently, want struggle and self-sacrifice, not to mention drums, flag and loyalty-parades ... Whereas Socialism, and even capitalism in a grudging way, have said to people “I offer you a good time,” Hitler has said to them “I offer you struggle, danger and death,” and as a result a whole nation flings itself at his feet”
If the only good thing to come out of a Trump presidency is that we actually go back to the moon, it would all have been worth it.
This says that the most successful people in the the business-software space are people who have domain knowledge and software skills, and write software in their domain. And those people do quite well, dominating their various industries (Lexis-Nexis for law, for example)
It's getting so we can't trust anyone in the data stream at all--not only is the NSA hoovering up all our data, but now the ISPs are doing all kinds of shenanigans, too.
Is Gizmodo seriously not a banned source on HN? Its banned on practically every major subreddit, as were all of the former Gawker properties.
Well, if you don't have Windows, that still doesn't help. And if you don't //want// Windows or Visual Studio, that doesn't help either ;-)
I think there's only a hair's breadth separating "shut the border to preserve culture" and "shut the border to preserve our ethnicity" considering how frequently rhetoric for the former slips into the latter.

To be sure, a large group of immigrants can change the host culture (for instance, in American English we have any number of Yiddish-derived words that, in my experience, are not really commonly understood by English people), but I think the idea that the result has to be a homogenized, corporate, ersatz culture is wrong. Japan itself, as it exists today, is clearly the result of tremendous, unmistakable foreign influence -- most notably, but hardly exclusively, Tang Dynasty China and post-war America.

Ultimately, I guess you could say that as a person married to a foreign woman of a different ethnicity I have some personal investment in the opposite ideal.
I've been using brew for years and wasn't aware that it was using google analytics at all. It may be clearly documented, but they're not doing much to ensure users know about it.

External keylogger will likely be detected by antivirus sowtware and HP drivers are probably whitelisted.

There are also ATMs and other exchanges to tap. Cashing out a large sum is nearly impossible.

If you have millions worth of BTC, it's better to just auction them off at a discount to a large buyer.

I always thought the $10,000 reporting rule was for physical cash deposits. Is it also triggered when you, say, transfer $10,000 from your online brokerage account to your checking account?
Note I'm not making any claims as to the health benefits/costs or existence of them, just to highlight the main justification for the tax: to limit the environmental impact caused by raising lifestock & growing feed for them.
Building your own is educational and maybe even fun (to a point), but it's not going to magically fix these kinds of issues. Most if not all frameworks support navigation and custom framework XYZ probably isn't going to do a better job.

The fact that some sites do a bad job at navigation, performance, or whatever really seems orthogonal to me. We can also come up with numerous examples of "classic" sites that are slow, bloated, and have a bad UX.

It'd be cool if NASA would be allowed to plan anything long-term. I've watched every President of my lifetime nix the space exploration program of his predecessor in favor of a new one.

Maybe we need lifetime appointments for NASA administrators like we do for the Supreme Court, because right now it's impossible to do anything that takes more than a decade.
The Walking Dead Villain Watch Season 8, Episode 8: How It’s Gotta Be
This is great. I feel like too many people who are interested in the field just get completely overwhelmed. They start and do some little piddly crap, and see absolutely no use for what they've done and figure it must be 1000x harder to actually accomplish something worth doing. So they give up.

Isn’t that back to the Fordian “faster horse”, though? Or perhaps that falls apart with the glued-in battery, and instead it’s “you can have a faster horse, but we have to take the legs off and install wheels”.

Or maybe analogies just don’t work, and it’s “you want it thin and waterproof? We can do that, but we’re gluing the battery in.” No, customers didn’t ask for such batteries, but customers did ask for other things that require a permanently installed battery.
I didn't know that you can use Visual Studio on anything that is not Windows. I'll try to install it.

Edit: Looks like you need Visual Studio Community for this SDK which Microsoft only has a Windows version.
Something like 99% of all the cars purchased new are spec'd by dealers, not by customers. So the problem really wouldn't be solved by allowing you to select some combination of features for a totally unique vehicle. You're just going to walk onto the lot anyway and pick from what's there.
Yeah, the first thing I would do is see a tax specialist and make sure I am setting aside enough to may my dues before I went on any sprees.
Once, I made an SPA for an interview with plain JS and handlebars for templating. It was for a react team and I was not big into react but wanted to show I get how all the pieces fit together, but still be able to understand and debug what I had written for them. Instead of being in unfamiliar territory with react debugging. Anyhoo, the switch-statement router based on changes in the URL hash was just about where they couldn't take it anymore. They couldn't see why I hadn't used some library for the routing. I had genuine flubs aside from that in the interview and definitely wasn't right for them, but it was funny to see heads quizzically turn to the side during that portion. I was like "well, what a weird little detail to get hung up on".
I would lay some of this at the feet of the fad for object-relational mapping, too.

Trying to deal with object/relational impedance by sticking an object-oriented API in front of the database, and then using that to shoehorn OO ways of organizing and accessing data into an RDBMS, is a great way to place an upper bound on what kind of performance you can get out of the database. It also makes (what should be) routine schema migrations much more painful than they need to be. I think that that can explain a lot of the perceived success people were seeing with many document stores.
I can literally go do those things right now and meet people, I've made plenty of connections doing exactly those things. Not everyone you try to talk to will be into conversing with random folks, but some will, and that's fine. If you're too afraid to just talk to people, I don't know what people think an app is going to do to help.
It'll be interesting to see how this plays out; as we've seen before, there's often a long path from the president providing a directive like this and actually getting traction and accomplishing the mission.

Still, this is exciting news for space exploration. I've always wondered why everyone is so eager to jump directly to Mars and the asteroid belt when we've still done relatively little on the moon.

FantomCoin (FCN): The Cryptocurrency That Grew More Than 400% in a Month
I don't think it's being hated on because HN is closed-minded, I think it's being hated on because it's half-baked. After Bob and Alice get done exchanging coins to prove the concept, where would they actually spend them? Why would any business accept these coins? Why would anyone ever exchange a dollar for any quantity of them?

I like UBI schemes and I like novel cryptocurrencies but either I'm missing something big or this one is still at the stoned-dorm-room-conversation stage.

Not quite. They also supply precompiled binaries nowadays, one version of each supported macOS version. They have a CI infrastructure that continuously builds precompiled binaries for all formulas, for all supported macOS versions.
No. You can build one without using a framework that someone else wrote, but you will inevitably end up with an ad hoc framework of your own design.

UBI is capitalistic. Provide an income based on ownership of a citizen stock title. Let individuals decide best how to invest and spend it, and not let government control how it gets spent.
If what you are doing is not innovative, it's not (good) design. It might be valuable but it's something else.

The comments here that disagree with Rams' first rule seem to me to be putting the cart before the horse and assuming that Rams is offering a prescriptive list for would-be designers. I think he's just describing what he thinks constitutes good design. It is not an injunction to innovate: it is an observation that "design" which does not innovate is inconsequential.
I imagine so, as that point it would be a matter of taste.
In LA, there's plenty of people who are vegan, non-smoking yoga instructors who are glued to their phones.

To be clear: You can sell 100 btc today for USD. Coinbase will hold your USD (and the balance is insured). They will limit your withdraws to 10k, however. To take out more faster, you'll need to contact them and speak with a human. None of this seems unreasonable.
