solution is easy to imagine and has been implemented before (I've seen it in a video game that I can't recall specifically). If an unanticipatable navigation element is activated less than ~.1 sec after appearing, ignore the command. human reaction latency means that that could not have been intended.

I don't recall if the click was sent to the now-obscured target or if it was just cancelled. either way, Apple could apply this to all notifications very easily.

One summer, during an outing, I remember trying to remove a tick with tweezers, leaving the head in and having to use a pen knife to remove it. At the time I did not (or ignored) about Lyme disease, so in my mind it do not warranted a trip to the doctor.

Reading all the comments on this thread make me glad I don't spend as much time as before in place where ticks are present.
The US wasn’t designed to be a country. It was designed to be a federation of sovereign states. But the constituent states often can’t practically exercise their sovereignty without being able to discriminate against other states. Voters in California can decide that they’re willing to bear the economic cost of stronger labor protections or higher minimum wages, but neighboring Nevada can easily capitalize on that to undercut Californian companies even in the Californian market.

That forces myriad issues to bubble up to the federal level, which was the exact opposite of the federal design. For example, say we didn’t have the Fair Labor Standards Act, which includes a federal ban on child labor. States could ban child labor within their borders, but that policy would be undermined by neighboring states who could flood the market with cheaper goods produced using child labor. In fact, Congress proposed a Constitutional amendment in the 1920s to ban child labor. In the 1930s, FDR’s threats to pack the Supreme Court resulted in a dramatic expansion in the view of the federal government’s commerce clause power, which obviated the need for an amendment and child labor protections were included in the FLSA in 1938.
Yeah, it is less like a high school drama, and more like buying a guaranteed tax revenue stream so large that it makes Goldman Sachs jealous.
There's some evidence that philosophy majors score pretty high on the GMAT (for graduate admissions to business school) and on the LSAT (for law school), as well as pretty good on the GRE Verbal and GRE Analytical Writing tests.

Less good at the GRE Quantitative Reasoning than all the science disciplines (and economics) but better than the rest of the arts and humanities subjects (and better than accounting, which is slightly worrying).

Why is this desirable?

IPFS nodes don't really rehost content for any substantial period of time (especially the gateway) so you're still stuck with some major problems:

1. You're still hosting off your IPFS node. This isn't worse, but it isn't better. You need to have a node and it needs to have connectivity.

2. IPNS resolution is glacial and it's a known issue without resolution currently. So any gateway trying to resolve your current version of the IPFS-hosted status page through a gateway using IPNS can often end up waiting seconds (sometimes even tens of seconds) for name resolution, giving the impression of a downed status page.

Sadly, IPFS is more of a decentralized presentation and perhaps caching framework. It doesn't really achieve the goal of decentralized storage until there is some reliable way to persist the data on the network beyond immediate use. Pinning services exist, but most seem quite expensive to me.
If you go look at the "design" documents for US municipalities, the various incorporation documents, you will see that they speak directly to abating taxes to incentivize development. Here's an example from 1898 (not sure if this charter is still in effect in the Baltimore):

https://books.google.com/books?id=UVuiQ5HKgqoC&lpg=PA152&ots...

So there are in fact legal mechanisms, deeply rooted in the laws of municipalities. The stuff you are claiming is foundational to making the system work is just wrong.

I didn't go digging for an example that would prove my point, I searched for a city I recalled competing for the HQ2 and went with the second one I searched (The first page of results for Austin didn't turn up an obvious document).
I find Windows trend to be quite odd, too. And that's really telling of an issue, because I'm still using my Windows Phone and desperately want more quality apps. However, when I move back to my desktop, I rarely use UWP apps--with the exception of a handful that sync with my phone, like podcasts or my budgeting app.

Even when I use my Surface, I rarely end up using the UWP apps because, as said, they're dumb. Even the Microsoft ones feel half-baked and lacking. I think Microsoft should have dumped more money into Research and tried to find a novel method for automatically handling different UI sizes without dumbing down the UI.

I like the idea of the Store, too, but I think instead of forcing all apps to this new interface, they could have created a new package format, like Mac's _.app_ directories, to allow one-click install distributions of classic Windows applications.
But without sufficient traffic you'll incur IPNS lookup penalties.
The role of larynx in cetacean sound production is still debated, but we do know that they posses at least 2 sound generating mechanisms that could work independently and simultaneously. It appears that right side phonic lip is involved in echolocation and pulsed sounds, the right one is involved in whistling. Two (maybe even 3, if larynx is indeed invoved too) sound producing mechanisms make their communication even more complex, since it greatly increases the sound combinations probabilities.

Many researchers have already done that, i.e. using video and audio for sound analysis, and here we are,60+ years later, still do not know the function of even a single call, apart, of course, from signature whistles and echolocation. This is a non-human communication system, 25 mln years in the making by creatures who rely on sounds in ways humans never will.

When we study cetaceans, we struggle to determine who produces the sound, who responds, even tagged animals are problematic, because the sound could be made by someone next to them. In large pelagic pods, it is a cacophony, they chat all the time and never shut up. It appears that at least in dolphins, whistles could be more of a long distance signals, but pulsed ones, like burst pulses, are more of a short distance signals, for those who are close by.

But make no mistake, some information is being transmitted, we know that. The Bastian experiment with all its flaws was first to demonstrate it,and it has been replicated too. Some researchers are not entirely convinced, but it is definitely a very interesting area to explore.

I am curious about this as well and would like the context if anyone has it.

As far as I could find, it seems that the interesting thing about Nvidia is that while they only make GPUs they've learned how to cross-market them across domains (data centers, AI, gaming, automotive) and to charge premiums according to each niche. So I think that while the products themselves have subtle differentiations, you more or less get access to each vertical from doing the same R&D for each chip generation. This may be too much a generalization, but it looks as though Nvidia has figured out how to create wildly different products out of the same GPUs and multiplies its revenue accordingly.
Whatever they make will be bought up by miners. Wait for the crash of cryptocurrency markets D:

I'm not a huge fan of The Verge and Vox, but this is clearly amoral - I'm not sure any reasonable argument could be made for involving someone in a sexual situation without their consent.

I'd expect the law to catch up soon, and that to happen after the issue is made more common once Reddit's non-consensual deepfakes goes more viral than it already has.

Edit: replying to the flagged response below, which I disagree with but which I think deserves a reply:

By immoral, I mean hurting other people without consent. I do not believe any activity that doesn't hurt other people is immoral, though I understand some people (orthodox religious people for example) do.

Someone masturbating to an image - a private mental image, or even a private image produced for their personal use with software - seems fine. But publishing a sexual image of someone else clearly does involve the person.

Any language (or tool for that matter) that you have to invest heavily in, and use for a while will produce a symptoms of "Stockholm Syndrome". Moreover, once you are hard pushed to switch from it to something else, withdrawal symptoms are quite pronounced too.

Go has its own share of idiosyncrasies, and it drives me nuts sometimes even more than C++ did, but these bursts of mental grind are less common and much shorter in comparison :). The arcane complexity of C++ (and tooling around it) is something that I don't miss at all.
Depends on target market, so ideally non-technical perception (enterprise budget). There is probably still time to do effective marketing that conveniently doesn't emphasize it but discreetly assuages any concerns.

However, I am hard pressed to find any sizable HN discussion that doesn't mention it? It's basically worrying about what shows up as downsides when Googling, since most potential customers are starting from zero.

Nah, it still requires ticking the "experimental" flag in advanced options. Sad that it's buried so far :(
IPNS records have an optional and user-configurable expiry time, but more importantly, they contain a sequence counter.

So unless an attacker can completely disconnect you from everybody else who's interested in a particular IPNS address (and in that case you're lost anyway), they can't hoodwink you into going back to an old version.

That’s only because your tax contribution is very small and you don’t have leverage. If 60% of the residents of a city leave, you can bet the city will quickly lower or remove taxes to try to attract more people.

That's how you drown. The feeling you get when you're running out of air is not because you are low on oxygen, it's because you have too much CO2. By hyperventilating you lower your CO2 levels to a point where you can run out of oxygen before you start to feel that suffocation response. Then you pass out underwater and quietly die before anyone realizes you're gone.

No offense, but comments like this just make me think philosophy is intellectual masturbation.
At the moment, common consensus is strong enough. There isn't anyone who has the precise combination of the discipline and foresight necessary to have a functioning space program at all, and the lack of discipline and foresight to not care at all about Kessler syndrome, and/or not be directly impacted by it. It would seem to me to require a contradictory level of long-term thinking and lack of long-term thinking.

If a rogue actor (in the parlance of the age) managed to put together enough of a space program that they could make a few launches, but felt they personally had no stake beyond that, they could try to deliberately trigger the Kessler catastrophe, but at the moment I'm not aware of anyone who is there. (Even the gulf between suborbital missiles and true orbit is fairly large.) And it would have to be a truly rogue actor, not merely one sponsored by a superpower who does have an interest in the orbital space staying useful, e.g., North Korea and their complicated relationship with China, so not a puppet of the US, China, Russia, the EU, etc.

What makes you say that? Neither is it inevitable, nor do people not care, as is evident by that literally every time an article using this term the wrong way is posted, people will post clarifications what the article is actually about and express their annoyance regarding the issue.

Clearly, people do actually care about others trying to coopt well-established language for their often fishy schemes.
I think the fact that this (and all macros with `babel-plugin-macros`) requires an explicit import helps keep it out of magic territory. You do have to become aware that the symbols transform the function/argument they're a part of, but this is only really new to JS devs. It's familiar in a bunch of other languages.

I documented how they work in this part[0] of the readme.

You're jumping from argument about something being "amoral" to the law - why? Thankfully, we don't expect the law to govern all this moral and immoral.

Also, you're calling this "involving someone in a sexual situation" - but said someone is not involved, only his or her image is. By that logic, masturbating to someone's publicly available photos should be made illegal to the exactly same extent.
But since the content can include timing and date information, it's pretty straightforward to work around this. IPFS bridges to HTTP, but is fundamentally a very different protocol that gives very different guarantees. Application developers need to recognize and mitigate these.
Great news! I hope AMD releases a reasonably priced Intel NUC equivalent with their new APU. In the same compact, businesslike case (without gamers' ridiculousness), with a couple 40gbps USB-C Thunderbolt 3 ports, powered by USB-C/PD cable.
Interesting cognitive dissonance.
Well, there's motivation on AMD's part, but they also have a value proposition that nobody else could have matched. They can provide both the CPU and GPU on one chip, which simplifies the console designs pretty dramatically. More compact, easier to cool, etc.

Intel graphics solutions were (and remain) sub-par, and Nvidia has no x86 solutions (and their ARM chips would have been underpowered).
First of all, that's just the title. The substance of the article is not in its title, it's in its content.

Second, even considering the title alone, it's a trivial phrase, that is not supposed to mean much aside that she is among the most popular public intellectuals in Britain. Nobody put out a love-o-meter and measured who the "most beloved intellectual" is with a precision to judge who is #1 or #5 or anything.

Lastly, the denotation "intellectual" here is not meant to be about the hard sciences, I'd say. They'd say "scientist" if that was the case.

It sounds like your argument is that their projects are very useful, but underfunded, so the FSF must be denied funding.

I am a recruiter (albeit for salespeople), and I think there are a few big value points that we provide, when we do our jobs right.

1: Filtering. The downside of the internet making it easy to apply for jobs is that the candidates that do apply, don't tend to be the candidates you want. If you put a job up on Monster / Indeed etc, you're going to get a lot of candidates who aren't remotely qualified for what you're looking for. There's a lot of sifting that needs to happen. If you're a hiring manager you don't want to spend 20 hours initially qualifying and disqualifying candidates, when you can spend 2-3 hours talking to the most qualified people.

2: Talent attraction. A good recruiter finds out what someone wants in their career and then matches them with an opportunity. This sort of discovery doesn't happen that well on the internet.

3: Candidate pipeline management: A lot of companies have stupid complicated interview processes and end up losing a lot of talent that way. If you aren't Google, you can't put people through that sort of thing (and even Google lose a lot of candidates like that).

By and large HN doesn't understand sales particularly well. Selling companies things for $XX,XXX - $XXX,XXX is that you aren't doing the greasy used car / insurance sell. A lot of enterprise is project management with multiple stakeholders. Permanent recruiting is a similar situation.
Most companies understandably don't like publishing a salary so the recruiter acts a filter on both sides.

I'm a hiring manager and having a firehose of applicants would fill me with dread. My company has tried various "hacker" recruitment sites and they are all terrible - in terms of candidates and the supposed tests they use to rank applicants.

Recruiters are expensive but so is my time, they are very much a necessary evil for the foreseeable future.
