There are dozens of static generators, and frankly I don't think they're a great alternative. Put a cache in front of WP And you're done. Then when you want to do a redesign, you don't have to futz with dozens of static pages.

What's that? You've stored your content separately so that you can just regenerate the pages when changing site designs? It's a system for letting you manage your content separately from the rest of the mechanics or the site? The content files are stored on a journaled file system like EXT4 or NTFS? That's fantastic. It's just like a DB backed CMS that stores flat files for cache.

I'm not saying static page generators aren't useful, but I am saying that the difference between that and a cached wordpress install is virtually nil.
Yes, that is the sense in which I meant entitlement.
If your sense-impression of things as they are included the subatomic (ok, so these are either very energetic aliens, or very tiny ones) would you consider the concept of a 'thing' as rather odd? if you live embedded in fields, what is this one-ness? There is no one: there are only varying amounts of impressions of forces acting on you.

Maybe the Martin Gardiner book on the inherent polarity of the universe provides the basis for a categorical One: lets all align with our head|antenna|sense-unit|orifice-for-feeding pointing upward..
What you're saying was more or less the argument in favor of the Patriot Act's expanding of domestic intelligence gathering, fwiw.

And how'd it work out? Apparently not too well, if we're still seeing the same comments a decade later.
Is this really how people feel about HP?

I've always associated HP with printers — the LaserJet line specifically. I still use them for just about everything. They've always struck me as well built and reliable. Pretty good network/web UI. I've used some of their large formats too and those have been pretty nice.

Maybe I'm alone, but I'd trust HP to make a decent 3D printer.
Because, like most teams, we had certain resource constraints (time, money, datacenter space, employees, etc). The undertaking of a massive new project that puts greater-than-ever reliability demands on existing infrastructure that is properly sized for the existing tasks is a huge burden.
Don't get me wrong, I am not really arguing or trying to attach a moral label to whatever the side and convince you, but I am curious, perhaps there is an idea I can't get (I am a mediocre mind and didn't sleep well, that's possible). I feel like playing hide-and-seek trying to find it :-) Would you be so kind to confirm that you understand the rational (albeit questionable, possibly wrong, sure) side of my logic and try to explain if there are rational morality-free reasons other legality/justice/order (incl. preventing further market manipulations, unjustified profits and simple lie) to blow such a bubble up? I am just trying to view the situation from somewhat like a game theory point of view.

Previous thread only once mentions iOS 11 in nested comments which I’d find more interesting to hear about because I don’t see many people complaining about it. Far more people are active on iOS 11 than High Sierra too. I personally have no issues with it beyond any other iOS.

Indeed! But there's more, you know? You're not just relying on your local ISP.

You're relying on every single local, national, and international ISP between client and server. In many places, at least one of those is going to be owned outright by a government that might take a keen interest in what bits it transports. You're also relying on a variety of DNS providers and other services.

The number of services that have to cooperate for you to use any given website is staggering. And they're all capricious and vulnerable to legal coercion.
Surely cicero was capable of speaking demotic, and writing Katharevousa?

The implication that Shakspear spoke in meter feels false. Poets rhyme for amusement, but can also just "say" pass the salt and mean it non-ironically.

You can ask for the nearest coffee shop in Latin without using ciceronian style, and its good latin. Spending the mental energy to think it may be going beyond the pale.
I didn't gleam that from the original comment either.

Crazy fun stuff though.
Have you tried using alternative podcast apps? Like Overcast? I never used Apple’s podcast app from the get go so I can’t comment on it. It being bad and/or getting worse isn’t too surprising and definitely one reason I never tried it.

Yes, precisely the sort of information an audit would reveal. Curious, then, that despite their repeated pledges for robust auditing they first declared they'd engaged a firm to do those audits that didn't actually do audits, then terminated their relationship with the second, legitimate auditor.
Legislators in the US can, and more states are, passing laws against revenge porn so I don't think that's a good example.

I do think fraudsters will attempt to use the GDPR to erase their fraud histories. Companies will need to carefully delineate what data is used as a legitimate interest vs consent bases to make sure they can continue to use fraud histories in their anti-fraud efforts.

Apple seems to have taken the direction of optimizing their experience to create beginners before supporting advanced users or pros.

There'e way more customers who are beginners, than advanced or expert users present.. until they all become more skilled.

Apple's products, and software aim to just work in the most basic way for the greatest number of people. Anything that is too far our of the range for basic users is either killed (Server.App), or sufficiently neutered.

If we start looking through the lens of creating customers who start out as beginners with Apple and grow with them...

Apple makes the iPhone so easy, it's like a feature phone. The tough App Store rules - to ensure the most stable experience for the majority of beginner and basic users.

Apple could design AppleTV off the charts - but we still have those largely basic menus, so basic that anyone can use an AppleTV easier than a cable box.

iPad Pro's could support mice for advanced users to use that amazing horsepower? No, let's go out of our way to remove it.

Mac Mini updates? Delay it until the average home is ready to have a new iHomeAutomationHub server once.

iMac Pro Updates? Probably have to sell them for $18K ea to start making it worthwhile.

Underpowered Macbooks, or Macbooks Airs? Perfect for selling lots beginners to intermediates.

MacOS, too, has fallen behind in it's UI innovation and polish. Apple's revenue largely comes from mobile, so rumors of MacOS going the way of a consistent iOS interface might not be too crazy.

What to do while the world levels up their digital skills?

We can wait, try to manage it ourselves, or switch to currently more innovative gear at the expense of other things.

MacOS has so many basic UI tweaks to install that one has to buy an app like Bartender to hide the icons. There is lots of work completed under the hood, no doublt, but not in a day to day way that we touch or use.

The main reason I'm still on Sierra is I can't handle the 4-6 month trauma of having a current OS like High Sierra that beyond the forced APFS snags, appears flaky. This is after experiencing every upgrade breaking with Panther, Tiger, leopard, Lion, Mavericks, El Capitan. Only Sierra was smooth.

It's just easier to wait to buy a mid cycle Macbook pro with the OS rattlesnakes having bit everyone else for a few years first.
That does not seem like much of a burden, at all.

All of that information is required knowledge for the business to operate and production to continue. You can't make something if you don't even know what materials you need to make it, nor if you don't know how to put it together.

In the case of extremely low production with hand-fitting the documented process may vary some from the actual process but it shouldn't be so significant that one product does not even resemble another.
The top rate before was 39.6% for over 480k, over 480k now hits the 35% and 37% mark and that is a HUGE difference.

Let's only consider how that effects the top 1% and a rough estimate. Currently that's around 1.73M filers with an average income of 1.4M a year. Under the new tax rules the average 1% will save $40,000 over 480k (will obviously save more under 480k but not counting that). That totals out to be $692B in tax cuts over 10 years or in other words basically 70% of the tax cut deficit based on standard scoring and 138% based on dynamic scoring (obv not exact). So this could have been a revenue neutral tax cut even after a massive tax cut to everyone, just a slightly less of a tax cut to the top 1%.

In other words 70% of the tax plan deficit over the decade is coming from cuts from the top 1%. I would have preferred a different allocation that would have decreased their tax burdens but not by that much. Obviously this doesn't consider many smaller factors but it's a fairly accurate estimate.
If you truly have equality of choice in any system you will get equality of outcome. There's obviously outside factors at play.

"Those people" you mention say it's cultural, other people like you say it's... I don't know honestly...

It's ok. I appreciate your position and your reply, as well as your desire to defend good things.

I think it's important to note here that WordPress is a project, not a business or a company. I don't think Google is trying to break a community supported product that powers 24% of the web. Sure, build better doors and windows to their products. I don't see that as a bad thing. I happen to like Google, as do a large number of Internet publishers. Many of us will appreciate these efforts.
It's not as easy as you think to shed an identity and make a new one for fraud when the identity is linked to real-world ID in many jurisdictions.

The teen suicide issue is unrelated. Facts, such as news stories about fraud, are not the same thing as media, such as a porn video. Regulations can easily bifurcate between the two so its a false tradeoff. What is telling is that the regulators in Europe have chosen NOT to make this distinction. And in fact they have EXPLICITLY protected people's right to purge news stories about their fraud ... showing a disdain for making such a judgment in favor of information freedom.
Meh, I live in beautiful New England, certainly not in the middle of nowhere, and housing here is affordable. I paid under $200,000 for a 1,600 square foot house and there's cheaper options if I were aiming for more affordable. Mu parents live 200 miles away and their 1400 sqft house is worth around $115,000.

Pretty much anywhere outside a few areas is affordable.
Brian from Instapaper here, we originally wrote it that way, but it felt really weird and disjointed, especially if you weren't familiar with the entire history. Just wanted to keep it consistent, not really take credit for Marco's accomplishments.
With more and more functionality moving into software, is Munro or anyone else doing anything along these lines with the firmware and software in vehicles? Are manufacturers as interested in evaluating the process and design of their software as they are with the physical pieces of the vehicle? Do copyright and sometimes murky legalities around reverse engineering software prevent the equivalent teardown (disassembly) and analysis of software components?

Despite being known for kaizen processes implemented as Plan -> Do -> Check -> Act or 5 Whys, Toyota's issues with unintended acceleration were partly blamed on flaws and spaghetti code in the RTOS controlling their Electronic Throttle Control System in some models:

That's just one example. There's the CAN bus car hacking via OnStar and more examples out there. Would this kind of analysis help more than say, simply implementing better software development methodologies?
> There's no reason a PHP based site should take that long to load. It would seem that you are missing some caching settings, regenerating something every page load, or have something wrong with your server setup.

Out of the box settings, ugh.

Full second to parse jquery, 1/2 for jquery, 1/2 for jquery migrate. Something called wp-emoji-release.min.js is taking another 396 ms.

And this is after repeatedly visiting the page in my browser. I thought the browser was supposed to cache stuff? Heh.

Then again, according to Chrome, the page only took 1.4 seconds in total. I'm wondering where the remaining 4 seconds of me staring at an empty browser tab is coming from. :/

Then again, switching pages on my WordPress admin page takes ~6 seconds, so I think there is just a significant probability than my VPS has miserable performance.

Edit: Installing a caching plugin makes the page load not as horribly slow. It is at 3 seconds now, which is still 2 more than I'd like, but at least acceptable.
Fusion printers are even more expensive. You can only re-use the leftover powder so many times before it needs to be thrown out. The particles start to clump and melt making your prints less accurate.
It looks like it might be in the top 100 though. Considering these are changes per day, and the chart covers around 100 years or 25,000 trading days, this puts it in the top 0.4% of largest percentage daily losses. So, it does appear to be a significant losing day if 99.6% of such days are smaller in magnitude.
And if you install Lyft as well?
If it's "arbitrarily chosen", but the result is always the same regardless of order, what is the algorithm that decides?
Wordpress runs major league newspaper sites too. Not to disrespect the blogoverse, but there may be a direct efficiency statement for major time, ad revenue sources of daily news. Google may well be feeding the beast, to feed themselves, but not blogs per se: blogging s/w for news websites.

I don't GitHub, but here are some thoughts: you only need to disable ints when you mess with cr0 and cr3 and applying patches. There are apis in the kernel for that.

Basic block detection isn't easy. You CAN find branches in the block, and even patch them to work when you copy them elsewhere (you'll need this since most x86 branches are relative). There is provably NO 100% certain way to make sure no branch anywhere else targets those 12 bytes though.

You can use heuristics to almost-reliably guess though. If there is a "call", the instruction after it likely is a target of an indirect branch (ret). Also you'll have to disassemble the entire function (breadth first search till every traversal path hits a "ret") and see if any jumps to these 12 bytes exist. This will cover 99.99% of cases. The remaining 0.01% is VERY hard.
Apple Watch Series 3 is roughly equivalent to the original iPhone. It's a weird blindspot for all the Apple critics.

My singular and persistent disappointment remains iCloud. I still want seamless sync and handoff and backup and unlimited storage... That just works. That doesn't require me to do tech supp for my family members.

No one has cracked the ubiquitous computing nut, so maybe it's just a hard problem.
BMW certainly might:

> Plus, the engineers told me, the cost models are proven. Some manufactures, they said, actually hand their own parts to Munro asking them to use their model to see how close they can get to the actual cost of manufacture. Munro says their numbers always come very close, and that they’ve even been accused of having insider information. Munro isn’t just there to help engineers learn about how the competition designs and assembles its cars, it’s also there to help automakers—who really should be called “auto assemblers”—figure out if they’re getting ripped off by their parts suppliers. Knowing exactly how much it costs to build a wheel bearing, for example, can act as leverage for negotiation against a supplier of that part. At the same time, suppliers also go to Munro to learn. If, for example, one of their competitors is selling a part for what seems like impossibly too little, the supplier might ask Munro to tear it down and figure out how the competitor is saving cost.
I am more interested in reason behind why this happens. I have also experienced it my self but not sure why and if I should always go for the things I fear most.
Thinking about it, it probably won't cost that much more to officially support basic PCB printing in almost all their printers, right?
tl;dr: Instagram is significantly tightening up access to their platform. The existing API is being deprecated in favor of a heavier permissions based system, and functionality available to all today, will be restricted to medium-to-large businesses down the road.

This is relevant to the HN community: builders who have enjoyed access to Instagram will now be severely restricted, which will limit future applications.

Finally: this is probably not a huge surprise. LinkedIn did this a couple of years ago, and of course Facebook has been tightening up access for years.
If you read the article also have a look at the project this comes from. It's hard for me to place exactly where this lies between X and Wayland and regular WMs, but is is a pretty bold "I will do this all different" (or at least different than what the mainstream is going with) where the project is really creating something one can actually launch.

Which probably makes OPs opinion on questions such as this worthwhile to consider.

Seattle Says Facebook Is Violating City Campaign Finance Law
> The idea that exercising some control over the content on someone's network or application removed their various liability shields is also completely false

It doesn't break the liability shield because it's not being selectively enforced.

If YouTube deleted some porn but not others, this protection would no longer apply. Reddit is allowed to delete content that violates their ToS without needing to answer to anybody.
That line of questioning frequently appears in these arguments. I find it disingenuous because if I did pay extra towards my federal taxes, I still (after rounding) have inherited the same amount of future obligation and I should expect, as taxes are invariably raised in the future, that I would be expected to pay towards that future obligation as well.

Arguing that we should all collectively pay more does not require one to individually contribute at that higher rate, nor does arguing that we (including the proponent) should collectively pay more ring near as hollow as arguing that those other people should pay more.

Since this is presented without context, and there's a significant chance people will get the wrong idea, I'm going to say this directly:

The Mumps programming language is widely used in the medical field, but it has a justified bad reputation. If you choose the Mumps programming language for a new project (as opposed to maintenance of an existing project where you don't get to choose the language), this is professional malpractice, and that goes double if the project is in any way safety-critical.

You have been warned.
Dai estimated the distant galaxies contain 2,000 planets for every star. That means trillions of planets probably reside there, he said, consistent with the ratio of free-floating planets found in the Milky Way, which contains billions of planets.

Huh. Sometimes it creeps on my mind how big the universe is and that everything is meaningless, on large scale. How we are controlled by such mundane things and neural pathways that follow some useless pattern but are too strong for us to change by our own.

Oh well, guess I should get back to my drudgery.

I saw a few of those around, the price varies a lot. The ones targeted at making a landing pages with a signup form wanted a good deal of money per month (I don't recall exact numbers, well over $30 a month, I think one of them wanted $200 up front to get started). They typically include hosting as well, which sorta makes sense as soon as you add the least bit of interactive elements (e.g. form submissions), they want to make it super simple to get up and running.
