Loads have commented rightly on the simplicity (nay elegance) of the solution. I can't fault the use of JQuery even if I have never been a fan. I also agree that sometimes just building something as opposed to searching for someone else's solution is the right choice. Especially when you look at some of the foolish 'kata' time people spend when they could practice on something business-useful like this.

Most of all, to see the thought process played out is really important. This article would make great reading for juniors to help see how more experienced people solve problems. Particularly as it is not a patronising 'tutorial' (draw three circles, then draw an owl) but working through a clear scenario.

Many many "private" people successfully sue Forbes to get off their annual "kidnap and ransom" list.

> And also, don't wish for a "trade barrier" for this purpose, import substitution has been demonstrated over and over again to be really just awful policy.

That's a very different kind of "trade barrier" than is being discussed here.

The barrier being thrown up here is in fact not so much about trade but about privacy values. I see that as a very different thing, if a business wants to draw the line for privacy ethics elsewhere, but that line happens to be subject to regulations which reflect our values, then that is indeed a barrier, but I don't see much wrong with it. Unless you want to argue that US values on privacy are somehow more right than the ones we decide on in the EU.
Yep, I also did the same and accidentally clicked on the "Pay Instantly with Paypal" button -- which indeed did what it said it would.

The latter hopefully/clearly. But I don't consider it activism to uniformly apply your interpretation of the law. The activism I was concerned about is narrow application in this supposedly "exceptional" circumstance. Is that a "third form" or is it an extension of the first except they carved it out for someone else?
Salon says that they will only use your unused CPU cycles, not sure how true is that, but their site appears equally responsive with the Crypto mining option enabled + adblock vs just adblock.

Well, lawyers can be and have been disbarred for behaving unethically - but that does depend on a few fundamentals: lawyers can't legally practice law without a license, ethics are well-defined, and there are hearings to determine claims of unethical behavior. To apply "ethics" to software, we'd have to have (at least) all three of these in place.
Would you really be certain a commercial company buisness is going to care about correctly packaging for a flavor of linux?
Some companies wil do this, even more so if they work with FOSS and linux.
But in general, especially for companies on the proprietary train, I wouldn't be so sure.

If skype is in the base set of packages, I'd expect debian to require proper packaging. But if this is in some third party package, there are no such guarantees.

That said, maybe some third party package that just installs the normal (auto-updating) version into /opt or /usr/local might be an option. It is better than having no installer, and shouldn't break too much of your package manager.
Proper clean-up on uninstall is the only real issue I can think of.

> All of the people who were interviewed admitted that there was sexist behavior at the company ... But the women who worked there don't seem bothered by it.

Yeah, that's what it sounds like the whole truth is - there were serious problems, and those who worked at the company weren't bothered by it. #NotNolan focuses on the former, Glasgow on the latter, but the whole truth is a combination of the two. (And the Kotaku article attempts to convey both of those.)

So I'm particularly curious if there were women who weren't okay with the culture, felt uncomfortable or threatened, and left. Selecting for people who worked somewhere for a long time is naturally going to select for people who didn't have serious problems with the work culture / convinced themselves they were okay with it.
The SSH on a nonstandard port thing... I do it so I know if I see a failed login attempt, it's someone who is trying a lot harder than the average attacker and something I should investigate more fully.
Really? My perception is that it's going the other way; the people who care whether someone else draws on their skin tend to be older generations on the way out.

Could be a sampling bias, an old friend's sister is a tattoo artist in Pittsburgh and I know numerous people with tattoos, but I don't see them going anywhere. Quite the opposite, I think they'll become more common in more segments of the population.

What the article takes pains to point out though was that despite competing gas technology, Haber not only invented but actively persuaded the German army to use it as an instrument of war. He did so in direct contravention not only to the rules of engagement at the time, but even the moral objections of his wife. This laid the groundwork for scientists in Nazi Germany to not only contribute their knowledge to war's death machine without remorse, but to feel compelled to do so as a moral good.
re: redacting names from Forbes lists and the like - and if it did? What is the point of said lists beyond a congratulatory pat on the back for those who want it?

In this particular case, there is precedence where winning has been detrimental to the winners specifically for the sake of winning (scams, murders, etc.). I think that substantially outweighs the "need" for transparency of the lottery system to seem above board. Just continue to highlight where the ticket was sold and that it was a John/Jane Doe unless the person wants to opt into disclosing identity and call it a day.

There's a principle on HN that I'd like to find a way to convince the community of more fully: if you think you know someone's work better than they do, consider what you might be missing. Do you really imagine that we haven't thought of this? or care about the issue? or might it just possibly be more complex than you make out?

By making it easier to change the official winner future people might suffer much more if it becomes easier to challenge an award.

Just as a practical matter, people are more likely to litigate an award _before_ the award is disbursed. "Dumb" rules that require an entity to disburse funds to a specific named person contingent upon some simple formality have actually arisen because more robust rules that carefully balance interests and facts (including fraud) can create too much litigation. Those more robust rules are important to keep, but sometimes simply deferring a challenge until after disbursement can cut down on the amount and overall cost of litigation. For one thing it completely removes one of the 3 parties; in this case the agency administering the lottery.

For example, there are rules (legislative and court made law) for things like life insurance policies and bank accounts that require the entities disbursing the funds to pay directly to a named beneficiary, even if ownership of those funds could be and actually is being challenged in, say, probate court. And you can't circumvent the rules by asking a court to change the named beneficiary; that would defeat the whole purpose of the rule, and courts normally won't do that even if they know that, ultimately, the challenger will ultimately be given the funds.

That's the question here, whether the rules being challenged here are the kind of rules intended to prevent litigation that ropes in the agency administering the lottery. If so and the court makes an exception here, it would be difficult if not impossible to prevent other scenarios where challengers try to force the agency to change the name of the winner rather than directly suing the winner after disbursement. The former is often less costly for the challenger and could easily invite more litigation that challenges rightful ownership of a lottery ticket.

Ask HN: How can a hobby CS/tech writer accept donations?
I occassionally write about the things I learn and publish this on my web page. A large portion of why is because I want to remember later, but on top of that I spend a nontrivial amount of time cleaning it up, formatting it and making it generally palatable. I do this because I believe everyone should have access to as much knowledge as possible.

However, as I get ever busier, I can no longer justify spending as much time editing content for publishing. It feels sad that I have this huge pile of notes and no means to publish them.

A fraction of my content is relatively popular, and while I have thought about trying advertising to fund my editing, there are two reasons I have ultimately decided against it: a) I want to keep providing /distraction-free/ content, and b) I want to openly support readers who choose to block tracking cookies etc, and afaik no ad network wants that.

So someone suggested I provide an easy way to donate. What are my options here? I only know of

- Paypal
- Patreon
- Bitcoin address (? is this even an option?)
I have a lot of DRM-free Mobi files. Do you just mean that .mobi are typically shipped with DRM? Because the same is true for ePUB too.

Facebook, Google, you name it - they don't care about you, but once your submission on HN gathers enough traction, your problem magically disappears. That's ridiculous.
All of it went to good causes imho. :)
I have a dissenting opinion to this and if you don't want to play by the rules of a game then you shouldn't play. The whole point of the rule is so that the State can advertise that someone won to make more participants in the lottery.
Nokia has been the timeliest about pushing out updates too, beating Google to the punch by a few weeks for the December Android security patches recently. Realistically, the Nokia 6 will probably have modern Android updates longer than any of the Nexus or Pixel line.

What you don't realize are that your arguments here are actually anti-noncryptocurrency.

Transactions done only in the cryptocurrency have no such disadvantages, at all. Those are all issues with conversion to and from fiat, and thus arguments against fiat.

Nolan Bushnell was forced out of Atari in 1978. How long should he be responsible for their culture? Will we blame the White House culture's issues on Barack Obama in 2056? This seems to be pushing it.

Also why does anyone care what the culture of Atari is today? Look at their website https://www.atari.com . They are NOT a force in the gaming industry. No one looks to them to set expectations of behavior. They basically only exist to port classic implementations of ancient games onto new hardware. If there core offering is nostalgia, I wouldn't be surprised if there office culture is a little behind the times.

This feels like the a take down piece on the shitty culture at my local gamestop. It might not disagree that Atari culture sucks, but I don't understand why anyone should care.

Disclaimer: Nolan Bushnell was briefly my neighbor. He was a super shitty neighbor and his construction workers parked on my lawn. In case he reads this... all the neighbors still don't like you 15 years later. Should I write on article about it to expose him?
I'm not sure what the compelling public interest is in knowing the name of the person who won the lottery. I suppose there's some argument for transparency to better protect against, say, relatives of lottery officials regularly winning. But I presume there are other safeguards in place to check that things are run on the up and up.

The state gets their substantial cut--both through the lottery itself and through taxes--either way. Without having looked into the history of lottery practices, I'm pretty unconvinced that winners need to be outed to collect their winnings.

Well, no. It would mostly be feminists, whose objections to exactly the kind of casual sexism in the workplace described here were quite strong in the 1970s.

Church-going conservatives mostly turned a blind eye to this kind of stuff, especially when the men in positions of power running it were themselves church-going conservatives. And they still do. Or -- then and now -- they go further, and say that men's tendency to behave in this way is an inherent part of the divinely ordained difference in nature between men and women, and women who wish to be tolerated participating in the fundamentally male institution of work outside the home should just accept it.

They did pay, but yes, nothing is completely risk-free. The risk of a lottery winner losing their lump sum to mismanagement, fraud, etc. is still a lot higher than the risk of a state going belly-up, although maybe Illinois will be the one to change that.

This assumes you trust your government to actually award it to someone and you trust the ones running the lottery that who it was awarded to happened actually by chance. Because you'll never be able to investigate either without making the information available to someone outside the government (and even then, do you trust an "independent" auditor?). Transparency in government actions has value sometimes, even at the detriment of individuals. But it's not at all costs and I do agree a balance could be found between the public's right to know and scrutinize and a person's right to privacy.

>We should ask our judges not to legislate from the bench

Why not? This is a core facet of their job.

The tug of war in law between flexibility and certainty is nothing new.

In this case you've state the outcome should be either all entitled to anonymity or all restricted from anonymity. Why are those the only two options?

Say sociological research shows: 1) people conceal lottery earnings from spouses in the context of divorce with tremendous regularity, and 2) people who obtain lottery earnings are 10x more likely to be killed by distant, financially-at-risk relatives. Should a lottery winner with 3 violent felons with debts in his family be dealt with in the same manner as an upper middle class winner in the middle of a divorce?

This is why our judges get to tinker with our rules. Because real life has edge cases.
While making no statements either way on these particular allegations, a few notes:

> Activists expressed prior desire to bring the #MeToo movement to the video game industry.

I'm not sure why this is highlighted as a bad thing. People should be free to speak up about these sorts of thing in any industry, and there's not going to be any industry totally free of incidents.

> No one who has worked with Nolan Bushnell has complained of any impropriety.

As we've seen with Weinstein, some abusers have decades of misbehavior they've managed to successfully cover up with NDAs, legal threats, and other forms of coercion.

> Several past employees, including women, have come forward to speak in Bushnell’s defense.

Again, frequently seen in cases of abusers. People spoke in defense of Weinstein, too. Trump trots out female friends and employees. Some settlements require the victims to issue a statement that they're retracting the claims. etc.
I've seen all those criticisms applied to every feminist, maybe even every activist. This is just one long ad hominem attack on people whose views you don't like.

Alas, this flag only prevents video that has sound from auto-playing. It’s the inadequate option that my earlier comment was referring to.

Here’s more:
https://www.chromium.org/audio-video/autoplay

Quoting the blog post, Google’s decision that ”Muted autoplay is always allowed” is the problem. If any other Chrome users wondered why videos now auto-play without sound (even with this option set), at least based on the relatively minimal docs about this flag, this is why.
