Your first sentence is a claim I wasn’t making.

“friend” implies more that just knowing someone – there’s some common cause, attraction, etc. which separates friends from mere acquaintances. Maybe she used the word incorrectly but it really reads like she treats this as something like an unpopular political view or that obnoxious proselytizing vegan who keeps trying to convert people at Thanksgiving. This is consistent with her pattern of defending and minimizing weev: he’s not a neo-Nazi, just a troll; he’s just an asshole; he’s no hero but many of our heroes wouldn’t stand up to scrutiny either; etc.

People who know people with offensive views tend not to do that. They might still talk to someone, especially family, but they don’t defend that person’s beliefs. That racist uncle might not be completely banned but he’s told not to say anything, etc.

Your comparison to vegans is interesting because of how poorly it fits: vegans do not go around calling for violence against other people. Vegans don’t say that entire races or religions should be exterminated. Most of the vegans I know don’t even try to push their beliefs on others – they may talk about it if you want but, being decent people, they’re not going to walk around shouting “meat is murder” at you. That seems several levels below a guy who hounds people offline (remember Norton soft-peddling her friends attacking Kathy Sierra?) and has a swastika tatto with the beliefs to back it up.
So, what's gross profit look like? Edit: My mistake. Already said it.

How to Capture Leads Smarter with Your Sales CRM
Not all private data is stored for commercial reasons. People themselves want to store their lives, make use of advancement in IT and improve their lives. Now what about those data ? If its stored in a computer connected to internet then its at the risk of data breaches. Its even easier as a typical user is not capable nor can he detect such attacks (see botneting toasters).

So if the rationale for GDPR to reduce data breaches or to deny private data to future rouge govt, then it fails. Private data will still exist even if its not commercialzed. Its irrelevent who control it (user or company) as long as its connected to internet, there is risk of data breaches.

Unless you propose to go back to storing actual photos in actual albums. ITT im not sure.
This is cool!

A few weeks ago I found out about Bloomberg BUnit 4[0] (I was looking at their keyboards and got distracted).

I think we need something similar for consumers (as in, I don't want to end up spending 24k for a terminal just for a BUnit).

Basically it's a device that has a light sensor, a fingerprint reader and a code generator - all used to authenticate the user to Bloomberg services.

The closest I've gotten is using something like Trezor[1] or Ledger S Nano[2] (no fingerprint reader/light sensor - but it's protected via a passcode).

It's just one more level of protection on top of a hardware key (username + password + hardware key (protected by a password))

+++Waze has better traffic detection and alternate routing than GM and AM, in my opinion, which is the reason I use it over them.

--Waze needs a way to mark your parking spot any time you arrive anywhere. Sometimes it's there, sometimes it's not, like when you stop somewhere other than the routed destination.

+++The arrival time estimate is excellent.

--The pop-up ads are TRULY OBNOXIOUS and basically stupid as others have pointed out.

+++The police AND STOPLIGHT CAMERA warnings are helpful.

--The ride sharing button is way too prominent and a waste of valuable UI territory.

--The hazard reporting requires too many clicks. I just noticed the "OK WAZE" feature and haven't had a chance to use it yet.

+++The alternate routing view, with the ability to see multiple alternate routes and their estimated trip times is excellent, too.

That’s great! Do you ever physically handle any product?
if they are physically coupled then yes, but if they are independent it likely would be more flexible and you could create and close spaces with smaller speed adjustments. Surely someone has already modeled this?

The biggest problem I see with approaches like this is how it's going to get going while they have to share roads with individual traffic. Street infrastructure isn't designed for long convoys that have to stick together, otherwise something like this would be a good start e.g. for trucking: Lead truck can even be human-driven, and a group of trucks in automatic mode follows as a closed unit while their drivers rest.

True their support has been quite helpful and pretty amazing. A dev reached out to me days after the issue was resolved for feedback and advice, and it wasn't a cookie cutter template. He actually wrote a 300 word letter to me, including asking for my feedback on a new feature they were working on.

I couldn't believe a company as big as AWS would seek out opinion of some guy just posting on their forum.
Speaking as a former HVAC/mechanical maintenance engineer, technology like Nest is obscenely underdeveloped. Commercial HVAC systems like Liebert dont get 5-6 strikes at the plate to figure out how to avoid shutting off a customers heat in the dead of winter. Screw up the HVAC in a nursing home or elementary school, and you can kill people.

Honeywell's commercial offering should be the gold standard here in my opinion. Its fully ipv6 and ipv4, and relies on time tested probes and monitors to determine what the hell is going on. You cant force it to short-cycle motors until they burn up, and it cant be forced offline from the control interface if environmental conditions are outside a certain range (Desert summer, for example.) Januaries update even included EC25519 for console and PFS support for the web interface. Best of all, if something is egregiously screwed up in the system, it failsafes to a simple thermostat or pulls settings from a cluster.

Some of the decline in elephant population is attributable with competition with humans - we grow crops, elephants like to eat them.

@dang why do you allow and encourage people to spread bald-faced off-topic lies?
Yes it does - but I still think for an effective program you'd want at least the 'Enterprise' plan, which starts at 12k a year.

If you don't have developer resources dedicated to your team, you may find yourself unable to run some tests, and you'd have to upgrade all the way to 'Enterprise' on the 'Conversion Optimization Platform' to get a Dedicated Account Manager, who would, in theory, help you tackle more advanced topics and test designs.

Any way you slice it - as soon as you hit moderately complex A/B testing the price goes up quite a bit.

My guess would be that distributed internet will never work.

Sure for popular content like Google.com. or the top 1000 of YouTube will work. But the rest will always crawl to a stand still, since the content will always be on a far away or slow node...
That is a fair question, but I still consider it very low likelihood and pretty low impact. Sure, you can make an involved setup harassing me via my thermostat, but I would be amazed (and amused) if it ever happened to me.

I am not a public figure, who would do such a thing? A friend as a prank -- s/he would probably tell me soon enough. An enemy -- it is a really involved way for some sort of hassle -- slashing car tires or breaking windows overnight is just as easy (or easier) and much more painful.
Units alert. Megawatt per day makes no sense. Perhaps you meant a megawatt-hour per day? Or, if driven for (say) 10 hours, 100kW.

For reference, the average family car engine can generate on the order of 75kW, so 100kW for a truck is quite good, I think.
Programming and Coding Stickers for iMessage
It also depends on the student/teacher match. I took piano for many years as a child. Unfortunately, I had a teacher who was firmly an advocate of the Suzuki method. The Suzuki method is a good method for some students that highly emphasizes precision. Songs are played over and over again until they are rigidly precise. I do not necessarily have an objection to this in principle, but for myself, I have a very small "twitch" in me that is normally wildly subclinical, but makes it very difficult for me to hold a rigidly steady beat for more than a minute or two without a twitch showing up. Even by the standards of music this normally wouldn't mean much, I never even noticed it playing trombone in band, even marching band, but in the Suzuki program it meant I was stuck playing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star in a variety of rhythms for what looms in my memory as years. I don't know how long it actually was, but it was way too long; by the time I moved on, I could only play sheet music in C, a crippling blow for a pianist.

Or, so I thought. A couple of years after I stopped formal lessons, I started composing on keyboard, and was deeply shocked to discover that when I was doing my own thing, I had no problem whatsoever playing in the key of my choice. It turns out that if you play enough scales for a given key, you can play in that key just fine.

Nevertheless I never did develop the ability to play sheet music in arbitrary keys without a lot of work constantly going into remembering the key.

I would have done a lot better with a teacher that figured out the Suzuki method was a poor match for me. Or if I had had enough knowledge to figure that out myself.
We have a similar practice in Chinese culture, after a woman gives birth, they must take baths with ginger for a few weeks. My mother in-law actually spent hours cutting up enough ginger for my wife.

If you have parents that are willing to go above and beyond for their child, a healthy child is sure to follow.
Yes, that's exactly my point. For maybe ten years there has been huge efforts thanks to genetic diagnosis to promote health with esthetic standard. Serious breeders test their reproducers against the common diseases in their breed and so on. It works rather well.

As for production animals it has been going on for even longer, especially in cattle. And we've got good perfomance there too on mesurable metrics.
The reason constitutions are relatively stable in the west is that people take them seriously and expect violations to be punished. You're more likely to violate the constitution if you think the people won't demand recourse. The constitutional tradition is really the more significant factor. Sadly, ours seems to be weakening.

They can do it without any cognitive dissonance by either classifying certain persons as non-citizens (hence not granted those rights) or by raising some unclear limit to these rights (so those who break national unity, "harmony" or some such aren't covered).

An example outside of China: Venezuela's Maduro, paying attention to international sensibilities, now classifies opposition to him and his government as "hate speech".

If you try to do this, Uber/Lyft will throw money bags at regulators to ensure such a regulation never passes.

Uber is already known for working with city authorities to reduce the required number of parking spaces, which in theory helps increase Uber's rides, but also leads to more congestion due to people driving around looking for parking.

the domain is not needed to access the content as the content is actually one the STEEM blockchain.

1. the content text and meta data is on the STEEM blockchain
2. Dtube is storing the videos etc on IPFS

so by reading the STEEM blockchain, we can get the content even without DTUBE.

Dtube is an app, just another one to talk to the STEEM blockchain and they make revenue by taking a small part of the revenue from the content creators.

> Online dating also seems to have increased interracial dating.

Anecdotal but as an Asian male this hasn’t been the case for me at all. I posted my stats on HN a few months ago but from thousands of profile interactions I’ve had practically zero mutual interest from non-Asians. That’s not an exaggeration either, I literally have a zero percent approval rate from white women, the majority ethnicity in my current city.

Every single Asian male friend that I know of didn’t meet their non-Asian SO online dating, but met them in person from work/school/group events. Likewise, every non-Asian female I’ve ever dated I met offline first.
I don't see a direct/private message feature here on HN, but I see your email in the about section of your profile. I will follow up with you when I get the script together over the next week or so.

Anyone ambitious and competent enough to gain power would. That is the wisdom of the Constitution: balancing checks on power instead of relying on the “right” leader. Based on that, I would amend your question to: would they use the law against others in power who seek to silence dissidents?

Some people think that mathematics can also be seen as a language. I use this categorization quite frequently nowadays and it really simplifies my work a lot. By not using a more elaborate mathematical notation, you basically are able explain mathematical concepts to people who are not "speaking math" like you would explain the work of Montesquieu to anyone not speaking french: It takes more time and effort, and francophone readers of Montesquieu will hate you for doing it. ;)
It reminds me very much of 1998/1999. 9 out of 10 "startups" at that point were outright scams and they barely even tried to hide it.

A good old website? No.

We don't need the domain, you can take the https://github.com/dtube/production repository, ipfs add -r it on ipfs, and use DTube this way -> https://ipfs.io/ipfs/QmRWPnY8h7Eg4v74GtKT6UBy2kUAN139QwYPUrg...

What is decentralised:

- The website (its fully static and can be hosted on ipfs)

- The video storage (IPFS)

- The account system / commenting / voting / subscribing
(when you do that, it directly creates the transaction on the blockchain)

What isnt decentralised:

- The upload endpoints (upldr*.d.tube). You can legitimately avoid it if you have a local IPFS node running and you add files yourself, however it's really not convenient for users.

- The search endpoint (asksteem.com). This is used for the search, tags browsing, and related videos.

- Server side rendering stuff for robots only (we enabled that recently)
