This. My hope when I saw the Surface Pro 3 was that the middling eGPU (Thunderbolt 2) thing going on with Macbook Pros would eventually make its way to the Surface Pro line where the Surface pro essentially becomes a hub and it could be the tablet/gaming console-pc/desktop I had hoped.

At this point, I'm just waiting on an updated MacBook Pro 15in (ready to buy in again, but too far into the current MBP product cycle. Might as well wait it out) and that Sonnet box and calling it a day.
Most modern preservation plans are about offering even stronger economic incentive to locals than other development would allow.

Hi HN! Whenever I travel to a new city for work or fun, I like to read a book set in that place, or about that place, to set the mood and build a rapport with my new environment before I arrive. After a conversation with one of my friends, I realized that many frequent travelers do this, and thought I'd make a website to curate and collect "destination reads" -- novels, memoirs and other long-form works of fiction and creative non-fiction that capture the character and essence of a city.

I plan to add more cities over the next few weeks, and hope for nominations and contributions from the community. This is the first webapp I've ever built (I used Webflow) -- would love feedback on design, content, and anything else that I can improve!
I write software for a living too.

I have also directly experienced stuff that is not so easily explainable, and work with it regularly. No, I can't sense the magnetic fields like that so directly, though I know roughly how to develop skills like that.

I don't think whole area of consciousness and subtle energy is ever going to be scientifically valid. I think they touch on things that are replicable, but not objectively verifiable. There are very real lived experiences of those, and sometimes we can find foot prints left behind by people who walked that way. Generally, you won't know until you walk that way too.
Why I’m Building a TV for My Baby
This. I mentioned up above that I've always been a morning person along with most of my friends. But, I didn't grow up with a device attached to me. Most of my activities growing up were outside. Going to school early meant more daylight after school to play. Even on weekends I was up with the sun, and often earlier since the surf was typically better early. All spring and summer we would be up at ~4:30am to go fishing. Kids staring at devices all hours of the day has had an enormous impact on their lives that I'm not sure we fully understand yet.
If poor hunters poach, it is usually to feed their family. Many poachers are professional and make a lot of money for it(because of the risk if caught). Poor hunters usually don't have connections to international smuggling gangs, which is what you would need if you wanted to make money from exporting poached animals.
Generally speaking young children will tend to go to bed earlier and wake up earlier than their parents and adolescents will go to bed later and wake up later. It's true that electric lights and computer screens have exacerbated the problem of teenagers wanting to sleep in but they didn't cause them in the first place.
Telephone hold music is never going to sound that good, at least not if you are listening to it through the narrow bandwidth of a analog phone line or the highly compressed signals used for cellular and VoIP.
Intriguing. That koala sure looks welcoming...
That doesn't make sense. People don't learn about breaches from a single place. What could 1password possibly gain from this, even if they could somehow do it?
Oh, I'm sure he'll post it. 1Password is software that falls into the same interest area as those who care about password disclosures, hence this probably being a good partnership.

The moment 1Password is compromised and Troy "nothing to see here"'s it? People would turn on both products very quickly because they'd find out about the former as private users and when the latter didn't disclose it, it would lose credibility.
You are correct, their resolver is basically lying.

A better question is why telephone quality is bad in general. I assume it's a bandwidth issue related to the technological limitation when it was rolled out.

Whenever I do a FaceTime voice call I'm always shocked by the quality of the audio.
I'm often either:

a) surprised that processes that seemed futuristic or industrial are available to the average person at a reasonable price

or

b) surprised that others are surprised

I operate a 4kW laser cutter set up to cut metal. Once new customers realise how much product the machine can put out in an hour they understand that it isn't an expensive service, and that it is in fact almost always cheaper to have an item laser cut rather than do it themselves using any of the tools they have in their workshop.
I'm currently working with the worst manager and IT director of my ~25 year career. It's remarkable.

I wouldn't hire our Director to be a noob IT guy and the manager doesn't know how to manage anything, nor does he want to (just wants to program and be left alone to complain about the shitty BA).

All the while the C suite dbags keep trying to outsource everything to the tune of millions of dollars a year and it's failed for the last 12+ years running.

The business world is hilarious sometimes. My wife's state job is even worse though. Her boss essentially has no boss. Is an alcoholic so doesn't work 2-3 days a week. Constantly is micromanaging the dept but also misses critical deadlines (federal funding). While her coworkers rarely show up at all.

I don't know what happened to this world, but it's honestly as funny as it is sad now.

Actually it does. Why do we have so many cows and chickens? We like to kill and eat them and that provides incentives to raise them, provide for them, and protect them so that we can kill them.
The "obvious way" changes over time, as the language improves.
Is advertising really necessary? Most youtubers are making more money from donations than they are from ad revenue. Many of them also do paid promotions that pay better than youtube ads. The ad rate is really bad. And you can get demonetized for all sorts of random things that have nothing to do with politics

The bigger problem is network effects. If you don't post your videos on youtube, no one will ever see them.
Regardless of the partnering - why would you ever put in your passwords into a public website like this?

I'm not really sure what "owning your data" means here, in practice. If you're sharing it with other people / pods the best you can meaningfully say is that you own a copy of your data, as does anybody you share it with. In terms of privacy, I don't really see how this is better than Facebook.

I don't have an answer to your question. Broadcasting information while also wanting to keep it private is, as you say, a tricky problem.

I'm just going to go out there and say that Leadership isn't something that "people under 30" are going to be great at. This isn't new or "kids these days" this is life skills. It's the same reason you rarely see amazing writers who just finished the bachelors. Leadership is a skill that has to be cultivated just like anything else, that takes time.
I call that playing the "Wrong, Guess Again!" Game.
Plex is the easiest thing I’ve come across

Not open source and one must subscribe monthly or buy a lifetime deal (which I got in on for $99 on deal around the holidays a while back)

A Plex founder proclaimed they merely act as a intermediary between users and content stores, and know nothing about the content accessed via the software

After digging around and trying various open solutions, all poorly documented and flakey, I’ve been on Plex for 3 yrs and loving it
I actually just bought one last weekend. Haven't flow it yet, so I suppose I'll find out very soon!

I believe you that they're crazy loud, but I think the technology will improve and we'll figure out regulation, fly zones, etc.

Of course, this is all predicated on us agreeing as a society that we want this thing integrated into our communities. This want is unclear and I think that's the meat of the point you were making which is a fair one.
I believe the parent was suggesting that by bringing about a heightened awareness and respect for the continuity of history of classical music embodied by the violin (heck, that very same piece being played may have been first played on that same violin, in some cases), it (can) elevate both the reception of the audience, and, more importantly, the confidence, acuity, and sheer weight of emotional expression in a performer, in a way that a known reproduction never could.

The same effects are widely known (and disparaged) in wine tasting and other aesthetic fields, but are in my opinion somewhat misinterpreted. To make the point explicit, imagine you've been told that a steak has been aged for 40 days. They bring you into a room, blindfolded, sit you in front of this steak, and they convince you to smell it. It smells like cooked meat, alright, but also different. It's tangy, complex, dare I say a bit fungal? you begin to salivate, take a bite, and as you begin to chew they take off the blindfold. The steak is green. Disgusting! That complex fungal note deepens, sours. You interpret the flavors as barely-concealed rot, and spit out the meat, overwhelmed by a wave of nausea. Then they change the lighting in the room, and you realize it was all a trick of the light: the steak looks normal, your appetite returns, and you finish it off.

On the other side, imagine you're the chef at this very uniquely lit restaurant - and you're handed two cuts of meat to prepare. One of them is beautiful, perfectly marbled, grass-fed, and expensive. The other looks similar, but you know that it's corn-fed, from a factory farm, and artificially dyed to match the color of the other. Which do you think is going to bring out the greatest performance in the chef?
Though I agree with the article, and can appreciate that somebody just "checking out Serverless" (I'm assuming you were also new to Node), it just takes a little bit of awareness when installing packages.

It took a while to learn this lesson, but it pm;u tales a few seconds in the process of deciding if you want to use a package, to check out it's dependencies, I also check out the git page and license. Is it active, is it open-source, does it have far too many dependencies, is it in regular use.

https://www.npmjs.com/package/serverless

That's serverless. I was surprised to see it uses graphql as a default, and looking at graphql, how many dependencies does it have? Just one, which has no more. So that chain ends quite quickly.

It doesn't take long looking at the dependencies to see that the same packages get used again and again throughout the community. So you'll find you won't keep going down this path once you are comfortable with the packages.

Having said all of that, it is also good practice to look at the source of a package, and decide if you could do it better and easier yourself. It is amazing how many packages are only a few lines of code, and fairly unnecessary.
Read the E-Myth. Great book about management.

I read the original, here's the newer one:

https://www.amazon.com/Myth-Revisited-Small-Businesses-About...
"The consistency of results from session to session showed that soloists could definitely distinguish one violin from another. However, the soloists seemed to prefer the new violins, the researchers report online today in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. In their lists of favorites, new violins outnumber old ones roughly 3-to-2, and the most popular violin by far was a new one, denoted N5. Musicians rated qualities of new instruments higher, too. And when it came to telling old violins from new, the soloists did no better than if they had simply guessed."

Extended your quote from the article.
I think of Arby's "ITS THE MEAT!" campaign to make it appear manly by slamming a sandwich in slow motion on the table. You can just do a google search for something like "Meat and Masculinity", "Meat and Toxic Masculinity", or "Meat Heads" to see what I'm getting at. Basically, there is the continued association between meat and masculinity when its mostly caged animals and you just go to the grocery and pick it up like any commodity.
We Are Coming for You
I love how smart and smug 90% of the HN crowd is, and I'm betting they are all under 30. The only time I run into that kind of snug certainty it's some 20-something that doesn't know jack.

Just know that there are a lot of us old dogs that truly enjoy destroying young folks _just_ _like_ _you_ because it's easy.

Whether it's on the field where your pathetic grip strength is the tip of your weakness ice-berg, or intellectually because you lack the experience and wisdom of years, we laugh at you all the time.

Trust me, some of us are laughing right now, just around the corner, a few seconds after you dropped whatever awesome wisdom you think you possess.

And know this - when we don't die off and leave the world for you to fuck up further, don't be surprised. We are the generation that is going to come for your jobs, we are going to eat you up. So don't move out of your parents basement!

And we'll be the generation to fix everything, it's pretty apparent how f-n clueless most of you are.

You are the clowns that pushed FaceBook to dominance after all, right?

The selfie generation full of snug clueless kids that are going to change the world for the worst, because all you know is your own little tiny selfish world

Keep making more social sites and taking selfies, trust me us old guys are laughing at you every single day and we are coming for you.
Please don't cross into personal swipes regardless of how wrong you think someone is.

Your comment after this one began with "You can fuck off if". The vector formed by these two points leads toward getting banned here. We've already had to ask you many times, and have cut you a ton of slack on this site.

Please use the site as intended—for intellectual curiosity; please don't be uncivil; and please don't use HN primarily for political or ideological battle. That's not too much to ask, and most users have no trouble getting there.

Since they will be continuing to honor existing redirects, do they gain anything by disallowing new redirects? If it is engineering effort they want to save, they can just stop developing new features, right?

This also glosses over the whole curropt government thing which prefaced the OPs argument above. Which is why its one of the few feasible means to help protect them.
Solutions (not all serious):

1. Paid trophy hunting where proceeds go towards reservations
2. Make giraffe burgers common and desirable so we have giraffe farms for manufacturing giraffe meat
3. Domesticate giraffes and make them the new dog/cat
4. Similar to #3, progressively breed smaller and smaller giraffes so they're hardier, take less space, and can eat anything. Make them the new deer (how deer are viewed in the US).

Best thing ANY founder can do is be self aware of their skills and find people who can do tasks better than them, and then promote those people.

There's no shame in being a founder and CTO while handing of the CEO role to someone with better management skills.
Ask HN: Which YC companies changed their ideas after being accepted?
Established organizations are the wrong place to effect change by employees. They are not democratic, they may love to give the impression to employees and the media but there is always a hierarchy and a powerful inner group that makes the decisions.

Debate is ok but anything real that threatens the powerbase will be quickly dispatched. The only person who can change Facebook is Zuckerburg and his inner cotorie or strict regulation. But this is not a problem limited to Facebook. Google is worse and there are others like Palantir and a pipeline of companies who would like to take their place.

Ethical behavior from individuals will only have an effect in smaller companies and early startups. When they do not get engineers who agree to unethical practices and when there is pushback they quickly realise they may need to rethink.

But software folks have postured on freedom and liberty endlessly but gone ahead and build some of the creepiest stalking infrastructure ever built without a care for fundamental human values or ethics and thus are not trusted anymore.

If you're interested in exploring an alternative to the "march of progress" way of looking at history, the Strauss-Howe generational model (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strauss%E2%80%93Howe_generatio...) is fun to contemplate.

To (over)simplify, it argues that history is less a straight line than a pendulum that swings back and forth between institutionalism and individualism. The swing towards institutionalism yields a well-ordered, smoothly running society, but at the cost of increasing suppression of creativity and harder pushes to put people who don't fit the institutional mold on the margins. Eventually that uniformity gets so heavy-handed that it starts to feel oppressive, at which point people revolt in the name of individualism and push the pendulum in the opposite direction. That starts a trend towards increasing liberality, which goes on until individualism is maximized but institutions have been weakened to the point where nothing feels like it works anymore -- at which point people revolt in the name of making the trains run on time, and start the pendulum swinging back towards institutionalism again.

It's definitely pop history, and you can pick it apart its specifics pretty easily if you want to. But its core insight (that history is made up of "people moving through time," rather than time washing over people) is valuable, and if you were raised on the March of Progress model thinking about history as something that happens in cycles can be thought-provoking.
Yes, probably so. So maybe don't autopilot before the recall repair.

Bystander here. Why the ban? It’s snarky in places for sure but I’d say it’s a pretty solid set of points and counter points. It definitely “added something” to my experience reading this thread.
Total guess here: In addition to having two products that do the same thing, I'm guessing they may want to distance themselves from goo.gl links since a shortened URL with that domain somehow seems associated with Google and seems more legit (as opposed to, say, a bit.ly or ow.ly link.)

I wonder why Google is reusing the Firebase brand so much? It doesn't really fit with messaging (GCM -> FCM) or links, among other functions. Seems like an odd choice, even if the backend infrastructure/team is the same.

Reminds me of Microsoft reusing "Surface", or prepending "Live" to everything once upon a time...
all reasonable, but I think the post you're responding to is just widening the net of the original post of 1password vs chrome feature. the follow up was what about people who use a different browser which exposes a flaw in being too specific for the b case, and the follow up to that is just widening it to 1password vs web browser password storage. I didn't even take it as a defense of the b case, just an "okay, think of Edge/Safari/Firefox's password keeper instead"

It could also be added as a benefit for the 1password or other password management application side is that the passwords stored would be usable in all of those browsers whereas Chrome's would be locked in Chrome, Firefox's locked in Firefox, etc.

So the moral of the story, ignoring security in all (external vs browser) cases, if the specific browser is all you use, it is a fine password manager. The moment you go outside of that use case, the values flip quickly.

I found that part wow-worthy too. I wonder if they thought whistle-blowers or leakers like Manning or Snowden have "moral compass" and "integrity", or if they're traitors without "loyalty".
Yeah, solve centralization by more centralization.

Also: one reason people use Google is that their services are in one place, users don't have to keep track of n amount of sites, it's all there.

P.S. I don't like Google.
I'm not sure what provoked this, but it doesn't take much reading to see that HN has many, many older users. In fact one of the things I like best about HN is that it's one of the rare places where younger people can get advice and mentorship from older ones. That's sadly lacking in many fields, especially computing.
