I saw those, but the first is couched within the copyright violation rule, so I assumed it was associated. I.e. we can remove it for copyright violation at anytime.

For the second, I assumed that "if your content was removed for a reason we justified here, we don't have to warn you beforehand."

I'm no lawyer though and I'm sure in court those clauses would be summarily smacked across my face one way or the other.

Ask HN: Do you use Kubernetes in production?
You misunderstand the point of models. A model's photoshoot is rarely about the model, or the "person behind it". It is an art piece. It is not meant to be a candid photo like what you throw up on your social media. Often models are just for the purpose of branding, to convey a lifestyle or value, or to get likes.

What about this is specifically Orwellian?

You maybe not, but less mentally stable persons or those without any safety net? The US isn't known for good mental health care and also not for a safety net. Not everyone lives a privileged life.
Probably the #1 area that can produce results is avoiding/conquering the processor-memory gap: while processor performance has been growing exponentially, memory (bandwidth) performance has basically grown linearly. There is now a factor 1,000 difference between processor/memory speeds compared to 1980.

One of the areas that I have much hope for is near-data processing: since processors scale so much better, pretty much every peripheral device already has its own microcontroller. The idea behind NDP is basically to offload some data-heavy processing to the data layer. What if your disk layer could already preselect your data so the database wouldn't have to read and discard so many rows for each query? What if the network controller could evaluate your firewall rules itself, so dropped packets wouldn't have to interrupt the main CPU?
Completely fails to understand network effects and the history of internet business (indeed, big box stores preceding internet business).

Please do not suggest 'you can make your own website' is an answer to issues around the management of massive, subsidized content-aggregation platforms. A thing like YouTube cuts off the air supply of competitors, especially when it's run at a loss, and individual web hosts are not remotely comparable.
Ask HN: Are You Applying OKR (Objective/Key Results)
One of the hardest parts for people building start-ups is changing how they function. As employees, we're often rewarded for delivering what we're told to do.

Have you tried using OKR to change your behavior and how you fundamentally focus?
I think the combination of Cockroach and Kubernetes is going to be a game changer. Modern orchestration tools really are still struggling with single points of failure and Cockroach really shines there. The fact that both tools are maturing at around the same time is a real win for Cockroach. Additionally its use of certificate authentication just fits in with the rest of Kubernetes.
Those use cases weren't super-specific. IoT sensor data gathering can be accomplished in many, many ways using a Kafka platform. I've done enough operations work to see that this would mean nothing to me (as it stands). I well laid out use case explaining what it means to developers and ops would help your case. Good luck!
Explain what you mean by your last sentence.
Yes, My company uses GKE which is google's hosted Kubernetes engine!
> 1) What's the best 'MUD' game to play?

"Best" isn't a valid descriptor for anything, but there are a few websites were MUDs are listed, reviewed, and voted on, like http://www.topmudsites.com/ and http://www.mudconnect.com/top20.html
Some of them were also made age-restricted even though, according to her, they did not include graphic content. From a glance I took at her videos, she did seem quite a bit off. Whoever is saying she is a far-leftist is plain wrong. She never talks about politics, just animal rights and little bit about culture). Most likely she could've been diagnosed with a mental condition if she ever bothered to get herself checked out. Unfortunately criticizing such people now-a-days usually backfires on the person criticizing.
When i'm using Google Maps, sometimes i have a feeling that you're not using the product you have produced. Especially while driving.

Bill Gates Reviews Hans Rosling's 'Factfulness' Book
When you read "Hackers: Heroes of the Computer Revolution" by Stephen Levy, you can just feel how excited they all were about bringing people together. Maybe that was just Levy's twist on it, but it's feeling tragic to me right now.
Tangentially related - I would be interested in hearing anyone's experience so running CockroachDB 1.x in production.
People are downvoting you, but there's something to be said about it. What happens if you try to pitch CockroachDB to your non-techie upper management? They're going to look at you like you're an idiot. Names aren't important unless they're bad because first impressions do matter.
> People lose their jobs all the time and don't result to violence.

Oh, enough do. There's a reason why fired people get escorted by security.
Yes we understand that - but these were her options: continue hosting on YouTube, host on another site/hosting service (a lot of new anti-YouTubes are popping up), or self-host. She had a choice in this. YouTube being the most popular of them all doesn't mean she has to host her videos there.
The courts are for rich people. Suing a major corporation is all but hopeless.

Practically, when you have a business dispute with a major corporation, your only option is to give up.
I think this is a good thing. We all know models are heavily photoshopped and overlaid with CGI. But we also cannot separate that from the real person, even though the image isn't real. If this catches on in fashion I feel a weight can be lifted from our shoulders. We will know most of the images are completely computer-generated.
Xiaomi want to become an ecosystem/lifestyle provider, kind of a blend of Apple and IKEA.
The margin on each individual product aren’t high (especially the electronic ones), but it leads to selling higher margin products down the line.
I’m living in China and I now find myself buying Xiaomi towels and USB cables and pens and AA batteries and beer... since I know they will have an acceptable quality at a non-excessive price. Margin on all those is likely to be much higher than on that $30 IP camera.
WOW! Bundle all of your monthly bills. Pay them in 1 or 2 installments per month
Regarding your last paragraph, I’d still say there would be an inherent difference considering a single human being can’t speak / connect with everyone on earth. This limits the connection you feel. If you feel like things you’ve said to the digital person reflect in their personality, I believe you will feel connected to a much larger degree.

If you’ve seen the movie Her, that’s sort of what I’m thinking about.
Can mods just delete comments about the name of this project? It's getting absurd.
I think mental illness is automatically implied when you go on a shooting spree for a video sharing site's monetization policies.
You would have to change every word, since any could be a waterprinted synonym. A better way would be to read it, make a summary, then rewrite it from memory and only use the source data to correct factual differences.
Yes, but for multi DC you will probably want many of the tools in the enterprise edition: https://www.cockroachlabs.com/pricing/
The community is better at self defense than the individual.

If your family member was murdered while you were out, do you have the expertise to find out who did it and meter justice?

Do you have the resources to guarantee mutually assured destruction with another community?
"echo -e" is not portable, and neither are any escape sequences for echo.

The portable way to print ASCII BEL is:

printf '\a'
I do this using my credit card
OK, I understand you more now, and I agree it seems more complex than just being angry about de-monetization. However I don't think it's specifically helpful to imaginatively enumerate what the other underlying reasons are. And finally no, I don't care about PETA. I am personally a vegan and get annoyed when all vegans are seen as one, crazy group, but no, I have no connection to PETA.
... but the fact remains: AWS is a service provided by a private corporation, not the government. There's no requirement or mandate in criminal law that it exist or continue to function. It could be dropped without warning at any time, and the only recourse customers would have is whatever contracts provide for them. This isn't something Amazon would do, because "Leaving millions of dollars of revenue on the table" isn't in their best interest. But if it ever becomes in their best interest? Nothing but civil contracts stopping them.

Most of society actually works like this, and we somehow manage to muddle through without shooting each other most of the time.
Interesting thought. I've been very anti Spotify-as-a-label, but this is a really neat way of looking at it that I hadn't considered before. What if Spotify becomes a (small) label that's very artist-friendly? Then they can offer non-streaming distribution of their artists as a bargaining chip for existing labels.

My only issue here is that I'm not sure if existing labels will begrudge a new competitor on the block (and then try to kill Spotify). It doesn't seem to me like Spotify being a fellow label gives them much more that the existing labels would want, but maybe I'm just not thinking of it.

According to my memory and a little research [1], the record labels have some stock stake in Spotify. Personally I think this is Spotify's best bet: if the labels can derive stock gains from helping Spotify (plus licensing fees), they have skin in the game so they won't try to sabotage Spotify. I'm of the opinion that instead of trying to produce music (and fight the record labels), Spotify is better off getting into a complimentary position: make it easier for fans to find out about concert, purchase tickets at fair prices, and buy t-shirts. All stuff that Spotify can probably do better than the record labels, and which won't cut into label profits.

"Demonetized" is exactly the term used both by Youtube creators and by Youtube representatives for this phenomenon for as long as it has been
around.

Youtube first made the pitch that you could "monetize" your videos. Then they had to deny that offer to certain cases. This naturally led to "demonetized" (as opposed to some awkward phrase like "ineligible for monetization").

The word is reasonable in context, and the usage ship has sailed — all market participants use it. I think it's a big stretch to see any presumption of a right in the use of this word.
I was on the Essex MUD via JANET (Joint Academic Network) as an undergrad at Cambridge in late 87. IIRC there was a "shout" feature that broadcast a message to all users. I used to troll by shouting "VMS is way better than Unix"! Quite a few Essex MUDers would rise to the bait :)

Bonus JANET trivia: IIRC the email addrs were back to front, so my email addr was something like uk.ac.cam.chu@jos.
Not if you're working on your own (though there may be a slim chance of getting damages replacements if the decision is proven to be malignant, but that's difficult as hell to do). If you are an employed creator, on the other hand, yes your employer has to pay you even if Youtube shuts down the monetization.

Exactly this safety net is what the "gig economy" tries to cut...
Ask HN: Which text editor/IDE do you use for development and why?
Sorry for my late reply:

> And we know the company has the ability to read messages.

I don’t think we actually know that.

In fact I think they have a system to keep data and keys apart and in different jurisdictions to prevent USA, Russia or anyone from being able to get access to it.

I am no cryptographer or legal expert though.

> How is telegram better from FB messenger?

This is a bit simpler: while Facebook messenger might be E2E encrypted I have good reason to believe that Facebook will datamine my metadata and sell it to however wants to pay.

With uber you are paid when you serve a customer. Creating content, on its own, is not serving either a customer or an end user, so there can be no expectation of payment.
It seems to me that it'd be very obvious that a human did not write whatever result that could produce.

Here's 5 bits in that simple sentence. I'm sure others can do better.
> Yes, we're kind of stuck on individual CPU power. Clocks have been around 3GHz for a decade now.

It's worse than that. A 3GHz version of Northwood was released a little over fifteen years ago. I doubt it was the first 3GHz processor (that'd be a PPC or something?), but it's definitely symbolic...
Comments seemed pretty spot on.
One could argue that if the creators didn't want a constant discussion around the name every time they tried to promote it, they would have chosen a better name.

I don't think we should be censoring a discussion just because you've already had that particular discussion.
But echo doesn't do any ioctls. The only thing it does is writing bytes on stdout.
The problem is silicon is really cheap compared to germanium, so germanium only makes sense if the increased speed is worth the cost (which it probably isn't for almost all applications);
It uses the postgresql interface so any Postgres compatible client should work. The status just refers to esoteric features that may not be supported.

Some people are so cynical of information that doesn't fit their beliefs they end up spreading lies.
I've sued several very large corporations over the last 30 years and have to this date come out the winner in each and every case. Yes it cost some money but the pay-off was substantially higher than the money invested in the court case. And no, we were not rich by any definition.

In Europe the courts are still accessible for companies that do not have millions of $.
Breakthrough ‘parallel reality’ display technology promises to personalize world
As we slide more and more towards a "gig economy", not only can we underpay people, but we can also tell them they don't even have a "real job". Someone producing content for YouTube or driving for Lyft is a beggar? Get real.
I don't usually do this, but I find both idealboy's and luislobo's comments to be somewhat suspicious. I can't for the life of me imagine that they were paid to post positively about a crappy node framework, but one of them has few previous comments, and the other's history is... odd to say the least (including a previous similar accusation).

My sincere apologies if I'm wrong about this, but my experience with Sails (and its 'culture') has been sufficiently negative that I wouldn't put it beyond its leader(s) to pay some semi-real accounts to post in favor of it. The alternative is lack of dev experience though, so maybe that's it.
Fashion models aren't real because the images of them are photoshopped. If you looked at the humans that inspired the images you wouldn't see the same thing.

Exotic cars are... expensive? A lot of the appeal of owning one is the perception of (and the very real) cost, but they are still what they seem to be.
There is also such a thing as having a record expunged. That is non-contractual, although still more available to people with resources to navigate the legal system.
> 40% of what you see is right wing conspiracy theorists

Right in a post complaining labelling, a labeling slapping to my face.

I am a bit depressed by our species ability to do rational thinking.
No, it doesn't have to be "mass". The question is, is it really the case that people use knives when guns are not available?

Your hypothesis is that people just use the next available weapon, which sounds logical, but is there any data to support it? Have the eurocrazies actually found a way, in general? Maybe most crazies just go and break furniture and laptops instead of stabbing when no guns are available? Maybe they just punch the person that they are unhappy with?

I mean, Europe is around for long enough time so we should have enough data to come to a definitive answer to the question instead of repeating it every time the subject comes in, right? Do people actually use knives when guns are not available and no significant safety benefit is achieved by the European approach?
They absolutely are responsible.

Imagine if Uber started randomly denying drivers payment, taking away their source of income for arbitrary reasons with no chance of appeal. It would only be a matter of time before someone showed up at their door with a gun.

Only the shooter is guilty of the crime. But YouTube is responsible. And the courts will agree when the victims sue.
This is a corporate ownership of personality.

Shudu is ageless, ever available, won't do anything against the corporate image and can be bought and sold.

Ok, she is a generated personality but this will happen with real people too. Tom Cruise is too old to appear in action films? Well, his image won't be.. even after he is dead and gone his image will be owned by a corporation. He won't be too short to appear as Jack Reacher anymore either.. We might be lucky with some celebrities who are already dead, at least they will get left behind. Its difficult to know how this will affect new talent though, perhaps society will become sick of recorded images and turn to live events but I can see that the CGI power will increase such that these images can be generated live.

We already had some of this with Tupac of course
Only 5.7 million people, actually, but otherwise, yeah.

Note, though, that it's not really just Peter paying Paul, as the transaction is still between their respective banks with everything that entails. And a MobilePay account is actually tied to a specific payment card. I have had a MobilePay transaction refused (and from a public institution, no less) because my account did not involve a Dankort, the only payment card the institution deemed acceptable.
> If like me you like composing playlists instead of playing one full album at a time then not having the vast majority of your music available on a single service is a huge deal breaker.

I have this problem with Spotify. About 80% of the music I like is on Spotify. Private label, soundcloud, older forgotten bands, and foreign music is often missing.
That law is not absolute since reporter's value is ostensibly tied to their reputation and credibility.
It goes both ways, YouTube willingly starts business agreements with these people and makes money off their content.

You can't act shocked and surprised if a mentally ill person snaps when you've been happily profit sharing that mentally ill persons content and then change the deal.

YouTube/Google likes to think these relationships are all one way and not think about the consequences of their choices and algorithms on peoples lives. I'm actually surprised it took this long for this to happen, it was a morbid inevitability in my eyes.

If YouTube/Google can't understand when money is involved actions have consequences then maybe the whole partner program should be scrapped.
I'm no expert in these matters so I'm not very qualified to give specifics, but roughly:

1) Something modelled after employment regulation to protect people whose full-time income comes from these platforms. There are tons of rules designed to protect employees which services like YouTube and Uber have been dodging (and actively fighting) for years.

2) Something like common-carrier status to protect the users of the most critical platforms (Google search, Facebook, etc.).
I struggled for a long time with where I would draw the line here - I don't think it's reasonable for civilians to own nukes or other crazy weapons of warfare. I saw a suggestion that sat really well with me - civilians should be able to be just as armed as the police force. This does not mean I favor de-arming citizens or the police force.
It is based on where you and the business are at, not the users citizenship. If you are in the EU you are covered. If the business is in the EU you are also covered. Data being processed in the EU is covered (and transferring it to the US is also processing it). In other words the data is covered by the GDPR if it is inside the EU at any point.

EDIT: So to answer the question directly: No, if you use a US located business from outside the EU you aren't covered no matter your citizenship, unless the data is being processed in the EU at some point.
It would apply in a restaurant. I've eaten the food and want to settle up, here's the cash. They have to accept it.
What's your blockchain running on? What's your edge cloud device connecting to? To run code you need a processor and an app launcher/monitor - which is typically an OS and will continue to be for the foreseeable future. Even if it's a minimal OS, it's still an OS. Containers merely provide isolation from apps running on the same OS instance - allowing multi-tenant apps to run on the same physical hardware. If anything, I see container use increasing.

Thank you for your feedback. How about rent and other bills that can't be paid with a card? Our goal with this tool is to add ALL of your bills, then pay them all at once, or split in 2 payments. You can choose your payments dates so it matches your paycheck. Easy cashflow and easy budgeting.

Funny, I did actually write an OS, and no it is not the one on my computer but the one that is on my computer is open source and I know I can rely on it for ever because I have that source and know how to use a compiler.

Yes, that's a conscious decision.

Congratulations to the CockroachDB team. I have been using this on a few projects. I find the ease of scalability and redundancy very nice.

Also, the ability to use SQL commands on a transactional DB is REALLY helpful.

It doesn't open /dev/console by default either (the default device is /dev/tty0).

I don't see where the race condition is, though.
it uses standard, off the self postgresql libraries. but their server-side implementation of postgresql isn't 100%. or even 98%, so you can't count on every feature of every client library working.
Well, again, I'm not advocating murder. But cris de coueur about changes to services like AWS or the App Store get plenty of upvotes and attention here, while the attitude toward people trying to make a living off of YouTube is different. Why?
Maybe you guys just don't know what you're doing? I mean asking complete strangers on the internet how to lead your team doesn't really strike confidence in me. Perhaps you should start with the titles. CEO is someone managing a corporation of thousands of people, not a 9-person start-up. Sorry for being crude and blunt.
