Windows 10 April 2018 update: everything you need to know
They tend to be very easy to fix.

That said, it's not like the C64 is rare. I'd be more concerned about someone doing this to an Altair or a Lisa...
I used an analogous system in another city. I think it's a mistake to be reductionist about the sunk costs when this represents an investment in infrastructure with a longmlife, and boosts tourism. All public transport systems have subsidies.

The competition is frankly a huge mistake. It's messy, it's wasteful, it's competitors for the sake of market forces. Every benefit of the no dock model has a counterweight downside.

I worked out that my decision to buy a home bike will take six years to pay back with a daily commute. The new docking station within 100m of my home turned on two months ago and is well patronized.

So yea, it's a huge dollar sum. I think it was a good investment and I do not see dockless as a benefit.
Nope:

This is what patrickg_zill's comment said, just with some newlines and emphasis to make it more understandable. The not necessarily does not refer to HTTP, it refers to non-.app domains. And there is no "criticism is directed at a fantasy", there is a cynical prediction which is completely possible in all respects. You---or I---may think that that'll never be the reality, but regardless, that's what the comment said, and the other commenter misunderstood. I don't get why I get downvotes and criticism for this.

I think your colleague may be lying. It’s next to impossible to be granted a PHD you didn’t write yourself after years of hard work.

It’s really hard to even have your work accepted by the review board if the empirical evidence and the methods aren’t solid.

A PHD is not a candidate or a bachelor, it’s where your work is reviewed by a board of experts in your field. Often some members of the board won’t necessarily want you to pass either, because it’s very likely they disagree with your thesis.

I mean, it’s a cute anecdote but there is virtually no chance it actually happened.

> Except that amazon is not the one paying, it is quad.com

It's souq.com, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Amazon. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Souq.com It's an e-commerce site targeted at the middle east that Amazon bought as their play for that market.

Signal deliberately chose it because it's an Amazon domain, so governments would be reluctant to block it.
There's an entire industry built around F-1/OPT abuse, since it's the only way to have a decent shot at getting an H-1B. Cf. the Silicon Valley University and the like.

Other visas are also abused (J-1, L-1, even O-1). It wouldn't be that hard to have a saner immigration path for skilled workers, like Canada, Australia and many European countries.

I find that I use Facebook Groups and Events more than Meetup.

Facebook Marketplace is really good for niche buying and selling, since you can have a group dedicated to specific topics.
It's not really sound though. You have to count the failures. And there are options within the "system" that don't straddle you with debt. Very few of us will make names for ourselves doing something.

I'm not sure what the dig at skaters in it just for the Olympics is about. If the sport makes it in the Olympics, the best skateboarders may well be the ones that treat it like a sport. Is there such a thing as living the "gymnast" or "swimmers" lifestyle?

Not everybody has option to move, nor everybody should, just because 'there are invasive mosquitoes but we shouldn't touch them'. Plus they spread. In Europe for example I can't think of a single place that doesn't have them - have been bitten in southern Portugal and in northest part of Norway (actually there one could have easily 100 bites on one hand). Maybe Iceland, haven't been there in the summer though
What's interesting here is that the game's addons (or expansions) can "solve" a big problem in a vanilla-only game, i.e.

>The bad news is that these trainers won't train skills above their governing attributes. Raising attributes requires levelling and levelling in Morrowind is a very long story.

This is solved in Mournhold, where you can learn the "Damage Skill" spell and artificially briefly lower your skill by 100 to 0 for 1 second and in that 1 second you talk to the trainer and get the training using that exploit from even the worst trainer of any skill.
Damn if you do. Damn if you don't.

At least acknowledge and respect what FB is doing here. Over the past month, everyone here was up in arms on how FB was collecting their data from 3rd party sites and there is no easy way to opt out or delete it. Now you have a way to do exactly that.

You can't have it both ways. FB is collecting data to target better ads but they are also providing much stronger controls for users to control what data you want to share. FB could've not done this (at least outside Europe) but chose to do it.

As a contrary example, look at Google or Twitter. They also have to follow GDPR guidelines wrt data erasure from 3rd party sites/apps. THey aren't choosing to offer this functionality outside Europe when, at least in the case of Google, they probably more data than Facebook.

So please acknowledge this effort from Facebook rather than staying on your high horse and being cynical about everything.
It's better to deadlock than to revert to a weak RNG. Deadlocking guarantees the application gets fixed. Reminds me of setting an init system to restart crashed daemons.
This is such a silly proxy-argument altogether.

For a very contrived definition of "product", search isn't a product, and for other definitions, it surely is.

You're trying to make a point that as search engine users, we are a means to an end for Google, like cattle on a farm.

And I agree with that.

But we can discuss this directly, there is no need for a passiv-agressive proxy discussion about what definition of product is right. And there is no need to draw the whole HN audience into this.
Well, now it'll have to, at least in Europe, GDPR requires that.

The article is absolute nonsense. Is Nora the future of skateboarding? Sure! But she's also skateboarding's past. Her perspective of skateboarding culture is as it was for at least the past couple of decades. We do keep out the posers — the people who take it on as a competitive sport instead of living the lifestyle. It's clear from the article that Nora is a real skater.

The final few paragraphs are a blatant attempt to shoehorn a sexist us-vs-them political agenda into a culture where girls were never not welcome.

BBN Lisp (later known as Xerox Interlisp) had already a structure editor in the 60s.

I am so glad there's some damage control after the whole fuss. that means that they actually care and try to improve their mistakes. I see here a lot of negative comments, I don't really understand why though, isn't it what people where asking for, like, improvements?
It's unfortunate that this wasn't build with a cross-platform core, but native, first class UIs for each respective platform.

Edit: I realized this was worded very badly. I’m saying I wish this was written with a cross platform core, and native, platform specific UIs for each respective platform. For example, MS Office is written this way.
Looks great! I'm always curious what it means when people say they've worked x years on something. Was this a full time project @ 40/h a week every week, or more of a few hours on the weekends, or maybe something in the middle?
Pypi and Python devs themselves could start doing the curation. The package just isn't accepted into the repo if it doesn't follow X, Y, Z guidelines.

Python is big and important enough that it needs these kinds of quality assurances. Punting on them is as bad as compromising on language design decisions.
My instinct is to agree with you.

On the other hand, it's a way of giving a dynamic introduction like you might achieve with a video but putting the speed of navigation through it into the control of the user.

Re. technical domains you may not know exist: airplane flatware logistics.

When you want to look at something optimised, start with things that are expensive to run. Airports are expensive in nearly every sense of the word, so it's a place where you find things being optimised to hell and back. Outgoing passenger flights may need clean, fresh flatware. The window in time allocated to unload dirty flatwar and load a clean batch is small; that cart of flatware needs to be in exactly the right place at the right time, or there will be delays, which will cost a lot of money to someone.

So, naturally, the strategies on how to get flatware onto airplanes is an area of deep study.

I talked to a friend of a friend at a party about this, since it was their subject of study. They thought they were studying the most boring thing in the world and I couldn't make them understand why it fascinated me.

> Total privacy - we do not have access to your email account, Ivelope only sends your email data and password between your computer and your email server.

I wish this was the default assumption these days.
What is the reason to build it as a native software instead of a webapp? Seems like a lot of email clients are now webapps and I can see the arguments why.
Native UIs are how you get fast and responsive applications that don't chew up memory and CPU.

Even I would be interested in knowing a ballpark figure.
Although, in reality, that doesn't make it more secure.
I agree this looks very good. I'm waiting for people to try it out and write some reviews to be sure it's not just a dream...
Yes there is a plan, and I have on-going conversations with some interested parties :)
It also adds a couple of convenience language features and a simplified API, which is why it appears "BASIC-like".

The product looks great. Feed is a fantastic idea, love it. Good luck!
Thank you for your comment, will fix the typo!
I get you, been there before. Eventually, it will get to you. So I slowed down gradually, and when I saw it was working, I got more mental strength to keep slowing down. The idea is to try and initiate a virtuous circle. Good luck mate!
This looks very neat! Does it have quick to use keyboard shortcuts like the Fastmail or Gmail web interfaces?
I'd personally think "amazing" is a better adjective than "unfortunate" here - the value of an e-mail client, at least to me, lies almost entirely in its user interface. If using a native stack can squeeze out a few more tidbits of usability here and there, that's a good job well done. There's still a lot of value in native if it's done properly.

Electron and similar technologies are in my opinion not quite at the point where they can compete with the best that native platforms can offer. I'm sure that will change one day, but we're not there yet.

GTK integration on windows and mac is also less than perfect - I've been using geany on multiple platforms a lot recently and it's a great tool, but there's small annoyances like that the "swipe to scroll" speed varies massively between it and Notepad++.
I see you have registered a company. How do you plan to monetize?
Looks fantastic - a long queue for the beta, but would like to give it a try. Early yet - but any plans to support plugins?
No offense but unless it’s a 1st party client email clients are something that is very hard to trust.

Who controls your client has access to your inbox with most services even the few that have separate IMAP/POP3 passwords like Hushmail can be compromised through it.

If your client also integrates with encryption or worse takes charge of it my encryption key is also now at risk.

Lastly since email today is pure HTML you also inherit all the possible vulnerabilities that come with having a DOM parser and a layout engine and even modem browsers still get both wrong.

And using something like Electron or even Chromium won’t implicitly save you because the way you implement them matters a lot and now you are tied with their update cycle which might break functionality forcing you to manually backport security fixes which is hard to accomplish.

So unless you have the source or show an audit from a respected firm (c53, isec etc.) its going to be quite hard to recommend to anyone to take the dive and try this out.

On a desktop app, you can see what kind of request the program makes and which servers it contacts. With a webapp, you'll never know what the app does.
I'm sorry to hear about your experience with this, but this is simply not the case here.
There is a big blog post about it, no one is trying to boot anyone out.
Yes the article does not mention names, but its easy to find out and verify commit histories and social media accounts.

And just to be sure, I think most if not all of the contributors would be happy to hear back and know if everything is alright. The lead was a very central and active part of the community until over a year ago.

Forking the project would kill the original, all servers are payed for and maintained by currently active contributors.
We can not simply pull the plug and ask users to switch, if we do this this has to happen over a long time period until we know there are not many users left and there is no significant amount of traffic on the repository mirrors.
Now if only you could capture the smoke and get it back inside the chip.

It would work again!
I hope it's paid. This guy deserves to get paid for his awesome work, and I will trust it more if I'm paying $.
