It had been a $25/year subscription, and seemed to be a relatively popular app. What does this mean? Is this a failure of subscription pricing, or were they just unable to compete in a crowded art market?
Back in 2006/7 I remember we'd use "progressive enhancement" to make a site work without JavaScript and then add JavaScript enhancements for those who had JS enabled.

At some point (maybe after the popularity of Google Maps?) nobody wanted progressive enhancement and it was totally cool to just ignore users who had JS turned off. It made web app development so much easier, but probably less user friendly.

It feels like JS is a hammer to fix the nail of the page reload. I always thought it was too bad that browsers choose to show the blank page instead of sending the request and just rendering the difference themselves.
So, if you want this inflexible model, you could easily build it as a library in Erlang, just as you're clearly using someone's inflexible fork-join model library (or an inflexible language implementation); in the mean time you're missing out on things like fork A, B, C, A expected to run much longer than the other two, when B and C return, fork D using the results from B and C , finally wait for A and D to return. Or fork A, B, C and merge the first two that return, then merge that one and the third. Or fork these ten jobs, but only run four of them at any given time (resource constraints).
My first example you could probably structure into your model with an extra fork; the second example won't fit in your model, the third fits if you fork four workers and add a shared queuing mechanism, but that feels more complex.

These kind of techniques are key to using parallelism to reduce latency. Always having to wait for everyone to finish at each step makes for a lot of waiting.
This is a hard problem to solve but is it not possible to hard wire the requirement to not hit anything?

This is very much the case in Seattle.

A group of my neighbors spoke with several residents in an unauthorized encampment that setup near I-5. We learned that a few of them were from Houston, TX. They had been given one-way tickets, paid for by the State of Texas, to one of any number of cities. They signed forms that said they promised not to return to Texas, otherwise they would be arrested.

A recent local study here in Seattle found that a significant percentage (maybe 30%) of our homeless are from outside the state of Washington.

I don't get all the sadness in these responses. Are you guys all surprised that businesses finely tune their marketing and operations in order to maximize profit, and sometimes they hire consultants to help? You wouldn't be surprised that retail clothing stores measure and optimize everything about their ops, store layout, merchandise presentation, color palette, music, the fragrance in the air. Your favorite grocery stores are carefully engineered, too, and your favorite hotels, home improvement stores, gas stations. Nobody would be surprised that these places are tweaked and optimized for profit by MBAs. But, suddenly it's shocking that your favorite restaurants are all phony too?

Fork-join is not what you think it is then. It's just a behavior, uncommon outside of the shared memory programming. And there is no order of results. There can be, if it is implemented on top of message passing. But then writing code that relies on order instead of specific names actually becomes error prone.

And lack of order of messages is still not a race condition.
Not only does it sound cool, but it is cool!

The referenced site BlockMetry.com doesn't seem to go into how it calculated 0.2% as having JS disabled. Especially since it references Tor traffic as a high percentage my guess is that each connection was coming into the site with different fully-wiped Http connections basically disabling tracking. Alternatively what percentage of that traffic is simply cache bots for search engines, etc...

You're referring to regulatory regions which really represent a tiny component of the genome (in terms of base fraction)... but nobody has really constructed a strong argument (that can be tested) that long stretches of Alu (which comprise most of the junk DNA) actually have a regulatory or other function.

Ask HN: GDPR Boilerplate Terms of Service
We would really like to be ready for GDPR as opposed to just trying to block access to our site for EU customers but are finding the quagmire of rules and regulations hard to navigate.

Does anybody know of boilerplate terms of service for standard SaaS businesses? For those of us that don't sell or track our users in weird ways but are just trying to provide a useful service?

It seems most SaaS sites probably fall into this broad category:
1. You use Google analytics to get high level usage data for inbound visitors
2. You use a help desk like UserVoice or the like to deal with customer tickets
3. You use something like Intercom for drip emails, notifications or the like.
4. Apart from that you aren't selling or sharing customer data with anyone and aren't keeping more data than you need to provide your service.

You also keep some web logs for debugging, though with a fairly limited retention period.

For people like us why isn't there a boilerplate terms of service we can tweak as well as a checklist of what we need to do to satisfy GDPR. Does this exist and I just missing that?

If this doesn't exist, any lawyers out there want to team up to create it? I'd happily pay for this if it was available.
Population with mental health and substance use disorders, 2016
The Bible cake story is new to me, so I had to Google it. (https://www.nytimes.com/2017/11/27/opinion/gay-wedding-cake....) Apparently there is a small but critical nuance between the stories. Per this article, in the Bible quote incident, the owner was willing to sell the cake, and do everything except putting a quote on it -- even offering the icing to write those words if they wanted. In the gay cake incident, the owner was willing to sell the couple anything else in the store -- but the cake itself was not allowed to be bought.

"Protected classes" are one of the few government mandated restrictions for the freedom of businesses to refuse service (something which I have some mixed feelings on, but given some of the climate that happened without these protections, I find them completely understandable). It's possible that the judgement will end up reading very narrowly -- for instance, if you use the above reasoning, it would be legal to discriminate on the messaging but illegal to discriminate on the product. (In other words, if the baker in the homosexual couple case didn't sell a homosexual marriage themed case, but would sell a generic cake and let the homosexual couple decorate it in any way they want, that would have been legal under this particular interpretation.) This is just an example, it's not the only way a narrow reading could go down, but there are probably more solutions out there then all one way vs. another.

Hmmm, I'm not sure about that. I've only done toy projects with WebAssembly, so I could easily be missing something, but it seems to be:

1) Overkill for most websites

2) Significantly more complicated than current web development - which is saying something given the explosion in complexity of recent web development practices

Obviously #2 can be lessened as time goes on, but it's hard for me to imagine #1 ever being false. It's great for performance-sensitive applications like games, but it doesn't seem to offer much benefit for CRUD apps or static sites.

There's a surprisingly difficult question to answer. Imagine you had practically unlimited funds. In other words some large number, but not millions of dollars per homeless individual. How would you solve homelessness?

Let's imagine with the most straight forward solution. You simply make them not homeless by giving them a home. Now you've suddenly set this city to face a massive increase of migration of homeless individuals who'd also like a free home. You're also going to face antagonism from the general population who end up spending huge chunks of their income just to get a small space to call their own. Free public housing, if remotely tolerable, is something many regular people would also be attracted to. And if you kick the homeless out of this free housing once they start earning money, you've created quite the broken incentive system!

And then you have to consider the reason for homelessness. There are absolutely some individuals that end up homeless because of unfortunate circumstance outside of their control. Though for these individuals homelessness is often a brief affair before they get back on their feet anyhow. Among the other reasons for homelessness are mental health issues, substance abuse problems, and even choice where some individuals would rather be 'free' than participate in society.

I think when we look at solutions we often consider all homeless as the group of unfortunate circumstance. And they're indeed relatively easy to solve. Even just giving them a low interest loan would often be sufficient to get them back on their feet. But I'm not sure how large a chunk of all homeless these individuals are. And for the other individuals, homelessness may not even be their most significant obstacle to overcome.

In a way I see this like education. We constantly argue that lack of money is the reason America's educational results are slipping. And we ignore the fact that places like Vietnam outperform us on math and science with educational spending that's a tiny fraction of ours per student, even when parity adjusted. The point there is that money may just be a red herring. You can always claim the problem is not enough of it, when the real problem may be something much more fundamental with no easy solution.

If one comes in while I'm in the zone, I can assess it without losing flow because I know I've got a break coming up soon, and so I only have to decide if the incoming message is so important it can't wait for the break.

I get those notifications on my phone, so I just keep my phone face up next to my computer, so I can easily glance at the notifications, but I'm less tempted to respond.
I use Firefox containers along with cookie autodelete so each tab gets a clean slate unless I've auto-mapped it to a container (where I've white-listed cookies - eg. a Facebook container where I only visit facebook.com)

Gandi was super intransparent about the phase and what they are actually selling.

Indeed, Gandi did not actually obtain the domain. But merely offered to try to bid with the money once the price of the domain reached that point where it was available for that price.

In my case, that failed. The domain was purchased by someone else at a higher price.

I now have to fight to get my money back into my bank account. Gandi made their life extra hard by not being fully transparent.
> I always thought it was too bad that browsers choose to show the blank page instead of sending the request and just rendering the difference themselves.

FWIW there are libraries that work around this, e.g. turbolinks - which I heavily suspect Github is using, and is probably a large part of why they're able to support progressive enhancement.
> Back in 2006/7 I remember we'd use "progressive enhancement" to make a site work without JavaScript and then add JavaScript enhancements for those who had JS enabled.

I still do that on my case, a good 95% of the features I develop work without Javascript. One additional benefit is that if your JS crash for any reason, most of the things are still working.

Microsoft has been doing great work in opening up their software the past couple years. For anyone interested in this, I suggest taking some time to read through Microsoft's Office Platform docs [0]. Quite a lot is possible. The plugin API is really clean and you can create javascript plugins for any office product, where you basically run a "website" in a frame within the office product, and the code in the "website" has access to the office API.

I haven't used it myself yet but am planning on using it in a project I'm working on currently. I'm building a questionnaire creator that can auto merge into docx files by using comments as merge keys (you highlight where you want to merge and leave a comment, then in the web UI where you build the questionnaire, you associate each form field with a comment in the uploaded docx file). At some point I would like to convert this to use the office API, which would enable a lot of cool features for converting a docx form into a questionnaire.

- Podcasting

Is anyone besides Google contributing. I think I read Google is giving $3B so that’s a decent chunk.

I’m guessing they wanted Softbank out for control in general and since Softbank loves to control, otherwise they could’ve saved another $4B and let Softbank keep 20% control.

>The restaurant business is filled with people that have more money than sense.

This. Speaking with my decade of experience within the Industry.

Seriously, forget about Menu placement, settings, services, etc... The first thing a restaurant should worry about is the quality AND consistency of their food.

Not saying others not important, but they are not "First". Location , services etc... these can only buy you time until you fix your "First"problem. Gordon Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares are not just reality shows, they are what is happening around the Real world, and not just in US.

I am also, baffled, by how little most restaurant owners knows about their food. Different type of Beef, poultry, different cuts, brand of French Fries, types, type of sources etc.

Edit: I should have written something in the Startup idea thread two days ago.

You should configure it to wait a second or two, instead of instantly disappearing. It happened whenever I moved the scrollwheel as far as I could, and then moved my finger to the other side of the wheel to continue scrolling.

Note that scrolling once and waiting causes the roll to stay up for a short while before fading out. Scrolling a lot and waiting causes the roll to almost-instantly disappear, when I expect the same delay as the first case I described.
There are plenty of people who eat low-carb diets. Glycolysis isn't the only metabolic pathway to produce energy. Your argument seems based on the macronutrient, not its metabolites, particularly as you're focussing on the taste. If the taste were driven by the metabolites, starches would taste sweet as sugar.

Sugar (and carbs) aren't intrinsically crucial as a macronutrient. They're calorically dense, which is important when calories are scarce. When calories are plentiful, their importance wanes.
