Ask HN: Add an “Outline” link beside the “web”?
Since many online newspapers are putting up a paywall, or straight up blocking visitors from EU, it's time to consider adding or changing the "web" link.

I know that it's used to search on Google for the same article with the intent to bypass the paywall, but time after time it failed me.

I'd personally love to see an "Outline" link which automatically redirects to the uncluttered version of an article using outline.com, which provides a great service.

I think the joke here is that some people argue that usage not permitted by the terms of services is a criminal offense under the cfaa

I don't agree with this interpretation but I think cfaa is unsalvageable nonetheless. I demand a full repeal!
Site is down. Should have hosted on github pages.
If you are shopping for a bit of a CPU than newer models, make sure that the motherboard that fits your requirements is also available. Motherboards tend to get more expensive 2nd hand once they stop being manufactured, as opposed to CPUs.
I don't follow. Evidently, people could "afford to live" in 2000--almost all are still around to collect a paycheck. And now, they can live 19.6% (1.01^18 - 1) better than that! Real, not nominal. So why are the jobs "lies?"
Does this mean that you literally hand over your online account log in details to Intuit? Or how is this "scanning" done?

Yes, mint screen scrapes any bank that doesnt have an api. The sheer number of sites it works with is impressive. I have moved away from it, because if the security concerns, but I wish there was a self hosted open source solution that had connectivity into everything you could want.
This is what I don't understand. Why did the LA Times add the IP filter in the first place? Why do they care if they get sued and/or fined by a foreign country? Let the EU block their IPs or DNS themselves if they feel like it.
It’s extremely intellectually dishonest to compare people who live in extreme comfort and can afford tremendous amounts of power because of their money to people who are historically oppressed by law and culture because of their ethnicity.

Edit: Also, who has said they hate the rich? Stop propping up silly YouTube strawmen for you to take down with your logic lording.
Reading the comments from Australia, is it fair to say things are this way due to no gun control?

Every comment seems to miss what seems obvious to me.

Since the chance of armed encounters is high the Police have to respond this way to every scenario or risk getting shot.
I don’t get the Microsoft hate, it feels immature, like teenage rage.

Life’s pretty good if all you have to get really mad about is Microsoft buying github.
Exactly, cooling is expensive but not as much as human resources. With a sinkable data center, you could put it next to any coastal or riverside city.
> Contrast that with the Rock Band series and its still-growing selection of more than 2,000 DLC songs. Even when some of those songs are removed from the store for licensing issues, the downloaded versions can still be played on the original hardware and instruments. Even better, I can still play downloaded and on-disc songs from the original 2007 Rock Band release on the updated version of Rock Band 4 to this very day.

But maybe only until your hard disk dies (I'm not clear if you can re-download songs that you purchased before they were removed from the store?).
It's not by design; design implies choice.

The designer can hardly choose it such that a language can be bootstrapped without the use of any prior executable.
Last time we were vendor shopping we considered Intel and had an in-person meeting. I'm not sure why they bothered turning up as they were nowhere near competitive. It was pretty clear they were not interested in any thing that involved any work from them. If only someone else could offer EMIB technology...
> The clickable image map with pixel-perfect precision is a marvel of efficiency and have probably necessitated a lot of tedious, manual labor.

I remember reading about image maps back when everyone still thought XHTML was going to be it, and really wanting to use them because they seemed to be so underused yet secretly quit powerful. But they're such a pain.

Imagine if someone made an easy GUI tool for that. Just load an image, overlay some vector shapes, associate shapes with links, spit out either a static site, or plain HTML tags to embed elsewhere.

EDIT: Via the MDN tutorial on image maps[0], I found this[1]. Interesting to see old website tech like that.

> ...housing is an investment good...

Only if you realize the appreciation somehow.
Even worse, and more surprising and alarming, a few weeks ago the Humble Bundle was selling region-locked EBOOKS! Someone explain that one for me, please. This means I wanted to buy a bundle of sci-fi books -- that's buy, not read for free -- and all of the most interesting books (old classics, by the way) were "not available in your region".

edit: a clarification: the ebooks themselves don't have DRM, but Humble Bundle will refuse to sell them to you if you're in whatever region they (or the publishers) don't want to support at the time.
> The police are trained to ...

Yeah, so "police training". I'm perhaps a little less prepared to attribute purely positive outcomes from that.

http://mobile.abc.net.au/news/2018-06-06/victoria-police-off...

"A Victorian police officer has told a jury he punched a teenager in the face as hard as he could, in line with his training, after the boy hit him on the forearm."

and:

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/jul/22/ipcc-concern-o...

"Police officers have been accused of using Tasers to inflict pain to gain compliance, a report by the police watchdog says. Concerns are also raised about the use of Tasers on suspects already in custody, in the findings by the Independent Police Complaints Commission."

"IPCC commissioner James Dipple-Johnstone said: "When used in this way it is purely a means of pain compliance. Yet in several of the cases we reviewed, where it was used for the purpose of gaining compliance, it had the opposite effect, stimulating further resistance.""
> The confidence in rejecting the null model is somehow translated into support for the researcher's favorite theory. How does changing the significance level address this problem?

Not just any old favorite theory. For instance, an excess at a mass of 125 GeV doesn't provide any evidence for a new particle at 2 TeV. It does however provide evidence for a new particle at 125 GeV.

> Eventually the field will stop caring about all actual quantitative predictions (some barely funded crackpots on the edges will publish in ignored journals) and researchers will only test a "null hypothesis" that everyone knows is wrong (eg, in the physics case a world where the standard model is assumed true but has no higgs boson). Then upon rejecting the (known to be false) null hypothesis, they will conclude some theory only capable of vague/malleable predictions is correct.

If that were the case, we would have made a lot more discoveries by now.
Common wisdom around here is that the founders of a private company are generally in a much better position to decide what's best for the company than the investors/VCs. (Which I agree with, though as with everything, there are certainly exceptions.)

If anything, that should be more true when dealing with most investors in public companies, not less.
How is it "customer lock-in"? Git != GitHub, Microsoft doesn't have a say over git.
Okay, I'm all for trying to reduce how often police preemptively escalate by entering homes with guns drawn, but cops shouldn't be blamed for trying to save their own lives.

Suicide by cop often involves drawing a gun on said cop. You don't need to be trigger happy or unaccountable to shoot someone who's pretending to try to shoot you.
Sell the majority of their shares to other people and behave very nicely, doing things against their short and medium term interest, for 15 years.

That's about the minimum, given their track record.

In the meanwhile we can give them increasing credit, if they do behave nicely, but it's absurd to believe that they've suddenly become a good company and that they'll stay like this for the next decades. I have a hard time believing that anyone not payed by them could think so.

And by the way, they have yet to reverse the decidedly un-nice things they have done with Windows 10 in the last years. Allow everyone to disable the telemetry and to better control the updates, and then we can start the 15 years count. Oh yeah, and maybe also stop astroturfing, that's another extremely un-nice thing that they clearly started doing only recently.

There would be nothing wrong in discussing with the people, if they paid people to do so while stating in every message that they're being paid by Microsoft it would be perfectly ok, but that's very different from what they're doing now.

These things make it clear that they're still motherfuckers, just less then they used to be.
Yep, me too (France).
There was a cryptocurrency bubble at the end of last year, and that was the primary driver of GPU prices. New GPUs are almost going for MSRP now.
Note as well that the increase in pay for the average individual will be higher than the average increase. Older, better-payed people are exiting the workforce while younger, less-well-paid people enter the system.
Actually Slashdot effect is 5xx, not 404.
If we are truly at full employment, why aren’t wages rising 3-4%?
Apart from sending state officials to help the suicidal people to once and for all accomplish their spontaneous wish created by a brain malfunction? Maybe check how other countries do this, where less people get shot by police for whatever reason (in which I don't take sides, the cops are only the last elements in a much longer chain and have to deal with everything that went wrong long before as the "solution of last resort - by force").

I also find it fascinating that responses seen in other comments sound completely reasonable (and are reasonable, given the chosen perspective) when they justify that what happened is exactly what had to happen (cops may be called to dangerous places, and it's a fact that that happens to them all the time). Yet, when looking at it from a different, much farther away perspective from a country where I would expect such police behavior only in very few extreme cases (and only carried out by special police forces, of which there are not many), it does not seem reasonable at all. Again, I understand the cops, I might act just like them if I had to live their life. So something other than police tactics may be a causal reason, because if cops actually are in danger routinely than their measures make sense.
I suspect they are talking about the self-hosted version.

You need to throw quite a lot of hardware at it for acceptable performance.
> Why do people continue to want to punish a company for their past when their present has been so good

I don't agree that their present is good.
It also does not seem to be the case, in the U.S. at least, that immigration depresses wages: https://www.brookings.edu/blog/jobs/2012/05/04/what-immigrat...
Worse! Intuit does all my TAX RETURNS.

Tax returns are generally a lot less sensitive than bank/credit card statements. Plus they have your plain text credentials too, so if they get hacked someone could transfer money out of your bank account.
"inflation" is not "cost of living" really.

Cost of living is a variety of factors, moreover, inflation tends to not include housing and fuel. Though there are many measure of inflation ...
"Surplus" is a respectable concept in mainstream economics, e.g. "consumer surplus": https://www.britannica.com/topic/consumer-surplus ; it's not intrinsically linked to labour theory of value, and the statement as written is true.

> The plea for unions is so unique coming from The economist.

The Economist and the FT often say things which are considered "radical" by popular economic discourse standards, because their readers are interested in what's actually happening while the popular discourse is extremely dogmatic and driven by the right.
There's also Goodhart's law: when a measure becomes a target, it ceases to be a good measure.
Great work! I’m Swedish and went to Estonia for a wedding a couple of years ago. I was surprised how well connected the country was to the internet. While surfing Swedish sites in Tallinn it felt like I was surfing from my home in Stockholm. They are really taking internet very serious and taking the lead in many related areas.
I'm somewhat curious about what kind of cooling system Intel was using the other day with their 28 cores at 5 GHz demo/stunt. Some people isolated a frame of the streamed video where it shows the (insulated?) pipes that exit from the case and go behind the desk.

Edit: grammar
I wonder what will be algae/flora impact on a heat exchange after year or two. This thing will be warm and stationary so it will became overgrown really fast.
Lawson fits with SEA.
Rising rent will absolutely be in the inflation number. Sure, it might not be correct if you live in a big city where rents have risen way beyond inflation numbers, but it's good on average.

Every European capital / big city has seen absolutely massive increases in rent and house prises since the ECB started printing money. (Housing sector if very 'close' to the banking sector and so more directly affected by the availability of cheap credit). Not causes by the ECB 100%, but accelerated by it nonetheless.

But if the cost of all other goods has stayed the same, plus the rent and house prises in rural areas has been normal or even dropped, inflation on average will be ok.

(And then the ECB says: inflation is less than 2% _on average_ so no problem here. print. print.. print...)
IPv6 Adoption Still Lags in Federal Agencies
Yeah... good luck with that.

Our Government cant get a simple census, fibre broadband or even site blocking right.
Say what now?

And did Humble Bundle support fix your issue?

Man, I remember when a major Humble Bundle selling point was being DRM free...
Well it's not AI or ML really - it's hand-picked algorithmic composition with additional contributions from human composers.

The holy grail AI composer would be able to generate unique, creative, well-crafted material on demand. Almost every system that has existed thus far generates mostly nonsense, but the results are tweaked or hand-selected by humans. Those that don't hand-select are the ones that sound algorithmic and computer-generated to anyone with remote music ability. That's why the current state-of-the-art in on-demand music generation sounds like elevator music - and to a trained musician you can still tell there's something "off" about it (Jukedeck, etc.).
>Please reserve comment about the "cost of living" or inflation, as those are (technically) accounted for in this number.

But all of them or missing some? In Canada there are various inflation calculators: CPI, CPIX, SHS, MEANSTD, CPIW, price-level targeting, all including or excluding various things like gasoline, transit, mortgages, some taxes, tobacco.
"...a splash of colour may grab the reader's attention, but it will inevitably decrease the legibility of the text."

This depends entirely on the content of the text. Stories, fiction, non-fiction, reference material ... information where one human is intending to communicate with another human should limit use of color.

For source code, that humans do read but is intended to be parsed and compiled by a computer, I'm not assembling (in my head) the whimsical trials of a protagonist - I need to see structure; color gives me a quicker overview of the structure of a line, function, class, etc.
Re "uninformed", I think it's more a question of whose interest is at stake. For the health of the suicidal person (which I assume is the angle the mental health experts are coming from) it's very dangerous for the first contact to be armed police because there's a large risk that they'll be shot.

It could also be true that it's safer for the police, bystanders, and even those mental health experts themselves, for the first contact to be armed police.

But that scenario is just another one to add to the US gun control debate. Generally speaking, this stuff hardly ever occurs in other countries. It's a special US thing.
Well of course such a number can. You just calculate average price increases, weighed by their share of spending (a 1% increase in healthcare has more implications than a 1% increase in telephone bills) to the best of your ability.

The question is, how good is the approximation and how meaningful is an average statistic?

The statistic is useful and meaningful, but doesn't say everything. Fortunately we have hundreds of inflation metrics, for different groups (urban, rural), age groups, countries, states, regions and sectors.

Virtually none of these are published in media outside the general CPI measure, but all can be found on government/centralbank/consultants etc websites, typically with methodological sections explaining how they came to their conclusions.

For example: https://www.bls.gov/cpi/home.htm

Here you can find various inflation figures, methodology and data.
Police entering someone’s home are going to have to be prepared even if there was a very low chance of encountering someone with a gun. If you’re going into a house and you don’t know where someone is, pretty much any kind of lethal weapon is going to be a serious risk. If they weren’t risking being shot, they’d be risking being stabbed.
Perhaps not, but it does allow you to learn to grow your own food and fix your own car, and all manner of other things.

Most people use it for entertainment but we really are spoiled with the amount of information at our fingertips. The good will of professionals sharing their know-how online has helped my career grow and made me much more self-sufficient in other areas.

Tangentially regarding wage growth, sure growing some of my food or fixing my car is a net-loss in terms of potential earnings because of the invested time, it's well worth it in other respects. Also, developed countries have a pretty good standard of living already. Needless consumption is a greater problem IMO.
And early Snapdragon, no?
You'd have 5 main accounts there.

Income:Job
Asset:Bank1
Asset:Bank2
Expenses:whatever
Liabilities:whatever

And then each transaction moves the money from one account to another. Income->Asset, Asset->Expenses, etc. Value moves into the system from income, Expenses are (more or less) transactions where value moves out of the accounting system. You track your salary but probably not the hours you work and that you spent $50 on food (Asset->Expenses:Food) but not the food.

Equity is mostly just the offsetting account for balances that aren't tracked more specifically. So beginning balances are booked against equity instead of coming from some source of income.

Liabilities are amounts that you owe. When you buy something on credit, you are receiving the thing, so you book a transaction (booking an expense against the liability). Then later you book another transaction to pay for the thing (booking a decrease in assets against the liability).

Accounts receivable and accounts payable come up because businesses care about how (and when) they recognize payments and non payments and so on. For personal accounting just put money you owe as a liability and money you are owed as an asset.
This seems clearly true for highly regional things like rent but probably not true for non-regional things like the price of a camera on Amazon. Those are likely to be well-described by inflation numbers.
Annoyingly bipartisan efforts, I completely forgot about that ridiculous filter.
> I don't know. Everyone has kids. Having kids is technically making an impact, but I think that when most people say they want to make an impact, or to accomplish something great, or to change the world, they don't mean by doing something that almost everyone else does.

I guess that's what the "help getting over it" part was referring to. In your teens/early twenties you dream of changing the world, and after reality sank in, you do the next best thing and go for kids because you shape them and so live on through them, mission accomplished, impact has been made. Humans are great at bullshitting themselves. (Not trying to sound harsh or implying kids are worthless or anything, but it really seems to be a fallback plan for a lot of people)
Psychiatric drugs are too profitable, and sanitariums threatens the constant invention and sale of expensive psychiatric drugs.

Although in my opinion nobody should ever be involuntarily committed. They should have to commit a crime, and there should be special prisons for the mentally ill. Otherwise consent of the patient or a legal guardian should be required. It’s sort of a slippery slope to allow people to be declared insane by the state and locked away with little or no physical evidence.

When setting up production clusters via kops on AWS I opt for c4.large instances for the master, which with a HA quorum costs $250/month. If you use the default master instance type in kops, m3.medium, it's around $174/month. I fail to see the problem with AWS charging $150/month for a fully managed alternative.
Inflation only measures price for certain products but it doesn't cover quality or quantity decrease which decreased considerably for most products over the years.
It's a mantra that the military use. Train, train, train and fail in training because you can't fail in the real fight. If you read "can't fail" as "can't afford to fail" rather than "failure is an impossibility" you'll get the intent.
I’ve read of some horror stories around ascap suing various bars and restaurants [0], and that seems like something that I would want no part of as a developer, user, or company. As a music lover, this seems like a system that causes much harm and has been opposed to file sharing and free information sharing.
