Howdoo: leading towards the novel dimensions of social interaction
You may have caught wind of the rising social ecocommunity the "Howdoo". If not yet then here it is. Howdoo is the adaptable blockchain world solving issues identified with e-communication and its current platfroms. With the Howdoo which is Ethereum, AI and smart contract based decentralized stage; the clients will have a social framework to interact with loved ones with complete security and protection.
howdoo guarantees to keep the protection and security of content its individuals. There will be zero percent content taking as making content holds great significance here. . The content creation is fairly rewarded and remunerated only to the original creator after verification via Proof of contribution (POC).
Advertisements through the informal social platforms is a typical method, yet the clients are not rewarded in any way, but these centralized networks charge publicists for this promotion. Unlike them, the Howdoo is going to reward its user for viewing and responding ads.
To become the member of this new social world, the crypto token uDoo must be bought. The token’s pre-sale is live till June 12, 2018 with $0.10/uDoo token price. Till this date approximately 60% hardcap have been met. However, Howdoo team planned to launch the official public platform till March 2019.

This, plus the effect the second hand market has. You can pick up older-gen iPad Air's for $180.

The top brand tablets (e.g. Apple) will keep their performance really well. They don't struggle from laptop's getting filled with crap and slowing down, which used to happen for most computer users, or struggled to keep battery life as much as many laptops. And they never struggled with the phone upgrade path of 2 years due to a better camera, new battery and fashion.

The second hand market allows you to pick up pretty cheap tablets which are useful for all intents and purposes of most people owning a tablet. (bigger-than-phone consumption device of netflix, news, magazines, books and a spotify remote).

The EU is already targetting Open Source in the new legislation. We should start making a stronger case for the internet while we still have it. The Pirate Party tends to be the best resource for the support, they organise petitions and have elected officials in the Parliament.
The selection of Credit/Debit in the US is misleading, as it refers to either Visa/MasterCard (credit) or the domestic payment processing of US cards (debit).

International cards always need to be ran as credit in the US, not matter if it is credit, debit or prepiad.

Okay sure. Someone recreate and test this hypothesis please. My Google photos is filled with pictures of crap to remember BECAUSE my ADHD impairs my memory.
The US already kills a lot of people with drone strikes based on highly questionable intelligence. I’m not sure how involving “AI” would make the process of deciding who to kill any less arbitrary.

Yeah from what I have heard the main reason for this law is to stop obvious abuses to people's privacy. It seems that most overreactions are due to ignorance of the system behind the law or to make some kind of political statement.

Trump: Announced the end of the war on the Korean peninsula
So far as I can tell from quick reading, PG&E's lobbying is focused on:

1. Pushing liability for disasters (natural and artificial) from the company onto customers and taxpayers.

2. Getting regulators to allow them to lower the safety margins on their infrastructure (a major cause behind the San Bruno explosion).

3. Fighting Community Choice Aggregation programs, which sound most similar to what you describe.

CCA programs are not as you described - they would not remove PG&E from the electricity market in cities. Rather, they allow cities to generate or purchase their own electricity and deliver it over PG&E grids. As I described, this takes away PG&E's major revenue stream (per-kWh rates) while leaving them with their fixed cost (grid maintenance).
Since early in my career when hiring I've found developers who only know 'jQuery / Angular / Vue / React' but not the underlying Javascript, I swear "x is the new y" is said every time a new framework gets 6 months into vogue.

If all you want is Netflix/Plex and books then Amazon’s Fire tablets are great. I have one I mainly keep in the kitchen so I can watch TV while cooking and it’s been great, although I’m tempted to get one of the newer models for Alexa support.
In the simplest case there is a default state (e.g. eyes have color of whatever pigment just happen to be produced there as a sideeffect of important genes). And then there are genes that override this default. They may disable the normal pigment genes, they may produce additional pigment, they may break down pigment. These genes can then exist in variants (alleles). Following the example, they may produce pigment molecules with different colors.

In the absence of selection pressure the override genes will mutate randomly. The end state of that process are broken genes that don't do much of anything (loss of function), and so the color goes back to the default.

For human eyes, the default is blue eyes and there are then some genes that overrides this by producing melanin, which turns the eyes brown.
I use a 12.9” iPad Pro for most tablet purposes which is superior for me for everything except ebooks. It’s perfect for comics and PDFs and many games and it’s my laptop replacement when I travel (as an Old I prefer a real desktop computer, not a laptop, for day to day work).

I agree that an ereader is ideal when compared with a small tablet; the Kobo Aura One is the perfect size and aspect ratio (7.9”, 4x3) for me but it doesn’t sync sideloaded books, and is a bit slow, and has no hardware buttons. But it does have Pocket as you mentioned which is pretty nice. A few reading-focused apps would indeed be welcome on ereaders.

Overall Android had an advantage over iOS at first in its support for multiple phone sizes. But this just doesn’t scale well to tablets. You need separate human-designed tablet apps just like you can’t hope to have automatic layouts that scale between phones and desktops. I think Apple’s support for different sizes of screen is actually better than Android’s now, with different compact and normal portrait and landscape modes. The ironic thing is that a decent iPad layout for an iPhone app doesn’t need to take longer than an afternoon.

I'm not really sure why you think this. So, the EU should just let companies steal and sell their citizen's information? I mean, IIRC companies can have separate privacy policies for non-EU users. Also, you have a very narrow view of how information is "given" and collected. Literally using the internet is "giving away" your data.

> It is bad practice to have git data lying around among otherwise public files

Usually I have source files in a “src” subdirectory and assets in an “assets” subdirectory and configure the web server to serve from these two subdirectories.

So the git repo root is one level above anything served by the web server.
I expect that it will take some time for people to create backends for the new flymake. In my opinion it's too early to switch back.

Ask HN: Any more differences to the hospital systems between US and China?
In China, much more systems are deployed in hospitals, including desktop based and web apps. Some web apps are still only designed for IE. Chinese doctors are working on shift and it is not happy to jump between dozens of apps, that is the reason we developed tydesk, https://github.com/tydesk/tydesk, which is basically a home page for all of the other apps, also includes some fancy features for IT automation, message integration, single sign on. Please let me know if any comments from your country. Thanks.

It has to just be talking about the historical context of it. The modern take (which they also mention) is providing cheese (flavored things) that is shelf stable.

I say this because nowadays peanut butter is a cheaper source of protein pretty much universally. I've known people to buy peanut butter for exactly that reason, protein at the cheapest cost (and with a reasonable breakdown of other macronutrients to boot); I've never known anyone to buy cheese (flavored things) for that reason.

Most animal diets are not rich in vitamin C. Meat and leaves have minimal vitamin C for example. Humans evolved to conserve vitamin C and eat a much wider diet than most mammals. Without that deer for example might occasionally get enough Vitamin C, but would quickly get scurry at various times of the year.
Rules for Biologically Inspired Adaptive Network Design
Have you had more positive experiences with any native alternative? My experience with em has generally been that they work well until you want to customize things.

I think people tend to seriously underestimate the complexity involved in dealing with layout and styles. CSS has some poor defaults and plenty of quirks, but it's also incredibly powerful and not that difficult if you bother taking the time to learn it properly. You are struggling because you have not learned to use the tool correctly.

Try implementing a few basic layout algorithms as a weekend project. I believe it'll change your view of CSS.
Ask HN: Are personal websites not allowed here?
Hi everyone, long term HN user here. Recently I updated my website[0] and put a lot of work and detail into it, so I shared it to HN to see opinions about it. I followed HN rules the best I could, with the title reading:

> Show HN: Francisco.io – my new developer website

Few hours later I saw it had 37 votes. This was around double of the, at that moment, top Show HN link (which was submitted at the same time) but my link was nowhere in the Show HN nor in the main page. Comments were picking up steam until they stopped at a moment. I can see some of my submissions as [flagged] but this one was never flagged. These strongly lead me to believe my website was taken down by an admin.

So the question is, are developers portfolios/personal websites disallowed here? I have reviewed several times the guidelines (before and after) but found nothing, besides the obvious "Show HN". I feel like developer websites might fit within what other devs/hackers find interesting.

Or carrying them up a flight of stairs on your back. I think peak power is more important than work here. The peak power to throw someone 3 metres into the air is ludicrous, but arresting a fall over a (slightly) longer time period, with bones and ligaments taking the peak power instead of muscles are what is going on.

That's interesting, I didn't know there were official statistics. It's a lot more than I would have guessed, given the official recommended maximum consumption of pilot whale [1] is 300g per month per adult. 50,000 people [2] gives 180,000 kg per year.

An average mass for a pilot whale might be 1300 kg, of which perhaps half is edible [4].

That means 275 whales is more than enough, yet over double that is caught in the average year.

Presumably, many people aren't bothered by the toxins.

I don't presume to be an expert on history (only entered the webdev domain in 2010), but didn't prototype come out at least a couple of years after jQuery?
My understanding was that pathogens are frowned upon because of their mutability. There is a high risk that you end up killing people you weren't targeting...namely your own citizens after your bioweapon mutates into something you don't possess a cure for.

This is not the same problem posed by AI sorting of imagery (Maven) or armed UAVs in general.

That's kind of an odd way of phrasing it; I would have said something along the lines of them providing the upwards force through tension rather than bringing power into the discussion.

Did you note the context of my message?

Parent had said that only the presidential elections need to be single-winner.

In Australia the head of government is the Prime Minister - curiously the specifics of that role are absent from our constitution, as it was evidently assumed to be a given. Head of State remains the reigning monarch of the Commonwealth, but that's a slight aside.

Prime Minister is not elected by the gen pop, despite many citizens of AU believing it to be the case. The 150 elected representatives in the parliament actually choose amongst them who the Prime Minister shall be -- a potentially very civilised approach to leadership elections.

Anyway, I'm not sure that I can defend myself against your claims about my personal observations.

Perhaps you could give it a go, and see if you get the same trends of responses that I described.

You're responding to someone who is surprised by there being font issues. If it was a common sight, they wouldn't complain about it like this.

And it really is not a common sight. I have not had any problems with fonts in the three years that I'm using Linux.
From the guidelines[0]:

> What to Submit: On-Topic: Anything that good hackers would find interesting.

> In Submissions: ... Please don't post on HN to ask or tell us something.

To the best of my knowledge you can submit personal sites, but some people may flag it. That's up to them. To the best of my knowledge the mods won't interfere unless the submission flagrantly contravenes the guidelines, which yours doesn't (as far as I can tell).

But the best thing to do is ask them. In the main, we can't tell if something got flagged, or modded down, or whatever. Only they can tell you what happened.

Mail the mods and ask. They are friendly.

But I feel that "Show HN" isn't a suitable format for just showing your personal web site. It's more for products or projects.

I'd submit your articles as regular submissions, if I were you.

I think this is a scary precedent to set that the biggest bully on the block can de facto enforce such standards because the rest of the world is terrified of the consequences of standing up to them

Precedent? It's hardly the first time one powerful body politic has enforced its own standards on others. A very, very, very long way from the first time.
I would do the same, but as of this year battery recharge times of my Nexus 7 tablet got longer and longer until it died by running out of battery while charging. Hardware doesn't last forever. It will be missed.

The article is correct that tablet replacement rates are low. But that's not zero. And there is a lack of modern replacements.

I've been looking around but I expected there to be a "this years model" with a new-ish processor, high-res screen, USB-C and a recent build of Android.
> CSS Grid works with all major evergreen browsers, but Internet Explorer - which sadly still has significant browser share - is not supported by CSS Grid.

Well, it does support Grid, just an older, prefixed version of the spec, with plenty of bugs. With autoprefixer (which I use via postcss-cssnext), you have to deliberately enable IE grid support (config option `grid: true`), and then it will block you from doing things in Grid that IE definitely doesn’t cope with, and you will still sometimes have to make adjustments to get it to work (e.g. IE has no qualms about stacking content in the same cell, so you may need to specify locations rather than using auto layout), but it hasn’t been too bad for most stuff I’ve done so far.

IE’s share steadily shrinks, and what remains consolidates around IE11. These days I’d say that the vast majority of developers should care a little about IE11 (my rule of thumb is to ensure everything works, but some ugliness or deviation from design is acceptable), possibly a bit about IE9, and definitely not at all about any other version of IE.

Just wait another two years and then you can forget about IE for good, or something. ;-)
have git data lying around among otherwise public files

There are almost no public files on a server these days. It's mostly backend code generating output by combining data from databases and templates. So since it's already all non public stuff, I don't see a problem having the .git folder there too.

> From the article: "It appears over the course of the next 2,000 years, the Old World male population plummeted to one-twentieth of what it had been beforehand"

With that said, let me rephrase then...the "rise" of the "violence gene profile":

1) Was more effective in some parts of the world then in others.

2) That profile is still with us today. Perhaps not as dominant but none rhe less not gone.

3) We may think we're a peace loving species but our gene pool says other wise.

Again, yesterday's "winning effort" is today's murder. Today's mental health issues arw yesterday's hero (e.g., an unfiltered willingness to kill).

We can talk about being rational, intelligent, etc. but the fact is we still have a gene pool that historically says otherwise.

I will also contact the admins separately, thanks for the tip.
Considering GDPR is actually a thing from 2016, and 25th May only marked the day from which on it would actively be enforced... that kind of comes late.

What I wonder: this is an Open Source project, so why not ask the community for help instead?

Being a long-time (very happy) Drone user, I would have happily helped to produce the necessary documents for the project if that had been asked before the final deadline.

Well, probably would even do that now.

"Violence is absolutely part of human nature. Serial killers are probably pathological but mass murder is definitely within normal human behaviour. The Mongols were less especially brutal than especially organised, ditto for the Nazis at a later date.

Kill everybody and take their land is more or less what happened to both the Neanderthals and the first H. Sapiens in Europe. Kill all the men is practically a humanitarian innovation."

That's the crux of my point. My sense is there's a perception that humans are "highly advanced" and that (e.g.) people with violent tendencies are highly "abnormal" and should - in extreme cases - be put to death.

The irony being their genes are what saved the species in previous generations. But today those genes are not advantageous.
