Ask HN: What's your recommendation for the most awesome multi-site generator?
I am looking for something that can:
1. Create a website and deploy it with a click of a button. (automatically styled or generates new styles with predefined themes.)
2. Does not have to be wordpress, but okay with WordPress
3. Content can be added via a feed. For example, if I have 10 sites, I write 5 posts, I want to be able to assign them to a specific site with a checkbox and click publish. Eliminate manual logging in / publishing stuff site by site.
4. Can manage all ad / paid placement spots and affiliate text areas in one area. So, basically an option to put the same ad content across all sites, or choose individually what goes where.

I google'd around a bit but did not see anything that meets all of this criteria (unless I overlooked it).

Much appreciated!!
Without profitability they cannot survive. The industry as a whole is in decline. People are not as willing to pay for content and ad revenue is not as profitable. But, more importantly, ad revenue also makes what little content is left more susceptible to manipulation vs actually reporting the facts. Compared to how many of these news outlets used to be, many of the local ones today are complete garbage. Lots of poorly written, if it bleeds it leads types of articles etc..
Just augmenting other replies a tiny bit:
> Money sitting on a bank ledger can't do nearly as much as money in a venture capital fund. You have to be careful with taxes to make sure you don't dis-incentivize investment too much.

Money never sits around, especially in banks. (And when "it does" it's because they are playing games with the government.) For every dollar in your account, you can bet they are lending "3 dollars", (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fractional-reserve_banking).

It is important to realize that a bank's liabilities are your deposits. You deposit $2000, they write down liabilities $2000. Their assets are their loans, credit card revenue, derivatives owned etc. That's why you are owed an interest. Their job is to use your money to make money. Insurance companies (health, car, ...) and retirement funds work the same. Their advantage over you is that they manage a big sum of money, which gives them access to better-term investing deals, full-time (and knowledgeable supposedly...) personnel for investing etc.

Thus, despite what any of the above institutions, might want you to think, they really want your money; the problem is you don't see any part of the capital gains produced practically.

"The only way that money sits, is if it is under your bed or you burned it."

Anyone have a better article addressing the question in the title? This one felt more like a grab bag of basic terminology with a little bit of history thrown in - less how they work and more of how to compare specs of related cards.

As an aside, untextured polygons is making a huge comback as an art style. I can't think of it even having been common in early era of GPU's like the article suggests. I personally really like the look but it could end up over used just like other lofi styles. Strangely it's referred to as "low poly" even though the defining feature is lack of textures and often the poly count is fairly high, it's just not hidden from view.
This is working with nature, which results in highly efficient parenting — vs fighting nature in the name of convenience, ending up facing the consequences and wasting magnitudes more time in the process.

Very true. But there is no problem with apple, in fact Safari is first browser that is clearing cookies - ITP(2). I use uBlock Origin on Safari and Private browsing - no cookies at all.
REST is not intended to be a RPC protocol. Comparing it to one isn't appropriate.

The point of REST is to totally and generally describe the semantics of a networked application's state transitions and is protocol-agnostic. GRPC exists to invoke remote functions.

Why use REST? That's well-documented in Fielding's thesis [1]. Use the appropriate architecture for the appropriate task.

I suffer from clinical depression. Talking absolutely helped me, as did medication and cognitive behavioral therapy. But when suicide is on one’s mind, there is no time to make an appointment. Sometimes the act of talking it out with a third party can help give you the strength you need to seek a more effective treatment.

I’m sorry that talk therapy didn’t work for you. It has, however, shown to be effective at disarming suicidal thoughts long enough for other outcomes to seem attainable.

> Want to know what data of yours, if any, is being collected? Look at the code.

I find this to be an extremely un-compelling position. A relatively small proportion of the general population has the skills to meaningfully look at the code, never mind the time. Moreover, even for someone who is capable, such an exercise quickly becomes non-trivial on an unfamiliar codebase for an app of any complexity.

In many cases there's also no guarantee that the code you're reading is the code that's running.
Let's consider the incentives in each case and how they enable you to distribute your trust. Apple is a for-profit, publicly traded corporation. Their purpose is to make money, and they will likely do whatever they can to achieve that. More importantly, only they can see their code, not you and not other users. All you can possibly have is their word, and they will say whatever it takes to sell you their product. If they lie or exaggerate, there's no way you or anyone else could know.

On the other hand, open source projects come in all shapes and sizes. Generally, they have a strong community of both developers and users around them. If you don't feel like looking at the code, you don't even have to trust the project itself. You can look to the community and its abundance of users, at least a few of which have audited the code and share your use case. And these users aren't just neutral third parties. Nay, they're better than that. They, too, value their own privacy, and are therefore motivated to protect it.

> I find this to be an extremely un-compelling position

It's more damaging than that. The bundling of privacy and FOSS advocacy weakens the former. Few without deep technical knowledge is sympathetic to FOSS. The potential audience for a privacy pitch is broader. By bundling the two, however, the technical advocacy community limits the appeal of the former to those supporting the latter. This is an issue because the opponents of privacy rights are not similarly limited. Hence, we find ourselves reliant on Google, Apple, Facebook and Amazon being benevolent dictators, in their services and Washington.

The advantage is real. If you don't claim your space in the isle, you will likely be overtaken by more than one person.

Also, by standing up late, when everyone is already moving, you will be hindering everyone by only getting your overhead luggage then. Of course nobody will want to let you ahead of them, because they know you just want a space to stand so you fiddle with the overhead bin for a while.
The worst thing, the absolute worst thing is, you know all that but you have gotten so used to the way Google services work, that you simply have a hard time to switch.

E.g. thank to Gmail I rarely use an email application on my computer and use webmail. When I tried out Posteo it was extremely annoying that it logged me out every few minutes and I couldn't get my email. They said this couldn't be changed.

Google really did an excellent job of supply me with services which I want to use. Not just tools which are working well.

BTW, Google doesn't use all its services to sell or personalise ads. Which doesn't mean they don't use them to learn more about you which in turn is used to improve the services so that you them even more.

So as much as I wish I could restore my privacy by leaving Google, I think Google knows me too well that I won't for now.
> None of my personal data / content is scanned or looked at (I think?)

How can you say "for privacy [...] it's been amazing" if you haven't even checked?

They do say "Google does not collect, scan, or use your data in G Suite services for advertising purposes" and "Google does not sell [your] data to third parties" which mostly covers it, though (although ideally they'd strengthen the wording in the first part to say they don't use your data for any purposes other than to provide it to you... but now I'm just being picky.)

well, if you're talking about limited AR such as in HUDs or Pokemon Go or glass, that's already here and it's cool and useful, but not very exciting (at least to me). No doubt AR will be a thing in everyday life. I don't see why people (myself included) talk about both technologies (AR & VR) as if its a zero-sum game and we'll only have one but not the other. No reason they both can't exist in the brave new future.

Outlook's focused and other segregation works well enough for me. I like the fact that in case of a miscategorization, it gives you very clear and explicit knobs to turn. Gmail classification always remains somewhat mysterious to me.
This implementation looks a lot like HW TCP offload engines where the kernel handles session creation and termination and the HW takes care of most of the state machine. Apple then must have found some way to hide the handling of ancillary tasks from the user in a way that does not cripple the protocol. They may have added hooks in the main application loop but my guess is that they are running separate threads to avoid having the application hanging the main thread in a non-returning loop and prevent these ancillary tasks from running (some are time sensitive). This means that their TCP user-space session management is most likely multi-threaded, which has a detrimental impact on performance due to the use of locks and the consequential cache pollution.
Can you explain please why is that ? btw I'm coming from a JS/Node background, but I worked with C and C++ before (mainly school projects, nothing serious).
Maybe I'm just noticing it more, but I think there's more discussion of how to write C well than there used to be. I speculate that the attention Rust has brought to safe systems programming has caused an uptick in interest in closer-to-the-metal languages in general, and spurred C programmers to show that there are reasonable ways to write C as well. It may be an unanticipated result of Rust's popularity that the quality of C programming improves. (Or perhaps that was the plan all along?)
I don't disagree that Apple looks really good nowadays from a privacy perspective. They treat their customers with respect and don't sell their data.... until they do.

So, I will do as much as I can without destroying the practical aspect of things.
Also, the idea is to create it in a way, someone could actually build it (solder it) by hand... So I need to take that into account as well...
If you are referring to "Advances in Networking, part 1" [0], the material used is a little thin to draw any conclusion regarding their user-space TCP/IP design.

no, I had to learn about function pointers through my work with MUDs, had a nice curiosity to go along with it, and an excitement when I figured out how powerful they were.

Narrow answer: the maintenance calories thing was implicit in my original comment (in the "and leave everything else about your life equal," i.e., in addition to the stuff you're already eating, which is presumably hovering around some equilibrium).

Broad answer: the number of people who struggle with their weight is pretty good evidence that the main challenge is, in fact, to not overeat for millions of people.

No wonder. Pretty soon we'll see these stories from USA too, given how many retards are electing to leave their children unvaccinated. Even if the ridiculous theory of autism from vaccines is true, I'd rather my child be an autist than suffer from polio.

I absolutely agree with you that it's usually better to be an expert in one language than an amateur in a dozen of them.It's not really for a career thing right now, but I like to expand my knowledge especially in systems programming languages, but if Rust become widely adopted, I will be more than happy that I made the right decision to learn it.

I know that apple Mail and ProtonMail's are enabled by default. Don't know about others - I don't use them, but I expect it to be same, as defaults are always set for user convenience, not privacy.

> The total ban does mean that only criminals can produce pornography, and criminals by their nature don't have the moral qualms with committing further crimes.

There are two parts here.

First is the tautological nature of your first sentence; if it is banned, then by definition the creation of such makes one a "criminal", where it would seem that you infer a class of person in the first sentence.

Given a potential misreading of the first portion, the second is clearer:

> and criminals by their nature don't have the moral qualms with committing further crimes.

Again, you assign "nature" to a "class" by definition. It may be legal to murder / sentence to death someone over gender, race, selling alcohol or marijuana, or otherwise. Even sitting in a bus in the wrong spot could result in being labeled a criminal.

I am reasonably certain you didn't intend to paint the above examples of criminality as somehow correlating to a lack of morality. "Further crimes" is a slippery slope trope, where no such predicate exists without examining the contexts of the initial crime. Again, think about sitting on a bus in the wrong spot. “Serial offenders” here might be celebrated later.

Hence the caution against using the term. There are a good number of laws currently that, after some duration of time, may seem anywhere from dated to outright bigoted / horrible. "Criminality" is a social construct, and as such, we should be skeptical and careful about the erroneous connective tissue between criminality and some sort of Humanist trait attachment.

I feel like the author dismissed Nim pretty unfairly. Github stars and issues are one signal for a project status, but its hardly conclusive. Nim's development has been pretty consistent and is approaching 1.0. Ultimately, a lot of language choice is subjective, but I think anyone looking for a language in the fast-but-expressive category should at least try Nim.

As a Rubyist, I was about to jump on the Crystal train, but then server-side Swift started getting really good. Crystal is awesome, but I feel it’s not solving any problem particularly better than Swift. With Swift being compilable even on a Raspberry Pi and of course Linux and Mac, it seems like Crystal is now a solution in search of a problem. Definitely a great language, but probably destined to be relatively niche in production contexts simply because the community is so small and it’s loosely competing against the rapidly maturing Swift world.
One of the things I've learned from my own experience is that meeting new people or meeting like minded people is the easy part. To make new friends you have to meet them over and over for no reason (think about it it's true for all your best friends).
