You really shouldn't downplay the issue. From what I've read, the issue of peeping toms is a real issue in SK, especially given the gender norms there. That said, of course people should be mindful of unintended consequences or the co-opting of movements for women's right like these recent SK protests specifically to push in culturally conservative directions. SK has in the past been more receptive to a strong government in the private realm including censorship of satire and the like. This was under the previous government that was at the center of a corruption drama but those elements still exist of course.

I guess what I mean is both could and might be true: molka is a problem and it is being used to push the society in culturally conservative directions.
>Japan didn't say "we surrender". They didn't say "we don't surrender". Not literally. It's more comparable to "Yeah we definitely should hang out some time!". It's not the words that matter there. It's the meaning. And the meaning was unclear. And that was, to the US, unacceptable while people were dying every day.

And that was, to the US, unacceptable while the USSR was closing in on Japan from the other side, and they had two perfectly good bombs they wanted to test and send a clear, post-WWII-era message.

I wouldn't call dropping two nuclear bombs on civilians (men, women, and children) a concern for the human toll. Not even conventional bombing (which had gone on for a while) was needed at that point, Japan was giving up the ghost and just wanted to save some face.
Some but not all of them might just do it to appease/shut up the whining one. So there is still a higher conversion rate from taking the whining approach.

So why don't we all whine?

This I have asked of shouting. Normally I politely ask people to do things with a friendly tone of voice. However there have been moments, e.g. on-coming car catastrophe, where I have shouted at people and been surprised at how quickly people move or do as they are told. Shocked at being heard and being 'obeyed' I have wondered why I don't do it more often. I dismiss the idea as it is not me and contradicts many aspects of my upbringing. But you can see how it is that some people get what they want in the world by shouting/whining or being a general narcissist.
Really no, look at all the comments here (and this is only from techies): you have lost us, we don't know anymore what you are doing, or even trying to do.
You're completely and utterly ignoring the fact that raising children, especially multiple ones, is an extremely difficult task, even for two people. I know of very few people who would opt to do it themselves, even if the financial incentives to do so were worth it (they aren't even close).

I just want to point out there are a lot of poor women raising significant numbers of children. The woman next to my mom has 5-7 (it's hard to tell, and she just had a new one). They father (of some of them) is around a little, but mostly not around. And it looks like there are several fathers. Yes, raising children well is hard, but I would not describe what this woman does as difficult. Older kids are raising the younger ones, etc, etc.

So, I would definitely disagree with your assertion.
See, that's the problem - it's not a real "need" - I have 2 old laptops I don't want to throw out. If I was donating them, my need would vanish ;)

Sorry if it sounded like complaining, it wasn't my intention. I just think x86 is dying a slow death, there are not many "enthusiasts" like for e.g. 1980s or 1990s hardware where you have "this one ancient build everyone uses", but x86 has no discernible advantage over x64 these days (please don't name the the RAM requirements for 32 bit builds now :P) - so x64 is in 99% of cases superior and that's why it's rightfully supported. e.g. VAX, Sun SGI and C64 stuff is exciting, x86 in the age of x64 is just "older and slower" to most people.
Well, as the Italians put it succinctly (and in rhyme): "Traduttori traditori" ("translators are traitors") -- they betray the original work.
Everyone is fine with you being privacy conscious to some degree. It's when you start telling them that they should be too that it tends to get a negative response.

I'd argue that this is why the GP succeeds in their B/C tests - because they made it about their own choices. In A it's trying to convince the other party of a position on privacy instead which is, unsurprisingly, a lot harder

Pulp Fiction is probably also a good example for this.

The famous joke

>"Three tomatoes are walking down the street -- a poppa tomato, a momma tomato, and a little baby tomato. Baby tomato starts lagging behind. Poppa tomato gets angry, goes over to the baby tomato, and squishes him... and says, 'Catch up.' "

Instead of "Catch up", they translated "Ketchup".

But as "Ketchup" doesn't sound like the German "Catch up", it sounded like an anti-joke.
In my experience none of those folks are paying for support.

I mostly agree, with a few caveats:

> In fact, they'll never take away existing welfare programs in favor of UBI--they'll just add UBI on top of it. Think of the children, they'll say.

They won't even have to say that.

The idea that the poorest among us have the financial literacy to be simply given money, budget appropriately, and spend with proper prioritization is empirically false. That's a big part of the value of food stamps, subsidized housing, Medicaid, and similar programs: They only apply to a very specific thing. You can't plan poorly and spend too much on your food stamps and be unable to come up with rent.

With UBI replacing those programs, it will happen, so I expect the "you won't need those programs with UBI" premise to be dropped pretty early on.

> No one is happier NOT working. People are happy when they are productive members of society.

I think people can be happy as long as they think they are contributing to society, even if they are actively making it worse. For a lot of them, I think there will be plenty of union power and political activism among this large group of bankrolled, but unemployed people with plenty of free time. Those people will be able to find happiness and meaning through activism.
That's Linux Desktop distributions in a nutshell though isn't it? None of them are really different enough from Ubuntu to be noteworthy.

Personally, I think the fact that so many minor-variant distros exist is all the evidence you need that Linux is a terrible platform for customization, because if it were simple to customize everyone would just use Ubuntu and make their own changes, but instead you get all these distros.

The general idea in Sweden used to be that en criminals should become rehabilitated, rather than punished.

The crime rate is much lower than US, but I doubt it's related to the relatively lenient sentences. Right now it seems to attract burglars from our eastern neighbours more than anything else, since they risk 3-4 month in jail compared to up to 10 years...

I also doubt that many people gets "rehabilitated" in Swedish prisons - probably higher risk they are recruited to ISIS. I think the trend is that you either never do another crime again, or you continue until you either die or get old.

Because of that, I would personally like to see much harsher punishments for crimes that involves physical violence (or threats thereof) and especially repeated offences - which is more or less not considered at all in Sweden, just to get rid of the criminals from the streets for longer periods, and also stop the recruiting into the growing number of criminal gangs.

First semester of college, I took multivariate. That was kind of a mess, because instead of a textbook we got a "bound" compilation of our professor's notes that he was trying to turn into a textbook. It has been some time, but I kept lots of math books from college, and I specifically threw that thing out. My recollection is that it was pretty much worthless.
Sorry, I wasn't meaning to downplay the issue. What I am question is how the issue is handled. Going around looking for hidden cameras apparently haven't yielded any result, nor have it addressed the underlying issue.

Since it seems that many people here are unaware, so let me introduce Pico-8, the "Fantasy Video Game console" that is referenced in Pyxel's README as an inspiration: https://www.lexaloffle.com/pico-8.php

Pico-8 is (AFAIK) the program that kicked off a trend of simple game engines, and it is by far the most popular. A popular game that came out this year, Celeste, was originally a Pico-8 game that proved popular enough to remake in a more modern game engine. Pico-8 supports a Lua API, with a built-in graphics editor for 8x8 sprites, and a 4-channel audio editor. Games can be exported as a PC/Mac/Linux binary, into HTML+JS for embedding into a webpage, and even as a PNG for easy sharing to other users with the Pico-8 program. There's also a very active BBS where 'cartridges' can be shared and played online: https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?cat=7#mode=carts

I'm a relatively novice programmer, and one of the things that frustrated me was how difficult it was to make a simple game on modern machines. I didn't want to have to set up a whole Unity project or dive into OpenGL just for a little proof of concept. I've been heavily using Pico-8 and really recommend it for simple game programming. There's also a hashtag on Twitter (if you're into that sort of thing), #pico8, where people try to create interesting visual code golf programs that fit into the size of a Tweet, then they post the source code and a gif.

I figured these were a step further towards MLM: a single company selling individuals signs and a generic dating site for $3000 or whatever and promising them a portion of the proceeds. That way the central company never has to plant signs or study the local market, etc.

There's also a handwritten sign for a dating site in my city I've seen a couple places now. It's not obviously hyperlocal so I imagine it's someone's actual "I'm going to be the next Zuckerberg" project.
Should rephrase my original comment to blanket protectionism. What works well is a "soft touch" where a local sector is supported just enough to remain competitive with foreign entities. That approach could equally be labeled "increasing competition", and is proven to work well.
You're downvoted a lot because you didn't substantiate your claim, but I assume many people, myself included, agree with the sentiment.

Up until now Lubuntu had a clear goal: Create a usable Ubuntu-compatible distribution that runs on old hardware.

Now the goals are so vague and subjective that they lead to nowhere. Sure, this won't matter in the short term, but sooner or later the project will get completely derailed because of different interpretations of this dumb statement.

They can still make a good lightweight OS that runs on 10 year old hardware. There's no reason to change the goal.

Sure, it's no longer a massive challenge, but it doesn't have to be. If the developers want to try new things they can fork it.

> very, very customizable

I don't know where you're getting that. I like LXDE well enough. The only laptop I have running Linux runs Lubuntu. I would not call it "very" customizable. I can't easily rearrange the menu (which I blame the retarded .desktop file standard for), I can't add my own menus (to my knowledge), I can't change the application menus to be mac-style top-of-screen menus like I could in KDE 3, etc.

Don't use this. (Lua)Torch is obsolete.

My favourite 2D framework right now is is LOVE (love2d.org) - I'm using that to build stuff with/for my kids and it's just a joy to use. I'll probably write up some parent/child friendly tutorials at some point. I also like Monkey-2 (http://monkeycoder.co.nz/), but I only really use that when I want to do basic 3D stuff, because Love does the 2D stuff so well...
Totally agree. I've been using Django since 0.96 and it's is so mature now. Earlier they introduced so many new features... but it's now a very mature framework that doesn't really need any new features.
In fairness, Google Maps did not invent these names itself. It merely collected by rôte and systematized, without any quality control or fact checking, names invented and published by other people.

This is a general problem with deriving stuff indiscriminately from information supplied by unidentified people.

Wikipedia has a whole bunch of similar inventions, made up by people writing them into Wikipedia initially. (http://jdebp.info./FGA/legacy-encoding-has-no-definition.htm... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:List_of_citogenesis_...) And there is a fair amount of stuff that survived in Wikipedia for a long time, based solely upon a mention by other, highly credulous, WWW sites.

Google Web famously gives greater credence to some common spelling errors.

To me that's a bit hard, one needs to balance things so as not to disproportionately harm individual inventors/creators.

It would be great IMO to link renewal to revenue, but too difficult in practice (and too many potential loopholes).

One problem with early, high cost, renewal fees is that companies know they can wait out an individual; you're not going to pay a £M renewal without already having done serious revenue.

It can take a long time to get a new technology, or a new book, or whatever, to market -- the IPR system needs to enable individual creators.

Hello, HN!

For a while now I've been a big fan of ZEIT and in particular, their deployment platform - Now.sh.

It has great CLI, Desktop and Web experiences, however aside from web version of the dashboard, there wasn't really anything for mobile. And since I'm very mobile (and I imagine a lot of other people are as well), I decided to fill this gap :)

The app is built with React Native (and some native Swift parts) and is fully open source: https://github.com/rdev/now-mobile

> In Australia you’re not even supposed to replace an existing power point outlet thingo unlicensed.

In fact you're not allowed to install any fixed wiring without an electrical license. It's ridiculous - technically you aren't even allowed to install Ethernet outlets in your own house because it counts as "fixed wiring". Other trades have just as bad a grip on legislature, you're technically not allowed to replace your own tap seals either.

> Of course, the hardware stores sell them, and we do. But there ya go.

Of course, in theory there's no difference between theory and practice... ;)
Ask HN: Why don't monitors accept USB-C along with DisplayPort, and HDMI?
USB-C is so amamzing, it can do power delivery (sometimes past 65W), accessories (traditional USB), ultra-fast external hard drives, multiple 4K displays (via display link), but monitors and normal video cards do not support USB-C outputs. So I am still suck bring around adapters for DisplayLink and HDMI everywhere. Why is this? Will this change?

I really miss GNUStep. Pretty much the only time I remember actually kinda enjoying my Linux Desktop experience was when I had some ancient (found in a dumpster) laptop I set up with debian and WindowMaker+GNUStep. Granted, I didn't use it for much, but those guys at least had a lot of the right ideas going that all the other Linux Desktop Environments continue to ignore and pretend no one cares about.

Imagining an alternative timeline where GNUStep became the dominant Linux Desktop makes me feel like I live in the darkest timeline.

> It's a different standard of measurement. American anti-trust is about preventing a monopoly from harming consumers via perverse incentives; European anti-trust is about preventing a competitor from driving other laborers out of the market (less emphasis placed on the end-result to the consumer).

Which is odd, as I would say the EU have a far more impressive record of protecting the consumer than the US has.
But after those hours you knew exactly what the problem was and exactly what the solution was. You were in a much better position and could make better judgement calls at that point. It's better to dive in and figure out a problem than to just randomly upgrade things.
