I have a few reasons:

1) It's what I'm used to. I don't remember a time since I got my first computer that I didn't have some hobby project on the side. If I didn't have a side project I don't know what I'd do with myself...I mean I have other hobbies, too, but my side project _is_ my main hobby.

2) To learn. I'm self-taught and the aforementioned always-having-a-side-project point is how I learned and keep learning. I've gotten (I believe) very good at retaining information I gain through tinkering and working on my projects, and I've become proficient at picking challenges that are the perfect difficulty for me to absorb more new knowledge in areas that are relevant both to my personal interests and (sometimes indirectly) my job. Sometimes if I am not understanding a certain concept or I read something I want to grasp better, making a small project out of it or incorporating it into an existing project and trying to actually implement something helps me digest and internalise the concept.

3) It's fun. I originally started learning to code in order to be able to bring the ideas in my head to life. Those ideas haven't slowed down, so neither has my desire to bring them to life through my side projects. It is fun to work on them and I feel a sense of accomplishment in being able to turn what's in my mind into something real.

4) It helps me de-stress. My day job can be stressful and demanding, with long hours around deliveries and cert deadlines. Even though my side projects and my day job both involve programming, working on my own thing helps me de-stress after a hard day of work. Having my own project on the side helps me avoid feeling like my entire life revolves around my job. I have something fulfilling that is just entirely mine.

This could be a longer list as there are other reasons, but I think the four I outlined above are the main reason I choose to work on side projects. Habit, learning, fun, and stress management.

Can you elaborate? Why might a oil crunch be coming?
Ah, but who defines what is a "mistake" and what isn't?
It’s currently an expert feature that’s off by default. There is documentation in the wiki and a blog post on the nightly news blog for those that are interested in turning it on. It’s quite the opposite of opt-out. It’s opt-in for the technical inclined. What would your expected level of communication be?
electric would be the way it goes and you could argue that flying drones flying at a constant speed could be more economical than a self-driving car limited by the current road infrastructure.
They don’t. It’s the default if you choose to enable the feature, but there are other compatible DNS providers, pick any that suits you (or just don’t enable the feature and keep doing what you’re doing now)
What you call popsci nonsense is the way most of the people on this planet live. Making decisions based on the available data and living with the fact that we may be wrong. Nerds are a special class, and not better nor worse.

I managed 85km/h on a somewhat twisty but steep downhill road of a mountain/hill in NSW, Aus on my road bike.

That was nuts and whilst exhilarating I'm not doing it again.

These cats are going faster than that and manoeuvering under their own power. Simply amazing.
It's not refuting a claim so much as narrowing it. I think we could afford to do a lot more of this, especially in sciences where we've made questionable amounts of progress.
Note that Bazel is a build system (https://bazel.build). I believe you are confusing it with Stubby. That's not to say that the general thrust of what you're saying is necessarily wrong though.
funny, here in Germany many offices and most homes don't have AC. Granted it's usually not that hot during the summer, but right now it has been around 85 since April and a lot of people are suffering at work, but nobody would quit because of that.

How improve communication between AU, UK and US teams?
I’ve been promoted to manage 7 engineers in Australia. They are electronics, FPGA and software engineers that are assigned to 5 different projects, working with engineers in the UK and US. In the past we haven’t done a good job of communicating across company sites and projects were typically contained to a single office location.

I’ve been asked to improve things with weekly project conference calls with useful minutes distribution and to request weekly status update emails from each engineer. Any tips or recommendations on training for me or my engineers?
>Professional risk takers in the financial markets are more tolerant of losses, probably because they do not respond emotionally to every fluctuation.

Or more plausibly, because they're richer, and the utility they stand to lose is smaller.
Over-generalization is common beyond the social sciences as well. It is often found in the basis given for false dichotomies, which are not uncommon in discussions of how to write software. It is also apparent in many of the claims made by clickbait titles.
The original post is yet another example of taking to personal blogs to get proper customer support for critical services.

I find this concept terrible. The eventual, theoretical end-point is that only the elite, social-media connected individuals will get help with their Gmail issues. I'm not worried about me, I'm worried about 70 year-olds who don't run blogs and don't have 40k insta followers.

So yes, crowdsourcing such a thing, in a simple, clear way, would be an absolute blessing. Think Github issues but then 1000x more accessible for average consumers.
I started paging through encyclopedias 25 years ago, and got hold of recordings that sounded interesting. I started to pick out more and more in the music as my brain got attuned. The love affair is still going strong. I highly recommend these:

- The Illustrated Encyclopedia of Jazz - Case, Britt & Murray

- Penguin Encyclopedia of Popular Music - Donald Clarke (Editor)

Donald Clarke in particular has an infectious enthusiasm. The first Jazz album that really grabbed me was one of his recommendations: "Blue and Sentimental" by Ike Quebec.
I use TextExpander (I wish there was something comparable on Linux!) and I have aliases defined:

,gcm for git commit -m ""

,ga for git add -p

,gl for git lg

and similar.

That said, I rarely use the terminal for git these days, Magit is just so much better.
Bare bones terminal design is great for power users just like vi is great for power users. The saying is as you get more competent in linux, the more you stay in the shell/terminal with the keyboard and the less you use the mouse. But for ordinary folks ( especially beginners ), they are drawn towards animations, mouse clicking, visual, etc. And most beginners don't advance to the power users stage. My guess is that this pattern will hold in the future.
I have configured my network settings to use a particular set of DNS servers. The issue is Firefox going out of the way to use something else.
So, in retrospect that's obvious, but it's also not stated. I just assumed half the time he opened a prize door (I had watched the TV show a few times and... they did weird shit).

Ask HN: What are some niche communities you enjoy?
There are many countries where ISPs are obliged by law to spy on users, and retain logs for many years. DNS manipulation also used as a cheap censorship mechanism. So Cloudflare easily can be a better option for hundreds of millions if not billions of people. As a rule, local actors present way more serious threat compared to US agencies for majority of the planet's population. That said, Mozilla, of course, must be very transparent with such big changes, and explain them to users not using just "more secure" wording.

This reminds me the office environment in Germany. The landlords and office management will go over the top with the most sophisticated and absurd fans, installations, and running water cooled radiators, but will never, never, install the bloody AC. Probably because the AC industry (whatever that would mean) is not big there, while all the other industries are. Have a merry >37 C this week:)
Have you paid attention to either of the past US market busts, in 2000-2001 and 2008? People overwhelmingly ride it into the ground because of two things:

- The fear of realizing a loss
- The unrealistic expectation of upside

Also, you'd be hard pressed to find a stock IRL that you could predict in advance as "50/50" and see what participants do, wouldn't you?

Keep in mind that this is currently all pretty much experimental.
Most type of research require all sorts of supporting activities, some of which can be facilitated by software or websites.

For instance, modern scientific research requires a lot of data processing, and as discussed here a few weeks ago that’s currently mostly done very incompetently by non-programmers.

For another, they need to recruit and manage study participants. There’s room for software and websites in that process.

Undoubtedly there are several more that are just not coming to mind right now.
Also, the title doesn't claim the evidence refutes it, just that it doesn't support it. Recalls the Carl Sagan quote, "Absence of evidence isn't evidence of absence."
Yep, similar to my experience. I came to the conclusion that doing so on a road bike with all but a flimsy helmet for protection is nuts.

I've been on a Superbike on Phillip Island Circuit cornering at maybe ~200km/h, which was even more mind bending but also felt marginally safer due to proper leathers and full face helmet, and removal of random traffic factors + using machinery designed for that purpose.
This article is getting flamed pretty good. Here's another perspective I've learned as a software developer. Building on incorrect abstractions is much more damaging than redundancy in your code. It obscures the underlying design that you're trying to unearth and model, leading others down a path with a weak foundation. I think we're well served to narrow the scope of any scientific finding beyond what might seem reasonable. The human mind is a pattern identification machine, and it finds false positives in science as often as it does in religion.
Since you mention Bill Evans and guitar, I must recommend Antoine Boyer's video recording of "We will meet again": https://youtu.be/iSkZVfFZmmA
Freeing the Web from the Browser
That's not the lession. We do pay Google enough to make billions of profits every quarter by granting them access to our data.

Google's terms of service give us no guarantees at all, but neither do other consumer or small business oriented cloud services that charge real money.

I seem to be one of the few people who actually read the terms of service before starting to seriously depend on a provider.

Usually, you don't have any rights at all. Most services can kick out paying customers without notice, without explanation and without recourse.

If you want real contractual guarantees (SLAs with penalties) you need to go all the way to enterprise services and they are extremely expensive.

In my view, the pragmatic lession if you're not an enterprise customer is to choose profitable mid-size providers that are not too cheap and combine a few of them or combine with on-premises infrastructure (that is your PC :) to avoid any single point of failure.

"but how many will still build web applications for helping perform tax audits for lawyers?"

Maybe we're better off without that software. Or maybe its useful enough that a group of IRS agents and lawyers would still be willing to pay somebody to build it, even though they don't get new "IP" out of it.
It may surprise you, but not everyone believes the military is evil, and thus working with them is evil.

Your comment prompted me to find out about the Macchiarini scandal, which I had not previously been aware of. That's some seriously scary shit that went down there! When your experimental technique fails - again and again - and multiple people die - one after another - and you still go on doing it... that's just sick. Or dedication, I presume.
I'm on Chrome 68, how do I prevent bbc.com from playing videos automatically?

If you're lucky it will still run with USB power attached. Depending on where/how you want to set it up that should be an option.

I did the same with mine. When I found it again it was dead, but I left it laying on my desk with the USB cord attached (accidentally). When I dug it up again a couple days later it was up and running. It will shut down almost immediately when I unplug it.

It's displaying a rotation of various webcomics now.
Hard to measure but I believe I think more about how things might fail than other family members.
The default applies currently if you enable an experimental feature. They hammered out a tight privacy agreement for one service and use that as default while this is stabilized. You can pick any other resolver if you prefer. Seems a legit way of handling this.

> And the article's argument that, if you have to choose somebody to share this data with, it might as well be the people you already share it with, seems pretty valid to me.

The whole point of HTTPS and DNS-over-HTTPS is to not share any data at all with your provider. It’s not entirely working right now due to SNI being plaintext, but work is being done on that, too. So that’s really not a good argument.

> Moving traders and other front-office staff away from BBG terminals is next to impossible due to the drop in efficiency and familiarity.

This is what happens when a technology becomes so entrenched. People get so used to it that it becomes nearly impossible to switch. It's why I laughed when people talked about google docs replacing MS Office. They just underestimate how entrenched Excel is in finance and corporate america overall (especially with the bosses). Hell, even MS Access is entrenched enough that it'll be around for decades longer even though MS is desperate to get their customers to switch to SQL Server.
Happy friendships day
Why would Google's own Mozilla do this... unless Google is planning to buy Cloudflare.
The article provides no source for this assertion and this Mozilla blog post is pretty clear that DNS-over-HTTPS is off by default and defaults to CF if you enable it or are part of the shield study (which requires nightly and opt-in to shield studies in the first place) https://blog.nightly.mozilla.org/2018/06/01/improving-dns-pr...
The Present and Future of Judgement Aggregation Theory
I don’t want to sound too grumpy and all; but it’s probably a fifth n-body project in wasm I see here on Hacker News. On the other hand the big elephant in the room is the UI on the web.

Why is noone doing it? I’ve only seen a single half-baked UI toolkit for wasm+canvas (or however you call the combination of 3d and wasm).

I understand there are ways to build interfaces on the web, but it seems a good UI toolkit is something a lot of startups would find incredibly exciting in the long run.
By wouldn’t you expect Bahnhof to offer a DoH-capable resolver for its customers then, that you could use in FF if you choose to enable the feature once it’s out of the experimental phase?
Great, thanks. Will check it out.

> Is 150 miles a big deal because of the time period or because it's the UK? For some reason they seem to make a big deal about distances that are a day trip in the US.

Can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not... but Stonehenge was built before there were cars or widespread domesticated horses in Britain. 150 miles is not a day-trip on foot.
Their argument reminds me of climate change “skeptics” arguments that there is some sort of institutional bias towards papers that support climate change as a theory, which therefore is why all the papers and all the evidence support the climate change theory.

Yes. And while some can type in code in order to learn programming, to others everything looks like those DATA statements. Why can't we respect different learning styles? Plenty of people have learned via copy-paste or by "find the bug," in already transcribed code, etc.

>DNS over HTTPS is a great idea

Why is it better than DNS over TLS? All I can see here is increased overhead.
It would make a lot of sense. The fact that currently there isn't a single unique identifier per online user allows for an unregulated environment. Obviously, there are things like IPs, the mobile device identifies (phone number...) or even single-sign-on platforms but the bottom line is that there isn't something that is unique per user and platform independent. Should there be a unique credential per user just to access anything online? From the security perspective, you would definitely say yes but you could also imagine that this could be taken too far

Loss aversion, as it stands today, can be falsified in certain situations so its obviously not writ in stone. What is required is even more study of the context where it still holds.

This is true in most settings, from office jobs to the service industry.

Always good to remind yourself that usually professional respect comes from your salary, not the other way around.
Yup. Kubernetes is a clear platform play to commoditize AWS, their biggest competitor in the cloud platform space. The strategy wouldn't have worked without open sourcing it, because it relied on people building k8s clusters in AWS, even if AWS didnt support it directly.

Leaving out the major business rationale for k8s makes the article seem childish.
> they just would have been on foot?

What era do you think we're talking about? This is about five-thousand years ago. It's the Neolithic Age. There were no cars and probably very few domesticated horses. Yeah... they would have been on foot.
Agreed! This was also explained nicely in https://stratechery.com/2016/how-google-cloud-platform-is-ch...
If this is true, then I'm okay with the feature being available if it is opt-in. Although I generally think this is a concern better left outside of the particular browser I'm using. If I want to route DNS queries through a third party then I'd like to do that for all my network traffic, not just my browser.
and the internet becomes sufficiently centralised that you only access a few IP addresses behind which most services are hosted. In other words, we can either

a) trust our ISP with DNS queries and IP addresses which fairly uniquely identify services or

b) trust Cloudflare with DNS queries and our ISP with IP addresses which fairly uniquely identify services or

c) move everything "behind Cloudflare" and solely trust Cloudflare

Given that I can cancel my ISP’s contract, I can hold them accountable if they spew my data into the internet and I have no idea who Cloudflare is or what their aims are, I’d much prefer a) over c). b) is just worse than a) or c).
> DNS over HTTPS is a great idea

Putting everything, even lower-than-http level things on top of HTTP is a horrible idea, introducing yet another layer of abstraction.
BBC has this on the situation:
