Neither.

We were most likely discussing someone who is a member of Hacker News that she wanted to encourage me to marry, never mind that she believed he was married to someone else (according to him at the time, he wasn't married, but he is a family man). So, basically, admitting that I didn't find him repulsive was a good excuse to heap verbal abuse on me. Par for the course for the relationship. There was no means for me to do anything right.

Out of respect for innocent bystanders, such as his children (including one that likely reads Hacker News), I don't want to discuss this any further.

I upvoted you because you're correct - it's a failing of the system.

My original point still stands though - we used to use 'http://' and 'http://www.' as a signal that this was a web address. I cannot believe this will still stand in 5 years time. The default is now the domain name, not the phone number.
Your question doesn't make sense as stated, as you're conflating two different concepts (a statute vs. the law) and being overly broad in your reference to precedent.

Congress can't pass a statute, for example, that criminalizes oral and anal sex, and expect it to somehow overrule Lawrence v. Texas.

However, if the courts interpret a statute that Congress has passed in a way that Congress does not care for, Congress is free to alter the statute to be more clear.
Sadly, the requisites to enter in biomedicine research are overhelming.

We've had plans to write some blog posts about it, but there are ultimately only so many hours in the day. There is a very high level explainer at https://knowherenews.com/how but in broad strokes, our backend incorporates many discrete pieces which: monitor for breaking world events, structure metadata from news reports, search for corroboration, identify spin-relevant information, and ultimately, draft reports for a human editor to proof and possibly publish. We focus on American politics for now rather than a larger slice of world events.
So in huge quantities it rarely happens... soy is also completely optional and not necessary, so not a big concern. Avoiding animal products is laughably easy without soy.

The only place where citizens seem to have an impact is Switzerland where with enough signatures you can request a referendum. Good luck implementing that in other countries.

Somebody one day told me this little bit of wisdom:

In a dictatorship, the government wants you to shut the hell up but in a democracy they let you keep talking because they don't listen and do not give a single fuck about you.

The world's political systems are broken.

I for one do not bother to vote anymore and the cynicism transpires in my daily life where on many issues I find myself thinking that if nobody cares, why should I?

That's progress apparently.
War wasn't that unthinkable:

Show HN: I built a site that ranks coding bootcamps
Hey everyone,

Threw this MVP together as a side project.

It's still pretty light on data so if you attended a coding bootcamp, I'd really appreciate if you left a review, just 5 Y/N questions.

Otherwise, really just looking for feedback / to see if there's interest in something like this.

Also made a video if you want to learn more about this project:

Not in my experience. It took 7 months for the AAA to appoint an arbitrator. And, often the companies refuse to pay the upfront fees, which drags things out. See Uber.

I think that's a real problem with all to-do lists. I often have to break down my to-dos into smaller chunks just so I can have the satisfaction of checking them off. I used to write "write to-do list" on my to-do list.

Thanks for reading and thanks for the feedback. It wasn't my intention to 'dog' make, I just felt that for an entry level post that introducing the make syntax may detract from the focus on assembly (although make is an integral part of gas asm) and add extra complexity and length to the (already very long) article. Anything more complex, such as multiple .s files would definitely warrant a description of make. Thanks again.
Yes, I run a small synthesizer company on the side and do our own assembly, which has become 30% more expensive because the tarrifs cover things like capacitors, resistors, potentiometers, which are all components for our products.

We've always done our own assembly to ensure quality, and to reduce costs... But now because of these tarrifs we are considering shutting down or possibly off-shoring assembly.

The idea points back to whether or not it’s okay to roll your own encryption. Take the most complicated thing, and then apply the principles for that thing to all other things.

Secure encryption is hard, so use a library. Parsing a web request is hard, so use a library. Disk I/O is hard, so use a library. Graphics is hard, so use a library. Caching is hard, so use a library. Databases are hard, so use a library. Authentication is hard, so use a library. UI/UX is hard, so use a library. A11Y is hard, so use a library. And so on.
To be fair, it's generally accepted knowledge that drug dealers and producers probably shouldn't be consuming their own product.
Large systems want to centralize for the sake of efficiency. I was among the first wave of P2P hackers in the 2000s and we learned the hard way that decentralization leaves a LOT to be desired.

Yep. It's a typo. Thanks for the feedback.

Do you know the difference between a lie and a falsehood?

I think it does a lot of damage in the world, people labelling things as lies when they merely think they're not true. It's very inflammatory. "That's a lie!" says not only "That's not true" but "and you know it". Which often is itself not true. Thus you could be accused of lying yourself.

Very often people are lied to in the media[0], then adopt false beliefs, which they then repeat - but they're not lying when they do so, they believe these things.

It poisons communication when this word 'lies' is thrown around loosely. People disagree about a lot of things. It usually doesn't mean they're lying about it. Usually you have no idea whether people you don't know are lying or saying false things they believe. How could you know that with certainty.

It's not even possible for a sentence to be a lie, in the way you seem to believe. A sentence uttered by a person, yes, but detach it as you did from any speaker, and it can only be true or false. A lie requires specific knowledge in the mind of the particular person uttering the sentence.

[0]Whoops - see, I even did it myself. I don't know if that's right.

I think senior engineers are probably the hardest to hire for and also the most important, and they usually have families and a house so I suspect it's not as easy for them to relocate.

At least that's my impression given how many of my senior coworkers have absurd commutes as they continue to live in the same house they had before joining.
I recently switched from Fedora 26 to Windows 10. I've been using WSL for the past 3 days for webdev and so far its been pretty smooth.

Feels pretty similar to doing web with a Macbook Pro. No issues with local servers or anything.

One odd thing is that the Linux home directory is different from your Windows user directory. If you use the terminal from within VSCode this is a none issue since it starts in the project working directory anyway.

Honestly, the thing I miss most from Linux / OS X is the dropdown Quake style terminal. Wish Windows had better terminal emulators.
This wouldn't work for me - my to-do list only grows bigger, not smaller :-)

Anyway, I've had a lot of success with Cold Turkey for blocking distracting websites and applications. I even bought a license for the extra features since it is so good. So yeah, I recommend it. Not affiliated.
It's been done: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pendulum#1673:_Huygens'_Horolo...

>To make its period isochronous, Huygens mounted cycloidal-shaped metal 'chops' next to the pivots in his clocks, that constrained the suspension cord and forced the pendulum to follow a cycloid arc.[53] This solution didn't prove as practical as simply limiting the pendulum's swing to small angles of a few degrees.
Beaker Browser (mentioned as one of many possibilities in this article) is the real deal. If it doesn't get you fired up about the possibilities, then - well let me explain I guess:

* The interface is dead simple - share this folder, done.

* It is a read-write browser. Netscape (and other browsers) used to be this way - they had some limited HTML creation tools. Beaker brings this back in the form of making an "editable copy" of a website. It's a choice in the address bar.

* Making an "editable copy" doesn't have to mean you're now editing raw HTML. An editable copy can direct how it is edited through JS. (See the recently released "dead-lite" for an example of this.)

All these attempts are exciting but I'm actually starting to use Beaker because it's so useful even without adoption.
I’m a novice programmer but guessing Golang is concerned with keeping things as bytes; arguably _the_ distinguishing characteristic of C.

So it has a scanner like Java or C#, but you’d get laughed at iterating bytes not objects in Java.

I’d also note Golang’s API is built for enterprises so it’s familiar by design.

I’d enjoy to hear other perspectives.
Your coworkers are your best resource.

- Ask them to review your code and suggest changes

- Look for questions of taste and ask more. It may feel intuitive to them, but if you dig in you can often find a good reason/principle behind it.

- Read your coworkers' code

- Read the comments people leave on others' code
Also, prior to high school, kids are usually taking math and science classes at all times, so the absolute maximum would be one year without math and science.
That was an incredible run on sentence.

Ask HN: SaaS for simple video editing?
Hi all, can anyone recommend any sass products for simple video editing? My requirements are:

- cross fade between video clips
- playback select clips at higher speed (2x, 4x, 8x)
- pan/zoom still images
- simple text overlays
- export as 1080p avi with a common codec
- total video length of a few minutes

Does such a thing exist? Any suggestions?
Amen. The current interview discourages people from being upfront on their weaknesses (try saying I am a little bit rusty on AWS or any other popular topic and see what happens -- I purposely call out my weaknesses because I would rather "over-deliver" when I am hired.). The interview process often focuses on looking for reasons to reject rather than evaluating strengths vs. weaknesses.
I would encourage app developers to take a look at the network architecture of the major US carriers while determining how to give their app notifications from the server. In the US, the 4 major LTE cellular carriers operate IPv6 only networks with NATed IPv4 access tunneled in as an unsupported afterthought.

From my testing with IPv6 enabled VOIP for inbound calls, compared to FCM with calls coming from an IPv4 only server, only the former setup would reliably get calls to a test device on the first ring. If you need very low latency push notifications, IPv6 and FCM/Apple Push Notification are needed for best performance. Thus far, inter-carrier roaming generally does not support IPv6, so you still must support legacy IPv4 to a degree.
Oh cool, which company?

With phones doubling performance every 1-2 years, and desktops/laptops largely stagnating, it looks like in a few years, a server rack will fit into your smartphone.

There is also https://text.npr.org/ , which was discussed here about a year ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15342758

I thought there was a comment in there listing some other news sites that did this (besides CNN), but I skimmed and I can't find it now so I'm probably misremembering.
I will ask this more explicitly: how soon will you deprecate features in 1.0? 2 years? 5 years? 10 years? Go 1 is 6 years old and Go 2 seems at least a few years away, and the paragraph I was referring to says "Mixed programs, in which packages written in Go 2 import packages written in Go 1 and vice versa, must work effortlessly during a transition period of multiple years.", which suggests they will keep the Go 1 compatibility for "multiple years" after Go 2 kicks in. That adds up to 10 years. If Julia can promise to keep the vast majority of 1.0 features around for 10 years, I will be good with that.
Google to Apple: Don't cave. This moron will be out of office before the end of the year.
I agree on the segmentation. I actually have no work-related reason to keep everything separate, but purposely do so for the distraction-related reasons you mentioned. I do this by keeping each type of work and personal project in its own Chrome user profile. This creates a silo'ed workspace for me to keep things only related to that project, but still have a personal profile to keep all my interesting bookmarks that I like to waste my time on.
Deploying Stateful Elixir Apps into a Kubernetes Cluster (Talk+Demo+Source Code)
You can’t just shut down a semantic argument by taking a position, asserting its correctness, and refusing to acknowledge other views, as a premise of your broader argument.

The normal way out of a semantic argument is to just acknowledge the different definitions people are bringing and moving on with that in mind, but you’re not willing to do that. You are the one instigating the semantic argument here.
I've been a member of some minority almost all my life. On more than one occasion I've been a refugee, a tourist, an immigrant, a high scoring student, the new person.

My rules for success as a minority.

- If you are the minority, never forget this. Ever.

- Don't congregate in a manner that excludes the majority.

- Sure, be proud of who you are and where you come from, but remember that the majority are also proud
and they have far superior numbers. So, be sure to operate in a manner that does not offend their pride: include them in your celebrations and be there for them in their time of mourning.

- Be useful. Find ways to be useful.

- Set your goals to be the best example of not just the minority that you belong to but the majority as well.

I've found that whenever a minority breaks one of these rules, they do so at their own peril. They needn't break any laws to gain the scorn of the majority.

It’s an anti-spam, and anti-abuse measure. So they’re not giving away free resources that get used to harass their users.

Why would Google need you to give them your phone number to associate that with you? They’re on many of the phones in the world, someone you know has already done that for them, or you used your own phone to do the same.

As a general statement this seems plainly false. Just go to the Pulitzer site, to the last year's winners, skip to the "investigative journalism" category, and click around the finalists and back year over year.

Nerds discussing journalism on HN are obsessed with something called the Gell-Mann Amnesia Effect (it's really the Michael Crichton effect but whatever). It suggests that if you have an area of expertise --- computer science in our case, resurrecting dinosaurs in his --- you can fact-check the news media, and, upon spotting errors pertaining to your expertise, draw conclusions about the quality of the whole publication.

But of course, that's a silly thing to argue. However good journalists might or might not be at reporting on tech startups (and John Carreyrou seems to have done a pretty amazing job with that for WSJ), they're also the ones staffing bureau's overseas, cultivating sources in state and local governments, breaking the Harvey Weinstein story, and reporting on toxic fire retardants in crib mattresses.

Well, we are seeing this happen, though.

I am not sure if you have noticed, but over the last 10 years, software engineering as a career, has grown extremely quickly. Both in number of people joining the careers and also in salaries.

I really don't think 150K salaries for new grads, and 100K salaries for recent bootcampers was normal, 10 years ago. Even in San Francisco. And yet in SF, that isn't too uncommon these days.

The question is motivated by the observation that a set of REST webservices, and a set of React views that consume them, are so different that there isn't any code reuse. I'd ask you to note the parallel structure between them. They are two sides of the same data sync problem.

Yes, of course there are common bits that can be factored out. The problem is that most people have never so much as thought about it, because of the language barrier, and other barriers – for example teams are structured around this artificial divide of frontend and backend. You need a new architecture to take advantage of the parallel structure. GraphQL is just the beginning.
