I use something in the middle of a mirrorless interchangeable lens and a smart phone camera. The Sony RX100. Because of the lack of too many manual controls, its a good point and shoot, and because of the large sensor size, the photos are better than current best-camera smartphones. Thats the next target for smart phones.

The bit that really annoys me is that a more stand-up form factor would probably be more usable for most people, since it allows using a phone as a mini-screen.
Ok, I get it. Investment banks pretty much make almost everybody on salary (with some obvious exceptions, e.g. interns, administrative assistants, etc.) a “vice president.” It means nothing and is more out of tradition than anything. Those “VPs” are likely FLSA exempt regardless of title, based solely on what they do and the amount of professional judgment they get to exercise.
It might be gross incompetence rather than fraud you’re saying.
I don't think that's the reason, you can buy a case that for the Airpods case that adds Qi charging. I would guess they were planning on releasing it at the same time as the Airpower mat.
I disagree. Outrage culture comes from social media. It became profitable (in attention points) to create and ride waves of outrage. I've yet to see a mob go for the 0.1% for having all of the money, it's always some shallow drama or an easy pc win.
Obama was born in Kenya /s
Kong 1.0 Announced
copied the manager on the initial proposal to your lead

That was going to be my original suggestion as well, and I think it might work (for some value of "work"). But honestly, if you're working with somebody / in a situation where you have to resort to this kind of stuff, it's probably better to just go work somewhere else.
I'm sure a lot of it is good old-fashioned title inflation, but at least in the financial world part of the reason for so many VPs is that its an easy title to give someone to make them a corporate officer, and thus eligible to sign on behalf of the company.
In this case it’s highly specific to the person doing the statement & the subject of the statement. And it’s not nearly as textbook as the comment implies. But the US has fairly consistent and specific case law on when speech is a crime precisely because freedom of expression was so central to the founding of the country.
Yes costing people millions of dollars through securities fraud is a crime.

I moved to a center (pedestrian zona) of a small town in central Europe, from a country's capital, same experience here.

In a capital, I didn't do a detour on my way home to get a good bread, as it would add 15 minutes to a way home. Here it's a pleasant walk behind a corner.
My understanding is the copyright proposals were at least partially thanks to incumbent big media in Germany, and their link tax reaction to Google news.
Fair point. As other comment pointed out, it would be interesting to see if there is data around this.

This has a pretty decent sample size. I hope they can narrow down which cleaners have this effect. Also my first thought when I saw that "eco-friendly" disinfectants didn't kill bacteria is that they just don't work.
How do you define "successful?"

If Elon is doing things that are illegal or otherwise just boneheaded now, how much leeway does he get? What would it take to make you decide he shouldn't be CEO?
Not sure why this appears to be down voted. It's pretty true. There are 1000s of cities/towns in the midwest that having a car/truck makes more sense.
Was it on HN? If it was, I missed it.
The paper gives a detailed algorithm to provide 3 palindrome that add up to the number. The algorithm has tons of cases, but it's actually pretty simple. They work through a couple in the video.

It's a cool result.
Not quite; from same link, "President Abraham Lincoln and the United States Congress introduced in 1861 the first personal income tax in the United States." It was declared unconstitutional in 1895 by the Supreme Court, prompting the constitutional amendment.
Isn't there a good chance they'd just mothball the whole company and keep on making regular gasoline-engine cars?
Point number two has been preoccupying my brain the last few months. Our system of electing presidents tend to hinge on several swing states, and in those states, a few key districts, and this means that our elections are vulnerable to foreign influence much more so than if, say, presidents were elected by popular vote.

Protecting elections may mean ending winner take all electoral college system.
Saudi Oil is a commodity, but many country’s don’t have oil. Every country has low skilled workers.

China hasn't net added much to its treasury holdings in 15 years (it hit around $1 trillion back in 2003, it's now at ~$1.2 trillion). In that time they've probably run a $4 trillion trade surplus. Clearly that isn't how it works at this point, they're intentionally avoiding buying more US paper.

In that time US debt has gone from $6.7t to $21t. Their share has gone from 15% or so, to 5.7%. They're no longer a funding source for new US debt, and are no longer a critical funding source of existing debt (although hey, it's nice to have them squatting on that trillion dollars and not liquidating it).
The app was essentially what Slack does today. It was built to compete with Campfire and Hipchat (the new kid on the block) and the mission of the product was to be the most extensible group chat application.

Within a month we had paying customers. We didn't know how to grow the user base as neither my co-founder nor myself knew how to do marketing. After a few months of just adding features we tried finding investors and eventually had to do consulting to pay our bills.

At that point we had an acquisition offer that was way lower than what could have been. Because we were consulting and the product was going nowhere we sold it. It was overall a great experience but the software ended up dying in the hands of the acquirer as they could not find a way to market it either.
technically it says you must be a 'natural born' us citizen. who the hell knows what that means. If we assume the framers were well-read and fans of shakespeare, this means that anyone born by caesarean section is disqualified from holding the highest office. They were wise enough to know that the dermal microbiome of c-section children is destabilizing creates individuals of temperament ill-suited for the role.

Well for both countries the export to each other is only a fraction of their economy...China is not what it is used to be.
Just the opposite. All indications are that they hadn’t even started on the Mac Pro when they made the announcement, their way forward before then was the iMac Pro. I doubt they had any game plan at the time.

I disagree. I don't like the Kardashians. I don't care if it is my civic duty to keep up with whatever the Kardashians are wearing today. Just because they are a part of the broader sphere of the world and I apparently need to be aware of and confront things I don't like, such as the Kardashian clan, I have so many better things to do with my attention, no matter how damaging and counter-productive it is for me to avoid Kardashian gossip. Of course I could replace Kardashian with a million other topics.
Understanding car production is less important then for EV then massive battery investment and knowlage, building a integrated brand, global charging infrastructure and so on.

Toyota might be better at building profitable cars, but Tesla is better at building profitable EVs.
It's all still up in the air, and the wording is vague. GDPR's wording is also vague, as EU laws are. When we read between the lines, GDPR's vagueness sounds promising (hard to over-reach, easy to understand intentions), and the Copyright Directive's vagueness sounds terrifying (easy to over-reach, hard to understand intentions).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Directive_on_Copyright_in_the_...

A big difference is in the boundaries. GDPR is bounded by your customer records. One customer, one collection of personal data. There's a hard upper limit: about 7 billion. Companies tend to scale with customers, so generally bigger companies will have bigger customer bases and bigger employee bases to handle protecting the records.

The Copyright Directive's bounds is user content. One customer, any number of potential infringements. A single person can run a company with 100 customers who upload 10,000 images each per year. Managing the customer base is pretty easy, managing the data storage is pretty easy, GDPR-protecting 100 people's data is pretty easy. But 1 million potential copyright infringements per year, each one of which could even be claimed by multiple rights holders. Your risk exposure grows with data, not with people. That one-man show probably can't handle tens of thousands of take-down requests, nor build an AI Machine Learning Cloud Native Copyright ID Blockchain System to automate it.
Oh, I guess my parents raised me weird, then. They discouraged putting any importance into that kind of thought, especially when I was just a kid. It was always like, "do what you love and money will follow" kinda thing.

My advice: don't pre-sell anything unless a) it's simply to get a public beta in the hands of customers that want/need to use it right away, and b) even then, have a practical and do-able timeline in place for finishing any documentation, etc. that needs to be done for the final, polished product. And, above all else, do not spend the money - just put it in an escrow account or something similar.

I've been involved as a consultant with a company that took deposit money from customers, used the money to fund development of the software, and didn't deliver. It's surprisingly easy to screw up, so don't put yourself in that position. It's extremely stressful for the principals in the company, as well as the engineers tasked with the herculean task of trying to create something lasting while under the gun.
"Natural born" citizen.

Which isn't 100% defined and legal scholars can and do argue the edge cases based on lots of things including very old British common law antecedents. The consensus seems to equal citizen from birth although some disagree.
CSS grid is the single most valuable addition to layout on the web in the past 20 years. Flexbox was a stop-gap for layout, but because adoption was so slow, it couldn't replace floating and other silliness before grid took hold. (thank you evergreen browsers)

But, grid is nearly useless in a very few circumstances, mainly when you don't know how many items are going to be in a particular space. Grid has a flexibility for dimension flow and positioning, but rigid in the number of columns, rows and areas. (I know about auto-fit/auto-fill, but it's really finicky with dimensions and unknown quantities compared to just using flexbox)

Next comes sub-grids... I hope it's built as well as grid is. Love the control and consistent output from grid. The conclusion of this article was just odd though.
Correct. Even if their large industrial integration of all sorts of parts in close proximity was easily replaceable(which is itself very difficult), for them to be easily replaceable, buyers would have to be more price indifferent, which doesn't seem to be happening.
You're getting downvoted for some reason. You're 100% correct.

In Indian cuisine it's used as an umami enhancer. Usually with turmeric in vegetable dishes - especially lentil curries like dal and sambar but also those based on potato and cauliflower.

Kashmiri cuisine famously uses it in Rogan Josh.
Talk with your manager. Explain him the problem, give him examples, tell him that it frustrates you that your work is not rewarded. Also that it's difficult to work in these conditions since you feel that you can't trust this guy.

If you don't have regular 1:1s with your manager, tell him you would like to speak about something that bothers you. He's your manager, it's his job. If your manager doesn't do anything or refuses to meet you, you should start looking for another job.
Based on the figures I could find, China imported $130 billion dollars worth of goods from America last year, of which $12.3 billion was soya beans. The most likely reason they imposed high tariffs on soya beans is precisely because they had so few actual options. (I know the media portrayed it as some kind of genius move at the time, but that's been looking increasingly dubious. It's not clear that they will be able to feed their livestock at reasonable prices.)

The first amendment guarantees freedom of speech, but it has always had limits applied. Fraud is not considered a valid exercise of free speech.

A similar yet more apt question might be, where did the idea that parliament can get away with such large internet regulations come from?
I'm definitely not giving you "dis-trusting of basically every skeezy dis-trusted CA" for Google.

All the heavy lifting continues to be done by m.d.s.policy, which is Mozilla's, not Google's if it's anybody's. I used to want to believe that the (behind closed doors) other root programmes also had their own effective mechanisms. A few years of working with m.d.s.policy and watching absolutely nothing else making any difference disabused me of this notion. It gets done in public or it doesn't get done at all, and m.d.s.policy is where it gets done in public.

Does Google have (mostly in the form of Ryan Sleevi who is a Google employee) a contribution to m.d.s.policy? Sure they do. But there are quietly also people from Microsoft and others paying attention, it's just that Ryan is much noisier, for good or bad.

If I was going to single out a _person_ for this work it would be the late Gervase Markham, who was a Mozilla employee. The big list of problems at StartCom is Gerv's list, for example. I think even the idea to go after auditors not just CAs was Gerv's idea.
Why on earth wouldn't someone looking for a job where 90% of the people are males advertise mainly to people that are also males? Also, I didn't know being advertised at was a civil liberty. I wish the ACLU would spend less time on inane things like this and more time on stuff that matters.
Ask HN: Good Domain Attorney
I'm looking for recommendations for a good US-based domain attorney to help negotiate the purchase of a dot-com domain that is currently owned by a third-party but not being used. Of course I can Google, but I'd like recommendations based on actual positive experience. Thanks!
One of the episodes on the Netflix documentary Dirty Money is about short sellers with regards to certain pharma stocks (the one click baiting with Skreli in the thumbnail but not in the story, otherwise it is a great watch). And one thing that struck about me about the short seller they interviewed was her analytical and systematic approach to it. What she was looking for was yet to be recognized flaws in a certain company that can only result in falling stocks in the long run. And than acting on them in concert with others.

A mean thing to do? Maybe. Or you could call it natural selection in some cases.

Going back to Tesla and Musk, I think his behaviour in the last couple of weeks, and all the information that surfaced since, probably just convinced every short seller out there that they are onto something.

EDIT: fixed some typos.
I'm starting to get conspiratorially minded about all of this. It began when I couldn't understand the seeming coordination of the attacks against the Uber CEO. I mean, he seemed like the same kind of garden variety psychopath I expect in the role of CEO - why were there so many hit pieces about him specifically? Now Musk is a new target and somehow everyone is cheering for him to fail.

Seems like if you get into competition with the auto industry or threaten the oil industry by attempting to change consumer behavior then you become a massive target. I actually feel like forces other than public opinion are at work here.
You also have to remember, Hackaday is a mixture of true amateurs and semi-pro "hobbyists". People in the latter category would probably be more interested in and capable of designing a fully custom SBC for whatever project they have in mind.
China sources most of the components for Apple Products from different countries.

Here is a list of countries that provide the parts.

https://www.quora.com/Where-is-the-iPhone-originally-made

As you can see it would be fairly easy to for Apple/Foxconn to source these parts and build their products in the USA. I think the big motivator for them is they would rather outsource manufacturing to Foxconn and wash their hands of having to deal with it.
Interesting, but the article doesn't give us much sense of how close the victim and perp were in the church hierarchy, My reading is that they probably did not have the same Mormon bishop, who would have felt some pressure to take action.

So, yes, the farther away in the social network, the weaker the social pressure. If the link is mere nominal membership in the same faith, that may be worse than no link at all. Most of Madoff's victims were Jews -- because they were inclined to give him the benefit of any doubts.

It would be a (possibly huge) blow to our future as a planet if he were banned from being an executive of a company for even just 2 years. I hope for humanity's sake that it doesn't come to that.
Again the main point of my post was the FUD about Oracle and opensource is not base on nothing. Oracle's past actions toward open source shows this. You're welcome to disagree with counter argument, I would like to learn and be wrong if I am wrong (or missing something).

But I failed to see how your personal opinion on fork on java and ecosystem have to do with my original post on Oracle's FUD and past action against open source.

If none of your cases you've bought in this argument/debate is toward this topic then I think you're pushing a narrative and being dogmatic toward Java. I have no beef against the language but I am wary of Oracle. I'm merely refuting/adding toward the comment of the post I'm replying to.
Don't forget, "an eye-for-an-eye leaves everybody blind". The Dale Carnegie approach to dispute resolution usually works better than the Yosemite Sam approach by my observation. I'm reluctant to bet on Sam. Hopefully this is a new and improved Sam.
Or better yet, "Build your projects and instantly publish them online", for ease of parsing.
I bet it's using mesh networking a la ZeroTier, I have a similar setup, working on my home desktop while being at my customer's offices. I get 15-40ms latency, 1920x1080 at 60fps and no noticeable input lag. Gaming works really well, but I only really use it to code.

I keep saying I'll write on how to set this up for cheap, but I didn't find the time yet.

Basic recipe: fiber, zerotier, one raspberry pi and a steam link

Edit: latency above referrs the display latency, the latency between the machines is between 2 and 10 ms
How I define successful. Well, how about go back 10 years and look at the size of Tesla and SpaceX. And then look at them now.

I dont think anybody can argue that he was not succcessful.
P2P and self hosted stuff is what I want out of the internet, not SaaS style platforms. People's cable modems are almost always on so it's reasonable for them to have some almost-always-on services behind them, but circumstances make it difficult to build viable P2P tech:

- It's tough to monetize since true p2p software can just get pirated. You can't gatekeep to make sure people pay.

- The shortage of IPv4 with the help of buggy insecure operating systems made closed-to-the-outside NAT standard, making peers inaccessible without manual configuration or some helper technology.

- Data hungry government and corporations see independent communication channels as an obstacle to their goals. (See the recent story about five eyes pushing for backdoored crypto in Australia.)

> Ask at the onset whether or not people would pay for the product you intend to develop. This is the Willingness-to-Pay talk,” Ramanujam argues. “Frontloading this question is powerful because customers won’t be in the mindset of negotiating price. Instead, they’ll give you objective feedback that you can use to prioritize what you’re building.

Nah. People aren't objective about their purchasing decisions like that. The only way to find about willingness to pay is through actual experimentation.
I mean, the former attitude is known to be totally ineffective. The latter is possibly effective, at the cost of being (possibly?) extremely damaging.
His trade war with China (and only China) is one of the few administration's positions I whole wholeheartedly support (as a economics dilettante, no expert).
I 100% agree with this. GDPR is a shining beacon of success and it blows my mind that it came from the same clowns that made the cookie law. They covered my internet with cookie banner graffiti and now they want to mess with something as fundamental as a hyperlink.
McCain is distinguishable from Cruz' case though. He was born on a Naval Air Base in a US territory (the Canal Zone) which is legally a lot closer to US soil than Canada is--and some of the old common law precedents specifically address cases like this.
I think the path to get us there (reshoring chips) would be extremely painful, but it certainly would be a better position for the United States to restore our ability to produce these critical components.

You're woefully confused about the meaning of "personal attack". Calling out unsubstantiated claims is anything but personal. Faith based arguments are irrelevant and unwelcome here. Stay factual with your accusations and you won't have this problem.
Not sure on the property tax situation in SV, but a common assumption is 1% of the houses's value annually. So with that considered, it is probably close to a wash with the S&P 500. And whatever upkeep as well, as you said.
Yeah, it still exists, I just paused development on it.
