Discussion
It is widely known that human-animal interaction is associated with positive health effects for humans, and for many years, its investigations had focused on this aspect (Fine, 2010). Nevertheless, dogs' unwanted behaviors could also have affect humans. This research focuses on owners’ perception about dog behavior when left alone and its association with their perceived stress and happiness.

We evaluated owners who believed that their dogs had separation-related problems and owners who perceived that their dogs were well behaved in their absence. After comparing the characteristics of both groups, as in McGreevy and Masters (2008) study, we did not detect a tendency related to breeds or an association related to their size. We found a significant difference between the groups according to the dog's time living with their actual owner: those owners who perceived that their dogs were well behaved when left alone had lived with their dogs longer.

Owners perceived that those dogs that did not present separation-related problems also had higher scores in trainability. This relationship may be explained by Tiira and Lohi (2015) findings that anxious dogs could be exercised less because these dogs may be less obedient or more prone to running away when walking.

Hyper- or over-attachment are typical descriptions in the literature regarding dogs with separation anxiety (Ogata, 2016). We found higher attachment scores within the group of owners who reported that their dogs had separation-related behavioral problems; however, attachment style should be considered (Parthasarathy and Crowell-Davis, 2006).

Results suggest that owners and dogs that share the same preferences in activities also share symptoms associated with stress. Dogs share many of the same environmental factors that contribute to anxiety in other species, such as humans (Tiira and Lohi, 2015).

Owners with higher levels of stress may not have a relaxed relationship with their dogs, which can contribute to their annoyance about their dogs' behavior, so they spend less time with them, increasing the anxiety in the dogs. In turn, a dog's behaviors may annoy the owner and may be a source of stress for him or her, which affects his or her perceived happiness.

Conclusion
The findings of this study suggest that if owners do something to improve behaviors that they consider annoying in their dogs, their perceived happiness and dog-owner relationship could improve. Owners who perceive themselves as stressed also perceive separation-related problems in their dogs.

Here's a quote from Dixon himself in the Golf Digest article:

> I started dating a girl whose brothers were drug dealers, and before long I was in it, too. It's no excuse. It was what you did in my neighborhood if you wanted to make money. I became a mid-level cocaine dealer and pulled in enough to drive flashy cars and cover friends, but not much else. I rode with a weapon, same as everybody.
The system seriously failed in this case. The actual killer confessed just days after the crime and repeatedly over the years. It wasn't even a mystery who did it.

And the prosecution withholding exonerating evidence to get a conviction should never happen, or if it does they should face some punishment. In many states, that is essentially murder.

That's why it's important for us who are working on decentralized projects to not use "decentralized" itself as a feature but rather use the side-effects of what decentralized technology brings.

The first ones that comes to mind is:

offline-first, local-second and internet-third. Basically, the applications you use day-to-day should work no matter how you are connected. If you are on a local lan, the application should work with the rest of the clients who are on the local lan. Slack would be amazing if when it looses internet connectivity, it simply tries to connect directly to other clients around it.

Performance. Decentralized applications can be much faster than centralized ones, for the majority of the people on the internet. If I'm in South Africa and using a web application with it's servers in US, there is a maximum speed the application can work at, no matter if I'm working with someone next to me, or in China. With decentralization, we can move logic closer to the people needing it.

Security. Less important for the average person but more and more people are caring about it. Apple seems to have a focus on it that actually makes security-conscious people chose them for it. Not having everything going through the same centralized service makes that centralized service less of a target, and decentralized technology usually does a way better job on using encrypted communication because it's needed when you send data peer-to-peer.

If instead of applications writing "It's decentralized!" on their landing pages like that's actually a feature, they explain the benefits of decentralization, I think it becomes a lot more interesting for the average person.

Is there any roadmap somewhere so we know what to expect in the future?
If even bloomber makes mistakes like this then who will not?

Github has absolutely nothing to do with this and while a layman might not get it- its something every single one of bloombergs intended clients should and would.
This system is similar to ones already operating in MMORPG. And I'm sure that system in China is being exploited already. Finally only exploiters will get all the benefits leaving regular people far behind.

Yeah, but that's not the point. This person sold a plant derivative to willing buyers; the state locked him in a cage for 27 years. Both are obviously illegal, but wildly different proportionally.

And yet the latter, when finally made to acknowledge their mistake, pulls this "up and coming drug dealer" thing out as their excuse?
Curly braces are not that unfriendly - people use parentheses in common text all the time, and curly braces are not that different. Perhaps the concept of a "block" or scope is a bit unfriendly but that's independent of syntax... and arguably, curly braces make that more explicit.

Meanwhile, with significant whitespace, non-developers have to learn to be aware that a syntactic element intended to mean nothing now suddenly means something, and that one type of whitespace means something different than another and that they can't be used together, which is counter-intuitive.

Is your idea is that only polls should be published or what exactly? They are as representative of their own opinions as any other person or activist or whoever quoted. Whether they are dumb is irrelevant. Plenty of senators are dumb too. Just because you don't like somebody does not mean he or she does not exist and that his or her opinions don't influence their votes, buying habits or otherwise have impact on world around them.

Huge chunk of "old media" is garbage too, just with little bit better grammar. One thing that curation of old media was bubble too. It made people convinced that "nobody think that" while quite a lot of people actually think that. I don't mean outright censorship here, but the range of arguments and opinions being expressed was much smaller.

To some extend, I understand how ideologies can be dangerous and how their promotion in media threatens us. But you don't seem to object on the "this person is promoting ideology that leads to less freedom" grounds. You seem to object on the "these people should not matter" grounds.

Lastly, it US cared more about what Afghan kids like, US would be less cool about killing them and about destabilizing whole regions of world.

Alas, one of our key principles is to not hide or rename anything in Git, so your knowledge from using Git on the command line transfers to and from Sublime Merge.

Yeah, the title is awful - I was happier with the article then I thought I'd be, as it did go in to some of the negative points. To point to any atomic automatic judgment of ones citizens based on their beliefs as a good thing is a bit of a weird view, however. The examples they give are all terrifying.

It's also not great that the lady they report as pro social credit is only revealed later on in the piece as being married to a high ranking party member. She's introduced as "a marketing professional" when I'd argue the most relevant facts towards her support/non-support of such a system would be that she is married to "a civil servant in the justice department, a loyal cadre to the party."

The article makes several strange emotional appeals regarding her, actually. For instance, I'm glad she "married for love", but I don't see why it would be relevant to the issue at hand unless it was an attempt to further humanize her and, by extension, this new Permanent Spotlight system.

This would be great.

The advantages of a single blade over the equivalent 4 smaller blades is efficiency. A tiny part of that is losses from extra motors but mainly its from blade length which dramatically affects power efficiency, up until the point where the tips go over the speed of sound, helicopters heavily optimise for this.

The duct itself offers some advantage but it's used here to vector thrust for control rather than just go up and down.

Battery power is quite constraining already for aircraft, ducted fan offers some benefit. The US military use a petrol powered ducted fan drone operationally, though i believe that's dual rotor, this is single rotor that offsets counter rotation with vectoring.
It can work if X forwarding is enabled on both hops. However, X11 forwarding may be disabled in the sshd_config on the remote system.

It doesn't require a physical display. If it's working then it should set the $DISPLAY environment variable inside the ssh session.
Fine Tuning Is Just Fine
Not sure if this is the kind of story you're looking for but here goes...

I immigrated for a change of life. I moved from Canada to Europe, and as a developer was able to find a job before I even landed here.

My gf and I decided to travel for a couple weeks before we officially landed in the new city, and went all over Levant, and as we were staying in a place on our trip, I had calls already with recruiters that found me via LinkedIn. I had set myself to residing in the new city before I left.

When we did finish our trip I had an interview lined up and I ended up hired. Canada luckily has a work holiday visa with this country so it was easy for me to get one of those and not be forced to work only for one sponsor company for my visa.

It has been really great and refreshing doing this and a fun change of pace.

Recently, we decided to start to become digital nomads and have no permanent home, at least for a while. We spent the last year getting side gigs with clients and trying to get involved more in the world of freelancing and remote working so that we could travel anywhere in the world and work. So I suppose our immigration story is not over yet.

Again, maybe not the kind of story you're looking for but I thought I'd share.

> Every step she takes, every one of her actions big or small — even what she thinks — can be tracked and judged. [emphasis added]

Can anybody shed upon how these Social Credit systems would be able to track what a person thinks?
I think the main issue with this case is that the prosecution/court excluded evidence and didn't present the case correctly, even though someone else was _publicly_ admitting guilt in the case and there was plenty of evidence pointing the other way. The jury system could provide relief from this sort of court bias-- _if_ they had the information. So it appears that it is the _system_ that is so frenetic to convict that causes the issue; not the jury [prosecution attorneys tend to think everyone is guilty]. I would agree there is a cultural issue with wanting to convict a lot and firmly believing that everyone convicted by the system must be guilty, but that has very little to do with the jury system.

The point of the jury system is to prevent tyranny, especially that experienced in most European countries that had monarchies and oppressive parliaments where angering the government or monarch, being the wrong religion, or having a different ideology would get you convicted very quickly. At least with a jury of your peers you have a chance of getting let off from trumped up charges. Europe _might_ not have the same problems currently, but still nice to have a system that could prevent some egregious things... perhaps including this one.

Ask HN: “Who is hiring” from freelancer/agency side. Is there a demand?
Every month there is a tread on HN "Who is hiring?" where companies post open vacancies.

I was a freelancer in a past and now I am running an agency (which I know is not very popular among HN community), so I see this market from the other side: I know there are
people like me looking for jobs and projects, and who are willing to post their portfolio.

So what do you think, is there a demand for a thread where one could post about skillset, experiences and competences of themselves or their agency? If so, what would be the best name?

Thanks

8. Darf ich die Karte teurer als zum Normalpreis verkaufen?

Ja, der Weiterverkauf von Karten zu einem erhöhten Preis ist nicht verboten. Eine Grenze stellt diesbezüglich lediglich der sogenannte Wucher nach § 138 Abs. 2 BGB dar, bei welchem sich jemand unter Ausnutzung einer Zwangslage eine Gegenleistung sichern lässt, die in einem auffälligen Missverhältnis zur eigenen Leistung steht.

Nun könnte man annehmen, dass bei einem Weiterverkauf einer Eintrittskarte ein zehnfach überhöhter Preis nach gesundem Menschenverstand in einem auffälligen Missverhältnis zum tatsächlichen Fussballspiel oder zum tatsächlichen Konzert von Helene Fischer, den Rolling Stones oder anderen Künstlern steht und damit unzulässig ist. Dies ist aber gerade nicht der Fall, weil keine Zwangslage vorliegt, die ausgenutzt werden könnte (vgl. OLG Köln, OLGE 93, 193, 194f., wonach der um das Zehnfache erhöhte Preis für eine Eintrittskarte für ein Fussball-WM-Endspiel mangels Ausnutzung einer Zwangslage keinen unzulässigen Wucher darstellte).

Im Ergebnis kann jeder frei entscheiden, wieviel ihm der Zutritt zu einer bestimmten Veranstaltung wert ist.

but if you can cite something else I'd be interested.
Thanks, I think I'd seen this one in the past but had ruled it out due to no Windows support (at the time).

Wasn't there this announcement recently that the Five Eyes was "asking" vendors to provide backdoors voluntarily, or else?

And all the governments engaging in this kind of behavior are at the same time giving each other excuses, "because every one else is doing it, too". So if China does this, you can be sure other countries will point to China's example and require their own backdoors. Let's just hope all those backdoors are mutually incompatible.

The model you described must be regulated by government. Examples: health insurance (by state) and mandatory car inssurance (by every player on the market) in EU. Each inssurance company must insure every car for a fair price - fairness is regulated by the state.

The jury shouldn't be deciding legal questions - that's for the judge. A jury is supposed to come to their verdict on a consideration of "matters of fact" (a term of art in the law).

For example, the definition of a particular offense (Grievous Bodily Harm, say) is a matter of law, and not up for debate by the jury. The jury's role is to decide whether or not the accused committed that particular crime; eg, does the evidence support ("beyond reasonable doubt") the conclusion that they throw the punch that the prosecution allege caused the injury to the accuser?
My personal opinion is yes, there is. I would like to post expertise and case studies of my company and be contacted, instead of contact companies myself.
That's a good point. A stock standard autonomous vehicle ought not be able to. One wonders at how much modification would be necessary to override or bypass any software / hardware lockouts.
