Give Ghost a try (https://ghost.org/). They have, I believe, potential to eventually add static site generation. There's an open issue about it, I really hope it happens.

I agree with you that sitegen from git is just too cumbersome when the articles aren't very bare/simple. Also when there are multiple users contributing, especially non-technical users.
A lot of the laws differentiate between foods that are dangerous when left out (eg meat) and those that aren’t (pizza supplies). I think it’s called cottage food laws?
How do they measure non-bias? i.e when is it working as intended?

My only worry is that they are aiming for 50/50 which doesn't reflect the underlying gender ratio of the developer pool.
You're directly or implicitly assuming that:

a) Java is a bad technology and it's not moving forward ("once companies move to a better technology")

b) new Java developers aren't being trained, including very young and bright ones, straight out of universities, and they don't enjoy Java

Both claims are false.
Probably worth noting that what is easy to grow for one user might not be for another - we all live in different parts of the world. At first glance, Peace Lilies wouldn't do well in my cold, dark and rainy part of UK.
Come and work in the film industry, where you will also discover it is still mostly plumbing, moving data from one place to another.

Does "ballistic descent mode" mean that the braking thrusters were inoperable, or just that the launch escape system was not in use?
Actually, check again! I just updated it to NOT use wabt. Walt-compiler has its own semantic printer, so its output is more readable.

And yes! I think answering these kind of simple questions is important, so thanks for asking them.
I guess one could write a book about anything, but wouldn't this message read better on a flyer or short article?

Is deleting a social media account such a brave move that people have to really ponder it, read a book, maybe talk with close family and friends before making a decision?

The 1st Facebook account removal I saw was something sudden: this girl had a really bad experience and the next day all her stuff was gone.
Even better.

I'm already having fun with it.

Sorry for harsh language, but this is not a bug. This is a complete brain damage of those who decide to implement such behaviour.

That's not "harsh", harsh is what happened to the unlucky users who lost data because no one on the development team bothered to call it out. It should be an implicitly understood rule that you NEVER remove a file you did not create, unless the user explicitly asked to, but I guess MS considers it acceptable to do anything to a user's system after they convinced everyone to take forced updates as being acceptable too.
If I consumed that much per day on average I’d have major bandwidth overage charges at the end of the month. (In Canada, at least, where caps are often ~200-300GB)
You may be right, for instance Machiavelli didn't exist until the Renaissance.
> In every single case where you might want a repeated oneof, you always want to wrap it in a message (product type), and then repeat that. That's exactly what you can do with the existing design.

But I could use the same argument for repeated anything. Why even allow repeated primitives at all, if your argument is convincing?

Windows 7 is the best OS M$ ever made. If it had DirectX 12 (and subsequent updates like raytracing support) i don't think I would ever update.

Thinks work, OS doesn't get in my way anyhow, its fast and takes relatively little RAM (well not compared to XP but these days its OK).

Never tried Win10 because everything seemed worse, but I had hope they would polish things over the years. When I read comments here, it doesn't seem so. Sad story...
It means that the angle of descent of the capsule was much greater, so they encountered thicker atmosphere quicker than ideal, causing greater decelleration forces on the capsule than they would normally experience.
Was jettisoning the escape tower at that moment planned, or was that a failure?
from the outside, it had really high pass rates, too.
[...] Many (including me) dropped the course,

The survey in the article actually divides students into four groups for this reason. They count those dropping the course; those not attending the exam; those attending the exam and failing; and those attending the exam and passing.
> Typically the difference between them is that Google shows what I seek as the first result, while DDG shows it on the first page of results - that's pretty darn close if you ask me.

Pretty darn close according to you, but the reality is that for most people that difference is huge. The UX where you can just can trust the first link and don't have to scroll to consider each option is miles better.
Thanks for doing the bare minimum.

I'm growing Genovese basil on my windowsill. I water it irregularly, yet it grows quite well. I'm hoping to do a nice pesto from it, but the smell alone is very nice.
Word. I had one and always forgot to get people to water it when I went away from the office - it would be limp, sagged flat, conformed to the pot and table top. Water it and it bounces back within the day.

In retrospect it's probably some sort of "do people in your office care" test, does anyone water your plants when you're away.

> Yeah, actually, one thing that’s really interesting is that Facebook is not a normal company, in the sense that its valuation when it went public wasn’t based on how much money it made, which is what would normally happen with a business. It actually somehow talked the SEC into creating this other category, where it would be valued based simply on how much it was used, just on user engagement. And I think that was one of the most dreadful decisions in the history of financial governance, because, unfortunately, it set the pattern for other companies that went public later, like Twitter. So it’s almost like a government mandate that, instead of actually making money and serving customers, a company will become an addiction and behavior modification empire.

I didn't know this, can someone give more information on exactly how/why this happened?
Isn’t that Soyuz the one with the patched hole?
In https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principia_Mathematica the conclusion that 1+1=2 appears only at page 379. It was a hard proof ;-)
Agreed. So many things breaking are to do with the binary dgpu drivers, that issue goes away with intel.

I've been running ubuntuMATE for years on my t450s. It is remarkably boring. The only things that don't work for me is the fingerprint reader and docking/undocking can be funny if done hot.
Article 7 does not violate what i said this is a single purpose clause.

Meaning i can't force you to sign up to my mailing list or refuse to sell you items on my store, the current interpretation of most DPA is that it doesn't apply to single purpose processing.

Also again as stated below people confuse the "I agree" button to a GDPR consent, the fact that there is ok/opt-out UI for GDPR does not mean that they are seeking consent as their lawful bases but they still need to inform the user and allow them to opt-out (even if opt-out means that they opt-out of the service).

Only about half the GDPR popups I've seen were actually worded solely for seeking consent even tho they had the agree/opt-out buttons below the text itself stated the legitimate interests of both them and their partners in why they need the data for most things with maybe a handful of purposes relying on consent alone.

At 1080p60 it's probably doable (heck, I wouldn't be surprised if I've beaten 34GB when sick), but it's still a rather absurd figure. Are they counting each site visited, including javascript and CSS, without caching, and every video loaded on Facebook, even if unwatched? I doubt even such a measurement would approach 34GB on average.
Planned (nominal). See here:

it's a single comment account created to manufacture outrage there is no reason to think they are even here anymore nor that they would care to actually read my post.
The parent post argument wasn't about the quality of Soyuz-FG design, we know that this has been tested, tweaked, verified and is very reliable.

The quality control of the current manufacturing team, on the other hand, seems not the same as it was for the earlier Soyuz vehicles.
They're supply chain jokes.

1. This is an exaggeration but the idea is that they have nothing to do because no one is buying or using them anymore (since the Intel vulnerabilities were uncovered).

2. A platform is a kind of software. A shelf is a kind of platform (different definition). Before items such as Intel CPUs are sold, they sit in warehouses for a while. Intel is not good for running any software platform so the best platform for them is a shelf... Also alludes to the fact that no one is buying them and that no one should buy them. (Also exaggerations).
If you value intact ecosystems and diversity you should definitely pay for them. You can't just tell poor countries not to exploit the resources that they have and hope they comply. Especially when your country's wealth is build on clear cutting, strip mining, and pollution. Even if you think that the past has nothing to do with you, the simple argument that you have money and like Orangutans and they have nothing but a forest should be enough.
Thanks for describing this. I wanted to see this debate myself. For others who might want to watch it, it's available on YouTube:

Let's stop with the NIH blaming, Canonical could not change GNOME direction, so they had no choice, if you remember Canonical wanted to add some fancy scrollbars in GTK but it was rejected, later when GNOME wanted same fancy scrollbars GTK accepted them.

I am a KDE user and I watched this from the side sao I am not invested in any camp, what we see is that when a meinteiner with big ego controls a project (it happened with KDE Plasma too) you can't bring any improvement that the meinteiner does not agree with.

As a point of interest, there are audio- and cinephiles who prefer 10bit color depth, 5.1 FLAC audio. I'm not one of them, but I stumble across their files sometimes, and I have seen stuff like Blade Runner (~2h run time) to the tune of 20-30GB (IIRC).
What i'm getting here is that you think the author should stop working on this research, because if he doesn't then maybe companies will start funding him so he can...do this exact research? Science shouldn't grind to a halt just because not doing it might increase funding.

I had to look that up. I thought that app.net (despite the name) was a twitter clone except that you could write somewhat bigger messages and had to pay for it.

Searched for it on ddg and here is what the excerpt from Wikipedia says: "App.net was an ad-free online social networking service and microblogging service which enabled its users to write messages of up to 256 characters."

Turns out that they did a lot of stuff later that I would have liked but by then I was probably using WhatsApp.

XXRF Shots – Tool to Test SSRF Vulnerabilities
Your response is literally a use of software to socialize. Of course we don't "need" it, but that's a meaningless statement. We don't need computers or electricity either.

The idea that we're all being duped and manipulated into using something we don't need so that we'll view ads is overblown. It's not false, it's just not a new thing and it's not a problem.

Media has been intertwined with market research, ratings, feedback, and advertising since before the electronic age. Advertising platforms have been getting incrementally better at learning what people want, how to push their psychological buttons, and how to retain customers.

There's a tendency to treat social media users as helpless victims of an evil empire who don't realize their personal details are being used to target them for exploitation. People aren't that stupid. They know what they're trading for these great free products we all use.
Air plants are fun and pretty easy - just dunk them in water every so often.

I have a Christmas cactus that is nice. I break off the long pieces and stick them back in the pot and they keep growing. I did this with my aloe plant too.

And I have a cactus or succulent that I know of as a Hot Dog plant, though google wasn’t recognizing that name. It might be a variety of Rhipsalis.

Also I was given a basket of indoor foliage plants and I replanted them into individual pots. Most of them are still growing strong! Looking at a garden center or a florist’s for a basket like that could give you a nice variety of easy-to-grow foliage that would make a good start.
It would've been the same if it were Roscosmos' only comment on the accident.
Since we're just talking telemetry, wouldn't it be more like the delivery guy turning up and taking note of all the contents in your house - including make and model numbers where available - their exact position in each room, which container(s) they're in, the size and position of the nearest windows, and also the make & model number of the alarm system you have.

All "to provide you the best delivery service possible".

Yeah, right. That's completely above board. Suuuuuuure.
It is an implementation of the L4 microkernel API. Microkernel systems can be more reliable than monolithic kernels, but traditionally have the problem of high communication overhead between the services constituting the kernel. The Mach kernel (used by macOS and others) is an example of a known slow microkernel. L4 implementations have been demonstrating since the mid 90s that low overhead microkernels are possible.

I wonder why neither Minix 3 nor Fuchsia are using L4. (I guess they may have learned the main lessons from L4 and chose to write those few thousand lines of code themselves for flexibility and control. Strangely, nobody likes to talk about it.)

This exactly illustrates the problem with downvote as the UI. Think of the same in terms of flagging unacceptable behavior. Then it makes sense and is positive. Only those who learn what is acceptable get to moderate.
Before everyone had to be on Facebook, a few friends and relatives used a hidden forum on someone's spare domain, and it worked really nicely.

A co-op social network sounds an interesting idea. Doubly so if it gave only the sort of features early Facebook had - i.e. the ones useful to the users, before it became about the algorithm, engagement and so on. Wouldn't be surprised if there's something along those lines on github.

It would be really nice to have some choices that actively reject the "users are data cattle" model, even if it goes back to the BBS world of lots of little, barely connected, islands.
Succulents are easiest. Things like peace lillies are also classic. Anything you could get from a supermarket is probably fine.
Not a good habit in rocketry.
I'm just looking through now. It does look pretty good. I'll have to play with it and see if it falls in the right spot between 'I'm too lazy, just point and click' and wanting something lighter-weight and easier to reason about.
10bit h.264 was actually introduced as a way to reduce file size. I'm not familiar with the details, but apparently it reduces noise in the compression algorithm.
Actual bacteria in actual bottles grow exponentially only for a brief period. The grow slows down to cubic, quadratic, linear as the limiting factors become space, area on the bottom of the bottle, height of the culture. Frankly, I see no value in a talk about a toy model that doesn't apply to the real world at all.
Windows 10 works fine for me, much better than 7.

Some plants need a lot of water. Basil does, for example. But succulents in particular don't want much.
1) Git is basically a database with certain requirements around the time dimension, thus static site generators can be equivalently backed by a database with similar properties

2) Datomic is such a database – an accumulate-only log with explicit time dimension that can be queried JOIN-style, WHERE-style and GraphQL-style

3) Thus crud apps backed by Datomic are suitable to be delivered from CDN like static sites – rendered pages, API, everything

Here is such a static site backed by a database: http://www2.hyperfiddle.net/:markdown/ final rendered site: http://www.hyperfiddle.net/ – since it is server rendered React.js, obviously you can use React.js to render your pages, so you get a fully extensible markdown pipeline as you can see.

Here is my blog, a static site: http://www.dustingetz.com/ It is also a progressive web app, so if you navigate around with the browser dev tools open, you will see API requests served from disk since they are Cache-Control: Immutable. Yet, here is the live CRUD dashboard for it's database: http://dustingetzcom.hyperfiddle.net/:hyperblog!dashboard/

It's great for docs, for example: http://docs.hyperfiddle.net/ (We turned off server side rendering for this one but you can leave it on!)

Did I mention Hyperfiddle also does arbitrary CRUD database apps, live in your browser - queries, schema, views, everything?
Wut. The SEC doesn't dictate how a company is valued - it's up to the markets and the participants. There is no "right way" to value a company.

Not sure what the author is talking about.
I felt the same when looking for a generator that could be learned in one afternoon and which would allow me to easily change templates/themes whenever I felt like it, months later. The solution was to rely exclusively on pandoc for markdown to HTML conversion, generating some .md files when necessary (such as from a bibliography, or if so I wanted from a blog/ directory). All without any real templating and relying only upon my bare CSS knowledge -- a nice side effect was forcing me to adopt a minimalist approach.

The entire "generator" is a silly Python script: https://github.com/tresoldi/tresoldi.github.io/blob/master/b... (the site is at http://www.tiagotresoldi.com/ , in case anyone cares).

It might be accurate if you include every tracker on every article page. If that still doesn't get you there, you can pad it out with youtube and netflix.
Somebody feel free to set me straight if I'm wrong (my knowledge of kernels is basically a college class and a half), but it seems the key thing here is that it's a kernel oriented around the L4 cache, which seems interesting because that's shared by the CPU and GPU: https://superuser.com/questions/1073937/what-does-l4-cache-h...

So, intuitively at least it seems it's for sharing the kernel workload with your GPU (supposing your hardware supports it)?
You could try checking outlet.dell.com and filtering by 6th gen CPUs. You'll have to get your Win7 install media and key separately, though.

>If you just discount the rest of the world then you're talking about < 4% of the population of the planet

Talking about a country with population of ~325M which we both happen to live in far from being merely "random examples" in my opinion.

6M jobs in a country of 325M. That's 2 years worth of high school graduates for you. Not exactly inspiring, don't you think?

>The people at the bottom [...] are much better off than the people at the bottom even 50 years ago.

I made my case above why I can't agree with that statement, with sources. If you have a different metric, please provide it, with sources. Then we can discuss that.

>You can't [...] ignore [..] opportunity available today.

Sure, there' plenty of opportunity for some people - including you and me, given that we're on HN. Arguably there's less opportunities for vast amounts of others. Less opportunities than there was in the 70's, in particular.

You can ignore that, but that's a part how we got Trump. Saying that the lives of poor people are improving doesn't seem to bode well with the said poor people.
The Senate Commerce Committee held a hearing yesterday on consumer data privacy. The hearing focused on the perspective of privacy advocates and other experts.The major focus was on implementing a strong common federal consumer privacy bill “that sets a floor, not a ceiling.

What is your take on this privacy bill? Comment below with your thoughts.
I personally favor the federated model.

In there, you can have some communities that run co-op and some that are free to use. It also makes the ecosystem more open compared to centrally managed software, even if it's transparent and without dark patterns.
