Earning Passive Income with Phone Farming
Charitable contributions weren't tax-deductible when Rockefeller was 16. Hell, there was no income tax when Rockefeller was 16.

He probably did it to gain favor with God (most of his charity was church-based until he got fabulously wealthy), but of all the things done in the name of God, charity is a pretty good one.

In general no, but when it comes to plonking them down in front of a screen and turning on YouTube, that’s very much your choice. I don’t think that makes you a shitty parent either, but I think you’re misplacing your trust and it has a good chance of coming back to haunt you.
Is there some sort of legalese question you can ask to learn if the body of water you're about to enter is classified as a lake? Like: "is this a pool?". Sounds like a pretty big hole in the safety laws!
Why isn’t there a Popcorn Time equivalent of children’s programming? Mr. Rogers, Sesame Street, Avatar:TLA and similar vetted content only. And strong parental controls if parents want to further limit the content.

Yeah, agree. I've worked on both very simple and intuitive Javascript codebases, and absolutely heinous ones that should honestly just be abandoned.

I do think JS has a lot more variation in complexity than other ecosystems though.

I think I now understand why micromanagement seems to be discussed so often with implied cringe. Ouch :/

It sounds like this person conflated coordination with (for want of better words) inspiration or direction. Or perhaps this person found their job, uh, insufficiently fulfilling and convinced themselves it would be okay to try and do something about this by being able to pat themselves on the back for the actual invention and inspiration process. Sounds like they unfortunately nailed looking like they knew what they were doing :/

I've read some sentiment on here to the effect that a good manager is the real catalyst to productivity and positivity. Perhaps the second level of good management is an accessible chain of busy but available ears - so weak links can be objectively identified and then fixed.

Of course, this is one of those mechanisms that only ever exists to convey bug reports - you implement it, suddenly the "problem report" count goes through the roof, with nothing else to counterbalance it. But I'd bet that if you tracked team productivity after said bug reports were followed up on... heheh (why does nobody do this ._.)
Not sure why that would be. Our ancestors survived an ice age while outcompeting Neanderthals with primitive stone aged technology, and spread from Africa all the way to Easter Island, the depths of the Amazon and Tasmania.
I've found it useful to have a pair of earplugs underneath my noise-cancelling headphones.
The sheer ignorance surrounding cryptomarkets is quite staggering. I'm first to call a good part of it a sham but simply writing off everyone is naive, low effort discourse.

Gemini is owned by the billionaire Winklevoss twins, its based in and regulated by NY, the most notoriously heavy handed cryptocurrency jurisdiction on Earth. Many exchanges won't even do business with customers from NY.

Think it's fair to say that they're not "stupid"
I strongly recommend that you don't let your kids watch YouTube. There's some really low-quality garbage out there and there's just too much to properly curate. After some exploring on my own I absolutely do not trust YouTube at all to filter appropriately. This is just pure garbage streaming into your kids' faces.

Do anything else, Netflix at least has some barrier for kids content... but torrent a bunch kids shows if you have to.
Is Docker really worth a 1B plus valuation, given the services already available from the big 3 cloud providers?
Liquidation preference is one. Basically holders of the preferred stock get to cash out first and common stock holders get whatever’s left. In case of an exit at a lower than before valuation, for example, it’s not unusual for common stock to lose most (or all) of its value.

The Venture Deals book is really insightful on this (and general startup financing) subject.

Teachers have been making the same argument for decades.

I remember a big anti-video game and anti-tv push when I was in elementary school.
My toddler watches shows on there.

It's been good to teach him colours, but it's all very low quality videos with clearly chinese-english influence.

My biggest concern is not the content of those, it's the automatic skip after the episode is over, to "whatever" youtube feels right afterwards, and also the ads being played between episodes, some are about gaming, but violent, and a toddler takes everything he sees as "real".
How are mercenaries different than regular soldiers? One is directly employed by the government, one is contracted by the government. Other commenters here have shown the contractors are nearly entirely defensive anyways.

Eh, I think both you and the poster below are making a mistake in using the population of the city center of Detroit. The city center is making a bit of a comeback, but the majority of the population lives in the surrounding metro area, which still has a population of roughly 3.7 million.

And before you complain about that being a much bigger area, here's the land area for metro Detroit compared to some of China's biggest cities:

Detroit metro: 1,337.1 sq mi

Guangzhou Urban: 1,483.95 sq mi / ~11 million

Shanghai Urban: 1,550 sq mi / ~24 million

Chengdu Urban: 1,760.0 sq mi / ~11 million

Chinese cities typically have boundaries roughly equivalent to US metro areas. They certainly have larger populations than Detroit, but not as much as you guys think.

this is tautological; murder is immoral by definition. killing is a superset of murder, and people disagree on what types of killing are immoral.
Nobody really has a right to tell parents how to parent. Parenting is hard.

Personally, I don’t let mine near YouTube unless we’re looking something up together. They’re allowed kids Netflix but even that has plenty of content I don’t let them watch. Annoyingly, there’s no way to remove a show from Netflix. I’ve been meaning to make a chrome extension so I can blast the likes of Horseland into another dimension.
The original point was that the Odyssey was "better than" the Iliad. Why does popularity come into that at all?
We can tell that 3 arguments are being applied to eql from that expression; when this is compiled, the generated call will pass 3 arguments, regardless of whether eql likes that, or whether such a function even exists. In the absence of any static checks, it will have to be caught at run time; but it will be caught.

Also, Lisp supports variadic functions with the same safety. Delimitation of arguments is necessary for variadic functions, like list.

The structure of every top-level form is an actual tree object in memory that is constructed before anything else happens. It can be walked by macros, or quoted so that the program accesses it as data directly.

Basically, nothing like Forth.
It will apparently also be configurable using static files written in HCL (Terraform syntax).
And who are you to judge? You as a parent are welcome to see parenting your own way without imposing it to other or shaming them.
You can turn off autoplay on the top right of any video page, but it's a local cookie and not stored in your account, so you have to do it separately on every device and, in my experience, does seem to have a habit of randomly turning itself back on again.
I dunno. My kids like to take YouTube things and bring them into the real world in imaginative play. You have to block peppa pig Spider-Man dentist but it’s not specifically bad. My kids are great at iPads fyi and there are a lot of educational apps. The only downside is my kids want to make YouTube videos now. Which when I was a kid my cousins put on plays and my friends and I made home made videos too.
1-8 and 13 have been true for me.

Would you say that a filament that burned for a few minutes is a light bulb? Perhaps it would be better to term it light-from-electricity. (But then after you invent that word, wouldn't you say light-from-electricity was invented by nature through lighting?)

The point being that everyone sits on the shoulder of giants, and the above article half a play on semantics, and half an interesting history of items that preceded Edison's practical light bulb.
We are arguing over rather or not a body saying they haven't reviewed rather or not something fits a definition qualifies as not fitting that definition.

> So is Unix.

The Unix Hater’s Handbook [1] is a pretty good read (or skim). It’s healthy to remind oneself that, even though unix-likes are a savior from the deeply unpleasant alternatives, warts are present.

That is more or less correct, but it's a very weird situation. Scurvy had been known -- along with effective cures -- for thousands of years. The method of curing scurvy hasn't been secret since -- at the latest -- the Ebers papyrus of ~1500 BC, which correctly prescribed feeding the patient an onion. And in fact cures were widely known throughout the world since that time, including in Europe. Note again that James Lancaster had heard that lemons were effective against scurvy, 200 years before the Navy got around to requiring them.

From https://tudorblog.com/2012/06/16/voyage-of-the-scurvy/ :

> from about 1500 to 1800 two million sailors are estimated to have died from scurvy on expeditions to Asia, Africa and the New World.

> Why no cure? In Tudor England an effective treatment, scurvy grass (a corruption of cress), was commonly recommended; at the same time the Portuguese knew a cure, and so did the Spanish and the Dutch. For unknown reasons such wisdom was applied inconsistently (even by Britain’s Royal Navy after the Napoleonic Wars) until the identification of vitamin C in the 20th century.

It looks more like a case of the people making the decisions being unfortunately disconnected from the people who knew what scurvy was and how to deal with it. (And wilfully ignoring those who tried to point it out to them.)
I'm not following your logic. How will fatter margins for Google lead to less of this behavior?
Yes, the OSD tries to include legality in "seeing and modifying". If you regard Open Source as just "seeing and modifying" the source then anything that you can get the source code for is Open Source. This is most definitely not the case, as illustrated by my previous example of Windows 2000. Please see [0] and [1] for more info. Confusingly, there are still copies of the W2K source on github which have an MIT license in the root which is, I assume, false and unauthorized by MS [2].

Again, not involved in the selection process but...

What if a candidate's race results in him/her being placed in a 'race' pool? At that point, one's race doesn't help or hurt.

Then once the pools are formed, one starts looking at the #s. I'd wager that lots of European(-Americans)/"Whites" apply. So that pool = competitive.

The Asian(American) pool, lower #s, but higher than the groups not yet mentioned, and thus = competitive.

Probably few "Black" applicants, same w/ "Hispanic", and since Senator Warren is a topic of conversation, absolutely the same w/ "Native Americans." (BTW, I hate using these race terms.)

Then start thinking about who did (didn't apply) and why (self-selecting). Anyway, if we assume that many of the "Asian" applicants are "model minorities" who have been driven by their parents to, well, be model, the Asian pool is going to be ultra-competitive academically. (Wish I knew how to play w/ formatting here, because I want to highlight 'academically'.) So all that happens there, is that they've gone all cut-throat on each other because they're still in the "Asian" pool. Anyway, the argument could then be made that it was simply the numbers and competitiveness of the applicants (which I believe is always stated in the ding letters) that results in getting rejects getting dinged, not their "race".

Anyway, the factors that make different candidates desirable are, as previously stated, 'complex'. But people who want to figure it out can with some digging and quite a bit of logic. These places are not bastions of altruism. They're businesses and extensions of "things". The schools admit the applicants who they think will best serve their purposes. Take a look at the range of characters who have attended their various programs.

As for Affirmative Action, again, people would be wise to do some research. Ira Katznelson has an interesting book on the development and implementation.[1] Admittedly, the title may seem inflammatory so some, but it isn't entirely wrong and was given to him by another "White" guy who's currently at a DC think tank founded by a 'Republican'. It should also be said that there are many "Black" people who would be happy to see AA done away with because it has essentially been used to benefit everyone but them, even though it was written (supposedly) exclusively to benefit African-Americans. But this would be an even longer conversation that then reaches back into how and why "Asians" came to be the "model minority", and whether or not the achievements that another poster mentioned here are actually solely their own, etc. All stuff I'm not really interested in doing here now, or have done a bit of in related past posts.

Anywho, thanks for following up, and all the best.

I've eyed the lower cost phones from Chinese brands. But I have a hard time generating trust.

I don't know whether or how much better off I am with a U.S. based brand/"manufacturer". All this stuff is is made over there, and brands continue to migrate, as well (Motorola, ThinkPad (it's Lenovo's, now -- as is Motorola, for that matter), etc.). Barring better choices, I'm hoping that the U.S. part of the operation is keeping an eye out and testing for deviations.

With all the Chinese stuff, I keep thinking, TANSTAAFL.
Don't mind him/her. Distracting a single-digit-aged human long enough to put dinner on the table or get some work done is hard on the best of days.

I don't have kids so I'm curious, why youtube? I assume most families don't have the time for a full time parental distraction but is there really no other alternative? I'd imagine Disney or some other media giant would have figured something out by now. Is youtube content just so practically endless and passive enough that no one can compete? Or is it just that they don't like gaming or TV shows that much (or you dont allow it)?
If you never liked the OSI's definition of "open source", what do you think about the Debian Free Software Guidelines?

Thanks. Did we ever hear Gates’ side of the story?

I can imagine there could be good reason to dilute someone by issuing more stock to the remaining productive collaborators. That would depend on the scale, and method used to calculate the proportion, and of on obtaining consent from the diluted party.
1. Yes, you are. Maybe point two will help see why.

2. You can't define anything beyond a platitude without some sort of values prioritization. Real world definitions will inherently use a value hierarchy. This is where the conflation comes in.

3. Mostly agree, which is why I said real world execution will vary depending on the value system of the population in question. The vast majority of Americans have a fairly similar idea of individual liberty as a general idea/platitude. But again, the value system hierarchy will produce different real world definitions in different scenarios. In order to go from platitude to real world application you have to invoke your value system hierarchy. Which side of any given issue you fall on depends greatly on that hierarchy.

4. See below.

5. I think we're getting caught up in semantics and don't actually disagree on this point. What is shared by the two parties is they each have the same goal: Happiness for themselves. Bob's happiness may conflict with Alice's because of how they are trying to achieve it, but again, they need to talk and sort out why this is happening so that they can get on the optimal path. I think when you say "goal" you are including the means to achieve happiness. I am not. I am simply talking about the pure emotional state. Get more conservatives on campus and we can figure out more ways of achieving happiness that are mutually compatible.
Yeah, my oldest is actually brilliant and has learned many advanced things from YT educational videos way ahead of the curve. It's a powerful tool for self-directed education.. and also for junky toddler crack.

The problem is these content farms and ultimately the low payouts. Listen up YouTube: I would happily pay for better quality kids content. I'm about to trial Amazon FreeTime...
Like that other poster boy Donald Trump?
It's more like this: all the work that was previously accomplished just on desktop apps is moving to the web and all the various camps that previously lived in their own language/framework silos are reinventing themselves in within the js ecosystem. If that happened in the historical silos, nobody would notice. But since it all happens on the common js substrate, we see the big mix.
That's my experience, and why I pulled the plug on it. Unless you're on top of your kid the entire time, it's incredibly difficult to keep an eye on that. YouTube is designed to just shove as much content in front of your face as possible, quality, content, age-appropriateness, be damned.
Hacker News is a single entity. Reddit is a conglomeration of sub forums, each with their own interests, rules and moderators.

Reddit is a very cosmopolitan environment. It's like a big city, where you can participate in different social groups and there can be overlap in members, but it isn't guaranteed. Your behavior on one sub forum can impact your reputation on another, but it isn't the same as a situation where you deal with the same moderators and same group of people all the time for everything.

I don't hang on "the front page" of Reddit. I have a few niche interests I dabble in a bit over there.

I occasionally consider writing a blog post to talk about some of the differences between forums of various formats that I've experienced. It's more than I care to try to catalog in a comment here.

But when you say "HN is like Reddit," that doesn't even parse for me. Because it's like "So, exactly what part of Reddit are you comparing it to?" It strikes me as a six blind men and the elephant scenario.
Yeah, I remember 10 years ago (or more), they were looking into ways to make it more mobile friendly, including Roster Versioning (so you wouldn't need the whole series of transactions to get your roster on initial connection), session keepalive (the basic protocol expects one long TCP session, which is of course impractical on mobile), and stream compression.

Sadly, those weren't really enough at the time, and the new protocol Babel happened.

I miss the graphical clustering representation.

If you searched for something like "rust", you would clearly see multiple clusters which would include a big chunk of stuff around "ferrous oxide" and a smaller cluster around the "programming language".

You could click on the specific cluster you wanted, and the results would rank/limit to just that.

I would kill for that back ...
