I like Nashville and have been thinking about doing just that move: http://seliger.com/2017/10/23/nashville-seen-unseen. It's part of the “The new boomtowns: Why more people are relocating to ‘secondary’ cities,” https://www.washingtonpost.com/realestate/the-new-boomtowns-..., as zoning madness keeps driving the costs of cities like NYC and LA up and up and up.

Still, it's notable to me that Nashville has committed to long-term traffic: https://www.citylab.com/transportation/2018/05/what-went-wro... in way that other cities have not. Denver, for example, keeps building out new rail lines: http://www.rtd-denver.com/Fastracks.shtml.
I used to use KeePass but the lack of a proper crossplatform UI eventually broke it for me; KeePassX on linux looked and performed terribly, the Android app was just bad, etc etc etc.

I switched to 1password which - at least at the time - offered a web-based fallback hosted from your own dropbox. Plus at the time you owned the data and were responsible for storing and syncing it. Dropbox support came out of the box but if you want you can use a local file.
Not built in, but you can install it as easily as on the desktop.
This comment should be voted to the top of the conversation. "Hashed" means absolutely nothing these days.
I’ve never had to use it because I use hardware/software 2FA, but while developing an app recently it worked in a native app. I was stunned and thrilled.
It's less of a feature and more of a convention. Just put "Show HN:" in front of the title if you're showing your work, or "Ask HN:" if you're asking a question without linking to an existing article. For "Show HN", it's customary to only submit each project once.

There is also "Tell HN:" but afaik it's mostly used by the mods, dang and sctb, to announce rule changes or new features.
I wouldn't expect it to remain affordable for long.

It really depends on how the city chooses to restrict housing supply; we have the technology to ensure that housing is affordable, but most American cities make deploying said technology illegal: https://www.amazon.com/Rent-Too-Damn-High-Matters-ebook/dp/B....

Time to make another contribution to Mozilla. I have not been using Firefox on my MacBook or iPad, but I recently bought a Linux laptop and as an experiment I am only using Firefox. Nice experience. I might install Chrome just for accessing Google properties because I like to isolate interactions with Google, but that is in no way in criticism of Firefox.
Yes, it is getting better, from dismal.
Hm, my first thought is "will this work with carlo?" [0].

I'm excited about that project, but one big downside is that Chrome has to be installed. It would be great to write desktop applications that render through a browser, without having to either download Chrome (like carlo) or bundle it (like electron).

Computer Modern is bearable in print (although there are many better-designed options from commercial font designers if you want a good 18th century style Didone face).

The problem is that most documents set in Computer Modern are not read on paper but on screens, where its legibility is very poor due to the extreme contrast between stroke widths.

Yes, seriously. Less populated places tend to be less individualistic.
I never really got it why people cheat on expenses. Apart from the fact that theft (at least in this case) is morally repugnant it's a sure fire way to get fired if your employer needs any reason at all.

Expenses, as implied in the name, are meant to reimburse employees for expenses fronted for their employers. It's not an enrichment scheme to pad your salary or to lay off unrelated expenses on your employer.

Bonus for those geniuses, which expense strip club visits. This seems the expense equivalent of surfing porn at work; stupid!
This is not a weird bug. It’s Google tailoring their products for their own browser and ignoring the others (Safari has the same “issue”). It’s their prerogative to do so, but I think they’re risking getting hit by antitrust for these kinds of antics in the future.
> My GF is an elementary school teacher and she says
Respectfully, I've spent a _great deal of time_ with elementary school teachers, and many appear very very willing to diagnose random children, adults, and coworkers as being "a bit autistic", and so on.

I've had a very similar experience with the people I know who are trying to be teachers, though most of the people I deal with are either in or just out of college and this could be attributed to inexperience.

I find it a little troubling that I see people practically seeking examples of unusual social behavior and attributing it to autism. I saw this sort of pseudo-analysis happen a lot with Sheldon in Big Bang Theory. Opinions of the show aside, I don't think it was ever explicitly stated that he had a social disorder.
>If building a new network from scratch

How so? You're talking about literal tons of batteries, and the charging stations for them. And you have to replace those batteries every decade because their useful lifespan is less than 20,000 cycles.

>or replacing diesel

Sure, if you are just replacing a couple of buses it would make sense.

>Also, batteries are charged overnight, allowing cheap off-peak energy to be used

Batteries have to be charged multiple times per day. It isn't feasible for a bus to carry around an entire day of energy in batteries, the extra weight uses more extra energy than is worthwhile. And lots of places don't have cheap off-peak electricity, they have a single rate.

I can't find the parent to my comment.. but I'm fairly certain this thread was talking about default-installs of browsers, of course a lot of complaints can be fixed with plugins, but how many users actually go through the trouble? If a high enough percentage of Chrome users were installing uBlockOrigin on Chrome, I'm sure Google would do something about it.

Regarding Tree-Style Tabs... I wish I could agree with you, I have been trying various Tree-Style Tab plugins on multiple occasions over the years, often for months at a time... before always giving up out of frustration and resorting back to tabs on top. I honestly can't tell you the exact reasons, but it's generally a frustrating experience... initial transition takes a couple days, plus issues like lack of proper hotkey support e.g. tab/ctrl-tab for tab switching, ctrl-f4 to close a tab, ctrl-t to open a new tab, some or all of those hotkeys tend to not work properly. Multi-screen support was also... lacking, for lack of a better description. There were various other minor annoyances and quirks with every plugin... and I tried various plugins for FF and Chrome before ditching all of them. I will probably try again soon, now that FF Quantum has been out for awhile, hopefully more plugins have been created.

All the users I forced to use Firefox, decided that Chrome was faster, and they were more than 100s of them.

( And as a user I knew that too. I just wanted to support Firefox. )

So saying Firefox Doesn't suck may be partially right. As we will have to define "suck" first. But saying it is as fast as Chrome during Firefox 4 and early Chrome era is just the same as saying earth is flat.
Why am I seeing 10% for Firefox while the title says "below 9%"?

Is it an incorrect title?
I wonder what the numbers would be if FF forks were included. I see Seamonkey in the list, but no Waterfox or Pale Moon, etc. Surely wouldn't be any great number, but is curious the forks are not listed.
The OP specifically calls out ways that nulls cause problems in dynamic languages. In fact, they're very similar to the problems nulls cause in statically typed languages, just ignoring some of them because danger is already priced in with a dynamic language.

Dynamically typed programs are usually informally "duck typed," since it's impossible to do something meaningful with truly arbitrary types most of the time. But just like in statically typed languages, there's always the very real possibility that your duck will instead be a null — and the bug is not the function returning a non-duck, it's you ever assuming you have something that quacks like a duck.

It's been happening for decades though. Kids don't watch Saturday morning cartoons these days or wait to see what toy will be in the next McDonald's happy meal. They watch YouTube and see ads there.

Internet advertising isn't regulated but in a way it self-regulates. Content creators don't want in-appropriate ads and YouTube doesn't want that either when a channel is targeted for 8yo, it would make them lose money.

You can conceptualize the Maybe based on the NULL, but there's no point in the compilation or runtime in which they actually become NULLs, it's just a regular container value.

AI and the Future of Murder
I truly appreciate your insightful and detailed reply! I've got some reading and thinking to do for sure, your links about hermeticism are particularly new to me.

I've always found the "hidden" aspect of gnosis to be strange, and perhaps even antithetical. There's a piece in Thomas that's equivalent to Luke 8:16-17 which to me seems to scream "share what you learn", but with the historical norm of persecuting gnostics, it's not surprising that they valued some degree of secrecy for protection. Though you're right that it does seem to go further than that, ie, witholding info as a means of controlling membership in the group in many cases. But thankfully yes, the internet has blown the lid off many "secret" sources indeed!

Again, I appreciate you sharing all of this with me and look forward to learning more through continued study.
I'm also slightly surprised by the first two replies.

Expenses should definitely not be a method to get back at your employer for perceived and real sleighs. Probably, if your employer steals from you this problem should be corrected at source and not via expense claims.

For what it's worth: I think that (as a for example) an Amazon employee stands in the queue for half an hour, in order to get security checked, and is not paid for that that's wage theft. Plain and simple. No matter if the courts disagree.

Nevertheless you shouldn't fib expenses (as if those folks could) to get back at your employer.
Could Microsoft at least open-source their Edge code, so others can develop it further? It's really important for the openness of the web that we don't get a Chromium/Webkit monoculture.

In my experience, the larger studios go two ways: you'll have a support infrastructure and a mentor to guide your learning the ropes for a brief period (EA/Sony). This is maybe 1 in 5 of the larger studios. The remainder will be you're dropped into production and have to figure it out as you go, while being mindful that the "associate producer" or whatever title they give you is a glaring target others use blame situations simply because you'll not have social political support yet. The larger studios are ALL about internal politics, with literally a hierarchy of upper levels shitting on lower levels, and that shit cascade being "how we do things around here".

Here is a (somewhat related) instance of what you are talking about: A New Mexico Resident drove for 11 hours to break into the home of Gavin Free and Meg Turney, with intentions to kill Free [0]. It seems he became obsessed with Turney and wanted Free to die "alone and without children". Obviously there were other mental health factors at play and it wasn't just "youtube fame did this", but it is a case of this largely one-sided relationship-dynamic.

Yup that’s what I meant. The right click -> add as search engine creates a bookmark which doesn’t get the blue highlight when using it. That distinction just doesn’t make sense to me.
You're a definitely a programmer and not a marketer. When you control the product, you control the experience.
I totally understand this move, but I would rather find a way to subsidize open source development that at least comes close to being able to pay FANG level salaries. It sucks to put a decision in front of someone that they can work on open source, but they'll have to take a massive pay cut and be more selective about where they live.

I love NYC. I want to do open source and I want to live in comfort in this city.

Udacity's ND used to be amazing, their Self-driving Car ND was the single greatest online course I've ever taken in my life. Sadly, they now dumbed it down, made it 2-term (original was 3-term). There were some issues with other NDs where marketing was not translating to real experience, such as AI ND, where 2nd term was so dumbed down it could be finished in a weekend, or the late changes to Robotics ND 2nd term that removed a real robot from the plan and instead offered academic discount on Jetson TX2. Also, Deep Reinforcement Learning project's scope changed massively for worse (instead of robot walking it turned into moving a robotic arm). Despite these warts, where else could you get intro to bleeding edge frameworks like TensorFlow/Keras/PyTorch 2 years ago on complex real-world problems (self-driving car, 3D object recognition etc.)? They simply had no competition there, but that market might be too small. Coursera/edX is way behind the curve with their academic courses.

Seriously? 30 percent? That seems quite unbelievable unless you're defining your terms to include reimbursements that are within most normal travel policies. EDITED e.g. employees book their preferred airlines, hotel chains, etc. even if they're not the absolute cheapest.
Which Is the Real Girl with a Pearl Earring? (12 Minutes)
Please do. Yours sounds a bit more comprehensive than the current state of OP's.
Much of what we were taught about hard work was pushed by exploiters of peasantry whose fallen descendants would literally risk a disgraceful death and believed damnation as highwaymen rather than work a day in their lives. It just perpetuated and their lies got out of their control and got many of them killed several times historically - from Cromwell to communism. And it didn't end too well for their deposers either - from their own actions no less.

The truth is hard work can pay off not that it does and working smarter is always a better option.
> Mozilla has the hardcore geeks on their side. Even during the V30 to v50 transition period where Firefox was, at the time, clearly an inferior product, we kept using it to support it for the sheer ideal of it. We hoped it would come back from it, and it happened: Firefox is now a fast, lean and fantastic browser again.

I use Firefox. I always have. My experience is totally different to yours. Before FF57 it was a single process and it ran nicely on a 4GB machine with a 2009 Intel Atom processor. Afterwards it became much hungrier for memory and processor. I had to buy a new computer. (I tried Chrome of course but it is hungrier.)

> another thing that's frequently criticised by those who don't actually understand how computers work and try to "solve" problems by merely slathering everything in thicker and thicker layers of leaky abstraction

I think that you're being quite unkind. Haskell's Maybe type and Rust's Option types are very far from "leaky abstractions" and were developed by people who definitely understand how computers work. In fact, your description of them appears to indicate that you aren't really sure how they work (None doesn't take up "half of the value") -- the point of typeclasses is that cases where NULL is a reasonable value are explicit and your code won't compile if you don't handle NULL cases. Allowing NULL implicitly for many (if not all) types is where problems lie.

It also appears you're arguing that languages which don't have models that are strictly identical to the von Neumann architecture are "merely slathering everything [with] leaky abstraction". Would you argue that LISPs are just leaky abstractions?
The SecurityManager is an example of ambient authority, exactly the kind of design that the article is criticizing.

There's at most one SecurityManager per application, meaning you can't in general use it for fine-grained confinement. It's only "granular" in the sense that requested permissions can be arbitrarily finely subdivided. There's no notion of intra-application invocation contexts, making it vulnerable to "confused deputy" problems, including things like the event-stream incident.
An article that lambasts the project because it was insanely expensive and sucks. $1.2M buses with a range of 37km. They charge those batteries so often they will need replaced frequenty. A charging station is $800k. For an 11km route. The cost for an overhead wire installation for 11km is roughly that same price, and it would save all the battery costs for the 7 buses that will eventually use it.
