Google I(dentity)A(ware)P(roxy) is actually a hosted beyondcorp implementation! But I probably should have explained that in my original comment.

When I worked in markets I would often get asked questions in the form of: should I short X? Should I trade X currency now or later?

More specifically many questioned whether they should buy GBP/USD the day before brexit or the day after. The only good advice is to buy 50% the day before and 50% the day after, that way you are wrong both times.
I don't see the point of this except it is open-source. Take a look regarding how you load the SVG as well.

"Spray cow manure on fields to encourage plant grown. Done right you can actually increase topsoil, burying older plants under newer ones and store hydrocarbons there."

Fair enough, but can that process be achieved with net-negative carbon emissions ?

I live in rural Marin County which is featured in this article and is (currently) ground zero for this kind of research. There are several ranches near mine that have adopted these practices specifically to combat climate change.[1]

After you raise the cattle (with all of the carbon emissions that entails) and then transport their manure in a large ICE truck (but not large enough to get economies of fuel efficiency like a semi on a highway would have) and then use a big tractor and/or bulldozer to unload and move it ...

You've got four or six or eight guys there at the ranch doing the labor and of course they don't live there - and the reality of Marin County land values and rents dictates that they probably live an hour or more away in Santa Rosa or Vacaville or worse. And of course they drive as large of pickup trucks as their paycheck will possibly support to transport their single body to that worksite.

And then you have to maintain the process by tilling or turning the material - again with tractors or bulldozers and again with more workers who drive to the site.

It sounds like I'm getting unfair and nit-picking here but that's the whole point: the exercise makes no sense unless it is carbon net-negative so you have to add all of these costs to the ledger.

I would be overjoyed if it penciled out, but very skeptical that it does.

Fun fact, in Poland (population ~35M), every person has a public identifier in a format of:

YYMMDDXXXXC

Where YYMMDD is date of birth, XXXX a number, and C a checksum.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PESEL#Format

It works very well, and - since it's for identification, not authentication - you don't have to worry about it leaking out too much, like you would with SSN.
The last comment is quite rude and clearly unsubstantiated.
The writer speaks of missing the daughters childhood. That is not postpartum depression.

I see a mother respecting the boundaries a young person is experimenting with as she forms new relationships outside her parental ones. Something I expect is quite difficult as both parties make mistakes.

You speak as if you find human disconnect baffling. Perhaps you've had no trouble in your relationships, but I'm extremely disconnected from your apparent perspective that parental relationships with teenagers can't be a source of a lot of pain for all parties.

(I write as a 22 year old remembering my own somewhat recent teenage years.)
I used to be a power user on Quora. It's how I learned about the coding bootcamp that eventually became the catalyst for a huge career change in my life.

I'd spend countless hours answering questions about my experiences and the school I attended, with the intention of just helping give back to the community.

Over the years, Quora became an relentless flood of "ask to answer" questions that were already on the site, ones asking me to compare "X coding bootcamp vs Y coding bootcamp" (like, how would someone know if they only attended one?), or just ridiculous comments from entitled people who expected the world with their questions.

I eventually deleted all of my answers and deactivated my account. It's just no longer worth contributing to a site that's very obviously devolved to "Yahoo Answers, with influencer spam"
It depends on what you're taking pictures of. A lot of people seem to snap pictures of landscape, with or without other strangers in it. Those are the kind of pictures that aren't really durably interesting over the long haul. For well known places you can always find a pro who did a wonderful job capturing it. Now, if you're taking pictures of yourself and/or your friends, that makes perfect sense to me. As long as it doesn't get in the way of actually enjoying the experience.
Many comments here about investing in crypto is same as gambling. So what if it is? (and it is in my opinion). I buy a little bit of crypto each month and are just leaving them for a couple of years to see what happens. Why? Because the odds in the crypto lottery is better than any other lottery that I know of.
I'll literally click on the playlist I'm listening to right now and start listing albums that don't appear available physically on Amazon.

(1) Til The End - MitiS
(2) Dear Me, - Borgeous
(3) Ultraviolet - 3LAU
(4) Mau5ville Level 1 - Deadmau5
(5) Sleeping With Roses - Chelsea Cutler

I could go on, because I literally didn't skip a single song. I started at the top and went down. On this playlist of 300 songs, I would guess that fewer than 20 have physical albums widely available. In some cases, the artist will sell one on their website (ironically LPs are even more popular nowadays).

And why should they? CDs suck. But they do two things really well: they have clear ownership, and they're pretty close to a master recording. Digital does not have to remove these advantages; we can improve instead of regress. Products like Bandcamp do an excellent job of replicating this experience digitally, but few artists distribute on there, because consumers-at-large demand music on Spotify/iTunes/GPM/etc. Tidal also does a really good job of getting masters, but doesn't have the "you own it" advantage.

In other words, consumers have ruined music for both the artists and audiophiles by changing the rules of the game and forcing the markets to adapt in a way that isn't backward compatible with how things have worked. Artists make shit money on most streaming services, and people who actually care about the audio quality also get shafted.

Digital cameras were useful since day 1. Nobody was confused about what to do with them. What you're talking about as "usable" is just technological refinement that happens to all things.

I would encourage you to submit a problem statement with your proposed method to TCRP research program [0,1]. Unfortunately the 2019 solicitation is closed, but the 2020 solicitation will open early next year. A better vehicle tracking method than the current block-level tracking is something that would be valuable to sub-surface transit system in the USA and if what you propose (or something similar) is feasible, the statement stands a real good chance of getting funded for a research project. And if the project is funded, you can even bid on the research work. I'm active on the TBR ADC040 subcommittee, if you have questions, hit me up (my twitter is on my profile) and I'll see if I can connect you to the right person.

I write this in all seriousness - this isn't a "if you're so smart why don't you do it" post, I'm writing this in acknowledgement that there are a lot of smart people on HN, and if there's a chance to improve US transit, I'm all for it.

Biological sex is most often male or female, but not always. People can be born intersex (with genitalia that are neither clearly male nor female, which is often “corrected” surgically at birth, and/or with genitalia that don’t match what’s expected from their chromosomes, and/or with chromosome combinations other than XX or XY). Chimerism can result in different parts of the body having different sex chromosomes. It’s not strictly monolithic or binary.

That aside, yes, “sex” broadly refers to biology in some way, though often oversimplified, while “gender” refers to identity and expression (which also don’t necessarily go hand in hand).
Yep ,I still met some last disoriented hippies in 79 in Bali and Lombok. There were about 5 travellers in the whole of Lombok and the long beach in Kuta belonged to me alone for five days.
I've seen this book recommended from time to time. I have a condition that falls within the book's purported domain, but when I read the synopsis, it raised all kinds of red flags. As a skeptic, what about this book let it through your filters? I really want to be open to it.
That’s the thing though. We all enjoy experiences differently. Taking pictures helps me focus on interesting events and primes me to notice more about them. 90% of the time I never look at those photos again but the act of having taken them helps the event stick in my memory longer.

Like taking notes during meeting or whatever. It’s a mindfulness device.
Haha no not in general, but at this point Coinbase has survived some pretty severe market swings, so if you ask me with no additional info (of which I have basically none on Coinbase) I'd assume they at least have some institutional awareness that a 90% drop in all the coins they offer is not perceived to be an "INF sigma" event. (Which it probably was perceived as for a vast number of the know-nothing ICO schemes)

This would be really helpful.
Aha! That's an interesting question. "Pennies in front of the steamroller" is an oversimplification. Only DAI seems to be paying a high rate right now, other tokens not so much. It may be just because of supply and demand, there is quite a lot of demand for borrowing DAI. Why there might be demand for borrowing DAI may be too complex to explain to the hackernews crowd, so I'll leave it at that...
There's a tendency toward misguided objectivity/rationalism here sometimes, but it should be clear your reasoning is fine, even it doesn't prove anything, which you seem very aware of. What more could someone want from an individual internet comment?
Same here. Backpacking Asia in mid-2000s. Already had a digital camera, but had to stop at internet cafes now and then to burn them to CD and mail them home. Haha.
I never found the quality to be anywhere near as good as Stack Exchange, even when Quora first launched. Why anyone would knowingly use Quora over Stack Exchange is a mystery to me; I suspect that most Quora users simply aren't aware that Stack Exchange exists, since SE traditionally catered primarily to a technical audience.

Edit: One of my biggest gripes with the platform is that it's always solicited a large number of promotional answers. Anytime I end up on Quora, I'm usually stuck scrolling through a long list of "Use my product, it's the best!" answers. It appears to make no effort to discourage or remove such content, and, for whatever reason, those answers tend to get heavily upvoted.
I would use Elm. The language itself is very high level, but designed to be as simple as possible. I think that's ideal for a child still far from the job market, who might never need to learn how to do all that bit-twiddling that programmers don't even realise they are doing most of the time. https://elm-lang.org/

But you'd have to do some work to assemble resources and learn how it works yourself. Examples of the kind of stuff you can start with at http://outreach.mcmaster.ca/showcase.html. Anything you make can be published to the web.
I think it has to do with how early esports went mainstream in SK, especially in the SC:BW scene.

Many of the people in government right now were probably into competitive gaming back then, so it makes sense that relatively more interest would go into gaming-related legislation.
"I had never asked to see Paulina’s feed. I didn’t even know the name she used."

I think therein lies a big part of the problem. She's feeling rejected that her 15 year old daughter won't listen to her acoustic cover of some band from her generation, but then doesn't express interest in this huge part of her daughter's generation.

I don't have children so this is just armchair/backseat parenting which I understand is much easier from the sidelines. That being said, it seems very evident to me that it would probably help her tremendously if she would update herself with pop culture and technology a little bit to make herself a more accessible and relatable to her daughter, because playing music from yester-generation is only going to make herself seem more foreign and distant (in this particular scenario)
I fell in to the karma trap on reddit years ago and I ended up trying to conform to trends to maximize my karma. Its a really boring way to use a website and I found myself not saying a lot of things because I know they will be downvoted and I will lose my internet points. These days I don't give a shit about karma and I say whatever I want. I feel better about sharing opinions and I say what I really think.
I wouldn’t say COMPLETELY arbitrary?
This is cool. One nit: The "read more about" button isn't a button, but a clickable div. So it doesn't look like a clickable element to Vimium, screen readers, etc.

Otherwise, good job.
> there's no value-driven economic model to justify cryptos collectively being worth $50B-$100B.

Of course there is. You are just starting from your ideology (that there must be no value to them) and work backwards to your dismissal and so you have closed your mind to the possibilities.

Here's 1.8 trillion of possible value, just to help put things in perspective

Not saying it's right. Just that there is much you have not considered.

The downward spiral in price will only result in you having to buy more units of currency to pay the same dollar amount of ransom.

It's the same with the dark markets. It's not like dealers are suddenly going to charge less money for drugs now just because the intermediary transaction currency is worth less.
SE is much more difficult to start using than Quora, which is also probably why it has higher quality content. Quora has absolutely no quality control.
Yet another reason to use an extension like uMatrix to disallow javascript by default, and only allow the absolute minimum that sites you trust need to function.
To be honest, most hits on Google with Quora results are spam. I don’t see any value, unless it’s tucked away in some industry specific topics that I’m not interested in.
> You don't own the book itself though,

To be blunt: Who really cares?

I care that I can read it. After I have I don't see further use for the ownership.

Others can claim they can revoke my access before the read event occurs but the chance of that is so low that I imagine it rounds to 0%.
> MVMT and DW somehow managed to bootstrap

MVMT and the like have come about due to forums and blogs. there’s no somehow about it. as mid market buyers have flocked to places where they can display and discuss their wares, MVMT etc have sprung up in symbiotic fashion.
The "internet" was useful from conception. It was created through purpose to connect remote locations and share information, and has only exploded in utility since then.

What has the crypto industry actually done other than replicate some basic currency transfers through a highly inefficient and unintuitive trade of virtual points? It's a great research concept but it had no purpose in its creation, and finding some utility to bolt on top has so far proven to be futile in practicality and feasibility.
A posture brace, my posture is pretty terrible at 33 and lifetime of being on a computer.
Why they are ignoring Erlang's and Go's much more saner approach with blocking lightweight processes/goroutines which just work?

It is not just better, closer to reality semantics (someone have to wait), but also better granularity (one connection/channel, one process), shorter, less confusing code.

My guess is that the choices were made on the basis on meme/popularity among ignorant coders (to attract more devs, to gain more momentum, etc) rather than tech per se.

To have a select and receive as a language constructs (with pattern matching, of course) and coroutines (basically, software interrupt handlers) is a much better approach for a system programming language, just by being close to a system.

Universal frameworks like tokyo or async/await is cancer and , it seems, does not suit a system language at all.
Coming from the investing world, I won’t say this is entirely true. If an ICO token is a genuine utility token, then it could have true value in the distributed network as far as I understand. If some company takes off where this utility token/security works, it could be a preferable form to a more common IPO/listed equity. I don’t think many companies fall under this domain, but for a few types of circumstances, the ICO model makes a lot of sense.
> The content quality has deteriorated significantly since the site's inception.

I just find it funny that you can say this about literally any site with any content whatsoever.

Heck, even Mad made this joke about itself... in its second issue.

This is very similar with what I tell people: that every time you put another zero on your net worth, your world changes.

The follow-up is that you probably shouldn't be taking life advice for your immediate situation from people who are more than one zero in either direction away from you because they're giving advice for their world, not yours.

my personal financial life goal is never to be worth more than $10M and I am knocking that go a lot of the park right now!

Life after $10M, from knowing people with that kind of money, just gets more and more complicated and no one seems truly happy, as they drown in first world problems.
To each his own. Suffice to say most devs find autocompletion very productive.

I grew up in NYC back when a normal family could live in Manhattan. I always wondered why they didn't suspend service between midnight and 5AM on weekdays for scheduled maintenance. Move half the maintenance people to midnight shift so avoid all the overtime they pay now.

Not mentioned in the article is that the NYC subway system is controlled by Albany, not NYC.
I wish you had phrased your answer better, but this is exactly what I thought of the OP's comment (and the vast majority of former power users' complaints, as someone that used to hang out there since the early days).
Sometimes the truth is hard to swallow.

EDIT: (as you can tell by the amount of downvotes both of my comments have already received). Hive-mind in effect.

No. Bitmain is selling the pickaxes. Coinbase is the tent where the gold miners take their nuggets to sell.
I think the internet exaggerates conflict and amplifies outrage. Usually it’s only a handful that start the problem or agitate. But then it becomes a social media buzz and a news network picks it up. a lot more more than a handful get repetitive broadcasts of terrible memes or crazy conspiracies on Facebook and talk radio.

I suppose it depends what you mean by handful, but when folks in my rural Northern Canadian area are quoting YouTube, Fox News, or Facebook conspiracies.... the reach is broad.

Jade Helm was going to lead to martial law imposed in Texas. During that period a poll showed 32% of republicans felt the government was trying to take over Texas.

In the US alone, I’d hazard a guess at least 50 million people thought Obama was a Kenyan Muslim socialist. Before you say “that’s crazy!” Remember that’s only 15% of the populace. 6% believed the moon landings were faked according to a Gallup poll in 1999.

The last election with that immigrant caravan is another example of exploiting people’s tendency to believe things uncritically.

In short, people believe what they want to believe, and it gets worse when propaganda is rampant.

I had a shoulder surgery last year. I definitely learned about constant pain and some tips for dealing with it (with and without drugs).

Some random observations:

Meditation can help. My pain was more connected with my emotional state than I expected (much worse when stressed and much better when distracted by an enjoyable experience). Pain and negative emotions reinforce each other. Narcotics often break the concentration that makes meditation reduce pain. Nevertheless sometimes you gotta load up on narcotics so you can attempt to get the sleep your body needs to heal.

In my case I went through about 40 percacet the first week. But took 5-6 weeks for the next 40, and then I was off the heavy stuff and stuck to ibuprofin.

My shoulder still hurts.

The user can't leave the malicious domain, but they also can't interact with the page, because the dialog is in the way. And even if they could, are they really more likely to trust the site after it's made a bunch of random popups appear in a row?
