Next time, on Nextdoor...

I was across town trying to get back to the highway, when I get confused in this residential neighborhood and end up on a dead end street. (Why so many dead ends?) As I get ready to turn back onto Pine, I notice this guy run out and hop in his car and start tailgating me. No way am I going home now, with this weirdo following me and probably wanting to steal my stuff. So I hit the gas, and duck down some side street hoping it’s not another dead end, but he stays on me. Luckily, I got a picture of him from the side mirror. If anyone sees this car CALL THE POLICE!

Ask HN: How do you keep up with current events?
I am quite interested to know how do you keep up to date and keep an overview over current events?

I've always been 'out of touch' with current events, but never found a way to keep up which doesn't completely dawn on me or takes up way too much time.
All the evidence for claims is from single studies.

I'm sure all of those will replicate.

Just like ego depletion and smiling in the mirror.
There are zoning issues that prevent the market from buildings an adequate amount of housing to keep up with demand. You can't just go turn a single family home in Palo Alto into a small apartment complex.

There is not an equivalent quota or limit on the number of employees who can work as waiters.

I've seen similar discussions about Stack Overflow as well. At one time people really welcomed comments being posted on there but some people have since become a little jaded due to how strictly moderated that site is. While it keeps the place in order, it does also mean anyone who might disagree with a moderators decision - even when they have genuinely thoughtful content to post - is left out from the community.

One day people might say something equivalent about HN. So your points are valid about HN if just at a theoretical level.
Not built-in, but you can install extensions that cover your needs. Here are the VS Code extensions that have something to do with Django https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/search?term=django&targ...

Unfortunately, you'll have to test them for yourself since I don't have a use for them.
I own a foodservice business and it tends to be a mixture of both. You're not going to be able to run an establishment without at least some business acumen, but everyone who's ever worked in the industry is fully aware that the pay is complete shit in terms of effort expended. So, as a result, owners pretty much have to be very passionate about the industry in order to even contemplate opening their own place to begin with - and this is here in the Midwest, God help anyone who wants to open something in a major coastal city.
AI to stop Technical Debt
Unless you cut out floating point and superscalar, it requires a fairly large FPGA, on the order of >$1000. So you'd have to put it to serious use to break even with using AWS.

The other advantage of AWS is scale-out once you want to get benchmark data and not wait forever (or to simulate warehouse scale computers). In the past, maintaining our own FPGA cluster was a nightmare.
There is coal mine fire in India burning since more than 100 years.
Perhaps it should instead increase as the average lifespan increases.
I think folks are overthinking this.

The math itself doesn't matter. Have you seen recent Robinhood commercials popping up on TV? Their whole business is to encourage folks that should not be day trading to day trade.

Having your money parked there just facilitates knee-jerk-reaction and follow-the-crowd trading.
This is the real deal! Highly recommend!
The financial crisis was not a result of bad mathematics. Investments are made because they promise to return dividends. But there is always a chance that they might return lower than expected dividends, or none at all. This can be because the market didn't grow as expected, wages rose above expectations, a tsunami wiped out your factory or an array of other factors completely beyond your control. The best mathematicians in the world cannot predict how many coca cola bottles will be sold in a year.

So are you saying they changed their story to fit a false narrative? If so why would they do that?

Also, if you are saying it was a rogue operation, executed by Saudis, wouldn’t the Saudis still hold some responsibility?

If say, US special forces or the CIA killed a journalist critical of the US against the intent of the commander in chief, someone still is going to have hell to pay.

Rent, other than the amenities of the dwelling itself, affords access to a location, which is likely far more valuable in the minds of those making the decision than dining out.

In addition to the issues with high cost of living that affect other big cities like New York and DC, the restaurant market in the wider Bay is somewhat distorted due to so many firms of high earners offering food on site. This shifts sit-down restaurants further towards the discretionary, incidental end of spending and away from daily needs.

Lunch hours typically have a lower proportion of high-income customers than dinner hours, but this decreases their share further. A common solution is to raise dinner prices to be a higher multiplier above lunch prices, but that only makes sense if the pricing won't drive away business to competitors. For most of these restaurants, attrition and consolidation will continue to happen, while a few will try to move further and further upmarket and focus on branding and an intangible experience, to remove themselves from pricing pressure.
> the eventual end game at this rate is for establishments that are extremely expensive and able to actually pay their workers decently

That's not the end game, because there is an endless supply of low paid labour willing to commute hours to work. Especially if the tips are better.

The places will be expensive, no doubt, but labour will capture a very small proportion of the hike, with the rest going to capital like brand and real estate owners.

The tech elite seems willing to cling to these sorts of market-mediated fair world falacies, because they refuse to acknowledge their own position in the capitalist society.
Exactly; the furnace is where you'd expect it to break out, so it won't. Somebody didn't write their integration tests for the coal storage though.
You can similarly get MATE really close to the classic windows UI using the Redmond theme.
My parents thought it was quite odd that I named it the Berkeley Out of Order Machine. "Why would you advertise to the world that it doesn't work?"
Since KDE, GNOME, and FSF foundations recently got a significant contribution this year, I wonder why they wouldn't join forces and hire a couple full-time developers to make poppler and all poppler-based PDF viewers (Evince, Okular, etc) actually useful for PDF Forms, animated and interactive content.
And yet many from this area are the first to criticize others for inequality and a lack of empathy.
I don't understand why anybody would ever post anything to Medium, as there is a monthly article limit. If you want people to read your work, why would you post to a site where how much the audience reads _other people_ affects their access to yours? It makes no sense.
That's not surprising. Amazon is actively working to create a dystopia, and this would be a logical next step.
I suspect that it's cultural and derives from our economic relationship to animals. I remember seeing a film as a child that depicted a native hunter killing a deer and profusely thanking the spirit of the deer; attributing intelligence and identity to the deer would predispose a hunter to pay close attention to the animal's behaviour and give him an edge in hunting it. In cultures with domestcated animals bred for compliance with human will, it is less advantageous to view the animal as another mind. Instead, we see them as tools to be used and discarded. To do otherwise would compromise our ability to extract maximum economic advantage from use of the animal.
Yup, reading from disk will trigger a context switch from the OS, whether it happens explicitly or via a page fault involving virtual memory. (The closest parallel to that at the hardware level would be SMT.) As an aside, another rationale - perhaps a more paradigmatic one - for OOO involves achieving full use of super-scalar execution units on a processor core, when instructions have complex dependencies on one another.
As far as everything on the internet tells me, GDPR was made for exactly this reason, to prevent this kind of data collecting without the users consent. But what is happening instead is that small companies, starrups, etc. are getting fucked over by the sheer amount of "rules" they have to follow and implement while large companies can get away with collecting everything and anything, leaking personal user data all over the place, etc.

Conclusion: GDPR was made to help monopolies grow even larger and prevent smaller companies/start-ups from ever growing more than just a little bit. Change my mind?
Tesco's 3% is ongoing, it is limited to £1500 though, I've had one for 5? Years. Was only guaranteed for 12 months, and guaranteed it again when they had their security breach a few years back.

They have limited account opening at various times though.
That would be an argument for taxing the pollutants too.

(Yes, it's not a perfect policy, but please don't criticize it with an argument equivalent to saying that a unit of pollution is infinitely bad. It's not.)

Well, the urea tank may be critical for ecology, but it surely isn't critical for the fleet's owner!
When I stop cold turkey I sleep a lot for a couple of weeks (10-13 hours per day), which is really useful when I'm stressed and cannot sleep. After the two weeks I behave normally again, but I never have the thought clarity that coffee gives me, so I end up going back and starting the cycle again.
> Businesses can always raise prices to cover higher costs. If they can’t, they’re not viable in the first place.

Interesting that 'individuals can always ask for a raise to cover higher costs; if they can't, they're not viable in the first place' might be true, but it sure sounds heartless.
There are federated platforms that let you do this - or at least a lot closer to that kind of reality than a forum / HN style site does.

You do make an interesting distinction though. My counterargument would be "Ask HN" style topics where the entire content is hosted on HN - however I don't disagree with the point you're making either.
Sure, as long as it’s set aside for the specific categories of workers they want.
Yeah when I started looking at one of my local credit unions I almost jumped at the 10% interest rate before I realized it was only 10% on the first $1k then less than 1% on everything after that
Why? Why would you build a piece of software for free for a near-trillion dollar company? If Apple wanted Apple Music on Linux, they could absolutely build something themselves. But they haven't and they won't, they don't want Linux users as customers. They especially don't want Linux users calling up and wondering why XYZ feature of Apple Music isn't working on their machine.

I totally get if this was built as a demo or for a portfolio, but I would not want to be caught holding this hot potato when the music stops.
It doesn't solve the overall problem, but it can solve this particular one; if they pay enough, waiters will be able to displace some existing renters and/or be willing to travel from even further away.
That still doesn't address my point. If these are not rules of English, then what are these (style) rules based on? What is the justification for not using however at the beginning of a non-dependent clause ('sentence')? If it's not actual rules of English grammar and also not what writers that are generally recognised as 'good' writers do, then what value could it have?
On a side note, were you as a European* stunned and horrified to see the featureless concrete urban sprawl that "Silicon Valley" actually was when you came for the first time?

Attitudes like the one expressed in the comment you're replying to is exactly why STEM majors should have a required humanities/liberal arts component.
Medium became popular years ago because it allows authors to have an inbuilt audience (via their recommended feed) and a writing interface that's aesthetically pleasing.

In the years since, both advantages have weakened a bit as competitors now have similar features.

The monthly article limit only applies to authors who opt into the Member program to get revenue, which Medium has been pushing since previous monetizations attempts failed.
It's because high-end hotels have lots of business travelers who don't care what anything costs because they'll just expense it to their work.
"After all, a good old security guard also does 'face recognition' of everyone passing by"

Yes, but the essential difference is that the good old security guard isn't photographing everyone passing by and putting those pictures into a database.
But it's a thought provoking question because the impact to society is.

Checking accounts are loss leaders for most banks, even with low interest rates.

And big brokerages have offered this type of account for decades. It's usually called a "cash management account" and works just like a checking account--takes direct deposit, provides checks and an ATM card, etc.

Robinhood's innovation might simply be in calling it a "checking account" so the interest rate looks huge (it's actually small compared to expected investing returns) and marketing it to young people who are suspicious of big financial companies.
"Robinhood" steals from its users to gives to its investors:

I've read about this fire before and on the surface it seems crazy to think we have all of these underground fires happening that no one really thinks or cares about. I understand how we got to where we are but it still makes me stop in amazement that this is a thing that is actively happening.
You've probably seen Toward Data Science around a lot if you're in that field, which is based off of the Medium platform.

I was mostly just shifting my online forum posting onto my own platforms.

It’s not hard to find people that make thousands upon thousands of posts on forums. They’re making a killing: for other people.

For the most part, I would bash companies that overcharge and recommend cheaper alternatives.

Hence why I didn’t bother with anything more than Adsense. I was basically toxic, but it was popular and refreshing.
There are vast differences between rich and poor areas in most US metros. Usually they are separated by some freeway driving. San Francisco is rare in that the middle class and higher spend enough time in/near the center to notice its conditions.
SVGjs 3.0 Advent Calendar – Day 13
Supposedly NASA was aware of the tile damage to Columbia before re-entry in 2003, but purposefully didn't tell the astronauts because they believed there was indeed no way to fix it; the Shuttle's TPS tiles are right on the bleeding edge of being capable of protecting the craft, just barely thick enough to do their job (thin to save weight) and completely unable to resist impacts. Supposedly the philosophy was such that NASA management would rather the astronauts be completely oblivious to the impending failure during re-entry, carry out a successful mission, and thus experience only a short period of pure horror during re-entry, as opposed to informing them there was nothing to be done and that re-entry would kill them.

I have never understood NASA management. It's been responsible for both Shuttle disasters (pushing Challenger to launch despite unsuitable weather). NASA demonstrated what I think is humanity's finest engineering-your-way-out-of-a-problem with Apollo 13, which couldn't benefit from satellite imaging, robot arms or other inventions since, but they seem pretty complacent after that.

Yes, the order restriction buys a lot of things rather cheaply.

Actually Denver doesn’t lose anything. The loss isn’t even theoretical. It’s like saying I lost billions on Apple stock I didn’t buy. That just makes no sense. You could also, using your theoretical logic, say that Berlin lost money too. Or Marseille. Or Dubai.

Apple could have built new facilities literally anywhere they wanted. So should the international government pass a law against the US having lower taxes than France? The only people that should have a say in the tax rate of a place are the people paying the tax rate of a place.

Denver never had it in the first place. Money not earned isn’t the same as an actual cost. The people of Denver are in exactly the same shoes they were yesterday; they aren’t worse off.

And why should the federal government tell individual cities how they should tax? I’m afraid you don’t understand what federalism is, nor freedom for that matter. If a hypothetical Austin wants to give Bezos the key to the city what business is it to the people of Boise? Boise didn’t lose anything.

I notice that a lot. My accountant was way too cheap in my opinion, and I told him that. After years, he finally raised his prices recently, and I thanked him for it. He needs to eat too. Same for the guy who remodeled our house. He has no time for all the work he's got, but he doesn't want to raise his prices, despite working for half the rate I work for.

Don't be afraid to charge what you're worth and what your customers can afford.

Yep. People are still scared of computers or see them as appliances. They never had a chance.
I kind of get your point - if his view is different only because he hasn’t seen the tape that is interesting. This suggests the tape is the only evidence of wrongdoing? I thought there was sigint showing calls being made to and from the embassy from MBS, and other corroborating evidence, and the tape was meant to be the smoking gun. Maybe I’m just brainwashed. I think my take is something horrific happened and someone should be answering for it, we rarely have a smoking gun and still need to make decisions based on the information we have, it’s odd to me that this thread kind of is telling me, or I’m way misinterpreting things (possibly!), that the tape’s existence brings everything we know into doubt because it could be faked and we should pretend nothing happened, or just let the Saudis tend their own house, ignoring our shared economic and military ties.
I don't know of any that offer 4% on all money, but one near me offers 3% on the first $3k. After $3k though, you might as well get a CD or invest it in something higher return than a checking account.
