Afraid, I'm still in the process of switching to LineageOS :-( I am first doing my homework by reading related forums, etc. On the current Android OS, I don't use much of GApps. All the applications I use are: Keep 'notes', Maps, Google Translator, Spotify, LifeReminders, Dutch–English dictionary, an OTP generator, SMS, WhatsApp, Signal, Firefox, and from time-to-time the camera; that's it. No native email apps, no "social media" (I don't even have any accounts) or such. And of course, everything and everyone is on mute, except one person; so no notifications.

From a recent IRC chat on #lineagos (on Freenode), folks there said I should be totally fine switching Nexus-5 to Lineage. I'm just being cautious before I pull the trigger.

I don't beleive this, but it's possible that SpaceX are selling launches at below cost to drive demand so that they can get up to a scale where they're economical and in order to establish a dynamic in the industry where known low cost launches enable new projects that will cause higher demand in the future.
The fact that you can't change the nameservers doesn't make them not a registrar. They absolutely are a registrar. Just one that doesn't let you change the nameservers.

But you know what? I'm okay with that. I honestly can't think of a scenario where I'd want to use any other nameservers.
If I buy a 100 dollar phone new each year I save 900 dollars and get 80% of the features of that 1000 dollar phone. Each year my new phone starts to get as good, or better than the phone I was getting 80% of a few years back.
This also works for cars.

I lot of the issues you mentioned really are meant to address problems faced by teams working on a project at scale. I really didn't understand the need for GraphQL until I was put on a project where we had multiple REST endpoints we needed to query data from, new people were joining every week, and communication + data requests across different teams required a significant portion of everyone's time.

The issues you mentioned are issues if you want one (or a few) framework or library to handle all of your web development needs, but rarely does one library work for web development at scale.
The list is mixing apples and oranges.

In psychology, laziness simply does not exists as a mental health issue or as a personality trait.

It's a vague and judgemental word used to describe a behavior while the real cause might be burnout, depression or many other.
The model makes sense within the limited domain of its assumptions.

I find it weird though that it uses an example of autos, because of the hypothetical presence of asymmetric information, which doesn’t seem to describe the real world well at all.

The quality of cars has risen dramatically and steadily over the years. There are multiple mechanisms which compensate for the difficulties a lay person has valuing a complex product.

In addition to government regulations, brand reputation is hugely important in motivating automakers to make reliable products.

The subject is of keen interest to buyers, who actively seek out information about potential quality of a new car purchase. In the pre-internet area it was harder, but sources of information like Consumer Reports were well used.

Since brand perception is expensive to build, and easy to lose, my anecdotal perception is that automakers try really hard to make great products. Especially because if the sell someone a lemon, the customer will be stuck with it for some time, increasing the opportunity for various types of reputation harming communication.

In the used car market the forces that drive quality are passed right through. While there is perhaps a higher chance of being stuck with a lemon, there are plenty of countervailing forces.

In anycase it struck me as odd that the example the paper used to show the intuition behind it was one that my perspective is almost the opposite of.

I guess the general principle I’m alluding it is that in markets that have a high potential for asymmetric information problems, the problems are obvious, and potential buyers will actively use strategies to compensate.

Salaries are almost twice as high. Those other countries also tend to have higher taxes and other salary deductions, so doctors earn less.

> Other countries have better health outcomes, so that pretty much kills your “worse service” claim.

No it doesn't. Not every US citizen actually receives the service, because they want to (or have to) save money, kicking the problem down the road, exacerbating the issue. Americans also tend to be more obese.

You call the "cancer survival" rate a cherry pick, but it's actually a good indicator how good the actual treatment is and how timely it is administered.

> Rob Delaney is a great example...

One guy's opinion isn't "evidence" either. I could give you individual health care horror stories from single payer countries, but that would be emotional manipulation.
Just as a side note, I wonder if this could be a better alternative to job interviews. An opportunity to have fun and interact with possible candidates.

Coincidentally just minutes ago I came out of a “parents learning session” at my synagogue about the Czech Torah scrolls, ehich I didn’t know about previously.

During he Holocaust, thousands of Czech scrolls taken from scattered synagogues, to a main synagogue in Prague. An old rumour, though now thought to be inaccurate, was that Hitler wanted to document the culture of the race he eliminated.

Many of these scrolls have deterioated, some have been restored, and they are now distributed on-loan to many Jewish communities around the world, not just as working Torah’s but as part of the living story of persecution and perseverance.
The note about Sweden seems a bit off. It is now January and we still don't have a government formed since the election in September. The politicians have all showed their worst sides in not getting along and the trust in them has plummeted. At the same time there are clear signs of a recession coming.

Things are as gloomy as a Bergman-movie in Sweden. Sort of.
If you assume 2.9 billion cycle per sec times 94 days divided by 12 trillion you get 2000 cycles per digit.
I have the same feeling, it seems overly complicated and I pity the developers that join the project at a later stage.

I don't understand the run for GraphQL everywhere, does everybody query sparse and deep nested data on their website? From my experience, Apollo works well except when it doesn't and then you have a lot of magic going on.

Zeplin works quite well for our team and creates a nice connection to our designers. Storybook on the other hand not so much. At first we developers used it, then we had to update some things for Apollo but Storybook was not ready for that. Now everything runs again but nobody uses Storybook actively anymore...

I have the feeling that the software industry is often driven by personal preference instead of sane decisions. I see projects that use micro services without any reason, using React for static content, dockerizing everything to a ridiculous amount, K8s because why not. All of that because it's interesting for the developer not because it's good for the user.
I'm an occasional sufferer of depression and I know a few people who suffer it to varying degrees. For me there are a set of symptoms which are always pretty much the same and nowadays I notice pretty quickly when it hits me. It can definitely be a driver of the other things you mention. It might be good to start there
Amazon is clearly not a lemon market (and by clearly I mean it's a textbook case). Amazon is a company that guarantees/warrants the products (buyers have effective recourse to return products). In the paper's model this prevents a lemon market.
That's total administrative cost. Given that (current) Medicare has high administrative costs as well, there's no reason to believe that the US will suddenly do much better with all its regulations.

Either way, whether it is 2% or 8% the bill will be astronomical. You would have to cut health care worker's salaries significantly to make a big dent in it. I'm not saying that shouldn't happen, but you better own up to it.

> By the 1920s, new models of gas and electric ovens gave cooks slightly more control over their hot boxes, but the dials still typically only offered low, medium, and high settings [...] Around the end of World War II, manufacturers started including temperatures on their dials, featuring hash marks indicating 10- or 25-degree increments.

This cookbook is from the 20s; we're talking about gas ranges, and the temp control was done by metered flow to the pilot. Low/medium/high settings from the manufacturer did offer consistency, and the gas mark settings on English ovens better specificity... but the state of the art in retail hasn't really advanced hugely over the past century. The thermostats in home ovens are terrible; variance of 50degF or more across time and volume is common. Hence the continued prevalence of mitigating techniques like water baths, covering in foil or parchment, rotating/shuffling baking sheets, etc.
> I've noticed a definite difference between programmers working on their own startups and those working for large organizations. I wouldn't say founders seem happier, necessarily; starting a startup can be very stressful. Maybe the best way to put it is to say that they're happier in the sense that your body is happier during a long run than sitting on a sofa eating doughnuts.

I this this is a good analogy but I don't draw the same conclusion Paul does. I trained for a marathon last summer, and it sucked. Long distance running and racing has been associated with diminished lifespans [0], organ damage [1], weakened immune system [2], and lowered sex drive [3]. This research isn't conclusive by any means, but it's a lot easier to explain if you believe in an upside-down U-shaped relationship between exercise and well-being than a monotonic relationship. (I personally found that my sweet spot was under 100 km/week, any more than that and I got sick and tired and felt beat-down.)

Same with being a CEO. It's great to be your own boss. It's generally hard on your body, soul, and relationships to work 100 hours a week. If your ambition is to have a 5k/month side project and live on that, that's probably good for your health. If it's to make and sell a billion dollar company, that's probably not.

That's not to say that _working_ at a startup isn't great. I just wouldn't want to start one. And unless you do, you're probably going to have a boss.

Show HN: Human Foods Dogs Can Eat (App)
App link: https://foodsdogscaneat.com/
PH profile: https://www.producthunt.com/posts/foods-dogs-can-eat

Hey HN,

I started learning to code and this is the first product I ever built.

PRODUCT

I’m a proud owner of two dogs and I want to make sure that I feed them with food that keep them healthy in the long-term.

When it comes to feeding our dogs human food, some typical questions arise: What kind of human foods can dogs eat? What foods are dangerous for dogs?

So I thought how cool would it be an app that tells you exactly that by simply typing in the food’s name.

I also wrote a long guide answering the most frequently asked questions regarding feeding dogs with human food.

The app checks mostly basic foods and the most popular human foods, not complex, prepared meals. :)

I’m so excited to share this early version with you guys, let me know what you think so I can make a better new version.

Gaya train station was far and away the most intense experience I had in the 2 months I spent traveling through the north. Well, breaking my hip falling off a scooter trying to avoid a massive black bull cow running at me in Rishikesh was the most intense experience of my existence to-date, but the Gaya station was seriously hard core on the normal traveler's experience level.

On the return from Bodh Gaya the midnight train to Varanasi was delayed...by 5 hours. Being the only foreigner I was concerned for my safety, but then realized the safest place was down on the ground with everyone else, and definitely not wandering outside the station.

I think (1) is the wrong question to ask, because none of these tools are suitable for usage in a production deployment, so you will only find those bugs with them that can be triggered with your test suite, which is necessarily incomplete.

A better question is, is this new tool intended to be used in production deployments, and what, if any, new attack surface does it introduce?

I had the same issues until I found a doctor who also has a type 1 diabetes. After I started going to her practice, my A1c dropped from 7.5 to 5.5-6.1 and I learned so much about keeping a good control.

The one I was seeing before her once started yelling at me for having such a bad control, so I seriously started looking for a better practice.
FWIW, I regularly use Airbnb for my travelling lodging needs. I usually find what I'm looking for (an apartment with washer, WiFi and many good reviews in the lower price-bracket).

But I always open the site with some apprehension, since I know I'm in for a bad user experience. It's sluggish, and I can't bring myself to appreciate how the layout and even menus differ (or even disappear) depending on which area on the site I visit. It makes navigation cumbersome, and hard to remember how to navigate between visits.

I would switch to a similar service in a jiffy if it had solved these problems.

I always suspected a lack of a top-down coordination to be the reason for these issues, thanks for confirming. I've come to believe that this kind of loose federation strategy mostly suits junior devs (on which a startup might be deeply dependent by all means), hardly a serious long haul business. I expect they will change policy in due course, or perish.
News from CES 2019 – TechEngage
I'm not saying that we're, by any means, qualified to self diagnose. The problem with your analogy is there are physical attributes/tests that tell doctors what is wrong when dealing with physiological problems. Even when the methods rely on us telling the doctors, it's usually a binary choice. On the other hand, it gets a lot more subjective when it comes to mental health.
I used to work for a mobile phone wholesaler that also owned a phone repair business and they noticed this trend as far back as 2013. The age of phones coming in for repair was rising year on year. They were coming under pressure from manufacturers and retailers to disincentivise customers from repairing older phones. One manufacturer even threatened to stop paying for in-warranty repairs if the company offered an out-of-warranty repair service.

The problem is that smartphones are way too expensive. Back in the old days of dumb phones a top end SIM free phone would cost no more than €400. Most people would opt for a cheaper model that allowed for a 12 months subsidy with the phone being free and monthly fees being fairly low by todays standards. In the UK it was common to find deals where you got a cheap phone for free, plus a game console or TV on a 12 month contract.

Now it has flipped. Top end phones are now nudging €1000, this means higher monthly fees plus 24-36 month contracts. That's a hell of a commitment, especially considering smart phones aren't as durable as dumb phones were. Of course people are repairing phones when they cost that much.

Plus, there is less of a feature incentive to upgrade. All I use my phone for is web browsing, email, social stuff and photo/video - it's three years old and does all that with no lag. New models don't offer me enough of an incentive to upgrade.

If manufacturers want people to upgrade more often they need to work on curbing the price of top end models. The more expensive they are, the longer people are going to want them to last. Also, a bit more innovation would be nice - must every smartphone follow the exact same black rectangle design template?
> There’s no way you can look at the social credit shit they have going on and say “uh yeah everything looks fine!”

Social credit is more than just a tool for oppression. (There's also more than one possible implementation currently in trial, but that applies to all of them.) Because the vast majority of Chinese citizens are not anti-government activists, any such survey will be dominated by those who can finally get a line of credit for their small business. Even a million Uyghurs in internment camps don't make a dent when you're just looking at average satisfaction.

You seem to be in a bad place, I hope you don't get stuck there. I know how hard change can be, there's nothing easy about it, and personally - I wouldn't have been able to even get started alone.

Maybe you have already tried it, but if you have the means, see if you can find a psychologist, or essentially any professional you feel is interested in listening, and be prepared to at least consider their words.

An bad environment can corrupt both how the world looks and how we see ourselves, that's why it's so important to get someone who can help you/us see again.

I any case, whenever you do throw off the tiniest part of what is keeping you down. Give yourself credit for it, and celebrate as a madman. Preferably as a respectful and kind madman, but give yourself credit.
Ulysses Pact
I completely agree with this. After reading some of the examples in the list (E-Sports vs. Traditional Sports, Hybrid Cars vs Electric Cars), it was clear the concept was not fully baked. This one needs to go back in the oven for a bit.

In the case of hybrids vs. electrics, it's fine if you want to say hybrids are like the Blackberry - an initiating technology that prepares the market for a sweeping, fundamental change. But that's certainly different from Augmented Reality and Virtual Reality, two technologies that aim to accomplish different things, or streaming music vs MP3 downloads, which offer two different value propositions in the lease vs. own models.

The idea needs to be more specific, like initiating technology vs. mature technology or evolutionary technology vs. revolutionary technology. One could say the Blackberry or the Palm Pilot was actually the revolution, where the iPhone was the right evolution of that technology to fully capture the market. But now I'm just trying to backfit a backfitted concept.

- Burnout is happing when things you're most fighting your self take to much on your plate get frustrated and not able to get release. Continuous inner battles and frustration not being able to do things. No able to set barriers in a work environment. Normally people can recover from this over time.
- Depression is the state where u end up where nothing brings you joy art all. Depression is the state when you end up if you're not able to bounce back or come out the other end of a misery or something bad that happend in your life.
- Laziness is just not being able to do something. but can be a result of things above.
- being in the wrong job. not a problem if you have a mechanism to change the job, if you don't have a mechanism, above things can happen by a lot of frustration.
Not surprising at all. The same happened to PCs and laptops. At some point its good enough, only gamers need the latest Intel processor or nvidia GPU. So people stopped buying new computers until the old one broke.

It's trending the other way.

We're left depending on the few people who have the time/energy/money to produce labors of love and charities like this. Beyond that, we're left with centralized superplatforms.
The person said they asked, and the service provided clues anyway. That’s what caused the comment to tying payment with actually providing the right service.

So “you can just” clearly isn’t true, at least in that case.

Also, the premise that a customer not wanting clues to a puzzle is unreasonable, or anything like conditioning on a pre-recorded movie, is a pretty questionable — to the point I think it’s just wrong.

Having a puzzle proactively spoiled by staff is nothing like that, at all. Refusing to pay if staff ruin the experience by taking actions you ask them not to is actually standard in service industries.
