I don't have any problem with this. It highlights a lack of user education, if they expect their typed input to a website to be private.

It reminds me of the "talk" (and ytalk, ntalk) programs, where all parties can see in real-time what the others are typing. It's a cool technology that, unfortunately, is not used on the web.
It's just a cost of living thing. One calculator says,

> A salary of $185,000 in Boise, Idaho should increase to $450,797 in San Jose, California

https://www.bestplaces.net/cost-of-living/boise-id/san-jose-...

Total comp in the $200-300k range is common for seniors at tech companies in SV. But people tend to not understand exactly what that amount of money means here because it seems like so much money. It doesn't mean people in, say, Boise are underpaid or whatever, just that everything is way, way more expensive in the Bay Area.
Yep. That's what my parents did with us. "Just be home for dinner." We'd eat dinner and then run back outside for another 3-4 hours of "night games" in the cul-de-sac. Maybe on Tuesday nights we'd come in for the Cosby Show or something. But that was rare. :-)
An awesome service for helping people navigate bankruptcy! congrats on a great idea. clearing debt is an important function of capital markets and is one thing that makes the US economic system so robust.

congrats and:

1. I hope you guys find some good revenue streams to keep it going.

2. I hope you can prevent people from scamming the system and hiding assets, etc. Otherwise you can be the farmer that killed the golden egg laying goose.
Additionally, it might even make sense to have the power plug only be USB-2.0, if it's cheap. No reason to have a thunderbolt 3.0 cable plugged into the wall all the time
I remember these emails while in the Defense Industry. Sprinkled through the email would be choice words in all caps, and bolded, and in Italics, likely in red, maybe highlighted in some other color as well.

Such attempts at "letting others know you're serious about security" seemed more for CYA oversight purposes for the company's security department, but at least 100s of people got reeducated-by-email about proper door security during or after a fire drill.

What are you doing with your glasses? Use a microfibre cloth to clean them and there is no reason that they get scratched, and especially not every couple of years. I've had mine for 8 years and the only reason I've recently changed them is to get a different frame. Also, glass is really heavy, especially if you have to have them with a significant diopter, and it also prone to breaking if dropped onto a hard surface.
Here in Germany you can still get regular glass if you so desire, so maybe it's just Israel.
That is what the phrase “monopoly on violence” means.

Actually that's not what it means.

And there's no evidence that decentralized agencies of force (where these can be stable for any length of time) are any likely to devolve into abuse.
Just echoing this, (Canada) my optometrist caught my glaucoma early using that machine that shoots a burst of air at your eye. He referred me to an opthalmologist who said there isn't any damage yet but gave me a prescription for some eye drops that reduce eye pressure. I'm only 27 and don't have any other medical issues, so it was a but of a surprise
Yes, generally when you go to jail you should expect to be separated from your children. That's how jails work. Children, by definition, don't go to jail. So unless you're suggesting sending people back without a court hearing (which as of today would be illegal), or jailing the children along with parents, or releasing them into the US, I see a dearth of available options.
Not a bad idea but travis only does a shallow clone, do you unshallow it? Doing a `git fetch --unshallow` was slow, and hanging forever about one time out of 5 when I tried a few weeks back
I sometimes assume this is true and use it to my advantage by typing up a scathing rebuke venting frustration, only to delete and type a respectful query. I don't know for sure, but sometimes I get goodies in the form of gift cards and such and I don't know if this is an effort to placate me or not.
I also stopped sending it back in because every touchpad seemed to have the same scrolling issues. Then I tried installing Linux to see if the issues would be the same, and since then the trackpad has been working great. It's the reason I use Linux these days.
My point is, if that's true then great - implement higher tax brackets. But you should understand the effects of a drastic change before implementing it. That would ideally involve researching the economic and societal effects that are attributable to tax increases, because simply noting that eras with higher taxes tended to be better isn't a strong case.

That's to say nothing of the huge budget the US already has. I mean, there's no reason why you can't both increase taxes and streamline the existing government (e.g. defense for a start) in order to drum up funds for a healthcare system.
I like that a lot. It is creepy, imho.

I'm surprised no one has mentioned FusionAuth (https://fusionauth.io). It's free, has a Python library, and the features that most apps need. There are a couple of people using Python with FusionAuth right now.

The community for FusionAuth is growing quickly and it has an open issue tracker (https://github.com/FusionAuth/fusionauth-issues), good docs (https://fusionauth.io/docs/v1/tech/), and many open source projects as well (https://github.com/FusionAuth).

I'm one of the developers of FusionAuth, so you should give it a try and lot us know what you think.
Fair enough - I just like to understand where people are coming from on this issue.
First there's that pesky problem of finding a shitton of power to play around with
Looks like a raminit problem. In the bios, there is often a module to do that. Your [1] comment raise the possibility that some mixup happened. I would suggest trying some "re released" version, ideally the same one as you had initially.
> a bus turned upside down is perceived as a plowshare

If I'm thinking of the same picture you are, it's a schoolbus on its side on a snowy road that is misidentified as a snowplow.

FWIW, that picture does look a lot like a snowplow to my eye. Big yellow rectangle against road cleared of snow? If I glanced at it, I might have said it's a snowplow.

Long time employees are naturally severe underpaid - i think it is across the nation.
I live in ex-USSR in one of the poorest republics. My mom bought recently nice eyeglasses for $3.50. The procedure is this: you name the type of lenses (+2 + 3 etc) and they give a bunch of eyglasses with different ocular differences. You chose one that works for you and then choose the frame.
Depending where you're based, there are some very good partners that can help here. It really depends on what level of cooperation you're looking for from "here, you do it" to "just give us guidance along the way".

Bbox – Python library for working with bounding boxes
Auth0 do the same thing though. They make library abstractions such as "passwordless" and make it a separate authentication flow altogether, where as in reality it is just a matter of generating temporary passwords. There is no need to not be able to just enable and disable temporary passwords for any user.

Also, try implementing generation of API-key like tokens for users that can be expired, revoked, authorized etc.

Auth0 have made products that hide complexity, in my opinion, but if those products fit your particular need, sure it works great.
I do, but at least it is feasible (at least I think, never actually needed to do it). With Travis, even being willing to hack around, I just didn't manage to get it working at all
NFC Forum Podcast: The Benefits of Being a Member
Is the Live Coding Workshop on Friday limited to women and non-binary people? I think I would be interested in playing around with Supercollider, but from my reading of the description on the site, it seems that male identifying people are not invited.

"This workshop ticket gives you access to a 2 hour creative coding workshop on Supercollider for women and non-binary people." From here: https://www.tickettailor.com/events/grayarea/226591
Coupled with the very simplistic and predictable passwords often encountered in passworded (avoiding the word "encrypted") ZIPs, I often have the impression that the intention is more to add an explicit human step to open the ZIP. So, making it (less) accessible to crawlers, or give a non-malicious recipient a moment to think whether they want/need/should extract this.

Often the password comes in the same mail or website, after all.
Why does that make the glasses so expensive though? The frames from my glasses were about 100 EUR and the glasses were a lot more expensive. If I ask my parents or other people, they are paying 1000 EUR or more for the glasses by themselves (not the frames). I'm about to get new glasses next month because my current glasses are 6 years old now, I'm looking forward to some new glasses.

I had a $6000 pair of hearing aids that were lost. I replaced them with $1600 pair from Costco. Most of the time I can’t tell the difference. When I can, I wouldn’t be able to say which is better, just that I notice they didn’t sound the same.
Helicopter parenting requires one to sacrifice a lot. It is not lack of sacrifice that leads to it. A lot of it is people unable to tell no to further personal sacrifice (whether for subjective or objective reasons).
and it can play 1080p video in real-time

I'm skeptical of this claim given my X220 (Sandy Bridge) has trouble decoding 1080p with any medium/high quality playback options. Enabling debanding algorithms, for example, which is default in mpv, causes dropped frames with high-bitrate 1080p x264 both software and hardware decoding, and dropped frames in general decoding 1080p HEVC (software only, iGPU doesn't support HEVC).
I agree, of course computers extend and amplify our prejudices.

But as the article states in it's conclusion:

>Just because something is expressed in numbers doesn’t make it right

Many statistical social differences are often automatically attributed to discrimination based solely on "numbers".
A lot of things, my experience is based on working in startups:
1. Suggesting silly changes in CR - instead of A you could have used B. So what? I used A, let's keep it that way, time is money.
2. Long discussions in CR
3. Too much thinking like a programmer. I'm not coding, because I love it(although I like it), I'm coding, because business needs it...
4. Asking for estimates, when we both know that estimates in this situation are impossible to predict.
5. Shitty written tickets. I don't know the app well enough yet, so one sentence tickets won't help me much.
6. Too much obsession over some technology. Everything has some good and bad sides, so stop selling it, especially when no one is paying you to do that.
7. Also, I dislike when you can't get a simple answer to your question, but you get funny looks that you don't know the answer yet.
I agree with you but we were talking about Dart vs Typescript. ES6 is fine if you’re sketching something and wanting a flexible (i.e. subject to change) view of something, if you have a clear/certain design there are far better systems than building the most complicated type system that both the OP and the GP can’t tell are truly type safe? Why on earth would you choose to build your type safe system in something this broken? If you don’t understand why the other systems are better that’s fine but I think try doing Golang, then Lisp, then Haskell, then maybe Elm or even Dart you’ll see that Typescript is just a lie that causes huge amounts of extra work on top of your usual work. Just my opinion but the effort/reward/beauty ratio is all wrong in TS.

Productivity is one of those things that I think should be motivated with reward for increasing it instead of punishment for decreasing it. I love the nice feeling I get when I use my own custom window manager to shave another 3 seconds off a thing I commonly do. It's an amazing feeling, it makes me feel like Tony Stark, building my own personalized JARVIS, a program that automatically does exactly what I would have done manually. That's a big part of why I built my window manager and why I want to share it with people, because I want them to feel that same excitement and joy of directly improving your own quality of life, even in a tiny but very real way. I would open source it and give it away for free if I could do that and still keep the lights on.

Can someone please help me understand why anyone outside of a small circle of curious science buffs should care about particle physics?

It seems the field has advanced so far that EVEN IF new discoveries emerge, they would be of no practical value.

I'm not saying it's not interesting (I like reading about it FWIW), and I'm not saying it will never ever prove useful. But from resource allocation perspective, tens of billions of dollars required for high energy experiments seem to be much better spent on other areas of physics. That is, until the civilization advances far enough that understanding the depths of particle physics or cosmology becomes relevant.

State coercion is an abuse on individual liberty, plain and simple. It’s just that the State has legitimacy and the monopoly on violence. So it will not be construed as abuse as such. We all collectively give up some rights for collective safety. The real check on the monopoly of violence is the 2nd amendment. That’s the only reason that LE is not totally out of control in the US.
Incredible release. Love that it's framework agnostic and standardized/futureproof with components/api.

Gratz to the team!
I've had this setup for a couple of years. Back when I started out on it, with a Dell XPS 15 (9550) and Dell docks, reliability was pretty iffy; unusable for their TB dock and kind of flaky for their USB-C dock. The latter is the only one that has proven in the long run to be a decent implementation; when I switched to a Thinkpad (P52s) a year ago the USB-C dock ended up working just fine, and the TB dock was recalled and replaced and now is just flaky.

I'd either go with a hardware combination that you or a trusted reviewer has tested, or wait another year or so for the bugs to get worked out.

EDIT: Or just avoid Dell, they seem to be behind the curve on figuring out Thunderbolt 3.
> Authentication is just too important to completely outsource without recourse

I agree 100%. You need to own your users and all of their data. Along those same lines, I wouldn't want my user data going into a multi-tenant, cloud-hosted solution like Okta. I'd much prefer to store everything on my own servers or use an on-premise solution like FusionAuth or KeyCloak.
If a company wants you they will pay you market rates, you may need to present them with competing offers if you don't want to be lowballed.
Yes, USB 3.X type A has additional pins, all the “blue“ type-a ports can support USB 3.0 and 3.1 gen 1/2 depending on the controller powering them.

USB-C adds additional pins for alt-mode as well as a higher power delivery allowance, but the USB data protocol part of it is the same as any other type of port of the same spec.
With globalism, your kids are now competing at a global level. And when you are competing with kids from 3rd world countries that are spending all their free time learning and studying, many of which are immigrating to the U.S. and entering the U.S. job market, there is no time for "play" if you want to make sure you have the competitive edge needed to land a decent job.
What an amazing opportunity for trolling support staff :)
> I don't know of any optical illusions where a bus turned upside down is perceived as a plowshare, or an image of an elephant superimposed on the image of a room causes the other objects in the room to be misidentified.

I wouldn't be so sure about that actually. Observing my daughters, I'm sometimes extremely surprised about how they identify objects. As you grow, your concious mind probably simply does not notice the continuous cross-validation happening.

Also, at the severe augmentation levels of years of ~50 fps "live video" training data, I can imagine there's another compensation algorithm at work in humans that tries to logically orient any picture into a most common, "upright" fashion before even trying to identify anything.
Great. Can they also read what I wrote and submitted before I reached #1 in the queue? So they don’t waste my time asking for my name, how am I, what I want, etc. I already outlined it all in the message!
> In 1999, when the agency was known as the National Imagery and Mapping Agency, it provided a map and satellite imagery analysis to the U.S. military that was used when NATO mistakenly bombed the Chinese embassy in Belgrade; agency analysts reportedly failed to recognize the building as an embassy.

That's a nice story they like to tell, but an alternative and compelling reading of the events is that it was an intentional act. It was undertaken because important components of a F-117 stealth fighter that had crashed days before were known to be in the embassy at that time and the US was trying to prevent them from making it back to China intact.
The article portrays the issue "whether or not ML models can be racially biased" as inherently conservative based on a sample of 1. This isn't even a very interesting question to the HN community, since we largely know that this is a resolved issue; the more interesting conversation would be about what we should do about it (as opposed to whether or not a particular tribe was wrong about an issue, which is what the article was designed to incite, by all appearances).
I think Masters and PhDs are basically in a totally different market than workers with bachelors', Associates', "boot camp" certificates, or no degrees at all. They are being hired for "alpha hacker" positions implementing compilers, databases, graphics engines, etc. while everyone else is building apps, REST APIs, doing enterprise integrations, etc.
> "I do believe it will go to zero. I think it's a great technology but I don't believe it's a currency. It's not based on anything," Jeff Schumacher, founder of BCG Digital Ventures, said during a CNBC-hosted panel in Davos, Switzerland.

I can't believe we are still arguing these incredibly rudimentary points. Let alone that these quotes still get press coverage. Really, you're talking about cryptocurrency on a panel at Davos and you still haven't taken the time to reflect upon the nature of money?

What does "It's not based on anything" even mean? What is a dollar "based on"?
I use this to send messages to the agent that won't be recorded in the transcript because I delete it after typing it. Not sure if it has gotten me better results from the agents but it's fun to do.

This. The prices are unbelievable! And $3000 is for the "cheap" ones! I was about to post the same thing and then found your post.

I will add, that getting access to the frequency curve adjustment software for each device is difficult (everybody needs a different adjustment curve and other params tweaked), prohibited and also expensive. They are often set incorrectly in the first instance and require repeat visits to an audiologist and tweaking.

So much so that I've been considering at all sorts of dodgy routes to getting control of this myself, including reverse engineering and ordering device-coupling hardware from shady non-western web sites, so that I can program them myself.

I'm really really hoping that this market will be disrupted soon, but I'm not holding my breath.
Would this also affect Brave? From what I understand they pack their blocker into the binary, but they might still call this API under the hood.

Yes. I used to see equipment -- hard drives, video cards, motherboards -- burn out at least once a year, and then I installed a power conditioner on my hardware. That was 4 years ago. Last year, for the first time in 17 years, I upgraded my motherboard by choice rather than replacing it after a failure.
On a side note, my brother works at Duolingo and wrote an article detailing a very similar migration (from Python to Scala) here: http://making.duolingo.com/rewriting-duolingos-engine-in-sca... and lists very similar reasons for the switch.
That's what I thought, but I'm trying hard lately to be less angry on the internet, so I took the most charitable interpretation possible. Which still didn't make any sense, of course, because the person is a racist jerk.
Queuing theory is something I'm familiar with from my educational background and general interest in math and systems. But I don't actually know of a good introduction to the topic, it's just a set of information I've accumulated and internalized over the years. Any suggestions from the HN crowd for something I can pass around to some of my team leads and managers that will help them to understand these topics?
