Again, I disagree. You're beginning with the assumption that native is the only, and best solution. As a user, this is simply not true. You may _prefer_ to develop for native, but that doesn't mean its the best choice for the user.

Very, very few apps need to be developed natively.

The vast, vast majority would be better if developed for the browser.

This obviously depends on exactly what you're talking about, I concede there are some specific applications that require it. Maybe _your_ specific app requires in, in which case, _you_ have to live with the trade-off of the gatekeepers.

Mostly, it's a self imposed prison.
Gee, Brain, what do you want to do tonight?
Yes, that is the beauty of the plan. The shortest list is just the book of Acts (28 chapters), and the next shortest in the book of Proverbs (31 chapters). When a list ends, it starts over again. So over the course of the year, you'll go over those books ~12 times. The longest two lists are the Pentateuch books (200+ chapters) and the prophetic books (250 chapters). So on any given day, you are listening to various books that keep changing, and you get a mix that helps you form connections between the books.

I have just two minor quibbles with the YouVersion plan:

1. As the chapters are being read, each chapter is announced with just the number, not the book. So you have to guess the book from the context. This was confusing the first couple months, until I became familiar enough with them to be able to guess the book from the content and the context of the chapter.

2. The plan is meant to continue indefinitely, but the YouVersion plan must be restarted after the first cycle (250 days). It irks the perfectionist in me, but in practice it's no big deal.

"Sustainable" is an interesting choice of words.

What is sustainability for Toyota? It's some combination of sales volume at profit margin such that they can afford to pay for their fixed costs, factories and such. IE, earn more by selling cars than it takes to make cars.

The financial definition is derived from the business one, because debt. Car companies borrow money to build/tool factories. Toyota would need to earn a return greater than interest to be sustainable.

For a facebook (or a patreon), what does sustainability mean?

Facebook don't have factories. Costs are what the CEO decides they should be and the CEO decides based on how much revenue is coming in.

Currently, FB is on about $60bn pa. If you look at their current cost structure, even critically, you'll probably conclude that facebook needs tens of billions to be sustainable.

Except.... You obviously don't need $50bn pa to make a social networking site. If the ass fell out of online advertising (not likely), fb might collapse, but social betworking would continue to exist.

If you told patreon toda that: "your revenue is $15m forever, no matter what you do," would they conclude that patreon is unsustainable and must be shut? Toyota would. I suspect Patreon would find a way to sustain the service.

Ubuntu Mate

I was always Ubuntu user. I tried a lot of distros but never liked them that much and always bounced back to Ubuntu which make most sense to me. I loved old Gnome2 Ubuntu and I actually very enjoyed Unity. I couldn't force myself to like Gnome3 on other distros. There was always to many crashes for everyday use, problems with upgrading extensions, and overall bad design (to big buttons and bars, interface made for touch screens). So when Ubuntu announced big move to Gnome3 I jumped to Ubuntu Mate on closest LTS release which was 18.04. I love that distro. Interface is going out of my way and most of all is designed with desktops in mind. The buttons are small, the status bar is thin, I can have useful information on the screen instead of useless borders and paddings.
I rely on donations for about 30-40% of my total income, and Patreon makes up about 50% of that. But I've always been fearful of its inevitable decline for the very reasons laid out here, and I don't like putting my livelihood in the hands of a VC-backed company whose interests might not align with my own. To that end I diversified my donation-based income sources, by using LiberPay[0] and by building fosspay[1] myself, which together make up the other half of my donation income.

[1] https://github.com/ddevault/fosspay

Anyone who is in a similar boat should feel free to reach out to me and I'll happily provide free hosting for a fosspay instance. A model whose incentives align with the people who depend on it and the people who support them is crucial, and it probably isn't a business model. If necessary and useful, I'd be happy to build this into a general purpose service.
They may be local, but they aren't bound to a single township. I live in a suburb, and there's no way a rideshare operator in my ares could function without consistently operating in at least 30 different local municipalities. Each small town deciding what is in their own best interest may conflict with what is in broader interest of people outside that town. If municipalities start passing their own rules that in some way limit rideshare & cab rides, all of a sudden you have drivers saying "sorry, I don't go to towns x, y and z". Or "I have to drive through town x & y to get you to z, and they have $5 surcharges on each ride, so that will be $10 extra for the ride." Then every town catches on to this revenue source and all pass similar rules, and a 20 minute trip costs an extra $20. I live 10 minutes away from where I work and still touch 3 towns on my way.

The narrow self interest of a small group isn't always compatible with the larger group, or even the small group's own longer term interest.
> Denying the Holocaust is not just idiotic, it is an outright denial of provable facts and an immense disrespect to all the victims of the gas ovens at Auschwitz and the other KZs.

Even more than that, it contributes to creating an atmosphere where it could happen again. Simply existing as a Nazi or white supremacist is a call for violence, and silencing them is justified self defense.
Kind of a slap to anyone who uses email aliases to sort/filter email
Show HN: We created a tool to schedule Google My Business posts
Hey everyone, I am the co-founder of a social media scheduling tool called OneUp. Over the past couple months, we have been asked repeatedly by visitors if we support Google My Business post scheduling (not to be confused with Google+). After numerous requests, we decided it was something we couldn't ignore anymore.

We looked into it, and almost nobody was offering scheduling for Google My Business, and the few that did were super buggy, hard to use, and charged around $50/month.

So we decided to make a GMB scheduler that was easy to use and most importantly affordable, even for small businesses. Also we have given the ability to set posts to automatically repeat (especially helpful because Google My Business posts expire after 7 days).

If anyone here posts on Google My Business, we would be honored if you gave it a try.

OneUp is only $3/month for up to 10 accounts, and there is a free 7-day trial (no credit card required to try it out).
Even if it's 75% of revenue on only that 37.5% of patrons, that still means it's not "pretty easy" to move to another service without taking a massive hit in revenue. Don't underestimate the network effects at play for something like this.
I will call support to notify them my e-mail (with a + in it) isn't working, like I have done before. No I don't have another e-mail address. Yes, this is really my e-mail address.

Are you staying on LTS or do you upgrading every new release? How you like move from Unity to Gnome?
It's entirely possible, in theory, to write bug-free code. It just isn't possible in practice, for humans. Isn't that rather sad?
what do you mean? those are all valid questions.
Because it's a gmail address, you can put as many . as you want anywhere in the name. Gmail strips them out when determining the email address.
I think if it were actual Nazis - i.e. people that promote a new holocaust against anyone other than white people, etc etc then I don't think people would have a problem.

Unfortunately, the term has become so devalued that "Nazi" means "Anyone that supports Trump".

> You can use Mailinator to do this already

While I'm a fan of Mailinator and their approach, I think the feature OP has about auto-clicking verify is unique. But yes, to do this right, you need the multi-domain approach of Mailinator instead of just aliases. Maybe Mailinator has an API or supports POP/IMAP that would make this possible, I haven't checked.
Thanks, you've put into words my somewhat bad experience with therapy.

>Or maybe "toxic masculinity" is an expression of religion, given religion role in defining gender roles. Opium of the people and all that jazz.

I think it's more that toxic masculinity is an expression of culture as informed by religion.

Many of the negative archetypes around women in the west (woman as deceiver, woman as seductress) derive from Genesis, and beliefs that women should naturally be subservient to men (literally, that woman is to man as man is to God) derive from the New Testament. Political conflicts and power struggles between the Church and Crown denied women rights as an attempt to control property rights and inheritance, codifying gender prejudice into law and social strata. Traditional gender roles and expectations in this case evolved from these status and class roles and the Christian ideals they were based on, which viewed women as property, viewed womens' bodies as inherently sinful and womens' sexuality as being taboo unless it served men.

These attitudes persisted with the secularization of the west and manifested through media and pop culture by way of the male gaze[0] and rape culture[1] which normalize the portrayal of women as sex objects, and of sexual aggression and violence against women as a healthy expression of manhood and signal of virility and status, or else blames women for their own victimhood.

...all of which just describes toxic masculinity in different terms.

Ask HN: How do you negotiate comp with a promotion from VP to SVP?
Hi everyone,

I'm currently a VP Eng at a quickly-growing startup on the east coast (post A round, heading into a B with decent revenue), and the CEO yesterday suggested we should talk about a promotion to SVP for me, which is obviously good news. My role wouldn't be terribly different, mostly cementing the things I already do.

But I'm wondering if others have any advice on how much compensation changes with these sorts of promotions. I have a solid equity grant from when I joined (within the first 10 employees, and joined as a VP – let's assume it was 2% at the time but has diluted from then A round), and my comp is probably market for my current title, but not super lofty ($200k).

Should I be pushing for a significant equity boost? Grants today (which are generally options-based rather than restricted stock like my original grant) are obviously smaller than when I joined, so should I expect any additional grant to be equally small, or is it common for a grant to be more substantial to the point that it could undilute my existing position?

Mostly just looking for norms and how much that title bump should carry with it.
Very true! I personally use both ProtonMail and Tutanota, and give my thanks to Proton for opening their OpenPGP library. I don't think the source to their servers is open, but that's not necessary since:

1) you can't verify they're actually running that code anyway

2) it's end-to-end encrypted so as long as the client-side code is indeed doing its part, your message could be sent to everyone on the planet without any fear of anyone figuring out its plaintext.
Hmm, oddly-specific number. Is there are a particular site selling a bunch of RVs for $26k each?

That's because it has to do with the death rate of children.

On average most woman want two children. But when a lot of them die they will get more (average of 6 around 1800).

The combination of enough food, education and good health care are why less babies are born.

So if you live in a country with good education but lack of food most women will still have more babies than two.

Good catch! I'm actually on vandwellers and not vanlife, was just mobile at the moment and had a brain fart. :)
I took six months off last year after spending six and a half years at a startup, from beginning through acquisition and eventual decline. I went from front-end developer to director of engineering, and completely burned out by the end.

I read "Ego is the Enemy", which helped me a lot in identifying why I stayed so long in a position that was bad for me (I was addicted to the title). When I quit, I established all these rules on how I was going to spend my day: out by 9am, back no earlier than 6pm, walk all day, take photos, become a better person.

Terrible idea.

I'd substituted one form of stress (imposter syndrome) for another (impossible goals). Pretty quickly I realized my mistake and accepted I actually had some baggage I needed to let go.

For the first month, I let myself do nothing. I could sleep late, watch movies, walk, or do anything else as long as I wasn't pressuring myself to succeed. In doing so, I was able to jettison my identity (I was a DIRECTOR after all..yeesh), and begin to identify what I actually wanted in life. It took me a full month until one morning I woke up without dread.

After that day I set a simple good: take one good photo a day. I eased back into a creative lifestyle, making sure I enjoyed the work every step of the way. My wife, through quitting coffee, inspired me to build an app that helped track my lesser addictions: coffee, chocolate, sugar, gaming. Now I was being creative and improving myself.

Through all this I learned what I really wanted, what was hurting me in and out of work, and with this knowledge I was able to rebuild my persona into someone who was happy and energized.

tl;dr Take it slow, don't pressure yourself.
Not sure of your app, but what do you care if multiple people share the same inbox? They can always with something like Mailinator or other domain-level aliasing.
> Why bother giving notice

i) Because you've signed a contract and they have lawyers that can come after you to enforce that contract or extract damages as a result of non-compliance.

ii) Because your personal values are derived from you, and not how others conduct themselves.

I do a bit of interviewing and it's remarkable how many people will apply for a job, be offered an interview, accept the interview, and then just not turn up for the interview with no contact at all.

It's a really bad look, and people do remember it.

(Obviously, none of this is meant to excuse poor behaviour by employers).
There's nothing wrong with `setState`, in my opinion. However, it does do magic. Although it might feel like it immediately sets the state to be what you provide it as argument, it actually schedules a state update to be performed later when React feels like it. That's why it's best practice to provide an updated function rather than a plain object: if the new state depends on the previous one, and you read the previous state before calling `setState`, then that can lead to problematic behaviour.

(And of course, there's the magic of the returned object not being set as the new state, but rather being merged into the previous one.)

That's why I called it a favor. You only get so many favors before you've burned through trust. Then you're cut off.

An employer who burns through trust with their employee is going to perpetually have staffing issues.
I'd reconsider this change. Lots of people use email aliases to track which sites share their contact details with third parties. I see it all the time in signups for one of my sites - don't mind, of course, because I don't share their data. If you stop people doing this it might send the wrong message.

You may want to allow email aliases, but ignore the 'alias' part when checking for uniqueness.

I use aliases to filter my email and also to see who sells my email address to third parties. All the websites I've used allow "+" in the email address so that's good.
But some of those artists are rightly concerned that Patreon has that kind of power. I don't want the phone company to restrict who I can call, even if I never would call the "criminals" they block me from calling. There are others who are supporters of the banned topic even though their particular bit of art doesn't actually have anything to do with the banned topic.

I don't know how many will leave, but I don't like the idea of a company choosing morality and so I won't support anyone on patreon. If an artists wants my support they won't get it on Patreon (fair notice, so far I have not supported any artists in other ways - who knwos if this will change)
I think this is an example where continental Europe differs from the UK. Although we have strong libel laws, the presumption I would hope is still closer to that put forward by JS Mill in On Liberty.
Too bad in most cases it is just used for prostitution stings. The definition of 'human trafficking' seems to involve the common consentual adult transaction, as well as common pimps, with much to say, but little to show against forced trade in humans that it implies.

A good idea, applied poorly. Just another part of the war on non-procreative sex by the modern social conservatives on both sides of the isle.
Yeah, I have one of those on my boat and they do work fine but you definitely can not wait 27 craploads to empty it out. Those "27 flushes" is how much the clean water tank can hold, not an indication of the waste tank capacity which is nowhere near 27 jobs. It's more of a daily thing - every time you dock if it's been used you gotta lug it down to the clubhouse, and emptying it is no fun either. For landlubbers a composting unit that separates solids and liquids would be way better for anything that you don't want to empty on an almost daily basis.

I don't believe that's true across cultures. Even in North America you've got social groups and organizations that are continuing to make babies like crazy.
Catalytic propane heaters discharge the products of combustion (CO2 and H2O) into the heated space. Oxygen depletion is a health issue. Condensation can also be a substantial issue. Even the smallest are sized much too large for the small volume of a car (both in terms of heat output and required clearances). The car is likely to become unbearably hot in less time than the heater's warmup cycle.

There are closed combustion forced air systems that use LP that offer similar advantages to diesel/gasoline systems like the Webasto (no oxygen depletion, no humidity increase) [1]. The LP systems generally have better high altitude performance because they operate on vapor pressure rather than utilizing a fuel pump. There are a lot of places in the US above 5000'. A downside is LP has a much lower energy density than diesel or gasoline so the cost per BTU is higher.
