I think it was a joke as GET requests are not supposed to change anything, but often they do (probably because many devs don't know about, understand or respect the RESTful concept).

EDIT: For completeness, I have to add, that I am also part of the group of people who have violated that concept. Maybe neither frequently nor recently, but I did it too :-/

Can you point to any major pharmaceutical research company with 99% net margins?

In order for that to happen, you would need something that affects a nontrivial number of people for which it's possible to inexpensively find a treatment and yet only one company and no government has bothered to do so.
Since you're a software developer why not just start by buying 9usd wearables and reprogram it, bluetooth with colored or black and white screen, heart rate sensor and accelerometer built in.

Lots of people have been doing that and adding new features. Hardware is hard if you don't have the experience.
If it were me I would take that money and invest in myself. 5k can go a long way in self improvement and growth. If that’s not necessary or appealing, idk, I dont have any experience or knowledge of investing other than the stock market.

Another thought is to give it to a friend or acquaintance who would benefit enormously from it, such as someone who’s not making much money but could use a few thousand for self improvement that would double their income soon.

Who would say yes?

If the company is public, all of this is covered under SOX compliance or other regulations. If you're truly going to get fired by the CEO for not complying, better that than be the one thrown under the bus when the SEC (or other gov body) comes knocking.

Blue Origin yanked a super bowl ad after it was disclosed Sanchez was involved in its production team (presumably she was not free, and the ad certainly wasn’t.) It was then shifted to Washington Post at the last minute, with a slapdash ad. [0]

He can, but that time has to come from somewhere. It’s hard to believe Amazon is getting his full attention. He can own the stock, but I certainly question whether Amazon has a business-focused leader right now.

In the end it doesn't matter that much if he has not a legal case, and it is a win as far as he has managed to de-weaponize this kind of public shaming threats over what is normal consensual behavior.

Brilliant concept, clean design - I love it. I'll definitely be playing around with it locally, it looks fun and useful.

The ability to zip (or hash, etc.) and stream without creating an intermediate file is probably my favorite part.

The Japanese article is even more detailed. The comparison between Node.js and Go versions of the piping-server was interesting, that Node's streams are (subjectively) of similar performance.

I found another of your projects, I enjoy and appreciate the "small is beautiful" aesthetic.

In the scheme of waste in the legal field, I'm not sure PACER is a blip. (That's not a reason to never address it, but if we're prioritizing...)

For me (not a lawyer), my PACER usage never reaches the threshold where I get sent a bill. I can go research a case I'm interested in, download the relevant filings, read them over, search for related materials, and not get billed. If I really got into a case or couple of cases, maybe I'd get a bill that is less than an average hardcover book. Meanwhile, I've have spent some multiple of that amount on my own time.

I'd much rather a system like this than an ad-supported social network for legal filings.

My larger beef with PACER is the insanely poor user interface. However, it gets the job done.

Edit to add afterwards: Despite the above, I fully support making PACER taxpayer-funded and free-to-access.
The problem is, when you use the term "Chinese" do you include people from Taiwan and Hong Kong? And are you attributing the bad behaviours to the historical Chinese culture that has thousands of years of history or the comparatively recent (last century) rule by the communist regime?

The problem with the parent statement is that it has the typical lack of precision and accuracy of a racist statement.
If you need people to design their websites around your companies HR metrics collection for them to work, then your HR department's metrics are the problem. The easiest way to improve productivity at your company could be to drastically cut HR funding, maybe HR should collect some metrics on how much time HR spends building datasets that aren't accurate.
I'm confused, why do they need the details? You would have had the same result (no prescription) if you had simply declared yourself allergic.

"Allergic" == "don't prescribe, on pain of death".
To get any reasonable performance benefit out of 32+ cores the code running on those cores would have to be >75% parallelized.[1] I know very little about threading and such, but that seems like it would be a difficult thing to do for many (most?) applications. Point being that I doubt consumer CPUs will have that many cores until there's a clear benefit to it, and thus far there isn't. Even 8-16 cores is pushing it. If anyone reading this has more insight into the matter, I'd love to hear what you think.

Is it? It's a complementary opinion, but a rather obvious one. I think the main reason why a reader may just dismiss that point of view is that the article simply doesn't give enough information about that (the relation with his parents, or the rest of his life in general), so thinking about it the way the comment presents it is just unsettling and in no way revealing. The article gives you the information to connect with the touching aspect of the story, and I don't feel like there's enough info to understand anything else of it.
What makes this article a bit confusing is that they give an answer without making it clear what the question was.

Here's the missing question: Imagine you are a Eurozone pension fund or life insurer. You have to invest billions of euros very safely and eek out a return that is no less than inflation. How do you do that?

Inflation (HICP) was 1.73% in 2018. German Bunds, the safest euro denominated investment with sufficient volume, yield close to 0%. Now you look across the Atlantic and find that 10 year treasuries yield 2.63%.

The problem is that simply investing in treasuries wouldn't work because currency fluctuations would likely dominate any interest income. So you would need to hedge the currency.

The Bloomberg article is about why hedging the EUR/USD currency pair is currently too expensive for this idea to work.

It matters for European savers, including everyone who is paying into a defined contributions pension (e.g most workplace pensions). A significant chunk of those savings currently yields negative returns. The alternative is to take a lot more risk than you want to or are allowed to take.
Why is NY times allowed here? It has a paywall and most users cannot read the article.
Definitely feels like false advertising from a consumer standpoint.
> “By making the false claim that it is offering a 5G wireless network where it offers only a 4G LTE Advanced network.”

Well and clearly put. While the legal proceedings are sure to be convoluted, I cannot think of a single layperson who would see a 5Ge ad and think “oh this is just 4G”. Indeed even as a current technologist I didn’t know this until some HN comments weeks ago.

Any companies with such onerous policies could block sites like instant.page at the firewall.
It wasn't just censorship in the traditional sense, Huffman changed someone else's content that was posted. What an insane and unbelievably poor decision by the CEO of a major company.

Sure, the size of Huffman's change was small and limited in scope, but the injustice that it represented combined with the incredible lack of judgment by the Chief Executive rightfully rightfully caused a loud response.

He absolutely should've been fired for it, or permanently lost DB access at a bare minimum.

> If anything it's plagued with shills from governments and corporations.

Again, accountability for that behavior ultimately rests on the executive team, no? If content generation or interaction, the core of Reddit's business, is being manipulated, who bears responsibility to correct it?
No!

You should NEVER load javascript over https on a page that was served over http.

It gives a false sense of security that doesn't exist.

Because the source page was served over http, the source page can be modified by an attacker, making the script be loaded under ssl makes you think its protected. But its not since an attacker could just modify the script tag to remove the https bit in transit then modify the script thats now being loaded over http.

In sort, forcing the script to use https gives you no gain when the page that includes it is served over http and it tricks you into thinking that javascript asset is secure.
Is it possible to get actual audio from this?
Yes. An example is telco market leader Safaricom.co.ke that rolled out 'voice as password'. Keep in mind most Kenyan transactions these days are in mobile money.
My PT guy said they're apparently finding real effects for cupping. I don't remember the details, but the outline was that cupping is controlled bruising, and your body reacts to bruising by going into "fix-it mode" (that's the technical medical term) in that area, and that can help speed recovery from other injuries in that area.

So it's not "detoxification", but rather stimulating healing functions.

This was a two-minute conversation, so...
Mobx is my go to. It's fast, and a much easier mental model to integrate. Just inject the store you want into your components

It's much easier to onboard people. Redux is just a spaghetti mess of files upon files, trying to find the actual implementation of something. A mess.

> "True recovery requires nurturing a recovery mindset,” she writes, “one that fully honors the body’s need to recuperate and senses when it’s time to chill."

...and there's the proposed next bogus pseudoscientific fad for recovery.
Who is being tricked? I don't suspect the user is checking the script tags to see if they are secure. At the very least, this might stop basic ISP tampering used to inject bandwidth warnings, etc.
I agree. It reminds me of Tesla calling their system autopilot for whatever reason that benefited them, and then turning around and saying it’s not autopilot after people die.
Bigger question: why is public documentation and legal filings paywalled at all?

Wasn't there an old legal precept that that law needs to be public? (Even Draco saw that as a requirement.) And judicial opinions are part of the law in our system with precedent.
>but isn't the problem initial liad time most of the time? How could we solve that?

Off the top of my head, a good way seems to be to write better sites that don't include 10mb of javascript libraries.

It’s not a ‘best practice’ it’s literally the spec for the web.
As a bumbling idiot who never did university level math, I don’t understand the question or the answer. (I did understand the probability one and knew the right answer to that at least.) I’m trying to catch up. Would you be kind enough to explain it?

> - nearly complete loss of body hair, except on the head (which is consistent with wading)

It's also consistent with running. Running creates a lot of energy. Like a lot. You know when it's sub 10 celsius out and everyone is freezing their butts off? You go for a run in tiny tiny shorts and a tiny little t-shirt and yes it's freezing your nips off but 3 miles later you're sweating balls and wishing the t-shirt was smaller and the shorts even tinier.

They say the perfect temperature for a marathon is around 4 celsius. That's because when you're fast enough, heat dissipation is pretty much the only limiting factor to how fast you can run. Even an amateur runner like me can see huuuuuge gains in speed just from running in temperate winter instead of during summer.
Good point.

What would be a good way to avoid prefetch requests in your analytics if you only derive analytics from server access logs?
There’s:

• Agile as a set of values

• Agile as a set of practices

• Agile as a faddish silver bullet marketed to people who don’t know any better

I assume OP is thinking mainly of the latter two. It sounds like their business avoided formal standups and sprint planning, and didn’t generally care about Agile/Scrum etc. buzzwords. But I tend to agree with you that from a values perspective that seems perfectly Agile.
Remember our friend Shkreli? How about insulin formulation, and Truvada (PREP) that’s $200 a year generic, and $1300 a month in the US. There are many more, and to their credit pharma companies have accountants thst would make Hollywood blush, so it takes some digging past the claims of R&D (dwarfed by marketing budgets in many cases) being the cost driver, and not record profits.

Unless... you put “research” in there as a confounding factor to be cute?
It's the incident that we know of. How many times was this done in the past without oversight and without the generic public being aware? They can literally put words in your mouth without being able to disprove it.
> And also I would like to understand what is being done to stop or prevent other and future instances.

Nothing.
Probably to avoid a similar situation to Oracle vs. Google.
It seems like a scam.

I'm feeling scammed when I'm buying stock with a 30 min delay on pricing and orders becouse I'm not hooked up to the really expansive investor network.

I'm feeling scammed when I can't buy real estate obligations directly but have to indirectly buy it via some expensive fund.

I'm feeling scammed when Master Card charges x.x% of every transaction I do with my bank card and it doesn't even show up on the recipe.

But maybe it's just me. It's not really a scam since I know I'm being scammed, than it's just business I guess.

I’ve seen legal professionals not limit their queries, downloading 50 pages at $.10 each, when they’ve already downloaded the document umpteen times and only want to see the first or last page.

That also goes out the window when you want to read a 283-page filing including attachments.

Audio recordings (free) are starting to be made public at the 10th circuit. Looking forward to wider availability of them nationwide.

Honestly, idk if the cofounder episode was big enough to warrant the attention it had gotten.

Reddit has traditionally allowed for users to criticize the admins/founders to their hearts fill. This was one isolated incident, among a 1000 similar comments.

Now, the sudden disappearance of some highly voted posts is something I find more interesting. That, and tolerating subreddits that routinely break the site's rules.
They used to use the cost of creating copies as a threshold to prevent folks from getting things.

We just need a lawyer to take the time to point out that cost is negligible and the hosting costs would be nothing if they would do something like torrent the legal records :)

A problem with the loading instructions is that it reveals, to an unrelated site, every single time any user loads the site that is doing the preloading. That is terrible for privacy. Yes, that's also true for Google Analytics and the way many people load fonts, but it's also unnecessary. I'd copy this into my server site, to better provide privacy for my users. Thankfully, since this is open source software, that is easily done. Bravo!
