The attitude you describe can easily hurt their business. They may be future paying customers that are exploring your service, or don't have the money yet to subscribe. And even in the latter group there is an opportunity for building brand loyalty.

But to see these opportunities, the first step is to not have a hostile attitude towards your users.
I guess that could be true for some things, but as a web dev (albeit n00b).... IE is still the odd man out support wise or wonky behavior wise the vast majority of times in my experience.

Stopped reading there.
Now that you say it, it's true I didn't have problems with too much power.

I never had an untrusted party editing my config, nor did I use data from any.

Also, you can make the same mistakes in the setting file that in any code file, but it's not more or less important.

In fact, all the problem I had could have been solved by better integration: solving the import problem, making composition easy, adding checks, allow loading data from several sources and merge them, presenting them in a unify interface.

If I'm being honest, problem with settings.py may have not been that it's Python, but that it's a flat file with no strong conventions, tooling or best practices.

I could raise the issue that you can't read the config from another language, but I never had to, and good tooling would allow a synced export or an API to consume the settings.

Same for writing, or live settings.
If that's the case then Microsoft needs to lean hard on all small and midsize business using a version of Sharepoint or Solomon or Great Plains to upgrade their internal apps to no longer require IE. Where I work our timesheets app on Solomon requires Internet Explorer -- which is a bucket of fun for all of our MacBook Pro using sales team.

Microsoft may want us to move on from IE but they've created the apps that REQUIRE us to keep using IE.

Isn't the latest versions of Firefox blocking ads and trackers by default now? Is Spotify just going to block every Firefox user now? This seems extreme, I guess we'll have to wait and see.
And you're not paying $1/track for Spotify.
> work out what we're going to do in the new reality whether we like it or not.

The reality in question is being denied, ignored or lied about.

> Ridiculing half the population as uneducated xenophobes isn't going to achieve anything.

Agreed - ridiculing won't do anything. But if half of the population are uneducated xenophobes, these problems will persist with/without/before/after leaving the EU. And this shouldn't be ignored.
It's fine to say that science does not support the claim that animals have consciousness, as long as you also agree that science does not support the claim that humans have consciousness.

I don't understand what you are saying about emrgentism being non scientific. Emergentism is the reason the reason that the Universe today has so many properties that it didn't have when it was a miasma of isolated hydrogren or whatever around the time of the Big Bang.

And most of that odd stuff is also crap. I value the ability to discover music that is relevant to my tastes.
Doesn’t Tidal offer very high quality streams?

As for iTunes, don’t they sell in high bitrate AAC? It is very hard to hear a difference in the vast majority of music between a high bitrate AAC and an uncompressed file.

Ha, I'm waiting this whole windows thing out.

I've never used windows ever, from ver 1 through the horrible 95 and NT, till v8 and onwards with it's spyware built in.

Glad to hear IE is also going away.

Enjoy your backslashes guys!
All this is an excellent ad for sci-hub, which avoids most of the serious drawbacks of publishers like Elsevier. It was interesting how that was relegated to a veiled comment at the end, "or finding access in other channels". But basically if the mainstream publishers can't meet the need, we do need other channels, and right now sci-hub is the only one that actually works at scale.
OP was asking if it was limited to the free version, and your answer seemed to imply that the web player served ads for all versions, since it didn't specify the account type. If that wasn't the implication, then my question is no longer valid.
Windows is not nearly as important to them as it once was, and this is starting to show. They are killing support for all of their browsers, and they don't really care if your app needs 11 or your user can't use edge.

PHP Needs Its Own ES6 – DEV Community
Ask HN: What fonts do you use most often and why?
I’ve found myself leaning towards Bodoni recently, as a number of brands have adopted it for their logo and it does look pretty appealing, but curious as to what others have been using.

Given how important font is, I’m hoping to find some gems in responses that everyone can benefit from.
In the EU everyone has a veto on everything. Nothing happens against the will of the sovereign states. To conflate that Germany is influential within such a supranational structure, in a situation where Germany also financially supports many other member states, with the imperialistic ambitions of Germany to rule Europe in WW2 is misleading, offensive and wrong.
Seeing that you can still use the same SQS API from 2006 and that in 2018 AWS still supports SOAP of all things for S3 (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonS3/latest/API/APISoap.html) , I would much rather be able to just look at the SDK to see how something is used than having to try to debug through an abstraction that the “architect” who was at the company years ago, put in a custom Nuget package trying to abstract the API and imposed s “standard”.

Yeah I have been through that before where the architect of the company wrote his own bespoke ORM, logging framework, etc. and he was the only one who knew how it worked.

In my opinion no one should be using Notepad for programming work or configurations that are more than 1-2 dozen lines. Nano is about the same: It's a text editor with no inherent tooling for configuration files and syntax support.

A construction worker can't complain that nails are hard to use because they showed up to work with a baseball bat. Or that they're designed badly because they brought a soft aluminum hammer with a tiny head instead of one made with a stronger metal and large impact surface. Tooling is important. Vim and several graphical editors have syntax support. Notepad++ if you're on Windows.

> YAML syntax is more prone than Python to parsing correctly but producing unwanted semantics when you make a mistake.

If you made a mistake, you made a mistake. Why do you expect a program with a mistake to work correctly? Use tooling which prevents you from making mistakes. And the particulars of YAML semantics are orthogonal to how your editor handles it. Yes = True, No = False, etc., for better or worse, but that's got nothing to do with your editor.

> many/most people editing YAML files don't know YAML syntax very well compared to this scenario. If their knowledge of English was at the same level, misplaced whitespace would not be chief of their problems in a graded English paper.

I wholeheartedly agree. So if a programmer complained to me that they were having issues related to inconsistency with whitespace, I would be suspect of their general programming abilities and would start reading their code to determine if the problem lies deeper than just getting an extra space here or there: Incorrect tooling, linting, sloppiness, inattention to detail... All of these things get in the way of well-written software.

As for whitespace in general, and the fact that it's harder for linters to determine and highlight if a block is correctly scoped without enclosures... Python and others have this same issue.

> It is of course a structurally valid (philosophically consistent) argument that people should not make mistakes and they should suffer when they do, but this goes generally against the consensus of configuration language usability thinking.

True, and I agree. Everyone makes mistakes even with things as simple as rote data entry. This is why tooling is incredibly important.

Tightrope-walking at great heights is incredibly dangerous. Practitioners accept this danger. They typically wear harnesses to mitigate the danger of falling. Of course, some people like to live on the edge and set records involving no harnesses. If someone like Dean Potter fell while walking a tight-rope freeform with no harness and plunged to their death, their last thought wouldn't be, "Shit, I knew that tightrope was poorly designed and dangerous," it will be "Shit, I wish I'd been wearing a harness."

We can't remove our harnesses and then complain that mistakes are too frequent and costly.
> Consciousness is that which cannot be doubted.

There are many propositions that cannot be doubted, so that's insufficiently precise. For instance, I do not doubt that I perceive things via my senses, but perception doesn't require consciousness.

It also leaves entirely undefined what "doubt" means. Your attempted definition would seem to assume that only conscious entities can "doubt", but is that really true?
It's a non-falsifiable claim, unless they actually catch and prove whomever did it. If he can get an intel agency (Amazon customers by the way) to say they are reasonably sure it was [insert hostile government], then it becomes gospel and an excuse to declare war or shake down US politicians retroactively for associating with that entity. We saw it happen with Russia in 2016.

It would have been interesting to hear what / if any discussion there was about picking Chromium.
Every mixer I ever met did 2 things. 1. Played the mix on a cheap cellphone (this used to be a boombox or 80s wire loop headphones), and a bad car stereo or 2. Listened on Car stereos, as they have whack eqs and soundstage, and will bring out any hint of ugly. Tiny speakers will distort readily, and pop music must sitll sound decent when abused, because omg ppl abuse it. For a club track, you optimise differently, but err on the side of sounding good on crappy radio speakers always otherwise.
I don't use laravel anymore, but I had a live template that would generate getters and setters that wrote to set_attribute. As long as you maintained the convention of doing this, you could use autocomplete with getters and setters to accomplish this.

You could also hint these with / @var */ there are ways around it but yes it isn't ideal. I really liked doctrine, perhaps I was using it wrong, but having everything in annotations was pretty nice since migrations etc could run off of it.

With doctrine I ran into issues with performance, which you can alleviate with extra lazy etc, it also hydrated what appeared to be massive objects, which you had to use a custom debugger because print_r'ing one with the recursive references etc caused some crazy issues. I have since moved on from PHP, but if the project calls for it, I have no problem using laravel. While not ideal, it sure is productive to build an API in. I wrote a project in lumen, which is/was a subset of laravel built for APIs, and that was okay to work in. No clue if it still exists.
Routing is a feature because you can express more complex semantics. Most php apps depend on Apache specific .htaccess files to handle redirects and other routing, and it becomes a mess quickly.

PHP files can be swapped out live because many CGI wrappers don't cache anything in memory, which means at high strain you start dealing with disk load, file locks, etc.

There are many other languages which also don't require compilation, often at the trade off of less performance. Some really clever languages let compilation be an optional step.

A single layer means your frontend logic, data models, and database access all run the risk of being one giant mess. Sure other languages run that risk too, but it's especially prevalent in PHP.

PHP can extend itself - it can also be used to download attack vectors and execute them directly on the server with no concept of code signing. Other languages offer powerful facilities for remote updates if they're desired, but that's usually not the best approach for Web.

You can edit other languages with notepad too.

Being able to deploy a single endpoint to a live server and hoping it doesn't cause problems sounds like terror.
Try to take on a contract or job role that's a significant but achievable step above your current level of capability.

It's amazing how quickly you can learn something when you throw yourself into a situation where you just have to do it, or else.

Obviously you need to take care to ensure that your employers/colleagues will be supportive and understanding that you'll need some time to develop new skills. But you also want them to push you to raise your level to what you/they know you're capable of.
Assuming they aren't using plain text, or simple hashes, how would Twitter do that? Even a standard salted password against that many accounts is tens of millions of cpu hours. Using something like bcrypt would be 10,000x slower than that!
I really like google’s music offering, but I the only reason I don’t subscribe is because I listen to music on my work box, and I refuse to sign into Google on it with my personal account
When people talk about symfony now they usually mean version 2. Symfony 1 is not comparable to Laravel.
Care to elaborate? Your statement is hollow on its own.

How does your editor destroy information? What kind of information is destroyed? Why is your editor rearranging bits in validly encoded text files?
You can still buy and download MP3s of pretty much anything through Amazon Prime Music.
My god, how far the web has fallen. Search engines were originally intended as tools. It was their job to index and deliver all content relevant to user's query.

You could publish an article and if your website was indexed and users searched for something related to your article, it would appear in relevant search results. You could actually get traffic that way and bootstrap your audience without being one of the select few established websites with millions of visitors.

Page rank slowly eroded that into the broken model we have right now.

>Now imagine how easy that same process would be for the waves of fake news blogs to spread misinformation.

Imagine you could publish good content on your website and actually get visitors without becoming a vassal to Twitter, medium.com or whatever is popular at the moment. O horror! No, we can't have this stand. We need to centralize and control everything because someone might, gasp, get incorrect information from the internet.

Also, what about non-news subjects? This shit is affecting everything on the web, including product reviews, analytical essays and even educational content.
"Additionally, Karakul is so salty, it’s almost impossible to navigate a boat on it without capsizing due to the vessel riding so far out of the water."

Premium doesn't have any of those ads. And if you're blocking their ads you're not paying with time and attention. Spotify seems pretty reasonable to me, it's free with ads or you can pay for a better product with no ads.

> Consciousness must serve a functional, adaptive purpose,

Why? Not all of evolution is adaptive. It's also possible that consciousness is something more fundamental that strongly emerges when the right sort of physical activity takes place. On Chalmers view, it's rich information processing that results in consciousness. Evolution would only provide the means for how that information processing came about in animals. But it could also came about because of Boltzman Brain randomly popped into existence or human design.
Maybe, but its a big enough use case to be optimized for imho.

There's a bit of a difference between being influential through strong economy and democratic process vs dictatorship and genocidal occupation.
Bandcamp is definitely my favourite platform for buying music. No DRM, flac format available if that's your thing. Artists can put up both digital and physical merch.

Wish they had a more fully-featured experience for streaming music on PC. Downloading to play in foobar is a bit of a faff sometimes!
So if I have self-doubt, my self is not conscious?
This is sort of a how to not do things:

1. chown -R apache:apache . # Now the webserver will have write access over the whole application!

2. chmod -R u=rwx,g=rwx,o=rx app/cache # Now all files in cache are executable and writable by the webserver!

3. apachectl restart # graceful might be better here.

Securitywise 1 and 2 are not good things to do.
All data and file names are encrypted on the client. You can see this in the source code: https://github.com/savefileme/savefileme/tree/master/api/aes...

The price is sufficient to cover the cost of storing the data for no more than 30 days. And what do you mean "no-name"? We are a small non-native English speaking team, and just wanted to show our project for discussion. Of course we are not BackBlaze, yet.
It's totally unclear to me why you think this should be considered bad behavior.

Imagine a grocery store has a promotion - you can get a loaf of bread for free if you listen to a twenty minute advertising presentation. Does this justify not going to the presentation, and just stealing the bread?
Because the subscription service is ad-free?
Yep.
At this point now there's so much paid music available in high quality than anyone who says that it's still not good enough is looking for reasons to feel better about themselves for not paying.

There is no objective proof that mental illness even exists, so the burden of proof is on those who claim it's just like real illnesses (psychiatrists and psychologists). They're the one's claiming to be scientific.

I'm merely claiming they're not being scientific.

There is plenty of evidence that disfunctional social environments often lead to disfunctional individuals.
He last used Intercom 3 years ago but is just writing about it now. A LOT has changed in 3 years.

I’ve used the product on multiple projects over the years and it’s matured a lot over time. We use it as a support tool and a way to identify qualified leads. It’s also handles our targeted email campaigns. Their support staff is incredibly on point as well. I personally think it’s a fantastic way to engage customers. Seeing that little bubble in the corner of every site kinda drives me crazy, but I know where to go if I have a question.

Sane people do discredit most of psychological science. BTW, they're a real science where people could find an answer, and economics almost entirely isn't.

Probably the best piece of economics I've seen is Coase's theorem. While we base our laws on this idea, it's still a shaggy dog story, and basing it on dialectical materialism, the divine right of kings or Schmitt's friend/enemy principle would work just as well. Citation: places which never heard of Coase's theorem work/worked just as well.
Right, the title makes a claim, and their conclusion is that the opposite claim has failed to meet its burden of proof...

Thinking that "because something has not met its burden of proof means that the opposite must be true" is a fallacy.

One thing I'm worried about WRT switching to a pump is the impact of heat on insulin. I can't have a Humalog pen exposed to 80+ degree heat for more than a few minutes without it losing efficacy. I live in Texas. What will stop the summer heat from cooking all the insulin in my pump's reservoir while I'm walking down the street?

Do you have any thoughts on this? I'd love to have more flexibility.
Per a quick google <15% of type 2 diabetics use insulin. I would say this effects more type 1 diabetics than anything. Or are you trying to say peoples lifestyles are leading them to an autoimmune disease?
