It's difficult to tell the person who's writing your paycheck "this is totally possible I just don't like it and so won't do it."

Like if you're doing SSR you could at least use something like turbooinks to implement state transitions.
I've found Notion satisfactory for notes, kanban boards, and simply having all things in one place. I use reminders in Slack as well.
The Levi’s I’ve bought in the past few years tend to wear out in between the legs. The fabric gets thin and weak and frays/rips near the seam, but the seam itself is fine. Is thst repairable?
A struct based lisp is something I’ve been wanting for a long time. This I am extremely interested in this project
Have you ever done solo though? From reading your responses here I get the feeling no. Not that your views would be invalid if you haven't, but it does give a different weight to them vs someone who has been doing it a long time, especially who is now e.g. over 50
Interestingly my wife's XS is having the problem you describe but not my X.

I've sent a note to the maintainers, but there's an open git issue for it. Not sure when their commits will roll to the store.

I'm told by multiple colleagues at redhat that they've raised this with internal support, so it should be sorted eventually. Lots of iphones in redhat and this is the app they officially support for TFA internally.
DNS based blocking still works :]
no he didnt, he managed to destroy the mainboard by doing his _first reflow ever_ without any kind of preparation, and later fixed that TV by replacing all the electronics inside
Regarding class size, the incentives are not aligned between the incubator and the startups. For the incubator, the marginal cost of adding one more startup is almost zero, but the chance that you might miss out on the next unicorn is big. So you grow your class size.

For the entrepreneur, the larger class size dilutes you. Yes, the incubator can scale mentoring reasonably well, but the visibility and prestige of pitching at Demo Day is going down.

If YC is graduating 400 startups per year, it's fair to say hundreds of them will not lead to anything. I don't have a good solution for this, each actor is trying to maximize their self-interest.

They got a click. Mission accomplished.
Normally never click on that but since this is a wsj article...

The web link now links to duckduckgo instead of Google, the actually article is not in the first page of result. Where as in Google, it's the first result. I understand the desire to help the little player but seems like this is more discouraging than encouraging people to switch.
I don't understand the downvotes to the GP, he is clearly referring in jest to this.
I hate Mozilla pushing their own things almost as much as Google (a screenshot service? I have a keybinding for that, thank you) but this will probably be the straw that makes me jump ship.

There's always IceCat I guess. Websites get away with loading files from a ridiculous number of third-party servers and it's pretty frightening when you look at the uMatrix tab for it.
Don't the courts ammend child support when your income changes? I didn't watch the full video, but from what I saw, the man claimed to have filed an updated financial disclosure, which the judge was unable to find.
I think that "I'm a backend person" says it all -- most of the people in this thread are probably not JS natives or front-end natives. All of the complaints about JS fatigue, or not knowing how to use client-side routing are because you've done things differently on the backend. Is it such a surprise that front-end frameworks and tools make more sense to people who actually enjoy and have experience working on the frontend?

If you provide an API schema, with a SPA the whole frontend can be developed separately of ever touching backend code. Okay, so you changed the name of model.thing to model.anotherThing - quick change in the reducer that is consuming that end point and call it a day.
I think everyone should stock their start/run capacitor for each of their compressors. That's pretty literally a plug and play blind change-out item before even calling a tech out.
the surprise is that we expected the opposite
I feel like this is standard stuff, especially coming from the UK and the huge amount of contracting in that market. The real hard parts of independent contracting (how much exact are market rates/how do I find & land leads for contracts without an existing contact at the client) don’t seem to be addressed.
Sometimes it does a weird horseshoe and becomes a time/ hobby ration that is worth it even with your day job.

I fix stuff because its fun and frugal, and currently have an ongoing classic car project which is fun but not so frugal. These things serve as a nice mental break from coding all day, everyday.
(Original tweeter here.) It seems that this is already fixed in Chrome 73 beta: https://twitter.com/jviide/status/1097199686849581057

>Other examples that use Turing completeness in practice: UI event loops (all videogames, all of robotics, all servers of any kind), string replacement, sorting a list of arbitrary size, searching a list of arbitrary size, path tracing renderers, file i/o, regression and any non-linear optimization, I could go on for a very long time, the list is really long.

A lot of these don't require Turing completeness. Anything that can be given runtime guarantee that's O(n^k) or even O(e^n) can be implemented without Turing completeness. Now if you need O(Ackerman-function) runtime, you gotta bring out the Turing machine, but I don't think such algorithms exist in practice.

Consider that pure SQL is not Turing complete. You can "search lists of arbitrary size" in it. And you can construct pretty complex queries in it to do so. It's the most popular programming language around and most people don't use the parts that make it Turing complete.

>Almost everything interesting in the computing world is done using conditional loops.

There's almost nothing that requires conditional loops with arbitrary conditions. Loops in Python all have the form "for element in sequence" and you can go pretty far without using custom iterators that allow for infinite sequences, which is considered an advanced topic. A lot of people program in non-Turing complete subset of Python!

> how many conditional loops did you use in the implementation of Animstack, under the hood?

I actually can answer this easily. It's implemented in TinyScheme (the scripting language of GIMP) which doesn't have loops, only recursion. So technically zero. Scheme is Turing-complete of course, but I don't think it has to be to implement Animstack.
How many SPAs use native controls with minimal styling?

Cars don't fix themselves--people do.

The only difference is vehicle manufacturers have convinced ignorant consumers into believing that technology has advanced so far that only a "professional" can do it, i.e. those who hold a copy of official technical manuals.

Try a really good interactive article from the New York Times. You'll have a much more impactful experience than if you read a blurb about the same thing on your RSS reader.
True, but not too much higher if you're careful to ground out the HV circuitry before you touch anything. It's also not nearly as high a risk as people tend to think [1].

So, in short, it's a Lisp, apparently CL-leaning. On top of expected features, it has fibers (aka coroutines, generators), parser generators that supersede regular expressions, and destructuring on access.

"People who sell crafts and other goods on Etsy, an e-commerce site focused on handmade and small-batch products, say they woke up to a nasty surprise Friday morning when thousands of dollars were withdrawn from the bank accounts and credit cards sellers are required to have on file in order to have an Etsy storefront."

Why do sellers have to have credit cards on file?

Buyers I can understand, but sellers?
I really don't mean to be snarky here, but you could pay to read it?

A lot of people on HN dislike advertising, but content creators are going to need to get paid if they want to create good content, and paying for it seems like a great alternative to advertising.

WSJ is having a deal right now where you can get the subscription for $1 for 2 months, which IMO is more than reasonable.

> Not only that, but extending these UIs will take more time in the future than their SSR versions due to the added complexity of the front end frameworks
Big theory: being a worthwhile person attracts people to your circles and also means there is actually a reason to be healthier.

If your life is crap, why would people be friends with you? Why take care of your body if your life is crap?
I took OP's comment to mean that tinkering is largely unnecessary now. Previously with both cars and computers you needed to know how to tinker because things didn't work perfectly so often. In the 80s both your computer and your car would need servicing/troubleshooting more often than today. I never tinker with my car or laptop now simply because I never have the need.
A major difference is that our relationship to risk has changed. For example, working on some parts of a Tesla or some parts of a hybrid would mean working with high-voltage equipment. Although I know some of the principles, I am hesitant to be my own electrician. I'm very cautious just doing a jump start.

Of course, this has always been the case, people just accepted (or didn't understand) the risks. The capacitors in an old TV could pack quite a charge. Working on a roof has its risks. Early chemistry kits let kids blow stuff up. Apparently it was accepted more, before.
So... people who hate learning should use SSR?

Once you've used grunt, using gulp is not a big logical jump. Then to webpack. Whatever, they're just build scripts! Roll your own shell scripts if you want! A day to learn them, or a lifetime of being a hater.
Or the phone designers can put bezels back in, so I have somewhere to grip the phone without it thinking I'm pinch zooming. Even just top and bottom bezels - then you can even get rid of the notch.

This seems to be a particularly weak argument to make. How is their model going to impersonate someone in a way that a human can not?
Or you could always, you know, subscribe to the WSJ.

The way HN reacts to paywalls is beyond ridiculous. It's like if every comment thread on a story about a Netflix original series was nothing but questions and answers about where to go to torrent it.

Google came up with this statistic for America: "The 2017 nominal median income per capita was $31,786."

Seems pretty straightforward. Grind and heat up meat trimmings, spin it to squeeze the heated fat out. Add citric acid as a preservative, flavour it with some spices, freeze an you have nice bit of fairly lean meat you wouldn't otherwise have. Nothing that couldn't be done at home. I wonder how fast it needs to spin.

Firefox's built in screenshot system provides one things that others don't. You can screenshot the entire page as a single unit, without having to resize the window beyond your own screen size.
So you'd be fine with being blackmailed with whatever your browsing history is like?

The Chinese government can do MORE because they can do things that would be illegal in America.

That's not to say our government doesn't skirt the law, but it definitely is harder and there can be consequences.
I've a standing offer out to friends of mine. They can drive their car over to my place (pre-arranged, of course) and we'll change their brakes together and all they have to pay is the cost of the parts (which is usually much less than they expect).

A few of my mechanically inclined but lacking confidence friends and a few of my other broke as a joke friends have taken me up on it over the years. Most can't believe how cheap, fast, and easy to do/hard to screw up it is. Very few repeat "customers" though. :(

In the fridge case, it turns out he had already ordered one for delivery in a few days and had already mentally parted with the money, so didn't want to fix his and call to cancel the order...
I appreciate that you took the time to do the math.
MinGW has a fork function?

Maybe that newer MinGW-W64 project or whatever it is called.

The original MinGW that just links programs to the system library called MSVCRT.DLL.

It provides POSIX porting only the extent of the meagre support for a few POSIX functions in MSVCRT.DLL. That has things like open, read and dup2, and a half-baked stat and such.
We always forget that jeans were designed for workers. Then they turned into a whole culture. It is not clear why some create a real cult of some things?!

Interesting, in French "retard" is a valid word (it means delay) which could be used as a project's name.

Honestly it's a lost battle to try to censor hurtful projects names. At best you can moderate US-centric ones.
Dear Google, you have a chance to do so much good! Don't fritter that opportunity away for easy dollars! We know ads are your cash cow currently, but you seriously have enough cash and talent to generate cash flows from less annoying (and perhaps, useful) things. Have some faith in your people. And above all, please don't be evil, and don't fib.

Dear DuckDuckGo, please can you focus a little less on search, and more on a producing a high quality browser? Seriously, I feel if you want to rid the world of Google's stranglehold, you don't need to make a better search engine, but a better browser. Google has bloated Chrome enough that any alternative that is lightweight, cross platform, with a solid password manager and dev tools would make me jump ship in a flash. Be sure to support PWAs too. And shorten your name - duckduckgo as a name is a bit weird - your new domain, duck.com might be worth doubling down on. Thanks!

Hijacking this comment to ask a question... so is this guide saying that regular RGB at 100% intensity (no transformation) cannot represent every single color? This is a bit confusing to me, as I thought it could. I was always under the impression that RGB values could represent all colors that can be represented on a monitor
But LFTB ("ground beef glue") isn't added to steak. It's added to normal, non-finely-textured beef trim before mixing, grinding, and packaging as ground beef. So this product about which everyone is talking cannot be mistaken by anyone for a steak. The finished product looks, tastes, and behaves as ground beef, and has roughly the same food safety concerns as ground beef.
I think that's because there are a lot more bio/hard science startups now, and fewer pure software plays. Pure software plays are great for a Launch HN, but the bio and hard science ones probably don't see the benefit, and also have longer cycles to launch.
Unpopular opinion: I love SPAs for simple stuff. Yes, they're a ton of work. But the feel of them is unparalleled.

I have my personal home page written as a Vue SPA. It was a silly amount of work to get together, and not everything works perfectly. BUT: it moves like a rocket. I pre-render the simple front page, so initial load is nearly instantaneous (especially with cloudflare &c), and, by the time a visitor finishes absorbing the information on the front page (which is just a palmos style collection of icons to other content), everything else is loaded. Which means that the effective load time of the whole website is perceptually indistinguishable from zero on a moderate-speed connection (like my crappy home DSL).

And that's... cool. It's legitimately cool. Let me have my fun!
> We're being inconsistent with our criticism, unwilling to apply it as a universal standard

A cursory search on HN will give you countless counter-examples. Can you give me an example of the inconsistency?

Are you suggesting there should be no posts criticizing China? or every such a post should have a banner claiming "Be gentle. Don't criticize too much. Look into the mirror"? how about HN visitors not from the US?

> We're talking about others (Chinese) needing to rebel, blaming this on brainwashing, without adknowledging our own inability and unwillingness to act, without being willing to label this brainwashing

You know what is brainwashing? "China’s most popular app is a propaganda tool teaching Xi Jinping Thought" [0]

> Our "blindspot" of admitting our own state the abuse of information fundamentally carves out, via the course of international law and sovereignty, the justification for other countries to do the exact same

First off, the US is not the leader of surveillance. Other countries don't need US's approval to implement their own surveillance. What a smack of arrogance. Are you sure you don't believe in American supremacy?

Secondly, I'm not aware of any "international law" that justifies surveillance because "the US does it".

> In essence: fixing this kind of thing starts at home in the United States. Sunday morning HN comment anguish over the Uighurs of China is navel gazing.

This reminds me of the the argument against space exploration: "Fix issues on Earth first before thinking of Mars". You know how absurd it is.

Many large entrepreneurs invest in the study of robots and artificial intelligence. But even Ilon Musk talks about the potential danger of robots, robotics and artificial intelligence. Why do we not think about these things now?
You don't understand. There are no "western nations" anymore. It's America First and everyone for themselves. Strong competitors are now a national security issue regardless if we are talking about Mercedes, Huawei or french cheese. Say good-bye to fair competition(if there was ever a such thing).

There is nothing conspirational. It's the new foreign policy.

China appers in the news b/c it's still the clumsy underdog. U.S has done the hacking and all the spy stuff for decades.
One of the most valuable things my dad taught me was that it's hard to break something so badly that it can't be repaired. That's not true of everything any more (I have a decent electronics bench, but I won't even try any but the most basic cell phone repairs), but for your list (Furnace, A/C, House appliances, Home repairs, Furnitures, Cars, computers, even clothes & shoes), I'd rather repair than replace.

It is harder to teach kids this attitude now. So many things that interest them are seam-welded or potted or otherwise inaccessible. It's still possible though. My daughter and I disassembled old DVD drives and made laser pointers from the diodes that still worked. She was excited to take things apart after school.
They shouldn't be. The USDA FSIS recommends cooking ground products (including LFTB) to an internal temperature of 160F. Eating ground or reshaped meats without cooking to proper internal temperatures can be dangerous.
