Exactly there is a festering double standard that needs highlighting and correction when the pendulum swings the other way.
Realistically, the things I've seen focus on the trade-in value of said car -- ceteris paribus a car with 80k miles is simply not worth as much as one with 200k miles. Plus the increased maintenance associated with all the extra miles. I'm also pretty sure the used car market is penalizing people for their ride share activities.

So they may be "unlocking wealth" today but in the long run who really knows how much of that "wealth" they're really benefiting from if any at all.

Hi I'm author -- comments on HackerNews are more trenchant especially for tech aspect.

1. both auntie "Meiyu" and "CoFacts" are open source projects, we share the source code on GitHub.

2. can't disagree the search results might be manipulated, but for now, there's just limited volunteers to "clarify" most of rumors on CoFacts.

3. Logs: that's a certain point. Since I deployed this project on Heroku (which remains limited logs) I still have no time to format the logs. this comment about log storage makes sense to me, I won't rebut this point of view is nothing to me, it matters,will update it for sure.

I think wsj actually skip most of background of why we do this. Since not only Taiwan's election has been effected by deliberatedly manipulated rumors, endless medical misinformation. furthermore, most of medias own strong biases in Taiwan, everyday these's (even quite rough) fake news, bombing everyone's brain day after day until you give up to clarify anything.

And these medias own resources, centralized to publish fake news, to fight with them in fact is quite hopeless, unless we try to decentralized our information, allow everyone got the chance to verify these and speak it loud.

So Meiyu, imo at least it clarifies rumors / misinformation for you, and repeat it tirelessly. It's annoyed for everyone I can totally understand (That's another reason I name it as Auntie "Meiyu" by very common senior generation name, I'd like This tiny service becomes a bit heartwarming and friendly), but we must go for it. nor only someone's life / health would be misled by misinformation, but even our island would be ruined by elaborate politic rumors as well.
So I actually did a PhD in chemistry and just happen to work in software for reasons [0]. A thing that totally blows my mind about the periodic table and early materials chemistry is how it's in essence a derivation of "quantum mechanical" electronic structure.

Thank you for your earnest and genuine response. It's a lot to take in, and I'll have to think about everything you've said before I can fully internalize it. In the meantime, I'll try to avoid commenting on threads of this nature until I'm more confident I can do so in a way that is productive for the forum. Thanks again for the feedback!

Mars is too warm for liquid methane (-162°C). Mars ranges from -125°C to +20°C.
A low earth orbit, like the current space station, has roughly half the sky blocked out by earth plus the magnetic field of earth to somewhat protect it. Getting to the lunar gateway's weird orbit, if you were already on the moon, could take several days versus less delta-v to just go to low earth orbit which can be done at any time.

Every billionaire is a policy failure - AOC
The car was 400 miles away. I had the check in hand when I went down to see it and it wasn’t as described simple enough.

You’re essentially saying people should fork out hundreds to test drive a Tesla (that’s the going rate for rentals unless you’re saying they hunt down someone to just give them a car) or buy it sight unseen, neither of which is reasonable for a mainstream buyer when you start talking about the “affordable” Model 3 this change supposedly allows.

I also don’t get what you mean by buyers saving a couple of thousand. They’re still paying delivery fees and such.
That seems on the high side. Maybe quarter roll per day per person.

Using more than that it’s probably cheaper to buy a Toto with the bidet.
Which also can lead to social exclusion of individuals, which is critical at school age. In the past time rumors spread between groups, so even the not-liked kid could overhear it somewhere. Now all the discussions move into the private group, where only the "cool" kids come in and spread less over smaller groups ...

> The democratic republics that score the highest/best in things like quality-of-life, income equality, incarceration rate, crime rate, access to healthcare, life expectancy, etc., all have forms of government where the executive is not elected at all by popular vote, but is instead chosen by the legislature.

They also have systems where the electoral system for the national legislature produces substantially more proportional results than the US system, which seems to be a more significant factor, as it both means law is more likely to reflect the preferences of the people and the evidence suggests it also creates a more multidimensional space of public discourse and, therefore, considered policy options. In fact, a lot of systems with Presidential and Semi-Presidential systems are better than the US on these measures, and they tend to have more proportional systems for electing the national legislature. (Also, usually the President as well, though that, again, doesn't seem to be as important.)

Also, the US executive isn't elected at all by popular vote, either—at least no more than ones in which the executive is chosen by a parliamentary majority—though the body by which they are elected isn't the legislature and has no other function than electing the President and Vice President.

The US executive is separately elected, but neither directly or popularly elected.

> The only other countries that have a form of government like the US's (a presidential republic) are ones like El Salvador and Turkey

That's...only true if you take “like El Salvador and Turkey” absurdly broadly. There's a pretty wide diversity of Presidential systems (and even more if you include Semi-Presidential systems.)
> patiently educating them until they see reason and change their minds.

I can hold out longer than your patience.

> Or maybe by forcibly confiscating their voting rights

I don't have voting rights.

Billionaires shouldn't be allowed to exist in our society. That kind of wealth hoarding does no good, it's a massive waste.
I value informed opinion much more than random anecdotes.

I'm hoping there's more to this comment than just "my friends use Uber so it's hard to believe Lyft has 39% market share".
London and Sydney have insanely high costs of living so recruiting and retaining skilled people means paying high in the first place. In London or Sydney you can make £100k or $140k as a good developer. Google simply pays double that at L5 so you don't think about leaving.

and I was going to ask why isn't there an "I hate blockchain and Bitcoin sucks" article on the first page today
Except that if you say, implement a wealth cap at X millions then taking a billionaires money still leaves them rich enough to do anything.

That's not slavery.
To save others having to follow the two links necessary to chase down the matrix they're talking about to better understand the article:

I recently developed some Python GUI app using Kivy for Raspberry Pi, and I'm quite happy with the result. From the short code examples of LittleGL, it looks similarly easy. I wonder how they compare. But maybe it would be hard to run Kivy on Micropython / micro controllers, although not sure.
I think decentralization is important. I think the benefits of it should be argued to get people to use Bitcoin, instead of crypto-enthusiasts trying to get people to use Bitcoin because it's "easier" or lower fees, which aren't always true.

If email didn't exist and people mainly used Facebook messages, I'd want to help agitate for something open and decentralized like email to become popular. It wouldn't be because I thought email was easier than Facebook messages. It's because there's benefits to the competition that comes from an open ecosystem.
I think capitalism and socialism both address issues of scarcity, with one trying to direct resources to those who produce the most "value" and the other trying to ensure everyone has enough to get by.

Not a lot of thought has gone into the economics of abundance. I think an easy place to start experimenting with this is with food. In the US we produce far more calories than we need and there is a ton of waste, yet people are still hungry. Why? How can we do better?

This is clever.

So I'm curious, how is Amazon able to execute so effectively in so many different spaces? It would seem to me that any company endlessly extending itself into new markets is doomed to lose sight of its core competencies and eventually collapse under it's own weight.

And yet Amazon still grows, and keeps executing. How is this possible? Is the 6 page memo the magic sauce of sprawling corporate empire governance? Am I just not understanding some fundamental tenet of business?
This is a network game, so market share is everything.

Market share means drivers stay busy and make money. Market share means riders don't have to wait a long time.

Uber gave massive discounts for a long time to establish their market share, and it suited their long-term vision just fine.

Same strategy seems to be working well for Lyft, too.
> Thanks for the No True Scotsman logical fallacy

Not no true Scotsman. gatekeeping, yes.

> I'm defending everyone's human rights, and I'm calling that "the left."

Good for you, but I wouldn't call that left or right wing. Defending private property rights is more right wing than left wing.
Whole Foods doesn't carry liquor in any place I've ever lived.
Landing any plane is more difficult than taking off.

Taking off is mainly a function of airspeed only. Landing is a delicate balance of: airspeed, rate-of-descent and the associated engine power, attitude of the aircraft, and 'eye'.
lex/flex definitely supports semantic actions and definitely does not have a hardcoded notion of tokens.
There is definitely a (relatively) small number people in the US who were harmed by globalization. The problem here is A) they have disproportionate political power and B) we lack a social safety net so they got hit harder than the should have.
Is the full stack role here also still open? https://zulipchat.com/jobs/
Most of EU plans I have experience with are not capped; but 10gbps seems insanely high.
My point is that this isn't the free market malfunctioning. This is the entirely logical outcome of capitalism. What you (and I) are asking for is more regulation to prevent these outcomes.
The Irish Hunger Memorial is worth a visit to experience such a juxtaposition in BPC today.
But it's not like Lyft would suddenly have 350 full time engineers developing new features. A large chunk of those engineers would be working on building and maintaining infrastructure that AWS provides.

No verifiable evidence is presented because it shows your hand. If you show the enemy what you don't know, they could figure out what you weren't able to find out, and use that to their advantage. If they can trace the evidence back to a particular source, they can crack down on it and prevent future evidence from being collected through that pipeline. At best this means they change their security procedures, at worst it means they murder your spies.
Eh, it's getting much easier to order online, try it on, and ship returns. After getting frustrated with stores not having the size of the item I wanted in stock, I started ordering online from specialty sites and haven't looked back.

The only problem is time though - it can take a couple weeks to do this.
> someone with control over example.github.io might have been able to get a certificate for any github.io domain

I think that, realistically, that's a lot less likely. I think the "weirdness" of the in-addr.arpa hierarchy contributed to the "manual validators" just shrugging and pushing through.

I think the main issue raised is that whois record checking is becoming manual and silly because of whois throttling and captchas and GDPR concerns ... in many cases it's not really working well enough to issue certificates based on.
Different kind of landfill.
You can get a basic version for a couple hundred. I got one, it's great.
I find german and russian weirdly close to each other. Ok so there are the obvious words like кино, but also other things like the fact that in german, it's "jemande/m/ helfen" and in russian "кому-то помогать/помочь", both taking dative. There's loads of other similarities. Maybe it's the fact they're both indo-european, I'm sure someone more knowledgeable could explain.

I wish they could have included more craft beers or smaller wineries. I don't drink the mass market stuff, in part because it's a given they will engage in worst practices if it saves half a penny.

Peak Organic IPA was the one microbrew they did test and it contained no glyphosate. It's also a really good beer.
Is there hard evidence that shows the energy consumption of bitcoin? How is that calculated? I do believe it's "a lot" when I see those giant farms churning. And how do we compare it to fiat where the security is via vaults and sharks with lasers and other types of security?
Almost all of the US banks allow you to add other ACH accounts that you control. Just confirm the two trial deposits and you can push or pull money from that account.

A few banks also allow to send ACH transfers to third-party accounts that you don't control - for example with USAA that's possible. This still doesn't 100% match how transfers work in Europe (you first need to add the account, then wait 1-2 days, then you can send funds to it), but it's definitely better than "signing a bunch of forms".
I would guess the perceived gap is also popular processed foods that would hurt the Whole Foods brand if they carried it.
That may be due to local laws. In the places I've lived (MN and OR) no grocery stores are allowed to carry liquor.
I'd argue that any characteristics beyond income and accumulated wealth are secondary when we are talking about economic class.

Checkbook.io | Blockchain enabled Digital Checks | Sunnyvale/ San Francisco CA | ONSITE | Full-time | Engineering | $100K+ and equity

We are a fintech startup and solving the problem of paper Checks. Contrary to popular opinion paper Checks are not going away, in fact according the 2017 report by the Federal Reserve 17.2 Billion paper Checks were sent in the US alone, transferring a sum of money 4X times VISA/MC combined!
We’ve built a way to send images of Checks instantly in email and the recipient can Deposit them online by verifying their bank account instantly. Furthermore building and enabling a Blockchain for settlement enables instant verification and disbursement. Basically we are doing to paper Checks what Stripe and Square of have done to the Credit Card space in Online and Mobile payments.

We’re Seed -> Series A, seeing exponential growth, have a small but great team and super investors (Tim Draper, Naval Ravikant/Kevin Laws of Angelist thru one of their angelist funds, our customers and many more ) i.e. this would be a good time to join

Looking for both a back-end as well as a front-end engineer. Need to have a strong background in being able to write scalable software, preferably multi-paradigm, disciplined. - I’m the Founder of the company - this is a “co-founder” level opportunity - you’ll be working with me and other core people in the team. Work hard - play hard.

Our tech stack is Python, Angular, Postgres.

We move fast - if you’ve done a hackathon - we’ll probably want to do one with you and it’ll be clear if we are a mutual fit

"There is no connection between hyder ali and American revolutionaries."

I am curious why you say this despite all the evidence they shared in the article. I focus on just one of the items, the ship, Hyder Ally. https://historyofmysuru.blogspot.com/2017/11/when-america-ce... "a single mast ship named Hyder Ally gave the fledgling navy of United States of America one of its greatest victories". Seems like there was enough a connection if people were naming warships after the guy.
Huh, cool observation
> firm, 5 (or multi-year) arc planned out in detail years

If you read the books, you'll learn the truth is much more interesting than that. While JMS absolutely had a large number of ideas, and an overall arc, it was far from firm. Every character had trapdoors built in in the event that the actor left the show (e.g. Andrea Thompson/Michael O'Hare).
I would normally agree in cases where creators try to contact Youtube for a week, fail, and post on social media. But in this case, we have no way of knowing since the author went straight to speculation and social media.
