It's possible that it's because they are market dominating, that they have a different focus on which features to bring first than Krita. BTW I have been using Krita for about 2 years, and used to have a dual-boot with Windows, just for a better experience using Photoshop. I now actually like Krita better than Photoshop, so don't use the dual boot anymore. It's that good. My version of Photoshop was a bit dated that I am comparing it to, but I have been a Photoshop user since the late 90's, so I'm pretty familiar with their pace of advancement.
Well yeah but it's not the mess the gp alludes to.
Which features are missing? I text and call through Signal and I've not felt like there is anything missing.

For a while they didn't have support for front-facing cameras, but that was added some time in the last year. Only other problem I've had is that on some Android phones the "voicemail" feature (or w/e it's called) wasn't working well, but not sure if it's still a thing.

Aha, I was talking about generics.
I find Python easy to use. I don't think Go is easy to use at all. Boilerplate, boilerplate, boilerplate.

I don't have to write for loops in Python. Go makes me.
Ask HN: What do you think of YouTube entertainers?
Or more exactly those who fool us that are educational (Science, maths etc) but is just entairtainment in disguise. What do you think of the platform as of lately?
What is your picked gems channel you found(1)?

.(1) https://m.youtube.com/playlist?list=LL55MwOd4Z54K-wPHoC9Lklw my picked gems channel that I found amazingly stimulating. I now have two separate accounts/profile for YouTube so I train the machine learning algorithm to give me the best. And sometimes switch to the other one when I watch entertainment channels like exurb1a, Pewdiepie etc.
I don't think the AF crash was a case of that pilot "thinking it was unstallable" so much as not thinking, in the mental state he was in at that point. Even if the plane were "unstallable", pulling full back on the stick like that would not have been the right course.
The text is focused on the maker aspect of the project, and not on the software configuration for the cluster which can be found elsewhere. For that second part that you correctly found missing, you'd need to read a little bit more on documentation and other sources. It would be nice though, if he had some links for those interested in further research on the software part.
If my college age son gets trapped in credit card debt he can't pay off, I can pay it off for him. And maybe I would do, many parents would.

The problems are (a) he might just get into debt again, for the same reasons he did the first time; and (b) his brothers and sisters might be upset I gave him $$$ for fucking up, or even decide it's clever to emulate him.

In other words, by paying off something I can afford, I would fear triggering a chain reaction leading to something I can't afford.
What makes you believe that a ground pilot will be more competent than the existing air pilots?

It is very rare for crashes to occur because the pilots both become incapacitated. I do remember a crash that occurred because the pilots allowed the cabin to become depressurized and failed to diagnose the problem. Eventually everyone, including the pilots, fell unconscious and the plane circled on autopilot until it ran out of fuel.
Probably because medical device classification is expensive and might not allow for "fun" wheelchairs like this one. The upshot is that health insurance probably won't pay for this.
That should be covered in the land zoning code. Land where you're allowed to build a 40 story building should be more valuable than one where you can only build single story.

As well, the taxes on sales in the increased number of stores / sales of leases / income tax revenue from the increased number of residents should cover the increase in service costs.

If they don't, you're not running an efficient government. (Ha. Efficient government).
What touch pads use and also we did is capacitive sensors, but they don't really measure if something touches normally, they just give a high response if you are very close. Touchpads are covered by a insulating film.
But, if you already know the x,y position then one option could potentially be to make the keys of a conductive plastic and measure the change in capacitance when they get touched. You just need "one" wire that goes to every key. Treat all keys as one sensor.
> Please, pretty please, give me my buttons back.

The problem is you have very loud early adopters who are abrasive and forcefully tell everyone that X is the new hotness and you're an old grandpa for wanting old-X and, ha, by they way, I'm pissing on your lawn. So, the rational majority get tired of trying to be heard and give up. Google and Apple, thus, never hear from them.
"Open source" means the SOURCE CODE is OPEN. Which it is.

The internet is full of half-baked "secure" and "private" chat clients and servers. Security is hard to get right. I'm guessing they don't want the reputation of Signal muddled up with some other random client. IIUC anyone can run their own network, and make it as open as they like, using their code, they just can't call it Signal. Much like how Firefox and RedHat use their trademarks.
I'm like you. I use SourceTree to get a 'visual grasp' on what I find to be the noise of git commands.
However, if you're into command line, you can try fossil: it's got lots going for it.

Your idea of a "user's mental model" might land you into trouble though, because all of us come from different backgrounds (subversion, SSafe, git, HG...) and they all maddeningly redefine terms in different ways (eg branch, forks, commits, checkout).
Are you suggesting NYT is lying...? I mean, why they'd lie about it? Prosecutors use the media routinely to push their POV so it's not that strange...

Not revealing sources is SOP
One wonders if the Daily Mail reveals these secrets so that someone attempts to sabotage them and they can get a story out. Mind you it would be a poorly written article as usual.
I mean, say Telegram is bad, but don't hype up Signal as the pariah to this peril.

It is open source in the sense that you can read the source of the project, but can't really build it and use it for yourselves or verify the build you get via the App Store is the same as open source project. Practically open source as a marketing strategy.

Secondly, it needs a phone number all the time to use, which ties in with personal identity. Why? A better alternative would be a project that allows someone to choose a username and be done with it! Like HN!

The true danger of security is the false sense of it. It makes you feel okay to share personal and sensitive information. ️

I'd love for the Mattix project and riot.im to take off. Hopefully the government of France can throw its weight behind it for good causes.
There's a limited mobile experience, essentially it just gives you the ability to shuffle (which, many people say is the single most fun control).

The reason is that the experience really only works when you can see the art while you're tweaking a parameter, and there was no way to fit both the art and the controls on a phone screen at once. I had them stacked, and scrolling up to see what a control did was a miserable experience.
So basically you are saying that using a language with static typing you are guaranteed by the compiler that your refactoring is safe, while in a dynamic typed language you completely lose this guarantee and you will introduce bug, and you choose happily the second option?
And you are also convinced that people that want some correctness guarantee are juniors while who doesn’t care of introducing bugs is a senior? Since when did the world start going upside down?
What an underwhelming assessment.
IMO this is a problem with the shareholder-driven corporate structure. Corporations have a fiduciary responsibility to maximize value to their shareholders, and they have to show continual growth in order to see share prices continue to increase, which often leads to ant-consumer practices once organic growth becomes difficult.

Apple's a perfect example of this: they have a long history of making high-quality hardware products loved by consumers at an immense scale with high margins. In a more rational world, that would be "enough", and even if their revenue fluctuated somewhat from year to year, they could still easily support their activities and pay out generous dividends while focusing only on their core competency.

Instead we live in a world where a small drop in demand for a single product based on extrinsic market forces leads to a slew of articles heralding an "end of Apple". So they prioritize service revenue, and continue to squeeze more and more value out of every revenue stream which flows through their products.

It's insane that this is seen as necessary for a company which basically prints money, and sits inside a massive moat of wealth greater than the GDP of many nations.

Major Bank Publishes Private NPM Package
Neat! Seems fun.

This project was actually meant to be for plotter drawings originally, and the SVGs it produces are plotter-friendly (all the occlusion is done mathematically, not using fills or masks).
Why is it everyone outside of programmers (and even then) always picks chat services with the worst client software available?

IRC had issues but at least the clients were decent.
Do not try and bend the glass. That's impossible. Instead, only realize the truth... there is no glass. Then you will see that it not the glass that bends, it is yourself.
> Because the reason is that the contract you have with the hardware manufacturer and the terms of use do not allow you to. And there is no contradictory law or regulation that trumps that agreement.

You are simply answering the question "Why are things this way?" with a tautological "because this is the way it is." Whether or not the status quo will change in the future, it must always start with someone questioning it.
>Anecdotally I've found reading other peoples Go code far easy than I've found reading other peoples code in pretty much any other language

At the micro level yes. At the macro level though, it's easier to understand 10 lines of dense code than the 200 lines Go forces you to write for the same thing. At least you can see them in your screen all at once (and usually express the intent more directly).
Sure it is: but how do you know if it really is the source code of Signal?

For all we know, both the Signal network and its client are a half-baked "secure" and "private" chat, and the source code they publish is an elaborate decoy (though probably a subset of the real underlying code, for obvious reasons).
That'd be the illegal part of being a monopoly. The antitrust laws work by restricting (penalizing) monopolies from abusing their market position/dominance.

Basically, it's not a problem if you happen to be the best in computers. But it's a big no-no to try to force resellers into exclusive contracts and so on. (If you continue to just buy up newcomers to the market that's not a problem, after all investors can just keep funding new competitors and you have to waste money.)

But of course this is a very difficult problem at the intersection of economics, politics, law and sociology.

Funny what turns up on HN. You notice these everywhere, if you keep your eyes out.

All over the UK and the world on survey points, church spires, old chimneys, apparently random walls - anything that could once have been prominent enough to be a trig point or benchmark [1]. I've bumped into OS survey plates, complete with arrow, in India, Malaysia and Brunei jungle without trying. There must be billions of the things!

It used to turn up on every piece of military stores. Every shirt, rifle, bullet, knife, teaspoon, jerry can and tool. There's at least 3 in my kitchen cutlery drawer, and a few more in the garage. :)

Not being a C/C++ programmer, I wonder why they postfix their variables with "underscore"?

That's not a technology thing though. Just a marketing thing.
For those of us unaware of some of the intricacies and unusual/interesting features available in mainframe and other OS’s, could you provide some examples?
IANAL either, but two things stand out. First, breach of contract is not a criminal wrong, only a civil one. Second, it would be a big stretch to say that the relationship between users and Facebook (or any nominally free service) is a contract, as valid contracts must follow certain requirements like consideration or a meeting of the minds. This is partly why things like the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act that e.g. Aaron Swartz was being prosecuted under (persecuted, IMHO) can be so alarming: things like terms of service normally wouldn't even stand up as a contract, but under CFAA, they can give rise to criminal charges.

I have no idea what charges the Eastern District of NY might be seeking pursuant to these data deals, but maybe something like mail/wire fraud or honest services fraud? Again IANAL, but those are fairly broad and the government could make the case that Facebook fraudulently breached its duties to its users.
Because that's what the law says. Your business model is not allowed to infringe on the rights of your users to control their data. You can pay for the site to exist in other ways, but not by collecting your users data without their consent.

Today it's genuinely a security tool under user's control.

> The same way there's no 'need' to find bigger prime numbers.

From cryptography standpoint, there is always a need to find bigger prime number. I wouldn't compare this with a Pi.
It's about 5% of their fleet, and they fly, on average, with their planes ~85% full. There will almost certainly be some cancelled flights.

That’s a pretty bold assertion. It seems to be doing just fine without having been automated.
Full time coder here, who started to draw/paint 2-3 years back. (You can see my journey so far here: https://www.instagram.com/aqeelvn/)

Haven't read all the response here, so I probably might be repeating, but the basic idea is to spend some quality time actually doing it.

Like other arts this is also something one could learn. Take the time to educate yourself with the concepts in visual art. There is a lot you can learn on your own from resources out there. That was the option available to me mostly.

A solid grasp in drawing is required for making any serious work in representational painting.

Andrew Loomis has written a bunch of books that are now mostly available freely on the web. Its really old but its very good.

For painting, I recommend "Alla Prima" by Richard Schmid. This is not a casual read(even though anyone could enjoy the great paintings). Its full of solid technical concepts and advice. You learn more and more from it as you develop yourselves.

Draw from life as much as possible. Don't depend on photographs during your learning phase(although that is never really over) If you don't understand why that matters, don't bother and just stick to it. Soon you will see the difference :)

Good luck!

This echoes the sentiment of Deep Work, which helped me a lot with my own productivity.

If you can do 4 hours of productive work, truly, no distraction, deep productive work, then you're likely way ahead of your peers.

Leave the rest of your time for shallower work, which doesn't require intensity of focus, and make sure to spend some time re-charging, where you focus on not doing work or being connected at all.
I don't know what you mean exactly.
> They need young devs with ideas and huge skill to bring them to life

More likely young devs with naivety and thus motivation.
So where are the Go drivers offering 1:1 feature parity with JDBC for Oracle, DB2, SQL Server, Informix....?

An example for cluster based distributed framework similar to Akka in features?

What Go libraries provide feature parity to PDFJava, iText or POI?

Which Go CMS is comparable in features to Literay, Adobe Experience Manager?

Where is Go listed here?

Not really no. The relationship between verbosity and readability of control flow isn't as clear cut as you describe. For example Java is often praised in threads regarding Go yet that is far more verbose. C++ has all the features you described yet is still more verbose (overall) and less readable than Go.

Plus your post reads as if complex problems doesn't also decrease the readability in more descriptive languages but my experience is complex logic will be inherently harder to read regardless of the language.

I suspect what is actually happening here is your familiarity with language X means you find it easier to read code in language X - and that has nothing to do with verbosity, "proper" language features or whatever else. Personally, however, after 30 years of development on well over a dozen different languages (even some I'd be embarrassed to admit to), Go has consistently been up there for me as one of the easiest to read.
But that is population not a number of countries. If you look at it from a country perspective, the percentage is tiny.
That's not true; OpenGL, Vulkan and Metal also support HDR.
At a quick glance, that does seem to be a difference with the postfixed variables! Have not yet encountered something like that in the languages I've worked with. ^^
Good point. It’s one of those areas that the leadership folks don’t care about... until they do.
Telegram wins because it has a usable Desktop Client
Is it? Google as a content creator is not exactly what comes to mind first. So it could just be them thinking “we are in over our head here”.
(I can't find the full article as I'm not an economist subscriber)...

Isn't the general idea behind breaking them up that in their current state, these companies are near monopolies and make it impossible for new competition to thrive? Even more so because when they did have competition in the past (e.g. Facebook with Instagram), they just acquired them?

I wonder if regulators were not fully aware of this when that merger was happening -- I think Ben Thompson at Stratechery hinted at this in an article some time ago.
I always thought Fortnight was the new Secondlife.

> What constitutes as ownership in this context when dealing with nature is interesting.

Everything you can own is part of nature. Even if you employ a restrictive definition of nature, everything was still part of it at some point.
That's a totally different aspect that reproducible builds are supposed to solve.

Your "problem" wouldn't be solved by allowing third-party clients. You still don't know what the server source is.
I'm fairly sure knowingly selling defective airplanes involves some liability and breach of contract issues even without criminal charges. No need for the FAA to punish Boeing, but I expect them to feel the weight of public opinion.
Unless of course you don’t live anywhere because you move every 4 weeks.

Turns out our society is really not designed for someone without a physical residence. It’s made for a frustrating year for me.
> Most of the metalheads I know are absolute teddybears.

There is a lot of social batesian mimicry in adopting a "vicious metalhead" image (or any other image from a band). I would expect a sexual agressor adopting an innocent "boys-band" image (agressive mimicry in this case), underdogs trying to pose as "I'm richer than you, b*ch", and common people trying to identify him/herselves with a strong badass image or a more exciting life. Admiring the opposite of who you are is in the root of any fandom.
With currently shipping hardware and drivers? I know OpenGL can render HDR internally, but can you send that to a HDR-capable device today?
I mean if you're planning to violate the license then does it really matter what the license is? Your company sounds shady if you evaluate software icenses based upon how much it will hurt when you violate them.
I think you might be overemphasizing "off road." This doesn't look like the wheelchair version of a quadbike. It looks more like a wheelchair that can handle backyards, beaches and broken footpaths.

Besides that, handsfree control sounds nice. You don't need hands to operate legs and the wheelchairs do legs' job.
It’s not that it wouldn’t allow it it would just make it even more expensive due to the certification process, requirements you’ll have to meet.

Insurance wouldn’t pay for this in most cases anyhow so making it even harder to get to market and more expensive is pointless.
Apollo 11’s Forgotten Virtues
I often visit many sites every day and I often see big popups with full "ad partners" configuration. I don't have time for this! Sometimes, if I can see at least three lines of an article text in the middle, I try to read through it. Other times, I just confirm it so I can read the article. I think the providers should be forced to react to the "do not track" browser feature and then simple don't track and don't show any cookie prompts. Browsers are configurable so they should let people decide. Per-site web prompts like that do more harm than good unfortunately.
We've done it as a community for a while. The downside is sometimes someone borrows a ladder but doesn't return it. Apps would help.

I'm not sure if people would want to rent their tools though. It seems like the benefit of being neighborly exceeds the $3 you'd get from renting out a ladder.
The blog post is super helpful! I think the session concept is the thing I needed. Thank you!
