Can you elaborate what you like so much about Apple's butterfly keyboards? I've used every Apple notebook keyboard since 2003 and up until 2015 I was pretty satisfied. The only keyboards I considered better were Thinkpad keyboards. The butterfly keyboard to me is completely unusable due to lack of travel and feedback, so I barely use it. It feels like bashing my fingertips on to a flat surface, hoping for keystrokes to register. I prefer to drag my mechanical keyboard along and use that.

Seems like you should be using a content management system (CMS) instead of coding a website. I'd recommend a hosted service[0] so you don't have to manage updates and security yourself.

> RT's model prioritizes consensus in quality instead of brilliance. Using RT for a best of list will give you good safe movies instead of outstanding ones.

It's not, but then the whole concept isn't good for news. Particularly, a model with the effects you describe would favor news that, irrespective of the ground facts, avoids reaching conclusions that are going to be unwelcome to any significant group.
The only gateway I needed was a work-provided iphone 6. Soon after, I switched my personal phone to an iphone 6s, and I was all in after that...macbook, watch, icloud, etc...

Honestly, before I was 'forced' (for work purposes) to use an iphone, I wasn't a fan of Apple - although I admittedly never tried using one. Since then, the three guys that sit near me at work have bought into the apple ecosystem as well.
The US didn’t overthrow the Mossadegh gov’t in a coup. It did back the opposition during a very turbulent time in Iranian history (massive protests against the Mossadegh gov’t), but to say the gov’t would have survived in the absence of US involvement is a major overstatement.

Ask HN: How to let people know about your website with no budget?
I made an anime/manga tracking website (https://toshokan.moe/) that's essentially done now, but I have no idea how to get people to know about it. It's mostly just a hobby project/learning experience so I don't expect it to be profitable and as such I don't have much money to sink into it, but I would like to see people using it (or at least giving feedback as to why they don't like it).
"bitness" is defined by the natural data size of common operations.

The Z80 is 8-bit as most of its internal operations work over this data size and its registered are 8-bit. It can perform some 16-bit operations over two registers, but this is less natural to the design (based upon the 8-bit 8080).

The 8088 is 16-bit as its registers are naturally 16-bit even though there are also ways to address them as 8-bit halved. While the distinction between registers that are 8-bit but can be paired (Z80) or 16-bit but can be halved (8086/8088) may seem arbitrary on its own but looking into the instructions available and how they perform makes which side a chip sits on more obvious.

How much can be read at once is not the right differentiator, as it is essentially an interface issue. The internals of the 8088 are the same as those of an 8086, apart from those at the interface which break the 16-bit requests into 8-bit ones, they just have to wait longer for the signal that data has arrived/left.

Another common one that can confuse is the 80386SX: these are 32 bit chips (essentially the same design as the original 80386, latterly referred to as 80386DX) with a 16-bit data bus (so 32-bit requests are split as seen with 16-bit ones with the 8088) and a 24-bit address bus (limiting them to 16Mb physical memory like 80286 chips). These limited bus sizes allowed them to be used on motherboard designs originally intended for older 80286 units.

Other confusions come from specialist instructions: floating point operations using larger (40- & 80-bit) special purpose registers, SIMD instructions (such as those in the MMX set, introduced on 32-bit Pentium lines, operated over 64-bit collections of smaller values), etc.

Sometimes it works the other way around: the original Pentium lines (up to the Pentium 4) were 32-bit chips even though they had a 64-bit data bus (this made loading data into the L1 cache faster, rather than marking the chip out as 64-bit overall) and some 64-bit instructions.
For "normal infantry use" AK is still a massive improvement over anything firing a full power rifle cartridge. Sure the AR platform makes for a better shooter's rifle but that wasn't a high priority design goal of the AK.

No matter how short your shorts are (I hope nobody here gets that reference) trying to lay down full auto suppressing fire with a FAL is going to be less effective than with an with an AK and its intermediate cartridge.
Depends on what you want to achieve. For example you can only forward forms‘ input to a mail address and go from there. Or if you use a CMS for example, there are lots of plugins which might help you, without getting to deep. Or you can use some "external" services for newsletters and stuff. They offer their own code, JS, PHP and others, you can implement.

I've not found a reference anywhere that the AK-47 is a copy of StG-44. The outward look is kinda pointless. What matters in a rifle are all of the inner components. However, I can find only anecdotal references like https://www.forgottenweapons.com/ak-and-stg-kissing-cousins/
Bridging this gap is the holy grail of web hosting. One can do a lot from static sites nowadays. There are lots of third party services that provide generic form backends, they’ll be posting here in no time.

My question is; if you can build it, why not take the and get a shared hosting account and write the php yourself? Is OP able to list the obstacles?

The author may not know Google Podcasts doesn't work the way any other podcast app does. Most apps like iTunes just are feed aggregators which facilitate downloading from a server of your choice. No terms are attached to being available in a given podcast app. Except for Google Podcasts, which requires you give Google an irrevocable worldwide license to your content and lets them host it themselves. Unlike almost every other podcast app, users can't add RSS feeds to Google Podcasts themselves, it's not the BBC which has broken well understood conventions and open standards of podcasting.

My guess is BBC has an issue with Google Podcasts' terms.
Interesting paper. They say that markets fail to bring forward some types of "reinstating" AI and they give three examples, education being one. But I think otherwise when it comes to education AI. Lots of people are trying to develop that kind of thing, an AI that assesses and tailors to individual learners' needs. And I think so many are trying to do that because they recognize what a huge market there will be if they can deliver results. I think the market will yield that one. Then they mention healtcare, which is such a quagmire of regulations and legislatively enabled special interest groups that how can one call that a market. If it really was a market it would already look very different than it does now and might even incentivize the "right kind of AI".
You seem to gloss over what your forms are doing. Do you _need_ a server side language like PHP? Or can you get away with jQuery?
Or, more importantly, how does key exchange work? You can’t really claim to be totally anonymous without explaining these details.
Seems like there is a "password" required to encrypt/decrypt but the app's descriptions says:

> - No Sign Up / Log In / Usernames / Passwords.

So I'm guessing this password is stored server-side and the passwords are associated to device ids.

Seems like it would read your contacts and then send them to their servers too, not a fan of doing that personally.

I'm not sure why the app mentions encryption/security as it seems far from being the main point of the app.

Convergent Evolution
It seems strange to me to see a discussion like this conducted in terms of only one principle.

For example, consider how would we know if someone consented to being killed? And how could a consent structure for it be abused? This is where we see it bump against another important principle, that we may not deprive another person of their life without due process of law.
“People does not fight harmful ads for now“ does not mean coinhive should be added to web sites without users’ consensus.

And It’s more harmful than ads as users know explicitly whether there are ads on web sites and have a choice to not visit them anymore. But silently mining without warning users of that is worse.

I've found that it's easy to zone out if I'm just typing exactly what's on the page in front of me. Following along but in a different language can keep you more engaged and think more about what's going on.

If you don’t want to install any frameworks, just use PHP in the way it was originally meant to be used.

When someone POST a form, you can use the $_POST superglobal to extract all of that information from the submitted form.

Then, you can store that information in the $_SESSION superglobal.

Lastly, when the user visits a page with the same or similar form entries, you can actually “echo” their own answers from a previous page into the form.

This is baby’s first PHP here, not really production grade, but still quite useful.
I count those as "outstanding and unsafe" (as they happened).
Don't lose sight of the simple fact that in git, a branch is just a name. In the end, it's all about commit(ish)s.
You might want to look into Laravel (https://laravel.com/). It has a lot of stuff you won't need, but it's also has a very intuitive API, is well documented and will lead you down a route of best practices for this kind of website. I've found that server-rendered websites using Laravel are pleasingly simple.

See https://laravel.com/docs/5.8/blade for specific documentation on templates and forms, although I would recommend a more comprehensive look through the documentation, or working through a tutorial.

jquery and turbolinks. If you want to go further than that I'd look at VueJS, which doesn't require your site be an SPA but gives you DOM bindings. Sound like you're just looking for the former though.
Would be really nice if this can be done to more countries. I'm interested to know how things look in the whole EU.
Not needed. They already know how to use special repo branches for special things. See e.g. gh-pages and yourproject.wiki.git. They could _trivially_ have yourproject.issues.git etc, except that not doing that gives them a competitive moat making it harder to migrate away.

I'm seeing people here chastising the OP for not fully knowing what he was getting into. But in all the excitement about the new free plan with private repos in January, GitHub failed to highlight other differences between the new free plan and the rebranded Pro plan.

Is Data Science the Inevitable Cultivation?
What I like to use is:

- Blink shell
- hooked to a tmux session
- connected with Mosh
- over a ZeroTier network
- to a UNIX machine in the cloud or at home (Linux, macOS, whatever).

The effect is a really snappy and powerful shell in a full UNIX system that stays up and connected even though your connection is dropped or moves from wifi to cellular, and your networks still stay closed and secure.

It's not the same as running Linux on the phone. However, in some respects it's better. It's trivially easy to move the session to another device (phone/tablet, or computer), and you don't need to use the phone's battery for processing. And you can summon a ton of computing power if you need to.

Blink shell, an iOS terminal emulator: https://www.blink.sh

tmux is like screen. It's a bit arcane at first but it's worth it. (Mouse scrollback is recommended. It works inside blink.) Introduction: https://hackernoon.com/a-gentle-introduction-to-tmux-8d784c4...

mosh enhances ssh and adds roaming, supports intermittent connectivity, and cuts perceived lag a lot by being smarter about the interface vs. the network roundtrip. (It works kind of like a online game engine that predicts network events). https://mosh.org

ZeroTier is an open-source secure virtual network layer that's good at hole punching so you can just have the real network completely walled off: https://www.zerotier.com/
The takeaway seems to be more about degrees of complexity than any particular structural component taking precedence.
It also doesn't come with pager duty, stack ranking, working weekends, working long hours during the week, meetings, constant rush to meet deadlines, bad managers, bad coworkers.

This, and many other concepts based on "vetting" news assumes that the audience cares. A significant portion of the audience does not care, and is instead looking for news that validates their worldview, and furthers their (and their chosen political party's) goals. So basically these services will cannibalize the part of the audience that does care about truth, turning people against each other over marginally skewed articles. Meanwhile, the other site is happy to share falsehoods, because it helps them ... win.
Yeah, my pre-coffee brain definitely did not parse that headline correctly. The HN headline is pretty faithful to the original article's, but the article's headline is poorly worded.

> The US didn’t overthrow the Mossadegh gov’t in a coup.

On the contrary:

In August 2013, sixty years afterward, the U.S. government formally acknowledged the U.S. role in the coup by releasing a bulk of previously classified government documents that show it was in charge of both the planning and the execution of the coup, including the bribing of Iranian politicians, security and army high-ranking officials, as well as pro-coup propaganda. The CIA is quoted acknowledging the coup was carried out "under CIA direction" and "as an act of U.S. foreign policy, conceived and approved at the highest levels of government".

If they sold'em with XT-IDE inside, I was probably unfortunate to have on of those. Still beat swapping floppies. Thanks to the HDD I could compile C programs without switching floppies all the time. IIRC I had the compiler and the headers on one floppy and the linker etc on another. Eventually I made DICE (Matt Dillon yo!) fit on one floppy. Or was it an early Lattice C?? Can't remember.:-P By that time I had bought a 486SX for uni, so I reluctantly used Turbo C instead. Turbo C was just too good to pass up...
How is Razer's customer service these days? I considered their laptops in the past but was put off by the poor customer service. As much as I think Apple need to fix the MBP, their customer service is some of the best I've seen (albeit not perfect) for an electronics company.
I agree - this article was not clickbait. The content delivered on the title.

Piquing your interest with the title is just good headline-writing. It only becomes clickbait when the title is a cynical perversion of the content.
> That even happened on RT for the Captain Marvel movie because of the female heroine, many "snowflakes" got offended and gave a movie that wasn't even out yet bad ratings.

Alternatively, they were using the "Want to See" feature on Rotten Tomatoes exactly as it was intended to be used. People didn't like aspects of the marketing campaign for Captain Marvel and made their opinions known using a tool Rotten Tomatoes provided specifically for that purpose.

There are many female-led films listed on Rotten Tomatoes that have very high approval fan ratings. By dismissing the public reaction to Captain Marvel merely as trolling by snowflakes, you're actually proving the point many people on this thread are making about partisanship and tribalism in news reporting.
It seems like Firebase could be useful.
Wordpress is your default option, although it may be overkill if you’re just doing some simple forms. It’s hard to say beyond that since you don’t provide enough information about your actual needs. I suggest sitting down with a local expert to better clarify your needs and a proper solution.
You can do a surprising amount of handy things by just using <?php include "stuff.php"; ?> blocks to grab chunks of other files, without making something a "PHP site" in a traditional sense.

You just have to be really careful particularly with any data input fields you have when you roll your own code, as that's pretty much the primary assault vector for exploiting PHP websites.
If you're already using Netlify, why not use their forms feature? It seems very easy to use: https://www.netlify.com/docs/form-handling/

Exactly. This is why I can't stand blackjack, but love craps. Craps is very little 'work' to have better odds than most other games. Plus it's social, and active (rolling dice, chatting, moving chips).
