I'm sorry for your bad experiences with the Palemoon guys. You are obviously not who this software is meant for.

I don't need or want sandboxing for my extensions -- I can take care of my own sandboxing external to the browser profile instance. And I don't want it either, because it makes them less flexible and powerful. XUL based extensions turn my browser into a power tool, Chrome is a toy.

I don't know why you are upset, because the vast majority of the Internet agrees with you. Most people are happy to have Google control their web browsing experience. Why do you engage with them if they make you so upset?
Why are you threatened by a small group of users who want a browser their own way?

As for the HSTS thing, I'm sorry nobody explained that, I'd be happy to elaborate a bit more for you. My computer belongs to me, and I get to decide what runs on it. I can choose to use Palemoon how I want to. Not implementing HSTS according to the RFC is harming nobody except potentially myself. The way HSTS is written is self serving for the powers that be. It reenforces the SSL certificate infrastructure, and takes away user choice in the name of "security". For practical reasons, being able to disable HSTS is important for development. And even without Palemoon, there are still plenty of ways to bypass HSTS. All Palemoon is doing is saving users time.

Besides, Google, Apple, Facebook and Microsoft happily trample on the RFCs when it's convenient for them. Chrome itself was infamous for this when it first came out. I remember seeing Chrome users clobbering webservers and violating protocol to get slightly more speed. Of course, Chrome now sets the standards.

I have to disagree with your characterization of Palemoon users as fascists.

If you don't like Palemoon, then you are more than welcome to not use it and leave the community alone. The Palemoon community represents a dying breed. Soon enough, most hardware will be forced to use their browser, and will only be permitted to go to websites that they approve of. And mandatory DRM. Mozilla also loves DRM.

Anyway, if you have any more questions I'd be happy to answer.
> The FCC rules for wireless charging devices like AirPower are quite strict, and limit exposure to 20 cm (8 in) above the device to 50 mW/cm^2.

Who's to say that 50 mW/cm^2 is the right field strength limit? Remember when we couldn't use cell phones on airplanes during takeoff because of the theoretical possibility that something, somewhere might interfere? As it turns out, there was no interference problem, cell phones were perfectly safe to use in that environment, and the precautionary ban just stalled progress without improving anybody's safety.

Maybe we're in the same situation here. I'd like to know what specific problem an EM field of the strength AirPower produced would cause in the real world. It's possible that we're weighing "backward compatibility" with existing EM-sensitive devices too heavily relative to technological progress.
Any non-trivial C++ program typically uses the STL or a similar library, which requires the full expressiveness of C++ to be implemented.

So, no, I don't think you have done even a tiny fraction of what C++ entails.
With a cable, you have to put your phone in a place AND put something in a place in your phone.

With a mat, you only have to put your phone in a place.

Obviously the latter is life changing. ;)

Seriously, however marginal, it is arguably a gain, and ... marginal gains can be kindof nice if they don't force some other annoying tradeoff. For me that'd include an appreciable cost higher than the cost of a long-lasting cable, but YMMV.
Honestly, this really doesn't matter.

If there was problematic content,

a. Do you really think they would raise suspicion by deleting all old posts or just silently delete specific posts? If I we're a big CEO the internet had a fairly negative opinion of, I would assume that somebody has the old content archived.

b. Do we really need to raise a twitter storm for every public figure that did something controversial 10 years ago?

This made a lot (more) sense when even corded charging was kind of slow and meant that the use time to charge time was pretty bad; ~2 hours to charge: ~12 hours to use gives an optimistic 6 use/charge time ratio, but now that fast charging and USB-C power deliver devices can charge in ~30 minutes and last ~20 hours that gives a use/charge ratio of 40. Given that if I have to leave my phone on a wireless charger for much longer; I greatly increase the risk that I'm picking up an undercharged phone.

But like in your use case, it's a nice to have thing that provides standby charging and can prevent your phone from at least loosing power over the day. Honestly, I think the best solution would be a USB-C dock so that you would have the convienience of wireless with the fast speed (and PC connection potentionally) of a wired connection.

Constantly recharging your phone is suppose to reduce your battery’s max capacity over time I.e your battery lasts less

Apple ships GPL v2 software, but they don't ship any GPL v3 software.

I'm uncertain if it's the patent clause or the fact that apple prevents you from modifying and running changed software (such as on the iphone).

What's funny is that I think they are technicall in violation of the GPL (their modifications to the GPL v2 bash are not entirely distributed)

> Calling the police on someone in the US is a specific intent to kill, thus murder.

It may be evidence from which intent might be inferred, but on its own without additional evidence it is probably not strong enough to support intent beyond a reasonable doubt.

> You know what's likely to happen and you make that call.

That's not, in and of itself, intent. Intent means it's your goal, not merely something you know is a likely effect and accept.

> That's murder.

Sure, but absent an actual goal of killing, it's murder of the depraved indifference type, which is generally second degree, not the intent to kill type, which is first degree. (Though if the false report itself is a felony, it's murder of the felony murder type, which is usually first degree.)
That card is still accepted anywhere Amex is accepted. But yes, if you want to cover vendors who don't accept Apple/Google Pay or Amex, then you would need to carry multiple cards.
IFixit has a good article on it. Basically they couldn't get it to pass wireless emissions standards the way they wanted to do it (put your phone anywhere on the pad to charge not, not directly on the circle, etc).
The only one misleading here is you.
> The only “feature” is seeing their charge on your phone

FWIW there are many Bluetooth headphones that show their charge on your phone, it's a standard Bluetooth feature.
Have a little respect here too. Parent is giving free advice to the author. Up to him to take it or not. And from all these defensive comments, you need to calm down. People are giving geniune criticism. God knows why you are being so defensive.
Does this advice apply to a new developer who wants to work for a startup or established dotcom later?

Or does it assume that they'll either want to stay in consulting long-term, or eventually move to a past client?

My recent experience is that most startups and established dotcoms don't know what to make of consulting on a resume, and they mostly want to see FAANG and some of this year's preferred frameworks.
Thanks for your detailed reply. These are all good points. I need constant reminders about perfectionism and I like that quote.
Agreed. TGM is probably my favorite Tetris game; once you get used to the rotation it feels very natural without needing to go through the wall kick gymnastics of modern guideline Tetris. Sadly it seems Arika is either not able or not willing to produce more TGM games using their own ruleset. The guideline Tetris ruleset feels ass backwards in comparison, but I guess it really doesn't matter too much.

I never quite hit GM in any TGM game anyways; as fun as it was, I definitely had trouble keeping a clean stack at high speeds.
Oops.

Yeah, here it does seem security theater.

But still, it was a good writeup. I mean, dropbear and all.

I have no clue why they're using VPS, after all that. I mean, if they're a real business, they ought to just setup a server, and ship it to Iceland. If the want the ease of VPS, it's easy to do secure KVM in a FDE server. Even with Docker containers within KVM, if you like.
I support STL and even plan to support Boost.
They make wireless chargers in a dock form. I love it - same interactivity as a dock but easy to pick up and go.

I can get an Amazon Basic's brand USB-C cable for $4.17 per meter. Apple sells theirs for $19 per meter.

Is Apple selling these cables at cost, or are they making a profit from them? Amazon isn't a brand I trust either, but from the magnitude of that difference I'm pretty sure Apple is making a tidy profit on these cables. I don't think Apple is a trillion dollar company because of cable sales, but from where I sit it sure seems like Apple is a company that loves nickel and diming people even though they don't need to.

It's not "I want the term to be yearly" it's "I would pay for permanent upgrades so they could still get money from me repeatedly without a subscription model"

Subscriptions are fine as an offer for software that's getting significant new features all the time. But a password manager is the kind of code that barely needs any devs to keep going once it's already in a good state. And it's the kind of code where integrating an online killswitch is extremely dangerous. There's good reason to stay away from that combination.
I remember being in Silicon Valley in 1994 and people had the same sentiments.

Apple's plan was to let you place it anywhere on the mat, not on the very small charging sweet-spot.

Worth the huge premium it would've sold for? Probably not for a good deal of people, but it would've sold.
Look into Purism Librem 5 with PureOS. They pushed release back to Q3 but it's a very interesting project.

Wireless charging is not without costs. One of the costs is that coil heating the article talks about is not limited to the charger, the phone coil also heats up. And being usually stuck to the battery, the already stressed battery (by the charging) is also stressed by the additional coil heat - not good for the non-replaceable battery. I understand that phones (even $1000 ones) are disposable these days, but this makes them even more short-lived.
> I think the initial presumption, was that no one would be such a douchebag as to make such crank calls. In today's world, this is obviously a bad assumption.

It's always been a bad assumption; deliberate harm up to and including murder by deliberate false report to legal authorities is probably as old as legal authorities, and if your jurisdiction has a crime of false reporting (and it's pretty much guaranteed that it does) it's because the government is very much aware that this is a thing.

If police response procedures don't account for that, it's not because they've assumed it doesn't happen, it's because they've assumed that that when it happens they will have someone else ready at hand to blame for ant adverse effects, so that they have no need to mitigate them.
> Which for charging phones is a small amount until you think of every person on the planet charging their phone every day.

It is a small amount of power though.

There are about 4.68 billion mobile phone users; let's assume each has one phone. Let's be conservative and assume that all these phones have high-end battery packs, on the order of 4,000 mAh. Let's be even more conservative and assume each phone is used to depletion and recharged each day. Let's assume a voltage of 4V, so we end up with 2.7e14 joules used recharging mobile phones per day. In 2014 (so conservative, for 2019), human civilization produced 23,816 terrawatt-hours of electricity, or about 8.6e19 joules per year or 2.6e17 joules per day. (Let's also assume electricity production and consumption are equal.) Even under this very conservative estimate, cell phones charging accounts for 0.115% of world electricity consumption. Increasing that figure by 40% is negligible.
Just wanted to say that if you really made a new programming language, don't let perfectionism or other's requests get in the way of publishing it.

Even if it is half done and it doesn't fill many of the claims you might have made, push it online to github when the day comes. Inevitably some people will throw stones at you for not meeting their expectations and even you might be harsh on yourself but still push it online. There will be some of us who will be supportive and try to help the project according to your vision regardless if it is launched full of bugs, incomplete and with problematic or missing features.

Also, if the language never really existed and it was a fluke, I personally forgive you in advance, hope you find peace and wish you the best in life.
My problem is that every charging cable I get seems to fail eventually. Either the charging port in the phone gets loose, filled with lint, or the cable mysteriously stops working. Even expensive Ankers. Meanwhile my no-name QI charger that I bought for my LG G3 like 5 years ago is still working perfectly. No parts to loosen or clog.

It really is a matter of convenience. Micro-USB is so annoying because of the dexterity needed to plug it in, lightning and USB C are much better because you don’t have to think about the orientation, wireless is better than that because you don’t have to attach any wires.
Pale Moon's JavaScript support was atrocious last time I checked, indicating that it's not actually keeping pace with Mozilla. I was developing a user script at the time and had to ask a user to stop using what amounts to a copy of Firefox that's several years past it's expiry.

Who knows what kind of issues are lingering around? Given that Pale Moon users advertise themselves as power users they might make quite a valuable target.
Your comment made me feel like HN needs a “give gold” system. Proceeds could go to funding startups =)
I disagree. And here are reasons.

1. It settles a question of whether the dinosaurs were already gone.

2. It let's us know what time of year the impact was.

3. We are literally seeing everything in that ecosystem. It is very, very rare to get a fossil record that shows us a whole ecosystem. (The best known example of mass fossils, tar pits, are very heavily biased towards scavengers. Mudslides will preserve a complete ecosystem, but usually not with the same quantity and quality as this one.)

4. For species after species you have complete preservation. Including soft tissue, body shape, skin, and so on.

5. He found tektites in amber. That is, we have pieces of the meteorite preserved in a substance that would preserve their chemical makeup. Once analyzed this will give us direct information about the meteorite that killed the dinosaurs that we could not have received any other way. For example we could learn whether it was a comet from the Oort cloud versus an asteroid from the inner solar system.

6. The quality of preservation is such that we not only can identify dinosaur feathers, we can identify where on the body those specific feathers came from.

7. The quality of soft tissue preservation is such that we can identify the diet that some of the animals ate.

8. The fact that the ammonite shell was initially pink upon being excavated suggests that we may be able to learn about the color of some of these things. Evidence of color is very hard to come by.

If the story holds up, this site is important for a lot of reasons beyond adding to the evidence for a meteorite wiping out the dinosaurs. And if this is a partial list that is obvious now, I am sure that the list will get much, much longer.
It could be a custom. However, as a Chinese, my feeling is that the custom arises from the de facto 69x (x could be 5, 6 or 7) schedule of Chinese high schools, which is even harsher than that of Chinese companies.
Rationality, and specifically the exercise of it, rationalization, is a double edged sword. Smart people can rationalize their way into horrible things. An act being rational alone does not magically elevate it to the status of being correct, or as an . Like an argument, you can have valid reasoning, but if that reasoning is from a flawed premise, the course of action cannot be deemed to be sound.

The type certification could have been a non-issue with proper communication. That didn't happen because someone at Boeing made a terrible call, and persists in asserting they've done nothing wrong, when the fact of the matter is that the error is so obvious in it's nature, that the rest of the world is capable of piecing the failure together even without having seen the actual data, which as it comes out, proves to only be reinforcing the case against Boeing.

Maybe it isn't enough to stand up in a court of law...yet. Everything that has been publicized thus far, however, paints a picture where criminal negligence is looking more and more like a foregone conclusion.

In short, rationality be damned. Someone made the irrational decision that the upside of getting to market sooner by cutting corners was worth risking 300+ innocent lives. People who put their faith in Boeing that they did their due diligence as required by law of executive and PE alike.

I agree with you ReptileMan. It isn't somehow beyond the human mind. Only a human being would put a financial windfall ahead of ensuring the safety of eventual passengers, have the decision blow up in their faces, then dig in and insist they did nothing wrong despite evidence to the contrary.

The corporation will be fine if they can manage to maintain goodwill. I don't envy those involved with approving the MAX however.

That's not a lecture, that's a bit of hard-earned advice right there. Anyone who has embarked on a language project for the first time (as the author is doing now) learns this one way or another. You get some toy programs compiling and you think "great! Almost done, now just to implement borrow checking" and 16 months later you have to squint to see the progress you've made. That's just the reality of it.
> From what I understand, many people who are potential targets of swatting (high profile live streamers, etc) notify their local PD. I'm assuming following that, if a call comes in, the PD will take a more relaxed approach.

I'm assuming that local PDs probably treat people calling them and saying “I’m totally not a criminal but people are likely to falsely claim I'm not only a criminal but one engaged in the kind of dangerous crimes that would justify a SWAT response”, without any supporting evidence that there are particular people likely to falsely target the particular person with that kind of action as an indication that the person is more likely than average to be a dangerous criminal.
It used to be, though, that if people were defining you by something you did years ago, and you didn't want this, you could move to another town far enough way that there wasn't much social overlap between people in your new and old towns.

Unless what you were trying to get away from was a fairly serious crime, there was a good chance the new people in your life wouldn't find out about it unless you told them about it.

Now the old stuff is on the internet, and you can be stuck with it unless you go to more extreme lengths like changing your name.

A major renovation like this on a starter home would likely trigger a reassessment.
That's foolish to believe that.

Soviet Russia in the 80s was falling apart after economic stagnation, then the perestroika and glasnost would make it open to critic communism itself, even some events like Chernobyl contributed to some extent.

You wouldn't have even dreamed to make Soviet Russia regime fall with "social pressure" under Stalin.

How was your lockup agreement phrased?

If it's something like this one (https://blog.wealthfront.com/post-ipo-dilemma-hedging-stock/), where you have clauses like " enter into any swap or other agreement that transfers, in whole or in part, any of the economic consequences of ownership of the Common Stock or such other securities" exist, I agree using as loan collateral is pushing the limits, if not past it.

Many companies have much simpler language. Mine was just "will not sell or otherwise dispose of shares", which permits not only loans, but more powerful techniques like hedging.
