Here we are in the "age of information" and there is still no way to distinguish between the shill and/or troll and the genuine information provider. Glorious.

This age of electronics and logic and AI should have been able to provide a reasonable benefit to consumers at the very bottom. Instead, corporations have found new ways to rig things, impersonate people, and generally be dishonest about the quality and effectiveness of their offerings.
Oh that's great, thanks. I looked at the docs but didn't find anything.
Note three things about the statement. It's not said in the first-person about their subjective preference but tout court. They are not speaking about particular veggie burgers, or the veggie burgers they happened to have tried, but about 'veggie burgers'. And their judgement is categorical, not one of degree.

I simply doubt that any such statement is justified. In my experience vegetarianism evokes a great deal of cultural small-mindedness. That is simply an empirical observation. So it was my best guess - given that the statement was so absurd, for the three reasons above - for what was going on here. You'll notice I didn't say that they were small-minded, I said that their statement read as such.

As for the guidelines. I think you should generally assume good faith. But if you see someone express a common prejudice it can also be helpful to call that out. I don't believe in the 'principle of charity' as its stated there. I think you should engage accurately with the arguments that your interlocutor presents, not with an alternative version of it.
I know of it. I still plan to go to a suitable university after the year, so I'm not sure it'd be suitable as it's also pretty expensive.

People did divorced or slacked at work over too much "football and drinking with friends". And too much of both indeed prevented people to reach their potential.

It is not like games would be special in impact when you do it too much. What is special is that most people cant play football that much due to physical limitations.

So when book reading has the same addictive quality that makes one play till night regularly or that makes you yell at kids because they interrupted your play, people complain all the same. It just happen less often with books and movies, because of their shorter length and easier way to space out sessions.

Can some front-enders and UX devs answer these questions (this isn't a criticism - genuine datamining here):

1. How are your javascript test suits organised? Do you measure code coverage the same way?

2. Are there any standardised terms that you can use to convey stylistic concepts to other (front end)devs (excluding framework specific terms and html elements)? i.e. Software Design Patterns for code

3. Do you personally feel your field is more artistic or rigorous?

4. Do you personally think it should be artistic or rigorous?

5. (For reference) What is your job title?

6. Would you say you work more closely with the Tech Lead (or organisational equivalent) or Artistic Director (or organisational equivalent)?

7. What is your direct report's job title?

8. Are you able to suggest/implement global style changes on the basis of your own authority?

9. Do you maintain/contribute to any (front-end dev) documentation?

I think the nail in the coffin for me was lack of support for Linux (this was years ago). I know that Linux is a tiny subset of their potential users, but I needed my notes to be everywhere, not just on the main platforms.

Ironically, I'm not using Linux as much now, but going back to Evernote was unappealing. I'm now using a combination of Bullet Journaling and Notion.
Ok, so basically you're saying that one can own arbitrary bits of phase space?

But does this really give you non-conservation? Doesn't your remark just clarify that non-conservation comes from ignoring most of the space of possible ownership until someone bothers to go there?

I mean, there is clearly a difference between the value of (sensible) financial derivatives and the value of the death star to the imperial court in the Star wars universe.

So the connection to physical reality clearly matters somehow.

Googling "detect incognito stackoverflow" finds a question answered "The FileSystem API is disabled in incognito mode."
Serious question though: has anyone here ever used the notifications for anything other than web based IM (slack, whatsapp)?

I think the use case for legit notifications is very small, thus the UI should be an opt-in, rather than an intrusive pop-up.

I never understood why browser makers gave it such a prominent UI, and of course in this attention seeking market it was bound to be abused. The new UI that Firefox is suggesting in the article is good, this should have been like this from the first day. I hope other browser vendors quickly follow.
That and the Mac and Windows versions had functionality that didn't work in the web or Android versions. So you could read notes that others sent you.

The web version would also reasonably regularly save 100 versions of the same note. Support queries on this got a shrug response and "yeah don't use the web client".

So I switched how I do notes and ditched Evernote.
If I remember correctly, Cloudflare assigns different IPs to different sites, so you can use blocking by IP, but of course in this case you will also block other sites using the same Cloudflare server.

I have also written how the site can try to bypass the blocking: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19552689
You don't need pump storage when you have 60% hydro, all you need is to change the rate of production. When the sun shines so the shops run out of sunscreen and facebook explodes with complaints you go down to 20% hydro, when the situation is the opposite and facebook explodes with complaints, you go up to 100% hydro (both numbers totally fudged of course).
Thank you for clarifying. There is a big difference between supporting something, and stopping it from happening.

It's Cloudflare's service, and of course entirely Cloudflare's decision how it is permitted used. I just hope that, in the future, it will be allowed (but not necessarily *supported) to use stock clients rather than desktop apps (which many of us Linux people would dislike). :)

Good luck with the massive deployment!
Not Even Wrong 2.0
I don't understand why many people here seems to agree blocking is a bad thing. If some content is illegal in the country, isn't it normal that the state is enforcing the law? I'm mean that's one of the things it is supposed to do I believe

On the other hand, I understand disagreements with the law exist, but that's a normal thing and we (in France) are still able to vote for some parties with different point of view on copyright, so I'm not sure why some people are speaking of "authoritarian" or "censorship"
Could you provide some source/citation from where you came to this conclusion that IN/PK have low average IQ.
> This is very surprising for a language that targets somewhat high performance.

> Looks like it's a 5-10% performance hit, but makes it easier to provide good backtrace information

Very interesting indeed.

Well, forcing your compiler to start passing parameters via stack is pretty
simple and it's not so uncommon.

And probably (and maybe) the Go team just wanted to make things simple.
Otherwise they would need to have two parameter passing implementations
and sometimes even use a mixed one - when platform does not have enough
registers (e.g. 6 CPU registers and a function which takes 6+ params),
so some parameters would be passed via registers, some via stack; or
maybe all of them via stack. And so on. So I am byuing the "good backtrace"
point.

For example, suppose I have a silly logging function my_func() [C code],
which takes 8 params:

__attribute__ ((noinline))
void my_func(const char *module, const char *func, const char *level,
int line, int B, int C,
const char *app, const char *session)
{
printf("%s:%s:%s:%d %d %s %s\n", module, func, level,
line, B + C, app, session);
}

int main()
{
my_func("core", __func__, "error", 1, 2, 3, "a.out", "dummy");
return 0;
}

Let's compile it with gcc (-O2) for ARM and let's take a look at what
main() does:

000103d8 <main>:
103d8: e52de004 push {lr} ; (str lr, [sp, #-4]!)

1042c: e28dd014 add sp, sp, #20
10430: e49df004 pop {pc} ; (ldr pc, [sp], #4)

Looks like a bunch of stores to stack ptr: + 0 bytes; + 4 bytes; + 8 bytes; + 12 bytes.

[Edit: should have passed __LINE__ instead of hardcoded 1, but that doesn't change the assembly.]

People in this thread keep claiming that because it is public domain, they can do whatever they want with it including license it, which is not true. They can certainly sell it, but a license is a legal instrument that grants usage rights, and Getty cannot grant such rights. To claim to do so is fraud.

Is that settled in a court of law?

It isn't at all obvious to me that is the case.

The linked article explicitly disagrees with that interpretation - because Getty doesn't make any claim what the license is: Getty and/or Getty US offers to let the user “Purchase a license” to a NASA photo of Saturn for $499.00 with “standard editorial rights”

Techdirt makes the point: it can't sell "copyright licenses," as that is a misrepresentation over the rights that Getty Images has -- but if it wants to try to get people to pay for stuff that is otherwise available for free, that's Getty's prerogative. and that seems a reasonable interpretation.

Indeed and other interpretation would imply some kind of negative copyright exists over the work (because it is restricting what you can do with it), and elsewhere in this thread it is pointed out that there is precedent for avoiding that[1]
No, the OP meant it the other way around. Both channels were copyright striked multiple times by trolls. Both Cody and Dave (eevblog) did multiple videos on it explaining the situation.

Personal anecdote: During a bad depressive time I saw a psychiatrist who enthusiastically prescribed serious antidepressant medications like they were M&M's. One to lift me up, one to help me sleep, one to take the edge off, one just in case an anxious episode occurred during the day, etc, etc. That kind of thing. And he said to me "There is still nothing I can prescribe you that is as effective as exercise."

Specifically, heavy weights.

History repeats itself. So many times a group of people on earth thought they were alone (a tribe, a region, an island, a continent), they were wrong. Earth is our current island, scale it up.

One of the many things that really reemphasizes how limited remote technology such as probes and rovers really are. As the article mentions this has been known about for about 6 years. Having rovers do what they were designed to do is very difficult, having them try to explore previously unknown phenomena is generally just not really possible.

Consider for instance water on the moon. When was this discovery finally confirmed once and for all? It didn't happen until 2009! [1] And the discovery of water-ice only happened in 2018. These are 'obvious' surface level characteristics, yet we're only confirming them some 60 years after our brief dalliance with manned exploration.

It's incredible to think about all the things that we've yet to discover but eventually will once we start getting indefinite bases setup across various destinations.

I'm not just comparing the Shinkansen. I'm comparing the whole Japanese network in its entirety. It isn't just a fish-grate network. It expands deep into the rural areas where it's highly integrated. Indeed they have multiple forms of trains and railways optimized for each purpose.

If you take the train in Japan you might pass through numerous operators and types of railways. It's why it's so complicated to buy a ticket there.

I'm comparing rail networks with rail networks and different forms of ownership. Why wouldn't I be allowed to make that comparison?

i personally never had one but when asked for my suggestions i generally suggest something from the thinkpad range, Theyre robust, have an excellent warranty program and great keyboards. which model depends on exactly what you want, the X1C for portability and the X1E or P1 for a larger system with more grunt and onboard GPU, need more power still? the P52 or P72.

if you dont want to go the thinkpad route id start looking at the Dell XPS. Personally im running an X1C 6th gen and a P52s

The concept of Natural Law was an important part of enlightenment legal thinking. When the Declaration of Independence invokes the 'Laws of Nature', it's authors would certainly have been aware of and intentionally referencing contemporary thinking on the subject to justify the declaration.

SimplePay | Ruby on Rails Developers | Cape Town, South Africa | REMOTE

The story (skip this paragraph if you don't like stories in your job posts): I'm the founder of this company, and a developer myself. Almost a year ago, I left South Africa to move to Singapore. I used to be quite averse to the idea of remote workers, but seeing as just about everyone in our Cape Town office would be remote from my perspective, I decided that the company needed to focus on hiring for remote. It's been a good experience so far!

SimplePay is online payroll software for South Africa, Ireland, Singapore and Hong Kong. Our software lets thousands of small business owners (and their accountants) run their payrolls without headaches, so they can focus on the challenge of building their businesses. You can read more about us here: https://www.simplepay.co.za/about

We've been profitable for many years and have never had the need to raise capital. You'll be building on a stable platform, with a strong team.

Do you believe most SPAs are a pile of steaming crap, but wouldn't mind digging into Vue.js for pages that will benefit from the increased interactivity? Do you laugh when people give up the power of PostgreSQL in favour of data stores that don't offer any benefits for their use case? If so, you may fit in well with our mindset.

Experience: Due to our full pipeline, we can only hire developers who have a few years of Rails experience at this time, or polyglots who at least know Ruby. Previous experience with remote work would be a bonus - we need people who understand the challenges and can share what they've learnt.

Location: GMT+1 to GMT+8. (Currently we have developers in South Africa, India, Lebanon and myself Singapore)

Salary: $30k - $60k

Please mail careers@simplepay.co.za and put "Hacker News" somewhere in the subject. I look forward to transforming the company to being more remote-friendly.
