I walked through SoMa every day on my way to work (Financial District) for a year, and I saw more poop (and needles) on those walks than I have the rest of my life combined.

I’ve lived most of my life in Philly, FWIW. Not exactly a bastion of cleanliness.
That surprised me too, but, on second thought, elite athletic training is all about passing limits that apply to everyone else. It's not that weird that some of the unintended consequences are also unheard of in the general population.
It's something that I definitely plan to add. There's even an open issue about it! https://github.com/projectfluent/fluent.js/issues/185

Blockchains Meet Telecommunications: Opportunity, Risk, or a Necessity?
> Would you mind explaining why?

Not at all. Simple. Always (until now at least) a prejudice against women when positions have limited numbers to fill. And of course, the whole area of sport is biaised against women, for instance, for her sport there is still no real tour de france for women in cyclism, in 2019.
I also would like to reiterate that her context used to be different before - no judgements. As a competitive pro athlete, you are constant asked and in check with your body and/or emotions. There is also a greater sense of protection/support from the coaches and people involved. Whereas in the professional life, it is usually the opposite, managers are rarely willing to protect employee but extract results at their expense and coworkers couldn’t care less if you have a lower back ache, etc.

It is jungle and can be confusing/sad/demotivating to realize that your best is no longer at their best interest.

Yet, I find myself as developer still fortunate to have somewhat rational managers and the market condition still in our side mostly.
Most of which are webpages in a webview these days; mobile software is also much more skewed towards casual use due to device form factor. Here I'm focusing on more professional or even prosumer use cases.
Acquiring an HFT firm won't be worth it. Just sell it to the highest bidder. It's likely they will pay too much anyway (winner's curse) in which case Starlink just needs to sell it to the next highest bidder a year later. Much easier money (and less regulation) than trading yourself.
Can you point to a solution besides giving them shelter and just sort of tolerating it?

I mean, there’s different mechanisms for shelter — family, public housing, NGOs, etc, and we can talk about how to tweak those knobs as a culture — but I can’t think of what else cultures have done, besides various levels of housing people who just want to float.
Milking a cow requires that you keep the animal producing milk which means numerous pregnancies that produce either another dairy cow that has been born into milk slavery or a meat cow destined for the slaughter house after fattening. I'm not sure where people get the idea that milking hurts the cow as it doesn't. The machines are automated and some are ones the cows voluntarily enter for milking. If the cows don't milk regularly it can be painful for them.
It is for show, real work still gets done by solitary programmers.

Some people may have the capacity for pair programming but I doubt that it is sustainable. The conclusion of the famous Steele/Stallman session is this:

"My first thought afterward was: it was a great experience, very intense, and that I never wanted to do it again in my life."
I want to open new editor tab as a normal terminal.
There's a software called EVERYTHING works like magic. Pin it to taskbar / set hotkey.

Done right, beekeeping doesn’t stress bees very much at all and there is a feedback mechanism which trains the beekeeper very quickly if they are bad at it.

If the beekeeper works in hot, still weather, is careful and avoids the squashing of bees they can work without smoke or protective gear.
Even basic things like entrance size are not controlled in the wild, and having a beekeeper open the entrance or reduce it down is a huge advantage to a colony.
Managed bees can be looked after such that they live far longer than any feral colony will.
Diseases haven’t been shown to be spread to native bees in New Zealand, but competition for food sources is definitely going to be occurring.
Not just that, but a lot of organization use the setup to give good starting interface to data scientist who might know nothing about how to set up all the python packages...
You can grow into your early twenties or so. Unlikely to grow after that even if administered extra HGH (human growth hormone). At age 26 it seems very weird!
I've seen a few libraries that use a similar approach of parsing strings for pseudo-elements and then matching them with React elements to avoid splitting up messages, but I've always felt a lot of resistance towards adopting something like that because it means incurring the runtime cost of parsing a string for elements when you can easily have hundreds or thousands of messages being rendered at once. (Call it a premature optimization if you must, but I've been bitten enough times in the past for adopting libraries/approaches that scaled poorly performance wise and had to pay the cost in untimely, painful refactors.)

I feel there's a fundamental impedance mismatch here because we're defining messages as strings but the rest of our UI as React components. I described here a potentially different component-oriented approach as an attempt to get rid of this impedance mismatch: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19681129

I'd love to hear some thoughts on that approach from folks with more real-world experience working with i18n than I do (which is not a whole lot sadly, given the nature of the kinds of projects I've worked on in the past).
Architectural Visualization
They make it sound like it was because she was burning fewer calories and had some left over to grow, but I don't think it works that way. My uneducated guess is that it's a posture thing; he spine probably stretched or relaxed in some way after she stopped spending her entire waking life hunched over pedaling.
Great. Now you've created a perfect bubble for yourself.

The comparison with gettext is really interesting: https://github.com/projectfluent/fluent/wiki/Fluent-vs-gette...

Especially the advantages and drawbacks of using the source string as a message identifier, compared to a developer provided ID.

I'm wondering if fluent has something similar to xgettext, to extract the IDs from the source code?

Edit: Looks like there is some discussion about extraction here: https://github.com/projectfluent/fluent.js/wiki/React-Bindin...
She sounds like a person who would have a hard time fooling herself into taking the money. There's little if any good a professional athlete can do for regular person who wants to get/stay fit. She's good at taking health compromises to the extreme in exchange for performance. The exact opposite of what a regular person needs.
I'm looking at the news but I'm not reaching the same conclusions.

Public opinion heavily depends on context and evolves continually. Of course people are going to get behind the idea of preventing teen suicides, particularly when it seems that the solution might be preventing a huge, corporate giant do as it pleases.

Given the context of government censorship, which is happening and is likely to increase and become a larger problem in the future, and myriads of smaller, independent entities, people might react differently.

In any case, I don't think it's a good nor strong enough argument to abandon decentralization and anti-censorship efforts.

AI in Recruitment – 5 Fascinating Uses
Pair programming and mobbing are tools which may be appropriate for some situations.

Unfortunately when tool use is mandated without applying critical thinking, it often results in a great deal of waste. Mandated collaboration is also very susceptible to abuse as it typically provides an additional layer of obfuscation to shield low performing leechers.

High school group projects dialed up to 11.
Handing control of inflections etc. over to the translator rather than the developer is one of those great ideas that make so much sense when you first see them, that you start to wonder why we didn't do this before.

Great work by Mozilla; it's clear there's a lot of experience in the organisation feeding into the design of this system, and it's great that they're sharing it with the world.
I feel the opposite. Cross-platform toolkits such as Qt are "good enough" but not great. I wish more apps would be written using the native toolkit of the platform.
Fair enough but there is now zero need to load them from the AMP cache at all - this security model could allow News Carousel to load them from the originating site and still have access to the pre-rendering instant load magic/lies that AMP provides.

It feels a little dodgy to me this standard and a bit embrace extend but I'll see how it plays out and reserve judgement until we see this happening in the wild and how well it works. Personally I'd like to be informed in the browser chrome that it was being served via this mechanism rather than me visiting the original site.

Can you maybe see that people feel the browser is now lying to them about where the content is coming from?
Doesn't have to be pair programming. Just having two employees next to eachother working on different parts of the same project can make it a social workplace. If you aren't into it the other person will probably get the hint and not talk too much.

I guess this is the overtraining hampering growth I've heard about as a kid. Being an olympic level athlete makes a lot of hormones to whack.
It's needed if you use a subdomain for each user, like for example Tumblr does.
which is why saas review sites like TrustRadius, G2Cros, etc are useless. Almost every single product has at least a 4/5 rating and there are hardly any negative reviews. Which tells me only people who had a paid incentive left a review. Useless!
I'm the "free spirit" in my family. I regularly take months or even years off between jobs, travel a lot, and I've never wanted to own a home. Usually, I'm fortunate to earn enough between travel stints to pay my own way, but I still end up camping out with family for a few months every few years, after relocating from another state or country. If I didn't have family to lean on once in a while, I'd be forced to stick with jobs longer than I can usually stand to. I'm really not that far off from a situation like Twigg's, except that I can tolerate the office work a little better.
> As far as I'm aware, the first amendment doesn't protect the distribution of child abuse images, or allow harassment, etc.

Yes, but those are already illegal. That does not (or at the very least should not) mean politicians get to dictate what kind of technology is allowed. You cannot outlaw a technology (or require a backdoor) simply because it may not support deletion as a feature by virtue of being decentralized.
Great! It sounds like a very cool project to work on :)

> Sprint is the one doing the buying. Rather, Softbank.

It is a merger, but Softbank will get a smaller stake than DT. "The new company will be about two-thirds owned by T-Mobile shareholders and one-third Sprint, with board representation in line with economic ownership, one of the people said." https://www.cnbc.com/2018/04/27/t-mobile-sprint-merger-near-...

There is a decent picture about half way down in this article: https://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/t-mobile-sprint-merger/

Softbank is selling at a loss here according to earlier reports that they paid $21.6B for a 72% share in Sprint https://newsroom.sprint.com/sprint-and-softbank-announce-com... and the merger values Sprint at $26.5B, of which 72% would be $19B.
Politicizing and tribalizing an issue like this is the wrong approach. San Francisco has a serious problem and it’s plainly visible to anyone who visits.
Ah, thanks for the clarification, I did not know that.
I simply don't trust Google to not change the rules later.

What will stop Google from down-grading 2nd class URLs (ie, not hosted with google) to page 2 results?

It's effectively the same thing as having no AMP at all, yet they cleverly got everyone on board with this tactic.

Edit: I just skimmed through this... this looks _WORSE_ than having Google show their domain. This is some of the sneakiest most deceitful garbage I could have ever imagined.

Just no way. Need convincing? Look at the animated gif half way down:

You can have a civil debate, there is no way you are convincing a person their views are dogmatic and wrong by humiliation.

Why don’t you put your money where your mouth is, stand outside your office (or school) and hurtle abuse towards maligned groups, then in the evening fill your social media with more, a nice mix of racism, homophobia, religious intolerance, have a go at feminism ... etc
What stops you ? Or is your moral view only appropriate towards some people
Let's face it, reviews are useless. Even when they come from professional product critics. Those critics can be compromised (bribed) by big business just the same. A good example of this were reviews for 'Star Wars: The Last Jedi'; most reviews either against and in favor of that movie, by critic or causal viewer, were either fake or compromised.
This is very interesting. I've always wondered about how tech jobs require endless preening and showing-off for what are often not exactly jobs that require a lot of intellectual ability.

"You want a job in ML ? Yes, learn these absurd frameworks, publish a few papers in so-and-so conferences. Then we'll let you do some clickrate optimization for our website. "

No wonder, tech in the US has a diversity problem. Not everyone wants to be this way.
Weathered Sea Concrete Textures
Religion falls under Dogma (the greek word - δόγμα).

I believe in it because it is right, and it is right because I believe in it.

Religion doesn't follow logic. It follows belief.

It is like saying "the team that I support is better than the team that YOU support". Even if "my" team hasn't won anything for the last 100 years. Even if "your" team beats us 100-0 on every game. Just bad luck, the referee didn't see things clearly, the coach made a few untested last minute changes, the list is endless.

But the dogma remains. MY belief/idea is better then YOUR belief/idea, and that is that. And this is why many people (including me) are rejecting religion/"The Church". I want people to have the freedom to believe whatever they want, but I cannot get into a dialogue on religion.

> It's really weird that this extremist position ("any removal of content is censorship, and censorship is always bad") is so prominent on HN whenusers of products have shown, every single time, they they don't want it.

Why are you trying to paint this as an extremist position? Perhaps we are misunderstanding each other. Any removal of content is not censorship and that position is clearly nonsense. E.g. a commercial entity can do what it wants with its own property, including removing content.

What is universally negative is requiring all future technologies to have loopholes through which things can be deleted, thereby preventing some designs outright. I think this parent comment sums it up quite nicely why having such systems is something very reasonable and desirable:

> On the other hand, (at least some) end-users see decentralisation as a huge benefit, and at least in my case it gives me confidence that the whim of a single company can't ruin the experience for me, or even take away the platform altogether.
My comment implied that I'm not sure what else could be done or what should be done. I do feel it should be talked about. What are the root causes? What do these people actually need? What are they lacking? Who are they in the first place? Why are they where they are?
>He did something illegal in order to hide the illegal activities of his accomplice.

Something the previous DoJ refused to charge him on as they said it would obviously violate the freedom of the press. As it is not a crime, it is routine behavior among journalists.

Publishing the leaks Manning provided makes him a journalist, your conspiracy theory about his loyalty doesn't change that. If there were any proof of your statement, don't you think that would be something he was charged with?

I highly doubt that there are millions of people who call themselves vegan without having heard of this definition. People don't just wake up one day and stop eating animal products.

The abstract company villan has access to the locally stored history too.
GNU gettext is a well working framework for i18n.

For the sentence ordering we include all variables in the translations, but split translations on styles. We then give the translator the text in order of html appearance in source code for context. Translators can then rearrange everything but the variable across the string and also leave stuff blank when necessary.
It's not perfect, but works in most cases.

And in the end developers and designers must consider the "translateability" of the UI. It's always possible to create untranslateable UI.
I wonder how this will affect Iridium in the long term. They target applications that provide critical services with low bandwidth requirements, and a need for small lightweight antennas with low power use.

Starlink's design doesn't fit those requirements for now. But I'm not sure whether Starlink will stay out of that market if they will be continuously upgrading their swarm.

On the other hand, it would be strange if SpaceX destroyed Iridium's business model after launching their latest generation satellites for them...
Sure. You can annotate the history however you want. I don't think there's a "truth."

Various clerical abuses/scandals probably played the real lead role, if you ask most people. You can always convincingly argue for "one damned thing after another" as the real engine of history. There's also the plain fact that the BBC interview involved an entirely different church in a different country, which is points againt my version.

..That's why I say symbolic.

That interview just feels like the magic is gone, curtain is pulled or pick your metaphor. Suddenly (it seemed to take them by surprise) the bishop was just an old man in silly clothes who couldn't make a relevant argument, didn't seem like an authority and wouldn't be taken more seriously than the comedians who's film had interesting commentary, besides being funny and entertaining.

It captured a moment, imo. I also like python... so bias.
I realize everyone hates videos on HN and probably scrolled right past it, but this guy is hysterical. Worth watching the first couple minutes at least.
Mapping the Global Migration of Millionaires
Freedom of speech wasn't granted to us to talk about weather while drinking coffee. Freedom of speech was granted to us to talk about difficult topics quite often when we don't like discussing it in the first place.

This paraphrase of a quote is often attributed to both Churchill and Jefferson.

The whole idea is that people who you are uncomfortable listening to have the right to speech right in your face even when it makes you extremely uncomfortable. The whole current political system is morally bankrupt when some of us are granted this freedom (radical immams) while others aren't (i.e. racists). Because then regular people on the street stop believing and voting for liberal democrats. Liberal democrats criticizing freedom of speech (not granted to racists would seem to make you happy) and democratic process (i.e. electoral college, brexit) -- they start looking like they don't care about their own values (like freedom of speech and democracy). You can't call yourself liberal and then be anti-free speech to this or another group or perceived group. This makes you look as if you don't understand the words you use to describe ideas you believe in it. You are not liberal if you ban freedom of speech to racist. Period, and of story. Look up liberal in dictionary.

This is one of the reasons why people vote Trump or AfD or Social Democrats in Sweden. They recognize mainstream political parties as anti-democratic (ignoring EU referendums) and anti-liberal (opposition to freedom of speech). So if all the political spectrum in anti-liberal and anti-democratic why not to vote for a party that at least isn't hypocritical about it?
