Discussion of paper yesterday:

I was going to chime in with something along the lines of:

...and this is why I like Ansible. easy to follow scripts that do all the leg-work, and is reproducible at the command line...

So I'd love to hear of some of the hurdles you have encountered. So I can avoid them in the future.

BTW, I do agree with you. I vastly prefer a 'CLI fall-back' level of control, and that's the only way to keep core skills relevant. Another example of this:
Do it once manually, then use automation to replicate it 1000 times.
Visual mode is a good next step after getting comfortable with b,w,e,h,j,k,l navigation.
I've also hosted my own email for several years now, on several domains. The one thing I have that does not appear to be listed is a DMARC policy. As the comments on the blog post suggest, configuring DMARC works. I have no problem delivering to either Gmail or Outlook.

I don't think it's unreasonable to be strict regarding DMARC delivery. My MTA has a fairly strict SPF configuration - any email with an invalid spf result is rejected. This can come about because a legitimate company has misconfigured their spf records (happened twice in all the years I have hosted, discussions via postmaster@ helped them configure their dns correctly), but 99.999% of the time it is a spammer. What is worse is that rejecting email for domains without any SPF records can still result in valid email being lost, in 2019.

In this specific case, I don't think Google are "being evil". They're trying to reduce spam in the email ecosystem and they're doing it by using standards they themselves adhere to (Gmail send me reports of dmarc statistics each day google domains receive email from my box).

On the other hand, I do of course support either self hosting, or using another provider so as to ensure we do not end up with a Gmail monopoly. If I did not self host, I would find another provider like (but may not) Fastmail, Posteo etc (I would have to seriously review the options, which I haven't done).
TBH, I'm not convinced that a great effort to think about "how to stage changes that span many repos" is always (or maybe even often) a benefit. It seems like the simpler approach of just making it easy to make multimodule changes is a benefit of the monorepo.
The Future of Capitalism
This does lead to an interesting idea - that one thing 18th and 19th century governments did that helped the industrial and financial revolutions was much better census and records keeping.

Now Facebook has an incentive to catalogue and index, well, everyone even in countries where the government ability to do so is lacking.

The Peruvian economist who tried to show that finance was denied to people who lived on land unofficially for generations but as they officially did not live there had no access to capital might find that an interesting approach - at some point digitisation of global records is going to have to happen - what if the laggards are replaced by Facebook? What if most people in the globe just keep their Facebook status up to date in lieu of Government record keeping.

If we for example posit everyone has a FIDO HSM, and that facebook has special records that are signable. Eventually you have a network of unofficial records that have an invioable web of trust. I live at this location. My friends Dadlikes/signs that post, and my friends Dad works at the post office and then the tax office can find out where to send me letters.

This is the basic promise of government record digitisation. Its just bottom up.

Lots of advantages besides the hideously obvious downsides.
That is a complex question that cannot be answered as a one size fits all. "intellectually challenged" can mean many different things. In some cases yes - it is good for the "smart" kids to learn to deal with the "stupid". In some cases no, the "stupid" just hold back the "smart". Note that this is all levels, the above average student sometimes needs to be at a lower level than the very smartest, and sometimes together.

There is a difference between subjects as well. I've been in choir with some "intellectually challenged" kids who had great voices: I was the one being challenged.

A line for female athletes has been put in place at a testosteron level of 5 nmol/L.
according to the article:
"more than 99% of females have around 0.12-1.79 nmol/L of testosterone in their bodies"
and:
"male range of 7.7-29.4 nmol/L"

Other sports have limits for molecules like EPO, where the limit is also different between men and women: https://www.nature.com/news/2006/060224/full/news060220-18.h...

This is just different because it is about the male hormone, and now the IAAF conveniently has a metric to distinguish between men and women.

It is just case that has no easy answer. Athletic games has been held for ages, celebrating the best people in their disciplines, while at the same time discouraging people to cheat.

It turns out some people exist with natural advantages, and this advantage is just particularly controversial because it is related to gender.

> Crowdsource your career decisions.

This is just bad advice, other people will give advice they wish they had been given, it is a mistake to confuse this with advice thats useful to you.

At the end of the day your career is too big and unique to you for anyone else to give informed, accurate or useful advice on.

With hindsight you can cherry pick the good advice from the bad, the informed from the uninformed, making this advice seem useful. But when actually trying to make a decision you have just flooded yourself with a lot of advice that may be helpful or harmful and you have no idea which.

I think the rest of this advice has the same issue. Advice that sounds good given hindsight, not so useful without it.
"The only serious solution to climate change is carbon recapture."

Emphatic agreement.

We must capture and sequester faster than all sources of atmospheric CO2 & CH4. By every means available. To hopefully stop and then reverse the warming.

For the viewing audience, anthropogenic carbon is now but a fraction of the problem. Tundra is thawing, forests are burning, oceans are acidifying. In an accelerating positive feedback loop. All human activity could stop today and the increase would continue.

All the nitpicking and concern trolling and harumping doubting thomases in the replies is very discouraging.

Nukes vs point source capture vs BEVs vs blah blah blah. Yes, yes, yes. It's all needed. Like thirty years ago. Stop fussing and get on board.

How are geeks not grokking the scale of the immediate threat? Arguing about rearranging the deck chairs as the Titanic is sinking.
Hi Mark

For accessibility your sidebar could be a <header> containing a <nav> with the links in that. This <header> can precede the <main> content. The title for the links should be in the <nav> so it outlines properly and the heading for the <header> or the <nav> doesn't need to be <h1>. <h1> is best kept just for the article, not anything else.

If the <header> containing the <nav> precedes the <main> you can style it to look like a sidebar. Why bother? Well, try it and then see how the page opens with Firefox Reader Mode. You should see the difference, the reader can jump past the header 'landmark' to the article.

If you want to go fully HTML5...

The newsletter signup could be in an <aside> rather than a <div>.

Then with the article, it is nice to see use of <figure>, I have no evidence but I believe Google likes that. You can also try breaking down the article into <section> sized chunks, with the <h2> headings at the top of each <section>. This should compartmentalise each 'section' into a way that search engines might prefer. Amongst the <section>s the <aside> for the newsletter can slot in, outlining nicely. Ideally the newsletter <aside> also has a heading.

Footnotes. If you change 'name' to 'id' then you will get top scores on validation. Nobody will ever notice or care, but you don't want validation errors do you?

Really cool footnotes using CSS counters.

Why bother?

Well, you have taken HTML5 so far and not much is needed to go exemplary. In a world where everyone is up to speed on web technologies few get the actual HTML right. You might not know the latest funky web technology but it is always useful to point out how HTML5 could be done using the full vocabulary instead of just <div> mumblings.
I've been past a specialist umbrella shop [0] in London hundreds of times and it has always intrigued me, though I have never been inside. I'm not quite sure it's in the same vein as the other speciality shops people are listing here though, since it has been there for almost 200 years and clearly targets the more discerning customer with high quality and bespoke items.

US forces are also a major contributor to instability in the middle-east (and the world) that have had negative consequences for much of Europe, Africa and South America.

Serverless is a misnomer for this kind of thing; it's "-as-a-service" not long ago. Nobody manages their own email or DNS servers anymore. Webservers, maybe, but that too can be handled by a few hundred different services depending on what is needed.
Very interesting, as a motorcycle rider I am familiar with both two and three wheeled machines. Having two in the front for a three wheeler is much more stable and Can-Am produced by BRP in Canada is an example that is more more like a motorcycle while the Slingshot produced by Polaris is more like a car. The distinction I use is seating position and how you steer them. Both are a hoot to drive but I give the nod to the Can-Am for utility

There have been some one wheel motorcycles and even two wheeled motorcycles have been computerized to be self driving and self balancing, Honda made one that is stable even while not moving

Still my favorite eight, or is that twelve, wheeled vehicle is the Landmaster [1] which was produced for the movie Damnation Alley in the seventies.

I've learnt that for "What you release together, you should version-control together", the phrase "released together" needs to be defined as "what gets globally updated at once". If you provide anything for customers to implement, you cannot update those globally at once (because you need the customer to update), and should think about using a multi-repo set-up.

My experience is that testing the interactions of historic versions of different components in a mono-repo against each other is difficult. With a multi-repo set-up, one can checkout to whatever historic version one needs to test. That makes it trivially easy to set-up testing that allows one to test historic versions of components against each.
Simpler is better for a logo -- I like it!
I think it doesn't matter what you use.
Could literally be anything.

From simple server using something like Python/Ruby/Go/...
To using JS front-end with simple API.

You probably need a database.
Its so easy you can become an expert in merely hours :)
Nothing too surprising really. The largest the density of people living in the same place, the more very niche businesses find enough folks to generate a livelihood out of it. The only reason why such shops tend to disappear is when rents become too high - but then nowadays they have the opportunity to go online instead. Tokyo has lots of hyper-specialist shops in different areas of the city, too.

Phonon-mediated quantum state transfer and remote qubit entanglement
There are other vendors who sell tracker based authentication to banks, government agencies and others conceded with fraud.

A related category is vendors that will ask you questions based on the content of credit and consumer files. (E.g. What color car did you get a loan for in 2012?)
This is a silly thing to say on a forum dedicated to prevent stupid things from infecting what would be otherwise good conversations.
I know. And I actually use it (aside from podcasts). But nobody else does, and it doesn't seem likely to come roaring back. So the larger problem remains.
> A monorepo oriented build tool such as Bazel will make sure that you don't compile more than needed.

Not at all true in my experience. I use Buck, which is very similar. It constantly recompiles stuff it doesn't need to by any standard. I've seriously considered avoiding Mercurial bookmarks in favor of manual patch management to see if I can avoid triggering the cases where it gets stupid. Maybe it's a problem specific to Buck, but my conversations with peers at other companies suggest not (and only a tiny percentage of developers at any of these companies get a choice of which tool to use).

The other issue is that "more than needed" is subject to more than one interpretation. There's "more than needed" as code was actually written, and there's "more than needed" as code should have been written. Tooling can help with the first but not the second. If developers are sloppy about how their header files are structured, then a change to one that's widely used will make it "necessary" to recompile a lot of code - including code that didn't actually use the part that changed. Oddly enough, though, that "necessary" recompilation wouldn't occur if those same header files were split up. (BTW some languages make good design more difficult by requiring private implementation details in public header files, but that's a separate conversation.) Tooling can optimize what it can see, but what it sees might already be a tangle of dependencies added only because a monorepo made it easy.
I don't like paying taxes either, but we have to fund our government and the services it provides somehow, right?

If you rent a space and buy a Mac for work you can probably get the VAT you paid back, deducting if from the VAT you add to your own invoices.

Income tax and VAT are the biggest taxes here, what I am saying is that income tax is worse because it hurts jobs directly. VAT does distort pricing internationally, as you say. If all countries would have the same it would be better for everyone.

It would be even better if we could tax capital and corporate profits more, but powerful forces work against that.

Of course we can also not sufficiently fund the government and gut it. We'll see in a decennium or two how that works out in the US.
I've forgotten how to write assembly, but that doesn't mean I can't make the computer do the same things with higher order abstractions.
New symbol in the logo is OK, but the text is a disaster.

Just stare at it for a second, especially the Re-d coupling. It's unkerned. The 'e' is about to topple over to the right, 'd' looks pregnant, 'a' is too top heavy. There's no visual balance, rhythm or consistency to how "Red Hat" looks. It basically looks as an amateur job.

I used to think like you. Then I started digging into things a little deeper and came away utterly horrified at how much of what we read is completely misleading.

Lets start with the idea that wind is somehow making strides:

Today it's less than 1% of the world's energy (which is the important factor here not just electricity) Projected to be 3% in 2040.

With regards to Germanys ELECTRICITY usage (again it's not energy but electricity):

And again pile up all the other things I talked on top of that and you get to why your "facts" are not actually useful but misleading.

What an asinine response. Bad luck should happen in spite of the law, not because of it.
Integrating with other products is something that goes beyond the scope of SCM repository layout, though. If you change your API then clearly someone on the other side also needs to adjust, but that's not simply sending a pull request. That's also making sure you deploy your products in the right order, ensure backwards compatibility and so on.

Re integration testing: That's why things like contract testing are becoming more popular. You make sure that you do as much testing as you can without relying on an entire ecosystem of depdendencies being available, so once you DO release something you can be fairly confident that it's already working as expected.
Have you seen such a scraper anywhere? Seems much harder. Youtube doesn't require you to be logged in to see the majority of content. Plus, you don't want the comments to come along when you scrape YT, whereas on FB, that would be a large part of the point.

"When a corporation is criminally liable, the responsibility also falls on individuals. The board of directors, officers, and other high-ranking officials will almost always be criminally liable as well (just look at the Enron fiasco). A individual can be held criminally liable for another employee's illegal act under the accomplice liability theory."

Why does hacker news keep promoting paid articles? Is this HN'S business model or just coincidence that it assumes we all have a Washingtonpost subscription?
I meant, C replacing assembly in the skill sets of the vast majority of us is still okay because it's widely supported, unlike many — as you put it — hand-rolled DSLs replacing few standard ways of configuring things.
The problem is that for some people, that 'drunk' state is chronic, never-ending and for all intents and purposes, permanent.

Depression isn't just the low feeling after a bad breakup, or a job loss or some other life hurdle. Sometimes it's a chronic condition that may not ever end because it doesn't have any of those typical 'triggers', it's clinical and relentless.

When you understand that, you'll see why that in telling someone their planned suicide is merely 'a permanent solution to a temporary problem' they look at you with nothing more than contempt.

Because you don't understand what its like. You never will.
> Corporate and personal greed perpetuated this fraud against the government and other private customers, and this resolution holds these companies accountable for the harm caused by their scheme

Did he misspeak or are only the companies being held accountable? I don't think a company can exhibit "personal greed." Is he implying there are individuals responsible as well who aren't being held accountable?

And btw, did you know moose/elk were first described on paper by Julius Ceasar during his "trip" to Germania? He thought they have no joints in their legs and sleep propped up against trees.

Just a little moose fact for you.

Edit since I want to share this; other moose-related businesses I've been to in Europe:

- Moose Coffee chain in north England (excellent)

- Moose Garden in Sweden where you can live with the moose.
Ask HN: Discovered Homosapiens Ancestor(s) with Eurasian Traits and More Traits
Withheld research/a discovery by a leading human genetics - specifically, a population genetics researcher/university genetics professor - shows that early indigenous African human groups/homosapiens were not the only early humans. Further, this human group(s) is a vital ancestor of non-indigenous African/Eurasian human groups, among other things. Aside from known Eurasian/non-indigenous African genetic traits, the group(s)' descendants have additional visible genetic traits that distinguish the persons from indigenous African population groups.
I have successfully reached out to the DNA sample providers, so the scientist's withheld research findings are not necessary; however, the problem I've encountered is convincing the scientist's peers to re-test the sample providers.

There's more evidence aside from genetic data available, including observable eye and skin-related genetic traits - not presently identified as human or mammal traits.

I've encountered trepidation from the peers of the scientist whom I've reached out to because it's a "sensitive area," according to one of the scientists. For instance, a dermatologist at Weill Cornell was initially excited to accept one of the key DNA sample providers, Michael, as a patient - to document Michael's skin traits and engage further genetic research; however, Michael's admission was not approved by the dermatology department with no further explanation. Also, the lead scientist at the University of Washington's Genetic Diagnostics laboratory cited cost and ethics for declining testing. A New York Times science journalist has significant interest; however, the testing geneticist's peers have refused to answer the journalist's primary question by re-testing a couple of the DNA sample providers.

Primarily, I'm seeking a public acknowledgment of the basic discovery and funding towards additional testing as necessary.

This isn't a hoax and there's much more to share - just ask.
Yes, but I still have an effective hourly rate.
Thanks. This update seems like it's not a good candidate for Show HN, but when I do release v0.5 it should be.
Looks more like a neckbeard fedora now. Probably did an analysis and found that winning points with the Mountain Dew and Doritos crowd was worth more than points lost for those who can’t stand them.

Edit: to put it another way, removing the face and putting in just the hat, puts more attention on the hat. And it looks more like it could be a trilby while the old hat was more of a classic fedora.
