I'm a Data Analyst looking to leverage my quantitative skills and make an impact. Passionate about interpreting data and studying methods to improve performance. I have experience developing and designing reports, dashboards, and presentations to display KPIs, detailed insights, and actions to improve results. I'm self reliant and eager to grow my skill set!
We are special in that we have evolved to be utterly dominant, which gives us privileges and responsibilities other animals don’t share.

Also, other animals kill out of necessity. We don’t need to kill to survive at all so why are we justified to do so?
> OR literally someone trying to steal crap from their porch etc.

To significantly reduce the chance of package theft, I got a simple outdoor cabinet (no lock) and put up a sign on my door asking deliverymen to place packages in it. They do it 95% of the time now, so it's very difficult for a potential package thief to know if there's anything to steal at my door.

Specifically, I got one of these and spray-painted it to match my house:

But in the context and era, auto-updates were not common. No other browser auto-updated. Windows XP was released a month before IE6. Windows Update was still considered a revolutionary thing (and had been a stand-alone product only a short time earlier).

Considering the context and era, IE being updated through Windows Updates was actually a huge improvement over the state of the art at the time.
We've been working on it for a year and we have one data engineer, one backend engineer, and one frontend engineer.

We recently set up a tech blog[0] and we have upcoming posts that will talk about the architecture and decisions we made. Here's a post about the original proof-of-concept (we are no longer using that version): https://hackernoon.com/cc-search-developer-notes-and-reflect...

Nextdoor is amazing for that! Every time a car backfires there are multiple posts about "Gunshots in the area!?"

Helicopter flying overhead? be sure to follow the multiple "Police choppers looking for a perp in our neighborhood!" posts.

People revel in fearmongering :(
I think you missed the point, which is that cocaine wasn't expected there at all. Its presence indicates that there is some way for it to get into the environment that was not anticipated.

It means that now we need to figure out how it gets there, and whether or not that is a problem, and if it is how to stop it. Just because it is probably not a problem for the shrimp doesn't mean it is not a problem, because it is unlikely that whatever is releasing it into the environment does so in a way that only reaches shrimp.
One of my first personal projects was to try to produce an isometric 2d game in javascript, I failed spectacularly but learned a lot. Thank you for not just a really cool library but reminding me of that childhood trial!
EDIT: I misunderstood the article. Nothing to see here.
What counts as the "western world" ?

I know of at least one chain [1] in Europe that matches your description.

I wonder how they're going to deal with Steam Workshop stuff. I guess that's probably just going into the dumpster.
It’s time to kill the web (2017)
both inbound and outbound (MTA), I ask regarding the reputation
Cooperatives of all kind. Housing. Work. Canteens.

Warm and welcoming places that invite all to step in from the cold and stay awhile.

Housing coops and canteens exist but are not common.

Worker coops on the other hand...

I sincerely believe that a well-organized tech worker coop would eat the world. The incentives are fundamentally misaligned for the average worker in the modern corporation. I'm well aware that I'm getting taking advantage of everyday when I show up to work, and that sets a pretty low upper bound on the amount of fucks I give about someone else's corporation.

'disrupt' that and you'll be unstoppable.
I am not sure how I feel about this. So long as I can continue to play without interruption then its all good. However, if they try to force me to pay more I am going to be very upset.
You're basically living my dream. How'd you make it happen?
TextEdit Deletes Original File Even When You Cancel
But why? They tested not sold metal. The only possible reason is the metal company paid them.
Microsoft pulled a stunt before when they made Windows load an executable from inside UEFI during every boot.
Payment networks are utilities and should be regulated as such. You should never be able to block a legitimate payment (as a corporate entity) that isn’t associated with illegal activity.
Access to higher dimensions? Aliens shaking their heads as we waste enormous amounts of energy to travel through R3 in a straight line instead of taking a short walk in R7.

They should be required to treat everyone neutrally unless specifically ordered to block them by a court of law. No good will come from allowing unaccountable banking oligopolies to decide who can buy and sell.
It's a lot of work to set up the operation (any extraterrestrial endeavor is) but once there it should be possible to launch canisters of fusion fuel back to earth cheaply using some of that fuel for power, a railgun, and the fact that the Moon is tidally locked to the Earth.

Could easily be cheaper than sifting through huge quantities of seawater for the right isotopes.
Apple bundles plenty of software on their computers which I don't want, have never used, which increase the potential attack surface and which I can't uninstall. For example Apple Maps, Apple News, Home, and Books. In fact you can't uninstall any of the apps shipped with macOS. Not even the chess program.
That's a damned shameful decision, because losing SteamOS/Linux support and Steam workshop for the chance to be on the same platform as a fad game is not really "pro-consumer".

This will kill off the Steam Workshop and community pages I'm sure, from which Rocket League benefited heartily.

Just, bad. Bad.
I had an issue similar to this where my company did not qualify for a group health insurance plan because we did not have over 50% of employees in a single state (Owner in CA, one employee in OR, other employee in TX).

After some searching around I came across something know as a QSEHRA (qualified small employer health reimbursement arrangement) which allows qualified small employers to reimburse employee health coverage. We like it because it allows the employee to choose a plan that fits their needs and we don't have to manage anything other than setting the limits and adding the reimbursement amount to their paycheck.

It is important to note that if you opt to reimburse an employees coverage using such a plan they no longer qualify for any government health insurance subsidy.

The company we use to manage this plan is PeopleKeep and they have a short writeup about what it is and how it works here: https://www.peoplekeep.com/blog/what-is-a-qsehra
How much faster is "considerably faster" in this case? GA is one of the most universal and most responsive client loaded dependency. Is your site so lightweight that this makes a difference?

Which are much more limited than Weimar emergency powers. Only specific freedoms can be limited (certain types of privacy, movement, and career), limited legislative powers devolve onto a proportionally-assembled subset of the full legislature rather than to the executive, and the federation can only take control of state forces in emergencies that cross state borders.

Plus a specific exception that says a state of emergency can't be called against labor disputes.
Fascinating read. I've worked with legacy IE a lot and that often included IE6 but never came across that <img> bug. Who would have thought a missing src could do that.

I don't know why I get these warm fuzzies when reading about the Internet of yesteryear.
As far as I'm aware, you should be able to observe the case. I imagine that the public gallery will probably fill up pretty quickly though.
Systemd doesn't matter much in the server space, since the server space is moving away from using host's init system for anything. Where it is actually problematic is linux desktop. I wasted so much time dealing with it on desktop, it's not even funny.
Thanks for the feedback! A big chunk of our upcoming work will focus on improving search results.
Another absolutely killer carb in western diets comes out of refined flour which makes it into a ton of stuff. My wife is gluten-free currently for health reasons and we've experimented with using more raw starch sources to great success. Most of these flour based foods don't need to be super-refined bleached flour.
> Just cutting out beef would capture most of those gains

I was shocked when I read how much cows contribute to warming, and I have mostly stopped eating beef. "Don't eat beef, eat less dairy" and you're good when it comes to diet. That said, there are far more important factors contributing to your carbon footprint. This Ars Technica article from 2017 sums things up well: https://arstechnica.com/science/2017/10/emissions-eschmissio...
This would be an interesting law school exam question :) Is there a de minimus ownership that triggers a shareholders right to be present? Were slave owners permitted to mount a defense on behalf of their accused slaves?

Post your question on r/legaladviceofftopic I bet you'll get some very interesting answers...
> Which numbers really matter

Make sure you choose a goal before choosing the metrics you care about! The metrics OP lists look like they have a goal of driving traffic and engagement which is good for some blogs. But for most of our (hn-crown) blogs the goals look like "sharing info with others", "solidifying me as an expert in this space", or "storing info so I can get back to it later".

Metrics for those goals look very different!
And then wonder why the society is so trigger-happy?

The Server Space is arguably the main place SystemD was designed for, and probably the only place it makes sense to deploy it. There are a subset of use-cases that it does make sense to run SystemD, and the server-space is the place where those cases lie.

In my opinion, for the security and stability of most systems, initd is superior. Lennart Poettering has a long history of ignoring blatant security problems, and SystemD itself has a long history of containing system-breaking bugs, and in general being over-engineered for most use-cases.

See: https://suckless.org/sucks/systemd/ and http://without-systemd.org/wiki/index.php/Arguments_against_... and http://without-systemd.org/wiki/index.php/List_of_articles_c...

EDIT:

There's really nothing here I can say that hasn't been talked about elsewhere. What I will say is that, elsewhere on hacker news, people seem to be preoccupied with "Language Safety", and Rust, and the adjacent languages that provide that. The reason for this is to reduce bugs and potential exploits.

You know what else causes less bugs? LESS CODE, AND LESS FEATURES. The less code there is running on a system, the less code there is to exploit, and the less bugs there are likely to be. PID 1 is a SACRED, HOLY, Process Identifier. Code that runs with this PID has control over the ENTIRE SYSTEM. An exploit in PID 1 is LITERALLY game over.

I admire the efforts to get coreboot support, and love their open hardware initiatives, but I don't understand why everyone has NIH syndrome.

There was no need for them to create their own distro. That is a huge expense just to reinvent a wheel that has already been reinvented ten thousand times. And in the end most of their users will probably just load up the one they use already.

Résumé/CV: https://olso.space

I don't think the article's thesis is that people shouldn't care about local crime news. Its main concern seems to be that a company who directly benefits from people being fearful (justifiably or not) of neighborhood crime, is also getting into the business of disseminating crime news, something which is known to increase people's fear of crime. The author points out that news organizations have traditionally been saturated with crime news, because of its popularity with readers, and that this might contribute to the public's skewed perception of actual crime incidence and trends.

Obviously, Amazon is not just a traditional news publisher, and may end up bringing innovation and doing things much better than journalists ever did. But there has been reason to believe big tech can end up being blindsided and/or fail when trying to disrupt traditional domains and problems.
Who would expect the browser user-agent to actually call itself "EDG" and not "EDGE" though? If you edit the user-agent to include "EDGE" in place of "EDG" everything works, someone thought "EDG" was surely a typo. Malice and stupidity and all that.

Now why they're still sniffing user agents instead of doing feature detection is a good question for Google, who themselves, to the best of my knowledge, push for feature detection instead of sniffing user agents as best practice. Do as we say - not as we do?
What does "supported" usually mean in these cases? Will the Steam version receive the same features as the Epic version, or will the Steam version only receive bugfixes?

I'm not a fan of Epic's store feature and usability-wise already, and I don't feel good about Epic's decision to remove RL from the store on Steam.
Something that stuck out to me was how concerned Google was that even while recommending other browsers next to Chrome, that putting Chrome first in the list could rankle antitrust regulators. Fast forward to 2019 and Windows 10 makes you fight multiple menus and "suggestions" just to switch your default browser away from Edge.
This is because I can change a thing but I can't change my whole life. Well, I can, but that's hard and single things are easy.
