We also need to work in the discoverability of this feature too. Lots of existing users of our extension had no idea it was there ... suggestions welcome!
It simply doesn't work, at all.

Prove that it does work. Because it just doesn't exist at all.

But until then, the bad and misleading products are quite profitable for those engaging in the bad practices, thereby ensuring the behavior will continue to happen. Once they're "found out", they'll just re-brand or move to some other garbage to manufacture.
After trying several free floating services, I can tell you this is definitely an issue.

This is why a) free/libre software and b) Moore's law are important. Trading privacy for convenience is a real trade you can make right now, and nobody benefits from pretending it isn't--the first step to fixing that problem is to admit it exists. But there's no inherent reason this has to be done "on the cloud" (which is just a marketing phrase for "on other people's computers"). As an industry, I would like to see us putting more computing power into end users' hardware and more intelligence into freely available software so that more of this work can be done on people's personal computers without giving their data to amoral corporations.
In case it hasn't been said yet - the color scheme for the page needs work. On my MBP it looks/feels like "dark on dark"; that is, the buttons are a dark blue on a darker blue background - at least, that's what I perceive.

So certain effects are very subtle (in my case, I had to look at the "pulse" effect carefully to see it).

Maybe have a "light vs dark" setting? Or multiple color combos to try out?
I'm agreeing with the "no" votes here. It's extra work and testing complexity for a one off case that's trivially avoided by spammers.

And where do you draw the line? Should it flag a link with text "htp://ebay.com" that goes somewhere else? "ebay" with a href somewhere else?

There hasn't been a game that was banned in the US until it had altercations made to be Pro-US. That's the difference.

Isn't Islam the only religion that says that all other religions are false?
Google owns my soul. Their boxes know when I sleep, when I wake, how much I exercise, what I listen to, my innermost thoughts, my chats with loved ones, what I watched on Netflix last night, what my company does, the flu I have at the moment, what the hypochondriac in me looks up in the middle of the night, what I buy, whom I call, what I spend money on, where I spend it...

I nominally pay for these services, but I suspect it makes me a vassal instead of a serf. Google consumes. Google contemplates. Google cognates. Google knows. Google sees me while I will never get to see it.

At face value, as long as Google is Google, everything is okay but what happens when google is Google no more? When it goes to join the great corporate farm in the sky? What happens to the exabytes of data they’ll have gathered by then? Who will own it once Google is Google no more? What will happen to our lives once the data changes hands a decade or four from now?

Are there any contingency plans for the largest dataset on Earth? Do we get to know these plans?

Say what you will about Apple (and I’ve said a lot), at least I know where we stand. I have switched to iOS and I recommend that you should do the same. At the very least, Google will no longer know when you sleep.

Socialism as it's understood now is a specific plan for replacing Capitalism, tied to a specific theory of history, not just a philosophy. At the level of implementation, it isn't morality, it's economics and politics. There might be morality behind it, but there's morality behind all actions, to some extent.

It simply doesn't work in any real life situation.

Yes, the problem of self driving cars is they can kill people, that's the whole problem, thing is that google is always promising that "they are here for all", "it's the next year", etc. it's all BS.

You don't have a google self driving car, and you didn't book your hairdresser via duplex, and you won't be booking your car or anything through any of this.

Those are the facts.
Those grapes were sour, anyway. :P

Canada is a great country and by 2031 wholly one-third of its population will be a visible minority whose mother tongue is neither English nor French (allophones). Understandably, not every country is going to follow an immigration policy like that.
The system does not ensure anonymity as to who has voted, but it does maintain secrecy as to how you voted.

The idea is that you can have a public, verifiable "ledger" of voters. You can verify that you are on the list with your encrypted vote. I.e. you verify that your vote counts. You can match it to the receipt you received when voting. You do not, however possess the key to decrypt your vote or the vote of anyone else.

The public list can also be used (more work) to verify that only real people voted: They could presumably be contacted.

Homomorphic encryption allows the votes to be tallied while still encrypted. The result is an encrypted tally.

At this point someone with the decryption key can decrypt the final tally and reveal the result. Presumably this can happen per polling place.

>> Where is their self driving car too?

Waymo is not a car company. They don't have the capability to make an actual car even if the autonomy stuff worked well enough to be used nationwide. Which it does not and will not in the foreseeable future.
yep. that's what I see too. In addition, Sanders harshly criticized the TPP:

"The Trans-Pacific Partnership is a disastrous trade agreement designed to protect the interests of the largest multi-national corporations at the expense of workers, consumers, the environment and the foundations of American democracy. It will also negatively impact some of the poorest people in the world."

And Trump seems to have agreed with that as well.
Yes, I misunderstood his point entirely. On reading my response again I also realize that my examples come off as a not so subtle insult, and which is not what I meant.

They promised that we all be driving in self driving cars in 2017. And they announced they partnered with FIAT Chrysler automotive.

Google sells this BS to journalists, and they sell it to Wall Street. That's only why Google is worth $817B.
You don't need to add the whole CSS, but instead just use the specific animations that you need.

A lot of products are succesful because of the way they're presented, rather than what they do, so animations like these could break it or make it for some.

> Again, where are those contributors?

Current contributions are besides the point, when Netscape open-sourced their browser, the Mozilla Foundation didn't even exist prior to that moment. Java without Oracle is viable - I dare say a "Java Foundation" would be an improvement in terms of community involvement, and there are candidate companies with vested interests (and excellent engineers) to join one should it ever come into existence.

Oracle has a history of not being great at dealing with the wider open source community, not just related to Java: look at how it handled Open Office.
I found that skipping hunger (not real nutritional needs, the need to satisfy a moment through eating) made me a little hyperactive and in a way if I divert this slightly manic like rush, I can do things in deep, not in flow but almost.
That is patently untrue. I live in Silicon Valley, a few miles from one of the big tech giants. I live in a 4 bedroom house (with three roommates) and our collective rent is $4200 a month. Rent is expensive, but $5,000 for a one bedroom is absolutely not the norm.

Absolutely. Most corporations have no more loyalty to one "side" or the other nor any more loyalty to an ideology than the Coke/Fanta hybrid-monstrosity of the 1940s. It took employees to force Google to reverse some of its policies, not its board of directors.

At the same time, as the US withdraws from the world, China fills in. They zealously sell the surveillance state and its equipment world wide just as the US exported its form of capital constrained democracy. So it's not remotely just CBS nor just in the US.

For those annoyed by the occasionally harmful American hegemony, just wait till you see what China is going to do.

The One Stunning Tool You Will Need to Realize Maximum Workability
Every state and city has it's own challenges: TX is hot, Chicago has crime, Detroit lost way too many jobs, Baltimore is drowning in drugs, etc.

But CA is one of the few states that caused it's own problems: it's all self inflicted. Nearly all the problems CA has are due to it's inept voters/politicians: everything from prop 13 to the mountain of legislation inacted over the last 50 years to prevent housing from growing in a state that is actively attracting more and more people.

And, the situation is becoming increasingly dire. 19% SPA adjusted poverty rate, one of the highest in the nation (despite having the highest salaries of any state). this lack of wealth affects everyone living in CA, even those that already own a home (because it drives up the cost of everything else too), but especially those that don't own a home. Although millions have fled CA, it's still not enough.

It's due to the self inflicted nature of the problems that people don't have much sympathy for CA.

Indoor air quality means different things to different people. There are so many chemicals and particles that qualify as air 'pollution' that I find it helpful to rank how important they are. This article does a good job of quantifying the damage by pollutant, using a metric called 'Disability Adjusted Life Years': https://www.energyvanguard.com/blog/which-indoor-air-polluta...

You can see that while there are a lot of things to consider, PM2.5 is by far the most dangerous. Surprisingly to me, mold is actually the next most dangerous, implying that indoor humidity control is also very important.
I'm impressed with the direction Google is taking, and how they've pivoted in the face of public awareness of privacy concerns.

I like the Google products and services that I use. There are some that I miss (Reader) and some that just confuse me (Bookmarks), but the core works for me.

Based on commentary I've seen, I may be the only person on Hacker News to think so. Regardless, I'm hopeful for the future.
As someone who builds websites for money, I couldn't agree more. I rarely get to bill for making incremental changes, I get to bill for implementing features. Spending money to implement and log a properly restrictive Content-Security-Policy doesn't seem like wise use of my clients limited budget.
I would like to hear that too. Where do you feel strong competition from eastern eu countries?
Privacy is going to be the most valuable commodity of the 21st century.

Google is doing everything in its power to buy/take/borrow that commodity from people (just like FB. Amazon, MS, etc...) They can say things like "We are moving from a company that helps you find answers to a company that helps you get things done…We want our products to work harder for you in the context of your job, your home, and your life, and they all share a single goal: to be helpful, so we can be there for you in moments big and small over the course of your day. "

But I don't buy it.
Yeah, but it’s YOUR car getting dirty, not Teslas. Tesla wants your car to become part of the fleet when you are not driving it.
Unfortunately we don't have anything other than humans that can do the job yet. And it's possible we might never have.

Your headlines are indeed scandalous. While the one picked by the NYT correctly emphasizes that as part of the layoff plan, GM management decided that the department responsible for investigating emissions was not worth of funds.
conveniently not mentioned by the NYT, because they're owned by a particular polital faction, and are, effectively, a propaganda source, I'd say.
> In ancient Mesopotamia, years could be designated by an outstanding event of the preceding 12 months:

This system was also used more broadly in Japan, where the "Era" name (元号) would change after a momentous event, typically a few years apart but occasionally in rapid succession. Since Meiji they only change with the Emperors, as just happened last week.

In countries like the UK, laws are still numbered using the year of the reign of the monarch.

The process described in the article makes me think of the modern transition of land (property) being the spaces between the roads rather than roads being something that runs through land. The latter sort of remains in Japan as well, where ordinary roads are typically not given names.
I suspect you're also crying about still not having the jetpack we were promised in the 50s.

Something to be aware of (and a general comment about k8s in general) is that k8s is not suitable for use in hostile multi-tenant scenarios like the one that you're describing. Once an attacker escapes from the container (see HN archives for lots of examples of this), they can p0wn the entire cluster. Jessie Frazelle has a great post on this: https://blog.jessfraz.com/post/hard-multi-tenancy-in-kuberne...

There are expensive ways to deal with this today, e.g., running each user isolated in a separate VM. Hopefully we will have better solutions in the near future.
Yeah but unfortunately there is no GPU support. I wish there was!
So then we should bulldoze all Christian churches, too?

Numbers 31
"The Lord said to Moses, 2 “Take vengeance on the Midianites for the Israelites. After that, you will be gathered to your people.”

3 So Moses said to the people, “Arm some of your men to go to war against the Midianites so that they may carry out the Lord’s vengeance on them...7 They fought against Midian, as the Lord commanded Moses, and killed every man...9 The Israelites captured the Midianite women and children and took all the Midianite herds, flocks and goods as plunder. 10 They burned all the towns where the Midianites had settled, as well as all their camps. 11 They took all the plunder and spoils, including the people and animals, 12 and brought the captives, spoils and plunder to Moses and Eleazar...14 Moses was angry with the officers of the army—the commanders of thousands and commanders of hundreds—who returned from the battle.

15 “Have you allowed all the women to live?” he asked them. 16 “They were the ones who followed Balaam’s advice and enticed the Israelites to be unfaithful to the Lord in the Peor incident, so that a plague struck the Lord’s people. 17 Now kill all the boys. And kill every woman who has slept with a man, 18 but save for yourselves every girl who has never slept with a man."

I nearly fell off my chair reading that agreement. The scope is unreal. Especially considering the settlement amount is a mere $100. For example, the non-disparagement clause isn't limited to the incident. You'd have keep any negative opinions about Uber to yourself for the rest of eternity.

I thought it was odd that only you were a party to the agreement and not your fiance and then I got to paragraph 5 and realized their request is even crazier... they want you to indemnify, defend, and hold them harmless from any other liabilities that might arise from the incident. If it turned out your fiance contracted a deadly illness from her contact with human waste and she sued Uber (or worse, her insurance company sued Uber for reimbursement) not only would you be on the hook for the damages, you would have to pay all of their legal fees during the process.

For a $100 settlement.

I have to imagine you are in the small minority of people who even reads these contracts of adhesion so I'd bet most people who sign these have no idea what they're giving up.

That is truly unconscionable.
That filtering code should already be there in web app.
Again I refer you to RHEL who have an open source version and an enterprise subscription. The Docker Engine taking a similar route rather than building another PaaS and bumping heads with Kubernetes seems an altogether more differentiated and defensible business model.
