Poverty is undoubtedly the cause in most cases, but not all. It’s worth noting that even among farmers who deal in $100,000s, the addiction and suicide rates are still abysmal because their lifestyle and environment are so unfavorable.

Also, and while it’s probably controversial to say, I don’t think poverty in the inner city is anywhere near as hard to overcome. First and foremost, you have access to numerous social services and charities that don’t exist in rural settings. You can also literally just take a bus out of any urban ghetto every day and lead any kind of life you want. If you’re stuck in a trailer park surrounded by hell, for lack of a better description, you’re completely and totally fucked — especially if you’re a minor.
I think, as others have already mentioned, it's not all one way or the other. Different situations require different approaches.

In general, being aware and correctly using negative/white space is a good thing. The problem is that the article doesn't actually explain this part correctly. To make things worse, the example chosen has an extremely narrow focus.

The key point to learn is that white space can produce layout as much as elements do. This is, in fact, already explained then talking about proximity. You can't really establish proximity if you don't establish separation, so you can't produce a clear layout if you don't keep some spaces "empty". And so, yes, it shouldn't be about maximizing white space, but about using it correctly and making it part of your layout.

Generally, the rule with white space is not about maximizing but this one: Give an element as much white space as the difference in importance of the element over its surroundings. That is, if an element is differentially more important, it should have more white space around it.

So if you only have one very important element and some others much less so, then sure, that element will take over a large amount of its surrounding space and that should be kept empty. This is the example shown in the article, where there is only one important element. In the case you mention, in an information dense layout, you tend to have numbers of elements of similar importance, and so they will have to share white space and produce a more compact -dense- layout.
It’s interesting to see how FTP became so fringe, when at a its peak pointing a browser at a FTP url would be enough to browse anonymously.
Very true, especially in the emergency medicine and critical care world where entire conferences and movements are organized around hashtags (like #foamed or #medtwitter). It's too bad Twitter doesn't give it's users tools to screen out bad actors and accentuate the positive.

nytimes routinely publishes filler articles on improving privacy, security etc. And yet, if you open nytimes in something like firefox focus/klar, it will block your view with a giant "You are in private mode; sign in" banner. Yeah, no shit nytimes. If I wanted to sign in, I wouldn't be in private mode.

To anyone who still wants to persist on mobile, firefox with ublock origin works. It runs like a dog though, partly because of firefox on mobile and partly because of nytimes' bloat.

In South Korea, playgrounds are everywhere. They look very very dangerous on my point of view because I've never seen those kind of design and activity when I was a kid. I've been here 4 years and I have never seen one get injured on them.
Allied countries get treated with less suspicion than enemy countries - it's not complicated or unjustified. In one case, the company might be doing something wrong to consumers. In the other case, the enemy government might be making military advances against our whole country.

If a Canadian or British company did the WhatsApp thing they'd get similar treatment. It's no that Israel is individually "special", it's that they're in the large group of ally countries to the US.
Out of curiosity, are you actually from a small town? If so, what was it that everyone knew everyone?

The town I grew up in was around 20,000 people. While I absolutely ran into people I knew when out doing errands, I don't think it was ever to the extent my mother-in-law (someone who despises small towns) imagined it to be. I am curious where this notion came from.
Laying down the groundwork for the Fourth Reich, I see. 30 years down the road someone gets elected who really doesn't want to go when the term is up. If things are well bolted down by then, they could stay indefinitely by simply sending people to jail for "extremism". It's as if history doesn't teach people anything at all, even recent history of less than 100 years ago.
Wow. I listened to the post and felt like I was in the developer equivalent of the twilight zone. Love it!
You can't just redefine a murder video as pornographic because you don't like it. You mentioned the miller test, so you already know it requires that it depict "sexual conduct or excretory functions specifically defined by applicable state law".

Ignoring the state law requirement (which you haven't cited), the video does not depict sexual conduct.. and there's no way you can twist this into being illegal in the US. It's not illegal. Period. ISIS videos aren't illegal either.

You've clearly misunderstood our laws.

If by most American thing ever you mean the most awesome idea ever, I would say no, but it is still up there.

The way around this is to put the waste in an old salt mine. Salt deposits accumulated there in the first place because it's been dry for thousands of years due to geological features like an impermeable rock dome overhead.

The real problem is that nobody wants this waste dump in their state. The Yucca Mountain complex is pretty much perfect for this application but politicians killed it.
Hey I used buxfer for years when I was trying to control my finances and learn my patterns during college and first jobs.

It was great, I liked it so much that even on a super shitty exchange rate for me I became a subscriber at the time, even though I didn’t need the subs features.

I don’t use it anymore, maily because I can do it in my head now + the little tools my bank provides, but thanks man. Your service made me a better human.
I am in agreeance that if they can't sustain their business without VC or underpaid workers then it isn't a viable business model and the market should let them go bankrupt. I kind of hope they do so that a more reasonable business can fill the void.

>there are many news sources, everybody wants to get paid, people don’t want to pay for all of them, yet still not content from getting the news from a single source.

Don't pay for all of them and BE CONTENT with getting news/information from a small set of outlets you want. Abundance of choice doesn't mean that you have to try out everything under the sun. This is consumer expectations being irrational after an era of free ad-sponsored internet articles. Given a median US income of 60k, most people within this group can definitely budget for 3-4 publications annually. Go lower and people can pay for 2-3 publications. Go lower and you probably don't have time for reading news and have more pressing matters in life. We are no longer primed to pay for content so even paying 10 USD a month is jarring experience for most.

The problem is less of the market and more of the consumer. We went from a lack of information to information overabundance with the advent of internet, google and free articles. Now we want to read/watch/listen to everything which is physically impossible. We think we want to read a couple of articles from every other site but most of us (HN/reddit may be vocal exceptions) end up reading a decent chunk of articles from a small number of sites. I am not pulling these numbers out of thin hair. I am building a much more powerful alternative to pocket/instapaper and these trends are coming from the first set of beta users (albeit small but for which I have no reason to believe also doesn't pan out at significant numbers) from finance, tech and other industries. Even I was surprised when I ran my own set of links and saw that 95% of them were coming from a set of 5-6 publishers at best whose combined annual subscriptions were north of just 200 USD - something I'm happy to and already do pay for.

You might be thinking of impactor probes, in which a vehicle is deliberately crashed into the moon (or another body) in order to generate shockwaves. Previously landed seismic instruments can us this to gather information about the moon's internal structure.
hum. sounds like the worst of both worlds...

I can almost understand the value for the chia pudding thing that still lack a variety of off-brands. But haagen daaz, toblerone, et al are just the same regular product today (sometimes even lower quality than the local small brand of icecream/chocolate for example) with a markup because of the brand, somewhat justified because the brand evokes attention to quality (e.g. no expired product on display) and probably pays for better placement (e.g. top shelf or a dedicated store). Now you have the so-so product from the name-brand, with the markup removed because you removed the quality and placement! Is marketing for those brands alone that good?
Is it possible that perhaps this difference could be split by legislating against harming others? This also has the benefit of not requiring lesiglative bodies to spell out every circumstance that could be involved.

It sounds like you might be in full agreement with the person you have quoted.

They weren’t 20 lb hammers, no, but nails (safer than brads actually), small hacksaws and the like — a regular rip saw is too heavy for a little kid!. Things like hot glue guns were plugged in indoors - kids went in and used them on their own as needed.

But also more was expected: I remember nobody thought it remarkable when the after school teacher just decided one day to take 8 or 10 kids aged 5-11 on foot to downtown Palo Alto (3-4 miles round trip) by herself.
Thanks. It's based on the following data (from the same link):

"Lunar seismicity was recorded by four seismometers placed at the Apollo 12, 14, 15 and 16 landing sites. These seismometers operated from 1969 to 1977 and recorded 28 shallow moonquakes."

and it's a more modern and definitely interesting approach to analyze these measurements. The conclusion which "strongly" suggests that "the Moon is tectonically active" is an argument to measure more in the future. The new measurements and the refinement of their analysis could surely increase our capabilities of modelling the rocks and the layers, even on the Earth. It doesn't however mean that the structure of the Moon fully matches that of Earth.

But also:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geology_of_the_Moon

"Studies of the Moon's physical librations (small perturbations to its rotation) furthermore indicate that the core is still molten."

is a Wikipedia claim without the citation. But in NASA's article from 2011:

https://www.nasa.gov/topics/moonmars/features/lunar_core.htm...

"The team's findings suggest the moon possesses a solid, iron-rich inner core with a radius of nearly 150 miles and a fluid, primarily liquid-iron outer core with a radius of roughly 205 miles. Where it differs from Earth is a partially molten boundary layer around the core estimated to have a radius of nearly 300 miles."

Also note the estimated sizes of each layer:

https://www.nasa.gov/images/content/508668main_lunar_core_lg...

Also, the results of the GRAIL mission which ended in 2012 suggest that the lunar crust is thinner than the previous estimates.
One area were overworking is very common practice is academia. There is no time tracking at most German universities (interestingly, universities of applied sciences seem to have them). It would actually be a pretty huge shift in the academic workspace if time tracking was mandatory. I suspect that most research faculty easily work 50% or more on top of their regular load without pay. Especially in fields where it's common practice to hand out 20h/week positions with the implied expectation that you put in a full week workload.
That's great, but would be a contravention this new law apparently.

The law doesn't want to know how much you bill or how much is allocated, but how much you actually work.

I the context of labour, surely it makes sense, but there, most hours are logged.

Outside of that it gets a little harder.
I agree, but that's not really relevant to the discussion about extremism and online censorship.

Also I'm Irish, living in Ireland. Apart from maybe funding a health service that's not fit for purpose, it's a serious stretch to say that my taxes are sponsoring the killings of anyone.
hum.. that's exactly the point of not comparing both things.

Reading a book, as bad as it is, start a well informed debate, that might improve the world. You can't critique or remedy something you doesn't know exists.

While hating a particular group of people (because you read the book, or didn't pay attention in life, or any other reason) does not improve anything.
And where exactly did Dropbox make a legally binding agreement with you that allows you to sync 20GB to an unlimited number of devices for perpetuity? The agreement you're referencing doesn't exist.
Those are excellent points. The rise of extremism is very worrying. Have you considered the possibility that this is might not be unprecedented, and that censorship may have been tried previously?

It may be worth considering that it might be acceptable to not choose censorship as a policy. Some might opine that an inability to find an alternative should not be construed as support for censorship, and that this is merely the politicians syllogism at work.
I recently started using a Digital Ocean droplet for my Nextcloud server. It seems very nice so far and I love the PhoneTrack addon. It helped me map out where we're going to put some of our buildings on our property.

I am going to look into mouting my home server's 2TB ZFS array via NFS on my droplet this week, and then reinstall Nextcloud and use that mount point for the user data.
My interpretation is binary: Either this is a bullshit move in trade war where the current US administration is hell-bent in bringing the Chinese economy to its knees. Or Huawei is major security threat and all its technology infrastructure spread around the Western world should be rolled back.
The article talks about these movements occurring close to apogee (the point in the Moon's orbit when it's furthest from the earth), so it looks like this activity is driven by gravitational tidal forces rather than internal heat.
Don’t worry: they may be profitable now, but they’ll eventually make it up in volume.
"The quality of life for EU citizens is high and getting higher."

This is debatable, moreover, ostensibly the primary driver of that improved quality is actually productivity, though obviously there are other things.

EU excepting Norway/Switzerland/Lux etc. really does depend on productivity quite a lot.
I am heavily using Google Photos (paid account), but it’s frustrating how slow uploads are, how bad it deals with batches of files (can take hours to upload a few thousand photos) and how little visibility there is over what is actually syncing and what is stuck.

I use primarily OSX/iOS, is the Drive experience any better ? I was seriously thinking about moving from Dropbox to Drive, but these issues are giving me pause.

I can't find a link to the thread (in 5 minutes of Googling), but IIRC in a thread discussing the 2nd iteration[1] of a patch to fix the recent runc container breakout exploit this year one of the developers responsible for the patch flat out stated that Go was a poor choice for runc and has resulted in too much pain and ugly hacks. For example, because namespaces are per thread in Linux and you can't control how Go threads (goroutines, cgo stacks) migrate across kernel threads, the most basic task of simply creating and entering a namespace is complicated. (Neither Go nor Linux are amenable to providing a mechanism to alleviate the issue.) And then there's the issue of memory management--too much bloat and lack of fine-grained control as compared to a managed memory environment. These things don't usually matter, but when they do matter they really matter. They can become the primary source of complexity.

[1] The original fix was to exec runc from a memfd-backed copy so writing to /proc/self/exe in the container didn't poison the binary outside the container. But the change in memory usage broke some existing workloads in the wild which had low memory resource limits. I think the second iteration used O_TMPFILE on tmpfs, or at least that was what was under discussion.

Maybe a better idea would be to spell out expectations, so there's at least transparency in terms of comp.

I grab emails, take calls and do little things quite often in the evening, impromptu, it's rather difficult to measure all of that in many management functions.
The tidal forces are known topic:

https://www.teachastronomy.com/textbook/The-Earth-Moon-Syste...

"Even when there's no water to respond to tidal forces, the solid mass of a planet feels the stress caused by these forces. In fact, tidal forces can heat the interior of a satellite in an elliptical orbit. In that case, the satellite comes closer to the planet during one part of its orbit and there it's subjected to strong stretching forces. As it moves away from the planet the stress is partly released and the body relaxes back toward a more spherical shape. This continual flexing of the satellite creates heat through internal friction, in the same way, that if you flex a tennis ball enough times it becomes warm. This effect is called tidal heating. The more elliptical the orbit, the stronger the tidal heating. Jupiter's large Galilean satellites experience this kind of heating — enough to produce extensive volcanism on Io and possibly create liquid-water oceans beneath the surface of Europa."

The question is how the Moon could be more precisely modeled, and if some refinements to our models used on Earth too could be done, and for all that more measurements would be needed. The paper uses only those made from 1969 to 1977 from the seismometers placed by four Apollo missions, and tries to interpret the data with newer methods than what was done before with the existing measurements, but since 1977 there were no new measurements.

Also:

https://physicsworld.com/a/radioactive-decay-accounts-for-ha...

"About 50% of the heat given off by the Earth is generated by the radioactive decay of elements such as uranium and thorium, and their decay products. That is the conclusion of an international team of physicists that has used the KamLAND detector in Japan to measure the flux of antineutrinos emanating from deep within the Earth."

I wonder if this isn't survivorship bias.
It's fully on the employer if they log more time than you actually worked, the issue that was addressed with this ruling was people who'd clock out and then continue to work or where there is no clock and people simply write down how long they worked.

The issue the court had was that if you write it down then there is the possibility that you worked overtime but didn't actually write that or your employer changed it. If start and end of work time are accurately tracked then you can sue them for not paying you overtime.
I’m a bit out of my depth here, so someone more knowledgeable correct me if my understanding is wrong.

In the article, they’re stating they believe it’s seismic activity because it’s occurring within some distance of these fault scarps, which also appear to be where the surface displays lines in the images shown in the article?

How are they dismissing it’s not a result of material from space striking the surface? Is it that their sensors are able to disambiguate if the source is from the surface vs deeper in the moon?
