The privacy aspect isn't necessarily what draws me in, but rather the simple arrow key search result parsing. Google used to have it but I cannot get it to work anymore. Allows me to very quickly skim many results using arrow down -> enter -> Alt+left -> repeat.

Also the ! command is amazing, no more wasted seconds on the homepages of youtube, amazon, ebay (!yt, !a, !e). Now if only we can add arrow key selection to those sites :)
Also did something similar two weeks ago.[1] It's a big work in progress!

I'm using Rstudio's Distill framework[2], writing RMarkdown, hosting on Gitlab and publishing on Netlify.

Netlify is dead simple to setup, even the domain name and DNS re-direction. I'm also using one of their contact forms.

As a Linux aficionado, I have to agree with you, unfortunately. I've seen this too many times over the years not to be cynical about it.
Don't know what makes you think those computers are running a chipset that was launched late in 2015.
Cloudflare architecture and how BPF eats the world
Comparisons are irrelevant; Aldi products are of quality enough that a very large swathe of the population shop there, not just poor people.
OK here:
But instead of reaching for a roll of toilet paper, an ancient Roman would often grab a tersorium (or, in my technical terms, a “toilet brush for your butt”). A tersorium is an ingenious little device made by attaching a natural sponge (from the Mediterranean Sea, of course) to the end of a stick. Our ancient Roman would simply wipe him- or herself, rinse the tersorium in whatever was available (running water and/or a bucket of vinegar or salt water), and leave it for the next person to use. That’s right, it was a shared butt cleaner. (And of course, there were other means of wiping as well, such as the use of abrasive ceramic discs called pessoi.)
It would be silly to still send an eBay item to the buyer if you accidentally put down $8 instead of $800 as a seller. Or to buy an item if you accidentally put down $800 instead of $8. In both cases I don’t see how you shouldn’t not take part in the transaction.

In the same way people will sell photos of an item for $80 while the product is normally $800. People will think they found an amazing deal but really just be out $80. You could say that was greed talking. It seems more like a scam to me.
That query is essentially a textbook example, not hard at all.
Yeah, they're not going to do it. Or do you think they could ever stand to be seen as running the exact same OS as their northern, uh, neighbors? I mean, let's get real.
How We Make Complex Decisions
Recently there was a votation in my town, to decide whether to accept a budget for renewing the schools IT infrasture.
It included office365 accounts and new computers and tablets (presumably ipads)

I wonder how different it would be were they using an OSS stack.
Any stories?
It's not so bad. I lived in a south east Asian nation for a few years with no glass windows (but large shutters). We would get a bird once week or so. Trick is to leave the window open and close off other exits.

However, with frosted glass and screens you would keep birds out.

That was way more enlightening than a wiki page on excement wands ought to be. A gem hidden in the muck so to speak.
Yes, it’s a nice high pressure jet of warm water. At least in Tokyo, toilet paper is also provided, and you can double check by wiping after. They’re definitely going in when we redo the bathrooms in our house.
> This is the use for one I’ve written: see the responsive design of the hero area on https://www.topicbox.com/ and how the video moves from the right into the middle of the content from the left column, which would be exceedingly painful to handle well without Grid, probably requiring absolute positioning and/or float.

Expertise in one thing does not imply expertise in all things.

Which is why I'm super suspicious of any corporate culture that revolves around "Rah, rah, we're the best." Too easy to get blindsided by reality.
The comment I replied to said that a "really good" engineer has to know vi, that's what I was responding to, not "nearly all good engineers in my specific area will know vi", which is a lot more reasonable.

For a Linux desktop user, including devs, I wouldn't consider not knowing vi to be that odd, given that other editors commonly ship or are a single install command away. For someone not working on Linux, it's even less expected.
That would make sense if privatization continues: the idea of nationalized free roads seems far to socialist for the rest of our society.
I grew up on a farm. Almost anyone can adapt to hard work if it's a necessity.
Do Technologists Bear Any Responsibility for the Harm Their Creations Cause?
It’s a frequent issue with Italian and French sites.
This is similar to Brazilian banks too. Both public and private.

They stoped using ActiveX in the 00s but then started requiring the user to install some rootkit-like security software that was nearly impossible to uninstall and was probably able to spy on users.

Now they some of them have an app that is basically a bundled browser accessing their regular website.
Please show me a berry picking robot that pays for itself in 10 years.

They don't exist and probably won't exist for another 25 years at that price point. Nor is it clear they'd be faster than a group of humans doing the same work.

What's more, it's just not clear to me why we'd do this. The only demand for this is by mega-farm-corps that want to eliminate all human factors to completely own the idea of making food under robotic patents. While I can appreciate such actors exist, it' not clear to me how it will be competitive with human sustenance farming in our lifespan. The low-hanging fruit of automation in the farm space has already been found. The new frontier there is in informatics and new configurations of farms (e.g., China's extremely efficient and inexpensive greenhouses, Japan's prototype vertical industrial farms). Most farming innovation now is about informatics, and only intersects with robotics tangentially.

If society was such that people who were displaced by this process were not suddenly thrown into destitution and often slavery instead of leisure and plenty, maybe we'd see wider demand. Maybe. But that's not the case. Displacing workers is seen as a net good by capitalists and the displaced are also blamed and shunned by their governments and societies. As such, it's pretty unlikely the technology could see widespread adoption without more alignment of incentives.
Selecting works in Firefox. It even behaves as you would expect if you copy-paste to e.g. Libreoffice, because the markup is still a table.

The only thing that doesn’t work is selecting cell ranges in the browser. At least in Firefox, for regular tables, you can do that by holding ctrl or shift while selecting. I guess you could restore this behavior with some Javascript.

Also no idea how this impacts any a11y related things.
India's 6-Week-Long Elections Are So Big They've Become a Tourist Draw
Sure, but there’s a big difference between less tax and no tax. You can still give tax breaks when taxes are lower.
why is this site seemingly being targeted?
This is not true in all cases, if unsure, ask, or look for any helpful hints (signs, presence of tp in garbage) Its really fine either way. Many places not in large cities are on well and septic and perfer you not flush tp unless absolutely needed. "If it didnt come out of your body, it does not belong in sewage" is a better rule of thumb. Just because many americans harmfully use their toilet as a trash can does not make it correct to do so.
I started using integrated bidet after the last move within US last year. The previous owners had that installed. It is great! Don't think you need to use wipes after.
What are those cases?
> learned to save often

I still have the habit of constantly hitting cmd-s everywhere, it’s a reflex I’ll probably never unlearn. I also cringe when I see people working on a bunch of files which have not been saved for a while or, god forbid, not at all. Completely irrational but it’s what I’ve been programmed to do for years ;)

How many of those days and hours were spent inside an air conditioned room with a bathroom and, probably, a kitchen/cafeteria?

I work in engineering for construction - when we were building Bertha's rescue shaft in Seattle the crews worked 5 months straight drilling holes and placing concrete with two crews on 12 hour shifts with only July 4 and Memorial Day off. When we excavated the shaft and repaired the machine we switched to three 8s and ran for almost another year.

Rain or shine, hot or cold, day or night. We worked that job every day. Nobody left until we switched to 8s because guys wanted to work 10s on another job - that's just blue collar work. In fact, that's the type of blue collar work that guys want because the OT pays the bills so you're right about that. The management on the project? Worked 1.5x as many hours as the crew because they would normally cover a shift and a transition. Every one salaried. Nobody left.

What the tech industry complains about for working conditions makes me laugh.
I think there are different ways of looking at this. IMO a CTO who is concerned with "fixing problems" and is working on actually fixing problems is just wrong.

The CTO is in a unique position where they have the power and I think responsibility to be looking at the "meta-problems". Have I done enough to enable others to fix these problems? As soon as you, as CTO, start getting into the muck to actually try to fix the problem you've gone too far or you haven't surrounded yourself with the right people.
>The government itself appears to be divided in opinion regarding medical issues involving Kaiser. Consequently, as before, even though we were then told by law enforcement who was doing the hacking, we can't count on assistance from our government to stop it.

1. That's fucking terrifying.

2. Russia?

3. Why is this website/foundation the target of politically motivated hacking? I'm ootl.

Not to pick on Microsoft specifically too much, but I remember seeing the hello world program for windows 3.1 for the first time and thinking, “this is not looking good.” And I was right.
These all sound like situations that aren’t worth the fuss.

I think this page might be defaulting to a pixel ratio of 1. On mobile and high-dpi devices, that automatically makes the rendering appear much more aliased, in return for much faster rendering and much less memory usage.
It is devoted to attacking a large shady medical insurance and care company. I have no doubt this ticked off an exec or investor who made this happen. I hope this rallies the streisand effect.
With more things running on Web I think they could probably do partial transition of some computers.
Presumably because the information it contained would make certain political candidates look bad.
If you look at simple polls, maybe, but with the magic of gerrymandered and electoral college politics, majorities can lose, and with the power of Citizens United and superpacs, voting can be twisted by massive established industries fighting for their existence against the natural self interest of the vast majorty.

Remote can be nice if you already have a family. Otherwise one could end up simply trading office desk and meeting rooms for their own desk and own room, still staying inside.
I've had a very different experience. In most queries, I see better or equal results in DDG compared to Google, especially since DDG digs up less SEO heavy pages. But occasionally for certain queries, Google returns better results then DDG. I use the !g clause perhaps once a day.
Every other developed country has state sponsored hackers, is it really that hard to believe Israel does as well?

I think your aloof defense of Israel is suspicious, given their track record for paying individuals to sway public discourse.
The user in question uses a nonunique pseudonym and Tor, so I'm not sure if they actually want attention. Maybe they were also the hacker. ;)
For your first query, DDG returns StackOverflow link which I think could be even more important for those searching about how to remove an item from python list.
Am I missing something, or are they actually unable to reliably host a static site? There are so many viable options (Netlify, Github pages, even the classic wordpress.com). I highly doubt the claim of professional hacker - based on the grammar in their final note and the haphazard arrangement of information in the archived site, I'd speculate they had a gaping hole somewhere and never bothered to fix it.
Intel i5 6600K on a Z170 with Windows 7 reporting in, that statement is definitely not true.

Installing is not straightforward though, you have to load drivers into the installation environment if you're using M.2 or USB 3.x.

IMHO the effort I need to learn that causes me far less frustration than having to use Windows 10. My total experience (helping colleagues/friends with their Win 10 systems) is probably less than 60 minutes in total, but one look at that start menu with actual internet-loaded ads (!) was enough to dissuade me from ever installing that OS on any of my systems. If they're greedy enough to blatantly do that, who knows what kinds of other dark patterns lurk within that OS...
Google allows third-party developers to develop Android Auto-compatible versions of their apps, but only if they offer media or messaging services. Enel X Recharge is mostly dedicated to helping drivers find charging stations for electric cars.

Why would you block apps that are direction services?
Damn the wayback machine has a terrible UX (no offence intended, its still profoundly useful. Could be easier to use though... Make it clear where other content is and possibly indicate how many links on a page are broken. IDK)

I think surveillance could be part of a smart city. But for that to be smart it would have to solve the inherent problems with surveillance. An actual smart city project would proudly announce what it did to solve these challenges.

I don't see anything on their website that does this, rather it talks about how developers can enjoy access to ubiquitous connectivity [0]. This is in stark contrast to other successful initiatives like Vision Zero that started with trying to define the fundamental problems.

Making the case for TypeScript: a letter for managers
This is fallacious
My question is: couldn't their "security firm" just make this a static site hosted on (say) S3?
Oh. I just googled "bidet".

I thought it is "integrated" in a Japanese toilet? Or do you mean this additional "installation"?
New Heinz condiment Mayochup has an unfortunate translation in Cree
Water is not universally abundant though and much more costly to transport than paper or wood.
Say what? I've lived with septic systems all my life (aside from a few years in a big city) and we've always flushed toilet paper.

Wet wipes, paper towel, tampons never get flushed. Toilet paper always does.
This. At least DDG gives you the option (prominently) to quickly and easily "nationalise" a query, if you want to, and doesn't try to impose its guess on you.

I've often found it annoyingly hard to get Google products back to a language I understand while traveling (no, the "append `&hl=en` to the URL" trick doesn't always work...)

Well, increased water consumption has a lot of ecological problems as well. Plus most of us westerners would probably balk at using cold water, so we'd waste a lot of energy heating it up too.
It seems like they are using a really weird data structure (it's not even clear whether it's sub-quadratic).

This is a textbook problem normally solved using a balanced binary tree augmented by adding a number with the size of the subtree to every node (an "order statistic tree").
The article was unusually well-written as well.
Is this just a static site? Or did it have known attack vectors like a insecure Wordpress plugin. Unfortunately this is giving me more questions than answers the longer I try to understand if this ‘hacking’ is just defacement or something more nefarious.

Politics. Wisconsin is a normally-blue state that went for Trump in 2016 but may not do so again in 2020 (as evidenced by the fact that they ejected Scott Walker). It would help Trump immensely in the state to have a big foreign company with lots of high-paying jobs open up there, which is why he and Foxconn met and put out a “things are on track!” press statement immediately after the Verge broke the initial story about the project not moving.
I once read that "Graphing Calculator" on the Mac was so reliable they'd run it in a test loop, for days on end, as a hardware check.

> I suspect the main reason behind the need for harvesting at night is that the demand exceeds the supply

The third paragraph of the article suggests otherwise:

The trees are stripped at night because cool temperatures help preserve the olives' aromatic compounds.

Again, the article begs to differ, these are migratory birds:

Ask HN: Should I switch to Java from C# for programming interviews?
All my friends ask me to choose Java or Python for programming interviews, since Silicon Valley companies do not favor C# developers. Is this true?

Will switching to Java from C# get me more interview calls?
For real, I can’t stand this kind of longform. They take three simple facts and write an article that is more a short essay.
And when the write starts with an accurate description of weather, place or person, “It was a foggy winter day in …”, “we reached a hidden part of the shore”, “is a tall woman with bright expressive eyes" you know you’ll be stuck in a fifteen minutes reading without learning anything.
That's exactly the opposite of the reaction I had which was "ugh, another example of software the human operators aren't told about doing something stupid because the author thought they understood every situation better than the people actually in the situation."

Furthermore, you don't know that it's software that's improving the safety of flights, it could be changes in procedures and training.
I'll tell you the difference since you asked; If you wanted to eat a hamburger, and i handed it to you with my hand.. you would eat it...

So they simply say that they can not put their static content on github? Awesome. The security firm that handles their issues must be evaporated from planet.
I suspect the latter, but most people take a while to puzzle it out. I got good at reading upside down for some reason, and the skill still rewards me on occasion.
Google's vision of a "smart" city is one where surveillance is the end goal, rather than a tool to improve living conditions.
Good read. I'm glad people are working on these challenges. Facebook gets the most press coverage and is the biggest platform, but if free expression and assembly is to occur online you kinda have to figure out approaches for these kinds of problems.
I largely agree. On specific crops this is a particularly worrying concern—see eg foreign crops. These are largely monoculture and are particularly vulnerable to eg disease. However, I see this as a lost battle.
Other people’s advice is generally useless, mostly because you aren’t them. You’re facing a different set of circumstances while in possession of a different set of resources.

Note that OP was specifically referencing America. If there is anywhere in the US where leaving toilet paper in the trash can is the cultural norm I haven't been there, and I've lived with septic tanks for probably half my life.
> Why is your ass different?

I don't go around touching people with it, or eating food; it's enclosed in fabric. That same fabric also makes it harder to fully air dry, which can be uncomfortable.
Unfortunately, comments like "Content that many people found useful, including medical professionals was found to be reworded and that in itself is dangerous." make me worry that one or more of the site's operators may not be on an entirely even keel.

Kaiser is not without its controversies, but to believe that they are conspiring with Joe Biden to have the government disrupt this static website that largely just links to news reports and government record is... a bit of a stretch.
For those that don't know it's a hip-hop reference to 'other people's p...y' or 'other people's p....s' (OPP in both cases). In other words, "Are you fine with pursuing physical relations with people in committed relationships?"
