>You would have been able to find those same tools and electronics, you may have had to just spend a few minutes browsing some sort of catalog.

You may have read the gp's comment too quickly. The context was used tools and electronics from Craigslist ads.

The "used" would be pre-owned and less expensive, and "Craigslist" presumably means buying from a local seller.

Catalogs for tools and electronics are typically new items that are national in scope instead of local.

The Craigslist advertisements made him _aware_ of a local seller selling a used tool that he wanted.

What would be the non-advertising way to accomplish that same goal? Possibly driving to flea markets or swap meets every week? But the sellers with their wares on display are themselves a form of advertising. It's also an incredibly inefficient use of time to repeatedly drive to a location and walk away empty-handed compared to seeing a relevant Craigslist ad.

>some sort of catalog. The lack of advertisements wouldn't cause any serious difficulties.

Fyi in case you were unaware... Many retailers' catalogs are created with ad sponsorships to offset the cost of printing, mailing, etc.
> What if you aren't interested (or just not good) at things that are in demand like engineering, computer science, or accounting? Does that mean you don't go?

Not for those majors. And there are plenty of good jobs outside an office environment.

Part of the problem is we curtail students' search functions very early on. That inhibits edge case students from finding edge case jobs. That, in turn, reduces the dynamism of our entire economy.

I agree that society should provide more tools to help students discover something they (a) enjoy, (b) are competitive at and (c) is in demand. But the ultimate responsibility is, and should always remain, the student's.

i would say that 90% of people do not have the talent for science/engineering that is necessary to succeed. and even if they did, that would just dilute the wages of those fields and make jobs harder to come by because there would be too many jobseekers and not enough jobs.
I'm not being a cynic and a snob. There are studies showing how much simpler, more generified and more homogenous and less dynamic pop music has become over the last few decades.

It's an actual thing that has happened.

You didn't address the point of my post though, the pop music analogy was just an example you used that I felt didn't work very well because music, even pop music, doesn't harm your health or exploit addictions in the ways many advertised products do.
Healthcare executives call for Stark law reform
Goes Without Saying – Symbolicons
Does someone have a source we can use that spells this out? It does not follow from the quoted text that “Only enterprise Chrome installs will have full ad-blocking”.

One reason for the title policy on Hacker News is that original titles have actual articles attached to them. Editorialized claims do not pass muster for quality of information here (this isn't a “what can you say in 80-characters” website). If the original title is misleading or clickbait, then we still have a chance of using representative language directly from the source. We could also do that here if someone can suggest it.
Dimensions aren’t ordered like that. There isn’t a dimension which is “the fourth one”. The game has 4 spatial dimensions, and, like basically all games, has 1 time dimension.

People don’t talk about the time dimension because it is irrelevant (edit: because there is always 1 time dimension, so no new information is conveyed by mentioning that the game has a time dimension).

Do you really think, when someone talks about a “2D game” that they mean that the game world has one dimension of space and another dimension of time? Of course you do not! That would be foolish! They are obviously talking about a game with 2 dimensions of space.

The whole “the 4’th’ dimension always means time” idea is a stupid convention from bad sci-fi, which also brings us nonsense like “a journey into the seventh dimension”.

Call time “a” 4th dimension, as in, other than the 3 of space, sure, fine, people can tell what you are talking about. That just is imposing an order based on the order you are referring to things at the time.

But makes it more likely that you'd be seeing stuff that isn't there. And stating one is not paranoid does not convey any kind of useful information since the most paranoid are usually the ones who will be more convinced they aren't. Case in point, I don't know if US is being paranoid on this or not and I couldn't care less. I was just pointing out the general case of how ironic it is for someone to argue that they are not being paranoid.

Wow, that's an incredibly asinine comparison and comment. Millions of people walk around with contact lenses every day, myself included, and don't find them uncomfortable at all (or at least, much more comfortable than glasses). If they had an additional useful feature built into their lenses for no extra cost, I'm sure plenty of them would be happy to have it. If you don't like contacts, that's your issue, not mine.
Serverless solutions still need someone to write the code to run on the serverless platform. Serverless doesn't mean literally no servers, it just means the servers are 100% managed by the provider. For example Lambda AWS still needs a developer to upload the code for the Lambda to run.
Now we only need some code to opt out of Chrome hardware acceleration on a per-page basis.
Cool, I'll skip those bars if I see them using this.
I have friends who got English degrees and went to medical school, law school or got jobs as assistants and moved up the corporate ladder; they're doing great. I don't think its necessarily the degree that is super important, outside of engineering heavy fields of course. The real key is figuring out what to do next after college as early as possible and executing that plan. That is not to say that plenty of people get random degrees, have no plans and college ends up being a total waste.
> Only 27% of people in the US have a bachelor's degree

However, the post secondary attainment rate is quite a bit higher. Bachelor degrees are not the only type of post secondary attainment.

I will add that, statistically, even those with high school attainment will do better in the workplace than high school dropouts, but that is for the same reason: Those who drop out of high school have deeper issues that limit their success in the workplace. It is not because of the lack of a diploma. Each successive level of schooling filters out more and more people who are not born successful, which is why the more successful people, statistically, have higher levels of schooling.

What is not changing over time, as more and more people attain a post secondary education, is workplace success. Incomes are stagnant. Job quality is reportedly in decline. This invalidates the idea that post secondary schooling increases workplace success.

> Are you implying that the other 73% would be simply unable to attain the degree?

Bachelor's degree? Quite possibly. ~30% bachelor attainment seems to be a fairly consistent limit across the world, even where general post secondary attainment is much higher. In Canada, over 60% of the population have a post secondary education, but university attainment also tops out at approximately 25%. Which should be surprising given that Canada more than anywhere else has an extreme culture of "If you don't go to university, you will be forever stuck working at McDonalds".
> a degree is a very expensive product sold to people who, by definition, don't know much about the topic

We've also insulated everyone but the student from the consequences of the decision. Lenders, universities and counselors have zero exposure to students' lifetime earnings.

Making student loans dischargeable (and modifiable) in bankruptcy and requiring colleges who maintain an endowment to guarantee first losses on their students' loans would be good first measures.

(Uncomfortably, this will mean a liberal arts degree will become much more difficult to secure a loan for. It will mean fewer schools will be willing to print unlimited English degrees. This doesn't mean we don't need English majors. But if someone cares enough about the future of English majors, they should stand ready to hire them at a competitive wage.)

Sure, and maybe I misinterpreted a bit of what the OP was saying, but the impression I got was an almost-hostile tone of "this stuff is your fault because you couldn't settle for a cheaper school", and I do think that's reductionist.

However, if that wasn't the OP's intent then I admit fault and apologize.
A Failed Effort to Get Paid for an Open Source Project
I think you greatly underestimate a few things; one being the windows kernel size in memory, the other being the sheer volume of bit flips in high density memory.

A single 32GB SODIMM (as I have in my laptop, because it's a workstation laptop) see's roughly 12 bit-flips a month, these are correctable. This is pretty much in line with the 6-or-so bit flips I see on ECC memory inside servers (of which I have a few thousand, each having 32G modules spread over more area and enclosed in a heavy chassis, thus, less flips).

Bit flips are so common that it's even possible to have "double bit flips" in the same page, which is uncorrectable even with ECC.

So I think you grossly underestimate the percentage of bit flips, most are silent though (or attributed to bugs in software) so I understand you don't see it. If you had ECC memory you would.

My other point about Windows kernel being fairly large in terms of surface area is relatively self-evident, but I'll come back with some solid numbers, because those thousands of servers I was mentioning are all Windows.

EDIT:

As promised I checked the non-application memory usage of my fleet and the rounded value of Windows memory footprint by itself is 1.89GiB. FS Cache is also excluded.
If you have array @foo in perl, $#foo is the index of the last element of the array, which is just the size of the array -1. So if @foo is undefined, $#foo is -1.

Using a variable instead of 'foo' is a symbolic reference, so this is effectively using the symbol table as the associative array. This means that this solution also gets it wrong if your file contains a line that matches the name of a built-in variable in perl. That would be tough to debug!

If your file contains

This is the first line of the file

then during execution of

++$#$_

the result is the same as if you had written

++$#{This is the first line of the file}

So the variable @{This is the first line of the file} goes from undefined to an array of length 1, turning $#{This is the first line of the file} to 0.

Incidentally, this is why the snippet fails to work for a line repeated more than once: for each occurrence of the expression, the value returned is in the sequence -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, ... so it is only false for the second occurrence.

Using preincrement instead of postincrement means the values returned are 0, 1, 2, 3, ... which means that inverting the test makes it false for every occurrence after the first.
And yet Louisiana has one of the highest (if not the highest) rate of incarcerations per-100k in the country[0]. Perhaps ‘less adversarial’ doesn’t count for much when it comes to the business end of the law.

In my opinion Angular's story is a story of how people invent problems and then valiantly tackle them.

- We want to re-write the whole thing from scratch. In TypeScript.

- And let's use Google's Closure Compiler for JavaScript. Even though it doesn't support TypeScript, modules, or anything, really from non-Google Javascript world (at the time)

- Oh. Then... Let's create a TypeScript to Closure Translator even though TypeScript doesn't let you extend the compiler and TypeScript and Closure are in general not entirely compatible

- Oh, and we use a weird combination of annotations and templates to work, so... we need to compile our templates into TypeScript (which we need to translate to Closure-compatible JavaScript which will then be compiled further down)

- Only the whole process is abysmally slow. Let's implement incremental compilation.

- It's probably still slow, complicated, and error-prone. We know! Let's use Google's Bazel! You know, the tool to build huge codebases in parallel on clusters. Yeah, why not use that to build JS code?

- Only bazel has no support for either Closure, or Javascript, or TypeScript, so we have to build tools and integrations to work with bazel!

And the quests just keep popping up.

You don't need a whitepaper to say "Any device with over-the-air updates (or server-side processing) controlled by a Chinese company can receive anytime new software (thus a payload) controlled by the Chinese intelligence services".

This is what's implied.
That claim would need some substantiation. Not sure how you even measure that.

Certainly, if you and I started spending repeated 30 minute looking for examples of adversarial actions taken by the US and China against their people, neither of us would run out of examples before tomorrow.

So what are you claiming exactly?
Under political goals of the removal of regulations and privatization, this will increasingly become the norm. Under private interests, you have no fundamental rights because the writers of founding document of the United States didn't not foresee the level of control the rich and corporate would truly have in this modern era. It offers no protection against abuse by powerful private interests that it does against government.

Personally, I think we need to make sure that college does not force you into debt for decades. The rise in tuition over the last 30 years is completely nuts. I think we also need to reevaluate what we really need from people graduating. I think there needs to be a serious discussion around how badly you need a STEM degree for some jobs. Do you need a CS degrees to test an application, probably not.

This leads me to another problem, because everyone wants to get a degree in a STEM field for a better job, the pool is diluted. I've met several people with degrees in CS where I seriously question if they actually ever attended class. (Actually from what I've seen the profitable jobs are really just in TE, science and math in undergrad seems to be little better than an English degree as far as decent job prospects.)
It's not being intentionally buried, but the rapid drop in interest is a testament to the utter dullness of "A response to feedback on the proposed changes in Manifest V3"

"Manifest V3" is jargon, which is a big problem in HN. See Show HNs that don't really explain what is the thing being introduced.

The Response -> feedback -> proposed changes chain is verbose. The three concepts are almost a single concept (changes) wrought as present -> past -> future.

"A response to feedback on the proposed changes in Manifest V3" is a characteristically Google-internal-y [0] way to say "Update on coming changes to Chrome extension APIs".

[0]: My unscientific feeling is that a lot of engineers at Google write about projects as if the audience is other Google engineers. It's not out of malice, but it's convenient when you don't have to explain the full rationale for a change.
I wonder what the balance between keeping devices updated on a medical device, and keeping them from updating is?

Also sending the high definition photos to China won't appear on anybody network traffic? You just need 1 person to detect it and you have the some kind of proof(though when a similar thing happened with Amazon Alexa it was blamed as a bug and not espionage).

I did Rails + Mithril.js (5kb react-like SPA) and then switched to Rails + Turbolinks + a mix of vanilla js, stimulus.js, and abusing ajax & js.erb.

The biggest things I miss from the original setup:

1) it's easy to write integration tests when rails is nothing but an api

2) components. it's just way easier & nicer to work with than rails views/partials.

I thought rails + turbolinks + stimulus etc would be simpler in terms of code/maintainability, but I'm not so sure anymore.
Wouldn't the same model PBS/NPR work for print news as well? Some funding from the government but most from donations.
I think it should also cause us to look into why tuition has gotten so expensive. I think society and a lot of individuals would benefit from more non-trade education. And it's not like, say, an ethics class needs to be expensive.

> If the world were reset somehow, you'd end up with a completely different set of religious beliefs that would nonetheless have a similar role as a social bonding agent, whereas you would have a decent chance of the same research being done again if the scientific method does end up being developed in the world.

This statement is made from the assumption that God doesn't exist and that all religions are equally false. From my perspective, I would argue that if you reset the world, yes, purely man-made religions would disappear and be replaced by different (man-made) ones, but ultimately God's true religion would always re-emerge.

For example, in my completely biased opinion, religions like Scientology and Buddism would disappear on world reset to possibly be replaced with some roughly equivalent man-made belief systems under different names (or not). But Christianity (insert the "true" religion here) would persist on world reset (perhaps even under the same name), and the entire Abrahamic-family of religions would re-emerge under different names. They might not be known as "Judaism" or "Islam" or "Protestantism" but basically God would call Abraham-esque prophets to establish his religion, the religion would go off the rails, false prophets would emerge, people would try to restore the church to it's previous state, God would re-establish with new prophets, etc., and you would be left with hundreds of similar prophet-based religions all in the same family of religions, all worshiping the same God, all acknowledging a common set of scripture (which would have the same core religious beliefs as the pre-reset world did), all acknowledging a common set of (ancient) prophets, but with varying dogmatic differences due to aforementioned corruptions.
