There may be more job openings, but based on my admittedly small sample size of one (myself), it appears that companies aren't acting like there's a lot of positions to be filled. The vast majority of my applications go unanswered, and when companies do respond, there's no real sense of urgency at all.

There is no definition of "bail out" that is applicable to an organization simply shuffling money around its own budget.
Or roughly $72,000-73,000 per household, assuming 127 million households and working with the numbers in your comment.

If we stole all the money from every 10%er household, who control 70% of aggregate household wealth, we'd have 70% of $93 trillion (2016 value) or $65.1T. Spreading that across 90% of 127M households nets about $564,500 per.

The stuff that [we're aware that] New York Times gets wrong in the modern era barely even holds a candle to what they got wrong in the past.

Particularly the case where the NYT was publishing Soviet genocide denying propaganda as though it were fact. The responsible "journalist", Walter Duranty, even won a Pulitzer Prize for his service as Stalin's uncritical mouthpiece. The NYT didn't denounce him publicly until 1990. For decades, Holodomor denial in the west was defended and perpetuate by people citing the New York Times.

You are bullshitting against fats and vegetables, for what reason I do not know.

But nuts and seeds are NOT "almost 100%" percent fat.
They range from fat contents of 30g to upwards 70-75g per 100g (walnuts, for example, are on a higher end of this, so are hazelnuts. Almonds, pistachio are the middle ground, while peanuts - technically legume, I know -are on the lower side.

The rest? 8-10 percent carbs, 10g+ fiber (some contain less, some much more), and anything between 10 to 30% protein (highest ones, again are almonds and peanuts, and sesame seeds).

This is very easy to verify, you just need to do a quick googling. I do not know why anyone would clame this. Some of your other claims are going to be harder to look up, so I would like some citations, like the ones with olive oils STICKING TO YOUR ABDOMEN :P
> I am asserting that, given the fairly obvious clientele, it is reasonable to assume that principled fealty to free speech was not the driving motivation in Gab's creation.

Well, I believe that free speech was the reason for Gab's creation, they were getting censored from other social platforms so they built their own. It just so as happens that over time they have attracted vile users to the platform who have way more unpopular views.

So what are you really trying to say here?

Cool link, thanks I'll read it.

I'm not actually sure right now. Somehow I think that if you make those extra widgets without using more energy, then the extra people who buy and use those extra widgets will end up using more energy in doing so, and their extra purchase and use will, however incrementally, grow the economy as a whole a tiny bit, which will use that much extra energy.

So if it's growth, then it can't be static energy.

But somehow also I think that you can have static energy and not call it growth, but development, or something else like someone said before (maybe you).

What's development? I don't know. But maybe it's something like we produce 1000 widgets with more intricate decorations on them. And use no more energy doing so.

I grant that it's pretty confusing. And that's how it seems to me right now.

Thanks

Renaming gets interesting too. The person requesting the rename would have to also chase down all the off-shoots of HN that cache and re-display all the messages in different formats.

I haven’t tried Pi-Hole yet but this was the impetus I needed to decide to set it up tonight.

I commented on a different post last night, that I was a bit shocked and saddened to see their Patreon is only pulling in $1,700/mo.

Do they have another significant revenue stream? Is it just too much hassle to bother signing up to Patreon to commit to even $1/mo? Do they have something on the Admin panel where users can click to pay directly?

I’m not judging, I don’t even have a Patreon account. I’m curious how such an apparently crucial and useful piece of software — one that no doubt is responsible for providing millions of dollars of value to its users, and perhaps blocking tens of millions of dollars in ads — how can the project be sustainable after 53 releases and 2,700 issues on Github while pulling in less than $24k/yr?
I have an old desktop in my basement running Ubuntu with PiHole (and some other things). My router is still the DHCP server, but distributes the PiHole machine as the first DNS server. I haven't noticed anything being slow.
That's been SOP for Google for at least the past year or so, if not more. Consider the titles used to announce shutdown and massive schedule and feature curtailments of Google+:

Cloudflare scaled up massively so quickly when they started offering cdns a decade ago.

I judged the company in a negative light when their ceo or cfo wrote an open letter rationalizing their ban silencing some obnoxious website over political belief virtue signaling.

I don’t even remember what the obnoxious or offensive website was but I know that offensive speech is protected speech.

> Unit tests will actually make bad code even worse because it will be even more difficult to change the underlying logic

Objectively false, if not having tests is better than having tests then delete the tests. Instant improvement.

This fact leads to the conclusion that the value of having tests is greater than or equal to the value of not having tests, in all cases.
Amenities and education for your kids, mostly. Big cities have more than just jobs.

I think resort communities might do better, like Bali, Jackson Hole, Bend, Gulf Shores, but not Hawaii, COL is just too high. Also, decent schooling for kids is still a problem in those areas.

I am curious why the media seems to romanticize the country life and eschew city life, when the growth of cities and mega cities are continuing trends of the last 70 years. It seems that for the people with less resources, cities with their abundant jobs and cheaper resources are where they should be. The countryside and suburbs seems to be more for people with more resources and money, which makes sense because it is far away from the centralized hub of finance and logistics of the cities.

And yes, you may not be able to afford a house in the city in the beginning, when a house is priced at 100x rent. But not all cities have housing shortages, move to those cities that don’t. Or move to the countryside once you can afford it. No one ‘deserves’ to live in the countryside
It's a partly a problem of semantics, really. You can't really say it's a fusor runs at >45K because you're not in thermodynamic eq. (and therefore, there is no T).

Likewise a laser runs at "negative" T, but which is hotter than infinity T (pop inversion happens at T<0). There's no contradiction because T is again defined in eq., so we're just abusing terms.

So if we got net energy out of a fusor it would, for all practical purposes, be "cold" fusion. In fact, it doesn't have a T at all ;)

Working for the NSA doesn't necessarily entail working on mass civilian surveillance, which I think is where the moral and ethical concerns are concentrated. They still do military and diplomatic intelligence, and defensive security for US many government systems, which I think only the most pacifist would have a problem with.

You keep moving the goalpost.
Lets just assume we are on a caloric budget and we deal with fat being fat, so we can, like good third graders in math, just count the calories.

No more wiggling around with "too many calories" and "you need to burn calories to transform them to carbs" and then "oh, but it also sticks to your abdomen". Pick one. Stick to that one, and argue with that.

Also, yeah, since, for example, coffee is the highest source of antioxidants in the western diet for many people, I am willing to make a bet that sunflower oil will going to be their highest source of E-vitamin (300% of your required daily amount per 100ml). Olive oil will be the highest source of Vitamin K and both Vitamin E for people who do not GORGE on greens.

In the US, the olive oil wont be the highest source for Vitamin E only because peanuts are more abundant in them.

It is not a bad thing. I will never criticize a company for making money or an entrepreneur for grabbing opportunities.

I don't like the hype around Elon Musk and I think Hyperloop is a borderline scam (I can detail if you want). However I also think the success of PayPal, Tesla and SpaceX are well deserved. With them the world is a better place and Elon Musk is a richer man, that's capitalism working as intended. That subsidies helped creating a company that makes nice electric cars and solar panels is the reason the subsidies exist in the first place.

My previous point wasn't a criticism.

Probably some, but the point is just that there's a difference between the working rich and the idle rich. Obviously it's not a black and white thing, but someone who becomes a millionaire after working their butt off for years as an entrepreneur and selling their company is having a very different experience of life from someone who inherits everything and whose only experience of business is as a figurehead— there are lots of examples of this, but current populist premier of Ontario Doug Ford is a good one. Jared and Ivanka are probably in this bucket too, though perhaps to lesser degrees.

Ride horses, hang out with friends, play video games, go hiking, pay music with friends, cook food, shoot guns, watch Netflix, play poker with friends. My wife grew up in a small town and she always found stuff to do, it's really not that hard depending on what you like.

Edit: to add some more specific flavor my wife liked to ride horses, play her guitar, swim, and watch TV. Her parents were pretty busy but they would hang out with friends and liked to cook and play in what was essentially an Irish folk band in the area.
>Generally, that seems to be the expectation of today.

I'm not sure it's the expectation in most places. A decade or more in one place certainly seems (much) rarer than it used to be. But resumes that show routine hopping from job to job every year or two is still going to raise eyebrows at a lot of companies. Perhaps less so in Silicon Valley.

And, as you say, less than a year usually indicates either a company that shut down/shrank or some serious expectations mismatch on the part of either the company or the employee.
Seriously? I'll try it out right now.
> I live near a small town on the Fife coast directly across from Edinburgh and all of the neighbouring coastal towns seem to be doing well - the ex-mining towns 10km away not so much. Main constraint on development being local planning authorities rather than demand.

If I had the choice between living on the coast, and living in an ex-mining town, I'm probably going to pick the coast (other things being approximately equal). The coast is scenic; ex-mining areas are usually not scenic. That is, I think that demand is exactly what's making the coast do better. The local planning authorities may be an effect rather than a cause - the ex-mining areas may know that they don't have as much to work with, and therefore may have less that they can realistically do.

Yes, but chromium isn't removing the feature completely- since it's still allowed to be used in enterprise versions the code is all still there. Brave has already committed to making sure it continues to work.
I agree, there are cultural and market issues at play. It should as simple as would you drive this person y/n, or anything less arbitrary than the current. I spent some time in foreign markets where Uber no longer exists and my rating took a hit for not knowing the language or being a foreigner, or something. There should be a way to at least correct that.

Add to that, in the states now some drivers will rate lower if you don’t tip. I mostly tip and the one and only time I’ve rated a driver low was when he was blasting music, twitching and doing some disco move right turns that were frightening to everyone in the car.

I don't ever want a platform attempting to change my behavior. I'm quite happy with how I make decisions and I'm super uninterested in having other people's morals and opinions covertly enforced on me through data manipulation, user interface decisions, hiding of opinions...

I don't use dating apps but this statement goes for all platforms. Don't mollycoddle your users. You are not a moral authority. You do not know what your users want better than they do. This is not an opportunity for you to push your ideology on people that may like your platform for non-ideological reasons.

There's way too much editorializing and desire to editorialize going on in our industry. We need to collectively take a step back and realize that not only are we as technologists not responsible for adjusting people's point of view, attempts to do so are amoral, unjust, ineffective and just bad user experience. Give people what they want and get out of the way.
