I am full time employed and am not planning to leave my day job (though, you never know ;-) I prefer medium sized (10-50k) contracts and specialize in 3D app development, VR, AR, and prototyping. I am highly responsive, communicate well, and am comfortable managing projects from start to finish, including hiring and managing small teams.

Of course, that's why YouTube insists on keeping recommendations despite the horror stories. It works 98% of the time. But .2% of the time it assembles a playlist of content finely tuned to the tastes of a pedophile.

But you can't take the smooth without the rough. The plus side of the recommendation algorithm is great, but is it worth the bad side?
That assertion seems harder to prove than the assertion that a 30% built-in cost leads to higher prices.
Object Calisthenics in Golang
Facebook/Google care about offering services to everyone on the planet, not just the richest that have more disposable income than most people have in lifetime savings. Compared to Apple that cares about you only to make you pay ever-increasing amounts of money to maintain membership in its closed ecosystems, and blocks off any sort of mixed-ecosystem use, it's a refreshing twist.
It’s only not going to be pretty if you don’t take into account 30-40 years of technological advances. Healthcare advances and food science advances will both usher in higher quality that is more accessible at lower prices. Advances in energy show make energy cheaper. Eventually the boomers will die, putting lots of housing on the market making it available to millennials.

Between that you’ve got most major costs addressed, housing, healthcare, food and utilities.

Retirement may not be achievable at 65 anymore but they are going to be hitting 65 much healthier than any prior generation so working past 65 won’t be the same burden as it was for someone who did hard physical labor their entire lives.

They are literally going to be the generation that has had it easiest, but they are going to feel like they’ve had it hardest.

The biggest problem isn’t savings but the fact that so many eschew the type of labor necessary to maintain the infrastructure they are inheriting. Without plumbers, electricians and other technical trades, much of the infrastructure they inherit may have greatly deteriorated due to long overdue deferred maintenance.

The avenues in Manhattan actually flow really well and the lights are very well timed. You can get from downtown to uptown almost without stopping. Personally I don't think cyclists should be mixed with cars in Manhattan especially when there's already dedicated bike lanes. But I'll probably change my opinion once I start commuting via bike :)

Yes. The tracking number showed the package was in the US. That's why this is a non-story. FedEx is also a US based private company. Not all shipping pairs are point to point, it would totally make sense for rare routes to exchange mail at a US hub.

I'm not sure why this story is getting traction in major publications, the premise is rediculous. It's like shipping through Royal mail and complaining your package to Asia stopped in the UK
Wait are you using the “Can I Kick It” analogy to argue in favor or against greed stopping art?

Because that example is a really weird grey area. The label didn’t clear one of the most obvious samples of all time. The original artist did not prevent them from releasing the derived work, but Tribe didn’t get paid for one of their classics.

I’m not sure what to think of that story.
What about integrating emacs into aerc? You can set your EDITOR to emacs and replace aerc's default keybindings with a more emacs-inspired set. Send me your binds.conf and I'll add it to contrib in case anyone else wants an emacs-esque setup, too!
Love the idea, and I really will give this a go as a daily driver.

Just a small feedback: I had trouble with one of the requirements -> scdoc, didn't know what exactly that is (Googling didn't help), so might be worth to provide a direct link in the README.md to https://git.sr.ht/~sircmpwn/scdoc/
There should be a startup or something that you can call to get this taken care of. I bet there are a lot of people with plenty of money and no desire to deal with this stuff.
A lot of people are disagreeing with you but I certainly concur. Sure, there are ways to work around it, but this is a $6,000 computer and you could get more storage than this in the 2004 iMac.

I refuse to believe that meticulously emptying out your trash and downloads folder so that you can continue to squeeze by with 256GB is now acceptable for ultra high end, "I don't know a single person who can afford this" computing.
Ask HN: Which companies are hiring “real” (not US only) remote?
I'm looking for a new job, and I would love it to be remote. But almost all of the remote job postings that I come across are "remote (US)", and I live in Europe. Two of the companies that didn't mention this and I applied to ultimately told me that I should relocate to the US for a remote position (?!)

So my question is, which companies are hiring remote, or where is a good place to look for remote jobs that aren't US only?
> UTF-8 e-mail address support?

hard pass on this as it encourages dark patterns.
As someone who doesn't want to completely throw away their workflow and muscle memory, I consider that a feature.
That reminds me of when my university kept sending me a $0 bill every month after I graduated. They kept sending them, so eventually I wrote a $0 check and sent it back in the business-reply envelope. I guess they were happy I had paid my bill because they finally stopped sending them.
That they were about to relocate their office.
Per what spec? Having “a+b” deliver to address “a” is Gmail specific, as far as I know.
That kind of work is more on the order of seconds - not minutes. And it obviously requires a service-side component (push notifications) while this doesn’t.
scdoc is probably available in your Linux distro's package manager, and aerc is designed to be packager-friendly - so eventually the idea is that most users will apt install aerc, rather than build it themselves.
Then it 'supports' exchange. \o/
> I'll point out that I didn't and couldn't have downvoted you as none of my throwaways have >=500 karma

I'll take you at your word.

You want to just drop in and drop bombs and pretend that the information you are presenting is in some sense useful. Other folks pointed out that you are wrong.

But you also want the reputation. You want the respect for revising your opinion.

You're you from your perspective, but from everyone else's perspective you're not you, you're the basest troll that has ever posted on HN, because you have no rep, no history, not provenance.

It's funny to me, because you want it both ways. It's pretty hilarious.

I shouldn't feed the trolls. I know better. Enjoy being a complete waste of time to everyone that glances at your writing!

> how we have a functioning society with such underfinanced and overworked police, even in the well to do urban areas.

The answer is that we don't.

If we did have better functioning police systems, you would see a lot more growth in a lot of Indian cities. The biggest cities escape the tyranny of local powers simply because people living in these cities accumulate vast financial resources to essentially circumvent Government services (e.g. you will see private guards everywhere, gangs running protection rackets that try to ensure that "Justice" is served etc.).

This lack of basic government services and infrastructure can be crippling, especially to businesses and people looking to make long term investments.

Twin ConnectX6 adaptors, gives you 800Gbps, or ~1GB/s, at an absolute theoretical max.

It's good to see that local storage has finally returned to the reasonable state of being faster than network storage. SATA / SAS was a long, slow period ...
I used to live in Gávea at the base of Rocinha in Rio and although I used to spend most of my time in the city, I used used to go hang out with my buddy Marcos up in Laborieux, the morro de Rocinha, from time to time. Am I allowed an opinion?
Not at all. You've always been able to run your own software. At worst, it's toggling one option off in preferences that stays off forever thereafter.
As the article goes into, the consumer welfare standard that you mention is an interpretation of the Sherman Act, not a cut-and-dry statutory phrasing. Changes in either judicial thought or legislation could still put "big tech" in danger, even if they don't run afoul of the consumer welfare standard. I would hope that questions of competition and influence would be asked in the digital age, hopefully without the malign influence of the media and "whiny competitors."

Beautiful. Homes for the home-less, who'da thought that'd work better than spending $25K/capita pushing them around all year long?

"... housing comes first, services later. Clients do have to pay some rent — either 30 percent of income or up to $50 a month, whichever is greater."

And those homes don't have to be big, sprawling, 1000-footers either. An address, bathing, electric, a share in the cost ... is a leg up and a way to escape the terrors. Has to be a hell of a relief.
The iPad as a tablet feature is pretty amazing. Curious to see what impact that will have on the tablet market.

Always nice to see Apple push further on both the privacy and accessibility front too.

The limits functionality is new to me. As a parent (with children too young for devices) it is appealing to have services like this by default, so that we can set the expectations early when we do introduce them. Even if it's not Apple, this will drive it into other manufacturers etc.

> macOS Catalina runs in its own read-only volume, so it’s separate from all other data on your Mac, and nothing can accidentally overwrite your system files. And Gatekeeper ensures that new apps you install have been checked for known security issues before you run them, so you’re always using good software.

This is particularly interesting too. I can definitely see the support implications here, but it will be interesting to see how tools like homebrew etc. play in this read-only world.

Some pretty good computer science got done before devops was gifted to the world.

And some pretty good science got done before computer scientists were gifted to the world.

I'm genuinely skeptical that modern software engineering practices are a good way of thinking about reproduction in science. Even in computer science. There's a lot that scientists can learn from software engineering (and in fact I've helped run workshops in the past on exactly this topic), but science is not engineering.
Ooh, and they're throwing in dash too!

> why, they don't even get to have a 30 year MORTGAGE!

Interest rates are so God damn high in Brazil you can't really take a mortgage. People save up for their entire lives before buying a home, for the most part. Or you hope to inherit something from your parents, if you're upper middle class. Or alternatively move to a really shitty neighborhood / city so you can afford that (see e.g. Recreio dos Bandeirantes in Rio de Janeiro where all the affluent "Zona Sul" folks have to move to so they can afford a cheaply built apartment)

They're very comparable (I'm a paid user of both). I've discovered realms of amazing music through the recommendation engines of both of them.
My personal opinion is that there isn't a quality alternative. I don't think that these platforms are the least bit beneficial to the well-being of their users. It's a very unfortunate fact that I don't see them going anywhere anytime soon, the idea of online 'social networks' is firmly entrenched in modern culture and has become ubiquitous in our daily lives. I think that antitrust should be just the beginning, I feel that more needs to be done at a legislative level to set reasonable limitations on the invasiveness of the companies behind such networks. Part of this would be closing the legislative gaps that make regulations difficult to enforce against such companies.
This issue comes from tcell, which has a baked-in terminfo database. I'm also not sure about the state of the terminfo database in general on OSX... in any case, I plan on improving terminfo support in tcell at some point.

Every interactive program evolves until it contains Emacs.

Even Emacs.
For a lot of "pro" usage scenarios, the local environment will have one "LAN" that has Internet gateway, and various local services on it, plus a dedicated storage network using a separate switching infrastructure (and thus, separate NIC port on your machine).

WiFi is not really an option, for performance but also often for security reasons.

So yes, you'll have two cables from wall-jacks to the machine for networking.
"You can set your EDITOR to emacs and replace aerc's default keybindings with a more emacs-inspired set."

I appreciate the suggestion, but unfortunately that's not even remotely adequate.

By integration I mean exposing every single function and UI element of the client to Emacs, so that they can be bound, wrapped and extended as needed. Ideally, these functions would be written in eLisp, so they themselves could be modified and customized to taste while leveraging the enormous Emacs eLisp ecosystem.

Emacs email clients have this sort of integration, and it is what gives them tremendous flexibility and power.
