I think I've seen the Mona Lisa... once? I go to the Louvre pretty often but that specific painting is far from the best thing it has to offer. If people really cared about it they'd just go see the one in Madrid [1], but for some reason people only ever want to see the Louvre one.

I get what I say makes me look like a hipster but it's really not what I mean, people should just take a hard look at touristy things and places and consider whether they're really worth the overcrowdedness, inflated prices, and banality of experience. Sometimes it is, sometimes it isn't. What does it really bring to you?

If all people were buying Teslas using government-backed loans that the gov was then responsible to collect, while Tesla got paid up front and claimed to be a non-profit, they would absolutely have the right to tell them what they could charge.

If a university is going to call itself non-profit, they should only be charging whatevers needed to cover costs of operating. Tuition has skyrocketed in the last 10-20 years, with no reasonable explanation for what aspect of operating costs has gone up enough to justify that.

Sure. But to say the Nazis weren't white supremacists because their ideology differs from today's white supremacists isn't really saying anything at all. It's still racism, just differently defined.
Thank you for what your developers have done for Rust. I wish Ferrous Systems the best in the Sealed Rust project.

Despite being entrenched, Ada needs the competition in the critical systems space. Rust is showing great promise as a competitor.

In other countries that have free education, students get very involved with politics whenever the government tries to do that.

The very best thing to create an engaged electorate is to make policies that affect the people you want voting. This is why Democrats are pushing for these changes (and Republicans resist). It's also why even though Republicans will cut the budget, and cut social programs, they always promise (not necessarily promises they intend to keep) to leave Medicare alone (old people vote, and are more Republican than young people).
Maybe you guys can host my 'hello world' article.

Blunt criticism rarely damages people. It often drives them to succeed. There are a lot of stories about the best of the best in their fields were shot down at some point in their life. Many assume the criticizers lacked insight, whereas more likely it was the criticism that drove them to their potential.

There is little more damaging in today's world than to cheer on someone who is obviously not living up to their potential.

You ever been to a legit protest? Have you been near the police line at a protest when there are thousands of protesters and hundreds of police officers and tensions are high and really not nice stuff is being said all around? And the police officers just stand there at the ready. (Sometimes they don’t and they antagonize protestors or just plain assault then, but my experience has been that is the exception.) I have immense, enormous, huge respect for those officers. Sometimes the individual officers personal beliefs align with the protesters. Sometimes not. But they stand there. Just stand there. If things get violent then they shut things down. But a lot of times it feels like things don’t get violent because they are there and people know they will shut it down if things get violent. That’s what I want YouTube to be. YouTube should be the public infrastructure that is available for people to gather and exchange ideas upon, such that most people don’t even give a second thought to the importance of having public streets available to protest on, and the police are there when the law is broken or unprotected speech is spoken. That is it. The job doesn’t pay well. It’s not a glorified role. And it’s prob pretty miserable when things get heated. But it’s a beauty to behold when you step back from it all and take it in and see what is happening.
My intent makes no difference, and the statement isn't limited to whites.
How about that ol' apostasy?
This is all true from a straight up numbers perspective, but in my experience, a fixed expense like a 3 year office lease is less stressful than managing fluid expenses like fees imposed by a dozen state governments.

I'm still very pro remote work, but people tend to underestimate how logistically expensive it can be—especially when a team gets bigger—compared to simply leasing an office and saying "Everyone works here."
This one was absolutely real.
Oh neat, I wasn't aware. Thank you.
The language is what makes me apply to work at your company with 15 years experience but paid 20% less than I would be if I had to do OO. That’s the driver.

Is the code quality better? Well maybe. Probably. But dollar for dollar you’ll do better with a good language because you’ll get much better people for your dollar.
> What it means it allows people to visit without discrimination on basis of legally protected classes like gender and race

No, the "public square" designation specifically allows people to do things like come to the mall and set up political protests and whatnot. It's not about _access_ to the mall; it's about speech protections.

Is uploading videos more akin to setting up a store at the mall, or more akin to standing on a soapbox at the mall and giving a political speech? It probably really depends on the video, on whether the video is being monetized, etc.

In particular, I feel there is an important distinction between demonetization and removal here, from an ethical/moral perspective. I can't speak to the legal perspective; I am not a lawyer.

You can argue that the Second Amendment was not written with machine guns and rocket launchers in mind. I'm going to argue that the First Amendment was not written with the foresight that nearly all of the total bandwidth of communication between all people would be done using technologies that transcend physical property.
> How many people are willing to spend thousands on an exercise bike?

Tons of them.

I've had a bunch of setups where you could plug in your road bike into a stationary setup, with virtual screen and everything, but the hassle of setting it up was always just a little too much friction.

It'd be the logical N+1 addition to my stable of more expensive road, cross and mountain bikes.

You have no idea how much people are willing to spend on their cycling hobby.

If I want a one hour work-out, going to the gym adds 2 times 10 minutes to go back and from. The bikes may already be taken. Music is blaring out of loudspeakers. There's no training included.

This is not about being lazy, it's about being rich enough to trade time and convenience for money.

Always remember to turn on warnings in PHP. I remember the joys of tracking down a mistyped variable name that PHP just instantiated and gave a null value to, which was then implicitly converted to empty string when the variable was used.
Yes and no.

Trinet is a PEO[0] and Gusto is just for managing your payroll and benefits...two very different business models. In the former, your employees technically become TriNet employees and have agreements with virtually every state (so yes they would cover the). It's just not cheap. Gusto just facilitates the process to find/manage insurance/benefits and your employees are still your employees.

For me it's the social aspect. I don't mean 'socializing' at work (although that also helps). I just mean avoiding isolation. Being physically distant from my team leads me to start feeling detached from them. But it's different strokes etc. I know myself well enough to know that I pull a lot of motivation from the sense of camaraderie I get by being in an office with people I like, so fully remote work is not for me. In fact, any more than one telecommute day per week is too much for me. Not everyone is like that.

So what I really wish for is increased flexibility.
Even if you had audio, still can't judge the noise level unless there is a reference sound there too. Such as general highway noise.
I guess I am really biased, being in Tech. Internships pay around half of what full times make, which as a college student is an insane amount of money. It's more than enough to graduate debt free.
If you're concerned about a white nationalist uprising, it seems to me that you must believe one of the following things. Either:

A) White nationalism is not in the interests of white people (perhaps because there is no such thing as white interests), but a very substantial number of white people are too stupid or immoral to come to that conclusion if allowed to discuss politics freely, and must be fed curated information to prevent them from falling under its spell, or

B) White nationalism is in the interests of white people, but we should stop them from persuing those interests for some other reason, or perhaps

C) Some other thing I haven't thought of.

Which is it?

So we know for sure really huge apes, possibly as tall as 3 meters for sure used to exist. I'm not saying they still do, they probably don't. But it's not as big of mental hurdle dor me to clear, to consider if they have lasted, than for example, to believe in flying saucers from other solar systems.

I'm not disputing that racism was at the heart of the Nazi Party, what I'm disputing is that the Nazi Party singlehandedly brought about the war. The war would have happened anyway. It would have been somewhat different without Hitler at the helm, but that Germany would give it another go was inevitable once the ink was dry on the Treaty of Versailles. There were many many more war hawks in Germany than the Nazis.
That claim assumes no externalities and no shenanigans with business models. I too would like to see a scatterplot, but I already expect GP's claim not to hold for phones, IoT, and anything bought used.

And that's also only the manufacturing part. The energy used when operating a device is not usually incorporated in purchase price.
This is historically illiterate. WW1 was a war between Imperial powers both sides of which were entirely white. WWII was caused by a German supremicist movement opposed to all non-Germans — it’s not as if the Polish are non-white.

White supremacism is supported by a fraction of a percentage of white Europeans. Support for Islamic fundamentalism is substantially higher in the Muslim world.

(Plenty of Europeans are opposed to large scale immigration, but you’re not conflating that with white supremicism are you?)
Antifa isn't? That's highly debatable.
There are, but they’re expensive. There’s Google’s Jamboard and Microsoft’s Studio Hub as a couple of examples. You could also go the iPad and Apple Pencil route and just use similar apps, or the apps for those products (i.e. Microsoft Whiteboard app), but that’s still fairly expensive if that’s all they’re used for.
One of the more effective albeit mildly dishonest to get around this on IRC is to troll the channel.

“I asked my buddy who claims to be a language C expert and he told me that it is completely impossible to accomplish Y using language C, because «invalid reason Q that makes language C sound bad».

Then all of the smug jerks who would usually start by asking what kind of idiot would ever want to do Y will instead fall over themselves to prove that Y is possible and really quite simple to accomplish, and explaining that my expert friend who said it was impossible had no idea what he was talking about.

Make sure to use a pseudonym for this one though if you want to come back to the channel and not have people still mad at you.
The main legal benefit is §230 of the Communications Decency Act, which has never required platforms to refrain from exercising editorial control in order to receive immunity (in fact, one motivation for this law was to encourage platforms to engage in exercising editorial control without incurring liability for doing this).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Section_230_of_the_Communicati...

(I can see political pressure now and in the future to say that some platforms should have some kind of neutrality and/or transparency obligation in order to get this immunity -- but under current U.S. law, they don't.)

Tangentially related request: I’m frequently very impressed with how many HN users seem to have a pretty solid grasp of physics (or maybe the right term is quantum mechanics?) and I’d love to be able to follow along but my science education more or else ended with high school.

There were creole-like languages that existed in the South, usually when Dravidian culture was mixed with Sanskrit. One famous instance is "Manipravalam", which is a blend of Tamil-Malayalam with Sanskrit. I think in Manipravalam eventually led to modern Malayalam.

This is basically what happened when Reddit banned racist subreddits. Everyone cried

"But my free speech!"

"Won't they just polarize even harder?"

"Won't they just operate in the ShAdOwS?"

Except that didn't happen. The people left for Voat, and then Voat died. Banning harmful communities works time-and-time again, and it would work for YouTube if they actually did anything. For every 'guideline update' or press release they do about content moderation, they do basically nothing. The one exception was the sketchy videos with children, but their solution has been pretty heavy-handed and reactionary. I think that's the problem: YouTube has never been pro-active in moderating its platform and it shows.

The Clever Cryptography Behind Apple's 'Find My' Feature
No file format is perfect, I've been using xz for years and I can't think of a single issue I have had. The compression rate is dramatically better than gzip or bzip2 for many types of archives (especially when there is a large redundancy, for example when compressing spidered web pages from the same site you can get well over 99% size reduction compared to 70% reduction for gzip, which means using less than one 30th of the disk space).

Lately I have been using zstd for some things since it gives good compression and is much faster than xz.

This criticism of xz just seems nit picky and impractical, especially if you are compressing tar archives and/or storing the archives on some kind of raid which can correct some read errors (such as raid5).

Those motherboards have nothing to do with ATX. The rackmountable "blades" are 19" wide and ~24" long. They use redundant custom "jet engine" PSU with custom connectors. Even their PCI-E isn't standard. They are custom built for each generation of servers and mass produced.

Even higher end workstations like the various HP "Z" series and Proliant are custom.

(disclaimer: I have my (large, ~120 Units) homelab/self_employed_datacenter on ATX Rackmount 4U cases with watercooling. I am used to buying servers for the CPU and RAM as others do in this thread. I use consumer gears too, but they die young under full C++/C embedded CI jobs 24/7. I use 4U cases because of the unbearable noise of the blades)

Some of these instructors do a great job on social media too - promoting their rides on instagram, etc. It helps build the community aspect of it.

I actually think that's a small price to pay for how many people are taking their class. 1 instructor can draw 10k participants for a single ride.

Would it be possible to handle email addresses with the + trick?

E.g. you can supply your email address as foo+bar@<domain> and mail sent to that address will be routed to foo@<domain> by some providers like gmail and protonmail.

But then that means enumerating every + address you use (I almost exclusively do this).

Thoughts? I know this came up in a HIBP forum and I think Troy Hunt took the position of too much work for 0.1% of users, many of whom are likely technical enough to use a password manager and do this enumeration if they wanted.
the article implies you can't do "gsutil sync", but you can, so I don't really understand why you wouldn't use that for syncing data.

I'm honestly not sure what point you're trying to make.

If you're saying your website is unprofitable but helped you get a 6 figure job then it isn't really "unprofitable" in a broad sense because despite not generating revenue directly it contributed to your lifetime earnings, so I don't think this conflicts with the idea of trying to capture indirect benefits by looking at lifetime earnings.

If you're saying your website is unprofitable and will never help you get a job (even as a conversation starter or indirectly through experience you obtained creating it) but is nonetheless an "experience that will set you apart" like grad school, I would disagree about whether it is really "setting you apart" after all.
I abandoned that idea a while ago. I think we could move toward a wikiocracy, which would have problems of its own but for which we have a working prototype that is reasonably transparent, responsive, and accessible and delivered a significant public good in a relatively short time frame.
