"I don't get it! My hands are probably bigger than 95% of all humans, and I don't think a phone needs to be much bigger than the SE."

May be mentioned elsewhere in this thread but it likely is diminishing eyesight that drives the bigger displays and not hand size. My wife has small hands but isn't able to see the smaller screens (4") so choses the bigger screen phones. I suspect that's the same choice for a lot of people in their 40s and beyond.
I would also appreciate if they worked on restoring the original addon capability they had up to 2016 (where you add keyboard shortcuts) before they go showboating.
I would not work at Facebook regardless of the paycheck. Granted I doubt they want a conservative veteran working for them so the feeling is mutual.
Very possibly I misunderstand both you and Dijkstra. What else could he be referring to when he claims "[the name of 'programming languages'] invited the psychologists in, who had nothing to contribute, and it seriously delayed the recognition of the benefits of viewing programs as formulae to be derived."?

The fact he specifically picks on COBOL -- exclusively formulated to communicate well to humans, not computers -- seems to favor my interpretation.

I could be mistaken, of course. He does speak of "anthropomorphizing inanimate objects", which does favor your interpretation. Or maybe it's mixed?

I wouldn't mind non-competes if the companies were required to provide something in return, e.g. valuable job training. I'm guessing that's how they started, but now they're just an easy way to hold employees hostage, suppress wages, and reduce competition in the labor market.
The combination of IP addresses and package sizes is way too revealing. That's why APT supports Tor as a transport protocol.

Twitter to put notice on politicians' tweets that break its rules
I actually think it's a great compromise, but I do wish users could see which Trust and Safety partner determined each violation on a tweet by tweet basis.

I.e. Twitter in partnership with [GLAAD; ADL; etc] determined this tweet contained [violation]. Then we could quantify, drill down and get some great insights.
We've been down hard for over an hour.
Please don't cross-post like this. Repetition lowers the signal/noise ratio. Also, it makes merging the threads a nightmare.
I really hope some of the people who crap up 4x4 related web forums with comments like "lockers are way too harsh for a daily driver" got stuck in that but that would be too good to be true.

I would contend that the reason for that is that none of the engineers involved get paid more if that experience is different.
There is constant misinformation about non-compete agreements in CA, and the HN crowd show know about this, members of which might be involved in the sale of a business. If you sign a non-compete as part of an acquisition agreement, and you benefit financially from the sale, your non-compete is enforceable. CA courts have held to this, as in these cases the buyer is being deprived of the benefit of the acquisition.

Edit: the original title of this post was "States Such as CA, Montana, North Dakota and Oklahoma, Ban Non-Compete Clauses". As editorialized, the title was presenting misinformation.
The problem will arise when twitter selectively enforces these rules on people with only one political stance.

Hypocrisy is a common human trait, and one that should be accounted for in such a process - it's hard to look at Twitter's past actions and assume they'll do this one perfectly.

Do you claim the single-threaded program will speed-up on single-core?

Do you claim the multi-threaded program will slow-down on single-core?

An alternative is to move back to slower propeller planes, maybe with electric motors (improving over Tu-95?) but that would increase flight times.

I just switched to the current Android Firefox a few weeks ago and I must say I find it very hard to go back to Chrome. uBlock and Dark Reader make the phone browsing experience a remarkable amount more pleasant.

Chrome's general UI interaction is definitely more polished and snappier all around, but browsing mobile with good ad blocking, and not getting blasted in the face by stark white pages more than covers for Firefox's warts.
Out of curiosity, what orgs are you comparing us to?

When you install Firefox Preview, tracking protection is enabled by default. This is recently true for Firefox Desktop as well.

I'm in the same position, I think. I used to be a SOLIDhead but I find the adherence to SOLID increasingly off-putting.

Primarily code should do the thing simply and obviously. The best attribute of any code, in my view, is that it's easy to delete when the requirements change or you have to pivot. There are some fundamentals of good design when writing code (prefer immutability, minimise shared state) which help to make code easier to reason about but overeager application of SOLID or design patterns tends to result in the wrong abstractions that grow out of control when they need to be worked around because they don't fit.

If you write the code with YAGNI and KISS in mind any applicable pattern tends to become obvious over time.

I've been using Firefox on Android for about a year now, and it is great, except one major problem. Google news site (news.google.com). News I believe uses my entire phone's RAM and starts swapping (I am totally guessing, does Android use swap?) because the app will become unresponsive for about 2 full minutes while the page is rendering. Closing and re-opening a tab in this state actually breaks the app FYI (all other tabs freeze as well). Scrolling will give low resolution visuals below the fold. Horrible experience on google news. Actually all google properties are PAINFULLY slow. Is that on purpose Google? I got around it by installing Firefox Focus, and that seems to load google news quite fast, but Focus is like a permanent incognito mode, so that is quite inconvenient in itself. So now I just use Focus for google news and regular Firefox for everything else. Hopefully there will be performance improvements to come. My phone is an older Huawei Honor 8 so maybe I should just buy a new one... but the infrared on it is so great!
Google Maps can now predict how crowded your bus or train will be

The version I heard is "If you knew X's problems, you wouldn't trade your problems for theirs." Not universally true, but goes a long way .

In the town I live, there was an incident a few years ago with a teenager who got access to his mother’s handgun. She had the gun in a gun safe, with a four digit combo. The teen came home every day after school and started brute-forcing the password. 0000, 0001, and so on. He was determined and patient, and it worked.

To be fair, I think I trust a New-Balance-wearing dad manning a grill on his patio (seen in the video) than I do the average restaurant kitchen. I think I should be able to opt-in to it too, just show me some sort of badge that indicates the presence of health inspection.

I lived in a nice area of a Mexican city that used a sudden requirement for health inspections to eradicate the entire culture of pop-up food carts and people bringing a large pot of tamales from their home to sell. It was a heavy loss. Health inspections are so infrequent that it verges on "health theater" anyways. Once again, I simply think it's best to show people when the last health inspection was done (if at all) and let them decide.

Nobody is saying this policy is political bias. The problem is with who gets to define things like discrimination.

As an example, there are those who believe any form of border security, or any enforcement of existing immigration law is discrimination and immoral. Which side defines the terms used is absolutely a form of bias.
The proof that finite automata can’t implement backreferences is actually extremely simple: you need to remember all the text matches as part of any given capture group, in order to match it again as a backreference. This requires unbounded memory.

When Atlanta iced over a few years ago, there were many similar predicaments made all the worse when the driver of the last car in the stack would get themselves stuck trying to do a three-point turnaround and trap everybody ahead of them.
Agreed. I hastily installed FF Preview and then immediately uninstalled it when I couldn't find where to install uBlock. They shouldn't have launched, or made an announcement, without some form of adblocking (native or plugin).

I understand that it's a testing release, but they stand to lose out on many testers and users. While I am perfectly willing to be a guinea pig and use this as my daily driver, I am passionately unwilling to browse with ads (especially on a mobile device where data is more expensive).

I am likely part of the vast majority of potential testers/users. There probably won't be a "hey, we support plugins/blocking now" announcement and, even if there will be, it probably won't be as visible as this announcement.
I'll bite, just to answer the non-rhetorical part of your rhetorical question. There are four interesting aspects of what you wrote.

1. The implied belief that there is a cosmic measuring stick for how good someone has it, but, more importantly, that this measuring stick matters. The judging accomplishes nothing, other than to let the person judging feel internally superior for a moment. The more relevant issue is letting that judgement cloud any rational decisions you need to make later with respect to the people you're judging.

2. If you're making policy decisions, then this cosmic measuring stick of suffering would matter (like taxing gardening services, I guess?), but are you making policy decisions?

3. Do you need something from them, and does that inform how you'll behave towards them regardless of what you actually think of them? Startup founders who didn't come from rich backgrounds experience this all the time around VC's. But it's not really possible to keep the functional motivation and the desire to fit in entirely separate.

4. Are they just complaining because shared lightweight misery makes for fun socialization? People who aren't rich do that too. The content may just be a function of their environment.
After spending years messing with RPM packages in the sysadmin world, I now breathe a sigh of relief with Arch/pacman. Building/maintaining/installing RPMs is painful compared to Arch or Debian's dpkg.
>You can hardly blame anyone for blocking Tor traffic.

Yes I can and do. It's bad enough that some websites won't let you do certain things over Tor, but preventing access to the website entirely is unacceptable. I made this account and comment entirely over Tor.

I don't see how it's okay to block Tor. That generic claim is made, but how are your spam measures doing if you couldn't handle Tor spam?

>You might not be using it for abuse but a large volume of abuse originates from it.

There is infinitely more ''abuse'' coming from Google, and yet it seems most every page I visit contains Google malware.

On principle, I hold the idea that Tor should be a first-class citizen and not disadvantaged in any way. Notice that Google's ''HTTP/3'' is over UDP, which Tor doesn't work with; I don't find that a coincidence.

Sounds like your conferencing system has large jitter buffers. If your internet is stable, you should be able to reduce the buffer.

To test your network, go to https://www.dslreports.com/speedtest and see if you have significant jitter or bufferbloat. If your rating is an A, then your good to go, otherwise its time to clean up your local network :P

You're gonna have to back that initial assertion up with something more solid than 'everything not mandated by the state is a manifestation of a joyous anarchic impulse' or similar pseudophilosophy that regrettably dominates anarchist literature and marks it as an erotic orientation rather than a political position.
Yeah, but you won't build a business on that, you'll add GPS trackers, make renters show you their drivers licenses etc. A captcha isn't "wrong" in general in my mind, it's just not something you add and you're all done, and it shouldn't be your first line of defense. It can be part of a multi-pronged anti-abuse strategy, but it's a very tricky part: it doesn't offer a lot of protection but creates a lot of friction for actual, legit users. Running a DNA test on somebody can be a good way to verify their identity. But asking for their ID card and looking at the picture is a lot quicker, cheaper and less intrusive.

I don't see captchas a lot, because I'm not frequenting sites that use them. A friend of mine apparently does, so often that he pays for a captcha solver while he's sitting in front of his computer. He just can't be bothered to play Google's mind games, so he'd rather pay a few cents a day to not deal with it.

We've come to the point where humans are paying for services that were created for bots so they can bypass technological hurdles that were meant to tell humans from bots.
My friend always orders from this wing place via the app and one night he confessed that he doesn't know if the restaurant actually exists (the address didn't seem to suggest it did). All he knew was the wings were pretty good and they were a reliable late night food option. I tried the wings once, they were pretty good.
>Those "hipster bubbles" are the areas where most tech innovation is happening.

I can see why you would think that when that's the only place in which you are looking.
Regarding 'start up's:

I have a project idea that i think is pretty good and think could actually be useful to people and fill a niche, but:

* Nobody close to me I mentioned it to seems really interested.

* I am not 100% sure it would actually work/be useful/generate revenue/...

* I work full time and don't really want to invest my week-ends developing an idea I'm not sure will catch on.

What's the best next step? How do I evaluate my idea's chances?
How can I get feedback without risking it getting stolen (very little chance but it would sting)
> Since reCAPTCHA v3 scripts must be loaded on every page of a site, you must send Google your browsing history and detailed data about how you interact with sites in order to access basic services on the internet, such as paying your bills, or accessing healthcare services.

I don't believe this is true. You only need to include the JavaScript on pages which actively use the reCAPTCHA score. For example, you might only include it on the login and user registration pages.

Most of us that do not use Brave at this point do not necessarily use Chrome. In fact, those of us that care about the issues raised by the OP probably use Firefox and/or Chromium.
