>Just like a software engineer that creates simple internal CRUD applications for an Enterprise will have lower requirements than someone who works in R&D at a cutting edge field.

You're comparing the upper and lower ends of the same field, and I agree that it's clear enough why one is harder than the other. However, doctors and nurses do not simply have two versions of the same job.

Using your example, suppose that every software developer was worse. Then, CRUD apps would be cutting edge R&D and enterprise applications would be, I don't know, Excel spreadsheets. If CRUD apps were cutting edge R&D, programming would be easier, and worse programmers would be able to keep their jobs. The field is easier because the people are worse, the people are worse because the field is easier. The question is, what starts this cycle?

Ask HN: Which laptop is best for writing?
For the past year or so I’ve had a lot of ideas for blog posts/articles but never seem to have the time to sit down and flesh them out. Between client work, family time and house maintenance there’s just so many hours and so much energy to go around.

However, I do have two 25-minute holes in my schedule a day - sitting on a commuter train. I’ve been using this time to space out and/or listen to podcasts, but could easily use it to write instead.

Here’s the problem though - opening up the laptop (which belongs to the client) takes me straight into job-mode, knocking me out of any flow I might’ve had.

I’m therefore looking for a laptop that’s:

A) light
B) good keyboard
C) fairly inexpensive

It seems like an impossible trifecta. Prove me wrong?
500€ instead of 111€ though

Other commenters pointed out with far more eloquence, why your accusation of absolutism is a pretty cheap rethoric trick.

But here's something else to chew on:

European regulations often benefit me, the individual, instead of corporations.

It guarantees that I don't pay 6$ a minute for a phone call from Tallinn to Tulouse. It ensures that I'm not ripped off 30 Euros for making an intereuropean money transfer, it provides my airline with a pretty good motivation not to bump me for fun and profit and it seems to work a lot better in the food safety department.

Granted, not all regulation is good regulation, but overall it seems more beneficial to society at large than to some scummy ad-tech business specifically.
“Higher suicide rates in rural areas are due to nearly 60 percent of rural homes having a gun versus less than half of homes in urban areas,” psychiatrist and behavioral scientist Keith Humphreys of Stanford University says. “Having easily available lethal means is a big risk factor for suicide.”

Pretty bold claim there. Seems like you could run a pretty big study just based off that one hypothesis.
IIRC from reading his autobiography, his position was slightly more nuanced. It went something like the following:

1. The government requires Chrysler (like every other manufacturer) to put in catalytic converters and other things

2. But for anti-trust/collusion reasons manufacturers aren't allowed to collaborate on developing these things and splitting the cost

3. As the smallest carmaker it has been most expensive for Chrysler to do, as there are fewer unit sales to amortize the costs over

4. Since government regulations are partially responsible for putting Chrysler in this position, the government should help with a bailout

Again it's been a long time since I read the book so maybe I'm remembering it wrong.

For #2 one could argue "just source those things from a 3rd party supplier then". I don't know if that argument was ever made.

Global Passport Power Rank

Passports of the world are sorted by their total Mobility
Score, which includes visa-free and visa on arrival
privileges. The higher the MS score, the better global
mobility its passport bearer enjoys.

Mobility Score (MS) – includes visa-free (VF),
visa on arrival (VOA), eTA and eVisa
The Basic Attention Token notion is inscrutable to me. It's like the corporate sponsored charitable giving campaigns. Why would I give WalMart $1 to forward to Children's Hospital when I could just give Children's Hospital $1 directly?

Given my track record of predicting winners and losers (eg JavaScript), I can only assume BATs will be hugely successful.

The "mobility score" is just a number of countries you can visit without visa. But that's a poor indication of what passport you'd like to own.

For example, Singapore is 4th on the list, 166 countries. But in order to live in any of these countries, you need a visa. On the other hand, Romania is 9th on the list, but Romania belongs to EU so its citizens can move to any of other 26 EU countries without visa. Doesn't it make their passport more powerful?

Hong Kong citizens can move to China, so while they can go without visa "only" to 154 countries, they can decide to move to China and freely move around the area of 10 million square meters, which is twice bigger than EU. Doesn't it impact the power of their passport?

I guess what I'm saying is: this list is too simple to take it seriously.

Not so much about leaving the country, as about knowing who from there is in your country. Most of the point of requiring a visa for entry (at this point in globalization when very few countries are ever actively at war) isn’t stopping people from entering, but rather knowing exactly who’s entering, and then being able to track them from the time they enter until the time they leave, if you feel the need to.

As well, when you don’t trust a foreign government to ensure that people only get passports for their own identity, you can’t be sure that a random person coming in with a passport from said country isn’t actually a Person of Interest. So, you require they fill out a passport-like form in your own country, and then try as best as you can to figure out if they are who their passport says they are. That’s a visa.
It is commonly known as "the 1918 Spanish influenza pandemic"

It's a title, not a series of facts
I'll give you an example - a female boss asked me to "come to her hotel room" during a weekend on her visit to my city, making it clear with her body language what she wanted. I declined. Half a year later my earned/promised promotion didn't happen.

Another situation - a former female colleague, a married wife with children, during a business trip suggested I go to her "beautiful" rented apartment she wanted to show me and that I could sleep there; "pajamas not needed", "marriage is just marriage, it's not important". I declined; she went cold in subsequent mutual interactions, and as she was a close friend of my boss (I don't want to explore how close), boss started to be cold towards me as well.

So no, there is no threat of physical violence, but there is a significant threat of unjust manipulation that for some reason is not on our society's radar at all. Shitty behavior comes in all genders, but only one is called out for it.

How do Maxwell's equations predict that the speed of light is constant
I am currently reading a book on recycling that disputes that narrative (Junkyard Planet by Adam Minter). The main argument is that shipping a container of "recycling material" across the oceans costs real money (much more than a local landfill), that somebody paid. That somebody surely isn't paying for the junk just to burn it.

What is true is that recycling methods can sometimes be cruel. The example is a guy recycling Christmas lights in China. At first all they did was burn the plastic away to get to the copper. Later, when demand for plastic in China was also rising, they invented methods to also recycle the plastic.

Burning the plastic away was of course very dirty. And in other places (like Africa), dirty methods might be still more common.

No, its not.

Not everybody has to run gitlab in the same production environment that gitlab.com does.

it is 100% not a show stopper. Please stop being fictitious.

I could pop the last mysql gitlab version on my ARM rock64 single board computer and get by running it as a 300 page views a month internal git server for personal projects. It will work fine, with or without partial indexes.

So. Again. It is 100% not a show stopper.

Comparing passport power by total number of countries you can enter is a bad metric.

The UK has a much higher rating than Chile because Britons can enter countries like Lesotho or Namibia visa-free. On the other hand, Chilean citizens can enter both Russia and Iran without a visa, which I think makes it more powerful.
> I'm also curious how he was contacted by that Chinese company. Did he just get an email one day asking for chips in exchange for money?

The article states that he was actually the president of the Chinese company that he transferred the chips to: "The scheme was uncovered and investigators realized that Shih was the president of CGTC."
So according to your logic adding to job ad such a sentence:

Will Cameras in Classrooms Make Schools Safer?(2015)[pdf]
Maybe they'll turn electrical signals into a picture using complex image processing that varies between sensor manufacturers.

Yes, but FaceTime is not attempting to be a camera; it is attempting to simulate a face-to-face conversation. That it uses a camera is an implementation detail. The fact that the distance between the camera and the face on the screen makes it look as though the person you are conversing with isn't quite looking at you is an implementation detail leaking out of the intended abstraction.

My latest project has been to start ripping my entire blu-ray and DVD collection (which is massive), and using Emby to serve them. Since I didn't want my laptop to overheat by compressing the video, I wrote a script to transcode files on my server to a smaller size once the ripping is done.

It's a little different, since my "server" is actually six ODroid XU4's glued together with Docker Swarm and NFS, but it wouldn't be hard to adapt for your thing.

I'd be happy to share that script if you'd like but it's not terribly elaborate.
That is a very naive thing to assert. Federal tax law is expansive enough and provides enough discretion to the IRS that if they want you they can almost certainly get you, especially if there's anything you aren't totally above the board with. Remember, a lot of the law hinges on intent and if you made $100 selling drugs and claim you made $100 selling used TVs (and pay taxes accordingly) they'll likely be able to find some felony statute violation if they want to dig into it.

When they audit normal people they don't go all in like that. They want their money and it's gonna be hard for you to pay if they destroy your life by putting you in jail.
It's not especially controversial. Many people who attempt suicide regret trying and go on to live fairly normal lives but most people who attempt suicide with a firearm are successful. It's long been a causal factor in the male/female discrepancy in rates as well as the rural/urban divide.

Every day I see headlines like this and I think "surely soon enough it will get bad enough that people will support universal healthcare" or really any "socialist" policy. Every day I am mistaken.

If people actually did the research they'd see that these policies are just good common sense for them, but too many of our voters are lied to by the media they consume, so I worry things will never change.
There are many different strains, with different potency, which have differing terpenes, which may or may not change how it affects your body.

Your absolute best bet is to talk to a doctor experienced in prescribing medical marijuana - and work with them. When using medicinally, marijuana is similar to other prescriptions in the sense that you need to find the "correct" dosage and mixture that works for your body and your issues. This also includes experimenting with different forms of delivery (vape, food, oils, sprays, capsules, etc.) My dear mother spent close to a year visiting with her doctor to narrow down a strain, dosage, and delivery method to help cope with her RLS.

Anecdotally speaking, I have not had the experiences you described. In my non-medical opinion, it sounds like you may have taking too strong of a dosage, and may have had a predominately body-high focused strain. In general, Sativa's are more head-focused while Indica's are more body-focused. This is not set in stone, however; there are Indica's with a strong head-high and Sativa's with a strong body-buzz. And with cross-breeding and all of the resulting strains, it's not nearly as useful to think in purely Sativa vs. Indica anymore. But, the general rule may help you narrow down to a more palatable strain if you choose to keep experimenting.

Combining your two experiences (weird high, and CBD induced migraines), it may be that you, unfortunately, do not react well to marijuana.
Whoow this is cool!
Even a third might be being generous. I have never once really broken a sweat riding an eBike even in hot summer weather. I've actually had to put jackets/jumpers on to stop the wind chill on hot days - this never happens on normal bikes due to the effort exerted.

This however is precisely why I have some ebikes in addition to human steam powered ones - its so nice for commute or journeys when you want to arrive feeling refreshed but not need a shower or change of clothes.
Right now I have a R720 fully loaded with a mix of 16 SSD/HDDs, multiple Fusion-IO cards, 128GB+ ECC RAM, 10Gig Ethernet and when not under load it draws < 200 watts.

If you get something like a R620 from ebay, assuming the US, you can get one that uses less power.
panic() doesn't have a return value, so no. But try() has.
It's not a bold claim anymore. It's well-established public health knowledge that people with faster and less failure-prone suicide methods are more likely to take their lives.

For example, women attempt suicide at a higher rate, but die less often because they use less-lethal methods (like pills). Further, making it impossible to spontaneously jump off bridges lowers suicide rates.

Ah I misunderstood. Maybe it corresponds to "no data"?

EDIT: probably a bug with their data.
The article says the drop is due to people in their 20s and 30s are dying but why? The article states there is a big increase in overdose deaths but in percentage terms. Is this significant? Are deaths from fentanyl up from 1,000 to 2,000 or 100,000 to 200,000?

I also didn't find the word "obesity" anywhere in this article and I have to wonder how much this is a factor too.

As much as people might take this as "see how much life is better in [country X]", you still see people desperate to come here. Even in the EU, legal and illegal immigrants are much more likely to be headed to the UK and Germany.

I'm Australian but I've now lived in the US coming up on 9 years. The reason? As a software engineer, you can squeeze what would be a lifetime of savings in Australia into 10 years or less and that's hard to ignore.

The US is a pretty terrible place to live if you're poor however. And that goes far beyond life expectancy (but it of course plays into it).

> This is an utterly insufficient answer to the allegation that you copied internal data structures entirely from the NT kernel

It's quite sufficient when you consider that, unless the allegation is made in a court of law, it's in ReactOS’s interest for it to be perceived as plausible. Being perceived as either an actual (if unauthorized) fork of Windows or as something that a Microsoft insider could reasonably mistake for one is not bad for ReactOS.

And if Microsoft is going to bring the allegation in court, no matter the merits, the lawyers defending ReactOS aren't going to want lots of detailed public statements to have been made first.

> Brushing this off as a free "PR campaign" only works if those NT programmers simply made everything up

It works and, I'd argue, is the only sane strategy so long as Microsoft isn't suing them. Because, among other reasons, without such a suit it is nothing more than a free PR campaign especially if it is true.

Admittedly, it doesn't maximize imaginary internet debate points, but while that maybe be OPs interest, it doesn't seem to be ReactOS’s. (Also, probably not Microsoft’s, who I imagine so long as they aren't suing ReactOS would prefer not drawing attention to it, either.)
Yeah, the cheapest CBD I could find on Google was ~$30/g (pre- tax, shipping, etc). Good luck convincing people to spend $600/mo on their sleep!

(I can already hear the HNers coming out of the woodwork to attest to their willingness to do so, how sleep is 1/3rd of your life and so if you're spending < 1/3rd of your income on it you're actually getting a great deal, and how it would actually save them tons of money to sleep a bit better and with a little less anxiety...yada yada..

but the vast majority of people can't do that)

> It's not like you can easily choose your passport like choosing a sports team or college or something.

If you're rich, you kinda can. This website appears to be associated with an investment firm of some kind, and there are many visa investment programs, and even some citizenship investment programs. Quite a few high wealth people use multiple citizenships as an "insurance" of sorts, in addition to increased convenience during travel (using your dual citizenship's passport to travel to one where your passport isn't visa-free).
Yes WhatsApp images and videos can't be downloaded. Tried from London, UK.
Interesting.

#1 (UAE) beats the #2 ones (Finland etc.) in the following countries: Burundi, Chad, China, Congo, Congo (DR), Guinea, Liberia, Mali, Nauru, Niger, Russia, Saudi Arabia, Sierra Leone, South Sudan, Sudan, Syria, Yemen. Mostly a handful of African countries and a handful of countries known for human-rights abuses. As for the latter, not necessarily something to be proud of.

But measuring "power" by number of countries treats countries equally. More interesting would be to calculate by the number of people in the world you can visit without a visa... or number of people multiplied by GDP per capita -- to reflect the fact that a passport which allows you access to richer countries could arguably reflect more "power".
