That’s a nice feature, and I hope other browsers will adopt something similar soon. Also looking forward to the password generator that’s finally coming in Firefox 69. On a slight tangent, I wish the major browsers would agree on an interoperability standard for their built-in password managers.
It depends on when, and how much adoption it has. If the iPhone stopped supporting HTML, it would kill the iPhone, and your guess is as good as mine about how wide of adoption wasm needs before it hits that threshold.

You aren't stuck to the chair, the bullet proof vest comes off the chair and so you can take it with you.

Perfect for teachers in a school shooting situation where they can use the chair to block the door and protect the whole class, or put on the vest as they escort their class outside.
That's a cool way of doing it. I wonder if there is a central database for those number of stays. Otherwise you could feasibly rent it out 30 days on AirBnB and then 30 more days on booking.com and then 30 on other platforms etc

The problem lays in the UI. Most of what a modern application does is provide a decent UI to interact with data on a remote server. Swing was a terrible UI library. I never saw a java applet that wasn't ugly and clunky.
Also: consulting, curriculum design, instructional coaching and a bunch of other options, if you care to aim for them. Granted a lot of them are more likely to be parasitical than actual teaching is (though each of them can be useful and good!), but status, pay, and autonomy failing to track actually effective and useful work is hardly limited to the teaching field. It's kinda the norm.
> Climate change is a disaster for the fauna and flora of the world.

It's a disaster for the current flora and fauna, and social structures of the world. Something will follow, but on very different terms than what we have been used to.

To hazard a guess, the bias will be toward flora and fauna (including people) fighting to get in to, and defend shrinking habitable zones.

There is a theory that the desertification of the ancient Fertile Crescent, and subsequent dispersal of agricultural and pastoral societies and people, was the result of the their intense farming in a fragile environment.

Those people had a place to run to and carry on (the entire unknown-to-them world). No such escape hatch for us.

Our team has been using Ideon's SitOnIt TR2 task chair for many years and it's a great chair. Before we moved to this chair, I'd been sitting on Herman Miller chairs and I had significant back pain. It's been much better since we moved to the TR2. The mid-back version is what we use. We get the multi-function add-on for it as well (seat back tilt, tension control, back height adjustment).

The prices listed on their website are much higher than you'll pay if you buy through a store that offers workplace design services. Finding a place that sells them was way harder to figure out then it needed to be, but we finally figured out that the best way to do it was to contact the sales rep for our region. You can find the rep for your region on this page and they'll point you to a retailer.

So a couple things (From the US perspective):

1. Copyright, trademarks, and patents are a pretty weak argument for "censorship" IMO. But I guess I see where you're coming from. There are also many "fair-use" exceptions for these that make it less "censorship" and more "preventing profit on other people's ideas".

2. "US outright ban any casual religious reference because it offend some believers, resulting modifying some manga/anime/game" -- Can you give an example? This seems to go directly against first amendment rights.

3. "national security" -- There have been many cases where the government will work with press to attempt to stop them from releasing information that would damage national security. There have also been many cases where the press has not listened, and they're allowed to do that. What specifically are you talking about here? Direct theft of government property/information is illegal, but I would hardly call that censorship. NDAs I guess are censorship, but they are an agreement between two parties, not the government deciding arbitrarily what to censor.

4. "ex-political party symbol" -- absolutely not banned in the US.

5. Okay the last one is a fair example of censorship. I'm not familiar with the US laws on that one and frankly I don't want to find out...

Soon we’ll start seeing similar results about podcasts.

By and large they’re an epidemic of passive entertainment that make people dumber (with many notable exceptions just like Tv)
As I said, I think you are mistaken about how widespread that definition is, so looking it up wouldn't have helped.
My parents immigrated (not to the US) in their 30s and they were amazed at how many locals had never been to the postcard spots.

I work across from the famous Sugar Loaf mountain with the trolley between the mountains, maybe familiar to some from James Bond movies. It's really really really expensive to go there.
Well it's similar. I had a look and they basically tie the entire state of the page to the scroll position, but quite a lot of the page just scrolls normally.

So while they do use the position on the page they're not trying to override the default behaviour, they just add to it. The only real change to scrolling behaviour are the few elements that remain in screen for a short while, which is fairly nonintrusive, and doesn't really feel unfamiliar (although it might have if they didn't cleverly overlay a few boxes that scrolled normally).

This is true, and I don't mean to trivialize the work of today's programmer.

However, I suppose somewhat subjectively in reviewing or writing any of this glue or logic layer code using modern web frameworks I've never had the sort of WOW response that I do when I see what the programmers of yore were coming up with.
That's why I mentioned it. It's easier to find quality hardware for Windows vs something that is fully compatible with Linux. I wouldn't have mentioned it if Linux wasn't as closely integrated into Windows as it is now. Also, Microsoft's Surface Pro line is the closest in quality to the Macbook Pros, even more so than the ThinkPad line. Even though I use Ubuntu regularly, its GUI still isn't on par with Mac or Windows, which is another reason that I mentioned it. This said, I'm still mainly using Apple for now.

> But not everyone’s land in the Fergana Valley is fertile. Overuse of water in upstream communities often leaves those downstream parched.

About 1,400 cubic meters of water is supposed to flow along Kok Tal’s irrigation canal each day, yet only half that volume emerges from the neighboring village – an isolated stretch of Uzbekistan surrounded by Kyrgyz territory.

“During the summer time, there are daily conflicts over irrigation water,” said Tynar Musabaev, executive director of the Central Asian Alliance for Water. “They are usually between villages, sometimes inter-ethnic and people have killed each other over irrigation water.”

Indeed - there is enough aluminum/copper in the SoC's metal lid and PCB's inner (ground/power) layers, that the whole thing is effectively a 2-3 square-inch heat-sink. Eben himself has been talking about this technique around the time RPi3+ was released.

And your point here is completely understandable too - there is a kinda-heatsink there already. Just add a fan, and we're good.

My point is - seeing a large black hole where SoC goes (color corresponding to +20-ish degrees C by the chart) is utterly confusing, since SoC is the hottest point actually.
I'd be quite happy if they could just drive up and down the motorway themselves in reasonable conditions. Seems like we're pretty close to that already, and that hasn't even required wiring them all up to talk to each other.
I think buildings and certain communities should definitely ban Airbnb, at least for instances when the host is not staying there with you.

Having the city ban it entirely is extreme. There are plenty of locations in (almost?) every city where a B&B could operate without bothering anyone. Why ban something everywhere when it is only a problem in certain places?
I have been living in a tourist town for the last 10 years, which means that I often end up on pictures against my will (tourists just photographing stuff I happen to walk in front of). For a little personal revenge, I have developed the following hobby: whenever I walk towards a tourist making a picture of something behind me, I turn to whatever he/she is photographing with a confused look that may be described as: "what on earth is picture-worthy here?". It's fun.

Show HN: A database of 200k+ podcasts with emails to feature your business
Hey guys!

Podcast List (https://presshunt.co/podcasts) is a categorized database of 200k+ podcasts with emails & tags to help you find and pitch podcasts to cover your business.

Podcasts are the newest form of media outlet, and coverage of you, your product, or your business can generate tons of attention quickly.

Most podcast lists are designed for people trying to find new podcasts to listen to, which is only marginally helpful for marketers. For Podcast List we’ve designed the ideal list for entrepreneurs and marketers trying to find the right podcast to pitch their story to––either as an organic story/interview or as an advertisement.

Podcast List includes emails, tags & categories, hosts, titles, logos, the number of episodes, links to social media accounts & websites, and links to the podcast’s iTunes page.

To help you find even more coverage opportunities for your product, we've integrated this into our product Press Hunt which means as a bonus you’ll also get access to:

1. Our database of 400k journalists from all over the world

2. The ability to build lists of your favorite podcasts & journalists
️
3. The ability to export their contact data to CSV so you can easily run email outreach campaigns

Our plans start at $69/mo, but we’ve made a special 50% off forever lifetime discount code for early adopters on Hacker News: ‘EARLYADOPTERS’. This code expires this week.

As always we’d love feedback––thanks for taking the time to read this

- Matt & Aaron from Press Hunt

PS: We also just launched on Product Hunt: https://www.producthunt.com/posts/podcast-list-2
You see all those xrummer blog comment links and forum links out there... but that does NOT mean that it's helping. Most likely those links are just there to hide the links that are actually helping the site rank. That's typically done in cases such as the one you're describing. If you can spot it, Google can spot it and just ignores those links.
No, that's why I've been mulling it over for so long ;)
I'd see if you have any office supply liquidators in the area. It'll definitely depend on your location, but a good one will have a decent selection of high-quality chairs.
It has the power to get anyone back down to normal weight. From there they need to make adjustments to not get overweight again. Which will be easier after such a diet, since the habit of eating is already broken, taste buds have reset and the body won't crave energy to maintain his overweight level.

I work at a FAANG company and median TC for senior engineers (5+ years exp) is around 350k. If you can make staff (prob 1 in 4 L5 eng make it to staff) then you’re at 400 - 600k TC.

The weird issue with medicine is that the top doctors usually work at university hospitals that get all the difficult cases, but due to the nature of medical billing, the complicated cases pay less and take longer, this these “top docs” usually make the same or less than their counterparts at a private hospital working on more mundane procedures. At that point, the money comes in from
the side gigs I listed above (expert witness, consulting, books, speaking, patents on devices/drugs etc). Some university docs also pull in money through small private practices where they do cosmetic procedures etc.
The motive is to level the playing field so to say. China and India have the largest populations. India (and US) staffing companies have been abusing the Visa system and the eager Visa applicants for some time. I’ve personally seen it with IT Contractors getting pointless mail order Masters just to meet the Visa requirement.

I do not see this as part of the ongoing China/US trade “issues”.
Yes. Whether actual bullets are involved or means like imprisonment or fines, this literally is the solution to prisonner-dillemma's like problems, and in various forms exists everywhere and forms the underpinning of a civilized society.

I think if you focus too much on "$35" you will be very disappointed with the rpi. You need a power supply, that's $10. You need an SD card, that's $10. You need a case, that's $10. You need a micro HDMI to HDMI cable or two, that's $10. You need a fan, that's $10.

If you mentally decide "the Raspberry Pi is a $100 computer all-in" you will be much happier. You won't buy one to sit in a drawer (as many on HN have complained about), and you won't try to use a USB charger from your phone from 1992 and that SD card you got with your sandwich at IKEA and be disappointed that it's not very reliable.

You're comparing 400nm wavelengths to 1cm wavelengths. Ultraviolet obviously penetrates the top layer of the skin as it is much more energetic.

I guess, but the temptation to do "something, anything" is too great. In the 1980's there were all sorts of efforts to economically freeze out South Africa. Other than making Marc Rich a very wealthy man, I cannot definitively say it sped up or slowed down the unwinding of apartheid, but it was the morally correct thing to do.

Action must be taken.
Ask HN: How do you learn a new programming language without low level goals?
The easiest way to pick up a new language is to just build something in it. I'd like to learn Python because there are some things I want to do with it, but those projects are well out of reach of "just learning". Unfortunately I have nothing low level that I have any desire or motivation to build, so keep putting it off.

How have any of you solved this problem in the past?
City hopes ‘Baby Shark’ song will drive homeless away
This kind of thing makes me intensely uncomfortable, given that Wendell Berry is basically my spirit animal. But her points are really compelling. What's the difference between repairing damage (cochlear implants) and enhancing a healthy body? I love her rule: "You should not only be better when you’re using it, you should be better when you turn it off."

Also (for the christians out there), as someone who believes in the Fall of Man, we are all broken in some way, so every enhancement that brings us closer to the way we were created (in God's image) is actually damage repair, even brain implants to bring us closer to health and holiness. My only doubt is whether we have the wisdom to pull off a work that seems to belong to God.
> It's not easy for American citizens to get permanent work/live visas in most other countries either.

Getting permanent residence in any foreign country is going to be a more difficult process than getting a tourist visa. I think you're underestimating how much harder the American system is, and how things really are easier for US citizens in other countries.

To take a random example, Americans can apply for work permits while physically within Germany[1]. After some years of residency (I think it's 3) one can apply for a EU Blue Card if one has a college degree and an employment contract of EUR 53k/year[2] (easily attainable by a software engineer in Germany).

So your average HN US citizen software engineer can:

1. Interview with a German company on video chat

2. Visit visa-free for an onsite interview

3. Sign offer, apply for work and residence permits after relocating. Permits are for the duration of the employment contract

4. Get a Blue Card after 3 years

Which honestly sounds like a breeze compared to what a foreign-born software engineer would need to do to work in the US:
