We use Tandem extensively: the killer feature is that during screenshares you get to control a pointer that the other person can see on their screen, which makes pair programming over Tandem feel basically the same as in person.

It was especially useful when onboarding a dev onto a new section of code that they had never touched before, and also when unblocking someone who was having trouble learning to use the IDE.
> The business owner would pay a small fee to be listed.

I don't understand how you could do that without being an advertisement. How can you make a few businesses pay a fee without being advantaged against a business that doesn't pay that fee.

You do bring an interesting idea, if it's a directory financed by the government, which is neutral and randomize results (or else we would see much more A* companies ;) ), that could works in a way.

It may become an administrative nightmare to manage though with categories and stuff.
Does Terminal.app allow you to customize it to always dock to the top of your screen?
Speaking of whatsapp.

Does anyone else think it's weird that it requires access to your camera roll to view images, access to your camera to use the web version, and access to your contacts to start group chats? (on android anyway)

Aside from the webapp QR-code thing, none of that is technically necessary.

Well, if the other 72% of Native Hawaiians want to see it built on Mauna Kea, why do you dismiss their preferences? If just one person claimed to be offended, does that mean the project has to be stopped? The line has to be drawn somewhere, and 50% seems like a good choice.

Sometimes a system is so bad that the only reform is a revolution. Incrementalism is simply an unrealistic option in many cases, including voting reform (and climate change)
>Most people behave in a way you would expect.

This is absurd. How do you have any idea what "you would expect"?

>I'm using normal in the statistical sense. Statistically, most people are very neurologically similar and then some people are (relatively) wildly different.

First, define "very neurologically similar". Second, "most people are similar" in a normal distribution because that's the way the distribution is defined. It's not some biological coincidence.
I really appreciate the cheerfulness behind this but you've done it like 15 times now. Repetition is the enemy of curiosity so I think it's time to retire.

It depends on the acuity of the test imo. Autism is a spectrum. High functioning and low functioning autism are two different beasts. If they can't differentiate between high and low functioning, I agree that they should do what they can to try to prevent it. If they can predict high functioning, I think there's a real debate to be had. Especially if there are any potential risk factors with the treatment.

He does have absolute mastery, but it's my favorite tutorial because it is an _excellent tutorial_. I can do 2 chickens in a minute at this point; more, if I don't bone out the legs.

Just as importantly: if you can do this with a chicken, you can do it with a pheasant, a duck, or a goose as well. It works pretty much the same way.

If you eat chicken, I strongly encourage you to try this yourself.

Good on you for realizing that as a teenager. I use to read the TV section of the newspaper and plan a binge for a few hours. That was a different pattern to switching channels. I was extremely bored of the kind of TV you'd see if it was just unplanned "let's see whats on..."

The API was originally designed for a third-party app to add autocomplete. That never happened, but it should have everything you need.
Of course the HN mods are warning people who are criticizing the homophobia too harshly (ha!) while leaving up the comments that amount to blaming people for contracting HIV.
But isn't this the beauty of programming to begin with. Barring certain things like medical devices, cars, etc., where it has to be very orthodox, for stuff like Web back/frontends, and even gaming, this is how people learn, I guess. Sure, that code could be re-factored for speed, cleaner in appearance, etc.

Reminds me of the video driver (forget card) some Linux developers wrote that was ~30k lines of code. OpenBSD wanted to use it because the HW manufacturer wouldn't release the specs, but because the Linux code was GPL, the OpenBSD guys re-wrote it from scratch in less than 1/4 of the code.

The problem is No Newspaper actually write the word Declining Sales, they all use the word marketshares, where it means unit / revenue in the total market during a period of time.

As a matter of fact Tim Cook mentioned in the Investor Q&A that iPhone User base has been growing in all of their Operating Segment. ( The word Operation was chosen likely because Apple doesn't actually operate in India, where it has declining usage ). The last reported Active iPhone users were 900M nearly 10 months ago. Apple are highly likely to reach 1B Active iPhone user sometime in 2020.

Willing to relocate: No

Email: rrv.jobsearch.2019@gmail.com

Quick background:

* Started as a web designer in the 90s, started doing backend work in Perl, then PHP.
* Went back to school, started doing C# work for the University, discovered I loved it.
* Discovered that academic careers involved bureaucracy I didn't want to pursue.
* Moved from Texas to California, picked back up PHP and Perl to stay fed.

Goal:

I'm strongly open to EdTech positions, but with the focus of the teaching/instruction part. Some of the education administrative SaaS startups look like they provide useful things, but that's not what I'm interested in. I'm happy to discuss other industries other than those that are finance (banks/loans/cryptocurrency/credit/etc) based.

What I'm looking for is a place where I can help build/improve something that allows people to learn something. It could be a college textbook subject, how to rebuild an engine, or learning how to fly a plane.

Additional:

I've got a handful of other skills and knowledge. C, C++, Perl, PostgreSQL, Oracle, shell scripting, HTML, JavaScript, a small bit of Java and Lua, college minors in mathematics and political science, a hobbyist knowledge of 3d graphics and a developing knowledge of mobile game design. I keep learning as much as I have time to pick up books and throw myself at the keyboard.

I wouldn't have concocted some ridiculous conspiracy theory to require fleeing to an oppressive country which I would leak intelligence to, but assuming I were that stupid but not stupid enough to look at countries more closely, I probably would have asked for asylum from Ecuador following Assange's example.

So what you're saying is that a pattern of printed symbols that you looked at once in the past has permanently affected your response to stimuli?
> the diagnostic criteria for autism doesn't just measure how autistic someone is, but also how well they've learned to cope with being autistic.

I'm not medically qualified at all, but that sounds a bit like saying Typhoid Mary didn't have typhoid because she was asymptomatic. That someone is able to effectively cope with a condition doesn't mean they don't have the condition. Am I missing something?
phytoestrogen != estrogen

If this were true, all the pre-transition trans women I know would be eating a LOT more soy. Unfortunately, it's not, and can even have the opposite effect, by binding to receptors that estrogen would, preventing it from acting normally.
I wasn't a Diablo cheater, but I was a Diablo 2 cheater. Frankly, it was what made the game playable for me; I wasn't cheating to dupe items or anything like that, but making the damn map functional. It was definitely a huge part of the staying power of the game, IMO.
Not insane at all. This is such a lovely and decadent way to live.

A pair of Devialet Speakers (about 1.5K USD each) which are about 25lbs (11kgs) each, is a surprisingly easy and satisfying way to achieve this. The sound is rich, satisfying and similar to what I normally associate a 15-20K USD setup with.

Someone mentioned Genelec, wanted to add an another option.
The linked article gives the name as Lower Duck Pond.
The name "Racket 2" is just a code name.
A name used to signal that we are talking a possible new direction (and not an immediate change to the existing racket).

Wrt to supporting new versions of a language Racket has an excellent track record. The language mzscheme (used before racket) is still supported - and is implemented using the language machinery present in Racket.
You're not the only one. I have tastes in music, even strong ones, but they don't tend to follow the way genres seem to be split at all.

Defining a genre by its characteristic instrument set, for instance, doesn't match how I tend to react to things very well, but it's a fairly popular way of separating genres, it seems. (I'm not saying I don't understand the use of that metric, it's very, well, available, in the sense of "availability heuristic". But I do not personally find it all that useful.)
Apple dipped their toes into the lower end of the market with the 5C and the fact that they made it look drastically different suggests that Apple agrees with you.

As someone who is (was?) fairly good at chess because I grinded it in chess clubs as a kid, I can tell you that all the books are pretty useless and you just need to practice.

State representation usually clusters around class issues not ethnicity. And even if it didn’t, why arbitrarily focus on ethnicity? Handicapped people need representation, yet we don’t draw districts that ensures they get one. And if we did, and started splitting votes by who we think need the most representation, we might as well do away with democracy and start arbitrarily arranging representatives.
To be fair, Western Australia has this problem. 10% of the population but 15-20% (depending on boom status) of the export revenue. Politically irrelevant, but the source of all the mining royalties. It causes problems.
JACK: “No. It’s unconstitutional. You can’t make your own currency. That is the federal government’s job.

PRICE: Jack. Look at me. I am not the problem here. The problem is that hard cash is fading. Rapidly. That’s just the way of the world right now. And Bitcoin is spreading — and if Bitcoin takes over we are all in a world of hell. It is unregulated. It has already reached its transaction volume maximum and it is partly controlled by Chinese miners.

With E-Coin we control the ledger and the mining servers — we are the authority. I will make sure that you will have visibility into every single wallet that’s opened: every loan, every transaction. Which means we can start making new assets. Which means we can start rebuilding the banking sector without you having to inject even more politically unpalatable federal funds into it.

JACK: The President will laugh in my face.

PRICE: But he will know that this is the right thing to do. This is going to be controlled by a good old-fashioned American company. You want to regulate it? Be my guest. Regulate the shit out of it. I’ll give you backdoors, side-doors, trace — whatever you want. Just don’t. Shut it. Down.

We have the second largest investment per person in NATO.

1. US = 1894 USD (3,5% GDP)

2. Norway = 1483 (1,61%)

3. UK = 899 (2,1%)

4. France = 787 (1,81%)

5. Canada = 643 (1,23%)

https://www.regjeringen.no/no/tema/forsvar/innsikt/budsjett/...

Because of the GDP-measure, if we stop producing oil/gas we will be over the 2% but with a lot of value in the ‘bank’. So the GDP measure is not the best. We still try to get to 2% by building up our own industry around the money, not pending it blindly.
We already have a lot of progress in artificial womb technology. I wonder if studies like this will push towards more research in that direction.
The government certainly shouldn't be in the racket.

I like the lottery. I can pay a couple dollars for the cheap thrill of scratching off a ticket once in a while, and on rare occasions, waiting for the Powerball drawing. The entertainment value I get from spending $5-10/month is an easy value proposition for me.

Some people spend far more than that, and can afford it far less. That's true of many poor financial decisions that people make in life, from the food they eat, to the electronic services they subscribe to, to the drugs they take. They're personal decisions that are easy to frown upon, but when you're broke, cheap pleasures that are financially stupid are still easy to justify, and I'm not going to judge.

What I find revolting is that the government not only encourages this harmful behavior, they monopolize it. It's one of the many examples of government monopoly on vice. They make a moral argument that gambling is bad, use that to make it illegal, and then turn around and profit from it by bribing the public. Gambling is really bad, but we use it to pay for schools! Think of the children! Disgusting.
That’s the point!

We have to TRUST WhatsApp, Telegram, Signal, et al because there are no good OPEN SOURCE alternatives. Otherwise we could just run our own.

We have to TRUST the current PKI and DNS because the alternatives are still immature.

But EVEN IF we develop robust and mature alternatives, and wide adoption, we have to TRUST the Device, OS and Browser makers.

The Trusted Computing Base is made by a handful or companies. Open source in hardware is still a nascent field.

It’s interesting if one can ever be truly sure that some part or chip hasn’t been interdicted. Apple tries to scan components as they arrive vs their hardware designs.

But hardware will always be the weak link. Keyloggers. Cameras watching your fingers from the ceiling.

The future of surveillance is in this kind of stuff. We will ALMOST have secure communications, but not really. The only thing you can be sure of is sending quantum entangled particles from airgapped rooms.

This is fantastic. Well done on launching. Can't wait to try it.
What's mind blowing to me is they could easily double their already respectable Mac revenue by simply undoing some of the Ive-induced idiocy like keys with no travel, dongle infestation, touch bar that distracts when you look at the main screen, or hinge which breaks if you open/close your laptop a lot. I hope this can actually happen now.

And their services themselves have considerable potential given that currently most people just use storage and music.
PartiQL: One query language for all your data
If the smartwatch can be used as a triage device, I believe it could benefit focus. Glancing at a watch, seeing just the necessary information, and getting back to work is more efficient than opening a phone. Now, if you just use the watch as a phone, it'll screw upbyour flow just as much as a phone.
