> In a functional developed economy you need people to move between jobs as supply and demand change, so a certain level of unemployment is expected.

Absolutely. Technically someone who leaves an employer at the end of July and starts a new job in September is unemployed for one month. This is part of any statistic.

Put another way: it is almost impossible to have an unemployment rate below 1%, as you said.

> Walking behind someone who was vaping recently is one of the least pleasant experiences I’ve had for a while.

Worse than walking behind a smoker? Both my mother and a very good friend of mine smoke and I outright told them: you can vape around me, but don't smoke in my presence. I can't stand the smell.
I'm sorry you said the inversion is poor so I assumed you had a better one in mind.

Please, give me a pair of left/right wing variants of the same general concept that you think are not 'poor' and lets have a look at what that yields.

Otherwise stop saying the inversion is poor or malformed.

No they're not.

Not to mention, none of this is "left-leaning". Maybe in the SV bubble, it is, but not in the real world.

The idea of a study covering all oceans to find if "phytoplancton" (thousands of species) is vanishing is just ridiculously difficult. There are strong stationalities, different for each species. There are competition and predation, there are different water masses... In the same zone you can find void areas and reunion areas.

You would need huge resources and deploy a really fine "mesh" of stations for a very long time to study that.

Is the job of oceanographers, and do this all the time at local small scale. But extrapolating to a global scale is a really ambitious project, prone to came with the wrong answers.

Not to mention that aren't even doing plankton taxonomy. Is a collection of secchi disks data. To point to just one of the major problems with the study, Secchi disks aren't used at night normally. Let suppose that we would visit google headquarters at 4am for example, we could wrongly assume that is a mostly deserted area. Is the same problem.

At least on mobile you currently show a long video of your sign up flow that gives a second long glimpse into some sort of profile you created.

>Not “technology will save us” - human creativity can save us. It has in the past and survival will require our creativity infinitely into the future.

Well, when discussing practical solutions to problems, creativity/technology is more or less same thing.

>You may laugh but let’s tslk again in 30 years. When avg temps rise more than the 1 degree they have so far, political attitudes will change.

They could very well change for the inverse: people/countries being more selfish, fiercely fighting to save their own (and why not? In a world of fewer resources / access to good stuff / areas with declining climate, that could be a wining move).

"Human creativity" didn't save the huge Babylonian empire from being reduced to dust, the huge Roman empire from declining (and entering centuries of "dark ages"), and so on. And those were just political issues, not political + environmental, like today.

And of course there's also the inverse argument: we haven't signed any contract that something that worked in the past (e.g. creativity solving some problem) will work in the future too.

You've got a point there, indeed not officially deprecated, but in practice(again) at company X, you cannot do classes anymore.

>I consider chores to be stopping me from doing things "I should be doing", but it has nothing to do with status; it's just about having better things to do with the time.

I think the difference in our opinion is that I see those two phrasings as being more or less the same. "better things to do with the time" I understanding as not very different from "those are beneath me, I'm here for a higher calling".

As opposed to enjoying e.g. cooking and tending the house, and not considering them a waste of time.

Kind of like people tend to look down on garbage men and cleaning persons, even though their work is essential.

The FSF might also be able and willing to assist with LGPL violations. Unfortunately though this may be a case with circumstantial evidence but no proof. It also often seems that the people who most willing to disregard the (L)GPL are the ones most militantly protective of their proprietary code. It's quite sad that many developers seem to think that way.

Adding an extension like that to the GPL may be problematic because it has a clause that allows users to ignore restrictive extensions (as opposed to permissive extensions).

Anyone know what he is talking about here? I searched google but couldn’t find what he was talking about.
Well, not exactly. He merely suggested using another one. But I thought it would be good to talk something a little bit more specific. And I am not sure he knows there are already others available (for shell scripts at least fd[0-9]).

After all, /dev/std{in,out,err} are more or less just convenience links (allowed extensions of POSIX). But using /dev/stderr might fail on some POSIX compliant systems.
It seems like the issue is that it takes a lot of time and effort to be informed enough on any topic to make a good decision on it, and people are limited on how many topics they can be reasonably informed about. However, we have an expectation that people should take a stance on any particular event happening in the world when asked for their opinion. The default answer to such a question shouldn't be yes or know, but I don't know, and there shouldn't be any shame attached to not knowing because no one can know everything.

Also, another part of the problem might be how news media implies that by consuming their publications in a few minutes you can be just as informed as the expert who has been studying a topic for years, and how they overinflate people's confidence in what little they know.
Show HN: I made a pure CSS flexbox library inspired by Angular‘s flex-layout
In the native vs not-native look and feel discussion, I hold the opinion that different platforms have different answers. In MacOS, users expect a native look and feel, or at least something close to it.

Windows, Linux and Android users have no such expectations. In fact, in the case of Android, a non-native look and feel could be considered a positive thing since the native android look and feel is kind of terrible.
The new Suunto app is complete shit. I am going to stick with the old one as long as I can, then just go back to syncing when I charge it.
The thing is, we don't need to learn Bazel either. We will just keep running the command "ng build", and internally the CLI will be using Bazel instead of Webpack, but that is transparent for us users.

We only see the CLI commands on our end, and the Angular CLI internally will use whatever build tool is best for the job at a given time, and will keep evolving over time.

It's such a relief that we don't need to learn build tools in the Angular ecosystem anymore and can focus on application development only.
People at 23AndMe could run an anonymized query on their dataset to extract networks of lineages and see highly connected individuals. It would be fascinating to see some people with hundreds of offsprings because they are sperm donors.

What if their own children become sperm donors, etc. If two persons are born from sperm donors I imagine they have to check in case they are siblings or closely related.
I think cars are a bit different. Mobile phones all look the same and function largely the same and are used in similar use cases. The environments cars are used in, patterns of usage and level of customisation people care about are incredibly diverse. Apple has a massive market share with just a few phone models with limited options on each, but all the major car makers have many, many models each with endless customisations. The market supports enormous diversity.
That's awful to be honest.

I don't have anything against online dating in principle, though I do find it pretty weird, but there's got to be a better way than relying on obscure matchmaking algorithms, shitty apps optimizing for engagement and your being single (remember, if you're not single you're not using the app), run by shady companies harvesting all of your data. Americans will always surprise me in their ability to surrender every single aspect of their life to megacorporations, even the most intimate and personal ones.

“Whenever the people are well informed, they can be trusted with their own government; that whenever things get so far wrong as to attract their notice, they may be relied on to set them to rights.” -Thomas Jefferson

Everyone seems to talk a lot about governments, but at some point we may need to explore whether being informed about non-government entities may be just as important in this context.

I would argue that being informed about government is important for preserving a democracy, and being informed about industry is important for preserving a free market. Information inequality threatens the integrity of any system that relies on a group to make decisions, whether it’s a town hall meeting or a shareholder event. By the vote or by the dollar. It creates inefficiencies that are exploited by the information-wealthy.

As regrettable as it is to think this way, I am not sure there is a technological solution to the problem of misinformation. In the very near future we may only want to connect to the internet for entertainment, irrespective of truth. Critical thinking will still be alive, but anyone who engages in it truthfully will probably limit their thoughts to people, things, and events in their immediate surroundings.

Later, when we’re honest with ourselves, we’ll have another chance to be honest with each other.
Thanks for bringing attention to WebAssembly, far from perfect but with time it could rise to become the default for front ends. Javascript's popularity was purely accidental and doesn't have to be the only option for in-built browser applications.
random data point from Berlin...multiple US friends cannot use JUMP bikes (owned by Uber) using their USA uber apps. Something just doesn't work. So I think this must be hard for companies to get right.
Huh. I guess that you could do the dry ice and water thing, but avoiding explosions could be dicey.
I feel it's also something about the ease you can do things with and your deeper feelings about them.

When something is easy to do well because all the supplies are easy to reach, in good order and condition (the joy of a new sponge for dishes!) and there is not too much of it and you don't have to climb around other messes it's nice.

We become used to suboptimal situations so quickly, and the bad feelings of stuffiness and annoyance are buried below more immediate issues.

Taking an hour or two and identify/remove the pain points can improve the task experience greatly.

> You say that like it's self-evident, but it isn't. You haven't presented a compelling argument for why absolute privacy in financial transactions matters, let alone is an objective good.

Well, it works both ways. The same could be said about your position.

I do think privacy should be the default everywhere and I consider this an objective good. I do not trust centralized entities scrutinizing my life and deciding what's right and what's wrong, especially since those entities are in a constant state of flux depending on power games I have no control over.

It has yet to break something after one year of use and it has certainly made my browsing feel much less invasive.
That 10 minute conversation is potentially far more nuanced than a go/no-go fizzbuzz quiz. It's a different thing altogether.

The fact is companies hire people all the time, without using fizzbuzz, probably hiring some number of people that would not have passed fizzbuzz if it were given to them. Were all those people definitely bad hires? I think not. The parent commenter's company had "survived" without it, and many do now.

It's understandable to want to have the ultimate "gotcha" interview question, the response to which screens out a candidate. It's not totally wrong, but there's a lot more to an interview. I think the onus should be on the hiring managers to develop their behavioral interviewing skills so that they're able to evaluate a candidate more fully than by using toy problem quizzes.
Github/Gitlab (gh/gl) for source control is [almost] universal in enterprises, but it is quite confusing to me why these enterprises end up not using gh/gl issues for task management and tracking. Both of these now have well implemented project boards and these are way faster and more usable than traditional alternatives including Jira. For a developer, it is way easier and more effective to spend time creating and updating issues in gh/gl than using an entirely different solution. Open source projects have already demonstrated the effectiveness of gh/gl issues, but enterprises continue to rely on "enterprisey" solutions. I think this is mainly because the choice of project management tool is in the hands of developers in case of open source, but mostly with project/product managers in case of enterprises. As long as this remains the case, developers employed with enterprises will continue to have to live with tools that provide sub-optimal user experience.

Edit:

There is a good reason for project/product managers to prefer Jira and similar products. They want to be able to create dashboards with some very complex queries for reporting, and also features such as moving an Issue from one project to another, etc. In short, it provides management features that PMs rely on for reporting progress up the management chain.
I’m less interested in speculation and more interested in the CDCs claims once it’s investigation has been concluded. Please do note that the claim specifically posits there exists a cluster of illnesses associated with vaping and that one person has died from it- not that only one person had ever had this disease. This makes it interesting. I hope the cause can be founds soon, given The popularity of vaping in teens.
