Thank you too for the feedback! Would you mind either sharing the following or submitting a bug directly through the game? If you'd like to share this outside of the game but still privately, my Discord ID is Adam13531#3531.

• What device are you on?

• Are you using the app or the site?

• If you're on the site, what browser are you using, and have you pinned the site to your home screen, or is the URL bar showing?

• What OS version are you on?

The mobile versions of the game are thin wrappers around the web version (https://play.bot.land/), and there weren't very many mobile users before launch, so bugs certainly made it through the testing process.
I don't even know where to start with this comment.

"Storing encryption keys in china" could mean anything, it could mean having edge services with private TLS keys for instance. Which means semantically you're correct, but it doesn't mean anything.

In fact I'd argue it's no different than hosting in the US or UK.

The UK for example has laws that forbid you from withholding encryption keys or passwords. And there is an equivalent of the NSL (National Security Letter) which forbids you from even telling anyone that you have complied with a government or law enforcement request.

So how is this relevant?
Show HN: Intents – Get linked with people that see what you see
Hi everyone,
I'm working on a new paradigm of a social network, that uses visual searches to link groups of people who are interested, inspired and connected to what they're looking at.
I mean, you just take a picture and Intents show you communities of people (I would love to call them "Tribes"), who've taken a correlated picture. And of course you can interact with them.
Here the link http://www.intents.me

My vision is to connect people with the same intents, now with a simple picture (analysed with AI/CV algorithms) and in the future, I would add a JS framework (chrome extension?) that also connect online people who are browsing websites correlated with the images.

Example: Online shoppers looking for a cool Nike sneaker connected with influencers and people who've taken a picture of those shoes.

Does this make sense? What do you think about it?
I'm looking forward to hearing your feedback.

Best,
Matteo

Just wanted to add that diapers are really expensive for lots of middle-class people from around the world. Baby food is also more expensive compared to food for grown-ups.
Did you mean to link to an article?
Thanks for this, I'll do it!
I’ve often wondered why I can focus for a very long time when working in a coffee shop, yet when working alone at home I can easily go off on a tangent.
"paying almost 10 times the price. Shirts at Zara are 60$ while forever21 like 10$."

That's six times.
What’s interesting to me is that so many rebuttals are focused on either procedure (did the whistleblower follow the correct channels, were the rules changed for them) or misdirection (the whistleblower is partisan, the Bidens are the real story here). I suspect that a lot of Trump’s defenders know that his conduct is impeachable, but simply aren’t willing to make the concession to the Democrats.
Which industry and how many years of experience if I may ask?

I work with deep learning, and with ~2 years of experience >125k CAD base is a rare find.
I suspect that having a sense of urgency and limited resources contributed to this phenomenal pace of development, it's in stark contrast to the glacial pace of the SLS project (Boeing/Nasa) which is much better funded.
If there's something I've had to accept is that at the end of the day, societal changes are realized either because the alternative causes financial losses or the "new thing" will bring in higher profit. For example, "pink money"[1].

More energy efficient maybe. But I'd much prefer a city where every of the (hopefully few) car/scooter engines is either electric, or the exhaust spews water vapor.
> the sulphur emitted by the ships is simply re-routed from the exhaust and expelled into the water around the ships, which not only greatly increases the volume of pollutants being pumped into the sea, but also increases carbon dioxide emissions.

This should be a crime
Thanks, you are right. Looks like blood pH must remain between 7.35 and 7.45 or else serious negative effects occur. Solubility change would be negligible.
I'm using Erlang for a production system at work and I completely agree, the error messages tend to be terrible. Once you've run into many errors you start recognizing patterns though (part of the problem is that the errors are not English sentences but data dumps with indicators like `badfun`, these you just have to learn to interpret) and Erlang makes up for the bad error messages in other ways. But yes, often I end up reasoning through the code to solve the problem, with the error message only roughly pointing me in the right direction, to a larger extent than in other languages.
Time/effort/security/performance, really? IIRC the reasons to consider Erlang is purely to do with building a fault tolerant highly distributed system.
> The actual market in China for foreign companies is miniscule.

That's simply not true. China is a massive market for a huge number of foreign firms. VW has the largest share of the Chinese auto market. Starbucks has thousands of stores in China. Chinese supermarkets are filled with Western brands you'd recognize. I'm not just cherry-picking examples here: you could go sector by sector in the Chinese economy and see massive foreign investment in many of them.
I am answering the question,

> Is there anyone that even knows what "Domain join" means?

And the answer is, “IT specialists supporting Windows in corporate environments.” Generally speaking. I honestly cannot understand the motive or purpose for the rest of your comment, which seems to be about the needs of small businesses, which is not germane.

> Given that your stated alternative was home users, you seem to have excluded just about the entire world of small businesses with that definition.

Right, because I am specifically talking about IT specialists, who “administer Windows professionally”. This is the usual definition of “professionally”, that you “profess” to do something. If I talk about people who “write professionally”, this also does not include people who happen to write emails, memos, and other ordinary correspondence at work.

But this doesn’t really exclude small business, since it’s common for small businesses (and medium) to contract IT services.
Haven't touched Erlang but has an entry level knowledge on Elixir. I often heard how easy it is to write macros on Elixir. Can you elaborate on this?
I use Bear, which is a note app for iOS/macOS. It uses Markdown, it has all the features I need, and it is fast with sync. Because it has a really clean, minimalistic UI, I don't get distracted. This is my main tool know, but as most of the people who are even thinking about this, I'm not fully satisified. Separation of personal/work stuff is questionable, sometimes I feel I need better visualization (like mindmaps), and I regularly use it for todos too which is not the best if you also use a standalone todos app (TickTick).
And as I saw someone else say, the welds on a water tower also have to be good under pressure, otherwise the water tower bursts and dumps all its water.

I think it has to do with design. They wanted to make the two top rows have the same amount of lights. Using 6 would mean one row of 6 lights and one of 4. 5^2 is the smallest square that provides enough values to fit 24 hours.

It's really irksome when someone tells me I consent to something that I don't. I'm the authority on whether or not my keys were used improperly—no one else.

You used my keys in a way in which I did not want. That's the beginning and the end of it.

I hope you got paid a lot for it.

The appeal to nature fallacy means: A is natural, and B is not, therefore A is better.

You example is somewhat orthogonal, I think. You argue for sustainability as an axiomatic value (and I agree) - but sustainability is not an automatic consequence of something being natural!

Asbestos is natural, but using asbestos is not sustainable (for humans). Arsene is naturally occuring in ground water, yet we don't want to have it there and meticulous measure its presence. Mercury is natural, yet unsustainable when in contact with living beings. Predators overhunting prey in year 1, then starving to death in year 2 is natural. Disabled humans dying as children is natural and so on.
You are missing the forest for the trees.
I wished he just used the word 'bad' instead of 'poor'. I thought this is about cash-strapped programmers.
Subpixel AA is absolutely not unnecessary these days. I've seen a few programs switch off from it recently (in favor of grayscale AA) and every time it's been noticably more blurry. For example, Discord had a bug that disabled it just a few weeks ago (which has been fixed since), and Twitch's redesign also disabled it in their desktop app (which is why I now use Twitch almost exclusively on Firefox). Both of these apps are based on electron/chromium though, so text rendering, even with grayscale AA, could be better in some other programs.

Unless we completely abandon small font sizes or switch exclusively to high-dpi screens (will likely happen eventually, but we're not there yet), subpixel AA can look much sharper than grayscale AA if properly configured and you're not sensitive to the color fringes (personally, sitting at about an arm's length from my monitor, I don't notice them at all). And I'd rather not have text rendering quality suddenly downgraded on my existing peripherals before that happens.
Tilt5's tabletop augmented realty system is awesome because it works. Multiple users can share and interact with the same virtual/physical space.
One could argue that this also effects Blue Origin, who still haven't reached orbit 19 years after being founded.
Yeah I suspected it is just a web game. I am so sorry you have decided to make it web based. I have webgl disabled as it is common for websites to use it for fingerprinting and I will not enable it.
I guess the new law reads "Can't release sulphur into atmosphere", so the shipping companies were thinking of ways around that. Why not say "Can't release … into environment", which would cover air, sea, ground, space and everything else around us?
It's perfectly legal to recruit someone thru very careful Facebook advertising of just the right ideology and demographics and then offer to relocate them. So long as you don't discuss voting, or how they will vote it's not electioneering.

I think the idea here is to reduce ad spend rather than to discriminate, but it has the side effect of the latter.

You can be perfectly willing to hire a 55 year old female construction worker, but you’ll probably save money by only advertising construction jobs to men aged 20-50.
> Renewable energy becomes the leading source of primary energy consumption by 2050 in the Reference case—although consumption increases for all primary energy sources.

Despite all effort and renewable use rapidly increasing, hydrocarbon use will steady increase 2019-2050 due to increasing energy demand in non-OECD countries (both industrial and end consumption).
Hypothesis : the simulation is shit and they should go back to the workbench.
It's not about those brands really being sustainable etc. - it's about their claims (the same with food and their labels).

If those claims seem authentic enough they will ease the mind of the customers it helps them enjoy their spent money again though deep down they should know how bad this consumption is for our environment and the poor people involved in the production.
Observations on Observability

You can absolutely do anything you can do in Erlang in another language. Some tasks will be easier, or harder, however.

In my mind, Erlang excels in a few ways:

Less often remarked, binary parsing in Erlang is rather nice. Parsing out an IPv4 packet looks like this:

<<4:4, IHL:4, _DSCP:6, _ECN:2, _TotalLength:16,
_Id:16, 0:1, _DF:1, MF:1, FragmentOffset:13,
_TTL:8, Protocol:8, _IPChksum:16,
SrcIP:4/binary, DestIP:4/binary, IPRest/binary>> = Payload,
OptsSize = (IHL - 5) * 4,
<<_IPOptions:OptsSize/binary, IPPayload/binary>> = IPRest,

And then you've got everything. As long as formats are reasonably documented, it's easy to parse them. Sometimes, you can even parse a size and use the size in the same match.

More often remarked; because of the language constraints, most notably a lack of shared memory between processes and immutable variables, most programming ideas end up expressed in a way that's amenable to massive concurrency, while being comprehensible. Most Actors have easy to understand behavior --- they may accept messages, leading to them sending messages and changing their internal state. From there, you may need to puzzle out the overall system behavior, but often times, getting each individual Actor's behavior correct, leads to correct (if hard to verify) system behavior.

Hot loading code reduces deployment time, which increases developer productivity. When you've got a million users connected to a machine, it takes a lot of time to move them to other machines so you can do a traditional stop / start cycle; hot loading means you can fix things in seconds (and, of course, it means you can break things in seconds too). You can, of course, hotload in C, and probably other languages, but very few people do it. It's comparable to pushing PHP files though.

And, of course, the most important thing is ejabberd is in Erlang, and it looks like it has what we need for a chat server, and I heard some other people scaled it really far. ;)
It's interesting and revealing that you (deliberately?) fail to mention how you arrived at these numbers.

It's almost as if you have absolutely no clue how good you actually are at catching bullshitters.
I couldn’t agree more.

Soyouz is simple.

Soyouz is reliable.

Soyouz is cheap.

Soyouz is in use for 50+

Soyouz is still there while NASA has no launcher available nowadays, despite decades of « on the edge innovation ».

Soyouz is great. Its an engineering marvel.

And Starship is likely to become even greater.
I don’t know, there seem to be various levels of anonymity with different social implications. Let’s roughly differenciate between:

1. Full Anonymity (no way to differenciate between user A and B except by the content)

2. Anonymous Pseudonymity (Users can take usernames, but they don’t mean a lot because they can be changed fast and there is no per user post history)

3. Accountbuilding Pseudonymity (Users usually stick to their accounts, Per user post history or karma is visible and meaningful)

4. Mandatory Real Names (on top of the stuff in point 3 you also have to use your real name - but face no consequences if you make something up)

5. Enforced Real Names (same as point 4, but the service provider has to check your identity)

Positive effects of mandatory real name policies could never been proven — as far as I know they haven’t improved civility e.g. on facebook.

I believe the secret lies more in the feedback systems and how easy it is to flip or flop your position away from what you historically said. It helps if all community interactions or rules are clear and minimalistic instead of arbitrary and arcane.

All of this together weakens or strengthens the impact of the kind of user you mentioned. So in short: the emergent culture on really bad image boards is also part of their systemic design, just like it is with hn, facebook, instagram and any other online plattform. I think the type mentioned in point 3 (accountbuilding) paired with clever measures to keep the aims of the community aligned help a lot.
> ...in very little time and effort.

You have a very naive view of large-scale distributed systems. For companies that truly need them, "time" and "effort" are never a consideration. Furthermore, the challenges facing these companies in battling project delays and cost overruns are the 100% organizational and political, not technical.
My OpenStreetMap Workflow: Mapping the Village of Marmari, Evia
I'm reminded of an old Weekly World News article in which a man tiring of losing his keys so often took the drastic step of having a surgeon implant keys at the end of of his fingers, so he could never lose a key again!

The photo they used to accompany the outrageous story was hilarious. Nowadays, that doesn't seem as far-fetched of an idea, with somewhat similar futuristic key implant methods becoming more readily available.
In the Netherlands this exists as Blendle. It worked so well and “threatened” news paper revenue that the news papers now starting their own alternative. The interesting bit is that news papers also make some articles available for free which are paid for on the Blendle platform.

Seems like time killed the adoption of Dart into Chrome.

The chrome team had "been wanting to fix Webkit for a very long time, and the Blink fork made that possible"

Moving Blink from ref counting to a traced GC was part of that fix, it also was required to be completed to allow the Dart VM to be added to chrome. What was supposed to take months took years and with no end in sight the Dart team announced that its VM would not ship with chrome.

Good. The only fast fashion brand I truly like is uniqlo, but forever 21 was always at the bottom of my list. All of their clothing had prints that looked like it came out of a machine learning algo that wasn't trained properly. I dont understand how they afforded to open these giant stores in the hottest malls. A fun game that I played with friends is to go into f21, try on clothes and see who can assemble the most absurd outfit.

"Is security policy via DNS really a good way to go? There are other, imo more effective, ways of handling this. If your security policy can be defeated by using a DoH resolver, it’s evidently not very hard to bypass."

Same argument can be done for firewall that filters traffic using IP addresses. In the same words, it can be said that, if your firewall security policy can be defeated by using VPN, its evidently not very hard to bypass.

Just like firewall is useful for security, so is DNS based policies.

Cloudflare is doing good job but, the concern is centralization. Its not going to be good to have most internet resources being resolved via Cloudflare DoH, then accessed via Cloudflare CDN.

ESNI will take a lot of time to gain meaningful market share. There are people still arguing that their website does not need to use HTTPS since they are just a static website or do not have login/user data. Such people completely fail to understand that HTTPS is not to protect them but to their end users from MiTM script injection attacks.
Of course you're welcome to share your philosophy if you do so in a way that's substantive and relevant. But please do it without being so aggressive. "Read the drivel from celebrities on your carefully filtered twitter feed if you don't ever want to be offended" is the sort of flamewar style we don't want here.

It's not primarily that a comment like that is so bad in its own right. It's that it tends to produce worse from others and, compounded over time, that destroys the community.

Claiming sustainability and being sustainable are two different things. For instance "C&A" is making a lot of things from "Bio Cotton", but you if search for Bio Cotton on their website https://www.c-and-a.com/uk/en/corporate/company/sustainabili... you find this:

"BIO COTTON is all of that. It guarantees you that no genetically modified seeds are used, it supports farmers, saves the environment and feels good for you and your loved ones."
