Why in the world would that be an OSHA issue?

I have a feeling this is like asking if you could take the community out of Little Italy in NYC.

For the tourist coming in, looking through the windows, having a canoli, does the community really matter? Are they even visible in the throngs of the crowd?

But for the people who live there day in and day out, the expulsion of a popular shop owner from their midst might be quite perturbing and a big stir.

At the end of the day, without those shop owners who come back every day, Little Italy probably would not be the same pleasant experience for the tourists. I imagine it’s similar for the largely invisible to the end user stack exchange community.
Another shout-out for Karabiner. It's amazing.

I was using Linux primarily, but recently switched fully to MacOS. With an IBM Model-M keyboard (old-school, missing the Apple/Window keys), I wouldn't be able to live without Karabiner.
It also moved a lot of pollution to the suburbs of Paris, outside of the bobo area where Hidalgo, her cronies and her supporters lives, that was the only goal. She don't care about the people in the suburbs who get even more pollution.
My experience actually is with zsh, it is about remote-access, and I cannot interrupt it with Ctrl-C.

The particular case is normal filepath completion on an NFS mount where the NFS server is a very old Unix OS using a very old version of the NFS protocol. The thing is that while the server hangs under particular circumstances, and zsh is trying to read the directory to autocomplete paths, the kernel cannot return from the normal FS system calls that are invoked, and the process gets stuck in uninterruptible IO. Not even SIGKILL works then.
I would have thought that getting blood into trauma patients in the field would be the main application for this?

Once back in a hospital setting they could switch to using real blood.
If only that were true.
I used to run this on a Sansa Clip+. It was an amazing combination: great audio quality, expandable storage via microSD, playback of a huge array of formats natively, it ran DOOM, and it only costed around $40 when it was new.

Now I just use my phone and streaming, but I sort of miss that era.

At least in my experience, it's not the drivetrain you need to worry about. It's all the electronics and sensors - from antitheft to odometers to AC.

That's why I'm not terribly optimistic on Tesla reliability. Powertrains rarely fail in the first place.
That's 37% of income taxes not 37% of all taxes. Also important is those numbers will be based on the federal and reported income numbers not based on the amount they actually earn much of which can be shifted around to specifically avoid the top marginal rate.
Do you think the wealthiest 400 households have had a significant change in wealth/income makeup in the last 70 years? The article is highlighting that something has changed, and they are suggesting its tax policy not investment decisions.

I think what's missing is how to assess whether what you've build actually does what it's meant to do. Too many textbooks (actually almost all of academia) boil evaluation down to the calculation of a handful of narrow metrics.

But really understanding the failure modes of what you've made is much harder than that. Unfortunately I don't have a magic bullet or even a reference for that side of things. It's just something I've learned on the job. To paraphrase the Anna Karenina principle [0]:

All good models are alike; each bad model is bad in its own way.

I agree that corporation taxes are a bad idea, however I don't understand your argument about the tax rates in spain. How do they "keep the rich rich and make it much, much harder for the poor/middle class to move up"? You said yourself that the marginal income above 60k is taxed at 45% - that's clearly heavily taxing the rich
yeah, but there's no way he's not gray/blacklisted from entry on his new passport with that sort of outstanding tax bill.
Yup, that's why Mac App Store apps are sandboxed. The Mac App Store is the experience we're describing: install an app and use it without having to call tech support or worry about malware.
The Milky Way is ~150,000 - 250,000 light years across, and rotates -- call it a galactic year -- once every 240 million years. At that scale, 3.5 million years would be like about 5 days relative to Earth's year.

So: earlier this week, more or less.
Standard "new programming language" question(s): What's the memory management aspect like? Is there garbage collection?

LLVM has some support for garbage collection, but I've never heard of any language implementors actually being happy with what it offered in terms of features, correctness, and performance. (Counterexamples would be welcome.)
Its send to collections. So you're only fine if you are poor enough to not have anything they can take from you. And at that point you are eligible for gov support to your healthcare bill anyway.

Here in germany you can actually kind of get away with not paying for a while when not consuming. But coverage has to be continuous, so if you need insurance since you want to go to the doctor a few years down the line, you have to pay up for the entire period.
Sounds like it would be far simpler and easier for everyone if the state provided healthcare services paid by everyone through taxes.
I cannot upvote this enough. Why do these companies pay us all this money and then burn it with this nonsense?
So double it or even triple it. You could redistribute it all among the 20k people impacted and we are till only talking about $20 - $30 per month. That would certainly help people, but it isn't going to by life changing money.

CEO pay seems like a constant red herring. If we care about inequality, we are probably better off focusing our attention on our tax system (this story [1] is also on the front page of HN at the moment) which has a much bigger impact than CEO pay.

Indeed, to make a standup more straightforward we usually just fix 3 questions to everyone:

1. What are you working on?

2. Are you having any blockers?

3. What are you going to work on next?

In reality it's just about blockers and seeing the next direction.

No need to embellish or 'stuff' any of these responses. It was kind of natural when we used to have a real storyboard, the one with post-it stickies. So the standup would be a good time to move the stories to done or todo side.

Well, the whole idea kind of sputters when there're significant status disbalances on the team. For one, the dev members get into status-report mode, while the managers get into i'm-busy-with-important-meetings mode. For the other, it's harder for mangement members of a team to align their ways of staying busy with 'ant-like' activity of devs. Also in such context a 'blocker' suddenly signals a kind of a failure, lack of efficiency that has to be owned, instead of a usual work issue. Who wants to own a failure?Ironically, the management can be instrumental in resolving intra-dept blockers.

Any team is about mutual trust, so if the standup does not serve the needs of the whole team, I'd just reserve that time to those members that see a benefit from it. Find another way to interface with other members (mgmt?), maybe a questions queue or some briefs pipeline.
We ended up getting a second Model 3 as we felt all the other options weren't as appealing. The SR+ (which also has 240 miles of range) is not $20k more than a Bolt and is an amazing value of a car. It has the majority of the benefits of the more expensive Model 3 variants and I felt I got the same car for $20k less than my first one.
No, rail is always more expensive, even at the lowest spec'ed design loads. It becomes more cost effective the heavier the loading, not lighter. But AREMA ensures it's pretty much always more expensive.
> And US/international roaming... is so high that I just go without or buy a local SIM.

I've found trying to function internationally without my normal SIM to be essentially unworkable due to losing my ability to receive 2FA SMS codes, and since moving from the Lumia to the Pixel line-up, the phones I use no longer have dual-SIM capabilities.

If my app completely stops working during a beta, are you suggesting that I should just wait until the actual release to find out that my app is in fact really broken should that be the case? And only then develop a new release for my app and release it as soon as possible, all the while having a deficient product for however long this may take?

I've always viewed a beta as a way to test that my app has not regressed. If it has, I open issues with Apple (or whomever). If these issues are either cited as not-to-be-fixed or I hear nothing back, I will create a release of my apps that works around whatever issues are there. IMO determining breaking changes in beta versions allows one to develop fixes as well as create and plan the rollout of the new software before the beta goes lives (and therefore avoid any regression/downtime).

I don't see how it should affect the speed of delivery that the Amazon employees gets paid for their time? But yeah it might affect the price - or Amazon might be able to optimize the "security check" if they have to compensate workers for the wasted time.

>A really disproportionate percentage of the burden needs to be taken on by investors.

Fifty four percent of equities are held by households and mutual funds. Add in another 15% for pensions, and you arrive at roughly 70% of the stock market belonging to people saving for retirement. Investors are the "average people."

> The reluctance comes when nobody has any idea what we're going to replace it with.

The straightforward answer is to replace it with self-paid insurance plans. Even without redesigning our awful system of medical payments in the US, we could easily get rid of the “employer pays” part.
Contrarian argument regarding point 2:

I find it weird and misguided how people think that using coercion to force people into buying healthcare is somehow acceptable. To those that think it will make the cost of healthcare more expensive for the rest of us, I think that is a dubious assertion, in fact I think it will get much cheaper. The presumption that they are in contentious debate with is the necessity that different people have to get different tiers of service based on how much they pay.

It makes all the sense in the world when you compare it to any other business. You wouldn't expect for someone who paid $1M to get the same level of treatment as someone who paid $100.

People would buy insurance according to different tier levels of quality and risk profile, with their being astronomically high costs of insurance for old wealthy rich people, who in their desire to prolong life will incentivize creation of new modes of treatment to cure themselves (Which in the short run the development of which will help them, but in the long run, everyone, as after it gets discovered and scaled it will get cheaper).

People would also buy cheaper level of tiers, from which naturally the quality of treatment, and queues will get lower/longer.

You will also have people that don't buy insurance, and this should be their prerogative to do, as it would be the healthcare providers prerogative to decide whether to provide them with free treatment (they are not slaves, they are not obligated to provide a free service, and what makes the people that don't pay more important or a higher priority than those that willingly pay and fund these services).

I'm not saying that this is the BEST solution, I'm saying that this is BETTER than anything else proposed which leads to things like the "cobra effect" in which you make the initial problem way worse by the implemented solution, than by what it would have been without it.

We have basically 'Medicare for all' in Australia. Works well. We spend way less as a proportion of GDP than the US on healthcare and the hospitals in the big cities (where they send people for anything serious) are world class.

Most things like GPs, physiotherapists, etc. are private but the Medicare system pays for something like 60% to 100% of the bill depending on various factors. You won't usually pay more than $30 for a standard GP consult, for example.

Crazily, the private insurers (it's optional) are trying to push for tax breaks to employers if they pay for private health insurance for their employees (more like the US system but basically unheard of here), despite the fact that the private system is already heavily subsidised (big rebate on private health insurance and also tax benefits for moderate and high income earners), and despite the fact that our public system is more efficient (according to studies), so we'd actually be better off just investing that cash in the public system (because of underfunding there are waiting lists for a lot of elective surgery).

But the private insurance industry is generally struggling because they've been raising premiums and reducing service (more exclusions and bigger excesses) and our public system is good.
Today we require a set of credentials along with the login URL. We take the security very seriously and we made sure that these values travel and are stored encrypted; also, once the crawl is complete we redact the username and password provided.

While this solution works for most sites out of the box, we also added flexibility to this procedure: we support custom CSS selectors, two-step forms (i.e. enter username, hit next, then enter password and hit `sign in`) and forms inside modals that have to be revealed. From our own tests and from our users so far we feel we cover most regular login scenarios.

However, there are more cases that we want to cover in the future. For example two-factor authentication scenarios. One alternative that we've discussed for our next iteration is providing a browser plugin so you can "grab" the session data and send it to us so we can reuse it. That way there are no credentials being shared and we'd also get the benefit of getting more complex login systems to work :)

This has been one of the most difficult features that look easy on paper but then get more complicated as you work on them, so feedback and ideas are more than welcomed!

> If you buy a camry or prius you know almost for a fact, that your going to drive 200k miles without a problem, and if there is one, its recognized as an engineering failure and the dealership fixes it for free - and fast.

Nope, I had a Prius develop a problem where the entire dash display died at 105k, there was a previous recall for selected units of Prius for the same fault (not my S/N lot), but when it happened to me, I had to pay for a new one. You can see online where hackers fix the problem where it's a manufacturing fault with cold solder joints coming loose in the power circuitry. Complained to Toyota corporate about it, and they sent it back to the same dealership manager to rule against paying for it. Talked to other Prius owners that they did the same thing to. Makes me think twice about Toyota warranty coverage.
Maybe this is a specifically English thing, and not an issue in your native language (assuming you're not a native English speaker), but the idea of putting on an accent carries a LOT of baggage.

I think it happens to the extent that people will sometimes tailor/'round off' their accent and vocabulary depending on context.
But people are attached to their accents - it's part of who they are - and having to put on somebody else's accent in certain contexts is not something that most people would be okay with. The idea that, for example, I would affect a, say, American accent if I was making YT videos, is completely crazy. Let alone in everyday life.
I have had the opposite experience, FWIW. Dealers get reimbursed by the MFG for warranty claims, so I've had them cover things out of warranty or give me a rental car so they can pocket the money from the mfg. To the degree the last Jeep service I did they were SUPER pushy about giving me one of their "Rentals"
This a tangent to the topic of the article, but it is an interesting tangent: There are many ways in which having coherent quantum states permits better sensors (sensing anything that is related to a Electric/Gravitational/Magnetic field, voltage, current, intensity, frequency, so basically all kinds of areas).

- coherent superposition of multiple sensors improve the signal to noise ratio

- improving beyond the diffraction limit of telescopes, by quantum-entangling multiple sensors

- using constructs similar to quantum error correcting codes to make measurements more resilient to noise

And these above are just the generic suggestions that are discussed in grad classes. When you dig into it there are so many other amazing quantum tricks to do.

If society was a rich person with 1 billion paying $1M in taxes, and a regular person with $50K income paying $10K in taxes, the rich person would have paid nearly 99% of all taxes.

And yet, they would have paid a pittance compared to their income (not to mention wealth), and it would absolutely no impact on their purchasing power or lifestyle (where the 10K of the 50K could make the difference between having savings, or having a health operation, or sending the kids to college, and many other important things).

That's how irrelevant and unilluminating is this kind of metric...

Bitcoin is good because there is a fixed supply. The scarcity of it means basic supply and demand market mechanics are in play. It’s price is volatile because people with a lot of money can move the price easily by simply buying and selling large amounts of it. The value has steadily increased year over year though, and eventually there will be sufficient market depth which will help stabilize prices. It’s also good because banks can easily prevent you from accessing your own money. When your money is in bitcoin, no one can confiscate it, or charge you negative interest rates on it.

Lots of new coins claim to be the next bitcoin, but the truth is, bitcoin is the next bitcoin. Look up the user aantonop on YouTube for why this is the case.
