And yet, you're already taking Sourcehut's money and using it to pay a developer that you've said won't be doing any direct work for Sourcehut [1].

How in the world can you possibly call it "putting users first" to take users' money and use it to pay someone to do things that don't benefit those users? Seems a lot more like you're using the company money to pay for things you want someone to work on, not your users. How can that be the company's top priority and the first hire?

(throwaway account because Drew holds grudges for years when people question him)

It's all noise. Read the 10q and and decide for yourself.
We considered it. We even built some prototypes and showed it to various stakeholders. The response we got back was universal - "We want everything to feel like we are in MS Word."
Data-Driven Ways to Improve Employee Engagement
Memory mapped registers are still a thing today. Here's arm documentation describing memory mapped debug registers for Cortex-R chips:
http://infocenter.arm.com/help/index.jsp?topic=/com.arm.doc....
Even the intel XAPIC (interrupt controller) has a mode which basically uses memory mapped registers for configuring interrupts.
The trick with executing hot loops in registers definitely wouldn't work today, and in some microprocessors the merely reading registers can change the state of external devices.
Among other problems with the sentiment you expressed, it should be clear to anyone that the 2A has always been intended to cover far more than just muskets. At the time the 2nd Amendment was created, rifles were already in popular use and were vastly superior to muskets since they could be shot far more accurately and were able to be reloaded faster than muskets. Saying it only covers primitive rifles (compared to modern tech) would still be inaccurate, but slightly less so.

Under a reasonable interpretation, whether one supports the 2nd Amendment or not, "Arms" covers (at least) anything an individual U.S. soldier might use in war; this includes full-auto weapons, suppressors, night-vision goggles, body armor, grenades.[1]

[1]: If we were shipping items to a foreign country to help them in war, would a news editor be comfortable using the term "Arms" in the headline? If so, the 2A probably protects its ownership by American citizens.
I get automated emails with "Resource name: lozenge". I think it is a system with employees and contractors and they don't want to use the word "Employee" if it's not accurate. But honestly, they could have found another solution...

The point was to compare battery life and care for equipment. I cannot mod the plane to add a 12V socket, but I can use an external battery pack. Still, 5 hours vs several days comparison still makes the smart watch good enough.

"It is evident that placebo effects are real and that they have therapeutic potential. Laboratory evidence supports the existence of numerous placebo mechanisms and effects in both healthy volunteers and patients with a variety of medical conditions. Furthermore, clinically relevant evidence demonstrates that placebo effects can have meaningful therapeutic effects, by virtue of magnitude and duration, in different patient populations. Although substantial progress has been made in understanding placebo effects, considerable scientific work remains to be done in both laboratory experiments and translational clinical trial research, with the ultimate aim of harnessing placebo effects to improve patient care."
> The number of times I've taken a google search that gave me useless results, copied-and-pasted it into duck-duck-go, and immediately found what I'm looking for, is astounding.

I'll bet it's dwarfed by the number of times I get useful results from Google and total garbage from DDG.

Earlier today I searched for "CADT syndrome" to figure out what another HN comment meant by it. Both engines automatically correct that to "cast syndrome" if you search without quotes. But only Google provided a relevant result after being corrected "no, I really meant CADT syndrome". DDG gamely provided the "cast syndrome" results after correcting the query.
Quite insightful - thanks for writing this.

I'd love to see evidence otherwise, but I do think that desktop interfaces are pretty "done" at this point - you can have a couple different paradigms and layouts, but usually it's the same thing - either a Windows 7-style taskbar/start menu layout, or a macOS dock/statusbar layout. There's not been much change in the desktop space in a long time. Features here, animations there, but desktops are relatively stagnant. The cool thing is that you can extend them with other programs if you want, but mostly they're just a way to launch programs. Not a lot of messing around is needed if you ask me.
I've wanted to automate posts to Instagram / find a way to post without using the phone (I spent a 8 months doing daily photography posts, then life happened). Turns out their API TOS is pretty strict, and requires posts to come from a phone.

A low-cost social media posting service is intriguing.
It's not just Boeing, airlines that relied on the Max are losing money too (Southwest in particular is suffering harshly).

There's a 5+ year backlog for new A320s, so switching suppliers simply isn't an option.
...we’ve learnt that his manager commits fraud, that manager commits perjury”... 5xWhy leads to the question “Why are managers under such pressure”, the answer is two-fold: “They want to have a family and a cost of living is high, and they’re ready to die themselves at their desk to make enough money, so they actually care more about the lives of others than their own, which is ironic”, the other is “Because Boeing is fundamentally on older tech than Airbus, so no matter how they press the lemon, they can only squeeze that much.”

See, Boeing was built before Airbus. Airbus benefited from starting at the electronics age, with lessons learnt from Boeing. It had an impact on the design: Airbus is fly-by-wire, Boeing isn’t. Probably all the tech stack of Airbus slightly newer, with slightly newer management methods too (legacy is a curse to get rid of) and easier for them to iterate and upgrade. That alone could explain why each generation of Boeing plane was rushed to the market, including the explosive batteries circa 2010, the broken airframes by Ducommon for 4.7% planes, helped by FAA delegating self-certification of their planes to Boeing itself, and the coup de grace, planes that literally want to aim for the ground in 2019, all of that in 8 years. Ironically they’ve bought McDonnell 20 years ago which was pro at sneaking past FAA regulations. Maybe they’ve “learnt” from MD.

But there are so many others in hiding that we have to throw away the last 20 years of engineering: For example the MCAS had only 1 processor, when all other systems are required to have 2 to 3. We can’t risk 100 lives for each lie Boeing did in the past 20 years.

I’m not sure there is actually a lot to learn that we didn’t know: The FAA shouldn’t delegate Boeing certification to Boeing, managers should not ask employees to drill new holes when the original holes were drilled 3 inches apart and don’t fit, because it endangers the structural integrity, one should not use a hammer to change the shape of the airframe by a full inch, collapsing the I-beam by folding it, compromising the structural integrity, they shouldn’t have lied about changing the features of the MCAS, and the market should have been nicer with their revenue.

Every bankruptcy is sad and unfair. It’s disheartening to fire people who certainly have given all they could to compete with a better competitor. But it’s time to cut the loss, because their failure is ingrained in their engineering and management, and is costing real deaths in real world.

"ISPs providing DNS and caching was a key part of the Pai FCC's reclassification of ISPs as an "information service"..."

I thought the same thing when I read about that decision. Many try to label DNS as "intrastructure", with the implication that some third party and not the user should have control over it. As an ordinary user, I do not use third party DNS. I will never believe that from a technical standpoint all ordinary users must use third party DNS.
You didn't even mention efficiency, which means generally slower charging time/km/kW for Taycan.

On the other hand Porshe is still luxury brand, so I can imagine the interior being more elegant.
The primary negative feedback loop is increased photosynthesis. As CO2 concentrations rise, there's more carbon in the air that can support plant life. There also tends to be both more sunlight (warmer air can support more water vapor before it precipitates into clouds) and more water (in absolute terms, from increased evaporation).

Note that in the near term, the negative feedback of photosynthesis may be overwhelmed by changes in ecosystems: if the climate changes rapidly, whole forests may find themselves in a different biome, ocean circulation patterns may change, more freshwater may enter estuaries, etc. Plants evolve quickly, though, and most of their carbon sequestration is through algae and seaweed with short lifespans.
The current policy has been in effect since the Korean War. It’s difficult to compare pre-war policy to today. Border activity was mostly about taxation in those days.

The only new thing is the increased size of the sprawling bureaucracy of Customs and the Border Control, and the increased tempo of operations.

The real problem is the growth of executive power and the supine nature of the Congress and courts. This particular issue has attention due to the disgusting conduct of the current administration. We live in an era where the President believes that he posses banana republic like presidential immunity and executive privilege.
I genuinely believe it will.
> I'm sure there are shops out there that end up using agile and don't become these ridiculous monstrosities, but I feel like those shops would be successful with or without agile.

I think that's the key. Agile isn't a silver bullet, it's just a tool. If your problems are screws and you grab a screwdriver, you're probably in good shape. It works great for my team, because we all trust each other and genuinely take the quality of our product to heart. It doesn't work for our neighboring team because nobody gives a fuck besides getting credit for all of the good stuff and deflecting blame for all of the bad stuff.

I don't have a whole lot of faith in "there's one way to run a team/be a leader and you do it like this" sort of thing. The style of leadership I was taught in the military would not fucking fly on my team, but honestly, it would serve my neighboring team fairly well. Their problems are nails.
You can still do some extraordinary things in the physical space at warp speed in the US. SpaceX is doing exactly that right now with their new Starship rocket. An entire automobile manufacturing plant of that size, in a major economy? Today that can only be accomplished in China, it can't be done in the US or Europe any longer.
Isn't it well documented that the human moderators who do exist at places like facebook and youtube end up having their mental health screwed after they watch so much disturbing content?

Just throwing human moderators at the problem probably has more cost than just the salaries involved.
The US isn't the largest consumer market, but it's a big one and full of easy cash. It'd be nice to see America put up a moral barrier of entry to prevent pro-facist business operation and it'd be easy to tally on a balance sheet so everyone would be hit equally.
Only if Google has a branch in Syria that is destroying the evidence for a legal action in Syria. Laws are linked to territories, US law is not applicable in Syria and the other way around.

There is a solar version of the Fenix 6 (the slightly less ridiculously priced sportswatch brother of the MARQ series), and according to most reviews, it barely makes a dent on battery life. I wouldn't hold my breath for self-sufficiency.

The only way that could be true is if they had 100% of the market.

Which is far from the case. Most cars in the global fleet aren't even electric yet, let alone Tesla.
Exact title matches don't match on IMDB or Amazon books, either. I don't think it's nefarious, it's just IMDB and Amazon think I don't know what I'm searching for.
Am I alone thinking the originals are way better than the processed versions, even in the demo on that link? Somehow all this excessive tone filtering, "smart" unsharp masking, artificial noising and noise-filtering - all that computational stuff - takes the life out everything? The dynamic range is narrow. Stuff is compressed into flat mess of colors, similarly to how they compress audio these days. Huge "ringing" artifacts on contrasting edges. Gross. How is that elevated photography?
There's actually a group working on this exact thing at the federal level -- https://congressionaldata.org/bulk-data-task-force-reports-m...

It's a pretty complex task, especially at the state level where there often aren't consistent plaintext publishings, or in some cases even digital versions of the effected code/regulations.
After seeing no code in their repo I was interested in the same. The important parts are in https://stealingurfeelin.gs/js/events.min.js

You've left out some important parts of the iq calculation, with the full equation being:

reactions = dogPos + Math.abs(menPos - womenPos) + Math.abs(whiteNegative - nonWhiteNegative) + kanyePos) / 4;
iq = Math.floor(15 * -((reactions - 0.0005) / 0.05) + 100);
if (iq < 100) {
thatPartBitSFX.play()
} else {
thatPartWaySFX.play()
}

Also amusingly rebulican percentage is calculated as:

reactions = (dogPos + kanyePos + nonWhiteNegative) / 3;
republicanPct = 50 + 15 * ((reactions - 0.05) / 0.1),

And income is calculated as:

reactions = (iq / 100 + republicanPct / 50 + dogPos) / 3
estimatedIncome = Math.floor(200000 * (reactions - 0.5) + 31099),
if (estimatedIncome < 31099) {
isPoorSFX.play()
} else {
isNotPoorSFX.play()
}
Tap water database: A breakdown of pollutants found in America's tap water
Nitpick, but there are some transformations that our current computers (or our current mathematics moreso) cannot do, for example, a continuous form of the Fourier Transform. We only possess discrete formulations of it. But in nature, light passing through a prism or diffraction grating performs an equivalent operation (presumably) continuously. So as of right now, nature is still more powerful than our strongest computers.
Can you give some examples of politically controversial results google might be censoring?
Yeah lately I've been shocked about the search result quality as well, way too often I am getting almost all seo spam results on google. I was actually reading their 10k earnings report a while back, Google specifically highlighted spam/seo results as a threat to their business. Most google users probably have never even heard of duck duck go before, I doubt they are in any kind of risk of losing market share.
“Paper of making up the record”, as they say.

As always, it's because they performed much better than Wall St expected, who expected another operating loss.

TSLA is particularly volatile because they run the risk (and many analysts believe) that they will run out of cash before they can achieve profitability, so their share price have carried a lot of risk that have hampered its price from its $400's highs. This surprising profit effectively significantly weakens the risk giving investors more confidence they'll continue to be around for the long term to dominate the EV market.
True on CL (which I wouldn't quite recommend for normal use though its performance is really tempting for developers). But I found the same with Fedora earlier this year. And Ubuntu in the more distant past. It's more-or-less worth it to me, though I do vacillate. The available OS options are all rubbish, each in their distinct way.
is anyone surprised?
Not-for-profit outfits also have budget constraints, agendas, and bow to outside pressures (donors, politicians, lawsuits, etc.).
There are always restrictions to mitigate the extreme cases.

EG: You can't own fully automatic weapons manufactured after 1986. What this restriction does is create an [artificial] floor price on any fully auto stuff to deter casual purchase - to the point a completely ghetto MAC-10 costs like $8K-9K, but because it was made before 1986 it is good to go. (To be clear, as a multi-gun owner, I think this is a fair compromise between no regulations and no guns.)

Another: Unauthorized possession of a nuclear weapon is banned by multiple laws, not just one, for example. Also if your desire to attempt to possess or possess said nuclear weapon was coupled with the intent to use it, well, that's another felony layered on.

Not trying to be overly-pedantic, but when people say "will not be infringed" I translate that to mean handguns, shotguns, and rifles (up to semi-automatic). Anything beyond those definitions start getting into what I will concede are legitimate "weapons of war" (machine guns, explosives, biological weapons) which merits restriction.

In the US, anything bigger than a 50 caliber round is classified as a "destructive device". Also included in that categories are grenade launchers, artillery shells, and I believe technically nuclear weapons. Interestingly enough flamethrowers are not classified as destructive devices.
A better, more modern citation would be Gonzales v. Raich (2005), which upheld federal power to prohibit homegrown cannabis, even in a situation where it was stipulated (IIRC) that Raich's marijuana would never leave her house. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gonzales_v._Raich

Notably, both Justice Kennedy and Justice Scalia voted in the majority. Chief Justice Rehnquist was as apoplectic about that vote as Kennedy and Scalia were when Chief Justice Roberts sided with the majority to uphold the Obamacare individual mandate.

IMO, the liberal majority had the better argument on the individual mandate precisely because Scalia and Kennedy couldn't bring themselves to draw a line at homegrown cannabis. They were stuck relying on a ridiculous theory about affirmative obligations as they had already blew their chance at cabining the reach of interstate commerce, per se.

The Constitution uses a convention-over-configuration approach in almost all respects. Quite a lot of the actual effect are dependent on the build environment. Attempting to execute a source-identical Constitution outside of a Common Law context is not guaranteed to produce the same results, and is probably outright undefined behavior.

Sometimes I post things that I know will be controversial, and other times I'm surprised by what turns out to be controversial. I certainly didn't expect generalizing "look both ways before crossing the street" to be controversial.

I fear perhaps some have mistaken me for a habitual driver who wants to blame pedestrians. That couldn't be further from the truth. I am a habitual pedestrian with a rational fear of drivers.
I've seen that in one of the default apps on Windows Phone (fairly sure it was the Photos app - quite recently too).

If you're curious of the origin of each word, a word-by-word "git blame", I just made a visualization of that [1]. For example, "We the people" comes from the draft by Morris.

Also, somebody else did the work a few years ago [2], would be interesting to compare them.

Most Linux DEs do not use a lot of memory (don't know about Gnome). They do require accelerated 3D or 2D, but run well within the RAM envelope of a 2006 machine.

The problem is, running on the CPU does not make your DE faster (it's the other way around), memory that is the largest problem isn't an issue, there is some heavy disk usage on load time, but then none, and there isn't much of a CPU load. They can't run on a 2006 machine, but it does not extend into your VM.
The allegation here is pretty weak. They just report large meetings, which can have many purposes.

The Power of Presence
People keep posting this case like its supposed to be wrong.

But like the McDonalds Hot Coffee case, when you learn the facts about what actually happened, you realize the case was properly decided all along and those that say otherwise are just spreading ideologically based FUD.

Wickard is not about the crops Filburn grew for personal consumption.

It was about the extra crops he grew just cause. He didn't just grow a little bit extra. He grew hundreds of barrels of wheat extra, meaning several fields more than he was allowed. Filburn claims he was just going to use this excess wheat at home, despite having no means to consume such quantities. Clearly, unless he was actually going to let valuable quantities of crop go to waste, he was intending to sell them to someone.

And if Filburn got away with it, then everyone else would try to do the same. And in a year or two, the national wheat restrictions intended to stabilize the price of wheat would fail as prices collapsed from hoarded inventory entering the market. And wheat farmers would go bankrupt and pull out of growing wheat during a war. So of course SCOTUS ruled against him.

If Filburn hadn't completely blown past the wheat restrictions, there wouldn't be a SCOTUS case about him today.
>This is a volume problem that has no real solution. [...] it's a shame that this kind of content is getting removed

It's not a volume problem though, because the videos are never removed. They are just effectively delisted. Homeland Security shows up and I guarantee YouTube hands the videos over to them. So YouTube has plenty of space.

Of course that also means that the original complaint of YouTube destroying evidence is also bogus, but answering a bogus complaint with a bogus excuse as the pro YouTube crowd seems to be doing doesn't really get us anywhere.
