>> Websites with .onion addresses are more resistant to tracking

> Tracking you or tracking the site? The point of .onion isn't to give the user any more protection, it's to give the website protection. With a .onion site you are unable to find the website's IP address.

True, but that's not why the BBC, Facebook, etc. have .onion hosts. I was thinking of the user, since the traffic between a Tor exit node and an open web server is exposed (modulo HTTPS).
Fantastic job!

It doesn't have any significant effect in my experience. Maybe it's my browsing habits that I frequently visit a large number of sites that are new (think sites linked from HN).
From my own experience, unless you are really, REALLY into sports, glasses are infinitely much more better in almost every aspect. Sure, if you are young, you might be afraid you look like a nerd, but trust this old fart, after 25 or so it does not matter at all; if anything, you are perceived as smarter.
I also stayed up until 1-2am, regularly, starting around junior high. I performed a great many tasks, mostly teaching myself various programming languages, always at the relative expense of my concentration in the next day's classes. Two things were the primary motivating factors in developing this habit:

- My parents wouldn't leave me alone for very long in the evenings, so I felt like I wouldn't get a chance to really concentrate until they were off to bed
- My brain gets tired around 10pm like a normal person, but then it gets a "second wind" and is up happily until 3-4am, with intensely increased clarity of focus.

The first trait was obviously correctable and probably circumstantial, but the second feels far more innate. I just focus better right after the sun goes down, and I'm not really sure why. It's like all the stress from the day melts away, and I get a chance to finally be myself for a few hours. So, I work an evening shift (my work day starts at noon and gets out quite late) and I couldn't be happier for it.

It's a shame that this combination is both common, and regarded as lazy by society at large, because it seems to be quite the opposite. I get my best work done in the evenings, and so do lots of other people. I wish that we were generally more accepting of these traits, because if I hadn't had the good fortune to stumble into a job with such a well-aligned shift, I would still be struggling to sleep properly most nights.
15 years ago, a niche artist could earn tens of thousands a year by selling CDs and especially digital albums.

Not enough to make a living, but definitely an encouraging amount that enabled touring and buying more music gear.

Now in the Spotify days that same artist would earn essentially nothing.

This "saving" of the music industry is just a temporary patch that works by redistributing niche money to the mainstream.

It should be quite evident (or at least intuitive) that 90% of Spotify subscribers are niche (deep into rock, electronic, hip hop etc) and couldn't care less about saving the old industry.

Soon this will become unsustainable (even more than today).

The examples on the homescreen simply aren't compelling.

Mindmaps get little traction imo because this first experience is usually dreadful: Simple examples (like you show) are just as well represented by a bulleted list. And complex examples need a really slick and intuitive UI, otherwise they are too painful to create.

My take on it is Markdown in a private Github repo provides 90% of the benefits and a lot of other features, with none of the worry about being locked in to a new company whose product is immature and doesn't have an established track record.

Finally, your posting those 20 free keys to the pro plan just reinforces in my mind the notion that the price-features balance isn't attractive.
I would say React Native. For the things you are doing it works perfectly.
We use JavaScript for sharing code between devices(iOS & Android), browser as well as the server. Surprisingly, we haven't faced any of the problems, that Dropbox claims to have faced (https://blogs.dropbox.com/tech/2019/08/the-not-so-hidden-cos...).

Pros:

1. Sharing native APIs with JS runtime and vice versa, was well supported & trivial to implement.

2. Easy to find skill-set.

3. We can run the same code in browsers as well.

Cons:

1. The app will be slightly heavier in Android (as V8 has to be bundled with the app. iOS allows using native JsCore runtime.)

2. The shared code runs slower (Obvious, because dynamic language).

#1 in the terms of time listened maybe (though your linked article indicates some doubt about that claim) but where's most of the revenue coming from? The article you link states YouTube has the highest total listening time but also has a graph showing audio streaming brings in over 5 times the revenue $5.5bn vs $0.85bn. I think we can safely say the majority of the $0.85bn is YouTube but how much of the $5.5bn is Spotify?

Makes sense. Fractals are a cheap way to achieve complexity on a larger scale with relatively little code. The ancient alien timelords who are running our universe simulation had to be efficient.
"Claimed to have reverse engineered". LOL. I doubt even a US company with full access to the most advanced ITAR controlled tech and equipment could produce one, even if supplied with full blueprints, let alone "reverse engineered" something like this. The thing took cumulatively several decades to figure out. You can't reverse engineer it in a few months. USSR couldn't even reverse engineer the downed U2, a much, much simpler plane, even though at the time it was roughly on par with the US technologically. They struggled with it for a couple of years and canceled the plane. They did use the material science in some of their later planes though.

I didn't even know Japan made whisky (whiskey?) until about a month ago when trying a Nikka Yoichi brought to us by a Japanese colleague. We were very impressed. This was easily as tasty as many of the better Scotch single malts. In fact I bet if people wouldn't see the bottle and would be asked what it was the majority would say 'good Scotch' :)

Your comment seems as much of a distraction as the demands to cut out straws.

Most of the population growth is through ageing, you can have a below replacement level birth rate and expanding population if people live longer.

Not only this but the places that are still growing their population have negligible emissions compared to the developed world.

I had two problems.

First, I really didn't like the tone of the card company. They're selling someone else's work (whether legal or not), and then were condescending toward the person who made it. They say they're just trying to honor Banksy, but they paint him as an out-of-touch rich asshole.

Second, it's hard to know for sure, but I think this analysis misses the bigger point... I feel like opening a small shop that isn't real is very Banksy-esque, and likely is more of a statement on trademark than him actually trying to enforce a trademark. This is clearly just an exhibit + marketing. (It's a glass storefront, after all)

I'm not completely sure about your requirement, but as a game developer who uses Unity everyday, I would recommend it. Core graphics and UI components are available out of the box, and sometimes even when we need an app(nothing like a game) that need to access native APIs of the platform, we use Unity. It used C# as the default language, and platform-specific core logic can be separated within the code, using #directives so it's pretty straightforward.[edit: typo]

Cant you make use of Webview somehow? It has the benefit of being updated from the market if a security issue is found.

We're using kotlin native, after considering rust for a bit. It's been working great, we've had it in production for about six months.

Main advantages are

* kotlin is a nice language with good type support

* has good swift bindings out of the box

* also compiles to js and cpp so we can use it in our Web product as well
I’m surprised more people aren’t talking about the RFP process. For a small product (maybe Jobs would have called it a feature) like a Chatbot, your best hope if you want to hit the enterprise elephants is to find a “digital transformation” RFP, give a really strong reply for the inevitable chatbot feature in round 1, then get rolled in as a “joint proposal” for future rounds with one of the big boys (Accenture, IBM etc). They get to look modern and open to teamwork, you get your foot in the door and the proposal has better chances. Then if it goes well, you’ll get roped into future deals
Not really; you'd just need to be able to leak an address.

Why can't he use copyright? I didn't quite follow this line of thinking in the original article as well. As far as I understand it copyright per se is automatic (nowadays), so you don't have to file for it. So this doesn't prevent him from staying anonymous.

Tradmarks on the other hand have to be registered. How does he hide his anonymity in this case?

Now enforcing his rights is a completely different matter.
He certainly can't hide his name from the courts then and it might even become public. But in this case there is no difference between a copyright lawsuit and a trademark lawsuit.

I don't understand this at all. If you're talking about the culture of making mixtapes/CDs, it's as easy or easier to make and share a playlist on Spotify. And in terms of creating music, free or cheap recording software and distribution platforms make that exponentially easier as well.

Now the music industry will manage to kill itself by being totally incompetent and extremely greedy.

50% of the industry seems to be centred around talent show participants to make a quick buck (no need to pay for marketing).

The other 50% is trying to bite the hand that feeds them, while thinking we are still living in the golden days of music when the coolest thing you could own was the latest Beatles record.

Meanwhile, I have started listening to the British wave music, generating them zero sales...
Well, not everywhere allows discrimination based on sex, some US states don't, for example (California just joined that club last year). Plus the EU doesn't either.

Agree with this and it seems like a really hard process. How is it that every enterprise I have worked at then seems to have one of everything and so many redundant tools. Is it just accumulation of crap over time? Good relationships that cut short this process? Straight up corruption?
I don't see where the problem is with hiring someone who supports Trump's travel ban. I disagree with it and I wouldn't want to drink a beer with that person, but on which level would this hinder me professionally working with that person so long as that person does not abuse their power for their political views, which we must assume, until it can be proven otherwise? Isn't that what democracy is all about? Has the work environment become so casual, that we cannot set aside our differences in a professional setting?

It is a nice game though, and even quite playable. Not to mention it is a great hack.

As for the back button, I would argue that this is a problem that browsers should solve. Even in the wild, it happens often that the first page immediately redirects (via JS) to some other page - good luck using the Back button then. Maybe the page that wasn't displayed for more than ~1s shouldn't exist in history at all, or at least shouldn't be taken into account when pressing Back button? I'm sure even better solutions exist.

Well, developers are the kind of people that love to be contrarian, so it shouldn't be that surprising. Half the fun (in my mind) is doing something no one else is doing. Being novel. It's probably unwise in a business sense, but if everyone was being wise all the time, there wouldn't be much fun in software development.

I've got no problem with people writing hacks for games; with the shit that gets released these days I expect it would often be far more rewarding than playing the game itself.

You're not obligated to be a brutal capitalist as an engineer. It's okay to make decisions that are suboptimal (but still passable) for your employer but highly aligned with your own career interests.

If you always optimize for whichever company is employing you currently, you're doing yourself a disservice and essentially "leaving money on the table" :)
"In condensed matter physics, Hofstadter's butterfly describes the spectral properties of non-interacting two dimensional electrons in a magnetic field. The fractal, self-similar, nature of the spectrum was discovered in the 1976 Ph.D. work of Douglas Hofstadter[1] and is one of the early examples of computer graphics. The name reflects the visual resemblance of the figure on the right to swarm of butterflies flying to infinity. It is one of the rare non-random fractal structures in physics, along with KAM tori.[citation needed] The Hofstadter butterfly plays an important role in the theory of the integer quantum Hall effect, and D.J. Thouless has been awarded the Nobel prize in physics in 2016 for the discovery[2] that the wings of the butterfly are characterized by Chern integers[3], the quantized Hall conductances discovered in 1980 by Klaus von Klitzing for which he has been awarded the Nobel prize in 1985. The colors in the diagram reflect the different Chern numbers."

cassettes and CDs were dirt-cheap to produce but the average consumer hadn't caught on to the fact and on each sale of either the profit margin was tremendous.

The fundamental collapse in profits is because once you could sell an album with 3-4 good tracks and the rest filler, but that’s much harder to do now. People will prefer to buy just the songs they like, so you might get 3x0.99 whereas previously you could have sold the album of 10 tracks for 10.99. The cost of producing the filler tracks was negligible anyway.

Victor Frankl's book, "Man's search for meaning" is also essential reading in my opinion. A few of my takeaways from that book:

1. People are capable of both great evil and great good (often in close proximity).

2. Having a great intellect may, in fact, make someone more compassionate.

3. Finding meaning in a cause, project, person, etc. can allow a person to endure much more than most would expect.

For those who aren't familiar with Frankl's personal background, you'll find many of the relevant details in that book (and perhaps also in the linked video although I haven't finished it yet). Trust me when I say that the man has a legitimate claim to discuss the topics on which he tends to focus.
