My point was to elaborate on how some other user might feel that Facebook represent a big brother type actor.

However, you have suggested that there is or should be no privacy when doing development, but I'll remind you that not all devs work in large corporate environments and even when they do, they might reasonably expect to be watched only by their employer. It is frankly not 100% clear that Facebook will never have access to telemetry as a result of "improving" this set of plugins. They certainly did not suggest as much.

In my opinion, there is a dramatic difference between what my employer may or may not do to track me and what a 3rd party social media company may or may not do to track my development practices as a result of using a plugin.

While semantically I may have overstated that Facebook "sells" data, they unquestionably considered doing so between 2012 and 2014 despite promises made to the contrary. They also unquestionably shared data with other large data aggregators. Even if USD did not change hands I think we can be fairly certain that Facebook bartered in user data.

$1M net worth in many areas is effectively someone who bought a house 40 years ago and paid off the mortgage. A million bucks ain't what it used to be.
For what it's worth, I'll share my counter-anecdote.

I've never once had a license problem with Omnigraffle and I've been a paying customer for 10+ years.
There’s some very deep rabbit holes you can dive into, if you want to be 100% sure your vegan-burger never had any contact with any animal products.

Essentially, restaurants would need a completely separate kitchen to prepare the vegan meals in, since any surface or utensil also used for regular food could have traces of animal product on it.

So if you’re an orthodox veganist, you might as well give up on eating out at places that serve regular food.
I pray that you generated that with a perl script. ;)
Gay guy here in San Antonio who has lived in the Bay Area, thought I would chime in with my perspective since you mentioned the city. There is definitely more gay culture in SF/large coastal cities, but I don't think it's as desolate as one may think.

There are for sure way fewer bars, but the few that are here are always packed on weekends. The scene is also less centralized, so I don't think I meet as many LGBTQ people randomly as I would in say SF.

On the other hand, I would say that a good percentage of my friends are LGBTQ. I also my met my husband here, gone to our Pride events many times, have seen a bunch of live drag, and generally feel comfortable being out.

If someone's thinking of moving to a smaller city and the perceived lack of gay culture was the only thing holding them back, I would say just go for it.
You continue to be concerned with whether or not they should pay more taxes, which is completely and totally irrelevant. Whether or not you consider yourself a stakeholder in some hypothetical lie which you've mind-read into this situation is totally irrelevant.

You've dodged my very direct question so I will put it to you again. What is the mechanism by which we, the public, should judge a piece of writing to be able to determine whether it is straight journalism or political activism? Where is the line? That is the only question that matters. This is a question of literary analysis of a piece of writing, not a fact check.
I find it interesting that there is so much focus on Elon Musk polluting the view, when he's really only connected to a small portion of what's already up there and what's currently already on the way.
I wrote about this back in October 2017, it talks about setting up mailcow. I think it's far simpler than this article.

My employer might track me, but how does that mitigate my concerns that a 3rd party data aggregator like Facebook might track me as well as a result of installing a closed source plugin that they "improved".
There is only 1 solutions for climate change and 1 that can slow it down fast enuff to give us the time to possible get the only solution to work. Onley Nuclear reactors is clean enuff to slow down the the co2 released in to the atmosphere. 4gram co2/kWh/0.05$ it produces sheep enuff electricity to use carbon catcher and convert energy of co2 to something else. 200gram co2 would set the electricity prices at 0.25$/kWh to customers and we are soon out of drinking water in the world's so 50% on co2 and 50% convert salt water to fresh water will set the electricity price at ~0.45$/kWh. That will buy us time to hopefully figure out fusion before 2080. No one knows if its even possible that we can control that kind of energy to produce electricity for civil use. To just fill the electricity demand the world would need 50 new reactors every week untill 2035 to avoid a global energy crisis, and we would still need fusion before 2080 to start the amount of co2 to go back to as it was in the 1980s before 2200. Renewable energy will never even make a visual mark on a energy production of zero co2 graf and less of one, on the negative co2 graf. Renewable will be a good alternative on some very geografical optimal places that's it. Alot of people this day seems to forget that the E in the formula E=mc2 stands for Energy=everything(mass) both are the same and lay the ground for 1916 general relativity theory. Better known as the law of physics or easier, reality... just run the numbers, GRT doesn't care about money, politics or magic... it's simply predict what work and don't with the same certainty as it predict the time and date for the next solar eclipse.
One positive result from Stadia can already be observed. More developers are starting to implement Vulkan renderer in their games and custom engines (common engines all have Vulkan renderer for a while already). And not only that, they finally are starting seeing Vulkan as the real common API:

Example: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCqut9tr6iA

I suppose they mean translation from Vulkan to Metal with MoltenVK when they mention "Mac support". But that line of thinking is going to become more and more widespread now, thanks to Google throwing their weight behind Vulkan for Stadia.

Optimistically, pressure on MS, Sony and Apple will increase to the point where they'll support Vulkan on their walled gardens that now enforce DX, GNM and Metal lock-ins, because developers will demand it. And even if they'll resist, projects like MoltenVK and gfx-rs will help break their lock-in despite such resistance. gfx-rs would need to add Vulkan to GNM translation though.

So while I'm not using Stadia due to its idea being basically DRM on steroids, the positive effects from it also exist.
Can you rephrase this in terms of a positive claim about reality which is rigorous enough to be falsifiable? I'll falsify it for you.

We are bullshitting about the incidence of criminality among the wealthy out of some crabs-pulling-down-crabs-leaving-the-bucket class warfare. This is not instrumentally useful on HN; many HNers will find themselves wealthy, some sooner and some later, and others should not self-limit on their chances of ending up there by adopting discourses which suggest that wealth is necessarily stolen.
If it’s mostly made out of silicon and metals, it is not much different from natural rocks, just at a lower level of entropy. If the energy source is renewable and the supply chain sustainable, it is not that bad. Like clay tea cups in Asia, disposable isn’t always bad.
I'd recommend getting in touch through their Github page, where the project is hosted and developed. Open an issue or submit your first pull request.
Those are good examples, thank you. I've seen Stratechery and Exponent mentioned on HN quite a few times. Curious, do you care if this analysis is "correct," or are you happy to get the newsletter even if his is just an opinion that will potentially help you think about a topic in a new way?
But that's not at all how "supervised learning" works. You would do something like have a thousand sanded pieces of wood and columns of attributes of the sanding parameters that were used, and have a human label the wood pieces that meet the spec. Then you solve for the parameters that were likely to generate those acceptable results. ML is brute force compared with the heuristics that human learning can apply. And ML never* gives you results that can be generalized with simple rules.

Right-- but often an NPC is merely scenery or traffic, in the sense that their behavior does not compete with your interests. What I found interesting about the football example is that the random strategy of the NPC-oach both suggested a deeper intelligence AND proved to be an apparently effective opponent.

Beyond reinforcing our tendency to project, as you say, a personal history on random behavior, it also highlights what a few other people have commented: that in many non-cooperative situations a committed random strategy is extremely effective, and perhaps more effective than a biased, seemingly "rational" strategy. (For another example, I believe Henrich's "The Secret Of Our Success" discusses the possible adaptive benefits of divination as a generator for random strategies among early societies.)

Mozilla stated previously that if the bypassing was "abused" (such as by ISPs), they'd effectively just ignore it (paraphrasing) and continue to use DoH anyways.
The title was basically clickbait.

It reflects how I encountered the issue, but the investigation doesn't have much of that, because I was starting from a point where I suddenly had a slow and fast algorithm (the actual scenario was more complicated than shown).

The investigation doesn't have much to do with clang-format because I'm just trying to see why a raw loop is faster, and ultimately has nothing to do with "raw" vs "std" at all, really. Only when I understood that includes and include order matter was I able to map it back to a header order swap made by clang-format.

> This part lost me because I can't see how you can use std::transform (which is in <algorithm>) without hitting this flaw.

No, two ways.

You can get the fast performance with std::transform if you happen to include <ctype.h> before <algorithm>. The order matters.

Similarly, you can get the slow performance with a raw loop if you happen to include <algorithm> before <ctype.h> in the file for the raw loop.

In fact, I'd say that the raw loop and std::transform will have the same performance almost all the time. If they are in the same file, they will have the same performance. If they are in a C++ file, you are almost certainly including some C++ header that triggers the issue. Only in special cases, like a coding convention that separates C and C++ headers with whitespace with C first (clang-format doesn't sort headers separated by whitespace) are you likely to come into it "natively".

Even if you do, it's absolutely no fault of std::transform or <algorithm> - it's a weird effect of interaction between C, C++ and OS headers, nothing inherent to the C++ algorithms.
The analysis is based on Emsi’s Talent Attraction Index, which is comprised of six key metrics: job growth, skilled job growth, net migration, annual openings for skilled workers (per capita), educational attainment growth (based on adults with associate degrees and above), and a broad measure of regional competitiveness.

All of these (except the last, which is an ambiguous indicator) are based on flows, not stocks. Beyond that,
as far as the reason the report names the top big county in the country as Jacksonville's...

Duval County is the heart of the Jacksonville metro, a rising economic powerhouse that is consistently attracting new residents and growing its talent base. Its population increased 7% from 2014 to 2018. Jobs were up 11% over the same time, nearly twice the national rate.

Notably, the largest industries in Duval County are restaurants and hospitals—the kind of industries that exist everywhere, and which do not usually involve the big manufacturing centers we tend to think of as job drivers. But over the past two years, the presence of both Wayfair and Amazon distribution centers has spurred 242% growth in the electronic shopping industry, an addition of over 5,000 more jobs than expected given national trends.

I'd love to see a report that analyzed trends around changes in talent (the "Creative Class" jobs that Richard Florida identified back in the day), because I'd love to get more bang for buck than I do in one of the Superstar Cities. But this report is mis-advertised. Show me surprising or up-and-coming places where most people have college degrees or advanced degrees from good schools, cultural events, and the potential for high wages doing interesting work.
It seems to be the latter. In fact, the trick (should I say, fraud?) is so common that they were even several articles about it in the press over the past two or three years. Even the famous x.ai had (and I guess still has) humans doing the work.

Right? Recommenders are almost counter productive for me in most cases. I want a recommender to remain broad, not give me increasingly niche recommendations a la youtube. About the only halfway decent recommender system I've interacted with is the various forms of curated lists on Spotify. They seem to actually take a decent stab at it with related but sufficiently different and interesting content.

For all Facebook knows about me they've always been exceptionally bad at advertising to me, which is remarkable considering what they've got. Google is only very marginally better. Actually, now that I think about it, Amazon's 'customer's also bought' is also pretty bad at the recommendation itself since it not uncommonly recommends incompatible things! ...but it does often succeed at getting me to think more about what else I might need and sometimes leads me to buying other things. At least it's not always recommending the same thing, but rather related things, which is probably a much better way to advertise.
Poetry presupposes that insight is important and I don't think this value has survived the internet. It's generational. Summing up something complex in a pithy statement cuts off discussion, and with it, the narcissistic supply that people call empathy these days.

Auden was a fey sentimentalist, and of poets whose work is relevant today, the other ones mentioned in the article (Larkin, Frost, and I'd add, Blake) should be the first stop.
How is driving around everywhere human scale? The rest I agree with.
I didn't care about latency on old tile based games, but now that everything is 3D with smooth scrolling and animations the latency makes a difference.
This has been my go to for about a year now. I have set up a couple templates that I use as blank pages. I keep four notebooks: one for each my day job, my side projects, house renovations and one for notes at conferences or when taking a course.

I used to carry at least two or three different note/sketchbooks and a small collection of pens. Now, just the iPad Pro and pencil.
I’ve seen emails marked as suspicious/phishing attempt between two GSuite domains owned by the same company.
Don't live in San Fran then? Florida has prettier beaches and nicer people. I grew up in Florida, traveled the country in my 20s, and came back to Florida last year. Plenty of social gatherings and people who want to make friends here. The Space Coast (aka NASA county) is packed with engineers for obvious reasons. Colorado was the hardest place to make friends honestly... but the scenery in Colorado... you don't need people.

Anyways, there's more to life than San Fran and video games. To me, you're complaining about the smell when you live in a dumpster. San fran is the dumpster of humanity. I feel bad that you feel disconnected from humanity, because I know what that's like. Whether or not you want to believe me, I'm speaking from personal experience derived from the last 10 years, Cali sucks if you want to be a social, well rounded human being. I highly recommend changing your environment.

Oh, and the food is better in Florida too. Get a Cuban sub from the Tampa Bay area. Happy hour is always from 10am to 9am daily. Alligator tastes better than you think. Only eat Latin food in the small mom and pop places in the bad parts of town. Literally, the best ever and well worth the risk of getting shot in a gang related drive by. Seafood... you don't like seafood? You'll like Florida seafood.

Then there's the beach. I mean... do I need to get into why?

Am I going to get downvoted, sure. Florida man don't care.
Nope, I just typed the above off-the-cuff. I could tweet storm it. Would that be useful?
Just to be clear, 1600 of my coworkers are journalists, so I'm pretty confident in my support for journalists creds. Assange is not a journalist. Journalists don't encourage sources to break into classified systems and absolutely don't help them with it. When journalists get a stack of classified military docs, they don't indiscriminately release them to the public, they negotiate with the WH/DOD to avoid jeopardizing national security, weigh the public interest, and remove names to avoid putting people's lives at risk. See https://www.nytimes.com/2010/07/26/world/26editors-note.html.... If you visited a newsroom, you might be surprised to find out that the overwhelming majority of journalists don't support Assange and his "I'm a journalist" defense.
Most JRPGs would fit the bill, especially the turn-based combat ones.
Personal recommendation systems all have tradeoffs. It's just the nature of curation as an intangible endeavor. You can love "Scarface", "Heat" and "LA Confidential" but still find "Casino" boring ;)

More on such tradeoffs in a recent case study from DeepMind on Google Play Store app recommendations. Even they acknowledge the same techniques that surface 30% cost efficiencies in data center cooling, may not be completely applicable to "taste"

This is basically the DoH versus DoT argument.

I'd prefer DNS-over-TLS myself but apparently DNS-over-HTTPS has more backing and is "winning".

One big advantage that is argued is that DoH is much harder to block.
Yea, like eating a salad and a Big Mac are the same class of food as well. Feels so weird since it's so obvious. A salad and a Big Mac. They're both food, thus they are both equally nutritious.

I’d rather earn $400K for several years, live as cheaply as possible, and when I start to feel fatigued, then switch to one of these slower companies in the Midwest. By that time, your portfolio is decent strong and you’re already set for retirement.

Starting your career in the Midwest at their typical salary levels and given the kinds of problems many of these companies or their IT departments are solving is a very short sighted approach. I say that having been there.

I pivoted my career. My first 6 months I had more impact and learned way more than in working 4 years in the Midwest.
I wish more people would make me feel young here :-)
I specifically addressed profitability and why boring would lead to profitability in my original argument.

Publishers, in this context meant the people who are responsible for signing off on the funding of movies.
You can set up a DoH server today. You can then configure Firefox to use that server by configuring it as a "custom provider" (Chrome is even simpler, and never defaulted you to an alternate DNS server to begin with).
Got it, I didn't understand you were talking about HN titles, rather than the blog post title.

I didn't submit it to HN so I can't comment on the title choice, other than say it at least reflects the literal title of the page which I guess would be the default when submitting.

I tend to outsource my comments to HN, since my blog is a github pages static site and introducing comments without tracking and ads is a pain, but I definitely don't choose my post titles to satisfy HN rules.
A DHCP option, e.g., "DoH server", could be added to the DHCP spec to tell clients which DoH servers to use (just like happens now with "regular DNS").
> Just FYI, that aphorism does not apply in this case.

But it just might apply in this [B]ase. /s
This problem has nothing to do with DoH; it only seems that way because DoH makes it clear that you lack this control and that systems that tried to exert this control using DNS were hacks to begin with.
People you hire on MTurk don't generally work in the US, and have a small fraction of the carbon footprint of an average American.
I'm curious: what's the use case for this?

Naïvely, it looks like a platform for a virus-like application.

Reading the GitHub issues and PRs, it looks like a procedural competitor for Ansible (which is declarative).
More on this:

szolga = servant

+ l = verb-forming suffix [1]

+ tat = causative suffix [2]

+ ás = gerund-forming suffix, makes a verbal noun from a verb [3]

+ ai = marker for plural possession [4]

+ ért = causal-final suffix, denotes the reason for the action [5]

These suffixes are morphemes you can (with some simple rules) just add to words to achieve the corresponding change in meaning. In CS terms, they're functions that take the input word and make a new one. Each one of the above, used somewhere else:

winter -> to spend the winter: tél + l -> telel

to read -> to make them read: olvas + tat -> olvastat

to read -> the reading: olvas + ás -> olvasás

house -> his houses: ház + ai -> házai

house -> because of, affecting the house: ház + ért -> házért

A chromecast and a PS4 controller purchased separately today would be closer to half that much.
PHX, and more specifically Scottsdale and Tempe, definitely has been having a jobs/IT boom. And I'd say its that heat that has kept the cost of living relatively mild (as well as the sheer amount of buildable land in and around the city).
You can have advertising without "privacy issues" and "massive surveillance". I would say that google does a much better job of it than Facebook.

Another option would be to have voluntary donations, like wikipedia.

I'm not going to pay $10/month for a curated new feed which I can do myself for free, and probably do a better job of it.
Maybe you don't view video games as being "as nutritious" as your personal preferred forms of entertainment, but that doesn't make those preferences universal. I've brought handheld gaming devices on virtually every trip I've made in the past decade, whether for work or pleasure, and I doubt I'm an outlier.
The whole point of this feature is to ensure DNS filtering keeps working. Since DNS filtering already conflicts with DNSSEC, what does it matter that one of Firefox's mechanisms for signaling that you want DNS filtering also conflicts with DNSSEC?
