BTW, I notice that you also have an interest in printing. Don't know if you've ever taken a class in it, but I did (semester-long "Introduction to Printmaking" at a local art school at night) and it was an amazing experience. I was way outclassed by everyone else who knew at least how to draw, paint, etc, but I still had a lot of fun learning about various printing techniques, types of paper, etc.

Why the web font though? I would have liked to read your article in a standard font already built into my system. Something that I'm used to reading in, ex. Helvetica, Arial, Georgia, etc. Instead, I get this slightly-off font that isn't that widely used, and have to switch to Reader mode to get a nicer built-in font.
I feel there are rising tensions in China between their pseudo-free market and their apparent attempts at controlling and micro-managing the lives of their people. It would seem the rise of their consumer economy would also give rise to a demand for more freedom on a day to day basis to allow for innovation. It's interesting to see China going simultaneously in both contradicting directions.

The title sounds intentionally provocative -- "face scanned" appears to be just "have their photo taken". I can't find a single source that suggests anything more than that.

Which isn't much different from having your photo taken for your driver's license, passport, or at the border, all of which the US does.

Burner phones are mostly associated with criminal activity, so tying phones to identities feels like a legitimate function -- which many countries do. And if criminals are trying to register phones through identity theft, this seems like it would be an additional protection.

If you're concerned with privacy, that's what encrypted communications are for, and if you don't want to be tracked by radio, then don't take any phone with you.

>Scenes like this are commonplace

What's your basis for saying that they're commonplace? One silly tweet doesn't really show anything.
Completely agree. Doesn't even matter what the page says, the scrolling is so bad I left as quickly as I could.
> If it's not, then why do we allow open carry/concealed carry permits in public spaces?

It's often not allowed to carry in places like schools (varies depending on district or state). However, many pro-gun supporters make the argument that CC supposedly makes public spaces safer because active shooters don't really need a license to murder people anyway, so anyone carrying during a situation has more defense (just stating the argument, not certifying it's correctness). But I'm interested in hearing how often it's the case that some licensed idiot badly secures their weapon in a public space leading to an active shooter situation (and for this reason I definitely wouldn't trust students to CC. But I'm also not in favor of clear backpacks, as that similarly feels like a case of "solving the wrong problem").

I'm from Quebec, there's no laws that surround specifically software engineer. There's some for engineers in general, but nothing surrounding software development. The title truly doesn't means anything for us as long as no laws are passed, which is why I don't pay for it either.
If you're not happy maybe re look into why. Is it someone on your team, the whole team, or just not what you expected at all? If you still enjoy what you do then you know you're not the problem. Is your team dry, you feel as if you are doing all the work?

Speaking for myself, you have indeed failed me. Before I read your comment, I had now idea that PIA offered "verifiable transparency". I still do not know what you mean by that phrase and how I as a mere user can even begin to verify your transparency.

I did use PIA for the trust, I lost that trust and I will therefore stop using PIA.
After reading that article, I have got to say that it's so ironic that many of these SV founders are mad that Latka is selling their company data. One actually said when I provided that information for the podcast, "I didn't intend for that data to be sold."

Latka's argument is that he is clear in the podcast and many other places that is what he does.

It sounds like he is playing startup founders with their own game. Provide a service that the founder/company wants for free or little cost. Then turn around and sell their data to 3rd parties.

I would be willing to bet that is the business model of many of the companies that have appeared on the podcast and are mad at having their data packaged and sold.

And Latka's response is the same as all the founders of those types of companies.

"It's in the fine print, bro!"
That case is cited in the link I included, and I even called out the functional clause? I don't see what else you're trying to say? Unless the intent is that 3D scans and recipes are not alike in copyright failing, in which case all I can say is that I don't see how a point cloud is any different a collection of factual relations (points) and a result (3D object)...
Startups are just one small category of business: the sort which must grow at 6% per week or else they will fail.

The U.S. does great with these “bet the farm” business models because most of them can fail, and the few that succeed can pay off the capital class handsomely.

Personally, I would rather live in a world where all of my most talented friends can start lifestyle businesses that allow them to do their best work, and be healthy.

The success of startups has some nice macro effects on GDP, but does not solve the problem of labor exploitation that, for me, is just as important a goal of entrepreneurship as making a windfall for the capital class.
not sure that means it generalizes to all countries or types of business
Not sure why you're responding to me specifically, but I agree with your general premise, but disagree with your specific characterization.

The general criticisms here are warranted and I think are constructive enough that they'd be beneficial to these founders and others seeking to do something similar.
I read a book a while back, and it is even more relavaent today.

The Culture of Fear - Barry Glassner

https://www.amazon.com/Culture-Fear-Americans-Minorities-Mic...
The issue isn’t green energy production and resale, but double counting of credits. Multiple players claiming “green energy” (leaving out whether it’s production or consumption), while none take responsibility for the fossil fuels.

Energy is fungible, meaning they only sell the credits and use the green power internally. Now suddenly they use originally “green” power, never mind that the credits have been sold and someone else is doing the same.

Google “Norway green energy” to get a feel for what it looks like in the media.

There is no need for them to sell many of those credits, as evidenced by the fact that they don’t even transfer much of that power. Don’t forget that they lower that penalty by increasing supply. If they went off the market, other, domestic players would get more money for their own production. And Norwegians are lulled into a false sense of green compliance, thereby being less incentivised to root for reduction of fossil fuel consumption.

It’s a great example for the expression “having your cake and eating it, too.” If you ever need to explain that one :)
If people want to come live there you can either build homes for them or they will outbid existing inhabitants, housing prices will shoot up and less wealthy people will have to move out.

The words weather and whether are only rarely mixed up naturally, in contrast to apostrophes.

And even if they were, why not? The pronunciations have already merged, the only reason they're still distinct is because of the immense historical legacy English is carrying around. In Dutch, a sister of English, they're both written "weer".
The person who makes the argument has a responsibility to show citations.

And your citation were about hypothetical arguments, and went to show more of my point. All throughout the article it speaks about the government’s arguments being “defective” and still doesn’t show a single example where a vertically integrated minority player was called a “monopolist” nor where government imposed remedies or sanctions were implied.

In fact, Atari vs. Nintendo affirmed that Atari did in fact violate Nintendo’s copyright when it tried to circumvent Nintendo’s control over its platform.

So in fact, you still haven’t come up with a single precedent where Apple could be considered a “monopolist” on its own platform or where they are violating “antitrust”.
Ask HN: Website that assigns free reading content from web based on preferences?
I saw the read15minsaday.com website that was suggested here a couple days ago.

I like it a lot, however, it would be even better if there was one that provided reading materials based on user-preferences. So one doesn't have to decide what to read, instead, they just read something interesting and engaging.

I'm wondering if such a website exists?

As someone who started doing UI in the late 90s I totally agree.

AFAIK Flutter and SwiftUI are bringing those web ideas into mobile/desktop dev.

AFAIK there is still nothing similar in the C++ world.
When I use products for business I expect some level of professionalism. It's way too easy to get hung out to dry with a critical piece of infrastructure and a dead company behind it. What they've done here with the vaporware and vanity posts is a classic misstep. It's not product or customer centered, the two things you absolutely must be to succeed in the enterprise world.
But the US population does opt in, at least to the degree that ignoring social pressure allows someone to say no.

Of course its difficult to go around "off the grid"; most of these services became big precisely because they make aspects of life easier -- ergo not using them means life is more difficult. But it is feasible to refuse adding data to them without actively violating the law, which is the point of concern.

Cleaning the Glass | Web Developer | Remote | Part-Time/Contract | https://cleaningtheglass.com/stats/

When I left my position as VP of Basketball Strategy for the Philadelphia 76ers, I wanted to bring what I had learned to a wider audience. So I started Cleaning the Glass.

Cleaning the Glass features advanced basketball stats that are hard to find elsewhere, more accurate and easier to use than on other sites.

Right now it's just me doing the development. I'm aiming to scale that up, starting by finding someone to help the development process on a part-time, remote basis.

Experience with frontend development, Python, Django, and SQL all helps.

>> crop yields remain constant

> some, not all...

Good that you made this correction. In 1960 the average yield for tomatoes was 50 ton/ha or less in the area where I am from. [1]

In 2019, the yield was 100 ton/ha, but in the most optimal areas you get 140 ton/ha. If you use nets you get 250 tons/ha.

>> How is it that science and technology move forward but crop yields remain constant?

This is bordering on conspiracy theory; I have experience in tech in agriculture and the progress the last 50 years is nothing short of a humanitarian miracle. The miracle is far from complete though.

For me, this is quite difficult. One thing you could look for is their response to any hint that they were incorrect or ignorant on something. Good people will become curious and drill down, hoping to discover something new. Bad people will become defensive or stonewall.

More importantly, though, you should have a plan for gracefully leaving the company within the first month or six, should you discover that your boss is a bully. Don't put yourself in the position of being "stuck" financially (or in other ways).
> "Neighborhood groups in Seattle have criticized new micro apartment SRO units, arguing that they "harmed community character and provided ... inhumane living conditions; due to these concerns, the city passed regulations that outlawed micro apartment/SRO construction."

Annoying. I lived in a SRO (I just called it a studio apartment with a shared bathroom) for 3.5 years that was run by a co-op apartment building. This was in Seattle. Having a shared bathroom was an annoyance (shared between 4 men - never more than a sentence said to two of them) but I was more than happy to put up with it versus having to deal with roommates. It was also cheaper than having roommates in a variety of houses that I looked at. I had more space than all those rooms for rent I looked at. I often wish I could've kept that kind of housing when I moved to the bay area because everything here is so outlandishly expensive just to get your own bit of space and that housing was so cheap for me.
It may be declarative, but is it reactive?

Edit: it may not sound that way but I swear I was honestly just asking a question. :)
