If you are happy with a given template and only want to make minor modifications (i.e. coloring, logos,...) it should still be a good choice. But the same goes also for e.g. Wordpress.
first off, given the context of having kept someone 22 years this sounds ridiculous.

If they kept someone 2.2 years and then didn't compensate you could argue incentives to keep but after a certain amount of years it seems like there isn't any difference between what they actually are doing and how they would behave with incentive not to let you go.

Aside from that there could be ways to structure compensations, for example a scheme where you get less compensation per year for short time, more compensation per year for longer time might make them want to let you go and cut their losses once they determine you were innocent.
This also leads to extreme bloat in a lot of cases, but is cheaper to build (not necessarily maintain), and always gets chosen.
Impulse bought a Datarover from eBay a few years ago. The device itself is an ugly grey box, but Magic Cap is a delight. In fact, if the backlight hadn’t have died I’d still be using it as a landline phone.

Full of delight, something that modern OSes are sorely missing.

Little touches like being able to drop a little animated worm in the hallway and watch it crawl about - and it still being there when you come back later.

It’s a real shame that a decade ago, when incumbent phone makers were scrambling around trying to find a response to iOS, no one dusted it off and updated it for the modern world. Would have been such a contrast to the standard grid of boring icons.

Used proxmox in its earliest iterations within a startup and found it fantastic.

Recently I tried it again when attempting to install Untangle on a system with EFI. Untangle didn’t support EFI so I needed to virtualize it.

I found it too difficult to get software network adapters to work with different physical network cards.

Switched over to VMware ESXi and had vswitch configured within minutes.

YMMV and I’d still recommend Proxmox for simple virtualization projects.
The Case for Portland-to-Vancouver High-Speed Rail
You could do:

Americans Work More Than Ever, and More Than Anyone Else Thanks to Internet
This is strongly overstating the case:

The UK right to silence is pretty well summarised in the modern wording of the police caution: "You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in court. Anything you do say may be given in evidence."

Staying silent is not obstruction of justice or contempt of court. No one is ever required to respond to questioning. But it might lose you credibility in court of you produce an alibi or other defence at trial that you didn't mention during questioning.

The only exception is passwords and encryption keys, which have to be supplied if a court order is obtained and aren't considered testimony.
This video has some great advice, also his speaking skills are excellent, this is even enjoyable to watch as an entertainment piece.
It's a bit more nuanced than that.

Obviously we can't "take the fifth" since we don't share the US constitution, but we do have a right to silence when you're the defendant in typical criminal proceedings and you can't be held in contempt for that silence. However there is no right to silence for example during investigations by the Serious Fraud Office, or when requiring disclosure of encryption keys under RIPA. However in the case of a SFO investigation, if they then want to charge you criminally, you have the right to silence and they can't use evidence you've been compelled to give previously. The RIPA stuff is bullshit and is widely considered overreach but the powers that be really don't want to change it for obvious reasons.

In criminal proceedings, you have a right to silence - however in limited, defined situations, adverse inferences can be drawn from that silence. Adverse influences can't be drawn until you've had the opportunity to seek legal advice, so the advice to shut up and ask for a lawyer still stands.

The cases where adverse influences can be drawn are things like refusing to answer why you were in a particular place at the time of arrest and for example only coming up with an answer days later or even at court. Your lawyer will of course advise you what you need to answer.

That said, irrespective of what the law says and how the judge directs the jury, nothing can stop them drawing adverse influences from whatever they want to draw adverse influences from. So it's possibly worth considering that when deciding to remain silent.

A Brief History of HadoopDB and Large-Scale Data Processing Systems
The four recommendations contained within the report are a great starting point but it can be expected that lobbying from various industry players will result in only cosmetic change. Practically, the only solution is a cause of action (beyond false advertising) relating to claimed coverage that cannot be disclaimed and can be litigated by private citizens individually and collectively. Once the lawsuits start piling up, honesty in coverage reporting will start to prevail.
See, the thing is, if you think for a minute about the size of the boxes that show up at your home, and the amount of hazard experienced by the delivery person handing them off to you, it's hard to form any opinion of this which doesn't blame the workers.

I get that there are other things happening in a warehouse, and that it's not your typical environment, especially considering sheer volume and scale, but knowing that everything in play is reducible to a cardboard box that your mom can lift and carry from the front door to the living room, it's hard to summon sympathy.

I suppose I should have some kind of appreciation for how scale works against efficiency, and so too, safety, so maybe the demand for speed plays a role, and upper echelon nabobs thus belong in the line of fire as well. I have at least one friend who worked in an Amazon warehouse, and he said the stress is real. The pressure to perform, to deliver numbers attached to worker productivity tracking devices is constant and merciless.

One last layer to this onion, organized crime. Staten Island is as notorious as any New York borough for the usual infestation of insidious high stakes blue collar crime, organized by low key bosses operating behind the scenes. Don't discount this possibility. The warehouse is an alternative opportunistic point of insertion, perfect for escalation beyond low level theft at the front door, after delivery.

What would organized crime have to do with workplace accidents? There are a variety of angles, but if the overall rate seems unnatural, it may be a clue that the activity is somehow malicous.

Show HN: Egonotifier – be warned when your GitHub repositories gain popularity
Hey HN! As a maintainer of a repository with a decent amount of stars [1], there are some important moments I want to celebrate:
- When my repository reaches 1000 stars, for example
- When it reaches 500 forks.
Stuff like that. Achievements that I can share with the community on Twitter, for instance. But I keep forgetting to check the number of stars and forks of my own repositories.

Open source developers don't have many ways to be recognized for their work. One of these marks of recognition is the number of stars of their repositories. It’s a vanity metric, yes, definitely – but it’s somehow important to represent if this hard work has an impact or not.

This is why I’ve built a simple system to monitor repositories on GitHub and warn me by email when my repositories reach certain milestones [2]. After a few weeks of dog fooding my own system, I think it’s ready for public use. It’s free, there is no tracking whatsoever and I just hope other GitHub users will find it useful.

Oh, and it’s open source and released as MIT.

The Reddit website is working perfectly fine for my purposes. The only thing I'm bothered with are the annoying popups suggesting to try their app.

Also if Reddit is slower than HN, that's probably because they don't care (law of diminishing returns ftw) and I'm sure they'd rather drive people to their mobile app instead. All of this isn't the fault of the web technologies used and neglect can't be solved by AMP.

AMP puts websites under Google's control and nobody asked for it, being shoved down on people's throats due to an imaginary problem.

I can’t see how plea deals are anything other than an an in humane way to make the prosecutors look successful while also giving the private prison complex a boost.

You know, they’re doing you a ‘favour’ by avoiding the trial so long as you accept guilt.
In one of my stints of jury service, the accused had heavily exercised his right to silence over a lengthy period. At the subsequent trial the judge made a point of instructing the jury we must infer nothing at all from his silence and judge solely on the facts of the case, as presented in court.

I do not know what edge cases the addition of "But, it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in court." was meant to protect against, and how, but it is absolutely nowhere near obstruction of justice or contempt of court.

Here's What Happens When You Decide to Sell Your Startup
They might not pay it out of the pocket, but they may pay with their jobs one way or another:

Elected judges and prosecutors may lose elections when the electorate hears they shell out huge compensations, especially to people the electorate is not really convinced are innocent (because unlike the judges, who were at the trial obviously, the electorate learned only a tiny fraction of information about a case from more or less reliable media sources at best, and outright rumors and gossip at worst).

Appointed judges are still appointed by somebody, and that somebody is a (group of) politician(s). These politicians have the same issues as the elected judges and prosecutors, and may avoid this (or even retaliate) by not appointing judges (to higher circuits) that are perceived to be risky in this regard, effectively killing the careers of these judges. So if you want to become an appointed judge, you still better pay close attention to the political scene and play ball.

Yeah, it is based on throwing promises that are not resolved. (which is weird but kind of makes sense)

They have been reluctant to discuss the details there, I guess it's because the details might change before the production release so they don't want to spell the actual inner workings out just yet.
Okay, but it’s not quite true that ‘nobody’s standard of living would change.’

Cartels would be free to cross the border and operate in the U.S. (no way the U.S. could handle a sudden spike in 100,000+ Member sophisticated criminal operations), so their quality of life would increase.

The lower class in the U.S. would have even more wage competition, so theirs might decrease, etc.
Specifying the max number of concurrent lambda execution has been possible for years - it's called reserved concurrency.

Now, can you argue for the idea that using SecuROM is comparable to adopting an industry standard for video transmission

No, you can't, because the presence of SecuROM is completely orthogonal to the game features that customers are willing to pay for. This is a feature the publisher insisted on, not something the customer asked for.

Moreover, mitigations for the scenario you suggest do exist: you can buy convertors, even high-quality upscalers to convert 70s-era video signals to HDMI signals a modern TV can accept. "Convertors" that mitigate the damage of SecuROM are illegal, again because the publishers insisted on that.
An excellent find.

> I do not know what edge cases the addition of "But, it may harm your defence if you do not mention when questioned something which you later rely on in court." was meant to protect against

Technically this is true. If you make a statement to the police, then that statement can be used as evidence at trial (both against you and in your defence). If you don’t make a statement, then the only way to get your testimony in front of the jury (should that be necessary), is to take the stand, where you will be subjected to cross examination. A process where you (probably not a lawyer) will have to argue with a lawyer who will be doing their best to make you trip over every single thing you say, in front of a jury, for a number of hours.

So while it does potentially have a benefit, it’s still always a bad idea, because you’ll want to see the discovery before you say anything at all.
I found that a very nice observation! I've been struggling with stress lately and I feel like I'm surrounded by a culture where being busy is valued a lot, and people boast about how they stayed up very long to finish something, and it feels like that is a behavior that is reinforced.

I really like tackling things on my own time, and I feel this "tunnelling" a lot and I don't like it at all. Sometimes it can be nice, but I feel like due to stress I tunnel too much.

And I noticed that after being stressed for a while (weeks/months) it is very hard to come back and enjoy idleness. I think this is a problem in cultures with a "busy" work ethic.
