Sounds like a good theory, until you think about animals like parrots and turtles. Both of those have lifespans that are about as long as that of humans, and no doubt they are very intelligent (esp. pronounced with parrots), but not smart enough to be able to support your hypothesis.

I must confess I have probably spent more time trying out blogging software than actually blogging. Reading that OP has his entries as HTML has given me food for thought. I am using Hugo but not being a front end developer I battled (most probably due to my lack of knowledge, time and application) so much to get my theme simple that I find myself hesitant to blog again. Moral of the story use what you understand.

More and more I'm of the opinion that I don't want to use a library that's not included in the core product. I've had way too many dependencies become end-of-life before my application was EOL, and I ended up having to fundamentally change my application, putting in hours of work just to keep things the same, or rebuild a feature. I appreciate Rails for all the built-in stuff it provides but anything outside of that, as time goes on you're getting more and more likely to end support. Paperclip hit me hard, and my Rails apps are stuck on an unsupported library because it's not worth the time or effort to migrate to ActiveStorage. God help me if Devise is deprecated.

That's the reason I've tried to stay away from the current Javascript madness. All of modern Javascript is built on hundreds of NPM packages that will disappear in two or three years.

I certainly will never use any language or framework in production if the main feature is "nothing is included, bring your own core features" like Flask or Express unless I'm committed to building those not-included core features myself (which I probably won't). Because if I'm bringing in someone else's package, even something that's well supported by a great and developer-friendly company like Thoughtbot, that package will likely EOL before my app does. Yes I'm still absolutely bitter about Paperclip being deprecated.
People don't trust a random pipe that serves up free water literally because of the business model of selling a basic commodity like water.

"Ewww look at that dirty TAP water ugh, get some beautiful island fresh water in this bottle!" Of course, it's the same water anyway, but now someone has made money off it.

Capitalism (and since saying that word makes people so mad, let's say "capital seeking behavior" instead) is so hilariously perverse, we've now got advertisement supported tap water, because we advertised tap water v1.0 into obsolescence. And then realized tap water v2.0 (bottled water) actually had unintended consequences (plastic). So THIS time it'll work! Tap Water v3.0!
How I Raised My $11.5M Venture Capital Fund
That is why I fell in love with programming. So many smart people willing to spend time and effort on explaining me simple things. I have tried to give back by tutoring people as much as I can. The technology community is amazing.
Thanks, that's amazing, and depressing (for me).
The Problem of Long-Term Offline Data Storage for Consumers
I never argued that climate change isn't real or that nothing should be done about. My point was simply that when people behave in a hypocritical manner, they tend to lose all credibility even when they're right, and they hurt the credibility of those around them who are making the same argument. It's like an anti-halo effect.

Every Hollywood actor demanding we take action on climate change while flying around in a private jet weakens the argument for real action on climate change. It makes the issue look like a vanity cause even though it's not.

You see the same thing on taxes. You've got guys like Bernie Sanders out there demanding we all pay more taxes while he himself has a very low rate of charitable giving by most standards. He could also opt to voluntarily pay more taxes right now. Of course he doesn't, which again undercuts any broader point he may have.

Human beings are hardwired to be turned off by hypocrisy.
That's correct. You could shell-out to node with the Shell Command Agent though.
You're getting into semantics. I don't mean they "invented" a concept nobody had done before -- I mean they had to sit down and build a new API in Vue (and write-up a very long documentation page) to solve a common problem. React, by design, avoids adding to the mental load for the developer by minimizing the amount of concepts they need to learn. I highly recommend this talk, he explains it better than I ever could: https://2014.jsconf.eu/speakers/sebastian-markbage-minimal-a...

> The way JS and HTML interact inside JSX is not intuitive at all, and you can't use a lot of JS constructs inside JS, such as `for` loops and `ifs`

You didn't read my one sentence definition. It has to be a statement that evaluates to a primitive. Obviously putting a for loop doesn't work there -- how could it? If you find yourself faced with that desire the obvious solution is to call a function that does whatever `for` and `if` statements you want and returns a value.

> Maybe you just find React easier because you learned it first? Maybe do a few tutorial lessons before judging it? Just because something is different or not familiar to you doesn't mean it's worse or is difficult.

I think it says a lot about your argument that you have to keep questioning my credentials and experience. I've been doing web development for a long time, React is closer to the twentieth framework I've used than the first. It's a big part of my job to build infrastructure for web development and teach the fundamentals to developers who are primarily backend engineers. I've had stellar success with React -- both for the "power users" and those with minimal web development expertise -- and my argument here is attempting to explain why I've had success with React where other frameworks have been struggled.
"Print media" are news organizations though, right?

Facebook and Google are platforms, analogous to a printing house. They let anybody publish their opinions, without endorsement.

You wouldn't go nuts at HaperCollins for printing Mein Kampf, or a bookstore/library for distributing it.
Well, it is literally in the article's first sentence.
Less power consumption and/or the ability to cram more transistors into the same area.

Less power consumption also means less heat generated. I think heat dissipation is the main roadblock to faster CPUs (faster in terms of clock speed).

IANAEE but I think the speed of light becomes a big issue at higher clock speeds. Putting transistors physically closer to each other helps reduce problems with propagation delay.
Still? I never have

In a word, yes.

> Marzluff and two students wore rubber masks. He designated a caveman mask as “dangerous” and, in a deliberate gesture of civic generosity, a Dick Cheney mask as “neutral.” Researchers in the dangerous mask then trapped and banded seven crows on the university’s campus in Seattle.

> In the months that followed, the researchers and volunteers donned the masks on campus, this time walking prescribed routes and not bothering crows.

> The crows had not forgotten. They scolded people in the dangerous mask significantly more than they did before they were trapped, even when the mask was disguised with a hat or worn upside down. The neutral mask provoked little reaction.

> The effect has not only persisted, but also multiplied over the past two years. Wearing the dangerous mask on one recent walk through campus, Marzluff said, he was scolded by 47 of the 53 crows he encountered, many more than had experienced or witnessed the initial trapping.
Beginners All Purpose Symbolic Instruction Code. What a beauty.
Coming from one of these countries to America, the answer seems obvious. STEM jobs have a HUGE differential in stability and status in those countries, so women put up up with much more patriarchal BS at the workplace to hold on to them.

My sister was a STEM worker in India. When she moved to America, she looked around to see writers with relatively safe, high-status job and switched out immediately.

Yes, women in America are "organically" picking non-STEM jobs, but that is because the jobs suck, the environments suck and people are assholes at these jobs. My sister loved the core STEM aspects of her job, but hated the culture of the companies she was stuck working with. This is not "equality", its hostile corporate culture.

tl;dr: Ask Women.
That's the default behavior on Raspbian as well.
That crosses into personal attack and is not ok here.

If people get harangued for showing up and mentioning their employer, that will only disincentivize them and others to participate on topics they know a lot about. That will make HN strictly worse.

a) there are more than enough companies that would be willing to provide that as a service. Any larger country will simply be very big depending on the maximum zoom level (there is a reason why most tile service providers don't pre-render high zoom levels),

b) the more sensible approach would be to use pre-generated vector tiles, for example from https://openmaptiles.org/
My girlfriend sewed a collar for her cat out of a colourful patterned fabric, and also added a fringe of metallic, very reflective material to it. The collar seems to help a lot — he's no longer able to catch any birds, which are apparently highly attuned to bright and reflective colours (though rats aren't a problem). Highly recommended.
So this is incredibly misguided and sexist. But I've lived as a man and a woman, I feel qualified to comment.

The problem is that society holds men and women to a different standard: women are expected to be in control of their emotions / self and men are not. If a woman's emotions come out (screaming or whatever) then she's unhinged, irrational. If a man does it, he's just blowing off steam or asserting himself. Men are not often held accountable for taking their emotions out on people, be they anxiety, depression or insecurity -- so it's not a skill that most men have a chance to develop. This is about societal attitudes held by both men and women, not anything that men have done wrong.

In reality, there are men who can control their emotions and not inflict them on others. It takes the right personality, a nurturing upbringing or lots of therapy, but they exist. It took me a lot of work to learn how to control my emotions to a degree that was considered appropriate for a woman -- even though my behavior hadn't changed. I'm still working on it. But I'm a better person for it regardless of gender, and I think everyone should be held to a high standard on owning their feelings and not inflicting them on those around us.
I'm glad you're enjoying it! Writing it weekly has been a great experience, and I've learned a ton about space science & industry in the process.
The person talked in depth about things happening in California. I can't be certain they are American, but I have ample reason to presume they are.
I'd like to "gain" some knowledge of opamps.
I think I might have addressed this in an edit while your comment was posting. I agree fully on Croatia. It could happen in the 90s but the country has changed a lot since then.
My initial impression was similar to yours, but after I started using hooks, my opinion changed 180 degrees. I've been slowly converting a rather large React frontend to hooks and it solves so many problems.

We used to fetch data with HOCs. That never worked well with typescript and was a big problem when you wanted to use more than one (ie, fetching multiple data sources). With hooks we just add separate hooks for each data source we fetch... and the hooks themselves are much simpler than HOCs.

Like the article mentions, hooks move up a layer of abstraction. I'm purging my brain of all the nitty gritty detail of React component lifecycles, because all I ever really cared about was getting data to update at the right time. And now that's the level I can operate at.

Yeah, it doesn't look like standard object oriented code that we're used to. Maybe they could have chosen a different syntax, dunno. But after you get used to hooks, the grass definitely is greener.
How does this apply to nonbinary people? Not trying to poke holes just genuinely curious.
I think I've heard of this separate but equal idea before. Can't quite remember, but I don't think it worked out too well.
A fair amount, I'm also not young and find time to make it happen. I love building things and I couldn't really imagine not working on my own projects.
The OSM initiative is fantastic, but only the data is good. The software around it is low-quality, and the documentation is not good enough.

I once managed to import data exports I found on geofabrik and load it into a spatialite database. It was not very complicated but it was difficult to find help to understand what I was doing. But doing it felt pretty good. I still have to test if what I loaded actually works though.

Other experience I had, trying to load vector tiles from mapbox, with the PBF (google protocol buffers) format, in C++. I swiftly gave up. The C++ header generated was gigantic, apparently those .mbtiles were zipped PBF in a sqlite or something like that. It was horrendous. Mapbox seems like good software (and we need alternative to google maps) but I don't think they help OSM at all, at least not with the OSM model.

So in short, OSM needs some skilled engineers to work on the formats they can encourage. GIS is not a simple subject, and I wish there was more good FOSS for it.

Cheers to the OSMand team who can let me browse my region on my 70 euros android without a data plan, for free! That's a lot of money saved.

No doubt I will use OSM data to generate a 3D view of the world, so I can make a game with it. Outerra did it (they also made incredible city renders I think), but they are not planning to release a game, what a shame!
>They changed the data type on the shares_owned field from int to floating point

probably some sort of decimal type to avoid rounding issues.

PureComponent is reproducible with React.memo(functionComponent)

My main complaint with hooks is people seem to think they always need them. I've seem components where every single piece of data, no matter how trivial, is slapped into a useMemo(). It becomes a lot of mental overhead to trace through them all, especially confirming the useMemos have the correct dependencies specified. Especially when the vast majority of the time, useMemo just isn't needed.

I think you are probably right, though you could have left your diatribe about the men who work for you out. One could easily come up with equally typical scenarios to ridicule neurotic, shallow and emotionally unstable women. Each gender has its set of typical pathologies. But somehow we made it work, together, as a species, so there is some magic in the balancing the two.
This isn't new information. Not even sort of new. This has been known for quite some time (20-30 YEARS). Jordan Peterson has also mentioned it numerous times over the years but the original studies are quite old.

Yet people are shocked to learn this because this data/facts aren't liked by politicians and even some scientists so it doesn't get discussed. Not sure why. There's nothing wrong with having different preferences. But some people like to pretend everyone is more or less exactly the same and want to do the same things and the only reason to differ would be societal influence.
The difference is that, unlike forests and private spaces, (easy and consumer-grade) E2E encryption is new. Law enforcement is concerned that adding this new thing to society will change things for the worse. That's a reasonable concern in general, even if we don't think it's true in this specific case.

You don't have a general right to keep secrets from law enforcement. With a warrant, they can spy on you to try and get your secrets in ways that would otherwise be scandalous or downright illegal. If you don't think law enforcement should be allowed to steal people's secrets at all, fair enough, but that's a very radical view and I don't think most people supporting E2E encryption share it.
If I said "Britain has draconian libel laws" or "The US has absurd copyright laws" would I be wrong? Off the top of my head, I can't name a single rule or law that supports my claim, I only picked up a sense of that from reading the news. Likewise, I read articles like this and I get the impression that Russian IP laws are basically just tools for running extortion rackets... that's my simplistic layperson's take on the situation, but I don't really see any credible counter narrative in this thread.
I can see that working once everyone knows the systems and each other's tendencies and habits, but a new person pretty much needs to be embedded to absorb unwritten information.
Love it. I've been blogging for 16 years myself. Find it a wonderful way to share knowledge and see myself changing over time. I've tried keeping a diary but it never works for me.

I am the CTO of an edu org, and I've spent a lot of time thinking about this. I would say that from our perspective, it's people aware that they're paralyzed by choice. Unity is a bad choice for kids because there's SO MANY OPTIONS on how to build your game, so many plugins, so many choices!

QBasic was great because it was limited. You had to do a lot of the work yourself, sure, but you could start with a simple text game and not have to think about which input library to use, or font choices, or whatever.

We start kids with Scratch. Most of them build a cute toy and get bored - we break out python (a document with a few imports and a window that opens with a moving sprite included) for the ones who start getting frustrated with the scratch gui (because it's too limiting).
6th graders have to deal with a friend's feed of him watching rape porn
I don't understand how the aging works.

Pure calcite does not contain uranium. How do we know the calcite didn't form in an environment already containing traces of old decaying uranium and thus trapped both thorium and uranium as the crystal formed?

Edit: I think I've figured it out (from the wiki[1])

> Thorium is not soluble in natural water under conditions found at or near the surface of the earth, so materials grown in or from this water do not usually contain thorium.[citation needed] In contrast, uranium is soluble to some extent in all natural water, so any material that precipitates or is grown from such water also contains trace uranium, typically at levels of between a few parts per billion and few parts per million by weight.

So what I'm guessing is happening is this: Running water is dissolving uranium and going down a cave wall. The water contains no thorium because thorium is not soluble and the water is running (i.e. by the time the uranium decays it will not be on the wall anymore). Calcite forms using the minerals in the running water, and traps the dissolved uranium. Only then can it decay inside the crystal into thorium.

## Heatache

In a real way, this article shows how 6th grade life is into the "6 degrees of separation from seeing evil"

In light of these hopefully overblown and hyperbolic headlines I am crushed for parents who lack the skills or knowhow to protect their young minds; I so hope that the article is hyperbole, but if the article contains a modicum of truth, I feel like I have a burden to help advocate for sensible parental advice to other parents.

## Call to Action

After getting the list started, it seems like there are two categorical solutions: technical + non-technical strategies. I would love your help to compile these things so I can tell them to anyone who will listen.

### Technical

1. I have a the home router set to turn off the internet to the kids at night

2. Use DNS Filtering (eg: `openDNS`) on the home WiFi

3. Copy the DNS settings to the child's device

4. Require Access to your children's social accounts and spot check it a few times so as to seem like there might be a check at any time.

5. Use Parental Controls when sensible

### Non Technical

1. Be very upfront (but age appropriate) with your kids

2. Proactive communication about sexual education

3: Delay access to a phone as long as is reasonable

## What Else?

I now put it out to the community - What are other effective strategies/methods you have used?
Amen.

Recommenders, like bureaucracies, are misanthropic (anti-human).

The rules are meant to remove human judgement. While denying the baked in bias and dysfunction of the imposed ruleset.

Per Goodhart's Law, they arbitrarily state some things are worthwhile & meaningful, and everything else are not.

Black boxes which thwart inspection, transparency, accountability, explanation.

Forgive me for flogging this horse; I do have a point.

Also missing from online social networks are the concepts of fair and impartial adjudication.

Curation, adjudication, transparency, accountability... I'm sure we're omitting many other missing features. Because we're too close to the problem.

Going meta meta here: the common trait of all these "regulation arbitrage" unicorns is they profit by the destruction of our society's laws, checks & balances, social norms, and so forth.

I had so much trouble working around people that I would get an empty conference room. The gentle AC fan in the conference room would act as a "white noise" for me, which would help me concentrate. I then found this iOS app called Noisli that had white noise that helped. But working around people has always been challenging for me especially when they get into a conference call and you can hear squeaky noises of people from the other side of the call!
Gods, I have no idea why you're being downvoted. The comment you're replying to literally starts with:

Moderation policy is an axis of competition. Letting each platform explore moderation systems (a) let’s us compare results, (b) reduces the damage a single company’s bad policies can inflict, (c) and gives users on both sides alternatives if they disagree.
