Yes. It is addressed in TFA, as well as the current top-voted comment on the article.
There are a few things that make it less convenient. One of them like you pointed out is the size and comfort issues but there are other issues. VR/AR chats require your full attention / real time communication. Most communication has left phone calls and moved to asynchronous communication methods. Another is limitations of the space, people spend a large % of there communication time on public transport, instant messaging translates well to this since it requires no listening or making noise and requires minimal space. Full body tracking and spacial awareness is useless when you are sitting down.

I think if people really wanted to primary communicate with facial/avatar awareness, we would see everyone using video calls over social media and IMs.

I think VR/AR communication has some place in the future but I do not see it becoming a serious/primary communication tool.
Ask HN: What are your views on writing like you speak?
I'm a long time reader of Mr. Graham and other essayists like Mr. Welch of stilldrinking.org, they are writers that I very much like reading, and they also tend to write in a very conversational manner- PG even has an essay titled "Write Like You Talk" [1].

When I reflect on the various technical books I've read over my life, I realize that the ones that I am able to get through most easily and pick up the ideas within with the least amount of friction are those written in a more colloquial manner. In fact, I often find pieces of writing that are devoid of any kind of 'voice' impenetrable, especially if their subject matter in nontrivial.

However, through all my years from childhood through college nearly every single teacher/professor I've had has wagged a finger saying "do not write like you speak" at some point. This seems to be the norm, as my younger sibling just told me about similar experiences.

I fail to see the value in intentionally writing in a way that is completely different from how you speak.

Does anyone here have opposite experiences, do more colloquial styles make things too obscure or hard/annoying to follow?

> why is that my problem?

This kind of attitude is the problem. You’re supposed to be working together toward the same goal. As a team.

A team of “not my problem” people who are working only towards their own individual goals (or worse, CYA) is the most toxic team that can exist.
I think you’re mistaking the stability of Apple’s x.0 releases as “negative effects” of security patches.

That sounds an awful lot like updating our prior beliefs based on data a la Bayesian modeling. So it's actually not a terrible way to go about updating noisy estimates.
The main thing I want is for OnlyOffice or Collabora to work on FreeBSD in some capacity and I haven't been able to do it (both have open issues that receive very little attention). I want to run my self hosted office solution on the same machine as the data, and I'd really rather avoid VMs.

So, I use Linux because Docker and BTRFS work just fine for me use case. I prefer FreeBSD, but unfortunately I'm unable to solve my problems easily with just FreeBSD, so I'm using something else.

> Light can reflect off of transparent crystals

If light is reflecting off of something, it's precisely because that thing isn't transparent[0].

> if the mirror is moving towards or away from the light, the reflection will be Doppler-shifted to a higher or lower frequency.

This does not refute OP's assertion. If the photon is absorbed and a "different"[1] one emitted, the emitted photon is still emitted from a reference frame that is moving with some velocity, therefore the emitted photon will still be Doppler-shifted... The photon is still emitted at the correct energy level. The photon appears to have higher energy in the stationary reference frame.

[0] Disregarding human-centric definitions that have to do with visible spectrum.

[1] Thinking of the photons as "different" doesn't actually mean much when it comes to quantum mechanics; they're indistinguishable bosons.

Interestingly, here in Japan, I learned that they consider a lower body temperature normal. I always learned in France that the normal body temperature was 37.7C, some people say 37.3. Can be lower just after waking up.

For my Japanese wife, 37C means you may starting to get sick. you should be in the 36s.

Just an anecdote, but the normal temperature could vary among population, latitude, weather conditions...

That's why I said the syntax is largely done. They're still actively working on tooling as this release shows. The compiler has some useful improvements. IMHO, a stable syntax leaves more focus on improving the tooling as in this release. It seems to work well for Clojure as well.

That pretty well sums up why I rather like Clojure and Rust but not Elixir: tooling is an afterthought, at best, with Elixir.

Luckily, bitwalker's work has largely been integrated into Elixir in v1.9.

That's disappointing to hear. Distillery was a cobbled together mess of bash (not even POSIX!) scripts that should've been put out to pasture ages ago. Elixir has three major problems from my POV: developer tooling is an afterthought, portability is an afterthought, and build artifacts / deployments are unwieldy. Distillery embodies all three and it's a shame that the path forward is simply to throw more bodies at a broken solution.

Recently the Erlang Ecosystem Foundation [EEF](https://erlef.org) was founded and supported by a several companies and the community to ensure the Erlang (including Elixir) ecosystem is maintained.

Unfortunately the status quo is not great – rather than doubling down on poorly thought out solutions it would be nice to see actual improvement. I spent enough time dissecting distillery in an attempt to get deployments to work to make my eyes bleed.

Contrast that with rust where the developer experience is front and center. Even as the syntax evolves over time it remains a pleasure to use. rls is flaky but that's such a minor problem in comparison.
Landlords have insurance too. Plenty of people still rent. If a landlord is struggling to fill their apartment in sf, maybe they should try not asking 3000 a month. The demand is very much there.
I use BTRFS and it works fine. Just don't use RAID5/6 and you should be good to go.

I've also heard success stories using ZFS on Linux, but I haven't bothered because I'd just rather use something that's in the kernel instead of something outside it.
Archos flys and this is in the face of Amazon's Fire OS which is not the fastest UI at all.
The harder it is to exploit the data, the harder it is to do basic genetic research. There's a fundamental dilemma there. If you don't want to share your data with research organizations, so be it. But calling other people suckers for voluntarily sharing their data means you'd rather live in a world where scientific and medical advancement are stunted.

That's like called open source contributors suckers, as it gives away their labor for free and makes them more susceptible to copyright and patent litigation. Maybe so, but the world is better off for it.

>Please don’t take the Michael Scott approach and turn this into a backhanded compliment (‘My biggest weakness is that I care too much’). I’d highly recommend giving an honest answer, and one that is as specific as possible and not handwavy. This shows that you’re self-aware and are able to independently identify areas for personal growth

I disagree. People should be aware of the downsides to their strengths when they exist. One can be very creative but with the cost of a very scattered focus. One can drill down extremely deeply on problems but have trouble knowing when to move on.

Then again I think this whole exercise in telling people what managers want to hear in an interview is pointless, subjective ego masturbation.

What if your greatest weakness comes off as a false red flag? What if you know there's a high likelihood that they'll take it as such even though you're an above average fit for the position? Of course the manager wants an honest answer - this is the ideal answer from the manager's perspective, but piss poor advice for a candidate. Personally, I can't imagine putting an interviewee on the spot like that for such a poor, noisy signal.

They address this in the paper, to some extent. With SIMD, you get 128, 256, or 512 bits of vector. You can either store 32x4, 32x8, 32x16, or 64x2, 64x4, 64x8 words. But either way you're processing N bits in parallel.

The concern about 64-bit machines and using 64-bit word sizes vs 32-bit word sizes really only matters if your 64-bit machine doesn't have SIMD vector extensions. (All amd64 hardware, for example, has at least SSE2.) And as they point out, being 32-bit native really helps on low-end 32-bit machines without SIMD intrinsics.

(Re: the hypothetical, if wireguard were to do a protocol revision and replace Blake2B with this, it would make sense to also replace Chacha20 with Chacha8 or 12 at the same time. I doubt the WG authors will do any such thing any time soon.)

VitaRiche Luxe Skin Cream

You know the old saying “no regrets”? It’s all about keeping your sights set ahead, never looking back! And for the most part, we try to live our life that way! But there ARE a few reasons we wish we could turn back time! And some of those reasons become crystal clear when we look at our skin! When we’re young, it’s easy to have great skin! Remember how low maintenance life was before all the lotions, potions, and creams? When all you had to do was give your face a wash each day and you’d have smooth, even, soft skin! But as we age, things start to change. Our skin starts to lose those beautiful youthful qualities! It’s normal and natural, but that doesn’t make it any easier! But VitaRiche LUXE Skin Cream is here to say you DON’T have to settle! Could you get back the youthful skin you dream about?
Even if you take excellent care of your skin, many other factors can affect the way our skin ages! First of all, our skin naturally begins to lose collagen as we age. And collagen is one of the things that keeps our skin looking plump and supple! And beyond that, free radicals, sun, wind, dust, and pollutants can all make your skin look dull, dry, and aged! But could VitaRiche Skin Cream help you hit rewind? Just click any image on this review page to find out more and place an order for your own jar! You could wake up to a more glowy tomorrow!

The moderation is outsourced to another company.

---------------

From the article:

Facebook, which outsources the majority of its content moderation to over 15,000 third-party contractors.

My opinion is most tech companies do not want to treat their own employees like this. But they don't really want moderators to get equal treatment as their own employees so they outsource it.
Mark seems to be embracing remote work here citing how it can help alleviate skyrocketing housing costs, yet Facebook doesn't hire remote workers. He's in a position to start an industry trend here by putting his money where his mouth is, but instead we just get this blog post.

Certainly better than nothing though, just like him previpusly bringing up universal basic income. Would be nice to see him again put his money where his mouth in and support Andrew Yang. He's rich enough to do whatever he wants and actually change reality.
>>The language used in these communications, and some of the sentiments they express, are inconsistent with Boeing values, and the company is taking appropriate action in response. This will ultimately include disciplinary or other personnel action, once the necessary reviews are completed.

Two things:

1. You would be surprised at how normal talk like that is in huge corporations due to internal politics. People bad-mouth other projects that are getting limelight, taking away resources, etc. A more benign example is how often Google employees rag on the GCP engineers as being inferior, which has more to do with the money flowing into GCP than merit.

2. People are irrational about safety, despite data showing something is ok. There were droves of people that said they would never get on a fly-by-wire plane (Airbus), despite having no evidence to support their fears.
I think the parent is worried about the possible mandatory ubiquity of AR devices more than anything. As long as skipping a tech is socially acceptable and does not impose impractical costs (try living without interacting with a computer or a phone in a big city for a month and see how well it goes), AR vendors will have to have consumers interests in mind. As soon as AR becomes pragmatically unavoidable, vendors can and will exploit their leverage to impose additional costs on consumers to their own benefit, because opting out of AR will be even worse than swallowing it whole (welcome to game theory).
I have seen some suggestions but I haven't been able to find an app supporting the following, if anyone knows one app, please share:

- Works on the phone and on the computer.

- The data can be synced to a server which stores it encrypted by your password.

- Cheap or single payment.

While some comments are suggesting YNAB and it looks great, $12 is a bit expensive for a personal budget app, also, they encrypt their data on their servers instead of encrypting it with our password before uploading the data.

budgetwithbuckets.com also looks promising, I like the unlimited free trial and it's single payment model, but it doesn't have mobile apps, which makes not much difference than storing the data on excel.
> Ooof...some of the liberals you see these days (I consider myself liberal) would be outraged at "Blazing Saddles". I re-watched it recently and wasn't sure if the film would survive today.

IMO, The History of the World Part 2 has a much tougher time of it. The movie's attitudes towards women don't have any satire to lean on. It just comes across as crass and lecherous.

I don't see why you couldn't. The hardware to do it isn't expensive, so the camera itself could do that processing locally and just send the data along with the video encrypted to the end device.

> No you can use Wayland as long as your window manager/environment supports GBM.

You can do that on Intel and AMD drivers and other open source graphics drivers, which due to being open source allow 3rd parties like redhat to patch in GBM support in drivers and mesa when required.

Nvidia driver does not support GBM code paths. Therefore wayland does not work on nvidia. And because nvidia driver is not open source, someone else cannot patch GBM in.

I've been using .NET Core for new projects since it first came out, and I think it's important to remember that a couple years back .NET Core wasn't really stable enough for production use (in comparison to .NET Framework). The original project files were in a different format, you often had to fight the tooling, and important libraries like Entity Framework were missing key features. Despite that, the fact that Linux was a target platform made the whole thing worth it.

Core 2.0 came out mid 2017, and in my mind I still wasn't sure .NET Core had cooled down enough to port applications from .NET Framework. 2.0 turned out to largely be stable enough for production, but there wasn't really any way of knowing that without watching it for a few years.

We've only just gotten to the point where moving an important production code base to .NET core actually feels like the correct thing to do. I'm sure there will still be some hurdles involved, but at least there won't be too many landmines.
