Reddit is much more pleasant when you filter the more toxic content. I like it a lot more after using Reddit Enhancement Suite to filter particularly nasty and/or unattractive subreddits. Kind of like real life, I just find a way to tune out what I don't like. If Reddit becomes 10% censored, it will stop being one of the few places that is actually interesting to me.
I am really excited for this project and hope it is opinionated enough and doesn’t go down the rabbit hole of endless customisable options in a Rome.js|json|rc file. I also hope this is as painless as Go and Elm’s default tooling.
Is this what you’re saying: it’s silly to not want anything to do with a company because another company is worse in one specific way?
Do you have any examples of cities or companies that pay well in Europe relative to the CoL?
>They seem perfectly happy to let open source businesses die while they hold a position solely beneficial to Amazon, Microsoft, and Google.

Approving discriminatory licenses is not a solution and would put even more power in the hands of those large companies. I guarantee your company would be pretty damn unhappy if Amazon, Microsoft, and Google said something you wanted was open source and then it turned out it was SSPL/Commons Clause/BSL.

>they would actually gather up the lawyers behind SSPL, Commons Clause, BSL, etc.

The OSI does not gather up lawyers. They are a charity. You submit them a license and then they review it and decide whether to endorse it or not. That's what they do. Funding a large group of lawyers to make a new license is out of scope for them. I actually agree with you that something like this should happen in the long-term, and the OSI should be involved, but they are not the ones you need to lean on to kick-start the process.

>Open source as a movement will live or die on whether or not either the OSI addresses this issue, or we unseat our caring for the OSI's position.

There is nothing to address. MongoDB didn't address any of the community's concerns and then pulled out of the license review process instead of fixing the license. Like I said, pressuring the OSI is not the way to go and these threats (?) are misdirected and totally irrelevant on HN anyway -- Official OSI discussion doesn't happen here, and trying to dilute the term "open source" for marketing reasons benefits nobody, not even when it's your company. If you have concerns about the process, you should bring it up with MongoDB. The ball apparently is in their court.
It goes earlier than that, after all most mainframes, starting with Burroughs Large Systems have been making use of IR based toolchains.

The research paper about the PL/8 (also known as PL.8) compiler toolchain, used by IBM for their RISC research, is the oldest I have read were they proud themselves of having a toolchain quite similar to the initial LLVM design.

Inside Amazon’s First Full-Blown Cashierless Supermarket
In my country, the first person who was declared recovered was tested for several days (and coming up negative) before being discharged.

The NHK said that this woman had no contact with anyone after being released. I believe that, being one of the first cases, someone botched up the testing or she was discharged too early.
You shouldn't have to choose a 'fundamentally parasitic' app in order to get nice content. Its not like you're making a good trade-off. Its not like "oh record everything about me and everyone I am near, just so long as you give me good feelings instead of arguments!" sounds reasonable.

Yes reddit is a cesspool, and even HN seems to be slipping perceptibly, and no I can't think of anywhere nice and safe, but that doesn't mean tiktok is a good choice for anyone.
This is a common way to implement it: https://www.investopedia.com/articles/trading/04/091504.asp

It’s not foolproof, but generally the idea is to keep positions small (relative to portfolio size) and quickly take profits - which is critical when dealing with something as insanely volatile as options. With options one can also improve their odds with intermediate strategies (such as call debit spreads, straddles/strangles during earnings). I often will temporarily buy calls on something like TECS (-3X Inverse Technology ETF) when I’m speculating on multiple tech earnings plays within the same week - that way if my calls on Apple or Microsoft don’t pan out it’ll be offset by the inverse ETF gains. Options can be an incredible tool, and used properly can be excellent for managing risk effectively.
“I’m confident that Reddit could sway elections. We wouldn’t do it, of course. And I don’t know how many times we could get away with it. But, if we really wanted to, I’m sure Reddit could have swayed at least this election, this once.”

That is indeed a very different time. I believe in the 90s the STL was considered too radical in its use of templates to be practical. People's perception has come a long way. Heck, instead of sane std::list<T> people used to do intrusive linked lists by having T inherit from a linked list base class. What a terrible idea.

Could be that my (IT) company is an outlier, but we've been told that we should work remote and only come to the office if we absolutely must. And if we do go to work, we are to avoid riding the trains during rush hour. Business trips are all canceled.

Well that's the company I'm employed by, but the company I'm currently deployed at (until today) is an automotive company and they don't seem ready to allow much remote work to take place.
Use a git template for .git/info/exclude. This will make sure that every new repo you create or clone will have by default exclude list. Git templates can be used for other stuff too. I use them for having a pre-push hook to run a clean build.

This misses the point that Reddit does effectively exactly what TikTok does with it's user targeting. Steve is the Pot calling the Kettle black.
I've heard a similar issue in the design of train furnishings. There was a large overhaul of fine retardant material after a tragic South Korean train disaster (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Daegu_subway_fire).

I'm not sure what is the right call is in the train case, because they have the same toxicity issue, interesting to hear it in this context. It makes me wonder if there is more to this story given your allegations
Everyone I know is worried about it.
The front page of Reddit is pure toxicity, sure. But Reddit gives me the ability to curate my feed. I can curate the subreddits that I want and switch to that custom field, keeping all that toxicity away while still getting the depth reddit provides for niche communities.

Exactly this is the point. It's one thing to allow companies in your own country/influence sphere (NATO/western world) to build massive data piles about your citizens, but an entirely different thing to allow a national enemy (or at the very least, competitor) such as China to do the same.

Given that there are many young soldiers, policemen, politicians or employees in security-critical environments it's not far fetched that a social media app such as tiktok which has cam/mic access is able to serve as a remote controlled bug for its owners. For what it's worth, ordinary tracking of location data is already an interesting data pile - a bunch of phones that for half a year only appear on a US military base and then suddenly appear somewhere remote in Afghanistan? Most likely they're deployed soldiers. Then look at what they post and suddenly you have names, ranks, specializations... and as said, all of that is possible with ordinary tracking, the dangers of an actual bug are magnitudes larger.

DisplayPort and HDMI have very different protocols: HDMI (like DVI) has three separate physical channels, one for each colour, whereas DisplayPort sends whole pixels down a single logical channel.

I’m gonna say it. We should be lucky this virus originated in China. It was bound to happen with all the globalization.

What they did with their lockdown, and welding people inside their apartment buildings, is a godsend for the rest of us.

They bought the world time to prepare, to understand the virus, and maybe develop a remedy or vaccine.

But instead of taking positive action, most people of the world just mocked the Chinese people. This was incredibly short sighted.

Imagine if this virus originated from bats in South America. Or from bats in Austin or Seattle, and with a president too incompetent to mobilize or do anything. If the mortality and infection statistics hold across the board, then a large majority of us might be dead by now.
Good way to hide the shit under the rug indeed.
The reason that the Spanish Flu evolved into a more deadly strain was because WWI was going on. The mild cases stayed at the front lines while the severe ones went home and spread the severe strain around.

This won't happen here because the severe strain will die out. Viruses generally become less lethal as they spread.

> C++ is tolerated rather than adored

For lower-level programming, while my favorite is Rust, if I cannot use Rust for some reason (say the team against it) I'd use C++.

To be sure, what I mean is I would use my favorite subset of C++, and I adore that subset. The parts of C++ outside of my chosen subset are merely tolerated.
Nm. That was my poor attempt at some js humour
It's interesting how so much of programming is knowing about the existence of libraries and not trying to rebuild things that already exist. I'm sure there are thousands of people out there who sanitize inputs and outputs naively and don't know about great libs like DomPurify.

I know I'm guilty of trying to build something from first principles only to google it after banging my head against edge cases and finding a ready-made library or util that with a tiny bit of finesse or modification does the job.
> I don't see why they _couldn't_

It's not easy to automate, or to build a model that demonstrates that targeting this low-level will have a positive ROI. Advertising is a fickle game, and I don't see this being successful without building it on a broad program that allocates spend by some segmentation of their sales (e.g. product category).
So are Jewish people/content, but surely you wouldn't suggest banning them would be "working" in any way but superficially: that's called racism. Banning people based on innate characteristics that do no harm is wrong, as most people agree.
No. That's not a subreddit, it's just an index of trending content. Reddit even created r/popular to make a more filtered and generic version of r/all.

It depends if it was sold with the property or not. Rent is anywhere between 20-35% of your running cost depending on region. And you tend to get higher quality food in places where Rent isn't ridiculously high as restaurant can afford to move those cost to the plate.

> So if you want to pay everyone the same wage, you either stop hiring from SF altogether or you give everyone SF salaries.

The first option is a perfectly reasonable position to take. There's less than a million people in SF. There's over seven billion people everywhere else. The people in SF aren't magical; people outside of SF can do the job just as well.

> if you pay everyone SF wages, then you might as well open an SF office and hire only from SF.

This statement only makes sense if the only thing you are considering is cost. Even if the cost is identical, it's still advantageous to hire remotely. It's easier to hire, there's a much larger pool of candidates, it lets you hire people who would otherwise be inaccessible to you for other reasons, it increases loyalty, there's no commute draining people's energy, etc.

> Because remote work has disadvantages, like poor communications

In my experience, fully remote teams are much better at communicating than mixed or onsite-only teams. Why do you think remote work brings poor communications?

What has been the efficacy of antibiotics on this virus?

Normally if you get sick, and it develops into bronchitis, the doctor just prescribes you some antibiotics, the ZPack. Has that not helped in this situation?
Report 4 was published on Feb 10 (the report itself doesn't include any date info, which IMO is a huge mistake, but you bet the data is even older -- the last death recorded in the attached CSV file was from Jan 23), with a couple of stats derived from only two deaths. I would take this report with a bowl of salt, or even mark it as obsolete.
That is true, but, there are applications where the majority of the power budget goes to the radio, such as a wireless sensor. I worked with battery powered wifi sensors in the past, and very infrequent transmissions (15 minutes) still accounted for 90+% of the power budget. Average current for a 2-3 second transmission was something like 60-80 mA, with a huge in-rush current on boot. I see this and think it's probably too good to be true in practice for something like that.
Solar bids already already dip way below that regularly for several years. By the time any of this is built, << 1c per kwh should be the norm. That only requires a 2x cost reduction which is nothing considering cost trends over the last decade with solar. Think orders of magnitude here.

Google Docs had real time collaborative editing years before Microsoft.

Word online was a piece of crap for years. A decade? This is crazy talk. It's like how people call Microsoft teams good when using it is like loading pages in a Internet Explorer 6 app.

Who cares what you saw as an intern? Did they not release it because it was too good for the public?
I like the fact that you said "2 decades back" and then in the same breath you said "classes had provided a standardized way to do stuff in React land." Did you know that classes weren't the original way to do things in React land because JavaScript didn't have them? You'd use React's own version using React.createClass instead. For the longest time there were people against the introduction of classes in JavaScript because it obscured JavaScript's prototypal inheritance nature and they stuck to React.createClass and lamented that "class Foo extends React.Component" was too much divergence from React.createClass and made things inconsistent.
Yes, you contract it via eyes, nose and mouth.
Working on a little side project using GAN AI as a method of illustration generation.

Designers will resist the first examples of these kinds of services, but it's really the marketing managers that will see them rise to prominence.

Being able to load a company style guide, and connect a repo of approved assets/components, and click to generate content in the context of the output requirements? It's simply going to exist. And designers will do what they (we) always do, and that is use the available tools to give more controlled nuance and meaning to the content across.

TL;DR... hiring designers to do this manually for now, and thinking how we enable everyone at scale (the next step beyond "just use Canva" which doesn't help the time-poor marketing teams).
Well, Typescript is literally checked in to the repo under node_modules. So I imagine the author just means "forget lockfiles, let's check this all in."
Extra history is fantastic, thanks for sharing.

The problem here isn't with the mortality per se, it's with the strain on healthcare resources. We just don't have the capacity to deal with an influx of cases requiring hospitalization. Currently about 10%+ of COVID-19 require that. We don't have the beds, the oxygen support, the ventilators, and generally the ability to keep these people from infecting others. That leads to scenes like in Wuhan where people get turned away from hospitals, where they end up dying at home, where bodies require mass cremation, etc. This could happen anywhere. The US healthcare system is not prepared for this. (I don't believe for a second in the assertion that it's the best in the world. Perhaps quality of care is good, but the system that pays for it is a joke. But it's also hugely variable, with some great hospitals attached to university research centers, and a ton of terrible underfunded ones.)
As an American that has been living in Europe for 5+ years, I'd say this: American culture, for better or worse, is fundamentally pragmatic. There is an undercurrent of "but how does this make money/get users/impact the world?" to basically every activity, software development included. Creating stuff just for artistic reasons still happens (like demoscene), but it takes a backseat to a focus on industry.
Considering this is just a source code dump and call for possible contributors I'm disappointed it was even posted to Hacker News. Rome is not ready at all for public consumption. I wanted it open sourced so I could work with other tooling authors and contributors.

I like their suggestions to:

- make clipboard access a separate privilege for an app

- except when the user actively pastes something

This should allow existing apps that has legitimate reasons for accessing the clipboard to continue to work (only they need to ask for clipboard access once) and allow all normal user workflows to continue working.

(I'd also like a separate Network Access privilege for apps. There's absolutely no reason why for example a simple calculator app should need network access.)
Not just tech-adjacent political content, but intellectually-stimulating political content, too.
My guess is that the world didn't really understand what and why China did take such draconian measures (Shutting down whole cities, locking people in their homes, stopping transportation, building hospitals in record time, etc...). From the graph it looks like China successfully contained the disease. China has around 78,500 cases; around 65,000 of those are in Hubei which has 50 million people.

If we were to extrapolate these numbers to the rest of the world (ex. China), that would be around 8.19 million cases and around 350k deaths. But this assumes that the cities of the rest of the world could implement the strict curfews that China implemented.

It's also important to remember that Hubei had a big support network of neighboring cities which could provide resources. Countries where all cities will break out at the same time will have a hard time copping.
