(Also not a Tailwind user) I guess the common response to this is that well chosen semantic names usually help later down the line after these kinds of changes happen, especially with devs coming in and out.

I've actually come across C code that had "#define ONE_THOUSAND_TWENTY_FOUR 4096" because that was the audio buffer size and later had to be increased to 4096 but the macro name was never changed. AUDIO_BUFFER_SIZE would probably have been a better name in the first place.

Most code is not that bad though, haha. But that is still my first reaction. What if instead of slightly changing the gray color, you now want them to be blue and underlined? Or take HN for example, the username, vote buttons, and timestamp are all #828282, but have different class names. Is keeping this in sync ever a problem in Tailwind? This is only my first time looking at Tailwind, but it seems it's not really meant for "complex" apps where you'd run into these problems often?
The article, at least, doesn't say anything about HDF5 not be chunked.

Ask HN: What Is IoT Security?
I've been hearing a lot of buzzwords around IoT security and I'm still trying to understand what the big deal is. Let's take the following situation.

Say I have a raspberry pi on my home network that has only one function: Every hour it performs a GET request to https://www.myapi.com/time and gets a JSON response back (current date) and maybe reads out loud through a speaker.

If the device has all inbound ports blocked (so no SSH), communicates using TLS 1.2 to my trusted web server, and has updates and other connectivity turned off, what is the inherent risk? Other than if at some point my version of TLS becomes outdated.

I understand that land is finite, but you'll need to explain further how tech is at all similar, or else I'm not sure it's a good metaphor. Monopolistic platforms aren't great, and I'm also no fan of competitive inefficiency, but how is any of this like land? It sounds like you're implying it becomes impossible at some point to make more tech?
Believe it or not there is an element of strategy in Monopoly (or can be, if you take the time to learn it). Not all spaces are landed on equally, and not all properties have the same return on investment.

Playing with common house rules tends to remove elements of strategy.
Yes, but now Google took over and did so very thoroughly. Chrome=Google now.

How to win at Monopoly and lose all your friends (2016)
After using it a little bit more. I think what was hard for me initially (and is still a little cumbersome) is that the rendered markdown windows weren't always pinned if I started exploring the code.

I don't have a ton of experience using VS code so that may be something specific to me and could probably be fixed with a short intro guide on how to use this editor before I delve into a hyperdoc for a project.

Aside from that, one thing I didn't like about the UX is that if I did click a link in the rendered markdown for a specific function, let's say create.. then I didn't have a way to browse "back" to the top level README hyperdoc without clicking the readme in the file tree.
It does exactly nothing better than anything that was done before it.
Then you aren't playing correctly.

The way to win monopoly is in trading cards to gain monopolies. The winner is almost always the person who makes the most deals.

A player can win the game simple by making the most deals with other players, even if they are a loser in every single one of those deals.

It's far more a lesson on negotiations and trading - ie. business lessons, not capitalism lessons.
Now we have to combine this with Wikipedia, so the text of the article directly references the 3D model, with parts of the 3D model. Text is good, but exploring visuals helps understanding.
Canada has a carbon tax and an end of year rebate. They have been introducing it step by step, it’s per province so numbers are hard to summarise. The Wikipedia page has plenty of info for you to rest assured: it works. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_pricing_in_Canada

They are a northern climate. There are no mass protests. Carbon emissions are going down.

Instead of asking people how they feel about a theoretical scenario, you can look at reality.
Actually, an ironic communism game sounds like lots of fun.
> Honestly my main concern in the United States is the complete and utter panic that will be caused by something that is only marginally less dangerous than getting in one's car to go to work each morning.

If the fatality rate of COVID-19 is 2% as feared, that is dramatically more dangerous than getting in your car every morning.

The flu kills somewhere around 20-30k Americans every year. The common flu has a fatality rate of around .1%. So for something that is potentially 20 times as deadly, we're looking at hundreds of thousands of deaths. By contrast, car accidents only kill around 35k Americans per year.
Our healthcare system is really going to bite us here too - people are extremely hesitant to seek medical care since there's such a crapshoot of costs that you could pay.

(e.g. the story of the person who was fearful after developing flu systems after traveling to China so he checked into the ER for testing and got a $3,500 bill that 'might' be knocked down to $1,400 if he provides 3 years of medical history to prove it wasn't a preexisting condition: https://www.miamiherald.com/news/health-care/article24047680...)

So we have people who don't want to miss work and people who won't seek medical care unless they're in the later stages of the disease to avoid thousands of dollars of cost. Hopefully it peters out but this could get really ugly.
> we use the JIRA field called ‘Severity’ to represent a (somewhat) objective assessment of a bug’s impact to the functionality of the system

> crashing bug in your bio screen

The examples makes it clear that they use "severity" to map types of bug to severity level in a completely opaque way. Regardless of the impact of the bug, "crash" -> "high" and "typo" -> "low". A crash is high-severity even if it has low-impact in every category ("functionality of the system" included), but a typo is low-severity even if it is high-impact in an important category? Why?

> a misplaced comma might seem like nothing worthy of emergent attention, but what if it completely re-purposes your brand statement

This just sounds like a high-severity bug: it may be low "functionality of the system" severity, but it is high "brand identity/loyalty" severity.

I think it becomes obvious that there is not much benefit of a special field for "functionality of the system" severity or even the underlying bug "type" that it seems to be representing. All severity is used here as a triage-heuristic anyways. Great. Now you can freely forget about it and find a better triage-heuristic for your QA team so that they can assign the priority more accurately.
They made a parody like that actually:

That's not real wealth though. The houses and hotels are the actual capital improvements.

The thing is, supply and demand seem not to matter in the housing market. If you land on Park Place you can't shop around for alternatives.

This might be retconned by saying that most housing is occupied and that's where you found a vacancy, but it's still pretty artificial. If the other houses are occupied then why isn't anyone getting any income from them?

That is true, but the rolls of the dice still have vastly more influence on the outcome than the very limited decisions that players can make. In order to decide whether or not to buy Park Place you have to land on it first.

Not unlike real life.

Henry George was more or less opposed to our current conception of capitalism. He believed all land and narual resources should be held in common. He stated that a person should be entitled to the product of their personal labor and that was about it.

But being a practical man he realized the horse was well out of the barn on private ownership of land and felt that a land value tax was essentially the next best thing. He maintained collective ownership of natural resource beside land though.

Note that GOG is owned by CD Projekt, the studio behind The Witcher games and Cyberpunk 2077. So while they may not make much on GOG itself, they make a lot more money selling their games there then on other platforms like Steam.
This is poor analysis.

First, everything is a tradeoff. This article doesn't mention why they'd want to use UUIDs, so the conclusion is meaningless.

Second, the drawbacks listed are not valid if the database is designed correctly. No, you can't sort by UUID, but you don't need to. You can add a "created_at" column for that.

There are much better analyses of UUID tradeoffs elsewhere.
Which company? I hope we can US companies be proactive about this and not wait for someone to be infected.
Don't the rules of monopoly guarantee all players but one go bankrupt?
The difference being that GOG games do not need a crack, a client, or use any DRM.

The last part is the reason I buy from GOG instead of Steam. Also because I like oldies and GOG does a great job at making them work on modern systems (with notable exceptions) while Steam is more than happy to sell you a game that only works on Windows 98.

One particular case I remember was the Commandos series that Steam advertised at the time as Windows 7 compatible even if it was absolutely unplayable. I returned it and bought GOG's version that worked just fine.
Microsoft may not be any better, but at least they don’t pretend that they are after anything but profit. Google still tries on occasion to put a socially responsible, caring, small indie front, despite the fact that everyone should know better by now.

— I am making no judgment calls on the validity of profit motive, nor am I saying that Google is any more evil for having one. It is the blatant doublespeak about what Google is and does that grates my nerves.
And the 1,048,576 other coins who never tried to flip, because they knew that getting 10 in a row was just luck, will live lives of quiet desperation.
I've always used it as a business negotiations lesson.

The winner of the game is often the person who makes the most deals to secure the most property monopolies.

The KEY lesson is that you can trade "down" as the loser of every single deal, and yet still win by virtue of the fact that you've made the MOST deals.

Making deals captures untapped value. There's actually a LOT more strategy to Monopoly than the people in this thread realize.
> Why set a severity if you're not going to use it?

Your question misses the point entirely.

The point is that severity is an element that's used to classify an issue with regards to priority. Severity does not exist in a vacuum, and priority is given depending on context. Severity is an attribute, other attributes, that's used to determine the priority.

We have acute antiinflammatories for these cases. And they have serious side effects, especially treatments for asthmatics.

Now interesting part here is the mechanism which is different from the one targeted by current drugs.
1) One or more game-ending game states which may or may not also be win conditions for the person causing them, without any possibility for a player to be "out" before that.

2) Set duration (usually in rounds played).

Usually wins determined, in either case, either by "you were the first to do X so you win" or a scored resolution.

It's usually possible to be de facto eliminated in these games (anyone who's played much Catan has been there, to pick a familiar example) but the best of them keep that from happening until late in the game. Quite a few, frankly, do not do a good job of that but do make it hard to tell who's winning so at least you don't know you've effectively already lost by the halfway point of the game.

[EDIT] for an easy example many might be familiar with: look at most trick-taking card games, like Spades, Hearts, or Bridge. No elimination (unlike, say, poker), but you still get a winner or winning partnership at the end.
Cardano certainly has both a working mainnet and a working wallet, and has for a couple of years.

They are also running a testnet for their staking capability, which will promote to the main net eventually -- but claiming they're not running a live net and don't have a wallet is absolutely incorrect.

There is an "Anti-Monopoly" boardgame[0].

>Anspach created Anti-Monopoly in part as a response to the lessons taught by the mainstream game, which he believed created the impression that monopolies were something desirable. His intent was to demonstrate how harmful monopolies could be to a free-enterprise system, and how antitrust laws work to curtail them in the real world.

>In Anti-Monopoly II individual players choose to play either by monopolist or competitor rules at the beginning of the game. This version plays more like the actual Monopoly game in that it is based on the buying and selling of real estate. Among other differences, competitors charge lower rents and can improve any property they own at any time, while monopolists must own at least two properties in a group before building houses on them and charge much higher rents.

I've never played it, and I didn't like the cheap version I found at a store recently. But sounded like an interesting experiment. The reviews/ratings on BGG are fairly negative though[1].

Oh yeah. You are definitely right about that. I was just used to my well-known Macbook's monitor. You learned me a valuable lesson. Especially the pricing should be perfectly readable.

I just increased the font size of the dot. What do you think? Is it still hard to read?
Gog has a tiny fraction of all games on the market, much less the AAA ones that people are playing. Steam has ~all games on the market, and ~all of them can be pirated.

So it's not very convincing that Gog somehow has it worse or that there's some unique obstacle with Gog. Steam DRM clearly isn't the challenge people think it is.

Yet people still buy and refund on Steam.
We don't really have enough facts to be certain of anything, the uncertainty is what causes people to respond aggressively and worry about worst case. What we do know is death rates are around 2% which is a legitimate concern.

1. 4/700 is less than half the 1% lower end number that people are freaking about about when they say 20x more deadly than the flu.

2. All 4 people who died were in their 80s. Cruise ships skew much older than the general population, so there is limited information to learn from this.

3. If every single person who had cold or flu symptoms panicked and went to the ER, it most certainly would overwhelm medical systems.

4. I never said this wasn't worse than the flu, just that it seems likely that it's not 20x as deadly.
I like the simplicity of the layout, but I think one crucial data point is missing -- the price of each item that you're recommending!

At one point tobacco companies developed non-addictive cigarettes and kept it a secret.

Source: A long time back a friend of mine's brother was part of a faux-jury assembled by tobacco company lawyers to do like a focus group to research how real juries in some real trial might think/feel. They revealed all kinds of stuff to these folks. They made them sign NDAs, of course, but he told us everything anyway. That was one of the things I remember: they made non-addictive cigs and kept it a secret.
I don't really care what you call it, but Bernie's plans amount to nationalizing as much economic activity as possible, utilizing a command economy approach to provide goods and services, shifting responsibilities from states to the federal government, removing individual responsibility in favor of an endless number of "rights" that are to be provided by a federal bureaucracy, redesigning the thrust of our public policy to guarantee outcomes vs opportunities, and more.

Almost all of this is completely antithetical to our federal system, not supported by any generally accepted interpretation of the Constitution.

Anybody on HN who requires that someone "articulate .. concerns" about these things is terribly uninformed about the historic nature of these types of initiatives. I doubt that anything I could write will affect their thinking.

As for Medicare and Social Security and all the other federal nonsense, yes those existing programs are problematic. Almost every federal program would be better off as a state or private program.
