Ask HN: I work for AWS. How do I encourage change for Amazon warehouse workers?
Ideally without getting fired.

I've voiced some of my concerns to management but that hasn't gone anywhere. I know I'm not alone amongst my coworkers in feeling concerned for Fulfillment Center (FC, Amazon's term for their retail warehouses) employees. How can we in AWS organize and campaign for better working conditions for our FC teammates?

This is of course inspired by Tim Bray's recent departure from Amazon (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23065782). I'm a software engineer (surprise surprise) if it matters.
As long as there is a demand for American dollars from the abroad, US can print it. MMT says, exporters swap real assets with US dollars.

Is China/Taiwan/Vietnam interested in exchanging their exports with Zimbabwe currency? Zimbabwe's curry is not in a unique position like US dollar. No one wants Zimbabwe, but every one else wants USD.
if you strip out the periods, it’s still an increasing numbering scheme, assuming there’s fewer than 10 minor releases in a month, which seems highly likely.
Looks like, you have to select elements with data-id="8".
The default listen address is "localhost:2019", which means it'll only accept requests from apps running on the same machine. If you're running untrusted code on the same machine, then that might be problematic for you. You can also change the admin endpoint to be a unix socket instead of a TCP endpoint which allows you to use linux file permissions to protect it.
And how does that help? You're just sending anyone undesirable to prison?

How about, and this is a wild idea, we just require housing to be a natural right and we give people that?

Exactly. Fix that problem instead.

I knew these comments are racist dog whistles. It's so sad how San Francisco went from the cradle of counter culture to...this.
This line of reasoning assumes that the legislature couldn't have made up a third class of worker instead of lumping everyone as either an employee or a contractor. The courts cannot write law in the same way the legislature can, and so was much more restricted in what they could order. AB5 is just unimaginative.
Post was not very illuminating. Very little content. It's pretty much a "if musl is slow, it may be the allocator (eom)" which fits in the headline and would have saved me the click.
>The amount of misinformation, false claims and unsupported statements in this thread is mindblowing for the quality that I've been used to see on HN.

What if the assumed quality is an illusion and every discussion is actually as misinformed as this one, you just lack the knowledge to recognize it? Which doesn't have to be a bad thing since the signal to noise ratio on hn can still be better than somewhere else.

(There is actually a name for this idea, I am unfortunately unable to find it.)
They do refuse housing when it is being offered. In addition to this San Francisco does not cooperate with ICE to deport illegal aliens which make the housing problem worse.

Do you agree that if they do refuse housing we need to do something about it? Do you also agree that we should start taking action in making more housing available by at least deporting illegal aliens?

It is obvious by now - after 40 years - that the current strategy does not work, don't you agree with this statement?

Homelessness is not a "lifestyle", and it is quite rude of you to say that.

Also, in the US, a great amount of social resources are expended - albeit often indirectly or inadvertantly - to _encourage_ drug addiction. Aim for the social institutions that make the US the highest developed country in terms of, say, opiate use:

Can you make an argument for it? It kind of feels like a movie critic trying to explain why the Transformers are bad, even though they still rake in billions. If the Transformers changed to make the critic happy, it at best would have no impact on the billions, in all likelihood it would cause a regression, and so the critic needs an incredibly compelling argument.

In the case of Walmart, the issue is that Walmart operates at such scale, and can afford to take short term losses, allowing them to make the "volunteer" behavior of individuals in the community be that smaller stores go out of business, giving people few other choices as to where to shop and work other than Walmart.

> Well, it depends on your code of course, but pretty hard to proceed with some code that works with a DB when the connection can't be established, so proceed with what exactly other than error handling? Seems like a strange example. And as mentioned above, no (excluding optional pThreads) support for asynchronous threads in the language, so...?

What to proceed with? Well, any other code of course! Does all code in a current task depend on writing something to a database or reading from it? What if you need to get data from multiple sources? It would be stupid to wait for every single connection to be made sequentially, instead of proceeding with the next one.

This is just one example. This is actually what Node is often lauded for, making a lot of use of single cores, due to putting one "task" at rest and asynchronously proceeding with the next, not blocking.
I suspect dependent contractor and hourly worker would effectively merge. Both would get benefits if they work enough hours. The difference would be whether the boss picks the work hours or you do.

"even under a collapse we may be closer to ensuring basic survival and even comfort than immediately post collapse Russia"

One of Orlov's points though is that there is a difference in tolerance levels (i.e. Russians were more accustomed to hardships). Thus the question ought to be, even with an assured higher level of comfort compared to the USSR collapse, will people handle well enough a hypothetical US collapse?
If you mean historically, drivers have worked for both Uber and Lyft. I don't what would happen if they became W-2 employees. Being in W-2 sounds kind of like simultaneously working at Taco Bell and Burger King, running between restaurants depending on which has more customers.

Applying "illegal" to someone who is in your country without __papers please__, is just so astonishing to me.

Why on earth do you give a shit who lives where in the world? I've immigrated to the US, legally, gone through all the paperwork and expenses. I don't give a fuck if "illegal" immigrants exist.

I will continue to advocate for them and vote for policies that keep them safe.
I think it is important to separate different aspects of design. E.g. you can have a great user experience in terms of the users being able to fulfill tasks efficiently with an unappealing visual design, and you can have a visual design that alone evokes emotions in visitors, but the navigation is horrible and everyone gets lost. Or both, or neither.

If you look at minimalist, functional design in the "real world", there is often an enormous amount of work and many iterations behind it to get to that final stage where nothing more can be removed. It is not designers just not doing anything.

And at least from my perspective having a couple of iterations from the basic idea, is what sourcehut is missing.

My first impression opening the page and the screenshots is, that it is very messy and nervous. Even though on a a bit closer look the information structure seems to be well thought out. It could benefit tremendously from a designer going over it an making adjustments to typography and use of white space.

Not adding anything, no animations, no fluff, but tidy and straighten things up. Arguably on the website itself I would remove a lot. Should be way more spartan in my opinion.
This is quite a disappointment indeed. Turns out that compilers only use like 10% of the instructions in x86. While there are some efforts to fix this (at least for SIMD) with better heuristics, I fear that the best way to solve this might be to go with simpler ISAs and drive up the clock speed.
That is why I was concerned. But if you read through the technical descriptions in this hacker news discussion, some people say you are only verifying that the information in it is a valid and unique passport, effectively. I want someone with more information than me to state a definitive answer of the dangers here. Let my try asking the questions:

1. The user info that leads to that 'key' or hash, they get that name and number on the inside, and that's a hash to verify that its a passport issued by a real authority?

2. Isn't there a danger in leaking that internal information in #1? If there was no danger, then they wouldn't put it on the inside, right?

3, Do they have access to further information when they get that hash and verify what else is contained? Is this access to everything that is encoded? It seems not.

I think that you are leaking that information on the inside cover, that is of little use to outside people who don't have your passport. They'd know of your existence, and they'd maybe be able to use it if they ever got your passport? I don't want to speculate on important information like your passport credentials.
Because Linux is in most ways an ideal development environment for backend code that is going to run on a Linux server in production.
This is an important case for the future of the small business and bootstrapped startups outside of the sanctioned VC ecosystem. I know that my bootstrapped software company would not have made it without 1099s and multiple contractors. In the proposed regime, I would either have to shut it down or seek VC funding- but the market niche was not big enough.
Thanks, I can't access the archive.is or the main site, so even tho I prefer to read the source I can't :-)

I think $50/hr might not be enough. I imagine there are very few devs who could do this correctly, doubling the wage and halving the time would cost the same but probably yield better results. I'm not the one paying tho.
Ok, what are the API calls you need now, and would need to remotely inject faults? Can you make a HTTP server API with a client implementation for it so that we can just make implement the server API and point your test cluster to the nodes for automatic testing? I understand this would be counter to you making your living out of this, but think of it as a "light" pro-bono version!

Resources to Learn Python in 2020
Use space to separate sections:

Remove all the boxes and drop-shadows. They look very outdated. Use full-width for the hero and remove the whole box-shadow around the lower sections.

Now using space to separate the sections. For example, adding a vertical padding of 64px to the "We build apps" section automatically makes it look like a Stripe-like site. An example: https://onepagelove.com/smash-lite

Use bullet points:

On the "Are you still sending emails?" section just use bullet points. Remove the border and background color on that table with odd-even colors. And add actual bullets. You already used <ul> and <li>, now let people know that those are bullet points. Add some padding between each bullet point.

HTML bullet points already make it better to read. If you want to look cute, use bullet point images that catch the eye. Similar to how this template does: https://onepagelove.com/devbook

Use visual hierarchy:

For the section titles, use a larger font size, like 36px. Add some padding to the bottom to make it stand apart from the text. Users will use this to their advantage to scan your page.

You're already using bold for the bullet point titles, so you're aware that they're important. Make them pop more by putting the title in its own line and make it a bit bigger. I'd try to use less copy. Drop the effect that collapses the text when you click it.

Be consistent:

Designers are very consistent when it comes to spacing. Try to stick to multiples of 8px: 8px, 16px, 24px, 36px, 48px, 64px. Try to avoid using multiple fonts and colors for things that are in the same hierarchy.

I think you get the gist. Alternatively, just get a free template like the ones I linked, it's much easier than designing things from scratch.
Ooh, good observation. I never really thought about how many problems I've had explaining why I'm lifting something or how it makes things better.

No of course not. But AB5 was not the right shim.
>I wonder if most developers that trash on PHP for trivial issues like seen in this thread haven't been using it for many years, or had a bad experience (e.g. maintaining a legacy app).

I wouldn't be surprised if many of them don't even have that experience. I've found a lot of people just parrot whatever someone else wrote or said without much thought. The tribalism within the development community is approaching what you'll find with in gaming, sports and even politics.
[pg 39] "From now onwards space by itself and time by itself will recede completely to become mere shadows and only a type of union of the two will still stand independently on its own."
Has all that paid off for you? Are you seeing any alpha based on strategies you've developed?
With the implicit grant? I read the RFC recently and thought it was only for the Authorization Code grant.

From https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc7636

"OAuth 2.0 public clients utilizing the Authorization Code Grant are susceptible to the authorization code interception attack. This specification describes the attack as well as a technique to mitigate against the threat through the use of Proof Key for Code Exchange (PKCE, pronounced "pixy")."

At the end of the day, no matter what the grant, if you store the access tokens (or refresh tokens) in the browser running an SPA, it is vulnerable to an XSS attack, right?
Yahoo! doesn't have data for delisted or bankrupt companies, a "survivorship bias."

You need a set of companies that lacks this bias, and the set of Russell 3000 index constituents is a good set to use.

Some of the older Russel 3000 companies will be missing from Yahoo, because they are delisted or bankrupt. You need to find a secondary source for them, or "back-fill" your securities master.
> I think Python and C are simply a must, whatever the language you use in your daily job and whatever else you might want to learn. You cannot seriously call yourself a programmer if you are afraid of C, and Python is too useful as an ad-hoc tool to be ignored.

I haven't ever found Python to be useful since I started program. Perl, Bash, Ruby, JavaScript, etc. work equally well for one off scripts and Haskell works much better for mathematical calculations. For large programs I would never consider using Python. Maybe if I did machine learning my opinion would be different.
Show HN: Package-sorter, Sorting a group of packages that depends on each other
Absolutely. A good book that I read a few years ago is The Charisma Myth by Olivia Fox Cabane. The premise of the book is that you can learn to be more charismatic by working on your mind to cultivate greater confidence, greater warmth and compassion towards others and a greater ability to focus and really pay attention to people. The book presents a lot of techniques to help you do this and I found it to be quite accessible. My life is an awful lot better than it was before as a direct result of my having read it and having worked hard on the exercises that it taught me and I'm very grateful to the person on Hacker News who recommended it to me.

Someone always says this, but its an emotional, irrational non-argument and hard to respond.

Your argument is that someone unemployed and starving found a job where they could feed themselves - but its not a good enough job? What exactly is your argument?
Whenever I start up Firefox it tells me to wait a few moments while it updates. The browser obviously doesn't care about me. It has its own agenda. This is why I won't use it.
They have an interest in stopping scammers, and hate speech, racism, etc. In a pandemic they have an interest in stopping extremely misleading and destructive information. Should you be able to ask other people to hurt someone, to find out where there house is, to encourage people to hurt others? I think not. The challenge is always what is the line between complaining that xyz is a terrible person, or lying or a politician, how to separate people my clearly irrational or misleading statements.

I really think Neil Stephenson captured this brilliantly year ahead of time in his idea of the Miasma.
Some research done on the subject:
https://pavelfatin.com/scrolling-with-pleasure/
“Briefly stated, the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect is as follows. You open the newspaper to an article on some subject you know well. In Murray’s case, physics. In mine, show business. You read the article and see the journalist has absolutely no understanding of either the facts or the issues. Often, the article is so wrong it actually presents the story backward—reversing cause and effect. I call these the “wet streets cause rain” stories. Paper’s full of them.

In any case, you read with exasperation or amusement the multiple errors in a story, and then turn the page to national or international affairs, and read as if the rest of the newspaper was somehow more accurate about Palestine than the baloney you just read. You turn the page, and forget what you know.”

– Michael Crichton (1942-2008)
Gell-Mann Amnesia Effect. Is the word you are looking for.
I don't think that's a relevant part of the consideration process. Open source is not a security strategy. Breaches happen at companies who open source their software too.
You know, actual databases are something you can "glue" onto a Python infrastructure.
Those jobs aren’t coming back for awhile yet, regardless.
Is this really true or did Tesla just batch all deliveries together and unload a ship of Model 3s to claim they had the best selling vehicle again?
I'm in the same spot. I still use & love Rails, but having adopted TypeScript & VS Code (w/ React) for the front-end, I find myself missing those luxuries when I switch back to Ruby/Rails/Vim.

I'm leaning towards a full TypeScript stack for my next project. The idea of sharing types & code between client & server is incredibly seductive. But there's no Rails for TS/Node, so I know it's going to be a shit show assembling all of my chosen libraries into a cohesive whole.

Although looking at your previous comment, perhaps I should give Kotlin / Ktor a try?
Sweet! Thanks for pointing me at that. I have applications where I might be able to use that anyway (PS4 comes to mind).

You get rid of illegal immigrants on the street and you won't move the needle on crime. Listen, I'm not interested in you blowing my money on vanity projects.
Agree with you generally, but NA is a religious missionary program, where the treatment/process involves worship or reverence of supernatural entities (a god / higher power).
You are aware of the long term support firefox esr, right? Because the existence of that invalidates the "only the latest gets security fixes!!!" argument.

Yep, the companies’ ability to distribute the workload doesn’t get as much discussion when these kinds of proposals are thrown around, but that’s exactly what gives them so much leverage when trying to determine how much value to extract from the system.
