I really enjoy real markets. They can be found in many parts of the world including in developed metropolises, and still existed in many places in the USA within living memory.

Their illegalization and displacement by supermarkets has been at least partly a deliberate political choice, and I don’t think it’s an inevitable part of modern life.

(Working as a vendor in a market stall is not necessarily a great career though.)
Ask HN: How could publishers monetise torrents?
Are there any business models that might enable publishers, and thus content producers, to make money from torrented media?

Ignoring the argument that “no brand wants to be associated with torrents” which while significant, doesn’t address feasibility.
This feels like the best advice in this thread.

Two questions:

1. What are your refresh tactics and any advice for what makes a good refresh?

2. What strategic advice would you give for preparing for that mid-life break?
It seem like an illustration of the power of reciprocity in social psychology.[1] You give something away for free and then those who took what you gave feel obligated to give something back to you.

I sometimes wonder if those who give away their book for an email would get more emails if they would first give away their book and only then ask your email.

Anything that will block the server. Fetching data from an external API, doing some kind of expensive computation, sending an email etc. You can either handling this Node style with blocking i/o, throw the work onto a background queue like Sidekiq, or use a language with first-class concurrency support like Golang or Kotlin. To me Kotlin feels like a far nicer and more scalable language than Golang.

I have to ask ...

As an adult, what's the appeal of watching WWE?
No, they aren't allowed to hand over data on EU citizens either, that would break GDPR. USA wouldn't go after them for this but EU definitely would.
There is a switch on the keyboard interface card inside the ][+ that allows you to toggle between requiring CTRL be held down, or just pushing the reset key.
I would assume that this was added later, and wasn't available on the earlier models.
I'll concede that PHP focused hosting solutions such as your traditional shared webpage hosting environment is better at hosting PHP than any other language, and sure there are less services out there that lets you deploy code "as easy as PHP".

I had to check and I'm paying about 4$ a month for a traditional PHP server host vs 5$ for a VPS which I can run whatever I want on.
And if you want a barebones deployment for lets say rails, what is stopping you from just copying files over with scp and running bundle and rails s from the shell. Then only thing that makes this harder is having to kill the server and restart on deployment. I dont find that to be that much harder.
Compile to Javascript, and compile to native binaries supported by the core language team.
You make a valid point. And I believe open office spaces are wrong for the same reasons that I believe agile is wrong: both assume that all work is fundamentally similar.

When I call someone and in the background I can hear 20 other people talk, I immediately assume that the person I called is not considered important in his/her company. Because high-level work needs uninterrupted quiet time.

For agile, it's similar. When you stop having different roles, then you implicitly assume that your lead architect and your junior trainee can do the same work, albeit at different speeds. If your architect has useful experience, that's an insult. Or it means that your entire product is simplistic enough to be built purely by trainees.

So both open office and agile effectively reduce your programmers to expendable grunts.
And malaria reemerged elsewhere after DDT was banned around 1973 thanks to Rachel Carson's book. A professor of pediatrics summarizes how millions died as a result and how WHO reinstated DDT in 2006.

But history has proven this wrong. e.g, how did the entire German population wilfully engage in something that they now consider very wrong and ashamed about (WW2)?? (Quite a generalisation I know, but it's an example of a lot of people going along with something they may not entirely agree with, not comparing Apple to the Nazis BTW, nor am I saying that every single person went along with it).

I am merely saying that if it is possible at a national level, it is possible at a company level. If it is a culture where you work you can quickly become swept along with it.
From a business perspective this might also translate into lower development costs and easier access to talent.
I don't find it weird. It's basically the smoothing effect of very large numbers which is what statistical analyses depend upon. If you wrote two new very different apps, then you may find different "steady state numbers". The more niche the app the smaller the numbers and the more "hair on fire" the target need the larger the numbers. It's actually a rather well known dynamic in marketing. That's why they use certain words to capture attention.
"Vastly superior" how? I can have those features with a tool like deployer (written in PHP) and the only dependency is SSH.
Kotlin is really a fantastic language even without IntelliJ but with IntelliJ it makes these older languages feel archaic. Once you've had this level of explicit typing & null checking, code navigation, and refactoring that really works its very hard to go back.

Kotlin also feels like a pretty safe bet since both Google & Jetbrains are backing it.
I've seen a few portals (Like Heroku Dataclips / Metabase) which offer this.

That said, I shoehorned it into my daily routine otherwise I'd just end up not checking it for a few weeks at a time.
Goebbels might want to have a word.
Running a Tor relay (Liberation Day special)
Wait, Go hasn’t had any revolutionary change since it arrived 10 years ago. It is still basically the same language/package. I’m not saying that is bad, but why does a language need to be constantly revolutionary if it solves what it sets out to solve well?

Catch up to other languages? You can easily argue the opposite, that other languages has finally catched up to PHP, ease of deployment, ease of horizontal scaling, fast reload/build time, built in string templating, simplified variable syntax (auto, var), etc

I can go on, but if you already framed the question to the disadvantage of one party you will not really get a fair answer.
I like the idea, but typically at home when I start giving out weekly allowance "for free" (to our teenager), the quality of mandatory house chores diminishes very quickly! :D
I winced reading this.

I normally write down what I think needs some feedback then leave it until the next weekly 1:1. I think sleeping on something like this leaves me in a much better state to deal with in a reasonable way.
What if you’re looking for a great way into .net web dev on Linux? I’ve been struggling to find a good guide that combines dev env, deployment and a good web framework. Any advice?

I have quite a bit of xp with Python (Django/flask) and less with php.
I think GitHub isn't trying to push the marketplace as hard as they were a year ago. I suspect the success of GitHub Actions makes the whole marketplace a bit of a risk they'd rather not waste time on.
I was always curious why Paulo Coelho's Alchemist became a worldwide bestseller and last week I finally read it.

It's a self-help book disguised as a mystical and easy to read fairytale that most people can somehow relate. It's not the best self-help book I ever read, it's not the best fairytale I ever read, but the result of this mix is brilliant. Most people love it, some people don't understand it and some people don't want to understand it. It definitely worths a read.
"PHP is losing because of its maturity"
Yeah but it is still Palantir, so maybe don't trust the government's judgement that much.
Back in the days of AOL, before phishing became mainstream, it was all about getting the leetest screen names or wielding power over inferior "hacking" rivals. One of the easiest ways was to befriend college kids who worked as CSRs and eventually extract enough info to call in and reset the password. That eventually stopped working so well when AOL added auditing to their customer support activities. History repeats itself!
German constitutional court wants ECB 'to conduct a proportionality assessment'
Were they aware that the process was convoluted, or did they simply not realise how obtuse they were making it?

I have worked with people who "designed" terrible systems or couldn't see that a system would never work, yet still attempted to operate it. It was like they were unaware of the dysfunctional state of it, yet it had to exist because their job was to "design".
Amazing. A pretentious, emotionally-manipulative version of "if you don't trust closed-sourced public corporate #43214 you're basically an anti-vaxxer!" is the most upvoted comment in this HN thread. Hilarious
On the subject of 'privacy issues' it's slightly ironic that a privacy issue in this document is that it's a Google document, which can deanonymize anyone looking at it if they are signed in to a Google account. (Or even potentially signed out).
I was once at a tech conference for high schoolers in London where one of the distinguished speakers (others included Vint Cerf, and a UK government minister) told us that the primary reason the sun is hot was because it was still glowing with heat from the pressure of gravitational collapse.

I think their claim was that the nuclear reactions in the sun contributed to the Sun’s radiation, but did not contribute to the bulk of the Sun’s temperature (heat?)

I’m a little fuzzy, but I’ve never seen this claim elsewhere. Is it true?
It is like that right now in many small villages in Italy, Spain, Germany, and possibly other places I haven't visited.

This overwhelming sense of anonymity is in my opinion typical for US suburbs and US mega shopping malls.

Most other countries have smaller and more intimate town squares, optimized for waking rather than driving.
Could someone explain how the new APIs that are being proposed by Google/Apple will actually be delivered to Android handsets? I'm running a 2 year old Android device which generally gets security updates 2-3 months behind Google devices. Will I be at the mercy of my phone manufacturer before I'll be able to use the new Google/iOS apps?
I think the Icke conversation is the best modern example of that. After his stream was banned London Reel, the youtube channel hosting it claimed that after the removal, they were able to crowd fund their own live streaming platform. They also hosted another Icke interview on it that they claimed attracted over 1 million live stream viewers.
I think it's more likely that this is based on this decompilation someone did rather than the source leak, so hopefully that's less legally shady and we will see a repo or blog post soon.

The technical aspects discussed are slightly wrong because they are different between iOS and Android.

>The NHS has insisted its engineers have worked around this problem "sufficiently well" by waking the app after it detects itself running on a nearby phone emitting an ID: the software is blocked from sending out its ID when in the background but it can passively listen for IDs of apps still allowed to broadcast. However, this assumes there are a sufficient number of phones running the tracing app nearby still broadcasting to keep enough people's apps awake: there needs to be a critical mass of users while we're all supposed to be socially distancing. If two or more people pass each other and their apps have stopped broadcasting, the software will never know they came in contact.

Bluetooth LE has four main states: scanning, advertising, peripheral connection, and central connection. In order to exchange the data that the app needs it needs one device in the peripheral connection mode and the other in the central connection mode. This means one device must have previously been advertising and the other scanning. The two important states are advertising and scanning.

Android devices can advertise in the background but they can't scan reliably, they can do this for a short period of time enforced by the Android time limits on apps running in the background and possibly manufacturer specific power savings measures. These limits are not well documented and cause issues on any device using Bluetooth.

iOS devices can't advertise in the background, however they do advertise an Apple specific advertisement which can't be controlled by the app but can still be connected to. iOS devices also can't reliably scan in the background however they can scan more reliably for iBeacons (special adverts) [1]

Combined this makes it difficult to work well in the background, Android devices can't reliably connect to any device, iOS devices can't connect to each other but iOS devices may be able to connect to Android devices.

In such a manual workflow ("you can SSH a file into a server"), you still have to setup at least URL rewriting in nginx for any PHP app using routing (which is basically everything using any PHP framework or micro-framework).

Plus if the deployed app has its own domain/subdomain, you need to set that up, set up TLS certs etc., so it is really no different in the end. You either configure nginx to proxy all requests for some domain to an index.php file, or you proxy them to a locally running container (where you also don't have to worry about versions of software installed on that server, clashes between different apps, etc.).

Commercial PHP webhosts also have an "installer" for automating all of this, provisioning databases, etc.

A lot of this can also be automated by various Kubernetes controllers (DNS configuration, TLS cert provisioning, databases, volumes, backups, monitoring etc.) if you already have a cluster. And for packaging installable apps, there is Helm and its charts (e.g. https://hub.helm.sh/charts/bitnami/ghost), you can also manage them from a GUI dashboard (https://kubeapps.com/) or even from a git repo (https://argoproj.github.io/argo-cd/) if you want to have a repeatable history of all changes to the environment, updates, etc.
This is very close to what I was looking for, thank you!
I'd say just try Rails but honestly it's a few months commitment to become productive, just like I can't jump into Spring and expect to appreciate it right away.
people make fun of php all the time... just see the comments in this thread.

people forget though that wordpress, drupal, joomla and magento are all written in php and most likely accounts for 70% or so of all the websites online today.

php is going to be around despite all the negativity and fanboyism of other languages. you can't go wrong with knowing php if you always want something to fall back on if you need a job. while coding wordpress websites isn't the greatest job in the world, it is a job and be thankful for that especially during these times.
How is it "around the corner"? While having been enthusiastic about Hanami since Lotus times, I cannot help the feeling that it's more or less completely stalled at the moment. Sure, the non-functional alpha of Hanami 2.0 has been released some time ago, but nothing really happened since then (except from releasing hanami-api out of the blue). There is no timeline and Trello board seems to not be in line with state of PRs for Hanami 2.0.
Not definitive but I think they push APIs out in Google Play Services, which is a big blob of an APK. They did this a few Android versions ago so that they could bypass the lack of OS updates from manufacturers.

I love this. you nailed it. modern tech stack is so bullshit. I won't mention the framework I detest most because that would be flame bait, but this.
> why does a language need to be constantly revolutionary if it solves what it sets out to solve well?

That's a very big If in PHP's case.
I like this about PHP, you don't have a callback hell. I don't disagree with you just sharing my experience here, we might work on different kind of problems.
Having worked for clients from SV, Japan and a few European countries, including my own, I would guess that it's not tech in general, but SV and VC culture that's the reason here.

Case in point: no other crowd is so accepting of using drugs or other substances to increase work performance.

Yes, there is coffee as the most common of such means, but funnily enough I had to ditch it cold turkey to keep up with these people, because improving my sleep quality instead was more effective.

Bottom line is SV offers more reward, but puts more pressure so it's not for everyone - especially not for me who loves his job, but certainly isn't married to it.
Innovation and creating new things, were ever just a side-effect, to a game of dragons entrenched in castles with treasure. Only if they could loose there treasures and castle, would the dragons, with the last gems buy a chance for a new treasure and castle.

The bigger the hoards and the bigger the castles, the lesser and lesser these chances get. Inside the castles, the same game, but with even less interest to become subversive.

The truth is, that tech never was about innovation. It was about beeing a aristocrat with other means. The rest is decoration, flowers, girls and pretty pearls.

Now stop moaning, and go back to hoard shoveling.
Slaves you have been and slaves you always will be.

If your village is outside, mining gold, in the hope to be eaten by the dragon.

Or if you live inside a castle, doesent matter.

so is PHP worth learning right now? and what is the job prospect looking like? if I study the language for the next few months what is the lickely scenario I will find a career in it.. I actually enjoy and like PHP unlike other people idk what it is about the languauge it looks fun and enjoyable to play with . Plus it's simple and easy opens doors to more complex languages later on down the road
Well I have just finished a sub-optimal color implementation with also my own print() implementation in https://yourlabs.io/oss/cli2 and I'd be willing to throw another week at it, but didn't really identify how rich could help exactly, if you want to open a ticket there then we can start a discussion

Keep up the great work
Aren't there a zillion online services that provides that product out of the box, most likely for free, only requiring a browser and some monkey clicks around? -> No PHP, HTML or web server.
> I don't think fewer people self-host. There are some going to big clouds, there are some using integrated offerings like squarespace, but there are still many hosting their website with a regular hoster. And probably in total many more than in the past.

From my experience, the share of people who can only deploy PHP is steadily shrinking. PHP remains the default, and popular, but easily deploying other languages is becoming more feasible, and we're shipping docker containers with Python/Go/Node/whatever code a lot more often these days.
What if that request was a document upload and your system is calling out some external api or processing for long enough such that you’d rather return now and update later when the job finishes. Maybe through Ajax or a redirect.

The shenanigans that WP plugin devs go through to get around the lack of a queue is ridiculous (chunk the file and keep reloading the page until we’ve processed all the chunks or have an Ajax endpoint that processes a chunk at a time...) and the when I asked a marketing friend of mine who works with Wordpress he said that redis is an “advanced requirement” and I should keep things simple.

In Django land I’ve always set up queues even just to send emails because it keeps things snappy.
How has turning to God changed your life? Did it change what you do or how you view the things you do? In other words, would your life look the same to an outside observer but there has been an internal shift in your mind?
What about non EU citizens? Do you think NSA won't try to get the realtime location of EU and nonEU politicians? They can claim is for national security, would GDPR stop that?
I strongly disagree. I don't disagree that human mind is limited by metaphors. I disagree that it applies to this situation.

Before you know about radioactivity and nuclear reactions the only options available were:

1. Try to find reasonable explanation using scientific explanations (chemistry at that time) and try to calculate the possibilities.

2. Leave the question undetermined.

3. Wildly speculate without any constraints. (God or some magic force).

Science was limited by data and experiments.

I hope you like working on legacy projects full of spaghetti code.

Preventing the same discussion from taking place again and again and again does help keep the lights on though, and putting things in writing helps with that.

As does having the original reasoning for why things were done the way they were three years ago, when there's a new feature request and nobody is left of the original team.
Actually a personal friend who is a doctor on the frontline in Paris saw mobile morgues back in late March.

So I am capable of personally falsifying your statement:

>But the response in New York (with mobile morgues) wasn't reported anywhere else.

I lack a citation but I'm not really trying to prove anything either. I don't think New York is isolated. Lombardy seems to be stricken pretty hard, and it's hard for us to know what it was truly like in Wuhan.
yeah definitely, but it would still be nice if workers would be treated more equal no matter their profession
OT: someone close to me never tastes the food they cook, I can't understand that. You don't know how long to cook it, or how to season it, or if the balance of sour/sweet/salt/umami/whatever is right at the point you can fix it ...

But that's more an analogue of "use your program before you release it".
but literally, why not do it for work?

burn down everything that's best practice, kiss, and build from scratch.

are modern engineers so retarded they need a gazillion lines of abstraction, bloat and opinions to not turn a team project into an unfrickable mess?
I keep hearing this, but 85% occupancy isn't some magic number. If occupancy is 66% instead, they can put their prices up 30% and realise the same revenue. Prices fluctuate way more than that anyway and oil prices (the biggest marginal cost) are at an all time low.

Airlines are in trouble because they can't run as many flights and they have significant fixed costs: leasing planes, servicing debt, payroll costs. Not because the flights they do run will be less full.
