There's plenty of laws out there that are wildly unpopular and only exist because the people who make up the legislature wants them to even if the people represented don't. Legislatures can get away with doing this because no one law is enough of an affront to enough people to justify voting for "the other party".

Most laws making moderately dangerous things illegal or hard to get fall into that category.
Easy Ways to Send Form Data to Google Sheets
It's actually relatively inexpensive to move gear via cargo container. I'd hazard you could move all 10PB of the Internet Archive for less than $25k-50k in shipping costs (~$2k per 40FT container), with labor extra for loading and unloading. (Disclaimer: I have coordinated data center migrations in a previous life)

Although, it's probably more financially efficient for other nations to offer cultural grants for local IA non-profit entities to spin up infra in country and begin mirroring the South SF location.
> Selling proprietary software for money is a lot less immoral than using free software to sell user data for money, or using scale to run roughshod over regulations which seems how a lot of software engineers are ultimately paid these days.

You imply that immorality cannot be avoided, so let's accept it. According to your reasoning, some people are killers so lets close prisons.
They usually don't even get charged.
As those release notes mention (and the new ones do too) you don't get a TLS 1.3 API

So you only benefit from features that already existed in TLS 1.2 (using the same API) or do not require an API such as the reduced round trips for initiating a new connection.

In particular you can't use 0RTT "Early" data because the specification asks that only be supplied via a dedicated API in both clients and servers.

The reason is that Early data might be replayed by an attacker in some cases despite all practical countermeasures and so your application software needs to make an explicit decision about whether it's acceptable to use Early data. Providing a separate API forces you to actually confront that decision and not get surprised by upgrading to TLS 1.3 and finding now you're subject to a replay attack.
I only ever seem to see this argument as a justification for censorship that has already occurred, as in I was “just doing my job” and following the rules on what we’re allowed to think. Where do I cast my vote that I think this kind of moderation is inhumane toward all participants and that I would prefer to participate in communities where we discuss things instead of supporting the chilling effect of Zero Thought Tolerance?
As someone who uses OpenBSD on a few machines it strikes me that this is going into OpenBSD's -current branch so won't be released for another 6 months, with OpenBSD 6.8.

As I parse more and look at the libressl site I see that similarly, this is a development release and the stable release, 3.1.2, matches OpenBSD 6.7.

>The MLK quote is trotted out pretty often, but "a riot is the language of the unheard".

Trotted out by ignorant woke dummies. In his 1967 Stanford speech MLK also says: "Let me say as I've always said and I will always continue to say, that riots are socially destructive and self-defeating. I'm still convinced that nonviolence is the most potent weapon available to oppressed people in their struggle for freedom and justice."

Using MLK to defend or advocate violence is astonishingly ahistoric.
Lasers. This stuff may be necessary for a new class of weapons. That is the reason for all the speculation.
> Saturn V could lift 140 tonnes to low earth orbit.

Just to be pedantic, remember, that the only thing Saturn-V brought to LEO and left there was Skylab, with mass 77 tons. Other than that you counting parts of Saturn-V itself as part of payload, which is inconsistent - you don't count mass of Falcon-9 second stage as part of payload, for example, even though it gets to orbit.

Saturn-V is better characterized by the mass it leaves on translunar orbit, which is 48,6 tons. For LEO it's awkwardly lopsided with mass of 3rd stage and remaining fuel.

In other words, if you have a 140 tons satellite, you couldn't get it to LEO with Saturn-V. So the comparison is wrong.

We would be a lot better off if this term went away.
It's worth noting that on Linux it's slightly different because most of the popular libraries can be installed with the system package manager (no problem of dependency management, updates, ...), I rely on alternative solutions only when I want to use a version of a library different from the one shipped with the package manager (which is not that frequent with fast paced distros like Fedora) or when the library is not packaged.
Ah sorry that's unclear, I meant I thought that book was really good for, "just learning more about the craft of programming in general".
MacOS Is still much cleaner though. 99% of apps only put some config files in my ~/Library folder (and homebrew can easily remove them all with the 'zap' command). On Windows, I always don't understand what the heck happened when I installed a program and the whole registry thing is just garbage. The other day I uninstalled "Everything" but it was still showing up among "start-up item". I had to go hunting in the registry to make it disappear.

I try to use Scoop whenever I can exactly for this reason: I want to use portable apps every time it's possible, they're just cleaner
Right, I asked. And they literally laughed at me, which is what I expected.
The protests started in earnest May 26 and Derek Chauvin was arrested and charged May 29. The Minneapolis PD third precinct building burned on the evening of the 28th.

The other three cops who helped to kill George Floyd have not been charged or arrested. Neither have the men who killed Breonna Taylor. That's hardly the limit of police violence that has gone unaccounted for. At this point it’s more of a protest against police brutality than just the one specific murder. So, no, not pointless.
Qualified immunity has become a get-out-of-jail-free card for law enforcement.

I believe it's the primary reason for the complete apathy law enforcement shows towards de-escalation and self-restraint in general.

Why bother behaving when the standard for prosecuting you is so high as to be laughable?
> Once the UC system said they weren't opening back up for physical classes in the fall demand for places near campus dropped considerably.

You've been given bad info. The UC President said all campuses will be open in the fall, in a hybrid mode. Berkeley's Chancellor has said that labs will be open with restrictions, but most likely lectures will not.

That of course could change.

One of the properties I manage is in Berkeley. I just renewed the lease in May, but I put in a clause that allows the tenants to cancel if classes are cancelled. They wanted to make sure they had housing secured in case classes came back. I also told them we would reduce the rent in the Fall if necessary.

As a landlord, I'd much rather have renters at a reduced rate than none at all, even if that rent is near zero, just to keep the place occupied to reduce crime.
It’s weird in the UK. I think framing it as a £50k (ish) loan is bad but also the loan structure is bizarre. It’s basically a tax on being a graduate which for some reason is higher (over the 30 years you have it) for people who make a medium amount of money than for people who make a smaller or higher amount of money.

Ultimately it doesn’t particularly punish people for getting a degree which isn’t worth much because if their degree isn’t worth much then they are less likely to have to pay much of the tax. And I think people are still statistically better off going even if you take the tax into account.

I find it weird because I can’t work out what it is trying to punish. At least with income tax there are arguments that better paid people are able to contribute more and so they should. But with the student “loans” it seems like it’s trying to discourage people from getting a degree which confers them a moderate advantage in income. It doesn’t seem to discourage degrees that are in some sense not worth the government’s money. I guess one way to look at it is that they wanted something that looked like loans but wasn’t burdensome and also had an interest rate that wouldn’t go to 0 if the base interest rates were very low and that’s how we ended up with the system.

It’s also means tested which seems fair but I think can be quite hard for the families on the various boundaries.

Do you know what proportion is vehicle debt? If it's 90%, then you have a point. If it's significantly lower, then it's certainly questionable.

Also, why redeem strategic debt due for 2021 so early?
That's what worried me about it...having to move my head too much in order to see the screens. I have big lenses that let me use my peripheral vision naturally.
Camouflage is just one of the potential hypotheses out there, and the one with which I am least familiar. There are ideas about increased social-cognitive abilities in girls, allowing more effective masking/adaption. But it can also be the case that it is not merely camouflaging symptoms, but actually neural adaption and compensation that reduce or even eliminate symptoms. It could be that girls receive more social support than boys, and the one thing we do know about autism during early childhood is that early behavioral interventions can improve quality of life outcomes.
Based on your comment and some of the other ones on here, I looked this up and it looks like the original meaning of “working on a tech problem in a different way than what’s outlined in the manual” dates back to the 1950’s.

Tesla plans to manufacture their own battery cells with ~0 cobalt. Given the growth in Tesla sales (cars and stationary storage) and their willingness to be "master of [their] own destiny" (in battery production), I wouldn't worry about cobalt shortage anytime soon.
I'm not sure that's true. Membership in a terrorist group is specifically mentioned on their list of ineligibilities.
> Selfishly

Not to pick on you cause I agree, but I feel like this is a problem with a lot of analysis of this phenomenon. A lot of people really really really hope this happens and the growth of megacities reverses. WFH/Remote job growth is the mechanism they are counting on because outside the cities there is so little economic dynamism, outside of a few firms in a few locations that are almost the only game in town.

At the end of the day, when this is all over, companies are going to want to have their employees in the office, especially as tech jobs become more and more commoditized. My guess is in five years you're gonna have superstars that built insane resumes the past 15 years living wherever they want but the vast majority of tech jobs will remain in tech hubs.
Not really: they're safer at work than you are at home. Police work is very safe in the USA. But it can be very unpleasant and stressful.

The idea that policing is inherently dangerous is most useful to police when negotiating the next contract.
I think his concern is the amount of money from political campaigns this coming season. If that stuff was fact-checked, they would not be making as much money.

The side effect of people internet hating on stuff on FB is lots of ad revenue for FB (aka page views). It doesn't matter what side is what, if things on FB are fact checked then there is likely going to be less sharing since there would be less content.
Are bundler, rvm, and rbenv not as confusing?
> Landlords are very reluctant to lower rents, because with the statewide rent control that limits increases to 5% a year, we're incentivized to keep the rents high and give months of free rent, just so our base rate doesn't drop.

God what a short-sighted policy. Not that I expect rent control to go well but that's nuts.
The danger of violence is exactly that it's effective at producing change. People are much more willing to consider police reform than they were last week - but they're also much more willing to shoot thieves and deploy the Army than they were last week. The police reform message is not guaranteed to win if the dice don't fall correctly.

Is it possible to use Solid with just plain JavaScript/TypeScript (like using createElement with React)?

Google will give a relative measure of how busy the space currently is but doesn't give an exact number or a sense of how full a location is relative to any temporary capacity limits that might be in place.
1992 LA Riots caused over a $Billion in damage and 63 people died. Given that the scale of those riots far surpassed anything we're seeing now and given that nearly 30 years later another instance of police brutality preceded the current turmoil isn't it clear that your approach has failed?
If most of the debt is in the cars and the used car marked is dry, why Hertz failed to re-negotiate the loans? Or has they entered bankruptcy to put extra pressure on banks?
The drooling part is that those batteries could be much less damaging when discarded. Even more, in a coastal area or a ship the danger of those batteries eventually ending in the water could be practically negligible by comparison with any traditional battery. And if done just with NA would be basically non poisonous for humans if reaching the food chain or water supply.

It they really work is a good leap in the right direction.

We must remember that some forms of NA will explode in a fire ball in contact with water.
For my small bootstrapped SAAS company, I would love to have ex-founders as employees. Because I want entrepreneurial people who know how to look at the big picture. I am not in a situation where I have to go back to being an employee myself but if I ever do, I am sure there will be small companies like mine where that experience is respected and is considered a plus.
A border agent alone cannot rescind a green card (although there have been cases where they've tricked non-native English speakers into signing forms that do rescind them: https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/jan/30/trump-travel...). At worst they can let you in but send your case to an immigration judge who might. But the judge is an expert in the law in a way the border agent is not.

I agree. I would love to do more. The truth is there is just so much to do. It's hard to find a balance between writing cleaner docs and say solving Async Hydration with Suspended Components. I had the luxury early on to prioritize the latter which is why Solid is so feature rich given how much of it needed to be researched and built from scratch. I always knew it would catch up with me. But that's a good problem to have.
Thanks. I will think upon this.

Imagine working in an organisation with such a culture. People trying to screw each other over left and right.
What's surprising about that? I'm actually asking, not trying to provoke.

There are four years of precedent of the leadership specifically and intentionally dividing and radicalizing the nation to directly drive electoral support to maintain power. Cruelty to outside groups is historically a very effective means to consolidate power. This is completely in line with past behavior and will more than likely continue.

Because it works.

It also increases the likelihood than someone will be “engaged” enough to forward the link into virality, and thereby increasing traffic.

Those which does not do this will be ignored and replaced by those who do. The data used in this project have been available to everyone, and many have undoubtedly done presentations about it. Have we seen those more reasonable versions here on HN or as viral features on social media? No. Because they’re not interesting enough. In order to be noticed, you have to crank your interestingness factor to the max.

ZeeWise | Atlanta/North GA | Software Developer | https://zeewise.com/ | USA REMOTE | Full-Time

ZeeWise is a very small software company that provides data aggregation and reporting for the franchise sector. We've actually been around for over a decade and have some very well-known customers despite our modest employee count. I'm one of the original tech founders and just took over as CEO. We're beginning the process of overhauling our product/tech stack.

We are looking to hire Software Developer(s) to tweak/update/transform our somewhat legacy platform into a more refined and scalable product.

Our stack is .NET (C#) and MSSQL with AngularJS (moving to Vue) on the frontend, however we're essentially rethinking everything so convince us why we should switch to your favorite stack instead of optimizing what we have.

Right now we're prioritizing for an experienced front-end dev that is proficient in VueJS/React. I'm personally partial to Vue because of the easier drop-in to a legacy project however there is no denying React's popularity (for good reason). That said we're primarily interested in finding quality team members since we're small and any new addition is going to be fundamental to our future.

Our platform has a lot of moving parts and though we are open to junior developers we're too small to be a training grounds/stepping stone position where you'll be compartmentalized to one tiny aspect of the product and playing foosball most of the day. We're ideally looking for senior/experienced devs (dare I say "full-stack") that are excited and confident about making systems architecture decisions that will have immediate real-world implications for tens of thousands of small businesses around the world. If you're junior but are confident in your abilities this might be an incredible opportunity and definitely don't be afraid to reach out.

We realize it is (despite COVID) a competitive market out there and are definitely prepared to pay competitive salaries for the right people no matter what level you're at (junior/mid/senior $80k-$150k+) and we're also prepared to negotiate ownership stakes/substantial stock. As mentioned we're a small team and all have a very healthy work/life balance and a relaxed but productive work ethic.

If you made it this far and are still interested contact us at hackernews@zeewise.com
A world of their own. When daydreaming becomes an addiction (2016)
That's true. The only forcing function I know is that if these companies grant RSUs to employees, they end up in a situation where they either sell/go public, or the employees with RSUs start going a very long time with no liquidity. Now, you can definitely choose option B but then you've got a talent and morale problem on your hands. The RSUs don't disappear after employees quit like options do, so the golden handcuffs aren't as tight.

(This isn't quite true for options, because companies can issue tender offers or allow the shares from exercised options to be traded on a secondary market. This can allow for employee liquidity without the company going public. RSUs have a double-trigger vesting structure so they don't vest until IPO or liquidity event.)
