Why is it good ? So that your country thinks they can "win" a nuclear war ?

In a perfect world there wouldn't be any nuclear weapon. But in our imperfect world I'd rather have MAD than some yahoo thinking first strike is a good idea because they think they can stop the opposite side from retaliating.

It doesn't, it's only for verifying that the thing is what it was when hashed and not who it's from. The funniest part of this discussion to me is that we're now discussing features of a, say it with me, a package manager! Only now we get to add them by hand.
This is not indentured servitude and such agreements are actively used today.

Yes. It's normal in a highly volatile situation to put handcuffs on immediately upon detention, even if it won't ultimately result in an arrest.
These... actually worked for me. I've been getting fed up with Google getting worse and had been intending to set my default search to DDG, and seeing the billboard was enough of a nudge to make the switch on my phone.

I had tried out DDG before, but the combination of Google getting worse and DDG getting better has passed the tipping point - I wonder how many other people will do the same.
Honestly as a piece of reporting I don't think it could have possibly gone better.
Just watch the video; it was a live broadcast of the whole encounter. They were told to move, asked where was OK to move, the cops didn't give an answer (ostensibly communicating with superiors over radio), and then they were simply arrested.

There's no additional facts here.
That's not "whatever they want it to mean". That's industry standard terminology. And it's not all low-skill positions. A friend of mine is a PhD optics researcher and he was a Google contractor (the employee of a third party kind) for a few years before moving on to an FTE position elsewhere.
I think New Territories is the lions share of the geographical area of modern HK. If UK had not transferred the other smaller areas in 1997, it would be the UK that would be in trouble, holding on to a small untenable piece of territory (Since the territories not under the 99 year lease are dependent upon the New Territories for many essential matters.)

Yep, this is it. They're developed by the same team, Temporal is still beta but I believe the production version is coming out late-June.

I can't find an easy way to explain everything it does, but it pretty much allows you to write naive functions with no error handling, with month-long sleeps, auto-retries on unreliable function calls, etc etc.

It also gives you a web interface when you can inspect the running functions, and allows for external code (and other workflow functions) to signal/query the running workflows.
I recently started investigating Airflow for our use-case and it seems exactly what you describe and not more. But in it niche it excels featurewise, at least regarding the features I need to expose to the users.
>it is too risky for a restaurant to donate

No it isn't. It's perceived as too risky but that perception is demonstrably false. I've provided solid proof of this and you've provided nothing.

>They haven’t been sued because they don’t typically do it.

You can keep repeating the same things over and over all you want. But until you back it up with supporting citations it appears you're just making things up. Statistically speaking, if X00,000 restaurants and stores are doing it today without being sued, it's pretty safe to say it will be similar for X,000,000.

>But the way things stand now, you can’t in good conscience tell a restaurant to donate food without an intermediary organization in the area, and even then it’s risky.

Show me anything (tweet, blog post, whatever) from an actual lawyer or legal organization supporting this opinion and I'll donate $25 to the Food Bank of your choice (I'm serious).

I've provided legal support for my side of the argument already. It's your turn.

The thing that's so infuriating here is that that you're exasperating the problem you claim to want to solve. People scan threads and see this myth repeated so it reinforces their misconception about the matter.

Not only are you not helping, you're actively making it worse. Shame on you.

Pianos are weird.

The lowest notes, generally have one string that makes the note.
The middle, have two strings (persumably to make it louder).

the high notes have 3 strings per note.

So sometimes playing one key is actually playing three tones.

I totally agree with you there, buuut, before this release VSCode on a Surface Pro X would be Electron running as a ia32 emulated app, which is not only web technologies but also the wrong ISA.

I'd love to have sublime text, textadept, or any other real native editor running under ARM64 on Windows but so far they are not available. This VSCode is the first editor shipping ARM64 binaries, even if Electron stuff.

Also it is important to notice that many developers using that machine are using the ia32 version of VSCode and this version will benefit them (and it more native to the platform).
There's a book called Don't Sweat the Little Things and They're All Little Things, or something like that. My in-law gave it to me thinking I have anxiety, but I don't. I never read it, but maybe it could help.
Can you expand on that, or give references/examples?
I also find the API to be more consistent on Temporal (I began implementing a project in Cadence before finding out about Temporal)

There's one by us and my wife and I were talking about it the other day while stopped at a light...I'm not sure who the target audience for the billboard is, honestly. There's no mention of what DuckDuckGo is. In tech circles it's definitely more of a household name, but to the wider public I wouldn't expect anyone to have heard of it. The call to action is also a bit vague, and doesn't really do much for a layperson who doesn't understand the extent of the tracking, who is doing it, why it's harmful, etc.

Their original billboards from years ago apparently said "Google tracks you. We don't," which is a much clearer and at the very least positions themselves as a privacy-focused Google alternative.

(this is the billboard, for reference: https://twitter.com/DuckDuckGo/status/1266003050151411713/ph...)

You can’t sue for discrimination or wrongful termination.

You are not protected by the WARN act.

There are more but that’s just off the top of my head.

If there wasn’t a difference,
companies wouldn’t do it.

Remember, they have to pay these people more money than they would for a direct hire because the staffing agency takes a cut of their weekly pay.
I would recommend Laravel or even Rails for a beginner over Flask. Again, with Flask I was re-writing and implementing things I didn't need to. Like hashing passwords. Or building user scaffolding. Flask fans will argue that you can do all of these. Yes...but you probably are grabbing some module and reading the docs and then messing around with it for a while. My forgotten email system in flask was a celery task running in a sidecar container and using an additional redis container for queueing and grabbing that job. In laravel that looks more like one command. `php artisan ui vue --auth`. Maybe there is a better way but I found myself struggling for a lot. Yes I didn't need to use psycopg2 and make nasty raw SQL calls because SQLAlchemy exists. SQLAlchemy isn't built in though. Django has a lot of these features and much of flask's attractiveness is in being light-weight so I guess it makes sense. Today, I'd say for solo-founders, try out Laravel > Rails > Django > Flask > everything else
I try to block all the web fonts I encounter. A lot of UI symbols aren't rendered which amusingly sometimes results in overlapping text descriptions. I just can't stand looking at certain fonts or ligatures and refuse to let a website decide how it renders text.
Courts are normally extremely deferential to law enforcement. Coupled with the fact that increasing oversight or increasing restrictions on law enforcement leads to a barrage of "soft on crime" political attack ads, and you get what we have today.
I was going to say, we covered this recently.
I think contracts come with clauses that enable either party to give notice and terminate the contract. As to whether or not you get 2 or 3 times the FTE that is highly variable. You wouldn't necessarily know what the FTE rate is. Typically you would see an advert with a specified rate, be recommended or brought in by someone already there. Either you would be made an offer. If you like it you go for it.
>> Every traditional diet had an adequate amount of animal fat, either in meat they ate, raw cheese, or raw whole milk.

Why the stress on "raw" cheese and milk? Heat-treated milk and dairy have the same amounts of animal fats as raw.

Edit:

Ah, I see:

The [Weston A. Price ] Foundation is an advocate for the consumption of unpasteurized milk, or raw milk. One of its goals is to remove health regulations requiring pasteurization of milk products, so that raw milk can be legally purchased in all states. Supporters of this campaign believe pasteurization removes or destroys beneficial parts of raw milk, leading to a less healthy product that is associated with numerous diseases.[14]

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weston_A._Price_Foundation#Act...

So the foundation named after the author of the book you discuss supports the idea that drinking raw milk is beneficial to health and that pasteurised milk causes disease.

To clarify, is this why your comment is talking of raw cheese and milk? Do you also believe that raw milk is healthier than pasteurised milk?
Also in SL, if they could replace the Banjo billboards that'd be great.

"This man is Black, therefore he is the enemy", probably.
I guess as I've grown older I've grown wary of black-and-white thinking. The insight I would share with you is to be wary of Bisquick, but do not dismiss it outright. All creation is combination, and you won't succeed saying no to all combinations. In the same way, you won't succeed saying yes to every combination.
I was royally confused because I thought 'billboards' was some alt tech jargon I wasn't familiar with in relation to geography. But no, literally billboards, go figure. I haven't seen one yet but thats pretty cool
Fun fact: Montana is the only state that bans this.
I have absolutely no hope for docker support on OSX, let alone iPadOS
Yes it is. Pasteurization destroys the nutrients and beneficial bacteria. Raw milk from healthy cows is a probiotic like yogurt and extremely health promoting. People that are supposedly lactose intolerant are often able to drink raw milk after an adjustment period, probably because they improve their microbiome. See https://www.realmilk.com/ (one of the good things the WAPF has done) and the book "The Untold Story of Milk" for a fascinating tell-all,including how pasteurization was initially used because producers were spiking milk with chalk and embalming fluid and literally feeding dairy cows shit, public health officials had no other way to control the milk supply.
And there's a reason for that, it's so simple but it works. Get a shared hosting for $3/mo, add WordPress to it by uploading a zip with cPanel and you're done. It's cheap, you never touch a line of code, there are premade resources for most niches (themes/fully fledged apps and platforms) and tutorials on how to do even the most basic things.

This works great for small business owners, web agencies and professionals (which is the majority of the people who actually need a website). When self-hosting you also have a sense of ownership and power (and you actually have them) compared to using dedicated platforms such as Shopify, Medium or Wix.
Why are you responding to me like I expressed some opinion that you disagree with? I was just providing clarifying context.

Because we have decades of it being political suicide to not be "tough on crime".

Obviously cops only act in good faith, so any restrictions on them are restrictions on getting criminals off the street.

It's mostly familiarity. I was working on AWS as an infra guy and doing a lot of docker stuff. Python anywhere looks cool but I still wanna manage my servers. I'd prob go digitalocean or similar if launching today. (with my containers ofc)
And then 130,000 contractors to eat through before getting to the 100,000 employees.
As a kid, kind of ate whatever, including sugary foods, but I'm not from the US so back then I think I ate less sugar than Americans just as a function of how much sugar there is in American food

Nowadays I try to avoid eating added sugars (i.e. drink my coffee black, no soda, rarely eat deserts), but otherwise eat regular food and try to eat "real meals", like my grandparents would eat when they were my age

Is this list public?

I would like to take a look on it.
I really enjoy both the Economist and the New Yorker. They tend to take very different stances on the same issues, but both have really excellent long-form articles that I enjoy. I also recommend hobby magazines (like Shutterbug or Adventure Kayak) that fit with your interests.

But they are supposed to give you 2 weeks of pay. I prefer to get the cash and have 2 weeks, at home, starting the full time search for a new job. Instead of having to show up for 2 weeks while knowing that I will be gone in a few days :)
"closure is a poor mans object and an object is a poor mans closure" is true in principle. Devil's in the details. If the language forces the declaration of the object equivalent of a closure in a different scope, or even a different file, then massaging captured variables by hand, it makes objects a whole lot more laborious to use, especially for those using rapid iteration to get a feel of the design space.
This is a wrong way to prove your point because we don't know how many tweets and accounts were actually taking down for threatening violence.
I've seen these in Sweden. I think they are bad, because they say nothing about what the service does. They are all very vague and require you to know what the heck they are talking about like "Tired of being tracked online? We can help."

How am I going to go from just that message to knowing that it's about a web search engine that does not track me?

"Search the web without being tracked". "Privacy-first search engine". Say something like that instead, maybe?
That's amazing. Of all the horrific thing people post to Twitter all day long, a vague statement about Palestinian independence is the "best" whataboutist comparison Trump could find to match his own threat to open fire on the country he is sworn to defend.
I think he would have done so if he could. In the end the US president has a lot more power then president's in other democratic counties but still he's constrained by the law.
Shouldn't your tag line be "The Form Backend Built For Developers", with "built" not "build". And a little more unsolicited feedback: the rendering/display of code example under /How It Works/ looks kind of sloppy -- I think it might actually look better when JS is disabled. Similarly, not a big big fan of the fullwidth Codepen embed.
> "In my personal opinion, I can deliver the same quality of education online as I could in person."

Although this statement is debatable to begin with, it also misses a huge point. Even if the quality of an online education is the same, many students cannot learn as anywhere near as well in that environment. They paid tens of thousands of dollars for in-person learning, so for that to be replaced with something entirely different in form really sucks.
Yes but do the KMT want it recognised as 'Taiwan'?
I can't tell who needs who more in this symbiotic relationship.
This is not surprising. Clearly the police of Minnesota are not well trained and are not in an environment that promotes serving the people.

It is terrible, and should not happen, but until the police culture of Minnesota changes we should expect more of the same.

The Culture War in Open Source Is On
What happened to Floyd is horrible and police abuse is a real thing. I never understood why police officers in the US have no common sense. I recall many incidents where they shoot and kill people trying to escape (so no threat to them). I'm happy the public is doing something about it.

However, I'm also annoyed by the stupidity of many people who blindly yell racism. Not so long ago there was a naked black male (Harvard student) walking down the streets of Cambridge, MA. Police came and arrested him. He refused arrest so they have to use force, but it was reasonable force required to arrest someone who is refusing arrest. People filmed the incident and next day many accused the police for racism. WTF!? I watched the film and there was nothing out of the ordinary. We should support good police officers and not assume all are bad and racist. They risk their life to defend us and our communities (white and black and everyone else).

Any modern pipe connecting consumers to producers is going to rely on some sort of matching algorithm to map the two. If they just used some sort of dumb FIFO -- user retention and advertising dollars would disappear.

Like it or not, there are political ramifications in that algorithm no matter how hard it tries to be neutral. Even platforms that stay 'hands off' are shaping content and it's almost impossible for them not to while retaining what we've come to expect from a modern platform.
Perhaps a recently discovered phenomenon.

This only works if officers only ever give orders for good reasons. Oftentimes they give orders as a pretext to arrest you for noncompliance.
Maybe it's not legally necessary, but consistency is good for user trust. Plenty of things are legal that are still bad for business.
It's probably public since he knows their salaries. you can get a hold of most college employee salaries through state ran databases.
Reminding people that took a paying job out of a need to get paid that they should expect to be treated as less human than full-time employees assumes that they are somehow unaware of this. Every contractor I've worked with in the past 5 years clearly understood the fragility of their situation, while the employees working with them often did not.
Note also that 24 hours usually doesn't include Sundays and holidays, often Saturdays are excluded as well. Meaning if you get arrested before a long weekend it could be 4 days before anyone legally has to consider releasing or charging you.
But you’re not car shopping and this isn’t a Ferrari vs. Corolla scenario.

If you read the article, you’ll see that the Universities did give partial refunds. These students are demanding even more refunds, while still collecting the education.

The education is still delivered, just through a different medium.

It feels like HN is picking and choosing when remote is good vs. bad based on how it personally benefits the commenter.
Yeah, imagine the hours of productivity that will be lost as people in the US update their link to Google in their IE6 "Favorites" list, because that's how things work in the real world.

Convincing someone to not start believing a conspiracy theory is easier, which is the point of these efforts. I point out conspiracy theories when I see them, not for the benefit of the conspiracy theorist who spouted them but for the benefit of the person who reads those conspiracy theories and the debunking later.
The difference is that contractors can be removed from the company without any action on part of the employeer. If an employer wants to remove contractors one option they have is to do nothing and let the contracts expire. They cannot do that to an employee. They must explicitly tell the employee that their employment is being terminated.
This how Donald Trump won in the first place. People just won't learn. They can continue bubbling themselves by losing the next election too and get shocked.
