Which standards are they not using?

>Must buy adapters

It was this way shortly after the migration from DIN to PS/2 keyboards, and also shortly after the migration to USB, and also shortly after the removal of floppy drives, and so on. We complained back then too, but each migration was worthwhile in the end. USB Type-C is what USB should have been, but the tech wasn't ready yet.

You mean mandating the inclusion of "Sign in with Apple" in some App Store apps?
There are two types of noise being served here

The advertising
The tracking

The tracking is being used to:
tell advertisers how well their advertising is working
tell the site how well articles are working
give unscrupulous sites the possibility of selling that data to others, which are probably advertisers but maybe other companies.

As far as the ratio of advertisement to content this https://www.editorandpublisher.com/news/higher-ad-to-edit-ra... regarding that ratio in newspapers assumes 60 / 40 where I believe the 40 is supposed to be content (although I find the wording not 100% clear)
Something else I think you're indirectly hinting at is that revelations like the one in the original post - White Nationalists posing as Antifa - can be bent by bad actors as an excuse to claim that all anti-fascists are white nationalists, instead of being correctly observed as fascists trying to undermine anti-fascism. In effect, even after being exposed Evropa was successful.

Perhaps more telling/less nit-pickable is when you modify the function to be

float hn_demo(float a, float b, float c) {
a = a + b;
a = a + b * c;
return a;
}

and let the compiler actually optimize with -02.
If you're a spineless liberal governor/mayor who ultimately supports the cops, but you need to save face, then the outside agitators/white anarchists/Russia narrative is a godsend.

No. Without the second amendment, you are dependent on police for safety -- so dependent that there is little you won't put up with.

With the second amendment, you can simply fire the police without (as much) worry for your family's safety. It would still be bad, but at least you have an option.

So it's not necessarily a violent confrontation. You just get a mayor in place that will stop paying them. A large group of people can often get a mayor to do something if they have a specific proposal.
That's fascinating, do you have any references that discuss this? (preferably in English to avoid Google Translate)
Ironic that the GOP are so opposed to an ideology dedicated to being against fascism.
Most of our sense of taste comes from smell.
No I just meant that the government sets the standard for what qualifies as a library. I'd have to take a trip to whichever city IA is based out of and check the public records to determine whether or not they've filed for library status.
Do you believe in an "eye for an eye"? If not, how could you say that there's been more violence from police than protesters? By my count, more people have died in the resulting riots than the initial incident.

That doesn't mean police are "less bad". It means they fucked up badly, and then rioters and looters are responding badly to a bad situation (including with attempted murder, rape, assault, property destruction, arson, etc).

In fact, numerous businesses owned by black people were unfortunately torched during the rioting. What part of that is justice? Further, what good does it do to black neighborhoods to have their houses burnt down, critical supplies interrupted in the middle of a pandemic and other such egregious behaviour?

Anarchists are using this situation to cause chaos and destruction.
Antifa is not a single organized group, it's anyone who is anti-fascist. So there is no 'real' antifa groups. The police don't have a very good track record releasing truthful information regarding these events, so why not chill out before drawing your own outrageous conclusions.
OneNote's Linked Notes Taking does exactly this. You can combine it with the "Dock to Desktop" / Docked Window feature which makes it hijack a part of the desktop space (to the RHS, typically) so that you can continue to take notes while reviewing stuff on the LHS. The window on the LHS can be another OneNote window (or one of the other Office applications), and as you type in the RHS, docked window, sentences are automatically linked to the page and line on the LHS.

Unfortunately, I didn't find a single video showing the power of both Linked Notes AND Dock to Desktop, but these two show the usage of these features separately:

Apparently that's a very small number, so that anecdote is irrelevant.
It's also a popular way to claim that your locality has no issues - nobody would be protesting or rioting if not for Those Agitators, nobody is actually upset, etc. "A riot is the language of the unheard".
OTOH, these kind of titles actually attract me to the articles in the areas I have very little clue about. They give me the impression that authors have introduced the subject matter in the most accessible ELI5 style.
So true. It's just an attempt to control the storyline. PR 101. And when their political opposition has a peaceful protest or gathering with a few rogue individuals (or actual fraudulent hired "actors" in some cases) then they label the entire group bad.

Now, I don't think the bulk of the looters are bad people. But to change the narrative to be anything other than a REALLY TERRIBLE PR move by young people being opportunistic is absurd. For the truck driver who was beaten, the MSM were calling the violent protestors brave.

It comes down to this - are you helping the cause or hurting the cause? Only delusional, heavily-biased people / social justice warriors think looting is helping the cause and they're making every excuse under the sun. To think that humans, by and large, will look past it (for right or wrong) is out of touch with reality.

And if you criticize the means in any way, you get attacked even if you support the same change. In my opinion, to suggest that young black people are so pliable and incapable of thinking that some posts by a rogue group would turn them into robotic looters is racist in itself.

Young people semi organized and did some dumb stuff and justified it because of rightful injustice. Are they bad? No. Was it wise? Of course not. That's what happened.

Outside of that - I've been involved in a coroner's inquest before as my jury duty and it was very interesting. You basically are tasked with deciding whether a death was homicide, suicide or natural causes. I've heard about these civilian oversight boards as the answer but they have challenges with "local political manipulation" and require "steep budgets for investigators" [1]

So from my coroner's inquest experience, I was thinking - you already have civilians. It's efficient. If an officer is involved and the coroner's inquest participants rule it to be a homicide - boom, you could mandate an automatic trial!

This seems like it would be easier to roll out, more efficient, and provide pure accountability to any officer involved shooting. They'd know they would be legally required to go to trial if the coroner's inquest ruled a homicide.

Certainly, some evidence could still be tampered with by the powers that be, but that would elude the civilian oversight boards too in those cases. And with body cams, social media and business and civilian cameras, it's gotten much harder for them to hide evidence. So if you have an easy path to a trial originating from jury peers after coroner input, then you have a ton more accountability.

ICE cars lose a lot of the energy stored in gasoline to waste heat, especially in city driving.

That's to say nothing of the challenge of generating gasoline from solar energy.
Please point out exactly where I justified police behavior or said they're all innocent, or downplayed the initial incident. I saw the video, it's disgusting.

But torching a residential building with children inside as a response? How is that okay?
It would be fair to say that there are anti-fascist groups - many of them. It's just utterly non-factual to claim that "antifa" is an organized group, let alone some sort of terrorist organization. At best it's lots of small organizations with some common goals and iconography, and many of them have differing opinions and practices
Do you know how they decide if someone is able to start reading quickly? Personally I find asynchronously loading ads around the text so distracting that I basically can't focus on reading until it's done loading so for me I basically need to wait for the whole site needs to load anyway. In the same vein, I would prefer Google down score all sites with anything but entirely static ads.
> but that isn't really true. google gets ~80% of the searches on the web.

Not every destination started as a web search.

Case in point, the list of links on this very site that we're all commenting on. This discussion didn't start with a google search. Google was never involed at all. Not everything on the web goes through google search. Nearly all searches go through Google, but there's a hell of a lot more to the web than searches.

As also evidenced by some of the largest & most visited sites driving a ton of non-search traffic - like reddit. And facebook. And twitter. And etc...

They tried to capture Warsaw. Budyonny's thugs were brutal as well. But it is interesting that somehow Budyonny managed to be a hero in the end after technically losing the war.

Another aspect of course is that it set the stage for Russians try to "recapture" Poland, and made a deal with the Nazi Germany to "split it" between themselves in 1939. That's when the Soviet secret police committed a lot atrocities there.
We were doing crosscut shredding - to the point of practically atomizing the paper - then incinerating the shredded material in the military before the Shah fell, at least for Secret and above. If the CIA wasn't doing that, well, that's their own lookout.
Am I misunderstanding Poetry? Because it seems to me more suited as something for packaging your python code up ready to be pushed to Pypi? As in, starting up a project creates an init.py, and a python file referencing distutils: neither of which I need or want to do if I'm writing an app to go into a docker container.

Not at all interchangeable.

The lifecycle of ferns is a bit exotic and familiar.

It's classified as alternating between two generations, the one which produces the familiar large plant, and one that produces tiny plants.

It's something like "sexual reproduction with extra steps".

The fern chops its genome in half and produces spores with these haploid genetics. The spores grow into tiny plants (< 1 cm) which grow leaves and roots and then produce the sperm and/or eggs (the sperm actually swims to the egg!) which fertilized, grow into a new familiar fern.

In flowering plants, seeds are the result of fertilization which happens in the plant, they're bigger, contain food, and protective shells. The living cells which carry life are hidden inside. Pollen is a bit like a spore in that it's tiny and contains haploid genes, but still I'm guessing that process of reproduction is considerably more durable to increased UV.
Not to be snarky, but I can tell that you're active on Reddit, because every third person in discussions like this proffers Popper's paradox.

This is, at a high level, an idea that we can all get behind. What rational and decent person can condone intolerance? But, just like hate speech, 'intolerance' can become very subjective very quickly.

Thought experiment: imagine politician X tweeted "[i]n order to maintain a tolerant society, the society must be intolerant of intolerance" in response to a supposed war on Christmas or war on white people.

EDIT: Instead of just downvotes, would appreciate substantive comments on where my line of thinking is wrong. Thanks.
I'm sceptical about this article. I think author contradicts himself at a time, and certain ideas aren't well presented (like, coding is not syntax, unless we disagree on definition of "coding"). While at the end author talk about good values, somehow the subject is viewed in harsh light.

Coding, like reading, shouldn't be forced blindly. But that doesn't mean parents, who're literate, shouldn't be also familiar with code.
I rather would point out management. This is what changed in this timeframe.
Twitter and Facebook are clearly not like newspapers though. So long as you agree that it would reduce his reach, you agree with the point I've made here.
I recently stumbled upon [0] this quote from Walter Benjamin:

> Und heute schon ist das Buch, wie die aktuelle wissenschaftliche Produktionsweise lehrt, eine veraltete Vermittlung zwischen zwei verschiedenen Kartotheksystemen. Denn alles Wesentliche findet sich im Zettelkasten des Forschers, der's verfaßte, und der Gelehrte, der darin studiert, assimiliert es seiner eigenen Kartothek.

My translation:

> Already today the book, as tought by academia, is obsolete as transmitting information between two card file systems. Anything of substance is in the Zettelkasten of the researcher, who wrote it, and the scholar, who studies it, assimilates it in his own card file.

I recently studied both Zettelkasten and Build a Second Brain's P.A.R.A note taking methods. They share some core principles but BASB seems much more practical for most people

The biggest difference was that Zettelkasten required a ton of work up-front, which made it nearly impossible for me to stick with it. BASB on the other had was more Just-in-Time based which makes it much easier to stick with.

I compared the two methods here:

Who claimed "antifa" is a singular organized group?

The KKK has multiple independent sects and semi-decentralized governance, but that doesn't mean "KKK" doesn't exist -- it refers to all of them collectively.
its even more pitiful how many are cheerleading this shit on HN
I agree. Tried the service a few times and didn't keep a single item. A lot of their recommendations were actually from their own Stitch Fix clothing line, which felt like at best Gap quality for Gap full retail prices.
That's pretty much what mugshots are. Companies already slurp up those mugshots and publish them and extort those arrested to pay to take them down.
Antifa is not anti-fascist. In fact they are themselves fascists. A fascist is one who uses violence for political means. That is exactly what they do, as can be seen on TV for the last 7 nights. They are more properly anti-capitalists.

And they are a highly organized, though decentralized, group, again as can be seen by the multi-night multi-city violent display they have organized and perpetrated.

Did you read your own link? Deplatforming has been used for decades, by the right wing as well as the left:

> The University of California, for example, had a policy known as the Speaker Ban codified in university regulations under President Robert Gordon Sproul, mostly, but not exclusively, targeting Communists. One rule stated that "the University assumed the right to prevent exploitation of its prestige by unqualified persons or by those who would use it as a platform for propaganda." This rule was used in 1951 to block Max Schachtman, a socialist, from speaking at the University of California at Berkeley.
But for this they depend on a lot of (expensive) ground infrastructure, that is not available on roads.
I believe the parent comment is referencing the 2017 Berkeley incident where a professor ambushed multiple conservative and libertarian protesters from behind, hitting them in the back of the head with a bike lock.

This is a pretty astonishing insight! @themodelplumber1 do you have more information about this? Either a blog post you have written, or a book you read (or wrote!) on the topic?

Edit: ... and I checked out your profile and bookmarked your blog in my feed reader. Awesome!
Interestingly, the same thing happened to me when I was designing my note-taking system. I made most of those design decision only to find about Zettelkasten later. It definitely feels like it is some sort of design space minimum.
Why do you think this would change much? For example, Akamai already has servers onsite with virtually every major ISP.

You are attempting to put a positive spin on their behavior by calling them protesters.

No. They are rioters and looters, and guilty of aggravated battery.

This has nothing to do with race. It has to do with behavior.

I tried Zettelkasten a few months ago and I found a lot of what you said to be true. It also has a serious upfront labor overhead that really makes it hard to stick with.

Then I discovered Building a Second Brain and it's P.A.R.A. method which was like Just-in-Time Zettelkasten and it's suddenly become a cornerstone of my productivity routine.

>This is a misconception I hear from folks who never planned to own one but not from owners.

And it's a misconception that Tesla happily took advantage of in their marketing for years.

Their autopilot webpage used to be titled "Full Self-Driving Hardware on All Cars". The marketing copy said stuff like "all Tesla vehicles... have the hardware needed for full self-driving capability at a safety level substantially greater than that of a human driver."

They neglected to mention that the software wasn't at that level yet, which I think is incredibly misleading since the hardware by itself is useless (and without corresponding software, it remains to be seen if the hardware they are using actually is capable of full self-driving)
> however, it was too late to stop the nearly two-ton sedan traveling at reportedly 68 miles per hour.

Its interesting how the brakes get pumped hard by the pedestrian and let go as he passes him. Willing to bet somebody looks at the data and finds the driver was overriding. I don't own a tesla but I do own 2 cars with forward collision detection and braking. Its pretty scary when your car makes a lot of racket and you look up to see something like a guy in the road. Kind of startles and distracts the mind in ways where I could see somebody focusing too much on that to see a box truck in the road.
Surely a Tesla has a front radar to measure distance though, no? If it's rapidly approaching to an object that's not moving, who cares what it looks like?
According to the block, apt will be setup to block snapd from being installed. If I'm reading that correctly, Mint has taken that freedom from you.
The point is that an order to siege an American city would not be unlawful, under the Insurrection Act, because there are parts of the Act that give a lot of discretion to the President about when to use force. That siege order could be legal.

At that point, disobeying has to be a moral act, and the law isn’t a concern anymore.

A person so inclined can still order interoffice routing envelopes ("hundred milers") from most stationers.

Looks like you’re saying that developers can’t discuss priorities with management.

In some companies this might be true.

But in many, when a CTO or a senior dev demonstrates business value of a speedy website, it would get attention.

I’m sure project management doesn’t care about keeping packages up to date either. But most devs can successfully communicate that this is necessary and that the alternative is way worse.
