I'm not sure what you mean by "two imports".

If you define your Enum subclass in the same file, you use one import for enum.Enu. If you eschew enums and use Literal, you use one import for typing.Literal.
The police often aren't under anyone's control, Republican or Democrat. (Side note: The claim that MN has been under Democratic control "for decades" is simply false. They had a Republican governor as recently as 2011; their current Senate (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/91st_Minnesota_Legislature) is Republican-controlled; the previous legislature (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/90th_Minnesota_Legislature) was entirely Republican controlled.) They successfully resist oversight and efforts at reform in a variety of ways.

> A New York City Police Department union known for its controversial attacks against Mayor Bill de Blasio tweeted out the personally identifying information of his daughter on Sunday night, including a residential address and her New York State ID number.

> Lynch’s most infamous comment, the one that many believe set New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio running scared from the cause of police reform, came after a man shot two NYPD officers in Brooklyn in 2014. The slain officers’ “blood on the hands starts at City Hall in the Office of the Mayor,” Lynch said. The PBA president blamed de Blasio because the mayor acknowledged, in the wake of Garner’s death, that racially disparate policing exists in New York City. Cops subsequently turned their back on de Blasio at the slain officers’ funeral, and the mayor has sided with the cops ever since.

> But to understand why the mayor does what he does, one must understand what he’s up against. On Monday, The City reported that since 2015 the PBA has spent upwards of $1.4 million on lobbying and campaign contributions. In addition to conventional political advocacy for their interests, as City & State noted in a 2019 cover story, “the cops also have the power to undermine a mayor by refusing to do their job.” In December 2014, when Lynch blamed the two officers’ murders on de Blasio, NYPD officers made two-thirds fewer arrests and wrote 94% fewer tickets than they had during the same period the year before. The PBA has also moved to block new policies intended to increase transparency and accountability, for example by suing to prevent the release of body camera footage.

The person in charge isn’t in charge of the cities or their police forces. We could ask what prior presidents did to help solve the problem. Under years of a Democrat congress and presidency, there was exactly zero reform.

The cynic in my thinks that certain politicians actually like these sorts of problems so they can string together some words that convinces people that they have to vote for them. If everything was great, there wouldn’t be much incentive to vote for the opposition.
10 years is very optimistic.

Uptake of IPv6 is so random and haphazard from one country to another. In Romania (RDS), I had IPv6 on my fiber connection already in 2010. In Poland (Orange), even in 2020 you can only get IPv6 by specially enabling it in your router’s settings by an undocumented trick, but then the ISP issues a command to your router every 24 hours to drop IPv6 and go back to solely IPv4.

I know if you ask some ISPs how you can permanently enable IPv6, the response is that you need to upgrade to their more expensive business plan. (Surely no one would need IPv6 unless they were running a server, and residential plans aren’t for running servers). Consequently, some ISP seem to feel a financial incentive not to give out IPv6 addresses, and the pessimist in me says that they could continue dragging their feet for these next 5 to 10 years.

There's intrinsic satisfaction in optimising on a closed problem.

Speedruns might seem pointless, but they provide that satisfying closed problem.
This was surprisingly awesome.

There's a "battleship" like game in Zelda that is "required" (I guess) to be won three times in quick succession for a complete speedrun. Trying to get three wins in a row is too slow, so they developed a method that uses knowledge of the random number generator to find the answers.

The method is, as I understand it:

* The seed for the RNG is fixed (RNG is Whichmann-Hill with a seed of 100,100,100, apparently)

* The RNG is used throughout the game and is called upwards of 5.5M times before they get to the "battleship" challenge, so there's a bell curve distribution on what state the RNG is in by the time the player arrives at the challenge

* The bell curve is too wide to effectively be used to narrow the search down initially, so a few "battleship" games are played (and lost) to guess the state of the RNG

* From the last step, this narrows the search down to a few "key states" of the RNG, each with their own bell curve distribution of what state the RNG is when next used to create the random mini-game

* A new distribution 'heat map' of possible ship positions is generated so players can have an increased probability of solving the puzzle

* Each subsequent guess and/or win give more information about the RNG state to effectively narrow down the search

The key point here is that the RNG is used throughout the game, with an unknown number of calls in between when it's being called for the Zelda mini-game they're trying to win.

Since the method is out of game (as in, not reading memory from the game, using only input from the player out-of-game), it's allowed in speed-runs, much like consulting a web-site with a tech-map or other quick calculations to help the player in game.

I'm no expert but this sounds almost verbatim what cryptoanalysts do to break some encryption protocols with known seed states or other 'side band' information.
In several places that I've seen, there have been specific lists of demands that the protesters have given. In general, they center around bringing to justice those officers who have participated in brutality, and effectively reforming the police in their municipalities so that these situations cannot arise again.

Frankly, wherever the police are instigating greater violence, they are making more certain that the protests will go on longer and get more publicity than in places where they're being allowed to be peaceful.
> Unit, Corps, God, Country'. I don't know if that's official, colloquial, or even widely true ... but ... I found it really deeply wrong to put 'unit and corps' above 'god and country'. But I never got the chance to discuss it with him.

I'm pretty sure "unit corps God country" is from A Few Good Men, and the Marine motto is God Country Corps, which makes more sense.

That minor point aside, I agree with you. The "bad apples" defense doesn't stand up to the mass resignation in support of these cops.
They were telling him to back off. But the old man still approaches. Whatever motives you have, it's better to comply to law enforcement first.
There certainly exist people who in their last moments sacrifice everything for something greater than themselves. If that's not an absolute sacrifice then no, there probably isn't.

But in the small we are always compromising on some things in favor of others. A principle can be upheld at great cost until it finally gives way. One principle can crumble away in favor of others very suddenly.

> Pattern-or-practice cases — which are separate from individual incidents of alleged wrongdoing involving officers — were a significant pillar of the Obama administration. The Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division during those years opened 25 investigations into local law enforcement agencies across the country, and enforced 14 court-approved consent decrees mandating reforms. A Washington Post review in 2015 of such interventions found that they led to modernized policies, equipment and training, but produced mixed results on the use of force. Civil rights leaders say they are a necessary tool — and one that Trump’s Justice Department has essentially abandoned.

Probably? There is a fair bit of overlap between cable/fiber and radio in that both are mostly QAM, multichannel based. Radio tends to have a worse SNR and a couple other tricky problems tacked on top.
They don't "just work". Whether it's Logitech or Apple mouse, my cat laying in front of the pad breaks the connection. (Not enough to disconnect, just adds jitter)

When playing games, wireless keyboard/mouse introduce enough latency that twitchy platformers or competitive shooters are impacted. (Unless you buy super expensive game-oriented device)

Bluetooth devices are terrible... by design because of Bluetooth and its problems. Special dongles don't function well when plugged in on the back of monitors and sometimes need manual "replug" to register after a reboot.

Then there's battery replacement / charging.

I think there is a different way of looking at it: how replaceable is he and what he has built?

The truth is -- most of Facebook's value comes from network effects, not the actual technology itself. If Mark Zuckerberg never existed, it is highly likely some other platform would have been created -- the knowledge and skillset he has is not that rare. many other platforms existed before Facebook to let you post pictures and chat with friends.
It's not even that effective. Spammers just pay people in bangladesh to do them.
I mean, yeah, obviously the law is not a perfect guide to what is moral or just.

My point was that in many cases, the police are not even making it up to that standard. They are breaking the law and their own rules in order to punish the protesters for daring to challenge their (the police's) perceived right to be above the law.
I will say that law is not given to us by deity, but rather by the society itself. The protests suggest that the law is no longer within acceptable range for society, but the administrators of the law, for whatever reason, chose not to address it.

Add to that the protests appear to have popular support and the issue of curfew becomes largely irrelevant. I am not arguing legality here.

You can believe it, they are really good at advertising and marketing. They know the arena very well. Ad Ops is their biggest dept, if I had to guess. Everything they do is intentional with an end goal of getting a market share of the ad industry. It’s huge. They want a piece of it, and you’re right, who can blame them.
Your website is fun to view.
It doesn't work under my normal setting. I've to disable the dns proxy and brave shield to see the ads. Surprisingly, it's not random ads, they are coherently related to marketing service.
Why is this even on HN? Leave this stuff to google news. The great part of HN is that it’s an amazing space for tech news, rather than political, sociological, or world news.

Deviations like this just bring down the original purpose and integrity of going to HN.
Yes, newspapers have been printing/selling the equivalent of clickbait and "fake news" for as long as newspapers have been around. People like this and it gets a lot of eyeballs. Newspapers like USA Today/New York Post/Daily Mail etc. do this to at least some degree and do pretty well for it.

That being said, many of the top-circulating newspapers[1] don't trade on simply reporting the "most-engaging" information. People read the WSJ or NYTimes because they're trustworthy and tend to have a high standard of journalistic integrity, deeply investigate issues and challenge powerful interests. (If you don't believe that's true you probably don't read the WSJ or NYTimes, which makes my point for me...)

Facebook and social media in general does the former, not the latter. And then combines it with algorithms that target content at those most likely to be engaged by it, leading to a cesspool of polarization, echo chambers, and inflammatory arguments.

Started making a high-quality version of a niche but expensive board game in Tabletop Simulator, and the IP owner contacted me and offered a 50/50 split if I want to try and monetize it.

Your title is, at the very best, poorly phrased. At worst, intentionally misleading. Whether or not you approve of what they are doing, and regardless of whether what they are doing is moral - they are not "hijacking links". That practice of "hijacking links" specifically means re-writing/modifying existing links on pages that you don't control (hence the term "hijacking" - or taking what belongs to someone else).

A URL typed in an address bar is not "a link". It's a typed URL.

Curiously, your article seems to describe what is happening pretty accurately so it's hard to see why you chose the title you did (other than to be clickbait-y and sensationalist - you are selling a book on the topic after all).

Again, that's not to excuse what they are doing. At all. But link hijacking has come to have a specific meaning and this isn't it.

TL;DR - Link is short for hyper-link. There are no hyper-links involved here.

It works but is super super inefficient, and actually using hydrogen directly as a fuel also has huge drawbacks, primarily due to the fact that it is prone to detonate vs simply combust. Unfortunately I don’t believe hydrogen is going to ever be viable at global scale unless it’s simply used to synthesize artificially produced petrochemicals, an even more inefficient process.

Right, but it's a legitimate reason to offer "no returns" (which on eBay actually means "SNAD only").
One thing to note is that the frequency bands specified only apply to US 5G. Huawei's 5G spectrum uses a much lower frequencies: Around 3.8GHz. This falls in the mid-range spectrum, which makes it cheaper to deploy, because the waves travel further and you need fewer towers. That is the attraction of Huawei, for most countries (outside of the US).

> Should, but accidental breaking changes are a thing.

They're a thing either way. If a library has a security update that breaks your app, your choices are to have a security vulnerability or to have a broken app, until somebody fixes whatever is broken in either the library or the app. The only good option is to fix the breakage quickly -- or do better testing to begin with.

> Plus flatpack more or less solves this by having standard runtimes (base collections of libraries/dependencies that flatpack apps target) that get security updates.

At which point they might as well be their own packages so that you only have to install one copy of that version, since they're the same for every application anyway.

> With Snap, developers explicitly ask for the permissions they need and the approval process evaluates if it makes sense for that app to have those permissions (and by default or not).

This is not a solution to the hardness. If the developer doesn't understand the permissions model well enough to know to ask for a given permission they need, the app is broken. If they ask for permissions they don't need, either the approvers need to understand the app well enough to know it doesn't need that, or they approve permissions it doesn't need.

It doesn't get you out of needing somebody who understands both the app and the permissions model well enough to be able to correctly specify which permissions the app needs and doesn't.
Because that wouldn’t further the narrative necessary to win back the White House. Some of the most violent cities with some of the most corrupt police forces have been Democrat-led for decades. But somehow Republicans get blamed for Democrat mayors, their puppet police chiefs. Omaha is about the sane size as Minneapolis but it happens to have a Republican mayor. San Diego has a Republican mayor and has far fewer police incidents per capita than LAPD. It’s worth challenging commonly held assumptions, because from my chair, all of the most violent and corrupt cities are deeply Democrat.
> Doesn't make any of them look better but an interesting wrinkle.

Of course it does. The pragmatic decision not to be without a legal safety net (which even a hypothetical innocent cop would want) is way better than resigning at the first hint of legal accountability.
I wasn't arguing that at all, only that things appear to be much better for SEs in Toronto than Vancouver for some reason.

And I've said elsewhere in thread, I'd happily move my family down (I'm a US citizen) if I thought it was possible to buy health insurance that would guarantee coverage for all issues. I've heard too many stories of insurance companies refusing to pay for emergency treatments because the hospital happened to be out of network.
But it's sad that apparently the reason it is "better to comply to law enforcement first" is not because they will arrest you but because they will pummel you.

Right now I do nothing for emissions.

It happens inside a barrel that reduces a lot of emissions.

The emission will appear near the nozzle and the hopper. As those are the only opening in the barrel.

Once filament exists the nozzle, after 10inches, it goes into a water bath.

In future tho, I'll add HEPA+Activated charcoal filter lid on the hopper and use same for nozzle but with an extraction fan.
As per guidelines, wouldn’t this be considered “off topic”?

“ Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic.”
First I'm very skeptical of the claim that there is any "natural" productivity scale out there. Nobody is born productive or "beyond help", unless they have some sort of mental handicap. It all comes down to what you learn and the good habits you form over the years.

I also don't think you can totally separate a "personal productivity weakness" from "tools". Tools and systems, when learned and used correctly, can go a long way in correcting bad habits and mindless counter-productive actions. An example that has already helped me a lot is the very simple act of writing out only 2 to 3 most important tasks for the day and make them easily visible with some form of stickies. This helps me focus my energy throughout the day instead of letting me wander around mindlessly with whatever free time that comes up, since those 2 to 3 tasks always stay on top of my mind and direct my actions, and are very easy to keep track of. This way I actually get things done constantly every day instead of obliviously letting time slip by while feeling lost amid the dozens of TODOs that I have in org-mode/todo software.
