>So they did the next best thing: they changed to please the market

Slow down. This is the hackernews equivalent to "yada yada yadaing" over the real stuff. You say points big and silly you can't backup. I work at a business news organization, and know someone who just left WSJ. Now, think again how you'd tell them face to face they're niche? You're gonna tell them how the media business works? Like what are you going to say?Are you claiming FB is a new organization? In fact, are you really saying anything at all?

Those issues are important, but what I find most concerning about your reply is "the way our economical system work".

You're either not in management, are an incredibly crappy manager, or don't know anything about it. You do it for the money like some lame reach for that Tesla R&R refrain to argue for lower intellectual (ethics/morals) standards ... that's the beginning of the end for organizations ... what you fail to get is that other organizations who are not so easily sold your sale of good will be still doing the news and fighting the good fight.

Those who understand money the best and make the most over the long term know best money is NOT the measure of all things.
The article is keen to stress that going super aero on the descents for amateurs is best avoided.

I second this. A lot of descending skill gets learned in teenage years. Those that grow up in hilly areas enter adulthood with innate ability that those who grow up in flat areas struggle to emulate. You can't just take chances.

For absolute amateurs wanting to descend like the kings of The Tour on charity rides the trick is to have properly inflated tyres, so that means using a track pump and not some small hand pump. The track pump has a guage and the tyre has a figure to inflate to.

On a charity ride with properly inflated tyres and some ability to take the correct line it is possible to cruise past people that are in a full aero tuck and pedalling furiously. The chances are that those you pass have all the gear but haven't got that tyre pressure detail right.

Clearly this won't work when riding with people who are pro or have ambition to be pro. But there is great joy to be had when freewheeling down a hill on a boring flat bar old man's bike with mudguards and steel components to pass fully lycra-d riders with fully aero carbon fibre steeds.

Road and track races are all about closely packed pelotons going around tight turns very fast. Recumbents have very poor cornering compared to standard bicycles, and would not be safe. The performance advantage of most recumbents is often overstated as well, because the rider is in a reclining position at maybe a 30-40 degree angle.

> You're literally saying the press is acting against their own best interest and purpose which is upside down.

Are you suggesting that them acting a certain way shows that acting that way is in their best interest (because they wouldn't act that way otherwise)? Are you sure they know what cause of action is in their best interest? Are you sure they consider "their best interest" to be the same you consider it to be?

Is the 24/7 news cycle hype in the best interest of "the media"? Was the war-drumming with barely any skepticism about the Iraq war(s) in their best interest?

> Second - we don't need the press to find wrongdoing. It's all there for you to see. Where is the scandal?

What? The public at large gets their information from the press. If the press does not report, it does not happen for large parts of the public. That's why taking control of the press is usually the first thing during any coup and for any authoritarian state.

Which sites?

Anyway, almost everyone else would mind. Especially if there was no option to revert to normal behaviour.

That sounds like the worst of both worlds. If people want Explorer in Windows 10 behaviour - can't they just run Explorer in Windows 10?

If people want Chrome as it was yesterday, they've basically got no option now.

> But URLs aren't necessarily always the best solution for navigation.

The Chromium devs demonstrated their lack of interest in being able to navigate via URL / location bar a half decade ago when they changed the default on all operating systems to be single-click in location bar to 'select the whole address'.

I'm beginning to think they are not our friends.

I like how evolution if you can call it that figured out first that fetal haemoglobin mitigated the problem.

The fix used CRISPR (and a gene engine?) to implement the fix on other people.

It's like version 2 of what human bodies figured out first naturally.

This sounds like something that my dad or other people with COPD/IPF could use. If fetal haemoglobin could grab more oxygen it would benefit people with low lung function. Sort of like Star Trek "Trioxin" they loved to use.

The skill of these "descent specialists" always reminds me of racing skateboards down hills, which is a combination of the "descent aerodynamics" of cycling and the "edge of grip" of racing cars.

I participated for a while, and it is a really fun way to access the "edge of grip" of racing cars, which isn't really accessible in cycling (bicycles don't often survive a loss of traction on the front wheel!)

If you're interested, here is a nice intro [1] to the sport, and an example of a [2] final race heat in a European Alp setting, with similar aerials to cycling coverage. The skill is the combination of drafting, strategy, cornering and straight line speed.

Not for serious web development (dito for Safari): the developer tools are atrocious compared to Chrome, the battery life experience is way worse with FF, and while Chrome is a notorious CPU and RAM hog, FF is worse.

That combined with both FF and especially Safari being way behind in terms of standards adoption/development really sucks at the moment. Chrome desperately needs competition.

Not sure what "dragging" means in this context, but Facebook's response seem surprisingly appropriate in this case.

"Dail posted a tweet on June 2 criticizing his coworker, writing that “intentionally not making a statement is already political."
I read WSB daily for the laughs, but that place is very dangerous for traders as the group think over there is usually very intense and also very wrong. It will warp your view of the market, so you have to approach it as a place for memes and humor only. If I have a trade idea, I usually like to make sure that it's something that most of WSB would disagree with, and those trades almost always work out.

BTW, I had no idea Shkreli was a member. That's really hilarious, and really fitting. I wonder how much of his money he made on options (if any at all).

Side topic: the rental car industry is a dinosaur walking. Just like Netflix and video-on-demand put Blockbuster out of business, Uber and rideshare companies are slowly putting the kabosh on rental car business.

I can't remember the last time I really needed to rent a car. Maybe for the random site-seeing roadtrip. But vacationers aren't rental company's bread and butter: it's business travelers. And business travelers are seeing much more convenience from rideshare than from rentals. The hassle of renting a car, parking, tolls, gas, dealing with insurance and liability, and just the shenanigans of rental car companies is not worth the hassle.

It took a solid decade before the impact of video on demand was felt on Blockbuster, but it was inevitable.

Just how COVID is bringing the water out of shore on the low tide, all it is doing is exposing already weak companies. Those that fail can't simply blame COVID, altho it's certainly a contributor. For some, the writing was already on the wall.

Not entirely. Equity can be modelled as an option on a company’s assets, struck against its debt. This is fine for equity (and the equity component of fulcrum securities) in a bankruptcy.

Interesting. Other comments in this thread indicate that the only extension that can do this has its ID hard-coded in the url parsing code to be whitelisted.
What I really like about subcontracting, is that you are not carrying the full risk for the project. However, the client is still the client, and this carries with itself both a freedom (no loyalties beyond the contractual) and an added responsibility (it's your client, and you want them to be happy).

It's a style which suits me, and gives an added motivation. Note that if the work itself is extremely boring, this still doesn't make it all hunky-dory. There must be a balance here.

Personally, I like the smaller-sized projects where the iOS part can be done either by myself or with another team member. This way, I have enough overview to wrap up the project in a decent time and look for another if it's not to my liking.

While we often create a mental map between some sort of logical hierarchy and the segments of the url this doesn't have to be the case. A specific domain should be authority on this, not he general-purpose tool used to access it.
He explicitly claims that rioters sometimes outnumber both the national guard and police. I think it’s unlikely that such a statement makes sense without drawing no distinction between protesters and rioters. Saying that the ‘peaceful’ shouldn’t be confused with the ‘roving bands’ seems more rhetorical, or even aspirational, given that he’s not really trying to distinguish himself (and this is clear throughout the piece).
@dang, Having this on the front page of HN will trigger some people’s eating disorders.
Yup sounds like he was the one harassing his coworker. I say this as someone who supports the overall BLM movement and finds Facebook to be a pretty nasty company.

But I can’t condone coworker harassment. At the end of the day, you can’t harass another human being into publicly saying they’re against harassment. There’s some twisted irony there.
This is changing. I've been doing power measurements as well (just didn't make the cut of this blog post), and the 1060 is surprisingly power-efficient in its low frequency modes. It's also generally the case that the GPU is always active in its role running the compositor.

This explains a lot, I (almost) never visit twitter or reddit.

> might think the smart thing to do is to short the stock

Shorting bankrupt companies’ stock is unusually risky. Short sellers have to deliver the stock to close the trade. Bankrupt companies have a habit of ceasing to trade when their equity gets wiped out. This has left short sellers stranded with no way to close out the position, a costly situation to exit.

This is an interesting and subtle point about doing "software on GPU compute." You are in complete control over what gets computed, and are not at the mercy of the hardware's fixed function pipeline for stuff like rasterization rules and sampling patterns for antialiasing. So I think portable results pixel to pixel are in fact viable.

Of course CPU rendering is always more straightforward than GPU, the higher performance comes at a significant cost in complexity.
Hertz lawyer, for one. And I will lose some nominal amount, or maybe I made money, depends on when the index rebalances. But NYSE racing to delist in the face of this move and Hertz own lawyers comments are enough that no, in objective reality, there’s many reasons why this isn’t just some simple issue.
From the Hertz bankruptcy motion (via Money Stuff/Matt Levine): "246,775,008 shares of common stock" or another way "Hertz could potentially offer up to and including an aggregate of $1.0 billion of common stock"

Or with self-driving cars the rental industry will become the next uber since they won't need a driver. Everyone would just lease a "car privilege" from a rental company which (or others) would be picking you up whenever you need it following your patterns a fleet of cars will be shared among more people. This would reduce pollution, waste and traffic in large cities.

In addition to being appropriate, I think it is timely too considering the madness that is going on. People who don't hold a public office have a right to be silent just like they have a right to speak up. Badgering them to issue political statements and then involving them further when they refuse to, is nuts. I dislike Facebook pretty much most of the time but I'm glad that they took this step.

Maybe someone needs to do to rental cars what Uber did to Taxis.

If I could order one on my phone, have it be ready or turn up, and avoid all of that complexity over insurances and tolls then I would probably sell my own car and use that.

I’m sure the rental companies have some digital stuff, but I generally associate rental cars with queuing at an Avis counter for an hour after a long flight, lots of paperwork and getting hit with fees etc. For exactly this reason I tend to stick with Uber on business trips over rental cars.
"most people are barely offering human empathy to the homeless. "

Enough with patronizing. They are not children or robots with no freewill. They have made decisions in their own lives and they need to own up to them. Not holding people accountable makes them more like children, and they are more likely to stay where they are FOREVER. They will all stay on the streets until old age and die there if you think it's not their own fault.

If you can't a afford a city, then MOVE. Guess what though, in cities like SF, they didn't.

They stayed, destroyed SF for decades, and now it is very clear... SF has made its choice... to become the home for the homeless, as a mass exodus occurs.

I would say that removing URL is also bad UI - if user sees that URL changes with navigation, then it is possible to guess that it can be copied and pasted to give a link for current page.

If the URL bar would offer full URL for copy/paste, but show only the domain, then the feature of full URL copy/paste is hidden.

Not him please. Even otherwise I feel not wise to follow a single guru if your interests are more academic otherwise it generally leads to a more cultish experience. There is no single canonical way to 'enlightenment' here, each one can find their own.

What I am doing - starting with Upanishads (aka Vedanta, literally the end part of Vedas, where you get the gist), there are 10 major ones which come with commentary by Adi Shankaracharya. Remaining are not minor in the sense of importance, just that you get to them once you grasp the major ones first as they come without the authoritative commentary. They are overall philosophical in nature.

Next come the Puranas. Again there are about 8-10 of these. These contain most of the stories or the 'mythology' which we heard in our childhood and read in the books.

There are many more but I guess I'll start here and see where it takes me.
that's entirely wrong though. Because it's not about cutting the calories of your meals in half - it's about having longer gaps between your caloric intake times, so your body goes into ketosis.
According to NNT (Black Swan etc.), investing in stocks is in some ways even less predictable than a casino. Your possible maximum win in a casino is precisely limited (if the house did its math), while with a market a black swan can get you up in an unbounded way.

However, the market as a whole tends to be stable, so that one can invest in say index funds for modest but reliable long-term growth. I might be off, but as far as I can tell the question now is whether even that stability is becoming past tense now.
So this move is a bit like... Say, crowd funding to get out of bankruptcy?
> You can reduce all these to drawing triangles.

You can, people have tried this, and it sucks. The main problem is that the conversion of Bézier paths to triangles is a hard problem with lots of conditional branching. Even when you do it, there is the other problem of rendering triangles with really good antialiasing, MSAA forces a compromise between performance and quality. By contrast, piet-gpu does an exact-area calculation for antialiasing.

So it's not a question of whether you can do it, but whether it works well, and approaches like piet-gpu absolutely stomp triangles.
