What is “slow”? I mostly do JS and .NET, and I just started working through the rust hello world. I was shocked that I had an exe in around 0.2s. I haven’t worked on a large project so maybe this doesn’t scale, but of the 3 (at least for hello world which is fairly trivial) rust felt super fast. I saw mention of Roslyn so perhaps the issue is more around incremental compiles for IDE feedback? I didn’t see any issues with the VS Code language server (and I love the auto format on save, I set this up with prettier and I don’t want to go back to a place without auto formatters for everything. It’s great DX.)

Buying land would technically be a capital expenditure where you can only claim a deduction if the land becomes less valuable. If you're talking about more "normal" business purchases like computers or equipment you get to deduct a portion of the expense every year as it depreciates. So if you buy a $2k laptop for a developer and in 1 year it's now worth $1500 then you can deduct $500.

For a business that really doesn't make a difference. If you have $1 billion in revenue but spent $999,999,999 in order to generate the revenue then your business income is $1.

Or the complete logical extreme. If I sell a dollar bill for $1 that's not income that should be taxed.
> It's annoying to be persecuted based on political ideology.

At this point been pro-Trump isn't really an ideology, it's a cult in all but name.

I've got conservative friends (UK style conservatism), I disagree with them but I can respect their beliefs because I can see how through a different lens I could hold their views, for the pro-Trump folks that lens just gets further and further away.

At this point I'm not sure what Trump could actually do that would surprise me - I mean I'm old enough to remember people mocking Bush for doing/saying the odd dumb thing but Trump went full-idiocracy inside 4 years.
I use a Rakuten Kobo and - luckily - my local library's books are accessible via a service called OverDrive.

It's the predatory practices of the publishing industry that stop us from giving our ebooks to a friend to read: DRM stops us from sharing what we have purchased, and in many jurisdictions it is illegal to circumvent.

> Would something decentralized help?

I've been thinking about this a bit lately, and I don't see how. People are going to game the system, and decentralization just means they can play the game for longer, or in all new ways.

How do you establish a pattern of bad behavior by a person if that data is balkanized across a hundred independent nodes? They can feel out the line between ban-worthy and nuisance and if they happen to overstep a little bit a few times, they can still annoy 90% of the userbase. You have to have centralized moderation information and infrastructure.

People who don't want to be moderated, therefore, don't want this kind of decentralized system, and the maintainers would be fools to offer it. What they want is their own system, but someone else to do the work. An open-source Reddit engine, perhaps. When they discover how expensive it is to run, especially with people acting up, then a few of them may become self-aware.
You mean like, right after nazi took power and moved to
violently suppress all opposition?

Yep, many many people joined at that particular opportune moment and it has zero to do with ideological closeness. Which did angered hard liners and true believers. Through I doubt the 70% number.

(And yes communist were violent too, which would made them suitable for SA. They were not that ideologically close nor they shared demographics.).
Anything decentralized will create a vacuum of power to be filled by rational actors.

Kind of like how Bitcoin is decentralized but controlled by a handful of miners on China.

Wouldn't the system somehow need to detect the virus at incredibly low PPM, and rely on the virus being in that section of the room? Especially with coronavirus, which travels via water droplets and falls to the ground fairly quickly, you could have a spreader walk through the room without it hitting the device.

I'd also expect that the list of viruses that are worth evacuation over is much much shorter than the sum of all viruses in the air at one time. (Looked it up, looks like 219 viruses that can even just infect us[1] vs hundreds of millions [2])

> Manipulating the DOM is not irrelevant in the sense that pretty much the only way HATEOAS could be useful is in generating a user interface that an intelligent agent could navigate.

That's patently wrong, and ignores basic RESTful standards such as HAL. The DOM is irrelevant and meaningless in the context of HATEOAS. There is no DOM at all. There is a resource, and the resource is tagged with link relations. That's it.

Just because the word Hypermedia" pops out this does not mean HATEOAD has anything to do with HTML.

> Only an intelligent agent could meaningfully navigate from one state to another, which is roughly equivalent to a clicking on URLs on static sites, which is how most websites work or at least used to work.

This is where you're objectively showing where you're getting it wrong. REST I'd about resources and resources representations. Your "URL" is just a specific resource, and that resource is tagged with link relations which point to to other resources. It's the resource that is linked, not the content of the resource.

> When you manipulate the DOM to implement interaction without any "hypermedia links",

Again, you're showing where you've been getting it wrong. You do not manipulate any DOM to "implement interactions". You just get the link relations of a resource. That is all. Some HATEOAS formats even pass link relations through HTTP headers. The concept of a DOM is entirely meaningless in REST. There are only resources, resource representations, and link relations. That's it.

Again, just because HATEOAS has "hypermedia" in its name that does not mean it has anything to do with HTML.

For a book-length exposition on this theme, read https://www.amazon.com/First-Break-All-Rules-Differently/dp/....

The book didn't intend to be a book-length exposition. But the common insight that they found among good managers is that people come lop-sided. They have strengths and weaknesses that they aren't going to change. When you try to make people work on their weaknesses, you're virtually guaranteed to fail and make them miserable in the process. But instead figure out how to tailor their jobs to their talents and they will outperform. If you can pair up people with complementary talents, the combination will do much better than either person could on their own.

The book then includes example after example from industry after industry. For everything from housekeeping in a hotel to being a bartender to data entry. For each of these jobs, there are people whose talents will make them ridiculously better at it.

(Side note. That is the only management book that I recommend to non-managers.)
I think it'll be a good thing, Reddit and most Silicon Valley companies hostile to free speech are going to decline as competition as alternatives that truly appreciate the constitution of the country they operate in are born.

I actually like how Reddit moderates for the most part, they do keep things relatively "clean", but they are also thoroughly corrupt politically, horrendously biased in favor of anything left wing and beyond reform. Outside of a few minor subs, I don't "browse" reddit anymore at all. Everyone fair and honest who visits /r/politics or /r/worldnews knows by now they're being lied to, constantly and without relent, so only one type of reader still goes there willingly.

So where should I go from Apple if not into the waiting arms of Google/Android? Is that better?

This isn't actually a conversation specifically about Apple if you recall. It is a conversation about all such companies. And yes, your defense of Apple is a little cringe-y. Why do you need to defend such a behemoth in a conversation that is decidedly not dedicated to them? Per the parent comment--Why does HN obsess over the actions of these companies that are categorically not for anyone's benefit other than their own? That was the original question.

Your comment makes me wonder if the tech agile model would work in movies or TV. Imagine if you got bites of a show every week and based on your feedback, the show evolved it's direction. Sounds interesting and strange.
How about, polarization is highly compressive and humans have limited time and mental resources to devote to the many competing concerns they encounter.

Those issues that they sense are important in some broad abstract game of value creation and control, but that don't have an obvious impact on their immediate sense of agency or leverage, get heavily and "lossily" compressed into extreme min-max caricatures or silhouettes as a heuristic compromise between the infinite nuance/complexity rabbit-hole of rigorous intellectual honesty and very finite human capacity for attention.

I agree that git is a nightmare with a user-hostile interface. Keep backups outside of git and just bite the bullet and learn it. There is no middle-ground, you are either floundering in a storm or master of git but it's everywhere so you have to get through the learning curve. If you are using the command line I recommend 'easygit' (eg) (https://people.gnome.org/~newren/eg/) or 'gitless' (gl) as far saner interfaces that don't hide git from you but make the interface simpler and more consistent.

Quite convenient how you look the iOS marketshare at the global scale :) Is there an organization regarding antitrust cases that works on a global scale like UN? Last I checked the U.S. antitrust commitee looks at the U.S. economy, not how many iOS users are there in Kenya, India, etc.

It is only fair that you look at the iOS U.S. marketshare, and what would you know, they have over 50% ;)

ClickFunnels vs. Kajabi – The Best Funnel Tool Is ___?
The ASCII character | is a solid bar, although some older fonts, such as the PC font, will have it displayed broken in half. If you are working only in ASCII, they are two representations of the same thing, but if you are working in extended character sets, they are different, and only the solid one is the ASCII one. Many keyboard layouts are ASCII only, and show the broken bar (I suppose this might confuse people who are unaware of it if they are not working with only ASCII, but anyways people have also asked where is the lowercase, before, so both of them can be confused by some people).

Apart from politics, one thing I hope that comes from this is the people learn to own their online identity instead of leasing it from social media companies.

For an individual, set up your email on your own domain. Even if you use some other service to host it for you, as long as you own the name, you can move it wherever you want.

If you host a community, have it on your own domain. Maybe initially it just redirects to a reddit subreddit, but your users should get in the habit of going to MyCommunity.tld instead of reddit.com/r/my_community

If you make videos for a living, have at a minimum a website that has a list of your videos and always tell your users that that is the canonical place to find your videos.

Own your online identity. Don’t lease it from a social media company.

I would never move back in with parents. Firstly, it would be a privilege to have a loving relationship with parents and which I don't have. They were abusive people and the world will be better when they rot to nothingness. In any case I would consider living with parents while you're close to 30 or older as a disadvantage in the dating world. I can understand moving out of the city to save money but how much more are you saving while living with parents unless you're mooching off of them?
Hate to say it, but I've been using Amazon for 2 decades simply because I buy a lot of specialized books - the kind that aren't in most physical stores, or French language books (the selection here is very small).

> Find an instance of a threat of violence, regardless of context

Doesn't the fact that finding instances of violent rhetoric among alt-right posters, regardless of context, sorta make the case that maybe this is an endemic problem and not a purely political suppression?

There are a lot of really hateful people among that group, in ways that just aren't true for other politically aligned communities.

I mean, the Dirtbag Left folks have their assholes too (note that the Chapo sub was banned too), but they're comparatively rare, notable in isolation, generally have names associated with them, and (really importantly) tend to be shamed and controlled from within their own communities.

The alt right is a bunch of assholes, plus a bunch of people who make a habit of tolerating assholes. That's a toxic combination if you're Reddit.

The static linking section here feels a bit weak to me: if a Rust compilation fails, it usually happens before linking starts. On the other hand, if your program successfully compiles, do you really care whether the link time happens at the end of compilation or on program launch?

Unless run-time linking is faster, they both result in the same delay between the end of code generation and the first execution of your code. Static linking says you pay that cost once, in the compiler, instead of every program launch, of which there will be at least one.
See the legend. Things are ranked from "Good to bad", (Urban stress, unemployment) and proportion white population is right there in parallel, screaming "White"=="Good".

There are a number of other lesser reasons, including conflating regions of high urban stress as "Evil" or "Angry" instead of just unhappy[0]. The face visualization just implies too much of a value judgement on the data -- too correlated with the issue (yet misrepresentative) to be a good idea imo.

[0]: Even happy/unhappy may not reflect well at all this variable (again because that's a complicated human emotion, not a simple function of "Health crime and transportation factors").

Edit: I think it's also not necessary to call the map creator (or maybe the map itself) racist, this implies some kind of intentional discrimination (and is quite strong imo), but it does have to me grave mentioned problems.

> Reddit is still very much anti censorship. //

That doesn't appear to be true.

Something like r/watchpeopledie, they don't have to censor, and it seems contained. I wouldn't want to visit it, not more than once, it may not be healthy in general, but taking it down seems to be "just" censorship?

Other than pornography they seem to have markedly cleaned up and taken a much more advertising friendly focus; seems much less to have the dingy back alleys it once did (but maybe that's a biased view).

Haven't they closed subreddits to quash some radical conservative talk?

Are you part of the Reddit administration?

Rightly or wrongly there appears to have been a lot of censorship over the last couple of years.

I don't see why the API should even allow enumerating devices. Put that behind a browser dialog. Webpages don't get to enumerate directories/files on your system - they pop up a file picker dialog. The same should happen with device selection. Once you've granted the site access to a device, it can ask you to associate a name with the handle, and provide whatever shiny device selection / device management UI it wants.
A way this could be solved would be to provide websites with an interface that appears to be the system with no devices attached (or dummy devices in the case of devices that are always present, such as a power adapter) and only connect the real device when the user give permission. If the website thinks it has permission, but finds no device, it must have to fail gracefully or at the very least ask the user to connect a device (like a midi keyboard).
