Yea it's not useful. This could be the result of positive forces such as more kids going to university instead of entering the work force (improvement in educational attainment) and/or people able and choosing to retire earlier OR of very negative forces, as they seem to imply.

Rolling the statistics up to the population level is not the best way to look at this. They should have broken out the trends by age bracket. Pretty shoddy journalism.
> This doesn't address my question though

I did address it, though the answer is disappointing: Only Google (or someone with Google's private business data) could give you that number. But it's absolutely much higher than they'd like you to believe. I just can't tell you if it's 30%, 60%, or 90% of their revenue, the public doesn't have access to that information. I'm confident that how ever much you believe it is, it's higher.

> yet it seems that we should be holding Google for a higher level of accountability

On the contrary, repealing Section 230 would place Google on the same level of accountability as broadcast companies. Section 230 carves out a special immunity to prosecution and lawsuit that only applies to online platforms. Broadcast companies are already held to all of the laws and risks that Section 230 is protecting Google and Facebook from.

Basically several compilers are bundled (node sass, webpack and Babel) so that you don't have to download them as a user and their version is stable for the app. You can use a tool like pnpm to only ever have one copy of them on your system but these aren't deps that negativity impact the app.
I don’t have any data on what people will prefer in that situation, and am happy to cede the point. However, this is only the case in when the employer has all the leverage. When I have to fill a hard to fill position, I don’t care about local cost of living. This is especially true for contract and consulting work
I got a sublet for a fantastic price from a AirBnber who wanted to get out of a zero-income property.

40% off the market rent. Oh, and because he didn't actually live there, he left everything. Dishes, pots, a bed.
I don't think it's that simple. When a user goes back to image search results, is it because they are unsatisfied with the result they clicked on, or are they looking for even more, hoping to compare? And when a user closes out instead of doing back, is it because they got what they wanted or because the results were so garbage they gave up? Based on my own usage of image search results I don't think you would be able to tell when I was happy with the results or when I wasn't. But you can probably tell that my usage of image search went down when it started getting shitty due to this spam.
The Next Wave of AI Disruption: Millennial and Generation Z Startup Pioneers
Some 100+ comments on here and no mention of the horrible impact having more of these giant trucks around is going to have on the climate. This is technically interesting, but experience shows us that most of these trucks will be purchased by suburban dwelling office workers who commute 90+ minutes/work in this thing, and use the plug in feature 2x/year tops. We really need to stop seeing enormous trucks as socially acceptable and need to start seeing them as sociopathic.
Yes, needles. There were needles in the parks and on the sidewalks in Brooklyn back in the early '90s when I was a little child.

The remark was ironical.
Fishing from a boat is actually really easy. The hull is quite rich in small crustaceans and flora. This attracts bait fish, which attracts larger fish. A carrier at anchor bunkering would have all sorts of animals swimming around.
My 18 year old son has been trying to get a job for 2 years, without success. All of the jobs that used to go to high schoolers are now going to adults who are working low end jobs to help make ends meet. And then the quarantine hit making it even harder to find work.
I'm basically agreeing with literally everything you are saying, I just want to expand on certain things.

> RV vs RCV

These terms are too similar and really just confuse people, which is why I push back against it. I try to use "ordinal" a lot, but it is best for places like HN but not when I'm discussing with family. RCV makes people think that this is the only way you can rank people.

> STAR

Anyone who is advocating for STAR has my approval. It is the preferred system in my mind. I want to plug my longer post that has a lot of links and expands on all the topics you described

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23705413

> Fair Vote frustration

I think this is a style of argument that is increasingly becoming more common and is destructive. Pushing the your argument past the point of validity in an effort to make it stronger. Their use of broad classes is a gross mischaracterization. When they discuss Condorcet methods they discuss several types, lumping together the worst features from different ones. But they ignore the good methods like RP and Schulze. The comparisons are unfair. But then again, they aren't trying to appeal to people that are informed on the subject, they are trying to appeal to the masses which are completely unfamiliar with the subjects. But I do not think this justifies the outright lying and mischaracterizations.

> Spoilers and Strategy

In my other post I actually link an example of where IRV fails, and it is the specific type of spoiling that we are about: when similar candidates spoil (e.g. Bernie and Biden, not Stein and Biden). IRV doesn't solve this (but FV claims otherwise).

For strategy, this is the argument that I get into with the Condorcet camp (though we're clearly on the same side and these are nuanced friendly arguments not hostile). To me STAR is good because its range of VSE is more compact (i.e. resistant to strategies). The Condorcet camp claims that there is enough dis-incentivization to not vote strategically therefore just maximize VSE (VSE is only slightly different between STAR05 and RP). So for anyone listening on the sidelines, this is really what we're arguing, minutia. I'm certain everyone in the Condorcet camp would vote for STAR and everyone in the STAR/Score/Approval camp would vote for Condorcet (specifically RP) if given the chance.

I'd also like to mention Equal Vote, which advocates for STAR. https://www.equal.vote/starvoting
They don't. The idea is that when it does wear out, replacing a cable is much easier than replacing a connector.
I was not aware that Yubikeys no longer can be firmware updated. My impression was that they just don't permit user firmware modification by policy but that is clearly wrong.

FIDO Security Keys are cheaper than FIDO2 Security Keys which is what I'd expect from what I wrote, they don't need any storage.
There were significant quantities of racism accusations in social and mainstream media, as there also had been for years during the money laundering in casinos debacle, that most politicians and right thinking news reporters also wouldn't touch.

Who knows what's really true, but there sure seem to be a lot of correlative coincidences, with similar stories in many different countries.
Because modern web development is a friggin' minefield of browser support matrices, front-end development languages with experimental features, and aging specifications that require the use of preprocessors for simple things like variables and functions. Almost everything in that 106 MB is a preprocessor of some type that's designed to either make developer's lives easier, normalize code to a widely-supported standard, and/or optimize said code to deliver the smallest possible bundle to end users.
For reference, a full install of Windows 95 is about 50MB.

There is something deeply wrong with this entire industry.
The hybrid is available only with the 3.5L twin turbo V6. When Ford introduced the 2.7L twin turbo V6, that engine became the best seller.

Once they get the $$$ from selling only 3.5 hybrids, I hope they offer the hybrid in the 2.7 - and then they'll most likely see a huge jump in hybrid sales.

> By that logic you'd buy a vehicle with no trunk, since you're hauling around that "big empty space." Or a vehicle with only a single seat for when you have none or fewer than capacity passengers.

It's a compromise for all vehicles obviously. Ideally you'd want one that didn't have those empty seats - but that's not practical. If you want to minimize weight/drag/cost/fuel consumption while at the same time hauling x cubic feet and 5 people, then that is an optimization problem. I don't know what the optimal solution is, but I doubt it looks anything like the traditional pickup (A cybertruck possibly comes closer). The optimization problem becomes differeent if you add more constraints, for example ability to tow X thousand pounds.

> an outdoor trunk space from an indoor one, and claiming one is wasteful without actual justification. If anything an outdoor trunk has less vehicle side panels, glass, mechanics, and weight therefore less drag:

Drag is a shape coefficient, not a weight coefficient. Most modern cars, even SUV's, have drag coefficients in the low .30's. Most pickup trucks don't come close, even in marketing values (One of the lowest claimed values is the Ram 1500 with .36, and the Cybertruck will be lower). An F-150 is north of .50 in testing [1]

Your point is valid that a large portion is server side only (which is still a concern for my use case). But note a lot is omitted from my gist, there are 768 packages.
Sleeping on a train, perhaps, is not the same as having the stamina to work for another 2 hours.
This is why I never understood the concept of "transportation as service" replacing privately owned vehicles. Sure a ride hailing service can work well enough for single urbanites to get around in a dense city. But when I go somewhere it's super helpful to have my own car as a secure storage area. And I want to leave a bunch of stuff permanently in my car so it's always available rather than wasting time loading and unloading a rental car for every trip.

From a calorie perspective I don't think that's true. If you grow all potatoes which are one of the more efficient calorie/acre crop you have approximately: 90 days for 1 crop at ~15e6 kcal/acre. Nimitz class aircraft carrier has a surface area of ~1 acre and a crew of about 6000 people requiring ~10.8e6 kcal per day. So after 90 days of growing potatoes you would have about one days worth of food, or enough to feed ~66 people continuously. Of course you could always fish...
Young people generally aren't in charge of the government and also don't vote nearly as much as old people. The old people in charge and voting to keep them there are from a time when a job was a thing to be proud of, when a hard day's work would get you a living wage.

It's a little strange how out-of-touch so many people are with the new reality, but it is not so surprising given how little Americans tend to interact with the world outside their personal space.
Same. I’ve had few issues with anker and when I do they always send out a replacement immediately. Anker is worth the cost and still cheaper / sturdier than OEM.

This from the FT [1]:

> Analysts have been quick to note that the impact of the boycott on Facebook’s annual revenues — which topped $70bn last year — is likely to be negligible, since three-quarters of its advertising earnings come not from the deep-pocketed brands leading the campaign but from small and medium-sized companies.

Of course hindsight is easy. Does that mean we shouldn't make use of it?

And yes, like the travel ban, which clearly was the wrong solution for the problem.

I don't blame the Trump administration for failing to predict the future, but I do see that they willfully ignored bad news over and over again and in fact continue to do so even today, which is completely unconscionable.
Yes, seems likely. It makes it look like you're trolling.
Yeah, the air compressor got my attention too, but a little 1.5hp pump isn't a big deal. Surely no one's going to plug in their old full size piston pump and try to keep up with a plasma cutter and a die grinder, right?

I do expect the duty cycle's going to end up on the high end of the scale for consumer level generators if it's on Ford's warranty liability. 80% would be awesome, anything under 60% is going to be a headache for everyone.
I'll add to the anecdotal evidence.

I live in Denver and just resigned my lease without much in the way of increased negotiation power. I run into two main issues here:

1). Extreme information asymmetry. While many of the properties are owned by different investors, many of those same properties are managed by a significantly smaller subset. Those property managers have a cartel like effect. For instance, they can strategically hold back supply to keep a rent floor and 'establish' extremely draconian lease terms under the guise of 'market forces.'

2). Draconian lease terms. This is a subset of the 1st point, but it's extremely difficult to price the market when you're required to give (move-out) notice well in advance of the actual lease date. Because the market here is so fast, you're basically jumping in blind-folded at what might be available when you go to look for a new lease. Great for landlords you can fill a spot in a moments notice, but horrible for a tenet who's trying to understand the cost of such a decision.
> All this said, I do not like interview processes that have large homework requirements.

Wish I could just outright refuse those but between 4 months of looking for a job (I was looking in a rather niche zone) plus the pandemic draining my savings 5-7 months before they were supposed to run out, I really had to work a lot for free...

Lessons learned, and I completely agree with your post.
I think the better data point to track would be craigslist and local private facebook groups that represent what someone is actually going to charge then whatever the Zillow marketing spin is putting on it.

Not really an answer but I'm curious to see why you think those incidents should have affected the stock price of FB?

I mean I wouldn't expect the average long-term investor to be bothered by something like that.
Someone with a full-time job making $10 an hour (1) makes about the same minimum wage as France; (2) is either eligible for Medicaid or pays $67/month for healthcare through an ACA exchange; (3) pays almost nothing in taxes. It’s definitely a livable salary for a young person in a low cost of living area. (Half of people who make under $10 an hour are 18-30.)

Where I live, an hour outside DC and maybe 30 minutes to Baltimore, you can get a 2BR apartment in a nice new building for $1,000 per month. Share that with someone, and a person making $1,500 is spending the recommended 1/3 on rent. $67/month for healthcare on an ACA silver plan, and that leaves $900/month, which is totally doable for a single person, or better yet each half of a young married couple. And frankly, around here you’d get $15/hour just working checkout. In places that have a significant number of $10/hour jobs, rent is something you spend a few hundred a month on. You can eat at a sit down place for under $10.

waves Hi! I made what I'm pretty sure was the first game for ArmorGames, in fact it was still branded GamesOfGondor, since he originally wanted to commission all LOTR-themed games.

Dan was a really nice guy, very friendly and enthusiastic. Wish I had done more with him in retrospect, but the artist I was working with suddenly lost interest while working on the second game, and things kinda fell apart.

The first game is still up on Newgrounds: https://www.newgrounds.com/portal/view/210883
American with a question here. In the U.S. you can legally change your name. What would happen if a Dalit went to court and petitioned to get his named changed to Gupta or Sharma?
Agreed, and Cybertruck for the win. All the benefit of a pickup, with a big back seat and enclosed storage - with a multitude of power sourcing options (including just parked in sun, if the solar cover becomes a thing).
Seeing lots of evidence indicating that prices are falling in cities and it’s very hard to sell.

Meanwhile in the suburbs around cities the market is booming in certain segments. Lots of people who vowed they were always city dwellers are suddenly keen to live in the burbs. Hearing lots of stories of houses in desirable suburbs getting multiple competitive offers the first day they go on the market.

In the rental space in suburbs and vacation communities heard lots of stories of places being rented at above market prices sight unseen by people just looking to get out of the city for the summer/year.

Things will probably pick up in cities once things start to return to normal, but like a lot of things it’s likely going to be a very long time before things get back to where they were before all this started.
Someone once commented here on HN that Apple engineering departments get boxes of Anker cables delivered all the time since they’re so much better than Apple’s own. I wish I had saved the link.
Good point. I meant advantage for companies (or individuals) to base themselves there (rather than eg in China), not advantage in terms of benefit to China.

Some fraction of this change is attributable to the $2 trillion CARES Act that pays workers $600 per week, contingent on them not working. I assume that the change would still be horrific if this effect is deducted, but that it isn't insignificant.
I'm curious to hear more on this. I have a number of USB-C devices and have never seen breakage on the internal port (only fluff buildup).

I had a Macbook where the power cord got stepped on, the cable head turned 45º or so and continued to function with no port damage whatsoever.

I also don't like JIRA itself, it feels bloated from the get-go.
Pushing back on this a little bit :) - A semi-truck's UI (dashboard) is only a tad bit more complex than a car. The operator training part has to do more with the domain of knowledge (how to back up the trailer, for e.g.) than with the UI. IMO UI can be "complex" and yet understandable if the layout is logical, everything is labelled and the domain is already understood. We all know what Turn on bluetooth means. Whether it is hidden in 4 level deep menu in a touchscreen or immediately accessible with a toggle switch makes no difference IMO. In fact, I would argue that a toggle switch is easier than digging into Menu > Vehicle Settings > Entertainment > Phone > Bluetooth. More importantly, it is discoverable.

Please don't dig too much into the bluetooth thing, it is just a example that I want to use to make the more general point.
Actually, I guess I was wrong about node_modules not being included in the slug -- it's just that the slug is compressed so node_modules don't take up anything close to their stat size. One common gotcha is that if you have large non-code files in your git repo (binaries/images/gzips/etc), those will end up in your slug and they don't compress well so they'll add a lot of bloat. If that's the case you can use a .slugignore file[0] to tell Heroku to exclude them. Good luck!
