Great idea, strangely calming.
While I agree with this overall, this list in the middle of the article was unsourced and presented as "just-so":

> Here is a list of features that are objectively beautiful, and their absence, objectively ugly. Facial and body symmetry; proportional anatomy, height (particularly among men); a full set of straight, white teeth; a full head of hair; clear, evenly-toned, taut, skin; a well-toned physique; proportional features; large eyes.

Of these, the "well-toned physique" is probably historically incorrect[1] - excess weight signified wealth and health for much of human history. Likewise, "a full head of hair" is somewhat gender-specific - super important for women, but many men can rock a bald head pretty well.

Overall, I think beauty ideals are somewhat more flexible than this article assumes. This is especially true for romantic attraction and especially in some communities.

[1] Searching for this yields a lot of spam, best I found after a few minutes: https://www.cnn.com/2018/03/07/health/body-image-history-of-...
Not really, because your beauty strongly depends on hair cut, skin care, clothes you wear, the way you move and so on. How fit you are and how healthy you are. In case of women, the exactly right make up.

The same person can look beautiful and ugly depending on all of that.

> To get to the point, your argument is that PWAs strive to be just like apps, but run in the browser instead of the OS. This is simply not true.

I'm confused, because it's supposed to be PWA's major selling point. Google says as much in their documentation [1], as do many commenters in this thread.

> If you want back the web of old times, just documents and links, then you can pick up any one of such initiatives. Reality however is that PWAs are a successful model: just go to a URL and use it.

Don't get me wrong, I don't hate web apps in general. On the contrary, I happily use them on a daily basis. However, I don't like the direction PWA seems to be heading. Acquiring more "native" capabilities is one thing, though I won't be going over this again. Another important point is that it doesn't fit quite well with the "browsing" aspect of browsers. Web apps are nice, but they're hardly the only kinds of websites I visit. I visit quite a lot of random websites every day, many from HN, and I want almost none of these websites spinning up Service Workers or asking me to turn on push notifications. Web apps being more capable is nice, but I don't want them at the cost of a more spammy browsing experience.

I do want the web to be more capable, but careful design and consideration is equally as important when it comes to making the web a better place. I feel that many accusing some browsers of "holding the web back" are overlooking this point.

2. A service restart is always going to be less risky than shipping a new application (which would also require a restart as well).

3. In an ideal world I’d agree with you. However in many places it is and even in places where it’s not, not hardcoding passwords helps provide defence in depth.

4. Harder to do it securely. Your solution leaks all passwords to all environments and is possibly the worst workaround to the problem (I’ve seen CI/CD inject the correct passwords, which seems the best approach but if you’re going to those lengths then you might as well use a secrets management service)

Sharing one of my favorite quotes on this topic that James Clerk Maxwell was said [0] to tell his students:

"In this class I hope you will learn not merely results, or formulae applicable to cases that may possibly occur in our practice afterwards, but the principles on which those formulae depend, and without which the formulae are mere mental rubbish. I know the tendency of the human mind is to do anything rather than think. But mental labor is not thought, and those who have with labor acquired the habit of application often find it much easier to get up a formula than to master a principle.”

"FOMO" makes an entirely natural market process sound problematic.

That's not a psychological trap, just an efficient market.

Not sure how this is on the front-page. The article chases to debunk something that is only used as a metaphor for the capacity of the mind. IMO the idea that we only use 10% of our brain is oversimplified way to get the attention of a child when conveying the minds power. For example, you only activate 10% of your brain when reasoning a difficult math problem, or recalling a memory. I don't think anyone ever asserted that 90% of your brain is turned off.
Clicked through and the username of someone who'd replied in the thread on the front page was a racial slur. That's enough to turn me away. I'm no prude, but allowing someone to drop a bomb like that in their handle is a big broken window. Doesn't instill hope that I'd have a lot of positive interactions with the folks in this community.
Very good point.

I would agree that HN is far too big for moderation alone to save it, though I hadn't quite put that together when I wrote my first post.

I think pg's original guidelines managed to capture enough of a cultural ideal that much of the original culture has been preserved organically by the users themselves (though I'm not qualified to speak to the culture of the early years, or how much it has changed since then).

You and the other mod(s?) have done a great job of being a guiding hand, and of understanding that it's too big for anything other than a loose guiding hand to be relevant, from a moderation perspective. You can remove things that shouldn't be discussed, show egregious repeat offenders the door, and encourage people to behave well and be restrained (in large part by example).

Twitter is so much vaster, and grew so fast, that even a guiding hand and good founding culture could not hope to save it. I suspect the way its design encourages rapid-fire back-and-forth also really hurts the nature of interaction on the site.

The way we evaluate people as beautiful depends on race, they are not independent variable. If people inherently perceive white features as more beautiful or female features as more beautiful, then beauty perception will be impossible to distinguish from those other biases.
Well, there's a lot of nuance here so I'll speak quite generally in that the United States could certainly afford to wait 20 years to see a return on investment (we do this with many, many programs and policies even today - NASA for example, food stamps, education) and I'd also argue that a country to the extent possible would tend toward valuing the ability to produce goods in the event that the supply lines of goods being imported is shut off.

Further, you could make investments now that exceed current capacities and capabilities today with an eye to the future.

One of the biggest takeaways from this for me is that PayPal has awful security when it comes to compromised accounts. The only reason compromised accounts would trade for prices that high is because hackers have a high success rate of stealing funds from them, and a low chance of getting caught.

Credit cards and bank credentials being worth comparatively much less means that hackers don't have easy ways to secure the funds - either there's a high risk that the transaction is reverted, or there's a high risk that the hacker gets caught and goes to jail. You can tell it's not just an effort issue because the value of the accounts barely scale as the amounts in the accounts increase.
You're reading it as "beauty is the greatest privilege, and we never talk about it" but I'm pretty sure it's meant to be read as "out of the privileges we never talk about, beauty is the greatest one". Race and gender are not part of the category "privileges we never talk about".

I've heard it's used a lot in EE design software (PCB design, or FPGA as you mentioned).

My experience with Tcl is as part of Altair's suite of mechanical simulation (FEA, MBD, etc) software, which is quite popular in aerospace and automotive.

It has its warts (associative arrays) but it's still a neat little language. EIAS actually works pretty well as an abstraction tool. I'd take it over VB (eg, excel VBA) anyday as a macro/automation language.

Really? I disagree. Those who do not have beauty, end up compensating for it by exceeding in some other trait, and in the end, these other traits, or the ability to exceed in these other traits is the privilege, those not endowed with beauty get. So, it balances, and sometimes to the benefit of those not endowed with beauty.
I have two explanations: one optimistic and one pessimistic.

The optimistic is that the Fed is prepared to unleash the runaway inflation (you can keep the stock market records if you want... it’s just the dollars that will buy much less) — and the markets are currently busy of pricing it in. That’s fine... more or less.

The pessimistic scenario is that the current administration is determined to keep the stock market alive and kicking at all costs, whatever means necessary, until this November — and then it wouldn’t matter this much anymore. They think they have the resources for buyouts before November... however, the UK and Japanese governments somewhat famously failed to uphold the market in very similar scenarios, which ultimately led to decades of stagnation.

I wonder what it will be this time.
Not OP, but I've recently worked with AWS Parameter Store a lot, and I've been very happy with it so far. We store all configuration (including secrets) using it.

We started by using https://github.com/segmentio/chamber/, but because of the way we decided to structure our secrets we decided to write a clone of it ourselves (https://github.com/micvbang/confman-go).

In practice, we have a client written in Python that grabs configuration from Parameter Store and puts it into the process' ENV variables at startup. This allows us to avoid vendor lockin in the rest of our code, since we still just fetch all config from the environment. I like it so far :)

I think the tricks are more like "use dynamic dispatch instead of static dispatch".

O1 vs O3 is probably a fair way to do things. Some people will do that for debug builds, to get a mix of reasonable performance (for tests) and reasonable compile times. I'm not sure how meaningful the difference is going to be between O2 and O3, it's been a long time since I'd looked into it, and back then O3 wasn't really a thing people did.
It's a little complicated because all these metrics are like trying to compare apples, oranges, and bananas. So, it depends, and it's not necessarily the best metric to gauge the valuation of the markets.

It's price divided by earnings.

For price, I believe it's the sum of the market capitalization of all the companies in the S&P 500. If you divide by shares outstanding for all the companies, then you get price of the S&P 500 (price).

For earnings, is the sum of all the companies earnings (Net Income) in the S&P 500. If you divide earnings by shares outstanding, then you get earnings per share (earnings).

I couldn't tell 100% if he was "in" on the scam or not - has he really never thought of why they tell him to go to distant restaurants, never returning, and why the card is always declined multiple times, and why the cash back is THAT HIGH? He did give me a referral as if he was trying to sell this idea but I didn't get very far in their signup (first question: my full name. pulled the plug there) and he introduced this topic as if he was "working" on this "technology" that I had to ask a dozen questions to pry open before he even got us introduced to his "credit card" (either he was really working on it and wanted to keep it secret from us actual techies, or knew something was sketchy and didn't want people to know he was doing shady stuff, or he genuinely thinks he is beta testing some legit technology and getting rewarded for it but didn't want to immediately go into detail)

But if he isn't in on the scam and does pay off his card, funny enough, that must mean all of his money is going directly to the crime ring. Two birds with one stone!

The effort to assign a total ordering to various "privileges" seems like a fools errand to me. Wouldn't these characteristics differ in magnitude from one individual to the next also? It is almost as if everyone is a unique individual combination of a multitude of characteristics.
Do you feel that way about every differential advantage, such as money and family support in childhood, or is there something unique about beauty that causes people to compensate better?

No one is suggesting encouraging or tolerating theft of intellectual property. People are _discouraging_ vigilante justice against IP thieves.

In this instance, because it harms consumers (an innocent party).

So what do you think the definition of 'privilege' is?
All new machines I've provisioned myself recently have been NixOS:

- Getting out-of-tree software to work takes a a little bit longer than on other distros, but once you do it, it's very reproducible.

- The OS itself is centrally configured in a functional way, but individual user environments default to being stateful. I find this to be a good practical divide. Easy roll-backs of the whole system and a very small number of files to reproduce a setup elsewhere

As far as what I've used in the past:

Mandrake -> Gentoo -> Debian -> Gentoo -> NixOS

The second Gentoo represents a long time (about 14 years out of 20). I switched to Debian the first time because the "stable" Gentoo portage got broken twice in under 6 months. Debian was a complete no-go for me because of how conservative it was though. At the time the Linux kernel was getting hardware support at a very rapid rate, so using a kernel even a few months out-of-date could mean no support for your hardware.

I've tried Unbunto many times but every time I have run into something that flat out didn't work, or needed more manual work than Gentoo to get working. One time (in the past 5 years) I had to construct a modeline to get graphics working. I knew how to do that, because everyone in 2000 knew how to do that but in 2016, that just felt primitive.

Other wonderful things that were default in Ubuntu were: when other people log-in, my Xorg session would restart. Adopting pulse-audio when it was still alpha-quality software. The whole snap thing people are complaining about now just seems like par for the course with Ubuntu.

It's possible that Ubuntu is a useful distro for moving things forward (I like pulse audio these days), but I don't want my workstation to be a beta tester for it.
Assuming (as one conversant with how financial institutions of this size’s IT departments work) this is most likely a system for running contract valuations; a five second lag between when the valuation is requested (process launched) and when it completes is entirely acceptable if it can be scheduled for running at regular intervals or on triggers if required, and five seconds is fine for the occasional interactive (user-initiated) dalliance.
