This is a great take, but also one that will change rapidly as the US is reaching Europe- and japan levels of aging. After precipitous falls in birth rates, it is becoming increasingly difficult to expect that children will be taking care of elderly parents, especially for a long and protracted "third age". This is a default expectation in the current generations but i think younger people have different expectations for themselves and their children's lives.

This presents an opportunity where technology can make (and is making) a difference. It is also the reason why we want Longevity biotech to make our healthspan equal to our lifespans. We are already seeing the need of this during the COVID shutdowns

I had a similar problem once and being an atypical programmer and did not know the term edit distance.

Some research gave me Levenshtein distance and from there I first used a naive perl implementation before finding that you could extend MySQL and found an example and implemented that.

As an average/below average engineer with 15 yoe who wouldn't pass SV-style interviews no matter how many leetcode problems I solve, I've only had to use algorithms a handful of times in my career.

One of the most memorable was when I had to build a graph from sql statements, parse the sql statements, determine the dependencies between the sql statements by traversing the syntax tree and ordering the graph based on the dependencies so sql statements on each level could be evaluated in parallel.

It was one of the most fun and interesting projects I've ever worked on, it took me a few days to come up with a Java implementation and after a few bugs I rewrote it in Scala. I think I ended up with some kind of DFS algorithm if I recall, I might give it a shot at implementing it from memory and putting it on github.

Thank you for creating this site - it looks like an excellent piece of work. I hope you find a way to make some money from the work, enough at least to pay the hosting bills.

A couple of questions:

1. I found a way to add a tutorial link to my package's page, but the wider documentation seems to be limited to whatever is put in the README.md file. Is there a way to add links to additional documentation?

2. You mention elsewhere in the thread possibly adding download sizes to the package page. This worries me a little because NPM appears to list the full size of the entire repository (which for my library is 44.5MB - the repository includes a lot of demos, assets for those demos, inline documentation, etc). Whereas the 'real' size of the minified file - the one which would be served to websites - is only 302KB (78KB zipped). If you do include download sizes in a future version, can I ask that you also include a way for maintainers to flag misleading information?

[Editing to ask]
3. How can I get my package to show up in the search results, when people search for 'canvas'?

No!!! Of all the names in the world why this. "Hey bro, let's chat on Element" ,not quite a ring to it.

The hardest problem in computer science strikes again!

Matrix,Riot and Libolm are epic projects, I wish them all the success but man, even Riot was a hard sell as a brand. I would seriously be dissapointed if it loses popularity over this. I don't think the project maintainers understand that their core users/fans are waiting for a product they can sell to friends,family and coworkers.

People who don't know tech rely on branding/brand reputation and word of mouth reputation to decide if they are intetested in even trying out a product to begin with.

Which of these is unlike the others?

1) Signal

2) Telegram

3) Element

4) Whatsapp

Hint: The theme is messaging and communication.
You could add a custom chatbot to your site, with all the information about the unique product, whenever a customer comes to look for other products they will also get information about the unique product even if they did not search for it.

Setting up a custom AI chatbot though is so annoying. There are so many tools out there but they all seem to miss a feature that you REALLY need.

Most times they all force you to pay to have that “Powered by….” imprint removed and AI doesn’t work.

How about a done-for-you solution?

I don't get why you are getting so many downvotes - perhaps offtopic?

Anyway: the lesson is that unless you own the top-level domain, you should never think of "your" name. Otherwise you are just getting different leases from different properties.

Do you want to be echelon? Register the domain (ideally on ENS, so that no government can take it away from you), adopt federated/decentralized services and push for adoption of OpenID/WebAuth.

Your comment doesn't mean much if your company is on Slack. The "Slack" name can present issues for other people just like "Riot" has presented for you.
Yup, that caught my eye as well. This is the loophole that will probably continue the stupid events like app getting removed for a screenshot of reddit app showing the post with ISIS in it.
Is there a web API for changing passwords? Would be nice if these passwords managers could help you change passwords when they are found on a list through an API (that would require the old password anyway).
They can not face retaliation for the whistleblowing, but can be held accountable for their crimes.
perhaps have some ai that detects lewd comments and autobans those users. Oh and the standard thing of checking both ip and mac addresses whenever people log in or register against a blacklist of IP's/MAC's used by banned users.
Any particular reason for switching every 6-12 months and is that common practice? Trying to get a sensing here.
I really like the Karma system. I think Karma as a way to decide user permissions is interesting (as is the case on hacker news). I also wonder if karma should decide the “reach” of a tweet, that way more respected users get to amplify their ideas and trolls do not. Downvotes is a contentious one, as we want to foster active debate. The issue I see with downvotes is that their ambiguous - you might downvote because you disagree with the statement OR because you don’t like the tweet.
And, crucially: minority viewpoints actually tend to be accommodated as larger parties lobby smaller ones to support their agenda. Coalition government is a lot better than the see-saw you get otherwise with one party undoing what the previous one did.

There was this post not too long ago by lordleft which I thought was really beautiful and resonated with me.

The decision to have kids is a lot like the decision to continue living. There is no logical basis for it. Or rather, any latticework of logic you erect to justify this choice is based on a foundation that has nothing to do with reason. It is an emotional and spiritual desire to live and love, and give more life and more love to the world.

That's why I when see people engage in complex rational calculations about the utility a child may or may not bring into their life, I feel like they are missing the point. Of course people ought to be thoughtful about the decision to have children. And there are very good reasons to abstain. But in a sense they are not grasping that having children is a profound act of hope.

After loosely reading over the regulation, I can't see anything limiting it to games in particular. I realize that the GI.biz article would focus on the impact that it would have on games developers & publishers, but as a mobile application developer my self I am more interested in the impact this will have on the EU ecosystem overall on both stores.

I spent less time building SPA with Svelte than React.
On the other hand, I've seen a few Java applications that leaked memory (and one case of leaking file descriptors) because developers had mostly gotten away with not thinking about resource ownership. Removing data races isn't the only advantage of refusing to generate binaries when the programmer appears to need to think a bit more about ownership.
I had been thinking about a sort of human prompt, like a time window to take back a tweet with a prompt to consider if it’s kind/necessary. Won’t do anything about bots, since I imagine it would just be a tick box or something, or no action means you’re happy for the tweet to send
But the rest of HN can see italics just fine. Don't use caps. It is annoying.
I have to add on the loneliness piece. I worked/work in long-term and medical/surgical settings. The number of people who have health problems that are exacerbated by their lack of social connection is staggering.

There is also a second nuance where those who follow similar health patterns of the former had immediate family that were “functionally absent” for a large portion of their life (primarily mental health or result of psychosocial trauma).

There is also survivorship bias here too, in that I treat patients because they are sick and I don’t get to see the “lonely” individuals who function well in the community.

My decade of experience as a registered nurse made me fear in spending my twilight years only to be “beloved by my nieces and nephews”.

Will Bitcoin’s Next Big Move Be Towards $10,500 or $8,500?
I'm literally in the same boat as you on this one. I've had random chest pain for years (27 now, started when I was 22). I've had my heart imaged, tested, basically everything that they can do non-invasively (no angiogram, odds of me having a problem is less than the odds of the test itself killing me). All the tests come back telling me I have a perfectly healthy heart for a 20 something. It's just never enough.

It's driven me insane for years. At this point they say I have acid reflux that's in part triggered by anxiety, but I've never had the probe done (they run a probe through your nose and down your throat. Push the button when you feel pain and they can see if it correlates with increased acid or acid backflow). Doctors put me on medication for it but it hasn't done anything for me. Everytime I see the doctor it just sounds like he's annoyed at me being back.

Part of this whole thing is that I'm very overweight, it's something I've struggled with my whole life, and it got bad in college and now my adult life. Needless to say I missed out on your typical college social experience. Being alone with your thoughts can be a dark place.

Knowing I'm at higher risk for these things and seeing many of the HAES people dying young has me very worried. My dad's boss's son died at 28 earlier this year from undiagnosed heart issues. He also struggled with weight his entire life.

Going to start seeing a therapist and see if it helps and possibly consider anxiety medication. The fear has been paralyzing and I need to get over it so I can start making changes to my lifestyle.

I don't know what your hiring experience with this is, but there is an entire market around "coding interviews" where people will learn how to pass these. I found algorithmic interviews completely useless to assess junior engineers because of how many just learn just to pass interviews, but then have very little experience with real problems.
This is a good question - I found recently that I was following more political accounts and maybe if I used it just to keep up with my industry/hobbies I might have a nicer experience. Does anyone find twitter is a pleasant/supportive place though? (Genuine question)

I live in a small studio apartment in a city, don’t do drugs, and don’t have a VR headset. I’m very happy even when working from home, the two things that bother me the most are fear of losing my job and fear of losing my girlfriend.

Maybe some people aren’t happy without having a yard? There are plenty of plants around here though and there’s an entire block that’s left as just trees and grass for people to walk around in. Maybe without that I’d feel the same way.
After various HN threads about this company, and taking a tour on the element.io website, I'm still not sure what this is about to be honest.

I understand it's a chat app, but

- The pricing is really confusing (seems like the app is free, but having an account is paying ?).
- Is this a professional thing, like slack, or more of a whatsapp-like thing ? Trying to do both ? The whole differentation point seems to be based on the Matrix thing, but it's not really clear why is that important ? (I don't typically care about the backend of the app I use).

I mean, the front page says :
"All-in-one secure chat app for teams, friends and organisations. Keeps conversations in your control, safe from data-mining and ads. Talk to everyone through the open global Matrix network, protected by proper end-to-end encryption."

So, the starter is what everyone says. "Safe from data mining and ads" is good, it makes me curious about what is the pricing then, and I wouldn't mind paying a cheap price for a correct messaging app. And then there's this Matrix bit, and I don't even know if it's good or bad. So I went to the pricing page (which doesn't exist, but there are "plans") and here, well the app is free, and I can get my account hosted either somewhere free, or either on the Element Matrix servers, where it should be safe from eavesdropping ? But with proper end to end encryption, it should be safe everywhere ? Or is the app by default not end to end encrypted, but hosting it somewhere makes it so ? It sounds really weird to be honest.

So really, good for you for renaming, but I don't think it's what will make me change (even though since whatsapp is facebook owned, I'm ready to migrate myself and my whole family on something else once the ads are there).

Exactly, the plot is misleading. It suggests a dramatic "jaw-dropping" change, while in reality the curve is slowly crawling towards and below 2.

There is no reason to not require parenthesis. No reason.

This is what I hate about Ruby, not having parenthesis gets a bit confusing and adds a couple of gotchas

> equality is a very American value

Is it? The USA has one of the least egalitarian societies in the developed world.

Assuming you're talking about equality of opportunity: given the ridiculous cost of higher education and healthcare in the USA (as opposed to most developed countries, where it's nearly free to attend even the best universities or get treated in hospital), do you really believe there's a high level of consideration given to equality in American society?

First StartUp was amazing, super professional people. Run out of money and laid people off (StartUp still lives and grows now)

Second StartUp was led by mid-twenty Bros and not the culture I wanted to be part of.

Third StartUp led by people bought in by a bigger corporation. Had no idea how to run a company. Best team I have ever worked in but worst business I ever worked in as well. Almost everyone left after being there for 6 months.

Fourth StartUp ad tech industry. Learned a great deal, solid co-workers, but had enough of "We are a cool StartUp" vibe and went freelancing.

General speaking, I don't dislike StartUps, but oh boy I am too old for this now (35 years old).
Cases where ` 's are used for quoting are a big example of this. Typing `example` turns into èxample` on my keyboard because the backtick key is a modifier for the next press. To type `example`, I need to type:

* On Linux: ``example`

* On Windows: ``<left>example

Some editors even turn the latter into ```` when I double press the backtick as no symbol renders prior to that.
