Reuters also wrote an article about this statement, also without mentioning the specific consequences. I suspect he didn't name them, but NPR has discussed the consequences before with other experts.

Dr. Dimitri Christakis, who directs the Center for Child Health, Behavior and Development at Seattle Children's Hospital, and is the editor-in-chief of JAMA Pediatrics, shared concerns about abuse and about children's mental health:

> Mental health and social-emotional development, Christakis argues, have been less discussed: "The social-emotional needs of children to connect with other children in real time and space, whether it's for physical activity, unstructured play or structured play, this is immensely important for young children in particular." A new study in JAMA Pediatrics, he says, documents elevated depression and anxiety among children under lockdown in China.

> A third major risk, says Christakis, is child abuse. With schools closed and activities canceled, adults who are mandatory reporters, such as teachers, are less likely to catch wind of abuse or neglect. Hospitals around the country are reporting a rise in admissions for severe child abuse injuries and even deaths — a rise that coincides with lockdown orders. And a sex-abuse hotline operated by the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network reported that half its calls in March came from minors, for the first time in its history.

And in another article, a former Secretary of Education also shared his concern that not all homes are safe:

> I'm heartbroken about the kids for whom school is the place that provides structure and support and a sense of security that don't have that. I mean, for me, as a kid, after my mom passed when I was 8, I lived with my dad. My dad had an undiagnosed Alzheimer's, and so home was this place that was scary and unpredictable and unsafe. But school is the place that was reliable and consistent, where I had positive relationships with adults and peers. And I wouldn't be alive today without those school experiences.

> And I worry about the kids who are in homes where there is abuse, where there is addiction, where family members - as you say - have lost jobs, where family members are sick or passed away.

and exposing those folks to similar risk levels as if the schools had not closed int he first place.

What would make it better? Making the links work the same way as vote and flag?

I'm a bit disappointed in that feature. The intention was for users to browse others' favorites to find interesting things to read, but I've not seen any indication that it worked out that way.
I agree soooo much with this. Like a lot of google products it feels half finished.
It's big and getting bigger, $100B+ / year depending on how granular or wide you want to cast the net.

Check out the Stripe Developer Coefficient report, that is telling from one vantage point. You might also consider https;/coss.media as a subsector. What about tools that help with digital transformation or cloud development?

I'm not sure there is a single report, you more have to hobble things together from various sources.
This article feels manipulative. Invalidating feelings by associating them with drugs and subordinating them to mental focus is missing the mark. Psychologists are not supposed to invalidate feelings. Stating in broad sweeping terms that Certainty derived from mental focus is going to lead you to out of context results is at best a challenge to healthy mental functioning and in reality a pretty solid idea to undermine yourself.
Interesting thread.

Is there a microvm that can run chromium with puppeteer?

I've been thinking that server side chromium might actually turn into a pretty badass application server platform ... security, async, remote debug, webasm for cross platform secure binaries ...

Some efficient infrastructure for deploying is needed -- but should be far easier to create a fast server runtime for puppeteer+chromium than it is to create a generic container execution environment ... -- so the microvm approach seems like the right one for what i want ...
Slower than Jira in my experience.
When Docker for Desktop came out, I refused to move from Docker Toolbox. My reasoning was probably illogical but my view was that if you're maintaining a number of projects, each of which runs in their own Docker environment and some of which had duplicate container names, then having the power to start/stop different Docker engines for each just made a lot more sense to me.

I don't miss Docker.
I catch myself doing this quite often: I read documentation, try a couple of things,if it works,I move on. Now this is all good when dealing with simple things but the more complex things are the less it works. It's like reading learn python in 10 days and then going on GitHub with all that newly gained knowledge and confidence and trying to understand how a large codebase works. Within about 30 seconds you close the browser and binary tears start dripping on your keyboard...
This is good but it doesn't work well enough in my experience. I still spend a lot of time waiting for dependencies to build before the crates that depend on them.
I think they're asking “can you hang an entire x86 system off of Thunderbolt like you can an eGPU, and then have x86 binaries execute there?”

Which, no? Probably? If your goal is to run Windows, it’d be cheaper and easier to just buy a Windows box and then screenshare into it.
Whatever the OS I am using is, be it macOS, Windows, or Linux.

It always feels like I'm working against the OS now that the OS philosophy has shifted to being all things to all people.

If it's Windows or macOS, it wants to advertise to me, or prevent me from launching certain apps or features.

If it's Linux, it's trying to shift me into some ill-thought out use pattern. This is fixable, but at a significant time cost customizing things. Actually, I'm being unfair to Linux, environments like XFCE pretty much stay out of your way. But I don't like where the mainstream DEs are going.
The main thing, based on what we know now, is that virtualized (or Bootcamp) Windows is a non-starter. That's not to say someone won't figure out how to do something hacky with a Surface Pro build or something, but basically no.

Other than that I agree that if you need a system to write/debug MacOS apps that run on Windows, you probably need a MacOS system if you don't have access to one.

Otherwise, if you need a new system, get an ARM and just deal with the migration pains.
On a Mac, Docker runs a Linux VM and the containers are run inside this VM.

On an ARM-based Mac, I would expect an Linux-on-ARM VM and then ARM-based containers, images for which might take a while to appear.
I agree except for compose. I actually like compose and how simple it is, but am curious about container nesting. Could you elaborate? How would dependencies work there for example?
My understanding is that docker on the mac uses some sort of vm to run the containers. Docker Toolbox use VirtualBox and Docker Desktop uses HyperKit.

The Greeks in Socrates's time also shrouded and secluded women in high-status families, for similar reasons as Muslim extremists do today. There was no religious smokescreen in thar case.

But many women in burqas consider it liberating not to be obliged to wear makeup and track fashion. Invisibility can be a power, in context. Maybe everyone should have a burqa on hand, for those times. You can conceal a lot in there that no one suspects.
Their tech was also notoriously unreliable to the point where I stopped using the site because eventually it was more likely to find it not-working than working.

This might have changed in recent years, but most users were already gone when I last checked.

Hi all, developer of Refined Hacker News here! Happy to see that it has been posted about again. I had initially posted it last year as a Show HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20173974 and my philosphy behind the extension (as mentioned in the my comment) is:

> There are many extensions out there that add quite a few features to Hacker News, but they also always do one thing, which I have realised, is a slippery slope: changing the minimalistic design and style of Hacker News.

> I created this extension with one thing in mind: I am NOT going to mess around with the overall design or style of Hacker News. It's sacrosanct.

Thanks, I'm up for discussion! :D
There is go jira cli https://github.com/go-jira/jira not sure how good it is
It syncs very well for me, too, but there are missing features (for example, you can’t post a status on the desktop).

Unnecessary dig at Bootstrap and jQuery.

There are plenty of websites with great UI built using bootstrap. I don't understand how using jQuery has anything to do with the UI though. It's just a wrapper around JavaScript.

Note that this is ~50% reduction in volume, roughly the difference between a loud and normal conversation. Noise cancelling headphones are more like 75%-87%, the difference between a loud conversation and a whisper.
> The trick is to get five series

I thought the trick was to do 6, so you’d have more than 100 episodes and trigger a bunch of stuff about extra royalties and syndication. At least this is what US television authors seem to see as the Holy Grail.
I think the market for that is tiny. I don’t think all that many Mac buyers care all that much about Bootcamp or Docker.

If, within 6 months of ARM Macs coming out, we have Chrome, the Adobe suite, and Microsoft Office running natively, that will cover the vast majority of Mac use cases.
It's my. . .favorite.
No one is typing 100WPM in a terminal though. If you're writing a document use a word processor that's optimised for input speed more than your terminal app, or use a faster terminal app with fewer features that slow it down. Leave the terminal apps that can only handle 50WPM alone so the rest of us can have the useful stuff.

"I think the evolutionary explanation we often hear are mostly horseshit to be honest and wouldn't even make sense since humans need decades to mature."

There is overwhelming evidence for those explanations, both scientifically, anecdotally and empirically -- just take an average looking 25 year old male and make him ask 100 random women on the street if they would like to have sex with him and I guarantee, there will be 0 willing women.

Then take an average looking 25 year old woman and make her ask 100 men if they want to have sex with her, and I also guarantee, 80+ men will be willing to do so right then and there(not in public, obviously).

In any culture, in any country.
Norway is special.

Norway has no domestic car industry (not even major component suppliers) and about 100% (yes, you read that right) taxes on cars.

Electric cars are exempt from tax in Norway, so it doesn't matter if you buy a $20,000 ICE or a $40,000 Tesla. In addition you don't have to pay toll, annual road tax, public parking fees,and may use bus lanes.

So with all these incentives in place, it's no wonder Teslas sell like hot cakes in Norway (other EVs like Nissan Leaf and VW eGolf, too, by the way).

Every other market than BEV is practically non-existent for Tesla in Europe. Even in the BEV market, Tesla is ranked 3rd (with the exception of Norway) in terms of market share - behind European and Asian brands.

So unknown - no, dominating? Hell no!
I thought it was related to encryption for VoLTE.
A recent thing I was learning/thinking about using neural networks to do program synthesis (to try to match some kind of fine-grained data), then run the program and see the actual output. Something similar could probably work for other types of symbolic computation. Let the neural network give you an intuition in a format you can actually check. So its basically there to speed up the concrete search/analysis.
"attention" in this case being an unconscious phenomenon that can but not necessarily lead to conscious awareness.

in the study both the visual cues (possibly misleading) and targets were purportedly presented within the subject's "blind spot". the subject did better than chance at correctly signaling whether a target was presented or not and, additionally, was faster at signaling when the cue was helpful than when it was misleading indicating that attention was being directed to the probable location of the target subconsciously.

in short, it appears that some neurological mechanisms were processing visual cues and directing attention accordingly without any (reported) conscious awareness of the the cues or the targets.
Food, medicine, etc have intrinsic value. That's what the OP is talking about. The US gov't says that the US dollar has value and is willing to back it up. That is extrinsic value.
Apple Xcode. Not because it is bad-bad or worst. Just because all other software I use is better. Firefox, Things, Emacs, etc.
Perhaps, this is what is happen when there are no alternatives. I know about AppCode from JetBrains, but in many cases (like, build system, dependency management, etc.) it behaves just like a wrapper on top of the Xcode or requires to launch Xcode itself.
Yes, advertising, code listings and developer product reviews in those magazines, but I guess now facts only count if they are pasted into some random Website.

The taxes and employment are fine in practice, and in some ways setting up a company in Europe (or at least some parts of Europe) is easier and cheaper than the US.

For something like soup.io, it's loss-making, and has little revenue, so tax and employment are both irrelevant.

What's harder is the investment culture. There isn't as much of a culture of investing in experimental startups that probably won't make a profit. But many parts of the US have the same issue - investment isn't readily available everywhere there either.
Fully agree on Jira. Disliked it enough to start a company to compete with it [0].

Also agree on AWS. Their UI is so terrible and confusing that it makes writing CloudFormation yaml files feel alright in comparison. Been using GCP lately and the UI is somewhat better though still confusing and weird at times.

Google Maps on android. It has such a hostile UI: zoom out too far and the thing you're looking for disappears. Zoom in too far and it disappears again.
Hi, I'm not in the USA and I'm home schooling (since longer than the pandemic though) so I'm not aware of the situation for forced home schoolers, aside from imagining that it's probably quite unpleasant and hard to organize, and I don't know what the health threats are. I'm quite curious though so if you may clarify the health threat for your children?
OK. I get that. (Docker can also run natively on MacOS today which is what I assumed was being discussed. Docker presumably runs just as well in a Linux VM as Linux native other than any VM performance issues today and the parent was complaining about Docker on a Mac.)

But, yes, Docker can also run in a Linux on x86 VM on, well pretty much anything today, and will presumably at some point be able to run in a Linux on ARM VM in the future.
Yes that was the entire point of the other response completely excluding the US and legal aspects. No need to double down.

Your points about social context are great ones and 100% valid, but I want to make a case for "stop thinking just do the task":

---

Often, trying (and potentially failing) to do a task is the best way to learn about it. The key is to be very explicit about what parts of that task you actually understand and which ones you're pulling out of your ass.

This is especially true when creating software. It's super rare to have requirements that are concrete and detailed enough to form a comprehensive understanding of the final design before you start developing it. Instead there are usually parts that have clarity and others that are fuzzy. If you can enumerate those and keep them separate you can often leverage the parts you understand to make progress on those you do not. Writing placeholder/obviously-terrible code to stand in for the unknown parts just so that you can spin up a running system is a great way to do that. Along the way you'll see what patterns emerge, where you hit walls, etc, which is not always easy to imagine with raw abstract thought. And having "working" software that you can play with is a great way to find edge cases and otherwise make progress on those unknowns. Once you've gained a more complete understanding you can replace the placeholder junk with well-designed/actually-thought-out modules.

(Another obvious reason to do this is if your company will literally go out of business if you wait until you have a perfect understanding to launch a product/service, but I think most people here get that.)

I'm not sure how much this generalizes, but it also works well for me when writing. I usually start with a vague understanding of an idea I hope to communicate, then jot down disjointed sentences to capture parts of it. As I do so it gradually becomes clear how things are connected, where my reasoning is muddy, what I thought I knew but can't express so probably don't, etc, and I can use this gained understanding to iteratively rewrite and reshape my message until it becomes something coherent. Sometimes, anyway; other times I don't end up sending/publishing it at all because along the way I learned that the thing I was hoping to communicate was based on a faulty assumption or is not as straightforward as I thought it was. Which is great, because either way I've learned something.

I guess I'd say it differently: "keep thinking and do the task".
In my original comment I defined free will from my perspective.

> For me, the definition of free will is action outside of the constraint of fate.

Either every action of an individual is predetermined or it isn't. I'm not talking about the causal mechanisms of non-predetermined action (i.e., I'm not saying quantum probability / wave form collapse means someone has free will) I'm simply giving a definition that I think suffices for me.

Though even if this definition seems nonsensical to you, I still wouldn't budge from my core argument because it's impossible to resolve any philosophical debate without first resolving epistemological gaps.
The hydrogenic orbitals form a complete and orthonormal basis in which you can expand any arbitrarily-chosen one-electron wavefunction. That is to say that any arbitrarily chosen initial state for the one-electron wavefunction (and thus any arbitrarily chosen electron density) can be expressed as a linear combination of the hydrogenic orbitals. This, in combination with the time-dependent Schrodinger equation, enables us to simulate the time evolution of the hydrogenic system starting from any arbitrarily chosen initial state.

> what does the wave equation of the electron in a hydrogen atom look like during "spontaneous" emission of a photon? i don't think anyone has any idea.

It sounds like you are not aware that this is an entire field of research within the theoretical chemistry community. Theoreticians have been studying spectroscopy for a century.
Agreed. This would make the most sense surely.
> Or, in other words, they don't have their own version of this strategy chart: https://johnaugust.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/disney_cha.... (Disney corporate synergy, dated 1957)

I really love that chart because it tells you so much about the company culture that drew it up. Almost any other company would draw this diagram in some depressingly corporate way, but Disney drew it as a cartoon with little characters running around. It's a corporate strategy, expressed in concrete terms, in a way that demonstrates that the company was still run by artists.

Visual Studio used to be a great perpetrator here. The 2017 version doesn't do it much, but I'm not rolling the dice on the 2019 one as far as I can avoid.

I do sit around waiting for Atom to interpret my keystrokes all the time, but it's never much more than a couple of second.

Oracle's SQL Developer is another one that can't keep-up with the keyboard. It's also not as slow as Visual Studio, but it does break a flow. And it loses characters when it's blocked.
